[05:49] <blargh_> when booting it tells me "NTFS5: no grldr"
[05:50] <zykotick9> blargh_, ##windows is probably a better spot to be asking
[05:50] <blargh_> i asked there to, no answer yet
[05:50] <blargh_> *too
[05:51] <blargh_> also, i want to set up the partition with gparted
[05:51] <lucky711x> blargh_: try this http://tinyurl.com/6yggaqd
[05:51] <capri> for win7 you'll need a seperated start partition
[05:51] <Yai> boot in "AHCI" or "IDE" mode ?
[05:52] <lucky711x> where is samba share stored now in 11.04?  I know they used to be stored in /etc/smb.conf, but when you right click and share a folder now where is that config saved to? what file?
[05:52] <jordan_> blargh, if your duel booting best to install linux over windows
[05:52] <blargh_> lucky711x: yeah, that helps exactly zero.
[05:52] <jordan_> personally i never have installed linux then windows before
[05:53] <jgeli> hi, am running Natty on a laptop with AMD Fusion e350 and 8GB of ram. I have these freezes that I dont have with Win 7 on the same machine. how do i know whats causing the lock ups?
[05:54] <soreau> jgeli: Check logs such as /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog
[05:54] <jgeli> soreau, what am I looking for in those files?
[05:54] <blargh_> jordan: once i installed win7 over linux, then i could start linux from the bootmanager, so no problem
[05:55] <ParadigmUltra> Do people still use Comanche to configure Apache?
[05:55] <blargh_> but now i don't even get to the installation because of "NTFS5: no grldr"
[05:55] <jordan_> blargh, i just have no clue
[05:55] <soreau> jgeli: any interesting messages indicating a problem
[05:56] <jgeli> soreau, ill try to post some and hope someone can help
[05:56] <ParadigmUltra> I'm pretty suprised that Apache isn't listed in the Software Center
[05:56] <_Neytiri_> is there a good narrator out there?
[05:57] <soreau> jgeli: Lockups are usually caused by a kernel module (driver) issue but it can be hard to say which. Many times, it's the graphics driver
[05:57] <jgeli> sorea
[05:58] <jgeli> soreau: i am having issues with this ATI driver, Apparently Unity doesnt like ATI hardware and this fusion APU is relatively new
[05:58] <lucky711x> in case anyone needs to know samba shares are now stored in /var/lib/samba/usershares
[05:59] <zykotick9> lucky711x, i think if you install the full samba you'll find the config is still in /etc - it's probably just the "personal file sharing" that uses that /var/lib/.. path
[05:59] <lucky711x> blargh_, what steps did you take to install ubuntu and win7?
[05:59] <soreau> jgeli: If you've installed the proprietary fglrx driver, remove it. If you're using the default radeon driver, ask in #radeon for support
[05:59] <jgeli> sorea
[06:00] <jgeli> soreau: fglrx is the one that works. the open source one does not.
[06:00] <ParadigmUltra> Anyone know a good program to configure the Apache server?
[06:00] <lucky711x> zykotick9, in the /var/lib/samba/usershares
[06:00] <lucky711x>  is where shares config files are store when you right click a folder and share it
[06:01] <soreau> jgeli: It works, but for newer radeon gpu's, you may need to update the driver stack on the latest version of ubuntu by installing xorg-edgers repo
[06:01] <zykotick9> lucky711x, ya that's with the "personal file sharing" or whatever it's called
[06:01] <blargh_> lucky711x: i installed ubuntu some time ago and now i have created a bootable USB drive to install win7 from. When booting from this it stops at checking the partitions, saying one is "NTFS5: no grldr" and the last one is "EXT2"
[06:01] <soreau> jgeli: It's best to remove fglrx and get help in #radeon
[06:01] <jgeli> soreau: im on the syslog but somehow cant find what i need to find.
[06:01] <ActionParsnip> blargh_: do you have unpartitioned space on the drive(s)
[06:02] <jgeli> soreau: nothing that says error or fail or something like that
[06:02] <blargh_> ActionParsnip: nope
[06:02] <lucky711x> zykotick9, but you can still use the smb.conf for shares but the /var/lib/samba/usershares
[06:02] <lucky711x>  seems easier to me
[06:02] <ActionParsnip> blargh_: but you do have an NTFS partition?
[06:02] <blargh_> yes, two
[06:02] <ActionParsnip> blargh_: ok then i'd question the install media
[06:02] <blargh_> the empty one i wanted to install win7 to is /dev/sda1
[06:03] <blargh_> the usb drive is an exact copy of the Win7 DVD
[06:03] <blargh_> NTFS formatted, boot flag set
[06:04] <capri> blargh: you need more than one partition
[06:04] <capri> as i told you before you need a seperated boot partition
[06:05] <blargh_> i have set the boot flag too on the empty NTFS partition
[06:05] <nit-wit> windows 7 can be installed in one partition unless you need the bitlocker on the ultimate
[06:06] <blargh_> nit-wit: its not Ultimate, it is Pro
[06:06] <ActionParsnip> blargh_: does the Win7 DVD allow you to copy it exactly? Does it not need extra software etc?
[06:06] <ActionParsnip> blargh_: boot flags are moot, you use grub now
[06:07] <blargh_> ActionParsnip: it looked just the same as the DVD, don't know but i'm pretty sure / what do I do with grub?
[06:07] <melrockz> Hi everyone, SMplayer is not working in Natty... no video appears, though command line mplayer plays the same video. What could be the issue?
[06:08] <zykotick9> melrockz, change the VO in smplayer, should be in the preferences/settings somewhere
[06:08] <melrockz> The VO? Video is set to xv.
[06:09] <zykotick9> melrockz, from cli try "mplayer -vo xv FOO" and see if it works.  VO = Video Output
[06:09] <melrockz> Thanks, I'll try that...
[06:10] <ActionParsnip> blargh_: it will boot the OSes once installed. I'd ask in ##windows to make sure the USB stick is made correctly
[06:10] <wirehead> how would I resolve the "checking battery state" hang that occurs after installing a second video card?
[06:10] <blargh_> I will try to make the USB stick again from scratch using unetbootin
[06:10] <melrockz> No, 'mplayer -vo xv' does not work!
[06:11] <zykotick9> melrockz, so in smplayer change to something else
[06:11] <Tommy_nmw> hi
[06:11] <zykotick9> melrockz, gl might be a good choice, x11 will almost always work (but has limited abilities)
[06:12] <Tommy_nmw> how to setup CDMA800 Mhz  EVDO Internet connection on ubuntu 10.04
[06:12] <Tommy_nmw> ?
[06:12] <melrockz> Looks like x11 mode works in mplayer... I'll try that in smplayer now...
[06:12] <nit-wit> blargh_, hold on I know a thumb loader that works with W7 i have to find it.
[06:12] <zykotick9> melrockz, x11 probably doesn't have "real" fullscreen!
[06:13] <melrockz> Oops, GL does not work, btw I have old Intel 845GL onboard graphics only :(
[06:13] <nit-wit> blargh_, http://liveusb.info/dotclear/  this is an excellent tool.
[06:13] <blargh_> ok, thanks
[06:14] <zykotick9> melrockz, try x11 and test if fullscreen works
[06:14] <AlexDevilLX> Is this phrase correct: "somewhen we will all fall down" ?
[06:14] <nit-wit> blargh_, the method you used will work if you extract the iso to the thumb as well, IE ntfs partion on thumb and a boot flag, then exstract to it.
[06:15] <melrockz> K, thanks. One more Q, Doesn't Empathy hang when we try to access IRC chat? Can anything be done 4 that?
[06:17] <Kaoloi> hi all
[06:17] <zykotick9> melrockz, do you have any other IM's configured before you tried IRC?  If not, try configuring something else first.  BTW, IM clients make poor IRC clients.
[06:17] <sweat> ls
[06:18] <sweat> sorry--force of habbit
[06:18] <melrockz> I see. What would u suggest as a proper IRC client 4 ubuntu?
[06:18] <zykotick9> melrockz, xchat is popular
[06:18] <sweat> melrockz: irssi
[06:19] <blargh_> nit-wit: is there an english web site?
[06:19] <zykotick9> melrockz, FYI irssi is a cli client
[06:19] <sweat> it's all cli on irc
[06:19] <andydam> Hi, I'm trying to get my audio to work on Ubuntu 10.10.
[06:19] <melrockz> Oh, I just configured smplayer to use x11, still no vid appears...
[06:19] <andydam> I have an ALC662, and I can't get any audio to come out.
[06:20] <nit-wit> blargh_, if you have the flash block on it wont translate, it is on the translation page second download.
[06:20] <Beyond> andydam that sounds like a problem.
[06:20] <melrockz> btw, are there any proper repos for mplayer and smplayer 4 natty? Looks like the ones I found support only Lucid.
[06:20] <andydam> Beyond, trololololololol.
[06:20] <andydam> Can someone help me with my no audio problem?
[06:21] <nit-wit> blargh_, I hit the reload with the flash working and get a translate drop drown.
[06:21] <sweat> andydam: is your user in the audio group
[06:21] <andydam> :|
[06:21] <andydam> sweat, explain
[06:21] <sweat> andydam: groups USERNAME
[06:22] <blargh_> nit-wit: using chromium?
[06:22] <andydam> sweat, andy : andy adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare
[06:22] <zykotick9> sweat, FYI just typeing "groups" will show all groups your logged on user is a part of
[06:22] <sweat> andydam: usermod andy -a -G audio
[06:23] <andydam> user 'audio' does not exist
[06:23] <nit-wit> blargh_, the only other idiosyncrasy I have found with this app is I have to use gparted to make a fat3 that the app accepts.2
[06:23] <nit-wit> *fat32
[06:24] <sweat> andydam: apt-get install pulseaudio and then start-pulseaudio-x11
[06:24] <blargh_> I'll try with unetbootin first
[06:24] <andydam> sweat, pulseaudio already installed
[06:24] <andydam> sweat, Failure: Module initalization failed
[06:25] <andydam> alright nvm
[06:25] <andydam> i started with sudo
[06:25] <andydam> sweat, should I reboot and see if its working?
[06:25] <zykotick9> andydam, "grep audio /etc/group" do you get output?
[06:25] <andydam> Or are there more steps?
[06:26] <andydam> audio:x:29:pulse,andy
[06:26] <andydam> .
[06:26] <sweat> andydam: try playing audio from terminal with sudio APP whatever.avi or whatever--see if it plays under that
[06:26] <sweat> *sudo
[06:26] <andydam> wait what
[06:26] <andydam> uhhh
[06:27] <sweat> execute something from sudo
[06:28] <andydam> sweat, I don't know what to execute.
[06:28] <andydam> :|
[06:28] <orwells-iphone> sudo rm -rf /
[06:29] <sweat> andydam: totem
[06:29] <sweat> orwells-iphone: that r is supposed to be uppercase
[06:30] <orwells-iphone> Try it
[06:31] <zykotick9> !danger
[06:31] <andydam> sweat, nothing.
[06:32] <andydam> I'm not getting any sound.
[06:32] <sweat> orwells-iphone: i might do sudo time rm... it'd be neat to see how long it takes
[06:33] <andydam> Anything else I can do to try to get it working?
[06:33] <Trasp> is it possible to get a machine to automatically log in to a user and run the command startx at boot?
[06:34] <andydam> epic rage
[06:34]  * andydam throws keyboard at wall.
[06:34] <zykotick9> Trasp, inorder to get autologin working I've only ever seen that work with GDM, best of luck though
[06:35] <Trasp> crap...
[06:35] <Trasp> well... is it possible to start fluxbox from gdm?
[06:35] <zykotick9> Trasp, yes, but i haven't done it in a LONG time.
[06:35] <Trasp> and do I have to install a shitload of librarys to get gdm working?
[06:35] <blargh_> what the hell - i am trying to create a 2.3GB ISO with brasero. all it does is create an image checksum and then finish with a 2.0 MB ISO file ...
[06:36] <Trasp> zykotick9, that's a relief atleast
[06:36] <sweat> i think andy had the usermod command in reverse.. i gave it to him the right way
[06:36] <zykotick9> Trasp, probably a lot less work just to log in ;
[06:37] <Trasp> zykotick9, want my bitcoinminer to kick up on boot since I won't be around the machines too much and someone else might have to reboot them if something happens
[06:37] <Trasp> zykotick9, yeah, but I've got my reasons as mentioned :/
[06:37] <Trasp> And diablominer which performs best on my machine must be run on X
[06:38] <kingmilo> hi gents. I am booting the Alternate Install medium, however I dont think my graphics card is capable of displaying the nice install options so i only get install and expert install but my real goal is to install ltsp, so how do i tell my install i want to install ltsp from the lesser install options menu?
[06:39] <zykotick9> kingmilo, you are aware that Alternate is text only?
[06:40] <kingmilo> zykotick9, yes, but before that you get the normal install menu, nice graphical menu where u can choose ur install and then it will drop to text when i select ltsp. The problem is the nice graphical install menu cannot be displayed so i get a text install menu without the ltsp install option if that makes sense?
[06:41] <kingmilo> so how do i specify i want an ltsp install from the text boot/install menu?
[06:41] <zykotick9> kingmilo, i'm not familiar with ltsp sorry.
[06:41] <kingmilo> :/
[06:42] <e_t_> I thought you had to use either Edubuntu or Ubuntu Server to get the ltsp option.
[06:43] <ActionParsnip> e_t_: you can install server apps on the desktop if you wish
[06:44] <kingmilo> e_t_, you can use the Edubuntu, but the Alternate is where normal ltsp is and thats how that is installed
[06:45] <melrockz> xchat install from source: configure: error: "Cannot find glib"
[06:45] <zykotick9> melrockz, why on earth are you installing xchat from source?
[06:46] <melrockz> oops, sorry, I'll look in Synaptic.
[06:46] <ActionParsnip> melrockz: you'll need the build deps too. Xchat is in the repos though
[06:46] <ActionParsnip> !info xchat
[06:49] <sweat> melrockz: apt-get install libglib2.0-dev
[06:50] <andrewh192> hey, is there any way to tell what version (32 or 64) i have?
[06:50] <sweat> melrockz: just about anything you need is lib something dev.. library and development respectively
[06:50] <andrewh192> 32bit or 64bit?
[06:50] <zykotick9> andrewh192, "uname -m"
[06:50] <melrockz> Thanks for the help, guys! It's done, I'm out...
[06:50] <soulis77-SE> Hi On ubuntu 10.04 i "sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin sun-java6-jre sun-java6-jdk  sun-java6-plugin" which worked without any errors. But then I try to change from JDK to SUN with: sudo update-java-alternatives -l   and then sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun  I get error that pluginappletviewer doesn't excist.
[06:51] <andrewh192> i686
[06:51] <andrewh192> which means what?
[06:51] <zykotick9> andrew_46, 32bit
[06:51] <andrewh192> gotcha
[06:51] <ActionParsnip> andrewh192: i686 = 32bit   x86_64 = 64bit

[06:53] <KonataFB> anyone willing to help a former windows user with setting up vnc (or similar) so that it works even on the logon screen

[06:54] <sweat> soulis77-SE: openjre, icedtea-plugin
[06:55] <blargh_> should i install the boot files to /dev/sdc or /dev/sdc1?
[06:55] <ActionParsnip> KonataFB: you can manage samba via ssh
[06:55] <sweat> sdc is the disk, the entire disk
[06:55] <sweat> and not a partition
[06:56] <blargh_> sweat: okay

[06:58] <ActionParsnip> soulis77-SE: the ppa has java for lucid too
[06:58] <KonataFB> ActionParsnip: if I had to, I installed teh gui to add teh users out of lazyness
[06:58] <Tommy_nmw> who could help in EVDO connection?
[06:58] <zykotick9> ActionParsnip, FYI due to search "bubbles", "I'm feeling luck" will have different results for different users.
[06:59] <ActionParsnip> KonataFB: makes a more secure system if you use ssh ;)
[06:59] <soulis77-SE> Well I have followed the installation (same as I used) But it did display the pluginapplet...
[07:00] <ActionParsnip> zykotick9: i thought it was consistent, what makes it change?
[07:00] <zykotick9> ActionParsnip, for DDG's explanation see http://dontbubble.us/
[07:01] <ActionParsnip> soulis77-SE: add the partner repo in software centre too, you can get java there too
[07:01] <ActionParsnip> zykotick9: thanks I didn't think pigeons liked bubbles
[07:01] <KonataFB> ACtionParsnip: true, mainly just wanted a gui as a slighly smoother transition, sicne all my systems at windows bar the server.
[07:02] <soulis77-SE> ActionParsnip: I have added it. I don't have problem with installation. It is after that Im missing a plugin. The plugin that I after searching should have installed with the installation procedure.
[07:04] <soulis77-SE> ActionParsnip: I use sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-plugin  and after lots of text I have no erros.
[07:05] <bawn> hey, how do I  upgrade from 9.04 to 10.04

[07:06] <introuble> will i have to point (from domain registrar) control panel (A-company) for two different records. one for myname.com for b-comp  and second for staff.myname.com for c-comp ?

[07:07] <Trasp> Hm.. anyone knows how to enable autologin on gdm from commandline? obviously /etc/gdm/gdm.conf which all forums direct to doesn't exist anymore...
[07:07] <bawn> hey, how do I  upgrade from 9.04 to 10.04
[07:08] <soulis77-SE> sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun   displays:    update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for pluginappletviewer.
[07:09] <sweat> bawn: few ways to do that, the easiest is to install update-manager-core and then sudo do-dist-up
[07:09] <sweat> do-dist-upgrade
[07:09] <ActionParsnip> zykotick9: filterbubbles sound pretty cool

[07:11] <eli__> is there a channel for singing and music advice?
[07:11] <ActionParsnip> eli__: #music  maybe
[07:11] <Kaco2> eli__, /join #music ?
[07:11] <sweat> bawn: you can also obtain a cd of the alternate and then gksu 'sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade'
[07:12] <sweat> bawn: you would need to have gksudo installed and be in X to issue that
[07:12] <ActionParsnip> Bawn: i'd recommend a clean install, you'll have fewer issues

[07:17] <sweat> bawn: i meant do-release-upgrade
[07:17] <ActionParsnip> soulis77-SE: gotcha
[07:17] <soulis77-SE> But the update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun worked. The correct java is now default but I don't like errors.. :)
[07:18] <eli__> no

[07:23] <godofmischief> really having the worst luck apps i launch show up for a flash then disappear in the background.
[07:23] <zykotick9> checoimg, doesn't "sudo apt-get install xfce4" work?
[07:23] <godofmischief> like for example firefox, dolphin, terminal
[07:24] <checoimg> ok
[07:24] <Trasp> dc5ala, well... that's not an option
[07:24] <sweat> Trasp: a command at boot.. create a script, something like exec whatever flags, name it, stick it in /etc/init.d and then update-rc.d nameofthatscript defaults
[07:24] <NCS_One> hi

[07:26] <e_t_> NCS_One, mkv is a container format. If you're getting an abort, it's probably a codec problem.
[07:26] <checoimg> Ok I just saw itubottu
[07:26] <dc5ala> Trasp, ah okay, i misunderstood, with "boot" i have something else in mind ;)
[07:26] <zykotick9> Trasp, xterm has the same -e option
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> NCS_One: you may need w32codecs from medibuntu (i assume 32bit OS)
[07:27] <duhamelski> hello, somehow my ubuntu computer has lost communication with my debian fileserver.  all other computers on my network can communicate with eachother except for these two.  does anyone know how to debug this??
[07:27] <breaker313> ActionParsnip: Thanks, I'll take a look into that
[07:27] <checoimg> Thank you Ubottu!
[07:27] <NCS_One> e_t_: what do you recommend?
[07:27] <Trasp> zykotick9, Nice =) thanks!
[07:27] <NCS_One> ActionParsnip: no, 64
[07:27] <sweat> Trasp: i supposed you could adjust your .bashrc to execute a terminal on bootup
[07:27] <zykotick9> NCS_One, fyi mkv is a container so it can have lots of different codecs inside - there is a w64codecs in medibuntu as well
[07:28] <checoimg> duhamelski,  have t=you tried the repair mode when you enter grub?
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> duhamelski: can you ping dns and gateway. Can you ping the server via name or ip?
[07:28] <duhamelski> no
[07:28] <com64> I'm having trouble transcoding with mencoder. I get "Audio LAVC, couldn't find encoder for codec libfaac."
[07:28] <duhamelski> everyone else can but i cant ping or ssh
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> NCS_One: then w64codecs
[07:28] <checoimg> zykotick9,  htnkyou about the bot
[07:28] <checoimg> thank you*
[07:29] <Trasp> sweat, I wanted to know how to run a terminal and make it terminal run a specific command, I know how to xinit and else, but zykotick9  helped me
[07:29] <NCS_One> ok, thanks all
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> duhamelski: by both name and ip does it fail?
[07:29] <zykotick9> com64, if you are trying to make MP4 files i'd recommend using Handbrake, AAC is crippled in the default Ubuntu repo
[07:29] <duhamelski> yep
[07:29] <com64> k thanks.
[07:29] <com64> I'm actually trying to transcode to a format that the PSP can play.
[07:30] <duhamelski> ActionParsnip: any clue for debugging this?
[07:30] <ActionParsnip> duhamelski: can you ping your default gateway?
[07:30] <zykotick9> com64, i'd guess Handbrake would work for that (but i don't have a PSP so can't be sure)
[07:30] <checoimg> NCS_One, non-free-codes form medibuntu
[07:30] <com64> where do I get handbrake?
[07:30] <sandstorm> hello I've installed ubuntu with wubi and after booting into ubuntu I am getting errors such as: "Bad LUN (0:1) Bad Target Number (1:0)" etc. and it is whining about radeon graphics card. what might be the problem? Thanks.
[07:30] <zykotick9> com64, there is a PPA
[07:30] <duhamelski> ActionParsnip: i assume you are talking about my router... yes
[07:30] <zykotick9> !ppa > com64
[07:30] <duhamelski> ActionParsnip: i can ping every computer on my network except for this one
[07:31] <duhamelski> ActionParsnip: and every computer on my network can ping my server... and me... except mine
[07:31] <checoimg> NCS_One,  w64codecs is the exact name of the package
[07:31] <checoimg> I have it installed
[07:31] <checoimg> from medibuntu
[07:32] <acca3003> #mas_de_40
[07:32] <NCS_One> checoimg: thanks
[07:33] <ActionParsnip> duhamelski: if you manually add a route does it work?
[07:33] <checoimg> NCS_One,  youe welcome
[07:33] <duhamelski> ActionParsnip: how do you do that?
[07:33] <checoimg> I'm trying to get XFCE to work with Compiz
[07:33] <checoimg> It crashes sometimes
[07:34] <checoimg> And XFCE works better in the video drivers for me
[07:35] <ActionParsnip> duhamelski: there are sample route commands online. I'm on my phone and its not so fast but you can add a route to the individual host it may be ok
[07:35] <duhamelski> ActionParsnip: thanks
[07:35] <checoimg> sandstorm, I can't help you there maybe googling a little bit for those errors. Since when do you use UBuntu?
[07:36] <Fudge> how can i specify nameservers in my interfaces file?
[07:37] <sweat> Fudge: well i'm not saying you can't input them there but i think they belong in /etc/resolv.conf
[07:37] <e-DIO-t> yo!
[07:38] <e_t_> Fudge: add a line like "dns-nameservers x.x.x.x"
[07:38] <Fudge> thank you
[07:38] <ActionParsnip> duhamelski: worth a try. You can always remove it or reboot to revert
[07:38] <zykotick9> e_t_, it's "nameserver x.x.x.x" Fudge
[07:38] <checoimg> Does someone knows where are the configuration files for the Monitor settings tool?
[07:39] <checoimg> I need to set the two monitor s to work together again
[07:39] <e_t_> zykotick9: That's what you'd put in /etc/resolv.conf, but that's not what Fudge asked about.
[07:40] <zykotick9> e_t_, Fudge sorry my bad.  I didn't know you could but nameservers in the interface file.
[07:41] <e_t_> It's not especially well documented.
[07:41] <rooted-insideme> anyone know a good free bandwith monitor to watch how much bandwith is being used?
[07:41] <Fudge> i dont see it documented in interfaces man page
[07:42] <e_t_> rooted-insideme: is gnome-system-monitor not sufficient?
[07:42] <rooted-insideme> e_t_: it's for my esxi server
[07:43] <e_t_> Fudge: so I said. I only discovered it after a lot of Googling.
[07:43] <Fudge> thank you, works nice
[07:43] <Fudge> my router has a problem with dns cache so at times resolvc.conv is overwriteen etc, but this solves my problem
[07:45] <Tommy_nmw> who can help me my EVDO connection ?
[07:45] <e_t_> !info iptraf | rooted-insideme
[07:45] <MACscr> if I want an app to run as a particular user, i need to create that user first. Right? Is there a way to create the user without it adding a home folder and giving it ssh privs, etc?
[07:45] <checoimg> ubottu is  abot
[07:45] <rooted-insideme> e_t_: I know about iptraf
[07:45] <checoimg> a bot
[07:46] <rooted-insideme> but that doesn't monitor your how much bandwith you're using/month
[07:46] <bawn> thx actionparsnip
[07:46] <checoimg> y secondary monitor is not working fine with gnome
[07:46] <checoimg> 'm on ubuntu studio
[07:47] <Flannel> MACscr: You can create a user without a home directory.  There are a few ways to deny a user the ability to login via ssh.
[07:48] <checoimg> gnome-display-properties   don't see this package in synaptic
[07:48] <sweat> in fedora there's a way to input nameservers in the interface file.. dns1= and dns2=
[07:48] <rkhshm> i installed vmware on 11.04 and its horrible.
[07:48] <e_t_> rooted-insideme: for something like that, you might need munin, cacti, nagios, or similar.
[07:48] <rkhshm> everything time i try to set up a feature it quits
[07:48] <rkhshm> has anyone faced this issue? or is there a soluion?
[07:48] <rooted-insideme> e_t_: like cpanel type deal?
[07:49] <e_t_> Well, I imagine cpanel might have those as options, but they're independed packages.
[07:49] <e_t_> They're all network monitoring-type apps.
[07:53] <rooted-insideme> e_t_: what would you recommand out of the muin, cacti, nagios?
[07:54] <phaidros> heya, lately I had a weather widget/applet within indicator, next to the clock.
[07:54] <phaidros> but I cannot find it anymore .. 11.04 .. any hints?
[07:55] <wabznasm> phaidros: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/12/my-weather-indicator-new-ubuntu-weather.html
[07:55] <wabznasm> phaidros: though there are a couple at least
[07:57] <e_t_> rooted-insideme: guessing based on (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_network_monitoring_systems), I'd go with cacti.
[07:57] <phaidros> wabznasm: yeah I know, but I am specifically looking for the one coupled to the clock, it came with stock ubuntu, though. because the standalone applet fails here with compiz and even doesnt find its location database and such
[07:57] <rooted-insideme> e_t_: ty bud
[07:58] <wabznasm> phaidros: nah - that one kept working/failing depending on the revision with me to, so maybe poor recommendation
[07:58] <phaidros> :)
[07:58] <sweat> rooted-insideme: i'm just a desktop user--icewm has me covered with a netstat icon in the bottom of the screen for bandwidth ups and downs
[07:58] <wabznasm> phaidros: go conky?
[07:58] <phaidros> If I remember correctly I had within the clock thingie in gnomepanel/indicator a button "shwo weather also" or alike ..
[07:59] <phaidros> wabznasm: nah, conky is nice, but pointless if gnome panel is running lotsa stuff already
[08:00] <wabznasm> phaidros: fairy nuff. I just ditched gnome so an other may have a better suggestion
[08:01] <phaidros> wabznasm: heh, I'd go for i3 or ion3 if I'd find the time to get really used to it, maybe with conky. all others like awesome and friends I didnt like too much
[08:02] <wabznasm> phaidros: 3rd day with awesome here...interesting
[08:02] <phaidros> and for sure, gnome is bloated , but kde is ugly (imho, no pun to any reader here!, xfce isnt as lightweight as it used to be, and lxde is nice but not quite there feature and usability wise ..)
[08:02] <phaidros> so, for daily use I stick to it .. and I want this darn weather thing back :D
[08:02] <phaidros> !!
[08:03] <Tommy_nmw> hi
[08:03] <wabznasm> phaidros: then I defer to the better informed others
[08:03] <lonix> Cant say i like unity much
[08:03] <phaidros> lonix: agreed
[08:03] <Tommy_nmw> how to mark city on marks.ubuntu.com ?
[08:03] <markskil1eck> Hey, guys. Any idea why the compiz isn't placing windows in 11.04?
[08:04] <lonix> phaidros: i guess i have to look for a new desktop enviorment as of 11.10
[08:04] <phaidros> lonix: you just can use gnome classic, so unity doesnt get fired up
[08:04] <wabznasm> lonix: pretty much the stage I got to. I did think unity was attractive, but too cumbersome for mwe
[08:04] <phaidros> wait, you said 11.10 .. they'll ditch gnome classic ?
[08:05] <rooted-insideme> ok I have two nics in my router, eth0 is internet and eth1 I want to run a dhcp server, how do I configure eth1 to load up and be a dhcp server?
[08:05] <lonix> i thouth they where gonna remove ubuntu ubuntu classic then
[08:05] <Tommy_nmw> how to mark city on maps.ubuntu.com ?
[08:05] <markskil1eck> If they remove classic, I will burn them to the ground.
[08:05] <lonix> http://www.webupd8.org/2011/04/ubuntu-1110-will-not-ship-with-classic.html
[08:06] <TrevInc> lonix: I quit ubuntu forever. Thank you
[08:07] <lonix> Fallback will be unity 2d
[08:07] <tester>  Hi there any one got coffee and ready for this one.
[08:08] <ejo> whatever... I'm happy with ubuntu but switched to xmonad for my window manager
[08:08] <lasertroid> T
[08:08] <lasertroid> Hi
[08:09] <phaidros> rooted-insideme: look for /etc/network/interfaces and configure your eth1, then configure in /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd or alike your dhcp3 server to listen on that interface, you can probably check /etc/default/dhcp* for standard settings before
[08:09] <lonix> witch is still to "baby" for my taste i want a more direct control, rather than the point and click, fullscreen thing
[08:09] <rooted-insideme> phaidros: thanks bro
[08:09] <tester> I am devopling a os and it is in gnome 2 and kde plasma with a bunch of programs and when I make a iso of the the os It goes to defult kde
[08:10] <tester> when I try to use remastersys to back up the whole system it says that I need to clean to
[08:10] <e-DIO-t> yo!
[08:11] <tester> but the option for friends it works but reverts back to kde dfult
[08:11] <tester> I have tried to move the .gnome file and .kde file but I think I may have screwed up
[08:12] <tester> I moved it to /usr/share/applications/ but still nothing
[08:13] <tester> all of the programs are under lost and found after I make the iso ????
[08:13] <TrevInc> Where would be the proper forum for letting Canonical know how much I hate Unity?
[08:14] <tester> TREllis, Kubuntu lubutnu
[08:14] <rooted-insideme> phaidros: http://paste.ubuntu.com/643105/ that should work right?
[08:14] <rooted-insideme> for the interfaces file
[08:14] <tester> jk
[08:14] <tester> so are there devs here right now or not
[08:14] <TrevInc> Never mind.
[08:14] <TrevInc> I'd just like to take this opportunity in a public Ubuntu forum to say I'm switching back to Debian.  Thank you, have a good night.
[08:14] <phaidros> rooted-insideme: looks ok
[08:14] <FloodBot1> TrevInc: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:15] <th0r> TrevInc: bye
[08:15] <tester> ohh and I am using ubuntu 10.10 with a beefed up kernel
[08:15] <tester> 2.6.38-8-generic
[08:15] <rooted-insideme> hhmm the dhclient.conf file looks a little confusing :/
[08:16] <maoanz> Ubuntu laptop can still start even with few battery left. it causes the loss of data with laptop is in sleeping mode. does anyone have a solution for that ?
[08:17] <maoanz> Windows can avoid resume when not enough battery left.
[08:17] <jenny83> Hi. I just installed Ubuntu. Is there anything like photoshop?
[08:17] <maoanz> Gimp
[08:17] <wabznasm> jenny83: gimp
[08:17] <tester> maoanz, if you lost daya look at scaple
[08:17] <lonix> jenny83: gimp
[08:18] <maoanz> what is scaple ?
[08:18] <jenny83> how do I install it?
[08:18] <tester> a data recovery program
[08:18] <lonix> jenny83: sudo apt-get install gimp
[08:18] <tester> mao  data recovery program
[08:18] <tester> maoanz,   data recovery program *
[08:18] <lonix> bye all doeing dist upgrade from 8.04 to 11.04
[08:19] <jenny83> thanks
[08:19] <tester> jenny83, look at script fu also for other tools in gimp
[08:19] <kapcom01> hello, is there a general problem with 11.04 and screencasting?
[08:19] <jenny83> ok
[08:20] <shyam> is there a task manager in ubuntu like in windows?
[08:20] <shyam> thanks
[08:20] <maoanz> not only problem of loss of data. when laptop is in sleep, it has many windows opened. I need to keep these windows.
[08:20] <th0r> shyam: top
[08:20] <th0r> shyam: or ps
[08:20] <kapcom01> shyam, yes there is. system monitor
[08:20] <maoanz> I wonder if it's possible to do like in Windows, to avoid resume when not enough battery.
[08:20] <rooted-insideme> phaidros: looks like dhcp server isnt' installed
[08:20] <rooted-insideme> just dhcp-client
[08:21] <phaidros> rooted-insideme: so, install it? try "aptitude search dhcp | grep server" choose one and install it
[08:21] <shyam> is it how we can regain control of system when it hangs..using the system monitor?
[08:22] <rooted-insideme> yeah i am
[08:22] <tester> shyam, ctrl+alt+f2 then sign in then enter password then so a sudo /ect/init.d/gdm restart
[08:23] <namelixiu> 官网下载的liveusb-creater,解压后 没有./configure文件，有Makefile文件。
[08:23] <namelixiu> ＃make 通过，最后一句：“removing 'liveusb-creator-3.11.1' (and everything under it)
[08:23] <namelixiu> ”
[08:23] <namelixiu> ＃make install，显示“make: *** 没有规则可以创建目标“install”。 停止。”
[08:23] <kapcom01> shyam, if everything hangs including system monitor then I usually press CTRL+ALT+F1 which takes me to a shell terminal and there I can type "sudo service gdm restart" to restart the whole desktop
[08:23] <FloodBot1> namelixiu: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:23] <bridean> I can't get the java plugin to work with firefox
[08:23] <tester> shyam, also do a top when you are in the cli to see what is making it hang
[08:23] <namelixiu> ＃make 通过，最后一句：“removing 'liveusb-creator-3.11.1' (and everything under it)
[08:23] <namelixiu> ”
[08:23] <namelixiu> ＃make install，显示“make: *** 没有规则可以创建目标“install”。 停止。”
[08:23] <tester> shyam, also do a "top" when you are in the cli to see what is making it hang *

[08:25] <tester> My operating system being tested in vbox http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isoS3BRavl8
[08:25] <sandstorm> checoimg: I just started using it but I already googled the errors, no solutions.
[08:26] <tester> it is slow because it is 3.9 gigs out of the box
[08:26] <bazhang> tester, how does your own OS relate to ubuntu support
[08:26] <rooted-insideme> YAY adding eth1 to the interfaces broke now there's no internet on the box
[08:26] <tester> bazhang, it is Ubuntu at the core
[08:27] <tester> And alwas will be
[08:27] <bazhang> tester, its a derivative, not Ubuntu
[08:27] <tester> Yes sir
[08:27] <tester> Is there something wrong with that ?
[08:27] <bazhang> tester, its offtopic here. try sharing with #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:28] <tester> bazhang, what is off topic I am asking about remastersys but I will ask there too
[08:29] <bazhang> tester, creating your own personal OS is fine, buts its not supported here, so offtopic
[08:30] <bazhang> tester, remastersys from where
[08:30] <tester> bazhang, what if some one wants to back up there system ???
[08:30] <Polysics> hello
[08:30] <tester> bazhang, look up
[08:30] <Polysics> newbie question
[08:30] <Polysics> is there a way to "bookmark" SSH connections on the command line?
[08:30] <bazhang> !info remastersys | tester
[08:31] <ikonia> tester: building a derivative and backing up a machine are two totally seperate tasks
[08:31] <Polysics> so i do not have to type the whole user@address thing?
[08:31] <Trasp> whatever I do, the more problems I run into
[08:31] <Polysics> i know, i am lazy :-D
[08:31] <tester>  I am devopling a os and it is in gnome 2 and kde plasma with a bunch of programs and when I make a iso of the the os It goes to defult kde  when I try to use remastersys to back up the whole system it says that I need to clean  I have tried to move the .gnome file and .kde file but I think I may have screwed up I moved it to /usr/share/applications/ but still nothing
 all of the programs are under lost and found after I make the iso ????  ohh and I am using ubuntu 10.10 with a beefed up kernel
 2.6.38-8-generic
[08:32] <tester> sorry that was ment for bazhang
[08:32] <zykotick9> Polysics, you could create a script, or use "history | grep ssh" to see previous connections you've used.
[08:32] <th0r> Polysics: you can write a simple script that contains the command line. Put it in /usr/local/bin and make sure you change it to be executable
[08:32] <bazhang> tester, then contact the remastersys people
[08:32] <zykotick9> th0r, ~/bin would be better
[08:32] <Polysics> yeah, a bash script looks the easiest
[08:32] <Polysics> thanks
[08:32] <sandstorm> hello I've installed ubuntu with wubi and after booting into ubuntu I am getting errors such as: "Bad LUN (0:1) Bad Target Number (1:0)" etc. and it is whining about radeon graphics card. what might be the problem? google and such returns no results. Thanks.
[08:32] <tester> bazhang, It is because I am a White hat >?
[08:33] <ikonia> tester: no, stop now, this is your final warning
[08:33] <Trasp> I'm starting an application through ~/fluxbox/startup (xterm -e /home/trasp/dir/application -foo -bar) but it complain over that it can't find the OpenCL-librarys and I can't figure out why... The program runs just fine if i start it manually
[08:33] <th0r> zykotick9: yes, but that won't be in the path I think
[08:33] <bazhang> tester, pardon?
[08:33] <zykotick9> th0r, actually it is
[08:33] <ikonia> tester: this topic is not for #ubuntu, do you fully understand
[08:33] <tester> Yes I understand
[08:33] <Marg2010> exit
[08:33] <ikonia> tester: ok, then please stop discussing it
[08:34] <th0r> zykotick9: ah....ubuntu I guess. running debian so my world is a bit different <smile>
[08:34] <bridean> Where can I ask about firefox?
[08:35] <tester> ikonia, but I was honest I could have said How to back up my sys with out talking about any thing else that is all I have to say GREAT SUPPORT
[08:35] <Trasp> zykotick9, You've been helpful earlier, no ideas on this one?
[08:35] <ikonia> tester: no you couldn't it still wouldn't have been supported
[08:35] <bazhang> bridean, how did you install the plugin, from where, and which one
[08:35] <explosion123> Does anyone of you know why my monitor is 1360x768, but when i set the resolution to that, the screen is too wide?
[08:35] <zykotick9> th0r, actually, same on Debian
[08:36] <zykotick9> Trasp, sorry no.
[08:36] <MACscr> ok, so i have a particular app on my ubuntu system running as user foo, but my regular user is bar that i create all my files with, etc. I have a folder that i add new files to all the time on the fly and i need to make sure user foo has access to them. I am assuming i need to do something with chown/chmod. But not 100% sure and even more, not sure how to do it and make sure i dont have to manually do anything to the files every time i
[08:36] <th0r> zykotick9: darn if it isn't! learn something new every day <smile>
[08:36] <Trasp> ;/
[08:37] <explosion123> Does anyone of you know why my monitor is 1360x768, but when i set the resolution to that, the screen is too wide?
[08:38] <bridean> bazhang, I tried creating a symbolic link to the latest jrd
[08:38] <bridean> jre
[08:38] <bazhang> bridean, did you install the plugin after enabling the partner repo? the sun-java6-  one?
[08:39] <bazhang> bridean, thats not the one you want then
[08:39] <bazhang> !partner | bridean
[08:39] <bazhang> !java | bridean
[08:39] <bridean> bazhang, I think so
[08:39] <Polysics> who defines THEMSELVES as "white hat" or "black hat" or "whatever hat"?
[08:39] <Polysics> well, aside from red hat .-d
[08:39] <bazhang> Polysics, offtopic here
[08:40] <bazhang> Polysics, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:40] <explosion123> I'm grey hat :P
[08:40] <Polysics> bazhang, it just was a rethorical question, it's like calling yourself "a very nice person" yourself. anyway, ok :-D
[08:41] <Trasp> Do you guys know any other way to autostart a program when starting X (fluxbox) except from the ~/fluxbox/startup-file?
[08:41] <Polysics> what would be a very-lightweight DE that is still sort of familiar to a windows user? i want to recover an old laptop for my wife
[08:41] <xastey> i'm having an odd problem.. when I open up the term and try to ls it just locks up
[08:42] <xastey> seems to happen every so often
[08:42] <explosion123> Polysics: Puppy?
[08:42] <bazhang> Polysics, no idea , as thats totally opinion, but lightweight is lubuntu-desktop (lxde and openbox)
[08:42] <th0r> Trasp: used to be able to do it in ~/.profile or ~/.login
[08:42] <explosion123> Puppy Linux i think
[08:42] <xastey> wonder if my hd is going to sleep or something
[08:42] <Polysics> puppy is a whole distro
[08:42] <bazhang> explosion123, this is ubuntu please recommend ubuntu solutions
[08:42] <Trasp> th0r, thanks, i'll put it to google :)
[08:43] <explosion123> Sorry
[08:43] <Polysics> the machine is a P4 with 512Mb of RAM, i think some flavor of Ubuntu should run
[08:43] <bazhang> !lubuntu | Polysics
[08:43] <Polysics> cool, i didn't know it existed! looks like a perfect fit, thanks
[08:43] <koichirose> Hello. I edited /etc/environment to put in some environment variables. Now I can't login to ubuntu anymore. I write my password at login, the screen goes fuzzy for a moment then I'm back at the login screen. What can I do?
[08:44] <pepi_> hi i need help how to install 2 packages (private if possible) thank you!
[08:44] <bazhang> pepi_, ask here
[08:45] <th0r> koichirose: you will probably need to try to reset /etc/environment. Just so you know...those new definitions should probably have gone into .bashrc
[08:46] <koichirose> th0r, -_- why does it say not recommended here, then? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables#Session-wide%20environment%20variables
[08:46] <koichirose> th0r, and below it says 'should be placed into /etc/environment'
[08:47] <pepi_> i need to install java
[08:47] <bazhang> pepi_, the browser plugins?
[08:47] <pepi_> i downloaded it with firefox in the default download directory
[08:47] <th0r> koichirose: right...for a system change that would be the proper place to put it I guess
[08:47] <bazhang> pepi_, that is not the way to install things in Ubuntu
[08:47] <pepi_> it is called jre-6u26-linux-i586-rpm.bin
[08:47] <pepi_> okay, so i delete that?
[08:48] <bazhang> pepi_, yes
[08:48] <pepi_> okay
[08:48] <koichirose> th0r, anyway I'm stuck now. Can't even get into recovery console
[08:48] <pepi_> well, i have another file there too, it's called opera_11.50.1074_i386.deb
[08:48] <bazhang> pepi_, install from the synaptic package manager
[08:48] <pepi_> i need to install opera (the web browser)
[08:48] <zolgar> IS there a way to get DVD's to play on Ubuntu 11.04? I keep getting an error about how a decryption library is not installed.
[08:49] <pepi_> what i do in the synaptic?
[08:49] <bazhang> zolgar, libdvdcss2 from medibuntu.org
[08:49] <th0r> koichirose: you can boot up a livecd...mount the hard drive to a mount point from the livecd, then edit the file from there
[08:50] <pepi_> bazhang ?
[08:50] <bazhang> pepi_, you want the java plugin for opera? or is this a separate issue
[08:50] <koichirose> I hoped I could get into the terminal directly.. downloading ubuntu now.
[08:51] <th0r> zolgar: you probably need libdvdcss2 from medibuntu
[08:51] <pepi_> i need to install 2 things: opera and java
[08:51] <zolgar> Would DL'ing Ubuntu Restricted Extras from the software center help?
[08:52] <bazhang> pepi_, just checking on opera, the java is in the partner repo
[08:53] <bazhang> !partner | pepi_
[08:53] <pepi_> i write that in terminal?
[08:53] <bazhang> zolgar, not that I'm aware. you need the libdvdcss2 for that from medibuntu.org
[08:54] <zolgar> bazhang: okay
[08:54] <bazhang> pepi_, or go into synaptic package manager and enable the partner repo
[08:54] <zolgar> bazhang: okay i got it as a tar.gz file. do i extract it then run something?
[08:54] <bazhang> pepi_, once you have reloaded the packages list, then search for java
[08:55] <bazhang> zolgar, its a .deb from medibuntu.org
[08:55] <pepi_> from where i enable it
[08:55] <gaurav_natty> my mircophone is not working i think in alsamixer some setting r distrubed
[08:55] <bazhang> pepi_, do you have synaptic package manager open in front of you?
[08:55] <pepi_> yes
[08:55] <zolgar> bazhang: my bad dl'd the source XD
[08:56] <th0r> zolgar: there should be an ubuntu page about adding medibuntu to synaptic
[08:56] <sandstorm> hello I've installed ubuntu with wubi and after booting into ubuntu I am getting errors such as: "Bad LUN (0:1) Bad Target Number (1:0)" etc. and it is whining about radeon graphics card. what might be the problem? google and such returns no results. Thanks.
[08:56] <zolgar> bazhang: would a restart be in order?
[08:56] <jnsl_> how can i update to the latest version of tar?
[08:56] <bazhang> pepi_, see the tabs?
[08:56] <bazhang> pepi_, the tab that says 'other software'?
[08:57] <pepi_> jeh
[08:57] <zolgar> bazhang: guess not. its working :D thanks tons
[08:57] <bazhang> th0r, he can just dl the deb, no need for the repo
[08:57] <bazhang> pepi_, so click the tab other software, put a check on the canonical partners
[08:58] <pepi_> alright
[08:58] <gaurav_natty> my mirocphone is not woking
[08:58] <bazhang> gaurav_natty, adjust in alsamixer then
[08:58] <pepi_> there is several javas, which one im supposed to instal?
[08:58] <bazhang> pepi_, close that window, then hit reload
[08:58] <pepi_> install*
[08:59] <bazhang> pepi_, did you update the sources yet? ie reload?
[08:59] <pepi_> yes
[08:59] <bazhang> pepi_, so search for the sun-java packages
[09:00] <hacking_u> is here anyone who  installed gnome 3 on natty?
[09:00] <pepi_> which i install?
[09:00] <Rouse> natty ?
[09:00] <hacking_u> i have a problem with ibus ime
[09:00] <Rouse> wats that
[09:00] <bazhang> hacking_u, probably, but its not supported, and breaks things so offtopic
[09:00] <bazhang> !gnome3 | hacking_u
[09:00] <hacking_u> okay, i got it
[09:01] <jnsl_> how can i get the latest tar version ? tar --version, gives me 1.22, if i do apt-get install tar, it says tar is latest version but on the tar homepage i read that tar exist in version 1.26
[09:01] <bazhang> !java | pepi_ please read
[09:01] <bazhang> jnsl_, why would you possibly need the latest tar
[09:02] <VictorCL2> is there anything similar to notepad++ but for ubuntu?
[09:02] <pepi_> okay got it
[09:02] <pepi_> how about the opera?
[09:02] <jnsl_> i have a module on my server that generates a tar file, but i can't read the file afterwards, says "it dosen't look like a tar file", so i wanted to try and update my version of tar on the server
[09:02] <wabznasm> VictorCL2: geany, gedit, notepad++ under wine
[09:02] <wabznasm> VictorCL2: kate
[09:03] <VictorCL2> yes .. gedit dosnt have syntax highlight
[09:04] <wabznasm> VictorCL2: addons can be obtained, but the usual opinion on the net is thatnothing is quite the same as N++
[09:04] <dc5ala> jnsl_, the problem is probably somewhere else but not in your tar version, probably corrupt file?
[09:04] <bazhang> pepi_, you got the .deb from opera homepage, right? just double click it to install
[09:04] <VictorCL2> yes I know .. they are like cheap copies :/
[09:04] <wabznasm> VictorCL2: add the usual standards of emacs, vim and gvim
[09:05] <wabznasm> VictorCL2: which is why I suggested N+ under wine. Apparently very stable
[09:05] <VictorCL2> yes .. but why do I have to emulate a windows program on linux ... I want to get confortable using linux softare
[09:05] <jnsl_> dc5ala maybe, but there are not much bug info on this, so i figured it might be something with my enviorment
[09:05] <VictorCL2> but I cant even find a decent color picker
[09:06] <new2net> yo... my clock froze, what time is it?
[09:06] <new2net> oh wait nm... can just type in "date"
[09:06] <Charybdis> 0406 am CDT
[09:07] <dc5ala> jnsl_, what does "file" say about your tar? maybe it's compressed?
[09:07] <jnsl_> it says data
[09:07] <th0r> VictorCL2: have youlooked at nedit?
[09:08] <hacking_u> humm... onerick will use gnome3 shell?
[09:08] <bazhang> hacking_u, yes. support and discussion in #ubuntu+1
[09:09] <Tricks> Alright guys
[09:09] <bazhang> hacking_u, its oneiric by the way
[09:09] <jnsl_> error i get : This does not look like a tar archive
[09:09] <jnsl_> tar: Skipping to next header
[09:09] <jnsl_> tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
[09:09] <hacking_u> bazhang, thx!
[09:09] <dc5ala> jnsl_, that does not look good then, it should say tar archive or identify compression algo
[09:10] <jnsl_> what would you suggest i do dc5ala? :)
[09:10] <hacking_u> bazhang, i didn't know about #ubuntu+1 channel, thx very much
[09:10] <bazhang> jnsl_, why exactly do you need the latest tar?
[09:11] <aaaaaaaaaaa> fuck
[09:11] <aaaaaaaaaaa> FUCK
[09:11] <dc5ala> jnsl_, don't know details how you creating that tar file
[09:11] <jpds> aaaaaaaaaaa: Hi.
[09:13] <Tricks> I have recently upgraded to ubuntu 11.04 but have been having some teething issues; firstly, the computer crashes randomly. The monitor output is completely white. Secondly, I can't use dual monitors anymore. Both monitors show the standard desk top but I can't drag windows from left to right
[09:13] <Tricks> anybody been having similar issues?
[09:14] <Tricks> my card is: GeForce 7100 GS which worked fine with Ubuntu 10
[09:14] <Incarus6> Tricks, does that issue occur only in Unity?
[09:14] <Tricks> nope both in classic and unity
[09:14] <deem> Tricks: did you checked if your card is using 2 xserver and not twinview?
[09:15] <Tricks> deem, hmm
[09:16] <Tricks> deem, this is the strange part, I've used the nVidia gui to set the monitors but when I look in Xorg I can see twin view in the file
[09:16] <Tricks> deem, shall I post the config file?
[09:16] <Tricks> deem, I don't like playing with it cos I don't want to break anything :P
[09:19] <deem> Tricks: afaik unity isn't using the xorg anymore
[09:19] <dddbmt> Hey guys. I have a folder containing the svn checkout of a project. Then I have made a link to that folder from /var/www. But I get 403 Forbidden when trying to access through webbrowser.
[09:19] <dddbmt> Where to start debug.
[09:19] <FloodBot1> dddbmt: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:20] <e_t_> dddbmt: does the www-data user have read access to that directory?
[09:20] <Tricks> deem, ok so is there somewhere else I should be making the changes?
[09:21] <dddbmt> e_t_ - a "ls -l" says that it's the same user that own both /var/www and my svn folder.
[09:21] <e_t_> dddbmt: are you using Apache?
[09:22] <dddbmt> e_t_ - yes, sorry.
[09:22] <buggyer> hi guys, need help adding smb users via ldap. smbldap-populate spits out: failed to modify entry: modifications require authentication at /usr/sbin/smbldap-populate line 491, <GEN1> line 242. and smbldap-useradd tells me: Error: modifications require authentication at /usr/share/perl5/smbldap_tools.pm line 1187, <DATA> line 466.
[09:22] <jungleBust3r> Tricks, you could try creating a 10 gb partion by moving your current one with gparted (gui) installing ubuntu again and playing with that version. Not the most elegant way, yet...
[09:22] <tsimpson> dddbmt: have a look in /var/log/apache2/error.log
[09:23] <dddbmt> tsimpson: Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible:
[09:23] <dddbmt> ... so it's my permissions for my SVN folder that's wrong?
[09:23] <Incarus6> Tricks, are you sure you saved the nvidia-settings configuration file properly?
[09:24] <tsimpson> dddbmt: I think you probably need to add "FollowSymLinks" to the Options line for /var/www in your sites config
[09:24] <qwebirc26270> Can someone help me? -- I have Ubuntu 11.04 running on a HP Pavilion DM4 and I can't seem to get my wifi and my track pad to work or work correctly
[09:25] <dddbmt> tsimpson, http://pastebin.com/6JU8Ehdh - doesn't that look ok?
[09:26] <Incarus6> qwebirc26270, can you paste "rfkill list all"?
[09:26] <e_t_> dddbmt: instead of using a symlink, you could make an alias within the Apache config.
[09:26] <dddbmt> e_t_, okay - should I just google "Apache alias" ?
[09:26] <tsimpson> dddbmt: yeah, that looks ok. try running "sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload" and see if it works
[09:27] <dddbmt> tsimpson, just restarted seconds ago.
[09:27] <dddbmt> e_t_, mod_alias ?
[09:28] <tsimpson> I'm pretty sure mod_alias is loaded by default
[09:28] <fosbin> 1
[09:28] <namelixiu> dff
[09:30] <JdGordon> I installed lxde and xorg on a base server install and lxde seems to only have one huge font... what package do i need to install to get the usual avilable fonts?
[09:30] <e_t_> dddbmt: tsimpson is probably right about mod_alias. See if this will work: http://paste.ubuntu.com/643131/
[09:32] <rooted-insideme> ok im trying to get eth1 up and working and dhcp running on eth1 but I cannot get it to work
[09:32] <rooted-insideme> http://paste.ubuntu.com/643133/ is what my /etc/network/interfaces looks like
[09:33] <rooted-insideme> and I setup the dhcp-server conf to listen on eth1
[09:33] <rooted-insideme> any ideas
[09:34] <e_t_> rooted-insideme: don't assign a gateway to eth1. It will screw up your routing big time to have more than one default gateway.
[09:36] <babu__> can i able to send mess to ip address connected with my system
[09:37] <e_t_> messes should be cleaned, not shared.
[09:37] <dli> rooted-insideme, interfaces shows static IP, what's your dhcpd.conf?
[09:39] <babu__> how to find the version of jdk i'm using
[09:39] <rooted-insideme> dli: one sec
[09:40] <xubuntu-noob> Hi @ all
[09:40] <dli> babu__, java -version ?
[09:40] <a__> isconnect
[09:40] <tomek_> hi, what is good gui tool for samba configuring?
[09:40] <babu__> can i able to send mess to ip address connected with my system
[09:40] <xubuntu-noob> I have a small problem : the mounted devices in /media don't show up on my Desktop !
[09:40] <arfbtwn> tomek_: GADMIN is pretty good. Though your text editor is the best tbh
[09:40] <xubuntu-noob> It's in xubuntu but I guess it's similar ?
[09:41] <babu__> i installed jdk 1.6...how do i install/upgrade to java 7
[09:41] <dli> xubuntu-noob, do them show up in thunar?
[09:41] <xubuntu-noob> nope
[09:41] <dli> xubuntu-noob, how do you mount them in /media
[09:42] <xubuntu-noob> with fstab, like : //myserver'IP/myshare /media/myshare cifs username=uname,password=passwd 0 0
[09:42] <rooted-insideme> dli: http://paste.ubuntu.com/643142/ is the dhcp server config
[09:43] <xubuntu-noob> It didnt work on startup though, I don't know why. So I unmounted and re-mounted with "sudo mount -t cifs etc" and nothing shows neither
[09:43] <lonix> that went well
[09:43] <rooted-insideme> dli: according everything I have read, im suppost to have a /etc/dhcp3 folder and I don't
[09:44] <e_t_> rooted-insideme: Are you using 11.04?
[09:44] <Tricks> Incarus6,  sorry about the delay mate. how do you mean nvidia-settings configuration file saved properly?
[09:44] <rooted-insideme> debian 6
[09:44] <shamila> i'm using huawei e220 usb modem to connect the internet how can i set up it for my ubuntu version 10.04
[09:44] <rooted-insideme> but it's the same configuration as ubuntu
[09:45] <Mark_Sketching> Hi! I'm looking for a way to bind a key stroke to <button 3>. Is there a file I can edit to set that up?
[09:45] <babu__> i want to send mess to my friends system connected to my pc over lan..
[09:45] <babu__> how to do it
[09:45] <Incarus6> Tricks, the nvidia-settings gui needs sudo rights to save the configuration under /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Don't just click on "Apply", click on "Save to X Configuration file"
[09:45] <e_t_> rooted-insideme: At least for ubuntu, the default DHCP server changed to isc-dhcp-server. The conf for that is /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf.
[09:46] <rooted-insideme> e_t_: mines in /etc/default
[09:46] <shamila> any one please help me
[09:46] <e_t_> rooted-insideme: That's not the main configuration file. Look in /etc for dhcp anything.
[09:46] <babu__> i want to send mess to my friends system connected to my pc over lan..
[09:46] <babu__> how to do it
[09:47] <rooted-insideme> aahh there it is
[09:47] <shamila> i'm using huawei e220 usb modem to connect the internet how can i set up it for my ubuntu version 10.04
[09:47] <rooted-insideme> dhcpd.conf  in /etc/dhcp
[09:48] <e_t_> babu__: there are several programs that would allow you to do that.
[09:48] <shamila> fuck you all does any one help me
[09:48] <shamila> i'm using huawei e220 usb modem to connect the internet how can i set up it for my ubuntu version 10.04
[09:48] <rooted-insideme> e_t_: I found the conf file just have to set it up
[09:49] <babu__> i want  by terminal...??my friend don't like empathy n all

[09:52] <neostest> testestestestseteste
[09:53] <neostest> anybody here ?.
[09:53] <Incarus6> neostest, yes
[09:53] <rooted-insideme> e_t_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/643138/ that's what my /etc/network/interface looks like and now both eth0 and eth1 start up on boot and eth0 has internet
[09:53] <arfbtwn> shamila: it's an old page but might get you started http://tinyurl.com/38knuel
[09:53] <babu__> please tell the usage of talk command
[09:53] <Tricks> Incarus6,  when I try to open the fui using the command line "sudo nvidia-settings" I get probably 20 errors before it opens. Is this normal?
[09:53] <rooted-insideme> so is that ok that I have it like that or did I do it wrong?
[09:54] <Incarus6> Tricks, try gksu and ignore the errors
[09:54] <ppp> Hey, what are openssl-devel and libssl-devel please ? Do i have to take one or the other one for ubuntu ?
[09:54] <babu__> it's always saying "error on read from talk domain"
[09:54] <babu__> please tell the usage of talk command
[09:54] <babu__> it's always saying "error on read from talk domain"
[09:54] <XxKOLOHExX> Incarus6 It didn't work :(
[09:54] <ppp> Hey, what are openssl-devel and libssl-devel please ? Do i have to take one or the other one for ubuntu ? ty
[09:55] <Incarus6> XxKOLOHExX, can you paste the output of "uname -a"?
[09:55] <babu__> please tell the usage of talk command

[09:55] <arfbtwn> ppp: dev packages shouldn't be needed for running, just compiling against
[09:56] <dury> hi there channel :)
[09:56] <wh1zz0> hi guys ...
[09:56] <ppp> Well theres a software i'm trying to install but it says error messages, and the solution suggested is to get openssl-devel  or libssl-devel but idk what they are
[09:56] <berkes> suddenly my banshee (11.04/unity) starts up and garbles the screen. As if the entire application (including its chrome) is a transparent layer whith no re-rendering. Any idea what that bug is called?
[09:56] <Incarus6> XxKOLOHExX, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/773918 looks related
[09:56] <e_t_> babu__: both you and your friend should type "mesg y" to accept talk messages.
[09:57] <arfbtwn> ppp: Is the software from the repos or are you compiling it yourself?
[09:57] <Tricks> Incarus6, nah still not working no dual screens :(
[09:57] <ppp> not compiling no, and what is the repos ? :p (new with ubuntu here)
[09:57] <XxKOLOHExX> Incarus6 Thanks will take a look
[09:57] <arfbtwn> ppp: ubuntu software centre
[09:57] <ppp> It's something from teh internet
[09:57] <ppp> ah i see
[09:57] <Incarus6> Tricks, have you rebooted since saving the file?
[09:57] <ppp> nope, i entered some commands myself, suggested to install it
[09:58] <dury> is it possible to download firefox 5.01 for 10.04
[09:58] <io> ppp: '$ sudo apt-get install libssl-dev' in a !Terminal
[09:58] <tsimpson> ppp: libssl-dev is the one in ubuntu
[09:58] <ppp> then i have to do the command "make" and it doesn't work, and suggested actions is to get openssl or libssl (devel), idk how it works
[09:58] <babu__> give sample of talk command
[09:58] <arfbtwn> ppp: I would check the ubuntu software centre first before you try compiling (make does that)
[09:58] <e_t_> rooted-insideme: If you're running a DHCP server on eth1, you don't want to assign its address by DHCP.
[09:58] <Tricks> Incarus6, well I was saving the file manually originally anyway. When it wouldn't save the config  I just copied it and replaced via the command line
[09:58] <Tricks> Incarus6, but I'll try now brb
[09:59] <ppp> mmh i don't think it would be in the center
[09:59] <ppp> can't find the real name
[09:59] <ppp> nvm
[09:59] <arfbtwn> babu__: the man page sometimes gives an example. man talk will explain all
[09:59] <e_t_> babu__: try "man talk".
[09:59] <Benkinooby> !off-topic
[10:01] <dury> does it affect to ubuntu 10.04 if I install firefox 5.01
[10:02] <wh1zz0> eit
[10:02] <wh1zz0> exit
[10:03] <rooted-insideme> e_t_: oh ok
[10:03] <rooted-insideme> so I need to set it static?
[10:04] <dury> rooted-insideme: you mean your ip connection
[10:04] <venol> Ehem
[10:04] <e_t_> rooted-insideme: eth1 should be static, but you should only need address and netmask lines. Definitely don't set a gateway on eth1.
[10:04] <rooted-insideme> e_t_: ok
[10:05] <rooted-insideme> so just add in the address and netmask
[10:05] <e_t_> Yes.
[10:05] <rooted-insideme> YAY for flood
[10:07] <dipiwee> morining
[10:07] <dipiwee> im looking for the nick of a mod on the forums
[10:07] <dipiwee> or if a forum mod is in here now
[10:07] <rooted-insideme> stupid bot
[10:07] <jrib> dipiwee: #ubuntuforums
[10:07] <dipiwee> jrib: thanks
[10:08] <dury> does it affect to ubuntu 10.04 if I install firefox 5.01
[10:08] <rooted-insideme> wow@floodbot2
[10:08] <Diverdude> hello, i have a very large tif file (~65 MB). I am unsure how many channels the file contains, if it has r,g and b or just a single channel. How can i check that?
[10:10] <arfbtwn> Diverdude: file <filename> sometimes gives info, otherwise. Maybe check it in GIMP.
[10:10] <LjL> e_t_: you were banned by mistake, sorry
[10:11] <squaregoldfish> Diverdude If you have imagemagick installed, you can use the identify command.
[10:11] <e_t_> Thank you, LjL
[10:11] <squaregoldfish> Diverdude: Or use GIMP as arfbtwn suggests.
[10:11] <Schalken> rsyslogd has been using 192% of my cpu (quad core machine) for the past 27 hours. Does anyone have any ideas how to figure out what is going on?
[10:11] <Diverdude> squaregoldfish, aha, identify shows this: fish 15 - bac + DMSO 1_ch00.tif TIFF 8192x8192 8192x8192+0+0 8-bit PseudoClass 256c 64.01MiB 0.000u 0:00.010
[10:11] <rooted-insideme> wb e_t_
[10:12] <Diverdude> squaregoldfish, does that say anything about what channels are in the file?
[10:13] <squaregoldfish> Diverdude: ....
[10:13] <Diverdude> squaregoldfish, ?
[10:13] <squaregoldfish> Diverdude: Is it a greyscale image?
[10:13] <Diverdude> squaregoldfish, thats what i am trying to figure out
[10:13] <venol> Diverdude: Maybe you can double click the file
[10:13] <venol> helo, I'm use mailgraph to monitoring mail server,  If I send an email it gets counted as sent. It also gets counted as Received". Is this normal?
[10:14] <Kaoloi> I'm dual booting windows vista and ubuntu 11.04. But now, i want to make the change. How to install ubuntu 11.04 and format the rest of the hard disk? (I installed it with wubi)
[10:14] <Diverdude> venol, double click is no good
[10:14] <Diverdude> venol, it may very well use some colormap
[10:14] <squaregoldfish> Diverdude: I think it might be - it's saying 8-bit image and 256 colours, which implies greyscale. Indexed colour is unlikely in a TIFF, but I could be wrong. I think you'll just have to open it and find out.
[10:14] <arfbtwn> Diverdude: from the identify, looks like it's 256 colours == 8 bit
[10:14] <Kaoloi> i'm currently burning a CD with ubuntu, hoping that there will be an option when i launch it to format everything else
[10:15] <Diverdude> squaregoldfish, well, grayscale image can also be 8-bit image just with a single channel instead og 3
[10:15] <squaregoldfish> diverdude: Exactly. With the info we have from identify, I can't tell.
[10:16] <Kaoloi> I'm dual booting windows vista and ubuntu 11.04. But now, i want to make the change. How to install ubuntu 11.04 and format the rest of the hard disk? (I installed it with wubi)
[10:16] <Kaoloi> anyone please?
[10:16] <Diverdude> squaregoldfish, opening the image also wont tell since the viewer may just apply some colormap...making it impossible to see
[10:16] <squaregoldfish> Diverdude: Try identify -verbose
[10:16] <Tricks> Incarus6, nah same as before mate
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> Kaoloi,  i suggest backing up your impornatnat data. and doing a reinstall.
[10:17] <venol> helo, I'm use mailgraph to monitoring mail server,  If I send an email it gets counted as sent. It also gets counted as Received". Is this normal?
[10:17] <Dr_Willis> Kaoloi,  and deleteing windows during the install
[10:17] <squaregoldfish> Diverdude: Should be a Colorspace entry.
[10:17] <Dr_Willis> Kaoloi,  there are wubi-to-hard drive tools.. but ive never used them. so they may not work very well
[10:17] <Kaoloi> ive backed up all my important data Dr_Willis
[10:17] <Diverdude> Diverdude, yeah in the tif file right?
[10:17] <Kaoloi> Dr_Willis,  will they be an option when i install ubuntu where i can 'reinstall' or 'format and install'?
[10:17] <Dr_Willis> Kaoloi,  You cold try a wubi-2-hd tool/script i guess.. if you wqant to try to save some time
[10:18] <Tricks> Incarus6, surely it shouldn't be this hard to enable an extended desktop
[10:18] <Kaoloi> will it delete my vista and ubuntu partition?
[10:18] <Kaoloi> i dont mind losing my data on ubuntu
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> Kaoloi,  the insatller can 'use the whole hard drive' ane erase all..
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> Kaoloi,  if you sued wubi - you dont have a ubuntu partition...
[10:18] <squaregoldfish> Diverdude: identify -verbose <file>.tiff
[10:19] <Kaoloi> ahh.. but it gave me a little 13gb partition for ubuntu and the rest for vista
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> bbl work timw for me
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> Kaoloi,  you sure you dident MAKE a wubi 'file' not a partition?
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> \bye all..
[10:20] <Kaoloi> i'm sorry i'm very new to this. i just launched the installer and followed the instructions
[10:20] <arfbtwn> Kaoloi: so as Dr_Willis said, you don't have a full ubuntu partition
[10:20] <Diverdude> squaregoldfish, aha that gave a lot of info, look: http://pastebin.com/SBiqJbSQ
[10:21] <Kaoloi> arfbtwn,  ok, so now if I want to use ubuntu only. I insert my install CD and restart my laptop. follow the instructions and look for an option where i have 'install ubuntu and format the entire drive'?
[10:21] <arfbtwn> Kaoloi: bingo ;)
[10:22] <Kaoloi> arfbtwn, and this will erase my current data on ubuntu right?
[10:22] <Kaoloi> like my email settings and stuff
[10:23] <hacking_u> Kaoloi, have you backed up your data you need?
[10:23] <squaregoldfish> Diverdude: So it looks like you've got a greyscale image, but it's encoded as RGB with the image data in the Blue channel. Weird.
[10:23] <arfbtwn> Kaoloi: The option actually says erase entire disk, so, yes. Do you want to backup your home dir first?
[10:23] <Diverdude> squaregoldfish, i think its grayscale
[10:23] <Diverdude> yes
[10:23] <Diverdude> squaregoldfish, that was my thought also
[10:23] <Kaoloi> maybe i should do that haha..
[10:23] <Diverdude> since it has
[10:23] <Diverdude> Channel depth:
[10:23] <Diverdude>     red: 1-bit
[10:23] <Diverdude>     green: 1-bit
[10:23] <Diverdude>     blue: 16-bit
[10:23] <FloodBot1> Diverdude: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:23] <XxKOLOHExX> @Tricks Incarus6 will be back later
[10:23] <squaregoldfish> diverdude: Exactly.
[10:23] <arfbtwn> Kaoloi: tar -jcvf homebackup.tar.bz2 $HOME from ubuntu should do it
[10:24] <Kaoloi> where will it back up?
[10:24] <caddoo> probably a retarded question. But i'm using the latest ubuntu, and i find the font / font rendering very odd
[10:24] <Diverdude> squaregoldfish, ohh well, i will treat it as a colorimage then :) perfect. thx
[10:24] <caddoo> and hard to work with
[10:24] <Diverdude> ehmm grayscale i mean
[10:24] <caddoo> did anyone else find this
[10:24] <Diverdude> hehehe
[10:24] <squaregoldfish> diverdude: Hehe. No problem. Might be worth you converting it to proper greyscale to avoid future confusion...
[10:24] <Kaoloi> arfbtwn, when i reinstall ubuntu i'll be able to use that back up? I just need the settings and app i've downloaded...
[10:25] <Kaoloi> not much data
[10:25] <Diverdude> squaregoldfish, im gonna import in my python script, so ill just deal with it in there
[10:25] <squaregoldfish> diverdude: Fair enough. Enjoy :)
[10:25] <hacking_u> Kaoloi, what is dist you use
[10:25] <Kaoloi> dist?
[10:25] <arfbtwn> Kaoloi: where ever you say homebackup.tar.bz2 will be. Then you can put that anywhere
[10:26] <caddoo> also is it normal to have like 10 updates a day?
[10:26] <hacking_u> Kaoloi, ummm, natty or ...
[10:26] <TL1> very much :-)
[10:26] <TL1> ilts linux
[10:26] <Kaoloi> i'm sorry im a total new, i'm not sure what im using... anyway to check?
[10:26] <caddoo> TL1, directed at me?
[10:26] <Diverdude> squaregoldfish, thx :)
[10:27] <TL1> yes caddoo its linux world
[10:27] <TL1> caddoo: life never stops
[10:27] <arfbtwn> Kaoloi: don't worry, it's probably natty but that doesn't really matter too much
[10:27] <hacking_u> Kaoloi, what is your version of ubuntu(or other dist?)
[10:27] <Kaoloi> 11.04
[10:27] <TL1> caddoo: do you have a slow connection ?
[10:27] <hacking_u> and you're trying to reinstall 11.04
[10:27] <hacking_u> right?
[10:27] <caddoo> no TL1 it just seems like its an error haha
[10:27] <Kaoloi> yes
[10:28] <Kaoloi> i dont want to use vista anymore basically..
[10:28] <Kaoloi> just ubuntu
[10:28] <Kaoloi> but i used wubi to try out
[10:28] <_Fly> ns identify ilovemay
[10:28] <hacking_u> i think you don't have to reinstall it.
[10:28] <Incarus6> Tricks, still here?
[10:28] <TL1> caddoo: lol it's normal
[10:29] <Kaoloi> but i realized that the disk space left for ubuntu is too small. and i looked online on resizing partition and omg thats too hard..
[10:29] <TL1> for example i keep struggle with grub2
[10:29] <hacking_u> but if you want to, follow arfbtwn 's
[10:29] <TL1> each time i have to power down my virtual machine it keeps corruptin
[10:31] <Kaoloi> hacking_u, just a little question, if I reinstall it and only use ubuntu. can i confirm with you guys that i can still install windows 7 later? (in a tiny partition maybe?)
[10:31] <caddoo> any IDE recommendations for PHP? Using NB 7.0 at the moment its functional but it just doesn't fit in nicely with the OS and is a bit sluggish sometimes
[10:32] <hacking_u> Kaoloi, yes, u can but if install windows with ubuntu after setting up ubuntu, it can be harder then setting up ubuntu with pre installed windows
[10:33] <KolakCC> Pretty sure you can't talk about IDEs anywhere..
[10:33] <Kaoloi> i think i'll follow arfbtwn, do a reinstall (a good clean to my laptop). and hopefully i can use that backup file he made me do somehow! so that I dont have to enter my email settings, apps downloaded, etc.
[10:33] <Kaoloi> ok ill use ubuntu as my base OS
[10:33] <arfbtwn> Kaoloi: That command will only backup your settings
[10:33] <Kaoloi> thats fine then!
[10:33] <arfbtwn> Kaoloi: you'll still need to re-install the programs fresh
[10:33] <Kaoloi> its alright :)
[10:33] <Kaoloi> thanks!
[10:34] <Kaoloi> but how to use that backup file?
[10:34] <arfbtwn> netime
[10:35] <arfbtwn> Kaoloi: Once you've reinstalled, you unzip with tar -jxvf homebackup.tar.bz2 but execute from /home
[10:36] <arfbtwn> Kaoloi: If anything goes wrong, keep a hold of that file ;)
[10:36] <hacking_u> Kaoloi, u said ur a begginer linuxer, so i propose u to use gui backup tool
[10:37] <Kaoloi> ok thank you so much arfbtwn & hacking_u, ill try to do it. if im lost ill come and see you again!
[10:37] <arfbtwn> Kaoloi: hacking_u talks sense!
[10:37] <dddbmt_> e_t_, I've tried http://paste.ubuntu.com/643131/, but I still get a 403 from Apache. Note that I still have my link to SVN folder in my /var/www.
[10:37] <dddbmt_> And sorry my response time!
[10:38] <e_t_> try removing the symlink.
[10:38] <dddbmt_> still nothing
[10:39] <Kaoloi> wish me good luck guys !! bye!
[10:39] <Kaoloi> lol
[10:40] <hacking_u> arfbtwn, humm, i'm not good at english, so i can't understand that you said (Kaoloi:talks sense!)
[10:41] <hacking_u> arfbtwn, i mean i could not understand the meanning of that sentence;
[10:41] <dattebayo> how can i change my Splash Screen image?
[10:41] <arfbtwn> hacking_u: Just that your suggestion was better than mine for newbies
[10:42] <Name141> how do you manually search files over the network? smb://addresshere/whateverfolder ?
[10:42] <Name141> or should I say manually connect
[10:43] <starZ> hi all - gwibber is not working since few updates.. did you experience that on natty?
[10:43] <arfbtwn> dattebayo: The boot spash? Haven't done it myself, googline for plymouth will help
[10:43] <arfbtwn> Name141: If it's a samba/windows share, yes. Browsing can be done from network in the places menu
[10:43] <dattebayo> i google it and they says /usr/share/pixmaps/splash but i dont have this folder
[10:44] <starZ> hi all - gwibber is not working since few updates.. did you experience that on natty?
[10:45] <Incarus6> !splash | dattebayo
[10:46] <e_t_> dddbmt: Did you restart apache to load the new configuration?
[10:46] <starZ> anyone knows why gwibber gui is not showing on natty?
[10:46] <Name141> aflynn: it's not correctly picking up the IP# of the "MSHome's"
[10:46] <Name141> aflynn: in according to the machines names
[10:46] <syslq> apachectl restart
[10:47] <syslq> or even reload
[10:47] <arfbtwn> Name141: Right, so want to check connectivity. the smb://* format will work to go there directly
[10:48] <starZ> anyone knows gwibber?
[10:48] <starZ> :(
[10:48] <arfbtwn> starZ: Yeah, but I'm on lucid
[10:48] <arfbtwn> starZ:  have you tried running it from a terminal and seeing what output you get?

[11:07] <huda_asda> hey   ineed help to install vlc in bactrack
[11:07] <huda_asda> i'm newbie
[11:07] <e_t_> twister004: If I remember correctly, you'll only be able to do it in interfaces if you're using WEP (non)security.
[11:08] <twister004> e_t_, I'm using WPA2 personal security.... also, why isn't network manager taking care of the config?
[11:08] <introuble>  in a folder containing many files. is there a way to change a certain word of every file name (if it contains it) and every code in the file name (if its a .php file for e.g) and replace it with another auto matically?
[11:09] <huda_asda> hey   ineed help to install vlc in bactrack
[11:09] <huda_asda> hey   ineed help to install vlc in bactrack
[11:09] <jrib> introuble: sure, you can use rename if you know about regular expressions
[11:09] <jrib> !backtrack | huda_asda
[11:09] <e_t_> twister004: Did you select NM to automatically start the connection?
[11:09] <huda_asda> ok sorry
[11:09] <introuble> jrib i need to change every code in the files tooo. if any. for e.g .php or .txt
[11:09] <rooted-insideme> Andy_master: do you have a bootable linux partition installed on the hard drive?
[11:10] <cojack> btw icedtea-plugin was enaugh
[11:10] <twister004> e_t_... how do i do that... also, please note that my wired interface is static... not dynamic
[11:10] <cojack> for runing java aplets
[11:10] <cojack> using openjdk
[11:11] <dury> hi all :)
[11:12] <Andy_master> rooted-insideme:  I had, but I deleted the parition using windows 7
[11:14] <rooted-insideme> Andy_master: ok
[11:14] <rooted-insideme> so now you have no linux partition
[11:14] <rooted-insideme> and grub was your bootloader
[11:14] <rooted-insideme> hehe bad idea
[11:14] <twister004> e_t_... since my wired interface is static, Network Manager is not running... am I correct?
[11:15] <Andy_master> rooted-insideme:  so what should i do now ?
[11:16] <rooted-insideme> google on how to re-install windows bootloader without reinstalling
[11:16] <Rouse> now am installing ubuntu in my new raw hard disk... i want  to make three partitions..so wat to do
[11:17] <Rouse> this is a new system
[11:17] <Rouse> i chosen manually partition  option in ubuntu 10.04 setup
[11:18] <com64> rouse, there should be a way to manually set up partitions with the installer...
[11:18] <rooted-insideme> wb e_t_
[11:18] <e_t_> rooted-insideme: sorry, I had to restart.
[11:18] <rooted-insideme> no worries bud
[11:18] <Rouse> com64, yeah
[11:18] <Rouse> its ter
[11:18] <twister004> e_t_... since my wired interface is static, Network Manager is not running... am I correct?
[11:18] <com64> rouse, how about using a partition editor run from a usb drive or cd?
[11:18] <com64> i can't remember what it's called, but I did tat once.
[11:18] <Rouse> usb drive
[11:18] <e_t_> twister004: not necessarily.
[11:19] <com64> let me look it up for you...
[11:19] <Rouse> whats tht ext4 file
[11:19] <Rouse> system
[11:19] <twister004> e_t_... the security mmode is WPA2-personal.. how can I configure my interface... also, wpa_cli is not able to connect to wpa_suppliant
[11:19] <com64> Rouse, use a GParted livecd
[11:19] <com64> or liveusb
[11:19] <com64> to partition your drive.
[11:19] <introuble> jrib if in a folder that has subfolders and files. abc232.jpg  00sabc_3.txt and 11.php that contains code that contains *abc*  .   i want to replace all abc with xyz.
[11:20] <com64> rouse, it should be included in unetbootin.
[11:20] <Rouse> can gparted be along with ubuntu files in usb
[11:20] <Rouse> ?
[11:20] <e_t_> twister004: So you have a static IP wired interface AND a wireless interface?
[11:20] <jrib>  /what
[11:20] <twister004> e_t_.. yes
[11:20] <com64> rouse, no I think you need a separate usb drive
[11:20] <jrib> introuble: do you know about regular expressions?
[11:20] <Rouse> ok let me do it
[11:21] <e_t_> twister004: You really only need one.
[11:21] <introuble> jrib everything
[11:21] <introuble> jrib what do you mean by reg expres?
[11:21] <twister004> e_t_.. yes.. i know... but since wireless doesn't work, I had to use wired.. but I want wireless to work
[11:21] <arfbtwn> jrib: What about regular expressions?
[11:21] <com64> rouse, so what I'd do is partition the hard drive the way you want it, then install Ubuntu (with the automatic partition setup or whatever) onto the partition you want it on...
[11:21] <jrib> introuble: read « man rename » and http://www.regular-expressions.info/
[11:22] <introuble> will that change file names and file contents too?
[11:22] <Somelauw> Hi, for some reason java starts up when my system starts up and I want to prevent it. Any suggestions how to block this misfeature?
[11:22] <jrib> introuble: for the recursive aspect of your question, use find.   For file contents, use sed.
[11:22] <introuble> jrib sure ?
[11:23] <llutz> introuble: like:   find path/ -type f |xargs rename -n 's/abc/xyz/'
[11:23] <e_t_> twister004: Do you see a network icon in the upper-right region of the screen, somewhere near the clock?
[11:23] <introuble> jrib can krename do it all ?
[11:23] <jrib> introuble: no, rename only renames filenames.
[11:24] <introuble> jrib krename can only rename file names?
[11:24] <twister004> e_t_.. no, but I see the bluetooth icon
[11:24] <jrib> introuble: I don't know why you keep saying "krename"
[11:24] <llutz> !nfo krename
[11:25] <introuble> llutz find path/ -type f |xargs rename -n 's/abc/xyz/'         this will rename every file in the path and its subfolders that contains *abc* like aasdfabc or 8796abc  ?
[11:25] <introuble> !info krename
[11:25] <llutz> introuble: it will
[11:25] <llutz> introuble: NOT krename
[11:25]  * s7r whoami
[11:26] <llutz> introuble: those are different tools (krename is a GUI-tool)
[11:27] <introuble> llee and how to rename contents and codes in files ?
[11:27] <introuble> llutz ^
[11:28] <llutz> introuble: read "man sed"
[11:28] <llutz> introuble: to give you some ideas on sed: http://sed.sourceforge.net/sed1line.txt
[11:28] <Skills_> wnt 2 ask quest on hackng ne bdy 2 help
[11:28] <Skills_> ?
[11:29] <jrib> introuble: the basic syntax you want is « sed -i 's/REGULAR EXPRESSION TO REPLACE/WHAT TO REPLACE IT WITH/g' FILE »
[11:29] <s000501> Trying to force an integrity scan of a LVM local volume, but running fsck only gives on line: /dev/mapper/...: clean ... files ... blocks (diagnostic message); any help would be appreciated!
[11:29] <jrib> Skills_: what question...?
[11:29] <Skills_> tut on shellcoding
[11:29] <Skills_> where to find
[11:29] <jrib> Skills_: that's not really on-topic here
[11:29] <Skills_> ok

[11:31] <xubuntu-noob> Hi @ all. my Desktop doesnt show mounted devs on /media anymore. Any hint ??
[11:31] <xubuntu-noob> (im on xfce but I guess its similar ?)
[11:32] <geirha> llutz: That's not a good guide for beginners, the wooledge guide is better.
[11:32] <llutz> geirha: this? http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide
[11:32] <geirha> llutz: Yes.
[11:36] <rooted-insideme> anyone here good with iptables and forwarding internet from eth0 to eth1
[11:36] <rooted-insideme> that can help e_t_ and I out
[11:38] <Rouse> com64,  whats the ext4 ext2
[11:38] <Rouse> ?
[11:38] <Rouse> wat all these
[11:38] <com64> oh
[11:38] <arfbtwn> rooted-insideme: Is a bridge not what you want?
[11:38] <com64> those are the tyes of partitions
[11:38] <com64> types*
[11:38] <SwedeMike> Rouse: they're different filesystems.
[11:38] <com64> you'll want to choose ext4.
[11:38] <com64> filesystems, I mean.
[11:39] <denebola> Is there a log somewhere that ubuntu writes to when it crashes/freezes
[11:39] <Rouse> hmm..fine mine is 320 gb hard disk
[11:39] <Rouse> so how to partition it
[11:39] <harubirukill> hei
[11:39] <arfbtwn> rooted-insideme: Ahh, internet sharing? See this: http://tinyurl.com/jslgy
[11:39] <Rouse> which will be useful in future
[11:39] <twister004> hi guys... my wpa_supplicant.conf file is missing on my machine
[11:39] <twister004> any idea how this is possible?
[11:39] <com64> Rouse, you using gparted?
[11:40] <arfbtwn> twister004: it's not missing, you can copy a sample from the doc directory
[11:40] <Rouse> you tell..i think its better to choose manual parttion in ubuntu
[11:40] <Rouse> still i dint start com64
[11:40] <com64> okay.
[11:41] <introuble> jrib can you tell the exact command for sed to change contents with wildcards *abc*    to be changed by xyz ?
[11:41] <com64> anyway, I have to go to bed, so I can't really help anymore...
[11:41] <com64> night...
[11:41] <Rouse> hey tel
[11:41] <Rouse> me and go man
[11:41] <Rouse> please
[11:41] <com64> what do you want to know specifically?
[11:41] <twister004> aftbtwn: it's not there under doc either..
[11:41] <com64> I'm going to pass out any moment here.
[11:41] <twister004> arfbtwn*.. sorry about that
[11:42] <Rouse> 320 gb harddisk ...to be partitioned to ext4 ? or wat type filesystem
[11:42] <arfbtwn> introuble: he told you before cat filename | sed -i 's/abc/xyz/g'
[11:42] <Rouse> what mount point i must give ?
[11:42] <com64> rouse, I'd choose ext4.
[11:42] <arfbtwn> introuble: actually, I think -i can take a filename instead of the cat...
[11:42] <com64> root
[11:42] <com64> rouse, root mount point i think.
[11:42] <Rouse> for example will create 4 partitions each of 80gb
[11:42] <com64> yeah
[11:43] <Rouse> all the four will be ext4
[11:43] <Rouse> ?
[11:43] <com64> so what do you want on each partition?
[11:43] <arfbtwn> twister004: it should be here -> /usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant/examples
[11:43] <com64> all can be ext4 if you want
[11:43] <Rouse> in one partition i may install windows
[11:43] <Pici> introuble, arfbtwn: sed -i 's/abc/xyz/g' filename      Using -i and piping in text won't work properly.
[11:43] <arfbtwn> Pici: yeah, I spotted my error... whoops.
[11:43] <Rouse> in other another OS
[11:43] <com64> rouse, when you install windows, the installer can format it, so don't worry.
[11:44] <Rouse> oh ok\
[11:44] <com64> but it's better I think to install Windows first.
[11:44] <Rouse> nope i ll do it later only
[11:44] <twister004> arfdtwn: wpa_supplicant.conf is not there... but 'wpa-psk-tkip.conf' and 'wpa2-eap-ccmp.conf' are there... should I move these and rename accordingly/.?
[11:44] <introuble> arag0rn can you be more specific please. the path etc. and i need *abc*
[11:44] <com64> Okay, your choice.
[11:44] <pravinkenator> Hello I need a small clarification regarding running a script at boot time
[11:45] <Rouse> okay shall i give all the four ext4
[11:45] <Rouse> ?
[11:45] <sandstorm|away> is ubuntu using unity or gnome 3 shell as default?
[11:45] <arfbtwn> twister004: yes, those are example files. you'll need to run wpa_passphrase to fill in the psk field
[11:45] <Pici> introuble: sed -i 's/oldtext/newtext/g' /path/to/filename
[11:45] <Rouse> com64,  dont sleep man
[11:45] <Rouse> two more mis pls
[11:45] <Rouse> *mins
[11:45] <rooted-insideme> arfbtwn: yeah that link didn't work
[11:45] <com64> yes, go ahead and set all four to ext4, but format the one that's going to be windows to ntfs if you want. anyway, make sure one partition is set to root mount point (that's the one you will install ubuntu on.)
[11:46] <rooted-insideme> well I did that and still no internet sharing
[11:46] <com64> one of the ext4 partitions must have root mounpoint, I mean
[11:46] <arfbtwn> rooted-insideme: that's the iptables bit, you'll also need to setup dhcp on the sharing port. using e.g. dnsmasq
[11:46] <Rouse> sdf
[11:47] <arfbtwn> rooted-insideme: I believe that network manager can also do it
[11:47] <Rouse> this is the root point right / ?
[11:47] <com64> yes
[11:47] <Rouse> for other three partitions whats the root ?
[11:47] <Rouse> must give
[11:47] <com64> for the other partitions, you dont need a mount point
[11:47] <com64> however
[11:48] <Rouse> hmm okay :)
[11:48] <com64> it may be a good idea to have a swap partition
[11:48] <com64> so maybe make another partition
[11:48] <rooted-insideme> arfbtwn: so I have to have dnsmasq installed?
[11:48] <Rouse> totally 5
[11:48] <Rouse> ?
[11:48] <Rouse> but ly 4 primary is allowed
[11:48] <arfbtwn> rooted-insideme: you can also do it through network manager from the ipv4 tab when you edit the connection
[11:48] <arfbtwn> rooted-insideme: and you won't need dnsmasq
[11:49] <com64> make the size at least as much as your RAM, and format to swapfs... then the mount point for it would be linux-swap
[11:49] <rooted-insideme> arfbtwn: it's a remote box
[11:49] <com64> rouse, can you make a logical partition instead?
[11:49] <com64> instead of primary?
[11:49] <introuble> Pici you mean  /path/to/filename means path to folder containing files and subfolders?
[11:49] <Rouse> yep
[11:49] <arfbtwn> rooted-insideme: then dnsmasq is probably the way to
[11:49] <rooted-insideme> ok
[11:49] <com64> rouse, so do that I guess...
[11:49] <introuble> Pici iam new to linux
[11:49] <Pici> introuble: I missed the first question. Can you re-explain what you are trying to do, and I'll provide a command to do what you need to?
[11:50] <Rouse> ok
[11:50] <Rouse> thanks
[11:50] <Rouse> dude
[11:50] <com64> yes?
[11:50] <Rouse> have a nice sleep
[11:50] <com64> okay I will ;)
[11:51] <introuble> Pici in a folder containing many files. is there a way to change a certain word of every file name (if it contains it) and every code in the file name (if its a .php file for e.g) and replace it with another auto matically?
[11:51] <introuble> if in a folder that has subfolders and files. abc232.jpg  00sabc_3.txt and 11.php that contains code that contains *abc*  .   i want to replace all abc with xyz.
[11:53] <Pici> introuble: find /path/to/files/ -type f -iname "*.php" -exec sed -i 's/abc/xyz/g' {} \;
[11:53] <introuble> Pici no the files may or may not be .php  . they can be any . js .jpg
[11:53] <arunkumar413> hi, i want to add a short cut key to run a python program which i use frequently. how to do it?
[11:54] <introuble> Pici so type f -iname "*.php"  should be type f -iname "*.*"
[11:54] <introuble> ?
[11:55] <Pici> introuble: So it sounds like you want two things to happen.  1) Rename all files and switch abc to xyz and 2) change all code within php files so that abc is now xyz ?
[11:55] <dury> Great for Linux <3 :)
[11:56] <introuble> Pici yes. but i say agian the files may be .php or any other.other
[11:56] <Pici> introuble: Theres no telling what might be in binary files, you could end up corrupting a jpg if you told it to arbitrarily replace text within it.
[11:57] <melvincv> Hi, now I found my bearings :)
[11:59] <introuble> ok.. Pici
[12:00] <Pici> introuble: Anyway, the syntax for renaming recursively would be something like: find /path/ -type f -exec rename 's/abc/xyz/' {} \;
 introuble: Anyway, the syntax for renaming recursively would be something like: find /path/ -type f -exec rename 's/abc/xyz/' {} \;
[12:01] <Pici> bazhang: did I forget something?
[12:01] <Benkinooby> has anyone here a working youtube-plugin for totme?
[12:01] <Benkinooby> totem?
[12:01] <Pici> bazhang: oh, nvm.
[12:01] <bazhang> Pici, he quit just before
[12:02] <bazhang> Benkinooby, for totem? never used it, what about mplayer
[12:02] <dspstv> hi all, if i want to load 2 keyboard maps, i do: setxkbmap ch,es and it works perfectly
[12:02] <dspstv> how can i have that happening always at boot time?
[12:02] <Benkinooby> bazhang, mplayer an play youtube videos?
[12:02] <bazhang> Benkinooby, the downloaded flv? yes
[12:03] <dspstv> i see no .xinitrc, im using gnomne classic under 11.04
[12:03] <melvincv> Hi. I still was not able to get smplayer to work :(  I tried using xv and x11, but to no avail. I have an old Intel 845GL video card. Any ideas?
[12:03] <Pici> Benkinooby: minitube is pretty much a front-end for youtube on the desktop.
[12:03] <bazhang> mplayer will play pretty much everything these days Benkinooby
[12:04] <com64> Pici, I thought that minitube was rendered incompatible due to youtube updating their system?
[12:04] <melvincv> But SMplayer inbuilt in Ubuntu 11.04 does not seem to play any mp4 videos...
[12:05] <bazhang> melvincv, with ubuntu-restricted-extras installed? sure it does
[12:05] <melvincv> When I went to their site, they have support only till 10.04
[12:05] <Pici> com64: I haven't used it in a few months, but it worked fine the last time I tried it.
[12:05] <com64> Pici, strange, it wasn't working for me...
[12:05] <dspstv> before, one defined keyboard layout on xorg.conf.. but now i dont need that file
[12:05] <Benkinooby> bazhang, i want to play the youtube videos directly. totem can browes the video and play thme... but now it cant... i read something about the change of youtube APIs but not sure if this is still up to date
[12:06] <dspstv> where can i add my prefered keyboard map?
[12:06] <dspstv> thats is not just one map but 2
[12:06] <dspstv> setxkbmap ch,es
[12:06] <bazhang> Benkinooby, no idea, sorry, I use the firefox addon download helper to get them and then play via mplayer
[12:07] <dspstv> bazhang: use vlc
[12:07] <bazhang> dspstv, no need
[12:07] <Roey> hi]
[12:07] <com64> Okay, minitube works, nevermind
[12:07] <com64> Just tested it
[12:07] <melvincv> wow, ubuntu-restricted-extras is large. Any smaller packages that allow me to play mp4?
[12:07] <tarzeau> dspstv: swiss german and spanish?
[12:07] <dspstv> tewecske: yes
[12:08] <dspstv> both
[12:08] <com64> Benkinooby, use minitube, it works...
[12:08] <T-cELL32> hey
[12:08] <Benkinooby> com64, just downlaoding it :P
[12:08] <Benkinooby> Pici, thx for the hint
[12:08] <com64> :)
[12:08] <Pici> Benkinooby: np
[12:08] <dspstv> it works perfectly when i run: setxkbmap ch,es
[12:08] <Roey> can anyone help me with this USB earphones problem?  I have this Plantronics USB headphone set that although recognized by the Linux kernel (I can see that through dmesg), and the volume buttons work (they call up this on-screen volume control display), I can't hear anything from them.  Pulseaudio... is that the issue here?
[12:08] <dspstv> but i have to do that manually after every new boot
[12:09] <bazhang> Roey, check alsamixer yet?
[12:09] <dspstv> tarzeau: any idea? i have looked via the forums but only old time solutions
[12:09] <Roey> bazhang:  no go
[12:09] <Roey> bazhang:  all the volumes there are set to 100%.
[12:09] <Roey> bazhang:  I try pavucontrol and get 'connection refused'.
[12:10] <tarzeau> dspstv: i don't know how to use multiple ones. i just use one, that is configured in xorg.conf
[12:10] <dspstv> i might have to create an xorg.conf
[12:10] <dspstv> thx
[12:10] <melvincv> Any smaller packages that allow me to play mp4?
[12:11] <introuble> bazhang thanks
[12:11] <bazhang> melvincv, what about trying to open it, and see if the system prompts to search for codecs
[12:12] <com64> melvincv, try vlc?
[12:12] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[12:12] <Roey> hey again BluesKaj
[12:13] <BluesKaj> hi Roey
[12:13] <Benkinooby> Pici, with minitube the "play" button is grayed out :(
[12:13] <melvincv> Ok, it opened in movie player and the system prompted for 2 gstreamer packages... I'll try vlc next, thanks.
[12:14] <Benkinooby> Pinch,
[12:15] <metabill> I'm trying to use IPv6 in lucid. Can anyone point me to a sane way to use more than one IPv6 address per interface?
[12:15] <Benkinooby> com64, my play button in minitube is grayed out...
[12:15] <com64> search for a video?
[12:16] <com64> lmao workign for me
[12:16] <Belserusk> Of all Ubuntu versions to date; which has been your favorite? Mine would be 10.04
[12:16] <Benkinooby> metabill, i think it is i "pi -6 addr add XXXX dev ethX"
[12:17] <Benkinooby> metabill, there is nothing special youhave to think about when giving your interface an ipv6 address
[12:17] <Benkinooby> afaig
[12:17] <Benkinooby> afaik
[12:17] <introuble> Pici its not changing
[12:17] <introuble> i have typed /path/to/files/ -type f -iname "*.php" -exec sed -i 's/abc/xyz/g' {} \;
[12:17] <xgt001> hi there .... i have broadcom wireless ... its not working even after installing proprietary drivers in 10.04... modprobe wl gives "FATAL: Error inserting wl (/lib/modules/2.6.32-28-generic/updates/dkms/wl.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter"
[12:18] <Pici> introuble: you put 'find' in front of that?
[12:18] <com64> Belserusk, I prefer 11.04 :D
[12:18] <Belserusk> com64, with Unity?
[12:19] <xgt001> Belserusk: 10.04... a lot stable and really fast
[12:19] <usr13> xgt001: Sounds like maybe wrong firmware
[12:19] <Belserusk> xgt001, agreed ^_^

[12:38] <janbanan> Jewfro-Macabbi:  I made my certificate but I cant find they KeyId to insert into Evolution
[12:38] <introuble> Pici why do we use public_html    . if i put my files outside may be at \folder  . what difference will it make. (i want to make files secure) but open for browsing. i have .php web
[12:38] <Jewfro-Macabbi> from the command line: pgp --list-keys

[12:39] <mamo> hi , apt wants to remove two packages, how can I tell it not to?
[12:39] <mamo> i need them since its grub
[12:39] <impiza> any one know how to install ubuntu to a pc using lan as first boot device ?
[12:39] <janbanan> Jewfro-Macabbi:  Thanks!!!  just add a 0x to them?
[12:39] <mamo> impiza: you can netboot your pc but it requires another machine on the network serving those features
[12:39] <usr13> xgt001: Must have been a typo.  Try again.  iwconfig | pastebinit
[12:40] <Jewfro-Macabbi> janbanan, ignore the 0x - your key id are the numbers after
[12:40] <mamo> i think you need tftp and some stuff. Cant give you more info then this but google will
[12:40] <janbanan> Jewfro-Macabbi:  ok, so I add one of them into the Evolution mail client?
[12:40] <xgt001> usr13: nope not a typo it shows, lo, eth0,pan0 and pp0 all as "no wireless extensions"
[12:41] <rooted-insideme> anyone know in vmware how do you get the system to reboot off the cd/.iso file so you can reinstall without deleting the vmware host and readdingit

[12:41] <janbanan> Jewfro-Macabbi:  do I use the 8 digits after the slash or do I need the 1024/ too?
[12:42] <com64> Okay.
[12:42] <usr13> xgt001: Sorry that was a typo on my part.
[12:42] <szal> usr13: ipconfig?
[12:42] <mamo> impiza: is it because you want to install over network? or just boot over network
[12:42] <Jewfro-Macabbi> janbanan, you don't need the 1024/

[12:48] <com64> Benkinooby, you try restarting it?
[12:49] <dell> releases.ubuntu.com is not working. I started to download using jdownload which creates 2 chunks. Now I can't continue with wget.
[12:49] <Benkinooby> com64, yes

[12:49] <bobbyd> quup: I use htop and turn on tree view to inspect remote machines
[12:49] <rcconf> why im downloading sun-java from a slow repository
[12:49] <xangua> dell: you can try a torrent
[12:50] <usr13> xgt001: You said that the wifi device worked before you installed linux-backport-modules-compat-wireless-2.6.36 for bluetooth?  Am I understanding properly?
[12:50] <dell> My download is almost complete 97 %. Internet here is slow
[12:50] <xgt001> usr13: yes ,
[12:50] <xgt001> usr13: i cant remove that because i am mostly online from bluetooth
[12:50] <dell> http://releases.ubuntu.com//natty/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-amd64.iso does not work
[12:51] <usr13> xgt001: pastebilnit is an application that will automatically paste files or output.  See man pastebinit
[12:52] <usr13> xgt001: Sorry, I sent that last one my mistake.
[12:52] <venol> helo, I'm use mailgraph to monitoring mail server,  If I send an email it gets counted as sent. It also gets counted as Received". Is this normal?
[12:53] <rcconf> dell: http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-amd64.iso works for me
[12:53] <mamo> jrib: hmm that doesent seem to be it. This seems to be a bug of some kind.
[12:53] <xgt001> xgt001: is there a way i can install the backport without disturbing the wifi module
[12:53] <jrib> mamo: can you pastebin what you see in your terminal?
[12:53] <dell> really. May be it is us.releases.ubuntu or something like that. I want without any prefix
[12:53] <mamo> this is a fresh install. So the installer installed the grub efi package for me. Now that i reboot into the real os it wants to remove grub efi and install grub-pc
[12:53] <mamo> jrib: will do
[12:54] <xgt001> sorry usr13: is there a way i can install the backport without disturbing the wifi module
[12:54] <usr13> xgt001: Well, I don't know for sure what to do in your situation.  I will tell you this though.  The only time I really trashed a Ubuntu systems was with backports.  I have no idea why a bluetooth driver (from backports) would cause your wifi device to quit working, but apparently it does.  I don't know of any way to fix it.  Sorry.
[12:55] <xgt001> usr13: it was a wireless backport to be precise
[12:55] <usr13> xgt001: Maybe someone else on here can give you some advise.
[12:55] <usr13> xgt001: You enabled backports on the package manager to get it.  Right?
[12:55] <mamo> jrib: http://pastebin.com/4fX5Dtdu
[12:56] <xgt001> usr13: yes
[12:57] <usr13> xgt001: I can only guess... But it is possible that if you uninstall linux-backports-modules-compat-wireless-2.6.36 your wifi device may work again.  Only a guess, but you could try and see.
[12:58] <dell> releases.ubuntu.com Unable to load the webpage because the server sent no data
[12:58] <xgt001> usr13: yes it will work but tat will put me in a fix where i have to choose either bluetooth or wifi
[12:58] <jrib> mamo: I somehow thought you were using aptitude :P
[12:58] <mamo> jrib: i was using apt at first
[12:59] <mamo> aptitude gave more interaction
[12:59] <janbanan> Can  I please try to mail someone with PGP encryption? I need to see if my system works
[12:59] <mamo> jrib: they both want to remove the package though
[12:59] <shingen> janbanan: create yourself a yahoo or google account to test with
[12:59] <jrib> mamo: you're on an intel mac?
[12:59] <janbanan> shingen, ok. I get a error in Ecolution, can you try to help me?
[12:59] <mamo> yup
[13:00] <shingen> my headless server died... removed hdd, trying to boot in vbox but I get nothing.  where can I start with troubleshooting boot issues?
[13:00] <jrib> mamo: and using grub only (no rEFIt or bootcamp)?
[13:00] <mamo> jrib : getting it to tripple boot all my os:es has not been an easy ride :)
[13:00] <shingen> janbanan: sorry, I don't use evolution
[13:00] <mamo> i use bootcamp for windows
[13:00] <mamo> jrib: and refit as well to get all my oses in a nice menu
[13:00] <jrib> mamo: I don't think you need grub-efi, let me check my macbook
[13:01] <janbanan> shingen, maybe you understand the errors? Can I message you with the errors?
[13:01] <xgt001> usr13: when i try modprobe wl it shows "FATAL: Error inserting wl (/lib/modules/2.6.32-28-generic/updates/dkms/wl.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)"
[13:01] <shingen> janbanan: sorry,  I have my own issues which nobody has responded too
[13:01] <mamo> jrib: thnx.  I actually removed it last time around. It wouldnt boot anymore. not in efi mode at least. I kind of want to boot my mac in efi mode
[13:01] <jrib> mamo: though if you tell apt-get to not install recommends you can probably dist-upgrade fine
[13:02] <ptl1977> does anyone know of a good deduplication method or program?
[13:02] <soumya> hiiiiiii
[13:03] <jrib> mamo: yeah I just have grub-pc on my macbook (probably because of the same annoyance you're currently facing :P)
[13:03] <mamo> jrib: i have a 15" with efi i can pick wich gfx card I want. thats why i need it.
[13:03] <dell> site seems to be working but the download won't start. I need more 19MB
[13:03] <mamo> jrib: thanks alot for your support so far!
[13:03] <usr13> xgt001: You said when you "try modporbe wl it shows fatal Error"   What was that all about?
[13:04] <xgt001> usr13: i mean when i did "modprobe wl" it gave me ..." "FATAL: Error inserting wl (/lib/modules/2.6.32-28-generic/updates/dkms/wl.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)""
[13:05] <mamo> xgt001: what does uname tell you?
[13:05] <mamo> xgt001: type uname -a
[13:05] <jrib> mamo: I think your two options are to either run dist-upgrade without recommends or to upgrade the kernel first and explicitly request grub-efi: apt-get install linux-imageWHATEVER grub-efi
[13:06] <xgt001> mamo: Linux ganesh-laptop 2.6.32-28-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jan 10 21:21:01 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux

[13:06] <jrib> mamo: here is a friend for you: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/800910
[13:06] <johnm> xgt001: I don't have the dkms bin or man page to hand, but try "dkms build wl" and try again
[13:07] <usr13> xgt001: Is this a laptop or a desktop?
[13:07] <johnm> xgt001: actually I think you need to isntall the build afterwards, so "dkms install wl" after that, and then try again ;)
[13:08] <xgt001> usr13: laptop johnm: thx wil try now
[13:08] <ichbinder> hello. Is there a history of Ubuntu's Update Manager? Since I used the update manager yesterday, some of my projects using opencv are making trouble... so I wanted to check if it has been updated.
[13:08] <mamo> jrib: you are like a god! , did some googling before coming in here. Thanx!
[13:09] <Pici> ichbinder: /var/log/dpkg.log includes all packages installed/updated
[13:09] <ichbinder> Pici: ah, thanks!
[13:09] <jrib> mamo: "apt-get ubuntu grub-efi recommends grub-pc" was the magic incantation
[13:10] <mamo> ravidar: it seems its been fixed not sure if that means the package is official. Ill just wait with dist-upgrading for a couple of days to see if i get it
[13:10] <xgt001> johnm: it shows error in number of parameters
[13:10] <usr13> xgt001: http://www.broadcom.com/docs/linux_sta/README.txt
[13:11] <usr13> xgt001: Is the instructions you used $^^^^^
[13:11] <johnm> xgt001: man dkms, I don't have it to hand, dkms build -m wl? does it need a version? :)
[13:11] <johnm> usr13: it's a dkms orientated module, so almost certainly not:)
[13:11] <mamo> jrib: or ill just remove recomends temporarily. Anyway thnx again
[13:12] <jrib> mamo: no problem
[13:12] <usr13> xgt001: I saw http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1761812  which lead me to http://www.broadcom.com/docs/linux_sta/README.txt
[13:12] <ichbinder> so weird: I had a script that was running a binary for a number of possible argument combinations. The code was using opencv's SVD. During the update, which didn't update opencv itself, the script suddenly gave me a segfault and does so since then... :(
[13:12] <ichbinder> and it happens when calling cv::SVD()... maybe something for #opencv
[13:13] <edbian> ichbinder: Is the script seg faulting or the binary?
[13:13] <ichbinder> edbian: the binary
[13:13] <edbian> ichbinder: stl ?
[13:13] <ichbinder> edbian: somewhere in cv::SVD
[13:13] <xgt001> johnm: i did dkms build -m wl it shows invalid module
[13:14] <edbian> ichbinder: mmm, IDK :)
[13:14] <johnm> xgt001: specify a version? check the man page :)
[13:14] <johnm> "man dkms"
[13:14] <ichbinder> edbian: yeah... pretty stupid. :(
[13:14] <johnm> http://linux.dell.com/dkms/manpage.html - looks like you do indeed need a version
[13:15] <johnm> check out /var/dkms/wl/* for a list of versions
[13:15] <usr13> xgt001: Is this a 64bit or 32bit system?
[13:15] <niravana> I used alternate install CD, how do I remove graphical login just like ubuntu-server edition has console login?
[13:15] <xgt001> by the way i installed only compat-wireless backport, should i install the remaining wireless backports also? is it the reason?
[13:16] <onca> what is the toolbar called? I have an issue where the font is too dark and I can't seem to change it.
[13:16] <niravana> i removed ubuntu-desktop, xorg, gdm, but still no luck getting console login
[13:16] <Layke> Whats a browser I can use from SSH?
[13:16] <onca> so, when an application is maximized the file menus end up there but they're grey as is the toolbar.
[13:16] <shingen> blargh, my grub got hosed... wtf
[13:16] <usr13> Layke: lynx
[13:16] <niravana> Layke: links, lynx
[13:16] <jink> Layke: lynx / w3m / elinks / whatever
[13:17] <Layke> Cheers. w3m was the one thats already on the system. I couldn't remember it.
[13:17] <Layke> Lynx was missing when I tried.
[13:17] <jink> What did I win? :)

[13:22] <benedict__> hi, can some1 with ubuntu 10.04 install minitube and tell me if it works?
[13:22] <benedict__> minitube is in the repos
[13:22] <xangua> benedict__: add minitube PPA
[13:22] <xangua> https://launchpad.net/~ferramroberto/+archive/minitube
[13:22] <benedict__> xangua, are you using the ppa?
[13:23] <dyd> how can i list the folders that a certain server shares in lan?
[13:23] <xangua> benedict__: i do not use minitube
[13:23] <rooted-insideme> does this look correct for port forwarding with iptables http://paste.ubuntu.com/643240/
[13:23] <onca> anyone familiar with gnome's panel at the top of the screen, it's fonts are too dark and I can't read them
[13:23] <rooted-insideme> I do have ipt=/sbin/iptables inside the scrpt at the top
[13:23] <dyd> ok done
[13:25] <usr13> dyd: What was your solution?
[13:26] <dyd> usr13: places -> network :)
[13:26] <dyd> usr13: btw is there a way to see shares by command line?
[13:26] <usr13> dyd: Ok good.  I was thinking if it were nfs you'd find them in /etc/exports
[13:27] <melvincv> Hi all, I need a good download manager for Natty.
[13:27] <usr13> dyd: cat /etc/exports  ?
[13:27] <benedict__> Pici, what ubuntu do you use? and do you use the minitube ppa?
[13:27] <xgt001> melvincv: try commandline wget
[13:27] <dyd> usr13: the shares are from another server
[13:28] <melvincv> wget supports multiple connections?
[13:28] <xgt001> melvincv: yes
[13:28] <usr13> dyd: less /etc/fstab
[13:28] <usr13> dyd: Just guessing.  Don't know how you have them mounted.
[13:29] <usr13> dyd: mount
[13:29] <melvincv> Good. Some links copied from the browser end with random characters. The browser resolves and gets the correct link. How may I do this when I use wget?
[13:29] <rumba> Lemme guess... build-essential is a meta-package that only installs other packages. Right?
[13:30] <usr13> dyd: Do you see them in the output of mount ?
[13:31] <tzhuang> hello. can anyone tell me how i can remove the transparent panel in middle right side of this screen?
[13:31] <tzhuang> for ibus input
[13:31] <tzhuang> http://img37.imageshack.us/img37/5233/screenshotiwi.png
[13:34] <usr13> rumba: Ubuntu does not come with the tools required to compile from source and build packages from "tarballs".  Installing build-essential solves that for you.
[13:34] <melvincv> .
[13:35] <rumba> But what happens if I install that package? Will the packages from here http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/build-essential be installed?
[13:36] <brainwave92> rumba,  if you install that package, you can build all programs when you have the source package
[13:36] <melvincv> For example, how do I download this link with wget? It's an mp3. http://link1.songs.pk/song1.php?songid=8520
[13:36] <rumba> melvincv: wget http://link1.songs.pk/song1.php?songid=8520
[13:36] <Pici> rumba: yes, but replace dapper with a release that is actually supported.
[13:37] <rumba> Pici: Ok, thanks
[13:37] <iceroot> melvincv: wget "url" instead of wget url.  "" is trying to resolf the link
[13:37] <melvincv> Great! Thanks! I'll try that out.
[13:38] <coolwind> heool
[13:38] <coolwind> hello
[13:38] <Parameter> hello
[13:39] <usr13> rumba: apt-cache showpkg build-essential
[13:39] <melvincv> It works! But how many connections is wget making by default?
[13:39] <brainwave92> coolwind, you'll be in trouble with more hellos!
[13:40] <edGe06> hey guys, got a question about mail. I installed mailutils and i can get mail (from cron) but I was wondering.. how do i delete these messages? thanks
[13:41] <llutz> edGe06: press "d"
[13:42] <edGe06> llutz yeah i tried that.. i pressed d until it said "No applicable messages".. so i did exit, then when i go back into mail, theyre still there :/
[13:45] <Cube``> guys, why do i get this: The following packages have been kept back: linux-generic linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic
[13:45] <benedict__> anyone with ubuntu 10.04 know software that plays videos from youtube? minitube and totem could but i think the youtube api is changed so i would have to go for PPAs (don'T want, once killed my system) and vlc could too if i used a PPA. so is there software that does what i want out of the box?
[13:46] <Cube``> i cant get to install them, not even using the gui package manager
[13:47] <xangua> benedict__: already updated minitube with the ppa¿
[13:47] <melvincv> Hi, how do I change the no. of connections to the download server in wget? This is essential in a download accelerator, right?
[13:48] <usr13> benedict__: So wht goal is to play youtube videos in some other way rather than via a browser?
[13:49] <benedict__> xangua, no, as i said before, i once messed with PPAs and ended up with a messy system. i'd rather look for alternatives before playing with ppas
[13:49] <benedict__> usr13, yes
[13:49] <sipior> melvincv: wget is not a download accelerator.
[13:49] <rumba> usr13: thanks
[13:50] <KNUBBIG> is it possible to run emerald with unity?
[13:50] <benedict__> usr13, earlier i did it with vlc, but in ubuntu 10.04 it's not at the version vlc needs to play youtube (further on, if you make a youtube playlist in vlc the playlist will be modified by vlc)
[13:50] <melvincv> Oh, I see. I need a download accelerator then.
[13:50] <usr13> benedict__: Well, if you just download the flash video files, you can view them how ever you want.  Right?  Or do you still want to view them in a streaming fashion?
[13:50] <xangua> KNUBBIG: i believe no
[13:50] <benedict__> usr13, then i tried totem but never got anywhere and today i was told about minitube, which  seems to work flawlessly in ubuntu 11
[13:51] <blinkyb> hi. I can't see the Sound control on the taskbar! i can't adjust sound :/
[13:51] <KNUBBIG> xangua: ok that matches my experience, thanks :D
[13:51] <benedict__> usr13, i want to stream them. the perfect thign would be: open the programm, enter what i search for, see the suggestions of youtube, choose on and play it
[13:52] <systemd0wn> benedict__: Lol. Like in firefox?
[13:52] <benedict__> systemd0wn, yes. and it works, at least in minitube and totem
[13:53] <benedict__> systemd0wn, but it seems that things work better in ubuntu 11 than in 10.04
[13:55] <benedict__> systemd0wn, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abLOxZPIPcI from 1:50 on
[13:55] <benedict__> to see a showcase
[13:55] <eraggo> it's weird that my small aiptek drawing board works in fedora just right but in ubuntu it works weirdly :(
[13:56] <wamicho> my mysql server brings this error whenever i try to log in ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)  what is this
[13:56] <mgolisch> wamicho: its not running?
[13:57] <wamicho> mgolisch  it is running
[13:57] <mgolisch> wamicho: you sure?
[13:57] <mgolisch> wamicho: where does it give that error? and how do you connect?
