[19:58] <fiXXXerMet> levander: Just change the line in xorg.conf?
[19:58] <Aquahallic> hmm... k... thx
[19:58] <levander> sunseeker888: Does it work under Windows.
[19:58] <Cpudan80> sunseeker888: Are you sure the thing is working properly on its own? IE. Does it work in windows ?
[19:58] <RoboCop> i need ssl.h     which package might be having it?
[19:59] <TurtleBoots> !chroot
[19:59] <ubotu> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[19:59] <Cpudan80> sunseeker888: You might need to enable USB Keyboard support in your BIOS
[19:59] <CursedLord> How can i install radeon hd 2600 pro on ubuntu
[19:59] <levander> fiXXXerMet: I'd go into System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers Manager and turn it on in there.
[19:59] <meoblast001> MasterShrek: its asking what kind of printer it is and idk.... its a brother multi-functioning center.... what should i put
[19:59] <astro76> !ati | CursedLord
[19:59] <ubotu> CursedLord: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[19:59] <levander> fiXXXerMet: But, that one line in xorg.conf may be all it changes, I don't remember.
[19:59] <sunseeker888> Cpudan
[19:59] <Stoffer> how would I format my external usb hard drive as Fat32?
[19:59] <CursedLord> yes ati
[19:59] <sunseeker888> yes it work inb wwindows
[19:59] <Cpudan80> sunseeker888: What happens under ubuntu ?
[19:59] <sunseeker888> Levander thanks it works on windows
[19:59] <astro76> CursedLord: that was a command to tell ubotu to give you information, check out the link
[20:00] <brobostigon> Stoffer: use gparted
[20:00] <levander> sunseeker888: I vaguely remember that there are some issues with wireless keyboard/mouse in Ubuntu.  I don't think they just use the standard USB keyboard/mouse drivers even in Windows.  You'd have to google to verify that though, I'm not positive.
[20:00] <blizzow> What are the generic steps for compiling a third party driver in ubuntu?  I was under the assumption that one just downloads the linux-headers package and build-essential packages and compiles as needed, but apparently this is completely wrong.
[20:00] <Cpudan80> Does the live CD have gparted in it?
[20:00] <fiXXXerMet> Cpudan80: yes
[20:00] <Cpudan80> Does it work?
[20:00] <levander> fiXXXerMet: Have you got it running?
[20:00] <fiXXXerMet> Yup
[20:00] <gabriel> guys i need some help how do i find out my ip, gateway and subnet mask, ifconfig only shows my ip
[20:01] <Cpudan80> fiXXXerMet: ok - great - thanks
[20:01] <Stoffer> brobostigon, would I need to mount the volume first?
[20:01] <sunseeker888> levander: cheers, ubuntu forum is down, maintenance
[20:01] <blizzow> gabriel: man root
[20:01] <fiXXXerMet> levander: The restricted driver is already checked.  it shouldn't be?
[20:01] <blizzow> gabriel: sorry, I meant man route
[20:01] <brobostigon> Stoffer: i dont think it matters, not sure though
[20:01] <CursedLord> which link i havent seen any link
[20:02] <Stoffer> brobostigon, ok, because I currently can't mount it due to it's ntfs-3g file system, which is why I'm changing it to fat32
[20:02] <blizzow> route will give your gateway and netmasks for network interfaces.
[20:02] <Flannel> gabriel: Are you connected over wifi?  ifconfig should show you all.  try iwconfig
[20:02] <meoblast001> how do i connect to a network printer that is directly connected to our router.... what type of printer would it be? Windows Printer, AppSocket, IPP, LPD/LPR, or Other?
[20:02] <levander> fiXXXerMet: Run 'glxinfo | grep rendering' to see if you're using hardware acceleration.
[20:02] <ATG> When someone has a minute... whenever I'm drawing something in GIMP for more than a minute, my entire OS freezes. I can still use the mouse, but that's it. I think it's GL related, but I'm not sure.. anybody have any ideas?
[20:02] <mateusz> I have problem with sound control.. aumix -v +5 or aumix -v -5 does nothing! while with -w option it works..
[20:02] <ahorriblemess> forums are down for now =(
[20:02] <levander> fiXXXerMet: That it's checked may mean you're already using the nv driver.
[20:02] <Aquahallic> astro76: I got it... I had the adobe and gnash installed.. must have been somekind of conflict....:)   Thank You!
[20:02] <mateusz> any idea why global volume is missing on my ubuntu?
[20:02] <levander> ATG: What video card, ATI or nvidia?
[20:02] <mateusz> I have only PCM
[20:02] <fiXXXerMet> levander: direct rendering: Yes.  Curious because xorg.conf shows "driver" "nvidia" and not "nv"
[20:02] <mateusz> :(
[20:02] <gabriel> flannel no im connected through cable, i need those settings ... i don't exactly know how to find them
[20:02] <ATG> Levander: ATi, it's an old Radeon 9200 SE. Worked fine before
[20:02] <ahorriblemess> can someone tell me how to check my ports, or see if any have been opened?
[20:02] <ahorriblemess> i dont think my message sent
[20:03] <ahorriblemess> oh
[20:03] <levander> mateusz: It's missing where?
[20:03] <Flannel> gabriel: Are you not connected yet?
[20:03] <Cpudan80> ahorriblemess: netstat
[20:03] <meoblast001> hello?
[20:03] <ahorriblemess> thanks
[20:03] <usser> ahorriblemess: netstat -atp
[20:03] <fiXXXerMet> ahorriblemess:  You can run nmap against yourself, or use 'netstat -tap'
[20:03] <mateusz> levander: well when I try to use my phisical volume buttons on my lenovo t61
[20:03] <Flannel> gabriel: dhcp should take care of that
[20:03] <ahorriblemess> so is it tap or atp
[20:03] <mateusz> levander: they work without compiz
[20:03] <fiXXXerMet> ahorriblemess: doesn't matter
[20:03] <mateusz> levander: when I run compiz they dont
[20:03] <clearzen> ahorriblemess: sudo nmap -sS <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[20:03] <levander> ATG: Linux has never been that agreeable with ATI cards.  It probably does have to do with GL like you say.  You could upgrade cards to an nvidia one, or keep playing with GL config to see if you can fix it.
[20:03] <ahorriblemess> ok thanks
[20:04] <Stoffer> brobostigon, fyi, it seems to be working fine
[20:04] <levander> ATG: Or, just turn off hardware acceleration and use the open source ATI driver?
[20:04] <gabriel> flannel i'm connected on my desktop pc, dhcp ... but my laptop doesn't want to connect with dhcp so i thought i could manually set them ..but i forgot them, i had them on a piece of paper somewhere
[20:04] <Stoffer> brobostigon, thanks
[20:04] <mokona> anyone have any idea why I'd suddenly lose the ability to type in the location box in file browser?  while still being able to type elsewhere
[20:04] <mateusz> levander: I dont have gobal volume in mixer appler
[20:04] <mateusz> levander: only pcm
[20:04] <clearzen> sudo nmap -sS <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[20:04] <brobostigon> Stoffer: youre welcome
[20:04] <Flannel> gabriel: Ah, you can set them.  You can check on your desktop, they should be the same.  If you control the router, you can chcek on the router too.
[20:04] <ATG> levander: It's always worked before, I'm assuming the problem is related to the fact that I just upgraded motherboards. Redid everything, it all worked fine except the video. So, I'll try with hardware accel off. Thanks!
[20:04] <gabriel> flannel i dont know where to find them on my desktop that's why i'm asking ... ifconfig only displays my ip
[20:05] <levander> mateusz: I have no idea, sorry.  I'd look for info from the ALSA project (sound drivers Ubuntu uses).  Maybe there's an #alsa channel on freenode?
[20:05] <DRebellion> clearzen, actually, the -sS flag isn't needed as this is the default. also, it would be best to run with root privaleges (sudo) to get the best detection. :P
[20:05] <dmarsa> my ati works fine. it being an x1950Pro. You tried using the binary from the ati website ATG?
[20:05] <levander> fiXXXerMet: Where are you with the nv driver?
[20:05] <clearzen> ahorriblemess: sudo nmap -sS -p 21-9000 <IP_ADDRESS>/24 would be a little faster
[20:05] <ATG> dmarsa: i'm actually doing that now, thanks
[20:05] <Flannel> gabriel: ah, this is on the desktop.  Um, try one of the GUI things.  It may tell you.  Or, we can just assume you've got a normal setup.  Whats the IP of your desktop machine?
[20:06] <meoblast001> ubuntu is starting to irritate me the last few weeks.... soon im gonna stop defending it over windows
[20:06] <levander> meoblast001: Is that a threat?
[20:06] <astro76> gabriel: ifconfig should give mask also, route -v will give mask and gateway
[20:06] <MasterShrek> sounds like it...
[20:07] <JFactor> Hello, I am attempting to install a .tar package, I am in the extracted directory and I type ./configure however nothing happens
[20:07] <ahorriblemess> ok, so I checked netstat, I don't knowwhat I"m looking at, how would I know if a port is open?

[20:07] <ubotu> meoblast001: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[20:07] <gabriel> thanks i got it, flannel, astro76 thanks
[20:07] <HumanOdyssey> I'm on Windows, but I just came here to LOL.
[20:07] <lz7> he is the one who knows the truth
[20:07] <levander> Flannel: He wasn't being rude, I was just playing with him.
[20:07] <Flannel> !patience | meoblast001
[20:07] <Flannel> er.  gah
[20:07] <meoblast001> levander: if computers just dont stop working.... im gonna stop.... i reinstalled the whole dang os and i still have a dang bug on my login screen
[20:08] <meoblast001> levander: i gave up on that
[20:08] <levander> meoblast001: Cool.
[20:08] <sn00zer> is there a way to find out why amarok is taking 92% of my cpu whenever the track changes?
[20:08] <Stoffer> is Fat32 a really slow file system?  Because it takes around 6 sec to delete a text file from my Fat32 external usb hdd
[20:08] <syngindub001> looking for help on mounting please?
[20:08] <Flannel> meoblast001: You've been here for a little over 20 minutes, don't despair just yet.
[20:08] <levander> meoblast001: I'd tell you what kind of printer it is, but I don't know.
[20:08] <meoblast001> does canonical offer tech support and how much
[20:08] <MasterShrek> synacktion, what are you trying to mount?
[20:08] <levander> meoblast001: Try #cups for that question?
[20:08] <b3by> hi
[20:08] <meoblast001> k
[20:08] <MasterShrek> meoblast001, yes they do, ubuntu.com should give you information, but you are better off here getting free support imho
[20:08] <levander> meoblast001: canonical.com/support - no idea how much
[20:09] <b3by> talking bout support?
[20:09] <epifanio_> L3ttuc3: where can i look : http://rafb.net/p/JFiXHS95.html
[20:09] <MasterShrek> syngindub001, what are you trying to mount?
[20:09] <meoblast001> i dont have intentions on angering anyone but 90% of the time i leave without an answer
[20:09] <Tortured> if you have to copy a multi disk game to hd to install under wine, do you have to have a no cd patch? boy its a bummer the forums are down
[20:09] <syngindub001> i have an external drive that mounts when i boot to /dev/sb1 and i access through /media/disk. however sometimes i need to umount and repair. how can i easily remount to previous location
[20:09] <MasterShrek> meoblast001, you have yet to ask a question since ive been here, there arent always people aroudn who know exactly what you are trying to do
[20:10] <b3by> beg your pardon
[20:10] <syngindub001> sdb1
[20:10] <levander> meoblast001: Me too.  I kind of figure this channel is really for noobs.  Ubuntu has a lot of people trying Linux for the first time since it's so easy.  You're not trying just the basic stuff.
[20:10] <MasterShrek> meoblast001, have you ever consulted the forums? (they are down atm) but they are very useful
[20:10] <brobostigon> meoblast001: you can only get an answer, if somone knows an answer, if no one answers, no one knows
[20:10]  * olie oops
[20:10] <L3ttuc3> epifanio you're already there, it's a file, syslog or kern.log
[20:10] <b3by> does anyone have an idea on how to get a dwl-120+ working on ubuntu?
[20:10] <meoblast001> MasterShrek: i did and they told me to go away because its "down"
[20:10] <MasterShrek> syngindub001, first off you need a place to mount it, /media/sdb1 is usually a good sopt: sudo mkdir /media/sdb1
[20:11] <L3ttuc3> epifanio however, you can also access those via system -> administration -> system log. that would probably be easier considering.
[20:11] <epifanio> yes i find it, reading and paste
[20:11] <Flannel> meoblast001: Not everyone is awake all the time, you've just gotta be patient, repeat your question every 20 minutes or so.  Eventually, someone who's on will be able to help.  While waiting, check the forums and google (I know, forums are down at the moment).
[20:11] <meoblast001> brobostigon: we'll someone here has to have a network printer, the Gnome they used in feisty had a very easy interface, then they changed it
[20:11] <b3by> T_T
[20:11] <MasterShrek> meoblast001, i dont use gnome, but try #cups or #gnome if you cant get help here
[20:11] <meoblast001> Flannel: i googled until the results stopped having the word ubuntu in it
[20:12] <martillo> anyone familiar with installing flash player on opera in ubuntu?
[20:12] <b3by> am i writing on the right place?
[20:12] <MasterShrek> syngindub001, then: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1
[20:12] <Starnestommy> b3by: looks like it
[20:12] <Cpudan80> b3by: to do what?
[20:12] <b3by> trying to find some help baout a wireless usb card
[20:12] <syngindub001> MasterShrek, the device on /dev/sdb1 mounts on boot to /media/disk. when unmounting the disk folder is removed so i can't remount to this location as i'd like
[20:12] <pharum> help help help i need help :P
[20:12] <Cpudan80> !wireless | b3by
[20:12] <ubotu> b3by: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[20:12] <Flannel> meoblast001: I'm not saying you didnt, or havent, just giving suggestions on how to fill the time.  The others are right too, you might try asking the cups people proper.
[20:13] <Cpudan80> pharum: With...?
[20:13] <pharum> i have strange problem with my mouse :/
[20:13] <b3by> i red documentation
[20:13] <pharum> i have 9 button mouse but i can use only 3 buttons
[20:13] <meoblast001> Flannel: no one in cups is even toalking
[20:13] <lintel> hi, I'd like to install Ubuntu on my Acer TM 2480. Anybody out here who can tell me if it goes well? (WLAN, sleep)
[20:13] <Cpudan80> holy crap
[20:13] <MasterShrek> synacktion, thats because its being auto-mounted, you can just create a directory, like i said before to mount it where you want it.
[20:13] <b3by> but i still can't find my answer
[20:13] <Cpudan80> A 9 button mouse?
[20:13] <astro76> meoblast001: it's probably going to be AppSocket/HP JetDirect
[20:13] <pharum> yea
[20:13] <b3by> ndiswrapper doesn't work
[20:13] <Cpudan80> pharum: picture!
[20:13] <pharum> solotech tm-80
[20:13] <Cpudan80> ok

[20:14] <syngindub001> ok, but will the shares be affected then?
[20:14] <mateusz> How to disable stupid indexing thing ?
[20:14] <mateusz> can I remove it /
[20:14] <MasterShrek> lintel, put the cd in your drive and boot of it and find out, sleep probably wont work all that well, never really does in linux
[20:14] <mateusz> ?
[20:14] <meoblast001> astro76: by hostname, does it mean ip address?
[20:14] <astro76> meoblast001: but if it's newish it's possible it's IPP, the manual should help
[20:14] <MasterShrek> meoblast001, either way, ip address is probably better imo
[20:14] <zozobra> How do you mount a dual layer ISO so that you can view both sessions?
[20:14] <astro76> meoblast001: it should take an IP also
[20:14] <pharum> http://www.dooyoo.co.uk/mice-trackballs/techsolo-tm-80/

[20:16] <MasterShrek> lintel, the wifi might, its hard to say though, if you can pastebin the output of lspci -vv    i can give you some kind of an idea on how it will work
[20:16]  * MasterShrek will brb
[20:16] <b3by> no idea?
[20:16] <syngindub001> MasterShrek, can i override the auto-mount so i can specify where it gets mounted ?
[20:17] <mrgogetem> has any one put yahoo messgr on ubuntu and how do it work
[20:17] <clearzen> syngindub001: yes, it is set in the /etc/fstab file
[20:17] <Tortured> syngindub001, you can set where it mounts in fstab
[20:17] <astro76> mrgogetem: I just use Pidgin
[20:17] <Starnestommy> mrgogetem: I think pidgin works with yahoo
[20:18] <cornishman> pidgin works better
[20:18] <syngindub001> ok i'll try that
[20:18] <L3ttuc3> epifanio what jumps out at me are the error messages around line 248 in the first paste about rpcbind... however, im not entirely sure how to fix it.
[20:18] <mrgogetem> ya but i cant get my cam to work
[20:18] <cornishman> You wouldn't in yahoo messenger either

[20:19] <jrib> mateusz: system -> preferences -> indexing  no need for the caps
[20:20] <b3by> what if ndiswrapper tells me driver installation could be wrong?
[20:20] <Magus_X> cornishman: aMSN? Gaim? Mercuty?
[20:20] <meoblast001> what do i do if i cant find a printer on the gnome printer list and the ubuntu forums are down so all the results on google wont work

[20:20] <mateusz> jrib: How to kill it?
[20:20] <zozobra> mateusz: System> Preferences> Indexing Preferences> Uncheck "Enable Indexing"
[20:20] <Webu> Is there any other light GUI's like XFCE?
[20:20] <Starnestommy> mateusz: kill `pidof trackerd` ?
[20:20] <jrib> mateusz: it's a gui, you check and uncheck things
[20:20] <zozobra> Webu: Flux

[20:22] <LDS_Trooper> Greetings! I was gifted with an iPAQ today and I was wondering where I can get info on getting it to work with Ubuntu.

[20:22] <Webu> Hmm, I'
[20:22] <levander> LDS_Trooper: I'm trying to figure out the same thing for a RAZR V3xx and haven't had much luck.  I'd start at UbuntuForums.org - but, it's down right now.
[20:23] <LDS_Trooper> levander, thanks!
[20:23] <Celes> I need help
[20:23] <XredX> hey does ubuntu come with an Identd server?
[20:23] <Stoffer> can someone help me with the trivial issue of getting translucency and shadows working in KDE?
[20:23] <levander> XredX: Yes.  I don't know how to use it though.
[20:23] <astro76> meoblast001: oh when you said directly to the router I thought it had a print server, you have a network printer... what kind of printer?
[20:23] <zozobra> clearzen: that works but I only see the data meant for one side of the disc. Ex: It's a 7.5GB ISO and when mounted, the contents are 400mb.
[20:23] <LDS_Trooper> levander, I know there is the palmOS stuff on the system menu.. but this is not PalmOS
[20:23] <Starnestommy> XredX: not by default, but hidentd, oidentd, and a few others are in the repositiroes
[20:23] <david08> hello, how do i put the recycle bin on the desktop?
[20:23] <XredX> xlnt thanks ^_^
[20:23] <astro76> meoblast001: it's probably going to be IPP
[20:24] <Celes> can someone help me with my sound issue? my friend said that my sound was stolen.. by some program and that I have to restart alsa yet I dont know what that means??
[20:24] <levander> LDS_Trooper: I don't know much about it.
[20:24] <meoblast001> astro76: Brother MFC-5440 CN (and im angry that they no longer make refil kits on cartridges lol)
[20:24] <LDS_Trooper> levander, seems we are in the same boat
[20:24] <levander> LDS_Trooper: And, it kind of sux that that's all they've got on the menus.  PalmOS is dead.
[20:24] <Cpudan80> Hey ehh
[20:24] <howdoudo> I know this is off topic but anyone here use AdvancedMess?

[20:35] <epifanio_> on the nfs mount step
[20:35] <thiemster> L3ttuc3: have you tried unmounting them?
[20:35] <thiemster> L3ttuc3: and then remounting them with the mount command
[20:35] <L3ttuc3> thiemster that includes a keyboard and a mouse, and a cd drive.
[20:35] <MattJ> thiemster: Do you have the Compiz configuration editor installed?
[20:35] <Geezle> Hey folks, I'm on a brand new install of 7.10 and it won't mount my CDROM for some reason.  I get the error "mount: special device /dev/hdb does not exist" but I just finished using the drive to install.

[20:36] <rainwalker> Starnestommy: I have all the repos enabled, but it's not listed in synaptic
[20:36] <Starnestommy> rainwalker: actually, I just checked and it isn't. whoops

[21:01] <yaro> Does anyone know an alternate place I can get the sun-java6-plugin package? I can't seem to sudo apt-get install it or find it in Synaptic.
[21:01] <adac2> eifzon_: no...the start button is not enabled
[21:01] <DJ_Danni> I am in trobule with my Webserver if you test http://www.spacestream.net she ask you to Download somthang but what can i do?
[21:01] <eitreach> Has anyone got any info on the kernel exploit mentioned on Slashdot this evening? -> http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/02/10/2011257
[21:01] <eifzon_> adac2, ask in #keb
[21:01] <eifzon_> adac2, ask in #k3b*
[21:01] <adac2>  eifzon_:k thx
[21:02] <eifzon_> hmm, it was empty there :P
[21:02] <eifzon_> try ##linux then
[21:02] <spaleyAE> Hi all - I just installed the latest ubuntu and created the initial user (spaley) but it does not seem to be able to run sudo... any ideas?
[21:02] <Celes> well whats wrong with my sound
[21:02] <Celes> why wont it work?
[21:02] <yaro> spaleyES: What error are you getting?
[21:02] <demreath> Hi! I need a help: I've set up headless server with VNC access for users (XFCE) and I found out that everyone can power off or reset the machine via logout button in XFCE! How can I disable it?
[21:02] <dmarsa> Holmes89, what are you trying to do?
[21:02] <spaleyAE> spaley is not in the sudoers file
[21:03] <spaleyAE> but spaley is the only account I created (and done during install)
[21:03] <tnnc> can someone tell me what channel on here is for php help
[21:03] <Webu> Holmes89, what are you trying to transfer :)?
[21:03] <Sonja> print test page works! but printing anything from other programs does not work. the print jobs just queue up somewhere. help
[21:03] <Geezle> Somebody please, I need help.  I just installed Ubuntu 7.10 but now it won't let me mount my CD-ROM which I really need
[21:03] <danand_> soundray - try running ssh with the -v option for more verbose logging - that may turn up some error messages you can look into
[21:03] <Stoffer> why would the Synaptic package manager be able to easily find kde4-core while Adept would not?
[21:03] <adac2> eifzon_: yeah both empty
[21:03] <yaro> Does anyone know an alternate place I can get the sun-java6-plugin package? I can't seem to sudo apt-get install it or find it in Synaptic.
[21:04] <brobostigon> yaro: have a look at medibuntu, it miht be there
[21:04] <Geezle> I get the error "mount: special device /dev/hdb does not exist"
[21:04] <danand_> Geezle - type groups in a terminal to check if you are part of the cdrom group
[21:04] <spaleyAE> yaro: not sure you saw my response in all the chatter, but the error I get is "spaley is not in the sudoers file". Of course, since spaley is the only account I can use (it's the only one I created at install) I don't understand why 'spaley' isn't in the sudoers file. Shouldn't that be automatic?
[21:05] <Celes> I give up :(
[21:05] <Celes> with my sound
[21:05] <Geezle> Yep, the cdrom shows up there
[21:05] <Daviey>  /goto +99999999999999999999999
[21:05] <soundray> danand_: thanks -- I'll try
[21:05] <Celes> my friend on a comic channel is trying to help me
[21:05] <yaro> spaleyAE: Yes, it should.
[21:05] <Daviey> sorry
[21:06] <Ritter_Rost> guten tag allerseits
[21:06] <spaleyAE> yaro: right, so any ideas on what to do about it? I could reinstall from scratch but that seems drastic, and with no guarantee that I'd have a different outcome.
[21:06] <spaleyAE> Is it possible I did something wrong during install? Doesn't seem like I had a lot of options to screw up.
[21:06] <simone> Hi someone cat tell me how to encode audio in Mp3
[21:06] <simone> ?
[21:06] <danand_> Geezle - are you sure hdb is your cdrom drive?
[21:06] <yaro> spaleyAE: How long have you been in this current install? Do you have a lot of data?
[21:06] <spaleyAE> yaro: installed it this afternoon for the first time
[21:06] <spaleyAE> no data
[21:07] <spaleyAE> starting over is an option
[21:07] <Geezle> danand_ as far as I know it is...that's what it's set to in /etc/fstab but give me a minute and I'll double check
[21:07] <spaleyAE> I just don't understand what I could have done wrong during install though.
[21:07] <yaro> spaleyAE: That's what I would do. I'm not sure if sudoers is a group. Anyone know if it is?
[21:07] <danand_> Geezle - try eject /dev/hdb and see if your cdrom tray pops out!
[21:07] <spaleyAE> 'spaley' is in the 'adm' group which I assume is admin, yes?
[21:08] <Geezle> danand_: no dice, it says it's unable to open or find the device
[21:08] <Starnestommy> spaleyAE: it should be admin, not adm
[21:08] <danand_> spaley - adm is a different group to admin
[21:08] <spaleyAE> danand_: ah, ok
[21:09] <TurtleBoots> hi all
[21:09] <dmarsa> Geezle, why not just use /dev/cdrom? it should be linked to your device either way
[21:09] <spaleyAE> 'spaley' is in adm, dialout, cdrom, floppy, audio, dip, video, plugdev, scanner and lpadmin
[21:09] <dmarsa> or did you try that Geezle ?
[21:09] <TurtleBoots> how do you find the physical address of the boot device in Ubuntu?
[21:09] <TurtleBoots> want to reinstall GRUB
[21:09] <Geezle> dmarsa: when I try to eject /dev/cdrom I get the same error
[21:09] <soundray> danand_: ssh -v does not give any details relating to the DRM error
[21:10] <spaleyAE> Starnestommy: Can you think of any reason why 'spaley', which was created as part of the installer process, should not have automatically been added to the 'admin' group?
[21:10] <j_humphrey> !flash
[21:10] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (for !Dapper and !Edgy, a recent version is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[21:10] <branstrom> fuse: failed to open /dev/fuse: Permission denied
[21:10] <Holmes89> dmarsa I'm trying to copy over an assets folder and some html documents
[21:10] <branstrom> Why is that?
[21:10] <Geezle> Is there a simple way to check where my cdrom is?
[21:10] <Holmes89> from anywhere if someone can help
[21:10] <branstrom> I'm trying to use afpfs-ng
[21:11] <soundray> branstrom: you need to 'sudo adduser $USER fuse' (add yourself to the fuse group)
[21:11] <branstrom> soundray: hm, kay
[21:11] <Holmes89> I have ubuntu desktop and windows on the same computer as ubuntu server
[21:11] <demreath> branstrom: and then logout and login again
[21:11] <soundray> !fuse > branstrom, see also the help pages (private message)
[21:11] <lz7> Geezle: where have you seen your cdrom last time?
[21:11] <branstrom> Thanks, guys.
[21:11] <Holmes89> I also have network computers so I just need to transfer the files somehow to the server
[21:12] <lz7> Geezle: nevermind
[21:12] <martillo> anyone familiar with installing flash player on opera in ubuntu?
[21:12] <thiemster> martillo: is it on the adobe flash download page?
[21:12] <spaleyAE> ok, last time for now to everyone... why would it be that I would create a user 'spaley' during install and it would not be given admin privilege?
[21:13] <dmarsa> well Holmes89, the command you want to use is 'cp' used as 'cp /source/directory/file /destination/directory/file' . however i don't know where you want to copy to. so you might have to clear that up
[21:13] <Starnestommy> spaleyAE: sounds like a bug
[21:13] <danand_> spaleyAE - agree with Starnestommy
[21:13] <Holmes89> right but how to I get it off of a thumb drive
[21:13] <martillo> thiemster: i downloaded it from the opera page, and it installed, but only for firefox
[21:13] <Starnestommy> spaleyAE: I think you can go into recovery mode, log in as root, and do 'adduser spaley admin'
[21:13] <Holmes89> it can't find it so how do I mount it?
[21:13] <yaro> Put myself in Medibuntu, installed in Synaptic and.... Firefox still doesn't see it.
[21:13] <demreath> martillo: you just need to make a symlink or copy to /usr/lib/opera/plugins
[21:14] <spaleyAE> Starnestommy: ok, I'll try that. I'm using 7.10 server, btw.
[21:14] <spaleyAE> Starnestommy: thanks
[21:14] <Holmes89> oh I just need to copy it to the /var/www/ folder
[21:14] <danand_> spaleyAE - no - just sudo adduser spaley admin
[21:14] <spaleyAE> Starnestommy: what's the easiest way into recovery mode?
[21:14] <spaleyAE> danand_: I can't use sudo
[21:14] <martillo> demreath: thanks, but keep in mind im still a newbie
[21:14] <Starnestommy> spaleyAE: reboot?
[21:14] <dmarsa> you need to copy from a thumb drive to the /var/www folder?
[21:14] <spaleyAE> danand_: that's exactly the problem I'm having
[21:14] <Holmes89> I know where I need to put it, the command to copy it, I just don't know how to get the server to find where to copy it from
[21:14] <Holmes89> yeah
[21:14] <spaleyAE> Starnestommy: great, th
[21:14] <spaleyAE> thx
[21:14] <flake> how can I unzip a listing and redirect to a file
[21:15] <danand_> spaleyAE - oh crap - of course :)
[21:15] <dmarsa> holmes are you familiar with the mount command at all?
[21:15] <Holmes89> no
[21:15] <flake> unzip -l test.zip > test               isn't right
[21:15] <demreath> martillo: sudo cp /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/opera/plugins/
[21:15] <soundray> Not making any headway here... "open DRM failed" when I run glxgears remotely via ssh. (local glxgears works)
[21:15] <yaro> Why isn't Firefox recognizing Java? Is it becaue I'm using an AMD64 system?
[21:15] <dax_roc> Evening all
[21:15] <DJ_Danni> Do somone know whats wrong?
[21:16] <branstrom> soundray: still I cannot mount if I don't sudo - it seems the mounting in particular is failing... Before it complained about permission but not now, it just says "mounting failed"
[21:16] <danand_> soundray - can you remotely open other X apps
[21:16] <dax_roc> Any one know of a good (multi-core aware) * to dvd tool , transcoding software ?
[21:16] <martillo> demreath: in the command window?
[21:16] <soundray> yaro: yes. You can install the 32bit java plugin into 64bit firefox with nspluginwrapper
[21:16] <ikonia> dax_roc: mencoder
[21:16] <Eimhin> ive got a toshiba satellite pro and when i try and change the volume it stops playing sound altogether untill i reboot
[21:16] <demreath> martillo: in terminal
[21:16] <dax_roc> ikonia: is it multi-core aware ?
[21:16] <soundray> danand_: yes, non GLX programs are fine
[21:16] <yaro> soundray: I was afraid of that. But I had to do that with Flash...
[21:16] <Eimhin> does anyone know what could be wrong
[21:17] <martillo> demreath: THANK YOU
[21:17] <soundray> branstrom: you need to log out and in again to activate the group change
[21:17] <branstrom> soundray: The target directory that I'm trying to mount in is now a+rwx and owned by me, and it still doesn't work.
[21:17] <chaosrl> is anyone familiar with designworks?
[21:17] <mich54_> hey guys , i need help in installin Backtrack 3 on my hard drive , i know this is the ubuntu channel but i couldn't find any solution in any other channel , anyway , when it loads it freezes after an error :"kernel panic - not syncing : vfs : unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,3) " so any ideas ?
[21:17] <branstrom> soundray: did that :/
[21:17] <spaleyAE> Starnestommy: when I went into recovery mode, I"m in as root, but I tried 'adduser spaley admin' and got 'The group 'admin' does not exist.'
[21:17] <JC_Denton_> My apt-get is broken - keeps saying f-spot and others reporting errors: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1),  apt-get install -f
[21:17] <JC_Denton_> doesn't fix it
[21:17] <dmarsa> Holmes89, ok... well to make it easier, create a directory using 'sudo mkdir /directory/name/' . then use the mount command to mount the thumb drive in the directory you just created. i.e 'sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb /directory/created'. the /dev/sd? depends on what your thumb drive is
[21:17] <spaleyAE> wtf?
[21:17] <branstrom> the permissions error is gone, but it won't mount...
[21:17] <danand_> soundray - hmmm....
[21:17] <branstrom> so weird
[21:18] <Flannel> spaleyAE: Try sudo usermod -G admin -a spaley
[21:18] <Starnestommy> spaleyAE: try editing /etc/sudoers with visudo in recoverymode
[21:18] <Eimhin> also every time i play sound i get this really high pitched noise in the background
[21:18] <soundray> branstrom: did you read the help as linked in the ubotu factoid?
[21:18] <j_humphrey> how do i get flash working in gutsy?
[21:18] <Jack_Sparrow> !flashissues
[21:18] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation has been broken for some time. A fix has been released now, although it might not have yet reached all mirrors. If the update fails to install Flash, try « sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-nonfree ; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree »
[21:18] <demreath> I need a help: where can I set permissions for rebooting system etc. from XFCE menu? Now any unpriviliged user can do it!
[21:19] <danand_> spaleyAE - does cat /etc/group | grep admin show anything?
[21:19] <Jack_Sparrow> demreath: Would that be a better question for the xubutu channel ?
[21:19] <spaleyAE> danand_: it shows lpadmin:x:117:spaley
[21:19] <spaleyAE> I did just add 'spaley' to sudoers
[21:19] <spaleyAE> so maybe that'll fix me up
[21:20] <branstrom> soundray: yeah, not sure what to look for though
[21:20] <SuperQ> Anyone looked into the vmsplice() exploit yet?
[21:20] <spaleyAE> but I'm wondering now if anything else is 'broken'
[21:20] <Holmes89> okay what do you mean the /dev/sdb depends on the thumb drive?
[21:20] <danand_> spaleyAE - lpadmin is line printer admin - it appears you don't have an admin group :O
[21:20] <spaleyAE> danand_: agreed, but shouldn't that have happened during install?
[21:20] <Flannel> spaleyAE: If this was a botched install (groups are made at the end), its likely that there are other issues.  You might try reinstalling
[21:20] <soundray> branstrom: what's the command that fails?
[21:20] <spaleyAE> Flannel: I think you're probably correct
[21:20] <danand_> spaleyAE - no, definately not
[21:21] <dmarsa> well the thumb drive will be of the /dev/sd range. if you have no SATA or SCSI drives it should be sda, otherwise it could span through sda sdb sdc etc etc.
[21:21] <spaleyAE> ok, I'm going to reinstall... annoying but not the end of the world... thanks for the help everyone
[21:21] <danand_> spaleyAE - agree with reinstall
[21:21] <Starnestommy> spaleyAE: I think someone came in here before with a similar issue. Editing /etc/sudoers worked.
[21:21] <danand_> spaleyAE - luck
[21:21] <branstrom> soundray: afp_client mount -u fredrik -p - Benton.local:Share /lan/share
[21:21] <spaleyAE> Starnestommy: yeah, I did that, but now I"m worried what else is broken
[21:22] <spaleyAE> probably best to at least try a clean reinstall first
[21:22] <rulfx> Hello there
[21:22] <spaleyAE> I mean, it doesn't take THAT long ;)
[21:22] <Holmes89> it says I get the wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb (or sda) missing codepage or other error
[21:22] <branstrom>  /lan/share exists and is a+rwx and owned by my user
[21:22] <spaleyAE> any known issues with 7.10 server regarding the problems I am seeing?
[21:23] <Flannel> spaleyAE: Did you check the CD for defects?
[21:23] <soundray> branstrom: and the same thing works when you do it with sudo?
[21:23] <yaro> Okay, this is starting to *really* get me mad.
[21:23] <branstrom> soundray: correct
[21:23] <dmarsa> Holmes89, try leave the 'vfat' out of the mount command i gave...
[21:23] <spaleyAE> Flannel: yes, that's the first thing I did before installing. It checked out 100% fine.
[21:23] <mich54_> hey guys ! how can i solve the error "kernel panic - not syncing : vfs : unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,3) " ???
[21:23] <astralsin> what's the replacement for alsaconf in gutsy?
[21:23] <lynucs> guys, how can i start programs depending on my session-choice in gdm? via .desktop file??
[21:23] <branstrom> the thing is, when I sudo, the dir becomes    ?---------  ? ?          ?                ? share
[21:23] <branstrom> soundray: and I can only access it through root
[21:24] <Tyczek> i've got problem with kernel 2.6.24, i can't suspend or hibernate... anyone had it ?
[21:24] <soundray> branstrom: I'm not sure what to suggest. Maybe there is a way with a fstab entry, using the "users" and "uid" options
[21:24] <Flannel> yaro: Did you get ia32-sun-java6-bin?
[21:24] <branstrom> soundray: drwx---r-x  7 root    root     194 2008-02-10 22:59 share    if I do sudo ls -la
[21:24] <Flare183> i'm back
[21:25] <yoluca> wonder if firefox loads pages slows on every machine not just mine ;)
[21:25] <Flare183> !flare183
[21:25] <ubotu> shhhh you'll only encourage more comments and we have seen enough of them already. ;-)
[21:25] <branstrom> soundray: hm, kay
[21:25] <yaro> Flannel: What repository?
[21:25] <Flannel> yaro: multiverse
[21:25] <Flare183> the multiverse
[21:25] <Flare183> oops
[21:26] <branstrom> soundray: thanks for trying to help :)
[21:26] <StaticSignal> Hi again, #ubuntu. I'm having a networking issue- I'm trying to connect to my wireless network with a static IP so I can ICS, but I can't get an internet connection using the same settings that I've always used for all my windows boxes! Would someone help me understand what I'm doing wrong, and fix it?
[21:26] <hacked``> guys, i have a Dell Latitude D800 laptop with a geforce 4200 Go in it. I have 7.10 install running on it and would like to enable desktop effects... whenever i try to do it from appearances it says 'desktop effects cannot be enabled' the ubuntu help says this is because the graphics card does not support desktop effects, but i have heard d800's running desktop effects
[21:26] <patogen> I can't seem to find how I can have a program running on all workspaces in xmonad
[21:26] <patogen> anyknow know how to achieve this?
[21:26] <ikonia> hacked``: if ubuntu says it's not supported....thats a pretty good clue
[21:26] <Flare183> hacked``: weird me too never tried it because i don't own it
[21:27] <yaro> Flannel: When this installs, where will it install the plugin so I can point ndspluginwrapper to it?
[21:27] <dmarsa> my bad Holmes89, use /dev/sda1 or /dev/sdb1
[21:27] <Holmes89> okay I left out vfat and I get sudo mount -t /dev/[ 2663.703713] dc: assuming drive cache: write through
[21:28] <hacked``> ikonia, maybe ubuntu isnt using the right driver ??
[21:28] <danand_> hacked`` - that should run deskyop effects - do you have the nvidia driver installed?
[21:28] <ikonia> hacked``: I think it is
[21:28] <hacked``> danand_, i would imagine so
[21:28] <Holmes89> wait
[21:28] <fyksen> Hello! I wondered if someone knew how to make windows xp run in ubuntu? In Wmvare? Crossover? paralelle? What is best, and what supports directx?
[21:28] <Flannel> yaro: er, I guess not.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMD64/FirefoxAndPlugins
[21:28] <hacked``> how to dumble check though
[21:28] <Holmes89> something else happend, hold on a second
[21:28] <hacked``> double*
[21:28] <dmarsa> ok...
[21:28] <ikonia> hacked``: join #nvidia and ask about driver compatability version
[21:29] <danand_> hacked`` - in a terminal type lsmod | grep nvidia
[21:29] <yaro> Ah, tht points me to the path I need. Not to manuallt install it in the wrapper. Joy.
[21:29] <rulfx> fyksen: use VMware
[21:30] <fyksen> Hello! I wondered if someone knew how to make windows xp run in ubuntu? In Wmvare? Crossover? paralelle? What is best, and what supports directx?
[21:30] <fyksen> okey
[21:30] <fyksen> wmvare supports directx and sound?
[21:30] <ikonia> fyksen: you can only run the OS in a virtualised environment like vmware
[21:30] <fyksen> I know that ikonia : )
[21:30] <AHemlocksLie> I'm trying to configure the drivers for my ATI RADEON 9550 graphics card, but it's not working. When I try to run "sudo aticonfig --initial", it gives me the following error: http://www.pastebin.org/18891 It also takes it upon itself to delete my xorg.conf. Anyone have any ideas what's wrong?
[21:31] <ikonia> fyksen: so why say things like "cross-over" which won't run the OS only applications, if you already knew it
[21:31] <yaro> Argh. What's the command for that wrapper again? It's so hard to remember.
[21:31] <hacked``> paging danand_
[21:32] <danand_> hacked`` - paging??
[21:32] <fyksen> Ahh, i didnt know that crossover only runed application. But I have tried parallels today.. Then I wil try wmvare.. Ty, for the help :) SRY for the bad English!
[21:32] <serqiu> hello, what is more stable, gutsy or feisty?
[21:32] <serqiu> can anyone answer
[21:32] <Flannel> serqiu: feisty, because its older.
[21:32] <loa> heh)
[21:33] <ikonia> serqiu: gutsy is later, and more current
[21:33] <soundray> serqiu: they are both stable
[21:33] <loa> hhh
[21:33] <Flannel> serqiu: but that doesnt mean gutsy isnt stable.
[21:33] <Holmes89> well I get this long thing about usage, naming, etc
[21:33] <hacked``> paging danand_
[21:33] <dmarsa> yeah
[21:33] <ikonia> hacked``: he responded
[21:33] <Holmes89> is something not mounting?
[21:33] <danand_> hacked`` - what is paging??
[21:33] <hacked``> i got disconnected though, so couldnt read reply
[21:33] <hacked``> danand_, what was your reply to my question, did not read it
[21:34] <dmarsa> Holmes89, do an 'ls -l /dev/sd* and let me know how many devices in terms of sda sdb etc there are
[21:34] <danand_> hacked`` - try typing lsmod | grep nvidia in a terminal and see what it turns up
[21:34] <greentea> Which one is better vmware vs virtualbox????
[21:35] <ikonia> greentea: it's personal opinion - try them
[21:35] <Holmes89> okay I have sda, sda1, sda2, sda5, sdb, sdb1, sdb2, sdc, sdc1, sdd, sde, sdf, sdg
[21:35] <Neochick> Hai guys. Im trying to lose my windows dependancy but Ubuntu us making is hard for me. I upgraded to Gusty last night via the update manager and that went fine. I installed a couple of things mentioned on ubuntuguide and that went fine. it restartedfine and everything. Now, this morning i went to load, got to grub, went to my normal ubuntu, it started loading, then went to a terminal sorta thing.

[21:36] <ikonia> Neochick: boot into safe mode and do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and stop reading ubuntuguide
[21:37] <screenname92834> hello all
[21:37] <Holmes89> okay it seemed to work, now what?
[21:37] <brobostigon> !fr | maya
[21:37] <ubotu> maya: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.

[21:37] <screenname92834> I  HAVE A PROBLEM ha ha didn't you guess that?
[21:37] <x-punk> is it possible to install mac software in linux using an emulator?
[21:37] <hacked``> danand_, point is, why cant i run desktop effects
[21:37] <Neochick> ok ill try that
[21:37] <dmarsa> ok. now cd to the directory... i.e 'cd /directory/created'
[21:37] <ikonia> greentea: no
[21:37] <Neochick> and ill stop reading ubuntuguide
[21:37] <screenname92834> my problem is that I can't connect to ubuntu.com
[21:37] <ikonia> greentea: it's in the package manager
[21:37] <Holmes89> okay
[21:37] <Holmes89> did that
[21:37] <dmarsa> now 'ls -l'
[21:37] <Holmes89> now what?
[21:37] <azdrubal> sup holmes
[21:37] <screenname92834> but I seem to be able to connect to other websites
[21:37] <dmarsa> and see if the files are there
[21:38] <screenname92834> and what's more, on my fedora box, I can see ubuntu.com just fine!!!
[21:38] <Holmes89> it is, hey thanks a lot, do I then use the cp command

[21:38] <Holmes89> okay thanks a bunch
[21:38] <dmarsa> cp /source /destination
[21:38] <Holmes89> that really helped
[21:38] <dmarsa> pleasure
[21:38] <danand_> hacked`` - sorry - all out of ideas on that one
[21:38] <ATG_> If somebody has a minute, I have an X related problem (i think). I switched to the fglrx driver; didn't work. No problem, I went back to ati, reconfigured xorg, and restarted. It all works fine, except compiz/emerald don't seem to be enabled
[21:39] <DeliciousCake> stupid Q: If I download the ubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso I'm going to assume I can perform a Live CD boot with it right? cause I remembers years ago when I got the breezy badger CDs ordered there were two different ones, an install and a Live CD. thanks in advance :)
[21:39] <hacked``> when i go to system - administration - restricted drivers manager
[21:39] <ATG_> so, I have all my advanced desktop effects settings enabled, but I don't have window decorations, cube, etc.
[21:39] <hacked``> its enabled, and in use
[21:39] <MasterShrek> DeliciousCake, the install and livecd are the same now
[21:39] <soundray> x-punk: most OS X programs won't work. Have a look at pearpc, though
[21:39] <yaro> Nope, Firefox still can't see it. I'm going by about:plugins here

[21:40] <TurtleBoots> cd ..
[21:41] <TurtleBoots> Holmes89: cd ..
[21:41] <soundray> x-punk: there's also Basilisk II, but the best it can run is System 7 I think...
[21:41] <dmarsa> or just cd back to the directory you want
[21:41] <x-punk> brobostigon, ubotu: thanks
[21:41] <Holmes89> haha thanks sorry
[21:41] <MasterShrek> screenname92834, no u wont lose anything, but i would suggest waiting until hardy is released to upgrade, since dapper is lts and so is hardy
[21:41] <danand_> hacked`` - i'm not sure why you can't use desktop effects - can you run glxgears ok?
[21:41] <screenname92834> what's lts?
[21:41] <j_humphrey> when is hardy coming out?
[21:41] <MasterShrek> !lts
[21:41] <ubotu> LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.

[21:42] <j_humphrey> good thing i have /home in a seperate partition, that'll make it easier
[21:42] <dmarsa> Holmes89, remember to unmount the drive before removing it hey... 'umount /directory/where/mounted/' and it won't let you do that if you are in the directory
[21:42] <tmatix> top shows 100% cpu from nautilus
[21:43] <desijatt> hello guys

[21:55] <hefe_bia> hi! When I use xchat-gnome with the default settings - will channel entering / quitting be done quietly? (Don't want to annoy people...)
[21:55] <Flannel> ADHDYoshi: How big is your root? (and how full?) and how big is the freespace?
[21:55] <Slart> yoluca: isn't there a newer version of perl? or you have to have v5 ?
[21:55] <Starnestommy> yoluca: install perl instead of perl5
[21:55] <Slart> !info perl

[21:56] <Slart> yoluca: no need to be sorry.. no lives lost.. monetary losses at a minimum.. =)
[21:56] <Flannel> ADHDYoshi: What you do is (via liveCD), create a partition in that 24GB, move everything from / to it (via the cpio method) and then delete the 5GB and expand the 24 to 29
[21:56] <q_a_z_steve> ok, before I pull my hair out, I had gutsy installing, walked off, and it is back to the regular screen. I know it didn't reboot. DID IT INSTALL???
[21:57] <Flannel> ADHDYoshi: Or, 10GB, whatever.
[21:57] <ADHDYoshi> OK
[21:57] <simone> please help me.. It's a patents problem?

[21:58] <marylou> Hey, does anybody know an easy way to see the CPU temperature (for a Core 2 Duo)?
[21:58] <soundray> marylou: try acpi -V
[21:58] <Starnestommy> q_a_z_steve: I don't remember; I installed with the kubuntu cd
[21:59] <cbx33> Slart, are you compiling a fix?
 i think now
[21:59]  * Neochick wishes ubuntu would love her
 backup your files for example onto another harddrive
[21:59] <[adw]> ive installed the lamp pack, but how do i control if it should run on startup or manually?
[21:59] <VanDyke> heh

[22:00] <StYX> hi! i've an issue installing server 7.10 on a proliant dl320 g5 w/ embedded sata raid. i've setup a raid 1 but ubuntu still sees 2 physikal hdds and no raid drive. anyone installed on a proliant sata raid?
[22:00] <Slart> cbx33: nah.. I don't hand out shell accounts.. I'll just make a backup of my domain-server things just in case someone does bad things to it
[22:00] <marylou> soundray: Do I need to run that command with sudo?
[22:00] <dep> StYX: what's the raid device model?
[22:00] <soundray> marylou: no
[22:00] <cbx33> Slart, heheh
[22:00] <ForgetYouNot> m
[22:01] <ADHDYoshi> I don't have any other hard drives at the moment :/
[22:01] <Flannel> marylou: cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature
[22:01] <Slart> cbx33: it still needs some kind of local access.. either through a shell, webserver bug or similar.. they can't just remote own a computer
[22:01] <soundray> marylou: it seems that your chipset is not supported for reading out temperatures
[22:01] <soundray> marylou: you can try mbmon, but you may have to get by without temperature readouts
[22:02] <soundray> Flannel: if acpi -V doesn't work, this won't either, will it?
[22:02] <marylou> soundray: Thanks a lot. It's a fairly new mobo, so I'm betting that acpi is merely disabled.
[22:02] <StYX> dep: not too sure about the exact type as it only says "hp embedded smart array sata raid ich7". seems to be an adaptec controller telling by the copyright msg
[22:02] <cbx33> Slart true

[22:03] <baal> hi
[22:03] <screenname92834> guess what?
[22:03] <VanDyke> should check for smart reporting
[22:03] <screenname92834> I fixed my problem
[22:03] <screenname92834> I remembered that in a moment of paranoia I installed firestarter
[22:03] <[adw]> so, trying to make apache2 and mysql start manually, instead of automatic on boot, anyone know?
[22:03] <ahave> could someone explain to me why I am unable to gain an IP from my AP? (no security)
[22:03] <baal> anyone installed e-uae ? is there a Synaptic install ?
[22:03] <screenname92834> It's a firewall. So I switched it off (i've no idea what it does anyway) and tada!
[22:03] <Slart> cbx33: indeed... sooo many bad php-scripts out there....
[22:04] <screenname92834> I can connect to ubuntu again
[22:04] <Darkmystere_> Does anyone know why when i turn my card back to mode managed it turns to ath1 instead of ath0?
[22:04] <soundray> ahave: perhaps your AP doesn't have a DHCP server running?
[22:04] <dep> StYX: I'm trying to look up more information on the raid controller at the moment, it might be a bit
[22:04] <screenname92834> ubuntu.com is now giving me  my packages
[22:04] <ahave> soundray, my laptop is using it now
[22:04] <ahave> soundray, and i can obtain a list of dhcp clients
[22:04] <screenname92834> mind, there's one thing I'd like to ask  about
[22:04] <Darkmystere_> Also i cant seem to get it to connect to my Secured 2Wire Router..
[22:05] <ahave> soundray, and what is odd is that i can see my ubuntu box on there twice. one for ethernet one for wireless perhaps?
[22:05] <screenname92834> when using synaptics I got this warning message saying "software can not be authenticated".
[22:05] <screenname92834> Like what does that mean?
[22:05] <FolkeY> Does anyone have any experience of installing hamachi on ubuntu? I could use some help since i really can't get it to work... (Pretty new on linux ;) )
[22:05] <ADHDYoshi> Can't dd just copy a partition exactly with the same size?
[22:05] <Slart> screenname92834: you're using some external repos without having the key for them
[22:05] <screenname92834> Where is it getting this software from anyway? and what kind of authentication does it expect?
[22:05] <dep> StYX: do an 'lsmod | grep adpahci' and tell me if you have the adpahci driver loaded
[22:05] <StYX> dep: thanks. and helpful link would be fine. browsed the forum already but couldn't find anything helpful, only someone with the same prob
[22:05] <StYX> dep: will so, one sec
[22:05] <screenname92834> Do I need to install a key?
[22:06] <Neochick> WHOOT
[22:06] <Slart> screenname92834: yes.. there is usually a line with wget ....  that you run to add the key to your system
[22:06] <soundray> ahave: some wireless chipsets are finicky. Have you tried your Ubuntu setup with another AP?
[22:06]  * Neochick loves her ubuntu again
[22:06] <Darkmystere_> ADHDYoshi, If you use dd be sure to backup any information on that partion thats where it got its name "dd=Data Destroyer"
[22:06] <gub> hooray!
[22:06] <ahave> soundray, no i have not
[22:06] <Slart> screenname92834: have you added any repos lately?
[22:06] <Darkmystere_> !dd > ADHDYoshi
[22:06] <Goosemoose> i just accidented deleted a folder, how can i undo it?
[22:06] <Darkmystere_> !dd
[22:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[22:06] <Goosemoose> i used rm -rfd
[22:06] <Darkmystere_> hmm..
[22:06] <Darkmystere_> !DD
[22:07] <soundray> ahave: what's your wireless chipset?
[22:07] <ahave> soundray, could this be a driver issue? i have  realtek 8187 chipset
[22:07] <Goosemoose> i accidently deleted a folder rm -rfd folder
[22:07] <Neochick> once i moved the screen thing around so i could see it wanted me to type thingsi could to the xserver-xorg thing ^^
[22:07] <Goosemoose> how can i undo?
[22:07]  * Neochick has learned something today
[22:07] <screenname92834> slart: I don't know
[22:07] <usr_rob> i can mount NFS export in terminal, but not by the fstab, anyone?
[22:07] <luca_> i try to run and configure Dnsmasq on my machine now ... and i dont know what nameserver i need to enter i n/etc/resolv.conf its the primary dns from my isp ?
[22:08] <StYX> dep: not loaded
[22:08] <pingu> hey guys this isn't really ubuntu related but it is computer related. how can you put a password on just a normal folder or do you have to use a different type of folder or something
[22:08] <Slart> screenname92834: what's in your /etc/apt/sources.list ? pastebin it?
[22:08] <yoluca> any idea ?
[22:08] <ADHDYoshi> -_-;
[22:08] <screenname92834> slart: So  let me get this right: every repo will sign its output, and if you have its key, you can verify the source of your package?
[22:09] <StYX> dep: i'm checking this from export mode - execute a shell. is that correct?
[22:09] <soundray> !gpg | pingu
[22:09] <ubotu> pingu: gpg is the GNU Privacy Guard.  See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto and class #8 on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts
[22:09] <Slart> pingu: I don't think you can do that on regular vanilla ubuntu... there are probably something you can install to enable it though
[22:09] <screenname92834> I'll get etc/apt/sources out.
[22:09] <Slart> screenname92834: that's how I understand it
[22:09] <DIL> pingu, try PGP
[22:09] <sixstorm> what's the latest on the Intel X3100 chipset?  any users here?
[22:09] <secleinteer> http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/02/10/2011257 <-- are you guys serious?!!!!!
[22:09] <DIL> sorry soundray
[22:10] <secleinteer> how did a root exploit make it into a final release?!!!
[22:10] <simps> Is there a way to login to gnome desktop via SSH?
[22:10] <screenname92834> slart so the risk is that someone can impersonate a repo by cutting wires on the 'net somewhere? right?
[22:10] <Starnestommy> secleinteer: it was just recently discovered, I think
[22:10] <Slart> screenname92834: well.. I don't know if there is a risk.. but someone thought about it anyway.. =)
[22:10] <secleinteer> Starnestommy: it's been on /. for 47 mins now, should've been fixed already....
[22:11] <Slart> screenname92834: but that's the scenario that it's supposed to prevent I guess
[22:11] <screenname92834> slart: indeed.
[22:11] <dep> StYX: The problem is that the driver you need is called 'adpahci', and as far as I can tell it is not open source. HP seems to have released it for RHEL, but I haven't found source anywhere yet, still looking but you might be out of luck for that raid device
[22:11] <Starnestommy> secleinteer: it takes a while for new things to get packaged up.
[22:11] <screenname92834> slart: but how can I verify that I have the right key when I get it?
[22:11] <secleinteer> Starnestommy: this seems a bit urgent...
[22:11] <baal> any one installed e-uae amiga emulator on ubuntu ?
[22:11] <dmarsa> secleinteer, are you running a network?
[22:11] <Starnestommy> secleinteer: it'll still take a while
[22:12] <Slart> screenname92834: well... we could always compare keys.. then they'd have to fool us both
[22:12] <secleinteer> dmarsa: no, but i have people that have ssh axx to my box...
[22:12] <simps> Is there a way to login to gnome desktop via SSH?
[22:12] <StYX> dep: telling from the forum installation seems to work with some v6 release of ubunto. but seems they used a different raid controller then
[22:12] <secleinteer> and why is firefox being updated to <IP_ADDRESS> when there is a directory scaling exploit in it?
[22:12] <Slart> screenname92834: but basically, if someone's setup a false repo then you'd get the the false repos's key too..
[22:12] <screenname92834> slart: but it seems to me that the key only verifies that you are connected to the same repo as last time.
[22:12] <Slart> screenname92834: correct
[22:12] <screenname92834> good-oh
[22:12] <dmarsa> block ssh port. problem solved :P
[22:12] <secleinteer> screenname92834: that's what IRL gpg keysigning parties are for
[22:12] <screenname92834> now I need to look at etc/something
[22:13] <screenname92834> secleinteer: you've lost me I'm  afraid
[22:13] <Slart> screenname92834: take a look at this page.. they describe how to add the key first.. then the repo  http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[22:13] <elwo0d> hi all
[22:13] <Slart> screenname92834: that's basically how it looks on all repos I've used
[22:13] <hdevalence-> What does Buffer I/O error on device sda3, logical block 19929674 mean?
[22:13] <dimedo> does anyone know how to start gnome-terminal windows with custom window title? (--name= doesn't seem to work)
[22:13] <secleinteer> screenname92834: IRL GPG keysigning parties are used to ensure the prevention of impersonation
[22:13] <screenname92834> ok I'll look it up. Back in a mo.
[22:14] <elwo0d> when i put my hd in standby with hdparm it quickly wake up in a second..it's a known issue?
[22:14] <loa> how i can see process tree?
[22:14] <soundray> hdevalence-: bad news. Is it a hard disk?
[22:14] <Ashfire> sometimes after using my computer for awhile, my sound card will act up and aplay/speaker-test/etc will fail to play sound, with a decive busy error. (other programs appear not to be effected). restarting fixes the problem, but is there a way to fix it with the computer staying on?
[22:14] <Clinteger> how large is a normal server installation?
[22:14] <hdevalence-> soundray: yeah
[22:14] <Slart> secleinteer: but as a regular user I can't verify that the key I get from the repo webpage is the correct one..
[22:14] <secleinteer> screenname92834: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_signing_party
[22:14] <BIOSboiler_> hi
[22:14] <soundray> hdevalence-: rescue your data and distrust that disk.
[22:14] <screenname92834> whilst I'm here tho I will just say that I am so so so totally impressed with my laptop (which only cost 320 quid) and ubuntu
[22:15] <screenname92834> and all the free software you can get for it.
[22:15] <secleinteer> Slart: that's why you have to meet the person IRL and get their pgp key...
[22:15] <Siph0n> hey... did anyone hear about this? http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/02/10/2011257
[22:15] <simps> Is there a way to login to gnome desktop via SSH?
[22:15] <Siph0n> or anyone know what vmsplice is?
[22:15] <Cpudan80> simps: X tunneling?
[22:15] <simps> Cpudan80, i dunno what that means ;x
[22:15] <amenado> screenname92834-> maybe you can donate to the needy what you have saved? :)
[22:15] <Slart> Siph0n: yes.. heard about it.. it's bad I guess
[22:15] <secleinteer> Siph0n: yeah, i'm hecka pissed about it right now
[22:15] <Cpudan80> simps: ssh -X server machine
[22:15] <hdevalence-> soundray: it's a hardware problem?
[22:15] <screenname92834> and it's all free!! anything you want, download it, and it's free (and doesn't work).
[22:16] <Cpudan80> simps: ex. ssh -X <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:16] <screenname92834> amenado: I sponsor an elephant in kenya. Howzat?
[22:16] <soundray> hdevalence-: yes, until proven otherwise.
[22:16] <greentea> I need help on virtual box i recieve a error
[22:16] <elwo0d> is a bug? upgrading to hdparm hardy version will help?
[22:16] <dep> StYX: still looking through HP's notes, as a side note I dislike HP
[22:16] <amenado> simps and then gnome-session &  to get the desktop remoted to yours
[22:16] <Cpudan80> simps: That will allow you to load up applications with GUIs
[22:16] <BIOSboiler_> so if i plug in a usb device and then unplug it, where would the log for this be?
[22:16] <soundray> hdevalence-: when you've saved your data, you can experiment with S.M.A.R.T. testing etc.
[22:16] <screenname92834> anyway, I'm off to get some tea.
[22:16] <Slart> BIOSboiler_: check dmesg.. or /var/log/syslog
[22:17] <Cpudan80> simps: You may want to consider VNC over SSH
[22:17] <StYX> dep: found some notes about that driver as well. looks like closed source and available for suse and redhat only
[22:17] <greentea> I need help on virtual box i recieve a error http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55531/
[22:17] <hdevalence-> soundray: dmesg gives me a bunch of stuff about sda Result: hostbyte=DID_BAD_TARGET driverbye=DRIVER_OK,SUGGEST_OK
[22:17] <hdevalence-> and I'm hearing funny noises
[22:17] <amenado> BIOSboiler-> dmesg gets log to /var/log/messages
[22:18] <soundray> hdevalence-: better bin that disk.
[22:18] <StYX> dep: i'd do software raid but i already tried to install just on a single disk for a test. creating the root fs always freezes at 33%. so looks like using ahci only without radi is also not working realiable
[22:18] <BIOSboiler> what does dmesg stand for?
[22:18] <secleinteer> BIOSboiler: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dmesg
[22:18] <simps> Cpudan80, i'm trying to do that :P except i can't do it if it's not logged in. also, how would i use a different port because i didn't set ssh to the default port
[22:19] <Cpudan80> simps: you didnt set SSH to the default port?
[22:19] <Cpudan80> Why?
[22:19] <secleinteer> BIOSboiler: it prints the kernel ring buffer
[22:19] <Cpudan80> simps: ssh -p 1234 -X server
[22:19] <amenado> simps and you may want to add -C option to compress
[22:19] <Cpudan80> simps: You need to follow a specific set of instructions to get VNC to work without being logged in... those are at... ehhh hang on
[22:20] <Cpudan80> simps: http://www.movingtofreedom.org/2007/02/16/howto-remote-desktop-with-vnc-in-ubuntu-edgy-gnu-linux/
[22:20] <pine> setting ssh to other port than 22 is good pretection against automated login attacks
[22:20] <Cpudan80> simps: works in gutsy
[22:20] <secleinteer> ya it is
[22:20] <Ashfire908> sometimes after using my computer for awhile, my sound card will act up and aplay/speaker-test/etc will fail to play sound, with a decive busy error. (other programs appear not to be effected). restarting fixes the problem, but is there a way to fix it with the computer staying on?
[22:20] <Cpudan80> simps: except gdm is no under etc/gdm/ (instead of /etc/X11/gdm
[22:20] <dep> StYX: hmmm did you set the controller to act as JBOD before you tried to install?
[22:20] <yoluca> sudo echo server1.example.com > /etc/hostname   >>> bash: /etc/hostname: Permission denied
[22:20] <yoluca> why ?
[22:21] <pingu> how do i run a check on my external hard drive i think its failing/dieing
[22:21] <StYX> dep: does jbod means "no raid"? :) if it's "raid disabled" then yes
[22:21] <simps> Cpudan80, i shall read that article now
[22:21] <soundray> yoluca: because sudo doesn't act on the redirection. try echo server1.example.com | sudo tee /etc/hostname
[22:22] <secleinteer> StYX: jbod==just a bunch of disks
[22:22] <elwo0d> someone knows why i can't put my hd on standby mode?
[22:22] <secleinteer> no raid
[22:22] <dep> StYX: sorry, jbod = just a bunch of disks, yeah, raid disabled =) hmmm
[22:22] <secleinteer> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JBOD#Concatenation_.28JBOD_or_SPAN.29
[22:22] <pingu> how do i run a check on my external hard drive i think its failing/dieing
[22:22] <Cpudan80> simps: at the end, ssh to the server first (with -X) then do the vncviewer localhost thing
[22:23] <VanDyke> some usb enclosures allow for smart reporting, pingu
[22:23] <Slart> pingu: fsck
[22:23] <pine> fsck -t ext3 /dev/sda1
[22:23] <pine> pingu
[22:23] <hello_> slt
[22:24] <amenado> the concept of LVM, one creates the raid before putting LVM on top right?
[22:24] <soundray> pingu: look at smartmontools as well
[22:24] <Clusty> hey guys
[22:24] <Clusty> is there some fix for this bug: ?http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=464953
[22:24] <Backdraft> Yo peeps I am having issues running firefox from xterm when typing "firefox" its in /usr/local/bin/firefox
[22:24] <amenado> or raid has to use LVM ?
[22:25] <Clusty> its quite bad
[22:25] <yoluca> soundray thanks
[22:25] <Backdraft> What do I needa do to get it working so I can type "firefox" and it will work?
[22:25] <Large_o> Evening guys
[22:25] <furytho1> Hello. I have problem with Java, I can't get applications as firefox or opera to use latest version. How I do that
[22:26] <ADHDYoshi> Oh yeah, in the Update Manager
[22:26] <thiemster> ubuntu forums passed 500,000 members a minute ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[22:26] <Backdraft> furytho1 they using the plugin?
[22:26] <ikonia> thiemster: how is that relevant here - please keep on topic
[22:26] <mateusz> Does Ubuntu have ThinkFinger packages?
[22:26] <ADHDYoshi> It says that I need to upgrade the newest version of compiz-core to the newest version
[22:26] <ADHDYoshi> and when I do, it's still there >_>
[22:26] <dep> StYX: yeah, the driver for that embedded raid device is closed source and I can't find any open source projects working on it. This is likely because the driver just implements most of the raid in software and you wont get much performance gain from a driver that uses the device
[22:26] <pingu> what does this mean There are differences between boot sector and its backup.
[22:26] <pingu> Differences: (offset:original/backup)
[22:26] <Chri2> I think this is the right place to ask, i've just tried installing ubuntu, and when i try to boot from Hard disk, i get an error message "GRUB Error 18" 1. Is it possible to fix? 2. If not, how do i remove GRUB?
[22:26] <Stevethepirate> Anyone know how to make a pc with ssh accept connections, using ssh, that tunnel through a proxy?
[22:26] <amenado> Backdraft-> what happens when you do type that full path on the xterm?
[22:26] <bin_d> i installed ubuntu and then vista. i lost the bootloader, so i ran sudo grub via a ubuntu live cd. i used: root (hd0,0) and setup (hd0). now i lost vista. how do i add them to the bootloader menu? (vista?).
[22:26] <furytho1> Backdraft I did download latest version from Sun website, and followed instrctions, now applications just do not see it...
[22:27] <StYX> dep: i've used win on this server before. disk i/o is a pain anyway on that box :)
[22:27] <Backdraft> Anemado it works
[22:27] <Slart> pingu: I think ext2, extx3 keeps a backup of the boot sector somewhere else on the drive.. they should be the same.. if they are not.. something has changed one of them.. it's usually bad
[22:27] <StYX> dep: i'll try to get it to work with a linux software raid then
[22:27] <Backdraft> Furttho1 you needa install the plugin into firefox/opera then it will start working
[22:27] <pingu> Slart, it a NTFS disk
[22:27] <Stevethepirate> Anyone know how to make a pc with ssh accept connections, using ssh, that tunnel through a proxy?
[22:27] <amenado> Backdraft-> so what was the issue?
[22:27] <furytho1> how I do that ?
[22:27] <Slart> pingu: perhaps ntfs does the same
[22:27] <Backdraft> I wanna be lazy and type firefox
[22:27] <dep> StYX: sounds good, best of luck
[22:27] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: ssh listens on the same port - it doesn't care what incoming connections come from
[22:27] <thiemster> ikonia: sorry, i just thought it was a really big deal
[22:28] <Backdraft> Like I can do on openbsd and freebsd
[22:28] <ikonia> thiemster: not really
[22:28] <pingu> Slart, should I copy the original to the back up or the other way around?
[22:28] <anon2871> hey
[22:28] <Micheru> Hello all. I want to make a startup script, But I have never done it before. The command i want to run is "x11vnc -display :0 -rfbport 5907 -repeat -forever -nobell -xrandr -shared -cursor most  -alwaysshared -bg". How would i do this?
[22:28] <Flannel> mateusz: check thinkwiki for all details
[22:28] <StYX> dep: many thanks for your help
[22:28] <Lord> oi
[22:28] <amenado> Backdraft-> ahh you put that first in the $PATH
[22:28] <Stevethepirate> ikonia: Well, i basically need to make ssh act as a proxy.
[22:28] <pine> Chri2, grub is the boot loader, u need it to boot, dont remove it
[22:28] <bin_d> i installed ubuntu and then vista. i lost the bootloader, so i ran sudo grub via a ubuntu live cd. i used: root (hd0,0) and setup (hd0). now i lost vista. how do i add them to the bootloader menu? (vista?).
[22:28] <Slart> pingu: I have no idea.. which one do you think is broken? =)
[22:28] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: ok - thats different,  you need to do ssh tunneling
[22:28] <soundray> Micheru: add it to /etc/rc.local
[22:28] <bin_d> how can i find the name of the partition i installed vista?
[22:28] <dmarsa> bin_d you need to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:28] <visualdeception> furytho1: http://ubuntuforums.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=53648&stc=1&d=1198033466
[22:28] <Stevethepirate> ikonia: Exactly.
[22:28] <NineTails> sup?
[22:28] <Backdraft> export PATH???
[22:28] <Slart> pingu: look here .. some info about this http://bootmaster.filerecovery.biz/appnote3.html
[22:28] <bin_d> dmarsa, how can i find the name of the partition?
[22:28] <pingu> Slart, i have no idea I don't untherstand it very well
[22:28] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: there is a guide on help.ubuntu.com
[22:29] <bin_d> i am already editing menu.lst .
[22:29] <anon2871> can anyone here tell me how to change the default media player ? I've gone through the preferred applications but for whatever reasoning it isn't detecting I'm running amarok
[22:29] <NineTails> out of interest
[22:29] <GLORY> is this the ubuntu help channel?
[22:29] <Micheru> soundray: how? i don't know the syntax, or is it just a text file with the command in it?
[22:29] <ikonia> GLORY: sure
[22:29] <Backdraft> GLORY thats what I hear
[22:29] <pine> Chri2, when i have installation problems I usally try another inst cd, burn another one, form diff mirror
[22:29] <amenado> Backdraft-> yeah..have that path to firefox as the 1st in order of search
[22:29] <Stevethepirate> ikonia: Unfortunately. I am capped. I can't access the internet. Without this tunnel :(
[22:29] <GLORY> heh, i'm new to all this and i just need help w/ stuff
[22:29] <Seven_Six_Two> what is the correct directory to place a ".o" input module?
[22:29] <Backdraft> amenado cool
[22:29] <pine> Chri2, And let it install grub for you
[22:29] <screenname92834> I'm back
[22:29] <Slart> pingu: can't say I do either.. but a boot sector isn't that hard to replace.. even if it's broken
[22:29] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: how are you accessing this channel then
[22:29] <soundray> Micheru: have a look at that file. It should be obvious what to do. You may have to add a & at the end of your command
[22:29] <screenname92834> let's all celebrate
[22:29] <AHemlocksLie> I'm trying to install my graphics card's drivers through the command line, but I can't remember how to anymore. Does anyone remember the command(s) to run the .run file?
[22:29] <bin_d> how can i find the name of the partition i installed vista?
[22:29] <screenname92834> I see what a keysigning party is anyway.
[22:29] <dmarsa> bin_d you don't need it... according to mine anyway. just title vista, root (hd0,0), savedefault, makeactive, chainloader +1
[22:30] <dep> GLORY: just describe your problem in detail and we'll help you
[22:30] <Stevethepirate> I have access to a local server, which has access to the internet on all non port 80 ports.
[22:30] <dmarsa> hmmmmm
[22:30] <dmarsa> oh
[22:30] <screenname92834> you don't really need 'parties' however.
[22:30] <Micheru> soundray: ah its a file not a path, thanks
[22:30] <visualdeception> AHemlocksLie: ./file.run
[22:30] <bin_d> dmarsa, hd0,0 is linux
[22:30] <bin_d> or not?
[22:30] <dmarsa> i see that
[22:30] <dmarsa> it is
[22:30] <AHemlocksLie> visualdeception: thanks
[22:30] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: your tunnel will still need access to a box that has connection to the internet on port 80 so tha tyou forward say port 123 on your box to 80 on the other
[22:30] <visualdeception> AHemlocksLie: but you need to right click on it and select properties to make sure you can run it
[22:30] <dmarsa> my partitioning is different
[22:30] <dmarsa> sorry
[22:30] <dmarsa> well
[22:30] <screenname92834> the principle is that presence A will verify that B's key is b, so if you are SURE you have A's key, and trust him,
[22:30] <dmarsa> is your hdd sata?
[22:30] <bin_d> np
[22:31] <bin_d> i think
[22:31] <screenname92834> then you have B's key b as well
[22:31] <GLORY> well i had it where i had somewhat of desktop effects, and now once i try the med the desktop effects cannont be enabled
[22:31] <screenname92834> so I expect you can get a bunch of keys off B as well etc.
[22:31] <pine> ubuntu users ! If ya want a great dc++ client  !!!!!
[22:31] <dover19> is there a way to "move" the display to the left, right, up or down?
[22:31] <GLORY> i believe it's from after all the updates it told me to download...
[22:31] <ikonia> pine: we don't
[22:31] <dmarsa> it's irrelevant actually
[22:31] <pine> search for linuxdcpp
[22:31] <Stevethepirate> ikonia: I can, in links on this box, set the proxy of it to like, <IP_ADDRESS>:553, which is a free and anonymous proxy.
[22:31] <soundray> Micheru: have you read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/x11vnc ?
[22:31] <pine> in synaptic
[22:31] <screenname92834> anyway, here is a basic question for you
[22:31] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: use that proxy with firefox
[22:31] <screenname92834> don't all shout at once.
[22:32] <ikonia> pine we know about that client thanks
[22:32] <Micheru> soundray: no why?
[22:32] <Stevethepirate> ikonia: It won't let me.
[22:32] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: what won't
[22:32] <pine> well so u speak for everyone, no u dont
[22:32] <pine> do
[22:32] <soundray> Micheru: if you had, you might not have had to ask that question.
[22:32] <dmarsa> bin_d, what i meant is you installed on one hdd right? and you created a swap partition and just a root (/) partition?
[22:32] <screenname92834> Does ubuntu put a whole load of system files in /etc in a way that you can see, whereas  windows hides such system files
[22:32] <ikonia> pine: no one has asked for a client - so just spouting stuff randomly in the channel is of no help
[22:32] <Stevethepirate> The firewall checks to see what IP is connecting to it, this server I am on can use external proxies, I cannot.
[22:32] <furytho1> so who can help me with that Java problem ?
[22:33] <dep> GLORY: What version of Ubuntu are you running? Also, does the error give any more information?
[22:33] <amenado> furytho1-> what is the issue?
[22:33] <bin_d> dmarsa, i created 2 partitions. 1 for linux 1 for vista
[22:33] <screenname92834> To put that another way, if you alter files in /etc are you going to f*** your ubuntu system?
[22:33] <nickrud> screenname92834: yes, very much so. You can see all the files, and locations thereof, with dpkg -L packagename
[22:33] <pine> jesus, go tell your mom or something
[22:33] <bin_d> i installed ubuntu and then vista
[22:33] <visualdeception> furytho1: http://linux.dudenhofer.net/wordpress/?p=6
[22:33] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: then I suggest you contact yous ISP, I'm not going to help you bypass our isp
[22:33] <guci22> join #ubuntu
[22:33] <GLORY> how's come when i put on XGL i can't login?
[22:33] <nickrud> screenname92834: always recoverable
[22:33] <ikonia> pine: just respect the channels rules
[22:33] <Ashfire908> is there a program that can resume sftp downloads? (besides gFTP, that downloads really slow.)
[22:33] <Micheru> soundray: i simply didn't think of it, and i was already on freenode.
[22:33] <guci22> i need help with virtualbox addins
[22:33] <Stevethepirate> ikonia: Its not an ISP, its my university network.
[22:33] <furytho1> I can't get java to work on either opera or firefox, i get error that I need later version than I currently have
[22:33] <guci22> can anybody help
[22:33] <dmarsa> yes bin_d but did you let ubuntu automatically partition for you?
[22:33] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: ok, I'm not going to help you bypass your uni network
[22:33] <dmarsa> during the install
[22:33] <sebrock> is it possible to use 'dump' or 'tar' to backup a mounted filesystem, also run the command from this filesystem?
[22:33] <nickrud> !asj guci22
[22:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about asj guci22 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[22:33] <amenado> furytho1-> what is the exact error?
[22:33] <bin_d> dmarsa, no, i created a /root partition
[22:33] <nickrud> !ask | guci22
[22:33] <ubotu> guci22: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[22:33] <Stevethepirate> I would normally use 2 tinyproxies, but I cannot at the moment
[22:34] <RoboCop> where can i find pcre.h . what package has it?
[22:34] <davied101> is there any working software like iTunes in linux?
[22:34] <Seven_Six_Two> I'm trying to install a tablet driver for X under 7.04 and the instructions say to put the newly compiled module in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input/ or whatever the correct path is for your distro. is there a different correct path for ubuntu?
[22:34] <Stevethepirate> ikonia: Its not like that. This PC i _can_ use on upper campus.
[22:34] <dmarsa> bin_d, you also created a swap partition, correct?
[22:34] <nickrud> !find pcre.h | RoboCop
[22:34] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: so use it
[22:34] <Slart> davied101: amarok has some of the features itunes has
[22:34] <Stevethepirate> Its just I don't want to walk up there.
[22:34] <bin_d> dmarsa, i think, yes
[22:34] <GLORY> when i download server-xgl from sypnatic package manager, how's come i can't login?
[22:34] <visualdeception> RoboCop: in terminal type whereis pcre.h
[22:34] <ubotu> robocop: File pcre.h found in caudium, kannel-dev, libpcre3-dev, libsfs0c2-dev, php5-dev (and 2 others)
[22:34] <Stevethepirate> Its like.. 2 km's away.
[22:34] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: I'm not helping you bypass the uni
[22:34] <screenname92834> is the /etc directory anything like the registry in windows?
[22:34] <GLORY> anyone?
[22:34] <Stevethepirate> ikonia: Fine.
[22:34] <dmarsa> well bin_d, my best guess is hd0,2
[22:34] <Stevethepirate> Whatever.
[22:34] <Slart> screenname92834: kind of.
[22:35] <pine> some moderators think they are gods or something
[22:35] <Slart> screenname92834: it's a folder where almost all applications keep their settings.. including system stuff
[22:35] <bin_d> hmmm
[22:35] <soundray> screenname92834: not at all. It's a directory containing mostly plain text configuration files.
[22:35] <GLORY> oh
[22:35] <nickrud> screenname92834: no, it's easily readable and alterable
[22:35] <GLORY> dep how do i check
[22:35] <dover19> has anyone ever had any "screen resolution" issues
[22:35] <screenname92834> why don't they hide this directory /etc so it doesn't confuse people like me?
[22:35] <dmarsa> if you do have a sata drive you can 'ls -l /dev/sd*' and see what partitions are there.
[22:35] <Slart> pine: do you have a question about ubuntu?
[22:35] <GLORY> dep it's one of the new one's that i know of..
[22:35] <nickrud> screenname92834: you can
[22:35] <dmarsa> otherwise 'ls -l /dev/hd*' for an ide drive
[22:35] <ikonia> Slart: no - he just randomly spouts stuff.
[22:35] <Slart> screenname92834: hide it? why.. what did you do? delete it? =)
[22:35] <amenado> screenname92834-> just get yourself not to be confused
[22:35] <pine> no im here to help people, so stop acting like you are someone
[22:35] <screenname92834> I mean, I'd be inclined to delete /etc because it's beyond me.
[22:35] <furytho1> amenado I did put taht error to private message.
[22:35] <anon2871> can anyone tell me how I can make amarok my default app for downloads through firefox ?
[22:36] <nickrud> 't write there by accident, and it's visible so you can see what is configured. A feature :)
[22:36] <dep> GLORY: go to the System menu, then click on "About Ubuntu" for the version
[22:36] <soundray> pine: I can't see you helping anyone -- just spouting offtopic stuff.
[22:36] <amenado> furytho1-> no private messages...use the pastebin
[22:36] <GLORY> Thank you for your interest in Ubuntu 7.10
[22:36] <GLORY>                 - the Gutsy Gibbon - released in October 2007. dep
[22:36] <GLORY> i have gnome on here also.. is that a problem? idk
[22:36]  * nickrud has always though ikonia and soundray were someones ;)
[22:36] <screenname92834> so how do you hide it?
[22:36] <ikonia> nickrud: your wrong ;)
[22:37] <pine> well i need to defend my self against bashing mods, .
[22:37] <amenado> screenname92834-> are you serious? want to experiment?
[22:37] <Slart> pine: huh? was that directed to me?
[22:37] <hdevalence-> screenname92834: just do all your stuff in /home/username
[22:37] <nickrud> screenname92834: you don't need to look there
[22:37] <CarlFK> I need something like a graphic EQ or graphic level indicator so I can visually tell the difference between noise and silence (or mostly silent- sound card has a faint hum and a bit of crackle
[22:37] <soundray> nickrud: actually, I'm anyone.
[22:37] <dep> GLORY: gnome is the desktop environment, it provides the menus and visual desktop you see. Ok, so you tried to install xserver-xgl and things stopped working, right?
[22:37] <nalioth> if it's not ubuntu support talk, it doesn't belong here.  #ubuntu-offtopic exists for non-support discussions
[22:37] <greentea> How do i get compiz fusion and update verison gt ????
[22:37] <Slart> screenname92834: as a regular user you can't delete /etc.. afaik
[22:37] <ikonia> pine it's a busy channel, just try to keep it to answer questiongs, not spounting random stuff
[22:37] <GLORY> correct dep
[22:37] <nickrud> screenname92834: anymore than you need to look at what's in /Program Files
[22:37] <guci22> I am using virtualbox and I am trying to install the virtualbox addons. when I run the ".run" file it says I don't have admin privileges. When I installed ubuntu I put my current user/pass as the admin account. How do I install the addons?
[22:38] <Micheru> ikonia: he's gone
[22:38] <screenname92834> just experimenting really. I do think they could've called /etc something sensible like /system
[22:38] <ikonia> Micheru: missed that
[22:38] <ikonia> Micheru: thank you
[22:38] <Slart> screenname92834: no amount of hiding stuff will keep people from trashing their computer when they use sudo.. that's kind of the point =)
[22:38]  * guci22 is mad
[22:38] <ahave> could someone help me with compiling and inserting drivers with ubuntu? http://rtl-wifi.sourceforge.net/wiki/Installing#Debian.2FUbuntu

[22:39] <yoluca> how do i run the nvidia setup from terminal ?
[22:39] <LiENUS> hooray for ubuntu lts
[22:39] <ikonia> yoluca: you don't
[22:39] <sebrock> if I tar backup my whoel filesystem, does it matter if its mounted or not?
[22:39] <ikonia> yoluca: use the nvidia-glx package
[22:39] <LiENUS> no vmsplice to exploit :D
[22:39] <dover19> does ubuntu have issues with lcd monitors, or maybe certain brands?
[22:39] <Seveas> !offtopic | LiENUS
[22:39] <j_> How do i get compiz fusion and update verison gt ????
[22:39] <ubotu> LiENUS: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[22:39] <guci22> could someone help me with virtualbox addons (i am running ubuntu in windows vista)
[22:39] <Slart> screenname92834: I think those folder names are really old.. from before regular people used computers... google for linux folder hierarchy or sometihng similar.. lots of nice info on that
[22:39] <furytho1> I did already follow link which leads to http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

[22:39] <csc`> is it possible to override the 'System Partition needs to be formatted' in the installer?
[22:39] <yoluca> i need to ikonia ... x failed to start ... im in ternimal ONLY
[22:39] <soundray> dover19: no
[22:39] <hdevalence-> screenname92834: if you want, you can look up something called the Filesystem Heirarchy Standard; it has the reasons behind what goes in /etc, what goes in /var, what goes in /usr ,etc etc
[22:39] <Seveas> furytho1, apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[22:39] <screenname92834> slart: good idea.
[22:39] <LiENUS> Seveas, ubuntu lts is offtopic?
[22:39] <ikonia> yoluca: you don't need to
[22:39] <nickrud> guci22: it would be   sudo /path/to/runfile
[22:39] <ikonia> yoluca: what card do you have
[22:40] <Slart> dover19: not that I know of.. ubuntu can be tricky to setup properly when using X.. if that's what you mean
[22:40] <Seveas> LiENUS, vmsplice attacks are.
[22:40] <j_> seveas is it this kind http://youtube.com/watch?v=g2U0V0RvCLM
[22:40] <screenname92834> hdevalence-: I'll put it on my list of things to do.
[22:40] <dep> GLORY: ok, possibly insulting question, but I need to know: did you restart your machine yet?
[22:40] <yoluca> ikonia, nvidia 7900
[22:40] <kane77> why isn't icecat/iceweasel in repositories?
[22:40] <LiENUS> Seveas, security is offtopic?
[22:40] <LiENUS> wow thats scary
[22:40] <GLORY> multiple times dep
[22:40] <dover19> soundray: any idea why my display would be too much to the right? basically, on the left side of my monitor theres a vertical black line thats about....1o pixels wide i guess
[22:40] <guci22> nickrud: what if it is on a cd
[22:40] <ikonia> yoluca: isn't that covered by the nvidia-glx-new package
[22:40] <GLORY> usually after every time i install something.. dep
[22:40] <tass1412> i think i got an ugly problem... compiz is loaded, but no animations take place (i know it's loaded because i set some other hotkeys in compiz than in metacity, and these work)
[22:40] <dover19> so my display starts too far to the right
[22:40] <yoluca> ikonia, i need to reconfigure x...something like dpkg nvidia-reconfig
[22:40] <dep> GLORY: k thanks. But the login screen comes up, and you can't login?
[22:40] <ikonia> yoluca: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[22:40] <Slart> dover19: can't you adjust that on the monitor itself? auto button?
[22:40] <nickrud> guci22: same thing, the cdrom has a path. Most likely /media/cdrom/runfile
[22:40] <Seveas> LiENUS, this is a support channel. Discussing root exploits isn't support
[22:40] <GLORY> yes.. i try to log in and it wont let me..
[22:41] <dover19> doesnt seam to do anything
[22:41] <amenado> dover19-> then adjust your lcd,
[22:41] <yoluca> ikonia, it is ... i have that installed already ... i need to REconfigure it
[22:41] <GLORY> i ahve to go into the other version and uninstall it dep..
[22:41] <ikonia> yoluca: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[22:41] <GLORY> then i get back into here...
[22:41] <dep> GLORY: what does it say specifically? Bad password?
[22:41] <GLORY> no... it doesn't say anything.. just goes back to the login screen
[22:41] <AHemlocksLie> Something's way off. The left like 3 inches on my monitor aren't being used. It's not off center, it's just pretending that part doesn't exist, so my widescreen resolution is crammed into what I'm guessing is a normal resolution area
[22:41] <dep> GLORY: ok, thanks, gimme a second to look into something
[22:41] <AHemlocksLie> anyone know what might cause that?
[22:41] <yoluca> ikonia, inst there a command for nvidia-glx ?
[22:41] <LiENUS> Seveas, sounds like a narrow definition of support i didnt ask how to run a root exploit
[22:42] <ikonia> yoluca: I've just told you 2 times
[22:42] <guci22> how do I run terminal?
[22:42] <furytho1> so what I need to do get that java plugin to work ?
[22:42] <ikonia> LiENUS: why are you arguing
[22:42] <yoluca> ikonia, ok
[22:42] <ikonia> LiENUS: just get on with support
[22:42] <Slart> !res | AHemlocksLie, look here

[22:42] <LiENUS> Seveas, please follow your own rules
[22:42] <yoluca> ikonia, there is one in debian ...thats why i asked for it
[22:42] <ikonia> yoluca: installthe nvidia-glx-new package and then "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" selecting the nvidia driver
[22:42] <guci22> how do I run terminal?
[22:42] <AHemlocksLie> Slart: It's not just that my resolution's messed up. That'd just make things look funny. It's pretending part of my monitor doesn't exist
[22:42] <norty> I have a question, im trying to share files between unbuntu 7.10 and windows xp, I can see both computers but when i try to copy files from the xp box to the ubuntu box it asks for a password, i put in the password i use to login to th windows xp computer but that doesn't work.. any ideas?
[22:43] <AHemlocksLie> there's a 3 inch black space on the left
[22:43] <nickrud> guci22: apps->accesories->terminal
[22:43] <Seveas> guci22, applications -> accessories -> terminal
[22:43] <Slart> AHemlocksLie: I just figured the modeline might be off or something..
[22:43] <Cromag> norty: maybe samba is the place for you to look
[22:43] <Carbonflux> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/190587
[22:43] <AHemlocksLie> slart: I'll try it, I guess, but I'm not so sure it'll help
[22:43] <Carbonflux> Local root exploit in kernel 2.6.17 - 2.6.24 (vmsplice)
[22:43] <Carbonflux> this looks kind of bad ^
[22:44] <soundray> dover19: go through 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and try different settings in the monitor section. Ideally, find out the hsync and vrefresh rates of your LCD and set those directly (Advanced option)
[22:44] <Slart> AHemlocksLie: what brand is the monitor? model?
[22:44] <dep> GLORY: ok, please open a terminal (command line) and enter this command: 'cat /var/log/messages | grep Fatal' and tell me if there is any output
[22:44] <yoluca> ikonia, yeah got it .... in debian there was no need to run dpkg and select the nvidia driver ... there was a nvidia command which did everything for you ... thanks
[22:44] <LiENUS> Seveas, once again please follow your rules, this is a support chatroom

[22:44] <screenname92834> right here we are then: /etc/apt/source.list contains five items
[22:44] <AHemlocksLie> slart: Uh... it's a ViewSonic 19" widescreen, I think
[22:45] <GLORY> none dep
[22:45] <Slart> screenname92834: ok.. you can skip the regular ubuntu servers.. are there anything else? wine? screenlets?
[22:45] <AHemlocksLie> slart: Not so sure on the size anymore, but I Dunno the model. I got it working just fine on 7.04, so I dunno what the problem is
[22:45] <GLORY> dep, put it in just like this? cat /var/log/messages | grep Fatal
[22:45] <screenname92834> yes here we are: apt.tt-solutions.com/ubuntu/ dapper main
[22:45] <GLORY> ya.. doesn't hav any output
[22:45] <yoluca> ikonia, right .. there is something wrong ... soon the coonfig of xserver-xorg starts the system freeze ... i restarted and now same again ... any idea what can it be ?
[22:45] <csc`> is it possible to override the 'System Partition needs to be formatted' in the installer?
[22:45] <Slart> AHemlocksLie: sounds regular enough... uubuntu autodetect it?
[22:45] <visualdensity> Hi, I've recently installed munin and the uninstalled it via apt-get, but my shutdown and boot sequence shows that Ubuntu is still trying to start the process (but fail, naturally). How do I remove munin from the boot-up process? I'm on Ubuntu 7.10. Thank you.
[22:45] <screenname92834> I've no idea what that is
[22:46] <dep> GLORY: yes, that looks through all of the file messages and looks for anything that has the word 'Fatal' in it
[22:46] <ikonia> yoluca: no idea, things freezing is most commonly bad ram. you may want to reboot to make sure the nvidia module is loaded
[22:46] <nickrud> visualdeception: sudo apt-get remove --purge munin
[22:46] <Slart> screenname92834: dapper? what version of ubuntu are you running?
[22:46] <sebrock> please anyone? any danger to backup a mounted filesystem?
[22:46] <Slart> !dapper
[22:46] <ubotu> Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (Dapper Drake) was the fourth release of Ubuntu. See !lts for more details.
[22:46] <screenname92834> dapper actually
[22:46] <GLORY> ok...
[22:46] <ikonia> sebrock: no
[22:46] <AHemlocksLie> slart: I think I chose autodetect when I configured xorg or whatever it's called, yeah
[22:46] <guci22> Thank you very much nickrud
[22:46] <ikonia> sebrock: don't backup /dev /proc
[22:46] <yoluca> ikonia, yeah ok i see what i can do , thanks
[22:46] <nickrud> visualdeception: the standard remove leaves the config files in /etc , adding the --purge removes them
[22:46] <Slart> screenname92834: hmm.. let me check that one.. brb
[22:47] <sebrock> ikonia: how does it differ from partimage. That supposedly is not very safe on a mounted system?
[22:47] <screenname92834> I was going to upgrade to feisty but it said on the website 'do not try to upgrade from dapper to
[22:47] <ikonia> sebrock: tar is just an archive, - no idea what partimage is, I assume it's a partition image
[22:47] <screenname92834> feisty because it will screw your system!
[22:47] <screenname92834> so I didn't
[22:47] <j_> if i running ubuntu 7.10 do i need to install X Server? xgl or aiglx in order to run Composite Manager?
[22:47] <screenname92834> I'll get hardy when it's released in April
[22:47] <nickrud> screenname92834: correct, you would have to upgrade to edgy, then feisty
[22:47] <Slart> screenname92834: hmm.. some python styff.. wxtools.. recognize it?
[22:47] <sebrock> ikonia: yes
[22:48] <Seveas> !info partimage | ikonia

[22:48] <Seveas> :)
[22:48] <screenname92834> possibly I have used some wx stuff
[22:48] <j_> so i have to choose either xgl or aiglx?
[22:48] <sebrock> ikonia: how about dump then? which do you recommend?
[22:48] <ikonia> j_: ubuntu is running the desktop - so it's running the x server and compiz already
[22:48] <rinaldi_> hi all, im trying to connect to my shring desktop through the network but my IP changes sometimes when I reboot. Is there a way to set a fixed ip for the computer?
[22:48] <ikonia> sebrock: ta
[22:48] <sebrock> alright thanks
