[08:48] <bigmack83_> ok
[08:48] <Flannel> v_v: All of the runlevels are the same in Ubuntu (and Debian), except for single user mode (and shutdown and stuff)
[08:48] <toomai> bigmack83_: but it is useless if the linuy-users are only able to copy and stuff with sudo instead their own user
[08:48] <toomai> linuy=linux
[08:48] <v_v> Flannel: thanks just tell me where to modify it
[08:49] <Flannel> v_v: http://www.debian-administration.org/article/An_introduction_to_run-levels  Might be a good place to start
[08:49] <Flannel> !bum | v_v
[08:49] <user__> dhe
[08:49] <toomai> Flannel: but that doesnt actually solve the issue of v_v that there is no /etc/inittab anymore...where editing runlevel was easy as pie
[08:50] <v_v> Flannel: thanks. i cannot open the link
[08:50] <ActionParsnip> v_v: sudo apt-get install bum; gksudo bum
[08:50] <al__> i have got like a dos window in my terminal with a OK button at the end of a message, but when I hit ENTER nothing happens
[08:50] <al__> the message doesnt go away
[08:50] <v_v> toomai: you are right, im not an old man. i can accept the new stuff, the problem is, i don't know where it is
[08:50] <v_v> ActionParsnip: ok
[08:51] <ActionParsnip> al__: press alt+f2     type xkill    press enter, click on the annoyance
[08:51] <al__> ActionParsnip:  tried al lthat
[08:51] <al__> ActionParsnip: : its when I tried to install smartmontools
[08:51] <ActionParsnip> al__: is there anything in: ps -ef | less
[08:51] <toomai> v_v: sorry, wasnt suggesting you are an old man...but well...I do not see a reason why the old way had to be changed though...but that is me....
[08:52] <v_v> ActionParsnip: thanks, but is's not what i want
[08:52] <al__> ActionParsnip: dont worry
[08:52] <al__> got it
[08:52] <ActionParsnip> groovy
[08:52] <Flannel> toomai: Right, upstart changes that.  I believe /etc/event.d/ deals with it.  Or /etc/init/*
[08:52] <v_v> toomai: so tell me the new way
[08:52] <Flannel> toomai: I'm on Hardy, where we still have inittab, so I can't verify.
[08:52] <toomai> v_v: I do not know the new way...sorry...:(
[08:53] <sarloth> Flannel: he is trying to change the runlevel, init just changes the services that boot after you boot into runlevel 5
[08:53] <v_v> oh. . . .wa HAHAHA
[08:53] <toomai> Flannel and v_v: I just googled a bit...inittab is gone and replaced by other scripts used by upstart...it appears that /etc/inittab is gone, but will be used if you make your own
[08:53] <qdb> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently has not worked mount -a hanged with not mounting the folder
[08:54] <toomai> Flannel and v_v: sooooo...either you google for the new place in that event.d or upstart-scripts to determine the runlevel or you take an old inittab and put it in /etc/ and change it to your needs
[08:55] <al__> righto enough learning for tonight
[08:55] <al__> night guys
[08:55] <al__> thanks ActionParsnip
[08:55] <ActionParsnip> al__: you were quite successful today :)
[08:55] <toomai> v_v: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/78408/how-do-i-change-default-runlevel-in-ubuntu
[08:55] <toomai> v_v: maybe that helps
[08:56] <koshari> how come my 64 bit ubuntu wont render fonts in jre? example, http://s330.photobucket.com/albums/l416/koshar1/?action=view&current=good.png
[08:56] <toomai> koshari: what ubuntu version?
[08:56] <koshari> 9.10
[08:56] <koshari> toomai sorry 9.04
[08:57] <toomai> koshari: ah, okay...otherwise the answer is "beeettaaaa"...;)
[08:57] <toomai> koshari: sorry, the only idea I had was an old ubuntu without 64bit jdk/jre
[08:57] <ActionParsnip> koshari: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=8901 maybe, not sure
[08:58] <sarloth> v_v: you still around? you want to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:58] <v_v> toomai: thank you very much. i am angry now with the FVK GFW, which is a fire wall that i cannot go through it blocks almost everything.
[08:58] <ActionParsnip> koshari: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/libfonts-java may need installing. Could as in #java
[08:58] <Dayofswords> wooo!!!! ubuntu karmic beta works on my pc =)
[08:58] <v_v> sarloth: tell me more about the menu.list.
[08:58] <toomai> v_v: here, https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+question/6585 that might do actually the trick
[08:58] <toomai> v_v: oh...
[08:59] <qdb> sudo mount -t cifs //<IP_ADDRESS>/setevoy /media/sambashared --verbose asks for password
[08:59] <sarloth> v_v: it is huge and well documented... haha let me grep it real fast and see if I can give you a simple way to do what you want
[08:59] <qdb> what password?
[08:59] <toomai> v_v: I googled with the keywords "ubuntu change runlevel no inittab"
[08:59] <qdb> i want without password
[08:59] <v_v> toomai: that's the config in ubuntu9.04 , but not any more in ubuntu 9.10
[08:59] <qdb> then says mount.cifs kernel mount options: unc=//<IP_ADDRESS>\setevoy,user=root,ver=1,rw,ip=<IP_ADDRESS>,pass=********
[09:01] <mlissner> Hi, I have file names from a database that are encoded with URL encoding (e.g. File:///home/mlissner/Special%20Files). Does anybody know how to get these to be useful to bash?
[09:01] <mlissner> Like how to reverse URL encoding, or just make use of it?
[09:01] <ActionParsnip> qdb: you can allow the everyone full access to your data and not need a password but its MASSIVELY unsecure due to whom is included in the everyone group
[09:01] <qdb> how
[09:02] <qdb> it is already
[09:02] <ActionParsnip> qdb: change your windows share permissions and file access permissions. I strongly advise having a password
[09:02] <qdb> there is set access to read for all
[09:04] <ActionParsnip> qdb: i think if you run: sudo smbpasswd -a $USER     and have the same username and password in the user list on the windows side, you should be able to walk in
[09:05] <qdb> it should be regular windows user password on windows side or separate samba password?
[09:05] <qdb> i use it without password
[09:06] <koshari> ActionParsnip do you know what catogory would i file this bug under at launchpad?
[09:06] <qdb> so it should work with pressing enter on passw. prompt but does not
[09:06] <qdb> if it is regular user password
[09:06] <ActionParsnip> koshari: jre possibly
[09:07] <qdb> i needed guest option
[09:07] <qdb> but it hangs
[09:09] <tasslehoff> I'm trying to fix a pc where someone has deleted/maltracted the MBR. Gparted sees the disk as "available space". How can I restore the MBR?
[09:09] <ActionParsnip> tasslehoff: awesome name!!
[09:10] <ActionParsnip> tasslehoff: you can use test disk to write a FAT to the disk
[09:10] <tasslehoff> ActionParsnip: thanks :)
[09:10] <joaopinto> tasslehoff, MBRs are not related to partititions, you need to install an MBR
[09:10] <joaopinto> ActionParsnip, MBRs are not related to filesystem types
[09:10] <ActionParsnip> tasslehoff: look at this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery
[09:10] <joaopinto> !grub | tasslehoff
[09:11] <joaopinto> ActionParsnip, an MBR is installed, not reocevered
[09:11] <ActionParsnip> joaopinto: but if you stick a FAT on the disk it should see a whole partition, you can then use foremost to get the data off
[09:11] <joaopinto> ActionParsnip, MBR is the code which allows to boot the system, it is not related to partitions, and not to data, that is the partition table
[09:11] <ActionParsnip> joaopinto: but the disk is appearing as free space
 thx to that fucking kubuntu beta now my laptop is broken up: after the kubuntu charging bar it stays in black screen forever, nice!!
[09:12] <joaopinto> ActionParsnip, he told he wanted to install an MBR, not to recover data :P
[09:12] <tasslehoff> thanks. I'll have a go at "Restoring GRUB" to begin with.
[09:12] <ActionParsnip> joaopinto: care to take over ;)
[09:12] <tasslehoff> hehe
[09:12] <joaopinto> tasslehoff, if you want to recover data, that's a different story
[09:12] <joaopinto> then you following the link that ActionParsnip provided
[09:13] <tasslehoff> joaopinto: I hope to fix this so I don't have to settle for recovering data.
[09:13] <Rofl> NEED HELP: kubuntu beta stays in blackscreen forever after kubuntu charging bars dissapears... come on, thx for broking my laptop?
[09:13] <ActionParsnip> joaopinto: ;)
[09:13] <joaopinto> tasslehoff, fix what ? you have nothing installed, installing the MBR will not fix anything

[09:14] <ActionParsnip> Rofl: try resetting xorg.conf to vesa driver
[09:14] <tasslehoff> Rofl: rolling on the floor leering? ;)

[09:16] <ActionParsnip> Rofl: boot to recovery root console then run: nano /etc/X11/org.conf
[09:16] <magellan> hello, does anybody here use network interface bonding on Ubuntu 9.04 ? I cannot get it working in either mode 0, 1 or 2...
[09:16] <ActionParsnip> Rofl: change the driver line for your card to vesa, or add the line it its missing
[09:16] <joaopinto> ActionParsnip, he mentioned beta, this is the wrong channel, and you are providing the wrong help, there is no xorg.conf there
[09:17] <ActionParsnip> joaopinto: gah
[09:17] <koshari> how do i report a bug, ?
[09:17] <koshari> !bug
[09:18] <amine> Hello, I have a problem with my ubuntu, since a couple of days , eth0 and wlan can't download with more than  about 600bytes /s , any idea?
[09:18] <tasslehoff> joaopinto: background. I have a script I use to format an sd-card where you specify device on the command line (format-sd /dev/sdb). A colleague was using it, and tried putting /dev/sda instead. That was his harddrive... The system worked fine until a reboot, so now I'm trying to figure out if things can be repaired.
[09:18] <Laque> ActionParsnip: couldn't get your advice to work
[09:18] <Laque> ActionParsnip: no matter what i do to xorg.conf nothing changes
[09:19] <kripz> what's with my dropped packets? http://pastebin.com/m85eb368
[09:19] <joaopinto> tasslehoff, when you sau repair, you mean recovery, please check the link for recovery
[09:19] <koshari> anyone else notice that the bug report option keeps defaulting to the help page?
[09:19] <tasslehoff> joaopinto: ok.
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> Laque: so you wrote the X config to the xorg.conf file, you will see resolutions in the screen section. Change them to what you desire and restart the x server
[09:21] <Laque> ActionParsnip: i did so, in fact i even tried copying the line of resolutions from the backup of my 8.04
[09:21] <Laque> ActionParsnip: no change at all
[09:21] <Laque> ActionParsnip: i'm starting to think xorg.conf doesn't do anything LOL
[09:23] <Laque> ActionParsnip: I'll try using the entire xorg.conf i used on 8.04 and see if it does anything at all
[09:24] <Laque> ActionParsnip: going to reboot to see if it works, let me know if you think of anything else when i get back if you will XD
[09:29] <Laque> ActionParsnip: first attempt at the failed but i changed the @s to _s in the resolutions and it works perfect now
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> Laque: awesome
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> Laque: backup the file now :)
[09:30] <Laque> will do
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> Laque: then if you reinstall you can simply install the driver then drop the good file in
[09:30] <Laque> thanks a lot for helping
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> Laque: was all you duder, i only pointed the right way

[09:53] <pqrstuv> Hello
[09:53] <ActionParsnip> boscop: export http_proxy=http://username:password@proxyserver.net:port/
[09:54] <pqrstuv> If i type in a browser , say , ftp://example.com , is it for accessing ftp server?
[09:54] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: indeed
[09:54] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: you can also use<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[09:54] <pqrstuv> ActionParsnip: Is it similar to typing ftp in terminal?
[09:54] <Guest9783> How to give privileges to an root user?
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: kinda
[09:55] <bigmack83_> how to i boot into rescue mode on a server where i just have the ssh access and no cd
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> Guest9783: root has every priveledge you can concieve
[09:55] <Guest9783> wwell in phpmyadmin it sats  no priviliges. for root local user
[09:55] <Guest9783> *says
[09:55] <Grommel> my mysql doesnt look at the -u parameter anymore. if i type in: mysql from localhost it just starts mysql
[09:55] <Grommel> same goes for mysql -u something
[09:55] <Grommel> i can still login with root though
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> bigmack83_: reboot the system , press  esc on the keyboard and select recovery mode
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> !root | Grommel
[09:56] <subone> When I fullscreen anything it mirrors it onto my other monitor even though I have both set up to display seperately not mirrored. The other monitor appears scrambled and mixed up a little though. Any ideas what could cause this garbling of the second, albeit unexpected, image?
[09:56] <bigmack83_> ActionParsnip, yea but its a VPS and i only have ssh access, so when its rebooting i cant hit escape
[09:56] <pqrstuv> ActionParsnip: vsftp is running on my machine, how would i use it?
[09:57] <pqrstuv> ActionParsnip: I have installed vsftpd.
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-vsftpd-ftp-service-server/
[09:58] <ActionParsnip> bigmack83_: then you may have to change the boot to default to the failsafe rather than normal boot
[09:58] <boscop> ActionParsnip: do I have to reboot so that the proxy is used?
[09:58] <ActionParsnip> boscop: no, its ready to go now
[09:59] <boscop> ActionParsnip: not even disconnect and reconnect?
[09:59] <ActionParsnip> boscop: no, its all ready to rock and roll
[09:59] <boscop> i.e. poff and pon?
[09:59] <boscop> ok thanks
[09:59] <Grommel> ActionParsnip: i don't understand
[09:59] <Grommel> if i just start "mysql" with or without sudo: it allows me to log in
[10:00] <Grommel> am i logged in as root then?
[10:00] <bigmack83_> ActionParsnip, thats my problem, im getting ;command not found on all my commands because of a misprint on a line in my /etc/profile file so i cant actually edit my boot file to tell it to use the failsafe instead of default
[10:00] <ActionParsnip> Grommel: you never log in as root, use sudo and log on as your normal user
[10:00] <ActionParsnip> bigmack83_: then you got real trouble

[10:04] <Grommel> is that the first unix user created that has that access you mean?
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> Grommel: your user is that, a user. If you need admin power add sudo to the start of the command
[10:04] <alteregoa> kripz, because your nic is overclocked
[10:05] <kripz> alteregoa, and how did that happen?
[10:05] <alteregoa> defective chip or overclocked OS

[10:20] <pqrstuv> ActionParsnip: As web server means putting files in /var/www , do i have to put files in a specific directory?
[10:20] <sara__> ActionParsnip, i installed it from the repos so it should take care of libs deps and drivs by itself, plus i also have the ubuntu-extras installed and i can watch any kind of video on vlc, youtube etc. plus i do have nvidia drivers correctly installed
[10:20] <Appiah> "5.2.6.dfsg.1-3ubuntu4.2" thats the stable package today
[10:20] <pqrstuv> ActionParsnip: Can other who don't know my system user-account and password download from my pc?

[10:21] <Appiah> karmic is on 5.2 too
[10:21] <pqrstuv> ActionParsnip: ?
[10:21] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: you will need to create a new user, they can then connect with the credentials
[10:21] <Appiah> 5.2.10*
[10:21] <ActionParsnip> sara__: it will not take care of video drivers for you though
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> sara__: ok nvidia drivers installed is good

[10:22] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: then anyone can connect to the server, literally anyone
[10:22] <Appiah> jano: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5
[10:22] <Appiah> I see no 5.3
[10:23] <sara__> ActionParsnip, since i had it insalled from the repos i unistalled it and try to put it back from the website, its the latest version at least
[10:23] <pqrstuv> ActionParsnip: What will be the command ? ftp ? ? and what will be the password?
[10:23] <Appiah> not even PPA
[10:24] <Guest9783> i put privileges by grant select in terminal vindow. but phpmyadmin saying grant: NO
[10:24] <pqrstuv> ActionParsnip: ?
[10:24] <obiwan_> hi, please anyone got a macbook? i'm (insert bad word) with it cause i can't run aircrack-ng installed from repos. It's all because the broadcom card and its incompatible driver. I heard about the free b43 driver, but it won't work when i modprobe it, so i need your help :)
[10:24] <Appiah> not even debian testing/unstable got 5.3 jano
[10:24] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: there is no password, you are allowing every man and his dog access to your data
[10:24] <Appiah> experimental is running 5.3
[10:24] <jano> yeah i see
[10:24] <Appiah> so thats why it's 5.2 and not 5.3
[10:24] <Appiah> its not stable yet
[10:24] <pqrstuv> ActionParsnip: But logging as anonymous , if i do ls can't see anything.
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: literally everyone who notices an ftp server will try to connect anonymously and start downloading your files
[10:25] <jano> by the way, the problem with php i have is that i was playing with it yesterday, and today i simple echo to output doesnt do a thing
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: then you will need to tweak the config file and restart the service
[10:25] <indus> anyone here has m2a vm motherboard?
[10:25] <jano> by which i mean if i run php test.php, which contains echo " hello"; nothing will appear in console
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> !anyone | indus
[10:26] <indus> ActionParsnip: thats my question
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> indus: then its offtopic
[10:26] <indus> itss not ubuntu related, but its emergency
[10:27] <indus> nvm
[10:27] <pqrstuv> ActionParsnip: If anyone doesn't know my hostname , can he/she access my pc?
[10:27] <indus> ActionParsnip: i solved yesterday's problem, nvidia driver was not installing properly
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: they can scan address ranges and see an ftp service running
[10:28] <indus> ActionParsnip: once activated, i could boot in again
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: if its only for internal users, and not for access on WWW then its fine
[10:28] <MikeChelen> pqrstuv: it depends if you have a firewall on the system or your router
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> indus: aweosme, good one :)
[10:28] <indus> ActionParsnip: i believe restricted kernel modules had not made in for the .13 kernel
[10:28] <indus> ActionParsnip: i installed driver ver 173
[10:28] <obiwan_> sure, he needs just to stay in promiscouos mode and read the headers
[10:29] <AdvoWork> anyone got the link to the database that contains what printers ubuntu can use, or is compatible with?

[10:29] <luiX_> hi
[10:29] <obiwan_> hi luix
[10:30] <ActionParsnip> indus: i use the 190 beta driver with my 6150 onboard nvidia
[10:30] <luiX_> anyone who can help me out with some issues about preseeds on ubuntu server?
[10:30] <obiwan_> hi, please anyone got a macbook? i'm (insert bad word) with it cause i can't run aircrack-ng installed from repos. It's all because the broadcom card and its incompatible driver. I heard about the free b43 driver, but it won't work when i modprobe it, so i need your help :)
[10:30] <pqrstuv> ActionParsnip: If i type ls , nothing happens, it's annonymous login , after doing ftp localhost , i get a promt like this Name (localhost:<user>): , now i typed anonymous , then hit enter without giving password
[10:30] <indus> ActionParsnip: why
[10:30] <ActionParsnip> indus: laughs, i'm a real massochist as I dont care about my systems
[10:31] <ActionParsnip> indus: i also have bleeding edge xorg and alpha flash plugin running in firefox-3.7
[10:31] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: then you need to check what access the anonymous login has and give it more access
[10:31] <alfredo> re

[10:44] <ActionParsnip> goblinshark: community
[10:44] <notk0> goblinshark it's very versatile you can shape it any way you want
[10:44] <goblinshark> is it more difficult than linux
[10:44] <goblinshark> or vista
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> goblinshark: otherwise its like many linux distros
[10:45] <Enissay> Hi all, i started a download using wget, so a terminal window opened, when i clicked on close, the download stopped but the windows dosnt close. and still wont
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> goblinshark: no one ca tell you that, we dont know you any
[10:45] <pqrstuv> Can't log in as anonymous user , typed anonymous , didn't give any password, but after login successfully if i type ls , no listing of files, Does anyone know the solution?
[10:45] <goblinshark> I mean for you
[10:45] <titanicheart> simon
[10:45] <titanicheart> ?
[10:45] <titanicheart> Can any1 tel me more softwares like Cheese Webcam booth
[10:45] <notk0> Enissay type ps -A | grep bash
[10:46] <notk0> tinanicheart: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam
[10:46] <iGama> goblinshark, Ubuntu, for me, its easyer than Windows.
[10:46] <indus> titanicheart: try camorama
[10:46] <Enissay> notk0, in that window?
[10:46] <notk0> Enissay you would want to kill it;s process i assume
[10:47] <indus> !info camorama
[10:47] <Enissay> yup
[10:47] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: if you read: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7520  you will see the default path for anonymous is /usr/share/empty. You will need to change this. DO NOT set it as /home/$USER
[10:47] <pqrstuv> Ok
[10:47] <notk0> type in a new terminal window ps -A | grep bash
[10:47] <goblinshark> do you have vista and unbutu loaded?
[10:47] <goblinshark> who here palys wow
[10:47] <Enissay> notk0, 3242 pts/0    00:00:00 bash
[10:48] <iGama> goblinshark, i dont use windows. just linux.
[10:48] <iGama> I have friend that play WoW just on Linux
[10:48] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: fyi, i anticipate you getting issue down the line with identity theft if you misconfigure this thing so be careful
[10:48] <notk0> Enissay now type sudo kill -9 3242
[10:48] <notk0> technically therre should be 2 one for first bash and another for second
[10:48] <goblinshark> I'm about to recover my HD and reformat ive lost the WoW serial key would I be able to DL the file and continue playing on my accnt?
[10:49] <pqrstuv> ActionParsnip: There is no file as empty in /usr/share
[10:49] <iGama> goblinshark, that i don't know, check the WoW forums and support
[10:50] <ActionParsnip> pqrstuv: check you config file. I dont use this but guides seem to point to that folder, see where yours is pointing to and change it
[10:51] <Enissay> notk0, got this: "Warning: Program '/bin/bash' crashed." but the window still there =(
[10:51] <notk0> you did it with sudo
[10:51] <notk0> ?
[10:52] <Enissay> sure
[10:52] <notk0> well i don't know what else you could try a restart :)
[10:52] <notk0> or just a x server restart
[10:52] <Enissay> =(
[10:52] <notk0> or maybe try
[10:52] <notk0> ps -A | grep wget
[10:52] <notk0> and see if it returns anything
[10:53] <DryGrain> i downloaded a program and it's a .sh file
[10:53] <Enissay> cos it do so all the time, do i have to restart each time
[10:53] <DryGrain> how do i insteall?
[10:53] <notk0> Enissay did you try ps -A grep wget ?
[10:54] <notk0> DryGrain you just remove the folder/files if you know were they are
[10:54] <Enissay> notk0, :D, it gives me another pid wich i used to kill him
[10:54] <DryGrain> remove?
[10:54] <Enissay> thanks mate
[10:55] <notk0> well glad it worked
[10:55] <notk0> DryGrain delete
[10:55] <notk0> ?
[10:55] <DryGrain> i want to install this program, but all the download is for unix is is an .sh file
[10:55] <DryGrain> how do i handle the .sh file
[10:56] <lucas__> Right click, go to permissions click enable execution, then double click should ask you to run edit, click run
[10:57] <lucas__> DryGrain,  Richt click -> properties
[10:58] <DryGrain> what about the open with tab
[10:58] <notk0> DryGrain it needs executable permissions first
[10:59] <cabaro> DryGrain: sudo +x ./filename
[10:59] <DryGrain> yay running installer
[10:59] <DryGrain> thx
[10:59] <cabaro> DryGrain: sudo chmod +x ./filename

[11:11] <notk0> lab open the terminal
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> lab: what is the output of: sudo lshw -C display | grep VGA
[11:12] <ngirard> Hi all. What's the general strategy for overcoming such kind of errors:
[11:12] <ngirard> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/kde-nightly-kdesupport_20091009+svn1033329-0neon1_i386.deb: tentative de remplacement de « /opt/kde-nightly/share/icons/oxygen/128x128/devices/video-display.png », qui appartient aussi au paquet kde-nightly-kdebase
[11:12] <ngirard> which means that an upgrade failed just because one file (/opt/kde-nightly/share/icons/oxygen/128x128/devices/video-display.png) belongs to several packets
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> ngirard: force install it, and log a bug please
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> ngirard: sudo dpkg --force-all -i /var/cache/apt/archives/kde-nightly-kdesupport_20091009+svn1033329-0neon1_i386.deb; sudo apt-get -f install

[11:45] <manish> so how do i do it

[11:45] <Rigongia> shade : and subsequently sudo nvidia-xconfig --no-composite (was xconfig even in last message)
[11:46] <manish> but i can enable effects
[11:46] <shadeslayer> Rigongia: hmm...
[11:46] <shadeslayer> Rigongia: how did he install the driver?

[13:00] <nic1> it is a window manager
[13:00] <nic1> spent whole day in figuring out how to install it?
[13:00] <nic1> but in vain
[13:01] <rd1381> if its a famous app ( i mean used by many poeple ) usually somebody has made an installer binary for ubuntu from it
[13:01] <rd1381> a deb package
[13:01] <rd1381> what is this app name
[13:01] <AceKing> After installing 9.10 beta, all my movies are playing in a very low color...  If I open the movie with Avidemux, it plays in color. I tried uninstalling Totem completely and reinstalling but it didn't help. Any ideas?
[13:01] <Pici> AceKing : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Karmic/9.10 support/discussion.
[13:01] <AceKing> Thanks Pici
[13:02] <rd1381> nandu: still there?
[13:03] <nic1> rd1381, it's name is i3 tiling window manager
[13:04] <rd1381> nic1: http://i3.zekjur.net/docs/building_ubuntu_9.04.html
[13:04] <nic1> i need to dev using that source code, so i need to compile from source and there is no deb package available
[13:04] <shrapx> hello
[13:04] <rd1381> its there official guide for building it on ubuntu
[13:04] <rd1381> ???\
[13:04] <nic1> hey i went through that link, it's to compile on AMD based box, where as i am on intel i386
[13:04] <rd1381> dev?
[13:04] <rd1381> oh
[13:05] <sergemine> Hi, everyone. Please suggest me on what's th current Ubuntu beta testing chatroom name???
[13:05] <rd1381> amd64 means 64 bit (both intel and amd)
[13:05] <nic1> yes it is, i went through tat,..tried..failed..
[13:05] <nic1> oh..
[13:05] <nic1> hey but i was getting segmentation fault
[13:05] <Pici> sergemine: #ubuntu+1
[13:05] <bourke> hi, when I have split screens, I can either do ^a+^i or ^a+tab to switch to the next area. but, is there a way to switch back an area?
[13:05] <rd1381> so just replace amd64 with working string ( i586 ??)
[13:05] <nic1> when i tried to follow that link
[13:06] <nic1> i386 is mine
[13:06] <nic1> by the way i386 is of how many bits? any idea??
[13:06] <Pici> nic1: 32
[13:06] <nic1> i tried and from the very first command git, i got seg fault
[13:06] <shrapx> hello i have a problem relating to dpkg, i believe the system crashed during an installation, it tells me to "sudo dpkg --configure -a" which causes the system to hang after several lines
[13:06] <Guest269> hi, i tryed to edit my eth0
[13:07] <nic1> oh..then that link i can not use right?
[13:07] <Guest269> and ive messed it up, icant login via putty anymore what can i do?
[13:07] <Dr_Willis> claify to the channel what 'edit my eth0' means
[13:08] <Pici> nic1: We also do not support or suggest installing any packages directly from debian, they may irrperably mess up your install.
[13:08] <rd1381> nic1 : its not that hard . if u go to the ftp addresses ,you find the whole packages there ,i386,amd65 ,sparc and so on
[13:09] <nic1> rd1381, i dint get you exactly
[13:09] <nic1> ftp addresses?
[13:09] <Guest269> configure my network ip
[13:09] <nic1> i am  completely new to using linux or ubuntu
[13:09] <rd1381> like http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libx/libx11/ for first package
[13:09] <rd1381> and so on
[13:09] <rd1381> but instead of that
[13:09] <Takinator> nicl: your git command segfaults ?
[13:10] <C-S-B> ugh. Compiled a new kernel and webcam died. :(
[13:10] <nic1> Takinator, yes it gives segfault
[13:10] <rd1381> u can use ubuntu package search engine  like this http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libx11-dev
[13:10] <Guest269> http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-9.04-ispconfig-3-p3
[13:10] <rd1381> and find the name of package and install it in ur package manager
[13:10] <Guest269> i messed that up, and cant get in via putty anymore
[13:11] <Dr_Willis> Guest269:  you may need to get to the machine locally and fix the  Nic settings.
[13:11] <Takinator> anything in syslog ?
[13:11] <dreamvirus> Hello! I have a question...Are there motherboards that support two or more CPU chips on 1 motherboard?
[13:11] <Guest269> ive tryed, but im new to this and cant get it working
[13:11] <nic1> that ftp does not have the package, i need
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> !ot | dreamvirus
[13:12] <rd1381> yes it does but as i said use ubunutu package search instead
[13:12] <dreamvirus> ok
[13:12] <myeggo> hello, this is my logrotate configuration: http://pastebin.com/m7020dffa - but it still stores the log weekly, someone could give me a link or any idea about how to make it working? thanks in advance
[13:12] <rd1381> it foinds the package name for u and u can install it in ur ubuntu
[13:13] <Dr_Willis> Guest269:  get to the machine, boot it up. log in.. edit the  /etc/network/interfaces with the proper settings. .or leave it at dhcp
[13:13] <Guest269> but i need an ip for cpanel
[13:14] <sobersabre> hi is 9.10 going to be LTS or non LTS ?
[13:14] <C-S-B> non lts

[13:14] <C-S-B> 10.04 = lts

[13:14] <Dr_Willis> Guest269:  no idea what cpanel is..  one step at a time.. get it working.. figure how ti propery configure a static ip - if you need one.
[13:14] <sobersabre> thanks.
[13:14] <obiwan_> hi, please anyone got a macbook? i'm (insert bad word) with it cause i can't run aircrack-ng installed from repos. It's all because the broadcom card and its incompatible driver. I heard about the free b43 driver, but it won't work when i modprobe it, so i need your help :)
[13:14] <Pici> myeggo: Perhaps we don't know the answer to your question.  You can also try to ask in #ubuntu-server if you link.
[13:14] <Pici> myeggo: s/link/like/
[13:14] <slacker_nl> Guest269: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkConfigurationCommandLine
[13:14] <C-S-B> obiwan
[13:14] <myeggo> thanks Pici
[13:15] <C-S-B> obiwan_: you need the firmware files
[13:15] <sobersabre> obiwan_: can you be more specific ?
[13:15] <obiwan_> great! in the end somebody to talk about hehe
[13:15] <Guest269>  /etc/network/interfaces  i edited that and messed it up now dont no how to edit it again
[13:15] <obiwan_> i'll explain
[13:15] <Guest269> ?
[13:15] <sobersabre> there are several generations of macbook. there are those with nvidia graphics, and those "older".
[13:15] <obiwan_> i got a macbook, wtih a wifi interface and broadcom 4328 rev 02 chipset
[13:16] <Dr_Willis> Guest269:  you MIGHT want to spend some time reading a few command line basics/tutorials/guides  you use a text editor such as nano/vi/vim/mcedit or any of a dozen others.
[13:16] <obiwan_> i'm trying to run aircrack suite, so i need to put it in monitor mode and all that
[13:16] <Dr_Willis> Guest269:  how did you edit it befor?  You edit it the same way.
[13:16] <slacker_nl> myeggo: run logrotate with the debug and verbose options
[13:16] <slacker_nl> myeggo: that will tell you why something is rotated
[13:17] <rd1381> nic1: which pachage?
[13:17] <rd1381> package
[13:17] <sobersabre> obiwan_: I don't understand you. what does aitcrack have to do with macbook ?
[13:17] <rd1381> can u name it?
[13:17] <soulnet-4> vggbhm
[13:17] <Danielpk> Guys, what i need do for external connnection at mysql? I made one user with %, but still cant connect.
[13:17] <soulnet-4> nvnhmok]
[13:17] <obiwan_> but i can't in ubunt, either in slax, backtrack, and many other distros. In lspci i get "Unknown interface broadcom 4328 ..........."
[13:17] <soulnet-4> ////////////nhno
[13:17] <C-S-B> obiwan_: you need the firmware files in /lib/firmware in order to modprobe b43
[13:17] <slacker_nl> Guest269: see the link I posted, it has examples for static and dhcp configs
[13:18] <nic1> rd1381, it is i3-3.b
[13:18] <Dr_Willis> Danielpk:  mysql server configs have settings to define what range of ip's and users, and so on can connect. check the config files/mysql dics.
[13:18] <sobersabre> obiwan_: do you have another USB nic ?
[13:18] <obiwan_> yeah csb, but i don't have b43, i have wl. Do you have a macbook with b43? does it work in monitor mode?
[13:18] <sobersabre> I mean wifi NIC.
[13:18] <obiwan_> nope sobersabre :/
[13:18] <Dr_Willis> Danielpk:  perhaps a 'listen to'   setting in the config file.
[13:18] <C-S-B> wl drivers and b43 drivers both work for the broadcom chipsets
[13:18] <Danielpk> Dr_Willis i will check.
[13:18] <Danielpk> =)
[13:18] <rd1381> nic1: no i mean which of that dev packages menioned in their official guide
[13:18] <sobersabre> obiwan_: what does lspci say to you, again ?
[13:18] <C-S-B> obiwan_: b43 is the only one that will put the broadcomm into monitor
[13:19] <C-S-B> obiwan_: try b43
[13:19] <obiwan_> yeah, C-S-B , but wl is a new one, and monitor mode is not supported
[13:19] <obiwan_> yeah, but i read that b43 won't work with 4328 chipset, nor 4318 which is my mum's
[13:19] <C-S-B> obiwan_: wl works on my card and so does b43
[13:19] <myeggo> slacker_nl: thank you, it gave me a clue - syslog entry were duplicated, anyway, after deleted one of both, it says that old files will be removed, so i guess i only need add a parameter for avoid that
[13:20] <C-S-B> obiwan_: lspci | grep broad*
[13:20] <alazyworkaholic> I want to use a command line tool to deal with duplicate files. 10,000's of them. I want to press "2" every time I'm given a choice of which file to preserve, but that's not baked into the utility. Is there any way I can run the program & 'virtually press' 2 thousands of times?
[13:20] <obiwan_> wl in monitor mode C-S-B ? I'm using wl right now for wifi, but what i need is to set my if in monitor mode
[13:20] <rd1381> nic1: and the version of i3-wm in the ubuntu 9.04 it just one version older and newest version
[13:20] <obiwan_> brb hehe
[13:20] <C-S-B> obiwan_: monitor mode only with b43
[13:20] <Dr_Willis> alazyworkaholic:  'expect' is a tool to auto mate scripts
[13:20] <obiwan_> yeah that's what i meant
[13:20] <Dr_Willis> !info expect
[13:21] <C-S-B> obiwan_: so try the b43 module instead of wl
[13:21] <shrapx> hi can someone offer some advice about a crash im getting
[13:21] <C-S-B> what chipset do you have exactly
[13:21] <C-S-B> obiwan_: ^
[13:21] <obiwan_> but for what i read in the b43 developers web, it isn't still compatible with my 4328 chipset model in monitor mode, do you have the same i have? does it work? brb i'm prompting the lspci
[13:21] <erUSUL> alazyworkaholic: expect can be instructed to answer 2 to cli programs
[13:22] <erUSUL> !info expect
[13:22] <veggteppe> Anyone that can recommend a good "Linux for beginners" ebook ? - Appreciate any help :).
[13:22] <Dr_Willis> alazyworkaholic:  or check out the 'yes' command.   'yes 2 | thecommand' pipes 2 to it forever..
[13:22] <erUSUL> veggteppe: ubuntu pocket guide ?
[13:22] <Dr_Willis> !training
[13:22] <veggteppe> erUSUL: Something called that? gonna google it:) thanks.
[13:22] <erUSUL> veggteppe: yes is a free ebook
[13:22] <Dr_Willis> veggteppe:  theres also the gnome docs/help :)
[13:23] <veggteppe> erUSUL / Dr_Willis: Thanks guys:)
[13:23] <obiwan_> Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4328 802.11a/b/g/n [14e4:4328] (rev 03), kernel in use ssb and wl and driver wl that's what i get
[13:23] <Dr_Willis> veggteppe:  check out that del.ico.us web site and see what sites got training./ubuntu tags.
[13:23] <obiwan_> sry i mean, kernel modules in use ssb and wl, kernel driver wl
[13:24] <nic1> rd1381, dev packages menioned in their official guide ?? i dint get it clearly
[13:24] <veggteppe> Dr_Willis: Will do
[13:24] <nic1> xcb
[13:24] <alazyworkaholic> Dr_Willis: Ok, I'll install expect & read the man page. I'm a bit of a noob but I'll try to figure it out. re the yes command. Would it be something like: yes 2 | fdupes -rd ~/Photos ~/Pictures
[13:24] <C-S-B> obiwan_: i think you aren't going to have any luck getting it to work with monitor mode, I think all the wireless n cards don't work with that
[13:24] <C-S-B> I'll have a read
[13:24] <obiwan_> could you tell me which if chipset you have C-S-B ?
[13:24] <C-S-B> 4311
[13:24] <obiwan_> but i don't care it doesn't work in n mode, i'm done if it works in a/b/g
[13:24] <Guest9783> How can i install pgAdmin on ubuntu?
[13:25] <nic1> rs1381, are you there?
[13:25] <obiwan_> no router still uses n , so i don't need my card works in that mode
[13:25] <Faithful> Hey, can someone help... I have a linux box I'm shelled into but it seems that / is not mounted, well when I look at what's mounted I don't see / mounted and when I run df on the partition / is on I gives me tmpfs mounted on /dev
[13:25] <obiwan_> 4311, lucky man hehe
[13:25] <nic1> can you explain me a bit more simpler, i am kind of dimlight..new to all this stuff
[13:25] <C-S-B> obiwan_: not lucky, I put it in there! :P
[13:25] <obiwan_> 1 question, C-S-B , did you use fwcutter? i read online about extracting firmware ,
[13:25] <Dr_Willis> alazyworkaholic:  try it and see  - thats seems to be about righjt.
[13:26] <rd1381> nic1: the page i mentioned earlier that was a guide how to build the latest version of ur app on ubuntu ,it had a list of deb files and their urls .but u said they were for debial and for amd64 so i said u can use ubuntu package search to download the coresponding packages
[13:26] <Dr_Willis> alazyworkaholic:  there are other dupelicate finder programs out there also.
[13:26] <obiwan_> heheh :P
[13:26] <C-S-B> obiwan_: yes ?i used fwcutter, but there are files on the net
[13:26] <lab> this procedure is a disaster :  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI  . is there anything better for installing these driver on 9.0.4 ?
[13:26] <Dr_Willis> alazyworkaholic:  IF 'fdupes' accepts that sort of input.. it might not.
[13:27] <nic1> rd1381, when i started following that page, the first statement git itself gave me segfault, so could not progress in my previous attempt
[13:27] <lab> I strongly suggest to remove it from ubuntu's site. I only have damaged my installation
[13:27] <obiwan_> C-S-B, i got two options, one is fwcutter +b43, the other is ndiswrapper+the bootcamp windows wifi driver developed by apple
[13:27] <Guest269> does anybody have a guide to edit the eth0 so i no how i can set it up for my server please?
[13:27] <C-S-B> obiwan_: you need the firmware in lib/firmware in order to modprobe b43. easy though, install fwcutter from the ubuntu repo and it handles all that
[13:27] <simon> Quick question, as a server newbie, but having used nad installed Ubuntu on a home PC several times over the past 18 months, do I need to buy 9-5 support, or will I be able to figure it all out with online forums like I did with the PC Ubuntu?
[13:27] <C-S-B> obiwan_:  ndiswrapper is teh suck imo
[13:27] <Takinator> nicl : anything in syslog related to your segfault?
[13:28] <obiwan_> ok C-S-B ! then we're getting close hehe
[13:28] <Guest269> i want to run a few websites from my home pc, but can get the ip configs to work please may somebody help me?
[13:28] <rd1381> nic1: look . for installing from source of a program u need some libraries installed as well that the compiler uses for building ur app. they usually have a dev suffix at the end
[13:28] <pikustan> hello
[13:28] <simon> hello
[13:29] <jrib> simon: that really depends on you and what exactly you want to use the server for
[13:29] <obiwan_> a few more questions hehe, i can actually load b43 but it won't detect my wifi nic, will it when i put the fwcutter working?
[13:29] <pikustan> looking for private chat help - xp doesnt start up
[13:29] <jrib> pikustan: /join ##windows
[13:29] <C-S-B> obiwan_: you'll need to rmmod your wl driver
[13:29] <simon> jrib: just a file server and DHCP
[13:29] <obiwan_> yeah sure
[13:29] <obiwan_> just wl?
[13:29] <obiwan_> ssb, or any other else?
[13:29] <jrib> simon: enjoy: https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/index.html
[13:29] <nic1> rd1381, i jusst started following that link, first command is git so running it..i guess that may fail..
[13:29] <rd1381> nic1: so u have to find the coresponding dev packages in ur ubuntu synaptic pack manager.( do u know how too use synaptic??)
[13:29] <simon> file server for windows apps that run on own PCs such as SAGE
[13:29] <Guest269> does anybody do private chat? so aybe somebody could help me with these ip cofigs please?
[13:29] <nic1> so you say i need to get all the other first?
[13:29] <Guest269> maybe*
[13:30] <Takinator> nicl ?
[13:30] <lab> It's really annoying that... a help should be published in the official site only if it's a valid help. this one: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI is a real disaster. it only corrupts intallations
 w8
[13:30] <nic1> rd1381, ya i know how to use synaptic
[13:30] <jrib> !pm | Guest269
[13:30] <Dr_Willis> Guest269:  your isp supplies you with  a static ip?
[13:30] <Guest269> yes
 good
[13:30] <Dr_Willis> Then.. i thought when  the pc sends a DHCP request it SHOULD always get the same ip then. No need to change anything
[13:31] <simon> thanks jrib
[13:31] <Guest269> i have a static ip, and i want to install a control panel called cpanel, but i have to get the ips sorted out for cpanel to work
[13:31] <nic1> rd1381, thank you, i am working on ubuntu from past 3 months, the first linux box anyways
[13:31] <nic1> so, i must know synaptic atleast.
 git gives an error? segmentation? that one off the worst error in linux. because its hard to diagnose the error source
[13:31] <nic1> still running
[13:31] <Guest269> but it keeps brining back an ip like <IP_ADDRESS> and its trying to say that this is my ip
[13:32] <rd1381> nic1: where do u run git command?
[13:32] <Guest269> i cant run websites from that ip, only i would see it lol
[13:32] <nic1> rd1381, ya i knew that from small c programs that segfault is hectic to diagnise
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> Guest269:  thats the local lan ip. Not the wan ip.  perhapss you can jsut set cpanel settings to use the other ip.
[13:32] <nic1> in my command prompt
[13:32] <nic1> i think there are some errors in git
[13:32] <thomas_sch> if i wanna install xen on my pc i just have to install xen-utils do i?
[13:33] <Guest269> it only pics up <IP_ADDRESS> it doesnt pick up any other ips, thats why im trying to edit it so it would pick up my inet ip
[13:33] <Guest269> ?
[13:33] <rd1381> nic1: i mean where is it running from? maybe u dont have access to that part of hardrive ( but ithis is a small chance of occuring)
[13:33] <nic1> rd1381, shall i tell you the first errror?
[13:33] <rd1381> yes
[13:33] <Dr_Willis> Guest269:  i think you need to check cpanel configs.. not the  network ip configs.
[13:33] <nic1> i dint get you on that harddrive matter
[13:34] <Guest269> so i use a dhcp " think thats right"
[13:34] <Guest269> and in a minute ill show you exactly what i mean
[13:34] <aquarius> I have Thunderbird set to play the "Default system sound for new mail" when new mail arrives, which it turns out is a very jarring unpleasant beep. How can i find what that default system sound is, and change it?
[13:34] <Guest269> says that <IP_ADDRESS> is my main server ip adress
[13:34] <rd1381> nic1:nevermind
[13:34] <rd1381> nic1can u tell me the error?
[13:35] <nic1> error: Failed connect to code.stapelberg.de:80; Unknown error 2 (curl_result = 7, http_code = 0, shal = some hex numbe
[13:35] <Guest269> i need to change <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:35] <rd1381> nic1 : oh so its a network error
[13:35] <nic1> ya ths is the first error
[13:35] <nic1> is it? so how can i try fixing it?
[13:35] <Dr_Willis> Guest269:  and you have a whole lan? this pc has 2 network cards? or whate exactly?
[13:36] <Guest269> Dr_Willis
[13:36] <rd1381> nic1: when it says failed to connect , what do u get from that? it means it cant reach the desired website
[13:36] <Guest269> please may i pm?
[13:36] <Dr_Willis> Guest269:  not really. I may have to leave at any time. I think you might be confused about some network basics however.
[13:37]  * Dr_Willis is babysitting
[13:37] <rd1381> nic1: can u try this? git clone git://code.stapelberg.de/git/i3
[13:37] <nic1> rd1381, ya that sounds obvious
[13:37] <nic1> ya sure, wil try right now
[13:37] <rd1381> this replaces htpp with git
[13:37] <Guest269> ok
[13:37] <nic1> shall i pastebin the whole results of previous git?
[13:37] <n8tuser> Guest269-> do you have a network layout drawing?  can you post that in pastebin?
[13:38] <Guest269> yea
[13:38] <Guest269> http://paste.ubuntu.com/292339/
[13:38] <rd1381> nic1: no
[13:39] <rd1381> just test the new one and report back
[13:39] <nic1> ok. i am running the command suggested
[13:39] <Guest269> i need to change the inet addr to my internet ip
[13:39] <n8tuser> Guest269-> also kindly change your nick to something unique and not start with Guest, its hard to tab complete your nick.
[13:39] <Guest269> ?
[13:39] <Guest269> ok
[13:39] <nic1> it tells, fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
[13:39] <kLoNeD> there we go
[13:39] <obiwan_> hey C-S-B  you still there?
[13:39] <coz_> nic1,  yeah same response here   so its not on your end
[13:39] <nic1> rd1381, did you use i3 wm anytime?
[13:39] <rd1381> nic1 sigh
[13:39] <C-S-B> obiwan_: yup
[13:40] <rd1381> no
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  and your pc is connected to a ROUTER? or direct to the internet?
[13:40] <C-S-B> obiwan_: just
[13:40] <obiwan_> nice :)
[13:40] <rd1381> nic1: no never heard of it
[13:40] <nic1> oh..
[13:40] <kLoNeD> through a router @ Dr_Willis
[13:40] <rd1381> nic1 i just use kde and i am happy
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  thats your issue then.
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  the ip of the pc is correct.. Your ROUTER has the other ip.
[13:40] <nic1> it's not for my use, but for my work..
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  you have to forwared the traffic to the pc
[13:41] <kLoNeD> Dr_Willis i need to make inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS> look like inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS>
[13:41] <kLoNeD> ?
[13:41] <obiwan_> hey i got a question, for b43 to work, do i need to extract the firmware from the b43 driver right? can i extract it from the wl? in this web they work with b43 but they get it from wl-apsta.o please take a look http://www.linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43
[13:41] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  You need to forward traffic  to the pc  via the proper settings in the router configs
[13:41] <kLoNeD> because cpanel keeps picking up <IP_ADDRESS> when it should look like <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:41] <nic1> rd1381, i am running git again..
[13:41] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  No it should NOT look like 82.xxxxxxxx
[13:41] <rd1381> nic1:oh.why for work? is not commercial .its not minimal.its not popular :)
[13:42] <kLoNeD> ok, so how do i get cpanel to pick up my <IP_ADDRESS> ip
[13:42] <kLoNeD> ?
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  the connections to your router need to get forwared to that 192.168.x.x ip
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> as ive said 5 times now.
[13:42] <nic1> boss told me to use, so just trying
[13:42] <kLoNeD> i have it all forwaded
[13:42] <kLoNeD> it all setup
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  then you missed somthing or it would be working.
[13:42] <nic1> rd1381, do you have any idea about any tiling wm?
[13:43] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  you  could set up the pc on a 'dmz'  on the router also.. that puts the pc totally open to the internet.
[13:43] <kLoNeD> i dont see what ive missed tho, i just put cd in installed ubuntu and then pc restarted thats all ive dne
[13:43] <coz_> nic1,   xmonad  is a tiling window manager
[13:43] <nic1> how about awesome wm then? i am asked to use one of awesome or i3
[13:43] <baker`> hello, does anyone know how much RAM ubuntu uses in comparison to say.. vista?
[13:43] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  so you did not go to the router configs pages and set up port forwarding then?
[13:43] <rd1381> nic1: oh its tiling now , isit? no as i said i am a kde user
[13:43] <kLoNeD> i have done this via routerlogin.net
[13:43] <coz_> nic1,  there is also scrotwm
[13:44] <nic1> coz_, i started using xmonad, it's too easy to install, but difficult to make it up i think..tried for few days but couldn't make it up and working fully
[13:44] <Dr_Willis> No idea what routerlogin.net is.. I use my routers  ip ofhttp:// <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:44] <nic1> scrotwm? i dint hear of this
[13:44] <kLoNeD> if i gave you my internet ip, username and password, you would be able to connect to my machine
[13:44] <coz_> nic1,   ah  ok   I know there is an irc channel for that and a fellow named  amphi  I would talk to if you want to try again
[13:44] <baker`>  hello, does anyone know how much RAM ubuntu uses in comparison to say.. vista?
[13:44] <nic1> kde is kewl desktop...
[13:45] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  it would connect to the router.. and the router would forward traffic based on the port's to  whatever machine they are set to be forwareded to.
[13:45] <coz_> nic1,  kde is kool  but it is system resource intensive at this stage
[13:45] <n8tuser> kLoNeD-> usually the router in front is your your gateway and same address for web configurable settings, so to find out your gateway, type   netstat -n in a terminal
[13:45] <nic1> coz_, right now i am running i3, i wil definitely try out xmonad, if you can guide me a bit
[13:45] <C-S-B> obiwan_: so having luck with b43?
[13:45] <n8tuser> kLoNeD-> rather netstat -ran
[13:45] <nic1> coz_, oh..ok. i wasn't aware that it's sys resource intensive
[13:45] <coz_> nic1,  I am not the one to gude you:)... amphi tried to get me to switch to that  instead of compiz but I cant :)
[13:46] <nic1> so i think i can do tiling even with compiz right?
[13:46] <coz_> nic1,   there is no issue in trying kde of course...
[13:46] <kLoNeD> n8tuser http://paste.ubuntu.com/292342/
[13:46] <nic1> but i need the light weight wm
[13:46] <kLoNeD> that is my reply
[13:46] <Subdolus> why is rsync so slow
[13:46] <n8tuser> baker`->  ubuntu can run in a small ram memory like 256Meg
[13:47] <Subdolus> does it have to build the file list every time I run it?
[13:47] <nic1> coz_, my application demands a light weight window manager
[13:47] <Subdolus> it's been going for about 6 hours
[13:47] <kLoNeD> what do i do now?
[13:47] <coz_> nic1,   well some tiling can be done  maybe with the grid plugin and others  but not as well as  the tiling window mangers
[13:47] <n8tuser> kLoNeD-> on your browser type  <IP_ADDRESS> and configure your router accordingly
[13:48] <rd1381> nic1: gnome is not that resource hungry
[13:48] <coz_> nic1,  however for xmonad  just join the #xmonad channel for help... I dont see amphi there right now  but he may show up
[13:48] <obiwan_> C-S-B,  heeh i was waiting for you to answer  but i didn't put your name so i guess you lost it hehe . Anyway my question is, does the firmware have anything to do with the driver? i can't find the b43 driver, but i have the wl one, can i extract the firmware for it to use it with b43 or that won't work?
[13:49] <kLoNeD> n8tuser i believe i have done so http://paste.ubuntu.com/292343/
[13:49] <kLoNeD> this is all the forwarded ports i have made to my machine http://paste.ubuntu.com/292343/
[13:49] <C-S-B> b43 is probably already on your system
[13:49] <C-S-B> obiwan_: ^
[13:50] <n8tuser> kLoNeD-> what the heck is that? please configure your router correctly,  whats the brand and model of the soho router?
[13:50] <C-S-B> obiwan_: you just need the firmware files to make it work
[13:50] <C-S-B> obiwan_: sudo apt-get fwcutter
[13:50] <kLoNeD> its not configured properly
[13:50] <kLoNeD> ill just find out
[13:50] <veggteppe> Anyone that can tell me how to navigate to sertain application's ? were it is in the filesystem i mean.
[13:50] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  i dont see the PORT that cpanel uses mentioned in your  'list of things forwarded to <IP_ADDRESS>'
[13:50] <obiwan_> yeah it is  cause modprobe b43 works and it gets shown in lsmod, but 43-fwcutter --list is supposed to get me a list of available modules, and b43 is not in that list, it's just wl things
[13:50] <obiwan_> C-S-B,
[13:51] <C-S-B> obiwan_: sudo apt-get b43-fwcutter
[13:51] <obiwan_> it's already installed hehe
[13:51] <C-S-B> obiwan_: you need to rmmod wl
[13:51] <Dr_Willis> Cpanel uses port 2083 with https and port 2082 with http.  ( from the docs i just read)
[13:51] <kLoNeD> netgear router wgr614v9
[13:51] <jrib> veggteppe: why?
[13:52] <tonyyarusso> veggteppe: what are you actually trying to do?
[13:52] <kLoNeD> what else do i have to configure in my router?
[13:52] <jrib> !away > watcher|away
[13:52] <n8tuser> kLoNeD-> look for DMZ
[13:52] <n8tuser> !who | kLoNeD
[13:52] <veggteppe> tonyyarusso: Just gonna add something to startup applications, and for that i need the complete line to were the applications i want to startup is located:P. wich i am trying to find out xD
[13:53] <soreau> ! work | coz_
[13:53] <obiwan_> i got this driver: b43		module: wl_apsta.o,  b43		wl_apsta_mimo.o and b43		wl_apsta_mimo.o, each one with a microcode and a ID FW10, FW11, FW11, FW13 C-S-B
[13:53] <kLoNeD> n8tuser DMZ in my router?
[13:53] <jrib> veggteppe: you don't really need the absolute path, you can just use "gedit" to start gedit for example, but most of them reside in /usr/bin
[13:53] <tonyyarusso> veggteppe: ah, ok.  The easiest way I find is 'dpkg -L packagename | grep bin'.
[13:53] <n8tuser> kLoNeD-> yep
[13:53] <obiwan_> mimo is N i think
[13:53] <veggteppe> jrib - tonyyarusso: THanks:)
[13:53] <tonyyarusso> veggteppe: also, what jrib said should be correct
[13:53] <obiwan_> it's the multiple input multiple output standard
[13:53] <kLoNeD> n8tuser any idea where it would be?
[13:54] <C-S-B> obiwan_: ok, and you should have a b43 folder in /lib/firmware
[13:54] <C-S-B> ?
[13:55] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  i normally download the user manuals (in pdf) and use the search feature  to find stuff like that.
[13:55] <C-S-B> obiwan_: you need to rmmod wl && modprobe b43
[13:55] <veggteppe> Tonyarusso: Loved your way tbh, like to get more "into" ubuntu, by learning the commands, so keep em commin xD
[13:55] <n8tuser> kLoNeD -> you may need to learn how to use google.. but here is one i found http://kbserver.netgear.com/kb_web_files/n101145.asp
[13:55] <obiwan_> ok i'll try hehe
[13:55] <obiwan_> i i get disconnected, pray for my soul haha
[13:55] <kLoNeD> n8tuser Dr_Willis i found the DMZ
[13:55] <kLoNeD> Default DMZ Server and then it asks for an ip adress
[13:55] <kLoNeD> address*
[13:55] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  so you put that box in the DMZ and it will be totally open to the internet.. that can be big time security  problems.
[13:56] <C-S-B> dmz is scary :O
[13:56] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  so you may want to learn how to use firewalls, and logging, and other stuff...
[13:56] <C-S-B> make it stop :'(
[13:56] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  or learn to properly forward the ACTUAL PORTS that cpanel uses instead...
[13:56] <obiwan_> ok , brb C-S-B , let's hope ;(
[13:56] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD: Cpanel uses port 2083 with https and port 2082 with http.  ( from the docs i just read)
[13:57] <kLoNeD> yes, cpanel users 2086 2087 2082 and 2083 Dr_Willis
[13:57] <kLoNeD> ill do that once i have this configured
[13:57] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  my router lets me forward a range to other machines.. that makes it easier.
[13:57] <deepak> hi
[13:57] <phoe6> Is it a fair assumption that all fonts in my default ubuntu install are re-distributable under a FSF or OSS licence?
[13:58] <Dr_Willis> phoe6:  i whoudl think so.
[13:58] <deepak> hii
[13:58] <nic1> rd1381, coz_, my git command worked without errors
[13:58] <deepak> evry one
[13:58] <jrib> phoe6: I would check the source package to be sure.
[13:58] <phoe6> the fonts directory does not have LICENSE file. that's why.
[13:58] <coz_> nic1,  mm let me try it here
[13:58] <phoe6> oh okay.
[13:58] <phoe6> yes deepak
[13:58] <jrib> !source > phoe6
[13:59] <coz_> nic1,  still not workin ghere :)
[13:59] <nic1> i think mine was also not working
[13:59] <phoe6> jrib: thanks!
[13:59] <kLoNeD> Dr_Willis ill read this guide about it and see what it says
[13:59] <nic1> one thing i can't understand now, is it wise to opt for i3?
[13:59] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  reading docs is good. :)
[13:59] <nic1> i just need one highly customizable, less sys resource hungry tiling wm
[14:00] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  at least now you are heading the right direction.
[14:00] <coz_> nic1,  yeah I cant help with that one... I have to stick to compiz :)
[14:00] <kLoNeD> Dr_Willis thank you
[14:00] <nic1> but compiz is a system resource intensiv right?
[14:00] <coz_> nic1,  no not really
[14:01] <coz_> nic1,  it is fairly gentle on the system and I have a mid range  older system right now
[14:03] <Guest9783> rvsjoen: how can I add users in pgadmin so that tI can login to the spesific database?
[14:04] <johntron> what can I use to do packet prioritization on ubuntu? I've tried searching and can't find anything
[14:04] <kLoNeD> right, i read that guide you gave me, but nothing there does it say about DMZ
[14:05] <coz_> johntron,   here is one link   http://www.instructables.com/id/E3AW18NRPEEPLK0FZH/

[14:05] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  it wouldbe best to fprwared only the ports you need forwarded
[14:05] <johntron> i dunno of an alternative for altq though
[14:05] <coz_> johntron,   lol oh sorry
[14:06] <Guest084> hey its kloned i got d/c
[14:06] <Dr_Willis> kLoNeD:  it wouldbe best to fprwared only the ports you need forwarded

[14:09] <Enissay> JohnD23, i saw that netbeans is good too, but isnt for java anly?
[14:09] <gravityreloaded> *the file is on an external drive of course
[14:10] <Enissay> *JohnD23, i saw that netbeans is good too, but isnt it  for java only?
[14:10] <chippy> hi, using UNR & laptop keyboard and 9.04 with external keyboard. How can I get the menu key (next to r-ctrl & r-alt) to do as advertised, open context menu (like shift-f10) ?
[14:10] <johntron> Enissay: netbeans is java only, but eclipse can do both
[14:11] <johntron> (assuming you meant that comment for me)
[14:11] <qnet08> HALO..
[14:11] <gravityreloaded> I used ImageDrive XML to make hard drive clone but can't find equivalent software for Ubuntu. Any suggestions?
[14:11] <NantoRokuseiken> hi. i installed kde, i didnt like it so i removed it.i have several problems right now. how can i bring my machine to a previous state?
[14:11] <gravityreloaded> !xml
[14:11] <bazhang> NantoRokuseiken, removed how
[14:12] <NantoRokuseiken> bazhang: using synaptic
[14:12] <bazhang> NantoRokuseiken, which packages
[14:12] <gravityreloaded> anyone here understand XML files?
, coz_ , <ActionParsnip>, thanks guys :)
[14:12] <gui____> hi
[14:12] <coz_> Enissay,  no problem
[14:12] <coz_> gravityreloaded,  what is it you need to do with that xml file again?
[14:13] <NantoRokuseiken> bazhang: kde, kde-core and few i cant remember
[14:13] <gravityreloaded> I need to restore XML, on external drive, to my C: drive. I'm now running Ubuntu from D: drive
[14:13] <rafael> Hi, although my HISTSIZE and HISTFILESIZE are both set to<PHONE_NUMBER> (I modified bashrc). I only have a 500 length history. anyone knows why
[14:13] <bazhang> NantoRokuseiken, you wish for pure gnome?
[14:13] <NantoRokuseiken> bazhang: it doesnt load the appled on the upper right of screen and when i press reload it cant reload it
[14:14] <coz_> gravityreloaded,  does this file just need to be copied to the C drive?
[14:14] <NantoRokuseiken> bazhang: yes as ubuntu comes without any other crap
[14:14] <joaopinto> rafael, have you checked that they are both defined on the "env" ?
[14:14] <jrib> rafael: you need to restart your shell for the setting to take effect
[14:14] <bazhang> !puregnome | NantoRokuseiken
[14:14] <NantoRokuseiken> bazhang: and gdm running because i get a welcome screen to login although i was autologin before
[14:14] <rafael> joaopinto: I echo them and I get 100000 and I have also restarted..
[14:14] <gravityreloaded> no, I want to restore the contents, it has a full Windows installation on it, should restore drive to the time when I backed up
[14:14] <nic1> guys, i will use awesome wm
[14:14] <penthief> I have a cron script job which is a symlink in /etc/cron.hourly and it is not being run. Any ideas why?
[14:15] <nic1> it's there in synaptic, and i insstalled it too
[14:15] <nic1> but after installing, it hangs
[14:15] <gravityreloaded> coz, I re-installed windows but can't restore from file because I'm using C: drive...
[14:15] <coz_> gravityreloaded,   so this is a cloned image of your windows installation?
[14:15] <gravityreloaded> yes
[14:15] <rafael> echo $HISTSIZE and echo $HISTFILESIZE both gives me the value I wan[ t after I have restarted. Nevertheless, my history still go only up to 500 strings...
[14:15] <NantoRokuseiken> bazhang: kde so crappy. how did kde become like tis
[14:15] <coz_> gravityreloaded,  and how did you first create this clone?
[14:15] <simon_1> hi there is there a command i can type to check if my ubuntu is 64bit or 32bit cus its bit buggy think i may have got the wrong version when i installed
[14:15] <gravityreloaded> I used ImageDrive XML
[14:16] <coz_> gravityreloaded,  and doesnt that application have  options for restoring to the drive?
[14:16] <rafael> I have added the export lines to .bashrc in my home fodler
[14:16] <rafael> simon_1: uname -a
[14:16] <jrib> rafael: did you exit bash after running more than 500 commands and then check the file?
[14:16] <orkyahaalhai> how to disable sudo ????
[14:16] <gravityreloaded> coz, yes, but because I'm running Windows from same drive I can't restore to it. I hoped to do that from Ubuntu with equivalent program
[14:17] <coz_> orkyahaalhai,  disable it? why?
[14:17] <joaopinto> !sudo | orkyahaalhai
[14:17] <gravityreloaded> coz, Ubuntu is on drive D:
[14:17] <simon_1> Linux ubuntu 2.6.28-15-generic #52-Ubuntu SMP Wed Sep 9 10:49:34 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
[14:17] <simon_1> is that 64 bit
[14:17] <chippy> hi, using UNR & laptop keyboard and 9.04 with external keyboard. How can I get the menu key (next to r-ctrl & r-alt) to do as advertised, open context menu (like shift-f10) ? Is this a bug?
[14:17] <elad`> I'm playing a video, and I see tearing - a line separating different parts of the screen that get updated at different times. How do I fix that?
[14:17] <penthief> rafael: Just an idea, but maybe those variables are checked before they are exported by your .bashrc
[14:17] <rafael> jrib: I just closed my terminal and reopened it. I have 507 commands. I think it resets to 500 when I reset my system
[14:17] <rafael> penthief: I am thinking that also
[14:17] <jrib> rafael: you checked what your HISTFILE was set to?
[14:18] <coz_> gravityreloaded,  then I am not sure what to tell you...I am not familiar with that cloneing software
[14:18] <gravityreloaded> I really do like Ubuntu but there are some things that can only be done with Windows
[14:18] <simon_1> rafael is that 64bit i post the result there a few secs ago
[14:18] <jrib> gravityreloaded: like?
[14:18] <joaopinto> gravityreloaded, which is not the case for what you are describing, you can easily backup a partition with partimage
[14:18] <obiwan_> Hi i'm back with bad news C-S-B_ :/
[14:18] <gravityreloaded> coz, that software says it's compatible with other cloning software, i.e., the XML file I created
[14:19] <IpSe_DiXiT> hi, an external hard drive i was using till yesterday now its not recognized anymore, it doesnt see it at all, what happened?
[14:19] <rafael> simon1? no
[14:19] <joaopinto> gravityreloaded, that software maybe compatible with other COMERCIAL software, which doesn't turn into an open standard
[14:19] <gravityreloaded> joaopinto I HAVE the backup, I need to restore it
[14:19] <bobbob1016> For some reason, my password isn't being accepted when I try to launch synaptic via gui, but it works fine if I launch it via commandline.  Any ideas?
[14:19] <simon_1> rafael is it def. 32bit so if thats my kernel version
[14:19] <rafael> simon_1: You should have got x86_64 not i686 for 64 bits
[14:20] <rafael> jrib: echo $HISTSIZE gioves me 100000000
[14:20] <simon_1> ah right
[14:20] <C-S-B_> obiwan_: well? is it on fire?
[14:20] <joaopinto> gravityreloaded, so just ask the software authors to port their software to linux, please do not attribute the fault to Ubuntu :)
[14:20] <simon_1> cheers mate
[14:20] <gravityreloaded> jrib, I can't for example do djing decently on Linux system. I use virtual DJ
[14:20] <elad`> I'm playing a video, and I see tearing - a line separating different parts of the screen that get updated at different times. How do I fix that?
[14:20] <jrib> rafael: file, not size
[14:21] <simon_1> cant get skype to work on 9.04 thought it might be because it was 64bit but not the case
[14:21] <rafael> simon_1? Yes, your kernel defines your architecture
[14:21] <Keiffer> how can i check the HDD for bad sectors?
[14:21] <jrib> rafael: also, did you try a smaller number like 1000 to see if it makes a difference?
[14:21] <joaopinto> simon, skype works fine on 64bits using the 32bits deb
[14:21] <Keiffer> I get this error when playing some .avi files in Mplayer. An Error Occured. Could not read from source
[14:21] <AncientSocrates> hi when ubuntu 9.10 boots up it says before the [0K]s appear. acpi resource error, acpi conflicts with acpi rprg
[14:21] <AncientSocrates> something like this
[14:21] <rafael> jrib: also echo $HISTFILESIZE also gives me<PHONE_NUMBER>0
[14:21] <AncientSocrates> what should i do
[14:21] <rafael> jrib: Gonna try it
[14:21] <gravityreloaded> So, Ubuntu is incapable to restore backup from XML file as far as anyone knows,,, ???
[14:21] <mnaines> gravityreloaded: Have you tried Mixxx and DJPlay?
[14:21] <bazhang> #ubuntu+1 for karmic AncientSocrates
[14:21] <jrib> rafael: file, not filesize
[14:21] <simon_1> not on my fresh instal of 32bit 9.04
[14:21] <rafael> jrib: How can I check that
[14:21] <penthief> rafael: Just had a look: Try at the top of .profile instead of bashrc
[14:22] <rafael> penthief: Ok, gonna do that
[14:22] <simon_1> freezes my entire system
[14:22] <jrib> rafael: the same way you are checking the others, echo $HISTFILE
[14:22] <gravityreloaded> mnaines, they don't have anywhere near the features I need and they are very buggy
[14:22] <joaopinto> gravityreloaded, let me repeat, there is no standard format for disk images using XML, your question is nout about ubuntu, is how to restore XML files geneated by a specific disk cloning app
[14:22] <Xcell> exactly
[14:22] <simon_1> will try again in 2 weeks i guess with 9.10 maybe skype will work with that for me
[14:22] <rafael> jrib: echo $HISTFILE returns me the path to my file, home/.bash_history
[14:23] <jrib> rafael: k
[14:23] <jrib> rafael: you're paraphrasing I hope?  That wasn't the actual path it gave?
[14:23] <joaopinto> gravityreloaded, coudl you elaborate on that ? which bug and which missing feature is blocking use from using partimage ?
[14:23] <rafael> penthief: I have no .profile file in my home fodler. Should I create one?
[14:23] <penthief> Yeah, I have one
[14:24] <gravityreloaded> joaopinto can partimage recover an XML file?
[14:24] <simon_1> is 9.10 going to be a better long term supported version or whatever you call those versions??
[14:24] <Dr_Willis> !lts
[14:24] <gravityreloaded> *from an XML file
[14:24] <jrib> gravityreloaded: why don't you just use the software you used to backup to recover?
[14:24] <simon_1> ah right
[14:24] <penthief> rafael: See the INVOCATION section of man bash for more info. I must admit I have not read it myself.
[14:24] <gravityreloaded> because I'm logged into Windows which is on the same drive I want to restore to...
[14:25] <joaopinto> gravityreloaded, no, it does not support non standard images generated by random clone imaging products
[14:25] <Faithful> Hey, can someone help... I have a linux box I'm shelled into but it seems that / is not mounted, well when I look at what's mounted I don't see / mounted and when I run df on the partition / is on I gives me tmpfs mounted on /dev
[14:25] <rafael> jrib: Yes, it gave me /home/rc/.bash_history
[14:25] <jrib> rafael: k
[14:25] <AncientSocrates> acpi conflicts with acpi smrg during boot
[14:25] <AncientSocrates> what should i do?
[14:25] <sipior> gravityreloaded: xml is a file format. it'd be like asking "can ubuntu recover from an html file?" what did you use to write the backup file?
[14:25] <bazhang> AncientSocrates, this is not the karmic support channel ; #ubuntu+1
[14:25] <rafael> jrib: Lets see if a smaller value will solve this. Also gonna try to add the exports to .profile as pent suggested
[14:25] <inversio1s> gravityreloaded: if you need to restore driveimage xml image you might want to do it from a windows live cd, such as bartPE or hirens boot cd which inculdes drive image xml i believe
[14:25] <simon_1> is it possible to back up the terminal history when upgrading
[14:25] <gravityreloaded> I suppose the only chance is to install Windows on different hard drive, and restore to my drive C: from there
[14:25] <rafael> jrib: Thanks...
[14:25] <rafael> penthief: thanks
[14:26] <Dr_Willis> simon_1:  the bash history is saved in .history
[14:26] <nic1> hey i am trying to get source using apt-get source, how serious is the error or warning whatever, can't check public signature
[14:26] <Dr_Willis> simon_1:  i think.. let me check. :)
[14:26] <Dr_Willis> simon_1:  or use history > myhistory.txt
[14:26] <Dr_Willis> aha its .bash_history
[14:26] <simon_1> cheers dr_willis so just copy and replace on new version
[14:27] <Dr_Willis> simon_1:   the history file is normally not worth worrying about. :)
[14:27] <sipior> nic1: depends on how concerned you are about establishing the authenticity of the software you want to install.
[14:27] <chippy> is it possible to reset keyboard shortcuts in 9.04 ?
[14:27] <Dr_Willis> simon_1:  since each shell can change it.. it can be in quiet a state of flux
[14:27] <gravityreloaded> I hoped it would be more simple, since I am running Ubuntu on my 2nd hard drive, It would be a shame to uninstall that to install windows, the restore, then re-install ubuntu. It a lot of work, as you all can see
[14:27] <gravityreloaded> the must be an easier way
[14:27] <gravityreloaded> *there
[14:27] <simon_1> handy to have all the commands i use on file
[14:28] <sipior> gravityreloaded: you don't have access to a second windows machine, i imagine
[14:28] <gravityreloaded> sipior, no
[14:28] <Dr_Willis> simon_1:  that file can get overwritten at any time.
[14:28] <jrib> gravityreloaded: if you're using some proprietary backup system without a linux version, then you can't hope to restore on linux.  You should checkout partimage...
[14:29] <sipior> gravityreloaded: you can try running windows in virtualbox, kvm or the like. unraveling the backup will be slow, but manageable.
[14:29] <simon_1> im sure a few people like me with bad memories like to keep the history somehow
[14:29] <nic1> in which path do i get the source code, when i do apt-get source?
[14:29] <Dr_Willis> simon_1:  if you have 2 terminals open and do different commands in each one.. then close each one.. which one save4s the history? :)
[14:29] <gravityreloaded> sipior, I could try that, thanks for suggestion
[14:29] <Pici> nic1: the current directory
[14:29] <penthief> rafael: I might do this unlimited history myself...
[14:30] <Dr_Willis> simon_1:  dont depend on anything in  the history 'staying' there
[14:30] <simon_1> lol i guess
[14:30] <simon_1> might make a txt file of the ones i use lots
[14:31] <porpoise> Hey, I want to move my /var directory to a different partition. Do I need to boot in a special mode to do this?
[14:31] <porpoise> or can I change my runlevel
[14:31] <iceroot> i have PC A and B. A is behind a firewall and can ssh to B. B cant ssh to A because of the firewall. But is it possible to use the ssh-connection from A-B so that B can access A?
[14:31] <Dr_Willis> simon_1:  in fact as each shell closes it writes to the .bash_history so whatever shell closes last gets 'saved'
[14:31] <penthief> It would be nice if there was a special tab-completion which used the history.
[14:32] <simon_1> is the version of ubuntu that installs inside windows exactly the same other than not being on its own actual partition
[14:32] <penthief> shopt -s histappend # append to the history file, don't overwrite it
[14:32] <madsj> hi; how can I get ubuntu to suspend when I close the lid on my notebook ? I use Openbox as a WM, and thus cannot rely on Gnome for doing this
[14:32] <porpoise> iceroot: I think it is, by creating a tunnel for port forwarding
[14:32] <tonyyarusso> iceroot: sort of.  There's what's called a reverse connection, where basically A access B to say "hey, here's a connection you can use if you want it!" and B can say "oh sweet, I think I will"
[14:32] <jrib> madsj: easiest way is to just use gnome-power-manager
[14:33] <iceroot> tonyyarusso: s i can type ssh A on PC B? after SSH B from pc A?
[14:33] <madsj> jrib: no other fun way using configuration files ? :-)
[14:33] <tonyyarusso> iceroot: I'll try to find the explanation of how - hang on
[14:33] <jrib> madsj: well sure you can emulate whatever gnome-power-manager does, but why would you...  I don't know how offhand
[14:34] <sipior> iceroot: have a look at the "-R" switch in the ssh man page
[14:35] <tonyyarusso> iceroot: here's one example: http://www.howtoforge.com/reverse-ssh-tunneling
[14:36] <mnaines> Is Jaunty GTK 1.0 or GTK 2.0?
[14:36] <sipior> mnaines: gtk 2
[14:36] <sipior> mnaines: (gtk 1 is very, very old)
[14:37] <mnaines> sipior: Thanks
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[14:38] <Travis-42> is there a way with apt-get to show the changelog for everything that is going to be upgraded?
[14:38] <tonyyarusso> Travis-42: yes; it's in a separate package.
[14:38] <tonyyarusso> Travis-42: apt-listchanges
[14:39] <rags> which will be a good packet generator in ubuntu?
[14:39] <Travis-42> tonyyarusso: thanks!
[14:39] <iceroot> sipior: tonyyarusso thx, i will try that
[14:39] <rags> mostly for educational purposes and maybe n/w trouble shooting..any recommendations?
[14:40] <plitter> is there a way of leaving a message for a guy that is not online?
[14:40] <Dr_Willis>  - /msg memoserv help    plitter
[14:40] <tonyyarusso> plitter: memoserv
[14:40] <community> hi geek ubuntu
[14:40] <sipior> rags: try hping
[14:40] <plitter> -/msg memoserv help
[14:41] <Dr_Willis>   --->   /msg memoserv plitter  send  yes there is
[14:41] <chippy> hi, how can i set the menu key to open context menus?
[14:41] <plitter> Dr_Willis: thanks:)
[14:42] <plitter> is there a way of checking if the guy i want to send to is a registered user?
[14:42] <rags> sipior: k thx...will try tht...it's hping2 now
[14:42] <Dr_Willis> plitter:  try sending him a memo and see i guess
[14:42] <Pici> plitter: /msg nickserv info username   irc questions really belong in #freenode though
[14:44] <sPiNe> okay spine is here
[14:46] <plitter> is there a way to burn ubuntu to a dvd instead of a cd?
[14:47] <bazhang> plitter, certainly
[14:47] <plitter> i dont have any cds left....
[14:47] <plitter> bazhang: do u know the way?
[14:47] <bazhang> there is also unetbootin for flash keys plitter
[14:47] <Guest9783> How can I add users in pgadmin so that I can login to the spesific database? Do i have to do it from terminal or in GUI pgadmin?
[14:47] <cheng> everytime i install a package there this line that appears in the end "E: Directory '/var/log/apt/' missing".
[14:48] <plitter> bazhang: doesnt that use the whole flash key?
[14:48] <cheng> is there any impact to my system how can i resolve this. Thankss
[14:48] <sipior> cheng: and...is it?
[14:48] <bazhang> plitter, it will format the key yes
[14:48] <cheng> @sipior yes sir
[14:49] <sipior> cheng: just recreate the directory with a "sudo mkdir"
[14:49] <notk0> http://www.getonmyhorse.com/
[14:49] <bazhang> notk0, dont spam here
[14:49] <plitter> bazhang: but will the rest of the space be usable?
[14:49] <notk0> it is not spam
[14:49] <alazyworkaholic> How can I get all the files in a deep directory structure (e.g. folder for each year, month, week, day, hour...) to move to one folder?
[14:49] <cheng> @sipior thanks very much
[14:49] <plitter> bazhang: when i the cd there?
[14:49] <notk0> alazyworkagohil move all the files inside a deep directory to the same folder?
[14:50] <notk0> alazyalcohilic move all the files inside a deep directory to the same folder?
[14:50] <jacquesdupontd> hi everyone
[14:50] <notk0> hello
[14:50] <jacquesdupontd> im asking my self something
[14:51] <Marukaz> I have just install program 'xmacro' from synaptec. How can i run it?
[14:51] <bazhang> plitter, not clear as to your meaning; is the cd where
[14:51] <notk0> ok
[14:51] <sipior> jacquesdupontd: you've lost your inner monologue?
[14:51] <notk0> Marukaz open the terminal and type xmacro
[14:51] <jacquesdupontd> if i copy all directory of my "/" partition on a dvd and one day on the same computer with another hard disk i copy it just after a format from the live cd will it work just like now ?
[14:51] <jacquesdupontd> sipior :)
[14:51] <notk0> no
[14:52] <Dr_Willis> alazyworkaholic:   checn the -R optio (or was it -r) to mv
[14:52] <jacquesdupontd> i know the grub
[14:52] <Marukaz> notk0 it doesn't work...
[14:52] <alazyworkaholic> notk0: yes, I want to take all the files in many folders (that get deeper, i.e. more detail at each level) & put them together in one folder.
[14:52] <jacquesdupontd> but except that
[14:52] <jacquesdupontd> hi btw sipior
[14:52] <penthief> alazyworkaholic: Untested, but 'find sourcedir -type f -exec mv {} targetdir \;'
[14:52] <notk0> alazyworkagolic it shoud be possible to do it with find and some pipes to mv
[14:52] <notk0> but I would recommend to make a script in python
[14:53] <jacquesdupontd> sipior, do you have 5 minutes to talk about something ?
[14:53] <alazyworkaholic> Dr_Willis: man mv doesn't show an r or R option. by the way, thanks for the yes command tip. It worked.
[14:53] <hoangtung> kfjkd
[14:54] <sipior> acquesdupontd: busy at the moment. what topic would you suggest?
[14:54] <roger_padactor> trying to connect to samba server it logs me in but then it just logs me out and im not left with smb: \>  anyone know why
[14:55] <jacquesdupontd> sipior, making my own distrib of a modified ubuntu for my own computers
[14:55] <alazyworkaholic> penthief: find ~/Photos/* -type f -exec mv {} ~/Desktop/collected        ???
[14:56] <penthief> alazyworkaholic: I always stick an 'echo' before the exec before running it properly to make sure I am not doing any thing stupid, but that's just me.
[14:56] <Joelio> Hi guys, I need to be able to set the permissions and ownership of a usb printer to be www-data (to allow writing via http) every time it connects. I'm afraid my udev knowledge is lacking
[14:56] <alazyworkaholic> I thought linux would have an easy way to throw out directories while keeping the files.
[14:56] <Marukaz> I have just install program 'xmacro' from synaptec. But i can't find it. What shoud i do?
[14:57] <penthief> alazyworkaholic: You are missing the string "\;" (without the quotes)
[14:57] <War> hello, im having some issues installing microsoft office thru wine, is it even possible? or am i doing something wrong?
[14:57] <penthief> alazyworkaholic: This is a terminator to the exec flag.
[14:57] <mnaines> War, why do you need Microsoft Office?  Just use Openoffice.org
[14:57] <Pici> War: Wine support is in #winehq also /msg ubottu appdb
[14:58] <alazyworkaholic> penthief: I know nil about strings. Do it the hard way then?
[14:58] <penthief> alazyworkaholic: No, never the hard way!
[14:58] <sipior> jacquesdupontd: heh, that's easy: don't bother. you can use aptitude to generate a list of installed packages for easy cloning, and ensure that /etc is backed up so that configuration files are easily recoverable.
[14:58] <penthief> alazyworkaholic: find ~/Photos -type f -exec mv {} ~/Desktop/collected \;
[14:59] <penthief> alazyworkaholic: So, 2 changes
[14:59] <rjune_> alazyworkaholic: what he said.
[14:59] <jacquesdupontd> sipior, understood but could i make an distrib installation software on a dvd that would install everything and maybe ask you options if you want this package or not to be installed like a flash plugin for example.
[15:00] <jacquesdupontd> exemple
[15:00] <Travis-42> So I'm trying to use apt-listchanges, but I'm not figuring out how to get apt-get to use it. is there something special I need to do?
[15:00] <Pici> Travis-42: You may need to do sudo dpkg-reconfigure apt-listchanges first
[15:01] <jacquesdupontd> sipior, so that it could make the mbr at the same time like when you install ubuntu, in fact a sort of personal ubuntu with all i need and possibility to put or not the packages i have choosen for having the choice
[15:01] <alazyworkaholic> penthief: Thanks, that worked! Learning basic scripting & strings etc. is on my todo list.
[15:01] <Travis-42> Pici: I've tried that. It doesn't ask anything about apt, should it?
[15:02] <sipior> jacquesdupontd: sure, i'm fairly certain there is information about customised ubuntu installs on the ubuntu community documentation site.
[15:02] <Pici> Travis-42: It should present you with options as to when you want to see the changes and what pager if any you want to use
[15:03] <rohdef> is there a central certificate handler for Ubuntu, so I have a central place, to place my digital signature (not GPG)?
[15:04] <jacquesdupontd> sipior, ok, so it seems to be easy from what you say gonna check that later, thx man.
[15:04] <buday> üdvözlet
[15:05] <CHESLYN> hi guys
[15:05] <penthief> jacquesdupontd: Look up puppet configuration management. This might be a better solution.
[15:05] <j1mp492> Command to install adobe flash player?!
[15:05] <j1mp492> to firefox
[15:05] <CHESLYN> anyone how do you install linux on a PS
[15:05] <buday> asdf
[15:06] <Travis-42> Pici: yea I guess it does that.  apt-get should just display the changelog when I do "apt-get upgrade" ?
[15:06] <CHESLYN> or are you able
[15:06] <salih> j1mp492, your system 64bit?
