[03:41] <pvl1> QpSmiley, wow sorry, i didnt even know. i guess try running sudo jockey-text in a terminal
[03:41] <godzirra> Currently Ubuntu is requiring me to have a private key in my ssh setup to login.  How do I disable that so I can login with a username and password?
[03:41] <switchgirl> hi i have a esi-02n splitter and require info on how to safly connect it to the modem as i am using it as a temporary connector so umm left (ingres safe) or right (cpd safe) which is best for the modem?
[03:41] <jdsbluedevl> greezmunkey: nothing is coming out after the restart.  It's just the same from when I ran the tail script
[03:41] <QpSmiley> okay will try
[03:41] <uo3273-fvarklb> jrtayloriv: I wouldn't even bother with 10.04 LTS yet.  I would go back to the 9.10 installation - and let the bugs with 10.04 get worked out.  The Maverick installation is also coming out sooner than later.  Just my opinion ...
[03:42] <pvl1> godzirra, you dont need it. youll still use a usernam andpass. what ssh server did u install
[03:42] <blackscreen> is there ubuntu help in french?
[03:42] <prince_jammys> !fr | blackscreen
[03:42] <Appl6> blackscreen: I think it's #ubuntu-fr
[03:42] <godzirra> pvl1: pvl1 openssh-server
[03:42] <seanix> can't get audio to work in web browsers, even though sound works elsewhere. ideas?
[03:43] <uo3273-fvarklb> sebsebseb: do you know of another channel on which I could get more technical questions answered.  This channel seems to be more of just a mass of Linux users with a random slough of topics ...
[03:43] <pvl1> godzirra, yeah you dont need a private key. basically youll log in with a username and pass, but itll encrypt the data being sent using aprivate key that you can automatically accept with whatever ssh client you use. however there are options to actually require a specific key
[03:43] <godzirra> pvl1: When I try and login, it won't let me unless I use the private key.
[03:43] <Charbel> hi how can i install java ?
[03:44] <sebsebseb> uo3273-fvarklb: yeah sure try ##linux
[03:44] <hiexpo> !java
[03:44] <QpSmiley> pvl1, it said GTKWarning: couldn't open display
[03:45] <QpSmiley> then it said searching for drivers.... ||| then a new terminal line came up(an input line)
[03:45] <pvl1> godzirra, how is it asking, like whats the actually question
[03:45] <godzirra> pvl1: When I try and login I get this:  Permission denied (publickey).
[03:45] <godzirra> pvl1: Unless I specify the key with -i
[03:46] <pvl1> godzirra, did you set it up on your own
[03:46] <godzirra> pvl1: Its part of a cloud setup, so it set it up by itself more or less.
[03:46] <Goatee> does anyone know a shortcut I can use on the boot-up to go to the gdm/user-switcher?
[03:47] <prince_jammys> Goatee: you don't get the login screen upon booting?
[03:47] <pvl1> godzirra, ok can you access the system tho? it seems like you just need to edit ur config file
[03:47] <godzirra> Yes, I can access it fine.
[03:48] <godzirra> I just have to specify the private key file.
[03:48] <godzirra> And I don't wnt to have to do that.
[03:48] <prince_jammys> godzirra: what is the path to the file?
[03:48] <YAY4green> Hey can someone tell me what files they are using to watch today's latest videos on Lucid 10.04? I can't seem to read some DVDs even though I did install the "missing media files" Kubuntu 10.04 asks you after install. Thanks :)
[03:48] <godzirra> prince_jammys: Why does it matter?
[03:48] <prince_jammys> godzirra: guess.
[03:49] <Goatee> prince_jammys: no, I don't have it as a preference. but I need to get to it because I can't logout from the running session (Unity Netbook Edition has problem with my desktop-resolution and reloads everything)
[03:49] <pvl1> godzirra, the file to edit is /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[03:49] <acerimmer> YAY4green: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras
[03:50] <rshakin> hey ppl, i know this is not a ubuntu question, but is there a way to transfer emails out of gmail to a different email supplier ?
[03:50] <godzirra> pvl1: Ah, thanks.  I found it.  Its working now.  Appreciate it!
[03:50] <pvl1> godzirra, np, glad u got it solved
[03:50] <pvl1> rshakin, forward them?
[03:50] <YAY4green> ya I would like to know to about rshakin's question... I'm ditching gmail...
[03:50] <Goatee> prince_jammys: I know I can press alt on a Mac to choose from the startup disk and hoped I can do something similar with the login screen on ubuntu.
[03:51] <YAY4green> acerimmer thanks for answer :)
[03:51] <QpSmiley> pvl1: did you see my last message?
[03:51] <acerimmer> YAY4green: no prob
[03:51] <pvl1> QpSmiley, sorry i dont think so
[03:51] <rshakin> pvl1: no the mails already stored on their servers... i know if i just forward them i can do it any other way
[03:51] <rshakin> pvl1: there are about 2000 messages and forwarding them by hand is out of the question
[03:51] <QpSmiley> pvl1: it said GTKWarning: couldn't open display ||| then it said searching for drivers.... ||| then a new terminal line came up(an input line)
[03:52] <zulu> moin
[03:52] <ebovine> You can turn on POP3 or IMAP on gmail and use any mail backup program or just use any mail client.
[03:52] <pvl1> rshakin, well basically, you could download them all to an email app and try to back em up. i tnik evolution can o that
[03:52] <pvl1> QpSmiley, gimme aminute
[03:52] <ebovine> Evolution, Thunderbird, any of them really.
[03:53] <QpSmiley> pvl1: okay thank you very much :D
[03:53] <ebovine> Doing it that way should preserve any folder structure as well.
[03:53] <rshakin> pvl1: what about exporting them back up to another provider such as yahoo or something like that
[03:53] <Jordan_U> Goatee: You can hold shift during boot and choose recovery mode, but that will bring you to a recovery menu (where you can get to a terminal to fix things). It won't bring you to the GDM.
[03:53] <rgotten> how hard or easy is to use a webserver
[03:53] <ebovine> As far as getting them back up that will depend on where you're going.
[03:53] <juan_> anyone know how to mount an ipod touch to XP in virtualbox?
[03:53] <Jordan_U> rgotten: Depends, what do you want to use it for?
[03:53] <prince_jammys> rgotten: 5.7
[03:54] <pvl1> rshakin, in evolutioni think you might be able to do a copy and paste
[03:54] <Goatee> Jordan_U: hm... that sucks... I really need to change the session :/
[03:54] <rshakin> pvl1: ok thanks... i am going to do some more research
[03:55] <pvl1> rshakin, good luck on it
[03:55] <rgotten> Jordan_0: to place a website i am creating with webx2
[03:55] <pvl1> QpSmiley, run jockey-text --help, you might need to run it with -l or -c instead depending on ur situation
[03:55] <foolguy> how do I move the program bar from the bottom of the screen to the left side
[03:55] <prince_jammys> Goatee: sorry, Jordan_U seems to understand your problem. I don't.
[03:55] <ZykoticK9> what is the filename/path of the default sound file played after login?
[03:56] <rgotten> prince_jammys: 5.7?
[03:56] <QpSmiley> pvl1: thank you will try
[03:56] <isw> !usbboot
[03:56] <rtronk> what is ubuntu 10 codenamed?
[03:56] <isw> !usb
[03:56] <rtronk> like debian 5 is debian lenny, whats ubuntu 10?
[03:56] <ZykoticK9> rtronk, lucid for 10.04
[03:56] <pvl1> QpSmiley, no problem, sorry i couldnt be of more help, but i havent really used jockey
[03:56] <acerimmer> rtronk: lucid lynx
[03:56] <Charbel> !partner
[03:56] <ZachK_> rtronk: 10.04 Lucid Lynx
[03:56] <ZykoticK9> rtronk, maverick for 10.10
[03:57] <trism> ZykoticK9: /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/desktop-login.ogg although if you just want to disable the sound it is activated in System/Preferences/Startup Applications/Gnome login sound
[03:57] <Jordan_U> rgotten: What is wbx2?
[03:57] <ZykoticK9> trism, thank you!
[03:57] <zcf115> hello everyone.i am using lucid
[03:57] <ZachK_> zcf115: ok
[03:57] <juan_> anyone know how to mount an ipod touch to XP in virtualbox?
[03:57] <drizzt_> juan_, read help about usb devices
[03:58] <rtronk> is there a easy way i can take a pre-installed ubuntu 10 vps os install and update it to 10.10
[03:58] <bastid_raZor> juan_: probably need to ask in #vbox
[03:58] <zcf115> download a itue
[03:58] <juan_> drizzt_, do u have a link?
[03:58] <foolguy> how do I move the program bar from the bottom of the screen to the left side?
[03:58] <bubuzzz> hi, i pasted the line export GTK2_RC_FILES=/usr/share/themes/00-wasp/gtk-2.0/gtkrc ooffice into the local bashrc file
[03:58] <foolguy> this is really important because part of my screen doesn't work
[03:58] <zcf115> why?
[03:58] <rgotten> Jordan_U webx2 is a software that creates the website for microsoft or linux
[03:58] <Charbel> !multiverse
[03:58] <bubuzzz> but open office only appear with that theme when running on terminal
[03:58] <bastid_raZor> bubuzzz: try holding ALT and left click then drag
[03:58] <Shade37> Ive registered my nick, verified it, and it has been identified. However, im still "banned" from the #backtrack-linux channel. What's up with that?
[03:58] <ZachK_> foolguy: opposite click on the toolbar and choose options
[03:58] <ZykoticK9> trism, i'm planning on changing it for HAL saying "I am completly operational and all my circuts are functioning perfectly" :)
[03:58] <Jon--> Problem: Currently have a full drive with no unallocated space. Installed: Windows, Ubuntu. Boot with: GRUB. Want to: Safely take free-space from existing partitions, make room, install another Debian based OS (BackTrack). How can I do this safely/without modifying my current configuration (ie get space, install using existing boot-loader)
[03:59] <ZachK_> foolguy: from there you can choose were it is located
[03:59] <bastid_raZor> Shade37: banned means they don't want you there for something you've done.
[03:59] <trism> ZykoticK9: hehe, sounds great
[03:59] <bubuzzz> it cannot use the theme when i click on the main menu
[03:59] <bubuzzz> how can i solve it ?
[03:59] <Shade37> I havn't even been on irc before, what have i done to deserve banning before i even knew about it?
[04:00] <YAY4green> Anyone have some suggestions for Decrypting DVDs? I've downloaded Kubuntu 10.04's restricted-extras but am still unable to watch newer DVDs. Thanks :)
[04:00] <prince_jammys> Jon--: you may try repartitioning using something like gparted
[04:00] <ZachK_> Shade37: try changing your nick
[04:00] <xangua> YAY4green: you will need libdvdcss2 aviable in medibuntu
[04:00] <xangua> !Medibuntu > YAY4green
[04:00] <bookface> @seek shepard flawless
[04:00] <foolguy> zachK_: thanks for the help, I couldn't get to that because I had too many windows open, thanks
[04:00] <drizzt_> Watching Dvds in Linux is illegal
[04:01] <prince_jammys> false.
[04:01] <ZachK_> foolguy: did it work?
[04:01] <ebovine> There is a licensed decoder now for Linux.
[04:01] <drizzt_> licensed by whom?
[04:01] <rtronk> how do i install emerge?
[04:01] <bonhoffer> is there a way to ls for only files modified today?
[04:01] <tyrant> drizzt_, doesnt it depend on where you live
[04:01] <ebovine> I'm looking for who released that dvd player.
[04:02] <tyrant> canonical released it i think
[04:02] <hiexpo> !media | ebovine
[04:02] <Jon--> prince_jammys: I can do it safely with GParted? How do I tell installer to use existing GRUB/not orphan my existing OSs?
[04:02] <frankbro> Anyone know how to auto identify with xchat gnome, typing my password directly in the password or nickserv password isnt enought i guess
[04:03] <CaptainTrek> frankbro:  you tried just using xchat and not xchat-gnome?
[04:03] <ZachK_> frankbro: go to the options menu
[04:03] <tyrant> ebovine, i think it is powerdvd for linux
[04:03] <drizzt_> if it was legal, codecs would be included, not hidden in repository outside of USA legislation
[04:03] <Shy> Hi, I have a question. What exactly do I need to install xubuntu on a flash drive? Thought I'd ask here since no one over in #xubuntu responded...
[04:03] <hiexpo> frankbro,  /msg nickserv identify nic password
[04:03] <bastid_raZor> frankbro: /msg nickserv identify yourpassword
[04:03] <Docteh> Jon--: the grub portion of the text installer asks you where you want grub2 installed, i think picking nowhere is an option
[04:03] <xangua> Shy: have you tried with unetbootin¿¿
[04:04] <xangua> !usb > Shy
[04:04] <jrtayloriv> For some reason, I'm not having the "Session" dropdown appear in GDM anymore, so I can't boot into KDE. Is this supposed to be missing in 10.04?
[04:04] <prince_jammys> Jon--: there is always a risk (back up important data), but a gparted live cd is made for this task, yes.
[04:04] <seanix> in my web browsers, the audio doesn't work for streaming videos. how can i fix that?
[04:05] <Jon--> prince_jammys: I would need to use a livecd then? I cannot add a partition using free space from current install?
[04:05] <drizzt_> ok, it's illegal to watch DVD in linux if you live in USA or Japan and haven't paid for decoder. /discussion
[04:05] <juan_> anyone know how to mount an ipod touch to XP in virtualbox?
[04:05] <ZykoticK9> trism, thanks - works perfectly
[04:05] <Jon--> Docteh: It actually has a GUI installer similar to Ubuntu. Will it automatically notice the existing Grub, if not, and I don't install it, how do I have grub rescan for installed OSs? I am new to all of this.
[04:05] <hiexpo> !windows | juan_
[04:05] <prince_jammys> Jon--: you'll have to shrink an existing partition to make a new one for backtrack. you can perhaps do it on an unmounted partition without live cd.
[04:05] <prince_jammys> !gparted | Jon--
[04:05] <xangua> juan_: are you using the vbox incluided in the repository¿¿
[04:06] <merma> anybody knows how to remove that pixel border around windows?
[04:06] <bricky> hey
[04:06] <prince_jammys> Jon--: since there is always a risk, make sure to back up things you'd hate to lose.
[04:06] <hiexpo> bricky, ////
[04:06] <bricky> hiexpo :D
[04:07] <drizzt_> Jon--, you will need to launch update-grub on target system
[04:07] <elizandro> hi
[04:07] <elizandro> hello
[04:07] <elizandro> I'm brazilian
[04:07] <hiexpo> !hi | elizandro
[04:07] <prince_jammys> Jon--: actually, i think gparted comes with the Ubuntu live CD, if you have that. (used to be "Partitioner" in the menus)
[04:07] <hiexpo> !br | elizandro
[04:08] <drizzt_> hiexpo, would you stop it please?
[04:08] <elizandro> thanks ubottu
[04:08] <Docteh> Jon--: i wasn't aware that gparted deals with grub
[04:08] <QpSmiley> pvl1: still here?
[04:08] <hiexpo> drizzt_,  - stop what helping people ok
[04:08] <clayg> what is the easiest to use ipod program for ubuntu
[04:09] <pvl1> QpSmiley, yeah btu i might need to go soon
[04:09] <drizzt_> citing them useless factoids instead of helping
[04:09] <pvl1> QpSmiley, are you on the forums?
[04:09] <bubuzzz> it looks like the menu doesnt take the session from export command
[04:09] <Costanza> can anyone explain one thing.. when i want to remove gst-plugins-good it also wants to remove emphaty.. rhytmbox etc..  can i stop it from doing that.. i mean i just want to remove gst good so i can reinstall it.. why it removes other apps?
[04:09] <QpSmiley> pvl1: I can be
[04:09] <bubuzzz> is there anybody knowing this ?
[04:09] <QpSmiley> pvl1: should I post a topic?
[04:09] <hiexpo> drizzt_,  - if there useless why are they there ?
[04:09] <jimisrvrox> hey guys whats the command to put at boot options to choose the graphics mode? because when I boot up normally it comes up and says pc display correct/video mode not supported
[04:09] <keith> lubuntu on a 366mhz with 160 meg of ram it works fine  thank ubuntu guys
[04:09] <pvl1> QpSmiley, my forum sn is pavel989, message me
[04:09] <bastid_raZor> Costanza: instead of remove use reinstall
[04:09] <kathe> Costanza, I believe it's because empathy and rhytm box needs gst
[04:10] <xangua> Costanza: then use synaptic and mark it to reinstall
[04:10] <keith> old laptop new again
[04:10] <bricky> anybody good with VMware?
[04:10] <keith> crazzy
[04:10] <kathe> bricky, moderately decent, what are you looking to do, and which VMWare
[04:10] <bricky> http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1013225
[04:10] <keith> got to go to bed now later everyone
[04:11] <bricky> is there any other way to do this keith?
[04:11] <bricky> err kathe
[04:11] <keith> i guess not :)
[04:11] <keith>  good nite all
[04:11] <bricky> kathe? lol
[04:11] <kathe> bricky, that's talking about an error, I guess what you are asking is either can you install XP or can you get around the error
[04:12] <QpSmiley> pvl1: sent you a message
[04:12] <kathe> bricky, or are you asking how to adjust a windows install file
[04:12] <bricky> kathe: can I can install it on a physical partition with linux
[04:12] <bricky> Can I
[04:13] <foolguy> ok, I am in the ubuntu software center. I understand how to use programs from the terminal, but how do I add them to the applications?
[04:13] <kathe> bricky, yes you can follow the instructions, but the instructions asume you know something you probably don't.
[04:13] <mib_mib> i think i'm having permission issues including gems while deploying rails; gem directory is /usr/lib/ruby1.9.1/gems/1.9.1, how do i give it the proper permissions?
[04:13] <Gulopine> anybody know where i can ask questions about installing/configuring gis tools?
[04:13] <bricky> kathe: I would gladly  follow them, if I could find them
[04:13] <bastid_raZor> foolguy: right click applications.. edit menus .. but normally installing something that uses the gui it adds it automatically
[04:13] <bricky> kathe: what is that>?
[04:14] <kathe> bricky, it's called slip streaming, it gives you a generic set of instructions, but basically it's you create your own XP install disk that has some modifications
[04:14] <seanix> is there a chatroom for totem?
[04:15] <bricky> kathe: I cant use any CDS my computer overheats lol
[04:15] <bricky> I need to do it right on linux, preferably with VMware
[04:15] <kathe> bricky, what is your computer
[04:15] <bricky> im just wondering if that is possible
[04:15] <bricky> so it does not blue screen
[04:15] <kathe> bricky, yes it is
[04:15] <bricky> kathe HP DV 8000

[04:16] <bricky> Thakns
[04:16] <hiexpo> bricky,  blow it out with a compressor  most overheating probs are caused by dirty comps
[04:16] <tonechef> Does anyone run 10.04 on a Macbook 5,1 without overheating?
[04:16] <seanix> prince_jammys, thanks
[04:16] <prince_jammys> welcome
[04:16] <kathe> hiexpo, actually that's a firmware issue
[04:16] <kathe> hiexpo all HP DVs had it
[04:16] <uo3273-fvarklb> Can anyone help me understand the results I am getting with KlamAV?  I don't know if what it's telling me are really viruses ...
[04:16] <bricky> hiexpo: thanks ive been doing everything
[04:16] <bricky> this is by far the only chance I have :)
[04:17] <ZachK_> uo3273-fvarklb: It's unlikely that you have any viruses on your machine unless you are visiting some far out sites
[04:17] <hiexpo> kathe,  hp dv's?
[04:17] <ZachK_> welcome maruen
[04:17] <kathe> hiexpo their dv line like the dv5z I have and the dv 8000, early firmware had a fan speed issue
[04:17] <maruen> ZachK_, hey
[04:18] <maruen> ZachK_, tell me
[04:18] <ZachK_> maruen: tell you what
[04:18] <hiexpo> kathe, oh ok thanks did not know that / good to know
[04:19] <maruen> ZachK_, you wouldn't tell me something?
[04:19] <ZachK_> maruen: what do you wish to know?
[04:19] <bhavamitra> hello, at ubuntu 10.04 server install, i've created two lvm volumes encrypted and one not encrypted. the not encrypted one i could successfully set it to mount at /boot, but the encrypted ones i couldn't as it just flashed the screen and kept on the same menu portion. anything wrong?
[04:19] <uo3273-fvarklb> ZachK:  OK.  Yeah - I just reinstalled 9.10.  All I've done so far on Mozilla is get the hosts-file from mvps.org - and do the Google search required to get there.  KlamAV is telling me I have these viruses ... name of file = /usr/lib/lib*.so, name of the problem is "Encryption.Zip".  Are library files typically encrypted?  Is this something to be worried about?
[04:19] <ZachK_> maruen: If assistance thou need please, ask. If thee needest not assistance then join #ubuntu-offtopic

[04:25] <CppIsWeird> i just tried to install ubuntu-server on a computer using a usb flash drive. i downloaded the normal ubuntu-server iso and put it on the pen drive with unetboot. the installation stops because it cant find the ubuntu cd in the cdrom.
[04:25] <ZachK_> dr3mro: ok and?
[04:25] <shadows090> docteh there is a setting to change what happens when you close the lid. some of the ubuntus have been a bit iffy with the laptops and hybernate/standby though
[04:26] <StrangeCharm> bastid_raZor, sure, but i want less of that, not more
[04:26] <bastid_raZor> StrangeCharm: you can turn it off its enabled.
[04:26] <bastid_raZor> if
[04:26] <Guest31063> hi
[04:26] <hiexpo> Docteh,  in power management i believe on most
[04:27] <edbian> Guest31063, Hello.  Question about Ubuntu?
[04:27] <Docteh> shadows090: is there a console app to mess with power management? i just have minimal gui apps
[04:27] <QpSmiley> okay I'm back I made a topic on the forums if anyone has time maybe they could check it out :D thank you
[04:27] <shadows090> cppisweird, i probably can't help (since i've never had that problem), but you say it stops in the middle of installation?
[04:27] <CppIsWeird> shadows090, yes
[04:27] <QpSmiley> oh the topic is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9443706#post9443706 by the way
[04:28] <shadows090> docteh, which desktop system are you using. xubuntu?
[04:28] <Docteh> just icewm
[04:29] <lieb> Hey guys I just compiled  xchat_auth.c , I had no error messages, but I can still see ~ before my nick in the whois on irc, which is problematic on the undernet server, anyone have experience with ident in ubuntu? I'm using 10.04
[04:29] <shadows090> cppisweird, under http://learn.clemsonlinux.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Install_from_USB_drive#Booting_up_and_Installing it says that it should ask where the iso is located
[04:29] <CppIsWeird> i see.
[04:29] <shadows090> which is weird, because i don't recall it asking me that (i've used unetbootin for a few isos before). does it ask any any point in time though?
[04:30] <CppIsWeird> i did have another cd in the cdrom, perhaps if i remove it. brb i will try again
[04:30] <ZykoticK9> CppIsWeird, i could certainly be wrong!  but i didn't think server or alternate cd worked from USB, i've certainly heard of the cd error before.  best of luck man.  i hope i'm wrong :)
[04:30] <shadows090> cppisweird; alright. and maybe zykotick9 is right :-/
[04:31] <istvan> hey, i just read tar's --help but i can't figure out how to extract a .tar into a different directory. help?
[04:32] <mechdave> istvan: all I do is navigate to the directory I want the un tar'd file in and then type tar -xvf /path/to/tar/file
[04:33] <CppIsWeird> heh, thats sort of odd. it would seem to me that the server version would have more use with alternative installation methods.
[04:33] <ZykoticK9> CppIsWeird, it does - but i'm not sure about USB
[04:33] <shauno> istvan: it's oddly worded, but -C /destination/dir/ does it
[04:33] <istvan> ah, ok
[04:34] <istvan> thanks both of you!
[04:34] <shadows090> cppisweird, you'd think so. i guess 10.04 is still more of a bare bones OS
[04:35] <CppIsWeird> ZykoticK9, ive found tutorials on netbooting bit not from windows. does the dhcp server itself have to be pxe enabled?
[04:35] <SeanInSeattle> WebSiteAdministrationQuestion:  Hey all.  Can someone help me understand what the term media means/applies-to?  I heard that from a web developer friend of mine... and I didn't understand its use.
[04:35] <ZykoticK9> CppIsWeird, sorry man i've never tried using any of the net booting stuff.  good luck!
[04:35] <CppIsWeird> ZykoticK9, thanks anyways. :)
[04:36] <shadows090> SeanInSeattle, media just means music or videos usually, if that's the question
[04:36] <mopi> CppIsWeird: No you do not
[04:37] <lieb> I just compiled  xchat_auth.c , but I can still see ~ before my nick in the whois on irc, which is problematic on the undernet server, anyone have experience with enabling ident in ubuntu or at least this fake one? I'm using 10.04
[04:37] <mopi> CppIsWeird, what exactly are you trying to do? I just jumped in, I've done lots of stuff with PXE
[04:37] <SeanInSeattle> shadows098:  I got the impression that it was a group of file types which included css....
[04:37] <CppIsWeird> ubuntu-server on cd-romless box.
[04:37] <CppIsWeird> we just established that usb will not work so now were trying to attack netboot.
[04:37] <hiexpo> lieb,  /msg nickserv identify nic password
[04:38] <chalcedny> hiexpo, undernet has X
[04:38] <mopi> CppIsWeird, the easiest way to do that is to just boot from a flash drive. PXE is a long process.
[04:38] <hiexpo> oh
[04:38] <Cittadino> anyone knows how could I record all incoming/outcoming tcp traffic in a .log?
[04:38] <KB1JWQ> Cittadino: Define traffic.
[04:38] <neverwin> did somebody know how to install Xen on Ubuntu 10.4?
[04:38] <Appl6> Cittadino: Look up wireshark.
[04:38] <mopi> Cittadino, Wireshark?
[04:38] <shadows090> cittadino, you can do it with squid proxy; but i'm not really familiar with it to give instructions
[04:39] <KB1JWQ> Cittadino: tcpdump.
[04:39] <shadows090> cittadino: yeah wireshark would be MUCH easier lol
[04:39] <hiexpo> wireshark
[04:39] <lieb>  <hiexpo> i'm already loading my connect text file and it works, It registers my nick on undernet so I know that works
[04:39] <Cittadino> incoming/outcoming connections.. i think i can skip packets themselves.. not looking a sniffer just to log connections
[04:39] <lieb> [23:25] * [lieb] is logged in as lieb
[04:39] <emmanuel> This is kind of random but does anyone know how to use advanced gmail search?
[04:39] <neverwin> I have make Xen from source code, how I got Dom0 Kernel
[04:40] <chalcedny> * [lieb] (~jimbuntu@modemcabl
[04:40] <chalcedny> still not identd
[04:40] <lieb> yup
[04:40] <CppIsWeird> mobi, i have, it stops during the installation looking for the cd in the cdrom
[04:40] <mopi> CppIsWeird, check this out/ http://www.pendrivelinux.com/boot-multiple-iso-from-usb-multiboot-usb/
[04:40] <lieb> I know
[04:40] <rww> Axilus: try asking a more specific question, in #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:40] <hiexpo> lieb, so your using > /msg nickserv identify { your nic } {your password like that } ?
[04:40] <Cittadino> should i go for wireshark even just for connection logging?
[04:40] <lieb> I tried xinetd, oidentd before, and now im up to loading a fake one
[04:40] <lieb> yup
[04:41] <chalcedny> my computer froze now it let me reboot it.. are there things i ought to do?
[04:41] <Cittadino> ok ill check it out ty
[04:41] <lieb> it connects me but still prompts to /quote pass01234 something like that every once in a while
[04:41] <shadows090> cittadino: that would probably be easiest. it's possible to set up a real internal proxy server via squid (connects between the host and switch/router) that does full logs, but that's quite a hassle
[04:41] <hiexpo> i'm lost than
[04:41] <chalcedny> lieb, the quote pass thing can be bypassed with a script also
[04:42] <lieb> Ive compiled xchat_auth correctly into my /home/auth/
[04:42] <lieb> ive suidroot it too
[04:42] <lieb> xchat.org/auth/
[04:42] <Cittadino> shadows090 but i'd just get web connections in that case, correct me if im wrong
[04:42] <chalcedny> lieb, windows or linux, there is a script for it, ask in #xchat
[04:42] <k-rad> i notice in the user management aspect of gnome that you have the ability to change the location of a users home directory.  i am the only user on the comp, and wish to change the location of my /home directory, and next installation, change my username to match that directory.  is that all doable ?
[04:42] <lieb> linux
[04:43] <lieb> ill just look for a script then, but im pretty sure I looked
[04:43] <chalcedny> lieb, i have it if you dont get it
[04:43] <bricky> where can I download VMware for linux
[04:44] <hiexpo> bricky vmware
[04:44] <bricky> it has to be near impossible.. ;P
[04:44] <lieb> I'm asking here cause i'm using ubuntu lucid lynx, and if anyone had a suggestion to make ident work, tell me!, I've even forwarded port 113 in my router (tomato linux)
[04:44] <shadows090> cittadino: squid can log just about anything (even how much resources the hosts are using). it's quite advanced for what you're trying to do; and i'm not too familiar with it to answer specific questions. there's probably a way to just log ip connections though
[04:44] <hiexpo> bricky, one sec i have it
[04:44] <bricky> hiexpo: thats just step one and its taking me hours
[04:44] <lieb> it does support ident anyways, and I had DD-WRT before and that did as well
[04:44] <bricky> thank you hiexpo
[04:45] <k-rad> lieb, oidentd has worked for me in the past sudo apt-cache search oidentd
[04:45] <benkevan> how can I take a screenshot at my login manager? scrot just gives me error
[04:45] <benkevan> will import work?
[04:46] <k-rad> forward 113 on your static ip address, then just adjust its configuration i assume
[04:46] <k-rad> lieb, then restart servicer
[04:46] <k-rad> service
[04:47] <ZykoticK9> benkevan, does it have to be "your" login manager?  it's easy to take screenshots of VM's login windows, not sure how you could do it on a native system though!  good luck.
[04:47] <lieb> It's already forwarded, so is 10 dcc ports for downloads/uploads which works like a charm
[04:48] <k-rad> lieb, then get googling :)
[04:48] <trevor> anyone know if "Good Os" distro is any good compared to XUbuntu?
[04:49] <benkevan> ZykoticK9: yeah.. that was my thought also.. guess I'll just load up slim in a vm, and take a screenshot..
[04:49] <lieb> yup, im trying oidentd again
[04:49] <ubuntus> hi I want to upgrade to the new version of ubuntu by my hd only has 3.7 gigs left. when you upgrade are the pacakages from the old release "deselected" or are they actually purged?
[04:49] <shadows090> benkevan, if it doesn't have to be yours you could probably just find a picture lol. i'm not sure what the use is though
[04:50] <benkevan> ? it's to take a picture of a dm theme I made
[04:50] <benkevan> thanks..
[04:50] <shadows090> benkevan, ooh ok. wish i could help
[04:50] <shadows090> maybe a vnc would work instead?
[04:51] <shadows090> whichever is easier i guess
[04:51] <prince_jammys> trevor: ask at ##linux, though you're unlikely to get a straight answer to a question like this.
[04:51] <trevor> I spose so :)
[04:51] <benkevan> actually
[04:51] <kindofabuzz> How would I add a folder to the right click "Move to"?
[04:51] <benkevan> i should be able to use xnest?
[04:51] <acerimmer_> ubuntus: dump obsolete packages first, sudo apt-get autoremove
[04:51] <genewitch> Should i install the FGLRX drivers on 10.04 for an ATI 5850, or should i download the ones from ATI?
[04:51] <QpSmiley1> yay!!! my gdm is fixed!
[04:51] <kindofabuzz> well gdm!
[04:51] <ubuntus> acerimeer_, before or after the upgrade?
[04:52] <prince_jammys> QpSmiley1: used nv driver?
[04:52] <shadows090> benkevan, yeah that should work actually
[04:52] <QpSmiley1> yes prince!
[04:52] <benkevan> QpSmiley1: did you uninstall it
[04:52] <benkevan> ?
[04:52] <markcl> whats the best way to share my net connection with a xp netbook via cable? im using ubuntu 10.4.
[04:52] <QpSmiley1> no ben, my driver wouldn't allow gdm to load then i switched the driver
[04:52] <prince_jammys> QpSmiley1: you'll probably be tempted to try propietary ones like you were doing. Now you know what to do when Xorg breaks.
[04:53] <shadows090> markcl, you could do a bridge if you have a crossover cable
[04:53] <ZykoticK9> benkevan, "  -n, --xnest  Ignored - retained for compatibility" that's from gdmflexiserver (what used to run xnest)
[04:53] <kathe> markcl, what type of connection do you want
[04:53] <QpSmiley1> yea I'm planning on trying some others now =P
[04:53] <hiexpo> bricky,  - sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[04:53] <hiexpo> bricky,  - pm
[04:54] <prince_jammys> QpSmiley1: see the bot's guide about nvidia
[04:54] <flan_suse> I'm not quite sure I understand. Is Sun Java JRE available in 64-bit for Ubuntu from the repositories?
[04:54] <flan_suse> And this applies to Hardy, Jaunty, Karmic, and Lucid?
[04:54] <QpSmiley1> okay thank you prince_jammys
[04:54] <Traveler> why is my text cut in half in this chat?
[04:54] <hiexpo> bricky,  - go here and find it instructions included   \\\ http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Karmic
[04:55] <hiexpo> bricky,  u are useing 9.10 ?
[04:56] <mopi> bot
[04:56] <kathe> hiexpo, he is using 10.4
[04:56] <genewitch> should i install GRUB on wubi insall?
[04:56] <ZykoticK9> benkevan, ok so i installed xnest - then tried running it with "Xnest :1" but it just shows me a black screen :(  Hope you find an actual solution.
[04:56] <markcl> shadows090, kathe: i want to share my connection from ubuntu to xp. i have the cable already installed. my only problem is how to set it up in ubuntu.
[04:56] <hiexpo> kathe,  - oh ok he'sgot problems than   :)
[04:56] <acerimmer_> genewitch: NO NO A THOUSAND TIMES NO!
[04:57] <genewitch> acerimmer_: yeah i thought it was odd that it even asked.
[04:57] <mopi> markcl, just give each computer a static ip address in the same subnet with the same mask, etc
[04:57] <biggestchops> acerimmer_ what is that line from
[04:57] <kathe> markcl, what type of connection, do you just want to copy files, play games, basically proticols
[04:57] <acerimmer_> genewitch: at least research grub/wubi before you attempt it
[04:57] <soge> my sound is mute and i cant unmute it. I'm using ubuntu v10.04 lts, who do i unmute it
[04:57] <biggestchops> yes yes a thousand times yes
[04:57] <acerimmer_> biggestchops: that's from my life, man.  everyday
[04:57] <biggestchops> is it jane austen?
[04:57] <genewitch> acerimmer_: it was a system update thing, it asked if i wanted to continue without installing grub
[04:58] <biggestchops> it is funny that someone named acerimmer_ would be quoting jane austen unwittingly
[04:58] <acerimmer_> genewitch: sorry gotta go in no
[04:58] <biggestchops> if indeed acerimmer_ means what i think it does
[04:58] <markcl> mopi: is there an easy way to set it up so that my ubuntu box automatically gives xp an adress via dhcp or is the static ip option the best setup?
[04:58] <bastid_raZor> !ics | markcl
[04:58] <shadows090> markcl, the older ubuntus (6 versions) could use bridge-utils to set it up (should be in repository), but it did require some manual connections
[04:59] <shadows090> manual settings**
[04:59] <mopi> markcl: static is your best option for crossover
[04:59] <evon> anyone know any screenlets that play music other than MPD
[04:59] <kathe> markcl, you can use bridge-utils, or if you have a router
[04:59] <mopi> markcl: its the quickest way
[04:59] <thompa> is there a simple way to join irc ? i cant figure out empathy
[04:59] <markcl> thanks mopi.
[04:59] <soge> my sound is mute and i cant unmute it. I'm using ubuntu v10.04 lts, how do i unmute it, n e one?
[04:59] <genewitch> So should i install the restricted FGLRX driver that ubuntu is talking about for my ati 5850 or should i install the proprietary one from ATI's website?
[05:00] <flan_suse> Is there a 100% working native Java 64-bit for Ubuntu now? Or does it still have issues that the 32-bit version does not?
[05:00] <kathe> soge, that's a tricky one, because there can be a lot of things, have you checked the forums yet for your model computer
[05:00] <edbian> genewitch, It's the same driver
[05:00] <thompa> how are you supposed to join irc support ubuntu?
[05:00] <edbian> genewitch, use the package manager
[05:00] <thompa> took me forever
[05:00] <genewitch> edbian: good to know
[05:00] <mknarr> thompa, use Xchat
[05:00] <genewitch> edbian: package manager? not the hardware drivers screen?
[05:00] <mknarr> xChat 2**
[05:00] <thompa> ok
[05:01] <edbian> genewitch, same thing again :)
[05:01] <soge> kathe: it was working before ( last startup ) , now it just says "mute all". I
[05:01] <glorious__> thompa: I did better w/ Konversation.  Its pretty simple.  I haven't figured out empathy yet either
[05:01] <genewitch> empathy reminds me of apple chat
[05:01] <thompa> mknarr: seems more difficult now
[05:01] <mopi> does anybody know if or when samba 4 will be released?
[05:01] <mknarr> thompa, i just set it up like 3 secs ago
[05:02] <kathe> soge, you install anything or run an update recently
[05:02] <thompa> i keep clicking wrong thing. rooms or these flickr and other accounts
[05:02] <glorious__> thompa:  hate to say, but i couldn't figure out xchat either.  Konversation
[05:02] <thompa> made to mess you up it seems
[05:02] <soge> yes, i installed quite a few things...
[05:02] <thompa> yea ive used konversation
[05:02] <mknarr> ok, i find xchat pretty ez but i onlu ever log on to 1 irc channel this one lol
[05:03] <glorious__> thompa: what are you on right now?
[05:03] <thompa> i make my self available in empathy and nothing happens
[05:03] <DeliriumTremens> any idea why my synergy wont stay connected?
[05:03] <thompa> empathy. i dont know how i got it working
[05:03] <hiexpo> glorious__,  pidgin
[05:03] <QpSmiley1> okay, I have an nVidia GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 .. should I use nv or nouveau
[05:03] <thompa> or is it pigin i dont know
[05:03] <glorious__> thompa: that's too bad, or I'd ask you how you did it
[05:04] <thompa> lol
[05:04] <DeliriumTremens> vnc keeps bringing up black screens, synergy stops working
[05:04] <mopi> is there channel specifically for ubuntu server
[05:04] <DeliriumTremens> and some things i dont want to do in terminal
[05:04] <DeliriumTremens> options?
[05:04] <kathe> soge, I wouldn't know where to begin then, I highly suggest searching the forums for your model computer and no sound
[05:04] <prince_jammys> !server > mopi
[05:04] <thompa> glorious__: support page is wrong too. it says use something elese
[05:04] <glorious__> hiexpo: well hate to say, but i haven't figured out pidgin yet either
[05:04] <mknarr> !server > mknarr
[05:05] <hiexpo> glorious__, pidgin is easy and does it all
[05:05] <mopi> prince_jammys: thanks
[05:05] <soge> kathe: my computer is no specific model... ( its custom ), so do i instead search for the motherboard then ?
[05:05] <glorious__> thompa: I usually want to use the default first so i can teach others, but so far i can't figure out empathy
[05:05] <prince_jammys> mopi: err, #ubuntu-server
[05:06] <thompa> glorious__: yea
[05:06] <kathe> soge, do you know the model of soundcard and if on board sound, then model
[05:06] <thompa> broadcast accounts confusing term
[05:06] <hiexpo> glorious__,  - what do u need it to do?
[05:06] <thompa> flikr and all sorts of junk on there
[05:06] <mknarr> !join #ubuntu-server
[05:07] <glorious__> hiexpo: okay, at some point i'll try pidgin again on your rec.
[05:07] <prince_jammys> mknarr: slash instead of exclamation point
[05:07] <soge> kathe: no i'll have to look that up, also do you know why this happened?
[05:07] <mknarr> prince_jammys,  thx
[05:07] <kathe> soge, usually it's some jacked up configuration in pulse or alsa that does this, it's been a problem since they put pulse audio in ubuntu
[05:07] <hunk_> Hey guys, I'm using Ubuntu 10.0.4 and had to reinstall my ati drivers from the package manager and I reenabled 3D acceleration and now it's not picking up all my monitor resolutions any ideas :/
[05:07] <glorious__> hiexpo: to begin w/, just connect
[05:07] <kathe> soge, you will find lots of people with the problem, I've had it on every machine, and the fix has been different every time
[05:07] <kathe> soge, the worst case scenerio is getting rid of pulse
[05:08] <kathe> soge, there is an artical called getting rid of the beast called pulse or similiar
[05:08] <soge> kathe: pulse... alright i'll have to research this then , damn.
[05:08] <markcl> is there a point to setting up a firewall in ubuntu? arent the programs trusted anyway?
[05:08] <thompa> glorious__: im going back to konversation. empathy is a nightmare
[05:08] <copantl> hi

[05:09] <mopi> !
[05:09] <prince_jammys> mopi: /msg ubottu SomeKeyword
[05:09] <copantl> any body know how to fix the network-manager issue?
[05:09] <hunk_> Anyone?
[05:09] <mknarr> hunk_,  try reinstalling your divers or manually configure your  video config file(dont ask me how to configure the file :S)

[05:10] <hunk_> Oh ok I'll give that a shot. Thanks!
[05:10] <prince_jammys> mopi: for example: /msg ubottu server   to start a chat with ubottu.
[05:10] <kathe> copanti, i often remove the nm applet and readd it
[05:10] <glorious__> hiexpo: i just started it and it seems like i must have gotten further than i remembered
[05:10] <tom_> How do you restart x-windows?
[05:10] <taiyal> am I the only one who's had an installation of WINE break Firefox's font rendering?
[05:10] <wasutton3-Laptop> does anyone know of a working YCbCr to RGB converter?
[05:11] <miopio> hoho
[05:11] <mopi> is there a list of commands for ubottu
[05:11] <prince_jammys> tom_: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  , if you use a graphical login.
[05:11] <kathe> taiyal, i've heard of that recently, so i dont think so, your not alone...  don't know the fix :(
[05:11] <tom_> prince_jammys: x-windows keeps crashing and I can't get to a terminal.
[05:11] <ZykoticK9> tom_, alt+sysrq+k is the panic keys, "sudo service gdm restart" is the command to restart GDM
[05:11] <taiyal> kathe: I'd just look it up on Google but I need to install Dillo first >_<
[05:11] <miopio> fdfsdfgsg
[05:11] <miopio> nhp]p
[05:12] <prince_jammys> tom_: that sucks. see if the sysrq way works.
[05:12] <copantl> kathe: i has to installed wicd, but the problem is that wicd do not work with vpn's , any idea?
[05:12] <tom_> ZykoticK9: I don't have a "sysrq" key.
[05:12] <ZykoticK9> tom_, check printscreen
[05:12] <glorious__> mopi: i think if you go into private chat w/ ubottu you can ask and get its commands
[05:12] <prince_jammys> tom_: try the prntscrn key
[05:12] <prince_jammys> or prtsc
[05:13] <prince_jammys> seems to have worked, at least partially ;)
[05:13] <mknarr> lol
[05:13] <prince_jammys> hehe
[05:14] <glorious__> hiexpo: at least I got a channel going
[05:15] <prince_jammys> mopi: /msg ubottu ubottu
[05:15] <copantl> any body know howto fix the nm-applet?
[05:15] <Izinucs> copantl: in what way?
[05:15] <kathe> copantl, so the applet is not letting you vpn?
[05:15] <taiyal> is there any way to remove packages with no installation candidate from apt's package lists?
[05:15] <copantl> kathe: nope the nm-applet do not work at all
[05:16] <lieb> It works
[05:16] <prince_jammys> sudo invoke-rc.d network-manager restart
[05:16] <lieb> My oidentd is working !!!
[05:16] <copantl> i have to use wicd for connect to wireless
[05:16] <Izinucs> copantl: for wired or wireless
[05:16] <kathe> copantl, 10.04
[05:16] <lieb> or rather I mean my ident daemon...
[05:16] <copantl> 10.04 amd64
[05:16] <copantl> over a dell xps 1330
[05:17] <Izinucs> copantl: ah.. there's benefits to wicd and NM.. I use wicd on the desktop because I can set a static ip and nm on laptop for vpn
[05:17] <copantl> i got alll my vpns with nm .... you can tell how difficult is for me this issue
[05:18] <glorious__> For a friend I'm looking for a coldfusion ide for Ubuntu.  Any recommendations?
[05:19] <Izinucs> How fast in mb's is 100KB/s ??
[05:19] <kathe> .1
[05:19] <copantl> when i tried to edit a network on nm the window get hang
[05:20] <Izinucs> copantl: and wicd doesn't do vpn
[05:20] <copantl> Izinucs: exactly
[05:20] <r0zz> hi, im working with j2me using netbeans ide on karmic but lock and die when i run my aplication
[05:20] <r0zz> what can i do?
[05:21] <Izinucs> copantl: is your wireless network secured? wep or wpa?
[05:21] <copantl> wpa
[05:21] <copantl> i can use terminal for vpn...but this is not a option for me
[05:22] <Izinucs> copantl: if you want to try NM again then do so with wpa disabled.. no security.. if it connects then you know you have to work on the encryption side..
[05:22] <copantl> its suppose to work right
[05:22] <copantl> ok Izinucs
[05:22] <Izinucs> copantl: not sure if it's accurate but I think NM will only do wpa2
[05:22] <r0zz> hi, im working with j2me using netbeans ide on karmic but lock and die when i run my aplication, what do i have to do?
[05:23] <pvl1> how come 777 is not a valid octal umask
[05:23] <copantl> Izinucs: wep, wap and wap2 works ok in 9.10
[05:23] <copantl> like a charm
[05:24] <glorious__> r0zz: I wonder if #ubuntu-java would have some help???
[05:24] <Izinucs> copantl: did you "upgrade" to 10.04 or fresh install?
[05:24] <copantl> Izinucs: fresh install
[05:25] <r0zz> thanks, but i think they are too busy? anymore?
[05:25] <prince_jammys> pvl1: says who?
[05:25] <Izinucs> copantl: strange.. I haven't tried encryption on my laptop yet so I haven't struggled with your issue.. but still that's strange.
[05:25] <glorious__> r0zz: I went to that channel and it looks like there are a few people over there.  Might be worth a try.
[05:25] <pvl1> prince_jammys, pysdm. im trying to mount a drive with 777 permission, but it tells me that it isnt valid
[05:26] <kathe> copantl, what is your nic?
[05:26] <prince_jammys> pvl1: you probably want 000
[05:26] <copantl> you know the extrange part.... after about 30 ninutes the applet appear in my panel
[05:26] <prince_jammys> pvl1: umask is the inverse of the mode you'd use in say, chmod.
[05:26] <pvl1> prince_jammys, uh, alright ty. inverse?
[05:26] <r0zz> glorious__: thanks  im going to try again
[05:27] <copantl> but every time when i tried to edit a network or add a vpn get hang!
[05:27] <genewitch> Two things: how do i make the HDMI audio work on my radeon, and how do i tell ubuntu/ati that i want the Right monitor to be "main display" so my desktop is on it?
[05:27] <Izinucs> copantl: typically NM and wicd don't coexist well.. you typically have to uninstall one or the other
[05:27] <prince_jammys> pvl1: the opposite. 777 denies everything to everyone
[05:27] <genewitch> they're "multi display" but the bars and stuff are on monitor 1, i want them on monitor 2
[05:27] <pvl1> prince, oh lol, now i feel like an idiot. but why dont chmod and this coincide?
[05:27] <prince_jammys> pvl1: $ umask 777; >foo; ls -l foo;  ... ---------- 1 mischa mischa 0 Jun 11 00:25 foo
[05:27] <prince_jammys> pvl1: yeah, you don't want that :)
[05:28] <copantl> ok...  the problem is if i unisntall wicd ..i cant get connect
[05:28] <pvl1> prince_jammys, so is it that chmod is the opposite of it? im confused on y they dont work the same
[05:28] <kathe> copantl, have you tried removing the notification box and readding it
[05:28] <kathe> to the panel
[05:28] <prince_jammys> pvl1: i don't know why
[05:28] <kremlon> does anyone know of a proxy scanner that works on linux?
[05:29] <copantl> kathe: remove it from the panel?
[05:29] <pvl1> prince_jammys, oh well, thank you for the help though
[05:29] <Izinucs> copantl: you could download the .deb from packages.ubuntu.com and have it available "just in case" .. when you uninstall it will not uninstall the dependancies I believe
[05:29] <prince_jammys> pvl1: welcome. wikipedia perhaps talks about umask's history.
[05:30] <kathe> copantl, you said, the nm manager shows up after 30 minutes right
[05:30] <copantl> Izinucs: good idea
[05:30] <copantl> kathe: yes
[05:30] <copantl> kathe: i did that i remoit from the panel but nothing
[05:30] <pvl1> prince_jammys, i was already on it, but i guess i need to read into it. one more quick bit, how do i find the gid of a group?
[05:30] <prince_jammys> pvl1: probably because umask cannot enable any _new_ permissions that weren't already enabled.
[05:31] <copantl> kathe: what version do you have?
[05:31] <kathe> copantl, the nm manager usually is part of the notification grouping, along with power and sound...  if you remove the notification area, and readd it see if it shows up right away
[05:31] <kathe> copantl, I run 9.10 and 10.04 on my boxes
[05:31] <STF> hi i am looking for a simple dhcp-server for my wlanstick to set up a small "hotspot"
[05:31] <bricky> how would I repair my botched vb installation
[05:31] <pvl1> prince_jammys, ooh so it can only kinda work to the max permissions allowed
[05:31] <prince_jammys> pvl1: getent group | grep GroupName  # the first 'group' is literal
[05:31] <copantl> kathe: not this problem in any one?
[05:32] <kathe> copantl, after an update on 9.04, and when i first installed 10.04, I had problems with the nm showing up, often it would be missing or show up as another icon
[05:32] <pvl1> prince_jammys, thanks again
[05:32] <prince_jammys> pvl1: welcome
[05:32] <kathe> copantl, when I removed the notification area, and readded it, the nm would show up suddenly
[05:32] <genewitch> STF: there's ICS help
[05:32] <kathe> copantl, that's why i ask
[05:32] <genewitch> !ics|STF
[05:33] <Izinucs> transferring a file using scp from one machine to another on my lan is S L O W ...
[05:33] <copantl> kathe: ok, how do you remove it and readded?... from the panel
[05:34] <Blue1> STF: this is what I did:  http://pkill-9.com/wordpress/?p=218
[05:34] <copantl> kathe: because i did it using properties from panel and nothing
[05:34] <crabgrass> hey guys, interesting wget thing i wanna do
[05:35] <kathe> copantl,  there is a little spot if you right click on the panel it selects the notification section and choose remove from panel
[05:35] <pvl1> prince_jammys, well i changed all the values to the correct values, and its mounting with the permissions i want, except in read-only mode, and fstab doesnt seem to say anything about read onyl for this drive
[05:35] <kathe> copantl, then right click on the panel, choose add to panel, and select the notification area out of the list
[05:35] <prince_jammys> pvl1: what is the umask you used?
[05:35] <copantl> kathe: you complete right whe i delete it... the nm appear in my panel
[05:35] <pvl1> prince_jammys, 000
[05:35] <crabgrass> i'm trying to save a mirror of a website, but the images therein are stored on another server. how can i use wget (or maybe curl) to grab all those images?
[05:36] <prince_jammys> pvl1: mm, i don't know. ask the channel, pasting the fstab line
[05:36] <oren> i got GeForce 6200. i installed glx-180 and glx-185. when running nvidia-setting i am told i don't use nvidia X driver and advice me to install nvidia-xconfig but I can't find this package. advice?
[05:36] <pvl1> prince_jammys, actually i think i found it, hold on a sec
[05:36] <copantl> kathe: i don't what happen but when i delete the icon from panel the nm appear and is working
[05:37] <crabgrass> wget's been running for about 5 minutes now, and it's pulled down close to 400 robots files, and only about 6 images. this is not what i want it to do
[05:37] <copantl> but all my notification of power and sound desappear
[05:37] <kathe> coplantl, it's a current bug
[05:37] <pvl1> prince_jammys, yeah its doing ro, which is read only
[05:37] <Zeu5> hi guys, i have another issue with regards to ubuntu. its about mplayer. i am using 10.0.4 and i cannot run my rmvb files. i keep gettin a directshowsource could not open as vidoe or audio. i have tried this page already. http://ubuntuguide.net/install-mplayer-and-multimedia-codecs-in-ubuntu-10-04lucid
[05:37] <prince_jammys> pvl1: it's nice when things make sense
[05:37] <kathe> coplantl, you need to readd the notification again
[05:37] <STF> !ics
[05:38] <klaxian> when i start ubuntu, i get an error that the nvidia driver could not be loaded and x is in low graphics mode.  restarting X fixed the problem and i verified that nvidia is loaded with lsmod. is this a race condition?  how can i solve it?
[05:38] <pvl1> prince_jammys, i think its a bug in pysdm, it keeps rewriting it to ro
[05:38] <crabgrass> anyone?
[05:38] <prince_jammys> pvl1: i have no idea what pysdm is :)
[05:38] <pvl1> !pysdm
[05:38] <pvl1> wow really?
[05:38] <Zeu5> hi guys, i have another issue with regards to ubuntu. its about mplayer. i am using 10.0.4 and i cannot run my rmvb files. i keep gettin a directshowsource could not open as vidoe or audio. i have tried this page already. http://ubuntuguide.net/install-mplayer-and-multimedia-codecs-in-ubuntu-10-04lucid
[05:38] <prince_jammys> a desktop manager?
[05:38] <STF> blue1: i would like to do it like you, but i've have the problem that i have the server '(it is an old Laptop) behind a router
[05:39] <pvl1> prince_jammys, nay, its a gui for fstab written in python
[05:39] <prince_jammys> pvl1: ah.
[05:39] <pvl1> prince_jammys, for us lazy people. but sometimes u just gotta do it by hand to get it right
[05:40] <rtronk> hello, i created a selections list, dpkg --get-selections > Installs
[05:40] <prince_jammys> !clone
[05:40] <rtronk> i replaced it with an existing sourcelist i created from another server.
[05:40] <copantl> kathe: yes  i can tell that... get hang again
[05:40] <ZykoticK9> Zeu5, be sure you have restricted extras installed and then try "mplayer -vo x11 $filename"
[05:40] <genewitch> :JKAHSDL:ASH
[05:40] <prince_jammys> rtronk: see if the factoid i hit prematurely helps.
[05:41] <kathe> coplantl, that's what i thought, my wife actually found a proceedure on some forum that fixes this
[05:41] <kathe> coplantl, unfortunately, i don't know where and she's not here
[05:41] <copantl> kathe: uggh what shame
[05:41] <kathe> coplantl, but it has to do with resetting the defaults
[05:41] <kathe> coplantl, to gnome
[05:42] <kathe> coplantl, I suggest searching the forums for the perm solution
[05:42] <ZykoticK9> Zeu5, sorry re-read your error, looks more like a codec issue then video output
[05:42] <kathe> coplantl, until then, that's a work around
[05:42] <Zeu5> ZykoticK9: i am now installing restricted extras.
[05:42] <copantl> kathe: i thought that i have to compile from tar
[05:42] <ZykoticK9> Zeu5, restricted should work
[05:42] <Zeu5> ZykoticK9: erm. okie. i hope so too.
[05:42] <kathe> coplantl, no, it was something small, my wife just copied and pasted some commands in the terminal
[05:43] <crabgrass> well, #wget is dead.
[05:43] <copantl> kathe: those the guys of canonical knows about this issues?
[05:43] <crabgrass> anyone in here know wget fairly well? i'm trying to rip all the photos off a website, and my current method isn't working too well
[05:43] <Zeu5> ZykoticK9: it didnt work. same problem
[05:43] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: have you looked at the mirroring examples at the bottom of wget's man page?
[05:43] <copantl> kathe: because this thing can take me to another distro
[05:44] <kathe> copantl, yep, she said there was a bug entry on it already, it has to do with the notification/gnome/nm conflict, working on a patch
[05:44] <Zeu5> hi guys, i have another issue with regards to ubuntu. its about mplayer. i am using 10.0.4 and i cannot run my rmvb files. i keep gettin a directshowsource could not open as vidoe or audio. i have tried this page already. http://ubuntuguide.net/install-mplayer-and-multimedia-codecs-in-ubuntu-10-04lucid
[05:44] <genewitch> two questions again: How do i set which display is my primary (the one the desktop is on). and secondly, my blu ray drive completely DIES when ubuntu starts. won't eject, won't retract the tray, and i have to actually shut the computer off to get it to reboot (it hangs on SATA5 - the blu ray).
[05:44] <genewitch> The error is ATA 3 softreset failed
[05:45] <jack_> Why does my computer shut down every time I try to burn a video DVD?
[05:45] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: yeah, and it did help some, but since the images themselves are hosted on another site, i have to run with -H to get them at all, and that's resulting in about 800 robots.txt files for each image. very innefficient.
[05:45] <copantl> kathe: ok thanks for all ... i will googling for the answer
[05:45] <ZykoticK9> Zeu5, i'm downloading a rmvb but it will be a few minutes
[05:45] <kathe> copantl, I stay away from the LTS releases of ubuntu, they usually place the most resent push everything to the max they are willing to, so they can support it for that extended release time, but it takes them 6 months to patch up...  9.10 is what I run on most, and it's solid
[05:45] <genewitch> Xinerama isn't working properly either. should i file a bug?
[05:45] <kathe> copantl, np
[05:46] <copantl> kathe: you are complete right about versions.... i'm very coriuos thats kill me :)
[05:46] <prince_jammys> genewitch: now that you ask, you'll never rest until you do
[05:47] <genewitch> prince_jammys: could be. but it's not letting me use the entirety of my largest monitor.
[05:47] <prince_jammys> i'd search for that bug first
[05:47] <Zeu5> ZykoticK9: thanks, i have to be away for 20 odd minutes. thank you if you can leave a message here for later.
[05:48] <steven89> How do I view what process a hidden PID is from command line?
[05:48] <KB1JWQ> steven89: Define "hidden?"
[05:48] <prince_jammys> a hidden PID?
[05:48] <steven89> yeah
[05:48] <prince_jammys> explain.
[05:48] <steven89> I ran unhide or whatever and it says it found a HIDDEN PID: 3301
[05:48] <KB1JWQ> steven89: 'ps aux' as root should show anything running; if it's not there something's amiss.
[05:49] <ZykoticK9> Zeu5_, the 1st rmvb worked with mplayer
[05:49] <jack_> Why does the computer shut down when I try to burn a DVD-Video?
[05:49] <steven89> Thanks.  I will try that
[05:49] <KB1JWQ> unhide?
[05:49] <corinth> Hey room. Anyone know how to switch the Radiance window controls to the right side of the decoration?
[05:49] <Zeu5> ZykoticK9: mine cannot. i am not sure what i need to do to get it to work?
[05:49] <rww> !controls | corinth
[05:49] <prince_jammys> jack_: see if your logs reveal anything. this used to happen to me (overheat)
[05:49] <ZykoticK9> Zeu5, both of the files i download work
[05:50] <ZykoticK9> rww, !controls is my favorite bot message - it links to my site ;)
[05:50] <rww> ZykoticK9: hehe :)
[05:50] <jack_> I am a complete noob.  How do I check logs?
[05:50] <corinth> Thanks a ton, rww.
[05:51] <Zeu5> ZykoticK9: so that means i downloaded a bogus file?
[05:51] <prince_jammys> jack_: less /var/log/dmesg.0 , for example
[05:52] <ZykoticK9> Zeu5, ? the mplayer output in a terminal does give an error "ERROR: Could not open required DirectShow codec drv43260.dll" but it's working!
[05:52] <taiyal> I fixed the firefox/wine problem by removing the msttcorefonts folder and rebuilding the font cache
[05:53] <prince_jammys> jack_: gnome may come with a graphical log viewer, see the menus.
[05:53] <prince_jammys> you'd be interested in dmesg's log
[05:54] <steven89> I ran 'ps aux' as root and it did now show the process for the PID.  I later tried again and it only detected one as before but a different hidden PID.  These hidden PIDs are not showing up with Sudo ps aux.  What does this mean? The hidden PID number keeps changing.
[05:54] <mek8630> Does anybody in here use Skype?
[05:54] <ZykoticK9> taiyal, if you are running firefox under wine - it's a really good idea.  it can open many sites impossible under any 'linux' native browsers, it's also actually faster then native firefox.
[05:54] <gtoy> my screen goes black at startup what can I do?
[05:54] <jack_> prince_jammys: I found the log file viewer. What do I look for that says my computer overheated?
[05:54] <theadmin> Any way to make notifications be the old way? Like not somewhere in the middle but in top-right?
[05:54] <prince_jammys> jack_: look for 'CPU' to begin with
[05:55] <prince_jammys> jack_: specifically, look for the log entries at the time you shut down
[05:55] <ZykoticK9> theadmin, good luck!
[05:55] <theadmin> ZykoticK9: ?
[05:55] <theadmin> ZykoticK9: One of Canonical's weirdnesses which I still haven't managed to fix lol
[05:55] <ZykoticK9> theadmin, moving the notification window is very non-trivial.
[05:55] <genewitch> how do i tell ubuntu what display is my primary display? (IE change 2 to 1 and vice versa)
[05:56] <ZykoticK9> theadmin, i've seen hacks to do it, but have never done it myself
[05:56] <kathe> taiyal, yeah
[05:56] <anthony> hi to all of you thanks to the idea of community i finally get Ubuntu 10.04 working on my computer. thank you so much...
[05:57] <greenjon> anthony: glad to hear that :)
[05:57] <mek8630> anthony: I had a problem trying to install 10.04 what kind of problem was you  having?
[05:57] <jack_> prince_jammys: None of the log files have "cpu" in them.
[05:57] <mek8630> anthony: but I was never able to fix the problem that is why I am asking
[05:58] <theadmin> ZykoticK9: I really want it back where it is supposed to be :/
[05:58] <anthony> mek8630: first i boot the live cd and press f6 tho disable the acpi=off and apic...
[05:59] <theadmin> Canonical is hacking gnome like heck knows what
[06:00] <ZykoticK9> theadmin, those "hacking gnome" is what makes Ubuntu what it is!
[06:00] <mek8630> anthony: why did you have to disable those?
[06:00] <theadmin> ZykoticK9: Oh?... Hm... I'd rather have it without this hack anyway
[06:00] <Mirshe> hi
[06:00] <genewitch> probably in a virtual machine
[06:00] <Mirshe> i'm confused
[06:00] <mek8630> anthony: for some reason it quit in the middle of the installation on mine. After that it only wanted to run in command-line type
[06:00] <Mirshe> anyone know where to download the 64-bit version of flash?
[06:00] <ZykoticK9> theadmin, that's why i leave it the way it is ;)
[06:00] <mek8630> Does anyone in here use skype or anything like it?
[06:00] <theadmin> But at least Ubuntu works... Tried Fedora right now, kernel panic right after boot lol
[06:01] <Mirshe> it seems to have gone missing
[06:01] <kathe> mek8630 i do
[06:01] <wildbat> << speaking in skype now
[06:01] <goodmami> Hi, i upgraded to Lucid and I noticed temporary unresponsiveness when logging in (either at login screen or immediately after). It appears to be unresponsive while it connects to wireless networks. Any ideas?
[06:01] <mek8630> kathe: do you use a handset phone ?
[06:01] <kathe> mek8630 no
[06:01] <kathe> goodmami, you called it right, the lag is on wireless networks
[06:02] <mek8630> kathe: ok thanks anyways I use a handset phone that plugs into the usb and i can't figure out how to install the driver for it so I can use it instead of a microphone
[06:02] <rtronk> !clone
[06:02] <goodmami> kathe: is this a known problem? I couldn't find a bug on launchpad
[06:02] <kathe> goodmami, that and other physical drives
[06:02] <prince_jammys> rtronk: glad you liked it
[06:02] <anthony> mek8630: i don't know why i need to disable them maybe because i need to boot the cd then i install Ubuntu 10.04. then it works
[06:02] <Mirshe> I've just noticed that I did not have Flash installed.  I run Lucid 64-bit, but the 64-bit version of Flash seems to have gone missing.  Anyone know where to download it from?
[06:02] <root___> hi
[06:02] <kathe> doomami, here are the steps I've seen, go into bios, and make sure no unneeded hardware is enabled, such as a floppy drive that doesn't exist
[06:03] <Aliv3> umm
[06:03] <mek8630> anthony: thank you I will try what you did and maybe I will get lucky
[06:03] <genewitch> how do i tell ubuntu what display is my primary display? (IE change 2 to 1 and vice versa)
[06:03] <Aliv3> where is the power button on ubuntu 10.04?
[06:03] <rtronk> is it possible to UN install all dpkg package's that arnt on a clone Installed <- file
[06:03] <kathe> goodmami, then after checking bios, remove extra wireless devices
[06:03] <theadmin> Mirshe: sudo apt-get --reinstall install flashplugin-installer
[06:03] <anthony>  mek8630: ok your welcome..
[06:03] <theadmin> Aliv3: What?
[06:03] <Appl6> Aliv3: Top right corner.
[06:03] <Mirshe> theadmin: thanks
[06:03] <kathe> goodmami, is known bug under general hardware
[06:03] <Aliv3> ok thanks
[06:03] <Aliv3> sorry for stupid question.
[06:03] <Ivunche> chile?
[06:03] <prince_jammys> !es > Ivunche
[06:03] <goodmami> kathe: great, thanks for the help
[06:04] <ZykoticK9> Mirshe, if you want the 64bit version of flash from a PPA check out these directions, good luck http://www.sucka.net/2010/04/proper-install-of-flash-for-x64-ubuntu/
[06:04] <jack_> prince_jammys: I found a log entry in syslog: "Critical temperature reached (102 C), shutting down."
[06:04] <Mirshe> theadmin: are you sure that's an i686 version?
[06:04] <prince_jammys> jack_: there you go, overheating.
[06:04] <Mirshe> all the files are appended as i386
[06:04] <ZykoticK9> Mirshe, theadmin's recommendation is 32bit flash with the click issue
[06:04] <prince_jammys> jack_: perhaps your fan[s] is bad.
[06:04] <Mirshe> ahhh
[06:04] <theadmin> ZykoticK9: Err, "click issue"
[06:04] <theadmin> ?
[06:04] <mek8630> Does anyone else in here use Skype and a handset usb phone to make/receive calls?
[06:05] <ZykoticK9> theadmin, flash on 64bit with the 32 wrapped flash version has an issue sometimes where clicking doesn't work - there is a fix
[06:05] <mek8630> Or how do you manually install drivers for usb devices?
[06:05] <anthony> i have a problem i you will make Ubuntu 10.04 show all the ICON in the NOTIFICATION area because i don't see any icon.. pls help me
[06:05] <kathe> goodmami, np, seen a lot of that one lately, only thing is if bios is crap, somepeople get stuck
[06:05] <ZykoticK9> Mirshe, see my message above
[06:06] <jack_> prince_jammys: That might be the problem, but when I set my computer down, I set it on a towel (don't ask why).
[06:06] <goodmami> kathe: yeah, it's been bothering me for a while, but i could not find a bug report to subscribe to
[06:06] <prince_jammys> now i have to ask why
[06:06] <Mirshe> thanks, ZykoticK9, working on that right now
[06:06] <goodmami> kathe: i'll try your advice and hope it is fixed
[06:07] <mek8630> Does anyone in here know how to manually install device drivers?
[06:07] <theadmin> anthony: Is the Notification Area applet there? Reset your panels.
[06:07] <theadmin> ubottu: resetpanels | anthony
[06:07] <Ivunche> some chilean?
[06:07] <jack_> prince_jammys: I set the computer on my desk chair which is very uncomfortable.  This is why I put towels on it.
[06:08] <prince_jammys> jack_: i really don't know what effect that might have :)
[06:08] <prince_jammys> Ivunche: why? you want support in Spanish?
[06:08] <jack_> prince_jammys: I'm sorry.  I didn't know if that might absorb heat or something.
[06:09] <prince_jammys> jack_: time to experiment :)
[06:09] <kathe> alright it's late for me
[06:09] <kathe> you all have a good night
[06:09] <greenjon> prince_jammys: what kind of computer are you talking about setting on towels?
[06:09] <greenjon> kathe: night :)
[06:09] <Ivunche> not only wanted to speak Spanish
[06:09] <prince_jammys> greenjon: 'tis not I.
[06:10] <DolleBertus> nederland/englisH?

[06:11] <prince_jammys> fantastic. try #ubuntu-offtopic , or #ubuntu-intoxicated
[06:11] <theadmin> DolleBertus: Well, what is the problem!?
[06:11] <coz_> DolleBertus,  I think you meant  "I am quite goobered right now"   this is a family channel :)
[06:11] <DolleBertus> yeah im family
[06:11] <DolleBertus> wait i'll go private
[06:11] <theadmin> ...what the heck.
[06:12] <greenjon> jack_: i see. what issue are you having?
[06:12] <prince_jammys> overheating
[06:12] <jack_> greenjon: what he said
[06:12] <greenjon> jack_: putting it on towels definitely won't help :P
[06:13] <prince_jammys> maybe in an oven?
[06:13] <greenjon> jack_: need to have it raised a bit. maybe try getting a stand for it
[06:13] <prince_jammys> jack_: try leaving ample space for air to circulate
[06:13] <greenjon> prince_jammys: exactly
[06:13] <jack_> prince_jammys: not a bad idea
[06:14] <prince_jammys> well, you got acquainted with the world of logs
[06:14] <prince_jammys> sadly
[06:14] <greenjon> jack_: i've had that issue with 3 laptops i've owned and 2 netbooks. all of them i've either used a stand with (one i can put in my lap) or some fan made for them to put in my lap if not using both stand and fan together :D
[06:15] <anthony> i have a problem i can't shutdown my Ubuntu 10.04 but i can restart it can any one help me i don't know what to do. pls help me....
[06:16] <jack_> i am going to try burning the dvd again, but this time i'm turning my fan on high and putting it on an open table
[06:16] <theadmin> anthony: Do any of these commands work? "sudo shutdown -h now", "sudo poweroff", "sudo init 0"
[06:16] <jack_> if i get a chance i'll meet up later
[06:16] <explodingzebras> hi
[06:17] <explodingzebras> yes sudo shutdown -h works
[06:17] <prince_jammys> i doubt you'll get to try the second one
[06:17] <explodingzebras> as long as u follow it up with a time like 'now'
[06:17] <theadmin> explodingzebras: That question wasn't directed to you
[06:17] <anthony> it does not shutdown my computer but it just make my computer log for a long time and does not shutdown
[06:17] <Molathor> i'm trying to edit a dll file using ghex, now that i've found the proper offset, it won't let me edit the hexadecimal - anyone know why?
[06:17] <greenjon> jack_: okay. try looking at walmart or somewhere for stands/fans sometime. well worth it and can save you having to buy a laptop ;)
[06:18] <greenjon> anyways, bbiab
[06:18] <Molathor> even tried running ghex as admin just in case
[06:18] <crabgrass> can mv recurse?
[06:19] <Gnea> crabgrass: yes.
[06:19] <santhu> hi
[06:19] <Molathor> anyone familiar with ghex?
[06:19] <Gnea> crabgrass: by default, it does
[06:19] <crabgrass> ah.
[06:19] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: when you mv a directory, you move it and all its contents.
[06:19] <explodingzebras> i wish someone would wake up the deluge chat ppl....
[06:20] <Gnea> "I'm terribly sorry to awaken you, but we have explodingzebras..."
[06:20] <theadmin> Gnea: lol
[06:20] <crabgrass> so `mv *.jpg test` would move all jpgs in any dir into test?
[06:20] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: no
[06:21] <explodingzebras> lol theres 60 ppl in #deluge
[06:21] <crabgrass> mr _r
[06:21] <theadmin> crabgrass: No. It would move all jpegs from current dir into test
[06:21] <jack_> greenjon: i might have a stand in the basement somewhere, but I definitely won't buy another laptop just because this can't burn dvds
[06:21] <crabgrass> derp
[06:21] <crabgrass> mv -R
[06:21] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: no
[06:21] <crabgrass> oh.
[06:21] <Gnea> crabgrass: no, only the jpgs in the current directory. by default, it will only recurse when mv'ing *everything
[06:21] <crabgrass> oh bummer.
[06:21] <Gnea> crabgrass: but...
[06:21] <theadmin> crabgrass: find . -iname '*.jpg' -exec mv '{}' /path/to/directory/ \;
[06:21] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: your question isn't so much about mv, but about globs (*.jpg), and *.jpg isn't recursive
[06:21] <Gnea> ^^ that
[06:21] <jrtayloriv> I just updated to 10.04, and then installed the kubuntu-desktop package, but when GDM loads up, there is no "Sessions" dropdown for me to select KDE from. Do I have to enable this somewhere in 10.03?
[06:22] <jrtayloriv> s/10.03/10.04/
[06:22] <theadmin> crabgrass: This moves all jpegs from current dir to /path/to/directory/
[06:22] <crabgrass> theadmin: thanks prince_jammys: yeah, there's still a bunch i need to learn
[06:22] <MikeChelen> anyone know a good keyboard-to-piano program?
[06:22] <theadmin> crabgrass: (including subfolders)
[06:22] <Gnea> MikeChelen: a what program?
[06:23] <theadmin> Gnea: You know, those musical keyboard thingies
[06:23] <crabgrass> good lord, that was fast
[06:23] <MikeChelen> Gnea, piano midi player that uses computer keyboard
[06:23] <crabgrass> theadmin: that's a damned elegant solution dude, thank you very much
[06:23] <crabgrass> gonna save that one
[06:24] <Gnea> MikeChelen: hrm, do you mean to control a music-keyboard that's connected to the computer via midi cable with the computer-keyboard?
[06:24] <theadmin> crabgrass: GNU find is powerful
[06:24] <crabgrass> theadmin: yeah it is
[06:25] <bushy_halp> hey
[06:25] <greezmunkey> theadmin: off the top, do you know if 'locate' takes those arguements as well?
[06:25] <jack_> Have a good night!
[06:25] <theadmin> greezmunkey: It doesn't
[06:25] <bushy_halp> who knows about dual booting
[06:25] <bushy_halp> i need help
[06:25] <Gnea> MikeChelen: I just want to make sure so that we're not coming up with incorrect solutions :)
[06:25] <theadmin> bushy_halp: What exactly with?
[06:25] <bushy_halp> ive been working on it all day
[06:25] <gtoy> I can boot only if use nomodeset in the grub otherwise black screen..  now it in 800x600 with noise on the botom..
[06:25] <crabgrass> theadmin: the man page isn't too clean on -iname, can i do -iname '*.jpg,*.jpeg'?
[06:25] <Gnea> !dualboot | bushy_halp
[06:26] <bushy_halp> no
[06:26] <Gnea> crabgrass: -name could work too
[06:26] <MikeChelen> Gnea, meaning the user can play a virtual music keyboard using only the computer keyboard
[06:26] <prince_jammys> greezmunkey: locate works with a (possibly outdated) database; you wouldn't want to be -exec'ing stuff with it.
[06:26] <bushy_halp> i need to use virtual box,
[06:26] <crabgrass> Gnea: but that's case-sensative... right?
[06:26] <bushy_halp> and write to a partition
[06:26] <Gnea> MikeChelen: alright...
[06:26] <bushy_halp> so i need to take my 60 gb partition
[06:26] <greezmunkey> prince_jammys: no doubt :)
[06:26] <Gnea> crabgrass: indeed. but this can be worked around:  -name "*.[Jj][Pp][Gg]"
[06:26] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: -iname '*.jpg' -o -iname '*.jpeg'
[06:26] <theadmin> crabgrass: Unsure. Maybe you could use something like this insaneness: for f in '*.jpg' '*.jpeg' ; do find -iname $f blah blah ; done
[06:26] <bushy_halp> and make it a vdi file
[06:27] <bushy_halp> so it can install it on that
[06:27] <gichity> Hello all. When trying to install ubuntu from alternate DVD on hard disk i get a "Debootstrap error.. Failed to determine the codename for release". This happens after i have successfully partitioned and intending to install.. What is the problem?
[06:27] <bushy_halp> so i can then redo the config fine with my live cd.
[06:27] <greezmunkey> heh LAMP server on Ubuntu ~= 15 min...M$ ~= 2.5 hours...
[06:27] <bushy_halp> someone that can help pm me
[06:27] <bushy_halp> im really frusterated
[06:27] <crabgrass> Gnea: theadmin: prince_jammys: now you guys are busting out all kinds of stuff, gimmie a sec to mull it over
[06:27] <Gnea> crabgrass: by all means, take your time
[06:28] <bushy_halp> anyone
[06:28] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: -o is -or ? alright.
[06:28] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: yep
[06:28] <prince_jammys> you need 'jpg OR jpeg'
[06:28] <crabgrass> right
[06:28] <MikeChelen> Gnea, what would that be called?
[06:29] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: GNU find supports fancy regex for that, but no need.
[06:29] <bushy_halp> can someone help
[06:29] <prince_jammys> just use -o
[06:29] <crabgrass> wait, from the manpage: "expr1 -o expr2 Or; expr2 is not evaluated if expr1 is true." that doesn't sound good.
[06:29] <bushy_halp> me install windows from ubuntu
[06:29] <bushy_halp> while ubuntu is loaded
[06:29] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: dude i'm deathly afraid of regexs
[06:29] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: it means 'the test passed, no need to check the other test'
[06:30] <jrtayloriv> I just updated to 10.04, and then installed the kubuntu-desktop package, but when GDM loads up, there is no "Sessions" dropdown for me to select KDE from. Do I have to enable this somewhere in 10.04?
[06:30] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: oh so its not like a || in c++, where the second one won't be evaluated?
[06:30] <theadmin> jrtayloriv: Select a user first, then it should appear... no?
[06:30] <crabgrass> and i suppose each file is treated as a seperate case, so it actually doesn't matter at all
[06:30] <crabgrass> nm
[06:30] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: what you might need is to stick it inside of \( \)
[06:30] <wildbat> bushy_halp, what you need?
[06:30] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: \( -iname foo -o -iname bar \) -exec ...
[06:31] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: ah, okay. lemmie see how it works
[06:31] <bushy_halp> i need to make a partition a vdi
[06:31] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: that should work. you need to escape the ( ) the same way you escape ';', so the shell doesn't touch those args.
[06:31] <bushy_halp> so that virtual box can install windows in
[06:31] <crabgrass> find . -iname '*.jpg' -o -iname '*.jpeg' -exec cp '{}' test/wut \; didn'
[06:31] <theadmin> bushy_halp: I think people in #virtualbox can help somewhat
[06:31] <crabgrass> didn't work at all lol
[06:31] <banker247>  is there a way to do a chmod 777 for an entire directory?
[06:31] <jrtayloriv> theadmin, doh! Yes it does. Thank you.
[06:32] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: \( \)
[06:32] <theadmin> banker247: chmod -R 777 yourfolder
[06:32] <banker247> nice -.. thx ;)
[06:32] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: it's telling me that i've used a binary operator with nothing before it.
[06:32] <wildbat> bushy_halp, let me guess you wanna mount the partition inside the vbox ?
[06:32] <Smeh> anyone able to provide any helpful pointers / anything re : getting the <IP_ADDRESS>0 linux cisco vpn client to compile on ubuntu 10.04?
[06:32] <monokrome> Does anyone know how to create a bootable device from an ISO
[06:33] <Smeh> i've fixed the CFLAGS complaint but no dice still
[06:33] <Gnea> MikeChelen: there is a program called fluidsynth that, I believe, acts like a bridge between a midi device and a plethora of gui programs to help distinguish midi data
[06:33] <theadmin> monokrome: Take a look at unetbootin and usb-creator...
[06:33] <_jesse_> monokrome: you can try netbootin
[06:33] <monokrome> I'm trying to mount with loopback, but it wont make the device bootable...
[06:33] <monokrome> theadmin: Trying to do a local mount
[06:33] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: find . \( -iname '*.jpg' -o -iname '*.jpeg \) -exec echo yourcommand {} \;
[06:33] <Gnea> MikeChelen: http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/fluidsynth/wiki/Applications  has a list of applications that fluidsynth utilizes, and I think some of them are already in the repository
[06:33] <bushy_halp> no one is there now
[06:34] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: with properly close single-quote :)
[06:34] <Gnea> MikeChelen: i think FluidGUI is what  you're after
[06:34] <crabgrass> haha
[06:34] <santhosh_Ejanthk> hi can any one tell me how to chat with developer
[06:34] <monokrome> sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop my.iso temp
[06:34] <wildbat> !vbox
[06:34] <MikeChelen> Gnea, sounds interesting, going to check that out
[06:35] <Gnea> MikeChelen: I've heard good things about MusE, too
[06:35] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: now it's telling me it was expecting to find a ) but didn't.
[06:35] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: typo!
[06:35] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: i'll just do what i normally do, copy-paste and use a lot of &&'s
[06:35] <prince_jammys> proofread
[06:35] <MikeChelen> Gnea, tried muse and liked it for other related features, maybe there is some way it can do this too
[06:35] <criminy> hello \o/
[06:36] <crabgrass> neeevermind, i got it. needed a space before \)
[06:36] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: put an echo before the command you'll exec so you get to see what would happen.
[06:36] <ZeiP> I just overwrote a lot of my /etc files with versions from an older computer, and I'm afraid it won't boot if I reboot without reverting the changes. I'm thinking of moving /etc to another name and recreating it. How can I recreate all the config files in /etc with apt?
[06:36] <charles_> Hello
[06:36] <theadmin> o_O
[06:37] <charles_> How's it going??
[06:37] <charles_> Is there a topic??
[06:37] <prince_jammys> ZeiP: very unhappily
[06:37] <corinth> What's the command to add a ppa again?
[06:37] <administrator> hei
[06:37] <Guest59509> boy
[06:37] <Guest59509> is
[06:37] <ZeiP> prince_jammys, there isn't a way to do that?
[06:38] <prince_jammys> ZeiP: not a way that i would prefer over reinstalling, and i'm pretty patient
[06:38] <charles_> This is a good OS
[06:38] <theadmin> corinth: add-apt-repository
[06:38] <Guest59509> where are you ?
[06:38] <ZeiP> prince_jammys, blah. Ok.
[06:38] <banker247> whats default root username for mysql?
[06:38] <theadmin> banker247: root
[06:38] <_jesse_> banker247: usually 'root'
[06:38] <edbian> charles_, yes.  Yes it is.
[06:38] <BGL-[2]> what's a popular video editor ?
[06:39] <prince_jammys> ZeiP: if you're adventurous, try to reboot (first get a live CD to get back in if you fail)
[06:39] <thune3> ZeiP: you could try running "debsums -ac" to see many of the files that changed
[06:39] <theadmin> BGL-[2]: Tons of em, what's wrong with built-in one?
[06:39] <crabgrass> BGL-[2]: cinelerra, but be prepared to spend a little while getting used to it
[06:39] <ZeiP> prince_jammys, is it at least possible to have a dump of all the packages installed with aptitude / synaptic so I can reinstall them easily?
[06:39] <Guest59509> why don't you use windows?
[06:39] <prince_jammys> !clone > ZeiP
[06:39] <theadmin> Guest59509: We don't want to, that's all.
[06:39] <BGL-[2]> theadmin: which built in one?
[06:39] <banker247> so i setup an apache and mysql server.. and all that got the /var/www/localhost yadda yada.. but whats it all for.. :)
[06:40] <theadmin> BGL-[2]: Err... Pitivo if I recall correctly, I removed it
[06:40] <banker247> just tried to install some CRM software and it made me setup all these servers ;). .i finally did it..
[06:40] <BGL-[2]> pitivi hmm i duno i guess i missed it
[06:40] <prince_jammys> ZeiP: use what the bot said, and save you home directory if you choose to reinstall
[06:40] <BGL-[2]> i'll check that out first
[06:40] <BGL-[2]> crab: thx for the other suggestion too
[06:40] <charles_> I wanted to do a reformat of my windows xp, but all I could do is a complete restore, using the HP recovery disks.  I don't have a stand alone copy of xp
[06:40] <thune3> !clone > thune3
[06:40] <crabgrass> theadmin: pitivi
[06:41] <crabgrass> !isThereAnEchoInHereOrIsItJustMe > ubottu
[06:41] <Archimend> How can I run minimal install CD from a partition ? I can run it by grub, but it wants CD
[06:41] <charles_> I heard of Ubuntu and decided to try it, and I like it
[06:41] <theadmin> Archimend: So you want to boot an ISO, basically?
[06:42] <prince_jammys> charles_: i'm afraid we have to ask you for your registration number, to see if you have a legit version of ubuntu.
[06:42] <crabgrass> theadmin: can i use -iname to exclude files? for instance, anything starting with foo. like... -iname !foo*
[06:42] <theadmin> prince_jammys: Bad joke...
[06:42] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: ! -iname 'foo*'
[06:42] <prince_jammys> theadmin: thanks!
[06:43] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: ah, had the ! in the wrong place. thanks again!
[06:43] <theadmin> prince_jammys: You know, there ARE people who think that a free OS is impossible
[06:43] <prince_jammys> methinks he/she/it knew i was kidding
[06:44] <ZeiP> prince_jammys, thanks. /home is on a different partition for this exact reason :P
[06:44] <prince_jammys> ZeiP: ah, good news.
[06:44] <prince_jammys> ZeiP: then i'd say to back up /etc, but i guess that doesn't apply to you :)
[06:44] <ZeiP> I'll back it up, but I don't think I can do anything with the backup... :D
[06:44] <Archimend> theadmin, I want to run installation, I can run it no problem by extracted iso to a partition. if I could boot iso from partition it shoud fix it I guess
[06:46] <gichity> Am trying to install ubuntustudio from an alternate DVD on hard disk. After i have successfully partitioned and intending to install ubuntustudio i get a "Debootstrap error.. Failed to determine the codename for release". What is the solution?
[06:47] <Guest59509> install windows
[06:47] <_jesse_> gichity: not to put you off, but there is a #ubuntustudio channel that might be more helpful :)
[06:47] <Guest59509> is the best solution
[06:47] <prince_jammys> 'apt-get install windows' ?
[06:47] <Guest59509> haha
[06:48] <edbian> prince_jammys, please, use aptitude
[06:48] <theadmin> somebody get the troll outta here
[06:48] <gichity> _jesse_: av bin there. no answer yet
[06:48] <prince_jammys> edbian: true, sorry. plus i missed sudo.
[06:48] <_jesse_> gichity: ah kk, just thought I'd suggest
[06:48] <edbian> prince_jammys, ha ha
[06:48] <crabgrass> psuedocode time; is it possible to do something like if ( exist(x_250) && exist(x_500) ) then rm x_250 ) in bash, where each x would be a *, but for the conditional they'd have to match
[06:49] <crabgrass> just noticed i'm getting duplicate files, but they're in different resolutions. i just want the highest-res one
[06:49] <crabgrass> *ones
[06:49] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: time for you to go to #bash and read the guide in the channel topic.
[06:49] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: alrightie then
[06:49] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: it's a very good channel, with a good guide.
[06:50] <crabgrass> i feel like i've leveled out of the newbie zone or something
[06:50] <crabgrass> haha
[06:50] <prince_jammys> don't expect anyone to answer the question though, you'd have to read about the basics
[06:50] <crabgrass> yeah, true story.
[06:50] <prince_jammys> /topic bash will show you a guide
[06:50] <edbian> crabgrass, Def.  Bash scripting is an awesome power once you're decent at it :)
[06:51] <crabgrass> edbian: i know enough to get my way around, but not enough to weild it yet
[06:51] <radikal> hey good night every body, i loss my sound  i can"t hear nothing and tje ststem is ok not mute

[06:55] <Smeh> i've fixed the CFLAGS complaint but no dice still
[06:55] <Lint01> any analogs of rhythmbox/banshee/exaile exist in Ubuntu?
[06:56] <prince_jammys> Lint01: huh?
[06:56] <radikal> ok, im thinking to resotr my ubuntu to frist time instalation  some body know how to due that or i need re-install ubuntu
[06:57] <hariom_> hi, I have recorded few files on my ubuntu system using a mike. But on playback it is not outputting any audio. When I play the same file on windows system, I can hear the sound. What can be problem?
[06:57] <marenostrum> Hello Dear Friends. We use # sign at the beginning of a line to uncomment it in some configuration files (hosts, in my case). What can I use to uncomment a group of lines? Is it possible to put something before and after that group of lines so system not to read them?
[06:57] <Jordan_U> Archimend: Use the mini.iso (netboot) instead.
[06:58] <prince_jammys> marenostrum: depends on the language. in config files, usually "no"
[06:58] <marenostrum> thanks
[06:58] <m3ga> booting lucid from grub and X doesn't start properly. is there a way to tell grub to tell linux not to start X?
[06:58] <hariom_> My files .wav files and they have size like 250KB for a 10 sec audio.
[06:59] <Squideshi> I shrunk my Ubuntu partition and now can't mount it. After attempting to mount, I ran "dmesg | tail" and saw "EXT4-fs (sda5): bad geometry: block count 5197568 exceeds size of device (5197464 blocks)". What does this mean?
[06:59] <_jesse_> marenostrum: you can use '#' to comment lines in /etc/hosts
[06:59] <Lint01> marenostrum, not in hosts
[07:00] <_jesse_> Lint01: there is definitely a comment in my hosts using a #
[07:00] <prince_jammys> man hosts: ''Text  from a "#" character until the end of the line is a comment, and is ignored.''
[07:00] <Lint01> _jesse_, it's line comment, he meant block comments
[07:00] <marenostrum> _jesse: Yes I use # to comment-out lines in /etc/hosts. I seek a similar way for more than one line.
[07:00] <_jesse_> Lint01: ah missed the 'groups' part
[07:00] <hariom_> can anybody help. Why I am not able to listen any audio using play command or vlc player. Same file plays on other system
[07:01] <marenostrum> Lint01: Thanks you. I'll comment-out them one by one.
[07:01] <_jesse_> marenostrum: no, but most editors make it pretty easy to comment/uncomment groups of lines
[07:01] <_jesse_> one-by-one
[07:02] <gichity> hariom_: do other audio applications work?
[07:02] <marenostrum> _jesse: Thank you very much. I'm a non-coder try to mimic coders! :-)
[07:02] <prince_jammys> vim: ESC v j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j : s/^/#/
[07:02] <banker247> how to provide read write access for all users to a specific file? is this recursvly?
[07:02] <hariom_> yea, I can listen youtube and other downloaded files
[07:02] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: you seem knoledgeable; know of any way to download images from a website? currently using httrack for it
[07:03] <hariom_> Only the files recorded by myself are not audible.
[07:03] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: wget URL ?
[07:03] <lipalm> hi, is there a doc somewhere that would explain how to setup an ICH9R raid array on lucid (no OS on the array)
[07:03] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: were you asking about mirroring earlier?
[07:03] <_jesse_> marenostrum: :)
[07:03] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: i tried that, but ended up getting about 800 robots.txt's for each image. i wasn't at all happy with wget.
[07:04] <crabgrass> and yeah, i was
[07:04] <_jesse_> banker247: if the file belongs to the users group you can do chmod g+rw file
[07:04] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: ah. i don't know wget's fancy features, end up having to read manual.
[07:04] <banker247> an entire folder
[07:04] <prince_jammys> crabgrass: (secret) you can cheat an bypass robots
[07:04] <gtoy> I can boot only if use nomodeset in the grub otherwise black screen..  now it in 800x600 with noise on the botom..
[07:04] <crabgrass> same here. -H seemed to be what i needed, but the whole process was just so damned painful and slow
[07:05] <gichity> harriom_: how are you recording? using ua soundcard?
[07:05] <crabgrass> prince_jammys: yeah, but that's not really the issue
[07:05] <banker247> _jesse_ basically what i'm trying to do i'm running vtigerCRM.. and i'm trying to make it so when i open it in my browser i can actually make accounts..
[07:05] <gichity> hariom_: how are you recording? using ua soundcard?
[07:05] <banker247> _jesse_ beacuse whats happening when i try to make anything in the program its just going to a blank page and saying done at the bottom
[07:06] <theadmin> Is there a way to make metacity tell me the size of a specific window?
[07:06] <hariom_> I have mike connected using sound recorder to record. I can hear the same file on my windows machine.
[07:06] <_jesse_> banker247: ah I'm not famaliar that program
[07:06] <_jesse_> banker247: you can do folders with chmod -R
[07:06] <_jesse_> to do recursive
[07:07] <banker247> i think its a serverside issue
[07:07] <Appl6> theadmin: In what units, output it where, and from a program or just by you clicking around the screen?
[07:07] <banker247> can't seem to write files
[07:07] <Lint01> any analogs of rhythmbox/banshee/exaile exist in Ubuntu?
[07:07] <gichity> hariom_: try to play the file using a different media player..
[07:07] <theadmin> Appl6: Pixels, to STDOUT (prefferably)
[07:08] <taiyal> is there any way to prune all of the "no installation candidate" apt entries in Ubuntu?
[07:08] <prince_jammys> theadmin: see if 'xwininfo' helps
[07:08] <taiyal> the Ubuntu repositories have quite a few (sagemath, dillo, etc)
[07:08] <theadmin> prince_jammys: Hey thanks
[07:08] <prince_jammys> theadmin: welcome
[07:09] <theadmin> Where can I find the "fixedsys" font for Ubuntu?
[07:09] <theadmin> I heard it is available
[07:10] <banker247> _jesse_ are you faimiliar with apache?
[07:10] <Appl6> theadmin: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/73087/x-gnome-how-to-measure-the-geometry-of-an-open-window
[07:10] <_jesse_> banker247: I can do basic configurations
[07:10] <banker247> _jesse_ how do i check if apache server has proper read permissions?
[07:11] <_jesse_> banker247: to a directory? you should chown the directory to whatever apache is running (usually www-data)
[07:11] <banker247> whats chown?
[07:11] <_jesse_> banker247: change owner
[07:11] <banker247> so i need to chown my /var/www/vtigercrm
[07:11] <theadmin> banker247: CHange OWNership
[07:11] <iIlL10oO> the boot screen splash of arch's , is so linuxly
[07:11] <banker247> whats the command?
[07:11] <theadmin> banker247: (sudo)? chown -R vtigercrm /var/www
[07:11] <prince_jammys> chown with care.
[07:12] <_jesse_> banker247: nah, so long as it's world readable you shouldn't have a problem, apache will need write permissions on certain directories within that one thoug likely
[07:12] <no-name> does wine run much better in 64 bit ubuntu?
[07:12] <Guest97480> hey, i've got internal bluetooth device on CQ40-504, it was detected on win7 but not on lucid. how do i use the device?
[07:12] <_jesse_> banker247: shouldn't need to own the whole diretocy though
[07:12] <banker247> i need to give apache full access of the directory i think
[07:12] <theadmin> no-name: I'd say worse.
[07:12] <no-name> ok
[07:12] <_jesse_> banker247: ah alright, if you say so... chown -R www-data:www-data direcotry
[07:12] <no-name> it sucks
[07:12] <theadmin> banker247: It'd better to be owned by user 'daemon' and group 'www-data', just give it world access.
[07:13] <no-name> i like ubuntu a lot better than windows , but i'm a gamer and linux is fail at games :(
[07:13] <_jesse_> mmm true theadmin has a good point
[07:13] <Lint01> no-name, use VM intead of WIne
[07:13] <_jesse_> banker247: just make sure the group has write permissions
[07:13] <banker247> theadmin ok.. so what do i type to give apahce access to /var/www/vtigercrm
[07:13] <theadmin> no-name: Wait till VALVe release Linux version of Source engine and game is on :D
[07:13] <no-name> Lint01: which one is best for games?
[07:13] <_jesse_> banker247: chown -R your_username:www-data directory
[07:14] <Lint01> or just install Windows for your games, it's unlikely the Wine will catch up anytime soon
[07:14] <Appl6> theadmin: http://fixedsys.moviecorner.de/?p=download&l=1
[07:14] <theadmin> banker247: Copy-paste this in: sudo chown -R $USER:www-data /var/www
[07:14] <theadmin> Appl6: Thanks
[07:14] <basncy> excuse me ,what does pseudoheader mean in UNIX Programing
[07:14] <prince_jammys> or add your user to www-data group
[07:14] <_jesse_> no-name: you'll need to dual boot for that wine no VM will be anywhere close to running games
[07:14] <_jesse_> *nor
[07:14] <theadmin> banker247: Do not replace $USER with anything :D It's a variable which has the current username
[07:14] <Lint01> no-name, I'd try vmware; because openbox has no 3d support despite all the lies in docs
[07:15] <no-name> Lint01: you mean virtualbox?
[07:15] <banker247> ok got it
[07:15] <Lint01> yeap
[07:15] <no-name> oh
[07:15] <_jesse_> it has *experimental* 3d support
[07:15] <no-name> someone told me he could run crysis in virtualbox
[07:15] <no-name> must have been a lie :P
[07:15] <_jesse_> ha no way
[07:16] <no-name> I tried to change the VRAM in vmware workstation 7 today
[07:16] <no-name> i used an option that you add to the vmx to change it and it wouldn't boot after that
[07:16] <Eugene89> Hello guys, I'm using a python script involving ncftp and cron to backup some sql databases automatically, but i find that the filename, when copied over to the ftp, changes to things like M6D0V0~0.GZ
[07:16] <no-name> set it to 128mb, then 64mb, no-go
[07:16] <Eugene89> any idea on how to fix that?
[07:17] <no-name> even after I got rid of the line in the vmx file it wouldn't boot, strangely enough
[07:17] <no-name> Lint01: do you know how to change the amount of RAM for the vmware graphics card?
[07:17] <Lint01> no
[07:18] <Guest97480> hey, i've got internal bluetooth device on CQ40-504, it was detected on win7 but not on lucid. how do i use the device?
[07:19] <_jesse_> !bluetooth > Guest97480
[07:20] <SandGorgon> anybody having trouble with Windows 7 booting and corrupting Grub installs ? Supergrub's page recommends removing stage1.5
[07:20] <_jesse_> SandGorgon: windows usually overwrites grub if you install it, but you can get it back with live CD
[07:20] <_jesse_> SandGorgon: least that's my experience
[07:21] <theadmin> yeah, windows is stupid enough to overwrite grub
[07:21] <Guest97480> jesse, its not dell its compaq
[07:21] <_jesse_> Guest97480: ?
[07:21] <banker247> is there a way to check what permissions a folder has?
[07:21] <_jesse_> ls -l
[07:21] <_jesse_> banker247: ^
[07:21] <theadmin> banker247: ls -l | grep yourfolder
[07:21] <theadmin> Or rather...
[07:22] <prince_jammys> ls -ld TheDirectory
[07:22] <Guest97480> the bluetooth module, its compaq. the page on ubottu u gave they refer to dell
[07:22] <SandGorgon> theadmin,  _jesse_, no thasts not what I meant .. that's the easy part. Windows 7 is _already_ installed.. install ubuntu on top and still Windows 7 corrupts grub http://www.supergrubdisk.org/wiki/WindowsErasesGrub
[07:22] <banker247> drwxrwxrwx 28 root www-data 4096 2010-06-11 00:54 vtigercrm
[07:22] <theadmin> banker247: That's 777
[07:22] <banker247> its not showing that www.data has access?
[07:22] <_jesse_> banker247: well that is 777 so *everyone* can read/write/execute
[07:22] <banker247> so www.data can read it?
[07:22] <theadmin> banker247: Yes, it's ugorwx
[07:22] <prince_jammys> my grandma can read it
[07:23] <_jesse_> prince_jammys: lmao
[07:23] <prince_jammys> 777 rarely needed
[07:23] <greezmunkey> without his glasses even :)
[07:23] <_jesse_> *his*? the plot thickens...
[07:23] <banker247> tryin to figure out why i'm just getting blank pages when i try to create things in my CRM
[07:23] <prince_jammys> my grandma is a woman. well, was.
[07:23] <prince_jammys> were she living, she could read it.
[07:23] <pepePlu> for shell scripters, i have a list of more than 30k records, or text file with 30000 lines, each line has a record its fields seperated with tabs, now i want to go through each line take the data and insert text between them... how do i go about that
[07:23] <greezmunkey> thought I read grandpa, my respects, sorry.
[07:23] <prince_jammys> it's all good.
[07:24] <greezmunkey> I need glasses :)
[07:24] <Andorin> Does anyone know whether it's possible to change Debian's libnotify to look and function like Ubuntu's?
[07:24] <_jesse_> banker247: it's likely a problem with the CRM not file permissions
[07:25] <banker247> or the configuration of my server..
[07:25] <prince_jammys> Andorin: a question that'll get you into irc channel limbo
[07:25] <prince_jammys> Andorin: ha, i see it in #debian too :)
[07:25] <Andorin> prince_jammys: Mmhmm
[07:26] <Andorin> I really like Ubuntu's libnotify and really hate Debian's. =/
[07:26] <gabriel_> Hola
[07:27] <Eugene89> if i really wanna be good at linux, really understand it indepth and compile stuff by myself, where should i start?
[07:28] <Dracco> Eugene89, try www.ss64.com
[07:28] <Eugene89> sick and tired of knowing bits and pieces without really knowing it
[07:28]  * ActionParsnip is a zombie
[07:28] <prince_jammys> Eugene89: begin by reading a generalized guide, maybe from the internet, or debian sysadmin guide (installable through APT), or something like rutebook (also APT)
[07:28] <greezmunkey> ActionParsnip: brain eater??
[07:28] <bazhang> !manual | Eugene89 check this
[07:28] <xsist10> Eugene89: Probably understanding the layout of linux's file structure -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> Greezmunky: just tired
[07:29] <Dracco> Guys, I've got a question. I was wondering if it is possible to shutdown linux after for example 5 seconds? Important is that I want seconds delay, not minutes
[07:29] <Andorin> prince_jammys: But what did you mean by "IRC limbo"?
[07:29] <Jordan_U> SandGorgon: Do you have a Dell?
[07:29] <prince_jammys> Andorin: i mean people in #debian will direct you to #ubuntu and vice-versa. you'll be in channel limbo.
[07:29] <Eugene89> xsist10: that really helps! thanks!
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> Dracco: shutdown -h +5 (check man shutdown for exact command but its like that)
[07:30] <Eugene89> prince_jammys: will read the debian sysadmin guide
[07:30] <Dracco> +5 will shutdown in 5 minutes
[07:30] <ActionParsnip> Dracco: will require sudo too
[07:30] <Dracco> I want seconds
[07:30] <prince_jammys> Eugene89: get 'em all
[07:30] <ActionParsnip> Dracco: sleep 5; sudo shutdown -h now
[07:30] <Eugene89> all?
[07:30] <Andorin> prince_jammys: D:
[07:30] <banker247> how to check current php version?
[07:30] <Jordan_U> SandGorgon: The real solution is to remove the horribly broken software that's overwriting grub (likely "Dell DataSafe" but it could be something else)
[07:31] <Dracco> and is it possible to break that 5 seconds? so i can stop shutting down?
[07:31] <prince_jammys> Eugene89: the sysadmin thing, rutebook (so-so general book about linux), and some URLs others sent you.
[07:31] <ActionParsnip> Banker247: dpkg -l | grep php ,maybe
[07:31] <ActionParsnip> Dracco: sure, press ctrl+c
[07:31] <Eugene89> prince_jammys: I will. Thank you
[07:31] <Dracco> and if im not in terminal? :P
[07:31] <prince_jammys> welcome
[07:31] <ActionParsnip> Dracco: but if you are too late its going down
[07:32] <jungli> ubantards
[07:32] <banker247> if i need to downgrade from php 5.3 to php 5.2 whats the easiest way to do it without screwing anything up?
[07:32] <Dracco> coz i wanted to put 5 seconds delay on powering off when i press power button
[07:32] <prince_jammys> jungli: /j #ubantu
[07:32] <ActionParsnip> Dracco: not sure there mate, you could ssh in and kill the process maybe. Not sure
[07:32] <robberhater> Running Ubuntu 8.04 Server LTS here
[07:32] <jungli> hi prince_jammys
[07:32] <prince_jammys> hello
[07:32] <indus> Dracco, maybe a setting in bios where time can be increased?
[07:32] <robberhater> I can't seem to start up a Fedora 12 PV guest here
[07:32] <jungli> hi indus bhiaya
[07:33] <indus> namaste
[07:33] <robberhater> I'm getting this error every time I attempt to start up the guest: Error: (2, 'Invalid kernel', 'xc_dom_find_loader: no loader found\n')
[07:33] <trupheenix> hi does anyone know how to disable public key authentication on openssh-server? i want to use password login
[07:33] <jungli> indus: kaha the itne din ?
[07:33] <Dracco> i wanted something more like command for shortcut
[07:33] <xsist10> Dracco:  This might work: shutdown -c
[07:33] <_jesse_> Dracco: mine usually requites me to hold it in for so long, might be a BIOS setting as indus suggests
[07:33] <Charbel> i installed java and i'm trying to connect to irc chat network from web but i got always this message "Sorry, but you need a Java 1.1.x enabled browser to use Beirut Chat."
[07:33] <indus> jungli, how can we help you
[07:33] <Dracco> but anyway thanks :)
[07:33] <bazhang> jungli, that's not appropriate here
[07:33] <robberhater> Fedora 12 for a fact does have a pv_ops kernel that's basically a domU
[07:33] <jungli> indus: sup
[07:33] <_jesse_> Dracco: so when you shutdown from within ubuntu, not a hard shutdown?
[07:33] <Dracco> xsist10, i want to break sleep5; shutdown
[07:33] <robberhater> can somebody here explain what I should do to get Ubuntu to boot the FC12 PV Guest?
[07:34] <ActionParsnip> Charbel: if you websearch for java tester, does it show you running java ok?
[07:34] <Dracco> _jesse_, i want to break 5 seconds delay powerdown, not hard power off :P
[07:34] <_jesse_> Dracco: ah you confused me with the "when you press the power button" :P
[07:34] <Dracco> anyway, ill need to work on a script maybe, simple commands wont work here
[07:34] <ActionParsnip> Robberhater: i'd ask in #fedora as the guest is the OS having the issue
[07:34] <xsist10> Dracco:  well if you put it in a bash script, you could potentially kill the scripts thread?
[07:34] <jungli> indus: how you doing
[07:34] <indus> jungli, good thanks
[07:34] <Charbel> ActionParsnip, how ?
[07:34] <_jesse_> Dracco: doesn't ubuntu give you a 30s buffer anyway?
[07:34] <banker247> whats the best way to downgrade php 5.3 to php 5.2?
[07:35] <bazhang> jungli, do you have a ubuntu support question?
[07:35] <Dracco> xsist10, thats what ill do ;)
[07:35] <jungli> indus: pm
[07:35] <Dracco> _jesse_, ubuntu gives only minutes delay, so minimum is 0 or 1
[07:35] <theadmin> banker247: Downgrading is not supported. However, you can compile 5.2 from source.
[07:35] <indus> jungli, no random chats here, please ask a question if you have
[07:35] <trupheenix> hi does anyone know how to disable public key authentication on openssh-server? i want to use password login
[07:35] <ActionParsnip> Charbel: use a websearch engine and find: java tester ,the top few links will be able to tell you if your java is working ok
[07:35] <_jesse_> Dracco: I mean when I click the power symbol and click "shutdown" it gives me an optino to abort
[07:36] <Charbel> ok ActionParsnip thx
[07:36] <ActionParsnip> trupheenix: look in /etc/ssh/sshd_config (I think its that file).
[07:36] <Dracco> _jesse_, yes, but my xubuntu doesnt even show popup msg with options shutdown, restart, logout etc when i press power button >.<
[07:36] <rtronk> how do i add a user, /usr/sbin/useradd with a home directory /home/username and a password?
[07:36] <_jesse_> Dracco: ah 'xubuntu', sorry, I didn't know what distro you were running
[07:36] <trupheenix> ActionParsnip, yea i am looking at it but i can't understand which option should i disable. nothing conclusive online either.
[07:36] <rtronk> (command line)
[07:36] <rtronk> !useradd
[07:36] <lipalm> anybody running a raid array off an ICH9R based board ?
[07:37] <x_> hi. i am on lucid. how do i read my cpu info ... temperature, freq and voltage?
[07:37] <prince_jammys> rtronk: use 'adduser'
[07:37] <Dracco> _jesse_, ill just work on a script then :)
[07:37] <Dracco> thanks all for help, gotta run, cya and have a nice day ;)
[07:37] <thune3> Dracco: sleep 5s && shutdown might be breakable
[07:37] <prince_jammys> rtronk: see the man page. the usage is fairly simple, as simple as 'sudo adduser somedude'
[07:37] <jungli> bazhang: sup
[07:37] <Dracco> thune3, but not with simple console command ;)
[07:37] <Dracco> cya all :P
[07:37] <uo3273-fvarklb> Hello.  I need some help from someone who is knowledgeable about "viruses" detected by KlamAV.  The following thread on Ubuntu forums describes my situation exactly: http://wwww.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9170734
[07:38] <bazhang> jungli, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic NOT here
[07:38] <theadmin> x_: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[07:38] <uo3273-fvarklb> Sorry, it's http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9170734
[07:38] <banker247> are many people not upgrading to php 5.3 and sticking with 5.2?
[07:39] <prince_jammys> banker247: you may want to ask at #php
[07:39] <x_> theadmin, ty. i cannot find the temperature and voltage in the output
[07:39] <theadmin> x_: Well yeah :/
[07:39] <theadmin> x_: I think you need lmsensors or whaddayacallit for that
[07:39] <uo3273-fvarklb> theadmin: Could you help me?  Did you see the link I posted?  I've talked to you before ...
[07:39] <bazhang> !sensors
[07:40] <x_> i have installed lm_sensors ... i now want to read the temp and voltage
[07:40] <indus> lm sensors can be very inaccurate because the mobo sensors are crap mostly
[07:40] <ActionParsnip> trupheenix: just trying to get a guide
[07:40] <trupheenix> ActionParsnip, me too
[07:40] <theadmin> uo3273-fvarklb: Sorry I am freakin' tired now and can't really help on serious problems :D

[07:40] <banker247> oops
[07:40] <uo3273-fvarklb> theadmin: That's OK - I understand.

[07:41] <uo3273-fvarklb> Can anyone else help me understand this better?: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9170734
[07:41] <indus> x_, anyways, once you install lm-sensors, type sensord in terminal and answer yes / no
[07:41] <ActionParsnip> trupheenix: http://www.debuntu.org/ssh-key-based-authentication-p2
[07:41] <indus> x_, then restart and type 'sensors' and it will give output
[07:41] <x_> ok sensors tells me core0 and core1 temp ... lol but i am on a single core machine?
[07:41] <indus> x_, but it all depends on mobo sensor which is wrong quite a few times
[07:42] <ActionParsnip> trupheenix: commaent out the lines it mentions then run the reload command. You should now be asked for password
[07:42] <khider> Hello all, I bought a blank terrabyte hard drive and a casing to use as an external drive. I formatted it and put in a file system--but I do not have write ownership permissions to make folders and back stuff up. What should I do?
[07:42] <uo3273-fvarklb> Is anyone knowledgeable about KlamAV - and the bugs/errors it has had?
[07:42] <KB1JWQ> khider: What filesystems?
[07:42] <genewitch> is there an apt-find program?
[07:42] <KB1JWQ> !tell uo3273-fvarklb anyone
[07:42] <banker247> theadmin what'd it do?
[07:42] <x_> indus, my core0 temp is 42 C and my core1 temp is 49 C .. i am guessing core0 is actually my hdd temp?
[07:42] <KB1JWQ> !anyone | uo3273-fvarklb
[07:42] <theadmin> genewitch: apt-cache search query
[07:42] <khider> KB1JWQ:I tried ext 3 and ext 4
[07:43] <KB1JWQ> khider: Mount them read/write?
[07:43] <indus> x_, no its the cpu core and i assume you have a dual or 4 core
[07:43] <trupheenix> ActionParsnip, ok but i keeping this Permission denied (publickey).
[07:43] <khider> KB1JWQ: It says the device is busy
[07:43] <theadmin> banker247: It'd replace all Lucid sources with Karmic and put it in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/karmic, no?
[07:43] <banker247> i guess
[07:43] <indus> x_, it reports temp of each core so core 0, core 1 , core 2 etc ,
[07:43] <banker247> its for downgrading
[07:43] <KB1JWQ> khider: Okay, forcibly unmount it, and mount it read write.
[07:43] <genewitch> theadmin: I know, thanks, but that doesn't answer my question
[07:43] <indus> x_, dont rely on it too much man, its junk
[07:43] <x_> ty indus ... now to find out the voltage my cpu is runnning at
[07:44] <indus> x_, check bios for voltages
[07:44] <theadmin> genewitch: It does what you described, finds packages in apt
[07:44] <khider> KB1JWQ: Dolphin always pops up and identifies it and says it is already mounted
[07:44] <indus> x_, its better
[07:44] <indus> x_, lm-sensors give too many wrong outputs
[07:44] <uo3273-fvarklb> When I ran a scan on KlamAV  - it brought up all these Encrypted.ZIP files in my /usr/lib directory.  Are these false positives or a Windows virus - or nothing at all?
[07:44] <x_> yah .. i am trying to get cpu scaling to work ... it works on tthe freq ... but i want to check my undervolt success
[07:44] <khider> KB1JWQ: Maybe I did not format it correctly
[07:44] <theadmin> banker247: It won't downgrade like that, APT preffers higher versions to older ones
[07:44] <indus> x_, ah i too have undervolted my x3
[07:44] <theadmin> banker247: You'll just end up breakin it
[07:44] <ActionParsnip> trupheenix: could try: sudo apt-get --purge remove openssh-server; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; sudo apt-get install openssh-server ,see if that gives you vanilla settings
[07:44] <x_> any way to use lm-sensors to report voltage?
[07:45] <indus> x_, yes it reports all things
[07:45] <ActionParsnip> !downgrade | banker247
[07:45] <indus> x_, just install and run the steps i said
[07:45] <trupheenix> ActionParsnip, I am on Amazon EC2 :( can't remove ssh server. then i won't be able to access.
[07:45] <x_> ok indus  ... i tried sensors .. will now run sensorsd
[07:45] <banker247> i'm downgrading my php
[07:45] <KB1JWQ> uo3273-fvarklb: Have an example of a file it's alerting on?
[07:45] <banker247> from 5.3 to 5.2
[07:45] <indus> x_, just 'sensord'
[07:45] <ActionParsnip> trupheenix: I don't know what that is
[07:45] <x_> oh ok
[07:46] <khider> KB1JWQ: Now I do not even have permission to format it
[07:46] <theadmin> banker247: You can't downgrade. You need to explicitly just install an older version
[07:46] <banker247> theadmin ok how do i undo that last command?
[07:46] <khider> KB1JWQ: There is a lock icon on partition manager and it will not let me do anything
[07:46] <banker247> sed s/lucid/karmic/g /etc/apt/sources.list | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/karmic.list
[07:46] <banker247> this thing whatever it did
[07:46] <theadmin> banker247: According to what I saw, "rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/karmic.list" should do it
[07:46] <prince_jammys> banker247: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/karmic.list
[07:47] <uo3273-fvarklb> KB1JWQ: Yeah - just give me a second ...
[07:47] <prince_jammys> ditto
[07:47] <Eugene89> prince_jammsys: Rute Book seems awesome! Thanks!
[07:47] <theadmin> banker247: Then, sudo apt-get install php5~5.2 I guess
[07:47] <prince_jammys> Eugene89: cool.
[07:47] <mcl0vin> howdy folks
[07:47] <banker247> E: Couldn't find package php5~5.2
[07:47] <ActionParsnip> Eugene89: you'll learn more just using the OS than any book can show you
[07:47] <khider> Does anyone know how to format an external drive? I am using partition manager and so far I have permission to do  nothing
[07:47] <prince_jammys> Eugene89: the bash guide in it kinda sucks. for that, see the guide in the #bash irc channel topic.
[07:47] <theadmin> banker247: I forgot how to specify the version :/
[07:48] <x_> indus, i am on lucid ... i installed lm-sensors from the repo .. i dont think it installed sensord
[07:48] <khider> Partition manager identifies it,  but I cannot do anything to the drive
[07:48] <Eugene89> btw, anybody knows why when i copy a file to a ftp server using ncftp, the filename changes to a short version like M9THL5~Y.GZ?
[07:48] <x_> i have sensors ... and sensors-detect
[07:49] <xsist10> Eugene89: sounds like it's trying to make it DOS safe (8 char files names). Maybe a configuration issue?
[07:49] <ActionParsnip> khider: gksudo gparted ,should do it. You can also use: sudo fdisk /dev/disknamehere and make the partiton there (replace disknamehere with the disks actual name. sudo fdisk -l ,will show the names of your disks)
[07:49] <Eugene89> ActionParsnip: Yeah, i have been using the OS pretty much, got 2 redhat servers running as webservers for some sql databases. Managed to setup simple backup cron, raid and stuff, but I feel that I'm walking around blind lol
[07:50] <khider> ActionParsnip: What file system should I use? BSD? DOS? I don't get many options...
[07:50] <ActionParsnip> Khider: is the device going to be used in windows systems?
[07:50] <uo3273-fvarklb> KB1JWQ: OK - here is an example: /usr/lib/openoffice/basis3.1/program/libpackage2.so (name of file), Encrypted.ZIP (name of the problem)
[07:50] <Jimmio> Hey all. I installed kubuntu-desktop on top of ubuntu-desktop. Changed the startup image.. changed the cursor.. can't change it back. Any idea?
[07:50] <happosade> Hello. I am now building (S)FTP-server with RAID5. How to get those FTP-login-files into RAID-state?
[07:50] <khider> ActionParsnip: No, I just want to use it as a drive to  back up files
[07:51] <SandGorgon> Jordan_U, I think ur suggestion about Dell Datasafe worked. let me try it a couple more times just to be sure though.
[07:51] <khider> ActionParsnip: But there is a drop file that gives me a very limited range of choices
[07:51] <thune3> uo3273-fvarklb: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/88546 post by Cameron W says that there is an option to mark encrypted zip files as viruses. Search http://www.clamav.net/doc/latest/man/clamscan.1.in for encrypted to see option [i'm not excactly sure where you set this option]
[07:51] <banker247> root@banker247:~# apt-get install php5=5.2.1
[07:51] <banker247> sais the version wasn't found
[07:51] <Eugene89> xsist10: thanks. but one of the files copy over as fs-i-11-06-2010-14h01m01s.tar.gz, the rest uses weird filenames. i'm using a python scriptas a cronjob to backup my sql databases on a regular basis
[07:51] <Charbel> ActionParsnip, test results >>> JavaScript   IS WORKING   in your web browser | Your web browser supports JavaScript version 1.8 | Your web browser is Firefox version 3.6.3
[07:51] <x_> ok i ran sensors-detect and it found many sensors ... but i cannot see any voltage reading in my 'sensors' o/p
[07:52] <Jimmio> Also, what package was in 9.10 that isn't here anymore that allowed right click Encrypt/Decrypt of files?
[07:52] <ActionParsnip> Charbel: cool
[07:52] <dukz> hi guys, is there anyway i can benchmark my disk through the terminal? Just two figures i Need, random writes and read
[07:52] <khider> For a back up drive, should I use extended or primary, and what file system, ext 2, 3, or 4?
[07:52] <ActionParsnip> Khider: this shows how to setup a disk in commandline. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?chap=4&part=1
[07:53]  * gtoy waits for maverick...
[07:53] <x_> indus, any ideas on cpu voltage ?
[07:53] <ActionParsnip> Khider: you will use 1 big primary partition
[07:53] <Charbel> ActionParsnip, ok but i still can't open irc chat from firefox
[07:54] <ActionParsnip> Khider: use ext3 or ext4. Ext2 isn't really suitable
[07:54] <indus> x_, no , once you run the sensorsd command, restart system after you answered all questions
[07:54] <indus> x_, then type 'sensors' in terminal and it will list all things
[07:54] <ActionParsnip> Charbel: not sure there dude. Maybe it'll work now after you tested it (worth a try)
[07:54] <x_> ok ty
[07:55] <Appl6> khider: I don't know why people are assuming that "Device is busy" means that you didn't format your hard drive correctly.  To me, that seems very unlikely to be the cause.
[07:55] <Charbel> ok thx for help ActionParsnip
[07:55] <Im0> 10.04.1 installed gnokii 0.6.28 (universe/comm) with "apt-get install gnokii".  Apparently gnokii has a later version and is available in universe: http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gnokii/ . Shouldn't "apt-get upgrade" upgrade this package to 0.6.29? Using default /etc/apt/source.list.  Not sure why apt-get isn't seeing the 0.6.29 version.
[07:55] <banker247> anyone know how to easily downgrade from php 5.3 to 5.2 without breaking anything
[07:56] <uo3273-fvarklb> thune3: OK.  Are you sure they aren't real viruses?  What is an encrypted ZIP file typical for (i.e. what is it's purpose)?
[07:56] <Appl6> khider: Where is your external hard drive mounted?
[07:56] <khider> ActionParsnip: How do i get read and write permissions once the thing is formatted?
[07:56] <flip_> hey me n my buddy have same problem in ubuntu our alsa isnt loading module or something i have a speaker with 2 lines next to it volume is all the way up and is on speakers aswell
[07:56] <khider> Appl6: /dev/sdg
[07:56] <ActionParsnip> Khider: that's determined when you mount it.
[07:57] <Flannel> Im0: Thats likely in -proposed, the newest version in the repos is 0.6.28 currently
[07:57] <khider> ActionParsnip: Yeah, but when i mount it, it usually gives me permission to read and that is it
[07:57] <ActionParsnip> Khider: usually the gnome automount thing sorts it ok but you may have to manually mount it. Cross that bridge when the time comes
[07:57] <uo3273-fvarklb> thune3: Did you see my reply?
[07:57] <Appl6> khider: Could you pastebin the output of "sudo fdisk -l" and "mount -l" please?
[07:58] <flip_> hey me n my buddy have same problem in ubuntu our alsa isnt loading module or something i have a speaker with 2 lines next to it volume is all the way up and is on speakers aswell..... any one?
[07:58] <flip_> i am on 10
[07:58] <Im0> Flannel: Thanks.  I'm a bit confused about it being in: http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gnokii/
[07:58] <KB1JWQ> uo3273-fvarklb: Must be a signature mismatch.
[07:59] <ActionParsnip> flip_: if you run: sudo lshw -C sound ,websearch for the product line for guides
[07:59] <uo3273-fvarklb> KB1JWQ: ???  What is that?  And how did you come to this conclusion?
[08:00] <thune3> uo3273-fvarklb: it is just a section that clam knows that it can't read. it is an encrypted collection of stuff. the option is for Clam to warn you, since it can't tell you if it is a problem or not. it is unlikely a problem.
[08:00] <khider> Appl6: http://pastebin.ca/1880969
[08:01] <Flannel> Im0: Ah, actually, it looks like that's the Maverick version.  It may also be in lucid-proposed, I haven't checked yet
[08:01] <Appl6> khider: Did you partition your external hard drive in Ubuntu?  Have you rebooted since you partitioned it?
[08:01] <uo3273-fvarklb> thune3: OK - that is believable.  Why is it unlikely a problem.  How much do you know about library and Encrypted.ZIP files?  Are library files supposed to be encrypted like that?
[08:02] <KB1JWQ> uo3273-fvarklb: They're socket files, they're not encrypted.
[08:02] <Flannel> Im0: Yeah, that's Maverick, not -proposed
[08:02] <KB1JWQ> Er, library files.  Sorry, not socket files.
[08:03] <khider> Appl6: I used Kubuntu
[08:03] <uo3273-fvarklb> KB1JWQ: OK.  And what are socket files?
[08:03] <Appl6> khider: That's fine.  Are you on Kubuntu now, and have you rebooted since you partitioned it?
[08:03] <Alley^Away> whats the file system in ubuntu? ext4?
[08:03] <Im0> Flannel: I'm a bit confused now.  I thought that URL would have been for the current version (ie. 10.4).  Is there an easy way to ask apt to try and install that version?
[08:04] <khider> Appl6: And yeah, I unmounted and remounted the thing and I have zilch permissions except read
[08:04] <Appl6> Alley^Away: You can pick which one you want, but yes, it's usually ext3 or ext4.
[08:04] <Appl6> khider: I'm not talking about unmount or remount.  I'm talking about rebooting your computer.
[08:04] <SandGorgon> has anybody installed a clean Ubuntu system and used LVM ? could anyone point me to a guide
[08:04] <khider> Appl6: No, I am sorry but why should I? I do not understand.
[08:05] <khider> Appl6: But i did not reboot
[08:05] <ActionParsnip> Khider: try: sudo mkdir /media/backup; sudo mount /dev/partition /media/backup -o rw,user ,should be ok
[08:05] <Alley^Away> ok thx - yeah I know that you can pick, I remember upgrading to the latest when I installed... just trying to install stuff under win to be able to see the files, but ran into problems
[08:05] <khider> ActionParsnip: Whoa...cool
[08:05] <ActionParsnip> Khider: replace partition with the partition name. Like sdb1 or whatever
[08:05] <ActionParsnip> !mount | khider
[08:06] <Alley^Away> ext4 would explain it, the tool I'm using only supports ext2/3
[08:06] <Alley^Away> thx
[08:06] <ActionParsnip> khider: mount is very worth learning how to use it
[08:07] <Flannel> Im0: No, that folder has all the versions in the repos for all of the versions of Ubuntu.  As for installing it, offically no.  There's no easy way.  Unofficially, take a look at the dependencies and versions and they may be already satisfied on Lucid
[08:07] <khider> ActionParsnip: Yeah, my Linux kung fu is weak since returning to Ubuntu. Before I used Slackware and Gentoo--but i am too dumb to run the latter on my new puter
[08:07] <thune3> uo3273-fvarklb: you could run "debsums -a openoffice.org-core | grep libpackage" and it should say OK for your file, which means that it matches the installed version of the file. (unless the digest was hacked, very unlikely)
[08:07] <khider> And too lazy to run Slackware
[08:07] <ActionParsnip> Khider: the handbook for gentoo is dead handy for nongentoo stuffs :)

[08:08] <Appl6> ActionParsnip: Looks like you missed the "Disk /dev/sdg doesn't contain a valid partition table" line from fdisk.  You really should read the pastebins instead of giving people wrong advice.
