[00:00] <encaputxat> hello
[00:00] <meshuggah> hi encaputxat
[00:00] <nickrud> GuruDrew, if you knew how many times I've had to help people surgically remove poorly installed software to avoid them having to reinstall, you'd have pity on my poor psyche ;)
[00:00] <misieq> where do files received via bluetooth go?
[00:00] <encaputxat> i wanna connect two machines via ethernet to share internet, i can do it without cross-over?
[00:01] <m4zt3r> Can anyone explain why all of a sudden my mozilla browser no longer has the minimize, maximize, and close icons at the top, even after reboot?  Its like the top section is just blank other than what looks like a loding circle in the top right
[00:01] <encaputxat> i have a friend that tell me is auto switch
[00:01] <meshuggah> ecaputxat : i dont think, cross-over cable or a rooter or something
[00:01] <oskar> encaputxat:  take two cables and put a hub or a switch between
[00:01] <GuruDrew> nickrud: Haha, okay, I'll make sure to keep it in my back pocket as the very last resort
[00:01] <nickrud> GuruDrew, that's all we ask. Sometimes it is the only solution
[00:01] <encaputxat> my macs can do it
[00:02] <CyBurnet> GuruDrew, "unable to save data" "you do not have permission to edit this file" "unable to determine permissions of the disk" etc
[00:02] <oskar> encaputxat:  or take another medium, that can handle ip, for example a serial line, wireless lan, bluetooth ;)
[00:02] <durt> m4zt3r: F11
[00:02] <redvamp128> m4zt3r:  have you enabled compiz? Sometimes that disappears with Nvidia Cards and some Ati Cards-
[00:02] <encaputxat> thankx
[00:02] <encaputxat> thaankx  bye
[00:02] <SpaZZoiD> hey
[00:02] <meshuggah> how can i remove the ubuntu graphic when i boot...i want to see the lines of text, with beautiful login: text on black screen when booting
[00:02] <redvamp128> m4zt3r:  and there is a fix to get it back -- if you have done that
[00:04] <ngirard> Hi all. Since my update from hardy to intrepid, my <down> key only works in console. It generates no X event. How to fix this ?
[00:04] <redvamp128> m4zt3r:  and also have you hit the f11 key that will make it disappear to.
[00:05] <meshuggah> uh? what happened?
[00:05] <ActionParsnip> ngirard: check keyboard layout
[00:05] <ActionParsnip> meshuggah: awesome nick dude :D
[00:05] <ngirard> ActionParsnip: What do you mean ? in xorg.conf ?
[00:05] <KenBW2> "error 2 while executing fsck.ntfs" <-- what does that mean and how do I fix it?
[00:05] <ActionParsnip> !keyboard | ngirard
[00:05] <indy_> hey
[00:05] <SpaZZoiD> how do i make this stop telling me when people join an leave
[00:05] <meshuggah> actionparsnip: thank you :))
[00:05] <ActionParsnip> KenBW2: try sudo fsck.ntfs
[00:06] <KenBW2> ActionParsnip: i did
[00:06] <ActionParsnip> SpaZZoiD: depends on client
[00:06] <ngirard> ActionParsnip: xorg.conf is fine, as far as I can tell
[00:06] <ActionParsnip> !keyboard
[00:06] <SpaZZoiD> im useing xchat that came with ubuntu
[00:06] <luigi_> someone use here maxwell render?
[00:06] <meshuggah> how can i remove the ubuntu graphic when i boot...i want to see the beautiful lines of text
[00:06] <KenBW2> ActionParsnip: actually, misread. it says command not found
[00:07] <SpaZZoiD> pm me if u can help
[00:07] <SpaZZoiD> or join #spazzoid
[00:07] <ActionParsnip> ngirard: go to your keyboard settings in settings manager or whatever it is in gnome and make sure its the right layout
[00:07] <adaptr> SpaZZoiD: that would be the same thing, duh
[00:07] <m4zt3r> redvamp128, well if i hit f11, and its fullscreen, icons are present.  if i hit f11 again, then they top bar doesnt have the icons...seems like its loading because theres a circle of dots where the icons normally are
[00:07] <redvamp128> m4zt3r:  did you enable compiz?
[00:08] <ngirard> ActionParsnip: err... actually I'm using the Kubuntu flavor. Which package should I install to get Gnome's system settings ?
[00:08] <redvamp128> m4zt3r:  with some nvidia cards it disappears -- (there is a fix to add ) to fix that issue.
[00:08] <_VIM_> saying 'duh' or 'RTFM!' is not very ubuntu-like please be nice :)
[00:08] <ActionParsnip> ngirard: run systemsettings its in there]
[00:09] <m4zt3r> redvamp128, well no i havent turned it on or off....why would it change all of a sudden
[00:09] <adaptr> _VIM_: AFAIK asking for private help is not appreciated anywhere on freenode
[00:09] <redvamp128> m4zt3r:  some people just get the urge to see the cube and spin it
[00:10] <furythor1> how I do run compiz config ?
[00:10] <ActionParsnip> adaptr: its ok if they ask first
[00:11] <nickrud> furythor1, install compizconfig-settings-manager, it'll be under system->prefs
[00:11] <ActionParsnip> furythor1: ccsm
[00:11] <redvamp128> m4zt3r:  was this all of a sudden? and have you tried - running firefox and create a new profile... (/.firefox -profilemanger
[00:11] <adaptr> ActionParsnip: apropos of nothing ? without asking...1350 people their burning question first ?
[00:11] <ngirard> ActionParsnip: Ok, fixed the problem. Thanks for your assistance
[00:11] <ActionParsnip> adaptr: no i meant if someone asks me if its ko to PM then i'll say ok then its not intrusive
[00:11] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[00:12] <adaptr> ActionParsnip: if it's a direct question to you, sure
[00:12] <adaptr> this, however, was not
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> adaptr: thats what i meant :)
[00:12] <nickrud> adaptr, ActionParsnip could you guys take this discussion to a pm or a private channel ?  :)
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> adaptr: yeah if its random its unwelcomed and i always tell them to ask in the room
[00:13] <m4zt3r> redvamp128 +1
[00:13] <adaptr> nickrud: hey, that was waay too pointed to be a coinkidink
[00:14] <beamsjr> When I install Ubuntu Server I end up at the grub menu after install, no errors... If I point to the config file it boots, any ideas on how I can fix this to boot with out me manually pointing it to the configfile?

[00:14] <SpaZZoiD> how
[00:14] <ActionParsnip> !register
[00:14] <nickrud> !register | SpaZZoiD
[00:14] <ActionParsnip> ubottu is asleep
[00:14] <KenBW2> "fsck.ntfs: command not found" <-- how do I fix that
[00:14] <SpaZZoiD> !register SpaZZoiD
[00:15] <nickrud> SpaZZoiD, /join #freenode , they help with registration
[00:15] <adaptr> SpaZZoiD: use slashes
[00:15] <musikgoat|main> KenBW2: install ntfs-utils i think
[00:15] <nickrud> ubottu just takes a while to get up to speed after it restarts
[00:15] <musikgoat|main> KenBW2: sorry, ntfsprogs
[00:16] <KenBW2> musikgoat|main: ntsprogs is already newest version
[00:16]  * nickrud was waiting for floodbot to mute ubottu
[00:16] <nickrud> heh
[00:16] <node357> you called that one, nickrud
[00:16] <CyBurnett> Is it possible to set programs as default in Ubuntu 8.04?
[00:16] <prince_jammys> CyBurnett: yes
[00:17] <prince_jammys> !defaultapp | CyBurnett
[00:17] <nickrud> CyBurnett, also, in a file manager edit->prefs media tab
[00:17] <Carefree[mib]> hello
[00:18] <CyBurnett> Thanks to all, have a nice day/night :-)
[00:18] <Carefree[mib]> How do you get the package manager to show non-application stuff like tcl/tk or linux-headers and stuff like that?
[00:18] <adi1> hi all
[00:19] <adi1> how can i mount ntfs volume in my laptop
[00:19] <maboughey> does anyone know if there should be a user with these details on ubuntu server / 	username:irc 	group:irc 	realname:ircd 	homedirectory:/var/run/ircd
[00:19] <prince_jammys> Carefree[mib]: which package manager? synaptic or aptitude would show that
[00:19] <nickrud> Carefree[mib], you mean system->admin->synaptic ?
[00:19] <adi1> i have installed ntfs3g but nothing
[00:19] <adi1> it says "unable to mount volume"
[00:19] <Carefree[mib]> oh, sorry, I just did add-remove XD
[00:19] <nickrud> maboughey, sounds right if you're running an irc server
[00:20] <beamsjr> how can I tell how much free space there is from terminal?
[00:20] <maboughey> nickrud, i dont have an irc server :/
[00:20] <yoyoned> beamsjr: df -h
[00:20] <nickrud> beamsjr,  df
[00:20] <Carefree[mib]> df -h
[00:20] <maboughey> nickrud, i cant find anything in /var/run
[00:20] <prince_jammys> maboughey: from my ubuntu hardy's /etc/passwd (not a server):  irc:x:39:39:ircd:/var/run/ircd:/bin/sh
[00:20] <beamsjr> Thanks!
[00:20] <nickrud> maboughey, neither do I, but I do have those in my passwd file.
[00:21] <maboughey> so should I woryy about them?
[00:21] <yoyoned> beamsjr: you can also use du -h in a folder to see how much is in that fiolder
[00:21] <nickrud> maboughey, I'm very comfortable that this virtual machine hasn't been hacked :)
[00:21] <techboi128> oh my god i just installed ubuntu for the first time and love it wow.. I have no Idea what im doing but think its amazing
[00:21] <maboughey> ok, there isnt any open ports that their shouldnt be anyway
[00:22] <Carefree[mib]> is wine decent?
[00:22] <Carefree[mib]> does it work much?
[00:23] <beamsjr> Does anyone know how to figure out grub problems?
[00:23] <hubar> depends on what you  use it for.
[00:23] <adaptr> no, it's lazy Carefree[mib]
[00:23] <kindofabuzz> wine plays my WoW, that's all that matters =)
[00:23] <hubar> if for modern games, no
[00:23] <yoyoned> beamsjr: describe your problem
[00:23] <Carefree[mib]> Would it work for an iphone tunneling program via wifi?
[00:23] <hubar> kindofabuzz, it does?
[00:23] <prince_jammys> !grub | beamsjr
[00:23] <Carefree[mib]> not wifi, USB
[00:23] <beamsjr> grub does not load the menu.lst file
[00:23] <kindofabuzz> hubar, umm yeah
[00:24] <furythor1> this font or what ever corruption is really weird as I tried to run one windows application with wine and it did not have any font issues. ..
[00:24] <hubar> kindofabuzz, I tried it, but then it crashed my laptop. :(
[00:24] <techboi128> I wanted to know if there is a way to use ie on ubuntu The only reason i ask is i work from home and i can only use ie for my vcms product
[00:24] <beamsjr> I have to manually load it by configfile (hd0,0)/boot/grub/menu.lst
[00:24] <yoyoned> beamsjr: why do you think it's not loading menu.lst
[00:24] <kindofabuzz> hubar, coulld your laptop play wow in windows? your hardware may not be compatable
[00:24] <beamsjr> because I just get grub>
[00:24] <yoyoned> beamsjr: then how do you boot?
[00:25] <beamsjr> configfile (hd0,0)/boot/grub/menu.lst
[00:25] <prince_jammys> !ies4linux | techboi128
[00:25] <beamsjr> grub> configfile (hd0,0)/boot/grub/menu.lst
[00:25] <redvamp128> techboi128:  Though highly not recommended -- there is ies4linux Installing IEs4Linux on Ubuntu <http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/ies4linux>
[00:25] <prince_jammys> techboi128: you need to install 'wine' first, if you haven't
[00:25] <hubar> kindofabuzz, I think so, my laptop is a lenovo T61. a very common model.
[00:26] <yoyoned> beamsjr: after booting, run sudo grub-install /dev/hda
[00:26] <kindofabuzz> For those of you with boot problems, best tool ever:  http://www.supergrubdisk.org/
[00:26] <beamsjr> ok, should I do /dev/hdc ? Thats my boot disk?
[00:26] <redvamp128> techboi128:  though have you also tried with firefox the user agent switching
[00:26] <furythor1> hubar you have problem of running world of warcraft in linux with wine ?
[00:26] <yoyoned> beamsjr: wherever grub is installed
[00:27] <RAdams> Just installed intrepid 64-bit on a system with an ASUS SK8N (nforce2) motherboard, Radeon 3650 AGP video card. xorg.conf was empty, ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, then startx. X worked, but stopped working on system restart. Any idea as to what's happening here, and how to get it working?
[00:27] <beamsjr> ok, thanks
[00:27] <redvamp128> techboi128:  User Agent Switcher :: Firefox Add-ons <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59>
[00:27] <hubar> furythor1, I *had*, I don't attempt to use Linux toplay WOW anymore. :)
[00:27] <techboi128> ok I know this may sound stupid but I have never use linux before and am willing to read and learn but would these programs be stable enough to run software for a vcms acpp and also stable enough to work on
[00:27] <yoyoned> beamsjr: configfile (hd0,0)/boot/grub/menu.lst doesn't make sense if you booting of /dev/hdc
[00:28] <hubar> furythor1, It is way too large (12G!) to move around anyway. I am sick of waiting for the copying to finish.
[00:28] <beamsjr> actually its sdb
[00:28] <beamsjr> sdb1
[00:28] <furythor1> well, you can't run almost any "Direct 3D" sofware without some sort of serious problems in wine, however you can use "-opengl" switch to force WoW into openGL mode, which works well in wine...
[00:28] <E3b> hello all... I cant flush the DNS Cache on ubuntu... someone can help me please?
[00:28] <beamsjr> thats my / and where I told it to install the boot
[00:28] <lose_the_grimm> Hey guys, I'm running my ubuntu box as a router/file-server and my workstations can ping web address (www.google.com) but some applications will not work.
[00:29] <lose_the_grimm> e.g. firefox, chrome, safari, pidgin
[00:29] <beamsjr> is it possable I have grub also on sda?
[00:29] <RAdams> Just installed intrepid 64-bit on a system with an ASUS SK8N (nforce2) motherboard, Radeon 3650 AGP video card. xorg.conf was empty, ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, then startx.

[00:29] <jken146> I have a USB to SATA bridge with a disk attached, that isn't showing up by fdisk -l.  I can see the USB gizmo with lsusb.  lshw hangs on SCSI, so I guess it is feeling the drive but not being able to go any further.  I'm not sure how to proceed.
[00:29] <yoyoned> beamsjr: if you want to boot into the instance of grub that you are currently running, you need to install it to the mbr of the first disk or /dev/sda
[00:30] <furythor1> Yeah I know the feeling, I did copy it once from HD to another, took 1 hour, during which my coputer could do nothing else without severly impacting moving speed ...
[00:30] <bbzez> whats the coolest theme from gnome-look?
[00:30] <kjell> Hai thar fellas!
[00:30] <linguini> Where is the default runlevel specified in ubuntu?

[00:31] <furythor1> also it is very recomendable to make DVD of WOW install files or Backup copy to another HD (Including patches)

[00:31] <yoyoned> heinrich: check the voulume levels
[00:31] <kjell> I have a problem with my apache2. I accidentaly removed a config-file. I figured I would apt-get remove apache2, and then install it again. But the files missing didn't show up.
[00:31] <kjell> What to do?
[00:32] <heinrich> yoyoned: is 100%
[00:32] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: In Upstart
[00:32] <ActionParsnip> kjell: sudo apt-get --reinstall install apache2
[00:32] <askvictor> I'm confused about the Volume control; the 'mic' levels in the playback tab - do they have any effect on the record levels or is that purely for monitoring?
[00:32] <ActionParsnip> kjell: what file are you missing?
[00:32] <lose_the_grimm> Some applications are working, such as uTorrent, CXFire, a few others.
[00:32] <heinrich> yoyoned: i have 2 sound cards
[00:32] <progex> woa what is this
[00:32] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: I'm in console mode, I see no /etc/init/jobs.d
[00:33] <kjell> ActionParsnip: Currently, the whole /etc/apache2-folder.
[00:33] <RAdams> askvictor: purely for monitoring
[00:33] <Roken> Can anyone help with a xfce/gnome problem?
[00:33] <ActionParsnip> kjell: the reinstall may help

[00:33] <askvictor> RAdams and the Mic Boost levels?
[00:34] <RAdams> askvictor: anything in the playback section is only for playback, will not affect recording
[00:34] <Roken> Okay action =P
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> kjell: sudo apt-get install --reinstall apache2.2-common
[00:34] <Guest21058> looks like more than just me is having problems with audio
[00:34] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: I also see no 'man Upstart'
[00:34] <CyBurnett> anyone know of a good backup proggy that will backup my whole partition?
[00:34] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: But I also see no /etc/inittab
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> !backup | CyBurnett
[00:35] <askvictor> RAdams: that's what I'd figure, but there are no mic boost options anywhere else - not sure how else to activate/deactivate mic boost
[00:35] <kjell> ActionParsnip: That did the trick. Although the /etc/apache2/sites-available-folder is empty. It was not the first time I installed it. Hah, what a mess I've done.
[00:35] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: That is because upstart isn't a program, it is a package. It provides /sbin/init amongst others. try "man init"
[00:35] <beamsjr> yoyoned /dev/hda did not fix it
[00:35] <CyBurnett> Once again thanks to all :)
[00:35] <beamsjr> sda*
[00:36] <beamsjr> Will try sdb
[00:36] <Guest21058> would someone be willing to help me fix an audio problem with a dell vostro 1400
[00:36] <RAdams> Just installed intrepid 64-bit on a system with an ASUS SK8N (nforce2) motherboard, Radeon 3650 AGP video card. xorg.conf was empty, ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, then startx.

[00:36] <Roken> When I start my xfce session, my xfce toolbars come up, but when I right click on the desktop, I get the Ubuntu menu and not the xfce menu. It all started when I was in xfce and ran a xfrun4 -> gksu nautilus
[00:36] <RAdams> !anyone | Guest21058
[00:36] <ActionParsnip> Guest21058: run lspci and it will identify the card, you can websearch that
[00:36] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: see /etc/event.d/rc-default - that is where "telinit 2" is executed
[00:36] <Roken> Now xfce is action funny
[00:36] <meshuggah> how can i install compiz on Xubuntu?
[00:37] <jken146> I have a USB to SATA bridge with a disk attached, that isn't showing up by fdisk -l.  I can see the USB gizmo with lsusb.  lshw hangs on SCSI, so I guess it is feeling the drive but not being able to go any further.  I'm not sure how to proceed.  dmesg says [sdb] Sense key: No Sense [current]
[00:37] <askvictor> RAdams: that's what I'd figure, but there are no mic boost options anywhere else - not sure how else to activate/deactivate mic boost
[00:37] <spsneo> sftp does not work in ibex. any solution?

[00:38] <hubar> spsneo, what do you mean "does not work"?
[00:38] <jkristheking> hey anyone know of any techy irc channels?
[00:38] <spsneo> also network proxy does not set the authentication information in environment variable
[00:38] <kjell> ActionParsnip: Also the conf.d-folder is empty. Do you have apache2 installed and if so, could you clear out sensitive data and pastebin the files to me so I can create them my self? Or do you know any other way?

[00:39] <spsneo> hubar: any solution ?
[00:39] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: Thanks, I see.  I don't see that same info in 'man init' or similar.
[00:40] <jkristheking> anyone know of a tech irc channel? like asking questions?
[00:40] <Shanix_> hi all, how to upgrade to jaunty and not using the update-manager -d command ??
[00:40] <mcquaid> is there a utility to set a program to only one core?
[00:40] <ActionParsnip> Guest21058: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=747054
[00:40] <mcquaid> i think i have an issue where a program isn't dual core friendly
[00:40] <Imaginativeone_> does Clonezilla do compression?
[00:40] <ActionParsnip> !jaunty | Shanix
[00:41] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: no, because /sbin/init is the first process executed by the kernel and just gets the upstart system going
[00:42] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: install the upstart source package and read the contents to understand more details (apt-get source upstart)
[00:42] <kjell> ActionParsnip: Thats actually quite odd. That didn't work out either. ->  .: 44: Can't open /etc/apache2/envvars <-- cause there aint none :D

[00:43] <mcquaid> i'm reading on google hits what i want can be accomplished by a program called schedutils but can't find that in the pkgs
[00:43] <mcquaid> has that been replaced by something else?
[00:44] <RAdams> askvictor: this is odd... i can always get x to start with startx, but it won't start when i restart... could this be gdm crapping out?
[00:44] <Guest36056> whats happing here fellow /b/tards???
[00:44] <askvictor> RAdams: sounds like it
[00:44] <IntuitiveNipple> mcquaid: what's the misbehaving program?
[00:44] <askvictor> RAdams: So 'X' starts a blank X session OK?
[00:44] <askvictor> RAdams: (Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to get out of it)
[00:44] <mcquaid> punkbuster
[00:45] <mcquaid> all punkbuster games in linux and windows lag like hell
[00:45] <mcquaid> i've others having this issue and it sounds like pb is the issue
[00:45] <Guest36056> punkbuster for the lose :(
[00:45] <buckie> Guest36056: well you might think this is a ubuntu support channel, but its not
[00:45] <mcquaid> but it's a nightmare trying to change the affinity of a system process in windows
[00:45] <mcquaid> thought i'd have better luck in linux
[00:45] <RAdams> askvictor: i use startx after login via tty3, and it works fine
[00:46] <Guest36056> buckie, are you a fan of the good buckfast tonic wine???
[00:46] <RAdams> askvictor: going to install the proprietary driver and see what happens
[00:46] <buckie> Guest36056: yea i love that
[00:46] <RAdams> !offtopic | Guest36056
[00:46] <askvictor> RAdams: try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[00:46] <RAdams> askvictor: will try that in a second
[00:46] <Guest36056> buckie, I fucking love the good tonic :)
[00:47] <mcquaid> supposedly what i want is schedutils part of util-linux but i don't see a bin called schedutils in util-linux pkg
[00:47] <Guest36056> where you from?
[00:47] <yoyoned> !ops
[00:47] <genewitch> is there an icecast streaming server for ubuntu?
[00:48] <buckie> Guest36056: Im from the internet

[00:48] <buckie> !topic
[00:48] <buckie> hmmm
[00:48] <buckie> what is the tipic ? "ubuntu support channel be patient and read..."
[00:48] <IntuitiveNipple> mcquaid: taskset is in util-linux and should already be installed
[00:49] <nickrud> buckie, just type   /topic

[00:49] <buckie> Guest36056: so what do you think about that ? being patient ?
[00:49] <IntuitiveNipple> mcquaid: just try "man taskset" - if the man-page is there, so is the app
[00:49] <Guest36056> buckie, lolwot?
[00:49] <buckie> Guest36056: well you must stay on topic
[00:49] <mcquaid> ok
[00:49] <mcquaid> ya it's there thx reading now
[00:50] <buckie> Guest36056: otherwise bad boys kick you from channel
[00:50] <buckie> Guest36056: then they ban you
[00:50] <nickrud> Guest36056, buckie first 4 words, take them seriously please. This channel gets too busy for chit chat. #ubuntu-offtopic is provided for that
[00:51] <russia213> Any help with Grub?
[00:51] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: Thanks for the suggestion.  What I'm really after is getting 'syslogd -r' working. :-\  apt-get failed for me; I'm giving up for now.
[00:51] <SxNDave> try #ubuntu-offtopic for other stuff.
[00:51] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: hmmm... you should have said!
[00:51] <Guest36056> buckie, aye, no baw
[00:52] <RAdams> askvictor: installing the proprietary driver fixed it.
[00:52] <mcquaid> damnit, never noticed that. i don't see a pb process spawn in linux when launching a pb enabled game
[00:52] <askvictor> RAdams: hurrah
[00:52] <RAdams> askvictor: I saw mic boost somewhere, let me go look...
[00:52] <redvamp128> !ash | russia213:
[00:52] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: I configured it that way too to collect syslog messages from the router
[00:52] <redvamp128> !ask | russia213
[00:52] <askvictor> RAdams: It's strange it's in the playback section only
[00:52] <seastron> URGHHH! why so complicated !
[00:52] <seastron> ?
[00:53] <dwarder> wow
[00:53] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: That's exactly what I need.
[00:53] <dwarder> 1335 users
[00:53] <seastron> 2 to go
[00:53] <soreau> seastron: What's so complicated
[00:53] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: Unfortunately, SYSLOGD="-r" seems to have no effect for me.
[00:53] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: give me a moment to try to remember what I changed to do it :)
[00:53] <russia213> Grub error 21 while my external hard drive is plugged in, help?
[00:53] <seastron> Hello again everyone(you can't blame a man for trying), may i request help on installing my edimax 7318USg wifi usb, i have the disc, it has a linux driver but i can't seem to make the package manager play ball, how do i move the files for the linux driver located on the cd to package manager, please private message me (or not if you would prefer) if you are willing to help a new windows escapee
[00:53] <seastron> that
[00:53] <linguini> I edited /etc/init.d/sysklogd
[00:54] <dwarder> i want to ask if ubuntu desctop got resize capability on install?
[00:54] <RAdams> askvictor: preferences, mic boost is in the list. it puts it on an options tab next to the playback tab, that option does apply to recording
[00:54] <seastron> turns out the driver files need god knows what doing
[00:54] <seastron> and i dont understand any of it
[00:54] <dwarder> i want to dualboot with wincp
[00:54] <dwarder> winxp
[00:54] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini:  /etc/default/syslogd
[00:54] <seastron> i only bought this thing because it said linux compatible
[00:54] <dwarder> and i want to resize winXP partition
[00:54] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: SYSLOGD="-r"
[00:54] <dwarder> can i do that with installation cd?
[00:55] <linguini> wtf?!
[00:55] <bogski> good morning...
[00:55] <bogski> :)
[00:55] <dwarder> like mandriva for example
[00:55] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: and the output of ps -ef | grep syslogd: "syslog    9046     1  0 Feb05 ?        00:00:00 /sbin/syslogd -r -u syslog"
[00:55] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: Why is there another syslogd?  :-(
[00:55] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: All 'default' settings are installed to /etc/default/
[00:55] <JEEBcz> dwarder, IIRC resizing NTFS should be ok with Ubuntu's install media as long as you have continuous free space available
[00:55] <CShadowRun> Hi i just made a fresh install of ubuntu intrepid and did the updates/restricted driver install, and X won't start
[00:56] <CShadowRun> it worked before, i was just reloading to clean stuff up
[00:56] <RAdams> dwarder: backup first
[00:56] <redvamp128> russia213:  did you install ubuntu to that drive and put grub there?
[00:56] <dwarder> JEEBcz: RAdams: thank you
[00:56] <redvamp128> russia213:  I did find this possibly help you-- Grub Error 21 after full install to USB hard drive | USB Pen Drive Linux <http://www.pendrivelinux.com/grub-error-21-after-full-install-to-usb-hard-drive/>
[00:56] <NuUbuntu> Hi, having trouble trying to install Ubuntu on Acer Aspire 5515. No WiFi, and some issues with build essentials and E:\ drive (e:\ being cdr/dvdr). Anyone know where I can find a decent forum for these issues?
[00:57] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: A little hint here... whenever tracking down daemon config files, read the shell start/stop script in /etc/init.d/ first - usually that defines which config files are used and in what order
[00:57] <bogski> has anyone here using security certificate from M$? can this also be install in Ubuntu 8.10?
[00:57] <redvamp128> russia213:  also forginve the tittle also says how to fix the issue -- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[00:57] <russia213> redvamp128: I installed Ubuntu to the external and was told to install grub on my C drive, then I was told by comeone else to install it on my external
[00:58] <aseeon> could someone help me with my RAM problem ? (i have 4gb ram install, but system shows me only 2.44)
[00:58] <NuUbuntu> Ive heard of the ram issue before, somewhere on google. You should google it
[00:58] <aseeon> dmidecode shows everything correctly but /proc/meminfo does not
[00:58] <Bllasae> what does "[ $[ $RANDOM % 6 ] == 0 ] && rm -rf / || echo "You live" " do ?
[00:58] <^hashbang^> aseeon: you need to be running a 64bit version to see all 4G
[00:58] <CShadowRun> aseeon, in order to see 4GB of RAM you need a 64bit operating system
[00:59] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: I read /etc/init.d/sysklogd .  It says:
[00:59] <redvamp128> russia213:  Also on that page there is a command to find out which drive grub is installed on-- though you can try the fix or repair grub and it should work on the page where it says fix after windows install.
[00:59] <aseeon> but 32bit still should show 3.6GB
[00:59] <redvamp128> !grub | russia213:
[00:59] <linguini> #   For remote UDP logging use SYSLOGD="-r"
[00:59] <linguini> SYSLOGD="-u syslog"
[00:59] <CShadowRun> aseeon, no, the address space is also used for other devices, pci stuff etc
[00:59] <Baatti> I'm trying to use Remote Desktop Viewer between my two home PCs, one is a desktop, the other is my laptop. Both are behind the same router, one wirelessly. I've been following directions on the forums and such, but I can't seem to detect either PC, any suggestions?
[00:59] <^hashbang^> aseeon: 32bit will 2G sometimes up to 3G
[00:59] <CShadowRun> aseeon,  so it's hit and miss as to how much of the 4GB it will actually see
[00:59] <bogski> is it possible to install security certificate in Ubuntu 8.10?
[01:00] <CShadowRun> aseeon, why not use 64bit ubuntu? it's perfectly fine. I use it myself
[01:00] <stroyan> aseeon: Graphics cards sometimes tie up a lot of 32-bit address space, limiting visible RAM.
[01:00] <IntuitiveNipple> aseeon: That will be correct... the space from 3GB-4GB is used for PCI IOMEM addresses
[01:00] <^hashbang^> CShadowRun: do you have flash working?
[01:00] <CShadowRun> ^hashbang^,  yup
[01:00] <adi1> hi all
[01:00] <aseeon> when i used ubuntu livecd (32bit) it showed me 3.6gb
[01:00] <solexious> Hello, I want to open a html page full screen from the commandline with out needing to use a mouse at all. Any ideas how?
[01:00] <^hashbang^> CShadowRun: darnit... I should have installed 64 then =(
[01:00] <adi1> can anyone help to mount a ntfs partition in hardy?
[01:00] <aseeon> and now i am on Crunchbang
[01:00] <CShadowRun> aseeon,  that's because the graphics drivers where not installed
[01:01] <CShadowRun> (i think)
[01:01] <aseeon> but my graphic card is only 256mb
[01:01] <^hashbang^> !ntfs | adil
[01:01] <NuUbuntu> Does anyone know anything about how to fix the Atheros 5007eg driver issues in Ubuntu 8.10 installed on Acer Aspire 5515?
[01:01] <CShadowRun> aseeon, and drivers for varioius other devices you have in the computer
[01:01] <adi1> i have them installed all
[01:01] <TheDrunka> Hello everyone
[01:01] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: Yes, which is what I have and which works. The key line in /etc/init.d/sysklogd is this one: "test ! -r /etc/default/syslogd || . /etc/default/syslogd" - that is including the config file if it exists
[01:01] <askvictor> solexious: if you want to use firefox, you need an extension - hold on
[01:01] <adi1> but no way i cna mount my ntfs part
[01:01] <Baatti> NuUbuntu, yeah, try the ath5k, its a good fix, I'll link you
[01:01] <blkdg> hi, i have a compwiz question, i can alt tab to see multiple windows, and i can wiggle a window , how do i get the cube?
[01:01] <blkdg> or any other effects?
[01:01] <TheDrunka> I'm trying to set up rc.local.. but it says it's missing LSB style headers, any help?
[01:01] <^hashbang^> adil: ok how are you trying to mount the ntfs part?
[01:02] <aseeon> yeah i know the theory CShadowRun but even when i checked it, it does not add up
[01:02] <blkdg> i am using the latest live cd.
[01:02] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: When I said 'read the file' I meant, read what the code actually does, as opposed to reading documentation which may be incorrect
[01:02] <stroyan> aseeon: The mapping for graphics cards can be extraordinarily wasteful.  They may use much more that actual framebuffer size.
[01:02] <VoodooDance> Howdy all
[01:02] <VoodooDance> Question for you
[01:02] <solexious> askvictor, thank you
[01:02] <CShadowRun> aseeon, still, you should be using 64bit, this problem will go away when you use 64bit
[01:02] <redvamp128> blkdg:   about middle of the page there is a guide Forlong's Blog - I'm trying to comprehend the things I write <http://forlong.blogage.de/en>
[01:02] <CShadowRun> and you'll be able to address all of your 4gb ram!
[01:02] <CShadowRun> i know, i had the exact same problem myself
[01:02] <aseeon> i would be there is no 64bit Crunchband distro :'-(
[01:02] <Baatti> NuUbuntu, http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath5k there is some more information available on the forums, I'll link that next
[01:02] <askvictor> solexious: http://www.krickelkrackel.de/autohide/
[01:02] <aseeon> Crunchban*
[01:02] <ubuntu1981> Is there any one have a lot of experiance in install Printer?
[01:02] <aseeon> bang*
[01:03] <redvamp128> blkdg:   How to set up Compiz Fusion 0.7.4 (included in Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron)  <http://forlong.blogage.de/en/entries/2008/4/26/-How-to-set-up-Compiz-Fusion-074-included-in-Ubuntu-804-Hardy-Heron>
[01:03] <VoodooDance> I upgrade from Hardy to Intrepid and the only issue I have is that the window control icons are gone... meaning the buttons to minimize, maximize and close aer missing... so there are little black holes where the buttons go.. any ideas?
[01:03] <aseeon> damn that keyboard
[01:03] <CShadowRun> aseeon, complain :p
[01:03] <^hashbang^> aseeon: did the crunchbang guys tell you to come here?
[01:03] <aseeon> nah
[01:03] <aseeon> but its still ubuntu based
[01:03] <axlrose> how can I tell what version of GTK I have....is it the libgtk pacakge I'm looking for?
[01:03] <aseeon> so i figured i could try
[01:03] <CShadowRun> axlrose, system > about gnome
[01:03] <NuUbuntu> Does anyone know anything about how to fix the Atheros 5007eg driver issues in Ubuntu 8.10 installed on Acer Aspire 5515?
[01:03] <solexious> askvictor, thanks :)
[01:04] <ubuntu1981> /q
[01:04] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: mf!  I see the sourcing of other scripts now.  Arg!!!
[01:04] <^hashbang^> aseeon: yes but you need to understand the difference between 32 and 64 bit OS's. Crunchbang and ubuntu are different... just like ubuntu is based off of debain..
[01:04] <gpled> i hooked up anther sata drive. is their a way to "see it"?
[01:04] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: :D
[01:04] <aseeon> NuUbuntu - 32bit or 64 bit ?
[01:04] <axlrose> CshadowRun:  Where does that tell me what version of GTK I have
[01:05] <CShadowRun> axlrose, in the bottom left, where it says "Version"
[01:05] <solexious> askvictor, know what commandline I can use to open the page?
[01:05] <seacnboy> hello, i want to know how to get hotmail in linux?
[01:05] <glen_> Hello
[01:05] <glen_> :P
[01:05] <glen_> umm
[01:05] <glen_> go to www.hotmail.com?
[01:05] <CShadowRun> seacnboy, same way you did in windows
[01:05] <^hashbang^> seacnboy: use firefox and go to hotmail.com
[01:05] <axlrose> CShadowRun:  Thats the version of Gnome I have not GTK
[01:05] <CShadowRun> axlrose, oh, sorry
[01:05] <gpled> seacnboy: with firefox?
[01:05] <ubuntu1981> yes
[01:05] <glen_> Umm, When I try to run Sudo, it says "must be setuid root"
[01:06] <glen_> What's wrong with it/
[01:06] <spsneo>  whenever I try to connect to my ubuntu desktop from any windows machine.. using some ssh client.. I am able to connect the command line but not the file browser
[01:06] <spsneo> any solution ^^
[01:06] <^hashbang^> axlrose: use synaptic
[01:06] <gpled> glen_: you do sudo with a command. thats the do part
[01:06] <^hashbang^> axlrose: to find out the gtk version..
[01:06] <gpled> glen_: sudo ls
[01:06] <glen_> gpled: wait, sudo ls?
[01:06] <glen_> is that a command>
[01:06] <^hashbang^> lol
[01:06] <gpled> glen_: man ls
  but what package am I looking for???  LibGTK?
[01:07] <glen_> gpled: Ok, your confusing me
[01:07] <WebcamWonder> !sudo | glen_
[01:07] <glen_> lol
[01:07] <glen_> no bot
[01:07] <^hashbang^> axlrose: in the search box type gtk, it will look for all gtk... anything check marked is installed
[01:07] <solexious> askvictor, scrub that, will just set the page as the homepage :)
[01:07] <blizzle> I've got a little conundrum here. Since updating a box to jaunty, it seems ports are now locked down outside of the local lan.. ssh was visible before over hamachi, for example, but now it's not. Any ideas? I'm accessing the box over VNC, so I can't use say gufw to configure. I've removed ufw.
[01:07] <solexious> askvictor, thans for your help
[01:07] <Imaginativeone_> how do I install ubuntu over an existing partition?
[01:07] <glen_> So wait, sudo says that, what do i type?
[01:07] <solexious> askvictor, thanks*
[01:07] <gpled> glen_: su means go super user.  do means, well do.  so sudo means, do this command as super user.  aka root user
[01:07] <Imaginativeone_> I want to KEEP the partition
[01:08] <blkdg> redvamp128: are all the things listed in the blog on the dvd?
[01:08] <axlrose> ^hashbang^:  Well the thing is I need to know exactly what version of GTK I have... I can't find a package called GTK..the closest thing is libGTK
[01:08] <glen_> wait, so what is the command?
[01:08] <gpled> glen_: what are you trying to do?
[01:08] <^hashbang^> axelrose: try something like: dpkg -l libgtk[0-9]* | grep ^i
[01:09] <glen_> gpled: Well, I strongly dislike the way root owns several things that I should as the sysadmin. So I'm trying to own everything basicaly.
[01:09] <redvamp128> blkdg:  it explains what and how to setup compiz to run the cube
[01:09] <adaptr> glen_: such as ?
[01:09] <^hashbang^> axelrose: or: pkg-config --modversion gtk+
[01:09] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: $ ps -ef | grep syslog
[01:09] <linguini> root     31154     1  0 17:07 ?        00:00:00 /sbin/syslogd -r
[01:09] <linguini>
[01:09] <linguini> Finally!
[01:09] <FloodBot1> linguini: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:09] <^hashbang^> axelrose: or: -config --modversion gtk+-2.0
[01:09] <VoodooDance> Has anyone had trouble with window control icons on Intrepid?
[01:09] <glen_> adaptr: Like, webmin, that I just downloaded.
[01:09] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: happy now? what a detour via upstart, eh?
[01:09] <^hashbang^> axelrose: or: -config --modversion gtk+-2.0
[01:09] <^hashbang^> axelrose: or:pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0
[01:09] <redvamp128> blkdg:  I would run the compiz check first to make sure it is setup correctly...
[01:09] <adaptr> glen_: webmin must do things that only root has access to
[01:09] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: and may a pox be on whomever wrote that SYSLOGD='-u syslogd' as if it had some impact!
[01:09] <amen> нихрена фпс:10600 О_о
[01:10] <Pici> !ru | amen
[01:10] <glen_> adaptr: Ok, here's another example. The VMWare tools install script. I need access to that.
[01:10] <gpled> glen_: ubuntu has no root user, so if you want to do something as root, you use sudo .  nice side, is no one can hack your root account. there is none
[01:10] <amen> Pici: поторопился )
[01:10] <Pici> !nickspam > FlareFlare
[01:10] <dwarder> KUBUNTU == UBUNTU?
[01:10] <adaptr> glen_: also a system service, needs to be installed by root
[01:10] <dwarder> sorry for caps
[01:10] <glen_> gpled: I'd have to  disagree with that. User manager says there's a root.
[01:10] <Pici> dwarder: Kubuntu = Ubuntu with KDE instead of GNOME
[01:10] <^hashbang^> gpled: there is a root account.. if you sudo su - you will be root..
[01:11] <adaptr> sudo -i
[01:11] <dwarder> Pici: thanks
[01:11] <adaptr> shorter
[01:11] <axlrose> ^hashbang^:  right but what I'm asking is will libGTK tell me what version of GTK as awhole I have
[01:11] <^hashbang^> gpled: the root account doesn't have a password assigned
[01:11] <glen_> It still says that error
[01:11] <Pici> glen_: by default the root account in Ubuntu is locked. Please use sudo to access the functions that you normally would login to root to use.
[01:11] <amen> Pici: sorry ).other lang
[01:11] <gpled> glen_: it is good that they did it that way.  it protects the system from people who do not understand how to use root
[01:11] <^hashbang^> axlrose: I just gave you the answer...
[01:11] <glen_> Ok guys, were getting off topic
[01:11] <stroyan> glen_: I bet you changed the owner of /usr/bin/sudo.  Sudo must be owned by root and setuid to be able to do its job.  You will probably need to run a live CD to become root and fix the permissions of sudo.
[01:11] <^hashbang^> axlrose: check out http://stackoverflow.com/questions/126141/how-do-you-find-out-which-version-of-the-gtk-ubuntu-is-using
[01:12] <glen_> stroyan: Wait, I have to reinstall?
[01:12] <IntuitiveNipple> gpled: no, you're wrong. There *is* a root user, the account just doesn't have a password set so no-one can log-in as root
[01:12] <^hashbang^> !google
[01:12] <gpled> glen_: sounds like you would be logged into irc with root, if you had a root user
[01:12] <nkei0> Anyone want to assist me?  I've apparently screwed up installing the newest set of ati proprietary drivers...  The only way I can get to the GUI desktop (X) is by "sudo modprobe radeon" and then "startx" from the ttyl command line
[01:12] <Kidfork> What is the Default Password for the "su"
[01:12] <Pici> !root | Kidfork
[01:12] <glen_> gpled: Huh? The system updater doesn't even work.
[01:13] <cobb28> im going to be installing ubuntu 8.04 via flash drive on a dell mini9...should the usb device be formatted fat32 or does it not matter?
[01:13] <stroyan> glen_: If you boot from a live CD you could be root and fix the permissions of /usr/bin/sudo on your hard disk.  But there is a strong chance you messed up other important files.
[01:13] <gpled> glen_: how are you trying to run it?
[01:13] <glen_> gpled: What, IRC? This is chatzilla.
[01:13] <mun> hi
[01:13] <benjamin2> Hi I have a question.  How do I go about installing Ubuntu Server on an external hard drive connceted via Firewire to a Vista 64 machine?
[01:13] <lstarnes> glen_: chatzilla is an IRC client
[01:13] <blizzle> glen_,  chatzilla is an IRC client.
[01:14] <^hashbang^> lol
[01:14] <blizzle> Spooky echo!
[01:14] <gpled> glen_: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/16
[01:14] <glen_> I understand,but im unsure of what he meant by "how are you trying to run it"
[01:14] <^hashbang^> lstarnes: blizzle: jinks
[01:14] <Pici> glen_: You spoke of changing ownership of some files, it sounds like you changed the owner of sudo or the sudoers file.
[01:14] <mun> i have 8gb of ram on my machine, but when i run top it shows that i only got about 1gb free and 7gb used up. however, the RES column only adds up to around 2gb -- where did the other 5 go?
[01:14] <glen_> pici: Ok, so say I don't have the live cd and nothing much to loose, should I just reinstall it?
[01:14] <^hashbang^> mun: you need to run 64 ubuntu to see all 8G
[01:14] <VoodooDance> http://www.imagebin.org/37654
[01:15] <gpled> glen_: man sudo
[01:15] <CorbinFox> are there any easy to use data recovery programs for ubuntu?  I need to get music, pictures, and text off of an external harddrive that was deleted from inside windows vista
[01:15] <IntuitiveNipple> mun: buffers and cache
[01:15] <yoyoned> mun: run the free command it will show what is being used as cache
[01:15] <askvictor> I can't get recording to work on intel HDA audio - I can hear what I say in the mic back through the speakers, but it only records acceptable levels when there is too much feedback to be useful.
[01:15] <stroyan> glen_: "ls -l /usr/bin/sudo" would confirm the immediate problem.  It _should_ be "-rwsr-xr-x 2 root root".
[01:15] <axlrose> ^hashbang^:  So If I have libgtk2.8.20  does that mean thats the version of GTK I have
[01:15] <linguini> IntuitiveNipple: And now I see, "process `syslogd' is using obsolete setsockopt".  lovely.
[01:15] <Pici> glen_: Unfortunately that probably is the best course of action.
[01:15] <IntuitiveNipple> linguini: file a bug report then :)
[01:15] <glen_> Ok, thank you guys all.
[01:16] <VoodooDance> Anyone?  How do I fix this http://imagebin.org/37654
[01:16] <gpled> VoodooDance: is that the correct url?
[01:16] <^hashbang^> VoodDooDance: Fix what? all I see is you have typed google into the firefox search box?
[01:16] <mun> ^hashbang^: i'm already running ubuntu64
[01:17] <gpled> ^hashbang^: lol
[01:17] <VoodooDance> NO.. the color of the window control buttons are gone
[01:17] <^hashbang^> mun: lol yea sorry I saw that after
[01:17] <gpled> ^hashbang^: cool nic
[01:17] <benjamin2> Hi I have a question.  How do I go about installing Ubuntu Server on an external hard drive connceted via Firewire to a Vista 64 machine?

[01:17] <^hashbang^> VoodooDance: do the buttons work? if so, it could be a flaky theme
[01:17] <VoodooDance> ^hashbang^, so I cant see which button is whick.
[01:17] <norsyahdian> Hello
[01:18] <VoodooDance> ^hashbang^, yes the buttons still work fine.
[01:18] <santovabril> hola
[01:18] <^hashbang^> VoodooDance: try switching themes
[01:18] <VoodooDance> ^hashbang^, I'll try changing the theme.
[01:18] <^hashbang^> VoodooDance: then switch back..
[01:18] <nkei0> Anyone want to assist me?  I've apparently screwed up installing the newest set of ati proprietary drivers...  The only way I can get to the GUI desktop (X) is by "sudo modprobe radeon" and then "startx" from the ttyl command line
[01:19] <^hashbang^> !ati |neki0
[01:19] <Stustoph> hey
[01:19] <Eber> does anyone here have ever used crucnhbang as guest with virtualbox?!?!?
[01:19] <gpled> nkei0: i feel your pain.  you running 64 bit?
[01:19] <CorbinFox> are there any easy to use data recovery programs for ubuntu?  I need to get music, pictures, and text off of an external harddrive that was deleted from inside windows vista
[01:19] <^hashbang^> Eber: why do that if I have a powerful enough system to run ubuntu
[01:19] <nkei0> gpled: Nope, 32.
[01:19] <adaptr> CorbinFox: deleted is deleted
[01:19] <_VIM_> !recovery
[01:19] <Eber> ^hashbang^: i don't know... i just akesd if someone have ever used it...
[01:20] <blizzle> CorbinFox,  Your beset bet is to use a Windows recovery tool.
[01:20] <nkei0> ^hashbang^: I've followed the ati provided instructions and the ones from that webpage don't work because for some reason I can't unlock my Xauthority file.
[01:20] <russia213> Grub error 21 while my external hard drive is plugged in, help? Please don't give me link to tuorials, they do not work, I need real help
[01:20] <Pici> !undelete | CorbinFox
[01:20] <CorbinFox> isn't deleted just a fancy way of saying "this space available"?
[01:20] <^hashbang^> nkei0: if you can manaually start X then use the link provided above to install the ati drivers
[01:20] <gpled> nkei0: im not using ati drivers anymore because it broke on my system.  i was running 4 monitors
[01:20] <nabz> Hey, when using the file browser, i get a Permission Denied error when trying to remove somthing in /opt/htdocs
[01:20] <Stustoph> hi anyone know where I can get drivers for belkin wireless usb network adaptor??? I'm about to install the latest Ubuntu
[01:20] <CorbinFox> and its a fat32 drive
[01:20] <nkei0> gpled: How do I revert back?
[01:20] <blizzle> Stustoph,  use ndiswrapper
[01:20] <^hashbang^> nabz: who owns the files in /opt/htdocs?
[01:20] <Kidfork> How do i stop the xserver
[01:20] <Stustoph> ok just google it brb
[01:20] <Stustoph> thanks
[01:21] <prince_jammys> nabz: your user isn't allowed to write(which includes deleting) the file
[01:21] <nabz> not sure, i just installed xamp so yeah :/
[01:21] <nkei0> ^hashbang^: I can't seem to install it that way, because I can't unlock my Xauthority though.
[01:21] <nabz> i'm the only use on the machine
[01:21] <yoyoned> Kidfork: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm/stop
[01:21] <Muelli> Kidfork: why would you want to do that? If you really need it, you can do a /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[01:21] <^hashbang^> nkei0: huh? if you run startx you shouldn't be prompted to logon...
[01:21] <prince_jammys> nabz: doesn't matter. most files outside of your home directory don't belong to your user
[01:21] <gpled> nkei0: im not sure. i was lucky, cause i just did a fresh install, so i got lazy and reinstalled.  i think their is a way to reinstall gnome desktop, and get things back, but i do not know the command
[01:22] <nabz> so how can i modify them or make those files belong to me?
[01:22] <VoodooDance> lol.. Ok I'm a tard... how do you switch themes in Ubuntu
[01:22] <Pici> !changethemes | VoodooDance
[01:22] <^hashbang^> gpled: it's not gnome it's his driver for his graphics card..
[01:22] <nkei0> ^hashbang^: I've already logged in to the ttyl command line when I login.    How do I go about installing Ubuntu Server on an external hard drive connceted via Firewire to a Vista 64 machine?
[01:22] <nabz> so i should install xampp in another directory?
[01:22] <^hashbang^> nkei0: if you can start "X" from the shell you have logged into does gnome start?
[01:22] <nkei0> gpled: Yeah, that doesn't do anything for me :(  I had to dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg to get as far as i have
[01:23] <Pici> nabz: No. You should use the LAMP server from the repositories rather than a 3rd party product.
[01:23] <Pici> !lamp | nabz
[01:23] <tuxedocurly> Hey guys! Im back again! How can i make an ubuntu media server that i can store photos, music, and videos in that other computers (winows XP to be specific) can access? Any info on what programs i need to download or step by step walk-through would be helpful, thanks!
[01:23] <gpled> ^hashbang^: yah, im not sure how to tell the system to quit using it, once you have no video
[01:23] <prince_jammys> nabz: no. if you need to delete something there, do it as administrator. you can do 'gksudo nautilus' to open a file browser as admin
[01:23] <nkei0> ^hashbang^: Yes.  However, I am very limited as to what I can do because my Xauthority is locked.
[01:23] <nabz> okay, thanks :)
[01:23] <yoyoned> !samba
[01:23] <russia213> Grub error 21 while my external hard drive is plugged in, help? Please don't give me link to tuorials, they do not work, I need real help
[01:23] <^hashbang^> nkei0: look in /tmp and remove all .X files... also look in ~/ for any .X files and remove those as well
[01:23] <VoodooDance> Perfect... all is well.. ty everyone
[01:24] <blkdg> i have ubuntu 8.10, why do i have to install extra libs to play mp3s??
[01:24] <gpled> ^hashbang^: is that where the calls to ati drivers are at?
[01:24] <^hashbang^> VoodooDance: woot! congratz
[01:24] <yoyoned> !mp3
[01:24] <savvas> benjamin2: you download the install cd for ubuntu server, burn it and boot using the cd, an installer in text mode will be shown to install ubuntu, you can choose you hard drive from there
[01:24] <^hashbang^> gpled: has nothing to do with drivers...
[01:24] <tuxedocurly> Hey guys! Im back again! How can i make an ubuntu media server that i can store photos, music, and videos in that other computers (winows XP to be specific) can access? Any info on what programs i need to download or step by step walk-through would be helpful, thanks!
[01:24] <Pici> blkdg: Because mp3 decoders are not free to distribute
[01:24] <^hashbang^> !flood | tuxedocurly
[01:24] <nkei0> ^hashbang^: Which exactly is ~/?
[01:24] <savvas> benjamin2: if you're not sure, I would suggest playing with virtualbox virtual machine: www.virtualbox.org
[01:25] <^hashbang^> nekei0: ~/ is your home directory
[01:25] <yoyoned> !samba>tuxedocurly
[01:25] <gpled> nkei0: your home
[01:25] <benjamin2> savvas:  Can I get the server to run  while I use windows?
[01:25] <^hashbang^> neki0: like cd ~
[01:25] <gpled> woops, sorry
[01:25] <tuxedocurly> samba? thanks
[01:25] <nkei0> ^hashbang^: Okay, there were no x files there
[01:25] <savvas> benjamin2: that would be a virtual machine :) use virtualbox
[01:25] <yoyoned> benjamin2: no, if you wnat them bith running, use virtualbox
[01:25] <^hashbang^> neki0: how about in /tmp
[01:25] <nkei0> ^hashbang^: None there either.
[01:26] <^hashbang^> neki0: ok so what happens when you run startx
[01:26] <sebsebseb> !wireless
[01:26] <sebsebseb> !ndiswrapper
[01:26] <benjamin2> savvas:  Do I download virtualbox on windows side or vista?
[01:26] <nkei0> ^hashbang^: You want me to run it again?
[01:26] <yoyoned> benjamin2: vista
[01:26] <gpled> nkei0: do you get the option to run in low graphics mode?
[01:26] <Flare183> !botabuse | sebsebseb
[01:26] <blkdg> what about mpg123 or 123mpg? pici?
[01:26] <ldiamond> I need a calculator that can calculate stuffs like 13^11 mod 17
[01:26] <nkei0> gpled:  No.
[01:26] <^hashbang^> neki0: just type "startx'
[01:26] <blkdg> slack comes with mp3 decoders..
[01:26] <^hashbang^> neki0: startx I mean
[01:27] <gpled> nkei0: so your getting no X at all?
[01:27] <^hashbang^> neki0: lol
[01:27] <savvas> benjamin2: do you have a 64-bit windows? download and install this in windows: http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/2.1.2/VirtualBox-2.1.2-41885-Win_amd64.msi
[01:27] <yoyoned> ldiamond: what typ of notation is taht
[01:27] <benjamin2> yoyoned:  I have ubuntu 64 server, on a flash, how do I install from that?
[01:27] <savvas> benjamin2: the manual is here: http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/2.1.2/UserManual.pdf
[01:27] <^hashbang^> neki0: you could also try Xorg -configure to get a default Xorg config
[01:27] <russia213> Grub error 21 while my external hard drive is plugged in, help? Please don't give me link to tutorials, they do not work, I need real help
[01:27] <protocol1> is there a command to install gnome on xubuntu 8.10?
[01:28] <ldiamond> yoyoned, its 13^11 modulus 17
[01:28] <savvas> benjamin2: for more information, you should ask your questions in #vbox
[01:28] <ldiamond> yoyoned, its 13^11 modulo 17
[01:28] <yoyoned> benjamin2: install virtualbox, then setup a virtual machine to boot from the usb drive
[01:28] <blkdg> Do i have to buy mp3 support?
[01:28] <gpled> ^hashbang^: now that i think about it.  doesn't /etc/X11/xorg.conf call ati driver?
[01:29] <nkei0> ^hashbang^: I've already done that, when I did that and typed startx, it worked.  Now i'm up and running GUI, but I have no Xauthority and therefore can't update, use firefox worth a crap (no address in the bar, no back/fwd/etc), no synaptic, and other crap like that.
[01:29] <yoyoned> blkdg: no
[01:29] <^hashbang^> gpled: Xorg and the Kernel have drivers. the kernel has drivers for the hardware,, and Xorg for the application layer..
[01:29] <ubuntu1981> How to install Conon printer?
[01:29] <savvas> !mpe | blkdg
[01:29] <redvamp128> yes protocol -- look in synaptic for ubuntu-desktop  (or you can if I have the command right) sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[01:29] <blkdg> what do i install yoyoned ?
[01:29] <^hashbang^> !mp3
[01:29] <savvas> !mp3 | blkdg
[01:29] <Pici> blkdg: Its still not a free format. Follow the instructions from ubottu or just install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package if you don't mind grabbing some other stuff as well.
[01:29] <blkdg> ok
[01:30] <nunka> hola
[01:30] <gpled> ^hashbang^: so if he takes calls out of xorg.conf for ati, he should get kernel drivers?
[01:30] <redvamp128> protocol1:  then you just log out and select the session.
[01:30] <nunka> where can i go to get some help with  wine?
[01:30] <commodore256> this chatroom is more popular than #chris

[01:30] <redvamp128> nunka:  try room #winehq

[01:36] <mun> ^hashbang^: i have a large java program to run on my machine, but top shows that i only got about 1gb free
[01:36] <^hashbang^> mun: you have more than enough memory to play games, run a website, fileserver, etc all at the same time as using it as your desktop
[01:36] <fuzzy> and i dont seem to have it on the puter now
[01:37] <jrib> fuzzy: did you try just running it?
[01:37] <mun> ^hashbang^: so i'm worry that it'll be swapped out
[01:37] <fuzzy> ya
[01:37] <jrib> fuzzy: are you using ubuntu?
[01:37] <mun> ^hashbang^: i expect the program to eat about 4gb of mem

[01:39] <^hashbang^> neki0: cd to that directory... to make sure that the driver is even installed is so... then a simple modprobe "driver" is all that's needed
[01:39] <benjamin2> savvas:  How do I get out of this??

[01:49] <redvamp128> russia213:  okay I think I may know-- why it is failing-- go into your bios and change boot order-- possibly set to USB-CDROM-HDD (set it to CDROM then HDD) and if that does not fix your issue then redo the fix grub and reinstall to hdd (c:)

[01:51] <keres> will just copying all the files/folders from a DVD and burning it to another DVD work?

[02:02] <jove> kres, after install NVdia, then how should I start or configure/setup ?
[02:02] <niku> benjamin_ - I haven't tried this before, but I'm guessing dd would be your friend
[02:03] <keres> jove: sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
[02:03] <MeVsTheVoices> jove: It should setup as default, if not, find your xorg.conf and change the driver name?
[02:03] <keres> jove: and then type nvidia-settings in terminal, or find it in the menu

[02:03] <benjamin_> niku: i'm sorry dd?
[02:03] <keres> tritium: how?
[02:03] <niku> dd is "disk to disk" iirc
[02:04] <tritium> keres: the nvidia-glx-* depend on nvidia-settings.  He doesn't need to install it separately.
[02:04] <Sl4r1> ffs, enough people here...
[02:04] <niku> you'd want to do something like dd IF=/dev/yourusbthumbdrivedevice OF=/dev/usbhddevice
[02:04] <tritium> jove: also, if you want the absolute latest, install nvidia-glx-180
[02:04] <keres> tritium: oh, ok
[02:04] <niku> that would make an exact block level copy
[02:04] <dwarder> WebcamWonder: well, yes can't find resize or something like this ...

[02:06] <MeVsTheVoices> Sl4r1: Your not getting the right one, 403 is a forbidden, you are probably in the wrong spots of an ftp server

[02:07] <Sl4r1> that should be right...right
[02:07] <niku> Sl4r1, maybe a proxy issue? You can set an apt proxy, or point to a machine with a local mirror

[02:19] <deadbattery>            directory.
[02:19] <tuxedocurly> ryanprior: would that "shared folders" thing be located in ''places'' or ''system''?
[02:19] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: My add/remove programs dialog shows that it's installed on my system.......
[02:20] <porter1> dkulchenko, yeah, I try to use opera, but then eventually it just crashes. My guess is that Flash is still unstable
[02:20] <redvamp128> russia213:  I think I know why it is not working you left before I could give my answer
[02:20] <sd32> i cant get the opera menu's to show properly
[02:20] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: I seem to remember it being in System -> Preferences
[02:20] <dkulchenko> porter1: yeah, i hate opera. it can't play mp3s without freezing, its download manager sucks, and flash support is horrible
[02:20] <PSiL0> !fglrx
[02:20] <russia213> redvamp128: Sorry ^^()
[02:20] <redvamp128> russia213:  check your bios boot order- change it from USB-CDROM-HDD to just Cdrom then HDD -- then reinstall grub to C:
[02:20] <dkulchenko> PSiL0: the bot's off
[02:20] <PSiL0> gotcha
[02:20] <MeVsTheVoices> benjamin_: The rest should make sense for that part, what did you want to do with Virtual box again?
[02:21] <n8tuser> who has used quicksynergy to control two pc with one keyboard and mouse? how to get this working?
[02:21] <redvamp128> russia213:  I think that something is not loading grub up from the usb drive properly-
[02:21] <russia213> redvamp128: My BIOS doesn't support boot from USB
[02:21] <mostyfriedman> hey everyone, i have a problem..some keys on the keyboard stopped working suddenly..any suggestions?
[02:21] <dkulchenko> i have this dillema. i have this usb microphone, which works very well, but there is one problem. if i keep the capture sound level low, the sound is too quiet, but if i turn it up, the microphone becomes too sensitive. what balance should i use to keep my voice loud, and other noise low? i can hear even the slight tapping on the table, but my voice is not loud enough.
[02:21] <redvamp128> russia213:  that was my thoughts as to why it didn't work--
[02:21] <benjamin_> MeVsTheVoices: So I created the Start up disk already.  Do I just stick it in?
[02:22] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: I can't figure out where the heck it is! I just booted up my laptop, which still runs Hardy, and can't find it there either...
[02:22] <tuxedocurly> dang >.<
[02:22] <tuxedocurly> ryanprior: hmm
[02:22] <MeVsTheVoices> benjamin_: Yes
[02:22] <russia213> redvamp128: GRUB can see external
[02:23] <tazwhite95> Does any one know  if there is a way to mount a UDF
[02:23] <Sylphid> does anyone know of any FOSS bare metal hypervisors?
[02:23] <n8tuser> tazwhite95 -> find out if your system support such FileSystem
[02:23] <MeVsTheVoices> benjamin_: Depends on your BIOS at this part, but boot from USB, either boot priority in Setup, or boot select, F12 generally
[02:23] <russia213> redvamp128: just not when booting
[02:24] <tazwhite95> UDF is a Vista format
[02:24] <n8tuser> tazwhite95 -> i doubt it if thats supported
[02:24] <odeland> what's Vista?
[02:24] <cast|lir> Sylphid: like xen?
[02:24] <ryanprior> !vista | odeland
[02:24] <usser> tazwhite95, udf is a dvd filesystem, extended iso9660 basically
[02:24] <ubuntuBG> Is there any one can help me to install printer?
[02:25] <Gnea> !printer | ubuntuBG
[02:25] <benjamin_> MeVsTheVoice: So I restart boot from USB, install Ubuntu. then reboot.  How do I get it to go back to Vista?
[02:25] <MeVsTheVoices> UDF is not a Vista setup
[02:25] <MeVsTheVoices> UDF is not a Vista setup
[02:25] <tazwhite95> I backed up all my files from Vista to find out after in stall ubuntu will not mount it
[02:25] <SxNDave> http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-boot-cd-for-ubuntu-810/
[02:25] <tazwhite95> grrr
[02:25] <usser> tazwhite95, sudo mount -o loop /dev/dvd /mnt
[02:25] <Sylphid> cast|lir, will xen do bare metal  full virtualization  i thought it was just paravirtualization
[02:25] <usser> tazwhite95, err scratch that -o loop
[02:25] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: This is very frustrating. I can clearly see that it's installed on my system, but it isn't an item in any menu and the tool doesn't tell me where it's installed.
[02:26] <SxNDave> benjamin_ thats a link to a cd for booting flash drives if you can't set the priority
[02:26] <usser> tazwhite95, sudo mount /dev/dvd /mnt
[02:26] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: Or even what the package is called!!!!!
[02:26] <SxNDave> benjamin_ or if you don't know the computer you're going to be using its handy to have with you.
[02:26] <tuxedocurly> ryanprior: does places->network have anything to do with it?
[02:27] <benjamin_> SxNDave: thanks. but can't find the link
[02:27] <dkulchenko> i have this dillema. i have this usb microphone, which works very well, but there is one problem. if i keep the capture sound level low, the sound is too quiet, but if i turn it up, the microphone becomes too sensitive. what balance should i use to keep my voice loud, and other noise low? i can hear even the slight tapping on the table, but my voice is not loud enough.
[02:27] <SxNDave> http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-boot-cd-for-ubuntu-810/
[02:27] <cast|lir> Sylphid: paravirtualization and running on baremetal isn't mutually exclusive is it? anyway, xen will do full virtualization of non-modified OSes ifyour cpu haas virtualization extensions, which is most recent chips. i knwo my AMD X2 does
[02:27] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: That's where you go to view other networked devices.
[02:27] <Louis> hello!  I'm having a bit of an issue with a samba share.  I want my music shares to allow all users on the network to read/write and create directories.  However, all clients are unable to move files, create directories, or write to the share.  Any ideas?   Pastebin:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/114316/
[02:27] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: There's a separate application which lets you specify folders to be shared via Samba and/or NFS.
[02:27] <tuxedocurly> ryanprior: hm... alright
[02:28] <jove> Folks, after running nvidia-xconfig, how to start x server ?
[02:28] <russia213> redvamp128: any help?
[02:28] <tuxedocurly> its not in /etc/samba/?
[02:28] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: It's very easy to use, and I distinctly remember it being easy to find, and I've helped people to use it before.
[02:28] <kitche> jove: startx
[02:28] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: That's where the samba configuration files are, if you want to edit them by hand.
[02:28] <n8tuser> cast|lir -> how did that worked for you? xen using baremetal?
[02:28] <cast|lir> jove: /etc/init/d/gdm start will startup your login manager
[02:28] <tazwhite95>  thanks but will not mount grrr
[02:29] <Sylphid> cast|lir, do you know of any docs or howto's for that
[02:29] <tritium> ryanprior: nvidia-xconfig is usually not used.  To reconfigure your X server, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:29] <Tekno> Hi
[02:29] <tritium> ryanprior: sorry, wrong nick
[02:29] <redvamp128> russia213:  That was my only thought about it since it is -- a usb device
[02:29] <Tekno> How can I update Feisty (7.04) to next version ?
[02:29] <tritium> jove: nvidia-xconfig is usually not used.  To reconfigure your X server, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:30] <cast|lir> n8tuser: id like to use it as a desktop, last time i looked accelerated graphics were still in progress though. my server runs in  xen vm :)
[02:30] <tuxedocurly> ryanprior: i see... so samba SHOULD have some sort of folder that makes it easy to drag/drop share?
[02:30] <n8tuser> cast|lir -> that much power for a desktop? :P
[02:30] <usser> Louis, try this http://paste.ubuntu.com/114326/
[02:31] <cast|lir> n8tuser: the non-accelerated graphics pissed me off pretty fast
[02:31] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: I figured something out, at least.
[02:31] <usser> tazwhite95, what does it say?
[02:31] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: It's not the same thing I remember, but try right-clicking the folder you want to share, and then click "Sharing Options"
[02:31] <Louis> usser:  thanks a bunch. let me check that out
[02:31] <cast|lir> n8tuser: its useful from a secuirty perspective to compartmentise a machine :)
[02:32] <Sylphid> cast|lir, im basically looking for a FOSS comparable to vmware ESXi
[02:32] <dkulchenko> hi Tekno
[02:32] <n8tuser> cast|lir -> oh okay, yeah for compartamentalization!...
[02:32] <Tekno> hi
[02:32] <benjamin_> SxNDave: I have a silly question.  Could I potential connect my external harddrive to my laptop with ubuntu 8.10 on it and use 'create usb startup disk' to install ubuntu server 8.10 on it.  Then connect it to my pc run, vmware, and have a server running while windows runs?
[02:32] <asus> anyone here know about OSSEC ?
[02:32] <tuxedocurly> ryanprior: alright
[02:32] <markus_> I installed system with root partition only. Are swap and other partitions a must? When yes, can I now make other partitions with livecd only or could I do it in system too (I had no luck with gparted)?
[02:32] <usser> Louis, also make sure you chown/chmod the directory you're sharing to something like chown mythtv:mythtv
[02:32] <usser> Louis, and chmod it to 770
[02:32] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: That dialog doesn't let you specify advanced options or use NFS, but if you don't want those things, it'll work.
[02:32] <cast|lir> Sylphid: google! i foudn it pretty trivial on debian, install a linux kernel patched for xen, install the supervisor, reboot
[02:33] <ryanprior> tuxedocurly: However, I'm going to hunt down that proper application eventually and file a bug that it's not easier to find.
[02:33] <cast|lir> on my desktop ive just ended up using KVM, which works well :)
[02:33] <redvamp128> russia213:  I know -- but what I was thinking was that if the boot device was getting confused somehow--
[02:33] <Louis> usser:  you're saying that user and group "mythtv" has to own the directory right?  And the force group and force user parameter means that any subdirectories created through the share will be owned by mythtv, right?
[02:33] <n8tuser> markus_ -> a new install? you may as well re-install and have /, /home and /swap partitions
[02:33] <redvamp128> russia213:  all solutions I have googled and read -- have said reinstall grub
[02:33] <usser> Louis, yes that is correct
[02:34] <SxNDave> benjamin_: ias far as I know theres no reason why not, I used to run linux happily as a secondary OS in vmware to decide if i wanted to move over.
[02:34] <redvamp128> russia213:  though let me find it -- you could possibly try super grub disk
[02:34] <fluitfries> how many workspaces do you all use?
[02:34] <_VIM_> 1
[02:34] <Louis> usser:  aaah i think i know what the problem is... i created the directories in the share via ssh with another user... duh =)
[02:34] <WebcamWonder> fluitfries: 1
[02:35] <redvamp128> russia213:  it has better tools to help configure grub and fix common boot errors. Super Grub Disk Webpage <http://www.supergrubdisk.org/>
[02:35] <usser> Louis, also if i were you i'd set a sticky bit on the directory too, since you might be putting files there from the mythbox as well as uploading them. sticky bit will force all local files to be owned by the mythtv group
[02:35] <SxNDave> benjamin_ I think you need to do the install through vmware though
[02:35] <tuxedocurly> ryanprior: alright, thanks mate! (sorry it takes me so long to reply, im using a SLOW Pentium 4 processor)
 thanks man!
[02:35]  * fluitfries uses 4.
[02:35] <Louis> usser:  what's the sticky bit?
[02:35] <benjamin_> SxNDave: Alright. Ill try that now
[02:36] <russia213> redvamp128: I'll see what I can do
[02:36] <Imaginativeone> how do I get all the updates via terminal?
[02:36] <redvamp128> russia213:  did you get that last one about the super grub disk (it has tools to help fix grub errors)
[02:36] <WebcamWonder> Imaginativeone: sudo aptitude full-upgrade
[02:36] <usser> Louis, it basically changes the ownerships of files that are created/copied/moved to the directory to a certain group, mythtv in this case, samba's force group, only locally
[02:36] <fluitfries> i keep one workspace dedicated to my XP VM, one for gimp, one for browsing and the other for terminal stuff
[02:36] <russia213> redvamp128: yes
[02:36] <WebcamWonder> fluitfries: offtopic please :)
[02:36] <fluitfries> sry
[02:36] <risefromashes> hi, I am wondering what is going on with the Azureus client, the 2.5* version. is it still being updated or has it been stalgating since Vuze 3* version?
[02:37] <Louis> usser:  aah okay. how do I do that?
[02:37] <usser> Louis, chmod -R g+s /directory
[02:37] <ubuntuBG> Is Canon lbp2900 work with Ubuntu 8.10
[02:37] <Louis> usser:  and -R makes it recursive, correct?
[02:37] <maheshkumar1986> Have u nice day for all and my problem is I am using Ubuntu 8.04 since 1 month form 3 days it become slow to open package managing
[02:38] <usser> Louis, yes
[02:38] <maheshkumar1986> synaptic
[02:38] <WebcamWonder> maheshkumar1986: Why are you opening synaptic everyday?
[02:38] <maheshkumar1986> and browser also slows down
[02:38] <maheshkumar1986> and some applications allso
[02:38] <Imaginativeone> is this significant?
[02:39] <Imaginativeone> could not resolve security.ubuntu.com
[02:39] <Louis> usser:  im getting this error:   louis@server:~$ sudo chmod -r g+s /var/lib/mythtv
[02:39] <Louis> chmod: cannot access `g+s': No such file or directory
[02:39] <_VIM_> maheshkumar1986: what kinds of things have you installed recently?
[02:39] <usser> Louis, -R
[02:39] <Louis> usser:  oh. duh. man i fail today
[02:39] <cambazz> hello  I got >> dev/null 2>&1 at the end of each cron line, yet i still get a mail about the cronjob
[02:39] <markus_> but just one more question: I had xp on my first partition and the second raw partition was of course empty, but in install step: partitions or sth  I could have chosen between two options: guided installation or sth (use entire HD!) or manual. Why entire disk if I have two partitions?
[02:40] <Louis> usser:  i still don't have the permissions
[02:40] <usser> Louis, with samba
[02:40] <usser> Louis, ?
[02:40] <Louis> usser:  yes
[02:40] <risefromashes> markus: because it will change your partitions to a monolith partition for ubuntu
[02:40] <usser> Louis, did u restart it after modifying the smb.conf?
[02:40] <maheshkumar1986> I am a webdveloper iam unable to take related packages for ubuntu cd soi am open synaptic some times
[02:40] <n8tuser> markus_ -> to be safe use manually partition
[02:40] <Louis> usser:  yeah i did that
[02:41] <onexused> X? is suddenly broken for me.  Last time I booted the computer and logged in, I found that maximized windows would not cover a good-sized strip at the bottom of the screen.  To try to remedy this, I changed the screen resolution using gnome-display-properties.  Now the screen scrolls horizontally, fairly quickly.  Moving the mouse changes the speed it scrolls, and how much of the screen is used by the display.  Changing the resolution or refresh r
[02:41] <usser> Louis, hm try to chmod the directory to 777 just to test it
[02:41] <cast|lir> cambazz: >> /dev/null might as well be > /dev/null FWIW
[02:41] <usser> Louis, recursively
[02:41] <onexused> This is the third or fourth time I've installed 8.10, with problems each time, though this time there were no immediate ones.  The CD checks out when booted from.
[02:42] <Louis> usser:  will do.   "chmod -R 777 /path/todirectory"
[02:42] <usser> Louis, yes
[02:42] <Louis> usser:  that fixed it
[02:43] <benjamin_> SxNDave: I want to download VMware for linux or Windows?
 yeah but I do not know how many and what partitions should I make, I'm not advanced user :(
[02:43] <benjamin_> SXNDave: Nevermind
[02:43] <SxNDave> ok
[02:43] <usser> Louis, cool, that makes it world writable, no authentication no passwords anybody can write to it
[02:43] <n8tuser> markl_ -> then perhaps guided would be the next choice
[02:43] <Louis> usser:  i guess that's fine. it's on a home network, so it's no biggie
[02:44] <risefromashes> hi, I am wondering what is going on with the Azureus client, the 2.5* version. is it still being updated or has it been abandoned since Vuze 3* version?
[02:44] <Louis> usser:  if it ain't broke, don't fix it right? =)
[02:44] <_VIM_> !latest | risefromashes
[02:44] <usser> Louis, well it is kinda broke :)
[02:44] <Louis> usser:  shhhhh!  hush!
[02:44] <usser> hehe
[02:44] <Louis> my mythbox is perfect
[02:45] <markus_> and when I'm finished with root partition I didnt notice that I could make it smaller or make other partitions out of root one
[02:45] <usser> Louis, im not sure if chmod 777 cleared the sticky bit so just to be safe chmod -R g+s /path
[02:45] <maheshkumar1986> Louis if ur new to the Linux just try http://www.linuxcommand.org/; http://tldp.org/ for more tutorial and has a downloadable version of tutorials
[02:45] <Louis> usser:  will do. thanks for all the help
[02:45] <usser> Louis, no problem
[02:46] <Louis> makeshkumar1986 ... thanks...
[02:46] <thedailylunatic> help
[02:46] <risefromashes> ubottu: i noticed the difference in versions, but azureus's new verions are now non gpl licence, instead proprietary. i just wondering if i should continue using the 2.5* version or use something like deluge or Ktorrent since it is still being worked on with new releases coming out
[02:46] <thedailylunatic> lol, sorry, brand new to irc. was trying to hit faq with that "help"
[02:46] <deever> is there a way to use wpa with a pure /etc/network/interfaces solution? i mean, without having to call wpa_supplicant explicitely...
[02:47] <_VIM_> risefromashes: deluge-torrent is very nice
[02:47] <Mike_92> Can someone link me to a tutorial that will let me set up user accounts over a network so I can access the same user accounts from different computers around my house?
[02:47] <risefromashes> _VIM_: ionno it kinda lacks features compared to azureus
[02:47] <_VIM_> well i think it's pretty feature rich compared to transmission
[02:48] <thedailylunatic> Could someone help me out with a graphics driver issue? I've been stuck at the command line ever since I restarted after installing xorg
[02:48] <risefromashes> _VIM_: is there a way to get custom tabs, like in azureus "assign category"?
[02:48] <cast|lir> Mike_92: hmmm, could export their home dirs via NFS
[02:48] <risefromashes> thedailylunatic: what vid card do you have?
[02:48] <_VIM_> risefromashes: Not sure, i'd have to look myself :)
[02:49] <thedailylunatic> ati radeon x1800 crossfire (2 of them)
[02:49] <Mike_92> cast|lir: Do you know of a tutorial that will tell me how to do that?
[02:49] <onexused> Guess I'll go post on the forums.  I shouldn't expect people on IRC to read such long things.
[02:49] <maheshkumar1986> i am using the Ubuntu 8.04 Linux for 2 month and it is become slowdown on their performence like slow opening of the application like Firefox, Synaptic package manager mostly this two are opening slowly
[02:49] <n8tuser> deever ->   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=318539
[02:50] <risefromashes> thedailylunatic: i'm not sure if linux drivers support crossfire. i know you can use package called "Envy" to auto install and configure xorg for ATI cards that's what i use
[02:50] <_VIM_> maheshkumar1986: are you running low on HDD space?
[02:51] <cast|lir> Mike_92: not a specific one. google will answer such things. ;). just just remote login to boxes as well, in a server-thinclient like setup, thats probably easiest than exporting home dirs and possiby setting up centralized authentication
[02:51] <maheshkumar1986> no i have a 13GB of free space 2GB of RAM, 2GB span
[02:51] <risefromashes> thedailylunatic:  "  1. Boot into recovery mode.

Some days ago I remove one item from the Kmenu (KDE4.2) (right click > edit menu > remove item > save) and since then when I install/remove an app the Kmenu doesnt get updated, and I have to update it with kbuildsycocoa4. Any ideas how could I fix this? Its not really a big thing, but its anoying...
[02:53] <_VIM_> al3x-admin: ask that in #kubuntu

[03:02] <Gumby> melwtech35, now what on earth would you use that for?
[03:02] <nunka> how do i check to see if i have all my drivers for my ati graphics card
[03:03] <mustangg> hey. Any ideas why "genisoimage" could fail due to "Permission denied: unable to open disk image" (run with sudo).
[03:03] <Gumby> nunka, I think if "glxinfo |grep -i render" returns ati information you are good.  otherwise you are using the stock driver
[03:03] <eatThisAndDie> Quicken2k: u could also `sudo su -` which will give you the root terminal. Then you can change the root password to what you want.
[03:04] <Gumby> nunka, but its been quite a long time since I've used an ati card in linux
[03:04] <x_> where would my wireless driver be located?
[03:04] <deever> n8tuser: yesss...works! thank you! :)
[03:05] <melwtech35> Gumby, for monitoring servers and sending alerts there is currently a whatsupgold database on our server
[03:05] <nunka> grumpy ok thank ya :)
[03:05] <seacnboy> hello, who knows what's wrong with"make[1]: *** [pcrecpp.lo] 错误 1
[03:05] <seacnboy> ", install pcre just happend
[03:05] <Gumby> melwtech35, you need packet injection for that?
[03:07] <risefromashe1> _VIM_: so should i use clients that are being updated fairly frequently if i want to have encryption for stream/full stream?
[03:07] <nunka> what is the channel # for wine help?
[03:07] <x_> where would my wireless driver be located?
[03:07] <melwtech35> Gumby, waa? whatsupgold is network managment software..
[03:07] <Quicken2k> ok here's another question why don't my headphone and mic jacks work in ubuntu?
[03:07] <kattollikisd> Help... Im trying to boot the 8.10 Cd Live of Ubuntu.. but after the usplash, the computer get frizzed
[03:07] <webbhawk_h4x0r55> is kubuntu maintained by the same people as "ubuntu"
[03:07] <thedailylunatic> Dammit
[03:07] <Quicken2k> kattollikisd try graphics in safe mode
[03:07] <thedailylunatic> envy didn't work
[03:08] <_VIM_> risefromashe1: no clue about that,, have you tried google?
[03:08] <eatThisAndDie> webbhawk_h4x0r55: yes. but from your name i woulda thought you woulda figured that all by yourself ;)
[03:08] <R0D0LF0> Hello everyone! I'm trying to install Ubuntu. I've been trying 8.04 and 8.10 (32 and 64). Under Live CD and installing I'm always getting the same message: "aperture beyond 4 Gb. Ignoring", and stays like that even after 30 minuts  and nothing else hapens. Any ideas. Thanks
[03:08] <kattollikisd> Quicken2k, how? :S
[03:08] <webbhawk_h4x0r55> this name is randomly generated :) sorry about that
[03:08] <nunka> #wine
[03:08] <webbhawk_h4x0r55> eatThisAndDie: thanks for your help
[03:08] <Quicken2k> When you get to the menu that says install ubuntu hit F4
[03:09] <eatThisAndDie> webbhawk_h4x0r55: No Prob!
[03:09] <nunka> how do i get to the wine help channel ^^?
[03:09] <eatThisAndDie> webbhawk_h4x0r55: Kde4 looks way cool btw
[03:09] <Gumby> melwtech35, lol,  oops.  i was reading one line and responding to another.  hehe.  my bad
[03:09] <bnagy> hi, subversion installs but can't find a lib
[03:09] <bnagy> svn: error while loading shared libraries: libsvn_client-1.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[03:09] <Gumby> melwtech35, I was responding to the packet injection question by x_
[03:09] <Gumby> hehe
[03:10] <anima_> OK, I have 4 workspaces - do I have to have the same wallpaper on all of them?  I'd like to be able to tell instantly which one I was on, if possible.  I have the graphic, of course, but.
[03:10] <kattollikisd> Quicken2k, how can I try in graphics in safe mode? Im a novice
[03:10] <bnagy> I tried purge and autoremove, but how do I force it to comepletely reget and reinstall all libs?
[03:11] <fserve> date
[03:11] <eatThisAndDie> bnagy: do you know what libs you're missing?
[03:11] <anima_> fserve:  nah, don't date, thanks.
[03:11] <bnagy> libsvn_client-1.so.1, apparently
[03:11] <Quicken2k> (kattollikisd): is ubuntu installed?
[03:11] <Gumby> x_, I've tried patching that driver before and it never worked properly.  Best bet is to go buy a card that is better supported.  Also, asking about packet injection isn't going to get you very far in a public channel given its usual useage of hacking wifi networks
[03:12] <bdelin88> hey can any1 help, i have a freakin broken package that wont delete or anything and so I can't use "apt-get" anymore, output is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/114350/
[03:12] <bdelin88> please help! :) ^
[03:13] <eatThisAndDie> bnagy: try this : ls -alh /usr/lib/libsvn_client-1*
[03:13] <_VIM_> !fixapt
[03:13] <kattollikisd> Quicken2k, the 8.04, yes. it was hard to put it in the PC.. but I did it. I want to installl the 8.10 but it do not boot well... so im afraid to do the upgrade
[03:13] <eatThisAndDie> bnagy: in my case, /usr/lib/libsvn_client-1.so.1 is a softlink to  libsvn_client-1.so.1.0.0
[03:13] <mortici> Anyone have any good suggestions for a solid dvd making software, that will create auto chapters and the like whilst converting the video?
[03:13] <anima_> OK, I have 4 workspaces - do I have to have the same wallpaper on all of them?  I'd like to be able to tell instantly which one I was on, if possible.  I have the graphic, of course, but.
[03:14] <bnagy> eatThisAndDie: nothin'
[03:14] <melwtech35> Gumby, NP ;)
[03:14] <melwtech35> I found OpenNMS anyway
[03:14] <_VIM_> anima_: from what Ive heard, that is not possible yet...
[03:14] <bdelin88> _VIM_: it just says"pening does not take any non-option arguments
[03:14] <mustangg> mortici- DeVeDe works for me, does most if not all that.
[03:14] <bdelin88> pending* sry
[03:14] <ryanprior> My screen keeps going blank when I'm not using mouse+keyboard but I'm watching a movie, or spectating in a fullscreen game, or something. How do I stop that?
[03:14] <bdelin88> hey can any1 help, i have a freakin broken package that wont delete or anything and so I can't use "apt-get" anymore, output is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/114350/
[03:14] <anima_> OK, thank you.  Just thought it might be since ubuntu is so entirely slick so far.
[03:15] <tthurman> My sound has recently started only working if I run mplayer or mpg123-alsa or whatever as root, which I'm reluctant to do.  If I run it as myself, mpg123-alsa crashes with "Error in writing audio (Socket operation on non-socket?)!"
[03:16]  * tthurman wonders if there's some permissions thing I'm not getting here
[03:16] <bdelin88> hey can any1 help, i have a freakin broken package that wont delete or anything and so I can't use "apt-get" anymore, output is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/114350/
[03:16] <bdelin88> anyone at all?
[03:17] <asus> bdelin88 did you try sudo apt-get autoremove    ?
[03:18] <bdelin88> asus: yea  i think i tried that already it's the "bandwidthd" packet
[03:18] <bdelin88> asus: i'll try again real quick
[03:18] <bdelin88> asus: it just displays the same errors
[03:19] <bdelin88> asus: did you see that output, it's saying it's in a very bad inconsistent state
[03:19] <asus> ok what does  sudo apt-get install -f
[03:19] <bdelin88> asus: same output
[03:19] <asus> ok try sudo dpkg --configure -a
[03:20] <Davedan> did anyone notice that flash 10 doesn't allow to access camera on ubuntu 8.10 ?
[03:20] <Gumby> sudo apt-get remove bandwidthd
[03:20] <mustangg> davedan - and that's a bad thing?
[03:20] <bdelin88> asus: new output says: http://paste.ubuntu.com/114354/
[03:20] <erpo> Davedan: I didn't know that feature was ever supported on Linux.
[03:20] <Davedan> mustangg: yes because you can't use video chat
[03:20] <asus> you did a apt-get update after ?
[03:21] <Davedan> I guess it's an adobe bug
[03:21] <bnagy> .. also, on my eee 1000h I sometimes get repeated characters while I'm typing, and it's not me, is there some OS setting I might be able to tweak or it is probably hardware?
[03:21] <mustangg> ah, interesting.
[03:21] <bdelin88> asus: doing apt-get update now
[03:21] <asus> then apt-get upgrade
[03:21] <bdelin88> asus: yep doin that too
[03:22] <kattollikisd> Quicken2k, the 8.04, yes. it was hard to put it in the PC.. but I did it. I want to installl the 8.10 but it do not boot well... so im afraid to do the upgrade
[03:22] <bdelin88> asus: the bandwidthd package is messed up from the start, it's ridiculous
[03:22] <asus> and you tried to remove it ?
[03:22] <bdelin88> it just said that from the start
[03:22] <bdelin88> here's the new output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/114356/
[03:23] <asus> are you running 8.10 ?
[03:23] <bdelin88> asus: yes
[03:24] <[R]> i just helped a friend install ubuntu and now he is getting this error message: http://dpaste.com/117278/
[03:24] <asus> did you do all your updates first thing ?
[03:24] <bdelin88> asus: yes
[03:24] <ryanprior> My screen keeps going blank when I'm not using mouse+keyboard but I'm watching a movie, or spectating in a fullscreen game, or something. How do I stop that?
[03:24] <mortici> [R]: type: dpkg --configure -a
[03:25] <bdelin88> asus: can't i just tell it to let go of this thing i mean crap
[03:25] <mortici> like it says to fix the problem :)
[03:25] <[R]> mortici: we did... hence 'and the result of running the dpkg command specifed'...
[03:25] <mortici> [R]: oh wait
[03:25] <mortici> do
[03:25] <asus> what is the full package name ?
[03:25] <mortici> [R]: sudo apt-get install libc6
[03:26] <bdelin88> asus: bandwidthd_2.0.1+cvs20071208-3_i386.deb
[03:26] <mortici> [R]: weird that it did that usually it would install the dependencies first....
[03:26] <bdelin88> asus: it keeps saying it fails becase of init.d stuff
[03:26] <[R]> mortici: shouldn't libc6 be installed?
[03:26] <asus> can you find the package under synaptic package manager
[03:26] <bdelin88> asus: sry, it says it fails cuz of update-rc.d
[03:26] <c0d1g0> hello :)
[03:27] <bdelin88> asus: this is the server, i assume u mean just checking the apt folder?
[03:27] <mortici> [R]: try to install it, if it is it will tellyou
[03:27] <nickrud> bdelin88, look at line 19 in /etc/init.d/bandwithd , there appears to be a syntax error there.
[03:27] <mortici> [R]: but according to that error, it states its not installed
[03:27] <SxNDave> ryanprior: Try going to "System > Preferences > Screensaver" and increasing the idle time.
[03:27] <firehazard17> when using ssh and irssi how do you keep from it disconnecting when you close the terminal on the client?
[03:27] <asus> ok try sudo apt-get remove -purge [package name]
[03:28] <asus> that should remove everything
[03:28] <bdelin88> nickrud: yea i don't care anymore i just want to kill this thing
[03:28] <ryanprior> SxNDave: My screensaver is disabled. This is a monitor power-off, not "black screen" with power.
[03:28] <firehazard17> ctrl + z?
[03:28] <bdelin88> asus: yea i see it in apt archives, i am gonna purge it
[03:28] <nickrud> asus, that will fail as well. bdelin88 put a copy of /var/lib/dpkg/info/bandwidthd.prerm on http://paste.ubuntu.com
[03:28] <jrib> !screen | firehazard17
[03:28] <risefromashes> is there a way to put a password on the ktorrent application when it is in tray mode?
[03:28] <[R]> mortici: http://dpaste.com/117281/
[03:29] <KDE4000> lol its [R] again
[03:29] <bdelin88> nickrud: k, doing that
[03:29]  * KDE4000 has seen [R] everywhere
[03:29] <firehazard17> jrib: is there a screen package in FreeBSD?
[03:29] <fluitfries> can i get "Screen Zoom" for xubuntu the same way it's provided in Mac OS X?
[03:29] <SxNDave> ryanprior: in the same menu goto Power Management and extend the display sleep time.
[03:29] <firehazard17> i could not find it so easily
[03:29] <jrib> firehazard17: probably.  Ask the freebsd channel?
[03:29] <mortici> [R]: try: sudo apt-get -f install
[03:30] <jrib> !away > JamesMowery
[03:30] <ryanprior> SxNDave: It's already set to 11 minutes, but I'm definitely not waiting 11 minutes before it goes blank. More like 1 minute.
[03:30] <mortici> [R]: if that doesn't work try: sudo apt-get -f install libc6
[03:30] <bdelin88> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu.com/114361/
[03:31] <Meshezabeel> Found out the problem...it is pictures that crash firefox, for example: http://nikamo.org/crash_bandacoot  (don't go there if you don't want your browser to close).
[03:31] <mortici> [R]: the beauty of most errors, they tell you exactly what it the problem is and most of the time how to fix it :)
[03:31] <SxNDave> ryanprior: Sorry outside of that I don't know where else it might be caused.
[03:31] <Meshezabeel> Found out the problem...it is pictures that crash firefox, for example: http://nikamo.org/crash_bandacoot.jpg  (don't go there if you don't want your browser to close).
[03:31] <nickrud> bdelin88, gksu gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/bandwidthd.prerm , put    exit 0   on line 4, then run the apt-get remove again
[03:31] <Meshezabeel> sorry, wrong link first time
[03:32] <mustangg> Could anyone tell me what circumstances could cause genisoimage to  generate an error "permission denied"
[03:32] <nickrud> bdelin88, run apt-get purge , actually
[03:32] <ryanprior> SxNDave: I can't figure anything out today. Here's another problem: I can't figure out where the GUI is to share folder using Samba and NFS. Also, I can't find the GUI to tell the keyboard which keys should be "compose" keys. I know both those exist, but I've checked every menu and I can't find them.
[03:33] <mortici> mustangg: might not be int he proper group to use said app, since it might use other apps that can only be accessed by root, or a certain group
[03:33] <mobodo> what do you guys use for remote monitoring?  I'm probably looking for an apache module to get network/cpu/ram/user usage info from outside.
[03:33] <SxNDave> ryanprior: definately way outta my league there...
[03:33] <bdelin88> nickrud: ...genious man
[03:33] <bdelin88> nickrud: absolute genious!
[03:33] <cast|lir> mobodo: ssh host top, and users complaining
[03:33] <bdelin88> nickrud: genius*
[03:34] <nickrud> bdelin88, not really ;)
[03:34] <eatThisAndDie> mobodo: tried nagios?
[03:34] <eatThisAndDie> or is that overkill..?
[03:34] <bdelin88> nickrud: hey i have1 probably easy question as well, u have another sec?
[03:34] <nickrud> bdelin88, if I know the answer. My knowledge is narrow but shallow ;)
[03:35] <mobodo> eatThisAndDie: it it's free, it's not overkill
[03:35] <bdelin88> nickrud: haha ok, do u have any experience with apache2 or at least with chmod stuff?
[03:35] <nickrud> bdelin88, some
[03:35] <eatThisAndDie> mobodo: Yeah.... then get nagios
[03:36] <bdelin88> nickrud: well... i have set up virtual hosting, and then i added [user] to the group "www-data" and i want him to have 775 permissions
[03:36] <bdelin88> nickrud: well everything seems to work, but when i use filezilla ftp client....
[03:37] <bdelin88> nickrud: i can create and delete directories just fine, but if i drag stuff (i.e. new directories into existing directories) then it says it does not have permission to create those new directories
[03:37] <bdelin88> however, it works just fine when i drag things into my user's home folder
[03:37] <bdelin88> nickrud: it's really frustrating
[03:37] <[R]> mortici: ok, thanks... looks like its all good now
[03:37] <mortici> [R]: great to hear, good luck and have fun :)
[03:38] <orudie> can someone recommend a webmail  ?

[03:39] <keith_> it feels like all sound is coming out of the bass speaker
[03:39] <nickrud> bdelin88, no, I'm not sure what's going on there. I have ssh access to all the servers I use, so I don't use those gui file transfer programs
[03:39] <keith_> i can not mute or control the volume
[03:39] <orudie> SxNDave, i am looking for a webmail to install on ubuntu server
[03:39] <tritium> orudie: squirrelmail

[03:41] <bdelin88> nickrud: can you recommend a good program to sync files between client and server?
[03:42] <bdelin88> nickrud: i would like to maintain a small directory of notes...nightly if possible and without having to do it myself
[03:42] <On0bi> when does the new version release?
[03:42] <nickrud> bdelin88, I haven't had a use for that, but I understand rsync is popular
[03:43] <bdelin88> nickrud: i did "sudo chown -R [user] /var/www/ THEN sudo chmod -R 775 /var/www
[03:43] <tritium> On0bi: April (hence the "4" in .04)
[03:43] <On0bi> oic
[03:43] <bdelin88> nickrud: and now it works, and i'll check into rsync, thanks :)
