[06:54] <ch33z> "apache2: could not reliabily determine the servers fully quallified domain name using <IP_ADDRESS> for ServerName"
[06:54] <Ben64> i have two servers running apache
[06:54] <Blue1> makes sense
[06:55] <ch33z> Ben64, any ideas?
[06:55] <Ben64> ch33z: read up on apache vhosts and configs

[06:55] <Blue1> zyracksis: what version of ubuntu?
[06:55] <zyracksis> 11.10
[06:55] <Blue1> zyracksis: gnome, unity, or?
[06:56] <zyracksis> Unity
[06:56] <Blue1> zyracksis: not sure how to fix that in unity, but in gnome, piece of cake.
[06:57] <hartley> is there an event viewer type program i can use? got my crystalhd card finally running, but im getting system freezes with some hd flash videos.
[06:57] <ch33z> Ben64 where are the vhosts apache and configs area on the guide? thanks
[06:57] <zyracksis> I might have to switch to gnome if I can't fix this
[06:57] <Ben64> ch33z: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/
[06:58] <Blue1> hartley: dmesg or sudo tail -f /var/log/messages

[06:58] <incognito> can anyone help?
[06:58] <Blue1> zyracksis: i had problems with unity - so I am using gnome
[06:58] <hartley> Blue1 thanks.
[06:58] <Ben64> incognito: you need to upgrade
[06:58] <Blue1> hartley: welcome
[06:58] <urfr332g0> incognito, that release is end of life.
[06:59] <incognito> is that the problem?
[06:59] <Ben64> its a problem
[06:59] <incognito> sorry lol, i just got back into Linux ;x
[06:59] <ch33z> thanks
[06:59] <Ben64> it stopped being supported april 2011
[06:59] <urfr332g0> incognito, yeah not supported.
[07:00] <Blue1> holy cow almost midnight - I turn back into a pumpkin
[07:00] <hartley> Blue1 is there a way to view dmesg from a previous session. with the system freeze, i have to manually reboot.
[07:01] <incognito> Ahh
[07:01] <incognito> I upgraded from 9.10 lol
[07:01] <Blue1> hartley: usually you can tail the last x number of lines, and pipe that into more
[07:01] <incognito> it says something about fresh install, don't upgrade? ;x
[07:02] <Blue1> hartley: something like:  sudo tail -150 /var/log/vsftpd.log | more
[07:02] <urfr332g0> incognito, your thread says your running 9.10 are you?
[07:02] <Blue1> or some number bigger then 150
[07:02] <hartley> no such file
[07:02] <Blue1> oops
[07:02] <incognito> No, i upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04
[07:02] <incognito> sorry i have to edit my post lol it's late
[07:03] <Blue1> oops
[07:03] <urfr332g0> incognito, 10.04 is supported
[07:03] <incognito> there we go
[07:03] <blub0x> byez
[07:03] <incognito> yeah, i'm on 10.04 but my audio is messed up
[07:03] <cfhowlett> incognito 10.04 is supported for another 14 months...
[07:03] <Blue1> hartley: sudo tail -150 /var/log/messages | more
[07:03] <incognito> my problem isnt having a supported os
[07:04] <incognito> i'm trying to figure out why my audio is messing up
[07:04] <hartley> Blue1, no file there either.\
[07:04] <incognito> when i load a game called runescape into my firefox/chrome, it stops the audio of my rhythmbox
[07:04] <hartley> running lubuntu 11.10
[07:04] <chris__> Ive noticed that nmap does not support grep, is there a fix?
[07:04] <Blue1> g\]\\\+
[07:04] <incognito> but my firefox/chrome both don't show up my playback devices on my 'pulseaudio volume controller'
[07:04] <Blue1> hartley really?
[07:04] <Blue1> really
[07:04] <ZorroT> anybody got a pointer to how to configure language foo to be handled by apache2 in current ubuntu?
[07:04] <ZorroT> <- sucks at apache
[07:05] <incognito> Would anyone be able to help?
[07:05] <Blue1> hartley: tested here works find
[07:05] <Blue1> hartley: i find it out that you would have no /var/log/messages
[07:06] <ZorroT> incognito: do other flash / browser media apps cause this behavior?
[07:06] <ZorroT> eg, youtube
[07:06] <hartley> yeah, im in the var/log/ now. no messages
[07:06] <Blue1> hartley: so if you do a ls there is no messages file?
[07:06] <m-16> олень
[07:07] <hartley> Blue1 but i do have previous dmesg files. Nope, no messages file
[07:07] <Blue1> !russian | m-16
[07:07] <bazhang> !ru | m-16
[07:07] <zyracksis> Blue1: Sorry to bother you again. I just switched to gnome and have the same problem
[07:07] <incognito> zorrot, i haven't tried. should i download another music player?
[07:07] <hartley> dmesg.0 dmesg.1.gz etc etc
[07:07] <ZorroT> incognito: go to youtube and see if you have the same problem
[07:07] <incognito> well, when i play this game, my youtube doesn't stream audio either
[07:07] <incognito> ok one sec
[07:07] <chris__> nevermind, I made a stupid mistake
[07:07] <Blue1> zyracksis: try rm -r .gconf* then logout/back in
[07:08] <dipix> incognito, in terminal type the following: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get autoremove
[07:08] <hartley> Blue1 thanks though. the log folder is good enough. i can scroll through the previous dmesg and lxdm logs and look for errors.
[07:08] <Blue1> hartley: humour me -- do a cat /etc/issue
[07:08] <incognito> zonum: no audio on youtube either
[07:09] <zyracksis> Blue1: No change
[07:09] <incognito> zorrot*
[07:09] <hartley> Blue1  Ubuntu 11.10 \n \l
[07:09] <ZorroT> incognito:
[07:09] <ZorroT> so you're getting no audio in the browser?
[07:09] <Blue1> hartley: okay they must have changed something in 110.10 I don't know about....
[07:09] <incognito> i have audio for my game, no audio for youtube
[07:09] <incognito> and its in the same browser
[07:09] <ZorroT> is the volume turned up in the youtube player?
[07:09] <incognito> yes
[07:09] <incognito> lol
[07:09] <Blue1> zyracksis: okay try restarting the gdm
[07:09] <ZorroT> ok, just checking :-)
[07:10] <Blue1> zyracksis: sudo service gdm restart
[07:10] <brightspark>
[07:10] <mattyf> hi guys, how can I get 'nodejs' to run when I type just 'node' in the shell?
[07:10] <incognito> dipix: ran those commands
[07:10] <dr_willis> w3e got more silly on join spam by -  acceptance
[07:10] <hartley> Blue1 its ok. thanks anyways. like i said, ill just go through the logs that are here and look for info.
[07:10] <dipix> Incognito, did it work?
[07:10] <ZorroT> incognito: doing a little research to see what i can find: you've tried browsers other than firefox, eg, chrome?
[07:11] <incognito> only 1 package had to be upgraded xulrunner
[07:11] <ZorroT> was it working before the upgrade?
[07:11] <brightspark> mattyf, alias?
[07:11] <dr_willis> mattyf:  make a script. or alias
[07:11] <incognito> no i havent zorrot, just firefox, and then i went to chrome
[07:11] <Blue1> hartley: okay.  I have never seen a *nix system w/o /var/log/messages
[07:11] <zyracksis> Blue1: "gdm: unrecognised service"
[07:11] <ZorroT> so it did not work in chrome or firefox.
[07:11] <ZorroT> ok
[07:11] <mattyf> sorry, am new to linux, will search for alias now - thanks!
[07:11] <incognito> and i didnt try before the upgrade, i just knew 9.10 was outdated so i had to update
[07:11] <Blue1> zyracksis: what version of ubuntu?
[07:11] <ZorroT> but it rhythmbox is working?
[07:11] <zyracksis> Blue1: 11.10
[07:11] <incognito> when i dont have any browsers up, yes rhythmbox plays music fine
[07:12] <petroid> Неподскажите чем отлечается дестрибутив убунту 11.10 от 12.04?
[07:12] <ZorroT> ok, so you've done like a big dist upgrade
[07:12] <ZorroT> ok
[07:12] <ZorroT> i saw something about your problem for ubuntu 9.1
[07:12] <incognito> yes, from 9.10 to 10.04 lts
[07:12] <Blue1> zyracksis: okay let me think what the gdm is called in 11.10
[07:12] <ZorroT> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1136182
[07:12] <dr_willis> 11.10 uses lightdm by default
[07:12] <bazhang> !upgrade | petroid
[07:12] <urfr332g0> !gr | petroid
[07:13] <ZorroT> the only reply suggests double-checking your sound / mixer settings
[07:13] <Blue1> dr_willis: thanks
[07:13] <bazhang> petroid, its english here, russian in #ubuntu-ru
[07:13] <brightspark> mattyf, "alias node=nodejs".  If you want it to persist across login, put it in your .bashrc
[07:13] <ZorroT> and sometimes those can be trickier than they look :-)
[07:13] <ZorroT> mattyf: rockin' node?
[07:13] <incognito> zorrot: my exact problem lol
[07:13] <cfhowlett> bazhang   what you see that tells you ru - all I see is zapgat salad...
[07:13] <ZorroT> mattfy: for a good time, call couchdb :-)
[07:14] <zyracksis> Blue1: Just tried lightdm, no luck there either
[07:14] <Blue1> zyracksis: so you willneed to restart that -- sudo service lightdm restart -- you should have to relogin, and that should re-create the files.
[07:14] <mattyf> thanks brightspark! yeah ZorroT - learning nodejs, expressjs, jade (haml) and sass today
[07:14] <bazhang> cfhowlett, his .ru host for one
[07:14] <mattyf> and couchdb apparrently ;)
[07:14] <Blue1> zyracksis: you can try gdm3 but I am 99% sure thats debian
[07:14] <incognito> ZorroT: one second, i'm going to have a look at it.
[07:14] <cfhowlett> bazhang   ah.
[07:14] <petroid> Do not tell me what  11.10 to 12.04?
[07:14] <ZorroT> mattyf: couchdb uses json objects over http as the interface. so you can bump straight from node and get native answers -- no futzing with interpreting database-ese.
[07:15] <zyracksis> Blue1: LightDM restarted, but it didnt fix the problem
[07:15] <bazhang> petroid, I gave you a link on how to upgrade
[07:15] <Blue1> zyracksis: did you select gnome when you logged back in?
 Thanks
[07:15] <chris__> can grep be used to remove unwanted text from a line?
[07:15] <petroid> :)
[07:16] <su22> how do I view the contents of a disc burnt in Apple formats..It contains iDeneb?
[07:16] <zyracksis> Blue1: Yes
[07:16] <dipix> Incognito, I've just found a thread about your issue, it seems that java is causing the problem, no effective solution yet. I'll keep digging
[07:16] <dr_willis> chris__:  sed or awk normally for that
[07:16] <ZorroT> mattyf: http://jsconf.eu/2010/speaker/nodejs_couchdb_crazy_delicious.html
[07:16] <ZorroT> incognito: good luck :-)
[07:16] <incognito> thanks dipix, i'm going to check the link that zorrot posted to me about applications having direct access to alsa
[07:17] <Blue1> zyracksis: for me, when gnome panel gets hosed, I nuke the gconf files, restart the gdm log back in, and re-creates them -- I dunno what they did in 11.10 not running that version.
[07:17] <incognito> then gonna try to run it through pulseaudio before it gets to alsa, ill let you know :)
[07:17] <zyracksis> Blue1: Alright. Thanks for all your help. I'll see what I can get done with some more googling
[07:17] <chris__> I have a list as follows Host <IP_ADDRESS> is up (0.79s latency).
[07:17] <chris__> Host <IP_ADDRESS> is up (0.0020s latency).
[07:17] <chris__> Host <IP_ADDRESS> is up (0.00012s latency).
[07:17] <chris__> Host <IP_ADDRESS> is up (0.0061s latency).
[07:17] <chris__> , I would like to strip it to 1 address per line
[07:17] <FloodBot1> chris__: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:17] <Blue1> zyracksis: :-(
[07:17] <chris__> would that be sed or awk?
[07:18] <dr_willis> chris__:  awk can do that
[07:18] <lotuspsychje> howto hide fast userswitching in main bar
[07:19] <incognito> I'll be right back fellas.
[07:20] <dr_willis> lotuspsychje:  the webupd8 blog site has lots of tweaks and tips.
[07:20] <dipix> Incognito, can you check if you have these two: sun-java6-jdk, sun-java6-jre
[07:20] <brightspark> chris, in awk, you can set your field separator to <space> and print the second field in each line.  that would strip it just down to the address
[07:20] <lotuspsychje> dr_willis: ok great lemme take a look
[07:20] <brightspark> chris__, ^^
[07:20] <chris__> yes
[07:22] <chris__> trying to figure out how to do this, im at nmap -sP <IP_ADDRESS>-10 | grep Host | cut -d "Host" | awk"
[07:22] <chris__> oops
[07:22] <chris__> trying to figure out how to do this, im at nmap -sP <IP_ADDRESS>-10 | grep Host | awk
[07:24] <chris__> Im not understanding awk at the moment
[07:24] <brightspark> chris__, nmap -sP <IP_ADDRESS>-10 | grep Host | awk '{print $2}'
[07:24] <lotuspsychje> !info gnome-tweak-tool
[07:24] <chris__> what is $2?
[07:25] <brightspark> chris__, the second field.  awk treats spaces as separators by default.
[07:25] <chris__> that makes more sense
[07:25] <brightspark> so the first field is "Host", the second is <IP_ADDRESS>, the third is "is", etc
[07:26] <chris__> is there going to be problems with the $ in php?
[07:26] <chris__> yep
[07:27] <brightspark> chris__, I've never touched php.  If you're embedding it in a string, most languages require you to escape it
[07:27] <chris__> I was doing $computerstatus = shell_exec('nmap -sP <IP_ADDRESS>-100 | grep Host | awk {print $2}');
[07:27] <chris__> in php a $ means a variable
[07:28] <lotuspsychje> dr_willis: tnx i found it here: http://www.webupd8.org/2011/10/things-to-tweak-after-installing-ubuntu.html
[07:29] <brightspark> chris__, In many situations, you can just put a backslash in front of the $ and it will work
[07:30] <chris__> okay it wasnt the $ it was actually the '
[07:30] <brightspark> chris__, you will also need to precede the space after "print" with a backslash as you removed my quotes
[07:30] <chris__> its fixed now
[07:30] <brightspark> yup you got it
[07:30] <chris__> its $computerstatus = shell_exec('nmap -sP <IP_ADDRESS>-100 | grep Host | awk \'{print $2}\'');
[07:31] <chris__> im a bit new, I have been teaching myself
[07:31] <brightspark> best way to learn
[07:31] <chris__> Ive actually set up a computer lab of ubuntu on 25 computers
[07:31] <chris__> I can shut then all down with the click of one button
[07:32] <chris__> today, im improving it by not shuting down the computers that are not on, and It will let me know which computers are on
[07:33] <chris__> Im sure you could have done it in 5 minutes, but it took me an entire month to do
[07:34] <chris__> you all took 15 lines of code that took me hours to make and made it into two lines

[07:38] <urfr332g0> !info jigdo
[07:39] <zykotick9> adminewb: if jigdo isn't working for you, why not use the torrent instead?
[07:39] <adminewb> that would be the fallback
[07:40] <brightspark> zyracksis, did you change your theme recently?
[07:40] <adminewb> the disadvantage being, torrents don't operate on the principle of sending what you haven't already got (incremental change)
[07:40] <zyracksis> brightspark: I changed my background, but not my theme
[07:41] <adminewb> oh well
[07:41] <brightspark> zyracksis, it looks like you selected a theme in a temporary folder or removable media.  does the problem still happen with xfce?
[07:41] <brightspark> if you have that resource available
[07:42] <zyracksis> brightspark: Haven't tried xfce, I'll give it a shot
[07:42] <brightspark> or see if the theme is indeed at fault first
[07:43] <zyracksis> brightspark: Changing my theme between the default ones doesn't do anything
[07:43] <brightspark> zyracksis, is there the option to modify the theme in the current version?  (i'm on meerkat)

[07:45] <brightspark> zyracksis, it allows you to change the icon theme independently of the rest of the theme
[07:45] <zyracksis> brightspark: I don't have it
[07:46] <brightspark> zyracksis, sorry.  Anyone know how to change icon themes in the new version?
[07:46] <sharafjaffri> #Haystack
[07:46] <dr_willis> gnome tweak tool can do tht i think brightspark
[07:47] <brightspark> zyracksis, I would try the tool dr_willis mentioned first as it is less invasive than a whole new DE.
[07:48] <dr_willis> ubuntu-tweak also has icon settings i think
[07:48] <brightspark> What on earth prompts gnome to keep removing functionality?
[07:49] <dr_willis> user frirndlyness
[07:50] <brightspark> It's in a configuration menu, and even then you have to launch another configuration menu to find it.  It's not exactly intimidating to anyone who doesn't go looking for it.
[07:52] <brightspark> future release- gnome's option menu consists of one set of two radio buttons, one to select the canonical purple theme and the other to select ubuntu orange.
[08:03] <dr_willis> you havent looked at the screen saver config options in gnome 2 lately... ;)

[08:17] <svrnmnd> just pretend its 10.04?
[08:17] <svrnmnd> penetration testing
[08:17] <iceroot> svrnmnd: not supported here
[08:17] <Abhijit> svrnmnd, technically we cant pretend
[08:18] <dr_willis> if its a live cd. its using some premade user.
[08:18] <svrnmnd> okay so Im running ubuntu 10.04 and im having some permission problems
[08:18] <svrnmnd> dr_willis: I installed it
[08:19] <Abhijit> svrnmnd, but we know you dont! :-p please use nodesero irc, forum or mailing list for (sure) and better support
[08:19] <iceroot> svrnmnd: its not supported here
[08:19] <dr_willis> check your file/dir permissions.    is about all i can suggest.
[08:19] <dr_willis> linux basics. ;)
[08:19] <iceroot> svrnmnd: we dont know the differences, someone said its with a special user, we dont know anything about that user and the permissions of that user
[08:20] <iceroot> svrnmnd: and because you are using this special user, we can not and will not support it here, please ask there channel
[08:20] <svrnmnd> dr_willis : how would I do this? i did it by right clicking and going to properties, but I was unable to change the settings of /home folder doing that
[08:20] <llutz> dr_willis: since when do 1337 pentesterd need basic knowledge?
[08:20] <dr_willis> svrnmnd:  used home dir. not /home/
[08:20] <borillion> I have a NAS  that I have ssh'ed  into, fdisk shows that the drives inside are formatted as ext3, but when I try and mount an external ext3 drive it says 'mount /dev/sdc1 pn /mnt/tempmnt failed: invalid argument
[08:20] <dr_willis> users home.. not /home
[08:20] <svrnmnd> llutz: am in no way 1337
[08:20] <iceroot> svrnmnd: /home/username  never!! change something in /home directly
[08:21] <Emmanuel_Chanel> Hello! I cannot make an IMAP folder on evolution. How can I?
[08:21] <iceroot> svrnmnd: and /home/username should have write-permissions for the current user you are logged in
[08:21] <dr_willis> borillion:  what mount command are you using
[08:21] <iceroot> svrnmnd: if not, ask the channel of your distro
[08:22] <iceroot> borillion: pn?
[08:22] <borillion> dr_willis, mount -t ext3 /dev/sdc1 /mnt/tempmnt -o ro
[08:22] <Marty1> Question: how can I preserve file-timestamps whilst copying to a Windows 7 share (cifs mount)? cp -a or cp --preserve=timestamps does only work on empty files and directories?
[08:22] <svrnmnd> anyone have the terminal command to change the permissions also @iceroot: where can I find my distro's channel...im pretty sure it was made in czetch rep.
[08:22] <iceroot> !alis | svrnmnd
[08:23] <borillion> iceroot, whats pn ?
[08:23] <iceroot> svrnmnd: chmod will change the permissions, chown to change the owner
[08:23] <dr_willis> borillion:  whats the exact error?
[08:23] <iceroot> borillion: /dev/sdc1 pn /mnt/tempmnt failed: invalid argument
[08:23] <apt-getter> I tried it, but it doesn't work. I have accelerometre data where I want to create 3 files, one for x, one for y, one for z, and this is what my code is: http://pastebin.com/yqt33Pvx  Basically it reads all the data the accelerometre reads using cat, and appends a new value every 0.5 os a second. Help is appreciated. Ty.
[08:23] <iceroot> borillion: where does that "pn" came from
[08:23] <borillion> oh pn was typo
[08:23] <thegladiator> !iso
[08:23] <borillion> lol
[08:23] <borillion> I didnt even see that
[08:24] <dr_willis> and make sure the mount point exists. ;)
[08:24] <borillion> it does
[08:24] <iceroot> borillion: please always copy the commands/messages instead of writing them y hand
[08:24] <dr_willis> try without the -o
[08:24] <Marty1> #help
[08:24] <dr_willis> dosent -o need to be befor the other info.
[08:25] <svrnmnd> Iceroot: my home folder is my exact username  ... what command do I need to change the permissions to RW?
[08:25] <Abhijit> Marty1, ask
[08:25] <borillion> iceroot, I try to do that but, its on a isolated network
[08:25] <iceroot> !permissions | svrnmnd
[08:25] <iceroot> borillion: ah ok
[08:25] <iceroot> svrnmnd: chmod o+w filename  for example
[08:26] <borillion> dr_willis, I was under the impression that modifiers can be placed in any location on the command line, it usually works and was told you could do that
[08:26] <Marty1> Question: how can I preserve file-timestamps whilst copying to a Windows 7 share (cifs mount)? cp -a or cp --preserve=timestamps does only work on empty files and directories?
[08:26] <dr_willis> borillion:  try without it.. and see
[08:26] <iceroot> svrnmnd: please ask your distro channel, something seems to be wrong, the owner of a real ubuntu system always have write access to its home-dir
[08:27] <Abhijit> Marty1, cpio?
[08:27] <svrnmnd> iceroot: I have write access, no problem creating new docs or saving things. I just think its a small discrep. could you give me a terminal command to make my home folder RW?
[08:27] <Abhijit> maybe
[08:28] <iceroot> svrnmnd: sudo chmod -R o+w ~
[08:28] <Zizzu> is there a way to check the integrity of bios? like how could i check if i have a virus in the bios??
[08:28] <svrnmnd> iceroot: thanks
[08:28] <iceroot> Zizzu: you can not have a virus in the bios
[08:28] <dr_willis> havent seen a bios virus rumor in ages
[08:28] <theadmin> Zizzu: That makes no sense you know, bios is not something that can be infected by malware
[08:29] <Marty1> (Looking it up right now. cp should work, but doesn't for non-empty files.)
[08:29] <dusf> last time i was offered to upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10 i selected 'ask me later' - how do i force the upgrade now? when i go into update manager and check and upgrade packages i am not offered a system upgrade
[08:29] <Zizzu> i have something like a virus in my hardware, dont know what it is...
[08:29] <theadmin> dusf: sudo do-release-upgrade
[08:29] <dusf> Zizzu: no viruses on linux
[08:29] <dusf> theadmin: thanks
[08:29] <iceroot> Zizzu: ##hardware
[08:29] <apt-getter> Google bios virus.  Try this: sudo mount -v /dev/sdc1 /mnt/tempmnt # Would help you identify the problem at least
[08:33] <iceroot> svrnmnd: everything good and please use the channel of your distro
[08:34] <apt-getter> I have accelerometre data where I want to create 3 files, one for x, one for y, one for z, and this is what my code is: http://pastebin.com/yqt33Pvx  Basically it reads all the data the accelerometre reads using cat, and appends a new value every 0.5 os a second.

[08:34] <iceroot> apt-getter: no
[08:34] <theadmin> borillion__: Did you see what I wrote above? Try with -v
[08:34] <iceroot> apt-getter: can you give me a link how to infect the system, common bios viruses, how they work and so on?
[08:34] <apt-getter> OK. Wait...

[08:35] <iceroot> apt-getter: and also how to bypass the checksum function from the bios
[08:35] <dr_willis> and how to infect others...
[08:35] <iceroot> apt-getter: imo all bios-updates are signed today
[08:35] <opalepatrick> does it make sense to leave a new external hard drive with fat32 for backing up non-system files? (all my personal created files)

[08:36] <theadmin> borillion__: Bah... This error makes no sense... :(

[08:36] <theadmin> borillion__: I assume you *are* running this as root (with sudo)
[08:36] <iceroot> apt-getter: useless discussion
[08:36] <borillion__> yea
[08:36] <dr_willis> opalepatrick:  depends on the file sizes. i use ntfs

[08:36] <apt-getter> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS#Virus_attacks
[08:36] <apt-getter> They DO exist...
[08:37] <theadmin> apt-getter: Still got *nothing* to do with Ubuntu
[08:37] <iceroot> apt-getter: that a infected firmware exists, no doubt, i am asking how to get them on the system
[08:37] <iceroot> apt-getter: like "how to bypass the signed chekc" how to bypass the checksum
[08:37] <opalepatrick> dr_willis, I can access ntfs from most operating systems - makes sense
[08:38] <K-Rich> I LOVE REBECCA JO SUTTON!  I AM A FLIRT. DEAL WITH IT.... THE QUESTION IS BECKY, CAN YOU?
[08:39] <iceroot> K-Rich: stop it please
[08:39] <brightspark> apt-getter, the virus stuff is off-topic.  as per your accelerometer data, does your existing code successfully assemble the data into one file?
[08:39] <apt-getter> Yes, it does assemble it successfully.
[08:40] <apt-getter> Shall I post the output?
[08:40] <brightspark> apt-getter, so then instead of outputting it straight to a file, run it through some pipes to awk like I mentioned before.
[08:41] <brightspark> apt-getter, it's not critical that you do, but go ahead
[08:41] <apt-getter> yes, I tried it. but it didn't work. I can post the awk'd version of the code.
[08:41] <borillion__> theadmin, mount -vvv shows /dev/md1 on /mnt/soho_storage type ext3 (rw,noatime,data=ordered) so its odd I cant mount an external ext3 lol
[08:41] <K-Rich> K-Rich, sorrt, i though that only went to Dal.net... xchat and /amsg are weird... my bad
[08:41] <iceroot> borillion__: md1?
[08:41] <iceroot> borillion__: you dont mount /dev/mdX
[08:42] <iceroot> borillion__: you mount /dev/mapper/foobar
[08:42] <iceroot> borillion__: md = raid
[08:42] <borillion__> iceroot yes its a NAS its doing it automatically
[08:42] <apt-getter> http://www.pastebin.com/P44dV4WD
[08:42] <apt-getter> The awk'd version.
[08:43] <borillion__> iceroot: mounting /dev/sdc1 on /mnt/tempmnt fails /dev/sdc1 is an ext3 formatted usb drive connected to NAS
[08:43] <brightspark> apt-getter, that's not going to work for columns 2 and 3.  if you ditch everything from the first "&&" onwards, do you get the first file correctly?

[08:45] <apt-getter> it gives me "(-9,222,31)" amd I want to have the three numbers separated.
[08:46] <smegzor> hmm.. on both PC's only 1 driver can be used.  There are no alternatives unless I was to switch from NVidia to ATi.

[09:11] <crackerjackz> theadmin: it returns no output... what does that mean?
[09:11] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Means you don't have it enabled
[09:11] <crackerjackz> theadmin: does it need to be enabled for me to install pastebinit?
[09:11] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Yeah, or else... Well, let's figure out a way without pbi because it's annoying to handle repos via cli if you don't know how to lol
[09:12] <crackerjackz> theadmin: well if i can direct the output to a text file then i could scp it to my webserver or something

[09:20] <playit> ill look into what you mentioned as well
[09:20] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Weird...
[09:20] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Ah, actually, NOT weird
[09:21] <crackerjackz> theadmin: btw i tried the wget paste thing and it complained about the -0 (it didn
[09:21] <crackerjackz> work
[09:21] <theadmin> crackerjackz: sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/nixold 2>&1 | tee file
[09:21] <shadowh511> playit: kay, glad to help ^_^ Mindmapping might be better anyway. Have you looked into UML? it's for code, but it could be fedangled to make the diagrams you want
[09:21] <playit> no I haven't I'll check into it
[09:22] <playit> vym seemed kind of clunky to me
[09:22] <playit> the HTML output wasn't what I was expecting .. Not sure how they got standard widths and it was hard to layout as well
[09:23] <crackerjackz> theadmin: okay that time it worked but it only directed the output of the last line it didn't show the whole error message
[09:23] <barnex> Hello. I can't kill process on 11.10 and consider reporting a bug. Can someone tell me what should I include in this report to make it useful?
[09:23] <shadowh511> playit: yeah, some of the fringe cases in FOSS don't get worked out the cleanest, it's a know issue
[09:23] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Huh.  It seems to be the kernel problem.
[09:24] <playit> thanks for the uml selection.. I would of never knew how to google for that
[09:24] <crackerjackz> theadmin: basically it says can't find ext2 file system on sda3 can't find ext4 file system on sda3.. bogus number or reserved sectors. you must specify the file system type
[09:24] <playit> thats precisely the kind of solutions im looking for
[09:24] <barnex> Top says that compiz is in 'R' state
[09:24] <barnex> and it just ignores kill -9
[09:24] <crackerjackz> (when ever i try to mount it that is)
[09:24] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Try doing that.
[09:24] <theadmin> crackerjackz: What FS is on it?
[09:25] <crackerjackz> theadmin: i'm not sure it was so long ago... i installed linux using wubi though
[09:25] <playit> do you or anyone else know of any other solutions? Im going to further research UML I just want to make sure theres not an easier direction to take
[09:25] <playit> UML looks promising for what I want to do
[09:25] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Oh, but uh, then it'd be on your Windows partition in some file
[09:25] <bc81> barnex: you might try switching window managers (metacity --replace, compiz --replace)  just a suggestion
[09:26] <prashant_123456> ssh client says access denied dont know why ?
[09:27] <crackerjackz> theadmin: there is a seperate partition called linux with some wubi stuff in it.. but i don't see my files
[09:27] <theadmin> crackerjackz: You need to mount the actual wubi drive, it's in a file called "root.disk"
[09:28] <anonymousinuk> hiya, can anyone help me with changing the default channel on my wlan0/ mon0  antenna?
[09:28] <crackerjackz> theadmin: how do i search all mounted partitions for the file root.disk
[09:28] <theadmin> crackerjackz: sudo find -type f -iname 'root.disk'
[09:29] <crackerjackz> theadmin: it returned no output
[09:29] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Well, then the partition isn't mounted
[09:30] <crackerjackz> theadmin: i think it might work this time... i was in the home directory when i ran that command
[09:30] <crackerjackz> i cd'd to / and now its taking longer for the command to return something so im guessing its searching
[09:30] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Oh, pardon me: sudo find / -type f -iname 'root.disk'
[09:30] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Or yeah, cd to /
[09:31] <barnex> bc81: Hmm, that might work, but i have no idea how to do it - I currently have 2 guest sessions running compiz at 100%, and I'm not logged in neither of them.
[09:32] <crackerjackz> theadmin: okay i found it.. it says /.media/Linux/ubuntu/disks/root.disk
[09:32] <barnex> I can su to those guest, but then when I try metacity --replace I get Window manager error: Unable to open X display :0
[09:32] <OerHeks> anonymousinuk, change the default channel, in your Wifirouter.
[09:32] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Great, that's the one. Now: sudo mount -o loop /media/Linux/ubuntu/disks/root.disk /mnt/nixold
[09:32] <bc81> barnex: how are you trying to kill compiz?
[09:33] <barnex> sudo kill -9 15384
[09:33] <barnex> where 15384 is the pid
[09:33] <anonymousinuk> thnks, Oheks
[09:33] <bc81> barnex: ok, how about killall compiz?
[09:33] <theadmin> barnex: But compiz may have multiple processes... "sudo pkill compiz" will work better
[09:34] <anonymousinuk> i just assumed it was the program controlling the channel !
[09:34] <barnex> well, even if it does have multiple processes, shouldn
[09:34] <barnex> well, even if it does have multiple processes, shouldn't the 15384 be killed anyways?
[09:34] <crackerjackz> theadmin: my files!!!! i love j00!!!
[09:34] <theadmin> crackerjackz: lol, uh, thanks I guess :D
[09:34] <crackerjackz> theadmin: thank you so much
[09:35] <barnex> pkill and killall haven't worked
[09:35] <theadmin> crackerjackz: np, if you said you're using wubi in the first place you'd have saved me a lot of time :D
[09:35] <meganerd> barnex: have you tried restarting X?
[09:36] <barnex> I did sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm restart
[09:36] <barnex> I believe it restarts X server as well?
[09:36] <theadmin> barnex: Yeah it should
[09:37] <crackerjackz> theadmin: actually i did mention wubi in the very first sentence i posted here
[09:37] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Ah guess I skipped it, sorry
[09:38] <crackerjackz> theadmin: its all good you helped me plus even though we went through some crap tryin to figure it out you taught me a couple of things i didn't know so not only did you help me get my files but you taught me a couple of things that i didn't know
[09:38] <bc81> barnex: or what about killall -9 compiz
[09:38] <theadmin> crackerjackz: It's no problem
[09:39] <biggi_mat> You should charge him.
[09:39] <barnex> bc81: doesn't work.
[09:39] <crackerjackz> ^ actually i think some of you guys should make money answering peoples questions
[09:39] <crackerjackz> your knowledge is worth a lot
[09:39] <barnex> Well, It seems like the program isn't the problem - all of them return 0, so kernel seems to accept the signal
[09:40] <barnex> and something is wrong on the kernel part?
[09:41] <bc81> barnex: the answer here says you can't kill compiz when the Launcher or Unity is running, maybe that's the problem? http://askubuntu.com/questions/47022/how-to-kill-unity-panel-unity-launcher
[09:42] <mint> ciao
[09:43] <MonkeyDust> list
[09:43] <barnex> bc81: hmm, I'm not sure what are the process names of Unity and Launcher, but "ps ax | grep -i unity" lists no processes
[09:44] <meganerd> barnex: assuming that you are using the default, have you tried shutting down X?  /etc/init.d/lightdm stop
[09:45] <barnex> I don't really understand how ubuntu manages multiple users
[09:45] <barnex> meganerd: yes
[09:45] <barnex> it seems to do some deep magic, pausing all users program when I switch users?
[09:45] <hydrox24> barnex: not sure about that, although I never use the switch user funstion.
[09:46] <barnex> I noticed that when I switch users while playing music, the music stops
[09:46] <theadmin> barnex: pulseaudio runs in a user-based manner, it won't play anything while you're not in the right user session
[09:47] <Ghrim> I have a usb microphone, how do I set it up?
[09:48] <tomodo> hi
[09:48] <hydrox24> barnex: that wouldnt be pausing processes, just pulseaudio doing some muting.
[09:48] <tomodo> how do I turn off compiz?
[09:49] <warfaren> Ghrim: should be pretty straightforward. plugin it in and select it in the sound properties
[09:49] <warfaren> tomodo: at the login screen i think you can select gnome instead from a drop down menu
[09:49] <tomodo> oh, thank yo9u
[09:50] <warfaren> i dunno if they still have it in the latest release though
[09:50] <tomodo> the menu bar in a program (racket) is not showing up.. looks like this http://i.imgur.com/0ApdG.png
[09:50] <tomodo> any ideas how to fix it?
[09:50] <warfaren> oh wait, my mistake. you said compiz not unity tomodo
[09:51] <theadmin> tomodo: It's Unity's fault, trying to use globalmenu with your app and failing :/
[09:51] <tomodo> I was able to turn off unity
[09:51] <warfaren> sorry im confused. that would be desktop effects i think
[09:51] <theadmin> tomodo: Remove "appmenu-gtk" and "appmenu-qt" if you have those
[09:51] <tomodo> how do I turn off globalmenu?
[09:51] <crackerjackz> theadmin: i know this is a little off topic for this channel but by chance would you happen to know where mysql databases get saved by default (like say you run one of those .php install scripts and it sets up the tables and all of that for you) im looking for the db for vxguestbook not sure where its at though
[09:51] <theadmin> crackerjackz: Nope no idea
[09:52] <tomodo> I am removing them with synaptic
[09:52] <tomodo> that didn't solve the problem
[09:53] <tomodo> maybe I need to log out and back in
[09:53] <tomodo> thanks for your help, I'll go see what happens
[09:54] <jaci> Jaci Poli
[09:56] <krish> guys, on oneiric, I dont get unity menus on vnc.. I get some file, edit menu on the top.. any solutions?
[09:59] <tomodo> thanks for the suggeswtion but when I removed the menubar programs it still has the same bug
[09:59] <sysco> Bonjour
[09:59] <sysco> est ce qu'une personne pourrais m'aider ?
[09:59] <tomodo> any other ideas I could try?
[10:00] <Spyros> sysco, in what?
[10:00] <floridsdorf> hi
[10:00] <sysco> je suis novice sur linux , je l'ai installer hier , etj'ai voulut voir les différents graphiques de bureau
[10:01] <sysco> la je suis bloquer sur le xfce , pas moyen de fermé ma session
[10:01] <Zizzu> is it possible that i am so unlucky that i found the only hacker in the world able to do a hardware virus and also he want to destroy me while i am noone??
[10:02] <Spyros> sysco, Ctrl+Alt+Delete
[10:02] <theadmin> Zizzu: What are the symptoms anyway? What makes you think you're infected?
[10:02] <Spyros> sysco, do you have a panel?
[10:02] <sysco> Spyros  non il ne veux pas
[10:03] <Zizzu> couse he have funny with me, ddos my adsl, crash my network card, change my ubuntu password
[10:03] <Zizzu> and all this after i format and flash bios
[10:03] <Spyros> sysco, tu n'ai pas le panel;
[10:04] <sysco> j'ai juste des icones sur le bureau c'est tous
[10:04] <theadmin> !fr | sysco, Spyros
[10:04] <Zizzu> and i am the only 1 which use this computer i am at home he root my computer no stupid friends or someone using my lan, he do this remotely
[10:05] <Spyros> sysco, Alt+F2 :: xfce4-panel
[10:05] <sysco> uboottu , désiole si il est pas noté au novice qui debute comment faire pour joindre un fr  !
[10:05] <sysco> merci de ton implication  ;)
[10:05] <Zizzu> wtf i have inside computer?
[10:05] <mufflon> hello all
[10:06] <meganerd> crackerjackz: mysql tables et al live in /var/lib/mysql
[10:06] <Myrtti> Zizzu: have you ran rkhunter or similar?
[10:06] <Myrtti> Zizzu: also, mind your language :-)
[10:07] <Zizzu> i zero format the computer with dd, flash bios and he enter my computer again
[10:07] <Zizzu> i have something in the hardware
[10:07] <Ben64> Zizzu: you're not getting hacked
[10:07] <Zizzu> i am
[10:07] <Zizzu> a lot
[10:08] <Ben64> what evidence do you have to support that theory
[10:08] <Zizzu> the best evidence is he changed my admin password and modified grub, i cant login
[10:09] <Zizzu> then a 24h on 24 ddos on the adsl
[10:09] <Ben64> ubuntu doesn't have a root password by default
[10:10] <zmp> whois zmp
[10:10] <Zizzu> what that mean, he just change the password, every time im on linux this guy enter it and block the system so i cant use it
[10:10] <Ben64> check the logs then, it'd show if someone was accessing you
[10:11] <OerHeks> Zizzu, hard to believe, look in your room for camera's
[10:11] <tomodo> which logs?
[10:11] <ubuntu> theadmin: the live cd crashed on me.. can you paste to me that mount command again for my wubi disk
[10:11] <ubuntu> theadmin: its crackerjackz
[10:11] <Zizzu> yeah it could be my daddy... no this is a hacker group which have fun with me
[10:11] <theadmin> ubuntu: sudo mount -o /path/to/root.disk /path/to/mountpoint # Basically.
[10:11] <Ben64> its not a hacker
[10:11] <ubuntu> theadmin: ty
[10:12] <hydrox24> Zizzu: I doubt it... I would also suggest that you try limiting physical access (for others) to your machine accept for the network connection to try and root out the issue
[10:12] <Zizzu> i am the only one which use the computer it is my computer in my room in my home
[10:13] <Zizzu> i have something in the hardware which work like a signal
[10:13] <Zizzu> :(
[10:13] <OerHeks> Zizzu stop using wireless keyboard .
[10:13] <hydrox24> Zizzu: and what, every time you use ubuntu the password get's changed?
[10:13] <Zizzu> happened 2 times
[10:13] <hydrox24> Zizzu: Yes, are you using a BT keyboard?
[10:13] <Zizzu> no
[10:14] <Zizzu> usb
[10:14] <hydrox24> Zizzu: and is you password long and secure?
[10:14] <sysco> merci spyro , j'ai reboot la machine car rien ne fonctionnais
[10:14] <hydrox24> Zizzu: also, do you know if you have ssh installed and/or the openssh server running?
[10:14] <barnex> Zizzu: maybe it's something drive related? I imagine it's possible that every new ubuntu installation with the same partition table uses the same place on the hdd to store the password data
[10:14] <barnex> now if there's some problem with reliably accessing this sector
[10:15] <barnex> it may appear like your password changes?
[10:15] <barnex> longshot
[10:15] <barnex> but hardware virus isn't more probable :P
[10:15] <Zizzu> its not about the password only its about a group of hackers showing they can find me everywhere i connect and root my computer when they want
[10:15] <Ben64> there are no hackers
[10:15] <Myrtti> Zizzu: it could be your keyboard that's broken.
[10:15] <OerHeks> Zizzu is it raining outside ? nice day to troll a channel.
[10:16] <Zizzu> there are, after the password changed i format again and put windows 7, i connect to a game a guy called me and say: NOW U PLAY HE GOOD
[10:16] <Zizzu> no troll here
[10:16] <Ben64> sounds like troll, because what you are saying is impossible
[10:17] <Zizzu> i know
[10:17] <barnex> yes it really does sound like a troll
[10:17] <Zizzu> but I HAVE
[10:17] <Spyros> sysco, you can always hit :"Ctrl+Alt+F1", then login as sysco, then :"sudo -i"
[10:17] <MonkeyDust> Spyros  that suggesting that command is a no-no here
[10:18] <Ben64> Zizzu: pastebin /var/log/auth.log
[10:18] <Zizzu> i think it is something in the firmware or bios or all 2
[10:18] <ubuntu> theadmin: ty
[10:18] <Spyros> what do you mean
[10:18] <Zizzu> im on windows 7 now cant use linux
[10:18] <barnex> Zizzu: well, don't take this as a personal attack, but if you really aren't trolling and you agree that it's probably impossible...
[10:18] <zamba> how can i check if my system is running on s-ata or ide?
[10:18] <orated> Is nomodeset option default in grub?
[10:18] <Ben64> Zizzu: this is ubuntu support, not paranoid windows 7 support
[10:18] <theadmin> orated: Nope, why would it be?
[10:18] <barnex> Maybe it's not computer issue, but mental health one?
[10:18] <hydrox24> Zizzu: I would suggest that you look into encrypting your HDD and/or look for suspicious vans hanging around outside your house if you are concerned about security
[10:19] <Spyros> MonkeyDust, what do you mean?
[10:19] <Ben64> Spyros: sudo -i isn't recommended
[10:19] <Spyros> srry
[10:19] <theadmin> Ben64: How come? That's the recommended way to get the root shell
[10:19] <Ben64> it can be dangerous if the user doesn't realize what it does
[10:20] <theadmin> Ben64: Well, if the user runs commands without realizing what they do...
[10:20] <Spyros> heh
[10:20] <Ben64> most people don't know
[10:20] <barnex> the whole login/profile issue isn't really that obvious
[10:21] <barnex> I just recently learned it because i had to for ruby version manager
[10:23] <Zizzu> anyone know if the bios hash should be the same of the rom filw which i used to flash it after i restart the computer, or is it normal that it is different
[10:24] <hydrox24> goobye all, have a good night (in Aus atleast)
[10:24] <ikonia> Zizzu: hi, this channel is for ubuntu support only, can you please keep to that topic
[10:25] <Bubo> Can anyone help me install gimp 2.7.4? compile and install? I asked on #gimp but nobody seems to be able to help me
[10:25] <ikonia> Bubo: why can you not use the version that is in the repo
[10:25] <Zizzu> i know this channel is about ubuntu but this virus is the best virus ever and ubuntu is not immune to this kind of virus u know
[10:25] <Bubo> Because of unmet dependencies.. people have been trying to help me (here in this channel) many times and nobody seems to be able to fix it
[10:25] <ikonia> Zizzu: unless your question is an ubuntu support question, please keep it out of this channel
[10:25] <barnex> Bubo: why compile? There seems to be ppa for it?
[10:25] <Bubo> the repo gives me 2.7.5
[10:25] <iceroot> Zizzu: please stop it now, i told you an hour ago that it is offtopic
[10:26] <cloudgeek> ikonia: how find any thing using and then grep using anything from all search like i try this find / -name  python | grep python
[10:26] <Bubo> i need 2.7.4 which is working
[10:26] <barnex> oh
[10:26] <Bubo> 2.7.5 still isnt wokring in ubuntu 11.10
[10:26] <iceroot> Zizzu: go to ##hardware or something like that
[10:26] <iceroot> !work | Bubo
[10:26] <Myrtti> Bubo: and why do you need it?
[10:26] <ikonia> Bubo: unless you are using external repos / PPA's the version in the ubuntu repo will not complain of failed dependencies
[10:26] <Bubo> I said i have asked here for help many times, and few people tried to help me but i end up formatting
[10:27] <ikonia> Bubo: what version of ubuntu are you using
[10:27] <Bubo> ikonia 11.10
[10:27] <Bubo> and yes it complains of failed dependencies
[10:27] <Bubo> a few dozen of them
[10:27] <ikonia> Bubo: do you have any 3rd party repos or PPA's ?
[10:27] <Bubo> its a new version of gimp, it came out few days/weeks ago
[10:27] <ikonia> Bubo: do you have any 3rd party repos or PPA's ?
[10:27] <Bubo> Yes
[10:27] <ikonia> Bubo: that will most likley be the cause of your problems
[10:27] <MonkeyDust> PPA's :(
[10:27] <barnex> http://alcides-mp.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/gimp-2.7.4-linux-amd64.7z - there seems to be binary for x64 versions, but installing binaries from untrusted sources isn't recommended
[10:27] <Bubo> when it was 2.7.4 in the repo, it installed fine (with the same PPA's)
[10:28] <ikonia> Bubo: they will be creating (most likley) the cause of your conflicts
[10:28] <ikonia> !info gimp
[10:28] <Bubo> now i have those same PPA's and gmip 2.7.5 isnt installing
[10:28] <ikonia> Bubo: gimp 2.6 is the 11.10 version
[10:28] <Bubo> I searched on google, and some other people have been having the same problem with 2.7.5
[10:28] <MonkeyDust> Bubo  what is being said is: remove the PPA's to solve the problem(s)
[10:28] <ikonia> Bubo: please focus on what I'm saying
[10:29] <ikonia> MonkeyDust: that is not what is being said
[10:29] <ikonia> MonkeyDust: removing a PPA at this time will do nothing
[10:29] <cloudgeek> how we can use the find and grep command together
[10:29] <shadowh511> ppa-purge?
[10:29] <ikonia> shadowh511: no
[10:29] <ikonia> Bubo: the version of gimp in ubuntu 11.10 is 2.6 - where are you getting 2.7 from ?
[10:29] <shadowh511> ppa-purge should remove the broken dep'd gimp
[10:29] <orated> theadmin: Afaik setting "nomodeset" disables KMS which would end up giving VT's native resolution? I only wanted to confirm as I forgot the what original grub option was after recent changes. Could you link me to any article describing all the grub options?
[10:29] <ikonia> shadowh511: no, it won't
[10:29] <alkisg> Hi, could someone propose to me a light window manager with regular minimize, maximize and close buttons, that is NOT preinstalled in one of the [k|x|l|ed]ubuntu variants?
[10:30] <shadowh511> ikonia: it does for me :P
[10:30] <MonkeyDust> alkisg  jwm is very light
[10:30] <alkisg> Thank you MonkeyDust
[10:30] <theadmin> orated: Sorry, nope, and all I know is that nomodeset helps if your X is acting up xD Not sure what it really does, sorry
[10:30] <Bubo> ikonia 2.7.x is an unstable version (but 2.7.4 works on ubuntu 11.10 and supports single-window mode which 2.6.x dosent)
[10:30] <theadmin> alkisg: openbox ftw?
[10:30] <meganerd> orated: why not check the grub site?
[10:30] <ikonia> Bubo: please stop answering questions I'm not asking
[10:30] <shadowh511> alkisg: also look up awesome
[10:30] <Bubo> I cant use 2.6 because it doesnt allow me to open 2.7.x
[10:30] <ikonia> Bubo: please answer the questions I am asking
[10:30] <ikonia> Bubo: where did you get gimp 2.7
[10:30] <Bubo> From gimp.org
[10:30] <alkisg> theadmin: I'd agree, but I want to run it inside Xephyr inside the same user session, so if the user runs lubuntu, I'm worrying about conflicts...
[10:31] <ikonia> Bubo: how did you install it ? from a deb package or by compiling it ?
[10:31] <Bubo> You add a repository
[10:31] <rcsheets> What's the correct way to change the PATH system-wide? Looks like /etc/login.defs but when I make changes there, I'm not seeing them reflected in new logins.
[10:31] <Bubo> and it gives you the latest unstable which is now 2.7.5 (doesnt work)
[10:31] <alkisg> Thank you shadowh511, I'll check that too
[10:31] <ikonia> Bubo: ok - to that repository will be downloading dependencies that are causing the conflict
[10:31] <Bubo> 2.7.4 worked and installed easily
[10:31] <shadowh511> alkisg: no problem
[10:31] <theadmin> alkisg: I... kind of understand what you're talking about. Hm, okay then, fluxbox?
[10:31] <barnex> alkisg: what do you consider regular minimize/maximize and close? is this ok: http://bluetile.org/images/bluetile_screenshot2.png ?
[10:31] <meganerd> Bubo: well unstable is exactly that
[10:32] <Bubo> Yes but 2.7.4 didnt had any problems, but 2.7.5 does
[10:32] <ikonia> Bubo: if the package is causing conflicts you need to either a.) stop using the external repos b.) conact the owner of those repos and ask them to resolve them for you
[10:32] <alkisg> barnex: ...it's not very pretty but it does the work :)
[10:32] <Bubo> and they changed to 2.7.5 in the repository 2 weeks ago i think
[10:32] <meganerd> Bubo: yes, and the gimp PPA broke something
[10:32] <shadowh511> Bubo: you installed unstable software, it eats children from time to time
[10:32] <ikonia> Bubo: we cannot fix external packages - contact the package maintainers
[10:32] <Bubo> ikonia
[10:32] <barnex> alkisg: well, that's bluetile - basically xmonad preconfigured to play nicely with gnome
[10:32] <Bubo> I downloaded 2.7.4 version and i asked if someone can help me compile it
[10:32] <meganerd> Bubo: that is the very nature of unstable, updates break things
[10:32] <Bubo> that version is working on ubuntu 11.10 without any problems
[10:33] <ikonia> Bubo: that is a terrible idea
[10:33] <barnex> I used it for a while and then moved to xmonad with my own config, it's really awesome.
[10:33] <meganerd> Bubo: not really on topic, and probably more effort than it is worth.
[10:33] <theadmin> Hm... I really should try xmonad too
[10:33] <ikonia> Bubo: I strongly advise you to talk to the gimp package maintainers and ask them for assitance, you will probably get reasonable help
[10:34] <orated> theadmin meganerd: I said it wrong.. those are linux options. Grub only helps them to pass
[10:34] <barnex> theadmin: yes you should :-). Editing haskell configs when you don't know first thing about haskell is painful though
[10:34] <theadmin> barnex: Ah... hm, then I'd rather stick to i3 where configs are a pretty obvious language :D
[10:34] <Bubo> Ok thank you
[10:35] <meganerd> orated: then the kernel source is probably  where you want to look.  There are a lot of options
[10:35] <orated> meganerd: Yes, searching. Thanks
[10:35] <barnex> theadmin: what language is that?
[10:36] <theadmin> barnex: Not sure really, but it's just understandable just from looking at the default config
[10:36] <barnex> oh ok, so it's more like a proper config, not a program?
[10:36] <barnex> I really like the idea of programming my config
[10:36] <barnex> so I can change the bindings depending on layout for instance
[10:37] <theadmin> barnex: Ah... Hm, say, do you know any wms which would use Perl and/or Ruby for configs?
[10:37] <barnex> or the desktop or the running apps
[10:37] <shadowh511> awesome would be better then
[10:37] <shadowh511> it uses a lua config file
[10:37] <meganerd> orated: there is a Documentation folder in the kernel source
[10:37] <barnex> theadmin: I used wmii few years ago, don't know if it's still maintained
[10:37] <theadmin> barnex: Think it is
[10:37] <barnex> it used ruby afair
[10:37] <theadmin> barnex: Not so sure though
[10:37] <cloudgeek>  find . -name "pinax" -exec grep "pinax" {} \\ ; -print
[10:37] <cloudgeek> i have error on bash with exec and print
[10:38] <meganerd> cloudgeek: find . -iname "pinax" -exec grep \{\} \;
[10:38] <theadmin> meganerd: ew at this \{\}... Just use '{}', seriously :D
[10:38] <barnex> I don't really love xmonad and haskell is painful, but it lets me use the gnome 3 panels and indicators.
[10:38] <barnex> And i really like those.
[10:38] <cloudgeek> meganerd: working :) , what is error in that
[10:38] <rcsheets> oh, it's /etc/environment
[10:39] <meganerd> theadmin: :)
[10:39] <theadmin> cloudgeek: { and } are special characters in bash, gotta escape them
[10:39] <Pepp-elito> Hi, I'm running x-swat nvidia drivers on ubuntu 10.10 and i experience freezes while playing some youtube movies. Does anyone know why this happens, seems to be related to hardware acceleration. Anyone that has experienced this and solved it?
[10:39] <cloudgeek> theadmin: okay , it help undersatnd better unix
[10:39] <ikonia> Pepp-elito: your best bet is to contact the x-swat repos maintainers, log a bug and work with them to resolve it
[10:40] <Ben64> Pepp-elito: what version ubuntu? 32 or 64 bit? what browser?
[10:40] <Pepp-elito> Ben64, I'm runnig 32-bit ubuntu 10.10
[10:41] <Ben64> Pepp-elito: hm, i have no problems on 64 bit 10.04 with that driver
[10:41] <ikonia> Ben64: you must realise what little value that offers, different hardware,
[10:41] <Ben64> yeah well, its close
[10:41] <Ben64> nvidia drivers are binaries, they don't really vary
[10:42] <ikonia> Ben64: but hardware and compatability does
[10:42] <Name141> What's more up to date, as in wont require more updates when it's installed, the LTS.something or the 11.10 ?
[10:42] <Pepp-elito> Ben64, I think it might be related to my hardware setup. I'm running a zotac nd-22, which has nvidia ION. I think this is both an nvida chip and an intel chip, but i'm not sure..
[10:42] <Ben64> seems more likely that its a flash issue
[10:42] <theadmin> Name141: The latest (Oneiric, 11.10)
[10:42] <Ben64> Pepp-elito: have you tried turning hardware acceleration off from flash?
[10:42] <theadmin> Name141: Well, you'll still need to update, but it's more up-to-date anyway
[10:43] <Name141> theadmin: OK.  My unlimited hours are about up is why (stupid ISP caps)
[10:43] <theadmin> Name141: Try the minimal CD
[10:43] <theadmin> Name141: That way you can install only what you really need/want
[10:44] <Name141> theadmin: I'm going to use wubi.
[10:44] <theadmin> Name141: ew, why?
[10:44] <MonkeyDust> wubi :(
[10:44] <yakc> How can I get indicator for banshee in gnome 3.2 shell?

[10:57] <cloudgeek> and any irc for web-design for
[10:57] <cloudgeek> linux or ubuntu guys

[10:59] <totesmuhgoats> hi guys
[10:59] <totesmuhgoats> I have made changes to my /etc/default/grub and wish to delete it and get back the default configuration. How can I get back the default configuration?
[11:00] <jack-> help
 Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
[11:00] <jack-> [11:17]  <jack-> how do i make x11 allow all users?
[11:00] <meganerd> Ben64: IIRC it gets its own stanza in there: iface <iface> inet6 static
[11:01] <Ben64> meganerd: cool
[11:01] <Ben64> i guess i'll find out if it works next time i reboot
[11:01] <RangerBob> xhost +
[11:01] <guest1> totesmuhgoats: dpkg-reconfigure grub ?
[11:01] <jack-> oh, yeah
[11:01] <jack-> thx!
[11:01] <totesmuhgoats> guest1: thanks i shall try it out
[11:02] <RangerBob> np :)
[11:02] <RangerBob> also xhost + localhost, etc
[11:02] <totesmuhgoats> guest1: there is no package called grub installed
[11:02] <guest1> totesmuhgoats: or probably copy example config from /usr/share/****grub*** to /boot/*** and make 'update-grub' or smth
[11:02] <Supreme> Hey
[11:03] <totesmuhgoats> guest1: thanks, ill try it out
[11:03] <guest1> totesmuhgoats: dpkg -l | grep grub
[11:03] <Ben64> totesmuhgoats: grub-pc most likely
[11:05] <guest1> totesmuhgoats: Sometimes i look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2
[11:05] <totesmuhgoats> guest1: Ben64 thanks, that did it
[11:05] <Supreme> How long does it take to download ubuntu 11.10?
[11:05] <totesmuhgoats> there were copies of the files located in /usr/share
[11:05] <totesmuhgoats> and also the package was grub-pc
[11:05] <meganerd> Supreme: depends on your connection
[11:05] <totesmuhgoats> so dpkg-reconfigure works now
[11:06] <guest1> good
[11:06] <hcuongvn> I need your help. I've been lost my ".bashrc" file. How can i restore that file?
[11:06] <habermann24> i want to use upstarts' user jobs and i have one setup in ~/.init/ … but "start my_job" won't find it…any ideas?? (ubuntu 11.10)
[11:06] <Supreme> Its normal not slow not fast. . .
[11:06] <totesmuhgoats> i will be back in a bit, moment of truth. gonna reboot and hopefully all will be well
[11:06] <guest1> hcuongvn: copy it from /etc/skel*
[11:06] <meganerd> hcuongvn: there is a default one in etc you can copy back
[11:06] <aleale97> Nessun italiano?
[11:06] <hcuongvn> ok! Thank guys!

[11:07] <aleale97> Thanks!
[11:07] <GriGi> Hi, I want to get rid of "Enter password to unlock your login keyring" window. (I was loginng without password, but now Im logging with password). I find command: "sudo rm ~/.gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring" Is it safe to remove that file?
[11:07] <Supreme> Approximately how long does it take to download 11.10?
[11:08] <oCean> Supreme: depends on your connection
[11:08] <meganerd> Supreme: how fast is your internet connection?
[11:08] <meisth0th> hello
[11:08] <Supreme> It normal. Not very fast.
[11:09] <oCean> Supreme: I do it in little over 3 minutes
[11:09] <meganerd> Supreme: I have no idea what normal is
[11:09] <bc81> GriGi: not sure, but if you experiment, you can just rename that file to login.keyring.old (or something)
[11:09] <guest1> hcuongvn: there is mine backup .bashrc but from debian http://pastie.org/3407252
[11:09] <GriGi> bc81: Thanks, that's good idea :).
[11:09] <Supreme> 15 mbps
[11:09] <oCean> Supreme: it depends on the mirror you are using, but mostly on your connection, so there is no way to tell
[11:10] <meganerd> Supreme: also the torrents can sometimes be faster
[11:10] <hcuongvn> guest1: I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
[11:10] <Supreme> Do you know the fastest mirror i can download it from?
[11:10] <guest1> oCean: about 30 min to 1 hour maybe faster -- 8mb speed of internet -- anyway about 30 min with cable internet
[11:11] <meganerd> Supreme: probably a torrent
[11:11] <guest1> hcuongvn: ok it's good i used it
[11:11] <Supreme> Give me a website?
[11:11] <bc81> Supreme: the closest mirror to your location will *usually* be fastest (not always the case)..i have found torrents to be the fastest though
[11:12] <oCean> Supreme: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download#bt
[11:12] <hcuongvn> guest1: What's the name of default ".bashrc" file in /etc ? I'm not sure that i copied right file :(

[11:16] <guest1> hcuongvn: http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/i386/bash/filelist
[11:16] <shadowh511> hcuongvn: ah, I was going based on naming conventions
[11:17] <guest1> hcuongvn: aptitude source bash and unpack in archives and copy. will try myself
[11:19] <oCean> hcuongvn: it is the one in /etc/skel, since that is the one that is copied to any new user's homedirectory
[11:20] <hcuongvn> oCean: shadowh511: guest1: It's hidden in /etc/skel. I did it! Thank all guys!
[11:20] <shadowh511> hcuongvn: no prob!
[11:21] <guest1> hcuongvn: Yes! It'common case. When creating a new user this files are copied into new /home/$user/ folder. Linux is clean and simple
[11:21] <guest1> * these
[11:23] <hcuongvn> guest1: I got this. Thanks!

[11:37] <patrunjel> Hi. Do bash scripts get outputed sequentially? I have a script that compiles some code, outputs whatever, to let me know the compiling is done, so I can test the speed of whatever algorithm I'm trying, and I wanna know if the echo is outputted exactly when my compiling is done, or if it's loaded into a  buffer and outputed when my whole script finishes executing
[11:38] <_raven> MonkeyDust i need something like a graph
[11:39] <theadmin> patrunjel: The output is produced as soon as the "echo" program is called pretty much
[11:39] <patrunjel> theadmin, ok, thanks :D

[11:58] <cva> ben64: in that thread it is said that bash has a time command. and there is a real time command. I cant understand this
[11:59] <Ben64> cva: just read it, it's very clear
[12:00] <guest1> irviken in alt+f1 look at X output. Or 'sudo pkill X' and 'startx' and see the output
[12:00] <anonymousinuk> where can i get help for aircrack or help with setting wlan0/mon0 channel
[12:00] <steven__> let`s talk about something
[12:00] <oCean> steven__: this is ubuntu support channel, not social chat
[12:00] <bazhang> steven__, ubuntu support here.
[12:00] <steven__> sorry ...
[12:01] <bc81> !ot | steven__
[12:01] <tMH> ppl, once upon a time I have seen (and even installed!) slackware with enlightment version 6 or 7, the version that has some steam-punk visuals, yet it has sound scheme with nice effects like - closing window via pressing [x] button gave blast sound etc. does somebody remember this enlightment version , ever used, and know how to install it on xubuntu instead of xfce?:)
[12:01] <steven__> i got it
[12:01] <jiltdil> I have to burn video in dvd. Which is the best  s/w available for it in ubuntu?
[12:01] <oCean> steven__: you can /join #ubuntu-offtopic for chat
[12:01] <bazhang> tMH, you mean 16/17?
[12:02] <steven__> got it
[12:02] <rymate1234> lol
[12:02] <tMH> bazhang - that version was on 1999/2000 years I suppose, because I used to install slackware in mar'00
[12:02] <Dr_willis> tMH,  enlightment is in the repos. but theres been a lot of changes to it over the years.   so that old them may not work any more.
[12:02] <tMH> Dr_willis - pityful :/
[12:03] <Dr_willis> I always found enightment - overhyped..
[12:03] <tMH> but - someone have seen _that_ version?
[12:03] <tMH> with bars like on caterpillar (warning drawing, yellow/black etc)
[12:03] <tMH> yellow/black bars on top of window..
[12:03] <Dr_willis> Theres enlightment theme sites out there.
[12:03] <anonymousinuk> @oCean if general chat is in offtopic channel and there is less than 20 users in there where do ppl actually chat omn here?
[12:03] <tMH> Dr_willis - really? url?
[12:04] <anonymousinuk> on*
[12:04] <oCean> anonymousinuk: #defocus is the network's social channel
[12:04] <bazhang> anonymousinuk, try more like 200
[12:04] <anonymousinuk> im obviously looking at the wrong channel
[12:05] <anonymousinuk> soz guys got to go
[12:06] <Dr_willis> tMH,  no idea. Every time i try enlightment - it makes me want to puke and i wonder what the big deal is about.
[12:07] <Dr_willis> http://askubuntu.com/questions/tagged/enlightenment
[12:07] <tMH> Dr_willis - well, you have to understand - on '98/'99 there were no much themes and e7 (or e8) was a big blast in visual/soundFX :)
[12:07] <Dr_willis> I rember the E craze... and thought it sad back then. I perfered WindowMaker.
[12:08] <Dr_willis> that 'metisse' desktop showed more promise. but then compiz came out.
[12:08] <rymate1234> compiz <3
[12:08] <kpas> !classic
[12:08] <rymate1234> gnome <3
[12:08] <kpas> !notunity
[12:08] <rymate1234> !GNOME
[12:09] <rymate1234> !unity
[12:09] <bazhang> rymate1234, stop that
[12:09] <rymate1234> ok
[12:09] <Dr_willis> from what i hear 'compiz' may be getting less and less popular as well..
[12:09] <rymate1234> wait
[12:09] <rymate1234> "Unity is a shell for GNOME."
[12:09] <auronandace> !msgthebot | rymate1234
[12:09] <irvken> hmw, no that doesn't work
[12:09] <rymate1234> I thought it was a compiz plugin
[12:09] <Dr_willis> Unity is a shell on top of gnome-3 in Ubuntu 11.10+
[12:10] <Dr_willis> it uses compiz yes.
[12:10] <rymate1234> ah
[12:10] <Dr_willis> Unless its unity-2d :)
[12:10] <rymate1234> lol
[12:10] <rymate1234> I knew that
[12:11] <irvken> Dr_willis, I see the grub menu, boots to dual booted xp fine, I get use alt +f kets to get a terminal, and have worked through several threads on ubuntu forums before coming here
[12:11] <barnex> ??constr
[12:11] <barnex> ops, sorry, wrong channel
[12:11]  * rymate1234 will be afk
[12:11] <irvken> I've edited the grub.confg to boot in 600x400 but I still get out of range
[12:12] <Dr_willis> irvken,  if you see the grub menu.. then thats the grub configs you tweaked.. that does NOT affect the X desktop res.
[12:12] <Keule> hallo, any germany here ?
[12:12] <Dr_willis> irvken,  try the nomodeset option in grub. whats the video card anyway?
[12:12] <Dr_willis> !nomodeset | irvken
[12:12] <bazhang> Keule, in #ubuntu-de
[12:12] <Keule> ty
[12:13] <irvken> ok, cheers I'll be back later
[12:14] <alkisg> I'm writing a script which launches Xephyr, then waits half a second for it to initialize, and then runs `DISPLAY=:2 myapp` inside it. Is there any way to tell Xephyr to launch that instead, so that I don't have an arbitrary delay in my script?
[12:15] <Arizona_bay> hi
[12:15] <Arizona_bay> can people get on your computer through open ports?
[12:15] <rymate1234> it depends
[12:15] <Ben64> Arizona_bay: depends whats running on the port
[12:15] <rymate1234> what's running on that port
[12:16] <Arizona_bay> Ben64 msn
[12:16] <Ben64> msn is probably safe
[12:16] <rymate1234> ^
[12:16] <Arizona_bay> or skype
[12:16] <rymate1234> ^
[12:17] <Ben64> things you should worry about are vnc, ssh, telnet
[12:17] <bazhang> rymate1234, what are you doing?
[12:17] <Ben64> anything that gives access to the system
[12:17] <rymate1234> Arizona_bay: are you asking for his msn/skype
[12:17] <rymate1234> ?
[12:17] <MonkeyDust> i guess both skype and msn have this option to watch the other's screen
[12:18] <Arizona_bay> monkeydust what do you mean whatch the other screen"?
[12:18] <Arizona_bay> rymate1234 no im asking if those two are safe as port openers a long with chrome and mozilla
[12:18] <MonkeyDust> yes, in skype it's called "share your screen", but obviously you have to confirm
[12:18] <Princey> Surp
[12:18] <Princey> I just moved from F16 to Ubuntu 11.10
[12:18] <MonkeyDust> or is that not what you mean?
[12:18] <Princey> i feel like a traiter
[12:18] <rymate1234> ah
[12:18] <Arizona_bay> the thing is this dude also showed me his desktop through a web browser and i was able to take complete control of his desktop
[12:18] <Princey> : )
[12:18] <Arizona_bay> and then he said
[12:18] <Arizona_bay> i see your desktop as well
[12:19] <Arizona_bay> :/
[12:19] <rymate1234> Princey: welome to ubuntu!

[12:20] <rymate1234> hmmm
[12:20] <rymate1234> odd
[12:20]  * rymate1234 will brb
[12:20] <Princey> i wonder if its compiz getting in the way

[12:24] <Arizona_bay> bc81 no i didnt.  honestly he sucks in programming, he just designs website, but he is a very low person so i wouldnt be surprised.

[12:24] <Arizona_bay> rather than what is going on my laptop

[12:33] <nishttal2> hello everyone
[12:33] <nishttal2> is anyone around?

[12:33] <mikeconcepts> good morning nishttal2
[12:33] <rciovati> hi guys i've just installed ubuntu 11.10. i have a little problem, i think related with mouse/touchpad. sometimes seems that it goes crazy and it change itself like seekbars or other window compones. any idea?
[12:34] <nishttal2> good morning guys.. its 7:30 am here on a saturday.. thats why asked..
[12:34] <nishttal2> i just installed 10.10 on my macbook pro.. everything looks great except for 2 very crippling issues
[12:34] <nishttal2> 1) there is no sound
[12:35] <rciovati> 10.10?
[12:35] <nishttal2> 2) bootup takes 10 minutes (literally).. most of the time 9mins it sits on a blank screen with just a blinking cursor at top left of the screen
[12:35] <nishttal2> can someone help ?
[12:36] <MonkeyDust> !10.10
[12:36] <oCean> !rootirc | root
[12:36] <Princey> hmm
[12:36] <Princey> my sound isnt working either :/
[12:36] <Princey> it was working yesturday...what the hell
[12:36] <bc81> nishttal2: have you checked the integrity of the install image?
[12:37] <Princey> 11.10 and ibm thinkpad x220t
[12:37] <Princey> any ideas folks ? :(
[12:37] <nishttal2> bc81.. how do you mean?
[12:37] <Guest74941>  hey
[12:37] <nishttal2> i installed the 32-bit 10.10 download
[12:38] <Guest74941> saasa
[12:38] <bc81> nishttal2: when you download the image, you should check the integrity of the file (also if you burn it to a cd)
[12:39] <nishttal2> bc81.. install went fine from CD.. i have a working system except for those two issues
[12:41] <nishttal2> is there another forum for running ubuntu on mac?
[12:42] <MonkeyDust> nishttal2  this link may be useful https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOnMac
[12:42] <bc81> nishttal2: this might be a good starting point: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook  also, you might need sound drivers
[12:43] <nishttal2> MonkeyDust, that link says that sound should work out of the box for macbook 4,1 and 10.10.. but it doesnt
[12:45] <bc81> nishttal2: then maybe reinstall (or check the integrity of installation disk)
[12:46] <petrarch> cawhat does ~ mean?
[12:46] <nishttal2> bc81, i have installed several times and different versions (10.10 32-bit/64-bit, 11.04 32/64 bit) sound is always an issue
[12:46] <tueyza> setup.py  how to install
[12:46] <nishttal2> bc81.. how can i check system boot up log.. to see why bootup takes 10 mins
[12:47] <tueyza> wicd-1.7.1   > ls > s.pyetup
[12:47] <tueyza> setup.py
[12:47] <bc81> nishttal2: have you looked at system>administration>additional drivers (for your sound issue)
[12:48] <nishttal2> bc81, 4 drivers popped up.. 2 nvidia and 2 wireless cards
[12:48] <bc81> nishttal2: system>administration>log file viewer..or when it's booting/hangs i believe you can press escape to see real-time messages
[12:48] <nishttal2> bc81, nothing for sounf
[12:49] <bc81> nishttal2: sound is working in live-cd environments or no?
[12:49] <nishttal2> bc81, i didnt check the livecd.. went straight to install

[13:14] <skinnux99> im not sure if this server can boot a usb device
[13:14] <skinnux99> can it network boot?
[13:14] <aramis> maybe not
[13:14] <jwinterm> there should be a key right after bios posts to select boot device
[13:14] <jwinterm> f11
[13:14] <jwinterm> probably
[13:14] <jwinterm> put a usb drive in there and see if it is detected

[14:14] <melvincv> daniel, hang on then, but join #ubuntu-offtopic for general talk. This is the support channel.
[14:15] <kaspi> I can't install Ubuntu. Always I boot the image and select the installation language, the screen freezes and  I can't do anything. I downloaded the ISO several times, different versions, tried different media to boot  from (even netboot). I'm stuck, any ideas?
[14:16] <FesterJester> I vnc to my ubuntu 10.04 machine and am presented with a terminal window. If I close that terminal by mistake I have to disconnect and reconnect to get it back. How can I make one reopen or keep one from closing?
[14:16] <Muelli> kaspi: have you veryfied the integrety of the medium? If so, check with memcheck whether your memory is alright.
[14:16] <gekko1506> bazhang : i tried  change values in php.ini, httpd.conf, apache.conf, ... and even not find anything usefull on web. on web server it works, but localhost, since i re-installed ubuntu, it's limited to 1000 values
[14:17] <bazhang> gekko1506, the channel here on freenode #httpd is most assuredly not empty. I'm in there now. lets move it there
[14:17] <gekko1506> oh ok
[14:18] <kaspi> Muelli: if I run memory test, it freezes the same way
[14:19] <gekko1506> cannot send to channel
[14:19] <bazhang> !register | gekko1506
[14:19] <nash_> hmm bc81 it does not work :(
[14:19] <bazhang> gekko1506, /join #freenode for help with registering
[14:20] <oldman> Does Ubuntu work with class 10 sd cards. I believe there were some problems in the past.
[14:20] <kaspi> Muelli: is it possible the memory would be broken? would the computer be able to even boot with a broken memory?
[14:20] <babinicz> kaspi: try F6 "acpi=off"
[14:20] <bazhang> oldman, got a bug report?
[14:20] <gekko1506> should be ok soon
[14:21] <nash_> GID=`getent group '$GROUP' | cut -d: -f3`     what is wrong ?

[14:22] <meet> that was in mint to  be precise but ubuntu base nevertheless
[14:22] <bazhang> meet, thats a mint issue, nada to do with ubuntu
[14:23] <bc81> nash_: can you post a like to the entire script?  you might also try asking in the forums
[14:23] <meet> ok. also i deselect firefox updates everytime but while downloading it downloads them..what could be he problem?

[14:30] <kaspi> babinicz: again... everytime I simply load the linux image, it's frozen... there's just shown a menu and I can't select with the keyboard
[14:31] <Muelli> kaspi: well. if the memtest fails, your memory is broken.
[14:31] <Muelli> I'd say.
[14:31] <kaspi> okay, thanks
[14:31] <Muelli> could be smth else, but it's a hardware condition.
[14:31] <rumba> Hi! So this afternoon when I booted up my computer, it detected only one CPU core. I have a dual core and yesterday it detected both cores properly. Now I can only see one core in /proc/cpuinfo (running Kubuntu 11.10). Any ideas what might have happened?
[14:32] <Muelli> kaspi: you could try to instruct linux to not load the broken area, it's called "badmem" IIRC. Google might know.

[14:38] <onur_> hey, anyone knows about ftp server?
[14:38] <OerHeks> rumba, it shows core id : 0 cpu cores : 1 , so something is wrong in your bios, or broken.
[14:38] <FesterJester> onur_: what is problem?
[14:38] <onur_> i installed vsftpd
[14:39] <onur_> now i want the other people connect it

[14:39] <onur_> i don't have any static IP. is that possible for them to connect my server?
[14:40] <FesterJester> onur_: You will have to give them you ip address everytime you want them to connect
[14:40] <FesterJester> onur_: or use a DDNS
[14:40] <hartley> most routers have ddns support.
[14:40] <onur_> i controlled my ifconfig. there's many ip addresses. should i use Broadcast address?
[14:40] <mongy> !sftp | onur_
[14:40] <onur_> sorry for my knowlegde btw:)
[14:41] <hartley> ddns is what i always used back when i didnt have a static ip through my old old old provider.
[14:41] <onur_> ddns. thanks a lot. i'll try it
[14:41] <FesterJester> onur_: hartley is going in the right direction. Thanks hartley
[14:42] <biosystemaltered> quit
[14:42] <onur_> Thanks all of you guys.

[15:05] <FesterJester> onur_:

[15:10] <adadeiaiutrix> Who boots who? And locked out HD except through XP. Would prefer include ubuntu on windows os boot screen but considering set up, may not work: /dev/sda is XP with several partitions, last is free for whatever, this is IDE drive. Ubuntu LTSP 10.04 on /dev/sdc all for this OS and a SATA drive. /dev/sdb is the big drive that I would like to use for multi OS file storage, this is SATA as well, but can only access through Win
[15:10] <adadeiaiutrix>  XP. Even root user in Ubuntu can't access this drive. Very strange...
[15:10] <Lantizia> bazhang, why? its on topic since I need ubuntu/linux friendly hardware
[15:10] <Abhijit> Bubo, after install w7 in the blank space you need to boot into live cd and from there you need to reinstall the grub

[15:19] <Emil> E: Unable to locate package linux-kernel-devel
[15:20] <bazhang> Emil, what guide, link please

[15:20] <bazhang> Emil, thats from 4 years ago, you realize
[15:20] <willdog> 802.11g	 WPN511 (rev. 1)	 man:168c dev:0013	 Cardbus	 Atheros	 ath5k	vert	 Driver included in the mainline kernel since 2.6.25.
[15:20] <Shedevil> how much difference is there between running 1 4gb ram stick and 2x2gb in dual channel
[15:21] <BlouBlou> Shedevil: if you have 2 and one breaks, you'll still have the other one
[15:21] <aguitel> how remove games ?
[15:21] <bazhang> aguitel, how ere they installed
[15:21] <BlouBlou> Shedevil: There's no real difference in perfomance :)
[15:21] <czx> aguitel, sudo apt-get purge gnome-games-common
[15:22] <FesterJester> aguitel: in ubuntu 10.04 it is 'sudo apt-get remove gnome-games-common'
[15:22] <Shedevil> but what is the performance difference
[15:22] <bazhang> !info oprofile | Emil
[15:22] <Shedevil> how much do you gain by having dual channel
[15:22] <BlouBlou> Shedevil: I have 4 channels, and works fine.
[15:22] <Shedevil> you have quad-channel ram?
[15:22] <BlouBlou> Shedevil: Yes.
[15:22] <aguitel> thanks
[15:23] <beasty> hmm hi all
[15:23] <beasty> small question
[15:23] <beasty> i have 16gb of ram in my system
[15:23] <beasty> but for some reason ubuntu shows only 3.5
[15:23] <Kaizer> @ Shedevil. With a single 4gig stick it next upgrade could be 8
[15:23] <BlouBlou> beasty: Yes, install Ubuntu-64
[15:23] <bazhang> beasty, 64bit system installed?
[15:23] <Shedevil> you need 64 bit
[15:24] <beasty> BlouBlou: no this is a 32 bit system
[15:24] <beasty> ok
[15:24] <LjL> beasty: a 32-bit system with 16GB of RAM?
[15:24] <beasty> yes
[15:24] <LjL> beasty: that seems unlikely.
[15:24] <BlouBlou> beasty: It won't detect 16 then, you need the 64-bits edition
[15:24] <bazhang> install the pae kernel then beasty
[15:24] <beasty> bazhang: ?
[15:25] <BlouBlou> !pae | beasty
[15:25] <bazhang> LjL, it only shows 3.5
[15:25] <LjL> bazhang: right, but when instructed to install 64-bit Ubuntu, he said it's a 32-bit system. i have my doubt a pure 32-bit system would have 16GB of RAM.
[15:25] <Jacruth> hi there, how could I know If I can use special setting on my video card, for example ARB_SYNC?
[15:25] <Shedevil> why is he using 32-bit OS though, downloaded the wrong .iso by accident or has a 32 bit proc?
[15:25] <lukasz_> jest ktos z pl?
[15:26] <LjL> !pl | lukasz_
[15:26] <Shedevil> what is his processor
[15:26] <bazhang> lukasz_, english here please Polish in #ubuntu-pl
[15:27] <czx> if ha has a mb for 16gb, he definitely has 64-bit processor
[15:27] <gryxon> ./join #ubuntu-pl
