[06:03] <Younder> Why does ubuntu use gnome version 2 instead of 3?
[06:03] <madbomber> 11.04?
[06:03] <wechat> Aranel: if u want to clone disk then pribably not
[06:04] <yagoo> Noor_egy, what's on sda5/6/7 (c:\ is which one?)
[06:04] <ZiRiu> Younder, you can install gnome 3 if you want
[06:04] <yagoo> Noor_egy, if u dont know you can mount the ntfs drives with the ntfs-3g module
[06:04] <Noor_egy> sda1
[06:04] <Younder> Ziber, I know
[06:04] <Aranel> wechat: I want to move my entire Ubuntu installation from one hdd to another and start using it from there
[06:04] <Younder> ZiRiu, I know
[06:04] <yagoo> Noor_egy, can you type ->"file -s /dev/sda1" ?
[06:04] <suifengl> but now
[06:05] <yagoo> Noor_egy, that just probes
[06:05] <madbomber> i use ubuntu classic on 11.04
[06:05] <madbomber> cuz the new one sux
[06:05] <madbomber> i just installed 64 bit
[06:05] <madbomber> seems faster
[06:05] <nit-wit> Aranel, you can dd it, or clone it with clonezilla which saves the mbr, or trasfer it with gparted.
[06:06] <Younder> 64 bit is obviously faster on a 64 bit machine. It also requires 30% more RAM..
[06:06] <Aranel> nit-wit: gparted = some GUI love ^^ how to do it with gparted?
[06:06] <madbomber> i didnt even know if i had a 64 bit machine lol, but its an intel multi core
[06:06] <madbomber> so its 64 bit right/
[06:06] <Noor_egy> yagoo http://codepad.org/c3sVgymN
[06:06] <madbomber> it said so when i ran lcpu
[06:06] <madbomber> or whatever
[06:06] <FloodBot1> madbomber: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:06] <babu> is there any java channel
[06:06] <nit-wit> Aranel, it is a copy paste I believe, the second HD has to have a same or bigger partition.
[06:06] <jen> o.o
[06:07] <jen> ken...
[06:07] <babu> i want to copy the result of command after execution to clipboard
[06:07] <Younder> madbomber, depends some 64 bit machines are not supported
[06:07] <madbomber> well its running so it must be eh.   ?  where do i look up my system.  i dont see it under about unbuntu.  sorry ima newb
[06:07] <babu> for e.g when i execute cat a.c ....the contents of a.c should be copied to clipboard..
[06:07] <babu> how to do it
[06:07] <KM0201> jen: you have a PM
[06:08] <Younder> madbomber, look for em64 the MAN extension to 64 bit. Intel licences it for it's own CPU's too
[06:08] <Younder> AMD
[06:08] <Lasers> babu: xclip ?
[06:09] <Lasers> !info xclip | babu
[06:09] <gaurav_natty> i want to analize my website traffic on my terminal
[06:09] <madbomber> i know but where do i go to see my system profile, like my hardware, in ubuntu classic shell
[06:09] <yagoo> Noor_egy, can you type "mount" ?
[06:09] <yagoo> (mount <enter>)
[06:09] <Younder> ubuntu does automount
[06:09] <yagoo> Noor_egy, that will list the mountpoints.. try seeing if /dev/sda5/6/7 is mounted
[06:10] <gaurav_natty> i want to analize my website traffic on my terminal , is there any tool
[06:10] <Younder> so mount/unmount is usually unnecessary
[06:10] <yagoo> gaurav_natty, google webalizer
[06:10] <tamran> is there a PPA for old kernels?
[06:10] <TimmyT>  im going to make a multiseat. here i see an example of xorg.conf : http://pastebin.com/YeCsnmhy . in the device section where BusID is defined is written PCI:1:0:0 and somewhere else PCI 0:2:0 . How can I find out this configurations on my own system? i've an onboard graphic card and a PCI Express one
[06:10] <Noor_egy> yagoo http://codepad.org/gyPj2tyL
[06:10] <gaurav_natty> can i see that result on my terminal
[06:10] <madbomber> where do i go to see my damn hardware from ubuntus perspetive? :)
[06:10] <gaurav_natty> yagoo, can i see that result on my terminal
[06:11] <babu> Lasers, wat s meant by !info
[06:11] <yagoo> Noor_egy, can u acess the desktop with nautilus or konqueror to  /media/D ,  /media/E or,  /media/F ?
[06:11] <Younder> madbomber, administrative meny, system
[06:11] <madbomber> oh younder, i have 7 processors at 870 @ 2.93 GHz?  running64 bit natty
[06:11] <madbomber> this means im actually in 64 right? :)
[06:11] <st47> babu: it's just an instruction that tells ubottu to give you information, see the message that ubottu said
[06:11] <yagoo> Noor_egy, see which one has "Windows" or "WINDOWS" folder..
[06:11] <Younder> madbomber, sounds like a intel i7
[06:12] <Younder> madbomber, so yes
[06:12] <madbomber> its 64bit if its running ubuntu 65 rite?  man im rusty lol. okay thanks
[06:12] <madbomber> yea it seems faster
[06:12] <madbomber> i alsmost installed mint or some other dumb ones ubuntu
[06:12] <madbomber> kubuntu
[06:12] <Aranel> nit-wit: okay I created a new/bigger ext3 partition on my new hdd, now how can I copy/paste it? :)
[06:13] <yagoo> gaurav_natty, i believe there are so many tools for this.. this isn't really ubuntu related
[06:13] <nit-wit> Aranel, hyou on a live cd?
[06:13] <Aranel> nit-wit: nope, but I do have one -Ubuntu 11.04-, I can boot from it
[06:13] <KM0201> madbomber: you can confirm what kernel you're using, by typing "uname -a" no quotes, and don't forget the space, in a terminal
[06:13] <yagoo> gaurav_natty, i would use "list of software web analysis site:wikipedia" in google searcvh
[06:13] <gaurav_natty> yagoo, i want all my website traffic on terminal in ubuntu
[06:13] <babu> when i typed !info..it displays man page for talk
[06:14] <babu> wat it means
[06:14] <nit-wit> Aranel, you have to do this from a live cd using gparted just turn off the swap and right click the partion to save , then copy and then paste to the new HD.
[06:14] <yagoo> Noor_egy, did my post make sense?
[06:14] <yagoo> Noor_egy, nautilus is gnome's default file browser
[06:15] <nit-wit> Aranel, been awhile since I have done it but it is justa a dd using gparted, I think you may have to load the grub bootloader to the new HD's mbr.
[06:15] <wechat> madbomber: cut some processors for me ^)
[06:15] <nit-wit> *grub2 that is
[06:15] <madbomber> sire//..sure :)
[06:16] <madbomber> linux is one of the only good thing left with the nt besides irc
[06:16] <Aranel> nit-wit: and make a change on fstab?
[06:16] <nit-wit> Aranel, fstab should be okay exceopt fpr the new swap I think.
[06:17] <nit-wit> *for
[06:18] <nit-wit> Aranel, you wouldn't copy paste the swap but make a new one, then in the terminal run sudo blkid to get the new uuid for the swap and put it in fstab
[06:19] <Aranel> nit-wit: okay ^^ now I'm off to boot from livecd and copy it :)
[06:19] <tayler900> good luck
[06:19] <Guest89512> how can i get Higher resolution in xbuntu?
[06:20] <nit-wit> Aranel, cool I just opned my gparted and there is a right click copy so I think your on your way.)
[06:20] <nick12524> i do not know
[06:20] <nick12524> it wont boot from the hard drive :/
[06:21] <nit-wit> nick12524,  what's up
[06:22] <nick12524> i can not get my computer to boot from the hard drive
[06:22] <nick12524> just from cd
[06:22] <nick12524> and from realtek boot manager
[06:22] <nick12524> witch always finds nothing
[06:23] <Guest89512> how do I get higher resolutions?
[06:23] <nit-wit> nick12524, to make this easiest lets use the bootscript, it is a excellent tool just for this. http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/    pastebin the text file.
[06:23] <tayler900> is every thing placed in?

[07:13] <k_sze> I can't connect to the Samba share on my Natty rig from Mac OS X.
[07:13] <samsul__> is there anyone can set up bind9?
[07:13] <wasanzy_> the cp -rfn is not working,
[07:13] <k_sze> I have configured samba using gadmin-samba, by following this guide: http://www.ghacks.net/2009/12/25/configure-samba-with-gadmin-samba/
[07:13] <wasanzy_> samsul_: yes I can
[07:14] <flametai1> I had a wireless keyboard previously and it all of a sudden out of the blue stopped working with Ubuntu 10.10, but if I pressed the FN key on it it would just continuously  type iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii over and over. Until I pressed a button and then it would stop. Thinking the keyboard was the problem I bought a new one, which is a corded USB keyboard. It worked for about 2 months and now this one is working fine except it
[07:14] <flametai1> presses iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii over and over now randomly.
[07:14] <samsul__> wasanzy_ : could you tell me please..
[07:14] <flametai1> Anyone know my god damn problem?
[07:14] <TimmyT> hooooolaaaaaaaaa
[07:14] <TimmyT> hey guys
[07:15] <TimmyT> morning
[07:15] <wasanzy_> to tell you how to setup bind9? do you already have it install?
[07:15] <flametai1> About ready to throw Ubuntu out the window as much as I like it =/ It's just becoming a pain in the ass now though.
[07:15] <samsul__> i just install it..
[07:15] <MrDudle> flametai1: swearing won't help you
[07:16] <MrDudle> flametai1: Did that only happen in a certain program?
[07:16] <flametai1> MrDudle, swearing makes me feel better considering I've asked this question in here AND #linux a thousand times and no one seems to know what's going on =|
[07:16] <MrDudle> Or in all programs that allow text input?
[07:16] <MrDudle> Well, flametai1, people here do have lives.
[07:16] <flametai1> MrDudle, anything, even the OS itself.
[07:16] <MrDudle> I'm not even sure what that means.
[07:17] <MrDudle> How do you know it would produce 'i' if it wasn't in a program or something?
[07:17] <flametai1> .........selects a file/folder that has i in it
[07:17] <flametai1> searches for files with "i"
[07:17] <flametai1> etc.
[07:20] <MrDudle> flametai1: Honestly sounds like a keyboard problem.
[07:20] <flametai1> MrDudle, the keyboard is brand friking new.
[07:20] <nick1254> how to completly wipe a hard drive?
[07:20] <MrDudle> This is why I don't like wireless things.
[07:20] <yagoo> nick1254, how are you doing?
[07:21] <nick1254> still no success
[07:21] <flametai1> MrDudle, the one pressing i randomly isn't wireless. My previous one is wireless and presses i when I press FN
[07:21] <yagoo> nick1254, yikes
[07:21] <nick1254> this is a nightmare
[07:22] <MrDudle> nickhang on a second
[07:22] <MrDudle> nick1254: http://eraser.heidi.ie/
[07:23] <MrDudle> actually nick1254
[07:23] <MrDudle> http://www.dban.org/
[07:23] <nick1254> i dont have windows
[07:23] <MrDudle> that'd be more what you want
[07:23] <FloodBot1> MrDudle: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:23] <nick1254> i just tried dban and it gave me errors
[07:23] <MrDudle> nick1254: what errors?
[07:24] <nick1254> there were 3
[07:24] <nick1254> they were non fatual
[07:24] <nick1254> i think it said
[07:24] <MrDudle> wait
[07:24] <MrDudle> you tried it before i gave you the link?
[07:24] <nick1254> yes
[07:24] <MrDudle> try redownloading it
[07:25] <MrDudle> and reburning
[07:26] <yagoo> nick1254, you sure u have them on sata? (like they're not external harddrive boxes that can have usb and sata ports)
[07:26] <nick1254> no its an internal hard drive
[07:26] <nick1254> and its sata
[07:26] <nick1254> iv tried unpluging it all from the motherboard and plugging it back in 2 times
[07:26] <yagoo> nick1254, sata1/2
[07:27] <Aaron_> hey i have a question i just install compiz and i started it up, but the minimize button and the close button are no longer appear the tittle bar is gone any ideas?
[07:27] <Guest99024> test
[07:27] <nick1254> its in sata 1
[07:27] <Guest99024> good
[07:27] <yagoo> Aaron_, try using the metacity window manager..
[07:27] <nick1254> the motherboard has 6 sata slots
[07:27] <Aaron_> yagoo, how?
[07:27] <yagoo> nick1254, sata1 drive? sounds too old
[07:28] <yagoo> !metacity
[07:28] <Aaron_> if i enable metacity then, compiz dissappears
[07:28] <nick1254> oh im not sure if its 1 or 2
[07:28] <yagoo> nick1254, if they're new then they're sata2
[07:28] <nick1254> i just ment its hooked into the 1st sata slot on the motherboard
[07:28] <Aaron_> any help?
[07:29] <nick1254> the computer is probably about 3 or 4 years old
[07:29] <nick1254> and its the origonal hard drive
[07:29] <Loshki> nick1254: and what exactly are you trying to do?
[07:29] <nick1254> the bios wont alow me to place the hard drive in the boot order
[07:29] <nick1254> so i cant boot an operating system from the hard drive
[07:29] <nick1254> only off live cds
[07:29] <yagoo> Loshki, he was never able to show his harddrive on the boot-order menu with bios..though his bios shows the harddrives in the bios and powerup
[07:30] <nick1254> yes the bios recognizes that its there
[07:30] <yagoo> and.. I even helped him update his bios too
[07:30] <nick1254> but i cant place it in the boot order
[07:30]  * yagoo thinks gateway may be putting a hardware restriction
[07:31] <yagoo> nick1254, the only risk u can probably take is to use a bios not from gateway .. but that's probably too risky..
[07:31] <nick1254> yea wont that mess up the motherboard potentially?
[07:31] <nick1254> nad when vista was on the hard drive it would boot
[07:32] <nick1254> *and
[07:33] <Loshki> yagoo: thanks, I totally missed that part. On my cheap ECS mobo, I've had problems like that. As a workaround, can't you boot from somewhere else?
[07:33] <k_sze> Do nvidia graphics card still work in general?
[07:33] <demonmachine> :)
[07:34] <k_sze> I think I'm going out there to buy the cheapest one that supports DVI or HDMI output.
[07:34] <k_sze> this analog d-sub output to my LCD is killing my eyes.
[07:34] <yagoo> Loshki, nick1254
[07:35] <nick1254> yes
[07:35]  * yagoo says nick1254 has updated his bios to 1.00R
[07:35] <nick1254> and i have an ecs mobo
[07:36] <nick1254> its an ecs nvidia 680i lt
[07:36] <Loshki> k_sze: read newegg and search ebay reviews to be sure whatever you buy will run well under ubuntu...
[07:36] <yagoo> nick1254, you said u install ubuntu to one of the drives?
[07:36] <yagoo> (installed?)
[07:36] <nick1254> yes iv installed 11.4
[07:36] <nick1254> and 10.4
[07:36] <nick1254> and neither will boot
[07:37] <yagoo> on two physical drives?
[07:37] <nick1254> well both on the same drive
[07:37] <nick1254> one at a time
[07:37] <nick1254> first 11.4
[07:37] <nick1254> that wouldnt bot so i tried 10.4
[07:37] <Libear> 大家好
[07:37] <Loshki> nick1254: but you successfully previously booted vista from that drive in that slot?
[07:38] <yagoo> nick1254, do you have any "Legacy IDE->AHCI" bios option?
[07:38] <nick1254> yes
[07:38] <Libear> 在么
[07:38] <nick1254> thats what was on the machine when i got it
[07:38] <k_sze> !chinese
[07:38] <nick1254> and im not sure
[07:38] <nick1254> theres so many bios options and a lot of it is foriegn to me
[07:38] <nick1254> witch really doesnt help
[07:41] <Rouse> what is the command for rebooting ?
[07:41] <nick1254> im calling it quits for the night
[07:41] <nick1254> im sick of working on this for now haha
[07:41] <nick1254> thanks though for all the help
[07:42] <nick1254> maybe il figure it out eventually
[07:42] <yagoo> Rouse, reboot
[07:43] <Rouse> command not found
[07:43] <rkhshm> are there any perl modules for capturing subnet activity
[07:43] <yagoo> Rouse, shutdown -r
[07:43] <yagoo> or do ctl-alt-del in console
[07:43] <yagoo> :p
[07:44] <rkhshm> i'm planning to write a script to get all IPs within the subnet and procure its activity
[07:44] <yagoo> rkhshm, LOL
[07:44] <rkhshm> yagoo: why?
[07:45] <yagoo> rkhshm, you need an ethercap device
[07:45] <Rouse> done
[07:45] <yagoo> if this is at the router then it's possible (using an attachment to a switch)
[07:45] <yagoo> Rouse, mind me saying rebooting doesnt always fix things in linux
[07:46] <yagoo> rkhshm, i'm sure there's more than half a good dozen socket libraries for perl
[07:47] <yagoo> rkhshm, i'm not too sure how well "promiscuous" modes can be set in perl..
[07:48] <aum> is there any firefox and cookie related room
[07:50] <YankDownUnder> aum, Have you tried #mozilla ...?
[07:50] <YankDownUnder> aum, ...or #firefox ??
[07:51] <aum> ok thank you
[07:54] <LostyJai> hey guys...
[07:54] <LostyJai> anyone good with grub
[07:54] <Queeb> hi
[07:55] <LostyJai> for some reason my ubuntu boots up in GRUB
[07:55] <LostyJai> "GNU GRUB version 1.98-1ubuntu12" to be exact
[07:55] <LostyJai> how do i tell it to boot?
[07:56] <jiltdil> want to use the original unix os any one have the link to download iso?
[07:56] <yagoo> LostyJai, ?
[07:56] <YankDownUnder> LostyJai, Um...what exactly do you mean? "Boots up in GRUB" is not really very illustrative...
[07:56] <aum> i have edited cookies.sqlite manually but my browser is not showing the changes is there any other file to edit
[07:56] <yagoo> you're trying to update grubstage1/2 and mbr for grub2 but grub1 is loaded up instead?
[07:56] <LostyJai> um...
[07:57] <yagoo> ,/for/to/ grub2
[07:57] <YankDownUnder> aum, Have you asked this question in #firefox?
[07:57] <LostyJai> i start up my server
[07:57] <LostyJai> and it just goes into grub command line
[07:57] <aum> yes but nobody is replying
[07:57] <YankDownUnder> LostyJai, Right - that explains.
[07:57] <yagoo> LostyJai, did u do update-grub2 ?
[07:57] <LostyJai> do you want a screenshot?
[07:57] <YankDownUnder> LostyJai, Have you booted the server with a live CD and then try to re-install grub?
[07:57] <LostyJai> i don't know how i can better explain it
[07:57] <LostyJai> yagoo: no
[07:58] <yagoo> u didnt generate a grub.cfg file
[07:58] <LostyJai> it booted up fine before
[07:58] <LostyJai> but not anymore
[07:58] <YankDownUnder> LostyJai, Here's what I picture: You turn on the machine. It goes through the post, then just sits at the GRUB menu, right?
[07:58] <LostyJai> yes
[07:58] <LostyJai> well it's not really a menu
[07:58] <LostyJai> it's more...... GRUB terminal
[07:59] <truepurple> Is there a special reason to mount a independent third partition into home rather then into its own spot?
[07:59] <YankDownUnder> LostyJai, Yes yes yes, I know...been there done that. What you want to do is to boot with a liveCD, then "chroot" to the root filesystem, mounting everything you need to mount, then re-install grub.
[07:59] <yagoo> LostyJai, easy solution.. just use ubuntuinstallcd and choose repair grub install
[07:59] <LostyJai> how do i get it to boot off hd(0,1) ?
[07:59] <LostyJai> mmmmm
[07:59] <LostyJai> ok
[08:00] <LostyJai> advanced options -> rescue mode?
[08:00] <yagoo> i believe so
[08:00] <jvgeli> need help, im installing kernel 3 on natty,but when i get to the headers it says dependency not satisfied but the dependency its referring to is itself
[08:00] <LostyJai> well nothing else to select
[08:00] <yagoo> !grub
[08:00] <LostyJai> here goes
[08:02] <yagoo> LostyJai, there's also this.. but i never used it
[08:02] <yagoo> LostyJai, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[08:02] <LostyJai> thanks
[08:04] <truepurple> Is there a special reason to mount a independent third partition into home rather then into its own spot?
[08:05] <yagoo> truepurple, well to create shares u need to have it more public for 1+ users
[08:05] <yagoo> truepurple, i don't know what you mean "own spot".. I'm guessing you mean /media /mnt standard locations
[08:06] <truepurple> Sure on the second thing you said
[08:06] <truepurple> But the first, "create shares"?
[08:07] <yagoo> truepurple, i was guessing what you were meaning about user's own preference-- making a user's own sharing under his home directory
[08:07] <al__> whats the flags to the cp command to copy everything unless it is a *avi AND over say 5G in size?
[08:07] <jvgeli> need help, im installing kernel 3 on natty,but when i get to the headers it says dependency not satisfied but the dependency its referring to is itself
[08:08] <yagoo> truepurple, bottom line is security.. how much you want a user to allow him to make his own mountpoints
[08:08] <yagoo> jvgeli, that sounds like bleeding edge.. kernel v 3 already?
[08:08] <jvgeli> yagoo: yeah.
[08:09] <yagoo> they jumped .6 numbers.. looks like about a week ago..
[08:09] <jvgeli> yagoo: anyway i got it to install forcibly. restarting now to try it on Natty.
[08:09] <truepurple> yagoo: I never said anything about "users own preference"
[08:09] <yagoo> jvgeli, what does it have.., usb3 ?
[08:10] <truepurple> yagoo: I am the only person that uses this PC
[08:10] <yagoo> jvgeli, /home implies user's own
[08:10] <jvgeli> yagoo: not sure. but Im using one of the fusion APU from AMD and support has recently been added to the latest kernel.
[08:10] <yagoo> jvgeli, fusefilesystems overcome the burdence of old system filesystem maintenance.. (gnomevfs)
[08:11] <jen> guess who's a happy camper now? Thanks Ken!
[08:13] <jen> ^_^
[08:13] <KM0201> i take it everything worked?
[08:14] <jvgeli> yagoo: im on Kernel 3.0.0-0300rc4-generic now. everything is ffffassssttt! ATI radeon cafd works great out of the box. great upgrade!
[08:14] <jen> yes!!! :DDDDDDDD
[08:14] <yagoo> jvgeli, i imagine it is especially with that scheduler patch pulled in after 2.6.36
[08:14] <KM0201> well hallelujah.
[08:14] <KM0201> lol
[08:15] <root_> hey I got some problems with vlc. everytime when I try to run it i get an error message
[08:15] <jen> now...to install flash stuff

[08:16] <jen> oh ok I shall check whirled
[08:17] <truepurple> yagoo:
[08:17] <angawar> Hi, I was wondering if somebody could help me with my screen setup?

[08:35] <llutz> !enter| corestorm:

[08:35] <corestorm> No problem.
[08:36] <YankDownUnder> shadowpit, Have you tried #ubuntu-server yet?
[08:36] <edreza> we dont have internet waaaaaaaaaa
[08:36] <corestorm> The following packages block the update: arping
[08:36] <shadowpit> yankdownUnder, nop, I'll give it a try. Thanks. ;-)
[08:36] <YankDownUnder> edreza, Um...are you communicating with us via the spirit world?
[08:36] <corestorm> So it's not letting me download network manager
[08:38] <babu> is there any way to convert from doc/odt to pdf
[08:38] <corestorm> any ideas guys ?
[08:38] <YankDownUnder> babu, Print to PDF.
[08:38] <cad> corestorm, sudo apt-get update
[08:39] <corestorm> alright cad
[08:39] <llutz> babu: libreoffice/openoffice have a pdf-export function
[08:39] <Lasers> angawar: Just got your message.
[08:39] <Lasers> angawar: Check Additional Drivers. Make sure it's enabled. Restart. Go to Nvidia-Settings (under System/Preferences) and set it up from there.
[08:39] <YankDownUnder> "Print to file" is a general option on ANY linux based system - you can choose PS or PDF as the output.
[08:39] <babu> how to upgrade openoffice only
[08:40] <cad> corestorm, just remove "arping"
[08:40] <llutz> YankDownUnder: right, but you'll first have to use an app being able to read(open) doc/odt
[08:40] <corestorm> cad
[08:40] <shen> how remove kde-desktop
[08:41] <baskak> i have an ati radeon 9200, and no unity. "unity_support_test -p" gives the following: http://paste.ubuntu.com/647158/, however the card IS capable of gl 1.4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radeon). it's running on default driver, there are no additional drivers available, and to my knowledge currently only the  included drivers support radeon 9200 (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1540387)
[08:41] <babu> how to upgrade openoffice only
[08:41] <YankDownUnder> llutz, Um...most linux installations come with SOMETHING...like OO or LO or SO or similar...
[08:41] <corestorm> this is going to sound really stupid, i'm new to linux. my friend installed it on my computer for me. how exactly do i remove arping
[08:42] <astraljava> babu: What do you mean upgrade openoffice only? Why do you need to upgrade it in the first place? Please be more specific with your questions, it's really hard to guess what you're after.
[08:42] <shen> apt-get --purge remove
[08:42] <cad> in terminal : sudo apt-get remove {package-name}     / or purge
[08:42] <Benkinooby> hi, i am looking for a pdf view that can show annotations... suggestions? i tried evince, gv, xpdf.. with out luck... is ther a package to be installed for annotation supprt?
[08:42] <babu> astraljava,  i want to update open office to the newer version
[08:42] <shen> yes
[08:42] <bluecatss> hi alll
[08:42] <viii> hey, anyone have troubles with or running a lenovo y470?
[08:43] <bluecatss> nice to meat you
[08:43] <astraljava> babu: From what version? Which ubuntu release are you using? There are possibilities, but I'm really not sure why you want to do that in the first place.
[08:43] <corestorm> Okay thanks
[08:44] <corestorm> i'll try this again i really appreciate your help on this.
[08:44] <janedoe> hey, I have been thinking about about installing neorouter, however ubuntu gives me a notification about it being my risk installing it and that it could cause damage.. could anyone recommend doing it anyway?
[08:44] <babu> astraljava, i'm using ubuntu 10.10... i'm currently using v3.2
[08:44] <bluecatss> nice to meat you babu
[08:44] <dyd> i have a tar file, i want the files to be extracted in /, how do i run the command?
[08:45] <llutz> dyd tar -C
[08:45] <soreau> dyd: / isnt a good place to store files for one
[08:45] <dyd> the files are of flash player
[08:46] <soreau> ! flash
[08:46] <dyd> if i extract them with tar xvf install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz
[08:46] <dyd> it creates a folder
[08:46] <astraljava> babu: Ahh... then, I'm afraid, it's only possible by compiling from sources. However, there's a LibreOffice PPA on launchpad, if you really need that. Just out of curiosity, is this related to printing to PDF, or another matter?
[08:46] <tomodachi> dyd: why not install flash from aptitude?
[08:46] <dyd> soreau: thanks
[08:47] <astraljava> babu: I just won't recommend the usage of PPAs. They're completely out of support (excluding whatever the PPA maintainer _might_ give).
[08:47] <dyd> tomodachi: dunno, i was on website and it made me download the package
[08:47] <janedoe> ok, since I am being ignored, is there any chance that I can be read anyway and responded to?
[08:48] <babu> astraljava, i just want to update the openoffice to newer version....it's not relating to pdf
[08:48] <tomodachi> dyd:  if you are using ubuntu and want flash,  there is a better way!
[08:49] <tomodachi> dyd: http://www.liberiangeek.net/2011/03/install-adobe-flash-player-ubuntu-11-04-natty-narwhal/
[08:49] <tomodachi> this should work
[08:49] <dyd> tomodachi: using apt-get? next time i'll use that :D
[08:49] <jacob_> for ubuntu 10.10
[08:49] <tomodachi> dyd:  do it now instead of next time!
[08:49] <dyd> tomodachi: oh yea... i prefer command line :))
[08:49] <astraljava> babu: Right. Well, can't help with that, outside of giving the line: "Compile from sources". Haven't done it myself, so cannot support the operation. Good luck!
[08:49] <Guest62130> can we get google desktop for ubuntu 10.10
[08:49] <dyd> tomodachi: i already installed it, it's working!
[08:49] <tomodachi> ok
[08:49] <babu> i found a office suite named libreoffice in ubuntu 11.04....wat's the difference bn it and open office..has canonical switched ..or oracle renamed it
[08:50] <dyd> babu: i think it was just renamed
[08:50] <Lasers> babu: We're going with LibreOffice. We already have it in 11.04 -- It's really same with OpenOffice except branding name and few little things.
[08:50] <viii> babu, open source forked the project since oracle has rights to openoffice
[08:50] <janedoe> alright, I c, thanks for nthn
[08:50] <astraljava> babu: LibreOffice is a port of OpenOffice, supported by a foundation. Separate from OpenOffice, though some degree of cooperation might be expected. Oracle owns OpenOffice nowadays.
[08:51] <Lasers> babu: Keeping it free, bro. :)
[08:52] <Benkinooby> hi, i am looking for a pdf view that can show annotations... suggestions? i tried evince, gv, xpdf.. with out luck... is ther a package to be installed for annotation supprt?
[08:53] <Noor_egy> hello , i resored my linux grab after i installed windows and now there is screen that show me the choices to choose from windows and linux but when i try to log to windows it gives me invaled signature
[08:54] <janedoe>  hey, I have been thinking about about installing neorouter, however ubuntu gives me a notification about it being my risk installing it and that it could cause damage.. could anyone recommend doing it anyway?
[08:55] <szal> Noor_egy: you what your linux what?
[08:55] <Lasers> grub.
[08:55] <tomodachi> janedoe: what do you want? vpn?
[08:55] <janedoe> yes
[08:55] <tomodachi> between what?
[08:56] <szal> Noor_egy: you what your linux grub?
[08:56] <tomodachi> 2 computers? 2 sites?
[08:56] <Noor_egy> i was have ubuntu and installed windows rhen i tried to restore the linux grab to show ubuntu
[08:56] <janedoe> and the client as well
[08:56] <janedoe> one computer
[08:56] <Kus> Hello
[08:56] <tomodachi> janedoe: so its between two computers? what will you be running betweem those two computers?
[08:56] <babu> when updating open office,is installing from sources is the nly way to do...it just wasts my bandwith...
[08:56] <Noor_egy> now i have ubuntu and windows shown but when i try to login to windows it gives invalid signature
[08:57] <Kus> i have forgoten my encryted home passphrase
[08:57] <Kus> is there a way i can find it? i have loged in and it is auto encrypted, but need the passphrase for mountig it else where
[08:57] <Kus> can somebody help me?
[08:57] <janedoe> tomodachi: it is more of the fact that I wanna have access to my computer from another computer, though I read that I ned the vpn-server first.. or sth.. I am not good at thsi yet..
[08:58] <janedoe> *need
[08:58] <janedoe> *this
[08:58] <Lasers> !encrypt | Kus
[08:58] <tomodachi> janedoe: i use openvpn for my vpn connections. Its quite simple to set up and will give you what you want
[08:58] <tomodachi> janedoe: but if you only  want filesharing access and maybe remote controll you dont really need vpn. You can use ssh port forwarding. Thats why im asking for specifics.
[08:58] <astraljava> Kus: Does this help? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory#Recovering Your Mount Passphrase
[08:59] <Lasers> Kus: If you didn't write it down.... This is what you wanted, right?  [!#$#$Encrypted@#$##]
[08:59] <szal> babu: that depends on where you got OOo from in the first place
[08:59] <janedoe> tomodachi: oh really, that sounds cool.. I will try that one.. is it part of the apps on the software center or do I have to download it from the homepage?
[08:59] <tomodachi> both exists in software center
[09:00] <tomodachi> basically you can redirect ports through ssh  so they become enctrypted through the ssh tunnel
[09:00] <babu> szal, it's already pre-installed in my ubuntu 10.10
[09:00] <Kus> Lasers, so it isn't saved on the disk?
[09:00] <soulis77-SE> I can't get the sun Java install to work on Lucid. I have added the repository but still no go. Is there another way?
[09:00] <tomodachi> janedoe: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/PortForwarding
[09:00] <janedoe> tomodachi: kk, well I just wanna have administrative access and do whatever I wanna do ;)
[09:01] <Lasers> kusznir__: When you firstly set it up, I'm very confident there was a shortcut or dialog that prompt -- It tell you to write down the passphrase.
[09:01] <Lasers> Kus: ^^
[09:01] <janedoe> tomodachi: well, thx so far..
[09:01] <Lasers> Kus: It's on the disk. Where else would it go? :)
[09:02] <astraljava> Kus: Did the link not help?
[09:02] <Noor_egy> i was have ubuntu and windowes and 2 days ago i renstalled windows so i was had to restore grab to show the ybuntu to log to i did restore it and now when i open my pc it show window to choose between ubuntu and windows but when i try to login to windows it gives me error invalid signature and windows dont work
[09:03] <vlt> Noor_egy: Sounds like a topic for #windows
[09:03] <Noor_egy> hmm
[09:03] <Noor_egy> its related to linux grab
[09:03] <Noor_egy> grub
[09:03] <szal> babu: the packaged version will likely stay the same throughout the life of 10.10..  if you want something newer, grab the native-packed binaries from openoffice.org or go for LibreOffice (either by PPA or their native-packed version -- please note that LO 3.4.1 is not yet considered stable for mission-critical use)
[09:04] <szal> babu: iow, no need to build from source
[09:04] <wh1zz0> Sup guys
[09:05] <szal> Noor_egy: define 'invalid signature
[09:06] <szal> Noor_egy: iow, EXACT error message please
[09:06] <babu> szal, i'm afraid my qn is not reached to you....if i download native binaries from OO site, i have to download large size of package...instead if there is any patch for update, i can apply the patch to the existing version n update it...
[09:06] <szal> babu: no, there isn't
[09:06] <babu> szal, the patch size will be far less than original binary
[09:07] <szal> babu: afaik, *buntu doesn't have patches anyway
[09:07] <szal> babu: if you want something that supports delta packages, go for openSUSE or Fedora
[09:08] <Noor_egy1> szal thats the error message Invalid Signature
[09:08] <Noor_egy1> szal thats the error message Invalid Signature
[09:08] <babu> szal, if i downloaded for every release,its obviously waste my time and bandwith and space
[09:09] <szal> Noor_egy1: no need to repeat yourself..  and that message comes exactly where?
[09:09] <FxIII> i know that xrandr let you to rotate the screen, is there a way to rotate the touchpad axis accordingly
[09:09] <FxIII> ?
[09:10] <Noor_egy1> szal aftel i choose to go to windows it dont log me to windows and gives me this error
[09:11] <babu> wat's the diff bn apt-get and aptitude...both are interface to package manager..which should to use
[09:11] <szal> Noor_egy1: please mind your words..  if it's on Windows _login_, i.e., after starting up Windows, it's not a *buntu or Grub problem -> ##windows then
[09:11] <Benkinooby> someone know a pdf viewer that can show annotations?
[09:12] <lilyfan9000> Benkinooby: The official Adobe one can
[09:12] <lilyfan9000> Benkinooby: http://get.adobe.com/uk/reader/
[09:12] <dc5ala> Noor_egy1, from grub menu? You can try edit at the boot menu, press E to go into edit mode, then press E again on the line that says root (hd....
[09:12] <Noor_egy1> szal - > windows dont start  its apear before windows start
[09:12] <Benkinooby> babu, aptitude is based on apt-get... but it has some nice features, that makes it more intelligent
[09:12] <OerHeks> babu aptitude is removed from 11.04 so i suggest apt-get
[09:12] <szal> !grub | Noor_egy1 - did you follow this?
[09:12] <Benkinooby> babu, especially when it comes to cleaning up orhaned packages and resolving dependency problems
[09:13] <Noor_egy1> yes szal
[09:13] <Benkinooby> babu, to me, aptitude is superior to apt-get
[09:13] <Noor_egy1> i did
[09:13] <szal> lilyfan9000: no need to install from Adobe's website
[09:14] <babu> when we uploading a file in web, i read that it is first storing in tmp folder and after it is transferred...why is that
[09:14] <dc5ala> Noor_egy1, and delete the part after (hd, then press TAB and grub shows you available partitions, try to find the one you need and complete the line, e.g. (hd0,0) and press enter, then you can press B to boot
[09:15] <szal> Noor_egy1: iirc, the correct OS setup in Grub essentially boils down to 'sudo os-prober && sudo update-grub'
[09:15] <Noor_egy1> dc5ala:  plz again
[09:15] <Benkinooby> lilyfan9000, thank you... but apart from the adobe -i am not a fan of it... sorry should have mentioned before... it can't be that there is no open source pdf viewer with annotation support :(
[09:17] <pablii> Hello
[09:17] <Algorith> just joined conversation. What ya talking about? Seem to recall okular supporting annotations
[09:17] <babu> when we uploading a file in web, i read that it is first storing in tmp folder and after it is transferred...why is that
[09:17] <pablii> I can't mount any dvd
[09:18] <pablii> mount : the special device /dev/scd0 not exist
[09:18] <aussie114> hello, I have been trying to get my headset working in ubuntu for some time, following guides I have read result in my OS locking up, would it be because I have a PCI sound card installed?
[09:18] <pablii> any help? i want to burn it with some files
[09:19] <pablii> cant mount cdrom0
[09:19] <soulis77-SE> Hi, How do I excecute a bin file from ssh terminal?
[09:19] <szal> !enter | pablii
[09:20] <szal> soulis77-SE: the file you downloaded most likely comes w/ instructions, either in the package or on the site you downloaded it from
[09:21] <szal> soulis77-SE: other than that, what are you trying to run?
[09:21] <soulis77-SE> sun-java
[09:21] <iceroot> soulis77-SE: chmod +x file.bin   ./file.bin
[09:21] <szal> soulis77-SE: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[09:22] <soulis77-SE> szal: don't work even if i add archive... to the source file.
[09:22] <szal> soulis77-SE: what 'don't work'?
[09:22] <soulis77-SE> sudo apt-apt get
[09:23] <soulis77-SE> szal: can't find package even after adding the archive.cannon to the source file.
[09:23] <szal> soulis77-SE: there's no such thing as 'apt-apt get'
[09:23] <soulis77-SE> szal No it was a typo
[09:23] <szal> !info sun-java6-jre
[09:24] <soulis77-SE> It is Lucid
[09:24] <szal> !java | soulis77-SE
[09:25] <soulis77-SE> When running sudo apt-get update: Doesn't it update core ?
[09:26] <lilyfan9000> soulis77-SE: What do you mean by update core? apt-get update just updates the package lists
[09:26] <dc5ala> soulis77-SE, what you mean with core? It updates package informations
[09:27] <soulis77-SE> Ok, I was afraid of doing the update since I have had problems twice with update or upgrade gives problem with my VPS and Parallels installation.
[09:28] <Cr4z33> Hi I am trying to run Ubuntu Server 10.04.2 64 bit from a USB pendrive (no HDD installed), but when I power on the computer I get 'Grub Error - No such device blablabla'
[09:28] <baskak> i have an ati radeon 9200, and no unity. "unity_support_test -p" gives the following: http://paste.ubuntu.com/647158/, however the card IS capable of gl 1.4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radeon). it's running on default driver, there are no additional drivers available, and to my knowledge currently only the  included drivers support radeon 9200 (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1540387)
[09:29] <fosa_> i have a dual boot install of ubuntu and xp
[09:29] <fosa_> xp is giving me problems with BSOD so i'm in ubuntu
[09:30] <fosa_> when i try to access the 183GB Media folder listed in the ubuntu file browser, it says i don't have permission to mount it
[09:30] <fosa_> is it possibly because i added a user account in XP, and put a passwords on them?
[09:32] <Slart> fosa_: I'm not sure if ubuntu respects user permissions you've set in XP... I doubt it
[09:32] <Slart> fosa_: this media folder.. is it a separate drive/partition?
[09:32] <fosa_> i guess so
[09:33] <Slart> fosa_: and you're on a fresh install of ubuntu 11.04?
[09:33] <bllt> hey, I have quick question. I downloaded some small rtos and in the sources directory I have patches directory with kernel patches named kernel-patch-2.4.29 , kernel-patch-2.6.9 ...   for this OS I need to download clean kernel, and here is my question (about numbers in those kernel patches) - does this mean that I need to download kernel 2.4.29 or 2.6.9 (like those numbers)? or should it work with latest stable kernel?
[09:33] <llutz> !ntfs | fosa_
[09:33] <fosa_> i'm on 8.10 i think
[09:34] <corestorm> I'm having serious issues setting up a VPN connection
[09:34] <Slart> fosa_: oh.. then you probably need to do what ubottu told you about above.. it might be easier to reinstall ubuntu (the latest version)
[09:34] <corestorm> can some one give me a link to a site with some help ?
[09:35] <Lasers> !vpn | corestorm
[09:35] <fosa_> huh.. okay thanks ^^
[09:35] <corestorm> What version of ubuntu is backtrack 5 based off of ?
[09:35] <corestorm> Does anyone know
[09:35] <llutz> corestorm: ask in #backtrack-linux
[09:35] <bazhang> corestorm, you're using bt?
[09:36] <corestorm> Yeah
[09:36] <Slart> fosa_: ntfs support has developed a lot in the later years.. it seems for every version of ubuntu there were new work-arounds and packages to install.. but starting from 10.* it has "just worked" for me
[09:36] <corestorm> * Cannot join #backtrack-linux (You are banned).
[09:36] <bazhang> corestorm, thats not supported here, check their channel
[09:36] <corestorm> Not even sure why i'm banned
[09:36] <corestorm> ahh i know why
[09:36] <corestorm> brb
[09:36] <fosa_> i never had a problem just opening the partition before
[09:36] <bazhang> corestorm, its the root@ ident
[09:36] <corestorm> yeah i know
[09:37] <llutz> stupid, since default user is root when using backtrack...
[09:40] <OerHeks> abn
[09:40] <FxIII> any idea on how to rotate the touchpad axis when rotate the output screen?
[09:40] <Dippie> Aware that it is very off topic, but is there anyone here that by chance has good knowledge about hardware?
[09:41] <Slart> Dippie: you might as well ask if anyone knows electronic stuff.. that's such a wiiiiidde question..
[09:42] <tenX> and being good aint easy to measure as well
[09:42] <Slart> Dippie: why not narrow it down to .. computer parts? graphics cards? general computer building? recent models of amd cpus?
[09:42] <Slart> Dippie: you might want to try in ##hardware as well..
[09:43] <tenX> just ask your question i wanna hear it now :)
[09:43] <basncy> /
[09:44] <Dippie> Sorry, to be specific i'm looking to build a new computer
[09:45]  * Slart puts away his lexicon about early 20th century wrenches... *disappointed*
[09:45] <Dippie> Trying to find some help picking the right parts and such :)
[09:45] <Dippie> hehe
[09:46] <Dippie> Anyway, thanks for pointing me to #hardware, i somehow failed to find it.
[09:47] <Slart> you're welcome
[09:47] <CloudAche84> Hi, anyone got any experience of preseeding Ubuntu server installs on diskless hosts to iSCSI targets?
[09:48] <tenX> Dippie: query
[09:52] <btrfs> hi
[09:52] <corestorm> Well
[09:52] <corestorm> #backtrack-linux is full of ignorant people.
[09:52] <corestorm> elitest morons =\
[09:53] <Slart> corestorm: ah.. you got the full linux experience =)
[09:53] <iceroot> !ot
[09:53] <tomodachi> corestorm: i cant really since i've never been there. But just because they break the ubuntu code of conduct doesent mean you should!
[09:53] <corestorm> lol
[09:54] <corestorm> !vpn
[09:54] <llutz> corestorm: backtrack is a pentesting distro which needs some knowledge, not made for daily business. if you keep using it, #backtrack-linux IS the place to ask (even if you dislike those guys)
[09:54] <corestorm> They wont help me
[09:54] <corestorm> they said "it's not a back track issue"
[09:54] <llutz> we also won't
[09:54] <corestorm> what ever the hell that means.
[09:54] <corestorm> So
[09:54] <iceroot> corestorm: this os ubuntu-support
[09:54] <corestorm> There's no way for people to learn how to set up a VPN on linux
[09:55] <corestorm> i'm fucked basicly ?
[09:55] <corestorm> i'm fucked basically ?
[09:55] <iceroot> corestorm: we dont support backtrack or other distris, so this is not the correct channel
[09:55] <iceroot> corestorm: watch your language
[09:55] <corestorm> Sorry ice.
[09:55] <trinity9000> corestorm: There are lots of VPN tutorials if you search google
[09:55] <corestorm> I have.
[09:55] <trinity9000> corestorm: It's not a trivial thing though
[09:55] <tomodachi> corestorm: check out openvpn.org they have a very simple tutorial
[09:55] <tenX> corestorm: yeah
[09:55] <corestorm> Alright thanks allot tom
[09:56] <tenX> i can really recommend openvpn as well
[09:56] <corestorm> Just sucks because i paid $300 for this thing.
[09:56] <corestorm> and i can't use it
[09:56] <corestorm> for PPTP/L2TP/SSTP
[09:56] <tenX> i've run some flavours but its the easiest to setup
[09:56] <tenX> corestorm: pptp, no
[09:56] <ali_> hello!
[09:57] <tenX> L2TP/IPSEC :D as a first try, NO
[09:57] <corestorm> To late lol
[09:57] <corestorm> i've already paid for it
[09:57] <corestorm> should i switch it out to open ?
[09:57] <ali_> sorry, i installed xfce and now i wanna have remote desktop to it what should i do?
[09:57] <tenX> corestorm: it is very complex
[09:57] <tenX> corestorm: paid? so you dont have to set it up?
[09:57] <corestorm> strong-vpn.com
[09:57] <corestorm> or what ever
[09:58] <corestorm> I bought a 1 year client plan with them
[09:58] <corestorm> for PPTP/L2TP/SSTP
[09:58] <llutz> corestorm: do you have any UBUNTU support related thing to ask? if not, please respect the rules and stop it here
[09:58] <tenX> corestorm: well client setup is easy
[09:58] <corestorm> Yes, where can I download a dist of ubuntu ?
[09:58] <iceroot> !download | corestorm
[09:58] <corestorm> !downloads
[09:59] <corestorm> thanks.
[09:59] <ali_> how can i have remote desktop from my xfce desktop?
[09:59] <tomodachi> corestorm: openvpn can be used for any distribution , and for windows
[09:59] <tenX> ali_: well call it via console
[09:59] <tenX> ali_: its called rdesktop
[10:00] <tenX> rdesktop -h will show you the options
[10:00] <ali_> what do you mean?
[10:00] <ali_> i wanna remote desktop from my home to my server
[10:01] <szal> ali_: does the server have a GUI?
[10:01] <ali_> yeah
[10:01] <corestorm> ~# apt-get install openvpn
[10:01] <corestorm> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[10:01] <corestorm> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[10:01] <corestorm> How do i get around this ?
[10:01] <tenX> ali_: i meeean... i meant... to quit
[10:02] <ali_> ???
[10:02] <CloudAche84> did you sudo?
[10:02] <ali_> i just have ssh access
[10:02] <szal> corestorm: close any other pkg management applications that may be running
[10:03] <ali_> and that is root access
[10:03] <szal> corestorm: and yes, use sudo
[10:03] <janhaj> hello.. If i do dd if=/dev/sda3 of=/dev/sdb1.img , will it remove all files in sdb1 or not?
[10:04] <szal> janhaj: that won't likely work, because /dev/sdb1.img is most probably not a valid block device, let alone mount point
[10:04] <ali_> szal: yes it support and i installed xfce envirment and i wanna have remote desktop
[10:04] <corestorm> package manager says "waiting for package manager lock"
[10:04] <corestorm> what ever that means ?
[10:05] <CloudAche84>  orestorm: close everything and start again
[10:05] <|OLLIE|> means you have a package manager open already.
[10:05] <janhaj> szal: so dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/media/data/backup.img ? (mountpoint is /media/data)
[10:05] <corestorm> did that
[10:05] <corestorm> keeps giving me the same errors
[10:05] <corestorm> it segfaulted then I opened it
[10:05] <CloudAche84> are you in gui or at terminal?
[10:06] <corestorm> gui wont work
[10:06] <szal> janhaj: that looks more reasonable
[10:06] <corestorm> nore will apt-get
[10:06] <CloudAche84> but you have closed the gui?
[10:06] <corestorm> yeah
[10:06] <babu> which is the better theme .. i want to change my current theme ambiance..
[10:07] <CloudAche84> what does ls /var/lib/dpkg/lock show?
[10:07] <Byob> hey
[10:07] <janhaj> szal: and what the other files in /media/data? Will it remains there?
[10:08] <corestorm> just says /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[10:08] <|OLLIE|> if you're certain that you have closed -all- instances of package managers (gui, and cli) then just run: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[10:08] <|OLLIE|> and then try the apt-get again
[10:08] <corestorm> alright
[10:08] <|OLLIE|> im pretty sure that dpkg will clear the lock.
[10:08] <corestorm> sudo dpkg --configure -a
[10:08] <corestorm> dpkg: status database area is locked by another process
[10:09] <|OLLIE|> haha dammit
[10:09] <barberan> I've got 11.04. Everything is fine. I can not invent something interesting. Boring day. What should I think of ?
[10:09] <corestorm> lol
[10:09] <babu> i added some ppa's earlier...how do i know waht are the ppa's i added..n to remove them
[10:11] <CloudAche84> try this instead cat /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[10:11] <josvuk> Hello, How to decode aprs data
[10:11] <janhaj> If I do dd if=/dev/sda3 of=/media/data/backup.img (/media/data is mountpoint), will it remove other files in /media/data or not? Thanks
[10:12] <szal> janhaj: why should it?
[10:12] <Lasers> janhaj: You shouldn't be on the active system if you're backing up your active system,
[10:13] <corestorm> Cloud
[10:13] <corestorm> shows nothing when i cat it
[10:13] <corestorm> nothing in the file
[10:13] <wh1zz0> Hmm, I still can't find a replacement for DW, Aptana is cool but not good enough.. Anyone?
[10:13] <janhaj> szal: I don't know, so I rather ask..
[10:13] <wh1zz0> Because of speed I'd love to have something with a not just code view but design view
[10:13] <janhaj> Lasers: I know, I have two installation of Linux.. :)
[10:14] <marsfligth> how set permission 777 to all sudirs and file. i trier with 'chmod -R' but didn't worked for me
[10:14] <wh1zz0> Anyone?
[10:14] <marsfligth> sorry *tried*
[10:15] <trinity9000> Are you the owner of the files? You might need to use chown first
[10:15] <CloudAche84> try sudo -i
[10:15] <CloudAche84> will drop you to root
[10:15] <CloudAche84> then cat again
[10:15] <CloudAche84> and try apt-install again
[10:15] <trinity9000> wh1zz0: I like NetBeans, but it doesn't have a design view (other than previewing bits of CSS)
[10:16] <SwedeMike> marsfligth: "didn't work" is not a helpful description of what went wrong. What really happened?
[10:16] <marsfligth> no, was 'root', i did become 'root' and i tried to change, but only the top folder take the correct permisiion
[10:16] <corestorm> cat /var/lib/dkpg/lock
[10:16] <corestorm> cat: /var/lib/dkpg/lock: No such file or directory
[10:16] <corestorm> now
[10:17] <SwedeMike> marsfligth: "chmod -R 777 ." is the command you used?
[10:17] <corestorm> # apt-get install openvpn
[10:17] <corestorm> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[10:17] <corestorm> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[10:17] <corestorm> argh
[10:17] <Lasers> corestorm: sudo
[10:18] <marsfligth> SwedeMike: yes, i also tried with others options
[10:18] <Lasers> Oh you're on ...root.
[10:18] <|OLLIE|> he's running as root, hence the #
[10:18] <corestorm> same errors
[10:18] <|OLLIE|> corestorm: check to see if there is any hidden/defunct processes running.
[10:18] <|OLLIE|> ps ax|grep -e "synaptic\|apt-get\|aptitude"|grep -v grep
[10:18] <|OLLIE|> something like that should show if any of them 3 are running
[10:19] <|OLLIE|> if nothing is returned, then nothing is running
[10:19] <marsfligth> sorry SwedeMike, i saw just now a diff. i used '"chmod -R 0777 /path/'
[10:20] <corestorm> gksudo might work
[10:20] <|OLLIE|> if something is returned, then kill {pid} it. (the pid being the first number on the line it returned)
[10:20] <corestorm> and nothing returned
[10:20] <corestorm> i already ran ps -aux
[10:20] <SwedeMike> marsfligth: try /path, not /path/, shouldn't matter, but that should work anyway.
[10:20] <corestorm> and went through every pid
[10:20] <|OLLIE|> strange. i guess you will just need to remove the lock manually.
[10:21] <|OLLIE|> i've never tried it before, but it -should- be as simple as rm'ing the lock file.. but dont quote me on that, never tried it
[10:21] <marsfligth> SwedeMike: ok, i try
[10:21] <corestorm> i'll check it out
[10:21] <corestorm> worst care
[10:21] <corestorm> case
[10:21] <corestorm> I gotta reinstall
[10:21] <corestorm> or something lol
[10:21] <|OLLIE|> lol no, thats overkill..
[10:22] <corestorm> damn
[10:23] <|OLLIE|> oh, idea.. use lsof to see what has the lock file open.
[10:23] <wh1zz0> trinity9000: Hmm thanks

[10:25] <Deesl> hello
[10:26] <Deesl> In my network consisting of a few Gentoo and Ubuntu hosts, bit.ly does not open only on Ubuntu boxes
[10:26] <Deesl> where could I start troubleshooting
[10:27] <marsfligth> SwedeMike: always the same, doesn't work recursively, works only on top folder
[10:28] <SwedeMike> marsfligth: and doesn't give any error message?
[10:28] <wh1zz0> Whew
[10:28] <marsfligth> no at all
[10:28] <wh1zz0> :/
[10:28] <marsfligth> so strange
[10:28] <hrobjartur> same Q here as on Kubuntu
[10:28] <marsfligth> i try again with nautilus
[10:29] <hrobjartur> anybody got experience with lm-sensors and AMD Phenom II x4
[10:29] <hrobjartur> ?
[10:29] <hrobjartur> well or anybody using Phenom II x4?
[10:29] <SwedeMike> marsfligth: well, I just tried and creating a file b/b/b and doing chmod -R 777 b works just fine, all dirs and files recursively is changed to 777
[10:29] <hrobjartur> I want to figure out if my CPU temp readings are getting through ok
[10:30] <hrobjartur> here i my lm-sensors output, http://pastebin.com/3A2QCytj
[10:30] <hrobjartur> my guess would be that the 'diode' sensor is the CPU temp? is that correct?   if so how does sensors know it is a diode sensor?
[10:31] <marsfligth> SwedeMike: maybe i have a shell problem, few day a go i installed 'zsh' shell but im not using at the moment. now i tri with Kde console
[10:32] <somsip> hrobjartur: Phenom II X4 955 here. No probs
[10:34] <hrobjartur> somsip:  ok, great... you mean you dont have lm-sensors set up?
[10:35] <hrobjartur> somsip:  I followed this one   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[10:35] <hrobjartur> somsip:  just sudo apt-get install lm-sensors
[10:36] <hrobjartur> somsip:  and then the rest of that tutorial
[10:36] <thunder1212> hi
[10:36] <thunder1212> i want to search for all files that contain the firefox from command line and delete each one from command line in one go
[10:37] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  must be some find command.
[10:37] <thunder1212> i want to search for all files that contains the word "firefox" , from command line and delete each one from command line in one go
[10:38] <somsip> hrobjartur: Found `ITE IT8718F Super IO Sensors'
[10:38] <AcidRain> lol@evolution
[10:38] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, i hav tried find, it doesn't work
[10:39] <AcidRain> evolution will sarcastically taunt you for not having a subject line for a message you send. like you dont know what it is.
[10:39] <Lasers> thunder1212: "sudo updatedb && locate firefox"
[10:39] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  u want all files that conaint the text firefox... not contain firefox in its name, right?
[10:39] <Slart> thunder1212: I don't think find searches inside files.. just filenames iirc... grep sounds like the tool to use
[10:39] <Lasers> thunder1212: What is it that you're really trying to do?
[10:39] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  I think a combination of find an grep in -exec
[10:39] <AcidRain> hes tryin to use hax!
[10:40] <Slart> Lasers: doesn't that just search the path where ubuntu looks for binaries?
[10:40] <thunder1212> i want file with filename firefox
[10:40] <hrobjartur> thunder1212: also there are versions of find with -grep I recall
[10:40] <hrobjartur> thunder1212: but not this one
[10:40] <Mandrew> what did i kill if i cant right click on the desktop to get up that menu? i have installed the elementary- nautilius, could that be the problem?
[10:40] <somsip> hrobjartur: I'm not looking to add anything into my system I won't use, so can't help you
[10:41] <Lasers> Slart: Dunno. He's being vague. I'm being vague.
[10:41] <Slart> Lasers: =)
[10:41] <hrobjartur> somsip:  alright, no sweat :)
[10:42] <Slart> thunder1212: this looks promising http://fixunix.com/unix/537045-grep-string-delete-files-containing-string.html
[10:42] <thunder1212> Lasers, i want to delete  all files related to firefox
[10:42] <Slart> thunder1212: but please be careful.. find together with rm can get ugly if you end up doing something wrong
[10:42] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:    try  find / -type f -exec grep -l "IP" {} \;
[10:42] <SwedeMike> thunder1212: related in what way?
[10:43] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  well try "find /yourstartdir/ -type f -exec grep -l "firefox" {} \;
[10:43] <artem> hello
[10:43] <artem> есть русские?
[10:43] <Slart> !ru | artem
[10:43] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  this will list all files that contain firefox under your /yourstartdir/
[10:43] <thunder1212> SwedeMike, i want to delete firefox and remove any trace of firefox that exist on my system
[10:43] <Lasers> thunder1212: Try "sudo dpkg -L $PACKAGE"
[10:43] <Lasers> thunder1212: It'll list all files for the said package.
[10:44] <SwedeMike> thunder1212: dpkg --remove <package> and go in ~/.mozilla and delete the firefox directory.
[10:44] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:   if you then want to delete them... then I think  find /yourstartdir/ -type f -delete -exec grep -l "firefox" {} \;
[10:44] <Lasers> SwedeMike: God. That might be the thing he is trying to remove.... ~/.mozilla
[10:44] <hrobjartur> thunder1212: be carefule with the delete command... try it first out without delete please!
[10:44] <SwedeMike> Lasers: yes. this is a typical example of the user asking for one thing instead of stating the high level goal.
[10:45] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  ehm... sorry now I see what you actually want to do...
[10:46] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:   I wouldnt delete all files that mention firefox on you computer... you never know if some other files mention firefox!!
[10:46] <hrobjartur> thunder1212: plus... I doubt all firefox files actually mention firefox in ascii... some are simple binaries...!
[10:46] <tyrone> anyone know how to connect an ubuntu machine to a windows network
[10:47] <Slart> !samba | tyrone, if this is what you want
[10:47] <trinity9000> tyrone: Samba and winbind
[10:48] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  why are you so worried that there might be some remnant firefox related files lying around?
[10:48] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  your problem is probably something altgether different than your suggested cure
[10:49] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, ok tell me to just see all the files that has firefox in its name
[10:49] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, with the location
[10:50] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  find / -type f -name "*firefox*"
[10:52] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  sorry... I meant     find / -type f -iname "*firefox*"
[10:52] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:   -iname  NOT -name
[10:53] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:   do you also want to find folders with this name?
[10:53] <bk> is TimeVault a good backup tool for Ubuntu? Or is there something newer/better?
[10:53] <bk> I am looking for an alternative to Time Machine for Linux
[10:53] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, yes
[10:53] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, whats d diff between name and iname
[10:53] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:   then simply       find /   -iname "*firefox*"
[10:54] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:   -name looks for case sensitive.... -iname looks case in-sensitive
[10:54] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, ok :)
[10:54] <marsfligth> SwedeMike: finally i found a solution, the only working for me. i switched to 'zsh' shell, then i used this syntax 'sudo chmod --recursive ugoa=rwx .' i tried with many other options/synax but my maverick 64 us-en recognize only tis ... incredible isnt'it?
[10:54] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  with -iname  you can find both    blablaFirefox and blablaFirEFox... etc
[10:55] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, ok now can i pipe rm command and remove all the files and directories
[10:55] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, yes , i got it
[10:55] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  well,  I expect you can simply add the switch   -delete to your find
[10:55] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, ok am trying
[10:56] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  you can play around with it.... touch some files and mkdir  in some folder....   be careful not to run  find /  with -delete until you are sure its finding the right stuff!
[10:57] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  oh and also dont run it with sudo until ur ready :)
[10:58] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, am using it with sudo, then only it displays all files
[10:58] <barberan> I've got much folders one in one... mess hierarchy. Somewhere, there is a file *.py. How do I find the location of the file in such a mess-organized folders ?
[10:58] <janedoe> ok, I wanna have access to my computer administratively from anywhere and I heard of neorouter. though I don't wanna get infected of course, so can anyone recommend it?
[10:59] <hrobjartur> barberan:  ask thunder1212
[10:59] <trinity9000> barberan: use the find command
[10:59] <|OLLIE|> just make sure that the -delete option is AFTER the -name option.. or it'll delete everything.
[11:00] <thunder1212> barberan, just type this in ur terminal.. find / -iname "*.py"
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> thunder1212: that'l give a LOT of results
[11:01] <thunder1212> ActionParsnip, i want complete details
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> barberan: instead of / in thunder1212's suggestion, use the highest folder you can, if that is / then so be it
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> thunder1212: makes sense
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> janedoe: could use ssh
[11:02] <barberan> ooooh! I see I see, thank you guys
[11:02] <thunder1212> ActionParsnip, yes ;)
[11:02] <janedoe> yeah I heard that, but I also heard that it is only to have access for certain things, I wanna have the full package ;)
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> janedoe: what do you need access to exactly?
[11:03] <hrobjartur> ActionParsnip:   doesnt the gnome web-browser allow you to run find also?  maybe easier for beginners
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> hrobjartur: never used it, so cannot comment on it
[11:03] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, where exactly should i use the switch -delete
[11:03] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  be super carful
[11:03] <janedoe> to the entire bandwidth of my computer, in order to control all my files and stuff..
[11:04] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  dont add it before -name or before -exec
[11:04] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, ok
[11:04] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  like |OLLIE| said
[11:04] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:   find / -iname "*firefox*" -delete
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> janedoe: yes, you can control files via ssh
[11:04] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  however... I think this is crazy!
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> janedoe: it will have as much bandwidth as the system normally has
[11:04] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  I wouldnt do it... but if you really want to
[11:04] <thunder1212> hrobjartur, thanks ;)
[11:05] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  you might not be able to restart even
[11:05] <janedoe> ActionParsnip: really? well that is cool, then I'm a really try that one. thx alot :)
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> janedoe: no worries. If you conect with:  ssh -X user@server    you can lauch graphical apps and they will show in the client system
[11:06] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:   the thing is... like I said before.... there are all sorts of files that might contain firefox... even in their names... Im not sure this is safe...  I
[11:06] <hrobjartur> thunder1212:  Im not willing to say at least that  "sudo find / -iname "*firefox*"  "     is safe
[11:06] <learn> Any body know any good encode/decode tool?(base64, url decode...)?
[11:07] <hrobjartur> is    sudo find / -iname "*firefox*" -delete        safe, anybody??
[11:07] <ActionParsnip> hrobjartur: if you uninstall the firefox packages, its a better idea
[11:07] <trinity9000> learn: Could use PHP for those functions
[11:08] <janedoe> ActionParsnip: I am completely new to ubuntu so I am not sure if you are talking about a terminal or if that will just bring me to sth.. though I guess I can make it, I made it till here, so I am positive I am goanna make it.. otherwise I will be back (in the words of the terminator ;) )
[11:08] <|OLLIE|> its safe, if you want all files with firefox in deleted.. but you should really dump the list of files to a file and read through it to make sure that there is no surprises.
[11:08] <SwedeMike> hrobjartur / thunder1212: you should just drop this line of thinking totally, if you want to delete firefox then you remove the packages and the files in the . dir in the home dir, doing system-wide searches and deleing files basically at random is not safe.
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> janedoe: its a terminal command, its one way to connect to a server via ssh
[11:09] <learn> trinity9000: just need a tool to do a encode/decode on base64, url, hex...
[11:10] <janedoe> ActionParsnip: yeah but first I have to install the ssh-thing right (know that sounds amateurish)
[11:10] <janedoe> ?
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> janedoe: on the server, yes. On ubuntu clients, no
[11:10] <trinity9000> learn: There's a standard Linux program for base64 I think, but not for the rest. Best bet is using the standard library of some programming language like PHP, Java, Perl etc.
[11:11] <janedoe> ActionParsnip: now I am overstrained :/ well I guess, I will read some stuff.. :/
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> janedoe: the server side needs openssh-server installing. The client is already part of a default install
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> trinity9000: http://www.motobit.com/util/base64-decoder-encoder.asp
[11:12] <janedoe> ActionParsnip: alright, but do I need that server stuff?
[11:12] <dc5ala> learn, you probably have to use a programming/scripting language of your choice (perl, php, ruby, ...)
[11:13] <learn> ActionParsnip: hi, have any console base tool, if dont have internet than unable to decode/encode?
[11:14] <szal> learn: please speak English :)

[11:18] <Termaster> do you think something will be changed
[11:18] <szal> !enter | Termaster
[11:18] <trinity9000> Termaster: There are some bugs which are never fixed and simply closed as irrelevant a year later
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> Termaster: the bug guys will decide that, just keep watching it
[11:18] <trinity9000> Termaster: Depends on the priority and how hard it is to reproduce
[11:18] <Termaster> szal: stopp that
[11:19] <dwatkins> Termaster: as a workaround can you not just move the window to the middle of the appropriate workspace?
[11:19] <szal> Termaster: adhere to channel rules & I'll do
[11:19] <Termaster> trinity9000: you mean, moving it to the middle
[11:19] <Termaster> trinity9000: and then maximize it
[11:20] <dwatkins> Termaster: I do, yes
[11:20] <tyrone> ok... so I'm a noob... what just happened with the outburst from GoodPoot
[11:20] <ActionParsnip> szal: s/he is. there is no problem with the users behaviour
[11:20] <Termaster> ok tanks
[11:20] <Termaster> szal: i do not do anything wrong
[11:20] <trinity9000> tyrone: He was banned, as you've expect
[11:21] <szal> ActionParsnip: ok, in this case it's rather 'guidelines'
[11:21] <trinity9000> tyrone: One of the bots is probably setup to trigger on certain words
[11:21] <Kingsy> how do I check my php version in ubuntu ?

[11:21] <tyrone> i see so calling the "!ops" did that?
[11:22] <trinity9000> Kingsy: Or you could look in synaptic to see which version is installed
[11:22] <Termaster> thats a fake from you because it took so long
[11:22] <ikonia> Termaster: szal please lets drop it
[11:22] <ikonia> no harm done, so lets move on
[11:22] <Termaster> and it is not a question and pms are allowed
[11:22] <ikonia> Termaster: please, no harm's been done, so lets move on

[11:34] <Stormshadow> hi all...i partitioned a USB disk using gparted and included a FAT32 partition (used mkfs.vfat -F 32)...when i plug in the USB on a windows system, all ext3 partitions are seen as allocated, whereas the FAT32 partition is unallocated. All looks well on Ubuntu. Disk label is GPT...any ideas why windows fails to show the fat32 partition?
[11:35] <ActionParsnip> Stormshadow: did you unmount the volume properly?
[11:35] <efrem> iceroot: http://pastie.org/2242329

[11:53] <dean> Hey all could anyone give me any help with kubuntu at all I know this is Ubuntu but the Kubuntu channel are so ignorant
[11:53] <ParkerR> dean, what's wrong?
[11:53] <obeyance> Is it polite to ask for help with something?
[11:53] <ParkerR> Yes
[11:54] <obeyance> K, im new to Ubuntu but im picking up pretty quick.
[11:54] <obeyance> I have one question, for now.
[11:54] <ParkerR> Shoot
[11:54] <dean> ParkerR, I installed Kubuntu yesterday and before I did anything I installed Synaptic and then tried to install Kubuntu Restricted extras and it froze at the end and messed up my installation?
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> dean: boot to root recovery mode and run:  sudo apt-get -f install
[11:55] <obeyance> When i scroll on web pages and folders with more than a page of files on it, its jerky/choppy.
[11:55] <dean> ActionParsnip, What does that do if you don't mind me asking?
[11:55] <ParkerR> OK. First. Why is that a question? dean. Did it freeze it or not?
[11:55] <dean> ParkerR, Yeah it froze
[11:55] <obeyance> I have an Nvidia 7900GS KO, and i have the (Recommended) drivers option selected.
[11:55] <ParkerR> Try what Archtivity said
[11:55] <barberan> where do I see my cpu, motherbrd temperature? 11.04
[11:55] <coz_> obeyance,  are you running Unity with that?
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> dean: fixes the packages as best it can
[11:56] <dean> ActionParsnip, Oh ok cool thanks for that. Is there any known issues with synaptic compatibility with Kubuntu?
[11:56] <coz_> obeyance,    open ccsm.. click on the OPenGL  plugin to get into it's settings and disable  "Sync To VBlank"  then see if it is still as choppy
[11:57] <ParkerR> coz_, I thought ccsm was an extra download?
[11:57] <obeyance> Me too, for Compiz.
[11:57] <coz_> ParkerR,  it is ,,  but necessary if any real changes are to be made in the setting for compiz
[11:58] <ParkerR> Well then he might not have it. sudo apt-get install ccsm
[11:58] <obeyance> I dont see where to go.
[11:58] <obeyance> I do have it.
[11:58] <ParkerR> Oh cool
[11:58] <coz_> obeyance,  ccsm is opened?
[11:58] <efrem_> parkerR: is you mean run sudo dpkg -i skype_<IP_ADDRESS>-0lucid1_i386.deb after i download?
[11:58] <ParkerR> Yes
[11:58] <obeyance> Yes im on the ALL cat.
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> dean: I've not used KDE in about 8 years, sorry
[11:59] <dean> ActionParsnip, Ok no probs thanks anyway
[11:59] <istiaque_> Hi,I am a new user in linux . I have dongle modem its model ZTE-AX-226,wimax usb modem.i have no driver ,Now ,how to connect it in linux?
[11:59] <ParkerR> Brb reinstalling 10.04.2.
[12:00] <coz_> dean the last time I used kde with synaptic there were no issues, however,, kde has its own package manager,, its different but not  too confusing
[12:00]  * szal uses aptitude anyway
[12:00] <szal> !away | Reikoku
[12:01] <obeyance> Yeah. Im not finding the OpenGL options anywhere. Where are they in the CCSM?
[12:01] <coz_> guys,, not sure who is speaking to whom here,, it's a good idea to type the first 2 or 3  letters of someone name you are speaking with then hitting the tab button to complete their nick  so they can be alerted on their end
[12:01] <Reikoku> :P That's *REALLY* on the bot?
[12:01] <binni> how do I zip many files when the paths to these files is stored in a txt file? something like "zip files1.zip <from the paths included in files.txt>"
[12:01] <obeyance> Im only talking to you.
[12:01] <Guest72146> Hello

[12:04] <bazhang> !gnome3 > Guest72146
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> Guest72146: 11.04 Ubuntu uses Gnome desktop
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> !gnome3 | Guest72146
[12:04] <coz_> obeyance,  ah ok then in all honesty,, I would wait until that has completed and you rebooted before trying to fix anything
[12:04] <bazhang> Guest72146, its not supported, will break things. steer clear
[12:05] <Guest72146> But bazhang unity has a problem with window
[12:05] <Guest72146> So i cant use it
[12:05] <gere> ActionParsnip:gparted mean?how can we use?
[12:05] <qin> binni: if it is clean (no whites): zip file.zip `cat filewithpaths`

[12:07] <Guest72146> Bazhang wait i will look
[12:07] <Guest72146> Wait
[12:07] <coz_> andrewS,   I would go with gpaint and pinta  for starters

[12:07] <andrewS> am
[12:09] <obeyance> So when i get 1104 installed all the way, what do you think the issue is?
[12:09] <obeyance> It did it on 9.10, 10.4, and now 10.10.
[12:09] <szal> obeyance: what did?
[12:10] <obeyance> Choppy scrolling of web pages and other scrolling things.
[12:10] <obeyance> Not menues though.
[12:10] <bazhang> Guest72146, use classic then
[12:10] <Guest72146> Ok
[12:10] <obeyance> Just web pages and folders.
[12:10] <bazhang> !classic | Guest72146
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> gere: yes
[12:10] <BluesKaj> kim_, do you m ean someone installed ubuntu in windows ? That would be what is called a wubi install or perhaps VMware ?
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: what browser do you use?
[12:11] <obeyance> Firefox.
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: tried a different browser?
[12:11] <obeyance> But it does it in folders too.
[12:11] <obeyance> Its like i dont have any graphiscs drivers.
[12:11] <obeyance> graphics*
[12:11] <coz_> obeyance,    you are in the middle of upgrading
[12:11] <szal> obeyance: old machine perhaps that just doesn't cut it these days
[12:12] <coz_> obeyance,   in terminal    lspci | grep -i  vga
[12:12] <obeyance> I am 45 min from starting to upgrade. But im not going to fix it right this second. Ill wait till later but i wouldnt mind a walk through on the issue while i wait =)
[12:13] <obeyance> its like 5 years old... But ran windows 7 up till 2 weeks ago.
[12:13] <obeyance> 7 ultimate.
[12:13] <coz_> obeyance,  ok and which video card do you have there?
[12:13] <obeyance> 7900GS
[12:13] <obeyance> 2 gigs of ram.

[12:15] <shomon> hi, where is a good place to find out how to convert a wav to an mp3 in ubuntu, just on the command line?
[12:15] <obeyance> Which its about 1/5th of the way downloading.
[12:15] <coz_> shomon,   use ffmpeg
[12:15] <shomon> ok thanks
[12:15] <obeyance> I could stop now and have no issues.
[12:15] <coz_> shomon,   ffmpeg  -i  name of wav   nameof.mp3
[12:15] <Chat1325> .       ;;)               >=)  .      <//)             <//).       _\^/_          _\!/_  .                       
[12:16] <bluefrost> So... does unity have a place to put my gnome-eyes yet?
[12:16] <szal> Chat1325: other than that, youre encoding is broken
[12:16] <shomon> c ool, thanks coz_ downloading now :)
[12:16] <obeyance> szal: Its a PCIE card.
[12:16] <coz_> shomon,  t his also works for video conversions as well  same command  ffmpeg -i   etc etc
[12:16] <obeyance> 256MB GPU putting out 20 pipelines.
[12:16] <shomon> coz_,  used to be much more haphazard looking process using rec and messing with audio settings...
[12:17] <coz_> shomon,  however if you want more control with ffmpeg,, you may want to either go online and research it's options and various command combinations or just read the m an page
[12:17] <shomon> yeah sure, will do
[12:17] <szal> obeyance: anyhoo, GF7 isn't exactly the fanciest gfx card out there; for better performance you should look for a GF8 or newer (better hardware acceleration support)
[12:17] <obeyance> My PC is more than adiquite to run basic web pages even with the most bloated OS.
[12:17] <BluesKaj> kim_, ubuntu is not an app that installs in windows , it's an operating system which may have deleted your windows data and operating system ,if you chose to install it there
[12:17] <coz_> obeyance,  your system should run 11.04  fairly well
[12:18] <obeyance> szal, the next step up from a 7900GS KO is an 8800GTX
[12:18] <szal> obeyance: otoh, I have no problems w/ scrolling on my old secondary machine (single-core AMD, GeForce FX 5900XT)
[12:18] <obeyance> But i dont have any money to buy any hardware... so im stuck with my machine which plays what i want to play just fine.
[12:19] <szal> obeyance: so wait for your upgrade to finish & install nvidia driver
[12:19] <obeyance> Im sure its just a configuration issue.
[12:19] <gere> I have installed gparted to desktop
[12:19] <gere> Next step
[12:19] <obeyance> Thats the deal, i downloaded and updated my GFX drivers.
[12:19] <dukepukem> hey guys. I have a question. I have a computer set up a windows and ubuntu parition. I want to overwrite my ubuntu partion with a fresh install. Will I have to restore my MBR?
[12:19] <coz_> obeyance,  ah.... you downloaded them  from nvidia?
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: I use a geforce 6150 onboard and it runs fine. What is the system intended for?
[12:20] <szal> dukepukem: no
[12:20] <shomon> do I need a specific library or apt package to get ffmpeg to work with mp3s? the man page talks about a .configure option to enable it...
[12:20] <Mr> how can install google talk and skype to my compter?
[12:20] <dukepukem> szal thanks
[12:20] <coz_> shomon,  I dont believe so ,, did you try that command to convert it?
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> Mr: skype can be downloaded from the skype website
[12:20] <shomon> yes
[12:20] <Tainlorn> hi all, ive just noticed this cron job on my ubuntu VPS, can anyone tell me ehat its doing? :[ -x /usr/lib/php5/maxlifetime ] && [ -d /var/lib/php5 ] && find /var/lib/php5/ -type f -cmin +$(/usr/lib/php5/maxlifetime) -print0 | xargs -n 200 -r -0 rm

[12:20] <aetas> dukepukem, just dont accidentally tell it it can format it, which it will ask during install
[12:20] <coz_> shomon,  also did you install the ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[12:20] <kim_> Ok, I have a *wubi* install of ubuntu. Where is wubi keeking it's files? (I've checked the wubi faq, but it wasn't clear on that)
[12:21] <kim_> keeping
[12:21] <Mr> what about google talk?
[12:21] <shomon> ah, no I didn't. will have a look..
[12:21] <szal> ActionParsnip, shomon: Skype is in the Partner PPA, it just needs to be enabled
[12:21] <coz_> shomon,  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> szal: true enough
[12:21] <CloudAche84> asked earlier but has anyone installed ubuntu to iscsi root with preseed file?
[12:21] <obeyance> coz_: I got them from the "Additional Drivers" Dialog and i have (Version Current)[Recommended] activated.
[12:21] <nyuszika7h> !info ubuntu-restricted-extras
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> Mr: pidgin and empathy can both use the googletalk protocol
[12:21] <dukepukem> aetas tell it not to format the whole drive or just the partition?
[12:21] <coz_> obeyance,   ok  ,, you may have to reinstall them after the upgrade
[12:22] <coz_> obeyance,   hopefully not but still I would wait
[12:22] <jamshid> hello everybody
[12:22] <coz_> hey
[12:22] <dukepukem> howdy
[12:22] <jamshid> how to i find C programming chat room
[12:22] <dukepukem> try /list
[12:22] <shomon> coz_, that's much better now, thanks
[12:22] <obeyance> yeah its annoying cause if i wind the wheel down a few times it takes forever to scroll down the page cause its so choppy.

[12:22] <coz_> shomon,   cool
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> jamshid: try #C
[12:23] <jamshid> thanks
[12:24] <obeyance> I also dont understand why my FPS drops by 100% when i go into desktop cube.
[12:24] <obeyance> From 200+ to 20.
[12:24] <coz_> obeyance,  well the cube is definitly going to take up resources  however that does sound a bit excessive
[12:25] <Mr> Hello jamshid
[12:25] <obeyance> Yeah, to me too. Thats why i mentioned it.
[12:25] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: which driver is the nvidia chip using?
[12:25] <kim_> ok found it, wubi stores files in the normal home directory for windows users
[12:25] <saikat> can anyone help me to find any contact info of partnership on ubuntu?
[12:25] <obeyance> It says (Version Current)[Recommended]
[12:26] <obeyance> ActionParsnip, It says (Version Current)[Recommended]
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: ok can you pastebin the output of:  sudo lshw -C display; lsb_release -a; dpkg -l | grep nvidia
[12:26] <nyuszika7h> :/
[12:26] <nyuszika7h> Oops, wrong channel.
[12:26] <nyuszika7h> And wrong network.
[12:27] <obeyance> What is pastebin?
[12:28] <dr-willis> !pastebin
[12:28] <nyuszika7h> !pastebin
[12:28] <nyuszika7h> lol, help overload.
[12:29] <obeyance> http://paste.ubuntu.com/648199/
[12:29] <Pici> saikat: What do you mean? Are you looking for information for the Canonical Partners program?
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: looks good to me
[12:29] <obeyance> Heh it says that my clock speed is 33MHz?
[12:30] <saikat> Pici : yes
[12:30] <Mr> tnx in advance
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: my onboard says 66Mhz
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: interesting
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: is it a PCI video card?
[12:31] <Pici> saikat: Your best source of information is right here: http://www.canonical.com/about-canonical/partnerships - Note that we in this channel are only members of the community, we don't represent Canonical themselves.
[12:31] <gere> so how can i create partion after I install gparted.....???
[12:32] <obeyance> ActionParsnip, Its a PCI Express card.
[12:32] <Pici> saikat: Use the contact form there if you require more information.
[12:32] <coz_> ooo
[12:32] <obeyance> You think its not set correctly or something?
[12:32] <coz_> obeyance,   well for pcie that seems a bit slow
[12:32] <gere> so how can i create partion after I install gparted.....???
[12:32] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: doesn't sem that way, seems to think it's a pci card
[12:32] <dr-willis> gere:  run gparted and use it.. clarify the problem
[12:32] <szal> ActionParsnip: interesting indeed, mine says '33 MHz' as well (PCIe)
[12:33] <coz_> gere,    http://gparted.sourceforge.net/display-doc.php?name=help-manual&lang=C
[12:33] <ActionParsnip> szal: curiouser and curiouser
[12:34] <szal> ActionParsnip: such is life, and it's getting sucher and sucher ;)
[12:34] <obeyance> lol
[12:34] <dr-willis> gparted may need to be ran from a live cd for some tasks
[12:34] <obeyance> Have any of you guys dealt with Lucid Puppy?
[12:34] <coz_> obeyance,  I have not
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: indeed
[12:35] <szal> obeyance: if that's a derivative of Puppy Linux, it's off-topic here
[12:35] <ActionParsnip> szal: it can use ubuntu repos, its a strange hound indeed
[12:35] <obeyance> I have a laptop that doesnt have a working hard drive and i wanted to be able to use it. I was thinking about getting a small distro and installing it on my 2g USB flash drive but it says i need a windows computer to do conversion?
[12:35] <dr-willis> obeyance:  see the puppylinux channel
[12:35] <szal> obeyance: conversion?
[12:36] <obeyance> Lucid puppy is a cross between Ubuntu 10.04 and Puppy.
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: puppy will be great then, or you can use xpud ;)
[12:36] <thunder1212> hi
[12:36] <szal> obeyance: Tiny Core (10 MB)
[12:36] <obeyance> "# Windows PC (XP/VIsta/7) to perform the conversion
[12:36] <obeyance> "
[12:36] <dr-willis> obeyance:  you nan do a normal install to a 8gb drive and it should work ok.
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: any small size diro will fit. If you can get an 8Gb SD, you can run a full Ubuntu with ease
[12:37] <obeyance> I dont have any money =(
[12:37] <dr-willis> a 4gb is useable. barely
[12:37] <lihelin> hi
[12:37] <obeyance> Or... If i could install on my USB external...
[12:37] <obeyance> I have a 300GB WD mybook, but it might not work on it.
[12:37] <dr-willis> 4gb usb $5   here i saw
[12:37] <lihelin> nobody there?
[12:37]  * szal bought a 16 GB USB pen earlier this year for like €15
[12:37] <dr-willis> external usb hds work fine for me
[12:38] <qin> lihelin: nobody left, he will be back.
[12:38] <thunder1212> i ran this command find / -delete -iname "*firefox*" and now my system does not boot and gives grub rescue error
[12:38] <thunder1212> i just want to save my data
[12:38] <obeyance> dr-willis, for installing and booted from?
[12:38] <dr-willis> be suru grub gets installed to the usnhd
[12:38] <szal> still have to check how live or installed USB system works here w/ a CF card; my 8 GB CF is lying around unused atm
[12:38] <dr-willis> obeyance:  yes
[12:39] <szal> but I think I'll wait w/ that until I have a new card reader
[12:39] <obeyance> Hm
[12:39] <obeyance> What about it being NTFS?
[12:39] <Slart> are there any gotchas with sharing an xfs volume over nfs?
[12:39] <lihelin> ntfs is not good for linux
[12:39] <dr-willis> you dont install to a ntfs filesystem
[12:40] <lihelin> yes,you should use fat32
[12:40] <dr-willis> you make normal linux partitions  same as for a internal hd
[12:40] <obeyance> Then i cant install to that HDD
[12:40] <dr-willis> repartition it...
[12:40] <obeyance> Cause its formatted for windows use under NTFS because Fat32 only allows for 4gig transfers
[12:40] <obeyance> Its my back up drive and i put large amounts at a time on it so i cant change it to less =\
[12:40] <dr-willis> you dont do a normal install to ntfs either...
[12:41] <ActionParsnip> obeyance: you'd want a persistant install which needs a bit more work
[12:42] <obeyance> Right, which was why i had slimmed down the choices to this one distro. Its small so i could install on the 2g USB flash and its light so it will run well off what the laptop has on board.
[12:42] <dr-willis> your backup drive really should be kept someplace safe.. not used as an daily os drive...
[12:42] <dan__> hi dual boot ubuntu and windows and windows wont boot so im going to have to reinstall it. i have had GRUB stop working after doing this before but am i right in thinking that if its on the linux partition it shouldnt be damaged?
[12:43] <dr-willis> with tiny core linux you can boot from flash and keep the files on an internal fat32/ntfs disk i think
[12:43] <obeyance> Its just... stuff. There is nothing sensitive, expencive or anything that i cant get again on it.
[12:43] <dr-willis> !fixgrub
[12:43] <obeyance> I use it for transfering data from one computer to another and to save data if an OS fails.
[12:44] <thunder1212> this is my partition scheme.. /home / and swap
[12:44] <obeyance> Which, that has been years ago that i had to save data, at least till 2 weeks ago.
[12:44] <dr-willis> dan__:  if you got a spare flash drive you can install grub to it.. make sure it boots the flash to your system, and use that to repair grub later.
[12:44] <obeyance> Luckily i still had my Ubuntu 9.10 LiveCD
[12:44] <dan__> thats another thing. i installed 11.04 clean yet grub-install -v tells me im running GRUB 0.97
[12:45] <gskill> out of gdm!!! the system starts on console mode
[12:45] <gskill> :(
[12:46] <dr-willis> try startx gskill
[12:46] <dan__> i think with my setup the ubuntu disk boots first so why would grub and my ability to boot ubuntu be affected?
[12:47] <gskill> dr-willis, Fatal server error: no screens found
[12:47] <spreetzer> can somebody help me with a permission problem? I have a user named passenger, which is in the www-data group. i have a directory /var/www which is owned by www-data, when i log in as passenger and try to chmod this directory i get permission denied? i am kinda new to this and tought that if a user is in a group he can do whatever he wants on a directory owned by the group this user is in...
[12:47] <dr-willis> windows may overwrite it. you could unplug the hd to be sure
[12:47] <dr-willis> gskill:  you got some x issues then
[12:47] <llutz> spreetzer: only owner  or root can do
[12:48] <gskill> dr-willis, yeah.... I just changed my login screen
[12:48] <spreetzer> so passenger is in www-data, /var/www is owned by www-data. How do i get passenger user to be able to chmod this directory?
[12:48] <dr-willis> gskill:  changed how
[12:48] <dan__> thats probably a good idea. grub should think its the same as before. thanks for the help
[12:49] <llutz> spreetzer: you cannot unless you make him owner of that dir
[12:49] <gskill> with cp dr-willis
[12:49] <spreetzer> then i don't understand the use of groups? somebody told me, put users in www-data, let www-data own /var/www so all users in that directory have access to that directory :S
[12:49] <[Joose]> Ubuntu 11.04 uses GNOME v3 right?
[12:49] <oal> There are lots of small back dots (5x5 to 10x10) pixels flashing on and off in the top right corner of my screen. Is my graphics card dying?
[12:50] <llutz> spreetzer: having access to something and having the right to chmod/chown are different things.
[12:50] <spreetzer> ok, well maybe you can tell me, i want all users in www-data to have read/write access to /var/www, what should i do?
[12:51] <llutz> spreetzer: chmod  g+w    on all dirs inside /var/www
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> oal: does it happen in all OSes?
[12:53] <llutz> spreetzer:  find /var/www -type d |xargs chmod g+w               as root
[12:53] <[Joose]> Will I have any problems if I switch from GNOME3 to Gnome Classic? i.e. lost files, lost programs, any incompatibilites. Will I have the option to switch back if I don't like it?
[12:53] <oal> ActionParsnip: I only have Ubuntu, so I can't test it with windows
[12:53] <gskill> dr-willis, I just change the wallpaper of my login screen... just that... with the terminal, by using the cp command
[12:54] <spreetzer> llutz: that command didn't return anything, no errors, but still when i login as passenger user and try to chmod i still get 'operation not permitted'
[12:54] <llutz> spreetzer: you cannot unless you make him owner of that dir
[12:55] <spreetzer> but what if i have 2 users in www-data, should i both be owner of that dir?
[12:55] <jonathon_> Anyone here got the link to fix the headphone port for laptops? I'm havin trouble finding it
[12:55] <llutz> spreetzer: having access to something and having the right to chmod/chown are different things.  your user can read/write/remove files inside /var/www if hes groupmember, but he CANNOT chown/chmod
[12:55] <llutz> spreetzer: and tbh, why should the group chown/chmod things there?
[12:56] <CaT_MaN> hello all, Does someone know how to set time to wait for snmpwalk command ?
[12:56] <obeyance> K, thank you guys for being nice and helpful. Im going to take a power nap while this finishes up and ill be back to try and figure out this graphics issue.
[12:56] <spreetzer> llutz: that's what capistrano does after a deploy
[12:56] <llutz> spreetzer: you dont want your webserver having full read/write-access to all stuff inside /var/www too
[12:56] <mang0> Does anybody here use GTK cairo-dock? I can't get the drop&share applet to work for images :/
[12:57] <aeon-ltd> 3/quit
[12:57] <spreetzer> llutz: not my webserve, it's passenger user, which deploys my website
[12:58] <llutz> spreetzer: only one user? make him owner of /var/www/* and he can do what you want. chgrp -R www-data /var/www          for httpd-access
[12:59] <jonathon_> Anyone here got the link to fix the headphone port for laptops?
[12:59] <antihero> How would I get the installed package version?
[13:00] <llutz>  apt-cache policy <package>
[13:02] <llutz> spreetzer: you might ask in #Capistrano for further help (i had to google what that is)
[13:02] <gskill> so
[13:03] <gskill> anyone has this issue before?
[13:03] <antihero> Anyone else find google's repos to be horrendously slow to wait for headers
[13:03] <trinity9000> antihero: No, I find Google's repository to be most excellent
[13:03] <gskill> damn
[13:03] <Rigin> join #ubuntu
[13:03] <gskill> :S
[13:05] <gskill> how can I restart my xserver? :S there is an error: Failed to connect to x server
[13:05] <vilsonfarias> \join #gaim
[13:05] <antihero> trinity9000: Weird.
[13:05] <antihero> llutz: Thanks, by the way.
[13:05]  * amol_beast says Hello
[13:05] <antihero> Is it possible to change the compiler used by the "make" command (for the hell of it)
[13:06] <trinity9000> antihero: You can either specify a compiler directly in the make file, or change your default compiler when you call "cc" etc.
[13:07]  * gskill hello
[13:08] <antihero> trinity9000: How would I do either?
[13:09] <doufnufem> test

[13:09] <doufnufem> on a winxp ubuntu machine
[13:09] <doufnufem> when i try to do so i try the first option; erase ubuntu 11.04 and reinstall
[13:09] <doufnufem> how ever i get an error that i have too many paritions
[13:10] <doufnufem> any solutions?

[13:11] <gskill> advanced*
[13:11] <doufnufem> one for ubuntu, one for windows, one for a blank parition i use to swap files between the two, and one for swap
[13:12] <gskill> doufnufem, try with the advanced installation by formating it and then installing the natty again
[13:12] <doufnufem> will i need to reinstall the swap parition?
[13:12] <gskill> doufnufem, no, you don't
[13:13] <gskill> just format the ext partition and that's all
[13:13] <aetas> that you again, duke?
[13:13] <doufnufem> ya

[13:14] <doufnufem> just working on it atm
[13:14] <doufnufem> to many paritions for easy install

[13:18] <gskill> jamshid_, mode r is when the channel can only joined by registered nick on the nickserve
[13:18] <Felersurm> what does one use instead of dd to create a image of a lv on a vg.
[13:18] <jamshid_> thank you!
[13:19] <doufnufem> man idk if im doing this right :x
[13:19] <gskill> jamshid_, u wlcm
[13:19] <ParkerR> Man I love pianobar
[13:19] <Newwwwb> my xubuntu does this odd thing after some use (days).. it makes program windows go away..or some sort
[13:19] <Newwwwb> I could take a pic and show it to you, hold onb
[13:19] <Newwwwb> brb
[13:19] <gskill> well.. so anyone had troubles with the xserver?
[13:19] <ParkerR> This is why everyone should have access to a BNC XD
[13:20] <gskill> it seems like I'm the only one :(
[13:20] <ParkerR> gskill, details
[13:20] <doufnufem> http://i.imgur.com/Fq2sx.png <--- is this right?
[13:20] <Felersurm> gskill: no you are not but your question was a bit general
[13:20] <ParkerR> Nonon make that fat32 ext4
[13:20] <ParkerR> doufnufem,
[13:21] <doufnufem> fat32 is my windows part
[13:21] <ParkerR> sda2 is your windows
[13:21] <ParkerR> sda4 is going to be the linux partition
[13:21] <gskill> ParkerR, Felersurm when I boot on linux ubuntu 10.10, the gnome doesn't works and the login screen is on console mode
[13:21] <ParkerR> Needs to be ext4 or ext3
[13:21] <ParkerR> gskill, dunno
[13:21] <doufnufem> wait excuse me :<
[13:22] <gskill> I have a FX 5200 Nvidia
[13:22] <doufnufem> fat32 is my just storage partition
[13:22] <ParkerR> Oh
[13:22] <gskill> on vga graph
[13:22] <doufnufem> i want to put it on sda/1 thats where i had my previous ubuntu install
[13:22] <ParkerR> So where are you putting linux doufnufem ?
[13:22] <ParkerR> Oh then thats ok
[13:22] <ParkerR> :)
[13:22] <doufnufem> awesome
[13:22] <doufnufem> now just click next?
[13:22] <doufnufem> and hope i dont fuck it up lol
[13:22] <FloodBot1> doufnufem: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:23] <ParkerR> Yep
[13:23] <doufnufem> crap
[13:23] <doufnufem> no root file system detected
[13:23] <doufnufem> :x
[13:23] <ParkerR> Oh
[13:23] <ParkerR> On that etx4 make the mountpoint /
[13:23] <doufnufem> k
[13:23] <Felersurm> gskill: i thought 10.10 to be a bit crappy. so if you dont mind upgrading. do it. goes like this: sudo su and then: aptitude update; aptitude upgrade; do-release-upgrade
[13:24] <ParkerR> *ext4
[13:24] <mang0> n0trusting hrm
[13:24] <gskill> Felersurm, ok I'll try that and see what happens
[13:24] <iceroot> Felersurm: sudo su is wrong
[13:24] <ParkerR> I'm on 10.04.2 right now :)
[13:24] <gskill> iceroot, I know
[13:24] <iceroot> Felersurm: also using a real root-shell is not the supported way
[13:25] <gskill> just su
[13:25] <iceroot> gskill: wrong
[13:25] <doufnufem> sry about all the questions. Like this http://i.imgur.com/qSMZu.png
[13:25] <gskill> but also can I try with ctrl+alt+F2
[13:25] <Felersurm> ill rephrase my question: i heard one shouldnt use dd to copy from lvs. what do i use instead to create images from a logival volume which resides on a volume group??
[13:25] <ParkerR> doufnufem, bingo
[13:25] <doufnufem> tnx
[13:25] <iceroot> !sudo | gskill
[13:25] <gskill> iceroot, I'm happy with my kernel
[13:25] <Felersurm> iceroot: how is sudo su wrong?
[13:26] <iceroot> Felersurm: its setting the environment wrong
[13:26] <ParkerR> You can just do sudo <command>
[13:26] <gskill> just su
[13:26] <iceroot> Felersurm: sudo -i is the correct way for a root-shell
[13:26] <gskill> and then the pass
[13:26] <Felersurm> iceroot: yeah but that doesnt matter for some aptitude runs
[13:26] <iceroot> Felersurm: but we only support sudo command here
[13:26] <gskill> that changes your user to root
[13:26] <iceroot> Felersurm: it can matter
[13:27] <Pici> gskill: The root account is locked by default on Ubuntu.
[13:27] <iceroot> Felersurm: so there is no reason to use the wrong way
[13:27] <dyd> hello all
[13:27] <gskill> Pici, I can use my root account
[13:27] <ParkerR> Yeah me too
[13:27] <iceroot> gskill: you can do what you want but its not supported here
[13:27] <Pici> gskill: Just because you can, doesn't mean your should or recommend to others.
[13:28] <ParkerR> First thing I do is sudo passwd to set root password
[13:28] <dyd> i've done sudo grub-install /dev/sdb, but now at startup i see: error: no such device: E25C67D55C67A351 then grub rescue>
[13:28] <iceroot> ParkerR: same for you as for gskill
[13:28] <dyd> (now i'm with another pc)
[13:28] <gskill> iceroot, I don't want to do nothing but repair my xserver
[13:28] <gskill> :S
[13:28] <ParkerR> I've just never understood why root has always been regarded as forbidden land
[13:29] <iceroot> ParkerR: because there is no reason for a real root-account
[13:29] <gskill> ParkerR, I had to unlock that accout to unlock the keyring....
[13:29] <iceroot> ParkerR: its to easy to break the system when using a root-account
[13:29] <gskill> iceroot, I never use the root account
[13:29] <dyd> can anyone help me with grub stuff?
[13:29] <ParkerR> Yeah, I have heard that.
[13:29] <ParkerR> But I can see how that can happen
[13:30] <iceroot> ParkerR: its not a question of stupid
[13:30] <iceroot> ParkerR: but a normal typo can be bad
[13:30] <Felersurm>  i heard one shouldnt use dd to copy from lvs. what do i use instead to create images from a logival volume which resides on a volume group??
[13:30] <dyd> the situation was like that: i installed ubuntu on a 160 gb hd, but i can't understand why if i plug out a 500 hd it won't load ubuntu, so i tried grub-install on the 160gb hd but nothing changed
[13:30] <chbdyy> YLMF OS 4.0 的视觉效果怎么开啊？
[13:30] <dyd> it's like if grub is installed on the 500 gb hd
[13:30] <gskill> ParkerR, what iceroot wants to mean is that someone can login as root remotely on your pc then do whatever he wants
[13:30] <Lartza> In all cases, is the server edition good for servers?
[13:31] <iceroot> gskill: that is not what i mean
[13:31] <ParkerR> gskill, I don't think so
[13:31] <Felersurm> dyd: probably grub was installed to your 500GB HDs masterbootrecord
[13:31] <chbdyy> 怎么都是老外？
[13:31] <dyd> Felersurm: how can i do the same on my 160hd?
[13:31] <Pici> !zh | chbdyy
[13:31] <dyd> i'm in grub-rescue console
[13:31] <Lartza> Just a home server, but doesn't the server kernel decrease interactivity? Is it heavier than the desktop one and does it perform in streaming and torrents?
[13:31] <gskill> iceroot, I don't have a root account
[13:32] <gskill> I just changed my rood pass
[13:32] <Felersurm> dyd: can you just replug the old HD?
[13:32] <iceroot> gskill: then you have a root-account
[13:32] <gskill> yep
[13:32] <dyd> Felersurm: yes i can do that, but i want to use the 500hd for other pourposes
 iceroot, I don't have a root account
[13:32] <ParkerR> gskill, you aren't making any sense
[13:32] <gskill> iceroot, it was necessary to unlock my keyring...
[13:32] <Felersurm> dyd: yes but then you can boot and installing grub into the 160GB HD will be easier
[13:32] <iceroot> gskill: no
