[04:57] <jack_> surya: i am unfamilair with the usbtest script. sorry.
[04:58] <jack_> jack12345: hmmm
[04:58] <sacarlson> abhilash: sounds like your gateway is not withit the mask of your local lan,  can you pastebin your route?  sudo route | pastebinit

[04:58] <ninina> I feel sad that I have to ask this question, but is there a way to install Ubuntu on a system and use the existing window boot loader rather then grub?
[04:58] <surya> jack-, ok for whom i want to contact to get the usbtest information?
[04:58] <maco> ninina: wubi
[04:58] <Jeffrey_> Okay I fixed it to where it won't switch back. (turns out it's was a issue with GDM)
[04:58] <jack_> jack12345: "WARNING: Failed to read mirror file"
[04:58] <hilarie> Anyone Have any theories on how the internet could be down, I.E. pinging google is not possible, loading webpages impossible etc,
[04:59] <hilarie> And yet, you are reading this?
[04:59] <jack_> ninina: not with the ubuntu installer. i think there maybe 3rd party applications that will do it for you
[04:59] <sacarlson> surya: there are many ways to test the speed of a disk that's not the only method
[04:59] <Jeffrey_> Now I need to find out why my right Alt key isn't seen right.
[04:59] <hilarie> Can't even ping the modem, and yet, here I am
[04:59] <hilarie> "Gateway" sorry
[04:59] <jack_> hilarie: i would assume that you are not connected to the internet :)
[04:59] <abhilash> sacarlson: should i try this with my wireless?
[04:59] <hilarie> I offer you conclusive proof that I am!
[04:59] <hilarie> (That was the proof)
[05:00] <jack_> hilarie: :)
[05:00] <jack_> hilarie: how did you connect to freenode if you cant ping google? h
[05:00] <jack_> haha
[05:00] <Jeffrey_> Does anyone know why it says ISO_L instead of ALT_R?
[05:00] <sacarlson> abhilash: you do it from your terminal oh since you have no internet then route >file.txt
[05:00] <abhilash> sacarlson: I'll try it and manually paste in pastebin.......
[05:00] <jack_> hilarie: not all devices return pings.
[05:00] <surya> sacarlson, ok yaar give other methods links or procedures
[05:01] <jack_> hilarie: you can't ping ANYTHING? do you have a firewall blocking icmp?

[05:01] <sacarlson> abhilash: or just route on a terminal?  not sure how we will be able to see it
[05:01] <Jeffrey_> Or more importantly how I fix it?
[05:02] <jack12345> @jack_ : that may not be the issue

[05:03] <DaGeek247> nvm, ithouht you had been devoiced..
[05:03] <hilarie> I can ping <IP_ADDRESS> and nothing else
[05:03] <rww> DaGeek247: they were
[05:03] <jack_> hilarie: can you ping your own IP?
[05:03] <hilarie> Nope!
[05:03] <jack_> wat
[05:03] <jack_> whats your ip address?
[05:03] <hilarie> I can ping 1 of 2 DNSs they have
[05:04] <hilarie> No idea, I am behind a NAT
[05:04] <hilarie> And don't have the internet to look it up
[05:04] <hilarie> LOL
[05:04] <jack_> hilarie: i meaned your NAT ip

[05:04] <satya> set
[05:04] <hilarie> No, wifi one
[05:04] <jack_> wlan0?
[05:04] <hilarie> Yar
[05:04] <^Phantom^> hi
[05:04] <^Phantom^> !offtopic
[05:04] <jack_> hilarie: type ifconfig wlan0 and get the ip address
[05:04] <jack_> ^Phantom^: hi
[05:04] <Rav3n> can somebody explain how to set encryption un ubuntu?
[05:05] <Rav3n> for /home folder
[05:05] <jack_> ^Phantom^: you get you stuff working :)
[05:05] <^Phantom^> jack_, yep
[05:05] <jack_> good
[05:05] <hilarie>           inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS>  Bcast:<IP_ADDRESS>  Mask:<IP_ADDRESS>
[05:05] <jack_> hilarie: can you ping <IP_ADDRESS>?
[05:05] <Jeffrey_> Does anyone know how I can get ubuntu to recognize my right ALT key?
[05:06] <hilarie> >1MS
[05:06] <hilarie> This issue is being replicated on a 2nd laptop with ubuntu, the same 2nd laptop in win7
[05:06] <hilarie> It's like my ISP isn't allowing new connections or something
[05:06] <jack_> hilarie: perhaps
[05:07] <jack_> hilarie: you can ping yoru gateway and yourslef though right?
[05:07] <hilarie> It's freakin Crazy
[05:07] <sacarlson> Jeffrey_: it just works for me, how do you know your alt key isn't recognized?  might look at System>preference>keyboard
[05:07] <hilarie> I can ping myself, my router, my 2ndary DNS, but I can't ping my ISPs mailserver, or anything off my island
[05:07] <hilarie> And yet, here I am
[05:07] <tuki> dkks
[05:07] <jack_> hilarie: maybe somebody tripped over the cable connecting the two routers
[05:08] <jack_> hilarie: maybe you are connected through a local proxy?
[05:08] <tucemiux> hilarie, ping could be blocked on whatever youre pinging
[05:08] <sacarlson> hilarie: I guess it's a dns problem?  dig yahoo.com
[05:08] <hilarie> Not that I am aware of, its my DSL modem to router 1, from router 1 to router 2
[05:08] <jack12345> any other suggestions guys?
[05:09] <GeekyAdam> hi all
[05:09] <Jeffrey_> sacarison: well for one none of the shortcut work with that key and also I clicked the show button on the layout and it shows up as ISO_L for some reason.
[05:09] <hilarie> ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
[05:09] <abhilash> sacarlson: jack_ : http://pastebin.com/bPqbrRX4 here is my route for wireless, looks gateway is not there.......
[05:09] <tucemiux> hilarie, sounds like somewhere along the way the ping is getting blocked, can you trace the ping?
[05:09] <^Phantom^> Linux OSes by default are unable to read .wma songs, right?
[05:09] <sacarlson> abhilash: ok reading
[05:09] <hilarie> sec
[05:09] <hilarie> you mean do tracert?
[05:09] <tucemiux> yes
[05:09] <jack_> abhilash: if its not connected you wont have a gateway. if you are connected you can add the gateway with 'route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS>' or w/e your gw is
[05:10] <GeekyAdam> im trying hard to get triple monitors working again with 10.10. i did it before but i cant for the life of me get it to work again. i was wondering if anyone here uses triple monitors and if so i could get a look at their xorg.conf file?
[05:10] <DaGeek247> Phantom yea
[05:10] <jack_> hilarie: i woudl assume that your DNS is down. how did you connect to freenode?
[05:10] <Taffy> hmmm i was watching and someone said wi-fi then dsl
[05:10] <tucemiux> ^Phantom^, exactly
[05:10] <sacarlson> abhilash: yup, you have no default gateway at all,  do you have it setup as static or with auto dhcp?
[05:10] <^Phantom^> DaGeek247, tucemiux, thank you
[05:10] <hilarie> Jack this is what I want to know!
[05:10] <abhilash> sacarlson: i have done it auto dhcp, i can also do static, which is better to do?
[05:10] <jack_> hilarie: if you are unable to ping a nameserver that you should be able to ping i would assume that it is down.
[05:10] <g_0_0> hilarie, perhaps in dns cache?
[05:11] <jack_> ^
[05:11] <jack_> hilarie: can you ping <IP_ADDRESS>?
[05:11] <hilarie> What is DNS Cache, I would google it, but, you know...
[05:11] <sacarlson> abhilash: well the dhcp should have returned you a gateway so try sudo dhclient wlan0  see what the dhcp give you
[05:11] <hilarie> I can ping that
[05:11] <tucemiux> troll?? o_O
[05:11] <g_0_0> :)
[05:11] <jack_> local DNS servers will cache results so they dont have to keep asking their parents
[05:12] <jack_> hilarie: put it in your webbrowser
[05:12] <^Phantom^> jack_, you seem to be popular again lol
[05:12] <jack_> and try to navigate to it
[05:12] <jack12345> Last Call please....: any other suggestions by anyone on resolving my upgrade error?
[05:12] <Jeffrey_> Okay I think I've found a fix: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1277966
[05:12] <jack_> ^Phantom^: im always popular :D
[05:12] <hilarie> lol
[05:12] <Jeffrey_> Thanks anyways.
[05:12] <hilarie> google! at <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:12] <jack_> jack12345: i'd hunt around on google for a bit.
[05:12] <jack_> hilarie: indeed. your DNS is borked.
[05:12] <jack12345> i tried google for an hour before i came to IRC :D
[05:13] <g_0_0> hilarie set your dns to open dns servers see if you have more luck - <IP_ADDRESS>             <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:13] <hilarie> If only my ISP had a person there after 5pm
[05:13] <jack_> jack12345: but you didn't try what i todl you to try right? that was the first result on google
[05:13] <Bing0> Hi.  Ubuntu 10.10.  What is the cmd in terminal to restart ALSA?
[05:13] <jack_> hilarie: what island are you on?
[05:13] <tucemiux> ahhhh if you plan on having a funky setup with DSL server, router 1, router2, etc, you would be wise to read up on DNS
[05:13] <hilarie> Ravillagagato (SP?) Ketchikan Alaska
[05:13] <abhilash> sacarlson: http://pastebin.com/CY6EjbPq here is the output for that
[05:13] <jack_> hilarie: just walk over to the other side of of the island and slap the snot out of the guy and be like 'what now bind?!'
[05:13] <jack12345> yea,....but anyways nothing worked yet....most threads ask to keep hitting check button and try again...
[05:13] <GeekyAdam> anyone using multiple monitors on ubuntu willing to let me see their xorg.conf file?
[05:14] <jack_> jack12345: yeah. its peculiar that you're hitting this.
[05:14] <jack_> the error doesn't give much insight on tot what hte issue is. maybe a logfile will? check in your /var/log directory to see if you get any more output
[05:14] <jack_> jack12345: ^
[05:14] <hilarie> What is an open DNS?
[05:14] <jack_> hilarie: its a DNS server that is public on the internets
[05:15] <jack12345> log dir has a bunch of files...which one should i look at?
[05:15] <tucemiux> hilarie,, has 2 routers and doesnt know what open DNS is o_O
[05:15] <hilarie> better reliability, or if my local DNS borks would I still be borked
[05:15] <jack_> jack12345: the most recently updated. do an 'ls -lart' the latest will be at the bottom
[05:15] <abhilash> jack_: sacarlson: http://pastebin.com/CY6EjbPq here is the output for sudo dhclient wlan0
[05:15] <Viru-N> how to set the pathname?
[05:15] <jack_> hilarie: the ideal situtation is that your local dns gets fixed
[05:15] <g_0_0> hilarie set your dns to the ips I gave you
[05:15] <hilarie> @Tucemiux I just turned off the DHCP and made the IP on the 2nd router .2 vs .1
[05:16] <tucemiux> Viru-N, typically in your .bashrc but I could be wrong, it depends on the shell that you use
[05:16] <jack_> abhilash: i think you're supposed to get a dhcp offer there
[05:16] <hilarie> those IP's are unreachable at this time, no ping
[05:16] <Viru-N> is there any file named by .bash_profile?
[05:16] <jack_> tucemiux: i think he means on his island
[05:16] <g_0_0> hilarie - no ping, not just a dns problem then
[05:16] <vishal> #mysql
[05:16] <sacarlson> abhilash: seems you dhcp server isn't responding
[05:16] <GeekyAdam> anyone using multiple monitors?
[05:17] <hilarie> I hate living in the middle of nowhere...
[05:17] <jack_> GeekyAdam: i use dual monitor on fedora if that helps.
[05:17] <sacarlson> abhilash: is the wifi ap encryipted?
[05:17] <Jeffrey_> Well un checking R Alt under Keys to choose 3rd level and applying that system wide seemed to do the trick.
[05:17] <philip___> hilarie , same here. But least I have wired DSL where I live...
[05:17] <jack_> GeekyAdam: i use the nvidida untility to setup dual monitors
[05:17] <hilarie> Imma gonna go leave my ISP a nasty voicemail
[05:17] <abhilash> sacarlson: yes it has a password, not encrypted.
[05:17] <GeekyAdam> jack_: do you use seperate x screens?
[05:17] <hilarie> @philip I am wired, through a phone line right?
[05:17] <Bing0> Hi.  Ubuntu 10.10.  What is the cmd in terminal to restart ALSA?
[05:17] <jack_> GeekyAdam: no. twinview
[05:17] <philip___> Yeah
[05:18] <sacarlson> abhilash: password means it's encryted,  with wep or wpa?
[05:18] <lushous> i want learn about the C/C++
[05:18] <philip___> I have no issues on my end.
[05:18] <abhilash> i'll try with the static ip and try setting with gateway........
[05:18] <lushous> can you give me some advice?
[05:18] <abhilash> sacarlson: yes its wpa
[05:18] <jack_> lushous: buy a book
[05:18] <Viru-N> where i wanted to set path name/
[05:18] <cabbie-w7> question: I'm installing Ubuntu from a thumb drive and want to allocate more space to it. I clicked 'advanced' after it booted it up and not sure how to proceed with giving Ubuntu the amount of space I want.
[05:18] <sacarlson> abhilash: ok has it ever worked?
[05:18] <GeekyAdam> jack_: im trying to setup seperate x screens for each monitor. had it before but reinstalled now i cant figure it out.
[05:18] <jack_> Viru-N: wat
[05:18] <lushous> yes
[05:19] <jack_> GeekyAdam: if you're using nvidida why not use the nvidia gui utility? :D
[05:19] <philip___> Might not be THEIR problem, it might be YOUR problem. Like wireing in your house, or possibly your modem <hilarie>
[05:19] <abhilash> sacarlson: It asks for password, i give it. It works from windows 7
[05:19] <vishal> in ubuntu mysql is not working
[05:19] <GeekyAdam> jack_: tried. still not working right.

[05:20] <vishal> this is the error m getting
[05:20] <GeekyAdam> here's a good question: with seperate x screens, is it possible to drag windows to other monitors? because i used to be able to do that.
[05:20] <cabbie-w7> jack_: i was able to grab an external cdrom and restore my problematic netbook to wipe and restore XP and am booted up into the ubuntu install page :)
[05:20] <jack_> Viru-N: /etc/environments
[05:20] <jack_> cabbie-w7: sweet. :)
[05:20] <maco> GeekyAdam: 2 displays for 1 screen:  yes.   2 screens? no, you can run totally separate gdm sessions on each
[05:20] <lushous> what do you think about Eclipse?
[05:20] <AbhijiT> lushous, veery heavy
[05:20] <vishal> can anybody help me regarding mysql
[05:20] <hilarie> @philip I refuse to accept that
[05:21] <lushous> shy
[05:21] <vishal> it is not getting connecting
[05:21] <jack_> GeekyAdam: seperate x screens almost looks like 2 seperate machiens running. they're instances of the xserver
[05:21] <lushous> i am sorry
[05:21] <lushous> why
[05:21] <GeekyAdam> maco: is twinview the only possible way to drag windows between windows?
[05:21] <jack_> GeekyAdam: twinview makes 2 monitors act as one viewing plane and you can drag windows bakc and forth
[05:21] <sacarlson> abhilash: well if it asks it must see the Access point why won't the dhcp respond?
[05:21] <vishal> can anybody help me regarding mysql,it is not getting connecting
[05:21] <jack_> vishal: is it started?
[05:22] <maco> GeekyAdam: for nvidia users? maybe... its not what i use as an intel user. i just setup two displays with "xrandr --auto"
[05:22] <cabbie-w7> jack_: last time i went through the default install which made the ubuntu partition about 18 gigs. id like to give it about 40, i clicked into 'advanced' on the screen but not sure how to change it. When I click 'new partition table' it says it will wipe all partitions and I'm pretty sure thats not what i want to do.
[05:22] <AbhijiT> vishal, http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?11,9689,56886

[05:22] <jack_> cabbie-w7: nah you dont want a new partition table. you want to edit the existing
[05:22] <jack12345> @jack_ : getting worse....now my update manager is broken...on hitting "check" button, it throws that error.
[05:22] <vishal> jack_:when I am entering password it is gving me error like ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[05:23] <jack_> jack12345: wat which error?
[05:23] <Viru-N> i wanted add one more path variable which is related to our project so where di put it?
[05:23] <Starminn> cabbie-w7: Use something like GParted ot just edit your current would probably be easier. Gparted can be ofund on the Ubuntu LiveCD and in the Software Centre.
[05:23] <GeekyAdam> jack_: i know that i guess. i just know for a fact that i used to be able to drag across all three screens, and each screen had its own wallpaper. when i set up twinview on two of themonitors the wallpaper stretches across both.
[05:23] <Viru-N> i wanted add one more path variable which is related to our project so where do i put it?
[05:23] <jack_> vishal: is the mysql-server service started?
[05:23] <GeekyAdam> maco: im unfamiliar with xrandr, what is it?
[05:23] <jack_> GeekyAdam: i think thats a bug
[05:23] <AbhijiT> vishal, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=312460
[05:23] <jack_> GeekyAdam: or a setting now
[05:23] <GeekyAdam> jack_: what do you mean? the wallpaper stretching?
[05:23] <maco> GeekyAdam: command line tool for dynamically configuring X.  nvidia's proprietary drivers don't support it though, iirc
[05:23] <jack_> GeekyAdam: yes
[05:24] <jack_> maco: i've used xrandr on my nvidia card (i think)
[05:24] <vishal> jack_:sh: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory , when i start service

[05:24] <cabbie-w7> Under the device heading, i see /dev/sda then /dev/sda1 (type ntfs) /dev/sda2 (type: fat32) then /dev/sda3. Which is the one to edit?
[05:24] <eyceberg> Jack: my local directory starts with /home/eyceberg/ it outputs after i do the scp command. it shows /home/eyceberg/ is a directory

[05:24] <jack_> maco: eeeeeeeeeeeh nvidia i think. i was fighitng with a boxee machine for a few weeks with svideo out
[05:25] <GeekyAdam> last time i tried installing non-proprietary nvidia drivers, xserver wouldnt start and i was booted to tty1 console. had to delete xorg.conf to get back to x.
[05:25] <jack_> maybe it was nouveau

[05:25] <cabbie-w7> Starminn: Im on a winxp device and installing ubuntu. GParted can be used from within ubuntu to expand the partition?

[05:27] <cabbie-w7> jack_: Starminn: guess i was a bit concerned since the native OS on this device is winXP and whether while in a ubuntu partition, i could use an ubuntu tool to take hard drive space away from XP. if that makes any sense
[05:27] <steve_asher> How do I customize the Unity application search shortcuts?
[05:27] <abhilash> sacarlson: jack_ : So what should i do with my dhcp or gateway to work with wireless?? I'm so frustrated, you guys are helping a lot:)
[05:27] <jack_> cabbie-w7: gparted is a tool that can be used in ubuntu
[05:27] <amagee> hey a while ago someone showed me how to add a "Host" section to ~/.ssh/config, so i can now go "ssh that_host" and automatically use those settings (IdentityFile etc).. can i use the same settings to copy files with scp?
[05:27] <cabbie-w7> jack_: alrighty, so do the normal install, grab gparted, then use that to expand space
[05:27] <GeekyAdam> maco: do you have multiple monitors?
[05:28] <jack_> abhilash: i think you're having driver issues with your card. if you are unable to connect at all. you could also try going into the settings and removing hte *saved* password and re-enteirng it manually when you try to connect
[05:28] <abhilash> I'd never had such a probelem with ubuntu from 2 years!! wireless......
[05:28] <vishal> Abhijit: M looking on that
[05:28] <jack_> cabbie-w7: i'd say make the changes befor ethe install.
[05:28] <sacarlson> abhilash: you need to get your connection working I assume,  since your dhcp server fails to respond I think it's encrytped and data not making it to the ap
[05:28] <jack_> cabbie-w7: you can use the livecd
[05:28] <maco> GeekyAdam: not right now. i used to hook up my laptop to a larger screen at work
[05:28] <amagee> ie, ssh my_host works, but when i say "scp myfile my_host", it thinks my_host is a filename
[05:28] <vishal> jack_: no it is not working
[05:28] <jack_> vishal: i am unsure. :( sorry
[05:28] <abhilash> jack_: where is the password settting?
[05:28] <GeekyAdam> anyone here using 3 monitors?
[05:28] <Starminn> cabbie-w7: You can but I'd suggest doing it from the LiveCD tha way the hard drive isn't being used (only the CD).
[05:28] <jack_> abhilash: eeeeh under network manager somewhere
[05:29] <sacarlson> abhilash: you might try the wicd  wifi manager, or wpagui
[05:29] <cabbie-w7> jack_: thats what i want to do but not sure how to proceed from the 'allocate drive space' screen
[05:29] <jack_> GeekyAdam: you want to take a look at my config?
[05:29] <GeekyAdam> jack_: yeah sure
[05:29] <jack_> cabbie-w7: are you in gparted?
[05:29] <abhilash> sacarlson: wpagui, i'll give it a shot....thanks
[05:30] <amagee> oh, never mind.. "scp my_host:" works
[05:30] <jack_> GeekyAdam: http://paste.ubuntu.com/565705/
[05:31] <cabbie-w7> jack_: no, im freshly booted off the thumb drive with ubuntu on it, but haven't installed ubuntu yet. It asks me to choose of 3 options: (install alongside other operating systems), (erase and use the entire disk), and (specify partitions manually). From this link it seems that if I want to customize the space of how much ubuntu gets under step 4: http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook/get-ubuntu/download I need to choose (specify partition
[05:31] <jack_> ok my girlfriend is choking me so i g2g. :D
[05:32] <cabbie-w7> lol have fun ;)
[05:32] <jack_> haha its a bad choking atm but maybe i can turn that around

[05:32] <cabbie-w7> getcha some!
[05:32]  * jack_ holds his now black eye. :(
[05:32] <AdrianDoyle> I just installed 10.10 via WUBI on my laptop (this machine), and am now experiencing trouble with my fan. It won't run at all, and it seems after running pwmconfig that I don't any pwm-capable sensor modules at all. I'm not in any current danger of overheating but I've got to keep an external fan pointed at this thing.
[05:32] <eyceberg> hmm i am having trouble downloading this file off a plain ssh ftp program. i used ip /var/www/mix/mix.rar /home/eyceberg/Documents/
[05:32] <eyceberg>  outputs no such directory?
[05:33] <jack_> eyceberg: it should look liek this 'scp <IP_ADDRESS>:/etc/hosts /home/jack/Documents'
[05:33] <AdrianDoyle> also note that I'm a total linux noob and will ask idiot questions.
[05:33] <jack_> eyceberg: or in your case 'scp ip:/var/www/mix/mix.rar /home/eyceberg/Documents/'
[05:34] <philip___> Anybody know how good Intel HD4500 graphics are in Ubuntu I may be getting a laptop with that graphics chip.

[05:35] <steve_asher> anyone know how to change the shortcuts that show up in unity search?
[05:35] <cabbie-w7> jack_: if your lovely lady can spare you for another minute, would you be able to speak to me previous concern:
[05:35] <eyceberg> or was that  a typo ?
[05:35] <cabbie-w7> jack_: no, im freshly booted off the thumb drive with ubuntu on it, but haven't installed ubuntu yet.

[05:35] <FloodBot3> cabbie-w7: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:36] <jack_> cabbie-w7: thats the install. you need to open the gparted utility. you'll need to be in the 'try ubuntu' mode
[05:36] <cabbie-w7> excellent. thank you.
[05:36] <hilarie_> Floodbots fighting?
[05:37] <steve_asher> ...like "Games".  I uninstalled all the games.  Now that shortcut is just taking up space.

[05:49] <cabbie-w7> i tried to grab chrome. but then firefox just closed the window.
[05:50] <philip___> Haha.
[05:50] <Starminn> cabbie-w7: Try grabbing Chromium from the Software Centre

[05:55] <cabbie-w7> g_0_0: terminal doesnt open >8(
[05:55] <g_0_0> ??
[05:55] <cabbie-w7> something is wrong here
[05:55] <cabbie-w7> i select it from applications, then right back to the home screen
[05:55] <g_0_0> cabbie-w7, try ctrl alt t - or alt f2 - then type gnome-terminal
[05:56] <cabbie-w7> neither commands respond
[05:57] <cabbie-w7> this is on a 'preview' version of ubuntu for netbooks fyi
[05:57] <GeekyAdam> a lot of times when i restart my machine, it just keeps rebooting after it gets to orange ubuntu boot screen. but if i hard boot it down then back up a couple times, it usually comes up ok.
[05:57] <g_0_0> cabbie-w7, ok - try it just for fun :)
[05:58] <cabbie-w7> well what i want to do is install ubuntu but give it more hard drive space. jack recommended going into the trial version then using gparted to expand it? im not sure how to get from A to B
[05:59] <g_0_0> cabbie-w7, could you not just have booted from a gparted livecd?
[06:00] <cabbie-w7> on a thumb drive
[06:00] <Starminn> cabbie-w7: Wait, wait, wait, so Ubuntu is not installed yet? (LiveCD = any portable media, basically)
[06:00] <cabbie-w7> i went from instructions from here: http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook/get-ubuntu/download
[06:00] <cabbie-w7> no its not
[06:00] <cabbie-w7> installed
[06:00] <FloodBot3> cabbie-w7: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:01] <winterweaver> I was working in the terminal just now, and the keyboard characters suddenly changed to some weird language? I cannot type any commands etc. How can I fix this? Im in the middle of important work, and cannot afford to close and reopen the terminal
[06:01] <cparker> Auto-mount CD/DVD drive to single, specific mount point every time? http://askubuntu.com/q/25759/2186
[06:01] <g_0_0> cabbie-w7, I am bit lost as to why you went for the trial version first?
[06:02] <EvilPhoenix> cparker:  is that even a question?
[06:03] <cabbie-w7> g_0_0: i originally dualbooted into ubuntu with the standard install, but it only gave it 18-ish gigs. i had to wipe my netbook, and want to give ubuntu around 40 gigs of space. IIRC jack said to go into the trial version then use gparted. My goal is to get ubuntu installed with 40 gigs to play with.
[06:05] <g_0_0> cabbie-w7,  you mean boot from a livecd ( on a thumbdrive) when you say trial version ?
[06:08] <eruditehermit> hey, how can I figure out of a filesystem is fat32 or fat16? df -T lists it as vfat
[06:09] <pc_> 1
[06:11] <Starminn> cabbie-w7: jack_ said that because him (and I as well) were under the assumption that you had it installed already. SO what you want to do is just install Ubuntu normally "alongside another operating system" (if one exists) and drag the slider to "40GB".
[06:11] <cabbie-w7> ok

[06:21] <AntOgg> I'm new to Linux and I'm currently using Ubuntu 10.04.  It's the only version I've used.  I love it, however, I would like to try other versions.  Does anyone have any opinions on which ones I should try.  It's for a personal computer.

[06:28] <Gaudi> will try and I'll tell you how it went
[06:28] <Starminn> AntOgg: Yep. I was going to list the common ones off the top of my head, but thought it may be frowned upon to 'advertise' other distros, perhaps. :) So that should give you a pretty all-inclusive list.

[06:36] <Irreducibilis> :(
[06:36] <Starminn> luxurymode: No, the "|" is called a "pipe". You could try searching what pipes do in the shell, perhaps. Like what MrMookie said, it's a continuation.
[06:36] <ray_> which was about my xbox 360 wireless receiver and the F1 fuse burning out.

[06:37] <Irreducibilis> How do package managers update things that are already running without disrupting anything?
[06:37] <luxurymode> so i guess pipe tells it to pipe the output from the previous command in the line into the next command
[06:38] <x43112609> ubuntu c'est trop la base pour commancer  avec un linux :)
[06:38] <MrMookie> correct luxury

[06:39] <nillerz> hey, I have a USB gamepad that isn't broadcasting the fact that it is a gamepad, but input-events is telling me that it is outputting a signal and does, in theory, work. How do I make x.org realize it is a gamepad? I am in xorg.conf now, I just don't know what to do here.
[06:39] <x43112609> yes
[06:39] <ActionParsnip> Irreducibilis: simple. The current running app is in RAM. The files can be changed freely as the data is copied. Until you restart the app to read the new data you won't see the updated app
[06:39] <x43112609> ok, i'm talk in english :)
[06:39] <luxurymode> MrMookie: i think im doing everything right, just getting eror that oacurl command not found. which is weird cuz ive been using it...
[06:40] <Irreducibilis> ActionParsnip, oh okay, that makes sense.

[06:41] <raisin123> anyone here?
[06:41] <raisin123> hello!
[06:41] <nillerz> ActionParsnip, no
[06:42] <raisin123> Does anyone know how to make ubuntu treat all the four workspaces as different desktops?
[06:42] <alesan> hi! how do I add a user to "wheel" or whatever it's called in ubuntu so that I can issue root commands with sudo?
[06:42] <ActionParsnip> Raisin123: you have see people converse since you joined so I'd say quite possibly yes
[06:43] <GeekyAdam> alesan: the user(s) need to be added to the sudoers file
[06:43] <alesan> GeekyAdam, thanks! where is such file please?
[06:43] <_jesse_> alesan: never heard of wheel, just run `visudo` from a terminal
[06:43] <ActionParsnip> Raisin123: in what se
[06:43] <raisin123> ActionParsnip_: alow internet. chat is coming in groups here. Didn't see any till I typed. Sorry though.
[06:43] <alesan> _jesse_, it's a concept used in freebsd or gentoo
[06:43] <ActionParsnip> Raisin123: sense do mean?
[06:43] <_jesse_> alesan: you shouldn't edit the file directly, use visudo
[06:44] <x43112609> all is possible, because you have sources :)
[06:44] <_jesse_> alesan: ah I see
[06:44] <GeekyAdam> alesan: /etc/sudoers
[06:44] <alesan> damn if I write visudo it opens "nano"
[06:44] <Guest44579> i'm having trouble getting anything to connect to my computer (ie. ssh sessions). My IP tables looks like this http://pastebin.com/VLUJxXhp (which may or may not be the cause of all this). any suggestions?
[06:44] <GeekyAdam> alesan: if you google "add user to sudoers file" you should have no problem
[06:44] <ActionParsnip> Alesan: nano rocks :)
[06:45] <alesan> well in the sudoers file it says... member of the admin group may gain root privileges
[06:45] <GeekyAdam> <- nano user
[06:45] <raisin123> ActionParsnip_: In the sense that I can customise all the workspaces differently
[06:45] <Irreducibilis> "Real programmers use nano"
[06:45] <_jesse_> alesan: it opens whatever the default editor is set to ;) it's an env variable
[06:45] <alesan> I know but it's called visudo, not nanosudo :)
[06:45] <_jesse_> alesan: haha to be honest, I felt the same way the first time I ran it
[06:46] <raisin123> ActionParsnip_: For example -  How to keep different wallpapers for all four workspaces.
[06:46] <_jesse_> alesan: anyway just copy the line for root and change 'root' to the other user
[06:46] <JoeyA> I picked btrfs when I installed Ubuntu 10.10, but I keep reading on the Internet that btrfs wasn't going to be in 10.10
[06:46] <JoeyA> In any case, it was a mistake.
[06:46] <_jesse_> alesan: if you want to let them run all sudo commands
[06:46] <x43112609> old programmers use vi :)
[06:46] <JoeyA> apt-get upgrade was taking a really long time while my disk galloped.
[06:47] <alesan> actually that does not seem the correct way
[06:47] <ActionParsnip> Raisin123: you can have different wallpaper on each cube side in Compiz if that's what you mean. This however means you will lose the ability to have desktop icons
[06:47] <alesan> I added my user to the admin group
[06:47] <Guest44579> i'm having trouble getting anything to connect to my computer (ie. ssh sessions). My IP tables looks like this http://pastebin.com/VLUJxXhp (which may or may not be the cause of all this). any suggestions?
[06:47] <JoeyA> so I aborted apt-get and hoped it would work when I restarted.  My system wouldn't start.
[06:47] <wiblewoble> xs1: have you tried the sound recorder and alsamixer for your sound levels
[06:47] <JoeyA> Not even recoverymode
[06:47] <_jesse_> alesan: aaah I see, sorry I've never done it that way
[06:47] <xs1> not the alsamixer
[06:48] <_jesse_> might be a new option
[06:48] <nillerz> So no help on how to add devices to xorg.conf?
[06:48] <alesan> thanks!
[06:48] <x43112609> or kmix for kubuntu ?
[06:48] <ActionParsnip> JoeyA: boot to root recovery mode and run: sudo apt-get -f install
[06:49] <JoeyA> ActionParsnip: Couldn't boot to recovery mode either.
[06:49] <JoeyA> I haven't gotten any scary output from dmesg
[06:49] <raisin123> ActionParsnip_: I didn't know how to do it from compiz. Hell I didn't know it was possible. I don't really care about the desktop icons. I have a dock for that. Could you please tell me how to do that using compiz?
[06:49] <soreau> nillerz: What device is not being auto-detected?
[06:50] <ActionParsnip> JoeyA: or boot to liveCD, chroot to the installed OS and run it there
[06:50] <alesan> bye!
[06:50] <JoeyA> I'll try that, thanks.
[06:50] <xs1> wiblewoble, not alsa
[06:50] <soreau> raisin123: To set a wallpaper for each viewport using gnome, disable Nautilus from drawing the desktop by setting the gconf key /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop to "false".
[06:51] <nillerz> a usb gamepad, do you want the lshal readout or lsusb or something?
[06:51] <wiblewoble> xs1: type alsamixer in a terminal try to turn up the vol
[06:51] <soreau> raisin123: Then you can use compiz wallpaper plugin in ccsm to set the images
[06:51] <ActionParsnip> Raisin123:it can be done and there are guides but I've never done it. It takes a bit of hacking but it's doable
[06:52] <soreau> ActionParsnip: It doesn't take any hacking
[06:52] <nillerz> http://pastebin.com/PfTxHAUi
[06:52] <soreau> Just disable show_desktop and set wallpapers in ccsm. Done
[06:53] <xs1> wiblewoble: master and pcm are both at 100
[06:53] <ActionParsnip> Soreau: i'd equate gconf-edit to registry editting in Windows as software should change it, not the user in my opinion
[06:54] <stanman246> hi, i'm trying to install ubuntu on a new hp 8100, but get stuck at automatic network configuration... If i cancel the install i get to the desktop and after manually configuring eth0 i have access to the network. I'm pretty sure the dhcp is working fine on the lan, but how can i check that?
[06:56] <ActionParsnip> stanman246: did you md5 test the iso you dow
[06:56] <ActionParsnip> Downloaded?
[06:56] <stanman246> ehm... nope
[06:57] <ActionParsnip> stanman246: then how did you know it was complete and error free
[06:57] <JoeyA> It'd be nice if hashes were visible in end-user interfaces.
[06:57] <ActionParsnip> !md5
[06:58] <JoeyA> e.g. Firefox's download menu should show the SHA256 hash under big links (or at least provide a way to get it that's easy).
[06:58] <era878> can anyone recommend a good incremental backup program?
[06:58] <sacarlson> stanman246: you can try sudo dhclient eth0  to see if that gets your dhcp setings
[06:58] <ActionParsnip> JoeyA: +1 the 1-2-3 app from pendrivelinux downloads, md5 tests a
[06:58] <x43112609> abakus or some...
[06:59] <x43112609> rsync....
[06:59] <ActionParsnip> And puts the image on usb in one app
[06:59] <stanman246> ActionParsnip, i don't.... never had any issue before.... but i just checked and it's the same as in the md5sums file
[07:00] <JoeyA> Is anyone here using btrfs with Ubuntu 10.10?
[07:00] <ActionParsnip> Good. Data corruption can and does occur. Please check in future
[07:01] <JoeyA> Amen to that.
[07:02] <sacarlson> era878: rync I guess and there are gui to add to it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incremental_backup
[07:02]  * GeekyAdam looks at all the quits...
[07:02] <era878> thnks
[07:02] <sacarlson> era878: sorry mispell rsync
[07:03] <almoxarife> era878: I use nsbackup , works for me
[07:03] <stanman246> hmm
[07:03] <x43112609> btrfs is a kinda file sytem
[07:03] <stanman246> no dhcpoffers received on eth0
[07:05] <ron__> what up
[07:06] <x43112609> doc
[07:07] <foxjazz> anyone install this on netbook?
[07:08] <bullgard>  /boot/grub/grub.cfg says: "Do not edit." How to accomplish that from the line "linux   /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-25-generic root=UUID=7b2db282-52a4-4a4b-b1db-032334575de7 ro   quiet splash" will be removed 'quiet' und 'splash'?
[07:09] <cagriemer> ID 12621262
[07:09] <Starminn> foxjazz: Install what on netbook? Ubuntu? There's Ubuntu netbook edition, specifically designed for Netbooks using the Unity interface as opposed to your typical GNOME (or KDE) environment.
[07:09] <x43112609> sudo or su root
[07:09] <foxjazz> Starminn: yes this is the second time I am trying to install. It's stuck
[07:09] <robertzaccour> do 64 bit drivers work in ndisgtk?
[07:10] <foxjazz> Starminn: I have a 2015PEM asus netbook
[07:10] <kwtm> Hi. What is the email client that is used in Ubuntu?  Is it Evolution?
[07:10] <bullgard> JoeyA: The word "use" has many meanings. What do you mean exactly?
[07:10] <xs1> Hi, I'm currently using maverick. I was messing around with ALSA while trying to make my mic detect sound, and now there is no sound from my speakers either
[07:10] <Starminn> kwtm: Yeah, Evolution is the default although I use Thunderbird.
[07:10] <bullgard> xs
[07:10] <JoeyA> Use as the root mountpoint ( / )
[07:11] <bullgard> !sond | xs1
[07:11] <bullgard> !sound | xs1
[07:11] <sacarlson> bullgard: I use the startup-manager to modify grub2 boot settings,  It's a gui for grub
[07:11] <Starminn> foxjazz: What sucks about it?
[07:11] <x43112609> drole... i have asus 900 sdd
[07:12] <xs1> bulgard, went through it. I think all I have to do is reset alsa to default. I'm just not clear how to do that
[07:13] <wiblewoble> xs1: what did you do ?
[07:13] <whatsup> Hello, how do i get into grub menu if ESC key isn't working? Somebody broke sth in grub and i need to fix it. however when slamming esc key - i dont get in
[07:13] <kwtm> Starminn: Thanks for info.  Tried Thunderbird --ran up against an error that is apparently documented and not fixed (can't remember exact message --"SSL record too long" or something") that renders it utterly useless.  WIll try Evolution.
[07:13] <whatsup> Any ideas, thanks?
[07:13] <Starminn> kwtm
[07:14] <foxjazz> Starminn: I didn't say suck, I said stuck (hangs
[07:14] <xs1> wiblewoble: i followed this until the ./configure near the end. It said command not found. I rebooted after that
[07:14] <xs1> http://duopetalflower.blogspot.com/2011/02/alsa-1024-in-ubuntu-1010.html
[07:14] <Starminn> kwtm: Alright. I've not tried Evolution to be honest as I used Thunderbird before I switched to Linux as well, so I can't say good or bad about it. See how it goes. *shrug* best of luck.
[07:15] <era878> does anybody know any good wine configurations to get office 2007 running optimally
[07:15] <x43112609> why do not use directly the openofice... without wine
[07:16] <Starminn> foxjazz: Ah, my mistake. :D Not sure what would do it, though.
[07:16] <whatsup> And yes btw thats 8.04
[07:16] <whatsup> (old, i know, but i must not upgrade it -.-)
[07:16] <era878> because openoffice doesnt have perfect compatibility with word docs and vise versa
[07:16] <bullgard> sacarlson: Ah! I did not know that there is a package »startupmanager«. I am hurrying to install it. --  Thank you.
[07:17] <era878> has anyone gotten burg manager to work?
[07:17] <whatsup> So i am retrying.. brb
[07:18] <bullgard> era878: "burg"? Is this a typo?
[07:18] <era878> no
[07:18] <era878> its a graphical boot manager for grub2
[07:18] <era878> i cant get it to work though
[07:18] <bullgard> era878: I did not know.
[07:18] <x43112609> no need graphical for that... use vi or nano
[07:19] <Starminn> era878: For Office 2007 by the way you could try WINE. I hear it mostly works with a bit of tinkering
[07:19] <wiblewoble> xs1: so you did not complete the install?
[07:19] <era878> what vi and/or nano??
[07:19] <xs1> wiblewoble: no
[07:21] <wiblewoble> xs1: why ?  you stoped alsa to install that version thats why theres no sound. so you rebooted have you got sounnd?
[07:21] <snap> hi
[07:22] <era878> Does anybody have a working media sharing setup to stream to a local xbox 360?

[07:23] <snap> i have a problem whit installation of ubuntu server, when i try to modify the some file type /etc/fstab , i get the message filesystem read-only, if i try the command remount filesystem tell me filesystem is write-protected
[07:23] <snap> :(
[07:23] <wiblewoble> xs1: which command did you get stuck on?
[07:24] <xs1> ./configure , 3 steps before reboot
[07:24] <xs1> near the end
[07:27] <snap> i have a problem whit installation of ubuntu server, when i try to modify the some file type /etc/fstab , i get the message filesystem read-only, if i try the command remount filesystem tell me filesystem is write-protected
[07:27] <xs1> wiblewoble: I think I reinstalled it. I tried reinstalling the ALSA drivers from a fresh kernal. I'll come back and let you know. Thanks a lot for the help.
[07:28] <Da|Mummy> anyone know how to get audacious to figure out the artists and title and all other info of physical cds?
[07:29] <era878> snap you can not remount a filesystem that your running

[07:31] <snap> i must try whit live??
[07:31] <linuxius> hi! I like so start #!/bin/sh

[07:31] <linuxius> and then firefox localhost... how can I do that?
[07:31] <era878> change the read/write permission for the files you are trying to modify you must be root to change permission on most things in the /etc folder
[07:32] <snap> era878: if i try whit user root i get filesystem read-only
[07:33] <pvh_sa> hey there, i'm trying to connect to a Google Talk account with Empathy and it just comes back immediately saying "network error" - my net however is working fine. any ideas??
[07:33] <stanman246> well... i found out my prob, it was the (windows) dhcp server, i soo love linux...
[07:33] <era878> did you use sudo?
[07:33] <grendal_prime> werid there is no #ssh
[07:33] <Dan_> what is the command to view all of your running processes
[07:33] <snap> era878: if have tryied also sudo
[07:34] <grendal_prime> how difficult is it to sneek back through an establised ssh connection?
[07:34] <snap> era878: if have tried also sudo
[07:34] <stanman246> grendal_prime, try #openssh
[07:34] <grendal_prime> like say someone is sshed into my server.  Is it possible for me to ustilize that same tunnel to get to there machine?
[07:34] <GrimmVarg> hey guys!  Wouldn't bother.
[07:37] <raghavneon> hi can anyone help me with mooshak installation
[07:38] <stanman246> i've got an intel i5 machine, which supports kvm. would like to use it, but it's all new to me. Could i just install Ubu-desktop on it and then install and use kvm? anyone did this be4?
[07:38] <foofooey> just the deep southside
[07:38] <foofooey> everywhere else is pretty good
[07:38] <foofooey> i been to detroit its a diff story there jeez
[07:38] <snap> era878: in phase of installation, i haven't configured the eth and then he did not install all packages
[07:39] <foofooey> i bet the canadians just laugh at us when they cross the bridge over to the US, just to see burnt our buildings with windows broken, tall buildings with nowindows and graffiti all over once you cross over
[07:40] <Da|Mummy> i bet the mexicans the feel the same way
[07:41] <elfranne> rename m4v mp4 *.m4v
[07:41] <elfranne> Bareword "m4v" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at (eval 1) line 1.
[07:41] <foofooey> yea tons of mexicans there its weird
[07:41] <elfranne> any idea why i got that error ?
[07:41] <Da|Mummy> detroit is full of asian people
[07:41] <Laibsch> I upgrade my vserver from hardy to lucid the other. upstart ran into a problem that I worked around, but now upstart does not seem to be running and I can't figure out how to restart it: http://paste.debian.net/107278/  Any ideas?
[07:41] <Da|Mummy> at least the airport is
[07:41] <foofooey> no way
[07:41] <foofooey> u srs
[07:41] <kwtm> elfranne: Are you trying to rename a file?  SHould you be using the "mv" command instead of "rename"?
[07:41] <Dan_> this may be off the topic but what is a good newsreader
[07:41] <Da|Mummy> i swear, 1 in 3 people at detroit airport was asian
[07:41] <foofooey> i know theres a growing muslim community now
[07:42] <foofooey> i bet the airport area is nice then]
[07:42] <Da|Mummy> i thought muslims were buying new york, not detroit
[07:42] <foofooey> muslims everywhere
[07:42] <kwtm> elfranne: If you are using "rename", then instead of "m4v" you should be using a Perl-compatible substitute command (ie. /regex1/regex2/) or something.
[07:42] <YankDownUnder> Detroit, when I finally left in 92, was frightening enough. My mother went back last year for a school reunion - she WON'T be going back - ever again.
[07:42] <foofooey> YankDownUnder,  which side
[07:43] <greppy> elfranne: what are you trying to do?
[07:43] <Da|Mummy> theres a good side to detroit?
[07:43] <YankDownUnder> foofooey, East side.
[07:43] <kwtm> elfranne: What are you trying to do, specifically?  Rename all files ending in m4v to end in mp4?
[07:43] <Da|Mummy> anyone know how to get audacious to figure out the artists and title and all other info of physical cds?
[07:43] <foofooey> i see, yea its no fun being the only whitey in hs
[07:43] <YankDownUnder> foofooey, Just off Gratiot.
[07:44] <YankDownUnder> foofooey, I went to school in DOWNTOWN...long ago when my school was right next to City Airport.
[07:44] <greppy> !ot YankDownUnder foofooey
[07:44] <greppy> !ot | YankDownUnder foofooey
[07:44] <grendal_prime>  my question is.. if i connect to an ssh server how difficult is it for the admin of that server to use that same tunnel i a reverse fashion?
[07:44] <YankDownUnder> Nazi strike.
[07:44] <grendal_prime> YankDownUnder, ?
[07:45] <grendal_prime> dude thats a funny phrase
[07:45] <foofooey> last comment - detroitians are a bunch of anarchists, and burn their own city, bleh
[07:45] <Da|Mummy> detroit smells
[07:45] <foofooey> especially the amigos doing it now
[07:45] <greppy> grendal_prime: are you opening a tunnel, or just connecting to the server to get a shell?
[07:45] <era878> snap you could always boot from a live cd and change the fstab from there
[07:45] <elfranne> kwtm abd greppy : got hte solution rename 's/\.m4v/\.mp4/' *.m4v
[07:46] <grendal_prime> greppy, well in the case im worried about i will be sending a crapload of files.
[07:46] <grendal_prime> to a server
[07:46]  * whatsup[damnNS] back with negative results
[07:46] <michel> anyone here used PinguyOS ?
[07:46] <kwtm> grendal_prime: you mean you want to, or you want to try to prevent?  When I provide tech support for my relatives, they ssh into my server and open a tunnel (as I request); then I can ssh into their desktop via that tunnel and open my own tunnel.  But I can't unless they open a tunnel to me first.
[07:46] <greppy> grendal_prime: unless you open a tunnel, you don't need to worry about someone connecting back to your machine over your ssh connection.
[07:47] <kwtm> grendal_prime: If the desktop just does "ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900" or something like that, there is no reverse tunnel for the server admin to "sneak" back into your computer, if that's what you're asking.
[07:48] <grendal_prime> kwtm,  well i have a client that wants me to dump serveral files onto a file server they have behind an ssh server.   so for the most part im going to rsync via ssh to there server,  so i would be the client.
[07:48] <greppy> grendal_prime: that should be fine.
[07:48] <grendal_prime> i want to prevent them from being able to get into my machine.
[07:49] <kwtm> grendal_prime: Sorry, I still don't have the info I need to answer your question. Do you (client) want to prevent the server admin from tunnelling back into your client?  Or you want to facilitate the tunnel?
[07:49] <kwtm> grendal_prime: Ah, I see.  THey won't get into your machine if you tunnel into theirs.
[07:49] <grendal_prime> ok cool
[07:50] <grendal_prime> so ya im tunneling into there server, dropping some files, and then shutting down the connection
[07:50] <grendal_prime> 60 second later doing it again with a new ssh connection.
[07:50] <greppy> grendal_prime: you're not really tunneling if you are copying files using ssh+rsync.
[07:50] <whatsup[damnNS]> Anyone interested to help? :\
[07:51] <grendal_prime> right.  because the true def of tunnel is two way.  but you get what im saying ..im encrypting the data via ssh.
[07:51] <x_> WAWA
[07:51] <greppy> !ask | whatsup[damnNS]
[07:51] <foofooey> i would but i dont have any exp with a xboxtu
[07:51] <whatsup[damnNS]> IBM Intellistation E Pro + grub 1.50 = no sc key working. i'm suspecting G*DDAMN legacy mode
[07:51] <whatsup[damnNS]> greppy: i asked, but nobody replied last time
[07:52] <whatsup[damnNS]> "DamnNS" stands for damn nickserv
[07:52] <grendal_prime> ya damn it
[07:53] <x_> vazaaaap
[07:53] <wiblewoble> kwtm: greppy: what about X forwarding is that secure? i.e no back tunneling.
[07:53] <whatsup[damnNS]> x_: upper floor
[07:53] <whatsup[damnNS]> sorry, couldn't resist :P
[07:53] <kwtm> wiblewoble: u think so
[07:53] <whatsup[damnNS]> oh hes gone. whoops
[07:53] <kwtm> wiblewoble: i think so
[07:54] <greppy> wiblewoble: there is the potential for someone to be able to do something nefarious over an X11 tunnel back to your workstation.
[07:54] <foofooey> why not use grub2, i tried burg the other day and it looks great and easy to add iso's to boot.
[07:54] <greppy> wiblewoble: that said, they would need root access to be able to do it.
[07:55] <whatsup[damnNS]> Shall i explain situation the wider angled? Sysadmin said "Fix this" and left. And if i wanna reset Bios i need keys to open that box. which are, of course, by Murphy, with sysadmin. Em.... About 80km away from here
[07:55] <wiblewoble> kwtm: greppy: i see thanks!
[07:55] <whatsup[damnNS]> so i cant open this intellistation e pro, cant reset bios, cant get into d@mn Grub... what else
[07:55] <grendal_prime> greppy...ya i always love these exploits i see pop up for nix systems that sound terrible and then like at the end of the exploit desc there is a note..."attacker will need root access to the box"
[07:55] <grendal_prime> its like...
[07:55] <grendal_prime> why did someone go through all the trouble to write it up?
[07:56] <foofooey> whatsup[damnNS],  you cant boot up a  cd?
[07:56] <whatsup[damnNS]> grendal_prime: because there STILL are stupid peepz running unknown scripts with sudo
[07:56] <greppy> grendal_prime: because there have been escalation exploits in other applications where a normal user could get root.
[07:56] <whatsup[damnNS]> foofooey: dont have one here :@
[07:56] <whatsup[damnNS]> give me 30secs, brb
[07:57] <whatsup[damnNS]> back
[07:58] <grendal_prime> sooo like a cron job that runs as root?  and some script that has sudo access to cron that also reads some config file that is world writeable?
[07:58] <whatsup[damnNS]> foofooey: if i had damn CD, i could already do it... But now i think theres no other way than with bios reset, so that Legacy mode goes boom, right?
[07:58] <grendal_prime> that sort of thing?
[07:59] <foofooey> where does it get stuck at
[07:59] <grendal_prime> but jesushchrist...we are supposed to safegarde from such crazyness?
[08:00] <whatsup[damnNS]> foofooey: i boot my computer. option a: i press f1 and i get into boot, nothing works (no keys reactions). or B) i continue boot and i get pass GRUB 1.5 dialogue (even if i slam ESC key) into login window (where all keys work)...
[08:03] <foofooey> im not really sure whats the prob tho if its booting into *untu
[08:03] <whatsup[damnNS]> foofooey: I need grub menu, thats it :\
[08:03] <whatsup[damnNS]> its booting wrong one. *nods*

[08:16] <whatsup[damnNS]> richardjapenga: no problem
[08:16] <whatsup[damnNS]> but dont really know if it works ok then
[08:16] <whatsup[damnNS]> so google first :)

[08:26] <Starminn> linux4help: this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1555107 ?
[08:26] <doorntje> Then the server doesn't respond...
[08:26] <EvilPhoenix> doorntje:  did he configure the server software?
[08:27] <EvilPhoenix> doorntje:  and how is he trying to access the server?
[08:27] <doorntje> EvilPhoenix: He didn't install the server jet, he wants to
[08:27] <EvilPhoenix> uh...
[08:27] <whatsup[fakofNS]> Woot, stuff is opened, but i'll reset bios when there's not that much crowd
[08:27] <EvilPhoenix> doorntje:  the fact the server isnt on explains a lot :P
[08:27] <whatsup[fakofNS]> it wasn't locked, i was opening it wrong way >.<
[08:28] <doorntje> EvilPhoenix: The server is turned on when he tries to install ;)
[08:28] <EvilPhoenix> doorntje:  if they want web access, they need to install an HTTP daemon like apache.  If they want SSH, they need to install openssh (which should be installed by the installer).
[08:28] <lithpr> Hi, I have both KDE and GNOME desktop environments installed on Ubuntu 10.10. When I add the entry OnlyShowIn=GNOME; in a .desktop file, the application doesn't appear in the KDE menu.
[08:28] <lithpr> However, when I add OnlyShowIn=KDE; the file still appears in the GNOME menu. Does anyone know why this isn't working? Does anyone have a workaround?
[08:28] <EvilPhoenix> doorntje:  otherwise there should be no reason for a timeout if he's at the machine itself after installation
[08:28] <linux4help> Possibly Starminn, thanks =D
[08:29] <whatsup[fakofNS]> What would happen if i drag bios battery out NOW? :P
[08:29] <EvilPhoenix> doorntje:  so if he hasnt installed the server software yet, then that explains why there;s timeouts: there's nothing listening
[08:29] <Slartibart> I can use swedish characters in gnome-terminal, but if I run php -a, i.e. interactive commandline php, inside that gnome-terminal php still won't show the swedish characters. Anyone knows how to solve?
[08:29] <Starminn> linux4help: I saw people mention Pithos in a few different places. See how that goes. I hope it works for you. :)
[08:29] <doorntje> EvilPhoenix: The installation wasn't started, he only said it had to
[08:29] <linux4help> I did a dumb thing, i installed macbuntu to see what it would feel like and i can't uninstall it.
[08:30] <laowang> hello
[08:30] <EvilPhoenix> doorntje:  then the timeout part is because it might be trying to find updates...?
[08:30] <laowang> ubuntu is very good system
[08:30] <EvilPhoenix> doorntje:  server support is in #ubuntu-server, they know the server version better than this channel, but most of the people in -server are in here too

[08:34] <snap> no there only gnome-desktop-data gnome-desktop-enviroment and gnome-desktop-sharp2
[08:35] <Ve2> No idea then. ubuntu-desktop is what the desktop edition uses. :/
[08:35] <whatsup[fakofNS]> snap: there means you already have gnome-desktop installed, no?  I tried adding fonts to windir/fonts, but it had no effect

[08:47] <bullgard> [Banshee 1.8.0] Why is /usr/bin/banshee a softlink to banshee-1?
[08:48] <palhmbs> where does ubuntu-software-center get it's deb files from if it has been opened by a download in a browser?
[08:49] <bullgard> palhmbs: From the Ubuntu repositories in the WWW.
[08:49] <palhmbs> nope -- it's trying to install wingIDE....

[08:54] <jlenormand> I'm running make through emacs

[08:54] <jlenormand> how can I fix this?
[08:56] <brokendatapoint> hi y'all, i have two working 10.10 Netbooks on an Acer Aspire and a HP Mini, both have functional Wireless but the cmd "sudo ifconfig -a" produces slightly different results. On the Acer, I get eth0, lo, wlan0. On the HP I get eth0, eth1, lo ... what is the go?
[08:57] <brokendatapoint> bwt "cat /etc/network/interfaces" on both outputs exactly the same result
[08:57] <ActionParsnip> brokendatapoint: its how the drivers/udev pickup the devices. You can mess with the OS to change it. afaik, network manager expects wlan0 but wicd is more flexible and allows you to specify the wireless interface name
[08:58] <brokendatapoint> ActionParsnip: so the different hardware (Acer/HP) makes this difference? as far as i can tell, both netbooks are running almost exactly the same motherboard/cpu
[08:59] <tonysan> Why my .bashrc only works while I am root?
[08:59] <ActionParsnip> brokendatapoint: the interfaces file will always output the same thing as interfaces will only define the loopback device, the rest is managed (by default) by network manager
[08:59] <ActionParsnip> brokendatapoint: the board and cpu are moot, its the wireless hardware which makes the difference, and the driver running it, thereof
[09:00] <brokendatapoint> ActionParsnip: re /etc/network/interfaces => OK, ah the Acer runs an Atheros and the HP an Intel (I think)
[09:00] <ActionParsnip> TonyBurn: in your users home folder run:  sudo chown $USER:$USER /home/$USER/.bashrc
[09:00] <ActionParsnip> brokendatapoint: that's the difference then ;)
[09:00] <brokendatapoint> ActionParsnip: thank you
[09:01] <prakash> wt is meaning of |=? is it assignment operator
[09:01] <ActionParsnip> brokendatapoint: no worries dude
[09:01] <ActionParsnip> prakash: | is a pipe to pipe the output of one command to another
[09:01] <brokendatapoint> ActionParsnip: interesting nick btw ... parsnip hahaha
[09:02] <prakash> Thank you
[09:03] <Shaan7> hey guys, my cousin uses ubuntu, but he is unable to use invisible mode either with pidgin or empathy.pidgin sets mode as invisible, but his chat list goes away. empathy sets busy instead of invisible. What can he use so that he can be invisible (except gmail) ?
[09:04] <jlenormand> how do I export everything in my current environment?
[09:04] <ActionParsnip> brokendatapoint: its a harry hill joke :)
[09:04] <ActionParsnip> jlenormand: how do you mean "environment"?
[09:04] <jlenormand> when I type env
[09:04] <jlenormand> and set
[09:06] <ActionParsnip> jlenormand: most of that stuff is set in ~/.bashrc
[09:09] <simion314> hi,on 64bit, i recived an updatenotification to update flash-installer, i made the update and now flash is not working, any idea what happen? my browser can't see the plugin.i tried opera and rekonq
[09:10] <ActionParsnip> jlenormand: you can always export it to a text file with:  env > ~/Desktop/stuff.txt  then add the word export to the start of lines, so won't be needed but bashrc deals with most stuff
[09:11] <Ve2> simion314, no idea. Downgrade the package?
[09:11] <ActionParsnip> simion314: can you use http://pastie.org and give the output of:  uname -a; lsb_release -a; echo; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf        thanks
[09:12] <dagon666> do You guys know any good ftp/http downloader with web interface which I could install on my server ?
[09:12] <ActionParsnip> dagon666: like a http based fileserver
[09:12] <dagon666> no
[09:13] <dagon666> I expect some sort of www interface for wget
[09:13] <dagon666> or similar
[09:13] <brokendatapoint> what is *the* definitive method to identify whether a package is available in the Ubuntu repos?
[09:14] <ActionParsnip> dagon666: most web browsers already do this
[09:14] <simion314> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/2wxCsVDz   and thx
[09:14] <ActionParsnip> brokendatapoint: there is no one way, you can use:  apt-cache policy packagename
[09:14] <dagon666> ActionParsnip: thats not the point. I need a tool able to schedule download task, provide a view of download progress etc.
[09:14] <brokendatapoint> ActionParsnip: k
[09:15] <ActionParsnip> simion314: sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-installer flashplugin-nonfree; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree     then close all browsers and re-open should be ok
[09:15] <dagon666> ActionParsnip: and it should download to my server, not the client which I use to connect
[09:16] <Viper51732> hello
[09:16] <qrq> Hi
[09:16] <ActionParsnip> dagon666: i see what you mean, let me hunt
[09:17] <qrq> dagon :D
[09:17] <qrq> What a nick
[09:17] <dagon666> qrq: may say the same about yours
[09:18] <qrq> lol
[09:18] <qrq> dagon Del Toro is making "In The Mountains of Madness"
[09:19] <Ve2> ...
[09:19] <Ve2> That is kind of awesome.
[09:19] <simion314> ActionParsnip: thx, it worked
[09:19] <brokendatapoint> is LibreOffice available via apt-get or must I get the Linux Installer?
[09:19] <qrq> Ve2 What exaclty?
[09:19] <Ve2> qrq, do you know when it is due to come out?
[09:20] <Ve2> Del Toro making Mountain of Madness. :/
[09:20] <prakash> result |= (1 << (letter_to_index(drives[i].letter))); what is happening by this statement?
[09:21] <ultrafluffy> How do I permanently change my DNS on all wireless networks I may connect to, to <IP_ADDRESS>?
[09:21] <DJones> brokendatapoint: Have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibreOffice That lists a PPA so you can add a repository
[09:21] <brokendatapoint> DJones: thank you, reading
[09:22] <dagon666> prakash: one is rotated x times, where x = drives[i].letter, the result, for examle 00100000 is ORed with the "result"
[09:22] <Ve2> ultrafluffy, you can go into /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0
[09:22] <Ve2> and add a line that says DNS1=<IP_ADDRESS>
[09:22] <Ve2> :/
[09:22] <Ve2> That will set the default for your wireless adapter.
[09:22] <qrq> Ve2 Did you get link?
[09:22] <Ve2> Do you want it to ONLY use that?
[09:23] <Ve2> Yes, ta.
[09:23] <qrq> Thank god he signed off from making The Hobbit
[09:23] <novel_> Howto get fade to (real) transparency with reflexion (ImageMagick) ?
[09:23] <ultrafluffy> ok
[09:23] <Ve2> True that.
[09:23] <Ve2> Best left in Jacksons hands.
[09:23] <qrq> Because LOTR movies were awful
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> dagon666: jdownloader has a web interface http://www.linoob.com/2010/08/best-ubuntu-download-managers-reviewed/
[09:24] <Ve2> Eh.
[09:24] <Ve2> LOTR is awful IMHO.
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> ultrafluffy: you can define dns in network manager
[09:24] <dagon666> ActionParsnip: yeah, I considered it, but you know ... its Java :(
[09:24] <qrq> Ve2 Well if the story would be about orks then it would be better :D
[09:24] <ultrafluffy> ActionParsnip, It only seems to want to do it for each network individually -- I'd prefer if it were automatic for every new WLAN I connect to
[09:25] <dagon666> ActionParsnip: I'll take it if there is nothing else better
[09:25] <Ve2> Actually, if Del Toro did The Hobbit from the perspective of the dragon
[09:25] <Ve2> I would watch that, for sure. :D
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> dagon666: whats wrong with java?
[09:26] <brokendatapoint> DJones: just removed Open Office, added the libreoffice/ppa, update, install libreoffice => generates a monster package install list, still.
[09:26] <qrq> Ve2 I like when bad characters are main heroes :D
[09:26] <frostero> anyone know anything about ofbiz
[09:26] <frostero> ?
[09:27] <Ve2> Poor dragon gets all his treasure stolen, everyone crys at the end.
[09:27] <DJones> brokendatapoint: I guess it will, its probably a 200MB+ download, so must be a big list of packages
[09:27] <Ve2> Evil midgets messing with him
[09:27] <greppy> !ot | Ve2
[09:27] <qrq> brb
[09:27] <brokendatapoint> Ve2: wtf?

[09:45] <th_> andy-at-home, you own stocks?
[09:45] <deuterium> kshallid: i meant from within ubuntu.. i remember there were tools called "stow" or "alien"?
[09:45] <Ve2> alien turns rpm
[09:45] <Ve2> s  into deb
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> andy-at-home: use the connect to server in nautilus. bear in mind this: http://thelinuxexperiment.com/linux/accessing-windows-7-shares-from-ubuntu-is-a-pain/
[09:46] <Ve2> Not sure about stow
[09:46] <deuterium> Ve2: k, thx
[09:46] <andy-at-home> thanks
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> andy-at-home: i suggest you read it if you use live messenger
[09:47] <kshallid> deuterium: oh sorry my reaction if offtopic, alien is tool for rebuild package
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> andy-at-home: it messes with samba and win7's revised samba which causes grief, its a pain, and microsoft's fault
[09:47] <andy-at-home> doesnt surprise me
[09:47] <deuterium> kshallid: ok, np
[09:48]  * ActionParsnip nods
[09:48] <rigved> deuterium: it is recommended that you do not use alien. most of the times it will not be able to create the right package. instead use debian packages
[09:48] <andy-at-home> if other folk are having trouble i think i ll just move the files online
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> andy-at-home: its fixable, the doc shows how
[09:49] <satya> after installation and configuration openssl, if connect to the applications from browser it says 500 internal error
[09:49] <andy-at-home> ill give it a read, thanks
[09:49] <deuterium> rigved: thing is, i might need to use eclipse, but the version of eclipse ubuntu ships with is pretty old and seems rather buggy. so i thought i'd better try the most current version downloadable from the eclipse site which comes as a .tar.gz
[09:50] <satya> after installation and configuration openssl, if connect to the applications from browser it says 500 internal error
[09:50] <Ve2> compile it from source, deuterium?
[09:50] <sacarlson>  satya: so you seting up an https:// site now?
[09:51] <satya> yes sacarlson
[09:51] <deuterium> Ve2: sounds adventureous and time-consuming ;)
[09:51] <Ve2> Nope.
[09:51] <sacarlson> satya: what instructions have you followed so far?
[09:51] <Ve2> It's like three commands. :/
[09:51] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | deuterium
[09:51] <Ve2> Also that.
[09:52] <rethus> how can i remove samba from initctl?
[09:52] <deuterium> ActionParsnip: thx for the hint, will check
[09:52] <rigved> deuterium: so, when you untar it, it comes as a .rpm package?
[09:52] <satya> i just configured it from the blog of joe fallen
[09:52] <whatsup[fakofNS]> I got out batt for 1 min or such and i resetted bios. grub works now w/o prob.
[09:52] <satya> i just configured it from the blog of joe fallen instructions

[09:52] <rethus> now its start on every starup
[09:53] <rethus> is there a command to remove it, or have i to delete the links in init.d manualy
[09:53] <Ve2> You want to stop smb from starting at startup?
[09:53] <Ve2> "chkconfig smb off"
[09:53] <sacarlson> satya: could you show us this link joe fallen?
[09:54] <satya> kk
[09:54] <deuterium> rigved: hm.. the tgz basically just seems to contain a whole folder structure for eclipse.. so i might not even need to convert anything, perhaps just place it in /opt/
[09:54] <rethus> Ve2: thanks
[09:54] <satya> this is site  http://blog.joefallon.net/2010/08/configure-tls-and-ssl-in-ubuntu-10-04-lts/]
[09:54] <Ve2> deuterium, if you're not sure, look for a PPA for eclipse
[09:54] <Ve2> it will make it a lot easier.
[09:55] <rigved> deuterium: ok. i remember now. it's just a folder. you need to place it in your home folder. then just run a file in that folder and it will start eclipse
[09:56] <rigved> deuterium: no need to place it in /opt
[09:56] <deuterium> rigved: yes, sounds pretty straight-forward, actually :)
[09:56] <twirm> howdy
[09:56] <rigved> deuterium: :) all the best
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> deuterium: finding a ppa with a newer version is much cleaner ;)
[09:56] <rethus> Ve2: realy strange. if i enter this command i got "smb unknown service".
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> rethus: it's smbd
[09:57] <rethus> but if i do pas aus, i see:
[09:57] <Ve2> Pardon me.
[09:57] <rethus> ahh, ok
[09:57] <deuterium> rigved: thx ;)
[09:57] <rethus> that works :D
[09:57] <sacarlson> satya: ok I going to read yours this is the one I had been reading http://library.linode.com/web-servers/apache/ssl-guides/using-ssl-ubuntu-10.10-maverick
[09:57] <rigved> deuterium: np. your are welcome
[09:57] <rethus> ActionParsnip: is winbind and the other smb-services with disabling smbd also off?
[09:58] <deuterium> ActionParsnip: will try https://launchpad.net/~eclipse-team/+archive/debian-package if using the .tar.gz from the home folder fails.
[09:58] <satya> sacarlson: thank you
[10:00] <sacarlson> satya: ok I don't see anything badly wrong with that, so did you check sudo netstat -pant  to see if you have apache2 listen on port 443?
[10:01] <satya> sacarlson: no
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> deuterium: looks good, it has a maverick repo :)
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> rethus: not sure there, would make sense
[10:03] <deuterium> ActionParsnip: what's a maverick repo?
[10:03] <sacarlson> satya: did you check the /var/log/apache  log files to see any more detail about error 500?
[10:04] <satya> yeah, i saw it. but no more information for that error
[10:05] <sacarlson> satya: no errors seen at all?  and port 443 is ok?
[10:05] <kwtm> I asked this question earlier tonight but got cut off before I could check for responses (sorry): when a GNOME program like Evolution stores my password to log on to get email, in what file is the password stored?  Is it a ~/.config-for-all-gnome/  directory, or is it more a ~/.just_for_evolution  directory?
[10:06] <ActionParsnip> deuterium: the repo only supports maverick, so if you don't use maverick it is of no use to you#
[10:06] <sacarlson> satya: you will find the more info you give us the better and quicker we can help you,  try to pastebin more of the info requested
[10:06] <d-devil> hello how to connect to free wifi from console ?
[10:06] <asraniel> hi, there has been a adobe flash upgrade to 10.2, now firefox and chrome cannot use youtube anymore. any workaround known?
[10:06] <ActionParsnip> d-devil: you can use wicd in cli, or iwconfig
[10:06] <d-devil> ubuntu 10.10 server
[10:07] <d-devil> iwconfig
[10:07] <satya> sacarlson: kk.
[10:07] <ActionParsnip> asraniel: symlink the plugin into /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins
[10:07] <ActionParsnip> d-devil: wicd provides wicd-curses which gives a text/curses based gui to wifi
[10:07] <kwtm> d-devil: I am more familiar with iwconfig, but be aware that if you literally mean "Free Wifi", sometimes Windows laptops may offer to let you connect to them (their SSID is "Free Wifi") but it doesn't mean you'll be connected to the Internet at large, just to that one laptop.
[10:08] <satya> sacarlson: actually i disabled it from my server. thats why i couldnt able to post much. sorry for that
[10:08] <ActionParsnip> d-devil: like links2 is to X based web browsers
[10:08] <brokendatapoint> on Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook, what is the correct term for the default menu on the left that has Firefox, Cheese Webcam etc in it?
[10:08] <roccity_> kwtm, I believe that it is the gnome-keyring
[10:08] <sacarlson> satya: disabled what?  pastebinit?
[10:09] <satya> i purge the openssl. and removed from my server.
[10:09] <kwtm> roccity_: I see.  Is it encrypted?  Or can any casual user on my laptop just "cat /path/to/gnome-keyring" and be able to read my password?
[10:09] <skorv> by changing the nm-system-settings.conf one can make a nic unmanaged by network-monitor but the nic still shows as device not managed... can you hide that?
[10:09] <kwtm> roccity_: I'm switching over to Evolution from Kmail.
[10:10] <ljsoftnet> brokendatapoint i think its a addon on firefox
[10:10] <ActionParsnip> brokendatapoint: i call it left panel, not sure. If you mean this: http://itmanagement.earthweb.com/img/2010/05/ubuntu-unity.png then it's called unity afaik
[10:10] <stevomanu> yo all have a major issue using ubuntu10.10 every time i connect my n900 it crashes my pc anybody any idea ?>?
[10:10] <ljsoftnet> ActionParsnip brokendatapoint ah
[10:10] <sacarlson> satya: so why are you here asking us then?
[10:11] <d-devil> Console program for wifi signal ?
[10:12] <satya> i want to install now. thats why and i want to know more about the error and why it is happened to me?
[10:12] <SitFly> Hi, I'm wondering if I can install Ubuntu 10.10 on my USB drive without having to reboot my computer?
[10:12] <kwtm> d-devil:"Console program for wifi signal ?"  Is that a question you are asking us?  Were the previous answers inadequate?
[10:13] <Stava> Is ubuntu 64bit preferred on a server with 4gb ram and 64bit cpu? :o
[10:13] <d-devil> kwtm: sorry my english is poor
[10:13] <JNZ> stanman246: Over 32 bit? Yes.
[10:13] <JNZ> er, bad tab.
[10:13] <JNZ> That was directed at Stava
[10:13] <kwtm> d-devil: Which language do you speak?  The answer to your question is: "wicd" and "iwconfig".
[10:13] <brokendatapoint> ljsoftnet: thanks but ActionParsnip was correct.
[10:14] <brokendatapoint> ActionParsnip: Unity => cool
[10:14] <Stava> JNZ, what would happen if i installed the 64 bit os on a 32bit machine? :O
[10:14] <JNZ> You would not be able to address all 4 GB of the memory.
[10:14] <ActionParsnip> brokendatapoint: i find it clunky at first, it gets better with age. personally i prefer lxde
[10:14] <Stava> alright
[10:14] <sedulous> Stava: it would not work
[10:14] <JNZ> You would not be able to take advantage of specific optimizations for 64-bit operations
[10:14] <JNZ> Stava: Ah, read it backwards.
[10:14] <ljsoftnet> brokendatapoint my bad
[10:14] <ActionParsnip> JNZ: pae addresses (pun intended) the issue with more ram in 32bit
[10:14] <JNZ> Yeah, you can't install 64-bit on a 32-bit machine :p
[10:14] <Stava> JNZ, well i get what you're saying
[10:14] <ljsoftnet> brokendatapoint no problem
[10:15] <Stava> So with a 64 bit cpu i should always use a 64bit os, if available
[10:15] <sedulous> however you can run 64 bit OSes in VMs on 32-bit machines
[10:15] <brokendatapoint> ActionParsnip: not a bad call, this is on a friend's netbook, he asked for Win 7 to disappear and he now has Gnome Netbook on, I use Xfce4.4
[10:15] <JNZ> sedulous: Which VM supports that?
[10:15] <deuterium> ActionParsnip: k, nice, i use maverick :)
[10:15] <sedulous> JNZ: VirtualBox
[10:15] <stevomanu> does anybody know a -1 channel fix on ubuntu 10.10 have tryed the post at forum but that made things worse
[10:15] <JNZ> sedulous: Not on Windows it doesn't.
[10:15] <Stava> sedulous, Is there any downside to that?
[10:15] <JNZ> sedulous: It's virtualized, it's slow, all operations are down converted.
[10:15] <sedulous> Stava: probably ^
[10:15] <TopCat> if i update smb.conf via dist-upgrade, will it overwrite my current smb.conf?
[10:16] <JNZ> Wow, too many S names.
[10:16] <JNZ> Bah.
[10:16] <JNZ> It's making auto-complete be mad
[10:16] <Stava> :(
[10:16] <Kingsy> can I run rdesktop in verbose mode?
[10:16] <d-devil> ./etc/init.d/network restart
[10:16] <d-devil> wlan0: unknown hardware address type 803
[10:16] <d-devil> wlan0: unknown hardware address type 803
[10:16] <stanman246> JNZ, righto ;-)
[10:16] <FloodBot3> d-devil: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> TopCat: i'd do a compare of the 2 files
[10:16] <d-devil> this normal ?
[10:16] <Xstava> now i'll be easier to tab-target!
[10:16] <Kingsy> I try and connect and it just says Autoselected keyboard map en-gb and sticks
[10:16] <Kingsy> I need to find out why
[10:16] <sacarlson> Stava: on a desktop it was not always a good idea to use 64bit , not as much was supported,  it has been improving so I'm not sure about today
[10:17] <SitFly> I'd like to install Ubuntu 10.10 on my usb external HDD. What things should I expect about the installation? How does this differ from an installation on my inboard HDD?
[10:17] <brokendatapoint> SitFly: in relation to your ?, I think No
[10:17] <Xstava> sacarlson, Alright, well im about to install ubuntu on a server (64bit cpu)
[10:17] <ActionParsnip> d-devil: use: sudo service networking restart
[10:17] <sedulous> sacarlson: that used to be true but i can't think of any desktop application that would be more problematic on amd64, compared to x86_32
[10:17] <d-devil> I'm logged as root
[10:18] <brokendatapoint> SitFly: have you downloaded the latest Ubuntu Netbook .iso?
[10:18] <SitFly> brokendatapoint: I've downloaded the Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop Edition .iso
[10:18] <SitFly> yes its the latest
[10:18] <TopCat> it looks the sameish
[10:18] <TopCat> nothing really different
[10:18] <funabash1> hello i bought a vps server with OpenVZ. ist possible then to encrypt my homedir?
[10:19] <TopCat> new terms i suppose
[10:19] <sacarlson> sedulous: I ran ubuntu 8.04 I could count at least 4 big problems  1. canon printer drivers could run on 64 bit,  skype at the time (now fixed) didn't work, jackd didn't work not sure if it does now,  ruby firewatir didn't work still don't on 64 bit.....
[10:19] <ActionParsnip> TopCat: you could run: sudo cp /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf_11022011
[10:19] <ActionParsnip> TopCat: ;)
[10:19] <newbieOne> does anyone know about torrents???????
[10:20] <TopCat> word
[10:20] <TopCat> good idea
[10:20] <ActionParsnip> !torrents | newbieOne
[10:20] <brokendatapoint> SitFly: I am not 100% sure but I think that the Netbook version is probably more approriate *if* you want to install. It probably has better support for onboard wireless/graphics adapters, Atom CPUs etc
[10:20] <sedulous> sacarlson: i take it that the canon printer drivers are closed source, correct?
[10:20] <brokendatapoint> SitFly: what O/S and Ver you using now?
[10:21] <sacarlson> sedulous: that correct and didn't compile them in 64 bit, same with skype closed didn't compile and still isn't compiled in 64 bit
[10:22] <SitFly> brokendatapoint: well I'm using 10.04 right now
[10:22] <newbieOne> ActionParsnip, yo, whats up
[10:22] <SitFly> brokendatapoint: I have that on my desktops hdd on the same partition as my windows 7
[10:22] <SitFly> brokendatapoint: my goal is to seperate the drives completely
[10:23] <sedulous> sacarlson: that shouldn't be a problem with proper ia32 compatibility libraries and skype has worked for me on amd64 Debian years ago already although I only use it very sporadically and never outside of virtual machines nowadays
[10:23] <newbieOne> CAN anyone help me on how to upload to Pirate Bay???
[10:23] <ActionParsnip> newbieOne: nm, you ok?
[10:23] <sedulous> (so I can't really speak about that -- generally it's closed software that used to be problematic on amd64, like Flash (no 64-bit plugin for a long time))
[10:24] <sedulous> newbieOne: that's completely off-topic in here
[10:24] <home> helloo
[10:24] <sacarlson> sedulous: I spent hours with ia32 libs in 8.04 and still didn't get all to work, the canon I found I could run virtualbox system in 32 bit and shared it from there, but when I upgraded I am now on 32bit and loving it...  all works
[10:24] <home> I have some problem here
[10:24] <raghavneon> no jacj
[10:25] <home> i'm lucid 64 bit user
[10:25] <raghavneon> no jack_
[10:25] <newbieOne> sedulous....ok
[10:25] <raghavneon> help me with mooshak installation
[10:25] <raghavneon> its throwing an internal server error
[10:25] <brokendatapoint> anyone here rolled back from Unity to the old style netbook desktop?
[10:25] <home> I hope this is support channel
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> home: please keep your explanation on one line
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> home: it is
[10:26] <brokendatapoint> home: i wish i was *lucid* ... haha
[10:26] <acheron92> so
[10:26] <newbieOne> sedulous...I m usin Ubuntu and Vuze, so maybe its not too irrelavant
[10:26] <home> ActioinParsnip
[10:26] <raghavneon> anyone has installed mooshak before?? it throws an internal server error..
[10:26] <home> ActionParsnip : Okay
[10:26] <raghavneon> please help with my apache confgi
[10:26] <newbieOne> acheron, are you from Greece?
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> raghavneon: have you asked in #httpd
[10:26] <Xstava> If I have a hdd at 30gb and i create 2 partitions, 10gb each. Will it be possible (and easy) to later expand one of the partitions to 20gb?
[10:27] <raghavneon> oh ok il ask there..thanks..
[10:27] <sedulous> newbieOne: well, create a .torrent with Vuze, login in TPB, upload it — none of it is specific to Ubuntu however.
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> Xstava: should be, yes
[10:27] <brokendatapoint> home: if you want to highlight a nick, type in the first or second character and use your Tab key to cycle through to correct nick, less chance for errors
[10:27] <Xstava> ActionParsnip, without any data loss? :o
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> Xstava: should be fine, your bacups should be made sufficiently recent though, just in case
[10:27] <acheron92> Im using maverick 64 and trying to get my m-audio delta 1010LT interface  set up with jack/ardour but i cant seem to get it to work or make sense of anything
[10:27] <newbieOne> acheron
[10:28] <newbieOne> are you from Greece?
[10:28] <Xstava> ActionParsnip, yeah, thanks
[10:28] <acheron92> no
[10:28] <acheron92> lol
[10:28] <newbieOne> acheron
[10:28] <newbieOne> was the name of a river
[10:28] <newbieOne> that Death sailed on
[10:28] <newbieOne> transporting the dead souls
[10:28] <acheron92> yeah
[10:28] <acheron92> wait
[10:29] <acheron92> i thought that was styx
[10:29] <newbieOne> in Greece it was Acheron
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> acheron92: ease up on the enter key dude
[10:29] <acheron92> okay then
[10:29] <newbieOne> I just dont type fast
[10:29] <asraniel> ActionParsnip: sorry for the delay. but i actually can't find the actual flash plugin where it is installed too. any idea?
[10:29] <home> I've recursively copy inside /usr/lib into /usr/lib32..and now I've got the message "/sbin/ldconfig.real: /usr/lib32/libjson-glib-1.0.so.0 is not symbolic link" can anybody help me to fix this""
[10:29] <newbieOne> and your attention span is short
[10:29] <newbieOne> I talked to you before and you didnt see it
[10:30] <home> oh thats just one file, actually it's plentu missing link here
[10:30] <blue112> Hi here.
[10:30] <blue112> May I upgrade my ubuntu server from 8.04 next LTS, and then, how ?
[10:30] <jrib> !upgrade | blue112, yes
[10:30] <blue112> It's not a desktop ubuntu :/
[10:31] <jrib> blue112: click the link
[10:31] <blue112> Mkay
[10:31]  * blue112 clicks
[10:31] <newbieOne> is it my idea, or 10.10 has issues?my firefox for example, crashes all the time
[10:31] <acheron92> anyway, back to my m-audio issue. I´ve got it working fine under XP so I know its all plugged in correctly. Iǘe also got the envy24 stuff installed and neither that or anything else is reading any sound in or out.
[10:32] <babypig> j
[10:32] <ActionParsnip> blue112: yes absolutely, its the fastest way to get upgraded
[10:32] <qrq> Who doesnt have facebook account?
[10:32] <sacarlson> newbieOne: you running 64bit?
[10:32] <newbieOne> 32
[10:32] <blue112> ActionParsnip, ok, I've found the method on the link jrib gave me.
[10:32] <ActionParsnip> qrq: how is that ubuntu support related?
[10:32] <asraniel> ActionParsnip: problem solved with "sudo apt-get install --reinstall flashplugin-installer"
[10:33] <brokendatapoint> i just noticed that there is not much info in the /docs regarding Netbook/Unity. Anyone got a good URL handy?
[10:33] <qrq> ActionParsnip Its digression
[10:33] <raghavneon> how to join #httpd..its telling to register with a person called nickserv..how should i do that
[10:33] <sacarlson> newbieOne: propriatary video drivers?  I had problems with flash at times
[10:33] <newbieOne> installed
[10:33] <jrib> !register | raghavneon
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> newbieOne: yuo could rename your firefox settings folder, see if vanilla profile makes it fly
[10:33] <newbieOne> thanks
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> qrq: this is support ONLY, discussion is in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[10:34] <qrq> ActionParsnip Ok :)
[10:35] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: will a plain vanilla profile in firefox disable flash?
[10:36] <sacarlson> I think I should make a profile in firefox that does disables flash if not
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: depends how the plugin is implemented
[10:37] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: I don't know I just used the restricted extra deb thing
[10:44] <brokendatapoint> is Unity part of Ubuntu or a sub-project of Gnome?
[10:44] <ardchoille> brokendatapoint: ubuntu
[10:46] <ardchoille> !unity | brokendatapoint
[10:48] <brokendatapoint> ubottu: you little ripper!
[10:48] <brokendatapoint> i don't...
[10:49] <mevvis> you do x]
[10:50] <razdwa> hey, what is the current best way to add admin script to autostart in ubuntu?
[10:50] <llutz> razdwa: add it to /etc/rc.local
[10:50] <brokendatapoint> mevvis: haha
[10:51] <jrib> razdwa: what does your script do exactly?
[10:51] <razdwa> llutz: can it be just commnad?
[10:51] <brokendatapoint> might relogin to Unity rather than Xfce, Unity seems pretty damn sexy
[10:51] <llutz> razdwa: it can, depends  on what it does
[10:53] <razdwa> it's a keylogger ;)
[10:53] <razdwa> logkeys, it's in repo
[11:04] <SUFLEX> after file /etc/hosts(modified) replaces by default-file. why? how to fix?
[11:04] <SUFLEX> after reboot
[11:04] <Guest19363> aaa
[11:05] <sacarlson> SUFLEX: that's not happening to me,  you sure you don't mean like /etc/resolv.conf ?
[11:05] <SUFLEX> no. /etc/hosts
[11:06] <sacarlson> SUFLEX: you sure after edit you cat /etc/hosts  and it's modified?
[11:06] <sacarlson> SUFLEX: oh or you are booting from a live cd or usb?
[11:08] <kish> i got a maverick minimal filesystem, that I use for OMAP3430..
[11:08] <SUFLEX> sacarlson: yeah. i write like this <IP_ADDRESS> localhost mysite. after reboot mysite dissapears. and it is not available
[11:08] <kish> i want to install additional packages and i realized the minimal package does not have dpkg tool.
[11:09] <SUFLEX> now it is available
[11:09] <SUFLEX> before reboot
[11:09] <jrib> kish: are you sure?  That sounds strange
[11:09] <sacarlson> SUFLEX: live cd boot?
[11:09] <SUFLEX> sacarlson:  no
[11:11] <sacarlson> SUFLEX: what method of install did you use?
[11:12] <SUFLEX> sacarlson: i installed it on hdd.
[11:12] <SUFLEX> sacarlson: from disk
[11:13] <sacarlson> SUFLEX: from disk like standard cd disk?  what iso file did you use?
[11:14] <SUFLEX> sacarlson: standar. ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso
[11:15] <mark_> hey
[11:15] <sacarlson> SUFLEX: I could install from hard disk with a modified grub2 entry that could do what is happeining to you but I assume you used a cd to install?
[11:16] <SUFLEX>  sacarlson:  yeah
[11:16] <mark_> itrayd to setup ubuntu server 10.10 for irc
[11:16] <mark_> with ircd hybrid
[11:17] <mark_> need some help with installing that
[11:17] <sacarlson> SUFLEX: oh ok so you installed from hard drive then you need to change your grub2 default to now boot your installed persistant boot
[11:19] <mark29> itrayd to setup ubuntu server 10.10 for irc server
[11:19] <mark29> with ircd hybrid
[11:19] <mark29> need some help with installing that

[11:27] <iDangerMouse> Good day,
[11:27] <iDangerMouse> I have a question
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> rgogunskiy: thats what I thought
[11:28] <sacarlson> SUFLEX: you did pull the install cd out of the drive didn't you?
[11:28] <SUFLEX>  sacarlson:  yeah. of course
[11:28] <ActionParsnip> iDangerMouse: ask away and keep it on one line, we will help if we can
[11:28] <SUFLEX> there is no disk on drive
[11:28] <sacarlson> SUFLEX: ok I'm totaly out of ideas,  I know of no program that would modify /etc/hosts
[11:29] <tiago> ola galera bom dia
[11:29] <tiago> instalei a ultima versao do ubuntu so q estou levando um baile para configurar a rede
[11:29] <jrib> SUFLEX, sacarlson: probably network-manager (guessing)
[11:29] <SUFLEX>  sacarlson: thanks anyway. it is so strange.
[11:30] <tiago> já nao é a primeira vez q desisto de distribuições linux por nao conseguir configurar a rede
[11:30] <tiago> alguem poderia me dar uma ajuda
[11:30] <tiago> pelo modo gráfico aparece as placas de rede so q elas ficam em branco tipow como tivessem desabilitadas
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> !brazil | tiago
[11:31] <tiago> eu ja editei pelo gedit /etc/network/interfaces coloquei ip maskara e tudo salvei restartei depois e nada alguem poderia me da um help por favor
[11:31] <SUFLEX> jrib:  and? what should be done?
[11:31] <tiago> ok valeu
[11:32] <sacarlson> jrib: SUFLEX: well that's posible since I have network-manager disabled I could have missed ever seeing that before
[11:32] <iDangerMouse> ActionParsnip: Have you used VMware?
[11:33] <iDangerMouse> ActionParsnip: Can't get the USB wireless on it working, running ubuntu
[11:33] <satya> hello guys
[11:33] <jrib> SUFLEX: my first suggestion would be to see if there's a way to accomplish what you are trying to do through network-manager's interface
[11:34] <jrib> SUFLEX: here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/663397
[11:34] <satya> i configured openssl. if i connect to the virtualhost from my client it says you dont have permission to access on this server
[11:34] <ActionParsnip> iDangerMouse: i haven't but did you ask in #vmware for configuring the guest to use usb connectivity?
[11:34] <home> when I run "sudo ldconfig", I get "/sbin/ldconfig.real: /usr/lib32/libstdc++.so.5 is not a symbolic link". I've checked, and that's true -- it exists, but it's not a symlink. How should I fix that? Ubuntu 10.04 64bit
[11:34] <v_> how do i play 3gp file ?
[11:35] <iDangerMouse> ActionParsnip: Yes no help there.
[11:35] <iDangerMouse> ActionParsnip: Got them confused
[11:35] <jrib> SUFLEX: that bug provides a workaround.  It's actually a doop of bug #659872, so read that one too.  It has the same workaround but more discussion.  You should follow the bug if you are interested
[11:35] <ActionParsnip> home: try:  sudo mv /usr/lib32/libstdc++.so.5 /usr/lib32/libstdc++.so.5_orig; sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libstdc++.so.5_orig /usr/lib32/libstdc++.so.5
[11:35] <jrib> dup? doop? :/
[11:35] <ActionParsnip> home: just entertains it by renaming the file, then symlinking the originial filename to the renamed file
[11:36] <jrib> home: well why did you recursively copy /usr/lib to /usr/lib32... sounds like you're just asking for things to break.
[11:36] <SUFLEX> jrib: thanks a lot mister )
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> home: just humours the app and won't affect anything else :)
[11:36] <iDangerMouse> Oh well
[11:36] <sacarlson> SUFLEX: I see other had that problem here and they say something about add something in networking tabs? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=372420  at the bottom
[11:36]  * iDangerMouse is in class
[11:36] <iDangerMouse> ActionParsnip: Thanks old chap ! be back later :)
[11:36] <satya> sacarlson: i configured openssl. if i connect to the virtualhost from my client it says you dont have permission to access on this server
[11:37] <SUFLEX> sacarlson: ok )
[11:37] <sacarlson> satya: cool getting closer,  what dir did you point your site to?  what permisions and owner is that dir?
[11:38] <satya> sacarlson: /var/www/ and permissions 400
[11:38]  * jrib ponders when 400 on a directory would be appropriate...
[11:38] <sacarlson> satya: well 400 I think only root can read it then
[11:39] <satya> sacarlson: so i need to change to 666
[11:39] <sacarlson> satya: that might work a bit better
[11:39] <jrib> satya: you likely want execute permissions on directories
[11:40] <satya> sacarlson: kk
[11:40] <sacarlson> satya: jirb: I concure
[11:40] <v_> satya: how do i play 3gp files?
[11:40] <ActionParsnip> satya: assuming root is the owner ;)
[11:40] <home> jrib, well I just follow some installation of some program called pcsx2...it says to copy all data from /usr/lib to /usr/lib32 in order to make it work in 64 bit environment, alas I've got my wine and printer sucks in the end
[11:41] <v_> ActionParsnip:how do i play 3gp files?
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> v_: install w32codecs, ubuntu-restrivted-extras, gnome-mplayer and vlc and you should be able to play anything
[11:41] <jrib> home: well that sounds kind of silly
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> home: you will need to manually pull down 32bit debs, extract them then put the .so file(s) in /usr/lib32
[11:42] <home> ActionParsnip, thanks mate..anyway the missing symlink is a lot here...could I do it manually one by one?
[11:42] <Guest5435> well mplayer has problems with mp4 in my experience - but that's the only thing I've found it had trouble with
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> home: i guess
[11:42] <webster> hi
[11:43] <webster> everybody
[11:43] <jrib> home: you probably just need the ia32-* packages, none of this copying stuff
[11:43] <webster> iam webster
[11:43] <home> owh man..what a long nite
[11:43] <jrib> hello webster
[11:43] <webster> iam a engneer of it
[11:43] <home> jrib, so first I remove all data in /usr/lib32?
[11:44] <jrib> home: I'd undo whatever you did, I don't know if that's the same as removing all data in /usr/lib32
[11:44] <webster> C++ and c is my language
[11:44] <acheron92> hey i need some help with dualscreen and games with nvidia. I just booted up assaultcube and it was on both screens which I dont want. Any way to change this without disabling a monitor everytime?

[11:47] <Guest5435> when do we expect to see afp support in ubuntu?
[11:47] <Guest5435> i.e. as afp client
[11:47] <deno> hi there
[11:48] <deno> I'm modifying the Makefile.am of a project but even if I modify completely, if I execute make it compiles always the old things
[11:48] <deno> it's like the Makefile is not modified
[11:48] <jrib> deno: well don't you need to run automake?  #autotools can probably help you more
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> Guest5435: you can make an afp server alredy
[11:49] <Guest5435> if you're talking about the code at sourceforge - I've tried it
[11:49] <Oins> Hi. Can anyone give me a hint how I can mount my ext4 FS with windows 7 (64bit).
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> Guest5435: just ditch afp and use more open standards like sftp or even samba
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> Guest5435: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1304154
[11:50] <deno> jrib, I read that it was enough to call make.. Do you know what is the command?
[11:51] <jrib> deno: make just runs Makefile.  I don't know much about autotools, but like I said, I believe you need to run « automake ».  Go to #autotools and ask there.  They have references in the topic you can read as well
[11:52] <deno> jrib, ok thx
[11:52] <Guest5435> yeah I've followed that link and tried compiling the afp client software - but its not 64 bit clean and it dies with compilation errors
[11:52] <jrib> abcdefghijklmnoa: stop please

[12:31] <deny> ok, this is my first time with KDE and konsole, before I was allways using gnome..My question is, why I cant bind shift + up or down for backward/forward history search. just to mention that this must be something with shortcut key of KDE, because in xterm history search works well..Any help how to solve this in konsole ?
[12:32] <Guest5435> touch creates the file if it didn't already exist
[12:32] <dr0id> ok
[12:32] <Guest5435> but it just sets the date of file access if the file already exists
[12:34] <Driiper> do anyone know what would cause my webserver to return a 500 Internal server error instead of the actual PHP error thats in my script?
[12:35] <harvi> deny: why do you need shift+up/down ??? I can browse history with up/down and dont need to change...
[12:35] <SitFly> Hi, I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop i386 onto my external HDD, but now when it goes to boot up it says file not found.
[12:36] <zaggynl> hi, I'm using dd_rescue from ubuntu 10.10 and it keeps scrolling my terminal instead of updating, what gives
[12:36] <Guest5435> need some more info SitFly
[12:36] <SitFly> Guest5435: such as?
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> zaggynl: what dd_rescue command did you use?
[12:37] <nybras> Hi, I just got a Logitech G510 keyboard for my birthday. I installed the G15tools, but g15deamon wont run...says cant connect to valid g15 device...any help would be apreciated
[12:37] <Guest5435> at what point does it fail the boot process?
[12:37] <zaggynl> ActionParsnip: just dd_rescue /dev/sdb /dev/sda -l logfile.txt
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> zaggynl: and does the destination partition have enough space and is it mounted writable?
[12:37] <zaggynl> afaik both of them _shouldn't_ be mounted
[12:37] <heyguise> Is this right "sudo rename 's/.cybercom/' *.html Will convert all .cybercome files in a dir into .html files?
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> zaggynl: so you are cloning?
[12:38] <zaggynl> yeah
[12:38] <zaggynl> trying to rescue a broken hdd
[12:38] <jrib> heyguise: no
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> zaggynl: backups would have save theneed for this you know...
[12:38] <nybras> "Unable to attach to the G15 Keyboard... exiting" is what i get
[12:38] <zaggynl> uh yeah
[12:38] <SitFly> Guest5435: Power On, Manufacturer's Screen, Black Screen with saying "error: file not found." then a grub> prompt
[12:38] <zaggynl> but this isn't my hdd
[12:38] <deny> harvi, not that, I want history backward forward search..for example, if my bash history contain line with iwconfig wlan0 essid, i just type in bash iwconfig and pressing arrow up or down gives me all my previous phraze or commands binded for my first keyword
[12:38] <zaggynl> also, folks only get angry if you tell that to their face
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> zaggynl: i suggest you educate the owner :)
[12:39] <zaggynl> "heehe, bad luck mate, reiamge done in 1h, have a nice day"
[12:39] <zaggynl> so about that scrolling window thing
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> zaggynl: you could use dd_rescue to make an image file like an ISO then pull data out that way. If the drive physically works you can just use foremost on the drive to pull files off
[12:40] <ActionParsnip> zaggynl: I tell them, people LOVE learning why backups are good the hardest way possible
[12:41] <Guest5435> SitFly I don't have anything come to mind, but you may want to learn about grub and explore the problem from there
[12:42] <SitFly> Guest5435: do you have a suggestion on a good starting place to learn about grub?
[12:42] <Paulo39> do you know if unetbootin software can burn an image on a pen directly from a cd, or do i have to pass the iso to the computer first?
[12:42] <heyguise> could any one help me. I need to batch change alot of file extensions but im unsure how to go about it
[12:42] <zaggynl> ActionParsnip: well the problem isn't that dd_rescue isn't working, it's just that it updates the screen oddly, it scrolls like mad
[12:43] <wonderworld> heyguise: maybe try -> sudo apt-get install krename
[12:43] <heyguise> wonderowlrd thanks
