[08:29] <IvoGeorgiev> hi
[08:30] <IvoGeorgiev> I'm compiling xsplash in Slackware, but in the log I get "[10:27:33:298546654 - WRN] Unable to call to request name.  You probably don't have sufficient privileges"
[08:30] <oroz> so ingame, if i bind left to fire, right to crouch, and scroll button to jump, and if i want to crouch and shoot, all it does is jump ;S
[08:30] <IvoGeorgiev> any ideas?
[08:30] <DecodeX01> IvoGeorgiev, you need root access
[08:30]  * draconis points IvoGeorgiev to #slackware and #linux
[08:31] <IvoGeorgiev> with root, it's the same
[08:31] <IvoGeorgiev> I guess it's dbus
[08:31] <IvoGeorgiev> but come on, xsplash is an ubuntu app
[08:31] <draconis> ahh
[08:31] <eepberries> what does ctl+alt+f2 actually do?
[08:32] <IvoGeorgiev> I'll ask in the slackware channel, but I bet they aren't interested in xsplash at all
[08:32] <PerryArmstrong> hey i am trying to play a vcd...but it says vlc doesn't support
[08:32] <DecodeX01> give you a system shell without gui
[08:32] <draconis> well I think xsplash is still broken for me, that's a karmic thing
[08:32] <IvoGeorgiev> how can I trace what it's doing?
[08:33] <IvoGeorgiev> I mean, it's just giving an error "no privilege', and nothing more, both in user and root
[08:33] <IvoGeorgiev> I bet it's dbus
[08:33] <unlink_gl> Hi, anyone good for a boot of death on 64bit ubuntu?
[08:33] <Curly_Q> Oroz, it may be possible that you have a KEYBOARD problem. Such as soda or coffee spilt on it or just water damage. Have you tried another keyboard?
[08:33] <PerryArmstrong> hey i am trying to play a vcd...but it says vlc doesn't support...any idea how to get my vlc play it
[08:34] <eepberries> uh oh. it's bad that not even that is working right for me anymore. i managed to edit xorg.conf, restarted it, and it told me that i was running in low graphics mode and gave me the option of creating a new profile for my hardware. i then restarted, but the login screen wasn't showing up. now when i use ctl+alt+f2, the screen is sliding around sort of like when you tried to watch the scrambled porn channels on old cable boxes
[08:34] <IvoGeorgiev> oh yeah, found the problem. I've compiled the xsplash package with /usr/etc instead of /etc so the dbus config file is not in place :D
[08:34] <eepberries> what should i try from here?
[08:34] <O__o> anyone who knows how to jb ipod touch please message me
[08:34] <Dayofswords> vcd? video compact disc? they make those?
[08:34] <eepberries> yes, and vlc should support it
[08:34] <oroz> nothing spilled on it, keyboard is brand new
[08:34] <eepberries> try this http://www.blog.highub.com/linux/open-vcd-using-vlc-on-ubuntu/
[08:35] <Curly_Q> OK.
[08:35] <Curly_Q> Just wondering.
[08:35] <oroz> thanks for help
[08:35] <draconis> keyboard /controller/ could be messed up, couldn't it?
[08:36] <njr> eepberries, what abt ctl+alt+f3, ctl+alt+f4,  ctl+alt+f5 etc?
[08:36] <draconis> when i8042 goes flaky, usually you get kernel panics and other serious issues, though
[08:36] <brutus_> how do I modify incremental search to instantly delete characters when I hit backspace, instead of just going to the previous occurrence of the word?
[08:36] <eepberries> njr: same
[08:36] <eepberries> i used to be able to access the command line fine, now that isn't working
[08:37] <njr> or doing a ctl+alt+f3 after ctl+alt+f2?
[08:37] <Curly_Q> Oroz, try this Google search:     http://www.google.com/#hl=en&q=Ubuntu+buffer+overflow+mouse+problem&aq=f&aqi=&oq=&fp=2cca7b2e99206b9c
[08:37] <oroz> ok, thanks
[08:37] <eepberries> nope. i'm going to check the xorg.conf i guess
[08:37] <Curly_Q> Your welcome.  :)
[08:37] <paipimenta> anybody know how to view where exactly in the volume group or physical volume the logical volume data is stored? you need this to do pvmove stuff, I remember
[08:38] <paipimenta> http://romster.dyndns.org:8080/commands.xhtml   #LVM section
[08:38] <draconis> iirc, it's possible to destroy a display using a modeline
[08:38] <prospire> tar -xf backups/backup.tar backup.sql <- this command extracts backup.sql in backup.tar in ../backups , but I want it to be extracted in backups.how do I do that?
[08:39] <eepberries> draconis: well, when i set the display resolution to "800x600" in xorg.conf, when i retarted, ubuntu told me it was running in a "low graphics mode" and i selected for it to create a new profile based on my hardware. then i restarted
[08:39] <oroz> has nothing alike my problem
[08:40] <oroz> its more like...
[08:40] <oroz> Basically in some 3D games when I use the mouse wheel (rapidly move it up and down) the game lags really,really badly for a limited amount of time , the amount of lag seems to depend on the amount of mouse wheel activity...
[08:40] <eepberries> i'm guessing i didn't configure the xorg.conf properly? though i wouldn't think the profile generation should have gone so wrong
[08:40] <Curly_Q> Oroz, it is the same as in Windows, you need to change the system properties or change the computers
[08:41] <Curly_Q> reaction to the mouse.
[08:41] <paipimenta> can anybody tell me the command that lets me see exactly how many physical extents are taken up by which logical volumes and where?
[08:41] <paipimenta> pextents vg_names,size_pe_lv??
[08:41] <paipimenta> something like that
[08:41] <oroz> could you help me with that, or at least point me in the right direction, im quite noob at linux
[08:42] <prospire> tar -xf backups/backup.tar backup.sql <- this command extracts backup.sql in backup.tar in ../backups , but I want it to be extracted in backups.how do I do that?
[08:42] <Curly_Q> Oroz I am just helping you by memory. I haven't used Linux for about 4 years now.
[08:42] <unlink_gl> can anyone give me safe boot flags, I have an errant dell vostro with 64 bit which crashes shortly after boot, previously had to turn acpi off, this however does not seem to be working with the 9.04 update...
[08:42] <cabaro> oroz: whats your problem?
[08:43] <eepberries> paipimenta: you want to see the size of your partitions, right?
[08:43] <Curly_Q> His problem is that he has a mouse buffer overflow.
[08:43] <oroz> oh, its ok, its appreciated either way
[08:43] <oroz> maybe i should've mentioned that i downgraded ubuntu
[08:43] <cabaro> mouse buffer overload.. first case of those for me
[08:44] <oroz> Basically in some 3D games when I use the mouse wheel (rapidly move it up and down) the game lags really,really badly for a limited amount of time , the amount of lag seems to depend on the amount of mouse wheel activity...
[08:44] <paipimenta> eepberries: no, I want to see exactly where on my physical volume (which physical extents #'s) are occupied by which logical volumes
[08:44] <oroz> basically ..
[08:44] <ooypp> i get some errors when i compile Ncurses library
[08:44] <Curly_Q> Oroz, how much RAM do you have?
[08:44] <unlink_gl> 4gb
[08:44] <oroz> if im not scrolling up and down, mouse looking around is smooth as silk
[08:44] <prospire> tar -xf backups/backup.tar backup.sql <- this command extracts backup.sql of backup.tar in ../backups , but I want it to be extracted in backups.how do I do that?
[08:44] <oroz> 2gb ram
[08:44] <prospire> anyone?
[08:44] <eepberries> is it bad if my ubuntu machine just shows a blinking underscore after going through grub?
[08:44] <Curly_Q> That is more than enough.
[08:45] <cabaro> oroz: have you tried with another moudr, could  be electronic related
[08:45] <cabaro> moudr=mose
[08:45] <Curly_Q> Cabaro I suggested that.
[08:45] <cabaro> :)
[08:45] <oroz> well i did, and im sure its not ;)
[08:45] <oroz> cause i managed to fix it
[08:45] <cabaro> so same problem with another mouse?
[08:45] <oroz> when i had ubuntu 9.04
[08:45] <oroz> yep
[08:46] <ooypp> anyone can help
[08:46] <Curly_Q> Oroz, when you tried a different mouse, was it the same manufacturer?
[08:46] <oroz> no it wasnt
[08:46] <cabaro> ok, next suggestion: try with live cd, is the problem replicating then
[08:46] <oroz> with live cd i dont have 3d acceleration
[08:47] <rsk> this is with an nvidia card right?
[08:47] <oroz> yep
[08:47] <Curly_Q> Oroz, perhaps if you are using games maybe it is best to use a joystick rather than a mouse.
[08:47] <oroz> wait..
[08:47] <cabaro> so its related with 4d acc.. which 3d card you have
[08:47] <rsk> that's a known problem
[08:47] <cabaro> 3d acc..
[08:47] <rsk> look on the nvidia forums for a fix
[08:47] <oroz> no joystick with fps ;)
[08:47] <onats> hello, what utility should i use to check for disk health?
[08:47] <oroz> one second..
[08:48] <rsk> onats: smartmontools maybe
[08:48] <oroz> when i finaly fixed mouse lag on 9.04, my nvidia died
[08:48] <onats> rsk, looking
[08:48] <Svenungson> Cheers, im having trouble with browsing the web. Its overall slow and some sites wont work (Connection Interrupted etc.). I have tried switching browser, changing the DNS-server, open up my firewall completely (pass all quick on my OpenBSD firewall) and the last thing i did was to install 2.6.29 and disable ipv6. Still it does not work ok, any suggestions? (And FYI i rebooted into windows and it worked splendid there, both with F
[08:48] <Svenungson> F and IE).
[08:48] <cabaro> onats: fsck
[08:48] <prospire> tar -xf backups/backup.tar backup.sql <- this command extracts backup.sql of backup.tar in ../backups , but I want it to be extracted in backups.how do I do that?
[08:48] <prospire> anyone?
[08:48] <oroz> so i put in a radeon x1600
[08:48] <ectospasm> prospire: try -C
[08:48] <oroz> but since it isnt supported on newest ubuntu, i had to downgrade
[08:48] <Curly_Q> Oroz, does everything else work OK with the video card?
[08:49] <oroz> with downgrade, same problem came back
[08:49] <oroz> yep
[08:49] <onats> cabaro, i always need to run fsck whenever i restart.. i have a feeling that somethings already wrong with my disk
[08:49] <DarkMage2303> I burnt Karmic Koala (9.10) to a disk, when I try to boot using the disk I get the error "Invalid or corrupt kernel image".
[08:49] <rsk> DarkMage2303: md5chek it
[08:49] <prospire> ectospasm: you mean -> tar -xfC backups/backup.tar backups/backup.sql
[08:49] <prospire> ?
[08:49] <DarkMage2303> rsk: how
[08:49] <cabaro> onats: are you getting bad sectors on fsck?
[08:49] <Curly_Q> Onats are you running DUAL Processors?
[08:49] <ectospasm> prospire: no, tar -xf <file> -C /path/where/you/want/to/extract/it
[08:50] <rsk> DarkMage2303: google it
[08:50] <paipimenta> !md5sum
[08:50] <paipimenta> boo ya
[08:50] <paipimenta> :-) op in no time
[08:51] <onats> curly_Q, no, but on a quad core
[08:51] <Curly_Q> I see.
[08:51] <onats> cabaro, i cant remember... but there are some errors which it corrects...
[08:51] <Curly_Q> Are you running RAID?
[08:51] <paipimenta> so....I think I may want to repartition my drive with regular ext3 partitions.... I want to set the boundaries on the disk (cylinder, head, section/sector, track, etc.) so that it will be easier to physically move data around later and resize partitions
[08:52] <paipimenta> how do find the edges of cylinders so that I can give that data to the partitioner in units it takes, i.e. kMG or blocks/sectors/whatever?
[08:52] <prospire> ectospasm: thanks
[08:52] <sebsebseb> !karmic |  DarkMage2303
[08:52] <cabaro> onats: my guess is just a hd going bad. i'd suggest getting all your data to a safehouse and replace the faulty hd
[08:52] <sebsebseb> !google | rsk
[08:53] <shrey> I want to Create a dial-up Connection in Kubuntu like in Windows to connect my Broadband..Pls help how to Create.i m a new user
[08:53] <Primefalcon> google fu lol first time I've heard of that lol
[08:53] <Curly_Q> Onats, if you run a RAID system and have different type hard drives you will run into that problem.
[08:53] <sebsebseb> shrey: The #kubuntu channel is probably more suitable for your question,  because Ubuntu is mainly for Gnome
[08:53] <Gintulis> how can i backup my root disk?
[08:53] <cabaro> whatta hck is google-fu?
[08:54] <sebsebseb> yeah I wonder what it is as well
[08:54] <paipimenta> sebsebseb: toucher
[08:54] <paipimenta> definitely not a regional google :-)
[08:54] <Primefalcon> shrey: try kppp
[08:54] <sebsebseb> paipimenta: toucher???
[08:54] <sebsebseb> paipimenta: what?
[08:54] <Curly_Q> Onats is your box a 32 bor 64 bit box?
[08:54] <paipimenta> sebsebseb: "touch" in French, term used for fenching point
[08:55] <paipimenta> first time I had seen !google
[08:55] <cabaro> gintulis:  tar cvpzf backup.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys --exclude=/media /
[08:55] <sebsebseb> paipimenta: ok,  but  I am not following you,  what about that?
[08:55] <shrey> I want to Create a dial-up Connection in Kubuntu like in Windows to connect my Broadband..Pls help how to Create.i m a new user
[08:55] <paipimenta> !google
[08:55] <Primefalcon> shrey: as I said try kppp
[08:55] <cabaro> ubottu said FU...
[08:55] <eepberries> is there any reason why a basic analog tv just won't work with ubuntu in heavy graphics mode? basic command line stuff is working but not even the live disc will get into full graphics mode properly
[08:56] <eepberries> i'm really not understanding this
[08:56] <cabaro> lol
[08:56] <oroz> are there any channels where i can get help with mouse problems
[08:56] <paipimenta> !plausible-deniability
[08:56] <paipimenta> !plausibledeniability
[08:56] <paipimenta> blah
[08:56] <cabaro> oroz, i think your problem was more related to 3d card than mouse
[08:56] <sebsebseb> !fishing |  paipimenta
[08:57] <onats> Curly_Q, no raid at all...
[08:57] <Primefalcon> shrey: before you ask again install the program kppp and it should be easy enough to dial up a connection with it
[08:57] <oroz> maybe, but my other nvidia did the same thing until i did something
[08:58] <onats> cabaro, how do you suggest i do that? buy a new one now?
[08:58] <paipimenta> wow, I think sebsebseb might be a second-layer bot
[08:58] <Dayofswords> question, when you upgrade to the next version like 9.10 when it comes out, would it be the same as if you just installed it normally from disc, other than the programs you had
[08:58] <onats> cabaro, i would like to be able to test the disk first...
[08:58] <onats> Curly_Q, my box is 64 bit, on ext3 FS
[08:58] <paipimenta> like vim to ex
[08:58] <Primefalcon> Dayofswords: not quote you wont have grub 2.0 or ext4
[08:58] <cabaro> onats: since your problem keeps coming when 3d enabled, i think its a driver issue
[08:59] <onats> cabaro, how do you know that?
[08:59] <onats> 3D enabled?
[08:59] <cabaro> you told us
[08:59] <onats> i did?
[08:59] <sebsebseb> Dayofswords: yep  Ext3 9.04 installs won't get upgraded to Ext4  9.10 installs
[08:59] <oroz> thanks
[08:59] <Dayofswords> 9.10 going to be ext4 only?
[09:00] <cabaro> onats: am i wrong, if so, please correct me. im not here to argue, my wife does that job
[09:00] <sebsebseb> paipimenta: as far as I know  attempting to wind people up in here a bit, doesn't really fit in with the channel guidelines
[09:00] <sebsebseb> !guideliens |  paipimenta
[09:00] <Primefalcon> Dayofswords: no it runs ext3 fine
[09:00] <sebsebseb> !guidelines |  paipimenta
[09:00] <onats> cabaro, well its true that i am running 3d on the desktop...
[09:00] <Curly_Q> Onats, the only thing I can say to you is that I had this problem a few years back. I was searching the entire net and all of the Linux channels. I was running a DUAL Pentium Processor SCSI RAID system. I had to FSCK the box many times to recover the system.
[09:00] <Primefalcon> Dayofswords: ext4 is just the newer later version
[09:00] <sebsebseb> Dayofswords: no
[09:00] <sebsebseb> Dayofswords: you can still do Ext3 and that, but Ext4 is worth having for / :)
[09:00] <Foxx_> hi - how do I select the ubuntu-server-minimalvm preseed without selecting it from the menu ? i'm setting up pxe and want that as my default option
[09:01] <onats> cabaro,but i wonder how it's related to the filesystem... i downloaded the latest ATI linux driver from ATI site
[09:01] <cabaro> onats_ try disabling 3d and see if the problem persists
[09:01] <shrey> Primefalcon: hey i have got it, but how can i install it in a computer where i dont have internet.
[09:01] <sebsebseb> Dayofswords: since  rather fast boot up, shut down, and disk checking after 23 or so boots
[09:01] <cabaro> you should see related logfiles in /var/log
[09:01] <onats> cabaro, ok will do that.. but I'm gonna miss it! lol
[09:01] <onats> Curly_Q, ok noted..
[09:02] <Primefalcon> shrey: request a cd from shipit when it comes out
[09:02] <Curly_Q> Onats are you running SCSI? I forgot to ask you that.
[09:02] <Primefalcon> shrey: or download and burn as iso and install it thus
[09:02] <Dayofswords> i havent really done much on my laptops 9.04 , so when 9.10 comes out, would it be a good idea just to wipe it and put a fresh 9.10?
[09:02] <shrey> Primefalcon: Thanks..
[09:02] <Primefalcon> oops
[09:02] <paipimenta> sebsebseb: just meant to be praise for your efficiency, not meant to ruffle any feathers... sorry for stealing processor cycles
[09:02] <cabaro> maybe /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog  anyone here who knows which log does pci graphics cards log?
[09:02] <onats> Curly_Q, no, all in SATA
[09:02] <Ali_nz11> whats the fastest browser for Ubunut?
[09:02] <shrey> Primefalcon: ok
[09:02] <Curly_Q> OK.
[09:03] <sebsebseb> Ali_nz11: Opera I guess
[09:03] <sebsebseb> Ali_nz11: Konqueror is also pretty fast
[09:03] <LogicFan> Ali_nz, i think its the chrome alphas ;D
[09:03] <Ali_nz11> Ok, will try it. FF seems slow?
[09:03] <Primefalcon> Dayofswords: just download an iso and burn or request a cd and do it that way, and probaly 9.10 really is quite a jump
[09:03] <lstarnes> Ali_nz11: ff is usually fast enough
[09:03] <lstarnes> Ali_nz11: ubuntu 9.10 will be using 3.5 by default
[09:03] <Primefalcon> Dayofswords: when I triued ext4 a while back it kept freezing up at inoppertune times, they prob have that fixed now though
[09:04] <sebsebseb> !browser >  Ali_nz11
[09:04] <Ali_nz11> k
[09:04] <Dayofswords> Primefalcon: any idea if ext4 will be  defualt  on 9.10?
[09:04] <Curly_Q> Onats, keep in mind that 64 bit systems are the leading edge technology. Having said that, anything that is leading edge will have more problems untill all of the Techno-Geeks find the solution.
[09:05] <Primefalcon> Dayofswords: yes it is
[09:05] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon:   Dayofswords  yes  Ext4 is optional for 9.04, ,but becasue of the kernel they have in 9.04 and that, it's not perfectly stable
[09:05] <poi77> Hi! I am trying to change the cpu scaling scheme (as in the deskbar applet) from the command line. How can I do this?
[09:05] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: so with 9.04 it's not recomended
[09:05] <sebsebseb> Dayofswords: yes it is, but not for  9.04  Ext3 upgrades for example
[09:06] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: some will recommend it with 9.04  with a bit of warning, and others won't at all
[09:06] <Dayofswords> maybe kde will work in 9.10 on my laptop =p
[09:06] <onats> Curly_Q, you're prbably right.. just dont want to risk anything.. had some uncommitted sources on my desktop when it started to manifest that problem
[09:06] <Dayofswords> (eh, i dont like kde anyways)
[09:06] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: I wouldn't when I tried it but admittedly that was a while back I had it freeze on installs and I had to manualy go in and wipe the dpkg folders to get rid of bad semi installs and lockjs
[09:07] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: a lot of people would have probs working out how to do that
[09:08] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: personally  I haven't had problems with Ext4 in 9.04, but some other people have
[09:08] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: yeah and there used to be a dataloss issue
[09:08] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: I think that's fixed in 9.04
[09:09] <Curly_Q> By the way, I always say this and I want to say this again. I am sure I speak for everyone here on this channel all 1282 members of this channel a huge THANK YOU for all of the technical support from not only myself but all of all the other Techs here. Many thanks guys and gals.   :)
[09:09] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: probaly is this was about 4-5 months back so ext4 in ubuntu was still realatively new
[09:11] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: they could have had a nice perfectly  stable  Ext4 in 9.04,  as  an optional upgrade, if they did things a bit differently regarding updates, but they don't.   I mean providing a proper kernel for it,  but also whatever else that makes it  properly stable.
[09:11] <Primefalcon> I'm looking forward to the later ATI open source drivers though in karmic since I am using an older x1300xt pro
[09:12] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: I am looking forward to the nice stable  Ext4 in  Karmic by default, so can tell loads of people to do it :)   however unless that Ext3 to Ext4 conversion is good enough, they will have to clean install Ubuntu for full support
[09:12] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: kinda too late to really worry about it now especialy since it's not an lts version or anything but in the future on dev systems I'll stick to default file systems sicne they'll be a bit more tested
[09:12] <Prohibited> What is the difference between the Ubuntu netbook version and the desktop version?
[09:13] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: well these  non LTS versions are really for testing stuff
[09:13] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: and doing new features
[09:13] <ectospasm> Prohibited: biggest difference is the default GUI
[09:13] <lstarnes> Prohibited: the netbook remix is lighter and specialised for use on netbooks
[09:13] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: yeah wonder how upgrading will go with the unr since thats changed well a lot more than the desktop
[09:13] <Prohibited> hm
[09:14] <yankees> hi, can you tell me how to share file with writing IP address in nautilus? thanks..
[09:14] <Dayofswords> did i start something =p
[09:14] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: I  would hope so in a way, because it's also pretty new,   was there one even for 8.10?
[09:15] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: a unr I dont think so
[09:15] <Prohibited> lstarnes: I'm running a laptop with 1GB RAM, 1.8GHz processor, 27GB Hard drive, 16 MB graphics card. Would the netbook version be better for my computer?
[09:15] <_cabaro_> yankees for a windows share  smb://server/share
[09:15] <lstarnes> Prohibited: is it a netbook?
[09:15] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: yep  I think 9.04 is the first  netbook remix
[09:15] <Prohibited> it's a laptop that is like 6 years old lol
[09:16] <lstarnes> Prohibited: possibly. xubuntu might suit it fine
[09:16] <lstarnes> Prohibited: you really need a bigger hd
[09:16] <Prohibited> i've got a 500GB external
[09:16] <Prohibited> lol
[09:16] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: in a way we are off topic.   Anyway regarding major new stuff,  makes sense not to do it in the LTS first,  for example  KDE 4 as the default for Kubuntu was 8.10  rather than 8.04 where it was optional,   and  Gnome 3  won't be the default in 10.04 the next LTS,   but it probably will be optional in the repo
[09:16] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: it's still beautiful though I have a asus 900ha here and well.... no problems only thing I wish is that the wifi was a bit more flexible when your traveling around it can tend to drop out and not pick up new routers within range and you have to reboot
[09:16] <Prohibited> lstarnes: how does Xubuntu differ from Ubuntu?
[09:17] <lstarnes> Prohibited: it uses xfce instead of gnome
[09:17] <lstarnes> Prohibited: it's also lighter
[09:17] <_cabaro_> prohibited 8TB RAiD
[09:17] <Prohibited> hmm
[09:17] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: they did put pulseaudio in 8.04 first though, and then all those pulseaudio issues hmm
[09:17] <daivana> Who knows how to make compiz not afect soem of my programms??
[09:17] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: ,but  pulseaudio was meant to be really good or whatever
[09:17] <ubuntistas> does wine suck ot it's just my idea?
[09:17] <Prohibited> lstarnes: thanks
[09:17] <amerinese> Does xfce work with most Gnome programs?
[09:17] <yankees> _cabaro_ : i mean between two ubuntu computer, i really need to copy my music folder :)
[09:17] <lstarnes> amerinese: yes
[09:17] <grawity> amerinese: Yes.
[09:18] <sebsebseb> ubuntistas: Wine does not suck
[09:18] <amerinese> Are there exceptions?
[09:18] <grawity> daivana: Compiz is a window manager, it affects all windows. You could try installing CCSM, most of the effects can be disabled there.
[09:18] <SANTY> HHHHHHHHYYYY
[09:18] <grawity> !ccsm | daivana
[09:18] <daivana> thanks
[09:18] <_cabaro_> yankees: easiest way is to install ssh server on the machine you want to.. actually ixnstall on both, sudo apt-get install ssh
[09:18] <grawity> amerinese: Xfce is basically just a different window manager + a different file browser + a different panel.
[09:18] <daivana> I have that
[09:19] <_cabaro_> then scp --help
[09:19] <amerinese> grawity: Okay cool... lightweight is good
[09:19] <ubuntistas> well i want to uninstall a software , i click remove and it's being installed again , how comes that doesn't suck? be realistic people, don't hear bullshits
[09:19] <grawity> amerinese: Actually, I once used xfwm4 with the rest GNOME.
[09:19] <lstarnes> ubuntistas: that word is not acceptable here
[09:19] <daivana> O want to know why is tilda not transparent, it just shows my dekstop but not what realy is behind it, I think compiz does something :)
[09:19] <Prohibited> sigh
[09:19] <ubuntistas> ok ok i apologize you're not being realistic at all dude
[09:20] <Prohibited> these mirrors were going really fast earlier, now they are going really slow. 350kb/s to 50kb/s
[09:20] <Prohibited> adding about 3h onto my downloads.
[09:20] <lstarnes> ubuntistas: if there is a bug in wine, you can report it to their developers so that they can try to fix it
[09:20] <grawity> daivana: That usually happens when there's no Compiz (or another compositing manager) at all :|
[09:20] <musikgoat1> Prohibited: try another mirror
[09:20] <amerinese> Anybody else having issues with Firefox?  I crash when it's fullsize on Youtube all the time... and also why the heck is the browser agent Shiretoko instead of Firefox 3.5?
[09:20] <sebsebseb> amerinese: ok
[09:20] <_cabaro_> yankees: scp file1 username@secondcomputername:/folderToCopy
[09:20] <sebsebseb> amerinese: yes  Flash can go bad in Firefox in Ubuntu, and things go rather bad
[09:20] <grawity> Prohibited: Change mirror? (wget, apt-get, other apps will just continue downloading from where you stopped.)
[09:20] <Primefalcon> ubuntistas: what program are you talking about doing this anyhow? i use wine a lot and havn't had this issue
[09:21] <daivana> thanks grawity
[09:21] <lstarnes> !ff35 | amerinese
[09:21] <iceroot> is this normal? i am running ubuntu on a 2GB RAM PC and ubuntu is using 1.8GB RAM (used + buffers) if i am putting 6GB into that pc and running the same! applications, ubuntu is using 3GB (used + buffers). so if there is more ram at the pc, linux is buffering more?
[09:21] <amerinese> sebsebseb: Is it possible to somehow isolate flash to another process maybe?
[09:21] <_cabaro_> yankees if you dont have proper dns resolution for your computers just replace computername with the IP address
[09:21] <amerinese> I don't want to lose my whole browser session on crash
[09:21] <Prohibited> grawity: only other New Zealand mirror has no file on the FTP.
[09:21] <sebsebseb> amerinese: also the true reason why  it's Shiretoko for 3.5  in  9.04,  is because they at least thought about how whilst 9.04  was the major release  3.5 would be released, but because of their security updates only from the repos thingey,  they reolized that they woudn't be able to put in the proper  Mozilla  3.5 version
[09:21] <grawity> iceroot: Is the CPU 32-bit or 64-bit? And the OS?
[09:21] <sebsebseb> amerinese: so basically put in the development version,  which is then made very similar to the final
[09:22] <sebsebseb> amerinese: or something like this, well those bot links should explain better than me really
[09:22] <iceroot> grawity: 64bit ubuntu on amd64 cpu
[09:22] <yankees> _cabaro_ : can you gimme an example what should i write in nautilus address bar, please.
[09:22] <grawity> iceroot: Then, maybe it just hasn't needed the extra RAM yet.
[09:22] <amerinese> sebsebseb: Okay, checking out now, but I think that is the package I have installed
[09:22] <sebsebseb> amerinese: Firefox  3.5.3  will be the default for Karmic final,  unless there's another point release for Firefox then maybe  3.5.4 for example instead
[09:22] <grawity> yankees: sftp://username@secondcomputername/
[09:22] <amerinese> Understood
[09:22] <_cabaro_> yankees if you have a problem with the commands then just install ssh on both machines and install filezilla, sudo apt-get install filezilla
[09:22] <sebsebseb> amerinese: that's the proper Firefox, with the branding and all that
[09:22] <sebsebseb> amerinese: the proper logo I mean
[09:23] <sebsebseb> amerinese: and user agent string for that matter
[09:24] <janrou> How do I get sound on flash videoes in firefox 3.0.14, ubuntu 9.04? I have followed instructions and got video in firefox without sound, and I have VLC and Mplayer playing mp3 files perfectly.
[09:24] <sebsebseb> amerinese: actsaully   that was one reason I got karmic early,  as well  as  having a good reason to repartition anyway
[09:24] <Prohibited> http://ftp.citylink.co.nz/ubuntu-releases/9.10/
[09:24] <amerinese> sebsebseb: how is that working out for you?  stable?
[09:24] <Prohibited> ( http://ftp.citylink.co.nz/ubuntu-releases/9.10/ ) no files on the FTPlol.
[09:24] <dilo> Is this the right place to get support?
[09:25] <lstarnes> dilo: for ubuntu, yes
[09:25] <sebsebseb> amerinese: I wanted  to use the proper  Firefox from the repo, rather than shiretoko, which I had been using  for a while anyway, before the clean install
[09:25] <yankees> grawity : if my computer name is emily and the other is em , what should i write?
[09:25] <cabaro> my nokia keeps shutting my network, so sorrry to anyone im trying to help
[09:25] <dilo> lstarnes, okay.
[09:25] <Soundaholic> hey
[09:25] <grawity> yankees: sftp://em/
[09:25] <sebsebseb> amerinese: and get newer stuff early, since I used Ubuntu since the second release  with Fedora Core 2 and 4 before it
[09:25] <cabaro> grawity:  thumbs up
[09:26] <sebsebseb> amerinese: well it's been better than  when I did 9.04 early
[09:26] <dilo> I want to install VNC on jaunty but i dont know how to install a *.sh script
[09:26] <sebsebseb> amerinese: stable though  well not quite
[09:26] <lstarnes> dilo: you run it
[09:26] <lstarnes> dilo: with sh file.sh
[09:26] <yankees> grawity : ok, thanks
[09:26] <sebsebseb> dilo: you don't need to do it like that you can get it from the repo
[09:26] <amerinese> sebsebseb: I see.  Man, this is a strange argument.  Why do they do it for branding, but then change the useragent?  They can have the blue globe and everything, but still leave the useragent firefox 3.5... it's for compatibility...
[09:26] <dilo> VCN is not free
[09:26] <Soundaholic> how do i change the sample rate of a song permanently  on ubuntu 8.04 LTS ( to be changed from 44.1khz to 48khz) , Audacity doesnt work on my box kindly suggest some other application to change it
[09:27] <grawity> dilo: VNC is free.
[09:27] <lstarnes> dilo: there are free vnc implementations
[09:27] <sebsebseb> amerinese: indeed I would have prefered the proper FIrefox user agent
[09:27] <dilo> oh okay, thankyou and let me try
[09:27] <eepberries> how can i use xrandr to change the login screen resolution?
[09:27] <cabaro> yankees: grawity's line should work,  but you have to install ssh (server) on the machine to connect first, sudo apt-get install ssh
[09:27] <grawity> Soundaholic: Increasing the sample rate? Is that even possible, and if it is - what's the point? Isn't it as useless as increasing the bitrate?
[09:27] <sebsebseb> amerinese: ,but  the blue globe is the devellopment version really,  and  I guess as a result it can't have the proper user agent string with Firefox in it, or that name
[09:27] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: amerinese: so would of I prefered they keep it
[09:27] <dilo> It works, thankyou!
[09:28] <sebsebseb> amerinese: going back a few releases they actsaully put in a development verison of the proper Firefox :)
[09:28] <sebsebseb> amerinese: can't remember which release that was though
[09:28] <lstarnes> amerinese, sebsebseb: there are settings in about:config that can be used to change the useragent string
[09:28] <daivana> what is the temrinal comand to copy a file in to another folder where are write permisions
[09:28] <sebsebseb> amerinese: yes they put in a  Firefox beta
[09:28] <sebsebseb> lstarnes: I know
[09:28] <bullgard4> How can I make Launchpad a list of error reports which I have contributed to?
[09:28] <sebsebseb> lstarnes: ,but that would be lieing  really if changing the shiretoko one to the FIrefox one :D
[09:28] <eepberries> daivana sudo cp filename destination
[09:28] <daivana> thanks
[09:29] <sebsebseb> lstarnes: of course  that may help with  how browser market share is measured, but still what I said
[09:29] <eepberries> example: sudo cp /home/dude/hi.png /home/bro/hi.png
[09:29] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: amerinese: lstarnes: you can also install useragent switcher but thats kidna not the point most people wont change it and if you want to interact with it you it makes things harder for stats
[09:29] <amerinese> lstarnes: yeah, I'm more concerned about the default is all, i'm using a user agent switcher when i run into problems... not just for myself, but for anyone installing... a sane default
[09:29] <dilo> 2. problem ;)
[09:29] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: I changed it :)   this time in Karmic, since  the proper en gb stuff comes in later or whatever,   I removed the en us  in the user agent so it would say en :)
[09:30] <dilo> i need to install .DOT NET Framework with wine but during the installation there comes a big error message
[09:30] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: changed in about:config
[09:30] <eepberries> anybody know how i can use xrandr to change resolution at the login screen?
[09:31] <yankees> _cabaro_ : ok. thank you. anyway, why can't i send file from my phone to ubuntu machine with bluetooth?
[09:31] <cabaro> vonmixu: moi
[09:31] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: the  whole shiretoko for 3.5   in 9.04,  has kind of confussed a lot of users really,  and so not really a great thing
[09:31] <dilo> i need to install .DOT NET Framework with wine but during the installation there comes a big error message <- help please ;)
[09:31] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: I have it listed in useragent switcher myself I use that a lot to imitate ie8 and such it helps form a web designer and php programming perspective to be able to change agents for testing
[09:31] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: indeed at that
[09:32] <lstarnes> dilo: we can't really help you if we don't know what the error message is
[09:32] <grawity> dilo: How are you installing it?
[09:32] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: make sure  it changes back to the proper one when your done though :)
[09:32] <dilo> lstarnes, well its to big for posting here
[09:32] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: of course, who wants to give microsoft undue credit
[09:32] <grawity> dilo: Pastebin.
[09:32] <lstarnes> !pastebin | dilo
[09:32] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: exactly
[09:32] <dilo> just a sec
[09:32] <grawity> dilo: Also, _why_ are you installing .NET?
[09:33] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon:  who wants to help with market share for the worst browser of all Internet Explorer
[09:34] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: that actsaully knows about this stuff, so sadly not most web users,  anyway off topic now
[09:34] <dilo> grawity, for a basic programm
[09:34] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: have to admit though that ie has made a lot of inroads for standards, I just wish they would of enforced standards mode on it from a web programers perspective ie6 and 7 are damm nightmares to deal with
[09:34] <grawity> dilo: Have you tried Mono, or doesn't it work with your program?
[09:34] <dilo> grawity, never heard of mono
[09:34] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: what do you mean inroads for standards?
[09:35] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: and with ie8 default using ie7 rendering it doesn't really help matters
[09:35] <dilo> lstarnes, here's the paste
[09:35] <dilo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/285258/
[09:35] <ectospasm> mono (the software framework project, not mononucleosis) is great
[09:35] <grawity> dilo: Mono is the .NET runtime for Linux.
[09:35] <avemowvip> s'il vous plait
[09:35] <dilo> grawity, sound great ;)
[09:35] <dilo> *sounds
[09:35] <janrou> How do I get sound on flash videoes in firefox 3.0.14, ubuntu 9.04? I have followed instructions and got video in firefox without sound, and I have VLC and Mplayer playing mp3 files perfectly. <- help needed
[09:35] <ectospasm> Novell has released Moonlight, an open-source Silverlight plugin, that works great
[09:36] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: proper w3c code that looks the same across all the browser, I don't know if you do webdesign but with ie you have to do a lot of double coding just to fix ie bugs
[09:36] <dilo> grawity, can i install it over synaptic?
[09:36] <grawity> dilo: Yes.
[09:36] <dilo> grawity, great
[09:36] <lstarnes> dilo: you might want to send that error message in a bug report to wine's developers
[09:36] <grawity> dilo: It doesn't run _all_ programs yet (and .NET apps written for Windows look ugly-ish), but try it first before messing with Wine.
[09:36] <dilo> lstarnes, alright! thankyou
[09:36] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: I have made websites before, and  made sure the pages validted and yeah,  so I know things,  indeed  all that extra work that many proper web developers have to do for silly IE, because it has most of the market still sadly
[09:37] <eepberries> anybody know how i can use xrandr to change the resolution at the login screen? the video mode for my monitor is set incorrectly
[09:37] <dilo> grawity, okay! thankyou very much
[09:37] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: Ubuntu is like a big win :)   for a lot of things,   Firefox by default instead of that horrible browser,  Open Office instead of Microsoft Office, etc
[09:37] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: of course a lot of other distros  that applys to as well,   and we are off topic hmm
[09:38] <Primefalcon> sebsebseb: its about 3 times the the work since ie6 and 7 render cmpletely different than complient browsers such as opera or ff but they in turn render completely different than each other which complicates matters even further
[09:38] <sebsebseb> Primefalcon: if you want to continue for a bit we should take it to pm or #ubuntu-offtopic really
[09:39] <N3O> I'm using ubuntu 9.04 .
[09:39] <Primefalcon> seb yah I should prob be finishing off the code im doing and head off to bed its 3:39am here lol
[09:39] <Dayofswords> i noticed have alot of "iefix" iehack"  stuff in thei website's source
[09:39] <N3O> Now i wanna install kubuntu 9.04 from cd with ubuntu. what i have to do ?
[09:39] <rsk> N3O: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[09:40] <MenZa> N3O: Why use a CD? You can install kubuntu-desktop from the repositories instead.
[09:40] <Buckie> Does anyone inhere know anything about crontab ?
[09:40] <grawity> MenZa: Let me guess, very slow intertube.
[09:40] <MenZa> grawity: A possibility.
[09:40] <grawity> Buckie: Yes, what's your problem?
[09:40] <bullgard4> How can I make Launchpad to produce a list of error reports which I have contributed to?
[09:40] <N3O> MenZa , actually my download is not limitless. also i have the cd right now.
[09:40] <cabaro> melik: install ubutntu from that cd then run sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[09:41] <MenZa> bullgard4: Try #launchpad
[09:41] <Buckie> grawity, the problem is that I want to run a script every minute, so i figure out it must be like 5 stars - when i exit vim and checks with crontab - l it tells me there is "no crontab for user"
[09:41] <MenZa> N3O: Ah, that explains it.
[09:41] <N3O> cabaro,  this gives me some dependency error.
[09:41] <grawity> Buckie: How are you editing the crontab?
[09:41] <bullgard4> MenZa: I will. Thank you.
[09:41] <lstarnes> Buckie: what vim command are you using when you exit?
[09:41] <Buckie> grawity, with vim and pico
[09:41] <grawity> Buckie: What _command_?
[09:42] <N3O> MenZa ,  can you please tell me the steps. from add my cdrom as repo to install kde.
[09:42] <Buckie> crontab -e it runs pico
[09:42] <lstarnes> Buckie: it's likely nano instead of pico
[09:42] <ectospasm> Buckie: depends on what $EDITOR or $VISUAL are
[09:42] <cabaro> n3o: what gives an dependency error?
[09:42] <ectospasm> ...I can't stand pico, so I set mine to vim
[09:42] <grawity> Buckie: Hmm. How are you exiting the editor? Does it really save the file? Can you check /var/spool/cron? (It's actually nano, not pico, but that doesn't matter.)
[09:43] <MenZa> N3O: I'm afraid I'm not sure. Have a look at System -> Administration -> Software Sources
[09:44] <Yondering> anyone playing with the 9.10 netbook remix beta?  I seem to be lacking /boot/grub/menu.lst, wondering what's changed that I should be looking for now..

[09:44] <SUPEROGT> Hi, i've installed 9.10 and looks good, with some minor issues, but one thing is bothering me is that i can't use my madwifi drivers. I blacklisted ath5k and ath9k, patched and compiled but nothing. I do that usualli on 9.04 without problems even on kernel updates. Any idea about this ?
[09:45] <N3O> MenZa ok then ?
[09:45] <grawity> Buckie: Well, sudo cat /var/spool/cron/crontabs/$USER
[09:45] <MenZa> SUPEROGT: Generally, you don't want madwifi, you *want* ath5k. Try #ubuntu+1, however - this is only for 6.06 - 9.04.
[09:45] <eepberries> anybody know how i can use xrandr to change the resolution at the login screen? the video mode for my monitor is set incorrectly
[09:45] <MenZa> SUPEROGT: Protip: madwifi is ancient and deprecated.
[09:46] <daivana> mount: can't find DVNFTCD1.ISO01.ISO in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[09:46] <daivana> what does it mena?
[09:46] <SUPEROGT> oh thanks MenZa and no, i don't want ath5k, don't works fine for me.
[09:46] <lstarnes> daivana: what full command are you using?
[09:46] <Buckie> grawity, no such file or directory
[09:46] <daivana> oh :)
[09:46] <daivana> sudo mount -o -loop DVNFTCD1.ISO01.ISO
[09:47] <daivana> oh my fould
[09:47] <daivana> fault
[09:47] <lstarnes> daivana: -o loop, not -o -loop
[09:47] <lstarnes> daivana: and you need a mount point for it
[09:47] <MenZa> daivana: Also, you're missing a target.
[09:47] <daivana> how dfo I asing a target?
[09:47] <cabaro> daivana: wrong path to the iso file.  mount -o loop /path/to/isofile /mnt/folderYouMade
[09:47] <daivana> thank you
[09:47] <sam2> I am using internal modem(PCI card), but i can't see /dev/modem .why?
[09:48] <janrou> Are you the coaching ubuntu cool guy 8-) that helps me getting sound on flash videoes in firefox 3.0.14, ubuntu 9.04?
[09:48] <lstarnes> janrou: which flash plugin are you using?
[09:48] <janrou> Istarnes: adobe
[09:49] <grawity> sam2: It might be a so-called "Winmodem" - a quite dumb card which makes the Windows drivers do everything... Cheap to produce, but hard to use in Linux.
[09:49] <lstarnes> janrou: try this: go to system > preferences > sound and change everything to use PulseAudio Sound Server (except the last option involving hardware mixers)
[09:49] <eepberries> can somebody tell me if this xorg.conf file looks good? i'm trying to force xorg to use a certain resolution but it doesn't seem to be working http://pastebin.com/m36c538f
[09:50] <grawity> sam2: If it isn't, check for /dev/ttyS* - that's how serial ports are presented. And internal modems, I think, are connecting through a virtual serial port, or something like that.
[09:50] <janrou> Istarnes: PulseAudio server do not produce sound, we better go p2p chatting, because I have followed the most relevant procedurs I could find.
[09:51] <conb123> What stage is karmic in at the moment?
[09:51] <MenZa> conb123: Beta. Brokenly.
[09:51] <sebsebseb> conb123: Beta
[09:51] <lstarnes> conb123: beta; ask in #ubuntu+1 for further info
[09:51] <Buckie> grawity, the file it edit when i run crontab -e is /tmp/crontab.iUijs0/crontab
[09:51] <paipimenta> BOO YA!  I just manually deleted and remade (hence resized) my LVM partition by one cylinder!
[09:51] <lstarnes> janrou: are you runnig anything else that uses sound when you try to view videos in firefox?
[09:51] <lstarnes> *running
[09:51] <Primefalcon> conb123: first stage beta actualy went into beta on the second I think
[09:51] <conb123> MenZa: So it wouldn't be worth me grabbing it from update-manager just yet?
[09:52] <paipimenta> and the beginning did not start on a cylinder boundary..... CRAPPY!
[09:52] <grawity> Buckie: When you close $EDITOR, 'crontab' is supposed to check that file's syntax and move it to the right place.
[09:52] <raven> hello - i need some help to record from a dv-cam please.... tnx
[09:52] <MenZa> conb123: Depends if you feel like testing it. It runs alright for me, and it seems to for most people, but bear in mind it is *not* a production release.
[09:52] <cabaro> buckie: thats a temp file
[09:52] <Buckie>  grawity ahh, so ctrl + z is a bad idea ?
[09:52] <janrou> Istarnes: no! The flash video shows up perfectly but without sound.
[09:52] <grawity> Buckie: Yep
[09:52] <Buckie> lol
[09:52] <El_joker> Hi
[09:53] <lstarnes> janrou: even with everything set to use pulseaudio?
[09:53] <Noun> im trying to get ipv6 to work on ubuntu but i cant ping my gateway or connect to irc
[09:53] <conb123> MenZa: Right yeah, how long until it is released, they bring out a new one every like 6 months or something isn't it?
[09:53] <Buckie> grawity, still dont work though
[09:53] <grawity> Noun: How are you setting it up?
[09:53] <MenZa> October 29th, conb123 - and yes, there's a new release out every six months, co-inciding with GNOME's release cycle.
[09:53] <lstarnes> conb123: 9.10 = 10th month of 2009
[09:54] <conb123> Ok then i think i shall wait until the 29th then thanks guys
[09:54] <lstarnes> conb123: wait until a few days afterwards or you will have slow downloading from the mirrirs
[09:54] <lstarnes> *mirrors
[09:54] <einand> anyone running kermic and firefox 3.5 here?
[09:54] <conb123> lstarnes: i usually use the torrent
[09:54] <janrou> Why should I use the PulseAudio Server, when it does not produce any test sound in System|Preference|Sound?
[09:54] <lstarnes> einand: #ubuntu+1 is for questions about karmic
[09:55] <MenZa> einand: Several. Even more in #ubuntu+1, which is where you should be asking about Karmic :)
[09:55] <lstarnes> janrou: use it anyway and see if it works with flash
[09:55] <lstarnes> janrou: if it doesn't, then switch back to the settings you had before
[09:55] <einand> lstarnes and MenZa tnx
[09:55] <Buckie> grawity, I know what i did wrong now :$
[09:55] <Ali_nz11> how do you work out what graphics chipset you are using? and is it better to install a driver or will the default be just as good?
[09:56] <Buckie> grawity, thx for the help
[09:56] <Gnea> Ali_nz11: lspci | grep VGA
[09:56] <cabaro> ali_nzll: lspci
[09:56] <Ali_nz11> ok- and driver?
[09:56] <janrou> I have just forund a PulseAudio set up, where nothing is set up. Do I have set it to grant access to firefox allowing it send sounddat to the sound hardware?
[09:56] <daivana> how d oyou unmount?\

[09:59] <cabaro> daivana: use sudo.. sudo umount /path/
[09:59] <lstarnes> daivana: sudo umount /mnt/cdrom
[09:59] <daivana> it wont unmount it :/
[09:59] <Dr_Willis> close all out all apps accessing it also.
[09:59] <N3O> grawity ok then ?
[10:00] <janrou> Istarnes: I'll give it the 1001 try ...
[10:00] <sam2> In case of internal modem(PCI card),which is /dev file. /dev/modem or /dev/ttys0 or /dev/ttyACM0 or /dev/ttyl0 ?

[10:02] <cabaro> to see which files are open
[10:03] <daivana> for the future thanks
[10:03] <cabaro> like.. lsof | grep /usr/bin
[10:04] <paipimenta> how would I search for manual entries with regular expressions?
[10:04] <_21h_> after upgrade to 910 i see some bugs. if switch desktop resolution to 1280x1024 all icons and wallpaper hiding, but if i made 1024x768 all works fine. anybody knows how ti fix this?
[10:04] <paipimenta> like if I want to search for something like pextents, I could search for *ext*
[10:05] <Guest20123> oh
[10:05] <mrfelton> Hi
[10:05] <Dr_Willis> _21h_:  see #ubuntu+1 for 9.10 issues
[10:05] <grawity> paipimenta: recursive grep on /usr/share/man?
[10:05] <Guest20123> ...
[10:05] <mrfelton> I've been running Wirishark to try and work out why my network is being so crappy...
[10:06] <ubuntistas> does anybody know how can i  to connect to internet via bluetooth or wi-fi from my cellphone?
[10:06] <mrfelton> One thing I have noticed is continuall traffic using the SSDP service
[10:06] <Guest20123> cellphone?
[10:06] <mrfelton> It seems to be coming from my router
[10:06] <mrfelton> anyone know about this?
[10:06] <N3O> grawity, W: Skipping non-exisiting file /cdrom/dists/jaunty/main/binary-i386/Packages
[10:07] <N3O> grawity gives me that when i give sudo apt-cdrom add
[10:07] <grawity> mrfelton: SSDP is something UPnP-related, I think. You could disable it in the router's configuration (but it's sometimes useful for automatic port forwarding)
[10:08] <daivana> what is the temrinal comand to create folder in a fodler with permissions
[10:08] <bullgard4> I run Windows Selector to move Firefox 3.5.3 to another workspace. Now my computer is frozen. Only I could move the mouse cursor. But clicking on any button has no effect. Ctrl+Alt+F1 has no effect.  What "project" or package should I attribute to my Launchpad bug report? What log schould I attach?
[10:08] <daivana> I know I have to ise google but you guys are faster ; D:D
[10:09] <lstarnes> daivana: mkdir is usually used for making directories
[10:09] <daivana> thank you
[10:09] <RadJohn> Is the ATI Radeon X1300 video card able to run on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Hardy Heron)?
[10:10] <paipimenta> grawity: what would the pattern be fore that?
[10:10] <paipimenta> grawity: *ext* in regex form
[10:10] <RadJohn> Anyone know anything about installing a Radeon X1300 video card on Hardy?
[10:11] <paipimenta> grep -r /*ext*/ /usr/share/man
[10:11] <peterretief> anyone got Native Client in Chrome working
[10:11] <ubuntistas> does anybody know how can i  to connect to internet via bluetooth or wi-fi from my cellphone?
[10:11] <cabaro> :       /(ext)/
[10:11] <lstarnes> peterretief: try man -k ext
[10:11] <grawity> paipimenta: grep -r 'ext' /usr/share/man
[10:11] <grawity> paipimenta: Or, egrep -r '[^ ]ext[^ ]'
[10:12] <paipimenta> if I can find this out..... I'll be able to manually adjust my partition table, and move my whole LVM partition snug up against my 50Meg /boot
[10:12] <paipimenta> what's the [^ ] part?
[10:12] <lstarnes> peterretief: no space
[10:13] <peterretief> lstarnes: thank
[10:13] <peterretief> s
[10:13] <Ali_nz11> when I add a user and login I get No Directory, logging in with HOME=/ - how do I fix this?
[10:13] <lstarnes> Ali_nz11: you might need to specify a home directory for that user
[10:14] <cabaro> ali_nzzl: nano /etc/passwd
[10:14] <Ali_nz11> lstarnes: when createing the user?
[10:14] <Ali_nz11> cabaro: yep - and then?
[10:14] <bigmack83> karmic!
[10:14] <lstarnes> Ali_nz11: yes
[10:14] <cwickert> how to search several 'products' in launchpad, e.g. all Xfce related bugs although these are more than 20 packages?
[10:14] <lstarnes> Ali_nz11: or with usermod or another account info modifier
[10:14] <bigmack83> is there a room for talking about karmic, or is this room alright?
[10:15] <lstarnes> bigmack83: #ubuntu+1
[10:15] <bigmack83> thanks
[10:15] <cabaro> /etc/passwd has the home folder in the syntax
[10:15] <lstarnes> cabaro: /etc/passwd shouldn't be edited directly
[10:16] <cabaro> yah :)
[10:16] <Ali_nz11> so something like useradd user -d user
[10:16] <Prohibited> Ubuntu torrents ftw
[10:16] <Prohibited> 340kb/s
[10:16] <lstarnes> Ali_nz11: -d /home/user
[10:17] <grawity> Prohibited: kb or kB?
[10:17] <Prohibited> kilo bytes
[10:17] <rsk> not bits?
[10:17] <Prohibited> no, not bits lol
[10:17] <grawity> b = bit, B = byte.
[10:17] <Prohibited> fine then
[10:17] <grawity> mb = millibit.
[10:17] <Prohibited> kB/s
[10:18] <Prohibited> d= now my upload is going higher
[10:18] <Prohibited> 30kb/s
[10:18] <Ali_nz11> what about -m?
[10:19] <rsk> what about him
[10:19] <cabaro> grawity: millibit :) almost a bit, actually one thousand of a bit but not really. This should work on a lot of true/false statements
[10:19] <lstarnes> Ali_nz11: that will make the home directory if ir doesn't exist already
[10:19] <lstarnes> *it
[10:19] <Ali_nz11> hmmm, type useradd user -d /home/user -p password
[10:20] <Ali_nz11> it creates the user but wont accept the password?
[10:20] <Prohibited> #ubuntu+1 I think
[10:20] <Prohibited> meh i accidently scrolled up, saw old chat.
[10:22] <Ali_nz11> grrrr, I am still getting No Directory logging in with home
[10:23] <lstarnes> Ali_nz11: use useradd user -d /home/user -m -p password
[10:24] <Ali_nz11> lstarnes: ok
[10:24] <qbll> 请问下ubuntu里面安装nvidia tnt2显卡怎么装不上?要怎么才能装上
[10:24] <Ali_nz11> thanks - that worked
[10:25] <Keiffer> Hi. Do you recommend using the 64bit version of Ubuntu? Do I have access tho all apps in 32bit version?
[10:26] <lstarnes> Keiffer: there may be some minor compatibility issues, but almost everything in the 32-bit version works in the 64-bit version
[10:27] <qbll> 32-bit version
[10:29] <lucho> ·lixt
[10:29] <lucho> hola
[10:30] <paipimenta> anyone know how I can view exactly which physical extents my logical volumes are taking up? I've done it before, a pre-pvmove command
[10:30] <qbll> how I setup nvidia tnt2
[10:31] <qbll> who is know?
[10:32] <raven> where can i change the passwords on a ssh-server-system? i cannot login to this....
[10:33] <Keiffer> Another question. Gnome or KDE?
[10:33] <lstarnes> raven: do you have physical access to the system?
[10:33] <lstarnes> Keiffer: that is personal preference
[10:33] <raven> yes
[10:33] <Dr_Willis> Keiffer:  install them both.. try them both.
[10:33] <jamieleshaw> Hello, does bluetooth work out of box with ubuntu on eee pc 1005Ha-H:
[10:33] <lstarnes> raven: if you can physically access it, you can use passwd from a terminal on it
[10:33] <Keiffer> Dr_willis, both on the same Ubuntu?
[10:33] <lstarnes> Keiffer: yes
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> Keiffer:  yes.. that doable...
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> Keiffer:  install the ubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop packages.. you may wan tto try  xubuntu-desktop also
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> did i miss any other -desktops we got now?
[10:34] <Guest97505> hi
[10:34] <Keiffer> xubuntu is xcfe?
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> Keiffer:  or try out the live desktop cd's and see what you like
[10:34] <qbll> yes
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> xubuntu - xfce  yes.
[10:35] <alibaba_> има ли българи тук за помощ ?
[10:35] <jamieleshaw> Dr_Willis, yes you forgot mythbuntu-desktop
[10:35] <Guest97505> ls *ubuntu*
[10:35] <raven> lstarnes, i do not understand what's goning on here the user has no password any more and also with root i cannot login with the given password.... anything does not work here...
[10:35] <Dr_Willis> jamieleshaw:  well thats more of a speciality :)
[10:36] <jamieleshaw> Dr_willis heheheh
[10:36] <nancy> hi
[10:36] <lstarnes> raven: it might require public-key authentication, but you'll have to check the configuration of the ssh server for that
[10:36] <raven> ok where can i do this on the server?
[10:36] <indus> Amaranth, hi
[10:37] <lstarnes> raven: look at /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[10:37] <raven> ok tnx
[10:37] <lstarnes> raven: it likely allows password authentication unless you changed it to not allow it
[10:37] <indus> anyone know how to restore grub with alternate cd
[10:39] <jamieleshaw> Hello, does bluetooth work out of box with ubuntu on asus eee pc 1005HA-H
[10:39] <banisterfiend> anyone else here really really lagged?
[10:39] <Keiffer> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/kdegnome
[10:39] <Keiffer> so the differences are entirely based on appereance and style-of-use?
[10:39] <Keiffer> between DEs?
[10:40] <lstarnes> Keiffer: the cores are different too
[10:40] <Dr_Willis> Keiffer:  they are very differnt in many ways.  go track down  a live cd for both and test them, both out
[10:40] <lstarnes> Keiffer: kde uses qt for widgets while gnome and xfce use gtk
[10:40] <raven> lstarnes,
[10:40] <Dr_Willis> Keiffer:  or just install both then select the one to try out at the login window.
[10:40] <raven> empty password does not work as like as the root login..... i do not why...
[10:40] <lucho> hola hola
[10:40] <Keiffer> This won't affect my system performances?
[10:41] <raven> lstarnes, do i have to restart the ssh-server?
[10:41] <lstarnes> raven: by default, sshd does not allow root loins
[10:41] <lstarnes> *logins
[10:41] <Keiffer> I really need a stable environment but also i want to learn some new stuff
[10:41] <lstarnes> raven: configuration changes usually require a restart
[10:41] <raven> lstarnes, i changed do yes
[10:41] <lstarnes> raven: so try sudo invoke-rc.d sshd restart
[10:41] <raven> ok tnx
[10:42] <Guest57607> hello from france
[10:42] <Dr_Willis> Keiffer:  then track down a kubuntu live cd and test out kubuntu,  and see if you like it.
[10:43] <raven> lstarnes, "invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/ssht not found" strange thing here....
[10:43] <lstarnes> raven: sshD, not sshT
[10:43] <lstarnes> raven: lowercase
[10:43] <lucho> ha desapaercido la lista de nicks
[10:43] <raven> oh right
[10:43] <BlouBlou> !es > lucho
[10:44] <msk> !hello
[10:44] <Guest57607> #ubuntu.fr
[10:44] <msk> !ubuntu
[10:44] <raven> lstarnes, "invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/ssht not found" strange thing here...
[10:44] <raven> sry
[10:44] <lstarnes> Guest57607: I think you want to use /join #ubuntu-fr
[10:44] <raven> same thing with sshd
[10:44] <grawity> raven: Try just 'ssh'
[10:45] <Guest47287> I have a problem with my nVidia GeForce 9500 on Ubuntu Hardy
[10:45] <Keiffer> Do you think that using Virtual Machines is good for me, wanting a good stable system and to test linuxes too?
[10:45] <lucho> tanks
[10:45] <raven> oh yes tnx - seems that i am still sleeping
[10:45] <axelvincent> hi
[10:45] <grawity> raven: Some distributions use 'sshd', others have 'ssh' for the script name
[10:45] <Dr_Willis> Keiffer:  virtualbox is rather easy to get going and  good to test things in.
[10:45] <Guest47287> the card looks installed, I have the NVIDIA splash at the boot and nvidia settings works
[10:46] <Guest47287> however compiz does not activate
[10:46] <soreau> Guest47287: If you would like to come to #compiz, we will help you get compiz working
[10:46] <Guest47287> if I call COMPIZ from command line it says "another windows manager is active"
[10:46] <lstarnes> Guest47287: compiz --replace
[10:46] <banisterfiend> !ping
[10:47] <Keiffer> Dr_Willis, good to know, thanks for the advice. Can I use it for daily Windows Apps? I need to work in Corel and Adobe apps.
[10:47] <Guest47287> I tried compiz replace but the screen gets funny, now window top
[10:47] <Guest47287> OK I try to join #compiz
[10:47] <Guest47287> ?
[10:48] <nightvisio> hi
[10:50] <Dr_Willis> Keiffer:  virtualbox can run windows..
[10:51] <lstarnes> Keiffer: there is also wine for some windoes apps
[10:51] <lstarnes> *window
[10:51] <lstarnes> oops, windows
[10:51] <ashford> I lost my sound (Realtek AC'97 onboard)
[10:52] <mrfelton> What is ubiquity? I notice it starts at boot... Do I need it?
[10:52] <trancefat> Hello
[10:52] <grawity> !info ubiquity
[10:52] <grawity> Hmmm.
[10:53] <grawity> That really shouldn't be starting on boot.
[10:53] <mrfelton> grawity: well, it's there in sysv-rc-conf
[10:53] <trancefat> I m having some trouble installing Ubuntu 9.04 on a relatively old computer(2005) but was upgraded last year with a new graphic card and some ram and hd space
[10:53] <mrfelton> set to start at levels 2, 3, 4 & 5
[10:54] <trancefat> i ve inserted the Ubuntu 9.04 CD and booted
[10:54] <trancefat> firstly the keyboard seems to hand at the selectionof Language
[10:54] <trancefat> and then after the 30 seconds are over
[10:54] <trancefat> the CD proceeds
[10:54] <trancefat> keyboard is not hung anymore
[10:55] <trancefat> but the CD stops at a page with a long list of messages like init:tty1 main process ended , respawning
[10:55] <trancefat> what could be wrong
[10:56] <mrfelton> grawity: I take it I can disable that then.. it seems to be some king of system installer
[10:56] <mrfelton> but, I already have the system installed!
[10:56] <emanux> how to setup ldap server?
[10:56] <ashford> I wonder if anyone else had audio difficulties.  I have a linux driver package (realtek-linux-audiopack) but it has manual instructions for installation that speak to modprobe.conf or conf.modules in /etc (there are no such files).
[10:56] <mrfelton> god knows why it runs as a service
[10:58] <ashford> join #ubuntu
[10:58] <eepberries> anybody know how i can use xrandr to change resolution at the login screen?
[10:59] <tjz> just a dumb question
[10:59] <tjz> do you use antivirus on your ubuntu?
[10:59] <tjz> :D
[10:59] <grawity> tjz: I don't, and I guess most people don't either.
[10:59] <trancefat> maybe everone s busy, i can come some other time, thanks anyways
[10:59] <lstarnes> !virus | tjz
[10:59] <tjz> i doubt there is any antivirus?
[11:00] <grawity> trancefat: Not really - they just don't know the answer.
[11:00] <lstarnes> tjz: there is clamav for some limited scanning for windows viruses
[11:00] <maniel> hi
[11:00] <lstarnes> tjz: unix-like systems (such as linux) may be affected by rootkits, which are another form of malware less prevalent than viruses
[11:00] <FloodBot3> !netsplit
[11:01] <tjz> is there some flood just now??
[11:01] <grawity> tjz: No, just a netsplit... some Freenode server has lost its connection temporarily.
[11:01] <SharpRain> netsplit mate :)
[11:02] <maniel> why apt wantw to replace my custom build packages [originals were segfaulting] with the same versions from repository [which doesn't work, that's why i've build them by my self]
[11:02] <maniel> *wants
[11:03] <Hasanibrahim1> hi everyone
[11:03] <banisterfiend> SharpRain, are you an aussie, mate?
[11:03] <lstarnes> maniel: apt has a preference for packages from the official repos
[11:03] <SharpRain> what is the best download manager with threading, downloading files in multiple chunks then putting it back together (forgot what that was called), proxy, authentication, and other support
[11:03] <SharpRain> and yes
[11:03] <tjz> is there a portable app for ubuntu?
[11:03] <SharpRain> I'm in australia
[11:03] <Hasanibrahim1> i need to install multiple monitor, how can i do it ?
[11:03] <lstarnes> maniel: you can use techniques like pinning to keep packages at a certain version
[11:03] <maniel> lstarnes: yeah, but version strings are the same
[11:03] <maniel> but it still wants the repo ones
[11:04] <tjz> is there a portable firefox browser for ubuntu?
[11:04] <SharpRain> what is the best download manager with threading, downloading files in multiple chunks then putting it back together (forgot what that was called), proxy, authentication, scheduling, and more?
[11:04] <Darkpudel> Hasanibrahim1 your graphiccard?
[11:04] <maniel> SharpRain: aria2
[11:04] <grawity> SharpRain: DownThemAll works quite nice.  You install linux for headless use. Can you do something so, you access this one from a modern, 4gb RAM, dual core computer and use some of this system's resources to make the first work via LAN?
[11:06] <disown> I'm looking for some info on how to do dev on ubuntu, i.e how to package, install, run, test, deinstall packages etc while developing. Any guides, tips?
[11:06] <Darkpudel> Hasanibrahim1 now "X Server Display Configuration", then at Configuration "TwinVIew"
[11:06] <DarkMage23032> I've downloaded Karmic through a FTP mirror and by torrenting it, both give me the error "Invalid or corrupted kernel"
[11:06] <lstarnes> Keiffer: I don't think so
[11:07] <lstarnes> DarkMage23032: expect karmic to break
[11:07] <lstarnes> DarkMage23032: it is still a beta
[11:07] <rsk> DarkMage23032: did you verify the burned cd's dm5?
[11:07] <rsk> er .. md5
[11:07] <DarkMage23032> rsk: Uh, no.
[11:07] <rsk> do it
[11:07] <HappyHobo> and don't burn at 52x
[11:07] <Hasanibrahim1> Darkpudel: thereis a button called "configure" :D
[11:07] <Slart> Keiffer: depending on what kind of work you want to offload..
[11:08] <Darkpudel> Hasanibrahim1 click on it!
[11:08] <HappyHobo> for an iso Slart I get bad results.
[11:08] <maniel> lstarnes: http://pastie.org/641125 you can see here that packages version's are the same, my packages are built from deb-src repo, but apt wants to replace it with packages from binary repo
[11:08] <Slart> Keiffer: if you're compiling stuff there are distributed compilers available, I think.. there might be other stuff available for other apps.. I don't think there is anything general for taking some of the work off the lighter machine though
[11:08] <anderson> Hello
[11:09] <anderson> i need help on wifi
[11:09] <Slart> HappyHobo: huh?
[11:09] <anderson> can any one guide ?
[11:09] <rsk> !ask | anderson
[11:09] <lstarnes> maniel: I'm not sure what to do in this situation.  someone else might know
[11:09] <Slart> !wifi | anderson
[11:09] <HappyHobo> you had to be there Slart
[11:09] <Hasanibrahim1> Darkpudel: i am sorry, i asked question incorrectly.
[11:09] <whois> !info Karmic
[11:09] <rsk> xDD
[11:09] <lstarnes> !karmic > whois
[11:09] <Keiffer> Slart, I don't need to do that. I was asking to see if that could be possible.
[11:09] <Hasanibrahim1> two monitors are working now correctly. but two of them are showing same screen
[11:10] <Hasanibrahim1> i need to use different Desks
[11:10] <raven> i cannot access to the ssh server what is going on here - no password is right
[11:10] <stefg> !dualgead | Hasanibrahim1
[11:10] <Slart> Keiffer: you could also have a look at some of the clustering software available..
[11:10] <stefg> !dualhead | Hasanibrahim1
[11:10] <rsk> raven: login to the machine locally and make sure the password is right
[11:10] <anderson> I upgraded to 9.10 and all of sudden m nt able to start wifi on my laptop. I cheked Hardware Drivers it sgows BroadCom =. Active but not in use!! M nt getting why
[11:11] <rsk> anderson: that's karmic, go to #ubuntu+1
[11:11] <stefg> !karmic | anders
[11:11] <raven> rsk it is
[11:11] <rsk> raven: cheked your config, so all ip's can connect?
[11:11] <lstarnes> raven: make sure that password authentication is allowed
[11:11] <rsk> and ye, that.
[11:11] <HappyHobo> so far karmic hasn't broken on me and I've been apt-get dist-upgrading the whole time
[11:12] <raven> rsk, lstarnes it always gives me "permission denied" at password command
[11:12] <raven> i do not know where to look here
[11:12] <Darkpudel> Hasanibrahim1, u have to click on Configure and either take TwinView or Seperate X-Screen; then restart ur X-Server
[11:12] <lstarnes> raven: /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[11:13] <lstarnes> raven: look for PasswordAuthentication
[11:13] <SharpRain> hmm
[11:13] <SharpRain> I installed aria2 through synaptic
[11:13] <SharpRain> but it's not here
[11:13] <SharpRain> typing aria2 in console says command not found
[11:13] <Keiffer> the thing is i have this old computer and i don't want to retire it. so, if anyone has any idea, it's welcomed
[11:13] <SharpRain> and it's not in applications
[11:13] <SharpRain> keffer: use as bomb
[11:14] <raven> #AuthorizedKeysFile	%h/.ssh/authorized_keys ?
[11:14] <raven> its enabled
[11:14] <stefg> Keiffer: tell about the specs
[11:14] <lstarnes> raven: no, PasswordAuthentication
[11:14] <rsk> Keiffer: donate to a good cause
[11:14] <SharpRain> So yeah, what do I do about this aria2 thing
[11:14] <raven> lstarnes, its "yes"
[11:15] <lstarnes> raven: what error do you get when attemtping to connect with a password?
[11:15] <raven> oh just a moment
[11:15] <mcmlxxi> !multiple monitors
[11:16] <raven> Permission denied, please try again.
[11:16] <SharpRain> How do I use aria2?
[11:16] <lstarnes> raven: that error makes no sense
[11:16] <SharpRain> Help

[11:16] <ABOANAS93> i want to increase my ubuntu space , how?
[11:16] <das_Urmel> hi, i'm using ubuntu 9.4 and have a internet connection via Lan. Now i would like to make the inet connection accessible to my imac via wlan. could any body tell me how. allready tried various things. i don't get it to work.
[11:16] <krzycho27> elo
[11:17] <lstarnes> raven: is that with root?
[11:17] <ABOANAS93> i want to increase my ubuntu space , how?
[11:17] <raven> with every user
[11:17] <rsk> ABOANAS93: buy new hdd
[11:18] <raven> ok i just diabled pw and now it says "Permission denied (publickey)."
[11:18] <lstarnes> raven: enable passwords
[11:18] <ABOANAS93> na , i have been installed it on 80 GB HD and i cant use any more than 10GB.
[11:18] <lstarnes> raven: pastebin your /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[11:18] <lstarnes> ABOANAS93: did you only give it a 10gb partition?
[11:18] <ABOANAS93> i used wubi.
[11:18] <SharpRain> aria2 looks bad
[11:19] <ABOANAS93> no , 80GB partition.
[11:19] <raven> lstarnes, do i have to edit the /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key or something like that?
[11:19] <lstarnes> raven: don't do anything with the keys
[11:19] <ABOANAS93> but in 80 i could only use 10 because of wubi installer.
[11:19] <stefg> ABOANAS93: BTW it's quite a stupid idea to chat as root
[11:20] <ABOANAS93> sorry
[11:20] <ABOANAS93> how did you know?
[11:21] <lstarnes> ABOANAS93: your user id in irc contains your nick, the username sent by your client, and your hostname/ip
[11:21] <stefg> ABOANAS93: you're making it obvious ...
[11:21] <lstarnes> ABOANAS93: most clients send your system login name as the username by default
[11:21] <ABOANAS93> no problem ubuntu is unhackaple.
[11:21] <Maxior> #ubuntu-pl
[11:21] <tjz2> hmm
[11:21] <Maxior> hi
[11:21] <lstarnes> ABOANAS93: only when you aren't root
[11:22] <Maxior> i have problem with ettercap
[11:22] <ABOANAS93> oh ,shit . bey
[11:22] <Maxior> forwarded (libnet_write_raw_ipv4(): -1 bytes written (Message too long)
[11:22] <stefg> ABOANAS93:  ubuntu is not easily hackable... but not idiot-proof
[11:22] <lstarnes> raven: try setting PermitEmptyPasswords to no
[11:23] <raven> oh i did previously it's been reset
[11:24] <raven> lstarnes still denied
[11:24] <lstarnes> raven: what do you get from this?: ps aux | grep sshd | grep -v grep
[11:25] <SharpRain> omg
[11:25] <happyhessian> i have a shockingly non-technical question for the channel: i have a relative who wants to switch to ubuntu from vista but he's worried about an outlook replacement--i don't really use any pim type software so i don't know what to tell him--what do people use in place of outlook on ubuntu and how good is it with fulfilling the same functions and with migrating from windows?
[11:25] <SharpRain> DownthemAll doesn't have support for a userrname/password
[11:25] <SharpRain> WHAT DOES?
[11:25] <grawity> SharpRain: Doesn't it?
[11:25] <SharpRain> NO.
[11:25] <lstarnes> SharpRain: caps
[11:26] <grawity> SharpRain: http://user:pass@host/path/
[11:26] <SharpRain> so I have to add that to the end
[11:26] <SharpRain> of a huge thing of rapidshare links
[11:26] <SharpRain> like 100's
[11:26] <SharpRain> that's cool.
[11:26] <SharpRain> not
[11:26] <FloodBot1> SharpRain: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:27] <lstarnes> SharpRain: you could use a short sed/perl script to add the user:pass to each
[11:27] <stefg> happyhessian: evolution, which is the default email/PIM client
[11:27] <SharpRain> ..
[11:27] <lstarnes> SharpRain: e.g. sed -i 's,http://,http://user:pass@,g' file.txt

[11:28] <stefg> !ics | das_Urmel
[11:28] <Keiffer> what virtualisation software do you recommend? virtualbox, vmware etc? i need to use windows apps in linux. wine is not a good alternative
[11:28] <happyhessian> are there any know problems migrating from outlook--contacts, etc,?
[11:28] <raven> lstarnes, root      4646  0.0  0.1   5436  1072 ?        Ss   12:23   0:00 /usr/sbin/sshd
[11:28] <Maxior> hi i have problem with ettercap
[11:28] <Maxior> more plugins can't be loaded
[11:28] <stefg> Keiffer: virtualbox for desktop use
[11:28] <James_T_Kirk> !rhythmbox
[11:28] <Nisha_> hey how can i install a new kernel without compiling?
[11:28] <Maxior> what is wrong ?
[11:29] <lstarnes> Keiffer: virtualbox and other virtual machines require a windows license and an installation of windows irself
[11:29] <das_Urmel> ubottu: thanks, i'll give that a try
[11:29] <lstarnes> *itse;f
[11:29] <lstarnes> bah
[11:29] <lstarnes> raven: I'm really not sure what is causing this stuff to happen
[11:29] <TLF> hello
[11:30] <TLF> it's there a way so I can configure ubuntu not to wipe /tmp every time I restart? Thanks
[11:30] <raven> me to...
[11:30] <Nisha_> hey how can i install a new kernel without compiling?
[11:30] <lstarnes> Nisha_: install a pre-build .deb package
[11:30] <[007aLinux]> stefg: ?
[11:30] <lstarnes> *pre-built
[11:30] <stefg> Nisha_: you don't
[11:30] <Nisha_> why?
[11:30] <grawity> TLF: Why do you need that?
[11:30] <[007aLinux]> stefg: It's login screen.
[11:30] <Nisha_> i just want to use a new kernel
[11:30] <lstarnes> Nisha_: generally, it is strongly recommended that you NOT use a different kernel
[11:31] <lstarnes> Nisha_: unless you upgrade to a newer version of ubuntu
[11:31] <TLF> grawity: I host some files there that I need until I delete them
[11:31] <Keiffer> lstarnes, what do you mean? can't i use virtual inside ubuntu and install windows?
[11:31] <[007aLinux]> grawity: Hello ,can you tell how to increase login screen resolution?
[11:31] <Nisha_> lstarnes: my sis graphic card and wireless driver is not working
[11:31] <stefg> [007aLinux]: please read the link first, then complain :-)
[11:31] <lstarnes> TLF: move them out of /tmp
[11:31] <grawity> [007aLinux]: I don't know.
[11:31] <grawity> TLF: mkdir /files
[11:31] <lstarnes> Keiffer: you can
[11:31] <TLF> but I don't want that
[11:31] <grawity> TLF: Or if you really really want, there's a script in /etc/init.d/ that does that.
[11:31] <stefg> !kernel | Nisha_
[11:31] <TLF> ok
[11:31] <lstarnes> TLF: /tmp is really meant for temporary files
[11:32] <lstarnes> TLF: you likely want /var instead of /tmp
[11:33] <Keiffer> lstarnes, and i can use a cracked iso of win, can i?
[11:33] <tjz2> if i switch to ubuntu desktop
[11:33] <tjz2> i don;t think i need putty anymore :D
[11:33] <lstarnes> Keiffer: you should only use a legal copy with a legal license
[11:33] <lstarnes> Keiffer: we do not advocate or allow piracy here
[11:33] <lstarnes> Keiffer: even if it is a product by microsoft
[11:33] <shrey> Pls help..after i used command pppoeconf my wifi is not detected.
[11:33] <stefg> TLF: according to the FHS /tmp is wiped at every reboot. files that need to survive a reboot go to /var/tmp

[11:35] <lstarnes> Keiffer: buy a copy of windows

[11:38] <Guest52695> hi
[11:39] <achilles> hello, I'm trying to rsync my directory to a remote NFS mounted directory, but rsync can't hold permissions, is there a way to avoid setting permissions, I saw the man page, can't get it
[11:39] <Enriquei> Anyone know of a music player that meets these requirements: Runs under gnome, can be remotely controlled via webgui, and has shoutcast support?
[11:39] <Guest52695> hi I decided to upgrade to 9.04, to be safe I am thinking to "cp -a" my home folder.
[11:40] <Guest52695> is that enough to save all my stuff and my main settings ?
[11:40] <stefg> achilles: although i can't give a direct answer to your question i'd recommend to look at rdiff-backup (some useful wrapper around rsync)
[11:40] <Guest52695> do you have better suggestions before an upgrade ?
[11:40] <stefg> !info rdiff-backup | achilles
[11:40] <Guest52695> I am starting from a hardy Ultimate Edition
[11:40] <shawn001> Guest52695, the -p tag will keep permissions
[11:41] <ikonia> Guest52695: ultimate edition is not an ubuntu release - it's not supported here
[11:41] <Guest52695> the -p tag is not included in the -a tag
[11:41] <achilles> stefg, thank you!
[11:41] <Guest52695> its very unstable
[11:41] <Guest52695> that's why I am moving away
[11:41] <ikonia> Guest52695: it's not an ubuntu product - it's nothing to do with ubuntu, it's not supported here
[11:41] <Guest52695> I didn't know that
[11:41] <shawn001>  cp -ap blah
[11:41] <Guest52695> OK thank you
[11:42] <grawity> tar cvzf home.tar.gz $HOME
[11:42] <shawn001> ^^ works too
[11:42] <Enriquei> hmmm no suggestions?
[11:42] <Guest52695> there is no way to save my programs istallations... I think.
[11:42] <ikonia> Guest52695: it's not supported here
[11:42] <ikonia> Guest52695: a clean install is the only way to gain support
[11:42] <grawity> Enriquei: I think mpd meets all three.
[11:43] <Madpilot> Guest52695, is your /home a seperate partition?
[11:43] <Enriquei> mpd?
[11:43] <Enriquei> link?
[11:43] <grawity> Enriquei: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/mpd
[11:43] <Enriquei> ty
[11:43] <dallix> I'm getting a CRC error on boot, that means I have to redownload the iso right?
[11:43] <grawity> Enriquei: mpd itself runs as a daemon, and to control it you use a 'client' - there are many for GNOME, KDE, terminal-based, web-based, and so on.
[11:43] <LexR> hey guys, anyone knows how to make gnome apps (synaptic) use kde decoration in kde4???
[11:43] <Madpilot> ubottu, info mpd |  Enriquei
[11:43] <linuxn_eo> I'm using hardy, and would like to install vlc 1.0.2. What repository do I need to add to do that (or do I need to do it by hand?)? How do I answer this type of question for myself in general?
[11:44] <grawity> Enriquei: For a nice GNOME client, install Sonata.
[11:44] <ikonia> linuxn_eo: if it's not in the ubuntu repo - it's not supported by ubuntu yet
[11:44] <Enriquei> will check out sonata
[11:44] <ikonia> linuxn_eo: you can search for 3rd party repo's but that is at your own risk and may cause you problems down the line
[11:44] <shawn001> how can i use the 'find' command to find all files with a given extension (*.deb) on a partition (in many directories) and move them to a single directory on another partition. tried this but didnt work: " find /media/thumb-drive -name "*.deb" -type f -exec cp *.deb /media/Files/backup/debs/ "
[11:44] <Enriquei> is it self-sufficient or is it a front end?
[11:44] <linuxn_eo> ikonia: it is: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/karmic-changes/2009-September/009605.html
[11:44] <ikonia> linuxn_eo: are you using karmic ?
[11:44] <linuxn_eo> ikonia: but it's only in for karmic, as far as I can see
[11:45] <Madpilot> linuxn_eo, 1.0.2 looks much newer than the version in Ubuntu currently - you might find a packaged version in a PPA, though
[11:45] <linuxn_eo> as I said, I'm using hardy
[11:45] <grawity> Enriquei: gmpc and ario are two more GNOME clients for mpd.
[11:45] <ikonia> linuxn_eo: ok - so it's not in your versions repository - so it's not supported for your OS yet
[11:45] <stefg> dallix: yes, the medium is damaged, but there are ways to avoid to have to download the full image again. zsync and bittorrent clients are able to checksum the file and correct the errors
[11:46] <Madpilot> linuxn_eo, probably best to upgrade - hardy->intrepid->jaunty then karmic when it's final late this month...
[11:46] <linuxn_eo> ikonia: hm - and there's no way to do it through backports or something?
[11:46] <stefg> dallix: what iso have you downloaded?
[11:46] <ikonia> linuxn_eo: it's not back ported yet - so no
[11:46] <Enriquei> thanks
[11:46] <linuxn_eo> Madpilot: easier said than done - this is a netbook with a very tiny disk
[11:46] <Madpilot> linuxn_eo, a reinstall w/ jaunty might be your best bet, then
[11:46] <linuxn_eo> if it were a normal pc, i would've already done that
[11:47] <linuxn_eo> Madpilot: I'd rather not reinstall for the sake of one feature in one media player.. :/
[11:47] <ikonia> linuxn_eo: package it yourself ? talk to the maintainer for a back port ?
[11:47] <Madpilot> linuxn_eo, you'll get an entirely updated OS along with that one feature, though :)
[11:48] <linuxn_eo> ikonia: I'll go the packaging it myself route; any tips on what pages I should read?
[11:48] <ikonia> linuxn_eo: the packaging guide on the wiki.ubuntu.com page
[11:48] <linuxn_eo> Madpilot: I was a gentoo user for 6 years, I've had enough of entirely updated OSs ;)
[11:48] <Madpilot> ubottu, compile |  linuxn_eo
[11:48] <Enriquei> got a link for sonata?
[11:48] <linuxn_eo> thanks; I'll read those links
[11:48] <Enriquei> grawity ^^
[11:48] <ikonia> Enriquei: you're asking for a lot of link, there are search engines available
[11:48] <Madpilot> linuxn_eo, updated Ubuntu still works, unlike what I've heard of chasing updates in Gentoo :)
[11:48] <grawity> Enriquei: All of them are in Ubuntu package manager.
[11:48] <grawity> !info sonata
[11:49] <lstarnes> bigmack83: find /media/cdrom -name "*.deb" -type f | xargs cp --target-directory=/media/Files/backup/var/cache/apt/
[11:49] <linuxn_eo> Madpilot: yes, usually; not always
[11:49] <Enriquei> thank you
[11:49] <linuxn_eo> I've had a few breakages with ubuntu updates before
[11:49] <ikonia> linuxn_eo: to a beta OS - yes, very much breaks a lot
[11:49] <cylex> anyone know how to use OpenLDAP with linux
[11:49] <ikonia> cylex: in what respect
[11:50] <grawity> Enriquei: In other words, 'sudo apt-get install mpd sonata gmpc ario ncmpc' in Terminal.
[11:50] <cylex> hooking up login to windows
[11:50] <stefg> dallix: a.) although you might have a fast line you are putting unnecessary load on ubuntu servers. b.) there is allready a newer nightly build available that you caould zsync
[11:50] <Enriquei> ill read up on them and give it a shot. Thank you for the leads grawity
[11:50] <ikonia> cylex: ok, so that's ldap + samba for that, maybe kerberos too
[11:51] <nie> irc.oz.org
[11:51] <cylex> yeah, I never got it to work
[11:51] <ikonia> nie: ?
[11:51] <bigmack83> lstarnes, ah a lifesaver. thanks
[11:51] <cylex> any good tutorial link for OpenLDAP + SAMBA
[11:52] <ikonia> cylex: there are tons on the net
[11:52] <ikonia> cylex: there are a few ubuntu specific ones on help.ubuntu.com - but they don't go that in depth and are quite a generic AD intergration
[11:53] <cylex> I wonder if you pay for the support they do it for you
[11:53] <cylex> lol
[11:53] <ikonia> cylex: canonical will, yes
[11:55] <cylex> heh cool

[11:56] <Maero_> Wesh
[11:56] <deeptz> can someone give me live cd/dvd  download link for karmic kaola....if mirror is in japan nothig good like it
[11:57] <linuxn_eo> so, there's no safe way to use packages from the karmic repo unless i'm using karmic, right?
[11:57] <ikonia> !mirrors
[11:57] <lstarnes> linuxn_eo: correcy
[11:57] <lstarnes> *correct
[11:57] <lv_> deeptz, sounds like you should wait till the final version is released :-P
[11:57] <deeptz> y
[11:57] <kmp> \hello
[11:57] <lv_> deeptz, i take it you are a newbie?
[11:57] <lstarnes> deeptz: the beta versions are not guaranteed to work
[11:58] <lstarnes> deeptz: only experienced ubuntu users should use beta versions of ubuntu
[11:58] <deeptz> im into linux admin realted work
[11:59] <deeptz> il istall the beta on my laptop for experiment
[11:59] <ikonia> deeptz: you have been given a link showing the server mirrors, I trust you know how to search them
[11:59] <deeptz> thks
[11:59] <ikonia> deeptz: you may also want to consider torrents
[11:59] <deeptz> i wanted live image link
[11:59] <deeptz> il check on above link
[11:59] <ikonia> deeptz: the install CD is the live cd
[11:59] <Briareos1> which is a good channel about shell scripting?
[12:00] <ikonia> Briareos1: depends on which shell you want to use, check the freenode channel list
[12:00] <lstarnes> Briareos1: #bash
[12:00] <eepberries> how can you tell what version of ubuntu you're running from the command line?
[12:00] <ikonia> eepberries: lsb_release -a
[12:00] <eepberries> thanks
[12:00] <deeptz> i use inibootin to burn it to a usb stick
[12:00] <ikonia> deeptz: that doesn't change anything
[12:01] <Briareos1> ty lstarnes
[12:01] <deeptz> somehow the cd image of KK did not work....it started by default installation
[12:01] <Briareos1> ty ikonia :)
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> deeptz: did you verify the image using MD5 checks?
[12:03] <Guest52695> dear all
[12:03] <luca> hi everyone
[12:03] <Guest52695> I am going to update to 9.04
[12:03] <deeptz> image boots well from usb ...however starts installation
[12:03] <luca> one package refuses to install saying, after download (apt-get or synaptic) that "dimensions do not match"
[12:03] <deeptz> i  want it to boot directly
[12:03] <Guest52695> I want to do a clean install
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> !karmic | deeptz
[12:03] <ikonia> Guest52695: you won't be supported, ultimate edition is not supported, a clean install is all that is supported
[12:03] <cylex> 9.04 expires in few months but yeah
[12:03] <pshr_> does any one give a damn if i am happy ?
[12:04]  * pshr_ :P
[12:04] <ikonia> pshr_: that is offtopic for this channel
[12:04] <Guest52695> however I am planning to backup my home folder
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> Guest52695: keep it on one line, makes it easier to read so we dont have to scroll to piece together you issue
[12:04] <ikonia> pshr_: the topic of this channel is ubuntu support only, please stick to it
[12:04] <pshr_> he he knew it ^_^
[12:04] <Guest52695> OK
[12:04] <rob__F> Greetings all...
[12:04] <yakoza> hi
[12:04] <yakoza> i have a problem with pidgin
[12:04] <yakoza> i wanna install it from source
[12:04] <GSF1200S> ssh is awesome'
[12:05] <ikonia> Guest52695: some of those settings maybe specific to ultimates configuration, I advise you not to do it
[12:05] <yakoza> but i get this error
[12:05] <ikonia> yakoza: what problem do you have with pidgin
[12:05] <GSF1200S> im writing this from a windows netbook when xchat is only installed on my linux desktop
[12:05] <cylex> ikonia: you happen to know where I can download the full source code of ubuntu
[12:05] <[BIOS]Hrishi> saddas
[12:05] <ikonia> yakoza: why do you not want to use the version ubuntu developers packaged it for you
[12:05] <cylex> just for the hell of it
[12:05] <yakoza> ikonia : http://paste.ubuntu.com/285321/
[12:05] <ikonia> vega-: the ubuntu repositories
[12:05] <Guest52695> I am thinking to update to 9.04. Start from Hardy. I am planning to "cp -ap" all my home folder. My question is if this is enough to savely recover all my settings?
[12:05] <[BIOS]Hrishi> CAN NE1 SEE WHAT I TYPE??!?!!!
[12:05] <cylex> link plz
[12:06] <pshr_> [BIOS]Hrishi, yes
[12:06] <ikonia> Guest52695: what part of "not supported" am I not being clear with
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> GSF1200S: fun isnt it, you can also transfer files securely using winscp
[12:06] <[BIOS]Hrishi> THANK U DIDIOT !!!!!!
[12:06] <lv_> didiot i like that one
[12:06] <Nalkem> hello
[12:06] <pshr_> didiot ??
[12:07] <linuxn_eo> good news, looks like i don't need to compile: https://launchpad.net/~c-korn/+archive/vlc
[12:07] <GSF1200S> ActionParsnip, haha, yeah, done that as well. Did that and putty, and then Xming and x11 forwarding on the windows netbook. Will be moving to ubuntu once released though
[12:07] <Guest52695> I do not understand what Ikonia means. Sorry.
[12:07] <Nalkem> i switch my intallation from opensuse to ubuntu. now i've some problems with my encrypted filesystems. i cannot decrypt them anymore, ubuntu say: Error: Password must be at least 20 characters. ... with the old version of opensuse it works (aes 256)
[12:07] <ikonia> Guest52695: you are not using an ubuntu install, upgrading, or backing up settings from ubuntu ultimate edition is not a clean install
[12:07] <Guest52695> I see
[12:08] <fc> selam millet
[12:08] <yakoza> ikonia: i don't have high speed connection and i can't download from repository
[12:08] <GSF1200S> ssh is crazy. I can browse the internet at home when im somewhere with my netbook, and noone would be the wiser
[12:08] <GSF1200S> helps alot when you have a strict college network policy
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> GSF1200S: its good fun, you can use many thin clients and do what you are doing to make system deployment VERY easy :D
[12:09] <GSF1200S> thin clients?
[12:09] <Guest52695> you mean if I copy all my home folder to newly installed 9.04, I can affect 9.04? Probably you are right. All the .xsomething files may be different in Ultimate Edition.
[12:09] <Guest52695> OK
[12:09] <GSF1200S> have to look it up...
[12:09] <vega-> ikonia: what?
[12:09] <Guest52695> OK I will copy only the documents and reconfigure what I will have to reconfigure
[12:10] <ikonia> vega-: ?
[12:10] <ikonia> Guest52695: sounds better
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> Guest52695: you will need to chown the files to the new username (even if its identically named). Ultimate is not supported here as it is not an official release
[12:10] <vega-> 14:05 < ikonia> vega-: the ubuntu repositories
[12:10] <GSF1200S> ActionParsnip, holy crap! Thats amazing!!
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> Guest52695: you may want to back up your /etc folder too
[12:10] <PJi> hi a tous
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> GSF1200S: ?
[12:10] <Guest52695> thanks, I see. I didn'T KNOW. Thx,
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> !ultimate | Guest52695
[12:10] <GSF1200S> ActionParsnip, using a thin client deployment
[12:11] <ikonia> pshr_: please join #ubuntu-ops
[12:11] <pw-toxic> hi, i have installed lm-sensors and i get 3 temperatures, but i dont konw what they mean.. i want to know for what parts of my computer the temperatures are
[12:11] <pw-toxic> i'd like to know the temperature of my processor
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> GSF1200S: yes, if yuo have many you will benefit from a gigabit LAN, then the users can simply launch an SSH connection and run the apps on the server, again if there are many you wil need a beefy server to handle
[12:12] <GSF1200S> ActionParsnip, indeed. I didnt even know that was possible..
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> GSF1200S: new systems can simply be dropped in and need very little in the way of config
[12:12] <GSF1200S> ActionParsnip, I can imagine...
[12:12] <Guest52695> OK I will backup also /etc
[12:13] <jimbeam12> hye all wsup
[12:13] <pshr_> !hi | jimbeam12
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> Guest52695: it contains smb.conf sources.list xorg.conf etc
[12:13] <PJi> i gess i'm not in the right place for what i want! bye
[12:13] <rob__F> Has anyone installed 9.04 on an external/USB drive in a dual boot with Win XP?
[12:13] <jimbeam12> wats new today?
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> GSF1200S: so if you folks want a PC for web browsing, you can buy a thin client instead and use your PCs power (as long as it isnt a low power system itself)
[12:15] <stefg> rob__F: that is possible, but be prepared for issues with the bootloader. That will be a bit tricky to set up
[12:15] <Tarthen> Hello
[12:15] <rob__F> stefg!!!  Thank you!!! Then it's NOT just me!!!
[12:15] <jimbeam12> hey actionparsnip
[12:15] <rob__F> Grub is being a major problem...
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> hi jimbeam12
[12:16] <Tarthen> I installed Karmic Beta last night, and bootchart, and I have a 1:15 boot time. What happened?
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> !karmic | Tarthen
[12:16] <GSF1200S> ActionParsnip, Not a bad idea. I got an i7 system with plenty of storage space, so that would work well
[12:16] <jimbeam12> just the usual action ...drinking bourbon and coke..heheh
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> GSF1200S: lots of ram, nippy HDD?
[12:16] <stefg> rob__F: the bootloader will install itself in the mbr of the internal disk, and look for it's config files on the external. so if you disconnect the external hd, you box won't boot
[12:17] <GSF1200S> ActionParsnip, 6GB DDR3 1600mhz, 2 TB 7200RPM RAID 0
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> GSF1200S: that'll be fine
[12:18] <raven> hi... i cannot format a partition with gparted and mkfs.ext3 , both tells me "system is using this partition" - what's going on here???
[12:18] <GSF1200S> Could up to 12 in the future if necessary on the ram
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> raven: the partition is mounted
[12:18] <rob__F> stefg:  I disconnected the internal HD when I installed it yesterday...and then reconnected it when I went to boot the new installation from the external and still no go..
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> GSF1200S: see how it runs, only upgrade if yuo have to
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> raven: run: mount     you can then umount the partition
[12:18] <GSF1200S> ActionParsnip, Yeah
[12:18] <raven> ActionParsnip, no it has no files-system and has just been partitioned
[12:19] <stefg> rob__F: so what happens exactly ?
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> raven: or you can run: lsof | grep <partition name>    e.g    lsof | grep sd3
[12:20] <rob__F> stefg: the latest scenario is that when I use a live CD...I can see that I have successfully installed 9.04 to the external drive (eg., all the files are there), but when I force the puter to boot from that drive (after reconnecting the internal), the puter just "hangs"...
[12:21] <Guest31978> need help with rtl8187se wireless card if anyone can help
[12:21] <raven> ActionParsnip, ok.... trying to mount it tells me "linux raid member" i thought it got a new filetable and this were deleted!!??
[12:21] <cgroza> hello,witch personal firewall is the best for home Pc's?
[12:21] <rob__F> In any event, I just thought I'd stop in...and I may very well be back later today in my continuing attempts to get this fixed...
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> raven: i'd mess with the partition in a liveCD desktop, then you know its not in use
[12:22] <lstarnes> cgroza: for ones running ubuntu?
[12:22] <cgroza> lstarnes,yes
[12:22] <stefg> rob__F: to diagnose that you would need to have both disks connected and boot with a Live CD and join here when in the Live-CD environment
[12:22] <ikonia> cgroza: I have no issue with iptables
[12:22] <lstarnes> cgroza: iptables and ufw are installed by default
[12:22] <lloowen> Hello what is the standard vnc client that comes with Ubuntu version 9.0.4? What port does it use?
[12:22] <lstarnes> cgroza: graphical frontends include firestarter and gufw
[12:22] <raven> ActionParsnip, this is an extra drive - gparted made a new partition table (it told me) but still there seems to be any data from raid
[12:23] <cgroza> lstarnes,thanks to all...
[12:23] <rob__F> stefg: k...tks...as I say, I'm sure I'll be back later today
[12:23] <Guest31978> after a clean install of 9.04 it has the wrong wireless driver installed anyone have any idea how to remove and install correct driver?
[12:23] <stefg> lloowen: vinagre , 5900
[12:23] <imyousuf> Hi! I am using Dell Studio 14z with Jaunty and I am having a strange problem :(, when I start my PC my keyboard and mouse on board the laptop does not seem to work :(, but if I attach a USB keyboard and mouse they work fine. Then if I restart my laptop manually several times the onboard keyboard/mouse works :(. Any idea how I can diagnose the problem and fix it? Some related info - http://gist.github.com/201310
[12:24] <lloowen> Thanks. Is that the one that uses the remote desktop link in the menu
[12:25] <raven> ActionParsnip, fdisk does not do anything else - how to delete theese raid-settings???
[12:26] <cgroza> lstarnes,gufw settings are "deny incoming trafic....this is normal?
[12:26] <stefg> imyousuf: do you have another box that you could use to ssh into the laptop when the mouse/keyboard is not workung?
[12:26] <lstarnes> cgroza: yes
[12:26] <lstarnes> cgroza: you may disable that if you want
[12:26] <cgroza> lstarnes,this means i cant download or what...?
[12:26] <ikonia> cgroza: it's up to you how you set it
[12:26] <imyousuf> yes stefg, but now :(
[12:26] <ikonia> cgroza: no - it means people can't make incoming connections to your machine
[12:26] <lstarnes> cgroza: it blocks incoming connections
[12:26] <lstarnes> cgroza: but not data sent to you on connections coming from you
[12:26] <imyousuf> stefg: what should I do when I get the second machine?
[12:27] <unoobtu> hi all.. i got a little problem with samba
[12:27] <jo_> hello, everyone, I've searched this for ages, tried everything but I have still crappy video playback in jaunty. Not in VLC do, but in the other players and flash video's. Do you guy's have any expirience with that?
[12:27] <cgroza> lstarnes,so my torrent downloads are not affected?
[12:27] <lstarnes> cgroza: they likely will be due to torrents being p2p
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> !raid | raven
[12:27] <lstarnes> cgroza: which requires connections both to you and from you
[12:27] <hanshenrik> how can i get a list of all.. logical drivers (or what its called) in console?
[12:27] <hanshenrik> drives*
[12:28] <WOLKARIX> can anyone tell me how to connect relience netconnect in 9.04
[12:28] <stefg> imyousuf: install openssh-server on the laptop and then reboot the laptop until keybaord/mouse fail again. the use the other box to ssh into the laptop to diagnose waht is wrong
[12:28] <cgroza> lstarnes,il set it to allow incoming trafic...
[12:28] <eepberries> what should i set as refresh rates for a standard analog TV?
[12:28] <unoobtu> i'm sharing my cdrom with that piece in smb.conf: [cdrom]
[12:28] <unoobtu>    comment = Samba server's CD-ROM
[12:28] <unoobtu>    read only = yes
[12:28] <unoobtu>    locking = no
[12:28] <unoobtu>    path = /cdrom
[12:28] <FloodBot1> unoobtu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:28] <unoobtu>    guest ok = yes
[12:29] <stefg> imyousuf: and check for a new bios/firmware
[12:29] <imyousuf> stefg: how do I diagnose it? I mean what should be my procedure of doing it? + as I mentioned then the USB keyboards work, so will using that also help?
[12:29] <unoobtu> but from the windows machine i see an empty cdrom folder.. if put /media/ instead /cdrom i see a folder with the cdrom name but other non-useful stuff too
[12:30] <stefg> imyousuf: ah, ok, so you can access the box with an usb-keyboard?
[12:30] <imyousuf> yes stefg, usb keyboard and mouse works just fine when the onboard keyboard and mouse freezes
[12:30] <Guest31978> i have a rtl8187se wireless card but when i install jaunty it installs rtl8180 driver it connects to the network but i cannot get the interent to work at all
[12:31] <Guest31978> anyhelp would be much appreciated
[12:31] <Guest31978> newb here
[12:31] <unoobtu> i have a problem sharing a cdrom in ubuntu-windows xp
[12:31] <stefg> imyousuf: so inspection of dmesg and log files in /var/log would be the first steps
[12:32] <hanshenrik> i need a shell-script to check if /dev/sda0 is mounted or not, how can i do that?
[12:32] <unoobtu> i have a problem sharing a cdrom in ubuntu-windows xp
[12:33] <stefg> imyousuf: can you rule out that this is a hardware problem (e.g. boot the Live CD and see if still happens)
[12:33] <lstarnes> hanshenrik: mount | grep /dev/sda0
[12:33] <Guest31978> i have a rtl8187se wireless card but when i install jaunty it installs rtl8180 driver it connects to the network but i cannot get the interent to work at all
[12:33] <imyousuf> ok stefg, checking the /var/log/syslog, I would rule out a HW problem since pre installed Vista works just fine
[12:33] <hanshenrik> Istarnes: thanks
[12:33] <shashi> is 9.04 comes with preinstalled intel display drivers
[12:33] <ghostknife> How can I see which files a package installed?
[12:33] <unoobtu> i have a problem sharing a cdrom in ubuntu-windows xp
[12:34] <lstarnes> ghostknife: dpkg -L packagename
[12:34] <ghostknife> I don't see that feature under apt-cache or apt-get - unless I'm missing it
[12:34] <hanshenrik> shashi: yeah.. at least some

[12:41] <BlouBlou> ABOANAS93: well, I think no, but I don't know why Ubuntu's support recommends connect with 8001 port (I always used 6667 and no problem)
[12:41] <mo0nykit> How do I remove the configuration files of already removed packages?
[12:41] <lstarnes> BlouBlou: some routers have a DCC bug when using port 6667
[12:42] <BlouBlou> lstarnes: umh, I never had any problem, but thanks for info
[12:43] <stefg> imyousuf: my guess is that there are IRQ conflicts imposed by a buggy bios in certain condititions
[12:43] <stefg> imyousuf: you might try boot parameters

[12:46] <bardyr> Hey, i have a macbook pro 13", how can i change the keyboard layout to mac? changing it in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard, just makes it a qwerty keyboard
[12:46] <grawity> chris8: All user files and settings are stored in their home directory. So just tar cvzf /media/external-disk/backup.tgz /home, or something like that.
[12:46] <linuxn_eo> lstarnes: yep; time to find a way to clear 200 megs or so of space and continue, heh
[12:46] <lstarnes> unoobtu: please provide more details
[12:46] <imyousuf> thanks stefg. performing the steps :)
[12:47] <chris8> Grawity:  cvzf?  is that a directory on my current system?
[12:47] <lstarnes> chris8: no
[12:47] <grawity> chris8: czvf are the options to 'tar'
[12:47] <chris8> oh it's part of the command
[12:47] <linuxn_eo> chris8; those are options to tar
[12:48] <lstarnes> chris8: Create, Verbose, gZip, File
[12:48] <chris8> :P
[12:48] <linuxn_eo> create compress verbose... yeah
[12:48] <chris8> hahaha thanks guys!!!
[12:48] <chris8> 'sall in the media directory?
[12:48] <stefg> imyousuf: and test the karmic beta! if the issue isn't resolved and you file a good bug report there is a slight chance  it will get fixed for karmic
[12:48] <Guest31978> i have a rtl8187se wireless card but when i install jaunty it installs rtl8180 driver it connects to the network but i cannot get the interent to work at all
[12:49] <bongo> Whats the diff between -virtual, -generic, -image-virtual and -image-generic kernels?
[12:49] <mo0nykit> How do I remove the configuration files of already removed packages?
[12:49] <lstarnes> bongo: -image-* = -*
[12:49] <imyousuf> ok will do so stefg, thanks a million
[12:49] <lstarnes> bongo: -generic is for generic usage
[12:50] <lstarnes> bongo: -virtual is optimized for virtual machines
[12:50] <boiinngboiing1> Does anybody know how do i limit bandwidth on a lan for a particular node?
[12:50] <imyousuf> stefg: now trying to a diff between the startup /var/log/syslog to c whether can figure out some thing :)
[12:50] <bongo> lstarnes: thx
[12:51] <stefg> imyousuf: the most interesting thing is dmesg and possibly xorg.0.log
[12:51] <penthief> Can anyone help me work out why my wireless mouse is no longer working?
[12:52] <imyousuf> stefg: will check them as well sequentially, thanks for the pointer
[12:52] <hannibal79> hello i want to had this reb http://ppa.launchpad.net/pgquiles/ppa/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/ but i have no key
[12:52] <lstarnes> hannibal79: go to the PPA page for it and look for the key
[12:53] <hannibal79> gpg? is it this?
[12:53] <hannibal79> and then?
[12:53] <Two4> I'm looking for a suitable antivirus/antispyware for my machine
[12:53] <lstarnes> hannibal79: install the key using the provided instructions
[12:53] <lstarnes> !virus > Two4
[12:53] <penthief> Is there a /proc file which should show my wireless mouse?
[12:54] <lstarnes> hannibal79: gpg is the GNU Privacy Guard, which is an implementation of OpenPGP.  it is used for encyption and digital signatures, like SSL
[12:54] <stefg> penthief: cat /dev/input/mice ... move the mouse and see if something happens on the terminal
[12:54] <lucky__> hello friend.
[12:54] <boiinngboiing1> what network protocol leeches all bandwidth in a LAN?
[12:55] <aref3006> hello every body
[12:55] <lstarnes> hannibal79: ubuntu's packages use it in order to verify that the packages came from the people that they are claimed to have come from
[12:56] <unoobtu> lstarnes ok i'm back! i followed a tutorial to share the cdrom.. but the cdrom folder i see from the other machine was empty..
[12:57] <erkin> Can anyone tell me what can I do to make movies run more smoothly in Ubuntu ^^ my videos look like its skipping frames and that makes both sound and video choppy :/
[12:57] <lstarnes> erkin: do you use compiz or visual effects?
[12:57] <Two4> I think my Firefox browser may have been infected with malware. How would I find out if it has?
[12:57] <lstarnes> Two4: in ubuntu?
[12:57] <stefg> erkin: what ubuntu version and what graphics card?
[12:57] <erkin> no visual effect... no idea about compiz? :S
[12:57] <grom72_> eject -h
[12:57] <Two4> yes, lstarnes
[12:57] <erkin> ubuntu 9.04
[12:58] <erkin> radeon x1300 graphics card
[12:58] <stefg> !ati | erkin
[12:58] <stefg> erkin: your 3d acceleration seems not to work
[12:59] <erkin> ok ty :) I'll check it
[12:59] <llutz> Two4: very unlikely but if: sudo apt-get purge firefox && rm -rf ~/mozilla/firefox/
[12:59] <hawken> Hi :)
[13:00] <Two4> llutz, what will that do?
[13:00] <penthief> stefg: OK, nothing. Presumably the trackpad is one of the mice in /dev/input, but cat /dev/input/mouse* outputs nothing when moving the trackpad.
[13:00] <Marukaz> Hello people. Does anybody know good guide how to install windows near ubuntu?
[13:00] <lstarnes> Two4: what makes you suspect that?
[13:00] <llutz> Two4: remove firefox and purge your personal ff-settingsfolder
[13:00] <lstarnes> Two4: llutz's command is a last resort
[13:01] <Two4> It has been running very slowly all of a sudden, and I am receiving weird errors
[13:01] <lstarnes> Two4: have you restarted firefox?
[13:01] <ortsvorsteher> Marukaz: you want dualboot?
[13:01] <llutz> Two4: if you expect ff to be compromised but cannot check it yourself, purging is the only way you can go
[13:01] <Two4> several times, this si not a new problem, it's a few days old
[13:01] <Marukaz> ortsvorsteher yes
[13:01] <penthief> I'm just trying to verify that output is meant to occur when cat-ing /dev/input/mouse*
[13:02] <ortsvorsteher> Marukaz: so at first you have to install windows, after that leave a partition free and then install ubuntu
[13:03] <mo0nykit> How do I remove the configuration files of already removed packages?
[13:03] <penthief> What's that kernel module for debugging USB devices?
[13:03] <ortsvorsteher> !dualboot | Marukaz
[13:03] <Marukaz> ortsvorsteher so there are no way to install windows and do not delete ubuntu?
[13:04] <grawity> penthief: usbmon?
[13:04] <Two4> ok, llutz, thanks, I'll purge and reinstall
[13:04] <lucky__> Hi everyone. please help me when i type compiz in the terminal i get the following message:Checking for Xgl: not present.
[13:04] <lucky__> xset q doesn't reveal the location of the log file. Using fallback /Var/log/Xorg.o.log.
[13:04] <lucky__> Blacklisted PCIID '8086:2562' found.
[13:04] <lucky__> aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity.
[13:04] <FloodBot1> lucky__: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:04] <ortsvorsteher> Marukaz: no, because the master boot record for an windows installation has to bee on block zero from the disk.
[13:04] <imyousuf> stefg: Interesting finding from the log is that in case of successful startup the number modules loaded is 52 in case of failure the number is 50, found syslog, checking dmesg to see if there is anything interesting there or not
[13:04] <penthief> Just located it -- usb_debug.ko
[13:05] <stefg> imyousuf: that's some useful info for a bug report
[13:05] <ortsvorsteher> Marukaz: otherwise you cannot boot windows. make a backup of your ubuntu installation and make an export from your evolution if you use it.
[13:05] <llutz> Marukaz: windows will only overwrite your grub, not your ubuntu. just reinstall grub into MBR after win-installation
[13:05] <llutz> !grub | Marukaz
[13:05] <Imurikauppias> how i can go quakenet
[13:05] <stefg> imyousuf: can you identify which modules are missing ?
[13:05] <lstarnes> Imurikauppias: /server irc.quakenet.org
[13:06] <imyousuf> stefg: trying to check the dmesg log, will identify you :) ASAP :-D
[13:06] <exup> Hi, how do I define the swap partition using ubiquity during a live CD install. It will not recognize it, I have tried /swap and /(swap). I suspect I am missing the point.
[13:06] <hkais1> hello all
[13:06] <imyousuf> s/identify/notify (stefg)
[13:06] <Two4> llutz, could you repeat that command for me please?
[13:06] <fcfreax> hi
[13:06] <llutz> exup: you have to set partition-type to swap, not a mountpoint
[13:06] <master_> Hi all anyone here feel like assisting virgin techs useless and i need to get my router working...I can connect to sites through my modem but router it hangs I think its dns related but after an hour with them they cant help
[13:06] <llutz> Two4: very unlikely but if: sudo apt-get purge firefox && rm -rf ~/mozilla/firefox/
[13:06] <ubnutu> Hi. Have finally managed to get ubuntu installed, BUT Im not getting any GUI, just command line. Did I miss something from the install? (alternate CD)
[13:07] <llutz> Two4: very unlikely but if: sudo apt-get purge firefox && rm -rf ~/.mozilla/firefox/
[13:07] <lstarnes> ubnutu: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[13:07] <llutz> Two4: sry typo
[13:07] <lstarnes> llutz: I think he gets it
[13:07] <cybersplice> ubnutu, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[13:07] <cybersplice> or xubuntu or kubuntu, i suppose.
[13:07] <hkais1> i have a hardy samba server and a intrepid cifs client. I have the locale en_US.UTF-8. But if I create a file with german umlauts on the intrepid I get corrupted german umlauts on hardy
[13:07] <ubnutu> lstarnes: Really. Now why did the installer not take care of that?
[13:07] <exup> IIutz| hmm, will check but sounds like the go.
[13:07] <lstarnes> ubnutu: you may have needed to choose it during installation
[13:07] <master_> lstarnes: any help
[13:07] <lucky__> please help me ......
[13:08] <Two4> llutz: is that rm -rf or rm-rf? my client isn't good at wrapping lines
[13:08] <boiinngboiing1> We have a wireless router and two users are connected... if both of them are downloading stuff at same time then how is the speed divided between them?
[13:08] <lstarnes> Two4: with the space
[13:08] <lstarnes> master_: sorry, no
[13:08] <Two4> thanks
[13:08] <ubnutu> lstarnes: Hmm. Thanks, doing it now.
[13:08] <llutz> Two4: use better readable font then :) rm    -rf
[13:08] <ubnutu> you too cybersplice
[13:08] <cybersplice> np
[13:08] <master_> ok any one else no how i can configure my router
[13:08] <stefg> imyousuf: my idea is to force the module loading by adding them to /etc/modules ... so even if the lame bios forgets to initialize the keyboard controller in time the kernel loads the modules anyway, hopefully making the device work
[13:08] <boiinngboiing1> how is the bandwidth divided between users by a router?
[13:08] <lstarnes> master_: it sounds like it's a router configuration issue
[13:08] <guoxiaolong> Today, when prompted to install linux can not find the hard drive, which is why
[13:08] <lstarnes> boiinngboiing1: it usually isn't divided in any particular way
[13:09] <master_> I know i need to configure it i got it opened just need some guidance
[13:09] <imyousuf> hmm interesting stefg
[13:09] <llutz> boiinngboiing1: if you haven't configured traffic-shaping, it isn't devided at all
[13:09] <boiinngboiing1> llutz: i havent configured traffic sharing ..
[13:09] <boiinngboiing1> llutz: my friend is putting on downloads
[13:09] <lstarnes> boiinngboiing1: shaping, not sharinf
[13:09] <lstarnes> *sharing
[13:10] <boiinngboiing1> llutz: and i am getting very little speed
[13:10] <guoxiaolong> In linux how to set up a ppp dial-up and never break
[13:10] <lstarnes> boiinngboiing1: you could use qos or something like that
[13:10] <boiinngboiing1> llutz: That was a typo sorry.
[13:10] <master_> any help with dns guys
[13:10] <ortsvorsteher> !ppp | guoxiaolong
[13:11] <lstarnes> master_: check your /etc/resolv.conf
[13:11] <boiinngboiing1> lstarnes: I will check qos
[13:11] <llutz> boiinngboiing1: but QOS on the router, not your personal box
[13:11] <boiinngboiing1> The problem is that my room mate is downloading lots of data and i am getting very little speeds on my own downloads. i can either split the bandwidth between both of us or leech the speed myself
[13:11] <boiinngboiing1> i dont want to forward the connection through my box
[13:12] <lstarnes> boiinngboiing1: or cut off your roommate completely
[13:12] <boiinngboiing1> not that
[13:12] <boiinngboiing1> he pays too
[13:12] <llutz> he pays not enough
[13:12] <boiinngboiing1> besides i dont wana hurt his studies
[13:12] <boiinngboiing1> he is ignorant
[13:12] <hkais1> noone here who could help with my samba encoding problem* ^^^
[13:12] <boiinngboiing1> puts 50 videos on download at same time
[13:12] <boiinngboiing1> gets all the bandwidth
[13:13] <boiinngboiing1> how do i either split the bandwidth or leech my share?
[13:13] <master_> lstarnes: opened what am i looking for it mentions conflicts
[13:13] <boiinngboiing1> he gets around 150KBPS and i get around 40
[13:13] <lstarnes> master_: make sure that the nameservers listed work
[13:13] <boiinngboiing1> kilobytes
[13:13] <guoxiaolong> I can dial, but automatically lost after a period of time, could you where to set up automatic send connection requests, and never break
[13:13] <mo0nykit> boiinngboiing1, you might want to read up on load balancing?
[13:13] <master_> there are no name servers?
[13:14] <stefg> boiinngboiing1: i'd set up a router/firewall appliance (either soft- or hardware) that has QOS and bandwiith peering. the gateway needs to manage that, nothing you can really do on the client machines.
[13:14] <lstarnes> master_: there is nothing in /etc/resolv.conf?
[13:14] <mo0nykit> boiinngboiing1, yes. a QoS
[13:14] <master_> if [ -x /usr/lib/avahi/avahi-daemon-check-dns.sh ]; then
[13:14] <master_>   exec /usr/lib/avahi/avahi-daemon-check-dns.sh
[13:14] <master_> fi
[13:14] <boiinngboiing1> i have a basic router
[13:14] <lstarnes> boiinngboiing1: which model?
[13:14] <boiinngboiing1> doesnt have bandwidth shaping
[13:14] <guoxiaolong> QOS is Certification
[13:14] <exup> llutz| many thanks for the tip about mounting point/swap file in ubiquity, its fixed.
[13:15] <yakoza> i'v installed opera10 but i get this error
[13:15] <yakoza> ERROR: ld.so: object 'libjvm.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.

[13:15] <boiinngboiing1> ITI DNA A 211
[13:15] <master_> lstarnes: thats what i get
[13:15] <yakoza> what should i do ?
[13:15] <stefg> boiinngboiing1: you'd have to replace that with a smarter device (e.g. old pentium with two nics) running some firewall distro like ipcop or (my choice) endian firewall
[13:16] <guoxiaolong> yakoza :that mean your lic gcc is not maked
[13:16] <Two4> you need to install libqt
[13:16] <lstarnes> master_: in /etc/resolv.conf?
[13:16] <stefg> boiinngboiing1: or check if your router can run openWRT
[13:16] <boiinngboiing1> i cant spend on more hardware
[13:16] <master_> correct
[13:16] <guoxiaolong> yes you need to install libqt
[13:16] <lstarnes> master_: erase the contents and replace it with these two lines:
[13:16] <boiinngboiing1> i will check out open wrt
[13:16] <lstarnes> master_: nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:16] <lstarnes> master_: nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:17] <master_> nothing
[13:17] <boiinngboiing1> and how do i leech my share of bandwidth if i cant split it?
[13:17] <guoxiaolong> nameserver must be your dhcp or Service providers in
[13:17] <imyousuf> stefg: Please check the top most lines @ http://gist.github.com/201310 thats the only conclusive stuff I could get :(, where should I look next?
[13:17] <boiinngboiing1> He uses gwget for his downloads
[13:17] <master_> it says avahi-daemon
[13:17] <imyousuf> any idea which modules the outputs correspond to stefg?
[13:18] <yakoza> Two4: Couldn't find package libqt
[13:18] <boiinngboiing1> Is there a way to limit bandwidth on HTTP protocol so i can use torrents myself?
[13:18] <lstarnes> yakoza: aptitude search libqt
[13:18] <colblood> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory - how can i fix that? starts if i run it as sudo?
[13:18] <Nisha_> hey how can i install the new linux kernel withput compiling,because i need support for ndiswraper,graphics etc
[13:18] <lstarnes> Nisha_: you WILL need to compile
[13:18] <colblood> just using my box as mediahtpc, so dont care about anything else really
[13:18] <Two4> yakoza, libqt isn't the exact name. perform an apt-cache search
[13:18] <guoxiaolong> I want to know how to set up auto-configuration files to send connection request
[13:18] <master_> no name servers
[13:18] <lstarnes> Nisha_: or, preferably, upgrade ubuntu to a newer version
[13:19] <master_> what does that mean i upgraded to karma
[13:19] <Nisha_> lstarnes: so manually compile the stuff?
[13:19] <lstarnes> master_: #ubuntu+1 is better for karmic questions
[13:19] <lstarnes> Nisha_: yes.
[13:19] <stefg> imyousuf: serio ... :-) .. run 'locate serio' and look what's in lib/modules/ ...blah...
[13:19] <lstarnes> Nisha_: or, preferably, upgrade ubuntu
[13:19] <Nisha_> lstarnes: ok will do
[13:19] <master_> this was happening in 9.04 to
[13:19] <Nisha_> lstarnes: mine is the very latest kubuntu
[13:19] <guoxiaolong> yes you can try use cmd that:grep lib*
[13:19] <lstarnes> Nisha_: kernels that are not officially provuded in the repos are not supported
[13:19] <fbianconi> master_: try google opendns
[13:19] <lstarnes> Nisha_: do not ask us for help with unsupported kernels
[13:19] <boiinngboiing1> i dont think the router supports openwrt
[13:19] <lstarnes> Nisha_: we only know how to handle the officially supported packages
[13:20] <didiermah> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rI2_9FulH9s

[13:21] <guoxiaolong> Must use a proxy server
[13:21] <lstarnes> unoobtu: I really don't know anything about samba, sorry

[13:21] <teolicy__> Hi. This might be a bit flamebait, I don't intend it as such. I'm switching back Linux after several years in OSX, and have to pick applications. Is there an "obvious and leading" IRC client for Gnome? (maybe even two or three)? I know I can look at apt-cache search, but I'm looking for human advice.
[13:21] <lstarnes> master_: how to use opendns for dns service
[13:21] <unoobtu> lstarnes ok, but why i can't see my cdrom contents from cdrom folder?
[13:21] <fbianconi> master_: how to use opendns dns
[13:21] <lstarnes> teolicy__: xchat
[13:21] <unoobtu> lstarnes but i see them from media folder?
[13:22] <teolicy__> (for example, if I'd ask the same question about IM, I'd expect to hear "Pidgin" or "Empathy", if I'd ask it about browsers I'd expect to hear "Firefox", etc)
[13:22] <master_> for my router
[13:22] <lstarnes> unoobtu: I'm not sure
[13:22] <teolicy__> lstarnes: Aye, thanks.
[13:22] <lstarnes> teolicy__: pidgin lacks full irc support
[13:22] <lstarnes> teolicy__: but it is good for everything else
[13:22] <guoxiaolong> samba i used but i forgot it
[13:22] <llutz> !best | teolicy__
[13:22] <unoobtu> ok thx anyway
[13:23] <teolicy__> llutz: Ouch. Sorry, didn't know it's against channel policy.
[13:23] <guoxiaolong> thx means thanks
[13:23] <guoxiaolong> ok/
[13:23] <guoxiaolong> ok?
[13:23] <orlok>  This should not happen.!! Data will be lost
[13:23] <peeps123> ubuntu is BRILLIANT
[13:23] <lstarnes> guoxiaolong: yes, but using the full "thanks" is better than just "thx"
[13:23] <orlok> Doh, - i meant to say - anybody seen this error before? - http://codepad.org/nUuMLa7Z
[13:24] <teolicy__> Wow, bestbot is pretty cool.
