[17:32] <dPix> st__, pffff must be difficult extracting that from win...
[17:32] <cmyk> instead I get garbled fonts and apps that start up in greek
[17:33] <st__> cmyk, in real greek or in transliterated english?
[17:33] <dPix> sujiths80, yes
[17:33] <cmyk> no idea.
[17:33] <dPix> sujiths80, have you tried jdownloader?
[17:33] <cmyk> I don't even read the greek alphabet
[17:33] <sujiths80> dPix can u tell me the details
[17:33] <st__> cmyk, some wench comlained about similar bug couple of years ago
[17:33] <bobstro> dPix:  f-spot will do redeye and other touchups.
[17:33] <cmyk> I'll try :)
[17:33] <st__> cmyk, *weeks
[17:33] <karlo94> how I can connect in terminal?
[17:34] <st__> karlo94, to what?
[17:34] <Tyzao> can i create the ubuntu cd using debian?
[17:34] <karlo94> to internet
[17:34] <m3asmi> any one know  Good free hosting
[17:34] <dPix> sujiths80, I use to have jDonloader @ win, Im @ ubuntu know, today I tried FreeRapid
[17:34] <glebihan> anygivenname: means the service is not running, try "sudo service smbd start"
[17:34] <st__> karlo94, ifconfig and possibly iwconfig
[17:34] <bobstro> Tyzao:  you can burn the iso image, if that's what you mean.
[17:34] <dPix> sujiths80, what do you want to download exactly?
[17:34] <karlo94> st__, gonna try..
[17:34] <dPix> bobstro, installing, thanks, Ill tell you know :D
[17:35] <cmyk> nice one huh: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/815924/Ubuntu/ubuntu_fubar.png
[17:35] <anygivenname> says: smbd start/running, process 3243
[17:35] <Tyzao> maybe the mac is easier
[17:35] <cmyk> every time I start up, it looks like this.
[17:35] <anygivenname> is it running now ?
[17:35] <glebihan> anygivenname: yes
[17:35] <glebihan> anygivenname: you can check with "sudo service smbd status"
[17:35] <bobstro> cmyk:  some of that look hebrew, i think
[17:35] <sujiths80> Dpix:normally I will download lots of movies and books...
[17:35] <cmyk> I have to go to appearance prefs and select another theme to fix it, *every time*
[17:35] <purpleposeidon> I'm having dependency problems installing apache2; I get a message "ERROR: Module reqtimeout does not exist!"
[17:35] <dPix> sujiths80, using MU and RS right?
[17:35] <st__> cmyk, it's not grrek, it's just some random boxes and litter
[17:36] <cmyk> no, I didn't mean that, it's garbled
[17:36] <sujiths80> dPix :what is that ?
[17:36] <DualProxy> bobstro: command `gpasswd -A` link:http://man.yolinux.com/cgi-bin/man2html?cgi_command=gpasswd
[17:36] <cmyk> that's neither open office nor vlc
[17:36] <dPix> all, do you know how to take out the "Mail" logo near the time @ ubuntu?
[17:36] <cmyk> why is it garbled?
[17:36] <cmyk> should it be? :)
[17:36] <dPix> sujiths80, rapidshare, megaupload...
[17:36] <sujiths80> yes
[17:37] <anygivenname> seems this samba is useless....paste is dimmed when i try to paste file thru remote sharing....although on ubutnu site they said we should use samba
[17:37] <cmyk> is ubuntu easy to use and works out of the box? i guess, they forgot the batteries.
[17:37] <cmyk> lol
[17:37] <sujiths80> and also some book sites...
[17:37] <dPix> sujiths80, then try FreeRapid: http://freerapid-downloader.sweb.cz/FreeRAPID-0.83U1.zip
[17:37] <st__> anygivenname, it depends on many factors, like mount options or user mapping...
[17:37] <patrickv> My desktop freezes up now. I had quarintined some viruses. Which clamav said were from my wife's using Firefox an college related papers.
[17:37] <carlos_> so i used chmod a=rwx Music to change the permissions of my Music folder, it said it changed, but i still cannot cd into that folder as a regular user
[17:37] <ChesterX> cmyk: ubuntu (in my opinion) the easiest linux distribution for starters. Yes you can run it in a virtual box
[17:37] <dPix> sujiths80, that is the last version, people say it is the best program for its purpose
[17:38] <sujiths80> dpix:thank you...
[17:38] <dPix> sujiths80, np ;-)
[17:38] <cmyk> it's english greek, btw: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/815924/Ubuntu/ubuntu-greek-english.png
[17:38] <patrickv> I rebooted and had an ICE authority issue and then no panel or anything on my desktop but wallpaper.
[17:38] <st__> cmyk, I must say I never saw it before, so it's uncommon, could you try some virtual machine instead of parallels?
[17:38] <anygivenname> pls make my life easier....how do I copy & paste files remotely ?
[17:38] <sujiths80> dpix:do u know any software like vmware...I want to involve in ubuntu testing
[17:38] <cmyk> well, I tell, you I didn't mess it up.
[17:38] <bobstro> DualProxy:  ah, new one on me. i'm not familiar with it at all, but it looks like standard tools.
[17:38] <st__> anygivenname, how did you mount remote share first?
[17:39] <MM2> I need a plan. I upgraded my server from 8.04 to 10.04 and it won't boot. It hangs during boot to kernel panic, it can't mount filesystem. I have a LVM-system with SATA-drives. How to find out what is wrong and how to fix it?!
[17:39] <jg47hm> guys i accidentially delete the botom panel from the desktop (which shows  the running applications) how to bring it again????
[17:39] <cmyk> Ubuntu won't take the world by storm this way.
[17:39] <glebihan> !panels | jg47hm
[17:39] <magicianlord> patrickv: what window manager
[17:39] <anygivenname> thru hostname
[17:39] <DrDamnit> is there a linux equivalent of Access that will read access databases?
[17:39] <patrickv> I got on the irc with Clamav. After two hours of tinkering removed the ICE authority issue, but couldn't bring the desktop back to like. Tried reinstalling gnome and nautilus features to no avail. Gnome panels on bottom and top just flash, and mouse freezes.
[17:39] <noisewaterphd> sujiths80: virtualbox
[17:39] <cmyk> I'll see if it's any better on a real netbook
[17:39] <carlos_> so i used chmod a=rwx Music to change the permissions of my Music folder, it said it changed, but i still cannot cd into that folder as a regular user
[17:40] <DrDamnit> is there a linux equivalent of Access that will read access databases?
[17:40] <cmyk> yuck
[17:40] <magicianlord> DrDamnit: not exactly
[17:40] <st__> DrDamnit, try mdbtools + odbc
[17:40] <DualProxy> bobstro: yeah, I believe its a comman tool, so there must be a way to list the admins of groups that you add. Guess I need to more digging. =)
[17:40] <sujiths80> I am facing some problem with virtual box...its not opening
[17:40] <carlos_> can i just not edit permissions of folders in other partitions?
[17:40] <DrDamnit> magicianlord: Is there a databasing program that we can use, and then I'll get someone in India to convert the databases?
[17:40] <magicianlord> DrDamnit: openoffice comes with a database program
[17:41] <cmyk> errm: again, how do I get rid of the friggin greek type face?
[17:41] <DrDamnit> magicianlord: oh........ duh. Thanks.
[17:41] <magicianlord> cmyk: learn greek. or change the locale
[17:41] <noisewaterphd> DrDamnit: mysql, pgsql, firebird, etc...
[17:42] <cmyk> magicianlord: wow, that's user friendly
[17:42] <magicianlord> lol relax
[17:42] <patrickv> I thought their was a command I used once to bring back my icons and desktop. I can't remember what I tried though.
[17:42] <cmyk> language & text? it's set to English
[17:42] <st__> DrDamnit, teoretically any klinux app which supoprts unixodbc shall suffice
[17:42] <DrDamnit> noisewaterphd: I am familiar with mysql (php/mysql programmer), but I have a client that wants to move off windows, but they use access as a DB. So I need the db part + the forms / reporting like access has.
[17:43] <cmyk> what else must I do? get a voodo doll and stick some needles into it?
[17:43] <st__> cmyk, stop calling that greek, it's misleading
[17:43] <cmyk> it's the greek alphabet, damnit
[17:43] <callaghan> Hello, I added Empathy to the "Startup Applications" to get online whenever I login, is there a way to start it minimised into the notification area?
[17:43] <st__> cmyk, where?
[17:43] <sunshinepants> [UNSOLVED] Enabled desktop effects with Intel GPU on 10.10
[17:43] <cmyk> st__: here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/815924/Ubuntu/ubuntu-greek-english.png
[17:43] <mzuverink> this spam bot kick off is in convenient, I vote the idiot who made it voted off the island
[17:44] <ikonia> sunshinepants: [UNSUPPORTED] try #ubuntu+1
[17:44] <magicianlord> lol
[17:44] <magicianlord> there is a command to reset the locale from terminal
[17:44] <magicianlord> there is also a setting in rc.conf
[17:44] <cmyk> nice
[17:44] <purpleposeidon> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+bug/576255  is the thing to fix it
[17:44] <st__> cmyk, yeap, but your previous screens hot shew just a garmage
[17:44] <cmyk> tell that my grandma
[17:45] <sujiths80> what is the good replacement for outlook express in Ubuntu...I am not very much intrested in evolution
[17:45] <cmyk> st__: that's the other problem
[17:45] <magicianlord> does your grandma make good cookies?
[17:45] <magicianlord> i like chocolate chip
[17:45] <greppy> cmyk: is that all of your apps and menus that are doing that?  or just vlc?
[17:45] <cmyk> I guess that's just in the netbook distro
[17:45] <st__> sujiths80, thunderbird should suffice
[17:45] <bobstro> sujiths80:  thunderbird perhaps?
[17:45] <cmyk> the garbling happens after each restart
[17:45] <magicianlord> cmyk: which version
[17:45] <sujiths80> is it better than  evolution ?
[17:45] <bobstro> cmyk:  that's not the normal result on a netbook. this is 10.04 netbook?
[17:45] <st__> sujiths80, except for message database compatibility
[17:46] <mzuverink> I have to say Sylpheed is likghter and I think better and saller than Thunderbirf
[17:46] <bobstro> sujiths80:  that's subjective. it's close to outlook express, not as feature-ful as evolution, which is more like outlook (corporate).
[17:46] <st__> sujiths80, anything including windows internet mail from windows 95 is better than evolution
[17:46] <cmyk> hold on
[17:46] <cmyk> I must say it's fast
[17:46] <cmyk> but, that's about iut
[17:46] <area51pilot> i loaded VLC media player but can not play a DVD ... what should I check?
[17:46] <bobstro> sujiths80:  i'd suggest installing a few alternatives and trying for yourself.
[17:46] <sujiths80> one more clarification...I have created some mail rules in evoltuion but now I am not able to delete it ..how to delete the rules...
[17:47] <st__> i hope when novell get sold soembody take evolution to backyard and put it off
[17:47] <patrickv> Any ideas on restoring that desktop with flashing panels and mouse? I thought there might be a script that could restore it. I tried reinstalling gnome and nautilus features.
[17:47] <bobstro> cmyk:  you're having an unusual problem. hopefully, there's a simple fix. ubuntu is quite nice on a netbook.
[17:47] <glebihan> area51pilot: did you try another DVD ?
[17:47] <ikonia> ok chaps, can we please check the /topic in here
[17:48] <area51pilot> glebihan:The DVD is a working DVD
[17:48] <area51pilot> I can play backup DVD's from my drive ... but they are also decrypted
[17:48] <st__> area51pilot, you're missing a hacking library to steal dvd content?
[17:48] <ikonia> !dvd | area51pilot
[17:48] <carlos_> does anyone know why you cant change the permission on a folder in a different partition?
[17:48] <ikonia> carlos_: what is the file system on that partition
[17:49] <st__> carlos_, because mount options override filesystem permissions
[17:49] <magicianlord> area51pilot: are you still having some problem
[17:49] <glebihan> carlos_: you can, except if it's an ntfs partition for example
[17:49] <carlos_> its my mac partition
[17:49] <Karen_m> if the DOCS say go to system->admin->printers ... and it's not there, what do I do?  All docs reference that path...
[17:49] <ikonia> carlos_: that file system is read only, that's why
[17:49] <sujiths80>  one more clarification...I have created some mail rules in evoltuion but now I am not able to delete it ..how to delete the rules...
[17:49] <patrickv> #ubuntu-us-ne
[17:49] <carlos_> but i can read wite other folders in that partition
[17:49] <carlos_> just not my Music folder in there
[17:50] <area51pilot> st__:I dont steal content .. I have kids and they are hell on a brand new DVD!
[17:50] <Karen_m> how do i setup a printer on ubuntu?
[17:50] <st__> sujiths80, try to delete whichever .folder evolution left in your home
[17:50] <area51pilot> magicianlord: yes...still have an issue
[17:50] <Injection33> karen_m, in 10.10 beta, it's system>admin>printing
[17:50] <magicianlord> you shouldnt
[17:50] <magicianlord> open dvd from the menu with vlc
[17:50] <glebihan> Karen_m: run "system-config-printer"
[17:50] <st__> area51pilot, you cannot watch DVD if you haven't paid for device you use
[17:50] <magicianlord> or open iso file from hdd
[17:50] <cmyk> bobstro: where do I find the version?
[17:50] <sujiths80> st_:but it will delete my mail also right ?
[17:50] <StaRetji> ehm, I have very strange problem in Ubuntu Lucid, can't write capital letters, shift simply doesn't help, caps lock neither :D Wtf?
[17:51] <ikonia> !wtf | StaRetji
[17:51] <mzuverink> how do you get a person in charge? whats the command
[17:51] <magicianlord> StaRetji: scr lk
[17:51] <magicianlord> or num lk
[17:51] <ikonia> mzuverink: what do you want to do ?
[17:51] <st__> sujiths80, not sure, watch for folder structure
[17:51] <Karen_m> Injection33, in ubuntu 10.04 that path does not exist.
[17:51] <mzuverink> chankd for unaffiliated to my true affiliation
[17:51] <Karen_m> Glebihan, it says it does not exist
[17:51] <Injection33> katen_m, i private messaged ou the command for run the printer config
[17:52] <bobstro> cmyk:  well... if your system were usable, it'd be easier. can you do ctrl-alt-f1 to get to a terminal (ctrl-alt-f7 or f8 to return to gui). login and try lsb_release -d. or read the cd or iso name!
[17:52] <st__> Karen_m, it's menus in top panel
[17:52] <Injection33> karen_m, type system-config-printer in the terminal
[17:52] <StaRetji> magicianlord: thx man, but it doesn't help :/
[17:52] <glebihan> Karen_m: install it : sudo apt-get install system-config-printer-gnome
[17:52] <Injection33> karen_m, make that sudo system-config-printer
[17:52] <mzuverink> ikonia, any ideas
[17:52] <ikonia> mzuverink: for what
[17:53] <ikonia> mzuverink: you've not told me what you want to do
[17:53] <Injection33> glebihan, should have it already installed
[17:53] <mzuverink> Ik
[17:53] <mzuverink> k
[17:53] <cmyk> bobstro: I downloaded:  ubuntu-10.04-netbook-i386.iso
[17:53] <mzuverink> k
[17:53] <FloodBot2> mzuverink: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:53] <magicianlord> hmm
[17:53] <Karen_m> why would it not be installed by default?  seems crazy :)   thank you, installing that
[17:53] <mzuverink> ik
[17:53] <ikonia> mzuverink: stop
[17:53] <bobstro> cmyk:  ok, that's what i've used on a dell netbook.
[17:53] <ikonia> mzuverink: please explain what you want to do
[17:53] <st__> if I purging some package, will it also delete its caches, databases etc?
[17:53] <glebihan> Injection33: sure but apparently it's not
[17:53] <cmyk> shell says the same
[17:53] <bobstro> cmyk:  did it look ok booted as a live cd?
[17:53] <ikonia> st__: should do
[17:54] <cmyk> no, wait, 10.04.1 LTS
[17:54] <area51pilot> st__: What are you talking about ... everything I possess is paid for and legal .... I am backing up DVD's I OWN on computer hardware I OWN!
[17:54] <bobstro> cmyk:  ok, that's good.
[17:54] <ikonia> !dvd | area51pilot
[17:54] <cmyk> no, it never looked okay.
[17:54] <Injection33> glebihan, system-config-printer works for me maybe system-config-printer-gnome doesnt'
[17:54] <st__> what parameters should I give to cifs so it worked exactly as Samba?
[17:54] <cmyk> I just installed it as a vm, didn't try the live cd
[17:54] <ikonia> st__: should be the same
[17:54] <st__> area51pilot, you're backing up DVD in VLC? lol
[17:55] <glebihan> Injection33: system-config-printer does not work for Karen_m
[17:55] <st__> area51pilot, you own the computer, you don't own the decoder
[17:55] <cmyk> wanted to test out acrobat reader on it. The PC version craps out on js stuff after a couple of hours run time.
[17:55] <mzuverink> ikonia, change my affiliation to the correct affiliation, and i am sorry about the flooding, blam it on my 3 year old
[17:55] <greppy> st__: I've ripped dvd's that I own using VLC, but lately I just use dd to make an iso.
[17:55] <Karen_m> I've got it installed now, it's up .. i'm just adding a new printer.. thanmk you!
[17:55] <ikonia> mzuverink: what afiiliation ?
[17:55] <bobstro> cmyk:  i use the alternative pdf viewer evince (the default).
[17:55] <glebihan> Karen_m: you're welcome
[17:55] <ikonia> mzuverink: do you mean your freenode cloak ?
[17:55] <anygivenname> software center says I have FTP client installed....how can I find it ?
[17:55] <ikonia> anygivenname: type "ftp"
[17:55] <cmyk> bobstro: does it support javascript?
[17:55] <erUSUL> anygivenname: Places>Connect to Server
[17:56] <mzuverink> currently it day unaffiliated I need uy yo say packetpenguin
[17:56] <bobstro> cmyk:  it might be worth trying the livecd just to confirm it's not something related to virtual setup. or can you boot it as livecd in your virtual setup?
[17:56] <ivan_> hi, can anyone tell me what is the most recommended video editor for ubuntu ?
[17:56] <magicianlord> greppy: what is the equivalent of dvdshrink ?
[17:56] <ikonia> mzuverink: join the channel #freenode and talk to staff
[17:56] <glebihan> anygivenname: I guess you're looking for a gui ? you can try gftp
[17:56] <bobstro> cmyk:  probably not javascript. if it did, i'd disable it!
[17:56] <greppy> magicianlord: no idea.
[17:56] <Scunizi> anygivenname: basic install has ftp client but it's cli.. if you're looking for a gui ftp client look at gftp
[17:56] <st__> nope, cifs cannot authenticate on widnows machine, but samba with same paramenters can :(
[17:56] <cmyk> haha
[17:56] <mzuverink> ok
[17:56] <area51pilot> st__: show me where I can buy one that works well under Linux and I will BUY it
[17:56] <cmyk> I need js for a welcome screen (just for the darn clock)
[17:56] <area51pilot> :P
[17:56] <magicianlord> greppy: dats wut you need, dawg
[17:57] <ikonia> try #javascript channel
[17:57] <anas_akour> hey guys anybody know how can i upgrade Empathy 2.30.2 to 2.31.90, using ubuntu 10.04
[17:57] <anygivenname> i am trying to connect remotely to ubuntu in a way that i can copy & paste files
[17:57] <bobstro> area51pilot:  st__ is being literal, and is not incorrect. however, you are hardly the only person running linux desiring to do this. just check out the urls provided and you'll be all set.
[17:57] <greppy> magicianlord: nope, dd works just fine, then I can stream the image over wifi to the PC plugged into my tv :)
[17:57] <cmyk> dude, I have no problem with js, but with ubuntu
[17:57] <anygivenname> so I thought FTP is a good channel
[17:57] <ikonia> cmyk: what's the issue with ubuntu ?
[17:57] <Scunizi> area51pilot: follow the link provided earlier for multimedia issues and it will explain in there how to get the decoder for dvd
[17:57] <magicianlord> anas_akour: cannot be done. updated to the next ubuntu, or use a rolling release.
[17:57] <bobstro> cmyk:  yes, i'm just commenting on evince capabilities.
[17:57]  * cmyk won't reapeat himself for the 3rd time
[17:57] <bobstro> cmyk:  there is an acrobat version available too.
[17:57] <magicianlord> greppy: stream over wifi???? wowowowowow
[17:57] <anas_akour> ok dude thx for answering
[17:57] <area51pilot> bobstro: thx
[17:57] <bobstro> cmyk:  but let's get your ubu working 1st
[17:57] <ikonia> cmyk: then you won't get help -
[17:58] <area51pilot> Scunizi: Thx
[17:58] <cmyk> bobstro: I have that installed of course. Works way better than on windoze
[17:58] <anygivenname> i am currently connecting to my ubuntu machine remotely & have full control except that I can not copy & paste to it
[17:58] <bobstro> ikonia:  he's getting mangled fonts installing 10.04 under parallels.
[17:58] <ivan_> hi, any good video editor recommendation?
[17:58] <Scunizi> area51pilot: np.. basically it's listing the medibuntu repos and getting libdvdcssxx
[17:58] <greppy> magicianlord: yup, works just fine :)
[17:59] <cmyk> ikonia: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/815924/Ubuntu/ubuntu_fubar.png
[17:59] <cmyk> nice, huh?
[17:59] <bobstro> cmyk:  i'm quite fond of the evince viewer, but it may lack some features.
[17:59] <sunshinepants> ivan_: i've used openshot.  it's basic but it works.
[17:59] <cmyk> vanilla install
[17:59] <lapsusbrutus> Hi guys!  Thanks to all for an wonderful OS!! Linux rock.      Ive got a problem:  Last Kernel 2.6.32-25-generic broke my fglrx.  Ive got no 2d or 3d.  Should I install radeons proprietary driver all over?  Would that be the best way to fix it?
[17:59] <cmyk> as long as it does full screen :)
[17:59] <lapsusbrutus> I use HD4850
[17:59] <bobstro> cmyk:  i'm ot at all familiar with parallels, so unsure if this is just a glitch.
[17:59] <magicianlord> lapsusbrutus: nice card
[17:59] <ikonia> cmyk: that looks like graphical mangling
[17:59] <cmyk> it very well could be
[17:59] <ikonia> cmyk: is that 10.10
[18:00] <cmyk> ikonia: 10.04.1
[18:00] <ikonia> cmyk: is it 10.10 ?
[18:00] <magicianlord> acrobat is so horrid on gun/linux
[18:00] <lapsusbrutus> :)  YEah love it.. A bit old and noisy,  but overkill for my uses :p
[18:00] <ikonia> ah, it looks like a graphical glitch rather than a font issue
[18:00] <bobstro> magicianlord:  i find evince viewer works just fine.
[18:00] <glebihan> magical: don't use it then...
[18:00] <cmyk> ikonia: it disapears if I switch themes back and forth. but it's always like this after a restart
[18:00] <st__> magicianlord, sadly evince is worse
[18:00] <glebihan> magicianlord: : don't use it then...
[18:00] <magicianlord> yes, bobstro. or xpdf
[18:00] <magicianlord> st__: at least it launches quickly
[18:00] <ikonia> cmyk: glitch then
[18:01] <cmyk> ikonia: the font issue is the other issue: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/815924/Ubuntu/ubuntu-greek-english.png
[18:01] <ikonia> cmyk: I have something similar on my intel card where the screen jumps to the left a bit, I rotate the cuve and it's back
[18:01] <magicianlord> cmyk: like green olives?
[18:01] <st__> evince had horrible time with unrecognized pdfs
[18:01] <cmyk> ikonia: I suspect it's parallels fault
[18:01] <magicianlord> unrecognized?
[18:01] <magicianlord> what does that even mean
[18:01] <st__> magicianlord, which has no decoded text
[18:01] <cmyk> hehe
[18:01] <magicianlord> no idea
[18:01] <patrickv> Does anyone have any advice on bringing back a desktop which has flashing gnome panels and mouse and no icons? I only have wallpaper.
[18:02] <magicianlord> patrickv: install openbox, tint2, conky, and nitrogen to replace gnome
[18:02] <bobstro> st__:  i've run literally gigs of pdfs through it with no problems, but i don't doubt that there may be some that cause problems. still, for 99% of what i do, it suffices.
[18:02] <cmyk> well, I will try it on real hardware tomorrow. I sure hope it's a tad better
[18:03] <bobstro> cmyk:  stick with it. i think you'll like it.
[18:03] <cmyk> i do, if I could only read it! :)
[18:03] <bobstro> cmyk:  did you enable enhanced graphics or anything of the sort?
[18:03] <anygivenname> i am connected to my ubuntu machine remotely...how can I use gFTP to transfer files to/from ?
[18:03] <bobstro> cmyk:  it was like this at initial start, right?
[18:03] <cmyk> bobstro: yep
[18:03] <patrickv> Will that bring back old desktop or bring up something else?
[18:04] <Pici> anygivenname: How are you connected to it?
[18:04] <bobstro> anygivenname:  how are you connected remotely?
[18:04] <cmyk> bobstro: I really suspect the hardware drivers (parallel tools).
[18:04] <st__> anygivenname, if ftp is setup and allowed via dfirwall
[18:04] <bobstro> cmyk:  a likely culprit!
[18:04] <cmyk> but it starts up in like 10 seconds
[18:04] <bobstro> cmyk:  i suspect you're not the first to do this though. maybe the gods of google will smile upon you.
[18:04] <anygivenname> using remote sharing thru a hostname
[18:05] <st__> cmyk, try http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads first
[18:05] <cmyk> bobstro: right. But I'll find out with the real box
[18:05] <coz_> jpgnizak, did you get that issue solved?
[18:05] <Pici> anygivenname: Can you clarify what exactly that is?
[18:05] <cmyk> st__: nice! thanks!
[18:05] <anygivenname> i have full control of the machine except a way to paste file to it
[18:06] <bobstro> anygivenname:  what is the remote sharing software you are using?
[18:06] <dougsko> anyone here successfully tether a blackberry curve through the network manager?
[18:06] <Tekk_> where are the keys for encrypted partitions kept? I'm thinkinkg about moving to another distro but I want to keep my /home
[18:07] <st__> Tekk_, decrypt it first?
[18:07] <magicianlord> how do you show the MAC address of your computer
[18:07] <uman> Hi, sound comes out of my laptop speakers even when I have headphones plugged in. I do not experience this behavior in Windows.
[18:07] <uman> Any ideas?
[18:07] <patrickv> So sudo apt-get install openbox tint2 conky nitrogen
[18:07] <st__> magicianlord, ifconfig
[18:07] <dagny_taggart> magicianlord: ifconfig
[18:07] <Tekk_> st__: no way I can just move the key?
[18:07] <greppy> magicianlord: ifconfig eth0
[18:07] <bobstro> dougsko:  i'm trying to do the same with an htc. had it working but lost the notes.
[18:08] <st__> Tekk_, which encryption is set up?
[18:08] <magicianlord> what mac address is our unique id that identifies the computer? or connection only
[18:08] <magicianlord> yes?
[18:08] <uman> magicianlord: the computer
[18:08] <greppy> magicianlord: ethernet port only
[18:08] <st__> magicianlord, 1 interface, 1 unique MAC
[18:08] <greppy> magicianlord: if you have multiple NICs you will have multiple MACs
[18:08] <magicianlord> so the computer can be found using this info
[18:09] <m3asmi> exist any "hex-viewer" in ubuntu package  to open the .DLL
[18:09] <anygivenname> bobstro, I am using ubuntu remote sharing desktop sharing
[18:09] <vithos> is the read/write benchmark in disk utility destructive?
[18:09] <magicianlord> HWaddr then
[18:09] <bobstro> magicianlord:  well, it can be changed.
[18:09] <Tekk_> st__: I used the encrypted home directory option during install and use ecryptfs-mount-private to unencrypt
[18:09] <Tekk_> dont know beyont that
[18:09] <Tekk_> beyond*
[18:09] <dougsko> bobstro: right off the bat, the box to select your device was greyed out for me, even though i had a bluetooth connection working
[18:09] <bobstro> magicianlord:  every mac address should be unique, so it can be part of forensics.
[18:09] <magicianlord> ok bobstro
[18:09] <dougsko> bobstro: freakin pain in the butt
[18:09] <magicianlord> is the mac address trasmitted over the internet
[18:10] <bobstro> dougsko:  may be completely different for yours, but i had to create a device under /dev, set up ppp to connect.
[18:10] <st__> magicianlord, no, it lives only to first router
[18:10] <bobstro> magicianlord:  probably not. they stay local to subnet.
[18:10] <greppy> magicianlord: the first 6 chars of the MAC address identify the manufacturer, I have seen some that have reused a MAC address on a device, that can be a pain.
[18:10] <moegreen> anybody got time to fix my grub..i really dont want to reinstall windows then linux again.. PM me
[18:10] <magicianlord> some internet places use your MAC address to limit internet time
[18:10] <bobstro> magicianlord:  not to say something *couldn't* transmit it, but normal ip won't send it.
[18:10] <magicianlord> so they must have access to it
[18:10] <dougsko> bobstro: ok. ive done that with a verizon phone before. i was hoping to take a nice and easy, network manager route this time
[18:11] <magicianlord> thatis a privacy violation
[18:11] <greppy> magicianlord: that's usually a local provider like a coffeeshop or hotel.
[18:11] <bobstro> magicianlord:  they are probably local... the router connecting you to the internet is suspect.
[18:11] <bobstro> dougsko:  it is wonderful using my usb modem.
[18:11] <magicianlord> what is suspect
[18:11] <st__> magicianlord, no, you must be identified in order to use service
[18:11] <bobstro> magicianlord:  well... it's sent with every packet on the local subnet, so not really a violation.
[18:11] <magicianlord> so they can then identify which website you went to, and then tie it to your computer, whether connected now or later or not at all
[18:12] <bobstro> magicianlord:  ip allows them to, but that doesn't mean they do it. so ... maybe.
[18:12] <Tekk_> st__: okay, any idea how I could decrypt it...?
[18:12] <greppy> magicianlord: your IP address will be used for that more than a MAC address, unless they go to your ISP or the coffeeshop you were using.
[18:12] <bobstro> magicianlord:  if they are at all clueful, they will have terms of service that you agree to that spell this all out.
[18:12] <dougsko> bobstro: to be honest, i dont even know if my carrier allows it. my phone has a DUN profile, but i dont think that necessarily means its possible
[18:12] <greppy> The ISP is the one that can map the MAC to an IP.
[18:12] <bobstro> magicianlord:  you agree to the ToS, they are off the hook.
[18:13] <st__> magicianlord, imagine me coming to ypur phone company, calling your name and getting your call log without identification
[18:13] <bobstro> dougsko:  does it have wifi?
[18:13] <st__> !pm > tekk_
[18:13] <bobstro> dougsko:  you've seen the software that turns phone into little hotspot?
[18:13] <st__> Tekk_, i'm checking it up
[18:13] <Tekk_> ah, okay
[18:13] <dougsko> bobstro: no my phone doesnt have wifi. though thatd be nice :/
[18:14] <magicianlord> st__: is that what they are doing then
[18:14] <bobstro> magicianlord:  how do you know they are actually capturing that info?
[18:14] <dougsko> bobstro: if i have it tethered though, technically it shouldnt be too hard to use the wifi card in my computer to do the same thing
[18:15] <mzuverink> what is the command to get an op?  Sorry off topic, desperate...
[18:15] <Tekk_> mzuverink: su
[18:15] <bobstro> dougsko:  probably. what i was hoping to do was not have to tether. just wifi connect to phone and use 3g from there.
[18:15] <Xase> mzuverink, op ???
[18:15] <jappiecr> my network connections does not show up (anymore!) in my panel, how do i activate/get to show this again?
[18:15] <magicianlord> bobstro: they cant be potentially. thats the point
[18:15] <st__> Tekk_, I believe it's stored in partition itself
[18:15] <mzuverink> As in an operator
[18:15] <Xase> What do you mean, 'get an op'
[18:15] <IdleOne> mzuverink: How can I help you?
[18:15] <halvors> Have it been released updates to maverick in the last 12 hours? I haven't god updates since past-yesterday...
[18:15] <greppy> mzuverink: a channel op?
[18:15] <AbhiJit> mzuverink, you can meet all the ubuntu channels op in #ubuntu-ops channel
[18:16] <lhavelund> mzuverink: Hi. Join us in #ubuntu-ops if you want a channel operator.
[18:16] <dougsko> bobstro: well, hey, if ya have the phone to rock that, then thatd be great
[18:16] <mzuverink> KK
[18:16] <bobstro> magicianlord:  they could, sure. you can also be observed walking on the street. i don't consider that a violation of privacy unless it's actually done though. there are tools for privacy if it really concerns you.
[18:16] <magicianlord> if you change the hwaddress/mac with ifconfig, is that valid only until the system is restarted? or does it permnaenly alter the mac address
[18:16] <magicianlord> bobstro: it's easier on the internet
[18:16] <mzuverink> join Ubuntu-opes
[18:16] <jpds> magicianlord: Until next reboot.
[18:16] <magicianlord> if people cannot do it, then you are safer
[18:16] <bobstro> dougsko:  i think you basically need to get the phone recognized as a modem.
[18:16] <magicianlord> jpds: thanks
[18:16] <greppy> magicianlord: depends on the hardware.  It is not always possible to change the MAC of a network card.
[18:16] <greppy> magicianlord: why do you want to?
[18:16] <bobstro> magicianlord:  what is easier?
[18:16] <Xase> mzuverink, type '/join #ubuntu-ops' without quotes.
[18:17] <st__> Tekk_, but I would definitely decrypt it temporarily
[18:17] <jpds> magicianlord: They can capture everything regardless of what your MAC address is.
[18:17] <Tekk_> st__: okay, how do I do that?
[18:17] <jpds> magicianlord: If you don't trust them or are just super paranoid, get off their network.
[18:17] <bobstro> magicianlord:  vmware and i assume other virtualization software creates macs for each vm, so there's nothing magical about it.
[18:18] <MM2> I need a plan. I upgraded my server from 8.04 to 10.04 and it won't boot. It hangs during boot to kernel panic, it can't mount filesystem. I have a LVM-system with SATA-drives. How to find out what is wrong and how to fix it?!
[18:18] <NilsH> Hi there, i created a folder with sudo, but i want to be accessible as normal user now, how can i do thath ?
[18:18] <dougsko> bobstro: in windows, its cake, just use the BB Desktop software. in linux, you have to manually set up a ppp dialup connection. its a huge pain to get it right the first time
[18:18] <st__> Tekk_, check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory
[18:18] <magicianlord> jpds: sometimes that is not an option
[18:18] <Tekk_> NilsH: chown [user] [dir] iirc
[18:18] <Tekk_> NilsH: may be the other way around
[18:18] <greppy> NilsH: you wan to use the chown and/or chmod commands.  "man chown" or "man chmod" in a terminal.
[18:19] <bobstro> magicianlord:  this may help - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=316126
[18:19] <magicianlord> gotta go. bbl
[18:19] <magicianlord> thanks homies
[18:19] <turgon> hello! can i get help in midnight commander ?
[18:20] <NilsH> Tekk_ greppy : Thx guys, chown worked fine. Tried chmod before, but i failed to do it with that. Thx alot!
[18:20] <peeps[work]> is there a command line utility to set laptop screen brightness?  the normal keys are not working for some reason.
[18:20] <Eighteens> question: how would i encrypt private messages in ubuntu irc chat, like you can in windows/mirc chat with fish. Is there a fish plugin for ubuntu/irc chat, i googled, but not having much luck
[18:21] <bobstro> Eighteens:  to protect against local sniffing, or do you want end-to-end encryption?
[18:21] <turgon> peeps[work], gnome-power-preferences
[18:21] <greppy> Eighteens: you might want to look for OTR or Off The Record
[18:21] <Eighteens> i guess a better question would be what is the best irc chat client for ubuntu
[18:21] <st__> Eighteens, there's no 'ubuntu irc chat'
[18:21] <turgon> Eighteens, xchat :P
[18:22] <peeps[work]> turgon, i tried using that, but it won't change anyting either
[18:22] <Eighteens> bobstro, just want to keep my private conversations private in chat
[18:22] <Rotham> i use xchat

[18:24] <Dewayne> hello, gave up on gnome-shell. will wait til becomes more stable. Anyone know where I can tweak the Desktop appearance for Ubuntu Netbook Remix on a Desktop?
[18:24] <greppy> Rotham: dia and/or graphviz
[18:24] <peeps[work]> turgon, i know, none of those settings are making any difference.  it's strange, it worked a minute ago.  then I shut down and restarted and my screen is all dim now
[18:24] <Guest16620> I'm trying to create a repo for my DEB files but the server I have is RHEL.  Can anyone point me to a tutorial of how to create a deb repo on an RHEL sever?
[18:24] <peeps[work]> i will try rebooting again i guess
[18:25] <Rotham> thanks

[18:25] <xangua> Guest16620: you can use the launchpad PPA service

[18:26] <Dewayne> Main thing I want to change is Recent Files. It's too long, I only want to set it to 1 line or 1 row of icons.
[18:26] <Guest16620> xangua, I need it to work with debian as well and keep track of download statistics

[18:26] <Dewayne> thanks xangua
[18:26] <turgon> xangua, what is the ppa service used for?
[18:27] <Guest16620> xangua, I already have DEB packages build on the openSuse-build service which I use for my RPMs for other distros as well
[18:27] <xangua> turgon: third partner repositories
[18:27] <Guest16620> turgon, you upload your source to it, and ppa compiles your code and hosts it
[18:27] <IdleOne> !ppa > turgon
[18:27] <jappiecr> ubottu: thnx! How do I add my network connections to the panel? It was there before I configured ltps but now has dissapeard!

[18:29] <floating> Hello. My laptops(sotec) fans(acpi)= are not starting up, and my laptop shuts itself in some 5minutes due to overheating. Im using windows xp, and its speedfan prog cant turn it on. i wonder if I could try force the fans somehow on with linux livecd, if i boot that
[18:29] <jappiecr> glebhan: it says "An instance of nm-applet is already running.
[18:29] <jappiecr> "
[18:30] <mobasher> jappiecr: goto the shell and type ps -ef | grep nm-applet
[18:30] <glebihan> jappiecr: try "killall nm-applet" then "nm-applet"
[18:30] <Richiie> i have a question, does anyone know how to install Dm crypt for ubuntu 10.04 ?
[18:31] <Johanness> jappiecr: add notifacation area's to the panel maybe
[18:31] <floating> is there some basic linux commands to control fans, or some apps included inubuntu livecd , i could try.. to start the fans that are not getting started
[18:31] <glebihan> Johanness: he's just reset his panels, so it should be there
[18:31] <turgon> how can i completely remove a programfrom my pc? In synaptic i can selecte completely remove .. but then when i reinstall it... the config files are still there
[18:31] <Johanness> Oke
[18:32] <suprengr> jappiecr: worth a try... have only used it in 9.04/9.10 - note... not yet tried in 10.04 so backup first... http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-network-manager-applet-missing-from-notification-area-in-ubuntu-10-04.html
[18:32] <greppy> turgon: you need to purge the package.
[18:32] <Richiie> Dm crypt for ubuntu 10.04 any way to get it?
[18:32] <glebihan> turgon: the config files are installed again when you reinstall the program
[18:33] <turgon> greppy, how do i do that?
[18:33] <glebihan> greppy, turgon: complete removal in synaptic is purge
[18:33] <greppy> turgon: dpkg --purge $file is one way, from a terminal
[18:33] <turgon> glebihan, i do that... but my configs are still there?
[18:33]  * greppy is kind of terminal focused.
[18:33] <turgon> greppy, this is the equivalent to the complete removal from synaptic?
[18:33] <greppy> 99% of the *nix boxes I work on I only have a terminal
[18:33] <greppy> turgon: yes
[18:34] <Tm_T> turgon: apt won't touch user settings
[18:34] <glebihan> turgon: they're still there after uninstallation and before reinstallation ?
[18:34] <xangua> turgon: that doesn't delete the configuration files that are on your home
[18:34] <Dewayne> Ubuntu Netbook Remix on a Desktop. How can I tweak the desktop settings... example: 'Recent Files' displays way too many icons. I only want it to display 1 row of icons.
[18:34] <xangua> glebihan: the sam to you
[18:34] <xangua> same*
[18:34] <Scunizi> turgon: configs in your /home directory are not purged.. they must be manually deleted
[18:34] <turgon> xangua, that's the piont... i wana remove the configs in /home
[18:34] <etheretic> What is the best way to analyse dns problems?
[18:34] <Dr_Willis> so.. delete them. :) no need to use apt for that.
[18:34] <xangua> turgon: then search them and delete them
[18:35] <Scunizi> turgon: you can do that with the file manager (nautilus) hit CTRL+H to reveal the hidden files
[18:35] <glebihan> turgon: didn't understang it was configuration in home folder, you'll have to delete those files manually
[18:36] <turgon> Scunizi, lol.. i wont need that.. i'm using mc anyway so i c everything :P
[18:37] <Scunizi> turgon: ah.. good..
[18:37] <st__> how to tell which Xorg driver is used?
[18:37] <turgon> anyone using midnight commander?
[18:38] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  all the time.
[18:38] <sunshinepants> st__: you can do a --reinstall on the xserver-xorg-video-xxxxx which should switch X11 over
[18:38] <sunshinepants> st__: or edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf by hand
[18:38] <st__> no, i need just to know which is current one
[18:38] <turgon> Dr_Willis, gr8... i have a prob with it... it does not always highlight my files :S
[18:39] <Dr_Willis> turgon: ive never had an issue.
[18:39] <powdahound> Running into a strange issue trying to daemonize a python process on ubuntu 10.04 - can anyone take a look? http://gist.github.com/603154
[18:39] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  try it in a different terminal perhaps. xterm, or terminator, or check the TERM variable perhaps.
[18:39] <sunshinepants> st__:  your /var/log/Xorg.0.log has all that
[18:40] <Dr_Willis> grep Module /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[18:40] <Dr_Willis> or grep for 'Driver' perhaps
[18:40] <Richiie> Dmcrypt for Ubuntu 10.04 anyone knows how to install it?
[18:40] <Dr_Willis> !dmcrypt
[18:40] <Richiie> looking for Dmcrypt, dont want to use Truecrypt, can anyone help me?
[18:40] <turgon> Dr_Willis, how to i check them?
[18:41] <Dr_Willis> turgon: echo $TERM
[18:41] <turgon> Dr_Willis, i got "xterm" only
[18:42] <leeb9972> anyone recommend a soft to record desktop? Ive used "record my desktop" and "record it now" but looking for others?

[18:43] <ActionParsnip> !details | markvandenborre
[18:43] <turgon> Dr_Willis, some files are highlighted.. others are not.. The unhighlighted appear with a star in from of them .. the highloghted do not
[18:43] <leeb9972> thanks folks
[18:43] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  so your term varible is set..  try mc in 'xterm' or 'rxvt' or 'terminator' see if the problem affexts them also.
[18:43] <markvandenborre> odd thing is that sound-juicer is the only app that has this problem
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  sounds like its a mc feature if its adding a * in front for some reason.
[18:44] <leshak> how to install python2.4-gtk2?
[18:44] <turgon> i noticed that it added them only in front of old files.. not the recent files i add
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> markvandenborre: could try reinstalling the app, or maybe renaming the config folder for the app then rerunning it to get vanilla settings
[18:45] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  mine just change color from white to yellow. Never seen a *. sounds like some mc setting.
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> !info python2.4
[18:45] <leshak> Please! need from help, how to install python2.4-gtk2 ?
[18:45] <turgon> Dr_Willis, it adds it to old files not the ones i add now...
[18:45] <turgon> Dr_Willis, do u think i should try reinstall?
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> leshak: apt-cache search python | grep gtk2
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> May show it
[18:46] <turgon> Dr_Willis, in xterm.. the problem is still here
[18:46] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  reinstalling is 'windows' thinking.
[18:46] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  sounds like its some mc setting you may have enabled.
[18:46] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  you could reset your mc settings.. i think theres some .mc dir..
[18:46] <turgon> Dr_Willis, yes it is!! i'm sory for that.. only 2 month ubuntu user :P.. So let's say.. is there a way of resetting the settings?
[18:46] <turgon> Dr_Willis, yes /home/.mc
[18:47] <Dr_Willis> so delete the dir and see...
[18:47] <Dr_Willis> you may want to quit mc befor deleting that dir. :)
[18:47] <turgon> Dr_Willis, working on it
[18:47] <mobasher> leshak: there is no package python 2.4 or 2.5 in lucid..u have to download the source and compile
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> leshak: lucid comes with python 2.6.5 so you should be ok
[18:47] <turgon> Dr_Willis, nope.. no change whatsoever!
[18:48] <khider> Hello all, I have two soundcards and am trying to get Alsamixer to select it--but it keeps reverting to the card I do not want it to use. How do I select the one soundcard?
[18:48] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  no idea then.  Perhaps a check of the mc docs/homepage/forum/faq. i select files via 'insert' key and they turn yellow here.
[18:48] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  how are you seecting them?
[18:48] <khider> I type F6, select soundcard, an nvidia one--but it goes to the maudiophile
[18:48] <turgon> Dr_Willis, insert the same way u do it.. they then change color
[18:49] <st__> why ubuntu repo has no virtualbox modules?
[18:49] <Dr_Willis> !virtualbox
[18:50] <Dr_Willis> st__:  what modules are you refering to?
[18:50] <Braber01> hi I've switched form the GUI login to the login SHELL and I need help, I want to be able to use irssi with out having to leave my login shell, however my internet won't work unless i run 'startx' and enter my login password in a prompt any ideas on what could help me?
[18:50] <ActionParsnip> st__: you need to install dkms and they will be made
[18:50] <jappiecr> restarting to see if all this worked:-)
[18:50] <st__> linux guest modules
[18:50] <mobasher> st__: check in synaptic it should be there
[18:50] <kerim> hi i have 3g modem.I wonder where is conf of 3g modem and its scripts
[18:50] <khider> So I have two soundcards, when I type 'alsamixer' and f6 I can select one or the other, but it always defaults to the one I do not want it to use
[18:50] <zamba> how do i get rid of the stupid question for unlocking keyring at bootup?
[18:50] <Dr_Willis> Braber01:  you mean you are using 'wireless' internet?
[18:50] <khider> The result is no sound
[18:50] <mobasher> st__: i installed them last night check in synaptic
[18:50] <turgon> Dr_Willis, do you know where can i check my settings?
[18:50] <Dr_Willis> zamba:  set the keyring password to be empty.
[18:50] <Braber01> Dr_)Willis: yes  I am using wireless
[18:50] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  mc settings are in the .mc dir/file and check the mc menus/config feature
[18:51] <domedagen> Anyone in here wants a trail key for the native Linux game Heroes of Newerth?
[18:51] <Dr_Willis> Braber01:  you need to set wireless up some how to work at boot without network manager it seems.
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> Braber01: you can use /etc/network/interfaces to define the networking. Network manager seems to need an x server to operate wheras that file doesn't it is also DE independant :)
[18:51] <trism> Braber01: if you configured your network with network manager, you need to make sure to check the box to make it available to all users, or it won't let you connect until you log into your desktop
[18:51] <Dewayne> Can anyone help me customize Ubuntu Netbook Remix on a Desktop... example: 'Recent Files' displays way too many icons. I only want it to display 1 row of icons.
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> st__: oh you mean guest additions?
[18:51] <st__> ActionParsnip, yes
[18:51] <Dewayne> parley
[18:52] <Dr_Willis> zamba:  theres a 'passwords and encryptionkeys' tool, you use right click on the 'login' entry and change password. set it to be blank. it will ask to 'use unsafe storage' and after that it wont ask again
[18:52] <benhem> hey (again) -- went and got a belkin wireless usb adapter, got it set up per these instructions ( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=863591&highlight=belkin+n+wireless+adaptor )  -- now it lists the available networks correctly but tries to join forever
[18:52] <Braber01> trism: thank you I'm off to copy your text and e-mail it to my self
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> st__: you install them from within the vbox. There's a menu item at the top when you have the vbox system running
[18:52] <turgon> Dr_Willis, wait... does mc consider files on mounted drives differently then those on any place else than /media?
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> st__: it will download an iso from the vbox servers. You can then manually mount it and run the install script in the guest OS
[18:53] <st__> ActionParsnip, you don;t install them, you compile them so you need kernel headers and compiler and developer crap, why there are not precompiled ones in repository?
[18:53] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  theres settings mc uses to display different files differently i imagine - could be doing somthing to show permissions/ownership. ive never seen it flag a * at the front of a file and ive been using mc for years. S :)
[18:54] <ActionParsnip> st__: the guest additions are binarys afaik, the additions iso installs them for you to get sound / lan etc
[18:54] <turgon> Dr_Willis, ok.. how can i change permissions from mc?
[18:54] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  via its menus.
[18:54] <NigeyUK> hi
[18:54] <ActionParsnip> st__: i'd ask in #vbox
[18:54] <Braber01> does any body find it odd I'm on a !ubuntu channel on a !windows machine?
[18:54] <Dr_Willis> it has pulldown menus. :)
[18:54] <Dr_Willis> Braber01:  not really.
[18:54] <turgon> Dr_Willis, euh.. which one ? :S
[18:54] <NigeyUK> so am i, but it's not odd :)
[18:55] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  no idea.. explore the menus
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> st__: I've never had to compile anything for vbox using any of the guest OSes I've used
[18:55] <Daniel> how can i make a hello world in c++ and compile it?
[18:55] <Braber01> okay. just wondering it doesn't feel right using MS windows any more
[18:55] <turgon> Dr_Willis, is chmod the command to change them?
[18:55] <glebihan> Daniel: see ##linux-coders
[18:55] <Braber01> !chmod
[18:55] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  chmod changes the 'modes' on files.. chown changes the ownership.
[18:55] <Dr_Willis> !mode | turgon
[18:55] <magicialord> Braber01: yes
[18:55] <Dr_Willis> oops wrong factoid
[18:55] <Dr_Willis> !permissions
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> Daniel: install build-essential and you will have a development suite. You can then compile in command line your code
[18:55] <benhem> Daniel: or #c++
[18:56] <trism> Daniel: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/C++_Programming/Examples/Hello_world
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> Daniel: you can use any text editor to write code
[18:56] <khider> How do I select a soundcard in alsamixer?
[18:56] <Daniel> OK, Thanks!
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> Daniel: or you can use an IDE to give a gui development tool
[18:56] <arnotixe_> alsamixer -c <number>
[18:56] <Braber01> well I have a lot of studieing to do tonight about the factoids
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> !ide | daniel
[18:56] <magicialord> khider: F6
[18:57] <ActionParsnip> Braber01: if you websearch for: ubottu factoids ,you will see a searchable page with all of her replys
[18:57] <jappiecr> Back to the network manager: 1st, thanks for helping me getting the network connection icon back to the panel! But there is something weird..
[18:58] <Pici> !brain | Braber01
[18:58] <khider> arnotixe_, magicialord , nope--does not work. It has to select harder
[18:58] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  its a mc option you enabled...  'File Highlight' has 2 check boxs
[18:58] <turgon> Dr_Willis, yes.. it's in layout.. booth are checked..
[18:58] <Braber01> ActionParsnip: Thanks I think I can rember do to that when I get home right now I'm just waiting for my soon to be gf to ride the bus home
[18:58] <st__> how to change screen resolution via terminal?
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> Pici: that works too ;)
[18:58] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  thats why its showing the * then...
[18:58] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  executables = *
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> st__: look into xrandr
[18:58] <gabrielcz> Hi all...
[18:59] <turgon> Dr_Willis, ? i but.. OWWWW.. so an mp3 file is considered as executable?
[18:59] <ActionParsnip> st__: there is an xorg.conf for virtualbox to get 124x768
[18:59] <arnotixe_> khider, harder?
[18:59] <glebihan> jappiecr: and what is weird ??
[18:59] <Braber01> I have my shell set to always show me either the @ for links the / for dirs and the * for exes
[18:59] <ActionParsnip> turgon: if its on an ntfs partition then yes
[18:59] <enzotib> st__, xrandr
[18:59] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  if the exeutable bit is set.. it dosent matter what the file is.. its 'executable'
[18:59] <osmosis> how can i figure out what package a file came from?
[19:00] <khider> arnotixe_, It is not selecting the correct card
[19:00] <st__> ehm xrandr what? it looks as the mess
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> osmosis: dpkg -S file
[19:00] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  and when mounting ntfs/vfat often EVERYTHING is set 'executable'
[19:00] <troy-> 3
[19:00] <khider> arnotixe_, When I double check, I see the wrong card selected, EACH TIME
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> st__: run: man xrandr ,you will see
[19:00] <turgon> ActionParsnip, dammm windows... yes it's ntfs... cuz i was the patition that was made when i got the laptop
[19:00] <gabrielcz> question about IPTABLES: /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT <---With this line, I ALLOW all the connections to tcp 80..  right? but, I want to open more ports on same line...  perhaps from 80 to 90 ...   How can I do that on SAME line?  any clue??
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> turgon: yep, that's why.
[19:00] <turgon> Dr_Willis, igth so can i change the bits?
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> Ntfs sucks
[19:00] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  for ntfs/vfat theres work arounds.. but its not worth the hassle i imagine.
[19:01] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  its all about the mount options used when mounting them.
[19:01] <khider> Do I have to reboot after the card is slected?
[19:01] <ActionParsnip> Dr_Willis: puzzle over eh ;)
[19:01] <turgon> Aciid, haha :D windows sucks :D ... open source isnt that strong compatibility and program wise.. but the community is awsome!!!!
[19:01] <meco> How can I find the location of a folder?
[19:01] <Dr_Willis> ActionParsnip:   I figured it was mc doing what it was supposed to do. :)
[19:01] <ActionParsnip> khider: reboots are for windows and kernel upgrades only :)
[19:01] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  tell it to not flag the files like that.. no more issue. ;)
[19:02] <khider> ActionParsnip, Experience proved otherwise
[19:02] <turgon> ActionParsnip,  puzzle??
[19:02] <glebihan> meco: what do you mean exactly ? you know its name but not where it is ?
[19:02] <Dr_Willis> bed time for me now.. bye all
[19:02] <turgon> Dr_Willis, haha... ok listen i did an automount in...dam forgot the name of file :P
[19:02] <ActionParsnip> turgon: the why is my mp3 executable puzzle
[19:02] <meco> glebihan: correct
[19:02] <arnotixe_> khider, ok what's the difference between "alsamixer -c 0" and "alsamixer -c 1" ?
[19:02] <glebihan> meco: use the find command
[19:02] <meco> ok
[19:02] <khider> I had the soundcard working after several reboots, but now lost it again
[19:03] <Braber01> um I was reading a book on all distros of linux and I can never rember the syntax for redirection to STDERR it's 1&2> right?
[19:03] <turgon> ActionParsnip, oki :P... so how can i change this?
[19:03] <glebihan> meco: find / -type d -name dirname 2>/dev/null
[19:03] <ActionParsnip> turgon: you can't really. Its ntfs being rubbish
[19:03] <st__> turgon, noexec
[19:03] <Braber01> I know another way to do it is >& but that's if your using tcsh and i'm not.
[19:03] <turgon> ActionParsnip, can't fstab do it?
[19:04] <turgon> st__, in fstab rigth?
[19:04] <st__> turgon, yes
[19:04] <VCoolio> Braber01: >/dev/null 2>&1
[19:04] <ActionParsnip> turgon: st__ seems to know a thing or 3 here :)
[19:04] <turgon> ActionParsnip, indeed :D ... give me 2 sec st__ working on it not
[19:04] <turgon> now*
[19:04] <khider> How do I SAVE the soundcard settings I want?
[19:05] <meco> glebihan: How long does it take?
[19:05] <Braber01> VCoolio wouldn't that put my text in /dev/null? I just want to redirect to stderr not to dump it into stderr.
[19:05] <Braber01> */dev/null
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> khider: could add it in a script to run at logon
[19:05] <turgon> st__, the default setting consider exec?
[19:05] <glebihan> meco: can be quite long, needs to scan all your filesystem, you can get it to do it faster if you have some idea of where the fodler is located
[19:05] <VCoolio> Braber01: sorry, thought you meant to dump all output to void
[19:06] <st__> yes I believe
[19:06] <meco> glebihan:: Well, it's a program
[19:06] <glebihan> meco: if you know it's in /home, replace / by /home in the command
[19:06] <Braber01> VCoolio it's okay we all make mistakes
[19:06] <arnotixe_> khider, oops. PCI soundcard? does it show in "lspci"?  (or if usb soundcard, in "lsusb")?
[19:06] <khider> arnotixe_, how do I get it to save?
[19:07] <meco> glebihan: It's a program I'm running, so maybe it's an easier way to find its location?
[19:07] <turgon> st__, ok.. done the change... i will reboot and try... brb :D
[19:07] <glebihan> meco: you search in /usr rather than /
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> meco: ps _ef | grep name ,may help
[19:07] <llutz> Braber01: foo >&2
[19:07] <khider> arnotixe_, It shows in Alsamixer and lspci--it is just not selecting it for some reason
[19:07] <Braber01> llutz: thanks
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> meco: the process name should show the path as well as the name
[19:08] <farhad2010> [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[19:08] <farhad2010> [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[19:08] <ActionParsnip> khider: if you never want to use the other sound device then why not just remove it physically
[19:08] <FloodBot2> farhad2010: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:08] <khider> ActionParsnip, I need one for recording, the other for playback
[19:08] <meco> fredensborg@beboer-pc:~$ ps _ef | grep ophcrack
[19:08] <meco> ERROR: Garbage option.
[19:09] <glebihan> meco: there's also the "whereis" command that can be useful
[19:09] <glebihan> meco: ps -ef, not ps _ef
[19:09] <meco> That just gave me the name of the file without path
[19:10] <glebihan> meco: try "whereis ophcrack"
[19:10] <farhad2010> kk
[19:10] <ActionParsnip> Meco: its a minus, not an underscore
[19:10] <dagny_taggart> meco: ps aux | grep ophcrack
[19:10] <ActionParsnip> meco: ps -ef | grep cra
[19:11] <meco> I found it using the whereis command, but I found it in two locations...
[19:11]  * ActionParsnip uses the linux standard ps options ;)
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> meco: try: which ophcrack
[19:12] <farhad2010> kick me please
[19:12] <glebihan> meco: well if there are only, you should be able to check which one is the right one
[19:12] <farhad2010> kick me please
[19:13] <turgon_> st__, man it didnt work out
[19:13] <khider> how do i select a soundcard?
[19:13] <turgon_> st__, this is my fstab line:  /dev/sda3 /media/Data auto noexec 0 0
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> farhad2010: type: /exit and I will kick you
[19:13] <farhad2010> heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> turgon_: you want a comma between auto and noexec
[19:13] <farhad2010> ActioParsnip:You r so funny
[19:13] <benhem> #ubuntu has /n
[19:14] <magicialord> khider: F6
[19:14] <benhem> 1330 people
[19:14] <llutz> turgon_: you don't want a comma there
[19:14] <benhem> and NONE of them want to help with my wifi?
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> farhad2010: do you have an ubuntu support question?
[19:14] <st__> auto is fs type, noexec is an option
[19:14] <benhem> it is stastically unlikely!
[19:14] <turgon_> llutz, so what do i need? :S
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> benhem: I haven't seen your question, can you repost
[19:14] <turgon_> benhem, what;s ur prob? :D i might help :P
[19:14] <benhem> :D
[19:14] <llutz> turgon_: i havent read your story, what would you do, what filesystem is sda3?
[19:15] <benhem> my wifi card crapped out; i got a usb wifi widget
[19:15] <khider> magical, does not work
[19:15] <benhem> installed drivers for it via a magic tool that grabs windows .inf files
[19:15] <khider> magicialord, does not work
[19:15] <benhem> it's recognized and searches for networks and finds them, but it tries to join forever and eventually times out
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> benhem: is there no native driver?
[19:15] <turgon_> llutz, sda3 is ntfs.. i want to make it noexec so that files are not considered as executable
[19:15] <benhem> ActionParsnip: it seems not, not from the manufacturer anyway
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> benhem: manufacturers rarely make chips
[19:16] <benhem> ActionParsnip, I have lshw/iwconfig/ifconfig output if that helps
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> benhem: if you run: sudo lshw -C network ,you will see the chip
[19:16] <benhem> right
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> benhem: websearch for the product line to find guides
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> benhem: what is the product line of the wireless device?
[19:16] <llutz> turgon try "fmask=0111"
[19:17] <benhem> http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=509530
[19:17] <etheretic> Is there a way to find out whether recurrent dns problems are local or external?
[19:17] <benhem> ActionParsnip: that's the device
[19:17] <turgon_> benhem, sometimes.. below the laptop u can see the 'name' of the driver of ur wifi
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> benhem: belkin don't make chips so showing its a belkin is moot
[19:17] <benhem> oh
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> benhem: what's the chip it uses
[19:17] <turgon_> llutz, where do i put it in the line?
[19:18] <benhem> ActionParsnip: I'll try to find out.   turgon_ : it's a usb widget, not an installed card
[19:18] <TechKat> so, i've got this problem. upgraded to 10.04.1 via apt a while ago, went to use piklab today and it kinda explodes with a complaint about drkonqi not being found any time you try to read or write to the pic
[19:18] <turgon_> benhem, ow ok
[19:18] <llutz> turgon_: like: /dev/sda3       /media/Data  ntfs    rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,allow_other,umask=0000,fmask=0111 0 0
[19:18] <TechKat> i've tried reinstalling pretty much everything google informs me may be related
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> benhem: belkin buy atheros and broadcom chips and put them in their adapters, you need to know the chip. What's printed on the pretty shell doesn't change what's on the inside
[19:18] <khider> ActionParsnip, How do I get the computer to select the soundcard I want at boot?
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> benhem: its the same to linux, it doesn't matter in any way how it connects, the kernel handles all that
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> khider: I'm no use in sound issues dude. Never had an issue in my life
[19:20] <turgon_> llutz, i'll try it.. then reboot
[19:20] <llutz> turgon_: why?
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> benhem: so if you run: sudo lshw -C network ,what is the product line of the wifi??
[19:20] <turgon_> llutz, the partition is already mounted
[19:20] <benhem> oh, it's there?
[19:20] <coz_> khider,  I would ask this in both #pulseaudio and #alsa channels
[19:20] <llutz> turgon_: sudo umount /media/data && sudo mount /media/Data       after fstab-changes
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> benhem: yes, it will always identify, doesn't mean it works. What does it say?
[19:21] <turgon_> llutz, oww :P lovely :P ok.. let me check it .. 2 sce
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> benhem: I thought you said you'd ran lshw?
[19:21] <benhem>        configuration: broadcast=yes driver=ndiswrapper+net8192su driverversion=1.55+Belkin International, Inc., link=no multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11g
[19:21] <benhem> description: "wireless interface"
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> benhem: no, the product line only
[19:21] <benhem> checking full lshw
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> benhem: so you didn't even read it?
[19:22] <benhem> I read the lshw, but I don't see the information you're asking for
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> benhem: find the wireless device and read the product line...
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> My guess is a realtek
[19:23] <turgon_> llutz, no chang!
[19:23] <coz_> benhem,   or do lshw  ...select all of it and paste it on pastebin.com
[19:23] <benhem> looking for text like "product," "broadcom," "atheros," "realtek" -- nothing
[19:23] <turgon_> llutz, i wrote this: /dev/sda3 /media/Data ntfs rw,fmask=011,noexec 0 0
[19:23] <khider> coz_, nobody is on that channel
[19:23] <coz_> khider,  on either one?
[19:23] <coz_> khider,  you may have to pose the question and stick around for someone to answer
[19:24] <ActionParsnip> benhem: use http://pastie.org and upload the file so we can study iit please
[19:24] <JackStoner> turgon_: dont you need to use ntfs-3g?
[19:24] <turgon_> JackStoner, what is that?
[19:24] <JackStoner> in your fstab line....
[19:24] <llutz> turgon try "fmask=0111"
[19:24] <benhem> ActionParsnip: http://paste2.org/p/1009656
[19:24] <JackStoner> you used ntfs
[19:24] <khider> coz_, for how mand days?
[19:24] <coz_> khider,  well how many days have you waited so far? :)
[19:25] <benhem> ActionParsnip: that's the output from: sudo lshw -C network
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> benhem: ok then run: lsusb ,you will see an 8 character hex id. You can search that for guides
[19:26] <khider> coz_, 2
[19:26] <coz_> khider,  I am not up on all troubleshooting for sound issues... you can open a terminal    type    alsamixer  and see if anything is muted but other than that , I would wait around in those other 2 channels I mentioned unless someone comes in here with better info
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> benhem: you may also want to disable the bad wifi device so it doesn't complicate stuff
[19:26] <benhem> it is beyond disabled already -- doesn't show up in scans, drivers disappeared
[19:26] <jappiecr> I a, running edubuntu 10.04 with ltps server setup and 2 nics.   eth0= for Internet and eth1 = for TC network (with ip range: 10.0.30.) . In my "Network Connections" it now shows the following wired connections: Ethernet automatic, ifupdown (eth1), ifupdown (eth0) and  Auto eth0 ....kind of weird right?
[19:26] <benhem> ActionParsnip: 050d:845a
[19:26] <TechKat> anyone with any suggestions?
[19:27] <turgon_> llutz, no change
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> benhem: ok, websearch for: ubuntu 050d:845a
[19:27] <turgon_> JackStoner, i replaced it with auto
[19:27] <Eighteens> question: i'm trying to enable a component called 'universe', so i type enable universe, then it tells me to "sudo apt-get install udo", but then it tells me "Couldn't find package udo"
[19:27] <JackStoner> turgon_: how does it look like?
[19:27] <turgon_> JackStoner, /dev/sda3 /media/Data auto rw,suid,noexec,auto,nouser,async,"fmask=0111" 0 0
[19:27] <benhem> ActionParsnip: this might be it http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9759001#post9759001
[19:27] <JackStoner> does it mount??
[19:27] <turgon_> JackStoner, yep
[19:27] <coz_> TechKat,  mm  not sure about that one... are all dependencies installed?
[19:27] <turgon_> JackStoner, i just mounted it then unomounted it
[19:28] <llutz> turgon_: last idea:          umask=0000,fmask=0111    without quotes!
[19:28] <JackStoner> turgon_: does it auto mount?
[19:28] <TechKat> coz_ it worked perfectly before the upgrade
[19:28] <coz_> TechKat,  did you open this via  terminal and see what erroros are listed?
[19:28] <benhem> ActionParsnip: thanks, I'll try those instructions.  hope it doesn't matter than I'm on 32 bit
[19:28] <TechKat> coz_ i've reinstalled it, all the dependencies are installed supposedly
[19:28] <TechKat> coz_ yes
[19:28] <turgon_> JackStoner, yes
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> Eighteens: sounds like you want to add the universe repo.add it in system -> software sources
[19:28] <JackStoner> nice
[19:28] <coz_> TechKat,  then I have no clue...but apparenlty some of the dependencies cannot be found
[19:29] <ActionParsnip> benhem: 32bit makes life marginally easier
[19:29] <coz_> TechKat,   sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to see if anything new is around
[19:29] <g_> hi, i have apache running, and want 2 virtual hosts, i want one for  a specific folder, and the rest to be a catchall. for the catchall  i have <virtualhost *:80>, and for the other one i have a  nameserver. the problem i have is localhost is unreliably pointing  to the right / wrong directory. what can i do abotu this?
[19:29] <TechKat> did
[19:29] <turgon_> llutz, arghh :P
[19:29] <Eighteens> is that because i am using it from live cd?
[19:29] <turgon_> llutz, nothing :(
[19:30] <turgon_> llutz,  DAMMM MAN I LOVE U :P
[19:31] <turgon_> llutz,  i forgot the 1 in the end :P... can U please tell me that do they mean?
[19:31] <JackStoner> !fstab
[19:31] <JackStoner> !fstab | turgon_
[19:31] <llutz> turgon_: man fstab     tells you
[19:31] <turgon_> JackStoner, no no i mean the umask and fmask..
[19:31] <llutz> turgon_: http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/filesystems/ntfs.txt
[19:32] <turgon_> llutz, i know abwt fstab.. i made it auto on my own :P but i did not know about umask and fmask :P
[19:32] <osmosis> any ways to recover a file that triggers CRC HD errors?
[19:32] <turgon_> llutz,  checking it now
[19:32] <llutz> turgon_: lines 127ff (umask, dmask, fmask)
[19:32] <turgon_> llutz,  yup
[19:33] <magicialord> why is hte system remounted read only upon shutdown?
[19:33] <magicialord> what is the purpose of this malarki
[19:33] <sedy> hi, does anybody knows why I cannot enable screen saver in kde? I apply settings but it does not save.
[19:34] <turgon_> llutz,  umask and fmask affect permission.. not exectuable bits... no?
[19:34] <llutz> turgon_: executable bit is part of the permissions (r,w,x)
[19:34] <JackStoner> sedy: have u tried to test one and see if it works?
[19:34] <mrsolo>  hmm /boot disappears when i upgrade from 2.6.15-51 to 2.6.24.-24  what could be the issue?
[19:34] <aeon-ltd> magicialord: maybe to prevent data to be written corruptly upon shutdown?
[19:34] <magicialord> sedy: are you using maverisk?
[19:34] <turgon_> llutz, ow.. x is for this? :P lol. i though it was for directory !
[19:34] <mrsolo> i tried force mount /boot but system says device is busy
[19:35] <magicialord> aeon-ltd: wut
[19:35] <Dittersdorf> Hi all. While using firestarter I noticed an open port. How do I know what program / software is using it?
[19:35] <llutz> turgon_: x = executable on files, accessible on directories
[19:35] <helper> how i can do like anything user enter inside field append @example.com  => i know this don't work but i try it $account = trim($_POST['email']@example.com);
[19:35] <sedy> JackStoner, yes i apply the settings but when i open the setting dialog again it is reset.
[19:35] <sedy> magicialord, no i'm not.
[19:36] <Dandan> Hi
[19:36] <mrsolo> hmm nm looks like everything is hidden now hmm
[19:36] <Daniel> I made my Hello World. But now, how can i make to execute this without typing the command in Terminal?
[19:37] <Dittersdorf> Hi all. While using firestarter I noticed an open port. How do I know what program / software is using it?
[19:37] <paradigm_> XUbuntu 10.4 installed on computer, having issues with hard drive.  I have booted to the Live CD and run fsck.ext3 -pfc but it has been running for over a day now
[19:37] <turgon_> llutz, igth! so umask=0000 gives rwx to everything... and fmask is for files.. but why =0111 not other values?
[19:37] <Dandan> I'm trying to use wireshark in monitor mode right, and it automatically goes back to managed, what can i do to stop this?
[19:37] <paradigm_> with tons of errors... is there any end for this in site or should i have chosen some different options?
[19:37] <JackStoner> sedy: when u select the screensaver can u click test to see if it works
[19:37] <llutz> turgon_: fmask=0111 unsets "executable" on files for owner,group,others
[19:38] <sedy> JackStoner, yes it works. i've also added widgets.
[19:38] <llutz> turgon_: so files remain 666 (rw-rw-rw)
[19:38] <llutz> turgon_: so files remain 666 (rw-rw-rw-)
[19:39] <llutz> turgon_: with only  "umask=0000" files would be 777 (rwxrwxrwx) like dirs
[19:39] <turgon_> llutz, this ( owner group and others ) was not mentioned on the page.. I checked man mount.... it did not specify this.. so how can i check it?
[19:39] <Dandan>  I'm trying to use wireshark in monitor mode right, and it automatically goes back to managed, what can i do to stop this? someone told me to disable the network manager but it will cut my wireless internet so how ?
[19:39] <turgon_> llutz,  y 666 and 777 not 888 and 999? :S
[19:39] <Daniel> helloooo?
[19:40] <llutz> turgon_: x=1, w=2, r=4 so rwx=777
[19:40] <TechKat> coz_ huzzah new error "/usr/bin/iceauth:  creating new authority file /home/kitten/.ICEauthority
[19:40] <TechKat> Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed" in addition to the "drkonqi" error
[19:40] <turgon_> llutz,  ahhhhhh :d nice! is there a tutorial on this? thus i wont bother u anymore :P
[19:41] <Phylock> is there a reason why i randomly end op in #ubuntu-unregged insted of #ubuntu when i join on connect??
[19:41] <llutz> turgon_: "man chmod" has some basics about that
[19:41] <turgon_> llutz, ok
[19:41] <Daniel> Can someone answer me?
[19:41] <llutz> rwx=7*
[19:42] <guigouz> hello. i need to run a command automatically after the login prompt, but also after metacity has been loaded (otherwise it messes with my fullscreen display), using gnome-session won't help. any ideas ?
[19:43] <paradigm_> i just got a message on the live CD that the hard drive is failing.  is there anything that can be done with fsck to correct this?  Is fsck going to work to fix this or am I wasting timme?
[19:44] <benhem> W00T.
[19:45] <turgon_> llutz, what does "others users in the file's group" mean?
[19:45] <guigouz> turgon_: users that are not the owner or into the file's group
[19:46] <turgon_> guigouz, ok
[19:46] <rusivi> Was doing a little dusting on bug 24874 and while I am not a Perl guru, it would be nice to keep the way things are but with the option to alias hostname to something <IP_ADDRESS>
[19:47] <llutz> turgon_: maybe this helps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions
[19:47] <turgon_> llutz, rwx=7... but x = 1.. so when u say fmask=0111 u are still making it executable. no?
[19:47] <llutz> turgon_: you mix permissions and a mask. the mask unsets the bits
[19:48] <llutz> turgon_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umask
[19:49] <llutz> turgon_: principle is the same for umask/dmask/fmask
[19:49] <turgon_> llutz, alrigth.. reading all of them.. thx..
[19:49] <Ryan_Lane> What's the proper way to have a package modify iptables rules on install/remove?
[19:49] <Ryan_Lane> when making a package, that is
[19:50] <jimjimovich> what is the best way to restrict use of an application to a group of users (and assuming my users are smart and know how to Alt+F2)
[19:50] <Dandan> I'm trying to use wireshark in monitor mode right, and it automatically goes back to managed, what can i do to stop this? someone told me to disable the network manager but it will cut my wireless internet so how ?
[19:50] <erUSUL> jimjimovich: set executing bit only to the group they belong to
[19:51] <jimjimovich> erUSUL: will this get reset when apt updates that application?
[19:51] <erUSUL> jimjimovich: probably; but i dunno for sure
[19:52] <paradigm_> i just got a message on the live CD that the hard drive is failing.  is there anything that can be done with fsck to correct this?  Is fsck going to work to fix this or am I wasting time?  fsck has been running for 1.5 days w/ tons of ata3 errors dumped to consle
[19:52] <Ryan_Lane> ignore me. I can add the rules when the service starts
[19:52] <tsudot> Hey i have a question, what is the deciding factor that mprotect() uses to find out that the memory address it is setting a protection value is in its own address space?
[19:53] <erUSUL> tsudot: ##c ?

[19:59] <antIP> Hi all, any suggestions for a very secure PDF reader/viewer? One that doesn't run scripts or connect to the Internet. That sort of thing.
[19:59] <_N3o_> antIP, xpdf
[19:59] <turgon_> llutz, can i change execution bits recursivly? i tried this: chmod 777 ./* it only did it for files in the folder.. noe the ones in subdirs
[20:00] <antIP> _N3o_ Thanks.
[20:00] <_N3o_> antIP, sudo apt-get install xpdf
[20:00] <deeperror> I've got ubuntu installed and configured.   I'd now like to take this installation and roll it into either a livecd, bootable cd, or a pxe image.  Any links or howto's?
[20:00] <jrib> turgon_: you would never want to do that
[20:00] <dwxreaper> is it me or is ubuntuforms and only repo search always down?
[20:00] <antIP> _N3o_ Haha, just did it.
[20:00] <turgon_> jrib, y? what if i know what's in the folder?
[20:01] <jrib> turgon_: based on what you tried.  Why exactly do you want to do this?
[20:02] <turgon_> jrib, i have a folder containing configuration for mc, mocp etc... each one contains an executable file... in the main folder is a file called 'script' that calls the files in the subdirectories... they are not executable yet.. and i dont wana do it manually!
[20:02] <llutz> turgon_: man chmod (-R)
[20:02] <jrib> turgon_: 777 is not the proper way to do that
[20:03] <JackStoner> chmod -R 700 /path/to/folder
[20:04] <diogo_79> hi
[20:04] <jrib> turgon_: if you still aren't sure what you need to do, give more details (use a pastebin if you need to)
[20:04] <diogo_79> it is possible from ubuntu mskr sn udb boot disk to install windows xp??
[20:04]  * JackStoner sleeping
[20:04] <turgon_> jrib, chmod -r 777 ./ does not work
[20:04] <turgon_> llutz,  thx again :)
[20:05] <jrib> turgon_: I just said you didn't want to do that...
[20:05] <diogo_79> it is possible from ubuntu make an usb boot disk to install a windows xp?
[20:05] <turgon_> jrib, fine :D what to do then? :)
[20:05] <jrib> turgon_: start by undoing what you did
[20:05] <turgon_> jrib done
[20:05] <diemos> So, i've setup ubuntu server 10.4, it's running its own DHCP+Bind9 server (as well as SSH for remote access), it has multiple interfaces however they don't have access to anything outside the network. Also, eth0 keeps reassigning its static given IP address to a DHCP leased IP address :(
[20:05] <jrib> turgon_: if you still aren't sure what you need to do, give more details (use a pastebin if you need to)
[20:06] <turgon_> jrib... wow!... this is messy... the subdirs are unaccessible :P so i reackon i have to use smthing else :P
[20:07] <turgon_> jrib thx :)

[20:08] <jrib> turgon_: that's not a valid command
[20:08] <jrib> turgon_: ok
[20:08] <turgon_> jrib though it worked :S
[20:08] <jrib> turgon_: oh wait it is valid.  Okay makes sense
[20:08] <llutz> jrib: its valid (unsets r)
[20:08] <doxdrum> Hi there! Is there any way of reducing the size of the windows borders?
[20:08] <turgon_> jrib, owww wait.... it made the files wx... how can i make them rwx ?
[20:08] <madjoe> is a Renaissance project a for of entire Open Office, or is it just something that could be applied to OO to improve it's GUI and usability?
[20:08] <jrib> !permissions > turgon_
[20:09] <llutz> turgon_: chmod +r
[20:09] <SkinWall> can someone tell me how to use "find" to find multiple files and move them all to a different directory in one go?
[20:09] <kiss1> guys do u kw how to run Cairo dock on fluxbox . coz its not in my menu :(
[20:09] <jrib> SkinWall: -exec
[20:09] <diemos> is there a way to stop DHCP from running on the host machine?
[20:09] <turgon_> llutz, wait... if i want it recursive it has to be chome -R or chmod -r ?
[20:09] <kiss1> guys do u kw how to run Cairo dock on fluxbox . coz its not in my menu :(
[20:09] <jrib> turgon_: -R is recursive.  You're going to break things...
[20:10] <kiss1> is anyone here can help me ?
[20:10] <turgon_> llutz, sry man... i did nt read all of it :$
[20:10] <llutz> turgon_: i suggest you spend some time for reading before messing all up :)
[20:10] <SkinWall> i tried "find . -name "*.jpg" -o -name "*.c" -exec mv '{}' /home/rage/ \; "
[20:10] <turgon_> llutz,  indeed :D
[20:10] <SkinWall> but that didn't work
[20:10] <SkinWall> :(
[20:10] <jrib> SkinWall: "didn't work" is vague
[20:11] <coolsan> kiss1: i installed cairo not in fluxbox
[20:12] <SkinWall> well it gives me random messages. sometimes it tells me "binary operator -o used without anything preceding. and sometimes, it only moves the last find.
[20:12] <kiss1> coolsan .. yea I used cairo when I ws usig gnome
[20:12] <kiss1> but now its not in the menu when I moved to fluxbox
[20:12] <MM2> I need a plan. I upgraded my server from 8.04 to 10.04 and it won't boot. It hangs during boot to kernel panic, it can't mount filesystem. I have a LVM-system with SATA-drives. How to find out what is wrong and how to fix it?!
[20:12] <jrib> !who | SkinWall
[20:12] <coolsan> kiss1: now what
[20:13] <kiss1> coolscan : I dont kw .. thats why I came here
[20:13] <SkinWall> oh crap
[20:13] <Alexia_Death> MM2: Boot from some other media and see whats going on.
[20:13] <TechKat> ok i think i have this mostly figured out
[20:13] <kiss1> maby a terminal command to run cairo ?
[20:13] <turgon_> llutz, jrib worked like a charme... Next time i will have to read carefully. Thank you guys :)
[20:13] <Pici> SkinWall: You may need to surround -name "*.jpg" with parens and you may need to ecape the parens.
[20:13] <coolsan> kiss1: ok i will try wait
[20:13] <TechKat> what would cause the parallel port to not be claimed?
[20:13] <sam555> hello all!
[20:13] <madjoe> how can I make my Open Office look a litle bit prettier? is there something like theme extensions to apply on my OO?
[20:14] <MM2> Alexia_Death, I did and it boots from live cd. But how to fix things? What if wrong?
[20:14] <coolsan> kiss1: it may be apt-get install cairo-dock
[20:14] <Alexia_Death> MM2: can you access your drives?
[20:14] <SkinWall> !Pici hokay, I'll try that out
[20:14] <SkinWall> urgh. that didn't work.
[20:14] <kiss1> dude I hage ot insatlled
[20:14] <Dandan> erUSUL: ok I done what the link you gave me said, now the new interface i created mon0 it supposed to be apearing as an interface in wireshark?
[20:15] <erUSUL> Dandan: it should yes; never tried myself though.
[20:15] <Kyle__> Question about kernel-ppa kernels... can you use a maverick kernel on lucid?
[20:16] <jrib> SkinWall: you're still being vague.  What exactly didn't work?
[20:16] <MM2> Alexia_Death, yes, with live CD
[20:16] <Dandan> hmm because its not appearing i wonder if i did it wrong i copied the examples and pasted them in a console, then i go iwconfig and the mon0 does appear to be in monitor mode but it does not appear as an interface in wireshark
[20:17] <coolsan> my wabcam is not workin in gnme
[20:17] <sam555> how does one use a printer with ubuntu 9.04 that is only for windows machines?
[20:17] <Alexia_Death> MM2: Trying to accessMM2: And not at boot? AFAIK, to boot from raids and such some stuff needs to be in intitrd.  upgrade does not remove your old kernel I think. First thingyou cand do is try to boot that.
[20:17] <NeverGone> Hello, i have a external usb keyboard with trackpoint/touchpad, i would change trackpoint speed
[20:17] <NeverGone> something idea?
[20:18] <MM2> Alexia_Death: I tried booting old kernel, same kernel panic
[20:18] <Alexia_Death> MM2: What exactly does the panic say?
[20:18] <coolsan> my wabcam is not workin in gnme :-(
[20:18] <Alexia_Death> If old kernel has the same problem, its probably a configuration issue somewhere.
[20:19] <erUSUL> Dandan: can you pass the interface name to wiresharkl in command line? « gksudo wireshark -i mon0 »
[20:19] <Incubator> hello
[20:20] <coolsan> plz help my wabcam is not workin in gnme :-(
[20:20] <MM2> Alexia_Death: Linux Kernel panic VFS unable to mount root fs

[20:20] <hmmm> hi
[20:21] <Kyle__> Anyone?  Anyone?
[20:21] <lucas_> have the sources of <IP_ADDRESS> and compiled successfully the kernel. Is it possible to apply the patch for the new <IP_ADDRESS> and compile only the changes?
[20:21] <hmmm> Is anyone having idea, whether we can install MPLAB in ubuntu?
[20:21] <Kyle__> sam555: Has anyone answered you yet?
[20:21] <sam555> Kyle__: no, but I think I found an answer.
[20:21] <coolsan> Incubator:  you should install wireless driver
[20:21] <Incubator> when i use the command "rfkill list"
[20:21] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: do an lspci on your laptop and tell us what brand of wifi adapter your aptop has.
[20:21] <sam555> Kyle__: i'm just going to use a printer that can handle the linux os
[20:22] <Incubator> it says that the wireless lan is hardblocked
[20:22] <Dandan> erUSUL: no it only loads wireshark but i still cant se mon0 interface
[20:22] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: do you have a wireless radio switch on your laptop?
[20:22] <bobboau> is it possible to use ubuntu one on a server, so I can share a synced folder via samba and let my windows machines have access to it?
[20:22] <snoflake> what does it mean to mark a blueprint as superseded in launchpad?
[20:22] <Kyle__> sam555: Most of the "windows" printers actually work fine in linux.  If it's USB, just plug it in, see if ubuntu sees it.
[20:22] <Incubator>  Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
[20:22] <Incubator>  Ethernet controller: Realtek Semicunductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
[20:23] <sam555> Kyle__: didn't know that!
[20:23] <Incubator> i do have a wifi switch on my laptop but it's turned on
[20:23] <lucas_> have the sources of <IP_ADDRESS> and compiled successfully the kernel. Is it possible to apply the patch for the new <IP_ADDRESS> and compile only the changes?
[20:23] <sam555> Kyle__: I was mostly concerned with the "special" applications that come with this printer.  It's an all in one.  So people use it to scan documents.
[20:23] <turgon_> hmmm, u can try wine... but i dunno if it makes it work... Anywayy, i had a vm running on virtual box on it win xp.. i ran mplab on it
[20:23] <Kyle__> sam555: Yea.  What type of printer is it?  I used to manage a big big print-server in my old role.  I'm pretty familiar with them.
[20:23] <Kyle__> sam555: Ah.  Well, those may or may not work.  The scanning function will probably work as a generic sane scanner though.
[20:24] <SkinWall> jrib: got it to work! thanks anyway :)
[20:24] <Incubator> my laptop is hp g7070ej
[20:24] <Kyle__> sam555: It's usb or network?
[20:24] <sam555> Kyle__: usb
[20:24] <adac> I installed ubuntu on my usb stick. Now I'm on my laptop where i have wireless but it doesn't seem to have those modules for wlan installed. What package do i need to install?
[20:24] <SkinWall> aargh, why doesn't it work when i put in the nickname?
[20:24] <dwarder> i have set in my appearance settings visual effects to none, now when i switch desctops i see white flash screen before changing, can i set this "flash screen" to black? or don't have this at all?
[20:24] <coolsan> Incubator: go to system->admin->restricted hardware
[20:24] <dwarder> desktops*
[20:24] <jrib> SkinWall: ok, the original thing you pasted does work it just likely doesn't do what you want :)
[20:24] <hdgc> SkinWall:  find / -name "*.jpg" -exec mv {} /folder1/folder2/
[20:25] <Incubator> i dont have restricted hardware option
[20:25] <Kyle__> sam555: Fortune favors the brave ;)  Plug it in, see what happenes.
[20:25] <MM2> does the 10.04.1 standard kernel has LVM support?
[20:25] <Kyle__> It certainly won't hurt.
[20:25] <Incubator> and i dont have "admin", i have "administration" if thats matters
[20:25] <NeverGone> bye
[20:25] <sam555> Kyle__: indeed!
[20:25] <Kyle__> MM2: Yes, but ubuntu doesn't instal lthe LVM packages unless you installed onto an LVM partition.
[20:26] <coolsan> no
[20:26] <MM2> what then could be the problem when system does not boot after upgrading from 8.04 to 10.04.1?
[20:27] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: ITseems your card has several options for a driver
[20:27] <coolsan> Incubator: go to system->preference->main menu
[20:27] <Dandan> erUSUL: still nothing any ideas?
[20:28] <Dandan> or another way to leave monitor mode on without it going automatically to managed?
[20:28] <Incubator> coolsan - did it.
[20:28] <maedox> Any audiophiles in here? I have a few FLAC files with 24 bits per sample. How do I transcode them to 16 bits per sample? flac does nothing when I try the --bps=16 parameter. >_<
[20:28] <Incubator> alexia - what does it meen?
[20:28] <coolsan> Incubator: now go to system and add restricted hardware to administration
[20:28] <SkinWall> jrib, well, i had to "find and move" thrice to get everything. when i try to use "find" to search for multiple files and then try to move everything in one go, it only moves the last search.
[20:29] <jrib> SkinWall: use parentheses around your A -or B, like so: \( A -or B \)
[20:29] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: It means you may need to install a restricted driver as I see other kind people a trying to instruct you to do.
[20:30] <Incubator> how do i add it?
[20:30] <Incubator> i don't see it unchecked
[20:30] <Eighteens> i was trying to open a doc with open office.org in ubuntu 10.04, i just got a message "Could not set application as the default: Failed to write file '/home/ubuntu/.local/share/applications/  No space left on device" but the hd has 100+ gigs left, what do i need to do to fix this
[20:31] <biopyte> i'm running a 4x4 virtual desktop. i dont like a window partially moved across the left/right border showing up (wrapping) on the other side of the desktop. what compiz setting stops this behaviour? hopefully i expressed myself clearly.
[20:31] <tgywa> Hi
[20:31] <tgywa> how do I type greek fonts on Ubuntu?
[20:32] <coolsan> Incubator:in main menu see in left side
[20:32] <coolsan> Incubator:at last  u will find administration
[20:32] <coolsan> Incubator:click on it
[20:33] <Incubator> i deleted "administration by mistake, how do i recover it?
[20:34] <coolsan> Incubator:u should go to main menu and click on system in left side
[20:35] <Incubator> yes, i went to the main menu and i accidently deleted "administration" folder from system
[20:35] <stephen_> I'm new to ubuntu; I just installed v10.04.1 on an HP a6248x PC.  I need the DVD drivers.
[20:35] <latagore> My battery doesn't seem to display its current battery capacity
[20:36] <Incubator> now i only have preferences folder and controcenter folder unchecked
[20:36] <latagore> Incubator: Why would you do something like that
[20:36] <wazzup> is it possible to encrypt ubuntu partition but not the windows one ?
[20:36] <Seveas> stephen_, you don't need drivers for a dvd player...
[20:36] <MasterOfDisaster> hi, do-release-upgrade dies, it complains about unresolvable packet conflicts, but doesn't print which ones. Any ideas how to find out?
[20:36] <coolsan> Incubator:chek on control center
[20:37] <Incubator> i miss clicked, i tried to click properties and i clicked on delete by mistake and it didn't even gave warning message
[20:37] <latagore> Ah D:
[20:38] <Incubator> where is the control center? im really sorry about all this questions, i'm really new to ubuntu
[20:39] <stephen_> Seveas, but I can't play DVD's.  Why not?
[20:39] <Incubator> to make it easier for you, there are 2 problems:
[20:39] <Seveas> !dvd | stephen_
[20:39] <Incubator> 1. my wifi isn't working
[20:39] <Seveas> stephen_, probably because they are encrypted. The links above will help you
[20:39] <Incubator> 2. i deleted administration folder by mistake and i want to recover it to the system menu
[20:40] <latagore> BAT1 tells me my battery is not present, what do I do
[20:40] <coolsan> Incubator:ok. in main menu there is preference and control center
[20:40] <Seveas> latagore, insert battery
[20:40] <coolsan> in system
[20:40] <latagore> Seveas: I wouldn't be here if my battery wasn't inserted =_=
[20:40] <Seveas> latagore, most laptops only have 1 battery, BAT0
[20:40] <Incubator> oh ok
[20:41] <latagore> Seveas: No BAT0 directory
[20:41] <mgmuscari> is there a way to unbind the keyboard shortcuts for the indicator-applet in 10.04?
[20:41] <Incubator> ok i entered the control center
[20:41] <mgmuscari> mod+s is an important shortcut key that i use in compiz, and the indicator-applet is overriding it :/. only gripe with upgrading from 9.10 so far
[20:42] <l_> hi
[20:43] <Isonyx> Hello Everyone..
[20:43] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: Find a terminal and run jockey-gtk
[20:43] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: thats the restricted drivers manager
[20:43] <Isonyx> Could anyone assist me. I want to become a Black Hat in general...
[20:43] <Seveas> mgmuscari, looks like you need to patch the code for that
[20:44] <mgmuscari> Seveas: yeah, i found a patch... i find it pretty ridiculous that this would make it into an LTS release @_@
[20:44] <coolsan> Incubator:yeah jockey-gtk is best solution.
[20:44] <Seveas> mgmuscari, I can't say I'm impressed either :)
[20:45] <Dandan> Hello!
[20:45] <Alexia_Death> Isonyx: That takes a big brain and an asshole attitude to the world.
[20:45] <Incubator> there is an error message
[20:45] <MasterOfDisaster> do-release-upgrade dies with this: http://pastebin.com/QwzPCZbf
[20:45] <Dandan> I'm having a problem with wireshark and monitor mode some help please..
[20:45] <Isonyx> I'm currently attempting to train for Gray Hat since the extreme bad guy was never my preference.
[20:45] <Isonyx> I'm ready to learn any programming languages.
[20:45] <mgmuscari> Seveas: i use super+s for compiz grouping window selection - this is very annoying lol
[20:45] <dwarder> what CLI dictionary can i use?
[20:45] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: elaborate...
[20:45] <Pici> !ot | Isonyx
[20:45] <Seveas> Isonyx, this is an ubuntu support channel, please go elsewhere.
[20:45] <Incubator> "downloading package indexes failed, please check your network status. most drivers will not be able"
[20:46] <Pici> Alexia_Death: And please mind your language here, this is a family friendly channel.
[20:46] <Alexia_Death> Isonyx: If you want to be a hacker you need to learn all of them:P
[20:46] <Isonyx> I know some already.
[20:46] <mgmuscari> Seveas: thanks, just gonna use gnome-do for managing my session from now on :p
[20:46] <Seveas> mgmuscari, :)
[20:46] <mgmuscari> later
[20:46] <ink> What writes /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[20:46] <Isonyx> Could anyone tell me about the standard Daemons running in the background?
[20:46] <Alexia_Death> Pici: Sorry.
[20:47] <coolsan> Incubator:you should have internet conn. to find restricted driver
[20:47] <Alexia_Death> Isonyx: ps aux
[20:47] <ink> the file claims it is written by 75-persistent-net-generator.rules, but no such file exists on my system (that i can find)
[20:47] <Seveas> ink, /lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules
[20:47] <ink> Seveas:  thank you so much
[20:48] <Seveas> ink, the 'locate' command would have found it for you :)
[20:48] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: Live is easyer, if you connect your laptop via ethernet while configuring.
[20:48] <hmmm> hi
[20:48] <Seveas> hello
[20:48] <Isonyx> Those are the running Daemons right?
[20:48] <Isonyx> Not the standard Daemons..
[20:48] <hmmm> I installed Matlab and now i cannot see its icon on Apllication
[20:48] <hmmm> Application Menu
[20:48] <Alexia_Death> Isonyx: Eac daemon has a process, that lists current processes.
[20:49] <Incubator> i tried to connect the laptop directly to the modem without the wireless lan
[20:49] <Seveas> hmmm, then you'll need to add it yourself :)
[20:49] <Incubator> but it didn't work
[20:49]  * radioman-lt http://www.blogtalkradio.com/peter-joseph/2010/09/29/92910--peter-joseph-8-lectures-1-the-zeitgeist-movement--internal-structure-processes
[20:49] <hmmm> Seveas, How?
[20:49] <Seveas> !ops | radioman-lt spam
[20:49] <Dandan> well i im trying to leave monitor mode on without it going automatically to managed i need wireshark to be able to read all of my lan traffic
[20:49] <Alexia_Death> Isonyx: Learn basic system architecture. And C/asm and some scripting languages.
[20:50] <maco> radioman-lt: mis-paste?
[20:50] <Isonyx> May I have a list of standard processes? I want to know when I have foreign ones running.
[20:50] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: Didnt work how?
[20:50] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: I'll recommend capturing on the console with tcpdump, then view it later with wireshark
[20:51] <Alexia_Death> Incubator:  Do you need to do somethin in your wndws computer befor e you get internet, o is it plug and play?
[20:51] <Dandan> will i need to have monitor mode on?
[20:51] <yitz_> What package is netcfg part of?
[20:51] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: yes
[20:51] <Alexia_Death> yitz_: netcfg?
[20:52] <mmaksimov> Hi all. Is there an easy way to edit the labels shown in the grub menu? I mean, if there are several different *buntu flavors installed including betas it is really annoying yo remember which combination of kernel + /dev/sdaN means which system :(
[20:52] <Dandan> well thats my problem everytime i set it up network manager changes it back to managed
[20:52] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: which interface are you trying to capture from? lan? wifi?
[20:52] <Dandan> yes
[20:52] <Seveas> mmaksimov, look in /etc/grub
[20:52] <yitz_> Alexia_Death: The thing used by the debian installer that configures network stuff for installation.
[20:52] <_ikke_> Aptitude is giving error because of some weird dependency wich shouldn't exist. Somehow it thinks mysql-workbench-gpl is a depency for the fglrx packages. The status of that package is partially installed. When I try to remove it, it says something bad happened during install and then quites. Is there a way I can fix this?
[20:53] <yitz_> I'd like to redo the config so I can play with the debconf without having to do it through PXE boot
[20:53] <mmaksimov> Seveas: ...and? every update_grub invocation seems to regenerate the list of systems
[20:53] <Seveas> yitz_, it's part of debian-installer I guess
[20:53] <Dandan> MasterOfDisaster: wes i'm in wlan0
[20:54] <Seveas> mmaksimov, from files in that directory..
[20:54] <hmmm> The new skype is available for Linux?
[20:54] <hmmm> skype 5
[20:54] <Seveas> !info skype
[20:54] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: so you want to use wifi in managed mode while capturing in monitor mode?
[20:55] <Seveas> hmmm, the canonical partner repo has <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:55] <Incubator> it just didn't recognized that im connected to the internet
[20:55] <Incubator> when im using windows i dont need to do anything
[20:55]  * yitz_ finds debconf docs
[20:55] <Seveas> yitz_, netcfg != debconf
[20:55] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: If I'm not mistaken, the card must support that.
[20:55] <Incubator> i just plug the cable and i'm connected
[20:55] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: and I
[20:55] <Dandan> no i just want to capture in monitor mode
[20:56] <sam555> what does an "unpriviledged" user mean in ubuntu?
[20:56] <yitz_> Seveas: I know. But doesn't debconf let me rerun the confugration?
[20:56] <Seveas> sam555, not root.
[20:56] <Seveas> yitz_, no.
[20:56] <hdgc> _ikke_:apt-get -f install
[20:56] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: stop networkmanager, user airmon-start, and then tcpdump
[20:56] <latagore> My battery isn't detected by Ubuntu
[20:56] <sam555> Seveas: if I want someone just to have web browser access, do I give them unpriviledged or desktop user?
[20:56] <mmaksimov> Seveas, there's only /etc/grub.d, is it the right place to look?
[20:57] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: when you're finished, run airmon-stop and start networkmanager again
[20:57] <Seveas> mmaksimov, yes, sorry
[20:57] <Gwar> Hi everyone. Is there any way to query (from the terminal or otherwise) what the mouse pointer position is?
[20:57] <yitz_> Pity :S
[20:57] <Seveas> sam555, neither. Both can do much more than just webbrowser. If you want a kiosk-ish system, do a kiosk-ish setup, possibly with a specialized distro
[20:57] <_ikke_> hdgc: It could not find the archive, but I'll try to manual install the .deb file and find out if it fixes the problem
[20:58] <sam555> Seveas: gotcha, thanks for the info!
[20:58] <hmmm> Me and my friends have a problem, the battery life of our Laptop reduced after we installed Linux , why?
[20:59] <ComputerJy> hmmm: what version of ubuntu are you using and what Window manager?
[20:59] <hmmm> ubuntu 9.04
[20:59] <ink> Gwar:  check out xnee
[20:59] <hmmm> ComputerJy, Ubuntu 9.04
[21:00] <ComputerJy> hmmm: why not upgrade! Ubuntu got much faster and better recently and it just keeps getting better
[21:00] <Gwar> ink: thanks, I will
[21:00] <delinquentme> does ubuntu have a native torrent program?
[21:00] <hdgc> _ikke_: dpkg --configure -a
[21:00] <routebee> i have a more general question... Google is a sudointelligence right, document recognition, similar to voice or image recognition and they have spent a ton of money on kernel development.
[21:00] <ComputerJy> delinquentme: Transmission
[21:01] <hmmm> ComputerJy, Actually now i am in 10.10 only , but battery life reduced while we were in 9.04
[21:01] <Pici> routebee: Looks like its shaping up to be a question for #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:01] <routebee> why is ubuntu called ubuntu (a man in zulu)and android android, is my ubuntu install an AI?
[21:01] <delinquentme> ComputerJy, thanks!
[21:02] <ComputerJy> hmmm batteries have a life time you know, it doesn't have to be ubuntu's fault
[21:02] <ComputerJy> delinquentme: You're welcome
[21:02] <hmmm> ComputerJy, ok
[21:02] <nogo> and i won't take any stupid laptop mode script
[21:03] <nogo> i have my own way
[21:03] <stephen_> I followed the steps at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  When I try to use Movie Player to play "Religulous" I get: "Totem was not able to play this disc.  No reason."
[21:03] <mmaksimov> Seveas, there're just numbered setup/probing scripts in there, I cannot think of an easy way of using them for inserting "human-friendly" OS name for something installed in another partition instead of the default kernel/partition combo
[21:03] <ComputerJy> hmmm you can check your laptop manufacturer for battery profiling utilities
[21:03] <gpmidi_wrk> I keep getting these errors on one of my Ubuntu 10.04 servers: http://pastebin.com/A375RH6m It happens whenever I try to run `sync` or dpkg tries to sync the disks.
[21:03] <bartmon> stephen_: Try installing VLC media player
[21:03] <linuxpoet> Is there any decent scan software for Ubuntu. The stock stuff doesn't seem to support multi-page
[21:04] <ComputerJy> stephen_ what is the file format for that file?
[21:04] <stephen_> I installed VLC media player earlier.  Do I need to remove it and reinstall it?
[21:04] <ComputerJy> stephen_ what is the file format for that file?
[21:04] <Seveas> gpmidi_wrk, time to buy a new disk
[21:04] <mmaksimov> linuxpoet: did you try xsane?
[21:04] <BluesKaj> stephen_, don't use totem...it's not a good media player
[21:04] <linuxpoet> mmaksimov: yeah that's the default
[21:04] <linuxpoet> and I can scan
[21:04] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: It's on a 12 disk RAID6 array
[21:04] <linuxpoet> just not multi-page
[21:04] <stephen_> ComputerJy I don't know; it's a commercially bought DVD.
[21:04] <ComputerJy> BlueKaj shame on you. I actually like it more thna VLC
[21:04] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: Linux software raid
[21:04] <Seveas> gpmidi_wrk, then it's a game of find the faulty disk :)
[21:05] <ComputerJy> stephen_ are you sure the DVD is not corrupted?
[21:05] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: <insert long string of profanity here>
[21:05] <Seveas> :)
[21:05] <hmmm> Hi, I installed Matlab and now i dont know where its icon lies for running it
[21:05] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: Wouldn't I be getting SCSI errors if it was a failing disk holding things up?
[21:05] <nimrod10> !matlab
[21:05] <gpmidi_wrk> timeouts and such
[21:05] <funky_karun> how to configure accurev in ubuntu?
[21:05] <ComputerJy> hmmm I'd guess in Development menu section
[21:06] <Seveas> gpmidi_wrk, I'd expect that
[21:06] <stephen_> ComputerJy, yes.  It plays in Windows on another computer.
[21:06] <ComputerJy> hmmm I'd guess in Programing menu section
[21:06] <nimrod10> ! matlab
[21:06] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: I'm not getting any of those
[21:06] <nimrod10> !apt-get
[21:06] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: hmm, my manual `sync` finished. It took 15 min, but it finished
[21:07] <spvensko_> hi, is there an easy way to check the linenumber of a grep result?
[21:07] <ComputerJy> stephen_ hmm, this is confusing. Because in any normal scenario tottem can play any DVD out of the box
[21:07] <mmaksimov> linuxpoet AFAIR there's some odd config option like setting "multipage" target than selecting file format, or maybe in reverse order.... I did scan multipage pdf-s with just LiveCD, so try digging deeper into the options....
[21:07] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: perhaps I'm just overloading the system. The load avg is up to 5.5.
[21:07] <trism> spvensko_: add -n
[21:07] <spvensko_> ty trism
[21:07] <ComputerJy> stephen_ sometimes a codec file is needed for audio encoding
[21:07] <Seveas> gpmidi_wrk, I've had it once a few months ago that the kernel was confused and actually BUGed once after giving me sync timeouts
[21:07] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: or overloading the array with random IO to be more percise
[21:07] <Seveas> reboot fixed that
[21:08] <Seveas> was on maverick though
[21:08] <ComputerJy> stephen_ Anyway, if you're using any version but 10.10 try mediabuntu for codecs
[21:08] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: I was getting this behavor yesterday. I rebooted then and the behavor has resumed after a few hours.
[21:08] <ComputerJy> stephen_ Anyway, if you're using any version but 10.10 try *medibuntu for codecs
[21:09] <suigeneris> !find libmp3lame
[21:09] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: I may just be overloading the array with random IO. 3x instances of rtorrent are running with a good 50+ very large torrents on each.
[21:10] <suigeneris> Audio LAVC, couldn't find encoder for codec libmp3lame. <--- what do I need to get? gstreamer-something?
[21:10] <Seveas> gpmidi_wrk, hmmyes, that could cause some delay
[21:10] <Seveas> 15 minuntes is excessive though
[21:10] <Seveas> which fs?
[21:10] <faceface> hello
[21:10] <faceface> how do I install a deb?
[21:10] <Seveas> faceface, a deb of what?
[21:10] <suigeneris> faceface man dpkg
[21:10] <_ikke_> dpkg -i filename
[21:10] <ComputerJy> faceface just double click it :)
[21:10] <faceface> /tmp/RealPlayer11GOLD.deb

[21:22] <faceface> Seveas: old unfortunately... I can find out...
[21:22] <hmmm> After installing updates in boot menu more and more options are coming for the same operating system
[21:23] <Seveas> faceface, then you'll need to upgrade :)
[21:23] <hmmm> how can i remove that
[21:23] <Seveas> hmmm, remove older kernels
[21:23] <faceface> Seveas: yeah...
[21:23] <faceface> will it fix it? ;-)

[21:24] <Shinydan> how do
[21:24] <ackatack> jrib, i can't install libapache2-mod-php5, i get the following error: The following packages have unmet dependencies:  libapache2-mod-php5: Depends: php5-common (= 5.2.10.dfsg.1-2ubuntu6.5) but 5.2.14-0.dotdeb.0 is to be installed E: Broken packages
[21:25] <hmmm> Seveas, Thnx
[21:25] <jrib> ackatack: does "dotdeb" mean anything to you?
[21:25] <ackatack> yeah, i think it's a debian install package
[21:25] <jrib> ackatack: right... so what do you conclude?
[21:26] <Shinydan> Was having problems with 3D stuff on Radeon SE graphics card. I saw the driver get updated - how can I see if the problems are still there?
[21:26] <hdgc> faceface
[21:26] <ackatack> jrib: i conclude that ubuntu wants to install a debian install package but i don't know why
[21:26] <ackatack> jrib: i've looked over my sources.list and i'm at a loss
[21:26] <jrib> ackatack: you don't have dotdeb in your sources.list?
[21:26] <Seveas> ackatack, you're using dodgy repos. Don't do that. Your system is already meesed up probably.

[21:28] <Seveas> autokill if it says more than X nicknames?
[21:28] <dagon666> Seveas: yeah but I remember that there was a small console tool which act similar to cat on doc files
[21:28] <dagon666> just can recall the name of it
[21:28] <jrib> Seveas: probably based on saying the same thing in multiple channels
[21:28] <Seveas> dagon666, yeah there is. Can't remember its name :)

[21:30] <murlidhar> i messd up my sound and the sound menu indicator doesn't work on my gnome panel .............all i did was to remove the pulse audio system equilizer.
[21:31] <ackatack> jrib: how's this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/502837/
[21:31] <PsychoMario> Anyone got any recommendations for some good 3D CAD/modelling software for ubuntu?
[21:31] <murlidhar> how should i bring my sound app indicator menu working again ?
[21:31] <jrib> ackatack: so you either had dotdeb enabled at some point or installed a deb
[21:31] <Segaja> Seveas: any other ideas?
[21:31] <dagon666> VCoolio: yeah, thats the one, thanks again :)
[21:31] <Seveas> Segaja, system -> preferences -> network proxies
[21:31] <jrib> ackatack: if you had a debian repository enabled and ran an update, you should probably just reinstall as it will be much quicker
[21:31] <Seveas> did you set one there?
[21:32] <ackatack> jrib: okay, i'll admit it, i installed a dotdeb file to get GD working with PHP5 in drupal
[21:32] <Segaja> Seveas: no. i already wrote that a few minuts ago. no proxy set
[21:32] <Master> murlidhar: alsamixer, turn up the volume. Also try pavucontrol. As, perhaps a last resort you can reinstall that package :)
[21:32] <VCoolio> dagon666: no problem; it's nice with zenity textview for a nautilus right click action on a .doc
[21:32] <jrib> ackatack: if you just installed a .deb file, then downgrade it back to the version in ubuntu's repositories (gd works fine anyway doesn't it?)
[21:32] <Segaja> Seveas: ah that was an other location. no, no proxy there either
[21:33] <jsidhu> does ubuntu come with any sort of a simple benchmark utility that gives me an idea of the performance of a machine? Ive got a few systems and id like to get a "relative" idea of performance.. (cpu/mem/io..etc?
[21:33] <murlidhar> Master: the sound is working though
[21:33] <Segaja> Seveas: is it possible to see some more log output from update-notifier to see where it failes?
[21:33] <ackatack> jrib: this was a few months ago, i was having issues with GD working with the latest release of drupal at the time
[21:33] <Segaja> fails
[21:33] <VCoolio> jsidhu: conky
[21:33] <Seveas> Segaja, try /var/log/messages or other things in /var/log
[21:33] <murlidhar> Master: E: Couldn't find package alsamixer
[21:33] <jrib> ackatack: that's fine, doesn't really matter when
[21:34] <Master> murlidhar: Rightclick the menu and re-add the sound indicator ?
[21:34] <ackatack> jrib: how do I downgrade back?
[21:34] <VCoolio> jsidhu: not sure if it's what you're asking, but you can monitor cpu/mem/io with it
[21:34] <jrib> ackatack: sudo apt-get install PACKAGE=VERSION
[21:34] <Master> murlidhar: You should have that alsamixer already
[21:34] <jsidhu> no, thats not what im asking
[21:34] <Seveas> murlidhar, it's part of alsa-utils
[21:34] <Segaja> strange... i didn't change anything but it works
[21:35] <Seveas> jsidhu, top
[21:35] <jsidhu> ..come on man, top? really..
[21:35] <murlidhar> Master: i added the indicator app again but still doesn't seem to work
[21:35] <jsidhu> im looking for a benchmark utility
[21:36] <Seveas> jsidhu, benchmarks and simple don't go in the same sentence. You better just compare system specs (cpu, memory etc...)
[21:36] <Master> murlidhar: Alsa, the kernel and some drivers is what makes the sound work then pulseaudio is tacked on for a few people that want to control the sound output a bit better.
[21:36] <Segaja> Seveas: don't know why, but it works now suddenly. thanks for all the help
[21:36] <jsidhu> Seveas: that doesnt make sense
[21:36] <Master> murlidhar: Rightclick it and select sound settings ?
[21:36] <murlidhar> Master: doesn't work
[21:36] <murlidhar> Master: right clickin on it doesnt work
[21:37] <murlidhar> Master: left clicking actually.
[21:37] <Master> murlidhar: Give more output please... no popup menu that lets you select anything else ?
[21:37] <murlidhar> Master: no popup menu comes
[21:37] <Master> murlidhar: Rightclick
[21:38] <Noldorin> hello. is it possible to make icons on the ubuntu 10.04 desktop snap vertically?
[21:38] <murlidhar> right clickin shows options to move the applet or remove the applet
[21:38] <Noldorin> by default they only snap horizontall to the grid
[21:38] <Master> murlidhar: Or have you rewired the mouse-buttons ? :)
[21:38] <murlidhar> Master: nopes.
[21:38] <Master> murlidhar: KDE ?
[21:38] <murlidhar> nopes gnome
[21:38] <Master> murlidhar: I also use gnome and i have that..
[21:39] <murlidhar> Master: have what ?
[21:39] <jsidhu> ahh, lmbench should do it
[21:39] <Master> murlidhar: Rightclick.. "Silence" and "Sound settings"
[21:40] <murlidhar> Master: on mine right clicking it gives options to remove the applet from or move the applet.
[21:40] <hmmm> dagon

[21:40] <snake_> i'm having trouble burning audio cds with ubuntu.

[21:40] <hwg> Any idea what is causing that?
[21:40] <Master> murlidhar: Then you dont have the panel-applet i have
[21:40] <hmmm> dagon66,why u said thnx to me?
[21:41] <Master> murlidhar: You can always use pavucontrol
[21:41] <murlidhar> Master: maybe... i am using the indicator-applet
[21:41] <snake_> I'm having trouble burning audio cds with ubuntu 10
[21:41] <DudeHammer> Is there a quick way to change the visual settings for the root user to match those of the non-root user?
[21:42] <hwg> I'm having a problem viewing the TTY when via CTRL+ALT+F1, I just see a bunch of garbled colors.
[21:42] <murlidhar> Master: yes i can but i wonder why it suddenly stopped working? i can't get it back ?
[21:42] <murlidhar> Master: i can't mute now from the panel :(
[21:42] <Noldorin> hello. is it possible to make icons on the ubuntu 10.04 desktop snap vertically?
[21:42] <snake_> it appears to not even mount the disk..
[21:43] <hwg> I'm having a problem viewing the TTY when going via CTRL+ALT+F1, I just see a bunch of garbled colors.

[21:45] <hwg> Is there a way to change the TTY resolution perhaps?
[21:45] <murlidhar> Master: yes mine too ....indicator-applet uses the gnome-volume-control
[21:45] <murlidhar> Master:
[21:45] <murlidhar> Master:
[21:45] <VCoolio> hwg: yes, at the end of the kernel line that grub boots, add vga=code where code reflects your resolution and color depth

[21:46] <hwg> Ok... VCoolio, would that only affect me at startup or would that carry over?

[21:46] <VCoolio> hwg: only on startup and in tty
[21:46] <usuario> hola
[21:46] <hwg> ok
[21:47] <Master> murlidhar: Aha, well... maybe its compiled against (requires) the thing you removed ?
[21:47] <wjlroe> Hi, I can't get X working on my Vaio - 1366x768 display and Intel HD graphics. I've tried setting i915.modeset=0 and that doesn't work

[21:47] <VCoolio> hwg: codes for example here http://gionn.net/grub-vga-resolution-table.html
[21:47] <hwg> I know the vga tables :P
[21:47] <hwg> Thanks though.
[21:47] <Master> murlidhar: What did you remove ? ... Add it again
[21:47] <snake_> hdgc, when i put my disc in it doesn't ask me anything. so i tried to do it myself. i opened brasero cd burner. but it can't recognize my disc
[21:47] <ackatack> jrib: that worked, i've downgraded several other packages that came up in the dependency list
[21:48] <hwg> my GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX is saying it was at vga=799, is that even a VGA resolution??
[21:49] <ymasory_> does anyone have recent experience with TimeVault? is it mature enough to use?

[21:50] <Finity> Hey guys, is there a bug report on ubuntu 10.10 freezing when trying to resume from sleep?
[21:50] <snake_> hdgc, don't you have a solution, or are you researching.
[21:50] <Master> murlidhar: Dont remove parts of stuff and hope that the rest of the stuff will work maybe, but its a good way to learn/the hard way :) Reboot after reinstalling that package
[21:51] <Finity> I'm on a laptop, and if I close the laptop (which puts the computer to sleep), and open it back up (sometimes, though not always) it'll freeze at the terminal before resuming. HD activity indicator goes wild for a bit, then stops
[21:51] <murlidhar> Master: YES :)
[21:51] <Master> :)
[21:51] <ackatack> jrib: thanks, i think it's all sorted for now
