[05:19] <sp_> cdw32, sudo apt-get remove songbird

[05:20] <ender> it does
[05:21] <cdw32> sp_: terminal says that the package songbird couldnt be found
[05:21] <losher> durando: there is a space in the directory path name. I find that confuses lots of programs. Can you rename it so it has a dash or underscore instead?
[05:21] <ravindu> any help friends?
[05:21] <ctmjr> cdw32: are you trying to install it or remove it?
[05:21] <ender> did anyone here get my poste?

[05:22] <giiker> cdw32: I installed songbird once and did not run that well in Jaunty, just a heads up,
[05:22] <cdw32> giiker i am running hardy

[05:22] <cdw32> for some reason i cant install jaunty
[05:22] <sp_> I must have missed it
[05:22] <ender> I thought I did
[05:22] <ender> but no one has responded yet
[05:22] <sp_> I think you didn't
[05:23] <cdw32> giiker: i just need a program to let me put songs on my ipod

[05:23] <giiker> cdw32: just download the tar and extract it, there will be a binary there
[05:23] <DasEi> !ipod | cdw32
[05:23] <giiker> cdw32: and then just make a link to the binary that is it!
[05:23] <cdw32> giiker:i have no clue what that means
[05:24] <cdw32> sorry
[05:24] <sp_> visit those websites
[05:24] <giiker> cdw32: ohh ok
[05:24] <cdw32> giiker and sp_ i have on ly been on linix for a few weeks
[05:24] <Besogon> giiker, When I had come to my friend and tried to connect with a wire my netbook to his computer, my link-local adress wasn't appropriated to netbook. So I did it by hand.
[05:24] <giiker> go to songbirdd website and download the file
[05:25] <madLyfe> when i type in /var/log/dpkg.log as root is says permission denied
[05:25] <giiker> cdw32: once you have it, right click it and choose extract here
[05:25] <sp_> cdw32, a tar is like a zip, you use tar -xvvf (archivename) to extract
[05:25] <trakcyia> can I delete Linux Kernel Headers safely?
[05:25] <sp_> cdw32, and a binary is an executable file, like windows *.exe
[05:25] <giiker> cdw32: once the extracted you will see a folder named songbird
[05:25] <cdw32> giiker once i have what
[05:26] <giiker> cdw32: go in it and double click songbird.bin
[05:26] <sp_> madLyfe, use sudo
[05:26] <giiker> cdw32: once you have the file in your box
[05:26] <trakcyia> Can I safely delete Linux Kernel Headers?
[05:26] <ender> Paste from Ender at Thu, 20 Aug 2009 00:25:54 +0100
[05:26] <madLyfe> sudo /var/log/dpkg.log ?
[05:26] <DasEi> trakcyia: you speak of recent kernel versions ?
[05:26] <ender> does that mean I have successfully used the pastebin?
[05:26] <madLyfe> that says command not found..
[05:26] <giiker> trakcyia: it depends
[05:26] <sp_> ender, yes ?
[05:27] <sp_> ender, give us the link
[05:27] <ender> where is it?
[05:27] <MadGirl> i guess it is showing all errors or that emerge -uDNvt @system @world does bring up (brought) up packages... but it seems maybe not all of them .... or it is a recent problem or a problem because we usually assume you are working from a root terminal, unless we tell you to logout of the root terminal
[05:27] <cdw32> i will try to follow this giiker
[05:27] <ender> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256105/plain/
[05:27] <wrapster> finally i resolved all the dependency errors in installing sunwsproc and ended up with this one..needed help pls
[05:27] <trakcyia> Dasei yes this is a fresh install
[05:27] <giiker> cdw32: ok
[05:27] <slightlysalted> can someone help me? i want to have visual effects my i need to update my driver but hardware driver doesn't find it
[05:27] <wrapster> dpgk -i sunwsproc*.deb
[05:28] <sp_> ender, the address in the address bar after you posted
[05:28] <sp_> ender, good
[05:28] <wrapster> Error: sunwsproc depends on sprosslnk; however pkg is not installed
[05:28] <hellowe> Do you care? http://www.anontalk.com/ICARE !
[05:28] <sp_> ender, so, remind me of the problem?
[05:28] <DasEi> trakcyia: it's always wise to have 2 or more working kernels, in case an update fails, so not usefull to delete the headers, need them for hardwaresupport
[05:29] <ender> I had the grub error 17. So I reloaded grub to fix it. Then I found I couldnt boot to xp and recieved grub error 22
[05:29] <sp_> ok good
[05:29] <server7> Hi everyone, I'm getting "DUAL SPLIT SCREEN" on my mythbuntu (Only watch tv).. I have ATI RADEON XFX 4850HD   3DDR, 1GB), I have a Samsung 1080p sync Master T260HD  25,5 inch. I know the problem is with a graphic card, but how do I fix this problem?? Thank you
[05:29] <wrapster> but when i try to install sprosslnk.. this is what i get.... Error: <sprosslnk*.deb trying to overwrite /usr/bin/c++filt' which is alos a pkg binutils >
[05:29] <wrapster> what do i do now?
[05:30] <wrapster> :q
[05:30] <trakcyia> dasei, assume all hardware is installed properly, could the headers then be removed without removinc hardware dependencies?
[05:30] <sp_> ender, cat /etc/fstab and paste that in pastebin
[05:30] <ravindu> I got genius USB speakers for laptop but ubuntu 9.04 even recognize it but works fine with windows.I want to get it worked with ubuntu coz I hate microsft
[05:30] <trakcyia> I ask because I have several backups with clonezilla
[05:30] <sp_> ravindu, sound problems are pretty difficult to debug
[05:30] <trakcyia> So I don't worry so much about failure, I keep my important data on a separate partition
[05:30] <sp_> ravindu, for me at least
[05:30] <ianCC> guys know how i can change my resolution
[05:31] <DasEi> trakcyia: many programs need them to function properly, you can dry with --dry-run option to see, what else (uneeded packages afterwards) will go
[05:31] <DasEi> try*
[05:31] <trakcyia> Ah, thanks DasEi for the very informative reply.
[05:32] <ender> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256107/plain/
[05:32] <sp_> ianCC, lxrandr, or grandr
[05:32] <dre360> wrapster ^_^
[05:32] <ravindu> sp_ ,thing why ubuntu hardly recognize USB Devices
[05:33] <sp_> ender, do you know what's on sdb3, sdb2, and sdb1 ?
[05:33] <wrapster> dre360: can you look into this pleasE?
[05:33] <ender> I believe sbd1 is my windows partition
[05:33] <dre360> wrapster
[05:33] <mook_> well sp it seems to be updateing everquest so i think it might work
[05:33] <wrapster> you want me to write and paste it once again? I'll do that :)
[05:33] <sp_> what you need to do is figure out what partition has windows (maybe use gparted?) and let grub (using menu.lst) where to load it from
[05:33] <DasEi> trakcyia: another thing is when you collected lots of kernels and dkms d/l 'ed all the headers, you won't need them any more, just have least 2, better more kernels an their environment alive
[05:33] <ender> let me run gparted real quick
[05:34] <giiker> cdw32: did you get it?
[05:34] <sp_> ender, that should do the trick... when you find windows we can work on the menu.lst
[05:34] <ender> my xp partition is sdb1
[05:35] <sp_> mook_, I've never used wine
[05:35] <server7> Anyone??
[05:35] <MadGirl> Anyone is, like, using xorg-server with USE=minimal?
[05:35] <giiker> cdw32: it is like downloading a zip file and extract it, after that you just have to run the binary (executable) that is it
[05:35] <DasEi> !compile | cdw32
[05:35] <ianCC> i imstalled grandr, but how do i run it
[05:36] <crdlb> MadGirl: wrong channel?
[05:36] <dre360> wrapster may be the sprosslink has dependency tree that is not install
[05:36] <MadGirl> bugger all, i dunno, crdlb
[05:36] <ender> xp is sdb1
[05:36] <giiker> DasEi: songbird does not install
[05:36] <crdlb> MadGirl: sounds like you want #gentoo
[05:36] <DasEi> ianCC: type it in trml
[05:36] <mook_> sofar so good
[05:36] <wrapster> dre360: ill do a pastie and let you knw.. the way ppl are conversing here its very difficult to follow...
[05:36] <wrapster> hold on pls
[05:37] <ravindu> I got genius USB speakers for laptop but ubuntu 9.04 even recognize it but works fine with windows.I want to get it worked with ubuntu coz I hate microsft
[05:37] <DasEi> giiker : what error do you get ?
[05:37] <dre360> wrapster past it a 3 min i am install grub2 and going to configure and reboot
[05:38] <sp_> ender, do you have your windows CD?
[05:38] <giiker> it is not me who has the prob, it is cdw32
[05:38] <error404notfound> Alexia, there?
[05:38] <ianCC> still only gives me to resolution options
[05:38] <sp_> it seems like the easiest way is to boot windows CD, press R for recovery console, and then type FIX MBR
[05:38] <bucky> MadGirl: you mean Option "GlxVisuals" "minimal"  in xorg.conf
[05:38] <giiker> cdw32: have you already tried Amarok, it rocks, better than Songbird for me.
[05:38] <dre360> wrapster just give me 3 min
[05:38] <ender> no I only have a crack cd
[05:38] <wrapster> ok
[05:38] <ender> which I cant get into command line
[05:39] <giiker> DasEi: it is not me who has the prob, it is cdw32
[05:39] <DasEi> cdw32: what do you need the app for ? see :
[05:39] <mykas0> hi everyone, once more
[05:39] <DasEi> !mp3
[05:39] <Vero> i'm listening to The Killers with I Can't Stay since 02:40
[05:39] <sp_> or maybe use grub-install /dev/sda
[05:39] <ianCC> .....
[05:39] <ender> me?
[05:39] <sp_> ender, or maybe use grub-install /dev/sda, and see if that helps
[05:39] <ender> ok
[05:40] <sp_> I'm not sure about that one though... try it out and tell us how it goes
[05:40] <madLyfe> sudo /var/log/dpkg.log ? that says command not found..
[05:40] <Cyber-Dogg> so how about my ATI x10 remote?
[05:40] <Cyber-Dogg> remote wonder
[05:40] <mykas0> How can I fix hard drive (i.e. sector) disk errors in ubuntu? Can anyone please help me with this?
[05:40] <Cyber-Dogg> it worked fine during the install process
[05:40] <Cyber-Dogg> but after install, it doens't work now
[05:41] <ender> it wants me to check to see if the map is right
[05:41] <DasEi> mykas0: e2fsck
[05:41] <sp_> madLyfe, cat /var/log/dpkg.log
[05:41] <sp_> and sudo it
[05:41] <giiker> mykas0: bad sectors are sgns of HD eminent HD failure, back up and get a new one
[05:41] <cdw32> giike: im not having any luck iwth this
[05:41] <giiker> cdw32: did you get any error?
[05:41] <giiker> cdw32: have you already tried Amarok, it rocks, better than Songbird for me.
[05:41] <mykas0> giiker, the problem is that I can't, in this particular case; I just want to fix them, to make them work at least for a while
[05:41] <ender> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256109/plain/
[05:42] <mykas0> DasEi, can you please give me a "for dummies" explanation on how to use that?
[05:42] <cdw32> giiker: and i can put songs on my ipod iwth it?
[05:42] <DasEi> mykas0: best way is to boot in live, then run : sudo e2fsck -p  /dev/sdXX   with the hd  NOT mounted , find correct device by sudo fdisk -l
[05:42] <ender> that was output
[05:42] <giiker> mykas0: well, i have a question, do you have any critical/important data in your HD?
[05:42] <sp_> yes I read it
[05:42] <sp_> hold on
[05:42] <mykas0> giiker, no
[05:42] <sp_> you have 3 hard drives ?
[05:42] <sp_> windows is in partition 1 of drive 1, right?
[05:42] <giiker> cdw32: that i dont know, dont like ipdos
[05:43] <ender> one is a usb I am fixing for a friend
[05:43] <giiker> mykas0: well bad sectors will be handled by the HD itself nowadays, and will be not shown to the OS
[05:43] <giiker> mykas0: but you will keep getting bad sectors
[05:44] <mykas0> giiker, I know, but the problem is that I'm trying to reinstall ubuntu and xp, and it doesn't let me, because of all those errors
[05:44] <cdw32> giiker; songbird i cant get to work and banshee was no better
[05:44] <wrapster> dre360: http://pastie.org/589422

[05:55] <ianCC> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/910GL Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 04)
[05:55] <DasEi1> heh, depends on the cooler
[05:55] <coreyman> I think I accidentaly wrote something about fake raid to my hard disk, how can I format it now?
[05:55] <Nerd42> Hey I'm trying to setup NTFS support. I installed the package "Support Device Manager"
[05:55] <madLyfe> crap.. still cant find it..
[05:55] <giiker> cdw32: nooooo, have you ever used synaptic?
[05:55] <cpu_temp> sp_: I am using intel centrino duo, core 2 duo
[05:55] <giiker> cdw32: you might wan to try amarok
[05:55] <cpu_temp> on Lenovo thinkpad T60
[05:55] <DasEi1> coreyman: have you got a live cd ?
[05:55] <sp_> cpu_temp, cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature
[05:55] <Nerd42> I have two NTFS hard drives. Xubuntu is running via Wubi on the first one
[05:55] <cdw32> giiker im not sure if i have
[05:55] <Nerd42> I'd like to mount both in xubuntu
[05:56] <Nerd42> is that doable?
[05:56] <cdw32> i really have no clue with linux
[05:56] <ianCC> it doesnt say i need any drivers
[05:56] <coreyman> dasei1 I am booted in to the live cd and I couldn't mount the disk..
[05:56]  * Nerd42 is following the instructions from !ntfs
[05:56] <DasEi1> coreyman: sure, ope a terminal ..
[05:56] <Nerd42> !ntfs
[05:56] <cpu_temp> sp_: yes it shows 90C for both :(
[05:56] <Comrade_Tuttle> Hey quick question, I'm trying to install Enemy Territory via the .run file from Id. I'm installing it by making it a executable through preferences but it won't give me permission to write to the file directory. How can I give it permission?
[05:56] <sp_> cpu_temp, are your legs on fire?
[05:56] <ianCC> this is where i would normaly get them > http://support.gateway.com/support/drivers/search.asp?ref=step&st=browse&platform=10021&model=11469&os=10406&type
[05:56] <giiker> cdw32: did you read here http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-songbird-music-player-in-ubuntu.html
[05:57] <coreyman> dasei1 it told me that there was an error mounting it the ntfs file system was corrupt or something
[05:57] <cpu_temp> sp_: should I try cleaning up the cpu fan ?
[05:57] <cpu_temp> sp_: I cleaned it up about a month ago
[05:57] <DasEi1> coreyman: terminal open ?
[05:57] <sp_> cpu_temp, your cpu should never run that hot, it's designed to shut down at 70-80º
[05:57] <cpu_temp> ok
[05:57] <coreyman> dasei1 one sec botting back in
[05:57] <coreyman> booting
[05:57] <cpu_temp> what do you suggest sp_ ?
[05:57] <cjs> So how do I download and examine an ubuntu source package?
[05:57] <Besogon> Hello. What make link-lical adress (169.254.0.xxx) in 9.04? I have found on page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZeroConfNetworking that there is needed zeroconf package. But in my repositary I have only kde-zeroconf. And I don't use KDE! help
[05:57] <sp_> but of course, if the fan is acting up, and you're experiencing related issues, cleaning it is a good idea
[05:58] <sp_> cpu_temp, is it a laptop?
[05:58] <coreyman> dasei1 booting up now, may take a minute
[05:58] <cpu_temp> yes!
[05:58] <ianCC> i need my drivers
[05:58] <silv3r_m00n> how to install this > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:MySQLadministrator1.png   , I mean what is the package name
[05:58] <DasEi1> !source | cjs
[05:58] <prince_jammys> cjs: apt-get source package_name , if you have the deb-src lines in your sources.list
[05:58] <mykas0> giiker, any more ideas on how to patch it up, at least for the time being, i.e. less than 1 month?
[05:58] <giiker> cpu_temp: 90 degrees Celcius or Farenheit?
[05:58] <sp_> cpu_temp, if you can touch the bottom without getting burned, I think it's safe to assume it's not really 90º
[05:59] <cdw32> giiker no but i will try
[05:59] <Comrade_Tuttle> Hey quick question, I'm trying to install Enemy Territory via the .run file from Id. I'm installing it by making it a executable through preferences but it won't give me permission to write to the file directory. How can I give it permission?
[05:59] <coreyman> dasei1 out of curiosity what commands are we going to be running when i get booted up
[05:59] <cjs> Oh, I see. Silly me, thinking that aptitude would allow me to get the source.
[05:59] <giiker> cdw32: thatÅ is the easiest one i remembered!
[05:59] <sp_> Comrade_Tuttle, use sudo chmod +x
[05:59] <neil_d> on my amd64 the flash player has stopped working :( firefox says it hasn't the plugin :( I have re-configured the "flashplugin-installer" package but this hasn't helped. Can anyone help?
[05:59] <naiad> Is it possible to just update my sources file and have gnome 2.2.6 installed on hardy?
[05:59] <Comrade_Tuttle> thank you
[05:59] <cpu_temp> I think I will shut it down
[05:59] <cpu_temp> giiker" thats celcius
[05:59] <sp_> sorry chattr
[05:59] <DasEi1> coreyman: install partitoner and rewrite parti-table
[06:00] <giiker> cplx_: that's hot
[06:00] <giiker> cpu_temp that's hot
[06:00] <ianCC> whats with this weird flash player too
[06:00] <cjs> ubottu, prince_jammys, And now, where did it put the source code?
[06:00] <coreyman> dasei1 i tried to create partitions with the installation cd, is this going to do anything different?
[06:00] <sp_> giiker, don't you think 90 is WAY too hot?
[06:00] <prince_jammys> cjs: downloads it to your current working dir.
[06:01] <cjs> Ah.
[06:01] <sp_> Comrade_Tuttle, sudo chmod +x (file-name)
[06:01] <Xerran> neil_d: U still there?
[06:01] <DasEi1> coreyman: hopefully succesfull, heh
[06:01] <Alexia> Would the person I was talking to about devilspie please send me a tell
[06:01] <neil_d> Xerran: yes
[06:01] <giiker> sp_: oh yeah!! but sometimes there are problems with the readings
[06:01] <cjs> I take it that the directory it unpacked includes the patches?
[06:01] <giiker> cpu_temp did you touch it yet?
[06:01] <coreyman> dasei1 :(
[06:01] <Xerran> neil_d: Go to synaptic and uninstall flash plugin and installer
[06:02] <DasEi1> coreyman: trml up ?
[06:02] <dsl830> cpu_temp is gone i think
[06:02] <Xerran> neil_d: tell me when your done
[06:02] <giiker> that's why i could not autocomplete his nick
[06:02] <Alexia> does xchat have a history function
[06:02] <coreyman> dasei1 for some reason that time it gave me an error when i selected the "try ubuntu without any change to computer" after loading for a while it said /dev/sda error blah blah
[06:02] <cjs> Grr. "Cron Daemon" is hard-coded as the full name when cron sends e-mail.
[06:02] <giiker> but i still saw him online, weird
[06:03] <cjs> So I have messages from twenty different machines in my mailbox, and they're all from "Cron Daemon."
[06:03] <coreyman> dasei1 i think its loading this time
[06:03] <DasEi1> coreyman: give it time, though complains, shall boot
[06:03] <coreyman> dasei1 oh ok, lol
[06:04] <losher> cjs: what kind of messages?
[06:04] <coreyman> dasei1 yea it's bootin up i see the gui now
[06:04] <Xerran> neil_d: Did you do it yet?
[06:04] <cjs> Output of various cron jobs. Apticron, our business systems, etc.
[06:04] <The_Bridge> g' afternoon (GMT + 7) all
[06:04] <giiker> sp_: sometimes the temp reported by the bios is higher than the surface temperature
[06:05] <varsendaggr> hey
[06:05] <neil_d> Xerran: just finished.
[06:05] <Xerran> okay
[06:05] <cjs> losher: Oops, wrong channel.
[06:05] <varsendaggr> j /Blender
[06:05] <dsl830> maybe his cpu died just now ;)
[06:05] <Xerran> neil_d: download this http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-<IP_ADDRESS>.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
[06:05] <coreyman> dasei1 ok .. sudo apt-get install partitioner ?
[06:05] <cjs> Oh, no it is the right one.
[06:05] <losher> cjs: usually cron will only send messages when something it runs produces output. If you make sure to pipe the output from jobs into a mail program, you can set the subject line explicitly. Let me know if you need an example...
[06:05] <cdw32> giiker: im not having any luck...im just not cut out for linux
[06:05] <DasEi1> coreyman: sudo apt-get install gparted
[06:06] <coreyman> dasei1 oh i already tried that
[06:06] <coreyman> dasei1 the disk has to be mounted first
[06:06] <Xerran> neil_d: go to your .mozilla and make a folder called "plugins"
[06:06] <coreyman> dasei1 and it won't mount the disk, gives me an error
[06:06] <DasEi1> coreyman: NO
[06:06] <w4rr10r> m
[06:06] <losher> cjs: seems on-topic to me...
[06:06] <cjs> losher: That seems a bit of a pain, since I also then have to deal myself with making sure it doesn't send mail if there's no output, right?
[06:06] <coreyman> dasei1 installing
[06:06] <giiker> cdw32: to run songbird, one does not have to install it. so you might be doing something wrong, go take a break and do it again
[06:06] <dbdii407> Where are all the applications installed at?
[06:07] <cjs> You're talking basically, "foo 2>&1 | sendmail -s "foo output"" kinda thing?
[06:07] <Xerran> neil_d: extract the .so file and drag it or copy and paste it into that plugins folder you made
[06:07] <neil_d> Xerran: its going now... I wonder why it didn't work when I did a dpkg-reconfigure on the same package.
[06:07] <giiker> cdw32: sometimes once get stuck on the same thing again and again, but with a little cofee, you will see thing clearer
[06:07] <coreyman> dasei1 ok done installing
[06:07] <naiad> can anyone point me to a sources list that will update gnome to 2.2.6 on hardy? (8.04.3)
[06:08] <DasEi1> coreyman: sudo geparted
[06:08] <Grifulkin> I don't know who I asked for help earlier from but if they are still here and looking at what I am writing then I fixed my problem with bad internet connection I thought it was because it was Ubuntu while all the other computers were Windoze but I downloaded Wicd and now it works flawlessly I didn't know the network manager had that much to do with it
[06:08] <cdw32> giiker: i am im going to bed...thanks for the help...
[06:08] <cjs> Anyway, seems to me that perhaps working from the mutt display end of things first might be a better solution.
[06:08] <Xerran> neil_d: extract the file than drag it to the plugins folder you made
[06:08] <Guest48422> hi this is my second day of chatting...
[06:08] <Acedip> how do i play .mov files in ubuntu??
[06:08] <coreyman> dasei1 sudo gparted ? or sudo geparted
[06:08] <giiker> cdw32: np
[06:08] <Xerran> neil_d: is it working now?
[06:08] <Grifulkin> I'm never going to use a different network manager I don't think
[06:08] <Brando753> what is the maximum supported ram for ubuntu 9.04
[06:08] <DasEi1> coreyman: sudo gparted, *
[06:09] <coreyman> dasei1 ah ok, well its up and running
[06:09] <DasEi1> Acedip: vlc or mplayer or ...
[06:09] <neil_d> Xerran: yes
[06:09] <coreyman> says no devices detected in bottom left
[06:09] <giiker> allright everyone, have a good night...
[06:09] <Xerran> neil_d: cool
[06:09] <neil_d> Xerran: thanks.
[06:09] <Acedip> DasEi1, no its not playing .mov files
[06:09] <Guest48422> can u help me to learn linux
[06:09] <quantolf> hey all, i need some help with samba shares...specifically user control with samba
[06:09] <Xerran> neil_d: np
[06:09] <DasEi1> Acedip: vlc for sure
[06:10] <quantolf> i want to share a folder
[06:10] <quantolf> i have one user with read write access that was added on the ubuntu install
[06:10] <DasEi1> coreyman: choose your 150 gig disk ( upper right corner)
[06:10] <quantolf> and i just added another user that i want to only have read access
[06:10] <quantolf> i created the new user in ubuntu
[06:10] <coreyman> dasei1 nowhere listed
[06:10] <losher> cjs: actually, I cheat. The only thing in my crontab is 50 3 * * * /bin/sh /home/losher/save/cronjobs/daily 2>&1 | mailx -s 'losher1 daily run' losher. Then I run everything from  /home/losher/save/cronjobs/daily and all the various outputs go in one big email to losher. If I needed anything more sophisticated e.g. put the output in a file, onlly send email if the file is non-zero size, then I could do it inside "daily"
[06:10] <quantolf> and added him to the read only list in the smb.conf file
[06:11] <quantolf> but it's not permitting him to login
[06:11] <cjs> Yeah, my jobs are not just daily, though.
[06:11] <cjs> I really do use all of the facilities of cron, including various things running as various users.
[06:11] <kermit> oh i bet all my wireless troubles (intel 5100agn) were from having old firmware
[06:12] <losher> cjs: I understand, but the same principle applies. Just a suggestion...
[06:12] <Acedip> DasEi1, well vlc cant play it
[06:12] <Brando753> whats ubuntu max supported ram?
[06:12] <cjs> losher: Thanks. It would be painful for me to move that way, Unfortunately. Some of these are from hosts I have very little admin access to, as well, and the admins would probably rebel against major changes in how they set up cron jobs.
[06:13] <cjs> Brando753: Depends on the host and architecture, but probably in the hundreds of gigabytes.
[06:13] <Brando753> :P
[06:14] <losher> cjs: I suppose another option would be to filter your incoming mail, looking at the headers, which *will* say which machine they are from, and process the mail accordingly...
[06:14] <DasEi1> coreyman: in the upper right corner of gparted there is an downeeroor, click it, select disk
[06:14] <cjs> I use 12GB machines regularly, and I saw no reason why on some of these it would fail if I just filled up the slots and went to, say, 96 GB. I don't know if it would show up interesting performance problems in the kernel, though.....
[06:14] <coreyman> dasei1 everything is grayed out except help and the very left menu button
[06:15] <neil_d> cjs: just how many slots do they have?
[06:15] <DasEi1> coreyman: you started with sudo ?
[06:15] <cjs> neil_d: 24.
[06:15] <coreyman> dasei1 yes
[06:15] <losher> servers these days have room for ridiculous amounts of memory
[06:15] <quantolf> what' the comand to print the group of a user?
[06:15] <coreyman> dasei1 i checked to make sure disk was running, it is running, i plugged it in different slot and just rebooted
[06:16] <cjs> neil_d: These are some fairly nice supermicro 1U boxes.
[06:16] <The_Bridge> need advise on RAID configuration
[06:16] <cjs> quantolf: "id <user>"
[06:16] <DasEi1> coreyman: strange, close gparted, run : sudo fdisk -l
[06:16] <mazda01> anyone tell me where the default ubuntu wallpapers are storefd? i'd do a locate but I don't know the filename
[06:16] <losher> quantolf: er, groups
[06:16] <coreyman> dasei1 yea nothing was listed
[06:16] <neil_d> cjs: and I thought 4GB was a lot.
[06:16] <mazda01> quantolf, groups
[06:16] <quantolf> how do i print all groups available?
[06:16] <cjs> Hee hee hee. I've not bought a machine with less than 6GB in ages. :-)
[06:16] <mazda01> quantolf, will show you all the groups the user running the command belongs to
[06:17] <DasEi1> coreyman: plugged in ? a usb so, the drive has to be attached, but not mounted
[06:17] <neil_d> quantolf: cat /etc/group
[06:17] <mazda01> quantolf, not sure, but you can look at the users and groups within system, admin
[06:17] <losher> neil_d: for home uise it's plenty. But lord knows what the big boys e.g. google, ebay, amazon have in their servers...
[06:17] <cjs> From the groups manpage: "Same as id -Gn.".
[06:17] <mazda01> quantolf, neil_d is correct. good call
[06:17] <quantolf> i'm doing this cli
[06:17] <mazda01> anyone tell me where the default ubuntu wallpapers are storefd? i'd do a locate but I don't know the filename
[06:17] <quantolf> i have ubuntu-server installed
[06:17] <quantolf> and i think it's about time i get cli understood
[06:17] <coreyman> dasei1 as stated above the disk is plugged in and running, i just switched the hole the sata cable was connected to
[06:18] <quantolf> and how do i add a user to a group?
[06:18] <quantolf> you guys are like a faster version of google :B
[06:18] <cjs> quantolf: "adduser username groupname"
[06:18] <quantolf> ps. anyone know of a great reference guide online?
[06:18] <neil_d> losher: I don't know... but I think they mostly rely on 100's or 1000's of individual servers.
[06:18] <coreyman> dasei1 ok i see it now
[06:19] <coreyman> dasei1 it is listed there...
[06:19] <coreyman> dasei1 let me see what i can do now
[06:19] <DasEi1> Acedip: I watched a mov few hours ago in vlc, for sure;; prbly not completely downloaded, start vlc from trml to see
[06:19] <coreyman> dasei1 this scrub raid controller for this old board is quirky
[06:19] <DasEi1> coreyman: in fdisk or gparted you can see it ?
[06:19] <coreyman> fdisk
[06:19] <quantolf> ok that didn't work damnit
[06:19] <coreyman> installing gparted right now
[06:20] <quantolf> anyone know samba well?
[06:20] <losher> neil_d: I don't know either, but from a management standpoint, better 100 really big machines than 1000 small ones
[06:21] <ian__> ok i got my monitor specs
[06:21] <ian__> http://www.monitorworld.com/Monitors/nec/multisync3vjc1535vma.html
[06:21] <ian__> so how can i configure the resolution
[06:22] <quantolf> wow i fixed my problem
[06:22] <quantolf> i hate how simpel that was
[06:22] <quantolf> how do you remove a group from a user?
[06:22] <coreyman> dasei1 sweet i see it in gparted now, odd how i just had to change the slot it was plugged in
[06:22] <coreyman> is ext4 good now? like should i use it for a main FS? or should i wait for bugs to be gone.
[06:22] <neil_d> losher: this a little off topic.. but there is a limit to how many concurrent connections any CPU can handle, no matter how much RAM it has.
[06:23] <ian__> can anyone help
[06:23] <Guest48422> hi
[06:23] <ian__> fggh
[06:23] <Guest48422> any one there ??
[06:24] <gogeta> nope
[06:24] <dsl830> no
[06:24] <Guest48422> i need help
[06:24] <Guest48422> ??
[06:24] <DasEi1> coreyman: fine, now device >create partition table
[06:24] <gogeta> and
[06:24] <error404notfound> is there a way to give "f" priority over "i" in command likes cp, mv, rm? i have created aliases of these commands with -iv, when i use rm -rf from command line, it behaves like rm -rvif so asks me for confirmation, i dont wanna unalias rm/cp/mv everytime i need to delete lot of files.
[06:24] <neil_d> Guest48422: 1257 loged on atm
[06:24] <Guest48422> funny :)
[06:25] <quantolf> how do you remove a group from a user?
[06:25] <aread> quantolf: remove their name in the group file.
[06:25] <DasEi1> !ask |  Guest48422
[06:25] <quantolf> how?
[06:25] <gogeta> DasEi1: youy runed it
[06:25] <cjs> losher: Turns out that in mutt, "subscribe<EMAIL_ADDRESS>does the trick if you use %L for the name display in the mail index format (which is the default).
[06:25] <quantolf> or where
[06:26] <losher> cjs: very cool. Much neater than the pile of perl I would've used...
[06:26] <Guest48422> i need to know about linux kernal
[06:26] <aread> quantolf: gedit /etc/group
[06:26] <quantolf> ty
[06:26] <coreyman> dasei1 what type of partition table? msdos?
[06:26] <neil_d> quantolf: use "system->administration->User and Group" for a GUI
[06:26] <Guest48422> why it is differ from windows kernal
[06:26] <DasEi1> coreyman: yes
[06:27] <coreyman> dasei1 k done
[06:27] <DasEi1> coreyman: when done, click apply
[06:27] <quantolf> i'm enjoying vi :D
[06:27]  * gogeta just lost intrest in the topic
[06:27] <danl> what is the max number of characters bash can accept as parameters to a command typed by the user in terminal? or is there a max?
[06:27] <DasEi1> gogeta: see you over in a sec
[06:27] <neil_d> Guest48422: It differs in many ways (on being it works properly)
[06:28] <coreyman> dasei1 yea it did that, and i also told it to create a new ext3 file system spanning the whole disk, and it's working on that now
[06:28] <gogeta> DasEi1: lol does not the windows vs linux topic
[06:28] <cjs> losher: I'm still tempted to munge it with procmail, since there's still a lot of redundant info in that 15 char field, but it will do for the moment.
[06:28] <dsl830> wait, they're different? ;)
 when we trying install ubuntu inside of windows how that two kernals manage them selves
[06:29] <coreyman> dasei1 all operatoins successfully completed, looks like i'm on my way to install now.
[06:29] <DasEi1> coreyman: that wouldn't have been needed, the installer would recognize the disk after the initial steps already, I think you'are best off with guided install, so you it double
[06:29] <losher> danl: I'm pretty sure there'll be a maximum, but it'll be quite large. Best not to rely on it though as it might vary from system to system
[06:29] <gogeta> dsl830: nope one and the same at least in oz land
[06:30] <gogeta> lol
[06:30] <dsl830> ;)
[06:30] <danl> losher: ok, was just wondering, I was writing a perl script for a client and didn't know the max number of arguments that they would be allowed to enter, might also be better asked in #perl, thanks
[06:31] <DasEi1> danl : tell me if you find it in short
[06:31] <coreyman> dasei1 is there a way to get a server install from the regular cd?
[06:31] <losher> danl: same problem. If you push the limit, there's no guarantee it'll be portable or even compatible from one version to the next.
[06:31] <histo> Okay how does ubuntu tell X to use the nvidia driver if it doesn't add anything to xorg.conf
[06:31] <histo> ?
[06:32] <gogeta> histo: its called automation
[06:32] <DasEi1> coreyman: no, but you can apt-get anything just even from a minimal install
[06:32] <gogeta> histo: very neat trick we have been doing since 1995
[06:32] <histo> gogeta: well i'm trying to do it with just xorg installed and need to know what their scripts are doing.
[06:32] <coreyman> dasei1 yea server is bare min and that's what i was looking for, guess i'll just download the disc
[06:32] <ian__> i need to change my resolution
[06:32] <ian__> please help me
[06:32] <losher> gogeta: if only it worked better....
[06:32] <danl> I don't expect them to push the limit, but I like to know for bounds testing :-) granted it just takes a comma separated string, splits it, sticks it into an array and loops on the array, if it works for 10, it should work for<PHONE_NUMBER>...
[06:32] <ian__> i have my monitor specs
[06:32] <gogeta> losher: lol yea
[06:33] <ian__> i need this done
[06:33] <DasEi1> coreyman: no, minimal is bare min, server is extended to webservices
[06:33] <DasEi1> !minimal
[06:33] <gogeta> histo: well you can still use the xorg.conf as a override for the auto if you have issues
[06:33] <histo> I can get it working by specifying Driver "nvidia" just wondering how ubuntu does it.
[06:33] <coreyman> dasei1 i wanted webservices -gui last time i installed it, that's what it was
[06:33] <histo> gogeta: I'm just running xorg no gnome etc... So I don't have all the bells and whistles
[06:33] <varsendaggr> hey blender is all funky with ubuntu!!   it sucks
[06:33] <losher> danl: ok, as long as you understand the risks...
[06:33] <ian__> all you have to do is tell me how to edit the conf file or whatever
[06:34] <gogeta> histo: heh
[06:34] <Guest48422> hi did any one knows linux network
[06:34] <ian__> i have been trying but it gives me wierd warnings and stuff
[06:34] <DasEi1> coreyman: that's the server cd then, but anyway you can alter it forth and back later as you wish
[06:34] <Guest48422> how to gei GUI in ubuntu server
[06:34] <gogeta> hahahaha
[06:35] <Guest48422> how to get GUI

[06:37]  * losher sighs
[06:37] <gogeta> losher: rather then going w desktop
[06:37] <DasEi1> gogeta:what might #ubuntu-offtopic be like around this time ? ;-)
[06:37] <ian__> HELP
[06:37] <gogeta> DasEi1: im in ther
[06:37] <dre360> please before you all go installing grub2 please use this link to get the info on the grub2 bug http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-upgrade-to-grub2-on-ubuntu-jaunty.html
[06:37] <histo> now I just have ot figure out how to get my sound working
[06:37] <losher> someone please tell Guest48422 what to type to get the x11 server installed instead of just kibitzing...
[06:38] <ian__> you guys know how to help, and all im asking for is your help
[06:38] <gogeta> losher: fine
[06:38] <Karhuton> how can i see the package update descriptions from command line?
[06:38] <ian__> i have 5 min to get this done
[06:38] <gogeta> he left
[06:38] <gogeta> lol
[06:38] <beautiful> ae
[06:38] <ian__> i nes ubuntu was shit
[06:39] <losher> gogeta: I'm not surprised. We were monumentally unhelpful considering we're a support channel...
[06:39] <losher> ian__: here's your money back...
[06:39] <gogeta> losher: baa thers support then thers dumb moves
[06:40] <losher> gogeta: if you're not willing to put up with the occasional dummies, you're in the wrong channel...
[06:40] <gogeta> losher: lol the why is linux diffrent get me the most
[06:41] <gogeta> losher: dont take me to hart today tired
[06:41] <Comrade_Tuttle> So i tried the sudo chmod +x and then booted the .run file with in the same terminal and still getting no write permission
[06:41] <losher> gogeta: I don't mind that either. I hate the ones too lazy to google...
[06:42] <dsl830> is chmod +x the same as chmod a+x?
[06:42] <gogeta> losher: driving linux bliend is one thing adding the other factor is another
[06:42] <zruty> Sometimes Google yields all kinds of results except what one is looking for
[06:42] <Karhuton> dsl830: yes
[06:42] <losher> gogeta: or the ones who keep me waiting 10 minutes then come back and say "sorry, I was on the phone". Like my time is worth nothing because they aren't paying. Mutter, mumble...
[06:42] <qdb> hello
[06:42] <leaf-sheep> dsl830: No. +x just add execution permission for your user where a+x add execution permission for all users.
[06:42] <gogeta> lol
[06:42] <Karhuton> no? hm
[06:42] <dsl830> ty leaf-sheep
[06:43] <Karhuton> dsl830: it is
[06:43] <leaf-sheep> dsl830: Using a+x mean applying it to root account too... and any other users you may have.
[06:43] <leaf-sheep> dsl830: Welcome.
[06:43] <gogeta> zruty: we where just flying off topic nv us
[06:43] <Karhuton> leaf-sheep: it adds it to everyone
[06:43] <durando> i have a drive that mounts through fstab to a folder but still shows up under places how can i have it mount but not show the drive under places
[06:43] <quantolf> i'm attempting to install the 3ware CLI (eventually the web gui).  i downloaded and untarred the files and now I'm left with a .bin file...where do i go from here?
[06:43] <Karhuton> leaf-sheep: +x is same as a+x, just try it out
[06:44] <quantolf> this is in CLI fyi
[06:44] <dsl830> Karhuton is right
[06:44] <dsl830> just tried it
[06:44] <canthony> i am using xrandr to add my second monitor to the right of the first.  everything works as expected when i issue a --same-as command, but when i doe a --left-of or --right-of, it extends the desktop but still mirros the screens.  it is actually making the virtual desktop bigger (and the appropriate options are in xorg.conf) but the two are still mirrored
[06:44] <losher> gogeta: or user devzero, who berated me publicly, telling me I shouldn't be advising people at all, when the advice I gave him was correct, he just didn't wanna hear it...
[06:44] <aread> leaf-sheep: chmod doesn't know about users.
[06:45]  * losher <rant mode off>
[06:46] <canthony> the same command work fine in Karmic, but thats proabbly irrelevant
[06:46]  * gogeta total iq lost to windows user -10
[06:46] <mixmatch> anyone else having issues with kernel updates being pushed to them daily?
[06:46] <Karhuton> question: how can i see the package update descriptions from command line? the "bugs fixed" info that is shown in the graphical updater
[06:46] <Karhuton> i've tried googling for this but seems impossible because the terms are too vague
[06:47] <losher> Karhuton: no, it's a good question. I'm looking forward to hearing someone answer..
[06:47] <canthony> Karhuton, apt-cache show <pkg> might provide that info
[06:47] <mcmlxxi> I've found F12 to lock screen, but it doesn't work. how come?
[06:47] <qdb> hello. i connected to internet with pppoeconf and set to connect on start, but now it did not connect automatically on or 2 times. how can i check what are options of pppoeconf now? where is configuration file?
[06:48] <mazda01> my screenshot command just sits there forever after I click save. the folder is there and writable, what could be the problem? anyone know how to issue screengrab from command line so I can see ouputing error possibly?
[06:49] <DigitalKiwi> mazda01: scrot
[06:49] <mixmatch> I'm getting kernel 2.6.28-15 as an update every day. is anyone else having this issue?
[06:49] <Alexia> I was for a few days mixmatch
[06:49] <Karhuton> canthony: i now have apache2 as upgradable package but apt-cache didn't show anything extra
[06:49] <theatro> mixmatch, did you update it ?
[06:49] <theatro> mixmatch, or does it say package was kept back?
[06:50] <mixmatch> yes, why is it sending the same version number again?
[06:50] <aread> Karhuton: Have you looked at aptitude?
[06:50] <Alexia> mixmatch, I installed it once and then it asked again, and I installed it again now it doesnt come up anymore
[06:50] <leaf-sheep> Karhuton: aptitude changelog <packagename>
[06:50] <mixmatch> ok, well, I've seen the same thing on my desktop and server with the generic and server versions of the kernel
[06:50] <Karhuton> leaf-sheep: found the info, thank you
[06:51] <mixmatch> I wish they would update the version number of they are going to push changes so I don't think something is wrong. you know?
[06:51] <Alexia> mixmatch, Yah it really is confusing, im not sure what the problem is
[06:51] <Alexia> mixmatch, I agree
[06:51] <mixmatch> well, hopefully it won't come up again...
[06:51] <mixmatch> thanks alexia
[06:52] <Alexia> mixmatch, your welcome anytime
[06:52] <mcmlxxi> I've bound F12 to lock screen, but it doesn't work. any ideas?
[06:53] <LavaEagle> You didn't have it combo'd at all did you?
[06:53] <quantolf> how do i extract a .bin file?
[06:53] <Alexia> mcmlxxi, do you have a keyboard with seperate functions(such as media functions) on top of the function keys
[06:54] <Karhuton> quantolf: .bin files are of not any standard format - type 'file nameoffile.bin' to console and check if it tells you what type of file it is
[06:54] <LavaEagle> I would like to explode my computer.  Would I need to use sudo for this?
[06:54] <differentreality> hey!  I would like to know if I can access .hta files from linux, right now i am running ubuntu 9.04    thanks
[06:54] <quantolf> Karhuton: POSIX shell script text executable
[06:54] <Alexia> LavaEagle, lol
[06:54] <LavaEagle> Compile the bin file?
[06:54] <Karhuton> quantolf: so it's not a binary file, it's a text file
[06:54] <Karhuton> it's a nvidia driver package?
[06:55] <quantolf> Karhuton: 3ware 3dm2
[06:55] <Karhuton> you just execute it
[06:55] <quantolf> how through cli?
[06:55] <Karhuton> ./thefile.bin
[06:55] <Karhuton> chmod +x thefile.bin if it's not executable yet
[06:55] <mazda01> all of a sudden gnome-screenshot --interactive doesn't save the screenshot anymore. it just sits there with the spinning wheel like it's trying to save the picture but it can't? any thoughts?
[06:55] <quantolf> Karhuton:  i get this error:           'bc' command was not found. Please make sure bc is in the path and run the installer again.
[06:55] <EagleScreen> Karhuton: the changelog?
[06:56] <EagleScreen> LavaEagle: you can o it without sudo
[06:56] <quantolf> Karhuton: i've installed it before through a gui and a java gui popped up and i used that to install
[06:56] <quantolf> Karhuton: i'm trying now thorugh cli only
[06:56] <mazda01> nevermind, somehow / is full. need to find out what to delete pronto
[06:56] <gpraveen> hi
[06:56] <LavaEagle> EagleScreen: You don't know how much time you just saved me!
[06:57] <Karhuton> quantolf: try: ./thefile.bin --help or -h
[06:57] <mazda01> where the trash can again in jaunty?
[06:57] <Karhuton> maybe it gives some parameters you can try to get it running
[06:57]  * DigitalKiwi thought everyone had bc
[06:57] <Karhuton> and try: 'which bc' to check that you actually have it already
[06:57] <quantolf> same error
[06:58] <quantolf> oh shit fuck did i forget to do that
[06:58] <quantolf> god damn me
[06:58] <FloodBot3> quantolf: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:58] <eekfonky> how do I register at nickserv?
[06:58] <mcmlxxi> Alexia, no I don't
[06:58] <DigitalKiwi> !language | quantolf
[06:58] <leaf-sheep> !register | eekfonky
[06:58] <quantolf> apoligzies
[06:58] <EagleScreen> LavaEagle: you can explode your ubuntu without sudo, but it will be safe after reset computer, but sudo or root account is ussualy easy to hack in ubuntu
[06:58] <quantolf> *apoligizes
[06:58] <quantolf> i can't spell
[06:59] <zruty> You know how to spell 4 letter words though
[06:59] <quantolf> that's plum luck
[06:59] <mazda01> where the trash can again in jaunty?
[06:59] <aread> differentreality: IE under Wine.
[06:59] <leaf-sheep> !trash | mazda01
[06:59] <quantolf> Karhuton: didn't have bc installed :) working so far... :)
[07:00] <quantolf> i'm so happy i could lick a flower
[07:00] <majuk> quantolf: Just one?
[07:00] <mazda01> thanks leaf-sheep
[07:00] <DigitalKiwi> the poor flower!
[07:00] <quantolf> majuk: 4 if it's a clover!
[07:00] <zruty> Lick a rose: It will hurt a bit but you'll smell better
[07:01] <quantolf> zruty: i like spinach too :)
[07:01] <quantolf> i'm going cross-eyed
[07:01] <dsl830> i'm so happy i could lick a toad
[07:01] <LavaEagle> Ah man I just sudo'd all over my computer
[07:01] <quantolf> lol
[07:02] <LavaEagle> This chinese food is terrrible
[07:02] <Alexia> LavaEagle, LOL!!
[07:02] <DigitalKiwi> you accidentally the entire sudo?
[07:02] <LavaEagle> All of it
[07:02] <zruty> I just reallized... sudo is also a 4 letter word
[07:02] <quantolf> But what about sudoku?
[07:02] <LavaEagle> Just sitting here and I accidentally it on my desk
[07:02] <LavaEagle> sudoku?
[07:02] <Myrtti> let's keep ontopic please
[07:03] <Myrtti> this channel is for Ubuntu support
[07:03] <quantolf> Fair 'enuff
[07:03] <LavaEagle> My apologies
[07:03] <sharperguy> How do i view stored passwords in firefox?
[07:03] <Myrtti> offtopic to #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:03] <EagleScreen> I have a Debian testing installation, and inside it, in /jaunty-root i have a full usable installation of Ubuntu jaunty, Can I boot that jaunty installation from grub or grub2?
[07:03]  * zruty switches his behave mode ON
[07:03] <Myrtti> sharperguy: there should be a button for showing them
[07:04] <LavaEagle> I just got my brother to install Ubuntu after trying Mint, kubuntu and LXDE.  Any suggestions to make his comp a bit more l33t?
[07:04] <dre360> to all has anyone used ksplice it is sweat
[07:04] <DShepherd> sharperguy, edit-preferences-security-saved password
[07:05] <leaf-sheep> LavaEagle: L33T? Remove usplash so you can see text scrolling up at boottime.
[07:05] <sharperguy> DShepherd, thankyou
[07:05] <dsl830> remove X?
[07:05] <DShepherd> sharperguy, your welcome
[07:05] <EagleScreen> or remove quiet to see text and usplash at the same time
[07:05] <losher> EagleScreen: yes, you should be able to boot it from the debian grub by suitably editing the boot files. I dunno the details for the debian boot stuff though...
[07:05] <qdb> hello. i connected to internet with pppoeconf and set to connect on start, but now it did not connect automatically one or 2 times. how can i check what are options of pppoeconf now? where is configuration file?
[07:06] <Alexia> LavaEagle, Install a custom Booscreen
[07:06] <EagleScreen> losher: Debian boot stuff is just the same than Ubuntu
[07:06] <Alexia> LavaEagle, and an awesome splas screen
[07:06] <LavaEagle> Alexia: Good idea!
[07:06] <LavaEagle> Alexia: You got any sites or am I off to google?
[07:06] <kraut> moin
[07:08] <dsl830> moin
[07:09] <losher> EagleScreen: then you can copy the debian boot entries in its menu.lst and change the paths and uuids etc. to point to files in /jaunty-root
[07:10] <EagleScreen> how can I set in menu.lst or grub.cfg a root= parameter that points to a folder inside a partition?
[07:10] <EagleScreen> root=/dev/sda2/jaunty-root does not work
[07:11] <riz0n> is there software on the ubuntu live CD that can mirror the contents of one partition to another?
[07:11] <aread> rizon: dd
[07:11] <aread> riz0n: sorry, dd
[07:12] <EagleScreen> riz0n: gparted may do it, but the best it partimage unless partition to be ext4
[07:12] <riz0n> its going to be an NTFS drive to be honest with you
[07:12] <EagleScreen> dd is also a good choice
[07:12] <losher> EagleScreen: oh, I see.  You're right, I don't think it can be done. You'd have to make a new root partition and move the contents of /jaunty-root to it...
[07:13] <EagleScreen> yeah, losher but i really do not want more partitions
[07:13] <nomad> u want the link or can u open it on your laptop?
[07:13] <nomad> srry wrong chat
[07:13] <EagleScreen> riz0n: partimage has experimental support for NTFS
[07:14] <losher> EagleScreen: I don't think you have any choice in the matter. Like you said, I don't think you can boot to a folder inside a partition...
[07:14] <riz0n> EagleScreen: thanks. i'll give it a try. worse comes to worse, i can set everything up fresh on the PC. there's practically nothing on it anyway.
[07:14] <EagleScreen> losher: i know it would be a good improvement in GRUB
[07:15] <Mrokii> hello all. Recently I built a new kernel (2.6.30) and now I found that there are a lot of sources from older kernels on the hd (like a folder named "linux-headers-2.6.28-11"). Is it save to remove/uninstall them?
[07:16] <losher> EagleScreen: Cool. start programming. Grub needs programmers :-)
[07:16] <bug> wtf
[07:16] <ZeDN0R> someones already bug?
[07:18] <extuser> does anyone know of an irc channel dealing with the topic of depression? or a good place to search for such? google was no help.
[07:19] <leaf-sheep> extuser: IRC is not a place for that.  Period.
[07:20] <extuser> it would probably beat sitting at home alone.
[07:20] <Myrtti> extuser: a) this is Ubuntu support, not Yellow Pages b) professional help!
[07:21] <leaf-sheep> extuser: Join #ubuntu-offtopic #defocus and participate in conversations -- But not about depression.  You're just bored.  Is all.
[07:21] <gogeta> extuser: jump off the nearest bridge and make shure to post it on youtube well have a buddy do it
[07:22] <Myrtti> gogeta: you're not helping.
[07:22] <Threetimes> Hi, I want to access a FTP directory, but it doesn't work in all programs.
[07:23] <wrapster> dre360: you there?
[07:23] <vitek_> Threetimes, are you sure all connection settings are correct? (port,passwd...etc)
[07:23] <wrapster> can you look into the pastie and let me know please
[07:24] <Steil> how do i play 1080p on ubuntu?
[07:24] <LavaEagle> Threetimes: FileZilla, Make sure Correct user and password, don't put a port.
[07:24] <dinexi> Hello. How can I set up a virtual device in ALSA that outputs sound to both onboard sound card (hw0) and USB 5.1 headset (hw1)?
[07:24] <Threetimes> vitek_: I can access it with Nautilus and many other programs, but some programs don't like FTP.
[07:24] <Steil> x264
[07:24] <Steil> i want to play x264 on ubuntu
[07:24] <LavaEagle> Steil: Have a monitor that supports it, have a file like mkv or something, and VLC
[07:25] <extuser> yeah not helping. i didn't realize until his post that i'm not doing as well as i thought.  maybe helping myself is not such a great idea.  i'll see the family doctor tomorrow. i'll be alright.
[07:25] <mcmlxxi> can anyone help me with my key-binding problem?
[07:25] <dre360> wrapster i am back
[07:25] <Steil> LavaEagle: i just wanted to see the crabs on the actress
[07:25] <Steil> its a nudie flick
[07:25] <Steil> my monitor doesn support it
[07:25] <Steil> i just want to zoom in
[07:25] <wrapster> dre360: http://pastie.org/589422
[07:25] <FloodBot1> Steil: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:25] <eekfonky> ubuntu one daemon keeps crashing with a fatal error on start up, can I fix this?
[07:25] <LavaEagle> mcmlxxi: What you need?
[07:25] <wrapster> dre360: that the pastie
[07:25] <Steil> LavaEagle:  can you zoom in on vlc?
[07:25] <dre360> wrapster sorry but grep2 shit up my system got the link
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> eekfonky: is it essential?
[07:26] <wrapster> thats fine... I just need help from you :)
[07:26] <vitek_> Threetimes: then its definitely in settings, the principle of ftp access is the same for all.
[07:27] <Threetimes> vitek_: I mean I used the places menu to connect to me FTP-server and I made a bookmark to the right folder. In most Open/Save/whatever dialogs I can see the bookmark. Not in all programs. It's a QT4 program, if that matters.
[07:27] <eekfonky> ActionParsnip: I really need to sync the files so as that my colleague in france can use and update them
[07:27] <paul_nm> hola
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> eekfonky: you could disable it as part of your bootup sequence but have it starting later
[07:27] <paul_nm> im having a problem installing an nvidia driver ubuntu 8.10
[07:27] <mcmlxxi> LavaEagle, I've bound F12 to lock screen, but it doesn't work. any ideas?
[07:27] <canthony> i have a single card on radeon driver and two DVI ports.  everytime i xrandr one dviport/monitor, the same settings are applied to the other dvi port.  for example if i --pos 1680x0 for DVI-1, the same --pos is applied to DVI-0.  the display settings app works fine however
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> eekfonky: if you install bum and run it with gksudo you can edit the bootup and edit it out
[07:28] <vitek_> Threetimes: hmm, i use muCommander and its all i need. try watching terminal, where that program of yours goes wrong.
[07:28] <canthony> any idea as to why xrandr is not making a distinction between my DVI ports?
[07:28] <EagleScreen> losher: it would be a kernel improvement, not a grub improvement
[07:28] <EagleScreen> #linux
[07:28] <losher> EagleScreen: I suspect it would be both...
[07:29] <Threetimes> vitek_: I just cannot see the Place in the Import dialog, that's what goes wrong.
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> eekfonky: maybe it needs something that isnt loaded yet during the boot

[07:34] <ActionParsnip> !beryl | Rishab_
[07:34] <ActionParsnip> Rishab_: you can use compiz-fusion in any distribution of linux
[07:34] <xangua> Rishab_: Compiz Fusion is aviable for debian also
[07:35] <dre360>  wrapster what is your os
[07:35] <Rishab_> can i get the same jelly effect in my debian ??
[07:35] <wrapster> Im running Nexenta on Vbox and solaris as host
[07:35] <ActionParsnip> Rishab_: yes, its the same application
[07:36] <syntax> whats the jelly effect?
[07:36] <wrapster> dre360: Im running nexenta as guest on vbox and solaris as host
[07:36] <ActionParsnip> syntax: i think s/he means wobbly windows
[07:36] <syntax> oh ok
[07:37] <dre360> wrapster solaris good
[07:37] <canthony> man no matter what i do xrandr keeps affecting both DVI ports, i dont know why/how the display configuration app is working and xrandr is not
[07:37] <wrapster> im essentially trying to compile a few things on nexenta for which i need sunwspro(sun studio12) but running into these issues
[07:37] <ActionParsnip> !dualhead | canthony
[07:37] <wrapster> dre360: solaris is good...
[07:37] <DigitalKiwi> lol switch distro for desktop effects >.>
[07:37] <wrapster> dre360: do you suggest i remove that default one present and install or is there a way to overwrite it?
[07:38] <canthony> yeah dude im pretty well versed in xrandr xineramr, i have a 4-head setup at work
[07:38] <wrapster> dre360: with the new pkg i want to install (that being sprosslnk)
[07:38] <xangua> Rishab_: and what versión of debian are you using¿¿
[07:38] <CodeWar> from under /sbin/init I m seeing a lot of ***d applications launched in my process manager. Is there a way to control what daemons are launched when my system starts
[07:39] <myself> is there any way to make it so the "Open with.." doesn't keep changing the program, like say for image files from Gimp to Image Viewer every time I use a various program to open a file, because it moves from the menu to the top at the spot of the pop-up menu. I'm talking about this: http://i32.tinypic.com/2uzxhzt.png

[07:42] <Rishab_> xangua am using BOSS (debian based OS)
[07:42] <dre360> wrapster what is get is that you have to download sunwspro package and compile
[07:42] <ActionParsnip> haf1ztang: i gave you the guide, you need to use the b43fwcutter
[07:42] <dre360> wrapster sorry for the typing ^_^
[07:42] <ActionParsnip> haf1ztang: that will make you a driver
[07:43] <eekfonky> ActionParsnip: restarted then waited a few minutes before opening ubuntuone daemon, still crashed
[07:43] <zruty> How to make sure html gets redirected to an https URL? Apache
[07:44] <wrapster> dre360: what i did was apt-get install sunwspro... This download took 12hrs and all the dependencies were downloaded... then many of them were not installed as the order of installation was not right.. I rectified everythign and now i'm left with only this... one
[07:44] <wrapster> dre360: apparently without this im unable to dwd some other pkgs like mercurial-common

[07:44] <wrapster> dre360: as there is a conflict at sprosslnk
[07:45] <firecrotch> zruty: This should help you: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-apache-force-https-secure-connections.html
[07:45] <haf1ztang> ActionParsnip: eventho im using Wicd connection manager
[07:45] <ActionParsnip> haf1ztang: you could be using no manager at all, if the driver is bad yo won'y get anything
[07:45] <henry__> hai
[07:45] <ActionParsnip> haf1ztang: you dont have a good driver for your wireless, you need the driver installing so you can then use wicd
[07:47] <ActionParsnip> haf1ztang: like if you have no sound, if your sound driver is bad, no amount of moving the volume sliders up and down will do anything as the card is not configured
[07:47] <nitheesh> hi

[07:47] <tazmania> what is the recommended swap area size on a 15GB space?
[07:48] <gogeta> tazmania: eh they used to say dubble the ram but 512 mb pr 1gb should do
[07:48] <tazmania> I am trying to install ubuntu desktop version on my laptop to have dual boot with my XP
[07:49] <tazmania> my ram is 1GB
[07:49] <Dextorion> morning
[07:49] <ActionParsnip> !dualboot | Azzmodan
[07:49] <ActionParsnip> oops
[07:49] <ActionParsnip> wrong target, tazmania see above^
[07:49] <mereo> Good morningéMight
[07:49] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: make sure you MD5 check the ISO file you download
[07:50] <canthony> ActionParsnip, i figured out xrandr's problem, it was force using the same crtc for each monitor identifier
[07:50] <tazmania> ActionParsnip: what do you mean?  I just downloaded the desktop version from ubuntu website
[07:50] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: thats fine, but you have no way of knowing the data is ok do you
[07:50] <histo> I'm really confused now.
[07:50] <DigitalKiwi> http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-swap-space.html tazmania
[07:50] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | tazmania
[07:51] <histo> sdlmame has no sound. But if I ssh to the box and forward X and run sdlmame the box plays the sound.
[07:51] <wrapster1> dre360: you there
[07:51] <histo> but a local user can't
[07:51] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: install CDs are massively intollerant of bit errors, so you can check it with MD5 to make sure what you have is correct
[07:51] <zruty> firecrotch: Thanks!
[07:51] <tazmania> why do I need to check the md5 of the downloaded iso?
[07:51] <histo> I need a smoke at my last straw
[07:51] <tazmania> oh i see
[07:51] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: ubottu gave you some links, use them
[07:51] <firecrotch> zruty: You're welcome :)
[07:52] <nitheesh> hi
[07:52] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: if the hashes do not match you will need to redownload
[07:52] <dre360> wrapster  i am here trying to figure out your problem and google it at the same time ^_^ O i found out i am going to be a father yesterday
[07:52] <tazmania> what are the chances?
[07:53] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: some
[07:53] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: its very advisable to chack as if you have a bad ISO the install will be bad or may not complete or may damage your system
[07:53] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: it takes like 20 seconds
[07:54] <haf1ztang> ActionParsnip: b43-fwcutter is already the newest version. <- do you i already installed it?
[07:54] <tazmania> OK
[07:54] <leaf-sheep> tazmania: It's a simple command. md5sum ubuntu-jaunty.iso and it'll print out bunch of characters.  You compare it with the website to ensure your downloaded ISO are not corrupted.
[07:54] <tazmania> OK
[07:54] <nitheesh> i want install redmine

[08:03] <tazmania> i couldn't find the md5sum on ubuntu website
[08:03] <tazmania> the iso i downloaded was ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso

[08:04] <Ben64> google is your friend :)
[08:05] <Dayofswords> also right as yu download the page says "Learn how to verify that your CD downloaded ok: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM"
[08:05] <tazmania> my iso matches the md5sums link
[08:05] <tazmania> now I can install, correct?
[08:06] <Dayofswords> si
[08:06] <Dayofswords> also found the link for all version's md5 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes

[08:06] <lillux> hello everybody from italy!  i got a  problem with grub... can someone help me? thanks in advance
[08:07] <Ben64> !ask | lillux
[08:07] <LavaEagle> Does anyone need any help??
[08:07] <LavaEagle> Alright cool.
[08:07] <Dayofswords> italy? is it nice there? btw you can just ask, no need to ask to ask
[08:07] <ActionParsnip> !it | lillux
[08:08] <ActionParsnip> Dayofswords: gogeta: why do they insist on doing that, its so frustrating and scrolls irc channels
[08:08] <LavaEagle> Can someone explain to me what grub is?
[08:08] <C-S-B> has anyone played bluray through a vista VM?
[08:08] <dutchbuntu> LavaEagle: http://www.google.com/cse?cx=partner-pub-2070091971271392%3Aougxymc6y19&ie=UTF-8&q=what+is+grub&sa=Search
[08:09] <C-S-B> LavaEagle: grub = bootload
[08:09] <C-S-B> er
[08:09] <tazmania> so 1GB for Swap
[08:09] <Jyxt> grub is a bootloader..its what tells your computer what to do after the BIOS is finished
[08:09] <LavaEagle> Ty CSB
[08:09] <tazmania> Primary or Logical?
[08:09] <Dayofswords> its just polite to ask, you know in school, that say "raise your hand to ask" then later you said "can i ask you something?" its programmed into us!
[08:09] <dutchbuntu> LavaEagle: in short: grub is a bootloader. Gives you the possibility to choose between OS'es
[08:10] <LavaEagle> Thats all I was looking for :)
[08:10] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: make 3, swap / and /home
[08:11] <lillux> hello! im  unable to boot my ubuntu 9.04, grub told me error 22 no such partition....
[08:11] <tazmania> ActionParsnip: Why /home?
[08:12] <tazmania> I have 15GB of space, swap 1GB -> primary?
[08:12] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: it helps if you need to reinstall, you can simply wipe out the other 2 and reinstall, then re-add the home partition to fstab (although the ubuntu installer allows you to set its mount point at install time)
[08:12] <dutchbuntu> lillux: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414205
[08:12] <lillux> the live cd of ubuntu 8.04 told me that i have 2 media, the one with  ubuntu 9.04 and one little that i think is of ubuntu 8.04
[08:13] <dutchbuntu> lillux: probably an error in your menu.lst
[08:13] <tazmania> i see
[08:13] <dutchbuntu> lillux: sorry, ignore last post
[08:13] <lillux> ok
[08:13] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: if you have 1Gb ram then 1Gb swap will do you, 15Gb isnt a huge amount to play with
[08:13] <dutchbuntu> lillux: link is ok though. might work for you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414205
[08:13] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: you could give about 5 or 6Gb to / and leave the rest to /home
[08:13] <tazmania> my entire hard drive is only 60GB and XP has only taken 45GB
[08:14] <lillux> i have deleted ubuntu 8.04 so the  grub is drunk.....
[08:14] <dutchbuntu> hmm, so might be your menu.lst after all
[08:15] <lillux> yes i think so
[08:15] <Dextorion> lillux, if you deleted the linux partition you probably need to reset your MBR aswell. Do you run linux at all now?
[08:15] <lillux> i m on live cd
[08:15] <Dextorion> lillux, right. And on your harddrive?
[08:15] <lillux> yes
[08:15] <thomthom> you can restore gurb from the live cd lillux
[08:15] <lillux> im running on my laptop, only by live cd
[08:15] <Dextorion> lillux, what do you have on your hard drive? Windows? Linux?
[08:16] <tazmania> the install is quite slow compared with fedora
[08:16] <Dayofswords> winxp bootloader setup is annoying you forget how
[08:16] <Dayofswords> to fix it
[08:16] <alper_y> lillux i think it can help you: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351
[08:17] <tazmania> what's the difference between creating a Primary or Logical partition?
[08:17] <lillux> Dextorian good question :) let me explain :D  i had win and ubuntu 8.04, then i deleted win and  i installed ubuntu 9.04 ...  then again i move my personal file from ubuntu 8.04 to 9.04 and deleted the 8.04 one
[08:17] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: go find out
[08:17] <tazmania> what's your recommendation
[08:18] <lillux> and now grub tell me that i have 9.04 and 8.04 but doesnt work
[08:18] <Dextorion> lillux, so you have ubuntu 9.04 only. But it doesnt work.
[08:18] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: you can have 4 primary partitions so if you are using less than 4 partitions you can make them all primary
[08:18] <Dextorion> lillux, ok, and grub think you still have both.
[08:18] <lillux> yes, and the live cd tell me that i have 2 media: the part with 9.04 and the old swap of 8.04
[08:19] <lillux> yes
[08:20] <Dextorion> lillux. alright.. i guess first thing would be to edit your menu.lst. i belive dutchbuntu pasted a good link for you. lets see
[08:20] <Dayofswords> hey i've have yet to try the NBR, does it have a live part to it like the cd versions?
[08:20] <Dextorion> lillux, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414205
[08:20] <lillux> thank you guys i really appreciate ;)
[08:20] <ActionParsnip> Dayofswords: sure
[08:20] <Dextorion> lillux take a look at that one first. see if it can help you
[08:21] <Dextorion> lillux: you will have to know what harddrive and what partition you have your ubuntu 9.04 on.
[08:21] <lillux> how can i do it?
[08:22] <nras> how can i update to latest version of ubuntu
[08:22] <lillux> i have only one hard drive partitioned
[08:22] <Dextorion> lillux ah.. your on a live cd. hm
[08:23] <jcmarini> gidday
[08:23] <J-_> Is there anyway to not have gnome apps in KDE? Does anyone know if there's a script, or setting available to not show them?
[08:23] <Dextorion> lillux i guess you will have to mount your ubuntu 9.04 partition first.
[08:23] <jcmarini> J-; yes
[08:23] <lillux> omg... i a newbie  :( how can i do it/
[08:23] <nightvisio> hello

[08:25] <nras> DasEi1: tnx
[08:25] <Dextorion> lillux, i dont think i ever used a live cd, im afraid i cant help you with that. Perhaps ActionParsnip or dutchbuntu can help you to edit menu.lst from the livecd.
[08:25] <jcmarini> ok

[08:25] <westmi> reinstall drivers:

[08:26] <nightvisio> westmi, but I have just installed them
[08:26] <nitheesh> try to reburn the cd
[08:26] <ActionParsnip> Dextorion: oic
[08:26] <Dextorion> ActionParsnip, hes booted with the live cd. He has to mount his harddrive partition, right?
[08:26] <ActionParsnip> lillux: you can run: sudo fdisk -l   from the live cd
[08:27] <lillux> thomthom the link doesnt work for me :( im on a live cd
[08:27] <Dextorion> ActionParsnip, i never really worked with those live cds myself.
[08:27] <ActionParsnip> lillux: you can then mount the internal partitions
[08:27] <ActionParsnip> Dextorion: its exactly the same as an installed system, just running in ram
[08:27] <westmi> google it
[08:27] <Dextorion> ActionParsnip, alright cool.
[08:28] <ActionParsnip> lillux: you can mount your partitions to folders then you can simply edit the files as you wish
[08:28] <lillux> http://paste.ubuntu.com/256169/
[08:28] <westmi> my solution for most problems, i've got nvdia also, and never have a problem with it-what are you doing?

[08:39] <lillux> mmm yes
[08:39] <lillux> i think so
[08:39] <lillux> ;)
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> lillux: does that partition contain what you need
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> lillux: nautilus /media/sda1 &
[08:40] <lillux> [1] 16054
[08:40] <lillux>  and then its open a folder
[08:41] <lillux> media with sda1 and sda3
[08:41] <lillux> sda1 is my ubuntu 9.04
[08:41] <ActionParsnip> lillux: yes, you can observe the data on the partition now
[08:41] <lillux> mmmmmmm if i click on sda3... its empty!
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> lillux: thats because the mounts are filing arent they
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> lillux: think about it
[08:42] <lillux> anyway, sda1 is where my precious data are stored :)
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> lillux: but is it the partition you want to manipulate?
[08:43] <lillux> i just want to start my ubuntu .... open my laptop, then grub, choose ubuntu 9.04 ...thats it
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> !grub | lillux
[08:44] <coreyman> How can I auto login kde gui?
[08:44] <Dextorion> lillux, look in your media sda1 directory. do you have a boot directory in there now?
[08:44] <Dextorion> ActionParsnip thanks action!
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> Dextorion: ?
[08:45] <Dextorion> ActionParsnip for helping :)
[08:45] <lillux> yes, ihave a boot directory
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> lillux: thats ok then, follow the guide to reinstall grub and you'll be ok
[08:46] <ActionParsnip> lillux: or you can modify the boot folder appropriately yourself (not advised for your level)
[08:46] <ActionParsnip> Dextorion: np man
[08:46] <LavaEagle> When i try to install Startup manager I get: Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: python-support (>= 0.90.0)
[08:47] <lillux> the second one.. .try to modify the boot folder
[08:47] <ActionParsnip> lillux: your call dude
[08:47] <dutchbuntu> LavaEagle: how are you trying to install it?
[08:47] <lillux> :D
[08:47] <dutchbuntu> LavaEagle: try synaptic
[08:48] <LavaEagle> yes I am, and I will try that right now
[08:48] <syntax> how do i get the audocity mp3 player to play louder on ubuntu cause it sounds low and my vol is all the way up..my movie player plays louder
[08:49] <ActionParsnip> syntax: is there a volume control for the app within the app?
[08:49] <syntax> yea thats all the way up to
[08:49] <LavaEagle> @Dutchubuntu !beer
[08:50] <thomthom> !beer
[08:50] <dutchbuntu> LavaEagle: cheers!
[08:52] <westmi> syntax, i just got a pair of self-powered speakers
[08:52] <tazmania> my ubuntu is up and running now :)
[08:52] <syntax> west thats tight
[08:53] <syntax> tazmania how is it working out for you
[08:53] <tazmania> syntax: need some time to play around.  I have been used to the Fedora
[08:54] <ActionParsnip> tazmania: wtg
[08:54] <westmi> then plug a pair og heaphones in, and you will never have a problem hearing again
[08:54] <livingdaylight> did this morning's update fix a whole bunch of stuff?
[08:54] <syntax> taz i think you will like ubuntu
[08:54] <ManDay> Hello, I've got a problem with my mouse. First, it's way too sensitive, even with sensitivity turned all the way down. Second, I need a different sens. for my touchpad and any plugged in mouse - is the latter possible?
[08:54] <Kartagis> !info xev
[08:54] <ActionParsnip> livingdaylight: i'd imagine so
[08:55] <Kartagis> !info xorg-utilities
[08:55] <livingdaylight> ActionParsnip: today was a major update, no?
[08:55] <ActionParsnip> livingdaylight: not sure, my systems are all off and in boxes
[08:55] <Kartagis> does xev exist in ubuntu?
[08:55] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: sure does
[08:55] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: when did you last update?
[08:55] <Kartagis> ActionParsnip, what package?
[08:55] <livingdaylight> I don't know about anyone else but i kept getting usplash crash reports everytime i booted up... recent update seems to have fiexed that
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> !find xev
[08:56] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: and which version are you on?
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: not sure tbh
[08:56] <livingdaylight> dutchbuntu: 9.04
[08:56] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: and you previous update was when?
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: comes with nearly all linux distros so i never thought about it
[08:56] <kemas> hello, i am from indonesia
[08:56] <kemas> i love ubuntu
[08:57] <dutchbuntu> kemas: ubuntu loves you too
[08:57] <livingdaylight> dutchbuntu: why?
[08:57] <Myrtti> kemas: hello and welcome. Did you have a ubuntu support question?
[08:57] <syntax> :) @ ubuntu
[08:57] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: to figure out which updates you received this morning
[08:57] <livingdaylight> dutchbuntu: i received kernel update i tell you
[08:57] <kemas> Myrtti: no thank you. i'd just like to say hi to you all
[08:58] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: okay, i missed that
[08:58] <ActionParsnip> dutchbuntu: could check the age of the files in the apt-cache ;)
[08:58] <thomthom> !omg pink ponies
[08:58] <tazmania> Thanks folks for helping me out in setting up my first ubuntu ...
[08:58] <livingdaylight> kemas: you are what you are because of what i am - i am very sorry for you :p
[08:58] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: that was a major update, yes
[08:58] <oguncak> hi friends. i just installed pidgin 2.6.1 and wors perfect. but does anyone know how to enable video and voice chat function on gtalk?
[08:58] <Myrtti> kemas: :-) If you want to chat, please join #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat, this channel is for Ubuntu support
[08:58] <westmi> is command line a language, or is it a bunch of commands to be learned or memorized?
[08:58] <livingdaylight> dutchbuntu: very necessary, because ubuntu was bork before then....
[08:58] <kemas> ok sorry guys.
[08:58] <kemas> i am off now
[08:58] <Myrtti> kemas: no probs
[08:59] <kemas> quit
[08:59] <ActionParsnip> westmi: just know what you need to know. you'll never know tem all as there are millions
[08:59] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: not on my machines, but im glad it works ffor you
[08:59] <westmi> thanks
[08:59] <ActionParsnip> westmi: plus there are all the options on each command
[08:59] <livingdaylight> dutchbuntu: i'm glad they fixed it becausae i was about to ditch this os
[09:00] <livingdaylight> dutchbuntu: i like having the latest, but also need a bit of stability, eh!?
[09:00] <nmvictor> hi, some issue here. USB device is not available guest OS in virtual box even after i have activated USB in the settings.anyone know what im supposed to do?
[09:00] <ActionParsnip> nmvictor: i'd ask in #vbo
[09:00] <ActionParsnip> #vbox
[09:00] <dutchbuntu> livingdaylight: ;)
[09:01] <westmi> ActionParsnip,  what is the place to learn all this?
[09:01] <Myrtti> nmvictor: do you have OSE version or the one downloaded from Sun?
[09:01] <ActionParsnip> westmi: right where you are sat, use the command line and research commands when you need them
[09:01] <Dayofswords> there is also linux commands in book you can get at the library
[09:02] <Dayofswords> 500 pages of cammands and their options...
[09:02] <westmi> cool,thanx
[09:03] <ActionParsnip> Dayofswords: it will have the main commands but some more obscure ones it will be missing
[09:03] <ActionParsnip> Dayofswords: you'll probably find most of it is ffmpeg and mencoder
[09:03] <nmvictor> Myrtti: i just downloaded it from http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/3.0.4/virtualbox-3.0_3.0.4-50677_Ubuntu_intrepid_i386.deb and its version 3.0. So i cant tell which server it really it belongs with.
[09:03] <apparle> why do I gt this while bootiing [   18.268980] agpgart-ati 0000:00:00.0: unsupported Ati chipset [1002/5a33])
[09:04] <ActionParsnip> he who reads man mencoder is a lost soul
[09:04] <Myrtti> nmvictor: ok, so it is the sun version, I'd assume.
[09:04] <ajushi> Hi, I'm using and trying to do a "apt-get install subversion" but I'm getting errors: http://pastebin.com/de45a959 how do I fix it?
[09:04] <nmvictor> Myrtti: so??
[09:04] <ActionParsnip> ajushi: sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install subversion
[09:05] <alankila> ajushi: rm that broken libneon27-gnutls file
[09:05] <ajushi> alankila: how?
[09:05] <alankila> apt-get clean can do that as well, I guess.
[09:05] <alankila> rm $the_file ;-)
[09:05] <Myrtti> nmvictor: so it should work. people in #vbox or similar might be able to help too
[09:05] <ajushi> ActionParsnip: i'll try it
[09:05] <ajushi> ok thanks :)
[09:05] <alankila> that libsvn1 is probably also broken.
[09:06] <nmvictor> Myrtti: posted over their, no one is helping.
[09:06] <DasEi1> nmvictor: you also can add the repo for vbox, so getting the updates
[09:06] <lb> how may i identify my grafics card ?
[09:06] <ActionParsnip> lb: sudo lshw -C display
[09:06] <DasEi1> lb : lspci or hwinfo, then filter with grep
[09:06] <nmvictor> DasEi1: no idea on how to do that, any help?
[09:07] <DasEi1> nmvictor: jaunty ?
[09:07] <lb> thank ou
[09:07] <nmvictor> DasEi1: intrepid
[09:07] <ajushi> i'm still getting the same errors :/ I guess the packages are corrupted in the repo?
[09:08] <ActionParsnip> nmvictor: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
[09:08] <ActionParsnip> nmvictor: scroll past the files and read
[09:08] <nmvictor> ActionParsnip: thanks
[09:08] <ActionParsnip> nmvictor: there is a repo for your release there, you will then need to follow the remainder of the guide to add gpg keys etc
[09:08] <ajushi> I'm getting these errors now: http://pastebin.com/d725817a
[09:09] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: try what it says on line 2
[09:09] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: 'sudo apt-get install -f'
[09:09] <Sky[x]> its safe to connect on server with SSH from some open wireless ? or i have to enable some better encryption ?
[09:09] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: without the quotes ;)
[09:09] <nmvictor> how would one install lamp using the taskel command?
[09:09] <DasEi1> nmvictor: http://reformedmusings.wordpress.com/2008/12/10/setting-up-sun-virtualbox-6-under-ubuntu-810-intrepid/
[09:10] <ajushi> dutchbuntu: i did it and it goes on installing the libs again but I'm still getting the errors: http://pastebin.com/de45a959
[09:10] <Carllos> hi
[09:10] <nmvictor> DasEi1: thanks alot, i'll get back in case im stuck again
[09:10] <ManDay> Hello, I've got a problem with my mouse. First, it's way too sensitive, even with sensitivity turned all the way down. Second, I need a different sens. for my touchpad and any plugged in mouse - is the latter possible?
[09:11] <DasEi1> Sky[x]: quite save
[09:11] <Q-FUNK> howdy!
[09:12] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install -f; sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get upgrade
[09:12] <Q-FUNK> I've been trying to figure out which package provides /etc/profile - would anyone know?  it's not reported by dpkg -S
[09:12] <apparle> My sytem is behaving oddly..sometimes it starts up all graphic effects and sometimes it doesn't........same behaviour in vista
[09:13] <dutchbuntu> Manday: i don't think the latter is possible
[09:13] <westmi> apparle, maybe a hardware problem................
[09:13] <ManDay> dutchbuntu, there was something im hal, wasnt there?
[09:14] <ajushi> dutchubuntu: i'm still getting errors argh..do you guys think i should change country repositories?
[09:14] <apparle> westmi: but sometimes its fine and sometimes its not........and since winXP has no graphic effects...it runs smooth
[09:14] <oguncak> does anynone know how to enable voice and video chat on pidgin 2.6.1????????
[09:14] <nmvictor> anyone know how i would install lamp using the taskel command?
[09:14] <dutchbuntu> ManDay: I dunno, sorry
[09:14] <westmi> might have connection problems
[09:14] <ajushi> or should i install the libs manually via dpkg?
[09:14] <ManDay> Ok thanks.
[09:14] <apparle> does ubuntu support agpgart-ati module by default?
[09:15] <westmi> see? no grphics=no problem
[09:15] <DasEi1> apparle: could be hardware (heat ?) ; check /var/log/syslog in the cases it fails, also messages and look through dmesg.txt after doing dmesg > dmesg.txt in trml
[09:16] <ActionParsnip> apparle: i believe it an xorg.conf option
[09:16] <DasEi1> apparle: the distros since hardy lack ati - support
[09:16] <westmi> apparle, make sure your connections are clean and tight
[09:17] <coreyman> anyone suggest a vnc server/client ?
[09:17] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: which country are you on now?
[09:17] <apparle> westmi: I have an integrated graphic card......hence no question of connections
[09:17] <Achmed> tightvncviewer /tightvncserver
[09:17] <ajushi> dutchubuntu: Philippines (ph)
[09:17] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: none, im sure there is something more graceful
[09:17] <apparle> ActionParsnip: you mean the agpgart-ati option?
[09:17] <coreyman> achmed i tried it and i get connection refused from my client to my server
[09:17] <Achmed> coreyman: tightvncviewer /tightvncserver. But I'd suggest FreeNX/NX
[09:17] <ActionParsnip> apparle: possibly, see if it exists in wbsearches
[09:18] <jerrcs> hi there. I'm getting errors like this "Aug 20 03:11:44 hades kernel: [879071.847344] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Result: hostbyte=DID_BAD_TARGET driverbyte=DRIVER_OK,SUGGEST_OK" .. any clue what could be wrong with the drive?
[09:18] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: why do you need vnc, what are you wanting to achieve?
[09:18] <Achmed> coreyman: try looking up freenx on google
[09:18] <Achmed> ActionParsnip, it's probably some kind of remote box
[09:18] <apparle> ActionParsnip: I get this in syslog [   18.268980] agpgart-ati 0000:00:00.0: unsupported Ati chipset [1002/5a33])
[09:18] <ActionParsnip> Achmed: true but there are far better solutions to many situations than vnc
[09:18] <westmi> apparle, it still sounds like some kind of hardware problem,overheating, or many different things when was the last time you dusted?
[09:18] <coreyman> achmed already on it
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: what are you using the vnc to achieve?
[09:19] <Achmed> ActionParsnip, which is why freenx was invented :)
[09:19] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: try another country, just to be sure
[09:19] <ManDay> dutchbuntu, there was something im hal, wasnt there?
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> Achmed: often the whole desktop isnt needed, or a web interface exists which is much slicker
[09:19] <ajushi> dutchubuntu: how do i change country repos?
[09:19] <apparle> westmi: never dusted........does dusting help???...........and yes my computer is on for 15hrs or more in 24hrs
[09:19] <westmi> apparle, ati graphics do not play nice with ubuntu
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> westmi: mid range ones do, bleeding edge dont
[09:20] <westmi> nvdia is much better
[09:20] <apparle> westmi: but I get the same problem in vista also
[09:20] <Achmed> VISTA FAILS. period.
[09:20] <dutchbuntu> ajushi: System -> Administration -> Software Sources
[09:20] <qwyeth> My gnome theme manager is broken in 9.04... After clicking Install Theme I get a message saying the theme is installed, and the files do get copied to ~/.theme, but it's not actually added to my theme list.
[09:20] <merma> Achmed, actulla, Vista FAILED
[09:21] <coreyman> actionparsnip having my server machine in a remote location on my lan with no monitor, keyboard, or mouse
[09:21] <apparle> can it be any option in BIOS
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: thats fine, but why do you need the entire desktop? what are you doing on it that requires the whole desktop to be seen?>
[09:21] <westmi> apparle, my opinion=graphics
[09:21] <Achmed> merma, windows 7 is the new vista btw :D
[09:21] <Achmed> merma, it's starting to bsod on ppl
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> !ot | Achmed
[09:21] <Achmed> :)
[09:22] <westmi> apparle, YES dusating is good-
[09:22] <apparle> westmi: but what in graphics??............
[09:22] <westmi> dusting=cooler pc
[09:22] <merma> Achmed: probably due to video card drivers
[09:22] <coreyman> actionparsnip you suggesting ssh?
[09:23] <Achmed> coreyman, ssh is simpler than using a desktop and dealing with issues that arise with the remote desktop
[09:23] <jerrcs> can anyone help me with this error? "Aug 20 03:11:44 hades kernel: [879071.847344] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Result: hostbyte=DID_BAD_TARGET driverbyte=DRIVER_OK,SUGGEST_OK"
[09:23] <apparle> westmi: I'll do it first thing.........and yes after restarts graphics starts....and once started its fine but again stops after restart.....behaving randomly in both vista and linux
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: no, i want to know what you are achieving with vnc, there is most likely a more sophisticated way which will be faster
[09:23] <sts> hello folks. whats the current stable release of ubuntu?
[09:23] <coreyman> actionparsnip and that would probably be ssh, figured vnc would have less install set/up time and i could do ssh later
[09:23] <dutchbuntu> sts: 9.04
[09:24] <Kittykis> sfs: 9.04 jaunty
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: no way, sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[09:24] <Kittykis> insert a slash or quotation marks as you prefer
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: job done
[09:24] <Achmed> sts, they're right. 9.04. you could just as easy check ubuntu.com
[09:24] <westmi> apparle, i've heard of lots of problems with ati graphics, i have nvdia, and never had any problems-check the ubuntu forum-
[09:24] <rashed2020> Anyone have that site that automates layout.xml?
[09:24] <coreyman> actionparsnip kk thx
[09:24]  * Kittykis licks Achmed?
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: x forwarding is also enabled by default so you can run x based apps on the system and the display will be shown on the client system
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: if its windows based you will need to install and run xming
[09:25] <apparle> westmi: I use open source drivers.......and well windows has the ATI drivers.......then what's the problem......in them and that also the same problem
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: but again it depends what you are wanting to achieve, if you just want to connect to run updates then a whole desktop is way OTT and ssh will do very nicely
[09:25] <coreyman> actionparsnip k well im goin to bed ill get on that tomorow
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: but you wont say why you need a full desktop so I can but guess
[09:25] <Kittykis> vnc is irritatingly slow as i recall
[09:26] <coreyman> actionparsnip i dont really know im just playing around
[09:26] <westmi> apparle, i would do the dusting,cleaning-you would be suprised at the amount that can accumulate
[09:26] <Achmed> FreeNX is honestly faster and more reliable.
[09:26] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: if you want to manage samba shares you can easily modify smb.conf and restart samba to add / remove shares
[09:26] <Kittykis> stick with ssh for now, simpler
[09:26] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: in most cases vnc is very overkill and apps now have web interfaces or flat out better ways of doing things
[09:26] <apparle> westmi:  that's 1st priority now......thanks for the tip.........
[09:26] <nmvictor> everytime i insert a flash disk, memory card or eject a CD,nautilus shuts down for a while,(i.e every nautilus window close and the desktop icons disappear ).is this normal?
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> coreyman: plus vnc is unencrypted so using it over www without an ssh tunnel is foolhardy
[09:27] <westmi> apparle, do the dusting,cleaning-that's probibly the problem, if it is a recent one
[09:27] <Achmed> ActionParsnip, i don't think he's here anymore.
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> he only missed the last bit so its all gravy
[09:27] <Achmed> yeah that works
[09:28] <Polarina> Is there a simple way to install either denemo 0.8.6 or 0.8.8?
[09:28] <apparle> westmi: last 6 months.......but I was using KDE4 so I thought the problem was due to its stability but I recentl y installed vista and found this
[09:28] <lb> got another question :) i've tried to reconfigure my xorg.conf ->  "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" as said in the wiki. but i wasnet asked about my grafics driver. just about kernel-frambuffer + keyboard. how may i configure the grafics card then ?
[09:29] <ActionParsnip> apparle: you wonder why users are crying out for a kde 3.5 for jaunty etc
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> !info denemo
[09:30] <westmi> apparle, well like i said, i've heard of all sorts of problems with ati........i dont have any links available to me, but search the ubuntu forums and you'll find em.....
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> Polarina: you will need a repo for the newer version as the official repo has 0.7.7
[09:31] <apparle> ActionParsnip: no.........not at all because KDE4 is cool......did you check KDE4.3......its quite stable and also awesome
[09:31] <alankila> It's good that the radeonhd or other drivers work at least halfway because the fglrx just plainly never does these days. Last time it worked for me must have been like 6 months ago. ATI sucks, AMD involvement or not... :-/
[09:31] <eueu> Hello! I would please like to know which command could tell me the encoding of a file?
[09:31] <ActionParsnip> apparle: i use lxde now, much faster and very stable
[09:31] <ActionParsnip> eueu: file <filename>
[09:31] <alankila> eueu: "file" tries to guess it I think, but it's of course not possible to reliably determine this.
[09:32] <alankila> in every case, anyway
[09:32] <eueu> yes I know
[09:33] <eueu> I just would like to know which files are stored in a latin1-incompatible way
[09:33] <ActionParsnip> Polarina: https://launchpad.net/~agutarra/+archive/ppa
[09:33] <alankila> none, because any file can be interpreted as containing latin1 encoding without actual error.
[09:34] <iwobbles> Hi ppl, Im having issues with firefox, lost all the buttons on some sites like Lycos and cant send emails anymore, Ive googled it but cant find any answers
[09:34] <alankila> it's actually possible to determine if a file is valid UTF-8 because of the specific canonicalized representation of valid UTF-8, but that's an exception.
[09:34] <ManDay> Guys, when I mute my speakers they start cra
[09:34] <ManDay> ckling
[09:35] <Gnea> ManDay: make sure they're plugged in all the way
[09:35] <ManDay> Guys, when I mute my speakers they start crackling. Any idea what's this? It also happens when I turn the volume down to 0.
[09:35] <ManDay> Gnea, it's a laptop...
[09:35] <dutchbuntu> ManDay: is that an Ubuntu issue?
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> ManDay: if you slide the sliders round does it changethe volume of the noise?
[09:35] <ManDay> Yes, it is
[09:35] <ManDay> ActionParsnip, it's still a laptop
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> ManDay: i know, with the mute on, youo can still slide the volume sliders
[09:35] <Gnea> ManDay: the internal speakers still have a wire that connects to the motherboard.
[09:35] <alankila> ManDay: so is it almost silent if you leave just a bit of volume, but begins to make some noise when you put it all the way down?
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> mndyou can do that on any laptop or desktop
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> ManDay: ^
[09:36] <alankila> and does the noise stop if you stop the sound source?
[09:36] <ManDay> Yes,
[09:36] <ManDay> at
[09:36] <ManDay> alankila,
[09:36] <ManDay> sorry man this keyboard is so tiny
[09:36] <ManDay> ill try
[09:36] <Gnea> ManDay: are you using pulseaudio?
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> ManDay: if you pull the sliders down with it muted does the noise stop? this will work on a laptop
[09:37] <asfjio> hello, can someone tell me what spellchecking application is using evolution to correct mistakes while writing an email? because in spell checking section in the preferences i have languages that if they are checked or not there is no difference. only english words are checked.
[09:37] <ManDay> alankila, the noise stops when I stop the sound source. Yes, I think this must be pulse, ActionParsnip it happens at both ocassions: Muted AND/OR turned down
[09:38] <ActionParsnip> ManDay: ok, have you tried switching to ALSA?
[09:38] <ManDay> alankila, so this means the noice is actually coming from ubuntu...
[09:38] <ActionParsnip> !sound | ManDay
[09:38] <ManDay> hm, im actually not even sure what im using. how can i quickly find out?
[09:38] <alankila> well, I guess this at least sounds like a bug in the way the dac is being driven... It would be in ALSA in that case, and only affect the volume level 0.
[09:38] <ManDay> ah
[09:39] <g_giulio> hi
[09:39] <dutchbuntu> asfjio: I guess apsell
[09:39] <alankila> or it might be more subtle and actually distort all audio but is only become really apparent at specific volume settings like 0.
[09:39] <dutchbuntu> asfjio: aspell
[09:39] <aaron11> helo
[09:39] <asfjio> dutchbuntu: how can i see what language packs i have?
[09:39] <ykphuah> transmission download more than one file when I ask it to download just a single file from the torrent, anyone else have this problem? or suggest me another good bt client. :)
[09:40] <apparle> westmi: right now all the effects are off but I still get 140fps in glxgears
[09:40] <ManDay> so, ive changed my devices to alsa all the way, do i have to restart or anything?
[09:40] <g_giulio> ykphuah: i use ktorrent and it goes faster...
[09:40] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: check your settings, mine asks which files. If i use my G1 phone it downloads all
[09:40] <asfjio> dutchbuntu: in synaptic i searched for aspell and aspell-my_language is selected as green to the left. do this mean that it is installed?
[09:41] <ActionParsnip> g_giulio: you'll need a tonne of qtlibs extra for that
[09:41] <ykphuah> ActionParsnip: when I select to download only foo3, it will donwload foo3 in total and partial of foo2 and foo4
[09:41] <ykphuah> ActionParsnip: and I have to go there and remove foo2 and foo4
[09:41] <ManDay> ActionParsnip, alankila , I've changed to ALSA and restarted my audio program - still the same.  :P
[09:42] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: you could try: cd ~/; ls -a
[09:42] <dutchbuntu> asfjio: yes
[09:42] <g_giulio> ActionParsnip: sorry i've not understand...
[09:42] <g_giulio> ok, sorry... kde...
[09:42] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: if there is a .transmission folder, rename it after killing transmission
[09:42] <dragonrigs> .
[09:42] <g_giulio> framework...
[09:42] <g_giulio> ok,sorry...
[09:43] <ykphuah> ActionParsnip: you guessing its configuration problem?
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> g_giulio: yes, ktorrent relis on qt which is not part of an ubuntu default install
[09:43] <dutchbuntu> asfjio: make sure 'aspell' is checked, as well as 'aspell-<language_code>' for each language you want to check
[09:43] <alankila> ManDay: yes, I do believe that your sound card driver has a bug of some kind. It would be worth googling for this issue, there can be a workaround like adjusting other mixer controls but the volume, perhaps the PCM control.
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: could be, we only rename so we can easily rename back. let your current downloads finish
[09:43] <westmi> apparle, got any idea what glxgears is?
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: or you may lose the data you have pulled down
[09:43] <ykphuah> ActionParsnip: I have changed my download path to somewhere else though.
[09:43] <ManDay> alankila, okay
[09:44] <apparle> westmi: nope...can you tell
[09:44] <alankila> ManDay: what card is it, anyway?
[09:44] <mattdh01> g_giulio do you think
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: the config uration will still be stored in the same place no matter where you set the download path
[09:44] <Ingrater> has someone in here experience with a usb boot cd? (help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB)
[09:44] <g_giulio> mattdh01:about?
[09:44] <ykphuah> ActionParsnip: alright I will try that.
[09:44] <oztrout> hello
[09:45] <cjs> What's the cannonical way to enable and disable servers in Ubuntu? By "disable" I mean, "won't start again at next reboot."?
[09:45] <westmi> sounds like some kind of driver issue...see http://www.xfree86.org/4.4.0/glxinfo.1.html
[09:45] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: on the blank config you can set your download location as you have now and hopefully it will allow you to select individual files
[09:45] <alankila> cjs: there is a runlevel editor, see Administration/Services
[09:45] <ActionParsnip> ykphuah: you could also scour the settings to see if your settings are telling the client to download 100% of all torrents
[09:45] <westmi> apparle, see http://www.xfree86.org/4.4.0/glxinfo.1.html

[09:46] <mohanad_> Hi
[09:46] <cjs> Can someone give me some clues as to how to find the name of whatever does this?
[09:46] <Kartagis> I've bound F12 to lock screen, but it doesn't work. any ideas? actually, mo matter what key I bind to lock screen, it doesn't work
[09:47] <illikawn> cjs try renaming /etc/rc.X/SserviceXX to KserviceXX rc.X being the initlevel and service XX the difference from 100
[09:47] <cjs> Ouch. I was hoping to avoid manually running through and, e.g., deleting all the links.
[09:47] <jamiewan> can someone advise me of best compatible printer for jaunty? is HP the best option
[09:47] <cjs> (At every rc level that has the darn thing.)
[09:47] <majuk> rags: what happens when you invoke phpinfo or similar generic php
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> jamiewan: there is no best, hp are very compatible though
[09:47] <illikawn> cjs read /etc/rc3.d/README
[09:48] <alankila> ManDay: ok. I can easily find complaints that there's some kind of noise coming from headphone output. Perhaps this guy has headphones muted and is experiencing your issue.
[09:48] <rags> majuk: it asks to downlod the file
[09:48] <ActionParsnip> jamiewan: http://hplipopensource.com/
[09:48] <jamiewan> ActionParsnip: thanx mate
[09:48] <ActionParsnip> jamiewan: see what is compatible there
[09:48] <rags> majuk: libapache2-mod-php5 is also installed
[09:48] <majuk> rags: Hmmm... have you restarted Apache since you installed PHP
[09:48] <cjs> Ok, so Ubuntu doesn't have the tool. I'll just install and use the Red Hat package.
[09:49] <westmi> apparle,  opps sorry, try this   http://www.xfree86.org/4.4.0/glxgears.1.html
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> hp printer + nvidia gfx + atheros wifi + realtek soundcard = winner
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> !alien | cjs
[09:49] <cjs> If I can remember what it was called, so I can install it. "chkcfg"?
[09:49] <rags> majuk: I insatalled everything in one swoop tht is aptitude apache2,php, etc....also I'm running Hardy
[09:49] <illikawn> cjs i dont know if ubuntu has the tools, its based on debian so maybe not
[09:49] <ykphuah> cjs: man update-rc.d
[09:49] <Ingrater> Hi, can some in here help me with a usb boot cd?
[09:49] <cjs> There's an ubuntu package of the red hat tool. I've used it. But I can't remember the freaking name.
[09:50] <ykphuah> cjs: the redhat tool is chkconfig
[09:50] <illikawn> svcadm type program right?
[09:50] <majuk> rags: Well, you may still have to manually enable PHP for apache in a config. I'm honestly not sure, I come from Gentoo where you have to do EVERYTHING by hand.
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> Ingrater: i use this: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-ubuntu-904-persistent-install-windows/
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> Ingrater: use a windows pc to make a usb boot device
[09:50] <nitheesh> i want to dump my svn repo from websvn server to ssh server
[09:50] <nitheesh> ?
[09:51] <nitheesh> any idea
[09:51] <westmi> apparle, try google that problem
[09:51] <omacblah> I hosed my system by stopping some core services.
[09:51] <nitheesh> ?
[09:51] <rags> majuk: I thought aptitude should take care of everything....so..how should I  got abt tht?
[09:51] <commander_> is there a way i can use my blackberry on here?
[09:51] <cjs> ykphuah: Yeah, I've played a bit with update-rc.d, and it's quite mysterious, not only not seeming to do anything, but also producing wonderful output such as:
[09:51] <nitheesh> any idea about that
[09:51] <cjs> Use of uninitialized value $ARGV[1] in pattern match (m//) at /usr/sbin/update-rc.d line 215.
[09:51] <cjs> But thanks for the chkconfig hint.
[09:51] <alankila> Good old Perl
[09:51] <nitheesh> i have tried with svndump and svn load
[09:51] <nitheesh> but i wont work
[09:52] <Ingrater> the problem is that the pc which it should run on can not boot from usb fothermore it does not detect usb drives in bios. So i have to rely on the linux kernel to detect the usb drives and mount it. I found a description how to do so: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB
[09:52] <illikawn> err chkconfig not svcadm oka
[09:52] <nitheesh> can i get help on
[09:52] <ActionParsnip> Ingrater: you can boot to a floppy with grub on it to then kick up the usb
[09:52] <nitheesh> this
[09:52] <majuk> rags: I don't know off the top of my head, I'm sure it's covered in the Apache docs. And as thorough as aptitude is, I'm willing to bet they would not enable PHP for you because of the inherent security risks it presents.
[09:52] <nitheesh> hello
[09:52] <omacblah> everything boots up to the gdm login screen but I can't type at the keyboard or mouse.  Any tricks I could do to add a command somewhere to just get keyboard and mouse back up....they're both usb.
[09:52] <rags> cjs:try sysv-rc-conf
[09:53] <Ingrater> unfortunaltely it fails mounting the root/ directory. Then the bus-box pops up. If i mount the root directory manually and return the system boots correctly
[09:53] <majuk> nitheesh: Someone will help if they think they can. Be patient.
[09:53] <nitheesh> ok
[09:53] <rags> majuk: k..thx..actually many online texts just mention a simple aptitude install
[09:54] <omacblah> luckily I have usb flash disk with ubuntu jaunty on it.  I can edit the hard drive startup scripts but everything I've tried doesn't do anything to make the usb mouse and keyboard work.
[09:54] <Ingrater> grub can only boot usb-drives which are predetected by bios. But the pc is so old it does not do this. So I need the linux kernel to first load the usb drivers and then boot from it.
[09:54] <majuk> rags: ...ok, so don't check the configs, whatever.
[09:54] <nitheesh> hi
[09:55] <cjs> rags: I think I'm going to stick with chkconfig; it also gives me a listing of what's on and off. Not that I can check that into revision control the way I can with BSD's /etc/rc.conf file, but at least it's an easy-to-read list.
[09:55] <sharperguy> Ok how come the "at" command suddenly no longer does anything? That's twice it was supposed to wake me up and it didnt.
[09:56] <alankila> hm, it might be awesome to use my mobile phone's USB capabilities to turn it into a boot disk for PCs.
[09:56] <alankila> Since it can pretend to be USB storage I guess it will do the same for BIOS as well.
[09:56] <rags> cjs: ubuntu has problems with chkconfig...I faced a lot of problesm related to inserv..sysv-rc-conf is very simmilar
[09:56] <omacblah> at command is controlled by the atd demon...start it.
[09:57] <cjs> Really? I can believe it. How Linux ended up with sucky SysV startup scripts I have no idea.
[09:57] <omacblah> Linux tried to be everything compatible with Unix AT&T style.
[09:58] <omacblah> ubuntu and debian decided to try something new and go with a new infrastructure called upstart.  When exactly they made the move I don't know.
[09:58] <Leenux> i get error from my apache log
[09:59] <Leenux> /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2: undefined symbol: FT_Library_SetLcdFilter
[09:59] <rags> cjs: well ubuntu at least uses that...if u install chkconf it will mess with all your startup scripts and every package you try to install therafter will throw up insserv warnings...
[09:59] <NET||abuse> hey guys. anyone use banshee here? Looking for a good source of online radio stations for it, or a magnatune/ jamendo plugin like in rhythmbox?
[09:59] <Leenux> i try to search package libcairo.so.2, but nit found
[09:59] <cjs> rags: Oh, suck. Well, thanks for the warning.
[09:59] <Leenux> please help me to fix it
[10:00] <alankila> Leenux: contained in package libcairo2. Try apt-get --reinstall install libcairo2
[10:01] <cjs> rags: Ah, sysv-rc-conf is not the same as the sysvrc command.
[10:01] <jeeves_Moss> how can I set up a random number generator to make a random "wait time" to be put in @ the end of my script?
[10:01] <nitheesh>  Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using <IP_ADDRESS> for ServerName
[10:01] <nitheesh> any idea?
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> nitheesh: have you been messing around with your host name
[10:02] <nitheesh> so wat should i do
[10:02] <nitheesh> ?
[10:02] <bullgard4> Where in the file hierarchy does Ubuntu show a contingent Bluetooth device?
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> nitheesh: make sure the host name in /etc/hostname     is the one resolved to <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS> in /etc/hosts
[10:02] <omacblah> nitheesh: ignore this warning....it always pops up and even if you have https configured correctly.
[10:03] <cjs> Gah. Who actually uses run levels anyway, outside of single and multi-user?
[10:03] <Qu4R0w> any1 can tell me how to cennect to wireless with manual mac and manual ip?
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> Qu4R0w: network manager will do that, just click on IPv4 config and set your own IP address
[10:04] <Qu4R0w> or can i make .sh script?
[10:07] <jeeves_Moss> bullgard4, can you give me a hand with making a random wait time for the end of a script?
[10:07] <surma_> hej :)

[10:10] <ActionParsnip> jeeves_Moss: sup
[10:11] <sharperguy> Anone know why 'at' might have stopped working? I was using it to trigger mplayer to wake me up, but suddenly it just doesn't so anything when it's supposed to.

[10:18] <albertico> can anybody help, please http://pastebin.com/m7f38a489
[10:18] <jeeves_Moss> ActionParsnip, this is what I'm using http://pastebin.ca/1536102 and I need to insert an echo command in there to let me know what e-mail has been sent, and the random wait time
[10:18] <Steil> whoah wtf is this: "As our way of thanking you for your positive contributions to Slashdot, you are eligible to disable advertising."
[10:19] <ActionParsnip> albertico: sudo touch /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/postrm/update-ogre-plugins     is my guess
[10:19] <jeeves_Moss> ActionParsnip, did you get a sec to see that post?
[10:21] <albertico> ActionParsnip: it doesn exists
[10:21] <ActionParsnip> jeeves_Moss: then use the random number generation in the post i gave to wait a  random amount of time. You could ask for the command to send the email to return a value to see if it was sent
[10:22] <jeeves_Moss> ActionParsnip, how would I do that?  do I put the random wait in after ${email}?
[10:22] <fantomas> omacblah: how this related to KDE?
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> jeeves_Moss: try it, i code very basic scripts that do a lot of stuff, nothing like emailing though
[10:22] <jeeves_Moss> ActionParsnip, lol.  ok

[10:23] <gsedej> Hi! New to servers. Made ssh, it worked, installed torrentflux (mysql, apache2,...) and it doesent work. Now ssh desn't work (... port 22: Connection refused). I have router, but I forwarded right ports. What is the metter?
[10:24] <ActionParsnip> albertico: i know, thats why we use touch to create it to satisfy the uninstaller
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> albertico: or installer, whichever its not importnat
[10:26] <cjs> What init.d script starts the kvm guests?
[10:26] <omacblah> gsedej:  If you have ufw up and running, you might want to see if it is still blocking some ports that stop you from doing what you want.  I'm also quite certain your ports on the router aren't open for all your apps either.
