[13:53] <Slart> airtonix: I don't think the system monitor includes cache when it reports memory usage
[13:54] <Slart> outer_space: in the "view" menu.. there's "my processes", "active processes", "all processes"
[13:54] <outer_space> good. i want it to cache my ssd

[14:04] <Gavilaso> Question: I would like to know how do i fix the black user list on ubuntu 9.10  I install it yestarday it was working fine. but when i create a new user and log off from the current (admin) to log in with the new user account. The users list square where you type your username or choose one is all black i can't click or do anything.... i'm new to linux.. can some help me??
[14:04] <sheepz> i'm trying to a send a message with an attachment mutt -s "Subject" -a README.txt<EMAIL_ADDRESS>< message_body.txt am I doing something wrong, because it includes the e-mail in the attachment
[14:04] <Slart> Gavilaso: I've never heard of that problem before.. are you running the default login screen? no customizations?
[14:05] <Dzaeck> how to custum ubuntu
[14:05] <Dr_Willis> Dzaeck:  clarify what you mean
[14:07] <stillme> pls how do i install ubuntu 9.4 on samsung r60 plus
[14:07] <jack__> stillme: the same way you install it on an acer 5532
[14:07] <Slart> sheepz: that looks like the examples I found here http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/sending-mail-with-attachment.html .. odd
[14:07] <frxstrem> I am currently reinstalling Ubuntu a lot on my computer, and I was just wondering if it would be a good idea to have /home as a separate partition from the root file system - also, would Ubuntu then re-use these directories as home directories for the new users (with the same name, of course), or would it make a new directory no matter what?
[14:08] <Slart> stillme: booting from a regular install cd doesn't work?
[14:08] <jack__> why not?
[14:08] <stillme> i havent installed it before
[14:08] <jack__> stillme: its very easy
[14:08] <stillme> i cant use it as live cd but am scared the display drivers wont work
[14:08] <Slart> frxstrem: you can tell it to reuse the same /home partition for a new install.. there's an option during the install
[14:09] <Slart> frxstrem: I think it's at the same stage where you decide how to partition the hard drive
[14:09] <geirha> frxstrem: Having a separate home partition is always good. When you create a user and a dir by the same name exists in /home, it will use that as the new user's homedir.
[14:10] <CryptIce7> is there any secure deletion program that i can securely remove a file.
[14:10] <frxstrem> geirha: thanks, that's the answer I was looking for :)
[14:10] <frxstrem> Slart: sorry, but I already knew that :/
[14:10] <Slart> !info wipe | CryptIce7
[14:10] <CryptIce7> Slart: thanks
[14:10] <Slart> CryptIce7: you're welcome
[14:11] <talmai> How can i install libmozjs-dev on ubuntu 9.10 without uninstalling everything else?
[14:11] <sheepz> Slart, yes, I was following those instructions
[14:12] <youngtill1die> Slart: how can i add it to my source list?
[14:12] <BANSHE3> Say theres a file, and inside that file it says like something something windows vista, how do I use Find to search all files and look for that key word
[14:12] <amani> my fingerprint reader not work.. what i can do for that??
[14:12] <Dzaeck> can you help  website to special packeg for ubuntu soft ware
[14:12] <Slart> youngtill1die: there a checkbox in system, administration, software sources.. but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to just add the whole repository.. there might be some bad things in there (bad = buggy)
[14:13] <Slart> BANSHE3: grep seems like what you're looking for
[14:13] <BANSHE3> Slart would you have any idea what i would type
[14:13] <JustEric> Anyone know how to get an intel wifi 5100AGN Wireless card working?
[14:14] <erUSUL> BANSHE3: (they have to be plain textfiles) → grep -R "thatword" directory/
[14:14] <LzrdKing> morning
[14:14] <Slart> BANSHE3: something like this     grep -R 'somewordtofind" /some/base/folder
[14:14] <Dzaeck> what happened hypep terminal ubuntu and par six
[14:14] <stillme> so after installing ubuntu do i go downloading drivers for samsung r60??
[14:15] <frxstrem> I am gonna reinstall Ubuntu and mount a partition for /home, but how big should it be (I have 30 GB available of 40 GB in total)
[14:15] <stillme> where do i get the drivers??
[14:15] <Slart> BANSHE3: oops.. 'somewordtofind'  or "somewordtofind" .. don't mix those
[14:15] <erUSUL> frxstrem: do 10 GiB for / (root) the rest for home
[14:15] <frxstrem> erUSUL: okay, thanks :)
[14:16]  * Dr_Willis wonders what a Samsung R60 is
[14:16] <Slart> BANSHE3: then there's all kinds of switches you can add..  -R means recursive.. -i means case insensitive .. there are many many more but those are the ones I use the most
[14:17] <airtonix> erUSUL, interesting situation : 10gb for root and everything else for home used to be my choice, but now im thinking / = 3gb /usr = 10gb /var =5gb  /home = the-rest
[14:17] <exarkun> When I plug in a flash drive, it doesn't get automounted.  How do I change that?
[14:18] <airtonix> exarkun, start by giving more information about your system and software
[14:18] <exarkun> Ubuntu 9.10
[14:18] <erUSUL> airtonix: for a desktop PC separatting /var and /usr has no advantages imho
[14:18] <Dr_Willis> exarkun:  thers been soem bugs/issues with the automounting of devices - ive had smiler issues. I tend to just mount them by hand when they dont auto  mount.
[14:19] <exarkun> Dr_Willis: Yes... I've been mounting by hand for 6 months now, every time I plug in the device.
[14:19] <airtonix> erUSUL, right now i have it as / = 10gb /home = the-rest. however... after isntalling much doc packages... /usr/share/blah is reaching 8gb in size.
[14:19] <LzrdKing> erUSUL: lots more stuff goes into /usr than any other dir, so it could make sense to mount a larger volume on /usr
[14:19] <Gavilaso> Slart i'm running everything default...
[14:19] <Dr_Willis> exarkun:  ive noticed that mine would auto mount for a while.. then stop. somthing with gvfs was crashing.
[14:19] <LzrdKing> erUSUL: plus, /var needs to be mounted rw while other directories can be mounted ro
[14:19] <exarkun> gvfs is the software that's responsible for this?
[14:19] <Slart> Gavilaso: and it worked before you created the new user?
[14:19] <csaba> when I start LDAP, I get an error message saying "No DB_CONFIG file found in /var/lib/ldap"... and there are some dbd files there...
[14:19] <csaba> why do I get this error?
[14:20] <Gavilaso> Slart it was working fine until i create the new user
[14:20] <airtonix> LzrdKing, ja, /var is also somewhere you would have the mysql and apache root
[14:20] <Dr_Willis> exarkun:  part of it at least. Monitor the /var/log/messages file and /var/log/dmesg (i think) or kernel. files.. it may give a clue. but i know of no actual fix.
[14:20] <erUSUL> LzrdKing: i know that but that makes sense in a server or multiuser system. a desktop pc used by 1 person or a family do not need the extra security of ro /usr/ and all that stuff; as i said IMHO
[14:20] <Slart> Gavilaso: you could look through /var/log/syslog and see if you notice anything around the time you tried logging in.. it's a regular text file
[14:20] <Gavilaso> Slart after i create the new user and reboot or log off so i can loging as the new user.. the log in screen.. or the square where you see the user is in black you can only see the background or wallpaper
[14:21] <Gavilaso> Slart i'm new to linux how do i get there?
[14:21] <exarkun> Dr_Willis: Okay, thanks for the hint.  I haven't investigated the gvfs part of this before, so that gives me something new to look into, at least.
[14:21] <LzrdKing> erUSUL: but as airtonix said, he's nearly out of room on / because of 8 GB in /usr
[14:21] <airtonix> erUSUL, but i think i have a solution, which involves changing the mount point for /usr to a new partition to accomodate its growing size (i'm going to want more doc packages)
[14:21] <Slart> Gavilaso: open a terminal, write "gedit /var/log/syslog" .. it will probably be easier to start looking from the end since it might be a big file
[14:22] <Gavilaso> Slart i can't login...
[14:22] <queso> If I have applications linked to in the gnome panel, where are they stored?  I'd like to be able to find the command to start an application on a remote computer.
[14:22] <Slart> Gavilaso: oh.. right.. didn't think of that
[14:22] <LzrdKing> airtonix: if you have another drive, mount it on /mnt, do cp -a /usr /mnt, then unmount /mnt and mount the drive on /usr; once you verify that everything works, you can unmount /usr, then rm -rf /usr/*
[14:22] <exarkun> queso: right click on the icon and select "Properties"
[14:22] <LzrdKing> then remount the drive on /usr
[14:23] <Slart> Gavilaso: do you have a live cd you can boot from? (the regular desktop install cd is a live cd)
[14:23] <exarkun> queso: The command should be there.
[14:23] <Gavilaso> Slart it just sits their.. the only ico i see is the accesibility.. or the man with the hand on side
[14:23] <Gavilaso> yes
[14:23] <Gavilaso> slart yest
[14:23] <queso> exarkun: I've ssh'ed to the remote computer, I'm not actually in gnome on it.
[14:23] <LzrdKing> airtonix: make sure you add the drive to /etc/fstab so /usr is mounted on boot
[14:23] <erUSUL> LzrdKing: i'm not talking about a specific case it was more of a genral opinion (see my response to frxstrem ). in the airtonix case i sayy that if you are going to install a lot of packages then 15 or 20 GiB (i have 15 GiB myself) for root and you are done :)
[14:23] <airtonix> LzrdKing, thats pretty much the method im going to use
[14:23] <airtonix> erUSUL, true most people wont grab 8gbs of doc packages  like me
[14:24] <jlebrech> does anyone know if there is a service that can recommend software to me based on the apt-get starts of ubuntu?
[14:24] <LzrdKing> airtonix: what doc packages do you need that take up so much space?
[14:24] <tux_> anyone know how to compress mp4 with ubuntu?
[14:24] <airtonix> jlebrech, please defien what you mean by " based on the apt-get starts of ubuntu "
[14:25] <tux_> i have a 25.5mb file and i want to compress it to under 25mb to fit in gmail
[14:25] <dj_segfault> tux_: mp4 files are already compressed
[14:25] <Dr_Willis> tux_:  try one of the many archiver tools out.. but good luck getting much more compression
[14:25] <airtonix> LzrdKing, lots of python docs ( mostly all of them ), i have lots of python packages too
[14:25] <exarkun> queso: You can start a display remotely. :)
[14:25] <tux_> dj_segfault, yup but is there anything else to edge it that little bit more
[14:25] <LzrdKing> tux, you can try gzip -9, but you won't be able to compress a compressed file very much; in fact, it might grow
[14:25] <jlebrech> aironix: package x is getting really popular, and it has a description and reviews. and you can just click install. like an rss feed style app
[14:26] <queso> exarkun: I can run the apps remotely via ssh
[14:26] <LzrdKing> tux_ ^
[14:26] <tux_> LzrdKing, worth a try
[14:26] <DiKKy> PKZDH
[14:26] <exarkun> queso: I don't know which files the information is stored in, sorry.  Probably something in ~/.gnome2 I suppose.
[14:26] <DiKKy> HEARTIEZ <3<3<3  GOOD NIGHT  Pi LOL <3
[14:26] <DiKKy> TRAKE B HEARTIEZ <3
[14:26] <dj_segfault> tux_: I would recommend looking into something that can break it up into multiple files
[14:26] <DiKKy> I STOP
[14:26] <airtonix> jlebrech, you mean like the apt:// url handler that firefox has ?
[14:26] <DiKKy> A MONTH
[14:26] <DiKKy> SO WILL I!!!!!!!!!!
[14:26] <queso> exarkun: k, thank you.  I think I may have found a way to figure it out
[14:26] <DiKKy> AND I R CRIEZ
[14:26] <DiKKy> HIGH ON DRUGS LOW ON LIFE
[14:26] <FloodBot3> DiKKy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:26] <LzrdKing> tux_: you could also try editing the content to make it a bit shorter
[14:26] <tux_> LzrdKing, added 1mb :)
[14:27] <LzrdKing> tux_: or reencode it at a lower bitrate
[14:27] <tux_> its a video mp4, hard to compress, it went from a 92 avi to 25.5 mp4
[14:27] <Gavilaso> BRB
[14:27] <FloodBot3> DiKKy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:28] <tux_> winFF doesn't have an mp4 option unfortunately
[14:28] <LzrdKing> tux_: if you converted it yourself, reconvert it but use slightly higher compression settings to the codec you used
[14:28] <Burzmali> Hello, anyone have advice for keeping one workspace at a default resolution while letting an application (Wine) resize another?
[14:28] <jlebrech>  airtonix: like a desktop app, like message of the day. so it'll show you ad package you havent got install and explain what it does. especially if it has reviews.
[14:28] <Dr_Willis> Burzmali:  you mean a work space, and not a seperate monitor right?
[14:28] <tux_> LzrdKing, don't have the original anymore, i used prism video converted on winblows
[14:29] <Burzmali> Dr_Willis: Yes
[14:29] <airtonix> jlebrech, no there is not.
[14:29] <Dr_Willis> Burzmali:  workspaces/virtual desktops - ive never seen  be able to do differnt res's
[14:29] <jlebrech>  airtonix: what do you think? good idea?
[14:29] <wolfjb> I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 64bit, how do I install libpcsclite1 32 bit library? I don't see an option for it in apt-get
[14:30] <dj_segfault> Burzmali: I have two different displays at different resolution.  I do it using separate X displays in NVidia's driver
[14:30] <wolfjb> I have libpcsclite1 64bit installed but that won't work for me
[14:30] <airtonix> jlebrech, closest you get to ideas on start up is : ailurus
[14:30] <Dzaeck> time watcher
[14:30] <Burzmali> dj_segfault: I'm running nvidia too, let me check that out.

[14:46] <jose__> I want to make a set of scripts available to all users in my machine. What's the best solution? Do I the executables under /usr/local ??
[14:46] <tomeo> thanks Haffe
[14:46] <Pici> h2o: it looks like you need to fill out your birthdate before the enter button becomes active, did you do that?
[14:46] <jose__> tomeo, try gnome-do
[14:46] <LzrdKing> tomeo: alt-f1 will open the gnome menus and you can use the arrows to move around and enter to select your application
[14:47] <h2o> i cant see the birthday thing
[14:47] <tomeo> how do I access the top menu bar of ubuntu just by using the keyboard?
[14:47] <Pici> tomeo: if you press ctrl-shift-numlock you can use your numpad to control the mouse cursor
[14:47] <LzrdKing> tomeo: alt-f1
[14:48] <tomeo> thanks Pici
[14:48] <jose__> tomeo, try gnome-do
[14:48] <jose__> I want to make a set of scripts available to all users in my machine. What's the best solution? Do I the executables under /usr/local ??
[14:49] <LzrdKing> jose__: /usr/local/bin is probably the best location, if there is no package that contains those scripts
[14:50] <jose__> LzrdKing, so anything under /usr/local/bin is accessible to any user?
[14:51] <lastelement0> mguy what logs would i want to look at for network items
[14:51] <LzrdKing> jose__: if they have read and execute permissions on the directory and the files inside
[14:51] <rjharv> is anyone else getting a 503 from http://help.ubuntu.com ?
[14:51] <makaveli0129> hey quick question how would i find out the driver name that my wireless is using i'm using the restricted driver in jaunty trying to set up kismet
[14:51] <Pici> rjharv: Yes. Its not just you.
[14:51] <rjharv> :)
[14:52] <rjharv> was just about to try the ec2 stuff
[14:52] <jose__> LzrdKing, so /usr/local/bin is added to every users path by default or is it /usr/local/bin?
[14:52] <yshavit> Is there a way to essentially set a different /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf per connection? My connection at home requires a "prepend domain-name-servers" that my work connection doesn't require. Or is it fine to have that prepend there superfluously at work?
[14:53] <LzrdKing> jose__: you may need to add the path to $PATH in /etc/profile
[14:53] <adalal> hey, is there a way to connect to a wpa2 network over commmand line with a hidden ssid?
[14:53] <abulu> hi, I'm having problems with aptitude...
[14:53] <LzrdKing> jose__: not /etc/profile, hold on
[14:53] <airtonix> makaveli0129,  lshw -C Network | grep driver
[14:54] <rjharv> abulu: whats the problem
[14:54] <jose__> LzrdKing, Basically what I want is a set of scripts under a directory to be accessible to every user on a machine....
[14:54] <abulu> when ever I try to install, search, everything I get a msg saying that 68 packages will be removed
[14:54] <abulu> but, until I know, some of the packages can't be removed
[14:55] <makaveli0129> airtonix: thank you kind sir
[14:55] <rjharv> abulu: hmm sound slike its a hang over from a apt-get remove
[14:55] <miha> i'm trying to set grub splash http://shibuvarkala.blogspot.com/2009/11/how-to-make-your-own-splashimage-for.html .. i see no changes, any ideas?
[14:55] <rjharv> abulu: will message you
[14:55] <fruitwerks> how do I get sun java jdk?
[14:55] <airtonix> miha, need more information.
[14:56] <phylock> can anyone recomend a good latex writer, atleast with suport for projects, autocompleation and inline spellchecker
[14:56] <zleap> phylock, i use LyX
[14:56] <airtonix> fruitwerks, http://ubuntuguide.org/
[14:56] <miha> ailyn well i copied lenovo.xpm to /boot/grub ... i guess this script should say 'found Debian background' but it doesnt
[14:56] <LzrdKing> what file sets the path for all users when they log in?
[14:56] <phylock> zleap - i take a look
[14:57] <miha> airtonix sorry
[14:57] <airtonix> miha, you still haven't told us what version of ubuntu you are using
[14:57] <miha> 9.10
[14:57] <zleap> ok
[14:57] <zleap> think the site is lyx.org
[14:57] <airtonix> LzrdKing, ~/.profile i think
[14:57] <gunksta> abulu - try something like this - apt-cache --installed rdepends mono-runtime
[14:57] <gunksta> just replace mono-runtime with a package that it's trying to remove
[14:57] <LzrdKing> airtonix: that's specific to the user though
[14:58] <airtonix> LzrdKing, yes.
[14:58] <miha> airtonix i made 640x480 14 color indexed image, as some other site suggested :D
[14:58] <miha> do i have to 'enable' splash?
[14:58] <LzrdKing> airtonix: isn;t there one that is used for all users, something in /etc/?
[14:58] <miha> it seems 'graphic' though
[14:58] <adalal> hey, is there a way to connect to a wpa2 network over commmand line with a hidden ssid?
[14:59] <airtonix> LzrdKing, you're not referring to /etc/skel ?
[14:59] <LzrdKing> airtonix: thats used when a new user is created
[14:59] <airtonix> LzrdKing, correct
[14:59] <Strife89> What file contains the listing for grub? I wish to edit the name of an entry.
[14:59] <phylock> fruitwerks - apt-get sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-jre
[15:00] <airtonix> LzrdKing, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables
[15:00] <LzrdKing> airtonix: isn;t there a file that sets the default PATH variable for all users when they log in, then goes to ~/.profile or ~/.bashrc?
[15:00] <fruitwerks> uhh yeah sun-jdk is just not in the repository
[15:00] <abuayyoub> Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me. I just installed lucid a couple days ago and I seem to be having a problem with audio threw HDMI. not sure what the problem is, video works perfect but no sound at all over HDMI

[15:02] <souffledev> did anyone have success with postgresql8.4 in karmic?

[15:03] <upera-onite> ubuntu snobs-forget it-it may have been of help to you too!
[15:03] <gunksta> souffledev - yes
[15:03] <erUSUL> fruitwerks: multiverse is enabled ?
[15:03] <melm> hello
[15:03] <souffledev> gunksta, did you just install it off the repository?
[15:03] <erUSUL> fruitwerks: System>Admin...>Software Sources
[15:03] <gunksta> souffledev - yeah, is it not installing?
[15:03] <souffledev> gunksta, it is but it doesn't like to start
[15:03] <fruitwerks> heh.. this is a headless install
[15:03] <blendmaster1024> i'm trying to install grub legacy to fix my 9.04 install, i'm at the grub shell on the livecd in a chroot of my install (udev is mounted), but i can't run the root or setup commands because it doesn't see any devices. so ... what now?
[15:03] <upera-onite> ban me!
[15:04] <gunksta> souffledev - define "doesn't want to start"
[15:04] <abulu> gunksta: what mono-runtime does?
[15:04] <melm> some of app dont just run like skype and blender any one can help me plz
[15:04] <michi_> hey guys, is there an easy way to get mac keybords working?
[15:04] <fruitwerks> got it.. thanks
[15:05] <gunksta> abulu - ignore mono-runtim, it's just something I threw in there as an example. you need to use one of the packages apt is trying to remove
[15:05] <souffledev> gunksta, did you install the metapackage or postgresql-8.4?
[15:05] <totu> ciao
[15:05] <souffledev> gunksta, meaning just `postgres` or `postgresql-8.4`?
[15:05] <gunksta> abulu - this will show you what you have on your system that depends on that package. dborphan is another neat option
[15:05] <erUSUL> fruitwerks: then check /etc/apt/sources.list
[15:06] <jose__> LzrdKing, Thanks dude!
[15:06] <erUSUL> fruitwerks: it shiuld be a matter of uncommenting a couple of lines
[15:06] <gunksta> souffledev - I almost always use the metapackage -- but remember, before using postgres it has to be configured. It's not like mysql
[15:06] <souffledev> gunksta, do you have a doc you used? :-)
[15:06] <souffledev> instlalation doc

[15:07] <frostburn> how does one prevent applications from stealing focus?
[15:08] <frostburn> also are there any compiz plugins that allow me to do the windows 7 thing where moving a window to an edge makes it take 1/2 the screen realestate?
[15:08] <souffledev> gunksta, thanks
[15:08] <Slart> frostburn: there is a compiz setting for focus stealing prevention
[15:09] <Dr_Willis> frostburn:  i seem to recall seeing some guide that sort of did that with compiz. KDE4 allready has a similer feature built in
[15:09] <ianwizard1> I am having trouble with Inhibit Applet, it works just fine, except when I close the lid, it doesn't catch it and the computer suspends.
[15:10] <frostburn> Slart, ah i see, it under general, focus prevention level
[15:10] <gunksta> souffledev - postgres is a nice database, but it's not like mysql. I would come closer to saying it's like SQL-Server done right.
[15:10] <raffix> boa dia
[15:10] <frostburn> Dr_Willis, yeah, i haven't seen anything yet, i'll google around a bit more
[15:10] <electro_> Can someone some me an example of how to put a post-install script into the preseed file? I am familiar with kickstart, but preseed appears much different.  I keep getting on error.
[15:10] <raffix> br ae?

[15:10] <AdvoWork> is there any way I can take an exact snapshot of  a server, so that I could install it on another server if needs be?
[15:11] <rocket16> How to make autoindent of parentheses in Gedit?
[15:11] <erUSUL> AdvoWork: clonezilla ?
[15:11] <rocket16> Like whenever I make "{" in Java or C++, it move a little bit right, making it indented,
[15:11] <Pici> !clone | AdvoWork
[15:11] <mguy> AdvoWork: You can use dd
[15:11] <ianwizard1> abuayyoub: yeah, I have the same problem, but have always just used the built in speakers.
[15:11] <airtonix> frostburn, i have window + numpad 6 set to move the window to take 1/2 the screen on the right side on first push, then 3/4 the window on second push then full width on third push
[15:11] <abulu> what can happens if I run apt-get -f install?
[15:11] <souffledev> gunksta, it doesn't even start dude.
[15:12] <airtonix> frostburn, window + other numpad keys do the same for those directions
[15:12] <souffledev> gunksta, this tutorial is kinda useless
[15:12] <souffledev> gunksta, i am not talking about client connect to pg server
[15:12] <melm> hey can anyone help me plz i use ubuntu 9.10 and some applications dont run when i click on them
[15:12] <souffledev> gunksta, the server itself never starts
[15:12] <gunksta> souffledev - that's weird.
[15:13] <peleczek> hey
[15:13] <frostburn> airtonix, ah ha, ok found it, i'll play around with these settings, i bet i can get something more optimal than even win 7's default
[15:13] <souffledev> gunksta, i pull it from from standard ubuntu repo and it should at the very least start the server yeah?
[15:13] <phylock> melm - check the location the link points at
[15:13] <rocket16> How to make TAB like indent with { automatically in Gedit? Like it works in Geany?
[15:13] <gunksta> souffledev - yes
[15:13] <peleczek> anyone knows how to make one of the ttys for example tty3 to load irssi after login?
[15:14] <gunksta> souffledev - try this /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.4 stop && /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.4 start
[15:14] <souffledev> gunksta, i am starting to believe that the package is broken
[15:14] <jose__> how do I add a directory to every user's PATH?
[15:14] <gunksta> souffledev - my idea needs sudo, sorry
[15:14] <ianwizard1> rocket16: use geany, that's what I do and you obviously have experience with it
[15:14] <AdvoWork> mguy, so with dd can i just do an exact clone of *everything* ? what about restoring, am i limited to restoring to the same hardware?
[15:14] <gunksta> souffledev: the package may be broken now, not sure. I'm on lucid but it did work for me on karmic
[15:14] <souffledev> gunksta, that's ok. i own the box.
[15:14] <souffledev> Error: could not exec /usr/lib/postgresql/8.4/bin/pg_ctl /usr/lib/postgresql/8.4/bin/pg_ctl start -D /var/lib/postgresql/8.4/main -l /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-8.4-main.log -s -o  -c config_file="/etc/postgresql/8.4/main/postgresql.conf" :
[15:14] <rocket16> ianwizard1: Yes, I do have. But, it would have been better it the feature have been implemented in Gedit as well
[15:15] <souffledev> gunksta, ^^
[15:15] <Pici> rocket16: There may be a plugin for gedit that does that, have you check out that tab in the preferences? or added the gedit-plugins package?
[15:15] <souffledev> !postgresql
[15:15] <JustEric> Who was I speaking to earlier about the 5100AGN?
[15:16] <souffledev> Pici, you got anything about pg 8.4 on karmic?
[15:16] <souffledev> it's horribly broken i think
[15:16] <souffledev> doesn't create directories and necessary files
[15:16] <ianwizard1> The inhibit applet doesn't inhibit when I close the lid.  Any body have any ideas?
[15:17] <souffledev> this system did not have pg prior to installing 8.4
[15:17] <souffledev> so in essence it's clean
[15:17] <rocket16> Pici: Yes, I have done in Preferences, but thanks for the plugins package. I am downloading it, really thanks.
[15:17] <souffledev> Mr. Martin Pitt. Kindly help if you're around.
[15:17] <acicula> !patience
[15:17] <gunksta> souffledev: is there anything else in /var/log/messages
[15:18] <abulu> can I trust on it: The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
[15:18] <gunksta> abulu: yes
[15:18] <souffledev> gunksta, nothing.
[15:18] <abulu> I is the result of apt-get -f install
[15:19] <JustEric> So, Ubuntu doesn't allow me to connect to the internet. Hardwire doesn't work and my wireless 5100 doesn't work. Any ideas?
[15:19] <kyngbuntu> Does anyone have any updated information on how to set a different OS as default in grub? every website I've referenced so far mentions editing menu.lst, but my grub folder doesn't even have that file, so I'm assuming that is an old way of handling this issue.
[15:19] <gunksta> souffledev: rats. I wish I could be of more help, but I really don't know.
[15:19] <souffledev> gunksta, that's cool dude. thanks
[15:19] <Traveler6> hello all you clever (i hope) people.
[15:19] <abulu> on the list exist some packages that is a dependency of another that I don't want to remove

[15:21] <kyngbuntu> i am not using 9.10. this is my first experience with nix OS and i, perhaps foolishly, went with 10.04 assuming the beta was in a pretty reliable state

[15:22] <Pandemonium_ppk> *get
[15:22] <gunksta> abulu: then here's the problem. i'm guessing that these dependencies were originally installed as a dependency for something else. try installing this file with a --reinstall flag and it should stop autoremove from trying to remove it.
[15:22] <erUSUL> Pandemonium_ppk: all should work

[15:23] <Traveler6> how do i get vodafone 3g usb modem to work with 9.10?
[15:23] <ianwizard1> kyngbuntu: as said, since 9.10 ubuntu has used grub2, the config file that you need to edit is  /etc/default/grub
[15:23] <kyngbuntu> ok thank you very much for you help gentleman :)
[15:23] <Traveler6> and edit what?
[15:23] <Pici> souffledev: Did you install the postgresql-server package or postgresql-8.4 ?
[15:23] <abulu> gunksta, how can I know what package have started this problem?
[15:24] <souffledev> Pici, postgresql-8.4 thanks is it the -server?
[15:24] <gunksta> abulu: did you remove something recently?
[15:24] <Pici> souffledev: no, just checking though.
[15:24] <arand> Pandemonium_ppk: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport has some hardware related info, generally just search for the model and ubuntu as a keyword, and see if there are any problems...
[15:25] <Traveler6> how do i get vodafone 3g usb modem to work with 9.10? useing a huawei k3520 modem
[15:25] <Pandemonium_ppk> ty arand
[15:25] <Traveler6> ?
[15:25] <Pandemonium_ppk> i'm looking now but not seeing anything about dvd burners
[15:25] <wyclif_> ianwizard1: I just looked in /etc/default, but there's no /grub file there even though I am running Ubuntu 9.10 and using grub
[15:25] <erUSUL> Traveler6: right click on the NetworkManager icon. choose edit connections got to the 3g modems tab...
[15:26] <geekphreak> Pici: howdy
[15:26] <erUSUL> Pandemonium_ppk: as i said all usb dvd's should just work. they do not need a special driver just like a hard disk do not need it
[15:26] <ianwizard1> wyclif_: I am on 9.10 and that's where it is for me, and that's where it should be.
[15:26] <soicon> hey guys, I'm using efax-gtk to send and receive fax smoothly and now I want to email the received fax without saving it to the hdd ..so which document viewer should I use to view the fax and send it through email? thanks.
[15:27] <Pici> souffledev: I assume you created that file in /etc/postgresql/8.4/main/postgresql.conf ?
[15:27] <Pici> geekphreak: hi
[15:27] <wyclif_> ianwizard1: how do I explain the fact that there's no grub default file and yet grub runs on reboot?
[15:27] <Oyster> hi every1, does anybody know of yota drivers for linux? do they exist at all?
[15:27] <frostburn> airtonix, checking that out too, thanks for the info =]
[15:27] <geekphreak> wyclif_:  do you have file /et/default/grub
[15:27] <peleczek> wyclif it's normal i don't have that file there either
[15:27] <geekphreak> etc*
[15:28] <souffledev> Pici, which file the data dirs and the rest?
[15:28] <ianwizard1> look in /boot and see if there is a grub config file there.  maybe somehow you got an old version of grub.
[15:28] <wyclif_> geekphreak: I have loads of default files for other services, but no grub file
[15:28] <galerien> Hi gys, could anyone help me with my aptitude/apt-get please?
[15:28] <wyclif_> geekphreak: and yet grub is def. running
[15:29] <peleczek> you have scripts to make grub.cfg in /etc/grub.d
[15:29] <geekphreak> wyclif_:  ok
[15:29] <Pici> souffledev: The file itself.  It looks like the postgres-8.4 package only distributes a sample file in /usr/share/postgresql/8.4/postgresql.conf.sample
[15:29] <souffledev> Pici, why?
[15:29] <wyclif_> geekphreak: just listed contents of /etc/default lots of services like hal but no grub
[15:29] <kamokow> After installing java through apt-get, java-docs didnt install (it said to type no+return to abort). I didnt really need the docs, so I just aborted it-- but now everytime i install something via apt-get it keeps coming up. I've been ignoring it for awhile, but its starting to drive me insane. How can I stop this?
[15:29] <souffledev> Pici, i remember in 8.3 it actually created those files for us :-)
[15:29] <geekphreak> wyclif_: which ubuntu version?
[15:30] <miha> airtonix http://www.wolfey.si/lenovo.jpg :D
[15:30] <wyclif_> geekphreak: 9.10 same as you?
[15:30] <pirearadu> hy all
[15:30] <galerien> I tried to install php5-symfony1.0, but it only "partially install" and now I can't install anything because it's telling me that it's trying to solve the problem but don't succeed
[15:30] <geekphreak> wyclif_:  i am on lucid :)
[15:30] <Pici> souffledev: I've not used postgres in a long time, I'm just going by what I see in apt-cache and apt-file
[15:30] <pirearadu> how to boot a iso image from usb?
[15:30] <pirearadu> how to boot a iso image from usb?
[15:30] <souffledev> Pici, oh ok. it exists just fyi then.
[15:30] <abulu> gunksta, yes, but I can't remember what package was
[15:30] <erUSUL> pirearadu: use unetbootin or the usb creator
[15:30] <wyclif_> geekphreak: ah, the bleeding edge. Can't wait for Lucid stable release
[15:31] <Jimi_Neutral> Hi all..I have an edimax ps320u print server. I am on a private network but when I run the wizard utility it wont find the server. I have  gone into it directly and changed the ip of the print server to match my network settings and it still wont see it....please help as this is really important
[15:31] <souffledev> Pici, lemme go through it again and see any discrepancies in the main config thanks
[15:31] <kamokow> Oh, wait, I didnt realize I could remove it-- the fact I just realized this now makes me wonder what I was thinking. You can ignore my question :P
[15:32] <arvind_khadri> galerien, sudo dpkg --configure -a ; sudo apt-get install -f
[15:32] <galerien> ok
[15:32] <galerien> i'll trie it, thx
[15:32] <gunksta> abulu: doesn't really matter. Apt knows why it installed something. Did you ask for it specifically (user required) or was it installed as a dependancy. In the latter case autoremove will try to take it off the system if it is no longer required. That's why reinstalling it will fix the issue, because it will set the package to required.
[15:32] <geekphreak> arvind_khadri: howdy sir
[15:33] <pirearadu> erUSUL I do not put Ubuntu on USB
[15:33] <geekphreak> wyclif_: whats the actuall issue
[15:33] <ravigehlot> What is the executable for Apache2? There is no httpd or httpd2.
[15:33] <geekphreak> ravigehlot: apache2
[15:33] <ravigehlot> geekphreak: thanks
[15:34] <erUSUL> pirearadu: so; what are you trying to do ?
[15:34] <gunksta> on lucid - does rhythmbox start slowly for anyone else? My music collection is hardly large and the machine has 4G of RAM. Banshee starts up instantly.
[15:34] <wyclif_> geekphreak: IOW I see all kinds of config files in /etc/default, the usual services like alsa, cron, cups, nvidia-kernel, fetchmail, spamassassin &c. but no grub file.  There is no issue; grub runs fine at bootup, I just wonder where I would go if I ever needed to change settings
[15:34] <pirearadu> i try to make a usb bootable
[15:34] <erUSUL> gunksta: #ubuntu+1
[15:34] <abulu> gunksta, I don't understanding, u are saying to run apt-get reinstall, is that?
[15:34] <galerien> @pirearadu where are you from?
[15:34] <geekphreak> wyclif_: whats in /boot/grub ?
[15:34] <mguy> gunksta: Very slow, I use audacious
[15:34] <pirearadu> romania galerien
[15:35] <peleczek> anyone knows how to make one of the ttys for example tty3 to load automatic irssi after being loged?
[15:35] <galerien> @pirearadu You don't speak french I suppose? (cause i've got a great tutorial, in french)
[15:35] <gunksta> abulu: yes - it looks like sudo apt-get install --reinstall yourpackagehere
[15:35] <wyclif_> :geekphreak: /boot/grub/default :)
[15:35] <geekphreak> wyclif_:  thats all , no menu.lst or grub. cfg?
[15:36] <geekphreak> no stage files?
[15:36] <gunksta> erUSUL: oops yeah. wrong tab
[15:36] <pirearadu> and know how to speak French but little galerien
[15:36] <galerien> ok, just hold on a second, I don't know if you will understand it all, but it might give you some leeds
[15:37] <abulu> gunksta, ok, but how can I know what package should I put on the end of the command?
[15:37] <wyclif_> geekphreak: no, that's not all, you're right, I have menu.lst but NO grub.cfg
[15:37] <geekphreak> wyclif_:  you are using old grub
[15:37] <wyclif_> geekphreak: yes, stage files too
[15:38] <wyclif_> geekphreak: Ah! the plot thickens...
[15:38] <geekphreak> wyclif_:  you will have to edit the mneu.lst file
[15:38] <wyclif_> geekphreak: I now wonder why my grub didn't update
[15:38] <gunksta> abulu: from our conversation it sounds like apt wants to remove something that you want to keep. Reinstall that package.
[15:38] <pakau> hi people
[15:38] <pirearadu> hy pakau
[15:38] <pakau> i have a question
[15:38] <pakau> :)
[15:38] <pakau> do u know this site ?
[15:39] <pirearadu> what question?
[15:39] <pakau> http://www.getdeb.net/welcome/
[15:39] <abulu> gunksta, I had tryed this, but apt ask me to remove the packages I told u...
[15:39] <pakau> im trying to install a game from there
[15:39] <pirearadu> i kow man
[15:39] <wyclif_> geekphreak: just opened menu.lst with vim
[15:39] <pirearadu> and?
[15:39] <pakau> ok
[15:39] <geekphreak> wyclif_:  ok
[15:39] <abulu> gunksta, if I type "Y" apt will remove
[15:39] <pakau> i installed one
[15:39] <pakau> but now
[15:39] <pakau> im getting a message
[15:39] <pakau> could not find the pakage 'Oad'.
[15:39] <electro_> Has anyone noticed that when "preseeding" an automatic installation of Ubuntu, particularly when an existing drive configuration is present, it asks to confirm the changes to the disk.  I have the proper settings in my preseed to skip this, but it always prompts me.  Has anyone been able to fix this?
[15:39] <peleczek> wyclif when you have a menu on startup does it say 0.97 or 1.96 or something?
[15:40] <wyclif_> peleczek: I'll have to check elsewhere, cos that will require a reboot otherwise ;)
[15:40] <gunksta> abulu: no need to remove anything. ANY apt command will trigger the autoremove message, if there's anything apt wants to auto-remove. if you throw out apt-get instal --reinstall foobar it should reinstall foobar, not remove it.
[15:40] <gunksta> abulu: what's the list of stuff apt wants to remove?
[15:40] <pirearadu> pakau search the executable of game in /usb/bin
[15:40] <gunksta> abulu: and what do you want to keep?
[15:41] <pakau> but i could install it :S
[15:41] <wyclif_> peleczek: I guess I just figured out it's not the most current version of grub
[15:41] <pakau> i just installed and run one
[15:41] <pakau> but now this one
[15:41] <pakau> i cant install :S
[15:41] <pirearadu> pakau what game is it?
[15:41] <geekphreak> wyclif_: you still have that menu.lst open?
[15:41] <pakau> hmm
[15:41] <pakau> wait
[15:41] <peleczek> wyclif_ ok i thought you maybe saw it accidentally and remeber
[15:41] <pirearadu> pakau wait 2 sec
[15:41] <stercor> I'm trying to run winamp under wine.  I compiled it for 64-bit architecture.  Here's the error message: "Trying to load PE image for unsupported architecture (I386)"
[15:41] <wyclif_> geekphreak: yeah
[15:41] <pakau> its O.A.D. !!!
[15:42] <galerien> Gys, someone told me to try sudo dpkg --configure -a ; sudo apt-get install -f to fix my aptitude, but it doesn't work, i get

[16:13] <clutch> oh wait, nevermind, I see the command line install option now
[16:13] <Pici> clutch: Yes, it will be *very* light
[16:13] <Pici> FreezingFriday: No, its been like that for a while.
[16:13] <clutch> Pici: that's the idea.
[16:13] <clutch> even xubuntu comes with too much extra crap for my liking
[16:14] <clutch> its going on a P4 with 216mb RAM
[16:14] <clutch> and a 40 gig HDD

[16:17] <Kentrel> This might not be a linux question, but if I use a magnet link to load a torrent file in windows, how do I then resume that torrent in Ubuntu? I haven't managed to get magnet links to work in ubuntu by clicking on them, like they do in windows

[16:27] <galerien> geekphreak done
[16:27] <napster> Had a silly problem :) My panels disappeared! How can I fix it?
[16:27] <geekphreak> galerien:  look for the php5-sypony package, what is it status?
[16:27] <lifestream> How do I "burn" ubuntu live cd to a  usb stick,  on a distro that doens't come with unetbootin?
[16:28] <geekphreak> soicon:  press alt+f2 type evince, use this to open that file
[16:28] <napster> lifestream, You can use usbcreator
[16:28] <lifestream> oh its available from apt get.
[16:28] <SaintSinner> Slart: "dd if= of=", I need to write values to hdd and start formatting it just after.
[16:28] <galerien> geekphreak doesn't show here, but it's "partialy installed" or something like that....
[16:28] <lifestream> Thats what I meant napster

[16:33] <napster> My panels disappeared! How can I fix it?
[16:33] <miha> napster killall -9 gnome-panel           and it will restart shortly
[16:34] <SaintSinner_> "One of the typical uses is to provide a character stream for overwriting  information", this is needed
[16:34] <napster> miha, No it was not initialized yet from my login!
[16:34] <miha> napster oh
[16:35] <miha> well try starting it this way,its name is   gnome-panel .. it might tell you some error you can google?
[16:35] <napster> miha, I tried apt-get install --reinstall gnome-panel
[16:35] <soicon> geekphreak: I configured efax-gtk to view fax with evince, and now I want evince (or some other doc viewer?) directly send the document as attachment in email, like OOo does.
[16:35] <miha> napster if it helps...    dpkg-reconfigure gnome-panel
[16:35] <napster> miha, Let me try
[16:36] <outer_space> how do you make ati CCC recognize onboard graphics after you add a graphics card?
[16:36] <miha> napster    also    ps -aux | grep gnome-panel     is there one running or not?
[16:36] <_Xion_> hello
[16:36] <DeadmanIncJS> hi xion
[16:36] <jetienne> q. is there a tool which make binary diff on ubuntu ?
[16:37] <phill_> can't  update Ubuntu, Ubuntu Software Centre closes immed. on startup, same for synaptic
[16:37] <geekphreak> soicon:  i am using adobe reader, it give me an option to send document as email
[16:38] <soicon> oh :d really ?, I'll give it a try, hope it work with efax-gtk
[16:38] <mrMax> hi
[16:39] <Readout> hey, i have a strange problem with my laptop. every couple of seconds the speakers make this strange static noise. this happens if the volume is up or down, if i'm using speakers or headphones etc. anyone got any ideas?
[16:39] <DeadmanIncJS> loose wire?
[16:39] <Readout> doesn't make the noise on my windows partition
[16:39] <DeadmanIncJS> weird
[16:40] <DeadmanIncJS> im not very familiar with linux.  just enough to get online and run some apps
[16:40] <DeadmanIncJS> hahah, wouldn't mind learning some programming or something to give back though
[16:40] <Readout> yeah, i'm still in an extended learning period to be honest
[16:40] <Zider> Readout: using just alsa or do you have pulseaudio in the way?
[16:41] <mrMax> I've got a question. Could anybody tell me how to encrypt my Harddisk?
[16:41] <Readout> its a completely standard Ubuntu 9.10 - the problem never showed up when I was on 9.04, and is annoying enough to deter me from using my laptop
[16:41] <geekphreak> mrMax: whole partition, or just $HOME ?
[16:42] <mrMax> whole partition
[16:42] <Zider> I'm not sure when they started infesting it with pulseaudio, but try disabling that..
[16:42] <geekphreak> mrMax: you can use tool like truecrypt , google for it
[16:42] <mrMax> i this were to complicated, just the home partition
[16:42] <theadmin> How does one replace all occurences of x with y using sed?
[16:42] <think_zf_> >help
[16:43] <mrMax> geekphreak: and how to encrypt just Home?
[16:43] <outer_space> sed -e "s/x/y/"
[16:43] <geekphreak> mrMax: it will let you encrypt whole partition too
[16:43] <genjin> Does an exit status of 255 have a specific meaning?
[16:43] <theadmin> -e? o_O
[16:43] <mrMax> then i'll try truecrypt
[16:44] <phill_> anyone heard of software centre closing immed after startup?
[16:45] <geekphreak> phill_: trying to install softwares?
[16:45] <phill_> yes, but just starting up closes after 2 secs...
[16:46] <geekphreak> phill_:  try this >> press alt+f2 , type gksu synaptic, , does it close too?
[16:46] <phill_> um... unfortunately yup
[16:46] <geekphreak> any messages?
[16:47] <Pici> phill_: If you run it from a terminal, do you get errors?
[16:47] <phill_> synaptic?
[16:47] <Pici> phill_: gksudo synaptic
[16:47] <Kentrel> How do I get ubuntu to stop using MoviePlayer to play avi files instead of AVI. Even though I've set VLC as the default, some programs like Vuze will play it using Movie Player
[16:48] <blakkheim> does anyone know what works/doesn't work on the new macbook pros with the 320m/330m?
[16:48] <phill_> yup I get errors....
[16:48] <kim> geekphreak: see properties of the file, theres a tab there
[16:48] <Pici> phill_: Can you paste them to http://paste.ubuntu.com or your favorite pastebin?
[16:48] <geekphreak> kim:  excuse me?
[16:49] <kim> wrong nick, sorry ;)
[16:49] <phill_> last line is KeyError: 'libplayert\x02p2-dev
[16:49] <geekphreak> no worries Kim
[16:49] <kim> Kentrel: see properties of the file, theres a tab there
[16:49] <clutch> lol Just looked at some screenshots of iceWM and realized that its what the point of sale computers at my work use
[16:49]  * clutch shudders
[16:49] <clutch> sticking with flux
[16:50] <Pici> phill_: Unsurprisingly, the entire error is generally more useful ;)
[16:50] <phill_> k, just pasted it to where you suggested.
[16:50] <Pici> phill_: And the link
[16:50] <Pici> ?
[16:51] <geekphreak> lol
[16:51] <Readout> Annoyingly, disabling pulseaudio doesn't stop the noise
[16:51] <geekphreak> phill_: when you paste the error to that site, it gives you a link, paste that link here plz
[16:52] <phill_> sorry, I'm an idiot  http://paste.ubuntu.com/414397/
[16:52] <tropicalpunch> hi i have a simple question. if i were to install karmic koala right now would i be able to upgrade to lucid lynx via download whenever it is out?
[16:52] <H3ct0r> hey all. i was installing lampp and i try to browse localhost with mozilla, but it's not connect. so, how to configure that?
[16:53] <Pici> tropicalpunch: yes.
[16:53] <tropicalpunch> great. thank you
[16:53] <Pici> phill_: Did you recently have any issues booting or shutting down your computer, or a power outage?
[16:54] <phill_> yeah, something along those lines
[16:54] <H3ct0r> how to configure lampp please???
[16:54] <phill_> trying to remember exactly what happened...
[16:54] <theadmin> H3ct0r: Look in .conf files for the Listen directive.
[16:55] <geekphreak> theadmin:  :p
[16:56] <H3ct0r> theadmin, where is it?
[16:56] <geekphreak> Pici: do you think power suge messed up that error ?
[16:57] <theadmin> H3ct0r: I'm unsure... I think, though, that it's somewhere around /etc
[16:57] <phill_> I think the laptop went into hibernate mode and then pressing power button did a full reboot instead of unhibernate. Something along those lines. But I'm fuzzy on the details. Normally, I leave it on all the time. Or, I shutdown and restart...
[16:57] <Pici> geekphreak: It looks like one of apt's cache files was corrupted.  Can you try running: sudo apt-get update    in a terminal.
[16:57] <karma_police> i'm trying to set a program to run when my machine boots up. example: Skype
[16:57] <geekphreak> oh ok
[16:57] <H3ct0r> theadmin, yup i found it. but, i think it's ok. it's look like in windows
[16:57] <theadmin> H3ct0r: is apache even started?
[16:58] <H3ct0r> ya
[16:58] <soicon> phill_: I got the same problem before but... really don't remember the solution . =.=
[16:58] <geekphreak> phill_:  you heard him , open terminal plz, then run run sudo apt-get update
[16:58] <theadmin> H3ct0r: Hm. Strange.
[16:58] <phill_> k
[16:59] <Pici> geekphreak: No need for that, I'm not in a hurry.
[16:59] <geekphreak> Pici: its kool mate, i am still learning :)
[17:00] <phill_> k, done
[17:00] <theadmin> karma_police: Look into crontabs, /etc/init and System - Preferences - Startup Apps
[17:00] <fasta> How can I change the name of an USB key?
[17:00] <Pici> phill_: Any errors?
[17:00] <H3ct0r> theadmin, i was extract it in /opt and when i start that program, it's run. but when i try to connect localhost. it's not work
[17:00] <geekphreak> Pici:  learning a lot from you , thank you :)
[17:00] <fasta> That is instead of <BRANDNAME> get something like MY_DISK_NAME?
[17:00] <theadmin> H3ct0r: You sure it works? Try "pgrep httpd"
[17:01] <phill_> no errors. Ubuntu Software Centre  seems to be up and hasn't abandoned on me yet. So, it looks good. Thanks a whole bunch guys.
[17:01] <Pici> phill_: yay, good to hear.
[17:01] <geekphreak> phill_:  awesome :)
[17:02] <phill_> any ideas why?
[17:02] <Draggin> Good evening.  I haven't done this in a while, and I'm wondering if someone could refresh my memory... Can one change the sizes of existing partitions?  Specifically NTFS partitions. I want to install Ubuntu on a Compaq prebuilt computer with XP pre-installed on it, but I don't necessarily want to remove XP.  I'd like a dual boot system, but the entire partition is consumed by the XP NTFS partition...
[17:02] <theadmin> fasta: System -> Admininstration -> Disk Utility
[17:02] <mrMax> and how can I encrypt the partition using Truekrypt?
[17:02] <H3ct0r> theadmin, it's result : 8112, 8220, 8264, 8265, 8266, 8267, 8268
[17:02] <theadmin> Draggin: gparted...
[17:02] <theadmin> H3ct0r: Hm. So you were right. No idea then.
[17:02] <karma_police> I have Startup Applications Preferences GUI open. I am trying to add a Skype instance so it will load when i reboot my machine.
[17:02] <geekphreak> mrMax:  , when it is installed, start it up , it will guide you step by step ,
[17:02] <Draggin> theadmin - okay... But I don't have Ubuntu installed yet...
[17:02] <pyMitch> gparted is clearer i think
[17:02] <iromli> H3ct0r: 'sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start' to initiate the webserver
[17:02] <theadmin> Draggin: You need just a livecd
[17:02] <Readout> Draggin: the Ubuntu livecd will manage it all for you
[17:03] <Draggin> theadmin - okay... Didn't know the livecd had that...
[17:03] <theadmin> Draggin: Also defrag your ntfs partition before resizing or you'll end up with buncha errors
[17:03] <H3ct0r> iromli, ya. i was done
[17:03] <fasta> theadmin, that user-interface is really bad.
[17:03] <Draggin> So in other words, I can resize the NTFS partition in gparted without losing data?
[17:03] <mrMax> geekphreak: I started it, but now? What to do?
[17:03] <pyMitch> the livecd has everything pretty much
[17:03] <fasta> theadmin, I see all kinds of fields, but I cannot change them, probably because it is mounted.
[17:03] <Readout> Draggin: just make sure you defrag etc first
[17:03] <pyMitch> lol
[17:03] <geekphreak> mrMax:  read the documentation man :) , it is pretty straight forward
[17:04] <fasta> theadmin, but a user shouldn't need to care about that and the UI should inform the user that _because_ it is mounted it cannot be changed.
[17:04] <Draggin> Readout - defrag etc... What else should I do other than defrag?
[17:04] <theadmin> fasta: I am not responsible for this UI.
[17:04] <theadmin> Draggin: defrag and run chkdsk on it and you're all set
[17:04] <Readout> Draggin: standard disk utility checks. check for errors, defrag and so on
[17:04] <iromli> H3ct0r: and what localhost returns?
[17:04] <fasta> theadmin, © 2008 Red Hat, Inc.
[17:04] <theadmin> fasta: huh wha
[17:04] <Draggin> theadmin, Readout, thanks very much :) Lemme go see if I can manage this...
[17:04] <mrMax> geekphreak: I started reading. Could any bad thing happen, if i misconfigure something?
[17:04] <Draggin> Ciao!
[17:04] <Readout> listen to theadmin, he uses better words than i do
[17:04] <fasta> theadmin, (they wrote it, apparently)
[17:05] <H3ct0r> theadmin, iromli. thanks. it's was run. but i dunno how?
[17:05] <theadmin> fasta: Oh.
[17:05] <geekphreak> mrMax: is there any data currently on that drive , that ya wana encrypt?
[17:05] <mrMax> yes
[17:06] <theadmin> H3ct0r: Can you connect to "<IP_ADDRESS>" instead of "localhost"?
[17:06] <geekphreak> mrMax:  what i would suggest is , make an empty partition, encrypt it using truecrypt, then put data on it :)
[17:07] <geekphreak> mrMax:  ok? , use an empty partition to encrypt, then put data on it after encryption
[17:07] <mrMax> geekphreak: is there any other way to encrypt the whole Partition
[17:07] <H3ct0r> ya. it's run in localhost or <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:08] <Readout> OK, new twist on my sound problems. The strange click noise stops when I mute and then unmute in Sound Preferences, but returns when I reboot. Turning the volume down to 0 and back up, or muting using the mute button on the keyboard doesn't stop the noise. Any clues?
[17:08] <geekphreak> mrMax:  there is always a way, but it is better to start with empty partition imho, if someone else has better tool that they can  share, go for it :)
[17:08] <theadmin> TrueCrypt is one heck of an awesomeness :D
[17:09] <mrMax> geekphreak: I thougt I could encrypt the whole file system

[17:15] <madjoe> does anyone have huge issues with Namoroka?
[17:15] <Pici> geekphreak: eh?
[17:16] <madjoe> it crashes down on Facebook, Gmail..
[17:16] <NinoScript> How can I mount a disk with other UID and GID? I don't want to use "gksudo nautilus" to navigate it's contents :\
[17:16] <geekphreak> theadmin:  excuse me?
[17:16] <iromli> H3ct0r: if you use lampp, try to look at /opt/lampp/var/mysql
[17:16] <theadmin> geekphreak: How would it matter whether he has LAMP or a pure MySQL?
[17:16] <v0lksman> anyone know how to set a umask for an sftp only account with openssh5.1?
[17:16] <Dr_Willis> NinoScript:  it depends on its filesystem, there is a uid/gid option you can use with the mount command
[17:16] <geekphreak> theadmin:  different path depending where he installed it i think :)
[17:16] <madjoe> what would you recommend me as an alternative for Firefox? Chrome, Chromium, Iron?
[17:17] <CaptainTrek> madjoe: opera :P
[17:17] <madjoe> riight :)
[17:17] <NinoScript> Dr_Willis, it's HFS+ (although I could change it to just HFS so I can also write on it)
[17:17] <geekphreak> iromli: thank you
[17:17] <theadmin> Does XAMPP work well on Ubuntu? It seems better then Ubuntu's LAMP
[17:17] <pyMitch> madjoe: I recommend chrome
[17:17] <clutch> madjoe: w3m  :)
[17:17] <antivirtel> hello all, i cant update from hu.archive.ubuntu.com (maybe offline?) what is the "deb" line of "ftp.fsn.hu" someone know it ?
[17:17] <H3ct0r> Pici, iromli. ok, thanks i've found it.
[17:17] <Dr_Willis> NinoScript:  never used HFS. check the mount man pages for wiaht options apply for HFS+/HFS
[17:17] <madjoe> clutch: Internet Explorer 5.5
[17:18] <madjoe> :)
[17:18] <geekphreak> theadmin:  i install from scratch, much easier setting it up
[17:18] <clutch> lol
[17:18] <Pici> theadmin: No, using XAMPP is not needed at all.
[17:18] <pyMitch> LOL
[17:18] <geekphreak> agrees with Pici
[17:18] <madjoe> pyMitch: how could I install Chrome?
[17:18] <theadmin> Pici: ...Well, okay. Then how the heck do i get PMA anyway?
[17:18] <Readout> madjoe: I hear great things about Flock
[17:18] <theadmin> madjoe: Download from http://chrome.google.com
[17:18] <pyMitch> madjoe: you cannot install via apt or synaptic
[17:18] <madjoe> Readout: Flock? hmm... how well is it supported? :)
[17:18] <Pici> theadmin: pma? You mean phpmyadmin?
[17:18] <theadmin> Pici: yah
[17:18] <Dr_Willis> The latest Opera has some nifty features
[17:19] <geekphreak> theadmin: sudo apt-get install php5 apache3 mysql-server php5-mysql
[17:19] <pyMitch> madjoe: go to google chromes site
[17:19] <Pici> theadmin: Mine is working from the package in the repos.
[17:19] <NinoScript> Dr_Willis, it has "uid=n, gid=n"
[17:19] <geekphreak> theadmin: phpmyadmin too :p
[17:19] <theadmin> Pici: I dunno, i did "sudo tasksel install lamp-server", it installed a ton of stuff but I can't seem to find pma along em
[17:19] <Dr_Willis> NinoScript:  there ya go then. make a fstab entry that has the proper syntax and uid=XXXX for your main user
[17:19] <pyMitch> madjoe: www.google.com/chrome
[17:19] <Pici> theadmin: It may not be part of that task, but the package itself is in the repos.
[17:19] <geekphreak> theadmin:  just type sudo ap-get install phpmyadmin man
[17:20] <pyMitch> madjoe: you still there?
[17:20] <Readout> madjoe: Not brilliantly, only through unofficial sources
[17:20] <theadmin> Pici: I see. Thanks/Arigato/Danke/Merci/Gracias/Спасибо/Whatever else
[17:20] <madjoe> pyMitch: already downloading ;)
[17:20] <Readout> madjoe: Its best points are integration with social networking and compatibility with firefox addons though
[17:20] <madjoe> Readout: I need a stable support for my browser, so I'll go on with Chrome for now
[17:21] <geekphreak> madjoe: firefox is good :)
[17:21] <pyMitch> madjoe: chrome is beta :P
[17:21] <CaptainTrek> madjoe: firefox is most stable, I recommend it over anything else.  STRONGLY recommend
[17:21] <geekphreak> i recently started liking konqueror too :p
[17:21] <madjoe> geekphreak: it crashes all the time since 3 days ago
[17:21] <Readout> madjoe: Makes sense. Can't really fault Chrome, although I personally dislike the UI
[17:21] <madjoe> Readout: oh, I love the ui :)
[17:21] <geekphreak> madjoe:  make a new porfile /usr/bin/firefox -ProfileManager
[17:21] <geekphreak> profile*
[17:21] <pyMitch> Readout: the ui is wierd
[17:21] <zaxonspox> what you can say about Opera?
[17:22] <Readout> madjoe: sounds like a good choice then

[17:27] <jwm_> is anyone helpful with compiz?
[17:27] <v0lksman> is there a sticky bit that will enforce a umask on a directory or something?  I need an sftp user to have a certain umask and I can't seem to figure out how to make that happen
[17:27] <NinoScript> Dr_Willis, I want to try it first, where should I put that options? I wrote: mount uid=502 gid=502 /dev/sda2 /mnt/mac, but I think that's not the place for those options
[17:27] <JustEric> When I open VirtualBox (It is already on the USB stick) - I come to an installer. From there - Do I install? Or load live mode?
[17:27] <pyMitch> j_: click options

[17:35] <geekphreak> cya pyMitch :)
[17:35] <strange> hey guys do you know how i can force gdm to use a resoultion for some reason nvidia tool doesnt recognize it but when i plug a simular screen in the same computer it works then i switch the screen that doesnt work and it shows fine in 1980x1200 as well
[17:35] <iadrian> Omg :)
[17:36] <iadrian> I tryed Kubuntu too, since i heard that it uses a different sound system... nothing :)
[17:36] <pyMitch> strange: I am not using gdm on this computer but, could you plug the smaller screen in and login
[17:37] <CaptainTrek> strange: if the smaller screen doesn't officially support that resolution, that might be the issue, even if it can show it
[17:37] <strange> pyMitch: its not a smaller screen they are exactly the same heh
[17:37] <pyMitch> strange: oh..
[17:37] <Losha> Eighteens: I know nothing about the issue, but I see lots of discussion on google under "ubuntu sound on the HP DV6"
[17:37] <pyMitch> strange: your best bet is in screen settings (I think thats what it is listed as)
[17:38] <strange> nope it only lists up to like 640x480
[17:38] <strange> which is no fun on 26"
[17:38] <pyMitch> strange: go to system>preferences>
[17:38] <pyMitch> umm
[17:38] <strange> can i force it in xorg.conf maybe?
[17:38] <pyMitch> strange: are you sure you have the right driver?
[17:39] <strange> if i boot with the other screen hooked up and then switch screens it works perfectly
[17:39] <strange> the other screen works 100% and is the exact same one so i guess driver is fine
[17:39] <pyMitch> strange: are they different model screens?
[17:39] <strange> nope
[17:39] <pyMitch> strange: Oh.. could be a faulty screen?
[17:40] <brontosaurusrex> when running 'kate' text editor on gnome, what could be the reason that ctrl+z is not working?
[17:40] <strange> only on bootup then which is what makes it odd, if it wouldnt do the resolution at all that would make sense but it works perfect if i dont boot with it
[17:40] <wyclif_> brontosaurusrex: have you checked the keybindings/mappings?
[17:41] <pyMitch> strange: Could you say that again?
[17:41] <pyMitch> :P
[17:41] <brontosaurusrex> wyclif_: where? in kate or ... ?
[17:41] <h00k> strange: you can try the forums, too, if nobody can help you here
[17:41] <JRid> hi
[17:41] <zaxonspox> strange did you tryed setting higher res. on WinXP?
[17:41] <wyclif_> brontosaurusrex: in Kate
[17:41] <zambaboo> hey guys what was the name of that app that lets you create bookmarks for directories you visit on the console (bash)?
[17:41] <abstrakt> how can i find the size of a folder?
[17:41] <abstrakt> df only gives me the disk stats
[17:41] <zambaboo> abstrakt: du -hcs forldername
[17:41] <pyMitch> strange: Did you mean it does display on boot
[17:41] <JRid> guys why i cant run compiz??
[17:42] <zambaboo> JRid:  why do cows chew grass?
[17:42] <abstrakt> cool thx
[17:42] <zambaboo> abstrakt: np
[17:42] <zaxonspox> JRid do you have video drivers installed?
[17:42] <wyclif_> JRid: does your video card support Compiz? It's resource-intensive for an older computer
[17:42] <JRid> y
[17:42] <strange> pyMitch: it displays all the way just not at a decent resolution (640x480) max
[17:43] <JRid> maby i meed to reinst?
[17:43] <pyMitch> strange: but the other screen the exact same works higher?
[17:43] <JRid> need :)\
[17:43] <pyMitch> strange: that must be a faulty screen then!
[17:43] <brontosaurusrex> wyclif_: well it says ctrl+
[17:43] <wyclif_> Jrid: have you checked to see if it's turned on in the System/Preferences menu?
[17:43] <brontosaurusrex> wyclif_: ctrl+z
[17:44] <AegNuddel> zambaboo, because they don't chew metal
[17:44] <JRid> ok thanks will look
[17:44] <pyMitch> strange: if the other exact same screen works
[17:44] <wyclif_> brontoaurusrex: Ctrl-Z it is then
[17:44] <pyMitch> strange: it comes down to the hard ware
[17:44] <pyMitch> strange: :)
[17:45] <brontosaurusrex> wyclif_: very interesting ....
[17:45] <pyMitch> strange: send it back to the shop you got it from if it still has return time left
[17:46] <ravigehlot> Hey guy, how do I put a folder inside of Places?
[17:46] <pyMitch> ravigehlot: I do :)
[17:46] <pyMitch> ravigehlot: Open up your file manager
[17:46] <strange> pyMitch: mmkay :)
[17:46]  * wyclif_ is downloading git
[17:46] <strange> i just rebooted again with the other screen attached then when its done booting i switch screens and it works 100%

[17:47] <ravigehlot> pyMitch: nice. thanks you bunches
[17:47] <wyclif_> clutch: maybe just alsa
[17:47] <pyMitch> ravigehlot: Glad i could help :)

When I try to use some of the gz functions such as gzdecode, I am told that it's undefined. What other package or setting do I have to mess with to have these functions working?
[17:49] <brontosaurusrex> kubanc: usually ff 3.6.x was refered as different name, shiretoko or something, so ff3.5 should still be there

[17:51] <strange> zaxonspox: no i dont have any boxes with windows
[17:51] <strange> nor do i have any desire to have one :)
[17:51] <zaxonspox> strange then force add res's in xorg.conf
[17:51] <strange> zaxonspox: have an url to see how?
[17:51] <pyMitch> strange: Hi-5!
[17:52] <Nataniel_PL> http://pokazywarka.pl/msgcdn-2/
[17:52] <wyclif_> well floodbot still works heheheh
[17:53] <kubanc> brontosaurusrex, so, there is no solution to revert package...
[17:53] <zaxonspox> strange mayby try more the cmd: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[17:53] <brontosaurusrex> kubanc: it should be just the matter of editing the repos
[17:54] <wyclif_> it was the damn avahi daemon
[17:55] <Pici> Nataniel_PL: fwiw, its failing here too.
[17:55] <wyclif_> vim + screen + urxvt FTW
[17:56] <eean> how do I use the md5sum.txt file thats in the iso?
[17:56] <moegreen> hey guys i can connect to my network drives, but how do i make it so they automount everytime i boot into my linux partition?
[17:56] <blakkheim> moegreen: fstab
[17:57] <eean> oh well nevermind, doing some checks manually I noticed that vmlinuz isn't correct
[17:57] <moegreen> /etc/fstab ?
[17:57] <wyclif_> moegreen: make sure you read the fstab documentation
[17:57] <moegreen> ok ill read the man pages..thx
[17:57] <Nataniel_PL> Pici: So it's something there and I can olnly wait?
[17:58] <antivirtel> hello all, if i've installed an apt-cacher and i rewrote the sources.list to ...<compname>.local and sudo apt-get update writes this: "502  apt-cacher: libcurl error: couldn't connect to host", then what can i check ?
[17:58] <Pici> Nataniel_PL: I assume so. You could try asking in #cedega, but I don't know how active it is there.
[17:58] <sipior> eean: try the "-c" switch for the md5sum command. feed it the sums file, and it should check them for you.
[17:58] <thehumanelement> Why does Evince now open every damn document small
[17:58] <thehumanelement> and also keeps opening the thumbnails bar on the side
[17:58] <thehumanelement> please?
[17:58] <Nataniel_PL> Pici: Ok, thx
[17:59] <thehumanelement> I'm using 10.04 Beta 2

[17:59] <sorsis> my gnome moves windows if "alt+mouseclick" how do i disable this feature?
[17:59] <Nataniel_PL> Btw., did any of you ran Unreal Tournament 3 somehow? I've payed for that, and I'm really disapointed ;(
[17:59] <sorsis> i want "alt+mouseclick" be transfered to Diablo II instead.
[18:00] <pyMitch> thehumanelement: this channel isn't for Beta releases of Ubuntu
[18:00] <h00k> Nataniel_PL: that would be more suited to #ubuntu-offtopic discussion
[18:00] <Nataniel_PL> h00k: ok
[18:00] <pyMitch> Nataniel_PL: next time check in the wine app db
[18:00] <pyMitch> Nataniel_PL: I wouldn't count on wine every time
[18:01] <Nedrae> sorsis: Go to the System menu, then Preferences, Windows, and select another movement key
[18:01] <wyclif_> pyMitch: Nataniel_PL has quit
[18:01] <pyMitch> Nataniel_PL: oh... lol
[18:01] <pyMitch> opps

[18:02] <NinoScript> I want to open a folder that has other user's permissions. I can open it with root, but I cannot change the permissions as it is in a readonly fs (in another partition of the same HD as ubuntu) that I am mounting
[18:03] <wyclif_> fiona_: hi
[18:03] <zaxonspox> NinoScript do you mounting a win ntfs partition or what?
[18:03] <NinoScript> zaxonspox, a mac HFS+ partition
[18:04] <erUSUL> NinoScript: no read writte support for hfs+ in linux i'm afraid
[18:04] <wyclif_> lotsa Netherlands traffic tonight :)
[18:04] <jason> #omgkpop
[18:04] <NinoScript> erUSUL, there is read support, but I don't know why I need to be root to be my Mac's home folder :\
[18:05] <NinoScript> to see*
[18:05] <Dr_Willis> NinoScript:  its all about how its mounted with what options.
[18:05] <NinoScript> Dr_Willis, '-o uid=502,gid=502' didn't work
[18:06] <Dr_Willis> NinoScript:  and where did you get the 502 from?
[18:06] <jason> #omgstaff
[18:06] <rogerio> alguem poderia me explicar por favor como configura o partições no conky?
[18:06] <wyclif_> NinoScript: sounds like another user has the file permissions locked down
[18:06] <Dr_Willis> Initial user in ubuntu is 1000 i thought and up from there.
[18:06] <kannan_><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[18:06] <Dr_Willis> $ echo $UID
[18:06] <Dr_Willis> 1000
[18:06] <AegNuddel> dang
[18:07] <AegNuddel> no way!
[18:07] <jpds> kannan_: Way to get spammed. ;)
[18:07] <AegNuddel> I got one of these for $4! http://www.pacificgeek.com/product.asp?c=225&s=1301&ID=39268&P=F
[18:07] <fabio_> hello
[18:07]  * wyclif_ prefers Python
[18:07] <alset> i've always had audio issues with my laptop, but this time, the login bongo drums sounds, but after that, i can't get any sound from the speakers (or headphones). nothing but video card drivers appears in the Hardware Drivers program. any suggestions?
[18:07] <fabio_> anyone know what wireless adaptor comes with Targa Traveller 826W MT3 ?
[18:07] <fabio_> its atheros?
[18:08] <Pici> AegNuddel: What does that have to do with Ubuntu?
[18:08] <JEDIDIAH__> what's the problem child laptop?
[18:09] <AegNuddel> Pici, I need to calibrate it
[18:09] <pyMitch> fabio_: Check on their support site
[18:09] <NinoScript> Dr_Willis, that's what it says in MacOSX that my user is, and the folder I cannot open without being root in Ubuntu, when I see permisions, says User 502, Group Dialout
[18:09] <FoolishOwl> I have apache2 installed. I notice that httpd.conf is a 0-length file, instead of the long, thoroughly commented file I'd expect. How can I check Apache's settings?
[18:09] <wyclif_> it will be super cool if the LXDE project gets integrated and adopted by Ubuntu (as they suggest it will be)
[18:09] <Dr_Willis> NinoScript:  If you are mounting it IN linux/Ubuntu - you want your Linux USERS uid/gid. not the mac users uid/gid
[18:09] <Pici> wyclif_: See the lubuntu-desktop metapackage.
[18:10] <pyMitch> you can install it manually
[18:10] <JEDIDIAH__> ...you also want to see names rather than numbers.
[18:10] <Dr_Willis> NinoScript:  try uid=1000   perhaps.
[18:10] <wyclif_> Pici: yes, I am looking forward to downloading lubuntu-desktop later tonight
[18:10] <AegNuddel> Pici, jscalibrate? Is that right?
[18:10] <zaxonspox> FoolishOwnl apache2.conf
[18:11] <Pici> AegNuddel: It sounds familiar, but I haven't used it myself.
[18:11] <NinoScript> Dr_Willis, just in case, I already tried that, didn't work
[18:11] <Dr_Willis> NinoScript:  time to check the forums for HFS+ ussage I guess. I use uid=1000 or umask options for  ntfs/vfat all the time.
[18:11] <AegNuddel> Pici, ok
[18:12] <dajhorn> FoolishOwl: Look in the *.d directories in the /etc/apache2 folder, especially the conf.d directory.  Ubuntu breaks-out the Apache configuration.
[18:13] <gunksta> livirt users - what should my permissions be on /var/lib/libvirt/images (owner, group)
[18:15] <wyclif_> what are the best #python IRC channels for people getting started?
[18:15] <Pici> wyclif_: Best to ask in #python
[18:15] <Dr_Willis> getting started in python. would be a good idea to track down a few tutorials/books :)
[18:16] <aneesh1> hi all . is it have 2 users with the same home directory.?
[18:17] <jijutm> hi a cli application I got from the internet works in my home machine but not on the colocated machine.. I doubt it as shared libs.. is there any tool to identify the libs that is being used by a binary app
[18:17] <aneesh1> hi all is it possible to have 2 users with the same home directory.
[18:17] <jijutm> @aneesh1: it is tricky.. but possible
[18:17] <zaxonspox> aneesh1 it might be possible, but shouldnt be done
[18:17] <mguy> aneesh1: Change user1's home dir to user2's home dir and see what happens
[18:17] <pyMitch> aneesh1: why do you want that?
[18:17] <mguy> What is your reason for wanting to do this?
[18:17] <JEDIDIAH__> 2 users, one home directory... probably not. Probably more trouble than you're willing to tolerate.
[18:18] <Elfix> anyway you'd have some things to fix with chmod then, aneesh1
[18:18] <JEDIDIAH__> libs for an app? ldd <my-binary>
[18:18] <jijutm> lett me try now
[18:18] <pyMitch> aneesh1: I recommend creating a sym link in one users home directory to create a universal folder
[18:18] <wyclif> Pici: I am also a newbie to irssi, for some reason I can't join that channel using /join
[18:18] <aneesh1> @pyMitch: I need to provide ftp access for 2 users to one directory
[18:18] <aneesh1> is there any way?
[18:18] <zaxonspox> aneesh1 what do you want to achive?
[18:19] <Pici> wyclif: You need to be registered and identified to join
[18:19] <Pici> !register | wyclif
[18:19] <iSUKatLINUX> hey zax
[18:19] <iSUKatLINUX> hey zaxonspox
[18:19] <wyclif> Pici: ubottu: thanks!
[18:19] <mguy> aneesh1: Read the documentations for your ftp server
[18:19] <zaxonspox> iSUKatLINUX hi, yes?
[18:20] <JEDIDIAH__> define a group and have both of the users in it. Have a 3rd location the group has access to.
[18:20] <arthurjohnson> aneesh1: Thats easy actually
[18:20] <wyclif> !register | wyclif
[18:20] <arthurjohnson> aneesh1: Just create a group and put both users in it.  Change grouop ownership to said group, then set the directory to 0770 permissions.
[18:20] <wyclif> ubottu: thanks
[18:21] <arthurjohnson> ubottu: Robots need love too
[18:21] <aneesh1> @arthurjohnson: How?
[18:21] <iSUKatLINUX> zaxonspox: i was g33kergRRL yesterday
[18:21] <Bilge> derp
[18:21] <pyMitch> wyclif: what was it?
[18:21] <iSUKatLINUX> zaxonspox: can you help me wiht this "The playback of this movie requires a XVID MPEG-4 decoder plugin which is not installed"
[18:21] <zaxonspox> iSUKatLINUX ok, and what was the prob. yesterday?
[18:21] <pyMitch> ubottu: You are intelligent
[18:22] <pyMitch> ubottu: In a dumb way
[18:22] <iSUKatLINUX> ubottu: intelli r u
[18:22] <iSUKatLINUX> har har
[18:22] <pyMitch> Lol
[18:22] <JEDIDIAH__> if the totem auto-codec-downloader is not giving you any joy, just install VLC and run that instead.
[18:22] <pyMitch> :)
[18:22] <dos123> ...
[18:22] <JEDIDIAH__> xine or mplayer should do fine as well.

[18:23] <JEDIDIAH__> VLC - how to play just about any video file on any OS (even MacOS)
[18:23] <arthurjohnson> aneesh1: You will have to work with the tools your comfortable with.  The easiest way is with the user manager, then use nautilus to set the permissions.
[18:23] <iSUKatLINUX> zaxonspox:  Okay, I got a puzzle: I installed ubuntu 904 but it gave me no sound. Then I RAN, not install ubuntu 8, and i can play mp3s just fine, but now it says "The playback of this movie requires a XVID MPEG-4 decoder plugin which is not installed", when i try to play AVI
[18:23] <pyMitch> i wish gnome had kde's style and amarok :(
[18:23] <LzrdKing> i was about to say that VLC made me install codecs the other day, but i thikn it was totem
[18:23] <iSUKatLINUX> i'm running ubu8 of the cd now
[18:23] <JEDIDIAH__> totem does the auto install thing...
[18:24] <AegNuddel> jscal says missing device name
[18:24] <JEDIDIAH__> the other players just pull everything in at once.
[18:24] <wyclif> wow
[18:24] <Kentrel> Hi, I want to be able to mount all my drives automatically when I log in with my main user account, but only that account. Any other users have to enter the administrator password. How do I do that
[18:24] <LuisV>  /join #ubuntu-es
[18:24] <dos123> no
[18:24] <pyMitch> admin passwords is windows
[18:24] <iSUKatLINUX> LuisV: ke bueno!
[18:25] <arthurjohnson> aneesh1:  I'm sorry I can't be more specific, right now I'm using a ubuntu server install with xfce, don't have Ubuntu Desktop loaded where I am.
[18:25] <nineclass> ^^
[18:25] <zaxonspox> iSUKatLINUX did you installed required gstreamer0 ... plugins?
[18:25] <iSUKatLINUX> in ub9, yes
[18:25] <nineclass> ><
[18:25] <jwm--canada> my machine is not using the proper kernel.  how do i edit the grub process to get it to?
[18:25] <nineclass> any body here me?
[18:26] <dos123> none of us
[18:26] <nineclass> lol
[18:26] <pyMitch> jwm--canada: It depends
[18:26] <hp> IHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHI
[18:26] <soreau> jwm--canada: You might want to explain you've upgraded from 9.04 -> 9.10 and it's still using the 2.6.28 kernel
[18:26] <pyMitch> jwm--canada: is it grub2?
[18:26] <hp> HAW ARE U
[18:26] <iSUKatLINUX> zaxonspox: my choice is between getting Ubu9 to play sounds, or getting ubu80 to play avi, i think i'll go for the latter
[18:26] <hp> ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLOO
[18:26] <jwm--canada> soreau names the problem correctly -- thanks
[18:26] <soreau> ! hi | hp
[18:26] <hp> SLT
[18:26] <pyMitch> jwm--canada: oh its grub legacy
[18:26] <hp> CAVA
[18:27] <zaxonspox> iSUKatLINUX on laptop or what?
[18:27] <soreau> pyMitch: Yea but it's chain loading to grub2
[18:27] <jwm--canada> pymitch -- i'll trust you opn that -- do you have advice?
[18:27] <hp> HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHI
[18:27] <soreau> hp: That's enough
[18:27] <erUSUL> hp: stop
[18:27] <pyMitch> soreau: Oh okay
[18:27] <JEDIDIAH__> ....I dunno. Canada's situation is one of those where if you are qualified to pull the trigger then you should be able to get the shotgun out of the gun cabinet yourself.
[18:27] <pyMitch> i wish gnome had kde's style and amarok :
[18:27] <soreau> ! grub2 | jwm--canada
[18:27] <iSUKatLINUX> zaxonspox: no on a dell pc
[18:28] <spidy> SysInfo: uname: Linux 2.6.31-14-generic Distro: DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
[18:28] <spidy> : 1920x1080 (32 bpp) Netinfo: eth0: In: 5.43M Out: 0.23M
[18:28] <iSUKatLINUX> zaxonspox: so, at first i thought it was the hardware, but it clearly isn't
[18:28] <spidy> yay..
[18:28] <spidy> :)
[18:28] <FloodBot3> spidy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:28] <jwm--canada> should i just install karmic fresh from a USB key?
[18:28] <xangua> jwm--canada: should you or you want to¿¿
[18:29] <wyclif> pyMitch: well, you can always just run Amarok and GNOME, but that's not very cohesive UX-wise, I admit...
[18:29] <jwm--canada> it's a new computer, no data to worry about.  i just want to get things right from the beginning and if a litle back track is necessary, so be it
[18:29] <soreau> jwm--canada: That is an option if you don't feel like fixing this.. it would use grub2 exclusively and probably work
[18:29] <pyMitch> wyclif: Yeh, and perforance impact on loading tqt
[18:29] <wyclif> hi ! | _TonyStark_
[18:30] <_TonyStark_> wyclif hi there
[18:30] <jwm--canada> that's within my capability
[18:30] <soreau> jwm--canada: Right now, you have grub1 chainloading grub2 and it seems to not have installed the kernels right
[18:30] <zaxonspox> iSUKatLINUX install gstreamer with ffmpeg
[18:30] <wyclif> pyMitch yes, not exactly a snappy load time
[18:30] <soreau> the kernel entries, anyway
[18:30] <iSUKatLINUX> zaxonspox: ooooh, i really did that
[18:30] <iSUKatLINUX> no dice
[18:30] <Apachez> is it possible to force to reinstall all currently installed packages ?
[18:30] <jwm--canada> would the kernel mismatch explain some pretty sluggish performance?
[18:31] <soreau> Apachez: That would effectively accomplish nothing
[18:31] <soreau> Apachez: What problem are you having?
[18:31] <zaxonspox> iSUKatLINUX can VLC handle mpeg4?
[18:31] <JEDIDIAH__> do you have a WD Green drive Canada?
[18:31] <Apachez> its not me
[18:31] <wyclif> it was the avahi daemon that did it this time
[18:31] <Apachez> but im helping someone who have done something f**ked up with his system and want to reinstall all packages (without doing it ALL from the scratch)
[18:31] <iSUKatLINUX> zaxonspox: nut sure i;; check
[18:31] <iceroot> Apachez: that will kill your system
[18:32] <JEDIDIAH__> VLC pretty much handles it all...
[18:32] <jwm--canada> jedediah, i don't know what that is, so i guess not
[18:32] <Apachez> aptitude reinstall '~i'          is supposed to do that
[18:32] <xangua> iSUKatLINUX: what's your problem¿¿
[18:32] <Apachez> but that whines about intermediate something...
[18:32] <iSUKatLINUX> xangua:   Okay, I got a puzzle: I installed ubuntu 904 but it gave me no sound. Then I RAN, not install ubuntu 8, and i can play mp3s just fine, but now it says "The playback of this movie requires a XVID MPEG-4 decoder plugin which is not installed", when i try to play AVI
[18:32] <JEDIDIAH__> WD Green Drives can be a performance killer because they LIE about what they are for legacy WinXP support reasons.
[18:33] <NinoScript> ok, I'm going for the other solution… change my ubuntu uid :D
[18:33] <jwm--canada> not my issue--thanks for your help soreau
[18:33] <xangua> iSUKatLINUX: why don't you use karmic koala¿¿
[18:33] <JEDIDIAH__> They are newer hard drives with a larger physical block size.
[18:33] <xangua> iSUKatLINUX: have you installed restricted extras¿¿
[18:34] <Sa[i]nT> Is there anyway to do like the wubi thing but with another linux version?

[18:34] <iSUKatLINUX> xangua:   I  just would like help to play avis in ubuntu 8. but it says "The playback of this movie requires a XVID MPEG-4 decoder plugin which is not installed", when i try to play AVI
[18:34] <JEDIDIAH__> If you don't handle them just right you end up with performance problems.  I like the wubi thing, can I do it?
[18:35] <guntbert> xangua: your question marks are upside down :-)
[18:35] <xangua> iSUKatLINUX: i have already asked you if you have restricted extras installed; but with that attitude you can get help from here
[18:36] <soreau> Sa[i]nT: wubi is for installing ubuntu from/in windows
[18:36] <pyMitch> Sa[i]nT: you can't
[18:36] <pyMitch> Sa[i]nT: but
[18:36] <soreau> ! wubi | Sa[i]nT
[18:36] <xangua> guntbert: yes, i have a latin-american keyboard

[18:37] <AegNuddel> oops
[18:38] <zer0her0> zaxonspox: from tar
[18:38] <iSUKatLINUX> good, i love ignore
[18:38] <zer0her0> Pici: it runs fine if i cd into the directory
[18:38] <zaxonspox> zer0her0 then you could run it from every where, why putting it to /bin?
