[10:13] <Ash-Fox> Can somebody tell me where I can get the ext2 defrag tool is? I can't seem to find it in Ubuntu distros.
[10:14] <Slart> Ash-Fox: I think there was one a long time ago but it was killing more file systems than it helped
[10:14] <onetinsoldier> Ash-Fox: well, have you tried to google for it?
[10:14] <Gnea> Ash-Fox: defrag is a microsoft filesystem-based thing, not a *nix fs based thing.
[10:14] <Ash-Fox> onetinsoldier, yes, and posts about how defrag isn't needed wasn't useful.
[10:15] <enzotib> narzy, you do a lot of errors typing command ppl say you in this channel, be more precise, you can corrupt your installation this way
[10:15] <Ash-Fox> Gnea, there is a defrag tool for ext2 filesystems.
[10:15] <onetinsoldier> Ash-Fox: see Slart message about t whyit's probably not included ^^
[10:15] <Slart> Ash-Fox: I haven't seen anything new since that one.. just don't fill your ext3 volumes up and it will be fine
[10:15] <Ash-Fox> Gnea, and even the ext filesysetms suffer from fragmentation.
[10:15] <narzy> oops
[10:15] <narzy> so how do i fix this?
[10:15] <Ash-Fox> Slart, I'm looking for the tool, not advice on how to use ext3.
[10:15] <narzy> create a new user>
[10:15] <narzy> ?
[10:16] <Gnea> Ash-Fox: if you know about it, why ask?
[10:16] <enzotib> narzy, i think your /home is yet in /home, you can see that if you unmount the partition /home
[10:16] <Ash-Fox> Gnea, because unlike other distributions, it isn't available in ubuntu's repositories.
[10:16] <narzy> how do I unmount it?
[10:16] <enzotib> narzy, sudo umount /home
[10:17] <Gnea> Ash-Fox: this is true.
[10:17] <enzotib> narzy, and next ls -l /home, make me see
[10:17] <Ash-Fox> Gnea, it's even in Slackware - it just baffles me /why/ it's not there.
[10:17] <Gnea> Ash-Fox: so what's this defrag program called and where is it normally found?
[10:17] <Ash-Fox> It's called 'defrag' or 'defrag2'
[10:17] <Ash-Fox> /usr/sbin/
[10:18] <narzy> drwxr-xr-x 27 tim tim 4096 2008-12-26 01:21 tim
[10:18] <Gnea> Ash-Fox: who wrote it? url?
[10:18] <Ash-Fox> I have no idea.
[10:18] <narzy> if I unmounted home and it is still there...
[10:18] <minterior> hi people! how can I get the text betwen two double quotes? With mawk or sed?
[10:18] <Ash-Fox> I don't go memorizing --version strings.
[10:18] <narzy> wth?
[10:19] <enzotib> narzy, ok, mv /home/tim /tim
[10:19] <deutsch1988> I have scan the dial up modem, whar is the next step? please heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp
[10:19] <Gnea> Ash-Fox: then I suggest you not ask offtopic questions
[10:19] <narzy> permission denied
[10:19] <enzotib> narzy, sudo mv /home/tim /tim
[10:20] <Gnea> but hey
[10:20] <narzy> done
[10:20] <Gnea> !defrag
[10:20] <Ash-Fox> Gnea, it's not offtopic. I'm asking where the hell the application is
[10:20] <deutsch1988> I have scan the dial up modem, whar is the next step? please heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp
[10:20] <bazhang> Ash-Fox, defrag has not been updated since 1997
[10:20] <enzotib> narzy, now mount you home partition: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /home
[10:20] <bazhang> Ash-Fox, it is no longer under development and will more than likely cause damage to your system
[10:21] <Ash-Fox> bazhang, great :/
[10:21] <Gnea> Ash-Fox: for one thing, your language is not welcome here. for a second thing, if it's not in the repositories, it's not supported, and thus, offtopic.
[10:21] <narzy> done
[10:21] <deutsch1988_> I have scan the dial up modem, whar is the next step? please heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp
[10:21] <bazhang> !info e2fsprogs
[10:21] <onetinsoldier> deutsch1988_: have yo run pppconfig yet?
[10:22] <Ash-Fox> Gnea, I have added you to ignore, becaus so far, you've been antagonizing me with your lack of knowledge on the matter, claiming false truths on a matter you did not investigate.
[10:22] <enzotib> narzy, now: sudo mv /tim /home

[10:58] <joaopinto> krishnan, unless you have a specific doubt, you would be better reading a tutorial on how to setup a mail server
[10:58] <bimberi> onetinsoldier: there's still ~/.muttrc  ;)
[10:58] <onetinsoldier> bimberi: ahh, yes. forgot that. thanks :-)
[10:59] <Slart> hmm.. would I have to boot into windows to defrag an external ntfs drive?.. or can I do it from a virtualbox vm?
[10:59] <fadzL> what is mutt
[11:00] <hischild> Slart, ntfsprogs doesn't have a defrag tool?
[11:00] <Flannel> fadzL: Its a curses based mail client
[11:00] <ardchoille> fadzL: apt-cache show mutt
[11:00] <Slart> fadzL: command line mail client
[11:00] <Slart> hischild: I don't think so.. I haven't actually checked though
[11:01] <fadzL> owh..tq..i m newbie
[11:02]  * bimberi wonders what newbies make of "curses based" ;)
[11:03] <quibbler> "curses based" like windows???
[11:04] <onetinsoldier> what do i need to do in Firestarter to allow /DCC file receives? i get a 'Connect', but it's blocked beyond that unless i stop the firewall
[11:04] <mossmon> Hey, I'd like to install drivers for my ati radeon 9600, but the open source drivers didn't work properly, so I tried getting the newest catalyst drivers, which are in a .run -file. When I try to open it, it opens it in dosbox, which doesn't seem right. any tips?
[11:04] <hischild> Slart, apparently there's no real defrag tool. If you can get it to see the real drive in vbox that'd work, otherwise you'll need windows.
[11:04] <onetinsoldier> great curses based prog is 'iptraf'!
[11:05] <hischild> onetinsoldier, check the logs, it should be in there. Rightclick and then allow it.
[11:05] <onetinsoldier> hischild: ok, thanks, i'll have a look
[11:05] <Slart> hischild: mm.. seems it's hard to make a vm see an usb connected drive..I guess I'll have to boot windows then.. or steal the gf's laptop...
[11:05] <bimberi> krishnan: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/email-services.html
[11:06] <Slart> hischild: thanks
[11:06] <hischild> Slart, both would work. If you have VMware working somehow, you can still use that.
[11:06] <Slart> hischild: just plain virtualbox
[11:06] <rinsmaster> Slart, I have VirtualBox running here with usb support
[11:06] <rinsmaster> requires some hacks but it works then
[11:06] <krishnan> bimberi: will tht be sufficient for setting up a full fledged email server?
[11:06] <Slart> rinsmaster: oh? any serious operations to enable that?
[11:06] <pixelated> 'ello all
[11:07] <rinsmaster> Slart, Just google like: "Virtualbox ubuntu usb support" ;)
[11:07] <rinsmaster> Slart, also, i have the non-opensource version, but as far as i know the same hack works for the oss version
[11:08] <roca> is there a prog that handles web servers?
[11:08] <Slart> rinsmaster: thanks.. I'm googling
[11:08] <mossmon> my ubuntu-supported drivers for ati radeon 9600 don't work properly, is it possible to install the closed source catalyst drivers?
[11:08] <mossmon> I can't find anything by googling..
[11:08] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> How do i make thunderbird download all my gmail foldersw?
[11:09] <roca> is there a prog that handles web servers ssh or things of that nature?
[11:09] <bimberi> krishnan: the packaged referred to (postfix, exim, dovecot, ...) are used in very large installations.  So _yes_ I suppose.
[11:09] <onetinsoldier> mossmon: howdy. ther's a guide to installing the glrx driver. how-to build.deb packages. i will help with it if you need it. bottom half of the page  --> (change libstdc++5 to libstdc++6)
[11:09] <mrwes> Hey, does Amarok have DAAP share like Rhythmbox?
[11:09] <bimberi> krishnan: *packages
[11:09] <terryx> ubuntu wubi requirement plz???????
[11:10] <ph8> hi all, i've got a dell studio laptop and the 'hot keys' across the top row of my keyboard (stop/play/left/right/voldown/volup/voloff/eject cd) seem to be activating themselves random (at least the eject and volup ones do) - any idea why that would be?
[11:10] <onetinsoldier> mossmon: oops...
[11:10] <onetinsoldier> mossmon: howdy. ther's a guide to installing the fglrx driver. how-to build .deb packages. i will help with it if you need it. bottom half of the page  --> (change libstdc++5 to libstdc++6)  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[11:10] <roca> is there a prog that handles web servers ssh or things of that nature in a gui?
[11:11] <mossmon> onetinsoldier, thanks, I'll try it out and ask for help if necessary :)
[11:11] <rinsmaster> roca, use the "Connect to server" gnome option, it's under the second menu: Locations
[11:11] <onetinsoldier> mossmon: ok, good luck
[11:11] <Gnea> !wubi | terryx
[11:11] <rinsmaster> roca, or find an FTP client that supports sftp
[11:13] <roca> i remember a prog i used a while back to run diff servers and stuff but it was before i went to iraq so im a little rusty
[11:13] <worldcitizen09> I am using gigabyte VIA/S3G UniChrome Pro IGP board and 8.10 does not complete the boot from cd or installation. Can some one help
[11:13] <terryx> i just installed ubuntu(wubi), after 10min. using..its freezes...why?
[11:14] <worldcitizen09> I am using gigabyte VIA/S3G UniChrome Pro IGP board and 8.10 does not complete the boot from cd or installation. Can some one help, please?
[11:14] <krishnan> i have netgear wi-fi router. which external wi-fi adapter should i buy for my laptop?
[11:14] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: at the boot screen, press F6 and delete the following words from the sequence: quiet splash
[11:14] <terryx> i have 480 mb of ram..
[11:15] <terryx> i just installed ubuntu(wubi), after 10min. using..its freezes...why?
[11:15] <Gnea> krishnan: netgear?
[11:15] <Walex3> worldcitizen09: usually wait at least 5-10min before repeating a question
[11:15] <Gnea> !repeat | terryx
[11:15] <Walex3> terryx: usually wait at least 5-10min before repeating a question
[11:15] <terryx> ok
[11:15] <worldcitizen09> Thanks Gnea
[11:15] <terryx> walex3, can u help me out?
[11:15] <Walex3> terryx: anyhow, we are sorry, but all our psychic advisors are busy on other astral planes...
[11:15] <worldcitizen09> That's all or something else needs to be done later
[11:15] <Gnea> terryx: it is in your best interest to not beg for help, either.
[11:15] <Walex3> terryx: unfortunately I am one of the fre non-psychic advisors here :-)
[11:16] <scientes> how can i extract a squash archive
[11:16] <scientes> or at least mount it?
[11:16] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: you need to read what it says and decide from there.
[11:16] <terryx> i just need help?
[11:16] <Gnea> !patience | terryx
[11:16] <krishnan> Gnea: yes netgear
[11:16] <Walex3> terryx: almost eveyrybody else is clairvoyant here and can solve problems without being given details, but I cannot.
[11:17] <Gnea> terryx: begging and demanding for help will only want to make people help you less.
[11:17] <bazhang> terryx, please be patient
[11:17] <mats> I have problem and I would be really glad if someone could help me out. When I instert my digital camera gthumb starts two times and the latter is telling me that the camera is busy. If I close the second gthumb popup window and wait a couple of seconds I can still import photos using the first gthumb instance but this is quite annoying. Where can I configure so that I only get one instance of GThumb when I start my camera?
[11:17] <silv3r_m00n> hi there
[11:17] <Gnea> terryx: now, I've given you the URL for wubi, there are some troubleshooting and system requirements there.
[11:17] <Walex3> terryx: anyhow random crashes are often hw problems.
[11:18] <terryx> power of what?
[11:18]  * CoUrPsE|DeAd huggles.
[11:18] <silv3r_m00n> i have two ethernet cards on my PC eth0 and eth1 ... i use eth0 to connect to broadband and i want to connect my laptop to eth1 and get internet access to this laptop via my PC how can i do that ?
[11:18] <scientes> if you ship your system with a compression format you should install the tool to open those archives
[11:18] <scientes> how can i decompress quashfs
[11:19] <Walex3> silv3r_m00n: do a web searching for configuring your PC for forwarding/routing.
[11:19] <silv3r_m00n> Walex3: let me check
[11:20] <Walex3> scientes: if it is "squashfs" that's not an archives format, it is a compresses filesystem. To create it there is a command line utility to read it you need to mount it and have the relevsnt kernel module installed before you do that.
[11:20] <onetinsoldier> silv3r_m00n: the 'firestarter' package might be able to help with that.
[11:20] <scientes> compressed filesystems are archives
[11:20] <terryx_> what type of power does ubuntu wubi needs?
[11:20] <silv3r_m00n> onetinsoldier: let me check that
[11:20] <Walex3> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SquashFS
[11:20] <hischild> !ics | silv3r_m00n
[11:20] <scientes> dmg is a compressed filesystem and it is used exactally as one would use tar.gz

[11:21] <terryx_> 3 times hangs after ubuntu wubi installed...what i do?
[11:21] <silv3r_m00n> hischild: let me check that too
[11:21] <Gnea> terryx_: how much hard drive space did you give it?
[11:22] <Walex3> terryx: what "hangs"? At what point?
[11:22] <terryx_> 8gb..4gb free now.
[11:22] <roca> found it ... its called webmin  ... thanks again
[11:22] <Slart> !webmin
[11:23] <Gnea> webmin - the root of all that is evil.
[11:23] <gmathews> Good day. I am running Intrepid - I have an NTFS drive where all my stuff is stored on - But evertime I need to use it (after booting into Ubuntu ) I have to click on Places -> 295.9 GB Media. How can I sort of auto mount it?
[11:23] <terryx_> its means freeze my computer...anytime...like after 5min. after ubuntu starts
[11:23] <azfira> jum
[11:23] <terryx_> i just have installed ubuntu wubi
[11:23] <Gnea> terryx_: are you doing anything in particular when it freezes?
[11:23] <Gnea> terryx_: yes, we are well aware that you've installed wubi.
[11:24] <gizmo> what is nmap for?
[11:24] <Gnea> terryx_: you don't have to tell us things over and over, just tell us once. we're not idiots.
[11:24] <terryx_> nothing before..this time chatting with u guys..then freeze..sometime freezes, or sometime logout in middle of anything
[11:24] <Gnea> gizmo: portscanning, securing networks
[11:25] <roca> does ebox work like webmin?
[11:25] <terryx_> ok..sorry
[11:25] <gizmo> Gnea, is it usefull?
[11:25] <Gnea> terryx_: and you said you have 340mb ram?
[11:25] <terryx_> 480mb
[11:25] <Gnea> gizmo: it can be.
[11:25] <Gnea> terryx_: what cpu?
[11:25] <Kartagis> http://paste.ubuntu.com/93126/ <--- i get this when make'ing my kernel. any idea?
[11:26] <Slart> roca: kind of
[11:26] <terryx_> pentium-4, 2.4ghz
[11:26] <Slart> roca: give it a try
[11:26] <Walex3> gmathews: put it into '/etc/fstab'
[11:26] <Gnea> terryx_: is hyperthreading turned on or off?
[11:26] <roca> Slart, im looking at the website and it is an iso is that right?
[11:26] <terryx_> what is that.. i don;t know..
[11:27] <gmathews> Walex3: can u sort of guide me through it?
[11:27] <gmathews> still a n00b..
[11:27] <Gnea> terryx_: do you know how to use the BIOS?
[11:27] <Slart> roca: it isn't available frome the repos?
[11:27] <Slart> !info ebox
[11:27] <terryx_> yes...
[11:27] <roca> Slart, let me check again
[11:27] <terryx_> if in the middle of chat i left...so plz understand that my ubuntu freeze again
[11:27] <Slart> roca: "sudo apt-get install ebox" will do it for you
[11:27] <Walex3> gmathews: if you are a n00b there is some GUI stuff to do that for you, but I can't remember the name...
[11:27] <Gnea> terryx_: okay, if you restart the system and go into the BIOS settings, there should be a setting in there, somewhere, for turning HPET on/off
[11:27] <co0lingFir3> hello, does checkinstall not work for libraries?
[11:27] <terryx_> ok
[11:27] <Gnea> terryx_: that is okay.
[11:27] <gmathews> hmmm would be cool to get the GUI for it
[11:27] <terryx_> what i do
[11:28] <roca> Slart, thanks
[11:28] <Kartagis> http://paste.ubuntu.com/93126/ <--- i get this when make'ing my kernel. any ideas?
[11:28] <terryx_> hpet is where, chipset, boot, or i have to find?
[11:28] <Gnea> restart computer, enter BIOS, check HPET setting, exit BIOS, return here and tell us what it is set to please.
[11:28] <Slart> roca: you're welcome
[11:29] <worldcitizen09> hello Gnea, I did delete the splash screen but the booting halting when the display manager started. Any ideas?
[11:29] <gmathews> Does anyobody know the GUI app to mount partitions automatically in fstab?
[11:29] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: what is the compcache_size_setup thisng you're tying to add to the kernel? i'm just curious as to what it's for/about?
[11:29] <silv3r_m00n> onetinsoldier: hischild: thanks that worked using firestarter
[11:29] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: it sounds like you have a bad video driver
[11:29] <onetinsoldier> silv3r_m00n: great! :-)
[11:29] <terryx_> should i do it now, on or off?
[11:29] <onetinsoldier> silv3r_m00n: you're welcome
[11:30] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: what video card do you have?
[11:30] <gmathews> Walex3: is it PySDM? - PySDM is a PyGTK Storage Device Manager that allows full customization of hard
[11:30] <gmathews> disk mountpoints whitout manually access to fstab.
[11:30] <worldcitizen09> Gnea I downloaded the Linux mint and the same problem came up. they boot fine in safe graphics mode but then i cannot change resolution later
[11:30] <silv3r_m00n> onetinsoldier: one more thing... looks like firestarter must run for this to work...so how can i start firestarter everytime ubuntu starts ?
[11:31] <roca> Slart, its giving me this error  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[11:31] <roca>   ebox: Depends: libapache-authcookie-perl but it is not installable
[11:31] <roca> E: Broken packages
[11:31] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: then you have a hardware problem.
[11:31] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, i just marked/unmarked things, that's all
[11:31] <Slart> roca: hmm.. same thing here.. guess someone made a mistake somewhere
[11:31] <terryx_> gnea, u there, what i do now?
[11:32] <Gnea> terryx_: did you get to the BIOS?
[11:32] <worldcitizen09> Gnea, the display driver in windows is  VIA/S3G UniChrome Pro IGP. It works fine in Linux with ubuntu 8.04 or linux mint 5 but not with 8.10 etc
[11:32] <onetinsoldier> silv3r_m00n: now that you've installed it, i believe it runs everytime you start Ubuntu. however, i do get a 'failed' message about the firestart service starting wheni boot, but i am pretty certain it's running as soon at i enter x-windows(perhpas even sooner)
[11:32] <Walex3> gmathews: it may well be nice. BTW just fopund the page on editing '/etc/fstab' manually: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
[11:32] <terryx_> no what i do, turn off or on
[11:33] <worldcitizen09> Can you please think of somehting?
[11:33] <gmathews> Thank you Walex3 :)
[11:33] <co0lingFir3> does anyone know where to get a deb for libusb1.0?
[11:33] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: i see. you can try changing the display driver from S3 to VESA when it boots to safe graphics mode
[11:33] <Walex3> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[11:33] <silv3r_m00n> onetinsoldier: hmm...i configured in firestarter and internet connection sharing works fine... now i quit firestarter and it still works fine... so firestarter is not needed again ?
[11:33] <nibbler> co0lingFir3: apt-file search libusb
[11:33] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: roger that. i'm not sure.. i'll poke around a little though
[11:34] <Gnea> terryx_: do you know how to restart your computer?
[11:34] <Walex3> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Intrepid#Mounting_NTFS_Partitions_.28with_read.2Fwrite_privileges.29
[11:34] <terryx_> ok i go then come..wait
[11:34] <worldcitizen09> Gnea can u give me a bit of guidance on that
[11:34] <Gnea> as if I have a choice? well, I suppose I could go to bed... :P
[11:34] <onetinsoldier> silv3r_m00n: you probably shut the firewall down, but that probably does not disable the iptables port-forwarding
[11:35] <silv3r_m00n> onetinsoldier: yeah the iptables once configured are there always and so it shud work from now on always...i think
[11:35] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: when ubuntu starts, does it give you the option of booting into single-user mode?
[11:35] <onetinsoldier> silv3r_m00n: yep, i think so too
[11:35] <dr_willis> silv3r_m00n,  l was thinking firestarter was just a gui/front end.. it sets up the firewal and thats it. :)
[11:36] <worldcitizen09> Gnea perhaps so, I can check later when i boot in there. I know i have to fill in user name and password
[11:36] <gmathews> Walex3: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions has a script to handle it - Awesome gonnna try it now.
[11:37] <silv3r_m00n> dr_willis: yeah ... but firestarter got some good things too like the stats and active connections
[11:37] <silv3r_m00n> i was looking for something like this for the past few days
[11:37] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: sounds good. you may also want to read and bookmark this page: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=342115
[11:37] <co0lingFir3> nibbler: does this search in the repos?
[11:37] <hischild> silv3r_m00n, if you want the situation before you activated firestarter, you have to click stop on firestarter.
[11:38] <nibbler> co0lingFir3: yes
[11:38] <silv3r_m00n> hischild: thats a really useful piece of information... thanks
[11:39] <onetinsoldier> silv3r_m00n: ok,what hischild said. i misread your message, sorry. just quiting out of firestarter does not shut it down
[11:39] <terryx> gnea: i am back and there is no hyperthreading option in my bios...now what?
[11:40] <krishnan> which print server goes well with ubuntu hardy and win XP?
[11:40] <silv3r_m00n> onetinsoldier: thats all fine...
[11:41] <miro> whati s the best way my two partitions to be visible and for windows and for ubuntu?
[11:41] <terryx> gnea: i am back and there is no hyperthreading option in my bios...now what?
[11:42] <Gnea> terryx: remember what you were told about repeating.
[11:42] <terryx> ok...i wait..
[11:43] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: hello, at first glance form reading this web page from a google search, it looks like you might have done something that caused a known bug to pop-up on you....  --> http://code.google.com/p/compcache/wiki/CompilingAndUsing
[11:43] <Gnea> terryx: now, you need to install the pastebinit package, like this:  sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[11:43] <terryx> done..
[11:44] <Gnea> terryx: now, issue this command and paste the resulting URL here... this will help us determine where the problem is:  dmesg | pastebinit
[11:45] <worldcitizen09> Gnea I looked at the page. Thanks a lot. My mother board is Gigabyte K8M800 which is mentioned there. however I dont understand the change of settings. Can u please help with xorg etc
[11:45] <terryx> so i type dmesg | pastebinit in terminal?
[11:45] <CaneToad> anyone seen lousy "G_IO_ERROR_FAILED_HANDLED in the UI" issues in various apps?
[11:45] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: once you are able to boot the system into single-user mode, you will be able to change the /etc/X11/xorg.conf then
[11:46] <Gnea> terryx: correct.
[11:46] <gizmo> sudo chmod 666 /usr/sbin/sshd<---whats this for?
[11:46] <gizmo> can anyone tell me
[11:46] <Gnea> gizmo: who told you to do that?
[11:47] <gizmo> my frend
[11:47] <Gnea> lol
[11:47] <gizmo> Gnea, why?am i being fool?
[11:47] <Gnea> gizmo: yes - 666 makes it unexecutable
[11:47] <gizmo> thats why im asking here..
[11:47] <gizmo> so?
[11:48] <gizmo> can i change it
[11:48] <Gnea> it means ssh server will not work anymore
[11:48] <terryx> gnea: sorry got logout again, black screen and all gone its asking for my user name and password again
[11:48] <terryx> http://pastebin.com/f75333ebd
[11:48] <gizmo> Gnea, if ssh not work anymore why?
[11:48] <worldcitizen09> Gnea is there a motherboard for amd platform that will install ubuntu as a breeze or should i switch over to intel
[11:49] <onetinsoldier> gizmo: do you know what 'executable' means?
[11:49] <co0lingFir3> nibbler: unfortunately libusb1.0 ist not in the repos...
[11:49] <terryx> its just like hen you press ctrl+alt+f2
[11:49] <Gnea> terryx: try turning visual effects off
[11:49] <terryx> its already off
[11:49] <gizmo> onetinsoldier, no what is it?
[11:49] <worldcitizen09> Gnea I am thinking of upgrading to amd 5000+ or intel dual core
[11:49] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: I really am not sure what is a good motherboard that's new these days
[11:50] <dr_willis> Time for Linux Basic Training. :)
[11:50] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: you should stick with AMD
[11:50] <Gnea> terryx: good
[11:50] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, thanks, but i still don't see what i have to do
[11:50] <worldcitizen09> Great, Gnea. That is a good suggestion after my heart. But could u recommend a motherboard too like asus etc
[11:51] <onetinsoldier> gizmo: it determines whether or not a compiled binary program can be run(executed)
[11:51] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: Tyan and Asus are preferable.
[11:51] <Gnea> !pm | gizmo
[11:51] <gizmo> am my computer being hurt or hack?
[11:51] <terryx> Gnea: what u think about the problem?
[11:51] <nibbler> co0lingFir3: libusb-0.1-4: /lib/libusb-0.1.so.4
[11:52] <Gnea> terryx: you should edit this file:  /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:52] <nibbler> co0lingFir3: might do it..m aybe
[11:52] <Gnea> terryx: and add this to your kernel boot line:  pci=routeirq
[11:52] <worldcitizen09> gnea thanks will try to do something, otherwise will need help again.
[11:52] <Gnea> worldcitizen09: we'll be here :)

[11:52] <Gnea> good luck
[11:53] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: yeah, i hear you. i don't know either. it's a bug, i guess that Ubuntu has patch the 2.6.27 kernel in Intrepid with that out-of-tree compcache module. you have enabled or diabled some kernel option that has caused this bug to appear for you. what to do? i don't know
[11:53] <onetinsoldier> patched*
[11:53] <gizmo> Gnea, so how?am i being hack or what?
[11:53] <terryx> i have opened the file...now where to put this line

[11:55] <dr_willis> miro,  i have no issues with ntfs or fat. - it is worth the time to read up on how linux acceses both.
[11:55] <Slart> miro: you can't install ubuntu on a ntfs or fat32 fs.. but it can read/write files from them
[11:55] <benjick_> Hey
[11:55] <Gnea> miro: what do you mean? reading/writing from a device or installing to?

[11:56] <terryx> so i do: kernel	pci=routeirq
[11:56] <Gnea> terryx: make it this: kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/hda2 ro pci=routeirq
[11:57] <Gnea> terryx: so you're appending 'pci=routeirq' to the end of the kernel line
[11:57] <miro> Gnea: to install it on this kind of file sistem. i want ot have dual OS laptop and Windows to be able to readand the linux partition
[11:57] <terryx> understood and done...now?
[11:57] <gizmo> Gnea,  chmod: changing permissions of `/usr/sbin/sshd': Operation not permitted
[11:57] <Gnea> !dualboot | miro
[11:57] <ramon> gizmo do you know what it could be happening if i have flashplugin-nonfree installed in the browser and i cant see the video...if i download i can play outsite..so is not codec...what do you think...do you know if there is a way to blow video playing?
[11:57] <Gnea> gizmo: did you use sudo before?
[11:58] <dr_willis> gizmo,  linux basics.. to alter 'system type' stuff - you must use sudo
[11:58] <gizmo> Gnea, yeah
[11:58] <Gnea> gizmo: then use it again
[11:58] <miro> gnea: yea dualboot i know that for linux its best to be on ext3 but this cant be readed from windows
[11:59] <terryx> Gnea: can i ask you whats this for?
[11:59] <gizmo> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root<PHONE_NUMBER>-10-14 02:50 /usr/sbin/sshd <--so its alrite already/
[11:59] <dr_willis> miro,  with the right tools windows can read/write ext2/3
[11:59] <Slart> miro: yes it can.. there are drivers for reading ext2/3 in windows
[11:59] <Gnea> terryx: it's for re-routing how the hardware interrupts work with the linux kernel
[11:59] <dr_willis> miro,  but they can cause issues if used wrngly
[11:59] <Guest29258> Merry boxing day :D anyone care to help me get my Christmas present working? The "instructions for Linux" don't make sense
[12:00] <terryx> ok...now should i do anything or just wait for another hang?
[12:00] <Gnea> terryx: yes - reboot it again and wait
[12:00] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: hello. may i ask why you are wanting to compile your own custom kernel?
[12:00] <Guest29258> The instructions are quite short though
[12:00] <Gnea> terryx: and don't forget to save the file
[12:00] <terryx> enable desktop effects?
[12:00] <yan_> hi
[12:00] <Gnea> terryx: no, leave them off, for now
[12:00] <miro> so what about instaling ubuntu on ntfs or fat file systtem?
[12:00] <terryx> yes i have save the file..
[12:01] <Gnea> miro: no.
[12:01] <terryx> ok i am restarting
[12:01] <Slart> miro: can  not  be  done
[12:01] <gizmo> Gnea, -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root<PHONE_NUMBER>-10-14 02:50 /usr/sbin/sshd<--so its ok already?
[12:01] <dr_willis> miro,  unless you wan ttouse wubi - and i dont suggest using wubi
[12:01] <miro> i tryed once wubi and i dont like it
[12:01] <Gnea> gizmo: looks great
[12:02] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, mtozses@mtozses-laptop:/$ lsmod | wc -l
[12:02] <Kartagis> 108
[12:02] <gizmo> Gnea, are you sure if chmod 666 its mean im being hack/
[12:02] <dr_willis> willis@black:~(24931.413 Mb)$ ls -l /usr/sbin/sshd
[12:02] <dr_willis> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 409K 2008-10-13 14:50 /usr/sbin/sshd*
[12:02] <Gnea> gizmo: it means that your system will be messed up, yes.
[12:02]  * dr_willis wonders at the size differance in gizmo 's sshd.
[12:03]  * Gnea wonders at the K in dr_willis's sshd
[12:03] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: so, you'd like to get that number down?
[12:03] <dr_willis> Gnea,  it rouded up a bit TOO much it looks like.
[12:03] <Gnea> dr_willis: :)
[12:04] <gizmo> dr_willis, what you mean?
[12:04] <Slart> dr_willis: mine is 436k .. or 445864 bytes
[12:04] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: 105 here...
[12:04] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, one of the reasonss yes
[12:04] <dr_willis> heh. Now eeryone is checking. :)
[12:04] <terryx> Gnea: is it good if i full upgrade/update ubuntu?
[12:04] <Gnea> lol
[12:04] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: are you using open-source video driver?
[12:04] <dr_willis> gizmo,  do      ls -l /usr/sbin/sshd   and check the #s to what others have
[12:04] <Gnea> terryx: did you reboot yet?
[12:04] <terryx> yes
[12:05] <terryx> i am back
[12:05] <miro> dr_willis: so if im understand right i will install ubuntu on ext3 partiton wich basicaly cannot be used from windows but with ubuntu i could read/write on the windows partition
[12:05] <Gnea> terryx: i would wait for the update.... see how it goes over the next 10 minutes
[12:05] <Gnea> make sure it's not going to crash
[12:05] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, one other is i have a earphone not muting speakers and i am hoping to solve that
[12:05] <Slart> miro: read this carefull... You   can    read   ext3   from    windows
[12:05] <Gnea> terryx: there's nothing worse than having the system halt in the middle of software installation - you could end up with a corrupt database
[12:05] <miro> with special tools
[12:05] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, how do i find that out?
[12:05] <dr_willis> miro,  as i said earlier - with the PROPER TOOLS installed on windows.. You CAN read/write ext2/3 from windows
[12:05] <gizmo> wait dr_willis
[12:06] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: grep divers /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:06] <terryx> i wait 20min. then use sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade...is that fine?
[12:06] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: grep drivers /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:06] <Slart> miro: as special as adobe acrobat or anything else in windows
[12:06] <dr_willis> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root<PHONE_NUMBER>-10-13 14:50 /usr/sbin/sshd
[12:06] <dr_willis> gizmo,  ok. the #'s match. :) false alarm.. perhaps.. I would still be leary of HOW the permissions got changed
[12:07] <terryx> Gnea: so i can go to my drives and browse anything for checking wheather the problem occurs or not?
[12:07] <PolitikerALT> does anybody know how to install a "Sis Mirage 3+"-Driver in Ubuntu?
[12:07] <Gnea> terryx: just use your computer normally
[12:07] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//intel_drv.so
[12:07] <terryx> ok
[12:08] <Gnea> terryx: worry about updating when you're sure it's not freezing anymore
[12:08] <terryx> ok
[12:08] <terryx> i am waiting 20min.
[12:08] <Gnea> otherwise you will mess your system up more
[12:08] <miro> dr_willis: ok last question when i have to show where is the root or main directory i just have to type / right?
[12:08] <dr_willis> miro,  linux 'fundamentals '   the 'root' of the system filesystem is /    ROOT has his own home at /root    a users 'main' home directoru is /home/username/
[12:09] <dr_willis> miro,  root is used as a word to mean a lot of different things in linux. :)
[12:09] <miro> ok i think i get it
[12:09] <miro> i will try to install it
[12:10] <miro> last question
[12:10] <miro> really
[12:10] <dr_willis> miro,  if you are all scared.. you could install virtualbox under windows and practice with that. No risk to anything
[12:10] <miro> 32bit or 64bit for  intel core duo procesor on laptop
[12:10] <dr_willis> miro,  it would depend on your ram and needs
[12:11] <terryx_> Gnea: got freeze again..:(
[12:11] <miro> 2Gb ram
[12:11] <miro> common needs
[12:11] <dr_willis> miro,   when in doubt stick with 32bit
[12:11] <piksi> i don't see any reason nowadays NOT to install 64bit if the system supports it
[12:11] <miro> mostly surfing
[12:11] <dr_willis> piksi,  a few apps dont like it.. is about all ive noticed also. but if you NEED those apps...
[12:11] <miro> in interent and some multimedia
[12:11] <Gnea> terryx_: ick :(
[12:11] <Gnea> terryx_: try the upgrade
[12:12] <terryx_> u sure
[12:12] <piksi> well, i doubt a "normal" user would need "those apps" that aren't compatible with 64bit version anyway
[12:12] <terryx_> i mean its freeze again...why to upgrade
[12:12] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: ok, roger. i would ask if you have considered downloading and compiling the lastest kernel, but... that is a LOT of work. by that, i mean going through every kernel option and setting them all on your own, perhaps using some parameters from the stock Ubuntu one(for instance...CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_COUNT=16, CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE=65536), however, i would not expect you to do that, i did it, but it's a LOT of work.
[12:12] <jeff008> is there any body to help me part my disk lvm2 with the cd live hardy ?
[12:12] <Gnea> terryx_: how long did it take this time? 5 mins?
[12:12] <piksi> miro: just go with the 64bit
[12:13] <terryx_> Gnea: maybe 7min.
[12:14] <miro> is skype work well on 64bit?
[12:14] <Gnea> terryx_: I'm not sure what the problem is then :/
[12:14] <planttt>  hi, In thunderbird; I have a message with a lot of addresses, setup in content-type:text/plain. this means I cannot format it in HTML. I want to do that. How do I change the content-type of that message?
[12:14] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: the reason for the question about what video driver your using is because, if you were using the proprietary nvidia or fglrx(ati) driver, they aren't made ot work with kernel 2.6.28
[12:14] <Slart> miro: it works as well as expected.. it's still skype though
[12:14] <terryx_> Gnea: ok i have noticed one thing, when my computer is idle, it won't freeze, when i use some program or browse my drives its freezes, u think thats a co-incidence?
[12:15] <miro> ok peoples lthank you for everything
[12:15] <miro> see you later
[12:15] <terryx_> Gnea: or i bring 512mb of more ram?
[12:15] <moDumass> hey all, so um, i have an eepc, 8.10 insalled on the 4gig drive and i can see the 8gig, it mounts onto my desktop but i dont have write access..any idea how to fix this?
[12:15] <Kartagis> i thought the latest was 2.6.27-10
[12:15] <erry> hello i try to change permissions for a folder as root, and they change back to normal!
[12:16] <erry> Is there a way to solve this
[12:16] <test_of_faith> tes
[12:16] <Gnea> terryx_: i don't know if more ram will help, but you can try
[12:16] <erry> Hello?
[12:16] <ramon> whats the best recomend application for .swf format in intrepid?
[12:16] <terryx_> Gnea: ok i have noticed one thing, when my computer is idle, it won't freeze, when i use some program or browse my drives its freezes, u think thats a co-incidence?
[12:16] <Gnea> terryx_: at this point, I can help you no longer.
[12:16] <erry> Helo??
[12:16] <dr_willis> moDumass,  what filesystem is the 8gb?
[12:17] <test_of_faith> is this just 1 public forums?
[12:17] <Gnea> !patience | erry
[12:17] <erry> Ok
[12:17] <erry> Im sorry that i want an answer
[12:17] <erry> I wont do that again
[12:17] <terryx_> ok........thanx anyway....u know i someone help me?...i anyway i don;t think so........................
[12:17] <Starnestommy> erry: it depends on what folder it is
[12:17] <erry> it's not a system folder
[12:17] <moDumass> dr_willis, its EXT3
[12:18] <rinsmaster> erry, why do you want to do that? and on what folder?
[12:18] <erry> im not sure ud understand if i explained.
[12:18] <dr_willis> moDumass,  then you will need to check the files/directories permissions and ownership - to see if your user can access them.
[12:18] <rinsmaster> erry, also, what command do you use / what permissions
[12:18] <erry> i right clicked it
[12:18] <erry> and went were it says
[12:18] <erry> properties
[12:18] <Rioting_pacifist> !raid
[12:18] <erry> and permissions
[12:19] <moDumass> dr_willis, when i click ownership it either says "ownership could not be determined" or "root - you do not have permission to change ownership settings
[12:19] <rinsmaster> erry, and where was that folder and who owns it? (see that same tab in the properties dialog)
[12:19] <erry> rinsmaster, apparently root owns it
[12:20] <dr_willis> moDumass,  use the terminal.  if they are not owned by your user you will need to make them owned by the user, with  the proper root ran commands.. 'sudo chown' and 'sudo chmod'
[12:20] <moDumass> thanks dr_willis, readin about it now
[12:21] <rinsmaster> erry, is the folder in your ~ (/home/yourname)?, then you can make it yours without probs, just execute: chown -R yourname path/to/folder
[12:21] <dr_willis> moDumass,  you often have this issue if shareing a ext2/3 hard drive btween diffent linux installs and disrtos.
[12:22] <moDumass> dr_willis,  yeh this is a wierd way they put these together, 2 ssd drives, 1 4gig and 1 8gig, os on one and storage on the other
[12:23] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, do i need to mark REALTEK_PHY or one under Ethernet? My ethernet is Realtek
[12:23] <dr_willis> moDumass,  ahh...  they dont show up as 2 drives? or they are using some sort of unionfs, or other way to merge the 2... I got an AcerAspireOne. :)  so i dont have that issue..
[12:23] <roca> i installed ebox and now cant find the gui
[12:23] <dr_willis> moDumass,  I got 120gb hd. :)
[12:23] <Rioting_pacifist> Is it worth setting up software raid 0 for performance gains, ive got 3 IDE drives lying about will booting up be faster or slowere (due to extra drivers)
[12:24] <Kartagis> how can i find out which module activates my ethernet card?
[12:24] <dr_willis> Kartagis,  look at lsmod output and eliminate  the ones its not? :)
[12:25] <moDumass> dr_willis, no innitially i thought that ubuntu would format both fdrives on install, but it only formatted the 4 giger and installed itself there, and it left the other as ntfs, which it didnt see
[12:25] <dr_willis> Kartagis,  or compare the list to the  nic modules in - err.. some directory i cant rember...
[12:25] <mar> men i ask one answer?
[12:25] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: i would imagine that you do need to, yes. when compiling a custom kernel this is where you need to figure out what's needed for your hardware. i'd have to google your model(which i do not know exact model you have))it myself and look in the menuconfig to see if that kernel option is exactly the right one for it
[12:26] <mar> from greece???
[12:26] <dr_willis>  Kartagis  most nic modules are shown in   /lib/modules/2.6.24-19-generic/kernel/drivers/net
[12:26] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: but my first instinct says yes
[12:27] <roca> i installed ebox and now cant find the gui
[12:27] <Stalker72> What sound card brand has the best Linux drivers?
[12:27] <abhii> whenever i open mutt,inbox is emtpty,but i am able 2 send mails,what maybe d problem?
[12:28] <abhii> if i rum in shell command fetchmail -v some pop's come in terminal,this is wrong right?
[12:28] <dr_willis> !ebox
[12:29] <hischild> dr_willis, ebox is broken on intrepid.
[12:29] <dr_willis> hischild,  get out the glue! :)
[12:29] <hischild> dr_willis, ppa from LP works :-)
[12:29] <hischild> roca, ebox is a webbased administrative panel. Are you running intrepid?
[12:30] <roca> hischild, yes and i just answered my own ? ... aparently they have user guides on their websites... go figure
[12:31] <dr_willis> a program with dcumentation and guides? :)
[12:31] <roca> i know... technology these days... biblical events are at hand :P
[12:32] <abhii> whenever i open mutt,inbox is emtpty,but i am able 2 send mails,what maybe d problem?how to load inbox msg's into mutt,i don's want to use IMAP
[12:32] <matthias_> Hi, i have a problem, right now i am connected wireless to internet by my dlink router but since a couple of days ago i sometimes loos contact with the router by trying to ping the router and it does not respond on the ping but if i connect an cable between the router and my computer i have internet again, my computer shows wireless connection to router becasue i have the icon with 5 bars in color blue so how can i know if my ro
[12:32] <matthias_> uter is to blame or ubunr u????
[12:33] <matthias_> sorry for my spellling
[12:33] <matthias_> ubuntu and outer ...
[12:33] <matthias_> router ...
[12:33] <hischild> roca, you're aware that it is broken on intrepid?
[12:34] <Stalker72> Can someone name a good brand I can buy a soundcard from which has good Linux support?
[12:34] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  i like my creative-audigy cards.. i would avoide creative-xfis
[12:34] <abhii> any mutt users help please.
[12:34] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  but the audigys  are getting rare. :(
[12:34] <roca> hischild, yeah i am punching my self in the crotch. just upgraded lol
[12:34] <Stalker72> dr_willis: Do you know of other brands?
[12:34] <hischild> roca, no need. Get the PPA from LP and update it.
[12:35] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  nope.  If i buy a sound card.. i get Creative...
[12:35] <dr_willis> Stalker72, in this house - its onboard.. or creative add on.
[12:35] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: when you go to do the actual compile, i recommend you use the 'kernel-package' package. it'll create a .deb of your custom kernel for you. and i have some environment variables you can use for it to set the version of your linux-image.deb nicely, if you want them and if you want to copy and paste them into a text file
[12:35] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  actually the Xfi may have linux support by now. Ive not researched them lately
[12:35] <roca> hischild, how so?
[12:35] <Stalker72> dr_willis: Are there any new and good Audigy's?
[12:36] <hischild> roca, the 4th reply on the bugreport --> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ebox/+bug/255368
[12:36] <Evert234> hello.. can somebody help me install the package ndiswrapper-common?
[12:36] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  I think they are slowly being phased out. not sure wht ones are stil in stores. I like my Audigy2zs.   They really dont need to be  the latest and greatest.. thats often what causes problems in linux.
[12:36] <hischild> roca, tried it n worked on my box. Haven't seen a problem with it.
[12:37] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  stick wuith sond cards that have been out a bit - is a safer bet
[12:37] <dr_willis> !hardware
[12:37] <Stalker72> dr_willis: Are they good enough for professional headphones?
[12:37] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  that term means very little to me. what makes Professional so much better then others?
[12:37] <dr_willis> So you can listen to Professional MP3's ?
[12:37] <Stalker72> dr_willis: Well, professional headphones require good soundcard ;)
[12:37] <onetinsoldier> dr_willis: creatvie open-sourced the x-fi driver a couple of months ago. i am hoping for a good open source driver for it in the future. however, it is possible to compile and install the one they released in November
[12:37] <matthias_> Stalker72:  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsSoundCards
[12:37] <dr_willis> sound quality is subjective. :) so   i doubt if anyone can answer that wuestion.
[12:38] <roca> hischild, ok done thanks ... so i just put in the ip address/ebox?
[12:38] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  that sounds like a recursive  definition...
[12:38] <Stalker72> matthias_ and dr_willis: Thanks!
[12:38] <dr_willis> onetinsoldier,  so avoide X-Fi unless you want to do some work.. for now.. :)
[12:38] <onetinsoldier> dr_willis: yes
[12:39] <dr_willis> My Audigy2zs is like.. 3+ yrs old. :) its outlasted like 5 pc's

[12:40] <Evert234> im trying to install ndiswrapper in terminal (sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-common), but it says 'E: Could not find the package ndiswrapper-common', can somebody help me?
[12:40] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier*
[12:40] <hischild> roca, Don't have ebox on this box, that's on my pc at home. try man ebox or something, perhaps read up on the docs.
[12:40] <imachine> hi
[12:40] <Stalker72> dr_willis: Asus is not on the list on that website you linked to
[12:40] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: yes?
[12:40] <imachine> I downloaded packages from launchpad
[12:40] <imachine> how can I get them to work? they're not .deb files.
[12:40] <Stalker72> dr_willis: That soundcard is not X-Fi though.
[12:40] <roca> hischild, lol k thanks
[12:41] <imachine> just a folder with a bunch of files inside.
[12:41] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, thank you :)
[12:41] <imachine> how can I make that into .deb ?
[12:41] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  i said earlier. i ONLY use creative sound cards. :)   Ive had good luck with most all of them.. except the x-fi
[12:41] <matthias_> anybody knows how to faultsearch if the wireless in muy computer is to blame ot the router it self, i believe the router but not sure ...
[12:41] <Stalker72> dr_willis: Ok :P
[12:41] <imachine> dr_willis, I had a vortex once, it was spot on.
[12:41] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  most of the terms in that cards description.. mean nothing to me at all. :)
[12:42] <imachine> got it for $10 and sold it for $30 5 years later.
[12:42] <imachine> maybe 3 years ;)
[12:42] <Stalker72> dr_willis: I have Bose Companion 5 speakers right now. They have a soundcard integrated in the subwoofer. If I buy headphones and a soundcard, will I be able to switch between those two audio sources easily?
[12:42] <Rictoo> I've been searching on google to no avail: How would I set up alsa to output sound to two seperate sound cards simulteniously?
[12:42] <dr_willis> Ultra Fidelity 7.1 PCI Sound Card -  means so much more to me then 'not-quite-so-ultra-fidelity' :)
[12:42] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: you're welcome :-) are you interested in using the kernel-package program(it's a bash script)? would you like the environment variable command for it?
[12:42] <Evert234> this is the how to which says how i have to install ndiswrapper, i'm trying to get my Siemens Gigaset Usb Adapter 108  running

[12:42] <imachine> anyway, can someone help me sort out the issue with those pacages?
[12:42] <MrWhammy> Hi all, small question here: I have an ntfs-partition containing all my music. Unfortunately if I start Rythmbox before I mount the partition (by clicking it in Places, Removable media), it loses track of all files and when I start it again it has to reload all files (40 gig, takes about 10 minutes). Very annoying, so two questions: why does Ubuntu think my ntfs-partition is removable media and why doesn't it automount?
[12:42] <webmaster> Кто шарит на русском.
[12:42] <imachine> how can I package files
[12:42] <webmaster> ?
[12:42] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  No idea. I normally plug in my speakers and let them alone for years on end.. occasionally i put in headphones in the heaphone jack
[12:42] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, yes i am :)
[12:42] <imachine> webmaster, try #ubuntu.ru or smth
[12:43] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  yoru speakers proberly cost more then my whole PC.
[12:43] <Stalker72> dr_willis: xD
[12:43] <ramon> i am trying to install some stuff and in the terminal i get a message saying i dont have enough space in device...i install a new hard drive and i dont know how to use it for purpose...anyone able to help me?...the hard drive is already in use and working though
[12:44] <anstei>  hi, i just upgraded to ubuntu 8.10 from 8.04. pidgin worked fine before, but now it says that tls/ssl libs are missing, but in aptitude they seem to be installed. any ideas besides compiling myself?
[12:44] <memphis_> evert93, which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[12:44] <dr_willis> ramon,  you actually configured the hard drive in some way? or did ya just plug it in and expect it to work?
[12:44] <Evert234> 8.10
[12:44] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: ok.. you know how to install it i imagine...   apt-get install kernel-package
[12:44] <sinbox> Rictoo, not sure you can with just alsa go ask in #alsa
[12:44] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: here's how to run it...
[12:44] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: 1)  make-kpkg clean ; export VER=$(date +'%Y%m%d') NAMEEXT="-$(hostname)-$(dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH)"
[12:44] <Rictoo> thanks sinbox
[12:45] <Stalker72> dr_willis: Ohh wait.. There's a pod connected to the speakers which has two holes; one for headphones and one for mic (I think).. I might be able to use it for headphones.
[12:45] <memphis_> hit applications --> add/remove software and search for Windows Drivers (or something like that)
[12:45] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: 2) make-kpkg --revision=$VER --append-to-version=$NAMEEXT --rootcmd --initrd kernel_image kernel_headers modules_image
[12:45] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  often if you got somthing in the headphones jack. it auto-disabvles the  speakers.
[12:45] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: wait.. i need to redo #2
[12:45] <Stalker72> dr_willis: That's fine.
[12:45] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: 2) make-kpkg --revision=$VER --append-to-version=$NAMEEXT --initrd kernel_image kernel_headers modules_image
[12:45] <dr_willis> Stalker72,  of course i wonder how one gets 5.1+ sound out of a headphone jack to high end speakers... seems like somthings going to get lost.
[12:46] <matthias_> ramon:  what do you mean ???, if the HD is full then you can not i guess by checking with df it will tell if the hard drive is full or not
[12:46] <cizra> Hi
[12:46] <cizra> How to see the major/minor device numbers in Ubuntu?
[12:46] <cizra> In debian the "file" utility shows them
[12:46] <ramon> dr_willis i did installed the hard drive and is working...i even set it up for manage it on the graphical interface...but this is one of the messages which is the problem..../usr/bin/mandb: can't write to /var/cache/man/ko/5849: No space left on device
[12:46] <Evert234> memphis, do i need a internet connection to do that? im trying to set up a connection, so i don't have one right now
[12:46] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, do i run it before or after the make?
[12:46] <Stalker72> dr_willis: Oohh. I have one more question. I think Linux finds my speakers as 2.1 speakers (they are physically 2.1), but they produce 5.1 sound. How do I solve that? :P
[12:47] <Evert234> Siemens Gigaset Usb adapter 108 is a WLAN receiver
[12:47] <dr_willis> ramon,  where is the new drive being mounted to? just mounting it will not free up space on the first hard drive.. You may nee dto move your /home/ or other  directories over to it..  to  free ups pace on the first hd.
[12:47] <ramon> dr_willis in /media/mynewdrive
[12:47] <memphis_> yea, you need a working internet connection for the install of ndiswrapper
[12:48] <sinbox> Evert234, not sure you need ndiswrapper for this one
[12:49] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: you do the make menuconfig. then i recommend you make a backup of your .config file, like so --> cp -v .config ../config-config-linux-2.6.28-rc7-git1 (for example).    then... run the 'make-kpkg commands i gave you
[12:49] <leon> hi
[12:49] <leon> merry chris all
[12:50] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: you never do the 'make' command.. the 'make-kpkg' command i gave replace the 'make' command
[12:50] <leon> anyone use wicd on ubuntu?
[12:51] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: the 'make-kpkg' commands i gave you replace doing the 'make' command. understood?
[12:51]  * cizra feels ignored )=
[12:51] <leon> i stall wicd on ubuntu , but now ubuntu startup very slow!
[12:51] <Kartagis> yes thanks
[12:52] <Dompie> Hi, does anyone know why VLC won't stream wma2 audio?
[12:52] <onetinsoldier> cizra: good question, just keep asking it every 5 minutes or so. you'll get an answer eventually
[12:53] <anstei>  hi, i just upgraded to ubuntu 8.10 from 8.04. pidgin worked fine before, but now it says that tls/ssl libs are missing, but in aptitude they seem to be installed. any ideas besides compiling myself?
[12:53] <ramon> dr_willis you there?
[12:53] <cizra> onetinsoldier: Heh. Well, actually I'm trying to figure out the major/minors for /dev/hda1. Happen to have one?
[12:53] <dr_willis> hmmm?
[12:53] <sinbox> actually Evert234 my mistakes it seems you do need ndiswrapper, and you do need an internet connection of some sort to get the drivers
[12:53] <leon> ramon , you can search apt-cache search ssl
[12:54] <orgthingy> so, i messed up with permissions again and wanna use chown to fix this
[12:54] <cizra> anstei: ldd `which pidgin`, check if the libs are there
[12:54] <orgthingy> but i seem to have little problem: chown: cannot access `/home/orgthingy/.gvfs': Permission
[12:54] <sinbox> Dompie, ask in #videolan channel
[12:54] <dr_willis> ramon,  mounting the new drive someplace does not free up any space on the other drive.
[12:54] <ramon> leon would you explain
[12:54] <cizra> anstei: Perhaps you compiled pidgin yourself?
[12:54] <leon> let me check
[12:54] <ramon> dr_willis i know that but how i do then?
[12:54] <leon> private msh to me
[12:54] <onetinsoldier> cizra: have you tried  ls -l /dev/hda1  ??
[12:54] <Dompie> sinbox: ok thnsk
[12:55] <orgthingy> nvm, i solved problem after asking :P bye
[12:55] <dr_willis> ramon,  move stuff over.. mount new drive in  proper place..  ie: if you decide to move all of /homes over.. then mount new drive at /homes
[12:55] <rinsmaster> anstei, check to which version pidgin is compiled, do: ldd /usr/bin/pidgin
[12:55] <MrWhammy>  have an ntfs-partition containing all my music. Unfortunately if I start Rythmbox before I mount the partition (by clicking it in Places, Removable media), it loses track of all files and when I start it again it has to reload all files (40 gig, takes about 10 minutes). Very annoying, so two questions: why does Ubuntu think my ntfs-partition is removable media and why doesn't it automount? Or better, how can I fix it :) ? It used
[12:55] <rinsmaster> anstei, then check which version you have in /usr/lib
[12:55] <dr_willis> ramon,  or move /tmp over and link /tmp to /media/newdrive/tmp
[12:55] <dr_willis> ramon,  totally depends on yoru system and setup and whats taking up all the space
[12:56] <cizra> onetinsoldier: O, really, thanks
[12:56] <ramon> dr_willis  how do i mount the hd to become part of the system then?
[12:57] <onetinsoldier> cizra: did that work ok for you. get you what you were looking for?
[12:57] <dr_willis> ramon,  edit fstab.. same as you set any other mountpoint
[12:57] <cizra> onetinsoldier: Well, I learned how to see the device numbers
[12:57] <cizra> onetinsoldier: Still have to find out the right numbers, though.
[12:58] <onetinsoldier> cizra: ok...
[12:58] <onetinsoldier> cizra: i don't have an hda1.. mine are /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2
[12:58] <cizra> onetinsoldier: Yes, that's the Ubuntu way
[12:58] <hspaans> ubuntu way?
[12:59] <onetinsoldier> cizra: brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 1 2008-12-25 19:11 /dev/sda1
[12:59] <cizra> hspaans: Yes, Ubuntu prefers to access all disks through SCSI emulation
[12:59] <cizra> onetinsoldier: Doesn't help, but still thanks
[12:59] <onetinsoldier> cizra: ok, roger
[13:00] <dr_willis> more and more disrots are doing the 'every disk is a scsi disk' way now a datys it seems
[13:00] <hspaans> cizra: no, its kernel 2.6 and sata, it has nothing todo with ubuntu
[13:00] <anstei> rinsmaster: libnspr4.so.0d, libnss3.so.1d and libssl3so.1d are there as they should be
[13:01] <cizra> hspaans: Not only SATA, IDE drives are sd* in Ubuntu as well.
[13:01] <rinsmaster> anstei, strange then, try reinstalling pidgin
[13:02] <hspaans> cizra: yes that is kernel 2.6 since they are rewriting the IDE-subsystem
[13:02] <cizra> hspaans: Well, are you claiming that ALL kernel 2.6 uses /dev/sd* for all disks?
[13:02] <cizra> hspaans: You must be mistaken because mine does not.
[13:02] <hspaans> cizra: there is nothing ubuntu about it
[13:03] <hspaans> cizra: which part of rewrite did you not understand?
[13:03] <cizra> hspaans: Well, I personally have my IDE disks as /dev/hd*. And I am truly running kernel 2.6. How do you explain that?
[13:03] <isle85> Hi, I try to find help to create a package for Ubuntu. The program is a java one, which doesn't need any compilation.
[13:04] <hspaans> cizra: then you're chipset is still running in pata-mode instead of sata-mode
[13:04] <cizra> hspaans: Mm.. OK
[13:05] <dr_willis> cizra,  from what ive seen - it often depends on the chipset/machine - i got one box that  shows hd's as hd. :) and the satas as sd. but its an old machine
[13:05] <cizra> Oh geez
[13:05] <Valenstein> hello! can anyone help?
[13:05]  * cizra is mucking around in initrds trying to make his ext4 root mount again
[13:05] <hischild> !ask | Valenstein
[13:06] <Valenstein> ok...
[13:06] <hspaans> cizra: but just use LVM or UUID to get rid of the issues
[13:06] <isle85> need help to create an Ubuntu package
[13:07] <cizra> hspaans: I use LVM, it's nifty. But now I don't have a kernel/initrd combo capable of mounting my ext4 root )=
[13:07] <gizmo> what is 'su' <--means
[13:07] <ortsvorsteher> gizmo: su means switch user...
[13:07] <cizra> hspaans: I haven't had so much fun for ages.
[13:07] <incidence> man su
[13:07] <dr_willis> gizmo,  learn to use 'sudo' not 'su'
[13:07] <dr_willis> !sudo | gizmo
[13:07] <hspaans> cizra: ok ;-)
[13:08] <cizra> dr_willis: sudo su 9=
[13:08] <hspaans> cizra: if you think lvm is nifty, try zfs and zfsboot on solaris ;-)
[13:08] <onetinsoldier> cizra: if you wish to find out the UUID of a device to put into your fstab, install 'blkid'
[13:09] <dr_willis> ciza what are we trying to do? one does not need to do 'sudo su'  -- Use 'sudo -s'
[13:09] <Zmajci> After upgrading from gutsy to hardy, numeric pad don't work: i suppose it must be something with X keyb configuration that conflicts with gnome. The command for re-setting x? dpkg ?? (thanks)
[13:09] <rinsmaster> or sudo bash :P
[13:09] <dr_willis> do NOT use sudo su, or sudo bash. use 'sudo -s' or 'sudo -i'
[13:09] <cizra> dr_willis: Heh, indeed. Didn't know about that one.
[13:09] <cizra> dr_willis: Why NOT sudo su?
[13:10] <dr_willis> http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/05/09/a-root-shell-on-ubuntu-the-right-way/
[13:10] <dr_willis> go read
[13:10] <brutus> where does the command- "bunzip2 -c xxx.tar.bz2 | tar xf - " unpack the stuff to?
[13:10] <dr_willis>  its redunaant and MAY not set up the settings properly cizra
[13:10] <Valenstein> i am novice in ubuntu so... when i try to install something in terminal it asks for root user password... what to do?
[13:10] <cizra> brutus: PWD
[13:10] <mannn26> yups
[13:10] <cizra> dr_willis: OK
[13:10] <cizra> brutus: .. assuming tar has removed the leading slashes, which it usually does.
[13:11] <brutus> cizra, thank you
[13:11] <onetinsoldier> sudo su? kinda redundant seems to me
[13:11] <ortsvorsteher> Valenstein: try to give him your user password
[13:12] <Valenstein> tried... doesn't work..
[13:12] <ortsvorsteher> Valenstein: how do you install programs? with sudo?
[13:12] <gizmo> so im not the root?
[13:12] <dr_willis> command line tools to do 'system type tasks' MUST use sudo normally
[13:12] <onetinsoldier> Valenstein: what are you trying to install?
[13:13] <dr_willis> sudo SOME-special-system-altering-command
[13:13] <dr_willis> :)
[13:13] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, I have a different question. i want to make an image of a cd. should i use genisoimage or dd?
[13:13] <eugene_> hi! I am rather new to Ubuntu and have a problems that I can't solve. :( Could anyone help me?
[13:13] <ortsvorsteher> just ask eugene_
[13:13] <cizra> Kartagis: Um, do you want to copy the CD into the hard disk or vice versa?
[13:13] <onetinsoldier> Valenstein: sudo apt-get install <package_name>
[13:14] <Valenstein> hmm... i just typing "./Install" while in the directory the file is there... install is the file that i need to run...
[13:14] <Kartagis> cizra, i want to make an iso file
[13:14] <cizra> Valenstein: sudo ./Install then. What's that package, by the way?
[13:14] <dmizer> need a graphical sftp client ... filezilla is a no go because i can't use the my openssh keys. sshfs is a no go because i don't want to allow shell access. what other options do i have here?
[13:14] <cizra> Kartagis: mkisofs or genisoimage then
[13:14] <cizra> Kartagis: .. if you want to make it out of files lying around your hard drive
[13:14] <cizra> Kartagis: or dd if you want to make it out of an existing CD.
[13:14] <gizmo> in using my terminal..how im going to be a root?
[13:14] <Zygot> eugene_: you need to elaborate a little
[13:14] <Kartagis> !anyone | eugene_
[13:15] <cizra> gizmo: sudo -s makes you a root
[13:15] <dmizer> gizmo: to get a root prompt, type sudo -i
[13:15] <dr_willis> http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/05/09/a-root-shell-on-ubuntu-the-right-way/
[13:16] <eugene_> Thanks! Basically the problem is that all the games here crash. The video freezes with some weird artifact on the screen. I ran the hardware test and it says that my resolution is "impossible with fglrx". My resolution should be 1920x1200. I tried installing the latest ATI drivers but that doesn't help
[13:16] <Zygot> eugene_: ouch
[13:16] <dmizer> gizmo ... or just prefix all your commands with "sudo" and avoid the root prompt all together.
[13:16] <amalji> where can i get 3d games for ubuntu ?
[13:16] <Valenstein> yes.. sudo ./Install... it's package of internet dialer installer... so it asks for root password..
[13:16] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: hmmm, i don't do much of that kind of thing. i would think might end up wanto to use both... piping the dd into genisoimage? i don't now really. seems like you'd need to make the image of your filesystem, then pass it along to the genisoimage. but let me know if you find out the correct way to do it!
[13:16] <amalji> I would like to test my graphics card performance on ubuntu
[13:17] <wet> alalji, getdeb
[13:17] <Dvyjones> Hi! I'm trying to compile WINE with OpenGL, but it complains about no OpenGL-library on the system. Which packages do I need to install to get OpenGL libraries?
[13:17] <Zmajci> After upgrade, the numeric pad does not work (num lock IS on), everything else is ok. Some ideas on why?
[13:17] <cizra> amalji: aptitude install openarena
[13:17] <cizra> Dvyjones: something with mesa
[13:17] <Zygot> Kartagis: rip the cd?
[13:17] <sidewalk> what application do you guys recommend for sharing optical devices from one Ubuntu machine to another Ubuntu machine?
[13:17] <sidewalk> sharing over the network
[13:18] <Kartagis> onetinsoldier, I am using genisoimage -R -o file.iso /media/cdrom0
[13:18] <cizra> sidewalk: ssh (=
[13:18] <selkies> guys how can i make dual boot after reinstalling d xp ??
[13:18] <dr_willis> sidewalk,  nfs can do that, or samba has ways to automount the optical disk.
[13:18] <Dvyjones> cizra: libgl1-mesa-dev?
[13:18] <cizra> Kartagis: OMG
[13:18] <dr_willis> sidewalk,  or use sshfs.
[13:18] <Valenstein> cizra: yes.. sudo ./Install... it's package of internet dialer installer... so it asks for root password..
[13:18] <Kartagis> Zygot, no, I want to make a perfect copy
[13:18] <cizra> Kartagis: Why didn't you say you're trying to copy a CD into your computer?
[13:18] <eugene_> Zygot: is that some kind of common problem?
[13:18] <onetinsoldier> Kartagis: ok.. i was just going to say, i reread your message. yeah.. i think all you need is genisoimage
[13:18] <dmizer> a gui sftp client. filezilla is a no go. any ideas?
[13:18] <amalji> thank you cizra
[13:18] <cizra> Valenstein: ohm. umm.. well, make a root password?
[13:18] <amalji> :)
[13:18] <cizra> Dvyjones: I dunno
[13:18] <Valenstein> cizra: how?
[13:19] <cizra> Valenstein: type sudo passwd root
[13:19] <Kartagis> cizra, I said I want to make an iso image didn't I?
[13:19] <cizra> Kartagis: You didn't say out of what.
[13:19] <hischild> cizra, Please don't suggest setting a root password unless you'll be here 24/7 to help with the problems.
[13:19] <cizra> hischild: eh. Well, if a script asks for a root password.. OK, I'll shut up now.
[13:19] <amalji> any 3d strategy games on linux ?
[13:20] <Dvyjones> !opengl
[13:20] <Valenstein> well... i have to go thanks for the help!
[13:20] <hischild> cizra, then run the script as root
[13:20] <fivetwentysix> amalji: linux people don't play games..
[13:20] <dr_willis> amalji,  warzone2020 I think is one. :) depends on what you need/want
[13:20] <amalji> yeah.. .I know.... :)
[13:20] <dr_willis> !find warzone
[13:20] <sh1m0n> Hi, I'm new to ubuntu and after installing, which worked pretty fine, i habe a little issue with my apple keyboard. The "<" and "^" are substituted. Using the Keyboard Manager (don't know the exact Name of it) didn't help to change those two keys.... Does anyone have any advice ?
[13:20] <dr_willis> oops 2100 :) not 2020
[13:21] <cizra> fivetwentysix: wrong (=
[13:21] <selkies> will it still dual boot after reinstalling xp ?
[13:21] <amalji> Even I don't play it... Just wanted to try out how it works... So that I can turn a few game freaks into linux users.. :)
[13:21] <hischild> fivetwentysix, i still game loads.
[13:21] <fivetwentysix> sh1m0n, You forgot to set the keyboard type..
[13:21] <cizra> amalji: OpenGL strategy? Warzone1100
[13:21] <sidewalk> so samba is the best way to share optical devices over the network?
[13:21] <cizra> amalji: Or, yeah, whatever the number was
[13:21] <eugene_> so is there really no ideas about "impossible with fglrx resolution"? :'(
[13:21] <sidewalk> with automount and stuff like that
[13:21] <dr_willis> sidewalk, its one way.. it depends on the details
[13:21] <fivetwentysix> sh1m0n, Goto system - > preferences - > keyboard
[13:21] <sh1m0n> i set it up as an aplle keyboard
[13:21] <cizra> sh1m0n: xmodmap
[13:21] <dr_willis> sidewalk,  automounting new media may be a bit more complex.. You could just share /media/
[13:22] <sh1m0n> xmodmap?
[13:22] <cizra> sh1m0n: (the difficult but powerful way)
[13:22] <sidewalk> dr_willis: well i pretty much want to stick a cd or a dvd in one machine, and have them appear on another machine
[13:22] <sh1m0n> :-s
[13:22] <cizra> sh1m0n: So, try other ways first (=
[13:22] <selkies> will it still dual boot after reinstalling xp ?
[13:22] <sh1m0n> i will, u know any other?
[13:22] <dr_willis> sidewalk,  i dont think thats going to automacially happen.
[13:22] <Zmajci> selkies: XP will overwrite grub... make sure you have a supergrub disk on hand :)
[13:22] <cizra> selkies: Prolly not, it'll run over your boto loader with a steam roller, I guess.
[13:22] <dmizer> i need a gui sftp client. i'm using xubuntu (no nautils) filezilla doesn't work. help?
[13:23] <dr_willis> sidewalk,  i even HATE that automount/popup stuff on a local machine. :)
[13:23] <sidewalk> dr_willis: so you mean that there are applications for this for Mac OSX, but not for Ubuntu?
[13:23] <hischild> dmizer, sshfs ?
[13:23] <selkies> Zmajci: wat is supergrub... plz elaborate
[13:23] <dmizer> hischild sshfs doesn't work because i don't have a shell on the server.
[13:23] <dr_willis> sidewalk,  my APple Machine is a DoorStop.
[13:23] <selkies> cizra: how can i then make it dual boot?..
[13:23] <hischild> dmizer, you got ssh access?
[13:24] <dr_willis> sidewalk,  If you want to compare/contrast/rant/rave about OS's thats for the Offtopic channel.
[13:24] <dmizer> hischild no.
[13:24] <dmizer> hischild i can sftp in with winscp without a problem though.
[13:24] <sidewalk> dr_willis: no, i want a solution for my two ubuntu machines, for a problem which Mac OSX already has solved
[13:24] <mkultra> hello
[13:24] <dr_willis> sidewalk,  it can be done with samba - ive seen it done ages ago or at least somthing similer. but  you are getting onto the deeper layers of the OS.  GnomeAutoMounting -> samba-> remote-box automounting stuff.. so thers a lot of  things that can do wrong.
[13:25] <ortsvorsteher> !hello
[13:25] <dr_willis> sidewalk,  i would use sshfs to mount  /media/  and see if that work
[13:25] <hischild> dmizer, from what i know that also uses ssh for it's connections.
[13:25] <ANDIKYU> rtrrtrttr
[13:25] <Zmajci> selkies: supergrub is an utility... http://www.supergrubdisk.org/
[13:25] <ANDIKYU> hk
[13:25] <dmizer> hischild yes it does, but it does not get a shell.
[13:26] <dmizer> hischild sshfs requires a shell.
[13:26] <cizra> selkies: um, someone mentioned supergrub or something
[13:26] <dmizer> hischild i am trying to connect to a chrooted sftp server.
[13:26] <fivetwentysix> sigh
[13:26] <ANDIKYU> arief
[13:26] <hischild> dmizer, i see. Sorry then, out of idea's.
[13:26] <dmizer> hischild yeesh.
[13:27] <selkies> Zmajci: so after reinstalling xp.. will i need it to run from xp (supergrub)
[13:27] <cizra> selkies: no, it's probably a bootable CD
[13:28] <selkies> cizra: can u elaborate on how to use it.. i am quite new to linux..
[13:29] <cizra> selkies: I have no idea, I've never seen it. But I bet it's an ISO image you need to download and burn, then boot the computer from the supergrub CD.
[13:30]  * hspaans notices that this can also be done with the livecd
[13:30] <Zmajci> selkies: if you reinstall XP on a dual boot machine, XP will overwrite grub (bootloader). With supergrub you can re-install your dual boot loader. Supergrub is an utility: you can use it from XP or from a floppy or CD (check out the web page http://www.supergrubdisk.org/ )
[13:30] <mne> hi. How can I enable the "exposee" feature in compiz that is similar to Mac OS X ? I already enabled the "expo" compiz plugin.  Which IRC server is better please?
[13:32] <CastilleV> Just curious. But if you uninstall a program, isn't there a command to delete any orphaned files and old directories?
[13:33] <hspaans> CastilleV: which files/dirs?
[13:33] <jacobw-uk> CastilleV: rings a bell. google for deborphan
[13:33] <jacobw-uk> CastilleV: i'm pretty sure dpkg can do that
[13:34] <CastilleV> I mean, like. Lets say I uninstall firefox or opera. Isn't there a directory even after its uninstalled?
[13:34] <hspaans> CastilleV: /etc/package.config for example or /var/cache/package? then purge the package
[13:34] <CastilleV> Alright. I was curious about that.
[13:34] <hischild> !ci | aiikii

[13:35] <petur> Hi friends, im looking for an xmms-like player..to be used from the CLI

[13:36] <petur> hmm
[13:36] <petur> and bout my player :)
[13:36] <petur> any ideas?
[13:36] <CastilleV> like sudo apt-get autoremove firefox -purge?

[13:38] <Halitech> petur, I don't know much about it but its supposed to be for music on console so hopefully it will be what you need

[13:47] <onetinsoldier> ya
[13:47] <cizra> snypzz: Perhaps you meant Ubuntu CE?
[13:47] <snypzz> ok...?
[13:47] <onetinsoldier> v4vijayakumar: i can be a terrible typist sometimes
[13:47] <silv3r_m00n> hi there
[13:47] <silv3r_m00n> i installed phppgadmin... now how can i access it from the browser ?
[13:47] <onetinsoldier> howdy

[13:48] <silv3r_m00n> waht shud be the url ?
[13:48] <snypzz> Ubutu CE does it work on the Cingular 8925...?
[13:49] <onetinsoldier> v4vijayakumar: ok, completely uninstall the mozilla-plugin-gnash  --> apt-get --purge mozilla-plugin-gnash
[13:49] <zwobble> hey there
[13:49] <v4vijayakumar> onetinsoldier: any codecs missing in my system ??
[13:49] <zwobble> im looking for a DownloadSpeed manager, I'd like to cap my Klibido Download speed
[13:49] <hischild> onetinsoldier, apt-get remove --purge
[13:50] <zwobble> Is there something like that available for Ubuntu?
[13:50] <onetinsoldier> hischild: oops, thanks
[13:50] <onetinsoldier> i am too used to just using dpkg
[13:50] <hischild> onetinsoldier, np
[13:50] <onetinsoldier> v4vijayakumar: completely uninstall the mozilla-plugin-gnash  --> apt-get remove --purge mozilla-plugin-gnash
[13:50] <mrwes> silv3r_m00n: you tried http://localhost/phppgadmin
[13:51] <mrwes> or http://<IP_ADDRESS>/phppgadmin
[13:51] <onetinsoldier> v4vijayakumar: you probably aren't missing any codecs. it's a flash on x86_64 issue
[13:51] <silv3r_m00n> mrwes: yeah ...didnt work
[13:51] <cizra> snypzz: Sorry, I was poking fun out of you. There is no Ubuntu CE, nor Ubunt Mobile (as far as I know). And I don't know if that Cingular thingie would run Linux. Try http://justfuckinggoogleit.com.
[13:51] <mrwes> silv3r_m00n: you might need a symbolic link: sudo ln -s /usr/share/phppgadmin /var/www/phppgadmin
[13:51] <onetinsoldier> v4vijayakumar: after removing mozilla-plugin-gnash, go here --> http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
[13:52] <mrwes> type that from a terminla
[13:52] <v4vijayakumar> but, I am able to see some videos
[13:52] <mrwes> terminal*

[13:52] <snypzz> it's going to be AWSOME !!!!
[13:52] <onetinsoldier> v4vijayakumar: at the bottom of that page download flash for x86_64
[13:53] <silv3r_m00n> mrwes: i mean whatever symlinks are there
[13:53] <silv3r_m00n> mrwes: it worked
[13:53] <mrwes> silv3r_m00n: look in /var/www and then do a ls -al
[13:53] <onetinsoldier> v4vijayakumar: then close out firefox... tell me when you've done all that
[13:54] <mrwes> :)
[13:54] <v4vijayakumar> ok done, I have done it through synaptic package manager
[13:54] <zwobble> Is there a bandwidth manager for Ubuntu?
[13:55] <silv3r_m00n> mrwes: i went into phpphadmin ... but like i need to provide a password....while installation from synaptic it never asked me for a password :-?
[13:55] <tony_> This is probably a stupid question, but I need help making my gigabeat mp3 player with rockbox read/write so I can actually put music on it.
[13:55] <silv3r_m00n> now what is the username and password
[13:56] <onetinsoldier> v4vijayakumar: ok... now  cd ~/.mozilla && mkdir plugins

[13:57] <silv3r_m00n> mrwes: what is the commandline command for postgresql ?

[13:59] <tony_> How can I change the permissions on my mp3 player so I can add music to it?
[13:59] <onetinsoldier> v4vijayakumar: ok, are you in ~/.mozilla and have you made the 'plugins' directory in there?
[14:00] <v4vijayakumar> onetinsoldier, ~/.mozilla/firefox/plugin or ~/.mozilla/plugin   ??
[14:00] <onetinsoldier> v4vijayakumar: ok... now  cd ~/.mozilla && mkdir plugins

[14:01] <v4vijayakumar> onetinsoldier, ~/.mozilla/firefox/plugins or ~/.mozilla/plugins   ??

[14:02] <cizra> Any ideas on how to debug balky bootloaders on headless boxes? For some reason the boot process stalls somewhere and since the box is headless, I'm out of ideas.
[14:02] <tony_> How can I change the permissions on my mp3 player so I can add music to it?
[14:02] <jacobw-uk> cizra: difficult heh
[14:02] <v4vijayakumar> onetinsoldier, done ~/.mozilla/plugins
[14:03] <bashca> how can resolve this  error Errors were encountered while processing:

[14:03] <cizra> jacobw-uk: I'm not even sure the kernel loads -- the USB stick LED doesn't blink all that much. But it loads on a, um, headful box.
[14:03] <onetinsoldier> v4vijayakumar: ok, good...  now tar -xzvf /path/to/libflashplayer-10.0.d21.1.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz -C .
[14:04] <imanaligator2> can any one give me a tip of a easy to use ftp server with an easy gui
[14:04] <AMDMutant> cizra: so make a head
[14:04] <cizra> AMDMutant: Give 'em a head, right. But I can't, this is a laptop with a dead video card.
[14:04] <AMDMutant> cizra: cool
[14:04] <jacobw-uk> cizra: i don't really have any experience with stuff like that but i'd stick a monitor on it until i got it net booting fine before i went headless
[14:05] <jacobw-uk> ahh ok
[14:05] <onetinsoldier> v4vijayakumar: once you done that, open up firefox and put in the address bar  -->  about:plugins   ..see that it's installed, look at the version and make sure it looks correct
[14:05] <jacobw-uk> cizra: is there an external monitor port on the laptop?
[14:05] <cizra> Yes, but the video card is dead.
[14:05] <jacobw-uk> oh right yeah
[14:05] <AMDMutant> cizra: buy a new one
[14:06] <cizra> Also, this is the lesser of two problems -- my main one is that I can't make an initrd able to boot my ext4 root...
[14:06] <cizra> AMDMutant: And stick it where? I believe they're soldered in.
[14:06] <jacobw-uk> cizra: you sound quite an exotic user :p
[14:06] <AMDMutant> cizra: new laptop
[14:06] <cizra> AMDMutant: Buy? Why? I got this one for free (=
[14:06] <bashca> any help  please ??

[14:10] <DarkKnight> hey anyone tell me how to edit httpd.conf

[14:34] <cizra> lore20: echo xterm > ~/.xinitr # beware, this could hose something
[14:35] <cizra> leon: dmesg | grep eth should show something
[14:35] <nibbler_> lore20: check your mac adress, google for the first 3 dual-hex
[14:35] <onetinsoldier> lore20: anyone got any ideas for lore20? his Xorg.0.log file seems to contain some problem at the very top of it  --> _XSERVTransSocketCreateListener: failed to bind listener   _XSERVTransSocketUNIXCreateListener: ...SocketCreateListener() failed  _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to create listener for unix
[14:35] <leon> thx
[14:35] <cizra> boss: More chance with English

[14:37] <cizra> lore20: well, this ought to be right. So you say X comes up but xterm isn't launched?
[14:37] <lore20> yes

[14:40] <leon> the site too slow for me
[14:40] <onetinsoldier> boss: your description looks good. you might want to include url's for pastebin's of your....  /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0log files in it
[14:40] <Zmajci> after upgrading numpad don't work properly (it moves the cursor instead of typing numbers). reconfigured xorg.conf, it doesn't help. any suggestions?
[14:40] <pfct> Can anyone help with mounting a Sony-Ericsson W980 phone in mass storage mode on 8.10?
[14:40] <lore20> i tried "gdm" from tty and it says "X Server has been disabled. Restart GDM after you configure it correctly
[14:41] <onetinsoldier> boss: that last one should be...   /var/log/Xorg.0.log  ..sorry
[14:41] <lore20> i tried "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg".. but it configure only keyboard
[14:42] <lore20> there is any way to set xorg.conf?
[14:42] <leon> there's irc for ubuntu NM group?

[14:42] <littlefish> anyone know what should i do,if i want to connect to the Internet though the twist cable,not the wireless .
[14:43] <cizra> littlefish: plug in the cable, then run sudo dhclient eth0
[14:43] <guestguestnew> if i have a router connected to the internet. and if i connect one of its ports to another router, would that be ok? would PCs connected to the second router get an internet connection alright?
[14:43] <littlefish> how should i configure my Ubuntu system?
[14:43] <boss> onetinsoldier : i will send you that file
[14:43] <cizra> littlefish: I guess the Gnome network manager should be able to help you?
[14:43] <onetinsoldier> lore20:  i know i posted the errors at the top of your log file.. but i also see this in it. it's not considered and erorr apparently, but it somehow it doesn't seem like a good thing to me  -->  (WW) intel(0): Bad V_BIOS checksum
[14:44] <AMDMutant> pfct: you got modem?
[14:44] <littlefish> okay .let me have a try.thax.
[14:44] <pfct> I have this line in lsusb Bus 003 Device 004: ID 0fce:e0da Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB. How do I mount this?
[14:44] <pfct> AMDMutant: I have the internal modem with my Dell Inspiron 1501
[14:45] <mortuis99> Happy Hollidays..  i am trying to empty my trash and i cant get rid of 2 Dir( and the files they contain)  can i force empty it?
[14:45] <onetinsoldier> boss: please don't send me file without asking me first..  please just make your problem description like you have it, but ass url's for pastebin's of your xorg.conf and your Xorg.0.log file in it. for posting to the channel here, not to me. in case you don't know what pastebin is...
[14:45] <AMDMutant> pfct: you can use your W980 as gsm modem
[14:45] <cizra> pfct: Umm, why do you think you can mount it at all?
[14:45] <onetinsoldier> !pastebin | boss
[14:46] <onetinsoldier> s/ass/add
[14:46] <onetinsoldier> lol
[14:46] <pfct> AMDMutant: I know, but I want to be able to access the music files
[14:46] <AMDMutant> pfct: to read write it you can use software, i forgot...
[14:47] <mortuis99> !trash
[14:47] <rinsmaster> lot of netsplits these times
[14:47] <mortuis99> ok i know where trash is how do i empty it?
[14:48] <rinsmaster> rightclick, empty trash, or rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/*
[14:48] <onetinsoldier> boss: ok,i see that you told me you were going to send the file, just saw that now. however, please ask first next time. anyway, make a pstebin of it
[14:48] <boss> http://paste.ubuntu.com/93210/
[14:48] <onetinsoldier> pastebin*
[14:48] <onetinsoldier> boss: ok, i'll have a look
[14:48] <boss> here it is
[14:49] <mortuis99> i have tried dozend of time right clicking and the dirs are still in the trash
[14:49] <boss> tnx
[14:49] <onetinsoldier> yep
[14:49] <pfct> cizra: I thought it should be possible when the phone is in Mass Storage mode. When I connect in Phone mode I can sometimes access using Wammu. In Media mode F-Spot Photo Manager finds all the files, but only makes sense of the photos.
[14:49] <scientes> how do i view drv:// locations?
[14:49] <rinsmaster> mortuis99, then those dirs are probably owned by root, try: sudo chown -R yourname ~/.local/share/Trash
[14:49] <Katangawise> lkjlkjl
[14:50] <cizra> pfct: Mass storage, yes. Check dmesg for messages about usb-storage and sdb or something when you plug it in.
[14:50] <lore20> ++
[14:50] <Zmajci> fter upgrading my numpad don't work properly (it moves the arrow instead of typing numbers). reconfigured xorg.conf, it doesn't help. any suggestions?
[14:51] <cizra> Zmajci: Have you tried pressing the Num lock?
[14:51] <cizra> Zmajci: Sorry if it sounds dumb
[14:51] <Zmajci> cizra: lol... unfortunately.. yes.. makes no difference
[14:52] <AMDMutant> pfct: how is it if you use wammu?
[14:53] <mortuis99> rinsmaster one dir was deleted and one is still there
[14:53] <onetinsoldier> boss: ok, i think i might nkow what's wrong. old version of flgrx driver. what's the output of the following command?  dpkg -l '*fglrx*' | awk '/^ii/ {print $2, $3}
[14:53] <rinsmaster> mortuis99, does the dir have a lock on it or so?
[14:54] <AMDMutant> pfct: yes if you want to manually mount it check dmesg
[14:54] <mortuis99> i went to the  dir in the trash and yes there are locks on them
[14:54] <rinsmaster> mortuis99, because with the sudo chown thing you just gave yourself the rights, so now you should be able to remove it
[14:54] <Zmajci> cizra: all other buttons work corretly, only that the numpad is moving the arrow (quite well) instead of typing. with button number 5 you can even select! but I want numbers back!
[14:54] <rinsmaster> mortuis99, then do: sudo chown -R yourname ~/.local/share/Trash
[14:55] <cizra> Zmajci: sorry, I don't know
[14:55] <rinsmaster> Zmajci, isn't that an option in some dialog somewhere, i remember using it once
[14:55] <Tosko> can someone help me with the laptop hard drive Load_Cycle_Count issue?
[14:55] <panfist> from a fresh install of 8.10 x64 I have enabled ATI restricted drivers and installed mplayer. my video playback suffers from screen tearing. i am using an athlon x2 @ 2.4GHz on a 780G motherboard. i think the hardware should be fast enough to playback most video but even standard def gives me screen tearing. what software settings should i be using to get the smoothest playback
[14:56] <AMDMutant> anyone use lam-mpi?
[14:56] <kerstin> Hi there
[14:56] <pfct> AMDMutant: It seems to come up as a SCSI removable disk on sdb
[14:56] <pfct> cisra: It seems to come up as a SCSI removable disk on sdb
[14:57] <AMDMutant> pfct: sdb it is
[14:57] <pfct> AMDMutant: Can I mount this?
[14:57] <mortuis99> rinsmaster i did "chown -R yourname ~/.local/share/Trash" then "sudo rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/*" and it is still there
[14:57] <kerstin> I have a "VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc 215CT [Mach64 CT]" and only 800x600 screen resolution - is the hardware too bad or is there something within ubuntu that I can do to improve it?
[14:57] <Zmajci> rinsmaster, cizra: it seems like a feature, not a bug, that activate itself just after upgrade... just unable to find HOW to swith it off  LOL
[14:58] <piojunbabia> hello?
[14:58] <piojunbabia> i need help?
[14:58] <rinsmaster> Zmajci, yes it is a feature, but I can't find the option either now :P It was once activatable somewhere
[14:58] <piojunbabia> somebody here?
[14:58] <AMDMutant> pfct: try sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb
[14:58] <cizra> rinsmaster: Sounds rather like a bug to me
[14:58] <rinsmaster> piojunbabia, relax dude, help is on the way
[14:58] <ttye0> I'm using Ubuntu Netbook Remix sand I'd like to change my Login Window and if possible I'd like to try turning on Compiz. What package contains the Login Window configuration utility? I don't even know where to start for Compiz because I'm used to having a Special Effects tab on Appearance and it's not there. Suggestions or resources?
[14:58] <AMDMutant> pfct: is there sdb1 or something
[14:59] <piojunbabia> can you help me rinsmaster?

[15:01] <piojunbabia> bazhang, why?
[15:01] <bazhang> !virus
[15:01] <viper> vuze lost all its downloading torrents too
[15:02] <Zmajci> rinsmaster, cizra: how to reset completely GNOME preference to default? maybe deleting the configuration file (which one?) or with a configuration tool?
[15:02] <piojunbabia> !virus
[15:02] <piojunbabia> ?
[15:02] <bazhang> http://librenix.com/?inode=21 piojunbabia
[15:02] <piojunbabia> thanks for the link
[15:02] <kerstin> Hey guys - any tipps for a mach64 ati card in ubuntu 8.10?
[15:03] <pfct> AMDMutant: Nothing, the command just drops me back to the prompt
[15:04] <piojunbabia> now how to install adobe flash in linux?
[15:04] <SlimeyPete> !flash
[15:05] <SlimeyPete> though I think firefox can just do it automatically these days
[15:05] <AMDMutant> pfct: really? try mount sdb then
[15:05] <piojunbabia> i have a very old versio of ubuntu is that procedure ok - the link you gave?
[15:05] <onetinsoldier> Zmajci: you might try deleteing all the .gnome stuff in your /home/user directory. but if other settings have been chasnged elsewhere, such as soem settings somehwere in  /etc/  then i don't know
[15:05] <piojunbabia> i also have older version of firefox
[15:06] <Pici> piojunbabia: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[15:06] <SlimeyPete> piojunbabia: what version of ubuntu?
[15:06] <AMDMutant> pfct: no info about sdb...
[15:06] <leon> sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:06] <piojunbabia> something called "breezy *"
[15:06]  * grobda24 says Happy New Ubuntu Year.
[15:06] <leon> piojunbabia, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:07] <Pici> piojunbabia: That has not been supported for quite some time.  You will not be able to install software with apt.
[15:07] <piojunbabia> what does that mean?
[15:07] <piojunbabia> i am not familiar with linux commands
[15:07] <Pici> !breezy
[15:07] <kerstin> oh right, happy new year too you guys too ;)
[15:07] <pfct> AMDMutant: sudo mount sdb returns no entry in etc/fstab or etc/mtab and sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt returns special device sdb1 does not exist
[15:07] <grobda24> I can see the files in a root owned directory ... how can I hide everything ?
[15:07] <SlimeyPete> piojunbabia: just type it into a terminal
[15:07] <Pici> SlimeyPete: It won't work.
[15:07] <Zmajci> onetinsoldier: thanks. I already reconfigured xorg.conf to default (even screen on vesa)... so I hope it must be gnome.. wish me luck.. thanks folk
[15:07] <piojunbabia> ok thanks
[15:07] <Pici> piojunbabia: It won't work.
[15:07] <SlimeyPete> Pici: Oh. Is Breezy too old?
[15:07] <onetinsoldier> Zmajci: for example...  cd ~/ && rm -rfv .compiz .gconf* .gnome* .gstream* .gvfs .nautilus
[15:07] <xun> Hi guys, quick question. if I create a symbolic link using "mount --bind", will it still be there after I reboot?
[15:07] <Pici> piojunbabia: Your version of Ubuntu is too old.
[15:08] <onetinsoldier> Zmajci: ok, good luck!
[15:08] <Pici> SlimeyPete: EOL April 2007.
[15:08] <SlimeyPete> Pici: you really need to get hold of a newer version of Ubuntu.
[15:08] <Pici> SlimeyPete: Not me ;)
[15:08] <SlimeyPete> erm
[15:08] <earthian2> Hello again.. I am using Ubuntu netbook remix that is Hardy in heart. And i have this message in my syslog: http://pastebin.com/d4fe39a7
[15:08] <SlimeyPete> sorry, mis-tab
[15:08] <AMDMutant> pfct: sudo mount /dev/sdb /mnt ?
[15:08] <SlimeyPete> piojunbabia: you really need to get hold of a newer version of Ubuntu.
[15:08] <SlimeyPete> it will be difficult to install a recent version of Flash on Breezy
[15:08] <rinsmaster> Zmajci, or install a gnome config manager app thing, it's a bit like the windows registry, you can change allot of stuff
[15:08] <gizmo> who know the define of pulpie?
[15:09] <AMDMutant> pfct: probably you can't
[15:09] <grobda24> Don't think I phrased that very well ... I can see the files in a root owned directory as a non root user ... how can I hide everything in that directory from non root users ??
[15:09] <Pici> gizmo: Not a topic this channel is for, Try ##linguistics .
[15:09] <AMDMutant> pfct: how if you use wammu?
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian, ubuntu based remix's are like   mint..  not supported here
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> !mint
[15:09] <piojunbabia>  sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:10] <rinsmaster> lolz
[15:10] <piojunbabia> i found that as an error message
[15:10] <rinsmaster> open up synaptic package manager under the system menu
[15:10] <rinsmaster> and search for flashplugin
[15:10] <rinsmaster> @piojunbabia
[15:10] <leon> piojunbabia,  you shuold upgrade your os version
[15:10] <xun> hello, if I create a symbolic link using "mount --bind", will it still be there after I reboot?
[15:10] <Pici> gizmo: chmod -R o-r /that/path   That will remove read privleges to Other users.
[15:10] <AMDMutant> pfct: xgnokii, gmobilemedia
[15:10] <piojunbabia> ca i upgrade my ubuntu online?
[15:11] <leon> yes
[15:11] <piojunbabia> can*
[15:11] <nibbler_> xun: mount does not make symbolic links, ln does
[15:11] <Pici> piojunbabia: Not that version.
[15:11] <Pici> piojunbabia: It is too old by many versions.
[15:11] <piojunbabia> is there any other way?
[15:11] <Pici> piojunbabia: You can download a new CD from http://www.ubuntu.com/download or request a CD from shipit.
[15:11] <xun> nibbler_ , i thought you could link an empty folder to another one with "mount --bind" no?
[15:11] <Pici> !shipit > piojunbabia
[15:11] <earthian> Jack_Sparrow, afaik i downloaded that from canonical.com website... which is ermm.. like ubuntu kubuntu edubuntu xubuntu and ubuntu remix.. like one family, isnt it?
[15:11] <xun> I'm using it to manage some ftp access
[15:12] <nibbler_> xun: tis works, but thats mounting, not symbolic-linking. there are many ways to achive one goal
[15:12] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian, to a degree.. yes.. but many are not
[15:12] <piojunbabia> thank you ubottu
[15:12] <nibbler_> xun: mount -obind and ln -s are two of them
[15:12] <earthian> :/
[15:12] <piojunbabia> they will send me a cd for free?
[15:12] <Pici> piojunbabia: Yes.
[15:12] <nibbler_> xun: but while the link would be preserved, mounts are only done according to /etc/fstab after each reboot
[15:13] <xun> nibller_, i see. what method would you recommend using then(so that it won't disappear after reboot)
[15:13] <piojunbabia> How long will it take? I am from the Philippines....
[15:13] <onetinsoldier> grobda24: i 'think'  chmod 0600 ...might be what you're looking for
[15:13] <nibbler_> xun: use ln -s to make symbolic links, those dont disapper, but their handling depends on ftp deamon, so check if it wirks
[15:13] <nibbler_> works
[15:13] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian, ONce others take ubuntu and add things and change repos and mostly dependencies...  it can get ugly to repair
[15:14] <piojunbabia> How long will it take? I am from the Philippines....
[15:14] <earthian> but thats a kernel related question
[15:14] <Pici> piojunbabia: I don't know
[15:14] <piojunbabia> ok
[15:14] <xun> niibler_,ya, that's the thing, i think i checked last night and it didn't work, that's why i used "mount --bind", but i'll try again
[15:14] <Pici> onetinsoldier: That may interrupt other owner related permissions. chmod g-r is a safer way to go.
[15:14] <piojunbabia> i will ask for a cd from that site thank you...
[15:14] <grobda24> onetinsoldier, ok, thanks
[15:14] <onetinsoldier> grobda24: either 0600 or 0700
[15:14] <nibbler_> xun: there might be an option "follow symlinks" or the like in your ftpd
[15:15] <xun> nibbler_, how do I add mount option (such as --bind) for a folder in fstab. I only know how to mount drives
[15:15] <Pici> grobda24: That may interrupt other owner related permissions. chmod g-r is a safer way to go.
[15:15] <nibbler_> xun: umm, no idea, option tab need to have bind in it, device is the "sourcefolder" and mountpoint is obv.
[15:15] <onetinsoldier> Pici: grobda24 seemed to want pretty tight permission on it
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian,  I am using Ubuntu netbook remix that is Hardy in heart.. Sounds like something you did not get from canonical
[15:16] <xun> nibbler_, ok. thanks, I'll check out to see if there is such option in my ftpd, i'm using proftpd btw
[15:17] <nibbler_> xun: keep the possible securityrisks in mind when you do that...
[15:17] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian, and that error is not from our kernel, it looks more like you are trying to buyild up your own
[15:17] <earthian> hm
[15:17] <Pici> onetinsoldier: But if a file is chmodded already to 7xx chmoding to 6xx will break the executable bit for owners, and vice versa.  'o-r'  (not g-r, I mistyped) will remove read permissions from everyone else, which is what he wants.
[15:17] <earthian> i downloaded mine from launchpad.com got a link from canonical.com
[15:17] <piojunbabia> so i do not need an anti virus on my ubuntu right?
[15:17] <ardchoille> How do I remove the google search bar from the firefox toolbar?
[15:17] <earthian> used usb stick. everything got installed without problems
[15:17] <earthian> also I am on acer aspire one
[15:17] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian, When are you getting this error, has this system ever run since install etc
[15:18] <earthian> yes
[15:18] <earthian> its running..
[15:18] <Pici> ardchoille: Right click, customize and just drag it off
[15:18] <xun> nibbler_, hmmm...  will there still be a security risk even if I've "denied" all write privilege for the account?
[15:18] <xun> "anonymous" actually
[15:18] <ardchoille> Pici: it doesn't stick that way between firefox launches, the google searchbar returns on its own
[15:18] <earthian> everything seems ok with the system. it happens only once each start at around 500 seconds after start as provided in there pastebin
[15:18] <AMDMutant> you cant access dir if it isn't +x
[15:18] <wobbiebobbie> I install a antivirus because I switch between windows and linux
[15:19] <Pici> ardchoille: Hrm. Thats a bug then.
[15:19] <onetinsoldier> Pici: perhaps, but this is what grobda24 asked for  --->  how can I hide everything in that directory from non root users ??
[15:19] <nibbler_> xun: only if users could create their own symlinks, maybe even lokal users, and access them via ftp with root privilegs then maybe....
[15:19] <ardchoille> Pici: ah, I thought so
[15:19] <onetinsoldier> Pici: ok, anyway, i think what he might want is 0700
[15:20] <xun> nibbler_, then I'm fine I think. this is just for "anonymous" account. there is no other privileges than "read". thanks for the heads up though
[15:20] <onetinsoldier> Pici: which is rwx for root only
[15:20] <mohbana_> how do i switch to su in ubuntu?  not sudo <command>
[15:21] <onetinsoldier> grobda24: i think your going to want 0700...  chmod 0700 <dir> ...that owuld be read, write, and execute for owner only. is that what you want?
[15:21] <kerstin> Hey its me again
[15:21] <olegb> mohbana_: sudo su
