[13:53] <onca> What are the main differences among partition types?
[13:54] <linuxrevolution> hi
[13:54] <onca> I am not sure if I should user Reiser FS or ext3..
[13:54] <linuxrevolution> please help me to detect a monitor
[13:54] <linuxrevolution> samsun 17 but ubuntu says samsung 16!!
[13:54] <minche> blinking videos problem =(
[13:54] <aboSamoor> Marfi: This is the page of the printer. I can not map mine to any driver available in the database http://www.konicaeurope.com/product/office/7222.shtml
[13:54] <Marfi> aboSamoor, do you have the windows driver for the disk?
[13:55] <Kartagis> does ubuntu have a downloader which supports username and password like flashget?
[13:55] <Marfi> aboSamoor, I used to work at a real estate with one of those
[13:55] <minche> pleeeeeeeeease
[13:56] <filipov> hi
[13:56] <ikonia> minche: please just ask your question and wait for a response
[13:56] <linuxrevolution> yoohoo how can I detect my monitor???
[13:56] <Marfi> linuxrevolution, plug it in?
[13:56] <erUSUL> onca: use ext3... reiser is basically fading into nonexistence
[13:57] <onca> erUSUL, ok
[13:57] <mo0se> can you not make commands like this
[13:57] <onca> erUSUL, should I use ext2 for my boot partition?
[13:57] <aboSamoor> Marfi: I installed the windows drivers. I don't know to do with them
[13:57] <erUSUL> onca: indiferent imho
[13:57] <mo0se> mysqldump -u root --password=pass drupaldb > "/home/Backups/`date +%x`/drupaldb.sql"
[13:57] <linuxrevolution> Marfi: what?
[13:57] <mo0se> whats wrong wiht ht?
[13:57] <desady> Hello guys out there!
[13:57] <ikonia> mo0se: -d $database
[13:57] <filipov> ive got a question about how to replace the Mic input with Line-out. My problem is that my original Line-out is broken.. In windows, theres a small application called "Realtek HD audio manager", and it does the magic.. But I'd like to do the same in Linux.
[13:58] <Marfi> aboSamoor, I'm going through the add printer scren, and there is an option to add a .ppd , which is "post script printer description flies can often be found on the driver disk that comes with the printer. For postScript printers they are often part of the windows driver"
[13:58] <ikonia> mo0se: maybe -D $database
[13:58] <Marfi> linuxrevolution, can't see the monitor? Plug it in. Make sure the power cable is plugged in
[13:58] <num1fng> does any know why in open office it is adding dots every time I hit the space bar or a weird symbol when i hit the return key
[13:58] <linuxrevolution> marfi: I can use it but it's 17 and ubuntu says it's 16!
[13:59] <aboSamoor> Marfi: what does this mean ?!
[13:59] <[Matt]> anyone know anything about installing WoW under linux? specifically when im trying to install under wine and get to the EULA tha ceept button is greyed out even after i scroll to the bottom?
[13:59] <desady> can anyone help me share folders on networks in ubuntu
[13:59] <[Matt]> accept*
[13:59] <Travis-42> is there a difference between running "sudo -u user" and "sudo su user".  I'm trying to understand a init.d script which uses the latter.
[13:59] <mo0se> ikonia: can you do "mkdir /home/Backups/`date +%x`/" ???
[13:59] <mo0se> it doesnt seem to work
[13:59] <ikonia> mo0se: mkdir -p
[13:59] <Marfi> aboSamoor, from what I have seen, a .ppd is a sort of driver file for the printer. It's like ndiswrapper + wireless cards, but for the printer.
[13:59] <ikonia> mo0se: mkdir -p /home/Backups/`date +%x`
[13:59] <Marfi> aboSamoor, It lets you use the windows driver for the printer
[14:00] <Kryzler> hey
[14:00] <[Matt]> anyone?
[14:00] <fader> num1fng: Go to Tools - Options - OpenOffice.org Writer - Formatting Aids and uncheck "Paragraph end" and "Spaces"
[14:00] <Kryzler> my ubuntu grub loader doesn't work properly
[14:00] <oskar-> num1fng, that are typography related hints to know, where the space between types comes from
[14:00] <linuxrevolution> :-(
[14:00] <Kryzler> How do I fix this?
[14:01] <Kryzler> I need help
[14:01] <ikonia> Kryzler: explain the problem
[14:01] <fader> num1fng: (And possibly "breaks" if it's checked as well)
[14:01] <Marfi> aboSamoor, check the driver disk, and see if there is a .ppd file there. That should do it for ya. =)
[14:01] <mo0se> ikonia: shit, now it creates home/Backups/02/19/2009... any way to even make that 02192009/ ??
[14:01] <Kryzler> basically, I installed openSUSE just to try it out, and when I select Ubuntu, it loads the Ubuntu grub, and then when I try to load anything from there, it all goes ka-put
[14:01] <oskar-> Kryzler, how can we know? or am i missing the line with the details? ;)
[14:01] <ikonia> mo0se: please control your language
[14:01] <ikonia> Kryzler: define ka-put - please be exact
[14:02] <mo0se> my bad didn't realize it was  rule here.
[14:02] <linuxrevolution> marfi: I click detect monitor but nothing happens
[14:02] <ikonia> mo0se: mand date
[14:02] <freegoo> guys i really need help, i tryed mounting with sudo. but when i try and create a file i get the read only error
[14:02] <Marfi> linuxrevolution, is it plugged in? Is there power going to the monitor?
[14:02] <ikonia> mo0se: sorry "man date" look at +d+m+y
[14:02] <freegoo> i check mount. and it says RW
[14:02] <Kryzler> ka-put: colloquial English term derived from the Dutch "kapot" which means "broken"
[14:02] <num1fng> Fader : Thx I have been fighting with that for a while.
[14:02] <linuxrevolution> Marfi: yes!
[14:02] <ikonia> Kryzler: how do you know its broken, I mean explain the error
[14:02] <freegoo> "/dev/sdb3 on /media/dfddrive type hfsplus (rw)"
[14:02] <fader> num1fng: no problem :)
[14:02] <oskar-> Kryzler, details, please!
[14:02] <Kryzler> I get Error 15
[14:03] <ikonia> !grub > Kryzler
[14:03] <Marfi> linuxrevolution, Simple problems first, then more difficult fixes. ;) What type of videocard are you using?
[14:03] <Kryzler> and it says it can't find anything
[14:03] <freegoo> i also tryed chmod. but again said read only file system. any idea guys?
[14:03] <Marfi> linuxrevolution, Can you plug it into the main monitor slot, and it work? You may need to reboot if you do it like this
[14:04] <ikonia> !grub > Kryzler
[14:04] <odinsbane> I'm using wpa_supplicant and it works fine, but lately I will become disconnected from the internet and wpa_supplicant just says associated with ... over and over.
[14:04] <freegoo> seriously out of ideas here guys. can anyone help
[14:04] <linuxrevolution> marfi: I have an Asus p5kpl and it has an onboard card
[14:05] <Marfi> linuxrevolution, so are you using 1 monitor or 2?
[14:05] <linuxrevolution> marfi: 1
[14:05] <freegoo> i also tryed chmod. but again said read only file system. seriously out of ideas. can anyone help?????
[14:05] <Marfi> linuxrevolution, you may need to add a modeline to the xorg.conf file for the monitor. Do a google search for "xorg modeline <monitor model>"
[14:06] <Marfi> freegoo, what are you trying to do?
[14:06] <ikonia> freegoo: does hfs have write support in ubuntu ?
[14:06] <linuxrevolution> marfi: thanx a lot mate
[14:06] <Marfi> linuxrevolution, np. =)
[14:06] <ikonia> freegoo: as in - is wrie functionaity a supported feature
[14:07] <Marfi> freegoo, if your using HFS...the only way that Linux has write support to it is if it is NOT journaled
[14:07] <freegoo> ikonia: how do i check if write-support is enabled. is there a libery w should download
[14:07] <ikonia> freegoo: check Marfi comment - Marfi seems clued in on it
[14:08] <ikonia> Marfi: nice find
[14:08] <bazhang> !info hfsplus
[14:09] <Marfi> ikonia, freegoo My fiance's Mac HDD crashed, 60 gigs of her software gone. So I spent 3 days in Linux + HFS. =)
[14:09] <vegombrei> ive finally got a chance to upgrade my pc. i wanna go with ubuntu. but i have a few questions. does it have a 64 bit version? whats the difference? im planning on getting a high end gaming config, does ubuntu support all the latest high end mother boards and graphics card and sound etc? please advise ..
[14:09] <Marfi> ikonia, was able to pull it off, though
[14:09] <ikonia> Marfi: good info to know
[14:09] <frankS2> how can i show the changelog for packages?
[14:09] <[Matt]> vego yes therea a 64bit edition
[14:09] <Dr_willis> !hardware | vegombrei
[14:09] <frankS2> that is availibe via apt-get dist-upgrade
[14:09] <Marfi> vegombrei, yes, it has 64 bit. Runs good, imo. Ubuntu should support it, and if you get a video card, GO NVIDIA!
[14:10] <Dr_willis> vegombrei,  often with linux - its not  idea to get 'the latest and greatest hardware'  the stuff thats been out for some time will most likely have better support.
[14:10] <KDB9000> Need help mounting an NTFS drive, after it has been on a windows machine and then I use it on my Ubuntu system, it doesn't auto mount. I need to mount it manually using the force command. Is there a way around this so it will mount it with the force command or something like that? NTFS-config does not see the hard drive
[14:10] <freegoo> Marfi: thanks alot. so if i use hfs non journaled it should all be fine?
[14:11] <vegombrei> Marfi: i was actually thinking of the new radeon. you sure NVIDIA is the way to go for ubuntu?
[14:11] <Marfi> freegoo, It should be fine...but I would hiiiighly recommend not to. Are you looking for a file system to write back and forth between a mac and Ubuntu?
[14:12] <[Matt]> i think my system might be fubar :<
[14:12] <mercutio22> vegombrei> get nVidia. It has better linux support
[14:12] <Marfi> vegombrei, Nvidia has been giving drivers out for Linux for more than 8 years. ATI just opened up their drivers. ANd yes, Nvidia is the way to go for Linux. You will be cussing linux up one side and down the other if you get ATI
[14:12] <vegombrei> Dr_willis: i agree sir, however when im assembling a new pc i'd rather get the latest because its gonna get obsolete in a year anyway the way computer tech is progressing today
[14:12] <freegoo> Marfi: the drive is my ipod, so its installed on mac hfs+. ideal support would be both wmac and linux
[14:12] <linux_guy> [Matt], you'll have to change your nick, thats my first name
[14:12] <creek23_> hi, how do i increase the alloted size for /tmp
[14:12] <ikonia> creek23_: you need to resize the partition
[14:12] <linux_guy> [Matt], type /nick Wilbur
[14:13] <lolwtfmynickismy> :o
[14:13] <ikonia> linux_guy: he can have whatever nick he wants - please don't request that
[14:13] <linux_guy> can you set up the edubuntu repos in ubuntu
[14:13] <Dr_willis> vegombrei,  when building a new pc  - i get whats the most value for the $$ then save the rest of the $$ for  the NEXT pc.. or slowly upgrade the hardware with the $$ i saved..
[14:13] <linux_guy> ikonia, im just kidding
[14:13] <Marfi> freegoo, find a windows computer, and just make it a winpod. I'm pretty sure it installs it as fat32, which can be read by all 3
[14:13] <linux_guy> <insert joke here>
[14:13] <pos69sum> i have a broadcom bcm430 wireless card in my dell latitude laptop - i got it to work using fwcutter but now it just stopped working
[14:14] <Dr_willis> vegombrei,  its hard to justify a $500 video card.. when it will become $200 in 4 mo. :)
[14:14] <lolwtfmynickismy> what does it mean when i can use up to 3 sticks of ram in any configuration on my motherboard but as soon as i try and use all 4 my system refuses to post???
[14:14] <creek23_> typing df -h displays that only 1MB is alloted ---> overflow              1.0M   64K  960K   7% /tmp
[14:14] <pos69sum> i think it was after i applied system updates yesterday
[14:14] <creek23_> * overflow              1.0M   64K  960K   7% /tmp
[14:14] <freegoo> Marfi: yer i guess, but i hate caving into m$ bullshit just for multi client support
[14:14] <Marfi> Adios everyone
[14:14] <pos69sum> does anyone know why that would happen?
[14:14] <lolwtfmynickismy> and now when tryint to re-install windows i bluescreen
[14:14] <lolwtfmynickismy> :<
[14:14] <vegombrei> Marfi: hmm i think ill keep that in mind make sure i get nvidia
[14:14] <lolwtfmynickismy> i think mt motherboard might be slightly shafted :<
[14:14] <Dr_willis> vegombrei,  i would definatly go Nvidia for the video card at least. :)
[14:15] <vegombrei> Dr_willis: i agree, it hurts,
[14:15] <kjs> anyone know a decent web designer?
[14:15] <ikonia> kjs: as in an application ?
[14:15] <lolwtfmynickismy> what does it mean when i can use up to 3 sticks of ram in any configuration on my motherboard but as soon as i try and use all 4 my system refuses to post???
[14:15] <kjs> I need a small site making for my company
[14:15] <lolwtfmynickismy> duff memory controller on motherboard?
[14:15] <ikonia> kjs: you have been here enough to know the channel topic
[14:15] <ikonia> kjs: why are you asking in an ubuntu support channel
[14:15] <linux_guy> pos69sum, paste lshw -C network
[14:16] <kjs> thought there might be some web designers knocking around in here...
[14:16] <ikonia> kjs: you know the topic
[14:16] <linux_guy> ikonia, you're on a roll today
[14:17] <linux_guy> hey, can an ubuntu user use the edubuntu repos?
[14:17] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, how much ram?
[14:17] <vegombrei> Dr_willis: but in my case i get my company to get me one for my home. thats where i use ubuntu actually im learning linux. catch is they will buy me whatever pc i wish but just once a year. so in my case its better to go flat out and then stay putt for the next 3 yrs. what say you
[14:17] <lolwtfmynickismy> all 1Gb ram sticks
[14:17] <lolwtfmynickismy> can use 3gb
[14:17] <pos69sum> linux_guy - i can't cos i don't have networking on it right now
[14:17] <AdamS42> Hello. Can I just ignore "warning /etc/init.d/myscript missing LSB style header..." when running update-rc.d? Did it fix itself?
[14:17] <lolwtfmynickismy> but as soon as the 4th dgoes in it wont post
[14:17] <pos69sum> i was never able to get wired interface working
[14:18] <j_aroslav> hi guys, i've just installed ubuntu - I can not see my second windows disk, what is the trick to see it?
[14:18] <lolwtfmynickismy> also... im using ubuntu right now because i think somethings wrong elsewhere
[14:18] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, I am not sure why it won't post (last one might be a bad stick) but i think Ubuntu has a 4 GB limit unless you are using 64-bit (could be wrong on this). have you swapped out one of the working ons with the 4th?
[14:18] <marathon> hello what's .local can i erase it?
[14:18] <lolwtfmynickismy> using 64bit
[14:19] <lolwtfmynickismy> also using 64bit windows
[14:19] <lolwtfmynickismy> tested all sticks also in memtest
[14:19] <lolwtfmynickismy> theyre fine
[14:19] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, alright, so the last stick does work. what is the motherboard?
[14:19] <creek23> ikonia: i just freed 600MB. i was thinking if i could allot some of those to the /tmp ?
[14:19] <lolwtfmynickismy> swapped them out also trying uindividual ones
[14:20] <lolwtfmynickismy> nvidia 650 sli
[14:20] <dayo_> marathon: don't delete it
[14:20] <vegombrei> Dr_willis: my hardware guy told me about this new ram and solid state harddrives and water cooling systems that makes your pc run so quiet its not funny. about the ram, he told me he can get me 16 gb of ram, it kinda gave me a hard on hehehe i gotta get it bro
[14:20] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, nvidia makes motherboards now?
[14:20] <marathon> ok but is it used for what?
[14:20] <lolwtfmynickismy> nforce
[14:20] <marathon> there is a ./local/share/Trash
[14:20] <lolwtfmynickismy> its an intel nforce basically
[14:20] <oCean_> lolwtfmynickismy: try to keep the problem description (and your actions so far) on one line.
[14:20] <marathon> can i remove the Trash?
[14:21] <Kartagis> does ubuntu have a downloader which supports username and password like flashget?
[14:21] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, who makes the board though (MSI, AUSU, Intel, etc... )
[14:21] <Silverwing> marathon, do you have a trash applet around on your desktop?
[14:22] <j_aroslav> anybody could help me please?
[14:22] <Myrtti> Kartagis: this'll sound bad, but yes. wget. there is a graphical frontend for it called gwget, but I'm not sure how good it is.
[14:22] <marathon> in the path ./local/share there is a subfolder Trash
[14:22] <marathon> i would like to remove it
[14:22] <lolwtfmynickismy> Asus p5n-e iirc
[14:22] <marathon> but i don't know why there is a Trash folder in ./local/share
[14:22] <Silverwing> marathon, I'd suggest to backup the files there and give it a try
[14:23] <Machin> hi!
[14:23] <marathon> ok
[14:23] <Silverwing> hi
[14:24] <rakgenius> anybody have idea abt smbtorture
[14:24] <lolwtfmynickismy> also... im using ubuntu right now because i think somethings wrong elsewhere.  previous to today i had some serious issues with my vid card.  in certain situations with heavy load it would almost freeze. like when playing WoW and soemthing requiring a heavy load would happen my FPS would drop to around 1 frame every 4-8 seconds :P
[14:24] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, alright, the board can hold 8 GB of RAM so that is good
[14:24] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, are you having a ram problem or a graphic card problem?
[14:25] <lolwtfmynickismy> not altogether sure
[14:25] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, you said you couldn't post with 4 GB of RAM right?
[14:25] <lolwtfmynickismy> yes
[14:25] <vegombrei> lolwtfmynickismy: what graphics card do you have ?
[14:25] <lolwtfmynickismy> 4850 ati
[14:26] <mo0se> any way to stop a shell script from requiring you to press enter to confirm it completed?
[14:26] <vegombrei> lolwtfmynickismy: someone just told me ubuntu and ati arent that good friends .. they like nvidia better
[14:26] <pos69sum> was there some type of system update yesterday that would cause broadcom wireless cards from working?
[14:26] <lolwtfmynickismy> ye
[14:26] <Dimensions> Hi not sure where to ask this question ... but i have a dedicated server with Ubuntu ... i would like to access its /var/www via its ip ... i have installed it phpmyadmin on it via ssh and can access phpmyadmin login but nothing else ... how do i access its /var/www via its ip ?
[14:26] <pos69sum> would cause broadcom wireless cards to stop working i mean
[14:26] <Kartagis> Myrtti, do you know where username and password are set?
[14:26] <rakgenius> any1 knows abt smbtorture?
[14:27] <Myrtti> Kartagis: there's several options atleast in the commandline version for entering usernames and passwrds
[14:27] <Kartagis> Dimensions, set apache's DocumentRoot
[14:27] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, why are you using an ATi card in a SLi motherboard?
[14:27] <Dimensions> Kartagis: DocumentRoot is set to /var/www already ...
[14:27] <Myrtti> Kartagis: I'm sure --help will tell you more
[14:28] <Silverwing> pos69sum, I have a broadcom chipset (linksys card) and it's all working fine.. Not sure if my card is the same as yours though
[14:28] <oCean_> Dimensions: what is the error you get
[14:28] <Dimensions> oCean_:  the error is "Not Found" the requested / is not found on this server
[14:28] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, nevermind. I thought there might be a problem right there but it would still work.
[14:29] <lolwtfmynickismy> im sat here under ubuntu with an ati card in however...  also come to think of it after installing linux prevously under the program notifications at the top right corner i used to get the ATI driver notification (if you know what i mean) but i dont get that now
[14:29] <ibuclaw> mo0se, which shell script would that be?
[14:29] <oCean_> Dimensions: in your DocumentRoot, there is no index file (e.g. index.html or index.php), so if you just type http://<ipaddress> it returns that error
[14:30] <mo0se> ibuclaw: it's a custom backup cron i wrote
[14:30] <oCean_> Dimensions: do you have a subdir in /var/www ? Some application
[14:30] <mo0se> but at the end of running it makes you press enter to quit
[14:30] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, if you are using ATi, you should use the restricted drivers. for gnome it is in System > Administration > Hardware Drivers
[14:30] <lolwtfmynickismy> nothing appears in the box
[14:30] <Silverwing> moOse, you could try 'echo yourpassword | yourscript'
[14:31] <ibuclaw> Silverwing, I don't think its a password issue :s
[14:31] <Dimensions> oCean_: i have just an index file in /var/www and there is a folder with another test index.html too
[14:31] <Silverwing> ibuclaw, thought it was.. :p never mind
[14:31] <ibuclaw> :þ
[14:31] <ibuclaw> mo0se, can you post the script into a pastebin for analysis?
[14:32] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, open a terminal and type lspci | grep vga and let me know what you get
[14:32] <mo0se> i think i got it actually... just echoed the keypress for enter hah
[14:32] <oCean_> Dimensions: and http://<ip>/index.html (explicitly) also returns the same error?
[14:32] <Dimensions> yes oCean_
[14:32] <oCean_> Dimensions: see what /var/log/apach2/error_log says
[14:32] <Dimensions> same error with that too
[14:32] <ibuclaw> I'm just curious what command you are using that is asking to press enter....
[14:32] <mo0se> ibuclaw: my last problem is i'm writing success to a log file, echo overwrites everything, is there a way to append it to the end of the doc?
[14:33] <mo0se> ibuclaw: the last command is...
[14:33] <mo0se> tar

[14:33] <Pici> mo0se: echo 'foo' >> bar  will append to the end of bar
[14:33] <oCean_> Dimensions: it seems that your DocRoot is not correctly configured
[14:34] <ibuclaw> mo0se, on your "echo overwrites everything" use:  echo "Success" >> /var/log/file.log
[14:34] <oCean_> Dimensions: go check the settings in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
[14:34] <KDB9000> I need some help with an NTFS hard drive that I use between my windows and Ubuntu. Ubuntu doesn't like to mount it after I have had it plugged into windows and I need to type the mount command manually. anyway to fix this?
[14:34] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, thats not good. what kind of card is it?
[14:34] <oCean_> Dimensions: apache expects the root to be at /htdocs, not /var/www
[14:35] <Dimensions> oCean_:  restarting apache2 gives this warning too "[warn] NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts" and ... waiting apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for localhost.localdomai
[14:35] <lolwtfmynickismy> kind??  radeon HD 4850 thats as much as i know
[14:35] <KDB9000> oCean_, the default is /var/www
[14:35] <oCean_> KDB9000: not in Demensions case, see his error
[14:36] <oCean_> Dimensions: well it seems the apache config is a little off...
[14:36] <Dimensions> oCean_:  site-enable folder is empty
[14:36] <z1pp3r> On a fresh 8.10 install, my wireless (pci card, not a laptop) card was detected and it shows my wireless network. However, whenever i connect to the network the system crashes. Cant even ctrl+alt+F2 to cli. Any ideas?
[14:36] <KDB9000> oCean_, but did he change it to that? I know in all the ubuntu servers i set up with apache2 it is always been defaulted to /var/www
[14:37] <Myrtti> Dimensions: localhost.localdomain? surely it's subdomain.localhost?
[14:37] <oCean_> Dimensions: see in /etc/apache2/sites-available/ if there is a file called "default"
[14:37] <big_ghost> i just installed kubuntu 5.04 is hter any way i can update to 8.10 alternative installlation disk ppc
[14:37] <pumpkin_> hi. I want to install ubuntu 8.10 onto a usb stick. The HD is broken, the laptop can boot from USB. Any special details to think about? Any tutorials (not from usb but to usb)
[14:37] <Myrtti> big_ghost: no.
[14:37] <Dimensions> oCean_ that file is in site-enabled
[14:38] <big_ghost> so what would i have to do to update to 8.10 ?
[14:38] <big_ghost> ppc version
[14:38] <Silverwing> pumpkin, Is your usb-stick large enough? I guess that's all you have to think about :D
[14:38] <Dimensions> KDB9000: that default the ISP guys have given me ...
[14:38] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy,  I am not sure why it is seeing it as unknown, there could be a problem with the card. do you have the power hooked up to it and is your power supply able to handle it?
[14:38] <oCean_> Dimensions: site-enabled folder was *empty* you said. site-available has default file?
[14:38] <Mean_Admin> is there any simple app that sends an email if a selected HDD fails ?
[14:38] <e3co> big_ghost:  sudo update-manager -d
[14:38] <lolwtfmynickismy> story so far... relatively old motherboard that ive dug out.  cant use a full 4 memory slots or no post just a blank screen when i turn on.  my memory is fine however.  I also had a few graphical issues that ive tried to fix.  Now when it try and boot to windows i blue screen just after the windows loading screen.  Would i be right in suspecting a motherboard issue?
[14:38] <pumpkin_> Silverwing, 16GB ... i need a desktop and a java install.
[14:38] <Myrtti> e3co: did you see what he's on now?
[14:38] <big_ghost> ok thanks
[14:39] <e3co> sorry I didn't
[14:39] <jmleong> hi guys
[14:39] <Silverwing> pumpkin, that should go fine. You could even do a full installation on a 16GB stick.
[14:39] <jmleong> can i get help from here?
[14:39] <e3co> big_ghost:  what are you using for an os?
[14:39] <jmleong> or i have to go other place?
[14:39] <Dimensions> yes oCean_  thats correct that default file is in site-available ... while site-enabled folder is empty
[14:39] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, when you tested the memory, did you test out all the slots?
[14:39] <lolwtfmynickismy> KDB9000: yes it does have the power supply input plugged in... and yes i have a modular 620w PSU
[14:39] <pumpkin_> Silverwing, does the bootloader install fine on usb ?
[14:39] <oCean_> Dimensions: if the site-enabled folder is empty enable, the "default" virtual host by using command "/usr/sbin/a2ensite default"
[14:40] <jmleong> i have some problem with sata dvdrom
[14:40] <lolwtfmynickismy> tested the memory modules themselves... used them all individually and in each slot
[14:40] <jmleong> my laptop is full sata
[14:40] <Silverwing> pumpkin, You have to select your usb stick in the last screen of the installation, at the 'advanced' button
[14:40] <milligan_> I have a USB to Serial converter, and it's discovered by lsusb .. Bus 006 Device 005: ID 0403:6001 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd FT232 USB-Serial (UART) IC . How can I telnet to the device I connect ?
[14:40] <oCean_> Dimensions: that will make a symlink from the default file in sites-available to a 000-default in sites-enabled.
[14:40] <Silverwing> for bootloader
[14:40] <jmleong> bye guys
[14:40] <igascream> hello all. have some problem with login via GDM . xserver simply restarted. can anybody give some advice?
[14:41] <z1pp3r> On a fresh 8.10 install, my wireless (pci card, linksys WMP110 RangePlus) card was detected and it shows my wireless network. However, whenever i try connect to the network the system crashes. Cant even ctrl+alt+F2 to cli. The network is WPA encrypted. Any ideas what could be going on?
[14:41] <oCean_> Dimensions: from the main apache2.conf this site-enabled directory is included in the config. So if the link exists, edit the default file to suit your needs, like editing the DocumentRoot
[14:41] <Silverwing> pumpkin, you could also try the create usb startup disk utility (system -> administration)
[14:41] <Dimensions> Thank you oCean_  ... its working now ...
[14:41] <oCean_> Dimensions: yay! :)
[14:41] <Dimensions> heheheh...
[14:41] <lolwtfmynickismy> KDB9000: i might also add than an old vid card that works fine also doesnt work in this PC... refuses to post also...
[14:41] <mneptok> lolwtfmynickismy: each RAM stick alone allows the machine to boot, but with 4 it dies?
[14:41] <lolwtfmynickismy> yep
[14:42] <pumpkin_> Silverwing, will try the simple version first, the second alternative later. Thanks.
[14:42] <Dimensions> :) oCean_  is the warning i receive while reloading / restarting apache of any concern ?
[14:42] <erUSUL> z1pp3r: sounds like a real "kernel panic" aka "bsod of linux". do the leds of the keyboard flash when the crash occurs?
[14:42] <mneptok> lolwtfmynickismy: probably mixed MHz frequencies.
[14:42] <Silverwing> pumpkin, the second is easier :p good luck
[14:42] <mneptok> lolwtfmynickismy: 2 100 and 2 133 or something.
[14:42] <DIFH-iceroot> !fakeraid
[14:42] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, well you mentioned it being an older board, I would try doing a bios update on it and see where that takes you. it is possible the board might have problems
[14:43] <z1pp3r> erUSUL, I'm pretty sure they dont. Is there a log file where i can find the 'dmesg' of the last boot or something? As it is, its kindda hard to figure out whats wrong
[14:43] <igascream> Some idea about how to repair GDM????
[14:43] <erUSUL> z1pp3r: /var/log/messages
[14:43] <z1pp3r> cheers
[14:44] <oCean_> Dimensions: well, the thing about no virtualhosts should be gone by now. As far as the other one concerns, I'd like to setup my webserver to know the hosts ServerName, and add that ip to the /etc/hosts file, that way apache know what it's talking about... or who :-)
[14:44] <lolwtfmynickismy> mneptok: all rams sticks are geil 1GB PC2-6400 sticks.... same MHz
[14:44] <mneptok> lolwtfmynickismy: total capacity?
[14:45] <lolwtfmynickismy> 4GB... but im using 64bit OS both win and linux
[14:45] <lolwtfmynickismy> and this mobo takes 8Gb max
[14:45] <piet44> someone knows if i can update a specific package? for example apt-get update apache2
[14:45] <mneptok> lolwtfmynickismy: check with mobo OEM
[14:45] <Dimensions> thank you oCean_  :)
[14:46] <lolwtfmynickismy> OEM?
[14:46] <oCean_> Dimensions: cheers.
[14:46] <KDB9000> lolwtfmynickismy, try doing a bios upgrade
[14:47] <lolwtfmynickismy> usedto be able to do that via windows with asus motherboard.... long time since ive ever tried a dos bios upgrade
[14:48] <burkmat> `apt-get update` checks the repos for updates, but does the GUI alert me to every single package with an available upgrade or is there some sort of qualification?
[14:49] <berriop> I have an customized ubuntu installation on my desktop PC, I want to copy/transfer the same customized ubuntu to another PC, which is the best method? create an .iso image?
[14:49] <berriop> I dont wanna mesh with the drivers
[14:50] <burkmat> piet44, I'm not 100% sure how aptitude handles updates, but running `sudo apt-get update` would probably make your GUI alert you to possible updates, and I'm fairly sure you can choose what update to install using that.
[14:50] <less> compiz says xgl is missing.. what is it for?
[14:52] <the_dark_warrio> What is the best pen drive brand for ubuntu?
[14:53] <hanslik> radioshack
[14:53] <KDB9000> I put my hard drives's info into fstab so that when I plug it in, it will get mounted automatically, but when I plugged it in I get insufficient pivileged. why? what can I do to fix this?.
[14:53] <hanslik> waaaa
[14:54] <sipior> KDB9000: do you have the "user" option for the drive in /etc/fstab?
[14:54] <letalis> KDB9000: your fstab permissions are such that a non root user doesnt have access to them
[14:54] <padi> I can't run a .pl file with my webbrowser. It always wants to download the file. The executable flag is set. What could be the reason that firefox does not execute the file?
[14:54] <CosmiChaos> how do i apply gtk-themes for superuser aplications (like synaptic). i know some work but i.e overglossed only just works for the user, all superuseraplications still in clearlooks, sudo gtk-theme-switch2 didnt work either, please help
[14:55] <KDB9000> sipior, I am not sure what you mean
[14:55] <powerslave> Anyone willing to help me to set Anjuta'a parameters?
[14:55] <KDB9000> sipior, here is the code I put into fstab "UUID=5C6CD4676CD43D88 /media/FreeAgent ntfs-3g force 0 0"
[14:55] <letalis> KDB9000: /dev/scd1       /media/cdrom2   udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0       0
[14:56] <letalis> thats the line for my cdrom drive in fstab
[14:56] <sipior> KDB9000: it should read "user,force" (and do you need the force option, btw?)
[14:57] <powerslave> Anyone willing to help me to set Anjuta'a parameters please...
[14:58] <epcom> oláà
[14:58] <epcom> ?
[14:58] <luckybreeze> >>
[14:58] <Pici> !br | epcom
[14:58] <KDB9000> sipior,  letalis, what I posted was what ubuntu told me to put in (aside from using the UUID, i did that). yes, I need the force option. When i unplug it from my windows system and then into my ubuntu system it acts like it is still in use and will not mount it unless i type in the mount command with -f (force).
[14:58] <sipior> padi: web browsers don't execute perl scripts. they ask a web server to execute a perl script...is your server configured to do this?
[14:59] <epcom> hello
[14:59] <epcom>  ?
[14:59] <sipior> KDB9000: well then just add "user" and you should be fine, i think.
[14:59] <KDB9000> sipior, I will give it a try
[14:59] <powerslave> Anyone willing to help me to set Anjuta's program parameters please...
[15:00] <sipior> powerslave: you'd get better help with a more specific question.
[15:00] <ice_cream> hi, what's the typical procedure for updating the whole system?  Mainly i'm curious if a full upgrade is recommended over a safe one, and I want to see what the apt-get way is before i decide how I want to do it w/ aptitude
[15:00] <berriop> I have an customized ubuntu installation on my desktop PC, I want to copy/transfer the same customized ubuntu to another PC, which is the best method? create an .iso image?
[15:01] <KDB9000> sipior, got a different error that time
[15:01] <powerslave> I mean what to write in the "Program Parameter" dialog in Anjuta in order to run a C program.
[15:01] <berriop> or how can I configure/change the liveCD to meet my needs so then I can install the same customized ubuntu in another pc?
[15:01] <sipior> KDB9000: you're not going to make me guess what it is, are you?
[15:02] <KDB9000> sipior, hold on
[15:03] <ice_cream> berriop, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[15:04] <z1pp3r> erUSUL: Hmm, i wasn't really able to find anything in the logs that could explain why my system crashes. I did find this in the 'messages' log though: "kernel: [    0.400252] mtrr: your CPUs had inconsistent fixed MTRR settings"
[15:04] <KDB9000> sipior,  Unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block devices using the external FUSE library. Either mount the volume as root, or rebuild NTFS-3g with integrated FUSE support and make it setuid root. Please see more information at http://nfts-3g/support.html#unprivileged
[15:04] <ice_cream> but there should be a method to take your hard drive image as well
[15:04] <erUSUL> z1pp3r: may be a harmless warning...
[15:05] <erUSUL> z1pp3r: some crashess do not leave any trace...
[15:05] <sipior> KDB9000: well, they've given you a clear way forward, at least. is the information following the link at all useful?
[15:06] <KDB9000> sipior, I am checking now. it is .org, forgot to put that in.
[15:06] <PeskyJ> Does evolution email client store *everything* in ~/.evolution? Considering setting up an encrypted filesystem there for it to use
[15:06] <z1pp3r> erUSUL, Hmm, makes it pretty hard to debug =/
[15:07] <ice_cream> oh, i guess i didnt really need to worry about my earlier query..  safe-upgrade returned same proposition as full-upgrade
[15:07] <odder> does anybody know how to edit startup order in 8.10? there was such an option in session-properties in previous versions, I remember, but it seems to be gone...
[15:08] <e3co> isn't startup order handled in .bashrc ?
[15:08] <w0ls0n> hey guys quick question for ya
[15:08] <DizzyDoo> Beginner Question: I've downloaded the Ubuntu Server ISO, but how do I create a bootable CD for the installation? Do I just unzip the contents onto the CD?
[15:09] <ice_cream> odder, you should be a bit more specific so the chan knows which startup you mean -- system startup scripts, or scripts that run after your window manager (e.g. gnome)  loads
[15:09] <w0ls0n> I have to do mount /dev/sdb1 /backup and mount /dev/sdc1 /stuff manually
[15:09] <jamiejackson> what's it take to get dual monitor (laptop display + external monitor) going in ubuntu? (Dell D620 with dock and external monitor)
[15:09] <n8tuserf> odder -> startup order as in what listed in  /etc/init.d/S*  ?
[15:09] <jamiejackson> DizzyDoo: you need to burn the iso to disk
[15:09] <e3co> thats in fstab auto mount
[15:09] <jamiejackson> you have cd burning software i assume, DizzyDoo?
[15:09] <w0ls0n> how do I add them to /etc/fstab ... I can't figure out /etc/fstab
[15:09] <tiredbones> I ran this command -  growisofs -Z /dev/scd0 -speed=1 -iso-level 4 -r /var/dar/home.1.dar    and got his error - /dev/scd0: media is not recognized as recordable DVD: A  -  I'm using distro 8.04. can someone tell me what this error is? I have burn ubuntu iso files with this burner.
[15:09] <DizzyDoo> jamiejackson: That's what I've tried, with Nero on XP, but I get a boot disk error
[15:10] <KDB9000> sipior, doesn't really look like it will help me that much. after i do the mount command for it, it will mount automatically afterwards, it is just after i have it plugged into my windows system.
[15:10] <tobberoth> So in my quest for apache2 with PHP and mySQL, I happened to use tasksel... and it deleted most of my system :/ (Trying to say that the guide to get a LAMP server was... vague to say the least). However, could I simply reinstall all the packages or did it change more than just my installed packages? I know it messed with my interfaces file, but that's to be expected I guess
[15:10] <jamiejackson> did you burn as iso DizzyDoo? it's not the same as creating a data cd
[15:10] <odder> ice_cream: I mean startup order after you login in into gnome
[15:10] <DizzyDoo> jamiejackson: I did select data CD, should I of selected Bootable Disk?
[15:10] <z1pp3r> On a fresh Ubuntu 8.10 install, the system crashes whenever i try to connect to my WPA encrypted wireless network using a Linksys WMP110 RangePlus PCI card. Any ideas what could be wrong?
[15:10] <tobberoth> DizzyDoo: You should probably burn a CD from the image file. Get a burning software which can do so.
[15:11] <n8tuserf> odder -> sorry ..startup order as in what listed in  /etc/rcS.d/*
[15:11] <sipior> tiredbones: is there in fact a recordable dvd in the drive? the error seems pretty clear. you've used this exact command before successfully?
[15:11] <jamiejackson> you need to burn the cd from an image, i'm sure ther'es an option in nero, DizzyDoo
[15:11] <jamiejackson> like "create cd from image" or something, DizzyDoo
[15:11] <DizzyDoo> jamiejackson: Thanks, I'll check for that
[15:11] <jamiejackson> k
[15:12] <berriop> thaanks ice?cram
[15:12] <ice_cream> np
[15:12] <tiredbones> sipior, no I have not use this command before. I use sony cd +rw disk. my drive is suppose to write on all media.
[15:12] <ice_cream> odder, not running gnome atm, but according to an ubuntu forum post   System-->Preferences-->Sessions   perhaps?
[15:13] <erUSUL> z1pp3r: one option you have is to install linux-backports-modules maybe the backported module (driver for the wifi) does not crash the machine
[15:13] <Kartagis> Myrtti, I wrote wget --http-user=user --http-password=password http://rapidshare.com/files/41385086/file.name.here but all I got was a HTML file. any ideas?
[15:13] <odder> ice_cream: as I wrote before, it was available before 8.10, but not now
[15:13] <erUSUL> z1pp3r: other option is to try out other kernel versions (older or newer from proposed)
[15:13] <odder> and I remember using it even in 7.04
[15:13] <ice_cream> ok, maybe someone else here knows
[15:13] <jabba_> hello
[15:13] <vegombrei> i have a freind trying to connect to my pc thru ftp .. he's using cute ftp for windows what address should he connect to ? my ip ?
[15:14] <e3co> are there any open source logo designers out there?
[15:14] <Kingsy101> can someone tell me, can I run pear commands from a ubuntu console?
[15:14] <vegombrei> how do i check if my ftp is running ?
[15:14] <Kartagis> vegombrei, your IP and port 21
[15:14] <carpii__> Kartargis, rapidhshare probably checks useragent and referrer url to make sure you dont bypass their web interface
[15:14] <sipior> tiredbones: could you verify that your userid is a member of the "cdrom" group?
[15:14] <z1pp3r> erUSUL: okay.... i'll try that
[15:14] <z1pp3r> thanks
[15:14] <carpii__> because they want you to buy their premium service
[15:14] <Kingsy101> i.e SSH
[15:14] <jabba_> can anyone tell me how to configure amavis+clamav to send a notification-mail to an email-recipient who got a virus-infected mail?
[15:14] <tiredbones> sipior, sure.
[15:14] <unop> Kartagis, if you put that url in your browser - you get a HTML page, so you expect wget to get the same
[15:14] <Pici> odder: System>Preferences>Sessions should still exist. If for some reason you don't see it, it may be hidden from your menu. run alacarte (or right click on the menu and select edit-menu) and see if it is unchecked.
[15:14] <vegombrei> Kartagis: he says its not signing in
[15:15] <Kartagis> vegombrei, /etc/init.d/vsftpd status
[15:15] <burkmat> vegombrei, Are you behind a NAT:ed router? Firewall?
[15:15] <vegombrei> Kartagis: how do i check if my ftp is on ?
[15:15] <tiredbones> sipior, give me a second.
[15:15] <alvin_3> i'm using Ubuntu Desktop version, i want to test something on computer using my laptop. i added the my ip to my laptop's host file, but it is not returning anything
[15:15] <alvin_3> can someone help?
[15:15] <odder> Pici: gosh, I would have tried that before asking on IRC. No such option available
[15:17] <Kartagis> unop, you know of any other downloaders which support username and password like flashget?
[15:17] <scribawf> How do I fix Image Viewer to open pics (jpg, png) in file browser?
[15:17] <Pici> odder: How about running gnome-session-properties manually?
[15:17] <Kingsy101> can someone tell me if I can run pear commands from a ubuntu console?
[15:18] <tiredbones> sipior, my sign on is a member of cdrom.
[15:18] <sipior> alvin_3: you'll need to describe your network arrangement a bit, and exactly what you were trying to test on your laptop, and what you expected to be returned.
[15:18] <powerslave> Can anyone tell me what to write in the "Program Parameter" dialog in Anjuta in order to run a C program?
[15:19] <Pici> odder: If that doesnt exist, make sure that you have the gnome-session package installed, but I'd highly doubt you'd have a functioning gnome without it (although I havent fully checked its contents)
[15:19] <unop> Kartagis, well, none of the conventional ones will work with rapidshare - you'll need something specially written for it
[15:19] <tiredbones> sipior, my sign on is a member of cdrom. Here's the entry -  cdrom:x:24:wayne
[15:19] <sipior> tiredbones: wait, did you say you were using a *CD* +RW disk?
[15:20] <tiredbones> sipior, yes
[15:20] <odder> Pici: yes, I'm alt+f2 running it, not through the menu
[15:20] <alvin_3> sipior: i have a php site running on my ubuntu desktop computer locally, but i want to test IE6/7 issues on my pc laptop, how can i make my pc laptop access to my ubuntu site? i added /host file on my window to point to ubuntu ip, doesnt work
[15:20] <sipior> tiredbones: clearly the drive is expecting a writable dvd disk, yes?
[15:20] <Kartagis> unop, flashget works (I run it on wine) but it sometimes gives me trouble
[15:21] <Kartagis> unop, mostly CRC failures in files I download
[15:21] <tiredbones> sipior, I always used cd+rw, are you saying I now have to use dvd disk.
[15:22] <sipior> tiredbones: you've always used cds with growisofs?
[15:22] <vegombrei> burkmat: yes a wifi router but my pc is wired in
[15:22] <deveras> hello. i need to enable modrewrite on apache but i dont have the command a2enmod rewrite is there another way to go about it? apache2 -l doesn't display the modulo either
[15:23] <burkmat> vegombrei, Look into port forwarding.
[15:23] <HHut> what is the command to end compiz? like kwin --replace in kde?
[15:23] <KazaLite> hi all. when i run command 'apt -get' i get message that 'bash: apt: command not found'
[15:23] <tiredbones> sipior, not with this command. I'm trying to backup my system using command line tool for the purpose.
[15:23] <KazaLite> whats wrong?
[15:23] <vegombrei> burkmat: port forwarding ??
[15:23] <odder> KazaLite: its apt-get
[15:23] <burkmat> vegombrei, Yes.
[15:23] <odder> KazaLite: without the space
[15:23] <KazaLite> errr...am idiot
[15:24] <vegombrei> burkmat: what are good ftp software for ubuntu ?
[15:24] <oCean_> deveras: in /etc/apache2/mods-available I do have rewrite
[15:24] <tiredbones> sipior, I'm tired of trying to get various gui tool for this purpose.
[15:24] <burkmat> vegombrei, Off the top off my head I'd recommend proftpd.
[15:24] <oCean_> deveras: it comes with apache2.2-common
[15:24] <odder> vegombrei: I used to like gftp, for example
[15:24] <vegombrei> burkmat: could you name some more .. i installed one a few days ago but forgot what it was called
[15:25] <HHut> what is the command to end compiz? like kwin --replace in kde? i didnt use gnome a lot
[15:25] <sipior> tiredbones: yeah, the growisofs manpage does not mention CD support, and i'm fairly certain the program will fail on them. but if you're backing up a system, surely DVDs are the better choice anyhow? (well, best would be to copy your data to two removable hard drives)
[15:25] <vegombrei> burkmat: thing is i donno if its running and how to check .. it worked when i first installed it
[15:25] <burkmat> vegombrei, None of them are going to work unless you set up port forwarding... Did you look into it or are you just ignoring that advice? ;)
[15:25] <vegombrei> burkmat: googled it but really confused as im a noob
[15:26] <odder> Pici: any other ideas how to manage that startup order?
[15:26] <deveras> oCean i created the symbolic link in mods-enable to that mods-available and restared apache, but i still doesnt show up in apache2 -l and the rewrite rules arent working
[15:26] <burkmat> vegombrei, Basically, access your router and forward an external port to an internal one.
[15:26] <tiredbones> sipior, I guess I'll go to staples and buy some dvd +rw.
[15:26] <KDB9000> sipior, the website didn't help me any. When I run the mount command in the terminal for my hard drive, I get this $LogFile indicates unclean shutdown (0, 1) then on the next line WARNING: Forced mount, reset $LogFile.
[15:27] <vegombrei> burkmat: can i do that by connecting to the router thru my browser ?
[15:27] <deveras> how do i install the command a2enmod
[15:27] <tiredbones> sipior, thanks for your help.
[15:27] <burkmat> vegombrei, Yes.
[15:27] <sipior> tiredbones: depending on the amount you have to back up, please consider getting two removable hard drives. less money per gigabyte, easier to manage.
[15:27] <KazaLite> i've gcc installed but it fails to find standard C include files e.g. stdio.h .... how to fix it?:'(
[15:28] <NarbeH> I'm in live session. how can i low level format my HDD ?
[15:28] <vegombrei> burkmat: would you like to walk me thru it ?
[15:28] <sipior> KDB9000: well that's a bizarre error. what's the precise mount command that you're running?
[15:28] <oCean_> deveras: apache2 -l lists only the build-ins /compiled-ins i guess. The rewrite rules not working... any clues in error_log, or in browser?
[15:28] <Wille_eee> !ath
[15:28] <NarbeH> I'm in live session. how can i low level format my HDD ?
[15:29] <burkmat> vegombrei, No I would not. :P But check out http://portforward.com/
[15:29] <Titan8990> NarbeH, fdisk
[15:29] <NarbeH> Titan8990: thq :)
[15:29] <deveras> oCean_ not really basicly the error log claims the file doesn't exist (cause it doesnt do the redirect)
[15:29] <deveras> the rewrite i mean
[15:29] <HHut> i have a monitor connected to my graphiccadr via vga-->dvi adapter, card only has to dvi slpts, but the vga-monitor is not found
[15:29] <presshre> NarbeH: are u from Iran?
[15:30] <KDB9000> sipior, it mounts it, but i am just saying the command. command is sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/FreeAgent -o force and then it displays the 2 things i told you and i can see the hard drive on my desktop, but i don't want to type the command in everytime i want to use my external
[15:30] <NarbeH> presshre: yes. why?
[15:30] <Wille_eee> when i go from hibernation to wakeup mode, the system (ath5) wants to reset "noise level" on three diffrent channels, why?
[15:30] <jako> ello, sorry for the lame question but I have a doubt: having a Mobile DualCore Intel Core 2 Duo 1800 MHz which arch shall I choose? ia64 isn't it?
[15:30] <presshre> NarbeH: just a question ;)
[15:30] <NarbeH> presshre: don't think bad things about me :)
[15:30] <presshre> NarbeH: nevermind
[15:30] <NarbeH> :)
[15:31] <omnydevi1> jako: how much ram ya got?
[15:31] <vegombrei> burkmat: my netgear router isnt on that list
[15:31] <burkmat> vegombrei, I doubt it. What router is it?
[15:32] <vegombrei> burkmat: NETGEAR WNR854T
[15:32] <sipior> KDB9000: btw, is your login a member of the fuse group? (type "groups" to check)
[15:33] <InfectedWithDrew> Hello all, I've been having trouble with the EXT2 IFS on Windows.  If you don't know what that is, the site is fs-driver.org.  Anyways, when I try to mount a drive, it breaks my computer, trying to mount swap as C:.  The diagnosis tool said something about me using something with 256 when I should have used 128, and said I'd have to redo my installation.  I forget this error message, and can't re-create it without possibly b
[15:33] <NarbeH> Titan8990: sorry i can't find the command... what is it?
[15:33] <burkmat> vegombrei, Alright, well, take a look at some of the other Netgear guides (another WNR perhaps?), and see if they help you out? Quite easy to draw parallels.
[15:33] <KDB9000> sipior, yes
[15:33] <sipior> KDB9000: actually, check for groups disk and plugdev as well
[15:33] <Titan8990> NarbeH, sudo fdisk /dev/sdxx
[15:34] <NarbeH> Titan8990: is it low level format?
[15:34] <KDB9000> sipior, how?
[15:34] <sipior> KDB9000: same command...
[15:34] <Titan8990> NarbeH, depends on your definition of a low level format
[15:34] <vegombrei> burkmat: already on it
[15:34] <alvin_3> sipior: any idea how can i do thath?
[15:34] <Titan8990> NarbeH, by wikipedia's definition it is
[15:34] <aboSamoor> I have KONICA Minolta 7222 network printer, I am using the PPD file provided by windows driver by instead of ubuntu page i got 31 page rabbish !? ANy help ?
[15:34] <jako> omnydevi1 2GB
[15:34] <NarbeH> Titan8990: got ir
[15:34] <NarbeH> Titan8990: it*
[15:34] <sipior> alvin_3: sorry, do what again?
[15:34] <Titan8990> NarbeH, if you were looking to say, shred the data, you either want DBAN or use dd
[15:34] <KDB9000> sipior, ah, was confused for a second. plugdev yes, disk no
[15:35] <Titan8990> NarbeH, or even possible shred
[15:35] <NarbeH> Titan8990: aha dd.
[15:35] <Titan8990> NarbeH, to write zeros:    sudo dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024k of=/dev/sdx
[15:35] <Mean_Admin> can I send emails with default of 8.1 ?
[15:36] <NarbeH> Titan8990: u know what? my HDD has got lots of badsectors ,,,
[15:36] <Matic> aboSamoor, am sorry you can't use ppd file for windows in linux, just use the other options
[15:36] <big_ghost> i am trying to install ubuntu 8.10 on a ibook g3 and it says that the cd-rom drive cannot be mounted and ask to have a floppy with the cd-rom driver on it to load is there such a driver
[15:36] <Titan8990> NarbeH, already ran fsck?
[15:36] <NarbeH> Titan8990: no
[15:37] <Matic> anyone who knows how to connect evolution to a gmail account such that you can send and receive e-mails?
[15:37] <aboSamoor> Matic: I did not get it. I can not find a linux driver for the printer. so I was advised in this channel to get the PPD file provided by the manufacturer !
[15:37] <Titan8990> Matic, same way you would with any other MUA
[15:37] <NemsSs> Hi everybody
[15:37] <Titan8990> Matic, just view the gmail documentation
[15:37] <Titan8990> Matic, there is nothing gmail specific, but setting it up using a different guide shouldn't be difficult
[15:37] <alex_goanta_2012> hey
[15:37] <Titan8990> Matic, err, mean evolution specifci
[15:38] <Matic> Titan8990, thanks yes I mean that
[15:38] <alex_goanta_2012> how can i mount a partition?
[15:38] <burkmat> alex_goanta_2012, Using the `mount` command.
[15:38] <oCean_> deveras: it's "apache2ctl -M" to list all loaded modules (static and shared). Use "apache2ctl -M 2>/tmp/modules.txt" to create a file containing modulelist. See if rewrite is loaded indeed
[15:38] <alex_goanta_2012> more details
[15:39] <sipior> alvin_3: i found your previous post: have you verified that you can ping your desktop from your laptop? are these on the same network?
[15:39] <Matic> alex_goanta_2012, try mount -a
[15:40] <alex_goanta_2012> it says:mount: only root can do that
[15:40] <alex_goanta_2012> alex@alex-desktop:~$
[15:41] <Matic> alex_goanta_2012, type sudo su and then give the password then type the command
[15:41] <NarbeH> Titan8990: sorry. what is this command do? sudo dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024k of=/dev/sda
[15:41] <oCean_> alex_goanta_2012: to use mount command, use "sudo" to start command (so command is executed as root) However, the mount -a command will *only* work if the new partition (filesystem) you want to mount is specified in /etc/fstab file
[15:42] <Titan8990> NarbeH, it writes all zeros to the disk
[15:42] <NarbeH> Titan8990: aha
[15:42] <NarbeH> Titan8990: how long does it takes?
[15:42] <oCean_> alex_goanta_2012: If you just added a disk and want a new partition to be mounted, you'll have to add a line to /etc/fstab file
[15:42] <Titan8990> NarbeH, when I did it last week it did about 50-60mb/s
[15:43] <Titan8990> NarbeH, with my 500gb sata drives
[15:43] <aboSamoor> Matic: Any idea ?
[15:43] <Titan8990> NarbeH, so about as fast as the rw speed of your drive
[15:43] <Matic> aboSamoor, about?
[15:43] <NarbeH> Titan8990: aha . my HDD now is Deleted.
[15:43] <thiago_> VFS/samba-vscan-0.3.6b/include/vscan-config.h:77:1: warning: "PACKAGE_BUGREPORT" redefined
[15:43] <NarbeH> Titan8990: nothing in it.
[15:44] <aboSamoor> Matic: how can I configure the Network printer
[15:44] <sachael> does anyone know what the letters in the "S" column in htop mean?
[15:44] <Titan8990> NarbeH, you can still write 0s to it, if you are worried about someone trying to look at it with a electron microscope
[15:45] <NarbeH> Titan8990: no not about privacy. my problem is badsectors ...
[15:45] <Mean_Admin> I installed smartd and asked it to send test email. tail /var/log/syslog says it sent the test email but I've received no such mail in my inbox nor in my junk mail, what am I missing ? do I have to setup smtp/pop for outgoing emails ?
[15:45] <big_ghost> i installed ubuntu 8.10 pp version (alternative instillation disk) the instillation get to cd-rom detection anf fails is ther a fix for this ?
[15:45] <Titan8990> NarbeH, then the fdisk format should be fine, as long as the disc is not actually failing or dieing
[15:45] <NarbeH> Titan8990: so can i cancel the sudo dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024k of=/dev/sda ?
[15:45] <Titan8990> NarbeH, yes
[15:46] <Matic> aboSamoor, check with the manufacturers website whether they offer the drivers for linux, some like Hp do but I must tell you it is not easy to get it working especially if it's not a Hp printer but I don't mean that it is impossible, just check out that man first
[15:46] <NarbeH> Titan8990: ok i have to run this? sudo fdisk /dev/sda
[15:46] <Titan8990> !cups | aboSamoor
[15:46] <InfectedWithDrew> Hello all, how do I set the inode size of an Ubuntu installation to 128?
[15:46] <Titan8990> NarbeH, if you have not already, make sure that the drive you are formatting is sda....
[15:47] <Titan8990> NarbeH, in the interactive fdisk prompt, you can hit "m" for help
[15:47] <alex_goanta_2012> when windows will be free it will be as difficult to use as linux?
[15:47] <jiffe92> anyone know a way to preseed `apt-get install mysql-server` with a hash of the root password so that it doesn't have to ask for it?
[15:48] <NarbeH> Titan8990: i saw.
[15:48] <hbekel> alex_goanta_2012: pebkac
[15:48] <ice_cream> alex_goanta_2012, when windows will be free, pigs will fly
[15:48] <ice_cream> but that's ot
[15:48] <sipior> InfectedWithDrew: construct an appropriate filesystem with mke2fs, and then install ubuntu into it. i don't believe you can alter the value after the fact.
[15:48] <alex_goanta_2012> windows 7 will be free
[15:48] <Titan8990> NarbeH, just make your partitions and:    mke2fs -j /dev/sdxx
[15:48] <alex_goanta_2012> my friend
[15:48] <Dr_willis> alex_goanta_2012,  Yea.. sure.. i dont see that happening.
[15:48] <NarbeH> Titan8990: ook :) thq alot
[15:48] <Titan8990> NarbeH, to format in ext3   or:     mkswap to make swap
[15:48] <InfectedWithDrew> sipior, I am aware of this.  How does mke2fs work?
[15:48] <Titan8990> NarbeH, np
[15:48] <ross_> hi
[15:49] <NarbeH> Titan8990: can i do it with gparted?
[15:49] <ice_cream> afaik windows 7 beta is temporarily free
[15:49] <Matic> alex_goanta_2012, if you haven't liked linux, then you haven't discovered it yet, please try
[15:49] <Titan8990> NarbeH, if you want to do it the newb way, sure
[15:49] <ross_> hi adam
[15:49] <InfectedWithDrew> sipior, is there an option in GParted?  This thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-979523.html alludes to it
[15:49] <sipior> InfectedWithDrew: btw, when you do the install, be sure to inform ubuntu not to overwrite the empty filesystem you just created ;-)
[15:49] <NarbeH> Titan8990: so after making partition?
[15:50] <Mean_Admin> ok, I'll rephrase this, can an app send an outgoing mail with only default parameters on ubuntu 8.1?
[15:50]  * Andelkrag dice hola. :P
[15:50] <ross_> i need to change my bash properties in my remastered live cd
[15:50] <alex_goanta_2012> trust, i want to ,but i just can`t mount that stupid partition
[15:50] <Titan8990> NarbeH, yes, but I think that gparted can make the partitions as well, if that is your choice
[15:50] <NarbeH> Titan8990: aha
[15:50] <Kingsy101> can someone tell me the sudo apt install "package name" of the command line version of php so I can run pear commands from the console?
[15:50] <Dr_willis> alex_goanta_2012,  learn to use the mount command, and the command line, and then you will be able to trouble shoot the problem, (whatever the problem is, i havent been paying attation)
[15:51] <Matic> Kingsy101, php-cli
[15:51] <InfectedWithDrew> sipior, how do I do that?
[15:51] <oCean_> alex_goanta_2012: is it a new partition? Is it a new disk? What filesystem is on the partition?
[15:52] <sipior> InfectedWithDrew: "man mke2fs". the option you're looking for is -I, i think
[15:52] <Kingsy101> Matic - it says php-cli is ont available
[15:52] <ajitam> hi I just configure smb share on my ubuntu server. Everything's OK I can connect but when I do I and up in some wired folder (/var/lib/samba/printers/)
[15:52] <Kingsy101> not*
[15:52] <NarbeH> Titan8990: done with fdisk. :) thq alot
[15:52] <alex_goanta_2012> it is a old partition with music and  moviesand is ntfs
[15:52] <Titan8990> NarbeH, np
[15:52] <Matic> Kingsy101, try php5-cli
[15:53] <Kingsy101> yea that seems to be working
[15:53] <InfectedWithDrew> sipior, is this after I've created an ext3 filesystem that I would install the OS to?  (I'm going to be installing Ubuntu on a friend's computer and it'd be nice if the ext2 IFS worked...)
[15:53] <Dr_willis> One of these days we need to track down a 'walk a user through mounting a ntfs parittion wizazrd script'
[15:53] <oCean_> alex_goanta_2012: do you know the device name? (like /dev/sda2, /dev/sdb1 ...)
[15:53] <sipior> InfectedWithDrew: so, for ext3, something like mke2fs -m 0 -j -I 128 /dev/foo
[15:53] <alex_goanta_2012> dev/sda5
[15:53] <KazaLite> now apt-get fails to install build-essential because it could not find the package on the archive....how can i change the urls on which apt-get should search for the packages?
[15:53] <sipior> InfectedWithDrew: yes, simply create a filesystem on an available partition, then tell ubuntu to install using that partition, being careful to instruct the installer not to overwrite it.
[15:54] <jamiejackson> if I've got a laptop in a dock, should i be able to run a separate monitor from the dock's video port? (not just to show me the same thing on my laptop display, but to show another display?)
[15:54] <oCean_> alex_goanta_2012: the actual mount command for one-time mount would be "sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda5 /music", where "/music" should be an existing directory
[15:54] <ice_cream> alex_goanta_2012, just mount it to some mount point..
[15:54] <burkmat> jamiejackson, if your graphics card supports dual monitors, then yes.
[15:54] <oCean_> alex_goanta_2012: if you want to mount the filesystem after every boot, you need to add a line in /etc/fstab file
[15:55] <Dr_willis> example fstab like for ntfs --> /dev/sda1 /media/Vista ntfs-3g defaults,umask=0,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 0
[15:55] <n8tuserf> jamiejackson -> seems reasonable, look into gdmflexiserver
[15:55] <oCean_> Dr_willis: that saved me a couple of keystrokes :)
[15:55] <ice_cream> and consider the "auto" option too
[15:55] <InfectedWithDrew> sipior, I understand the -I parameter but what do the -m and -j parameters do?  I want to be sure I'm not just pounding away... I want to be able to resize his NTFS partition to take up half the drive, then I want to have the rest be ext3 with like 2GB swap, and have the ext3 use an inode of 128.  If that can be done in GParted that'd be swell because I'm not experienced and don't want to mess anything up.
[15:55] <jamiejackson> is there a linuxy way to do that, burkmat, or do i have to look at the card specs?
[15:55] <ice_cream> so that it automounts on boot
[15:56] <sipior> InfectedWithDrew: this is what man pages are for :-) -m sets the reserve block percentage to zero, and -j creates a journal (otherwise you make an ext2 filesystem)
[15:56] <burkmat> jamiejackson, I'm not very experienced in the matter, but I suspect card specs may be the easiest way to check. :)
[15:57] <boot_loop> does anyone know if there is an application to open *.cue files in Ubuntu? I use Daemon tools in windows, but not sure what the equivalent would be. Also, it's for an installer that I will need to run through wine, so is there a way to do it through wine?
[15:57] <PeskyJ> does encfs support lock files?
[15:57] <InfectedWithDrew> I see.  Are you aware of GParted allowing you to choose your inode size?  Hell, I could just install Hardy, I heard it uses 128
[15:57] <oCean_> ice_cream: well, yes the 'auto' is default of course
[15:57] <odder> oups... how do I make my desktop visible again? I've got show_desktop in gconfd apps>nautilus>preferences marked
[15:57] <sipior> InfectedWithDrew: you'd have to consule the gparted docs. it should be possible to pass options to mkfs from gparted. does windows require the inode size for some reason?
[15:58] <KDB9000> sipior, ah, was confused for a second. plugdev yes, disk no
[15:58] <sipior> KDB9000: well, did you add yourself to disk?
[15:58] <InfectedWithDrew> sipior, it's the software for reading ext, the ext2 ifs.  There is another, clunkier software that has been updated for 256, but I'd rather use the former because it's much faster.
[15:59] <KDB9000> sipior, no.
[15:59] <ice_cream> ah, right, good point oCean_
[15:59] <ice_cream> i just have noauto all over the place, and i forgot about the default =D
[16:00] <ibuclaw> odder, just a small suggestion, but try logging out/back in again
[16:00] <alex_goanta_2012> can my computer  be fixed from the outside?
[16:00] <KDB9000> sipior, the only problem is, I can't test to see if that fixed the problem now
[16:00] <ibuclaw> alex_goanta_2012, you mean remote desktop ?
[16:01] <alex_goanta_2012> yeah
[16:01] <odder> ibuclaw: already done a few times
[16:01] <ikonia> alex_goanta_2012: what is the problem ?
[16:01] <InfectedWithDrew> sipior, I have to scram, thank you for the tips.  If I can't find a way to do it easily in GParted, I'll end up getting on via live session later.  Have a good one.
[16:01] <alex_goanta_2012> i don`t really know
[16:01] <odder> ibuclaw: and, additionally, I can't visit my home folder with nautilus and right-click doesn't work
[16:01] <ice_cream> alex_goanta_2012, are you still having trouble mounting that ntfs drive?
[16:01] <oCean_> alex_goanta_2012: we tried to let you mount the partition. Dit that work?
[16:01] <alex_goanta_2012> nope
[16:02] <ice_cream> output
[16:02] <alvin_3> sipior: they are on the same network yes
[16:02] <oCean_> alex_goanta_2012: what is the error you got?
[16:02] <ice_cream> alex_goanta_2012, post output on pastie.org  or other pastebin sites
[16:02] <alex_goanta_2012> how can i send you a screenshot/
[16:02] <ikonia> alex_goanta_2012: just tell us the problem
[16:02] <Team-Leader> อยากมีแฟน
[16:02] <sipior> alvin_3: and can you ping one host from the other? are there any firewall rules in operation on the target machine?
[16:03] <alex_goanta_2012> when i try to acces the partition it says unclean shutdown
[16:03] <ikonia> alex_goanta_2012: ok - so you have to boot into windows and run chkdisk on that partition
[16:03] <ikonia> alex_goanta_2012: windows has marked it as dirty so ubuntu won't mount it
[16:03] <oCean_> alex_goanta_2012: okay, that is know problem
[16:03] <alex_goanta_2012> how cai it be fixed?
[16:04] <oCean_> alex_goanta_2012: reuse same mount command I send, but add "-o force" at the end.
[16:04] <ikonia> alex_goanta_2012: boot into windows and run chkdisk on it
[16:04] <ikonia> oCean_: advising someone to mount a potentially corrupted file system with force is not a good idea
[16:04] <w0ls0n> hey guys quick question for ya
[16:04] <w0ls0n> I have to do mount /dev/sdb1 /backup and mount /dev/sdc1 /stuff manually
[16:04] <alex_goanta_2012> you mean i have to install windows again?:O
[16:04] <w0ls0n> how do I add them to /etc/fstab ... I can't figure out /etc/fstab
[16:04] <ikonia> w0ls0n: what can't you figure out ?
[16:04] <oCean_> ikonia: alex_goanta_2012: I think it's worth a shot, since I succeeded more than once
[16:05] <ikonia> oCean_: "worth a shot" we don't even know how important this data is
[16:05] <ikonia> oCean_: I appriciate what your saying but please consider the end user when offering solutions, you could potentially lose all his data
[16:05] <alex_goanta_2012> if i install windows i will not install linux again
[16:05] <ikonia> w0ls0n: what part is not clear
[16:05] <w0ls0n> it's not as clear as freebsd
[16:05] <ikonia> w0ls0n: what part is not clear ?
[16:06] <burkmat> alex_goanta_2012, To be fair, the issue here is that Windows flagged the disc and therefor Ubuntu doesn't want to break it by touching...
[16:06] <KDB9000> sipior, there is no disk group
[16:06] <easybaby> spricht hier auch wer deutsch?
[16:06] <Pici> !de | easybaby
[16:06] <odder> how do I fix this: Eel:ERROR:eel-preferences.c:117:preferences_gconf_value_get_string: assertion failed: (value->type == GCONF_VALUE_STRING) ?
[16:06] <alex_goanta_2012> it sucks
[16:06] <odder> it shows in my .xsession-erors
[16:06] <ice_cream> ?
[16:06] <Mean_Admin> last try: can an app send outgoing emails with default ubuntu configuration ?
[16:06] <n8tuserf> w0ls0n -> you do know that slices of BSD systems are slightly different from partitions of linux right?
[16:06] <burkmat> alex_goanta_2012, There are ways to do it in Ubuntu, but as ikonia pointed out: Risky and we don't even know what data is on there. Losing you all your work over the last decade would suck, so we're not keen to risk it.
[16:07] <w0ls0n> correct
[16:07] <w0ls0n> I know my mount pointsd
[16:07] <porter1> Mean_Admin: Yes
[16:07] <savvas> Mean_Admin: sendmail
[16:07] <alex_goanta_2012> ok
[16:07] <Jeff_Martin> Mean_Admin: indeed
[16:07] <bangalibabu> i can't log in other server while other server is open with the same nick i've already registered. i want to open several servers simultaneously with the same nick. what do i do?
[16:07] <alex_goanta_2012> thank you for the help i will just install windows
[16:07] <ice_cream> w0ls0n, you need to know the filesystem type now, and what options you want?  readonly? rw?
[16:07] <ikonia> w0ls0n: the format is $DEVICE $MOUNTPOINT $FILESYSTEM $OPTIONS $CHKOPTIONS
[16:07] <burkmat> alex_goanta_2012, Good luck.
[16:07] <Mean_Admin> thanks, porter1, savvas and Jeff_Martin for actually replying :)
[16:07] <w0ls0n> so
[16:08] <ikonia> w0ls0n: you just need device/mountpoint/filesystem - copy the options and chkoptions from someone else
[16:08] <ikonia> as in one of the disks
[16:08] <w0ls0n> /dev/sdb1 /backup ext2 defaults 0 0
[16:08] <ikonia> w0ls0n: there yo ugo
[16:08] <alex_goanta_2012> but if i will do that the partition will work with no problem
[16:08] <ikonia> there you go
[16:08] <alex_goanta_2012> in windows
[16:08] <w0ls0n> kk
[16:08] <w0ls0n> tyty
[16:08] <w0ls0n> ill write that down
[16:08] <Mean_Admin> anyone obvious place except iptables I should look when an app tells me it sent the mail all right but I didn't receive the mail ?
[16:09] <savvas> Mean_Admin: sendmail is a console application, you could use mozilla thunderbird or evolution mail and other applications if you set it up properly with smtp
[16:09] <Titan8990> eww sendmail....
[16:09] <ikonia> Mean_Admin: network (isp) blocking, see if the port (25) is open
[16:09] <_spm_Draget> I installed NIS and it works nicely when I start it maually. But after rebooting my loginmanaged does not find the users in my NIS. Once I manually start it, it works fine. I suspect my networkcard being setup too late... does anyone know how to solve this?
[16:10] <ikonia> Mean_Admin: it may also be sending the mail - but if you are on a home broadband/cable connection, most ISP's will black list you
[16:10] <Mean_Admin> savvas: it's more an app that sends automated mail (smartd) so I wouldn't think I need to install a mail app
[16:10] <boot_loop> Hey folks, I have EverQuest Titanium downloaded but I only have *.cue *.img, etc... files. I normally mount these files in Windows by using the Daemon Tools application. Is there a way to mount these through wine using a linux compatible cd-rom emulator?
[16:10] <Mean_Admin> ikonia: my iptables are clean and you'd think the isp would let outgoing mail :S
[16:10] <xxNickxx> can someone help me with network setting on a vmware virtual machine?
[16:10] <Titan8990> boot_loop, good chance you can just mount the .img, without additional tools
[16:10] <alex_goanta_2012> but if i will install windows  the partition will work with no problems?
[16:11] <ikonia> Mean_Admin: a lot of ISP's won't allow out going mail, and a lot of ISP's (your target) will black list you because you're on a home connection, so the mail will get black holed or bounced
[16:11] <boot_loop> Titan8990: okay, I'll give it a shot, thanks a lot
[16:11] <ikonia> xxNickxx: #vmware may be a good place to start
[16:11] <Mean_Admin> ikonia: would it work any better if I just used a different, maybe much higher port ?
[16:11] <ikonia> Mean_Admin: no
[16:11] <savvas> Mean_Admin: why would you set a home mail server?
[16:11] <xxNickxx> ikonia: i tired #vmware. no one is talking :)
[16:11] <Mean_Admin> savvas: I wouldn't!
[16:11] <ikonia> xxNickxx: wait patiently
[16:11] <sipior> KDB9000: by the way, have you looked here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G ?
[16:11] <oCean_> alex_goanta_2012: no guarantee.. Windows had marked it as 'bad', since it was not cleanly shutdown, meaning that the device might have been busy when windows shut down.
[16:12] <Mean_Admin> savvas: just trying to get an app to send email when hdd fails!
[16:12] <ikonia> Mean_Admin: you may want to tell your mta to use your isp smarthost
[16:12] <Mean_Admin> ikonia: merde, I've no idea what mta is and I've also no idea what my ips's smarthost is
[16:12] <alex_goanta_2012> can it be fixed from windows?
[16:12] <oCean_> alex_goanta_2012: how important is the data on that filesystem for you? I was told not to suggest the force option, because you might end up with a corrupted filesystem
[16:12] <burkmat> alex_goanta_2012, Windows can _try_ to fix it.
[16:12] <ikonia> Mean_Admin: swearing in french isn't acceptable either
[16:13] <alex_goanta_2012> ok
[16:13] <alex_goanta_2012> good by
[16:13] <alex_goanta_2012> i`l install windows

[16:18] <tonyyarusso> da_sharp: what do you mean "safe mode"?
[16:18] <martin_> !Hi
[16:19] <da_sharp> tonyyarusso, Well, you get that option usned 'F4' in 32 bit live cd, you don't have that under 'F4' in 64 bit
[16:19] <sipior> KDB9000: sorry to hear that. looks like you may be stuck for the moment, but you might try putting your problem out again for the channel, see if anyone else has any further insight.
[16:20] <DonaldShimoda> hi
[16:20] <da_sharp> tonyyarusso, I need to install 64 bit and X doesn't showup for me if I don't boot in safe mode

[16:20] <arvind_khadri> !enter | DonaldShimoda
[16:20] <tonyyarusso> da_sharp: I'm not familiar with the Live CD, but if you don't make progress with that you could use the alternate Cd and nott use X at alll.
[16:21] <DonaldShimoda> but the build and get a kernel version <IP_ADDRESS> . any clue why?
[16:21] <da_sharp> tonyyarusso, Yes. But I'm worried , I'll have to spend time after install to get X working.
[16:21] <KDB9000> sipior, thx for the help. I have been putting this question out a lot and no one responds to it. it only seems to happen after i use it with my windows computer, but there should be a way to do a force mount automatically with the hard drive

[16:24] <looter> i removed the volume applet from my panel....and when I added it back, I am unable to move it back into its original spot which is directly next to the date and time.

[16:26] <looter> well i don't see any dividers and as i mentioned the only applet standing in its way is the network manager but it gives me no options when i right click it to unlock or move it.  its stuck.  and there appears to be nothing else in the way

[16:55] <Revage> monestri, i suppose so, not shure though :s
[16:55] <burkmat> PeskyJ, Gnome automounts by default iirc... At least it did for me until I demanded it ask for password.
[16:55] <sipior> PeskyJ: sorry? what auto-mounts?
[16:55] <monestri> Revage, gnome-mount doesn't offer much gui configuration

Currently my small company uses Dells X-Image utility to deploy OS Images to about 6 Different models. We create the base image, which is deployed via a PXE Server, Then It detects what model the system is, installs the correct cab files based on the model type, then runs Sysprep to finaliz
[16:58] <deathtech> e settings and what not. Currently, Dell Pretty much rapes us for using this utility, and we have to find an alternative solution if we are to survive as a company. The Only Thing i ahve found so far is something called G4U, but it doesnt appear that it will function at the level we need it to
[16:59] <Dr_willis> burkmat,  you could check the devcies UUID perhaps..   or check out the HAL config options to not use fstab.

[17:01] <pip> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6762434#post6762434
[17:01] <churl> so when i installed firefox-3.0 without uninstalling firefox, did that mess up anything that i should know about?
[17:01] <deathtech> tonyyarusso : Thanks, i will research that :) Any other ideas i may be able to check out from anyone ?
[17:01] <Dr_willis> boot_loop,  you mean its an CD image file? ive nevef heard of a .img installer under windows
[17:02] <Cotowar> try unlocking everything, and moving it all closer together. that might help too?
[17:02] <Cotowar> or try removing stuff you dont need like the username, or remove the apps, place, system, and make it just the gnome foot
[17:02] <boot_loop> dr_willis: yes it's a cd .img file, but when I try to mount it using the loopback driver it says it's for the wrong filesystem
[17:03] <Dr_willis> boot_loop,  try the fuseiso or other 'fuse cd image' tools.. theres 2 or 3 in the repos.. some of them can miount  non-iso images..
[17:03] <Cotowar> heres one for you Ubuntu gurus.
[17:03] <boot_loop> ok thanks a lot
[17:04] <Cotowar> i have a GDM theme, and i didn't like the pic so i photoshopped it in gimp. i saved it as the same name, but the theme won't use the new pic
[17:04] <Cotowar> how do i get my GDM theme to use a new image? the image file name is the same, and its actually replaced the original in the directory
[17:04] <Dr_willis> 'photoshopped it in gimp'  ? :0 just saying  'edited it in gimp' would be shorter :P
[17:05] <Cotowar> my bad...
[17:05] <Krooks> When an app is not listed in Adept and you want it, in this situation, what do you all do ?
[17:05] <Cotowar> lol
[17:05] <Dr_willis> could be the # of colors or some other thing was changed.
[17:05] <benste> after last updates in 9.04 gdm fails to load - I don't know what to do now
[17:05] <spsneo> I have installed apt-mirror for a local ubuntu repo. but I am not able to update. can anybody help me?
[17:06] <kitche> Krooks: go find it and compile it or try another site to get the package but I rather compile a program if I need it and it's not stock
[17:06] <Cotowar> hmm, i was thinking that i might have to re-archive with the tar.gz, then re-install by dragging or whatever into the login window's window.
[17:06] <keystr0k> is there a way to run compiz without the stupid ATI drivers?
[17:06] <Dr_willis> Cotowar,  thats possible also.
[17:06] <AlfieH> heyy, i cannot put my desktop effects on.. How can i fix this. Thanks.
[17:06] <Cotowar> alfieH, what graphics card do you have?
[17:07] <AlfieH> Nvidia 8800 GTX
[17:07] <Cotowar> make sure that its supported
[17:07] <Cotowar> oh, yea that should be supported. you should be able to go to add/remove and add the compiz settings manager
[17:07] <Dr_willis> AlfieH,  you did install the nvidia drivers?
[17:07] <AlfieH> i think so, how can i install again m8?
[17:07] <Dr_willis> !nvidia
[17:07] <AlfieH> just to double check
[17:08] <spsneo> I have installed apt-mirror for a local ubuntu repo. but I am not able to update. can anybody help me?
[17:08] <benste> why does gdm fail after last jaunty update?
[17:08] <tonyyarusso> benste: #ubuntu+1 for all jaunty discussion.
[17:08] <AlfieH> alfie@alfie-desktop:~$ lspci | grep VGA
[17:08] <AlfieH> 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G80 [GeForce 8800 GTX] (rev a2)
[17:08] <benste> thanks
[17:08] <_VI_> benste: same thing for me
[17:09] <Krooks> kitche: yeah, actually that what I want to know. if something is not stock, is there a site with experimental or customised debs that I can use ? Or my only choice is to install it from source. Also, if I were to install it from source, do I have to do make install or can I built a deb first after make so that its easy to unisntall later on.
[17:09] <dhruvasagar> Krooks: try www.getdeb.net
[17:09] <imri303> any GDM wizards out there?  I wanna launch nm-conection-editor from GDM at login via the customcommand feature in gdm.conf-custom but it errors out
[17:10] <Krooks> dhruvasagar: thanks. will check it out
[17:10] <kitche> Krooks: there is getdeb site you can use checkinstall to make a deb but I have never used checkinstall never really trusted it
[17:11] <AlfieH> any solutions?
[17:11] <Dr_willis> imri303,  i got xpenguins startging. :) i recall to get it to work. I had to use the 'simple' gdm login screen. not the  fancy gdm login screen
[17:11] <Cotowar> just so you know, i did have to re-install the GDM theme to get it to use the new image
[17:11] <Cotowar> it works fine now
[17:12] <dhruvasagar> Krooks: mention not :)
[17:12] <imri303> I have gdmlogin running not greeter and i can start the program via the Init/Default script but I wanna be able to launch it from the "Actions" menu
[17:12] <AlfieH> Did everyone see my previous message about the Nvidia?
[17:12] <Dr_willis> imri303,  here is my sampel confif --> http://allyourbasearebelongtous.pastebin.com/f5e3a7c61  if it helps..  I never got that actuion menu working either
[17:13] <Cotowar> heres another little pet peeve i have. how do i get the applications i have to use the icon set i have?
[17:13] <fabio_> Cotowar: use Human O2 icon set, very nice
[17:13] <Cotowar> like, my quick launch firefox is different than the icon on the firefox window
[17:13] <Cotowar> im using black_white_2
[17:13] <Cotowar> my whole computer is black with white text
[17:14] <imri303> the problem i have with running it via the Init/Default script is I can't change focus to it.  If I run it with just /usr/bin/nm-connection-editor it runs b4 the login screen pops up and the login screen won't execute until I hit close on the connection editor
[17:14] <Cotowar> easier on the eyes, which helped a lot when i did programming
[17:14] <Cotowar> but like i have this icon set, and i can't get the apps to use it in their windows, and in the panel for active windows
[17:14] <Cotowar> it only works in the apps menu
[17:15] <Cotowar> i think i have to configure each and every program individually, in which case i'll just do the ones i use like ff
[17:15] <Cotowar> does anyone else have that problem as well?
[17:16] <fabio_> Cotowar: not sure, my ico set is ok
[17:16] <imri303> thanks Dr_willis I will check it out
[17:16] <Dr_willis> imri303,  yea. when i login . i got little penguins running all over the gdm login screen.. silly but cute
[17:16] <Cotowar> like, in the apps menu, i can see my custom set, and on the top panel i can see them as well. its when i run apps that the defaults return
[17:17] <Cotowar> and i personally hate the defaults for the apps i use
[17:17] <Abracadabra> Hi
[17:17] <Abracadabra> simple question for you guys, but a headache for me for the past few hours
[17:17] <twordley> just patched intrepid this morning now i can no longer sudo.  I checked /etc/sudoers and /etc/group.  my user is in the proper groups and /etc/sudoers looks fine.  Any ideas?
[17:17] <Abracadabra> I need to know what the version of rrdtool I have in the apt-get repository
[17:17] <fabio_> Cotowar: try with a different icon set...
[17:18] <Abracadabra> can someone tell me how to find out please ?
[17:18] <Cotowar> 1 sec, im on gnome look getting a new one
[17:18] <mlissner> Anyone else have the problem in Compiz with mouse scrolling switching the screen randomly?
[17:19] <vigo> Abracadabra: <name of object> -v,,,I think
[17:19] <Cotowar> just found an icon theme updater
[17:19] <imri303> so Dr_willis you have your penguins running as a background program?
[17:19] <Cotowar> maybe this will help
[17:19] <Finnish_> How do I choose 8-bit colours in Gimp?
[17:19] <Dr_willis> imri303,  yep  xpenguins
[17:19] <Dr_willis> !info xpenguins
[17:19] <vigo> I want the penguins!
[17:20] <imri303> hmmm interesting.  Is it just and X program?  I will try to launch from there and see what happens :) tnx
[17:20] <Abracadabra> vigo: if thwe app is not yet installed, how would you find out ?
[17:20] <fabio_> Cotowar: post a screenshot around
[17:20] <imri303> Abracadabra dpkg -l | grep program name
[17:20] <Dr_willis> imri303,  yep. look for xpenguins in that config. and change it to whatever
[17:20] <Cotowar> 1 sec, ill photobooth my desktop with arrows to what im talking about
[17:21] <imri303> or just dpkg -l program name if you know exactly what you are looking for
[17:21] <vigo> Abracadabra: Check Synaptic, search for it. Then you will see what version and other info there is on it.
[17:22] <mlissner> Nobody else has the random screen switching problem?
[17:22] <imri303> or do what vigo says silly gui users :)
[17:22] <Abracadabra> imri303: thank you, that was exactly what I was looking for
[17:22] <Abracadabra> thank you all

[17:31] <rubberducky> hi, can anyone have a look at my problem? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1069910
[17:32] <Cotowar> i wont accept that answer. there HAS to be a way to change it. otherwise we are slaves to the system like Windows users
[17:32] <Cotowar> except we are goonier and cooler
[17:32] <Schuyler> Cotowar: I just upgraded from Hardy to Intrepid, and when I try to use the NetworkManager applet to connect to a wireless network, I get a dbus(?) error on the console
[17:32] <allquixotic> Does anyone know of a howto guide (unofficial or not, doesn't matter) for running an OpenSolaris 10.0 or later guest on its i86xpv (paravirt-ops enabled) architecture, using Intrepid's built-in KVM and virt-install?
[17:32] <Schuyler> ** (nm-applet:7260): WARNING **: Error in getting active connection 'Vpn' property: (19) Method "Get" with signature "ss" on interface "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" doesn't exist
[17:32] <ikonia> Cotowar: what do y ou want to change ?
[17:32] <Schuyler> I assume it's some kind of dbus issue but
[17:32] <guyiom> man mount
[17:32] <ikonia> Schuyler: look if hal and dbus are running
[17:33] <infomomo> i just installed eeeUbuntu, i dont like it, i think it is a CPU hog, is there another alternative ?
[17:33] <rubberducky> anone?
[17:33] <Cotowar> i want my firefox window to use the same icon as the applications menu shows
[17:33] <ikonia> infomomo: the OS that came with your EEE PC ?
[17:33] <Cotowar> my window uses default, but my apps menu uses a custom
[17:33] <Schuyler> ikonia: it looks like they are, from grepping ps awux
[17:33] <Dr_willis> the menus dont get the icon info from the program  at all.. they get the info from the theme..  :S
[17:34] <allquixotic> infomomo: there are tons of alternatives. if you want minimal CPU usage without extensive tuning, you would likely have to accept certain feature deductions. Try running DSL-Not. It's a very lightweight distro that runs in a tiny amount of RAM and everything is very fast. But is it as featureful as Gnome? No, and no.
[17:34] <jamiejackson> after some finagling, i finally got dual monitor going through "Monitor resolution settings" however, the external monitor flashes at me @60Hz, which is unbearable. the "Monitor Resolution Settings" gui has a refresh rate selector, but it only shows 60Hz, and I'm sure this monitor goes higher. know how to fix that up?
[17:34] <infomomo> ikonia: it is an ApireOne
[17:34] <zagabar> It does for other people.
[17:34] <imri303> infomomo try ubuntu netbook remix
[17:34] <zagabar> What can be wrong?
[17:34] <Cotowar> yea, i have one, but how do i install it them
[17:34] <Cotowar> then*
[17:34] <imri303> I have been playing with it for a couple weeks and UNR is cool
[17:34] <fabio_> Cotowar: find that icon
[17:34] <infomomo> imri303: that's what i just installed in vmware to test and it seems to be a CPU hog
[17:34] <imri303> hmmm
[17:35] <Dr_willis> Cotowar,  drag/drop to the theme manager control-panel window in many cases... to isntall new themes..
[17:35] <Cotowar> i know where its at
[17:35] <imri303> are you using the one with the lpia kernel?
[17:35] <Cotowar> and i did that to install the theme
[17:35] <Cotowar> but all my apps still use defaults when they open

[17:35] <infomomo> that one brother
[17:35] <G-Farkas> Hello, have anybody "nvidia-glx" in the Hardy repos ???
[17:35] <allquixotic> infomomo: Comparing speeds of operating systems natively and within a virtual machine like VMware is misguided.
[17:35] <xxcue> 8GB memory and vmware workstation no problems here
[17:35] <Schuyler> ikonia: I seem to have fixed it with 'apt-get remove --purge network-manager' and then 'apt-get install network-manager-gnome'
[17:35] <imri303> didn't like the lpia one either so I installed ubuntu i386 and added the UNR repo and added it on top with session launchers
[17:35] <Cotowar> i have this archive, i dropped into theme manager and boom all my desktop icons went to the custom set
[17:35] <fabio_> Cotowar: i think the trouble is /usr/share/pixmaps
[17:35] <allquixotic> infomomo: VMware imposes an extremely high amount of overhead in terms of RAM usage, CPU consumption, and disk I/O speed. In other words, VMware is dog slow.
[17:35] <PeskyJ> ok, I don't like ecryptfs - it leaves filenames plaintext and it magically automounts - god knows where it gets my password from, sneaky little git
[17:35] <infomomo> allquixotic:  iknow but it gives a little idea right ?
[17:36] <Dr_willis> gnome-look.org proberly has tutorials on making new icon themes.   the apps will use the icons they are programd to use.. You would need to change the theme icon to be the same as the program app icon I imagine. I tend to disable all the icons I can. :) so thats about all i kmnow on the topic
[17:36] <Cotowar> ill look
[17:36] <fabio_> you have to change that link
[17:36] <ikonia> Schuyler: re-linked ito dbus
[17:36] <Cotowar> alright
[17:36] <zagabar> i am trying to play a game in ubuntu that should work, but the keyboard doesn't make the game react. What can be wrong?
[17:36] <imri303> allquixotic very true
[17:36] <infomomo> does one of you guys own a aspire one >? and if so, what do your recommend ?
[17:36] <PeskyJ> and encfs doesn't seem to work with programs like evolution that want to create file locks... is there anything else?
[17:36] <Cotowar> ill look at gnome look some more, and in the pixmaps
[17:36] <allquixotic> infomomo: Trying to say "if VMware makes it this slow, it can't be much better on real hardware" is a fatally flawed assertion. VMware gives an __enormous__ performance hit. If you are planning to install the operating system natively, make no attempts to evaluate its native performance on the basis of virtualized performance.
[17:36] <imri303> I have many netbooks the aspire one being one of those :)
[17:36] <twordley> infomomo: i can't sudo to run the command you suggested
[17:36] <fabio_> just make it point to the new icon set location
[17:37] <imri303> I run ubuntu i386 with UNR launchers
[17:37] <Cotowar> fabio, you are right
[17:37] <Cotowar> thank you sir
[17:37] <fabio_> it's a little bug indeed
[17:37] <Cotowar> do i change them simply by deleting the photo and copying my new one in?
[17:37] <fabio_> icons SHOULD change
[17:38] <infomomo> twordley: try it without sudo then
[17:38] <allquixotic> infomomo: In VMware it once took me four hours to install OpenSolaris 10.0, yet it installed in 12 minutes running it natively. The entire install, the VMware process was pegging my CPU as viewed by top on the host. So yes - you aren't getting any meaningful data on native performance from VMware.
[17:38] <Dr_willis> infomomo,  i just use the normal  ubuntu on mine. i do tweak it following the wiki pages
[17:38] <infomomo> or log in as root, simple :D
[17:38] <L|nuxPS2_> imri303: of all the netbooks you own which is your favorite - i'm looking at getting one soon
[17:38] <imri303> infomomo try this page as well it is for the mini9 but works for the acer as well http://www.ubuntumini.com/2008/10/installing-ubuntu-netbook-remix.html
[17:38] <twordley> infomomo: how would i login as root?  you mean recovery console?

[17:38] <imri303> I like the lenovo ideapad s10e the best so far
[17:39] <Cotowar> how would i make it point to the new location? just make the pixmaps folder a shortcut to my new sets folder?

[17:40] <Cotowar> fabio, how do i make the /usr/share/pixmaps point to the new icon set?
[17:40] <allquixotic> twordley: Do you get an error message? Also, are you able to login with *the same password you try to sudo with* as your regular user, from e.g. the gdm login screen?
[17:40] <quibbler> !logs

[17:41] <DonaldShimoda> hi.
[17:41] <fabio_> Cotowar: right
[17:42] <allquixotic> twordley: If you can't login to gdm as your regular user/password, then something might be screwed up in the authentication subsystem. I'd point at PAM as a possibility.
[17:42] <Cotowar> how do i do it though?

[17:42] <twordley> allquixotic:  yes there were some pam updates i believe.... any ideas where to start looking?
[17:42] <DonaldShimoda> theres any helper like make menuconfig or is only by hand?
[17:42] <VaSy> how do i register my nick name
[17:43] <Pici> !register | VaSy
[17:43] <VaSy> thanks ubottu
[17:43] <fabio_> /usr/share/pixmaps  --> /home/fabio/.icons/Human-O2/48x48/apps
[17:43] <allquixotic> twordley: /etc/pam.d/common-auth is one possibility, but I think, if you are using a standard version of Ubuntu, you should not even encounter this sort of issue. Unless you have custom software that plays with PAM.
[17:44] <fabio_> Cotowar: keep the old folder, just create a link to your application icon folder (ln -s ....)
[17:44] <allquixotic> twordley: If you have never set your root password before using `passwd root`, and you can't sudo, then rebooting Ubuntu into the option in the boot menu that says (recovery console) at the end will let you get a root shell and make configuration changes, at least.
[17:44] <allquixotic> twordley: So you're not "stuck without ability to login as root" - hopefully - if recovery works properly.
[17:45] <enthused> is there anyone in here with experience successfully preseeding an install where the preseed file is hosted on a network?
[17:45] <Cotowar> im bad at this, you're saying go to terminal, cd to my pixmaps, then do ln -s new_icon_folder_name?
[17:45] <enthused> !preseed
[17:46] <fabio_> Cotowar: give me you icon location (newicon set)
[17:47] <Cotowar> username/Themes/"Icon Sets"/"black-white 2 Style"/"black-white 2 Style
[17:47] <jcase> im having issues, ive googled and looked. At night when I screen lock (too keep kids off if they wake up befor eme) my network access dies on me
[17:47] <jcase> i found simular reports online
[17:47] <Cotowar> the thing is though, there are several different folders in there, all holding different types of apps.
[17:48] <jcase> any ideas?
[17:48] <VaSy> HI ubottu : I want to change password for my nick name..
[17:48] <Cotowar> like i have a scalable folder, a 256, actions, status, and a ton others
[17:48] <cooldduuudde> is der a way to schedule LAN enable and disable?
[17:48] <VaSy> can you suggest me the command
[17:48] <Mba7eth> do any one knows how to unlock Huawei E180 HSPA usb modem ?
[17:48] <Pici> VaSy: Please join #freenode for registration help. ubottu is a bot.
[17:48] <Dr_willis> VaSy,  'passwd' command
[17:48] <enthused> is there anyone in here with experience successfully preseeding an install where the preseed file is hosted on a network?
[17:48] <Dr_willis> VaSy,  and ubottu  is a bot. :)
[17:48] <VaSy> Pici thanks
[17:49] <VaSy> oops.. sorry guys....
[17:49] <Dr_willis> VaSy,  oh ya mean the nickserv irc password. :) lol..  '/msg nickserv help'
[17:49] <fabio_> Cotowar:  the easy way to do it....
[17:50] <fabio_> go in the new icon set location (48x48 -> apps), then copy those files and replace those in /usr/share/pixmaps
[17:50] <Mba7eth> does any one knows how to unlock Huawei E180 HSPA usb modem ?
[17:50] <fabio_> just make a backup copy
[17:50] <fabio_> Mba7eth: why unlock ?
[17:50] <fabio_> Mba7eth: my huawey e 169 works fine
[17:51] <imri303> Dr_willis I tried executing nm editor as a background program and it works :) thanks! Still would like to make it launch via the Actions menu :(
[17:51] <Mba7eth> I want to use another carrier
[17:51] <Cotowar> okay
[17:51] <Cotowar> i'll try that
[17:51] <allquixotic> !ot | Mba7eth
[17:51] <imri303> If anyone has any insight as to why it gives me a sig 17 on execution from customcommand in GDM would be greatly appreciated :) thanks
[17:52] <Mba7eth> thanks :)
[17:52] <allquixotic> Mba7eth: That topic is possibly illegal in some jurisdictions, and even if it's legal, that has absolutely nothing to do with the operating system installed on your computer (e.g. Ubuntu).
[17:52] <Marfi> exit
[17:52] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[17:52] <Mba7eth> allquixotic: I though i might find some help here
[17:52] <Mba7eth> : :)
[17:53] <allquixotic> Mba7eth: I have known people in #ubuntu-offtopic who actively engage in such conversations and there aren't usually protests against it. But this here is the Ubuntu support channel
[17:53] <Mba7eth> thanks dude
[17:53] <Mba7eth> :)
[17:53] <dgetsman> anybody know if I can run ubuntu 8.04LTS server on a machine w/IBM 00P2731 2 Way 1.2Ghz Power4+ Processor for 7028-6C4 6E4 RS/600 PSERIES 630 and whether that'd be a 32 or 64 bit version?
[17:54] <Cotowar> it says that my old icons are links to a different folder when i look at the properties
[17:54] <Cotowar> what the heck
[17:54] <EugenMayer> what is generaly used as VNC client or simply remote desktop between to different ubuntu clients
[17:54] <quibbler> !who | Cotowar
[17:54] <allquixotic> dgetsman: IBM has invested a lot of resources into supporting their hardware on Linux, so I would wager that it would probably boot... as for the 32/64... I really have no idea. Let me do some googling? Maybe you can help me?
[17:55] <Scunizi> Strange .. a desktop background that I created and have been using for some time will no longer display as the background.. why would that happen?
[17:55] <Cotowar> fabio, it says that the original images in the pixmaps folder are linking to a different folder where the real icon is, though i can't seem to find that folder
[17:56] <allquixotic> dgetsman: My initial investigation indicates that your "Power4+" processor is of the PowerPC genre. That means it's neither x86 nor x86_64; its architecture on Linux is called ppc
[17:56] <allquixotic> dgetsman: I don't know if ppc even _has_ 32 vs. 64-bit.
[17:56] <jcase> ok, i loose my network everynight while using screen lock. I also have ipv6 tunnel and a bridge to virtual box, there are not related errors in /var/log/messages
[17:56] <jcase> any ideas?

[17:58] <Marfi> thanks. testing irssi
[17:58] <Caplain1> I am in tarpon
[17:59] <jcase> anyone know why networking would stop working at night while screenlock is on?
[17:59] <jcase> i found simular reports on google
[17:59] <jcase> and i know how to restart it, but i need to stop it from happening
[17:59] <jcase> or i can ssh in while out of town
[17:59] <Caplain1> jcase: screen lock? hmmm
[17:59] <Caplain1> sounds bizzare
[18:00] <Caplain1> does it only happen at night?
[18:00] <jcase> well i found several reports of it
[18:00] <jcase> well night is the only time i leave it screen locked forany length of time

[18:00] <Caplain1> mac9416: #python
[18:00] <Caplain1> jcase: sounds like a bug
[18:00] <_VI_> jcase: well look at those sites just incase
[18:01] <mac9416> Caplain1: Thanks. Good idea.
[18:01] <_VI_> cause it does sound like a bug
[18:01] <jcase> lol

[18:01] <egc> easy question:  how do i open the "add user" gui with root privs?  it wont let me create a new user
[18:02] <cumulus007> why is the server of cdimages.ubuntu.com so slow?
[18:02] <mrglinux> :-D
[18:02] <mac9416> Caplain1: /join #python requires me to be "identified" to join. How do I get identified?

[18:03] <etko_> how can i get exact version?
[18:03] <mrglinux> :-D

[18:03] <_VI_> mrglinux: control you?
[18:03] <Pici> etko_: lsb_release -a
[18:03] <egc> quibbler: oddly, its greyed out
[18:03] <mrglinux> _VI_: hmm
[18:03] <mrglinux> i've be in another channel o f ubuntu
[18:03] <Caplain1> jcase: it could still be relevant. you may have to find an alternative to locking your screen until the bug is resolved
[18:03] <allquixotic> cumulus007: In 2005 I read a case study where it costs $1.50 USD per 700MB CD image download, due to the cost of bandwidth... the server is probably at or near capacity, so it's busy.
[18:03] <jcase> hrm
[18:03] <jcase> tonight i wont lock it
[18:03] <mw46> hi, anybody else seeing a supend/resume problem on a Lenovo T60p after the latest 2.6.27-11-generic/fglrx update??
[18:03] <mrglinux> thete were crazy from me and they back me here
[18:03] <jcase> and see if it happens
[18:04] <mac9416> Caplain1: OK, I'm registered. How do I identify?
[18:04] <mrglinux> :-D
[18:04] <cumulus007> allquixotic: okay
[18:04] <mrglinux> i just like them
[18:04] <allquixotic> cumulus007: It would cost at least another $5000 to $15,000 USD per year for another unmetered 100MBPS connection to support more simultaneously CD image downloads, or faster ones.

[18:07] <etko_> after update last week ago acer extensa 5221, ubuntu 8.04.2 hardy
[18:07] <mac9416> Caplain1: Broad suggestion, but thanks for your time.
[18:07] <etko_> correction acer extensa 5220
[18:07] <allquixotic> cumulus007: I don't honestly know, but according to http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ it would appear there are no .torrent files, so I would surmise not
[18:07] <Caplain1> mac9416: look for a template
[18:07] <mikewu> mac9416: Try looking at the source/forums for pypanel
[18:08] <allquixotic> cumulus007: Perhaps one reason is that if you're generating a new image *every single day*, any given node swarm on a torrent with a lifetime of less than a day is not going to have many seeders, so the server ends up doing all the work anyway
[18:08] <allquixotic> cumulus007: Torrents get healthy over time, not in the short turnaround time of <= 24 hours
[18:08] <mac9416> mikewu: pypanel. Right. Thanks.
[18:08] <cumulus007> allquixotic: yeah, I understand that
[18:08] <ozzloy> sudo dhclient eth0; shows that the machine tries to connect, but gets no response.  this exact hardware was connecting last night.  how do i trouble shoot from here?
[18:09] <quibbler> egc: look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=784272
[18:09] <allquixotic> cumulus007: I do believe cdimage is a round robin server that parcels out the workload to official mirrors, but it could very well be that all the mirrors are overloaded too, since Free Software in general is so popular these days, and it's almost always serviced via download (including updates)
[18:09] <mkro> Hi
[18:09] <ozzloy> nevermind, it appears to be connecting now
[18:10] <mac9416> mikewu: It looks like pypanel is a replacement for gnome-panel. I'm looking for a way to develop a tray applet for gnome-panel.
[18:10] <Cotowar> where might this directory be "../../lib/firefox-3.0.6/icons"
[18:10] <mkro> Hi, i need help,,, somebody speak spanish?
[18:10] <Pici> !es | mkro
[18:10] <egc> quibbler: yeah, i see the same error msg when running that cmd, thanks
[18:10] <etko_> nobody to help me?
[18:11] <nanotube> Cotowar: depends on where you starting from. :) possibly under /usr/lib
[18:11] <mikewu> mac9416: Try looking at this http://www.pygtk.org/articles/applets_arturogf/
[18:11] <Cotowar> thats it
[18:11] <allquixotic> Cotowar: That's a relative path so it's impossible to infer its absolute path without knowledge of the current working directory; however, there is a /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.6 directory, so /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.6/../../lib/firefox-3.0.6/icons would be equivalent to the absolute path /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.6/icons
[18:11] <Cotowar> yea, it doesn't say any more than that, so i wasn't sure
[18:11] <Cotowar> thats though
[18:11] <Cotowar> thanks*
[18:11] <Matic> Hi, someone remind me the command used to check the size of a folder
[18:12] <Matic> please
[18:12] <nanotube> Matic: du -sk <dirname>
[18:12] <Cotowar> yep, found it
[18:12] <Matic> nanotube, thanks man

[18:13] <Jfdzar> hi
[18:14] <Jfdzar> hello
[18:14] <terminhell> hi all
[18:14] <etko_> lspci -v says atheros adapter is disabled
[18:14] <nanotube> Jfdzar: yo
[18:14] <etko_> can you tell me why?
[18:15] <egc> quibbler: it appears to be policykit related
[18:15] <Cotowar> when i want to use the mv command, i do mv filename destination correct
[18:15] <etko_> should i recompile madwifi package like tehy say here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/madwifi-tools/+bug/242080 ?
[18:15] <etko_> please somebody i need to get this working
[18:15] <jhg> is there any way to perform a clean reinstall of wine? i basically need the C drive wiped, i uninstalled and reinstalled wine but the data is still there
[18:15] <quibbler> egc: i hope you know something about policykit..i don't
[18:16] <mac9416> mikewu: Looks like that's getting close. Thanks!
[18:16] <etko_> i also disapled ipv6 cause it was doing me errors on my network
[18:16] <kitche> jhg: delete the ~/.wine directory and have wine the command recreate it
[18:16] <terminhell> did  you hit the radio button on your laptop?
[18:16] <egc> quibbler: i may have to learn ;)
[18:16] <allquixotic> Cotowar: `man mv`. But very simply stated, mv is a combination of a 'rename' and a 'move' command in one, and all arguments except for the last one are moved into the last argument, if it's a folder. Careful, though; if the last argument is an existing file, it gets overwritten.
[18:16] <etko_> could that be the cause
[18:16] <etko_> ?
[18:16] <quibbler> egc: ;-)
[18:16] <egc> quibbler: im still on hardy so maybe its fixed in newer release
[18:16] <egc> oh well
[18:16] <jhg> kitche: i did that also but in applications->wine the directory structure is still there so it seems it caches that somewhere.. any idea where?
[18:16] <etko_> great
[18:16] <int256> what is ubuntu studio ?
[18:17] <Cotowar> jhg, did you try removing wine completely through synaptic? completely removing deletes the config files
[18:17] <egc> commando line i go
[18:17] <terminhell> etko_: what does iwconfig show about your wireless
[18:17] <Mr_Mackee> whats the easy way to add lines to sources.list?
[18:17] <kitche> jhg: in ~/.wine
[18:17] <Dr_willis> removing wine - will NOT remove the .wine dirs in the users homes...
[18:17] <allquixotic> cotowar: If you're a newbie to using `mv`, you should always execute `mv -i` to have the system prompt you if the result of your command will overwrite any files
[18:17] <etko_> terminhell : nothing only eth0 an lo are listed
[18:17] <quibbler> egc: i'm also on hardy and i have not experienced that
[18:17] <kitche> jhg: it won't reset the menu until you log off and back on
[18:17] <terminhell> etko_: ya sounds like drivers
[18:17] <etko_> besides when i cling in network connections to edit adapter ptoperties
[18:18] <egc> quibbler: oh :(
[18:18] <samlesher> anyone have a mce remote and ir receiver for sale for sub $30?
