[17:35] <firecrotch> LastExyle: A script that runs at login that runs the following command: at now + 1 hour /sbin/shutdown
[17:35] <bankix> th0r: Hi.
[17:35] <dumont> THE # OF OPEN FILES ALLOWED
[17:36] <dumont> open files                      (-n) 1024
[17:36] <firecrotch> LastExyle: or /sbin/reboot
[17:36] <LastExyle> firecrotch: thanks. pardon the newbie question, but where would I put such a script?
[17:36] <kad> dumont,  ulimit -SH 1024 maybe
[17:36] <chillitom> guys how do i get ubuntu to recognise all 4 cores/threads of my Nehalem?  I've installed the SMP server kernel but it still only reports one core
[17:36] <JonathanEllis> firecrotch: If you man shutdown you will get options for that command
[17:36] <perturbed> :(
[17:36] <natewiebe13> i had nvidia 190 drivers installed in jaunty, i removed them, and now  it keeps trying to look for the 190 drivers, how do i get it to go back to the nv drivers?
[17:37] <edbian> userone: What command yields: "permissions not determined" ??
[17:37] <pepperjack> chillitom: is that with the 64 bit or 32 bit kernel?
[17:37] <natewiebe13> anyone know how to reset the nvidia drivers?
[17:38] <dumont> kad HEY! damn you, you changed filesize to 1024, not open file #
[17:38] <chillitom> pepperjack, 64 bit
[17:38] <pepperjack> chillitom: cat /proc/cpuinfo just shows the one?
[17:38] <dumont> how do I hcange it back to unlimited?
[17:38] <ctmjr> JonathanEllis: if your system is unrecoverable reboot and run this in a terminal sudo apt-get -f install it will try to fix any broken packages
[17:38] <chillitom> pepperjack, yeah
[17:38] <joeyeye> userone: are you using gnome ?
[17:38] <userone> edbian: the hdd icon is on the desktop. i just right click>properties>Permissions tab>'The permissions of disk cannot be detrmined'
[17:38] <edbian> JonathanEllis: You should be alright :)..
[17:39] <edbian> userone: Can you write files in it?
[17:39] <userone> joeyeye: yes
[17:39] <userone> edbian: no
[17:39] <JonathanEllis> ctmjr: edbian: Phew! Thanks.
[17:39] <edbian> userone: There is no entry in it for fstab?  What format is the drive?
[17:39] <edbian> JonathanEllis: NP
[17:40] <edbian> *no entry in fstab for it*
[17:40] <pepperjack> chillitom: odd. sorry man not sure why that is
[17:40] <pepperjack> chillitom: are you dual booting? does windows see it correctly?
[17:41] <chillitom> pepperjack, yuck no.
[17:41] <joeyeye> userone: try this: start gconf-editor and go to /syste/storage/volumes/<your device>/mount_options and add uid=<your uid>, gid=<your gid>, then unmount and remount the volume
[17:41] <chillitom> pepperjack, cheers for listening
[17:41] <edbian> chillitom: Does the very though of dual-booting gross you out? ha ha ha
[17:41] <pepperjack> chillitom: heh. maybe try a couple livecds. the arch livecd or something :(
[17:41] <chillitom> edbian, indeed it does
[17:41] <userone> edbian: when i formatted the hdd to ext3 there was a file 'lost+found' created automatically, which I have not seen on the external hdd before. it has a padlock (locked) top right hand corner and a box with an 'X' in it on the bottom right hand corner. no entry in fstab. the drive is ext3
[17:42] <userone> joeyeye: let me try....
[17:42] <Roland> Which virtual machine to use for running windowsXp under ubuntu?
[17:43] <JonathanEllis> Roland: I use virtualbox
[17:43] <edbian> userone: That "lost+found" file is on all ext3 volumes.  It is used by the system for recovery from power outages and such.  It is owner by root and you don't have permissions to write it which is why those icons are on it.  That is fine.  Try what joeyeye said ^ ^
[17:43] <lstarnes> Roland: virtualbox is one of the most popular virtual machines, but there are also others such as kvm, qemu, and xen
[17:43] <lstarnes> Roland: also, many windows programs can be run using wine
[17:44] <userone> joeyeye: there is no folder 'volumes' only deafult_options
[17:44] <Roland> lstarnes, I tried wine, no luck
[17:44] <joeyeye> userone: is this external hdd  ?
[17:44] <JonathanEllis> Roland: Although I have found most of the windows programmes I want to run dont run in Wine! :-(
[17:44] <edbian> joeyeye: It is
[17:44] <joeyeye> userone: usb ?
[17:44] <userone> joeyeye: yes..a freecom 120gb hdd used to be formatted to ntfs
[17:45] <perturbed> can i open an image file in terminal ?
[17:45] <edbian> perturbed: You can open an image file with an image view "from" a terminal but you cannot use the terminal to view images.
[17:45] <joeyeye> userone: if it automounts, there s/b an entry there below default_options
[17:45] <Roland> JonathanEllis, does virtualbox work ok? printers, internet, have access to other folders in ubuntu host?
[17:45] <userone> joeyeye: yes..usb mounted automativally after formatting but with no permissions. have been stuck ever since!
[17:45] <edbian> image viewer* "from" a terminal
[17:45] <perturbed> edbian: how do i ?
[17:45] <perturbed> i get into the directory of the pictures
[17:46] <perturbed> and then
[17:46] <edbian> perturbed: I forget the name of the programs but it's just "image-viewer /path/to/file"
[17:46] <userone> joeyeye: i have hfs...iso9660..ntfs...ntfs-3g..udf...vfat
[17:46] <perturbed> okay
[17:46] <prince_jammys> perturbed: name_of_prog filename, eg 'display kitties.jpg', if you have imagemagick installed.
[17:46] <perturbed> ok ok
[17:46] <edbian> perturbed: Or use relative paths: "image-viewer picture.jpg"
[17:46] <joeyeye> userone: what is it mount as (filesystem)
[17:46] <perturbed> thanks
[17:46] <perturbed> i'll try
[17:46] <mib_mib> Can someone suggest a mail program to use? All i want is so that the MAILTO in the crontab will send me a message, what mail program can I Apt-Get?
[17:46] <edbian> perturbed: [tab] is a handy feature :)
[17:47] <perturbed> edbian: i know
[17:47] <perturbed> :D
[17:47] <Xerran2> How do you found out if your Ubuntu installation is x86 or x64?
[17:47] <edbian> Xerran2: "uname -a" and look at your kernel
[17:47] <userone> joeyeye: under the 'volume' tab it says mount point /media/disk filesystem ext3
[17:47] <JonathanEllis> Roland: I like it. Internet is fine, provided you install Guest Additions. I haven't tried printing from it but I understand Guest Additions maps the to CUPS (the linux printing system) so that should be OK. You can control what linux folders are visible to your guest OS. I have a single shared folder
[17:48] <lstarnes> Xerran2: or uname -m
[17:48] <Xerran2> edbian, is there a command to get there?
[17:48] <edbian> Xerran2: That is the command: "uname -a"
[17:48] <Xerran2> ahh ok
[17:48] <Roland> JonathanEllis, ok, thanks for your help
[17:48] <Xerran2> thank you very much
[17:48] <edbian> Xerran2: NP
[17:48] <Darxus> What file stores evoloution account preferences?  rm -r ~/.evolution and rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/evolution didn't do it.
[17:48] <joeyeye> userone: nothing in fstab for that disk ?
[17:49] <userone> joeyeye: mount options...rw nosuid nodev errors=continue data=ordered
[17:49] <edbian> userone: the "nosuid" is the issue ;)
[17:50] <joeyeye> userone: comment out everything related to that disk in fstab, save, exit, unmount then physically disconnect and reconnect the usb drive
[17:50] <perturbed> crap .. not working
[17:50] <perturbed> lol
[17:50] <JonathanEllis> Xerran2: Try this http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2768/ubuntu_what_version_am_i_running/

[17:50] <edbian> perturbed: You just have to figure out the name of an image viewer
[17:50] <userone> joeyeye: let me try..
[17:51] <perturbed> its not image viewer itself  :O
[17:51] <joeyeye> userone: it should automount automagically

[17:52] <perturbed> prince_jammys: okay ..
[17:52] <prince_jammys> perturbed: that's if you have "eye of gnome". try it
[17:52] <Gc85> somebody help me

[17:53] <perturbed> prince_jammys: getting into the directory necessary ?
[17:53] <JonathanEllis> !ask
[17:53] <ctmjr> JonathanEllis: what happened when you ran sudo apt-get -f install?
[17:53] <edbian> Xerran2: I don't understand the joke?  You probably have a 686 processor
[17:53] <prince_jammys> perturbed: either that, or use the full pathname of the file.

[17:54] <prince_jammys> perturbed: but you might not have eog installed. you can try also 'display yourfile.jpg' , for example. "display" is part of the imagemagick package, which you might have installed.

[17:58] <Mr_hide> anyone know how to install a compiz plugin that has a CMakeList.txt file? running into many problems with this. using jaunty and latest copmiz
[17:58] <prince_jammys> perturbed: each command dictates how it's supposed to be invoked, so you can't assume  'progname filename' is going to always do what you want. but most gui programs accept the filename to view/modify as a single argument.
[17:59] <einb> userone: If your using grub (probably) I'd double-check the menu.lst file. That's the only other place I've seen the UUID info referenced.
[17:59] <FirstSgt> i'm fairly new to linux and I am just wondering the best application to take a home-made dvd (mpeg4 - no regions/encryption/etc) and rip to a format I can place on youtube?

[18:00] <prince_jammys> FirstSgt: unless you want a commandline app, in which case mencoder or ffmpeg will do.
[18:00] <FirstSgt> prince_jammys: thanks
[18:00] <FirstSgt> prince_jammys: I would only do command line if I intended on automating it with a script :)
[18:01] <prince_jammys> FirstSgt: then check out avidemux and see if it does what you want. i don't know what youtube expects.
[18:01] <nifty> how can i use the shred command to secure erase all the files in a folder?

[18:02] <Chousuke> FirstSgt: the add/remove thing is a simpler frontend to the package manager.

[18:04] <JonathanEllis> nifty: Use man shred to get more info about that command. I havent used shred myself
[18:04] <master> help me please
[18:04] <Kingsy101> it doesnt look right either once you have clicked through to it
[18:04] <Kingsy101> weird
[18:04] <prince_jammys> FirstSgt: it's one of those user-friendlier apps that ends up confusing the user ;)
[18:04] <Kingsy101> it doesnt seem to be transferring from youtube either
[18:05] <Nyquist333> I have 1 GB harddrive that is connected by eSATA. I've formatted it with ext2. I'm using "storage device manager" to mount it. What should I make the root permissions and owner if I want this to be available to any linux OS? This is my offline backup.
[18:05] <perturbed> wonderful :D
[18:05] <ctmjr> master: download the theme open emerald theme manager import theme then go into the dir. you downloaded the theme and click it
[18:05] <Kingsy101> is there some kind of all in one web package you can download for linux ?
[18:05] <dwidmann_> Kingsy101: do you have the flashblock extension installed?
[18:05] <Kingsy101> dwidmann_ - how do I check ?

[18:07] <joeyeye> userone: no
[18:07] <prince_jammys> perturbed: eog somefile.jpg & disown    will make it so that eog is not attached to the invoking terminal, allowing you to close the term without closing eog.
[18:08] <dwidmann_> Kingsy101: maybe it's just certain flash videos then?

[18:09] <joeyeye> userone: can you pastebin your /etc/fstab and also results of sudo fdisk -l

[18:12] <userone1> joeyeye: tried sudo chown userone /media/disk followed by sudo chmod 700 /media/disk, still no change

[18:17] <scunizi> In Network Tools --> Netstat --> Routing Table Information I see under destination <IP_ADDRESS>, no gateway and a netmask of <IP_ADDRESS> on eth0..  Is this something in my system? and if so what/why is it there?
[18:18] <joeyeye> userone1: now pastebin the output of ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid
[18:18] <burkmat> scunizi: 169.254 is assigned when DHCP can't get an addr, to allow computers to communicate over LAN without a DHCP server.
[18:19] <scunizi> burkmat: ok.. so this is a backup address "just in case"?
[18:19] <stephans> Does anyone know hos to get X to properly see the resolution of an attached monitor (Dell 24in)
[18:19] <burkmat> scunizi: Well, sort of, yes. In a way.
[18:19] <sphenxes> I have more than 300 photos which i would like to change to thumbnail photos. what program can do it for me?
[18:19] <scunizi> burkmat: there is another address listed and it's a valid address from the dhcp server
[18:20] <imran> how do I configure hardware acceleration with S3 Savage video card???

[18:20] <scunizi> sphenxes: imagemagick.. it's command line but will handle 300 at one time
[18:20] <JonathanEllis> ctmjr: Unfortunately I cant run sudo apt-get purge <package> as it tells me dpkg was interrupted and I must run sudo dpkg --configure -a to correct the problem. When I do that it hangs at Adding extension /usr/lib/openoffice/basis3.0/program/mailmerge.py  This happens every time I reboot and try this.
[18:21] <sphenxes> scunizi, thanks
[18:21] <scunizi> sphenxes: and it's in the repos
[18:21] <joeyeye> userone1: ok cool. now pastebin ls -l /media
[18:21] <stephans> xrandr gets: 1280x1024      75.0     60.0
[18:21] <burkmat> scunizi: well you were looking at routing tables, right? so basically the 169.254 line says that "if someone on your network has a 169.254 address and you need to talk to them, there's no gateway since it's local".
[18:21] <stephans> with is not right
[18:21] <imran> how do I configure hardware acceleration with S3 Savage video card????

[18:22] <GPL> how to switch to ubuntu , from windows, without a Blank CD, is there any way or Hope through USB drive ?
[18:22] <Yanick_> hi, is the tsclient broken? I recentrly moved back from Kubuntu to Ubuntu and I'm trying to connect to a remote WIndows server machine with the tsclient package, but after I click on "connect" nothing happens. The program is still running, but no window opens, like if it was waiting for something, but there's nothing to see
[18:23] <scunizi> burkmat: ok.. that makes sense.. then the person with 169.254 would possibly have had an issue getting an IP from the DHCP server and they defaulted to that as a backup?
[18:23] <burkmat> scunizi: Precisely. :)
[18:23] <scunizi> burkmat: the fog is lifting :)  thanks!

[18:26] <yihao_> Hi. My NetworkManager Applet isn't showing any Wireless connection, but I am connected right now to a wireless connection. What's going on? Do I need to configure it somehow to identify my devices? This is not made by default? I really want it to work, thanks.
[18:26] <GPL> is there a way around, i am really curious to know..
[18:26] <Deiu> I'm not even sure which glx package to use.
[18:26] <JonathanEllis> Deiu: What are you trying to config it to do? Anything fancy?
[18:26] <ctmjr> JonathanEllis: well lets see if synaptic-package-manager can fix it open it up on the bottom it has package info do you see anything for broken?
[18:26] <Brazz> imran: for what I have read it mentions that old S3 graphic cards have no hardware acceleration
[18:27] <imran> brazz, I found one - it says for AMD chipsets, which is what im using, but when i run the 1st command it says "E: Couldn't find package linux-image-2.6.12-10-k7"
[18:27] <Deiu> JonathanEllis, Nope, just have the acceleration work.
[18:27] <Brazz> imran: but that you can fake it
[18:27] <JonathanEllis> ctmjr: Synaptic wont run. It tells me to do sudo dpkg --configure
[18:27] <Deiu> JonathanEllis, nvidia-xconf fails
[18:27] <imran> brazz how?
[18:28] <ltcabral> how do i assassinate a TIME_WAIT in port 749??
[18:28] <userone1> joeyeye: yes..i can see it on the hdd. however, the permissions tab still says 'permissions cannot be determined'. thats just a minor bug now, right?
[18:28] <JonathanEllis> Deiu: Sorry, I cant help you with that
[18:28] <Deiu> np
[18:29] <ctmjr> JonathanEllis: you cannot even open synaptic?
[18:29] <JonathanEllis> ctmjr: As soon as I open synaptic it tells me to manually do sudo dpkg --configure -a
[18:29] <Brazz> imran: I dont know
[18:29] <Brazz> imran: gonna check
[18:29] <joeyeye> userone1: check the path in gconf-editor again /system/storage/volumes/<your device>/mount_options
[18:30] <imran> brazz thanks so much ")
[18:30] <joeyeye> userone1: my usb drives say that too in the permissions tab - had never notice tha before...
[18:31] <userone1> joeyeye: nothing has changed in the gcong-editor path, still no 'volumes' but i think your simple solution of physically disconnecting and reconnecting must have done something
[18:31] <dwidmann_> Ooooh, I fixed one of my problems. ... Downgraded dbus & hal to jaunty release :) Now the Keyboard & Mouse work again! Yay!

[18:40] <c3o> brother... any ubuntu server for free
[18:40] <userone1> i think momo has left now, but for anyone else who is interested, her a link to an article by IBM on Ext4: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-ext4/
[18:40] <imran> yihao, I had that problem the first time... Try right click / edit connections, add a connection, enable and then disable the 2 check boxes on the 1st page, apply, and delete the connection.
[18:40] <imran> yihao_, if that doesnt help i dont know what to do
[18:40] <imran> Well. ANYWAYS,how do I configure hardware acceleration with S3 Savage video card?
[18:41] <userone1> and the history of it: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-anatomy-ext4/index.html?ca=dgr-lnxw07Anatomy-of-ext4&S_TACT=105AGX59&S_CMP=grsitelnxw07
[18:42] <yihao_> imran, the interesting point is: when I left-click the networkmanager system tray icon, it shows me in wireless connections: device not managed. actually this appears on wired connections as well.
[18:42] <c3o> need configuration server for ubuntu 8.10
[18:43] <yihao_> that's why I think it's a problem of configuring somehow to detect and manage my wireless device. which I don't know how to do.
[18:43] <userone1> ok....now that joeyeye has got me all up and running again...i have 120gb of files to back up! have fun! bye
[18:43] <MarkG> Hi, how do I get transmission BitTorrent client, without it wanting to install XWindows?
[18:43] <SD39> anyone know if it's possible to backup my wireless drivers from my broken install and move then to my reinstall? I can access the broken install still.
[18:44] <andresj> hello, I have a virtual machine (kvm via libvirt) with Windows XP. It is configured to make use of my two processors, but when I start i up both processor's usage go to 100%. I am assuming it is a bug, since when I configure it to use only one, CPU usage is barely 40% on one core, and 20% (Firefox, etc) on the other.
[18:44] <andresj> anyone know a workaround or fix?
[18:45] <usr13> haha, that's pretty good from JumboJellyfish.  Was he a troll?
[18:45] <imran> yihao_, type iwconfig in terminal and if there is like 8 lines after "wlan0" it is detectinf your wifi driver
[18:45] <usr13> ("
[18:45] <andresj> MarkG: transmission is probably only Graphical—that is, it needs X Windows to run. There is, however, a good probability of a console-only program existing.
[18:46] <usr13> ("two major products that come out of Berkeley")
[18:46] <losher> MarkG: have you tried just installing transmission-cli ?
[18:46] <andresj> MarkG: oh, apparently transmission-cli would do the job

[18:47] <losher> andresj: I like to think of it as irc network latency roulette...
[18:47] <yihao_> imran, actually i'm connected to my wireless connection right now, so when i type iwconfig it shows as connected. the point is the networkmanager applet not recognizing it.
[18:47] <GPL> usr13 : thx.
[18:48] <Bryantos> yihao_, try sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[18:48] <andresj> losher: lol, very true ;P
[18:49] <imran> Oooooh... So whats the matter? long as it's connected, why do you need anything more, yihao_?
[18:49] <yihao_> Bryantos, did it, but the applet still doesn't work. Still saying that the devices are not managed.
[18:50] <yihao_> imran, I want to know the signal strenght and easily left-click the applet to see my my other wireless connections.
[18:50] <MarkG> Thanks, transmission-cli is just the ticket, it's even got a nice web interface :-)
[18:51] <Bryantos> well, just for future refrence yahio_, that restarts your network service. thought it would get the network manager to recognize it
[18:52] <o123hallo> hi
[18:52] <o123hallo> how do i start gigolo with the terminal?

[18:55] <o123hallo> wouldnt :-D
[18:56] <Arabus> o123hallo: you might try writing gigolo in the command line and then press the tab-key to see if the tab completion of the bash shows you the right command
[18:57] <Bryantos> o123hallo, if that doesn't work, try 'apropos giggolo' and see what you can find
[18:58] <dsdeiz> how to reinstall package using apt-get?

[18:59] <usr13> dsdeiz: What seems to be the problem?
[18:59] <usr13> dsdeiz: (Might be better to just fix what's wrong.)
[18:59] <Arabus> dsdeiz: try apt-get --reinstall <package-name>
[19:00] <Arabus> dsdeiz: man apt-get might help in the future
[19:01] <minimec> dsdeiz: If you want to reconfigure the package to its 'default' settings, 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure <packagename>' might be better.
[19:01] <usr13> Good advise from Arabus :)
[19:01] <Lolikon> Saying "don't login as root" is bollocks. It stems from the days when people sniffed the first packets of sessions so logging in as yourself and su-ing decreased the chance an attacker would see the root pw, and decreast the chance you got spoofed as to your telnet host target, You'd get your password spoofed but not root's pw. Gimme a break. this is 2009 - We have ssh, used properly it's secure. used improperly none of this 1989 will
[19:01] <Lolikon> make a bit of difference.
[19:01] <usr13> maybe even better advice from minimec
[19:02] <lupine_85> ping?
[19:02] <Lolikon> pong!
[19:02] <streblo> i have a python script that's being run every night by cron. is there a way to see the error log or traceback if the script dies?
[19:02] <iceroot> Lolikon: that is not the reason for "dont login as root"
[19:02] <Lolikon> why then?
[19:03] <iceroot> Lolikon: the reason is, you need normally only for one command the user root. so it is not safe to be root all the time, because it is easy to kill the system with a wrong command
[19:03] <Arabus> Lolikon: one of the main reasons not to work as root all the time, ist plain simple that you have more troubles breaking things when you lack the rights to do so
[19:03] <Lolikon> post people who `su' just say as root.
[19:03] <Lolikon> they might as well ssh in as such

[19:04] <momo> !wiki network
[19:04] <stephans> The behavior is inconsistent
[19:05] <danl> stephans: any time I have resolution issues, I just fall back to editing the xorg.conf file
[19:05] <usr13> LordKow: Basically, you only want to invoke admin rights when necessary.
[19:05] <Ravenkin> Just a general question with permissions I know there's read, write, and execute, but can you ever set permissions to just execute something no reading or writing or just write only?
[19:05] <stephans> danl: really? ouch!
[19:05] <usr13> Ravenkin: Yes
[19:05] <danl> Ravenkin: yes
[19:06] <vigo> stephans: xorg.conf or fglrx, I would browse the forums and make sure it is not a proprietary driver or something goofy that really is not needed.
[19:06] <danl> Ravenkin: it would be perms 111 if you want everyone to be able to execute and no one to read or write
[19:06] <Arabus> Ravenkin: chmod +x <filename> should do the trick
[19:06] <Ravenkin> it'd just be 0001 for everyone else to execute but not read or write correct?
[19:06] <Ravenkin> oh right

[19:07] <Ravenkin> Just wondering for myself, thanks guys danl, usr13 and arabus
[19:07] <iceroot> losher: for e.g. you want to delete a config in /something/  with root you type rm -rf /something/<tab> you have not seen that there are more files, so tab will not write something. very bad if /something/ = /etc/ or so
[19:07] <danl> Ravenkin: you probably want 711

[19:07] <Ravenkin> danl right thanks, like I said just my own curiousity.
[19:07] <tonii> iPoRn: either you don't have tcl8.4 installed, or the eggdrop use the wrong path to it.
[19:07] <stephans> wich has OSS drivers
[19:07] <danl> owner can read,write and execute, group can only execute and others can only execute

[19:14] <burkmat> MarkG: Still hunting a CLI boot tool? Cause I have one, just give me a minute to find it (and remember the name :p)
[19:14] <agent_j> dsdeiz: ok, just to let you know i'm running ubuntu 9.04 with epiphany 2.26.1 and it works great. you might want to upgrade epiphany. i think i know the command...
[19:15] <usr13> armence: Yes, (we all do).
[19:15] <minimec> dsdeiz: I don't use epiphany, but normally each user should have a .epiphany or .config/epiphany directory in the /home/<yourname> directory. Your personal software settings for epiphany are saved there.
[19:15] <Kottizen> burkmat: hej :D kul med svenskar
[19:15] <MarkG> burkmat: Still looking
[19:15] <vigo> dsdiez: Or maybe try the update&upgarde thing. as sudo, maybe that would help.
[19:16] <vigo> *upgrade
[19:16] <Kottizen> armence: Check the private chat.
[19:16] <o123hallo> thank you for your help! you / we fuck ms!
[19:16] <o123hallo> cheers cya
[19:17] <agent_j> hey all, if dsdeiz wants to upgrade epiphany then what apt-get variation does that?
[19:17] <dsdeiz> i think it's apt-get upgrade epiphany-browser?
[19:17] <jrib> agent_j: apt-get install epiphany-browser
[19:17] <jrib> dsdeiz: that won't work
[19:17] <agent_j> jrib: and that would grab from the updates repo?
[19:17] <jrib> dsdeiz: well it will upgrade everything, not just epiphany
[19:17] <JuanJOBC> HI all
[19:18] <jrib> agent_j: yes
[19:18] <dsdeiz> oh ok
[19:18] <agent_j> dsdeiz: i wouldn't do upgrade. you may want to get the deb from gnome.org
[19:18] <JuanJOBC> I need to print several jpg pictures into the same pdf file, is there any tool for that? thanks
[19:18] <jrib> agent_j: it grabs whatever the latest version in the configured repositories is
[19:18] <agent_j> dsdeiz: ok so it depends on what repo you have.....
[19:19] <MarkG> rcconf is just the job
[19:19] <burkmat> MarkG: Check out sysv-rc-conf
[19:20] <burkmat> MarkG: You don't mean editing runlevel services, etc?
[19:20] <agent_j> dsdeiz: the hardy repo has an old version of epiphany. you may want to get the deb. http://projects.gnome.org/epiphany/
[19:21] <jiohdi> my konversation was hi-jacked by root... now fixed... but any idea why that would happen?
[19:21] <fosa_> got it, need a $form['name']
[19:22] <MarkG> na, just switching them on/off   I have no idea what al that Kxx and Sxxx nonsense is..   Talk about making something simple complicated.
[19:23] <burkmat> MarkG: Hehe, well... Manually editing; I can agree with. but sysv-rc-conf makes it a lot easier. :)
[19:23] <bankix> MarkG: Yeah, just delete everything Kxx and Sxx in /etc
[19:23] <Entelin> what package is libXxf86vm in ?
[19:23] <Entelin> i'm not finding it anywhere
[19:24] <MarkG> I looked at the screenshot for sysv-rc-conf and saw all the numbers, and figured it was best avoided.  rcconf just lets me turn them on or off, i'll let Ubuntu deal with dependancies and ordering :-)
[19:24] <bankix> Entelin: Probably in libxxf86vm1
[19:24] <dsdeiz> i believe it's xulrunner that's causing my problem
[19:25] <bossdave>  bossdave: I don't know if this is the right place to be, but I am looking for help with a user keyboard preference.  The keyboard does not respond to any key strokes for this user (me).  I works well when signed on as guest, as I am now doing.  Any ideas?  Where can I set the user config for the keyboard?
[19:25] <Entelin> bankix, ah you know it looks like synaptic is case sensitive, so I was using it with case and it had it listed without
[19:25] <Entelin> thanks
[19:25] <commander_> i installed the latest globalmenu to my top bar look like Manc Leopard but don't see the change
[19:26] <bankix> Entelin: Just use "apt-cache search", and search for part of it -- I used xf86vm as search pattern.
[19:26] <Entelin> ok
[19:26] <user10> does ubuntu have a player which can play flash streaming data
[19:26] <bankix> user10: Maybe the flashplayer from Adobe will do?
[19:27] <user10> bankix: but it's not a swf file. its a streaming data
[19:27] <xangua> mplayer, totem, vlc ¿¿
[19:27] <xangua> jum...
[19:28] <bankix> user10: What does the URL look like?
[19:28] <user10> bankix: http://localhost:9999/test.swf
[19:28] <user10> but its not a swf
[19:29] <user10> streaming one
[19:29] <bankix> user10: Why does the name say .swf then?
[19:29] <jiohdi> user10, the adobe flashplayer plugin for firefox should have no problem
[19:30] <Slart> user10: if you want to try a media player go with vlc.. if that doesn't play it I doubt mplayer and the others will
[19:30] <danl> jiohdi: other than being a cpu hog :-P
[19:30] <jiohdi> danl, there are always trade offs :)
[19:31] <user10> Slart: Tried it, but it's needs a real time plugin
[19:31] <sorrel> Всем привет, есть кто нибудь кто общаеться на старом и добром русском языке?
[19:31] <danl> jiohdi: only because adobe's programmers are lazy, because flash doesn't lag and eat my processor on my Windows install like it does on my Ubuntu and OS X boxes
[19:31] <Slart> user10: realtime? as in Real Media?
[19:31] <user10> Slart: correct
[19:31] <jiohdi> danl, what do you want for nothing :)
[19:32] <Slart> user10: you can get the real player for linux.. it's actually not that horrible in linux
[19:32] <bankix> user10: If it's shockwave and not flash, I don't think you'll get it running under Linux.
[19:32] <danl> jiohdi: the web to start using html5 with it's nice video tag :-P
[19:32] <agent_j> !ru | sorrel
[19:32] <tread> Slart: Actually, I'd always loved VLC in Windows, but for some reason, ever since I switched to Ubuntu, VLC will hardly play anything, whereas mplayer (and its derivatives) work great once I got the right codec packs installed.
[19:32] <steve__> hi
[19:33] <danl> tread, I've I have only ever had one file VLC wouldn't play in ubuntu, and it was encrypted itunes movie from my mac
[19:33] <PSPUbuntu> what can i use rather than adobe after efects
[19:33] <jiohdi> any idea how or why root would steal control over konversation program?
[19:33] <Slart> tread: oh? vlc has played everything I've thrown at it.. to be honest though I don't throw that much strange stuff at it.. mostly mkv's
[19:33] <Kjakan> Hi.
[19:33] <Kjakan> I need some help with filing a bug report.
[19:33] <fosa_> i'm trying to have a form submission which sends an email, does anyone know of an example module which does this?
[19:33] <iceroot> !bug | Kjakan
[19:34] <Slart> jiohdi: root stealing control? I think you need to explain a bit more
[19:34] <mib_mib> I'm trying to set the pythonpath in a CRON script; what do I need to set the python path to exactly?
[19:34] <Kjakan> I would like to change the default Visual Effects to None in Ubuntu 10.
[19:34] <Kjakan> Change Desktop Background - Appearance Preferences - Visual Effects - None
[19:34] <bossdave>   I don't know if this is the right place to be, but I am looking for help with a user keyboard preference.  The keyboard does not respond to any key strokes for this user (me).  I works well when signed on as guest, as I am now doing.  Any ideas??
[19:34] <Kjakan> I mean, for the entire distro.
[19:34] <Slart> Kjakan: ask in #ubuntu+1  and it's 9.10
[19:34] <Kjakan> It would improve the speed on older machines.
[19:34] <harry__> hello and good bye :)
[19:34] <Kjakan> ty Slart
[19:34] <danl> fosa_: you have to be sure you have sendmail setup correctly on the server
[19:34] <jiohdi> slart, this morning, I could not start konversation... it said that my user could not r/w to .ICExxx whatever... and I learned that it was under ROOT control
[19:34] <danl> but I can get you an example hold on
[19:35] <Slart> jiohdi: have you been running gui programs with sudo?
[19:35] <jiohdi> slart, I was shown how to give it back to my user acct, but I am interested to know why it happened
[19:35] <jiohdi> maybe
[19:35] <danl> fosa_: http://www.thesitewizard.com/archive/feedbackphp.shtml
[19:35] <fosa_> danl, yes sendmail setup will come soon ^^;  Do you know which module handles user registration?  I'd like to see the example code
[19:35] <fosa_> sweet :)
[19:35] <Slart> !gksudo | jiohdi, check the link
[19:35] <tread> Slart: I don't throw strange stuff at it either.  Only stuff that it was able to play fine in Windows, and which it says it can play on its website.  I think it might have to do with the fact that I installed VLC under KDE and am now trying to run it under gnome.. depending on the file type, sometimes it plays, sometimes VLC just doesn't open at all (even though it used to on KDE).  Haven't tried a reinstall though.
[19:35] <Slart> jiohdi: you now know why you're not supposed to do that..
[19:35] <fosa_> danl, thanks
[19:36] <jiohdi> slart, that makes some sense... I dont know enough about linux to understand all that yet... but I am learning
[19:37] <Slart> tread: ah.. whenever vlc decides not to play something for me I get a nice little dialog explaining that I can shout,scream and hold my breath all I want.. this file won't play anyway =)
[19:37] <tonii> tread: KDE and Gnome use different filemanagers, which have different "preferred applications" settings.
[19:37] <Slart> jiohdi: always use gksudo for gui stuff.. sudo for command line stuff only
[19:38] <innomen> Virtualbox keeps making me type "/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup" Any idea how to make it happy permanently?
[19:38] <jiohdi> slart, I will stick that in my memory file :)
[19:38] <zenwryly> Is there a way to "boot" into a chroot?  IOW, to get init to run from a debootrstap on startup?
[19:38] <jiohdi> slart, what is ksudo for?
[19:38] <reborn3> hi
[19:39] <Slart> innomen: it should stick after you do it once... not sure why it isn't working for you
[19:39] <Slart> jiohdi: it's the same thing as gksudo..but for KDE
[19:39] <innomen> slart: hmm, oky, thanks
[19:39] <armence> Hey all, so when I try to start Songbird, it starts 2 songbird processes and 2 songbird-bin processes displays "Starting Songbird" for a little bit and then does nothing...
[19:39] <armence> Can anyone help me with that?
[19:39] <jiohdi> slart, so if the program is konversation I should use ksudo?
[19:39] <Slart> innomen: I think it builds and installs the virtualbox kernel module
[19:39] <Slart> jiohdi: yes.. but you shouldn't run konversation as root
[19:40] <jiohdi> slart, gotcha
[19:40] <mizipzor> i want to take two images and place them side by side in a new image... which would then be twice as wide but have the same height... the images themselves are of the same size... whats the best tool to do this? i tried gimp but i simply cant wrap my head around its bloat
[19:40] <innomen> yea it does it and says everything is peachy and tehn it works but later on when i try to lauch the same guest os it complains again
[19:40] <innomen> mizipzor, god tell me about it, i think photoshop made gimp just to make photoshop look good
[19:40] <smxy> Is there something wrong/different about netfilter/iptables on the latest Ubuntu? I'm trying to allow intenet access to an internal webserver. I am using the same two commands to do this that work on a different distro, but they aren't working here. There is the DNAT rule to DNAT it from the firewall's external IP address to the interna server's address and there is the forward rule that allows that traffic to be forwarded
[19:40] <bankix> mizipzor: Imagemagick, or even gimp.
[19:41] <Slart> mizipzor: you could use imagemagick.. but I would say that gimp is easier
[19:41] <smxy> The DNAT rule never sees any packets thoough and so none get through
[19:41] <innomen> gimp=rocket surgery
[19:41] <caesar_> can somebody help me?
[19:41] <mizipzor> innomen: funny thing this... if i dont find the program soon, it would probably have gone faster if i would have wrote in python/PIL :p
[19:42] <bankix> caesar_: No, because you gave no informations about the topic or problem.
[19:42] <andff> j/brasil
[19:42] <caesar_> im looking for my external inside of utorrent
[19:42] <caesar_> using wine
[19:42] <Slart> caesar_: your "external"? your external ip?
[19:42] <mizipzor> Slart: i tried to paste the images into a new image, once both were there i lost the selection... started over... once i managed to place them side by side (with a few pixels difference) i hade to figure out how to manipulate the layers... then i gave up... you say there are tools that are harder to use than gimp?
[19:42] <caesar_> no EHDD
[19:43] <spO> ubuntu loads everything in /etc/init.d/ directory at start?  what else does it load?
[19:43] <smxy> Anyone? I have been beating my head against this for two days. It "just works" on my CentOS box, but simply doesn't on my Ubuntu box.
[19:43] <igneousquill> I have a Dell Inspiron laptop I bought new a couple of months ago.  I run Ubuntu 9.04 on it.  I've never had a problem with the wireless connection, but this afternoon it kicked me off.  I tried reconnecting but I just get the monitors icon with a red x.  Wired connection works fine though.  I tried rebooting.  I verified wireless is set to "on."  I even tried running a live Xubuntu CD.  In all cases the wireless didn't work.  Sug
[19:43] <igneousquill> gestions?
[19:43] <innomen> mizipzor, i suppose trying to do it in notepad would be harder than gimp... maybe
[19:43] <bankix> mizipzor: For a few photos, gimp is the right tool for you. Althoug you'll have to learn the basics....
[19:43] <th0r> spO: no...you need to read up on runlevels
[19:44] <Slart> mizipzor: oh my.. I don't know if this will help you.. but here it is http://www.imagemagick.org/
[19:44] <Slart> mizipzor: command line ftw =)
[19:44] <Slart> !boot
[19:44] <mizipzor> Slart: command line! thats something to depend on
[19:44] <spO> th0r, what files are used for runlevels,  what files are ran at boot time?
[19:44] <Slart> !runlevels
[19:45] <innomen> l8r guys :)
[19:45] <smxy> Anyone? I have been beating my head against this for two days. It "just works" on my CentOS box, but simply doesn't on my Ubuntu box.
[19:45] <spO> i don't understand what that means,  what files are used at boot?
[19:45] <mizipzor> bankix: the problem is that i dont want to manipulate any images... i want to concatenate them... placing them side by side but keeping the images themselves exactly intact, and place them with pixel perfect alignment... gimp seems much more geared towards... you know, actual drawing
[19:45] <edbian> !upstart
[19:45] <bankix> spO: The scripts from the initrd, then upstart, and then the init scripts in /etc/init.d and /etc/rc*.d
[19:45] <Slart> mizipzor: I think you want to use the "montage" command
[19:45] <th0r> spO: http://www.debianadmin.com/debian-and-ubuntu-linux-run-levels.html
[19:45] <EDinNY> How do I set up mulitple nics?
[19:45] <mizipzor> Slart: seems to do exactly what i want :p
[19:45] <bankix> mizipzor: How many images are you talking of?
[19:46] <openselcs> how do you access your folders in samba? when i am given the username-domain-password dialogue window and enter my information it keeps locking me out. what's wrong?
[19:46] <mizipzor> bankix: two
[19:46] <smxy> EDinNY: /etc/network/interfaces
[19:46] <bankix> mizipzor: Use gimp, learning how to do this with imagemagick will take you more time.
[19:46] <smxy> Can anyone please help me with my firewall problem?
[19:46] <caesar_> i am trying to make my external hard drive my download folder in uTorrent.. what path would it be under?
[19:46] <EDinNY> smxy: I seem to have problems telling it to start 2 nics and telling it which nic is which...it chooses the wrong eth0 by default
[19:47] <mizipzor> bankix: hold on, i think ive found a cli here that does the trick... its personal now, i dont want to use gimp and i will be a little more happy if i can solve this without bloatware...
[19:47] <mizipzor> sorry about the rage btw :p
[19:47] <smxy> lock the mac addresses n /etc/iftab
[19:47] <deany> caesar_, /media  (why not use transmission)
[19:47] <caesar_> transmission greys out on me
[19:47] <bankix> mizipzor: If time doesn't matter for you... at least, it matters for me.
[19:47] <caesar_> OFTEN
[19:47] <bankix> Im off then for a while...
[19:48] <caesar_> im using wubi.. maybe this is why
[19:48] <spO> what user does Ubuntu run rc2.d scripts ?  ie, what user does it use to run boot time scripts?
[19:48] <ubuntu> hi i was going to install ubuntu on my laptop which file system is preferred is it ext3 or ext 4?
[19:48] <openselcs> how do you access your folders in samba? when i am given the username-domain-password dialogue window and enter my information it keeps locking me out. what's wrong?
[19:48] <smxy> Is there no one in here who can help with an Ubuntu firewall problem?
[19:48] <deany> caesar_, try enabling the web interface then
[19:48] <igneousquill> Again, I am suddenly unable to connect to wireless on my laptop running 9.04.  No wireless connections display, even though I know there are there.  Everyone else in the office is able to get on.
[19:48] <Slart> spO: afaik it's root.. but.. now when you ask I get unsure..
[19:48] <caesar_> ok lemme try that
[19:48] <rootlinuxusr> ext4 is the newest with more features, but untested - I prefer ext3...for now
[19:48] <ubuntu_904> hi i was going to install ubuntu on my laptop which file system is preferred is it ext3 or ext 4?
[19:48] <sammy> anyone ever lost all their open tabs during a firefox update? session restore works just fine except when I get a 'you need to restart firefox because it updated' message
[19:48] <ubuntu_904> more featres ?
[19:48] <Slart> ubuntu_904: I would go with ext3
[19:48] <deany> caesar_, theres always azureus too.
[19:49] <antibody> !pulseaudio
[19:49] <antibody> !alsa
[19:49] <caesar_> i need something lightweight
[19:49] <rootlinuxusr> xfce?
[19:49] <Darxus> How do I update /etc/lsb-release?  Downloading and dpkg -i'ing http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/b/base-files/base-files_5ubuntu4_i386.deb didn't do it.
[19:49] <spO> is there any  other scripts besides runlevel scripts , such as rc2.d  , that are ran at boot time?
[19:49] <ubuntu_904> ok so a ext3 is more preferred choice
[19:49] <caesar_> vuze always been too bloated for me
[19:49] <EDinNY> smxy: /etc/iftab does not exist.  I need to create it, right?
[19:49] <ubuntu_904> what about swap memory i got a 1 gb memory and am running an atom processor
[19:49] <smxy> yes
[19:49] <th0r> spO: very often an init script calls something else
[19:49] <smxy> just a sec
[19:50] <Slart> ubuntu_904: ext3 is the stable choice.. I would only use ext4 for experimenting, so far
[19:50] <iceroot> ubuntu_904: is it a ssd?
[19:50] <rootlinuxusr> How much drive space - I've always allotted 1GB....
[19:50] <Slart> !swap | ubuntu_904
[19:50] <smxy> EDinNY: etries look like:
[19:50] <smxy> eth0 mac 00:c0:4f:19:9a:e7
[19:50] <smxy> eth1 mac 00:60:08:3e:5c:21
[19:50] <ubuntu_904> ssd?
[19:50] <smxy> entries
[19:50] <rootlinuxusr> solid state drive.
[19:50] <openselcs> how do you access your folders in samba? when i am given the username-domain-password dialogue window and enter my information it keeps locking me out. what's wrong?
[19:50] <iceroot> ubuntu_904: like in the netbooks
[19:50] <mib_mib> OMG are there any gurus in here?
[19:51] <iceroot> ask | mib_mib
[19:51] <smxy> No, there are not or they'd probably help me.
[19:51] <rootlinuxusr> Do you have the proper ports open 137-139, 445 | openselcs
[19:51] <th0r> there are...but we avoid whiners
[19:51] <mizipzor> Slart: montage was _exactly_ what i was looking for... thank you
[19:51] <smxy> I'm not hining. I'm simply asking for help and no one has respond at all.
[19:52] <smxy> +w
[19:52] <openselcs> rootlinuxusr, no. thank you for that.
[19:52] <Slart> mizipzor: great.. you're welcome
[19:52] <deany> caesar_, install transmission-cli  to use web interface without gui
[19:52] <th0r> smxy: probably because no one has an easy answer
[19:52] <rootlinuxusr> I had the same issue =]
[19:52] <smxy> I don;t mind if it's a hard answer :)
[19:52] <ubuntu_904> no my question was how much memory should i allocate as swap memory
[19:53] <mizipzor> Slart: but the images are written with a wide white border around them... you dont happen to know how to remove it?
[19:53] <rootlinuxusr> How much space do you have?
[19:53] <Slart> ubuntu_904: if you will be using hibernation.. at least as much as you have memory
[19:53] <th0r> ubuntu_904: usually about 1.5 times the amount of ram in your computer
[19:53] <smxy> But this firewall is pretty much DOA without DNAT working.
[19:53] <user10> my firefox on ubuntu is kind of stuck
[19:53] <Slart> mizipzor: not by heart.. did you check the examples page?
[19:54] <ubuntu> sorry i lost out on connection
[19:54] <mib_mib> iceroot: ok here goes -  i've been trying to simply create a cron job that runs a python script for about 3 hours now, here is the script and the crontab http://pastebin.com/d7285d235
[19:54] <user10> it shows deactivated back buttons , no history
[19:54] <user10> etc
[19:54] <ubuntu> so how much swap did u say i have an atom processor and 1 gb ram n will virtual box run smooth on my system
[19:54] <user10> i tried to reinstall but in vain
[19:54] <leifdk1978> ? is there a software on linux that work like corel painter
[19:54] <Slart> mizipzor: hang on.. let me try with two pictures here.. see if I get a border too
[19:54] <mib_mib> iceroot: i set the permissions of /tmp to 777, and also of myscript.py to 777
[19:55] <mizipzor> Slart: i read the man page, but havent found any examples
[19:55] <iceroot> mib_mib: why?
[19:55] <rootlinuxusr> at the very minimum 1:1, 1.5 is better.
[19:55] <Slart> mizipzor: not the man page.. the web site..
[19:55] <edbian> !swap
[19:55] <mizipzor> Slart: just did montage img1.jpg img2.jpg out.jpg, gives border
[19:55] <Slart> mizipzor: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/montage.php
[19:55] <mib_mib> iceroot: why what
[19:55] <iceroot> mib_mib: 777
[19:55] <Slart> mizipzor: but I'll give it a try.. see what happens.. hang on
[19:55] <mazda01> anyone help with me with a ntfs smb share problem. i can't get write access to the share? here's my forum post. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7742764#post7742764
[19:55] <iceroot> mib_mib: and what is the error?
[19:55] <chris_> what up
[19:55] <mib_mib> iceroot: because i wanted to rule out the fact that it wouldn't be able to write to that dierctory or access it
[19:56] <ubuntu_904> so whats the enough memory for running ubuntu 9.04 network remix edition on an atom proc with 1 gb ram
[19:56] <mizipzor> Slart: seems like the examples page shows that there is a border by default
[19:56] <mib_mib> iceroot: there is no error, i don't have mail set up so i can't use the MAILTO directive in cron either
[19:56] <spy6> hi there
[19:56] <davekong_> I started installing drupal6 then canceled before the mysql database was set up and now every time I run a package manager it tries to install drupal and I can't remove it because I get a mysql database error, what do I do
[19:56] <mib_mib> iceroot: the problem is that it does not create the file
[19:56] <ubuntu_904> enough memory = swap
[19:56] <iceroot> mib_mib: look at the log-file from cron
[19:56] <spy6> is there any NEW queue in ubuntu like in debian?
[19:56] <iceroot> mib_mib: something in /var/log/
[19:56] <mib_mib> iceroot: okay! good idea, i didn't know that existed
[19:57] <deany> ubuntu_904, I run a dell mini 9 with 1gb ram and no swap, tho I dont do a whole lot on it.. anything but running a vm wont really need swap.
[19:57] <edbian> !swap | ubuntu_904
[19:57] <Slart> mizipzor: ok.. I get a border too.. let's check the good manual.. see what they say
[19:57] <signpost> Could anyone help me get openldap authentication going?
[19:58] <mib_mib> iceroot: okay, i guess i will have to enable that
[19:58] <mizipzor> Slart: check the -append option... seems to be what i want
[19:58] <edbian> ubuntu_904: Look at that page.  It's a great reference for swap :)
[19:58] <signpost> I've got it as far as being able to "su ldapuser", but can't log in with those accounts
[19:58] <deany> ubuntu_904, sidenote, its generally best to not use a swap on a netbook with it having a flash drive
[19:58] <signpost> syslog says "pam_ldap: ldap_initialize Bad parameter to an ldap routine"
[19:58] <rootlinuxusr> has anyone used tircd?
[19:58] <ubuntu_904> y so deany?
[19:59] <commander_> how do i get to the programs on globalmenu?
[19:59] <deany> ubuntu_904, they have a finite number of writes
[19:59] <edbian> ubuntu_904: SSD wear out faster with reads and writes than the usual harddrives.  Swap gets written to and read from a lot and it will wear out your SSD
[20:00] <ghee> hi folks having problems setting the right permissions on an local vfat partition -- it's root though fstab has the "user" option.  any ideas?
[20:00] <Slart> mizipzor: montage -mode Concatenate works too
[20:00] <burkmat> ghee: could mount with specific umask?
[20:00] <deany> ubuntu_904,   it will take a long time still to wear it out, but  minimise the writes with no swap and no journal (I keep the journal)
[20:00] <om26er> can any1 tell me a way to strip ubuntu jaunty to just base system
[20:00] <deany> ubuntu_904, http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/09/04/four-tweaks-for-using-linux-with-solid-state-drives/
[20:01] <pavelz> hi... apparently I have se linux, how do I deal with it?
[20:01] <ghee> tell burkmat yeah i think i tried that (007), do i have that wrong for read write exec?
[20:01] <spO> what program do you guys use for torrents, do you guys use ktorrent or rtorrent  ?    if you want a program to run in a background without a user logged in, then you can use rtorrent, right?
[20:01] <pavelz> i need to disable it
[20:01] <rootlinuxusr> utorrent via wine?
[20:01] <om26er> ubuntu_904: http://om26er.blogspot.com/2009/08/install-ubuntu-on-acer-aspire-one-sd.html
[20:01] <einb> sp0: screen + rtorrent play nicely
[20:01] <Kottizen> spO: The wonderful web broswer Opera have bittorrent inbuild :D
[20:01] <mizipzor> Slart: yea, that did the trick
[20:01] <mizipzor> Slart: thank you :) you saved the day
[20:02] <Kai`> sp0, Deluge -- just like uTorrent for Win32
[20:02] <om26er> ubuntu_904: this will make ur netbook speedy
[20:02] <Slart> mizipzor: yay.. the world can breathe easily once again.. little children playing in the sunset.. everyone gets cake :D
[20:02] <ghee> tell burkmat actually scratch that, the fs is ext3
[20:02] <burkmat> ghee: Well, umasks are a bit... funny. 007 would result in 770 permission iirc... I'm not great at it. :p could google it? and check man mount, i'm not 100% sure about umasks and vfat.
[20:02] <ubuntu_904> hmm
[20:02] <ubuntu_904> i will read it up
[20:02] <user10> The file was RTSP version
[20:02] <ubuntu_904> tanks omar
[20:03] <ubuntu_904> thanks*
[20:03] <burkmat> ghee: oh... well, could just chmod/chown then?
[20:03] <kjs> vmware server on latest ubuntu ?
[20:03] <user10> is there any player for rtsp://
[20:03] <ghee> tell burkmat really? even if it's a separate partition?
[20:03] <iceroot> user10: vlc imo
[20:03] <spO> ktorrent is like utorrent too, but i am looking for something that will run in the background , like a deamon,   i think rtorrent is the only one that supports that because you can run it in screen
[20:04] <user10> iceroot: does not play
[20:04] <deany> spO, transmission-cli
[20:04] <mizipzor> Slart: ... and dont forget; there was no need for gimp ;)
[20:04] <kjs> vmware server on latest ubuntu ? wont compile is there an anyany script for it?
[20:04] <burkmat> ghee: Afaik it should work perfectly smooth... I used to do it all the time, atm don't have any ext3s mounted though, so can't try ;)
[20:04] <deany> spO, installs transmission-daemon too
[20:04] <iceroot> kjs: not in the repos. try virtualbox
[20:04] <ghee> tell burkmat cool!  will give it a try
[20:05] <kjs> iceroot: no good...
[20:05] <Slart> mizipzor: hehe
[20:06] <iceroot> kjs: but you can download it from the website
[20:06] <felix_> felix_,
[20:06] <mib_mib> iceroot: I got the logging to work, however, I dont' see anything useful in the logs http://pastebin.com/d131bdf98
[20:06] <felix_> could anyone try http://<IP_ADDRESS>:8083 ?
[20:06] <felix_> please is to check my xampp
[20:06] <dare> forbidden
[20:06] <Slart> felix_: forbidden.. erro 403
[20:06] <dare> You don't have permission to access /xampp/ on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

[20:07] <rootlinuxusr> oops....
[20:07] <BellinXFelon> how can i install a canon pixma mx310
[20:07] <iceroot> user10: google is saying vlc can play it
[20:08] <spO> oh, i guess deluge has a deamon mode
[20:08] <mib_mib> iceroot: although, of note is the fact that instead of runnig /usr/sbin/cron , it is has crontab[4113] -- what does that mean?
[20:08] <Keiffer> Do you use OpenDNS? Do you suggest to be used?
[20:09] <user10> iceroot: well , when i do vlc rtsp://...... it says only real/helix rtsp servers supported for now
[20:09] <Kottizen> Keiffer: It's good, use it!
[20:09] <burkmat> OpenDNS hijacks NXDOMAINs, so if your ISP DNS isn't screwed up even worse, I wouldn't recommend OpenDNS Keiffer.
[20:09] <mizipzor> Keiffer: i use it at times when my ISP's dns is a bit cranky
[20:09] <mib_mib> iceroot: holy shit i figured it out - i needed a 'newline' at the end of the second statement.... thanks for your help, wouldn't have figured it out without the logs.
[20:09] <Keiffer> Kottizen, what about traffic snooping? won't they snoop on me?
[20:09] <Kottizen> Nope.
[20:10] <Kottizen> It's free, fast and just works :D
[20:10] <EDinNY> kubuntu seems to ignore /etc/iftab ...any suggestions?
[20:10] <Slart> Keiffer: opendns only hijacks nxdomains if you don't have an account with them.. which I think is free
[20:10] <iceroot> mib_mib: :)
[20:10] <andffbr> wanna fuck?
[20:10] <iceroot> andffbr: cu
[20:10] <codeshah> hey guys, my ubuntu server stalled for some reason overnight - how can I check what may have happened?
[20:10] <codeshah> I had to reboot it this morning
[20:10] <unni> hi
[20:10] <burkmat> codeshah: Logs?
[20:10] <Kottizen> jussi01: ?
[20:10] <Keiffer> Slart, so? it's safe?
[20:10] <unni> which is the best messenger for ubuntu
[20:11] <iceroot> unni: for what?
[20:11] <codeshah> burkmat, in particular, which ones should I be looking at?
[20:11] <rootlinuxusr> pidgin?
[20:11] <burkmat> !best | unni
[20:11] <jussi01> tab fail.
[20:11] <mrwes> I'm using Purrr to rename some files on a cifs mount from my server. Purrr renames the files fine, but cifs creates a zero byte text file for each rename function. anyone know what causes this?
[20:11] <unni> like yahoo gtalk
[20:11] <EDinNY> ...or my entries in iftab are broken.  Is this a resonable line in the file? "eth1    mac 00:13:F7:D1:47:Bf"
[20:11] <burkmat> codeshah: syslog , dmesg , messages are usually helpful
[20:11] <codeshah> thx
[20:11] <unni> no
[20:11] <unni> its not a poll
[20:11] <burkmat> unni: I recommend Pidgin.
[20:11] <Slart> Keiffer: I don't really know.. I would trust it for a home system ... until I hear of them doing something bad
[20:11] <unni> i need one
[20:12] <unni> pidgin dosent have video and voice
[20:12] <Martastic> Anybody feel like answering a question?
[20:12] <Hellmark[S10e]> quick question. I'm a debian user normally, and huge fan of midnight commander. My normal setup is to have it sort by name, but case insensitive. Doing this on ubuntu systems mixes in the hidden files with the non hidden files, just totally ignoring the period at the start of the name. Is there anyway to have it sort hidden, then normal, with case insensitive name as the order?
[20:12] <EDinNY> can anyone give help with iftab?
[20:12]  * dare agrees with burkmat. there is no best linux distro or best linux image editing tool!
[20:12] <iceroot> !ask | Martastic
[20:12] <iceroot> EDinNY: same for you
[20:12] <th0r> unni: now you are changing the questioin
[20:12] <unni> no
[20:13] <unni> pidgin dosent support video or audio
[20:13] <Slart> EDinNY: iftab as in file where you configure the network interfaces?
[20:13] <spO> i guess Transmission and Deluge are currently the best torreent clients because they allow daemon mode
[20:13] <Martastic> I am attempting to remove my Ubuntu partition.  I got GRUB worked out, but I don't know which partition Ubuntu is on.
[20:13] <millertimek1a2m3> can anyone help me set up my box to work with two monitors?
[20:13] <millertimek1a2m3> i have my original monitor  which is a 15.4 and a 22"
[20:13] <syuusuke> Martastic: use df -h
[20:13] <edbian> Martastic: Download "gparted" it's a great graphical tool for looking at your partitions.
[20:13] <mrwes> spO, rtorrent is pretty darn good too, light, small foot-print and fast :)
[20:13] <davekong_> is there a way to purge mysql databases with sudo privledges and not knowing the mysql admin password?
[20:13] <EDinNY> slart is iftab used on 9.04?
[20:13] <iceroot> !details | millertimek1a2m3
[20:13] <unni> do u have another os in ur system
[20:13] <edbian> Martastic: Otherwise "sudo fdisk -l" might help
[20:14] <Slart> EDinNY: I don't think so.. I don't have it on my system at least
[20:14] <dsdeiz> unni: GyachI has support for video.. Would that work?
[20:14] <Slart> EDinNY: network interfaces are configured by the network manager (in gnome) or in /etc/network/interfaces
[20:14] <EDinNY> what method of identifying NICs is used in 9.04?
[20:14] <unni> ik ill try that
[20:14] <syuusuke> EDinNY: use ifconfig and determine by MAC addr?
[20:14] <Slart> EDinNY: you want to decide which nic becomes eth0 and so on?
[20:15] <Slart> EDinNY: you can probably do that somewhere in the udev rules.. /etc/udev or somethnig like that
[20:15] <EDinNY> ifconfig lists wrong eth0 and eth1.  I want to swap them
[20:15] <EDinNY> how do I set udev rules?
[20:15] <ghee> tell burkmat seems not to have worked. chowned/chmoded both the partition and its mount point and gave it permissions of 755. but under properties, nautilus can't determine owner...still root
[20:15] <syuusuke> EDinNY: you config that in iftab
[20:16] <kjs> hum
[20:16] <Slart> EDinNY: that's in the udev rules.. I think it gets decided the first time the system sees them.. then it's saved somewhere in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[20:16] <ghee> burkmat sorry for the "tell" -- my eboard chess command!
[20:16] <burkmat> ghee: unmount - then chmod mountpoint - try again ;)
[20:16] <burkmat> ghee: it's alright :p
[20:16] <ghee> burkmat sorry yeah, unmounted before all that
[20:16] <millertimek1a2m3> can anyone help me set up my box to work with two monitors?
[20:17] <iceroot> millertimek1a2m3: as i told you, give some details what you have done, which card and so on (to the channel, i a off for lunch)
[20:17] <burkmat> ghee: Hm... Strange. Is the mountpoint the problem or are you trying to modify files on the partition?
[20:17] <ttt--> hi, i cant get my wireless to work. i got it to work once a year ago but i dont remember how. If i add an entry in the "wireless connections" tab, it just does nothing
[20:18] <millertimek1a2m3> iceroot: it's just a laptop and a 22" that i want to run at the same time. the laptop has a intel 965 chipset
[20:18] <spO> deluge does look exactly like utorrent, it looks like it is pretty amazing
[20:18] <ttt--> Also, the wireless connection entry in the networkmanager tool just disappears when i apply it
[20:18] <millertimek1a2m3> iceroot: i've gotten it to work right, but i have a problem where if i try to hook it up and set output to it through sys>pref>display
[20:19] <ghee> burkmat mountpoint seems fine -- partition is mounted there alright, but only for root; ownership problem, but apart from the "user" option in fstab, don't know how to make ext3 owned by user
[20:19] <ghee> burkmat can users not own ext3?
[20:19] <innomen> AMR convert or play?
[20:19] <millertimek1a2m3> iceroot: part of the wallpaper on my laptop monitor gets extended to the 22"
[20:19] <_Kuba> Hi!
[20:19] <ttt--> any ideas?
[20:20] <unni> ttt bout what
[20:20] <_Kuba> I'm looking for something like https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5641 but avaialable globally for entire ubuntu system :D
[20:20] <burkmat> ghee: Well... I've never had any issue with ownership at all, just treated it as an extended root, so to speak... chmod/chown as usual, mounted as default.
[20:20] <millertimek1a2m3> iceroot: i want the 22" to work like a virtual space, and allow me to simply move windows to it and i want the laptop monitor to display the original box, like the panels and the wallpaper and icons
[20:20] <_Kuba> Ie. dictionary tooltip with definition of the world
[20:20] <_Kuba> word*
[20:21] <Ubuntu> O_O
[20:21] <ubuntu_904> how to figure out whether ur acer has an ssd or a normal hdd
[20:21] <Ubuntu> It's that nick FREE? :D
[20:21] <Ubuntu> :D
[20:21] <Kottizen> Oh
[20:21] <Kottizen> Registred :/
[20:21] <edbian> ubuntu_904: How big is your HDD?
[20:21] <ubuntu_904> 160gb
[20:22] <Slart> ubuntu_904: I think you would have felt a stinging sensation in your wallet had it been a ssd
[20:22] <ubuntu_904> hmm well i got this one as a gift :P
[20:22] <edbian> ubuntu_904: I suspect you have a normal harddrive.  I don't think they make SSD that big.
[20:22] <styol> they have 160gig ssd's?
[20:22] <styol> i think i agree with edbian lol
[20:23] <momo> even 250 GB
[20:23] <styol> whaaa
[20:23] <innomen> i was kinda of lagging out there so i dont know if this got through, but does anyone know hwo to get amrs to play or convert them?
[20:23] <ubuntu_904> phew!!
[20:23] <styol> momo how much are they? 3k?
[20:23] <innomen> they make 160 gig usb sticks
[20:23] <imran> Any help? Im trying to install Unreal Tournament and the guide says to type "$sh ut-install-436.run" but I get "command not found"
[20:23] <ubuntu_904> momo 250 gb ssd?
[20:23] <edbian> innomen: I'd like to see a link to that!
[20:23] <momo> styol, expensive
[20:23] <innomen> kingston just released it
[20:23] <innomen> edbian: one moment
[20:23] <ubuntu_904> but this one is standard one i doubt its costing that much
[20:23] <edbian> innomen: ! :)
[20:23] <Slart> innomen: mm.. it can be done.. I converted some movies from a mobile phone.. but I had to compile codecs and what not.. I think it took me a couple of days all in all
[20:23] <innomen> http://www.physorg.com/news167461888.html
[20:23] <ubuntu_904> its at a normal price
[20:23] <innomen> 256 gig excuse me
[20:24] <unni> hi
[20:24] <prince_jammys> imran: don't type the leading dollar sign
[20:24] <millertimek1a2m3> iceroot: hello?
[20:24] <ubuntu_904> well in that case should i use swap at all
[20:24] <imran> prince_jammys, k, will try thanks
[20:24] <prince_jammys> imran: that represents the shell prompt.
[20:24] <unni>  hello
[20:24] <innomen> edbian, did ya catch that?
[20:24] <momo> ubuntu_904, 700 $ for 250 GB ssd
[20:24] <felix_> could anyone try http://<IP_ADDRESS>:8083/wordpress/index.php ?
[20:24] <unni> hello
[20:24] <felix_> please is to check my xampp
[20:24] <edbian> innomen: TOTALLY AWESOME
[20:24] <unni> how can i change my font colour
[20:24] <styol> lol innomen this came out like... last week
[20:25] <edbian> innomen: I thought they were stuck at like 32Gb
[20:25] <Slart> felix_: no response yet... seems to be timing out
[20:25] <ubuntu_904> when i installed ubuntu 8.10 on my desktop i used a 1 gb swap should i use here 2
[20:25] <imran> prince_jammys, i know you prob. cant help directly with this, but i got an error "Verifying archive integrity...tail: cannot open `+6' for reading: No such file or directory
[20:25] <imran> Error in check sums 889744922<PHONE_NUMBER>"
[20:25] <unni> how can i change my font color
[20:25] <ubuntu_904> is it required on a net book also i was keep on running a virtual box
[20:25] <innomen> styol, it seemed relevant :P
[20:25] <ubuntu_904> wih windoze in it :P
[20:25] <Slart> unni: which font?.. where?
[20:25] <edbian> ubuntu_904:  It's personal preference.  If your computer seems fast you have enough swap
[20:25] <innomen> edbian, its pretty shocking to me
[20:25] <unni> slart in x chat
[20:25] <unni> now
[20:25] <styol> innomen: oh no absolutely its just super new and super awesome for sure :) i also thought it was stuck at a lower size
[20:25] <unni> slart now
[20:25] <innomen> edbian, i feeel all hardcore for owning a 16gb stick
[20:26] <styol> lets just say a 160gb ssd is not very common yet lol
[20:26] <innomen> edbian, so like 256 is startrek land
[20:26] <unni> slart i tried preferences but my font always is dull grey
[20:26] <cF`Zuz|Work> anyone know if i need extra configurations to install BT3 on the same machine that Ubuntu is on?  or can i just install it on a different partition and i will get the option to boot?
[20:26] <Slart> unni: it's probably somewhere in xchat's menus.. preferences or such
[20:26] <edbian> innomen: lol  startrek land = space ?
[20:26] <momo> felix_, timeout
[20:26] <ubuntu_904> ah well i will go in for 1gb swap better :)
[20:26] <linxeh> heh
[20:26] <syuusuke> innomen: you know they have enclosures where you add your own CF cards to make 1 drive as SSD
[20:26] <felix_> :7
[20:27] <innomen> edbian,space plus alien hotties omg pew pew and replicators
[20:27] <unni> slart i saw preferences tried changing everything but my font color is the same
[20:27] <linxeh> you can just connect a compact flash card directly to the IDE bus :)
[20:27] <ubuntu_904> thanks guys
[20:27] <Slart> unni: did you try restarting?
[20:27] <innomen> syuusuke, link me?
[20:27] <Slart> unni: restarting xchat, that is
[20:27] <unni> yes
[20:27] <Pici> !offtopic
[20:27] <libtech> linxeh: srsly?
[20:27] <innomen> Slart, thats for helping me btw, stupid amr :(
[20:27] <unni> its the same since yesterday
[20:27] <linxeh> libtech: yup, its part of the spec - adapters are well cheap (obviously PATA though)
[20:27] <unni> slart: i tried everything
[20:28] <innomen> pici, i remember you
[20:28] <cipher42> does anyone know if ubuntu's network manager can handle RSA securID
[20:28] <syuusuke> innomen: http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/11/diy-ssd-adapter-takes-6-sdhc-cards-the-cake/
[20:28] <linxeh> libtech: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.10310
[20:28] <unni> slart:can u jst change ur font color now and tell me how you did it
[20:28] <innomen> syuusuke, thanks :)
[20:28] <Slart> innomen: yup.. it's very annoying..
[20:28] <imran> Got error while installing Unreal Tournament, any help? "Verifying archive integrity...tail: cannot open `+6' for reading: No such file or directory
[20:28] <libtech> linxeh: what are the uses for that?

[21:00] <burkmat> narendra3: I have never heard of such a thing happening before, so if it is it's probably not a very well known one. I'd probably guess it was a user error.
[21:00] <bazhang> !xrandr | millertimek1a2m3 please read this
[21:01] <narendra3> burkmat: I am damm sure,, I did not made any error, it was installer who formatted my /home
[21:01] <theTroy> Help. Mount.ntfs-3g is stuck on iowait and cannot be sudo kill -9. I was playing music with songbird, then disconnected portable drive (accidentally plugged off) and when trying to connect back, it does not mount, and adds another mount.ntfs-3g process on iowait, after system restart it works fine. ++ Have to make hard turn-off since otherwise it doesnt even want to turn off properly.
[21:01] <Slart> jjg: one other thing.. ubuntu doesn't use a root password.. you use your regular user and sudo.. the user password will work for sudo
[21:01] <Ileden> Hi! I have a question about ubuntu netbook remix, hope it's ok for this channel. I cannot get bluetooth to work. I have succesfully paired the device, but when I try to browse files I get an error "Could not display "obex://[00:23:B4:F5:42:46]/"."
[21:01] <burkmat> narendra3: Then I suggest you file a bug report with steps to reproduce it.
[21:01] <Bookman> Is there a step by step installation guide for Jabber server on Ubuntu 9.04?
[21:02] <ecolitan> klown maybe have to make a fs on it with mkfs, but i dont know how to talk you through doing that
[21:02] <Ileden> continued with "Error: DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)"
[21:02] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpJabberServer Bookman
[21:02] <millertimek1a2m3> bazhang: i've been directed to this before and it either doesn't  seem to work or i don't understand it
[21:02] <klown> ecolitan: ill google mkfs, thanks for your help.
[21:02] <ecolitan> klown not confortably if anything doesnt work :)
[21:02] <bazhang> millertimek1a2m3, well you need to tell the channel what you have tried, and what you do not understand
[21:03] <w_a_n_d> Why wont my hosts.deny and hosts.allow work
[21:03] <w_a_n_d> what do i need to install
[21:03] <branko> !sopcast
[21:03] <theTroy> Am I asking something  incorrectly or is it just an unkown issue?
[21:03] <theTroy> Help. Mount.ntfs-3g is stuck on iowait and cannot be sudo kill -9. I was playing music with songbird, then disconnected portable drive (accidentally plugged off) and when trying to connect back, it does not mount, and adds another mount.ntfs-3g process on iowait, after system restart it works fine. ++ Have to make hard turn-off since otherwise it doesnt even want to turn off properly.
[21:03] <klown> ecolitan: i got more information than i started with :P
[21:03] <unni> whatis sopcast
[21:03] <millertimek1a2m3> bazhang: channel? as in the website or this right here that i'm on...
[21:03] <unni> branko:pls tell me what sopcast is bout
[21:03] <burkmat> theTroy: I'd guess nobody here knows how to solve your problem. Sorry.
[21:03] <Nyquist333> I have 1 GB harddrive that is connected by eSATA. I've formatted it with ext2. I'm using "storage device manager" to mount it. What should I make the root permissions and owner if I want this to be available to any linux OS? This is my offline backup.
[21:04] <edbian> theTroy: Are you running "sudo umount /dev/<yourHDD>? and then it hangs?
[21:04] <bazhang> millertimek1a2m3, explain to the folks here in this channel what you have tried and what you dont understand
[21:04] <Manaan> how do you format a usb stick
[21:04] <Deevz> I'm learning CLI and ive got a problem here... the line header no longer shows username@host, now its just ">"
[21:04] <theTroy> edbian: as I mentioned before, I do not run umount, I hard-unplug it
[21:04] <Deevz> and I cant seem to be able to enter commands anymore
[21:04] <burkmat> Manaan: You can probably do that using gparted, or, if you are more comfortable with a command line, cfdisk or fdisk.
[21:04] <ecolitan> Nyquist333 where the heck you get a 1 GB HDD?
[21:04] <unop> Nyquist333,  sudo chown root.root /media/your_drive
[21:04] <Slart> Deevz: ctrl+c
[21:04] <theTroy> edbian: and with then re-mount does not work
[21:04] <Nyquist333> Sorry... 1TB
[21:05] <edbian> theTroy: You need to run umount.  You can't just hard unplug drives.  Is this ext3?
[21:05] <erUSUL> Deevz: > is the secondary proomt your command is not complete
[21:05] <Slart> Deevz: you probably wrote a ' somewhere
[21:05] <Deevz> Slart: that works, can you explain what happened?
[21:05] <burkmat> Manaan: Or to create a filesystem, mkfs.
[21:05] <branko> unni: to watch live stream from: http://www.exodus.si/vzivo.php
[21:05] <theTroy> edbian: ntfs its external drive, and I could do so before.
[21:05] <joeyeye> Nyquist333: just make it world writeable, why not ? 777 ?
[21:05] <erUSUL> Deevz: you have a " or ' or { or ( not closed
[21:05] <Manaan> burkmat:  righ
[21:05] <branko> unni: u need sopcast p2p program...
[21:05] <Manaan> i found out
[21:05] <Manaan> mkfs is the key here
[21:05] <Slart> Deevz: you can write multiline commands by not ending a ', I think.. it then waits for you to write the second ' .. that's when you get the > prompt
[21:05] <Deevz> erUSUL: not sure what that implies
[21:05] <Bookman> bazhang: Wow, that is really old.  Back to Hoary
[21:05] <burkmat> Manaan: Alright. What is the problem?
[21:06] <Manaan> oddly enough, i built a usb stick using the ubuntu usb maker
[21:06] <Manaan> it wouldnt boot for some reason
[21:06] <Deevz> so I could write for example sudo shutdown '
[21:06] <Nyquist333> What about owners? So, if I have dirs for a user mike:mike and I take it to another linux machine can a user update the folder? Or do I need to make others write/create as well?
[21:06] <millertimek1a2m3> k i've tried to run xrandr to set up output to multiple monitors. one is my laptop monitor, a 15.4 inch and the other is a 22" monitor. i used xrandr --auto and the new settings look like this: http://pastebin.com/m200aac39 but in the real world, when the laptop monitor is working fine, the output to 22" is wrong
[21:06] <Deevz> then " '-r now"?
[21:06] <edbian> theTroy: It's bad practice.  You have to unmount one way or another before you physically remove.
[21:06] <burkmat> Manaan: Are you sure the computer supports booting from a USB Device?
[21:06] <Manaan> burkmat:  positive
[21:07] <ecolitan> Nyquist333 what if you use user nobody to make the updates?
[21:07] <joeyeye> Nyquist333: well, mike:mike is really just uid:gid so if the other system has a user:group that matches they will be able to access
[21:07] <Slart> Deevz: say you write something like       echo 'Hello everyone  <press enter>   now bash knows you haven't finished the string so it expects you to type more.. so on the next line you can type    in the room'  <enter> now you have two '' and the command is finished
[21:07] <millertimek1a2m3> and by the way, I'm trying to set it up so that the 22" is a virtual screen, like with the laptop screen operating as if there isn't any 22" and the 22" being simply an extra output
[21:07] <jjg> Slart .. ok, thanks.  If I'm getting IO errors during install process and then it hangs inthe console showing "/bin/login: error while loading shared libraries: /lib/libpam.so.0: cannot read file data: Input/output error" ... AND I saw the same problems when fsck tried to run, would you think there is a problem?
[21:07] <burkmat> Manaan: Well, I'm sorry, not sure what the issue could be then. Personally I used unetbootin to create all my USB boot sticks, and that's worked flawlessly.
[21:08] <thiebaude> burkmat, i've used it too with no problems
[21:08] <Slart> jjg: hard to tell from those errors... have you checked the install cd for defects?
[21:08] <joeyeye> Nyquist333: do you want to prevent access on other systems, or enable  ?
[21:08] <thiebaude> many times
[21:08] <jjg> Slart, doing that now
[21:08] <Nyquist333> joeyeye: Thanks... So, if I setup a new system and I have a group called mike and a user called mike, it will be able to access this drive even though the original mike user and group was on another machine?
[21:08] <unop> ecolitan, the user 'nobody' is a unique user in itself, the UID of this user is not guaranteed to be consistent across machines/distros,etc
[21:08] <Nyquist333> I want to enable access. This is a backup.
[21:08] <burkmat> Nyquist333: Doubt it, uid and gid may change. But root should be able to alter it.
[21:08] <Deevz> I get it Slart, thx
[21:08] <unop> Nyquist333, that's not guaranteed to work - the UIDs must match up
[21:09] <joeyeye> Nyquist333: it depends on the numbers associated to mike:mike - cat /etc/passwd | grep mike on the system and you'll see what I mean
[21:09] <Nyquist333> ok, so what if I don't want an owner or care for a back up. Can I do that?
[21:09] <arthurh> is anyone using an intel wifilink 5300 wireless card and getting n speeds under ubuntu?
[21:09] <ritesh> which is best among fedora,debian,ubuntu,mandriva,foresight?
[21:09] <ecolitan> isnt nobody always the same uid?
[21:09] <Slart> !best | ritesh
[21:09] <joeyeye> Nyquist333: set the owner to nobody
[21:10] <burkmat> Nyquist333: You want to write data without an owner? Why not just set it 777?
[21:10] <nick125> ritesh: I think you're going to get a biased answer here.
[21:10] <Slart> ritesh: it's basically down to individual taste
[21:10] <unop> ecolitan, on ubuntu and debian perhaps - but not guaranteed so on other distros
[21:10] <Keiffer> if i have ubuntu on 32bit and i tar all the system, can I port it to 64bit machines?
[21:10] <Nyquist333> I will make it 777. That I understand. I was just wonder what people do for owners with Backup volumes?
[21:10] <thiebaude> ritesh, use what you think is the best
[21:10] <gescape> hi
[21:10] <ritesh> I need internet and access my 3-4 computers on LAN
[21:10] <Nyquist333> I'll check for a nobody option, thanks.
[21:10] <burkmat> !hi | gescape
[21:11] <Keiffer> Or is there a way to have a clone of my actual system, on 64bit? now using 32
[21:11] <ecolitan> unop:ok i see
[21:11] <unop> Keiffer, no
[21:11] <joeyeye> Nyquist333: usually ad administrator would set the owner to a backup group, and the user to be a backup user...
[21:11] <Slart> ritesh: all those distros will do that
[21:11] <ritesh> thiebaude: I thought ubuntu was best but it didn't work for me
[21:11] <unop> !clone | Keiffer
[21:11] <deany> Keiffer, could get the list of packages installed, and backup your home folder, and install 64bit, and, well the rest.
[21:11] <deany> or what he said
[21:11] <ritesh> Slart: ubuntu didn't work for me
[21:12] <thiebaude> ritesh, i would agree, but i;am biased
[21:12] <gescape> can anyone explain why there are both versions of firefox available in repo, 3.1 & 3.5? Is 3.5 still treated as unstable?
[21:12] <joeyeye> Nyquist333: i.e. define a grp called "backupops" and a user "backupuser" ...
[21:12] <Nyquist333> joeyeye: So, how can I move the harddisk, to another machine where the groups and users are different?
[21:12] <ritesh> thiebaude: whats ur biased answer?
[21:12] <Slart> ritesh: so try one of the others.. repeat until you're happy
[21:12] <joeyeye> Nyquist333: you would then define those groups/users on the other machine - you're thinking too hard.
[21:12] <ritesh> nono slart
[21:12] <Nyquist333> I'm thinking that the groups would be different on another machine even with the same name.
[21:12] <unop> Nyquist333, best to use a filesystem that doesn't use permissions/ownership - FAT32 for e.g
[21:12] <deany> ritesh, its like shampoo, whatever works.
[21:12] <Keiffer> deany, what about the software i've compiled myself?
[21:13] <vikash> i installed JBoss on ubuntu 9.. now i have to give installed location in netbeans.. where is it
[21:13] <gescape> I just would like to upgrade my 3.0x version to 3.5 without loosing bookmarks and so on...
[21:13] <thiebaude> ritesh, what slart says
[21:13] <ritesh> guys pls. help me
[21:13] <bazhang> ritesh, with what
[21:13] <vikash> where is JBoss installation directory
[21:13] <ritesh> to choose an OS to replce my WinXP
[21:13] <bazhang> gescape, install 3.5 it will get your bookmarks etc
[21:13] <vikash> installed it with synaptic
[21:14] <Nyquist333> unop: I've sonsidered that, just wanted to know what linux people do. I'm trying to get away from microsoft.
[21:14] <Keiffer> what about using this 32bit on a 64bit machine? I see that the difference is neglijible
[21:14] <ecolitan> Nyquist333 or maybe make the backups as root?
[21:14] <burkmat> ritesh: Start with Ubuntu and see if you're satisfied.
[21:14] <bazhang> ritesh, discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic ; this is for Ubuntu support ONLY
[21:14] <Nyquist333> If I make the backups as root, can I access them as root from another machine?
[21:14] <burkmat> ecolitan, Nyquist333: Not a bad idea, root will always be UID 0.
[21:14] <osx5> hello nubuntu's
[21:14] <gescape> bazhang, thx :)
[21:14] <BellinXFelon> i keep trying to install my canon mx310 with kubuntu printing configuration, and it keeps freezing up, is there a way to do it through terminal?
[21:14] <gescape> that's what I wanted to know :)
[21:14] <vikash> bazhang, i installed jbos .. where is its installation directory
[21:14] <ritesh> bazhang: ok but i couldn't find solution to my ubuntu problem
[21:14] <nick125> Keiffer: If you have less than 4GB of RAM, the differences are very negliable
[21:14] <unop> Nyquist333, well, that's what I have to do unfortunately with my portable disk - not every machine I access allows me to become root, etc to change permissions/ownership etc
[21:15] <burkmat> Nyquist333: Truth is, it doesn't matter much who owns it. As long as you have root on the new machine you can read whatever you want.
[21:15] <Nyquist333> Has anyone ever formatted a thumb drive as ext2? What would you use for permissions and owners?
[21:15] <thiebaude> vikash, you try usr/bin?
[21:15] <ritesh> can't boot to desktop GUI
[21:15] <vikash> ok
[21:15] <ritesh> only command prompt
[21:15] <bazhang> ritesh, you have mentioned no problems here; just that it 'didnt work'
[21:15] <gescape> bazhang, would you uninstall 3.0 after installing 3.5 or is it still unstable?
[21:15] <burkmat> !doesntwork
[21:15] <osx5> question: how do I install ubuntu as CLI only? I want to use ICEwm or another manager instead of a DE
[21:15] <vikash> thiebaude, its not
[21:15] <Slart> !minimal | osx5
[21:15] <ritesh> hey I m telling its not booting to desktop
[21:15] <bazhang> gescape, need to keep both installed; it is stable but unofficial until next release of Ubuntu
[21:16] <Nyquist333> burkmat: I think I'm going to test that first with a liveCD. Worst case, I can just change all the owners when I'm root.
[21:16] <ritesh> bazhang: only dos mode is I get
[21:16] <Keiffer> nick, I have 512 MB! I kinda don't need a better computer but... it got old, the case isnt shiny and it makes noise
[21:16] <Slart> osx5: if you start with that you can add whatever you need.. and leave out the stuff you don't want
[21:16] <ritesh> graphics won't load
[21:16] <gescape> bazhang, ic.. thank you
[21:16] <bucky> vikash: cat /usr/share/netbeans/java2/sources/readme.txt  ?
[21:16] <thiebaude> vikash, programs are usally there
[21:16] <erUSUL> Nyquist333: 777 for all the drive... the user and group is useless. the same uid/gid will map to different user/group (if any) of different systems
[21:16] <ritesh> because of intel on board graphics
[21:16] <vikash> thiebaude, i installed it from synaptic ,now i have to give path in netbeans
[21:16] <ritesh> u got a solution?
[21:16] <osx5> Slart: ty
[21:16] <bazhang> ritesh, sounds like a corrupt iso or bad burn md5 the iso and burn very slowly, then do the disk integrity check
[21:16] <bazhang> !md5 | ritesh
[21:17] <john-buer> .
[21:17] <burkmat> Nyquist333: Well I can guarantee root will be UID 0, it's quite fundamental... But testing is always good, hope you get it working good. :)
[21:17] <Keiffer> ritesh, romania?
[21:17] <fantasticulous> hi i hear horrible cracks with pidgin message sounds (music is also playing)
[21:17] <Nyquist333> erUSUL: Can root on one machine change the permissions to 777 if root is not the owner?
[21:17] <bazhang> !intel | ritesh check this
[21:17] <vikash> bucky, do u know
[21:17] <bucky> vikash: cat /usr/share/netbeans/java2/sources/readme.txt  ?
[21:17] <erUSUL> Nyquist333: yes: roo can do everything
[21:17] <ecolitan> Nyquist333 root can always change the perms
[21:18] <ritesh> bazhang: i already tried commands on this page didn't work
[21:18] <bucky> vikash: did you install netbeans with synaptics / aptitiude / apt-get  ?
[21:18] <Nyquist333> I'll test this first, thanks all. New qyestion: Is the only way to do full disk encryption is with the altnernate CD install?
[21:18] <phar0z> I've reverted the Jaunty xorg intel driver to 2.4 for the sake of performance issue, and now my kde doesn' show up anymore :(
[21:18] <osx5> slart: what are the essentials for a minimal install once I get it on? like should I get GNU compiler, python, ruby, etc?
[21:18] <vikash> synaptic
[21:18] <ritesh> couldn't start graphics
[21:18] <thiebaude> ritesh, does X freeze?
[21:18] <vikash> bucky, synaptic
[21:18] <bazhang> ritesh, need more details then 'didnt work'
[21:18] <bucky> vikash: you prolly need libnb-java2-java
[21:18] <ritesh> ya X server problem
[21:18] <bucky> vikash: apt-cache show  libnb-java2-java
[21:18] <john-buer> what is the difference between apt-get and aptitude?
[21:19] <bucky> john-buer: one is gui
[21:19] <thiebaude> ritesh, edit you xorg.conf
[21:19] <burkmat> apt-get has super cow powers.
[21:19] <iceroot> john-buer: apt-get hase supercow-power, aptitude not
[21:19] <Slart> osx5: hmm.. I don't really know... never used it myself.. but I think you'll get a base system.. without X/gnome/kde and such.. if you install "build-essential" it will pull in the compiler, linker and so on..
[21:19] <iceroot> burkmat: to slow :(
[21:19] <vikash> bucky, readme - This folder contains the source code for AbsoluteLayout.
[21:19] <ritesh> thiebaude:  what to edit in there?
[21:19] <ritesh> i tried that too.
[21:19] <bucky> john-buer: take that back.. there's about 20 different front ends for dpkg
[21:19] <osx5> Slart: k I just want to be able to have wifi and all that stuff working ahead of time if i can
[21:19] <iceroot> burkmat: aptitude is also a cli-version
[21:19] <sigmonsays> anyone know why hardy mirror is giving me 403?
[21:19] <beconase> why do some people have their IP shown and other just say unaffiliated?
[21:19] <burkmat> iceroot:  ;)
[21:19] <iceroot> sigmonsays: the repo?
[21:19] <osx5> beconase: for privacy
[21:19] <sigmonsays> I think I have to hunt down another mirror...
[21:20] <beconase> ahh
[21:20] <bazhang> !cloak > beconase
[21:20] <erUSUL> beconase: the later got a free cloak
[21:20] <vikash> bucky, i run apt-cache
[21:20] <Slart> osx5: oh.. I have no idea what you'd need for that.. wifi is black magic to me..I'm just happy it works on my laptop
[21:20] <iceroot> sigmonsays: gives "sud0 apt-get update" any errors?
[21:20] <bazhang> beconase, ask in #freenode for a cloak
[21:20] <iceroot> sigmonsays: gives "sudo apt-get update" any errors?
[21:20] <beconase> cool cheers
[21:20] <osx5> Slart: Im guessing some sort of driver set
[21:21] <john-buer> omg i've never used aptitude, cuz i belived it was the same as apt-get, but aptitude was great.. lol
