[13:39] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: they have to be in the console/terminal, not when X is running. if X is running, you have to use ctrl-alt-f1, etc

[13:39] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: okay, good bet that dbus is really working fine and it's just a warning message, nothing to be worried about

[13:40] <Gnea> ugh why won't this cd work?!
[13:41] <bigmahatma> I have a ADSL connection, which goes to a modem/router, which goes to a switch, and finally to ca. 10 PCs. How can I measure the amount of traffic coming and going tto/from each PC? NB. I have admin access to everything, I'd rather not to install SW on the PCs, and the router hasn't got such a function..
[13:41] <rtyuio> hello there
[13:41] <sipior> xro: what happens with "sudo service mysql start"?
[13:42] <Younder> nothing
[13:42] <sipior> Gnea: perhaps it's time to try another
[13:42] <Younder> /etc/init.d/
[13:42] <Pumpkin-> bigmahatma: does the switch provide port utilisation statistics via snmp ?
[13:42] <Tristan3199us> asks gdm, kdm, or lxdm. gdm right?
[13:42] <xro> sipior, it never ends....
[13:42] <bigmahatma> Pumpkin-: no :(
[13:42] <sipior> xro: it never ends?

[13:43] <rtyuio> hello there i can't able to update this is the error what i got : http://paste.ubuntu.com/566966/
[13:43] <Pumpkin-> bigmahatma: then I think you have to install something somewhere. If you only care about internet access, you might be able to get something from the router, but it would depend on what the router was.
[13:43] <Gargamel> \me needs help too
[13:43] <rtyuio> can't able to update
[13:44] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: well, you installed lxde, right?

[13:47] <Younder> Someone is trying to figure out the rate at which the flodboot triggers. We need a operator NOW!
[13:47] <nachosx> Hi. I'm trying to forward all traffic destined to port 80 to port 2097 but my iptable rule does not seem to be working.
[13:47] <Gargamel> just installed ubuntu 10.04, but during the updates, i accidentally switched off the PC with my hoover. now it's stuck, i can see the desktop, but the mouse won't move and the keyboard does not answer
[13:47] <AgentTeddie> can someone help me out?
[13:47] <Gnea> AgentTeddie: if you can get a menu with F12 during POST, you should be able to select it
[13:48] <nachosx> is there anything else i would need to enable
[13:48] <Pici> Younder: The ops are already here and aware of the situation.
[13:48] <Gargamel> :/
[13:48] <nachosx> ive done ipforwarding and i dont know what else i can do
[13:48] <AgentTeddie> Gnea: i have done that but it is not listed there... and the flash drive is on
[13:48] <nachosx> this is the rule,
[13:48] <nachosx> iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --destination-port 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 2097
[13:48] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: pretty much, so just pick one and go for it - I recommend gdm to stay inline with gnome
[13:48] <Gnea> AgentTeddie: okay, can you switch the order in the bios?
[13:49] <Gargamel> anyone please ? :)
[13:49] <Tristan3199us> gnea: now what should i do??
[13:49] <AgentTeddie> Gnea: yes i can but the drive is not listed there, it is on, i am looking at it, but when I try to switch the boot order, or choose the boot device, it is not listed...
[13:49] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: are you logged into gnome right now?
[13:49] <sipior> Gargamel: if you just installed it, might be easier to just reinstall it quickly.
[13:49] <Tristan3199us> yes, as root tho
[13:49] <Gnea> AgentTeddie: doesn't matter, can you select something like USB-ZIP or USB-FDD?
[13:49] <Tristan3199us> gnome is default still...
[13:50] <pindonga> hi, is it possible to have a script sign the deb packages when building them with (debuild, dpkg-buildpackage) so that it can be automated?

[13:50] <Eua> I used live usb, how copy files into the USB flash?
[13:50] <AgentTeddie> Gnea: i know that, all that is listed is my main hard drive, the floppy drive, and that is it, there should be a third option for my usb drive and its not there...
[13:50] <Gnea> !usb | Eua
[13:50] <Jinxed---> Are there any good wikis that can install easily onto ubuntu? I'm looking for something that I can host myself and have people I work with be able to log in and edit it, add pages, documents, and have revision control.

[13:51] <Gnea> AgentTeddie: how old is your system?
[13:51] <sipior> Jinxed---: i believe there's a dokuwiki package available.

[13:52] <rtyuio>  anyone there ?
[13:52] <Tristan3199us> gnea: im in root so its not there. nether is reboot or shut down

[13:53] <Gargamel> sorry

[13:53] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: what about ctrl-alt-backspace
[13:53] <Tristan3199us> should i reboot and then sudo service gdm start
[13:54] <nikitis> Hey guys, got a mouse issue.  When I right click, upon doing a button press, it brings up the context menu, when it should only bring it up upon a button release.  Know how I can fix this?
[13:54] <Tristan3199us> ctrl atl del brings up a shut down menu.. but i cant use any of the buttons but cancel and it says logged in as "root"
[13:54] <induz> I just noticed that some  web pages are scrambled when viewed using Firefox, what is the solution
[13:54] <Gnea> AgentTeddie: it's possible your system doesn't support booting from usb natively, or something's wrong with the usb drive you're trying to use
[13:55] <induz> I have Ubuntu Lucid with FF 3
[13:55] <Eua> Using the live usb, how to copy files to USB flash memory
[13:55] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: I said ctrl-alt-backspace, not ctrl-alt-del
[13:55] <Tristan3199us> backspace does nothing
[13:55] <Tristan3199us> or f1
[13:55] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: then just reboot
[13:56] <Tristan3199us> ok.. will do
[13:56] <nikitis> ctrl+alt+backspace is disabled by default now. need an option in in xorg.conf to enable it

[14:07] <Oins> schnuffle: ah ok, thank you (and all other) for you hints!
[14:07] <aristidesfl> Dr_Willis: thanks.. so it obviously didn't fix my shutdown/restart problem..
[14:07] <jrib> Oins: you send 2 to where 1 is going (so now 2 goes to stdout) and then you send 1 to a file (2 still goes to stdout).  That's why you need the other order (> file 2>&1).  This way you send 1 to file and 2 to where 1 is going (to file)
[14:07] <schnuffle> Oins: git congfused as well the first time
[14:07] <llutz> Oins: yours only works while nothing is written to stderr
[14:07] <aristidesfl> or maybe it did..
[14:07] <Dr_Willis> vasu:   ive seen others that have the reverse problem. Never seen a definitive 'fix' for it. The forums may have some help,

[14:25] <BluesKaj> aroshlakshan, whynot just use nautilus/places?
[14:26] <lduros> is there a command line alternative to sftp? I'm used to using ncftp which is great, bookmarks a site etc, but the sftp command line doesn't do all that
[14:26] <lduros> thanks
[14:26] <roffman> I use nagios but I would like to know if anyone has any idea how to monitor a raid array using nagios
[14:26] <arand> aroshlakshan: yes
[14:26] <Pici> roffman: Then I'd suggest asking in Nagio's support channel: #nagios
[14:26] <aroshlakshan> hows that bluekaj??
[14:26] <rigved> hi everyone...i want to install debian on a pc using netboot. here, after the bootloader on the pc has loaded, i want it to load the installation image from a dhcp server, which will be on my ubuntu laptop. can anyone tell me how to do this? or can anyone tell me if such a thing is documented somewhere on the debian manual?
[14:27] <cool> rigved: goto #debian
[14:27] <bazhang> rigved, ask in #debian ?
[14:27] <Oer> cool check the hardware list, just released > http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog
[14:27] <schnuffle> aroshlakshan: another time: 1. open a terminal, 2. enter: sudo vi /etc/fstab, 3. add a line: /dev/<yourntfspartition>  /mountpoint ntfs  defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007 0 0
[14:27] <bazhang> Linux Kernel 2.6.29 (Support Ubuntu 2.6 only) cool
[14:27] <roffman> Pici Thanks
[14:27] <milamber> rigved: http://www.debian.org/distrib/netinst
[14:28] <cool> bazhang: Ubuntu 2.6? I run 10.4LTS. Will it work?
[14:28] <surial> Huh, how do you escape a ! in a string in bash? Just a ! does a history search, but \! includes the backslash in the string. D'oh.
[14:28] <cool> Oer: Thanks
[14:29] <rigved> cool, bazhang: well, i just wanted to know how to set up the dhcp server to serve this request and how to configure tftpd to send the installation image to the pc
[14:29] <bazhang> cool, lucid uses <IP_ADDRESS>.32
[14:29] <milamber> surial: http://tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/sect_03_03.html
[14:29] <aroshlakshan> k think i got it
[14:29] <rigved> milamber: that will install everything from the internet, not from an already downloaded image on my laptop
[14:29] <aroshlakshan> thanks guys
[14:30] <aroshlakshan> keep up the good work
[14:30] <cool> bazhang: Then should would work. Thanks
[14:30] <surial> milamber: This page is wrong.
[14:30] <surial> milamber: It contains an example that does not work.
[14:30] <cool> Oer: Looks like its supported. http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog/model/pci:0781:1814-NETWORK Thanks again
[14:30] <surial> milamber: echo "I'd say: \"Go for it!\"" <-- the result according to that page is 'I'd say: "Go for it!"'. That's not what hapepns. what happens is the usual: event not found.
[14:31] <milamber> surial: did you try the single quotes?
[14:31] <Oer> cool, have fun :-)
[14:31] <erUSUL> surial: disable history expansion
[14:31] <surial> milamber: That would work, except I need variable substitution eearlier in the string. Can I concat a double-quoted string adn a single-quoted string?
[14:32] <snapp> hi
[14:32] <snapp> i have a question
[14:32] <Geniuso> Can anyone tell me where I can find ~/.wine folder ????
[14:33] <erUSUL> Geniuso: ~/.wine is the whole path. ~ expands to your home folder
[14:33] <milamber> rigved: tftp net booting is not what you are looking for?
[14:33] <ljsoftnet> Geniuso: its on your home folder, dont forget to click on "View Hidden Files" in nautilus
[14:33] <erUSUL> Geniuso: so $HOME/,wine , ~/.wine and /home/yourusername/.wine are the same thing
[14:33] <milamber> surial: should be able to
[14:33] <erUSUL> $HOME/.wine*
[14:34] <snapp> i want create LVM but the space must be to the initial disk or it can also when the already present system?
[14:35] <Skeeter-> Good Morning everyone. I would like to remove completly my debian and install ubuntu. My only concern is my RAID6, if i copy the fstab over will that be enough or i need some more other config files
[14:35] <erUSUL> Skeeter-: /etc/mdadm/ folder comes to mind
[14:35] <Skeeter-> erUSUL: ya, sry mdadm configs 4 sure.
[14:36] <erUSUL> surial: if you haven't figured it yet... disable history expansion --> set +o histexpand
[14:36] <rigved> milamber: yes. but the netboot image of debian is a just a bootloader which is loaded via tftp. after that, the remaining installation is carried from the internet. what i want is the pc to load an installation image from my ubuntu laptop
[14:36] <surial> erUSUL: Right. I was trying to avoid futzing about with that.
[14:36] <erUSUL> surial: i have it in my bashrc as i find it useless
[14:36] <surial> I actually like it.
[14:36] <Geniuso> erUSUL: I cant see wine folder how to unhide this folder ?
[14:37] <erUSUL> Geniuso: crtl + h in nautilus window
[14:37] <surial> I'd have to start a subshell and disable it there so as not to mess with the shell itself. I guess that's whate it takes to escape a #%(*@#$(*#@ exclamation mark. Urgh. I might just rewrite this in a real programming language.
[14:37] <erUSUL> surial: should not affect in a script; only in interactive shell afaik
[14:38] <surial> erUSUL: huh?
[14:38] <surial> erUSUL: If I put echo "hello!" in a script, it'll fail.
[14:38] <Geniuso> erUSUL: tnx i see now this
[14:38] <jrib> surial: use single quotes, not double
[14:38] <surial> erUSUL: I could put shopt in there, but if this script is sourced or whatnot, won't that cause the setopt to stick around for whomever invoked it? Which is what I'm trying to avoid.
[14:38] <surial> jrib: I'm simplifying the question. My actual use case includes variable expansion and thus cannot use single quotes.
[14:39] <jrib> surial: I don't understand how that would matter.
[14:39] <surial> jrib: echo '$bar!' will just print $bar! - it won't expand the bar variable.
[14:39] <jrib> surial: foo=bar; echo "$foo"'!'
[14:40] <surial> Oh that works?
[14:40] <surial> hold on.
[14:40] <milamber> rigved: http://www.debian.org/releases/etch/i386/ch04s06.html.en   i am sorry, but i am not sure how this is not what you want. you can set up a local machine with an image (DHCP) and tell the computer to install that image.
[14:40] <surial> Well, colour me green and call me a parakeet. That was in hindsight logical. Thanks!
[14:40] <jrib> surial: yeah, that's how you concatenate strings in bash
[14:41] <rigved> milamber: yes that's exactly what i wanted. thanks anyways for your help! :)
[14:41] <jrib> parakeet: anyway, I'm off, bye!

It would be great if I could access the windows folder hierarchy and if it would use the internet "windows" (respecting vpn and so on... Is thi spossible?
[15:01] <compdoc> you can install vmware and run linux in that
[15:01] <llutz> Aufwind: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/
[15:01] <compdoc> but its not like its going to work with win7

[15:10] <slipkid08> oh I see okay
[15:10] <tiptop> hello ubuntu, I am here to ask for help in installing packages such as libuniconf4.6 and wvdial
[15:10] <slipkid08> I have no idea, I don't mess with bluetooth
[15:10] <slipkid08> I've found it too unstable
[15:11] <tiptop> libuniconf etc are packages that are dependencies for wvdial
[15:11] <slipkid08> What are you trying to do with the bluetooth?
[15:11] <tiptop> I have downloaded them and need to install them offline
[15:11] <ilea> hi all
[15:11] <bc81> Taksas027: did you try reinstalling it?
[15:11] <tiptop> is there a specific directory on to which these packages need to be unpacked?
[15:12] <schnuffle> tiptop: sudo dpkg -i packagename
[15:12] <rsh> slipkid08, want 2 connect to dun and browse phone
[15:12] <tiptop> schnuffle thanks
[15:12] <slipkid08> do you have an iphone?
[15:12] <Taksas027> bc81, no i was just instaling and i get it, but i can use chrome, so idk maybe something is wrong
[15:12] <schnuffle> tiptop: any reason why you don't use the repository
[15:12] <rsh> samsung
[15:12] <slipkid08> oh I was going to say
[15:12] <slipkid08> lol
[15:13] <tiptop> schnuffle do i have to be in any specific directory? the reason why i dont use the repository is because I am still offline, installing this to get online
[15:13] <bc81> Taksas027: if it works, i wouldn't worry.  but you could always try reinstalling
[15:13] <slipkid08> the iOS on the iPhone made it purposely able to connect, but you can't browse the files
[15:13] <slipkid08> okay hang on lemme check on that real quick for you
[15:13] <schnuffle> tiptop: no you need to be in the directory where your package is located or you give the path to it
[15:14] <Taksas027> bc81, i dont know how to uninstall
[15:14] <slipkid08> rsh: PM me your computer info, like make, model, etc
[15:14] <tiptop> schnuffle i am in Downloads and from here I simple say dpkg -i pkgname?
[15:14] <tiptop> sudo dpkg -i
[15:14] <schnuffle> tiptop: yes, but use sudo dpkg -i , you need root permissions to install
[15:15] <slipkid08> rsh you could try using Blueman
[15:15] <tiptop> schnuffle thanks, will do this
[15:15] <rsh> skipkid08, i m fairly new to irc . how 2 pm , yes blueman doesn't help ider.

[15:21] <majidd> hi, how can I install gcc 2.9???
[15:22] <sipior> majidd: call an archeologist?
[15:22] <majidd> sipior: well, I need it to compile simplescalar
[15:22] <majidd> sipior: It's a computer hardware simulator
[15:22] <sipior> majidd: you're sure it doesn't build under gcc4?
[15:23] <Taksas027> bc81, i know why that happened, didnt save install pack on cd just opened it, so foudn where to uninstall and installed again :)
[15:23] <majidd> sipior: yes, I've been struggling for two days
[15:23] <slipkid08> okay
[15:23] <slipkid08> rsh
[15:23] <rsh> yes
[15:23] <majidd> sipior: what repository should I use?
[15:23] <sipior> majidd: perhaps you should contact the folks who wrote the software.
[15:23] <Arch__> gcc 2...
[15:23] <Arch__> go to haiku
[15:23] <Arch__> o.o
[15:23] <slipkid08> I've found this article on how to enable a BT keyboard and Mouse http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-setup-bluetooth-keyboard-and-mouse-in-ubuntu.html
[15:24] <majidd> sipior: ok, tnx
[15:24] <slipkid08> it might help you set up a BTStack to handle your Samsung
[15:24] <pol> good morning can some one help me? I have an aplication from work, it is a .exe. How can I set up exe files? in ubunto notebook. PS I have already wine intall
[15:24] <sipior> majidd: you can always build gcc 2.9 from source. that could be fun.
[15:24] <eXpLoD> isn't the terminal actually a bash shell?
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> pol: right click the file, mark it as executable in the properties of the file, then open it with wine
[15:24] <slipkid08> and yes, try reinstalling bluez
[15:24] <majidd> sipior: I have tried, but I get errors
[15:24] <developerhealey> is there any Calendar servers that work well on UBUNTU for  smart phones like iphones/blackberry etc  and windows standalone apps... i need a point in the right direction  i tried googling it...
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> eXpLoD: the default is bash, you can use any shell you desire
[15:25] <schnuffle> majidd: debian woody uses gcc 2.95, I still have a machine runing just for that prupose
[15:25] <rumpe1> majidd, why not use another hardware simulator?
[15:25] <tiptop> schunffle installed four packages, one more is a tar.gz package, dpkg -i does not work
[15:25] <majidd> rumpe1: it must be simplescalar-arm
[15:25] <slipkid08> rsh
[15:25] <slipkid08> look up
[15:25] <eXpLoD> so that means i can use a python shell as defualt in the terminal for instance?
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> eXpLoD: you define the users shell in /etc/passwd   you can use dash if you desire (for example)
[15:25] <majidd> schnuffle, do you know the name of repositories it uses?
[15:25] <rsh> yes i m doing it.
[15:25] <deivison> uhuuuuuhuuuuhuuuhuu
[15:26] <schnuffle> tiptop: tar.gz is certainly a source code package, the normal way to install is: unpack, enter directory, read README, ./configure, make, make install
[15:26] <slipkid08> ok
[15:26] <deivison> www.orkut.com
[15:26] <majidd> schnuffle, maybe I could add them to my sources.list and install it by synaptic
[15:26] <slipkid08> rsh: You might have to build your own BT stack to handle it
[15:26] <deivison> Meeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnggoooooooooooooooooooo
[15:26] <gpc> deivison: please don't do that
[15:27] <schnuffle> majidd: repositories are gone
[15:27] <majidd> schnuffle: pardon?
[15:27] <slipkid08> and in that case, someone of a strong BT/Linux background might be of more assistance to you, I am just kinda pointing you in the direction
[15:27] <rsh> slipkid08, how do i bulid it
[15:27] <deivison> Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnggooooooooooooooooooooo
[15:27] <majidd> schnuffle: what do you mean?
[15:27] <slipkid08> Okay
[15:27] <slipkid08> lol
[15:27] <deivison> Uma Vez Flamengo
[15:28] <deivison> Sempre Flamengo
[15:28] <sipior> deivison: that's nice. go away.
[15:28] <deivison> Flamengo Sempre eu hei de ser
[15:28] <schnuffle> majidd: the repositories don't exist anymore, just looking for a mirror
[15:28] <deivison> é o meu maior prazer
[15:28] <slipkid08> rsh: find someone on here that has a strong BT background and they might be able to help you, or you can Google "building a bluetooth stack Ubuntu Hardy"
[15:28] <gpc> !pt > deivison
[15:28] <slipkid08> it will take a while, and it is kind of a pain in the ass, but it's worth it in the end
[15:29] <majidd> schnuffle: I have repostories on my ubuntu 10.04 the newest version
[15:29] <majidd> schnuffle: I am sure they still exist
[15:29] <schnuffle> majidd: http://archive.debian.org/debian-archive/debian/dists/
[15:29] <slipkid08> rsh: I would also consider upgrading to Ubuntu 10.10 :)
[15:29] <rsh> slipkid08, thanx. for ur extendd help
[15:29] <slipkid08> some of those problems may have been solved in 10.10
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> schnuffle: don't mix debian repos with ubuntu
[15:29] <rsh> slipkid08, i can't i have 512 ram ddr1
[15:29] <slipkid08> Yeah, no problem :)
[15:29] <ubuspire> hi all, is there an easy way to join an opendirectory (os x) domain using ubuntu 10.10 for login credentials etc?
[15:30] <slipkid08> oh right...sorry about that
[15:30] <slipkid08> forgot
[15:30] <schnuffle> ActionParsnip: I don't majidd asked for it
[15:30] <slipkid08> rsh: is your installation on a box or a laptop?
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> schnuffle: you should advise its a bad idea
[15:30] <schnuffle> ActionParsnip: okay
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> rsh: why is ram a factor in upgrading to maverick/
[15:30] <majidd> schnuffle: tnx, man
[15:30] <rsh> slipkid08, i tried compiling bluez utils and it gives errror. its box
[15:31] <sipior> ubuspire: open directory is just ldap, right?
[15:31] <tiptop> schnuffle the readme talks about two more dependencies, need to find and install them first, and then , it simply says that "by default wvdial will install in usr local bin
[15:31] <majidd> schnuffle: can I Use them in ubuntu?
[15:31] <ubuspire> sipior, yes.
[15:31] <Lint01> why the hell my gtk2 library is in English?
[15:31] <slipkid08> rsh: ActionParsnip has a good point
[15:31] <tiptop> schnuffle it says "to build and install, make, make install.  Nothing more
[15:31] <Nevstah> hey guys, is this the right place to ask about dhcp3-server config?
[15:31] <rsh> ActionParsnip, i live in a place where there r no venders
[15:31] <schnuffle> majidd: not if you don't really know what you are doing
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> rsh: later versions don't eat more resources like Windows does
[15:31] <sipior> ubuspire: install the openldap tools, and you should be good to go.
[15:32] <majidd> schnuffle: ok, I'll look for it more on google
[15:32] <slipkid08> rsh: what he is getting at, is that 10.10 is not a resource hog
[15:32] <schnuffle> majidd: you could grab the sosurces and try to compile them
[15:32] <majidd> schnuffle: uhum, got it
[15:32] <slipkid08> rsh: I would recommend an upgrade ASAP
[15:32] <slipkid08> :)
[15:32] <ubuspire> sipior, ok. was hoping for guis and such. but thanks. I'll modify pam.* appropriately myself.
[15:32] <schnuffle> majidd: you could setup a vm and install woody in it, that's what I did
[15:32] <rsh> ActionParsnip, canonical shipped me 5 cds only 2 workd , ibex 2 fails to boot on my pc
[15:32] <MonkeyDust> hi, what's the exact channel name for ubuntu networks?
[15:33] <AbhijiT> MonkeyDust, ask here
[15:33] <MonkeyDust> it's not for me
[15:33] <MonkeyDust> moment
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> rsh: did you check the CDs for defects to see if they were ok?
[15:34] <sipior> ubuspire: check out LUMA if you require a gui. also, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer
[15:34] <ubuspire> sipior, thanks for the pointers.
[15:35] <rsh> ActionParsnip, yes, they r fine but they dont work. and not sure if lucid will work. and how they will never suppply me one
[15:35] <deuterium> hi, did anybody succeed to "pip install reportlab" on ubuntu 10.10? i get gcc compilation errors. the package python-reportlab that can be installed using apt works however.
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> rsh: what happened when you tried them?
[15:36] <Nevstah> if i set host information (eg fixed-address) in a dhcp subnet, why would this not be sent to the clients routing table?
[15:37] <rsh> ActionParsnip, i had 128ram when dey failed. i upgradd to 256 and then 512. and still only 2 works. and i donlt think its reasonabl upgrade 7 year old pc anymore
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> Nevstah: transmitted packets on the port would make the router (I'm guessing home grade) learn what port/mac address/IP the system is on
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> rsh: could try Lubuntu,it's light and fast :)
[15:38] <slipkid08> rsh: are you kidding me? they make 2GB sticks now, if you have 2 slots, that's 4GB...I can get them from any computer store
[15:38] <slipkid08> rsh: just FYI
[15:38] <needlez> anyone able to help with this script?? http://pastie.org/1562948

[15:39] <iceroot_> slipkid08: FYI: not every board can handle 2GB modules

[15:39] <slipkid08> oh I guess you are right
[15:39] <slipkid08> hell even two 512 would be sufficient
[15:39] <Nevstah> ActionParsnip: what i'm trying to achieve is route most traffic to 1 gateway, but certain IPs to a seperate gateway, would that not work?
[15:39] <lolcat> I just added 2GB ram to my laptop, and it works fine
[15:39] <slipkid08> I keep forgetting that certain older comps don't handle larger RAM sets
[15:40] <rumpe1> needlez, which shell? whats the problem?
[15:40] <slipkid08> I'm just trying to give rsh some hints or help in any way I can
[15:40] <rsh> slipkid08, i m sorry , ur right probbly but i told u win xp came with my pc and its messed up and i don't have legal copy. i swithced to linux to make it good .
[15:40] <eltora49> folks .. what is the maximum ram for recent HQ running Ubuntu 9.04?
[15:41] <BluesKaj> rsh , my friend run kubuntu/kde desktop on 512 ram , it's not lightning fast but it's very usable if you keep open apps to a miniumum
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> Nevstah: you can use the route command to setup manual routes
[15:41] <slipkid08> Well, that is definately a better switch
[15:41] <BluesKaj> err runs
[15:41] <needlez> the problem is that upon request of getting a new ip address, it forces me to relog in my SSID information, or account information for like JITA which is the security here.
[15:41] <Nevstah> ActionParsnip: yes, i've done that, which is fine, but i'd like to do it via dhcp for all PCs on the network if possible
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> Nevstah: then you will need to configure the central device
[15:42] <MiteshShah> how to limit cpu uses per user

[15:42] <Nevstah> ActionParsnip: central device?
[15:42] <needlez> rumpe1: not sure, its a school router here
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> Nevstah: the thing they all connect to

[15:42] <greg3000> Hi everyone!   I've used Fedora for years, and when I changed over to Ubuntu I really missed the Fedora VNC package because of the options to change color depth within the VNC window.  And when I use ubuntu's vnc to connect to a non-local server, the speed is frustratingly difficult to work with.  Anyone solved this issue by using some custom VNC client?
[15:43] <Nevstah> ActionParsnip: they are all connected to a switch, including the dhcp-server
[15:43] <sipior> Lint01: i imagine you've set your system internationalisation settings appropriately?
[15:43] <arand> eltora49: maximum? without pae, ~3.2, with pae or 64bit 64G and above 200TB respectively
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> Nevstah: then you can put stuff in the dhcp data
[15:43] <needlez> rumpe1: im guessing the school is using a CISCO or linksys router
[15:43] <rumpe1> needlez, and whats the problem with the script?

[15:44] <needlez> rumpe1: i need to add something so that I don't have to retype my SSID and password for my network everytime after the mac gets reset
[15:44] <serialized> ubuntu should have python pre installed
[15:45] <greg3000> compdoc: next time I test a connection, I'll try xtightvncviewer instead of vnc
[15:45] <Nevstah> ActionParsnip: i tried that with option routers for the specificed host in dhcpd.conf - is that wrong
[15:45] <serialized> just run using the terminal
[15:45] <greg3000> compdoc: maybe that'll do it?
[15:45] <BiPolah> Paris: The python framework and a text editor to write it.
[15:45] <rumpe1> needlez, wpa? ... hm... perhaps you should use /etc/network/interfaces + wpa_supplicant instead of network-manager...
[15:46] <BiPolah> Paris: sudo apt-get install python2.6, and then the same for bluefish/eclipse/whatever IDE you want to use. You can use gedit if you want, but IDEs like bluefish and Eclipse have syntax highlighting
[15:46] <sipior> Lint01: how/where exactly did you set the localisation?
[15:46] <BiPolah> Paris: sorry, just make that "python"
[15:46] <eltora49> arand : thanks

[15:53] <slipkid08> Is there any way to just browse packages
[15:53] <arand> sdubois: It can be done, but regard it as a temporary and unstable solution.
[15:53] <sdubois> rumpe1: there's also 2.6.37-rc1-maverick, would that be safe? http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.37-rc1-maverick/

[15:57] <ActionParsnip> lolcat: its not advised, not secure at all and not smart. If you want to make a really unsecure system, fine. Just don't tell users to do dumb stuff like that
[15:57] <rapture> rumpel, I'm considering it, but to be quite honest, I've spent so long getting MythTV to work that it seems a little depressing to start over
[15:57] <LinuxNoob> foxjaz, explain more in depth
[15:57] <LinuxNoob> maybe i can help you then
[15:57] <wolfric> System_Default_0: yes...
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> wolfric: could install acroread from adobe..
[15:58] <foxjaz> it brings up the unlock screen when I close it and it just locks.
[15:58] <needlez> rumpe1: any idea why i can't use wpa_supplicant it just won't connect its like the psk key is wrong but I know its correct.
[15:58] <System_Default_0> wolfric: OK.

[15:58] <rapture> as a student I'm afraid I do not have the cash to back up 2+TB on a regular basis
[15:58] <sipior> HanHeld: you might consider looking at "mutt", which is rather nicer
[15:59] <ActionParsnip> wolfric: there are vulnerabilities in many softwares
[15:59] <foxjaz> LinuxNoob: why would a noob be able to help, or is that sarcasm?
[15:59] <rumpe1> rapture, just for system and profiles you probably only need a few GBs...
[15:59] <LinuxNoob> actionparsnip: yes there is, thats what i want to get my job in eventually :)
[15:59] <HanHeld> sipior ok, I can do that. That should work just fine with google's pop servers?
[15:59] <rapture> I think I just need to learn the intricacies of rsync better
[15:59] <wolfric> ActionParsnip: the amount of which is a large factor in what software i use though. Orrather the frequency and severity of the  vulnerabilities found
[15:59] <needlez> rapture: couldn't you use umask to set permissions for all new files and such?? just wondering if that would help
[15:59] <LinuxNoob> foxjax: im a noob at linux, throw a windows comp in front of me and its fixed :D
[15:59] <rumpe1> rapture, depends on you
[15:59] <rapture> what does umask do?
[16:00] <foxjaz> LinuxNoob: did I say windows locks up, no I said linux locks up. Just locks up, no idea
[16:00] <rapture> I preserved symlinks, I probably just messed up on something about permissions
[16:00] <memoryleak> the only way i fix windows is reinstalling it :)
[16:00] <sipior> HanHeld: ideally, you would use getmail or the like to grab the mail and inject it locally. imap is a much better option in general; does that not work for you?
[16:00] <rapture> foxjaz, do you mean it's been on standby and then won't unlock?
[16:01] <LinuxNoob> foxjaz: but, what is ur CPU, are u on a desktop? how old is the comp, about how long till it locks up
[16:01] <LinuxNoob> i think i already know whats wrong, but i want more info
[16:01] <foxjaz> LinuxNoob: could be the fatal errors on startup, but who knows. The install of unity wasn't perfect it seems.   (yes rapture that's it)  I have a 1015PEM netbook
[16:01] <rapture> needlez, what does umask do?
[16:01] <teddyb> im trying to follow this guide:  http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/hacks/opensource/0596527209/i-0596527209-chp-1-sect-11.html but im getting stuck on the part that says "Check /etc/inetd.conf and make sure it has a line like this:" i dont seem to have /etc/inetd.conf on my ubuntu 10.10
[16:01] <sipior> HanHeld: not sure if the ubuntu version of mutt has pop3 support compiled in, but it probably does.
[16:01] <rapture> foxjaz, I used to have no end of trouble with suspend back in the day
[16:02] <HanHeld> sipior I don't know how to use imap, and I'd rather not set up an extra server. ideally I'd just put something like 'ifconfig >mail -s reboot address<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or somehting.
[16:02] <rapture> I think it was something to do with X not properly reinitialising on wake
[16:02] <rapture> but I could be totally off
[16:02] <HanHeld> sipior put that into cron or whatever so it runs on reboot
[16:02] <sipior> HanHeld: well, you wouldn't be setting up an extra server; that's the point of making use of google's impa server.
[16:02] <LinuxNoob> i still cant use sleep, hibernate or anything, locks up my screen and i cant do anything, i have to to a manual reboot
[16:02] <foxjaz> rapture: what you do?  I don't know what's up with this thing. I would like to run a repair, although I did run the update sucessfully.
[16:02] <foxjaz> LinuxNoob: yea I do the old hard reboot to get it back
[16:03] <Starminn> Is there a way to have an audio player fetch the album information like it would on Window$? I'm using Banshee, but I think it's just that I don't know what thing I'm looking for so whatever it's called in Rhythmbox would likely do.
[16:03] <HanHeld> sipior ok, I'll go read up on google's imap and see what I can figure out. Thanks. :)
[16:03] <sipior> HanHeld: have fun :-)
[16:03] <rapture> foxjaz, I stopped suspending.
[16:03] <needlez> rapture: umask, allows you to set properties for new files and folders that you install or download automatically from what my teacher was explaining. you can give it any permissions like you would give chmod but the values are different numbers but have the same effects as far as rwx rwx rwx or rw rw  rw or whatever you set them for
[16:03] <foxjaz> yea, if your hand hurts, don't bang it on the wall kinda thing
[16:03] <rapture> given how fast a modern version of ubuntu boots, foxjaz, it's barely worth it
[16:03] <LinuxNoob> foxjaz, how old is the netbook, and this problem only seems to happen in linux?

[16:06] <LinuxNoob> google?
[16:06] <rapture> There doesn't seem to be much consistency, but it's broken all sorts of things
[16:06] <ilea> if anyone wants i can post the page for that software and maybe someone can modify it to get their own country chanels

[16:06] <r\wWorld> davidgroves, symlink to it

[16:07] <Starminn> davidgroves: Create a launcher on the desktop?
[16:07] <AbhijiT> vish, lol okay wait
[16:07] <ilea> http://blog.ov1d1u.net/2010/11/tv-maxe.html
[16:07] <Starminn> davidgroves: OR symlink it, that's better, yeah
[16:07] <BiPolah> Foxjaz: Probably because it's losing signal from the previous one
[16:07] <AbhijiT> ActionParsnip, yes i can ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[16:07] <teddyb> ok thanks rapture
[16:07] <BiPolah> LinuxNoob: <IP_ADDRESS> is one of Google's DNS servers isn't it?
[16:07] <ilea> here it is a briliant software made by a romanian to watch tv
[16:07] <foxjaz> yea, that's why I am looking for an application that will keep finding and connecting to an open one
[16:07] <teddyb> hopefully someone can
[16:07] <davidgroves> starminn: what is symlink
[16:07] <LinuxNoob> bipolah: yeah, i read that if u port through them ur internet speed will increase
[16:07] <ilea> and with a plugin you can record chanels
[16:08] <BiPolah> LinuxNoob: I'm not sure how that would work, unless the DNS servers you use normally are ridiculously overloaded.
[16:08] <ActionParsnip> AbhijiT: then your DNS sucks. Run:    gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf       then delete all text and add:   nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>    save the new file and close gedit and all browsers, then restart the browser
[16:08] <rapture> teddyb, just wanted you to know you're not being ignored :)
[16:08] <ilea> but you only get romanian chanels untill someone modify's it
[16:08] <BiPolah> LinuxNoob: It wouldn't make your internet faster, it'd just be able to resolve IP addresses for you a bit quicker
[16:08] <LinuxNoob> abhijiT: where do you live? are you on the computer that u are having problems with?
[16:08] <rapture> davidgroves, it's like a shortcut
[16:08] <BiPolah> Teddyb: What's your problem?
[16:09] <BluesKaj> BiPolah, yes <IP_ADDRESS> is the primary google dns nameserver, the secondary is <IP_ADDRESS>
[16:09] <davidgroves> i do not know how to do that, i cant even find the trash can anywhere on my system
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> LinuxNoob: it's google's public DNS service, Google has many services
[16:09] <BiPolah> BluesKaj: Ah, I knew they had two. Thought it was <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>
[16:09] <foxjaz> when I try to connect to a wifi connection with a computer next to it, it locks up
[16:09] <LinuxNoob> ahhh roger that
[16:09] <foxjaz> this is replciable
[16:09] <foxjaz> LinuxNoob: locks
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> BiPolah: secondary is <IP_ADDRESS>
[16:09] <BiPolah> DavidGroves: right click on a a panel > Add to panel > Rubbish Bin
[16:09] <teddyb> bipolah: im trying to follow this guide: http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/hacks/opensource/0596527209/i-0596527209-chp-1-sect-11.html but im getting stuck on the part that says "Check /etc/inetd.conf and make sure it has a line like this:" i dont seem to have /etc/inetd.conf on my ubuntu 10.10
[16:09] <LinuxNoob> weird...
[16:09] <vish> foxjaz: ask your questions all in one line so that others can follow easily
[16:09] <rapture> shame it isn't 888444, like a posh laugh
[16:10] <AbhijiT> LinuxNoob, yes
[16:10] <LinuxNoob> vish: i was asking him more questons on top
[16:10] <ActionParsnip> AbhijiT: does it now connect ok?
[16:10] <foxjaz> vish: well I tried connecting to a wireless connection with a little computer icon next to it, and it locks my ubuntu
[16:10] <rapture> davidgroves, well normally you can add one to the menu bars by right clicking and selecting "add to panel"
[16:10] <LinuxNoob> abbhijiT: ive never had a problem with a network freezing up a comp
[16:10] <rapture> the trash can, I mean
[16:10] <BiPolah> Teddyb: It certainly exists, I'm looking at it right now. Are you sure the path is correct? Try Ctrl+H to show hidden files in case it's hidden for some reason
[16:10] <r\wWorld> rapture, he said he's on lubuntu
[16:10] <davidgroves> i found all of that but it lists no rubbish bin
[16:11] <Starminn> davidgrove: Try this: Add a launcher on your desktop and point it to Trash:///
[16:11] <davidgroves> never mind guys i see it!
[16:11] <davidgroves> thanks for your help!
[16:11] <rapture> r\wWorld, I'm not familiar with lubuntu
[16:11] <AbhijiT> ActionParsnip, yes now ok
[16:11] <Starminn> davidgroves: Awesome, happy canning
[16:11] <teddyb> bipolah : ok ill try that
[16:11] <davidgroves> starminn: haha thanks
[16:11] <paris> I download youtube-dl, but it can not download youtube file because ERROR: format not available for video
[16:12] <BiPolah> Paris: Which format?
[16:12] <LinuxNoob> weird..
[16:12] <LinuxNoob> i have no idea what youtube .exte is
[16:12] <LinuxNoob> mp4? avi maybe
[16:12] <rapture> MP4, FLV
[16:12] <rapture> sometimes others, like webm (or whatever that format's extension is)
[16:12] <DennisBagley> anyone : I have added a script to hourly cron ( /etc/cron.hourly/bup_wrap.sh chmod 700 shabang /bin/sh ) which calls a backup script ( /bup/bup.sh chmod 700, no shabang ) which contains some rsync stuff - but it does not run from cron - works ok on cli - any pointers ? or weirdness with anacron ( I normally use vixie-cron )
[16:13] <LinuxNoob> oh yeah everyone,  dont care if this is OT, but..in 3 hours, i might start liking valentines day again
[16:13] <paris> BiPolah! just youtube file, but I don't know which format is it.
[16:13] <llutz> DennisBagley: it shouldn'thave "." in its name
[16:13] <BiPolah> DennisBagley: Might I ask why you have a script to run a script?
[16:13] <llutz> DennisBagley: man run-parts
[16:13] <DennisBagley> llutz  : nice - thanks
[16:13] <needlez> DennisBagley: ask in #Bash
[16:13] <AbhijiT> hey guys how should i know if frequency scaling is enabled or not?
[16:13] <rumpe1> paris, try "file ..."
[16:14] <r\wWorld> rapture, basically it has alot of things removed, including hte launcher creator
[16:14] <LinuxNoob> haha llutz: i read that as "run man-parts"
[16:14] <LinuxNoob> i was like "wtf..does that command do"
[16:14] <AbhijiT> hey guys how should i know if frequency scaling is enabled or not
[16:14] <teddyb> bipolah: /etc/inetd.conf is it right? im not mis reading it
[16:14] <llutz> not much
[16:14] <r\wWorld> sorry about that.... i hate my evil isp
[16:14] <rapture> r\wWorld, fair enough, I was just trying to help

[16:16] <LinuxNoob> "bash: help: no help tomics match 'love'.
[16:16] <LinuxNoob> linux u have failed me :(
[16:16] <SeanHeron> I have a question regarding invoking "sed" - specifically on how to get it to find all *.lua files in all subfolders (ie rather than using ./* which opens all text files in all subfolders). If someone can point me to a different channel where the question is more appropriate, that'd be fine as well :P.
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> paris: use youtube-dl
[16:16] <Pici> TheAnarchist:  Try #fedora
[16:16] <BiPolah> teddyb: That's what I can see. I just checked the guide which says /etc/init.d/initd, which doesn't exist for me.
[16:16] <Logan_WP> !fedora | TheAnarchist
[16:16] <TheAnarchist> #fedora
[16:16] <vish> paris: did you update flash recently? (how were you doing it previously?)
[16:16] <needlez> TheAnarchist: ask in #Fedora
[16:17] <MindPhreak> server irc.icq.com
[16:17] <Pici> SeanHeron: How about something like:  find /path/to/files -iname "*.lua" -exec sed s/whatever/whatever/ -i {}\;
[16:17] <paris> vish! I have just install a new ubuntu 10.4
[16:17] <ActionParsnip> !info youtube-dl | paris
[16:18] <SeanHeron> sounds good - more involved than stuff I've been doing, but happy to copy and paste :). Thanks!
[16:18] <LinuxNoob> what is the difference really between ubuntu and other distro's my instructor in school uses SUSE, my other uses redhat. what is much difference, i want to end up being a Network Admin, CCNA, CCIE, he said suse would be good for me, anyone can clear this up?
[16:18] <Starminn> LinuxNoob: Try 'em and see. ;)
[16:18] <vish> paris: well, if have 10.04 with flash 10.1 you dont need extra downloaders, if you are using firefox the files will be in your /tmp folder
[16:18] <snapp> i have installed ubuntu server on partition lvm, and when i try to boot system installed, i get this message error: out of disk error: you need to load the kernel first
[16:18] <llutz> !ot | LinuxNoob
[16:18] <ActionParsnip> LinuxNoob: they are all essentially the same OS, Linux. Just the differences are default WM/DE and package management system
[16:18] <compdoc> they all are slighty different. how you configure things differ. get whatevr youre used to
[16:19] <maco> LinuxNoob: overall there's a red hat way of doing things and a debian way.  rh way has rpm and puts lots of stuff in /etc/sysconfig/    debian way uses dpkg and doesn't move things from default locations to /etc/sysconfig/   -- really, you should know both
[16:19] <LinuxNoob> well im not really "used" to anything, im only on day like...7 or so actually
[16:19] <Logan_WP> !server | snapp
[16:19] <DennisBagley> llutz : I owe you one - that worked - or at least I am now getting something back from run-parts --list
[16:19] <needlez> LinuxNoob: not really too much difference between them, but there are some things that are automatically installed in ubuntu, that arent in redhat, or suse and vice versa. personally for network working I'd suggest BT4
[16:19] <vish> !ot | LinuxNoob maco
[16:20] <AbhijiT> hey guys there are two packages to deal with hidden processos. whats their names?
[16:20] <llutz> DennisBagley: common mistake to name shell-scripts .sh and trying to get them run in /etc/cron.xxx
[16:20] <compdoc> ubuntu is nice for desktops
[16:20] <ActionParsnip> AbhijiT: ps -ef | less
[16:20] <AbhijiT> ActionParsnip, no they are softwres.
[16:21] <bobg> i am writing a custom package for my company that sets the debconf values for ldap-auth-config -- what's the best channel to get help with that?
[16:21] <LinuxNoob> i use it on my laptop, no problems, except for i wish i woulda dl'd the 64bit version, cause it seems like icant open nearly as many processes as before, when i was using win7x64
[16:21] <ActionParsnip> compdoc: so are many of the other distros with an X interface....
[16:21] <AbhijiT> and they are in software center i installed them. but i dont know their name to use it
[16:21] <Arandiel> hi
[16:21] <DennisBagley> llutz : I am now woried as to how many scripts I think are running that are not - hey ho - live and learn
[16:21] <ActionParsnip> AbhijiT: ps is a software, it is a command like any other
[16:21] <memoryleak> is there a way to remove the unwanted software automatically installed by ubuntu? for example Openoffice
[16:21] <_ProGammer> hey
[16:21] <Arandiel> anybody good in grub rescue?
[16:21] <jpds> AbhijiT: rkhunter?
[16:21] <AbhijiT> ActionParsnip, okay but..... the two i am talking about ps is not one of them!
[16:21] <AbhijiT> jpds, exactly!
[16:22] <ActionParsnip> memoryleak: sure, just remove it like other packages
[16:22] <AbhijiT> jpds, and ther is one more?
[16:22] <_ProGammer> is there anyway to running /bin/sh and also have current directory prompt ?!
[16:22] <jpds> AbhijiT: chkrootkit.
[16:22] <vish> memoryleak: you have to install them one by one
[16:22] <AbhijiT> jpds, wow!!! yes yes those two only!! :D
[16:22] <vish> memoryleak: err, i meant remove :d
[16:22] <prod_> Can anyone help me with a workaround for NFS and wireless. Have issues with shutdown/restart. TIA
[16:22] <_ProGammer> is there anyway to running /bin/sh and also have current directory prompt ?!
[16:22] <AbhijiT> ActionParsnip, its rkhunter and chkrootkit!
[16:22] <memoryleak> ActionParsnip: But if i remember correctly, it would remove too much other packages
[16:22] <LinuxNoob> is it actually good that i know how to write batch files, n stuff? is this actually a useful "language" to know? how to work command prompt? helps out alot when im trying to figure out stuff in terminal.
[16:22] <LinuxNoob> they are so much diffferent, yet the same
[16:23] <ActionParsnip> memoryleak: if you remove openoffice it wont remove anything which openoffice doesn't use
[16:23] <maco> LinuxNoob: i thought batch files were for windows... i think you mean bash scripts. and yes, any sysadmin worth their salt had better know how
[16:23] <jpds> AbhijiT: Cool. :)
[16:23] <LinuxNoob> alright :D
[16:23] <_ProGammer> Hello,
[16:23] <_ProGammer> is there anyway to running /bin/sh and also have current directory prompt ?!
[16:24] <BiPolah> !repeat | _ProGammer
[16:24] <LinuxNoob> maco: well, i learned on windows lol, so i think of anything i do in linux as how it relates to windows, kinda like native language and one ur speaking,  i hear in linux, and try to translate to windows, kinda hard x_X
[16:24] <Pici> _ProGammer: Set a $PS1
[16:24] <_ProGammer> thank you
[16:24] <needlez> ProGrammer: please explain what you mean, do you mean that you want to run the file that is in /bin/sh from anywhere ?? or am i wrong?
[16:24] <_ProGammer> can you please tell me  How ?
[16:25] <SeanHeron> @Pici - thanks that worked fine!
[16:25] <Pici> SeanHeron: Great!
[16:25] <_ProGammer> when im running /bin/sh
[16:25] <needlez> ProGammer: yes, first add #! /bin/sh to top of the script
[16:25] <_ProGammer> i have shell but i dont have the current directory prompt
[16:26] <needlez> ProGammer: then if you chmod the file to 4755 it will not require root priveleges to run it anymore and chmod 777 to excute the command
[16:27] <_ProGammer> i have sh terminal in my own project
[16:27] <bobg> _ProGammer, you need to set an environment var that controls what is displayed on the prompt -- google or man the shell to find out details
[16:27] <_ProGammer> an editor
[16:27] <needlez> ProGammer: first cd to the /bin/sh and then sudo gedit the script and then chmod the script file. then you will be able to open that bash script anywhere in the terminal

[16:28] <prod_> Can anyone help me with a workaround for NFS and wireless. Have issues with shutdown/restart. Using Lucid, have googled all day so far without any working fixes. TIA
[16:29] <Starminn> How do I get a media player in Linux to automatically complete the meta data (as opposed to "Track1, Track2, etc...")
[16:29] <PsyMan> 1. i had a hard time installing 10.10 on this machine but i noticed that the graphical installer live cd actually booted as alternate the installer one
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> Starminn: you can use easytag and tag them, or use simple bash scripting to tag multiple files as you want
[16:29] <maco> Starminn: usually if you're online when you rip the cd, and if the cd is in the Music Brainz db, it should happen automatically
[16:29] <PsyMan> so i wonder if pressing a kb button triggers that
[16:30] <Pici> PsyMan: The alternate installer isn't even present on the LiveCD
[16:30] <Starminn> ActionParsnip: I know of it and actually have it, as well, I curious regarding how various Windows programs do so.
[16:30] <PsyMan> 2. i had some issues so far and i wondered if the bugs are known
[16:30] <Starminn> maco: Ah, alright, I suppose it just wasn't in the database. *shrug* Thanks.
[16:30] <PsyMan> Pici: yeah, that's why i don't know what happened
[16:30] <Pici> PsyMan: Are you sure that you have the LiveCD?
[16:31] <maco> Starminn: sound juicer and amarok definitely do that. i think rhythmbox and banshee as well... so unless you used some fairly uncommon app...yeah, that'd be my guess
[16:31] <PsyMan> gfx installer died and after a reboot i got s screen that seemed like the alternate one, worked like it too
[16:31] <PsyMan> :p
[16:31] <maco> Starminn: sound juicer lets you fill it in and then submit it to music brainz. dont think the others do that
[16:31] <PsyMan> *a screen
[16:32] <teddyb> bipolah ok ive tried everywhere i could think of and did a search for inetd.conf and still cant find it :( im wondering could it be etc/init/tftpd-hpa.conf on my pc? whats in your inetd.conf file?
[16:32] <Starminn> maco: I'm using Banshee. All the music I've played thus far I had already named from when I used Windows (which I usually had to edit by hand since it got them wrong very frequently anyway), so that's alright. I can accept that I have an uncommon taste in music. *shrug*
[16:33] <ActionParsnip> Starminn: not sure, I use spotify now so don't have much local music now
[16:33] <Silex> how do I run apache under another user?
[16:33] <Starminn> ActionParsnip: Fair enough, thanks for the attempt. :)
[16:33] <PsyMan> as for the bugs, if someone here is related to the distro's development, i could fill a bug report
[16:33] <Starminn> Silex: Add that user to the apache group?
[16:33] <PsyMan> like, in here :p
[16:34] <Silex> Starminn: well, atm apache runs with www-data:www-data
[16:35] <llutz> Silex: User/Group  in /etc/apache2/apache.conf

[16:35] <frans__> Liang..

[16:36] <prod_> Hi really need help with NFS mounts on my lappy, Im having trouble when rebooting/shutting down. Have read a few bug reports and tryed workarounds but have had no luck. TIA
[16:36] <Silex> llutz: thanks
[16:36] <lostern> erUSUL, sipior: bad blocks on a disk
[16:36] <jschall> so apparently to watch youtube videos i need to upgrade my flash player 10 to flash player 10.
[16:36] <sipior> lostern:  i know what you meant.
[16:36] <lostern> erUSUL, sipior: What is the use case where it offers protection?
[16:36] <sipior> lostern: disk failure.
[16:36] <erUSUL> lostern: a disk failure
[16:37] <lostern> sipior, erUSUL: Define disk failure
[16:37] <compdoc> drives die all the time
[16:37] <compdoc> bad sectors to complete failure
[16:37] <sipior> lostern: seriously? a disk that is no longer among us? has passed on? joined the choir invisible?
[16:37] <catphish> lostern: where a disk fails and refuses to read a block of data
[16:38] <ActionParsnip> prod_: when you shutdown, add a command to unmount the NFS
[16:38] <catphish> lostern: luckily disks very rarely return corrupt data
[16:38] <catphish> normally they just die
[16:38] <tim167> hello, i have a 'Marble Mouse', and i want to remap the second mouse button to act like a middle mouse button, how do i do that ? thanks!
[16:38] <tim167> http://www.vdhsoft.be/img_art/19164.gif
[16:38] <prod_> ActionParsnip: could you elaborate please
[16:38] <lostern> sipior: I try to write to a block and that data is not faithfully written to the disk. Is that disk failure?
[16:39] <catphish> faithfully?
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> prod_: well, if you don't mount the NFS, is it ok to reboot etc>
[16:39] <sipior> lostern: i would say it is a sign of impending failure, yes.
[16:39] <sipior> lostern: is there a point to this sophistry?
[16:39] <lostern> sipior: Does RAID-1 offer protection in that case?
[16:39] <compdoc> theres an easy way to see if your drive is failing
[16:39] <catphish> if the data is not written to the disk, then the disk should report a wrote failure
[16:39] <rangerpb> anyone aware of a way to use apt-cache to display package licenses?
[16:39] <itguru> I'm trying to connect to the remote web interface of my NAS via my desktop, which I have a direct SSH connection to - I use the following, ssh -L 1000:remotenaslocalIP:80 user@remote - when I connect, I get an SSL error in my browser, am I doing something wrong?
[16:39] <catphish> lostern: and the disk would be marked as failes
[16:39] <jschall> hey, youtube stopped working. "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video."
[16:39] <prod_> ActionParsnip: yes all is fine when i dont have NFS mounted. I have my home directory mounted.
[16:39] <sipior> lostern: not reliable protection, no.
[16:39] <lostern> sipior: The point to my "sophistry" is to determine what RAID-1 protects me against and what it doesn't
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> compdoc: there is the ultimate boot cd with most of the manufacturers test tools
[16:40] <frans__> quit???
[16:40] <ActionParsnip> prod_: then add a command to unmount the NFS when you logoff
[16:40] <catphish> raid1 does not verify data integrity, only handles a disk that refuses to read or write data
[16:40] <jschall> hmm. guess it's chromium that got messed up.
[16:40] <lostern> catphish: Thanks. Does RAID-5 offer integrity?
[16:40] <catphish> afaik no RAID level does
[16:40] <thangavel> does anyone know how to upgrade ubuntu by cds??
[16:40] <erUSUL> lostern: for data integrity you need a fs that does data checksuming ( or a esdternal program )
[16:41] <catphish> you would need n+2 to get data integrity
[16:41] <prod_> ActionParsnip, If i try to umount I get error. Device in use or something along those lines
[16:41] <erUSUL> external*
[16:41] <catphish> raid6 maybe
[16:41] <basy> hi when i run top i don't like used mem size [Mem:  20597012k total, 20407820k used,   189192k free,   154116k buffers] , but when i sum used mem by "ps " it says that i use 22219324B it is 4.5% , Any ideas why top shows so high mem usage ???
[16:41] <frans__> i don't know about irc!
[16:41] <compdoc> a few things can cause data corruption that have nothign to do with a drive failure
[16:41] <lostern> Anyone know the performance penalty of btfrs with checksumming?
[16:41] <schnuffle> basy: free ram is used for caching
[16:41] <christian_lappy> bastidrazor: please post free -m output
[16:41] <catphish> hashing every block of data you read from 3 separate disks is going to be very slow
[16:41] <catphish> but you could theoretically do it
[16:42] <prod_> ActionParsnip, From all the googling i did this morning it seems that Network-manager is closing before umount-nfs
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> prod_: hmm, then you can force the unmount or check what is in use with: lsof      to see how it is in use
[16:42] <catphish> it *may* be possible with raid6 but i've never tried it
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> prod_: that'd do it
[16:42] <erUSUL> lostern: btrfs is not propbably ready for prime time but it has raid1 and checksuming built in.
[16:42] <lostern> erUSUL: But what is the performance penalty of checksumming?
[16:43] <jsn> hie all!! actually wen i play a video file then  sound comes but video is missing...can anybody help??
[16:43] <erUSUL> lostern: no idea
[16:43] <catphish> checksumming would work at a filesystem level
[16:43] <prod_> But i have tryed all the HowTo's without success. Some tuts were specific to older ubuntu so im really lost
[16:43] <Smiley> Can anyone tell me how to check what package provides some files?
[16:43] <Smiley> sudo ldapadd -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -f /etc/ldap/schema/cosine.ldif
[16:43] <Smiley> sudo ldapadd -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -f /etc/ldap/schema/nis.ldif
[16:43] <Smiley> sudo ldapadd -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -f /etc/ldap/schema/inetorgperson.ldif
[16:43] <ActionParsnip> prod_: if you make ~/.bash_logout  the command will run at logoff, this should be before nm stops
[16:43] <Smiley> those files for exampl;e?
[16:43] <sipior> lostern: how about testing it and letting us know? given that btrfs is still in heavy development, any numbers you get would be rapidly out of date in any event.
[16:43] <FloodBot2> Smiley: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:43] <catphish> and combined with raid1 you could drop a drive that failed a sum check
[16:44] <arand> msg ubottu !find /etc/ldap/schema/cosine.ldif
[16:44] <Pici> arand: you missed ;)
[16:44] <lostern> sipior: I thought btfrs was close to being stable
[16:45] <Smiley> ty arand
[16:45] <schnuffle> lostern: it' used in android
[16:45] <erUSUL> Smiley: dpkg -S /path/to/file
[16:45] <prod_> ActionParsnip: Im goin to go and have a look at that file now. Im not a ubuntu power user so im not quite sure i know what youmean
[16:45] <arand> Smiley: You can message the bot: /msg ubottu !find /etc/ldap/schema/cosine.ldif
[16:45] <Smiley> weird.
[16:45] <Smiley> yeah I did.... i've removed and reinstalled slapd, and it didn't put that file in :|
[16:45] <sipior> lostern: i think that's optimistic, but i've heard rumblings.
[16:45] <Smiley> root@admin1:/etc/ldap# ls /etc/ldap/schema/
[16:45] <Smiley> root@admin1:/etc/ldap#
[16:46] <lostern> So would anyone recommend RAID-1 for a desktop or should I just use the second disk for backups?
[16:46] <sipior> lostern: use the second disk. and use another external disk which is not stored anywhere near the computer. raid is not the same as a backup.
[16:47] <lostern> sipior: I know the difference.
[16:47] <sipior> lostern: if you did, you wouldn't have asked the question you just did.
[16:47] <h-dee> jsn: what are you doing?
[16:47] <Mossyfunk> Hello. I used the 10.10 mini iso and installed the rest of the system with apt-get now when I start synaptic it tells me i am using the wrong password... but I can use it to sudo fine
[16:48] <Smiley> arand: any idea why reinstalling the package didn't restore the file?
[16:48] <jsn> h-dee:wat?
[16:48] <openSUSEkorisnik> So how that in Ubuntu devices (USB ,and other extern memory) was auto mounted and on opensuse I need to do it mannually with SU rights -.- ?
[16:48] <lostern> sipior: Maybe it wasn't clear but I meant RAID in addition to infrequent offsite backups or frequent backups + infrequent offsite backups instead of RAID
[16:49] <tiptop2> hello, is there a way of transferring OS updates from one computer to another?
[16:49] <sipior> lostern: it wasn't clear, but i'm glad you meant that :-)
[16:49] <ActionParsnip> Mossyfunk: is software centre ok?
[16:49] <schnuffle> Smiley: reinstalling keeps the configs. purge the package to delete the config as wel
[16:49] <rcmaehl> Hey how do I force my linux pc to halt?
[16:49] <Smiley> apt-get purge slapd?
[16:49] <lostern> rcmaehl: halt? poweroff?
[16:49] <lduros> rcmaehl: sudo halt -- should work not?
[16:49] <prod_> ActionParsnip: wat should i do to this file?
[16:49] <compdoc> rcmaehl, shutdown now -h   ?
[16:50] <rcmaehl> None of those work
[16:50] <compdoc> sudo
[16:50] <rcmaehl> it like pauses the pc but it doesn't power off
[16:50] <andycc> rcmaehl: kick the power button?
[16:50] <tiptop2> if not updates, at least can I copy packages installed in one computer to another? such as gimp from one 10.04 machine toanother with the same version?
[16:50] <lduros> rcmaehl: did you use sudo?
[16:50] <Smiley> yey thank you schnuffle you've restored some of my faith in the world :)
[16:50] <rcmaehl> YEs

[16:58] <JesperFFF> Whats the best way to make a media server for ps3?
[16:58] <bonjoyee> jsn: what kind of video? have you installed the ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[16:58] <tiptop2> schnuffle what is PCI darc?
[16:59] <JesperFFF> jrib, playstation3 media server. And just other stuff in general :)
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> jsn: does it happen in all players? Do you have the restricted extras installed and w32codecs from medibuntu?
[16:59] <JesperFFF> jrib, every time i try to install something with wine, it says its not executable
[16:59] <schnuffle> tiptop2: i meant card :)
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> JesperFFF: try using playonlinux
[16:59] <jsn> ny video files..like avi..n i haven installd ny ubuntu-restricted areas
[16:59] <litusu> hi i am new to irc
[16:59] <jrib> JesperFFF: make it executable :)  Though honestly I'd recommend using wine as a last resort; look for native linux alternatives
[17:00] <tiptop2> schnuffle it is on the motherboard
[17:00] <isilion> hi!! when i browse to my domain ( www.terceraola.com ) y end seeing my ip on the address. why? I have changed /etc/hosts adding a line "m.y.i.p www.terceraola.com" :S
[17:00] <jsn> bonjoyee:ny video files..like avi..n i haven installd ny ubuntu-restricted areas
[17:00] <ActionParsnip> jsn: run: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras    I assume ubuntu and not kubuntu or xubuntu
[17:00] <JesperFFF> ActionParsnip, think i got a link for ps3 media server for ubuntu in here once.. but i cant find it anymore :/
[17:00] <bonjoyee> jsn: then you have to install the necessary codecs..for it to play the avi files..
[17:00] <ActionParsnip> jsn: also run the BIG command here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu   and install w32codecs
[17:00] <JesperFFF> jrib, How do i make it executable? :p
[17:00] <schnuffle> tiptop2: is it a industrial pc?
[17:01] <jrib> JesperFFF: right click -> properties (or use chmod +x in a shell)
[17:01] <[4-tea-2]> Howdy. The main (top) Gnome panel on my system "freezes", ie. it isn't updated anymore, the clock is stuck at some point in the past, but menus still work. Known problem? Any advice how to resolve it?
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> [4-tea-2]: try:  killall gnome-panel
[17:01] <jsn> ActtionParsnip:it is happening in all players.from where i will get dis w3codecs
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> [4-tea-2]: what release are you using?
[17:01] <isilion> hi!! when i browse to my domain ( www.terceraola.com ) y end seeing my ip on the address. why? I have changed /etc/hosts adding a line "m.y.i.p www.terceraola.com" :S
[17:01] <[4-tea-2]> ActionParsnip: When I resize the panel (using the Properties dialog), it resumes.
[17:01] <tiptop2> schuffle, the "Editing wired connection" tab  shows a blank tab asking for Mac address, I can't find out.   It is AMD Geode SDK
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> jsn: use the medibuntu link I gave
[17:01] <[4-tea-2]> ActionParsnip: Maverick
[17:01] <solenoid> question:  I have an application that needs to be started after bootup is completed, and it needs to run as a particular user (it breaks if run as root) - (it's been years since i've needed to do this).
[17:02] <bonjoyee> !codecs | jsn
[17:02] <ActionParsnip> [4-tea-2]: are there any bugs logged and are you fully updated?
[17:02] <tiptop2> schnuffle said something in the room mispelling your name as schuffle
[17:02] <jrib> solenoid: what application?
[17:02] <solenoid> oop, im on 10.10
[17:02] <JesperFFF> jrib, thanks!
[17:02] <solenoid> razuna
[17:02] <isilion> hi!! when i browse to my domain ( www.terceraola.com ) y end seeing my ip on the address. why? I have changed /etc/hosts adding a line "m.y.i.p www.terceraola.com" :S
[17:02] <jrib> solenoid: you want this to run before you login?  It's some sort of terminal application?
[17:02] <[4-tea-2]> ActionParsnip: haven't checked and yes
[17:02] <tiptop2> schnuffle  schuffle, the "Editing wired connection" tab  shows a blank tab asking for Mac address, I can't find out.   It is AMD Geode SDK
[17:02] <ActionParsnip> tiptop2: use tab to complete names
[17:03] <solenoid> sorry, I should be more clear, its starting up a tomcat instance
[17:03] <tiptop2> ActionParsnip,  thanks for the great tip
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> [4-tea-2]: i'd have a look, it may be a known issue. Are you using desktop effects?
[17:03] <solenoid> and yes, I need it up w/o logging in
[17:03] <jrib> solenoid: well you can use your user's crontab (use @reboot).  Is that sufficient?
[17:03] <schnuffle> tiptop2: apparently the chip you mentioned is some embed combined switch/controller, will have to google to sort out
[17:03] <[4-tea-2]> ActionParsnip: yes, the full compiz monty, and I'm also using "avant-window-navigator"
[17:04] <solenoid> jrib: ahh, I had not thought to try in that direction
[17:04] <ActionParsnip> [4-tea-2]: tried without compiz? close AWN first though
[17:04] <x_> exit
[17:04] <[4-tea-2]> ActionParsnip: no, because I don't consider working without compiz an option. ;)
[17:04] <Pumpkin-> solenoid: su -c or @reboot in that users crontab would be what I'd do.
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> [4-tea-2]: well you need to test to see if it is the thing causing the issue,  don't you. Its reversible, it's just to test
[17:05] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  or is it a simple problem of not defining the MAC address?  I don't know how to find the MAC address ifconfig does not show MAC address, it shows inet address etc
[17:06] <ActionParsnip> [4-tea-2]: if you don't test you will never find what is at fault will you
[17:06] <solenoid> jrib: Pumpkin- let me try this out, will get back here in a few
[17:06] <schnuffle> tiptop2: not really sure, try sudo insmod ks8842
[17:07] <[4-tea-2]> ActionParsnip: from a developer pov, that's definitely correct. From a user pov, I hoped for a "been there, do this" kinda response. ;)
[17:07] <schnuffle> tiptop2: apparently there're module paramter to set te mac
[17:08] <squig> any ideas how i can get a script to run before any other scripts in the boot process, i am new to the upstart methdology
[17:08] <rapture> hmm, I can't seem to force a distro upgrade
[17:08] <[4-tea-2]> ActionParsnip: if the solution for my problem is "don't use compiz", I'd rather not use gnome-panel, so as a user, I don't care if gnome-panel works without compiz, and I don't expect to be writing a bug report for this issue.
[17:08] <squig> or is there a script that runs on shutdown
[17:09] <jrib> squig: why?
[17:09] <tiptop2> schnuffle, sudo  insmod KSZ8842 returns "no such file or directory"
[17:10] <schnuffle> tiptop2: sudo  insmod ks8842
[17:10] <squig> jrib I have a heap of machines that I am auto installing and then configuring cfengine with, but the hostname options gets set as ubuntu by the install, I can fix it by removing /etc/hostname before dhcpcd3 starts
[17:10] <squig> on the initial boot
[17:10] <schnuffle> tiptop2: maybe type sudo lsmod | grep 8842
[17:12] <tiptop2> sudo lsmod | grep 8842 returns a blank line
[17:12] <tiptop2> schnuffle, sudo lsmod | grep 8842 returns a blank line

[17:13] <jrib> squig: I see. So this is the sort of thing you just want to happen once?
[17:14] <[4-tea-2]> energyspirit: $3 gives you about 30s of support on this channel. Please set up a premium subscription for your problem.
[17:14] <jrib> squig: to actually answer your question, you might want to checkout #upstart and the upstart docs (see ubottu). I'm a bit curious about what you are doing though
[17:14] <squig> jrib yes just on the computers very first inital boot, the script can remove it self after that. right now its actually fine for it to happen every boot but there is no need for it

[17:24] <prod_> Still cant make sense of my problem, I am using a laptop with ubuntu 10.4 desktop and have mounted my home directory with NFS share from my ubuntu 10.4 server. My laptop is wifi only and I am guessing as my home directory is a NFS share i cant umount before i log out. My problem is when i shutdown/restart my lappy it doesnt actually shutdown. So far i have worked out that my network manager is shutting down before umountnfs.

[17:28] <[4-tea-2]> prod_: do you think there would be bad effects if you didn't unmount NFS at all? I don't think the server would care. mv /etc/init.d/umountnfs.sh /etc/init.d/umountnfs.sh-disabled ?
[17:28] <bc81> pauru: did you reboot yet?  try metacity --replace and/or compiz --replace
[17:28] <[4-tea-2]> prod_: erm. sudo mv ...
[17:28] <Pumpkin-> Fidelix: d indicates directory, then 421. So rwxr-xr-x is (4+2+1), (4+1), (4+1) = 755
[17:28] <prod_> 4-tea-2: thats an ace iidea
[17:28] <pauru> bc81 Yeap i've rebooted but not the replace commands
[17:29] <mtkorb> When I get to the login screen on Ubuntu 10.04, it's printing "MASQUERADE: lo ate my IP address" over and over. Anyone know what this means?
[17:29] <pauru> bc81, what should i try first?
[17:29] <bc81> pauru: no matter
[17:29] <Fidelix> Pumpkin-, thanks!
[17:29] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  sudo ifconfig

[17:30] <pauru> bc81 so, what should i do now?
[17:30] <[4-tea-2]> prod_: I'm not sure whether it works - and it will only work until the package "initscripts" is updated, but it's worth a shot as a workaround.
[17:31] <bc81> pauru: run one of theose commands?
[17:31] <[4-tea-2]> prod_: I had a view at the scripts, I assume it won't help, the machine will probably just hang in the umountfs script instead.
[17:31] <prod_> 4-tea-2: A workaround will do for now and ill save that command for next time its updated/watever
[17:31] <prod_> dammit :S
[17:32] <schnuffle> tiptop2: hmm, I don't know where to go further cause google isn't very responsive
[17:32] <pauru> bc81, i've tried metacity --replace but it seems like it is not done
[17:33] <prod_> any other suggestions? Maybe changing the shutdown order? I have followed a few bug reports and workarounds but im just not skilled enough to understand the more complicated ones
[17:33] <bc81> pauru: i dont know, try another theme maybe, see if that helps
[17:33] <[4-tea-2]> prod_: the better way might be a script in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d
[17:34] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  bit.ly/euuXUj shows the schematics  Pleaser acknowldge if u receive this I was blocked for a while for pasting
[17:34] <[4-tea-2]> prod_: have a look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NetworkManager#Network_Services_with_NetworkManager_Dispatcher
[17:34] <[4-tea-2]> (archlinux because that's the first hit Google came up with *g)

[17:35] <[4-tea-2]> prod_: good luck!
[17:35] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  is there a way of finding MAC address?
[17:35] <skoty> is there anyone that can answer a question for me?
[17:36] <bc81> !anyone | skoty
[17:36] <schnuffle> tiptop2: as far as I read the doc you have to set one
[17:37] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  how do I set mac address?
[17:37] <schnuffle> tiptop2: don't know
[17:38] <xrcism> s/ irc.undernet.net 6667
[17:38] <xrcism> hmm

[17:39] <SmoothMover> Does Ubuntu have a WEb Cam service?
[17:39] <schnuffle> tiptop2: try, but i tink it won't work
[17:40] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  interfaces shows just two lines "auto lo; iface lo inet loopback" Doesn't say anything about dhcp
[17:40] <SmoothMover> Why is that?
[17:41] <JesperFFF> Anyone know whats the best way to make a media server for ps3
[17:41] <schnuffle> tiptop2: before you can use your network card, you need to initialize it, and your hardware is not just a network card its a embed thing with to adapters and a switch, so normal setup won't work
[17:42] <SmoothMover> I - understand that - FW config and app sharing the issue - seems to be sorted tho.
[17:42] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  i will make an attempt saying iface lo dhcop hardware address 01:  to 06
[17:42] <SmoothMover> Yahoo messanger is DOS - I wondered if there was a plugin that worked for Ubuntu Firefox
[17:43] <schnuffle> tiptop2: you don't get it lo is loopback device, your hardware doesn't show up, so you can't configure it
[17:43] <DandyKoffin> my webcam is not working in flash, but works with Cheese. Would someone please help me?
[17:44] <llutz> tiptop2: you don't want to mess with "lo" if you don't know what you're doing. It likely will break things
[17:44] <corgan_> i have a driver in the form of a tarball, how do i get it up and running in ubuntu 10.10...the driver is for my wireless card that ubuntu doesn't recognize
[17:44] <llutz> corgan_: extract it, read readme
[17:45] <DandyKoffin> how do I get my webcam to work on flash sites?
[17:46] <Dwade09> what are the best channels for wifi? like 4&?
[17:46] <tiptop2> llutz thanks, I just now redefined /etc/network/interfaces with auto eth0
[17:46] <tiptop2> iface eth0 inet dhcp
[17:46] <tiptop2>        hwaddress ether 01:02:03:04:05:06 and said etc init.d restart
[17:46] <DandyKoffin> could someone please help me out?
[17:46] <ss> 你们好
[17:46] <kwtm> How do I open attachments from MS Outlook email messages in Evolution? It shows up as a "winmail.dat" attachment in my email.
[17:47] <corgan_> llutz, i don't understand the readme file
[17:47] <kwtm> ss: Ni hao!  Are you able to use English?  Not many people use Chinese here.
[17:47] <corgan_> i am linux illliterate

[17:48] <openSUSEkorisnik> Anyone know any screenlet for HDD I/O for gnome?
[17:48] <stianhj> corgan_, probable ./configure, then make, and make install
[17:48] <kwtm> I guess it does look like "ch" is Chinese.... :)  (What does it really stand for, anyway?  Something like "Confederation of Helvetica" or something like that)
[17:48] <llutz> !compile | corgan_
[17:48] <DandyKoffin> HELP ME!
[17:48] <lolcat> Ch == Chineese
[17:48] <llutz> !checkinstall | corgan_
[17:48] <stianhj> ch is Switzerland
[17:48] <Aube> Im trying to put linux on a older laptop....Dell Latitude c600, 600mghz, 256mb ram...anyone have a recomendation for what version ishould use that will install on the hard drive?
[17:49] <openSUSEkorisnik> puppy linux :D
[17:49] <lolcat> Aube: Debian
[17:49] <stianhj> Aube, lubuntu.. lubuntu.net
[17:49] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  I don't understand, but understand from what you say that my hw has a serious limitation... there is something peculiar, the Edit connections on 10.04, wired tab does not show the apply button when anything is entered on the mac address field;
[17:49] <kwtm> corgan_: As a semi-noob, I'd have to say that it might be a bit intimidating working with a tarball... be prepared to read a lot of instructions before you feel comfortable doing it.  Now, having said that, generally the steps are straightforward.
[17:50] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  and on the top bar, i only see mobile brandbarnd and vpn connections as options
[17:50] <arand> Aube: I would go for lubuntu or debian if they work, otherwise resort to puppy linux/slitaz/tinycore
[17:50] <corgan_> kwtm, with check install what to i type before "checkinstall? llutz
[17:50] <Aube> I had a hell of a time getting the drivers to get the wireless card to work for windows 2000
[17:51] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  so I think I should give up this hardwar3e
[17:51] <llutz> corgan_: read what ubottu gave you, some usefull basics
[17:51] <JesperFFF> Hey guys. Anyone of u know the best software for creating a media server for ps3? :)
[17:51] <schnuffle> tiptop2: the header file has a struct macaddr, so you could try to load the kernel module and give it a macaddr=AA:BB:CC:EE to see if the device comes up
[17:51] <kwtm> corgan_: I'm afraid I can't help; I am not familiar with checkinstall.
[17:51] <llutz> corgan_: what driver is it, where did you get it from?
[17:51] <corgan_> i did llutz....but that link requires me to know something else
[17:51] <kwtm> corgan_: Maybe if you give the name of your hardware, and which version of Ubuntu etc., someone might be able to find a precompiled driver for you.
[17:51] <arand> Aube: It will likely be a similar time with GNU/Linux, unless you are lucky
[17:52] <ssimons1> what can i do to help a student who lost their downloaded os from msdnaa
[17:52] <ssimons1> ?
[17:52] <kwtm> Okay, I guess no one can answer my question, so bye for now!  I'll check again later.
[17:52] <corgan_> i got it from the manufacturers website
[17:52] <Aube> Hmm bummer... well itll give me something to do at least
[17:52]  * kirilos_AwAy is away: Gone away for now
[17:52] <corgan_> ubuntu 10.10 , ralink 5390
[17:52] <llutz> corgan_: nice, do you think this is a quiz-show?
[17:52] <corgan_> wireless adapter llutz
[17:53] <bc81> ssimons1: can you provide more details, please?
[17:53] <corgan_> why do you ask ? :(
[17:53] <ssimons1> nevermind
[17:53] <corgan_> llutz, what did i do?
[17:54] <s093294> I just compiled OpenCV on my ubuntu dist, when i make a app and include <cv.h> it says it cant find it, so i add -I \usr\local\include\opencv\ to the compiler flags and it compiles,  cant it be added so it always know where it is
[17:54] <llutz> corgan_: are you using 32 or 64 bit? uname -m
[17:54] <corgan_> what do i type before check install
[17:54] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  how do i load the kernel module and give it the mac address? and before that i just edited /etc/network/interfaces with 01:02:03:04:05:06  and restarted /etc/init.d/networking  should i change this to AA:BB:CC:EE  (or AA:BB:CC:DD:EE -- DD was missing in what you typd) before goiong to kernel?
[17:54] <corgan_> can someone give me some steps?
[17:54] <llutz> corgan_: i'm just trying to do, if you would answer the questions
[17:54] <corgan_> llutz, 32 bit
[17:55] <corgan_> i just did?
[17:55] <corgan_> 32 bit ubuntu
[17:55] <corgan_> llutz i just did
[17:55] <JoeyBrennan> PCI-E graphics cards. Are v2 cards backwards compatible with v1 PCI-E motherboards?
[17:56] <llutz> corgan_: have you read http://ubuntulinux.co.in/blog/ubuntu/wifi-card-ralink-5390-configuration-in-ubuntu-10-10-64-bit/
[17:56] <schnuffle> tiptop2: depends on your patience :), /etc/network/interfaces configures your kown network cards. For that the hardware has to be recognized already, so first step is to do that. As soon as this is done, sudo ifconfig will list it, then you can configure it
[17:56] <sipior> JoeyBrennan: should be, yes
[17:56] <llutz> corgan_: it shouldn't be different for 32bit
[17:57] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  will do that one by one
[17:57] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  is AA:BB:CC:DD:EE    ( with DD ) ?
[17:57] <corgan_> what does cd mean?
[17:57] <jrib> corgan_: depends on the context
[17:57] <sipior> JoeyBrennan: the docs that came with the card should give the authoritative answer.
[17:57] <llutz> corgan_: cd = change directory.  do: "sudo apt-get install build-essential"  you'll need it
[17:57] <bc81> !info cd
[17:57] <schnuffle> tiptop2: so the problem is, how to load the kernel module with the correct options. And as I don't have the hardware I can only guess. Your hardware can be used in different setups
[17:58] <llutz> cd is shell-builtin
[17:58] <jeaf> hey i have this data harddisk that i share files fith windows and ubuntu. I just did some changed to some file in windows, but then when i came on ubuntu, only some of the files were made, and some was not deleted. Is there away to make ubuntu hmm update what files are on the harddisk?
[17:58] <JoeyBrennan> sipior tested  gt 240 card boots to "Checking NVRAM" and just sits there. I have tested the gt240 card on a v2 PCI-E motherboard and it boots fine.
[17:58] <jado> hello, i'm having a problem with my mouse: when i plug it, its red light blinks for a few seconds and then shuts off :( is there a way to fix that?
[17:59] <sipior> JoeyBrennan: consult the documentation, then. the card *should* be compatible with a V1.1 motherboard, but there are no guarantees.
[17:59] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  before that I have reverted backto "auto lo;  iface lo inet loopback" in /etc/network/interfaces, should i save it ? ie. without the mac address as the file was originally?
[17:59] <corgan_> i installed build essential llutz, what is it for
[17:59] <bc81> jeaf: how are you viewing the files, in graphical browser, or a terminal?
[18:00] <schnuffle> tiptop2: yes
[18:00] <llutz> corgan_: essential software to compile stuff
[18:00] <jrib> jeaf: that's a windows issue, no? Probably you removed the disk before making it safe to do so?
[18:00] <jeaf> bc81: graphical
[18:00] <JoeyBrennan> also the v1 PCI-E motherboard has a dummied down HP bios. Which does not help.
[18:00] <jeaf> jrib: the disk is a park of my computer
[18:00] <llutz> corgan_: have you already extracted the tarball? do you know where it is now?
[18:00] <jrib> jeaf: well are the changes available if you boot windows now?
[18:00] <bc81> jeaf: you try refreshing the view?  F5   or close & reopen the browser
[18:00] <RobinJ> if i make a copy of my system with squashfs, and put it on a LiveCD. Can i include ubiquity then to install it back to my computer?
[18:00] <corgan_> i don't understand how to do this....what should i do? is there a program that does this automatically?
[18:01] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  and i have also did /etc/init.d/networking restart now after changing it back to default
[18:01] <llutz> corgan_: you need to open a terminal (alt-f2: gnome-terminal)
[18:01] <corgan_> yeas llutz i know where it is
[18:01] <tiptop2> schnuffle, now ready to do the kernel step
[18:01] <corgan_> done
[18:01] <llutz> corgan_: type "cd /path/to/extracted/tarball"
[18:01] <corgan_> llutz done
[18:01] <jeaf> jrib, bc81: yea i better recheck if windows still have the files, as the should be. Ill be back in a few minius, ty so far
[18:02] <llutz> corgan_: "ls -l config.mk"
[18:02] <jeaf> bc81: also yes, i tryed reload
[18:02] <jeaf> brb
[18:02] <schnuffle> tiptop2: try sudo rmmod ks8842 && sudo insmod k28842 macaddr=<yourmac>
[18:02] <corgan_> it says no such directory exist
[18:03] <openSUSEkorisnik> Chrome vs Firefox on linux? Is chrome stable enough?
[18:03] <RobinJ> yes
[18:03] <RobinJ> on mint it works
[18:03] <danyel> e ai
[18:03] <danyel> galera
[18:03] <RobinJ> openSUSEkorisnik
[18:03] <jrib> !br | danyel
[18:03] <corgan_> llutz it says no such directory exist
[18:04] <openSUSEkorisnik> yea Im using both but FF was a lot faster on ubuntu
[18:04] <openSUSEkorisnik> on openSUSe its quite slow
[18:04] <llutz> corgan_:  mom please, i have to get the tarball too. makes it easier
[18:04] <ubu4> www.place.to.be
[18:04] <llutz> corgan_: type "cd 2010" and then TAB-key to expand the path
[18:05] <corgan_> llutz, mom? i have the tarball, what do i do?
[18:05] <Paulo39> hi guys
[18:05] <ubu4> welke saaie boel is dat hier
[18:05] <corgan_> llutz, that didn't work
[18:05] <Paulo39> i'm looking for an app to record my screen and make a video with that
[18:06] <llutz> corgan_: where is the tarball located?
[18:06] <Paulo39> what are the better apps for that?
[18:06] <ubu4> kom hier dames
[18:06] <corgan_> llutz in the downloads folder
[18:06] <llutz> corgan_: "cd Desktop"
[18:07] <jrib> !screencast | Paulo39
[18:07] <Paulo39> thanks jrib
[18:07] <llutz> corgan_: sorry "cd downloads"
[18:08] <tiptop2> schnuffle, with copy and paste "insmod: can't read k28842' no such file
[18:09] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  with k28842 changed to ks8842 " ERROR: module ks8842 does not exist in /proc/modules"
[18:09] <ChrisWere> hi, one of my process is using up all my bandwidth. i have a feeling is malware or something. how do i find out which process is eating up my net speed?
[18:09] <corgan_> it keeps saying no such directory, it didn't do that with desktop llutz
[18:09] <Enzo_> cryptobyte
[18:10] <corgan_> when i cd downloads it doesn't work
[18:11] <llutz> corgan_: you have to figure out the path to your download-folder
[18:11] <genii-around> Perhaps you forgot to uppercase the letter D in Downloads
[18:11] <lkp> corgan: linux is case sensitive
[18:11] <corgan_> i tried with an uppercase D i suppose i'l try again
[18:11] <cryptodira> does anyone have the backlit keyboard operational on ANY 64bit AMD machine on 10.04 ??

[18:14] <llutz> corgan_: didn't you say 5390?
[18:14] <tr3x12> I was wondering if anyone could help me with 'mathematica' installation
[18:14] <tiptop2> schnuffle,  should i restart (for the kernel process that you have suggested?)
[18:14] <tr3x12> I am getting an error : Mathematica_8.0.0_LINUX_MachineSpecific.sh: 383: Unix/Installer/MathInstaller: Permission denied
[18:14] <tr3x12> The program returned an error code (126)
[18:15] <corgan_> yeah....but it shares a driver with 3090 i'm almost certain....i've been searching and that seems to be the concensus
[18:15] <llutz> corgan_: are you sure? theres a ppa for 3090 with already compiled drivers
[18:16] <jrib> tr3x12: there's a mathematica guide on the wiki
[18:16] <jsn> there is some problem with playing videos files..when i start them.. there is no video but sound comes.this problem has occurred suddenly when i had installed ubuntu there was  no such prob..can anybody help??

[18:16] <corgan_> llutz, i tried the ppa and it doesn't seem to work
[18:16] <corgan_> i added iot to repositories
[18:16] <tr3x12> jrib: thank you mate, will definitely check it out.:)
[18:16] <corgan_> then i updated and that specific link does nto work at all
[18:16] <corgan_> then i updated and that specific link does nto work at all
[18:17] <corgan_> llutz that ppa doesn't work

[18:20] <llutz> corgan_: anyway i have to go. since there is a 5390-driver on the ralinktech site, i would suggest to use that one if the .deb won't work. follow the instructions from here http://ubuntulinux.co.in/blog/ubuntu/wifi-card-ralink-5390-configuration-in-ubuntu-10-10-64-bit/
[18:20] <tr3x12> jrib: is it good enough to be compared to with the likes of matlab and mathematica?
