[06:43] <shahalam> look for default printer
[06:44] <[gnubie]> shahalam: it's my only printer on my ubuntu laptop and at the same time, i set it as my default printer already
[06:44] <shahalam> any one has any idea to use yahoo messenger with voice for linux
[06:44] <bazhang> mark__, you have the link to that installer?
[06:45] <navetz> what does it mean if your command has a return value of 2?
[06:45] <VipOrX> shahalam, gyachi looks to be promising, with all the features of normal yahoo IM
[06:45] <Fredd> hm i have a problem with my keyboard..i need to hold shit and press ´ twice to get ¨ and i need to hold shit and press 6 twice to get ^
[06:46] <ramontayag> If this is not the right place to ask about init, where should I go?
[06:46] <drezard> navetz, 2 errors have occured...
[06:46] <bazhang> Fredd, I'm guessing you mean shift
[06:46] <namegame> lol
[06:46] <VipOrX> lol
[06:46] <drezard> navetz, or a certain error has occured... it should have a return value of 0
[06:46] <Fredd> yeah sry

[06:46] <KaRaBuLuT> HELLO

[06:47] <navetz> drezard: alright thanks
[06:47] <drezard> is there meant to be a script in my /etc/ directory called no login ????
[06:47] <drezard> navetz, what command was it?
[06:47] <KaRaBuLuT>  i think i lost myself:P
[06:47] <emman> My lancard RTL 8187B won't work on my 8.04...any help please!
[06:47] <Fredd> no they are liars..you are in a place where turtles fly and cows goes mooo
[06:47] <bazhang> KaRaBuLuT, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic ; here is for ubuntu OS support
[06:47] <lostogre> ramontayag: what are you trying to do with init?
[06:48] <c0rrupt0r> hmm
[06:48] <Fredd> so is my isse a keyboard layout problem or could be tha fact that im using interpid alpha?
[06:48] <namegame> could be both
[06:48] <bazhang> Fredd, you want the intrepid channel for that
[06:48] <lostogre> ramontayag: what is your question about init?
[06:48] <emman> RTL8187B is wireless..
[06:48] <ramontayag> i sent you a pm, but basically sudo telinit q doesn't seem to work.. coz when i run that the code inside inittab doesn't seem to get executed.
[06:48] <c0rrupt0r> guess im talkin to my self for a while now
[06:48] <bazhang> !ibex | Fredd
[06:48] <ramontayag> when i run the code in inittab though, it's able to start monit.
[06:49] <Fredd> bazgabg: well i asked in there but im thinking this is a keyboard layout issue nothing related to interpid it self
[06:49] <namegame> Fredd, you could try popping in a live CD of Hardy, and see if your keyboard works
[06:49] <bazhang> Fredd, that is where it belongs, regardless of what you guess.
[06:49] <lostogre> ramontayag: what is it that you are trying to do?
[06:50] <ramontayag> i want init to start monit if monit accidentally crashes or something.
[06:50] <c0mp13371331337> Hey fellas, I mostly tend to stick with Ubuntu, but admittedly stray to Windows for gaming purposes.  I currently dual-boot and I have a 250GB hard drive.  At the moment, I have about 20 for /, 70 for C:\, and the rest for /home.  The only reason C:\ is so large is because the games I install take up to 12 GB sometimes.  Using the ext3 drivers available for Windows, would it be possible to just mount /home in Windows and install game
[06:50] <arrrghhh> would someone mind downloading the .TGZ from ntfs-3g.org and seeing if you can extract it?  i get an error.
[06:50] <ramontayag> lostogre: or even during bootup, i want init to start monit
[06:50] <lostogre> ramontayag: what is monit?
[06:50] <count> hi everyone
[06:50] <ramontayag> lostogre: monit is a process monitoring server, but i believe it's more comprehensive. you can say how much memory, etc. a process should use.
[06:51] <ramontayag> lostogre: process monitoring service*
[06:51] <node357> arrrghhh, downloaded fine here
[06:51] <lostogre> ramontayag: Ok. Are you aware that the init on Ubuntu is event driven?
[06:52] <zero-velocity> hey. can any one help me with amsn?
[06:52] <zero-velocity> pls
[06:52] <arrrghhh> node357, and gzip was able to extract it?  i can download the file fine
[06:52] <emman> help please....my RTL 8187b wireless won't work in linux...anybody knows?
[06:52] <unop> arrrghhh, untar it like you would with a tar.gz   tar zxf file.tgz
[06:52] <Fredd> hm ⁶ <- lol ?
[06:52] <Tetrohead> Hey, how do I make font rendering better in FF?
[06:52] <Fredd> u guys do see that rite?
[06:52] <ramontayag> lostogre: isn't a daemon dying an event?
[06:53] <zero-velocity> any one?
[06:53] <drezard> bazhang, u there?
[06:53] <arrrghhh> unop, hrm... i wonder why the gui ark was giving me an error?  thanks.  i guess cli tools always work huh
[06:53] <arrrghhh> i figured the gui was just a front-end for tar anyways...
[06:54] <zero-velocity> okay
[06:54] <t1n0m3n> On install of Ubuntu 8.04, does it give an option to tell the installer where to install grub?
[06:54] <Tetrohead> Anyone know about font rendering and firefox?
[06:54] <bazhang> t1n0m3n, sure
[06:54] <frybye> with hubackup how to navigate to a different pc on the home net to locate the backup when hubackup only presents the "filesystem" and not "locations" "network" etc??
[06:54] <lostogre> ramontayag: Not exactly. In order for an event to register with init it has to be written to do so. Something that can be done is to run the daemon in a script wrapper. You should look at upstart.ubuntu.com. There is language that will make init restart a failed daemon.
[06:54] <frybye> cont. from yesterday..;)
[06:55] <bazhang> !info hubackup
[06:55] <drezard> bazhang, u there???
[06:55] <bazhang> drezard, yes
[06:56] <frybye> is a mounted directory on a networked pc to be found within the /this/that .. file system? if yes - where??
[06:56] <t1n0m3n> ahh, the advanced button right before install allows you to point grub to another hard drive...  coll
[06:56] <ramontayag> lostogre: yikes! okay, thanks.. :)
[06:56] <t1n0m3n> cool
[06:56] <drezard> bazhang, i got the pastbin... but it wont let me post it cause it might be spam.... check the last reply of this post though: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5585463#post5585463
[06:56] <drezard> bazhang, thats what i need help with :)
[06:57] <unop> frybye, a network share/export can be mounted locally .. if that's what you are asking?
[06:57] <bazhang> drezard, install pastebinit the cat the file/command to it
[06:57] <lostogre> ramontayag: Sure. Have fun.
[06:57] <Phipho> frybye: did you know how to get all bandwidth from server
[06:57] <Quiescent> i'm trying to create an img file from nothing and format it as mdos
[06:57] <Quiescent> and i can not figure out how to do that
[06:57] <Phipho> frybye: i use dialup no from cell phone
[06:57] <Quiescent> i've tried formatting the .img file, that doesn't work
[06:57] <bazhang> Quiescent, you mean vfat?
[06:57] <Quiescent> i tried mounting the .img file to format it, but it won't mount
[06:58] <lostogre> Quiescent: look at using the loopback interace for mounting and creating filesystems.
[06:58] <Quiescent> maybe, i'm not really sure
[06:58] <Quiescent> aren't floppies formatted from dos fat16?
[06:58] <frybye> unop.. the share is mounted.. but with the application hubackup (homeuserbackup) I am only given option to locate the backup within the file system structure.. not shown locations or network "" etc
[06:59] <unop> frybye, i suppse this needs to be asked. how did you mount the share locally?
[06:59] <lostogre> Quiescent: usually.
[07:00] <Quiescent> will reading the man page for mount help me?
[07:00] <frybye> i have done that - easy - right click and "mount locally"
[07:00] <frybye> i might have it now - hang on..
[07:01] <lostogre> Quiescent: better to look online for examples of mounting loopback.
[07:01] <unop> frybye, unless hubackup can understand gvfs, you will have to mount the share at the command line
[07:01] <DistroJockey> Hi frybye . Check your email ;P
[07:01] <Phipho> frybye: i use dialup no from cell phone
[07:01] <Quiescent> lol, i want to paste what i've been trying in here but i started the irc client from the terminal, brb
[07:01] <Phipho> frybye: did you know how to get all bandwidth from server
[07:02] <frybye> ok I hve the dir mounted on the desktop but hubackup does not "see" it.. dont know how to use konsole for this!
[07:02] <IrcFuSi0n`30833> !list
[07:03] <unop> frybye, what kind of a network share is this? samba or nfs?
[07:03] <Phipho> distrojockey: did you know how to get all bandwidth from server
[07:03] <Quiescent> "sudo mount -t vfat -o loop test.img /mnt/floppy" - gives me this -  wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0
[07:03] <frybye> DistroJockey: must have overlooked smthing - hang on..
[07:03] <DistroJockey> Phipho, umm, no

[07:04] <DistroJockey> frybye, sent you this link:  http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/165
[07:04] <bazhang> IrcFuSi0n`30833, /msg ubottu for fun if you wish
[07:04] <lostogre> Phipho: what are you trying to do.
[07:04] <emman> Is ubuntu 8.04 could be installed to Asus Eee PC 4gb??
[07:04] <Quiescent> i did "touch test.img" to create the file
[07:04] <bazhang> emman, sure
[07:05] <lostogre> emman: yes, but it might be kind of sluggish. try xubuntu.
[07:05] <bazhang> !eeepc | emman
[07:05] <frybye> DistroJockey: thanks for the info - but it is too complicated for me.. i dont know what sharename and all that stuff is..
[07:05] <unop> Quiescent, errm, that doesn't automatically make a file with a FAT filesystem .. see the mkfs.vfat manpage
[07:05] <Phipho> lostogre: i want get all bandwidth speed from server
[07:05] <bazhang> lostogre, not at all; it handles full ubuntu fine.
[07:05] <emman> Thanks bazhang!
[07:05] <Phipho> lostogre: couse server is lier
[07:05] <lostogre> bazhang: does it? cool.
[07:05] <bazhang> Phipho, what does that have to do with ubuntu support
[07:05] <bazhang> Phipho, please take chat elsewhere
[07:06] <DistroJockey> frybye, you replace sharename and servername with the real things relevant to what you want
[07:06] <frybye> to be honest - if I hve the directory visible on the desktop then the bloody hubackup should be able to see it and use it - end of story..
[07:06] <Phipho> i want get my maximum speed
[07:06] <yakobmatrix> can anyone tell me how to copy an entire website so that I can view them offline?
[07:06] <unop> frybye, what kind of a network share is this? samba or nfs?
[07:06] <frybye> DistroJockey: yeah I figured that but dont know how to do it..
[07:06] <bazhang> Phipho, go to speedtest.net and check there.
[07:06] <unop> yakobmatrix, use wget
[07:06] <Phipho> the server info speedis 256 kbps but the real is 5 kbps
[07:07] <hyperair> pyrex, ping
[07:07] <yakobmatrix> what option should I use?
[07:07] <frybye> and why cant the shi*+ty stinking hubackup just see the directory on my desktop and use it..?
[07:07] <DistroJockey> frybye, in the email I sent I simplified it. Did you see the email?
[07:07] <Tetrohead> Can anyone help me make fonts look better in FF?
[07:07] <Phipho> not check speed. but get all bandwidth
[07:07] <bazhang> Phipho, what is the relation to ubuntu support
[07:07] <lostogre> Phipho: but that is not necessarily something that the server has direct control over. there can be other factors. and really this is the wrong place to ask.
[07:07] <Phipho> i use ubuntu
[07:07] <frybye> DistroJockey: sure i just checked the email and for anybody with good basic knowledge of linux it would have been fine .. this good basic knowledge of linux is not avail at this location...;)
[07:07] <yakobmatrix> unop: can you give an example how to use wget to copy an entire website
[07:07] <bazhang> Phipho, you cannot get all the bandwidth. please take your chat elsewhere.
[07:08] <DistroJockey> frybye, can't really make it any simpler sorry
[07:08] <Phipho> not all but my max bandwidth
[07:08] <unop> yakobmatrix, http://lifehacker.com/382509/create-a-local-website-mirror-with-wget
[07:08] <Phipho> max bandwith is 256 kbps
[07:09] <frybye> I just want to click thru the directorys and let hubackup use that directory on my desktop - the silly frigging thing does not even see it..
[07:09] <frybye> i will have to wait till i get a local guru to drop bye again....
[07:09] <unop> frybye, mount the thing on the CLI .. see man mount.cifs
[07:09] <yakobmatrix> unop : thanks I'll check it out
[07:09] <t1n0m3n> OK, I am in grub, I get an error 21 if I try to boot hd2,4 (which is what it put in), what should go here?
[07:09] <Quiescent> floppy block count would be 1440?
[07:09] <Tetrohead> Can anyone help me make fonts look better in FF?
[07:09] <Phipho> any body know how to get speed connection on ubuntu
[07:09] <lostogre> Phipho: are you using DSL?
[07:09] <hookah> glad to meet everyone here! i am freshman here
[07:10] <owen1> i am installing ubuntu from the alternate cd and gets error when trying to install the base system. any idea?
[07:10] <Phipho> no i use dial up from cell phone
[07:10] <Phipho> the server is telkomsel
[07:10] <frybye> unop ok thanks .. i will have to be off to work in a few mins - catch you folks later...
[07:10] <frybye> thanks for you help...
[07:10] <lostogre> owen1: what is the error?
[07:10] <Flannel> hookah: If you're looking for general chatting, that's in #ubuntu-offtopic, this place is only for support
[07:10] <lostogre> Phipho: that doesn't help.
[07:11] <hookah> thanks,i know that!
[07:11] <Phipho> lostogre: how to get speed connection on ubuntu
[07:11] <lostogre> Phipho: what technology does it use to make the connection? DSL, T1, etc.
[07:11] <Sinnerman> i had problems getting fglrx working on hardy amd64 - kept getting screen freezes. i tried hardy i386 and it works; where should i file a bug report? now im stuck with 3GB ram instead of the 4GB i bought.
[07:11] <frybye> i still think it is not absurde to hope that linux will one day -just work- for folks without them having to do at lest 1/2 of an informatics study course...
[07:11] <unop> Quiescent, the mkfs.vfat manpage has a list of valid block counts
[07:11] <owen1> lostogre: an installation step failed...failing step is: Install the base system.
[07:12] <mneptok> frybye: seeing that my 74 year old father uses Ubuntu, i'd say it "just works" for him.
[07:12] <hookah> can someone give some suggestion about  the setting of locale in ubuntu8.04
[07:12] <Phipho> i don't know the true. but i think is DSL
[07:12] <lostogre> owen1: check one of the other virtual tabs. there should be some error messages.
[07:12] <Tetrohead> Firefox fonts? Anyone help?
[07:12] <owen1> lostogre: i am follwing the command-line installtion - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems
[07:13] <t1n0m3n> OK, I found that Windows is on hd0,0   so Ubuntu must be on hd2,1?  channel2, partition1?  is that how it works?
[07:13] <lostogre> Phipho: if it is DSL, there is no good way to get max speed from your connection. It is a limitation of the technology itself.
[07:13] <mneptok> Tetrohead: open the appearance prefs and tweak the font rendering there
[07:13] <owen1> lostogre: how do i access the log files?
[07:13] <hookah> the characters in my gnome-terminal is chaos
[07:13] <Tetrohead> mneptok: Done all that. Toggled every setting every way
[07:14] <lostogre> owen1: I understand. there should still be error messages on one of the other virtual terms. try alt-f2 or alt-f3
[07:14] <namegame> t1n0m3n, windows is usually on hd0, 1 in my experience
[07:14] <Phipho> lostogre: nothing other choice for tune my speed
[07:14] <namegame> concerning dual-boots
[07:14] <t1n0m3n> namegame: hmm, it booted when I put hd0,0
[07:15] <t1n0m3n> restarting again
[07:15] <Quiescent> alright, did mkfs.vfat -C test.img 1440
[07:15] <lostogre> Phipho: Without knowing all of the details of you situation there is no way to know for sure, but I don't think so.
[07:15] <turtle_> mkv
[07:15] <DistroJockey> t1n0m3n, hd0,0 = first hard drive, first partition. second hard drive, first partition = hd1,0
[07:15] <Quiescent> then mounted it
[07:15] <unop> Quiescent, note that block count does not equate to blocks allocated or the total size
[07:15] <Quiescent> but fdformat /mnt/floppy says "not a block device"
[07:16] <unop> Quiescent, 1440 is not a valid block count for vfat either
[07:16] <hookah>  good bye everyone!
[07:16] <owen1> lostogre: ok, where is the log file?
[07:16] <Phipho> lostogre: can i stole many speed from server? i'm very angry with server
[07:17] <bazhang> Phipho, no.
[07:17] <lostogre> Phipho: NO. You can't!
[07:17] <bazhang> Phipho, please stop NOW.
[07:17] <Phipho> lostogre: why
[07:18] <Phipho> lostogre: in my country the isp very much want our money
[07:18] <Phipho> lostogre: not quality
[07:18] <bazhang> !ot | Phipho
[07:18] <t1n0m3n> wow, ok, that is not intuitive at all
[07:19] <t1n0m3n> hd0,0 boots windows, hd0,4 boots linux
[07:19] <lonejack> hi, I've a little problem on a ubuntu installation on a PIII, on the initial pages(graphic page). When I prepared the installation I used a motitor 1680x1040 but now the used monitor is 1280x1024. I think that the page loaded isn't compatible. Any clue to solve... Thank you
[07:19] <lostogre> owen1: do you know how to use other virtual terminals?
[07:19] <Gnea> Phipho: ubuntu servers are round-robined. some will be fast, some will not be fast.
[07:19] <bazhang> Gnea, that is not what he is proposing
[07:20] <owen1> lostogre: is it /var/log/syslog ?
[07:20] <Gnea> bazhang: i know what he said.
[07:20] <Phipho> thanks info Gnea
[07:20] <bazhang> Gnea, it is offtopic here.
[07:20] <owen1> lostogre: i know how to navigate in a termonal.
[07:20] <rtw35783> t1n0m3n: keep in mind that logical partitions always start at 4. 0 to 3 is reserved for primary and extended partitions. so it makes sense.
[07:20] <lostogre> owen1: try dmesg at a command prompt
[07:20] <Gnea> Phipho: you'll just have to figure out which are good for you and update your /etc/hosts file
[07:20] <Gnea> Phipho: if you try to attack them, your ISP will take your connection away.
[07:21] <t1n0m3n> rtw35783: but windows and linux are not on the same disk
[07:21] <lostogre> owen1: sorry, I didn't know your level of skill.
[07:21] <unop> Quiescent, sudo mkfs.vfat -C test.img 512 && mkdir test.img.mnt && sudo mount -t vfat -o loop test.img test.img.mnt
[07:21] <unop> Quiescent,   now you have the file mounted, you can put what you want on it, just make sure that the total size of the img file does not exceed 1468006 bytes
[07:21] <rtw35783> t1n0m3n: then it can't be both (hd0..)
[07:21] <Phipho> gnea: i just want to calculate my maximum speed
[07:21] <lostogre> later everyone. duty calls.
[07:22] <Gnea> Phipho: let's chat in #ubuntu-offtopic

[07:30] <bazhang> eligos, remove quiet and splash from boot params to see exact errors

[07:35] <moshe> I am running 32 bit 8.4 . I read about the uninstall/reinstall. next issue , is there a way to preserve my bookmarks?
[07:35] <Gnea> !ask | Miyavix3
[07:36] <Quiescent> how do i make it so that i can scroll in terminal with screen
[07:36] <mneptok> !lol > codyzapp
[07:36] <codyzapp> okay...
[07:36] <Gnea> Fredd: not really... i'm guessing you've adjusted the volume of master and pcm in the volume control, while bringing the volume up within a flash video?
[07:36] <mneptok> Quiescent: meta-pg.up
[07:37] <owen1> i am installing ubuntu. i get error so i am in the terminal. dmesg shows errors with I/O, dev sda.  fdisk -l shows "unable to read /dev/sda.  any idea?
[07:37] <Frozen_North> moshe: Click on Bookmarks->Organize-> Import/Backup
[07:37] <Quiescent> mneptok: what?
[07:38] <Frozen_North> okay that pm is annoying
[07:38] <mneptok> Quiescent: "windows key" + PgUp
[07:38] <Quiescent> ohh
[07:38] <moshe> frozen_north, thanks for the tip. will try to uninstall firefox and reinstall to see if that is the fix
[07:38] <Fredd> Gnea: im pretty sure thats not the case because it was just working before i got the mkv's working
[07:38] <Fredd> but i will check my alsamixer again
[07:38] <afief> I am trying to decide on a new laptop to buy, and Tablet PC's prices have come down a good deal these days. Does ubuntu support Tablets? can I use it to easily take notes?
[07:39] <Gnea> Fredd: until you've made sure, it's better to just not say anything against it
[07:39] <Gnea> afief: as I understand it, yes.
[07:40] <afief> Gnea, Could you recommend some software to use on it?
[07:40] <mneptok> afief: they work, but calibration tools are anemic
[07:40] <afief> Gnea, I am mainly interested in using it at the classroom to take notes(I am too messy with papers, files are easier to handle)
[07:40] <owen1> fdisk -l returns "Unable to read /dev/sda" any idea?
[07:41] <Frozen_North> owen1: try sda1,2 etc
[07:42] <Frozen_North> owen1: or you could have a dead drive
[07:42] <owen1> Frozen_North: i am in the middle of installing ubuntu. can u elaborate?
[07:42] <Gnea> afief: here, make a decision for yourself: http://tuxmobil.org/tablet_unix.html
[07:42] <mneptok> owen1: what's the drive controller? what's the computer?
[07:42] <Fredd> Gnea: now im sure
[07:42] <Gnea> Fredd: of?
[07:42] <schone> hey all, whats an easy to use and simple to setup mail server for ubuntu hardy
[07:43] <Gnea> schone: exim4, postfix
[07:43] <owen1> mneptok: how do i know the drive controller? it's HP, i used to have ubuntu before, and debian.
[07:43] <Fredd> Gnea: the volume
[07:44] <Gnea> Fredd: so it works?
[07:44] <entropius> Another sound question for you guys: I have sound stuttering problems for all sounds using the onboard sound (Nvidia chipset) on a new motherboard, in Ubuntu 8.04. Any ideas what could cause this?
[07:44] <Fredd> no lol
[07:44] <Gnea> ok, i need sleep, i have no patience left for cryptic nonsense.
[07:44] <Gnea> !sound
[07:45] <Fredd> thats very helpful.
[07:45] <Kartagis> are there any pastebin scripts available? not ones i can send to http://www.pastebin.ca or similar, one i can create my own pastebin with
[07:45] <DavidDavid> We just say a district, if a large group of militias, such said a big company, fight you, to get money
[07:45] <Fredd> pastebinit
[07:45] <Fredd> oops didnt read lol
[07:45] <Gnea> !pastebin
[07:46] <Fredd> Kartagis: i believe u could get a copy of pastebin from the their main site
[07:46] <eligos> I'm back
[07:46] <bazhang> Kartagis, yup; install pastebinit then cat and | the command/file to it
[07:46] <bazhang> Kartagis, it will give you a url in the terminal
[07:47] <CostaRicanQuaker> how do i check what motherboard i have?
[07:47] <rtw35783> CostaRicanQuaker: sudo | dmidecode | less
[07:47] <rtw35783> CostaRicanQuaker: err,  sudo dmidecode | less
[07:47] <Kartagis> bazhang: not like that. i want to have my own pastebin
[07:47] <eligos> the error I get is the following:
[07:48] <bazhang> Kartagis, you want to have a service from a site you host?
[07:48] <Kartagis> bazhang: exactly
[07:48] <eligos> init: rcs main process (5554) killed by SEGV signal
[07:49] <entropius> uBOTtu: I've already read that, and none of the advice seems to help.
[07:49] <entropius> :P
[07:49] <Bodsda> entropius, ubottu is a bot
[07:49] <entropius> I know, but I figured I'd reply to him as a way of letting everyone know that I'd already seen that page
[07:49] <eligos> init: unable to execute "/bin/sh" for rc default: no such file or directory
[07:49] <bazhang> Kartagis, you might ask the pastebinit developer about that
[07:50] <eligos> init: rc-default main process (6901) terminated with status 255
[07:50] <bazhang> Kartagis, sorry, really have no idea about that
[07:50] <mneptok> Kartagis: this is the wrong venure for such questions, really
[07:50] <CostaRicanQuaker> what's the command to check the computer specs?
[07:51] <emman> What is wine?
[07:51] <eligos> anyone knows what those errors mean?
[07:51] <dxdemetriou> can I change the way that smb:// works on nautilus so to not have to ask for password if the password is the same to the current user?
[07:51] <mneptok> CostaRicanQuaker: what specs?
[07:51] <entropius> CostaRicanQuaker: What specs are you interested in?
[07:51] <Bodsda> eligos, youd need to explain what your doing first
[07:51] <bazhang> emman, a way to run windows games and some apps under ubuntu
[07:51] <entropius> CostaRicanQuaker: You can find some information by doing cat /proc/cpuinfo
[07:51] <Quiescent> holy crap. screen is amazing
[07:51] <kenkku_> dxdemetriou: nautilus doesn't know what your password is
[07:51] <Frozen_North> eligos: I would recommend Cedega or CrossOver Office for ease of use however
[07:51] <bazhang> emman, you can check the appdb for what does and does not work
[07:51] <mneptok> bazhang: i love you even more now. games don;t qualify as apps. amen, bruddah!
[07:52] <kenkku_> dxdemetriou: it's not stored anywhere
[07:52] <rtw35783> Quiescent: screen is best
[07:52] <bazhang> !appdb | emman
[07:52] <bazhang> mneptok, haha
[07:52] <Quiescent> if i ever have to go back to using only a CLI, i'll just want bash and screen
[07:52] <emman> you mean i can run winamps under ubuntu using wine? Can I download wine...what is the website?
[07:52] <mneptok> Quiescent: try zsh ;)
[07:52] <mneptok> emman: skip WinAmp. try XMMS.
[07:52] <bazhang> emman, just install via synaptic
[07:52] <Quiescent> emman: don't bother
[07:53] <Bodsda> emmaww.winehq.org
[07:53] <kenkku_> emman: I don't recommend using winamp. there are plenty of good alternatives. like xmms
[07:53] <entropius> emman: You certainly can download wine -- there's a website (google it), but you can just install it by doing sudo apt-get install wine
[07:53] <sporkf> http://www.usenet-forums.com/linux-networking/378472-ubuntu-linux-pnl.html
[07:53] <Bodsda> emman www.winehq.org
[07:53] <Quiescent> zsh, i'm just now learning screen
[07:53] <Quiescent> heh
[07:53] <dxdemetriou> kenkku_, I just want to mount some shared folders on login for each user, but the problem is that it asks for the password 2 times
[07:53] <bazhang> Bodsda, hi :)
[07:53] <eligos> bodsda: I get those errors when trying to install ubuntu, I removed "quiet splash" to see what the errors where and those are the last lines that I got
[07:53] <entropius> but using it for winamp is probably not a good idea, since xmms/etc. will be better
[07:53] <mneptok> Quiescent: zsh doesn;t differ much from bash until you want it to
[07:53] <Bodsda> entropius, the repos do not contain the latest wine version by default
[07:53] <owen1> mneptok: how do i know the drive controller? it's HP, i used to have ubuntu before, and debian.
[07:53] <kenkku_> dxdemetriou: oooh. hmm, ok
[07:53] <DistroJockey> !xmms
[07:54] <Quiescent> oh, i hardly know how to use bash
[07:54] <mneptok> owen1: lshw
[07:54] <Quiescent> haven't been on linux for that long
[07:54] <mneptok> Quiescent: perfect! so you're not addicted! time to install zsh ;)
[07:54] <Bodsda> eligos, md5 checksum the iso and the burned disc, if that doesnt work, reburn at a lower speed, if that doesnt work try the alternate cd
[07:55] <Quiescent> how's the learning curve with zsh?
[07:55] <mneptok> Quiescent: gentle slope that rises as you gain prowess
[07:55] <flipouk> Hey
[07:55] <flipouk> Do you guys know any good replacement for vsound?
[07:56] <flipouk> vsound is not in Hadry anymore :(
[07:56] <flipouk> s/Hadry/Hardy/
[07:56] <Bodsda> Quiescent, why do you need zsh?
[07:56] <eligos> bodsda: how's about this... if I remove the graphics card it boots no problem, and my graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce 7100 GS pci express 256mb
[07:57] <mneptok> Bodsda: i'm recommending it to him
[07:57] <sporkf> http://articles.eliasalucard.com/ubuntu_lunix_is_racist.xhtml
[07:57] <eligos> bodsda: the cd is fine
[07:57] <Quiescent> bodsda: i don't just curious
[07:57] <Bodsda> eligos, i had the same problem, install ubuntu without graphics card, then boot into ubuntu, install the restricted driver modules for your card, then reboot with graphics card
[07:57] <Quiescent> does bash do variable completion?
[07:57] <natha1> can anyone here help with wireless networking?
[07:57] <Bodsda> Quiescent, ive never heard of it but just googled and its some sort of shell with a few extra features
[07:57] <Scorp_> natha1: Yes, ask your question!
[07:58] <Scorp_> !ask natha1
[07:58] <Bodsda> Quiescent, not variables but commands anf file paths
[07:58] <Bodsda> !ask | natha1
[07:58] <tonisius> ok, I have (hd0,0) as my windows drive, (hd2,0) my linux drive, when I installed the root from (hd2,0) to setup on (hd0,0) it completely goes into a loop, and keeps bringing up the same grub boot loader, instead of chaining into the windows boot loader, any help on this?
[07:58] <Quiescent> bodsda: it was just recommended to me, in the setup i see something called "variable completion" and i'm hoping it does what i think
[07:58] <tonisius> trying to get the windows boot loader again
[07:58] <Scorp_> Bodsda: Ohh, thanks !!
[07:58] <natha1> It ain't working
[07:58] <tonisius> and please, no more of those !grub issues
[07:58] <Bodsda> Scorp_, what did i do?
[07:58] <natha1> was working but then stopped. Think I have the ndiswrapper going fine
[07:59] <Fredd> so is there anyway to get flashplayer-nonfree to work with alsa?
[07:59] <natha1> can see networks when I do iwlist
[07:59] <tonisius> I already did them all, and endewd up finding that moving my linux drive to another location fixed all the issues, windows hated that a nix based partition was in hd0's location
[07:59] <Scorp_> Bodsda: Ohh, thanks !!
[07:59] <entropius> natha1: what happens when you try to connect to those networks?
[07:59] <Bodsda> mneptok, haha, nice
[07:59] <miyavix3> Fredd: Apparently I didn't know how to do it
[07:59] <Scorp_> Bodsda: Taught me the ask thingie
[07:59] <gilda> vista tonisius ?
[08:00] <eligos> bodsda: so I should phisically remove the graphics card and use integrated video, install ubuntu, then install the module for my card, shut down, hook the graphics card again, reboot, and it should work?
[08:00] <Fredd> miyavix3: i dont know man lol im busy trying to get flash working
[08:00] <miyavix3> .-.
[08:00] <Bodsda> Scorp_, oh, k,.,. syntax is    !command | nick       or      !command > nick   for pm
[08:00] <Scorp_> eligos: Have u set up the BIOS Correct ?? It has an option to choose integrated and PCI Card !!
[08:00] <Bodsda> eligos, no dont physically remove it, just dont use it, use onboard
[08:00] <natha1> using the network manager but no luck
[08:00] <miyavix3> Uh, can anyone help me repair my ubuntu?
[08:00] <natha1> just does not connect
[08:00] <entropius> eligos: you might not have to physically remove the graphics card based on your BIOS -- my motherboard will let me run the integrated while there's a PCI video card in there
[08:00] <rustychicken> is there a firefox extension for automatically making certain sites (like gmail) use ssl, so i dont have to type out the full url when accessing https://mail.google.com?
[08:01] <rustychicken> miyavix3: we wont know until we know what problems you are having.  ;-)
[08:01] <miyavix3> Ok
[08:01] <miyavix3> Time to laugh at me
[08:01] <Scorp_> natha1: If u can see the network and not connect, it could be an error of the security key... are you accessing a secure network ???
[08:01] <entropius> natha1: if you can see the networks in iwlist, try manually connecting to them using iwconfig. Try something like "sudo iwconfig eth1 essid <whatever>", replacing eth1 with whatever your network card is
[08:01] <rustychicken> miyavix3: i guarantee ive done worse
[08:01] <miyavix3> but I started removing python2.4-minimal
[08:01] <miyavix3> And i started uninstalling ubuntu
[08:01] <entropius> natha1: and yes, if the network is encrypted, you might be having issues with that. Can the network manager see the networks?
[08:02] <eligos> ok, I'll give it a shot, brb
[08:02] <Quiescent> i'm new to this, but does anyone else get the impression that it's easy to end up loading all sorts of crap without easily being able to remove it?
[08:02] <miyavix3> but it deleted like 20-30 progs before I realised what it was doing
[08:02] <miyavix3> so now I can't get back into ubuntu
[08:02] <miyavix3> I'm running off of the trial in the disk
[08:02] <rustychicken> Quiescent: not if you use the package manager...
[08:02] <balz> what is the command to shut down a computer via ssh?
[08:02] <namegame> miyavix3: reinstall it if possible
[08:02] <zupb> hi, guys. I have a virtual machine with ip <IP_ADDRESS> and ip on a host <IP_ADDRESS> for it. Besides this, i have ip <IP_ADDRESS> on a host for local network. I have a "virtual" ip <IP_ADDRESS> (sudo eth0:1 <IP_ADDRESS> up) for VM local ip. When i try to do bride, i use such commands:
[08:02] <natha1> is there a command I can type in terminal that will show you how I have things configured? It has a password on it, but that is entered into the network manager gui
[08:02] <zupb> echo 1 > sudo /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[08:02] <zupb> sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d <IP_ADDRESS> -j DNAT --to-destination <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:02] <zupb> and
[08:02] <zupb> sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s <IP_ADDRESS> -j SNAT --to-source <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:02] <zupb> i doesn't work, what i do wrong? please, help.
[08:02] <FloodBot1> zupb: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:02] <miyavix3> I can't repair it?
[08:02] <entropius> balz: ssh into it and run "halt"
[08:02] <balz> entropius:  sudo?
[08:03] <miyavix3> Can I repair it, or no?
[08:03] <gilda> miyavix3: what does ubuntu do when u try to start it back up ?
[08:03] <natha1> Also is it possible to have a private conversation, this is very hard to follow
[08:03] <balz> entropius:  thank you, btw!
[08:03] <entropius> balz: yes, if you didn't ssh in as root
[08:03] <rustychicken> miyavix3: the livecd is not the trial version, it is the full version of ubuntu :-D
[08:03] <miyavix3> Well duh
[08:03] <miyavix3> That's what I have to use atm
[08:03] <zupb> http://paste.ubuntu.com/37346/
[08:03] <miyavix3> Because it won't boot into the INSTALLED version on my HDD
[08:03] <entropius> balz: there's also the "shutdown" command which supports stuff like shutting down in 5 minutes and warning all the logged-on users that the system is going down, etc
[08:03] <miyavix3> It boots into a screen that looks like ms DOS
[08:04] <miyavix3> and it asks me for my user name
[08:04] <miyavix3> then password
[08:04] <namegame> miyavix3: that's bash
[08:04] <timz84> i have a Q
[08:04] <miyavix3> but after that it's just >>>
[08:04] <Scorp_> miyavix3: are u aware of what all u deleted ?? maybe getting back the xserver should give u a start.
[08:04] <balz> entropius:  yeah i used that before but it gave me a 'system is going down for maintenence' message and then led me to some weird blue-screen cli with options
[08:04] <gilda> miyavix3: if you can get to that screen you can recover your ubuntu
[08:04] <Quiescent> i've only had ubuntu installed for a couple of weeks on this computer and synaptic says that i have 1200 something packages installed, how is that manageable?
[08:04] <balz> entropius:  but sudo halt is exactly what i was looking for! thank you!
[08:04] <miyavix3> Ok cool
[08:04] <timz84> does anyone know how i can go about moving my current home folder to another harddrive?
[08:04] <emman> Thank you guys!
[08:04] <miyavix3> Want to PM me?
[08:04] <entropius> balz: no problem!
[08:05] <dxdemetriou> I have installed Likewise-open so each user from Active Directory to can login. Now I'm trying to find a way how I can make the shared directory for each one from samba to mount on login. The samba is another machine with Linux, and the password is the same for each user with the Active Directory
[08:05] <Scorp_> miyavix3: If u can reach the tty1 screen, use sudo apt-get to get everything back step by step...
[08:05] <entropius> Timz84: You just want to copy the files?
[08:05] <miyavix3> oh really?
[08:05] <Scorp_> miyavix3: yepp!! Start with the basics.. The core packages...
[08:06] <Bodsda> miyavix3, is this a clean install?
[08:06] <timz84> i want to have the home folder on a bigger hd so i can fit more files in it
[08:06] <milligan_> crontab -e -> add the following: * * * * * /milligan/run.sh -> the script doesn't seem to be executed. Any ideas why ?
[08:06] <miyavix3> well, I've been using it and got all comfortable
[08:06] <Bodsda> timz84, you can either resize the partition or tar it and move it
[08:06] <namegame> Bodsda, miya is trying to recover his/her system
[08:06] <dxdemetriou> Is there something I can do like on windows, that first try the password for the current user first, and if it isn't correct it asks?
[08:06] <unop> milligan_, * * * * * is probably too vague -- be a little more specific
[08:06] <Bodsda> namegame, i know, but ive missed the problem (was afk)
[08:07] <timz84> ok
[08:07] <unop> timz84, mount the other harddrive somewhere, e.g. /media/drive. then copy the contents of ~ to it.  sudo rsync -av ~/ /media/drive/~ . then delete /home/$USER and mount the partition on /media/$USER (via /etc/fstab)
[08:07] <Bodsda> dxdemetriou, elaborate please, whats the problem
[08:07] <Scorp_>  Bodsda, miyavix3 deleted a few packages unknowingly... so cant get the the graphical thing anymore...
[08:07] <namegame> Bodsda, from the description given it seems that miya has uninstalled the X-server
[08:08] <Bodsda> unop, whats rsync  ?
[08:08] <miyavix3> I'm gonna go back into that
[08:08] <unop> timz84, actually make that.   sudo rsync -av ~/ /media/drive/
[08:08] <miyavix3> and apt-get ubuntu-desktop
[08:08] <Bodsda> namegame, xserver or ubuntu-desktop ?
[08:08] <unop> Bodsda, you can ask ubuntu that.   whatis rsync
[08:08] <Bodsda> cheers unop
[08:08] <Scorp_> miyavix3: yeah... perfect, but only if ur net is working... best of luck !!
[08:08] <milligan_> unop, Should 5 stars have the job run every minute? Should I do */1 * * * * instead?
[08:08] <miyavix3> Hmm
[08:08] <miyavix3> It has a wpa
[08:08] <owen1> mneptok: lshw: not found
[08:08] <Quiescent> bash, screen and sshd are incredibly useful, especially when used in combination with ssh -X
[08:08] <miyavix3> should I disable it
[08:08] <miyavix3> ?
[08:08] <unop> milligan_, that's better, yea
[08:08] <FloodBot1> miyavix3: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:08] <Fredd> still no audio with flash
[08:08] <natha1> can anybody here help with wireless networking? it is possible to have a private conversation?
[08:09]  * bigmack83 has finally made the conversion from vista to windows...
[08:09] <Quiescent> these are things i never thought possible on windows
[08:09] <namegame> Bodsda, could be one, or both, I'm not sure
[08:09] <Scorp_> miyavix3: No, dont disable it... keep it running...!!!
[08:09] <Bodsda> unop, she doesnt no anything about !whatis rsync
[08:09] <timz84> k thx
[08:09] <entropius> Natha1: Sure, but you might ought to keep it in public so more people can help
[08:09] <miyavix3> o.O not my network, the password. so I don't have to enter anything.
[08:09] <Scorp_> ! rsync
[08:09] <miyavix3> Anywho
[08:09] <unop> bigmack83, hmm, lotsa people have already done that -- as vista is windows
[08:09] <miyavix3> I'll be back, I can tell you that much
[08:09] <miyavix3> brb
[08:09] <entropius> I have a problem with all sounds stuttering badly on my install. It's on the onboard sound of a Nvidia-chipset motherboard. Any ideas where I can look for advice? All the resources I've found deal with having no sound at all.
[08:09] <unop> Bodsda, at a terminal .. :)
[08:09] <natha1> very hard to follow
[08:10] <Bodsda> unop, im not on ubuntu atm im on windows *sigh*
[08:10] <timoguin> I need help patching my currently-running RT kernel for driver support.  Should I just patch the linux-headers-rt source?
[08:10] <Scorp_> entropius: U could use the same resources to kinda recover ur sound back...
[08:10] <timz84> i just apt got xchat, what is this red line?
[08:10] <unop> Bodsda, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rsync
[08:10] <dxdemetriou> Bodsda, when the user login with the AD on Ubuntu is ok with Likewise-open. When user try to connect to it's shared folder from samba it asks for password. Can I make something to use the same password that used on AD to samba too?
[08:10] <natha1> unfortunately you are dealing with a first time linux user
[08:10] <unop> !info rsync | Bodsda
[08:10] <Bodsda> dxdemetriou, sorry, not sure -- ask channel
[08:11] <Bodsda> unop, i c, does it keep permissions and everything?
[08:11] <bigmack83> unop: haha oops. i mean i have made the change from vista to linux
[08:11] <gilda> natha1: what exactly is your wireless issue ?
[08:11] <unop> Bodsda, depends on how it is invoked
[08:11] <timz84> wanna hear something funny?
[08:11] <bigmack83> well, ubuntu
[08:11] <entropius> Bodsda: That information on rsync isn't very informative. What it's good for is synchronizing two directories over a network using as little network traffic as possible. One thing it can do is copy, but it'll do more. And, yes, there's an option for preserving permissions.
[08:11] <timz84> i accidentally installed ubuntu over vista
[08:12] <entropius> man rsync will tell you exactly what switches do what
[08:12] <Bodsda> wow, cheers entropius -- and thanks unop ;~)
[08:12] <unop> the rsync manpages require a lot of patience and a huge working set memory
[08:13] <poo> ha
[08:13] <FAJALOU> i am trying to get samba to see my windows computer downstairs but every time i want to see it, i have to manually type in smb://<IP_ADDRESS>/users
[08:13] <unop> Bodsda, tho you don't have to use rsync over a network .. it can sync two local directories just fine
[08:13] <vombat> this is a nice place! hi everybody!
[08:13] <FAJALOU> is there a way that it will all just show up/
[08:13] <Bodsda> cool
[08:14] <constrictor> my shared printer shows up in printer settings when i go to system->administration->printing but it doesn't show up when i try to print from any application any ideas?
[08:14] <Ziroday> FAJALOU: if you make a shortcut, then yes
[08:15] <FAJALOU> Ziroday: i want to be able to see the WHOLE computer; ie not just /users before hardy i could see C$ and D$ when i went to it in samba
[08:15] <FAJALOU> but now i cant
[08:15] <maddox> hello?
[08:15] <debCarlos> Ziroday: Shortcut.... mmmm, maybe symlink :)
[08:15] <debCarlos> !hello | maddox
[08:15] <dxdemetriou> that's what I'm trying to do, but I can't because it asks for password.. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=761464
[08:15] <calvini> @search toyota way
[08:15] <FAJALOU> Ziroday:  and it doesn't let me create a link :|
[08:16] <Ziroday> debCarlos: on a windows computer
[08:16] <Quiescent> why isn't there a fsck.ntfs?
[08:16] <debCarlos> Ziroday: Oh... ok :)
[08:16] <Ziroday> FAJALOU: if you want to do that, then you would have to make your entire computer a samba share
[08:16] <maddox> first time I have been on IRC in nearly a decade...this is weird
[08:16] <Flannel> Quiescent: Because NTFS support is all done at userlevel with FUSE
[08:17] <Ziroday> FAJALOU: which is *highly* not recommended
[08:17] <entropius> maddox: some things never change :)
[08:17] <dunas> Question: Is there some secret to getting ELF files working, such as, say, ADOM?
[08:17] <entropius> Is NTFS write support completely solid these days?
[08:17] <gilda> maddox: its like riding a bike youll get back in the swing of things
[08:17] <debCarlos> entropius: "some things never change"... from matrix ?
[08:17] <tabber> hi, anyone knows how can I use rm to remove files older than 30 mins in a specific dir?
[08:17] <generalsnus> trying to use pam_group.so   so users that logs on would be a member of the local groups floppy/audio/fuse/plugdev.   but it dosent seem to work, issuing the cmd "id" with a user only shows he is a member of the group "domain^user" anyone else tried this?
[08:17] <FAJALOU> Ziroday: regardless; if i go into Windows Network, i should be able to see DOWN, but i can't and i have to manually type in the ip address and then type in the directory i am looking for, how can i change that?
[08:17] <Miyavix3> I'm back everyone
[08:18] <Quiescent> i have to remind myself to actually use the safe hardware removal crap in windows when i move my hard-drive back and forth between machines
[08:18] <Ziroday> FAJALOU: this is not a windows help channel, try #windows
[08:18] <gilda> Miyavix3: howd that work for ya
[08:18] <Miyavix3> It says "Nope can't do it... pdkg --configure -a"
[08:18] <Miyavix3> So I did it
[08:18] <Miyavix3> and "Requires a super user"
[08:18] <Miyavix3> So
[08:18] <entropius> Quiescent: Windows doesn't let you remove it half the time, I've found ... in Windows I find myself wishing for DOS umount :P
[08:18] <Miyavix3> I have no idea
[08:18] <FloodBot1> Miyavix3: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:18] <maddox> this time last week, I thought Linux was an unnecessarily complicated OS that served no purpose other than as a way for ubernerds to flaunt their technical superiority
[08:18] <gilda> Miyavix3: sudo   !!
[08:18] <dunas> Is there some secret to getting ELF files working, such as, say, ADOM? Google was surprisingly difficult.
[08:19] <debCarlos> Miyavix3: do a    sudo dpkg --configure -a
[08:19] <FAJALOU> Ziroday:  this is not a windows problem; i am having problems seeing the windows computer, from a ubunut computer and i used to be able to see it in gutsy no problem but now i cannot.
[08:19] <entropius> maddox: for some of us it's the only thing that will let us get our work done :)
[08:19] <maddox> yesterday, I formatted my old Windows drive
[08:19] <Miyavix3> I hate my life
[08:19] <Miyavix3> -.-
[08:19] <maddox> things obviously change ;)
[08:19] <Bodsda> !yay | maddox
[08:19] <Miyavix3> It's like a 5 minute boot just to get into here
[08:19] <Miyavix3> Is arse considered a swear in here?
[08:19] <gilda> Miyavix3: thats when you almost need a spare ;)
[08:19] <Quiescent> you know, here i was thinking about screwing around with DOS, it doesn't seem worth it anymore
[08:19] <debCarlos> lol
[08:20] <Miyavix3> Ok well
[08:20] <Miyavix3> I'm gonna be back
[08:20] <maddox> the only two things I needed windows for were Photoshop and Eastside Hockey Manager. gimp seems like a reasonable option for most day-to-day PS needs, and virtualbox runs EHM. so no need for Windows. it feels awesome.
[08:20] <Quiescent> it's like a children's game game compared to linux...
[08:20] <unop> FAJALOU, setting up name resolution in samba.  http://oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/ch07_03.html

[08:21] <maddox> my mom's windows machine is so overloaded with crap that it takes fifteen minutes to boot. I wanted to install ubuntu on her computer to keep it running fast
[08:21] <maddox> come to find out, she knows a bunch of Unix commands from twenty years ago
[08:22] <Bodsda> maddox, please dont use this channel for general chat, this is for support, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:22] <maddox> oh, ok. bye.
[08:22] <Quiescent> Windows is like the playground that just has a swing set and slide. Linux is like the indoor playground at the fast-food restaurant that has all the tubes and steering wheels, clear domes and ball pits
[08:22] <Quiescent> It's so much more fun.
[08:23] <entropius> So nobody knows anything about causes of sound stuttering?
[08:23] <FAJALOU> unop: confused :|
[08:23] <Quiescent> entropius, I had all sorts of sound problems at first. do a google search for "perfect pulseaudio setup"
[08:24] <Quiescent> that fixed everything for me
[08:25] <Kartagis> how do I create a configure script in a svn version directory?
[08:26] <FAJALOU> unop: going to bed night
[08:26] <starenka> hi
[08:26] <Flannel> Kartagis: What do you mean?
[08:26] <Shihan> just out of curiosity... does anyone have a problem with scrolling in ff3?
[08:26] <starenka> anybody can help with proftpd and symlinks?
[08:27] <prince_jammys> Shihan: i've seen it mentioned
[08:27] <Kartagis> Flannel: I downloaded svn version of my irc client, it has no configure script. how do i create it?
[08:27] <Shihan> k... just wanted to make sure it still exists... cause i have it and its more then a little painful
[08:28] <Flannel> Kartagis: Ah, you should consult the documentation they have for building development versions
[08:28] <pins> i have intel 4965abg and its having a tough time coming online. I followed the !wiki link completely. No dice.
[08:28] <budo> hi
[08:29] <starenka> [08:29] <Flannel> !anyone | starenka
[08:29] <namegame> pins, can you pastebin the results of ifconig -a
[08:29] <pins> !wifi | pyrex
[08:29] <pins> one sec
[08:30] <gilda> starenka: i think ppl r looking for further details on ur issue 1st
[08:30] <blarg_> hey audio works fine in gnome but not in kde ., any suggestions/comments?
[08:30] <starenka> ubottu: ok. i got /home/ftp dir with whole bunch of symlinks. but i cant follow them while connected thru ftp
[08:30] <ubuntu_> h'
[08:30] <Scarey> Flannel, or one could argue that if everybody always start the same way ppl could simply learn to ignore it and just accept the few extra letters in their sentences ? :)
[08:30] <timoguin> how can the same RT patches applied to make the linux-image-rt package be made to the normal ubuntu kernel?
[08:30] <miyavix3> Hello again
[08:30] <generalsnus> My linux users authenticate against AD, and i was trying to use pam_group.so so users that logs on would be a member of the local groups floppy/audio/fuse/plugdev. but it dosent seem to work, issuing the cmd "id" with a user only shows he is a member of the group "domain^user" anyone else tried this?
[08:30] <starenka> i supose it's permissions issue, right?
[08:30] <starenka> can i find some logs, concerning this?
[08:30] <tabber> got it: find /path/ -name "*.dm" -mmin +30 | xargs rm
[08:31] <miyavix3> Seems I cannot resolve host security.ubuntu.com
[08:31] <gilda> starenka: maybe - ive also seen ftp struggle with following symlinks say to other mounted drives and such
[08:31] <gilda> miyavix3: then looks like your networkings down to
[08:31] <blarg_> is there a net split or something? heh
[08:31] <blarg_> sheesh.,
[08:31] <miyavix3> How is that possible?
[08:31] <starenka> gilda: yes this is it: those symlinks go to other media and ntfs...
[08:31] <miyavix3> I'm on it right now
[08:32] <miyavix3> My question is, how is it going to detect my network out of the few in my area... and then let me put in my password?
[08:32] <gilda> miyavix3: well that would depend how you set up your network
[08:33] <pins> namegame: http://pastebin.com/m66bda95e
[08:33] <miyavix3> I can just turn wpa off
[08:33] <miyavix3> for now
[08:33] <starenka> gilda: but it shouldn't really matter, right? the ftp deamon just handles symlink and dereferences it... if the dir is readable within the system it will show it contents
[08:33] <miyavix3> Would that all all help?
[08:33] <Drizzt321> I'm looking for the 'mail' program, or any other basic command line MUA that I can use as part of a cronjob to send an email. What package would that be in?
[08:33] <Flannel> Scarey: The problem is after they say "does anyone know anything about [this]" you someone has to ask you to give actual question, and then you have to respond.  Makes support take a lot longer,
[08:33] <gilda> starenka: i am not overly sure on that i know i have bypassed issues like what your talking about using mount bind options
[08:34] <entropius> Quiescent: I set up PulseAudio, but it doesn't help
[08:34] <miyavix3> Question now is... am I S.O.L.?
[08:34] <Flannel> Scarey: Also makes people who glance in ocassionally less likely to be able to answer your question, because they have to be around to ask you to actually ask, and then around when you reply to actually read the question
[08:34] <gilda> miyavix3: you stated your connecting wirelessly right ? is it possible to just jack in a cable
[08:34] <starenka> gilda: can you clear this up for a n00b?
[08:34] <miyavix3> Not at the moment no...
[08:34] <entropius> Oddly enough holding down Alt-Tab to switch between windows constantly makes the sound stop skipping while the system is switching between windows
[08:34] <Quiescent> entropius: I'm not an expert at any of this, that's just what I did. Did look for "perfect pulseaudio setup" and follow all the instructions in there?
[08:35] <Quiescent> grrr
[08:35] <namegame> pins: what's the issue exactly, is the wireless not functioning at all?
[08:35] <Quiescent> the new flash10 beta doesn't install on x64
[08:35] <entropius> Quiescent: Yep.
[08:35] <Quiescent> I don't know then.
[08:35] <pins> namegame: nope
[08:35] <miyavix3> Ok well
[08:35] <miyavix3> Looks like I'm SOL for now
[08:36] <miyavix3> I'm gonna hook it up tomorrow
[08:36] <pins> namegame: wlan0     No scan results
[08:36] <miyavix3> For the meanwhile, I'll just use the trial version
[08:36] <pins> on iwlist scan
[08:36] <miyavix3> Thanks for your help guys.
[08:37] <namegame> pins: I'm using wireless and I get the same message
[08:37] <Scarey> Flannel, I see your point but you also argue against human nature (the good one) where it's polite to do as most do, rather than just enter a room and ask a question.
[08:37] <pins> but look at my ip address. 16* its not giving me 192*
[08:38] <Ontolog> I am trying to run "apt-get update" but I keep getting "Bad header line" errors. I even copied the sources.list file from a box that DOES work but I get the same result.
[08:39] <Scarey> Flannel, but perhaps in time at least a few ppl will have learned to do as requested but there'll always be new ppl who'll be making the same mistake and be corrected forever. Makes you think if it's worth the mention?
[08:39] <blarg_> beep beep
[08:39] <namegame> pins: that looks like a router error to me
[08:40] <pins> namegame: i was using it with windows vista before i installed ubuntu.
[08:40] <namegame> pins: if you enter that IP into a browser while wireless is on does it bring up anything?
[08:40] <Bodsda> Scarey, people(ppl) is spealt   p e o p l e
[08:40] <pins> which ip?
[08:41] <namegame> the 169 one on wlan0:avahi
[08:41] <Scarey> Bodsda, I know
[08:41] <pins> no, dead page.
[08:41] <Roy_Muzz> Hi, it seems that (even as root) I do not have permission to modify /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_congestion_control . Can anyone else here running ubuntu confirm that they can or cannot modify that file?
[08:42] <Bodsda> Scarey, good, then please spell correctly in future
[08:42] <pins> !wifi | pyrex
[08:42] <Scarey> Bodsda, why? I see no harm. Most chat language is altered and accepted even though it's not spelled correctly.
[08:42] <skygenetic> MY realplayer doesnt play the movie with the appropriate colour
[08:42] <skygenetic> anyone can help
[08:43] <rustychicken> is there a firefox extension for automatically making certain sites (like gmail) use ssl, so i dont have to type out the full url when accessing https://mail.google.com?
[08:43] <Ontolog> BAD HEADER LINE
[08:43] <Bodsda> Scarey, because this is IRC not IM. Some people will not understand what you mean by 'ppl'.

[08:44] <garval82> can someone help
[08:44] <pins> so if you added it as a bookmark, typing gmail will almost complete the link
[08:45] <Bodsda> Scarey, Im trying to ask you politely to spell properly. If you have a problem with this request we can take it to #ubuntu-ops
[08:45]  * dextone bbl reboot after updating my b0x
[08:45] <rustychicken> pins: is ff3 final available for gutsy?
[08:46] <Roy_Muzz> garval82, somtimes sound problems are best sorted by the #alsa channel
[08:46] <Scarey> Bodsda, I'm sorry. I had no idea there where spelling police present who decides wether or not an abbriviation is allowed. But I shall take your advice and spell people correctly and not speak of it again.
[08:46] <Bodsda> rustychicken, yes, i assume it is in the backports repo
[08:46] <gilda> lol i think bad spelling was prolific on irc waaaaay before it hit IM
[08:46] <mneptok> !lol > Scarey
[08:46] <Bodsda> thanks mneptok
[08:47] <pins> i have no idea. I thought firefox 3 was available almost 2months ago.
[08:47] <Bodsda> rustychicken, the backports repo allows older distrobutions to have acces to software in later distrobutions repos
[08:47] <chuy_max> !lol
[08:48] <namegame> rustychicken, you can download it from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/
[08:48] <rustychicken> Bodsda: is that the gutsy-backports repo in Synaptic?
[08:48] <mneptok> rustychicken: yes
[08:48] <Bodsda> rustychicken, yes, i think so
[08:49] <Bodsda> !backports | rustychicken
[08:49] <pins> what do i do if Add/Remove hangs while installing flashblock extension?
[08:49] <Bodsda> pins, use apt or synaptic
[08:50] <rustychicken> thats a lotta backports...
[08:51] <dumbdum> how do I clear a print que in Ubuntu Hardy?
[08:51] <mneptok> dumbdum: http://localhost:631
[08:52] <pins> Bodsda: how can i search apt-get specific app?
[08:53] <kili4n> will running java aplications quit, when i update JRE via update manager?
[08:53] <whitedox> I just installed hardy, and my resolution wont go higher then 640x480. Tried googling around, and nothing seems to work. Also, kind of new to linux if it matters.
[08:53] <Bodsda> pins, to search use    apt-cache search <appName>
[08:53] <dumbdum> Mneptok, thank you!
[08:53] <Twois10>  If am using tor/privoxy, does my isp know that i visited piratebay.org?
[08:54] <milligan_> Your ISP will see you traffic to the proxy, but not what the proxy sends. afaik.
[08:54] <pins> yeah, returns nothing.
[08:55] <Twois10> milligan_, so of the proxy ip is "<IP_ADDRESS>" they only see me going there?
[08:56] <kili4n> yes
[08:56] <Bodsda> pins, then the app doesnt exist or your getting the name wrong
[08:56] <pins> im just typing flash
[08:56] <dumbdum> mneptok, I forgot the location!! Would you be so kind?
[08:57] <pins> i used synaptic on my previous install and all typed was flash and brought me results back.
[08:57] <mneptok> dumbdum: http://localhost:631
[08:57] <mneptok> dumbdum: Firefox has this concept of "Bookamrks." you should check it out. :P
[08:57] <Bodsda> pins, then use synaptic
[08:57] <pins> thats what i use right now.
[08:58] <pins> and apt-get too.
[08:58] <havocstorm> hey guys
[08:58] <pins> none returned any results. i expanded my sources in synaptics.
[08:58] <havocstorm> can anyone watch the olympics on the NBC site
[08:58] <havocstorm> it's not working for me
[08:58] <user__> hey does anyone know the best program for burning .avi files to DVD?
[08:58] <havocstorm> apparently I need windows
[08:58] <pins> havocstorm: thats because it wants you to install silverlight.
[08:58] <mneptok> user__: DeVeDe
[08:58] <dumbdum> Thanks again, I'll jot it down this time!
[08:58] <pins> silverlight only works in windows
[08:59] <Twois10> havocstorm, no, you need mono
[08:59] <havocstorm> pins: gah, any way to work around this
[08:59] <Twois10> which i have not tried
[08:59] <havocstorm> twois10, mono?
[08:59] <user__> how about a program that will make Flash videos?
[08:59] <mneptok> user__: go tell Adobe to support the OS you use.
[08:59] <pins> havocstorm: havent found any.
[09:00] <__JamesDean__> NBC try MediaPlayerConnectivity for firefox
[09:00] <havocstorm> pins, NBC is a bunch of bastards
[09:00] <user__> lol i doubt they care about Ubuntu
[09:00] <mneptok> Twois10: Mono != Silverlight
[09:00] <pins> i think ms paid big $$$ to have it used on the site.
[09:00] <mneptok> Twois10: "Moonlight" is the Linux incarnation of Silverlight, and it is not yet released.
[09:00] <Twois10> mneptok, not true
[09:00] <mneptok> pins: "MSNBC" duh
[09:00] <whitedox> Anyway to easily get hardy to give me more screen resolutions? It refuses to go higher then 640x480. Thanks.
[09:00] <mneptok> Twois10: there is no Ubuntu package
[09:01] <mneptok> Twois10: thus, it does not exist for me
[09:01] <pins> mneptok: oh ya! :)
[09:01] <Twois10> mneptok, i don't know but i have one for opensuse
[09:01] <Ziroday> whitedox: make sure you have the correct drivers installed and see !fixres
[09:01] <mneptok> Twois10: considering Novell develops both Silverlight and SuSE, i don;t find that surprising
[09:01] <sriramoman> in aptoncd, if new versions of packages are auto-UNselected, will it create dependency problems if i use the cdrom in a freshly-installed ubuntu machine?
[09:01] <pins> novell developed it?
[09:02] <whitedox> !fixres
[09:02] <mneptok> Moonlight? tes.
[09:02] <mneptok> *yes
[09:02] <Twois10> I dont think novell developed it
[09:02] <generalsnus> http://www.mibbit.com/pb/i5BME9    i came over this post and script...  what do you guys think of this? will it bog down my system in any way?
[09:03] <havocstorm> hey guys
[09:03] <havocstorm> I found mono here
[09:03] <havocstorm> http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html
[09:03] <mneptok> Twois10: they develop Moonlight. more specifically, Miguel de Icaza is the project team lead for Moolight at Novell.
[09:03] <FloodBot1> havocstorm: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:03] <mneptok> havocstorm: Mono will not help you
[09:03] <havocstorm> but there's no debian or ubuntu build
[09:03] <havocstorm> what do I do?
[09:03] <Ziroday> havocstorm: mono is the repos
[09:03] <Ziroday> *is in
[09:03] <soulchild> Hi all, how do I deactivate the "resume from swap"-check at boot?
[09:03] <mneptok> havocstorm: it's included in Ubuntu. Tombay, F-Spot and other apps are built with Mono.
[09:03] <havocstorm> thanks
[09:04] <Quiescent> i'm extremely frustrated, been trying to install the new flash 10 on x64 for like 45 minutes now
[09:04] <havocstorm> mneptok, can you elaborate on why mono won't help me?
[09:04] <mneptok> havocstorm: because Mono is an application API, not a web content delivery mechanism
[09:04] <havocstorm> mneptok, gah...crap
[09:04] <Ziroday> soulchild: gimme a sec, let me try and find it for you
[09:04] <Quiescent> i do "sudo ./npconfig -i /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so" and it says "no appropriate viewer found"
[09:05] <Twois10> the only reason am not using mono moonlight is becuase my firefox is 32bit but my os is 64-bit, if i install 64-bit firefox, i can't get java to work, but mono needs other 64bit libraries. follow?
[09:05] <Quiescent> Twois10: not to mention flash
[09:05] <mneptok> Twois10: Mono has no relation to Firefox.
[09:05] <jjj> hi,i have a thinkpad x61, i want to install ubuntu in it,but i hear it was not supported will ,Is that true?
[09:06] <Twois10> flash works on my 64bit firefox, only java does not work
[09:06] <mneptok> Twois10: Mono = .NET
[09:06] <namegame> jjj: try a live CD before you install
[09:06] <mneptok> Twois10: Moonlight = Silverlight
[09:06] <Twois10> mneptok, i know i converted to .net code to mono c#
[09:06] <jjj> thanks
[09:06] <Twois10> converted some*
[09:06] <pins> jjj just installed on my lenovo y510
[09:06] <havocstorm> mneptok, does the live streaming run on silverlight, or does the app just detect for windows
[09:07] <mneptok> havocstorm: no idea. i've been watching the Olympics on TV.
[09:07] <pins> i need major help with my wifi. anyone want to jump it after i restart and look around?
[09:07]  * mneptok has a nice HDTV here in the Tokyo hotel
[09:07] <havocstorm> maybe I can screw with my firefox to make it change the header requests to say it's windows
[09:07] <pins> brb
[09:07] <Quiescent> great, google returns three results
[09:07] <Twois10> mneptok, i was talking about the moonlight firefox plugin.
[09:07] <mneptok> Twois10: which is not packaged for Ubuntu
[09:07] <Quiescent> havocstorm: look for the plugin user agent switcher
[09:08] <Twois10> am not sure since am not on ubuntu now
[09:08] <SonicComKid> Could someone please help me with a wireless issue with Hardy on an HP DV2917ca laptop?
[09:08] <Twois10> SonicComKid, is it broadcom chipset
[09:08] <SonicComKid> no, intel
[09:08] <SonicComKid> intel with wireless N
[09:09] <Twois10> I am awaiting my intel chipset mini pci after much trouble with broadcom
[09:09] <namegame> SonicComKid, what exactly is your issue?
[09:09] <dusty_> Anyone with experience using iptables module recent, could you explain this to me: http://rafb.net/p/XGD4zc77.html I am trying to figure it out, how long does an ip stay in the blacklist for ?
[09:09] <LSD|Ninja> the older 3945s worked out of the box, the 4965 might just need a kernel update. Plug it into a wired network, run the updates and see what happens
[09:10] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: and what is the chipset
[09:10] <SonicComKid> I can't get Ubuntu to connect to *any* wireless network.  I went to HP's website and apparently it IS a bloody broad
[09:11] <jussi01> !ohmy | Quiescent
[09:11] <SonicComKid> nevermind, boradband, not broadcom
[09:11] <sriramoman> in aptoncd, if new versions of packages are auto-UNselected, will it create dependency problems if i use the cdrom in a freshly-installed ubuntu machine?
[09:11] <namegame> lol
[09:11] <SonicComKid> "HP Broadband Wireless with Wireless LAN 802.11a/b/g/n"
[09:11] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: could you please pastebin the output of the command lspci
[09:12] <SonicComKid> Ziroday, how do I paste bin?
[09:12] <Ziroday> !pastebin > SonicComKid
[09:12] <Bodsda> !paste  SonicComKid
[09:12] <Twois10> !paste
[09:12] <SonicComKid> !paste
[09:12] <Ziroday> ha bet you all
[09:12] <whitedox> !fixres
[09:12] <generalsnus> Can anyone tell me how i can get usb-disks working with thinclients and AD authentication?
[09:12] <SonicComKid> ...?
[09:13] <SonicComKid> there it is, just a sec
[09:13] <Briareos_00> Hi all! I've got a problem with the GUI of my Hardy that should run as an LTSP-server on an IBM System x3650. The system boots normally but after loading the login screen doesn't appear. Instead the monitor goes in standby-mode. I am able to use the console with Ctrl+Alt+F1-F6. I am also able to access the LTSP-server with ssh -X (except for one time, I had to delete the /home/vl/.Xauthority which was recreated immediately and worked afterwards). Any idea
[09:13] <sriramoman> in aptoncd, will it be necessary to copy old versions of libraries and similar packages, even though they are unselected?
[09:13] <SonicComKid> http://paste.ubuntu.com/37362/
[09:14] <Ziroday> sriramoman: you are aware that this is not the aptoncd irc channel, we dont support aptoncd here
[09:14] <unop> !aptoncd
[09:14] <unop> Ziroday, we very well ought to
[09:15] <SonicComKid> any ideas?
[09:15] <namegame> SonicComKid: I have the exact same Wireless card and I have no problems
[09:15] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: youre chipset is a Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965, lemme see what more I can find on it
[09:15] <SonicComKid> what did you do to get it to connect to a WPA2 network?
[09:15] <SonicComKid> I know both SSID and password as it's my own network
[09:16] <my_haz> where is firefox 3 in the fiesty fawn apt repo?
[09:16] <namegame> SonicComKid, I think you can open up the network manager, and connect from there
[09:16] <my_haz> SonicComKid: have you read the wifi trubleshooting page on the wiki yet?
[09:16] <SonicComKid> namegame, I tried that, it wouldn't connect
[09:16] <hateball> my_haz, it probably isnt, if it's not backported
[09:17] <SonicComKid> my_haz, I'm unaware of that wiki page
[09:17] <SonicComKid> also I want to be able to get a list of wifi connections around me without having to need prior knowledge of the network. Is there anything better than wifi radar?
[09:17] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: that card should be supported out of the box, does it work in windows?
[09:17] <Quiescent> anyone know how to install the latest flash 10 in ff3?
[09:17] <Quiescent> on x64?
[09:17] <Kristopher> question - if i repartition the hdd during installation, does it erase the contents of the hdd?
[09:17] <SonicComKid> Ziroday, it works just fine in Vista
[09:17] <Quiescent> Kristopher, yes
[09:18] <Ziroday> Kristopher: if you resize it no, if you overwrite it yes
[09:18] <hateball> Quiescent, unpack the libflash.so and replace those on your system... Cant remember where they're located and am not on x64 atm
[09:18] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: does your laptop have a wireless off switch?
[09:18] <SonicComKid> Ziroday, it does, but the switch is 'on' and blue to indicate it's 'working'
[09:19] <Kristopher> ok. it wants to resize the partition, or split it into 2 partitions, but it says 27GB is not enough for ubuntu?
[09:19] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: well that card should definitly work ootb
[09:19] <SonicComKid> I tried with both Network and with wifi radar and can't get the damn thing to even attempt connection. I don't get it
[09:19] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: try turning wpa2 off on the router and then trying to connect to it
[09:20] <SonicComKid> if this isn't accepting WPA2 there's something seriously wrong
[09:20] <ramontayag> hi all. i have a question.. i'm a linux newbie so please bear with me.  i simply wanted init to startup this process called monit when monit would die, or when the computer would boot. however, i went to 2 different places and they said I need upstart to do it. therefore, here i am.  In init, I put my instructions to restart monit in /etc/inittab.  What's the equivalent of inittab in upstart?
[09:20] <SonicComKid> I am not going to have my network open
[09:20] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: only temporarily to narrow down the issue
[09:20] <SonicComKid> for me to turn wpa2 off my router will have to shut down and kill all my connections including here
[09:21] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: yes, however you can rejoin....
[09:21] <SonicComKid> in case I did an idiotic mistake, can you turn through how to connect to a wireless network please?\
[09:21] <SonicComKid> man I hate this stupid 'redesigned' keyboard, they shrunk my shift key and added to bar | keys for no reason -.-
[09:21] <namegame> the network manager should do it "automajically"
[09:22] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: using network manager
[09:22] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: also see this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/106129
[09:22] <SonicComKid> I had it manual, but also tried romeing
[09:22] <namegame> you might need to set the ESSID and password manually
[09:22] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: you may also want to try wicd
[09:23] <SonicComKid> what's wicd?
[09:23] <SonicComKid> and what's ESSID??
[09:23] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: another wireless manager
[09:23] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: the name of your wireless network
[09:23] <SonicComKid> isn't it just called SSID?
[09:24] <namegame> ESSID is a type of SSID
[09:25] <namegame> which refers to 802.11 wireless networks
[09:25] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: so are you turning off wpa2?
[09:25] <SonicComKid> I'm in network settings and just like last time I entered in my network into the ESSID field and specified WPA2
[09:25] <SonicComKid> and like before it acts like it connected but hasn't. If I yank out the Cat5 cable it'll drop me
[09:25] <Lusule> hi there :)  i'm having problems with the candido theme engine - i installed it but whenever i run a graphical program from terminal i get the error 'unable to locate theme engine in module_path 'candido'
[09:26] <namegame> hmm
[09:26] <SonicComKid> Is there ANY indication that it's successfully connected or not?
[09:27] <namegame> if you have a default GUI, you should see connection status bars
[09:27] <SonicComKid> it doesn't tell me aquired IP or anything to show I got connection
[09:27] <mehumot> I don't have a sound, on my loudspeaker icon (next clock) is red circle. I've installed ALSA yesterday, but in alsa config it's not my sound card, only text:  No supported PnP or PCI card found, please help me
[09:27] <SonicComKid> where?
[09:27] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: this is in?
[09:27] <SonicComKid> how can I tell if the wireless is working?
[09:27] <Ziroday> SonicComKid: if you can connect to the internet without etherne
[09:27] <Ziroday> *ethernet
[09:27] <SonicComKid> this is a fresh install of Ubuntu, all defaults
[09:28] <namegame> upper right hand corner then
[09:28] <rnd_> Hallo
[09:28] <Ziroday> rnd_: Hi
[09:28] <SonicComKid> there isn't any actual thing to actually TELL ME?
[09:28] <namegame> you should see bars, similar to those on cell phones
[09:28] <SonicComKid> even vista shows an icon to represent wireless connected
[09:28] <rockin_stan> Anyone with expiriences with the DELL XPS 1330?
[09:28] <namegame> Linux has one too
[09:28] <Ziroday> rockin_stan: just tell us the problem please
[09:29] <catfox> hi all. i have an external monitor connected to an ati video card (using the fglrx drivers, but not using compiz). when i open a window on the extended part of the desktop, dragging it is extremely slow. any ideas why that might be?
[09:29] <SonicComKid> WHERE??
[09:29] <Briareos_00> hi all! does anyone know what could be the reason that I won't get a GUI when starting up ubuntu? The only thing that happens is that the monitor goes in standby mode when the login screen should appear.
[09:29] <SonicComKid> namegame, WHERE?
[09:29] <whitman> SonicComKid, top right hand corner of the screen
[09:29] <glade88> Briareos_00: try typing startx or gdm at the terminal
[09:29] <namegame> !caps | SonicComKid
[09:30] <rockin_stan> Ziroday: No problems so far, thinkin about buying one...
[09:30] <Briareos_00> have tried already
[09:30] <SonicComKid> the icon near the clock is useless, it says squat about either connection and either of their statuses
[09:30] <glade88> Briareos_00: sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[09:30] <Ziroday> rockin_stan: ah right, easiest method is to use a live cd, you can also google the model with the word ubuntu and check out the laptop testing part of the wiki
[09:30] <DavidDavid> Marios need protect?
[09:31] <SonicComKid> I'm still asking where
[09:31] <SonicComKid> there is no indications
[09:31] <rockin_stan> Ziroday: Thanks, but the XPS 1330 is already sold with ubuntu preinstalled...
[09:31] <Briareos_00> glade88: should i make a restart afterwards?
[09:31] <whitedox> "sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange" is returning nothing. Yet I did install the xresprobe package
[09:32] <Ziroday> rockin_stan: ah then there should be no issues, you may want to check out the dell ubuntu prreinstalled part of the forums
[09:32] <glade88> Briareos_00: after installing ubuntu-desktop, do a sudo reboot
[09:32] <rockin_stan> Ziroday: thx, will do
[09:32] <Kristopher> if ubuntu can read ntfs, why is it suggested that i make a shared partition in fat32 (for sharing between windows and ubuntu)? i could just keep all the partitions ntfs
[09:32] <namegame> SonicComKid, it should look something similar to this http://kirsten.urbanzone.com/blog/uploads/misc/ubuntu_network_manager.png
[09:32] <glade88> Briareos_00: I think you have done the server/barebone installation instead of the desktop version.
[09:32] <SonicComKid> why can't I simply select my connection from a list of detected ones, give it the password, and go? why is it being over-complicated??
[09:32] <namegame> it isn't
[09:33] <Ziroday> Kristopher: because fat32 support is better
[09:33] <LSD|Ninja> SonicComKid: It should be exactly like that
[09:33] <LSD|Ninja> SonicComKid: you click the icon at hte top and select the one you want from teh drop-down list
[09:33] <glade88> SonicComKid: the nm-applet *does* show a list of detected wireless networks
[09:33] <LSD|Ninja> SonicComKid: getting to that point though, that's the killer
, speed-wise or error-wise?
[09:33] <DavidDavid> Marios careful, and buy insurance.
[09:33] <Briareos_00> no because the GUI did already work once
[09:33] <Ziroday> Kristopher: error wise
[09:34] <SonicComKid> namegame, I don't have anything even remotely like that
[09:34] <glade88> Briareos_00: okay, then just try reinstalling the metapackage..
[09:34] <Kristopher> hmm.. o.o
[09:34] <whitman> SonicComKid, do you have a manual switch on the laptop to turn on/off the wireless? If it's off you won't have an icon there.
[09:34] <SonicComKid> namegame, only option I have is 'connect to a protected wired network'
[09:35] <whitedox> "sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange" is returning nothing. Yet I did install the xresprobe package
[09:35] <Briareos_00> glade88: sorry for the n00by question but what is a metapackage? do you mean the ubuntu-desktop?
[09:35] <namegame> SonicComKid, pastebin the results of ifconfig -a
[09:35] <glade88> Briareos_00: yes
[09:36] <SonicComKid> http://paste.ubuntu.com/37365/
[09:36] <DavidDavid> Marios careful, and buy insurance, you can not run when meet real militants combat
[09:38] <SonicComKid> whitman, we already established that. My wifi is on
[09:38] <SonicComKid> wifi radar can detect networks with it
[09:38] <SonicComKid> but it won't connect and I can't get any wireless network lists with the stock Ubuntu stuff
[09:38] <Briareos_00> glade88: no its all the same. but when i entered my username and password i could see HDD-activity. this means that the GUI is there but just not displayed, doesn't it?
[09:39] <glade88> Briareos_00: you said: monitor goes to standby when login screen should appear. Can you login through GDM?
[09:40] <Phantomas> hello! how can i change some grub settings ?
[09:40] <SonicComKid> well.. seems I got more options when I changed it back to 'romeing' mode
[09:40] <namegame> SonicComKid, your wireless is connected to your router at <IP_ADDRESS>, so you do have a connection
[09:40] <Briareos_00> no i can't because the monitor goes in standby
[09:40] <SonicComKid> but I'm still not getting any listings of places
[09:41] <SonicComKid> namegame, but it doesn't work. If I pull out the wired connection firefox can't even load google
[09:41] <whitedox> This may sound noobish, but why is there no settings button in Firefox (like the one in the windows version) ? lol.
[09:41] <Phantomas> i want to remove some loaders which loads older kernels
[09:41] <glade88> Briareos_00: did you already reinstall ubuntu-desktop?
[09:41] <glade88> Phantomas: install startupmanager
[09:41] <glade88> Phantomas: and remove displaying of older kernels
[09:42] <Phantomas> glade88: ok thanks
[09:42] <glade88> Phantomas: alternatively, edit the file /boot/grub/menu.lst and comment out older kernels
[09:42] <Briareos_00> glade88: yes and a reboot --> all the same, but then i tried to login blind --> HDD-activity
[09:42] <Phantomas> glade88: this is better :) thanks
[09:42] <glade88> Phantomas: np..
[09:42] <namegame> SonicComKid, my last resort when dealing with wireless issues is to run the following in the terminal iwconfig wlan0 ESSID Password, where ESSID and Password are the credentials of your network
[09:43] <glade88> Briareos_00: at tty1 (ctrl+alt+f1), do sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[09:43] <CITguy08> does anybody know of an application to open a .DLL in linux?
[09:43] <glade88> Briareos_00: I think you messed up your resolution
[09:43] <namegame> SonicComKid, when that's done enter dhcpcd wlan0
[09:43] <KenSentMe> Can anybody say anything about running Ubuntu on a Macbook? I know there is a wiki about installing, but besides the problems/solutions stated there, does it give any other annoyancies and stuff?
[09:43] <Briareos_00> glade88: can i also do this via ssh?
[09:44] <glade88> Briareos_00: idk
[09:44] <PeNayNay> So I'm debating which distro to get, 32bit or 64bit. Anybody have any comments that might help me figure this out ? I do have a 64bit CPU.
[09:44] <SonicComKi1> I don't know what did it, but I'm in. Thanks namegame
[09:44] <DavidDavid> I am developing AI, or I have to find some exist software to use
[09:45] <SonicComKi1> now I just got to fight to see if I can get this linux equilvent of netstumbler to work..
[09:45] <glade88> Briareos_00: I advise that you post this at the forums too. You may get more assistance there..
[09:45] <Briareos_00> glade88: it says "md5sum: /etc/X11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory" allthought it is there
[09:46] <namegame> SonicComKid, no problem, I was just trying to avoid using the command line for as long as possible
[09:46] <DavidDavid> depend on development in Linux
[09:46] <glade88> Briareos_00: aww.. what exactly you did before you had this problem?
[09:46] <SonicComKi1> I really don't know why it wasn't working at first though which is what really irks me..
[09:46] <ThreeFinity> So I'm debating which distro to get, 32bit or 64bit. Anybody have any comments that might help me figure this out ? I do have a 64bit CPU.
[09:46] <SonicComKi1> easy question.. how do I disable this infernal tap-click on my touch pad?
[09:46] <ikonia> ThreeFinity: how much ram do you have
[09:46] <Briareos_00> glade88: install ltsp-server
[09:47] <ThreeFinity> 2gb ddr2
[09:47] <glade88> SonicComKil: install gsynaptics
[09:47] <ikonia> ThreeFinity: 32bit
[09:47] <joaopinto> ThreeFinity, 64 bits
[09:47] <ikonia> ThreeFinity: what is your primary function of the machine
[09:47] <echo6> SonicComKi1: IIRC password is not supported currently under iwconfig, if you are using wpa take a look at wpa_supplicant
[09:47] <SonicComKi1> nevermind, found it
[09:47] <ThreeFinity> desktop OS, maybe some light graphical work, VMWare/wine for gaming
[09:47] <Briareos_00> glade88: at least i think so. i did it all via ssh
[09:47] <ikonia> ThreeFinity: I would suggest 32bit then
[09:47] <ThreeFinity> kk, ty
[09:47] <ikonia> ThreeFinity: simpley as the gain against the hassle for your needs is not worth it
[09:48] <SonicComKi1> seems swscanner crashes every time I try to use it
[09:48] <seroo> How can I use the find command to search for *wav, *mp3, *ogg files, instead of just one file extension?
[09:48] <ikonia> seroo: find / -name '*.ogg' -print
[09:48] <glade88> Briareos_00: post a thread at the forums. It's kinda going out of scope for me..
[09:48] <Briareos_00> glade88: do you think it would be possible to connect via vnc?
[09:48] <joaopinto> ThreeFinity, I would suggest 64 bits, simply for the fact that you will be using a more recent technology, I had no problems with it, but you also should not expect advantage over 32 bits
[09:48] <ikonia> seroo: instead of just one, ls -lR | grep ogg | grep wav | grep mp3
[09:49] <seroo> ikex, I want to use find for this matter
[09:49] <ikonia> joaopinto: wine running 32bit games can be an issue on ubuntu 64bit
[09:49] <ikex> >_<!
[09:49] <glade88> Briareos_00: no, since you need the GUI on the server to work to connect to it..
[09:49] <seroo> ikex, oopsie
[09:49] <ikex> ^-^
[09:49] <seroo> ikonia,  I want to use find for this matter
[09:49] <ikonia> seroo: then read the man page
[09:50] <Briareos_00> glade88: what about the resolution problem you suggested?
[09:50] <lina> i have a small problem... grub>root (hd0,0)  says Error 22: No such partition... but everytime i boot i have to modify it on the bootscreen from (hd1,0) to (hd0,0)... what am i doing wrong?
[09:50] <joaopinto> ikonia, hum, never read about it, can you provide me a link about suchs problems ?
[09:50] <ikonia> lina: look at your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:50] <ikonia> joaopinto: I'm not aware of a link off the top of my head
[09:51] <ikonia> lina: sorry, /boot/grub/devices.map
[09:51] <ikonia> lina: apologies, my typo
[09:51] <glade88> Briareos_00: since you have a missing xorg.conf, im stumped at this. The resolution problem should have been fixed by reconfiguring xserver-xorg
[09:51] <joaopinto> if there is an issue he can always run a 32 bits wine from a chroot, but again, I have never seen wine as being an adoption blocker for 64 bits
[09:52] <ikonia> joaopinto: for his needs I see no reason to make it hard with some of the less supported software on 64bit,
[09:52] <Briareos_00> glade: ok, thx anyway
[09:53] <LiTHiUM0XiD3> can anybody here assist me with gettin proper sound support on an Nvidia MCP67 chipset based sound card?
[09:53] <glade88> Briareos_00: np.
[09:53] <joaopinto> ikonia, I see too much comments about hard it is to use a 64  bits, most of such comments are related to problems which were resolved on the last year
[09:53] <lina> ikonia, according to that im supposed to have root (hd1,0)... but at bootup that is the setting... but wont boot so i have to change it to hd0,0
[09:54] <ikonia> joaopinto: I'm not saying he "will" have problems, he's welcome to use it, I'm giving my opinon to him as you have given yours
[09:54] <joaopinto> and my suggestion was not based on needs, almost none of us need a 64 bits, however we should use it to make sure the technology will become usable
[09:55] <ikonia> joaopinto: he's welcome to use it, but I see no reason / benifit for hime to use it, he didn't sound a confident user so my advice is based on making his life as easy as possible
[09:56] <ikonia> lina: so your device.map shows hd1,0 as your correct partition, any chance you could pastebin it so we can see the same file while chatting about it ?
[09:56] <mneptok> joaopinto: just using something doesn't make it more usable. if that were true, Vista would boot in 12 nanoseconds and do your dishes
[09:56] <zupb> guys, how i can make a bridge besides two network interfaces? i have <IP_ADDRESS> on eth0:1 and <IP_ADDRESS> on tap0?
[09:56] <LiTHiUM0XiD3> it would seem i cant get the alsa driver to work..
[09:56] <LiTHiUM0XiD3> everything sound related is really really clippy
[09:57] <joaopinto> mneptok, please do not compare open source development to Vista, on open source, the user count/feedback matters
[09:57] <lina> ikonia, devices.map: (hd0)	/dev/sda      (hd1)	/dev/sdb         got linux on sdb
[09:57] <ikonia> lina: can you put it in a pastebin please.
[09:57] <mneptok> joaopinto: thanks for letting me know. i'm really new to this whole "Linux" thing.
[09:57] <mneptok> *sigh*
[09:57] <ikonia> lina: it's a little mall formatted and hard to reference
[09:58] <lina> ikonia, it contains 2 lines...
[09:58] <joaopinto> mneptok, you are welcome :)
[09:58] <ikonia> lina: yes, and it's come falformmted
[09:59] <samyboy> Hello, I'm getting some "otp-md5 484 ka0605" when trying to login with ssh. How do I login?
[09:59] <ikonia> samyboy: getting what ?
[09:59] <Lifeisfunny> I'm having a problem ...   a for instance:   I move a jpeg file from one folder to another in gThumb using the Move feature in the right-button menu.    I do the same to move another and I get the child window using the Move feature but no entries of folders that have resided in that child window in the past.  ...... another:  I use streamtuner and lose my bookmarks after having closed that gui.
[09:59] <samyboy> ikonia: otp-md5 484 ka0605 ext, Response:
[09:59] <mneptok> joaopinto: i hope to get hired by a Linux company one day. or maybe contribute to an open source project.
[09:59] <ikonia> samyboy: where ? when yo login ?
[09:59] <LiTHiUM0XiD3> wow..... does nobody provide support here?
[09:59] <ikonia> samyboy: not sure I follow your situation
[10:00] <lina> ikonia, http://paste.ubuntu.com/37371/
[10:00] <ikonia> LiTHiUM0XiD3: try waiting longer than 30 seconds
[10:00] <samyboy> yes, it is a "one time password". I didn't know it was enabled on ubuntu
[10:00] <mneptok> joaopinto: for instance, i'm hoping 2005 comes soon so i can be a GNOME sysadmin. i plan on being hired by Canonical in 2006. i just need to wait.
[10:00] <ikonia> samyboy: you mean ssh keys ? or the actual pasword /etc/passwd for the user
[10:01] <namegame> !repeat | LiTHiUM0XiD3
[10:01] <samyboy> ikonia: I mean "one time password"... some generated password for each connection.
[10:01] <joaopinto> mneptok, I noticed you have very smart comments, can we skip those ? It's turning offtopic :)
[10:01] <ikonia> samyboy: what is the exact prompt you get
[10:02] <mneptok> joaopinto: i should probably be reported to the ops.
[10:02] <samyboy> ikonia: http://pastebin.com/d531ca2f4
[10:02] <ikonia> samyboy: now I've never seen that enabled in ubuntu
[10:03] <ikonia> samyboy: are you %100 sure your logging into an ubuntu server/machine
[10:03] <samyboy> however this is a fresh install O_O
[10:03] <ikonia> samyboy: a fresh install on the server or the client ?
[10:03] <samyboy> the home server i'm trying to connect (I'm currently at work)
[10:03] <samyboy> to*
[10:04] <ikonia> samyboy: are you %100 certain your connecting to the correct host as thats not a default feature on the sshd_config on an ubuntu server
[10:04] <ikonia> samyboy: what version of ubuntu did you install on the server
[10:04] <iqson716> hey I'm now in Live cd and want to create a primary ntfs partition, It's possible to switch swap off and change it to logical drive?
[10:04] <samyboy> 8.04
[10:04] <ikonia> samyboy: can't be %100 clean install or the right host then, thats not a default option
[10:04] <Slart> LiTHiUM0XiD3: you'll probably get better (and faster) answers if you supply some more info. Are there any error-messages (dmesg, /var/log/syslog are two places to check)? What are you trying to do? How are you doing it? What are the results? does it work if you boot from a live cd? what hardware is involved? chipsets/modelnbrs etc are good here.. are you following some kind of howto?.. put all this into one big question.. repeat every 5 minutes or so if you do
[10:05] <samyboy> ikonia: thanks for your help
[10:06] <sinichi> dddd
[10:06] <Slart> LiTHiUM0XiD3: and on a more specific note.. alsa is weird sometimes.. I've yet to see someone here say "I know ALSA, this is why what you're doing doesn't work and here's how to fix it".. there is an #alsa channel too.. but it's very sleepy
[10:06] <Lifeisfunny> I'm having a problem ...   a for instance:   I move a jpeg file from one folder to another in gThumb using the Move feature in the right-button menu.    I do the same to move another and I get the child window using the Move feature but no entries of folders that have resided in that child window in the past.  ...... another:  I use streamtuner and lose my bookmarks after having closed that gui.
[10:06] <iqson716> may I change swap to logical partition?
[10:07] <ikonia> iggdawg: sure
[10:08] <Lifeisfunny> thanks for nothing
[10:10] <lina> ikonia, http://paste.ubuntu.com/37371/
[10:10] <ikonia> lina: ok - so linux is on /dev/sdb ?
[10:11] <lina> ikonia, yup
[10:11] <ikonia> lina: and you don't have a seperate boot partition ?
[10:11] <ikonia> lina: as in /boot
[10:11] <lina> /dev/sdb1 mountpoint /    Flags Boot
[10:12] <ikonia> lina: , no I mean you've not created a seperate /boot partition ?
[10:12] <ikonia>  /boot hands off /
[10:12] <ikonia> hangs
[10:12] <Wimpie> Hello guys, I'm trying to install Phpmyadmin only I can't find a good guide on the Ubuntu forums... Can somebody link me a good guide or help me with the commands :)
[10:12] <ikonia> Wimpie: install the package phpmyadmin
[10:13] <Wimpie> is that enought ?
[10:13] <lina> ikonia, doesn't look like it
[10:14] <echo6> Wimpie: You also need to setup the database and its tables, usually something like mysql -u root -p < /usr/share/webapps/phpmyadmin/<VERSION>/sqlscripts/mysql/<VERSION>_create.sql
[10:14] <Wimpie> ok thanks :)
[10:16] <hfdsx> Hi everyone, how can i get the same effect as 'hibernate' does, but do a soft reboot instead of shutdown?
[10:17] <hfdsx> i have dual boot, and sometimes i need to use windows for games, but i don't want to loose my session
[10:17] <afief> echo6, weird I always install it from the package manager and it works(no need to import anything), my guess is that the mysql-server is missing(phpmyadmin depends only on the client)
[10:19] <hfdsx> i did some google research on it, but didn't manage to get any useful information..
[10:19] <echo6> afief: I don't rely on the package manager to do everything for me.
[10:21] <Wimpie> I got now Apache, Mysql, do I need aswell a Php thing or is that inbuilded in Apache.. sorry for this nab question but I'm just a beginner in Linux server part..
[10:21] <afief> echo6, sure, but phpmyadmin is a development tool, not a mission critical app
[10:21] <joaopinto> Wimpie, php is a module, you will need to install it
[10:21] <joaopinto> !lamp > Wimpie
[10:21] <Wimpie> k
[10:21] <grace_> :O
[10:22] <grace_> hello everyone
[10:22] <Wimpie> thanks
[10:23] <whitedox> !fixres
[10:23] <altherior> hello all people
[10:24] <altherior> sorry my english is very bad
[10:24] <grace_> hi :)
[10:24] <simso> hey guys i'm having some issues with the ati catalyst driver 8.6 and 8.7 as well. my graphics card is the 4850 and when i install the drivers i get an out of range error every time and have to revert back to the vesa drivers any idea of what would be the problem?
[10:24] <grace_> je tu nejakej cech????
[10:25] <paigeadele> grace_: recompile
[10:25] <altherior> I'm a question. Only can root user mount hd extern in ubuntu?
[10:25] <echo6> afief: I don't see phpmyadmin as a development tool, it is more for administrating mysql
[10:25] <altherior> Can someone help me please?
[10:25] <hfdsx> is there any way to tell pm-hibernate to restart instead of shutting down?
[10:25] <paigeadele> altherior: group it depends youre in
[10:27] <ikonia> lina: be iterested in your re-applying grub to the mbr, more so if you are %105 certain that linux is on /dev/sdb
[10:27] <altherior> ok I have a problem, now when I want mount my hd usb, only can I do with sudo, but I would like do with my user. User is in group root
[10:28] <paigeadele> altherior: ADD YOUR ACCOUNT TO THE CDROM GROUP
[10:28] <lina> ikonia, got my linux install on the 200gb... and according to GParted the 200gb is /dev/sdb
[10:28] <paigeadele> gawd
[10:28] <altherior> ok I going to try paigeadele
[10:28] <paigeadele> :)
[10:28] <echo6> lina: what is on /dev/sda?
[10:29] <ikonia> lina: check it out with fdisk -l
[10:29] <ikonia> lina: try mounting it also to confirm
[10:29] <simso> altherior, have you considered adding your drive to the fstab file?
[10:29] <pierluca08> ciao a tutti
[10:29] <afief> echo6, dunno, I usually keep it on my PC, never on live servers. In case I need to do anything with the database I either do it from the mysql CLI or import the data locally and do it
[10:30] <lina> /dev/sda is my 500gb.. where i want to install winxp to play some games :P
[10:30] <cabral> obexftp -b -l gives Operation alreddy in progress error
[10:31] <echo6> afief: Yes, I wouldn't but it on an internet server, on my LAN yes.
[10:32] <marius> hi, is there a terminal command represent th "aktivate/deaktivate wirless lan" funktion in the nm-applet?
[10:32] <echo6> lina: What is your entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[10:33] <joaopinto> marius, I think it is equivalent to ifconfig device up/down
[10:33] <lina> echo6, http://paste.ubuntu.com/37377/
[10:34] <lina> echo6, haven't changed anything
[10:35] <echo6> lina: and when you boot you have to edit (hd1,0) to (hd0,0) to boot?
[10:35] <altherior> I can mount with my user a hd usb yet
[10:35] <lina> echo6, yes
[10:35] <marius> joaopinto, but if i use ifconfig ath0 down, the wlan doesnt deaktivate the signal goesdown to 30 %
[10:36] <marius> joaopinto, but if i use ifconfig ath0 down, the wlan doesnt deaktivate the signal goesdown to 30 %, and to reaktivet it i musst use the nm applet
[10:36] <echo6> lina: can you supply the output of the command "mount" on its own?
[10:36] <lina> echo6, how do i do that?
[10:37] <echo6> from the terminal type mount, copy and paste the result into pastebin
[10:37] <lina> echo6, http://paste.ubuntu.com/37378/
[10:37] <speener> how's it goin?
[10:38] <echo6> lina: can you do the same for cat /etc/fstab
[10:39] <Wimpie> !phpmyadmin > Wimpie
[10:39] <ikonia> Wimpie: just install the phpmyadmin package
[10:39] <ikonia> Wimpie: I mentioned this earlier
[10:40] <lina> echo6, http://paste.ubuntu.com/37379/
[10:40] <mneptok> having PHPmyadmin admin your box is like having children guard your candy
[10:40] <Wimpie> yeah but I can't find the package thing I'm a beginner in Ubuntu server part
[10:40] <anthy> anthy
[10:40] <ikonia> lina: I would re-apply grub to the mbr and see if it errors when you assign (hd1,0) as the root
[10:41] <ikonia> Wimpie: why are you using ubuntu server, the ubuntu desktop product is better aimed at new users
[10:41] <zamanfou> how can I get the title text of the active window?
[10:41] <ikonia> Wimpie: also - you don't have to "find" the package just type in the package name for installation
[10:41] <lina> ikonia, and how to i do that? (i kinda suck at this)
[10:41] <ikonia> lina: no problem, "sudo grub"
[10:41] <echo6> lina: grub gets its device list from the BIOS boot order, also check that.  Another thing worth trying is the map argument within the grub config file
[10:42] <Wimpie> ikonia: Thanks I found it now :)
[10:42] <ikonia> Wimpie: I'd strongly suggest you use the desktop install
[10:42] <ikonia> Wimpie: it's much more aimed at home PC hardware and new users
[10:43] <echo6> lina: there is nothing wrong with your config, so the only thing I can think of is that it is your BIOS boot order or your boot selection is confusing grub...just a thought
[10:43] <iqson716> I can't change swap to logical partition :s
[10:43]  * null_byte listens to Behemoth - At the left hand ov god.
[10:43] <ikonia> echo6: I think it installed grub before device.map was generated (my opinion)
[10:43] <Flannel> null_byte: please turn that off
[10:43] <Wimpie> I will look if its gets any harder I will go to the desktop thing
[10:43] <lina> echo6, when i had xp installed... the only way to get grub to load was to swap the hdd boot order... that might b the issue
[10:44] <echo6> ikonia: Yes, good point, in which case re-installing grub should fix it..as you have suggested
[10:44] <ikonia> echo6: ahhh there we have the answer, one line above
[10:45] <echo6> lina: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto read the command line section
[10:45] <lina> echo6, yay :P Service Temporarily Unavailable
[10:45] <dimitris> well ok
[10:45] <lina> worked now :P
[10:46] <echo6> lina: cool :-)
[10:46] <amx109> when i go to install ubuntu via the live cd, i cant get it to go any further than just after the initial splash screen
[10:46] <amx109> it just bombs out to a initramfs prompt
[10:46] <amx109> can anyone suggest a workaround?
[10:47] <jabba> hello
[10:47] <lina> echo6, thats pretty much the same info i got from http://apcmag.com/how_to_dual_boot_linux_and_windows_xp_linux_installed_first.htm?page=5
[10:48] <grace_> hello Im just new at this - i wanna know how i can join and irc chat on one site
[10:48] <jabba> can somone tell me it it is possible at all to fork() in an pthread?
[10:48] <AmirEldor> grace_: which site
[10:48] <dobblego> !java
[10:48] <echo6> lina: I take it you have it fixed?
[10:48] <jabba> *if it is possiible
[10:48] <ikonia> jabba: join ##c++
[10:48] <julian_> anyone has an idea how to uninstall the free-av avira under ubuntu? installing was easy but cant find something to uninstall
[10:48] <dobblego> !java firefox
[10:48] <grace_> -AmirEldor:   http://tracker.cztorrent.net/irc/?rule=irc   this
[10:49] <dobblego> what's the deal with Java in firefox these days?
[10:49] <lina> echo6, i can reboot and check :P
[10:49] <ikonia> julian_: how did you install it
[10:49] <julian_> script in the avira package
[10:49] <AmirEldor> grace_ is this java?
[10:49] <Wimpie> Thanks the phpmyadmin works now ;)
[10:49] <ikonia> julian_: read the script and what it does, then undo it
[10:49] <amx109> i cant install ubuntu with the live cd - it bombs out to the initramfs prompt. can anybody help?
[10:49] <ikonia> julian_: thats one of the draw backs of not using a package manager
[10:50] <Wimpie> !cpanel > Wimpie
[10:50] <grace_> -AmirEldor: how i know im really stupid
[10:50] <julian_> ikonia, i looked through the script but cant find something to uninstall
[10:50] <gnumm> amx109: you could try the alernate install cd
[10:50] <xnv> amx109: Have you checked the Google search results?
[10:50] <julian_> ikonia, avira wasnt in the distros so ;)
[10:50] <AmirEldor> grace_: why don't you join the IRC chat using PIDGIN or XCHAT
[10:50] <grace_> -AmirEldor: i think yes but im not sure about that
[10:50] <ikonia> julian_: well, you can either work through the script, or contact the avira vendors and ask them for support
[10:50] <AmirEldor> grace_ or install java from sun microsystems (search your synaptic)
[10:50] <amx109> xnv: yea, nothing useful. casper.log complains about there being no media in one of the /dev/sxx devices
[10:51] <grace_> -AmirEldor: i want to use pidgin but in add/remove aplications it says it cant be happened when i go to synaptic i cannot see any problem

[10:52] <AmirEldor> grace_ are you sure you join the right channel? you click buddies > join chat > IRC channel name with prepending #
[10:53] <xnv> grace_: What IRC client are you using right now?
[10:53] <TeslaTony> How can I get my updates to install from the command line?
[10:53] <ikonia> TeslaTony: sudo apt-get upgrade
[10:53] <ikonia> TeslaTony: sudo apt-get update
[10:53] <ikonia> TeslaTony: man apt-get
[10:53] <grace_> -AmirEldor: i have tried it - cannot find that channel  or it is by me - im really new at this :(
[10:54] <Ben___> hey its a bit off topic, anyone ever seen a file called enc four.exe that could be causing probs on a computer
[10:54] <grace_> -xnv: XChat gnome irc chat
[10:54] <gnumm> use apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:54] <ikonia> Ben___: very offtopic, please join an appropriate channel, such as ##windows
[10:54] <Ben___> sorry
[10:54] <ikonia> Ben___: thanks
[10:54] <lina> echo6, swapping the drives in bios again made it say "Failed to detect boot device, please restart or insert boot device. Press any key to continue"
[10:54] <xnv> grace_: http://www.google.com/search?name=f&hl=en&q=xchat+tutorial
[10:55] <ikonia> lina: because the mbr is on the other disk
[10:55] <echo6> lina: what *he said
[10:55] <grace_> -xnv: thx i will have a look at it
[10:55] <TeslaTony> ikonia: Got it. Thanks
[10:56] <lina> echo6, ikonia,  so changing it back to the way it was when installing linux isnt an option?
[10:56] <ikonia> lina: sure it is, but you'll need to apply a boot sector to the mbr of the disk you want to boot from
[10:56] <gnumm> does it make any difference on ubuntu using apt-get upgrade or dist-upgrade?
[10:56] <echo6> lina: re-install grub, but dont forget how your /etc/fstab is configured
[10:57] <ikonia> echo6: fstab is uuid based - so shouldn't be a problem
[10:57] <ikonia> echo6: good call though
[10:57] <echo6> lina: ikonia, yes good point :)
[10:58] <lina> echo6, ikonia,  ok 1 last question.. can i change the "prerendered" text in menu.lst to say (hd0,0) instead of instead of 1,0?
[10:58] <lina> or that will screw up things?
[10:58] <echo6> ikonia: except he isnt using UUID for his 500Gb
[10:58] <ikonia> lina: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:58] <ikonia> echo6: not a core file system, so donesn't matter
[10:58] <ikonia> easy to fix
[10:59] <echo6> ikoina: Agreed but it is worth mentioning that /etc/fstab needs editing if he wants it at that mount point
[10:59] <ikonia> echo6: of course, as I said "good call
[10:59] <cyphase> what would be the best way to mount a temporary filesystem that uses RAM instead of a hard drive?
[11:01] <echo6> ikoina: Which I missed whislt doing 101 other things ;-)

[11:08] <xnv> Wimpie: Line 417
[11:08] <Lifeisfunny> ahhh my attitude
[11:08] <jazon> ikonia: thx :-)
[11:09] <Lifeisfunny> if you want my attitude to change, tell Ikonia to lay off
[11:09] <Flannel> Lifeisfunny: Quit it.
[11:10] <lina> echo6, what was that about editing? stupid tv stole my attention
[11:10] <darius> how do I play files with file extention .mid in totem?
[11:11] <kibibyte>  how to redirect frxample localhost to www.yahoo.com ?
[11:11] <Lifeisfunny> w/ 1291 users         two might know what's going on but who knows when they'll be back
[11:12] <xnv> darius: Do you have to play them in totem, or do you just want to be able to play them?
[11:12] <ikonia> Lifeisfunny: I've asked you politly in a private message to stop with this attitude, now I'm asking you a final time to stop
[11:12] <Lifeisfunny> I'm wondering why I close my client and lose my server list
[11:12] <Flannel> Lifeisfunny: If you're asking how long you should wait before repeating your question:  half an hour or so.
[11:12] <ae> what permissions (for security) should a php file have on a webserver?
[11:12] <ikonia> ae: depends what permissions the webserver running them needs
[11:12] <ikonia> ae: normally just execute of the webserver owner
[11:13] <ae> ikonia: is that 755?
[11:13] <Lifeisfunny> Flannel, thanks,  that's the first time I've ever heard of anything along that matter
[11:13] <cambazz> hello what is the package name for sun 6 jdk
[11:13] <Flannel> ae: you only need read permissions from the webserver
[11:13] <ikonia> ae: 500 should do it
[11:13] <Flannel> ae: that'd be 644
[11:13] <Flannel> ikonia: You only need read.
[11:14] <Wimpie> What is the command from finding me own network IP ? I did ifconfig but couldn't find a good one only <IP_ADDRESS> (what localhost is)
[11:14] <ikonia> Flannel: I thought php needed execute too
[11:14] <tech0007> what are backports? is it safe to enabel them in sources.list?
[11:14] <Flannel> ikonia: Nope, the interpreter just reads
[11:14] <ikonia> Flannel: fair enough, I'll bow on that one
[11:14] <ae> Flannel: ikonia: thanks for the info
[11:15] <jussi01> Lifeisfunny: if you want to discus the rules, please feel free to join us in #ubuntu-ops  - otherwise, please read the following link and keep this channel free for support.
[11:15] <jussi01> !guidelines > Lifeisfunny
[11:15] <DistroJockey> !backports | tech0007
[11:15] <jasdevan> cambazz: sun-java6-sdk      if you type "sudo apt-get install sun-" and hit tab twice, it'll show you all the possibilities.
[11:15] <Flannel> tech0007: Usually you don't want to enable the backports repository, no
[11:15] <tech0007> Flannel:  why?
[11:16] <nyarla> anybody knows if trackerd (hardy/gnome) can index firefox3 history?
[11:17] <jazon> in case anyone here knows, I have a usr5420 tat I am trying to make work in feisty on a powerPC ... compile fails with rndis_wlan and ndiswrapper is apparently not an option for PPC ...
[11:17] <Flannel> tech0007: They aren't tested nearly as much as regular ones, and also can bring in large functionality changes, which isn't always compatable with everything.
[11:18] <Wimpie> nvm I fount the good IP :)
[11:18] <Wimpie> found*
[11:19] <tech0007> Flannel: if OOo 3.0 will be included in intrepid, will it also be included in hardy as a backport? just confused...
[11:19] <duncan_busy> anyone here using xchat?
[11:19] <duncan_busy> I have a question about a setting I can't find.
[11:19] <Wimpie> I did !ftp at the Ubottu but he only gave cleints are there also possible ways to config a FPT(server)
[11:19] <felek> Ktoś z Polski?
[11:19] <Slart> !ftpd
[11:19] <jussi01> !pl
[11:19] <Flannel> tech0007: no, stuff doesn't automatically get backported.  Backports are unofficially done by people who feel like it, basiclaly.  Firefox 3 final still isn't in -backports for Gutsy
[11:20] <gvk> That thing crashed in a week more than fx2 crashed in a year.
[11:20] <duncan_busy> Flannel, any idea why Intrepid doesn't have OOo3.0?
[11:20] <acp_> hi, I have config my dad phone to be use as modem by his ubuntu using wvdial. its working fine except that I have to run sudo wvdial on the terminal which my dad dont want that I plan to create a luncher but how will I pass the password in my command?
[11:21] <Wimpie> Thanks ftpd is the good one :/ me bad\
[11:21] <duncan_busy> acp_, have you tried it? I think it will ask iteself. Try a test launchaer and see.
[11:21] <Slart> acp_: you can make sudo use a file for input and put the password in that file.. (NB!.. cleartext password in a file isn't a good thing)
[11:21] <Flannel> duncan_busy: You'd have to ask in #ubuntu+1
[11:22] <duncan_busy> Flannel, thanks. Can you answer an xchat question?
[11:22] <Flannel> duncan_busy: Just because it doesn't have it now doesn't mean it wont, although import deadline has passed.
[11:22] <Flannel> duncan_busy: but they'll be able to tell you all about it in +1
[11:22] <Flannel> duncan_busy: You'd have to ask the question :)
[11:23] <acp_> k thanks,Il try ur suggestion
[11:24] <moldy> hi
[11:24] <moldy> i cannot use "unlock" in users-admin, it's greyed out
[11:24] <moldy> i have found some similiar bug reports via google, but no working solution yet (8.04.1)
[11:26] <ulaas> hi! I have upgraded dapper to hardy on raid1 with  a degraded config and i have trouble booting. dpkg configure fails with lilo config complaining about -G switch
[11:27] <duncan_busy> Flannel, I have mentioned it in #ubuntu+1 - it was one of Mark's planned features if I remember right. And it runs find for me on Hardy.
[11:27] <Flannel> duncan_busy: I meant re: xchat
[11:28] <duncan_busy> Flannel, do you know if there is a setting in xchat to stop all channels from recording join/part messages?
[11:28] <Flannel> duncan_busy: I'm not sure about "recording" but if you mean displaying, yeah.
[11:28] <duncan_busy> Flannel, I can only do it one channel at a time and the setting is reset when I restart xchat.
[11:28] <Slart> !ignorejoin
[11:28] <Slart> bah
[11:29] <duncan_busy> Flannel, I don't want any of those messages in the chat window, for all channels, ever.
[11:29] <Flannel> duncan_busy: /set irc_conf_mode 1
[11:29] <Flannel> duncan_busy: I believe that should persist, but I can't tell you for sure.
[11:29] <duncan_busy> Flannel, is that a preference I'm telling the server directly?
[11:29] <Flannel> duncan_busy: No, thats an xchat setting
[11:30] <duncan_busy> Flannel, i'll try it and let you know. thanks
[11:30] <p4_xxx> hi, i have been reading a lot about how can i configure an account user to restric them in only see her/his home directory and not to see other user account and surf around them but im confused, i created an account with the name guest without privileges but with this account im able to see everything on other users account. can someone help if is it possible to achieve this in ubuntu?
[11:30] <ikonia> p4_xxx: are you looking at chrooting ?

[11:31] <wols> p4_xxx: ls -l /home
[11:31] <wols> are home directories readable by world?
[11:31] <duncan_busy> p4_xxx, you need to go to the other accounts and make sure that the bottom set of permission 'Others' does not have read any rights.
[11:31] <wols> ikonia: user a can look at /home/b's files
[11:31] <duncan_busy> p4_xxx, I'm talking about 'System > Settings > Users & Groups'
[11:32] <Wimpie> !ftpd > Wimpie

[11:41] <batsquid> i have an old ubuntu server that just broke down, so i got a new computer and i want to use the old harddisk which is OK and full of files, config etc. i want to spend as little time as possible, so i need to simply use the old disk, no reinstall etc. however, when i start up the new computer, everything is OK until ubuntu starts up X. i don't really need X, but i do need a TTY - none of which are responding to ctrl-c or ctrl-d ; i get no login pr
[11:42] <axyjo> single user mode?
[11:42] <p4_xxx> ok so i have to change permissions for others right?
[11:42] <vox> batsquid: press ctrl-alt-f1
[11:42] <ikonia> basti: boot into single user mode and disable X
[11:42] <joaopinto> batsquid, yo use X you will need to reconfigure with: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:43] <batsquid> vox, that simply changes to TTY1 which still has the X error message on screen. no response
[11:43] <ikonia> batsquid: boot into single user mode and disable X
[11:43] <batsquid> joaopinto, well first i need to get a PROMPT
[11:43] <joaopinto> batsquid, try TTY2, F2, anyway TTY1 should work
[11:43] <ikonia> batsquid: booting into single user mode will give you a prompt
[11:43] <joaopinto> you just need to acknowledge the error message
[11:43] <batsquid> joaopinto, i have tried, please read my post
[11:44] <batsquid> ikonia, how do i do that?
[11:44] <Nikso1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/37394/
[11:44] <ikonia> batsquid: add the line "single" to your kernel boot parameters
[11:44] <batsquid> joaopinto, wrong.
[11:44] <Nikso1> Good idea this service
[11:44] <batsquid> ikonia, how can i do that w/o a prompt
[11:44] <mutk__> Well I _think_ I need a very specific version 8.04' as I am tracking down a suspected lib-ssl or perl LWP problem.. It appears that http://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/ubuntu-releases/8.04/  has the same files available as http://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/ubuntu-releases/8.04.1/
[11:44] <joaopinto> batsquid, well, follow ikonia's sugesstion
[11:45] <ikonia> basti: press "e" at the grub menu and edit the line
[11:45] <nogagplz> Hey guys, is there a guide somewhere on how to disable Pulseaudio in Kubuntu 8.04?
[11:45] <batsquid> ikonia, thank you
[11:45] <lunch> the lease time for dhcp server is measured in minutes? hours?
[11:45] <Slart> lunch: seconds is the standard for commands afaik
[11:45] <p4_xxx> like  for a user in the home directory for the user test-x i have to write like this      sudo chmod 700 -R test-x   is this correct?
[11:46] <mutk__> Anyone that watched the release of 8.04, was it originally released with files called ubuntu-8.04.1...,  ?
[11:46] <Slart> lunch: might be different for some stuff though.. what does the man page say?
[11:46] <lunch> Slart, ok.  how to tell server to discard all leases when rebooted?
[11:46] <joaopinto> p4_xxx, if you want to 700 on the entire dir contents, yes, note that you will be setting executable on  every file....
[11:46] <Slart> lunch: it doesn't do that by default?
[11:46] <xnv> mutk__: Not originally, no. 8.04.1 contains modifications to 8.04
[11:47] <mutk__> xnv, Ok So that is not what I want :)
[11:47] <Flannel> mutk__: 8.04.1 is what you want.
