[04:11] <Grandslammaster> my apache2 server is giving me that error
[04:11] <Armagguedes> when isntalling 8.10, how do i set up that encrypted folder in my user /home directory
[04:11] <Grandslammaster> how do i fix it
[04:11] <HacKBoX> transporter: have you tried to hold ctrl and alt and then drag around the cube with the first mouse button doen?
[04:12] <tons2000> Intrepid Ibex, my USB mouse appears to be sending two click events and two unclick events... Any ideas how I can correct this?
[04:12] <unop> Grandslammaster, how exactly are you starting apache there?
[04:12] <eseven73> 85? why not port 80 Grandslammaster ?
[04:12] <HacKBoX> ubuntu: how much ram do you have
[04:12] <throwt> ubuntu: you only have 16gb?  depending on what you're doing, just having / may be good enough
[04:12] <Grandslammaster> my bro is using port 80 for his server
[04:12] <transporter> \kira HackBox: tried everything it is something do to with the version of compiz that i have
[04:12] <eseven73> ah
[04:12] <Grandslammaster> my router is set for 85
[04:12] <ubuntu> just dual booting xp and ultimate edition
[04:12] <\kira> transporter: try upgrading, then?
[04:12] <eseven73> did you set that in apache config?
[04:12] <Grandslammaster> yeah
[04:12] <Grandslammaster> i did
[04:13] <HacKBoX> in desktop cube -> Appearance you have the cube cap image set?
[04:13] <Grandslammaster> when i type my ip address into a browser it doesnt get my site
[04:13] <Grandslammaster> i have to use <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:13] <unop> Grandslammaster, how exactly are you starting apache there?
[04:13] <transporter> \kira how do i do that will i lose the settings that i have with the compiz then
[04:13] <HacKBoX> ubuntu How much system memory
[04:13] <ubuntu> I have 1 gig and my swap will be 2 gigs
[04:13] <Grandslammaster> what do u mean
[04:13] <jtaji> anxiolytic: there's some web based tools... http://kuler.adobe.com/  http://colorblender.com/
[04:13] <Grandslammaster> i type in the console apache2ctl -k start
[04:14] <unop> Grandslammaster, i think you forgot sudo there
[04:14] <ubuntu> Im getting 2 more gigs of ram in a couple of weeks
[04:14] <Letter_Z> I'm listening to: Hilltop Hoods - The Hard Road - Conversations from a Speakeasy - (0:32/3:28)
[04:14] <Grandslammaster> ok
[04:14] <Grandslammaster> ill try that
[04:14] <eseven73> Grandslammaster: im not sure your apache is set up to handle more than 1 webserver, if your brother has one on port 80
[04:14] <\kira> transporter: You can back up your settings, then re-install them. This isnt really ubuntu related anymore, and Im not sure how to upgrade, so mabye try asking in #compiz?
[04:14] <jtaji> ubuntu: FYI ubuntu ultimate edition is not supported in here, I would suggest using regular Ubuntu
[04:14] <tons2000> kira - use synaptic?
[04:15] <Grandslammaster> apache2: bad user name ${APACHE_RUN_USER}
[04:15] <HacKBoX> ubuntu: you would be fine with only about a third of that as swap. you should set the home at about 7-8 gig.
[04:15] <Grandslammaster> i got that error message
[04:15] <\kira> transporter: also, have you done a update in a while?
[04:15] <ubuntu> I understand but I am just using the live cd right now and thought my question would be for all distros of linux
[04:15] <jtaji> ubuntu: just for future reference ;)
[04:15] <eseven73> Grandslammaster: what does sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart do?
[04:15] <unop> Grandslammaster, what does this give you?   grep APACHE_RUN_USER /etc/apache2/*
[04:16] <transporter> \kira: my system is up to date it does not have the deformation option in the ccsm u know so that's the reason i cannot see it
[04:16] <ubuntu> jtaji: thanks
[04:16] <tons2000> ubuntu - what question?
[04:16] <\kira> eseven73: it restarts the apache dameon
[04:16] <eseven73> of course
[04:16] <eseven73> im asking him to do that command kira
[04:16] <\kira> eseven73: oh, sorry. lol
[04:16] <eseven73> :)
[04:16] <Grandslammaster> /etc/apache2/apache2.conf:User ${APACHE_RUN_USER}
[04:16] <Grandslammaster> /etc/apache2/envvars:export APACHE_RUN_USER=www-data
[04:16] <Grandslammaster> i get that
[04:16] <ubuntu> 2000: thes sizes of my / and /home partitions
[04:16] <FloodBot2> Grandslammaster: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:17] <dannyperson> thanks Lou for your small, but important, help. Removing libpam-smbpass saved me!
[04:17] <anxiolytic> jtaji: thanks
[04:17] <anxiolytic> I really want some desktop tools. I'm sure there are
[04:17] <KKaren> hello
[04:17] <HacKBoX> transporter: you answered your own question, you could try 'sudo apt-get upgrade' then 'sudo apt-get install compiz'
[04:17] <ubuntu> hackbox: you sure all i need is about 400mB with 1GB ram
[04:17] <Predator>  8-)
[04:18] <eseven73> Grandslammaster: sorry was that for me?
[04:18] <pelao91> any good program for drawing
[04:18] <Grandslammaster> i think so
[04:18] <Grandslammaster> yeah
[04:18] <eseven73> !who | Grandslammaster
[04:18] <\kira> transporter: I dont have a clue why you wouldnt be able to see it. The last thing I can recommend (since im not currently at a computer with compiz on it), is to remove and reinstall compiz and see if that makes a difference. If you cant backup you would loose all your settings (I think). I would recommend asking in #compiz first, before you take a move that drastic
[04:18] <transporter> HackBox: will it mess it up or something
[04:18] <Grandslammaster> what does that mean
[04:18] <jtaji> pelao91: by drawing do you mean vector graphics illustration, or a simple paint program?
[04:19] <marabout> hoping to get an install of 8.04 on my machine which uses via chrome9 HC IGP - any tips...
[04:19] <pelao91> illustration
[04:19] <transporter> \kira i will tell u the version im using does not allow me to do that u know
[04:19] <jtaji> pelao91: inkscape is superb
[04:19] <HacKBoX> ubuntu: No 700 meg, 1/3 2gig you said. You could do without the swap but you would have to have an optimized system
[04:19] <eseven73> Grandslammaster: it means type my name before your responce (if you're repsonding to me that is) responding*
[04:19] <Grandslammaster> it also says when i restart apache that it cannot qualify the domain name
[04:19] <pelao91> cool thanks
[04:19] <transporter> \kira please tell me the command wherein i can actually check the version and then i will tell u
[04:19] <eseven73> Grandslammaster: that part is normal
[04:20] <Grandslammaster> eseven73
[04:20] <HacKBoX> transporter: it will update you repository lists then it will reinstall compiz with the newest version
[04:20] <eseven73> Grandslammaster: the part that isnt normal is all that bit about user error
[04:20] <pelao91> how do i get  it?
[04:20] <\kira> transporter: I forgot to mention what HacKBoX just mentioned, is your respritories up to date?
[04:20] <jtaji> pelao91: sudo aptitude install inkscape
[04:20] <Grandslammaster> so how do i make it work for my ip address
[04:20] <Grandslammaster> eseven73
[04:20] <ubuntu> Ok guys this is what im getting from here "w/ 16GB partition my / should be 8GB /home should be 7GB and the rest for swap
[04:20] <pelao91> thanks
[04:20] <unop> Grandslammaster, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=804436
[04:21] <jtaji> ubuntu: that sounds reasonable
[04:21] <\kira> ubuntu: that sounds like a fair setup to me
[04:21] <LtL> Grandslammaster: you should edit /etc/hosts as such: <IP_ADDRESS> localhost.localdomain localhost myhostname
[04:21] <Grandslammaster> ok
[04:21] <kao> hi
[04:21] <HacKBoX> ubuntu: sounds good to me

[04:22] <con-man> does anyone have suggestions I just wanna play my DVD
[04:22] <ppibburr> is there a deb that fixes transcode?
[04:22] <HacKBoX> transporter \kira try reinstalling it anyways
[04:23] <\kira> transporter: Im out of ideas... Sorry. Its kinda hard to help when im not actually at a system capable of running compiz
[04:23] <LtL> unop: it should see <IP_ADDRESS> and resolve to its fqdn, but the httpd.conf needs to be right.
[04:23] <Grandslammaster> at the top of hosts it has <IP_ADDRESS> localhost
[04:23] <Grandslammaster> then <IP_ADDRESS> justin-laptop
[04:23] <transporter> HackBox: will this screw up my settings
[04:23] <HacKBoX> transporter \kira My compiz runs flawlessly
[04:23] <con-man> I think I have permissions issues
[04:23] <con-man> with playing DVDs
[04:23] <jtaji> con-man: pastebin your full error message
[04:24] <unop> LtL, errm, <IP_ADDRESS> is not <IP_ADDRESS>  - the fqdn of one does not affect the other
[04:24] <con-man> that was it
[04:24] <con-man> all 5 liens
[04:24] <eseven73> con-man: do you have all the codecs?
[04:24] <jtaji> con-man: we didn't see 5 lines
[04:24] <\kira> transporter, HacKBoX: as does mine
[04:24] <LtL> unop: he should have <IP_ADDRESS> also
[04:24] <unop> Grandslammaster, i suggest you work on getting apache operational first
[04:24] <\kira> transporter: what version of ubuntu are you running? | HacKBoX
[04:24] <unop> LtL, sure - but that's somewhat besides the point
[04:24] <transporter> \kira and Hackbox lucky people
[04:24] <con-man> http://pastebin.com/m189f13e1

[04:28] <transporter> \kira: of course
[04:28] <eseven73> Grandslammaster: sorry was away, um no clue man
[04:28] <jtaji> rohil: beginning or end doesn't matter, just depends on what order you are making the partitions and where you want them... I usually work left to right
[04:28] <Grandslammaster> u dont no how to do that
[04:28] <eseven73> Paradoxx: i'd use thunderbird

[04:31] <Grandslammaster> for apache2 how do i specify my domain name

[04:32] <Grandslammaster> e
[04:32] <kerry_> it was working fine before i tried to remove GDM!!
[04:32] <LtL> Grandslammaster: if you have a permanent ip, i would use the <IP_ADDRESS> line in  /etc/hosts. just my experience.
[04:32] <skooz1> how do you fix loading windows i select it and ubuntu loads
[04:32] <Grandslammaster> so what do i do in hosts
[04:33] <donavan> jtaji: reading the man ... but im unsure on something ... will it check usb drives or just the main system drive ?

[04:34] <Trikster> I am currently downloading Ubuntu for the first time; is there anything I should be aware of before installing it?
[04:34] <tritium> Trikster: read the release notes, for one thing.
[04:34] <mdg> Trikster: have you used Ubuntu before?
[04:34] <Trikster> No, I haven't, mdg.
[04:35] <jtaji> donavan: you can check any drive you want, it has to be unmounted first which is why that factoid mentioned checking on startup
[04:35] <HacKBoX> donavan: it should check anything with a readable partition table
[04:35] <Trikster> tritium, I will look for those.
[04:35] <mdg> Trikster: just play with the live cd some before you install - kick the tires so to speak
[04:35] <sysdoc> Trikster, yea, this is gonna be a jourley that'll change you life
[04:35] <Grandslammaster> LtL right now i am just trying to make it so when i type my ip in a browser my site will show up
[04:35] <Grandslammaster> i dont have an actual domain
[04:35] <donavan> jtaji, hackbox :  thanks
[04:36] <mdg> Trikster: have you used linux at all?
[04:36] <marabout> Need some help - im looking to install hardy on my machine as intrepid would not display after install - any thing i should know before beginning
[04:36] <Trikster> No, this is my first time, mdg.
[04:36] <Trikster> The only experience I have with linux is through web servers.
[04:36] <jtaji> donavan: so you would unmount it first and then fsck /dev/sdb1 or whatever your device is
[04:36] <mdg> Trikster: Take it slow
[04:36] <mdg> Trikster: What kind of computer do you have?
[04:36] <Trikster> Eh
[04:37] <marabout> im using a stepnote nc1502
[04:37] <Trikster> Not too up to date on it's specs.
[04:37] <Grandslammaster> LtL so instead of using <IP_ADDRESS> in a browser i need <IP_ADDRESS> to work
[04:37] <sysdoc> Trikster, Cool thin is that you can now have your own apache server...:)
[04:37] <Trikster> According to the release notes, I have more than enough ram, so I think I should be good.
[04:37] <mdg> Mac or PC, older or new like dual core?
[04:37] <donavan> jtaji: got ya ... thoughts thats what it was but im doing about 5 things at once so its taking me a bit to get through it
[04:37] <Trikster> PC older.
[04:37] <Trikster> No dual

[04:41] <cvd-pr> so how to blacklist wine in compiz?
[04:41] <Grandslammaster> for apache2 server
[04:41] <Bear7809> Hi guys. I have a problem.
[04:41] <LtL> Grandslammaster: apache2 in ubuntu has a httpd.conf but the actual conf used is named 'default' in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default. or used to be. try http://apache.org
[04:42] <Grandslammaster> ok
[04:42] <LtL> Grandslammaster: you must edit that file or forget it!
[04:42] <Grandslammaster> so i have to modify my default in sites-available
[04:42] <Grandslammaster> ok
[04:42] <jesus_> this is frustrating... i have to set cap lock on all the time...
[04:43] <Bear7809> When i get to the splash screen my monitor goes black. But ubuntu is still runing. If i try to make it log in by guessing what im putting it it logs in just fine. My card is an ATI card and i ubuntu running on another computer howerver it has an nvidia card. Any ideas how i can get this fixed
[04:43] <Bear7809> I heared it might be a problem with the splash screen resolution, but how do i just fix that.
[04:43] <passive1> What is the best P2P ? something like bearshare ?
[04:43] <donavan> jtaji , hackbox:  ok so how do I know where my drive is once its unmounted ... it normally shows up as /media/disk but once its unmounted its not under that anymore
[04:43] <pelao91> llime wire

[04:44] <jtaji> donavan: when it's mounted do type 'mount' and find the the line with /media/disk
[04:44] <donavan> gotcha
[04:44] <passive1> what is ! thing ?
[04:44] <jtaji> passive1: it tells the bot to give someone information
[04:45] <Bear7809> is this working?
[04:45] <passive1> okay I'll give them a shot thanks all
[04:45] <tritium> Bear7809: yes
[04:45] <PRIVATE_PARTY_EX> surabaya
[04:45] <Bear7809> did you see my question?
[04:45] <mdg> Bear7809: Do you even get a command prompt?
[04:45] <jadedoto1> Bear7809: Yes I can see your messages
[04:46] <Bear7809> no the monitor recieves no signal
[04:46] <Bear7809> i can get one by doing ctrl atl f1
[04:46] <lacita> I just extracted a tar.bz... where did it extract to? and what file do I sudo make?
[04:46] <Bear7809> the monitor turns back on and i get a command prompt to log in
[04:46] <eseven73> !who | Bear7809
[04:46] <itzhero> How do I set my printer (in CUPS) to print the last page first, so its on the bottom of the stack?
[04:47] <Bear7809> !tab
[04:47] <donavan> jtaji: thanks again ... its been years since I have really used linux (were talking 386/486 days) and I just cant remember anything and then have changed stuff a good deal so its all kinds of fun figuring stuff out again
[04:47] <LtL> Bear7809: try looking this page over, you should be able to fix it via cli, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplash
[04:47] <eseven73> that !tab does not explain it well enough, Bear7809 basically you just type the first couple letters of someones nick and press Tab key
[04:48]  * nnull pushes TAB and hold's paper cup under A: drive waiting patiently
[04:48] <jeanphilippe> Bear7809: lpoptions -d<printer> -o outputorder=reverse
[04:48] <LtL> jeanphilippe: tell itzhero that answer :)
[04:49] <jp_sf> LtL: Ah get confused here
[04:49] <jp_sf> itzhero: lpoptions -d<printer> -o outputorder=reverse
[04:50] <jp_sf> Bear7809: sorry ...
[04:50] <itzhero> judr drop that in commandline? with my printer in place of <printer> ?
[04:50] <itzhero> just*
[04:50] <Bear7809> jp_sf: its ok
[04:50] <jp_sf> itzhero: yes I print from the command line
[04:50] <Bear7809> LtL: so you think i should change the theme of my usplash?
[04:51] <eseven73> itzhero: 99% of the commands people tell you to run here, should be put in a terminal :)
[04:51] <mdg> Bear7809: Is this a live cd or a regular install?
[04:51] <jp_sf> eseven73: true very true
[04:51] <itzhero> eseven73, yeah i figured, but i mentioned cups so i wasn't too sure
[04:51] <Bear7809> mdg: regular install via the cd they sent me in the mail
[04:51] <donavan> anyone done a software raid on ubuntu ?  performance wise is it worth doing or should I get a card
[04:51] <LtL> Bear7809: i'm saying it might refresh the usplash and get it to work, not necessarily change it
[04:52] <veggteppe> any1 that can tell me what ubuntu version that work's best for games?
[04:52] <mdg> Bear7809: If its a live cd they sent, try booting from it once and see what happens
[04:52] <Bear7809> LtL: gotcha, ill try to do that.
[04:52] <Bear7809> mdg: so pop it in restart the compy and boot from the cd?
[04:52] <jp_sf> donavan: depends what you want to acheive
[04:53] <\kira> How can I set the time via the command line?
[04:53] <mdg> Bear7809: Yes.  Watch how it boots from the live cd and maybe you can catch where it is messing up.
[04:53] <jp_sf> \kira: date
[04:53] <Bear7809> I think that its the video card. Ubuntu works fine on my parents compy which has an NVidia card.
[04:53] <LtL> Bear7809: it wont hurt to changeit, i like xubuntu better myself, but i use ubuntu
[04:53] <\kira> jp_sf: thanks
[04:53] <itzhero> jp_sf: when i run lpoptions it tells me that outputorder=reverse
[04:53] <itzhero> however it still prints the same direction
[04:54] <Bear7809> ive heard of a video safe mode. i bet i have to install the latest drivers for the card in ubuntu. im not so sure how to get that done or do the video safe mode.
[04:54] <jp_sf> itzhero: hum , must come from your config file
[04:54] <LtL> \kira: with the date command. man date
[04:55] <FearMoth> Hi, is there a LiveCD that I can use to stress-test my machine? Is there anything on the Ubuntu Live CD? Any recommendations?
[04:55] <lacita> Sorry all, had to help my dad... He's sick. Anyways, I still have no sound. I compiled ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.18a.tar.bz2 , but cant getit to sudo make install.
[04:55] <mdg> Bear7809: You can pick safe from the boot menu that pops up when you run the cd
[04:55] <LtL> \kira: in other words mandate the date ;)
[04:55] <itzhero> jp_sf, do I need to restart cups?
[04:55] <\kira> LtL: :D
[04:55] <jp_sf> itzhero: edit /etc/cups/ppd/<yourprinter>.ppd and set the Defaultoutputorder to reverse
[04:56] <donavan> jp_sf ... to be honest ... I don't really know ... kind of one of those things where I have a bunch of old hardware and I really want a raid array for the hell of it and the extra storage would be nice too ... but if its going to be stupid slow I am going to need to put it on other machine and network it to my main PC
[04:56] <\kira> LtL: Just a question, though. Just after setting it, My screen turned itself off..... Im wondering if this is coincidence or if something happened there....
[04:56] <cuddlefish> can someone help with a python issue?
[04:56] <LtL> itzhero: sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart
[04:56] <\kira> LtL: because it happened like the second I hit the enter button
[04:57] <LtL> \kira: strange, probably time drift or something
[04:57] <cuddlefish> How do I reinstall python?
[04:57] <\kira> LtL: oh, that would make sense :) Thats kinda cool ;)
[04:58] <passive1> FrostWire is far away from BearShare it even gives a fake results alot
[04:58] <jp_sf> donavan: I never setup raid on a IDE or sata disk with a rpm of 7200, I usually do that on SCSI 10000 rpm with RAID 5 I never saw a slow down, it depends a lot of the hardisk, cache speed etc etc
[04:59] <pelao91> passive1: is limewire
[04:59] <hckyplayer024> hi can someone help me with ubuntu not finding all available wireless networks
[04:59] <cuddlefish> How do I reinstall python? (pythonpath is messed up)
[04:59] <LtL> \kira: best way to configure printers is from a browser http://localhost:631
[04:59] <marabout> trying to run apt-get update via terminal but keep getting "failed to fetch" errors - any ideas what I can do?
[04:59] <passive1> pelao91, Now I am downloading limewire to see
[04:59] <\kira> LtL: I dont want to configure printers... Thanks for the info, though ;)
[04:59] <Deadboys> im having a problem when trying to add a user
[04:59] <Deadboys> -bash: useradd: command not found
[05:00] <pelao91> ok that is the best
[05:00] <itzhero> Thanks guys, printer's working.  How do I keep my motd file from changing back to the Ubuntu default?
[05:00] <\kira> Deadboys: adduser is the command, I believe
[05:01] <donavan> jp_sf: yeah I know scsi is the way to go but I only have a few 4g scsi drives which is hardly worth it ... but I have some bigger IDEs Im not so much worried about the drives so much as how its going to hit my processor ... am I looking at some serious slowdown?
[05:01] <Ronen> Hello...
[05:01] <itzhero> Hi.
[05:01] <pelao91> hola
[05:01] <Deadboys> \kira no it is useradd
[05:01] <mamaro> Hello
[05:01] <Trikster> What apps will I loose when I switch to Linux?
[05:01] <Ronen> How is everyone...I have a quick question, hopefully you can help...
[05:01] <Deadboys> does anyone have any idea why useradd isnt working for me?
[05:02] <Deadboys> im logged in as root
[05:02] <Trikster> lose*
[05:02] <CarlFK> Deadboys: are you running ubuntu?
[05:02] <mamaro> Trikster I still use windows for photoshop, GIMP doesn't do it for me.
[05:02] <jp_sf> donavan: usually devs and people are the first to scream at hardisk performance I have usually checked throughly with sar (and ksar (for the nice graphic output)) I never saw a problem, your IDE controller might be abigger bottleneck, if you have the luxury try monitor it with sar (sysutils package)
[05:02] <Americun> What is the best podcast manager for ubuntu?
[05:02] <dscvlt> is there a log file for the "Leave Message" option when my screen is locked in X?
[05:02] <t94xr_laptop> anyone else with a sony ericsson phone? Im having trouble getting ubuntu 8.10 to recognise my phone at all - even in usb mode..
[05:03] <Ronen> I can't get a screen resolution any higher than 1024 x 768
[05:03] <Deadboys> CarlFK would i be in #ubuntu if i wasnt
[05:03] <Trikster> mamaro, you mean that Linux doesn't have Photoshop?
[05:03] <Ronen> I used to be able to get a resolution much higher than that...
[05:03] <CarlFK> Deadboys: how/why did you log in as root?
[05:03] <Ronen> but then I tried to install the NVidia drivers for my video card and it didn't work..
[05:03] <Psyrix21> quick question, i am doing a dual boot, with two HD's. I'm getting ready to install Ubuntu. Should i have the HD with windows on it, the primary HD? or does it matter?
[05:04] <jinja-sheep> !dualboot
[05:04] <Ronen> but I was unable to get any higher resolution than 1024 x 768..
[05:04] <Deadboys> CarlFK i logged in my dedi as root because that is the only user i have at the moment
[05:04] <Deadboys> hence me trying to create another one
[05:04] <CShadowRun> psycodad ubuntu will install a boot loader onto the primary drive by default to give you grub
[05:04] <CShadowRun> (i think)
[05:04] <donavan> jp_sf: will do thanks ... one other question ... can I do a mirrored raid for to os drive ... I know in windows its a big no-no but can linux do this to make the OS a little snappier ?
[05:05] <mdg> Deadboys: What happens why you type "whereis adduser?"
[05:05] <CarlFK> Deadboys: dedi?
[05:05] <CShadowRun> donavan windows can do it, my old windows system used to be raid0
[05:05] <Deadboys> CarlFK Dedicated server
[05:05] <Deadboys> adduser: /etc/adduser.conf /usr/share/adduser /usr/share/man/man8/adduser.8.gz
[05:05] <Deadboys> thats what happens mdg
[05:05] <Psyrix21> blah blah read that link
[05:05] <mdg> Deadboys: should be in sbin
[05:05] <jinja-sheep> Psyrix21:  Linux don't require lot of spaces.  I suppose you should save all your personal data / private data / only-god-know-what data on the second hard drive.
[05:06] <nickrud> t94xr_laptop, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/306721
[05:06] <LtL> Deadboys: mdg is right, or use the gui
[05:06] <\kira> Deadboys: yep, its adduser
[05:06] <Psyrix21> there is no data on the second HD, just finished formatting it
[05:06] <t94xr_laptop> nickrud, thanks i'll take a look
[05:06] <Deadboys> LtL gui is not an option
[05:06] <jp_sf> donavan: on the same drive ? no don't do it
[05:07] <Deadboys> mdg how do go about fixing it just move to sbin?
[05:07] <donavan> CshadowsRun: was that a hardware raid ... or did they change something on me and I didnt catch it ... I know that as of server 2000 running any dynamic disk couldnt be done on the OS partition because of booting issues with the bios or something
[05:07] <mdg> Deadboys: What do you get when you type "who"
[05:07] <jtaji> Deadboys: maybe you don't have /usr/sbin in your path? try /usr/sbin/adduser
[05:07] <marabout> lost my internet connection or so it seems in terminal can you help me check if I am still connected
[05:07] <donavan> jp_sf: 2 physical drives acting as one
[05:07] <Deadboys> jtaji no just file
[05:07] <marabout> I'm trying to apt-get install updated but keep getting error messages
[05:07] <Ronen> Anyone know about fixing video resolution problems??
[05:08] <Americun> did anyone answer my question?
[05:08] <Deadboys> mdg root     pts/1        Jan  5 04:15
[05:08] <Deadboys> then my ip and host
[05:08] <Americun> I asked what the best podcast manager is for ubuntu
[05:08] <nickrud> marabout, try  sudo apt-get -f install   if it fails, put the complete output on http://paste.ubuntu.com
[05:08] <jtaji> Deadboys: huh?
[05:08] <marabout> hello
[05:08] <provo> sorry for the silly question but when I open my usb flash drive in ubuntu 8.10 and delete a file from the drive how much my space is not freed up?   the only other way I know is to format the usb drive complete and I do not want to keep doing this
[05:08] <Deadboys> jtaji you asked a question i responded
[05:08] <Jack_Sparrow> provo, look for a .Trash folder on that drivve
[05:08] <mdg> Deadboys: then useradd is not in your path -- try /usr/sbin/adduser
[05:09] <marabout> im in root from recovery menu do i need to type 'sudo'?
[05:09] <Deadboys> when i tried /usr/sbin/adduser
[05:09] <mdg> Deadboys: then try /usr/sbin/adduser
[05:09] <nickrud> marabout, are you sure the package name is updated ? I'm not showing it as existing (and no about sudo in recovery)
[05:09] <Deadboys> mdg i tried  it
[05:09] <jp_sf> donavan: I wouldn't bother for the OS as it is the easiest things to recover but yes
[05:09] <LtL> Deadboys: youre missing the adduser in /usr/sbin/ try apt-get adduser
[05:09] <provo> jack:  i see it,  i see the files and just tried to delete them but after i delete them they come back
[05:10] <donavan> provo: did the same thing ... dump the trash ... it still in the trash bin and still takes up space .... it got me too at first
[05:10] <hckyplayer024> soooooo im trying to connect ubuntu to my wireless network. and if i change my network to WEP security it can find it no problem but when its WPA2 it wont find it at all.
[05:10] <Deadboys> LtL it says i already have it
[05:10] <PRIVATE_PARTY_EX> #surabaya
[05:10] <Deadboys> how can i remove it and reget it
[05:10] <provo> donavan: so what can i do to get rid of these files without formatting the entire flash drive again?
[05:10] <LtL> Deadboys: your whereis output doesnt agree with you
[05:10] <donavan> jp_sf: I was actuall thinking of the performance boost no so much the recovery aspect
[05:11] <Deadboys> root@axis:~# whereis adduser
[05:11] <Deadboys> adduser: /etc/adduser.conf /usr/share/adduser /usr/share/man/man8/adduser.8.gz
[05:11] <donavan> provo just delete them and then empty your trash can
[05:11] <jp_sf> donavan: I think it will not be significant
[05:11] <Deadboys> it says i already have it when i typed apt-get install adduser
[05:11] <jp_sf> hckyplayer024: have you tried Wicd ?
[05:12] <hckyplayer024> jp_sf: yeah i am actually using Wicd now
[05:12] <LtL> Deadboys: that doesnt show the adduser binary, just the conf and man pages
[05:12] <marabout> nickrud: info pasted
[05:12] <nickrud> marabout, I need the link :)
[05:12] <Deadboys> well its not letting me install it since it says i already have it
[05:12] <Deadboys> what should i do about that
[05:12] <donavan> sp_sf : thats what I was figuring but I wanted someone else to talk me down from jumping off the cliff
[05:12] <LtL> Deadboys: somehow its lost, force re-install w/apt-get
[05:12] <Wicked> !unetbootin
[05:12] <provo> donovan: thanks i see how that works now.. silly me
[05:12] <\kira> Deadboys: okay then. thats why im looking at the man page right now "adduser, addgroup - add a user or group to the system"
[05:12] <\kira> Deadboys: Exact quote
[05:12] <marabout> nickrud: not accessing irc from that machine as it is not ready trying to get ubuntu onto it
[05:13] <\kira> Deadboys: I just answered your question!
[05:13] <marabout> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu.com/100056/
[05:13] <\kira> Deadboys: I just added a user to my system, just to be double sure
[05:13] <\kira> can anyone read this, or is my internet messed up again?
[05:13] <\kira> CarlFK: you can log in as root via sudo su, or sudo passwd to change the password
[05:13] <Deadboys> LtL how do i force re-install
[05:13] <\kira> can anybody read this?
[05:13] <marabout> \kira: i am reading it
[05:13] <LtL> Deadboys: let me look
[05:14] <CShadowRun> Does anyone know a reverse VNC server for ubuntu?
[05:14] <bullgard4> devices.txt calls (217,0) /dev/curf0 a "callout device for rfcomm0". What is a 'callout device'?
[05:14] <cafuego> a vnc client, you mean?
[05:14] <CShadowRun> cafuego no i mean a reverse VNC server
[05:14] <donavan> provo: don't feel bad it pissed me off for 20 mins or so first time I tried it
[05:14] <marabout> nickrud: was the link valid?
[05:14] <CShadowRun> cafuego that is, a server that connects to a client in order to traverse a NAT
[05:14] <nickrud> marabout, are you sure that's the complete name of the package? apt-cache search updated shows no package updated here, and I have good sources
[05:15] <cafuego> CShadowRun: I shouldn't think so.
[05:15] <CShadowRun> cafuego ?
[05:15] <cafuego> CShadowRun: Is this why we tunnel over ssh.
[05:15] <LtL> Deadboys: try sudo apt-get install adduser --reinstall
[05:15] <jp_sf> CShadowRun: only if the other end click on a file
[05:15] <marabout> nickrud: no im probably wrong - just trying to update which I assume is just apt-get update - correct
[05:15] <jp_sf> CShadowRun: otherwise I don't know
[05:15] <Deadboys> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
[05:16] <CShadowRun> jp_sf yes the other end can install and do simple things
[05:16] <CShadowRun> jp_sf i'm just trying to help a friend and don't want to go through port forwarding.
[05:16] <jigpe> hello how to burn a movie?so that I could play it to my dvdcd component player
[05:16] <nickrud> marabout, yes. you typed updated :)   apt-get update will update any packages that have new releases, if you're on the net
[05:16] <LtL> Deadboys: i may have that syntax out of order
[05:16] <Deadboys> it installed
[05:16] <jp_sf> CShadowRun: I did that with x11vnc, but I did a port forwarding on my end
[05:16] <Deadboys> well
[05:16] <Deadboys> it started to
[05:16] <Deadboys> then i got that message
[05:17] <FloodBot2> Deadboys: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:17] <CShadowRun> jp_sf yes, exactly!, port forwarding at my end so the client can connect to me
[05:17] <CShadowRun> jp_sf how did you do it? :)
[05:17] <marabout> nickrud: you saw the link it does not appear to me that I am connected how can I check my connection?
[05:17] <Deadboys> LtL should i just do a fresh install of Ubuntu?
[05:18] <jigpe> how to burn an 651MB .avi movie into the blank cd?I tried to use gnome and brasero even k3b but no options for burning video...
[05:18] <nickrud> marabout, hm, brain fart. apt-get update gets the latest list of packages, apt-get upgrade gets any that have upgrades available.   apt-get update && apt-get upgrade   will do the trick
[05:18] <Deadboys> or Debian acctually since ubuntu gives me so many problems
[05:18] <WastePotato> How do I configure X to use the xserver-xorg-video-radeon driver? I have it installed, but changed to fglrx driver to see if there would be a difference in perfomance. I was wrong. -_-
[05:18] <yaris1234567890> how do i make wget download in the background? doing this doesn't work. wget -x -nH http://www.something.com > /dev/null &, this still outputs the whole download progress
[05:18] <cafuego> CShadowRun: Port forwarding is what you do on your router/gateway. You forward port XXX to the vnc port on the target server.
[05:18] <nickrud> marabout, ifconfig  will show any network connections. If you're in recovery mode, you would have to connect manually
[05:19] <nickrud> marabout, unless you've created a network config file,  /etc/network/interfaces  with the proper options
[05:19] <jp_sf> CShadowRun: yes so you do TCP port forward on your router port 5500 to the internal IP you want (of your computer I assume)install x11vnc on the other end at the friend linux then on your computer don't forget to vncviewer - listen 0  and that's it the remote friend needs to type x11vnc - connect your.current.ip:5500
[05:19] <cafuego> yaris1234567890: it does run in the background, but you forgot the -q flag for no output.
[05:19] <yaris1234567890> ohhhh
[05:19] <tbonechic> wow, there's a lot of ppl on here..
[05:19] <CShadowRun> jp_sf thank you, exactly what i wanted *hug*
[05:19] <yaris1234567890> wget -x -q -nH http://www.something.com > /dev/null &   ?
[05:20] <marabout> nickrud: no I have not created a network config file - what msg in the ifconfig output will indicate that I am connected
[05:21] <jp_sf> CShadowRun: you are welcome one thing though, it is quite often that people scan IP so when you don't need it put your firewall on
[05:21] <cyorxamp> Does anyone here have one of those pre-installed ubuntu's on a Dell laptop (maybe an inspiron 1525)... if so could you show me your xorg.conf please? :D
[05:21] <tbonechic> I have a question: I have mplayer and I run it through x11, but it never plays properly. :( any suggestions?
[05:21] <CShadowRun> jp_sf don't worry, i'm running a FreeBSD firewall, ;)
[05:21] <LtL> Deadboys: no i don't think thats needed. hang on
[05:21] <cafuego> or tunnel vnc over ssh, so it cna't be sniffed either
[05:21] <tbonechic> cryptnix: I have intrepid running on a latidude D630.  will that do?
[05:22] <Deadboys> LtL i got it sorted out
[05:22] <Deadboys> thanks though
[05:22] <nickrud> marabout, it formats as stanzas; lo is the loopback (internal machine) net, you most likely would have an eth0 stanza, with inet addr xx.xx.xx.xx in the second line of it.
[05:22] <jp_sf> CShadowRun: ipf is fine on your router or your machine ?
[05:22] <cyorxamp> tbonechic, if your talking to me, then does that use GM965 / X3100 intel graphics?#
[05:22] <CShadowRun> jp_sf i use pfSense on one of my old boxes, set it up last week :)
[05:22] <radicaljoe> marabout>Can you ping your router or gateway?
[05:22] <jp_sf> CShadowRun: I change the config on my router when it is not needed
[05:23] <tbonechic> cyorxamp: no. leme chek
[05:23] <CShadowRun> jp_sf yes i also do that, so no worries, i know my way around :)
[05:23] <marabout> nickrud: "Link encap: Local loopback inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS>"  is some of what the  text read
[05:23] <darren_> hi guys any one now how to use the net sharing tool for iphone with ubuntu?
[05:23] <jp_sf> CShadowRun: one thing you want to look also is port knocking it is quite useful
[05:23] <buck> hello ...
[05:24] <Deadboys> Would it be unwise to install Unreal IRCD 3.2.7 as root?
[05:24] <buck> having problems with restricted drivers 177
[05:24] <nickrud> marabout, yeah, that's the internal network. It doesn't see the internet. another stanza will show your connection to a router 192.xx.xx.xx most likely
[05:24] <buck> any good URL that really shows how to resolve the xorg issu
[05:24] <buck> e
[05:24] <tbonechic> cyorxamp: it's a GM965/GL960 intel graphics card.
[05:25] <cyorxamp> tbonechic, thats the one :D
[05:25] <tbonechic> would that be of any help
[05:25] <tbonechic> woot!
[05:25] <LtL> Deadboys: you need to be root/sudo to  install ircd
[05:25] <tbonechic> what is it that u need?
[05:25] <cyorxamp> tbonechic, the same 8.04 that came with it?
[05:25] <nickrud> Deadboys, install as root, but run it as a non-privileged user, the config probably has provisions for that
[05:25] <marabout> nickrud:  -- next info is mask no other info beyond RX, TX ,etc is shwoing. BTW my goal on irc is to get help to  wipe the existing 8.10 which isnt working and install Hardy via Live CD
[05:26] <tbonechic> cyorxamp: no, I installed it via LiveCD and upgraded to Intrepid
[05:26] <Deadboys> there isnt any provisions like that in the config for it
[05:26] <Deadboys> would it be bad to run as root?
[05:26] <HellFire-Au> Can anyone help me set up a bi-directional nat?
[05:26] <marabout> Nickrud: since I assume I cannot connect to Net this way since I have not set up a network config file as you mentioned previously correct?
[05:26] <joejc> i there a way i can save my files to some kind of internet drive. i used gmail on ubuntu
[05:26] <LtL> Deadboys: just install/edit  config and start as root.
[05:26] <joejc> is*
[05:26] <nickrud> marabout, simply boot up the cd and run the install on the same partition as the 8.10 install. Part of the default install is wiping out whatever was on the partition already :)
[05:26] <buck> Any news if they fixed the problem with the nvidia 177 drivers. everytime i try to activate it when i reboot just goes to a text screen
[05:27] <cyorxamp> tbonechic, might be worth a look anyway, just wondered if I could looksie at your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[05:27] <LtL> Deadboys: once installed, use your ircd pass for priveleges
[05:27] <tbonechic> sure thing.  I'll msg u what I have once I copy it ^_^
[05:27] <nickrud> Deadboys, almost certainly
[05:27] <cyorxamp> tbonechic, pop it in a nopate
[05:27] <marabout> nickrud: i was hoping to use 8.04 alternate but after downloading it was 800+mb and can fit that on the cd's I have...
[05:27] <Deadboys> LtL what do you mean by that
[05:27] <tbonechic> cyorxamp: ...?
[05:28] <cyorxamp> tbonechic, http://paste.ubuntu.com
[05:28] <dft> what's the best way to restart nautilus without logging in and out again?
[05:28] <dft> or rebooting
[05:28] <yaris1234567890> wow i got banned from centos for ignoring an annoying fart
[05:28] <PriceChild> !offtopic | yaris1234567890
[05:28] <nickrud> marabout, something wrong with your download; the alternate iso is 699 mb
[05:28] <LtL> Deadboys: give yourself an O-line  with htpasswd and ip in ircd.conf  edit that file carefully
[05:28] <radicaljoe> marabout:Is you network interface wired of wifi?
[05:29] <LtL> Deadboys: just read the ircd.conf carefully.
[05:29] <Deadboys> Oh i didnt realise you were talking about that im very familiar to unreal ircd was just wondering if running it as root would cause any security issues
[05:29] <william56> during the cli's hardware detecting portion, it's sitting at 0%, and the screen has gone black, then gone white, then back to the hardware installation screen, and now it's all black with two lines that just say 'illed' at bottom
[05:29] <Nautilus___> Can anyone tell me how to install GD gfx toolkit on current ubuntu? I'm a *nix newb but have managed the whole LAMP stack but I guess GD is separate.
[05:30] <william56> anyone know what just happened to my install?
[05:30] <nickrud> Deadboys, running internet facing processes as root is dangerous; for example apache runs a www-data. But LtL obviously knows how unreal handles that security.
[05:30] <buck> ... is there a good URL that addresses the restricted drivers issue with the nvidia 177 drivers
[05:30] <LtL> Deadboys: it will be a root owned process thats all.
[05:30] <not_a_jewel> join #makassar
[05:30] <marabout> nickrud: yes I am using wifi
[05:31] <nickrud> marabout, if at all possible, wire up during the alternate install. It's much easier that way.
[05:31] <Deadboys> one more question can you give me the full syntax of the adduser command
[05:31] <dft> or rebooting

[05:32] <marabout> ncikrud: as I downloaded the file on another machine
[05:32] <cyorxamp> Nautilus___, php5-gd
[05:32] <Nautilus___> cyorxamp: not seeing it. looked for stucff like php5-gd
[05:32] <william56> is there a way to access the cli command from a regular ubuntu install cd?
[05:32] <cyorxamp> Nautilus___, it's in my repo
[05:33] <Daejeo> hello guys greeting :)
[05:33] <Daejeo> happy new year
[05:33] <Nautilus___> cyorxamp: I go from phpgacl to to php-geshi
[05:33] <WastePotato> How do I configure X to use the xserver-xorg-video-radeon driver? I have it installed, but changed to fglrx driver to see if there would be a difference in perfomance. I was wrong. -_-
[05:33] <marabout> nickrud: so just exit root pop in Hardy CD and reboot making sure Hardy Cd is the boot CD?
[05:33] <nickrud> marabout, yep
[05:33] <cyorxamp> Nautilus___, http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/php5-gd

[05:34] <joejc>  is there a way i can save my files to some kind of Internet drive. i used gmail on xp
[05:34] <buck> ... is there a good URL that addresses the restricted drivers issue with the nvidia 177 drivers
[05:34] <LtL> WastePotato: you need to uninstall fglrx, i forgot myself, i hated it
[05:34] <tbonechic> would anyone know as to why x11 might be broken?
[05:34] <marabout> nickrud: will this automatically be a LiveCD install or am I missing or misunderstanding something re: LiveCD versus install
[05:34] <gnu2it2> what is good way to backup my desktop to bootable cd/dvd ? I do not need an enterprise setup
[05:34] <orkan> Hey guys... I somehow created a hardlink to a directory... and now I cannot remove it. Is there a way?
[05:34] <nickrud> marabout, if it's a desktop iso it will be the livecd install, yes. The alternate will give you a text installer.
[05:35] <HermanDE> Has anybody been successful with bzflag on 8.10?
[05:35] <HellFire-Au> Can anyone help me set up a bi-directional nat?
[05:35] <cyorxamp> tbonechic, thats your -complete- xorg.conf? it's missing loads
[05:35] <WastePotato> Yep. Done that. I have no Compiz. :(
[05:35] <darren_> hi guys any one now how to use the net sharing tool(iphonemodem2) for iphone with ubuntu?
[05:35] <Ian00> orkan: its not possible to do that
[05:35] <jtaji> orkan: unlink
[05:35] <Ian00> and if you did, you would just delete it
[05:36] <Nautilus___> cyorxamp: do you know which repo it's in? I have main and universe ON, multiverse OFF
[05:36] <tbonechic> cyorxamp: ... that what I got. I'll check again
[05:36] <marabout> nickrud: just pulled Cd out of my laptop bag and it is labeled 7.1 -that is still Hardy right? BTW im installing onto a laptop
[05:36] <orkan> unlink tells me that "it is a directory"
[05:36] <nickrud> marabout, no, hardy is 8.04
[05:36] <orkan> and somehow if I create a file in this folder it appears in another one that I hard linked to
[05:36] <cyorxamp> Nautilus___, no idea... use that ubuntu link I gave you - my servers don't run something as silly as Ubuntu, Debian all the way
[05:36] <nickrud> marabout, and it makes no difference if it is a laptop or desktop
[05:36] <orkan> and ls does not show it as being a symlink
[05:37] <cyorxamp> tbonechic, no it has all the right sections, just bugger all in each of them
[05:37] <buck> ... is there a good URL that addresses the restricted drivers issue with the nvidia 177 drivers
[05:37] <buck> ... is there a good URL that addresses the restricted drivers issue with the nvidia 177 drivers
[05:37] <buck> ... is there a good URL that addresses the restricted drivers issue with the nvidia 177 drivers
[05:37] <FloodBot2> buck: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:37] <Ian00> orkan, rm -rf dir
[05:37] <WastePotato> So. Anyone have any ideas?
[05:37] <Nautilus___> cyorxamp: yes the link is most helpful, tx!  Just need this box for a couple weeks (a project)
[05:37] <Wicked> i need to use the alternative cd to install ubuntu...but i have no working cdrom...how can i install with the alternative cd?
[05:37] <orkan> heh, but I want the data to be preserved...
[05:37] <orkan> I need just the link to be removed
[05:37] <joejc> is there a program that will autamaticly sync files with a website
[05:37] <orkan> if I try to rename - mv says it is being used
[05:38] <marabout> nickrud: oh yeah that's right too much info in the head. We'll I've got either 7.1 or 8.10 and 8.10 wont display graphics after the install - what do you suggest?
[05:38] <HermanDE> Wicked: Use a netboot.....
[05:38] <nickrud> !install > Wicked (there are some non-cdrom techniques here)
[05:38] <Ian00> orkan, like i said, which you ignored. its not possible for it to be a hard link. you can't hard link directories
[05:38] <Ian00> do
[05:38] <orkan> although I can rename the actual folder no problem
[05:38] <Daejeo> i want to make an image consist of ubunto base files and certain more voip applications. if user wants to install it from cd, and then the installation should go smoothly and automatically.  can i see how to doc?
[05:38] <Ian00> $ file your_directory
[05:38] <nickrud> marabout, what video card? How many video cards in the machine?
[05:38] <cyorxamp> OK Does anyone here have a PRE-installed Dell Laptop?
[05:38] <Wicked> HermanDE, the netboot has the same options as the alternative cd? i need to be able to encrypt the driver during install...which only the alternative cd offers
[05:39] <sohail> is there a dummies guide to creating installation packages for ubuntu
[05:39] <marabout> nickrud: via chrome9 HC IGP - 1 card as far as I  know
[05:39] <HermanDE> Wicked: that should have been.... PXEBOOT...
[05:39] <bullgard4> devices.txt calls (217,0) /dev/curf0 a "callout device for rfcomm0". What is a 'callout device'?
[05:39] <HermanDE> Wicked: It is a method of booting a device from a network server....
[05:39] <nickrud> marabout, ah, chrome9. I have had really bad luck helping people with that in intrepid ;(
[05:39] <Wicked> HermanDE, hmm..im not sure i understand what u are saying.
[05:39] <HermanDE> Wicked: Then installing from the server...
[05:40] <HermanDE> Wicked: Most newer systems have the ability to boot from the network.
[05:40] <Foncy> Hey folks, is there any way to unmount a partition that uses /home as mountpoint?
[05:40] <tbonechic> um, whoever needed the backup on CD/DVD, I think this might help: http://tinyurl.com/862ozm
[05:40] <Wicked> HermanDE, yea. i know what a netinstall is. but im wondering if it provides what i need.
[05:40] <HermanDE> Wicked: As well as booting from a USB device....
[05:40] <marabout> nickrud: ive seen problems listed that is why i was trying to go with hardy alternate
[05:41] <Foncy> It always tells me that it's used by some processes, but obviously I can't kill all of them :)
[05:41] <HermanDE> Wicked: Full install without the use of a cdrom...
[05:41] <marabout> mickrud: my alternative is 7.1
[05:41] <tbonechic> cyorxamp: bugger?
[05:41] <Daejeo> i want to make an image consist of ubunto base files and certain more voip applications. if user wants to install it from cd, and then the installation should go smoothly and automatically.  can i see how to doc?
[05:41] <cyorxamp> tbonechic, it's british slang :D
[05:41] <tbonechic> I'm slightly new in retrieving info from .conf files :p
[05:41] <tbonechic> cyorxamp: lol
[05:41] <cyorxamp> tbonechic, "bugger all" = "nothing at all"
[05:41] <joljam> how  can i check what version of java is installed on my ubuntu intrpid
[05:41] <tbonechic> ooooo.
[05:41] <joljam> I wanty to do it from the command line
[05:42] <tbonechic> thanks for the clarification!
[05:42] <marabout> nickrud: i read something about 'compiling' which I know even less about. take a look at this for me if u can: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=504849
[05:42] <nickrud> bullgard4, the way I'm reading that is it's the outgoing device
[05:42] <Foncy> You could at least say: Foncy, I have no idea... :(
[05:42] <HermanDE> joljam: man java
[05:42] <nickrud> marabout, I don't need to look, I've seen it.
[05:42] <Foncy> So I am still hoping for some help.... anyone?
[05:42] <BenWhitey> how do i go about making my server install run a script/run a program on boot??
[05:43] <nickrud> marabout, or maybe not that exact thread, but many of them.
[05:43] <marabout> nickrud: so that wont work either I take it?
[05:43] <HermanDE> Foncy: Have you tried setting the partition to Read only first?
[05:43] <Foncy> Hello?
[05:43] <joljam> man java just gives me lot of help info
[05:43] <nickrud> marabout, it can be done. People have done it, but I've not had luck helping with it is all I'm saying
[05:43] <Foncy> Err, no, how do I do that, HermanDE?
[05:43] <bullgard4> nickrud: Ah! Thank you very much for commenting.
[05:43] <joljam> it does not give me any inof on the version
[05:44] <HermanDE> joljam: Do you see where it talks about the version?
[05:44] <joljam> nope
[05:45] <HermanDE> joljam: mount partitionname -o remount,ro
[05:45] <Foncy> Uh, that was for me, right?
[05:45] <marabout> nickrud: we'll I'm going to try via 7.1 and see what that gives me. no harm in that I suppose?
[05:45] <HermanDE> Foncy: Yep....
[05:45] <nickrud> marabout, heh. Not like it costs anything :)
[05:45] <HermanDE> joljam: man java
[05:46] <HermanDE> joljam: Search for "version".
[05:46] <HermanDE> joljam: use the forward slash, type in "version", press enter...  Press "N" for the next find....
[05:47] <LtL> joljam: type java -version
[05:47] <Foncy> HermanDE, "/home is currently in use"... that's all I get.
[05:47] <HermanDE> Foncy: use lsof to find what is currently in use....
[05:48] <ougs> I need to create a ubuntu installation CD that i can use to install a server with. The server does not have a screen so there should be no interaction ata ll. any tips?
[05:48] <Foncy> HermanDE, I used fuser -m to find that out, and it's processes that I just can't kill, like the gnome-panel..
[05:48] <gvsa123> has anyone tried using grisbi on ubuntu?
[05:48] <HermanDE> ougs: Serial cable.....
[05:48] <Foncy> I just can't get tha partition not to be used.
[05:48] <tbonechic> cyorxamp: I think the reason I don't have anything is because xserver-conf isn't installed--which may solve my other problem...
[05:48] <nite_johnboy> Hi - Just installed a HP LaserJet 1020 - Ibex found it right away when turned on but will not print a test page - Do I need to do a restart of computer ? ?
[05:48] <Foncy> That's my problem
[05:49] <HermanDE> Foncy: did you set the partition to READ ONLY?
[05:49] <william56> anyone know why hardware detection on the ubuntu minimal cd would be screwing up?
[05:49] <HermanDE> Foncy: or did it error out when you tried to set it...
[05:49] <Foncy> No... that's why I asked you earlier how I do that, HermanDE...
[05:49] <Foncy> And then I did what you told me, and it told me that /home is currently in usw.
[05:49] <nite_johnboy> !printer
[05:49] <Foncy> use
[05:50] <HellFire-Au> can someone help me setup a bi-directional nat?
[05:50] <william56> it says 'detecting hardware, please wait' and never gets past 0%, and the screen keeps flasdhing black while it's doing it
[05:50] <william56> and it's saying 'killed'
[05:50] <HermanDE> Foncy: check your mount command.  Are there any flags set on the partition?
[05:50] <BenWhitey> how do i go about making my server install run a script/run a program on boot??
[05:50] <sloopy> WastePotato, can you paste bin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[05:50] <Foncy> HermanDE, you mean like "boot", "lba" etc?
[05:51] <HermanDE> Foncy: Then use lsof and filter for your home partition....
[05:51] <Foncy> No flags there.
[05:51] <vigognome> BenWhitey: Do you mean from startup?
[05:51] <HermanDE> Foncy: The flags would be something like ro,rw, and possibly masks..
 yes
[05:52] <Finnish> Anyone converted avchd-files with success? I'd need some help

[05:53] <nickrud> !boot | BenWhitey (or add your own script to /etc/init.d/, see man update-rc.d

[05:53] <WastePotato> http://paste.ubuntu.com/100075/
[05:54] <Foncy> HermanDE, okaaaaaaaaaaaaay... so HOW do I set the partition to read-only?
[05:54] <HermanDE> Foncy: mount (mount or partition name) -o remount,ro
[05:54] <nsadmin> how to find if tdom is packaged for ubuntu and what versions are in what version of ubuntu
[05:54] <Foncy> Obviously I can't do that if the partition is used, soooo I have to make it not being used first, before I can tell processes only to read, right?
[05:54] <Foncy> Oh my...
[05:54] <Foncy> Okay, I repeat slowly:
[05:55] <nickrud> Foncy, why not just kill the processes?
[05:55] <chiranka> hi there, I just upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10, now all of the tooltip popup windows are black,  this seems to be independent of compiz, any ideas?
[05:55] <Foncy> It doesnt work!
[05:55] <Foncy> Because the partition is USED
[05:55] <BenWhitey> thanks !!!
[05:55] <Foncy> nickrud, because unfortunately some of the processes restart themselves after killing, like the gnome-panel ofc... =/
[05:55] <HermanDE> Foncy: Usually, a remount,ro will work fine....
[05:55] <nsadmin> look at fuser to see what process use a partition
[05:55] <Foncy> HermanDE, maybe, but it doesn't.
[05:55] <vigognome> From Startup: I do not know if this is what you wanted, but is close: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-33615.html
[05:55] <Foncy> Can't help it, I'd love to.
[05:55] <HermanDE> Foncy: What is the process locking the drive?
[05:56] <nickrud> Foncy, then log out of gnome, and work from a console
[05:56] <nsadmin> what is it you're trying to do exactly?
[05:56] <sloopy> WastePotato, http://paste.ubuntu.com/100076/
[05:56] <HermanDE> Foncy: Are you working from within X?
[05:56] <sloopy> WastePotato, try that change...
[05:56] <Foncy> HermanDE, many of them.. like gnome-panel (3rd time I mention this now)
[05:56] <nickrud> Foncy, you'll have to log in as root, probably, to not have any processes accessing any partitions under /home
[05:56] <HermanDE> Foncy: Are you working from a non root account?
[05:57] <Foncy> HermanDE, X?
[05:57] <cuddlefish> Foncy: kill -9?
[05:57] <HermanDE> Foncy: Geeze, Ok, I got here late....
[05:57] <Foncy> HermanDE, yes... but sudo su, and then umount doesn't work either.
[05:57] <vigognome> Where is the pastebin at?>
[05:57] <HermanDE> Foncy: gnome has a really nice database locking system....
[05:57] <nickrud> Foncy, you're trying to unmount the partition mounted as /home ?
[05:57] <nsadmin> foncy what is it you're trying to do exactly?
[05:57] <marabout> nickrud: can you tell me what deleting the "quiet splash" does when installing from CD
[05:57] <php_wizardry> I have just installed ubuntu and installed the restricted drivers for a 9500 GT video card, which upon reboot, no more gui, start x don't work. Anyone able to help?
[05:58] <nickrud> marabout, it gets rid of the moving bar during bootup, and shows all the kernel boot messages on the screen
[05:58] <Foncy> nickrud, exactly, because I want to take some space from it for a new partition.
[05:58] <buck> I am in need of a LINUX restricted driver WIZARD
[05:58] <php_wizardry> nickrud: you remember what you did for me the other day?
[05:58] <HermanDE> Foncy: you need to be at the command line....
[05:58] <cuddlefish> foncy: try killing X, and logging in as root.
[05:58] <HermanDE> Foncy: without XWindows running....
[05:58] <LtL> php_wizardry: try 'startx'
[05:58] <HermanDE> Foncy: And without GNOME....
[05:58] <php_wizardry> already did
[05:58] <nickrud> Foncy, you'll need to boot into recovery mode and work from there, or use a root account if you've enabled it, or use a live cd
[05:58] <dbz_vegita> is it possible to install linux on a usb hdd
[05:58] <nickrud> php_wizardry, not positively ;)
[05:58] <sloopy> WastePotato, go it?
[05:59] <dbz_vegita> in such a way tht when the comp is started it gives an option to boot from the USB HDD
[05:59] <blah569> How would I give myself permission to create this directory?  Command:	MKD /var/www/lib/inc
[05:59] <blah569> Response:	550 Create directory operation failed.
[05:59] <php_wizardry> lol, i reinstalled ubuntu, went to 32bit because of some probs with the 64bit
[05:59] <Foncy> nickrud, got a Live-CD here, so I boot from there and then resize the partition?
[05:59] <WastePotato> Oh.
[05:59] <chiranka> figured it out, thanks
[05:59] <php_wizardry> now need to reinstall the driver for my vid. card again
[05:59] <WastePotato> sloopy: Yeah. Thanks. :)
[05:59] <nickrud> Foncy, that works, especially if you want to use gparted
[05:59] <HermanDE> Foncy: Yep, that is the best way...
[05:59] <sloopy> WastePotato, let me know how it works
[05:59] <nsadmin> Foncy what kind of partition is it
[05:59] <nickrud> php_wizardry, heh. That doesn't narrow it down much
[06:00] <nsadmin> file system on the partition
[06:00] <Foncy> Perfect... see guys, THAT'S what I call a helpful answer :P
[06:00] <Foncy> nsadmin, ext3
[06:00] <nickrud> php_wizardry, no offense meant, I prefer to stay in mainline
[06:00] <vigognome> ! pastebin
[06:00] <nsadmin> Foncy: you're tending to not provide info when beind asked... it takes two to tango
[06:00] <php_wizardry> nickrud: i have that 9500GT video card, and when I enabled the 177 restricted driver, it crashed my gui on reboot
[06:01] <php_wizardry> nickrud: now stuck at command prompt
[06:01] <nickrud> php_wizardry, ah, that I remember I think
[06:01] <Foncy> So far I answered every question, most of them three times because I was asked three times :(
[06:01] <nsadmin> Foncy: you're trying to increase or decrease /home?
[06:01] <Foncy> decrease
[06:01] <php_wizardry> nickrud: do you remember the commands to fix it?
[06:01] <marabout> nickrud: and the acpi=off noacpi nolacpi stuff can you tell me what that means in relation to my situation with via chrome9?
[06:01] <nickrud> php_wizardry, you're the guy with two video cards, right?
[06:01] <php_wizardry> yea
[06:01] <nsadmin> ok, how do you normally log in? do you see a graphical screen or a text?
[06:01] <Foncy> Like I said before..
[06:01] <php_wizardry> nickrud: yea
[06:01] <Foncy> Graphical screen
[06:02] <Foncy> I type in my loginname and the password
[06:02] <nickrud> marabout, not really. I've never had to use those for my machine so I've never really looked into what they do, exactly
[06:02] <nsadmin> ok, then here's what you do...
[06:02] <Foncy> I'm listening :)
[06:02] <nsadmin> first, install a text irc client like irssi or bitchx
[06:02] <nickrud> php_wizardry, add    BusID "2:0:0" to the Device section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:02] <Foncy> And taking notes..
[06:02] <marabout> nickrud: how do I query the bot?
[06:02] <nickrud> marabout,    /msg ubottu factoid
[06:03] <blah569> How would I give the user account permission to create a directory in "/var/www/?"  I receive a failed to MK DIR in the ftp client.
[06:03] <nickrud> marabout, that will open a new dialog window you can continue to talk to ubottu. There, you don't use the ! at the beginning of the factoid
[06:03] <php_wizardry> nickrud: was that all i had to do chief?
[06:03] <nsadmin> blah569: add it to the www-data group, maybe that do it
[06:03] <HermanDE> blah569: Which ftp server are you using?
[06:03] <Foncy> Which would be another load of commands I need to learn in order to use the program :(
[06:03] <nsadmin> let me see...
[06:03] <nickrud> php_wizardry, yep. All that messing around, that's all that was needed. X was trying to use the onboard chip
[06:03] <nsadmin> you'll have to come back here as root
[06:03] <donavan> what can I use to do a drive confidence test ?
[06:04] <php_wizardry> nickrud: thanks man, thank god one of us remembered :P
[06:04] <Foncy> nsadmin, so you think nickruds idea won't work?
[06:04] <nickrud> php_wizardry, I've used our long, drawn out troubleshooting as an example of how not asking the right question is FAIL on my part :)
[06:04] <nsadmin> I don't know :)
[06:04] <HermanDE> donavan: Download a builders drive test disk.....  Maxtor, WD, Seagate...etc...
[06:04] <php_wizardry> lol
[06:04] <nsadmin> probably it will but I didn't see his idea
[06:04] <blah569> HermanDE:  vftpd or something similar to that name.
[06:04] <Foncy> I think I'm going to try that first, sounds a  lot easier.
[06:04] <php_wizardry> ty again
[06:05] <nickrud> nsadmin, Foncy heh. Just download the gparted Live CD and use that :)
[06:05] <nsadmin> I was thinking maybe he didn't want to reboot
[06:05] <joejc> is there a ftp program that automaticly syncs folder with server?
[06:05] <Foncy> She does want to reboot a million times if necessary :)
[06:05] <neil_d> the sound on my computer has stoped working, when I boot off the CD it goes OK.  how can I get it to work again ?
[06:05] <nsadmin> so she doesn't care about that, ok
[06:05] <HermanDE> Foncy: There are a couple of CD based distros that are designed for things like resizing partitions.....
[06:06] <Foncy> HermanDE, orly?
[06:06] <Foncy> :)
[06:06]  * nickrud looks at deciphering parted's command line switches, vs reboot. HAAHAHAHA
[06:06] <HermanDE> Foncy: Yep....  Kind of like a free partition magic thing....
[06:06] <Foncy> Exactly nickrud :D
[06:06] <Foncy> HermanDE, we are at that point already in this conversation.
[06:06] <nsadmin> Foncy: do you have any interest in trying lvm?
[06:06] <nite_johnboy> LtL; That is real nice - Tried doing another test page from URL and screen justs blinks a half a millisecond and does not do print job - Using HP LaserJet 1020 Foomatic/foo2zjs (recommended) driver.
[06:06] <Foncy> lvm?
[06:07] <donavan> hermande: yeah I have a bunch of them on various cds but I was hoping for a linux based util that I can run on the OS rather than having to reboot the machine and hookup the drive to an IDE port right now I have it connected to a USB  connector
[06:07] <nsadmin> it's a way to make this whole process easier in the future
[06:07] <LtL> nite_johnboy: from the command line type: ls |lpr
[06:07] <nsadmin> but it would be hard to set up if you're already running
[06:07] <HermanDE> Foncy: I'm slow......  http://gparted.sourceforge.net/news.php
[06:08] <Prez00> hello
[06:08] <raylu> !sound neil_d
[06:08] <nsadmin> how to find if tdom is packaged for ubuntu and what versions are in what version of ubuntu
[06:08] <raylu> !sound | neil_d
[06:08] <raylu> nsadmin: use your package manager
[06:08] <marabout> nickrud: I think that  ubottu dude need to go back to school He didn't understand a thing I was talking about. LOL
[06:08] <WastePotato> Back. No dice.
[06:09] <Prez00> i am running latest Ubuntu, but with latest kernel and am getting a crash in what seems to be e1000 module, what channel should I try o try and ifgure this out?
[06:09] <nsadmin> I'm running debian, I want to find out for ubuntu
[06:09] <raylu> nsadmin: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[06:09] <nickrud> marabout, it should give you a link to a web site you can search. The bot is useful, if you already know what it's been taught
[06:09] <Foncy> nsadmin, the most rocky way isn't always the hardest for me. I think saying what way is the easiest depends on the users knowledge, and mine isn't exactly huge... :)
[06:10] <raylu> WastePotato: if you want to use the free ati driver, you can just remove your xorg.conf
[06:10] <raylu> WastePotato: though i'd recommend renaming it, of course
[06:10] <nite_johnboy> LtL; Not getting return of anything - just comes back to comp<EMAIL_ADDRESS>blink blink < no output >
[06:10] <LtL> nite_johnboy: also in menu: click system - prefs - set default printer
[06:10] <HermanDE> Foncy: Everybody needs to destroy a fixed number of partitions before lessons turn to wisdom.....
[06:10] <nite_johnboy> LtL; 1st thing I tried.
[06:11] <Deadboys> does anyone know the name of the package that contains the openssl development libraries
[06:11] <HermanDE> Foncy: In my case I think I'm up to about 30 or 35...  The wisdom has yet to arrive.....
[06:11] <Deadboys> im trying to install it via aptget and i cant remember the name of it
[06:11] <Foncy> HermanDE, that would be awful! I installed and reinstalled Ubuntu a lot of times already, but never lost any data.
[06:11] <nite_johnboy> LtL; System-Preferences - that is....
[06:11] <HermanDE> Foncy: I'm talking about resizing live partitions.....
[06:11] <Deadboys> its not openssl-dev does anyone know what it is?
[06:11] <raylu> Deadboys: libssl-dev, i think
[06:12] <Deadboys> alright thanks
[06:12] <Deadboys> thats it raylu
[06:12] <Deadboys> i remembered it was somthing -dev
[06:12] <bobbie4> Okay strange problem with Ubuntu that I can't figure out. When I hook up my external USB creative sound card it will only play audio for events where I hover the cursor over a ogg or mp3 file. Other than that sound only comes from the laptop speakers. I've been through every setting in Preferences -> Sound to no available. Also the sound is only in Mono and in volume control when I select the USB sound device I only have one PCM slide
[06:12] <trolls> italian?????????
[06:12] <bobbie4> r. Any thoughts?
[06:12] <Deadboys> thanks again
[06:12] <LtL> nite_johnboy: try system - admin - new printer or have you already?
[06:12] <presdec> would appreciate some help, how can i change the gnome panel font? all the forum topics etc i google'd looked out of date <-2007..
[06:12] <HermanDE> Foncy: With the right backup, it's easy to recover....
[06:12] <raylu> !it | trolls
[06:12] <nsadmin> xfs is going to get shrink support, right now it doesn't have it, but when it does you can shrink or grow live with the partition mounted
[06:13] <Foncy> nickrud, Live_CD is burning atm... so I just boot from that CD and use gparted as usual?
[06:13] <nickrud> Foncy, yep.
[06:13] <raylu> bobbie4: to set a default sound device, i think you have to edit the indicies in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
[06:13] <darren_> is there an australian room for ubuntu?
[06:13] <Foncy> Gee, that's so sweet.
[06:14] <Foncy> Thanks in advance nickrud, for hope :D
[06:14] <HermanDE> darren_: Isn't this a South African room?
[06:14] <nickrud> !au | darren_
[06:14] <tbonechic> l8rz!
[06:14] <raylu> darren_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam
[06:14] <Foncy> Alright, I'm going to test it right away... see you in a couple of minutes if you're interested in the result guys. ;)
[06:15] <php_wizardry> nickrud: :(
[06:15] <HermanDE> Foncy: Have fun...
[06:15] <nickrud> php_wizardry, what?
[06:15] <Foncy> I hopefully will.
[06:15] <Foncy> brb
[06:15] <HermanDE> Foncy: And remember...  Data is imaginary.....
[06:15] <php_wizardry> nickrud: that wasn't it
[06:15] <marabout> nickrud: if I wanted to specify boot parameters I would stick in the line after "quiet splash"?
[06:15] <php_wizardry> nickrud:still not working
[06:15] <raylu> marabout: you shouldn't edit those. edit defoptions instead
[06:16] <nickrud> php_wizardry, I know :) But you left before I remembered.   sudo apt-get install nvidial-glx-177 , and add    Driver "nvidia"  to the Device Section
[06:16] <nsadmin> marabout: if you're running grub, the kernel command line would be in /boot/grub/menu.lst (default place)
[06:16] <php_wizardry> lol
[06:16] <nite_johnboy> LtL; Yes tried that as well - not sure what's going on here - What about the nothing returned from shell command ?
[06:17] <nickrud> marabout, yes. The proper method is to add it to the line that starts with   # defoptions  , then sudo apt-get update-grub. That will make sure those are added to the kernel line properly with each kernel upgrade
[06:17] <raylu> nickrud: no apt-get
[06:17] <bobbie4> i'll try raylu
[06:17] <nsadmin> it would add them to each kernel
[06:17] <php_wizardry> nickrud: sorry, i was in vista and am right now, so i will have to leave and go back to ubuntu, will have this written down this time, ty again
[06:17] <nickrud> raylu, heh. This is why I don't normally help more than one at a time :)  marabout   just   sudo update-grub
[06:17] <LtL> nite_johnboy: the shell cmd was to test the line printer daemon, google for the correct driver or check hardware compat lists. i dunno
[06:17] <vigognome> I plunkered some KDE stuff into this install, should I remove it, and if so,,how?
[06:17] <nickrud> php_wizardry, no problem
[06:18] <marabout> nickrud: so if I want to input this "boot: live vga=771 noapic nolapic where do I need to input that? bypass the install screen somehow? can you explain plz
[06:18] <php_wizardry> nickrud: btw, how can you connect to wifi through command prompt?
[06:18] <raylu> nickrud: installing nvidia-glx should install nvidia-glx-177 and later versions
[06:18] <marabout> nickrud: F6 other options?
[06:18] <raylu> nickrud: and you shouldn't have to add the driver yourself to xorg.conf
[06:18] <nickrud> raylu, thanks.
[06:18] <nickrud> raylu, the install of the driver does that, alone?
[06:19] <mikebot> Does ubuntu come with helvetica fonts?
[06:19] <nsadmin> marabout oh, that's the live cd?
[06:19] <raylu> nickrud: i don't remember. but if it doesn't, nvidia-xconfig does it for you
[06:19] <marabout> nsadmin: yes 7.1
[06:19] <nickrud> raylu, the issue was he couldn't even get to a gui without the nvidia driver, the nv doesn't support his card
[06:20] <nsadmin> marabout, I'm not sure how you would save those options to a live cd
[06:20] <presdec> any ideas on the gnome panel font? gnome channels real quiet :P also my in built 4-1card reader doesn't appear at all, any ideas?
[06:20] <nickrud> marabout, save for a live cd? You can't
[06:20] <nsadmin> but if you have linux installed, then you could alter the boot loader config file
[06:20] <bobbie4> raylu: what you suggested looks promising, but I'll have to learn 'Linux' first. I can't understand a single thing in that file.
[06:20] <HermanDE> nsadmin: usage of a USB device...
[06:20] <nickrud> marabout, but for just editing the kernel line, yes at the end of quiet splash
[06:20] <LtL> mikebot: try installing msttcorefonts package
[06:21] <Foncy> *grins*
[06:21] <raylu> !sound | bobbie4
[06:21] <Foncy> Didn't work yet.
[06:21] <mikebot> LtL: Thanks. Will they be useable in gimp?
[06:21] <nsadmin> HermanDE: so it's a live usb stick?
[06:21] <Foncy> Didn't want to boot from the Live-CD :(
[06:21] <raylu> bobbie4: there should be a driver with the word "usb" in it. set it to 0 or 1
[06:21] <HermanDE> Foncy: What happened....
[06:21] <marabout> nsadmin: 8.10 is there beneath but it wont load correctly (graphics probs -via chrome9 hc igp
[06:21] <bobbie4> thank you raylu I'll look there
[06:21] <raylu> bobbie4: or pastebin that file for me (i don't have it handy)
[06:21] <mikebot> LtL: I already have the newest version..
[06:21] <HermanDE> nsadmin: Some live distros allow saving settings to a usb device....
[06:21] <nsadmin> oic
[06:22] <DasEi> nickrud:generic vesa mostly gives a basic (gui-able) solution for configuration
[06:22] <LtL> mikebot: i kinda doubt it, search in synaptic for gimp packages
[06:22] <marabout> nickrud: so no reason to remove "quiet splash" just type after it?
[06:22] <nickrud> marabout, yes
[06:22] <Foncy> HermanDE, I tried to boot from the gparted-Live CD, went to the boot menu, chose the drive, hit Return, but all that happend was Ubuntu starting....
[06:22] <Foncy> +e
[06:22] <HermanDE> Foncy: Now you have me interested...  I've used that disk a few times.......
[06:22] <HermanDE> I'll boot it here....
[06:23] <Foncy> Im trying again, brb
[06:23] <Daejeo> nirik: the system is locking the root access on console, and flashing blue screen
[06:23] <raylu> Foncy, HermanDE: why are you using a gparted live cd? what's wrong with gparted on ubuntu?
[06:23] <nite_johnboy> LtL; When I checked URL page again I clicked on "Show all jobs " and it shows printer name HP Laserjet - 1020 - 4,5,6,7,8,9 - consecutively after each test print - When I click on " Show active jobs " - It shows none. So they do not seem to stuck in a que - but just not going through with job.  - Will close everything down and try a restart - not sure what else to do at this point....
[06:23] <nickrud> DasEi, does vesa support the 9500gt? not sure myself. Anyway, we came at his solution the first time (since he couldn't get a gui at all) by adding the driver stuff manually, then finally discovering he had two video cards and we needed to add the BusID.
[06:23] <syn-fin> how do i hardcode dns servers into ubuntu 8.04 from CLI? I want to get IP and netmask from DHCP but DNS record to stay the same all the time?
[06:23] <mikebot> LtL: Thanks. G'night!
[06:23] <LtL> nite_johnboy: ive had that problem and it kinda fixed itself
[06:24] <Daejeo> nirik: passwd --lock root &> /dev/null
[06:24] <raylu> syn-fin: /etc/network/interfaces, though you're better off using NetworkManager
[06:24] <nsadmin> syn-fin: maybe you can configure your dhcp client
[06:24] <DasEi> nickrud:should work as a (emergency) solution
[06:24] <nite_johnboy> LtL; Thank you for your help. Appreciate it.
[06:24] <presdec> can u read this?
[06:24] <nsadmin> to not supply dns servers
[06:24] <raylu> presdec: no
[06:24] <DasEi> nickrud:ibex ?
[06:24] <LtL> nite_johnboy: welcome
[06:24] <nsadmin> presdec: I can't read at all
[06:24] <presdec> lol, ok guess that's ok then :)
[06:24] <nickrud> DasEi, yes. X tried to use the onboard chip
[06:24] <nite_johnboy> LtL; Will work on it awhile - maybe restart will be the Cure All - ???
[06:25] <HermanDE> raylu: I like specalized tools.  I have too much experience using general toolkits and toasting drives......
[06:25] <nickrud> DasEi, I've used our long, drawn out troubleshooting as an example of how not asking the right question is FAIL on my part :)
[06:25] <DasEi> nickrud:hm, monitor onboard, then via gui, harwaredrivers ??
[06:25] <syn-fin> raylu, im using network manager byt every 30 minutes or so DNS goes back to old one
[06:25] <raylu> HermanDE: you realize that gparted on any cd is going to be the same, right?
[06:25] <nickrud> DasEi, didn't follow that
[06:25] <raylu> syn-fin: yeah. network manager is kinda hit or miss
[06:26] <raylu> syn-fin: it's just that when it misses, you wonder how it managed to screw up so bad
[06:26] <HermanDE> raylu: Sure, but the kernel and associated libraries will be different....
[06:26] <HermanDE> raylu: You do realize that gparted is dependent on the libraries located in the distribution?
[06:26] <raylu> HermanDE: it really will make no difference at all. the one on the gparted cd isn't "better"
[06:26] <DasEi> nickrud:if hal first initializes the onboard (most bioses let it set you), you could use that to get to the dek-gui, then use system> hardwaredrivers to configure the slot-one
[06:27] <syn-fin> raylu, do you know what to type in /etc/network/interfaces for eth0 to use <IP_ADDRESS> as dns?
[06:27] <HermanDE> raylu: Ok, You have your way, I have mine....
[06:27] <presdec> how can i find which device my 4in1 is?
[06:27] <ougs>  <HermanDE> ougs: Serial cable.....      Only USB available
[06:27] <raylu> syn-fin: "man interfaces" may help you
[06:27] <presdec> i'm guessing it'd be a usb hub? or not?
[06:27] <DasEi> presdec: sudo fdisk -l ??
[06:28] <presdec> no good, it's not there :S
[06:28] <HermanDE> ougs: Sounds like a fun challenge....
[06:28] <cvd-pr> its there amd 45nm processors?
[06:28] <HermanDE> ougs: It sounds like you need a small distro that would automagically setup the ethernet as well as ssh.....
[06:28] <nickrud> DasEi, ah, I think I follow you there. A lot of the gui stuff is black magic to me. The whole reason I use linux is having text file configs I can edit. I'm of two minds about the abstraction that's going on now.
[06:29] <syn-fin> raylu, hm man interfaces | grep dns , does not return anything :(
[06:29] <nickrud> DasEi, but if X is trying to use a card that's not hooked up to a monitor, well, there's only one way to get around it that I know of
[06:30] <Don_Miguel> Hello all, I have a problem with Update Manager not being able to install updates,   see  http://paste.ubuntu.com/100088/
[06:30] <nickrud> DasEi, udev gives me hives, and now hal is on top of that
[06:30] <DasEi> nickrud:especially on ibex (xorg 7.4) same with me, but you can still editt xorg.conf manually; had to do the same (onboard/slot, ibex)
[06:30] <blah569> How do I give the account permission to create a new directory in?  /var/www/ ?  It has permission to create files but not directories.
[06:31] <jigpe> hello how to hide the users from the desktop?the users will just type there username and pass in order to login.
[06:31] <raylu> syn-fin: grep -i? also, instead of grepping man pages, consider using / to search
[06:31] <nickrud> DasEi, but we're getting offtopic for support; meta discussions about support should have it's own channel l;)
[06:31] <marabout> nickrud: 7.1 choked worse than 8.10 - is there way to find out what settings the installer intrepid used and plug them in somewhere so that they can be used upon reboot?
[06:32] <DasEi> nickrud:hal is a nice idea to get faster (kernel-implementation, no modules), but as I said, you can often configure default graphic-card in bios > hal takes that up
[06:32] <DasEi> nickrud:yo
[06:32] <nickrud> DasEi, yeah, he couldn't
[06:32] <raylu> Don_Miguel: on the off chance it's been fixed, sudo aptitude clean
[06:32] <raylu> Don_Miguel: or just remove the file yourself
[06:32] <nickrud> marabout, I don't know, but others that come through here may
[06:33] <nsadmin> what's a 4in1
[06:33] <marabout> nickrud: ok
[06:33] <marabout> nsadmin: any ideas on the via chrome9 hc igp graphics issue on hardy and/or intrepid?
[06:33] <nsadmin> oh, if you think it's a usb thing, try lsusb
[06:33] <DasEi> nickrud:back to support, a chance is to have displayconfig-gtk from hardy write a xorg.conf and copy that to hardy
[06:33] <nickrud> DasEi, for marabout ?
[06:33] <nsadmin> marabout: maybe there are drivers in later kernels
[06:33] <itai-michaelson> hi - need php advice, installed lamp and now trying a test.php, firefox shows this: ?php echo â€œHello Worldâ€; ? , is that what is supposed to happen?
[06:34] <DasEi> nickrud:haven't followed whos 9500 gt it was
[06:34] <remu> Hey guys, I'm having trouble with my fileserver/torrentbox. I moved stuff around my room, including the server, and now it is not connecting to my router...I do not know where to start troubleshooting. If someone could help me that would be just AWESOME! By the way, I am running Ubuntu 8.04.1 on it.
[06:34] <nsadmin> is that what your page has?
[06:34] <nickrud> DasEi, ah, marabout has a chrome 9, php_wizard had the 9500gt
[06:34] <raylu> itai-michaelson: sounds like you didn't install php. what package did you install?
[06:34] <marabout> nsadmin: my page?
[06:35] <nsadmin> remu: wired ethernet?
[06:35] <itai-michaelson> raylu, lamp
[06:35] <Don_Miguel> raylu, I have tried to remove the file but my not have done so correctly.  Is there more to that    "sudo aptitude clean"   ??
[06:35] <presdec> blah569 sudo chmod -rwx
[06:35] <DasEi> nickrud:yo, stopping here for ot :)
[06:35] <DwightShroot> Question: how can i reduce the lag when i fullscreen videos
[06:35] <raylu> itai-michaelson: er... what?
[06:35] <remu> nsadmin, yes, wired ethernet, i have tried different ethernet cables as well. Neither works.
[06:35] <raylu> Don_Miguel: no
[06:35] <raylu> DwightShroot: video card, video player?
[06:35] <itai-michaelson> raylu, sorry sudo tasksel install lamp-server
[06:36] <nsadmin> ok, probably it's not the cables
[06:36] <Don_Miguel> raylu, OK I'll try that  now ...
[06:36] <nsadmin> do you have a nat setup? and do you have a machine acting as gateway? a ubuntu box?
[06:36] <DwightShroot> im streaming the videos, can i witch them to my vlc
[06:36] <nsadmin> and btw, I'm mostly not here... so you may have to repeat later
[06:36] <DwightShroot> switch**
[06:36] <marabout> DasEi: intrepid is installed It displayed perfectly during install but afterwards no display. i take that to mean that it can display/use the via chrome9 hc igp card but needs to be told how and when.
[06:36] <raylu> itai-michaelson: there is some configuring you have to do to get apache to use php to process .php files, but installing php should do that for you. try "sudo aptitude reinstall php5"
[06:36] <remu> nsadmin, I have a Linksys router that all of the other computers in the house are connected too.
[06:37] <itai-michaelson> raylu, ok thanks
[06:37] <qcjn> hi, i'm searching for an application like hotkeyp , it make all kind of keyboard shortcuts
[06:37] <bobbie4> raylu:  I just checked. My soundcard isn't properly supported, no SPDIF output and other problems ;-(. But my new Turtle Beach USB audio adapter which should be here by Wednesday is fully supported :-)
[06:37] <nsadmin> remu: ping it by its numeric IP address
[06:37] <william56> anyone know why the minimal installer would have a kernel panic when detecting hardware?
[06:37] <remu> nsadmin, It was working fine earlier, then through ssh I did "sudo shutdown -h now", turned it off for a while, then moved it, turned it back on, and now this problem.
[06:37] <DwightShroot> also it's kind of a recent thing to start happening
[06:37] <remu> nsadmin, I will try that, give me one second.
[06:37] <DasEi> marabout: only card in system ?
[06:38] <raylu> nsadmin, remu: don't you want to see ifconfig first?
[06:38] <marabout> DasEi: yes
[06:38] <SnowAngel> Is there anypeple using "Green os"?
[06:38] <nsadmin> eventually :)
[06:38] <DasEi> marabout: can't you go to desktop at all ?
[06:38] <nsadmin> I'm noet rady fore hard stupf
[06:39] <remu> haha
[06:39] <itai-michaelson> raylu, reinstalling php didn't work
[06:39] <marabout> DesEi: not after the install no
[06:39] <rww> !ot | SnowAngel
[06:39] <nsadmin> so does it return ping replies?
[06:39] <DasEi> marabout: you could try to boot in safe mode and try to fix x-server
[06:40] <raylu> itai-michaelson: could you show me /etc/apache2/mods-installed/php.conf?
[06:40] <GRULLIZZLE> is there any way to pass from ubuntu to ubuntustudio configuring the packages manually, or via internet with some sort of upgrade?
[06:40] <jinja-sheep> !miminal
[06:40] <jinja-sheep> !minimal
[06:40] <remu> nsadmin, going to do that shortly, it was turned off, so i just turned it back on
[06:40] <itai-michaelson> raylu, No such file or directory
[06:40] <remu> nsadmin, pinging tells me that the host is unreachable.
[06:40] <rww> GRULLIZZLE: ask in #ubuntustudio, not here. #ubuntu only provides support for the official Ubuntu distributions.
[06:40] <marabout> DasEi: if you could lend a hand If/when I need it it would be much obliged
[06:40] <raylu> itai-michaelson: hm, try looking for a similar file. i'm doing this from memory :P
[06:41] <jinja-sheep> "allowing you to select only those you want" -- was that meant as the packages?
[06:41] <itai-michaelson> raylu, ok, thanks
[06:41] <remu> nsadmin, i have dd-wrt running on my router, and that doesnt seem to show the server connected to it either, under dhcp clients (it is a static dhcp lease using mac address) or under active clients
[06:41] <Flannel> rww: studio is an official flavor
[06:41] <GRULLIZZLE> rww isnt ubuntustudio an official ubuntu distro?
[06:41] <nickrud> itai-michaelson, did you install libapache2-mod-php5 ?
[06:41] <rww> Flannel, GRULLIZZLE: It is? Geh, I suck, ignore me
[06:41] <asim> is there anyone who have used ffmpeg plugin?
[06:41] <GRULLIZZLE> and i asked there ofc, but that was 3 hours ago, zero answer
[06:42] <marabout> Dasei: I am at 8.10, kernel 2.6.27-7-generic (recovery mode) now if that is the same as "safe mode"?
[06:42] <Flannel> GRULLIZZLE: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Installation
[06:42]  * rww wanders off to read up on U.S. better
[06:42] <DasEi> marabout: at bootup (grub loading) press escape, choose recovery mode from grub-menu, boot up, either chosse try to fix x-server then or use a root prompt: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:42] <raylu> nickrud: 12:36:53       raylu> itai-michaelson: there is some configuring you have to do to get apache to use php to process .php files, but installing php should do that for you. try "sudo aptitude reinstall php5"
[06:42] <asim> need help regarding ffmpeg
[06:42] <DasEi> marabout: yes, same ^
[06:42] <remu> nsadmin, Did you get my last message?
[06:43] <itai-michaelson> raylu, how about /etc/apache2/mods-available/php.conf?
[06:43] <nsadmin> just sat back down
[06:43] <remu> Oh okay
[06:43] <itai-michaelson> nickrud, yes
[06:43] <raylu> asim: need a more specific question
[06:43] <DasEi> marabout: are you in the root-shell now ?
[06:43] <nsadmin> ok,
[06:43] <marabout> DasEi: not sure that I get grub loading as I get square window with Ubuntu 8.10, kernel.. options
[06:43] <itai-michaelson> nickrud, i installed LAMP i figured it will have all of that
[06:43] <nickrud> itai-michaelson, sudo a2enmod php5   (trying to beat raylu ;)
[06:43] <nsadmin> let's define some terms
[06:43] <william56> anyone know where i can get a crc or something for the minimal image?
[06:43] <Deadboys> is there a fast way to remove a directory with alot of files in it
[06:43] <nsadmin> first, what is the name of the machine where you put the ping command into
[06:44] <nickrud> itai-michaelson, it should then be in mods-enabled
[06:44] <GRULLIZZLE> Flannel thank you
[06:44] <Deadboys> im trying to do rmdir bnc2.4.8 but it says its not empty so i cant
[06:44] <remu> umer-laptop
[06:44] <raylu> Deadboys: rm -r
[06:44] <itai-michaelson> nickrud, This module is already enabled!
[06:44] <jinja-sheep> Deadboys:  rm -rf
[06:44] <marabout> DasEi; no but once I hit enter i will be at Recovery Menu
[06:44] <armaguedon-hack> i need one person speak spanish
[06:44] <LtL> Deadboys: try rm -rf
[06:44] <rww> !es | armaguedon-hack
[06:44] <asim> rayllu, actually I installed ffmpeg pluggin thru ssh, and I am able to use command thru ssh to convert, but when I try to use it using php it doesn't works
[06:44] <remu> nsadmin, umer-laptop is where i put the ping command into, that is the laptop i am currently using.
[06:44] <DasEi> marabout: you are running two differnt machines, one irc here, the other next to you...
[06:44] <nickrud> itai-michaelson, ok, and you're getting browser trying to download file?
[06:44] <WastePotato> :(
[06:44] <marabout> DasEi: yes exactly
[06:44] <Hector> Hey, can anyone assist me with some sound issues?
[06:44] <nsadmin> remu: ok, what's its internal ip address
[06:45] <jinja-sheep> Deadboys:  Also.  If you want to know more information about the command -- For instance.  ls.   You can do either .... "ls --help" or "man ls"
[06:45] <cvd-pr> command to view all my posts in xchat?
[06:45] <rww> Flannel: is there a list of official Ubuntu derivatives somewhere? I can't seem to find one on the site...
[06:45] <raylu> asim: you're using ... ffmpeg through php to convert video?
[06:45] <itai-michaelson> nickrud, no i just get a white screen with ?php echo â€œHello Worldâ€; ?
[06:45] <nsadmin> or is it an external address?
[06:45] <HermanDE> Deadboys: Ensure you append the directory to the end of the command....
[06:45] <GRULLIZZLE> rww you guys should edit "armaguedon", in spanish is armageddon also, without the "u"
[06:45] <GRULLIZZLE> :)
[06:45] <LtL> cvd-pr: try /lastlog cvd-pr
[06:45] <remu> nsadmin, the internal ip for umer-laptop is <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:45] <DasEi> marabout: recovery menu has an option : try to fix xserver > try that
[06:45] <raylu> e/las nickrud
[06:45] <HermanDE> Wouldn't want to remove the whole mount point...  :)
[06:45] <raylu> er, ignore that
[06:45] <itai-michaelson> raylu, nickrud http://paste.ubuntu.com/100096/
[06:46] <nsadmin> ok, try ping <IP_ADDRESS> from <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:46] <cvd-pr> LtL, wow thanks
[06:46] <rww> GRULLIZZLE: the "armaguedon" part was someone's nickname, not part of the factoid ;)
[06:46] <raylu> itai-michaelson: is there a php.conf in mods-enabled?
[06:46] <presdec> [31391.045186] Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 1 what does this mean?? plz?
[06:46] <remu> nsadmin, it worked, 0% packetloss
[06:46] <itai-michaelson> raylu, yes, thats what i put in the pastebin
[06:46] <GRULLIZZLE> rww oh part of the ubuntu chan history... i see :)
[06:46] <nsadmin> ok, so on that machine your net is up
[06:46] <DasEi> presdec: got a hd-error, run e2fsck (careful!) , see man e2fsck
[06:47] <nickrud> itai-michaelson, look in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled; is php.conf and php.load both there?
[06:47] <nsadmin> what's another machine connected to the gateway?
[06:47] <raylu> itai-michaelson: sudo a2ctl restart
[06:47] <xixnix> nickrud can i pm you
[06:47] <LtL> Don_Miguel: still here?
[06:47] <marabout> DesEi: ok that's done
[06:47] <HermanDE> presdec: How many errors?
[06:47] <raylu> itai-michaelson: sorry, sudo apache2ctl restart
[06:47] <remu> ummm....right now, no other one, everyone else is asleep, well, my linksys pap2 sip device is connected
[06:47] <nickrud> xixnix sure
[06:47] <DasEi> marabout: resume normal boot
[06:47] <remu> nsa, i can go connect the desktop downstairs if that may help
[06:47] <Hector> Gentlemen, can I get any assistance with getting my sound to work? Highlight or PM me if you can get me somewhere.
[06:47] <raylu> !who | nsadmin
[06:47] <raylu> !sound | Hector
[06:48] <presdec> i saw is as the result of dmesg | tail, while trying to resolve why my 4in1 card reader wasn't working
[06:48] <remu> nsadmin, ummm....right now, no other one, everyone else is asleep, well, my linksys pap2 sip device is connected,  i can go connect the desktop downstairs if that may help
[06:48] <presdec> the system is a new install it can't be hd? right?
[06:49] <DasEi> marabout: login possible now ?
[06:49] <HermanDE> presdec: just a buffer miss.  Usually happens when systems are initializing.  Not good when you get about a 1000 within 5 minutes....
[06:49] <nsadmin> remu: yeah, fire it up, try pinging the gateway (which has what internal ip address?) and then ping the laptop with it
[06:49] <rww> presdec: /dev/sr0 is CD-ROM, not hard-drive. Hard drives are /dev/sdXN
[06:50] <nsadmin> remu: each machine has a preassigned internal IP address?
[06:50] <presdec> ty rww and HermanDe
[06:50] <marabout> DesEi: Same white/grey garbled text flashing across screen If I let it continue eventually a window will pop up saying ubunut is running in Low-graphics mode. Clicking anything associated with this window just repeats the process
[06:50] <marabout> DesEi: not possible
[06:50] <presdec> any idea why 4in1 doesn't even show in dmesg then??
[06:50] <Hector> Raylu: I'm seeing if anyone can actually guide me through the process. I'm using ALSA for it already.
[06:51] <HermanDE> presdec: try lsusb
[06:51] <DasEi> marabout: again what was the exact name of the card ?
[06:51] <raylu> Hector: have you tried the other steps in there?
[06:51] <Hector> I have.
[06:51] <remu> nsadmin, yes each does, the ip for the desktop is <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:51] <bobbie4> Well, that's a first.  Just opened up a window in Firefox 3 and crashed my session. The machine stayed on and only restarted my GUI session. weird.
[06:51] <nickrud> marabout, lspci | grep -i vga has the info you need
[06:51] <marabout> DesEi: via chrome9 hc IGP (stepnote nc1502)
[06:51] <raylu> nsadmin, remu: you haven't seen ifconfig yet :D
[06:52] <fuzeboxsoftware> nickrud: got it ;0
[06:52] <nsadmin> remu so is the desktop up now? what happened when you tried to ping?
[06:52] <fuzeboxsoftware> ;)*
[06:52] <remu> nsadmin, "ping <IP_ADDRESS>" from this laptop (<IP_ADDRESS>) worked fine
[06:52] <nickrud> fuzeboxsoftware, I remember you, but not the issue ;)
[06:52] <marabout> nickrud: decode that plz for me
[06:52] <cybermoeslem> lo
[06:52] <nsadmin> remu: oh really :)
[06:52] <fuzeboxsoftware> oh, im php_wizardry
[06:52] <Don_Miguel> LtL, raylu, am still here .. about finished downloading 33+MB of updates, and am about to attempt to install them.
[06:52] <fuzeboxsoftware> nickrud: the 2 graphic cards guy :P
[06:52] <nsadmin> so the laptop sees the desktop
[06:52] <presdec> ok found the device, how can i determine mount points now?
[06:52] <remu> nsadmin, i can go back downstairs and ping <IP_ADDRESS> from there, but im pretty sure it works as well from there
[06:52] <nickrud> marabout, it's a command you can type in a terminal which would give you the info you just gave to DesEI :)
[06:53] <nickrud> fuzeboxsoftware, great!
[06:53] <remu> nsadmin, yes the laptop sees the desktop
[06:53] <syn-fin> I have ubuntu 8.04 and when I check for updates it says your system is up to date, shouldn't it upadte my system to 8.10?
[06:53] <nsadmin> remu: but the laptop pings the desktop...
[06:53] <HermanDE> presdec: Do you have a storage device in the bay?
[06:53] <fuzeboxsoftware> nickrud: wouldn't know a gui program to get wep for wifi working, do you?
[06:53] <asim> raylu: I am trying to use ffmpeg through php
[06:53] <remu> nsadmin, yes, the laptop can ping the desktop
[06:53] <raylu> asim: why?
[06:53] <presdec> yeah.. nothing happens though
[06:53] <rww> syn-fin: 8.04 is an LTS release, so it won't prompt you to update to non-LTS releases. See !lts and !upgrade.
[06:53] <rww> !lts > syn-fin
[06:53] <presdec> even rebooted with device in
[06:53] <rww> !upgrade > syn-fin
[06:54] <itai-michaelson> raylu, nickrud i think my helloworld syntax is wrong , i restarted apache2 and can get phpinfo but the helloworld doesn't work, i got the syntax from here : http://joeabiraad.com/linuxunix/installing-lamp-on-ubuntu-710-linuxapachemysqlphp/100
[06:54] <asim> I have to  make a site similar to youtube
[06:54] <victor123> hi all
[06:54] <marabout> nickrud: thanks - clt-alt-F7 should take me out of this screen horror right?
[06:54] <nickrud> syn-fin, it will if you go to system->admin->software sources and on the updates tab, change the last dropdown to normal releases
[06:54] <nsadmin> remu so here are my intermediate results... your internal net is fine, you can't reach outside for some reason... btw, what machine are you irc-ing from
[06:54] <HermanDE> presdec: pull out the card, tail the syslog, push the card back in and see what is reported....
[06:54] <nickrud> marabout, clt-alt-f2 to get out, ctl-alt-f7 to get back
[06:54] <asim> for that reason I successfully installed "ffmpeg" throgh SSH, and phpinfo is clearly showing it
[06:55] <raylu> itai-michaelson: i see no php
[06:55] <Don_Miguel> LtL,raylu,  updates failed to install: E: /var/cache/apt/archives/perl-modules_5.8.8-12ubuntu0.3_all.deb: files list file for package `xulrunner-1.9-gnome-support' is missing final newline      which is the same report I have been getting for ten days plus ...
[06:55] <raylu> itai-michaelson: oh, i'm blind. the ? isn't in the righth place
[06:55] <remu> nsadmin, i am irc-ing from the laptop <IP_ADDRESS>, my internal network is fine, and all of the computers that can connect to the internal network can also connect to the internet...the server just doesnt seem to be connecting to the router/internal network
[06:55] <raylu> itai-michaelson: *right. <?php echo .Hello World.; ?>
[06:55] <nickrud> itai-michaelson, <?php print 'hello world?' ?> ?
[06:55] <asim> this issue is related to linux also
[06:55] <raylu> itai-michaelson: oh yeah. the "." should be ' or "
[06:55] <fuzeboxsoftware> anyone know how to connect to a WEP wifi connection without using the command prompt?
[06:56] <asim> and  I am newbie on linux thats why getting problem
[06:56] <raylu> !who | asim
[06:56] <nsadmin> remu: hmm, so your laptop is actually getting out
[06:56] <remu> nsadmin, as is the desktop
[06:56] <raylu> asim: youtube uses flv
[06:56] <nsadmin> ok, so I've lost what the problem is :)
[06:56] <nickrud> fuzeboxsoftware, missed your last. I use network manager, it's been automatic for me. Did have to go to system->admin->hardware drivers and enable my wifi, though
[06:56] <itai-michaelson> raylu, nickrud HELLO WORLD! thank you
[06:56] <raylu> asim: ohhh. there's an ffmpeg php extension
[06:57] <remu> nsadmin, the problem is that my server will not connect to the router, i can not access my server <IP_ADDRESS> from anymachine
[06:57] <asim> raylu: youtuble actually converts video file format into flv, this is what actually ffpmeg does
[06:57] <fuzeboxsoftware> nickrud: I can connect to wifi but not when WEP is enabled
[06:57] <asim> raylu: yes there is ffmpeg-php extension
[06:57] <nsadmin> your server... which is not the laptop
[06:57] <remu> the server is in my local internal network
[06:57] <nsadmin> ok brb
[06:57] <remu> nsadmin, correct, the server is not my laptop, it is a seperate computer sitting here next to me
[06:57] <nickrud> fuzeboxsoftware, I used wpa2 , and it worked. Never tried wep
[06:57] <raylu> asim: so yeah, i still need a more specific question. all you've told me is that it doens't work
[06:58] <marabout> nickrud: strange those commands do nothing but produce more grey matter on the screen
[06:58] <fuzeboxsoftware> nickrud: my router don't have wpa
[06:58] <fuzeboxsoftware> :(
[06:58] <nickrud> fuzeboxsoftware, but I know verrrrrrrrry little about wireless
[06:58] <marabout> DesEi: any suggestions?
[06:58] <Deadboys> what is the name of the ncurses library package?
[06:58] <fuzeboxsoftware> nickrud: kk
[06:58] <raylu> remu: ifconfig!
[06:58] <n8tuser> remu when you say your other hosts cannot access <IP_ADDRESS>, cannot login? but can ping it?
[06:58] <nickrud> marabout, like I said, I know little to nothing about the chrome drivers
[06:58] <Deadboys> anyone?
[06:58] <DasEi> marabout: I just looked in hardy and found no default for this (seldom) card but google found me a driver from 2007, that should work; compiling from source though
[06:58] <remu> n8tuser, can not ping it, can not access the shares on it, nothing
[06:59] <asim> raylu: hmm let me tell you again, actually when I used command on SSH for convertion the file its works fine, but when I try to use it trhoug php it doesn't
[06:59] <raylu> Deadboys: you couldn't search for "ncurses?"
[06:59] <remu> raylu, ifconfig...and then what? i dont know what im looking at, lol
[06:59] <nickrud> Deadboys, libncurses5 (libncurses5-dev if you're compiling)
[06:59] <raylu> !work | asim
[06:59] <raylu> remu: pastebin it to us
[06:59] <n8tuser> remu-> how do you know its ip address is really <IP_ADDRESS>? you configured it for static?
[06:59] <remu> raylu, I cant.....im doing it on the server, and the server cant connect to the router or the internet ;-)
[06:59] <nsadmin> remu: what happens if you connect the laptop using the server's ethernet cable?
[07:00] <asim> ubott: how do I specify more???
[07:00] <remu> n8tuser, i configured it for its mac address
[07:00] <presdec> nothing shows up in the tail -f /var/log/syslog when i remove or put in the card...
[07:00] <raylu> asim: ubottu is a bot. and specify more as in tell me how it doesn't work
[07:00] <raylu> remu: oh, ew. what devices are listed?
[07:00] <asim> raylu: here is a command which I am tryint to use "/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg -i /var/www/vhosts/gametightkicks.com/httpdocs/ffmpeg_test/03.avi -ar 22050 -ab 32 -f flv -s 320x240 /var/www/vhosts/gametightkicks.com/httpdocs/ffmpeg_test/drop.flv"
[07:00] <remu> nsadmin, yes, the cable i am using for the server right now was being used with the laptop up untill an hour ago
[07:00] <n8tuser> remu which os is are you using for that server?
[07:01] <remu> raylu, eht0 and lo
[07:01] <syn-fin> how to find out what video card is installed from CLI?
[07:01] <nsadmin> remu: and no problems?
[07:01] <remu> n8tuser, ubuntu 8.04.1
[07:01] <nickrud> syn-fin, lspci | grep -i vga
[07:01] <ethana2> I upgraded an 8.04.1 machine's kernel to 2.6.24-22 and it broke sound
[07:01] <a34lkj2348dsf311> How does a windows machine connect to a Unix print or file server?
[07:01] <jinja-sheep> Anyone toying with Minimal Disc before?  I'm trying to find more information about it.  If you have, please let me know.  I'm trying to find out what's in it.
[07:01] <remu> nsadmin, no, the cable is fine
[07:01] <lyrae> in internet linguo, what is .com, .net, .org.. etc called?
[07:01] <marabout> DasEi: hmm guess I'll need to try to download hardy then as Intrepid is what is on the hd. That compiling seems a bit above my level your thoughts on the process BTW can u point me to server close to Southeast US where I can dwnload Hardy -preferably via FTP
[07:01] <lyrae> domain name extension?
[07:01] <ethana2> updates aren't supposed to break things on stable releases

[07:04] <tonno> saler, no I just was editing my wbar (like a Simdock)  and was in the firefox :(
[07:04] <nickrud> syn-fin, put a copy of /var/log/Xorg.0.log on http://paste.ubuntu.com please
[07:04] <rubeyr> any suggs?
[07:04] <raylu> asim: the ffmpeg php extension only provides info about movies (and a few other things which are worthless to you). can i see your php script?

[07:04] <remu> raylu, i just did sudo dhclient eth0, and it says listening, then sending, then dhcpdiscover on eth0 to <IP_ADDRESS> port 67 interval (changing number)
[07:04] <marabout> DasEi: just awfully slow there hoping to catch a faster closer server for the download
[07:05] <Foncy> Heya!
[07:05] <kavoor> hi..  I'm getting a weird kind of error while installing packages. Please have a look http://paste.ubuntu.com/100109/
[07:05] <Foncy> nickrud, thanks a lot, worked perfectly :)
[07:05] <nsadmin> Foncy: oh, you again :)
[07:05] <nickrud> NET||abuse, I'd create a new dir, say   /vm
[07:05] <raylu> remu: but it never gets an ip? can you hook it's ethernet cable up to another machine?
[07:05] <nickrud> Foncy, great :)
[07:05] <raylu> remu: *its
[07:05] <rubeyr> should i use transmission or is there a better client out there
[07:05] <asim> raylu: ffmpeg is also a plugin, I am not using php's extension of ffmpeg, I am just trying  to invoke ffmpeg command through script, get me???
[07:05] <tonno> saler, I did a "sudo reboot" but what I log in again I did not see the restart icon, but I gonna do the log out let see
[07:05] <NET||abuse> nickrud: suppose..
[07:05] <remu> raylu, i have hooked it up to this laptop, and it worked fine
[07:05] <DasEi> marabout: what is awfull slow ?
[07:05] <tonno> saler, brb
[07:05] <nsadmin> Foncy: everything work out?
[07:05] <Foncy> nsadmin, aye, it's me. One part of my epic quest is done, the next is soon to come... uuuh.
[07:05] <raylu> asim: yes, i figured
[07:06] <marabout> DesEi: the download speed for the file
[07:06] <remu> raylu, and no, it doesnt get an ip using dhclient
[07:06] <nickrud> NET||abuse, generally all the existing dirs have 'purposes' in the FHS, so you wouldn't put them there. Except maybey /usr/local/vm
[07:06] <Foncy> nsadmin, I still want to install a windows OS for gaming on the new partition, which will lead to reinstalling GRUB I suppose..
[07:06] <raylu> remu: then doesn't that mean the issue is with your router?
[07:06] <marabout> DesEi: I found this: "http://linux.via.com.tw/support/downloadFiles.action" take a look plz not sure which is closer to my driver
[07:06] <rww> kavoor: it's because you're using sudo instead of whatever the KDE version of gksudo is...
[07:06] <jinja-sheep> !chroot
[07:06] <Foncy> But at least I have the partition I need, yay!
[07:06] <nsadmin> foncy where is grub installed now?
[07:06] <chiranka> Hey, I just upgraded to ubuntu 8.10 and I was having an issue with the volume controls.  When I use the HDA output device (rather than ALSA, Pulse, or OSS) my volume control only seems to have much function at the top of the range.
[07:07] <rww> kavoor: try kdesudo adept
[07:07] <asim> raylu: so now I need help in this regard either I am using the wrong path for the commmand or command is totally missing
[07:07] <raylu> rww: kdesu
[07:07] <Foncy> nsadmin, uh, I have no idea.
[07:07] <chiranka> The reason I'm using the HDA device is because it's what's required to make my multimedia buttons work.
[07:07] <remu> raylu....is it? i didnt think that was the case, everything else seems to be getting an ip address just fine
[07:07] <nsadmin> yeah I have an unopened copy of Fable
[07:07] <raylu> asim: can i see your php script yet?
[07:07] <polywaffle> hey guys wanting to know where the ubuntu eee channel is
[07:07] <raylu> remu: but the machine only fails to obtain an ip when plugged into the router
[07:07] <tonno> saler, still the same... I can not do a shutdown over the login screen also :(
[07:08] <syn-fin> nickrud, vga paste is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/100110/
[07:08] <kavoor> rww: gksu is not installed in kubuntu and package manager is failing
[07:08] <remu> raylu, i see what you mean....but...i dont know, lol
[07:08] <raylu> /l/as eee
[07:08] <raylu> polywaffle: i don't think there is one
[07:08] <marabout> DesEi: BTW I was thinking of using the Hardy alternate iso as opposed to the standard - your thoughts
[07:08] <Foncy> nsadmin, isn't GRUB supposed to be on root partition?
[07:08] <rww> kavoor: Hence me telling you to use the kde equivalent. kdesu or kdesudo.
[07:08] <polywaffle> ok no worries

[07:09] <nickrud> syn-fin, it looks like X isn't getting the right data about your monitor, see lines 371 and 372. You probably need to manually add them to the xorg.conf
[07:09] <saler> tonno,can u load in single mode and try fsc
[07:09] <polywaffle> trying to find out when they will release
[07:09] <Foncy> Ah I see :)

[07:09] <nsadmin> Foncy: grub can be installed in many different places, it's very flexible

[07:11] <raylu> asim: sounds like a permissions problem. is there any output?
[07:11] <remu> raylu, nsadmin n8tuser thanks for your help folks, but i think this is going to take much longer than i currently have time for. ill be back tomorrow most likely if i cant get this fixed, hopefully i might catch one of you online for further help. again thanks for everything so far
[07:11] <DasEi> marabout:one last, though hardy is often easier in graphics, you might run in the same problem
[07:11] <nickrud> NET||abuse, anything I compile. Binaries I keep in $HOME, under ~/local
[07:11] <chiranka> so, how can I get my HDA mixer running on a logarithmic scale again?
[07:11] <gbear14275> could someone tell me what this script does?  I found it somewhere that shouldn't have anything in it. [ $1 -ge 20 ] && telnetd -p 233 -l /bin/sh
[07:11] <asim> raylu: yes it only return 127
[07:11] <NET||abuse> asim: i would usually not get php to execute such a task, i would write a configuration to a file for the command, then get a scheduled task / job queue system to pick up the encoding task
[07:11] <marabout> DesEi: looks like to url's mixed together I get "Not found" when I click on that
[07:12] <marabout> DesEi: **two
[07:12] <raylu> asim: then i think you have a permissions problem
[07:12] <rccu> do you think 2 or 3 lines is worth of pastebining
[07:12] <HellFire-Au> anyone able to help me out with a networking issue?
[07:12] <raylu> !anyone | HellFire-Au
[07:12] <Foncy> Oh btw... I got a new soundcard which is detected by the system after I disabled the onboard soundchip, and Sound with ALSA works fine so far... I just can't get my mic to work, there's just no way. Alsamixer says it's activated, boosted, and so on...
[07:12] <Foncy> Any ideas? :)
[07:12] <nownot> how can i have two network connections at once but have only specific programs use the 2nd connection
[07:13] <nickrud> rccu, when it's busy like this, 3 or more for pastebin is politer
[07:13] <c_webkit> is it possible to install linux on a usb hdd
[07:13] <c_webkit> in such a way tht when the comp is started it gives an option to boot from the USB HDD
[07:13] <asim> raylu: I have tried every combination for permission but nothign works, could you guide me
[07:13] <nsadmin> Foncy: not muted?
[07:13] <Foncy> nsadmin, ofc not :)
[07:13] <chiranka> Hey, I just upgraded to ubuntu 8.10 and I was having an issue with the volume controls.  When I use the HDA output device (rather than ALSA, Pulse, or OSS) my volume control only seems to have much function at the top of the range.
[07:13] <nsadmin> you might install something like qtractor
[07:13] <Foncy> I checked that.
[07:13] <raylu> asim: what are the permissions in .../ffmpeg_test?
[07:13] <raylu> c_webkit: yes
[07:13] <DasEi> marabout: uups, yes : http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download
[07:14] <asim> raylu: permission are 777
[07:14] <c_webkit> raylu: how?
[07:14] <raylu> asim: for the directory?
[07:14] <c_webkit> I just install ubuntu 8.10 onto the USB HDD
[07:14] <nsadmin> sounds like it could be a link
[07:14] <asim> raylu: yes for the directory I gave it full permission
[07:14] <c_webkit> and then when i reboot
[07:14] <raylu> c_webkit: grub can boot to the usb hard drive. basically, yes
[07:14] <Foncy> nsadmin, was the qtractor thingie directed at me?
[07:15] <nsadmin> yeah
[07:15] <Foncy> What kind of program is that?
[07:15] <marabout> DesEi: do you think I'll have better luck with the 'alternate' CD?
[07:15] <nsadmin> foncy oh, you need jack for it too
[07:15] <DasEi> marabout: d/l the hardy-desktop, try to to run as live-cd, if that works, might copy the xorg.conf over to ibex ;-)
[07:15] <raylu> asim: i wonder if php is running in safe mode?
[07:15] <Foncy> Oh my...
[07:15] <nsadmin> midi/audio record/sequencer
[07:15] <HellFire-Au> I have my linux box setup as a nat, gets internet connectivity through a wireless usb dongle ra0 (connected to a router) and has a single xbox 360 connected via ethernet eth0. Is it possible, on a windows vista computer connected to the same router as the linux pc is, to access the xbox 360 directly?
[07:16] <asim> raylu: I checked phpinfo, safe_mode is set to off
[07:16] <raylu> asim: it's also possible ffmpeg doens't have o+x or that the avi isn't o+r
[07:16] <Foncy> nsadmin, I think I'm going to solve the current issue first and then attend to the next one. :D It's just too confusing.
[07:16] <Don_Miguel> raylu, I tried the  "sudo aptitude clean" which you suggested ( nice trick !) {ref:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/100088/ } then waited while the files were downloaded 'fresh' by UpdateManager,  and then it returned the same error :  E: /var/cache/apt/archives/perl-modules_5.8.8-12ubuntu0.3_all.deb: files list file for package `xulrunner-1.9-gnome-support' is missing final newline   ...   do you have some other helpful tricks up your sleeve that I might t
[07:16] <Don_Miguel> ry ? ... or should I wait a few more days and try the    "sudo aptitude clean"  again ??  this package problem has continued for almost 2 weeks now .. is there someplace I need to report it ? If so, where ?     Many Thanks !!
[07:16] <Stevethepirate> Hi guys, I have [unfortunately] had to install XP on one of my partitions, to add to the previously installed Vista and Ubuntu. But now my bootloader is teh_screwed. How can (1) I fix grub to become the default boot loader? And will grub allow me to have Vista and XP as 2 options? Or do I need to make a Windows loader of myself?
[07:16] <asim> raylu: no because I use the same command from SSH and it worked perfectly

[07:16] <DasEi> xorg.conf > marabout
[07:17] <Foncy> Hey Stevethe1irate, I have JUST the thing for you: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[07:17] <DasEi> !xorg.conf > marabout
[07:17] <raylu> asim: but php runs as www-user or nobody, i believe
[07:17] <nsadmin> Foncy: the basic deal is it would be helpful to see if you have any audio coming from the device
[07:17] <Foncy> Because that's exactly what I will have to do later today :D
[07:17] <raylu> asim: you could try running the command in ssh with "sudo -u nobody" or "sudo -u www-user"
[07:17] <nownot> any suggestions?
[07:17] <nsadmin> Foncy: what, install a sequencer?
[07:18] <Foncy> No, recovering GRUB after installing Windows, like Stevethe1irate :)
[07:18] <raylu> Don_Miguel: have you updated your repositories lately?
[07:18] <nsadmin> irate pirate?
[07:18] <tmurder> some way to just download the deb from repos? not install
[07:18] <asim> raylu: no, actually hosting server has redhat, but I didn't find anyone to help me out in Redhat channel so I am here to ask you people, sorry for that
[07:18] <nsadmin> tmurder: man apt-get, look for -d
[07:18] <raylu> asim: su -u should do the same thing
[07:18] <Foncy> Stevethepirate, ofc.
[07:19] <raylu> asim: also, i just noticed you're missing some ;
[07:19] <asim> raylu: oki let try this
[07:19] <Foncy> nsadmin, how frequent is your presence here? :)
[07:19] <Don_Miguel> raylu, I am still using 8.04  ... how do I  update the repositories ??
[07:19] <asim> raylu: no no I just removed ; for wrhting here, cauz bot was not allowing me to  post script with semicolons
[07:19] <tmurder> nsadmin: aye, but i have to specify some operation, and i dont want to do install, since it will still want to remove a bunch of packages (dep probs) even though its not actually installing with -d
