[06:59] <TuxCrafter> when I disable the icons on my desktop by not running xfdesktop (pkill xfdesktop) or via the settings menu and then when I restart the pc. and start then my openoffice gtk bindings are broken! If i then start xfdesktop and kill it again openoffice is fine. byt I have tho had loaded xfdesktop once :-S?
[06:59] <Judicata> voodookin: try ktorrent.
[06:59] <voodookin> cant get any connections
[06:59] <nemo_work> voodookin: what's DHT?
[06:59] <voodookin> k torrent is for kde right?
[06:59] <nemo_work> voodookin: sounds like a generic bittorrent firewall setup question anyway.  why not ask in #bittorrent?
[06:59] <dcordes> voodookin: you can use all kde apps on gnome
[06:59] <Judicata> voodookin: it works great in gnome (certainly better than a windows app)
[06:59] <nemo_work> voodookin: they are used to explaining how to setup bittorrent in various linux
[06:59] <Kazero> Judicata: Know where the beryl icon shows when its running, as well as the opera icon, etc? That bar, I accidntally removed it
[07:00] <nemo_work> voodookin: I think switching to another client is unlikely to help
[07:00] <Ruffles> voodookin, bittornado is cool
[07:00] <dcordes> voodookin: forward port 6881 in your router firewall
[07:00] <Judicata> Kazero: Oh, right click, add to panel, notification area
[07:00] <skvn> i have 'Option		"UseFBDev"		"true"' so should i put the 'Option		"NoLogo"' under it, or just add the "NoLogo" behind "true"?
[07:00] <do> hallop
[07:00] <dcordes> voodookin: if you don'T get any connections it is not the fault of a certain client
[07:00] <voodookin> i dont use a router i have a direct firewire connection
[07:00] <dcordes> but of your connection
[07:00] <Kazero> Judicata: Doh! Thats which one it was ;) Thanks
[07:00] <skvn> anyone? :P
[07:00] <Judicata> Kazero: np.
[07:00] <nemo_work> dcordes: yep. he should ask in #bittorrent IMO.
[07:00] <YoG> hi, I've changed the default application for avi files, but when I start avi file from a samba share the default totem starts, how do I change that? anyone?
[07:00] <nemo_work> oh well. later
[07:01] <do> ubuntu rocks! and you too!
[07:01] <Judicata> Kazero: I've recently learned that any apps misuse the notification area. its not supposed to be like a system tray, apparently.
[07:01] <dcordes> do: sure we do
[07:01] <dcordes> do: if you use it you also rock
[07:01] <Kazero> Judicata: No? Thats silly
[07:01] <dcordes> maybe
[07:01] <do> i know
[07:01] <Judicata> Kazero: So, "notification area" doesn't describe how its actually used.
[07:01] <Judicata> hence its non-obvious.
[07:01] <Kazero> Judicata: It should be like a system tray, or there should be somthing like it
[07:01] <skvn> i have 'Option		"UseFBDev"		"true"' so should i put the 'Option		"NoLogo"' under it, or just add the "NoLogo" behind "true"? <- answer me, i know it's a stupid question but i really dont know :P
[07:02] <do> yes, i am on xchat... for the first time
[07:02] <thorre> greetings
[07:02] <thorre> i am having a look at ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS Server
[07:02] <Judicata> Kazero: I think applications are supposed to implement that functionality otherwise. but, unless you develop it doesn't matter :)
[07:02] <skvn> and that is in xorg under my nvidia graphics card settings... :/
[07:02] <Alakazamz0r> ok thorre

[07:04] <do> I dont have the knowledge, peter__
[07:04] <tabma1> what is the ubuntu-offtopic channel ?

[07:04] <ubuntu_> yo
[07:04] <cokeslut> unsure
[07:04] <steel_lady> TuxCrafter, my fstab does not have anything assigned there yet since i did not install the system. should I assign all the partitions like that now before installing or should I do it after installing?
[07:04] <nwonknu-> interest
[07:04] <Judicata> tabma1: #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:04] <TuxCrafter> peter: 3 minutx
[07:04] <Ruffles> steel_lady, it created fstab after the system has been installed
[07:04] <Ruffles> creates*
[07:04] <Valde> skvn it says its installed but when i sudo nvidia-glx-config enable it tells me its not installed
[07:05] <TuxCrafter> steel_lady: what do you mean with installingen, are you still on the live cd
[07:05] <steel_lady> Ruffles, the system has not been installed
[07:05] <peter__> thanks...Having read the wiki, followed the instructions in the community web pages etc etc, I can load the nvidia drivers, but then I get a blank screen when I restart or restart x. No bongoes. The only way to recover is to reset, start recovery mode and edit xorg.conf using VIM to set the driver to "nv" ANy ideas???
[07:05] <steel_lady> TuxCrafter I am still on live CD
[07:05] <TuxCrafter> peter_: sorry i am atx and via expert
[07:05] <Tox> untu
[07:05] <Ruffles> steel_lady, u'll get fstab up after installing your system.. no need to edit it
[07:06] <ubuntu> recently my ubuntu crashed when i reboot in the live cd and mount my old hard drive the etc is a text file, usr is a symlink to a non existent file usr -> accept is there anyway to recover this?
[07:06] <peter__> Thanks anyway....I wondered if it might be a resolution problem...
[07:06] <YoG> hi, I've changed the default application for avi files, but when I start avi file from a samba share the default totem starts, how do I change that? anyone? :'-(
[07:06] <TuxCrafter> steel_lady: you have to install ubnuntu fifst
[07:06] <steel_lady> TuxCrafter I am just tryiong to install the system and asking if i should change names in MountPoint boxes within the installer since it calls media the win partition
[07:06] <BrendanM> Hey, I tried to do updates with Synaptic, but it throws an error on this package wpasupplicant, but it still keeps trying to update it every time I run Synaptic. I can't unmark the package. Is there any way to tell it to just leave it alone???
[07:06] <Shane-S> ahh I need help. I installed 6.10 server, and I am now trying to use apt-get install postfix and it asking for the CD-rom, but I am in a remote location anything I can do
[07:06] <TuxCrafter> YES
[07:06] <LjL> Valde: if you're on edgy, use nvidia-xconfig rather than glx-config
[07:06] <Tox> hi how to launch mixer app if i accidentally switch it off ?
[07:07] <ubuntu> anyone
[07:07] <Valde> LjL can i pm you plz
[07:07] <ubuntu> >	recently my ubuntu crashed when i reboot in the live cd and mount my old hard drive the etc is a text file, usr is a symlink to a non existent file usr -> accept is there anyway to recover this?
[07:07] <LjL> Valde: you just did
[07:07] <TuxCrafter> steel_lady: indead ifyou change them there correctly NOT FORMAT THEM they sould be automatic used in the fstab file!
[07:07] <LjL> Valde: if you ask me here, though, i suppose someone else may chirp in, or be interested themselves
[07:07] <Valde> Yea i want someone to help me go through step by step :D
[07:08] <Tox> !mixer
[07:08] <ubotwo> Sorry, I know nothing about that - try http://help.ubuntu.com/community/
[07:08] <steel_lady> TuxCrafter why can not I change /media/hda1 to /win/hda1?
[07:08] <timo> what dose total file-system capacity mean ?
[07:08] <Tox> ppl tell me plz sound mixer app
[07:08] <Tox> name it!
[07:08] <steel_lady> TuxCrafter, it lets me write whatever there and then it should crate the folder no?
[07:08] <Judicata> steel_lady: it might make more sense to make it "/media/win"
[07:08] <TuxCrafter> steel_lady: it is beter to use standards use /media/windows or /mnt/windows
[07:09] <TuxCrafter> steel_lady: standards make live beter
[07:09] <Judicata> steel_lady: so I guess the partitioning worked correctly from earlier?
[07:09] <steel_lady> Judicata, Tuxcrafter, can I pot /mnt/win then? and what should I put for fat32?
[07:09] <oFF-beAt> :/ beryl freezed my system .. removed it.. and it has left my desktop really messed up now.. show desktop button no longer works
[07:10] <timo> steel_lady: need help mounting winodws drive ?
[07:10] <oFF-beAt> open widnows apps r not shown in task bar
[07:10] <Judicata> steel_lady, TuxCrafter: just name it /media/something or /mnt/something
[07:10] <TuxCrafter> steel_lady: dont now what you mean just asign the partition to the mount point
[07:10] <steel_lady> Judicata, yes it worked, seems that partitioning within installer had problems
[07:11] <timo> well done
[07:11] <frogzoo> oFF-beAt: from the login screen, select gnome, (not xgl)
[07:11] <YoG> Tox, did you try gnome-volume-control?
[07:11] <Judicata> steel_lady: like /media/fat or /media/share or something.
[07:11] <steel_lady> Judicata, TuxCrafter, can I put then /mnt/share for fat32?
[07:11] <Tox> yog: oh thank you yog
[07:12] <n2diy> I DLed and installed an SMP kernel, now I want to move it to an other box, but I can't find it, any idea where it is hiding?

[07:12] <oFF-beAt> sorry had to log out.. desktop too messed up
[07:12] <Judicata> steel_lady: yes. And also realize that this part isn't that vital - if you change yoru mind later you can edit your fstab once it is installed.
[07:12] <dgrantwork> how do I launch an X program from the terminal, DISPLAY=? something...?
[07:12] <sivik> in firefox, how do i get the player to default to mplayer rather than totem
[07:12] <tabma1> I have a build in motherboard VGA and an external VGA on my CPU, can I do dual monitor ?
[07:12] <vleon> can someone tell me how can i terminate pppoeconf?

[07:12] <oFF-beAt> saw some one sayin something to me while i was being logged out
[07:12] <Shane-S> anyone? how can I get the server cd contents on the system so it stops asking for it when I added applications/servers/services
[07:12] <frogzoo> dgrantwork: should already be set DISPLAY=:0.0
[07:13] <sivik> Shane-S, go comment out that line in the sources.list file
[07:13] <steel_lady> Judicata, I ordered for formatting only / swap and home and beginning the install
[07:13] <Judicata> steel_lady: everything sounds good.
[07:13] <Shane-S> sivik: will the apps still install fine?
[07:13] <YoG> hi, I've changed the default application for avi files, but when I start avi file from a samba share the default totem starts, how do I change that? anyone? :'-( please?
[07:13] <sivik> Shane-S, yes, it will just stop asking for the cd
[07:14] <frogzoo> dgrantwork: just enter the name of the X executable, should just work, eg, try 'xclock'
[07:15] <pebblestone> I have a ubuntu server box installed in vmware and I'm going to migrate it to a VPS server. Is there any simple solutions?
[07:16] <steel_lady> Judicata, I forgot to ask, I did swap of 1024mb for 1G ram but I think it jumped to 1020 later
[07:16] <Shane-S> sivik: I did that and now it errors saying package postfix is not available, so I take it I have to go download everything?
[07:16] <Judicata> steel_lady: don't worry about it.
[07:16] <n2diy> I DLed and installed an SMP kernel, now I want to move it to an other box, but I can't find it, any idea where it is hiding?
[07:16] <sivik> Shane-S, you have to do an update before you can try and download anything else
[07:17] <Shane-S> ok ty
[07:17] <Kazero> So is there a object dock type program for ubuntu?
[07:17] <sqwishy> the beryl people are talking about compy specs. can i post a slightly beryl related problem here?
[07:17] <steel_lady> Judicata, it is installing. With live CD it did not detect the network, I am not sure if something is wrong with hardware (it may be, laptop is not mine) or just does not work out of the box
[07:18] <tabma1> I have a build in motherboard VGA and an external VGA on my CPU, can I do dual monitor ?
[07:18] <sqwishy> kazero try kiba-dock

[07:19] <sqwishy> oh kazero you need beryl
[07:19] <sqwishy> i forgot. otherwise transparency doesn't work

[07:22] <n2diy> I DLed and installed an SMP kernel, now I want to move it to an other box, but I can't find it, any idea where it is hiding?
[07:22] <Judicata> steel_lady: grub should detect your windows partition, and it should take care of things automatically.
[07:23] <dbdez78> hello?
[07:23] <marlun> Can the nautilus cd/dvd creator burn images like the ubuntu image?
[07:23] <Kazero> Ok,im sure you're all sick of my questions, but how do I define what terminal commands to run when I start the XGL session?
[07:23] <frogzoo> Lnxguy: it would probably be a lot of work, I imagine you'd need to compile from source
[07:23] <marlun> I mean cd images, not photos.
[07:23] <dbdez78> anyone know much about dvd::rip?
[07:23] <neuratix> marlun: i'm not sure, but k3b is good anyway ;)
[07:23] <Shane-S> I keep gettign 403 errors now when it tries to fetch packages, anyway to fix that?
[07:23] <marlun> neuratix, k3b?
[07:23] <Gizmo_the_Great> I have a dual processor machine. But the 'task manager' (to coin the Windows term) only ever shows the activity of one CPU. In Windows, the task manager has two seperate columns for each CPU. Am I missing something?
[07:24] <neuratix> marlun, it's a very easy to use burning program
[07:24] <defend> anyone here use a custom kernel with out a initrd file
[07:24] <frogzoo> Gizmo_the_Great: edgy or dapper?
[07:24] <dbdez78> I can't figure out how to get it to transcode to one .avi file instead of individual chapter files...
[07:24] <neuratix> marlun: it's in the repositories
[07:24] <defend> i cant get ubuntu to boot with out one no mater what i try

[07:25] <rbil> dbdez78: I use DVDRipOMatic which makes creating divX files from DVDs incredibly easy
[07:25] <pagefault> is using the server kernel the only way to get dual core support in edgy?
[07:25] <Gizmo_the_Great> frogzoo, mmm, not sure how to do that? Is the 686 an upgrade of it>
[07:25] <andreid> hello. what do you think about gayubuntu?
[07:25] <dbdez78> is that available through apt?

[07:30] <steel_lady> what is Nautilus?
[07:30] <black_abaddon> hi
[07:30] <andreid> oFF-beAt: no, seriously. no flame intended. gayubuntu.com . its a community of gay ubuntu users. I was wondering what is it about
[07:30] <black_abaddon> i am gay
[07:30] <MindFreek> how do I terminate a VNC session locally?

[07:30] <afv-13> how would a person specify which repositories packages to prefer? eg, prefer the wine package from wine themselves over ubuntu's
[07:30] <vleon> can someone please tell me how to turn off ppoeconf?
[07:30] <NullByte> Hi mmmm....
[07:30] <jatt> I am now in the "Partition disks" part of the installer
[07:31] <steel_lady> Ok Judicata I got it
[07:31] <jatt> When I enter XP I have two partitions:
[07:31] <jatt> C: and D: (D is unformatted)
[07:31] <renato> hello, I'll ask here, since there's no one at the server channel. Any one know of a nice GUI application to manage basic maintenance network tasks like adding users, devices, backing up, etc. for a small office network I intend to run myself (not an IT expert)
[07:31] <jatt> the ubuntu installer says that I have 1 logical partition
[07:31] <LjL> now, black_abaddon definitely went overboard, but gaybuntu is still quite offtopic. please make good use of the #ubuntu-offtopic channel
[07:31] <jatt> and 1 primary partition
[07:31] <MindFreek> how do I terminate a VNC session locally?
[07:31] <Judicata> LjL: you think? :)
[07:31] <jatt> I expected 2 primary partitions
[07:32] <jatt> can I install ubuntu on a logical partition?
[07:32] <unop> Shane-S, is <IP_ADDRESS> your IP address?
[07:32] <LjL> Judicata: yes, i don't believe it's an official ubuntu derivative - and at any rate, "what do you think about XYZ-distro" is not quite ontopic here
[07:32] <wimpies> when I print an simple ASCII file gutenprint basically hangs or produces data to my printer which that printer does not understand.  Can anybody help ? I have a simple HP 930C and AFAIK it is configured properly
[07:32] <neuratix> jatt: i think so
[07:32] <steel_lady> Judicata something strange is happening with that installation. it is on 50% and having written for ages the number 158:40 remaining scratching like crazy over the disk and now it stopped reading from the disk and i don't see that is doing anything
[07:32] <jatt> it is a 40GB disk. 21GB are in the primary partition and 19.0 ond the logical one
[07:33] <Judicata> steel_lady: that sounds bad.
[07:33] <Shane-S> unop: not that I am aware of, as we should be 209. or 206. something, but my IP here should be the same the server uses
[07:33] <Judicata> LjL: I was kidding. I completely agree.
[07:33] <Kazero> Is there an official kiba-dock site?
[07:33] <renato> Once more and I'll stop bothering. Any one know of a nice GUI application to manage basic maintenance network tasks like adding users, devices, backing up, etc. for a small office network I intend to run myself (not an IT expert)
[07:33] <Shane-S> the server is behind a NAT firewall which redirects a certain Ip to it, let me fetch my external IP
[07:33] <Valde> Anyone help me get mp3 working
[07:34] <Judicata> steel_lady: wait a bit and see if it starts working again.
[07:34] <steel_lady> Judicata, it doesn't sound at all but it gives me a frightening impression
[07:34] <neuratix> jatt: anyway, you can just delete the logical partition and make a new primary if you'd like
[07:34] <bkingx> Does anyone know of a real-time linux router monitor?
[07:34] <unop> Shane-S, errm, well -- <IP_ADDRESS> is being denied a service by the servers -- if thats not your address, are you using a proxy perhaps?
[07:34] <Judicata> steel_lady: I've been worried through all of this that you may have an error with your hard drive, but I thought we were through that.
[07:34] <Shane-S> unop: going to an IP site it reports   <IP_ADDRESS> which is correct, I will check the firewall real fast to see what IP it re-directs,no we do not use a proxy
[07:34] <dbdez78> Valde, download and run Automatix, it included installation scripts for all sorts of good stuff
[07:35] <bkingx> Specifically snmp?
[07:35] <Judicata> steel_lady: are you able to cancel the installation, or is it frozen?
[07:35] <jatt> recommended size of the swap partition is 2xRAM isn't it? I do have 2GB ram
[07:35] <LjL> !automatix | dbdez78, Valde
[07:35] <ubotwo> dbdez78, Valde: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:35] <steel_lady> Judicata, where it says installing system, should I click on x to close the window?
[07:36] <Judicata> jatt: I have 1GB ram and 1GB swap with no problems. I just couldn't bring myself to do give up the extra gb. :)
[07:36] <neuratix> jatt: i don't think 4gb of swap will be needed
[07:36] <Judicata> steel_lady: is there not another button for cancel or abort?
[07:36] <neuratix> jatt: i've got 1gb ram and 1gb swap too
[07:36] <steel_lady> judicata, no nothing
[07:37] <jatt> neuratix: thanks will try with 2GB then instead
[07:37] <Judicata> jatt: but, yes, 2X ram is the rule of thumb (and has ben for as long as I can remember - it was easier to swallow when I had 64mb)
[07:37] <Judicata> steel_lady: so...nothing is happening? does your mouse move? can you click on the menus?
[07:37] <jatt> which is the difference between primary and logical partition?
[07:37] <jatt> the installer asks me to choose one
[07:38] <frogzoo> Judicata: once you have a gig of ram, 2gigs of swap is overkill
[07:38] <timo> How do i download and install the new gtk-gnutella release 0.96.3
[07:38] <jatt> I want to avoid to delete the master boot record of windows
[07:38] <jatt> I want dual boot
[07:38] <LjL> Judicata, jatt: the "recommended 2X" or "2.5X" or "1.5X" (or... there's probably a thousand variations) isn't really based on any hard facts, although i seem to recall that in much older versions of Linux, some subtle bug made a specific swap size recommendable. with today's RAM sizes, usually having just as much swap as one has RAM is good enough
[07:38] <rbil> frogzoo: no kidding!
[07:38] <Judicata> frogzoo: that's what I think too.
[07:38] <steel_lady> Judicata, yes my mouse moves and I hear light scratching on the disk reader, I dont know maybe it si trying to read and something is wrong with CD?
[07:38] <LjL> jatt: deleting the MBR doesn't mean you won't be able to dual boot. GRUB will be installed in the MBR, which allows you to boot to windows quite fine
[07:38] <Shane-S> unop: nope <IP_ADDRESS> is the servers external dedicated IP address, and it is routed locally via NAT to <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:38] <LjL> Ubotu, tell jatt about dualboot | jatt, see the private message from Ubotu
[07:39] <Judicata> LjL: thanks for verifying - so I can know I'm not leading people astray :)
[07:39] <frogzoo> rbil: do you use suspend? you still need 1x
[07:39] <steel_lady> Judicata, should I try to click on x?
[07:39] <rbil> frogzoo: no I don't use suspend
[07:39] <Shane-S> and the .8 is the servers set IP
[07:39] <jatt> hmmm I need to set the bootable flag of the linux partition isn't it?
[07:39] <Judicata> steel_lady: no, wait a few more minutes.
[07:39] <jatt> now I have in the installer:
[07:39] <LjL> Judicata: it's important, though, to have *at least* as much as your RAM (and probably a little more, just to avoid for "rounding errors"), because otherwise some things such as hibernation will not work
[07:39] <jatt> Bootable flag: off
[07:39] <frogzoo> jatt: linux doesn't look for the bootable flag, no
[07:39] <Demonswarm> alright
[07:39] <Demonswarm> im having a problem
[07:39] <LjL> jatt: it shouldn't really be necessary
[07:39] <steel_lady> Judicata, now I do not hear anything again
[07:39] <Judicata> LjL: ok, gotcha.
[07:40] <jatt> I see I will leave it off
[07:40] <rbil> frogzoo: but one can always just add a swapfile if the swap partition isn't enuf
[07:40] <frogzoo> rbil: sure sure
[07:40] <n2diy> I'm setting up a LAN which consists of two boxes, and a router. Both boxes can ping each other, and the router. And box 1 is setup to allow box 2 to ssh into it. How would I open a file on box one, from box 2?
[07:40] <Demonswarm> my server has been assigned a new network ip, but if i try forwarding the port it tells me: The marked IP address is not within the range of your machine
[07:40] <jamesbrose> n3diy ftp?
[07:40] <jatt> the bootable flag is set in the ntfs partition anyway
[07:41] <unop> Shane-S, hmm, thats really odd
[07:41] <neuratix> n2diy: look into sshfs or you can use scp
[07:41] <bkingx> Need a real-time snmp monitor for ppc version
[07:41] <n2diy> jamesbrose: no, I want to open a file, not transfer it.
[07:41] <jatt> So I have now two primary partitions: 1 ntfs partition, 1 ext3 partition and swap partition.
[07:41] <frogzoo> bkingx: mrtg or cacti
[07:41] <jatt> ntfs and ext3 are primary, looks good isn't it?
[07:41] <Judicata> steel_lady: still wait a minute or two. If it still doesn't do anything, try to exit and start over (the partitions will still be there, so you don't have to go through that mess again).
[07:41] <n2diy> neuratix: roger sshfs.
[07:41] <Shane-S> do you thin Ubuntu 6.10 comes with a proxy enabled by default, it asked during install which I said no to
[07:41] <jatt> installer is asking it will write the changes to disk, with a big warning...
[07:42] <Judicata> steel_lady: i've got to go, but i'm sure someone can help you the rest of the way. good luck.
[07:42] <Demonswarm> my server has been assigned a new network ip, but if i try forwarding the port it tells me: The marked IP address is not within the range of your machine
[07:42] <bkingx> frogzoo: mrtg and cacti are not realtime enough
[07:42] <bkingx> I am needing something like prtg.
[07:42] <steel_lady> Judicata, thank you, I feel a bit desperate already
[07:42] <unop> Shane-S, no, proxy is not enabled by default -- but you can check using gnome-network-preferences
[07:42] <jatt> ok... I tell the installer to write the changes... hopefully nothing breaks :)
[07:43] <Shane-S> its server, no gnome, just command line
[07:43] <jatt> ubuntu uses grub isn
[07:43] <jatt> isn't it?
[07:43] <dbdez78> anyone know how to install DVDRip-O-Matic on ubuntu
[07:43] <adop> n2diy: you could also use nautilus with ssh:// uris
[07:43] <neuratix> n2diy: sshfs allows you to mount the filesystem of your remote host on your system and use it as it was a part of your local filesystem. works great but a bug in (at least) dapper made it a bit tricky to setup
[07:43] <jatt> AFAIK grub will take care to don't delete my windows partition
[07:43] <thug> how do i enable 3d acceleration ?
[07:43] <dbdez78> I click on the installer and it does nothing
[07:43] <rbil> dbdez78: just unpack it and it's there
[07:43] <jatt> I mean to don't delete my windows boot!
[07:43] <rbil> see the requirements in terms of packages you need to have installed
[07:44] <rbil> http://dvdripomatic.sourceforge.net/view.php/page/Install
[07:44] <dbdez78> yeah, that's what it says - about having kommander installed; did that but still doesn't work, just stalls out
[07:44] <unop> Shane-S, ahh, well, dont think a proxy is an issue -- can you try the apt-get command again and !pastebin the errors - just to see if anything varies
[07:44] <n2diy> neuratix: of course I'm using Dapper. :/
[07:44] <neuratix> n2diy: try adops tip
[07:45] <LjL> jatt: GRUB has nothing to do with deleting partitions, it's just a bootloader, i.e. it loads operating systems
 n2diy: you could also use nautilus with ssh:// uri
[07:45] <rbil> dbdez78: I just unpack the files into some directory off my home directory
[07:45] <n2diy> adop: I don't understand the syntax, current I'm logged into box 1 from box 2, so just run "nautilus?"
[07:45] <LjL> jatt: it's the Ubuntu installer that is supposed to avoid deleting your Windows partition (if you tell it so, when asked!), and can also shrink it down a bit to make space for the Ubuntu partition if necessary
[07:45] <d2812> how can I configure ubuntu to boot only to a console? I dont want a GUI such as Gnome or XFCE running unless I type startx.
[07:45] <neuratix> adop: i didn't know about that until now, thanks :)
[07:45] <rbil> dbdez78: then create a launcher to run a command similar to this ... kmdr-executor /home/rbil/Downloads/DVDRipOMatic-0.95/DVDRipOMatic.kmdr
[07:46] <cappiz> is it possbiel to make luks on the root device of a ubuntu setup?
[07:46] <donkeylips> d2812: edit inittab to boot runlevel 3
[07:46] <LjL> d2812: you could remove GDM, or perhaps just "sudo update-rc.d gdm remove"
[07:46] <adop> n2diy: run nautilus and then in the location bar enter ssh://username@hostname
[07:46] <neuratix> n2diy: just open the filebrowser on your local computer, press ctrl+l and write ssh://username@ip
[07:46] <donkeylips> d2812: dont listen to LjL because that will remove it.  Just edit /etc/inittab and change the run level from 5 to 3
[07:46] <Arcad3> Hi i'm in console mode
[07:46] <unop> d2812, disable the GDM service using services-admin
[07:46] <mnoir> cappiz: what is "luks"
[07:46] <n2diy> adop: ok, I'll givie it a try.
[07:46] <Arcad3> is there a way to start X11?
[07:47] <cappiz> mnoir, thats some crypto stuff :)
[07:47] <donkeylips> shheeshh... some bad advice in here, lol
[07:47] <rulus> Arcad3: startx
[07:47] <LjL> donkeylips: it won't remove a thing except the script that tells GDM to start at boot (and that can be restored easily enough still).
[07:47] <Arcad3> thankx
[07:47] <Rio> hey optimus, pici, mnoir.... my bro changed the port for me and it's still not running....
[07:47] <thug> how do i enable 3d acceleration for VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/910GL Express Chipset Family Graphics Controller (rev 04)
[07:47] <unop> donkeylips, edgy no longer uses init -- so its likely he doesnt have an inittab -- also the default runlevel on debian/ubuntu is 2 not 5
[07:47] <donkeylips> LjL: There is no point in doing that.  Thats why there are run levels.
[07:48] <donkeylips> unop: ahh, didnt think about that.
[07:48] <LjL> donkeylips: instead, using runlevel 3 *is* bad advice, since other services may possibly not be started, and on Edgy, upstart really only supports /etc/inittab as a side-thought (it gives a quick look at it, greps for the default runlevel, and tries to use it)
[07:48] <LjL> so yours is bad advice
[07:48] <Shane-S> unop: nope, same IP and everything, maybe I can do like a tracert?
[07:48] <donkeylips> LjL: Well, not really because all services are start but X in runlevel 3.
[07:48] <donkeylips> assuming they are using init.
[07:48] <Shane-S> i did one from my system (windows box) and that Ip doesn't come up, but there is a hope on a 195. network
[07:49] <Demonswarm> any1 here that knows it?
[07:49] <unop> Shane-S, yep -- see where that takes you -- also do a nslookup/dig on the server -- i'll see if it correlates to mine here
[07:49] <rogue780> I need to set my computer to automatically reboot at 2:00 AM every day...how do I go about this
[07:49] <mnoir> Rio: uuh - need a reminder as to yr situation
[07:49] <r_rehashed> hi everybody
[07:49] <rulus> !cron | rogue780
[07:49] <ubotwo> rogue780: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm
[07:49] <Shane-S> haha whats linux'es equal to "tracert"?
[07:50] <Tox> #kubuntu
[07:50] <unop> Shane-S, traceroute/tracepath
[07:50] <mnoir> Shane-S: traceroute
[07:50] <frogzoo> Shane-S: would you believe... traceroute ?
[07:50] <donkeylips> Shane-S, traceroute?
[07:50] <Shane-S> haha full thing :P
[07:50] <Byan> how do I install twisted..
[07:50] <Byan> it says there is no installation canidate...
[07:50] <unop> Shane-S, as it should be .. its only win32 that does things awkwardly :)
[07:51] <LjL> donkeylips: which, with all probability, they're not since quite a few people are using Edgy. also, i'm looking at my Edgy's /etc/rc2.d and /etc/rc3.d, and KDM is listed in both
[07:51] <steel_lady> how can I install real player? I found the installation on the net,  there are instructions how to install bin file but I am not shure does it apply for me?
[07:51] <cappiz> how can i list all files and deps to a package?
[07:51] <donkeylips> Ljl, yeah im not using Edgy. :/
[07:51] <LjL> cappiz: dpkg -L packagename lists the files
[07:51] <bkingx> MRTG and Cacti are not good enough.  Need realtime snmp monitor.
[07:51] <Rio> mnoir i installed apache webserver, supposedly got it running... now im logged onto my ubuntu machine remotely via ssh & cygwin and im trying to get apache running.  optimus pointed out that cox blocks port 80, so i had my bro change it to 8181 for port forwarding at the router....
[07:51] <r_rehashed> if I install kde from my gnome environment, will I be missing on some fine-tunings/specialisations present in Kubuntu, if any?
[07:51] <LjL> cappiz: apt-cache show packagename lists the direct dependencies
[07:51] <donkeylips> LjL: to much of a disappointment for me to goto Edgy from Dapper.
[07:51] <n2diy> adop: i get an error, "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol ssh isn't associated with any program.
[07:52] <LjL> cappiz: apt-cache --recurse depends packagename shows all dependencies recursively
[07:52] <Gosha> what is the kvnc server called? ( i badly want to kill it )
[07:52] <cappiz> kk :)
[07:52] <adop> n2diy: firefox?
[07:52] <Rio> mnoir i edited ports.conf for port change, restarted the server, then typed in my ip in my browser and it still gets nothing
[07:52] <unop> n2diy, are you trying to ssh with firefox?
[07:52] <n2diy> adop: yes
[07:52] <rulus> steel_lady: check http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/07/08/introducing-the-dapper-commercial-repository/
[07:52] <cappiz> thanks, i forgot to install initramfs-tools on my usb pen wich im gonna use for the crypto thingy... gonna try copy the files over :P
[07:52] <Rio> any suggestions?
[07:52] <unop> Rio, if you change ports, you'll need to access it like this http://ip.add.re.ss:8181
[07:53] <Optimus> rio -- did you type in :8181 at the end of your ip?
[07:53] <cappiz> hum... might not work :S
[07:53] <cappiz> gah
[07:53] <n2diy> adop: whoops, you said Nautilus didn't you?
[07:53] <rulus> steel_lady: by adding this repo you can install opera and realplayer with apt-get
[07:53] <mnoir> Rio: this is so different from the way i would have proceeded that i will not be of help -
[07:53] <Shane-S> unop: herer are my results (from server itself) http://www.pastebin.ca/321782
[07:53] <adop> n2diy: y
[07:54] <Rio> ip:8181 doesnt work
[07:54] <Optimus> rio -- can you try and ping (from the command line, your ip address?
[07:55] <Rio> Optimus ping from my windows box, or ubuntu box?
[07:55] <Optimus> Ping your ubuntu webserver -- don't care from what os
[07:55] <mnoir> Rio: sorry - forgot that ports.conf is the new apache config file - did you change your default sites-enabled file to respond to 8181?
[07:55] <jjpicon> ola
[07:56] <unop> Shane-S, well, i get almost similar results -- can you browse http://security.ubuntu.com/ from the server using lynx/links
[07:56] <LjL> donkeylips: see also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InitScriptList - paragraph is "Why does Ubuntu uses runlevel 2 as default? Will I ever need 3-5?"
[07:56] <jjpicon> kien eres
[07:56] <donkeylips> LjL, ill go there in a bit, im sure its talking about the new upstart whatever in Edgy
[07:56] <sukeltje> how can i get the mac address of my server?
[07:56] <Rio> mnoir i edited ports.conf to include port 8181 instead of 80.... is there another file i need to edit?
[07:57] <dbdez78> does anyone know if dvd::rip has a channel?
[07:57] <mnoir> Rio: i THINK so
[07:57] <Shane-S> dont have it installed
[07:57] <mnoir> Rio: do you use virtual domains in apache?
[07:57] <facenew> off topic, but i recommend a short movie "007 vs Man in Black": http://www.bytecool.com/ioiforum/read.php?1,6884,6884#msg-6884
[07:57] <rulus> sukeltje: try ifconfig
[07:57] <LjL> donkeylips: maybe, it doesn't specify
[07:57] <facenew> "007 vs Man in Black", a currently very popular short movie by some Chinese netizens (an English-subtitled version will soon appear at YouTube.com), mocks Kim Jong Il and his secret agent buying Hennessy XO wine from Chinese black market.
[07:57] <Shane-S> unop: ^^
[07:57] <Tox> is there device manager like application in ubuntu ?
[07:57] <n2diy> adop: ok, I'm in, navigated to my home dir., but when I double click on a text file I get an error message "can't display file....
[07:57] <LjL> donkeylips: but no, not really, it's been updated ages ago - possibly even before dapper
[07:57] <StraightShooter> who knows a good place for login screens?
[07:58] <mnoir> Rio: can we go to #ubuntu-classroom to continue - it is too noisy here for me
[07:58] <LjL> Tox: uhm, i think it's actually called Device Manager, under System / Administration
[07:58] <LjL> Tox: a console tool is lshw
[07:58] <rulus> StraightShooter: try gnome-look.org or kde-look.org
[07:58] <unop> Shane-S, errm, how about wget/w3m or nmap?
[07:58] <Rio> Optimus when i pinged from my windows box, it times out... when i ping from my ubuntu box, it returns some information
[07:58] <knight> ive got a usb host controller version 2.0 and 3 usb hc's of version 1.10 , but i cant read a portable harddisk usb 2.0 version is ther any way?
[07:58] <section31> i'm trying to change my screen resolution to something larger than 1024 but I can't.  Is it a driver issue?
[07:58] <Tox> LjL: tnx
[07:58] <JuJuBee> How do I add a route to my computers routing table so it will be there when I restart?
[07:58] <Pici> StraightShooter : try art.gnome.org too
[07:58] <unop> LjL, that page doesnt really explain why the default runlevel is 2 .. do you know why it is 2?
[07:59] <Optimus> Can you use the Ubuntu box to try and connect through the IP?
[07:59] <deny[all] > section31: which video chipset u have?
[07:59] <StraightShooter> rulus... looked there didn't see any
[07:59] <Optimus> Rio, Can you use the Ubuntu box to try and connect through the IP?
[07:59] <Shane-S> unop: wget I have what should I do try and get a package?
[07:59] <StraightShooter> pici... thats the one I was thinking of ... thanx
[07:59] <Tox> LjL: is it possible to remove hw there it wud be found again ?
[07:59] <Rio> optimus i dont understand what you mean by that
[07:59] <Pici> StraightShooter : theres also a gnome-art app, but I find it doesnt work great, but you can use that too
[07:59] <donkeylips> LjL, I have runlevel 3 on 6.06 so it seems the new init startup is in 6.10+
[07:59] <LjL> Tox: i don't understand the question
[07:59] <Tox> LjL: i have a prob with my mic it dznt work
[08:00] <d2812> The update-rc worked - thanks.
[08:00] <unop> Shane-S, well first try a simple http://security.ubuntu.com .. if that works -- try this http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/6/6tunnel/6tunnel_0.10rel-1.dsc
[08:00] <Optimus> Okay can you type my.ip.add.ress:8181 into firefox on the ubuntu machine
[08:00] <Rio> mnoir im in that channel.....
[08:00] <LjL> donkeylips, define "have" - do you mean you're positively sure X doesn't start at runlevel 3? what about the network then?
[08:00] <physique> how can i get codecs for totem?
[08:00] <LjL> Tox: the rest of the soundcard does work?
[08:00] <Tox> i need  programmable remove my sound card
[08:00] <Tox> yes
[08:00] <donkeylips> LjL, networking works, no X11.  Everything loaded but X.
[08:00] <Tox> and mic works on Windows
[08:00] <LjL> Tox: then it's got nothing to do with hardware detection, but probably everything to do with your mixer levels

[08:01] <rulus> section31: can be a driver issue, paste your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to the pastebin (address in title)
[08:01] <Tox> i checked mixer all setting its ok
[08:01] <knight>  ive got a usb host controller version 2.0 and 3 usb hc's of version 1.10 , but i cant read a portable usb harddisk
[08:01] <Optimus> Rio -- if you have ssh, ssh into the box and type "w3m my.internal.ip.address:8181"
[08:01] <deny[all] > section31: if you are using an nvidia card and the nv driver that's maybe the problem
[08:01] <n2diy> adop: ok, I'm in, navigated to my home dir., but when I double click on a text file I get an error message "can't display file....
[08:01] <Tox> its stopped so suddenly
[08:02] <Shane-S> unop: second link worked as well
[08:02] <Shane-S> 568/568
[08:02] <unop> donkeylips, you must have a custom setup then -- on my machine, level 2 and 3 both start the GDM
[08:02] <donkeylips> unop: IM using Dapper
[08:02] <Tox> LjL: how to resolve that problem plz help me
[08:02] <unop> Shane-S, hmm.. its probably apt-get then, try aptitude instead, it might do this differently
[08:03] <donkeylips> unop: Are you runnign Edgy or Dapper?
[08:03] <Rio> optimus my.internal.ip.address being 192.168.x.x? okay
[08:03] <unop> donkeylips, well, i installed Dapper and upgraded on from there -- so i still have the dapper settings, init, etc
[08:03] <Optimus> Rio, yup
[08:03] <Shane-S> unop: how do I use aptitude any referrence on the documents page of ubuntu?
[08:03] <n2diy> I SSHed into box 1 from box 2, navigated to my home dir., but when I double click on a text file I get an error message "can't display file....
[08:03] <donkeylips> unop: Not the same.  If you upgraded then its running the new setup from Edgy.
[08:04] <knight> there is nothing in like /dev/sd* when i connect my portable harddisk
[08:04] <LjL> Tox: type "amixer scontents" and pastebin the output
[08:04] <knight> what may be the problem?
[08:04] <unop> Shane-S, you can use it exactly as you would with apt-get -- sudo aptitude upgrade .. or sudo aptitude install package etc
[08:04] <Shane-S> alright thanks
[08:04] <Tox> ok hold on
[08:04] <Shane-S> I will give it a try later on
[08:04] <novaterata> can someone help me. i was adjusting an adjustable fan on my motherboard while it was on and bumped into something which made the computer turn off
[08:04] <Shane-S> I have to run now :(
[08:04] <rulus> knight: does it work?
[08:04] <novaterata> now it will start but only after powering off a few times
[08:04] <raulillo> wenas noxes
[08:04] <raulillo> alguien conoce un reproductor de swf?
[08:04] <novaterata> is it the motherboard of the power supply
[08:05] <rulus> knight: it might be recognised as /dev/hdb
[08:05] <knight> rulus: no i didnt get any sda drive in /dev
[08:05] <novaterata> or the power supply sorry
[08:05] <Tox> how to pastebin ?
[08:05] <Shane-S> hate being a helpdesk/network admin/ server admin/ pc repairer/ ink and toner/ email manager
[08:05] <unop> donkeylips, errm, nope, i still have an inittab and no upstart .. and i can assure you that i've always known level 2 to be the default on ubuntu .. right from hoary .. and the GDM starts in both level 2 and 3
[08:05] <Shane-S> I want 1 job so I can get really good at it :P
[08:05] <Shane-S> have a good day all thanks for the help and support
[08:05] <unop> donkeylips, IIRC this is the exact same behaviour experienced on debian too

[08:07] <knight> rulus: error is ........mount: No medium found
[08:07] <unop> donkeylips, well, like i said, must be a custom setup, there's nothing wrong with that -- it's just not normal .. not what everyone else experiences :)
[08:07] <unop> anyway, i gotta run .. bbl
[08:07] <knight> do u know where can i get help?
[08:07] <Optimus> Rio -- any dice?
[08:07] <dromer> I'm guessing this is also due to me moving /home to another partition :(
[08:07] <section31> deny[all] ,it's an onboard intel chipset

[08:09] <Rio> Optimus sorry, im trying to listen to both you and mnoir in #ubuntu-classroom and this channel
[08:09] <Optimus> Rio, Haha, no problem, when you get a second, try that and see if you can access your site internally
[08:09] <n2diy> adop: I'm googling for an answer now. The error message doesn't give a lot to go on.
[08:10] <Rio> Optimus it says unknown url

[08:11] <Optimus> Rio, are you on your webserver doing that?
[08:11] <Tox> LjL: was there anything wrong in output ?
[08:11] <LjL> Tox: for "Simple mixer control 'Mic',0", it says "off" both on the left and right capture channels, so you'll never be able to record unless you *enable* the microphone in the mixer
[08:12] <Tox> LjL: it shows it is enabled
[08:12] <Rio> Optimus dont know what you mean.... i typed in that command from the terminal that is logged onto my ubuntu box
[08:12] <LjL> Tox: same goes for the "Capture" control, it's off and at almost 0% level
[08:12] <LjL> Tox: no it doesn't, it shows it's disabled

[08:14] <LjL> Tox: well you could give me a screenshot. or just try typing "amixer sset Mic cap ; amixer sset Capture cap ; amixer sset Capture 100%"
[08:14] <Rio> optimus yeah it just says unknown url... i did it twice, once with port 8181, and once without any port
[08:14] <LjL> Tox: the red lights *are* the ones you must turn on in order for recording to work.
[08:14] <knight> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2157/ can any1 check this and tell me whats the problem with my usb?

[08:15] <Tox> LjL : capture shows red indicator of sound level
[08:15] <LjL> Tox: they mean passthru is enabled for the channel - in other words, that you'll hear the microphone in real time

[08:16] <section31> it only allows me to change resolutions up to 1024x768

[08:19] <Optimus> Rio, try adding "ServerName your.ip.address.here" to apache.conf
[08:19] <Rio> optimus mnoir brought me to an interesting file ealier.... 000-default in the etc/apache2/enabled sites directory..... it lists "Allow from 127.0.0......" in there.... should i add another line someplace?
[08:19] <Tox> LjL: tnx a lot! it works :)
[08:20] <Tox> LjL: if i someday meet you i give big bottle of vodka! :)
[08:20] <mnoir> Rio: i think that line was a restrictor on a particular directory - if you want to pastebin the file i can look at it
[08:20] <LjL> Tox: of course it does. now keep in mind that you cannot really jump to the conclusion that your hardware isn't recognized, or such things, just because you have the mixer set bad
[08:21] <mnoir> Rio: you should not need to allow specific ips for general web access
[08:21] <Tox> LjL: its windows habits i need to get rid off this sht :)
[08:21] <Byan> anyone have any idea wtf?

[08:21] <Tox> linux is different
[08:21] <Tox> thats why i love it
[08:21] <mc44> LjL: I wish I could find the app which mutes amixer ever so often for no reason
[08:22] <LjL> Tox: not really, not in this respect... the Windows mixer has the very same controls, just arranged a bit differently perhaps
[08:22] <Byan> or if someone knows a better way to install twisted?
[08:22] <LjL> mc44: your GNOME or KDE mixer when you start a new GNOME or KDE session perhaps?
[08:22] <Tox> but it not mutes my mic
[08:22] <Azul> linux needs some work in the software mixing area
[08:22] <mc44> LjL: I dont think its GNOME, it happens like once a month and I've never figured out which app was doing it
[08:22] <ph8> does anyone know if i can get java 1.5/1.6 packages for ubuntu?
[08:23] <Rydekull> so, question, got a program here running on a host. Aslong as it's active everything is fine.  Any idea what might kill it like this?

[08:23] <squeaks> ZeiP, thanks
[08:23] <Rio> Optimus i tried adding the servername in that apache2.conf, restarted with no errors this time, but still no dice when i type in the ip address in my browser (on my windows box).....

[08:27] <Azul> steel_lady, press Ctrl+Alt+F1
[08:27] <Rio> Optimus okay...im in
[08:27] <Rio> Optimus not used to this interface tho
[08:27] <Optimus> rio -- looks like something is wrong with your router config
[08:27] <Rio> optimus .... from the terminal
[08:27] <steel_lady> humanspecies, dell latitude power turned on and blinking from time to time
[08:27] <Rio> optimus uhh...how do you know that?
[08:28] <Azul> steel_lady, you see anything on the screen?
[08:28] <Rio> Optimus well... theres actually two routers at that house.... one which acts AS a router....and the one i just logged onto, the router function has been disabled so that it acts like a switch
[08:28] <jatt> how do I disable the boot sound?
[08:28] <Rio> Optimus dont know if that info is relevant, but i thought id throw that out there
[08:28] <steel_lady> Azul, no the screen is black, after strl alt f1 mouse froze also
[08:29] <Azul> jatt, bios setup most likely
[08:29] <timo>  jatt: system preferences ,sounds !
[08:29] <mnoir> Rio: he knew cuz 'w3m ip' forced you up to the router to get back down to apache
[08:29] <Optimus> Rio if you are typing your IP from the web server with :8181 attached and it is asking you to login, then I would guess it doesn't know where to forward the packet
[08:29] <n2diy> adop: It is a file association problem, I double clicked on a pdf, and it opened up. The text file I was trying to open doesn't have a extension on it, I tried associating it with gedit, but that isn't sticking. I'm going to try and rename it with .txt, and see if that works.
[08:30] <timo> you know when you click Applications a menu drops down , how do i change the coulor of that menu
[08:30] <jatt> timo: thanks

[08:30] <steel_lady> please, help me, my boss will kill me!!!
[08:30] <jatt> one more question: how do I reconfigure the keyboard (to use german keyboard)?
[08:30] <jatt> dpkg-reconfigure ????
[08:30] <Rio> Optimus damn, i dont know how to exitt.... after logging onto that "switch"

[08:32] <knight> is there any compatiblity issues for usb 2.0 and older usb 1.1 ?
[08:32] <Optimus> mnoir, normally, of course, but if he needs to log back in to the router, he may nto be able to unless he exits properly
[08:33] <mnoir> Optimus: thru :)
[08:33] <steel_lady> humanspecies, I tried to install ubuntu through the live CD, then it stopped on 50 percent and could not go further and after some time screen just went black
[08:33] <mnoir> true even
[08:33] <Rio> Optimus didnt see where to logout, fortunately, i opened another xterm...
[08:33] <knight> is there any incompatiblity issues for usb 2.0 and older usb 1.1 ?
[08:33] <hivemind> Hey guys. I just installed 6.10 and I'm having problems with my wireless card (I'm in WinXP right now)
[08:33] <Optimus> Rio -- just hit q and then type y
[08:33] <steel_lady> humanspecies, I am afraid that I have an error on the disk
[08:33] <Rio> lol...there it goes
[08:34] <hivemind> Apparently I have to install the "ipw3945d" but I can't do it from apt because I cannot connect to the internet...
[08:34] <steel_lady> humanspecies, now it started to scratch on CD again
[08:34] <humanspecies> steel_lady i won't lie, not sure how good or bad that is, and hard for me to make suggestions without carefully looking at the setup/situation -- maybe someone else here can help?
[08:34] <h3xis> hivemind, ipw3945 works with edgy out of the box
[08:34] <humanspecies> steel_lady so is there any data you needed from teh disk?
[08:34] <hivemind> h3xis?
[08:34] <knight> do anyone know more about EHCI and UHCI host controllers?
[08:34] <humanspecies> steel_lady or can you reboot and try again, with no worries?
[08:34] <JosefK> hivemind: network-manager doesn't work out of the box on edgy though, you'd be best getting it with apt-zip first then installing it using a USB drive or similar
[08:34] <steel_lady> humanspecies I have windows on another partition that I can not touch
[08:35] <hivemind> Ack.
[08:35] <Rio> optimus okay... i got to that router when i typed in w3m WITHOUT 8181.... if i type it WITH it, it says "Unknown URI......"
[08:35] <rulus> steel_lady: maybe I haD windows on another partition :(
[08:35] <hivemind> JosefK is the package on the install CD?
[08:35] <h3xis> hivemind, youre talking about the 3945 daemon, i assume that's the card you have?
[08:35] <Rio> optimus ...i typed in the IP, not local ip
[08:35] <hivemind> h3xis Yup
[08:35] <humanspecies> sttel_lady did you select to install grub or liko (bootloaders) ? did you see the windows partition show up, or leave it as "untouched" in your configuration of the partitions for Ubuntu?
[08:35] <hivemind> Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG
[08:35] <h3xis> hivemind, then there's no need to configure it. it's supported out of the box
[08:35] <steel_lady> humanspecies, it started trying to read again from the CD, I am afraid to press shut down by force
[08:35] <humanspecies> s/liko/lilo/
[08:36] <JosefK> hivemind: sadly not
[08:36] <hivemind> Perhaps, but I cannot connect to the internet.
[08:36] <knight> im not able to mount my portable hard disk
[08:36] <hivemind> At least in Linux.
[08:36] <Pici> hivemind : can you connect yourself to a wired network?
[08:36] <JosefK> hivemind: grab the package directly from http://packages.ubuntu.com/, checking it's dependencies
[08:36] <steel_lady> rulus don't do that to me, it is my bosses laptop
[08:36] <humanspecies> steel_lady always better safe-than-sorry :) giving it time = good
[08:36] <Rio> Optimus, mnoir: damn, i thought this was gonna be easy... install apache, start apache, then TADA!!
[08:36] <JosefK> hivemind: then you can dpkg -i it
[08:36] <krang> join #centos
[08:36] <steel_lady> humanspecies I gave it 3 hours
[08:36] <humanspecies> steel_lady how much ram and what cpu in your latitude?
[08:36] <h3xis> JosefK, what? are you saying that it's not already in edgy?
[08:36] <Optimus> Rio, it is, I do it all the time
[08:36] <humanspecies> steel_lady ummm....
[08:37] <steel_lady> rulus if this happened, ubuntu will never see me again

[08:37] <hivemind> Wow.
[08:38] <hivemind> The dependeny list on Network-manager scares me

[08:38] <steel_lady> JosefK I don't have idea, laptop is not mine, it looks old it is dell latitude but I don't know which one

[08:38] <humanspecies> steel_lady -- don't fret. if you re-wrote drive partitions, that's recoverable, if you wrote data over the prior data... that's a different brdige-to-arrive-to-later.
[08:39] <humanspecies> steel_lady what was the last screen you saw before it blanked out? writings from teh screen?
[08:39] <Optimus> Rio, brb
[08:39] <h3xis> JosefK, it said in the system tray because i remember managing my wireless network with it
[08:39] <h3xis> JosefK, s/said/sat
[08:39] <Rio> Optimus damn, i dont know the model of my router
[08:39] <knight> ny usb portable harddisk is not able to mount. i think im using older usb driver versions what can i do?
[08:39] <steel_lady> humanspecies, it was frozen on 50% installation for ages with time left not changing
[08:39] <JosefK> h3xis: obscure, I've always had to install it by hand, guess it could be me using the alternate not live cd
[08:40] <h3xis> JosefK, could be it. my install was done through the livecd
[08:40] <steel_lady> humanspecies, should I try to shut it down on a button?
[08:40] <humanspecies> steel_lady i am trying to determine the point at which it stopped
[08:40] <humanspecies> steel_lady not sure yet
[08:40] <hivemind> Alright, I haven't used Ubuntu for a couple months... "dpkg -[options?]  foo.deb"?
[08:40] <knight> my usb portable harddisk is not able to mount. what can i do?
[08:40] <aufumy> hi, have a question about installing php5
[08:40] <steel_lady> humanspecies what else can be done? it is not responding for too long now
[08:41] <aufumy>  php5-mysql: Conflicts: php5-mysqli but 5.1.2-1ubuntu3.4 is to be installed
[08:41] <h3xis> knight, why isnt it mounting?
[08:41] <humanspecies> steel_lady - 3hrs is a long time, you might prepare for the worst and hope for the best.
[08:41] <humanspecies> steel_lady if you did your part properly and asked the installed NOT to touch the windows partition, you're going to be fine. :)
[08:41] <steel_lady> humanspecies the worst means what'
[08:41] <steel_lady> humanspecies I did that
[08:42] <knight> h3xis: i dont know what exactly is the problem theres nothing to mount from /dev
[08:42] <rulus> steel_lady: well, there's no problem then
[08:42] <h3xis> knight, what is it usually in /dev?
[08:42] <steel_lady> humanspecies now it stopped trying to read from the CD, maybe something is wrong with CD?
[08:42] <rulus> steel_lady: If I were you I should retry with the alternate install cd
[08:42] <knight> h3xis: to mount sda or sda1 etc.
[08:43] <Opermax> Hi! Does anyone know WLAN-Cards and solving problems? That's wha I am still stuck on Windows...
[08:43] <humanspecies> steel_lady perhaps *shrug*
[08:43] <aufumy> how, how do I install 5.1.2-1ubuntu3.4
[08:43] <humanspecies> steel_lady did you take the CD out and look to see if it is scratched?
[08:43] <knight> h3xis: is it not like that?
[08:43] <h3xis> knight, assuming you have a single master IDE hdd, it should be sda1 and it's not there?
[08:43] <matt4magic> Which card?
[08:43] <humanspecies> steel_lady did you also boot into windows and make sure your boss' stuff is all backed up too?
[08:43] <Opermax> DWL-G122 Rev. B 1 rt2570
[08:43] <steel_lady> humanspecies, how can I make it open CD drawer?
[08:44] <humanspecies> steel_lady or you could ghost it, and not boot into windows, before you try again
[08:44] <humanspecies> steel_lady you can do it when it is turning on and before it starts to load
[08:44] <steel_lady> ghost it how?
[08:44] <knight> h3xis: ive got a 40 gb haddisk and that i mounted from hda
[08:44] <humanspecies> try typing 'eject' if you have a root prompt
[08:44] <Optimus> Rio - whatmodel of router do you have?
[08:44] <h3xis> knight, okay, and do you have any sda devices in /dev?
[08:44] <giuseppe> freenode.net su #ubuntu-it o anche su #ubuntu-it-chat
[08:45] <Opermax> matt4magic: DWL-G122 Rev. B 1 rt2570
[08:45] <humanspecies> steel_lady google for "howto backaup a drive using ghost" or "howto backup using dd"
[08:45] <knight> h3xis: no
[08:45] <giuseppe> #ubuntu-it
[08:45] <h3xis> knight, sounds like a udev issue. have you rebooted?
[08:45] <Opermax> Hi! Does anyone know WLAN-Cards and solving problems? That's wha I am still stuck on Windows...
[08:46] <humanspecies> Exchange calendar sharing -- anyone got it working with Evolution?
[08:46] <giuseppe> excuse me
[08:46] <giuseppe> how can I go in italian chat?
[08:46] <h3xis> Opermax, which card
[08:46] <Pici>  /join #ubuntu-it
[08:46] <steel_lady>  humanspecies, tell me what should I back up? win partition? why? if I told it not to touch win, why would it do that?
[08:46] <h3xis> Opermax, or chipset, rather
[08:46] <someothernick> !hcl

[08:46] <Opermax> h3xis: DWL-G122 Rev. B 1 rt2570
[08:46] <giuseppe> where I must write this?
[08:46] <Opermax> h3xis: chipset rt2570
[08:46] <h3xis> Opermax, should work out of the box
[08:46] <Rio> Optimus i dont know the model
[08:46] <giuseppe> thanks very much
[08:46] <Pici> just type it where you are typing now
[08:46] <h3xis> Opermax, that is the rt25xx, no?
[08:46] <knight> h3xis: but i have tried it earlier also but didnt get
[08:46] <Optimus> rio -- who makes it
[08:47] <h3xis> knight, that is odd
[08:47] <Opermax> h3xis: yes
[08:47] <Rio> i believe its linksys....
[08:47] <mnoir> Rio: :)  1. Nothing is ever easy.  2.  The apache part is not that tough but routing issues can be bewildering
[08:47] <h3xis> Opermax, and it doesnt work? are you running edgy or what?
[08:47] <Azul> how can i search a file in a directory and subdirectories in a CLI?
[08:47] <Opermax> h3xis: I run Dapper 6.06 and I connect with 96% to my AP
[08:47] <knight> h3xis: ive seen from this harddisk that it is a high speed usb 2.0 harddisk
[08:47] <h3xis> Opermax, so what's wrong
[08:48] <Opermax> h3xis: But no datatransfe with WPA
[08:48] <Opermax> I send packages but receive non
[08:50] <h3xis> knight, i have no experience with udev, and it sounds like that might be your problem
[08:50] <Rio> mnoir...ahhh.....
[08:50] <h3xis> knight, i don't think it has anything to do with the udb driver
[08:50] <Opermax> h3xis: I followed HOWTO under ubuntu
[08:50] <h3xis> knight, er usb
[08:50] <knight> h3xis: i suppose my usb drive is of lower version is there anything like thta?
[08:50] <n2diy> I have an SSH problem. I have  a text file on this box called Sig_file, when I right click on it, go to properties, I see it is associated with gedit. When I SSH in to this box, and try to open that file, it doesn't work, and no apps are associated with the file? If I rename the file, and add .txt to it, I can open it remotely. Any idea why the remote box is picking up the association?
[08:50] <h3xis> knight, i dont think so
[08:50] <h3xis> Opermax, maybe you should try the serial monkey drivers? the ubuntu ones may be bad
[08:50] <knight> h3xis:i doubt whether any drivers need to be installed to work for usb 2.0
[08:50] <Opermax> h3xis: I am using  serial monkey drivers
[08:50] <knight> h3xis: is it so?
[08:50] <h3xis> knight, no theyre in the kernel
[08:50] <h3xis> knight, but that isnt the issue
[08:50] <aufumy> Hi, any takers, updating to php5 using apt-get, and it mentions The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[08:50] <aufumy>   php5-mysql: Conflicts: php5-mysqli but 5.1.2-1ubuntu3.4 is to be installed
[08:50] <aufumy>   php5-mysqli: Depends: phpapi-20051025
[08:50] <aufumy>                Depends: php5-mysql (= 5.1.2-1ubuntu3.4) but 5.2.0-0.dotdeb.3 is to be installed
[08:50] <aufumy>                Depends: php5-common (= 5.1.2-1ubuntu3.4) but 5.2.0-0.dotdeb.3 is  to be installed
[08:50] <aufumy> E: Broken packages
[08:50] <aufumy> oops
[08:50] <Una^> Hey, got a strange problem: My monitor supports 1680x1050 resolution, and xorg is loading correctly... however the sides of the screen are cut off until you move the mouse to scroll across. Any idea why?
[08:50] <h3xis> Opermax, oh wow, so dapper didnt detect it out of the box?
[08:50] <Rio> optimus, mnoir when i set up the router, it should be at tcp not udp, correct?
[08:51] <knight> h3xis: ive got other usb drives mounted easily but not this portable hardisk
[08:51] <Opermax> h3xis: it did but the HOWTO under ubuntu said it doesn't work and freezes the system
[08:52] <h3xis> knight, maybe bad disk?
[08:52] <oxigen> sorry, where can i download Edgy SMP 32bit? i cant find it, is available at all?
[08:52] <Rio> optimus, mnoir oh wait a sec... just saw what my bro did... he set it up so that the external port is 8181, and the internal port is still at 80.... should they both be at 8181?
[08:52] <Tonren> If I download the Ruby package, does it come with gem?
[08:52] <h3xis> Opermax, then maybe it is a wpasupplicant issue
[08:52] <rulus> oxigen: I thought edgy was smp by default
[08:52] <Mastastealth> oxigen: just download the regular Edgy Desktop CD 1386
[08:52] <h3xis> oxigen, the standard edgy x86 install has smp by default
[08:52] <knight> h3xis: no but i have just got it and till this time it was working
[08:53] <Opermax> h3xis: I don't even use wpasupplicant, since the driver should have with iwpriv
[08:53] <h3xis> knight, i honestly have no idea :/
[08:53] <oxigen> thank you guys! Mastastealth rulus & h3xis! :)
[08:53] <aufumy> leave #ubuntu
[08:53] <knight> h3xis: i cant get it mounted on windows also
[08:53] <Azul> aufumy, put a / before leave
[08:53] <h3xis> knight, so youre able to mount other drives, in windows and linux, but not this one?
[08:54] <knight> h3xis: yes
[08:54] <Optimus> Rio,  yes
[08:54] <aufumy> okay, thanks Azul
[08:54] <Azul> :)
[08:54] <h3xis> knight, it sounds like a bad disk
[08:54] <h3xis> knight, will it mount on other computers?
[08:54] <knight> h3xis: yes surely
[08:54] <rc-1> how do you get your system name in bash?
[08:55] <h3xis> knight, no idea
[08:55] <h3xis> rc-1, hostname
[08:55] <adaptr> rc-1: hostname
[08:55] <rc-1> thanks
[08:55] <n2diy> I have an SSH problem. I have  a text file on this box called Sig_file, when I right click on it, go to properties, I see it is associated with gedit. When I SSH in to this box, and try to open that file, it doesn't work, and no apps are associated with the file? If I rename the file, and add .txt to it, I can open it remotely. Any idea why the remote box is picking up the association?
[08:55] <n2diy> is/isn't
[08:56] <Tonren> n2diy: When you say SSH, do you mean with the command line or VNC?
[08:56] <n2diy> Tonren, nautilus.
[08:56] <adaptr> n2diy: nautilus is not a remote display protocol :)
[08:56] <adaptr> at least - that I know of....
[08:56] <Tonren> n2diy: SSH means something very specific.  Are you connecting to a remote server with Nautilus?
[08:56] <knight> h3xis: anyway thank you bye
[08:57] <beuno> n2diy, you are trying to open the file how?
[08:57] <h3xis> knight, sorry
[08:57] <n2diy> adaptr, yes it is, hit ctrl-l, and enter ssh://user@ip
[08:57] <beuno> (remotely that is)
[08:57] <Optimus> rio -- any luck?
[08:57] <Rio> Optimus its taking awhile to change....
[08:57] <n2diy> bueno, double clicking it.
[08:57] <Opermax> h3xis: I don't even use wpasupplicant, since the driver should have with iwpriv
[08:57] <beuno> n2diy, the association is made on the client too
[08:57] <marcell_> I've tried to remove Gaim 2.0 beta 5 from my Ubuntu Dapper. with 'make distclean' but it cried for permissions, so i pressed Ctrl+C, then 'sudo make distclean' ----> make[1] : *** No rule to make target `distclean'.  Stop. - Can you help me?
[08:57] <Rio> Optims rather slow since im doing it through firefox ON ubuntu
[08:57] <beuno> so it probably is nautilus, but on the client side
[08:58] <beuno> n2diy, try "Open With"
[08:58] <h3xis> Opermax, i dont know then :/ i've never used iwpriv
[08:58] <adamonline> How do I get samba to start up on startup?  It's already in init.d
[08:58] <knight> h3xis: nothing like that thanks for the help offer
[08:58] <beuno> or right clicking on it, Properties > Open With
[08:58] <n2diy> beuno: no it is on the host box, but the remote box isn't picking it up.
[08:58] <n2diy> beuno, hmm, ok.
[08:58] <beuno> and setting gedit or whatever
[08:58] <h3xis> adamonline, sudo /etc/init.d/samba start
[08:58] <h3xis> adamonline, then it should start up
[08:59] <adamonline> h3xis: How do I make it so after a reboot it will start up automatically?
[08:59] <beuno> n2diy, it doesn't matter what the host box has set, just the client (remote)
[08:59] <Pici> marcell_ : that means that distclean a valid command for make, can you check the INSTALL file that came with the gaim source for the correct syntax?
[08:59] <h3xis> adamonline, it will start up automatically
[09:00] <adamonline> h3xis: Alright... I had a feeling it would, but for some reason I just had to restart it to make it work... Thank you =)
[09:00] <giuseppe> ubuntu-it
[09:00] <adamonline> How do I find out which users are connected to my machine?
[09:00] <giuseppe> thanks :P
[09:00] <adamonline> er, not connected, but logged in?
  that was correct. I think the problem is that it cleared some files with user priviliges, than I interrupted it, so now it can't do anything :S Is it possible?
[09:01] <skvn> what does the command "sudo chmod 755 example" do?
[09:01] <Lynoure> adamonline: who  is a command for that.
[09:01] <beuno> skvn, it give write permission to the owner, and execute/read to groups and others
[09:01] <adamonline> Lynoure: Cool, thank you.  And idea why there would be 4 'adam's logged in?
[09:02] <skvn> ok, thanks beuno
[09:02] <Lynoure> adamonline: you have multiple terminals in use?
[09:02] <jaye> Does anyone know what MiB stands for? why is there an 'i' in the middle?
[09:02] <adamonline> Lynoure: One has :0, another pts/0, pts/1, and pts/4
[09:02] <beuno> skvn, np
[09:02] <adamonline> Lynoure: I do!
[09:02] <n2diy> beuno, gedit was an available option!? I had to add it manually, and then it showed up simply as "text editor", but it worked, tnx.
[09:02] <n2diy> was/wasn't
[09:02] <Lynoure> adamonline: :)
[09:03] <adamonline> Lynoure: hehheh all these silly little things I've yet to learn!  Thank you =)
[09:03] <Pici> marcell_ : sorry, I'm not sure how to repair that, perhaps someone else here could help you
[09:03] <beuno> n2diy, the options are added when you do it once, after that, it's always there
[09:03] <adamonline> Lynoure: Does that mean I could open another shell as a different user?
[09:03] <marcell_> Pici : ok, thx
[09:03] <Lynoure> adamonline: yes.
[09:03] <n2diy> beuno, ok.
[09:03] <adamonline> Lynoure: from my login? Hmmmm
[09:03] <econ426> who could I ask a question to?

[09:10] <TooR4u> .
[09:10] <ph8> have you searched ubuntuforums for solutions mag?
[09:10] <ph8> thug: what do you actually have in the machine?
[09:10] <n2diy> I can ssh into my box, but everytime I open a file, I'm required to provide my password again. Seems redundant, is there a way to suppress that behavior?
[09:10] <Traveler> thug: should work automatically
[09:10] <mag_> ph8: yes...
[09:11] <skvn> Well it says that the file owner is root, and root has write permission, but i tried with root and it said that i'm not the owner and i cant change the permissions or something, and it doesn't let me rename it either
[09:11] <thug> ph8 what do you mean ?
[09:11] <preaction> n2diy: what do you mean every time you open a file? what program are you using to ssh?
[09:11] <ph8> have you tried the feisty snapshots mag?
[09:11] <ph8> it might be your architecture's not supported in dapper
[09:11] <ph8> thug: what is the actual card, rather than what ubuntu thinks it is - or is ubuntu recognising it correctly?
[09:11] <n2diy> preaction, when I double click the file, I'm prompted for a password. I'm using nautilus.
[09:11] <bartmon> hello to all
[09:11] <MenZa> Does anyone here know of a problem that lets you load the disk, tell it to start and then the install just crashes
[09:12] <mag_> ph8: so what should I do ?
[09:12] <preaction> n2diy: then you're not using ssh... is it samba or nfs?
[09:12] <ph8> [.: 20:11:39 :.]  <ph8> have you tried the feisty snapshots mag?
[09:12] <ph8> [.: 20:11:44 :.]  <ph8> it might be your architecture's not supported in dapper
[09:12] <skvn> aah actually nevermind.. it's a textfile so i can open the backup, copy it all and replace the current one with that :P
[09:12] <thug> ph8 ubuntu recognising it correctly
[09:12] <skvn> thanks anyway :-)
[09:12] <mnoir> Rio: now you can study up to answer the next routing question :)
[09:12] <n2diy> preaction, no, I'm using Nautilus, hit ctrl-l, and enter ssh://user@ip
[09:13] <preaction> n2diy: then it has to login every single time you decide you want a file, which is retarded for you to do. why does nautilus have this "feature"?
[09:13] <steel_lady> geeeeeez I have some terrible problem buffer I/O error om hdb logical block... squashfs error unable to read or fragment cache block unable to read page...
[09:13] <preaction> n2diy: set up samba, or nfs, or something that's meant to do what you want
[09:14] <mnoir> Optimus: with Rio i missed one thing - did you have him disable listen 80 or just add 8181?
[09:14] <n2diy> preaction, I don't know, that is what I'm trying to stop.
[09:14] <steel_lady> it wrote the whole page of these errors
[09:14] <steel_lady> heeeelp!!!
[09:14] <ghatak> Hi guys, i cant get java to work with Opera, the applets do not work, do i need to do anything specific ?
[09:14] <mag_> ph8: can you help me ?
[09:14] <ubuntu_> hello
[09:14] <Optimus> mnoir, I'm pretty sure I had him disable it
[09:14] <n2diy> preaction, ok, what would you suggest, it is a totally Ubuntu network.
[09:14] <preaction> n2diy: i meant the idea of using ssh/scp to interact with another file system... does it recognize windows computers while you're at it?
[09:14] <Optimus> Rio, did you disable port 80 in your apache.conf/ports.conf?
[09:15] <preaction> n2diy: personally, i've always liked samba better
[09:15] <ph8> mag: i asked you a question! twice now
[09:15] <ph8> are you using a dapper install cd?
[09:15] <n2diy> preaction, I don't have any winder boxes, so should I still setup samba?
[09:15] <kuma> hi :) I want to make that a folder link to another location
[09:15] <mnoir> Optimus: ois - would it not have worked if he left apache alone but just forwarded 8181 to 80 at the router?
[09:15] <mnoir> ois=oh - I see :)
[09:16] <n2diy> ! samba
[09:16] <ubotwo> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[09:16] <preaction> n2diy: why not? unless you want file permissions to transfer as well
[09:16] <steel_lady> optimus, please help me I think I will commit suicide
[09:16] <mag_> sorry it's many peolple and my irc erase the entries
[09:16] <Optimus> steel_lady, well, don't do that
[09:16] <mag_> ph8: could you ask you again ?
[09:16] <ghatak> !java
[09:16] <ubotwo> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository
[09:16] <Optimus> steel_lady, what's wrong? I gather you got the partitions worked out
[09:17] <n2diy> preaction, I might as well go with samba, I bound to encounter a winders box someday. :) Samba doesn't transfer permissions?
[09:17] <steel_lady> optimus, it was frozen in the middle of installing and then I got black screen, after 3 hours i had to restart it and now I tried to bood from live CD again and it is writing cache errors all over my screen
[09:17] <preaction> n2diy: the SMB protocol doesn't know what file permissions are. there are still user credentials, but no file owner, file group, rwx bits, etc...
[09:17] <ph8> mag_: are you using a dapper install cd?
[09:18] <kuma> hi :) I want to make that a folder link to another location
[09:18] <steel_lady> Optimus it says buffer I/O error on device hdb, logical block...

[09:19] <n2diy> preaction, ok, so I need to go DL samba and swat?

[09:19] <preaction> n2diy: actually if you're using ubuntu, go to System > Shared Folders, and it will ask if you want to set up samba and/or nfs
[09:20] <steel_lady> Optimus I didn't but something went very wrong with hardware
[09:20] <kuma> hi :) I want to make that a folder link to another location
[09:20] <n2diy> preaction, ok, tnx.
[09:20] <CheshireViking_> has anybody come across software that will open MS Publisher files in Linux, I've done some searches but I can't find anything, I've tried Scribus etc but no joy, the best i've come across is a web based .pub to pdf converter
[09:20] <preaction> n2diy: make that System > Administration > Shared Folders
[09:20] <Optimus> steel_lady, can you restart the computer and boot to windows?
[09:20] <n2diy> preaction, I found it.
[09:21] <preaction> kuma: nautilus provides a way to make symlinks, otherwise `man ln` at a terminal
[09:21] <mnoir> CheshireViking_: bad news - pub is the one that has no converter that we have found
[09:21] <gh0st> help, my boot-screen is not showing anymore !
[09:21] <steel_lady> Optimus, I can not boot windows any more although I didn't touch ntfs
[09:21] <LjL> mag_: i'm sure that was a mistake, but be careful, pastes like that are clearly not welcome. p47 even
[09:21] <kuma> preaction thanks
[09:21] <helpme> hey, quick question, what is the command to open up "Disks" in terminal?
[09:21] <steel_lady> Optimus, it obviously tried to put grub and something went wrong
[09:21] <mnoir> helpme: what do you mean?
[09:22] <p47> LjL: ?
[09:22] <Optimus> steel_lady, make a folder in your home directory called cmount and then type the following: sudo mount /dev/hda1 ~/cmount
[09:22] <LjL> p47: "?" to you.... did you not notice that you pasted a crapload of IRC log lines into this channel, and you only stopped because you were muted?
[09:22] <p47> ph8: I downloaded this : ubuntu-6.10-alternate-amd64.iso , ubuntu-6.10-server-amd64.iso , ubuntu-6.10-desktop-amd64.iso AND i GOT THE SAME PROBLEM
[09:22] <helpme> Under Administration, there's the Disks application for mounting disks.... I'm in a mint live disk and the option is not there, but i need to mount linux partition so I can edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:22] <LjL> p47: (and later removed, after seeing the paste wasn't finished yet)
[09:22] <steel_lady> optimus from where could I do that? I can not boot anything!
[09:23] <CheshireViking_> mnoir: that was the conclusion i'd come to, i was just hoping i was wrong - maybe next step is to track down a way of being able to open a pdf file & edit it
[09:23] <p47> LjL: I don't understand you ?
[09:23] <Optimus> steel_lady, the LiveCD
[09:23] <steel_lady> Optimus I can not even boot from live CD
[09:23] <Optimus> steel_lady, what is the make and model of the laptop?
[09:23] <gh0st> help, my boot-screen is not showing anymore ! (the screen where the loading bar shows the boot progress) Instead there is the normal linux one with all the starting programs etc... what can i do?
[09:23] <mnoir> CheshireViking_: that one is gonna cost you :)
[09:23] <steel_lady> Dell Latitude optimus, some old version
[09:23] <helpme> anyone?
[09:23] <p47> LjL: can  you help me with my server ?
[09:24] <mnoir> CheshireViking_: on pub, we found the best way was to open openoffice and pub on windows, cut and paste and fixup
[09:24] <p47> ph8: are you here ?
[09:24] <Optimus> steel_lady, look on the bottom label and get me the exact model number
[09:24] <gh0st> helpme: mount
[09:24] <mnoir> CheshireViking_: btw - oo write does more, and better than pub
[09:24] <helpme> i'm not familiar with it
[09:24] <CheshireViking_> mnoir : that was one solution i'd seen
[09:24] <helpme> or is that it
[09:24] <LjL> p47: then here are the logs of what happened: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2168/
[09:24] <gh0st> helpme: is it a windows disk?
[09:25] <mnoir> CheshireViking_: the upside: my wife wouldn't go back to msdos stuff if i paid her
[09:25] <steel_lady> Optimus, latitude c840
[09:25] <helpme> no, just need to edit menu.lst I messed it up now can't get grub up
[09:25] <bilss_> hi
[09:25] <CheshireViking_> mnoir : i'm happy using oo write, trouble is i'm not creating the .pub files, its a windows user that creates them
[09:25] <helpme> I'm familiar with the graphical disk mounter
[09:25] <bilss_> any one use bestcrypt
[09:25] <kuma> is this correct? ln any_directory -t target_directory?
[09:25] <gh0st> helpme: normally, it should automount
[09:26] <p47> LjL: I don't understand... what did I do ?
[09:26] <timo> dose any one know how to use the obextool
[09:26] <helpme> in a live disk?
[09:26] <LjL> p47: look at those logs, i think it's clear. you paste a crapload of stuff as i said
[09:26] <mnoir> CheshireViking_: i understand - and there is no technical solution that i have found.  converting the win usr to oo write is not feasible?
[09:26] <gh0st> helpme: yes
[09:26] <preaction> n2diy: i forgot one more thing that nothing ever mentions: as root, you must set up a samba password for the users you want to use samba. `man smbpasswd` to learn how
[09:26] <wolfeySI> hell guys, suddently apache is started instead of apache2
[09:26] <steel_lady> optimus, i am going down to check if somebody has another live CD
[09:27] <wolfeySI> hello i mean
[09:27] <Optimus> steel_lady, okay
[09:27] <helpme> could someone please just go into Administration, and drag the Disks icon over to the desktop so it will create a normal launcher, and then right click that and hit properties and tell me what it has in the command box?
[09:27] <CheshireViking_> mnoir: I'd swear, but, its not the place for it here, maybe i'll try installing publisher under wine
[09:27] <p47> LjL: ok.. but what is the problem ? I don't know the problem
[09:27] <mnoir> CheshireViking_: pub is a half-donkeyed attempt at dtp that should never have been perpetrated
[09:27] <helpme> I don't want some huge disertation on the the values of using mount via the command line... i just need to know what that command is, and I'm out of your hair
[09:27] <gh0st> helpme: normally mounting a ext3 is disk goes like that: sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hdax /mnt/mountpoint
[09:27] <n2diy> preaction, ok, shared folders initiated the DL, so I'm waiting for it to finish.
[09:28] <LjL> p47: the problem is that pasting a crapload of stuff into the channel is NOT appreciated, that's the problem. it's quite simple really
[09:28] <CheshireViking_> mnoir: yep, it had its uses when all i used was windows, now i've learn't better habits :)
[09:28] <timo> i want to  file out more about obextool ,how do i  do this in the terminal
[09:28] <gh0st> helpme: where x in hda is the number of your disk
[09:28] <p47> haaaa... LjL soory my english is very poor but now I understand.. I'm really sorry !
[09:28] <gh0st> helpme: let's start: first type mount in command, only that
[09:28] <helpme> god... save me from these geeks
[09:29] <kuma> lol
[09:29] <helpme> screw it.
[09:29] <mnoir> CheshireViking_: before you spend hours on wine, make sure ipub will work in it - the wine site is good for that
[09:29] <LjL> p47: that's ok, just don't do it again please.
[09:29] <black_abaddon> helpme: i agree
[09:29] <gh0st> help me: you can only mount something when you what it is
[09:29] <gh0st> dam"
[09:29] <black_abaddon> i come here only to trall
[09:29] <black_abaddon> i am a troller
[09:29] <Linuxkrn|wrk> ok, I've tried three versions of ubuntu, two different boxes and both are flaky with network connections.  Ping works, ifconfig shows up but many system apps like update/firefox/etc cannot connect.

[09:42] <LjL> uh? what did i type
[09:42] <preaction> n2diy: depends on how paranoid you are, I end up sharing (and allowing write access) to every folder I normally access from sitting at the terminal. the cdrom drive, my home directory, and my extra hard drives
[09:43] <smoo2> i have nvidia-glx installed but i dont think it is working
[09:43] <Mastastealth> !firewall
[09:43] <n2diy> Najjstroem^_-: Strong passwords, and good permission schemes protect you.
[09:43] <ubotwo> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[09:43] <kuma> how can I ln between directories? I tried this sudo ln any_directory -t target_directory -s but i get "operation don't permited"
[09:43] <davmor2> timo have you enabled it
[09:43] <un4get> !hydra
[09:43] <ubotwo> Sorry, I know nothing about that - try http://help.ubuntu.com/community/
[09:43] <humbolto> mnoir: I am just interested in the ltsp stuff and wondering, if they manage the installation more convenient with their installer cd.
[09:43] <Steve_GPent3> Hi
[09:43] <n2diy> preaction, ok, I'll have to play around and experiment, tnx.
[09:43] <niekie> !kvm
[09:44] <preaction> kuma: ln -s <directory that exists> <directory that will be a link to the previous directory>
[09:44] <Steve_GPent3> i ma having some DVD Problems
[09:44] <smoo2> davmor2: how do you enable it?
[09:44] <Linuxkrn|wrk> ok, I've tried three versions of ubuntu, two different boxes and both are flaky with network connections.  Ping works, ifconfig shows up but many system apps like update/firefox/etc cannot connect.  I've checked and the computer is not even trying to get out (tcpdump on firewall)  this only happens on ubuntu
[09:44] <mnoir> kuma: that syntax is improper - you are specifying a hard link and some random parameters that MUST be before your directories
[09:44] <Steve_GPent3> I cannot mount a DVD, even as data. The disc is new
[09:44] <p_ibvibkib> gfg
[09:44] <Judicata> Linuxkrn|wrk: what distro works?
[09:44] <preaction> n2diy: remember that when you make a smbpasswd for a user, samba authenticates as that user, so that anything done on the filesystem is done as that user. so permissions are checked, read/write/execute bits are checked, (they just aren't transferred to another compy)
[09:44] <mnoir> humbolto: dunno - i bet they do because of the intended audience.  why don't you try it and then tell me?
[09:44] <kuma> preaction & mnoir: both directories must exist, right?
[09:45] <preaction> kuma: no, the second one must not
[09:45] <Steve_GPent3> bgb
[09:45] <Linuxkrn|wrk> Judicata: gentoo, centos, and suse all worked fine
[09:45] <mnoir> kuma: absolutely not - the actual new link must not
[09:45] <gh0st> i have lost my boot-splash-screen
[09:45] <humbolto> mnoir: I might. Will try to find out in #edubuntu first.
[09:45] <davmor2> timo:  first sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/mybackup.conf incase things go wrong.   second  sudo nvidia-xo
[09:45] <Najjstroem^_-> n2diy: so a strong password will help me better
[09:45] <mnoir> humbolto: bon voyage :)
[09:45] <n2diy> preaction, ok, what was the command again to create the samba passwd?
[09:46] <davmor2> timo sorry hit wrong button second type sudo nvidia-xconfig
[09:46] <preaction> n2diy: man smbpasswd, you'll want to do it as root to create a new samba user
[09:46] <Sicaine> shit my /boot have no kernelimage. thats normal?
[09:46] <kuma> prection: so how do i make a link between directories? like "Examples" in the /home/ directory
[09:46] <Judicata> Linuxkrn|wrk: you might try disabling ipv6, but it could have to do with the driver ubuntu uses for your card. Honestly, i'm not sure though.
[09:46] <Najjstroem^_-> Where can i change the password for root and login???
[09:46] <PriceChild> !ohmy | Sicaine
[09:46] <ubotwo> Sicaine: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:46] <humbolto> mnoir: merci beaucoup.
[09:46] <n2diy> Najjstroem^_-: yes, and you can set up a firewall if you want, check out Firestarter.
[09:46] <steel_lady> optimus, if this was windows I would say that this computer has some very bad virus
[09:46] <mnoir> humbolto: de nada
[09:46] <Sicaine> come on PriceChild ...
[09:46] <preaction> kuma: cd /home/kuma; ln -s Examples Examples-link; ls -l Examples-link
[09:47] <defend> any one here use a kernel with out a initrd?
[09:47] <preaction> kuma: the ls -l should show that Examples-link -> Examples
[09:47] <Najjstroem^_-> Where can i change the password for root and login???
[09:47] <humbolto> mnoir: I'll tell you what I found out next time I'll see you. "De nada" is not very french however.
[09:47] <PriceChild> Sicaine, please :) There is absolutely no reason for expletetives
[09:47] <davmor2> timo then hit alt-ctrl-backspace
[09:47] <preaction> !root Najjstroem^_-
[09:47] <ubotwo> Sorry, I know nothing about that - try http://help.ubuntu.com/community/
[09:47] <mwe> defend: yeah
[09:47] <preaction> !sudo Najjstroem^_-
[09:47] <n2diy> preaction, ok, so sudo smbpasswd darryl should work?
[09:47] <davmor2> you should see an nvidia sign
[09:47] <Sicaine> PriceChild: ... whatever can you help me?
[09:47] <humbolto> mnoir: "de rien" would fit better
[09:47] <Najjstroem^_-> =)
[09:47] <mnoir> humbolto: do let me know - i am curious but lazy :)  and it wasn't meant to be french :)
[09:47] <Optimus> steel_lady, you will probably have to use the keyboard then
[09:48] <kuma> prection: oh, i get it :P
[09:48] <mnoir> humbolto: tak
[09:48] <kuma> prection: will try now
[09:48] <Anthon1> I installed ubuntu to dual boot with windows, and now I can only get windows to boot. When I try to boot ubuntu the screen goes blank, and slowly displays lines of color
[09:48] <Sicaine> i looked after /usr/src for a kernelimage what i can copy to the /bootpartition but nothing. i have no idear
[09:48] <davmor2> timo did you follow that
[09:48] <preaction> n2diy: Try It And See (tias)
[09:48] <defend> FN~mwe, i am having horrible troubles trying to get away from initrd files .. everytime i boot i get VFS Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) any ideas
[09:48] <Sicaine> have ubunutlivecd a grubrepairtool?
[09:48] <n2diy> preaction, :)
[09:48] <_Sean> What is the command to create a file?
[09:48] <preaction> n2diy: and if you have problems, #samba has been helpful for me
[09:48] <Sicaine> touch
[09:49] <Zaggynl> Can anyone help me with getting sound to work?
[09:49] <Zaggynl> !sound
[09:49] <ubotwo> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin
[09:49] <mnoir> _Sean: for what purpose?
[09:49] <AbeLincoln> Hi. Whenever I restart my computer I have to reconfigure ndiswrapper to work. Where do I put the shell script to load on boot?
[09:49] <Sicaine> !grub
[09:49] <ubotwo> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:49] <_Sean> ty
[09:49] <Sicaine> nice
[09:49] <n2diy> preaction, ok that is done, now back to sharing stuff.
[09:49] <Anthon1> I think I have a graphics problem, but can't get ubuntu to boot to fix it, any suggestions?
[09:50] <mwe> defend: well, look at /boot/grub/menu.lst and verify it's correct. it shouldn't have an initrd= entry for your kernel
[09:50] <yellow> hey guys
[09:50] <yellow> how come setenv does not work ?
[09:50] <un4get> !nessus
[09:50] <davmor2> vleon ubuntu should boot you to command line if it load x
[09:50] <ubotwo> nessus - Remote network security auditor, the client - available in Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy) - See http://packages.ubuntu.com/ for more information
[09:50] <kuma> prection: yay, it worked, thanks :)
[09:51] <n2diy> preaction, I shared my home directory with NFS, how do I get to it from my remote box?
[09:51] <mwe> yellow: it doesn't ?
[09:51] <yellow> nope
[09:51] <mnoir> yellow: what shell?
[09:51] <yellow> bash
[09:51] <yellow> dapper
[09:51] <recon> Does anybody know how to make fceu run a bit faster?
[09:51] <mwe> yellow: well what do you want to do?
[09:51] <preaction> n2diy: with NFS you have to mount it iirc, with samba there's auto-discovery
[09:52] <timo> can any use  ussp-push
[09:52] <yellow> i want to set my java_home environment
[09:52] <mnoir> yellow: as i recall, setenv belonged to csh and it's derivatives.  i think you want to look at export
[09:52] <yellow> i installed the stand alone jdk.1.6.0
[09:52] <preaction> n2diy: try Menu > Places > Network Servers
[09:52] <yellow> that doesn't work
[09:52] <mwe> yellow: export jave_home=foo will work
[09:52] <n2diy> preaction, Ok, can I share it with both protocols, or is it one or the other?
[09:52] <timo> its says "Usage: ussp-push [--dev DEVID]  [--timeo TIMEO]  [--debug]  {DEVICE, BTADDR@[BTCHAN] } LFILE RFILE
[09:52] <defend> FN~mwe, i dont
[09:52] <preaction> n2diy: both will work probably
[09:52] <n2diy> preaction, ok and ok.
[09:52] <mwe> defend: I don't know then
[09:53] <defend> FN~mwe, i have done this in gentoo and debian i just have never been able to do it ubuntu
[09:53] <erster> hi
[09:53] <Yggdrasil> heyllo can somone help me , im trying to clone a hard drive that has windows and linux on it. to another hard drive. using dd ?
[09:54] <timo> can any one obex a file to a mibile device ? with bluetooth
[09:54] <mwe> defend: I see. Personally I'm using a kernel without an initrd
[09:54] <yellow> it says the path is  not a valid identifier
[09:54] <erster> jhhg
[09:54] <HymnToLife> Yggdrasil, partimage might be more appropriate
[09:54] <davmor2> vleon dd yes
[09:54] <HymnToLife> !partimage | Yggdrasil
[09:54] <ubotwo> partimage - backup partitions into a compressed image file - available in Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy) - See http://packages.ubuntu.com/ for more information
[09:54] <Yggdrasil> intersting
[09:54] <yellow> mwe,  it says the path is  not a valid identifier
[09:55] <mwe> yellow: what says that?
[09:55] <yellow> bash: export: `/home/rat/webdev/jdk1.6.0': not a valid identifier
[09:55] <p47> When I wirte
[09:55] <erster> uizi8uiu
[09:55] <p47> when I write noapic noalpic apic=off the server is freeze ! why ?
[09:55] <mnoir> yellow: the syntax is export variable=value
[09:55] <mwe> yellow: export JAVA_HOME=/home/rat/webdev/jdk1.6.0
[09:56] <mwe> yellow: probably not java_home. it's case sensitive
[09:56] <jeanjean_> how do you have to make a python script executable ?
[09:56] <HymnToLife> jeanjean_, chmod +x
[09:56] <mwe> jeanjean_: chmod +x fill
[09:57] <mwe> fk
[09:57] <yellow> thanks mwe
[09:57] <mwe> j
[09:57] <jeanjean_> I can run it with python now, but i need to run it with sh
[09:58] <jrib> jeanjean_: chmod +x
[09:58] <mwe> jeanjean_: sh file.sh
[09:58] <jrib> jeanjean_: make sure you have a python shebang
[09:58] <Sicaine> holy shit the link was good. i will look if it helps. cya
[09:58] <Sicaine> quit
[09:58] <HymnToLife> jeanjean_, ./file.py
[09:58] <HymnToLife> not sh
[09:58] <p47> can you help me with the installation ? the installations was freeze !
[09:58] <jeanjean_> then i get this error: line 4: import: command not found
[09:59] <erster> hui
[09:59] <mwe> HymnToLife: sh file.sh should work if it's correct
[09:59] <jrib> jeanjean_: do you have a python shebang?
[09:59] <jeanjean_> dont think so
[09:59] <HymnToLife> mwe, for Python scripts, too ?
[09:59] <jrib> jeanjean_: the first line should be #!/usr/bin/env python
[09:59] <HymnToLife> didn't know, I always do ./file.py
[09:59] <jeanjean_> jrib I've got that line
[10:00] <davmor2> kuma do ls -l on the file and make sure it is executable
[10:00] <jrib> jeanjean_: he I guess you can't do sh then
[10:00] <POVaddct> !grub
[10:00] <ubotwo> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:00] <HymnToLife> jeanjean_, have you tried ./file.py instead of sh ?
[10:01] <jeanjean_> yeah but still the same error
[10:01] <jrib> jeanjean_: pastebin your script
[10:01] <mwe> HymnToLife: maybe your'e right. chmod +x and ./file.sh should at least work providing it's a valid file
[10:01] <mwe> HymnToLife: file.py I mean
[10:02] <n2diy> preaction, ok it's up and working, but....  I'm still being prompted for a password when I open a file.
[10:02] <jeanjean_> jrib, it give's error on this line: "import dbus"
[10:03] <jrib> jeanjean_: what error
[10:03] <preaction> n2diy: it should prompt you for a password once, it should ask if you want to save the password in your keyring, and then it should stop asking
[10:03] <jeanjean_> 4: import: not found
[10:03] <jrib> jeanjean_: k, pastebin the script
[10:03] <n2diy> preaction, ok let me play around with it some more.
[10:03] <preaction> n2diy: is the gnome keyring manager working?
[10:03] <n2diy> preaction, not sure, I haven't seen it yet.
[10:04] <erster> hi
[10:04] <section31> when i shared a directory with samba and tried to access it on my windows machine its password protected...yet my user/pass doesn't work
[10:04] <lamego> section31, you need to add a samba user with: sudo smbpasswd
[10:04] <Pommie> section31 : Samba passwords can be managed independant of the UNIX passwords.
[10:04] <mwe> as a last resort python ./foo.py will work
[10:05] <jeanjean_> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2173/
[10:05] <raveneye> damn i wanted to say that. typing with a cig in one and a beer in the other is just too slow
[10:05] <erster> kkk
[10:05] <jeanjean_> jrib, but it works when I run the script with python
[10:05] <mnoir> raveneye: drinking with a keyboard involved is too slow :)
[10:05] <erster> hi
[10:06] <Pommie> mnoir : Unless you have a feed tube already put down your throat.
[10:06] <swx> I would like to access to harddrive config to mount win partitions pour the option is not present in System > admin menu, can you help?
[10:06] <mnoir> Pommie: :)
[10:06] <amigrave> what is the most unofficial but still "reliable" apt source for w32codecs & libdvdcss2 stuff ?
[10:06] <wizo> hey, is it possible to install ubuntu onto a external hard disk?
[10:06] <erster> ii
[10:07] <jrib> jeanjean_: works fine here, what is the exact command you are typing?
[10:07] <mwe> !w32codecs | amigrave
[10:07] <ubotwo> amigrave: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages including w32codecs | info at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages | See !codecs for more information
[10:07] <steel_lady> optimus, installation went fine, I just can not use any mouse
[10:07] <jrib> amigrave: the most unofficial?
[10:07] <Pommie> amigrave: You could try something called Automatix. That's pretty unofficial. :-P
[10:07] <amigrave> jrib: ;-) most reliable
[10:07] <mwe> !automatix
[10:07] <jeanjean_> jrib, ./rhythmbox.py
[10:07] <ubotwo> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[10:07] <raveneye> what kind of mouse do you have usb/ps2/serial?
[10:07] <amigrave> ubotwo: thanks
[10:08] <ubotwo> amigrave: Error: "thanks" is not a valid command.

[10:08] <amigrave> mwe: thanks
[10:08] <jrib> jeanjean_: I don't know, you've stumped me
[10:08] <Li`lEndian> hi, accidentally borked the system by installing the beta nvidia drivers.
[10:08] <jrib> unless your python is actually a bash shell in disguise -_-
[10:08] <Li`lEndian> how do i restore it back to the previous drivers?
[10:08] <Judicata> swx: you need to edit your /etc/fstab
[10:08] <Li`lEndian> would copying back sources.list and updating help?
[10:08] <Pommie> For the record, Automatix worked for me. YMMV.
[10:09] <mwe> Pommie: suggesting automatix is not encouraged in here
[10:09] <black_13> how do i open port 43382?
[10:09] <jrib> black_13: it's open by default
[10:09] <Judicata> Pommie: it usually does work. people here just don't like it :)
[10:09] <Pommie> mwe: I'm NOT suggesting Automatix.
[10:09] <swx> Judicata: I read somewhere in ubutnufr wiki that there was a graphical config tool to do this
[10:09] <lamego> black_13, all ports are open by default
[10:09] <mwe> Pommie: huh
[10:09] <concept10> Automatix is great for Ubuntu
[10:09] <mwe> Pommie: good then
[10:09] <lamego> i mean, open when there is something listening on them
[10:10] <Pommie> mwe: He asked for the most "unofficial". :-P
[10:10] <jrib> jeanjean_: what shell do you use?
[10:10] <wizo> is it possible to install and boot ubuntu odd an external harddrive?
[10:10] <Li`lEndian> man, am i in deep poo here. is there a way for me to downgrade to the previous nvidia driver?
[10:10] <wizo> s/odd/off
[10:10] <n2diy> preaction, ok, the keyring is working.
[10:10] <lamego> Li`lEndian, just remove the new one and install the old one using dpkg
[10:10] <jrib> Li`lEndian: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx=VERSION    apt-cache policy nvidia-glx  will show available versions
[10:10] <jeanjean_> jrib, tryed in gnome terminal
[10:10] <Judicata> swx: maybe, but editing the fstab is what most people seem to do - its not that difficult.
[10:10] <Pommie> Judicata : Yeah, so I've read elsewhere. ;)
[10:11] <Li`lEndian> ok lemme try
[10:11] <swx> Judicata: yup i understand, thank you
[10:11] <wizo> is it possible to install and boot ubuntu odd an external harddrive?
[10:11] <jrib> jeanjean_: are you sure the file that you pasted has been saved?
[10:11] <mwe> wizo: possible but not always easy
[10:12] <wizo> i see, why so?
[10:12] <section31> Pommie, so where can i manage the samba users....what's the default user
