[05:58] <genii-around> crackerjackz: if in same directory usually: ./filename       works. If no shebang in the file might need: sh ./filename
[05:58] <freedom_linux> crackerjackz: i used yet
[05:58] <crackerjackz> genii-around, ty
[05:58] <freedom_linux> crackerjackz: but not create the folder
[05:58] <genii-around> crackerjackz: You're welcome
[05:59] <crackerjackz> freedom_linux, try #ubuntu-pt i think it is
[05:59] <freedom_linux> crackerjackz: nobody response
[05:59] <Jon--> I am having an issue combining gnome-panel and conky's panel. #conky has not been helpful (everyone idle I guess). Short video of problem: http://www.screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cXfjfloSL
[05:59] <crackerjackz> freedom_linux, looks like no ones there... i can use a translator if you like?
[06:00] <Jon--> I want to be able to do the following: 1) Not have a window maximized hide what conky is displaying. use_window_mode panel does this. 2) Still be able to bring up my gnome-panel at the top... Conky blocks this.
[06:00] <samuy> VIA Technologies, Inc. CN896/VN896/P4M900 [Chrome 9 HC] (rev 01)
[06:01] <Khisanth> Jon--: can't you just have conky as one bar and then the panel as another bar below it with?
[06:01] <Khisanth> that seems to work fine with two panels
[06:02] <Jon--> Khisanth, That may work, however how can I get the gnome-panel to go right below? When I click and drag it has to go quite a bit down my screen, can't seem to move it just a little bit
[06:02] <samuy> awake atlast?
[06:02] <samuy> are u there?
[06:02] <Khisanth> hmm
[06:02] <Awake_Atlast> tea' sorry bud was doin research. total noob to linux
[06:03] <Khisanth> Jon--: that would require some digging
[06:03] <samuy> how i can update my hardware
[06:03] <Jon--> Khisanth, Haha. ;).
[06:03] <Jon--> I could also maybe do some fancy compiz-config window hacking
[06:03] <Jon--> To make it so the non panel-moded conky stops windows from maximizing over top of them
[06:03] <Jon--> I'm open to any solution that someone may have
[06:04] <samuy> in the page of via doesnt appear ubuntu 10.10
[06:05] <samuy> i dowload a file .tar.bz2
[06:05] <ohsix> Jon--: re: changing desktop area, wmctrl can apparently change it, with the -o and -g parameters
[06:05] <samuy> how install this file
[06:05] <samuy> ?
[06:05] <Awake_Atlast> Try updatin ubuntu then running restricted
[06:05] <Awake_Atlast> you have to open it with a uncompressor
[06:05] <Awake_Atlast> like winrar
[06:05] <samuy> ok then?
[06:06] <samuy> cose i dowload a driver beta
[06:06] <Awake_Atlast> I dont know /
[06:06] <Khisanth> Jon--: are you trying that with window_mode set to panel?
[06:06] <Khisanth> the dragging
[06:06] <milamber> !bz2 | samuy
[06:06] <samuy> yes i know that but
[06:06] <Jon--> Khisanth, yeah.
[06:06] <samuy> how install the files in there
[06:07] <Jon--> Khisanth, That's the issue is that window_mode set to panel block gnome_panel
[06:07] <milamber> samuy: it depends on what you have downloaded.
[06:07] <samuy> can i gibe u the link so u can see?
[06:07] <milamber> samuy: sure

[06:08] <samuy> i download
[06:08] <Awake_Atlast> try that, it might help. Lets you download windows drivers
[06:08] <genii-around> Holy long URL Batman!
[06:08] <urgodfather> i have a question
[06:08] <Awake_Atlast> Yea / its a native ruski site
[06:08] <urgodfather> im a b00n to linux
[06:09] <samuy> milamber
[06:09] <samuy> please
[06:09] <Awake_Atlast> Nice, hah. Kinda cool being born again
[06:09] <samuy> download the file and explain to me
[06:09] <samuy> how can i install
[06:09] <milamber> samuy: did you read the README file?
[06:09] <samuy> yes
[06:10] <milamber> samuy: which part is not working and what is the error message you are getting?
[06:10] <samuy> my games are to slow
[06:10] <milamber> !who | Awake_Atlast, samuy
[06:10] <urgodfather> is it possible to boot using generic driver until after splash screen, then switch from generic to proprietary
[06:11] <samuy> (ubottu) hi
[06:11] <zee313> is there any software  for live tv channels in ubuntu.  like "Readon " in windows
[06:11] <Awake_Atlast> samuy, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks#Working
[06:11] <Awake_Atlast> review that wiki. It should solve your issue bud.
[06:12] <MK`> Is it easy to move /tmp, /var, etc. to separate partitions using a livecd?
[06:12] <urgodfather> zee313: look up zattoo
[06:14] <Khisanth> Jon--: but if it's under that shouldn't be a problem
[06:14] <milamber> MK`: are you repartitioning or just moving?
[06:14] <urgodfather> zee313: if that doesnt suit you, consider wine and then install readon
[06:14] <bjgr> hey ohsix. I have updated the bios now, but I don't think that worked. The update involved usb, freedos and wine (not drinking) so that was just great!
[06:15] <MK`> I know how to repartition it, so I guess just moving it after I do that
[06:15] <milamber> MK`: if you already know how to repartition it shouldn't be bad.
[06:15] <urgodfather> can someone please answer my question?
[06:15] <Jon--> Khisanth, Agreed but how do I set the Y axis of the gnome panel in a text file? Click and drag moves it a LARGE distance the first time it moves.
[06:15] <Jon--> Like.. nearly underneath my window title large
[06:15] <Jon--> I'd be accidentally mousing over it a lot
[06:15] <urgodfather> or point me the right way
[06:16] <milamber> MK`: this is for the home directory, but still relevant
[06:16] <milamber> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving
[06:16] <MK`> yeah I read that. Is it the same for the other ones?
[06:16] <bjgr> ohsix, now i'll look at that bug report to see if I can figure out what they are saying
[06:16] <Jon--> How do I run multiple commands in a bash script that won't terminate?
[06:16] <Jon--> Trying to run two conky files, but my script waits until one is terminated before running the second D:
[06:16] <Jon--> There has to be a way to do this without writing two bash files...
[06:17] <milamber> Jon--: adding the ampersand should cause the program to launch into the background
[06:17] <Jon--> milamber, durrrrr
[06:17] <Jon--> My bad
[06:17] <Jon--> I didn't think you needed that when you weren't on an interactive terminal
[06:18] <ohsix> bjgr: heh nice, bummer it didn't fix it
[06:18] <seba> Hi I need your help
[06:19]  * urgodfather must be invisible

[06:21] <Awake_Atlast> can i use my fingerprint as my password whle registering on irc NickServ?
[06:23] <Jon--> Awake_Atlast, You best be trollin ;).  Haha.  Probably not.
[06:23] <Awake_Atlast> Nah / im not.,.
[06:23] <milamber> ruan: sounds like you are getting closer, some googlefu came up w/ this: http://lifehacker.com/#!111166/how-to-use-gmail-as-your-smtp-server
[06:23] <soreau> Awake_Atlast: ask in #freenode
[06:24] <ruan> ok i configured it myself and got it working
[06:24] <Awake_Atlast> Ruan, go to google.com. Log into your emsil account and click settings. it will basically reverse set it
[06:24] <ruan> i did. just had to fill in settings for smtp on thunderbird
[06:25] <urgodfather> how do i change from one graphics driver to another during bootup?
[06:25] <urgodfather> is it possible?
[06:25] <urgodfather> anyone?
[06:25] <bullgard4> By default nc is a softlink to /bin/nc.openbsd. What alternatives to that allows the »Alternatives« system?

[06:26] <bjgr> This bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/270123 talks about DSDT. I can't find any DSDT on my laptop. Anyone has any suggestions to where I can find it?
[06:30] <UBuxuBU> good morning ubuntu
[06:35] <Jon--> RAGE.
[06:35] <Jon--> own_window_hints below
[06:35] <Jon--> problem solved.
[06:36] <bullgard4> bjgr: You might find it in dmsg. Read more about the ACPI specification to back up your background.
[06:36] <bullgard4> bjgr: You might find it in dmesg. Read more about the ACPI specification to back up your background.
[06:39] <jhf_> I have a video (ogv) and when I use vlc on it it shows a yellow face just for a second -- any ideas ?
[06:39] <jhf_> then plays the video
[06:40] <bullgard4> jhf_: My idea is that this is part of the initializing routine.
[06:41] <ckwalsh> Anyone have any success with pptp vpns on Ubuntu 10.10?
[06:41] <ckwalsh> It appears the network-manager-pptp package requires a helper binary
[06:41] <ckwalsh> /usr/bin/nm-ppp-starter or something like that
[06:41] <ckwalsh> but it's missing and I don't know where to find it
[06:41] <jhf_> bullgard4,  only happens with that one video
[06:42] <bjgr> bullgard4, dmesg says: [    0.000000] ACPI: DSDT 000000007f68838c 06796 (v02 IEC___ S11_____ 06040000 INTL 20050624)
[06:42] <bullgard4> jhf_: I have no idea why this appears only with this one video.
[06:42] <bjgr> bullgard4, and [    0.361693] ACPI: EC: Look up EC in DSDT
[06:43] <bjgr> bullgard4, does that mean anything to you
[06:43] <bullgard4> bjgr: Yes.
[06:43] <violets> hi
[06:44] <bjgr> bullgard4, that's great :-)
[06:44] <bjgr> bullgard4, can I get the dsdt table (or what ever it is) from that?
[06:45] <bullgard4> bjgr: I don't know. You did not give enough details.
[06:45] <atpa8a_> hello
[06:46] <atpa8a> hmm
[06:46] <atpa8a> what order do K sysv scripts execute?
[06:47] <violets> atpa8a: using the numbers in the symlink name, in increasing order
[06:47] <atpa8a> so... K18 will shutdown earlier then K81, right?
[06:47] <violets> should do, yes
[06:48] <atpa8a> strange...
[06:48] <ry> is there any reason i wouldnt have a xorg.conf under /etc in ubuntu 10.10?
[06:48] <atpa8a> may be not...
[06:49] <ry> (looking over some stuff trying to get my apple magic touchpad working)
[06:49] <milamber> ry: no xorg.conf in a long time
[06:49] <bjgr> bullgard4, OK... the bug report I linked earlier has an instruction to do the following: sudo cat /proc/acpi/dsdt > dsdt.dat
[06:49] <violets> ry: Ubuntu doesn't make an xorg.conf by default any more.
[06:49] <ry> ahh
[06:49] <ry> this guide is from like 6 months ago
[06:49] <ry> is it optional to generate or what?
[06:49] <yinee-gay> 中文在哪个频道？
[06:49] <ry> where would i locate the same settings?
[06:49] <violets> ry: if you make one, it'll use it
[06:49] <milamber> ry: it is optional
[06:49] <bjgr> bullgard4, but my system doesn't have that dsdt part under /proc. So now I'm look for alternative ways to get it
[06:50] <milamber> ry: you can create your own, but there is not one by default

[06:50] <Awake_Atlast> Ah hah! My first homebrew project is a SUCCESS!
[06:51] <yinee-gay> thanks
[06:51] <jasonmchristos>  QUESTION: where on freenode would I go to get fractal screensavers that run indefinitly for ubuntu preferrable, thoght I would ask because this is a developer network
[06:52] <violets> !info electricsheep | jasonmchristos
[06:53] <Awake_Atlast> Worth it to upgrade from UBUNTU 8.04?
[06:54] <milamber> !8.04
[06:55] <milamber> Awake_Atlast: yes, it is eol soon
[06:55] <jasonmchristos> violets, ill try that one
[06:55] <Awake_Atlast> eol?
[06:55] <bullgard4> bjgr: If your system does not show a meaningful content in /proc/acpi/dsdt then your chances to get the contents of DSDT are dim. To make the best out of the situation is to analyze what dmesg says about DSDT. (You already started doing so but your report was incomplete.) Often, manufacturers do not implement the DSDT according to ACPI specification, and Linux/Ubuntu cannot use the "DSDT"...
[06:55] <bullgard4> ...information which the manufacturer provided.
[06:55] <violets> !eol
[06:57] <jasonmchristos> how do i verify the sources of my apt-get are not tampered with everytime I install ubuntu i get the same two updates asked for and i think they are injecting trojan horse with the auto update feature and once i was even bluepilled and they used suckit to clone my system and run me remotley from a VM
[06:57] <Awake_Atlast> gotta trust the depository
[06:58] <elijahsh> hi! I have problem with iptables and ssh in ubuntu 10.10 server. I found script for iptables and use them. But I don't understand them well. http://pastebin.com/f0QNeQ3C . This script allow me to connect to my host from internet via ssh. But when I start download in transmission-daemon I can't connect to ssh. Transmission is not the problem (rates are half of channel wide and so on). I found that in last line where no NEW in state clause. When I add NEW to
[06:58] <violets> jasonmchristos: Check the MD5SUM of your CD. You can verify the MD5SUM files with gnupg. Legitimate copies of Ubuntu automatically check the cryptographic signatures of updates.
[06:58] <milamber> !info debsig-verify | jasonmchristos
[06:58] <jasonmchristos> elijahsh, if you dont understand ip tables try UFW
[06:59] <jubei> guys how can I get a list of my installed packages so that I can install them in a new ubuntu box?
[06:59] <violets> !clone | jubei
[06:59] <jubei> violets, thank you
[06:59] <bjgr> OK... new plan. Does anybody know of an alternative battery indicator for Natty/Unity. Something that is not Gnome Power Manager?
[06:59] <WACOMalt_> hello there. Wondering if anyone can help me set up my Ubuntu VPS as a proxy server?
[06:59] <iceroot> bjgr: #ubuntu+1
[06:59] <violets> bjgr: try #ubuntu+1 for natty discussion and support
[06:59] <bjgr> Doesn't have to do power management, just show battery charge.
[06:59] <jasonmchristos> milamber, thanks i will study up on debsig-verify
[06:59] <mehdi> hey folks after installing ubuntu how can i have my program without updating?
[06:59] <bjgr> violets, thx
[06:59] <iceroot> mehdi: ?
[06:59] <WACOMalt_> mehdi: ?
[06:59] <bullgard4> jasonmchristos: Carefully check in Synaptic the repository addresses. Compare them with a reliable collection of a friend.
[07:00] <violets> mehdi: please rephrase your question
[07:00] <jasonmchristos> violets, i understand that part but the automatic updates makes a convinient hole to inject trojan horses disguised as legitimite security updates
[07:00] <violets> jasonmchristos: do you trust Ubuntu's developers?
[07:01] <mehdi> for example u have two pcs that one of them have the application u need on it
[07:01] <mehdi> anthe other just installed ubuntu
[07:01] <jasonmchristos> violets, i dont know them but its a calculated risk to use this great software, but its random people that i dont want to calculate risk for
[07:01] <mehdi> i wonder is there anyway that it became ike the other one without internet connection?(maybe by chaching apt-get)
[07:02] <violets> jasonmchristos: If you don't, then use another distribution. If you do, then *all* updates are signed by Ubuntu's archive key, which is only available to Ubuntu developers, and apt-get *always* checks and will notify you of signature errors.
[07:02] <jasonmchristos> bullgard4, is it true that the repository addresses are a round robin of mirrors much like irc.freenode.net
[07:02] <WACOMalt_> oh, you want one ubuntu machine to be in the same updated state as the other, but it has no internet?
[07:02] <elijahsh>  jasonmchristos: Thanks, but I want to understand iptables well. I want to use in my work. I can't find in manuals why this happens. Thats why I'm asking.
[07:02] <iceroot> !offline | mehdi
[07:03] <violets> jasonmchristos: So you just need to get a correct copy of the archive key, which is installed by default on Ubuntu, so you just need to check your CD, hence what I said.
[07:03] <jasonmchristos> elijahsh, do man iptables print it and study it
[07:04] <bullgard4> jasonmchristos: No.
[07:04] <mehdi> @<ubottu> even in install packages from synaptic u need internet connection
[07:05] <mehdi> i wanto to do it as <iceroot> says offline
[07:05] <violets> mehdi: You don't need an internet connection to generate a package download script.
[07:06] <jasonmchristos> bullgard4, ok will take a look
[07:06] <mehdi> @<violets> how can i do it?
[07:06] <violets> mehdi: step 1) read what ubottu said
[07:06] <jasonmchristos> violets, this electric sheep is nice
[07:08] <Lewoco> Is there any way to create an access point using network manager?
[07:08] <violets> !ics
[07:09] <bullgard4> By default nc is a softlink to /bin/nc.openbsd. What alternatives to that allows the »Alternatives« system?
[07:10] <amin> hi guys I want to install virtualBox but in software manager is 2 of them actually tree on nonfree one vb-ose one vb-osegt
[07:11] <violets> bullgard4: /bin/nc is set by the 'nc' alternative. For information on modifying the alternatives system, see man update-alternatives
[07:11] <amin> which one should I install
[07:12] <odix> hello
[07:12] <violets> hi
[07:12] <odix> i cant seem to get apache up, well its up, and viewable on my lan, by my machine and another on the lan when pointed to the router ip
[07:12] <odix> however outside looking in will not work
[07:13] <milamber> odix: check router config
[07:13] <violets> perhaps your ISP is blocking port 80
[07:13] <odix> and also i want to enable home directories to be used, like /home/blah/public_html. i did not find this in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[07:13] <aelen_v> The CD/DVD lid on my laptop keeps on opening by itself today. Could it have something to do with ekiga/erlang/couchdb?
[07:13] <odix> hmm
[07:13] <odix> i did forward the ports, the same way i forwarded ssh and ssh works, maybe it is my isp
[07:14] <violets> sudo a2enmod userdir; sudo service apache2 restart
[07:14] <ohsix> aelen_v: that would be quite a trick :D is someone playing with you and running eject on your computer?
[07:14] <odix> its cox communicates
[07:15] <aelen_v> How to know it? :D
[07:16] <Jon--> Missing a dependency in ./configure for installing the latest version of conky (the one in the repos is over a year old and has a really bad bug in battery_bar). Can anyone help me? Output is here http://pastebin.com/YfedJhwP
[07:16] <Jon--> I did a sudo apt-get install lua5.1 and as you can see apt-cache policy says it is installed
[07:18] <Khisanth> aelen_v: does it continue if you disconnect the network cable/turn off wireless? :)
[07:18] <Khisanth> Jon--: for building stuff you usually need the -dev package as well
[07:18] <amin> in software manager If I want to install virtualbox what should I select vb-ose or guest version?
[07:18] <pvl1> my syslog is getting flooded with acpid:, is that bad?
[07:18] <Khisanth> Jon--: also apt-get build-dep <name of conky package>
[07:19] <aelen_v> Khisanth: just turned of wireless. I'm using 3G mobile broadband.
[07:19] <odix> anybody know how to get home directories working with apache?
[07:19] <Jon--> Khisanth, There is no conky package for 1.8.1
[07:19] <Jon--> Khisanth, Which is where this dependency was added.
[07:19] <amin> any one knows any software to config MIkrotik server?
[07:21] <Jon--> Khisanth, It was package liblua5.1-0-dev  thanks anyway.
[07:21] <Jon--> Someone PLEASE update the PPA to include Conky 1.8.1 for other users. There are a couple really bad bugs and it's been out for over a year now.
[07:21] <Khisanth> Jon--: needing -dev still applies :)
[07:22] <playingnatty> ubuntu is perfect. except to the ati driver issues.

[07:29] <devkorcvince> xorxorxorxorxor: downloaded deb from apt-get are cached inside /var/cache/apt/archives
[07:29] <larious> can I have link where I can download the Natty 11.04
[07:29] <xorxorxorxorxor> devkorcvince: thank you, sir
[07:29] <Khisanth> that requires a bunch of config files
[07:29] <Jon--> larious, It's not out yet
[07:29] <xorxorxorxorxor> i'm on mac os x now, i'll try that
[07:29] <wcheng> I can't use gdm,how to do? I'm new
[07:30] <violets> larious: see the /topic of #ubuntu+1
[07:30] <susundberg> or google it!
[07:30] <larious> Jon-- : what is the latest one
[07:31] <susundberg> larious: download 'daily build' for current version
[07:31] <Jon--> larious, 1.8.0 and it has a major bug in a few things, like the battery meter not having an adjustable size so practically being useless.
[07:32] <Jon--> larious, apt-cache policy http://pastebin.com/V28J2UpR
[07:32] <brandoney> Hello, after hibernation with some errors, wifi network is grayed out and disconnected  reboot doesn't resolve
[07:32] <larious> Jon--: latest ubuntu is 10.10 TLS that I know, how come that version u provide
[07:33] <brandoney> i tried nmcli con up id 2wire207 and got connedtion activation failed device not managed by network manager
[07:34] <susundberg> Jon--: 'HOWTO: Making .dep package' -- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2683
[07:34] <brandoney> any ideas what *is* managing it?
[07:35] <Jon--> larious, I don't know if it's in 10.10 or not. It's not in lucid for sure.
[07:35] <violets> brandoney: anything relevant in /etc/network/interfaces?
[07:35] <violets> larious: 10.10 is not an LTS
[07:35] <susundberg> violets: But it did work before hibranate ..
[07:35] <Jon--> no, 1.8.0 across the board http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=conky&searchon=names&suite=maverick&section=all
[07:35] <Jon--> Oh
[07:35] <Jon--> Wait a minute. Sorry.
[07:36] <violets> susundberg: *shrug* You expect NM to make sense?
[07:36] <brandoney> just auto lo  and  iface lo inet loopback
[07:36] <Jon--> Yes. 1.8.0 across the board
[07:36] <ohsix> nm makes great
[07:37] <susundberg> violets: :) well kind of, though i guess you are correct about NetworkManager and black magic :)
[07:38] <ohsix> black magic insofar people don't want to know how it works, and quickly bypass it when it runs even slightly afoul of doing what they need without having to read a little about how it does it
[07:38] <ohsix> its completely comprehensible and even has good logging on by default
[07:38] <brandoney> just to make thinks better I spilled on mouse and now this computer has no mouse
[07:38] <odix> where is the apache conf ?
[07:39] <odix> so i can add mod_stuff to it ?
[07:39] <susundberg> the /etc/ directory would be good place to start look for it
[07:39] <Khisanth> a2enmod stuff :)
[07:39] <tarsh> hey ive set up my partitons to install linux but i dont know how to assign the mount point. wut i do?
[07:39] <tarsh> need to set "/" and "?home"
[07:39] <bullgard4> By default nc is a softlink to /bin/nc.openbsd. What alternatives to that allows the »Alternatives« system?
[07:40] <arand> tarsh: You only "need" "/"
[07:40] <ohsix> odix: read the ubuntu-server handbook; it explains how to enable modules and sites and stuff with the builtin tools
[07:40] <odix> im thinking apache2.conf
[07:40] <odix> just trying to add user public html directores
[07:40] <tarsh> I do? someone told me to set a swap partiton, a 30 gig / one and the rest for /home
[07:40] <Jon--> I want to create a .deb for the community for conky. The issue is that there are so many version in the repository (conky, conky-all, conky-cli, etc.). If I create one with the default configuration, and submit it, will it actually be used and updated? It's a shame that there isn't any packages for it it's been out for over a year and a half now.
[07:41] <tarsh> each on their own partitonn
[07:41] <Khisanth> bullgard4: it's nc.traditional here and no nc.openbsd on this system apparently :)
[07:41] <ohsix> odix: you can of course do everything manually, but there is a lot of work distilled in the tools, which you have to do yourself over and over again if you don't use them :]
[07:41] <brandoney> Odd, radio light is off and no bluetooth, I've been trying to figure out how to permanently turn off BT for long time.
[07:41] <ohsix> Jon--: you can create a ppa and host your builds with changes
[07:41] <arand> tarsh: swap is useful if you don't have much RAM or if you want to use hibernation.
[07:42] <brandoney> but nmcli nm status says wifi-hardware enabled and wifi enabled state disconnected
[07:42] <susundberg> tarsh: that is good partition setup imho. To have separated /home and / makes changing linux version easier ..
[07:42] <arand> tarsh: A separate home is useful, but not necessary
[07:42] <Jon--> ohsix, Anyone competent enough to find and add a random PPA is probably competent enough to install from source, no?
[07:42] <Jon--> ohsix, I might do that, but I'd rather get the packages in the main repository updated already.
[07:43] <tarsh> arrand: ok so all i need to do is create a partiton with / as mount point?
[07:43] <Awake_Atlast> There a list of non trustworthy keys?
[07:43] <tarsh> how do i set / as mount point
[07:43] <ohsix> Jon--: you still don't want to install from source, and you could just build the ppa for yourself; other people using it would be a bonus
[07:43] <tarsh> im using ubuntu 9.10 live cd
[07:43] <brandoney> I try con up with uuid from ncmcli con list and it still says device not managed, then why is it listed!!
[07:44] <Jon--> ohsix, How do I create a PPA?
[07:45] <ohsix> Jon--: first hit on google for what you just asked
[07:45] <pksadiq> Jon-- go to launchpad.net
[07:45] <Jon--> ohsix, Shush. :P
[07:45] <ohsix> Jon--: not a dig, just coincidence
[07:46] <tarsh> arrand: do you know how i would set the mount point?
[07:46] <odix> mount
[07:46] <odix> mount --h
[07:47] <tarsh> just type mount --h?
[07:47] <tarsh> lol
[07:48] <MK`> What are the gvf files in home for?
[07:48] <arand> tarsh: If you choose manual partitionin in the installer, you will get that option.
[07:49] <tarsh> arrand: when i do it only gives me the option to set the name and not the mount point
[07:49] <tarsh> is that the same?
[07:49] <gorlak> which is better for a small file server, nfs, or using sshfs to connect into the system
[07:50] <tarsh> when i hit install it said no root file system defined please correct this in partiton manager
[07:50] <tarsh> what does that mean?
[07:51] <MK`> tarsh are you using the installer on a liveCD?
[07:51] <arand> tarsh: You haven't set a "/" mountpoint.
[07:51] <lahwran> is there an easy way to sort processes by how much disk space use they're causing?
[07:51] <tarsh> MK: no i am using a usb with unetbootin
[07:51] <arand> tarsh: You are likely looking in the wrong place
[07:51] <lahwran> errr, how much disk communication*
[07:52] <Jon--> I'm creating a PPA for conky 1.8.1, should I have my own or is there a popular user PPA I could add it too or?
[07:52] <tarsh> hmm well is 11.04 stable enough for everyday use or should i go with 10.10?
[07:52] <MK`> ah I can't help then.
[07:52] <arand> tarsh: It is still beta
[07:53] <tarsh> ah
[07:53] <lahwran> end of the month right?
[07:53] <MeltingK3yboard> hey there
[07:53] <lahwran> for 11.04
[07:53] <arand> !natty
[07:53] <tarsh> hmm ok well i will try again.  i guess ill just try 11.04 sense i have it loaded
[07:53] <pksadiq> the latest versions may be already compiled and kept in PPAs in launchpad.net search there for the required package
[07:55] <urgodfather> hey i got a ? for someone... wth does things disappear when i click on them in mozilla and chatzilla
[07:55] <urgodfather> like tabs and stuff
[07:56] <fr0stbyt3> any way to make it so strace shows full text for things like sendto/write? instead of trimming the text and adding ...? strace $(pidof php |sed 's/\([0-9]*\)/\-p \1/g')
[07:56] <playingnatty> im using natty for basic terminal commands (web dev). it hasn't given me problems yet. but like others said, it is beta.
[07:56] <Jon--> I created a .deb using checkinstall. How do I package this now to go into a PPA? Sorry for being so n00b. :O
[07:56] <zee313> how I install FSool that is an islamic software in Sabily
[07:56] <zee313> plz help
[07:58] <MK`> Wish I could help you guys :(
[07:58] <opera> how to use ubuntu one
[07:59] <senny> hey there, I am desperatly trying to build a vm for kvm using the ubuntu-vm-builder. The problem is: every image i build hangs when i try to start it up. when I connect using the virt-manager I see: Loading grub stage2... has anyone tried creating vms using the ubuntu-vm-builder latly? most of the tutorials seem to be for hardy...

[08:02] <brandoney> zOkay, so I tried   lshw -c network and got *-network DISABLED  for wireless interface  does that mean the hardware is off?
[08:02] <Jon--> I created a .deb using checkinstall. How do I package this now to go into a PPA? Sorry for being so n00b. :O  I just want to help people trying to install this package...
[08:02] <h3r0_> can someone help me please :(
[08:03] <Jon--> It's compiled from source but I used checkinstall so I have a .deb, it's a later version than what is in the Ubuntu repositories now.
[08:03] <opera> join #ubuntu-cn
[08:03] <h3r0_> how i can configure my sendmail to send to certain webmail.. my sendmail can send to my yahoo and gmail account but not certain webmail
[08:04] <brandoney> h3ro what do you mean by can[t send do you get error message?
[08:05] <h3r0_> brandoney: no my webmail didnt get any email
[08:06] <h3r0_> from my ubuntu sendmail... but my yahoo and gmail account can receive my email from my local ubuntu
[08:06] <ohsix> h3r0_: look at the receiving policies of the webmail; sometimes they require spf or something
[08:06] <h3r0_> actually my question is related to nagios... i want to send email alerts...
[08:06] <brandoney> h3r0 also try sending from yahoo to webmail
[08:06] <Jon--> I want to help out the community a little bit with something I've done. conky is out of date and has several bugs in it across all Ubuntu PPAs. I've compiled from source conky 1.8.1 using checkinstall so I have a .deb, I have created a user PPA on Launchpad. I'm brand new to this now, how do I package this deb into a PPA and generate the .changes file? Sorry for being so n00b. :O  I just want to help people trying to install
[08:06] <Jon-->  this package...
[08:07] <h3r0_> brandoney: oh my webmail can receive it
[08:08] <h3r0_> ohsix: i saw this opmanager network monitor .. it has web interface that i can put and tell to send to this smtp server port 25...
[08:08] <brandoney> dh3ro do you get return bounce message, check spam
[08:10] <odix> ok one more question
[08:10] <h3r0_> brandoney: im using horde as interface... but i can't find any spam box
[08:10] <odix> ;p
[08:10] <brandoney> you are using port25 of your webmail server as the outgoing server for opmanager to send messages?
[08:10] <odix> how do i bind apache to another port besides 80
[08:11] <h3r0_> ahaa yes.... actually i saw my senior put it like that...
[08:11] <ohsix> read the manual, <Listen accepts a port argument
[08:11] <brandoney> try poping mail first or adding password for smtp
[08:12] <h3r0_> oh okay thank you very much i will do it :)
[08:12] <Khisanth> odix: add more Listen to /etc/apache/ports.conf
[08:12] <h3r0_> that apache count too?
[08:12] <h3r0_> im using apache2...
[08:13] <odix> ty
[08:13] <ohsix> Khisanth: thanks, i know thats in the handbook but i already told him to look D: didn't want to start quoting it
[08:14] <geegeegee> how do i stop a group using a cirtain command
[08:14] <Jon--> I want to help out the community a little bit with something I've done. conky is out of date and has several bugs in it across all Ubuntu PPAs. I've compiled from source conky 1.8.1 using checkinstall so I have a .deb, I have created a user PPA on Launchpad. I'm brand new to this now, how do I package this deb into a PPA and generate the .changes file? Sorry for being so n00b. :O  I just want to help people trying to install
[08:14] <Jon-->  this package...
[08:14] <Khisanth> sometimes that works too
[08:15] <nomad99> !patience > Jon--
[08:15] <odix> hmm'
[08:15] <geegeegee> how do i stop a group using a cirtain command
[08:15] <odix> there should be a way to connect to a lan ip behind a router in a more effecient way
[08:16] <odix> like ftp themac@theip or ftp thehostname@theip
[08:16] <pyus> make a new cat5 cable?
[08:16] <pyus> o
[08:16] <odix> all using the same port
[08:17] <brandoney> Okay so now I do  dmesg | grep iwl3945 and get a bunch of  Radio disabled by HW RF Kill switch  where do I get one of those?
[08:17] <Khisanth> odix: you mean instead of setting up the forwarding?
[08:17] <odix> yes
[08:18] <geegeegee> How do i stop a group of users using a specific command?
[08:19] <Khisanth> I don't think there is anything at the ip layer that can do that in IPv4, maybe in IPv6
[08:19] <Khisanth> seems doubtful
[08:19] <odix> ya..
[08:19] <odix> they should make it like that
[08:20] <odix> be good for servers to, easier maybe
[08:20] <odix> when server as is to full reroute to b@ip
[08:20] <Khisanth> especially since there are things that specifically try to prevent outsiders from figuring out the internal addresses :)
[08:21] <Medics> Hello World!
[08:21] <Khisanth> odix: exposing the internal ip would prevent that kind of thing(load balancing)
[08:21] <Jernej_Work> on ubuntu server.. how do i run mysql under my local user?
[08:21] <odix> i got you
[08:22] <jjp_> Jernej: mean mysql server or mysql client ?
[08:22] <odix> just saying on top of ips we could have aname@theip
[08:22] <odix> it would make the internet that much bigger
[08:22] <roland> how to get usbfs working?
[08:22] <geegeegee> How do i stop a group of users using a specific command?
[08:22] <ikonia> geegeegee: change the permissions on the command file ?
[08:22] <odix> well i guess we do with routers, but it would be easier if you could connect a name to that ip behind the router and use it throughb the internet
[08:23] <odix> without portfowarding
[08:23] <odix> makes way more sense
[08:23] <ikonia> odix: what are you talking about ?
[08:23] <brandoney> you could build a tunnel through the router and the set a sub interface to that tunneled lan
[08:24] <Khisanth> that would also require giving out two different addresses for everything
[08:24] <Khisanth> but this is also very much off topic
[08:24] <odix> yep
[08:24] <brandoney> http initiated ipsec tunnel?";
[08:25] <odix> go beyond http tho
[08:25] <odix> anyway
[08:25] <brandoney> the website initiates tunnel for youl
[08:26] <Khisanth> odix: the biggest problem for this is that over 0 advantages :)
[08:27] <odix> ?
[08:27] <odix> the biggest advantage i can see is portforwarding
[08:27] <ikonia> why is this anything to do with ubuntu ?
[08:29] <playingnatty> ubuntu has a server edition (use centos myself though)
[08:30] <opera> my ctrl bar is locked. how can i do
[08:30] <brandoney> so how do I toggle thye HW RF Kill switch so my radio won't be disabled.
[08:31] <opera> how can i restart my pc  using terminator
[08:32] <opera> please some tell me
[08:33] <odix> terminator?
[08:33] <brandoney> holy crap, my wifi switch is broken, just slides back and forth not switching anything. NO WONDER  all that troubleshooting for nothing.
[08:34] <brandoney> thanks for listening guys, really.
[08:34] <opera> yes . i need know the obey
[08:36] <opera> what is reboot Instruction
[08:37] <Big_bear> reboot
[08:37] <buteo> Hi, does anybody know why 10.04 doesn't respond to IGMP?
[08:38] <lolmatic> hi
[08:38] <alesque> hi
[08:38] <hateball> buteo: by default it shouldnt, you havent set ufw to block it?
[08:39] <alesque> I see only people coming and going out ...
[08:39] <lolmatic> when i installed quake3-data and it installed the quake 3 files it stated that it would download the point release but notthing happened. what do i have to do next?
[08:40] <alesque> Bye Ubuntu-friends
[08:41] <buteo> is ufw configured to on by default?
[08:42]  * fgump is away: I'm busy
[08:44] <geegeegee> what chmod stops other people looking in my home directory?
[08:44] <ikonia> geegeegee: 700 will lock it to just you
[08:45] <ohsix> it should already be that way
[08:45] <ohsix> or rather, important things have permissions on them so they can't be viewed
[08:45] <ohsix> and the folder does, so the files under it by default get permissions that are strict
[08:47] <ohsix> s/folder/directory/ D:
[08:48] <buteo> IGMP problem: Ubuntu 10.04 doesn't reply to IGMP queries from Cisco, but Debian Lenny does... Does anybody know which setting may affect this?
[08:48] <odix> hmm
[08:49] <odix> found  zsh_command_not_found in my /etc dir
[08:49] <Guest88076> всем привет ))))
[08:49] <odix> thsts normal?
[08:49] <ohsix> buteo: you'd be looking for a kernel setting; so start there, then you'd be looking for how ubuntu could set it, theres sysctl.conf, and there are other pref files in /etc, start with finding the setting though
[08:50] <geegeegee> how would i stop a user executing any files in their home directory
[08:50] <odix> geegee chmod
[08:50] <odix> or chown
[08:50] <llutz> geegeegee: mount /home noexec
[08:50] <geegeegee> oh lol. thanks llutz
[08:51] <ikonia> geegeegee: just remove the execute bit
[08:51] <hungry> i just installed ubuntu next to windows 7. now when i boot up and pick to boot ubuntu it tells me it failed to load windows
[08:51] <odix> bunch of ways -)
[08:52] <geegeegee> hmm :| /home is on the same partition as / what shall do instead, or how owuld i put it in fstab
[08:52] <buteo> ohsix: it's strange because the host is sending the multicast source.
[08:53] <ohsix> buteo: it's only as strange as the many configuration options there are :D
[08:53] <buteo> ohsix: but finding them...
[08:53] <odix> geegee change the files to another user
[08:54] <odix> like root
[08:54] <lolmatic> hi, i am trying to install steam via playonlinux. now it is downloading another version of wine. is this normal?
[08:54] <odix> then change them back when you want
[08:54] <sveinse> Hi. I'm trying to make a partition table in a loop device. However, fdisk, return an error upon exit because it's trying to re-read the partition table of the loop image (which doesn't make sense). Anyone knows if this re-read can be disabled?
[08:54] <llutz> geegeegee: sudo mount --bind /home/user /home/user  && sudo mount -o remount,noexec /home/user
[08:54] <odix> or that
[08:54] <ohsix> buteo: i generally start in Documentation/ from a kernel tree, since that's where they are ;D
[08:55] <buteo> ohsix: thanks.
[08:55] <rug> Would anybody mind testing something for me?  Please try to connect via ftp to:  mj-temp-account.dyndns.org   And tell me if you get a password prompt, or if the router is blocking it.
[08:56] <Pipolipo> hi ! is it possible to run an interactive shell script (with read echo etc...) before gdm shows on?
[08:58] <shleda> When I play MP3s in Rhythombox I dont see any error and there is no voice and I don't see any sound card in gnome-volume-control.
[08:59] <Danielcg25> 0.0
[08:59] <seena> hi all
[09:00] <Danielcg25> shleda: Do you have a sound card, or is it on the MB?
[09:01] <ohsix> shleda: something else might have the sound card open, can you tell me if the output of fuser -v /dev/snd/* is empty? (run it in a terminal)
[09:01] <geegeegee> does anything need to be executed in /tmp or /var ?
[09:01] <shleda> mine is a laptop and has sound card, lspci | grep audio  gives 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
[09:02] <shleda> ohsix: Specified filename /dev/snd/* does not exist.
[09:02] <llutz> geegeegee: /tmp should be mounted noexec/nosuid/nodev savely, /var... there are still some apps putting stuff in /var/lib to run
[09:02] <ohsix> shleda: did you install oss4?
[09:02] <iceroot> rug: host down
[09:03] <geegeegee> ahh ok, thanks llutz :)
[09:03] <ruan> oss4 killed my soundcard before
[09:03] <rug> iceroot: thanks
[09:03] <amin> how could I add usb support to virtualbox
[09:03] <llutz> amin: get usb-extenstion from oracle
[09:03] <shleda> ohsix: nopes, let me just do it
[09:03] <iceroot> amin: #vbox  use the nonfree-version
[09:04] <geegeegee> what about /var/tmp, would that be mounted the same as /tmp?
[09:04] <ohsix> shleda: no, don't do it
[09:04] <amin> llutz: how can I do that?
[09:04] <ohsix> shleda: in fact it would be something i would have told you to undo had you done it
[09:04] <shleda> ohsix: no package oss4 found
[09:04] <llutz> amin: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
[09:04] <shleda> ohsix: oh ok :D I was trying to be smart ass
[09:05] <llutz> geegeegee: should be ok
[09:05] <ohsix> shleda: did you blacklist any modules? or build your own kernel, or do anything related to the kernel or its modules

[09:12] <DarsVaeda> hi, I tried to change my user login password, but after entering the passwords two times and hitting "ok" it just went grey and is working... after a while a window popped up saying "The system configuration has potentially changed. Update content? This will lose any modification in course." What do I loose? Is this related to the password change anyway?
[09:12] <Diverdude> ruan, its ridicolous that drag'n'drop is not working
[09:13] <ruan> maybe it'll be fixed in natty
[09:13] <Jernej_Work> i don't get this
[09:13] <Jernej_Work> i have a executable in current directory
[09:13] <Jernej_Work> but i cant' run it
[09:13] <Jernej_Work> it's like..
[09:14] <Jernej_Work> "No such file or directory"
[09:14] <Jernej_Work> i'm logged in as root
[09:14] <Jernej_Work> and the file has executable attribs
[09:14] <Jernej_Work> it won't run :>
[09:15] <llutz> !enter | Jernej_Work how do you call it?
[09:15] <hungry> anyone know why it tells me windows failed to load when i try to load ubuntu on a dual boot?
[09:15] <Jernej_Work> ./samp03svr
[09:15] <Jernej_Work> with that.
[09:16] <ejv> hungry: perhaps you rplaced your windows bootloader with ubuntu's ?
[09:16] <ejv> s/rplaced/replaced/
[09:16] <hungry> how would i fix it?
[09:16] <hungry> ejv
[09:17] <hungry> use windows disc and bootrec /fixmbr?
[09:17] <hungry> will i still be able to dual boot?
[09:17] <jiltdil> how to make cryptography use via terminal
[09:18] <llutz> jiltdil: "gpg --help" or read "man gpg"
[09:19] <jiltdil> llutz:ok thanx
[09:19] <ejv> hungry: that would remove the ubuntu bootloader, so no.
[09:19] <hungry> what should i do?
[09:20] <ejv> why not add an entry in your ubuntu bootloader for windows?
[09:20] <Danielcg25> hungry: Eat something
[09:20] <Danielcg25> =P sorry for OT
[09:20] <ejv> if you installed ubuntu 'second' after an existing windows installation, ubuntu should have built an entry *for* you in grub land.
[09:21] <hungry> yes i installed it second
[09:21] <ravenreturns> Hello all, anybody going developer week tonight?
[09:21] <ejv> so what do you see when you reach the ubuntu bootloader menu?
[09:22] <ravenreturns> ah q and a my mistake, starts next week
[09:22] <playingnatty> hungry, you can attemp a windows boot repair using a windows install disk. you would choose repair instead of install. (its an option)
[09:22] <hungry> and i will still be able to dual boot?
[09:23] <ejv> playingnatty: don't just jump in helping people if you don't know his issue, he wants to *dual* boot. not wipe out ubuntu's loader.
[09:23] <playingnatty> ive been reading his comments from his other account
[09:23] <playingnatty> but i will stay in #wordpress helping people
[09:23] <tlk> Hello, was 9.10 LTS terminated per april 1st?
[09:24] <genii-around> !eol
[09:24] <ejv> again hungry, what do you see when you reach the menu upon start up...
[09:24] <genii-around> 9.10 was not ever an LTS release
[09:24] <ejv> is there just one entry for ubuntu? several? is there in fact one for windows listed?
[09:24] <hungry> when i start its black with white text and asks me if i want to boot windows 7 or ubuntu
[09:25] <hungry> one for windows one for ubuntu
[09:25] <hungry> usually i would pick windows and it would boot
[09:25] <hungry> or if i pick ubuntu it then takes me to a list of ubuntu and then boots
[09:25] <tlk> genii-around: oops, ok thanks
[09:25] <ejv> now we're getting somewhere... :)
[09:25] <hungry> windows boots fine.  but when i pick ubuntu it now goes to white text saying windows failed to boot
[09:25] <hungry> even though i picked ubuntu
[09:26] <tlk> genii-around: the Releases page says End of life date: April 2011, do you know if that means april 1st or 30th?
[09:26] <ejv> hungry: that description you gave right there, *that's* how thorough you should be always, when asking for support here ;)
[09:26] <hungry> sorry :-/
[09:27] <ejv> np, so it did in fact work at some point, any major changes that you made?
[09:28] <genii-around> tlk: Not sure. But if apt-get update for instance fails, change url in sources.list file to have old-releases.ubuntu.com instead of archive.ubuntu.com
[09:28] <hungry> yeah it was ubuntu 10.10 with windows 7.  at one point i ran bootrec /fixmbr and it made the bootloader look different.  i assume its now windows bootloader and no longer grub?
[09:28] <hungry> but then
[09:29] <hungry> i deleted all partitons except windows just now
[09:29] <tlk> genii-around: alright, thanks
[09:29] <hungry> then installed ubuntu 11.04 via usb unetbootin
[09:29] <hungry> and now this is where i am
[09:33] <shleda> ohsix: I fixed it using sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel, it seems I messed up kernel headers
[09:33] <shleda> quit

[09:51] <opticx> like that
[09:51] <ikonia> opticx: ok, bit of an old guide, but not to worry
[09:51] <opticx> perhaps there is a guide that works?
[09:51] <ikonia> opticx: please run the following commmands
[09:51] <opticx> ok
[09:51] <ikonia> "sudo mysql stop"
[09:52] <opticx> access denied

[09:55] <opticx> ok
[09:55] <opticx> next is phpmyadmin
[09:55] <berkes> is there a preferred desktop indexer/searcher for ubuntu? I see several options but had bad experiences with all, on older ubuntu's.
[09:56] <ikonia> opticx: no it's not
[09:56] <opticx> i thought phpmyadmin wasnt working because of mysql
[09:56] <ikonia> opticx: you have a problem with mysql
[09:56] <opticx> ok
[09:56] <ikonia> opticx: can I suggest you reboot your box so we get a clean state of where we are
[09:56] <ikonia> opticx: is that possible ?
[09:56] <opticx> sure
[09:57] <opticx> should i just remove it all and start fresh instead of fixing something that was done wrong?
[09:57] <playingnatty> berkes, do you mean an app like gnome-do?
[09:57] <ikonia> opticx: I don't know, hence why I'm asking you to reboot, then we can see what the real status of your install is
[09:58] <berkes> playingnatty, no. More like Tracker.
[09:58] <opticx> ok
[09:58] <opticx> brb
[09:58] <opticx> thanks for your help
[10:01] <opticx> im restarted
[10:01] <foofoobar_> Hi
[10:01] <foofoobar_> what is the best way to do a periodical backup of my database?
[10:01] <ikonia> opticx: ok, please patebin the output of "ps -ef | grep mysql" again
[10:02] <ikonia> foofoobar_: shell script
[10:02] <sfire||mouse> foofoobar_: mysql?
[10:02] <foofoobar_> sfire||mouse, yes
[10:03] <opticx> http://pastebin.com/XNL11ZV7
[10:03] <sfire||mouse> foofoobar_: I use http://paste.ubuntu.com/591154/ on mysql
[10:03] <rasyid> hi..
[10:03] <sfire||mouse> which ever cron use runs it, have a .my.cnf define the password
[10:03] <sfire||mouse> I gets run as root here
[10:03] <foofoobar_> sfire||mouse, looks nice!
[10:04] <foofoobar_> You do not have a password on your root mysql??
[10:04] <ikonia> opticx: ok, so we know the system started mysql fine
[10:04] <ikonia> opticx: can you please show me the output of "id" from your current user
[10:05] <foofoobar_> sfire||mouse, and the best way is to run this via cron, right?
[10:05] <hungry> ok so i think i need to restore or reinstall grub
[10:05] <hungry> how to do? can i do it from windows?
[10:05] <sfire||mouse> foofoobar_: I put something in /etc/cron.d/ for centos
[10:06] <opticx> http://pastebin.com/q6H9vdWf
[10:06] <foofoobar_> sfire||mouse, okay. But you do not have a password on your root mysql, right? This is not secure, am I right?
[10:06] <opticx> what is that information?
[10:06] <opticx> that im pasting public lol
[10:06] <opticx> without knowing what it is
[10:06] <ikonia> opticx: nothing secret
[10:06] <opticx> ok
[10:07] <sfire||mouse> foofoobar_: if you have cron run this script as root, and it ~root/.my.cnf you define the root password for mysql, this script will use it
[10:07] <opticx> im learning to love linux but im a noob
[10:07] <opticx> i installed it 2 days ago
[10:08] <opticx> but have worked with it on my web server a bit
[10:08] <ikonia> opticx: any chance you can give me the information I'm asking for
[10:08] <opticx> i pased it
[10:08] <ikonia> opticx: ah, I see it
[10:08] <opticx> http://pastebin.com/q6H9vdWf
[10:08] <ikonia> great, so your user account is set "ok"
[10:08] <foofoobar_> sfire||mouse, what do I have to put in .my.cnf?
[10:09] <ikonia> opticx: so now from the command line do "sudo mysql stop" what does it say exactly
[10:09] <opticx> asks for a password
[10:09] <sfire||mouse> foofoobar_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/591156/
[10:09] <ikonia> put in your users password
[10:09] <opticx> then denies acess
[10:09] <opticx> ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[10:09] <ikonia> are you putting in your users password as in the password your login to the machine as
[10:10] <opticx> yes
[10:10] <ikonia> opticx: ok, how did you set the root password on your mysql database ?
[10:10] <opticx> i set it before when I installed mysql
[10:10] <ikonia> the process that's running does not look like it's been started correctly
[10:10] <ikonia> opticx: how can you set the root password for your mysql database before you install it
[10:11] <rasyid> sorry i'm new member
[10:11] <opticx> before, when i installed it
[10:11] <opticx> since this is the 4th time
[10:11] <foofoobar_> sfire||mouse, thank you very much! :) Now the only thing I have to do is to transfer it to my backup ftp :)
[10:11] <opticx> some of the settings are still there
[10:11] <ikonia> opticx: ok, this sounds a total mes
[10:11] <ikonia> mess
[10:11] <ikonia> opticx: remove the data files,and purge mysql, and lets re-apply them
[10:11] <opticx> this is why i asked if i should just reinstall
[10:11] <sfire||mouse> foofoobar_: add that to the shell script :)
[10:12] <foofoobar_> Yes, I try :)
[10:12] <ikonia> opticx: well, no
[10:12] <ikonia> opticx: as you've re-installed 4 times and not done it cleanly
[10:12] <foofoobar_> What the best way to put to a ftp via shell? is there a command line tool for this?
[10:12] <opticx> because i dont know how
[10:12] <opticx> im new to this
[10:12] <ikonia> opticx: I appreciate that
[10:12] <opticx> i used sudo apt-get remove
[10:12] <ikonia> opticx: ok, lets step back
[10:12] <kipling_> Hi fellows, i have a problem. Usually i use screen with irssi, it works well, but when i added it to cron: "@reboot sleep 18;screen -dmS irssi irssi". It didn't work at all. It's kind of weird. Any suggestion? Thanks.
[10:12] <ikonia> opticx: where is your data files kept ?
[10:13] <opticx> etc
[10:13] <opticx> so i just need to delete them?
[10:13] <ikonia> opticx: they are not

[10:13] <opticx> and install it correctly
[10:14] <ikonia> opticx: get the info I asked for
[10:14] <opticx> i dont know what that file is
[10:14] <ikonia> the file is called my.cnf
[10:15] <sfire||mouse> foofoobar_: but I don't have a script handy to show you how to upload
[10:15] <sfire||mouse> foofoobar_: if you have ssh access too, you could just scp the file
[10:15] <opticx> what file is this?
[10:16] <foofoobar_> sfire||mouse, only ftp access :/
[10:16] <opticx> you want me to paste all of its contents?
[10:16] <sfire||mouse> foofoobar_: was worth a shot
[10:16] <foofoobar_> sfire||mouse, :D

[10:23] <jennifer> Hi, i was wondering if someoen here could tell me if I have chnaged a setting properly in ubuntu with the grub loader. on my netbook it has a seperate partition which has the windows 7 recovery just incase i need to reinstall for any reason. but grub detected the partition as another OS so its like dual booting grub displays at each startup and asks me to choose an OS to boot or it waits 10 secs and then boots teh default
[10:24] <ikonia> opticx: "sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server"
[10:24] <jennifer> i went  into terminal and cd /boot/grub and then used sudo gedit grub.cfg and changed set timeout=10 to set timeout=0 is this the correct way to make it load the default automatic and skip grub ?
[10:25] <erUSUL> jennifer: no; that fie is overwritten by system scripts. the correct way is editing /etc/default/grub
[10:25] <seena> fairuz: the error is

[10:35] <ikonia> opticx: sorry, had to step away for a minute
[10:35] <opticx> i guess im on my own
[10:35] <opticx> oh
[10:35] <opticx> hey np
[10:35] <ikonia> opticx: give me 2 minutes I'll be back with you
[10:35] <opticx> ok
[10:35] <tonnez> how can i allow sudo with a jailed user. using jailkit to jail users
[10:36] <morgan> badd - im not sure what distros you are trying.. are you mistaking 32 and 64 bit installs or something?
[10:36] <opticx> im listening to merlin mann talk about productivity, so i have an illusion of getting something done
[10:36] <opticx> heh
[10:36] <BADD> its a 32 bit system
[10:36] <morgan> and the installer?
[10:37] <BADD> its Dell gx260 with a P4 2.8 ghz, 1.5gb ram an 80 hdd
[10:37] <morgan> badd - is the .iso or cd you are using an x86 version?
[10:37] <BADD> i have tryed ubuntu 7.04, 8.04, 8.10 and 10.10
[10:37] <BADD> i386
[10:37] <jennifer> Hi, the grub loader change worked guys thanks :)
[10:38] <sfire||mouse> BADD: have you tried the ubuntu alternative iso's?
[10:38] <BADD> i am not sure i have tryed so many
[10:39] <BADD> i have even tryed mint 10
[10:39] <DJones> BADD: Just something to check, does the gx260 have a standard vga output for connecting the monitor, or does it have a dvi adapter, I've got an SX270 which has a dvi output and have to use an adapter to connect a monitor and ubuntu won't install on that
[10:39] <BADD> an it does the same thing
[10:39] <BADD> it has a nvidia grforce 9400gt
[10:39] <BADD> and an onboard
[10:40] <jennifer> I have just one more question if its ok though, im using Ubuntu 10.4 Netbook edition. and the UI for the desktop seems quite limited for example i cant right click the top toolbar and add applets such as "Force quit" which i think comes in handy now and then is there a shortcut command on keyboard for force quit or is there a away i can make ubuntu netbook let me add applets to the top bar ?
[10:40] <BADD> the onboard is an intel
[10:40] <PleuR> BADD, have you tried the textbased (non-graphical) installation?

[10:41] <ikonia> opticx: apologies back now
[10:41] <AxonetBE> how can I edit the $PATH var for cronjobs?

[10:41] <Guest75443> Is there any one on the Internet?
[10:41] <ikonia> opticx: have you purged and removed mysql-server as instructed
[10:41] <AxonetBE> because when I'm running a command through cronjobs he says that the he can't find the command I want

[10:55] <opticx> ok
[10:55] <ikonia> opticx: root terminal ?
[10:55] <ikonia> opticx: what are you talking about, you shouldn't be root
[10:55] <opticx> im not
[10:56] <ikonia> opticx: then what is the root terminal
[10:56] <nona_me> rasyd, check the ownership and permissions on your x config files.
[10:56] <opticx> there was one in the last installation I did
[10:56] <opticx> I reinstalled ubuntu
[10:56] <opticx> its not in the menu anymore
[10:56] <ikonia> opticx: what are you talkiong about
[10:56] <opticx> it just had my authenticate
[10:56] <ikonia> opticx: as your current user, issue the command I gave you
[10:56] <PleuR> opticx, just do a "gnome-terminal -e sudo" ?
[10:56] <opticx> so i didnt have to sudo
[10:56] <ikonia> opticx: use sudo
[10:57] <ikonia> opticx: half the problems will be you trying to get around things like sudo, use the correct tools,
[10:57] <student_421> #Xcode
[10:57] <rasyid> please can you give me step by step ?
[10:58] <opticx> i was talking about a menu item that said root terminal
[10:58] <opticx> it was just there
[10:58] <ikonia> opticx: that menu item should not exist
[10:58] <ikonia> opticx: there is no ubuntu install that creates a root terminal menu item
[10:58] <opticx> i dont know what to tell you
[10:58] <opticx> ok
[10:58] <opticx> im not crazy or stupid
[10:59] <opticx> just saying what was there
[10:59] <ikonia> opticx: then you are possibly not using an offiical ubuntu release
[10:59] <opticx> got that installed
[10:59] <opticx> its studio
[10:59] <ikonia> studio ?
[10:59] <Pipolipo> Hi ! Is it possible to launch an interactive shell script (read, echo) before kdm shows on?
[11:00] <opticx> ok
[11:00] <opticx> yes
[11:00] <opticx> studio
[11:00] <opticx> ubuntu studio
[11:00] <FloodBot1> opticx: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:00] <ikonia> opticx: why are you using an audio studio distro for web development ?
[11:00] <ikonia> actually, I don't care
[11:00] <ikonia> lets just fix this
[11:00] <opticx> because im also a producer?
[11:01] <opticx> yea i dont think it matters
[11:01] <ikonia> opticx: "sudo apt-get install mysql-server"
[11:01] <opticx> its just addons
[11:01] <opticx> i did
[11:01] <opticx> installed
[11:01] <ikonia> opticx: clearly not just addons if there is an item called "root shell"
[11:01] <Pipolipo> :(
[11:01] <ikonia> opticx: ok, "sudo service mysql start"
[11:02] <opticx> says already running

[11:06] <ikonia> Nero-: you may want to run it by the guys in #ubuntu-doc make sure it hits the standards for layout etc
[11:06] <bullgard4> Khisanth: Interesting. Here is the default /bin/nc.openbsd. --  ''thank you for commenting.
[11:06] <Pipolipo> ikonia: even with X? I can't tell him to execute a script ?
[11:06] <opticx> on the second thought thats way above my head im useless
[11:07] <ikonia> Pipolipo: no, as you'd have to tell X not to launch, then use the script to launch X,
[11:07] <Pipolipo> hm
[11:07] <Nero-> hey
[11:07] <Nero-> what should the file permissions be on that update_dns.py
[11:07] <opticx> so I should have a clean mysql install now right? now i need to set a user?
[11:07] <userdel> how do i play swf files from command line
[11:08] <ikonia> opticx: did you do the command I told you to do
[11:08] <opticx> yup
[11:08] <ikonia> opticx: what happened
[11:08] <opticx> got some copyright info
[11:08] <Pipolipo> ikonia: so you think I can write a script who kills X, starts the interaction then restarts X?
[11:08] <opticx> oracle
[11:08] <BADD> may i ask whats the diffance between the normail 10.10 download vs. the alternate 10.10 download?
[11:08] <Khisanth> bullgard4: those seem to be the only choices anyway according to apt-cache search
[11:08] <ikonia> opticx: are you at a mysql command prompt ?
[11:08] <ikonia> opticx: you are not using oracle
[11:08] <ikonia> Pipolipo: no
[11:08] <ikonia> opticx: what ?
[11:08] <FloodBot1> ikonia: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:08] <opticx> lol
[11:08] <ikonia> opticx: are you at the mysql command prompt
[11:08] <opticx> yes
[11:08] <ikonia> opticx: so if you do "show databases
[11:09] <ikonia> opticx: so if you do "show databases;"
[11:09] <ikonia> what happens
[11:09] <opticx> in quotes?
[11:09] <ikonia> remove the quotes leave the ;
[11:09] <ikonia> opticx: I thought you said you knew mysql ?
[11:09] <opticx> ok
[11:09] <Pipolipo> lol
[11:09] <opticx> i know a little
[11:10] <ikonia> opticx: showing a database is basic
[11:10] <opticx> ive never used it like this
[11:10] <ikonia> opticx: did it work
[11:10] <opticx> yea
[11:10] <ikonia> opticx: ok, so you now have a working mysql database based on the ubuntu packages
[11:10] <opticx> one row in information_schema
[11:10] <opticx> nice
[11:11] <opticx> how can i get phpmyadmin running ?
[11:11] <opticx> i need to import databases from current sites
[11:11] <ikonia> opticx: that's a different issue,
[11:12] <ikonia> opticx: I advise you to join #mysql and learn the basics of managing a basic database
[11:12] <Kartagis> how do I change users' home directory for vsftpd?
[11:12] <opticx> all im interested in right now is using phpmyadmin so i can continue working
[11:12] <ikonia> Kartagis: are you using virtual users or real system users in
[11:12] <ikonia> opticx: I'm not interested in doing that, sorry
[11:12] <Kartagis> ikonia: real
[11:13] <ikonia> Kartagis: then you need to change the users home directory in real life
[11:13] <angramanyu> Hello. I am on Ubuntu Lucid Lynx and I was wondering how exactly do I install gcc-4.5, g++-4.5? I'm needing it to compile BSNES.
[11:13] <ikonia> angramanyu: the short answer is install the package "build-essential"
[11:13] <opticx> i appreciate your help
[11:14] <spirytusick> angramanyu: in the terminal windows type sudo apt-get install build-essential
[11:14] <opticx> i just have enough things to learn that i need to limit what i spend time on if i ever want to finish anything for a client
[11:14] <opticx> im sure ill get there
[11:14] <bullgard4> Khisanth: '~$ aptitude search netcat' produces another 2 packages: A transitional package and an IPv6 package.
[11:14] <angramanyu> "build-essential is already the newest version."
[11:15] <ikonia> angramanyu: then you already have g++ installed
[11:15] <Khisanth> bullgard4: well I guess some where dropped between versoins
[11:15] <Khisanth> bullgard4: I have netcat-openbsd and netcat-traditional in addition to those
[11:16] <angramanyu> dunno@desktop:/media/New Volume/Downloads/bsnes_v077-source/bsnes$ make g++-4.5 -std=gnu++0x -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -I. -DPROFILE_ACCURACY -c ui/main.cpp -o obj/ui-main.o make: g++-4.5: Command not found make: *** [obj/ui-main.o] Error 127
[11:16] <angramanyu> is what it returns after "make"
[11:17] <bullgard4> Khisanth: I don't think that it is a matter of Ubuntu release number. My Maverick and my Natty do produce identical results.
[11:17] <Kartagis> ikonia: thanks.
[11:17] <Khisanth> bullgard4: 8.04 here :)
[11:18] <gribouille> hi
[11:18] <bullgard4> Khisanth: Ah! (My apologies.)
[11:18] <gribouille> is there a program that can convert id3v2.4 tags to id3v2.3 tags ?
[11:19] <Khisanth> angramanyu: I would say that is a mistake on the author's part unless bsnes really needs something that is only available in gcc 4.5
[11:20] <rooks> gribouille, i think i saw one that had them all covered
[11:20] <gribouille> rooks, don't you remember its name ?
[11:20] <rooks> gribouille, i think it was id3tag, not sure, you gotta check it first in synaptic
[11:21] <gribouille> rooks, id3tag doesn't seem to support id3v2.4 tags
[11:21] <r4y> hello
[11:22] <rooks> gribouille, oh, sorry about it then
[11:22] <r4y> My hard drive has some bad sectors and I have backed up practically everything
[11:23] <Trashi> hi. does the latest ubuntu version support gnome3?
[11:23] <Kartagis> hmm, I'm getting a FAIL LOGIN in vsftpd.log but I am sure I typed the right password. how can I debug?
[11:24] <r4y> how ever I know I transferred a folder named .mozilla which had the last book marks I had, I can't find it anywhere. How do I find that folder?
[11:24] <rooks> Trashi,  11.04beta has that new gnome3, but it has some shortcomings, download live beta first and see for yourself
[11:24] <Trashi> rooks: ok thanks .. i'll look for
[11:25] <Pipolipo> ikonia: launch a script on rcS event with upstart won't happen before X launching?
[11:26] <ikonia> Pipolipo: look at the run levels now with upstart, and work out the dependencies
[11:26] <arand> r4y: find . *mozilla* will search for that name under the current location...
[11:26] <ikonia> Pipolipo: I have no idea why you'd want to do this
[11:26] <KGB> Uh, whenever I try to log on, i get an error stating "The GNOME power manager was not installed correctly", and I'm returned to the login screen
[11:27] <r4y> I am on a live cd
[11:27] <arand> r4y: Are you using the file manager to move these files by the way? Hve you set it to show hidden files?
[11:27] <Pipolipo> ikonia: I need to ask user informations about the configuration he wants before launching X, KDM ... !!
[11:27] <r4y> yep
[11:27] <KGB> I can boot into the recovery mode, but I'm stuck on what to do from there
[11:28] <opticx> ikonia I have phpmyadmin running now, thank you for all your valuable time and knowledge
[11:28] <Pipolipo> ikonia: maybe I can edit file into /etc/init/rc-sysinit with pre-start
[11:28] <opticx> do you have a blog by chance?
[11:29] <ikonia> opticx: I have two
[11:30] <opticx> i may have some links to them sometime if you can link them here
[11:30] <ikonia> opticx: ahh, don't worry, just pleased your working
[11:30] <coz_>  hey all
[11:30] <opticx> ok thanks again
[11:30] <Pipolipo> ikonia: found /etc/init/kdm.conf !
[11:31] <ikonia> Pipolipo: so ?
[11:31] <Pipolipo> ikonia: I can edit it with pre-start and launch my interactive script I think
[11:31] <ikonia> Pipolipo: doubtful as kdm will need to be running for that to get parsed
[11:32] <S74rk7> ok does anyone know how I can find my home directory encryption key?  or is it easy to remount a home directory in a new install of ubuntu?
[11:32] <Pipolipo> ikonia: it is launched by this kdm.conf at the bottom you have "exec kdm"
[11:32] <ikonia> yup, try it, I doubt very much it will work
[11:32] <Pipolipo> Ok i try and i tell you
[11:32] <Pipolipo> :)
[11:37] <perlmonkey> I have just installed a SATA drive into my system using an external USB adaptor.. where would this drive show up in the /dev? or how would I mount it?
[11:37] <made2shred> i was updating to 11.04 and the distro updater crashed... will this effect anything?
[11:37] <erUSUL> perlmonkey: should show up as any other disk /dev/sdxx
[11:38] <erUSUL> perlmonkey: do « tailf /var/log/messages » and plug the disk.

[11:42] <Leopsx> oi
[11:44] <ikonia> #/whois lunitik
[11:44] <adammw111> Hi, everytime I do any package upgrades, my computer hangs on processing triggers for man-db for a while because of I/O error (my harddrive has bad sectors). Is it possible to re-write the db file somewhere else on the disk to avoid this?
[11:44] <RobinHood> if I were to say "oi", how long before I were kicked...
[11:44] <elijahsh> Hi! I've added the Banshee repository to ubuntu 10.10 and make apt-get update, but I still see v1.8. How to install 2.0?
[11:44] <ikonia> RobinHood: I advise you not to do it
[11:45] <made2shred> I tried updating from 10.10 to 11.04 and the updater crashed, i reebotted and now the system is f***ed. how can i fix this?
[11:45] <elijahsh> I've used this ppa:banshee-team/ppa
[11:45] <oCean> made2shred: 11.04 is still beta, discussion in #ubuntu+1
[11:45] <oCean> made2shred: also don't use such language there
[11:45] <RobinHood> ikonia : I _didn't_, I just asked. nevermind. Rhetorical & such.
[11:45] <Kartagis> ikonia: I was able to ssh in, but then that means useradd -p userpass user failed, because I had to do passwd user again
[11:46] <n8w_> im havin problems with runnin a cronjob...crontab -e: 50 10 * * * sh /home/user/script.sh...the path is correct,however the cronjob is never triggered...god knows why.any ideas?
[11:46] <made2shred> oCean: is there anything i can do to fix my system?
[11:46] <Kartagis> n8w_: is cron daemon running
[11:46] <Kartagis> ?
[11:46] <oCean> made2shred: ask in proper channel, not here
[11:47] <made2shred> okay thanks
[11:47] <n8w_> Kartagis:  htop shows cron runnin
[11:47] <Kartagis> n8w_: is /home/user/script.sh executable?
[11:48] <erUSUL> Kartagis: does not matter it runs sh scriptname
[11:48] <n8w_> Kartagis:  yep i can trigger it manually with no problems
[11:48] <Dementis> tjaaaalalalalalalalala
[11:48] <Kartagis> n8w_: although that wouldn't matter
[11:48] <erUSUL> n8w_: do "/bin/sh /home/user/script.sh"
[11:48] <Dementis> i need some sugar woman give me
[11:48] <oCean> Dementis: stop that please
[11:48] <Dementis> i like sugar
[11:48] <Dementis> okey sry
[11:49] <oCean> Dementis: this is ubuntu support, not chat
[11:49] <erUSUL> n8w_: also make sure the script can run in sh ( i.e. does not use some bash specific feature )
[11:49] <Dementis> and u suk
[11:49] <n8w_> Kartagis, erUSUL : one more thing, everytime the script.sh is executed i write a log,so i can cleraly see when it got triggered
[11:49] <n8w_> erUSUL:  ive tried both, sh / bash
[11:50] <oCean> n8w_: if you can see (from logging) that your script is executed, then how do you know it does not work?
[11:51] <n8w_> erUSUL:  i forgot to mention that i also have this in the cronjob : SHELL=/bin/bash
[11:51] <n8w_> oCean:  i mean if i execute the script.sh...this one writes a log
[11:51] <erUSUL> n8w_: so what is exactly the command you have in crontab?
[11:51] <Kartagis> n8w_: try 50 10 * * * /bin/bash /home/user/script.sh
[11:51] <n8w_> erUSUL:  tomcat restart
[11:52] <erUSUL> n8w_: SHELL=/bin/bash definend in the script itself makes little sense... can you post the script?
[11:53] <n8w_> erUSUL:  well apparently not, ive read an article suggestin it...
[11:53] <Saamm> nyone know how to make ubuntu indicator?
[11:53] <Kartagis> ikonia: I was able to ssh in, but then that means useradd -p userpass user failed, because I had to do passwd user again. could that be possible?
[11:53] <erUSUL> n8w_: again can yu post the exact line in crontab and the script? in a pastebin
[11:54] <micene> hi
[11:54] <dsuch> Hi, I've just asked about it on #ubuntufourms but since no one's replied in an hour and a half, I thought I'd try here now.
[11:54] <Saamm> nyone know how to make ubuntu indicator?
[11:54] <dsuch> I've just released software which is very happy to run on Ubuntu (it's a security proxy) and would like to let the people on  forums know about it.
[11:54] <nep0x> hey! anyone from holland?
[11:54] <dsuch> Was wondering if you could perhaps recommend the forum for sending out the announcement? The last thing I'd like to do is to have it  look like some sort of spam.
[11:54] <dsuch> I'm browsing the list of forums and can't quite find the right place (maybe there is none?)
[11:55] <micene> does anyone can tell me where i can find the "loader.conf" on my system (maverick 10.10) ? thanx
[11:55] <n8w_> erUSUL:  w8 a sec
[11:55] <erUSUL> ok
[11:55] <nep0x> locate loader.conf
[11:55] <erUSUL> !nd
[11:56] <High_Priest> micene, and "updatedb" as root before that if needed
[11:56] <nep0x> find locate.conf
[11:56] <micene> i try tx
[11:56] <micene> ok
[11:56] <n8w_> erUSUL:  hmm it seems like it takes different timezones
[11:57] <erUSUL> huh?
[11:57] <n8w_> erUSUL:  i mean, rite now i can see that it got executed 10:50 UTC, but i kept checkin the log since 10:00...
[11:58] <n8w_> erUSUL:  10:00 CEST
[11:58] <erUSUL> n8w_: ok so it works :)
[11:59] <n8w_> erUSUL:  the log gives me: Fri Apr  8 10:50:03 UTC 2011
[11:59] <n8w_> , but the date command gives me: Fri Apr  8 12:59:31 CEST 2011
[11:59] <n8w_> erUSUL:  ye well i guess that it works then;) but im still kinda confused about the different timezones
[12:00] <Kartagis> erUSUL: I have a problem. ikonia was helping me but now it seems he's gone. the problem I'm having is, I get FAIL LOGIN in vsftpd.log. I had created the user with useradd -m -N -p userpass user, but it seems this failed, because I had to do passwd user again. any ideas why useradd -p userpass user failed?
[12:02] <micene> bye
[12:02] <nyk2005> I just got a SheevaPlug with ubuntu installed on it. But I have a problem I can solve. Running "apt-get update" hangs at "[Connecting to ports.ubuntu.com (<IP_ADDRESS>)][Connecting to ports.ubuntu.com (<IP_ADDRESS>)][Connecting to ports.ubuntu.com (<IP_ADDRESS>)]" and then timeouts. But for example "ping google.com" works, so the connection to the inet is there. Why can it still not work?
[12:02] <erUSUL> Kartagis: well useradd is tricky. that password you pass to useradd -p has to be in *encrypted* form
[12:02] <nyk2005> I mean: I have a problem, I can *not* solve! :)
[12:03] <asd2> When I type about:config into Unity it wont do anything. I have compzconfig. How can I conf Unity?
[12:03] <Kartagis> erUSUL: then I must do a echo "userpass" | md5 ?
[12:03] <erUSUL> Kartagis: i think there is aperl oneliner to get it...
[12:03] <n8w_> erUSUL:  well thx for your help anywai;)
[12:03] <erUSUL> Kartagis: md5sum wont cut it.
[12:04] <asd2> Does unity have like a configuration file where I could set autohide to false?
[12:04] <bittyx-laptop> can you refer me to a GUI for burning cd's in ubuntu, that has advanced options, such as burning speed, joliet names, etc. ?
[12:05] <Kartagis> erUSUL: I have to make a script to add the user for me. it has to also encrypt the password then
[12:05] <lugkhast> asd2: You can set that in CCSM
[12:05] <erUSUL> !info newusers | Kartagis
[12:06] <Kartagis> !find newusers
[12:06] <erUSUL> Kartagis: do « man newusers »
[12:11] <Kartagis> erUSUL: do you know what encryption user passwords use?
[12:11] <kawohi> hey anybody up
[12:11] <innefu> Hello, I want to use Ubuntu in command line,, how I can un-install Gnome GUI and just boot in command mode ,, or just use tty1-6
[12:12] <nyk2005> I just got a SheevaPlug with ubuntu installed on it. But I have a problem I can not solve: Running "apt-get update" hangs at "[Connecting to ports.ubuntu.com (<IP_ADDRESS>)]", and then timeouts. But "ping google.com" works, so the connection to the inet is there. Why could it still not work?
[12:12] <innefu> Is there any Ubuntu mimimal available ?? where there is no Desktop manager
[12:13] <kawohi> I guess all the experts are asleep :)
[12:13] <innefu> nyk2005, try setting up local mirror !! btw which version are you using ??
[12:13] <innefu> nyk2005, you can also configure different mirror..
[12:14] <Kartagis> !ask | kawohi
[12:14] <Kartagis> innefu: you could try ubuntu server
[12:14] <kawohi> I been trying to share some files from my windows 7 laptop, with no success. I installed Samba but I still don't see nothing in Places->Network->PC
[12:15] <Kartagis> kawohi: are they in the same workgroup or in the same subnet?
[12:15] <innefu> Kartagis, I want minimal Ubuntu ?? how i can do it
[12:16] <Kartagis> !minimal
[12:16] <Polah> innefu: You need to get the minimal ISO
[12:16] <kawohi> I have no idea. I'm kind of a noobie with this stuff. I did turn on home sharing on windows 7 tho. They are in the same network
[12:16] <Kartagis> innefu: ^^
[12:16] <nyk2005> ineefu: It has "deb http://ports.ubuntu.com jaunty main restricted universe multiverse" in /etc/apt/sources.list. I could not find a mirror for it. But why does it need a local mirror? I have a net connection.
[12:16] <Kartagis> !minimal | innefu
[12:17] <innefu> Polah, will minimal CD (12Mb) download extra package form Internet ........... I do not want pakage.. I just want plain terminal !!
[12:17] <Polah> innefu: Yes. If you want to install things from the minimal ISO it needs to downloadi t
[12:18] <Polah> If you don't install anything, you'll have the command line, and a small handful of some other stuff, I don't know what exactly.
[12:18] <innefu> Polah, I just want terminal and no desktop manager - will minimal CD help me ?
[12:18] <Polah> Yes.
[12:18] <kawohi> So... does anybody know how can I access my files?
[12:18] <Polah> kawohi: What's up with them?
[12:18] <Boothk> what's up kawohi?
[12:19] <GOMI> can i use "envy" for my nvidia card because of the problems of flickering ???
[12:19] <kawohi> I want to access my other files on my Windows 7 desktop. I set up home sharing and I still don't the files in places > network
[12:19] <kawohi> only the computer name.
[12:19] <nyk2005> ineefu: the strange thing is, I cannot ping ports.ubuntu.com, but ubuntu.com works!
[12:20] <Boothk> kawohi: Personally, I use an FTP server on my PC for file sharing. So much more simpler than messing with shared folders
[12:20] <nyk2005> ineefu: but I can reach http://ports.ubuntu.com from my browser. Very strange!
[12:21] <Jernej_Work> i have a beand new issue: i cannot run any programs.. i'm in the program's dir but it says it can't find  the file when i execute it..
[12:21] <kawohi> What would I need to start doing that?

[12:22] <Jernej_Work> -bash: ./announce: No such file or directory
[12:22] <Jernej_Work> i already did that
[12:22] <Flannel> Jernej_Work: Your paste had "announce*" as the filename
[12:22] <BentFranklin> A file is called "foo".  stat("Foo"), stat("FOO") and stat("foO") all return "foo"'s fileinfo.  How I turn off case-folding for stat?
[12:22] <Jernej_Work> announce is the name of the program.
[12:22] <Boothk> kawohi: I use Filezilla. Whether or not it works on Linux is beyond me. But you can generally download from FTP using most web browsers (i.e. ftp://<IP_ADDRESS>)
[12:22] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: it sounds like missing dynamic libraries
[12:22] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: run "file announce" please
[12:22] <Jernej_Work> announce: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, stripped
[12:23] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: ldd announce (put it in a pastebin)
[12:23] <Boothk> kawohi: so if you set up a server on your win7 machine, you could download from it, but not upload
[12:23] <kawohi> I don't need a host or anything? Also I have a pretty weak internet connection atm.
[12:23] <Boothk> kawohi: Host it on a LAN. That's what you're doing, isn't it?
[12:23] <Kartagis> ikonia: do you know what encryption user passwords use?
[12:23] <ikonia> Kartagis: sha I think
[12:23] <kawohi> I guess.
[12:23] <Jernej_Work> there is no ldd
[12:23] <Jernej_Work> apt-get can't find it either
[12:24] <Boothk> Kawohi: Also, type my name to address me. It's easy to lose messages in a huge IRC like this
[12:24] <Polah> Kartagis, ikonia, some people were discussing this yesterday. Someone said SHA512
[12:24] <GOMI> my pc is kicking me out every time to the login screen ?
[12:24] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: ldd should be on your machine
[12:24] <kawohi> Boothk:  yeah I always forget too. Ok I will.
[12:24] <Jernej_Work> ah wait
[12:24] <GOMI> and shuts down all programs i was working on
[12:24] <Jernej_Work> ps@ID7382:~/samp03$ ldd announce
[12:24] <Jernej_Work>         not a dynamic executable
[12:24] <r4y> how do I move a hidden file from the terminal?
[12:24] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: there you go
[12:24] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: thats the problem
[12:24] <Jernej_Work> ?
[12:24] <edwinkcw> r4y: mv .filename location
[12:24] <Jernej_Work> explain?
[12:24] <ikonia> Kartagis: just told you the problem
[12:24] <kawohi> Boothk:  I have a really weak web connection. whats the best option for me you think?
[12:25] <fairuz> r4y: like a normal file
[12:25] <r4y> that easy, great, thank you
[12:25] <Polah> r4y: Just do the same as you would for any other file. Just put the . before it as it is in its name
[12:25] <ikonia> Kartagis: sorry, not you
[12:25] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: ldd just told you the problem
[12:25] <Boothk> r4y: use cd to navigate to the folder, use ls -a to show the hidden files, use rm -R to delete entire folders
[12:25] <Homely_Girl> Hi guys, have upgraded to Maverick (wow, so smooth) but cannot get my HP1000 printer working! Can anyone help? I found a forum all in higher geek speak! :(
[12:25] <Jernej_Work> it's saying the exe is no good?
[12:25] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: where did you get it
[12:25] <Polah> Boothk: I believe that's -r for recursive removal
[12:25] <Jernej_Work> from another server.
[12:25] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: can you link me to it ?
[12:25] <Jernej_Work> copied it over with winscp and uploaded to new one
[12:26] <Boothk> kawohi: Just so we're clear - both your linux and windows computers are on the same network?
[12:26] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: ahh, it's missing dependencies in the libraries
[12:26] <Polah> Boothk, apparently it can use both. My mistake.
[12:26] <Jernej_Work> i guess i can just download it again in a different way?
[12:26] <r4y> I asked because of the last comment from this link:
[12:26] <r4y> http://serverfault.com/questions/231983/move-files-from-subfolder-to-current-folder
[12:26] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: it looks like it was linked against libraries on the other machine that are not on this machine
[12:26] <bazhang> check linuxprinting.org Homely_Girl
[12:26] <kawohi> Boothk: Yes
[12:26] <Homely_Girl> bazhang: Will do, thanks.
[12:26] <verac> Homely_Girl: i think it's fair assessment to say you need to find a local nerd
[12:26] <Jernej_Work> ikonia, the program isn't linked to any specific libraries other than stock ones..
[12:26] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: how do you know ?
[12:26] <Jernej_Work> it's a simple announce program for sa-mp dedicated server
[12:26] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: what operating system was it on the old one
[12:27] <Jernej_Work> same as this one.
[12:27] <Boothk> kawohi: Then your internet connection is completely irrelevant. The computers will connect directly without having to go online at all
[12:27] <Homely_Girl> verac: It would seem they are still asleep!! I did find a local lug, but nobody's home!!
[12:27] <Jernej_Work> ubuntu server 10-10
[12:27] <ikonia> Jernej_Work ok so you need to look at what libraries are missing/diferent between the two
[12:27] <r4y> anyways thank you
[12:27] <verac> Homely_Girl: bummer. well, good luck anyways :)
[12:27] <Jernej_Work> old server:
[12:27] <Jernej_Work> 2.6.35-27-server #48-Ubuntu SMP Tue Feb 22 21:53:16 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[12:27] <Jernej_Work> new one is:
[12:27] <Jernej_Work> 2.6.35-22-server #33-Ubuntu SMP Sun Sep 19 20:48:58 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[12:27] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: ok, so at slightly different versions, that maybe part of the problem, or simpley libraries missing
[12:27] <Homely_Girl> verac: Thanks, looking at linuxprinting now....
[12:28] <edwinkcw> Jernej_Work: do you compile the program again in other computer?
[12:28] <Jernej_Work> i wan the program on old version.
[12:28] <Jernej_Work> i didn't compile this
[12:28] <Kartagis> useradd -m -N -p `echo "somepasswd"|sha512sum` abcuser <--- why wouldn't this work?
[12:28] <edwinkcw> Jernej_Work: you just use a file compiled from other computer?
[12:28] <Jernej_Work> yes.
[12:28] <kawohi> Aw... Actually... I'm using my windows 7 and Connectify to make a hotspot so I have a strong connection in my room. and connecting to the connectify hotspot.. not the connection my laptop is using
[12:28] <Boothk> Kartagis: Ha! I had the same problem today!
[12:28] <Jernej_Work> a executable which just sends a http request and nothing else.
[12:29] <edwinkcw> can you try compile it?
[12:29] <Jernej_Work> it's not linked to any magical libraries.
[12:29] <kawohi> Do I even need internet to share files ?
[12:29] <kawohi> Boothk:
[12:29] <edwinkcw> Jernej_Work: just a trial. No idea yet
[12:29] <Boothk> Kartagis: I used "echo "password\npassword\n" | sudo adduser newuser"
[12:30] <Kartagis> Boothk: I'm just trying to create a script to add users for me, and not have to type the password manually
[12:30] <nyk2005> I just got a SheevaPlug with ubuntu installed on it. But I have a problem I can not solve: Running "apt-get update" hangs at "[Connecting to ports.ubuntu.com (<IP_ADDRESS>)]", and then timeouts. But "ping ubuntu.com" works, so the connection to the inet is there. It has "deb http://ports.ubuntu.com jaunty main restricted universe multiverse" in /etc/apt/sources.list. Strangely, "ping ports.ubuntu.com" does not work, but I can connect to http://ports.ubuntu.co
[12:30] <nyk2005> m from my laptop. What could be the problem?
[12:30] <Boothk> Kartagis: Runs adduser, and sends the password info in via echo
[12:30] <Kartagis> Boothk: wow, relief
[12:30] <Boothk> kawohi: If both your machines are on the same Local Area Network, then NO.
[12:30] <Kartagis> let me try that
[12:31]  * Boothk reads up because he missed something Kawohi said, which wasn't addressed to him =/
[12:32] <Boothk> Kawohi: You've got several options. If you're using the internet to do this (both machines connecting online via different connections), then it's a bit more complicated and more than I've done
[12:32] <test1234> Hello everyone, know if the program spotify is supported by the wine program loader? I can't install the exe file. (Note, this is the first time i use wine and ubuntu).
[12:33] <GOMI> are there PROBLEMS known BETWEEN  ...NVIDIA and COMPIZ ??
[12:33] <Boothk> Kawohi: If you have a router and both your computers are connected to it, there's no need for the connections to go out
[12:33] <GOMI> because i think thats whats makes my screen flickers ??
[12:33] <iceroot> !appdb | test1234
[12:33] <GOMI> but dont know how to handle it ?
[12:33] <kawohi> Boothk: i'm not using a router.. i'm using a unsecured connection '_____'
[12:34] <kawohi> then using connectify to extend that connection
[12:35] <Boothk> kawohi: Never heard of connectify
[12:35] <kawohi> it makes ur laptop into a hotspot
[12:36] <Boothk> kawohi: So it's basically the connection sharing feature in Windows?
[12:36] <kawohi> Yes, I guess.
[12:38] <przemoReX> hi, I've got a question about mountin smb shares
[12:39] <Jernej_Work> ikonia, i re-downloaded the binary files and they still won't execute.
[12:39] <przemoReX> how to change the users group of the mounted folder?
[12:39] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: where from ?
[12:39] <Jernej_Work> http://team.sa-mp.com/files/samp03csvr_R2-2.tar.gz
[12:40] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: so it stands to reason it's missing a library theren
[12:40] <ikonia> then
[12:40] <Jernej_Work> ikonia, it's not missing any libraries.
[12:40] <przemoReX> I cant's change group on SMB mounted files, can anybody help?
[12:40] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: how do you know ?
[12:40] <Jernej_Work> because it runs fine on any other server?
[12:40] <Jernej_Work> stock
[12:40] <AntiSociaL> wood
[12:40] <Jernej_Work> you can try it yourself.
[12:41] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: so ?
[12:41] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: I just did,
[12:41] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: it failed ona redhat6 box
[12:41] <Jernej_Work> what message?
[12:41] <AntiSociaL> bet this channel is good when it gets going
[12:41] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: I'm missing /lib/ld-linux.so.2
[12:41] <vadim_> hello
[12:41] <Jernej_Work> i get no such messages
[12:41] <ikonia> that's not the error message
[12:42] <ikonia> the error message is the same as yours
[12:42] <ikonia> however I just debugged
[12:42] <Jernej_Work> ok
[12:42] <Jernej_Work> sec
[12:45] <omid> how can i add thunderbird and pidgin to the pannel applet instead of evolution and empathy?
[12:46] <Kartagis> omid: right click on the panel and add from there
[12:47] <Kartagis> Boothk: I tried what you suggested and now my /etc/shadow looks like this: bilgisayarciniz.org:!:15072:0:99999:7:::
[12:47] <Jernej_Work> so what is  /lib/ld-linux.so.2 ?
[12:47] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: link library
[12:47] <Jernej_Work> i mean it is part of what?
[12:47] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: dynamic linker
[12:47] <Jernej_Work> what do i need to get to have it :>
[12:48] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: anyway, as you said, "no libraries are missing"
[12:48] <ikonia> Jernej_Work: so good luck
[12:48] <Jernej_Work> :/
[12:48] <Boothk> Kartagis: ?
[12:48] <Boothk> Kartagis: I don't have long, btw
[12:48] <omid> Kartagis i want to have thunderbird and pidgin on the pannel mail applet which is now belongs to empathy and evolution.
[12:49] <Kartagis> Boothk: it didn't assign a password I'm afraid
[12:49] <Jernej_Work> why are you being such a douche now. I was sure no libraries were missing as i was used to linux telling me about missing libraries in the past, i never saw it fail silently with file not found errors..
[12:49] <Boothk> Kartagis: It didn't tell you that when you executed the command?
[12:49] <bazhang> Jernej_Work, watch the language and attitude
[12:50] <Jernej_Work> i'm not trolling, just looking for help.
[12:50] <przemoReX> I cant change owner atribs on SMB mounted files, can anybody help?
[12:50] <Boothk> Kartagis: You did use | sudo adduser user and not | sudo useradd user, right?
[12:50] <Kartagis> Boothk: it asked me for the password and sent it I think, but that's the line from the shadow file
[12:50] <kpluta> ziomki?
[12:50] <Kartagis> Boothk: yes
[12:50] <Boothk> Kartagis: It's beyond me then. I have to go now though =/

[13:03] <nyk2005> I just got a SheevaPlug with ubuntu installed on it. But I have a problem I can not solve: Running "apt-get update" hangs at "[Connecting to ports.ubuntu.com (<IP_ADDRESS>)]", and then timeouts. But "ping ubuntu.com" works, so the connection to the inet is there. It has "deb http://ports.ubuntu.com jaunty main restricted universe multiverse" in /etc/apt/sources.list. Strangely, "ping ports.ubuntu.com" does not work, but I can connect to http://ports.ubuntu.co
[13:03] <nyk2005> m from my laptop.  Which is video has the best performance on ubuntu? I mean which can play the movie with the highest bit rate on a pc with the lowest specs?
[13:05] <kourasmenos> anyone intersted helping a noob?
[13:05] <natrixnatrix89> I mean which video player?
[13:05] <jrib> kourasmenos: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[13:05] <userdel> edwinkcw: well i am with DoD US and they provide me with only command line
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> natrixnatrix89: something light like audacious
[13:06] <GOMI> what is a "MODULE-ALSA-CARD"

[13:06] <edwinkcw> userdel: just curious what the swf is?
[13:06] <edwinkcw> userdel: you must have a GUI to view swf file
[13:06] <natrixnatrix89> ActionParsnip: thank you.. how can I search for the lightest players?
[13:06] <ActionParsnip> mathmoi: they are unofficial so technically no, but itshould be fine
[13:06] <userdel> edwinkcw: forget it.
[13:06] <ActionParsnip> natrixnatrix89: use websearches
[13:06] <kourasmenos> im trying to setup a wired internet connection to bt4 r2 using terminal sudo start-network...but whats the pass ?
[13:06] <GOMI> i have alot of failed about that module-alsa-card
[13:06] <mathmoi> ActionParsnip: Thanks.
[13:06] <GOMI> in user.log
[13:07] <ActionParsnip> kourasmenos: ask in the backtrack channel
[13:07] <jrib> mathmoi: same as any other ppa, you trust the author
[13:07] <kourasmenos> which is?

[13:07] <mang0> Guys, I want to use ubuntu, and I'm just checking - there is a way to use ubuntu as one big file on windows right? So all the programs and stuff you download are in one big file...amirite?
[13:07] <GOMI> really nobody ?
[13:07] <jrib> mang0: it's called wubi
[13:07] <kourasmenos> ah...didnt see it at the list :(
[13:08] <nyk2005> ActionParsnip: hey, thanks for the information! So this explains why it not working? Would there by any reposity that I can add to sources.list so I can dist-upgrade to a newer version supporting armv5tejl? Or can I give up ubuntu and install debian?
[13:08] <mang0> jrib: wubi? So is it normal Ubuntu, or does it have differances to say, partitioning
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> nyk2005: not sure, see what there is around. I'm trying Debian for the first time right now :D
[13:08] <jrib> mang0: ubuntu resides on a file in your ntfs partition

[13:09] <mang0> :/ lol
[13:09] <hutch> ActionParsnip, do you know about Linux Mint Debian Edition?
[13:10] <oxodesign> hi my apache runs under www-data user, why on earth when creating a new directory with "mkdir" (PHP) does that folder get as owner the "root" user?
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> hutch: I've used Mint once, didn't like it
[13:10] <edwinkcw> oxodesign: because you use mkdir with sudo
[13:11] <hutch> ActionParsnip, np it was just that that particular edition is based on Debian testing (rolling release) rather than 6 monthly ubuntu based cycle
[13:11] <oxodesign> also can I somehow add permissions to a folder so all child folders that are created later will inherit that permission?
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> hutch: yeah, its different. Could be interesting :)
[13:12] <oxodesign> edwinkcw: its not me how does that its php :)
[13:12] <edwinkcw> oxodesign: use chmod a+S parent_folder -R
[13:12] <przemoReX> what should I set to be able to edit owner atributs on SMB mounted files?
[13:12] <hutch> ActionParsnip,  I think they're switching all their community editions except kde to debian base
[13:13] <edwinkcw> oxodesign: how your php create a folder?
[13:13] <kourasmenos> there's no bt channel :(
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> kourasmenos: /join #backtrack-linux
[13:14] <kourasmenos> ah tnx :)
[13:14] <magpiie> hi peeps. major issue here, no matter what i try and do, i cannot get videos working on the google or you tube. i have uninstalled and re installed flash numerous times and still no use
[13:14] <oxodesign> edwinkcw: i just do mkdir(dirname, 0777) ...
[13:14] <g0tcha> is there a way to give custom home directories to users in a certain group?
[13:14] <ActionParsnip> kourasmenos: it was listed in the ubottu output earlier.....
[13:14] <dcorbin_work> I have an Ubuntu 9 system.  I'm going to restore it to another ubuntu system by restoring the entire filesystem (tarball) to it.  What command do I need to run to get the correct kernel booting on it?
[13:14] <ActionParsnip> g0tcha: that is default behaviour
[13:14] <magpiie> videos play fine on other channels, but anything running the you tube engine wont play
[13:14] <edwinkcw> oxodesign: but it is weird that php have a power to create a root directory
[13:15] <g0tcha> ActionParsnip, right now if i add a new user1 thats part of group test01, their home dir would be /home/user1
[13:15] <g0tcha> ActionParsnip, but what i want is if i add user1 to group test01, i want them to use /home/test01/user1 as their home dir. if that makes any sense
[13:16] <obscurant1st> i have ttf font for my native language, what should i do for enabling it in ubuntu, i created a .fonts directory in my home dir and put the ttf font in that directory, but still the website which uses that fonr is not deisplaying correctly
[13:16] <obscurant1st> :(
[13:16] <jatt> which language
[13:17] <obscurant1st> jatt, malayalam, do you knw?
[13:17] <oxodesign> edwinkcw: i don't know how but it does! I have first to give access to parent folder so apache/php can write to it, but the folder I create using mkdir() its own by root!
[13:17] <Saturn2888> I'm having some really strange issue. I rebooted my machine and get a "mountall: mount / [xxx] terminated with status 32"
[13:18] <edwinkcw> oxodesign: I understand your situation but really got no idea
[13:18] <ActionParsnip> g0tcha: when you run adduser you can use the -d option to specify the home folder
[13:18] <UDPError> Hey guys I currently have a dual boot, Fedora / Windows 7. I'd like to replace Fedora but it's a LVM system. Now, personally I don't really know what that means other than Logical volume manager. It is it's own container if I'm correct. now. how would I install ubuntu? Do I delete all Linux partitions and then let the installer do everything? or can I just format the current partitions? /home / and /boot ?
[13:18] <oxodesign> edwinkcw: I get this error "invalid mode: `a+S'" when running the command you suggested
[13:19] <ikonia> UDPError: the installer will overwrite it for you
[13:19] <edwinkcw> oxodesign: sorry, should be chmod +s
[13:19] <g0tcha> ActionParsnip, ah so cant do it per group huh
[13:19] <edwinkcw> oxodesign: you may take some time to read it http://www.comptechdoc.org/os/linux/usersguide/linux_ugfilesp.html
[13:19] <UDPError> ikonia what's the option?
[13:20] <oxodesign> thnx edwinkcw
[13:20] <ikonia> UDPError: what do you mean, what's the option
[13:20] <Saturn2888> I'm having some really strange issue. I rebooted my machine and get a "mountall: mount / [xxx] terminated with status 32" and then it asks me to press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery but in either case, it seems to be loading my root partition fine, it's just mounting as read-only which prevents me from making gamchanges or fixing whatever's wrong however I'd do that. It also says "mountall: filesystem could not be mounted: / " and "An erro
