[15:25] <shishirm1> freeloader is too plain.. i tried some probs with it too.. starts downloading into tmp folder if i restart by mistake the download goes waste
[15:26] <slowlearner> lartza_ I suggest you go to their support page
[15:26] <gregory> hansjd: only until the first space - after "-" is package description and not name anymore
[15:26] <itguru> I have an internal email server which has been setup, but it seems that mail delivered from this system gets classed as SPAM with google. I have a static IP, if I add this IP to our DNS, will this then prevent our mail being classed as spam?

[15:26] <arvind_khadri> shishirm1, try dx4

[15:26] <efirewick> Hello, I am new to php, and was wondering if there are any pre-made database sources available for download.
[15:27] <Sturmeh> harsh1 do you have a home network?
[15:27] <jrib> daire: 7.04 stays 7.04 unless you tell it you want to upgrade to a newer version explicitly
[15:27] <Pici> daire: Its just updating applications and perhaps the kernel, but only within your release.
[15:27] <harsh1> Sturmeh: No
[15:27] <gregory> efirewick: try #php
[15:27] <hansjd> gregory, i just get this...
[15:27] <hansjd> hansjd@hansjd-ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get linux-headers-2.6.24-12-generic
[15:27] <hansjd> E: Invalid operation linux-headers-2.6.24-12-generic
[15:27] <shishirm1> arvind_khadri: does it have a site or something?
[15:27] <efirewick> gregory: thanks
[15:27] <Jack_Sparrow> hansjd, apt-get install
[15:27] <shishirm1> arvind_khadri: i wanna see it first b4 i try it
[15:27] <arvind_khadri> shishirm1, nope i dont know jus apt-get it
[15:28] <Jizzo> so you need to redownload the install CD if you wanna upgrade from 7.10 to 8.xx in 10 days?
[15:28] <Sturmeh> harsh1 check your isp usage and make sure you haven't been using "alot" or anything, it's probably local throughput.
[15:28] <hansjd> ah... stupid me... kinda new to ubuntu
[15:28] <shishirm1> arvind_khadri: cant play with my ubuntu installation its got some project stuff
[15:28] <hansjd> or linux

[15:28] <daire> jrib/pici: ty, i will look into updating to a new version, i wasn't able to download and burn a fresh cd

[15:29] <stjepan> anyone knows, how can I limit my network speed?
[15:29] <gullstad> Hello. How can I create a user whit limited disc-space?
[15:29] <harsh1> Sturmeh: No, none of the programs that uses Internet like Torrent clients etc are running.
[15:29] <efirewick> gregory: Are you talking about the chat room #php?
[15:29] <slowlearner> efirewick what are you actually looking for?
[15:30] <Sturmeh> harsh1 disconnect your internet cables for a moment and see if the activity stops, and if anything produces an error etc.
[15:30] <Sturmeh> harsh1 and then come back ofcause
[15:30] <gregory> gullstad: you need to use "diskquota". have a first look here f.e. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=453358
[15:30] <harsh1> Sturmeh: ok, but one question before disconnecting.
[15:31] <Sturmeh> as many as you like harsh1
[15:31] <ishbibenob> cam someone tell me how to extract a tar.gz file as root
[15:31] <slowlearner> sudo tar -zxvf file.tar.gz

[15:32] <harsh1> Sturmeh: What information will be displayed in the System Monitor->Resources(Tab)->Network History->(Received, sent)?
[15:32] <leeping2008> Hey there .. At my job, I usually have many emacs windows open, and I wish the buttons on the taskbar would actually display the text file that emacs is editing.  Anyone know how to do this?
[15:32] <Morydd> when running apt I'm getting "E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/http could not be found."
[15:32] <Morydd> there is nothing at all in /usr/lib/apt/methods/
[15:33] <slowlearner> harsh1, if you click you can see for yourself
[15:33] <Sturmeh> google the error Morydd refrain from repeating it here
[15:33] <Sturmeh> harsh1 not sure what you mean, it logs network activity.
[15:33] <crazytalk_> /who crazytalk_
[15:34] <riotkittie> we're telling people to google now?
[15:34] <crazytalk_> :O
[15:34] <Sturmeh> u google errors
[15:34] <Sturmeh> it's very unlikely someone in here has encountered the same error message and remembers it
[15:34] <Sturmeh> if they have they would have said it already
[15:34] <Morydd> Sturmeh: I have googled the error and did not find information that helped, hence asking here. And since I did not get a response I thought it may have gotten lost in the backscroll.
[15:34] <zacccisco> ciao
[15:34] <harsh1> Sturmeh: I was asking this question because this is the place where it is showing Sent=317 Kb/s and received=117 kb/s, is this normal?

[15:35] <gregory> leeping2008: hmm, emacs is not in ubuntu default, before having to wait here for a longer time try #emacs
[15:35] <Sturmeh> can someone confirm what harsh1 is asking, I am not currently on ubuntu
[15:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Morydd, HAve you added your own sources?
[15:35] <Blinny> I'm running an updated Hardy Beta right now, with 8GB RAM. Unfortunately, after a recent kernel update (to 2.6.24-16-generic) my kernel is only seeing 3GB. I had understood that Ubuntu was no longer separating 32 and 64-bit kernels, hence the -generic. What do I need to fix so that I boot into the 64-bit kernel?
[15:35] <Pici> Blinny: Please join #ubuntu+1 for Hardy/8.04 support/discussion.
[15:35] <spelling> what are the green/blue distros other than suse/fedora
[15:35] <amenado> harsh1-> are you downloading or transferring files at the moment? or maybe streaming videos ?
[15:35] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardy > Blinny
[15:35] <Blinny> Cool. Thanks folks.
[15:35] <Sturmeh> Morydd hope you find a solution, i find ubuntu forums very helpful.
[15:36] <Morydd> Jack_Sparrow: only restricted/universe/multiverse
[15:36] <spelling> what are the green/blue distros other than suse/fedora
[15:36] <slowlearner> harsh1 thats normal
[15:36] <leeping2008> Thanks, gregory
[15:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Morydd, what is the command you are giving that generates that error
[15:36] <Pici> spelling: I dont know what you are asking, but it sounds like it has nothing to do with Ubuntu.
[15:36] <Pici> spelling: Perhaps try ##linux
[15:37] <harsh1> amenado: No, this is the scenario that happens everytime and no windows are opened in any of my 4 Desktops.
[15:37] <Morydd> Jack_Sparrow: apt-get update
[15:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Morydd, please run this for me..  sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[15:38] <macusercanada> hi all - I need help - I had edubuntu running on an old clamshell iBook - I installed the beta of full ubuntu 8.04 last night and now I have no mouse movement either by USB mouse or the trackpad - any ideas?
[15:38] <Sturmeh> spelling what are you asking?
[15:38] <spelling> Pici haha your distro is a yellow
[15:38] <spelling> Sturme i need a distro with green or blue theme
[15:38] <welshdude> Very stupid question, I have a 2nd hard drive with all my important stuff stored on it, when after I install Ubuntu, will it have no probems reading the files on it as it was orignaly formated by windows. i think thats fat32 by defult
[15:38] <slowlearner> harsh1 it's telling you that you are currently connected to a network because you are transferring and receiving data
[15:38] <spelling> as default
[15:38] <twoface_> welshdude: no problem
[15:38] <slowlearner> spelling fedore
[15:38] <amenado> harsh1-> then I say its not normal to have 300+ kb/s
[15:38] <Jack_Sparrow> welshdude, not a problem
[15:38] <welshdude> thanks
[15:39] <slowlearner> spelling fedora is blue by default
[15:39] <spelling> slowlearner what else
[15:39] <jochmenDS> you can make it look any colour you want themes gnome
[15:39] <amenado> harsh1-> try to use    lsof -i   to show what sockets you have opened
[15:39] <Morydd> Jack_Sparrow: http://pastoid.com/ha
[15:39] <Jack_Sparrow> macusercanada, Please ask in #Ubuntu+1
[15:39] <slowlearner> spelling kubuntu i think is blue too
[15:39] <macusercanada> thanks
[15:40] <spelling> slowlearner hate kubuntu
[15:40] <jochmenDS> or black theme
[15:40] <Pici> spelling, slowlearner: Please take this discussion elsewhere, it has nothing to do with Ubuntu, perhaps #ubuntu-offtopic or ##linux if they tolerate it there.
[15:40] <sint> hey, i got an intel 3945 card and i tried ipw3945 as well as iwl driver and i can't get anything to work. it shows a connection with ifconfig but i can't ping anything. anyone have an idea?

[15:40] <harsh1> amenado: I did it, shall I post the output, its 2 or 3 line?
[15:40] <hischild> sint, your target is refusing ping?
[15:40] <amenado> sint-> is your client associated with the AP? it has an ip address?
[15:41] <sint> amenado: ya ifconfig shows an ipadress
[15:41] <amenado> harsh1-> nope, you try to figure it out ifyou do have that connectivity, i dont know what you got running
[15:41] <amenado> sint-> is your client associated with the AP?
[15:41] <sint> hischild: how do you mean refusing? all packages are lost
[15:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Morydd, nothing jumps out at me there.  have you edited out sources you have used in the past..
[15:42] <hischild> sint, what are you trying to ping?
[15:42] <sint> amenado: how to find out?
[15:42] <sint> hischild: my APs ip
[15:42] <sint> or google
[15:42] <sint> both not working
[15:42] <amenado> sint iwconfig wlan0
[15:42] <Morydd> Jack_Sparrow: no. I'm just getting used to ubuntu from debian, so I haven't started experimenting yet. :)
[15:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Morydd, what have you installed manually?
[15:44] <hischild> sint, can you access internet at all? like the AP's site? does your AP block pings?
[15:44]  * tovare finally just purchased an external harddrive instead of trying to get Microsoft SQL to write to a samba share.
[15:45] <Morydd> Jack_Sparrow: several things from .deb files.
[15:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Morydd, was this a feisty install you upgraded to gutsy?
[15:45] <harsh1> amenado: ok, only one command is being displayed below "Command" column and its "Pidgin", its the program that I am using to communicate with you.
[15:45] <Morydd> Jack_Sparrow: yes.
[15:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Morydd, Ok, one of those debs is what is messing you up..
[15:45] <sint> amenado, hischild: just a second i've switched back to ipw3945 driver and its not finding anything now
[15:46] <amenado> harsh1-> i assume then thats the one that takes up that bandwidth
[15:46] <harsh1> amenado: another line tells its "k.freenode.net:ircd (ESTABLISHED)"
[15:46] <mysterycool> hey
[15:46] <Morydd> Jack_Sparrow: Is there a simple way to hunt through them, or am I likely going to have to uninstall each and test for the broken one?
[15:47] <mysterycool> Ok so I downloaded Google Earth and it's a .bin. How can I install it?
[15:47] <noodlesgc> mysterycool type ./<.bin file>

[15:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Morydd, no easy way to do it..
[15:47] <sorsis> i would like to start using 8.02. any HOWTO available?
[15:47] <Morydd> That's what I was afraid of. Thanks for the help.
[15:47] <sint> hischild: the system has no internet at all. i am on a second computer
[15:48] <kongove> hello,everyone
[15:48] <Jack_Sparrow> Morydd, SOunds like you used a deb from debian repo that was not available in ubuntu.. (for a reason)
[15:48] <amenado> sint then use iwconfig eth1

[15:48] <dmsuperman_> 'lo everybody

[15:49] <sorsis> gregory: what should i do for sources list?

[15:50] <ikonia> mysterycool: your shouldn't be root
[15:50] <mysterycool> ...
[15:50] <ikonia> mysterycool: being root doesn't make a file executable
[15:51] <jochmenDS> right klick and edit permissions

[15:51] <slowlearner> mysterycool cmod +x file
[15:51] <harsh1> amenado: Thanks for your help, time and patience, I will run this command and check whenever required, bye for now and thanks once again.
[15:51] <slowlearner> *chmod
[15:51] <dmsuperman_> tomoyuki28jp: there's an option in your /boot/grub/menu.lst toward the top
[15:51] <amenado> tomoyuki28jp-> look into man grub  the option default
[15:51] <sint> amenado: how?
[15:52] <tomoyuki28jp> dmsuperman_: amenado:  Thanks for your info.  I will take a look at it.
[15:52] <amenado> sint to make a copy? look at your other computer copy it over to this working one, type it letter by letter?
[15:52] <Jack_Sparrow> tomoyuki28jp, edit grub menu and remove all but the option you want
[15:52] <ikonia> tomoyuki28jp: change the timeout to 0
[15:52] <dmsuperman_> tomoyuki28jp: no problem
[15:52] <ikonia> tomoyuki28jp: or use the noask option
[15:53] <dmsuperman_> Jack_Sparrow: the default option is better, because then you can still have the options should you choose to go into recovery mode :)
[15:53] <dmsuperman_> does anybody know if it's possible to open one of my currently open tty's with ssh?
[15:53] <Jack_Sparrow> dmsuperman_, agreed.

[15:55] <dmsuperman_> ikonia: what's screen?
[15:55] <castabranca> Enter text here...

[16:00] <MrFawkes> Uh, hi there. I'm trying to set up epiphany as the default browser on xubuntu. I did it in galternatives and xfce preferred applications, but when I click on links in, say, synaptic, I still get firefox. Any ideas?
[16:00] <balle_> i have a fear of using the restricted drivers of my grafix card nvidia go 6600 couse last time i installed it it messed up m system big time, so is there an way i can make a backup of my driver settings and load them during reboot in GRUB?
[16:01] <simmerz> I've got two screens and running compiz-fusion. one screen is bigger than the other and so I've had to specify a virtual desktop size. on the smaller screen, when i click below the desktop (by mistake, normally) X resets itself. any ideas?
[16:01] <Sturmeh> balle_ do you know how to set your graphics driver as vesa in the case of error?
[16:01] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, make a copy of your xorg.conf ....
[16:01] <Sturmeh> aight there we go
[16:01] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg or sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg (to just set res) If you get locked out Select vesa as your video card and 1024 max res.  Use tab or enter to accept all other defaults

[16:18] <gullstad> unop: Mind asking he how, or send me in the direction of an "How to"? :P
[16:18] <sint> lesshaste: install ssh-server and start it with /etc/init.d/ssh

[16:19] <Mez> yok, what are you on about ?
[16:19] <Sturmeh> zackymc_k sudo apt-get emerald
[16:19] <Sturmeh> no?
[16:19] <Mez> yok, I dont understand what you're trying to say ?
[16:20] <Odd-rationale> Sturmeh: + install
[16:20] <Sturmeh> check synaptic
[16:20] <Sturmeh> yea keep forgetting
[16:20] <sint> lesshaste: not sure, but i had the same problem when i was trying this once too. ssh is just a client in ubuntu and you have to install the server yourself

[16:37] <unop_> |Debian|, df
[16:37] <gfetco> Where to geet a virtual boot?
[16:37] <balle_> ikonia: sry To start using the driver you will need to logout and select Restart X Server from the menu, or press Alt+E
[16:37] <|Debian|> ubunu ... don't see why it makes a differencwe
[16:37] <balle_> ikonia: alt+E does nothing

[16:41] <ikonia> tifine: man zip
[16:41] <gfetco> world of warcraft
[16:41] <noodlesgc> cheesypieces no, awn requires compiz to be running

[16:41] <ikonia> gfetco: killing wine should kill that
[16:41] <gfetco> gets bugged and i cant do anything
[16:41] <gfetco> how?
[16:41] <noodlesgc> amee2k you mean that ubuntu automatically installed updates?
[16:41] <larmeh> tifine: do you explicitly need a zip file or is tar.gz ok too?
[16:41] <ikonia> gfetco: can you still move the mouse / open terminals etc
[16:41] <gfetco> i cant move the mouse
[16:41] <cheesypieces> noodlesgc: is there a way to check if its running or not?
[16:41] <ikonia> gfetco: ahhh so your machine dies, restart is the only way then
[16:41] <gfetco> i cant even open terminal
[16:42] <tifine> larmeh, no zip file only

[16:42] <tifine> ikonia, that is a nice answer :P
[16:42] <ikonia> gfetco: if your machine hangs you'll have to restart
[16:42] <ikonia> tifine: no problem
[16:42] <gfetco> its to laggy to even use force quit
[16:42] <gregory> |Debian|: irssi
[16:43] <amee2k> unfortunately i just hit "install anyway" so i can't make a screenshot until the next update

[16:44] <ikonia> gfetco: do something that gets the pid for wow / wine the kill -9 it in a script
[16:45] <noodlesgc> amee2k it means that you are using community maintained software, its pretty normal
[16:45] <ikonia> gfetco: sounds like your machine is under resourced
[16:45] <Seamus> in the prerouting table I have this: DNAT       tcp  --  anywhere             <IP_ADDRESS>        tcp dpt:3389 to:<IP_ADDRESS>:3389
[16:45] <gfetco> kk
[16:45] <ikonia> Seamus: /join #netfilter or #iptables
[16:45] <Andrewm> Perhaps it's an LMHOSTS thing?

[16:45] <ikonia> gfetco: ps -ef | Grep wine

[16:46] <Andrewm> ikonia: NetBios over TCP/IP ?
[16:46] <amee2k> or rsync?
[16:46] <ikonia> Andrewm: ????? ?what, is this an ubuntu box your trying to connect to the internet ?
[16:46] <ikonia> amee2k: you should not get unauthenticated updates
[16:46] <Andrewm> ikonia, I have the directions for winxp.
[16:46] <ikonia> amee2k: there is a problem
[16:46] <noodlesgc> amee2k ok something is out of whack

[16:47] <amee2k> ikonia: then i shouldn't be the only one having this problem, right?
[16:47] <ikonia> Andrewm: no - I mean the instructions for windows XP are of no use to you on an ubuntu box
[16:47] <ikonia> amee2k: no, and from time to time I've seen it
[16:48] <amee2k> hm...
[16:48] <balle_> ikonia: i have tried to use the detect screen options and enabling the drivers, not helping..

[16:48] <amee2k> does it disappear on its own, or is there anything i can do? like updating some public key or something
[16:49] <Andrewm> iknoia: yes, but the data of various network settings are all there
[16:49] <asdrubal> I know how to generate a uuid
[16:49] <asdrubal> but so what
[16:49] <gfetco> Ikonia, what do you mean by ps -ef | Grep wine?
[16:49] <balle_> ikonia: have done that before, did not enable the drivers sadly, is there no other options?
[16:49] <gfetco> then I mean the Grep wine part
[16:49] <ikonia> gfetco the shell command of "ps -ef | grep wine" will give you the pid
[16:49] <amee2k> |Debian|: epiphany is nice ... or links2 or CLI
[16:49] <ikonia> balle_: is the nvidia module loaded
[16:49] <ikonia> asdrubal: you don't assign one
[16:49] <ikonia> asdrubal: they are system assigned
[16:49] <gfetco> kk
[16:49] <Howbag> Hello (:
[16:49] <asdrubal> ikonia wrong
[16:49] <ikonia> asdrubal: oh, then how do you assign one
[16:49] <gfetco> is grep the variable?
[16:50] <asdrubal> ikonia ok fine, so how do I determine what the UUID is?
[16:50] <ikonia> gfetco: no, a command
[16:50] <ikonia> asdrubal: blkid
[16:50] <gfetco> where is the variable?
[16:50] <asdrubal> ikonia k thanks
[16:50] <Pici> gfetco: what variable?
[16:50] <ikonia> gfetco: there isn't one
[16:50] <balle_> ikonia: in the screens and graphics under graphic cards it says nvidia 6 series, so i guess so
[16:50] <gfetco> Shouldnt i put the pid in a variable then kill var
[16:50] <crazytalk> i am going to reinstall ubuntu and someone recommended using a 20gb /, 2 gb swap and the rest in home
[16:50] <ikonia> balle_: I'm going to stop helping you now as you don't listen to a THING I'm saying, I ask questions and you respond with random answers.
[16:50] <Pici> gfetco: But you dont know what the pid is yet.
[16:51] <crazytalk> he said this is good for reinstalls, can someone tell me how to do this?
[16:51] <gfetco> but the pid is diffrent frome time to time?
[16:51] <ikonia> gfetco: you get the pid from the command I gav eyou
[16:51] <ikonia> gfetco: as I've told you 3 times now
[16:51] <Pici> gfetco: Yes. its the process id.
[16:51] <gfetco> i can write ps -u georgij then i can find the pid from there
[16:51] <Morydd> is there a place I can download individual files from ubuntu .deb packages?
[16:51] <gfetco> easier
[16:51] <ikonia> gfetco: NO
[16:51] <ikonia> gfetco: ps -ef | grep wine
[16:52] <balle_> ikonia: allright man...
[16:52] <ikonia> gfetco: or ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep wine
[16:52] <Andrewm> ikonia: enable "Automatic metric" ?
[16:52] <balle_> anybody knows what the nvidia module is and how to enable it?
[16:52] <ikonia> gfetco: I'm giving you the EXACT commands so how can you tell me it's "easier" your way when you don't know what your doing
[16:52] <gregory> Morydd: no
[16:52] <ikonia> Andrewm: please stop saying random things to me
[16:52] <gfetco> But I found the pid to the wine with my way of doing it
[16:52] <gfetco> so what did i do wrong?
[16:52] <gfetco> lol
[16:52] <ikonia> gfetco: do what you want
[16:52] <gregory> Morydd: still you can apt-get the file without installation and then look whats inside
[16:53] <ikonia> gfetco: but if your doing that, stop asking how
[16:53] <Morydd> gregory: it's apt that's broken :)
[16:53] <gfetco> how?
[16:53] <gfetco> hahaha
[16:53] <ikonia> gfetco: best way to get ignored
[16:53] <Andrewm> ikonia: thanks for the help
[16:53] <Morydd> the files in /etc/lib/apt/methods/ are missing.
[16:53] <gfetco> :P
[16:53] <hischild> gfetco, if you request help from any of us, please follow the advice given. If you refuse to do what we tell you, we cannot and eventually will not help you out.
[16:53] <hischild> !lol | gfetco
[16:53] <ubotu> gfetco: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks.
[16:54] <gregory> Morydd: so the installation layer is broken and you cant reinstall apt?
[16:54] <balle_> anybody knows what the nvidia module is and how to enable it? and what it does
[16:54] <gfetco> Omg, it says I cannot use Omg or LOL!! omfg loool!
[16:54] <ikonia> balle_: read the link ubotu sent you
[16:55] <Morydd> gregory: seems that way.
[16:55] <gfetco> I thought Linux was about being free...
[16:55] <gregory> Morydd: interesting, maybe you still have the files in the trashbin?
[16:55] <jelle> sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[16:56] <ikonia> gfetco: it is - but that has no relevance to your attitude
[16:56] <|Debian|> anyone know of any lightwieght browsers ?
[16:56] <jelle> or check the restricted drivers for nvidia driver support
[16:56] <ay^> gfetco: oh yeah
[16:56] <gregory> gfetco: and in democrary not everybody is nudist.. ;-)
[16:56] <ay^> free NOT te read omg and lool every 3 seconds
[16:56] <jelle> lightbrowser -> FF3 or opera
[16:56] <ay^> *to

[16:57] <NoZzLe> So here's the deal, I do web development out of my home and I've been running various version of MSDOS and Windows for many years now.  I've been slowly teaching myself how to run linux as a desktop for over a year now using vms and I've switched over to ubuntu completely now.  Been running it exclusively for a year and I'm pleased.
[16:57] <swuboo> Light browsers?  Lynx, if you're really serious about the lightness thing.
[16:57] <gregory> Mez: yes
[16:57] <ikonia> balle__: if you did not recive the link - why did you say 3 times you'd read the document I sent you
[16:57] <ay^> elinks is what I use on a regular basis
[16:57] <|Debian|> ikonia: not looking for a text based ... just something simple

[16:58] <jelle> browser for you www.gnome.org/projects/epiphany/
[16:58] <gfetco> But I dont understand why they are making such a big deal for me saying something like "Lol, Omg" espacially when I didnt say it until they told me not to say it...

[16:59] <Mez> !ot | gfetco
[16:59] <ubotu> gfetco: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!

[16:59] <ubotu> gfetco: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.
[16:59] <ikonia> gfetco: thats personal opinion
[16:59] <Ollie> Hey, if I install ubuntu onto a CD, how do I boot ubuntu off the CD without harming my Windows installation?
[16:59] <NoZzLe> I even have Photoshop, thumbsplus, and forte agent running under crossover.  After trying various flavors of *nix I run ubuntu and imo ubuntu is just about ready for primetime.  That's the end of my rant.
[16:59] <Mez> thats the one I was looking for PriceChild :)
[16:59] <ikonia> Ollie: you can't really install onto a cd
[17:00] <X-plo> I'm triying to install a package but I have got broken pipe this is my output if someone can check it out http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7011/
[17:00] <re1> hi
[17:00] <u-foka> # Appears as TIKI
[17:00] <gfetco> Why cant people answer simple questions? XD IS there a chat channel please?
[17:00] <swuboo> Ollie:  ikonia's right, that doesn't actually work quite like that, but you *can* make a LiveCD.  If you boot off the LiveCD, it won't do anything to your Windows install unless you ask it to.
[17:00] <Ollie> But I download the ISO and burn to CD, what is that actually doing?
[17:00] <hischild> gfetco, #ubuntu-offtopic is what you're talking about.
[17:01] <ikonia> Ollie ahh ok, thats made a live cd and install source
[17:01] <Ollie> Awesome, cheers swuboo and ikonia
[17:01] <jelle> i cant install x-chat systray  anyone nows this problem?
[17:01] <ikonia> Ollie: burn the ISO onto the cDrom then boot from it

[17:01] <gfetco> !offtopic
[17:01] <NoZzLe> gfetco:  i prefer firefox (or swiftfox)...but for the best support and answers I go to ubuntu forums on the web.
[17:01] <Ollie> To boot from the CD, do I just pop it in and it will come up with the option?
[17:01] <swuboo> Ollie:  Assuming the CD is above the hard drive in your BIOS boot order, yes.
[17:01] <ikonia> Ollie: if your bios is set to boot from cd, sure
[17:02] <Mez> !botabuse | gfetco
[17:02] <ubotu> gfetco: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (type also /msg ubotu Bot). Don't use commands in the public channels if you don't know if they really exist. Also avoid adding joke/useless factoids.
[17:02] <Ollie> Cheers, I am downloading it now, will pop back here in about an hour after I have downloaded and tried to boot :P
[17:02] <swuboo> Ollie:  If the optical drive is the first boot device, the CD will boot into Ubuntu, storing what it needs in RAM.  It won't write to your hard drive unless you ask it to, there's an install icon for that purpose.
[17:02] <gfetco> (18.01.24) murlidhar: !offtopic
[17:02] <gfetco> But but he did it
[17:03] <Mez> gfetco, yes, so you've no need to repeat surely ?
[17:03] <Ollie> swuboo: What will happen if I install a program whilest running Ubuntu?
[17:03] <gfetco> But everyone is blaming me
[17:03] <gfetco> bye
[17:03] <gfetco> Freedom!
[17:03] <murlidhar> gfetco, just wanted to know the channel name that's why i typed that
[17:03] <gfetco> Freedom!
[17:03] <ikonia> gfetco: ok - go already
[17:03] <swuboo> Ollie:  Depending, as I recall, it downloads the package off the internet and stores it in memory.  Obviously, you'll find yourself limited by your available RAM.
[17:04] <Mez> !repeat | gfetco
[17:04] <ubotu> gfetco: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[17:04] <swuboo> Ollie:  Assuming the package isn't on the CD already, of course.  If it is on the CD, it just loads it into RAM as necessary.

[17:04] <ubotu> For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[17:04] <Ollie> swuboo: Say I downloaded OpenOffice (just an example, you probably can't) and I install it, will it put it on HDD?
[17:05] <swuboo> Ollie:  No, not unless you install Ubuntu onto your hard drive first.
[17:05] <daire> for reinstalls i want to create sep partitions. 20 gig /, 2 gig swap and the rest in home. should the 20 gig / be primary or logical, is it at the beginning or end, and what should it be used as? eg ext3
[17:05] <Ollie> swuboo: Where will it install it, onto RAM?
[17:05] <daire> i'm in the live cd atm
[17:05] <swuboo> Ollie:  I think the CD already has OpenOffice on it, but I could be wrong.  If it does, the CD will just load it into RAM.
[17:05] <Ollie> swuboo: Don't understand, but I'm sure I will later
[17:06] <swuboo> Ollie:  If it helps by way of example, a friend of mine set up his mother with a computer with a LiveCD and no HDD at all.
[17:06] <Ollie> swuboo:Ooooo, insteresting, cheers mate
[17:06] <swuboo> Ollie:  Cheers.  You'll see how it works.
[17:07] <Ollie> swuboo: Cya after a clean (hopefully) install and boot!
[17:07] <Ollie> Bye guys!
[17:08] <balle_> there really isnt much help for ubuntu 7.10 in the !nividia link..
[17:08] <ikonia> balle_ there is tons
[17:09] <daire> !partitions
[17:09] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in !GNOME under !Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For !Edgy and later, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[17:09] <balle_> ikonia: not really in the binary howtwo.. (i would post dir link but it's very long)
[17:09] <X-plo>  I'm triying to install a package but I have got broken pipe this is my output if someone can check it out http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7011/
[17:09] <ikonia> balle_: yes, its' exactly the same in 7.04 as 7.10
[17:09] <ikonia> balle_: so the guide is very good
[17:09] <balle_> ikonia: thx!
[17:11] <puppetmaster> hey everyone.. how to make ubuntu mount a hdd I just connected while pc is working??
[17:11] <asdrubal> ikonia how come my hpfsplus partition doesn't show up in blkid
[17:11] <daire> for reinstalls i want to create sep partitions. 20 gig /, 2 gig swap and the rest in home. should the 20 gig /, 2 gig swap and home be primary or logical, at the beginning or end, and apart from swap what should the other 2 parts be used as? eg ext3
[17:11] <asdrubal> ikonia err hfsplus
[17:12] <puppetmaster> in windows xp I just connect the hardware and make scan for plug and play
[17:12] <ikonia> asdrubal: don't you need the kernel module inserted to see the pardtition
[17:12] <puppetmaster> so is there anything like that in ubuntu
[17:13] <balle_> ikonia: i see that my card is supported, and i have set the drivers to be the ones used, and enabled the restricted drivers on my gfx card, but it still wont work, you said something about a nvidia module?
[17:13] <ikonia> balle_: yes you need to see if it's running
[17:13] <redr> hi
[17:13] <ikonia> balle_: or see if it's loaded to be more exact
[17:13] <redr> can someone help me?
[17:14] <ikonia> redr: hi
[17:14] <Bailie> where's the trash configuration?
[17:14] <balle_> ikonia:  and how do i do that?
[17:14] <sls_> does anyone know what a *.udeb is?
[17:14] <redr> i login on my ubuntu machine remotely using ssh
[17:14] <balle_> ikonia: lscip?
[17:14] <ikonia> what ?
[17:14] <ikonia> lsmod
[17:14] <puppetmaster> ?
[17:14] <balle_> ikonia: lsmod for me?
[17:14] <ikonia> balle_: yes
[17:14] <redr> i want to keep running some commands even after loggin off
[17:14] <ikonia> redr: ok, yes
[17:15] <sls_> does anyone know what a *.udeb is? -- anyone?
[17:15] <asdrubal> ikonia yeah I have hfsplus kernel module
[17:15] <ikonia> redr: nohup and & or screen is your friend
[17:15] <gregory> Bailie: what exactly do you want to change?
[17:15] <ikonia> asdrubal: thats odd and blkid doesn't show anything ?
[17:15] <asdrubal> ikonia nope.
[17:15] <asdrubal> ikonia also weird is I can't mount it rw
[17:15] <redr> i want to download something big files
[17:15] <Bailie> gregory: I want to disable trash
[17:15] <asdrubal> ikonia I recently install hackintosh on it
[17:15] <balle_> ikonia: i got something nvidia  but it says it's used by 0
[17:15] <redr> so i want to use wget or something
[17:15] <ikonia> asdrubal: I didn't think HFS was write supported (I don't knw)
[17:15] <John_Priest> Does anyone know of a program that could allow me to easily set up an keyboard macro to press a single key at a timed interval
[17:16] <ikonia> redr: nohup and & or screen is still your friend
[17:16] <asdrubal> I like ubuntu alot better than OSX
[17:16] <sls_> does anyone know what a *.udeb is? -- anyone? really?
[17:16] <redr> wont it disconnet if i logout?
[17:16] <hischild> sls_, checked www.filext.com ?
[17:17] <gregory> Bailie: open nautilus: edit -> preferences: behaviour: Trash
[17:17] <daire> or reinstalls i want to create sep partitions. 20 gig /, 2 gig swap and the rest in home. should the 20 gig / be primary or logical, is it at the beginning or end, and what should it be used as? eg fat32
[17:17] <daire> *for
[17:17] <Bailie> gregory: Thank You
[17:17] <Pici> sls_: try file yourfile.udeb
[17:17] <hischild> daire, you should create them ext3 and not use fat32. If you have 4 or less partitions, create them all primary. Start them all at the beginning. Any more questions?
[17:18] <daire> ty and stanby while i try please
[17:18] <ikonia> redr: ughhhhh I've just told you nohup and backgrounding the job with & or using the screen application will resolve that
[17:18] <redr> thanks ikonia
[17:18] <|Debian|> anyone know why gaim just randomly shuts it's self off ... every now and then ?
[17:18] <Slart> John_Priest: a simple bash script would perhaps work.. if you only knew how to "create" a keypress using the terminal..
[17:18] <ikonia> |Debian|: never seen it do that
[17:18] <Slart> |Debian|: gaim? or pidgin?
[17:18] <|Debian|> gaim
[17:19] <ikonia> |Debian|: what version of ubuntu are you using ?
[17:19] <|Debian|> 6.10
[17:19] <sls_> !udeb
[17:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about udeb - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[17:19] <aimchanger> upgrade son
[17:19] <|Debian|> nope
[17:19] <sls_> udebs are microdebs, "regular debian packages that are not policy compliant. They are used by the new debian-installer project, to build up the actual system that then installs debian." -- thus spake Joey Hess, the great debian genius
[17:19] <ikonia> |Debian|: never seen it behave like that
[17:19] <|Debian|> the new versions won't work on my PPC
[17:19] <ikonia> |Debian|: ahhh your on ppc
[17:19] <aimchanger> on
[17:19] <aimchanger> on

[17:19] <aimchanger> oh
[17:20] <balle_> ikonia: i got something nvidia  but it says it's used by 0
[17:20] <Slart> |Debian|: the LTS versions work on ppc? or they just abandoned it after 6.10 ?
[17:20] <tyler> Is this the ubuntu IRC chat?
[17:20] <Slart> tyler: yes, it is
[17:20] <tyler> I was curious I was wondering how I would run EXE files?
[17:21] <aimchanger> wine
[17:21] <ikonia> tyler: only thorugh wine
[17:21] <daire> hischild: i tried to put them under the one partition table, sda1 set as use: swap, sda2 20gb = ext3 but when i tried to make the rest into a part asnd selected ext3 it said i could not put the end before the start
[17:21] <Slart> tyler: linux doesn't natively run exe files.. they use another system.. you can use wine or a !vm to run windows binaries though
[17:21] <tyler> I just installed Ubuntu Linux so what's wine?
[17:21] <Slart> !wine
[17:21] <ubotu> WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[17:21] <aimchanger> search the universe repo for wine in synaptic
[17:21] <ompaul> !prefix | aimchanger
[17:21] <ubotu> aimchanger: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[17:22] <aimchanger> in administration
[17:22] <aimchanger> haha sorry I'm on my iPod
[17:22] <tyler> So where would I find wine?
[17:22] <hischild> daire, then the error is probably like it said, you can't put the end before the start.
[17:22] <ompaul> !wine | tyler
[17:22] <ubotu> tyler: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[17:22] <daire> hischild: what does that mean?
[17:23] <aimchanger> Tyler:search google fora howto
[17:23] <daire> where have i tried to put 'the end before the start'?
[17:23] <|Debian|> tyler: apt-cache search wine
[17:23] <tyler> Also I was wondering about that 3D cube effect where would I find that?
[17:23] <|Debian|> tyler .. waste of ram
[17:23] <daire> tyler: desktop effects
[17:23] <tyler> I got 4GB of ram.
[17:23] <aimchanger> tyler: in terminal type. Sufi apt-get install wine
[17:23] <aimchanger> sufi*
[17:23] <ompaul> aimchanger, please do not suggest to someone here to use google, find them a url or else search the bot - it has a couple of thousand factoids not all of them serious
[17:23] <balle_> anybody knows how to check if your nvidia module is loaded and if not how to load it?
[17:24] <tyler> My processor is quad core it's over clocked to 6.36ghz
[17:24] <Morydd> how can I determine which version of ubuntu I'm running?
[17:24] <Slart> sufi??
[17:24] <tyler> Morydd wouldn't you find out from which one you installed?
[17:24] <bastid_raZor> tyler; that sounds insane.. do applications open before you click them?
[17:24] <tyler> or downloaded.
[17:24] <tyler> Yes my applications do open fast.
[17:24] <swuboo> tyler:  Look into compiz fusion, the Advanced Desktop Effects Settings lets you play around a lot with the exact settings for the cube and so forth.
[17:25] <ompaul> Morydd, on the command line type "lsb-release -a"
[17:25] <tyler> Where's that?
[17:25] <tyler> I am not so professional with the navigation yet.
[17:25] <tushyd> can't get pulseaudio working with Flash player 9 non-free. can anyone help? I installed the experimental .so file on the pulseaudio site but to no avail
[17:25] <balle_> anybody knows how to check if your nvidia module is loaded and if not how to load it?
[17:26] <swuboo> tyler:  Synaptic.  Just search for compiz.
[17:26] <Slart> balle_: lsmod lists your modules..
[17:26] <tyler> Which tab would help me find synaptic
[17:26] <Slart> tyler: synaptic is in System, Administration
[17:26] <tyler> Found it
[17:26] <tyler> compiz ok let me find it
[17:27] <balle_> Slart: yes, and it does list nvidia but with 0 users and another nvidia,intel agp  but i still can't use my gfx card sadly
[17:27] <tushyd> is anyone here knowledgeable in pulseaudio?
[17:27] <tyler> Ok I see cairo-clock / compiz / compiz-bcop
[17:28] <daire> hischild: i think when you try to create a partition with unbuntu 7.04 live cd larger than 200gb you that error, 'you can't put the end before the start'
[17:28] <tyler> and so forth is it compiz that I install?
[17:28] <tyler> It says it's installed now what?
[17:28] <lauro> hi there!
[17:28] <hischild> daire, what are you using to create the partitions? perhaps you could try to use a partitioner like gparted or qtparted
[17:29] <lauro> is there anyone who can help me? how can I play mp3???
[17:29] <swuboo> tyler:  There should be a package called compiz-fusion-plugins-extra and another called compiz-fusion-plugins-main.
[17:30] <IdleOne> !mp3 | lauro
[17:30] <ubotu> lauro: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[17:30] <tushyd> lauro, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/MP3
[17:30] <tyler> Yes
[17:30] <Slart> balle_: hmm.. odd.. Nvidia usually works without much problems..
[17:30] <tyler> I see it
[17:30] <swuboo> tyler:  You'll want those too.
[17:30] <tyler> Slart if it helps I am running 8800gt nvidia it works
[17:30] <daire> hischild:  i was trying to use the manual partitioner on the ubuntu live cd installer, i will try use something different
[17:30] <tyler> Ok I installed them or mark to install
[17:31] <tyler> How do I officially install them?
[17:31] <IdleOne> tyler: now click apply
[17:31] <cyka> hey peeps
[17:31] <cyka> whats teh line needed to updaate everything
[17:31] <tyler> Ok got it
[17:31] <cyka> or whats a good program to search for for an update manager
[17:31] <tushyd> cyka, sudo apt-get update, is that what you're taking about
[17:31] <tyler> So when I install them all what do I do?
[17:31] <IdleOne> cyka: I think you want sudo apt-get safe-upgrade
[17:31] <cyka> probably tushyd
[17:31] <swuboo> tyler:  I think you probably also want libcompizconfig0.
[17:32] <rajiv_nair> hello al
[17:32] <balle_> Slart: yea, and i have been having nothing but... maybe because it's a labtop?
[17:32] <cyka> thanks IdleOne
[17:32] <swuboo> tyler:  Once all those are installed, under System, Preferences, there should be a new option called, "Advanced Desktop Settings Manager"
[17:32] <Nasra> I have a question, why when I go into webpage the letters are so small to read .....I have to use the Ctrl ++ all the time to increase the font-size ...is there a way to fix this ....so when I open a webpage  the font size are correct?
[17:32] <lauro> yeah, but how can I install gstreamer?
[17:32] <Slart> balle_: might be.. laptops can be weird
[17:32] <swuboo> tyler:  Tweak that to your heart's content.  You can adjust things like the distance the cube recedes when you rotate it, how transparent it becomes, the exact key/mouse bindings, etc. etc.
[17:33] <tyler> This is in desktop thingy?
[17:33] <rajiv_nair> lauro: install ubuntu-restricted-extras from synaptic
[17:33] <rajiv_nair> that should give you everything
[17:33] <swuboo> tyler:  I'm not sure I understand quite what you mean by desktop thingy.
[17:33] <gregory> Nasra: you can set a bigger default font in your browser settings
[17:33] <tyler> visual effects?
[17:33] <tushyd> lauro try synaptec
[17:33] <tyler> I see it
[17:33] <tyler> custum?
[17:33] <tyler> custom*
[17:33] <Nasra> gregory: thanks alot...should I save it ...right?
[17:34] <gregory> yes
[17:34] <swuboo> tyler:  Sure, I guess.
[17:34] <cyka> IdleOne: it says invalid operation "safe-upgrade"
[17:34] <tyler> I see alot of effect
[17:34] <tyler> and I found the cube
[17:34] <tyler> so how I use the cube?
[17:34] <bart2008> trying to install upgrade for cupsys, and have this problem --> dpkg: error processing cupsys (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[17:35] <rajiv_nair> cltr+alt+right/left
[17:35] <erwrwe> hi
[17:35] <swuboo> tyler:  Set up cube rotation.
[17:35] <bart2008> who can help me?
[17:35] <tyler> I did
[17:35] <tyler> I enabled it
[17:35] <Stroganoff> bart2008 there should be more error messages
[17:35] <rajiv_nair> tyler: hold ctrl+alt then click and drag
[17:35] <tyler> ok
[17:36] <tyler> SWEET
[17:36] <tyler> !!!!!!!
[17:36] <tyler> OMG

[17:36] <tyler> Oh, sorry.
[17:36] <tyler> Now about that wine.
[17:36] <swuboo> tyler:  If you're using the Advanced Desktop Effects Settings thing I told you to, you can adjust a huge amount of things involving how the cube works.
[17:36] <tyler> How do I find the download?
[17:36] <rajiv_nair> sudo apt-get install wine
[17:37] <jvm_> hi. 'uptime' prints out how long the system was actually running. how can i determine when it was last time completely restarted, not just hibernated?
[17:37] <erwrwe> isn't there wine in application list?
[17:37] <tyler> http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/gutsy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
[17:37] <tyler> is that the link?
[17:37] <atlef> tyler: http://www.wine-doors.org/wordpress/ try that one, installs a lot more then just wine
[17:37] <tyler> to the 7.10 download?
[17:37] <rajiv_nair> why use that link
[17:37] <swuboo> tyler:  Just search for 'wine' in Synaptic.
[17:37] <rajiv_nair> download using synaptic or via apt-get
[17:37] <tyler> ok
[17:38] <tyler> This is linux right?
[17:38] <rajiv_nair> GNU/Linux ;)
[17:38] <kernfreak> lol
[17:38] <tushyd> ha
[17:38] <tyler> ok
[17:38] <tyler> I just got into it.
[17:38] <bart2008> it seems like was installed, but something is wrong with post-installation of cupsys
[17:38] <swuboo> tyler:  Well, if it's not Linux, I have no idea how we just managed to set up Desktop Effects for you.
[17:38] <tyler> Does this include anti virus?
[17:38] <erwrwe> how can I use mac apps on ubuntu 7.10?
[17:38] <kernfreak> actually GNU, and linux are seperate
[17:38] <jvm_> i believe 'uptime' at my debian system printed the time since last reboot (even if the computer did not run in the time between, because it was hibernated), and 'uptime' at my ubuntu system prints the time the system was actually running (so hibernation time is not included)
[17:39] <lauro> how can I install gstreamer
[17:39] <gregory> jvm_: grep "Kernel command line" /var/log/messages
[17:39] <bart2008> Stroganoff, do you know what it could be?
[17:39] <bart2008> maybe something wrong with apparmor
[17:39] <rajiv_nair> tyler: if you are new to GNU/Linux make sure you read the following articles
[17:39] <rajiv_nair> http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
[17:40] <rajiv_nair> tyler: http://www.zenwalk.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=16
[17:40] <rajiv_nair> that one too
[17:40] <tushyd> lauro, did you try synaptic?
[17:40] <tyler> I've read alot about this just ubunto made it seem like a new OS
[17:40] <erwrwe> is there a way to use mac apps on ubuntu?
[17:40] <Pici> rajiv_nair: Do you have a support question?
[17:40] <swuboo> Gah, let's not get into a GNU versus Linux discussion.
[17:40] <swuboo> tyler:  No, I don't believe there's any antivirus installed by default.
[17:40] <tyler> Erwrwe I think you should use that parrelel
[17:40] <tyler> thingy
[17:41] <ShiroUsagi> Hi, I`ll greatly appreciate if anyone could help me with my file-sharing disaster. I gave up on samba and currently am setting up nfs, it even worked until I rebooted the client-machine... No configuration changes have been made on the server side.
[17:41] <tyler> Would AVG work?
[17:41] <bart2008> how can I solve the following problem: dpkg: error processing cupsys (--configure)
[17:41] <bart2008> it was upgraded by synaptic
[17:42] <gregory> ShiroUsagi: try #ubuntu-server
[17:42] <erwrwe> mac on am2 cpu?
[17:42] <atlef> tyler: you do not need antivirus, but if you want if try clamwin
[17:42] <ShiroUsagi> gregory, It`s a slumber channel, I`ve been there earlier today, no luck.
[17:43] <jamaicanbishop> SUCCESS
[17:43] <jvm_> gregory, in my messages log file is nothing but "-- MARK --", "syslogd 1.4.1#21ubuntu3: restart." which seems to happen even if the computer is not rebooted, and "gnome-power-manager: (jvm) Resuming computer". no other messages in there, not even in the older log files.
[17:43] <gregory> ShiroUsagi: ah ok thanks for the info about channel state
[17:43] <Stroganoff> bart2008: sudo dpkg-reconfigure cupsys
[17:43] <jamaicanbishop> I got rid of OSE like you guys said reconfigued me permissions and everthing works
[17:43] <bart2008> let me try
[17:43] <jamaicanbishop> its a beautiful thing when a plan comes together
[17:43] <tyler> Well does this OS get viruses?
[17:44] <rajiv_nair> tyler: yes..there are/maybe viruses
[17:44] <Matrikz> (tyler): not near as many as windows
[17:44] <rajiv_nair> tyler: but fewer in no. when compared to microsoft windows and rate of spreading is also very low
[17:44] <Matrikz> and it is extremely rare when linux will get a virus
[17:44] <|Debian|> !galeon
[17:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about galeon - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[17:44] <bart2008> Stroganoff: this is the result --> /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: cupsys is broken or not fully installed
[17:44] <tyler> Ok it's just my T3 ISP calls me alot and tells me I got trogan.worms and ETC
[17:44] <tyler> IRC.WORM ones to.
[17:45] <Matrikz> that you can get
[17:45] <gregory> jvm_: sorry need to reask. you want to know when the computer was really restarted?
[17:45] <gregory> rebooted
[17:45] <jvm_> gregory, yes.
[17:45] <Matrikz> don't click on unknown urls posted in irc channels or pms
[17:45] <ShiroUsagi> gregory, I don`t mean to be picky, but it seems that developers are not on today. Your irony is a bit unfitting.
[17:45] <jvm_> gregory, at the moment i can only see how long i actually used it.
[17:45] <bart2008> what do I have to do?
[17:45] <Stroganoff> bart2008 this is the only error?
[17:45] <gregory> ShiroUsagi: there was no irony. i am nonnative. nobodys perfect
[17:45] <Stroganoff> !pastebin | bart2008
[17:45] <ubotu> bart2008: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)
[17:45] <bart2008> yes, this is the only error
[17:46] <Stroganoff> strange
[17:46] <erwrwe> is there nothing like wine to use mac apps?
[17:46] <Stroganoff> sudo apt-get reinstall cupsys
[17:46] <ikonia> ShiroUsagi: whats the question
[17:46] <ShiroUsagi> gregory, My bad, than, sorry. This NFS/SMB stuff sucks blood out of me.
[17:46] <ShiroUsagi> ikonia, I can`t mount an nfs share.
[17:46] <rajiv_nair> can nautilus handle nfs shares?
[17:46] <ikonia> ShiroUsagi: ok, whats the problem/error
[17:47] <ShiroUsagi> ikonia, It worked earlier today, before reboot, now I get the "timed out" error
[17:47] <ShiroUsagi> ikonia, The client reboot, not the server
[17:47] <rajiv_nair> konqueror gets kio_slaves to handle nfs://
[17:47] <ikonia> ShiroUsagi: is the nfs server still running, is the client service now running
[17:47] <gregory> jvm_: this gives the last time i booted up. grep "Kernel command line" /var/log/messages . still you have to manually do the math. i dont know which tool that would be, sorry.
[17:47] <rajiv_nair> nautilus handles smb:// but no nfs
[17:48] <ShiroUsagi> ikonia, Everything`s up and running on the server side.
[17:48] <ShiroUsagi> ikonia, There were no changes made.
[17:48] <jvm_> gregory, this command returns nothing here.
[17:48] <ikonia> ShiroUsagi: what about the client
[17:48] <ShiroUsagi> ikonia, Just a reboot.
[17:48] <bart2008> Stroganoff: cupsys: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[17:48] <ShiroUsagi> ikonia, And this error now/
[17:48] <ikonia> ShiroUsagi: I didn't ask that
[17:49] <ikonia> ShiroUsagi: I asked if the NFS client was running
[17:49] <ShiroUsagi> ikonia, Ah, yes.
[17:49] <Stroganoff> bart2008: sudo apt-get remove cupsys
[17:49] <gregory> jvm_: ok, then you might try to find an unambigious string via "dmesg" for your system. it prints the kernel messages when your system boots up
[17:50] <ikonia> ShiroUsagi: ok, so what mount command are you using and whats the error
[17:50] <bart2008> Stroganoff, it will remove other packages, like ubuntu-desktop, for example
[17:50] <jvm_> gregory, do dmesg logs contain any timestamps?
[17:51] <gregory> jvm_: no, but dmesg gets monitored also in /var/log/messages. you would have then use the string analogously in the grep command i gave earlier
[17:51] <bart2008> is that correct?
[17:51] <ShiroUsagi> ikonia, The one that worked before... sudo mount <IP_ADDRESS>:/home/username/ /home/myshare
[17:51] <ikonia> ShiroUsagi: can you do that from the server local host
[17:52] <gregory> jvm_: wait i am not sure
[17:52] <jvm_> gregory, dmesg contains a lot more messages here than the messages log file does.
[17:52] <bart2008> maybe it is a bug with cupsys...
[17:52] <gregory> jvm_: what i said should be true
[17:53] <nikin> hy
[17:53] <binarical-app> hi nikin
[17:53] <jvm_> gregory, thanks for your help. but it does not seem to apply to this computer. all messages log files here contain only a few hundred lines
[17:53] <gregory> jvm_: dmesg only records the last time you booted up, /var/log/messages has a longer history (can be days or weeks)
[17:53] <ShiroUsagi> ikonia, same error "mount.nfs: mount to NFS server '<IP_ADDRESS>' failed: timed out, retrying"
[17:54] <binarical-app> how can we help you nikin
[17:54] <ikonia> ShiroUsagi: ok, so your server is having an issue
[17:54] <ikonia> ShiroUsagi: if you can't mount it locally, try stopping the NFS server and restarting it, (not reboot) then check for errors
[17:54] <ShiroUsagi> ikonia, But that, I believe is because I didn`t add localhost to exports, isn`t it?
[17:54] <nikin> I have a computer with SSD and i want to do some graphics work and need some swap... i have an extern all HDD connected throug usb.. and i want to temporarly  allocate a 2 Gig Swap file on that... how can i do that?
[17:55] <ikonia> ShiroUsagi: your not using local host, your using 192.blah
[17:55] <jvm_> gregory, i can't find any messages similiar to those dmesg returns in /var/log/messages
[17:55] <ShiroUsagi> ikonia, Well, I did that a couple of times already with no visible errors.
[17:55] <tyler> Is there a setting to stop the screen from switching when mouse is in corner?
[17:55] <jvm_> gregory, either i am an idiot or my system behaves somehow different.
[17:55] <ikonia> ShiroUsagi: what does the logs say
[17:56] <binarical-app> ’╗┐nikin: imo , i think you should reallocate some of your files to the external and make your swap partiton on the internal, you may need to make the external bootable
[17:56] <binarical-app> *reallocate
[17:56] <Slart> tyler: there is.. it's a bindable shortcut.. I don't know where exactly.. but there is a tab for *all* bindings
[17:57] <nikin> binarical : i cant use SSD Solid State Disk to swap... becouse it will bur it out in less than a month
[17:57] <mouwen> y a quelqun
[17:57] <nikin> and as i have an ASUS eee
[17:57] <puppetmaster> hey anybody
[17:57] <Slart> !fr | mouwen
[17:57] <nikin> its only 4 Gig
[17:57] <ubotu> mouwen: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[17:57] <jvm_> gregory, do you know where i should look for some shell script only executed at startup time, so i can put a "date >> ~jvm/.boottimes" there?
[17:57] <puppetmaster> How to make ubuntu to Identify a hard disk while working on it????
[17:57] <jelle> there is a special ubuntu version for asus eeepc
[17:57] <jelle> eeexubuntu
[17:57] <ikonia> puppetmaster: what do you mean ?
[17:58] <Slart> jvm_: there are the rc.d scripts.. you'll have to find info on them by yourself.. or just take a look /etc/rc.d/ I think
[17:58] <nikin> jelle: i use that
[17:58] <puppetmaster> i mean I'm working now on ubuntu
[17:58] <jelle> ok sorry nikin
[17:58] <puppetmaster> then i connected a hard disk while I'm talking to u
[17:58] <jvm_> thank you Slart.
[17:58] <ikonia> puppetmaster: ok, so what do you want done
[17:58] <puppetmaster> so the partitions didn't show
[17:58] <Slart> jvm_: you're welcome
[17:58] <nikin> jelle : pp :) but i have to work on 14000x4000 images.. and i need a lot of MEM/Swap to do that
[17:59] <binarical-app> ’╗┐nikin: if your computer is slow the perhaps you dont need all that much swap space, +250m should be enough, if you still need more go for +512. if yous till want to make the swp on the external you will have to make it bootable
[17:59] <puppetmaster> i want to make the partition show up and I don't want to restart
[17:59] <ikonia> puppetmaster: what does the syslog say, did it detect the partitions
[17:59] <ikonia> puppetmaster: what sort of disk is it ide/sata/usb ?
[17:59] <puppetmaster> it didnt detect the hard disk in the first place
[17:59] <puppetmaster> so how do I make it detect it
[17:59] <ikonia> puppetmaster: what type of disk is it ?
[17:59] <puppetmaster> ide
[17:59] <mouwen> ment sa va
[17:59] <ikonia> puppetmaster: ide is not hot plugable
[18:00] <puppetmaster> how come
[18:00] <tyler> is there a way to add more then 2 desktop views?
[18:00] <puppetmaster> in xp I just plug it
[18:00] <jelle> sudo fdisk /dev/sda or hda
[18:00] <nikin> binarical: it is not on the size... it will kill my SSD in a month.. and thats not cheap... i9 can make the xternal HDD bootable if it is a must.. but i would like to use swap file.. not swap partition
[18:00] <puppetmaster> and make scan for plug and play devices
[18:00] <jvm_> tyler, right click on the pager and click preferences.
[18:00] <ikonia> puppetmaster: ok, I'll rephrase that dbus is not looking on the ide channels
[18:00] <ikonia> puppetmaster: what file systems are on this disk ?
[18:00] <binarical-app> ’╗┐ tyler: right click on the desktops , to preferances , add more desktops.
[18:00] <h4wk> Afternoon guys, just built my new rig. Installed ubuntu - However its not picking up my gfx card (Getting to install restricted drivers) How can i force this?
[18:00] <puppetmaster> ext3
[18:00] <puppetmaster> and reiserfs
[18:00] <mouwen> est ce qu'il y a quelq'un qui parle fran├¦ais
[18:00] <ikonia> h4wk: install the restricted drivers
[18:01] <MasterShrak> !fr | mouwen
[18:01] <ubotu> mouwen: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[18:01] <Slart> mouwen: type /join #ubuntu-fr
[18:01] <ikonia> puppetmaster: plug it in and reboot - lets see if it can see the disk at all ?
[18:01] <h4wk> ikonia Sorry how do you mean reinstall?
[18:01] <MatBoy> what package do I need to use sudo /etc/init.d/mysql reset-password ?
[18:01] <nikin> !swap
[18:01] <puppetmaster> it will man
[18:01] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[18:01] <ikonia> h4wk: install (not re-install) the restricted drivers
[18:01] <puppetmaster> dude i know it will after the rebot
[18:01] <puppetmaster> reboot and my question was I don't want to do that
[18:01] <ikonia> puppetmaster: ok
[18:02] <h4wk> ikonia its coming up there is no restrice drivers

[18:05] <ikonia> white_eagle: should be an icon on the task bar that you can use

[18:19] <denique> ikonia: I read the bug list and it appears to be fixed in the latest version. I just need to know why the system can't find that library. Do I need to specify the path in some evironmental variable or something?

[18:20] <|Lee|> Jack_Sparrow: Don't !wireless me, it won't work, I need this to get on-line.. The point is, could I put the driver on a blank CD (Not burn, just copy and paste) and then cd /dev/cdrom and install the driver from there?

[18:25] <gullstad> ikonia: Hello. They are now two databases, but they are still extanging information.
[18:26] <gullstad> ikonia: Somehow :P
[18:26] <ikonia> gullstad: have you configured one of the other machines to use the second database ? how did you build a new database ?
[18:26] <binarical-app> ’╗┐|Lee|: i think that a whole cd is a waste for one driver , perhaps what you should look into is : madwifi or : ndiswrapper

[18:27] <Ollie> How do I boot Ubuntu from a Live-CD when it doesn't boot by default?
[18:27] <ikonia> |Lee|: what type of driver is it a linux one, a windows one, what linux kernel is it built against ?
[18:28] <gullstad> Ollie: Go into your BIOS and change your BOOT-sequence. HDD is probly 1st.

[18:28] <|Lee|> ikonia: http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html It's one of those, that's all I'm sure about. :P
[18:28] <binarical-app> ’╗┐|Lee|: madwifi is built from source therefore no "connection" is nessecary if you already have the source code to extract. please print out a how to before you reboot and begin

[18:28] <gregory> ErkekAdam: what is a afree irvcd shell?
[18:28] <simplexio> |Lee|: yes you can move files to another computer just burning them into cd
[18:28] <Ollie> gullstad: IS that only way?
[18:28] <gullstad> Ollie: Probly.
[18:28] <Jack_Sparrow> dury, You need to click on the top panel and add a new one

[18:28] <gullstad> ikonia: WHat do you mean?
[18:28] <ErkekAdam> part
[18:28] <Ollie> Anyone else know a different way to boot Ubuntu from Live-CD, without changing BOIS?
[18:28] <h4wk> ikonia, im back
[18:29] <Legendre> Quick question.. I've got a laptop with the Atheros 52** wifi chipset.. where do I find the madwifi package for it??
[18:29] <binarical-app> ’╗┐|Lee|: ndiswrapper uses the windows driver you (may have on a windows partition) if you are runing windows right now then using ndiswrapper will work well for you.
[18:29] <ChaosParser> Ollie: Try pressing F12 at boot.  A lot of BIOS have a one time boot menu.
[18:29] <gullstad> Ollie: No. It's easy.
[18:29] <Legendre> is it apt-gettable or do I have to compile it?
[18:29] <h4wk> Ollie normally f12 to get into boot menu
[18:29] <Slart> Ollie: well.. there's all kinds of settings to change how it loads etc.. noacpi and such
[18:29] <Ollie> I know how to
[18:29] <ikonia> |Lee|: depending on which driver you use, it will depend on how it works, some drivers support 2.6.24 others stop at 2.6.21
[18:29] <Ollie> Just I wanted to know if any easier way
[18:29] <ikonia> binarical-app: but he'll still need to put ndiswrapper on a CD to burn it !3~
[18:29] <mrslow__> Hi, can anyone help with some driver problems on a 5 year old Sony laptop with Ubuntu 7.04
[18:29] <Ollie> And I think it is actually F2 for my BIOS
[18:30] <ikonia> gullstad: so you created the database using the setup.php ?
[18:30] <jelle> or Dell
[18:30] <ikonia> gullstad: did you call the databases difference names ?
[18:30] <Ollie> So, I change the boot settings to boot from DVD Drive by default and Seconday is hard drive/
[18:30] <ChaosParser> mrslow_: We won't know till we know what the problem is. :-p
[18:30] <gullstad> ikonia: Yes.
[18:30] <gullstad> ikonia: Same MySQL user though.
[18:30] <binarical-app> ’╗┐|Lee|: please use mad wifi. it will make your life alot easyer. the application itself isnt very large, you can put it on a usb stick if you want
[18:31] <ikonia> gullstad: that shouldn't be a problem. Connect to both databases, and check the config files, make sure they are both using the different databases.
[18:31] <dury> Jack_Sparrow: got it
[18:31] <mrslow__> haha, the laptop has a scroll wheel by the latch and trackpad, just wondering if there would be drivers for it
[18:31] <gullstad> ikonia: Sec.
[18:31] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[18:31] <ikonia> binarical-app: why are you being so awkward
[18:31] <ikonia> binarical-app: he said he can only use a cd
[18:31] <dury> Jack_Sparrow: thanks
[18:31] <Ollie> Alright, going to try changing BOIS, can I totally much up my computer by doing it?
[18:31] <ikonia> binarical-app: what is the difference of putting a driver or madwifi on a cdrom
[18:31] <Jack_Sparrow> dury, add whatever you need back into it..
[18:31] <gullstad> ikonia: Yup. Two databases whit diffrent name. Built exactly the same.
[18:31] <binarical-app> im sorry ’╗┐ikonia, i was only trying to help
[18:32] <ChaosParser> mrslow_: Model?
[18:32] <ikonia> binarical-app: your just making nonsense comments
[18:32] <|Lee|> Is build-essential installed on Ubuntu server by default?
[18:32] <ikonia> binarical-app: and you did with the qmail issue
[18:32] <ikonia> |Lee|: no
[18:32] <Ollie> slart:Can I do anything wrong by changing BOIS?
[18:32] <h4wk> |Lee| no
[18:32] <mrslow__> ChaosParser: PCG-GRS515SP
[18:32] <dury> Jack_Sparrow: that's what I'm doing
[18:32] <|Lee|> ikonia: What about linux-headers-'uname -r'?
[18:32] <ikonia> |Lee|: no
[18:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Ollie, NOt as long as you are only changing the boot sequence
[18:32] <gullstad> ikonia: Exept the other (new one) is smaller. As expected. So they are not cloned.
[18:32] <ikonia> gullstad: ok, so what is the location of the two different torrent flux installs ?
[18:32] <finek> !fakeroot
[18:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fakeroot - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:32] <Slart> Ollie: not if you use the regular BIOS setup thingy.. well. you don't want to click around just to try things out.. but changing boot order won't mess things up
[18:33] <dury> Jack_Sparrow: the trash
[18:33] <finek> what is fakeroot?
[18:33] <Ollie> Ok, cheers guys!
[18:33] <gullstad> ikonia: /var/www/torrentflux and /var/www/mgwtorrent
[18:33] <|Lee|> ikonia: Damn, I'll need to get those and another package on to it, but then I found a tutorial on the Ubuntu forums ikonia.
[18:33] <|Lee|> I gotta go
[18:33] <Ollie> Hopefully see you, when I in Ubuntu!!
[18:33] <Slart> Ollie: and there's usually a "Reset to defaults" option somewhere in there
[18:33] <binarical-app> ’╗┐ikonia: there are simple ways to do things, as well as complicated ones. it really is a matter of opinion
[18:33] <Ollie> Oh right, ta!
[18:33] <dury> Jack_Sparrow: the four different desktops
[18:34] <gullstad> ikonia: Think server reboot could have done it?
[18:34] <ikonia> binarical-app but what you are suggesting was no easier than putting a precompiled driver that is MEANT for linux on a cd, than putting a madwifi package on a cd that is not MEANT for linux
[18:34] <ikonia> gullstad: nah
[18:34] <ikonia> gullstad: it looks like they are still using the sambe db
[18:34] <ikonia> gullstad: how did you do the 2 installs ?
[18:34] <dury> and to show the desktop
[18:34] <Jack_Sparrow> dury, THey are named something odd,, task or desktop switcher.. one sec
[18:34] <h4wk> ikonia, still coming up with Not loading nvidia module; note used in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[18:34] <ikonia> h4wk: sudo modprobe nvidia ?
[18:34] <siq> I'm having a problem with pptp VPN, I need help so i can do work, can anyone help?
[18:35] <gullstad> ikonia: One of them I installed a long time ago, but basiblt I just moved the html folder into a suited /var/www/folder and ran the setup.php on both.
[18:35] <h4wk> ikonia thats what im doing
[18:35] <ChaosParser> mrslow_: Try to use it a few times, then grab the output of cat /proc/bus/input/devices
[18:35] <binarical-app> ’╗┐ikonia: in the short term, yes you are correct, however in my personal experiance using ndiswrapper was alot more of a headache , then madwifi is.
[18:35] <ikonia> gullstad: thats why they are seeing the same
[18:35] <ikonia> gullstad: they are still using the same db
[18:35] <gullstad> ikonia: I figured it out. Server is worki'n fine. Just a STUPID misstake by me :p
[18:36] <ikonia> binarical-app: he was using NEITHER !
[18:36] <finek> what is fakeroot and when can i use it?
[18:36] <Jack_Sparrow> dury, window selector          or            workspace switcher
[18:36] <binarical-app> ’╗┐ikonia: that really is a matter of opinion, and i here by drop the subject
[18:36] <ikonia> gullstad: what was it ?
[18:36] <Jack_Sparrow> dury, the last is show desktop
[18:36] <ikonia> binarical-app: he didn't want to use madwifi or ndiswapper
[18:36] <gullstad> ikonia: They are oki. But my web-browser stored one of them in cache and since they are form the same server he interperated both as one.
[18:36] <dury> got it
[18:36] <gullstad> ikonia: Just cleared cache :)
[18:36] <mrslow__> ChaosParser: ok, I'm fairly new to the whole Linux scene but I'm a confident PC user ;) how do i go about that?
[18:36] <ikonia> gullstad: ahhhhhh
[18:36] <dury> thanks
[18:36] <ikonia> gullstad: good call
[18:36] <ikonia> gullstad: well found
[18:36] <kotka_zla> server irc.omega.bg
[18:37] <dury> got it all thanks
[18:37] <gullstad> ikonia: Thanks. You been at good help. I love you :)
[18:37] <ChaosParser> mrslow_: Open a terminal, type cat /proc/bus/input/devices and press enter
[18:37] <finek> kotka_zla, nie spamuj ;D
[18:37] <ChaosParser> mrslow_: Then post the output in pastebin
[18:37] <mrslow__> aha, that easy
[18:37] <ChaosParser> !pastebin

[18:37] <Jack_Sparrow> dury.. just dont do it again. :)
[18:38] <gullstad> ikonia: I'll problt be back though. Since I tend to mess things up :)
[18:38] <ikonia> gullstad: don't worry, every one makes mistakes
[18:39] <h4wk> ikonia: Still getting the same error and using sudo modprobe nvidia
[18:39] <gullstad> ikonia: Not like mine :P My last install i managed to make all accounts whitout root prevliges :P
[18:39] <ikonia> h4wk: sudo insmod nvidia.ko
[18:40] <h4wk> ikonia no such file or dir
[18:40] <ikonia> h4wk: you'll have to go into /lib/$kernel/modules
[18:40] <mrslow__> ChaosParser: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/63205/
[18:40] <ikonia> K4k: then I think it's "nvidia" under that
[18:40] <mrslow__> sorry it took me a while
[18:40] <ikonia> h4wk: or maybe video
[18:41] <ikonia> h4wk: /lib/modules/$kernel sorry

[18:43] <dts> my firefox doesn't start anymore. I reinstalled it in synaptic and deleted my .mozilla directory. What else could i do to reset it?
[18:43] <dury> Jack_Sparrow: somebody else did it
[18:44] <noodlesgc> dts open a terminal and type firefox and tell us what error message you get
[18:44] <h4wk> ikonia: done.. modprobe now?
[18:44] <ikonia> h4wk: what happened ?
[18:44] <ikonia> h4wk: after the apt-get
[18:45] <h4wk> ikonia: it installed
[18:45] <murlidhar> kusanagi_, does sound work in youtube
[18:45] <ikonia> h4wk: oooh something must have happened on the re-install
[18:45] <ikonia> h4wk: if you reboot now it should sort it's self out
[18:45] <h4wk> so bak in the reconfig
[18:45] <kusanagi_> yes murlidhar
[18:45] <dury> Jack_Sparrow:: really appreciate your support :)
[18:45] <dury> Jack_Sparrow:: believe me
[18:46] <h4wk> ikonia: its just booting up
[18:46] <dts> noodlesgc: i did "firefox -safe-mode" and an initial screen came up asking me what to do and i clicked reset to defaults,etc. Then it asked me to restore session or to start new and i clicked new session. Then nothing happens
[18:46] <dury> bbl
[18:46] <noodlesgc> dts try sudo dpkg-reconfigure firefox
[18:46] <dts> noodlesgc: now it's just hanging there, no firefox opening
[18:46] <daire> !res
[18:46] <murlidhar> kusanagi_, u said u had volumes up .  in the application . or in the volume tray?

[18:47] <QuickGold> If I'm moving my Ubuntu web server and I want to have it reflect the new IP address it receives, what setting(s) do I need to change (using CLI)?
[18:47] <BizMan2008> anyone know of any ssh settings that would cause a vnc connection through putty to never fully connect?
[18:47] <simplexio> kusanagi_: in terminal type amixer, and set volumes up from there, and i mean every volume up, wouldnt be first time that its problem
[18:47] <kusanagi_> murlidhar,  both... even the spekers
[18:48] <mrslow__> ChaosParser: did you get the pastebin?
[18:48] <kusanagi_> i did it simplexio ... evn the mic
[18:48] <dts> noodlesgc: no luck
[18:48] <murlidhar> kusanagi_, strange
[18:48] <kusanagi_> i set up both alsa and oss
[18:49] <noodlesgc> dts open gnome-terminal and look for any firefox processes and kill them
[18:49] <noodlesgc> dts i meant gnome-system-monitor
[18:49] <murlidhar> kusanagi_, i dunno but there might a command to reset the whole sound settings
[18:49] <dts> noodlesgc: did that already, restarted too
[18:49] <unop> QuickGold, it's hard to know what you really want from that question there.
[18:50] <unop> QuickGold, you want to know how to change/set an IP address using the CLI?
[18:50] <murlidhar> kusanagi_, did it suddenly stopped working
[18:50] <noodlesgc> dts is this the firefox from the repositories? are you on Hardy or Gutsy?
[18:50] <kusanagi_> no, it never worked on vlc
[18:50] <kusanagi_> and i cannot select any device in the program either murlidhar
[18:50] <QuickGold> unop: The box will automatically get the IP address.  What I guess I'm asking, is there something I need to change so my web server will respond to the new IP address instead of the previous IP address?
[18:50] <h4wk> ikonia
[18:51] <h4wk> Many thanks all working :D <3
[18:51] <kusanagi_> is there any larger ubuntu faq explaining mor ubuntu basics things than the official faq?
[18:51] <murlidhar> kusanagi_, are u able to change the devices
[18:51] <dts> noodlesgc: yea it is, i'm on gutsy
[18:51] <kusanagi_> mmm how to change the devices?
[18:51] <murlidhar> kusanagi_, alsa mixers to oss mixers
[18:51] <dts> noodlesgc: heh, just instaled firefox3
[18:51] <hischild> kusanagi_, google for the ubuntu training wiki
[18:51] <dts> i gues that works well enough
[18:51] <unop> QuickGold, well, that really depends on how you configured apache - and servers really shouldn't have IP addresses that are variable, it's best to assign them static ones
[18:51] <h4wk> ikonia: oh shit i did reconfig now all i get when i restatt is a no signal
[18:51] <kusanagi_> i think i only can select the drivers sets from the try but anything else murlidhar
[18:51] <h4wk> on my monitor
[18:51] <daire> !upgrade
[18:51] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[18:52] <kusanagi_> i tried both murlidhar
[18:52] <noodlesgc> dts, so firefox3 from the repository?
[18:52] <Teo-> how can i add more workspaces on ubuntu 7.10 ??
[18:52] <MrObvious> !cron
[18:52] <ubotu> cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm
[18:52] <tyler> Is there anyway to make the taskbar look diffrent?

[19:00] <legend2440> !pie
[19:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pie - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[19:00] <legend2440> ok
[19:01] <fangorious> what's the best way to have something run at boot as a regular user?
[19:01] <backslash> simplexio: okay, thank you very much bro!
[19:01] <backslash> cya
[19:01] <noodlesgc> fangorious add it in system->preferences->sessions
[19:02] <froglet> or, how do i get firefox and other apps to use kpdf instead of evince?
[19:02] <fangorious> noodlesgc: wouldn't that just cover something launching when they log into gnome? I need it to run when the system boots
[19:02] <MasterShrak> fangorious add your command to /etc/rc.local (i think thats what it is in ubuntu)
[19:02] <MmmPiGood> MasterShrak: isn't that run as root though?
[19:02] <fangorious> MasterShrak: won't that run it as root then?
[19:03] <MasterShrak> yes, i was not aware that it didnt need to be, how about: su -c <command> <user>
[19:03] <unop> sudo better
[19:03] <unop> sudo -u user COMMAND
[19:03] <hischild> MasterShrak, isn't it the other way around? sudo su -c user command?
[19:03] <murlidhar> froglet, in firefox go to edit>preferences>applications
[19:04] <unop> fangorious, you can use a cronjob - with the @reboot directive
[19:04] <froglet> murlidhar: ok, and how about when i double click in nautilus?
[19:04] <combo> hi, can someone tell me how can i logout so i can change session from fluxbox to KDE ??
[19:04] <MmmPiGood> one last probe for anyone that knows something about wizardpen...
[19:04] <fangorious> unop: ah! I knew there was something like that, just couldn't remember the details. Thanks
[19:05] <tyler> Can I get msn on Ubuntu like 9.0?
[19:05] <Pelo> combo, ctrl alt backspace should do it
[19:05] <noodlesgc> combo System->Quit... ?
