[21:40] <rall> acicula, :)  nice!!  Didnt understand the output I got, but yeah interesting that libraries can be chacked like that.  I found the flash file here: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/. and I ldd libflashplayer.so   Got a lot of output, how do I know if I miss moething here?
[21:40] <FriedrichMan> I am trying to configure a NFS
[21:41] <alexdamian> ... rall
[21:41] <faultyground> fastijum: ah well, thats given me a strong place to start.  If I cant speed things up, I may try switching to a reiserfs and see if that helps any.  It is supposed to be very good for hoardes of tiny files
[21:41] <BlaDe^> Hi im trying to install xmms and the ./configure requires GLIB, so I tried to download it and the package manager said I already have a newer version
[21:41] <alexdamian> ... raving_
[21:41] <acicula> rall: it will say not found or missin
[21:41] <FriedrichMan> join #ubuntu-es
[21:41] <FriedrichMan> oops
[21:41] <abu123> hi
[21:42] <BlaDe^> it says: configure: error: *** GLIB >= 1.2.2 not installed - please install first **
[21:42] <fastijum> BlaDe^: do you have the dev package?
[21:42] <roscevy> oi
[21:42] <BlaDe^> fastijum,  not sure
[21:43] <FriedrichMan> so... anybody has an answer?
[21:43] <FriedrichMan> I am not sure about how to get my laptop (which only connects to the internet wirelessly) to have a static ip
[21:43] <BlaDe^> how can I check fastijum  ?
[21:43] <fastijum> faultyground: donãt know much about reiserfs. I wouldnãt call 50000 files a myriad, though
[21:43] <amos> BlaDe^: sudo apt-get install libglib1.3-dev ?
[21:43] <raving> alexdamian: what can I help you with?
[21:43] <fastijum> faultyground: (yes, theyãre quite a lot though)
[21:44] <abu123> hello
[21:44] <rall> acicula, ok thanks a lot!! Great info
[21:44] <fastijum> BlaDe^: sudo apt-get install libglib-dev
[21:45] <abu123> how to config evolution mail
[21:46] <didiermah> french!
[21:46] <didiermah> !french
[21:46] <FriedrichMan> are you guys getting my messages?
[21:47] <amos> abu123: http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/08/11/how-to-set-up-evolution-for-email/
[21:47] <abu123> it shows "the app evolution(/usr/bin/evolution) wants to access to the default  keyring , but ot is locked" what I do
[21:47] <guntbert> FriedrichMan: yes
[21:47] <raving> FriedrichMan: yes, we can see you
[21:47] <W4rning> hi
[21:47] <FriedrichMan> ok thanks
[21:47] <fastijum> FriedrichMan: yes
[21:47] <FriedrichMan> so..I am not sure about how to get my laptop (which only connects to the internet wirelessly) to have a static ip
[21:47] <BlaDe^> I installed  libglib2.0-dev  and it's still giving the same error
[21:47] <FriedrichMan> is there a way around it?
[21:47] <alesan> hi, how can I mount a file as encrypted filesystem?
[21:48] <raving> FriedrichMan: well, you can assign a static lease at the router end
[21:48] <BlaDe^> fastijum,  it couldn't find the package you provided but found libglib2.0-dev instead
[21:48] <abu123> it shows "the app evolution(/usr/bin/evolution) wants to access to the default  keyring , but ot is locked" what I do
[21:48] <FriedrichMan> raving: and how can I do this?
[21:48] <fastijum> BlaDe^: yeah, thatãs fine. but youãre still getting an error, uh? are you sure itãs the very same?
[21:49] <danger_> HI quick question when I launch too apps using sound, I lose ALL sound
[21:49] <amos> BlaDe^: sudo apt-get install xmms2
[21:49] <danger_> How do I fix this
[21:49] <raving> FriedrichMan: well it depends on whether or not your router supports that, and is usually dependent on the router. Usually, however, you can set it up in your DHCP configuration on the router's end
[21:49] <milko> vv
[21:49] <rek> hi, i did ifconfig wlan0 up/ iwlist scan/ iwconfig wlan0 essid alice-xxxxx /iwconfig wlan0 essid mywpakey / dhcpcd                  wlan0 timed out or something and then dhcpcd.sh     ip: <IP_ADDRESS> for example then  elinks www.google.it host not found where's my error?
[21:49] <BlaDe^> checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.2... no --  *** The glib-config script installed by GLIB could not be found => configure: error: *** GLIB >= 1.2.2 not installed - please install first ***
[21:50] <raving> FriedrichMan: some of the newer routers support that, and if you have a monowall or IPCop router, I know that those for sure support it
[21:50] <FriedrichMan> raving: so there's no way to do it from Edit connections/ Wireless ?
[21:50] <abu123> any one help me
[21:50] <raving> FriedrichMan: there may be, but I'm not certain.
[21:50] <planetary> how do i check what onboard video i have. apparently there is a S3 prosavage on the computer and its lame
[21:50] <raving> FriedrichMan: I don't use gnome, so I'm not familiar with most of the tools
[21:51] <acicula> planetary: S3 prosavage is the vga
[21:51] <raving> planetary: lspci can give you an idea
[21:51] <guntbert> FriedrichMan: yes there is - but to prevent duplicate IP addresses you will have to take at the router config anyway
[21:51] <FriedrichMan> guntbert: and how should I do that?
[21:52] <McL0VIN_> this is weird as Hell? please help me , i am at work and i use HummingBird to XDMCP to a Solaris 9 box . i used secureCRT to ssh to my ubunto box at home and i was browsing a webpage using w3m text browser , i THINK i clicked on a file to download i can't remember, then a DS3 went out so i went and click on exceed to see what is going on in the network then THERE WAS A WINDOWS with the file...

[21:52] <WhiteCrow1> hi
[21:52] <raving> truk, btw, Guten abend!
[21:53] <WhiteCrow1> how can i translate all Gnome language in persian or other language
[21:53] <TA_> hello, is there any application in ubuntu to run, simulate, compile, etc "Xcode"???
[21:53] <Viperfang> Evening all. I am attempting to put multiple versions of ubuntu onto 1 usb drive using syslinux. I have done almost everything and have come to a small snag. I need to move filesystem.squashfs to another folder other than casper in the root of the drive. Is there an option to do this?
[21:53] <holmser> I am having the strangest problem with my wifi
[21:53] <guntbert> FriedrichMan: in the settings go to the wireless tab, choose your connection, select edit, authenticate, goto IPv4 ...
[21:53] <holmser> I'm on ubuntu 9.10, and I can see my wireless network, but it won't associate
[21:53] <tekonivel^^> i wonder if i've understood correctly, that setting APT::Archives::MaxSize to 0 disables caching packages on my system
[21:54] <holmser> it will connect to my phone through wifi though
[21:54] <haavaros> I'm getting frustrated with gnome-terminal ... How do I make it give a beep through the sound card? I don't want the pcspeaker beep
[21:54] <tekonivel^^> i'd be happy not to store them
[21:54] <ysette> Hi, how do I find out how my Network card is called?
[21:54] <McL0VIN_> how did this happen
[21:54] <raving> holmser: is this at home or in a corporate setting?
[21:54] <tekonivel^^> ysette: "ifconfig"?
[21:54] <holmser> at home
[21:54] <WhiteCrow1> anyone can help me
[21:54] <WhiteCrow1> ?
[21:54] <ysette> tekonivel^^: thx
[21:54] <tekonivel^^> ysette: worked for you?
[21:54] <ysette> tekonivel^^: no :D
[21:54] <holmser> I was able to connect to an open wifi network for about 20 seconds, then it went dead again
[21:55] <FriedrichMan> guntbert: I am trying to do so... but I don't get the "Apply" button to activate
[21:55] <ysette> tekonivel^^: it is something where i then see realtek r.....
[21:55] <raving> holmser: are you using broadcom wireless/
[21:55] <holmser> nope.  intel 2100
[21:55] <tekonivel^^> ysette: aha that stuff, try "lspci"
[21:55] <alpaka> Please introduce a shell IRC client.
[21:55] <ysette> tekonivel^^: thx, that worked :)
[21:55] <holmser> drivers are working properly, or else I wouldn't be able to see all of the networks, correct?
[21:55] <WhiteCrow1> :) hey plz see me
[21:55] <tekonivel^^> ysette: or ssee into /var/log/syslog
[21:55] <raving> holmser: strange. I've had to occasionally disable then reenable the wireless card to get it to work
[21:56] <tekonivel^^> ysette: np
[21:56] <raving> alpaka: you're probably looking for irsii
[21:56] <holmser> and how would I do that?
[21:56] <holmser> its been a while since I've messed with wifi
[21:56] <raving> holmser: right click on the network manager, and you'll get the option to disable it
[21:56] <alpaka> raving, thank you
[21:56] <raving> alpaka: glad to help
[21:57] <guntbert> FriedrichMan: you must fill out address, netmask and gateway
[21:57] <holmser> still won't associate
[21:57] <planetary> yes prosavage 8 is whats running. i guess its a via chipset. anyways my aunt is having a tough time with flash working with firefox. from what I gather flash likes a defaultepth at 24 and her xorg.conf give little info. not sure what to do.... please help!!
[21:57] <jachu> hi!
[21:57] <FriedrichMan> guntbert: did so.... and still... cannot press it

[21:58] <raving> holmser: is this a laptop?  I am attempting to put multiple versions of ubuntu onto 1 usb drive using syslinux. I have done almost everything and have come to a small snag. I need to move filesystem.squashfs to another folder other than casper in the root of the drive. Is there an option to do this?
[21:58] <alesan> !it
[21:58] <c3l> why does 1 byte consist of specifically 8 bits? is 8 just a random nice number?
[21:58] <raving> c3l: well techinically a byte can consist of any number of bits, but 8 has a lot of advantages, including being a power of 2
[21:58] <holmser> still won't associate
[21:59] <holmser> and there isn't a switch
[21:59] <raving> holmser: I dunno to be quite honest
[21:59] <holmser> it will currently tether to my phone through an ad hoc network
[21:59] <guntbert> FriedrichMan: if you fill them out correctly you should get <apply> - but I have to leave - sorry
[21:59] <holmser> this is pissing me off
[22:00] <raving> c3l: as for why most machines have 8-bit bytes, that's just kind of how it happened
[22:00] <FriedrichMan> guntbert: ok, thanks... I'll keep trying
[22:00] <guntbert> FriedrichMan: Good luck :-)
[22:00] <haavaros> I'm getting frustrated with gnome-terminal ... How do I make it give a beep through the sound card? I don't want the pcspeaker beep
[22:00] <c3l> raving, aah. so 8 was what got used in the first placed, and for the sake of consistency 8 was kept. a byte is rather a number of bits. and the 8bite byte is whats mostly used, more correctly called an octet?
[22:01] <raving> c3l: you'll see the "byte" called the octet in networking  and interconnect parlance, the oldest machines actually had things like 9-bit bytes
[22:01] <TA_> is there any application for ubuntu to program iphone apps?
[22:01] <raving> c3l: ASCII is also a 7-bit code and you can use that extra bit for error correction
[22:02] <ion7> Does anyone know how to get HDMI audio and 1080p on an ati RV730 other than using the ati properity driver?
[22:02] <ermac0> question : is there BTO software like QTP for linux
[22:03] <raving> c3l: Otherwise that's more or less correct
[22:04] <alpaka> Is the main repository down?
[22:04] <holmser> this is killing me
[22:04] <lydia> Hello, how must I change this iptables rule that it only blocks traffic outgoing from my local net? "iptables -A OUTPUT -m owner --gid-owner no-internet -j DROP"
[22:04] <calum> ion7: Try this thread: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[22:04] <jpds> alpaka: What are you seeing?
[22:04] <raving> alpaka: not that I've been able to notice, but then agian I'm using anl's mirror
[22:04] <c3l> raving, ooh. thanks for clarifying. would you mind explaining more about how that 8th bit is used for error correction in ascii?
[22:05] <raving> c3l: usually it's something called a parity bit. Basically if the sum of the bits in the byte is even, then it gets turned on
[22:05] <haavaros> Is it possible to have gnome-terminal beep to the soundcard?
[22:05] <alpaka> jpds, sudo apt-get update, tsocks sudo apt-get update: waits forever to get the headers: [Waiting for headers]
[22:05] <raving> c3l: Modern systems use ISO-Latin-1 or UTF8, though
[22:06] <raving> Err, technically, the ISO codepage for your locale
[22:06] <alpaka> jpds, I got a shitty ISP
[22:06] <jpds> alpaka: Try: sudo apt-get update -o Debug::Acquire::http=true
[22:06] <jpds> alpaka: Try using kw.archive.ubuntu.com instead.
[22:07] <jarray52> I'm getting the error message Alert! /dev/nfs does not exist. How could I start troubleshooting this problem?
[22:07] <alpaka> jpds, thank you
[22:08] <c3l> raving, thank you! now ill let my self be fed with information from wikipedia
[22:08] <raving> c3l: good deal
[22:10] <vlt> Hello. I've installed Ubuntu 9.10 and can't connect to my wlan. The SSID is showing in the network manager tool (so I assume the device is recognised), I entered the passphrase but I always get a "can't connect/no IP address" error message. Any idea where to look first?
[22:10] <jarray52> vlt: type ifconfig at the shell prompt
[22:10] <jarray52> vlt: Do you know how to do that?
[22:12] <vlt> jarray52: There's (besides eth0 and lo) a wlan0 and a wmaster0 device.
[22:13] <jarray52> vlt: How many ethernet NICs do you have?

[22:13] <jarray52> vlt: How many physical wired and wireless connections?
[22:14] <vlt> jarray52: eth0 is wired. There's only one wireless device 083a:4521 Accton Technology Corp
[22:14] <jarray52> vlt: can you connect through the wired interface?

I need to move filesystem.squashfs to another folder other than casper in the root of the drive. Is there an option to do this? Can anyone read this? Am I being heard?

[22:24] <histo> Viperfang: lucid help is in #ubuntu+1
[22:24] <histo> Ek|mu5: not really
[22:24] <holmser> its really bugging me that I can't get the wifi to work on this laptop for a buddy.  after preaching the virtues of how easy it is to install ubuntu to him, I'm looking like an ass :)
[22:24] <vlt> duffydack: latest wicd? The one that comes with 9.10
[22:24] <histo> holmser: what tyep of card is it?
[22:24] <Viperfang> histo: im trying to boot 9.10 and 10.04 from the same drive
[22:24] <vlt> duffydack: That's 1.6.1

[22:25] <phaidonx1> hi, I am trying to set up an adhoc network between two computers both running ubuntu. I want one to automatically connect to the wireless on boot. I followed the instructions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Adhoc and put them as a startup script in /etc/init.d/adhoc-setup.sh , except that it doesn't work on startup. surprisingly I always have to try to connect in managed mode, and then switch back to adhoc for it to work (I do this over ser
[22:25] <planetary> thats to who ahve helped im buying her a nvidia card
[22:25] <holmser> sorry, ipw2100
[22:25] <Viperfang> http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/karmic/man7/casper.7.html <-- option exists in here too
[22:25] <histo> holmser: it should just work out of the box then. But you can double check the System > admin > Hardware drivers and make sure there isn't some restricted driver for it.
[22:25] <histo> holmser: how is it acting?
[22:25] <Ek|mu5> histo, on a Toshiba Portege m900 with the Core i3 and nvidia g310m GPU, it is...
[22:25] <duffydack> vlt, latest is 1.7
[22:26] <belli> need help
[22:26] <histo> Ek|mu5: what problem are you having?
[22:26] <belli> help me
[22:26] <vlt> duffydack: In Ubuntu 9.10?
[22:26] <Viperfang> belli: You're going to need to expand on that
[22:26] <holmser> I can see all of the networks, and I was even able to connect for a very short time (20 sec), but it won't associate with any access points
[22:26] <holmser> it will connect ad hoc just fine
[22:26] <histo> holmser: intel 2100 is the ipw2100 module which should load and take off with out a hitch. make sure his wifi switch is on
[22:26] <belli> can lubuntu  lucid works on dell c610?
[22:27] <histo> !lucid > belli
[22:27] <holmser> it wouldn't be able to connect ad hoc if it wasn't on
[22:27] <belli> ok
[22:27] <Gnea> okay, I'm *PISSED*.  The PPA for Firefox 3.6 used my old bookmarks from 3.0 instead of from 3.5. everything I had up-to-date has been erased. the bookmarkbackups themselves have been replaced.
[22:27] <duffydack> vlt, from wicd
[22:27] <holmser> everything appears to be working fine, except it won't connect to anything
[22:27] <Ek|mu5> histo, screen flickering on the new kernel, something to do with the brightness. This is not an issue on a patched lenny stable kernel even with nvidia drivers (but I don't have HDA Intel support on this kernel so switched back to Ubuntu)
[22:27] <histo> holmser: yeah thats odd I would try searching the forums for the card see if anyone is having an issue. But that driver has been around for a long time.
[22:27] <belli> ok,tnx
[22:27] <Gnea> now I have to spend the time to rearrange everything, AGAIN
[22:28] <holmser> I've been searching.  lots of reports of this happening, so solutions
[22:28] <belli> but who will wait for 29.04?
[22:28] <duffydack> vlt, I assume network-manager is a no go as you are using wicd.. usually means NM failed you anyway
[22:28] <Gnea> a word to the noob: if you're going to upgrade to firefox 3.6 via PPA, backup your bookmarkbackups FIRST
[22:28] <histo> Ek|mu5: maybe boot acpi=off in the mean time
[22:28] <Ek|mu5> histo, I first thought this issue was with gnome-power-manager so I switched to Xubuntu after trying XFCE on debian
[22:28] <duffydack> Gnea, checked the bookmark backup folder
[22:28] <Gnea> heck, backup your profile first
[22:28] <histo> Ek|mu5: that would tell you if its a power management issue.
[22:28] <vlt> duffydack: What does that mean?
[22:28] <Gnea> duffydack: is that a question or statement?
[22:29] <histo> Ek|mu5: also you can try changing the power management settings in bios from like s3 to s1 etc... see how it reacts.
[22:29] <DavidJHeinrich> hi, I'm rying to ask a question in #inkscape, but it keeps telling me "Cannot send to channel", any idea what's up?
[22:29] <duffydack> Gnea, bookmarkbackups folder in .mozilla
[22:29] <Gnea> duffydack: again, is that a question or a statement? learn how to read and write before saying something, please.
[22:29] <duffydack> Gnea, basically, it backs up bookmarks everytime you modify them..
[22:29] <histo> Ek|mu5: but appending acpi=off to the kernel line should tell you if its power management related.
[22:29] <vlt> DavidJHeinrich: Maybe you need to be registered to freenode to speak there.
[22:29] <Gnea> duffydack: basically, you didn't read what I wrote.
[22:29] <cooper> DavidJHeinrich, those questions are for #freenode, but odds are the channel is moderated or your nick must be registered
[22:29] <histo> holmser: let me try searching be right back
[22:30] <Gnea> duffydack: " the bookmarkbackups themselves have been replaced."
[22:30] <Ek|mu5> histo, see that's the first thing I thought of. If I do that, brightness _sometimes_ doesn't flicker but I can't control the wireless card at all even with it turned on at boot.
[22:30] <histo> holmser: what version of ubuntu you using?
[22:30] <holmser> 9.10
[22:30] <belli> eny croatian or serbian here?
[22:30] <DavidJHeinrich> vlt: how do I get registered to freenode?
[22:30] <histo> Ek|mu5: thats odd anyone on the forums running your hardware yet?
[22:30] <duffydack> Gnea, no need for insults.  I didnt see that part.
[22:30] <Gnea> duffydack: *nothing* in the backupbookmarks/ folder, within the profile, has up-to-date bookmarks from 2 days ago. they're all from a previous 3.0 profile.
[22:30] <valentinex> "Google Gears" could not be installed because it is not compatible with your Firefox build type (Linux_x86-gcc3). Please contact the author of this item about the problem.
[22:31] <holmser> I'm about to try 8.10, from what I have read that should fix it
[22:31] <Gnea> duffydack: then maybe you didn't see the part where it said "I'm *PISSED*".
[22:31] <Ek|mu5> histo, also I don't have those options in the BIOS (which is the latest on the Toshiba site)
[22:31] <vlt> DavidJHeinrich: Try `/msg nickserv help`
[22:31] <duffydack> Gnea, I take full responsibilty.
[22:31] <SolarisBoy> heh
[22:31] <histo> holmser: is that a broadcom chipset on it or the intel one?
[22:31] <Gnea> duffydack: it's cool, I'll just have to resort them. plus I have to add a few more. not the end of the world.
[22:32] <histo> Ek|mu5: hrm..
[22:32] <holmser> intel
[22:32] <histo> Ek|mu5: not sure my first try would be searching the forums
[22:32] <vlt> jarray52: What is the difference between "WPA1/2 passphrase" and "WPA1/2 PSK" in the network manager dialog?
[22:32] <Ek|mu5> histo, none yet as far as my searching goes, but I'll post there soon after I gather up all my data from the tests I've done
[22:32] <Gnea> usually backups are there for a reason.... I just find this bizarre
[22:32] <duffydack> vlt, wy are you using wicd and not network-manager?
[22:32] <histo> holmser: that would be the 3945 intel nvm
[22:32] <duffydack> vlt, basically, most people use wicd when NM doesnt work for them.. thats all im saying.
[22:33] <holmser> its a dell d400
[22:33] <vlt> duffydack: I'm confused. The Program title bar says "wicd network manager"
[22:34] <histo> holmser: k
[22:34] <An_Ony_Moose>  can having low disk space lower performance? I have the /home partition pretty full (only recently) and have noticed a big drop in performace
[22:34] <duffydack> vlt, well thats not the default...  have you tried network-manager yet?
[22:35] <vlt> duffydack: Not yet. What's the pkg called? "network-manager"?
[22:35] <histo> holmser: yeah thats supposed tob e the broadcom chipset which would explain your problems
[22:35] <duffydack> vlt, err..  yeah I think
[22:35] <histo> holmser: is he able to get on the net with a wired connection?
[22:35] <duffydack> vlt, it will remove wicd
[22:35] <histo> !broadcom | holmser
[22:35] <holmser> I'm on the laptop right now... wired is working
[22:35] <histo> holmser: K go to System > admin > hardware drivers
[22:35] <histo> holmser: should show you that it has drivers availbible for the broadcom chipset
[22:36] <holmser> nope
[22:36] <duffydack> vlt, its the default tool in ubuntu...so I assumed network manager had been used and found to be no good for this setup...
[22:36] <holmser> comes up with nothing
[22:36] <histo> holmser: what does lspci show for the network card
[22:36] <histo> !who | holmser
[22:37] <a_> hola
[22:37] <KRiMoRaL> Grr.. I can't seem to get the flash player installed on 9.10 64bit.. anyone know what's up?
[22:37] <vlt> duffydack: wicd came with "lubuntu-desktop"
[22:37] <holmser> histo: 01:03.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter (rev 04)
[22:37] <a_> eeeeeeeeeeeoooooooooooooo
[22:37] <raza> finger holmser
[22:38] <vlt> duffydack: I'm installing network-manager now
[22:38] <histo> holmser: ok yeah thats not the broadcomm the d400 someone posted it was.
[22:38] <histo> raza: what areyou doing?
[22:38] <raza> quit
[22:38] <a_> dsdfghj
[22:38] <histo> vlt: wth is lubuntu?
[22:39] <antonello> lubuntu is ubuntu with LXDE
[22:39] <holmser> the driver is working... it just won't associate with any access points
[22:39] <holmser> what a strange bug
[22:40] <histo> holmser: and your using the network manager to configure right?
[22:40] <holmser> histo: yes
[22:41] <Ek|mu5> histo, setting the brightness level to notches from the lowest level resolves the flickering. Setting it any higher introduces the flickering
[22:41] <holmser> histo: and it has no problems connecting ad hoc
[22:41] <histo> holmser: reading a rather long thread now.
[22:41] <Ek|mu5> histo, this is on batteries BTW. On AC, it's not an issue
[22:42] <histo> Ek|mu5: yeah has to be power management related. I don't think the nvidia drivers even touch on that.
[22:42] <Sia-> hi
[22:42] <holmser> histo, I really appreciate your help.  I've been banging my head against the wall for a couple days on this
[22:42] <histo> holmser: yeah thats odd
[22:43] <holmser> I read one thread that said that it won't work with dhcp, so I disabled that and it still won't connect
[22:43] <jbendotnet> how hard is it to upgrade dapper to something newer
[22:43] <jbendotnet> say hardy lts?
[22:43] <acicula> erm is dapper lts?
[22:44] <acicula> hmm nope its not, so upgrading is hard,
[22:44] <vlt> jbendotnet: dapper to hardy works
[22:44] <lc2> jbendotnet: back up everything, do a clean install
[22:44] <vlt> dapper is LTS btw
[22:44] <histo> holmser: i'm going to check for bugs i'm sure someone has filed soemthing if thats the case
[22:45] <holmser> histo: thanks
[22:45] <Ek|mu5> histo, yeah, I tried tinkering with xorg and powermizer but didn't work
[22:45] <acicula> ow hey , misread it is lts
[22:45] <calum> OK... can anyone help with my wifi?
[22:45] <vlt> jbendotnet: Support for dapper will end next year ;-)
[22:46] <jbendotnet> ok, there's nothing on the server yet
[22:46] <FriedrichMan> hey there.... I kept trying to configure my laptop so it gets a static ip
[22:46] <jbendotnet> so how do i upgrade?
[22:46] <FriedrichMan> I changed my /etc/network/interfaces
[22:46] <histo> holmser: lsmod | grep ipw2100   is that showing that the module is loaded
[22:47] <FriedrichMan> now when I #etc/init.d/networking restart ... I get a FAIL message
[22:47] <FriedrichMan> WHat's up with that?
[22:47] <Ek|mu5> histo, it's not really major since I get most of the functionality I need, but it's kind of a bummer booting up while getting shoulder surfed by Windoze users in a cafe... :D
[22:47] <maginot> Freeaqingme, pastebin you interfaces file
[22:47] <calum> My wireless connection continuously drops after a while
[22:47] <holmser> histo: ipw2100                69616  0 libipw                 42124  1 ipw2100
[22:47] <FriedrichMan> says something like couldn't read interfaces file
[22:47] <Sia-> i have onlinke banking with active card, and that need java plugin, but since karmic doesn't work anymore, any software to do online banking because in the browser is no more available.
[22:47] <Freeaqingme> maginot, not today ;)
[22:47] <maginot> FriedrichMan, so I can't help you.
[22:48] <aliancemd> FriedrichMan, try to write in the terminal: gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[22:48] <duffydack> vlt, ah lubuntu... no wonder its using wicd then lol..  well see how it goes
[22:48] <FriedrichMan> so who could
[22:48] <LinuxGuy2009> Cant help someone that doesnt want help.
[22:48] <FriedrichMan> aliancemd: I can Vim it too
[22:48] <vlt> duffydack: I just installed network-manager. How to run it?
[22:48] <maginot> exactly
[22:48] <aliancemd> and take a look in the file is there: loopback?
[22:48] <FriedrichMan> it's not like the file's missing
[22:49] <bahaa> does any body here use xchat-gnoem?
[22:49] <bahaa> gnome*
[22:49] <Freeaqingme> I appear to be using it as we speak
[22:49] <FriedrichMan> auto lo
[22:49] <aliancemd> no, is there any loopback interface?
[22:49] <FriedrichMan> iface lo inet loopback
[22:49] <vlt> duffydack: Found it: `nm-applet`
[22:49] <maginot> !pastebin
[22:49] <histo> holmser: yeah there must be an issue with that card. Let me see if there is an updated driver or something.
[22:49] <aliancemd> Hmm
[22:49] <duffydack> vlt, restart
[22:50] <duffydack> vlt, just less messy that way
[22:50] <bahaa> how to open more than one channels at once on same or different server in xchat-gnome?
[22:50] <acicula> open a new server tab
[22:50] <vlt> duffydack: I already did
[22:50] <bahaa> does any body have compaq
[22:50] <FriedrichMan> /etc/network/interfaces:7: option with empty value
[22:50] <aliancemd> FriedrichMan: What do u try to do?
[22:50] <duffydack> vlt, oh.. it should be in your tray same as wicd.
[22:50] <vlt> duffydack: ... but couldn't figure how to run nm
[22:50] <maginot> bahaa, to open other channel just type: /join #channel
[22:51] <bahaa> compaq presario 2100 with ubuntu 9.10 on it
[22:51] <maginot> bahaa, to open other server you need to open a new Server tab, on xchat menu
[22:51] <LinuxGuy2009>  bahaa: What would having a Compaq have to do with anything?
[22:51] <Slart> !anyone | bahaa
[22:51] <LinuxGuy2009>  bahaa: ask your real question.
[22:51] <duffydack> vlt, well in my startup apps its there as "nm-applet --sm-disable"
[22:51] <aliancemd> FriedrichMan: What do u try to do?
[22:52] <FriedrichMan> ok... now i feel like a total knodhead
[22:52] <FriedrichMan> I had the netmask word missing
[22:52] <vlt> duffydack: Looks just the same: nm tries to connect after prompting for password, then asks again and again.
[22:52] <bahaa> I have two questions: one: how to open a new server tab in xchat-gnome; and the second one is a little bit long so I'll type it alone:)
[22:53] <maginot> bahaa, well, if xchat-gnome is like xchat, alt+x will open the menu, them select new > server tab
[22:54] <bahaa> second: I have compaq presario 2100 with ubuntu 9.10 on it but in command line mode (tty1..tty6) it shows the text in 640*480 res although the lcd res is 1024*768 so the text is in a box surrounded with black?
[22:54] <holmser> ctrl t bahaa
[22:54] <vlt> duffydack: `watch iwconfig` shows the right ESSID but in the AP field it prints "ot-Associated"
[22:54] <vlt> *Not
[22:54] <LinuxGuy2009> bahaa: sounds like its in VESA mode maybe?
[22:55] <Viperfang> How do extract the initrd.lz, initial guides said to use gunzip, but that didnt work, so a little research led me to lzip, which states it didnt create the file and will not unpack it...
[22:55] <LinuxGuy2009> bahaa: Whats the video card? sudo lshw -C video
[22:55] <maginot> bahaa, to have more them 640x480 on tty you need frame buffer enable on boot
[22:55] <bahaa> holmserand maginot: didn't work
[22:55] <haavaros> I give up, I'll just use PuTTY for irssi ... but another problem I have in gnome is with the indicator applet: For no apparent reason the shutdown/sleep etc. options have disappeared from the menu. I can only set my status in empathy there
[22:55] <vlt> Now after the third attpemt nm just said "wireless disconnected" and finished. What to try next?
[22:56] <histo> holmser: is it 802.11n?
[22:56] <Slart> haavaros: I think it might be a permission thing
[22:56] <Sia-> any idea?
[22:56] <dsv> anyone used avidemux?after i set a and b markers how can i save that selection as a new vid?
[22:56] <holmser> the network or the card histo?
[22:56] <LinuxGuy2009> dsv: select save from the menu
[22:56] <brontosaurusrex> dsv: save as?
[22:56] <histo> holmser: the network
[22:57] <bahaa> maginot: I didn't understand
[22:57] <histo> holmser: I see some bugs filed on the driver on sourceforge about 802.11n networks not being able to associate
[22:57] <vieira> Since gnome-power-manager moved from hal to upower it shows Unknown Remaining Time... :( any idea?
[22:57] <holmser> histo, not sure what its set on right now. let me check
[22:57] <EntityReborn> Lol at bugday email.
[22:57] <duffydack> vlt, tried 10.04?
[22:57] <Slart> haavaros: I seem to recall there being a permission setting for "Shutting down the computer" somewhere.. but I can't find it any more
[22:58] <Ek|mu5> vieira, are you on Lucid?
[22:59] <holmser> histo: It was set on g
[22:59] <histo> holmser: hrm..
[22:59] <vlt> duffydack: No
[22:59] <dsv> LinuxGuy2009, brontosaurusrex how do i make it smaller in size?
[22:59] <maginot> bahaa, when you start your computer you use Grub to select Ubuntu or Windows (if you have it installed), do you know what I'm talking about?
[22:59] <vieira> Eklmu5: yep
[23:00] <LinuxGuy2009> dsv: Change the video profile and/or manually adjust bitrates etc.
[23:00] <bahaa> maginot: yes I only have windows and usually the grub loads without even allowing me to choose the mode (that is text or GUI)
[23:00] <bahaa> maginot: sorry
[23:00] <bahaa> maginot: I mean I don't have win I only have ubuntu
[23:00] <maginot> bahaa, okay, take a look here and see if you can understand: http://pierre.baudu.in/other/grub.vga.modes.html
[23:00] <vlt> dsv: file size, image size or length?
[23:01] <Ek|mu5> vieira, AFAIK the gnome-power-manager race condition was patched for Lucid.
[23:02] <LinuxGuy2009> (Holy crap Lucid boots fast)
[23:02] <calum> 10 second boot?
[23:02] <histo> holmser: I have no idea where to go else with this perhaps someone else would
[23:02] <brontosaurusrex> dsv: you use smaller bitrate
[23:02] <LinuxGuy2009> Im gonna time it right now.
[23:02] <vieira> Eklmu5: What race condition? Can you provide some more information please?
[23:02] <holmser> histo:  isn't it maddening?  I am at a loss now.
[23:03] <holmser> I've been working on this for 3 days, and there seems to be no solution... or even a diagnosable problem
[23:03] <dsv> brontosaurusrex, how?
[23:03] <vieira> Eklmu5: I have the exact some problem with Archlinux...
[23:03] <holmser> histo:  thank you for your help.
[23:03] <bahaa> maginot: can you chick this so you know what I have tried http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1442883
[23:04] <Ek|mu5> vieira: it had to do with g-p-m not syncing correctly and brought about that systray pop-up that read something like: session active, not inhibited, screen idle.
[23:05] <ubuntu> hi there folks, having a bit of a 'mare trying to multiboot osx and linux... I have grub installed to the / partition of linux which is on /dev/sda4, I've set the boot flag in gparted for that partition also
[23:05] <Ek|mu5> AFK gonna make breakfast
[23:05] <ubuntu> now, the 1st partition /dev/sda1 - which is fat32 (EFI) for OSX - has auto-changed its flag to msftres... which I gather is fixable from within osx. Only thing is... now during boot I get a black screen with a flash underscore.  Nothing boots at all.  I don't see a grub menu. any ideas?
[23:05] <vieira> I'm not sure if it is the problem I'm experiecing... it just says Unknown Time Remaing during battery discharge...
[23:05] <LinuxGuy2009> Lucid boots 38 seconds from power switch to google homepage. Nice.
[23:05] <calum> sweet
[23:06] <vieira> Eklmu5: The history is not being saved
[23:06] <bahaa> maginot: I couldn't find the file they are talking about /boot/grub/menu.lst.
[23:06] <bahaa> maginot: there is no menu in /boot/grub
[23:06] <maginot> bahaa, yeah, thats for old grub versions
[23:06] <lelluzzo> ciao a tutti
[23:06] <bahaa> maginot: have you seen the link I gave you ?
[23:07] <brontosaurusrex> dsv: how what? you select the new bitrate, thats how
[23:08] <maginot> bahaa, yes, you have to use "set gfxmode=1024x768" or whatever you need on grub.cfs
[23:08] <maginot> *grub.cfg
[23:08] <Jork> wich media player in ubuntu plays flac files?
[23:08] <bahaa> maginot: but I did and didn't work
[23:08] <ubuntu> Jork, most
[23:08] <vlt> Jork: mplayer for example (when flac codec is installed)
[23:09] <maginot> bahaa, for what I'm seeing here you tried GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768
[23:09] <erUSUL> Jork: all of them should do
[23:09] <LinuxGuy2009> Jork: its more like what apps dont play flac files. hehe
[23:10] <Jork> vlt: what is command for instaling flac codecs in ubuntu ?
[23:10] <bahaa> maginot: ok sorry but I remember I searcher for other res value and found nothing I'll see wait a sec please
[23:10] <LinuxGuy2009> Jork: flac works out of the box i think
[23:10] <erUSUL> Jork: install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[23:10] <cfedde> flac is in restricted extras?  yow!
[23:11] <maginot> bahaa, take a look at /etc/grub.d/00_header
[23:11] <LinuxGuy2009> you can play flac right out of the box
[23:11] <brontosaurusrex> Jork: there are system wide codecs in ubuntu?
[23:11] <Jork> audacius plays flac?
[23:11] <maginot> bahaa, you have GRUB_GFXMODE= variable there
[23:11] <Seth> hi, I got a problem with dvd burning, I try to burn an .iso with brasero/k3b they both say the burning is finished succesfully -- but the dvd isn't burned correctly :(
[23:11] <Seth> does somebody has any suggestions?
[23:11] <LinuxGuy2009> Jork: almost everything plays flac
[23:11] <ubuntu> Jork, have you actually _tried_ playing these files?
[23:11] <Seth> as to where to look to fix this?
[23:11] <Jork> is google chrome good for browsing (maybe better than firefox?)
[23:11] <rapha> is there any good blogging application for ubuntu?
[23:12] <rapha> ("good" as in "better than the likes of drivel and blogtk")
[23:12] <LinuxGuy2009> Jork: ive recenly started using chrome for the sweet bookmark sync feature
[23:12] <lucidlynx> rapha: its called the browser
[23:12] <Jork> twitter client for ubuntu
[23:12] <maginot> bahaa, this is my 00_header http://maginot.pastebin.com/T32rdWvs
[23:12] <LinuxGuy2009> Jork: OMG go play
[23:12] <ubuntu> rapha, gwibber
[23:12] <maginot> bahaa, look at line 37
[23:13] <ubuntu> Jork, these aren't really issues.... You need to tinker... go play

[23:13] <maginot> bahaa, that variable is them used on line 89 which is the responsable for the resolution
[23:14] <ubuntu> rapha, go check omgubuntu, the folks over there seem obsessed with blogging apps for ubuntu
[23:14] <rapha> lucidlynx: yeah but that kinda sucks if you need to write 100 articles in a row
[23:14] <LinuxGuy2009> brontosaurusrex:Is that to synce bookmarks between machines like chrome does?
[23:14] <bahaa> maginot: in grub.cfg it's already set gfxmode=1024x768
[23:14] <Squarism> what should i prefer on ubuntu.. rpm or dbm package?
[23:14] <rapha> ubuntu: cool thanks, i'll check both of these out

[23:15] <cp> acctually i am having problems with reboots my iptables gets erased so i am trying to configure in webmin
[23:15] <maginot> cp, this masquerade the interface so you can share you connection on your network, normally used masquerade when you have a dinamic ip provided by your ISP
[23:15] <Dants>    just I recomend Ubuntu ultimate
[23:16] <synack> Squarism, native binaries are in deb format, rpm is red-hat, and dpb is _possibly_ some sort of intermediary.... Most software should be available in deb format or just compile from source
[23:16] <cp> ok

[23:16] <cp> webmin had a firewall but i am unsure what i need to select under it
[23:17] <maginot> cp, you have to create a bash script. You can use iptable-save and iptables-restore
[23:17] <maginot> cp, man iptables , or ##netfilter for more information
[23:17] <c3l> lucidlynx, oh, it can make svg images? or am I using the wrong words, maybe not svg, I mean vector based

[23:20] <maginot> bahaa, yes, I don't use tty. And don't forget to use a "x" not an "*"
[23:20] <bahaa> maginot: how is it in your computer (desktop or laptop?)
[23:20] <Dants>    alguien de mexico
[23:21] <maginot> bahaa, desktop, and I have a 24" display ;X
[23:21] <synack> Squarism, have check for a ppa?  Or looked on the homepage for a deb?  Or tried compiling the source as a last resort?
[23:21] <bahaa> maginot: ok sorry

[23:21] <Squarism> synack: ppa.. i dunno what that is?
[23:21] <ganja_> hi, someone know gtkmm?
[23:21] <maginot> bahaa, normally if I want a bigger framebuffer I change on grub menu to vga=791 or whatever I will need
[23:21] <LinuxGuy2009> synack: You suffer from OCD? s/suffer/suffered
[23:21] <bahaa> maginot: where?
[23:22] <bahaa> maginot: I'll try changing 00_header
[23:22] <Travis-42> If I'm running xvfb on an ubuntu server, is there any way to remotely watch the session?
[23:22] <bahaa> maginot:  but how can I update it should I reboot?
[23:22] <maginot> bahaa, on grub menu, that which you choose ubuntu to load in the kernel line... yes, never change grub.cfg manually, its generated by the files inside /etc/grub.d
[23:22] <maginot> bahaa, yes, just reboot.
[23:23] <synack> LinuxGuy2009, yeah, yeah I do
[23:23]  * synack truns the light switch on - off - on - off
[23:23] <bahaa> maginot: I don't know how to change it from there so I change it manually (I'll change 00_header)
[23:23] <LinuxGuy2009> lol
[23:23] <bahaa> maginot: ok?
[23:23] <Darxus> Is there really no way to just copy all 55 gigabytes from my hard drive to DVDRs automatically, just prompting me for another disk when necessary?
[23:24] <maginot> bahaa, yes, give a try
[23:24] <bahaa> maginot: then reboot?
[23:24] <maginot> bahaa, yes
[23:24] <bahaa> ok
[23:24] <LinuxGuy2009> Darxus: 55GB/4.7GB=a lot of dvds
[23:24] <bahaa> see you
[23:24] <Darxus> LinuxGuy2009: I did the math, thanks :)
[23:24] <Darxus> It's only 13 DVDs.  Much less than my home computer.
[23:24] <LinuxGuy2009> Darxus: No backup drive?
[23:25] <Darxus> LinuxGuy2009: Nope.  At work.  Maybe I should just copy everything up to network storage, since local hard drive storage is officially not supported.
[23:25] <Darxus> At home of course I have a backup drive.
[23:25] <LinuxGuy2009> Darxus: What are you trying to backup anyways?
[23:25] <Darxus> LinuxGuy2009: Everything.  Want to reinstall.
[23:26] <LinuxGuy2009> Darxus: You do know you only need to backup /home correct?
[23:26] <Darxus> LinuxGuy2009: If I only have stuff in /home, sure.
[23:26] <LinuxGuy2009> Darxus:Why would you have files elsewhere?
[23:27] <Darxus> LinuxGuy2009: On this computer I might not.  Actually, I do... just for compatibility with some software that wasn't intended to be installed on a workstation.
[23:27] <brontosaurusrex> LinuxGuy2009: /var/www comes to mind for examples
[23:27] <Darxus> Also, crontabs.
[23:28] <brontosaurusrex> /usr/local/bin may have some
[23:28] <Squarism> if i manually install an application.. where should a ubuntu purist put it?
[23:28] <bahaa> maginot: didn't work :(
[23:28] <LinuxGuy2009>  Darxus: How is it you cant use local drives but are allowed to reinstall the system. Doesnt make a lot of sense.
[23:28] <fuzzybunny69y> hey everyone does anyone know how I would go about downloading all the images from a certain website?

[23:29] <Darxus> LinuxGuy2009: I could buy another hard drive and use it, but I'm not doing that for my work computer.
[23:29] <maginot> bahaa, pastebin your /etc/default/grub please
[23:29] <maginot> !pastebin
[23:29] <|littlebear|> fuzzybunny69y: http://xzero.wikidot.com look at the wget section
[23:29] <brontosaurusrex> Darxus: just ftp to someplace?

[23:29] <zbenjamin> hi @ all
[23:29] <zbenjamin>  i'm currently configuring my network , i managed to connect to the AP with WEP security (proto=WEP) but i want to use WPA2 sadly i don't get a ip when using wpa2
[23:29] <bahaa> maginot: you know after working on it I thought it was a hardware problem but today grub opened (to make me chose kernel 14..20) and it was full screen
[23:30] <bahaa> I will
[23:30] <zbenjamin> my card is Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 5300 AGN [Shiloh] Network Connection
[23:30] <zbenjamin> it seems wpa_supplicant is starting the handshake over and over again
[23:30] <zbenjamin> i'm using wpa_supplicant directly (no networkmanager)
[23:30] <LinuxGuy2009> lots of handshaking goin on

[23:34] <lee_> apparently not
[23:34] <Darxus> Guest89754: I wouldn't expect people here to know the answer.    Cant see why it shouldn't work.
[23:35] <Guest89754> my server
[23:36] <Guest89754> not mine accualy
[23:36] <LinuxGuy2009> I dont know that site. I aint goin there. no thanks

[23:36] <Guest89754> adiso
[23:36] <lee_> Barcelona?
[23:37] <bahaa> maginot: the change is only GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="vga=795"  right?
[23:37] <kjele> rall: Got flash installed?
[23:37] <maginot> bahaa, and comment GRUB_GFXMODE
[23:37] <lee_> if you do and you've watched too many videos then a flash player could go slow
[23:37] <lee_> aka, get a video accelerator
[23:37] <rall> LinuxGuy2009, its biggest newspaper in my country..  safe indeed..  kjele, yeah  got flash and codecs working now
[23:37] <bahaa> ok
[23:37] <bahaa> maginot: ok
[23:38] <maginot> bahaa, ah, what resolution do you want?
[23:38] <maginot> bahaa, 795 is 1280x1024, 791 is 1024x768
[23:38] <kjele> rall: Well it works here. Some football stuff. Maybe the service is offline for you
[23:39] <bahaa> maginot: I want 1024x768
[23:39] <bahaa> ok
[23:39] <rall> really?? how?? I have been trying for ages
[23:39] <LinuxGuy2009> rall: nope video not working on my end.
[23:39] <rall> kjele, anyway to make me copy your video setup? :)
[23:39] <LinuxGuy2009> rall: Im on lucid
[23:39] <maginot> bahaa, run update-grub after changing, reboot and see if all gone fine
[23:40] <bahaa> maginot: ok
[23:40] <bahaa> I'll reboot
[23:40] <bahaa> I updated
[23:40] <maginot> ok
[23:40] <rall> im on 9.10 with adobes flash, ubuntu-restricted-extras installed plus installed a lot of codecs from totem
[23:40] <kjele> rall: It is just like 45s not worth it. Most of it you see some poeple hugging
[23:40] <lee_> ...
[23:41] <LinuxGuy2009> rall: oooh hugging
[23:41] <infid> what's a good rss feed reader for ubuntu/gnome that can show new items popup in the notification bubble?
[23:41] <infid> i tried liferea but it only pops up how many new feeds are available, not the title of the items
[23:41] <rall> yeah, but I would like to see the news movies coming out on my newspaper :p  that spesific movie I dont care about :D
[23:41] <LinuxGuy2009> infid: firefox has built in RSS feed ability
[23:41] <lee_> it works here
[23:41] <lee_> eh, not very useful to me
[23:42] <infid> LinuxGuy2009: but like i said i want it it to integrate with notify-osd
[23:42] <LinuxGuy2009> infid: good luck
[23:42] <rall> kjele,  on a fres install whats the steps you take to install all codecs?  ubuntu 9.10 i guess?
[23:43] <lee_> - ! - wouldn't adding the exclamation before something that someone says just confuse people?
[23:43] <infid> LinuxGuy2009: what do you mean good luck? i just said that liferea can do it, just dosn't show the info i want. so obviously it's possible and i'm hoping someone knows so they can tell me so i dont have to go trying a bunch more to finally find the one that does
[23:43] <LinuxGuy2009> rall: ubuntu-restricted-extras gets most, there 1 or 2 gstreamers that it leaves out
[23:43] <bahaa> maginot: you are the coolest man on earth thank you sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much
[23:43] <kjele> rall: ubuntu-restricted-extra does it. you might want to install ffmpeg too
[23:43] <jgarbers> have successfully installed ubuntu server 9.10 under Virtual PC on win7 - except the local display is messed up - nothing but vertical stripes on the lower 3/4 of the window. i can ssh into the VM so it's running fine. any suggestions for troubleshooting video under the VM?
[23:43] <LinuxGuy2009> infid: What do you mean, what do I mean good luck. Good luck.
[23:43] <bahaa> maginot: it worked :)))))))))))) you really know what you talk about
[23:44] <rall> hmmm maybe thats it (ffmpg)  cause I got adobes flash and the restricted extras..
[23:44] <maginot> bahaa, I'm glad it worked =)
[23:44] <bahaa> maginot: I wish you were my friend man
[23:44] <bahaa> maginot: thanks a lot
[23:44] <acicula> jgarbers: Virtual PC never worked really well for me, are there any video drivers for Virtual PC for linux?
[23:44] <rall> kjele, how do I aptitude it to make sure I get it right? :)
[23:44] <infid> LinuxGuy2009: the way you said it didnt come across like you were simply wishing me luck, "i don't know, but good luck" would have. but anyway thanks
[23:44] <maginot> bahaa, no problem, anytime you need, just call =)
[23:44] <bahaa> thanks
[23:44] <kjele> rall: sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
[23:45] <Ahmed\> ANyone knows how to get ubuntu Gnome set as Mandriva exactly 3D desktop setting and rest as mandriva
[23:45] <erUSUL> jgarbers: well given that ubuntu server does not have gui you have the same interface via ssh ;)
[23:45] <LinuxGuy2009> infid: yeah there was a bit of sarcasm yep.
[23:45] <jgarbers> acicula: it's very odd. ubuntu desktop, which runs in graphics mode (obviously), works wonderfully. the text mode installer for ubuntu server was also fine.
[23:45] <jgarbers> it's just now that the server has booted, i get this junk.
[23:45] <bahaa> Ahmed\: sorry I don't but I want to say hi
[23:45] <acicula> jgarbers: weird :/
[23:45] <jgarbers> as you say the ssh interface is exactly the same, but i'd like to be able to use it 'locally' from the win7 box too.
[23:45] <Ahmed\> hi :)
[23:45] <rall> kjele,  Ok thanks:) Ill try that thanks for your help,  and linuxguy and others too!
[23:45] <erUSUL> jgarbers: probably the frambuffer driver ? you can try to tweak the vga mode the server uses
[23:45] <bahaa> Ahmed\: you don't often see people called Ahmed\ in such community
[23:46] <Ahmed\> umm
[23:46] <Ahmed\> New !
[23:46] <bahaa> Ahmed\: can we have a small chat?
[23:46] <Ahmed\> Sure
[23:46] <jgarbers> erUSUL: and where would a rookie like me look for that... help please?
[23:46] <TheMozart> I installed latest Ubuntu and now I need help in how to setup security. I want to use Ubuntu for all my Netbanking and Credit Card login etc.  What I need to do to prevent Spyware, Virus, Trojans, Makware, etc?
[23:47] <TheMozart> Malware
[23:47] <erUSUL> jgarbers: in /etc/default/grub where you see GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" add vga=791 to the string (that's for 1024x768)
[23:47] <calum> TheMozart: Viruses and spyware are not really an issue in Ubuntu. Try installing programs like chkrootkit though. They help to prevent rootkit spyware which is a threat
[23:47] <lee_> well, from what someone told me, idk personally if it's true or not, ubuntu is open source so it's hard for a virus like that to enter into it
[23:47] <erUSUL> jgarbers: maybe for a server the default options are different
[23:47] <Darxus> TheMozart: Keep using linux, don't do anything as root (or with sudo) that you don't need to.
[23:48] <erUSUL> jgarbers: then run ô¨ sudo update-grub ô£
[23:48] <erUSUL> jgarbers: and reboot
[23:48] <jgarbers> so the setting should be "quiet splash vga=791"?
[23:48] <stefano> o
[23:48] <maginot> jgarbers, actually you should edit GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="vga=791"
[23:48] <maginot> not GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT
[23:48] <erUSUL> jgarbers: yes
[23:48] <jgarbers> ok, thanks
[23:48] <calum> I do not know of any dangerous Linux viruses/worms as of yet
[23:48] <mgrvln> any exaile users on?
[23:49] <amen51> Hi all, a question: I once made the mistake of saving my gnome session. Although, I have disabled it (a long time age), every time I restart the system, I get the same application. Is there a cache, ... somewhere that I should remove?
[23:49] <TheMozart> calum: how does a rootkit install on my Ubuntu?
[23:49] <jgarbers> i see GRUB_TERMINAL=console commented out... if I never want the GUI should I uncomment that?
[23:49] <jrib> amen51: maybe save session without any apps
[23:49] <TheMozart> and where would I get a rootkit in the first place?
[23:50] <erUSUL> jgarbers: no
[23:50] <jgarbers> ok, will just go with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="vga=791"
[23:50] <amen51> jrib, the problem is that I have for example things running in the background ...
[23:50] <amen51> for example, fetchmail
[23:50] <amen51> i would like to restart the fetchmail daemon each time a restart
[23:50] <kjele> amen51: Start login and close all apps then in the session properties press on the save button again. Otherwise your session is saved in .local if I remember
[23:51] <jrib> amen51: does gnome-session remember those things?  It probably has to be a nice gnome-y app
[23:51] <erUSUL> jgarbers: that's for 1024x768 res if you want something else look a vesa modes table.
[23:51] <jgarbers> erUSUL: that's the thing... i don't want any graphic mode at all. I don't *think*.
[23:51] <amen51> jrib, yes it remembers fechmail, but it is in some zombie state ...
[23:52] <erUSUL> jgarbers: console with frambuffer can have resolution; why not
[23:52] <amen51> jrib, i have to kill the fetchmail everytime an restart it
[23:52] <jgarbers> thought it might be more likely to work in text mode. dunno.
[23:52] <erUSUL> jgarbers: you get more lines and more columns instead of the default 80x25
[23:52] <jrib> amen51: well the easy way is to just kill fetchmail now and save session, no?
[23:52] <jgarbers> whee, that other fix looks like it worked
[23:52] <jgarbers> thanks very much to all
[23:52] <gcflymoto> does Ubuntu for windows installer come in 64-bit?
[23:52] <amen51> jrib, yes that is possible
[23:52] <erUSUL> jgarbers: no problem
[23:53] <amen51> jrib, both i don't know what else it has saved
[23:53] <amen51> jrib, i want a clean solution,

[23:58] <lee_> my question = "how to make one"

[23:59] <aar> Hi, is it safe to suspend to RAM in the middle of a download? Is there any risk of damaging the disk, or creating data corruption?
[23:59] <kjele> amen51: You also have a autostart if you have added stuff
[23:59] <wormz> aar: Unlikely
[23:59] <wormz> aar: I should effectively be a free of state, including all processes etc


[05:47] <OvenWerks> eylul[m]: Have you tried Lubuntu?
[05:48] <OvenWerks> eylul[m]: specifically, even from the live ISO, from configuration center (Settings) there is a brightness control.
[05:49] <OvenWerks> does that work with your tablet?
[05:51] <OvenWerks> it does work with my main monitors, vga and hdmi. Intel graphics mind you.
[06:03] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: the new installer seems fine so far... not that different than the old. Be nice if it wasn't full screen :)
[06:03]  * OvenWerks doesn't like full screen anything
 ovenwerks not yet... :) but the bug is because of nvidia driver so I doubt it. (I will try it at some point through)
[07:13] <Eickmeyer> OvenWerks: Calamares doesn't have to be full-screen. In fact, I have it configured for us so that it's *not* full-screen.
[09:48] <RikMills> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kubuntu-devel/2020-May/011840.html
[09:50] <RikMills> tsimonq2 Eickmeyer ^
[14:07] <astraljava> CI? Has Canonical dropped support from derivates? I know, I've been away for a long time.
 RikMills: Not surprised to hear that, but I'm assuming they can't just migrate to a-la Jenkins like Lubuntu did?  :P
 (Simon's currently hammering the Lubuntu CI xD)
[14:56] <RikMills> one option is to do just that. I'm going to see if I can throw Simon some job configs in the next few days, and try to set up a test instance
[15:59]  * OvenWerks wonders what "CI" is.
[16:01] <OvenWerks> astraljava: in Studio, we are making big changes right now... right after the LTS, to be ready for the next LTS in a few years. Canonical does not seem to work that way. major lib changes that drop useful packages for flavours seem to happen about the time the LTS beta comes out.
[16:02] <OvenWerks> astraljava: you can call that support (or lack there of) or whatever. It does not help to have a great LTS release
[16:02] <housecat> CI = continuous integration
[16:03] <housecat> automated builds and such
[16:03] <OvenWerks> housecat: got it thanks


[11:56] <esv> hey folks, let's assume I have a virtual machine that for some reason goes south, if I restore it, it would get a new instanceId and the host keys will be recreated, is that correct?
[11:57] <esv> or the host keys are created per-once?
[12:55] <rharper> esv: ssh keys are generated per-instance
[12:57] <rharper> https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference/modules.html#host-keys - the various modules have a 'Frequency' at which they run, and the ssh module runs 'once-per-instance';
[13:00] <esv> thanks
[22:10] <holmanb> minimal, meena: thanks for the reviews on PR 2112. I noticed that non-systemd also doesn't support the disable file that systemd does - so I went ahead and implemented that too in the same PR.
[22:11] <holmanb> meena: since that's not kernel-specific behavior I implemented that part for netbsd too
[23:45] <minimal> holmanb: just remembered if I was to submit the openrc hotplug additions I'd also need to submit this too to make the hotplug script not Bash specific: https://git.alpinelinux.org/aports/tree/community/cloud-init/03-hook-hotplug-sh.patch
