[12:27] <sheldon> hello all, i need problem with my sound, i dont have any sound :)
[12:27] <DGM> Bauldrick: i was actually interrested in it myself and i'm surprised theres not some kind of shurtcut. Maybe there is but i couldnt find it
[12:27] <sheldon> 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) HD Audio Controller
[12:27] <j2daosh> there is no INSTALL and the readme only refers to where to get more info on other products and info on where to find libvent if needed
[12:27] <sheldon> i didnt see my sound card in preference
[12:28] <Oer> hussain, better ask in #debian
[12:29] <DGM> Bauldrick: you could take out the harddrive and hook it up somewhere else. Or if you've installed SSH on it you could access the config files remotely and do it that way
[12:29] <Muelli> j2daosh: *which* package? Where did you get the sources from? And there are most likely instructions as to how to build in the  package

[12:33] <Wingless> I have Ubuntu set up to open a new terminal whenever I hit the Windows key on my keyboard.  It's nice to be able to open a terminal and tell Linux to just start the program I want, but it seems that I can't do anything with that particular terminal until I'm done with the program I've opened -- which means that if I want to run multiple programs, I wind up with multiple terminals running in the background.  There must be a better w

[12:34] <DGM> Bauldrick: if its nvidia you can enable twinview in xorg.conf.. but it should be explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174
[12:34] <Muelli> Wingless: program &
[12:34] <Muelli> Wingless: notice the "&" at the end.
[12:34] <Wingless> Muelli: What is that?
[12:34] <Muelli> Wingless: but you might be more lucky with pressing Alt+F2 anyway.
[12:34] <Rewt`> runs it in background
[12:34] <Muelli> Wingless: Bash's Job control. It starts a job in the background.

[12:36] <Wingless> I like Alt+F2.  I just tried entering f-spot & into the terminal, but it still starts up the program with the terminal running in the background, like as a window
[12:36] <Wingless> I'll take a look
[12:36] <abhijit> anyone success to play 0ad on lucid 64 bit?
[12:37] <Bauldrick> DGM: Does someone have to be 'logged in' in order to be able to ssh into it? I'm getting connection refused from it - it's obviously sat in login screen
[12:37] <DGM> Bauldrick: no if there is an ssh server running on it you should be able to get in by default
[12:37] <DGM> Bauldrick: you could try installing it blind on the laptop
[12:38] <Bauldrick> I know its on there (ssh) - I've used it to remotely shutdown when shes on it late at night :)
[12:38] <DGM> hmm
[12:39] <DGM> well it only has to be on. you dont realy have to be logged in
[12:39] <TraumaPony> Does apt-get start installing after the first package has downloaded, or does it wait for all of them to download?
[12:39] <DGM> TraumaPony: it waits for all of 'm
[12:39] <cage_raphel> abhijit: did u try http://www.linuxidx.com/linux.php?q=This+Lucid+Lynx+Post-Install+Guide+Is+Simply+Awesome!?
[12:39] <Wingless> Muelli: is the & trick unique to Ubuntu, or does that work as long as I'm using bash?
[12:39] <TraumaPony> Any reason in particular for that?
[12:39] <j2daosh> Bauldrick: port scan to see if its listening
[12:40] <DGM> Bauldrick: it might be that root is disabled so you will need to log in with a normal user and then use sudo
[12:41] <j2daosh> DGM, he is getting connection refused, not unable to login
[12:41] <DGM> j2daosh: oh ye :) he said he used it before though. Maybe the wrong ip?
[12:41] <abhijit> cage_raphel, i am able to install 0ad but it hangs after first window. it demand for some lib after which it tell me that it wll create bug for another softwraes. so i want anyone who successfully run 0ad on lucid.
[12:41] <HuntBurton> heya, ive a question about an usb wlan stick. I read in  the wiki that the Msi rt300ex is supported, but ive a newer version. its called rt310ex. and now i dont know if its working with the driver for the rt300ex. how can i find out what chipset is used in my wlan stick?
[12:42] <j2daosh> either that or the ssh server isn't running
[12:42] <j2daosh> possibly hibernation mode without a WOL?
[12:42] <DGM> possible. Then just try rebooting the laptop
[12:42] <cage_raphel> abhijit:  could u pls get us the excat error message when u run 0ad?
[12:43] <abhijit> cage_raphel, no. because right now its not installed. :)
[12:43] <cage_raphel> abhijit: ok .. lets try installing it again .. coz it does work for me :)
[12:43] <cage_raphel> abhijit:  sudo apt-get update
[12:43] <abhijit> cage_raphel, can you tell me the exact steps you followed to install and run 0ad ? i am using lucid 64 bit
[12:43] <cage_raphel> abhijit: sudo apt-get install 0ad
[12:43] <Bauldrick> hmm, I think wrong IP, although it doesn't seem to be showing when rebooted - I know it's on DHCP
[12:43] <abhijit> cage_raphel, ohh I see
[12:44] <DGM> Bauldrick: there are tools for scanning ports on ip ranges. You could use that if you cant figure out the ip
[12:44] <cage_raphel> abhijit: :)
[12:44] <Bauldrick> using angry ipscanner
[12:45] <j2daosh> Bauldrick: nmap
[12:45] <cage_raphel> abhijit:  you can find the step by step process listed under http://gamblis.com/2010/07/25/how-to-install-0-a-d-age-of-empire-clone-in-ubuntu-lucid-lynx/
[12:45] <abhijit> cage_raphel, could not find packag 0ad
[12:45] <Bauldrick> I don't think wifi is turning on unless loggen in?
[12:45] <cage_raphel> abhijit:  correct .. you need to download the package first .. pls download the package from the link  i just provided
[12:46] <abhijit> cage_raphel, ohhh ok .
[12:46] <abhijit> brb in 2 sec
[12:46] <DGM> you dont need to log from irc for that :P
[12:46] <DGM> os'es nowadays are multiprocess xD
[12:46] <phasip> Okay, I have figured why it won't boot, it's when I add "auto wlan0" and "iface wlan0 inet dhcp" to /etc/network/interfaces ... how can i make ubuntu start my wireless automatically?
[12:46] <j2daosh> Bauldrick: that i can relate too. i can't get a wifi connection without the network manager running which I can't get running unless im logged in. (I'm sure there is a way, i just haven't bothered looking)
[12:47] <DGM> hmm i dont have that problem. Everything i know i need to access remotely i take off dhcp though :P

[12:49] <TraumaPony> I have a VirtualBox question reguarding Ubuntu.
[12:49] <abhijit> cage_raphel, come in pm
[12:49] <TraumaPony> I'm dualbooting windows 7 and ubuntu on two seperate HDDs. I'm trying to get vbox to run my Linux install via a raw partition. I created a disk image using "vboxmanage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename C:\users\TraumaPony\.VirtualBox\HardDisks\LinuxDrive.vmdk -rawdisk \\.\PhysicalDrive2 -partitions 1,5", and when I attach that to a VM, nothing happens. Did I miss a step?
[12:49] <radi> good god
[12:50] <radi> community war rubish
[12:50] <TraumaPony> GRUB is installed on my windows drive
[12:50] <ikonia> TraumaPony: I don't thing vbox supports partitions as a disk
[12:50] <TraumaPony> It does
[12:50] <ikonia> TraumaPony: not the free version (again not %100 certain )
[12:50] <ilon> how do i downgrade a package in ubuntu?
[12:50] <TraumaPony> The docs say it does
[12:51] <Bauldrick> from the login screen, what brings up cmd line so I could login 'blindly'?
[12:51] <DGM> kvm does
[12:51] <ikonia> TraumaPony: are the docs referencing the free version
[12:51] <TraumaPony> The docs that come with the free version
[12:51] <ikonia> DGM: yeah, I use kvm with raw partitions, no issue
[12:51] <radi> DGM: basically, theme controls that colour, correct ? because when i change theme it changes too
[12:51] <ikonia> TraumaPony: I'd be surprised if it does reference the free version, but no experience personally
[12:51] <TraumaPony> ilon: sudo apt-get install, I believe
[12:51] <ikonia> radi: stop
[12:52] <TraumaPony> oh
[12:52] <TraumaPony> I thought you said download :P
[12:52] <DGM> radi: i just gave you an explanation for gnome. I didnt notice it was another window manager :) but it might be similar yes
[12:52] <ikonia> DGM: we do not support mint, please stop
[12:52] <radi> yes, it is exactly what you said :)
[12:52] <DGM> ikonia: not even allowed to help somebody? hmk..
[12:52] <ikonia> DGM: not with mint, no
[12:53] <DGM> specific reason?
[12:53] <radi> if i make a screenshot now, you wont say i use mint
[12:53] <j2daosh> Bauldrick: alt+f2
[12:53] <Oer> DGM mint has itś own problems we don know
[12:53] <radi> and thats not a mint related question anyway
[12:53] <skumara> from terminal how do i see what are the HDD mounted in my laptop?
[12:53] <ikonia> DGM: because this channel is ubuntu only support, mint has it's own support resources,
[12:53] <ikonia> skumara: just "mount"

[12:54] <zouriteman> i want to set my monitor on the vga port as my main monitor
[12:54] <Bauldrick> j2daosh: and from there is it just a case of typing Bauldrick <ENTER> passwd <ENTER> ?
[12:54] <zouriteman> how i can do that ?
[12:54] <toman> http://vimeo.com/13938812 <-- any crits and comments are welcome! Right now i'm uploading the first animation tests!
[12:54] <DGM> Bauldrick: yes
[12:54] <toman> ops ..
[12:54] <toman> that was not for this channel
[12:54] <toman> sry
[12:54] <DGM> Bauldrick: woops no.. use ctrl + alt + f2.. then log in
[12:54] <ikonia> toman: easy mistake to make
[12:54] <DGM> or f1
[12:54] <toman> ikonia, :D
[12:55] <j2daosh> Bauldrick: to login to a console, yes
[12:56] <cao_> ???
[12:56] <BlueEagle> zouriteman: By "main monitor" do you mean the one where the icons and graphical login is shown or do you want the boot text (or splash) shown there?
[12:56] <kuttan_>
[12:57] <Bauldrick> yeah, logged in , got addres , ssh'd in - now to alter the file for monitor

[12:59] <Diverdude> Is it possible to run amiga 500 games from abandonia.com on ubuntu ?
[12:59] <furythor> What driver I should use for Geforce 470 in Ubuntu 10.04 ?
[12:59] <ikonia> Diverdude: if you have an emmulator
[13:00] <Diverdude> ikonia, is there such an emulator for ubuntu?
[13:00] <ikonia> Diverdude: have a look in the repos, do a search for amiga
[13:00] <DGM> furythor: in gnome go into system -> administration -> hardware. It should show the official nvidia drivers available for install
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> The amiga emulator for linux is called 'uae' it works very well :) You do need amiga roms however
[13:01] <Diverdude> ikonia, yeah i only found this UAE...but it seems to be really hard to make work
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  i dident find it hard at all.
[13:01] <furythor> DGM: Yeah there is, however those are 195, and I am wondering that would newer like 256.35 or 256.44 be better
[13:02] <Diverdude> Dr_Willis, really? Did you make it work=?
[13:02] <Oer> Diverdude https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EUAEAmigaEmulator ?
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  you need to find some amiga 'bios/rom' images from somewhere.  Ive been using UAE for years
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  i still have several real amigas
[13:02] <abhijit> Dr_Willis, what is UAE?
[13:02] <miha> does ubuntu / linux kernel *ever* fix the bugs? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/575492  seems to be around for a while
[13:03] <DGM> furythor: just grab them from the nvidia website then i guess. But they'd be unsupported
[13:03] <Diverdude> Dr_Willis, where can i find these images, and what is it?
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> abhijit:  e-uae - The Egalitarian Ubiquitous Amiga Emulator
[13:03] <TraumaPony> If I have grub installed on my main hdd which boots windows on that drive and linux on a secondary drive, can I additionally install grub to the secondary drive which just boots linux?
[13:03] <abhijit> Dr_Willis, ohhh ok ok
[13:03] <Bauldrick> I have an Intel video card in this netbook I believe - how do I go about changing the monitor (which file?) theres no xorg.conf
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  They are not legazlly free... they are the kickstart/rom/bios images needed for the emulator to work. Then you need the actuial games/os disks images.
[13:03] <miha> TraumaPony you can .. you can link as many grubs as you want as chain loader :)
[13:04] <furythor> DGM: problem is that I don't know if something should be done otherwise because I get bad install results for me, so I think that I will stick with 195 for now, unless someone can give precise advice
[13:04] <TraumaPony> miha: Is it possible after both OS's are already installed?
[13:05] <Anton2> i have fresh ubuntu 10.04 installation. It's connected through ethernet cable to wifi router(D-Link DIR615). There's another computer(winth Win7 onboard) which is connected to that wifi router through wifi. Win7 computer has access to the internet and shares it.

[13:05] <dockimble> how do i change this
[13:05]  * DGM curses his name mixups
[13:06] <Anton2> when i do "route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS> eth0" (<IP_ADDRESS> - Win7 computer)
[13:06] <Anton2> i get internet acces, but not at once
[13:06] <ilon> after upgrading to ubuntu 10.04 (from 9.10) cryptsetup got upgraded to 1.1.0, and isnt able to mount my partitions anymore, how could i downgrade cryptsetup to the previous version?
[13:06] <Diverdude> Dr_Willis, does this game exist in DOS version?
[13:06] <Anton2> i mean, for a while, it's not working
[13:06] <DGM> Anton2: not at once? Connecting is slow?
[13:07] <Anton2> DGM: no access at all, but after 5-10 minutes i get it
[13:07] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  err.. yes.. and a C64 version i recall
[13:07] <Anton2> in that time i didn't change any properties, just was searching for reason
[13:07] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  and they did a remake of it a few years back.
[13:07] <DGM> Anton2: sounds similar to what i have on my server. Connecting to the bridged network takes like 2 minutes and after that its fine. If i remove the bridge its fast again. I cant figure out why it is
[13:08] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  of the old versions.. the amiga version was the best. :)  best gfx and music
[13:08] <Diverdude> Dr_Willis, ahh yes ok now i know what you mean...the problem is that the content of the games actually differ quite a lot
[13:08] <Anton2> and i found out that "ping <IP_ADDRESS>" isn't working, but "ping <IP_ADDRESS> -I eth0" works
[13:08] <Kruptein> hey why is the 'side-by-side' install option gone?
[13:08] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  for dos/amiga/c64 the game was vbasuicaly the same.
[13:08] <Diverdude> Dr_Willis, e.g. they this pirate gold once which actually turned out to be quite boring
[13:08] <Anton2> i have only 2 interfaces, eth0 and lo
[13:09] <Anton2> so, ping <IP_ADDRESS> goes to loopback? or what?
[13:09] <dockimble> anyone?
[13:09] <dockimble> how does one change a mountpoint to writeable
[13:09] <DGM> <IP_ADDRESS>? thats a weird ip. You might want to use the default reserved ip ranges
[13:09] <Kruptein> I get only the option to use the entire disk or to specify manually...
[13:09] <DGM> 192.168.x.x 10.x.x.x etc.
[13:10] <Anton2> DGM: <IP_ADDRESS> is just test IP for internet access
[13:10] <Anton2> it's google dns
[13:10] <lovish> hi more
[13:10] <pankajm_> hi lovish
[13:10] <DGM> Anton2: oh i didn't know that hehe
[13:10] <Anton2> DGM: and i tried to wait like 10 minutes. If i don't do anything it won't start working
[13:11] <pankajm_> welcome to Ubuntu channel
[13:11] <Anton2> only when i'm trying to investigate and perform some stuff
[13:11] <Kruptein> nobody knows where the 'side by side' install option is?
[13:11] <DGM> what if you traceroute it?
[13:11] <Ashev1591> Hi all
[13:11] <Anton2> but i didn't get what exactly causes it to start working
[13:11] <pankajm_> u will find plenty of people to help u here
[13:11] <DGM> Kruptein: its in there near the bottom.. look better :)
[13:11] <DGM> Kruptein: use largest free space
[13:12] <DGM> Kruptein: ofcourse you would have to resize your partitions beforehand to make the space
[13:12] <Kruptein> DGM:  I have only 2 options:  entire disk  or manually select partitions
[13:12] <Anton2> DGM: i tried to perform tracerout in "network tools" app, it doesn't show anything at all
[13:12] <Kruptein> but previous there also was 'side by side'
[13:12] <pankajm_> lovish: please ask any questions that you may have
[13:12] <DGM> Kruptein: is your other OS windows?
[13:12] <Kruptein> yes
[13:12] <Kruptein> new laptop with fresh windows install
[13:13] <lovish> thanks more but you will have to wait for my queries
[13:13] <DGM> you can resize one of the windows partitions under administrator tools. After that go back into the setup and it will give you the option to use that free'd space to auto create partitions. Thats the easiest way for non-manual
[13:13] <Kruptein> DGM Okay I will try that first thanks
[13:13] <Anton2> main evidence i think is that "ping <IP_ADDRESS>" doesn't work and "ping <IP_ADDRESS> -I eth0" works, what can cause such an behavior?

[13:17] <Dr_Willis> dockimble:  you deleted 'somthing' ? as in  'a file from teh flash drive' ?
[13:17] <dockimble> as in a file, yes
[13:18] <dockimble> when i attempt to write to the device it gives me a read only file system error
[13:18] <DGM> ilon: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/cryptsetup
[13:18] <dockimble> how might i open it via nautlius as root?
[13:18] <abhijit> does ubuntu automatically removes .deb of third party softwares after installation of that software? e.g. i now installing game from getdeb. so will it keep forever in archives?
[13:19] <Kruptein> DGM where can I find those administrator tools?
[13:19] <Dr_Willis> dockimble:  use the command line..  , actually if the user was able to access it then it became 'read only' its possible a filesystem error or disk error was detected.
[13:19] <Dr_Willis> abhijit:  the cache gets cleaned out after some time.
[13:19] <abhijit> Dr_Willis, uhhh :( sad.
[13:20] <Davenous8> How can u get a file to open on ubuntu the errer says executabe or does not have permission and im new to the OS
[13:20] <dockimble> gparted shows the mp3 player as unallocated, is it a good idea to format it?
[13:20] <DGM> Kruptein: rightclick the start menu, properties. You should be able to show administator tools in the start menu there somewhere. From there its computer management
[13:20] <abhijit> Davenous8, what is the file extension?
[13:20] <Dr_Willis> abhijit:  uhhh.. why..   you want to keep 20+gb of stuff  you may never need? :)
[13:20] <abhijit> Dr_Willis, :)
[13:20] <Davenous8> what u mean file extention
[13:21] <Davenous8> x-nautilus-desktop:///WD%20Unlocker.volume
[13:21] <abhijit> Davenous8, e.gh. in this example mydoc.txt the "txt' is extenion
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> dockimble:  is there any data you want to keep  thats on the thing?
[13:21] <dockimble> don't really carer
[13:21] <dockimble> care
[13:22] <DGM> it might become unreadable by the mp3 player itself if you do that thoguh
[13:22] <DGM> some brands have modified paritions for no reason
[13:22] <Kruptein> DGM Okay found it thanks
[13:22] <DGM> np
[13:23] <gizero> If I have two EditView components in an activity, how to I decide which of the two gets initial focus? Preferably in XML.
[13:23] <gizero> The closest I've found is focusableInTouchMode, but that isn't quite right
[13:23] <Davenous8> properties does not come up when i right click on it
[13:24] <abhijit> Davenous8, whats the thing you actually want to do?
[13:25] <Davenous8> I got a portabel hard drive i i set it on on the windows vista side of my comp im on the ubuntu side and i cant get it to open to put the password in . ubuntu wont let me open the file i guess its blocking it
[13:27] <DGM> Davenous8: its possible you need to properly take out the drive on vista. Theres a bit somewhere in the ntfs partion that says it needs to be checked. If its set, linux refuses to mount it. Atleast thats how it used to be 2 years ago. Forgive me if thats been fixed by now

[13:27] <Davenous8> its ok ill try that im new to the OS and trying to figure it out
[13:27] <DGM> linux should ignore ntfs access settings
[13:27] <seven> op se ki
[13:28] <Davenous8> sorry
[13:29] <Davenous8> does wine run allmost all window based programs?
[13:30] <DGM> Davenous8: it runs a lot but by far not all. You can test the programs yourself or you can check the wine website. It has a huge list of programs and it says how well they work (or not work)
[13:30] <TraumaPony> If I have grub installed on my main hdd which boots windows on that drive and linux on a secondary drive, how can I additionally install grub to the secondary drive which just boots linux? I'm trying to get virtualbox to boot the linux partition.
[13:31] <Davenous8> any good books or programs that i can get for this OS. i find it smother but confusing
[13:31] <DGM> TraumaPony: i think you'll have to install linux from virtualbox instead. Then it should be the only available drive to it and it will put it there anyway
[13:31] <abhijit>  !manual | Davenous8
[13:32] <TraumaPony> DGM: I still want to be able to boot into it
[13:32] <abhijit> Davenous8, also ubuntu pocket guide, tldp.org, and linux.com and the main one  - google!!!!  :)
[13:33] <DGM> i dont know if its a good idea like that considering drivers and settings etc. But in that case you could instal llike normal with grub on the first harddrive. Then inside virtual box "restore" grub on its own harddrive. But again i think it might cause issues
[13:33] <Davenous8> ya google didnt help with this 1 first time it failed me lol but thank you
[13:33] <DGM> there would be some messing around involved to get that to work, considering the boot configs
[13:33] <abhijit> Davenous8, if you are interested learning something about ubuntu then there are user days and developer days in which you can learn a lot. you can check theme here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDays
[13:33] <DGM> you'd be better off going into the bios boot menu if you want to boot from the other drive
[13:34] <sacarlson> TraumaPony: if you already have windows installed as long as you have a free patition to use on you system you can dual boot Ubuntu.  you can also run windows inside of ubuntu in vertualbox
[13:34] <Davenous8> thank you and i plan on learnign it i want to enroll in a school for IT and its a interesting operater program
[13:35] <DGM> sacarlson: he wants both to be the same. He wants it on a second harddrive and be able to boot normally into it but also from virtualbox inside windows
[13:35] <TraumaPony> What DGM sid
[13:35] <TraumaPony> said
[13:35] <gamerx> hey guys
[13:35] <andyn> would chainloading another grub installation be possible?
[13:35] <Davenous8> vertualbox where do u download that from
[13:35] <DGM> its possible.. perhaps the easiest way is to use grub for your main boot menu with windows and ubuntu. and then use lilo for virtualbox
[13:35] <TraumaPony> virtualbox.org
[13:36] <DGM> but again.. thats realllly a messy sollution.. :P
[13:36] <abhijit> Davenous8, just for you info - there are some good websites for linux including ubuntu forums then ubuntumanual.org and some more.
[13:36] <TraumaPony> DGM: Even though ubuntu is already booting from grub?
[13:36] <sacarlson> TraumaPony: DGM: well another disk is the same as having an available partition so can do.  the install of ubuntu detects the windows and asks if you want to dual boot
[13:36] <abhijit> !virtualbox | Davenous8
[13:36] <siddhion> how do you move a directory with files and sub directories in it to another directory using terminal?
[13:36] <TraumaPony> Yeah, sacarlson, I already have both ubuntu and windows installed
[13:36] <DGM> sacarlson: yes but virtualbox cant see that partition ;)
[13:36] <Davenous8> thank you
[13:36] <gamerx> whats the general irc channel?
[13:37] <DGM> sacarlson: so inside virtualbox he doesnt have a bootloader
[13:37] <gamerx> eg: not support
[13:37] <abhijit> !freenode | gamerx
[13:37] <TraumaPony> Exactly
[13:37] <Milp_main> im trying to transfer a complete linux installation from the root directory via ftp to another machine, however lftp always says ".rnd not connected" while trying to transfer that file. Is there anything special about that file?
[13:37] <DGM> which is why i suggest lilo for that so the configs dont conflict with eachother
[13:37] <abhijit> gamerx, #off-topic
[13:37] <DGM> grub for the "real" pc with ubuntu and windows.. and then lilo for inside virtualbox
[13:37] <gamerx> thanks abhijit
[13:37] <abhijit> !ot > gamerx
[13:37] <TraumaPony> How would one instal lilo now?
[13:37] <DGM> its just a package like any other
[13:38] <DGM> i'm sure you can find plenty of info on lilo on google :)
[13:38] <sacarlson> TraumaPony: DGM so you want to virtuabox to autostart in windows or ubuntu.  is that what you want?
[13:38] <Davenous8> When you partition your system do you useally lose drivers i lost most of mine and had to track each 1 down
[13:38] <slow-motion> hi
[13:38] <siddhion> how do you move a directory with files and sub directories in it to another directory using terminal? i tried using mv but it doesnt work. it says "mv: cannot move `jquery-vids/' to `jquery/jquery-vids': Directory not empty"
[13:38] <TraumaPony> I'd have to do it from the real boot, correct?
[13:38] <TraumaPony> no sacarlson
[13:38] <TraumaPony> I have windows + grub on my primary harddrive
[13:38] <TraumaPony> Ubuntu on my secondary
[13:38] <DGM> sacarlson: lol no. He has 2 partitions. One with windows, and one with ubuntu. With a bootmenu. But he also wants to be able to go into that same linux install from within windows.
[13:38] <DGM> with virtualbox
[13:39] <Kruptein> DGM  I made the windows partitions smaller and rebooted into the ubuntu live cd, now the empty space is declared as "not usable",  Should I format it first?
[13:39] <siddhion> any ideas?
[13:39] <thorns> Question: Can you log in into a shared X session using FreeNX? Like when using Vino server on Gnome, or does each login start a separate session?
[13:39] <TraumaPony> Interestingly, there is heaps of documentation for doing it the other way around
[13:39] <DGM> Kruptein: is it too small maybe? whats the size of the free space. And by free space i mean unpartitioned. Not a new paritition created inside windows mind
[13:39] <abhijit> !freenx | thorns may this have some info?
[13:39] <siddhion> i know some one here must know how to do this
[13:40] <sacarlson> TraumaPony: DGM oh that would be cool but I think the file structure of virtualbox is different but maybe you could or at least convert what was there into it.
[13:40] <TraumaPony> wat
[13:40] <TraumaPony> No
[13:40] <Kruptein> no I have 93GB of free space and an other 39GB of free space,  can I make them together?  and how can I make ubuntu use them?
[13:40] <TraumaPony> I'm not creating a virtual machine
[13:40] <guntbert> siddhion: mv source destination
[13:40] <TraumaPony> I'm using the actual disk
[13:40] <Kruptein> *DGM
[13:40] <abhijit> siddhion, tried sudo mv?
[13:40] <DGM> Kruptein: but is that space partitioned or not?
[13:40] <Kruptein> DGM unpartitioned
[13:40] <siddhion> yes i tried sudo mv
[13:41] <DGM> Kruptein: then it should be able to use it just fine. If you want to use them togetter you will have to do it manually though. I'd use the 39gb for / and the 93 gb for /home/
[13:41] <DGM> just dont forget to put a swap somewhere
[13:41] <Kruptein> hm okay I will do my best :s
[13:41] <siddhion> abhijit, guntbert  this is what i did siddhion@siddhion-laptop:~/Desktop$ sudo mv jquery-vids/ jquerymv: cannot move `jquery-vids/' to `jquery/jquery-vids': Directory not empty
[13:42] <Guest90834> Hello ppl , I want to know how do I install mod_rewrite on Ubunut 10.4 ?
[13:42] <Guest90834> Its not present
[13:43] <abhijit> siddhion, cant help.
[13:43] <TraumaPony> DGM: VirtualBox also has an option of embedding a custom MBR in the disk access file. Would that be an alternative solution?
[13:43] <TraumaPony> Or would I still need grub/lilo?
[13:43] <Guest90834> I used "sudo apache2ctl -l" to check
[13:43] <Kruptein> DGM I really don't understand it,  in the "select partitions manually"  the 2 free spaces are displayed as unusable,  how the hell can I say that ubuntu has to use those?
[13:43] <sacarlson> TraumaPony: DGM:  well I think I may be way off but I have done a netboot or pxe_boot with virtualbox that used the partition and files direct from the host that it was runing on.  Am I close?
[13:43] <thorns> abhijit, That still doesn't clearly answer my question. I've been to that page already. What I want to know is clearly, does FreeNX server start a separate X session on each log in or can it log you in to a session that's already running on the server which someone is actually using it locally.
[13:43] <TraumaPony> not really no
[13:43] <DGM> TraumaPony: i think MBR is for dos/windows based stuff.. it wont be able to load the linux kernel
[13:43] <Guest90834> anyone ?
[13:43] <abhijit> thorns, i dunno.
[13:44] <DGM> Kruptein: if they're unusable they are probably partitioned.. i think. You will have to go into the partition tool manually and lay them all out
[13:44] <llutz> thorns: it starts a new session by default
[13:45] <thorns> llutz, but can it log you into a shared local session?
[13:45] <llutz> thorns: idk
[13:45] <TraumaPony> DGM: Should I install lilo from a normal boot into ubuntu, or from a livecd?
[13:45] <Kruptein> DGM is there any partition tool in the basic installation?
[13:45] <DGM> Kruptein: whats the paritions and types it shows here? http://www.serenux.com/~hyrax/snaps/UbuntuJauntyManuallyPartition2.png for you?
[13:46] <Guest90834>  Hello ppl , I want to know how do I install mod_rewrite (apache2) on Ubunut 10.4 ?
[13:46] <Kruptein> I get instead of free space: "onbruikbaar" ~ "unusable"  and nothing as Type
[13:46] <DGM> TraumaPony: Well just install with grub first for your real pc. then try getting lilo to work from virtualbox later. But once again.. i'm only guessing it might work.. it might not. Its a very hacky thing :P
[13:46] <thorns> llutz, I'm looking for a better desktop sharing solution, that's faster than VNC. But VNC is all I've ever tried before. I've read remote X has problems with latency, so NX seemed the best solution out there.
[13:47] <TraumaPony> DGM: apt-get says grub is already installed though
[13:47] <DGM> well yea
[13:47] <DGM> thats ubuntu's default
[13:48] <mozon> bonjour
[13:48] <DGM> mornin
[13:49] <Guest90834>  Hello ppl , I want to know how do I install mod_rewrite (apache2) on Ubunut 10.4 ?
[13:49] <mozon> do you speak french ?
[13:49] <ikonia> !fr
[13:49] <mozon> i install 104 ubuntu
[13:49] <guntbert> !repeat | Guest90834
[13:49] <mozon> 10.4
[13:50] <Guest90834> guntbert, ohk . well thanks !
[13:51] <figure002> Guest90834: type this in terminal: a2enmode rewrite
[13:52] <figure002> Guest90834: typo, i meant: a2enmod rewrite
[13:53] <saby> hello
[13:53] <saby> could anyone tell me wheres the menu.lst located in lucid ?
[13:53] <guntbert> !grub2 | saby
[13:53] <saby> its not in /boot/grub/
[13:54] <guntbert> saby: the layout has changed, read ^^
[13:54] <saby> guntbert, i have grub 1.98 installed
[13:54] <sacarlson> saby: they don't use menu.lst any more if it's useing grub2
[13:54] <guntbert> saby: that *is* grub2 :-)
[13:55] <DGM> its grub.cfg now
[13:55] <Wingless> I want to know if gstreamer is installed.  When I look in Synaptic there are tons of gstreamer *plugins*, but nothing about gstreamer itself.  I must be missing something.  What should I do?
[13:55] <sacarlson> saby: DGM: yes but you don't modify grub.cfg
[13:55] <DGM> but that is an auto generated file from /etc/default/grub and /etc/grub.d so you need to modify those
[13:55] <DGM> sacarlson: i was typing!11one :P
[13:56] <Guest90834> figure002, and how do I check if its there ?
[13:56] <saby> sacarlson, i needed to modify the location of my windows partition
[13:56] <Guest90834> I means its enabled
[13:56] <saby> so changed it in grub.cfg
[13:56] <zcript> hello guys....
[13:56] <figure002> Guest90834: just type the same command again, it will tell you
[13:56] <saby> guntbert, thanx :)
[13:57] <Sweet-P> i have a remote squid proxy that only allows http requests using digest auth, I have an application that can only use http with basic auth.  I need a 'middleman' to provide all of the auth to my upstream proxy.  I've tried to use squid but it only uses basic auth for upstream proxies...any other ideas?
[13:57] <pluguin> 111
[13:57] <figure002> Guest90834: and you might have to restart your Apache server before it's effective
[13:57] <zcript> can any 1 how me how I can enable the home folder on lubuntu
[13:57] <guntbert> saby: and don't forget to run update.grub
[13:57] <Guest90834> ohk . I am doing it . just a min
[13:58] <Guest90834> figure002, it says already enabled
[13:58] <Guest90834> I guess I had used this command before
[13:58] <saby> guntbert, alright :)
[13:58] <Guest90834> figure002, Well thanks a ton :-)
[13:58] <antonio_> hey folks..
[13:58] <figure002> Guest90834: you're welcome
[13:58] <sacarlson> saby: it seems that the grub2 just scans all the partitions for you and you pick the one you want to run.  but you can create a custom one in /etc/grub.d/40_custom
[13:58] <Guest90834> thank you all  . . .
[13:58] <Guest90834> bye
[13:58] <TraumaPony> DGM: Would /boot/grub/grub.cfg be located on my windows drive?
[13:58] <antonio_> Is there a way to automatically "turn down" my volume when I turn off an ubuntu machine?
[13:59] <saby> sacarlson, well it did but it was picking up my backup partition :)
[13:59] <saby> changes it from hd(0,2) to hd(0,3) which was my windows partition
[13:59] <DGM> TraumaPony: its on your linux partition(s)
[13:59] <saby> apt-get update grub
[13:59] <sacarlson> saby: well just don't run that one.  does it pickup the windows partition that you do want to run?
[14:00] <TraumaPony> DGM: So if I removed my linux HDD, windows would be fucked?
[14:00] <saby> sacarlson, not by default
[14:00] <saby> but changed it to the needed one in grub.cfg
[14:00] <Wingless> Does anybody know if Ubuntu comes with gstreamer already installed?  I know I have PLUGINS for gstreamer installed, which suggests that gstreamer ought to be there, but until I see something that tells me it actually is, it's kind of unnerving.
[14:00] <sacarlson> saby: ok then I guess you will need to modify that 40_custom file then
[14:00] <DGM> what exactly do you want to modify saby?
[14:00] <saby> TraumaPony, you will need to update the bootloader
[14:00] <antonio_> on an off topic note...has anyone here been hypnotized?
[14:00] <saby> sacarlson, 40_custom, where is it located ?
[14:01] <DGM> if you run update-grub it should scan for your
[14:01] <DGM> and regenerate the file
[14:01] <TraumaPony> saby: But the bootloader is on my linux partition is it not?
[14:01] <saby> DGM needed to change the windows partition as it wasnt picking the one i needed :)
[14:01] <DGM> it should also detect windows on another drive/partition
[14:01] <saby> TraumaPony, if it is in the mbr then its located in the first sector of the first cylinder of the first hdd
[14:02] <saby> DGM, it was picking only the backup partition which comes by default with the laptop for repairs
[14:02] <TraumaPony> So what wuold happen if I removed the linux drive, and grub could no longer find grub.cfg?
[14:02] <sacarlson> saby: well if you want to try a custom one it won't kill you the file is at /etc/grub.d/40_custom
[14:03] <saby> ok
[14:03] <saby> sacarlson, will it automatically use the custom one or will i need to specify it in grub to use it ?
[14:04] <sacarlson> you will need to look at this it shows you how https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2
[14:05] <saby> ok thanx sacarlson but i think i'll take my risk in just changing the grub.cfg :P
[14:05] <diegus> hello, can a staff help in hidding my ip adress?
[14:05] <sacarlson> saby: after you complete the edit you will need to run sudo update-grub
[14:05] <saby> ok sacarlson :)
[14:06] <sacarlson> saby: if you modify grub.cfg it will just get overwriten
[14:06] <saby> yes sacarlson
[14:06] <saby> well did it, lemme give it a try
[14:07] <MaRk-I> !cloak | diegus
[14:07] <zcript> Hello..... can any1 help me out
[14:09] <zcript> I want to enable the Home Folder on the desktop
[14:09] <zcript> I am using lubuntu..... I tried to run gconf-editor
[14:09] <MaRk-I> zcript: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/show-the-computer-home-network-and-trash-icons-on-your-ubuntu-desktop.html
[14:09] <zcript> but it shows nothing
[14:10] <MaRk-I> zcript: probably better if you ask in #lubuntu
[14:10] <zcript> ok....
[14:11] <zcript> #Lubuntu
[14:16] <cablop> i changed an old board in my linux and now i have crappy sound... but i placed the same sound card on the new board... how can i solve that?
[14:16] <Kruptein> what is wrong with my ubuntu installation?  I only have the second and the fourth option http://www.serenux.com/~hyrax/snaps/UbuntuJauntyManuallyPartition1.png
[14:17] <ikonia> Kruptein: is it a new disk ?
[14:18] <mikebot> Is there a way to add an mp3 to one of the menus in ubuntu netbook remix?
[14:18] <Kruptein> ikonia, well I've bought a new laptop with a fresh windows install
[14:18] <mikebot> Actually, a pls
[14:18] <Kruptein> and I resized partitions like this: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_iyz_eo-7hWU/TF1XzSuUd4I/AAAAAAAAAJI/lAab_ZAw4kA/s800/partitions1.png.jpg
[14:19] <ikonia> Kruptein: ok so if that disk is fully used up, then the option 1 and 3 won't be valid
[14:19] <sacarlson> cablop:  sounds like you already solved your problem you put the old better sound card in.  Now the old card no longer works?
[14:19] <cablop> no no, i changed the board, but the sound card is the same, so i wonder why the sound became crappy
[14:20] <Kruptein> ikonia but look at the second link, I made more then 100gigs of free space :o
[14:20] <ikonia> Kruptein: you've done it using the windows partition tool, so the space is still allocated
[14:20] <cablop> no no, i changed the board, but the sound card is the same, so i wonder why the sound became crappy, sacarlson
[14:20] <Kruptein> ikonia how can I solve my problem then?
[14:21] <sacarlson> cablop:  does the new card have a built in sound card like most due these days?  If so maybe you want to disable that one that may confilct with your old one.
[14:21] <ikonia> Kruptein: use the partition tool within the insaller
[14:21] <ikonia> installer
[14:21] <FabParma> hot to put "CTRL+R" to the context menu. Not in the scripts sub-menu, directly in the system main context to get it on all places quickly
[14:21] <Kruptein> ikonia, yes I did, but the free space is shown as "unusable"
[14:21] <cablop> sacarlson: yes i disabled it
[14:21] <ikonia> Kruptein: because you've made it with the windows partition tool,
[14:22] <sacarlson> cablop:  and your running the same software ubuntu version?
[14:22] <Transmitter> what would most of you pappies use to stream mp3s?
[14:22] <Kruptein> ikonia :s okay now I'm confused the partitioning tool on the ubuntu install disk doesn't work because it's unusable
[14:22] <econdudeawesome> Howdy! Have any of y'all tried SAGE? It's a tarball, but I don't know how to install these
[14:22] <Transmitter> I wanted to use gnump3d to stream mp3s but it isn't in the repos anymore
[14:22] <cablop> sacarlson: yes i do, i just detached the disks and cards and attached again to the replacement board
[14:23] <sacarlson> cablop:  what makes it sound bad like click sounds?
[14:23] <cablop> sacarlson: well, i just changed the linux-image from generic to server
[14:23] <mikebot> Is there a way to add an mp3 to one of the menus in ubuntu netbook remix?
[14:23] <Kruptein> ikonia can you specify a bit more detailed what I should do?
[14:24] <sacarlson> cablop:  well the kernel image is where the sound drivers are so maybe try go back to the original kernal
[14:24] <saby> sacarlson i am in a problem
[14:24] <Transmitter> Hold up there pappies! I be asking a question
[14:24] <cablop> sacarlson: it sounds like an old documentary, clics and hiss and sudden high pitches and not fluid... like trying to see dunno, a Cosmos episode at school or a very old Nat Geo documentaery XD
[14:24] <Transmitter> and I'll be wanting an answer
[14:24] <ikonia> Kruptein: whats the 15GB partition at the start of the disk ?
[14:24] <boris-> how stable is 10.10 alpha 3 ? am i likely to have a lot of problems with it ?
[14:24] <saby> sacarlson the dell backup software screwed the bootloader and it cant find grub now
[14:24] <sacarlson> saby: how bad of a problem could it be?
[14:24] <Kruptein> ikonia it's described by the ubuntu installer as: "Windows Vista Loader"
[14:24] <ikonia> boris-: discuss in the channel #ubuntu+1 please
[14:24] <Kruptein> although the laptop is windows7 :p
[14:24] <boris-> thank you ikonia
[14:25] <sacarlson> saby: just bootup a live ubuntu cd and fix it
[14:25] <saby> sacarlson now instead of starting grub it says OS not found
[14:25] <ikonia> Kruptein: what actually is it ?
[14:25] <cablop> sacarlson: would the change of kernel affects it?
[14:25] <saby> sacarlson could you tell me the command to repair grub from live cd
[14:26] <sacarlson> cablop: yes it's posible the kernel change or maybe a irq conflict problem
[14:26] <Kruptein> ikonia, you get the option to install vista or windows 7 when you buy the pc,  I chose windows 7 but the vista installer is those 16gb
[14:26] <Oer> !details | Transmitter
[14:26] <zcript> opij i get 11204 / 1044 u/d
[14:26] <saby> sacarlson apt-get install grub ??
[14:27] <sacarlson> saby: yes I think so it's at that link I gave you
[14:27] <cablop> i see
[14:27] <ikonia> Kruptein: shouldn't be a problem I assume the black partitions are free space, or are they actual partitions
[14:27] <sacarlson> saby: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2  but let me look
[14:27] <cablop> well, what are the advantages of  server kernel vs generic kernel?
[14:27] <saby> thanx sacarlson
[14:27] <Ddorda> how do i change the booting image?
[14:27] <sacarlson> saby: no it's not apt-get
[14:27] <saby> ok
[14:27] <Kruptein> ikonia: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_iyz_eo-7hWU/TF1XzSuUd4I/AAAAAAAAAJI/lAab_ZAw4kA/s800/partitions1.png.jpg
[14:28] <ikonia> Kruptein: I've got that image
[14:28] <Kruptein> ikonia * hey are free space, that's why I don't see why I can't use them
[14:28] <ikonia> Kruptein: ahhh yes
[14:28] <ikonia> Kruptein: they are primary partitions
[14:28] <Kruptein> ?
[14:28] <Kruptein> yes indeed
[14:28] <ikonia> Kruptein: you have 4 primary partitions, you can't have any more
[14:29] <Kruptein> ow what should I do then?
[14:29] <spartan15> Hello
[14:29] <Steven> Hi
[14:29] <ikonia> Kruptein: you need to delete a partition, create a logical partition, then create more logical partitions wihin the logical space
[14:29] <Kruptein> ikonia I assume that should be done trough windows
[14:29] <ikonia> Kruptein: can be done through any tool
[14:29] <Ddorda> is the boot vid on the begging is plymouth?
[14:30] <Ddorda> beginning*
[14:30] <Kruptein> ikonia I need to delete one of those black partitions?
[14:30] <ikonia> Kruptein: no, they are free space
[14:30] <ikonia> Kruptein: you need to delete one of your actual (primary) paritions
[14:30] <Kruptein> hm okay which one do you suggest ?
[14:30] <Kruptein> C:\ is well my windows partition,  D:\ is a backup partition
[14:31] <fabiod79> xdcc list
[14:31] <fabiod79> ciao
[14:31] <Kruptein> ikonia I think I'm going to go for the D:\ ?
[14:32] <ikonia> Kruptein: what ever you want
[14:32] <ikonia> Kruptein: d: would be the most logical choice as the free space is on either side of it
[14:33] <Kruptein> ikonia okay thanks will try that with the disk utility of ubuntu
[14:33] <sacarlson> saby: that link I gave you has it search for the string "Reinstalling GRUB 2" in the page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Last%20Boot%20Failed%20or%20Boot%20into%20Recovery%20Mode
[14:33] <Kruptein> ikonia okay I deleted the partition, now create a new partition?
[14:33] <ikonia> Kruptein: yes
[14:33] <Kruptein> or just run the ubuntu install
[14:34] <Kruptein> ext3 or ext4?
[14:34] <saby> sacarlson i found the method in that link
[14:34] <saby> trying it
[14:34] <ikonia> Kruptein: your choice
[14:34] <Kruptein> ikonia if I've done that?
[14:34] <sacarlson> saby: cool
[14:34] <ikonia> Kruptein: then you have a partition
[14:34] <saby> sacarlson yup it worked
[14:35] <sacarlson> saby: every 50 things I give out 1 works
[14:36] <saby> sacarlson i had read in a dell forum that the dell local data backup software is screwing the mbr when windows is started after installing linux
[14:37] <sacarlson> saby: I'm not surprized that's why I run windows in virtualbox so it don't break my linux
[14:38] <saby> sacarlson that is a safe method but i cant do that as i need the resources when i use windows
[14:38] <saby> so i will always need to carry a live cd when i need to use windows :P
[14:39] <ascheel> saby: just wipe the restore partition
[14:39] <saby> ascheel i would have done it but it would screw up my warranty :P
[14:39] <ascheel> by formatting the hard drive??
[14:40] <saby> ascheel even installing linux would screw up the warranty
[14:40] <saby> what ass' are dell guys
[14:40]  * ascheel marks another reason not to buy Dell.
[14:40] <DGM> i took my chances and wiped the restore aswell
[14:40] <DGM> if it ever breaks i'll just wipe the whole HD
[14:40] <DGM> let them prove i touched it
[14:41] <saby> lol
[14:41] <ascheel> saby, you can always pull the hard drive, keep it aside, buy a new hard drive and do what you want
[14:41] <phasip> Doesnt ubuntu-server boot without a cable plugged into eth0?
[14:41] <DGM> ascheel: hmm yea that would've been a more elegant sollution. To late now though :>
[14:41] <oCean_> phasip: mine does
[14:41] <DGM> phasip: yes
[14:41] <saby> ascheel hahaha that is a nice idea
[14:41] <ascheel> phasip: yeah.  it will.
[14:41] <DGM> phasip: but if you messed up the interfaces file it wont boot at all
[14:41] <phasip> Then i have some really random problem
[14:42] <ascheel> saby: Dell ships with crappy hard drives and sizes, anyhow.
[14:42] <DGM> phasip: did you touch the interfaces file?
[14:42] <ascheel> and saby is gone
[14:42] <phasip> Yep, i removed eth0 from it
[14:42] <Digerati> what is the best setup to use when you want a media center that does live tv and recording, and you want to convert from windows media center to linux
[14:42] <oCean_> ascheel: the discussion got offtopic anyway
[14:42] <phasip> and added wlan0
[14:42] <DGM> phasip: well if you made a mistake there, server refuses to boot. You will need to boot it with a live cd and fix it
[14:43] <phasip> yeah, i noticed when trying to get the wlan to work =)
[14:43] <ascheel> phasip: why remove eth0?   Not in the scripts sub-menu
[14:44] <ascheel> DGM, nothing wrong with a server on a wlan.  :)
[14:44] <saby> the video always lags
[14:44] <ascheel> antonio_: yep, that's off topic.
[14:45] <oCean_> phasip: i guess you could boot in recovery mode, fix the interfaces file
[14:45] <DGM> ascheel: slow, unreliable?
[14:45] <antonio_> ascheel: sorry been trying to find some folks that want a free hypnosis session...
[14:45] <edbian> saby, Yes, they do.
[14:45] <phasip> hey!
[14:45] <phasip> Now it booted =/
[14:45] <ascheel> DGM, only if you transfer files a lot.  I use my server to rip videos and convert them with handbrake.
[14:45] <antonio_> its funny how much hypnosis and computers have in common
[14:45] <sacarlson> saby:  flash looks ok to me as long as I keep it small
[14:45] <oCean_> antonio_: not here. Feel free to join #ubuntu-offtopic though
[14:45] <ascheel> DGM: then store them so I can stream them over the wlan
[14:45] <saby> sacarlson, yup but in full screen it starts to lag
[14:46] <ascheel> antonio_: still off topic, sir.  Unless you're hypnotizing your Ubuntu box.
[14:46] <edbian> !ot
[14:46] <DGM> ascheel: i just layed lan cables to my attic.. from there i have a switch to 4 machines :)
[14:46] <saby> megavideo does lag sometimes in small too
[14:46] <sarawara> join /#gimp
[14:46] <bareego> I'm trying to setup a bootp server on ubuntu, the only howtos I can find are for older versions of ubuntu. they use a file /etc/init.d/inetd   Does anyone know into which config file this has changed ? cheers
[14:46] <sacarlson> saby:  ya I noticed that after someone spoke about it
[14:46] <ascheel> DGM, I did the same thing, but the switch is bolted to the side of my desk.  :)  I"m just saying that a wlan is ok, depending on its purposes.  Also, some people live in apartments where holes in walls will cost them mad money later down the road.  :(
[14:46] <saby> sacarlson, which drivers would you suggest ?
[14:47] <saby> are the open source drivers any better ?
[14:47] <edbian> bareego, As far as I know all of those files are still there.  That btw is actually a script.  Used to stop/start inetd
[14:47] <DGM> ascheel: yea maybe. I just try to avoid wlan. I only use it for my laptops (desktop use). The important stuff is all wired
[14:47] <sacarlson> saby:  I don't think we have an option with flash maybe you can get an older one?
[14:47] <sacarlson> saby:  I tried totem and it looked good so it's not the video driver
[14:48] <saby> sacarlson, totem can play online videos ?
[14:48] <Israfel> I'm back, and on Windows. =(
[14:48] <sacarlson> saby:  ya but not flash videos as far as I know
[14:48] <DGM> saby: http://xkcd.com/619/
[14:48] <bareego> edbian, the file isn't there
[14:48] <saby> ok
[14:49] <edbian> bareego, Do you have all the required packages installed?  What are you trying to do?  pixie boot?
[14:49] <oCean_> DGM: please don't paste that here
[14:49] <Israfel> What's the best way to uninstall a bunch of stuff you don't need from command line? I did an update and it filled up my SSD.
[14:49] <saby> lol DGM
[14:49] <bareego> I was working off this howto https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/installation-guide/i386/install-tftp.html
[14:49] <bareego> couldn't find a newer one
[14:50] <erUSUL> Israfel: « sudo aptitude purge bunch of stuff you do not need »
[14:50] <oll> mnjaa
[14:50] <Israfel> Yeah, it's hard to know what I need and what I don't.
[14:50] <Israfel> My SSD was 4GB, and I didn't even have OO installed.
[14:50] <sacarlson>  Israfel: I use the disk usage analizer and sort to find what is really taking up the space and move or delete it
[14:51] <edbian> bareego, Ummm, I'm not sure.  Hang on maybe I can find a newer one.  I have an idea where one might be.
[14:51] <Israfel> I have access to the command line through a terminal, but I can't bot the GUI
[14:51] <bareego> it does the update-inetd line ok but there is no file /etc/init.d/inetd for me to restart
[14:51] <bareego> ty
[14:51] <edbian> bareego, The new method to start / restart a service is "sudo service inetd restart"
[14:52] <edbian> bareego, does that work?
[14:52] <Israfel> Does the Disk Usage work from command line?
[14:52] <sarawara> can I ask Gimp questions here too?
[14:52] <bareego> says unrecognised service
[14:52] <oCean_> sarawara: only if they're closely related to ubuntu. Otherwise it's #gimp
[14:53] <edbian> bareego, Yeah I think you're missing a package.  Can you apt-get install inetd  (just a guess)
[14:53] <freehdr> Hi All
[14:53] <sacarlson> sarawara: I've used gimp before but I'm no expert
[14:53] <bareego> that's prolly it
[14:53] <freehdr> can i ask something here
[14:54] <oCean_> freehdr: this is technical ubuntu support. How can this channel help you?
[14:54] <sarawara> ok, i think it is no ubuntu question but a Gimp question (everyone is sleeping in gimpland) I'd like to have cm instead of inches in 'Scale image'
[14:54] <freehdr> i just a newbie
[14:54] <freehdr> i have install a subversion
[14:54] <saby> i installed adobe air which is 32 bit using the forced architecture command in my x64 ubuntu
[14:55] <freehdr> but get some trouble after i install it
[14:55] <saby> but everytime i install an air app and after that when i update the app breaks
[14:55] <soreau> freehdr: what trouble?
[14:55] <freehdr> when i type -> svnadmin
[14:55] <hal69> do i install as netbook or desktop running winx64 7 using a compaq cq62 laptop
[14:55] <Israfel> Guess there's not a lot of command line experts here.
[14:55] <freehdr> the message ->command not found
[14:55] <oCean_> sarawara: there is "millimeters"
[14:56] <ascheel> Israfel: you want Desktop
[14:56] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[14:56] <george__> I am looking to help develop Ubuntu Maverick any ideas ?
[14:56] <ascheel> Israfel: is it a netbook?  Forgot to ask.
[14:56] <oCean_> george__: 10.10 discussion in #ubuntu+1
[14:56] <hal69> thx!
[14:56] <Israfel> I'm at comand line, I need to delete not essential packages, but I don't know how to use dpkg from command line.
[14:56] <sarawara> I'd like cm as default, not that I have to scroll every image
[14:56] <hal69> can i install w/o password?
[14:56] <Israfel> it's a netbook, and running off a 4GB thumb drive
[14:56] <oCean_> Israfel: dpkg -l shows you all installed packages
[14:57] <freehdr> sory dc
[14:57] <DGM> hal69: yes but its better to use a password and select the auto-login feature instead
[14:57] <Israfel> ok, that started listing everything....... ok, it stopped.
[14:57] <soreau> Israfel: apt-get autoremove
[14:57] <sacarlson> sarawara:  just select the unit selection when you create a new image.  I guess you can convert them too
[14:58] <sacarlson> sarawara:  nomaly mine default in pixals
[14:58] <oCean_> !minimal | Israfel
[14:58] <Israfel> What will it autoremove? lol
[14:58] <freehdr> anyone here can help me configure subversion
[14:58] <soreau> freehdr: Can you show the output of this from your terminal?  ls -l /usr/bin/svnadmin; dpkg -l|grep subversion
[14:59] <d7777777> Do you know of a video editing program that I can use to take one video and put it in a small box in another video? I want to show a presentation slides along with a video of the speaker.
[14:59] <freehdr> ok
[14:59] <freehdr> just a minute
[14:59] <sarawara> yeah, it's in pixels sorry, i'd like to have them in cm, when opening an image I do not determine anything related to the size
[14:59] <freehdr> sudo svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs /home/freehdr /svnrepositor
[14:59] <oCean_> Israfel: autoremove will remove packages no longer needed (i.e. packages that once were dependencies on packages that have been removed)
[14:59] <freehdr> sudo: svnadmin: command not found
[15:00] <soreau> freehdr: Which version of ubuntu are you using?
[15:00] <freehdr> jaunty
[15:00] <hal69> win7 security alert asking two Q's do i bulleyes public N PRIVte networks for pyrun.exe?
[15:00] <oCean_> Israfel: best way to go is the minimal install
[15:00] <ascheel> hal69: sorry bud, but that's a Windows question.
[15:00] <freehdr> sory karmic koala not jaunty
[15:00] <Israfel> oCean_: Thanks. Looks like it's taking out Latex and a few other things I thought I got rid of.
[15:00] <hal69> installing frm win 7
[15:01] <sacarlson> sarawara:  just go to scale image and select the units you want it to be in.
[15:01] <_Nacho_> could anybody please send me any file by dcc just to test the dcc reception ??
[15:01] <_Nacho_> (in XChat - Ubuntu 10.04)
[15:01] <oCean_> sarawara: I told you it's also in mm
[15:01] <freehdr> ?
[15:01] <hal69> i'll chk both them...
[15:01] <soreau> freehdr: How did you install subversion?
[15:01] <sacarlson> sarawara:  there is more at the bottom with centermeter feet and other
[15:02] <freehdr> apt-get install subversion
[15:02] <sarawara> I know how to scroll to get cm or mm, I'd like to have cm by default, so i wouldn't need to scroll for it every time i use it (which is quite often)
[15:02] <soreau> freehdr: Can you show the output of this from your terminal?  ls -l /usr/bin/svnadmin; dpkg -l|grep subversion
[15:02] <zcript> hello guys
[15:02] <oCean_> sarawara: just hit the ▼  next to "pixels"
[15:02] <zcript> I am kinda new to ubuntu.... and i have installed it on my system at hom
[15:02] <j2daosh> anyone know csh?
[15:03] <Israfel> hmm, Odd. I'm at 88% filled. Still won't boot. One of the updates probably borked the GUI somehow.
[15:03] <zcript> but am not connected to the internet at home
[15:03] <sacarlson> j2daosh:  some kind of a shell?
[15:03] <j2daosh> i need to know how to set a variable as the results of a command
[15:03] <j2daosh> csh scripting actually, but yes sacarlson
[15:03] <Israfel> So minimal is an Ubuntu offshoot?
[15:03] <magicianlord> does someone know how to set the home page in the links web browser?
[15:03] <sarawara> oCean, I know how to get mm or cm, I'd like them to be there without scrolling
[15:03] <ascheel> j2daosh: I recommend /join #bash
[15:03] <CppIsWeird> can you mount a hard drive using some unique identifier of the hard drive rather than its /dev/ designation? or figure out its /dev/ designation via some unique and constant identifier?
[15:03] <ikonia> j2daosh: set VARIABLE=blah
[15:03] <oCean_> Israfel: no, just a way to let you choose what you want to install
[15:04] <vol7ron> what happens when I can no longer access the panel with a mouse?  and I can only gain focus on open windows with ALT+Tab
[15:04] <sacarlson> j2daosh:  almost the same as the others what do you want it to do?
[15:04] <zcript> I installed ubuntu on a VM ware at work and I have downloaded some files
[15:04] <magicianlord> vol7ron: use openbox instead of gnome
[15:04] <magicianlord> it's far better
[15:04] <Israfel> oCean_: It's part of the Ubuntu setup then?
[15:04] <ascheel> CppIsWeird: /dev/sd? is the designation.  You must use that.  What specifically are you trying to do?
[15:04] <freehdr> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 42 2010-08-07 17:04 /usr/bin/svnadmin
[15:04] <freehdr> ii  subversion                           1.6.5dfsg-1ubuntu1                         Advanced version control system
[15:04] <j2daosh> ikonia: thats what i though, but the command 'set good = nmap -p 22 ip_address|cut -f2 -d' '' doesn't work
[15:04] <vol7ron> magicianlord: i'm unfamiliar with openbox
[15:04] <freehdr> i don't understand it
[15:04] <zcript> bI have copied the /var/cache/apt/archieves folder
[15:04] <ikonia> j2daosh: that's a shell alias, not a varible
[15:04] <soreau> freehdr: Try starting a new terminal, then run svnadmin
[15:04] <oCean_> Israfel: I send you ubottu's link earlier. It is explained in the url it mentions
[15:05] <vol7ron> i'm gonna have to restart out of this
[15:05] <zcript> but when ever i try to install a program it prompts me for some dependencies
[15:05] <j2daosh> ikonia: what do you mean?
[15:05] <magicianlord> vol7ron: it's highly configurable with hotkeys, clean, and low on resources
[15:05] <freehdr> bash: /usr/bin/svnadmin: Permission denied
[15:05] <CppIsWeird> trying to write a script that will find a specific hard drive and mount it in a specific location regardless of the device designation.
[15:05] <Israfel> !minimal | israfel
[15:05] <zcript> mean while all the libraries are in the same folder
[15:05] <vol7ron> magicianlord: any better than kde?
[15:05] <Israfel> k
[15:05] <soreau> freehdr: Use that command with sudo
[15:05] <magicianlord> kde sucks
[15:05] <oCean_> sarawara: ok, then I don't know. You should wait for an answer in #gimp I'd say
[15:05] <freehdr> sudo: svnadmin: command not found
[15:05] <ascheel> freehdr: sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/svnadmin
[15:05] <ascheel> freehdr: THEN try the command
[15:06] <magicianlord> i recommend a command-line install using alternate cd, then installing xorg and openbox on top of it
[15:06] <ikonia> magicianlord: xorg is part of the alternative install
[15:06] <freehdr> Unknown command: '$@'
[15:06] <freehdr> Type 'svnadmin help' for usage.
[15:06] <zcript> hello guys
[15:06] <ikonia> freehdr: join the channel #subversion to learn how to use subversion
[15:06] <zcript> can any 1 help me

[15:07] <ascheel> freehdr: to totally get rid of the binaries and then reinstall them.
[15:07] <andyn> CppIsWeird: you can use the UUID values instead of the /dev entry. you can get the volume specific UUIDs with volid or blk_id

[15:08] <freehdr> owh i read the manual to make a wrapper script
[15:08] <ikonia> magicianlord: xorg is installed by default from the alternative cd
[15:08] <ascheel> hal69: we're ubuntu users, bud.  Not much Windows knowledge in here and it's very much off topic.
[15:08] <magicianlord> you'r enot listening
[15:08] <magicianlord> i said command line system. not gnome
[15:09] <oCean_> zcript: you have not been very clear on your problem. Try to keep the description all in one single line

[15:09] <Transmitter> your Dad took me to Funky Town
[15:09] <ikonia> magicianlord: how do you install a command line system from the alternative cD ?
[15:09] <maitrey> please can you give me suggestion how much should be the size of the partitions. I would also like to use some free space for dual boot. hdd 320gb
[15:09] <ascheel> hal69: installing from windows 7 isn't allowing you to install Ubuntu?  You wanting to install Ubuntu within windows (wubi) or install OVER windows or install BESIDE windows?
[15:09] <magicianlord> ikonia: press f4 at boot prompts

[15:11] <zcript> I have downloaded VLC to install offline... but when ever I run 'dpkg -i vlc_1.0.6-1ubuntu1.1_i386.deb' a bunch of error msg popup.... that I have to install someother libs.... is there a way 4 dpkg to install the libs auto?
[15:12] <BluesKaj> zs
[15:12] <freehdr> at room subversion not responding
[15:13] <hal69> where the url for laptop?
[15:13] <oCean_> zcript: you should manage your software through apt or aptitude, not dpkg
[15:13] <oCean_> freehdr: that does not make it an ubuntu issue, does it
[15:13] <edbian> zcript, Well it would love to but you're offline right?  So it can't.
[15:13] <BluesKaj> zcript, why not just sudo aptitude install vlc, 1.06 is the default anyway
[15:13] <zcript> but am not connected to the net
[15:13] <oCean_> zcript: then it will not be able to retrieve the dependencies
[15:14] <ascheel> zcript: install vlc from repos, then install the .deb
[15:14] <zcript> ok...... how can I make apt-get or apitute install them offline
[15:14] <edbian> zcript, Because you're not online you can't get the libs that apt needs from the repos.
[15:14] <freehdr> i have modify svn script
[15:14] <zcript> but I was able to copy the files from the cache
[15:14] <freehdr> #! /bin/bash
[15:14] <duffydack> zcript,  try using --download-only

[15:15] <zcript> thanx ubottu
[15:15] <zcript> let me give it a try
[15:15] <zcript> I will get back to you
[15:15] <ascheel> frankS2: a dependency is no longer there.
[15:15] <frankS2> ascheel, okey which package contains that libgio?
[15:15] <j2daosh> zcript: ubottu is a BOT
[15:15] <ascheel> frankS2: try this:  sudo apt-get install libgio-fam
[15:16] <cawnc> does anybody know a good media library? like WMP or Itunes
[15:16] <ascheel> frankS2: just for future reference:  sudo apt-cache search libgio
[15:16] <sacarlson> frankS2: did you compile your own firefox?
[15:16] <ascheel> cawnc: Amarok or Audacious2 are good ones.
[15:16] <frankS2> sacarlson, no but i think i compiled my own glib ...
[15:16] <sr_rules> @ cawnc try songbird

[15:16] <achille><PHONE_NUMBER>1010101010111101010100010101010100101

[15:16] <BluesKaj> cawnc, you mean media player
[15:16] <frankS2> http://pastebin.org/452907
[15:17] <frankS2> sacarlson,  ascheel this when i try to install libgio-fam
[15:17] <zcript> No handler matched request to /ljl
[15:17] <sacarlson> frankS2: maybe reinstall the lib you compiled
[15:17] <zcript> so I guess the site is not openin
[15:17] <freehdr> freehdr@freehdr-laptop:~$ svnadmin
[15:17] <freehdr> Unknown command: '$@'
[15:17] <sacarlson> frankS2: with apt-get?
[15:17] <cawnc> BluesKaj, no i mean media library, many media players arent library oriented
[15:17] <frankS2> sacarlson, no from source, i think it was a newer version
[15:17] <oCean_> ascheel: libgio files don't need to be in libgio package. apt-cache search does a package search
[15:17] <frankS2> thats why this fails now im sure
[15:17] <BluesKaj> cawnc, amarok comes to mind
[15:17] <duffydack> zcript, sudo apt-get install --download-only (package)  is another way.  debs are in /var/cache/apt/archives
[15:18] <shoot^> Howdy folks. Ubuntu reserves UIDs up to 1000. I was wondering whether it is possible to then reserve a further 200 UIDs? So that regular users get added from 1200 onwards?
[15:18] <ascheel> oCean_: correct, but it doesn't hurt to try it.
[15:18] <ascheel> shoot^: not sure on that answer, but you can reassign a UID after a user is created.
[15:18] <ascheel> shoot^: may I ask why?
[15:18] <frankS2> how can i reinstall all dependencies with apt
[15:18] <zcript> I copied them home.... and then "apt-get install vlc" ....but a bunch of errors poped
[15:19] <bowei006> hello i have a problem with ubuntu netbook editiion. i just installed it on my 2004-2005 desktop and it is freezing up!! is this supposed to happen?
[15:19] <shoot^> ascheel, I'm using Puppet to manage a bunch of servers - I'd like to reserve the first 200 odd UIDs for users to be synchronised across multiple machines
[15:19] <freehdr> where should I ask for help for more details
[15:19] <zcript> how to I make point the source to apt.... I tried adding the "/var..." to the source
[15:19] <freehdr> about subversion
[15:19] <sacarlson> frankS2: well you must have installed it into the same location as the other lib that was allready linked to other software you will need to recover the original libs
[15:19] <erUSUL> shoot^: /etc/adduser.conf
[15:19] <j2daosh> zcript: read the doc and make sure you added it correctly
[15:19] <duffydack> zcript, for downloaded debs for offline installation?  use dpkg -i *.deb
[15:19] <frankS2> sacarlson, yep, maybe reinstall all deps to for example firefox? but how
[15:20] <j2daosh> duffydack: he is trying to make an offline repo
[15:20] <zcript> ok...... this sound good duffydack
[15:20] <j2daosh> and now he isn't
[15:20] <j2daosh> lol
[15:20] <shoot^> erUSUL, that is perfect - many thanks
[15:20] <duffydack> lol
[15:20] <ascheel> shoot^: this is slightly off topic of your discussion, but all UIDs past-1000 will show up in the gdm login
[15:20] <duffydack> thought he just wanted to grab the debs for install elsewhere..
[15:20] <sacarlson> frankS2: look at http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-check-package-dependencies-with-apt-rdepends-on-ubuntu.html
[15:21] <zcript> ok j2dosh
[15:21] <shoot^> ascheel - I don't think that will be a problem :)
[15:21] <Guest78426> is there any way to increase the window button sizes (I'm using a default Ubuntu install)?
[15:21] <sacarlson> frankS2: you can have more than one copy of a lib but don't put them in the same location
[15:21] <ascheel> shoot^: just putting that out there.  :)
[15:22] <zcript> duffydack: it worked
[15:22] <shoot^> ascheel, it is always useful to know! :)
[15:22] <frankS2> sacarlson, can i reinstall deps with that one?
[15:22] <zcript> thanks men....... I getting to like liux after all... i  have begun to waiver
[15:23] <zcript> but I like it its challenging
[15:23] <duffydack> I like that 'make script' method tho..
[15:23] <pawush> jest kto¶ z Polski ?:)
[15:23] <Farresito> yep
[15:23] <ascheel> zcript: you want challenging?  Diagnose a Windows Blue Screen of Death!  :)  Diagnosing Ubuntu is easy.
[15:23] <sacarlson> frankS2: I don't know I didn't read it but there must be something that does.  that's how I compile my stuf.  I load the depedencys first then compile
[15:23] <zcript> daffydack: I am kinda new to linux...
[15:24] <zcript> dude am new.... maybe some other time when I profess linux
[15:25] <Guest78426> is there any way to increase the window button sizes (I'm using a default Ubuntu install)?
[15:25] <caac> hi there, when I change the status with the me-menu, my MSN disconnects, any help?
[15:26] <neurochrome> hey folks, I'm trying to create a bash script to put in nautilus-scripts folder that will carry out an eyeD3 command on selected files so far I have this, http://pastebin.com/FraQC5RX , but it will not work, anyone know where I'm going wrong?
[15:26] <neurochrome> Guest78426, change the theme, or hack the current one
[15:27] <dragenov> well guys I am new.....is there any  thing similar to  photoshop something a bit like
[15:27] <Ubuntuyoungkadet> How can I keep my clock updated to the latest time of a specific ntp server?
[15:27] <Guest78426> neurochrome: how can i hack it? are there gconf properties or do you mean something else?
[15:27] <neurochrome> dragenov, gimp?
[15:28] <duffydack> Ubuntuyoungkadet, system/admin/time date
[15:28] <dragenov> can gimp work with layers take the vector apart
[15:28] <neurochrome> Guest78426, I think it's a bit more complex than messing with gconf, you want to follow some tutorials on creating gnome themes
[15:29] <Guest78426> neurochrome: ok, thanks
[15:29] <neurochrome> gimp works with layers, but it is raster-based
[15:29] <dragenov> neurochrome: raster-based
[15:29] <sacarlson> neurochrome: I glanced at it but I'm not sure. my bash is stail.  but there is a #bash irc that I have used if they are awake.
[15:29] <dragenov> neurochrome: ????
[15:29] <neurochrome> sacarlson, yeah, already hit that one, it seems that this should work though
[15:29] <Ubuntuyoungkadet> duffydack,  Thank you so much!
[15:30] <ascheel> sacarlson: we're awake in #bash.  :)
[15:30] <neurochrome> dragenov, raster, as opposed to vector
[15:30] <Ubuntuyoungkadet> duffydack,  I'm gmt+2, what server should I choose?
[15:30] <duffydack> Ubuntuyoungkadet, it`ll be easier in 10.10 :)
[15:30] <sacarlson>  neurochrome:  maybe put something other than that eye thing like echo and see if it loops like you want
[15:30] <miha> i had problems with wlan dropping and not connecting back until reboot... this seems to work: http://edtake.wordpress.com/2010/05/10/ubuntu-lucid-lynx-wireless-keep-dropping/
[15:31] <Guest78426> sacarlson, have you tried using nautilus-actions? I found it to be an easy way to add scripts
[15:31] <Ubuntuyoungkadet> duffydack,  It's ok, I managed, it's not hard in this version either...
[15:31] <freehdr> freehdr@freehdr-laptop:~$ sudo svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs /home/freehdr /svnrepositor
[15:31] <freehdr> sudo: svnadmin: command not found
[15:31] <freehdr> why command not found
[15:31] <MysteryGuy> Can anyone help me fixing a problem?
[15:31] <neurochrome> sacarlson, yeah, I have notify-send'd it and the filename and path are correct
[15:31] <sacarlson> Guest78426: nope
[15:32] <ascheel> freehdr: because if you ls -l `which svnadmin` you will see that it does not have execute permissions.  You need to go to #subversion to diagnose that issue
[15:32] <duffydack> Ubuntuyoungkadet, use any server..
[15:33] <d7777777> Do you know of a video editing program that I can use to take one video and put it in a small box in another video? I want to show a presentation slides along with a video of the speaker.
[15:33] <Ubuntuyoungkadet> duffydack,  Ohhh ok, it says there europe above, so every server should be good isn
[15:33] <Ubuntuyoungkadet> duffydack,  Isn't it?
[15:34] <MysteryGuy> Can anyone help me?
[15:34] <ascheel> !ask | MysteryGuy
[15:34] <sacarlson> MysteryGuy: only if you buy me a beer
[15:35] <MysteryGuy> ok

[15:35] <bullgard> VLC media player 1.0.6 plays an audio CD track on a Thinkpad T42 starting with a blub-blub-blub sound at the beginning of each track. How to repair this? GNOME MPlayer does not do that.
[15:35] <ascheel> MysteryGuy: ask it in here.
[15:35] <MysteryGuy> (external hdd). But Ubuntu itself is right, I managed to boot using VM
[15:35] <ascheel> Oh, you are.  :)
[15:36] <MysteryGuy> Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
[15:36] <Asdfg> hi
[15:36] <sacarlson> MysteryGuy:  maybe reinstall grub
[15:37] <sacarlson> MysteryGuy:  oh external like on a usb
[15:37] <MysteryGuy> I believe it's my Bios
[15:37] <MysteryGuy> yes sacarlson
[15:37] <MysteryGuy> It's on the end of the external HDD
[15:37] <MysteryGuy> 1.5Tb HDD
[15:37] <MysteryGuy> the partition is 50Gb
[15:38] <sacarlson> MysteryGuy:  I'm not sure you can boot a external disk on usb but maybe if you put a boot partition on something else
[15:38] <sacarlson> MysteryGuy:  are there any other devices that you can boot from on this system?
[15:38] <duffydack> j2daosh, I just tried that make package script method in synaptic,  I didnt expect the file it makes in my home folder to be root owned and unable to open again with synaptic.. bad ubuntu devs, bad bad.
[15:39] <MysteryGuy> I can boot into Windows XP in an internal HDD
[15:39] <Transmitter> I solved my problem by downloading and extracting the "gnump3d" tarball then installing it. It worked so well I'd like to slap some of you in the face
[15:39] <MysteryGuy> and I'm using liveCD right now
[15:39] <Transmitter> directly in the face
[15:39] <sacarlson> MysteryGuy:  ok then I'm wrong
[15:39] <ascheel> Transmitter: neat
[15:40] <j2daosh> huh?
[15:40] <sacarlson> MysteryGuy: so your bios is set to boot on usb.  what device would the bios see it as?
[15:40] <neurochrome> MysteryGuy, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/installing-ubuntu-to-a-usb-hard-drive/
[15:40] <MysteryGuy> USB
[15:40] <MysteryGuy> it treats it as an HDD
[15:41] <MysteryGuy> but it says [USB] at start
[15:41] <neurochrome> MysteryGuy, what is the exact title given to the usb in bios?  there are normally several different types : usb-ffd, usb-zip, etc
[15:41] <sacarlson> MysteryGuy:  I don't know the only think I boot off usb is a flash drive so maybe install the software the same as you would a flash usb drive
[15:42] <MysteryGuy> I don't think I saw anything like that, neurochrome
[15:43] <sacarlson> neurochrome:  MysterGuy: ya I think with a flash drive I use the usb-zip one
[15:43] <timaaarrreee> what is apt-get?
[15:43] <neurochrome> MysteryGuy, I use usb-hdd
[15:43] <Farresito> apt get? I thing is for taking files from repository
[15:44] <neurochrome> timaaarrreee, it is a command that utilises apt - the package manager
[15:44] <neurochrome> sudo apt-get install package-name
[15:44] <ascheel> timaaarrreee: apt-get is how you install software packages from the repositories.
[15:44] <Farresito> yep, apt is a packaging tool
[15:44] <neurochrome> !apt | timaaarrreee
[15:44] <Farresito> is a command
[15:44] <timaaarrreee> ah ok
[15:44] <Notepad> the sound dont work for me on either of my soundcards (have two)
[15:44] <ascheel> timaaarrreee: welcome to Linux where if you want some drawing programs, you don't have to go to Best Buy and spend $70.  You type in 1 command and away you go.
[15:44] <Notepad> anyone know what the problem might be?
[15:45] <Farresito> see this: http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Packaging_Tool

[15:46] <Raydiation1> is there an easy way to encrypt your home directory after the install?
[15:46] <jushoa> hey all
[15:46] <neurochrome> Notepad, you really want to provide people with the outputs of the following commands :  sudo lshw && lspci -vv && lsmod && lsusb
[15:46] <neurochrome> post it to pastein
[15:46] <ingu> Raydiation1: ecryptfs-utils?
[15:46] <Linux> i uninstall google chrome but lock...how can i fix this? http://screenr.com/IFO
[15:46] <Notepad> ok neurochrome hold on
[15:47] <Farresito> timareee see this: http://linux.die.net/man/8/apt-get
[15:47] <Raydiation1> ingu: but i have to change the fstab right?
[15:47] <Farresito> it may work
[15:47] <cement_head> @Linux  how'd you do the screencast?
[15:47] <Linux> with screenr
[15:47] <ingu> Raydiation1: not sure, but you could check out the man pages. ecryptfs-utils does have a facility to encrypt entire home
[15:47] <geirha> Linux: My guess is the panel just hasn't noticed it's gone yet.
[15:47] <bullgard> VLC media player 1.0.6 plays an audio CD track on a Thinkpad T42 starting with a blub-blub-blub sound at the beginning of each track. How to repair this? GNOME MPlayer does not do that.

[15:48] <ascheel> bullgard: I recommend /join #videolan

[15:48] <adub> can windows 2003 server dual boot with ubuntu?
[15:48] <Linux> geriha...i restart my pc...i kill the pannel from terminal and i opened again and same problem :(
[15:48] <raven> linux on ipaq possible?
[15:48] <ascheel> XunZi: .mpg is only a filename.  They may not be actual .mpg files.  Either way, Nautilus doesn't know the format they are in
[15:48] <neurochrome> XunZi, I think you can set it to not show files over a certain size
[15:48] <aquifex> is there a channel concentrated on ubuntu hard-technical side?
[15:48] <Raydiation1> ingu: ty
[15:48] <aquifex> or this is only one?
[15:48] <cement_head> @Linux  Where do you get "screenr"?
[15:49] <Notepad> neurochrome its to long not all the info fits in the terminal but here it is http://pastebin.com/zqmibkm0
[15:49] <neurochrome> XunZi, nautilus>preferences>preview
[15:49] <XunZi> neurochrome, all these .mpg are hd movies files. so they are roughly of the same size
[15:49] <Linux> screenr.com its a web based application...you dont need to download someting! just must have Java Runtime not OpenJDK because OpenJDK crash
[15:49] <neurochrome> Notepad, do the entire command but add > ~/Desktop/output.txt to the end
[15:49] <Notepad> ok
[15:50] <neurochrome> Notepad, then open the file on the desktop and paste the contents
[15:50] <XunZi> neurochrome, is there a way to tell nautilus to regenerate thumbnails for these files?
[15:50] <neurochrome> XunZi, probably, I would just delete the ~/.thumbnails folder
[15:51] <cement_head> @Linux thanks, I like OpenJDK a lot better though
[15:51] <aquifex> how to incerase/decrease the number of boots before filesystem integrity check?
[15:51] <cement_head> less buggy than the SUN version
[15:51] <Linux> raven what is ipaq?

[15:53] <XunZi> Nautilus should make the thumbnails fine
[15:54] <Linux> tina is stram code that connect to and let you to listen someting online...
[15:54] <Linux> on a server
[15:54] <neurochrome> Notepad, you missed the  > it should be sudo lshw && lspci -vv && lsmod && lsusb > ~/Desktop/output.txt
[15:54] <Notepad> ahh thx
[15:54] <DarkSector> Notepad, if I am not wrong, you're missing a >
[15:54] <DarkSector> oh yeah
[15:54] <Kasjopaja> please.....tiina not tina :D
[15:54] <Linux> tiina my bad :D
[15:55] <neurochrome> XunZi, yeah, it is only the preview that is not loading, because they are probably too large, there is a filesize limit set in nautilus for previews
[15:55] <Linux>  i uninstall google chrome but lock...how can i fix this? http://screenr.com/IFO
[15:55] <Linux> please???
[15:55] <MC9> quit
[15:55] <XunZi> neurochrome, I am talking about the thumbnails
[15:55] <Notepad> neurochrome this was all i got http://pastebin.com/Lx5C7P99
[15:56] <jushoa> anybody tried the new starcraft 2 on wine yet ???
[15:56] <xangua> Linux: did you purge google chrome package¿
[15:56] <PewZ> jushoa: I have. It works pretty good
[15:56] <Linux> no...i simple remove from synaptic
[15:56] <neurochrome> XunZi, ahh sorry, well couldn't tell you to be honest
[15:56] <aquifex> what is actually checked during routine integrity check?
[15:57] <xangua> Linux: purge=completely remove it¿¿ or just marked 'uninstall' ¿¿
[15:57] <Linux> xanuga i chose "Mark for complete removal"
[15:57] <aquifex> what kind of things?
[15:57] <ascheel> XunZi: the files aren't necessarily files that nautilus knows how to read.
[15:57] <jushoa> PewZ.... ok.... did u do anything speciel ??? or did u just installed it, any dll file needed or something ???
[15:57] <neurochrome> Notepad, doh! sudo lshw > ~/Desktop/output.txt && lspci -vv >> ~/Desktop/output.txt  && lsmod >> ~/Desktop/output.txt  && lsusb >> ~/Desktop/output.txt
[15:57] <aquifex> what is that "system integrity" and if there was an error found
[15:58] <aquifex> error on root partition which
[15:58] <PewZ> jushoa: I couldn't get the installer on the DVD to work, so I just transferred the game from a friend. But I have heard that the online installer works
[15:58] <aquifex> was then fixed by the system is there a data damage or something?
[15:58] <XunZi> ascheel, neurochrome I found a solution
[15:58] <xangua> Linux: maybe if you restore gnome's default settings¿¿ some one know the factoid for that¿¿
[15:59] <Linux> xanga like...chi\ose default theme or what?
[15:59] <Notepad> neurochrome here you go and sorry that im so much trouble, I realy appriciate the help http://pastebin.com/P51srASF
[15:59] <Linux> chose*
[15:59] <jushoa> PewZ..... great idea.... did the same to WoW... the great thing is that u dont need to install it all over and download all the patches
[16:00] <DGM> jushoa: yea reinstalling wow all the time is a pain :)
[16:00] <Linux> xangua like...chose default theme...or what?
[16:00] <PewZ> jushoa: Yeah, saves a lot of time
[16:00] <aquifex> what is actually checked during routine integrity check
[16:00] <jushoa> PewZ...total ;-)
[16:02] <jushoa> PewZ...and regarding to Wow...I never got it to work with cedega or crossover...but worked liked a charm with just plain wine
[16:02] <aquifex> Wow addiction:P
[16:02] <ascheel> WoW works just fine in Wine with me.
[16:02] <DGM> just tell it to use opengl and it will work just fine
[16:02] <PewZ> Yeah, works fine here too
[16:02] <DGM> cedega no different i'm sure
[16:03] <jushoa> the world is not going to get better... i chat, see navi csi and drink beer
[16:03] <neurochrome> Notepad, I have to go, but my first advice would be to turn off the onboard soundcard in the bios and try again, also post on ubuntuforums the problem and also the same content as you just pastbined
[16:03] <jom> jjj
[16:03] <Notepad> neurochrome ok thx for the time tho
[16:04] <neurochrome> neurochrome, your card is being detected and there are modules loaded for your realtek too
[16:04] <Notepad> I realy appriciated it
[16:04] <neurochrome> Notepad, np
[16:04] <jushoa> Like I wrote, It worked fine in wine, but in cross over the update and loading screen fails
[16:04] <neurochrome> Notepad, good luck

[16:07] <saby> _Nacho_ :P
[16:07] <Linux> saby tipe in YouTube Samba or NixiePixel
[16:07] <DGM> saby: just share the folders inside windows, and then go to places -> Network
[16:07] <Linux> :)
[16:07] <DGM> then you can browse through it
[16:07] <DGM> samba should be installed by default
[16:07] <my_haz> i set the umask to 666 in rssh.conf but i am still getting 022, what am i missing?
[16:08] <_Nacho_> yes, with samba its easy but you will not know what you are doing ...
[16:09] <saby> Linux, DGM , i installed samba and after that its showing me the name of the pc in networks, when i open it, it asks for user id and password and i enter it but it isnt able to connect
[16:10] <saby> Linux, both the pc and the laptop are on the same network and have the same gateway

[16:26] <Dante123> hi all,  friend of my son's bought a Dell Mini 10v and asked me to put Ubuntu on it.  Problem is that the computer is flaky with wireless at her house which has wireless N router....I bring the mini here and it works fine for me.  Any ideas?
[16:27] <Linux> Dante123 Ubuntu cand handle very well the WiFi
[16:27] <Linux> is like that from long time ago
[16:28] <FenBo> DarkSector, I do not follow you.    Can I upgrade to 64-bit just by building a new kernel or is there more to it?
[16:28] <DarkSector> FenBo, n00b + experience + humility == bill gates :D
[16:28] <Dante123> Linux....like I said...the wifi works....but is very flaky....drops connections frequently.
[16:29] <Linux> yes i now
[16:29] <Dante123> Linux, seems to be like that from the beginning.  However, at my house with wireless g....it runs fine for hours.
[16:29] <wombatguy> wifi is good but not perfect for every card
[16:29] <wombatguy> you need provide details of the card and maybe the wireless n is the bottleneck here
[16:29] <Dante123> jimbo_ there is more to it than that I believe
[16:29] <Linux> wombatguy rong!!!
[16:30] <Linux> is not network card fault
[16:30] <Linux> is the sistem problem
[16:30] <Dante123> it is a broadcomm 43xx
[16:30] <Linux> because if she put windows the WiFi dont drop !!
[16:30] <Linux> i guarante you
[16:30] <Dante123> Oh, it is flaky on windows too
[16:30] <Dante123> she has dual boot
[16:30] <FenBo> DarkSector, cool but what to get Bill Gates FREE? anyhow I have the lamp server set up and just want to uninstall phpmyadmin and run thru again. Looked at your url. very good but I just want to do the php reinstall
[16:31] <wombatguy> well actually that may be totally different
[16:31] <Linux> Dante123 she have the right driver specific to XP only? or generic drivers?
[16:31] <DarkSector> FenBo, you don't have to re install php
[16:31] <Dante123> when I start up the restricted drivers.....it shows two options...something like broadcomm 43xx and broadcomm STA...
[16:32] <DarkSector> FenBo, all you can do is you can edit the apache2.conf if you've followed the above steps
[16:32] <sandking_> hi
[16:32] <Dante123> Linux, the dell mini came with windows xp straight from dell and has the specific driver for the wireless card
[16:32] <kenalex> one other question is there any disadvantage in running ubuntu in a virtual machine for software development
[16:32] <DarkSector> FenBo, also if you DO want to remove php, you can do sudo apt-get remove php5 in the terminal
[16:32] <sandking_> anyone knows what can i do about not hearing earphones ouput on eee 1001p?
[16:32] <Linux> Dante123 if she drop with windows to than...what you whant?
[16:32] <Linux> :)
[16:32] <sandking_> i see only analog output and analog speakers output
[16:32] <FenBo> DarkSector, thanks
[16:33] <wildc4rd> afternoon all
[16:33] <DarkSector> FenBo, no problem
[16:33] <wombatguy> well could actually be a hardware issue
[16:33] <wombatguy> and I don't think that argument Linux made earlier made any sense
[16:33] <Dante123> Well, I'm trying to determine what the problem is.....ie.  bad wireless in pc then lets return to dell OR is it that the wireless N router does not play nice with this particular card
[16:33] <Linux> who tell you Dante123 if you put ubuntu the wifi dont drop? :))
[16:34] <wombatguy> many wifi cards sadly aren't open source with respect to their drivers so yea something might work better in the native environment of those drivers
[16:34] <cannonfodder> hey you guys..i get a message "operation not supported by backend" when i try rename one of my discs
[16:34] <wombatguy> so just because the card works better in windows then ubuntu doesn't prove anything
[16:35] <Linux> the wireless card used in mini laptop is to poor or bad...is to tiny...and cheep
[16:35] <Dante123> no one told me that....and I never said that.  I'm telling you that at her house it is flaky....on windows and ubuntu.  At my house it works fine.....so that makes me think wireless n router does not like this card...is that possible?  Are there any suggestions for workaround?
[16:35] <cannonfodder> hey you guys..i get a message "operation not supported by backend" when i try rename one of my discs
[16:35] <Linux> umont firts!
[16:35] <Linux> and then rename it
[16:36] <Linux> unmount*
[16:36] <wombatguy> Dante123: yes it's possible
[16:36] <wombatguy> Dante123: Is the router where you are also wireless-n
[16:36] <cannonfodder> thanks
[16:43] <Dante123> wombat guy, I there....yes the router where I am is also wireless n.  I'm just googling and seeing now that it seems this card has issues with channel 6
[16:43] <Dante123> on both windows and ubuntu
[16:43] <Dante123> i believe I am using channel 11

[17:24] <marekw2143> kuttan_: I updated netmask to <IP_ADDRESS>, actual interfaces: http://pastebin.org/453392
[17:24] <hsa2> why ubuntu is using pulseaudio while it's not working allright with flash? my flash sounds are not in sync, and i can't find any solution!
[17:24] <kuttan_> marekw2143: You can insert a line above netmask line
[17:25] <wombatguy> hsa2: are you on ubuntu 10.04
[17:25] <kuttan_> marekw2143: now try ifdown & then ifup eth0
[17:25] <hsa2> wombatguy, yes, and my system is fully up-to-date
[17:26] <hsa2> and i know it's not a hardware issue, i tried it on a second machine and pulseaudio still fails on it
[17:26] <wombatguy> and you have checked the flash file on another system where it works as you'd expect or have you checked multiple systems
[17:26] <marekw2143> kuttan_: after inserting blank line above netmask still cant ping gateway
[17:27] <wombatguy> i haven't had an issue with pulseaudio here for some time though i did have to do something back in 8.10 or something might have been 9.10
[17:27] <hsa2> wombatguy, multiple systems and multiple flash files
[17:27] <wombatguy> you are also using the most current flash player correct?
[17:27] <hsa2> wombatguy, yes
[17:27] <hsa2> wombatguy, when you hit pause on youtube, doesn't sound still play for half a sec?
[17:29] <gizmobay> Anyone know of a free dns forwarding where they don't make you login every 60 days?
[17:29] <hsa2> wombatguy, ?
[17:29] <wombatguy> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio <- i had to do this libflashsupport thing some time ago but not sure what it would help now
[17:29] <collabra> gizmobay: no-ip.com
[17:29] <frankS2> Hello guys, i recently formated my ubuntu and installed it again, I had a raid0 setup there which i cannot access now, i only see the discs /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc but not the lvm volumes inside it
[17:29] <wombatguy> my system was just upgraded from there to here though eventually i will do a fresh install again
[17:30] <hsa2> wombatguy, i'll check now, if it works, i'll sudo make you a sandwich
[17:30] <spinningcompass> frankS2: Is the raid device visible? Is it the LVM volume that's not visible?
[17:30] <blue112> Hi here
[17:30] <gizmobay> thanks collabra, I use them now. They make you login every so often. I've been paying but I don't use it a ton.
[17:31] <frankS2> spinningcompass, the raid is not visible i dont think so
[17:31] <wombatguy> youtube stops somewhat abruptly and theres something but it's not out of sync or anything
[17:31] <frankS2> spinningcompass, i dont remember how i created it, i wonder if it was with mdraid
[17:31] <perlmonkey2> Is there a server admin tool so that I can easily start and stop mysql/apache?
[17:31] <pjs_> hi, for some reason I can't start emacs23 from the application menu in the panel, although it does start from a terminal. Can anyone suggest what might be wrong?
[17:32] <wombatguy> a link
[17:32] <collabra> gizmobay: if you use the noip updater it logs you in automatically... no need to manually log in.
[17:32] <spinningcompass> frankS2: That's fine, but when you type 'cat /proc/mdstat', do you see the RAID devices?
[17:32] <hsa2> wombatguy, can you also test gamezer.com please, click on links and see if sound comes as quick as you click
[17:32] <frankS2> Personalities :
[17:32] <frankS2> unused devices: <none
[17:32] <frankS2> thats all
[17:33] <gizmobay> don't you have to login to the site every so often to keep from them deleting your host redirects?
[17:33] <collabra> gizmobay: not if you use the noip updater.
[17:34] <perlmonkey2> so weird that Ubuntu doesn't have the gnome services admin tool and that there isn't an alternative.
[17:34] <wombatguy> hsa2: do i need to register?
[17:34] <oCean_> frankS2: I'm not sure about the raid setup, but pvscan/lvscan should scan all your disks for physical and logical volumes available
[17:34] <llutz> collabra: does that work, even if the IP won't change?
[17:35] <hsa2> wombatguy, nope, http://www.gamezer.com/billiards/ and try to login with a blank input
[17:35] <collabra> llutz: yeah,... you can set it to update every day, or two, or a week,...
[17:35] <hsa2> when you hit login button, a ding sounds
[17:35] <collabra> no-ip keeps track
[17:35] <dagon666> is it possible to disable to gdm "loading bar" in karmic ?
[17:35] <gizmobay> collabra, do you know the latest rev of noip2 is?
[17:36] <collabra> gizmobay: uh,... just a sec...
[17:36] <cristofer> klk
[17:36] <gizmobay> never mind I found it
[17:36] <gizmobay> 2.1.9
[17:36] <collabra> k
[17:36] <frankS2> spinningcompass, lvscan shows my volumes inside the raid :O
[17:36] <[3]nertia> Where should I start looking if I need to fix X?
[17:36] <[3]nertia> It just hangs when I try to login :|
[17:37] <oCean_> frankS2: meaning? lvdisplay shows the volumes being active now?
[17:37] <frankS2> http://pastebin.com/DVyRCzb3
[17:37] <patrycja> jest tu ktoś??

[17:38] <frankS2> http://pastebin.com/fF3k4PAb this is pvscan
[17:38] <oCean_> frankS2: I think you have to activate the volume groups (vgchange -a y vgname, in your case I think the vgname = data)
[17:39] <daytim3> i have a hp dv6-2190us running ubuntu 10.04lts and i want to know how to get the built in cam to work with empathy or pidgin or any of the msn clients

[17:41] <uBUTTtu> i am extracting an archive of a linux filesystem and after it "extracts" it gives me this error http://pastebin.org/453450
[17:42] <[3]nertia> Thanks for the help

[17:42] <SKUser636> hello, I was trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 on my pc and it shows the splash salmon colored loading screen and immediately afterwards the monitor goes "no signal detected" and turns off. anyone have a solution?
[17:42] <uBUTTtu> what does that error mean?
[17:42] <magoo> Algum Brasileiro ai
[17:43] <oCean_> !pt | magoo
[17:43] <Israfel> uBUTTtu: it means you don't have permission.
[17:43] <uBUTTtu> it's important that i am able to do this, how do i do it?
[17:43] <rezolute> dakisback; you're on a socket 775 motherboard with an nvidia card, right?
[17:43] <daytim3> i have a hp dv6-2190us running ubuntu 10.04lts and i want to know how to get the built in cam to work with empathy or pidgin or any of the msn clients
[17:44] <dakisback> rezolute, My motherboard is lga 1366 with an ati radeon HD 5870
[17:44] <rezolute> odd
[17:45] <uBUTTtu> so how do i extract without the permission problem?
[17:45] <magoo> !pt | Oi
[17:45] <kuttan_> ello All
[17:45] <hjack> hello
[17:45] <dakisback> I also notice it responds to my commands... Just black screen monitor no signal
[17:45] <rezolute> dakisback: pull whatever connection you have the monitor connected to, and connect to the other dvi.
[17:45] <Israfel> uBUTTtu: Were the old archives using a different file system?
[17:45] <dakisback> ok
[17:46] <dakisback> I will try that that sounds like a good Idea its probably defaulting to the first one
[17:46] <uBUTTtu> nope, just regular data
[17:46] <dakisback> be back if it doesnt work.

[17:46] <Raydiation> hi, any date for the first bugfix release of 10.04
[17:46] <oCean_> uBUTTtu: and you're overwriting all of your devicenodes?
[17:46] <ikonia> uBUTTtu: you are not supposed to tar up /dev
[17:46] <ikonia> uBUTTtu: /dev is dynamic with udev
[17:47] <ikonia> uBUTTtu: only a few nodes (console for example) are static
[17:47] <maco> Raydiation: yes, 2 weeks ago
[17:47] <jamezek> hi
[17:47] <Raydiation> maco: oh rly? great :)
[17:47] <jamezek> is anyone getting a white empty rectangle box at the top left of ubuntu 10.04 ?
[17:47] <uBUTTtu> im just setting up a linux filesystem to use on my g1
[17:47] <jamezek> it pops up for a few seconds after i log in
[17:48] <uBUTTtu> had problems last time so im making sure everything is kosher now
[17:48] <ikonia> uBUTTtu: you shouldn't be using /dev or /proc
[17:48] <Digerati> what is the best setup to use when you want a media center that does live tv and recording, and you want to convert from windows media center to linux
[17:48] <parabol> android ftw
[17:48] <epifanio> hi All
[17:48] <uBUTTtu> you can get a g1 for 80$'s have fun hacking it
[17:48] <parabol> i have a droid
[17:48] <ikonia> uBUTTtu: that's not really relevant to this channels topic
[17:48] <parabol> running cyanogen
[17:49] <epifanio> guys, do you know a way to ask the system if a package is installed or not ? i need to receive this information from a python script
[17:49] <hsa2> hi
[17:49] <hsa2> why ubuntu is using pulseaudio while it's not working allright with flash? my flash sounds are not in sync, and i can't find any solution!
[17:50] <ikonia> epifanio: just query dpgk
[17:50] <maco> epifanio: dpkg -l $PACKAGE | grep ^ii
[17:50] <vinux_fr> hi coudl you help me : how can mount FTP like a filesystem on Ubuntu. I just use curlftpfs but there are some bugs ... Do you know an alternative ?
[17:51] <epifanio> ikonia: maco thanks, hence the best way from python will be a system call using the "os" module ?
[17:51] <maco> epifanio: yep
[17:51] <maco> epifanio: well or you could use the apt library for python i guess
[17:51] <aquifex> hi is the system was turned off during grub/booting can it damage the fiesystem?
[17:51] <aquifex> if
[17:51] <ikonia> aquifex: yes
[17:52] <DGM> hmm random wine crash from wow.. thats new
[17:52] <aquifex> then if the system fixed the errors, and the comment of "error on root partition" never appeared again,
[17:52] <aquifex> are my files safe?
[17:53] <ikonia> aquifex: yes, the system corrected the error
[17:53] <trakinas> hi everyon! I've just installed Ubuntu 10.04 and forgot to set the mount point for the /home/, so Im configuring the fstab now. I need some help with the parameters
[17:53] <Luija1006> People is there any command to look for a program in my pc?
[17:53] <ikonia> Luija1006: what do you want to find ?
[17:53] <hemza> is it secure to delete all files in "/system/tmp" folder
[17:53] <Luija1006> for example, java plugin
[17:53] <ikonia> Luija1006: that will be in your mozilla directory
[17:53] <aquifex> so there is 100% confidence that everything is ok now? (and i should stop seeking for problems?)
[17:53] <Luija1006> but i mean, there was a command someone told me that i forgot
[17:54] <Luija1006> that was like
[17:54] <Luija1006> where java
[17:54] <Luija1006> or look java
[17:54] <FloodBot2> Luija1006: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:54] <oCean_> Luija1006: locate
[17:54] <ikonia> Luija1006: however if you installed it using the package manager (as you should have done) dpkg -l | grep java should show
[17:54] <coz_> vinux_fr vous essayez  filezilla  peut-être
[17:54] <ikonia> aquifex: you're fine
[17:54] <aquifex> great!
[17:54] <Luija1006> oCean_: thanks buddie :)
[17:54] <Luija1006> ikonia: thanks
[17:54] <aquifex> thanks!
[17:54] <trakinas> should I use defaults?
[17:55] <vinux_fr> coz_: je n'utilise pas filezilla mais j'ai besoin de monter un partage ftp comme un système de fichiers
[17:55] <trakinas> hi everyon! I've just installed Ubuntu 10.04 and forgot to set the mount point for the /home/, so Im configuring the fstab now. I need some help with the parameters = dont know if I posted that..... sorry!)
[17:56] <maco> !fr | vinux_fr
[17:56] <ikonia> trakinas: why don't you just ask what you want to know
[17:56] <hemza> is it secure to delte all files in "/tmp " folder
[17:56] <trakinas> now, I repeat: should I use defaults? i.e. /dev/sda2       /home/          ext3    default 0 1
[17:56] <icmp_request> Hey guys, what is the safest way to safely remove an USB mass storage device (pen drive, external hd, etc.) from command line? I've tried 'umount' and 'eject' but the green light on the USB is still on... somehow ubuntu has the option to 'safely remove' on it's gui and it turns the light off, is there any way to do it on Gentoo's command line?
[17:56] <ikonia> hemza: secure ? you're deleting files, that's very secure
[17:56] <ikonia> trakinas: that's fine if your using ext3
[17:56] <vinux_fr> ubottu: on me répond en français aussi ici ...
[17:57] <ikonia> icmp_request: green light normally = power
[17:57] <maco> icmp_request: umount is the thing. possibly the light's staying on til it finishes syncing?
[17:57] <jeremyn> if i have windows and ubuntu installed as dual boot on the same hard drive, and i do pre-boot authentication for windows with truecrypt, will that mess up my ability to boot into ubuntu?
[17:57] <llutz> trakinas:  ... defaults 0 1
[17:57] <ikonia> jeremyn: no
[17:57] <coz_> vinux_fr,   oh ok je ne sais pas comment faire désolé
[17:57] <maco> coz_, vinux_fr:  #ubuntu-fr
[17:58] <icmp_request> ikonia: but is there a way to interrupt the power from the port like windows and ubuntu do? | maco: nope, it keeps always on =/
[17:58] <icmp_request> I mean the device is umounted etc.
[17:58] <daytim3> how do i register with freenode
[17:58] <ikonia> icmp_request: I wouldn't worry about power
[17:58] <sie> daytim3, /q nickserv help
[17:58] <ikonia> !register > daytim3
[17:58] <icmp_request> so probably it's safe to remove
[17:58] <maco> icmp_request: if its unmounted it can be removed
[17:58] <vinux_fr> coz_: no problem but you should talk only in english on #ubuntu ;)
[17:58] <niekvlessert> anyone familiar with ubuntu as a guest on virtualbox and videodriver problems with guest additions?
[17:58] <maco> icmp_request: the point of safely eject is to sync & unount
[17:58] <jeremyn> ikonia: what does truecrypt do, exactly, do you know? does it make it so that when i choose windows in grub2, it points to the truecrypt bootloader?
[17:58] <Luija1006> what was the name of the java plugin? sun-java-plugin?
[17:58] <coz_> vinux_fr,  ok english it is.... how about  gnomecommander??
[17:59] <ikonia> jeremyn: it's just encyption, nothing more
[17:59] <jeremyn> ikonia: no, pre-boot authentication means truecrypt has to insert itself into the boot process, i'm worried that it will muck up grub2
[17:59] <icmp_request> I see so why does windows and ubuntu besides unmounting interrupts power to the device? but if you say it's safe... thanks =)
[17:59] <trakinas> llutz: I see! In your fstab, how is it? My partition is ext3.
[17:59] <ikonia> jeremyn: no it doesn't
[17:59] <ikonia> jeremyn: it will be fine
[18:00] <llutz> trakinas: your line is fine, its just called" defaults" not default.
[18:00] <Steve^> Hi, I need to add a DNS wildcard to my machine, can I do that by editing a file somewhere?
[18:00] <jeremyn> ikonia: everything is backed up so i'll give it a shot. thanks.
[18:00] <ikonia> Steve^: what do you mean, add a dns wildcard
[18:00] <trakinas> llutz: thank you! =]
[18:01] <Steve^> ikonia, a wildcard subdomain, for a wordpress installation
[18:01] <ikonia> Steve^: you need to edit the dns servers that host your domain then
[18:01] <Steve^> ikonia, I'm doing it locally
[18:01] <ikonia> Steve^: then you need to edit your dns servers
[18:01] <Steve^> ikonia, which brings me back to my original question
[18:02] <ikonia> Steve^: what dns servers are you running ?
[18:02] <Steve^> ikonia, whatever comes preinstalled
[18:02] <ikonia> Steve^: none
[18:02] <rlankfo> lulz
[18:03] <muthu> how to link the local drivers to virtual box on ubuntu..? please anyone help me...
[18:03] <Steve^> ikonia, what would you recommend I install?
[18:03] <ikonia> Steve^: I recommend you don't use a sub domain if you're just testing wordpress
[18:04] <ikonia> Steve^: I recommend just having a fake domain in your host file and using that to test your wordpress install before go live
[18:05] <hemza> is there a tool to delete temporary files
[18:05] <ikonia> hemza: rm
[18:05] <kuttan_> hemza: tool is called rm
[18:06] <ikonia> hemza: also applications (firefox for example) have tools built in, eg: delete history files, etc
[18:06] <kuttan_> Is there any way I avoid these " a-z left the room " messages ?

[18:07] <muthu> how to link the local drivers to virtual box on ubuntu ...? please anyone help me...
[18:07] <maco> kuttan_: "how" varies by client though
[18:07] <trakinas> this empathy auto-scrolling is driving me insane.....
[18:07] <kuttan_>  maco: how  and where do I set this
[18:08] <kuttan_>  maco: I am using pidgin right bow
[18:08] <hemza> but to use those tools u need to find temporary files by ur self ... i need a tool that find shred all temporary files automatically
[18:08] <maco> kuttan_: not a clue with pidgin. it ignores a lot of irc commands
[18:08] <maco> kuttan_: its not a very good irc client
[18:08] <kuttan_>  maco: so which client is being used by you
[18:08] <muthu> how do you link the local drivers from the linux to the virtualbox  on the unbntu....?
[18:09] <kuttan_>  maco: thanks for help :)
[18:09] <maco> kuttan_: i use quassel because i use kubuntu.  xchat is popular for gnome users
[18:09] <hemza> i find that ubuntu store my root password in unsecure place which can be reched easily
[18:09] <hsa2> wombatguy, you disappeared?
[18:09] <ikonia> hemza: no you don't find that
[18:09] <kuttan_> maco: then I will try xchat then
