[04:33] <gaelfx> magpiie: nah, that one can be a little tricky for anyone
[04:33] <coz_> gaelfx,  yes I realized that after typing :)
[04:33] <crlcan81> I have been using ubuntu since 8.04
[04:33] <coz_> crlcan81,  cool
[04:33] <sxndave> magpiie: you will need to add the applets back how you want them if you do that, thisnks like the window list etc
[04:33] <articulas> Been so ling since I used irc. Using Unbuntu is like skinny dipping.
[04:34] <crlcan81> I just SOMETIMES get the tutorials for 8.04 9.04 and whatnot because I just search 'blahblah ubuntu' not 'blah blah ubuntu 10.10'
[04:34] <coz_> articulas,  cool ,, refreshing  and sometimes a bit of shrinkage :)
[04:34] <crlcan81> I forget
[04:34] <gaelfx> crlcan81: keep it
[04:34] <crlcan81> that's what I was wondering, since it's.. not actually doing anything
[04:34] <crlcan81> it changes nothing
[04:34] <magpiie> thanks, i managed to figure that bit out, not before panicing that it wasnt showing this window that i minimized to the new dock lol
[04:34] <crlcan81> my splash 'login' doesn't change either.
[04:35] <Braber01> I can't seem to be able to install gcc or g++ on a dumb termnial any idea why?
[04:35] <coz_> Braber01,  the current for your version of ubuntu should already be installed
[04:35] <coz_> Braber01,    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:35] <sxndave> magpiie: you can reset completely back to default if you like but you will loose andy bits you've added to the top panel too. thats the way I usually do it since I don't keep much up there.
[04:35] <hypatia> alisalaah: sorry to disappear - to answer your question, you'd need to add a user as well
[04:35] <hypatia> alisalaah: and maybe reinstall some packages, depending on the system
[04:35] <Braber01> coz_ thank you
[04:36] <ITGeekwhisperer> Kernel panic - not syncing VFS unable to mount root fs on unknown block 0,0 thats the error not how bout one of you young folks that kickass in ubuntu help me out?
[04:36] <dustin_> HOW DO YOU UPDATE ADOBE FLASH  THROUGH COMMAND LINE
[04:36] <magpiie> thanks, i sorted it out now, no need to reset cheers
[04:36] <coz_> dustin_,  if you installed via apt it should update automatically
[04:37] <coz_> dustin_,  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:38] <Braber01> I keep trying which gcc and which g++ and I get no result.
[04:38] <Braber01> and what was that second command sudo apt-get dist-upgrade?
[04:38] <magpiie> ok now back to my original problem, whenever i plug the earphones in, i get sound from both speakers and earphones, even after installing the alsamixer, any ideas?
[04:38] <coz_> Braber01,  yes   in terminal also   gcc --version
[04:39] <articulas> do I need to run virus ware with unbuntu?
[04:39] <Braber01> coz_: I've tried the command to find out if it was installed, i.e "which" and it didn't return any locations.
[04:39] <coz_> articulas,  most likely no
[04:39] <cybonix> Dustin did you try sudo apt-get upgrade flash?
[04:39] <coz_> Braber01,  and did  gcc --version have a readout?
[04:40] <Braber01> /bin/sh: gcc: not found
[04:40] <coz_> Braber01,  ooooo
[04:41] <coz_> Braber01,  open synaptic package manager   ,,, hit the Search button type in gcc
[04:41] <Braber01> coz_ I can't I'm on a dumb terminal.
[04:41] <coz_> Braber01,  oo  you are not in GUI  desktop ?
[04:41] <Braber01> coz_: that's correct
[04:42] <coz_> Braber01,  can you get into DE
[04:42] <ozzloy> when i hit suspend on my lenovo x200, the screen blanks, sleep light blinks, but the machine immediately wakes up again. how do i trouble shoot this? so far my google-fu has failed me
[04:42] <coz_> Braber01,    sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:42] <coz_> Braber01,   un comment and line starting with   deb
[04:43] <Gitt> I've been out of the loop for some time, does anyone know if ubuntu can be installed on an intel mac ( 2010 ) model, without using bootcamp, or having to do some crazy patching process for grub?
[04:43] <rockman125> Hi, i don't have access to server physically , how do i run rescue there?
[04:43] <sxndave> magpiie: it can usually be done manually from the sound preferences dialog. if you go to the soundpreferences item in the sound menu of the top panel and head to the 'output' tab you can select which ouput to use in the 'connector' dropdown menu
[04:43] <coz_> Braber01,   save it  ctrl+x   then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:43] <cyberjunk502> how to schedule broadband connection to connect at specific time
[04:43] <dustin_> coz_, still doin it
[04:43] <coz_> mm
[04:44] <coz_> dustin_,  what ecactly is going on with flash on that system?
[04:44] <cyberjunk502> how to schedule broadband connection to connect at specific time
[04:44] <cyberjunk502> using pppoe
[04:45] <magpiie> i have done that, but for some reason, i either get no sound at all, or still sound out of both headphones and speakers, Its annoying becuase i bet it is something really simple too. I have even tried muting the speakers on output but all that does is mute both
[04:45] <sxndave> do they appear as seperate devices in the hardware tab?
[04:46] <magpiie> i have analogue output and anologue headphones as the two options
[04:47] <magpiie> when i plug earphones in, it automatically mutes the speakers, when i choose headphones output, i cant hear anything until i unmute speakers, then i get sound from both earphone and speakers
[04:49] <alisalaah> Is there two versions of "Alt+Tab"? I just installed Ubuntu on wife's macbook and it looks different then on my Asus but I've never customized that?
[04:49] <antonius_> hi, i'm using 10.10, remote desktop WILL NOT WORK for my account.  Works for all other users, except my acc't.  They are desktop users, while I am admin..any ideas?

[04:50] <alisalaah> dandaman1, im using touchpad atm so cant tell you
[04:50] <kevin_> sudo apt-get install gcc?
[04:51] <kevin_> oops

[04:51] <crlcan81> I love my mointor
[04:51] <arand> alisalaah: Also metacity/compiz has different appearance (compiz is used if accelerated graphics drivers are available)
[04:51] <dr_Willis> !be
[04:51] <sxndave> magpiie: sorry, not sure where to go from there. I had a similar problem back in an older version but i have no idea how i fixed it.
[04:52] <magpiie> a 10 second shot of nerd rage sometimes does the trick, its just really really annoying the hell out of me, i am in the library studying and i cant listen to my music AHHHH
[04:53] <magpiie> ironicly, i am studying conflict resolution rofl

[04:54] <rakesh> hey
[04:54] <antares_> alguien que hable español?
[04:54] <sxndave> magpiie: nice. tbh it would drive me around the bend too
[04:54] <antares_> ¿Este es el IRC en español?

[04:54] <Starminn> !es | antares
[04:55] <rakesh> can someone help me i have some trouble with executing a c program
[04:55] <Starminn> rakesh: Tried in #C?
[04:56] <rakesh> o is that a channel
[04:56] <rakesh> thanks
[04:56] <rakesh> because this seems to be a compiler issue?
[04:56] <magpiie> oh well, i will have to leave it for another week, my mate is a linux programmer but he isnt in town till after the weekend, i was trying to get this system sorted before he arrived, he has been banging on at me for the past 8 years about sacking microsoft and jioning the linux community, at least its only the sound i am ahving trouble with. pretty much got my head around everything else so far
[04:58] <Starminn> magpile: Are you grateful for your friend's persistence?
[04:58] <Starminn> Just curious. Despite the issues, thus far how has it been?
[04:59] <rockman125> Hi, i don't have access to server physically , how do i run rescue there?
[04:59] <sxndave> magpiie: glad to hear it. when I first moved over I had a lot of little niggly things like that. It was a real drag as it was easy to end up ina mess after reading countless forum posts and endless commands into the terminal.
[05:00] <Kaleidomorph> So far I'm enjoying my switch to Linux.
[05:00] <thrillERboy> I accidentally uninstalled few packages by sudo apt-get remove evolution*, now whenever I start ubuntu, theres an error GNOME_FastUserSwitchApplet error while loading. How to fix this?
[05:01] <magpiie> aye, I had a few small issues like the sound one, basically i was trying to set the 3d desktop to spere and it wouldnt have any of it, 8 hours and 3 you tube videos later, bobs ya uncle, awesome 3d desktop, first thing i always do when installing an operating systme, pimp it up
[05:01] <ben__> What up?
[05:01] <magpiie> sky?
[05:01] <ben__> funny magpiie
[05:01] <ben__> my mate always says sky lol
[05:02] <wrongturn> t
[05:02] <magpiie> My uncle always used to get me with it, guess it rubbed off onto me lol
[05:02] <ben__> lol :P
[05:02] <kevin_> thrillERboy: install evolution lol
[05:03] <ben__> im sync my keys how long does it take usually?
[05:03] <thrillERboy> I'm sure its not the evolution package ;) there are many other evolution packages, I don't know which one is it :/
[05:03] <thrillERboy> coz, I have already removed evolution without any problems
[05:03] <kevin_> try synaptics... install all the dependencies

[05:04] <satya> error in creating home directories for the ldap users. could not chdir to /etc/username
[05:05] <Senjai> Hey guys, does anyone know how to mount a remote filesystem?
[05:05] <Senjai> e.g. is there a way to mount my uni's filesystem onto a folder locally.
[05:06] <DouglasK> Question, how do you find which package contains a specific file?
[05:07] <sxndave> Senjai: In nautilus, select 'File > conect to server...'. There are several options of how to do it. You will either need to have ssh access to the remote machine and use that account of ftp access to it.
[05:07] <maco> DouglasK: whats the file?
[05:07] <DouglasK> libflashplayergc.so ..... the flash plugin that comes with Google Chrome.
[05:07] <satya> error in creating home directories for the ldap users. could not chdir to /etc/username
[05:07] <maco> DouglasK: oh if it came with chrome, then it was in the chrome package
[05:07] <satya> error in creating home directories for the ldap users. could not chdir to /home/username
[05:08] <DouglasK> maco: so I would have thought.  I purged Chrome, reinstalled it, and the file is nowhere on my box.
[05:08] <maco> !find libflashplayergc.so
[05:08] <Senjai> sxndave, i have ssh access, is there a command line varient to do it though? I'm aware of the GUI version (perhaps I should have stated so)
[05:08] <maco> DouglasK: ^ its not from an ubuntu package
[05:09] <Senjai> sxndave, and I believe that the GUI version uses sftp, which my uni allows.
[05:09] <DouglasK> maco: K.  I'll dig into the .deb from Google and see what's up.
[05:09] <maco> DouglasK: dpkg --contents foo.deb
[05:09] <maco> DouglasK: to get a list of files in the deb
[05:09] <DouglasK> maco: thanks!
[05:10] <navin> any idea about cross compilation?
[05:10] <sxndave> Senjai: I guess there is but I dont't know it unfortunately, and yeh it can use sftp or ftp in the nautilus method
[05:10] <Senjai> sxndave, yea... neither do I
[05:10] <sxndave> Senjai: Im interested to know myself how to do it from the command line. It would be nice to be able to put a bash script together to mount my remote systems at startup
[05:11] <Senjai> sxndave, sftp uses ssh protocol, ftp uses.. ftp protocol.
[05:11] <Senjai> sxndave, that's what I'm trying to do
[05:12] <sxndave> Senjai: yes and you can choose to use either when connecting via nautilus. I would use sftp from the cli though in order to be able to authenticate using keys instead of putting the password in the script
[05:12] <JeffCBR|away> How do I access my CDROM drive?
[05:13] <Senjai> sxndave, I'd either prompt for a password on startup, or make it so the script cant be read by anyone except me
[05:13] <Senjai> JeffCBR|away, using the mount command
[05:13] <svetlio> Hi all
[05:13] <motion> hi
[05:13] <miketomdool> it might automatically mount it as /media/cdrom
[05:14] <Senjai> JeffCBR, check the /media/cdrom if its there, if its not, type mount /dev/cdrom
[05:14] <motion> I would like some help recovering my dual-boot ability with grub2 -- it seems to have not been installed after i installed maverick 10.10
[05:14] <ITGeekwhisperer> can anyone help with a dual boot issue? just dl'd and installed ubuntu 10.10 (used the "install along side" method) .. when I restart and try the ubuntu it says.. Kernel panic -- not syncing VFS unable ti mount root fs on unknown block 0,0      could really use the help and some sleep
[05:14] <jose-neto> hello
[05:14] <jose-neto> i need help
[05:15] <Logan_WP> !ask | jose-neto
[05:15] <Senjai> !ask jose-neto
[05:15] <Senjai> Logan_WP perhaps you would know how to answer my previous question?
[05:15] <jose-neto> ubottu,i nstalled ubuntu 11.0 but the bars and window borders are not showing
[05:15] <Senjai> Logan_WP, you just joined so I'll repeate it
[05:16] <jose-neto> ubottu  i nstalled ubuntu 11.0 but the bars and window borders are not showing
[05:16] <IdleOne> !11.04 | jose-neto
[05:16] <miketomdool> jose-neto: ubottu cant respond to you
[05:16] <motion> what I have done this time, which is a bit different then most times when I've installed ubuntu is I've used one hard disk - 500mb, windows has half and linux has half, 250 - so linux being linux I've given it a 20gb SWAP and a 210gb EXT4 -- after installing ubuntu using the manual-partitioner via ubuntu installer it fails to boot through GRUB giving me no selection of OS, just booting into ubuntu
[05:17] <Senjai> Logan_WP, do you know how to mount a remote filesystem locally? (The GUI does this via Places -> Connect To Server) I'm looking for the command line equivalent in order to set up a bash script
[05:17] <jose-neto> ubotto  do you have any idea how can i downgrade it
[05:17] <ITGeekwhisperer> can anyone help with a dual boot issue? just dl'd and installed ubuntu 10.10 (used the "install along side" method) .. when I restart and try the ubuntu it says..

[05:18] <miketomdool> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub
[05:20] <sxndave> Senjai: check out the package 'sshfs'
[05:20] <jose-neto> ubottu no one responds my message in #ubuntu+1
[05:20] <Senjai> sxndave, it wants its own usergroup, It doesn't have to be done that way
[05:20] <motion> if I am running GRUB2, will the "grub-install -v" return this :grub-install (GRUB) 1.98+20100804-5ubuntu3 ?
[05:20] <kevin_> ubottu hello
[05:20] <Senjai> sxndave, if Ubuntu can already do it via the GUI, there has to be a way to do it via the command line
[05:20] <g_0_0> motion, in terminal -> sudo update-grub   -- should do the trick
[05:21] <Senjai> sxndave, and I have no intention of creating a user in which the application has full rights to
[05:21] <miketomdool> is there a command line program to watch videos?
[05:21] <xangua> miketomdool: mplayer
[05:21] <miketomdool> oh wow cool
[05:21] <bowentwo> 1 TB HD Windows 7 2 TB Ubuntu installation was a breeze but when i rebooted i went straight to windows can anyone help me fix it? i'm in live cd now not sure what to do next... thank you in advance for the help.
[05:22] <miketomdool> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub
[05:22] <sxndave> Senjai: I wouldnt either, but im inclined to think that that functionality is either part of nautilus or gnome as I could not do it in xubuntu without installing nautilus and fudging it to be the default file manager with a link
[05:22] <BHXSpecter> is there a way to restore gdm to the ubuntu installation from the live cd without reinstalling everything ?
[05:22] <motion> g_0_0, ...update-grub generated a grub.cfg but, all I see is that it has found only "linux img: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic", "initrd img: /boot/initrd.img-2.6.35-22-generic", and lastly memtest86+ img
[05:22] <sxndave> BHXSpecter: just teh panels?
[05:23] <Senjai> sxndave, I can map network filesystems, but I cant mount remote filesystems that require authentication.
[05:23] <motion> g_0_0,  shouldnt there be a "/windows"  or something present?
[05:24] <jose-neto> senjai
[05:24] <jose-neto> Senjai i need heelp
[05:24] <BHXSpecter> sxndave: well I was following a tutorial to install gnome-shell so I could get a tron legacy theme working and I rebooted when it told me to but suddenly  I got blank screen with errors about losing graphics/monitor/etc settings and sent to the console login so I booted up live cd hoping to fix without a full reinstall
[05:24] <g_0_0> motion, can you check in system->administration-> startup manager and see what options are listed under default operation system
[05:24] <jose-neto> Senjai Ubottu could not help me
[05:24] <intok> yay / nay? http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Desktop-Environment/Icons/Tux-n-Tosh-Icons-Reloaded-52313.shtml
[05:25] <jose-neto> help

[05:27] <Senjai> jose-neto, then wait, and ask again later, or ask on the ubuntu forum
[05:27] <BHXSpecter> guess Ill have to tackle my issue tomorrow morning then cause the silence tells me it is harder than I had hoped lol
[05:27] <sxndave> BHXSpecter: beyond my expertise I feel
[05:28] <jose-neto> Senjai the problem is that i need to navigate on this computer to back up my data
[05:28] <sxndave> BHXSpecter: was just checking out some threads i had bookmarked
[05:28] <Senjai> BHXSpecter, that seem like a complicated problem, for the super complex problems try the forums, and post logs.
[05:28] <BHXSpecter> *shrugs* may just do reinstall, make a day of re installing updates and apps again
[05:28] <jose-neto> if i could back up my data would be better
[05:28] <Senjai> jose-neto, have you tried booting into single user mode?
[05:28] <ruffdog> mickster04, wanted to let you know I downloaded Ubuntu 10.10 desktop again.  Checked the hash, it was good.  Installed perfectly.  Tks for you help on that.

[05:29] <jose-neto> Senjai how do i do that

[05:29] <motion> ubottu, pastebin\
[05:29] <BHXSpecter> Im heading off to bed, tired of fighting this tonight

[05:32] <GKA> Hi everyone. Here's my issue: Visual Effects reset on restart. I have tried many attempts to correct this. My alternative is to reconfigure my settings to equal to that of when I start Ubuntu from a live CD. I'm using 10.04. Any helpers?
[05:32] <jose-neto> Senjai , give me a minute
[05:33] <RPG-Master_> crlcan81: RPGs WOOT
[05:33] <Starminn> soreau: For what it's worth, I got the same output as Senjai gave you
[05:33] <motion> g_0_0, ive run into a problem like this before which took forever to solve and i dont remember the steps, so to avoid this i had formatted completely after using ubuntu10 as standalone, but now due to compatibility issues I would like to dual-boot windows/linux and the grub doesnt seem to have co-operated with me
[05:33] <Senjai> Hi Starminn :)
[05:33] <Starminn> Hi.
[05:33] <Starminn> Going to bed. See ya. :)
[05:34] <Senjai> olimones_ do you know the folder?
[05:34] <kevin_> GKA: driver issue?
[05:35] <DandyKoffin> hey guys. no one in #winehq will help me with this. I can't use hotkeys for spells in diablo II. Anyone know how to fix it?
[05:35] <Senjai> !ot | Dand
[05:35] <g_0_0> motion, do you have a raid?
[05:35] <jose-neto> Senjai ,and what else
[05:35] <DandyKoffin> #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:35] <Senjai> jose-neto, sorry I have to go, once your in recovery mode, you can copy all your files over to a seperate disk (I think thats what you wanted)
[05:36] <jose-neto> yep
[05:36] <jose-neto> but how
[05:37] <GKA> kevin_: could be. I never used the proprietary driver when I installed 10.04 for the first time. I tried the fglrx fix, compiz, save settings, etc. Now I want to know what drivers are installed from the Live CD. Is there any way to get a list?
[05:37] <Senjai> jose-neto, have you logged into recovery mode
[05:38] <motion> g_0_0, no im not using raid... and you know what -- ive just been thinking, i think i may have installed ubuntu incorrectly -- ext4 is mounted at / and thats the only mount point along side 'swap' ....i just realised before formatting i had /, /home, /boot -- i beleive
[05:39] <crlcan81> How would I go about changing the login screen? what program would do the actual background and icon?
[05:40] <soreau> Senjai: Thanks, dvd playback works again now :)
[05:40] <motion> !pastebin
[05:40] <Senjai> soreau, good to hear :) anytime
[05:41] <sxndave> crlcan81: you can change the icon set by editing the theme in 'system > preferences > appearence'
[05:41] <motion> g_0_0, http://paste.ubuntu.com/570941/
[05:41] <Senjai> crlcan81, Im not exactly sure, but I think its a gnome thing. Look there first?
[05:41] <Senjai> !gnome, crlcan81
[05:41] <Senjai> !gnome | crlcan81
[05:41] <Senjai> !desktop > Senjai
[05:41] <crlcan81> I'm already in gnome silly :P
[05:42] <Senjai> wow, ubottu sucks
[05:42] <crlcan81> ouch
[05:42] <Senjai> crlcan81, what I wanted ubottu to do is point you to a GNOME configuration site
[05:42] <bazhang> !themes > crlcan81
[05:43] <Senjai> Thank you bazhang :)
[05:46] <g_0_0> motion, sorry I'm on the phone perhaps somebody else could help you with your boot problem
[05:47] <crlcan81> I found part of the problem.
[05:47] <motion> g_0_0,  no problems, thanks anyhow.
[05:47] <crlcan81> For some reason administration has login screen, but not login window. screen lets me select users and whatnot, but not install themes. There's no theming access in it.
[05:48] <bazhang> crlcan81, gdm2 is not terribly configurable
[05:48] <crlcan81> So basically the eyecandy help associated with GDM is out of date.
[05:50] <log_15> hi
[05:50] <log_15> can you help me
[05:50] <crlcan81> only 'configuration' available I've found is if you do synaptic and search gdm theme, but that also pulls up splash and mouse during GDM.
[05:50] <bazhang> log_15, ask a question

[06:06] <PokeTehPenguin> Hi everyone, I seem to have a problem with Ubuntu 10.10 and my laptop wireless card not being compatible with it... In using WUBI to dual boot Ubuntu and windows 7, I am using a Dell Inspiron 14R(N4010) and I got it to connect to wifi, but will not load pages, so I am going to do yet another fresh install and need some help to get my wireless working.

[06:35] <gaelfx> [biabia]: did you check for a PPA?
[06:35] <[biabia]> gaelfx: no, not sure how/what you mean
[06:36] <gaelfx> [biabia]: actually, I'm pretty sure there is no reader x for linux yet
[06:36] <[biabia]> ok
[06:36] <dravekx> so, can you put a group inside a group?
[06:36] <gaelfx> [biabia]: if it's not on adobe's website, then I can't imagine that it actually exists

[06:38] <dpierce> dhanesh: fsck
[06:38] <gaelfx> dhanesh: you can use Disk Utility
[06:38] <CodeYeti> Should I put the java JDK in /usr/local/bin or /usr/local/lib or what?
[06:38] <pikini> PokeTehPenguin, can you give me the log
[06:39] <alisalaah> Is there any way to make the Ubuntu splash come up as soon as computer is powered on or wakes from suspend without any of the text displaying? (this will prevent family nagging me that they think something is broken possibly)

[06:41] <pikini> PokeTehPenguin, got it
[06:41] <PokeTehPenguin2> Alright
[06:41] <alisalaah> CodeYeti, i thought it was /usr/lib/jvm
[06:41] <PokeTehPenguin2> Sorry, using iPod and laptop at the same time
[06:42] <gaelfx> dhanesh: open Disk Utility, select the drive
[06:42] <gaelfx> dhanesh: if your drive has S.M.A.R.T. it should tell you right away if there are bad sectors or not
[06:42] <CodeYeti> alisalaah, Is there some linux for idiots tutorial out there that would explain to me the meaning of this directory structure?
[06:43] <gaelfx> CodeYeti: everything starts at '/', you're on your own from there ;)
[06:43] <alisalaah> CodeYeti, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMagazine/HowTo/DirectoryStructure
[06:43] <darkthawt> haha
[06:44] <[biabia]> everything starts with an e
[06:44] <alisalaah> CodeYeti, "/usr/lib for libraries which cannot be directly run but are essential for running other programs. Your package manager takes care of the things in /usr for you."
[06:44] <ilea> hi all
[06:45] <gaelfx> howdy
[06:45] <gaelfx> dhanesh: did you figure it out?
[06:45] <CodeYeti> alisalaah, Except for apparently installing the JDK
[06:45] <ruffdog> PokeTehPenguin, I realize pikini is helping you, but did you check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported to see if your card was supported?
[06:46] <ilea> can anyone tell me a good CAD program for drawing plans and for drawing the plan of a building and other things. I need for a profesor?
[06:46] <alisalaah> CodeYeti, try "apt-get install sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-jre"
[06:46] <gaelfx> CodeYeti: are you installing from the package manager or did you download it and are trying to do it yourself?
[06:46] <PokeTehPenguin> ruffdog: Let me see...
yes but i want to scan the disc like norton disk checkup?
[06:47] <alisalaah> CodeYeti, you may need to add "sudo"
[06:47] <darkthawt> If I backup my /opt/ directory, does that mean I don't have to reinstall applications that exist in it?

[06:47] <exitdescription> hi ? is there a doc out there for ubuntu upgrades from jaunty to lucid without a graphical manager?

[06:48] <gaelfx> darkthawt: why would you have to reinstall those applications?
 please wait
[06:48] <ruffdog> exitdescription, you want to update through terminal?
[06:48] <thauriswulfa> ilea:freecad
[06:48] <exitdescription> yeah ruffdog
[06:48] <CodeYeti> gaelfx, I was trying to do it myself. Does the package manager version contain the lastest version immediately?
[06:48] <alisalaah> CodeYeti, many packages you can use "-current"
[06:48] <gaelfx> CodeYeti: no, it doesn't contain the latest version immediately, but you might be better off looking for a PPA
[06:48] <ruffdog> exitdescription, check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=765360 maybe that helps.
[06:49] <gaelfx> !ppa | CodeYeti
[06:49] <darkthawt> gaelfx: wasn't sure, usually used the package manager do everything for me.
[06:49] <gaelfx> CodeYeti: chances are someone has already done what you want to do and has made it easier for others to do it as well, google for ubuntu jdk ppa
[06:49] <ilea> freecad is not so good i need a complex one to help me draw a full house plan including bath utilitis and other stuff
[06:49] <RollerDK> hi
[06:50] <syrinx> wow its been so long since ive been on irc
[06:50] <gaelfx> darkthawt: why are you worried about the applications in /opt?
[06:50] <exitdescription> thanks!i''ll check it out ruffdog

[06:51] <Blou_Aap> disabled sleep
[06:52] <CodeYeti> alisalaah, Sorry to keep bugging you, but how did you get that package name?
[06:52] <gaelfx> ilea: you could search in Synaptic for CAD and see if anything looks halfway decent, but my inclination is to say that good CAD software is bought with real money
[06:52] <alisalaah> Google
[06:52] <mehdi> is there any program that shows available INTERNET connection with their infos?
[06:52] <KB1JWQ> RollerDK: Ask.
[06:52] <alisalaah> I had to install JDK 3 times in the last week
[06:52] <sdollins> Could someone perhaps tell me what 4 dots rotating between red and white means on the screen after grub?
[06:52] <alisalaah> I am a J2EE dev at work and was moving to Ubuntu on a couple comps
[06:52] <alisalaah> that got me running with jdk 1.6
[06:53] <gaelfx> sdollins: sounds like a bad graphics driver
[06:53] <darkthawt> gaelfx: I've been using Maple that is installed in /opt and hate going through the installation process.
[06:53] <rumpe1> mehdi, "netstat tulpen"
[06:53] <RollerDK> now the challenge question is "please type closeup without the close", any answer? :P
[06:53] <KB1JWQ> up
[06:53] <rystraum> type up
[06:53] <sdollins> gaelfx, it's a server if it matters..
[06:53] <steven__> Hello every one. I'm a newer .
[06:53] <Jeruvy> sdollins: thats the hal/?? stage prior to loading user profiles.
[06:53] <alisalaah> RollerDK, "up"
[06:54] <gaelfx> darkthawt: well, if you really want to keep something safe in case you ever need to reinstall, you should set up '/' and '/home' on separate partitions and install any apps like that into your '/home' directory
[06:54] <thauriswulfa> steven_:hi steven
 how can i check using terminal /
[06:54] <sdollins> Jeruvy, i'm not in the datacenter so i'm not exactly sure what it's doing. he just said it's doing that after grub
[06:54] <gaelfx> sdollins: oof, well, that's certainly not my area of expertise, you might wanna try to find someone with a better idea of what's going on with that
[06:54] <RollerDK> ok, thanks It was literal meaning. I was trying to look up for meaning, thanks gyus :)
[06:55] <sdollins> We just moved drives into a new chassis.
[06:55] <gaelfx> dhanesh: fsck is probably the best
[06:55] <Jeruvy> sdollins: thats normal.
[06:55] <darkthawt> gaelfx: I keep every my documents for /home, a partition that exists in home sounds like a good idea. Thanks for the tip.
 so what i want to do how?
[06:55] <darkthawt> gaelfx: all my documents*
[06:55] <sdollins> Jeruvy, so this is normal? how long should it take?
[06:55] <mehdi> @rumpel is that program belongs to germany?
[06:55] <CodeYeti> alisalaah, the sun-java6-jdk package is unavailable. If it matters, I'm on 10.04 because I wanted to run in virtualbox without issues
[06:56] <gaelfx> darkthawt: yeah, it's something that they really need to make an option on default installs. when you're setting up partitions, it's best to keep some things separate
[06:56] <gaelfx> dhanesh: you should type 'man fsck' and see what it can do
[06:57] <darkthawt> gaelfx: I manually partition my OS installation
 i saw  but i didnt understand
[06:58] <gaelfx> dhanesh: ok, you just want to check your disk for errors?
[06:58] <dpierce> dhanesh: 'sudo fsck --help'
[06:58] <syrinx> anyone  here?
[06:59] <dpierce> alternatively you can fsck.$ . where '$' is the filesystem of the drive
[06:59] <gaelfx> dhanesh: maybe we should start over, why do you want to check your disk for errors?
yes bad sectors
[06:59] <cwheeler> can I install raid 5 using the ubuntu desktop dvd?
[06:59] <dhanesh> in windows it showd that had bad sectors
[07:00] <sdollins> cwheeler, software raid?
[07:00] <ruffdog> asdf
[07:00] <syrinx> jkl;
[07:00] <ruffdog> asdfasdf
[07:00] <Jeruvy> dhanesh: what does SMART tell you?
[07:00] <rumpe1> mehdi, no.. it's a usual cli command
 2 bad sectors
[07:01] <cwheeler> yes software raid
[07:01] <mehdi> @rumpel is that netstat?
[07:01] <Jeruvy> dhanesh: you should fix them, then seek a new drive.
[07:01] <ZummiG777> Question: I have a dual monitor setup.  Is there a way to have individual backgrounds in each monitor?
[07:01] <rumpe1> mehdi, yes
[07:02] <mehdi> @rumpel well tanx and wat exactly Nmap do?
[07:02] <immy> so if i want to copy the encrypted data with dd i need to use low level /dev/sdx which has no directory structure - in other words all i can do is a low level copy
[07:02] <gaelfx> Jeruvy: 2 bad sectors isn't really a big deal, nothing to buy a new drive over anyhow
[07:02] <rumpe1> mehdi, port scanning e.g.
[07:03] <ruffdog> ZummiG777, check out http://crimm.me/2009/04/multiple-monitors-multiple-wallpapers-ubuntu-9-04.html  See if that helps
[07:03] <mehdi> ok
[07:03] <peakone> 这个IRC怎么用？
[07:03] <ZummiG777> Thanks ruffdog!
[07:03] <cwheeler> sdollins: I want to install software raid 5 on my desktop system, I've used it before
[07:03] <Jeruvy> gaelfx: Better to have a spare ready, than to find yourself without if the drive decides to go south quickly.
[07:04] <sdollins> I think you'll need the text installer and you need a raid1 /boot partition

[07:06] <gaelfx> Jeruvy: I've got 11 bad sectors, been that way for months
[07:07] <Jeruvy> gaelfx: sorry whats the question?
[07:09] <cwheeler> thanks sdollins, I know about the /boot partition
[07:09] <cwheeler> I'm testing ram now
[07:11] <gaelfx> Jeruvy: no question
[07:12] <ruffdog> ZummiG777, also check out http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ubuntu-linux/170531-difficulty-getting-separate-backgrounds-dual-monitors.html
[07:12] <Jeruvy> gaelfx: ah, well the drive could last for minutes or years.  Given the cost of drives I'd dump it.
[07:13] <dravekx> ok, who asked me about the group inside group thing?
[07:13] <dravekx> internet went down...
[07:14] <gaelfx> dravekx: it was kinda rhetorical, I was wondering why you would need that, why you wouldn't just make 2 separate groups
[07:15] <wizz> anyone know how to merge "undf"  file in ubuntu?
[07:16] <dravekx> gaelfx, i have 3 uses jailed in their home folders with public_html folders for web pages. I set up a group called www-group, and i set the permissions fo the folders as USER1:www-group. But now, I need to add www-data also because one of them said wordpress will not install correctly.
[07:17] <dravekx> I read somewhere that you shouldnt use www-data on every folder because it's a security risk, or evidently I don't have a clue what I'm doing. lol
[07:17] <dravekx> I made www-group because I need some users to have full access to all home directories.
[07:18] <wizz> anyone know how to merge "undf" file in ubuntu? "undf" is undefined format for media. i used VLC but it won't work.
[07:18] <sdollins> What is the kernel package?
[07:18] <peakone> 这个“进入channel前使用或者加进你的options>perform中”怎么设置？

[07:22] <mehdi> @rump1 is netstat working offline?
[07:27] <wizz> FUCK
[07:27] <gaelfx> so, since we have silence, I'll go for it: anyone know how to deal with choppy vdpau playback in smplayer ?

[07:29] <nraic> My system has started freezing and I'm trying to figure out why. It can work ok for a few hours and then just freezes.
[07:29] <louzer> How do I install https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+package/screem on Ubuntu Maverick using Synaptic? In other words how do I add the repo for the said URL so I get all the dependencies?
[07:29] <gaelfx> apparently I need to get help during daylight hours in the western hemisphere
[07:29] <syrinx> @nraic is it overheating?
[07:30] <nraic> The only thing I have changed is physically moved the machine to a new location and installed a wifi card.
[07:30] <nraic> syrinx, I'm not sure but I don't think so. I have a really good case with great ventaltion.
[07:31] <pw-toxic__> hi
[07:31] <nraic> syrinx, is there a way to check? does ubuntu log any hardware temps?
[07:31] <pw-toxic__> how can i set up my raid to send emails if there are errors or problems?
[07:31] <syrinx> acpi -t

[07:33] <nraic> I enter acpi -t into my terminal
[07:33] <nraic> and
[07:33] <syrinx> it should report something
[07:33] <nraic> it does nothing
[07:33] <syrinx> try

[07:33] <nraic> says that for 0: 1: 2: and 3:
[07:34] <syrinx> they should report something back
[07:34] <syrinx> for example for me, its says

[07:34] <nraic> mmh

[07:43] <slink> hello. i'm running ubuntu lucid (10.04 LTS/server), and after doing an "apt-get upgrade", i get a "permission denied" on /dev/null from non-root users. i've tried adjusting /lib/udev/devices/null permissions to 666, along with /dev/null, but they keep changing back (even if i don't reboot)
[07:43] <gaelfx> louzer: yeah, sorry about that, it was the first thing that came to mind :P
[07:43] <amit> gaelfx: can i use 64bit ubuntu on virtual box?

[07:43] <gaelfx> amit: I don't know, is there a support channel for virtual box you could ask in?
[07:43] <amit> ok thanx
[07:43] <Senjai|AFK> gaelfx, this is a relevant question for this channel, amit, yes you should be able to

[07:51] <gaelfx> I wasn't trying to be snarky or anything, I just honestly didn't know
[07:51] <Senjai|AFK> amit, gaelfx, though gaelfx is correct, if there is a support medium (forums, irc, etc) for your software it would be best to use it
[07:51] <Senjai|AFK> gaelfx, sorry I misinterpreted your statement.

[08:05] <happyaron> If I use vpn to access the internet, will DNS queries also be sent via VPN? (openvpn)
[08:05] <slink> happyaron: that depends
[08:05] <slink> happyaron: if the VPN modifies your resolv.conf file to use a DNS server on the remote network, it will. hwoever, if you are on an internal network (outside the VPN), and DNS queries go to a local server, then they won't
[08:05] <edwardteach> gaelfx,   a cpu should be able to manage any load, and not overheat!
[08:05] <slink> happyaron: hoever, if you are directly on the internet, or using a nameserver directly on the internet, and you setup a VPN, the queries will go over the VPN if your default route is set to the VPN
[08:05] <slink> however*
[08:05] <happyaron> slink: how to determine which way I am using?

[08:33] <syrinx-con> pretty quiet
[08:34] <Kaleidomorph> All the coming and going. I think people are off grabbing something to snack on or drink, or perhaps waiting for the net to settle down.
[08:34] <coz_> Is it possible...some outside chance.. that everyone... new people also,,, have mastered the art of "ubuntu"  ?  :)
[08:34] <mattcen> Hi all. Has anybody found the latest Firefox update for Lucid causes Firefox to consistently start in Offline mode, regardless of the user's profile setting? I have two Lucid systems, one does it, the other doesn't.
[08:34] <syrinx> lol probably
[08:34] <Kaleidomorph> 3 splits already in the last little while.
[08:34] <coz_> Kaleidomorph,  that one I cant help with I am on 11.04
[08:34] <syrinx> ive mastered ubuntu settings
[08:34] <syrinx> i guess
[08:34] <cast> to master ubuntu is to master linux, gnu, and a few other things
[08:34] <syrinx> 11.04 tho?
[08:35] <syrinx> is that even out?
[08:35] <coz_> syrinx,  no it is not
[08:35] <syrinx> didnt think so
[08:35] <syrinx> im on 10.10.04?
[08:35] <coz_> syrinx,  in terminal     lsb_release -a
[08:36] <syrinx> 10.10 mav
[08:36] <syrinx> thought that was the latest
[08:36] <coz_> syrinx,  it is indeed :)
[08:36] <syrinx> unless your an insider?
[08:36] <syrinx> lol
[08:36] <coz_> syrinx, 11.04 is out there for testing
[08:37] <syrinx> nice
[08:37] <syrinx> think you could help me out setting up a server?
[08:37] <coz_> syrinx, if you wish to listen in on some reports  or join in at some point you would have to go to the #ubuntu+1  channel
[08:38] <syrinx> im there
[08:38] <cast> nc -p 80 -l|bash - # bam! shell server, setup
[08:38] <coz_> cool
[08:38] <syrinx> no one there
[08:39] <chaojituzi1_> who
[08:40] <chaojituzi1_> did they have any one here
[08:40] <coz_> syrinx,  what is the issue?
[08:40] <syrinx> well
[08:40] <kiwilatham> I am here.
[08:40] <gmachine_24> a very deep subject
[08:40] <syrinx> i have had ubuntu 10.10 for like 5 months now
[08:40] <coz_> chaojituzi1,  I think there may have been a server down or somethings  a  "net split"
[08:40] <coz_> syrinx,  ok
[08:40] <syrinx> exclusively, no dual book
[08:41] <syrinx> boot*
[08:41] <coz_> ok
[08:41] <kiwilatham> do people still dual boot?
[08:41] <coz_> kiwilatham,  I do always
[08:41] <gmachine_24> kiwilatham, are you from en zed?
[08:41] <syrinx> and i love it, ivea learned alot of commands and inner workings if you will
[08:41] <thauriswulfa1> QUESTION:  i just intalled festival, but there's no link in menu?
[08:41] <coz_> syrinx,  understood
[08:42] <coz_> thauriswulfa1,  I believe festival is terminal accessed  but I would read more about it on the net
[08:42] <syrinx> i have an old machines downstairs that has 300gig of HSS space that I would like to install server on
[08:42] <coz_> syrinx,  sounds like a good plan
[08:42] <coz_> syrinx,  what is the issue?
[08:42] <kiwilatham> hmmm.  I just put my microshaft os on a Virtual Machine.  Virtual Box is pretty good.  Seems I hardly ever fire the thing up these days.  My linux does everything I need.
[08:42] <syrinx> but im having a hard time gettin the network card to work
[08:42] <thauriswulfa1> coz_:there should have some gui?
[08:42] <chaojituzi1> i`m a new man
[08:42] <gmachine_24> wow that was a let down
[08:42] <coz_> syrinx,  ah ok
[08:43] <coz_> thauriswulfa1,   I dont think so but let me check for sure hold on
[08:43] <syrinx> so the install isn't easy
[08:43] <syrinx> because I can't connect
[08:43] <kiwilatham> are you sure the network card is actually working.  Physically I mean?
[08:43] <mattcen> Ah it turns out that on the problematic system I was running (but not using) NetworkManager, which was "helpfully" informing Firefox that my system was "offline'. Disable/stop NetworkManager, and problem goes away. Hooray!
[08:43] <MACscr> grrr, i dont get it, no matter what i select in ubuntu, its using my hdmi for sound output
[08:44] <syrinx> i believe it is...should i go down there and check?
[08:44] <coz_> thauriswulfa1,  festival is "text to speech"   it doesnt have an interface  ,, it will work with any application that needs test to speech...  you could open a terminal and type     man festival
[08:44] <coz_> syrinx,  what is on that system right now in terms of OS
[08:44] <thauriswulfa1> coz_ , thanx for help, i will try it
[08:45] <syrinx> its completely formatted to ext3 i believe
[08:45] <syrinx> nothing installed
[08:45] <gmachine_24> syrinx, nothing?
[08:45] <coz_> syrinx,  oh I see... did you test internet access with the live cd?
[08:45] <syrinx> nothing
[08:45] <syrinx> no i didn't
[08:46] <coz_> syrinx,  that would be the first step
[08:46] <syrinx> let me go try it
[08:46] <gmachine_24> syrinx, I might be vague, but don't you at least need the drivers?
[08:46] <syrinx> exactly
[08:46] <llutz_> syrinx: how do you expect to connect to the "server" if nothing runs on it?
[08:46] <syrinx> my problem is i have no idea how to get the drivers without an internet connection
[08:47] <gmachine_24> ahhh
[08:47] <coz_> syrinx,  test with an ubuntu desktop live cd
[08:47] <gmachine_24> syrinx, from a disc.......... or usb drive
[08:47] <kiwilatham> syrinx: I was hoping we could see if it shows up in your OS at all.  IE: Is it enumerated in dmesg or lspci?  Is it a PCI card?
[08:47] <coz_> syrinx,  if that works you can download the minimal install cd   which is only  megs and at one point it will prompt you to install things including a server
[08:48] <cast> 'a server' for what?
[08:48] <coz_> syrinx,  the minimal install cd is only 12 megs
[08:48] <gmachine_24> it's as good as cake and fewer calories
[08:49] <gmachine_24> so... did everyone see that an Egyptian gentleman named his daughter "Facebook"...? I think this is a hoax
[08:50] <syrinx> sry, hadda move down there to work on this thing
[08:50] <gmachine_24> meanwhile, in tripoli
[08:50] <kiwilatham> ok - see ya.  Srynx: Try lspci and see if you can see details of your PCI network card.  Also try searching through the output of dmesg for details of your card.  If it shows up there then we have a software issue.  These days it's hard to find a nic that is not supported in linux.

[09:05] <Stormx2> MACscr: just run it, then at the prompt type "help"
[09:05] <MACscr> gmachine_24: without an emulator, thats impossible
[09:05] <cast> MACscr: no it's not.

[09:09] <gmachine_24> okie
[09:09] <coz_> gaelfx,   are all codecs installed?  and also try vlc to see if you get the same results
[09:09] <MACscr> gmachine_24: you never said you wanted to install the sdk
[09:10] <gaelfx> coz_: yeah, the codecs are installed, vlc runs it fine, but vlc doesn't use vdpau

[09:11] <joeoshawa> if i double click a second video i just get a black screen
[09:13] <joeoshawa> it just started today
[09:13] <coz_> gaelfx,  apparenlty on this forum there are links to vlc  git  with vdpau patches   http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=53928&start=30
[09:14] <coz_> gaelfx,  also make sure the system is completely updated   sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:14] <p896gbm> hi folks. i have a RAID question. i have an external 1TB usb harddrive which had been flaking out for a few weeks and stopped responding entirely, so i disassembled it and found two regular 512MB drives. i took them out and added them to my computer and both seem to work fine; no smart failures or anything. one of them contains the start of the filesystem; fsck says the filesystem size is twice the drive size. the other has no superblock.
[09:14] <p896gbm> since this appears to be a simple raid array, my question is how do i assemble it so i can rescue the data?
[09:15] <gaelfx> coz_: yes, the system is totally updated, but you don't understand, I didn't have this problem in 10.04 and I really would prefer not to use git just to get vlc working
[09:15] <ikonia> p896gbm: what technology is controlling the raid array
[09:15] <bullgard> [LAN] '~$ arp' shows on computer »T43« "Address=noname", "HWaddress=00:0a:e4:...". But that computer shows '~$ hostname; MD97600'. How to accomplish that on computer »T43« '~$ arp' will show  "Address=MD97600", "HWaddress=00:0a:e4:..."?
[09:16] <ikonia> bullgard: that is a networking question
[09:16] <joeoshawa> strange it stoped doing it
[09:16] <coz_> gaelfx,  mm  then I am not sure where to go from here... hold on let me check one more thing
[09:16] <joeoshawa> thanks anyway
[09:16] <MACscr> anyone know what "sink-inputs" means in pacmd? They mention the term sink many times
[09:16] <joeoshawa> odd i didn't do anything
[09:17] <gaelfx> coz_: thanks again
[09:17] <p896gbm> ikonia: no clue. it's just a very small circuit board that connected both drives. it has two sata ports, two hdd power connectors, a connector for a power adapter and a usb port, that's it
[09:17] <ikonia> p896gbm: is it mdadm based on a hardware raid solution ?
[09:17] <coz_> gaelfx,  no I couldnt find any other channel that could help with t his...although stay here and ask again ... others may have a solution that I do not...also you could ask in ##linux  ,,, its possible someone there may also have a solution
[09:18] <p896gbm> ikonia: i have no clue. i tried assembling it with mdadm but i don't really know what i'm doing. i'm hoping it's just a raid-0 array but i don't know
[09:18] <ikonia> p896gbm: before touching it with mdadm you need to know the technology that the device was put together with
[09:18] <greenIT> hi, does any1 know how to install javaME on ubuntu?
[09:18] <p896gbm> ikonia: i assume the circuit board implemented a hardware raid array; the usb drive showed up as a single partition whenever you plugged it into a computer, no drivers needed
[09:19] <ikonia> p896gbm: if it's hardware array, then you'll need the hardware array to build it
[09:19] <p896gbm> ikonia: ok. is there a way i can find that out? i thought i would first try assembling it as raid-0. it seems the most logical thing the hardware would do
[09:19] <p896gbm> ikonia: why? isn't raid-0 a standard way of assembling drives? i should be able to emulate that with a software like mdadm, no?
[09:19] <ikonia> p896gbm: using mdadm to assemble it if it's a hardware controlled array will help
[09:19] <p896gbm> k
[09:19] <beliveyourdream> is there a software for vector graphics with a command line like autocad ?
[09:19] <ikonia> p896gbm: sorry, typed that terrible
[09:19] <p896gbm> do you know the commands to mdadm to assemble it? they have different uuids
[09:20] <ikonia> p896gbm: assembling a hardware array with mdadm will never happen
[09:20] <p896gbm> ok
[09:20] <p896gbm> why?
[09:20] <greenIT> how can i install javaME on ubuntu?
[09:20] <ikonia> p896gbm: because they are two different technologies that relay on their own software controlled methods that are different
[09:21] <p896gbm> so? there's gotta be a way i can reassemble the filesystem on here. if i can figure out how it's striped, i could in theory create a 1gb file, copy all the chunks in, and then loopmount the file
[09:21] <p896gbm> i mean the data is all there, it's mountable *somehow*
[09:21] <ikonia> p896gbm: why does there have to be a way ?
[09:21] <p896gbm> i'm not sure why i need the hardware. the hardware is dead
[09:21] <p896gbm> ikonia: there has to be a way because the drives are fine, it's the controller that died
[09:21] <ikonia> p896gbm: you need the hardware as it knows and understands (and builds and presents) the finished array
[09:22] <p896gbm> k
[09:22] <ikonia> p896gbm: yes, but the controller is what makes the raid array, if that is dead a different raid technology doesn't understand how it's built
[09:22] <p896gbm> ikonia: yes i know that, that's why i figured i would start by assuming it's raid-0
[09:22] <p896gbm> isn't raid-0 a standard? different controllers would mount it the same way, no?
[09:22] <ikonia> p896gbm: assuming it's raid-0 is pointless if you don't know how it's built
[09:23] <p896gbm> k
[09:23] <ikonia> p896gbm: raid 0 is a "standard" not an implimentation, different methods/controllers build and present it in different ways
[09:23] <p896gbm> k
[09:24] <greenIT> i need javaME on my ubuntu machine... how can i install it?
[09:24] <p896gbm> can't i start by just guessing a few common ways it would assemble it? there's gotta be a few 'most common' ways the data is striped across the drives
[09:24] <ikonia> greenIT: download it from Oracle and install it
[09:24] <p896gbm> if i can force mdadm to mount it with different striping parameters i can test each one to see if it's a valid filesystem
[09:24] <ikonia> p896gbm: no, you're not listening
[09:25] <greenIT> ikonia: isn't there only a version for windows?
[09:25] <ikonia> p896gbm: the raid array is built with a software chip on that hardware controller, other software components don't know how that software works
[09:25] <ikonia> greenIT: contact Oracle and ask for support
[09:25] <greenIT> ikonia: ok, thx
[09:25] <Talicom> greenIT: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=137149
[09:25] <p896gbm> yeah i know ikonia, but i can *guess* how it works
[09:25] <p896gbm> that's what i'm trying to do
[09:25] <ikonia> p896gbm: no "you" can't
[09:25] <ikonia> p896gbm: the software can't
[09:26] <greenIT> yay, thx Talicom :)
[09:26] <p896gbm> i don't want the software to guess, *I* want to guess. i want to tell it different ways to stripe the data and test whether it's a valid filesystem
[09:26] <ikonia> p896gbm: mdadm has no idea how LSI presents array, so asking mdadm to build an LSI controlled array is like asking a someone who doesn't speak English to write shakespear
[09:26] <cast> MACscr: actually, you can
[09:27] <ikonia> p896gbm: it's not telling it how to stripe, guessing it's raid-0 is fine, but the layout of the disks and how it's assembled and intergrity depends on the device that built it
[09:27] <p896gbm> k
[09:27] <ikonia> p896gbm: you need the same tool that built it to re-assemble it
[09:27] <MACscr> cast: prove it? ive never seen such a thing without an emulator or virtualization
[09:27] <MACscr> or a "container"
[09:27] <cast> chroot
[09:28] <MACscr> but that would mean they would have to share the same kernel, correct?
[09:28] <cast> yip, sure
[09:28] <cast> what kernel does android use again?
[09:29] <cast> one wouldn't use chroot, but....i think you're getting my point
[09:29] <p896gbm> ikonia: i'm not convinced of that. i'm sure it's simple, because it looks simple. i can even mount the first drive alone, and see the directory structure. this is a simple ext2 filesystem
[09:29] <cast> for what its worth, linux can run under linux as a process, aka UML
[09:29] <[deXter]> cast: depends on the android version. for instance mine is running <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:29] <p896gbm> ikonia: if i fsck the first drive, it recognizes the ext2 filesystem and can even repair it. it says the filesystem is twice the size of the drive
[09:29] <ikonia> p896gbm: if you can mount the first drive, it probably isn't a raid disk
[09:30] <cast> [deXter]: right, so it uses linux :P
[09:30] <ikonia> p896gbm: if it was a raid device you wouldn't be able to mount the first disk unless it was raid 1 possibly
[09:30] <wonderwal-> hi which kernel does 10.10 server come with?
[09:30] <wonderwal-> !kernels
[09:30] <cast> with linux its pretty trivial to seperate OS instances with the likes of vserver and openvz,
[09:30] <MACscr> cast: yeah, i see your point. Im not a big fan of chroot setups
[09:31] <llutz_> wonderwal-: 2.6.35-22
[09:31] <p896gbm> ikonia: ok. so it's probably not raid then. it's something simpler. do you think the controller just put the two drives back to back? maybe i should just cat the two devices together into a file and try loopmounting it
[09:31] <cast> though...back to the original question, i was more thinking it would be feasible to install android on a piece of similar hardware, such as an ARM laptop
[09:32] <wonderwal-> llutz_: whats the -22 for? theyre on <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:32] <ikonia> p896gbm: no, I don't think the second drive was but back to back as that would be raid 1 and I don't think there is any raid on it
[09:32] <cast> ikonia: that would not be raid 1
[09:32] <p896gbm> ikonia: well raid-1 would replicate the data, no? there's no replication here
[09:32] <ikonia> sorry raid 0
[09:32] <ikonia> typo, had raid 1 on the brain
[09:32] <cast> ikonia: that would not be raid 0, either, unless you set the strip size to the size of the disks
[09:32] <p896gbm> i thought raid-0 striped it for better speed
[09:33] <ikonia> cast: I agree it would not be raid 0, which is what I said
[09:33] <p896gbm> cast: do you know if i can tell mdadm, or some other tool, to mount it as a raid array with the strip size == the size of the disks?
[09:33] <ikonia> p896gbm: yes, but to make two disks presented as one file system would have to be done through some sort of raid or lvm
[09:33] <cast> p896gbm: rather than catting the two devices together you could suggest using a dmsetup to create a virtual device that was the concat of the two drives
[09:33] <MACscr> grrr, this audio thing is driving me crazy. Why the heck is ubuntu not switching my sound output back to the correct device. its showing that it switched, yet all apps still use hdmi
[09:33] <ikonia> p896gbm: 1.) there is no raid used on your disks 2.) you cannot tell mdadm to build arrays out of other raid technology disks/arrays
[09:33] <p896gbm> ikonia: is there a linux tool to do that in software? or should i try telling my motherboard it's a raid array and booting from a livecd?
[09:34] <ikonia> p896gbm: its NOT a raid array
[09:34] <MACscr> here is some of my pacmd output: http://pastebin.com/9pxHujxf. Any help is sincerely appreciated
[09:34] <p896gbm> cast: that would be great. so dmsetup will let me do that?
[09:34] <p896gbm> cast: k i will try that
[09:34] <wonderwal-> what is kernel 2.6.35-22 ?  is that <IP_ADDRESS> with patches or something?
[09:34] <cast> ikonia: actually, you can, mdadm surprising supports non-mdadm native arrays...it won't support all the various HW and fake and soft raid formats, but i believe it supports a few
[09:35] <ikonia> cast: it never works
[09:35] <wonderwal-> :'(
[09:35] <ikonia> cast: the main ones, LSI/3com/HPciss it never works due to the private region data not being accessible
[09:35] <ikonia> or in an understan
[09:35] <ikonia> oops
[09:36] <cast> that private region is enforced by the raid controller :P if you have the raid controller, you'd use that for raid...
[09:36] <ikonia> cast: totally agree
[09:37] <cast> it is annoying how some raid cards don't obviously have a way to just act as a normal sata/sas controller
[09:38] <cast> p896gbm: dmsetup will, using linear mappings. the devicemapper is how cryptsetup/mdadm/lvm implement their functionality
[09:38] <ikonia> p896gbm: why do you think the 2 disks where used together
[09:38] <ikonia> p896gbm: what makes you believe that the 2 disks are somehow linked ?
[09:38] <ali___> hi
[09:38] <cast> p896gbm: actually, the first example in man dmsetup is joining two disks together :D

[09:50] <oopepe> Hi, where is a good place to store my custom iptables script in ubuntu so that it gets loaded on server reboot? Im running ubuntu server 10.04. I dont want to use ufw.
[09:50] <p896gbm> cast: cool. the filesystem size (indicated when i fsck it) seems to imply that the number of sectors used is slightly less than the number on the drive. blockdev gives me 976773105, but if i work out half the filesystem size it's 976768032. i'll try it both ways
[09:50] <MACscr> hmm, could my pulseaudio be failing and alsa is being used instead? Seems none of my pulseaudio options are working
[09:51] <MACscr> i cant even use the master volume controls (aka, they dont apply)
[09:51] <Gnea> oopepe: I just save it somewhere like this:  iptables-save > /etc/network/firewall  then call it at boottime in /etc/network/interfaces like this:  post=up iptables-restore < /etc/network/firewall
[09:51] <Gnea> oopepe: er, post-up
[09:51] <YankDownUnder> oopepe, You can use /etc/rc.local => put the contents of the script there, or call it from that script.
[09:51] <oopepe> Gnea: Ok, thank you
[09:51] <oopepe> Thank you
[09:51] <Gnea> MACscr: the loss of pulseaudio can never be a bad thing
[09:52] <cast> i like the interfaces idea :)
[09:52] <MACscr> Gnea: isnt it what ubuntu uses by default? id prefer to stick with it
[09:52] <iDope> hi guys, I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 and I want to connect to a Wireless network using 802.1X Authentication with WEP (Dynamic WEP). I only see WEP WPA Passhprase WPA2 personal in Wireless Authentication options when I try to set the security parameters in Network Manager. What do I need to install to get the 802.1x auth option available
[09:52] <MACscr> plus i dont like that none of my management software work
[09:52] <MACscr> aka, sound contorls
[09:53] <MACscr> controls
[09:53] <MACscr> how do i know which is being used?
[09:53] <Gnea> MACscr: alsa is the driver that makes the sound hardware work - pulseaudio is nothing more than an application layer that attempts to form a mold around it. alsa has historically been better, is better, and will always be better than using a sound daemon. pulse works good for some hardware situations, though.
[09:54] <Talicom> I am dual booting with windows 7. how would i be able to mount the partition that my windows files are in on startup?
[09:54] <erUSUL> !ntfs | Talicom
[09:54] <Gnea> MACscr: you can easily control alsa (And have more fine-tuned control) by using alsamixer
[09:54] <MACscr> Gnea: everything worked fine until a yesterday when i changed the default output to my hdmi temporarily
[09:54] <Talicom> thanks
[09:54] <llutz_> oopepe: use iptables-save / -restore and place it in /etc/network/if-up.d  if-down.d
[09:54] <MACscr> now i cant change it back
[09:55] <Gnea> MACscr: aaah, so was that just for audio or video and audio or just video?
[09:56] <MACscr> Gnea: well i have changed it back and it shows correctly and when i run tests within the ubuntu sound utility, it works correctly, but even after rebooting, every app uses my hdmi
[09:56] <bullgard> Is there a Ubuntu command to print the known hosts in the LAN?
[09:57] <Gnea> MACscr: if you open the sound preferences, what do you have selected for your output?
[09:57] <llutz_> bullgard: you could use nmap -sP <network>
[09:57] <MACscr> analog stereo (aka, my headset)
[09:57] <Gnea> MACscr: okay, keeping the pref window open, what other sound apps are you trying to use?
[09:58] <yeah> i m on blackscreen
[09:58] <yeah> but it must be ali@ali-netbook but i m on ali@locakhost
[09:58] <yeah> so i cant change anything
[09:58] <MACscr> Gnea: been using totem for testing. But even on boot, the ubuntu startup music is using hdmi
[09:59] <fredrik_> When I log in to my ubuntu there is something wrong with compiz and/or window manager. My awn dock is messed up and windows misses the frame. My solusion is to load "compiz fusion icon" and threw that "reload window manager". How can I resolve this?
[10:00] <Gnea> MACscr: okay, would you please separately pastebin the output of the files contained in /etc/pulse/ ?
[10:00] <YankDownUnder> fredrik_, You can add the "fusion-icon" to your startup programs (SYSTEM => PREFERENCES => START UP APPLICATIONS)
[10:00] <satya> could not create directories for the normal users
[10:00] <satya> after creating the users with useradd
[10:01] <MACscr> Gnea: http://pastebin.com/qh326X4q
[10:02] <satya> could not create directories for the normal users
[10:02] <satya> after creating the users with useradd
[10:03] <Gnea> MACscr: I meant the contents of each file, please
[10:03] <MACscr> Gnea: the files havent changed as you can see since last year. So obviously its not a change within those files
[10:03] <MACscr> that caused the problem
[10:04] <fredrik_> YankDownUnder, Yes, I have done that now. But still. I have to do a reload everytime I start my computor. Why doesn't  compiz load correctly? Or most important. How can I make this happend automaticaly?
[10:04] <Gnea> MACscr: what about in ~/.pulse/ ?
[10:05] <YankDownUnder> fredrik_, Make sure you have the settings correct for "fusion-icon" - as well, you could always use gconf-editor to change the window manager as well.
[10:05] <terrid> hi all
[10:05] <terrid> I'm having a problem trying to install APC on my local machine
[10:05] <Gnea> terrid: what do you mean by 'APC'?
[10:06] <MACscr> Gnea: you need to see the contents of each of those files in .pulse?
[10:06] <MACscr> brb, going to try something
[10:06] <terrid> Gnea: http://php.net/manual/en/book.apc.php
[10:07] <Gnea> MACscr: yes, please. it's easy: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[10:08] <Gnea> terrid: what's the problem?
[10:09] <andreylosev> are the floodbots going through a coup?
[10:09] <YankDownUnder> I think they're fighting.
[10:10] <andreylosev> yeah, and FloodBot2 is the agessor
[10:10] <fredrik_> YankDownUnder, I just checked the "default window manager" with gconf-editor. It is set to "compiz" (exaclty like the attribute "current". Still.. everytime I log in to ubuntu the window manager doesn't load correctly
[10:10] <YankDownUnder> fredrik_, As well, did you setup "fusion-icon" to load in your startup-applications?
[10:11] <fredrik_> nope. Do I have to do that? Thought that this was just a "launchbar" for some compiz-applicaitons
[10:12] <YankDownUnder> fredrik_, Give it a go - and test it - lemme know how it goes mate. (Missus just got home)
[10:12] <fredrik_> ok.. I'll do that!
[10:12] <fredrik_> thanks
[10:14] <SPaz> Hi
[10:16] <MACscr> Gnea: deleting the .pulse audio folder and rebooting resolved the issue. woo hoo =P
[10:16] <heyboy> hi
[10:16] <rockman125> if i want to chroot on my file system i just need to do like this chroot and the folder where my / is mounted?
[10:17] <Israfel-Laptop> UBuntu seems to have the british spell checker enabled by default. How do I fix that?
[10:17] <erUSUL> rockman125: from a livecd? i would bind mount /dev/, /sys/ and /proc/ before chrooting
[10:18] <erUSUL> rockman125: i.e « sudo mount --bind /dev/ /mount/point/dev/ » and the ssame for the other two
[10:18] <rockman125> ah and then chroot?
[10:19] <rockman125> after mounting the other two also what would be the command to chroot
[10:20] <erUSUL> rockman125: the command is « sudo chroot /mount/point/ »
[10:20] <p896gbm> cast: ok, so i figured out how to properly mount this thing. however the second device seems to be reporting its size as 160gb rather than 500gb. turns out maybe this drive is bad after all.
[10:20] <Gnea> MACscr: oh, okay lol
[10:20] <rockman125> good i will do it ty erUSUL
[10:20] <rockman125> what does this error means >> Error unpacking rpm package net-tools-1.60-81.el5.x86_64
[10:20] <rockman125> error: unpacking of archive failed on file /bin/netstat: cpio: rename
[10:20] <MACscr> Gnea: yeah, i gave up as i had been working on the issue for 45 mins and just said screw it, lets try this =P
[10:20] <erUSUL> rockman125: dunno; ubuntu does not use rpm
[10:21] <Israfel-Laptop> Anyone else annoyed that the default spell checker is using the british english spelling?
[10:21] <rockman125> alright ty erUSUL for the commands :)
[10:21] <ylmfos> hi
[10:21] <cast> given the queen is from britain, no
[10:22] <satya> hello
[10:22] <satya> newly created users, having the shell as /bin/sh. why is it happened?
[10:24] <fredrik_> YankDownUnder, Nope. It did not help. Compiz-fusion Icon starts but I still have to right-click on it and choose "reload window manager"
[10:25] <satya> in my /etc/passwd file, users have the shell /bin/sh. i created the users with useradd
[10:25] <ylmfos> what labs dos it need in osd lyrics?
[10:26] <satya> if i su username, pwd= /
[10:26] <ylmfos> i can't run it
[10:27] <Gnea> satya: what's the problem?
[10:28] <erUSUL> satya: check /etc/adduser.conf
[10:28] <bullgard> Is there a Ubuntu command to print the known hosts in the LAN?
[10:29] <Gnea> bullgard: well you could ping the broadcast and then look at the arp table
[10:29] <fredrik_> Anyone that knows how I can fix so I don't have to reload the window manager everytime I log in?
[10:29] <[biabia]> in ubuntu software center i downloaded the gmail app. when i open links in gmail, what program are they running in
[10:30] <llutz_> bullgard: you still could use nmap -sP <network>
[10:30] <blagorod> blagorod/nick
[10:30] <blagorod> username/blagorod
[10:30] <blagorod> hi to all
[10:30] <jd> hi
[10:31] <blagorod> hows you?
[10:31] <TheSarge> how can I change the port the built in RDP server uses?
[10:32] <bullgard> Gnea: What do you mean by "ping the broadcast"?
[10:33] <Gnea> bullgard: get your broadcast address from ifconfig, then: sudo ping -b broadcast-ip
[10:33] <p896gbm> cast: do you know why fdisk might show the wrong size? my bios says the correct size, 500gb, and does not signal any SMART failure. fdisk seems to think it's 160 GB
[10:33] <Gnea> bullgard: then look at the arp table: arp -a
[10:33] <p896gbm> cast: and when i try to mount with dmsetup it says the device is not big enough
[10:33] <cast> p896gbm: what does blockdev think?
[10:34] <Gnea> bullgard: nmap could work too, you might have false positives using both so they are good together
[10:34] <cast> p896gbm: or the line in dmesg for that matter
[10:34] <_Rix> guys i have a question
[10:34] <_Rix> will it blend
[10:35] <Phlosten> _Rix: always
[10:35] <p896gbm> blockdev says<PHONE_NUMBER>96 == 160 gb exactly (not 166, slightly less than a third), and dmesg says the same, 160gb
[10:35] <FrEaKmAn_> hi.. I have windows7 and ubuntu with dual boot.. today I started my PC and grub boot menu wont show up..
[10:35] <p896gbm> very strange
[10:35] <FrEaKmAn_> before that menu there is a new message but I cant read it because it disappers really fast
[10:36] <FrEaKmAn_> any ideas how I could read it
[10:36] <erUSUL> FrEaKmAn_: what is showing up instead?
[10:36] <FrEaKmAn_> erUSUL, nothing...
[10:36] <FrEaKmAn_> just that underscore blinks...
[10:36] <TheSarge> Can anyone tell me how I can change the port the built in RDP server uses please?
[10:36] <erUSUL> FrEaKmAn_: so a black screen? you boot directly into ubuntu? into windows? the machine explodes?
[10:36] <p896gbm> cast: so both blockdev and dmesg say 160gb. what do you think? is the device just busted?
[10:37] <FrEaKmAn_> erUSUL, no. I dont boot into anything.. because grub menu doesnt show up
[10:37] <cast> p896gbm: its an interesting way for a device to break wouldn't you say
[10:37] <erUSUL> FrEaKmAn_: i would boot into a livecd to check that the disk is ok; mount partitions and see if everything is still there and finally reinstall grub
[10:37] <erUSUL> !grub2 | FrEaKmAn_
[10:37] <p896gbm> cast: i agree, heh. i'm installing smartmontools
[10:38] <cast> p896gbm: so whats written on the drives label? :P
[10:38] <blagorod> can somebody tell me how to install 3g modem driver on ubuntu 10.04?  I cannot mount ubuntu partition..hm
[10:43] <theos> erUSUL, thanks :)
[10:43] <b0tz> Hi, I accidently cleared my package cache using ubuntu tweak, I forgot I was supposed to make a APTonCD backup before I did that. when i reload the package cache in aptoncd it doesnt find anything. Can I make a cache again of all apt-installed packages for aptoncd?
[10:43] <TheSarge> Does anyone know the default RDP port in Ubuntus RDP client?
[10:43] <TheSarge> or how to change it?
[10:43] <carrera> hi
[10:43] <erUSUL> FrEaKmAn_: check it with gparted 8 or directly with e2fsck in command line )
[10:44] <cast> b0tz: i don't know what aptoncd is, but unlikely, the debs don't exist on your system now that the cache is cleared
[10:44] <b0tz> anyone have any ideas?
[10:44] <b0tz> Yeah thats what i figured
[10:44] <mah454> who i can send file.gz with mail command ?
[10:44] <b0tz> But I mean theres still installed versions
[10:44] <cast> b0tz: there is no way to work backwards and create them from an installed set of packages
[10:44] <b0tz> so i was hoping i could just remake the cache
[10:44] <b0tz> Grrrr...
[10:44] <TheSarge> wow big help here..
[10:44] <b0tz> AptonCD lets you 'burn' a iso of your currently cached apt installed stuff so you can do an easy restore of them
[10:45] <b0tz> This sucks..
[10:45] <erUSUL> TheSarge: try another rdp client?
[10:45] <erUSUL> !find rdp
[10:45] <wildman> hello. I'm using 10.04 x86 here, and sometimes (cannot tell precisely when, it seems to be random), I get my USB pendrives mounted as read-only. if I disconnect them and reconnect them, they are mounted R/W again. Any ideas?
[10:45] <erUSUL> !info tsclient
[10:45] <cast> b0tz: that seems like a 1 line of sh, kind of program
[10:46] <TheSarge> erUSUL: why? I want to use the built in one, surely there is some config file to change the port?
[10:46] <b0tz> how would I do that
[10:46] <b0tz> aptoncd makes it easy  anyways
[10:46] <b0tz> Im screwed now that I cant remake my cache though. ffs..
[10:47] <cast> you'd just burn /var/cache/apt/archives/ to cd/dvd
[10:47] <erUSUL> TheSarge: maybe it accepts the common address format of  ip.of.machine.here:porthere
[10:47] <b0tz> meh.
[10:47] <wildman> forget it, I got my answer: the FAT FS is damaged :( thanks anyway :)
[10:48] <blagorod> did somebody dance with 3g modem on ubuntu 10?
[10:49] <gryffongrey> yep used sprint 3g modem- pretty straight forward
[10:49] <llutz_> blagorod: works fine here with 10.10, aao 531h and internal Option-3G modem
[10:49] <b0tz> cast what shell command would give you a list of all the currently installed ones then? atleast can have a list of them
[10:49] <TheSarge> erUSUL: Its a server not a client...
[10:49] <cast> dpkg --get-selections
[10:49] <TheSarge> erUSUL: You are not understanding.. I am trying to change the listen port of the server
[10:50] <takuan> damn
[10:50] <takuan> when is this stupid fqdn issue with network-manager going to be resolved
[10:50] <erUSUL> TheSarge: 11:43 < TheSarge> Does anyone know the default RDP port in Ubuntus RDP client? 11:43 < TheSarge> or how to change it?
[10:51] <wildman> bye ppl, have a nice one
[10:51] <blagorod> llutz_: Ive ubuntu 10.04
[10:51] <erUSUL> TheSarge: i should have added emphasys on *client* above
[10:51] <takuan> because of that my /etc/host file is not correct and openoffice.org takes 5 seconds extra to start up...
[10:51] <b0tz> cash: is there a wya to take install out of the whole list without going down each line? im not too good with awk..
[10:51] <b0tz> pretty much format it so its apt-get install :paste: able
[10:52] <blagorod> can I get working 3g modem in ubuntu 10.04?
[10:52] <TheSarge> erUSUL: lol my bad
[10:52] <llutz_> blagorod: usb-device?
[10:52] <TheSarge> SERVER!
[10:52] <TheSarge> 'lol
[10:52] <blagorod> not, its internal\
[10:52] <llutz_> blagorod: mine is internal too, but still usb. use" lsusb "
[10:52] <erUSUL> TheSarge: ubuntu uses vnc not rdp if i recall correctly
[10:53] <llutz_> blagorod: get the vendor/prod-id and do some googling with it
[10:53] <mah454> How i can attach file with mail command ?
[10:53] <TheSarge> erUSUL: Really? Its called remote Desktop...
[10:53] <TheSarge> erUSUL: Its rdp
[10:53] <erUSUL> TheSarge: either way i really dunno if you can chenge the port sorry
[10:54] <TheSarge> erUSUL: Well it not connecting with the default.. you can change it. Just cant remember.

[11:05] <madstein> hey any one using arpon on a wifi network with 3 or more computers in it ?
[11:05] <Gnea> flor: what's a wlan modem?
[11:06] <Gnea> !ask | madstein
[11:06] <madstein> cable modem if u are conected tru a cable WLAN
[11:06] <madstein> ?
[11:06] <madstein> gnea whats the idea?
[11:07] <Gnea> madstein: the idea is, don't ask if anyone has done this or that, just ask your question about the problem you're having and we'll try to help
[11:07] <blagorod> llutz:_ Ive working this
[11:07] <blagorod> llutz_: Ive working this modem when I load from live CD
[11:07] <flor> Gnea, its a wlan device that connects with dsl for internet access. it's got an additional function, printing via wlan: I plug the printer into the wlan-modem. and should be able to print, but i'm Not ;-)
[11:08] <blagorod> llutz_: can I copy that driver to my OS?
[11:08] <Gnea> flor: okay, well just to be clear here, it's just a dsl modem that allows computers to connect wirelessly to it?
[11:09] <flor> Gnea, yep, exactly.
[11:09] <tittn> anybody know good tool to connect to my plesk vpn from ubuntu im having problems setting it up with the tools available in software manager
[11:09] <Gnea> flor: ah okay, so if you plugged the printer in and if it has an IP, you should be able to set it up using the printing configuration tool
[11:09] <Gnea> !printer | flor
[11:09] <alp82> i am searching a good uml editor
[11:10] <Gnea> flor: just make sure you tell it that you're looking for a network printer
[11:10] <alp82> doesnt matter if online or desktop or eclipse/netbeans plugin
[11:10] <alp82> it just has to have a nice user interface
[11:11] <bullgard> llutz_: I have cursorily read 'man nmap'. But I still do not know what to substitute for <network> in my case.
[11:12] <flor> Gnea, trying out something
[11:15] <Back4More420> where would I find the drivers for wireless card in this OS to copy and use with the linux I want to use?
[11:16] <Jonii> Wubi installer left my windows booting thing with this annoying "select if you want to use ubuntu or windows", where ubuntu-choice doesn't work, and windows ubuntu uninstaller doesn't work. How do I destroy that manually?

[11:18] <flor> Gnea, i've done the following: (1) duplicated my existing printer in -> system -> printers. (2) changed settings: device-uri  -> change -> network-printer -> lpd/lpr-host (3) entered as host: socket://<IP-address> (4) sEARCH for printers/printer queues. it didn't work
[11:18] <Gnea> Back4More420: are you just trying to get wireless to work correctly in ubuntu?
[11:18] <Jonii> spidla, ok, how? Also, where did wubi-installer put its stuff?
[11:19] <MegaHerz> Hi all. How to create screencast on Ubuntu? Two apps which I found in Applications and then tried - failed to do anything. One creating gif's which I don't and another (Istanbul) - just hangs
[11:19] <spidla> Jonii, you can use Windows install CD to reach recovery console
[11:19] <shal3r> http://pastebin.com/mWuKXmzx - Any ideas how to fix that?
[11:19] <spidla> Jonii, there is an option to recover MBR
[11:19] <Gnea> flor: I see, what's the make/model of the printer?
[11:19] <Jonii> I don't have Windows install CD
[11:19] <flor> Gnea, it's a kyocera mita 1020 d
[11:19] <Back4More420> no I have it working in this version but want to get it working in the UE 2.8
[11:19] <Jean1> hi, I keep getting 'access denied' if i want to delete something in /var/www, I guess I have to use chown, but with what parameters ? Thanks
[11:20] <Gnea> Back4More420: what's UE?
[11:20] <Jonii> Also, with dual boot ubuntu thing, wouldn't MBR-recovery destroy my ability to boot into Ubuntu?
[11:20] <Back4More420> ultimate eddition 2.8
[11:20] <spidla> Jonii, which version of Windows do you have ?
[11:20] <Jonii> spidla, Vista
[11:21] <penalvch> Jean1: You could also try at the Terminal sudo rm (file)
[11:21] <dr0id> any difference between rm -f -r folder and rm -fr folder ?
[11:21] <Back4More420> if I can get the drivers from this OS I could then put them in the UE
[11:21] <Jean1> penalvch: I don't want to use sudo all the time
[11:22] <spidla> Jonii, I thought that you want to get back to Windows install only . Then the proble is probably in the GRUB loader configuration. Try to boot from Ubuntu live-cd and then you can access your Ubuntu partition and repair GRUB
[11:23] <Jonii> spidla, hmm... GRUB is this Ubuntu-related OS-choice-manager-thing?
[11:23] <Lint> dr0id, not for rm
[11:23] <spidla> Jonii, well I assume you are using GRUB as you boot-loader ... it is a deafult one in Ubuntu
[11:23] <dr0id> Lint: maybe some speed differencee ? :)
[11:23] <p896gbm> hey guys, if i use dmsetup to assemble a drive that has a partition table in it, how do i then mount one of the partitions?
[11:23] <Lint> dr0id, lol no
[11:24] <dr0id> ok
[11:24] <Jonii> If it is, it works just fine. It's just that when I choose to start windows from it, Windows, before launching, asks if I want to launch Windows Vista or Ubuntu(this Wubi-installation of Ubuntu doesn't work)
[11:24] <dr0id> Lint: I thought -fr would be faster than -f -r :)
[11:24] <Jonii> And I want to get rid of this Wubi-installation entirely
[11:25] <Gnea> Back4More420: I think you'll want to ask in #ultimateedition
[11:25] <spidla> Jonii, ouch I understand... this may be the result of chainloading process used while booting Windows from GRUB
[11:25] <Back4More420> Thank You @Gnea
[11:26] <spidla> the second menu is probably installed in windows partition .. not in MBR where the GRIB lives
[11:26] <spidla> *GRUB
[11:26] <Back4More420> this is the OS I want drivers from, where are they stored?
[11:26] <Gnea> flor: can you print if you connect the printer directly?
[11:27] <Gnea> Back4More420: they're not really 'stored' anywhere, it's part of the kernel usually, you'll need to identify your wifi card and which driver it's supposed to use and find a suitable package or driver in UE
[11:28] <takuan> anybody in here knows about fqdn and network-manager?
[11:29] <Back4More420> Gnea, Thanks
[11:29] <tittn> !openvpn
[11:29] <spidla> Jonii, maybe PartitionMagic could help ?
[11:29] <Jean1> hi, I keep getting 'access denied' if i want to delete something in /var/www, I guess I have to use chown, but with what parameters ? I want to be able to delete from a filemanager or even from a samba share. Thanks
[11:30] <MegaHerz> What device should I use in an sound recording application if /dev/dsp doesn't work?
[11:30] <Gnea> Jean1: chown -R user.group dir/  will recursively change it
[11:30] <spidla> Jonii, or there might be some useful settings in your boot.ini in your Windows installation
[11:30] <Jonii> spidla, if you know any keywords I could try googling, it'd help. Like, what's the name of that boot loader that let's me choose between Windows and Wubi.
[11:31] <Gnea> Jonii: wubi just uses NTLDR
[11:31] <Jean1> Gnea: chown -R jean.group /var/ww/* ? and what is 'group' ?
[11:31] <Gnea> !wubi | Jonii
[11:31] <Gnea> Jean1: whatever your group name is set to
[11:31] <cecilio> wenas
[11:32] <cecilio> estas sonia
[11:32] <cecilio> t kero acer el amor ç
[11:32] <Gnea> !es | cecilio
[11:32] <spidla> Jonii, well it seems that Wubi is really updating your boot.ini in Windows ! try to find those lines and edit them
[11:32] <cecilio> sorry
[11:32] <Jean1> Gnea How do I know what my group name is, and will apache/php be able to do their stuff after that?
[11:33] <Jahon> anus
[11:33] <Gnea> Jean1: by using the id command, or just do something like this:  touch ~/test.file && ls -l test.file  to see what gid it uses
[11:33] <Gnea> !language | Jahon
[11:33] <Jean1> Gnea thanks , gonna try

[11:34] <bibic682> hello, anyone please help ....need philips 7130 tv card set up properly....seems like a lotta hoops to jump thru
[11:34] <flor> Gnea, yes, that's working fine, printing directly.
[11:34] <pirx> hi! i have a situation where a software is making a lot of requests to an external API, and i would like to check for how long those sockets are open. it will take some time before i am able to add that to the loggaing of the application. any ideas? (e.g. how to check for how long sockets are open, to some certain IP, during say 1minute)
[11:34] <spidla> Jonii, there should be a list of available operating systems. There you can delete the Wubi lines and you can set your Vista installation as a default operating system. Second boot menu should disappear
[11:34] <Gnea> !tv | bibic682
[11:35] <bibic682> thanks all...will check it out
[11:36] <Gnea> flor: so what's preventing you from adding the new printer instead of copying the currently working printer?
[11:36] <spidla> Jonii, In your boot.init you should see something like this http://pastebin.com/3iFa8QmN
[11:36] <flor> Gnea, got it! i had to type in the ip address only without "socket://" in front of it. yeah!!! thanks for your support!!
[11:36] <Jean1> Gnea it worked, thanks, have a good day :)
[11:36] <Gnea> flor: oh, awesome :)
[11:36] <spidla> Jonii, the last line represents the modification made bu Wubi
[11:36] <Gnea> Jean1: cheers :)
[11:37] <Jonii> spidla, windows Vista doesn't have boot.ini, but yeah, it seems wubiguide has good tutorial to how to remove it
[11:37] <spidla> Jonii, well I am Linux user :-) in Windows XP there was boot.ini
[11:37] <goggle-eyed_bear> do u have windows iso disks?
[11:38] <spidla> Jonii, well good luck
[11:38] <flor> Gnea, have a good day from me too! : ) bye, everybody!
[11:39] <flor> Gnea, ps: you gave me the idea to try a network-printer-conection. for windows, its differently...

[12:29] <helghareeb> Gatekeeper-ZA: can I help you?
[12:30] <BHXSpecter> I have my ubuntu drive separated into /swap, /, and /home somehow GDM got removed.....is there a way to use the live CD to reinstall GDM?

[12:30] <Neosano> halvors, aha, good that you found it
[12:30] <Satauros> first question, to set a time server in Ubuntu (10.04.2 LTS) server, i just have to edit / create the /etc/ntp.conf file, correct?
[12:30] <helghareeb> I used additional drivers, however it keeps crashing
[12:30] <bullgard> Gnea: Thank you for commenting.
[12:30] <helghareeb> I recommend you using 10.10 edition, and don't force ubuntu using external drivers
[12:31] <Gatekeeper-ZA> yeah its an old ati now i know it works in 8.10 but cant seem to get the sources
[12:31] <helghareeb> ubuntu are experiementing 3D drivers in Unity ( 11.04) now. Hopefully it will be available soon
[12:31] <helghareeb> my advice as I told you: stick to the default now, and wait for the new release. Hopefully it will handle the issue
[12:32] <Gatekeeper-ZA> no the issue is i cant recive the sources list so synaptics cant let me add packages ets. it doesnt list
[12:33] <helghareeb> aha, I c
[12:33] <Gatekeeper-ZA> Failed to fetch http://ubuntu.mirror.ac.za/ubuntu-archive/dists/intrepid/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404 Not Found

[12:34] <helghareeb> sounds a good start Gatekeeper
[12:34] <Neosano> Satauros, ahaa

[12:37] <BlankVerse> but after a few minutes , it changes to know
[12:37] <BlankVerse> and my lan port light stops also
[12:37] <BlankVerse> is it a hardware problem?

[12:38] <Satauros> the ubuntu server I mentioned will be running drupal, so the system should be able to send emails using our mail relay servers
[12:38] <bullgard> Gnea: I am struggeling on 2 fronts at the moment. I did not solve yet the question how to determine the known host computers in my LAN.
[12:38] <Satauros> how do i configure this on the server?
[12:38] <Satauros> i already figured out that i'll be needing sendmail :p, but then what?
[12:39] <jrib> Satauros: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/email-services.html
[12:39] <Thalius> Satauros: I had the same problem. Ended up using Exim4.
[12:41] <Satauros> Thalius, and that worked? (i'll be configuring a primary and secondairy mail relay, is this possible?)
[12:42] <Satauros> jrib, the link you gave doesn't mention anything about sendmail, any other suggestions?
[12:42] <Thalius> Satauros: You can try. It can easy be configured using exim-config.
[12:42] <Satauros> without GUI?
[12:43] <jrib> Satauros: you can use postfix or exim.  If you really want to use sendmail, sure use that.  Each of these projects have their own irc channel for configuration questions
[12:43] <Satauros> ok, *searches for the sendmail irc channel :p*
[12:43] <Thalius> Satauros: It has a commandline gui, really easy to config
[12:44] <jrib> Satauros: out of curiousity, why do you want to use sendmail if you don't know how to configure it?
[12:44] <CASSANO> need shell, irssi screen q me
[12:44] <jrib> !ot | CASSANO
[12:44] <CASSANO> bla bla bla
[12:44] <Satauros> due to lack of other options, jrib
[12:44] <jrib> Satauros: but we just gave you two other options
[12:45] <Satauros> my boss told me to set the mail relay on the ubuntu server
[12:45] <Satauros> so first option i noticed, sendmail
[12:45] <jrib> Satauros: I've always used exim, mostly because sendmail is notorious for being difficult to configure :/
[12:45] <Satauros> first come, first serve
[12:45] <bfri> any one help me find where my temp files are when i open a youtube page?
[12:45] <Satauros> ok, exim it is
[12:45] <Satauros> you've convinced me
[12:45] <Satauros> ^^
[12:46] <Satauros> i suppose a simple sudo apt-get install exim will do the trick?
[12:46] <Thalius> Satauros: yes
[12:46] <jrib> Satauros: might be exim4, check the link
[12:46] <Satauros> i'll try right away
[12:47] <Thalius> Satauros: exim4 indeed. After that use sudo exim4-config, youll get this: http://library.linode.com/web-applications/project-management/redmine/images/redmine-debian-5-exim-config-1.png
[12:47] <Satauros> ok installed  - i'm so happy it automatically uninstalled sendmail :D -
[12:48] <bfri> any one help me find where my temp files are when i open a youtube page?
[12:49] <Satauros> don't you mean sudo dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config Thalius?
[12:49] <jrib> bfri: /home/jrib/.mozilla/firefox/p26rxi5a.default/Cache ?
[12:49] <jrib> bfri: or whatever your *.default directory is.
[12:50] <Satauros> so that worked Thalius, now, in order to make this work (using our primary and secondairy mail relay), which option should i choose best?
[12:50] <Satauros> (yes i have entered n00b mode)
[12:51] <Thalius> Satauros: Dont know tbh. Been some while since i configged it, and i only use 1 relay
[12:51] <bfri> jrib: i dont have that location you mentioned and i just up graded to 10.04 and my default directory no longer has them
[12:52] <doodie> how do I join 2 empty partitions using gparted?
[12:52] <jrib> bfri: you don't have ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default/Cache?
[12:52] <Thalius> Satauros: I picked the internetsite option, since that matched my needs/requirements
[12:53] <Satauros> Thalius, i suppose i should be choosing 'mail send by smarthost, no local mail'?
[12:53] <Satauros> in my case
[12:53] <Thalius> Satauros: would make sense since you dont want to host a mailserver on the same host, and only want to send out forgot-my-passwords mail
[12:54] <Thalius> Satauros: You can always check if the relay works by sending a mail from commandline.
[12:55] <bfri> any one help me find where my temp files are when i open a youtube page?
[12:55] <jrib> bfri: can you answer my question?
[12:57] <bfri> jrib: no i dont have that directory
[12:57] <jrib> bfri: type "about:cache" in your firefox and see what the directory for Disk cache device is
[12:58] <Satauros> ok, thx Thalius, in case of any problems i'll notify (today or tomorrow, probably tomorrow :p)
[12:58] <elvissilva> tem algum usuario brasileiro na rede?
[12:58] <Thalius> Satauros: Yw. and goodluck :)
[12:58] <jrib> !br | elvissilva
[12:58] <Satauros> next question, to set my primary and secondary DNS, i suppose i only have to edit the /etc/resolv.conf file?
[12:58] <bfri> jrib: ok there it is i was trying to just go to that directory manually
[12:59] <Thalius> Satauros: Yup. considering you dont have a daemon generating the config file
[12:59] <Satauros> yes I read that the dhcp3 client reconfigures that resolv.conf file
[13:00] <Satauros> but i'll be using a static IP, so probably will remove the dhcp client, if possible
[13:00] <bfri> Jrib: if i just start in the "/" directory and follow the path i get stopped at ".mozilla" why is that
[13:00] <rams_pandu> how can I install a dictionary in ubuntu?
[13:00] <doodie> how do I join 2 empty partitions using gparted? Copy and PAste?
[13:00] <Thalius> Satauros: No need to remove it, just set the /etc/network/interfaces to static and it wont be used
[13:01] <Satauros> noted
[13:01] <jrib> bfri: show me what you are doing in pastebin, I do not understand what you said
[13:01] <Thalius> doodie: why not remove on partition and extend the other?
[13:02] <Reventlov> !ping
