[00:00] <p1oooop> jan247: thank ActionParsnip too... he did most of the work
[00:00] <ActionParsnip> network bsc pays for itself huh
[00:01] <jan247> ActionParsnip: hehe, thanks as well
[00:02] <p1oooop> anyone know a good guide to a mailserver under ubuntu?
[00:02] <ActionParsnip> np bro
[00:02] <ActionParsnip> p1oooop: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer
[00:02] <p1oooop> thanks :)
[00:02] <p1oooop> awesome
[00:03] <jan247> I wonder though, so that means that any service that relies on a consistent tcp connection is maxed out serving ~65k clients at a time right?
[00:03] <ActionParsnip> jan247: no, you can have multiple connections on the same port but the sessions will be handled by the session layer in the OSI model
[00:04] <jan247> ActionParsnip: I see. however, outgoing connections each uses up different ports right?
[00:05] <ActionParsnip> jan247: depends o the protocol, ftp does but many don't
[00:05] <ActionParsnip> on*
[00:05] <Roasted> I thought intel cards were a sure fire win with ubuntu. Why am I having trouble with ubuntu wireless AGAIN? I have an intel card. fml.
[00:05] <jan247> ActionParsnip: ok, got it. tnx again for clearing that up
[00:06] <QuidRagPro> wow this room is kind of sour
[00:07] <bazhang> !ot | QuidRagPro
[00:07] <p1oooop> Roasted: what card are you running?
[00:08] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: sudo lshw -C network | grep -i product   will tell you what chip it uses
[00:08] <Roasted> Intel BG 2200 Pro
[00:08] <Roasted> supposed rated as 100% working out of box. Worked fine for 5 mins, then magically wouldnt connect.
[00:08] <p1oooop> Roasted: sometimes some cards are not enabled in the kernel conf or they don't have the necessary drivers in the kernel
[00:08] <Roasted> Going to continuously ping google and watch it and see if it drops again
[00:09] <p1oooop> hmm
[00:09] <Roasted> it said it was connected, yet I couldnt connect to my samba sure. sure enough, samba was fine. tried to refresh the page I was on in firefox, errors out. Disconnected from wifi, tried to reconnect, wouldnt ever reconnect.
[00:09] <Roasted> so I just rebooted, connected fine.
[00:09] <Roasted> but like I said, pinging google's dns server continuously till it errors out
[00:09] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: can you ping web based names and / or IPs?
[00:09] <Roasted> ActionParsnip, yes
[00:09] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: can you bring up web pages ok?
[00:10] <Roasted> ActionParsnip, everything is perfect - for about 5 minutes.
[00:10] <p1oooop> slow internel... lol
[00:10] <p1oooop> *internet
[00:10] <Roasted> then I just lost connection. No errors. Said connected.
[00:10] <Roasted> I just flat out lost connection
[00:10] <DrGrov> Enlightenment 17 on Ubuntu 10.04?
[00:10] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: when it drops run:  dmesg | tail   pastebin the output please
[00:11] <ActionParsnip> DrGrov: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1350575
[00:11] <s3r3n1t7> ActionParsnip, how's he going to pastebin it with a dropped conn?
[00:11] <p1oooop> Roasted: it's in the kernel... not a kernel problem
[00:11] <ActionParsnip> s3r3n1t7: he can paste to a text file, reboot get conected and pastebin
[00:11] <DrGrov> ActionParsnip: well nice, I finally got a good topic to read.
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> DrGrov: the ppa has a lucid folder :)
[00:12] <s3r3n1t7> ActionParsnip, if he thinks bout it ... good luck (and thanks for helpin so many ppl)
[00:12] <DrGrov> ActionParsnip: Oh it does. I never even saw that :)
[00:12] <Roasted> still pinging away
[00:12] <Roasted> 320 successful pings so far
[00:13] <p1oooop> hmm, I think I'll try setting up my mailserver once I get home... I didn't make a VPN
[00:13] <p1oooop> I guess this is my punishment... LOL
[00:13] <ActionParsnip> s3r3n1t7: np man, fun to help. I get zero issues here due to limited use and intelligent purchasing
[00:13] <ActionParsnip> s3r3n1t7: so it kinda teaches me the OS
[00:14] <p1oooop> I'm in for a few years... still learning :P
[00:14] <s3r3n1t7> ActionParsnip, i know how that feels although i'm once again stuck on writing a plan for our new IT infra structure ... the fun
[00:14] <p1oooop> not the hardest thing in the world...
[00:14] <GArReT> hey guys, I've plugged my wireless USB card into my ubuntu computer, but I cant seem to find it anywhere... where can i find hardware and if ubuntu was able to install that hardware?
[00:14] <ThiagoMedeiros> can someone help me to install my mouse? microsoft wireless presenter 8000 (bluetooth)
[00:14] <p1oooop> confusing, fustrating, but ultimately pretty rewarding
[00:15] <p1oooop> ThiagoMedeiros: I'm afraid bluetooth has limited support under linux
[00:15] <MaRk-I> GArReT: lsusb
[00:15] <Roasted> almost 500 successful pings
[00:15] <s3r3n1t7> GArReT, generally it's found and installed when you plug it in. Can you see a wireless network icon top right?
[00:15] <ThiagoMedeiros> ploooop =/
[00:15] <p1oooop> ThiagoMedeiros: what ubuntu release are you running
[00:16] <ThiagoMedeiros> 10.04
[00:16] <GArReT> s3r3n1t7, its not actually a wireless device... it has wireless functionality, but its actually a modem that connects me to the internet
[00:16] <GArReT> MaRk-I, do i Download that?
[00:16] <s3r3n1t7> GArReT, lsusb is a command you can run in a !cli
[00:16] <MaRk-I> GArReT: no, you type lsusb in terminal and it lists the usb devices detected
[00:16] <p1oooop> ThiagoMedeiros: I'll see if bluetooth pointing devices are supported
[00:16] <timposey> can anyone tell me why my cellphone is not recognized on one of my ubuntu computers and will not charge when I plug it in?  anyone have any idea of what to check.
[00:17] <ActionParsnip> GArReT: sudo lshw -C network    websearch for the product line to find guides
[00:17] <GArReT> ok but if my modem is listed there? will it work? or do i need to get the drivers for it?? since i think there is only windows drivers....
[00:17] <MK13> Would dd'ing one NTFS partition to another one like 'dd if=/dev/sdx1 of=/dev/sdy1' then lengthening the partition on sdy (sdx is smaller than sdy) work to create a clone of a harddrive which houses an OS?
[00:17] <ActionParsnip> timposey: it should charge in any usb port, regardless of OS
[00:18] <taylor_> okay, i put ubuntu on a separate computer and it took up the whole drive... No Windows is left... I have a boot disk for it. Ive booted it up more than once now, and every time i try it tells me it needs another driver to write over ubuntu... What do I do?!?
[00:18] <ThiagoMedeiros> p1oooop: ok
[00:18] <GArReT> i'm just having a hard time connecting to the internet via my modem on ubuntu :(
[00:18] <GArReT> ok but let me try that first
[00:18] <ActionParsnip> MK13: i'd ask in ##windows too
[00:18] <timposey> ActionParsnip, it does on every other computer, and shows up as a usb type jump drive, but not on this system.
[00:18] <MK13> ActionParsnip: but is the idea atleast sound?
[00:18] <ActionParsnip> MK13: makes sense
[00:19] <MK13> ActionParsnip: ok, thanks
[00:19] <ActionParsnip> timposey: sounds like a dead port, usb has a pin for +5V which charges devices and/or gives them power, so if its not charging the port is dead assuming you use the same cable
[00:20] <p1oooop> ThiagoMedeiros: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=227057&highlight=bluetooth+mouse here's a guide
[00:21] <taylor_> okay, i put ubuntu on a separate computer and it took up the whole drive... No Windows is left... I have a boot disk for it. Ive booted it up more than once now, and every time i try it tells me it needs another driver to write over ubuntu... What do I do?!?
[00:22] <timposey> ActionParsnip; it was a bad cable... I was pulling my hair out with that one, because the cable works with everything else..
[00:22] <p1oooop> taylor_: windows tells you that?
[00:22] <GArReT> Guys, Does ubuntu have drivers for all hardware, or only most of them?
[00:22] <maco> GArReT: most
[00:23] <GArReT> hmmm so for example if i plug in a webcam... what will ubuntu tell me?
[00:23] <taylor_> @Ploooop yeah when i boot it from the disk, but i doesnt tell me what driver...
[00:23] <maco> GArReT: it wont tell you anything. either it'll just magically work when you try a webcam-using program, or it won't
[00:23] <ActionParsnip> timposey: weird, oh well you got the gold
[00:24] <maco> GArReT: the "dmesg" command will tell you what the kernel's saying about stuff. you can see an event in there saying something was plugged in
[00:24] <GArReT> you see my problem is that i DONT know when it is working or not working.... It's like I said, I plugged my modem into my ubuntu PC, but I dont know if he installed it and what to do next!!
[00:24] <dugger5688> taylor_: Windows won't recognize ext (the filesystem used by ubuntu). A fresh install of windows will be able to reformat the drive back to FAT/NTFS. The ubuntu live CD can also format a drive to anything you would nedd.
[00:24] <timposey> GArRet; It has had drivers for most everything that I have ever had to use, you can use drivers that come with some items even though they were not specifically made to work with ubuntu
[00:24] <timposey> ActionParsnip; thanks..
[00:25] <maco> GArReT: i think modems require wvdial to configure
[00:25] <taylor_> @dugger5688 so i just need a ubuntu live disk to get rid of ubuntu?!?
[00:25] <ActionParsnip> dugger5688: www.fs-driver.org   gives read access to ext3 and ext2
[00:25] <dugger5688> taylor_: read my post again.
[00:25] <dugger5688> ActionParsnip: I know that, but he's talking about a windows boot disk.
[00:25] <R3cur51v3> How do you completely, temporarily disable the firewall?
[00:26] <ActionParsnip> dugger5688: gotcha
[00:26] <D3RGPS31> any downsides to 64bit?
[00:26] <taylor_> @dugger5688 so i just need to format the drive on a ubuntu live disk
[00:26] <dugger5688> D#RGPS31: some people say that flash is moody but no problems here. Also u need more memory for it.
[00:26] <taylor_> ?
[00:26] <dugger5688> taylor_: That or a windows install CD (assuming you want to get rid of ubuntu)
[00:26] <ActionParsnip> D3RGPS31: some manufacturers dont give drives for 32bit and some apps that arent on the repos arent 64bit so you will have to manually satisfy 32bit deps manually
[00:26] <D3RGPS31> dugger5688: i won't need more than 650K :3
[00:27] <D3RGPS31> ActionParsnip: ty
[00:27] <dugger5688> Uhhh, yeah you will....
[00:27] <D3RGPS31> dugger5688: i was playing a joke on what Gate's said :<
[00:27] <ActionParsnip> D3RGPS31: id say use 64bit if your cpu is 64bit
[00:27] <dugger5688> lol, nice.
[00:27] <dugger5688> my bad.
[00:27] <D3RGPS31> dugger5688: darn rite it is
[00:28] <taylor_> @dugger5688 yeah i have ubuntu on this netbook here. and im gonna go remove ubuntu frm the 10.04 LTS desktop thanks
[00:28] <trickx51> I wanted to know if there was a way to run ubuntu from a flashdrive with different applications then the ones already installed
[00:28] <dugger5688> trickx51: make a persistent install and boot it, install the software. It should retain the software from then on.
[00:28] <ActionParsnip> trickx51: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization    customise the iso then transfer that
[00:29] <trickx51> ?? Im running from a liveCD....is there anyway to do it without a full install?
[00:29] <lyrae> how do i see how much space i have left on my HD?
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> lyrae: df -h
[00:29] <R3cur51v3> Please, I need to know quickly: how do I disable the firewall?
[00:29] <red2kic> !firewall | R3cur51v3
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> trickx51: you can uninstall apps in the live environment but they will be back next boot
[00:30] <lyrae> ActionParsnip, thanks
[00:31] <D3RGPS31> R3cur51v3: sudo service iptables stop
[00:31] <D3RGPS31> R3cur51v3: i think :D
[00:31] <hlp> Hi, is there any way to set Alt-Backspace to word delete in Ubuntu?
[00:31] <dugger5688> trickx51: There's a guide around for a custom install disk, I made one awhile ago with OpenOffice and most stuff removed to run virus scans on windows partitions ;-) I would help you but I gtg, try searching around on the web.
[00:31] <shomon> hi, how do I get a copy of ffmpeg with nonfree enabled? is there a deb for that?
[00:31] <dugger5688> trickx51: I mean live.
[00:32] <sebsebseb> !ffmpeg | shomon
[00:32] <sebsebseb> shomon: what do you want ffmpeg for?
[00:32] <trickx51> thanks
[00:32] <shomon> I have some 3gp videos I want to convert to avi
[00:32] <shomon> and it looks like only the nonfree bit of it works with this codec
[00:32] <sebsebseb> shomon: its in the repo I think
[00:33] <sebsebseb> !codecs
[00:33] <shomon> sebsebseb: okay I'm just looking through apt search
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> shomon: ffmpeg -i video.3gp -b 250 -s 160×120 -r 15 -f avi -an video.avi
[00:35] <trickx51> i installed an application with synaptic, its listed as installed there and in the ubuntu software center, but I can't find it anywhere?
[00:35] <Daerist`> Hello :)
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> trickx51: what app?
[00:35] <shomon> ah I got an error with that ActionParsnip
[00:35] <trickx51> aircrack-ng
[00:35] <p1oooop> yup. windows is SHITAKE with partitions
[00:35] <p1oooop> hehe
[00:35] <p1oooop> I love that
[00:35] <MaRk-I> trickx51: that's a CLI program
[00:36] <p1oooop> sudo apt-get install aircrack-ng
[00:36] <ActionParsnip> shomon: you will need to install ffmpeg
[00:36] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: uh yes
[00:36] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: they were wondering how to install ffmpeg
[00:36] <shomon> I have it
[00:36] <p1oooop> it is the older version of aircrack-ng though... (I think)
[00:36] <ActionParsnip> shomon: or you can try handbrake or winff
[00:37] <p1oooop> sebsebseb: I'm sure it's in the repositories
[00:37] <shomon> ok
[00:37] <MaRk-I> ActionParsnip: it wont work unless he has the latest ffmpeg
[00:37] <trickx51> MaRK-I: What's a CLI program?
[00:37] <p1oooop> makes sense... manual compilation?
[00:37] <shomon> or do you mean compile it with the nonfree flag enabled?
[00:37] <realubot> When changing display resolution plaing games in Wine and Ubuntu games there will be a black are aroound the desktop and the game will show up at top left cornet.

[00:38] <dr3mro> hello , is there a monthly network traffic calculator to know what bandwidth i used for this month for ubuntu 10.04
[00:38] <shomon> cool! I was just reading http://parallaxed.net/article/howto-convert-3gp-to-avi
[00:38] <p1oooop> realubot: it's an issue that's been troubling people for a long time
[00:39] <bastidrazor> dr3mro: check out bandwidthd
[00:40] <p1oooop> realubot: you can try adjusting your screen
[00:40] <realubot> p1oooop: Ok, why is it doing like this? I think my friend (who is actually having the problem) solved the issue by adding a line to the xorg.conf file conatining the new ressolution.
[00:40] <ActionParsnip> realubot: if wine is giving you jip i'd ask in #winehq
[00:42] <shomon> ah wow, that did something... I'll see if it's produced anything useful...
[00:42] <shomon> so it was mencoder rather than ffmpeg that could do it for some reason
[00:42] <hellothere> Hey guys so im running ubuntu 10.04 and for some reason the volume control on the top menu bar/panel is gone. i dont know how to add it back. i click on "add to panel", but then i dont see where the volume control item is. any ideas? thanks

[00:44] <rch> I am trying to use ufw to set up a firewall ( 9.10 on remote server), and it seems like it won't report the rules unless it's running.  So I won't know if I've locked myself out until I lock myself out.  Am I missing something ?  [ ufw allow 22 ; then ufw status verbose just reports 'inactive' ]
[00:44] <ActionParsnip> GArReT: its only hard as you have your windows goggles on, if you use linux as long as you have used windows you'd find it a snap
[00:45] <realubot> ActionParsnip: Not only Wine, the same problem occur playing games in Ubuntu and changing the resolution to like 640x480. The new desktop show up as a box in the old ones, having black area around it.

[01:01] <mattymanx> I see.  So TB3 does not want to support my old Yahoo account while my TB2 will just fine.  Checap bastards.
[01:01] <maco> vock: keep in mind that whether you use base-2 or base-10 measures, (that is, GiB v. GB) sizes vary. so 14GiB might be 15GB
[01:01] <maco> vock: also, note that the filesystem itself reserves 5% of space for root to be able to work to clean things out if the drive fills up
[01:02] <p1oooop> oh yeah, forgot about that
[01:02] <drew212> ActionParsnip: working on it, ill be back when it does/doesnt work
[01:02] <p1oooop> ...
[01:02] <p1oooop> LOL
[01:02] <sjm> vock, you can check on space by (in a terminal window): du -ba | sort -n
[01:02] <vock> ploooop: I did
[01:02] <sjm> vock, that should tell you what is taking up the space.
[01:02] <vock> maco: it's saying that 14 GB is being used though, when going to the home folder in nautilus is only showing 300 MB
[01:03] <p1oooop> vock: hmm... did you use the disk tool that comes with ubuntu?
[01:03] <vock> sjm, i'll check that out now, didn't know those commands
[01:03] <drew212> ActionParsnip: should i use the B43 which is free, or the STA which is proprietary?
[01:03] <maco> vock: are you including the dot files?
[01:03] <p1oooop> it does that with hidden folders
[01:03] <maco> vock: i know my .kde is 1.8GB
[01:03] <sjm> vock, do you have nautilus set to show the hidden files?
[01:03] <ActionParsnip> drew212: no idea, try one, if it works great, if not then use t'otherun
[01:03] <vock> sjm, wouldn't that still show up in used space? I'll double check
[01:04] <vock> I just lost another 500 MB some how
[01:04] <sjm> vock: du will show you all files and folders and the space they use.
[01:04] <ActionParsnip> vock: how big is the partition?
[01:04] <sjm> vock, turn on the hidden files option in nautilus to see ALL the files.
[01:04] <GArReT> OK guys I did the lsUSB like you asked and it showed my Termenal in there... btw, i have to connect via PPPoE... this is what i'm getting from that lsUSB list ::: Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0482:0204 Kyocera Corp. iBurst Terminal
[01:04] <vock> ActionParsnip, 15 GB
[01:05] <GArReT> Does that mean it's installed or not?
[01:05] <vock> sjm, did that it's still showing only 300 MB
[01:05] <ActionParsnip> vock: so you have a 15Gb partition with 500Mb used?
[01:05] <sjm> vock, did which?
[01:05] <vock> ActionParsnip, 15 GB partition, df -h is saying it's 98% used, but in nautilus it's only showing me 500 MB
[01:06] <ActionParsnip> vock: sounds like the journal to me, is it using a jounalised file system
[01:06] <vock> sjm, i just did it in nautilus, i'm checking du now
[01:07] <sjm> vock, you can limit the depth of the tree du searches like this: du -ba --max-depth=1 | sort -n
[01:07] <ActionParsnip> vock: du -hs /* | sort -nr | head -n 20       should help
[01:07] <GArReT> uhm... any suggestion or help?
[01:08] <vock> du shows sizes in bytes?
[01:08] <ActionParsnip> vock: yes, du -h    shows it human readable
[01:09] <sjm> vock it depends, du -b does
[01:09] <ActionParsnip> vock: the command I gave should give clues :)
[01:09] <sjm> vock, -ba says, show in bytes and all files (not just directories).
[01:10] <vock> sjm, ActionParsnip, ah, thanks guys, I found it
[01:10] <sjm> vock, sort will order them so the largest is last.
[01:10] <vock> turns out Dropbox Cache took up 11 GB
[01:10] <ActionParsnip> vock: niiiiice
[01:10] <sjm> vock, good you found it.
[01:11] <vock> sjm, ActionParsnip, how do you guys remember all the little utilities to do stuff like this?
[01:11] <ActionParsnip> vock: www.bing.com www.ask.com www.google.com
[01:11] <sjm> vock, work more on the command line than in the gui
[01:11] <ActionParsnip> vock: some I know, some i websearch for
[01:12] <vock> sjm, ActionParsnip, maco, thanks guys for your help
[01:13] <sjm> vock, you're welcome
[01:13] <mission64> anybody from china?
[01:13] <bazhang> mission64, in #ubuntu-cn
[01:13] <sjm> !zh | mission64
[01:14] <p1oooop> oooo
[01:15] <navetz> hi i want to move my files from one ubuntu laptop to my new one. I think rsync is the way to go, now do I need to set up an ssh server on of the laptops to get this working?
[01:15] <bazhang> p1oooop, ?
[01:15] <p1oooop> too bad I don't know chinese well enough..  I really need some help. I just bought a new ASUS desktop pc and I'm trying to put Ubuntu on it. After having installed it once, then updating to 10.04, I no longer can access a graphical verison, (right now I'm in the F1 terminal). I can't even boot a linux cd. It gets half-way through the boot of the cd and then everything just freezes and I have to hard-reboot my computer.
[01:15] <bazhang> !ot | p1oooop
[01:15] <p1oooop> KungFuBear: whaaa....
[01:15] <KungFuBear> heh
[01:16] <KungFuBear> p1oooop: Maybe it would be better if you asked me a question and I answer it
[01:16] <sjm> navetz, depends how you want to do it.  If they are both on the same local network, you could just use nfs.
[01:16] <p1oooop> KungFuBear: that shouldn't happen to your computer... perhaps your boot CD is messed up?
[01:16] <canthus13> KungFuBear: Bad burn of the CD, maybe?
[01:16] <p1oooop> KungFuBear: try sudo gdm start
[01:16] <KungFuBear> p1oooop: I installed using the CD I used on my old PC, it installed fine, but now everything is messed up...
[01:16] <p1oooop> did I lagg out??
[01:17] <KungFuBear> p1oooop: yeah, I did try the gdm thingy, it told me that x was already running
[01:17] <p1oooop> !ping
[01:17] <KungFuBear> p1oooop: in F7 and F8 there is nothing but a blank screen
[01:17] <p1oooop> sorry about that..
[01:17] <bazhang> p1oooop, stop that.
[01:17] <KungFuBear> lemme try again though, just a sec
[01:17] <p1oooop> sorry, I lagged out.
[01:17] <MaRk-I> KungFuBear: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-ubuntu-10-04-lts-lucid-blank-screen-at-startup.html
[01:18] <p1oooop> KungFuBear: alright, try sudo gdm restart (I think...)
[01:18] <Unirgy_> hi, how do i share screen session between multiple users? when i do between non root users, it says "Must run suid root for multiuser support.", if i try to screen -x from root user, it says "Access to session denied." the /usr/bin/screen has suid bit...
[01:19] <MaRk-I> KungFuBear: here's another one with different video cards:  http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2010/05/06/ubuntu-10-04-lucid-blank-screen-at-startup-workaround/
[01:19] <p1oooop> ahh, blank screen...
[01:19] <p1oooop> type in your username, press enter, then your password
[01:20] <p1oooop> works for me every time
[01:20] <p1oooop> (and now people can't randomly use my computer)
[01:21] <p1oooop> I need to see that tutorial... thanks MaRk-I
[01:21] <Roasted> p1oooop, what up
[01:21] <Roasted> just had the intel card fail on me again
[01:22] <Roasted> dmesg tail says no space for Tx. Failed to send SCAN_REQUEST_EXT: Reason -16
[01:22] <p1oooop> ahh... I get the blank screen bug on lucid
[01:24] <p1oooop> well, cya guys later.
[01:24] <MaRk-I> p1oooop: yw
[01:24] <p1oooop> !bye | p1oooop
[01:24] <p1oooop> hee
[01:25] <KungFuBear> ok, I'm back with more info
[01:25] <p1oooop> dial-up is using up my grandparents' phone line
[01:25] <KungFuBear> so...
[01:25] <KungFuBear> I have 2 listed kernels that GRUB shows me
[01:25] <KungFuBear> both for 10.04
[01:26] <KungFuBear> 2.6.32-23 and 2.6.28-11
[01:26] <KungFuBear> the first 32-23 is junk, it doesn't do a thing for me
[01:26] <wizard_> can anyone tell me how to configure XBMC to pick up all album art ?
[01:27] <AljosHa> Can someone explain me thinks in /etc/ssh like ssh_host_dsa_key and rsa_key , can they be dangerous for me ? as i have server rented somewhere?means ISP and someone else maybe can access?what happends if i just remove those keys, or should i firstly generate new ones?since i only connect true ssh2 password...not using keys?
[01:27] <KungFuBear> 28-11, if I start in recovery mode, I can make it here to this F1 terminal. the non-recovery mode boots up till when the splash screen loads, and then my monitor tells me there is an Invalid Input Type
[01:27] <Niglop> how do i change the default user which gets logged on @ bootup?
[01:27] <KungFuBear> if I do sudo gdm start, I see my gui login screen, but my keyboard has no power, and my mouse has power but doesn't function
[01:28] <euph0ria> AljosHa: turn off RSAAuthentication & PubKeyAuthentication and you're good..
[01:28] <MaRk-I> KungFuBear:   http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2010/05/06/ubuntu-10-04-lucid-blank-screen-at-startup-workaround/
[01:29] <euph0ria> AljosHa: which is found in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[01:29] <KungFuBear> MaRk-I: heh, thanks
[01:29] <AljosHa> thank you a lot euph0ria :)
[01:30] <euph0ria> AljosHa: the keys that are accepted are usually found in the users home directories.. so you can check in /home if there are any users that you do not know if..
[01:31] <dominicdinada> need a hand here :) with ummm wine :)
[01:32] <trycilic> whats the benifiet of ext3 over ext4?

[01:34] <IchEsseDichAuf> hi, how can i figure out which process took my wifi interface? lsof?
[01:35] <Dexter> Hi. I'm having some trouble with login to samba on 10.04. I cannot login from my mac to my ubuntu desktop. Can someon help?
[01:36] <AljosHa> euph0ria, but there are still .pub files and sucha thinks in my /etc/ssh, should i remove them?even if i did RsaAuthentication no and pubkeyauth no ?should i remove files?
[01:37] <DarkStar1> Dexter: I think you want the #samba channel
[01:38] <DarkStar1> Dexter: but in any case, is it a fresh Samba install, or did this just happen after an update.
[01:39] <mattymanx> Thank you again AP, I got it working but sadly I messed up a setting somewhere and TB decided that my new emails were all junk and deleted them without a trace!
[01:40] <mattymanx> Nevermind...found them.
[01:40] <exarkun> Will I melt my motherboard or hard drive if I try using sata hotplug (ie unplugging a sata disk and plugging in a new one) on Ubuntu 9.10?
[01:40] <mattymanx> I somehow have WAY too many folders in TB3
[01:40] <exarkun> Or erase all of the bits on any of the drives involved?
[01:40] <Roasted> After 5 minutes (or so) of being connected wirelessly on my laptop with an Intel Pro 2200 BG Wireless card, I ran dmesg| tail to find this http://pastebin.com/0RUnYsKg output. What does it mean? What can I do?
[01:45] <trycilic> hey my web home page has just been changed to start.ububtu   hows that?
[01:45] <ridin> it's basically google.com
[01:45] <ridin> except you don't have the choice between videos and images
[01:46] <euph0ria> AljosHa: no need to really..
[01:46] <trycilic> hey my web home page has just been changed to start.ububtu   hows that?
[01:47] <Niglop> how do i change the default user which gets logged on @ bootup?
[01:47] <trycilic> is my girlfriend going to end up looking like my mother?
[01:47] <Niglop> yes
[01:48] <bazhang> trycilic, that has nothing to do with ubuntu support
[01:48] <ridin> niglop -> System -> Adminstration -> Login Screen
[01:49] <trycilic> well when I open my browser now I get my sister   http://start.ubuntu.com/10.04/Google/
[01:49] <Niglop> thanks
[01:49] <IchEsseDichAuf1> how to figure out which process open a resource like network interface?
[01:49] <trycilic> whats this all about???
[01:49] <Niglop> how do i change the name of my computer
[01:49] <ridin> !hostname | niglop
[01:50] <trycilic> so what this about?
[01:50] <ZykoticK9> Niglop, the above message should read "... otherwise sudo WILL NOT WORK AT ALL", so be sure they both match.
[01:51] <fxfitz> I'm currently SSH'd into my new ubuntu box. What would be the command to make Ubuntu automatically log in to a specific user on boot to Gnome?
[01:52] <ridin> fxfitz, i'm not sure what ssh since i'm new to linux but system -> administration -> login screen
[01:52] <Niglop> ZykoticK9:  it worked thnx
[01:52] <frankS2> Hello, are there any tangogps users here? Is there a web based interface for friend tracking?
[01:52] <fxfitz> ridin: Yeah, see the problem is that I am unable to use the GUI because I don't have a screen or keyboard on the box.
[01:53] <Tazzypillar> Hello, I want to try out KDE, preferably by installing it onto the same system as Gnome--but I'd like to keep the two /seperate/, so that they don't interfere with each other
[01:53] <Tazzypillar> is there any way to get that to work?
[01:53] <bazhang> Tazzypillar, not really
[01:53] <Tazzypillar> >:
[01:53] <bazhang> Tazzypillar, the various apps will both show up in the menu
[01:53] <trycilic> bazhang: wheres my home page gone to?
[01:53] <dr3mro> is there a way to make ubuntu uses a lower quality images so i can browse the web without using so much bandwidth on internet mobile usb modem ??????????????????????????????????????????????????
[01:53] <Stmeter> Can someone tell me what this means while I try to ssh to my machine? 2: Packet corrupt
[01:54] <bazhang> trycilic, switch it back in FF preferences
[01:54] <Stmeter> Received disconnect from <IP_ADDRESS>: 2: Packet corrupt
[01:54] <Stmeter> Very odd error
[01:54] <fxfitz> Can anyone tell me how to make Ubuntu log in automatically to a user from command line??
[01:54] <trycilic> bazhang: why should it change?
[01:55] <bazhang> trycilic, no idea. developers decision
[01:55] <dr3mro> is there a way to make ubuntu uses less bandwidth while browsing for limited internet i have only 500 MB /month for browsing
[01:55] <fbxxkl> how do you force close a program?  My thunderbird is trying to compose a message and I want it to shut down
[01:55] <ZykoticK9> fxfitz, not really from command line - but SSH in with X support then run "gdmsetup"
[01:55] <_unnamed_> hello
[01:56] <IchEsseDichAuf> killall thunderbird
[01:56] <guest123> Anyone here used the CLI IRC app Rhapsody?
[01:56] <trycilic> developers as in firefox or ubuntu?
[01:56] <fbxxkl> thanks
[01:56] <fxfitz> ZykoticK9: gdmsetup, got it. Should I use sudo??
[01:56] <Jordan_U> dr3mro: You can use Opera with "Opera Turbo".
[01:56] <thune3> dr3mro: adblock and flashblock will help you in that regard for FF and Chrome.  Opera has some mobile compression proxy stuff you might look into.
[01:56] <ZykoticK9> fxfitz, not required - there is an "unlock" button :)
[01:57] <fxfitz> ZykoticK9: It's actually not unlocking... :(
[01:57] <fxfitz> Failed to unlock: The name org.gnome.DisplayManager was not provided by any .service files
[01:57] <ZykoticK9> fxfitz, you could "try" with "gksu gdmsetup"
[01:57] <alex87> i'm trying to diff two files and only display additions present in one file, any gurus out there?
[01:58] <fxfitz> Sadly it is still failing to unlock. :(
[01:59] <guest123> anyone here use Rhapsody IRC?
[02:00] <KungFuBear> I forget who led me to the link about the blank startup screen in 10.04, but I have some questions about the directions the website gave
[02:01] <KungFuBear> First off, I was instructed to press F6 at the main menu of the install CD and enter in: i915.modeset=1. I got to the F6 menu, but I have no idea how I declare the i915.modeset=1 part
[02:01] <Stmeter> Can someone tell me what this means while I try to ssh to my machine? Bad packet length 962001235.
[02:01] <Stmeter> Disconnecting: Packet corrupt
[02:03] <Jordan_U> KungFuBear: Press escape to get out the menu that comes up, and there should be a line containing kernel parameters. Type "i915.modeset=1" and it should appear at the end of that line.
[02:04] <KungFuBear> Jordan_U: ahah, ok thank you.
[02:04] <KungFuBear> Jordan_U: does it matter where in teh kernel parameters I put that?
[02:04] <AAA> alex87  I don't think diff has that option. you can do something like this though :: $ diff -y foo bar | grep '>'
[02:04] <Jordan_U> KungFuBear: You're welcome. Not that you'll need to change it again on your first boot after installing by holding shift during boot and pressing "e" to edit the menu entry.
[02:05] <Jordan_U> *note
[02:05] <alex87> AAA, thanks, i think i have it working with sed
[02:05] <KungFuBear> Jordan_U: yeah, I did notice the edit part, but what does holding SHIFT during boot do?
[02:06] <KungFuBear> Jordan_U: and that was also my next question. I tried navigating to /etc/default/grub but that file doesn't exist
[02:06] <Jordan_U> KungFuBear: Holding shift at boot brings up the menu, otherwise you'll just boot with the default options.
[02:07] <saganbyte> How can I get a terminal launcher next to the firefox icon next to Applications Places System?
[02:07] <bazhang> saganbyte, right click add to panel
[02:07] <saganbyte> I am not sure if Terminal Server Client App is the right onwe
[02:08] <KungFuBear> alright, well I'm going to try this again, thanks Jordan_U
[02:08] <saganbyte> bazhang, okay, found it... thanks :)
[02:11] <SteveThing> I've got a pretty big problem. I changed my password via command line, now I can't log into my account via GUI (encrypted home folder). I get an error message about nautalis unable to create home folder
[02:11] <LorgonJortle> Howdy!
[02:12] <LorgonJortle> I seem to have run into a problem with the 10.04 installer...
[02:13] <LorgonJortle> I'm prompted with the main menu, and no matter what option I choose (other than booting from first HDD) I get a black screen.
[02:13] <LorgonJortle> And then it does nothing... forever.
[02:14] <trycilic> ok sorted that out
[02:14] <LorgonJortle> After this happened the first time, I burned the disk again at 4x speed, but it still happens.

[02:24] <moes> LorgonJortle, Did you burn your iso to a cd-r disc
[02:24] <LorgonJortle> I burned it to a DVD-R
[02:25] <LorgonJortle> DVD+R
[02:25] <moes> LorgonJortle, I tried other disc including dvd and only cd-r would allow me to install lucid
[02:26] <LorgonJortle> Alright, moes. I'll give a CD-R a go. Thanks, man.
[02:26] <[[thufir]]> how do I run nmap against a router?  http://www.netgear.com/Products/WirelessRouter/WirelessRoutersforSimpleSharing/DGN1000.aspx

[02:29] <Ledgic> hey guys i have a problem with my dvd drives not being detected i installed imgburn under wine and i cant get it to find my drives
[02:30] <Dr_Willis> Ledgic:  does the normal ubuntu apps see it?
[02:30] <[[thufir]]> from this nmap output I see that ports 3000-3001 are blocked?  http://pastebin.org/385794
[02:30] <Ledgic> no
[02:30] <dylanmak> any help?
[02:31] <Ledgic> infact tbh i havent checked how would i do this soz im a bit of a noob to linux
[02:31] <Dr_Willis> !manual | Ledgic
[02:31] <trycilic> as moes says    you are on a PC?
[02:31] <Dr_Willis> Ledgic:  im not sure wine apps can even burn to cd/dvd/ ive never tried. Theres plenty of DVD/cd native tools i use
[02:32] <Ledgic> im looking for specifically to backup um my 360 games with
[02:32] <Ledgic> and imgburn and clonecd are the only ones tht support the layerbreak functions to my knowledge
[02:33] <andrew|> hello, could anyone tell me where to change or see my computers security settings?
[02:33] <AAA> bonhoffer  $ tar -cvjf foo.tar.bz2 foo bar
[02:33] <bonhoffer> AAA: where i could use a glob *.sql instead of foo and bar?
[02:34] <un214> insta-poll: who *else* is interested in getting rid of plymouth
[02:34] <AAA> bonhoffer  glob --stuff | tar cvjf foo.tar.bz2 -
[02:34] <bonhoffer> AAA: nice
[02:34] <bonhoffer> can i open the tar on a mac easily?
[02:34] <Ledgic> another problem is my sound drivers i have a creative soundblaster audigy 4 sound card it says here its recocgnised but wont emit any sound from my speakers
[02:35] <un214> bonhoffer: if you use terminal
[02:36] <administrator_> ..........
[02:36] <[[thufir]]> is this true:  "In the default desktop ubuntu install no port is firewalled and you can  use any P2P program without changing anything in ubuntu. Just change  your router settings." ?   http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-911377.html
[02:36] <un214> yes
[02:37] <thune3> andrew|: security falls into several categories and there is no "one place" to check them. Is there something specific you want to check?
[02:38] <Dr_Willis> [[thufir]]:  tjheres no default firewall/blocking rules yes
[02:38] <andrew|> thune3: no not specifically but could you list a couple programs I could use?
[02:38] <iflema> andrew| if your md5sum check your install cd and are not serving anything to the internet and you are careful where you get you software from. Your go to go. But im guessing your a windows user and possibly freaking out......
[02:38] <Dr_Willis> [[thufir]]:  i just let teh p2p app  setup the router as needed
[02:39] <trycilic> LorgonJortle: did that help you?
[02:39] <bonhoffer> AAA: sorry, i don't get your command
[02:40] <Roasted> After 5 minutes (or so) of being connected wirelessly on my laptop with an Intel Pro 2200 BG Wireless card, I ran dmesg| tail to find this http://pastebin.com/0RUnYsKg output. What does it mean? What can I do?
[02:41] <iflema> andrew| where you point your browser is the biggest concern ;)
[02:41] <thune3> andrew|: make sure "sudo ufw status" shows firewall is enabled. Keep your updates current with update-manager or synaptic package manager.  That's really about all there is.
[02:41] <andrew|> iflema, I getcha
[02:41] <[[thufir]]> On my router I enabled port forwarding for ports 3000-3001 TCP/UDP to the IP address of the linux box.  However, those ports don't show up when nmap runs a scan on the router.  How do I know that they're really open?
[02:42] <un214> thufir: most consumer routers these days are buggy
[02:42] <un214> they can't redirect from inside back where they should
[02:42] <andrew|> thune3, shows that my firewall is inactive, geussing I should just go grab one from the software center
[02:42] <jimi_> Are there any newer packages for gtk-gnutella? mine says i am running an ancient version
[02:43] <coz_> jimi_,  which version do you have?
[02:43] <thune3> andrew|: it's built in firewall, to enable it you should just need to run "sudo ufw enable" to turn it on.
[02:44] <LorgonJortle> moes: No deal.
[02:44] <andrew|> thune3, thank you
[02:44] <[[thufir]]> un214: so, opening that "rule" in the router should "open" the ports for this app, even if nmap doesn't detect them as open?
[02:44] <coz_> jimi_,   looks like the lateset is 0.96.8-1
[02:44] <Roasted> After 5 minutes of wireless connection on my laptop (Ubuntu 10.04, Intel BG 2200 Pro Wireless card) I lose connection. No errors. But I just flat out lose connectivity. After pinging a web site continuously for 5 minutes, I eventually lost connection and ran dmesg | tail and found this output:  http://pastebin.com/0RUnYsKg  what can I do??
[02:44] <LorgonJortle> Just like before, I was able to choose my language, but when I chose anything else I got got a black screen with a white blinker.
[02:44] <un214> thufir: yeah, but only if you scanned _from outside_, not the outside ip from inside
[02:44] <coz_> jimi_,   for lucid it is 0.96.6+dfsg-2
[02:44] <MaRk-I> LorgonJortle: what's your video card?
[02:44] <jimi_> coz_, ya, i have 0.96.6
[02:44] <LorgonJortle> nVidia 9800 GT
[02:45] <LorgonJortle> I'm on 9.10 right now, and it's running perfectly.
[02:45] <coz_> jimi_,  on lucid I believe that is the correct version  I dont see a ppa for it
[02:45] <MaRk-I> LorgonJortle: hhmm try this:  http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2010/05/06/ubuntu-10-04-lucid-blank-screen-at-startup-workaround/
[02:45] <imgx64> Stupid vi question: In command mode, do you place your fingers on hjkl or jkl;? I find placing them on hjkl difficult, undoing all I learned in touch typing.
[02:45] <Jordan_U> imgx64: jkl;
[02:45] <MaRk-I> LorgonJortle: your option would be "nomodeset"
[02:46] <jimi_> coz_, ok, so i am out of luck. Also, I had a java installation die during apt-get, and now I get this error message, [Press RETURN to try again, 'no' + RETURN to abort] no
[02:46] <Jordan_U> imgx64: Try "vimtutor".
[02:46] <LorgonJortle> Thanks, MaRk-l
[02:46] <coz_> jimi_,   sun java or icedtea?
[02:46] <jimi_> coz_, sun java, sorry... the jdk
[02:46] <coz_> jimi_,  ah ok
[02:46] <MaRk-I> LorgonJortle: yw, good luck
[02:46] <Roasted> ubuntu can run on 1.5ghz single core proc with 1gb ram, right
[02:46] <coz_> jimi_,  mm open synaptic package manager and check in there
[02:47] <Roasted> cuz its running fing slow on this laptop with those specs
[02:47] <imgx64> Jordan_U: Ok, thanks.
[02:47] <Jordan_U> imgx64: You're welcome.
[02:47] <thune3> imgx64: standard finger positions, btw.
[02:48] <trycilic> thune3: what do you mean by squirrely?
[02:49] <qiuzz> hello
[02:49] <un214> I'm starting to believe that plymouth caused quite a few people to jump ship. Now I just need to figure out where.
[02:49] <thune3> trycilic: sorry for non-standard usage, i just mean stuff that has a higher than usual probability of being malware infested.
[02:49] <upgrdman> my mouse has a "find" button that bring up the find program. how can I assign that mouse button to switch windows instead (alt-tab) ?
[02:50] <jimi_> My apt-get install of sun java sdk died, and now apt-get says [Press RETURN to try again, 'no' + RETURN to abort]  and wont get past this
[02:50] <julius06117> i got a problem, my mutt doesn't work well
[02:51] <qiuzz> how to use google talk for linux
[02:51] <trycilic> thune3: thanks   so if im not on XP squirrely dosent matter?
[02:51] <jimi_> julius06117, kick it in the butt... rub its nose in the carpet if it pees
[02:51] <julius06117> errrr
[02:51] <qiuzz> ???
[02:52] <jimi_> quiz, pidgin?
[02:52] <julius06117> i just can recive my mail。。。。sometimes
[02:52] <jimi_> oh
[02:52] <jimi_> that type of mutt :)
[02:52] <thune3> trycilic: i'm not one who relies on the belief that linux is immune to all threats.
[02:52] <un214> !mint
[02:52] <un214> !mintsupport
[02:53] <trycilic> thune3: sure (no OS is totally safe) but not malware?
[02:54] <wildbat> Roasted, try lubuntu then
[02:54] <julius06117> anyone has better tools for auto mail?
[02:54] <Roasted> wildbat, not to sound like a prick, but 1.5ghz and 1gb ram should ABSOLUTELY be enough for ubuntu.
[02:54] <Roasted> its crazy to see this thing lagging
[02:55] <wildbat> Roasted, depends how you use it , and if you have compiz running ... with IGP ~
[02:57] <commander_> help.my youtube videos won't play.i installed flashplugin-nonfree and it keep saying error occured
[02:58] <Roasted> wildbat, I need compiz running due to using docky - it ran 9.04 fine. why shouldtn 10.04?
[02:58] <commander_> or any other videos on any site for tht matter
[02:58] <jimi_> !kubuntu
[02:58] <trycilic> thune3: linux is not prone to malware?
[02:58] <jimi_> linux is malware
[02:59] <wrinkliez> would anyone like to hold my hand in creating a source package for an incredibly simple script?
[03:00] <wildbat> Roasted, check if you have the video driver installed
[03:00] <thune3> trycilic: i don't understand which side you are asking. Malware is the broadest term for malicious softwares.
[03:00] <andrew|> could anyone tell me how to check which video card my computer is using at the moment?
[03:00] <coz_> jimi_,   I just in stalled gtk gnutella and it is saying the same thing about being very old
[03:01] <coz_> jimi_,  let me see if I can remedy this hold on
[03:01] <Roasted> wildbat, its an ati driver - no drivers came down via hardware driver manager.
[03:01] <Roasted> wildbat, er rrestricted driver manager - whatever it is
[03:01] <trycilic> thune3: just trying to engage you in conversation!
[03:01] <jimi_> coz_, ya, me too, wont connect to anything :(
[03:02] <thune3> trycilic: if you wan't go offtopic in pm, i'll engage you
[03:02] <trycilic> thune3: but hey np
[03:02] <wildbat> !ati | Roasted
[03:02] <Roasted> wildbat, again - none came through te hardware driver manager.
[03:02] <miststlkr> allo all
[03:02] <zombie-robot> how do i copy and paste a folder with spaces via command line?
[03:03] <Roasted> zombie-robot, use quotes
[03:03] <miststlkr> anyone have experience setting up a persistent USB install?
[03:03] <Roasted> "zombie folder with spaces"
[03:03] <wildbat> Roasted, you have to DL from ati
[03:03] <coz_> jimi_,  on this page are unofficial builds for ubuntu   http://stinker.serveftp.net:8000/gtkgnutella/gtkgnutella.html
[03:03] <wildbat> Roasted, read the guide
[03:03] <Roasted> are ATI open source drivers any good, or should I use restricted?
[03:04] <coz_> Roasted,    Radeon 7000 (or M6). For 7000 to HD4xxx series cards, you can use the open source "radeon" driver. HD2xxx and later series cards are also supported by the proprietary "fglrx" driver.
[03:04] <Roasted> coz_, for an older laptop, what would be better?
[03:05] <coz_> Roasted,  welll I am not really up on ati configs and which driver to use with what but I believe the people in #radeon for be much more helpful than I can
[03:05] <coz_> for = would
[03:05] <Roasted> coz_, you really think theyd know the answer to a linux related question? :P
[03:06] <coz_> Roasted,  absolutely
[03:06] <Roasted> lol?????
[03:06] <coz_> Roasted,   the people I know who know about ati all suggest that channel
[03:06] <coz_> Roasted,  and I dont know anyone with windows using ati :)
[03:07] <coz_> Roasted,   you could go into #compiz and talk with soreau  if he is not busy  but DO NOT pm him
[03:08] <Roasted> does he get a little fussy via PM?
[03:08] <coz_> Roasted,  yes so dont pm him or I will hear about it :)
[03:08] <fvultee> #join openvnc
[03:08] <h00k> !pm
[03:09] <coz_> jimi_,   I installed the one pacakge from that link and it does work withouth the warning about the age of the application
[03:09] <miststlkr> or, for that matter, has anyone tried to set up a persistent install on an SD card?  I have a 4GB USB stick running persistent for a bit now, and just picked up a 16GB stick for the next iteration, not sure how big to make the casper though.  This one I did a 3GB casper on a 4GB stick and the system ran out of room REAL fast.. not sure what happens on the casper and what happens on the un-caspered space.  I had presumed anything no
[03:09] <miststlkr> t casper was used for SWAP, but I'm thinking otherwise now...
[03:09] <Daekdroom> Roasted, #radeon channel is for the open source radeon X.org driver support.
[03:09] <Daekdroom> Roasted, of course they answer linux related questions.
[03:09] <Roasted> this laptop is going so slow. its almost unuseable
[03:10] <fxfitz> I would like to run a unix command when the computer starts, but not as root, as a user. How would I do that?
[03:10] <Roasted> been waiting for appearance window to open for the last 3-4 minutes so I can disable compiz to see if it helps
[03:10] <coz_> check with #radeon
[03:10] <Roasted> wow. yeah. it froze.
[03:10] <Roasted> time for the windows fix. REBOOTING!
[03:10] <Daekdroom> Roasted, Alt + F2, type metacity --replace and press enter
[03:10] <Roasted> Daekdroom, I'd love to. but.. it was kinda frozen.
[03:10] <Daekdroom> Roasted, Rebooting is for people that have no clue how to fix something o.o
[03:10] <rystraum> fxfitz: System > Preferences > Startup Applications
[03:10] <Roasted> Daekdroom, how doy ou fix a problem when the computer wont respond?
[03:11] <Roasted> Daekdroom, so yeah, no clue waht they're doing? I CANT MOVE
[03:11] <Roasted> thanks
[03:11] <fxfitz> rystraum: Tried that, but gnome doesn't start on boot.
[03:11] <Daekdroom> Roasted CRTL + ALT + F1, killall (insert here name of whatever is freezing your computer)
[03:11] <Roasted> tried it
[03:11] <Roasted> was frozen
[03:11] <rystraum> fxfitz: So, what do you get on boot?
[03:11] <Roasted> thanks
[03:11] <Daekdroom> Woah.
[03:11] <Roasted> nothing at all responded
[03:11] <Daekdroom> That should be something way beyond compiz.
[03:11] <Roasted> even the activity lights on the system were frozen.
[03:11] <Roasted> love it.
[03:11] <fxfitz> rystraum: I can SSH in. That's what I"m doing.
[03:12] <Roasted> its always wicked fast when it boots up tho
[03:12] <Roasted> and gradually grows to a crawl
[03:12] <Daekdroom> Roasted, does the mouse move?
[03:12] <Roasted> Daekdroom, it does now that I *GASP* rebooted it.
[03:12] <Daekdroom> Ah..
[03:12] <rystraum> fxfitz: Hmmm. You want it to run every time or just once?
[03:13] <Daekdroom> Roasted, well, compiz cannot cause such a big lock up.
[03:13] <fxfitz> rystraum: Every time on boot.
[03:13] <Roasted> I wouldnt think so, but I disabled compiz anyway to check it out
[03:13] <rystraum> fxfitz: Have you checked up on adding your commands at the end of ~/.bashrc?
[03:14] <Roasted> might be worthwhile grabbing an ati driver though
[03:14] <Roasted> since nothing is available in hardware drivers
[03:14] <Fishy> for some reason there is no way to change my resolution
[03:14] <tenochslb> My lubuntu install on the old laptop brings this error "process 277 glibwarning getpwuid_r(): failed due to blah  blah. You think this is causing problems at all on the system. Most of the time it freezes on password screen
[03:14] <Daekdroom> Roasted, if it's not avaiable, it's probably not compatible with your videocard.
[03:14] <fxfitz> rystraum: If I add it to .bashrc, wouldn't I have to log in with SSH before the command is run?
[03:15] <fxfitz> rystraum: This might be easier: I want to start vncserver on boot.
[03:15] <Roasted> Daekdroom, I was told I should still install one regardless.
[03:15] <MikeXz> Questions - just formatted 2 drives as ext3 in gparted and loaded drive into ubuntu - in the file explorer I cannot creat efolders - getting access denied - seems like I should not need to be sudo - what gives?
[03:15] <Roasted> Daekdroom, bad idea?
[03:15] <jimi_> coz_, Which one do you recommend?
[03:15] <Sam_Fisher> Howdy Ya'll
[03:15] <Daekdroom> Roasted, ATI binary driver probably wouldn't install.
[03:16] <Roasted> Daekdroom, Roasted: fglrx dropped support for your card
[03:16] <Roasted> well, fml
[03:16] <lwizardl> Hi
[03:16] <Daekdroom> Roasted, the opensource driver, on the other hand, should give excellent support for you card.
[03:16] <Sam_Fisher> How do i get my Logitech Fusion webcam to work when I need it? I have Cheese installed and had it work before. Now it just starts and spins a wheel and shuts down.
[03:16] <Daekdroom> Roasted, because I have a x200 as well.
[03:16] <rystraum> fxfitz: Ahh. So that's what you want to do. Hmmm. I can't think of anything else but adding it to /etc/init.rcXd.
[03:16] <lwizardl> I was wondering in the openoffice writer program if there is a way to include the Header/Footer but only on certain pages? Like maybe Pages 3-10, 12-19, etc
[03:17] <Roasted> Daekdroom, do you use the open source driver?
[03:17] <Daekdroom> Roasted, yes
[03:17] <rystraum> fxfitz: But then again, that would execute the process as root.
[03:17] <tenochslb> could a getpwuid_r(): failed due to bla bla cause problems loading lubuntu?
[03:17] <coz_> jimi_,  are you on karmic or lucid?
[03:17] <Daekdroom> Roasted, it should work out of the box, by the way.
[03:17] <Roasted> Daekdroom, how can I obtain it? Ive never used an OS driver
[03:17] <Roasted> Daekdroom, well, it "works" I suppose
[03:17] <fxfitz> rystraum: And vncserver needs to be started as the user, right?
[03:17] <Roasted> Daekdroom, how can I tell if its in use?
[03:17] <jimi_> coz_, how can i tell?
[03:17] <fxfitz> fxfitz: Could I write a script that did like 'su fxfitz; vncserver'??
[03:17] <IdleOne> tenochslb: probably, ask in #lubuntu
[03:17] <Daekdroom> Roasted, lsmod | grep radeon should return a few lines if it's in use
[03:17] <coz_> jimi_,  lsb_release -a   in terminal
[03:17] <fxfitz> rystraum: Could I write a script that did like 'su fxfitz; vncserver'??
[03:18] <jimi_> coz_, i switched about 4-5 months ago from fedora, this new naming convention for distro versions is weird.
[03:18] <Daekdroom> Roasted, well, we better move the entire thing to #radeon o.o
[03:18] <MikeXz> Questions - just formatted 2 drives as ext3 in gparted and loaded drive into ubuntu - in the file explorer I cannot create folders - getting access denied - seems like I should not need to be sudo - what gives?
[03:18] <coz_> jimi_,  understood   so just open a terminal and paste this command     lsb_release -a
[03:19] <Sam_Fisher> Logitech webcam help? Cheese please
[03:19] <Roasted> Daekdroom, what for?
[03:19] <coz_> jimi_,    what did that spit out??
[03:19] <tenochslb> IdleOne, thanks i will try, i being trying to get help since yesterday on that channel but they must be really busy.
[03:19] <jimi_> coz_, karmic
[03:19] <rystraum> fxfitz: That could work I think. I'm checking up on if vncserver really needs to be run by the user.
[03:19] <Daekdroom> Roasted, so I don't have to read the same conversation twice. I'm there.
[03:19] <Sam_Fisher> When i search from Nautilus it looks outside of the folder I am in. How do I make it just look inside the folder I am in?
[03:19] <Roasted> ahh. lol
[03:20] <rystraum> fxfitz: I have vncserver installed on my desktop too so I'm trying to find out.
[03:20] <coz_> jimi_,   ok then download the package for karmic  4th one down on the list click the number  17432    http://stinker.serveftp.net:8000/gtkgnutella/gtkgnutella.html
[03:20] <LorgonJortle> Still not working... :-(
[03:20] <coz_> jimi_,  or the 64 bit  also numbered  17432
[03:20] <laura_> #lavida
[03:20] <rystraum> fxfitz: Where did you get the impression that vncserver should be run as user? Any documentation / link?
[03:20] <jimi_> coz_, thanks.... i will do that now.. how does ubuntu come up w/ the naming conventions?
[03:21] <LorgonJortle> I tried installing it and booting from it using nomodeset in lieu of quiet splash, but it still just goes black.
[03:21] <fxfitz> rystraum: Well, all of the server information is stored in ~/.vnc/ so I figured it was user-specific.
[03:21] <coz_> jimi_,  you mean like 9.04?   or 10.04  ?
[03:21] <jimi_> coz_, like karmic / iggy / etc
[03:22] <coz_> jimi_,    oh!! those are chosen by mark shuttleworth and they are following the alphabet
[03:22] <MikeXz> Questions - just formatted 2 drives as ext3 in gparted and loaded drive into ubuntu - in the file explorer I cannot create folders - getting access denied - seems like I should not need to be sudo - what gives?
[03:22] <MaRk-I> fxfitz: not sure but I think you want to do this?  http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Remote_Access_to_the_Ubuntu_Linux_Desktop#Creating_Additional_Desktops
[03:22] <oshibanzen_> Okay I really need to get rid of the ugly blueish screens @boot/restart, any hints?
[03:22] <jimi_> coz_, so it lucid is 'newer' than karmic?
[03:23] <coz_> jimi_,   is is  yes  karmic is ubuntu 9.10  lucid is 10.04
[03:23] <jimi_> oh ok :)
[03:23] <coz_> jimi_,   and those numbers are the dates of the release
[03:23] <coz_> jimi_,  10.04   2010  april
[03:23] <fxfitz> MaRk-I: Thats actually exactly what I'm doing
[03:23] <fxfitz> MaRk-I: But I want vncserver to start on boot.
[03:23] <LorgonJortle> Anyone have more ideas on how to install lucid and get past the black screen?
[03:23] <jimi_> :)
[03:23] <coz_> jimi_,  not so confusing now yes?

[03:51] <Roasted> rystraum, from what I understand, intel is *THE* card to have for wireless with linux due tot heir support and integrated drivers. I didnt have an option with drivers. Theyre embedded within the kernel or whatever.

[03:51] <MaRk-I> vu1kan: ugh, no
[03:51] <Roasted> rystraum, it just worked. Intel has always worked. Yet this one is giving me the finger.

[04:16] <nimbiotics> MaRk-I> i typed the command you indicated and got nothing back; does it mean file does not exist?

[04:17] <MaRk-I> nimbiotics: not really, maybe it's not indexed yet you can also try:   sudo updatedb && locate mysql.sock
[04:18] <fxfitz> aristo: Would it be the broadcast option?
[04:19] <nimbiotics> MaRk-I> same thing ... should i just hang myself now? :D
[04:19] <_SKiTZO> nimbiotics: cd / && find | grep -i "mysql.sock"

[04:19] <MaRk-I> nimbiotics: bonzai trees are the best..
[04:19] <_SKiTZO> nimbiotics: usually its under /var/ somewhere
[04:19] <aristo> fxfitz, if u only need to set static ip, you don't need to set up broadcast
[04:19] <aristo> just netmask and ip
[04:20] <aristo> then add gw with route
[04:20] <nimbiotics> MaRk-I>	best tip ive had in 3 nites :)
[04:20] <ant> anyone got netflix working in linux?
[04:21] <fxfitz> aristo: Hmm... any idea what would be wrong with 'ifconfig eth0 address <IP_ADDRESS>' ?? Netmask should be the same.
[04:21] <aristo> try, ifconfig eth0 down
[04:22] <aristo> then set the static ip
[04:22] <fxfitz> aristo: Hehe what if I'm SSHing in and hoping it works the first time? ;-)
[04:22] <iceroot> ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>

[04:24] <_SKiTZO> nimbiotics: try cd /var
[04:24] <Guest26091> netflix, ubuntu...anyone?
[04:24] <_SKiTZO> then find | grep -i "mysql.sock" > lol.txt
[04:26] <nimbiotics> MaRk-I>	YOU ARE THE MAN! thanks a lote
[04:26] <MaRk-I> nimbiotics: yw
[04:26] <nimbiotics> _SKITZO > thankyou very much, Marks0I's link gave me the answer
[04:26] <MaRk-I> On Debian and Ubuntu, it's /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
[04:27] <_SKiTZO> hehe. i always think its better to teach people how to fish than to give them fish
[04:27] <_SKiTZO> :P
[04:27] <_SKiTZO> '
[04:27] <Wanwan> please give me a fish :(
[04:27] <mrklean> aristo, no matter what I do it just defaults back to the livecd's boot folder and not disk-2's (mounted name) /boot
[04:27] <Wanwan> I'm having a bit of issues with Ubuntu, and while I don't want to get rid of it, I do want to install Win7 as well
[04:27] <_SKiTZO> actually the best thing to do is teach people how to teach people how to fish :P
[04:28] <nimbiotics> MaRk-I, _SKITZO > The next thing a was about to try was witchcraft...
[04:28] <Wanwan> but my computer won't let me boot from the CD apparently
[04:28] <aristo> mrklean, exactly how are u doing it?
[04:28] <MaRk-I> nimbiotics: still got bonzais for sale :P
[04:28] <Wanwan> it takes me to an OS selection menu but with no options for the installer CD.
[04:28] <abadabad00> Need help getting my Soundblaster Audigy 4 to use 7.1 speakers. I'm in Ubuntu 10.04 64bit.
[04:28] <nimbiotics> MaRk-I> sorry man, get yourself another customer
[04:28] <spasysheep> i've just installed gentoo and want to add it to the GRUB2 menu put in place by ubuntu, as ubuntu is still my primary system. how do i achieve this?
[04:29] <nimbiotics> gnite yall!
[04:30] <aristo> gnite
[04:30] <Wanwan> any ideas anyone? :(
[04:30] <fxfitz> iceroot: Okay, so your ifconfig command worked. eth0 was registered to <IP_ADDRESS>  but I wasn't getting any outside internet.
[04:30] <_SKiTZO> wanwan which cd is it
[04:30] <aristo> fxfitz, did you set default gateway?
[04:30] <iflema>  Wanwan check ya bios and make sure its set to try cdroms first. Also there is an alternate cd with more options,drivers and what not
[04:30] <aristo> or you dns?
[04:30] <iceroot> fxfitz: then check the output of "route"
[04:30] <Wanwan> I burned a win7 ISO onto a DVD via ubuntu
[04:31] <fxfitz> aristo: No?
[04:31] <spasysheep> wanwan: there is a way to boot from a floppy and then pass the system on to a cd, but last time i had to do that was years ago
[04:31] <aristo> well you need to set default gw with route
[04:31] <iceroot> Wanwan: enable cd boot in the bios
[04:31] <Wanwan> iflema: specified CD boot, and it spits me to the OS selection screen, but they're all Ubuntu
[04:31] <fxfitz> aristo: How so?
[04:31] <aristo> and your isp dns at resolv.conf
[04:31] <Wanwan> spasysheep: floppy? good god.
[04:31] <_SKiTZO> wanwan: os selection menu is after it allready booted of the hd
[04:32] <deathnight114> Anybody know is starcraft II Runs in wine?
[04:32] <iflema>  Wanwan try another cd or verify contens with md5sum check
[04:32] <fxfitz> aristo: You know, I did this once a few months ago with a server edition and I don't remember it being this complicated. :-P
[04:32] <iceroot> fxfitz: route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS> (if that is your gateway)
[04:32] <spasysheep> wanwan: exactly
[04:32] <abadabad00> Need help getting my Soundblaster Audigy 4 to use 7.1 speakers. I'm in Ubuntu 10.04 64bit.
[04:32]  * MaRk-I never heard of "windows 7 nvidia" edition...
[04:32] <iceroot> MaRk-I: ##windows
[04:32] <fxfitz> iceroot: My default gateway is <IP_ADDRESS> right now, and thats what it should be even after.
[04:32] <Wanwan> iflema: what would md5sum achieve?
[04:33] <spasysheep> how do I add another kernel from a completely different distro to the ubuntu GRUB2 menu?
[04:33] <fxfitz> iceroot: I basically want my ubuntu box to always start on <IP_ADDRESS>.
[04:33] <iceroot> fxfitz: ad route is showing that?
[04:33] <fxfitz> iceroot: Yes.
[04:33] <iceroot> fxfitz: as static ip? you want <IP_ADDRESS>?
[04:33] <iflema> Wanwan make sure the cd is as it should be.... no little extras or things missing
[04:33] <fxfitz> iceroot: Yes.
[04:33] <iceroot> fxfitz: sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces
[04:33] <Wanwan> iflema: yeah, Ubuntu keeps spitting out the DVDs I keep burning, saying there's an error.
[04:33] <_SKiTZO> spasysheep: i would ask around in grub channel. i used to grok grub until grub2 came out, and now im totally clueless. the made a fuzzy ball of scripts and glue that not even I can penetrate
[04:33]  * fxfitz changes 'vi' to 'emacs' :-P
[04:34] <iceroot> fxfitz: add the address, netmask and gateway, set the nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf
[04:34] <mrklean> aristo, since the disk is already mounted, I am cd'ing into that disks /boot/grub then trying to "gedit grub.cfg"
[04:34] <iceroot> fxfitz: dont use /me here
[04:34] <spasysheep> _SKiTZO: kthx
[04:34] <aristo> Wanwan maybe you iso image is corrupt
[04:34] <fxfitz> Woops!
[04:34] <mrklean> I have also cd'd into just disk-2 and then gedit /boot/grub/grub.cfg and that defaults
[04:34] <Wanwan> aristo: yeah, i'm starting to think that too, but I used it just fine when I installed Win7 with VirtualBox in Ubuntu
[04:34] <fxfitz> iceroot: So whats the format of the interfaces file? :( iface eth0 ... ?
[04:35] <aristo> mrklean, you need to browse to the folder where you have mounted that disk partition
[04:35] <abadabad00> Need help getting my Soundblaster Audigy 4 to use 7.1 speakers. I'm in Ubuntu 10.04 64bit.
[04:35] <iceroot> fxfitz: have a look at man interfaces, there are examples
[04:36] <aristo> then, inside that folder, go to boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:36] <fxfitz> iceroot: Yeah, just found it. ;-)
[04:36] <iceroot> fxfitz: if i am correct you have to call /etc/init.d/networking restart after
[04:36] <aristo> then you can use ifup a ifdown fxfitz
[04:36] <mrklean> aristo, oh I forgot to include that, yeah I am cd'ing into /media/disk-2/boot/grub
[04:36] <fxfitz> aristo: Got it.
[04:37] <_SKiTZO> latest version of ubuntu needs service networking restart instead
[04:37] <lukehasnoname> Hi, guys. In my "Appearance" tab, when I try to change the theme from the "custom" theme, it won't let me. I click on another theme and instead of loading it, the system "merges" the two themes into a bastardized "custom" theme.
[04:37] <mrklean> aristo, now the file opens but it still is read only even with sudo gedit
[04:37] <fxfitz> Well, gents, I'm going to test it out now. I'll let you know in a few mins how it goes. ;-)
[04:37] <harmandeep> hi guys
[04:37] <iceroot> !who | _SKiTZO
[04:37] <harmandeep> Guys , can we chainload Grub from Grub2 ?
[04:37] <niccoli> hey all, Im on a laptop and my trackpad is real buggy, so I was wondering if there is a way to disable my trackpad?
[04:37] <harmandeep> Grub2 is on /dev/sda and Grub is on /dev/sda9
[04:37] <harmandeep> on /dev/sda9 --- Fedora is installaed ( with bootloader )
[04:38] <_SKiTZO> iceroot: tx for the headsup :)
[04:38] <harmandeep>  i wanna chainload to Grub
[04:38] <lukehasnoname> niccoli, it's in mouse options
[04:38] <PythonPup> Howdy.  Is there a way to get rid of tooltips in gedit.  They never are useful and frequently get in the way.
[04:38] <harmandeep> i had tried a bit , but none works
[04:38] <MaRk-I> !grub2 | harmandeep
[04:39] <aristo> mrklean, that's weird
[04:39] <_SKiTZO> harmandeep: what do you want to chaniload to grub?
[04:42] <Wanwan> alternatively, is there a way to completely wipe my hard drive and start from scratch? :P
[04:42] <harmandeep> Fedora i.e /dev/sda9
[04:42] <niccoli> lukehasnoname, where is it in mouse options; all I see is to disable scrolling and disable while typing.  I want to disable the touchpad completely.
[04:42] <aristo> Wanwan, format disk
[04:42] <PythonPup> Wanman, just start a new install.  Tell it to use the whole drive and everything will be formatted freshly.
[04:42] <lukehasnoname> I thought it was there anyway...
[04:42] <mrklean> aristo, I did sudo su and gedit grub.cfg, still read only, any ideas?
[04:43] <Wanwan> PythonPup: new install from where?
[04:43] <Chaorain> hi, I need ato install Mythbuntu 8.10 via a flash drive (long story) does some one know where I can get Mythbuntu 8.10 torrent?
[04:43] <PythonPup> A Cd is the most common method.
[04:43] <Chaorain> I found the alternate install but will that give me a gui?
[04:43] <aristo> mrklean, well you can create a mount point at fstab with rw permission
[04:43] <_SKiTZO> wanwan: to COMPLETELY wipe a disk i usually do cat /dev/zero > /dev/sda where sda is my disk
[04:43] <abadabad00> Need help getting my Soundblaster Audigy 4 to use 7.1 speakers. I'm in Ubuntu 10.04 64bit.
[04:43] <PythonPup> Chaorain, yes.  I almost always use the alternate install cd.
[04:44] <_SKiTZO> Wanwan: that is seldom necessary though
[04:44] <ANowlin> I have an old desktop running Ubu 10.04 LTS Server.  It runs Virtualmin, BIND, Appache, MySQL, PHP4/PHP5, Ulteo, and other associated packeges.  Today, while working on it via telnet, it suddenly goes non-responsive.  Unable to ping the eth0 interface's static IP.  I rebooted twice, with no luck.  Any ideas whats happened? (Yes, the NIC is fine.  Already tested. No, DHCP server is not getting a request for an IP)
[04:45] <Chaorain> PythonPup: ok, is there a specific program I should use to put the image on the flash drive? (I'm currently on Windows but can switch to linux)
[04:45] <thune3> niccoli: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad says touchpad can be temp disabled with "synclient TouchpadOff=1" command, or permanently disabled by uninstalling xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
[04:45] <aristo> Anowlin, iptables?
[04:45] <PythonPup> Chaorain, yes.
[04:45] <ANowlin> iptables as in? (Keep in mind, I'm not a linux guru, but know enough of the ropes to be dangerous)
[04:45] <aristo> ANowlin, and why telnet, you should use ssh
[04:46] <ANowlin> telnet because I haven't configured ssh yet.
[04:46] <PythonPup> Chaorain, I haven't used it, but there is an installer for USB drives in the menu once you are up.
[04:46] <_SKiTZO> ANowlin: ssh > telent, i wouldnt even trust a box with open telnet
[04:46] <lfitz> hi this is the NFS error I am having: http://lfitz.bravehost.com/nfs-error.html
[04:46] <aristo> ANowlin, iptables controls you firewall rules
[04:46] <Chaorain> PythonPup: sorry I ment useing a usb instead of a cd to install
[04:46] <wilmoore> I've just installed ubuntu from the minimal CDROM as an ssh-server only. What console packages are needed to make "less" look "normal"?
[04:47] <aristo> ANowlin, can you ping it?
[04:47] <PythonPup> It is possible.  Sure.
[04:47] <puff> I'm having trouble getting my thinkpad t43p to boot this karmic live CD.
[04:47] <ANowlin> Oh, as far as firewall, 80, 443, 53, 21, 22, 23, 10000-100100 (Virtualmin), and 20000(Virtualmin) ports are open.  Unable to ping.
[04:47] <puff> The CD passed a media check (booted it on a desktop).
[04:47] <wilmoore> In other words, I have no highlighting or anything in less.
[04:47] <_SKiTZO> ANowlin: since its allready comprimised you could always flush the firewall completely and see if that helps with iptables -F
[04:47] <puff> The BIOS settings seem to be correct.
[04:47] <puff> Help?
[04:48] <_SKiTZO> puff: where does it sop?
[04:48] <_SKiTZO> stop
[04:48] <niccoli> thune3, when I entered the command it gave me response "Unable to find a synaptics device."
[04:48] <PythonPup> Boot the live CD and run the USB creator.  That's what I'd try.
[04:48] <phobos_anomaly> Are there any maintainers of the *part libs in here?
[04:48] <ANowlin> I'll have to mess with it from work tomorrow.  I'll have to gain physical access (again), which means old CRT monitor and find a working keyboard.
[04:48] <puff> _SKiTZO: Well, so far I've rebooted about five times.  Other than the second time, it goes to the existing edgy install.
[04:48] <sebsebseb> !8.10 | Chaorain
[04:49] <_SKiTZO> puff: just temporarily disalbe hd from boot selection in the bios
[04:49] <ANowlin> I just don't know why it would crap out on me randomly.
[04:49] <Chaorain> sebsebseb: yeah I know, I'm trying to get old hardware to work. It worked on 8.10
[04:49] <puff> _SKiTZO: The second time, I held down the "Access IBM" key on my thinkpad, which is the BIOS key.  BIOS/startup/boot seems to be in the proper order, the hard drive is seven or eighth, 1) USB drive, 2) floppy drive, 3) CD.
[04:49] <sebsebseb> Chaorain: 8.04 is still supported
[04:50] <sebsebseb> Chaorain: untill the end of April next year
[04:50] <puff> _SKiTZO: Okay, I'll try that.
[04:50] <Chaorain> sebsebseb: not sure if it will work
[04:50] <_SKiTZO> puff: im not familiar with the t43 but you could try getting a bootr media menu
[04:50] <thune3> niccoli: what does " xinput list" show for your touchpad?
[04:50] <_SKiTZO> puff: exactly
[04:50] <_SKiTZO> just do that again
[04:51] <niccoli> thune3, virtual core pointer
[04:51] <Chaorain> unless, does anyone know of a list of TV tunners that work ith Mythbuntu
[04:52] <fxfitz> iceroot: LOL well that didn't work out so well
[04:53] <ANowlin> Chaorain: I've messed with it a littlebit in a VMWare machine.  I believe there is a selection (from quite a long list) that shows what it works with.  Might check the Mythbuntu site as well.
[04:54] <switch10_> anyone know how to open the keyboard shortcut GUI from the command line?  There is a bug in jolicloud, an Ubuntu based netbook distro, and I want to see what is going on.
[04:54] <Loshki> Chaorain: see also #mythtv-users
[04:55] <_SKiTZO> ANowlin: the reason it doesnt always work is probably because the cd drive spends more time "settling" than the timeout for the boot manager in the bios wants to wait
[04:55] <fxfitz> aristo: Sooo it didn't work.
[04:55] <ANowlin> _SKiTZO: Huh?
[04:55] <fxfitz> aristo: Did you say I needed to edit the resolv.conf file?
[04:55] <ANowlin> I switched chanels for a sec
[04:56] <aristo> fxfitz, yes you need to add nameserver XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
[04:56] <aristo> replace XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX with you isp dns address
[04:56] <_SKiTZO> ANowlin: nm. i was talking about why booting from cd doesnt always work
[04:56] <fxfitz> aristo: But my ISP's DNS servers are already in there. :(
[04:57] <ANowlin> _SKiTZO: Its alright.
[04:57] <aristo> hmm
[04:57] <aristo> can you ping your gw?
[04:58] <techzg> on ubuntu 9.10, on every boot I have to disable bluetooth and re-enable wireless network to get connected to internet. Is there a way to fix this please?
[04:59] <lfitz> hi i posted this info on a website to allow easier reference to solve the problem.  NFS says /path does not support NFS export when I start the service. http://lfitz.bravehost.com/nfs-error.html
[04:59] <fxfitz> aristo: Hang on, I'm actually on irssi from the server I'm trying to change. :-P
[04:59] <fxfitz> (bad setup right now, I know hehe)
[04:59] <Chaorain> how long is 10.04 supported?
[05:00] <_SKiTZO> i think since its lts its 3 years
[05:00] <xangua> Chaorain: 3 years desktop 5 server
[05:00] <Chaorain> lol, 3 years will work
[05:00] <Chaorain> time for a new comp by then
[05:01] <Chaorain> considering its probably 3 years old already
[05:01] <techzg> on ubuntu 10.04, on every boot I have to disable bluetooth and re-enable wireless network to get connected to internet. Is there a way to fix this please?
[05:01] <puff> _SKiTZO: Bleah... okay, that didn't work.
[05:01] <_SKiTZO> puff: what happened?
[05:01] <puff> _SKiTZO: I just tried completely excuding the HDD from the boot order, it still booted off the HDD.
[05:01] <_SKiTZO> heh that was odd
[05:02] <aristo> techzg, i think you can auto enable wireless by right click on it and edit settings
[05:02] <_SKiTZO> puff: how about using that blue access button again?
[05:02] <puff> _SKiTZO: I noticed a bit in the BIOS about enabling the F12 key to pop up a boot selection menu, so I tried that.  f12, got the list of devices, selected CD, nope, still booted off the HD.
[05:02] <puff> _SKiTZO: The blue butto bascially just gets me into the BIOS menu.
[05:02] <aristo> and bluetooth go to Sistem -> preferences -> startup programs (or something like that)
[05:03] <puff> _SKiTZO: Well, it pops up a menu with "ESC to continue, F1 to get into BIOS, F2 to select startup device".
[05:03] <techzg> aristo, the wireless networks get discovered when i disable bluetooth
[05:03] <aristo> i have my desktop on spanish so i don't know how is exactly in english
[05:03] <fxfitz_> aristo: Well, I was able to get it working with ifconfig!!
[05:03] <puff> I'm suspecting I may have to download and burn the alternate install CD.
[05:03] <_SKiTZO> puff: is the CD itself put into the slot properly? atleast my w700 and x60 tablet hase removable cdroms
[05:03] <aristo> fxfitz_ congrats
[05:03] <fxfitz_> aristo: The problem before was that the default gateway was deleted. :(
[05:03] <Motilon> Hi, im geting error: unknown filesystem. grub rescue> what can I do???
[05:03] <puff> _SKiTZO: Seems to be in the slot okay, rotates freely.
[05:03] <puff> _SKiTZO: Well heck.
[05:04] <fxfitz_> aristo: Yeah. But I can't seem to get my interfaces file to work correctly. And /etc/init.d/networking restart doesn't seem to work. :(
[05:04] <_SKiTZO> puff: i ment the cdrom drives.. not the platters
[05:04] <fxfitz_> aristo: So I've been restarting the computer every time I had to test (a pain)
[05:04] <puff> _SKiTZO: I just opened and closed the CD, and it popped up the "You have just inserted a blank CD".  Which is weird, since it actually did boot the once.
[05:04] <puff> _SKiTZO: The drive should be fine.  I burned the CD with this drive.
[05:04] <puff> Sihg.
[05:05] <aristo> fxfitx, there is a way to configure it for ifup
[05:05] <_SKiTZO> puff: sure you did not at one point remove the cd and put in anoter one by mistake? :P
[05:05] <aristo> so when interface is linked up it will reconfigure
[05:05] <fxfitz_> aristo: Hmmm
[05:05] <_SKiTZO> puff: does it manage to boot of other cds?
[05:06] <aristo> but can't remember exactly which file you need to edit
[05:06] <puff> _SKiTZO: Dunno, this is the only one I have.
[05:06] <aristo> but you can always google it
[05:06] <puff> _SKiTZO: The only live CD I have.
[05:06] <aristo> ^^
[05:06] <Motilon> Hi, I cant access anyy OS. im geting error: unknown filesystem. grub rescue> what can I do???
[05:07] <puff> _SKiTZO: Hm, googling on: ubuntu karmic live CD thinkpad
[05:07] <puff> _SKiTZO: It suggests I'm not the only one :-).
[05:08] <puff> http://www.paulchaplin.com/blog/ubuntu-karmic-9-10-install-issues-on-thinkpad-t42-t41-t40-etc
[05:08] <techzg> the default command for 'network applet' is nm-applet --sm-disable. Is it correct?
[05:09] <kunji> Was gnome-mount removed for 10.04?
[05:09] <fxfitz> aristo: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/
[05:09] <techzg> for startup applications preferences: for network applet, is the command nm-applet --sm-disable?
[05:10] <fxfitz> aristo: Does that look like what you're talking about? The first paragraph sounds a bit like what you were saying.
[05:11] <abadabad00> Need help getting my Soundblaster Audigy 4 to use 7.1 speakers. I'm in Ubuntu 10.04 64bit.
[05:12] <alec_> hello everybody
[05:12] <Blue1> is there a way to make nautilus display all the mounted devices?
[05:12] <aristo> fxfitz, yes that's it
[05:13] <alec_> is anyone here
[05:13] <aristo> o/ alec_
[05:13]  * aristo brb
[05:13] <kunji> alec_: there's 1334 people here.
[05:14] <kunji> 1335 now
[05:14] <alec_> that's a lot of people
[05:14] <red2kic> What package am I looking for language support? I'm seeing missing characters, I believe.
[05:14] <alec_> im new to irc
[05:14] <_SKiTZO> i cant find my harddisk when booted from livecd. any ideas how i can go about probing it manually?
[05:14] <red2kic> !hi | alec_
[05:14] <alec_> how do you tell how many people are here
[05:14] <kunji> red2kic: thanks
[05:15] <loganhatesmath> algebra one course ??
[05:15] <red2kic> _SKiTZO: "sudo fdisk -l" -- Try that.
[05:15] <techzg> for startup applications preferences: for network applet, is the command nm-applet --sm-disable?
[05:15] <loganhatesmath> money ?
[05:15] <iflema> Blue1 if the partition is mounted under /media it will show up.... if its mounted under /mnt i will not show
[05:15] <loganhatesmath> anyone?
[05:15] <_SKiTZO> red2kic: that shows nothing
[05:16] <alec_> is flash 10.1 working with 64 bit ubuntu
[05:16] <red2kic> techzg: "nm-applet --sm-disable"
[05:16] <kunji> alec_: I use Pidgin as my IRC client and it displays the number of people and all their usernames on the right hand side, so it depends on what client you're using, though I think there is also a way to request it from the server via the IRC protocal, though I'm not sure what that would be.
[05:16] <_SKiTZO> alec_: depends on your irc client. most list all the people on the right.
[05:17] <techzg> red, nm-applet --sm-disable is correct?
[05:17] <alec_> thanks i just installed irssi and was curious

[05:20] <Blue1> iflema: iow I have to go to 2 places to get the information - places, then nautilus - I want places to show up when I open nautilus
[05:21] <iflema> Blue1 yeah... in nautilus does it just show folders in the left pane?
[05:21] <Blue1> iflema: correct just folders

[05:56] <Motilon> BinaryMan> got it, thanks again!
[05:57] <Roky> How do you guys like it?
[05:57] <Sam_Fisher> Roky, It Rocks
[05:58] <christmo> Hi, I have this error when I startup my Ubuntu 10.04, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/460486/plain/ . I must exit to the console to start ubuntu normally
[05:58] <BinaryMan> Motilon: shout back if that doesn't help.
[05:58] <Roky> Sam_Fisher: I'm thinking of trying it out. Just came back to The Buntu after being with arch for almost a year. heh. I enjoyed it. but I just couldn
[05:58] <Roky>  get anyone to try it :P
[05:58] <d9500> roky, which new interface? you mean gnome-shell?
[05:59] <christmo> What should I do to no longer leave this console?
[05:59] <Roky> d9500: no,unity interface
[05:59] <Sam_Fisher> iflema, Which #ubuntu are we being saved to?
[05:59] <aristo> isn't unity for netbooks?
[05:59] <d9500> Roky, I'm running 10.10 here, but not unity. Isn't that one mainly for netbooks and instant-on environments?
[06:00] <iflema> Sam_Fisher #ubuntu :)
[06:00] <iflema> Sam_Fisher its there look again
[06:00] <ezzieyguywuf> I am trying and failing miserably to get squid running. "start squid" results in "job failed to start". I am doing it as root and I have configured squid.conf
[06:00] <Roky> d9500: You have to install unity yourself. it's not pre-installed by default. They want to see what everyone thinks about it before they push it out, and make a major change like that. Check out some videos of it on youtube bro. It really is pretty great.
[06:01] <d9500> Roky, what's the install command? sudo apt-get install unity-desktop?
[06:01] <iflema> Sam_Fisher its like 10th from the bottom......
[06:02] <Roky> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook-unity I think is what it is d9500
[06:03] <CalicoJack> question: If i update the linux kernel through the ubuntu update manager, will it kill a custom wifi driver that I installed from source?
[06:03] <d9500> I'd try it but I'm not on  a netbook..wonder if it would work as well on  a desktop.
[06:03] <Roky> d9500: check this link out. it will tell you how
[06:03] <Flomaster> hello I am looking for some help installing an audio driver for my Zotac Ionitx-g-e synergy motherboard I have the instructions but they aren't very detailed

[06:03] <aravind__> hi all,i'd installed my new ubuntu yesterday and i'm experiencing an unstable internet connection since then
[06:03] <Sam_Fisher> iflema, I found it but oddly I am not showing up. I asked about the nautilus search and something else earlier and neither is there.
[06:03] <Roky> d9500: I am pretty sure, that it will be ported to the desktop environment as well....Eventually. But at least we desktop users /laptop users can use it.
[06:04] <iflema> Sam_Fisher youll have to wait an hour or two for recent activity or use logs of ya irc app...
[06:04] <bullgard> aravind__: Please report any error messages. "an unstable internet connection" is not precise enough to help you.
[06:04] <Roasted_> does anybody have any experience running freeradius on ubuntu?
[06:04] <ezzieyguywuf> anyone? help on this squid thing? "squid start" results in "job failed to start". any way to get verbose output?
[06:04] <Sam_Fisher> iflema, ok thanks. Do you use Xchat?
[06:04] <iflema> Sam_Fisher xchat has /lastlog you can view logs in the xchat gui
[06:05] <aravind__> bullgard: it says 'server not found'...well i'd been using fedora before where i had no such problems,im hoping to resolve this soon!
[06:05] <iflema> Sam_Fisher do   /lastlog Sam_Fisher
[06:05] <Roky> Roasted_: What did ya need?
[06:05] <Sam_Fisher> iflema, thanks again
[06:05] <Roasted_> Roky, I just wanted to pick at someone whos set it up. I got the task of setting one up and I cant seem to find as much documentation on it as I like.
[06:06] <Roky> Roasted_: I understand your pain. heh. You do know that your going to need a somewhat prereq of knowing bits of mysql to setup it up yes?
[06:06] <Roky> set it up*
[06:07] <Roasted_> Roky, well, yes - but I'm not entirely doing this alone. the network admin knows more about mysql than me, but hes less experienced in linux than I am, so were both kind of tag teaming it.
[06:07] <bullgard> aravind__: Yes. Your two messages combined make it a bit clearer what might be the cause. But it is still not enough information to help you out. Because "server not found" may be caused by many things.
[06:07] <Roasted_> Roky, we had a microsoft radius server set up, but theres an open bug MS has yet to fix which effects us greatly, so we need to find alternatives - and freeradius sounds to be a good one since uses said the MS bug doesn texist in freeradius
[06:07] <Roky> Roasted_: Right on, glad to see some teamwork. First off make sure you have mysql-server mysql-client setup.
[06:08] <Roasted_> Roky, okay, so just install mysql straigh from the repos
[06:08] <Roky> users?
[06:08] <ringer2> anybody know of a good gui for maintaing the defalt ufw firewall application
[06:08] <Roky> Roasted_: yep
[06:08] <Roasted_> Roky, do I need any users besides, say, administrator?
[06:08] <kiamo> Hi, what port does samba use?
[06:08] <Roasted_> Roky, we will be authenticating roughly (to throw out a padded number) 1,500 laptops.
[06:08] <CalicoJack> Does anyone know if i update the linux kernel through the ubuntu update manager, will it kill a custom wifi driver that I installed from source?
[06:09] <Flomaster> hello I am looking for some help installing an audio driver for my Zotac Ionitx-g-e synergy motherboard I have the instructions but they aren't very detailed
[06:09] <Roky> Roasted_: Okay, you shouldn't need too.
[06:09] <maco> CalicoJack: yes, youll need to recompile the driver
[06:09] <wrinkliez> is there a way to tell what packages are inside a virtual package?
[06:09] <Sam_Fisher> CalicoJack, I don't think so.  Where you guys work? heh
[06:09] <Roasted_> Roky, school district.
[06:09] <CalicoJack> maco Sam_Fisher, i'm getting two different answers here >.<
[06:09] <Roky> Roasted_: I see the need for urgency. heh
[06:09] <Roasted_> Roky, were hoping to use this 1 server for all 7 schools.
[06:09] <aravind__> bullgard: well...i cannot successfully connect to websites,google works fine(it maybe because its ip is cached),and certain others like facebook too work good
[06:10] <Roasted_> Roky, well we were using standard WPA2 security
[06:10] <CalicoJack> maco I think you are right, though. Thank you for your help.
[06:10] <Roasted_> Roky, but high school students tend to get slick with the tools they find on the internet - couple that with usb flash drives and bingo bango - they can dig up the key without too much effort.
[06:10] <aravind__> bullgard: i just cant connect to other websites,i'm guessing its a dns issue?
[06:10] <Roasted_> Roky, so were hoping to take the key out of the equation with hardware authentication (this is where the network admin comes in and I tend to step back)
[06:10] <BinaryMan> Roasted_: Try WPA + RADIUS?
[06:10] <Roasted_> Roky, I'm just involved cause of my huge linux interest :P
[06:11] <drew212> how do i make a folder not need root privelages?
[06:11] <BinaryMan> Roasted_: I'm 21 and in college. I used to be one of those high school students you're thinking of. :)
[06:11] <drew212> i know its chown, but i forget how to make it work
[06:11] <Roky> Roasted_ : well the radius server will support 128bit WEP rekeying every N seconds...sooo doubt your kiddies are that smart. lol
[06:11] <Roasted_> BinaryMan, I honestly cant tell you if we had or not. Weve done a lot of different things, but all of the radius options have had the same problem - after 30 days, they dont reauthenticate and need to be plugged in to re-authenticate properly. This is a known bug with MS Radius - which is why we dumped it in hopes of using freeradius (something users say works better anyway)
[06:11] <bullgard> aravind__: I also believe that this is a DNS issue
[06:11] <Roasted_> BinaryMan, I hear ya - Im 24 years old and been @ this place of work for just over 2 years now. I was one of those little punks too :P
[06:12] <kiamo> How do I see what IP my laptop is using on the wireless?  is it eth0?  Or should I look somewhere else?
[06:12] <Roasted_> BinaryMan, it gives me an advantage, in my opinion. My relatively young age in the field working in a high school is a unique combo since I tend to be quicker to pick up on potential security holes than others since it wasnt long ago I was in those shoes.
[06:12] <pehden> chanmode "+mnsdt-k"   does this mean invite only
[06:12] <Roasted_> kiamo, right lcick network manager - connection information, OR in terminal run ifconfig
[06:13] <Roasted_> Roky, hahaha yeah, good point.
[06:13] <BinaryMan> Roasted_: I know exactly what you're talking about.
[06:13] <Roasted_> Roky, anyway, I take it youve set up freeradius before?  Muahaha!  And not knowing how to configure it properly could lead too disastrous results.
[06:13] <kiamo> isnt that just for ethernet, or does the wifi use that as well?
[06:14] <BinaryMan> kiamo: No, it doesn't. It'll list all network adapters, even virtual/pseduo ones.
[06:14] <Roasted_> Roky, we're setting this up while letting our current security in place, so if it backfires, we can pull the plug and revert to what we've been using.
[06:14] <Roky> Roasted_: I have played with it a few times. Some friends of mine use it and have configured it multiple times. They call me in to "test" it xD
[06:14] <Roasted_> Roky, we're reimaging all laptops this summer, so what'll happen is we'll set up 2 SSID's in the mix with the proper settings. If the freeradius bombs on us, we just disable that SSID and the laptops re-vert accordingly.
[06:15] <Roky> I know the basics of the configuration. But after that your kind on your own bro.
[06:15] <Roasted_> Roky, I'm all about backups and plan B/C/D's :P
[06:15] <kiamo> BinaryMan, I only see eth0, eth1, and lo.  The wifi will be one of those then?
[06:15] <freezway> i installed lmms by compiling it (i wanted 0.4.6) but it didn't work correctly. how do i remove it. sudo make uninstall doesn't work
[06:15] <Roasted_> kiamo, mor ethan likely its eth1
[06:15] <Roky> Roasted_: You need to be in a world like this. hehe
[06:15] <Roasted_> Roky, so anyway, I know I need kerberos, samba, and mysql - right?
[06:15] <kiamo> ok, thanks :)
[06:15] <Roasted_> along with freeradius of course
[06:15] <hotfloppy> hello guys.. Wine menu on my application menu has been disappeared.. ive open menu editor but its missing in there too.. how to make it re-appear on application menu ?
[06:15] <Roky> wpasupplicant as well
[06:15] <BinaryMan> kiamo: Probably eth1.
[06:16] <kiamo> thanks guys :)
[06:16] <Roasted_> Roky, thats not installed by default?
[06:16] <BinaryMan> kiamo: iwconfig will tell you which is the wireless adapter.
[06:16] <MaRk-I> freezway: are you invoking that comand inside the lmms folder?
[06:16] <MaRk-I> command**
[06:17] <Roky> Roasted_: It might be, It's been awhile since I have used Ubuntu to be honest. But it's more the program your interested in that Ubuntu. So it's not much differant.
[06:17] <Roky> I'm on Arch Linux as of the moment.
[06:17] <Roasted_> Roky, I have minimal PHPMyAdmin experience from using Wordpress - can I use PHPMyAdmin to add my administrator MySQL user, etc?
[06:17] <freezway> MaRk-I, yes
[06:18] <Roasted_> Roky, yeah, I know - were just using Ubuntu since its my happy place :P
[06:18] <Roasted_> Roky, we have 2 other Ubuntu servers in place that have done very well, so it made sense to stay consistent
[06:18] <vaibhav> how can i get support of opengl in ubuntu
[06:18] <Roky> Roasted_: It's all our happy places. When everything else fails use buntu. haha.
[06:18] <Aciid> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+package/pornview
