[04:33] <litropy> Hi, peeps. When I gksu gdm setup, I get things like "WARNING **: Unable to find users: no seat-id found" and when I click "Unlock", Unlock fades, but no functions activaate for input.
[04:33] <Emanon> it might be scott
[04:33] <coz_> invitado,  when that opens click the "X Server Display Configuration"
[04:33] <VintageRitz> lulu7: head to bed then. thanks for the time and help.
[04:34] <coz_> invitado,   there on the right...you should see a graphic of your monitor.....yes?
[04:34] <lulu7> VintageRitz: Hope that gets working for you.
[04:34] <invitado> Wait, let me change to SUDO BASH
[04:35] <melow01> I'm getting into using forums more and more. Is there a way to have a single username that will work for all forums?
[04:35] <VintageRitz> lulu7: me too. If not, I'll just make a small pest of myself until I stumble onto an answer.
[04:35] <coz_> melow01,  no ..not unless you register on each forum with that name
[04:36] <scott_ino> melow01, get a unique username ;)
[04:36] <melow01> coz_, bummer.
[04:36] <melow01> scott_ino, how's that work?
[04:36] <coz_> melow01,  for example .. i would assume that  "melow01" is unique enough for every forum :)
[04:36] <Emanon> so at the risk of being annoying any idea on the date change thing?
[04:36] <invitado> coz_: I cant
[04:36] <invitado> i am in another user
[04:36] <coz_> invitado,  oh
[04:36] <invitado> I cant do it in my Administrator
[04:36] <melow01> coz_, it has been, its just a pain signing up for an account at every single forum
[04:36] <invitado> its too big
[04:37] <coz_> invitado, and can you get back to the default user account?
[04:37] <invitado> account..YES!!
[04:37] <invitado> no
[04:37] <Administrator__> 有人讲中文吗
[04:37] <coz_> melow01,  yes it is ,,,however ...once done it is likely "forever" :)
[04:37] <invitado> iF I GO BACK TO THE DEFAULT ACCOUNT, WHERE I AM ROOT, I CANT OPEN xCHAT
[04:37] <coz_> invitado,  i am confused
[04:37] <invitado> oops sorry for CAPS
[04:37] <melow01> coz_, true
[04:38] <coz_> invitado,  wait ...when you installed ubuntu you put in your username and password  ....yes?
[04:38] <fivetwentysix> How do I enable ubuntu to accept remote connections?
[04:38] <invitado> I am in another account, as a guest. In this account, everything is alittle bit smaller
[04:38] <cashar> hello I setup an ldap server and phpldapadmin and everything runs the way is expected but how can I change the server password?
[04:38] <fivetwentysix> i've already added bind [server ip]
[04:38] <fivetwentysix> in /etc/mysql/my.conf
[04:38] <invitado> In the account where i am root, everything is too big, and cant acces Xchat, or other stuff
[04:38] <coz_> invitado,  ok and when you reboot and log in with the origianl user account....can you get onto the desktop?
[04:38] <noisewaterphd> cashar: the password to what server?
[04:38] <invitado> yes
[04:39] <invitado> coz_: tell me what to do there
[04:39] <cashar> noisewaterphd: ldap server
[04:39] <noisewaterphd> cashar: the server itself, the ldap server, the mysql server?
[04:39] <invitado> coz_: Do you want to see a log or something?
[04:39] <coz_> invitado,   ok.... open a terminal ...type    sudo nvidia-settings   then click the  "X Server Display Configuration"  section...there you should she a graphic representation of your monitor
[04:39] <scott_ino> invitado, you can't login as root as it randomizes the pw on ubuntu in theory.. so what do you mean by that
[04:40] <dougb> does anyone know how to capture the output audio and input audio at the same time in ubuntu?
[04:40] <coz_> invitado,  then click the "Resoluton" pull down and choose the resolution you want   then click the  "Save to X Configureation File"  then reboot
[04:40] <scott_ino> dougb, you just warped my brain with that question
[04:40] <ubuntu> ?
[04:40] <cashar> noisewaterphd: the ldap server itself
[04:40] <invitado> It does not work
[04:40] <invitado> there a are only 2 optio
[04:40] <coz_> invitado,  also click the "Apply" button before writing to x config  to test if that is what you want
[04:41] <noisewaterphd> cashar: I think the ldap admin passwd is in /etc/ldap or something like that
[04:41] <coz_> invitado,  what are the 2 options
[04:41] <Emanon> fivetwentysix: they dont like ubuntu tweak but it has an option to turn on remote desktop as a single checkbox just to let you know
[04:41] <invitado> 620x and 320 x
[04:41] <dougb> say i'm talking to someone on skype, i can either record what i'm saying or i can record what they are saying through recordmydesktop and pulseaudio, but i want to record both sides of the conversation
[04:41] <noisewaterphd> cashar: but I haven't used ldap in ages, google.com probably knows
[04:41] <invitado> And when i choose that, everything getes TOO giant
[04:41] <coz_> invitado,  ok  2 things...first open system/administration/hardware drivers
[04:41] <systm> so.., is dwm on apt-get
[04:41] <coz_> invitado,   see if the  nvidia_current driver is the one installed
[04:42] <cashar> noisewaterphd: is giving me a lot of things but that, thanks though
[04:42] <invitado> You know what? you gave an idea!
[04:42] <coz_> systm,  mm   try   sudo apt-get install dwm  to test
[04:42] <coz_> systm,  or open synaptic package manager  ...hit "Search"  type in    dwm
[04:42] <invitado> Why dont i just downloaded from Ubuntu Software Center?
[04:42] <scott_ino> systm, do sudo apt-cache search dwm
[04:42] <coz_> invitado,  I would check hardware drivers first
[04:43] <ipv5> howdy
[04:43] <invitado> there is no administration
[04:43] <invitado> not even a .administration
[04:44] <invitado> If i go to my other account, i wont be able to "talk" to you anymore
[04:44] <systm> ok, i did the minimal install.. with just xorg, whats the keyswitch to open a new xterm
[04:44] <Administrator__> this iRC is very hot
[04:44] <invitado> But ok, i ´ll go and see if i have the current drivers
[04:45] <scott_ino> invitado, account shouldn't matter... sorry im trying to catch up as to your issue so that i may be of assistance
[04:45] <systm> brb going to term
[04:45] <invitado> Yes, driver is current
[04:46] <gartral> hey guys, im on 10.04.1 and i keep getting [5817:5817:86039833568:ERROR:chrome/browser/process_singleton_linux.cc(304)] Failed to extract pid from path: /home/gareth/.config/google-chrome/SingletonLock
[04:46] <gartral> when trying to run google-chrome.. this just started happening todaye
[04:46] <invitado> I thought you where talking about those foldres in the system
[04:47] <invitado> but yeah, i have the current driver
[04:47] <evanthebeast> question: i downloaded the latest version of chromium and it came as a .zip file, i'm not sure what to do after I extracted it
[04:47] <gartral> and firefox give Bus Error and quits
[04:47] <invitado> scott_ino: do you know how to read a log?
[04:47] <xangua> evanthebeast: chromium is aviable in lucid repository
[04:47] <ipv5> this is really weird. i restarted clamav and it complains that the virus db is timestamped in the future. So I run 'date' and sure enough I'm 7 hours behind current time. So I run ntpdate and then date again to check, and it's fixed. So I restart clamav again, but I get the same message.  I've done this a few times just to...
[04:47] <ipv5> ...make sure I'm not nuts...but every time I restart clamav it runs my clock back 7 hours...anybody know what's going on?
[04:47] <evanthebeast> it's version 5 though, and i have that, the latest version is 7
[04:47] <invitado> If you tell me where it is you could read it and then do a diagnosis
[04:47] <evanthebeast> do i need to update my repository?
[04:47] <systm> ok.. so what were the choices for installing dwm
[04:48] <xangua> gartral: better try chromium, it's open source ;)
[04:48] <evanthebeast> chromium is fast as shit btw
[04:48] <gartral> xangua: i cant install anything due to Bus Errors
[04:48] <Emanon> gartral: try srware iron no install needed
[04:48] <R0b0t1> Hello. I am trying to build tiemu, as it will not install properly in synaptic. It requires Qt >= 3.0.2, I have installed Qt4, however, the ./configure script still does not complete correctly. What might be wrong?
[04:48] <scott_ino> evanthebeast, what do you mean you downloaded a .zip file? you need to install that via apt, synaptic, etc..
[04:48] <Emanon> just extract and run the executable
[04:48] <xangua> evanthebeast: the latest development and unstable version is 7, if you want it just add the 'chromium daily build ppa' under your own risk
[04:49] <gartral> Emanon: what?
[04:49] <invitado> ...
[04:49] <evanthebeast> ah ok, I just figured if they were on 7, 5 was a little out of date
[04:49] <scott_ino> invitado, can you refresh me as to "how you originially installed the driver, was it working before etc.."
[04:49] <evanthebeast> i'll find the repository on their website i need to add
[04:50] <invitado> Well, its been like this for months, everytime i try to do something i do not know, well, the system mess up
[04:50] <Emanon> gartral: iron is a security enhanced version of chromium from srware
[04:50] <scott_ino> evanthebeast, previously I used their PPA with success
[04:50] <Emanon> doesnt send tracking info and such
[04:50] <quietone> how do I get rid of the download icon (don't know how it got there either)? it is next to wireless icon.
[04:50] <dlp211> trying to install 10.04 server edition...keep getting ureadahead-other main process terminated with status 4...and then it hangs there
[04:51] <Emanon> and it comes as a tar.gz if memory serves
[04:51] <Emanon> just extract and run no installation needed
[04:51] <invitado> scott_ino: It is the built in audio, i was downloading this driver, or actually, just copy/paste from a website, installing ALSA and all of a sudden, the system restarted
[04:51] <evanthebeast> scott_ino: so it's pretty stable? I would assume there has been a stable release between 5 and 7 and i'll go with that if this is pretty crash-prone
[04:51] <scott_ino> invitado, so which drivers did you have or try to install from the start?
[04:51] <invitado> scott_ino: IAnd when it restarted, the monitor resolution was too BIG, i cant' even fix it in the Nvidia x Server
[04:52] <Emanon> and should you choose you can move it into a system directory like /usr/bin or something and link to it as the default browser, thats what i do
[04:52] <gartral> emanon well i cant op[en any browsers to get a link.. so could you help me fix whats wrong?
[04:52] <invitado> scott_ino: Some realtek drivers
[04:52] <etherealite> using aptitude i get the following error "the following signatures were invalid: NODATA 1 NODATA 2" I cant run aptitude update. please help.
[04:52] <Emanon> at the risk of evangelizing its awesome
[04:52] <invitado> scott_ino: Do you know how to read a log?
[04:52] <quietone> left click brings up a download window and right click has one option "show downloads".  I want it gone....
[04:52] <Emanon> sec let me scrol up to your original post
[04:52] <invitado> scott_ino: If you tell me how, i can show you my system log
[04:52] <dlp211> trying to install 10.04 server edition...keep getting ureadahead-other main process terminated with status 4...and then it hangs there (post install)
[04:52] <gartral> when trying to run google-chrome.. this just started happening today
[04:53] <gartral> hey guys, im on 10.04.1 and i keep getting [5817:5817:86039833568:ERROR:chrome/browser/process_singleton_linux.cc(304)] Failed to extract pid from path: /home/gareth/.config/google-chrome/SingletonLock
[04:53] <scott_ino> evanthebeast, I'd stick with whatever version is in the usual ubuntu repos, not PPA but yes, it was normally ok
[04:53] <invitado> this is so annoying
[04:53] <scott_ino> invitado, i thought this was a graphics issue
[04:53] <invitado> not knowing stuff
[04:53] <scott_ino> was it not?
[04:53] <gartral> and firefox is throwing a wierd "Bus error" message
[04:53] <invitado> Well, yes, now it is
[04:53] <Emanon> oh i just scrolled up hehe
[04:53] <invitado> scott_ino: So, do you know how to fix it?
[04:54] <dlp211> is there a server specific chat room?
[04:54] <evanthebeast> scott_ino: thanks for the help, I'll probably juts go with the PPA though since I was having trouble running extensions with 5. quick question: what is the best/most popular irc client on linux?
[04:54] <scott_ino> evanthebeast, xchat is what I use, there are others
[04:54] <etherealite> using aptitude i get the following error "the following signatures were invalid: NODATA 1 NODATA 2" I cant run aptitude update. please help.
[04:54] <Emanon> and can you do a fresh install of chrome (like complete remove in synaptic and reinstall)?
[04:54] <invitado> I guess not
[04:55] <Emanon> sorry forgot to address that to gartral
[04:55] <scott_ino> invitado, so your issue is your graphics driver... shouldn't have anything to do with other updates
[04:55] <gartral> Emanon: i cant change any packages, apt-get and synaptic are throwing the same cryptic "Bus error" message as firefox
[04:55] <invitado> scott_ino: Yes, graphic
[04:55] <evanthebeast> also where should i go for general reading about how ubuntu/linux is set up? I literally just installed 2 days ago and have been customizing my system pretty much nonstop. I'm fairly computer competent but i would like to learn more
[04:55] <Emanon> ok well we just went past my mediocre knowledge hope someone else knows how to help you
[04:56] <R0b0t1> Hello. I am trying to build tiemu, as it will not install properly in synaptic. It requires Qt >= 3.0.2, I have installed Qt4, however, the ./configure script still does not complete correctly. What might be wrong?
[04:57] <scott_ino> invitado, can you go system/administration/hardware drivers and tell me what you have in there regarding your nvidia drivers
[04:57] <scott_ino> evanthebeast, lots of reading on various google sites
[04:57] <Emanon> evanthebeast: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-manual
[04:57] <evanthebeast> thats what i've been doing, learning a lot by just trying to figure out whatever problems i have with configuring stuff
[04:58] <scott_ino> evanthebeast, and tinkering is a good way to learn obviously. Lots has changed in linux throughou the years in order to make things easier for most end users. But... I'd learn the various components first how it's organized etc...
[04:58] <evanthebeast> thanks for the link emanon
[04:58] <evanthebeast> any more specific sites to recommend?
[04:59] <Emanon> np my google fu is moderate hehe
[04:59] <Emanon> uh let me check
[04:59] <cromag> is it possible to mount an EXT4 partition  on a linuxbox on a local network without NFS ?
[04:59] <invitado> scott_ino: I only have 2 choices 640x480 and 320x240
[04:59] <cromag> just by mount ip:folder mountpoint ?
[04:59] <scott_ino> invitado, that's not the right area: System/administration/hardware drivers
[05:00] <jkazana> cromag: sshfs
[05:00] <Emanon> evanthebeast: http://www.linuxnewbieguide.org/ for non-ubuntu specific
[05:01] <invitado> scott_ino: Well, i have the current one
[05:01] <invitado> scott_ino: The recommended
[05:01] <popkorn_> G'nite all Thanks
[05:02] <evanthebeast> very much appreciate it guys, seeya later
[05:02] <cromag> jkazana: thanks, i left important stuff out, is it possible with a ubuntu out of the box installation ?
[05:02] <scott_ino> invitado, which is what
[05:02] <cromag> rephreased question
[05:02] <invitado> scott_ino: It does not said
[05:02] <invitado> scott_ino: It just says that it has the current one
[05:03] <scott_ino> it should at least say what version give a number etc...
[05:03] <R0b0t1> I have a program that requires KDE. How might I install KDE but not all the programs that go with it?
[05:04] <Emanon> install the program and let it handle its own dependencies?
[05:04] <scott_ino> invitado, they may have changed it... i don't have nvidia anymore so give me one sec
[05:04] <scott_ino> R0b0t1, should be fine it will just get the libraries for you
[05:05] <R0b0t1> scott_ino: Would you know what they are called?
[05:05] <R0b0t1> I keep seeing these ones called "kdebase" and etc, but those include the programs.
[05:05] <scott_ino> R0b0t1, what app are you instaling
[05:05] <R0b0t1> tiemu
[05:05] <freddy_dude> is there a good alarm software for linux
[05:05] <freddy_dude> just loud and annoying
[05:05] <invitado> https://dl.dropbox.com/u/9041618/Nvidia.png
[05:05] <R0b0t1> Can't be f'ed to mess with the configure script... the windowing system to use is not in the configure help.
[05:06] <R0b0t1> And the package won't install to dependency problems.
[05:06] <R0b0t1> :3
[05:06] <invitado> scott_ino: can you read spanish?
[05:06] <scott_ino> R0b0t1, is there a reason why you can't install it via synaptic?
[05:06] <scott_ino> invitado, no sorry
[05:06] <scott_ino> :(
[05:06] <R0b0t1> scott_ino: Yeah, it says something like "needs package X but won't install"
[05:06] <invitado> scott_ino: Well, you dont have to, have a look at the pic
[05:06] <invitado> https://dl.dropbox.com/u/9041618/Nvidia.png
[05:06] <R0b0t1> So I go >.> and just try to go build it.
[05:06] <scott_ino> invitado, k one sec
[05:07] <Emanon> try enabling the extra repositories in the source manager then updating in synaptic
[05:07] <scott_ino> R0b0t1, what is the full error
[05:07] <Emanon> then try the install again
[05:07] <scott_ino> invitado, ok I see... what graphics card do you have
[05:08] <invitado> Nvidia Quadro FX 580
[05:08] <scott_ino> invitado, perhaps there's an issue with that drive and your card and i'll check and see
[05:08] <R0b0t1> scott_ino: That _is_ the full error. It pops up in a dialog box. "Package tiemu cannot be installed: \n Requires package X but won't install ... [repeat 5]"
[05:08] <amstan> ubottu: #help
[05:08] <Emanon> freddy_dude: i think there is a time management program with an alarm in evolution (the mail/calandar app?
[05:08] <amstan> what software is ubottu using again?
[05:08] <scott_ino> invitado, did you just start having this problem?
[05:08] <R0b0t1> scott_ino: You want which packaged specifically?
[05:09] <R0b0t1> Honestly I think it'd be easier to just find out what the configure script's switch is or install KDE, but *shrug*
[05:09] <scott_ino> R0b0t1, what the error said when trying to install via synaptic or from apt-get
[05:09] <invitado> scott_ino: You see scott, the thing is, everything was workin fine, except when i copy pasted everythig from that webpage, i think it was some kind of badware
[05:09] <invitado> I was installing ALSA, from Gusty
[05:09] <invitado> Gusty version
[05:10] <invitado> Maybe it dowgraded?
[05:10] <Gnea> !lts
[05:10] <invitado> i have 10.04
[05:10] <scott_ino> invitado, are you using ubuntu 10.04 if so why would you install also from gusty
[05:10] <R0b0t1> scott_ino: I used the GUI version. "tiemu: \n Depends: libticables3 but it is not going to be installed \n Depends libticalcs4 but it is not going to be installed \n Depends libtifiles0 but it is not going to be installed."
[05:10] <scott_ino> R0b0t1, k give me one sec
[05:10] <scott_ino> working lots of stuff here
[05:11] <R0b0t1> Nah it's k
[05:11] <invitado> Well, here is the weird part. In 8.04, my eth0 works fine, in 10.04 etho does not detect my internet cable. and have no sound either
[05:11] <invitado> BUT!!
[05:11] <invitado> that was before the power surge problem
[05:11] <Emanon> oh btw apt-get doesnt work over tor network any ideas why?
[05:12] <scott_ino> invitado, I just don't see how even changing alsa would affect your graphics
[05:12] <invitado> I mean.... after the problem, 10.04 did not detected my cable, nor my built in sound.
[05:12] <ITSCOTTER> how do you register you name for xchat
[05:12] <jkazana> cromag: [i just crashed/rebooted] re: sshfs just do a aptitude install sshfs   to install
[05:12] <invitado> scott_ino: Well, it is a bug
[05:12] <R0b0t1> scott_ino: Meh, installed the packages and it worked.
[05:12] <invitado> scott_ino: Second time
[05:13] <scott_ino> R0b0t1, yeah i mean if you did kde-base etc... or forced the rest of the packages coolness
[05:13] <invitado> scott_ino: BUT, i do not want to re install for the 27th time... i know there i s gotta be a fix
[05:13] <invitado> i just know
[05:14] <frobisher> !why
[05:14] <scott_ino> invitado, have you tried removing the driver from hardware drivers, which would then use the open source NV driver
[05:14] <scott_ino> at least the your scren wouldn't be big
[05:14] <scott_ino> and you coul diagnose from there
[05:16]  * scott_ino must go now, bye all
[05:16] <frobisher> ITSCOOTER   http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup
[05:16] <invitado> I cant even change the driver
[05:17] <invitado> The apply button does not shows, i cant even resize it
[05:17] <invitado> I hope they fix this kind of bugs in 10.10
[05:17] <invitado> They are really annoying
[05:18] <invitado> pointless....
[05:18] <invitado> I am going to sleep
[05:18] <ITSCOTTER> frobisher: and i type the command in xchat?
[05:18] <invitado> maybe i'll re install tomorrow
[05:18] <invitado> AGAIN

[05:21] <dan86> instead of having to type "./" everytime
[05:21] <frobisher> ITSCOOTER it will give you instructions,and an e-mail.Then you type it in to x-chat
[05:21] <|Sacred|> if you're looking to run a script alot/easily

[05:21] <glm> zhongguo
[05:21] <neobos> ~ name of this symbl

[05:23] <dan86> /home/dan/Downloads/android-sdk-linux_86/tools/adb
[05:23] <dan86> so i don't have to type ./adb
[05:23] <SpaceGhostC2C> What is this partial upgrade I'm seeing?
[05:23] <|Sacred|> just put adb in /bin directory
[05:23] <SpaceGhostC2C> |Sacred|: that's not right.
[05:23] <|Sacred|> then you can just use adb in terminal
[05:23] <|Sacred|> ?
[05:23] <|Sacred|> how so
[05:23] <SpaceGhostC2C> |Sacred|: it's /usr/local/bin/
[05:23] <|Sacred|> weird, I put mine in /bin
[05:23] <SpaceGhostC2C> |Sacred|: you're doing it wrong.
[05:23] <Clappy> So, anyone here had any luck getting Mafia 2 running at a decent speed in WINE?
[05:24] <SpaceGhostC2C> |Sacred|: because they can get removed. If you put them in the other folder they're not ever removed.
[05:24] <dan86> SpaceGhostC2C for my application would it be better to add a path
[05:24] <dan86> or copy the file into /usr/local/bin
[05:24] <SpaceGhostC2C> dan86: what's the logic?
[05:24] <|Sacred|> ahh ok, good to know...never had an issue
[05:24] <SpaceGhostC2C> |Sacred|: It's just future proofing.
[05:24] <dan86> i don't want to have to type "./adb" rather simply adb
[05:24] <jkazana> dan86: it's prob easier for you to just do what someone else said and put it in /usr/local/bin
[05:24] <|Sacred|> understood
[05:24] <SpaceGhostC2C> dan86: try using a symlink.
[05:24] <dan86> SpaceGhostC2C first week on ubuntu =/
[05:24] <dan86> no comprende symlink
[05:25] <dan86> but i'm willing to learn =)
[05:25] <neobos> how to trace an ip address
[05:25] <Loshki> dan86: It's done that way delibertately, so you don't inadvertently execute the wrong executable. That said, there is a way....
[05:25] <SpaceGhostC2C> dan86: sudo ln -s ~/Downloads/android-sdk-linux_86/tools/adb /usr/local/bin
[05:25] <Administrator__> ?
[05:25] <Loshki> !cn | Administrator__
[05:25] <SpaceGhostC2C> dan86: a symlink is like a shortcut of sorts. If you don't mind learning from man pages try man ln, or info ln
[05:26] <dan86> thanks SpaceGhostC2C to google instant search i go!
[05:26] <maco> dan86: i have a blog post on it
[05:26] <SpaceGhostC2C> dan86: maco does!
[05:26] <Licuadora> I JUST CAN'T GIVE UP!!
[05:26] <maco> dan86: http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com/2009/11/links.html
[05:27] <Loshki> maco: where can I find your blog?
[05:27] <Licuadora> come on guys, i know you know how!!
[05:27] <dan86> thank you maco
[05:27] <Badger32d> hey - for adb with no ./ try export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/android-sdk/tools
[05:27] <SpaceGhostC2C> Badger32d: I'd op for the symlink usually.
[05:27] <samuel2010> ?
[05:28] <samuel2010> Does anyone know if there is any software that i can add subtitles to a video but not as a file ??
[05:28] <Licuadora> is there a way to RESET Ubuntu?
[05:28] <SpaceGhostC2C> maco: Do you know anything about any new updates? I got a silly "Needs to partial upgrade" thing. :(
[05:28] <SpaceGhostC2C> Licuadora: in what sense?
[05:28] <maco> SpaceGhostC2C: im not on lucid, but usually that means something is half-built and if you wait til tomorrow itll be done
[05:29] <SpaceGhostC2C> maco: Oh, okay. Thanks. I was wondering.
[05:29] <samuel2010> Anyone know anything about video editing?
[05:29] <Licuadora> SpaceGhostC2C: Well, my monitor resolution got too BIG, when i restarted it was like that, i cant even change it in the "nvidia x server settings"!
[05:29] <Licuadora> I have the current driver
[05:30] <SpaceGhostC2C> Licuadora: too big as in the resolution was too low? 600x800 or too high like 1280x1024?
[05:30] <Licuadora> It was when i was doing some copy/paste from a website, tryin to install ALSA, (Gusty version) even though i have 10.04
[05:30] <Loshki> samuel2010: have a look at avidemux first. If that won't do it for you, you'll need to check out transcode, mencoder or ffmpeg.  Does Pulse not work?
[05:31] <frobisher> http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup
[05:31] <Licuadora> SpaceGhostC2C: tOO BIg like everything is too big, i do not know about resolutions, i have only 2 options in the settings, 620x480 and 320x280
[05:32] <maco> Licuadora: yikes!
[05:32] <maco> !resolution | Licuadora
[05:32] <maco> Licuadora: you need a higher resolution. something with 4 digits on each side of the x
[05:32] <neobos> any body help me to trace ip address
[05:32] <SpaceGhostC2C> Licuadora: remove the driver or increase resolution size.
[05:33] <SpaceGhostC2C> neobos: what do you want to accomplish?
[05:33] <Loshki> samuel2010: yes, you are talking about hard-coded subtitles, i.e. subs that are burnt into the video instead of being kept in a separate file. People avoid hard-coded subtitles because they can't be turned off.
[05:34] <samuel2010> Loshki,   i know  but i want them on the video.  i want them hard-coded ones.
[05:34] <Loshki> samuel2010: do you plan to burn the result to a dvd so that it plays on a dvd player?
[05:35] <samuel2010> Loshki,  no .  its a karaoke file.
[05:35] <Licuadora> maco: I did what you said, and it didnt worked
[05:35] <samuel2010> Loshki,  a karaoke song hehe
[05:35] <SpaceGhostC2C> Licuadora: did you try mine?
[05:35] <Licuadora> No
[05:35] <Licuadora> The system restarted
[05:35] <samuel2010> Loshki,  so it needs to be on the video  otherwise its pointless.
[05:35] <SpaceGhostC2C> Licuadora: scroll up and try it, then restart and see if it helps.
[05:35] <SpaceGhostC2C> Licuadora: try to set the resolution after rebooting too.
[05:36] <collimic> I am looking for someone to help me with a problem in iptables. I am running ubuntu 8.1 with iptables. I am tring to block an ip address inside my network from reaching the outside world. Ubuntu 8.10 is what I am using as my router. the modem plugges into eth0 and the rest of my network plugs into eht1 or eth4 depending on what it is but I need to block an ip address from reaching the outside world at all.
[05:36] <Loshki> samuel2010: so what format will the finak karaoke be in?  Let me know if you'd like help with any of my approaches. I hope it works out well. :)
[05:39] <Badger32d> alright, weird problem here with man pages...
[05:39] <SpaceGhostC2C> Badger32d: like?
[05:39] <Badger32d> when I run man women - I get a segmentation fault....
[05:39] <Badger32d> ;)
[05:39] <SpaceGhostC2C> ah ha.
[05:41] <samuel2010> Loshki,   any ideas?
[05:42] <Loshki> samuel2010: I'm running avidemux now for you to see if it will work. Do you already have some video, or do you just have music (mp3?) and lyrics (text?)
[05:42] <jkazana> samuel2010: sounds like something that should be done in a video editor software (F**al C*t P*r) and render the titles right in. I know it's not using linux but i don't edit movies in Ubuntu
[05:42] <SpaceGhostC2C> Badger32d: Along the same lines, I'm pleasantly surprised to see that man make cookie works, although unexpectedly. :)
[05:43] <samuel2010> i have the video and i have the lyrics  they are already set out in gnome subtitle editor.  Loshki
[05:43] <SpaceGhostC2C> jkazana: you don't need to obfuscate Final Cut Pro.
[05:43] <samuel2010> jkazana,  i dont have windows.     im 100% ubuntu
[05:43] <samuel2010> jkazana,   Gloat~ haha
[05:43] <wilmer> My 10.04 UNR boots to a CLI.  startx and sudo service gdm start does not help.  How do I make the OS use failsafe Vesa driver?
[05:43] <SpaceGhostC2C> samuel2010: what are you trying?
[05:43] <gcd> Without windows, how does one get cool air into the house? ;)
[05:43] <Badger32d> ahh, so it does spaceghost, so it does
[05:43] <SpaceGhostC2C> wilmer: in your xorg.conf.
[05:44] <SpaceGhostC2C> Badger32d: It gave me hope for mankind. *rimshot*
[05:44] <wilmer> SpaceGhostC2C, I dont have one in /etc/X11
[05:44] <spaceghost_> hey that's my name
[05:44] <SpaceGhostC2C> gcd: by opening the doors.
[05:44] <wilmer> SpaceGhostC2C, can I make the changes in the .failsafe version?
[05:44] <samuel2010> SpaceGhostC2C,   trying to hard-code (burn) lyrics onto a video for a karaoke song.   but so far they will only go on as subtitles. but i want them to be apart of the actual video itself.  what software does this?
[05:44] <SpaceGhostC2C> spaceghost_: mine too!
[05:45] <collimic> so I guess I did not ask the right question ir am not in the right room tonight. Have to just love IRC.
[05:45] <SpaceGhostC2C> samuel2010: either video software or maybe a cli tool?
[05:45] <Licuadora> This is ridiculos
[05:45] <Licuadora> It did int worked!!
[05:45] <SpaceGhostC2C> ubottu: tell collimic about patience
[05:45] <Licuadora> CAN someone here read a log?!
[05:45] <samuel2010> SpaceGhostC2C,   but what software  there is so much available i dont know what ones do what!!! hahaha  i never did this before.
[05:45] <SpaceGhostC2C> Licuadora: pastebin. And try to be nicer, we're all volunteers.
[05:46] <jkazana> samuel2010: Final Cut Pro is Mac OS.
[05:46] <SpaceGhostC2C> jkazana: no, really?....
[05:46] <Licuadora> Is there an expert volenteer here?
[05:46] <samuel2010> jkazana,  i dont use mac os on my macbook   like i said its 100% ubuntu.
[05:46] <SpaceGhostC2C> Licuadora: not really, no.
[05:46] <Licuadora> DAMN!!
[05:46] <samuel2010> jkazana, and i have no intention using mac or windows.
[05:46] <seidos> SpaceGhostC2C, +1
[05:46] <SpaceGhostC2C> seidos: for?
[05:46] <Izinucs> Licuadora: we're all experts in one way or antoher
[05:47] <SpaceGhostC2C> Izinucs: Nice philosophical tidbit for the evening.
[05:47] <seidos> SpaceGhostC2C, "not really, no"
[05:47] <collimic> No problem I just have a bad habit of getting into the wrong room and this IRC has just never been for me but this is where all the great help hangs out. Just wish I new more and could help more.
[05:47] <Emanon> anyone know how to make evolution stay up in the communications drop down in the system tray like pidgin gwibbler and empathy do?
[05:47] <seidos> collimic, you and me both
[05:47] <Badger32d> OMG, I NEED UR HELPS NAO! mah kittehz have chewed up my ethernets! what do I doo!?
[05:47] <Izinucs> SpaceGhostC2C: I knew someone would appriciate it :)
[05:47] <IdleOne> Badger32d: drop the caps and get new internets
[05:47] <SpaceGhostC2C> Badger32d: you need to hide all your cheeseburgers!
[05:48] <samuel2010> Badger32d,   get wifi ?
[05:48] <neobos> SpaceGhostc2c; trying to learn remote system connection
[05:48] <Badger32d> nooooo!
[05:48] <Badger32d> :D
[05:48] <Emanon> Badger32d: they have a howto at icanhascheesburger
[05:48] <SpaceGhostC2C> neobos: and den?
[05:48] <Izinucs> Badger32d: switch to interwebs
[05:48] <SpaceGhostC2C> samuel2010: how does that even make sense?
[05:48] <Badger32d> oh, all this time I've been using a series of tubes. must be old school or something
[05:48] <Emanon> yea the new interwebz 2.0 works better
[05:49] <samuel2010> SpaceGhostC2C,   how does what even make sense?
[05:49] <neobos> SpaceGhost;and then what i said i want to learn  remote system
[05:49] <patogen> Does anybody know if the 'Mobile Mouse 4000' from microsoft will work in linux?
[05:49] <SpaceGhostC2C> collimic: that's easy all you have to do is learn more.
[05:49] <SpaceGhostC2C> samuel2010: how does that even make sense?
[05:49] <SpaceGhostC2C> patogen: plug it in and try?
[05:49] <Emanon> i would imagine so patogen
[05:49] <popkorn_> in document viewer, can i bookmark?
[05:49] <samuel2010> SpaceGhostC2C,   again,  how does what even make sense????? i dont know what ur talking about
[05:49] <patogen> SpaceGhostC2C: I haven't bought it yet, I don't want to buy if it doesn't work
[05:50] <Emanon> if it has extra buttons it might be a lil hit or miss as to whether they work
[05:50] <Blue1away> patogen: search here:  http://appdb.winehq.org/
[05:50] <popkorn_> ubuntu 10.04
[05:50] <SpaceGhostC2C> patogen: google the product name with the word Ubuntu on the end.
[05:50] <patogen> Emanon: I would figure it should work, but I'm not sure
[05:50] <Emanon> i know my dinovo edge keyboard has a few of the special keys that dont work
[05:50] <patogen> SpaceGhostC2C: Have tried that, failed to work
[05:50] <Emanon> like the hotkeys
[05:50] <Emanon> but all the main stuff works
[05:50] <Emanon> thats generally been my experience with periphreals
[05:50] <SpaceGhostC2C> patogen: then maybe it's just not tested. If you can return it if it doesnt' work or sell it, then get it. Your choice.
[05:50] <Emanon> the regular stuff almost always works but the added functions are hit or miss
[05:51] <SpaceGhostC2C> Usually.
[05:51] <samuel2010> everything i have ever  plugged into ubuntu works. i never had any problems with anything.
[05:51] <Emanon> just my exp but logitech stuff seems to be a lil better about not openly opposing systems they dont openly support
[05:51] <Blue1away> cirque works well, just they don't build quality merchandise
[05:52] <Licuador> Badger32d: Ok it didnt worked....
[05:52] <Licuador> AH
[05:52] <Emanon> well im not thrilled how 10.04 handles bluetooth keyboards (i have to sync it occasionally with a wireless mouse) but otherwise i have been pretty lucky with periphreal devices too
[05:52] <Loshki> samuel2010: are you still there?
[05:52] <samuel2010> Loshki,   yeah
[05:52] <samuel2010> Loshki,  im here
[05:53] <Loshki> samuel2010: I just opened a video file in avidemux and added hard-coded subs to it. Wanna try it yourself?
[05:53] <samuel2010> avidemux?
[05:53] <samuel2010> ok
[05:53] <SpaceGhostC2C> Emanon: I'm not into wireless keyboards. Mice are different, but if you're willing to try them, go for it.
[05:53] <Emanon> btw i recommend ubuntu to all my customers who dont have hardware or software that explicitly excludes using ubuntu yet hehe
[05:54] <Emanon> yea my keyboard is bluetooth
[05:54] <samuel2010> Loshki,  hehe  do i need to re do the subtitles again  or can i just use the subtitle file do u know???
[05:54] <Emanon> and when i switch over to the live disk for porn i have to resync it
[05:54] <Loshki> samuel2010: what format is the subtitle file in (srt format is the easiest)
[05:54] <samuel2010> emanon  ~ please.... this is a family room!!
[05:55] <IdleOne> !ot
[05:55] <FalseLobster> hello
[05:55] <SpaceGhostC2C> Emanon: for porn? Do you need to say that? It's sort of unnecessary.
[05:55] <samuel2010> Loshki,  yeah   srt    but they are in hebrew~~   u think R-L will be ok?  should be right? hehe
[05:55] <SpaceGhostC2C> IdleOne: what offtopicness was there? I missed it? I'm jealous.
[05:55] <Emanon> ok "when i switch os's for various reasons i have to resync the keyboard for ubuntu"
[05:55] <FalseLobster> Can someone help me?  I need to modify a file in a .deb package
[05:55] <IdleOne> spaceghost_: for starters your conversation with Emanon
[05:55] <SpaceGhostC2C> Emanon: hm,file a bug report if you'd like.
[05:55] <IdleOne> SpaceGhostC2C: ^^
[05:56] <SpaceGhostC2C> IdleOne: it's about ubuntu bro.
[05:56] <ridin> SpaceGhostC2C: i hope that's not taken for 'ubuntu is freedom'
[05:56] <SpaceGhostC2C> IdleOne: like directly.
[05:56] <SpaceGhostC2C> ridin: I don't even know what you're talking about, sorry.
[05:56] <FalseLobster> I can only open this file as read only
[05:56] <FalseLobster> even after changing permissions
[05:57] <Emanon> u try opening it as root?
[05:57] <SpaceGhostC2C> FalseLobster: which file and what are the permissions on it? Have you tried editing as root?
[05:57] <SpaceGhostC2C> Emanon: try taking the extra two keystrokes to spell 'you' please.
[05:57] <fivetwentysix> Can anyone take a look at my problem? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3673878/my-rails-3-site-wont-start-on-ubuntu-apache2-passenger
[05:57] <samuel2010> Loshki, how did u add them on?
[05:57] <Loshki> samuel2010: interesting, I've never even seen an R-to-L subtitle file before. I have no idea if it'll work, but we can try it...
[05:57] <ridin> SpaceGhostC2C: Emanon, inappropriate images, 'ubuntu is freedom', it's a bad joke
[05:57] <samuel2010> Loshki,   ok.   where did u go to add the subs?
[05:57] <Emanon> i wouldnt even spell your names right if not for autocomplete
[05:58] <wilmer>  I need to make the OS use failsafe Vesa driver.  Can I do this in xorg.conf.failsafe or do I need to generate/create/copy xorg.conf.  If so how? I do not have one by default.
[05:58] <Loshki> samuel2010: start avidemux and open the video file...
[05:58] <t3cki3> hey poeple.. i need help with samba on my ubuntu machine. is this the right place or do i need to go to the samba room ?? please let me know... thanks in advance
[05:58] <samuel2010> Loshki,  ok
[05:58] <Emanon> what help t3cki3
[05:58] <pryorda> hey guys quick question
[05:58] <pryorda> i just implemented raid on my controller
[05:58] <Emanon> !ask
[05:58] <pryorda> raid 1
[05:59] <Emanon> k
[05:59] <Loshki> samuel2010: now configure the video section. Choose the first choice i.e. mpeg4-asp (lavc) then hit 'filters'
[05:59] <pryorda> and both hdds are showing up
[05:59] <pryorda> is there some other device im looking for under dmesg
[05:59] <Emanon> try forming the raid with the partition manager instead of the built in bios tool
[05:59] <t3cki3> @Emanon: M using SWAT to share samba on my ubuntu, so i have to set it up, but can't seem to figure it out
[05:59] <SpaceGhostC2C> t3cki3: maybe if you asked your question then we'd have enough information to tell you, otherwise try the actual channel.
[05:59] <Emanon> and the first raid device should be md0
[05:59] <chrowe> how do I boot into single user mode on a Lucid VirtualBox machine?
[06:00] <SpaceGhostC2C> t3cki3: what is SWAT and M?
[06:00] <pryorda> thats using sw raid
[06:00] <pryorda> and i really didnt want to do sw
[06:00] <Emanon> samba web adminstration tool
[06:00] <SpaceGhostC2C> Emanon: oh hm.
[06:00] <t3cki3> @SpaceGhostC2C:  m = i'm ..hehe
[06:01] <samuel2010> Loshki,   ok .
[06:01] <SpaceGhostC2C> t3cki3: oh. You'd do yourself a favor to spend the extra two keystrokes to finish the word in English. :)
[06:01] <t3cki3> SWAT = Samba web administration tool
[06:01] <samuel2010> Loshki,   sorry took a while to find what u said haha
[06:01] <samuel2010> Loshki,   then vob subs?
[06:02] <t3cki3> @SpaceGhostC2C:  my bad... can any one help... ??? or guide me to the correct direction... appreciate it
[06:02] <Loshki> samuel2010: no, bottom entry: Subtitler (add srt/sub subtitles to the picture) then hit configure
[06:02] <SpaceGhostC2C> t3cki3: I don't know the tool you're referring to, I'm sorry.
[06:02] <Emanon> i know of it but dont have much exp with it
[06:02] <Loshki> samuel2010: sorry, I'm slow tonight too...
[06:03] <t3cki3> @SpaceGhostC2C:  what about samba in general...
[06:03] <SpaceGhostC2C> t3cki3: yeah. But then again, I don't think I've seen your question about samba, just about the administration tool.
[06:03] <t3cki3> @Emanon: thanks for the help.. appreciate it...
[06:03] <samuel2010> Loshki,   ok
[06:04] <SpaceGhostC2C> t3cki3: you know, if you highlight us you don't need the @, right?
[06:04] <Loshki> samuel2010: oops:  Subtitler (add srt/sub subtitles to the picture) then SELECT SUBTITLER IN LEFT HAND PANEL *THEN* hit configure
[06:04] <SpaceGhostC2C> :)
[06:04] <samuel2010> Loshki,  i hit configure  put the file in the language and so on
[06:04] <Emanon> though i do know you can do like forced sharing using the normal network folder if you know username and pw for the target box
[06:04] <pryorda> Emanon: is there a chance it would be sg1
[06:04] <pryorda> ?
[06:04] <t3cki3> @SpaceGhostC2C:  i'm trying to setup samba on ubuntu 10.04 with multiple users and multi folders
[06:04] <samuel2010> Loshki,   yep done
[06:04] <pryorda> you know what
[06:04] <pryorda> time to tias
[06:04] <Loshki> samuel2010: did you set the encoding for hebrew etc...
[06:05] <samuel2010> Loshki,  yeah
[06:05] <FalseLobster> So running nautilus as root doesn't automatically open files with root permissions... ?
[06:05] <Loshki> samuel2010: ok, go back to main panel, choose save, and save to a suitable filename e.g. test1.avi
[06:05] <SpaceGhostC2C> FalseLobster: are you going to say what you're trying to accomplish so we can help you, or are you just curious?
[06:06] <FalseLobster> I already did
[06:06] <Emanon> no pryorda raids are almost always md(something)
[06:06] <pryorda> even hardware?
[06:06] <Emanon> unless your using the bios in which case it could be anything since that presents it as a hardware drive
[06:06] <Emanon> so i guess it could be
[06:06] <FalseLobster> I'm trying to modify a file in an archive
[06:06] <samuel2010> ok
[06:06] <FalseLobster> it's .deb
[06:06] <pryorda> sg1 was unable to open so i dont think it was it
[06:06] <Emanon> id say check the size to make sure first
[06:06] <t3cki3>  i'm trying to setup samba on ubuntu 10.04 with multiple users and multi folders
[06:06] <FalseLobster> I just need to change 2 characters in the source of one file

[06:09] <samuel2010> thunderbird
[06:09] <Emanon> i prefer evolution just because its integrated
[06:09] <samuel2010> Loshki,   im still saving  hehe my computer is sooo slow!
[06:09] <samuel2010> hahaha
[06:09] <Emanon> but thunderbird would be it if it integrated with gnome properly
[06:09] <samuel2010> 90% done
[06:09] <samuel2010> loshki   nope  no subs
[06:09] <ir1844_> the only problem i have is that when i use evolution and i sent emails out it does not go out

[06:11] <samuel2010> should  be someting to do with the coding ~~
[06:11] <Loshki> samuel2010: best of luck. There are other programs, but none with a good gui....

[06:19] <mike9055> Ardour doesnt seem to think so, it wont run
[06:19] <Emanon> oh sucky dude sorry
[06:20] <FalseLobster> Okay, seriously
[06:20] <Emanon> FalseLobster: if it doesnt work when opened as root idk what to tell ya bud
[06:20] <FalseLobster> Do I really need to pull the old "Insult linux, get awesome tech support card" ?
[06:21] <FalseLobster> Emanon: Alright, well treat me like I'm clueless
[06:21] <Emanon> that only works in fanboi support channels dude

[06:21] <Emanon> ok alt f2
[06:21] <Emanon> that will open a run dialogue
[06:21] <FalseLobster> yea
[06:21] <pryorda> Emanon: i can not for the life of me find this damn controleler or raid array
[06:21] <Emanon> then type gksu <command here> and hit enter
[06:22] <Emanon> it will ask for ur password then open the stated program as root
[06:22]  * pryorda looks at chipset brb in a bit
[06:22] <t3cki3> thkx for all the help guys... sorry for the troubl
[06:22] <FalseLobster> I'm on a live cd
[06:22] <FalseLobster> does that make a difference?
[06:22] <FalseLobster> cause its still read only
[06:22] <Emanon> shoudnt
[06:22] <Emanon> gksu file-roller
[06:22] <FalseLobster> yea
[06:23] <FalseLobster> It's still read only
[06:23] <FalseLobster> Whyyyyyyyyyyyy
[06:23]  * FalseLobster sighs
[06:23] <FalseLobster> its been a long day
[06:23] <real1adam> hey Ubuntu community, I'm trying to get my AirPort Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 wireless card working on my iMac with Ubuntu. word on the street is that there are no Linux drivers or equivalents for Broadcom cards. is this true? am I SOL?
[06:23] <FalseLobster> I have to write a shitty Linux shell by friday
[06:23] <FalseLobster> and I can't even install linux
[06:23] <Emanon> try gksu nautilus FalseLobster
[06:23] <Emanon> then just navigate to the file manually in your now root file browser
[06:23] <maco> real1adam: not true
[06:24] <maco> real1adam: there are TWO broadcom drivers
[06:24] <FalseLobster> That opens nautilus as root but it doesn't open archive manager as root
[06:24] <maco> real1adam: there's a foss one (b43) for which you need to grab the firmware from the windows driver (hardware driver manager will automate this if you have wired connection) and the STA driver which broadcom wrote and is closed source to cover everything that's not covered by the foss one
[06:24] <Emanon> yea real1adam plug it in go to System>Administration>Hardware Drivers
[06:25] <Emanon> FalseLobster:  now go to wherever the archive is in the root file manager
[06:25] <invurse> is anyone familiar with openvpn?
[06:25] <Emanon> if you try to open it in file roller from a root nautilus it should force file roller to be root too
[06:25] <FalseLobster> Emanon: yea yea.  That opens nautilus as root, but opening hte archive doesn't open it in root
[06:25] <FalseLobster> it's still read only
[06:25] <Emanon> idk then but it just wants to f you
[06:26] <real1adam> maco, Emanon: thank you so much, I'll be sure to do that :)
[06:26] <Gerritjan> Hi all
[06:26] <Emanon> np real1adam
[06:27] <systm> ok, so I just upgraded to 10.10, only thing installed other then stock is irssi, Xorg, and dwm.  For some reason, X will no longer start, any suggestions from succesful upgraders
[06:27] <Emanon> u said you gave root read write permissions on the file FalseLobster?
[06:27] <Emanon> !maverick systm
[06:27] <Emanon> ahh that doesnt work?
[06:27] <Emanon> geh
[06:27] <invurse> any vpn gurus in the room tonite?
[06:27] <FalseLobster> Emanon: yes
[06:27] <Emanon> !10.10
[06:28] <systm> thanks Emanon
[06:28] <Emanon> there you go sytm go to #ubuntu+1
[06:28] <Emanon> np
[06:28] <Emanon> then idk FalseLobster sorry i couldnt help
[06:28] <Emanon> maybe try a less polite live disk like backtrack that doesnt respect file permissions very much
[06:29] <Emanon> and BT4 is debian based so it should be cool with .debs
[06:29] <invurse> does anyone know of a good irc channel for vpn support?
[06:29] <Emanon> #vpn maybe?
[06:30] <Emanon> or #openvpn
[06:30] <Emanon> try channels with names that sound like what you want
[06:30] <invurse> i tried openvpn earlier, but kept having problems getting in, very strange, but will try again.
[06:31] <real1adam> invurse: I got in just fine just now
[06:32] <Tim_> Looking for help trying to get an install of 64-bit Ubuntu 10.04 installed.
[06:32] <Tim_> I was running 32-bit, but it only booted about half the time, so I tried re-installing with 64-bit.
[06:33] <Meta-007> and i am looking to get a tools in ubuntu which will convert EXE file to JPEG
[06:34] <Emanon> Tim_ if you use the desktop it should be the same as installing 32 bit
[06:34] <Emanon> the desktop install disk i mean
[06:34] <Tim_> But it keeps locking up at 3.755576 usb 2-1.1.1 configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice.
[06:34] <Loshki> Meta-007: that's a very odd thing to do. Why do you think you need to do that?
[06:34] <FalseLobster> Does anyone know how to create a .rpm file ?
[06:34] <Tim_> Yeah, I'm running the desktop install disk.
[06:34] <Tim_> It's a relatively new laptop, and has a USB 3.0 port that I'm suspecting is causing problems.
[06:35] <Meta-007> Loshki, I do not know why but some friend doing this
[06:35] <Emanon> does it have any 2.0's?
[06:35] <Emanon> oh are u installing from usb stick?
[06:35] <SpaceGhostC2C> I have a web that's 2.0
[06:35] <Meta-007> Loshki, I need to know what tools they are using to do this in Ubuntu
[06:36] <ipv5> howdy
[06:36] <Emanon> Meta-007: are you talking about things like the dangerkitteh toolset?
[06:36] <Tim_> Emanon: Yeah, USB 2.0 x2 and USB 3.0 x1. No I'm installing from a CD. I'm just suspecting the USB3 port.
[06:36] <Emanon> it might be the disk if you have a usb stick try installing from that (use unetbootin) its way faster
[06:36] <Meta-007> Emanon, Dangerktteh?
[06:36] <Emanon> and easier on the stash of rw's
[06:37] <gasull> Hi. How can I add a param initrd=/boot/DSDT.aml	to grub?  Thanks.
[06:37] <Loshki> Meta-007: sorry, I don't even know what it would mean to convert an EXE to a JPEG, unless you were trying to get some browser to execute it by mistake. Are there browsers that stupid?
[06:37] <Emanon> troll toolkit from /b/
[06:37] <SpaceGhostC2C> What are we even talking about?
[06:37] <Emanon> well that or hes trying to get msn to allow him to send an exe to a friend
[06:37] <linuxnoob> hey, i have a question about aircrack but that channel appears to be dead, anyone have experience with it?
[06:37] <Tim_> True. Though I don't htink the install medium is the problem, 32-bit booted inconsistently, so I'm thinking it's a hardware conflict, but the install doesn't chuck any wobblies so to speak.
[06:38] <SpaceGhostC2C> Emanon: have whoever you're talking to pack it up in a tarball.
[06:38] <Emanon> if you try to send an exe over msn the reciever (if they are on windows) will be forced to scan it
[06:38] <Emanon> even in an archive sometimes
[06:38] <Emanon> but it doesnt usuall scan jpegs if memory serves
[06:38] <Emanon> either that or hes just a blackhat in training oh well
[06:39] <SpaceGhostC2C> Is this related to Ubuntu at all?
[06:39] <Emanon> idk there may be some other reason to do it
[06:40] <invurse> vpn anyone?
[06:40] <Tim_> So if a fresh install hangs, my only option is to re-install?
[06:40] <lurch2> who here considers themselves the ubuntu expert?
[06:40] <Meta-007> Loshki, I am using Ubuntu and WINdows . My friend also using Ubuntu . They are sending me JPEG . But if i open the jpeg file then it execute as a software
[06:40] <Emanon> i think so Tim_
[06:40] <Tim_> Rats.
[06:41] <wertwertgfhjrer> im connected to the internet via eth0. is there a way to enable wlan0 to act as an access point and bridge it to eth0, so that other clients can use the access point (wlan0) to connect to the internet? ubuntu 9.10, network-manager, nm-applet
[06:41] <Meta-007> Loshki, I was asked them that how they are doing this but they said there are tools in Ubuntu
[06:41] <Emanon> might try metasploit they might have stuff like that
[06:42] <Emanon> #metasploit
[06:42] <ipv5> just installed roundcube on ubuntu 10.04 an uncommented the aliases, but now going to the URL gets me "Can't connect to database" ...I can get to the db manually using the credentials in /etc/dbconfig-common/roundcube.conf ...anybody know what I'm messing up?
[06:42] <Tim_> is there anyway to set an OS in grub2 as default without booting into Ubuntu?
[06:42] <_BEAST> lol
[06:42] <_BEAST> meta what
[06:43] <Emanon> metasploit the penetration analasys toolkit
[06:43] <_BEAST> the all in one that rapid 7 owns ?
[06:43] <Meta-007> Emanon, You also user of Metasploit?
[06:43] <Emanon> i use Backtrack occasionally
[06:44] <_BEAST> what is backtrack ?
[06:44] <invurse> any vpn gurus?
[06:44] <Meta-007> Oh
[06:44] <Emanon> penetration testing distro _BEAST
[06:44] <Emanon> lets take this to #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:44] <Meta-007> _BEAST, kicu na
[06:44] <_BEAST> oh with backends right ?
[06:45] <_BEAST> I would rather get excellent with ncat
[06:46] <Tim_> Can anyone help me with a grub2 question?

[06:57] <invurse> openvpn cant ping end of tunnel, client says tunnel is up. all config on zentyal server looks ok, any suggestions?

[06:59] <_BEAST> MAD
[07:00] <NAJI> wertwertgfhjrer, does ubuntu need defragmention as in MS-windows??
[07:01] <wertwertgfhjrer> NAJI, check with "cat /etc/fstab" what file system you have. if its ext4 defragmentation should work automatically

[07:07] <duffman> hi, question, I have a small problem, whenever my computer comes back from being asleep my mouse and speakers won't work until a reboot, is there a way via command line to restart them?
[07:07] <reggi> rlankfo, you want to copy one source to three targets at the same time?
[07:07] <rlankfo> yes, three or more
[07:07] <NAJI> and ram is half used!!
[07:07] <reggi> hmm
[07:07] <reggi> good question
[07:07] <rlankfo> xargs?
[07:08] <duffman> cp dir dir[x,y,x] ?
[07:08] <reggi> i'm not sure rlankfo, i do know how to 'cp' one file to one only
[07:08] <KE1HA> yep, that's whatt I'd say for i in X; do mv
[07:08] <cryptopsy> anyone here able to mount their blackberry in ubuntu linux?
[07:08] <rlankfo> duffman: the directories will have arbitrary names like hello_world foo_bar etc
[07:08] <KE1HA> Flannel:  or cp rather sri, not mv.
[07:08] <duffman> oh sorry then, not sure, kinda came in with a question of my own
[07:09] <rlankfo> KE1HA: yeah probably the easiest way
[07:09] <rlankfo> thought maybe it is possible with xargs
[07:09] <duffman> anyone have any idea on how to restart my laptop mouse so it works?
[07:09] <NAJI> how can i find out that my computer is defragmenting the hard drive, please??
[07:10] <duffman> I have the built in mouse, and a usb mouse, the usb mouse will still work when the computer wakes up, just not the built in one
[07:10] <pibarnas> I get an error on my logicals partitions using cfdisk, but gparted doesnt show any. should I matter?

[07:12] <miststlkr> looking for a torrent client for GNOME that supports RSS broadcasting similar to KTorrent.  Any suggestions?
[07:12] <wertwertgfhjrer> NAJI, is the problem still there when you just boot without opening any extra programs? if so try "top" when the hard drive is active. perhaps that way you can identify the culprit

[07:16] <spinningcompass> wtf?
[07:16] <_mrn_ver_> why is it so?
[07:16] <glebihan> miststlkr, I don't know any, but you could simply use KGet, I personally use KGet under Gnome, it doesn't have too many dependencies
[07:16] <seidos> duffman, you could try searching for "reset mouse command line ubuntu" in google?
[07:17] <_BEAST> Fedora

[07:17] <duffman> well whenever the computer wakes up from sleep mode the mouse on board the laptop stops working
[07:17] <seidos> !lang | cryptopsy

[07:17] <reggi> duffman, it's a bug in ubuntu.
[07:17] <wertwertgfhjrer> duffman, for the sound you could try "sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart", but for the mouse problem i cant help
[07:17] <seidos> !language | cryptopsy
[07:18] <_mrn_ver_> each time it shows this message i reinstall ubuntu and it works fine but for ubuntu only .the problem repeats when i restaert after logging in from windows
[07:18] <NAJI> which falue should check??
[07:18] <seidos> reggi, is it in launchpad?
[07:18] <cryptopsy> seidos: stop supporting racism, you biggot
[07:18] <duffman> reggi: is there a fix?
[07:18] <seidos> cryptopsy, stop using racial slurs
[07:18] <_BEAST> rofl
[07:18] <reggi> duffman, just convert to a Microsoft compatible operating system. lol
[07:18] <cryptopsy> seidos: i'm not the only one using racial slurs, bigot scum.
[07:18] <spinningcompass> This is a case of bigot-endian vs little-endian, I think.
[07:18] <miststlkr> glebihan - I just realized that even ktorrent only takes 200mb under GNOME... I'm trying to keep a smallish footprint, but I think that is easily spared, especially if I can then ditch trasmission and reclaim part of that
[07:19] <duffman> reggi: I would prefer not to... theres no way to restart the mouse, I just have to live with this?
[07:19] <seidos> reggi, that isn't a fix.
[07:19] <reggi> duffman, but seriously, when did this mouse pad problem start happening?
[07:19] <wertwertgfhjrer> NAJI, try to look for the one with the highest cpu usage when the hard drive goes crazy
[07:19] <duffman> its been months actually.
[07:19] <_mrn_ver_> reggi, can u please help me? :( :(
[07:19] <reggi> duffman, has the mouse pad ever worked properly?
[07:19] <duffman> I pretty much always have a usb mouse plugged in so it hasn't been super bothering
[07:20] <duffman> yeah it used to work fine.
[07:20] <duffman> it most likley happened with the 10.04 upgrade. but i'm not 100% on that
[07:20] <NAJI> wertwertgfhjrer, Xorg is the highest: 4.5%!
[07:20] <reggi> duffman, what brand is your laptop?
[07:20] <miststlkr> glebihan - I d appreciate your answer though.  Thanks for taking the time.
[07:20] <duffman> its a gateway mx6445
[07:20] <wolfalfa> guys, I just installed maverick on a win7 machine. grub shows up after the windows bootloader, and it doesn't have ubuntu in the list. In grub I get the following: /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk is not a block device.
[07:20] <wolfalfa> Any thoughts?
[07:20] <glebihan> miststlkr, you're welcome
[07:20] <NAJI> wertwertgfhjrer, but!!! RAM is fully used!!
[07:21] <reggi> lemme check it out duffman gimme 1 min
[07:21] <seidos> duffman, i don't use 10.04.  doesn't work on my laptop
[07:21] <maco> !10.10 | wolfalfa
[07:21] <NAJI> wertwertgfhjrer, the system monitor always says that is it only half used!!
[07:21] <NAJI> wertwertgfhjrer, how can i find out that hard drive is being defragmented??
[07:22] <cryptopsy> NAJI: ubuntu isn't actually using all the ram you think it is
[07:22] <reggi> duffman, would you have a read of this: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2006/12/10/tweaking-your-synaptics-touchpad-laptops-ubuntu-6061-610/
[07:22] <cryptopsy> NAJI: its caching your hard-drive for faste access times
[07:22] <duffman> everything else works fine, just if I let it fall asleep when it wakes up and I log back in no mouse or sound.
[07:22] <cryptopsy> type 'free' to see cache
[07:22] <duffman> thanks reggi ill look at it right now
[07:22] <reggi> cool.
[07:22] <NAJI> wertwertgfhjrer, well, does it have to work two hours to cash??
[07:23] <reggi> _mrn_ver_, what's up?
[07:23] <wertwertgfhjrer> NAJI, dont know, you could look for the the virtual memory of each program in "top"
[07:23] <NAJI> wertwertgfhjrer, the hard drive is crazy for an hour now!!!
[07:23] <_mrn_ver_> reggi,  i installed windows 7 one side and ubuntu other side of hard disk
[07:23] <reggi> yes
[07:23] <_mrn_ver_> but when i log into ubuntu ,everything works fine
[07:24] <cryptopsy> omg why can't i use mjy blackberry with ubunut its supposed to work out of the box
[07:24] <glebihan> NAJI, sorry I didn't see the beginning of the conversation, what's the problem exactly ?
[07:24] <blag> ping
[07:24] <maco> wertwertgfhjrer: eh virtual is how much it thinks it has. itll overlap with what others think they have too, though.... a few programs can believe they have access to the same chunk of mem since its unlikely that all will try to grab it all at once
[07:24] <wertwertgfhjrer> NAJI, perhaps cryptopsy can help ya out
[07:24] <_mrn_ver_> but whenever i log in windows and after my work i restart the system it shows"no operating system found"
[07:24] <NAJI> wertwertgfhjrer, Xorg: 72727 and gnome-terminal 88000??
[07:24] <maco> wertwertgfhjrer: i usually use the resident column, but its still not perfect
[07:24] <cryptopsy> anyone here mounting their blackberry as block device in linux?
[07:24] <_mrn_ver_> then i reinstall ubuntu again and it works fine
[07:24] <cryptopsy> NAJI: fix my blackberry and i'll help you
[07:24] <_mrn_ver_> so what to do:?
[07:25] <reggi> _mrn_ver_, can you tell me which operating system was installed in your hard disk first, windows or ubuntu?
[07:25] <_mrn_ver_> windows 7
[07:25] <reggi> _mrn_ver_ hmm
[07:25] <reggi> _mrn_ver_, let me think for a sec
[07:25] <_mrn_ver_> ok
[07:26] <_mrn_ver_> take ur time
[07:26] <reggi> _mrn_ver_, would you have a look at this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[07:26] <NAJI> glebihan: i installed ubuntu in an ibm thinpad t42 with 1GB of ram, and 60 gb, the memory is half used, the cpu is merly used, but the hard drive is going crazy, it keeps working as if you are converting a big video file, i suspect that it is derfagmenting, how would i know??
[07:26] <_mrn_ver_> ok,goin to..
[07:27] <duffman> reggi: do you think the root of this problem could be the fact that my xorg.conf is about 10 lines of code all generic
[07:27] <glebihan> NAJI, just an idea, do you use ubuntu one ?
[07:27] <NAJI> cryptopsy,  i have never owned a black berry
[07:27] <NAJI> glebihan: yes
[07:27] <glebihan> NAJI, this could be it
[07:27] <glebihan> NAJI, I stopped using it because of excessive disk usage
[07:27] <NAJI> glebihan: and how would know??
[07:28] <NAJI> hmm??
[07:28] <NAJI> how to stop
[07:28] <NAJI> it??
[07:28] <cryptopsy> NAJI: please?
[07:28] <cryptopsy> trade me google skills for my debugging skills
[07:28] <glebihan> NAJI, try killing "ubuntuone-syncdaemon"
[07:28] <NAJI> and how to kill??
[07:28] <NAJI> I am newwwwww!
[07:29] <glebihan> NAJI, killall ubuntuone-syncdaemon
[07:29] <duffman> reggi:  i pm'ed you the .conf so not to flood the channel, even though its only a few lines
[07:29] <NAJI> cryptopsy, I really wish I could help every human in earth with all their problem!! but!! can't help you!

[07:32] <randerzander> I can ping it, but can't successfully ssh in
[07:33] <glebihan> randerzander, do you have a SSH server installed ?

[07:47] <_mrn_ver_> ok ,i am goin
[07:48] <sampo> wertwertgfhjrer: I do something wrong? In that page what you linked says "The easiest way to disable the Touchpad for X.Org system-wide, is to uninstall the package xserver-xorg-input-synaptics.". I remove that pakkage, but touchpad still works. Do I need to restart?
[07:50] <wertwertgfhjrer> sampo, try reboot

[07:53] <undifined> barisubuntu, enjoy the sugarfestival
[07:54] <ikonia> undifined: please read what I just typed to barisubuntu
[07:54] <glebihan> randerzander, that may be an issue...
[07:54] <riverwind_> Yeah, the Xtians want to burn a koran.  I am a Wiccan.
[07:54] <undifined> ikonia, it was all I intended to say about it
[07:54] <_mrn_ver_> reggi,  u there?
[07:54] <reggi> yep
[07:55] <randerzander> glebihan, in my prior experience apt-get installing openssh-server creates a default config that works.. why wouldn't it have done so this time?
[07:55] <glebihan> randerzander, http://paste.ubuntu.com/490765/ here is mine, try copying it and restarting the daemon
[07:55] <_mrn_ver_> u got it.forgive me if i am sticky

[07:55] <barisubuntu> i only celebrated my muslim people's bairam

[07:55] <glebihan> randerzander, I don't know, it should have installed one
[07:56] <netbkneutrino> Help? Track pad has been buggy on 10.04. it double clicks by its self. any answers?
[07:56] <reggi> it worked _mrn_ver_ ?
[07:56] <_mrn_ver_> nope ,that is the problem.it is not working
[07:58] <glebihan> randerzander, you can also try a complete removal of openssh-server (including configuration files) and then a reinstallation
[07:59] <reggi> _mrn_ver_, does it still boot to windows properly?
[07:59] <_mrn_ver_> no
[07:59] <_mrn_ver_> it is showing the error   same as above "no os found and connection problem"
[08:00] <reggi> _mrn_ver_, this problem sounds like your hard disk is not being detected by the boot loader
[08:00] <reggi> _mrn_ver_, as a result the computer looks for other devices to boot from like cdrom, usb or network.
[08:01] <_mrn_ver_> yape it is showing  other options
[08:01] <randerzander> glebihan, the config files are stored in /etc/ssh/ ?
[08:01] <glebihan> randerzander, yes
[08:01] <_mrn_ver_> but after booting from external drive how to fix this problem?
[08:02] <reggi> _mrn_ver_, one sec lemme see
[08:02] <_mrn_ver_> ok
[08:02] <randerzander> how can I get sudo privileges in nautilus? it wont let me delete /etc/ssh
[08:02] <ikonia> randerzander: don't do that !
[08:02] <ikonia> randerzander: that will destroy all your ssh client and server configs
[08:03] <randerzander> ikonia, they seem to have been messed up during apt-get installation.. why shouldn't I just re-install them?
[08:03] <glebihan> randerzander, don't do this that way
[08:03] <glebihan> randerzander, use synaptic to make the complete removal
[08:04] <reggi> randerzander, run sudo nautilus
[08:04] <reggi>  in a command line
[08:04] <ikonia> randerzander: define messaged up
[08:04] <ikonia> reggi: no
[08:04] <ikonia> reggi: the graphical command is gksudo
[08:05] <netbkneutrino> Help! Sticky mouse pad. it double clicks and opens another window or tab that i am not trying to open.
[08:05] <reggi> ikonia, thanks, i'e learned something nu!
[08:07] <randerzander> ok, I used synaptic to completely remove openssh-server.. is it not ok to "apt-get install" it again?
[08:07] <glebihan> randerzander, yes it is
[08:07] <dandre> hello

[08:08] <glebihan> ikonia, his sshd_config file was empty
[08:09] <ikonia> glebihan: that can't happen from an install, as the md5 check would fail
[08:09] <dandre> I have my laptop with an opened session. I have access to it using ssh. Is there any way to remotely configure et remote desktop access to my already opned session?
[08:09] <ikonia> someone has emptied it then
[08:09] <randerzander> ok, it worked that time.. I can't understand how it was empty the first time.
[08:09] <ikonia> dandre: no
[08:10] <dandre> The remote vncserver answers but I cab't authenticate
[08:10] <glebihan> ikonia, that's why I suggested he made a complete reinstallation

[09:17] <Sloth_Demon> The network applet(or whatever it's called) on the panel in the top is displaying "No network devices found" in the menu. My board is Intel DH55TC with core-i5. I have used ubuntu a few months ago with a ancient mercury motherboard and had no problem like this(everything was in order by default). What do I need to fix this?
[09:17] <Sloth_Demon> BTW, I'm using Jaunty Jacklope.
[09:18] <dmex> Sloth_Demon: lshw -class network
[09:19] <ziroday> Hi, I can't get notify-send to work unless I prepend the command with sudo, any way to fix this?
[09:19] <Sloth_Demon> dmex:Is that all?(sorry for being rude but I have to reboot into ubuntu to try this which has no connection)
[09:21] <Sloth_Demon> Will try and come back. Thanks anyways.
[09:21] <dmex> Sloth_Demon: Its for listing any network interfaces
[09:24] <Anomie2> Is it possible to copy/paste files (duplicate) files over SSH? Tried googling it but all I get it a bunch of results for copy/pasting text. e,g; I want the contents of var/www/dir1/wp2 to be duplicated to var/www/dir1
[09:25] <fishfly_> hello
[09:28] <Sloth_Demon> So, here's what I got : http://i53.tinypic.com/11c60q0.png
[09:28] <netbkneutrino> help. my track pad is sticky. double clicks when i only tap it once. any fixes
[09:28] <Sloth_Demon> Now what do I do next?
[09:31] <xdunlapx> Hi guys. I'm wondering how to install java. There is no sun-java6-plugin available.
[09:31] <undifined> Sloth_Demon, the command you ran needs to sudo
[09:31] <erUSUL> !java | xdunlapx
[09:32] <xdunlapx> thank you
[09:32] <erUSUL> xdunlapx: you need to eable the partners repository for sun's java.
[09:32] <Sloth_Demon> undifined: sorry but I have no idea of what you just said.
[09:33] <undifined> Sloth_Demon, your <command>, again sudo <command>
[09:34] <frobisher> !sudo
[09:35] <bluecheese> !flush
[09:35] <xdunlapx> erUSUL, thank you yes. that worked :)
[09:35] <erUSUL> yw
[09:36] <jlebrech> i think ubuntu should be able to organise files in terms or projects, and you'd be able to attach notes to them.
[09:37] <odb|fidel> jlebrech: ubuntu?
[09:37] <Anomie2> Is it possible to copy/paste files (duplicate) files over SSH? Tried googling it but all I get it a bunch of results for copy/pasting text. e,g; I want the contents of var/www/dir1/wp2 to be duplicated to var/www/dir1
[09:37] <odb|fidel> arent you looking for some kind of specifc app?
[09:37] <erUSUL> Anomie2: rsync; sftp; scp
[09:38] <fivetwentysix> Whats the command to see how much ram i have left?
[09:38] <erUSUL> fivetwentysix: free -m   ?
[09:38] <fivetwentysix> damn
[09:38] <fivetwentysix> 7mb free
[09:38] <Anomie2> erUSUL: I'm connected over sftp as well but cant see that option in FileZilla ?
[09:39] <angelo_> ciao
[09:40] <angelo_> !list
[09:41] <jlebrech> obd|fidel gnome/kde whatever. think it would be nice in ubuntu
[09:45] <bluecheese> does anyone know why flush-9:xx max out cpu?
[09:45] <odb|fidel> jlebrech: from my point of view you are way to imprecise
[09:46] <nolonx> hello, I want to install ubuntu 10.04 on my imac, but I don't want to install grub on the MBR. Unfortunately the installer won't accept the root partition as a valid install location. Is it possible to do so?
[09:46] <erUSUL> Anomie2: does not have a mput or mirror option ?
[09:46] <odb|fidel> it's about having a function in an application - not about having a function in a distri or desktop environment
[09:47] <erUSUL> Anomie2: if it is in the same machibe and you have ssh access why not a symple "cp" on the shell ?
[09:47] <erUSUL> Anomie2: i thought it was on two machines
[09:48] <methus> scp file username@machine:`pwd`
[09:49] <Anomie2> euUSUL: so -  cp path/to/file path/to/new/location
[09:49] <Anomie2> ?
[09:51] <dwad> hello everyone
[09:51] <jlebrech> odb|fidel sorry i know. it's meant to be a very vague concept, a project would just be a folder with a file explaining which editor to be use and how to test ie. a url. and a keystore file.
[09:52] <Cube``> hey did a new version of ubuntu just come out?
[09:53] <Cube``> its telling me about a "Distribution Upgrade"
[09:53] <Cube``> or did i just screw up my dependencies?
[09:53] <gschwepp> Cube``: what distribution do you run?
[09:53] <JohnnyL> where can I get the 64 bit Intel ISO ersion of Ubuntu for the desktop?
[09:53] <Cube``> ubuntu 10.4 gschwepp
[09:53] <JohnnyL> version
[09:53] <Shinydan> When I shut my Lynx box down, all it does is reboot, to the login screen, in a different screen resolution and in a different place on the monitor. I've had to fiddle with the physical monitor settings to make it usable. What's going on?
[09:53] <gschwepp> Cube``: next will be 10.10 so yet there is no update
[09:54] <Cube``> hmm ye
[09:54] <gschwepp> !ubuntu+1 Cube``
[09:54] <gschwepp> !#ubuntu+1 Cube``
[09:54] <gschwepp> sry.
[09:55] <jpds> JohnnyL: http://au.releases.ubuntu.com/10.04.1/ubuntu-10.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso
[09:56] <JohnnyL> jpds: uh hello ? thats amd
[09:56] <JohnnyL> is 10.10 only beta?
[09:56] <Cube``> JohnnyL: yeah
[09:56] <JohnnyL> Cube`` thanks
[09:57] <jpds> JohnnyL: Same thing for Intel processors.
[09:57] <kayoma1> Hi all
[09:57] <jpds> JohnnyL: AMD created the standard, so it's called AMD64.
[09:57] <netbkneutrino> Help! Track pad has been buggy on 10.04. It double clicks by its self. any answers?
[09:57] <JohnnyL> jpds: i tried the amd windows installer but I got a graphic garbled screen at  boot up.
[09:57] <kayoma1> How to install iron-linux?
[09:58] <jpds> JohnnyL: Then look at http://au.releases.ubuntu.com/10.04.1/ and pick which one you think is right for you.
[09:58] <kayoma1> i have iron-linux.tar.gz in my home dir, how to install this?
[09:59] <JohnnyL> ok, so tehre is not Intel-64 bit version. gotcha
[09:59] <kayoma1> tar xvf iron-linux.tar.gz?
[09:59] <jpds> JohnnyL: Because Intel64 == AMD64.
[09:59] <JohnnyL> jpds: well it doesn't work on my intel.
[10:01] <JohnnyL> perhaps because of my Nvidia?
[10:02] <jpds> JohnnyL: Yep, that's most likely.
[10:02] <jpds> JohnnyL: http://www.netsplit.com/2010/03/30/all-about-kernel-mode-setting/
[10:03] <netbkneutrino> How do I save my work space and resume tomorrow. I want to resume tomorrow with all the same folders, browser tabs, and programs opened exactly how they are open right now.
[10:03] <tracy69> good morning
[10:04] <JohnnyL> well, i'm trying the intel x86 version, bet that'll work.
[10:04] <Shinydan> When I shut my Lynx box down, all it does is reboot, to the login screen, in a different screen resolution and in a different place on the monitor. I've had to fiddle with the physical monitor settings to make it usable. Help?
[10:04] <jpds> JohnnyL: garbled screen == graphics card issue.
[10:04] <jpds> JohnnyL: The install CD tells you right at the very beginning that it can't run on your processor if it can't.
[10:06] <dr0id> with */15 * * * * make my cronjob run every 15mins?
[10:06] <dr0id> with */15 * * * * make my cronjob run every 15mins?

[10:08] <w0_> hi, I'm trying to play warcraft 3 on my ubuntu box via wine.  how do I mount the disc? ubuntu didn't mount it automatically
[10:08] <Shinydan> no. but I'd quite like the shutdown button to work properly.
[10:08] <seyfi> gnome-help is either trashing or hogging system resources, like in an infinite loop (karmic). I don't know what's wrong with this product but it's always been like this, unusable, yet constantly shipped for years. What to do? I need to read some docs.
[10:09] <wertwertgfhjrer> Shinydan, as i have no buttons i cant help
[10:09] <Dilain> can XChat traffic be routed through tor?
[10:09] <CaveMan> Yo guyz wassap???
[10:09] <gschwepp> Shinydan: seems that your shutdown button is going to the wrong runlevel so ... tell him do ini 0 ;)
[10:10] <CaveMan> yesterday i asked of this very nice and tiny and cheap system ( http://www.informatique.nl/127987/asrock-nettop-ion-330-pro-barebone-zwart.html ) is supported by ubuntu and it is supported, found this topic: http://forum.ubuntu-nl.org/hardware-en-drivers/asrock-nettop-ion-330/

[10:12] <CaveMan> :P
[10:12] <tracy69> rude ? what does it has to do with cave?
[10:12] <tracy69> do you live in a cave?
[10:12] <CaveMan> it looks like a cave
[10:12] <tracy69> im sorry
[10:12] <SpaceGhostC2C> I do.
[10:12] <CaveMan> it is a mix between a cave and the house they used in fightclub :P
[10:13] <doudou> Hi, i found fluxbuntu project that seems interesting, but how to know if it is not obsolete?
[10:13] <SpaceGhostC2C> CaveMan: good movie. But is this on topic?
[10:13] <CaveMan> ok sorry, they asked..
[10:13] <tracy69> u should move to europe try legally if you can people over here have normaal homes
[10:13] <Leroy> fightclub is always on topic

[10:15] <CaveMan> i have to go people... bye all

[10:33] <tinux> hi everyone
[10:33] <tinux> 146M	/home/***/mail/domain.com/user/.
[10:33] <tinux> 146M	/home/***/mail/domain.com/user/..
[10:33] <erUSUL> !codecs | theos
[10:34] <Yud_Zroc> !updater
[10:34] <tinux> how is it possible that . and .. have such big size
[10:34] <tinux> any idea
[10:34] <tinux> ?
[10:34] <theos> ok thanks erUSUL i just check it
[10:34] <erUSUL> tinux: . is current folder. and .. is parent folder
[10:36] <tinux> yes, I know this. but when I check the size of the folder alone it shows 146 M
[10:37] <erUSUL> tinux: which matchs the value for . and ..  so i say is correct
[10:38] <zemanel> hi
[10:38] <tinux> yep, got it. It was .Trash
[10:38] <tinux> lol
[10:38] <NitzchONot> Hello guys! Is there a solution about my Nautilus shows dublicate Drives ? Shows them each mounted drive 2 times, 1 entry works and the other one doesnt. Got any ideas ? :)
[10:38] <MindGrenade> Hi all,. Just wondering if anyone can help me with what partitions to make for dual boot windows/ubuntu???
[10:38] <zemanel> is it possible to convert a 64bit ubuntu installation to 32bits?
[10:39] <NitzchONot> Thats for the drives mounted via /etc/fstab by the way (HDDs with NTFS partition)
[10:39] <NitzchONot> zemanel, i think thats not possibe ;/
[10:40] <MindGrenade> whats best partitions to use for dual boot with shared partion??? do i make them all NTFS?
[10:40] <tracy69> zemanel,  i dont think so too
[10:40] <w0_> thanks guyz.  viva ubuntu!!
[10:41] <tracy69> MindGrenade,  are you talking about sharing files between ubuntu and windows? if so u will be able easy access win files from ubuntu
[10:41] <tracy69> no matter ntfs or fat
[10:41] <MindGrenade> yea
[10:42] <MindGrenade> i was reading a forum post but was a couple years old... it said to make them all NTFS
[10:42] <MindGrenade> so  can load  the share partition thru both OS
[10:42] <tracy69> MindGrenade,  u dont need any extra partition just boot ubuntu go to places computer and your windows files
[10:43] <filipek> MindGrenade, what do you exactly mean by "shared partition" like installing Ubuntu on NTFS too?
[10:43] <MindGrenade> im gonna have seperate partion for windows/ubuntu/share drive so if i need to format or change os on a drive it doesnt effect the share drive... *share drive is where ill save all my files so i can open with either os
[10:43] <Vroomfondle> filipek: in the olden days people used to make a third partition, so they'd have one for Windows, one for Linux and the thrid one was a space to put files to be shared between the two
[10:44] <MindGrenade> so if windows dies (which it does) ill just format and re-install and it wont clear my shared files partition
[10:44] <MindGrenade> so do i make all 3 partition NTFS?
[10:45] <Tonde[FI]> Could someone help with usb printer problem? (Epson Stylus DX7400)
[10:45] <Vroomfondle> I woudln't put Ubuntu on NTFS.
[10:45] <filipek> Vroomfondle, ok thanks - I didn't know that :-) I came to Ubuntu apparently after that point in time :-)
[10:45] <Vroomfondle> Have an Ext4 one for Ubuntu
[10:46] <MindGrenade> and what about windows? and Shared Data Patitions??  Usb-port/cable/printer aint broken.
[10:48] <JohnnyL> what's the default password for root?
[10:49] <MindGrenade> so will i have conflict if i use ext4 for ubuntu and NTFS for Windows & shared Partition? and will they all read ?
[10:50] <MindGrenade> will ext4 read NTFS drive correctly?
[10:50] <m4v> !root | JohnnyL
[10:50] <JohnnyL> right
[10:50] <JohnnyL> there is no root password.
[10:51] <teage> how do i uninstall vmware? i look in synaptic and its not there.
[10:54] <tracy69> teage did you install it from synaptic ? or you got it from vmware web?
[10:57] <Tonde[Jkl]> Does anyone have any idea why 10.04 does not find usb-printer? Usb-port/cable/printer are ok.
[10:58] <sniperjo_> is anyone aware of Ubuntu being less efficient at running html5 video, (ogv) in firefox or any other program ?
[10:58] <Emanon> really, gnomefreak could i get banned by a less gayly named op please that's embarrassing

[11:03] <[drnathanfurious> wow, really strange behavior with the 'time' command... can anyone confirm
[11:03] <[drnathanfurious> in the man page it says you can do
[11:03] <[drnathanfurious>  time -f "%E real,%U user,%S sys" ls -Fs
[11:03] <[drnathanfurious> to format output
[11:03] <[drnathanfurious> but it looks like time doesn't accept *any* options for me
[11:04] <[drnathanfurious> -f: command not found
[11:04] <[drnathanfurious> can anyone confirm?
[11:04] <Emanon> anyone know how to change the panel clock/calandar to military date (thats yyyy-mm-dd)
[11:05] <manasa> hi im new to ubuntu
[11:05] <rww> [drnathanfurious: Does it work if you replace "time" with "/usr/bin/time"?
[11:05] <[drnathanfurious> oh wow, that does it
[11:05] <JohnnyL> ice799, Vroomfondle,Emanon. thanks
[11:05] <[drnathanfurious> must have been aliased somewhere
[11:05] <Emanon> !welcome | manasa
[11:05] <rww> [drnathanfurious: nah, there's a bash builtin called time
[11:06] <[drnathanfurious> really... yeah I checked all over my .bashrc for something, even did `which time`
[11:06] <[drnathanfurious> that threw me for a loop
[11:06] <rww> yup. see "help time" for more info
[11:06] <t325> Hi, could someone please translate these FreeBSD rc.conf lines into Ubuntu /etc/network/interfaces language?
[11:06] <steve_> i cannot connect to any windows shares can someone help

[11:07] <t325> hostname="myHOSTNAME"
[11:07] <FloodBot4> t325: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:07] <magnetron> !details | steve_
[11:08] <t325> (http://paste.ubuntu.com/490871/)
[11:08] <sipior> t325: "man interfaces" will give you the complete documentation for setting up the /etc/network/interfaces file.
[11:08] <t325> ok, I'll check it, thanks
[11:09] <steve_> I am running ubuntu 10.04, when i open the network folder i can see "Windows Network" but when i open that there are no computers inside.
[11:09] <Emanon> u on the same workgroup steve_?
[11:10] <steve_> no the Windows workgroup is "Workgroup" and my Samba workgroup is SAMBA
[11:10] <magnetron> steve_: you need to be in the same workgroup
[11:10] <asmalik> Hi
[11:11] <Emanon> !hi
[11:11] <t325> sipior: hmm it's quite vague, I can't find the equivalent for the route_net1 and route_net2 lines
[11:11] <asmalik> can anyone tell me about some good book on g++
[11:11] <steve_> ok i have changed that using the Samba GUI
[11:11] <jrib> asmalik: #gcc probably can
[11:12] <sipior> t325: since you've only spent approximately two minutes perusing the thing, perhaps a little more reading is in order, no?
[11:12] <steve_> there are still 0 items in my Windows Network folder
[11:13] <t325> sipior: might be ;) - but since I'm here, it's that I've already read quite a lot of this stuff...
[11:14] <t325> this would be a genial thing: network configuration file converter for all *nix flavours
[11:15] <timmillwood> What's the best way to backup my ubuntu server to an external service?
[11:16] <sipior> t325: could be a fun student project. i don't dispute that a certain consistency would be welcome between the various unix flavours.
[11:16] <sipior> timmillwood: which external service were you planning on using?
[11:16] <timmillwood> sipior: the best. ;)
[11:17] <timmillwood> sipior: currently using s3 and s3sync although doesn't seem 100% reliable, and hard to monitor.
[11:17] <sipior> timmillwood: depending on your storage needs, something like ubuntu one or dropbox might do. i can highly recommend the latter, but have not yet tried the former.
[11:18] <asmalik> Hi. I want a book on g++.
[11:18] <asmalik> Can anyone help me ?
[11:18] <timmillwood> sipior: we have over 100gb of stuff to backup from an internal NAS, currently uploading the s3 via in house server.
[11:18] <jrib> asmalik: did you see what I told you?
[11:19] <asmalik> nope
[11:19] <asmalik> i was offline
[11:19] <jrib> asmalik: #gcc probably can
[11:19] <asmalik> ok
[11:21] <steve_> i am trying to check if Samba is running properly but the command sudo /etc/init.d/samba status tells me command not found
[11:21] <JohnnyL> I am using vmware with ubuntu under xp. Having trouble recognzing the xp parition. I tried sudo fdisk -l to no avail.
[11:21] <jrib> steve_: smbd if I recall correctly
[11:22] <jrib> JohnnyL: well you can't get at the host partition like that.  Try the vmware channel for tips on how to share files between host and guest
[11:23] <steve_> smbd is running process 706
[11:23] <sipior> timmillwood: you might try something like rackspace's managed backups. the folks in #ubuntu-server will probably have better recommendations for you in that regard.
[11:23] <steve_> still nothing shown in my windows network folder
[11:23] <timmillwood> sipior: thanks
[11:24] <steve_> it was working at home, but now i am at work i cannot see anything
[11:24] <JohnnyL> jrdnyquist ok thanks.
[11:24] <steve_> if i ping the computer i want to connect to i get a reply
[11:26] <imlaza> hi everone!
[11:26] <t325> sipior: http://guides.ovh.com/BridgeClient could be an interesting starting point for such a tool; at least it solved my problem.
[11:27] <den> hi all!
[11:27] <magnetron> steve_: try "pyneighborhood"
[11:29] <imlaza> i have a startup-script to starts the programs automatically after 30 seconds. #!/bin/bash sleep 30 && conky -c ~/conkyrc & but i dont know how to add the other applications to start with conky . can someone help me (what to write next of this code) ?
[11:30] <steve_> i have checked the windows machine and i can see my ubuntu machine and the shares
[11:31] <adalal> hi, is there a way to setup ubuntu where all interactive administrative or a specific user (support user)'s activities are logged and emailed?
[11:31] <Joundill> I need help setting up my microphone, I just upgraded versions and now it's not working. It's crackly at the moment, and I can only just hear myself.
[11:33] <steve_> ok installed pyneighborhood it can see the windows machine i want to connect with, when i scan the machine it tells me failed
[11:33] <Karen_m> Know how the buttons for the windows are on the left side, how can I make them more like windows and put them top right?
[11:33] <Joundill> Karen_m, press Alt+F2, then type gconf-editor
[11:34] <Joundill> Karen_m after that navigate through Apps>Metacity
[11:34] <raymond> Bonjour tout le monde
[11:34] <Joundill> and under general settings there should be an option that looks like close,maximize,minimize:
[11:34] <Joundill> change it to ":minimize,maximize,close"
[11:35] <rww> !fr
[11:35] <rww> !controls
[11:35] <Karen_m> Joundill, wow that is amazing
[11:35] <Karen_m> thank you!
[11:35] <Karen_m> instantly fixed, merci
[11:35] <Joundill> No problem :D
[11:36] <rizzuh> Hi guys, how do I convert all the files in a directory and subdirs from DOS line endings to Unix? find . | fromdos -d -o doesn't do it
[11:36] <xorwhy> Hello. Is there a way to implement tab completion system-wide, corresponding to a dictionary file?
[11:36] <xorwhy> Preferably effecting all type-able areas except terminal.
[11:38] <steve_> can anyone tell me the difference between samba and samba4
[11:39] <magnetron> rizzuh: seems like you need xargs or a bash for loop for the kind of thing you are doing
[11:39] <rww> steve_: "samba" installs samba 3, "samba4" installs samba 4. There's a separate package for the latter because it isn't yet stable.
[11:39] <rizzuh> magnetron: well I'm not that great at bash scripting xD
[11:40] <magnetron> rizzuh: i just google the stuff i want to do and steal their code :D
[11:40] <rizzuh> magnetron: google is kinda inconclusive on this one
[11:40] <steve_> this samba stuff is doing my head in lol
[11:40] <raymond> hi
[11:40] <raymond> someone know how to use vmware open client on Ubuntu?
[11:41] <magnetron> steve_: you you know that you need to reload the samba config before you start using it?
[11:42] <steve_> sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[11:42] <steve_> is that correct
[11:42] <steve_> as when i use that command i get the reply command not found
[11:42] <Joundill> Does anyone know how to fix a crackly microphone?
[11:42] <JohnnyL> how does one change directories to root in ubuntu?
[11:43] <eitama_> Hello, I'm trying to install ubuntu 10.04 64 on my laptop, and am having a hard time with it. I extracted the iso to USB Flash Drive, I can boot from it, choose the start from usb or install options, but both display corrupted visual on my monitor.
[11:43] <JohnnyL> I have a ssh public keygen i want to get from there.
[11:43] <JohnnyL> eitama_: thats what I got too.
[11:43] <JohnnyL> eitama_: i feel it's because I own an intel, not an amd.
[11:43] <eitama_> JohnnyL: purple and gray stripes all over the screen?
[11:43] <JohnnyL> eitama_ x86 works though.
[11:43] <eitama_> vertically?
[11:44] <JohnnyL> eitama_: yup
[11:44] <JohnnyL> eitama_: nvdia drivers?
[11:44] <eitama_> but i have windows 7 64 running perfect
[11:44] <eitama_> yes
[11:44] <eitama_> nvidia
[11:44] <magnetron> rizzuh: you can use xargs then
[11:44] <JohnnyL> i'll bet thats why.
[11:44] <raymond> not sure
[11:44] <magnetron> !enter
[11:44] <eitama_> on my windows atleast
[11:44] <JohnnyL> so how can I change directories to /root ?
[11:44] <xbmcNoob> hi all, im running xbmc and it has a stand alone version that runs only xbmc i.e no desktop or anything just the app. This is done through selecting xbmc sesion on the login screen, now im wondering how to add other apps to also run such as mythserver and open ssh so i can control the box remotely
[11:45] <eitama_> Ahhh, this is frustrating. Why won't I get to use 64...
[11:45] <eitama_> Thanks for the info
[11:45] <eitama_> i
[11:45] <eitama_> i
[11:45] <FloodBot4> eitama_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:45] <eitama_> i'll go poke google some more. Cheers
[11:46] <raymond> eitma_: could you explain bravely your problem ?
[11:46] <xbmcNoob> in relation to my last post I think i can just edit a file that opens processes how do I find the process names of Open SSH, mythbackend and frontend and mythweb
[11:48] <magnetron> xbmcNoob: select a GNOME session at login, run synaptic and install the packages you need using synaptic. "ssh" etc.
[11:48] <rizzuh> thanks magnetron
[11:48] <vizlim> I'm sorry, but why after update ubuntu do 10.10 . The Enter in OS me 2 bout need enter login and password ?
[11:49] <xbmcNoob> magentron, i want to use the xbmc session because its a htpc but I need just the other services and they are installed
[11:49] <magnetron> vizlim: 10.10 is not released yet, they are working on a beta though. please go to #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[11:49] <magnetron> xbmcNoob: well i thought you were asking how to install them
[11:49] <jtcc> Using 10.04, I accidentally removed the "Turn off system" button from the panel. When I click "add to panel", I don't see it in the list of icons.. anyone have any idea? right now i have no way of turning off the machine except using the terminal.
[11:49] <rob_p> xbmcNoob: The openssh server is started/stopped with an init file located in /etc/init.d/ directory.  You might find init scripts for the other things you mentioned as well.
[11:50] <xbmcNoob> magnetron, thanks heaps anywauy
[11:50] <xbmcNoob> rob_p, thanks ill give that ago
[11:50] <vizlim> Thanks magnetron
[11:50] <rob_p> xbmcNoob: If you installed openssh-server package, it should already be configured to start on boot.
[11:51] <xbmcNoob> rob_p, yes but not in xbmc session, however, your suggestion seems to be bang on
[11:51] <magnetron> jtcc: it's called something similar to "user switcher"
[11:51] <rob_p> xbmcNoob: If you haven't yet installed it, a simple, "sudo apt-get install openssh-server" will get installed and running.
[11:52] <zrzhou> hi
[11:52] <xbmcNoob> rob_p, how would i start ssh via terminal, just so i get an idea of how to edit the script right
[11:52] <zrzhou> 大家好
[11:52] <xbmcNoob> rob_p, saves a lot of trial and error =)
[11:52] <rob_p> xbmcNoob: You would type, "sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start"
[11:53] <estragib> jtcc: it's "Indictator Applet Session"
[11:53] <SuBmUnDo> free' jtcc, "Log Out..." "Shut Down..."
[11:53] <zealiod> im having issues with a weird flickry monitor after installing ubuntu, portion of the TV used is very small and the login window is just bouncing left to right... where do I start putting this right?
[11:53] <xbmcNoob> rob_p, if that works you just finished my HTPC. Thankyou very much... extreme happy face =) ++++
[11:53] <rob_p> xbmcNoob: welcome
[11:54] <jtcc> estragib: thx!
[11:55] <estragib> jtcc: welcome
[11:55] <xbmcNoob> rob_p, would "sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start" & start it as a backround process
[11:56] <xbmcNoob> rob_p, or leave out &
[11:57] <kevr> don't worry
[11:57] <kevr> ssh is a script that starts other binaries
[11:57] <kevr> you don't need &*
[11:57] <kevr> s/&\*/&/g
[11:58] <xbmcNoob> kevr, ok but for things like mythweb and mythtv backend
[11:58] <kevr> if they provided an init.d script..
[11:58] <xbmcNoob> kevr, its for multiple things you see
[11:58] <kevr> it shouldn't.
[11:58] <xbmcNoob> kevr, ok so kevr init.d is like equivlent of windows services?
[11:59] <xbmcNoob> kinda?
[11:59] <kevr> i suppose.
[11:59] <kevr> not really.
[11:59] <xbmcNoob> hmm thx
[11:59] <kevr> let me explain
[11:59] <xbmcNoob> please
[11:59] <kevr> type...
[11:59] <kevr> cat /etc/init.d/ssh
[11:59] <kevr> itll show you the contents
[11:59] <kevr> its simple a script.
[11:59] <FloodBot4> kevr: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:59] <kevr> of bash shell
[11:59] <kevr> sorry bot.
[12:00] <xbmcNoob> no such file or dir
[12:00] <kevr> anyway, that script just executes a binary and runs it in the background, a binary that usually forks itself to the background as a process.
[12:00] <kevr> i believe it's /etc/init.d/sshd, if you have it installed.
[12:00] <kevr> was going off what you typed :P
[12:01] <magnetron> watching a show about australian aboriginal life, they are eating some mangrove worms. i hear it's a tasty snack
[12:01] <wertwertgfhjrer> how do i grep more than one thing, e.g. top|grep 2 things
[12:01] <xbmcNoob> ok that made enough sence any way.
[12:01] <kevr> just do another pipe, wert
[12:01] <kevr> well
[12:01] <magnetron> oops.
[12:01] <kevr> actually..
[12:01] <xbmcNoob> kevr,  thanks heaps
[12:01] <kevr> np
[12:01] <kevr> wert, actually, i want to find out now - lol
[12:01] <kevr> hmm
[12:01] <h4ck3r_> #unbuntu.fr
[12:05] <kevr> wertwert
[12:05] <h4ck3r_> salut
[12:05] <wertwertgfhjrer> kevr, isnt working
[12:05] <kevr> grep -e oneword -e twoword
[12:06] <wertwertgfhjrer> one sec
[12:08] <brorjonas> "No hyphenations patterns were loaded"... in kile, what do I do?
[12:08] <wertwertgfhjrer> kevr, worked thx
[12:10] <Karen_m> sigh, aptitude install samba -- fails.
[12:12] <ariqz> I'm having trouble with empathy. It won't let me connect to anything. it tells me network error. I have a feeling it's related to the same reason I can't use firefox without taking it offline mode because ubuntu doesn't really support dialup
[12:13] <ariqz> it was working earlier, and you can see for yourself that I have an internet connection
[12:13] <ariqz> so why doesn't it let me connect to yahoo or icq or anything
[12:13] <steve_> i am running Ubuntu 10.04 and i am having some issues with windows networks. I could not see any windows computers on my ubuntu machine but i have re-installed SAMBA and i can now see the windows machines on my network but i cannot log into the shares, when i enter the user name and password they are rejected can someone help. Thanks
[12:14] <ariqz> yeah, now it says there is no network connection
[12:14] <ariqz> what is this lame crap?  Gnome have yet to perfect Empathy. It's still relatively new.
[12:21] <tracy69> someone say something so quiet here today
[12:22] <glebihan> something :)
[12:25] <stapel> I want to count the number of lines form the output of clamscan, but I want to update it as it happens so that I can update a progress bar. How can I do this?
[12:26] <glebihan> stapel, use "nl"
[12:26] <glebihan> stapel, something like "clamscan | nl"
[12:26] <zealiod> I've just run the command sudo ddcprobe to get info on my monitor - what do I do with this now to get my xorg.conf working with my monitor?
[12:27] <red2kic> glebihan: I learned about nl today. :)  stapel, you can use "wc -l" instead of nl if you just want a number.
[12:28] <stapel> glebihan: thanx, I did not know about nl
[12:28] <stapel> glebihan: yes I was thinking about using wc -l
[12:28] <glebihan> stapel, it would work too, depends on how you want to use the data
[12:28] <Ek|mu5> /quit

[12:29] <thomase> Hi guys - I have to set default umask for an Apache 2.2 with DAV enabled to files uploaded per webdav get group readable permissions. As far as I know umask-handling changed in 10.04 and is configured in /etc/pam.d/common-session and by setting approriate GECOS fields, right?
[12:29] <DallasG[w]> I have two audio out ports on my PC, one in the front, one in the back. Is it possible to set up my Ubuntu install to use the front jack if it has something plugged in, and otherwise use my back jack?
[12:30] <DallasG[w]> Disregard. Human error. Thanks ;-)
[12:30] <stapel> glebihan: the problem is I need to update a progress bar (whiptail --gauge) as the clamscan produces the output. 'clamscan | nl' will finish clamscan first and then pipe it to nl. I need the update line for line.
[12:33] <JuJuBee> I am getting an error when I try to apt-get update a workstation about a proxy at <IP_ADDRESS>  What is this?
[12:33] <ikonia> JuJuBee: what's the exact error
[12:34] <stapel> Can I use lsof somehow to monitor the output from a process in a bash script?
[12:34] <ikonia> stapel: not really no
[12:35] <glebihan> stapel, I think you'll have to write a little script to do what you want to
[12:35] <chull> i created a new user account for my husband, on ubuntu 10.04 but now he wants to download packages from Ubuntu Software Center and it's showing our son's login and mine but not his?
[12:35] <thomase> noone around that knows how to set umask for apache in 10.04 ?
[12:35] <JuJuBee> ikonia : same as http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1364185.html
[12:35] <stapel> glebihan: I am trying to write a script but I am not sure how to achieve what I need to
[12:36] <sipior> stapel: what exactly do you want to do?
[12:36] <glebihan> stapel, hold on, I'm giving it a try, I'll pastebin you a script when I'm done
[12:37] <ikonia> JuJuBee: what repo's are you getting the error on
[12:37] <stapel> glebihan: I need to do something like this (pseudo code): while (clamscan_process) {echo $line_number} | whiptail --gauge
[12:37] <zyj> who are you ?
[12:38] <JuJuBee> ikonia hang on, posting the exact errors...
[12:38] <stapel> glebihan: thanx
[12:38] <sipior> zyj: interesting way to begin a conversation.
[12:38] <glebihan> stapel, do you have any parameters to pass to clamscan ?
[12:39] <JuJuBee> ikonia http://pastebin.com/mufYmLNZ
[12:39] <stapel> sipior: I want to count the number of lines from the output of clamscan, but I want to update it as it happens so that I can update a progress bar.
[12:40] <chull> i created a new user account for my husband, on ubuntu 10.04 but now he wants to download packages from Ubuntu Software Center and it's showing our son's login and mine but not his?
[12:40] <stapel> glebihan: just the name of the folder, I can add the rest myself (-ir --remove=yes)
[12:41] <steve_> can anyone give me some help with SAMBA
[12:42] <odb|fidel> chull: could it be that your husbands account has no privileges to use apt?
[12:42] <steve_> i have Ubuntu 10.04, and when i try to connect to a windows share it asks me for the login, domain and password so i provide the details but i get denied
[12:42] <chull> odb|fidel, hmm how can i give him those?
[12:42] <odb|fidel> chull: or in other words: use sudo
[12:43] <glebihan> stapel, here is a little python script that should handle what you need : http://paste.ubuntu.com/490912/
[12:43] <duffydack> chull, did you create the account and allocate it a home folder...
[12:43] <glebihan> stapel, you have to pass it the folder as argument
[12:43] <LjL> chull: "sudo adduser yourhusbandsname admin" should do it. how did you create the account?
[12:43] <chull> odb|fidel, i think i did. i followed directions.
[12:43] <bodwick> steve_ ubuntu and windows are in the same workgroup?
[12:43] <stapel> glebihan: yes I know :)
[12:43] <odb|fidel> chull: the question is: how was the account created & is that account privileged to use sudo
[12:43] <JuJuBee> ikonia never mind, seems it was my proxy.  Weird that it gave me an extermal IP
[12:43] <duffydack> oh, I thought she meant not showing the name on logging into gnome.
[12:44] <sipior> stapel: the output is being saved to a file? easiest perhaps to background the clamscan program, and run a while loop using "wc -l" or "nl" to count the lines, and a "sleep" directive to follow. you can test for an exit condition on the clamscan process to terminate the while loop.
[12:44] <stapel> glebihan: sorry, you meant to your script :)
[12:44] <glebihan> stapel, yes
[12:45] <sdschulze> Hm, I'm a little bit unhappy with the way Lucid handles the sound card volume.  When I take a look at alsamixer, I see that it controls quite a number of levers in a confusing way.  Can I somehow tell it which lever to control?
[12:45] <odb|fidel> chull: you should find: user settings in menu - administration
[12:45] <odb|fidel> chull: there again should be a button advanced user settings or similar
[12:45] <odb|fidel> compare the checkboxes of your account with those of your husband
[12:46] <odb|fidel> if you arent used to terminal
[12:46] <chull> ok thanks let me try to read this.. it's so tiniy
[12:46] <odb|fidel> there is a checkbox called: administer the system
[12:46] <steve_> yes bodwick and i can access my ubuntu shares on the windows computer
[12:46] <odb|fidel> which should do the trick
[12:47] <murb> I have an root on LVM over dmcrypt / md how can i force initramfs to open the dmcrypt?
[12:47] <chull> odb|fidel, where is menu, administration in 10.04?
[12:47] <murb> i have a correct /etc/crypttab
[12:47] <odb|fidel> system -> administration
[12:48] <odb|fidel> system -> administration -> user & groups -> select account - press advanced settings
[12:48] <glebihan> stapel, will this fill your needs ?
[12:48] <stapel> glebihan: I am not sure how I am suppose to use it.
[12:49] <yejia> 有中国人在吗
[12:49] <glebihan> stapel, save it as a python file (.py), and run "python filename.py /path/to/folder"
[12:49] <bodwick> steve_ tried mounting that share using terminal or krusader ?
[12:50] <stapel> glebihan: I did that, but how is that different form just running 'clamscan -ir --remmove=yes /folder' in a bash script
[12:50] <steve_> nope, i am new to this how would i go about doing that
[12:50] <mfz2008> 有
[12:50] <glebihan> stapel, don't you get the line numbers ?
[12:50] <JeffP-BR_> Hello All. I'm in trouble installing Ubuntu Server from a pen drive in a machine without cdrom drive. The boot process is ok but the ubuntu installer stay asking for a CD rom drive. How to solve this issue?
[12:51] <chull> odb|fidel, it gives an error when i try to login as me, i think our son set himself as primary, on this drive. it was supposed to be a different box, originally. how can we get him out and us in? we need to use the drive.
[12:51] <tracy69> mfz2008,  speak American
[12:52] <chull> and his trackball isn't picking up text to copy. it won't highligiht
[12:52] <odb|fidel> chull: so you are telling me your son is the only user/account with admin privileges?
[12:52] <odb|fidel> chull: if so - force him to upgrade your account as well
[12:52] <chull> odb|fidel, possibly
[12:52] <stapel> glebihan: yes, but I can achieve that with 'clamscan -ir --remmove=yes /folder | nl'
[12:52] <glebihan> stapel, yes but there it should update as it runs
[12:53] <odb|fidel> or force him to login & then do what i mentioned above
[12:53] <chull> odb|fidel, the dear boy moved to texas and got married, i left him a voicemail yesterday, executives.. lol
[12:54] <teolicy> Hi. I've just now setup an Ubuntu Server 10.4.1. During setup, the server asked me which interface is primary; I didn't know and couldn't connect it to a network at a time, so I opted to skip that screen.
