[21:41] <echo_mirage> i installed xubuntu on a 4 year old notebook. the hardware was detected correctly. i can connect to my WLAN. but although the connection appears to be established, sometimes i can not interact with the internet. what might be wrong here? it says 80% connectivity.
[21:41] <ActionParsnip> ortsvorsteher: once installed, untar to some place and copy over the folders you need, make sure the tar alos contains the hiddent folders
[21:41] <ActionParsnip> echo_mirage: can you ping web names? can you ping web ips?
[21:42] <echo_mirage> ActionParsnip, no i get timeouts. i need to reboot then.
[21:42] <ortsvorsteher> ActionParsnip: so i will do that :)
[21:42] <ortsvorsteher> !cookie > ActionParsnip
[21:42] <ortsvorsteher> ;)
[21:42] <ActionParsnip> ortsvorsteher: np man, backups are good
[21:42] <ortsvorsteher> ActionParsnip: but where are the mails stored from the user?
[21:43] <ZykoticK9> echo_mirage, you need to have a look at what the tcp network is doing.  In a terminal use "ifconfig", to find out what your IP address is, and try pinging something on the internet to see if you have DNS etc.
[21:43] <ActionParsnip> ortsvorsteher: depends on the app you use
[21:43] <ortsvorsteher> ActionParsnip: evolution
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> ortsvorsteher: ok then you need to research where evolution hides its email storage and make sure you get those on the stick
[21:44]  * ortsvorsteher is going for search mails ;)
[21:44] <echo_mirage> ZykoticK9, ok i will try this. i have to review this system tomorrow and i am afraid i wont find the problem. what is the most probable reason?
[21:44] <`Borg`> I have a friend who's using the latest ubuntu on a packard bell TM2 and he's from denmark using a denmark keyboard layout, but he can't get all his 3 symbols for his numbers working. is this just going to be a keymap change needed?
[21:44] <twolane> ortsvorsteher: evolution will backup and export all your email, accounts etc to a tar.gz file
[21:45] <ortsvorsteher> twolane: how to do that?
[21:45] <ZykoticK9> echo_mirage, there is NO way to know.  Best of luck.
[21:45] <WBL_O_O> anyone have the sierra wireless 598 working under 7.10 2.6.22-16-generic?
[21:45] <echo_mirage> ZykoticK9, i guessed so. my first guess was that the driver for the wlan adapter does not fit exactely. but i wont be able to fix that. =/
[21:46] <echo_mirage> thank you anyway
[21:46] <margaret> where are the mozilla plugins kept? eg. mozilla mplayer
[21:46] <almansoori> hi
[21:46] <twolane> ortsvorsteher: edit - backup
[21:47] <ZykoticK9> echo_mirage, if you have wireless connection at 80%, if you don't have DHCP working, or a valid IP address you would still not be able to surf the web.  suggests a networking problem vs a wireless problem.
[21:47] <magnetron> WBL_O_O→ may i remind you that ubuntu 7.10 will go out of support within a month
[21:47] <echo_mirage> i see
[21:47] <twolane> ortsvorsteher: sorry, file menu, - backup
[21:47] <almansoori> how can i download i tune
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> WBL_O_O: is it pci or usb?
[21:48] <almansoori> for my ipod
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> !ipod | almansoori
[21:48] <WBL_O_O> ActionParsnip-  usb
[21:48] <unr3a1> Serraphyn, I installed both libcrypto packages from the synaptic package manager and I get the same error
[21:48] <ortsvorsteher> twolane: so i go searching for it, i have to translate it to german ;)

[22:08] <raindog> After reading about the newest Nvidia driver on Ubuntu Planet I installed it as per directions.  I've finally been able to get a working high-res x server running again and I have the previous driver installed, but glxinfo is giving me an error that indicates that I don't have direct rendering enabled.  Question, what am I missing?  Is there a kernel module that the newest driver built in that I still need to extract??
[22:08] <Serraphyn> kansan__: Sorry but I'm not sure I understand your last comment.
[22:09] <Kirill_> What should I use to copy a SATA drive mounted on /mnt/macosx to a USB external drive if I want an exact copy of the drive and its the exact same drive model

[22:09] <Joker_-_> raindog: search for "DRI" errors in your /var/log/Xorg.0.log

[22:10] <kansan__> Serraphyn, basically i want to restrict a particular user so that they can only changes files in a particular directory.  i'm going to do this by adding them to a group which is only applicable for that directory.  but when new files are created in this directory (or in a sub directory).
[22:10] <Serraphyn> unr3a1: did you read http://www.pokerth.net/index.php?option=com_fireboard&Itemid=85&func=view&catid=17&id=1910 ?
[22:10] <WatchBot> Serraphyn: Please keep your links on topic and work safe.
[22:11] <Serraphyn> kansan__: thats wasnt' what I asked though, my first question was are you going Linux share to a windows machine or windows share to a linux machine
[22:11] <Comrade-Sergei> Serraphyn, well im setting this up in a corporate enviroment would you say that would work?
[22:12] <Serraphyn> Comrade-Sergei: Thats where I use it
[22:12] <kansan__> Serraphyn, neither;  this only concerns ssh'd accounts
[22:12] <Serraphyn> personally in corp envo I love imap over pop3

[22:13] <Joker_-_> NoobBadEnglish: as previously said: you are pretty much doomed.
[22:13] <Serraphyn> kansan__: k, sorry nvm I guess I misunderstood your original issue.  Looked like you where trying to share files over a network to me
[22:13] <nmpribeiro> help please...
[22:13] <Joker_-_> NoobBadEnglish: the drive is probably dead / dying.
[22:13] <Comrade-Sergei> Serraphyn, what kinds of spam filtering does it have
[22:13] <Kirill_> erUSUL thank you, that's exactly what i needed!
[22:14] <Serraphyn> Comrade-Sergei: you'll ahve to install something like spamassassin for that
[22:14] <Guest71806> I'm getting some funny errors trying to install 8.04: they're like this.
[22:14] <Comrade-Sergei> Serraphyn, im just starting a new job and they say their current system leaves them inundated with spam and thay paya a fortune for it
[22:14] <erUSUL> Kirill_: no problem
[22:14] <Comrade-Sergei> Serraphyn, thats what the othe guy said, how does spamassassin work with keywords?
[22:14] <raindog> Joker_-_: No error in xorg.0.log.  Just noticed I can't enable desktop effects now either.  I think perhaps I will simply download a fresh copy of 9.04beta (running it now) and start over.  :(
[22:14] <NoobBadEnglish> magikid: thanks for last link. haven't tryed it. I'll try it right now
[22:15] <Serraphyn> !google spam assassin
[22:15] <Guest71806> I'm getting some funny errors trying to install 8.04: they're like this. Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block ###### and SQUASHFS error: sb_bread failed reading block 0x1c9c6
[22:15] <Serraphyn> bah
[22:15] <Guest71806> can anyone interpret them?
[22:15] <Serraphyn> Comrade-Sergei: I'd suggest looking at Spam Assassins homepage and reading the setup guides that are out there(many many out there)
[22:15] <Joker_-_> raindog: you could, but th eproblem shouldnt be that hard to solve. If you don't have anything to backup, re-install, but if you do, try to solve the problem... it could help you - or someone else - later :)
[22:15] <wolter> is anybody getting weird black rectangles on the gnome-panel notification area/tray ?

[22:16] <Serraphyn> I don't do abbervations well as I've had alot of jobs and everyplace seems to have their own abbervations.
[22:17] <Joker_-_> NoobBadEnglish: mine did when I lost 500gb of data after reading that message... Running a SMART test should tell you more about your drive's health...
[22:17] <Kirill_> erUSUL crap, I have an external hard drive with a sata cable slot on the back and i have a cable with the exact same ends on both sides. I'm trying to stick that into my motherboard and the end is supposed to be different for the sata
[22:17] <Kirill_> where do I stick this thing?!!
[22:17] <oCean_> Guest71806: sounds like the burn did not fully succeed. Burn at lower speed and also, make sure to md5sum of downloaded image before burning
[22:17] <NoobBadEnglish> magikid: no success even with -f in e2fsck. Same result: bad magic number...
[22:17] <nmpribeiro> someone help me?
[22:17] <magikid> NoobBadEnglish: sounds like it's fried
[22:17] <Joker_-_> raindog: so mainly, compiz isnt working (direct rendering problem, probably) and what else?
[22:18] <slade6051> Can anyone direct me to a rhythmbox channel?
[22:18] <Serraphyn> NoobBadEnglish: I had something similar happen to me, its not hard to fix but a pain.  But your gonna loose all data on that drive, boot win98, fdisk /mbr with only that drive and CDROM drive running
[22:18] <unr3a1> Serraphyn, I tried what that post suggested, and still nothing
[22:18] <NoobBadEnglish> Joker_-_: my drive is healthy... I sure...
[22:18] <Joker_-_> raindog: i'd say you're driver isnt loaded for some reason.
[22:19] <Serraphyn> unr3a1: you installed openssl?

[22:19] <Joker_-_> NoobBadEnglish: then something between the drive and the OS is not. Could be anything: cable, controller, driver, etc.
[22:20] <raed> haw are uoe
[22:20] <raed> wait
[22:20] <UX> hi
[22:20] <NoobBadEnglish> Serraphyn: yes. I see you post. I slow write|read in english. sorry
[22:20] <UX> can anybody help me around here?
[22:20] <raed> hi
[22:20] <Joker_-_> I'd check the cable just in case, I'd check for drivers, I'd google for someone having similar problem with similar hardware
[22:20] <nmpribeiro> is it supposed that mobprobe pciehp pciehp_force=1 freezes ubuntu?
[22:20] <Joker_-_> NoobBadEnglish: I'd check the cable just in case, I'd check for drivers, I'd google for someone having similar problem with similar hardware
[22:20] <Serraphyn> NoobBadEnglish: np hun, just didn't want you to miss it, I fixed 2 drives doing that
[22:20] <oCean_> UX: ask away. If someone has an answer, they most likely will let you know
[22:20] <unr3a1> Serraphyn, yes, openssl is installed
[22:20] <UX> under windows i used to use a software called "snoopware" that through it i could control all of my family's cellphones remotely so does anybody know of any software that can do that with linux?
[22:21] <raed> pless slo write
[22:21] <Joker_-_> NoobBadEnglish: then I'd probably cry
[22:21] <badluckmagnit> Ocean_ thanx SGD helped a lot
[22:21] <oCean_> badluckmagnit: nice tool huh
[22:21] <Serraphyn> unr3a1: I guess its time to ask, is custom resolution that big a deal for it... Sorry I'm out of ideas, if it was me i'd just start apt-get install every package with crypt in it ;)
[22:22] <badluckmagnit> oCean_ yes.. it helped me boot back to ubuntu i will finish my work then think about fixing grub
[22:22] <epaphus> hello all, could anybody tell me if its dangerous to backup the entire HD with dd within the same hard disk? with the command dd if=/dev/sda of=~/disk1.img
[22:22] <NoobBadEnglish> Serraphyn: I think your suggestion isn't good for recover data. Anyway thanks
[22:22] <Joker_-_> epaphus: lol, yes it is ;)
[22:22] <Serraphyn> NoobBadEnglish: What your doing isn't either, mk2fs will 'format' and make the drive blank. But W/E enjoy
[22:23] <Joker_-_> epaphus: it would try to "backup" itself, including the backup...
[22:23] <unr3a1> Serraphyn, unfortunately, yes it is.  I have a netbook with a 1024 x 600 resolution.  the game by default uses 1024x768.  its too big for my screen
[22:23] <slade6051> Can anyone direct me to a Rhythmnbox/Daap share channel?
[22:23] <NoobBadEnglish> Thanks to everybody. I'm going find solution elsewhere.   I will just have to wait to install
[22:25] <Joker_-_> UX: oh, never eard of that... I didnt even tough it was possible...
[22:25] <unr3a1> Serraphyn, thanks for trying to help though
[22:25] <unr3a1> appreciate it
[22:25] <UX> Joker_-_: i even could turn it on if it's off
[22:25] <Serraphyn> Joker_-_: Seems a bit fishy to me looking for an app to 'remote' control cellphones.
[22:25] <Joker_-_> UX: I see nice hacks... :)
[22:25] <nicklas_> yo
[22:25] <Serraphyn> unr3a1: sorry I couldn't do more...
[22:25] <Joker_-_> Serraphyn: hehe, would be neat tho ;)
[22:26] <UX> Joker_-_: no it's legal i used to do it under windows but it doesn't even work under wine
[22:26] <Joker_-_> Serraphyn: "damn, forgot my cellphone... let me browse my contacts remotely...
[22:26] <Serraphyn> Joker_-_: I think it could get you in ALOT of hot water with FCC and other companies though.
[22:26] <unr3a1> Serraphyn, nah, its ok.  its an obscure problem.  thanks again
[22:27] <UX> Joker_-_: i also can do that with any cellphone within range through bluetooth using bluesnarfer under linux. it comes with auditor
[22:27] <margaret> LjL nope
[22:27] <Joker_-_> bluesnarfer hun... imma look into that
[22:27] <nicklas_> what is the command for the bot, is it !command ?
[22:27] <ortsvorsteher> !bot | nicklas_
[22:28] <epaphus> erUSUL, thanks... dd writes even the sectors that are not written to the image file.. right?
[22:28] <margaret> if I install mozilla-mplayer plugin where does it go on the harddrive?
[22:28] <nicklas_> !nvidia
[22:28] <nicklas_> !printers
[22:28] <nicklas_> !linux printers
[22:29] <oCean_> !fishing > nicklas_
[22:29] <Joker_-_> hahah the commands are old analog modem commands :D
[22:29] <Serraphyn> margaret: tried doing a find / -name mozilla-mplayer
[22:29] <Joker_-_> AT DT
[22:29] <Joker_-_> lol
[22:29] <slade6051> Hey guys, I'm in on a sketchy hotel wireless connection, and my DAAP share will not share any of my metallica, but everything else seems fine(widely untested) any suggestions?
[22:29] <CosmicChaos> black videos in any video player, any idea :)
[22:29] <omer> hello
[22:29] <badluckmagnit> !fishing badluckmagnit
[22:30] <omer> hello every1
[22:30] <badluckmagnit> !fishing >  badluckmagnit
[22:30] <omer> hello
[22:30] <omer> heyy
[22:30] <margaret> doing updatedb Serraphyn
[22:31] <LjL> margaret: on my system, yep. "grep extension ~/.mozilla".
[22:31] <omer> hi
[22:31] <omer> hello
[22:31] <Joker_-_> *afk*
[22:31] <LjL> margaret: err, i meant "find ~/.mozilla | grep extension"
[22:31] <omer><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[22:32] <LjL> omer: what are you up to?
[22:32] <Dante123> hi all, sony vaio fx120 will not turn off when shutting down.  Any ideas?  BTW, acpi=off in boot parameters.  Anything else I should be trying?
[22:32] <Serraphyn> margaret: http://tinyurl.com/cdbrla <-- take your pick
[22:32] <Dante123> Ubuntu 8.04
[22:32] <UX> any ideas at all?
[22:32] <LjL> omer: i asked you a question, what are you up to? this channel is for Ubuntu support only, everything else is offtopic.
[22:32] <slade6051> Dante123: How are you shutting down? ie terminal or gui?
[22:32] <oCean_> UX: are you sure you are not talking about illegal software?
[22:33] <LjL> omer: this is not a channel for chat. try #defocus
[22:33] <UX> oCean_: iam very sure. i do the same with cellphones on range through bluetooth under linux using bluesnarfer and it's very legal.
[22:34] <LjL> omer: NOT HERE
[22:34] <Serraphyn> UX: I don't think accessing via bluetooth or any other method to a cellphone is legal and even if it is, the usage is to questionable to be really a 'supported' thing here.
[22:35] <josephnexus> hello everyone!
[22:35] <josephnexus> i'm familiar with setting up samba, but i've kinda run into an issue
[22:35] <josephnexus> my shared folder works wonderfully
[22:35] <josephnexus> anyone can log in and change files
[22:35] <josephnexus> except for the local user
[22:35] <Ax3> !enter | josephnexus
[22:35] <nmpribeiro> firewire from expresscard not detected... any help? http://paste.ubuntu.com/140991/
[22:36] <josephnexus> i have to run a sudo chmod 777 -R newfoldername
[22:36] <powertower> Can anyone help with audio trouble?
[22:36] <UX> Serraphyn: but when i bought my snoopware, it had a legal agreement that i had to agree too other wise, if misused, my warranty is void and iam put to official intorregation. So there must be the same application under linux
[22:36] <margaret> ok so one of the three  installed is at /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/kaffeineplugin.so
[22:36] <josephnexus> if I want to be able to access that file from the local user... i looked through smb.conf but I can't see the problem in there, since there is no section definition for my share.... how does gnome set up the shares automatically?
[22:36] <Serraphyn> josephnexus: are you mounting them as root user or someoen else
[22:37] <josephnexus> they are connected to as the guest user
[22:37] <josephnexus> so the files show up as being owned by "nobody"
[22:37] <UX> Serraphyn: on the other side metasploit framework is part of my backtrack cd, and it can be used in the most horrible way, so usage is not the problem in here the problem is availability
[22:37] <powertower> Can anyone help with flash audio problems? Or direct me to a room that can?
[22:37] <josephnexus> and normally i would change the smb.conf definition of the share... but apparently adding the share via gnome doesn't actually modify the smb.conf file... and unfortunately, that's the only way I know how to do it
[22:38] <josephnexus> powertower: what's the problem that you are having?
[22:38] <powertower> josephnexus : audio works everywhere except flash, I googled and googled but no forum solution worked for me
[22:38] <Serraphyn> powertower: amd64?
[22:38] <josephnexus> you on 64 bit?
[22:39] <powertower> 32bit
[22:39] <josephnexus> what version of ubuntu?
[22:39] <josephnexus> 8.04?
[22:39] <powertower> 8.04
[22:39] <josephnexus> yeah
[22:39] <progre55> hey everybody! how to download a "scm" project, given the url?
[22:39] <josephnexus> i moved to 8.10 and that solved my problem, but I dont know if that would resolve it for you
[22:39] <andrew_> dell 1450 wifi is a bit slow on ubuntu
[22:39] <slade6051> progre55:  try wget?
[22:39] <andrew_> also
[22:39] <Phil_Ewert> hi together, I've Problems with my "Hibernate"-Mode. (Since I use the german version, I don't know if thats the correct term).  When I initiate it, this small password window in the middle appears, but It doesn't listen to the keyboard. any suggestions?
[22:39] <powertower> Updates or new OS install?
[22:40] <andrew_> Dell 1450 usb not working at distance of about 10 meters
[22:40] <andrew_> (cuts out)
[22:40] <LjL> UX: can you explain again what you want to do for me? i might not be able to help you, but i have done some stuff related to gsm location
[22:40] <josephnexus> serraphyn... any ideas where gnome sets the permissions for shares and how the create permissions and such are?
[22:40] <progre55> slade6051, there is a command, called scm, but dont know how to use it )
[22:40] <slade6051> progre55: try man scm
[22:41] <progre55> slade6051, good advice :) let me try it..
[22:41] <Dante123> slade6051 gui for shutdown
[22:41] <Serraphyn> josephnexus: http://tinyurl.com/dz2j82
[22:41] <slade6051> progre55: I don't have that one installed on this box but that's atleast a good direction
[22:41] <slade6051> Dante123: try typing 'sudo shutdown -h now'
[22:41] <powertower> josephnexus : I do have the latest ISO, will try it I guess, hate to loose my dual display config, it was hard to get working
[22:42] <Serraphyn> powertower: what video card?
[22:42] <powertower> 3870
[22:42] <Serraphyn> ATI?
[22:42] <powertower> yeah'
[22:42] <Voltaire> radeon?
[22:42] <powertower> yeah
[22:42] <UX> LjL: well iam studying here in the US and my family is back in Australia, so i used to sent them pics of me and stuff and help them fix their cellphones remotely so we can keep in touch easily plus. sometimes i need to send some pictures to my roomate when we're doing some maintenance over large areas over to his pda.
[22:42] <Serraphyn> Yeah I can't help you there I avoid ATI like the plague
[22:42] <josephnexus> serraphyn... i've already set up the samba shares... i'm trying to use the gnome method (right click... go to sharing... mark for sharing... etc.) I alredy know how to modify smb.conf .  The trouble is, when I edit the share in gnome, I can't see where it is making the changes... I've already googled
[22:43] <josephnexus> powertower... 8.10 includes a tool to set up dual screens on ati
[22:43] <josephnexus> i've had good luck with it
[22:43] <josephnexus> made it a lot easier
[22:43] <powertower> Serraphyn: will probably avoid in the future, it just plays my games better in windblowz
[22:43] <Serraphyn> powertower: really? I found my nvidia out performed all ATI cards I could find of comp stats in windows even
[22:44] <Guest290342> powertower: Actually, ATI/AMD is working on open-source drivers. If supporting open-source is your thing, I recommend buying their cards.
[22:44] <josephnexus> powertower: just make sure that you let ATI/AMD know that is why you bought it
[22:44] <josephnexus> if you decide to go that route
[22:44] <hi_guys> hi guys :)
[22:44] <josephnexus> hi_guys
[22:44] <josephnexus> :-P
[22:44] <powertower> josephnexus: burning 8.10 to CD now
[22:44] <aranyik> hello
[22:44] <Tardis3003> hi
[22:45] <Serraphyn> anyways, I'm off, my question from 4 hours ago seems not really answerable here after all I guess... *afk* I guess
[22:45] <hi_guys> excuse me, i've got a question for ATI users
[22:45] <slade6051> powertower: why not run an update from online?
[22:45] <josephnexus> what was ur question?
[22:45] <josephnexus> serraphyn?
[22:45] <UX> LjL: so what type of GSM work were you doing?
[22:45] <Guest290342> powertower: Or use the alternate install disk for an update
[22:45] <josephnexus> maybe I can help ya
[22:45] <powertower> slade6051: this can be done?
[22:45] <aranyik> ive set up a dhcp server using multiple howtos on the web and it is still not working
[22:45] <hi_guys> is your TV-Out working with the beta fglrx drivers and jaunty 64bits ?
[22:45] <aranyik> i just cant pass throug this router
[22:45] <slade6051> powertower: yes gimme a sec and I'll get you a good link
[22:45]  * josephnexus has not jumped to jaunty yet
[22:45] <powertower> slade6051: Just using Update Manager?
[22:45] <hi_guys> ok
[22:46] <LjL> UX: gsm *location*. not really work, just tinkered with it... basically positioning without GPS but only the cell towers
[22:46] <Guest290342> powertower: Indeed. You just need to enable a few things in Software Sources
[22:46] <aranyik> ive set up dhcp, nat and dns server
[22:46] <powertower> can do
[22:46] <LjL> UX: i was under the impression you were after something similar but i guess not?
[22:46] <Serraphyn> Just looking at doing software development for X and was wondering what language people would recommend.  I know some older things or web scripting but nothing current
[22:46] <hi_guys> I've got a new Radeon4850 and I can't use my tv-out :(
[22:46] <Guest290342> Serraphyn: C
[22:46] <moroten> hi what should i write in fstab?  i have 80 gig ntfs disk  i want to be automatic mounted
[22:46] <UX> LjL: so you could locate cellphones remotely?
[22:47] <moroten> it to be*
[22:47] <Kirill_> Guys, I have a dillema. I have a Windows box and a Ubuntu box at my disposal. I have an HFS+ SATA drive connected to Ubuntu box with data on it and files larger than 10GB. I also have an unformatted USB External Drive that is the same model as the first SATA drive. I need to make a clone of that USB drive. What the heck do I do if I don't have a mac?
[22:47] <progre55> slade6051, I dont think that's the right command :) anyways, dont you know how to download this type of a link? scm:svn:https://archive-crawler.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/archive-crawler/trunk/heritrix2
[22:47] <ikonia> moroten: use an existing line and change the type to "ntfs-3g"
[22:47] <oCean_> hi_guys: jaunty discussions/issues go in #ubuntu+1 channel
[22:47] <LjL> UX: no, i only did it on the cellphone itself - i.e. i use my cellphone to know where i am (with a map loaded on it)
[22:47] <Guest290342> Kirill_: Clone preserving file system ?
[22:47] <slade6051> powertower: Go to system, admin, software sources, under the "updates" tab, at the bottom change it to normal releases and run update manager's check
  thx
[22:47] <Flannel> moroten: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions#Editing%20Ubuntu%27s%20filesystem%20table
[22:47] <UX> LjL: i see
[22:47] <LjL> UX: locating it *remotely* is possibly with some S60 programs (i have an S60 phone)
[22:47] <LjL> UX: but i've never really done that
[22:47] <josephnexus> unfortunately, the results from the search you sent me serraphyn only show me things I already know...
[22:47] <Serraphyn> josephnexus: sorry
[22:48] <josephnexus> but where the gnome samba configuration is actually making changes still remains a mystery... It's ok...
[22:48] <Kirill_> Guest290342 -> that's what i'm googling for right now, thanks
[22:48] <hi_guys> oCean_: ok, thank you
[22:48] <slade6051> progre55: in a terminal, try throwing wget infront of it
[22:48] <Guest290342> Kirill_: If you want to preserve the file system, you can try clonezilla or just use dd
[22:48] <Kirill_> Guest290342 -> but dd doesn't format the drive, does it?
[22:49] <aranyik> how can I configure my network so that my dhcpserver will automatically give the dns server address that he got from my ISP ?
[22:49] <andrew_> hi..
[22:49] <aranyik> please
[22:49] <Guest290342> Kirill_: Well no, but I believe you can just dd if=/path/to/disk1 of=/path/to/disk2
[22:49] <andrew_> my wireless device works.. with ubuntu.. but only when close to the radio.
[22:49] <margaret> can some please tell me how to point firefox to the gstreamer plugin to play this file http://www.apple.com/trailers/universal/fastandfurious/ any HD movie... I go to preferences in firefox then to applications then to other in the drop down and I dont know where to point in on my hard drive
[22:49] <slade6051> aranyik: what are you using for a dhcp server?
[22:49] <progre55> slade6051, okay, let me wget it recursively )
[22:49] <ikonia> aranyik: thats dynamic dns server update
[22:49] <LjL> UX: what sort of cellphone do you have anyway? i *suppose* there might be VNC servers for S60
[22:49] <Slart> aranyik: it would be far easier to setup a forwarding dns server on your router
[22:49] <LjL> UX: actually, there probably are
[22:49] <ikonia> aranyik: thats a reasonable task to setup
[22:50] <Kirill_> Guest290342 -> well I would do that but the unformatted drive is only showing that it has 4 megabytes of space on it and its supposed to have 500gb
[22:50] <powertower> slade6051: It's going TY....Hope this will resolve my issues
[22:50] <Guest290342> Kirill_: Well, I don't mean to sound naive or to annoy you, but have you tried?
[22:50] <aranyik> slade6051, : I am setting up a local network and i want to isolate it from internet with a this firewall router made of ubuntus
[22:50] <slade6051> powertower: good luck
[22:50] <Kirill_> Guest290342 lol I'm trying right now and i really appreciate the help :)
[22:51] <slade6051> aranyik: I would take the other guy's suggestions, I'm not terribly good with firewalling/dns's
[22:51] <Dante123> slade6051 will try that "sudo shutdown -h now" hang on
[22:51] <Guest290342> Kirill_: Clonezilla is a livecd for making copies of hard drives as well. I don't know if it supports hfs though.
[22:51] <UX> LjL: well it there's alot of ways to remote into mine because it's a very advanced one but my family are using average ones. mine is an HP ipaq
[22:51] <progre55> slade6051, nope, doesnt work )) it's downloading it as a webpage..
[22:51] <Tardis3003> Question: I recently installed ubuntu8.10 on my Lenovo s10e netbook and I've found that many windows are below the bottom panel. Its very inconvenient. The resolution is 1024x576. is there a way to get set the windows to show completely al the time?
[22:51] <slade6051> progre55: send the link once more
[22:51] <powertower> Guest290342: Clonezilla is fantastic, use everyday!
[22:52] <progre55> slade6051, scm:svn:https://archive-crawler.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/archive-crawler/trunk/heritrix2
[22:52] <Guest290342> Tardis3003: Umm, well, using a setup designed for the screen size is nice. The Ubuntu Notebook Remix is satisfactory.
[22:52] <Andre_Re> hello
[22:52] <Andre_Re> i have an eeepc and i want do do vlogs with it
[22:52] <Andre_Re> i use the eeexubuntu
[22:53] <hybr1der> how much space does ubuntu take?
[22:53] <Guest290342> hybr1der: Depends on what you install.
[22:53] <aranyik> Slart, i need to assign IPs to the computer in my network and they need to have the DNS server adress...so i must install a dynamic dns server in addition to the dhcp3? (I already installed ipmasq and dnsmasq)
[22:53] <Tardis3003> i've seen the netbook remix and it doesnt look like something i'm looking for. I'm ussed to ubuntu and would like to continue using it. any other ideas?
[22:53] <Slart> aranyik: doesn't dnsmasw take care of it?
[22:54] <Guest290342> Tardis3003: Making good use of alt+click
[22:54] <Dante123> slade6051 sudo shutdown -h now has the same effect- system seems to shutdown but screen with ubuntu and black bar remains.
[22:54] <Guest290342> Dante123: Yank the power cord?
[22:55] <aranyik> Slart,  oh i see...dnsmasq is offering dhcp server service!
[22:55] <Tardis3003> yes that works sometimes. but other times, the windows will not resize and thus i can not pull it up enough
[22:55] <LjL> UX: well i have no idea how one could control "normal" ones that aren't smartphones - i didn't think it would be possible at all
[22:55] <hybr1der> my regular install takes 17,2 GB
[22:55] <sebsebseb> Andre_Re: I don't think the eee versions are suppourted here.  try  #eeepc
[22:55] <slade6051> progre55: be a moment had to apt-get install subversion
[22:55] <progre55> slade6051, yeah, I've already installed svn
[22:55] <slade6051> Dante123: any errors or anything flagged as [failed]?
[22:56] <hybr1der> is it a normal size?
[22:56] <progre55> slade6051, but how to checkout from svn? )
[22:56] <Guest290342> Tardis3003: That's part of using GNOME. I had the same problem on a screen with two very large panels once. There's nothing you can do except use the keyboard & take a short in the dark (tab+enter)
[22:56] <UX> LjL: i used to do that with snoopware under windows but not sure how under linux. if you're interested get a windows box and buy snoopware you'll be able to do anything for cellphones. you could even turn the mic on and listen to conversations while no call is on progress
[22:56] <slade6051> progre55: and you have scm installed aswell, right?
[22:56] <Tardis3003> okay. thanks for your help i'll play around with it and get used to it:)
[22:56] <Kirill_> Guest290342 -> it says only 10 megabytes left or something like that
[22:57] <margaret> where can I post a snapshot of my desktop to show what I mean?
[22:57] <Kirill_> I'm going to go try clonezilla
[22:57] <Dante123> slade6051 not sure where to look (other than on the screen the last messages I see have to do with network-mangler
[22:57] <sebsebseb> hybr1der: a clean install of Ubuntu will be about 1GB.  and  Linux programs do not take  up that much space.  and so  if you haven't installed yet.  about  16gb for /  and  do a seperate home partition.  and a swap
[22:57] <progre55> slade6051, yeah
[22:57] <ortsvorsteher> !paste | margaret
[22:57] <Guest290342> Kirill_: Go for it. Or you could use a mac & dd..
[22:57] <margaret> ortsvorsteher: you can use pastebin for pictures
[22:58] <asdlsdl> hey does anybody know shy i can't enter to #C++?
[22:58] <Kirill_> Yeah, I don't have a mac though :(
[22:58] <Guest290342> asdlsdl: Banned?
[22:58] <Guest290342> Kirill_: You can mount hfs+ by using fuse can't you?
[22:58] <asdlsdl> nope
[22:58] <asdlsdl> Guest
[22:58] <LjL> asdlsdl: try asking #freenode
[22:58] <Kirill_> i can mount hfs+ but I can't write to it
[22:58] <ortsvorsteher> margaret: search the web for an fast paste service for pictures and put in here the url
[22:58] <hybr1der> i dont really understand this i just bought a 1TB HDD and i only got 864,9GiB free space after install, where did it all go?
[22:58] <Guest290342> Kirill_: I wonder if anyone out there has created a driver for it.
[22:58] <slade6051> progre55: I'm not sure on this one, mine gave me  some funky results
[22:59] <asdlsdl> if I type /j c++ it goes to overflow
[22:59] <Guest290342> hybr1der: Drive-makers classify 1tb as<PHONE_NUMBER>0 bytes
[22:59] <DasEi> hybr1der: check space with sudo fdsik -l
[22:59] <progre55> slade6051, okay, never mind :) thanks for the attention, though :) appreciate
[22:59] <Guest290342> hybr1der: Operating systems as 2^ the whatever
[22:59] <LjL> asdlsdl: (your answer is: you're not registered, and that channel is registered-only)
[22:59] <slade6051> Dante123: try pressing ctrl + alt +f4 and  login, then try sudo shutdown -h now it will allow you to see any errors
[22:59] <LjL> !register > asdlsdl    (asdlsdl, see the private message from ubottu)
[22:59] <powertower> Krill_: what are you trying to do? Mount a mac volume?
[22:59] <slade6051> progre55: sorry, wish I could help more, but svn isn't my strong point
[23:00] <progre55> slade6051, no problem
[23:00] <DasEi> hybr1der: one fact is the difference gb ~ mb, the other is that the label i soften rounded
[23:00] <Guest290342> powertower: He's trying to copy an hfs+ file system & contents to an identical disk w/out a make

[23:01] <arkanabar> I've forgotten how to kill a process with Top.
[23:01] <aranyik> Slart, does dnsmasq handle dynamic DHCP?
[23:01] <sv_osusr3> is there a system file that i can look into see , whether i am doing  a 16 bit or a 24 bit display?
[23:01] <powertower> Guest290342: full disk to disk copy including mbr?
[23:02] <Guest290342> powertower: I don't know all the details, but I believe so.
[23:02] <Guest290342> powertower: I think its just data actually. No OS
[23:02] <powertower> Guest290342: he can just use "dd" command
[23:02] <Guest290342> powertower: Ask Kirill_
[23:02] <powertower> man dd
[23:02] <arkanabar> According to top, opera continues to use approx 90% of CPU, even after I killed the window.  How do I get rid of it now?
[23:02] <Guest290342> powertower: I told Kirill_to use that first. Said it failed.
[23:02] <powertower> dd don't care about file system type
[23:03] <powertower> its sector by sector
[23:03] <Kirill_> powertower -> my New HD has 5 megabytes of space on it b/c it's not formatted
[23:03] <Guest290342> arkanabar: ps aux | grep Opera && kill <pid>
[23:03] <DasEi> sv_osusr3:might try /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[23:03] <Dante123> slade6051 it goes by so fast- would there be a log file to look at somewhere

[23:04] <Guest290342> powertower: Yup. I dunno why it failed.
[23:04] <Sketch_> hello
[23:05] <arkanabar> Guest290342 :  Just tried that.  It's still at the top of Top's CPU usage list, around 80%
[23:05] <Guest290342> arkanabar: ZOMBIE process
[23:05] <slade6051> Dante123:  throw that one into http://paste.ubuntu.com/ for me
[23:05] <Guest290342> arkanabar: You'll have to dump your memory (ie: reboot)

[23:10] <Guest290342> margaret: How about the gstreamer plugins?
[23:11] <margaret> Guest290342: yes
[23:11] <Guest290342> margaret: Can you view quicktime in another player?
[23:11] <dougl> can ubuntu be configured to support 2 users simultaneously with 2 of each videocards monitors and keyboard and mouses?
[23:11] <ikonia> Guest290342: do you have libquicktime1 nstalled
[23:12] <Guest290342> ikonia: Wrong person. ;)
[23:12] <ikonia> Guest290342: sorry
[23:12] <margaret> Guest290342: that is what I am trying to get to play it, none of the plugins work unless I donwload them first
[23:12] <LjL> dougl: i think so, as it should be just a matter of having two separate X servers with the right settings for each... but i have no clue about the specifics of actually doing it
[23:12] <sv_osusr3>  DasEi: thanks.your reply was helpful :)
[23:12] <unop> dougl, sure, have a look at multi-seat X

[23:14] <Dante1245> I am on two comps at once slade6051

[23:15] <unr3a1> ty LjL I will try that
[23:15] <serpico> salveeeeee
[23:15] <solexious_> Guest290342, livecd seems to autodetect
[23:15] <Dante123>  slade6051 okay thanks (I notice it says something about lapic)
[23:15] <margaret> ikonia:  mozilla-mplayer just freezes at 99%, mozilla-kaffeine does not work well, but can't seem to get the gstreamer to the quicktime section of firefox preferences
[23:15] <Guest290342> solexious_: Indeed. I guess you could use setxkb or something like or something like that?
[23:15] <slicker> so I tried setting JAVA_HOME in /etc/default/tomcat6 to several sane values (such as /usr, /usr/lib/jvm/ia32-java-6-sun) but no luck...
[23:16] <margaret> ikonia: and mozilla -vlc does load at all
[23:16] <Guest290342> margaret: Perhaps vlc backend?
[23:16] <slade6051> Dante123 is it a laptop or a desktop?

[23:16] <carlos> hi everyone!
[23:17] <jklock> !hi
[23:17] <hatter243> What would be a good way to keep an auto.home directory mounted? Presently it it mounted when I log in and unmounts when I log out. This is messing with some cronjobs that are running out of my home directory. Moving them to a directory other than my home directory is not an option.
[23:18] <Guest290342> hatter243: fstab?
[23:18] <dougl> thanks guys
[23:18] <Dante123> slade6051 sony vaio fx120 laptop
[23:18] <Flannel> hatter243: What on earth is an auto.home directory?
[23:19] <simon__> hatter243, have an auto mount script
[23:19] <hatter243> Flannel, autofs. Automatically mounts a network share as my home directory... It occurs to me I might be asking in the wrong channel
[23:19] <mrwes> Running 8.04 server edition, I have a cdrom and dvd drive and neither show up in sudo fdisk -l -- so I can't mount it
[23:19] <Flannel> hatter243: Log into a terminal and start screen perhaps?
[23:19] <Flannel> hatter243: Will that keep you 'logged in'?
[23:20] <Kirill_> I hope I don't format the wrong drive >.>
[23:20] <slade6051> Dante123: ok, this log isn't really doing much as far as any errors, let's try making our own, echo `sudo shutdown -h` > shutdown.log
[23:21] <hatter243> simon__, the mount command creates the error that says the directory is already mounted. Then the directory exists for an unknown amount of time before disappearing again. I'm hoping for a bit more reliability. Unless you know a good argument to pass to mount that I am not thinking of
[23:21] <ubuntu_> hello
[23:21] <Guest290342> Kirill_: Well, careful. :P
[23:21] <Guest290342> !hi ubuntu_
[23:22] <Kirill_> Guest290342 I'll try :'(

[23:22] <DasEi> solexious_:have an answer already ?
[23:22] <Guest290342> !hi | ubuntu_
[23:22] <hatter243> simon__, maybe I'll just have the mount command run once an hour and pipe the error to /dev/null. hah
[23:22] <Dante1245> so type this from terminal sudo shutdown -h` > shutdown.log
[23:22] <Dante1245> so slade6051 type "sudo shutdown -h` > shutdown.log" at terminal??

[23:32] <unr3a1> LjL: That is correct.  cause you gotta change a config file before compilation.
[23:32] <zash> Dark_L0rd: do you have avahi-autoipd?

[23:37] <_chun> I'm having a problem with my headphones; they mute the speakers when plugged in, but when I mute/unmute the volume in ubuntu, I get sound from both my laptop's speakers and the headphones. I don't think it's a hardware problem as it worked fine in windows; the card is a "Realtek ALC268" and I've installed the latest drivers from their site.  But that's not realistic for your purposes.
[23:38] <LjL> _chun: are you sure there isn't a switch somewhere in the ubuntu mixer to selectively enable and disable speaker output (separately from headphones output)?

[23:44] <LjL> _chun: uhm, i don't know. it's an issue that seemed very common with older ubuntu (and alsa) versions, judging from bug reports from ~2007, but those also hint to the fact that it should be fixed in newer alsa versions, like the one shipped with intrepid or jaunty
[23:44] <lewench> im trying too setup my motorola S9 Bluetooth headset on my Audacious, but when writing the stated info on my .asound config file i do not see the bluetooth  option.

[23:45] <Ale1> Im having trouble getting my sound to work on ubuntu 8.04
[23:45] <LjL> _chun: have you tried asking in #ubuntu+1? that's the Jaunty channel, and it would probably be more useful to bring the issue there - failing that, file a bug
[23:45] <LjL> !offtopic | mrwes
[23:45] <mrwes> yah I know...sorry
[23:45] <unr3a1> LjL: that didnt work for me.  I got an error.  do you know what curl dev package I need?

[23:48] <zumo> Hi. I'm having sound problems. Although alsa does play sound I don't hear anything. In gnome volume manager everything looks sweet: Master & pcm are at 80 and iec95b is muted. The only thing thats odd is that alsamixer only shows the master volume control for a device called PulseAudio. Can anybody help me?
[23:48] <ozzloy> how do i make a ftp server serve /var/www ?  i have vsftpd set up where i can log in and go to that directory over ftp but i can't do anything in that directory
[23:48] <solusdelgar1> in windows i bridged my wireless and wired connections allowing my xbox 360 to connect to the internet through my laptop. is it possible to do this in ubuntu? my wireless card seems to be working fine in ubuntu so far so drivers should not be a problem
[23:48] <ozzloy> i tried chmodding ugo+rwx everything
[23:48] <ozzloy> and still nothing
[23:48] <serpico> DasEi in my campus using the proxy for internet connection but in my home i don't use it
[23:49] <acfrazier> Hi, after upgrading to jaunty 9.04 beta, the border around windows become garbled
[23:49] <mrwes> ozzloy, why don't  you use ssh, it's more secure
[23:50] <DasEi> serpico: I don't get what are you looking for; check synaptic-paketmanagement and search for proxy
[23:50] <didi> How can I change the xchat dictionary for spellcheck?
[23:50] <DasEi> serpico:(or apt-cache search proxy)
[23:50] <serpico> DasEi ok tnx
[23:50] <ozzloy> mrwes: that's what i'm telling this other guy but he is used to his environment which uses ftp
[23:50] <Amrit> Hi everyone. This is my first time here
[23:51] <redfish> slade6051
[23:51] <mibdavid> I was using an ubuntu live cd when my computer suddenly shut down.  Now when I try to load into ubuntu it just sits there with a loading bar .. then shuts down.  It does the same when I try to log into windows.  What can I do?
[23:51] <y2k> hi
[23:51] <ozzloy> he's using adobe dreamweaver
[23:52] <y2k> iam planning to buy a labtop so what's the best hardware details that i should get to run linux with best graphics?
[23:52] <tacoma949> when I mouse over the top bar of a open window it dissappears or looks distorted, any ideas?
[23:52] <LapTirma> Hi Mibdavid, boot from Ubuntu Live CD and select options in the beginning.
[23:52] <DasEi> !best | y2k:
[23:53] <mibdavid> which option am I to select?
[23:53] <DasEi> !hardware | y2k
[23:53] <mrwes> ozzloy, you're going from ubuntu to ubuntu machines? or Widows to Ubuntu?
[23:53] <LapTirma> Then experiment with the options to boot and see which one lets you in. Normally, it is to with your hardware and some option is having difficulty booting.
[23:53] <mrwes> *Windows
[23:53] <tacoma949> when I mouse over the top bar of a open window it dissappears or looks distorted, any ideas?
[23:53] <DasEi> y2k : you might google models coming with pre-configured ubuntu, they' ll fit, dell f.e.
[23:53] <mibdavid> ok thanks, trying it out now
[23:53] <LapTirma> I would start with basic videa driver and acpi off
[23:53] <mrwes> ozzloy, I'd run WinSCP from the windows machine, it's SFTP
[23:54] <ozzloy> mrwes: windows to ubuntu
[23:54] <progre55> hey people, does anyone know, how to, given a pom.xml file, download a maven project?
[23:54] <LapTirma> I don't have a machine handy right now otheriwse would have wlaked you
[23:54] <tacoma949> LapTirma, are u talking to me?
[23:54] <ozzloy> mrwes: i'll see if i can convince him to try winscp
[23:54] <mrwes> ozzloy, they install openssh-server on the Ubuntu box and then install WinSCP on the Windows machine
[23:54] <LapTirma> No
[23:54] <mrwes> It's secure
[23:54] <pearl> How do I remove the automatic login feature_
[23:54] <LapTirma> Talking to mibdavid
[23:54] <tacoma949> LapTirma, k, direct your chat to someone
[23:55] <kaveh> anyone here using alsa had amplified overtones in voices when using ventrilo?
[23:55] <mrwes> ozzloy, does Dreamweaver do sftp?
[23:55] <ozzloy> mrwes: i don't know.  hold on a sec checking
[23:55] <mibdavid> no problem, I appreciate the respons
[23:55] <LapTirma> tacoma949 - my bad. today is my first day here. sorry for being rude
[23:55] <Kirill_> Does anybody know how I can use Ubuntu to format and write to a HFS+?
[23:55] <DasEi> pearl: system > admin... > loginwindow

[23:56] <tacoma949> LapTirma, no its chill, lol just there are so many people in thies rooms it becomes a cluster ***k
[23:56] <pearl> DasE1, ahh thanks
[23:56] <DasEi>  Kirill_:I'm not sure, but I think it supports reading only
[23:56] <kaveh> ill be asking again soon, im tryin to use pulseaudio but i keep getting "main.c: could not parse command line" and im new to linux so im just googling ot for ages :P
[23:57] <tacoma949> LapTirma, you new to linux? im new to ubuntu, 2day on it, its weird to point click everything haha
[23:57] <Guest290342> kaveh: Just out of curiosity, have you tried man pulseaudio?
[23:57] <LapTirma> Kirill_ see if this URl helps you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=392287
[23:57] <frog_> hi, what could be the reason, that i cannot neither diff nor commit with svn?
[23:58] <kaveh> i have
[23:58] <Guest290342> !scope | frog_
[23:58] <LapTirma> tacoma949 - I am not new to Linux and Ubuntu but never cared to get onto IRC
[23:58] <kaveh> maybe i should re-read
[23:58] <Guest290342> Oops.
[23:58] <Guest290342> Darn!
[23:58] <kaveh> lol
[23:58] <kaveh> last time when i read it i couldnt find anything about it so :\
[23:58] <Guest290342> frog_: It's not relevant here. Perhaps try the svn documentation or irc channel?
[23:58] <syockit> is there a file browser that integrates with a shell, showing contents of the current pwd in its view? and also inserts filenames to the shell terminal when the file in the browser is clicked?
[23:59] <tacoma949> LapTirma, ah, ic, well tip of the day for ya then.. when u type someones screenname, u can for ie: on me, type tac and press tab and it should put the rest :)

[15:07] <leoquant> ah, nevermind
[15:07] <YoBoY> the wiki.u.c need lot of love :)
[15:13] <leoquant> YoBoY, seen that anti wiki speech on the budapest uds on youtube? :P
[15:16] <leoquant> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Cxs9OHIBcs after 24,50
[15:23] <YoBoY> yes I was on the room ;)
[15:26] <leoquant> ツ
[16:04] <locodir-user> bonjour
[17:59] <YoBoY> http://photos.april.org/v/UbuntuPartyParis201105/  << some pics of this week end
[18:04] <YoBoY> hi toros
[18:05] <toros> hi YoBoY
[18:07] <YoBoY> How are you ?
[18:09] <toros> fine, thanks
[18:09] <toros> and you?
[18:10] <YoBoY> exhausted, thanks :)
[18:11] <YoBoY> have you seen our new ubuntu-fr tshirts ?
[18:12] <toros> no, I haven't
[18:12] <toros> could you give me a link?
[18:13] <YoBoY> http://photos.rocknpol.org/index.php?showimage=33
[18:13] <toros> wow, awesome!
[18:13] <toros> it's orange \o/
[18:13] <YoBoY> yes :D
[18:14] <toros> like the Hungarian t-shirts
[18:15] <YoBoY> they were printed the same week as the uds ^^
[19:22] <locodir-user> hi
[19:23] <locodir-user> any 1 available for chat
[19:24] <YoBoY> hi locodir-user, you have a question ? or you just want to chat ? :)
[19:25] <locodir-user> yes..can u pls tell how to update the kernel
[19:27] <locodir-user> i used the cmd Gksudo "Update-Manager"
[19:27] <akgraner> locodir-user, and YoBoY I just asked in -kernel if someone could pop in to answer the question or if there was a wiki page for that
[19:28] <akgraner> but it's a holiday in the US so not sure who is around atm
[19:29] <locodir-user> ohh
[19:29] <mhall119> akgraner: good to see you back on your foot
[19:29] <mhall119> ;)
[19:30] <akgraner> hehe
[19:30] <akgraner> yep - I can walk without crutches now, but I have to be careful
[19:31] <akgraner> as the kneecap doesn't want to stay in place
[19:31] <mhall119> what's the long-term prognosis?
[19:32] <mhall119> wait until it heals itself?
[19:32] <akgraner> surgery
[19:33] <akgraner> too much damage...just waiting for the ortho appt now to determine when
[19:33] <mhall119> that sucks, but hopefully will prevent more of this
[19:34] <locodir-user> wat is the latest kernerl available
[19:34] <akgraner> it will - but it's a long painful recovery - they have to fix the ligaments, acl, and meniscus
[19:36] <YoBoY> locodir-user: perhaps you can ask on #ubuntu support channel too
[19:36] <akgraner> locodir-user, as long as you are using 'sudo apt-get dist update' you should have the latest kernel
[19:36] <YoBoY> +1
[19:37] <YoBoY> what appened to you akgraner ? :O
[19:37] <akgraner> you can also ask in #ubuntu or #ubuntu-kernel
[19:38] <locodir-user> k
[19:38] <akgraner> YoBoY, blew my knee out in the customs line in New York on the way back from UDS
[19:38] <YoBoY> bad luck :]
[19:39] <akgraner> so I've been afk for a week healing and resting the leg...non-weight bearing for the last week
[19:42] <locodir-user> get well soon :)
[19:42] <akgraner> YoBoY, tell me about it....:-/  but It will all work out - and I'll get with you on UWN this week with deadline dates etc
[19:42] <akgraner> and I'll email dpm as well
[19:43] <akgraner> and this should be awesome if we can get the timing right for all of this - again great suggestion!
[19:45] <YoBoY> cool :)
[19:45] <YoBoY> and I need to write my team report this week ^^
[19:47] <akgraner> YoBoY, I'll be blogging in the morning about all the UWN stuff so you'll see more about it all in the am
[19:51] <YoBoY> ok :) I'll try to build a special team before the end of the week to translate the uwn in french
[19:51] <akgraner> YoBoY, awesome let me know what if anything you will need from me
[19:52] <YoBoY> sure
[19:52] <akgraner> gotta run - catch you all laters :-)
[21:14] <TrickyJ> Ronnie: Do we have any chainnel for metaspoilt ?
[23:24] <nigelb> akgraner: !
[23:24] <nigelb> akgraner: you're back!


 is there any utility to encrypt cramfs?
[07:28] <guiverc> @Irispk, this isn't the support channel & it's too late for anything related to jammy
 So hash and moving the manual over happens tommorow this release date snuck up on me
 you're good @lynorian i'm in the same boat.


[00:37] <mparillo> And if it doesn't, that might mean you have encountered a bug worth reporting.
[00:59] <Fire-Dragon-DoL> any idea why xdg-open errors with /usr/bin/xdg-open: 570: /usr/bin/xdg-open: kfmclient: not found ? I don't have konqueror (use dolphin)
[01:08] <Unit193> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-utils/+bug/545044
[02:41] <Deltarod> hey guys, I'm doing some research for a school project and was wondering if there was a way to look at the code base? I cant seem to find a place to review the repository anywhere
[02:50] <ThOR27> Hi! I'm having an issue with Kubuntu 18.04. I use a US International Keyboard with dead keys, and shortcuts that uses "dead keys" such as ALT+` to change window for the same app doesn't works. Also, if I try to use any "deadkey" to set any kind of shortcut it doesn't works, it keeps as no key was pressed.
[05:31] <user|96768> I need Linux headers for the kernel 2.6.24-32 generic.
[05:36] <krytarik> Wow, that's old...
[05:36] <hateball> I doubt it's in any supported release
[05:36] <krytarik> Yeah, me too.
[05:38] <user|96768> 2.6.24-32? Yes that is what the vendor is supporting. An install on a legacy laptop appears to need a network driver compiled. It is e1000 driver. Also a USB driver would help, but also need a driver. Apparently these drivers need to be re-compiled and I have not located the correct linux header versions yet.
[05:54] <nulln> Is there a way to copy the kubuntu installer onto a partition of my HDD? I
[05:55] <hateball> nulln: what are you trying to accomplish?
[05:55] <nulln> I'm trying to install it on an iMac5,2. I don't have any CDs on hand and a live usb wont show up in rEFInd or the default apple "hold-option" menu.
[05:58] <nulln> hateball: sorry, forgot to add the mention, see above
[06:00] <diogenes_> nulln, does mac offer pxe?
[06:03] <nulln> diogenes_: I don't know. I think it may, because I googled and found a thing called NetBoot. Not sure if that's the same as pxe.
[06:04] <diogenes_> nulln, anyways, there is a possibility to start the installer directly from the HDD
[06:05] <diogenes_> but you need somehow to get grub running
[06:06] <nulln> oh, i just found this: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/dd-usb-to-partition.1329407/#post-14381390 replacing the usb path with the iso, do you think this would work?
[06:07] <valorie> you have to mount the ISO to get it to work as I recall
[06:07] <valorie> ah, that method does that
[06:08] <nulln> valorie: would it be worth a shot?
[06:11] <valorie> anything is worth a try
[06:11] <nulln> ok, i'll give it a shot
[06:11] <valorie> dd is scary to use the first time, but just check your path
[06:11] <hateball> Don't run with scissors
[06:12] <nulln> yeah, setting up the live usb is always a big "cut the red wire or blue wire" to me
[06:12] <nulln> although i get the paths right i always triple check for like 3 hours lol
[06:12] <hateball> just make sure you dd to the device and not a partition
[06:12] <valorie> lol
[06:13] <nulln> hateball: what do you mean? the idea is to image a seperate partition with the installer, so i can boot to it from the hdd
[06:15] <hateball> nulln: I mean when you dd an ISO to a thumbdrive, as I thought you were talking about now
[06:16] <nulln> ahh yeah, when i set up live usbs i dd to the device
[06:16] <nulln> i thought you were reffering to the hard drive
[06:16] <hateball> yeah no I should have read more carefully :)
[06:17]  * hateball knows nothing about Macs and EFI anyhow, goes back to "working"
[06:19] <BionicMac> Wow I love the auto/instant/smart transparency of Konsole.
[06:19] <BionicMac> Makes for a nice desktop experience. The little things ya know? =)
[06:20] <valorie> I prefer yakuake!
[06:20] <valorie> even more instant
[06:20] <nulln> exactly. the little things that kde does are why i prefer it in the long run
[06:20] <nulln> also kde gets me the look and feel that i like
[06:21] <valorie> same here
[06:39] <BionicMac> exactly
[06:40] <BionicMac> valorie: I've never tried yakuake.
[06:42] <BionicMac> valorie: oooo's and aaahhh's... wow this yakuake seems superb already.
[06:43] <BionicMac> And yet another thing I love about Ubuntu in general... So easy to install anything you want quick and painless. and fast. right at your fingertips.
[06:45] <valorie> it's like the first thing I install
[06:45] <valorie> the second is konversation
[06:46] <BionicMac> Insta-hide your terminal!
[06:46] <BionicMac> =)
[06:47] <BionicMac> makes for a clean desktop and stat!
[06:47] <BionicMac> Yet, I am not so sure it will replace Konsole for me. We shall see.
[06:51] <valorie> you can tab it too
[06:51] <valorie> if necessary
[06:51] <BionicMac> you mean the + sign att the bottom to open another shell right?
[06:53] <valorie> or control + alt +t I think
[06:55] <BionicMac> shift+ctrl+t for me. thanks.
[06:57] <BionicMac> OH I just pulled my irc session in
[06:57] <BionicMac> nice
[06:57] <valorie> wow
[06:58] <valorie> konversation <3
[06:58] <BionicMac> I can't get away from terminal clients. I've tried.
[06:58] <BionicMac> I'm on a weechat kick now.
[06:58] <valorie> and I can't get into 'em
[06:59] <BionicMac>   Probably because it's all I've ever used.
[06:59] <BionicMac> And ya can't screen the gui ones.
[06:59] <Unit193> No, I started wit a (horrible) gui client, went to a horrible ncurses client, then irssi.
[07:00] <Unit193> BionicMac: Quassel has a client/core concept, so you can detach.  There's also znc.
[07:00] <BionicMac> I started with BitchX... moved to Epic for a while.. Been on irssi for about 15+ years.
[07:00] <BionicMac> laterly tried the guis again. Quassel, Konversation and Hexchat. They are all nice.
[07:01] <ricktimmis[m]> I have become a big fan of Riot using matrix to hook back to freenode
[07:01] <BionicMac> BionicMac: =) makes it nice. Quassel is my gUI of choice in irc clients for that reason.
[07:01] <ricktimmis[m]> My favourite feature in Quassel was the integration with KDE text to speeches
[07:02] <BionicMac> then again I run irc from different remote servers through the years so ... terminal clients kind of win the all around "useful-in-all-situations" battle foe me.
[07:02] <BionicMac> ricktimmis[m]: I really need to give Quassel ful attention for a whlie.
[07:02] <BionicMac> s/ful/full/
[07:03] <ricktimmis[m]> Ah yes
[07:03] <valorie> Konversation can act as a front-end to irssi btw
[07:03] <ricktimmis[m]> We install Konversation by default now, which doesn't have TTS I don't think
[07:03] <BionicMac> Unit193: Yes, znc has proved to be extremely useful.
[07:04] <ricktimmis[m]> But that's just me trying to be future boy, having my machines talk to me
[07:05] <BionicMac> ricktimmis[m]: I found myself fumbling around Konversation trying to use tor and sasl-ext etc etc. So I went back to terminal clients.
[07:05] <ricktimmis[m]> I am really excited about up coming 18.04 is looking fantastic
[07:05] <BionicMac> valorie: hmmmmm... I likey this yakuake..
[07:05] <BionicMac> coffe is ready!
[07:06] <BionicMac> man I can not type tonight.
[07:06] <ricktimmis[m]> Ah coffee, what an excellent idea
[07:06] <valorie> midnight here, so away from irc I go
[07:06] <valorie> nice to see ya, ricktimmis[m]
[07:07] <ricktimmis[m]> Right got to go, busy day be back later
[07:07] <ricktimmis[m]> You to @valorie {{{{{{hug}}}}}}
[07:08] <BionicMac> valorie: 'Nite valorie
[07:09] <valorie> niters
[07:09]  * BionicMac sips  Indonesian Medium Roast (from a local roaster) freshly ground by yours truly & brewed in a French Press.
[07:09] <BionicMac> The only way to fly!
[07:09] <BionicMac> Ahhhhhh
[07:09] <Unit193> BionicMac: I like you.
[07:10] <Unit193> French press and freshly ground, only thing left is to switch to a dark roast. :3
[07:13] <BionicMac> Well, little known fact is... the dark roast has less (pure/clean) flavor and far less Caffeine. I've recently started drinking non-dark-roasts.
[07:14] <BionicMac> When the beans are roasted.. the longer/darker/more they are roasted you lose the caffeine during the process.
[07:14] <BionicMac> SO, Ihad to try for myself.. I bought my firs medium and light roast and BAM crystal meth in a cup!
[07:14] <BionicMac> Tis true this science thing.
[07:16] <BionicMac> I won't sleep until the dawn. Most especially having this Indo medim roast at 2:00 in the morning.
[07:17]  * BionicMac pours Unit193 a cup of coffee... join me =)
[08:37] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[08:38] <diogenes_> great, wbu?
[08:39] <BluesKaj> wbu?
[08:40] <diogenes_> wbu = what about you
[08:40] <BluesKaj> insomnia  :/
[08:40] <diogenes_> because of?
[08:41] <BluesKaj> dunno
[08:41] <diogenes_> exams ahead? broken love? running out of money? buying a new car tomorrow? :)
[08:45] <BluesKaj> non of the above ..let's just leave it alone
[08:45] <diogenes_> ok
[14:33] <furby3> Hi community :) I'm a Linux newbie but software developer on windows. I'm installing Kubuntu on my server as a VM. I would like to access Kubuntu from my Windows 10 client via RDP. What is the simplest way to accomplish that (1. Access desktop with custom resolution 2.multiple connections to the same screen to be able to use multiple screens on my
[14:33] <furby3> client. 3. Clipboard, 4. File transfer).
[14:42] <hateball> !info xrdp
[14:42] <hateball> !xrdp
[14:42] <hateball> nope, no special wiki page for that
[14:42] <hateball> but yeah, if it is RDP you want, xrdp is what you need
[14:42] <hateball> furby3: otherwise there are other protocols like VNC
[14:43] <furby3> ok, thx :)
[14:43] <hateball> file transfers I'd suggest you do over SFTP
[14:43] <hateball> !sftp
[14:43] <hateball> unless you wish to inflict great pain on yourself by setting up SAMBA
[14:43] <hateball> alas, I must dash. good luck!
[14:44] <furby3> I would love to have a drag and drop solution within the xRDP connection.
[15:24] <user|75585> I cannot change network settings, only the VPN tab is available, so no network
[15:24] <user|75585> I am using KDE 4.4.5
[15:24] <user|75585> Does that mean I need root privileges
[15:36] <user|7786> how to kubuntu usb
[15:37] <user|7786> ? Hi
[15:48] <user|54072> hi
[15:48] <diogenes_> user|7786, what?
[15:49] <user|54072> somebody can help me?
[15:49] <diogenes_> !ask
[15:49] <user|54072> well, I'm a windows user but I wanna try kubuntu
[15:50] <diogenes_> great
[15:50] <user|54072> so I have a usb with the 17.10.1 iso
[15:51] <diogenes_> great
[15:51] <user|54072> my doubt is in the partitions configuration. Let me explain
[15:52] <diogenes_> try ur best
[15:53] <user|54072> the configuration right now is: C (W7) D (my data: music, data, movies, etc)
[15:53] <diogenes_> and?
[15:54] <user|54072> is there any way to keep using my data with kubuntu and windows? can you help me with the configuration?
[15:54] <diogenes_> user|54072, first of all tell me if you have any experience with linux at all
[15:56] <user|54072> not at all, I am a windows user. I read about all the linux distros and I found that kubuntu is good for windows users
[15:57] <diogenes_> well first thing you need to know is
[15:57] <obert> kubuntu is easy
[15:57] <diogenes_> there are many different types of ubuntu versions and its derivatives (as kubuntu)
[15:57] <diogenes_> there is stable release maintainted for 5 years
[15:58] <diogenes_> there are releases which are supported for 6 months
[15:58] <obert> you need to install yakuake though
[15:58] <diogenes_> the 17.10 that you have chosen, will be supported for a short period of time
[15:58] <diogenes_> that's why I advice you to pick 16.04 version
[15:58] <user|54072> got it
[15:59] <diogenes_> that's first, second about your data
[15:59] <diogenes_> you got disk D with data, it will be of course accessible from both windows and linux
[15:59] <diogenes_> so you don't have to worry about it
[15:59] <diogenes_> now what you have to do the first steps on windows
[16:00] <diogenes_> you need to download a piece of software called EASEUS partition manager (free version)
[16:00] <diogenes_> and resize your disk D, make at least 50 GB of free space
[16:01] <diogenes_> then you go ahead with linux installation, whenever you got any questions, just come here and ask
[16:01] <user|54072> diogenes_:  thanks
[16:01] <user|54072> one more question
[16:03] <user|54072> I read an article and used it as a base to do a dual boot
[16:03] <diogenes_> and?
[16:04] <user|54072> well, the first time I try to install the 17.10 I stuck in the partition part. I explain:
[16:05] <diogenes_> 17.10 will die in July 2018
[16:05] <user|54072> got it, I'm gonna download 16.04 lts
[16:05] <diogenes_> so once again, pick either 16.04 which will be supported till 2021 or wait few more days till a new stable release is coming up
[16:06] <user|54072> so the article said: create a partition for /, other for /home and other for swap
[16:06] <diogenes_> this moth, a new 18.04 stable will be released, it will be supported for another 5 years, but as for now, dowload 16.04 and later you can upgrade to 18.04
[16:06] <diogenes_> about partitions
[16:07] <diogenes_> if you intend to have on linux also a partition like disk D on windows, where your data will be keps and survive the re-installation
[16:07] <diogenes_> then you need a separate /home partition
[16:07] <diogenes_> if you intend to keep all your data on windowses disk d
[16:08] <diogenes_> then you don't need a separate  /home
[16:08] <diogenes_> keep in mind
[16:08] <diogenes_> that everything you download on linux's /home partition, will be accessible only while you're on linux, when you go on windows, it will not be accessible
[16:08] <user|54072> copy that. As I said, I'm a rookie and the partitions are a little bit treaky
[16:09] <diogenes_> so I'd advice you to make only one single partition / (root)
[16:09] <diogenes_> no /home no /swap nothing else
[16:09] <user|54072> got it
[16:09] <diogenes_> and just store the most important date on windows's disk d of course from linxu you can copy to windows disk d
[16:10] <diogenes_> data*
[16:10] <diogenes_> so the thing you need to do are:
[16:10] <diogenes_> 1. make free space by resizing your disk d
[16:10] <diogenes_> 2. when you reach partitioning in linux, go with "something else"
[16:10] <diogenes_> there you gonna find free space
[16:11] <diogenes_> 3. just create a single / partition with all that free space
[16:11] <diogenes_> and install
[16:11] <diogenes_> and one more thing, you said you have windows 7 not 10 right?
[16:11] <diogenes_> because if you have windows 10, then you need a one more partition called /boot/efi
[16:12] <diogenes_> otherwise your linux won't boot
[16:12] <user|54072> right (I don't like 10)
[16:12] <diogenes_> so it doesn't run in uefi mode, you should be fine then
[16:13] <diogenes_> one more thing for you to try, is go to the live session
[16:13] <diogenes_> with 16.04 and try out your sound, your wifi and your microphone
[16:14] <diogenes_> if everything works then proceed with installation
[16:15] <user|54072> that was my doubt, because when I tried the first time: I made the / partition and everything ok, the /swap... ok but for the /home a "useless" message appeared and I thought I was doing something wrong
[16:16] <diogenes_> make only one partition / and choose ext4, after the installation come here and we will create a swap file instead of a swap partition
[16:16] <user|54072> so: 1- download 16.04
[16:16] <user|54072> 2- try the live session
[16:17] <diogenes_> yes
[16:17] <user|54072> 3- if everything is ok, proceed to install
[16:17] <diogenes_> yes
[16:17] <user|54072> 4- do it with an only / (root) partition
[16:18] <diogenes_> yes
[16:18] <diogenes_> ext4 <[16:19] <user|54072> 5- come back to create a swap file
[16:19] <diogenes_> yes
[16:19] <user|54072> diogenes_: thanks a lot
[16:20] <diogenes_> yw
[16:20] <user|54072> did I do right choosing kubuntu (as windows user)?
[16:21] <diogenes_> yes
[16:24] <user|54072> diogenes_: thank you a lot! Have a nice day
[16:24] <user|54072> I will come back
[16:25] <diogenes_> ty
[16:25] <diogenes_> same
