[05:18] <theanalyst> MeanEYE,  yep its not software solvable i guess...tried most of the open source graphics softwares...nothing quite what i want..
[05:19] <susanowo> man I told you that like an hour ago
[05:19] <susanowo> and you never responded
[05:19] <rob_p> infid: You can view postfix's logs to see if the delivery attempt was successful and if not, why.
[05:19] <MeanEYE> krish_er34, give me a moment to think
[05:19] <krish_er34> @MeanEYE: It gives me a command called boot , but I have to specify the kernel
[05:19] <susanowo> krish_er34: type help
[05:19] <Chaos2358> can some one help me? I recently switched from windows xp media center edition to ubuntu 10.04. before the switch my video playback resolution was great "screen resolution, sharpness, over all picture quality" since the switch it looks like im on an old tube monitor instead of my laptop and even dvd playback is really crappy looking. i've checked all the obvious things such as monitors in my preferences as well as hardware drivers but nothing is helping
[05:19] <Chaos2358> . i dont have this problem viewing pictures though as they are sharp and clear
[05:19] <MeanEYE> krish_er34, tried hitting just enter?
[05:20] <susanowo> krish_er34: where is your kernel located?
[05:20] <infid> rob_p: cool. what's the default dir that mail goes to with postfix?
[05:20] <infid> mailbox
[05:20] <krish_er34> how do I find kerner version ?
[05:20] <MeanEYE> Chaos2358, do you happen to play flash video?
[05:20] <rob_p> infid: Depends on what you have set in Postfix's config.  It supports maildir and mbox among others.
[05:21] <Chaos2358> meanEYE what do you mean? Im not sure i know what flash video is
[05:21] <gaelfx> mobasher: yeah, I'm googlefuing it now, but it looks like you won't be able to use it too well in Lucid
[05:21] <henry__> empathy cant connect (error network)
[05:21] <Loshki> rob_p: I just caught up with your msg to infid above. Describing postfix as 'easily configurable' seems to me to be optimistic, at best. Personally, I prefer ssmtp for simple desktop setups....
[05:21] <MeanEYE> Chaos2358, let me get this straight... resolution is fine, pictures look good, but only video looks crapy?
[05:21] <henry__> empathy cant connect (error network)
[05:21] <Chaos2358> I play dvds and downloaded movies from the web as well as things like hulu.com
[05:22] <MeanEYE> Chaos2358, and they look crappy in what way... you see the granulation ?
[05:22] <rob_p> infid: If mbox, then usually something like /var/spool/mail/username; else ~/Maildir or similar.
[05:22] <krish_er34> I used to get list of options Like recovery mode etc
[05:22] <susanowo> krish_er34: try kernel /boot/kernel26
[05:22] <Chaos2358> MeanEYE yes my desktop screen is great when i view pictures they are perfect but playing any video from hard drive, web stream or dvd looks crappy
[05:22] <krish_er34> but not any more..when I select ubuntu, I directly takes me to grub shell
[05:22] <infid> rob_p: thanks a lot
[05:22] <rob_p> Loshki: Sounds good.  Go with what you know!
[05:22] <rob_p> infid: welcome
[05:23] <MeanEYE> Chaos2358, word crappy doesn't really say much to me. If you can be more specific. Crappy in what way, low frame rate, picture quality... etc.
[05:23] <Chaos2358> MeanEYE it looks blurry like watching a video thats zoomed in too tight
[05:23] <krish_er34> I updated it recently. it may be some 2.6.3 or something else..will just 2.6 work ?
[05:23] <MeanEYE> Chaos2358, which player?
[05:23] <Chaos2358> MeanEYE blurry looking frame rate is ok but its not a sharp crisp picture like it should be
[05:24] <mobasher> gaelfx=}} well even if i make to 9.10 for now i should be okay...for now..i'm actually reading some stuff on it right now as well in forums to install other video drivers to make it work..it's a p4 intel PC still going after 5 years .lol ..i'm just lazy to upgrade it
[05:24] <susanowo> krish_er34: 2.6.32-25?
[05:24] <Chaos2358> MeanEYE movie player the ubuntu default
[05:24] <Loshki> rob_p: actually, if infid's happy with postfix, then it's fine with me too...
[05:24] <krish_er34> it doesnt even suggestions ,that terminal used to give , when I tap the tab
[05:24] <Chaos2358> MeanEYE as well as webstream such as going to hulu.com and watching tv episodes directly in the web window
[05:25] <susanowo> @krish_er34: try kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-25-generic
[05:25] <krish_er34> ok
[05:25] <krish_er34> I will try..thanks..
[05:25] <rob_p> Loshki: That's the great thing about all this, there are usually several if not many ways to reach your end goal.
[05:26] <gaelfx> mobasher: gotta do what you gotta do ;)
[05:26] <Ubuntor> AbhiJit, the remote computer with ubuntu must also have TeamViewer installed right?
[05:26] <Chaos2358> MeanEYE i know it seems odd and thats why i cant figure it out I'm totally stumped. I also a few Hours ago put in my old hard drive which still had my windows xp media center edition on it and the video playback was perfect
[05:26] <AbhiJit> Ubuntor, yes
[05:26] <AbhiJit> Ubuntor, both should join the same session
[05:26] <Chaos2358> MeanEYE and if it makes any difference i'm using a dell inspiron E1505
[05:26] <Ubuntor> AbhiJit, ok good, Thnx again
[05:27] <AbhiJit> Ubuntor, np
[05:27] <MeanEYE> Chaos2358, you got me by surprise here. Point is, those players might be using VideoForLinux but it can't just work on one video and not on the other... It's not player specific
[05:27] <krish_er34> any idea whats that called..is it grub shell ?
[05:27] <mobasher> gaelfx=}} ..i love it..i have a couple of new AMD PC's ..but this is like my baby just don't wana get rid of it...lol..
[05:27] <susanowo> @krish_er34: yes, it is the grub shell
[05:27] <susanowo> it is used to install and configure grub
[05:28] <Chaos2358> MeanEYE it doesnt work on ANY video. videos from any source are like that
[05:28] <susanowo> and also to load a kernel and boot the system
[05:28] <MeanEYE> Chaos2358, hm, can you upload a screenshot or something...?
[05:28] <mobasher> gaelfx=}} well if I get a new graphics card then it should be fine i know..but forget it ..i'm just gona use it till it does but hasn't died of my so far in 5 years
[05:28] <rob_p> Loshki: I'll have to take a look at ssmtp.  I've used Postfix for production MTA for years so it's what I know.  But it's possible there are better solutions for simple, host only type applications.  Thanks for your input.  I'll have a look when I get some time.
[05:28] <jtrag>  :)
[05:28] <gaelfx> I installed ALSA backports module to get my computer to recognize my HDMI audio device, and now that it does, whenever I select it in Pulse, I get no audio. I found that if I select the HDMI audio device in Pulse AND tell smplayer to use the correct ALSA device, I DO get HDMI audio, so my question is how can I get Pulse to do this automatically so that all my other applications can send audio through HDMI?
[05:28] <Chaos2358> MeanEYE you'll have to tell me how
[05:28] <Loshki> Is there a threaded irc client, something a bit more slrn-like?
[05:29] <susanowo> loshki: irssi
[05:29] <martiniano> is there a way to set up the default account for a set of linked contacts?
[05:29] <rww> irssi isn't threaded
[05:29] <martiniano> in empathy
[05:29] <MeanEYE> Chaos2358, while playing any video just hit Print Screen button. Program will pop up, save the image on desktop and then use any image hosting site... like imageshack.us ...
[05:29] <susanowo> irssi would work something like that, though
[05:29] <gaelfx> mobasher: yeah, you know you could always try an external graphics card, I've heard of at least a few success stories with those, though I can't speak to their effectiveness on a laptop setup
[05:29] <jtrag> I've always like irssi or I use the IRC Gadget for Opera Browser which I'm using now
[05:29] <Chaos2358> MeanEYE ok give me a minute
[05:30] <MeanEYE> Chaos2358, as many as you need
[05:30] <krish_er34> if u want,my friend I have worked on a small script called nixsnapr . please check it out :D
[05:30] <krish_er34> https://launchpad.net/nixsnapr
[05:31] <josedown> how do I disable network manager on startup?
[05:31] <seedking> any on here playing the game combats arm ?
[05:31] <krish_er34> thanks for the help guys..I booted from the grub shell :D
[05:31] <mobasher> gaelfx=}} that's the version on the graphics card right now..ATI Technologies Inc RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300 (PCIE)] [1002:5b60]
[05:31] <susanowo> seedking: using wine?
[05:31] <Ryen> !ot | seedking
[05:31] <AbhiJit> josedown, disable it from system->preferences->startup ap
[05:31] <jtrag> Centerim: Centerim is a fork of the centericq instant messaging client. Centerim is a text mode menu- and window-driven IM client program that supports the ICQ2000, Yahoo!, AIM, MSN, IRC and Jabber protocols.

[05:31] <seedking> susan yes
[05:31] <jtrag> http://www.centerim.org/index.php/Main_Page
[05:31] <seedking> i woulednt know any ways around on how to install it
[05:32] <seedking> tryed cedega and playonlinux nothing help
[05:32] <Chaos2358> MeanEYE would it be easier to email you the screen shot?
[05:32] <susanowo> seedking: you can't run those games in wine.  if they use some sort of gameguard, they can't run
[05:32] <jtrag> http://www.bitchx.org/
[05:32] <mobasher> gaelfx=}} i think if i play around with it i should be able to get to 9.10 and then i'm okay...just checking this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[05:32] <MeanEYE> Chaos2358, sure...
[05:32] <seedking> thats kinda sad
[05:32] <susanowo> gameguard and others like it require access to the kernel
[05:32] <susanowo> which wine does not allow.
[05:32] <AbhiJit> any nice rss reader?
[05:32] <seedking> there must be a way around it
[05:32] <jtrag> You should be able to get the ATI 10.x drivers
[05:32] <ridin> seedking: usually the appdb of wine has install directions, unless you're dealing something about gameguard/ahnlab/punkpuster
[05:33] <ridin> punkpuster, punkbuster
[05:33] <ridin> puster muster
[05:33] <seedking> dont really know what combats arm running with
[05:33] <ridin> seedking: ahnlab
[05:33] <susanowo> I think it's gameguard
[05:33] <seedking> only know its an online game
[05:33] <collosi> josedown: you can try opening up startup applications and unchecking network manager
[05:33] <gaelfx> mobasher: yeah, I went through that one already
[05:33] <seedking> and only game i really play ;)
[05:33] <homebrewcider> hi there, how do I remove an application from the applications menu, but keep the application, i.e.- I want it hidden
[05:33] <ridin> i used to play combat arms until i found it was made by nexon
[05:34] <ridin> homebrewcider: System -> preferences -> main menu
[05:34] <seedking> so what about if i want to use some thing like reason proppelerhead in ubuntu is that possible i read some where it was but is hard to install
[05:34] <seedking> but that was ages ago
[05:34] <mobasher> gaelfx=}} well if i upgrade i have to downgrade the gdm on 9.10 and then it will work
[05:34] <ridin> hm, seedking
[05:34] <gaelfx> mobasher: it's just crazy enough to work!
[05:35] <seedking> have linux even made a simple windows emulator ? hmm
[05:35] <jtrag> http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=<IP_ADDRESS>.42&lang=English
[05:35] <susanowo> wine is the best
[05:35] <seedking> yea
[05:35] <seedking> but still
[05:35] <jtrag> ATI Catalyst? 10.9 Proprietary Linux x86 Display Driver
[05:35] <susanowo> I don't think there are any other compatibility layers
[05:35] <mobasher> gaelfx=}} yea it will work...i have heard a few stories where it works just fine
[05:35] <susanowo> seedking: you could run windows in a VM
[05:35] <seedking> ;(
[05:35] <Loshki> rob_p: Well, I looked. It takes a 9 line config file to make ssmtp relay all outgoing mail vi gmail, but there's no queueing of undelivered mail, so it's only good for reliable smtp servers that *never* go down. It strikes me this isn't much to brag about. Maybe *I* should look at *postfix*. Where would you say the best docs are?
[05:35] <ridin> seedking: i know perfect world works ;x
[05:35] <susanowo> aion online works
[05:36] <susanowo> as does World of warcraft
[05:36] <jtrag> Yeah, use Crossover Office, Wine, Cedega
[05:36] <mobasher> gaelfx=}} just makes the overall ubuntu a bit unstable that's all :)
[05:36] <seedking> susanowo,  yea i know , but i dont want to run tons of other programs away from linux
[05:36] <ridin> because there's no gameguard
[05:36] <seedking> crssover office ?
[05:36] <jtrag> They're they best for running Windows Software on Linux
[05:36] <jtrag> Yeah Crossover Office
[05:36] <jtrag> it uses Wine,  but it's way better
[05:36] <seedking> never heard of that what is that and importan is it free ?
[05:36] <jtrag> you can install the Adobe Suite in Linux with it
[05:36] <seedking> and can i install if i have wine ?
[05:36] <jtrag> and Internet Explorer
[05:36] <seedking> nice
[05:37] <jtrag> you have a bit torrent client?
[05:37] <seedking> im a lucky you have a link for it ?
[05:37] <seedking> yea ktorrent
[05:37] <jtrag> k hold on a sec
[05:37] <rob_p> Loshki: Postfix has a *lot* of documentation right on their page.
[05:37] <seedking> thanks mate
[05:37] <mobasher> jtrag=}} why would u want internet explorer...i never liked that thing ...use chrome instead much faster ;-)
[05:37] <ridin> why are you saying that crossover office is better when you can install internet explorer on it
[05:37] <susanowo> firefox is the best
[05:37] <seedking> i tryed install internet explore on wine it always goes wrong
[05:37] <susanowo> IE doesn't even work in wine
[05:37] <rob_p> Loshki: There are also tons of how-to articles written, many of which are linked right from their Website.
[05:37] <seedking> i use IE  for my bank
[05:38] <seedking> only reaason i want it ;)
[05:38] <josue2es> I installed ubuntu with wubi, I dont know what I did but, now when I choose de ubuntu partition it doest load.
[05:38] <seedking> do a fresh install with cd or dvd
[05:38]  * ridin makes some diagram or xkcd based comic strip about internet explorer and linux
[05:38] <seedking> much better

[05:38] <Loshki> rob_p: I'll take a look, thanks. The lack of queuing in ssmtp has always bothered me, though it's never been a problem in practice...
[05:38] <jtrag> That's the Torrent for Crossover for Linux
[05:39] <seedking> thanks for that torrent mate
[05:39] <jtrag> np :)
[05:39] <mobasher> wubi installs are just silly...would rather install virutalbox or something like that to install linux ..why mix horses with goats
[05:39] <seedking> i used to know ubuntu as my back pocket but have been ages ago ive been ubuntu nerd
[05:39] <seedking> back to drawing board lol
[05:39] <jtrag> well actually, the wubi install works extremely well
[05:40] <seedking> indeed it does
[05:40] <jtrag> it's almost faster than a regular install
[05:40] <blakkheim> uh no
[05:40] <seedking> never had problems with just like the dvd install better lol
[05:40] <josue2es> how can I fix the instalation or save the files that I have in the sistem Installed with wubi
[05:40] <jtrag> and it allows full use of your graphics drivers and all
[05:40] <mobasher> jtrag=}} that just almost sounds like u want to swim but don't want to get wet lol
[05:40] <seedking> is there any way to compile a sound driver to linux ?
[05:41] <jtrag> You'll have to install a new linux to a NEW partition, then mount your old Linux Partition in the new one to access the files
[05:41] <seedking> i mean more how to ?
[05:41] <jtrag> then once you get everything off of it, just delete it
[05:41] <seedking> my sound card driver is for linux to as well
[05:41] <seedking> that torrent you gave me says it for mac pro
[05:42] <gaelfx> is there a special room for pulseaudio? searching the roomlist seems to be an exercise in futility
[05:42] <seedking> ah +mac
[05:42] <mobasher> gaelfx=}} don't think there is one for that
[05:42] <jtrag> By the way, here's another great IRC Client which is free, and works on Multiple Platforms (Windows, Linux, Etc...)  http://xchat.org/?
[05:43] <mobasher> Xchat rocks ;-)
[05:43] <seedking> could not open crossover pro7.0.2-1i386.deb is that because i use x64 ubuntu ?
[05:43] <blakkheim> yes
[05:43] <seedking> forgot to tell i use x64 lol
[05:43] <seedking> sorry ^
[05:43] <glebihan> seedking: no, it shouldn't prevent you from opening it
[05:43] <seedking> well i cant install it
[05:43] <jtrag> go to #pulse
[05:44] <jtrag> type the command /join #pulse
[05:44] <mobasher> seedking=}} does flash stuff works on your new x64 ?
[05:44] <glebihan> seedking: in that case yes it might be the eeason
[05:44] <gaelfx> actually, there is a room called pulseaudio
[05:44] <Sikth> Hey guys, I get the message at the Ubuntu logo screen "One or more of the mounts lited in /etc/fstab canno be mounted:/:waitiing for /dev/disk/by-uuid/0641f685-848b-40db-9f5d-8d900e6d9bd2 /tmp:waiting for (null) :waiting for 0 press escape to enter a recovery shell "
[05:44] <seedking> ah there is the x64 lol
[05:44] <seedking> need to loook around lol
[05:44] <Sikth> Im on a different computer now. Any help?
[05:44] <seedking> ia32-crossover-pro_7.0.2-1_amd64 hmm that not work either
[05:44] <seedking> cause ia32
[05:45] <seedking> who have a 64 bit version for me ?
[05:45] <susanowo> you can't use 32bit libraries?
[05:45] <seedking> nope
[05:45] <susanowo> that is unfortunate
[05:45] <AbhiJit> seedking, i am using 64 bit ubuntu
[05:45] <seedking> me 2
[05:45] <seedking> best thing to use with 5 GB DDR2 pc-8500
[05:46] <jtrag> you can use 32 bit apps in 64 bit ubuntu just fine
[05:46] <jtrag> just make sure you install the proper packages
[05:46] <seedking> well apparentley not this one
[05:46] <Loshki> gaelfx: I can't find a channel dedicated to pulseaudio. Try your question here...
[05:49] <susanowo> .
[05:49] <infid> is mutt still big or has anything replaced it?
[05:50] <blakkheim> mutt is good, i like alpine as an alternative
[05:51] <infid> why do mutt and alpine want to create a folder called ~/mail? i have my mailbox as ~/MailDir
[05:54] <blakkheim> i'm sure you could change it before compiling them
[05:54] <blakkheim> or you could use a symbolic link
[05:54] <rww> or change your .muttrc.
[05:55] <AbhiJit> x0rs, ping
[05:55] <gaelfx> I am trying to make HDMI audio work, so I installed alsa backports to make Pulse recognize the device on my graphics card, but when I select the HDMI audio device, I still get no sound. If I select the alsa audio device in smplayer, audio works, but it doesn't work in any other applications. How can I get pulse to do what smplayer is doing, and do it for any application I want to use?
[05:55] <x0rs> ?
[05:56] <x0rs> AbhiJit: ?
[05:56] <AbhiJit> x0rs, a day or two before you were asking about ubuntu using so much battery?
[05:56] <x0rs> AbhiJit: Ahh yes
[05:56] <AbhiJit> x0rs, so what heppnd? issue solved?
[05:57] <x0rs> AbhiJit: well, it's hard to tell really... I haven't timed it, and the battery doesn't drain ridiculously fast in ubuntu. It just seems like it's an hour or two less than when I'm in XP
[05:57] <x0rs> AbhiJit: I did play with power settings to get options that would dim screen, etc... appropriately for when I am using just battery power
[05:57] <AbhiJit> x0rs, that day i was about to tell you and you left - but i also have expe that ubunt uses battery more than win does
[05:58] <x0rs> AbhiJit: It's satisfactory, just not spectacular
[05:58] <AbhiJit> ok
[05:58] <infid> my outgoing smtp server requires authentication. which values do i edit in /etc/postfix/main.cf for auth?

[05:59] <susanowo> su
[05:59] <infid> su -
[05:59] <lilpod> thanks
[05:59] <susanowo> but you need to put sudo in front of su
[06:00] <AbhiJit> :o
[06:00] <infid> why not just use sudo? you only have to enter your password once,t hen ti's remembered for 15 min
[06:00] <gaelfx> er, that's a little dangerous
[06:00] <infid> same thing but safer

[06:10] <vinaur> AbhiJit,  that's kinda the thing... i can't mount my partition, since I can't see it in /dev
[06:10] <AbhiJit> hmm
[06:11] <bookmark> sup
[06:12] <AbhiJit> 6 days1
[06:12] <glebihan> Rotham: just type "PATH=$PATH:~/dmd/bin:/path/to/dmd/bin", add it to your .bashrc if you want it permanent
[06:13] <Rotham> ok cool thanks... just add it anywhere in bashrc?
[06:13] <glebihan> Rotham: yes
[06:15] <juk> Why when I save rate 75 in nvidia x server settings, after restart it again shows 60???
[06:17] <juk> Screen flaming, help
[06:18] <vinaur> AbhiJit, got it! they were marked as inactive volumes. I activated them and now i can see them

[06:18] <AbhiJit> :P
[06:19] <susanowo> [D
[06:21] <Snakkah> Just curious...what would you say is the best filesystem for running Ubuntu on a USB flash drive (I've done it before with ext4 with a lot of success, but looking at other options).
[06:21] <Gnea> I'd probably go without a journal - ext2
[06:22] <Snakkah> Why no journaling?
[06:22] <juk> Why when I save rate 75 in nvidia x server settings, after restart it again shows 60???
[06:22] <Gnea> less usage
[06:22] <Snakkah> Hm okay.
[06:23] <x_2> juk you use xchat?
[06:23] <juk> x_2: irssi
[06:23] <Gnea> fat would be best, but it doesn't support permissions, so it wouldn't work
[06:23] <x_2> good
[06:23] <x_2> xchat users are all getting rooted through freenode
[06:24] <juk> x_2: you know anything about nvidia settings?
[06:24] <x_2> ya
[06:24] <x_2> i use em
[06:24] <x_2> i run nvidea'
[06:24] <juk> x_2: any idea why it won't save settings after reboot
[06:25] <x_2> you install throuh hardware drivers?
[06:25] <ridin> x_2: what do you mean rooted through freenode?
[06:25] <x_2> owned

[06:30] <Gnea> for sure sign that you're pulling our legs
[06:30] <x_2> no
[06:30] <Gnea> since clearly you don't know what 'rooted' means
[06:30] <x_2> huh?
[06:30] <glebihan> x_2: please take this somewhere else, it's offtopic here
[06:31] <linux_probe> there is / was windows 0-days in xchat2
[06:31] <x_2> Gnea i do clearly no what rooted is
[06:31] <linux_probe> none in linux that i know of
[06:31] <Gnea> which wouldn't affect us
[06:31] <x_2> do not talk to me like that please
[06:31] <x_2> thnx

[06:32] <x_2> im just letn people no
[06:32] <x_2> thats no crime
[06:32] <glebihan> x_2: that's not the place
[06:32] <x_2> so listen to me when i say
[06:32] <x_2> maybe nbot
[06:32] <x_2> maybe not*
[06:32] <x_2> but im just saying
[06:32] <x_2> thats all
[06:33] <glebihan> x_2: we heard you, now please stop
[06:33]  * Gnea knows that know != no and that this conversation ends now.
[06:34] <x_2> glebihan if i rape france will you ignore it?
[06:34] <glebihan> !ops | x_2
[06:35] <AbhiJit> alskdjfs
[06:36] <maco> x_2: please keep on topic. the topic is ubuntu technical support
[06:39] <DrakkenWar> o7 gents. Anyone have any experience with Remmina with Crunchbang?
[06:41] <RedSingularity> ?
[06:41] <RedSingularity> Testing irssi.....anyone reading this?
[06:41] <glebihan> RedSingularity: yep
[06:42] <greppy> RedSingularity: nope! :)
[06:42] <RedSingularity> Lol thanks :)
[06:42] <DrakkenWar> irssi rocks once you muck it out
[06:43] <RedSingularity> Yeah i wanted to get used to a terminal based irc client
[06:45] <DrakkenWar> you picked a great one that is for sure, when I have some more time I will get back to irssi
[06:47] <mccrase90> so, i'm lost with this sound problem i have created
[06:48] <mccrase90> i don't have any hardware listed under sound preferences, is there a way to get my hw to show up?
[06:48] <infid> if i want to use ssmtp how do i disable postfix ?
[06:48] <infid> sudo service sendmail stop ?
[06:49] <infid> postfix stop, nm
[06:49] <bapa_> infid: I'm pretty sure that Apt disables any running daemons if you're about to uninstall them.
[06:51] <bapa> Or, you could just do ``/etc/init.d/postfix stop'' if you wanna do it manually.
[06:52] <chiluk> I just wanted to say how happy I am with maverick at the moment.  I had a number of bugs, but they slowly seem to have disappeared.
[06:54] <UnGato> hi, is there anyone who could help me with a doubt in bind9?
[06:55] <sebsebseb> Hi
[06:58]  * glebihan has rarely seen this channel that quiet...
[06:59] <UnGato> well, i'll be back later
[06:59] <rabbit_kan> hi is anyone ever used wine to run "cs-onlie" sucessfully? if so, can you teach me how?thank you!
[07:00] <plafon> hi, ive installed netbook ubuntu remix and id like to have the 3d effects availible (they are disabled in the options) any help? thanx.
[07:00] <glebihan> plafon: is compiz installed on your system ?
[07:00] <plafon> gllebihan: nope
[07:00] <plafon> but
[07:01] <plafon> i thought it wasnt necessary since the 3d effects were posible to run even without it (on desktop ubuntu)
[07:01] <glebihan> plafon: all 3d effects are handled by compiz
[07:01] <plafon> ok then
[07:01] <plafon> ill install compiz
[07:02] <plafon> also the netbook ubuntu seems to have a huge potencial, i like it so far
[07:03] <DrakkenWar> palfon. From what I understand of the toe netbook installs, compiz is a pia to get working as it's a frill left out from a lowend distro dirivitive
[07:03] <sebsebseb> plafon: ntebook version is getting quite the make over for 10.10
[07:03] <sebsebseb> netbook
[07:03] <plafon> make over? in what way?
[07:04] <sebsebseb> plafon: Unity a new interface
[07:04] <plafon> oh rly
[07:04] <plafon> seems nice
[07:04] <plafon> should i wait without compiz then?
[07:04] <DrakkenWar> the unity interface is bringing a lot the netbook venue, but compiz is still kind of a pipe dream
[07:04] <plafon> for 10.10
[07:04] <DrakkenWar> you can get it to work, but it's not easy
[07:05] <sebsebseb> plafon: now there are loads of nice distros that can run nicely on a netbook, but yeah I guess Unity is worth trying out,  and that will be released properly this Sunday when 10.10 comes out
[07:05] <plafon> kk
[07:05] <DrakkenWar> you will have to add the repo's manually
[07:06] <sebsebseb> DrakkenWar: no you don't, if installed from the netbook ISO
[07:06] <sebsebseb> DrakkenWar: for Unity I mean
[07:06] <plafon> how can i find out what my current version is with a command?
[07:06] <plafon> i think its the newest one anyway
[07:06] <sebsebseb> !release | plafon
[07:06] <sebsebseb> wrong factoid
[07:06] <sebsebseb> !version
[07:07] <plafon> oh thanx a lot
[07:07] <lucent> How can I verify that firewire is working without corruption issues?
[07:07] <sebsebseb> DrakkenWar: uh you could have said that no problem in the channel
[07:07] <sebsebseb> !pm > DrakkenWar
[07:08] <sebsebseb> DrakkenWar: as for Compiz it won't be that relivent soon when it comes to Gnome starting next year,  since it won't be compatible with Gnome 3
[07:09] <glebihan> sebsebseb: really ? any link about that ?
[07:10] <Kartagis> hey, is it a good idea to convert from .avi to .mp4 or .mkv to .mp4?
[07:10] <sebsebseb> glebihan: I expect there are at least a few,  and I mean with the new Gnome 3 look Gnome Shell, because of how it is made, but this is going a bit off topic now as well
[07:11] <sebsebseb> Kartagis: uhmm good question
[07:11] <glebihan> sebsebseb: that's why I asked for an external link :) thanks anyway
[07:11] <Kubuntiac> Anyone know of any way to just install every latin font in the repo's without manually reading every description (there's hundreds!)
[07:11] <sebsebseb> Kartagis: why do you want to?
[07:11] <gaelfx> Kartagis: it's not something I would do personally, as it tends to kinda bonk the quality more
[07:12] <Loshki> Kartagis: It's not a good idea. All of these are compression schemes which are lossy, which means every time you do almost any conversion, you *lose* quality. Never convert unless you have to....
[07:12] <sebsebseb> Kubuntiac: also all of those formats are propritayr formats, so not much point really
[07:12] <gaelfx> Kartagis: but I'm sure it's accomlishable with vlc or some other such software
[07:12] <Kubuntiac> sebsebseb: Ok, well every open licensed, latin font
[07:12] <sebsebseb> Kubuntiac: no messaged you by mistake there
[07:12] <Kubuntiac> lol
[07:13] <sebsebseb> Kartagis: also all of those formats are propritary formats, so not much point really
[07:13] <glebihan> Kubuntiac: you can use regular expressions with apt-get, may help you
[07:13] <x-izzy> HI I need help i registered on ccpower but now don't know how to log in
[07:14] <Kartagis> Loshki I have to, because .mp4 is the only format my phone can read
[07:14] <sebsebseb> Kartagis: ok that is a reason to convert
[07:15] <sebsebseb> Kartagis: however another reason people tend to do it is, because they want in a open format
[07:15] <sebsebseb> !formats
[07:15] <sebsebseb> !avi
[07:15] <x-izzy> ANYBODY TO HELP?
[07:15] <lilpod> Hi, I installed wireshark and there is no network interface availiable to it when there should be some, does anyone know why this is the case?
[07:15] <sebsebseb> x-izzy: a what?
[07:15] <rww> !ot | x-izzy
[07:15] <Kartagis> !ask | x-izzy
[07:16] <lilpod> !wireshark
[07:17] <x-izzy> i have a user name on crimeirc but don't remember how to log in
[07:17] <sebsebseb> x-izzy: this is completly the wrong channel for that
[07:20] <kneaux> I'm having composition issues with Indic (specifically Hindi) text in Google Earth (I have character support but not composition support, only in GE), is there a solution available?
[07:20] <infid> when sending mail with the mail(1) command-line tool, how do you specify your 'From:' address, eg your isp's address?
[07:21] <glebihan> infid: use the -a option to set additional headers (such as From)
[07:21] <infid> thanks
[07:26] <FunkyDude> anyone know how to install a .bin file? I'm trying to install google earth
[07:26] <Gnea> FunkyDude: don't.
[07:26] <|ns|nR8> I set monitor refresh rate to 85hz with nvidia-settings, works fine. After reboot it reverts back to 60hz. Any ideas why? Here is my xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/sdGuJ96P
[07:26] <sebsebseb> !earth | FunkyDude
[07:27] <dstryr> I'm trying to configure Samba to make all my shared folders password protected...can anyone help? It was working but now I can just browse the folders without passwords required
[07:27] <Gnea> !medibuntu | FunkyDude
[07:27] <sebsebseb> Gnea: Why since he can maybe see  where you  live on it?  If he knew where that was
[07:27] <AndroUser2> sudo apt-get install google-earth
[07:27] <Gnea> sebsebseb: like he'd be able to do anything about it
[07:27] <Lychaeus> hey guys, anyone got a minute to help me out?
[07:27] <plafon> Lychaeus: ask a question directly
[07:28] <glebihan> !ask | Lychaeus
[07:28] <Gnea> Lychaeus: it doesn't work like that. just state your question.
[07:28] <icarus-c> dstryr, use "user" mode
[07:28] <plafon> :D
[07:28] <sebsebseb> watch out Gnea Google may be spying on you :D
[07:28] <dstryr> icarus-c, what do you mean?
[07:28] <Lychaeus> kk, sorry about that.
[07:28] <icarus-c> dstryr, you know,  "security = user"
[07:28] <Gnea> sebsebseb: more likely on you than me ;)
[07:28] <dstryr> im very new to linux
[07:28] <Lychaeus> im very new to ubuntu, and i just installed it with the live cd.
[07:28] <Lychaeus> on my laptop.
[07:29] <dstryr> what do you mean by security = user? can you explain more?
[07:29] <dstryr> i tried searching online but couldnt find the solution
[07:29] <icarus-c> dstryr, read samba doc...
[07:29] <Gnea> !samba
[07:29] <dstryr> It was working like 5 minutes ago
[07:29] <dstryr> id try and view a folder from windows and it would ask me to login
[07:29] <FunkyDude> AndroUser2, i tried what you said and it seemed to install, but where did it go? the terminal screen just disappeared
[07:29] <dstryr> now for some reason i just gain access no matter what
[07:30] <dstryr> no authentication required
[07:30] <Gnea> dstryr: do you want users to access your system via windows networking with or without a login?
[07:30] <icarus-c> dstryr, http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/ServerType.html#id2559114
[07:30] <dstryr> with login
[07:30] <Lychaeus> i think its installed when i choose between ubuntu and win xp, i then choose Ubuntu Linux 2.6.32-24 Generic
[07:30] <dstryr> I need it to make them login to view the folders
[07:30] <Gnea> dstryr: then keep it as 'user'
[07:30] <Lychaeus> and then it takes me to a command prompt after i login, i dont understand what to do next.
[07:30] <dstryr> ive assigned users in the system and in samba
[07:30] <Hydrozii> anybody here play minecraft?
[07:30] <Lychaeus> i do hydro.
[07:30] <dstryr> oh
[07:31] <dstryr> i have to edit the conf file
[07:31] <icarus-c> dstryr, look, there are some security mode,  like  "share" , "user"    when you use share,  no authentication needed, with "user" , login required
[07:31] <icarus-c> dstryr, yea since you want global,  put security = user  in [globa] section
[07:31] <Hydrozii> have you done any changing textures and playing other peoples saved files?
[07:31] <icarus-c> dstryr, i guess there is "security = share" there already
[07:31] <glebihan> Lychaeus: what version of ubuntu did you install ?
[07:31] <Lychaeus> 10.4 i believe
[07:32] <Lychaeus> the lastest one
[07:32] <glebihan> Lychaeus: desktop edition, right ?
[07:32] <rww> Hydrozii: try #minecraft, or #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:32] <Lychaeus> err maybe not hold on.
[07:32] <Hydrozii> alright
[07:32] <dstryr> there is no option for "security = xxxx" in the global section of my .conf
[07:32] <Hydrozii> the official minecraft channel ignores me :(
[07:33] <dstryr> ####### Authentication #######
[07:33] <dstryr> # "security = user" is always a good idea. This will require a Unix account
[07:33] <dstryr> # in this server for every user accessing the server. See
[07:33] <dstryr> # /usr/share/doc/samba-doc/htmldocs/Samba3-HOWTO/ServerType.html
[07:33] <dstryr> # in the samba-doc package for details.
[07:33] <FloodBot1> dstryr: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:33] <Hydrozii> i was gonna ask how to change texture packs and play other peoples saves on ubuntu
[07:33] <dstryr> #   security = user
[07:34] <dstryr> hmm
[07:34] <dstryr> all the security options are set to user
[07:34] <sebsebseb> dstryr: what are you trying to do exactly? use samba to do what?
[07:34] <dstryr> and it still doesnt make me enter login information to access shared folder
[07:34] <icarus-c> dstryr, dude they are commented out
[07:34] <Kartagis> is libavcodec a video or an audio codec?
[07:34] <dstryr> im using ubuntu as a file server basically
[07:34] <sebsebseb> !samba
[07:34] <dstryr> I want only certain users to beable to login to take and edit files
[07:35] <icarus-c> Kartagis, "av"  so both
[07:35] <dstryr> am i supposed to remove the # infront of the command in the config file?
[07:35] <icarus-c> dstryr, yes..
[07:35] <sebsebseb> dstryr: right well like icarus-c was saying they are commented out,  thats a start knowing what that means, if you aren't sure :)
[07:35] <dstryr> lol
[07:35] <dstryr> wow i feel dumb
[07:35] <icarus-c> dstryr, anything after "#"  are comments, they are ignored
[07:36] <sebsebseb> disturbedmime: config files are a bit like programs in a way, and so they have comments # ##
[07:36] <dstryr> what about ;
[07:36] <cyberdo> mouse cursor hangs in 10.10... seems to be related with either media or sound
[07:36] <Lychaeus> is ubuntu.com down for anyone else?
[07:36] <cyberdo> or rather: the left click stops working
[07:36] <cyberdo> has anyone had this problem?
[07:36] <sebsebseb> disturbedmime: after # can put basically put any text, and it won't be used, it just readable text nothing else
[07:36] <collosi> Lychaeus: up for me
[07:37] <cyberdo> sebsebseb: worksforme
[07:37] <sebsebseb> dstryr: however sometimes,  you would want to uncomment something for useage, then you would remove the #
[07:37] <rww> Lychaeus: works for me, though it's slow
[07:37] <sebsebseb> cyberdo: wrong person
[07:37] <cyberdo> Lychaeus: worksforme
[07:37] <dstryr> i think i read that if you change something in the config file
[07:37] <dstryr> you have to reboot samba?
[07:37] <Lychaeus> kk, yes i have desktop edition.
[07:37] <Lychaeus> but when i boot it, it goes to a command prompt
[07:37] <icarus-c> dstryr, same
[07:37] <Lychaeus> not a desktop
[07:37] <Gnea> Lychaeus: works fine here
[07:37] <dstryr> how do you reboot just samba ? and not the computer?
[07:38] <icarus-c> dstryr, i think default smb.conf clearly explain  comment in the beginning of the file
[07:38] <Gnea> dstryr: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[07:38] <sebsebseb> dstryr: file server? most people just use Samba to share some files with WIndows, and thats that, as far as I know, but your wanting to do something a bit differnet,  so if you don't get very far in here,  I would suggest reading up about Samba for what you want to do
[07:39] <dstryr> well maybe you guys could suggest a better solution
[07:39] <Lychaeus> isnt ubuntu desktop supposed to boot to a desktop? not a full screen command prompt?
[07:39] <dstryr> i have 10 windows computers and this ubuntu computer
[07:39] <dstryr> i need all the windows computers to use the ubuntu computer for storage
[07:39] <Gnea> dstryr: samba is fine for non-windows as well, but perhaps your objective isn't clear
[07:39] <dstryr> i dont want anything on the windows computers
[07:39] <lucent> I need to find help, from someone familiar with kernel driver troubleshooting?
[07:40] <Gnea> lucent: #linux is a good place to start
[07:40] <icarus-c> dmesg?
[07:40] <dstryr> that way everyone can access the same files
[07:40] <lucent> Gnea: I think it may be Ubuntu specific, it is about the new firewire stack causing problems with one of my adapters... but I'm stuck and not getting anywhere on the mail lists
[07:41] <Gnea> dstryr: your best bet is to start by installing SWAT and configuring it with a web browser. all of the options can therefore be explained in great detail that way in a neat and orderly manner.
[07:41] <collosi> Lychaeus: what happens when you type gdm
[07:41] <Gnea> lucent: I see... have you pastebin'd the output of the dmesg command?
[07:41] <lucent> Gnea: there is no output, no one will help me without output
[07:41]  * ph0n7r1c hi guys whats the command for viewing hardware information like version and maker
[07:42] <lucent> I don't know how to get debug output from firewire
[07:42] <infid> my isp's outgoing port is 465. how do i tell ssmtp that?
[07:42] <Lychaeus> 1 minute collosi
[07:42] <Gnea> lucent: I find it impossible that there is no output from the dmesg command.
[07:42] <lucent> the errors show up in other layers that run on top of firewire (disk storage, ffado audio...)
[07:42] <Lychaeus> do i need to install it with wibi?
[07:42] <Gnea> lucent: how are you running it?
[07:42] <Lychaeus> or just the live cd?
[07:42] <Lychaeus> to dual boot
[07:42] <Lychaeus> wubi*
[07:42] <lucent> how am I running...  my computer?   nothing special, it's just that there's no firewire errors I can find to report on
[07:43] <Gnea> lucent: no, the dmesg command.
[07:43] <lucent> 'dmesg -c' then do stuff, errors happen, 'dmesg'
[07:43] <Teemukin65> ph0n7r1c: try lshw
[07:43] <dstryr> Gnea, all the security commands in that file are uncommented and say security=user etc
[07:43] <dstryr> and i can still access the folders via windows without login
[07:43] <Gnea> lucent: I'm going to make this as easy as I can for you, okay?
[07:43] <lucent> all the errors are higher layers and nothing firewire that I can see
[07:43] <lucent> so what do I do to watch firewire for errors and debug info?
[07:44] <Gnea> lucent: open a terminal, and type the following please:  sudo apt-get install pastebinit && dmesg | pastebinit
[07:44] <Gnea> lucent: then display the resulting URL here, please.
[07:44] <collosi> Lychaeus: it's up to you, both work
[07:44] <asdff> hi
[07:44] <Gnea> lucent: you're asking the wrong questions, please perform the requested tasks and we will try to find them.
[07:44] <lucent> Gnea: thanks for helping, first, how do I reproduce problems without having to use a storage device on the firewire bus?
[07:45] <Lychaeus> k i reinstalled it, one second.
[07:45] <Gnea> lucent: I can't answer that at this time.
[07:45] <icarus-c> dstryr, how do you share folders in the first place
[07:45]  * ph0n7r1c does lshw mean list hardware
[07:45] <lucent> hmm... can I prevent Ubuntu from auto-mounting the volume? that's what's destroying my data
[07:45] <asdff> what is the link for login to SQL panel through php
[07:45] <asdff> ?
[07:45] <Gnea> lucent: if you can't help me, I can't help you.
[07:45] <Gnea> sorry, that's just how it is.
[07:45] <icarus-c> dstryr, specify by smb.conf ? or usershare
[07:46] <lucent> Gnea: when I insert a storage device to reproduce the problem, it auto-mounts and the filesystem goes corrupted
[07:46] <Gnea> lucent: you're making this difficult and you don't need to.
[07:46] <lucent> sorry about that, I don't enjoy losing my data
[07:46] <Gnea> lucent: well, you're not paying any attention to me, so from this point on, I don't see the need to pay attention to you.
[07:46] <asdff> what is the link for login to SQL panel through php ?
[07:46] <Gnea> lucent: I understand that, but I really don't enjoy someone that can't follow simple directions in the heat of the moment.
[07:47] <collosi> Lychaeus: you're usind wubi correct?
[07:47] <Gnea> if you want the problem fixed, let's fix it, don't ask me questions I don't know the answers to yet.
[07:47] <lucent> Gnea: uh... right I appreciate your time, but you're being difficult yourself
[07:47] <Lychaeus> i did not use wubi.
[07:47] <Gnea> !pm | dstryr
[07:47] <Lychaeus> i used the live cd, and did the dual boot option.
[07:47] <lucent> Gnea: do you want a dmesg without reproducing the problem?
[07:47] <lucent> I didn't see what good that would do
[07:48] <Gnea> lucent: at this point, yes please, and then we'll go from there.
[07:48] <collosi> Lychaeus: you using the live CD now?
[07:48] <Lychaeus> yes, i installed it through windows. and now im "copying files" after rebooting.
[07:48] <Gnea> lucent: it's called "step 1 of the troubleshooting process"
[07:48] <Gnea> I don't have time to explain it all at this time, just one step at a time.
[07:49]  * ph0n7r1c is there are way of run a script before the login screen shows up
[07:49] <lucent> you have time enough to patronize me.  Not okay.
[07:49] <Lychaeus> i could not use "normal mode" i had to use "safe video" sorry forgot the actual name.
[07:49] <veegee> hey all this has nothing to do with linux, but
[07:49] <Gnea> lucent: I know when I've been trolled.
[07:49] <rww> !ot | veegee
[07:49] <Lychaeus> if i used normal mode i just got a black screen after the ubuntu screen
[07:49] <veegee> u gotta be kidding
[07:50] <collosi> Lychaeus:  sure try safe video, see if that will load of gdm
[07:50] <Gnea> veegee: please stick to the topic of Ubuntu, we don't need useless bantering here, kthx
[07:50] <Lychaeus> kk still copying files.
[07:50] <glebihan> ph0n7r1c: don't use "/me" to ask questions
[07:50] <ph0n7r1c> ok
[07:50] <Esat> how can i install a tar.gz file ?
[07:50] <dstryr> Gnea, when you are done helping this guy can you help me work through the problem i'm having? I'll wait until you are done
[07:50] <aL3x_> the price of free tech support is to do things the way the person helping you wants them done
[07:50] <Gnea> dstryr: oh I'm done, what's up?
[07:50] <ph0n7r1c> how can you run a script before the login screen please
[07:51] <seidos> Esat, you need to unzip/untar the file tar xvvf tarfile
[07:51] <lucent> alexlea: point taken. :)
[07:51] <icarus-c> Esat, tar.gz is just a file archive (think of .zip / .rar)
[07:51] <rob_p> infid: How's the project coming along?
[07:51] <dstryr> stil trying to get the folder passord protected over the network
[07:51] <Esat> seidos, i did that,
[07:51] <collosi> phon7r1c:  you can use the startup applications and run the script from there
[07:51] <icarus-c> Esat, what sort of things are in the tar.gz
[07:51] <dstryr> Gnea, it was working like 10 minutes ago ...now all of a sudden it doesnt ask for user or password when accessing from windows
[07:52] <Gnea> dstryr: okay, so what changed?
[07:52] <dstryr> Gnea, I have no clue man
[07:52] <lucent> dstryr: I think that's more of a Windows-specific question, Ubuntu side might be unchanged
[07:52] <Gnea> dstryr: did you run an upgrade?
[07:52] <collosi> ph0n7r1c:  what are you trying to run?
[07:52] <dstryr> nope
[07:52] <Gnea> dstryr: can you pastebin your smb.conf please?
[07:52] <lucent> dstryr: try the 'net' command from Windows cmd console, and seek help how to use that to forget the net password and username so you can re-enter it?
[07:52] <dstryr> maybe windows is storing the password and user name and not showing
[07:52] <Lychaeus> is there a known video issue with a dell latititude d505 booting to black screen in normal mode?
[07:52] <ph0n7r1c> i want to run certain scripts before i login to my system as root
[07:52] <seidos> Esat, well, is it source code?  then ./configure make sudo make install
[07:52] <icarus-c> dstryr, if you didn't change any bit on the serve side, i guess it is windows client store login credentials?
[07:53] <dstryr> how do i check if it stores the login?
[07:53] <Gnea> dstryr: try rebooting a windows client then
[07:53] <dstryr> or how do i clear it
[07:53] <icarus-c> dstryr, ask in ##windows
[07:53] <dstryr> lol
[07:53]  * icarus-c doesn't use Windows
[07:53] <glebihan> ph0n7r1c: you could use upstart scripts
[07:53] <lucent> dstryr: asking a windows guru might be wise at this point, particularly about the 'net' command I mentioned above
[07:53] <Gnea> dstryr: #samba is a good place to ask as well
[07:53] <collosi> Lychaeus:  what is your xorg log output?
[07:53] <dstryr> i tried samba
[07:53] <dstryr> noone answered :/
[07:53] <Gnea> they tend to idle a lot
[07:53] <Lychaeus> above my head collosi. lol
[07:53] <Esat> seidos , yes it is source code
[07:54] <dstryr> im gonna try to reboot my windows computer and see if it asks for login again
[07:54] <Gnea> but they can be helpful once they answer
[07:54] <Gnea> okay
[07:54] <dstryr> is there another option for making a file server for a bunch of computers?
[07:54] <seidos> Esat, then "./configure" "make" "sudo make install"
[07:54] <dstryr> (all windows based)?
[07:54] <dstryr> a better program i mean
[07:54] <Gnea> dstryr: it depends if you want them to be workgroup or domain based
[07:54] <Esat> seidos, are these two different commands?
[07:54] <seidos> Esat, three
[07:54] <Gnea> dstryr: I prefer SWAT
[07:54] <ph0n7r1c> cause i have a problem with my ubuntu i borught a new laptop and have it runing but when i go to shutdown it freezys on me and i have to press the power botton to kill it when it starts up again some how the session was messed up the last time so the system is a little unstable
[07:55] <dstryr> it doesnt really matter....because i dont know the difference
[07:55] <lucent> Gnea: http://pastebin.com/XBJ1JGrK   and FYI the last series of messages in the output is result of inserting the troublesome firewire card and it being accepted
[07:55] <Esat> seidos,  ok
[07:55]  * icarus-c suggests  "./configure --prefix=$HOME/.local   && make && make install " instead
[07:55] <Esat> configure
[07:55] <dstryr> Gnea, doesnt matter about the domain or workgroup
[07:55] <lucent> no errors are supposed to be meaningful in that text, I haven't reproduced the problem yet
[07:55] <dstryr> i dont know the difference or advantages between the two
[07:55] <Gnea> dstryr: okay, then yeah, I'd get swat installed and running first
[07:55] <dstryr> ;p
[07:55] <collosi> Lychaeus:  run this in the terminal  #cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[07:55] <ph0n7r1c> so i was thinking of writting a simple check script to fix this during startup
[07:56] <Esat> seidos, configure: error: cannot find install-sh or install.sh in "." "./.."
[07:56] <dstryr> i have swat installed
[07:56] <dstryr> im trying to figure out how to run it ;x doh
[07:56] <collosi> Lychaeus:  what you really want to do is post that file, so someone can take a look at it
[07:56] <icarus-c> Esat, is there a autorun.sh  ?
[07:56] <ph0n7r1c> cause the system was not probaly shutdown it messed some files
[07:56] <Esat> icarus-c,  there are many files here
[07:57] <glebihan> ph0n7r1c: maybe the best option would be trying to fix the issue rather than finding a workaround
[07:57] <ph0n7r1c> upstart script is a file or program
[07:57] <Gnea> dstryr: ah, make sure you have openbsd-inetd installed and make sure that /etc/inetd.conf has a line in it for swat to run
[07:57] <dstryr> hmm
[07:57] <dstryr> well it looks like reboot the windows computer made it ask for login again
[07:57] <Lychaeus> nothing happens when i type that Collosi
[07:57] <icarus-c> Esat, so is there a autorun.sh ? or a INSTALL  file?
[07:57] <icarus-c> or README
[07:57] <ph0n7r1c> because its a new computer it has ubuntu has not got the fixes for it yet
[07:57] <dstryr> gnea, do you think we could chat pm? chatroom is hard to keep up with
[07:58] <ph0n7r1c> the model was release a few months ago
[07:58] <Esat> yes, there is a readme.txt file
[07:58] <seidos> Esat, there could be a .bin file that you are supposed to just execute.  what is the tar file of?
[07:58] <collosi> Lychaeus:  what about #dmesg
[07:58] <icarus-c> Esat, read it then
[07:58] <ph0n7r1c> it was only designed for windows 7 and we all know how dum windows are
[07:58] <Lychaeus> nothing again
[07:58] <mamooth> hi there
[07:58] <Gnea> dstryr: it's actually better this way, so that others can join in, plus I can help 2 people at once this way. just pay attention to nick highlighting.
[07:58] <infid> rob_p: well now i'm just trying to use ssmtp to send a message and i have it mostly configured. but the mail.err log keeps saying '553 From address not verified' for some reason
[07:58] <dstryr> ok
[07:59] <collosi> ph0n7r1c:  try running your script in the startup application
[07:59] <Gnea> dstryr: or maybe they're having the same problem and can benefit
[07:59] <ph0n7r1c> even the lan drivers for it i had to manually install
[07:59] <Sunderphon> Any steam gamers in here having a problem running TF2 after the latest update? (wine)
[07:59] <icarus-c> Esat, i suppose the tarball comes with a install guide or from where you download it
[07:59] <Lychaeus> Collosi, mind if i send you a link to a pic ?
[07:59] <Gnea> lucent: have you been able to read the partition table?
[07:59] <collosi> Lychaeus: sure
[07:59] <infid> rob_p: i even tried  echo 'test' | mail -a 'From<EMAIL_ADDRESS>-s 'sending test'<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[07:59] <rob_p> infid: Gave up on Postfix?  I don't know ssmtp so I cannot advise.
[07:59] <dstryr> Gnea, openbsd-inetd is installed
[07:59] <dstryr> how do i add a line to the file to make sure it runs
[07:59] <dstryr> for swat
[07:59] <ph0n7r1c> the startup application runs after or before the loging program
[07:59] <infid> rob_p: postfix is more complicated though if i can figure out how to do it with ssmtp i can figure it out with postfix i'm sure
[08:00] <lucent> Gnea: of... the fubar filesystem?    I don't have anything connected at the moment, I was using firewire for data storage and also audio devices
[08:00] <Lychaeus> collosi http://imgur.com/IkBr6.jpg
[08:00] <Gnea> dstryr: well, look at the bottom of /etc/inetd.conf now, should be something there for it
[08:00] <collosi> ph0n7r1c: runs at login, so after login
[08:00] <rob_p> infid: Is there a way to force ssmtp to relay via your ISP's MTA?
[08:00] <Gnea> lucent: well, according to that dmesg output, it looks like you connected the firewire HDD
[08:00] <ph0n7r1c> but is the a way to run it before the login like during the checks
[08:00] <dstryr> gnea swat		stream	tcp	nowait.400	root	/usr/sbin/tcpd	/usr/sbin/swat
[08:00] <dstryr> looks right...
[08:01] <lucent> Gnea: I have a built-in ieee1394a chipset which works reliably, so....  yes that one is working but my expresscard based ieee1394b adapter (not connected) corrupted data
[08:01] <infid> rob_p: yeah and that's what i'm doing
[08:01] <ph0n7r1c> or just after the boot screean
[08:01] <Gnea> lucent: and I'm not seeing any errors. what I am seeing is that it is being setup correctly, so try this:  sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb
[08:01] <lucent> Gnea: sorry it's confusing because I didn't know why my data was disappeared when it happened last week, now is much different
[08:02] <Esat> icarus-c, i know where the software downloaded, it is *.tar.gz file
[08:02] <infid> rob_p: i finally got it to authenticate the ssl part to my isp's smtp, but now it just keeps giving me this '553 From address not verified' stuff
[08:02] <collosi> Lychaeus: just for kicks try running #sudo gdm
[08:02] <Lychaeus> nothing
[08:02] <lucent> since then i've connected via the reliably operational firewire chipset, and zereo'ed and partitioned and made a new fs
[08:02] <Gnea> dstryr: alright, so now open a web browser (or tab) and go here:  http://localhost:901
[08:02] <Lychaeus> starts another justin@ubuntu
[08:02] <xbonesx> I know ive asked this before but whats the command to extract the contents of a tar.gz to a directory which requires super user privledges?
[08:03] <dstryr> okay
[08:03] <lucent> Gnea: http://pastebin.com/ZBqVrYvA
[08:03] <Gnea> lucent: understood, but we need to make sure that what's currently connected isn't having any problems along the way. if we find a problem, then we'll know why it happened and can go about fixing it.
[08:03] <infid> xbonesx: sudo tar xzvf ?
[08:03] <xbonesx> infid: ok ill try it
[08:03] <dstryr> gnea, now what?
[08:04] <lucent> Gnea: okay, understood. I'm pretty confident that my firewire gear is working connected to the internal chipset like I have set up now
[08:04] <collosi> Lychaeus: try running #Xorg -configure
[08:04] <Gnea> dstryr: now click on the different sections at the top to see the shares, printers, etc - make sure it's all loading right
[08:04] <Lychaeus> nothing again
[08:04] <Lychaeus> starts another line
[08:04] <Gnea> lucent: if what I see is correct, you've connected a 1TB drive to it.
[08:04] <lucent> yep
[08:05] <icarus-c> Esat, does it come with a INSTALL guide
[08:05] <collosi> Lychaeus: no errors?
[08:05] <dstryr> gnea, okay ....
[08:05] <rob_p> infid: Looks like that status code refers to invalid recipient address.  Are you sure you are sending to a valid e-mail address?
[08:05] <Lychaeus> no errors, just starts another Justin@ubuntu line
[08:05] <lucent> no meaningful data on it at the moment, since the debacle last week killed the fs and I put a new ext3 system on it
[08:05] <Gnea> lucent: I'm going to guess that this drive was formatted with a mac?
[08:05] <Esat> icarus-c,  not, just readme file
[08:05] <lucent> Gnea: why a mac?
[08:06] <Gnea> lucent: based on the filesystem type. that's not ext3.
[08:06] <lucent> Gnea: it's GPT so uh, did you want a listing from parted?
[08:06] <icarus-c> Esat, does it tell any clue
[08:06] <collosi> Lychaeus:  ok, what about this #cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:06] <Gnea> dstryr: so now, go to your base configuration and switch from 'basic' to 'advanced'
[08:07] <Esat> no, it is just about software, dont explain how it install
[08:07] <dstryr> gnea, i think i am not in the right stop
[08:07] <dstryr> all i have are "home, status, view, password at the top of the localhost page
[08:07] <Lychaeus> same thing
[08:07] <Lychaeus> doesnt do anything
[08:07] <Gnea> lucent: does parted actually list anything? just an FYI, GPT can't hold an ext3 filesystem because it's 'ee', not '82'
[08:07] <infid> rob_p: 100% sure it's a valid email address
[08:07] <dstryr> gnea, nothing about advanced or basic settings
[08:07] <infid> rob_p: it's my gmail address that i use all the time
[08:08] <Gnea> dstryr: does it ever ask for a user/pass?
[08:08] <collosi> Lychaeus:  what other OS's are installed?  Is this a laptop?
[08:08] <lucent> Gnea: oh, I guess you're not familiar with GPT yet.
[08:08] <dstryr> yes
[08:08] <dstryr> i logged in
[08:08] <Gnea> lucent: which is why I asked what created it
[08:08] <lucent> Gnea: I used parted ?
[08:09] <Gnea> lucent: give it a shot
[08:09] <dstryr> gnea, yeah i logged in with the admin account
[08:09] <dstryr> nothing about advanced or basic
[08:09] <rob_p> infid: Yeah, I was just making sure you didn't, "fat-finger" the address when you typed it!  :-)
[08:09] <Lychaeus> yes its a laptop, windows XP/.
[08:09] <Sacha> hello ! I have installed ubuntu on a computer, but it freezes randomly, I can't find any clue to understand why. Can you help me ? Can tell what kind of card I got, and other stuff...
[08:09] <lucent> Gnea:  sudo parted /dev/sdb print | pastebinit -a lucent   # http://pastebin.com/BmFA0f2x
[08:10] <Lychaeus> collosi: http://imgur.com/8LLk9.jpg
[08:10] <Lychaeus> just so you can see what im doing
[08:10] <lucent> Sacha: how much RAM memory?
[08:10] <Sacha> 2Gb
[08:10] <Sacha> as swap
[08:10] <Esat> seidos,  and icarus-c  thank for your hepling, i found explanation
[08:10] <lucent> oh hmm...  also, what brand of computer is it?  something like a Dell or another brand?
[08:10] <Sacha> Oh, no, I put 3 GB swap
[08:10] <infid> rob_p: yea i triple checked. man this blows. it's 2010 and i can't even send a simple email after hours and hours :/
[08:11] <icarus-c> Sacha, so how much physical RAM you have got
[08:11] <lucent> Sacha: I was asking about RAM, like the sticks of RAM
[08:11] <Gnea> lucent: yeah, I'm a bit unfamiliar with that sort of layout, so I'm wondering if you can fsck it
[08:11] <infid> and what's really sad is i have over a decade of unix experience, and have set up sendmail and postfix years ago successfully
[08:11] <collosi> Lycheaus:  you are sure you are installing the desktop edition?
[08:11] <Padhu> giver will not detect remote machine over intra net
[08:11] <infid> but because i rarely ever use anythin but web mail i cant get this simple stuff working :P
[08:11] <Sacha> 2Gb ram, 3 GB swap
[08:11] <Lychaeus> yes. im mostly sure.
[08:11] <Lychaeus> ill check again
[08:11] <ph0n7r1c> its the a laptop addtion
[08:11] <Gnea> infid: you can thank the spammers for that one
[08:11] <Padhu> How can i correct it?
[08:11] <lucent> Gnea: GPT is *the* recommended partitioning scheme for volumes 500GB and larger capacity, so uh... side note you might want to read up about it sometime
[08:12] <lucent> no big deal, it's just used by every OS
[08:12] <Gnea> lucent: I tend to not use those, since 1TB drives tend to have an inherit hardware flaw which limits their life expectancy quite considerably compared to lesser sized drives.
[08:13] <lucent> uh huh.
[08:13] <Gnea> lucent: so anyway, sudo fsck.ext3 /dev/sdb1
[08:14] <icarus-c> 2x500GB RAID0 works better :P
[08:14] <lucent> Gnea: presuming you'd like me to unmount it first
[08:14] <Gnea> if it's hardware raid, yes.
[08:14] <lucent> Ubuntu auto-mounted it
[08:14] <Gnea> lucent: that would be extremely helpful, yes.
[08:14] <lucent> ESportB10: clean, 11/61054976 files, 3883124/244190637 blocks
[08:14] <collosi> Lycheaus:  your windows partition is fine correct?  I would try to install again
[08:15] <rob_p> infid: I think I *may* know what's going on.  It's probably an anti-spam tactic used by your ISP's MTA.    However, many ISPs are now checking the, 'from address' and if it doesn't match the user whom you authenticated as, you will get that rejection message.
[08:15] <ravenwood> What is (<unknown>:4893): Gdk-WARNING **: XID collision, trouble ahead?
[08:15] <Gnea> lucent: alright, good to remount then
[08:15] <infid> rob_p: hahahahha i got it working through brute force!
[08:15] <lucent> Gnea: done
[08:15] <Gnea> lucent: how much data are we talking?
[08:15] <collosi> Lychaeus: when you install are you leaving all the setting as default?
[08:15] <rob_p> infid: Do tell...
[08:15] <infid> rob_p: i put rewriteDomain=yahoo.com even though my email is<EMAIL_ADDRESS>i figured i'd try all permutations since my smtp server is att.yahoo.com
[08:15] <lucent> Gnea: nothing right now, it was all lost last week...
[08:15] <Gnea> dstryr: did you find the correct tab?
[08:16] <Gnea> lucent: have you tried using foremost?
[08:16] <lucent> Gnea: negatory, that's new to me.  is foremost something you've got experience with?
[08:16] <Gnea> !info foremost
[08:16] <Lychaeus> Collosi, yes.
[08:16] <Gnea> lucent: it's worked quite well in the past.
[08:16] <rob_p> infid: I see.  Well, that sort of goes along with what I thought might be happening.
[08:17] <dstryr> Gnea, negative
[08:17] <lucent> Gnea: good to know, for the future.  As-is the drive has been zeroed and a fresh ext3 filesystem, so I am unconcerned about what's on it right now
[08:17] <infid> rob_p: thanks for all the help
[08:17] <Lychaeus> i downloaded ubuntu-10.04.1-desktop-i386
[08:17] <ravenwood> My terminal keeps spamming (<unknown>:4893): Gdk-WARNING **: XID collision, trouble ahead . I don't know if its talking about firefox which I ran from the terminal I lost firefox in a update somehow
[08:17] <Gnea> lucent: at what level did you zero it? just a basic format or did you actually do a dd=/dev/zero?
[08:17] <lucent> dd zero
[08:18] <Gnea> oh, foremost can get past that
[08:18] <Gnea> zeroing isn't really secure
[08:18] <Gnea> :)
[08:18] <ravenwood> Is my computer headed for a waterfall
[08:18] <icarus-c> dd if=/dev/zero of=......
[08:18] <ravenwood> or a pirate ship
[08:18] <rob_p> infid: You can thank the low-life spammers for all the headaches of spam filtering that has become a part of life for anyone who deals with e-mail delivery.  Anyway, glad I could help, even if only a little.  Take care.
[08:18] <Padhu> Giver will not detect remote machine, How can i correct this?
[08:18] <collosi> Lychaeus:  what does   #whois -r    output
[08:18] <Sacha> I tried to install 64b version, but it freezed, so I decide to install x86 version, but it's the same... Sometimes, I don't even have a console (accessed by hitting Ctrl+Alt+Fn)...
[08:19] <lucent> Gnea: ah, so you've used foremost to recover a dd zero'ed drive before?
[08:19] <collosi> Lychaeus: sorry #who -r
[08:19] <Gnea> lucent: sure
[08:19] <lucent> I find that improbable
[08:19] <Lychaeus> sec
[08:19] <hdon> hi all :) i read v4l2loopback.ko has been renamed webcamstudio.ko? is that true? where to get the latest source to build?
[08:19] <infid> rob_p: yeah bad guys make the internet harder to use everyday. imagine how simple it was in 1990, insecure as hell but simple :P
[08:20] <Gnea> lucent: you're free to think what you like
[08:20] <Lychaeus> nothing collosi
[08:20] <Lychaeus> same dam thing
[08:20] <lucent> hdon: I use this myself, it's a fork and not a rename to the best of my knowledge... see www.ws4gl.org
[08:20] <Lychaeus> starts new line
[08:20] <rww> Gnea: by "sure", do you mean that you personally have?
[08:20] <angelete2> hi
[08:20] <collosi> Lychaeus: something is seriously wrong with that install
[08:20] <sebsebseb> angelete2: hi
[08:20] <lucent> hdon: you will also need some other tricks to make it actually work with Flash that is distributed with Ubuntu, privmsg if you need help further
[08:20] <Lychaeus> hmm. ill try to redownload and burn it
[08:21] <angelete2> whenever i log through ssh to my server i get my welcome message twice
[08:21] <lucent> rww: Please help, I'm trying to filter out the bullcrap :)
[08:21] <rob_p> infid: I'm sure it was.  I didn't have regular/daily access to the 'Net until the summer of 1995.  But even then it was a much different place than it is now.
[08:21] <collosi> Lychaeus:  try re-installing, how many linux partitions are you creating?
[08:21] <Gnea> rww: yeah, wasn't easy
[08:21] <angelete2> how can i avoid this?
[08:21] <Lychaeus> just one i guess. im doing the dual boot on the live cd
[08:21] <Gnea> lucent: look, are you here to get help or to troll?
[08:21] <rww> Gnea: cool. I'll have to play with it sometime.
[08:22] <rob_p> infid: So now you just need to write a script to detect failed logins and have it run your one-liner to put an e-mail in your inbox!
[08:22] <infid> rob_p: already figured that out, thanks to multitail
[08:22] <Sacha> No one can help me ?
[08:22] <hdon> lucent, thanks. sent you a pm
[08:22] <sebsebseb> Sacha: uhmm
[08:22] <collosi> Lychaeus:  how big is the partition you are installing linux on?
[08:23] <sebsebseb> Sacha: Did you check that your ISO was ok?  or did you install from an offical CD?
[08:23] <Lychaeus> 20GB is what i choose when it asked on the live cd
[08:23] <collosi> Lychaeus:  what is the output of #sudo fdisk -l
[08:23] <Sacha> Both cd were correct (md5sums were OK), downloaded from ubuntu
[08:23] <angelete2> http://pastebin.com/tVcbFfbP here it is what i get anytime i log in
[08:23] <angelete2> any help?
[08:24] <sebsebseb> Sacha: and installling on to a computer with how much RAM?  and what king of graphics card even?
[08:24] <sebsebseb> Sacha: and which version of Ubuntu?
[08:24] <AnxiousNut> is it safe to $chmod -R 700 ~/ ?
[08:24] <rob_p> infid: I'm guessing that is a logfile analyzer of some sort.  Did you look into faillog?  It would seem that PAM can easily be configured to react to things like failed logins.  Perhaps you are already using it.  Anyway, lots of ways to accomplish the task.
[08:24] <angelete2> i've looked at /etc/motd and it only shows one, so what is the other file it's being added after motd?=
[08:24] <glebihan> angelete2: what is the issue ? there isn't any error messages there ?
[08:24] <rww> AnxiousNut: should be, unless you're doing something non-standard
[08:25] <Gnea> rww: the only problem is that it can be touch and go... if foremost can't get to that layer of the buffer of the disk reliably, then it's going to be locked out
[08:25] <glebihan> angelete2: oh sorry got it
[08:25] <Sacha> Last version of ubuntu (i386), graphic card is an ati 200 series, (in the motherboard), and got 2Gb of ram (check ok)
[08:25] <Gnea> rww: since zeroing just pushed most of the data into another ring
[08:25] <lj_> hgjgh
[08:26] <sebsebseb> Sacha: Have you used any previous verison on there?
[08:26] <Lychaeus> Collosi: i uninstalled it from windows, gonna try the netbook edititon
[08:26] <Gnea> lucent: so foremost might get it, and it might not. YMMV
[08:26] <corpsegrindr> Hi,When ever i try to access my media server, via ftp, sftp, ssh etc. the network connection on this pc quites working. I do not get a message saying it was disconnected and there is no error in dmesg. but the internet just quites working
[08:26] <collosi> Lychaeus:  alright, good luck!
[08:27] <andriy> wow! my first IRC chat :O
[08:27] <corpsegrindr> welcome
[08:27] <Sacha> Got 2 discks on this computer, one IDE, and one sata (1Tb), install ubuntu on the Sata one, tried to run it live, it worked... It's the first time I use ubuntu on this computer
[08:27] <sebsebseb> andriy: ok congratulations I guess
[08:27] <sebsebseb> Sacha: and it installed, and you boot up, and it wants commands?
[08:27] <angelete2> glebihan: /etc/issue has just Ununtu 10.04.1 LTS \n \1
[08:28] <Sacha> Sebsebseb : What you mean ? (fr)
[08:28] <andriy> how can i see commands for this?
[08:28] <sebsebseb> Sacha: you installed Ubuntu, and what was the problem again?
[08:28] <Sacha> The reboot was ok.
[08:28] <sebsebseb> andriy: you just type
[08:28] <sebsebseb> andriy: if you want support, just ask the question
[08:28] <Sacha> It freezes randomly.
[08:29] <infid> rob_p: i'll have to look into that. i dont seem to have anything in faillog for some reason
[08:29] <rww> Sacha: #ubuntu-fr exists, if you'd prefer to ask in French
[08:29] <sebsebseb> Sacha: no  Ubuntu isn't meant to freeze, but sure it would sometimes
[08:29] <xbonesx> infid: i tried that and it didnt work
[08:29] <lucent> Gnea: I must admit, you are helping me immensely
[08:29] <Sacha> And sometimes, just after boot, I can"t even have a console (Ctrl Alt Fnà
[08:29] <sebsebseb> Sacha: that could be, because of your hardware, or the version, or both
[08:29] <lucent> Gnea: I'm learning all kinds of impossible things are now possible because you say they may or may not work.
[08:30] <xbonesx> infid: http://paste.ubuntu.com/505577/
[08:30] <AbhiJit> !irc > andriy
[08:30] <andriy> ahh, i see. I have a quick question. Why does the OS use swap memory when physical memory is still available?
[08:30] <Gnea> lucent: life's funny that way sometimes
[08:30] <AbhiJit> !guidelines > andriy
[08:30] <rob_p> infid: That's because it's a data file.  Look at the size.  It's probably not 0.  But the info contained in it is probably useless until you tell PAM to start updating it.
[08:31] <sebsebseb> Sacha: 10.10 may work better on your computer, thats release this Sunday coming
[08:31] <Sacha> Hmm... I hope Next version will run, cause I can't stand my wife use Winthing...
[08:31] <sebsebseb> Sacha: the 10th
[08:31] <xbonesx> could someone tell me why this isnt working http://paste.ubuntu.com/505577/
[08:32] <rob_p> infid: You use the, "faillog" command to access the data in it.  I played around with it a little.
[08:32] <Sacha> Or else I'll install Debian (my favorite), but my wife and son will find it more difficult to understand and use...
[08:32] <Sacha> 6 days to wait... Sooo long...
[08:32] <sebsebseb> Sacha: or you could do something user friendly such as PC Linux OS :D
[08:32] <infid> xbonesx: idk then, sorry gotta go to bed
[08:32] <rob_p> infid: But again, you need to configure PAM for it to be useful.  May be more trouble than it's worth for you.
[08:32] <infid> rob_p: thanks
[08:33] <xbonesx> infid: ty anyways
[08:33] <seidos> xbonesx, read man tar while i investigate
[08:33] <Gnea> rww: pm?
[08:33] <xbonesx> seidos: ok
[08:33] <Sacha> Sebsebseb : Not so easy, My son use to play on winthing...
[08:33] <rob_p> infid: welcome
[08:33] <rww> Gnea: can't, I'm about to go to sleep
[08:33] <Gnea> rww: okay
[08:34] <dstryr> no wonder i want to learn ubuntu better...the windows chat sucks lol
[08:34] <sebsebseb> Sacha: loads of distros that are user friendly, and good alternatives to WIndows :)  not just Ubuntu or Mint.  http://www.distrowatch.com
[08:36] <butugly> free cheese
[08:36] <xbonesx> could someone tell me why this isnt working http://paste.ubuntu.com/505577/
[08:37] <DtatchD> Adluc: you need to get the 10.04 installer
[08:37] <lucent> xbonesx: uh...
[08:37] <greppy> xbonesx: cd /usr/share/icons/
[08:37] <greppy> xbonesx: then do /usr/share/icons/
[08:37] <greppy> argh
[08:37] <lucent> xbonesx: why are you doing that?  just curious what led you to think that tar expects another argument as its destination directory, and not -D like the manual page says
[08:38] <seidos> xbonesx, here is an explanation:  http://www.unix.com/unix-dummies-questions-answers/8898-redirecting-tar-extract-another-directory.html  google is your friend
[08:38] <lucent> my bad
[08:38] <greppy> xbonesx: after cd'ing into the directory, then run sudo tar xzvf /home/xbonesx/Desktop/124442-Pulse-Glass.tar.gz
[08:38] <lucent> xbonesx: it's not -D
[08:38] <xbonesx> lol guys sry still fresh to ubuntu
[08:38] <lucent> xbonesx: let's see if you can find it though, search the man page for 'directory'
[08:38]  * lucent :)
[08:38] <lucent> it's okay but hey if I help you find it yourself maybe that is the best for everyone
[08:39] <aslam> hello, I have removed the default notification from ubuntu 10.0.4
[08:39] <aslam> how do we add back
[08:39] <xbonesx> lucent: good point
[08:39] <xbonesx> lucent: i dont mind searching for things myself but isnt that the point of this channel is for help?
[08:39] <administrator> ubuntu
[08:39] <seidos> xbonesx, helping you help yourself is the best thing anyone can do
[08:39] <urna> xbonesx: hand holding people does not help
[08:40] <greppy> xbonesx: help yes, but #ubuntu helps those that help themselves by doing some searching and reading of documentation :)
[08:40] <seidos> Guest32708, i am because you are
[08:40] <xbonesx> greppy: believe me i dont resort to this channel right away
[08:40] <aslam> can any one help me
[08:40] <Gnea> xbonesx: the nice thing about your problem is that there are at least a couple of different ways to solve it
[08:41] <xbonesx> greppy: im am acquainted with google lol
[08:41] <xbonesx> i am*
[08:41] <bihari_> hellow AbhiJit
[08:41] <xbonesx> greppy: but sometimes i lack the correct search terms to find what i need
[08:41] <Gnea> xbonesx: you could: man tar, tar --help, or simply change the directory to /usr/share/icons before running the command
[08:42] <Gnea> xbonesx: in which case, you wouldn't need the argument in the first place :)
[08:42] <rob_p> aslam: That all depends on what you need help with!  :-)
[08:42] <xbonesx> Gnea: i was thinking at one point or another that i had ran a line that extracted the files, without having to be in the dir
[08:43] <rob_p> aslam: Are you referring to the default message a user gets when logging in to a terminal session?
[08:43] <Gnea> xbonesx: indeed, that's where the option comes into play
[08:44] <xbonesx> Gnea: option?
[08:44] <xbonesx> xzvf, doesnt satisfy it?
[08:45] <seidos> xbonesx, i couldn't figure out a way to do it either.  according to that link, i'm concluding it isn't possible.
[08:45] <xbonesx> seidos: lol i think i had actually 'gksu nautilus' and then did everything through GUI... lol
[08:46] <xbonesx> seidos: seem to have done the trick
[08:47] <Gnea> xbonesx: well, there is a fifth option, but that precludes that were able to follow what was presented to you
[08:47] <xbonesx> Gnea: well i also need all the files extracted to have the correct permissions...
[08:48] <Gnea> xbonesx: certainly
[08:49] <Gnea> xbonesx: but one thing at a time
[08:52] <hdon> lucent, my microsoft lifecam mic is back in sound prefs now that i have installed a kernel update and v4l2loopback.ko did not automatically reload. don't know which fixed it :)
[08:54] <lucent> hdon: glad to hear it's working regardless
[08:59] <Lychaeus> anyone know why Ubuntu keeps booting to a black screen?
[08:59] <hdon> lucent, have you any idea why java was used for this application?
[09:00] <hdon> not that the programming language plays a role in this, but they did go with a particular GUI toolkit i feel is slow and clumsy
[09:00] <coz_> Lychaeus,  hold on I think I have a link for you
[09:00] <Lychaeus> k cool
[09:00] <coz_> Lychaeus,   here you go    http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/securitymonkey/black-screen-on-boot-with-ubuntu-104-lucid-lynx-solution-38426
[09:01] <maedox> It still amazes me that people don't know how to use a search engine. o_O
[09:02] <Lychaeus> Maedox, i have tried, did not find a solution.
[09:03] <coz_> Lychaeus,  when having issues with current ubuntu  ,,,in google it always helps to start the search string  with    Ubuntu lucid  and then the issue     that generally give a few hits
[09:03] <coz_> Lychaeus,  of course you may have to adjust the search string a bit but ...there it is :)
[09:03] <Lychaeus> im starting to think its just this model of comp.
[09:04] <coz_> Lychaeus,  that is not far fetched...hardware can effect how any OS is going to perform  ...I have had client computers that flat out refulsed to allow linux installed
[09:04] <coz_> refused
[09:05] <Lychaeus> im trying to install it on a somewhat older laptop.
[09:05] <Lychaeus> i gets to the ubuntu black screen with the five dots, then loads to a black screen
[09:05] <Lychaeus> no mouse.
[09:05] <coz_> Lychaeus,  right ...older systems can be a bit tricky at times
[09:05] <coz_> Lychaeus,  try that boot  option and see if it works
[09:06] <Lychaeus> can i do that if im booting from a USB?
[09:06] <urna> Lychaeus: on old hardware, install debian. since it lives in the past, it might behave better on aged computers
[09:06] <coz_> Lychaeus,  mm  off hand  with no experience with booting from usb  I am going to say   probably
[09:06] <coz_> Lychaeus,   try it out and test it
[09:06] <coz_> Lychaeus,  and if you are booting from usb  that system cannot be super old
[09:07] <Lychaeus> wont let me get to grub
[09:07] <coz_> ooo
[09:08] <coz_> Lychaeus,  you tried the "e" and also the holding of shift with that
[09:08] <Lychaeus> yes.
[09:08] <webster89> Hey everyone, i have offtopic question: how much time need to completly learn english or spanish language? :)
[09:09] <Lychaeus> i can live steam off my droid if it will help lol.
[09:09] <coz_> webster89,  way off topic
[09:09] <tgywa> Hi every one
[09:09] <ilovefairuz> webster89: /j #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:09] <coz_> Lychaeus,   did you install with live cd?
[09:10] <ilovefairuz> hello, tgywa
[09:10] <Lychaeus> i did the USB method, like they recommended.
[09:10] <tgywa> I can't refirect the output of a binary to a file ... can any one help me ... this is what I treid ...

[09:10] <Lychaeus> i tried that before.
[09:10] <Lychaeus> was unsuccessful
[09:11] <Evil_Eric> what the chan for the new 10.10 rc
[09:11] <tgywa> hello lovefairuz ... have u seen my question?
[09:11] <coz_> Lychaeus,  mm  ..well.. not having the laptop in my hands to see the results  I am not sure what I can say at this point
[09:11] <Evil_Eric> the g's and l charitors are screwy
[09:11] <coz_> Lychaeus,  although I have little experience with laptops   ...many many here are using lapttops and would be better suited to troubleshooting this for you
[09:12] <ilovefairuz> tgywa: try  ./bw_tcp localhost >> myfile 2>&1

[09:27] <ilovefairuz> !paste | sentmen
[09:27] <sentmen> ilovefairuz: I think the problem is a broken nix

[09:29] <DJ_HaMsTa>  how do i eject a dvd drive?
[09:29] <ilovefairuz> DJ_HaMsTa: 'eject'
[09:29] <sentmen> ilovefairuz: Thanks for helping me
[09:29] <zipp0> hello everyone
[09:29] <zipp0> :)
[09:30] <DJ_HaMsTa> ilovefairuz,  that ejects 1, i have 2
[09:30] <zipp0> I need transfer mail data from Thunderbird in Ubuntu to MS outlook in Windoof.
[09:30] <kaiser_s> hi. is there a way to check cd for defects within ubuntu, so without restarting system and booting from cd. And with nice gui if there is such program :D
[09:31] <Robert___> Help: Newcomer here. I have two mounted drives that I don't think I want to be mounted. But it says only root can unmount them. How can I unmount thrum AND ensure try don't get remounted on reboot?
[09:31] <ilovefairuz> DJ_HaMsTa: it can take a /dev argument specifying the device
[09:31] <tarzeau_> kaiser_s: readcd is a nice tool
[09:31] <zipp0> but when i "google", i find many solution to transfer from ms outlook to thunderbird
[09:31] <DJ_HaMsTa> ilovefairuz, i dont understand
[09:32] <TheKro_> hey.  krunner crashed, and I'm trying to submit a crash report using the assistant.  It told me to install debug symbols, but it couldn't do it automatically.  I went to the site it recommends to explain how to do it manually (http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports#Preparing_your_KDE_packages ), but that doesn't explain how to know which debug package to install.  My trace hits problems at "#6  0x005fa
[09:32] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: pastebin: ls /etc/kernel/postinst.d  and each one
[09:32] <TheKro_> can anyone tell me which debug package to install, and more importantly, how I can find out myself next time?
[09:32] <ilovefairuz> DJ_HaMsTa: eject /dev/dvd
[09:33] <zipp0> could anyone tell me how to transfer mail data from Thunderbird in Ubuntu to MS outlook in Windoof.
[09:33] <zipp0> ?

[09:34] <greppy> !cn | ylmf
[09:34] <juk> TheKro_: gdb strace
[09:35] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: i suspect the nvidia script is causing trouble, remove the driver temporarily?
[09:35] <ilovefairuz> TheKro_: i suspect i would be the base kde packages, kde-workspace, kdelibs, qt4 and so on
[09:35] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: should  b okay - my notebook doesn't have a nvidia card.
[09:36] <ilovefairuz> TheKro_: better ask in #kubuntu or #kde
[09:36] <TheKro_> ilovefairuz: already asked in #kubuntu, got no answer
[09:36] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: sudo apt-get autoremove nvidia*
[09:36] <phaedra> zipp0, http://www.broobles.com/imapsize/th2outlook.php
[09:36] <TheKro_> juk: after gdb strace? seems to be giving me a prompt
[09:37] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: running...
[09:37] <vak> hi all
[09:38] <ilovefairuz> TheKro_: juk: gdb, strace and the likes are debugging tools not debug packages (which are the same as normal packages but  compiled with debugging symbols included not stripped)
[09:38] <ilovefairuz> hi vak
[09:38] <juk> TheKro_: what?
[09:38] <zipp0> phaedra: thanks :)
[09:38] <phaedra> zipp0, np
[09:38] <TheKro_> juk: what do I do once i've run gdb strace?  it just gives me a prompt looking like "(gdb) "
[09:39] <vak> my Ubuntu failed to proceed to login dialog during the start. Do you guys have any guide page on how to quickly figure out the cause? (What logs to look at, etc)
[09:40] <ilovefairuz> vak: press esc during the boot process and watch for error messages
[09:40] <TheKro_> juk: this is my output: http://pastebin.com/rbAe3d0b
[09:40] <vak> ilovefairuz: keyboard was not responding
[09:41] <ilovefairuz> vak: press shift at the very beginning of the boot process and select an older kernel
[09:41] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: The error persists.
[09:41] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: ls  /etc/kernel/postinst.d
[09:42] <vak> ilovefairuz: system managed to boot on second attempt. I just want to track down the cause
[09:42] <juk> TheKro_: better start with strace

[09:45] <tgywa> but can't understand the real meaning of the first no( which is meant to be ... socket) ... as I read from the manual ....http://www.bitmover.com/lmbench/bw_tcp.8.html
[09:45] <TheKro_> juk: I can't reproduce the crash, so how will strace help me?
[09:46] <Zeu5> hi i bought domains in name.com and i am a new bie. am using an ubuntu server. what do i do so that my domain refers to /var/www/app/trunk folder?
[09:46] <tgywa> that no is the same every time ... I think that it should be different ... if it a number which is identifying the clients that are connected to the server
[09:46] <EvaLuaTe> hello

[09:47] <Anomie21> Can anyone tell me where the php.ini file is located?
[09:47] <Zeu5> k thanks AbhiJit
[09:47] <juk> Anomie21: you can see it phpinfo()
[09:48] <EvaLuaTe> I'm trying to backup some files with rdiff-backup and I'm using --include-symbolic-links. My problem is that even though I tell it to exclude specific symbolic links, it still includes them in the backup...
[09:48] <ilovefairuz> Zeu5: your machine needs to be publicly accessible on the internet and you need to point the domain to your IP in the registrar DNS management web interface
[09:48] <etheretic> aaargh - iowait fit...
[09:49] <EvaLuaTe> Anomie21, should be in /etc/apache2/php5/php.ini or something like that
[09:49] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: did you purge?
[09:49] <coz_> who here has  experience with laptops  intel video
[09:49] <Zeu5> ilovefairuz: machine is publicly accessible. yes. Point domain to your IP in registrar DNS management web interface. i dont understand how that works please advise
[09:50] <ilovefairuz> !anyone | coz_
[09:50] <EvaLuaTe> Anom01y, or even /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

[09:50] <coz_> Lychaeus,  has an issue with booting into lucid from usb   he can get to command prompt but gdm does not start...if someone would PM him he has a live feed from his android
[09:50] <TheKro_> juk: it only seems to crash when I restart from suspend, so I can't reproduce to generate a crash trace as you suggest.
[09:51] <vak> ilovefairuz: nothing special in messages :(
[09:51] <sasa84> hi
[09:51] <Zeu5> no one is replying to me in #ubuntu-server, can someone guide me?
[09:51] <AbhiJit> !patience | Zeu5
[09:52] <ilovefairuz> Zeu5: when you 'sign in' to your account to be able to manage the domain, mostly there's an option to manage the DNS records for your domain, you need to add an "A" (address) record to your domain that contains your static ip address
[09:52] <Kartagis> if mencoder is saying duplicate frame(s), is it a warning or an error and what is this duplicate frame?
[09:52] <juk> TheKro_: i don't use suspend, even off it at least 6 days more
[09:54] <Zeu5> ilovefairuz: yup just did that
[09:54] <Zeu5> do i need to change name servers at my domain registrar?

[09:55] <ilovefairuz> Zeu5: and beware that DNS changes take some time to propagate
[09:55] <Zeu5> ilovefairuz: then do i need to do anything over at the servers?
[09:55] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: well done
[09:55] <lucent> here's a problem for the masses, which tool does destructive read/write testing on block storage devices?
[09:55] <juk> TheKro_: irrelevant
[09:55] <ne0|penguin> where is bazhang ?
[09:56] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: a reset may b in order?
[09:56] <TuxBrother> hello
[09:56] <ilovefairuz> Zeu5: just to get it working, no you don't
[09:56] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: yes you should reboot after kernel updates
[09:56] <TuxBrother> I have lost my internet connection while playing around with OpenVPN
[09:56] <Zeu5> ilovefairuz: so i just wait? roughly how long will it take?
[09:57] <etheretic> brb
[09:57] <ilovefairuz> Zeu5: could be anything from few minutes to few hours, use this command to verify the ip: dig yourdomain.com
[09:58] <glebihan> Zeu5: it can take up to 24 hours

[09:59] <Leroy> hey all, i was wondering path to trash so that i may access it via cli
[09:59] <Zeu5> ilovefairuz: okie so later on, when the DNS changes are propagated
[09:59] <AbhiJit> !trash | Leroy
[09:59] <Zeu5> how do i do it such tat mydomain.com points directly to this folder /var/www/test/trunk
[09:59] <Leroy> thanks AbhiJit

[10:00] <skumara> hi. How to put this file as desktop background? http://www.raincitystory.com/flash/screenclean.swf
[10:01] <AbhiJit> skumara, right click on desktop and backround and then add this picture is not working?
[10:01] <ilovefairuz> Zeu5: there are interfaces that you can use to manage "virtual hosts" on your machine like webmin
[10:01] <tarzeau_> skumara: you could convert it to a movie, then use mplayer and draw to root
[10:01] <tarzeau_> AbhiJit: it's not a picture, it's shockwafe
[10:01] <skumara> AbhiJit, its a flash animation.
[10:02] <tarzeau_> skumara: mencoder can convert such stuff
[10:02] <AbhiJit> skumara, have you tried the regular proces i asked?
[10:02] <Jungli> AbhiJit any job in linux in India ?
[10:02] <ilovefairuz> Zeu5: but by default, when you access yourdomain.com it will be point to /var/www
[10:02] <skumara> tarzeau_, how to convert to movie. u mean a file with avi extension?
[10:02] <tarzeau_> skumara: yes. using mencoder. man mencoder tells you how
[10:02] <AbhiJit> !ot | Jungli
[10:03] <skumara> AbhiJit, your way doesn't work.
[10:03] <Jungli> AbhiJit janta hoon koi job nahi hai lol
[10:03] <AbhiJit> skumara, its not 'my' way its 'regular' way
[10:03]  * AbhiJit waves to all ops
[10:04] <ilovefairuz> !en | Jungli

[10:05] <scriptwarlock> typo
[10:05] <bullgard4> [GNOME] Applications > System Tools > System Profiler and Benschmark > (System Information) > Computer > Users  displays a list of 50 »users«. What kind of users are meant here?
[10:06] <ilovefairuz> bullgard4: "system" (limited privileges) users
[10:08] <bullgard4> ilovefairuz: I do not understand your message well. What is a "system user"? For example »games« is a "system user". Please elaborate.
[10:09] <Ken8521> bullgard4, i didn't see his question, but I think he means non-admin accounts.. probably accounts that can't use sudo
[10:09] <Gnea> bullgard4: typical unix jargon. system users are meant to be non-real users that are used to help perform various functions for the main running system.
[10:10] <Plishtim> Hi people, anybody in?
[10:10] <am2> yeah
[10:10] <bullgard4> Ken8521: I don't thik that your answer is correct. »games« is no account on this computer.
[10:10] <ilovefairuz> bullgard4: it's a security precaution, instead of running all system processes/background daemons as root (which grants them access to pretty much everything) they get run under a user with a limited ownership of files and resources, so if it gets compromised, the potential damage will be limited
[10:10] <Plishtim> Hi am2
[10:10] <Ken8521> bullgard4, oh ok, i didn't see him say that...
[10:10] <am2> I have a problem..  Can any1 fix this
[10:10] <Gnea> bullgard4: are you sure about that? open a terminal and type:  id games
[10:11] <am2> my nick is am2...  I have one more nick called 10manju
[10:11] <am2> i'm unable to access it
[10:11] <jhattara> if i want to know how much memory a group of processes really requires i guess i should look at the /proc/<pid>/status, but which number is closest to the actual memory use of each additional process?
[10:11] <Plishtim> I'm translating a formal text from UK english to spanish and there's an expression I can't really understand.
[10:11] <Ken8521> am2, why can't you access it?
[10:11] <am2> its saying it already exists
[10:11] <Plishtim> Anyone could help me by private without any funny stuff?
[10:11] <Ken8521> am2, yeah, you need to log in w/ it
[10:11] <Plishtim> It'd take just 1 minute.
[10:11] <greppy> am2: you are having a problem with a nick on freenode?
[10:12] <am2> @greppy: yes... I want to change my nick
[10:12] <Gnea> am2: #freenode would be the place to ask about it
[10:12] <am2> how to do ?
[10:12] <greppy> !freenode | am2
[10:12] <ilovefairuz> am2: ask in #freenode
[10:12] <xbonesx> so i have a few things i would like some help with, first is it normal for it too take so long for my wireless card to make a connection?
[10:12] <Ken8521> am2, if the nick is already registered(and you in fact registered it) all you have to do is sign in w/ the nick, i guess i dont get the issue.
[10:12] <am2> @Ken8521: So how do i change it ??
[10:13] <Ken8521> am2, i'm not following.. what do you mean "how do i change it"?
[10:13] <am2> @ubottu: Tell me specific command. I am a beginner to IRC... :)
[10:13] <ilovefairuz> jhattara: http://virtualthreads.blogspot.com/2006/02/understanding-memory-usage-on-linux.html
[10:13] <bullgard4> Gnea: Your wording is rather abstract. A »non-real user« is what? A program? Are you speaking about a utility?
[10:13] <Ken8521> am2, ubottu is a bot
[10:14] <Plishtim> Let me repeat: anyone from the UK?
[10:14] <AbhiJit> Plishtim, in #ubuntu-uk maybe?
[10:14] <xbonesx> Plishtim: why?
[10:14] <am2> w/
[10:14] <Gnea> bullgard4: no, programs are executable files.
[10:14] <Karen_m> to install mysql 5.5, is there a 'backports' for ubuntu?
[10:14] <AbhiJit> !irc > am2
[10:14] <bullgard4> Plishtim: Go to #ubuntu-offtopic.
[10:14] <AbhiJit> !guidelines > am2
[10:14] <Plishtim> Because I'm trying to find a UK native person to help me out with a translation.
[10:15] <AbhiJit> Plishtim, then go to #ubuntu-uk
[10:15] <Plishtim> Thanks.
[10:15] <jhattara> thanks ilovefairuz
[10:15]  * etheretic staples a platinum medal reading "Ubuntu Hero of Today" on ilovefairuz' chest :)
[10:15] <am2> AbhiJit: hey, so what shall i do ??  It's meant to be used by the main system, not as a standard user in the "user space"
[10:17] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: credit where credit's due, etc.
[10:17] <am2> Ken8521: Hey, tell me how to change it ??
[10:17] <Ken8521> am2, what client are you using?
[10:17] <Gnea> am2: /nick newnick
[10:17] <Ken8521> Gnea, only thing w/ that, it's gonna make him run that command everytime he signs on to irc.
[10:17] <shoonya> vishwa: hey
[10:18] <Ken8521> he needs to set it to log in w/ the name he wants...
[10:18] <Gnea> Ken8521: one step at a time
[10:18] <Ken8521> lol
[10:18] <bullgard4> Gnea: Your sentence "a "system user" is just that, a "system user"." does explain nothing. Can you tell me what do you mean by a »system user«?
[10:19] <T`Pol> where is the right place if you have a question about making a pdf file from a xcf file in Ubuntu? can I ask it here?
[10:19] <AbhiJit> !ask | T`Pol
[10:19] <Inferus> T`Pol probably google :D
[10:19] <Ken8521> yeah, that's really an application issue.
[10:19] <xbonesx> so i have a few things i would like some help with, first is it normal for it too take so long for my wireless card to make a connection?
[10:19] <ilovefairuz> bullgard4: did you read my definition ?
[10:20] <etheretic> Is there a how-to on automounting external disks w. appropriate permissions so that a filer window with directories on these disks will show up after restart?
[10:20] <Ken8521> xbonesx, it depends.. i connect to my network pretty quick, but if i'm out and about, sometimes i connect a bit slwoer to others.
[10:20] <ilovefairuz> xbonesx: how long is "so long" ?
[10:21] <bullgard4> ilovefairuz: Now I read it. And I appreciate very much your explanation. --  Thank you.
[10:21] <tintin> This is am2 here
[10:21] <jbl> T`Pol: might not yield the best results but from the GIMP menu, try "File->Print", "Print to File" and check PDF as output
[10:22] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: /etc/fstab is the place to automatically mount a partition, open a filer can be achieved using the autostart application editor, check system > preferences > start up applications and add an entry
[10:22] <Ken8521> well sing the hallelujah chorus
[10:22] <T`Pol> jbl: I'll try that, thx
[10:22] <tintin> i gave a nick. its saying, already exists...  i was medling wid irc few min back. Now i'm unable to get my old nick
[10:22] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: opening a filer **
[10:22] <sisu_math> hi all, I'm having a problem using the rsync --files-from option, I keep getting the error message "rsync error: syntax or useage error (code 1)". It works fine if I put the list of files directly on the command line. Any ideas?
[10:23] <Ken8521> tintin, did you register that nick?.. if you didn't, then someone else did, so if that person signs on and uses the password to enter their nick, you'll get the boot.
[10:23] <xbonesx> ilovefairuz: roughly 45 seconds sometimes it doesnt even connect on first try, using a bcm4328, utilized with ndiswrapper, with the driver bcmwl5
[10:23] <Gnea> bullgard4: I've already explained it, and at this point, if you still don't get it, I'll have to ask that you locate a UNIX or Linux manual and read up on system accounts and how they're presence is useful in the basic system maintenance, as that is beyond the scope of this channel.
[10:23] <Gnea> bullgard4: sorry, their
[10:23] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: if it gets automatically mounted by gnome, you only need to add the startup entry for nautilus (the file manager)
[10:23] <glebihan> sisu_math: what's the exact command you use ?
[10:24] <sisu_math> glebihan, cd /home/sisu/Desktop/LivingRoom
[10:24] <sisu_math> rsync --files-from=/home/sisu/Desktop/LivingRoom/usb-backup -rauv /media/Lievre/backup/LivingRoom/
[10:24] <T`Pol> ok done ....... jbl that was exactly what I needed thx a lot :)
[10:24] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: i know - but the "save desktop state" function shuld take care of that. I get a "disk not recognised" error when desktop starts, but disks still show up under "places".
 i tried the old nick. Its not working... I oly set my nick to 10manju initially, then i was medling wid something...  Now, i'm not able to retrieve back...
[10:25] <Ken8521> tintin, use the /nick command again.
[10:25] <Gnea> bullgard4: or you could ask in #linux
[10:25] <ilovefairuz> xbonesx: try editing the connection and setting up a static ip, maskk, gateway and dns servers, should speed it up a bit
[10:25] <Ashok_> heyyyyy
[10:25] <Ashok_> whats up buddies
[10:26] <xbonesx> ilovefairuz: the access point doesnt allow this, its in the programming, and i cant access that...
[10:26] <amitesh> hi, i have some problem with firefox in ubuntu10.04
[10:26] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: u mean, just add nautilus to startup apps should solve it?
[10:26] <AbhiJit> !ask | amitesh
[10:26]  * T`Pol sais goodbye to everyone, have a nice day
[10:26] <glebihan> sisu_math: and what does the 'usb-backup' file contain exactly (use pastebin if necessary)
[10:27] <tintin> Ken8521: it says 10manju :Erroneous Nickname
[10:27] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: the save state function doesn't including mounted partitions, and the disks will show up in the menu regardless of whether it is mounted or not, so i guess would have to add an entry to /etc/fstab for the disk and to add a nautilus entry in start up applications point to the folder where you mounted it (e.g nautilus /mnt/disk)
[10:27] <Ken8521> tintin, i dunno man, you're gonna have to figure it out.. i've repeated myself about 8x to you, and it's not getting through.. so.. good luck w/ it
[10:27] <amitesh> when i can use chrome and transmission with my 3g broadband connection,firefox trouble for each page it gave message "offline mode"
[10:27] <progre55> hi guys. I have a package and a couple of patch files.. But I've never applied patches before. So how do you apply patches to a package/program? before you configure and make it, or after?
[10:27] <sisu_math> glebihan, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/S1tDNhz6
[10:28] <ilovefairuz> xbonesx: aren't you using network manager?
[10:28] <tintin> Ken8521: Okay.. I'll do something
[10:28] <glebihan> sisu_math: not sure, but you may need to put absolute file paths there
[10:28] <Dulak> amitesh set a lower d/l and u/l cap in the transmission preferences
[10:28] <bullgard4> Gnea: Thank you for your help.
[10:29] <Gnea> bullgard4: in case you're having difficulty locating one, I suggest starting here: http://en.tldp.org/LDP/sag/html/index.html
[10:29] <amitesh> Dulak: Even i exit from transmission then i have the same problem
[10:29] <sisu_math> glebihan, okay, I'll try that. It works fine if I put the relative file names on the commandline, separated by spaces
[10:29] <amitesh> while chrome works at that time
[10:29] <Dulak> amitesh: nifty
[10:29] <xbonesx> ilovefairuz: yes
[10:30] <ilovefairuz> xbonesx: then edit the connection in network manager's gui
[10:30] <glebihan> sisu_math: yes but it isn't handled in the same way, and as I said I'm not sure, it's just a suggestion
[10:30] <sisu_math> glebihan, still no luck :/
[10:30] <liang_> ^^
[10:30] <xbonesx> ilovefairuz: oh but will my access point be kool with that?
[10:30] <Dulak> amitesh: set a lower total number of connections in transmissions prefs
[10:31] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: add to fstab /dev/disk/by-id/<diskname> for each drive?
[10:31] <ilovefairuz> xbonesx: if you've set up the correct values, yes
[10:31] <xbonesx> ilovefairuz: TY
[10:31] <maedox> amitesh: did you check Work offline in firefox file menu?
[10:32] <xbonesx> anyone familiar with the workings of plymouth?
[10:32] <amitesh> Dulak: I said even i kill tranmission ,firefox doesn't work but at the same time chrome works.......so i suppose there is no problem of network congestion
[10:32] <Kartagis> if mencoder is saying duplicate frame(s), is it a warning or an error and what is this duplicate frame?
[10:32] <stiang> i'm trying to automate the procedure at this url: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LDAPClientAuthentication , but i'm having trouble with the prompts from the apt-get install procedure (ldap uri etc.). how can i skip the prompting, so that i can just move correct config files in place automatically after the install procedure?
[10:32] <amitesh> no
[10:32] <Dulak> amitesh: ahhh.  no idea
[10:32] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: if the disk is currently mounted just type 'mount' and you'll find the entry for your disk/partition that you should add to /etc/fstab
[10:33] <liang_> 有说中文的吗?
[10:33] <ilovefairuz> !cn | liang_
[10:33] <liang_> 英文看不懂~~
[10:33] <juk> if port for incoming connections to transmission is closed, is it affects download speed?
[10:34] <juk> !cn | liang_
[10:34] <liang_> 是的
[10:34] <ilovefairuz> liang_: type: /join #ubuntu-cn
[10:34] <glebihan> sisu_math: looking a bit closer, I was very wrong as rsync doesn't allow absolute paths with this option, still looking if I can find something
[10:34] <liang_> 新手大家多指教
[10:34] <amitesh> Dulak: i thought might have problem with firewall so i disabled ufw and then tried but again some times it works but not every time
[10:35] <Gnea> !cn | liang_
[10:35] <Dulak> juk: yes, the torrent spec says the more you upload the faster you are offered the next piece, you do notice a difference when you open the port
[10:35] <sisu_math> glebihan, thanks
[10:35] <juk> Dulak: sure? all trackers doing that?
[10:35] <glebihan> sisu_math: could you pastebin the complete error message ?
[10:36] <Dulak> juk: the main reason to open the port is to be polite, on average an open port serves 4x the number of connections as an unopen port
[10:36] <Dulak> juk: it's not a tracker thing, it's part of the bittorrent spec
[10:36] <liang_> THANKS
[10:36] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: like /dev/sdc1 udf rw,noauto 0 0
[10:36] <juk> Dulak: thanks
[10:37] <Gnea> liang_: 类型/加入＃Ubuntu的- cn的
[10:37] <Dulak> juk: the more pieces you upload, the more pieces you will be offered by the swarm, so you notice the difference
[10:37] <xbonesx> anyone familiar with the workings of plymouth?
[10:38] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: yes but remove 'noauto'
[10:38] <iceroot> !anyone | xbonesx
[10:38] <xbonesx> iceroot: good point... i want to know how to edit the speed of the loading bar in the boot loader, so that it appears to keep up with my system startup
[10:39] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: but 'udf' is often used for DVDs, i dont think your external disk would be formatted with that ..
[10:40] <sisu_math> glebihan, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/EJukQAcx
[10:40] <iceroot> xbonesx: so if the bar is at 100% the system is loaded?
[10:40] <l34k> in terminal how can i tell what version of linux i am using?
[10:41] <llutz_> l34k: uname -r       or lsb_release -a
[10:41] <xbonesx> iceroot: ya, when my system boots, the bar has only made it like 20% across
[10:41] <Dulak> it's just an animated graphic, get one that is animated faster or slower
[10:41] <xbonesx> iceroot: i want to appear as tho it know what the system is about to boot
[10:41] <nanomachine> zsh is awesome http://linuxinnovations.blogspot.com/2010/10/ultimate-tab-completion.html
[10:41] <llutz_> l34k: or "cat /etc/issue"
[10:41] <xbonesx> Dulak: i just barely caught your comment, please use my name
[10:41] <iceroot> xbonesx: that is not an easy task, specially with upstart. best is to disable the splashscreen and see at the shell at what point you are
[10:42] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: ah. so like: /dev/sdc1 rw, 0 0 ?
[10:42] <l34k> thank you llutz_
[10:42] <l34k> i appreciate it
[10:42] <tic984> quit
[10:42] <tic984> \quot
[10:42] <tic984> \quit
[10:42] <etheretic>  /
[10:42] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: is your external disk currently mounted? pastebin the output of 'mount'
[10:43] <Dovid> how do I upgrade a specific package ? apt-get update <PACKAGE_NAME> ?
[10:43] <xbonesx> iceroot: so how is the bar setup to work, cuz it obviously doesnt know that my system is about to boot, so it must be timed... right?
[10:43] <RustyBee> ihatefairuz
[10:43] <llutz_> Dovid: apt-get install package       if newer versions are available
[10:44] <llutz_> Dovid: to check it: apt-cache policy package
[10:44] <iceroot> xbonesx: its not timed, its bind to init-scripts, but with upstart its very hard to tell the exact state
[10:44] <sisu_math> glebihan, I get the same error message if I give it a non-existant file as argument to --files-from, so its not the formatting of the file itself
[10:44] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: feast ye orbs at http://paste.ubuntu.com/505628/
[10:45] <glebihan> sisu_math: ok
[10:45] <RustyBee> feast ye orbs? what sort of tosh is that!
[10:45] <xbonesx> iceroot: so there is no config file that controls the speed of the bar, is it an animated thing, not determined by anything?
[10:45] <amitesh> i upgraded my system to ubuntu10.04 from 9.10.after that display sleep when inactive for 5 min while my setting in power management is for 30min. and after display sleep it requires password
[10:45] <Inferus> is there a shortcut to install a lamp server
[10:45] <amitesh> it happens after i upgraded
[10:45] <llutz_> !lamp > Inferus
[10:46] <Inferus> ta
[10:46] <thecaptain2000> hi, how can I know, from the command line, what files a package contains?
[10:46] <llutz_> thecaptain2000: dpkg -L package
[10:46] <robert83a2> hello, I'm trying to apt-get remove conntrack-tools, dpkg --remove conntrack-tools
[10:46] <robert83a2> both fail
[10:46] <robert83a2>  subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
[10:46] <llutz_> thecaptain2000: or if the package isn't installed yet, use apt-file
[10:46] <Inferus> llutz++
[10:46] <Inferus> : )
[10:47] <thecaptain2000> llutz_: tx+
[10:47] <amitesh> i upgraded my system to ubuntu10.04 from 9.10.after that display sleep when inactive for 5 min while my setting in power management is for 30min. and after display sleep it requires password.How can i change these setting???
[10:47] <RustyBee> install Windows over the top
[10:48] <RustyBee> That'll do it
[10:48] <glebihan> sisu_math: did you try using a relative path for the list file itself, ie "rsync --files-from=usb-backup -rauv /media/Lievre/backup/LivingRoom/" ?
[10:48] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: looks like they are the Black ones
[10:49] <llutz_> RustyBee: do you have any ubuntu support related things to tell or do you just want to troll? then please join #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:49] <bullgard4> ilovefairuz: Applications > System Tools > System Profiler and Benschmark > (System Information) > Computer > Users  displays a list of 50 »users«. What file does store the same information?
[10:49] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: indeedy. do i need to add more than rw, 0 0 to each new fstab line?
[10:49] <llutz_> bullgard4: /etc/passwd
[10:49] <isbric> whats virtualization software is currently wokring best with 10.04?
[10:50] <erfiug> hello
[10:50] <xbonesx> iceroot: ?
[10:50] <xbonesx> iceroot: so there is no config file that controls the speed of the bar, is it an animated thing, not determined by anything?
[10:50] <scriptwarlock> isbric: is it virtualbox?
[10:50] <isbric> read something about problems with xen, whats a good alt?
[10:50] <sisu_math> glebihan, yes
[10:50] <erfiug> I am trying to enable XDMCP in my ubuntu, but I am only capable to login from the same machine, if I try to establish a connection remotely I got a blank screen with no error
[10:51] <isbric> scriptwarlock: vbox is imao a desktop virtualization sulution.
[10:51] <xbonesx> looking for some advice on which card to use, i know there both crappy cards...., intel 5100 or dell 1505?
[10:51] <amitesh> isbric:i am using virtualbox and works well
[10:51] <erfiug> I am even capable to login in from the same machine by using the public IP, but not if I do it from other machine of the same network :/
[10:52] <erfiug> any idea?
[10:52] <dawoodiran> hello
[10:52] <robert83a2> how can someone release such a buggy OS?
[10:52] <Inferus> why is it buggy?
[10:52] <etheretic> :ilovefairuz: added fstab lines currently look like this: /dev/sdb1 rw, 0 0
[10:53] <robert83a2> apt-get remove conntrack-tools
[10:53] <dawoodiran> can any one help me?
[10:53] <robert83a2> failes on my "old" yeah true
[10:53] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: instead of 'rw' use 'defaults'
[10:53] <RustyBee> robert83a2: Which version is buggy?
[10:53] <robert83a2> ubuntu
[10:53] <robert83a2> how do I check version (new to ubuntu)
[10:53] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: and remove the ','
[10:53] <Gnea> robert83a2: so file a bug report
[10:53] <Gnea> that's how it gets less buggy
[10:53] <llutz_> robert83a2: lsb_release -a
[10:53] <robert83a2> I already found a filed report
[10:53] <amitesh> robert:lsb_release
[10:53] <robert83a2> on google
[10:53] <RustyBee> Oh yes, ubuntu is not good.  Lubuntu don't install at all!
[10:53] <Gnea> url?
[10:54] <robert83a2> just a sec
[10:54] <juk> should I use apt-get install linux-image or source?
[10:54] <robert83a2> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/conntrack/+bug/313419
[10:54] <robert83a2> how to fix?
[10:54] <RustyBee> ubuntu is just an ugly colour
[10:54] <amitesh> dawoodiran:ask ur question....smbdy will help u
[10:54] <glebihan> sisu_math: should work with "rsync --files-from=usb-backup -rauv . /media/Lievre/backup/LivingRoom/"
[10:55] <glebihan> sisu_math: you have to specify a source path ("." here)
[10:55] <Gnea> robert83a2: it tells you how to fix it.
[10:55] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: and you forgot the mount point: should be: /dev/sdb1 /mnt/black defaults 0 0
[10:55] <llutz_> ilovefairuz: fs missing
[10:55] <erfiug> I am trying to enable XDMCP in my ubuntu, but I am only capable to login from the same machine, if I try to establish a connection remotely I got no connection
[10:55] <sisu_math> glebihan, aha! Brilliant. Thanks a million!
[10:55] <etheretic> RustyBee: system/preferences/appearance - u can roll yer own.
[10:55] <glebihan> sisu_math: you're welcome :)
[10:55] <robert83a2> Gnea : yeah but what to modify in /etc/init.d/conntrack
[10:56] <Gnea> robert83a2: again, it tells you. just search for it within the file.
[10:56] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: but make sure the folder is there: sudo mkdir /mnt/black
[10:56] <Gnea> robert83a2: which means you need to actually *read* the file
[10:56] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: /mnt/Black1T etc.?
[10:56] <llutz_> etheretic: ilovefairuz its:  /dev/sdb1 /mnt/black <filesystem> defaults 0 0
[10:57] <dawoodiran> i cannt use tv card
[10:57] <ilovefairuz> llutz_: etheretic: and correct the fs is missing too so make it:  /dev/sdb1 /mnt/black ext3 defaults 0 0
[10:57] <xbonesx> looking for some advice on which card to use, i know there both crappy cards...., intel 5100 or dell 1505?
[10:57] <ilovefairuz> etheretic: whatever the folder name is, just make sure it's created in /mnt
[10:57] <bullgard4> llutz_: Thank you very much for your help.
[10:57] <llutz_> bullgard4: did it help? ;)
[10:58] <bullgard4> llutz_: Yes. Very much so. It was the kind of answer that I expected. Excellent!
[10:59] <Beelsebob> what's the correct file system to mount /boot as?
[10:59] <juk> alright it's actually linux-source-<IP_ADDRESS>.23
[10:59] <Gnea> Beelsebob: usually ext3 or ext4
[10:59] <llutz_> Beelsebob: whatever you kernel supports, unix-fs preferred
[10:59] <llutz_> your*
[10:59] <Beelsebob> which is ubuntu's default?  I'm trying to follow https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/devmapper/+bug/358654 to recover a system
[11:00] <Beelsebob> but mounting boot gets me "mount: you must specify the filesystem type"
[11:00] <llutz_> Beelsebob: and grub has to support it too :(
[11:00] <joa__> hey, i woudl like to know how i can get a clean umount of a filesystem
[11:00] <etheretic> ilovefairuz: would /dev/sdb1 /mnt/Black1-5T etc3 defaults 0 0 be correct,with Black1-5T added as dir to /mnt?
[11:00] <robert83a2> which file do I need to modify?
[11:00] <robert83a2> I only see a large log file on that page
[11:00] <xbonesx> looking for some advice on which card to use, i know there both crappy cards...., intel 5100 or dell 1505?
[11:00] <lancel> My keyboard and mouse do not respond in first 1-2mins after Ubuntu is started. Anyone encountered similar problems?
[11:00] <joa__> is there any possible way?
[11:00] <llutz_> joa__: sudo sync && sudo umount /your/mountpoint
[11:00] <amitesh> hey when i mount any external drive to /media it shows two files with same name as : /media/MEDIA & /media/MEDIA_; MEDIA_ contain all the file while MEDIA is an empty directory. why there is two directory for single drive?
[11:00] <joa__> llutz_: thanks
[11:00] <juk> xbonesx: go for intel
[11:01] <Gnea> Beelsebob: it ought to be defined in /etc/fstab
[11:01] <xbonesx> juk: TY
[11:01] <Ken8521> xbonesx, is this a wireless card?
[11:01] <Gnea> robert83a2: what logfile?
[11:02] <robert83a2> Gnea : DpkgTerminalLog.txt
[11:02] <momentum> what's a good desktop client to use to access gmail?
[11:02] <xbonesx> Ken8521: both are
[11:02] <Beelsebob> Gnea: I only see two lines to mount drives in there – one for /, and one for swap
[11:02] <gartral|p> Is projectm able to be used with vlc?
[11:02] <Ken8521> xbonesx, why would you even suggest a 1505?  it only supports WEP.
[11:02] <amitesh> mommentum:pidgin
[11:02] <Gnea> robert83a2: ignore that, focus ONLY on what David Crosio wrote.
[11:02] <robert83a2> Gnea : I also opened the file /etc/init.d/conntrack-tools
[11:03] <xbonesx> Ken8521: lol no it supports wpa
[11:03] <robert83a2> Gnea : and the stop part... /var/run/conntracd.pid is missing
[11:03] <Ken8521> xbonesx, i just looked at the specs for it, it said wep only
[11:03] <Gnea> Beelsebob: so you're setting up /boot from scratch?
[11:03] <robert83a2> Gnea : I did a touch /var/run/conntracd.pid
[11:03] <robert83a2> but still if I try to remove fails
[11:03] <xbonesx> im using it right now with wpa...
[11:03] <Ken8521> hmm
[11:03] <Beelsebob> Gnea: no idea – shouldn't it have been there in the old system?
[11:03] <xbonesx> Ken8521: i think anyways...
[11:03] <Gnea> robert83a2: right, it needs to create that .pid file when it starts
[11:03] <Ken8521> ..
[11:04] <Gnea> robert83a2: and it needs to have the correct pid of the conntrackd process in it
[11:04] <Ken8521> xbonesx, http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=bsd&cs=04&sku=430-2547
[11:04] <Ken8521> look at tech specs
[11:04] <Ken8521> xbonesx, i'm not saying yours doesn't support wpa..just saying that one apparently doesn't
[11:05] <robert83a2> Gnea : DAMN I DID IT :)
[11:05] <robert83a2> Gnea : had to start conntrack-tools...create the pid file
[11:05] <Gnea> :)
[11:05] <xbonesx> Ken8521: http://img836.imageshack.us/img836/2897/screenshoteditingautoao.png
[11:05] <robert83a2> Gnea : ps -A | grep conntrack.... and write the pid into the file
[11:06] <Gnea> robert83a2: you got it
[11:06] <Gnea> nice job
[11:06] <robert83a2> Gnea : sorry, I'm just not used... to...well this is kinda buggy
[11:06] <robert83a2> Gnea : I know very old
[11:06] <Ken8521> xbonesx, yeah... like i said, i wasn't doubting you, just saying what that says
[11:06] <Gnea> robert83a2: it's cool, as long as you learned something from it
[11:06] <xbonesx> lol
[11:07] <robert83a2> (yeah, try to stay calm....which is hard)
[11:07] <Gnea> lol
[11:07] <Ken8521> xbonesx, so why do you want another card?
[11:07] <xbonesx> Ken8521: was just wondering which was better
[11:07] <juk> xbonesx: evil mac?
[11:07] <Ken8521> xbonesx, probbaly the intel, but is something wrong w/ your current card?
[11:07] <erfiug> I am trying to enable XDMCP in my ubuntu, but I am only capable to login from the same machine, if I try to establish a connection remotely I got no connection
[11:08] <IMMJR> Calinou?
[11:08] <Ken8521> xbonesx, i doubt you'd see any performance boost w/ one over the other
[11:08] <xbonesx> Ken8521: well no, but always looking for the best
[11:08] <Calinou> omg
[11:08] <IMMJR> Calinou?!
[11:08] <xbonesx> Ken8521: ya didnt think so
[11:08] <Ken8521> !best > xbonesx
[11:08] <etheretic> Is there a way to suppress non-serious hits to Firestarter so that its icon doesn't turn red? Says nothing in the fm.
[11:09] <IMMJR> Calinou
[11:09] <IMMJR> Calinou?
[11:09] <rookie1> Is there a Kosher version of Ubuntu?
[11:09] <xbonesx> Ken8521: lol thanks
[11:09] <Calinou> continue to highlight me
[11:09] <rookie1> For Jewish people?
[11:09] <Ken8521> xbonesx, that was only partially on topic for you... but bottom line.. the "best" between the two.. there's probably no difference at all.
[11:09] <IMMJR> Calinou
[11:09] <Gnea> rookie1: yes.
[11:09] <IMMJR> rookie1!!!
[11:09] <IMMJR> Calinou rookie1
[11:09] <rww> rookie1: Yes, regular Ubuntu complies with all Kosher rules related to computer software.
[11:10] <rookie1> ah, good.
[11:10] <xbonesx> Ken8521: ok but what about using aircrack? do you know? was told the 1505 doesnt allow the utilization...
[11:10] <etheretic> KhazarUbuntu?
[11:10] <tubii> rww> mega LOL
[11:10] <Ken8521> xbonesx, well that often depends on the chipset on the card.. not how high/low quality the card is.
[11:10] <dawoodiran> hi
[11:11] <xbonesx> Ken8521: how would i know these things
[11:11] <CT1> Hi. I'm happy with my pc as it is but want to try some different desktop managers.  Is it always possible to revert to my current settings without reinstalling?
[11:11] <Ken8521> xbonesx, most wireless cards can use aircrack, unless you're wanting to use penetration... then your options slim a bit.
[11:11] <rookie1> GD forbid I ever transgress against YWH
[11:11] <Guest97175> hi
[11:11] <Guest97175> hi
[11:11] <Ken8521> xbonesx, what chipset does your current card have?
[11:11] <xbonesx> Ken8521: isnt that what aircrack does...
[11:11] <erfiug> is there any firewal.
[11:11] <IMMJR> Calinou rookie1
[11:11] <IMMJR> Calinou rookie1
[11:11] <erfiug>  by default in ubuntu¿
[11:11] <xbonesx> Ken8521: i wouldnt know how to get that info...
[11:11] <Inferus> CT1 yes
[11:11] <Calinou> continue
[11:12] <Gnea> rookie1: www.jewbuntu.org
[11:12] <Freak_man> hi
[11:12] <jrib> CT1: well you just install the window manager and choose what you want at login.  If you don't want one anymore, you just uninstall it

[11:12] <Ken8521> xbonesx, sort of... some chipsets can crack a network, only if it has adequate traffic of packets to intercept... others support "packet injection".. so if there is no traffic, you can create it.
[11:12] <etheretic> erfiug: iptables is bulit in. sudo apt-get install firestarter gives u a nice gui frontend.
[11:12] <CT1> jrib: Great.  Thanks for the reassurance!
[11:12] <xbonesx> Ken8521: how do i find out my chipset?
[11:13] <Ken8521> xbonesx, lspci in a terminal will show you most likely
[11:13] <Gnea> rookie1, tubii: actually, www.jewbuntu.com is real :)
[11:13] <erfiug> etheretic: I am only capable to stablish a connection to a service from the same machine, not remotely, how can I diagnosticate the problem?

[11:14] <Ken8521> xbonesx, ok.. i'm not sure.. but i don't think broadcom supports packet injection... but use your google-fo
