[13:40] <misc--> allu2: may be it's the screensaver or something along those lines that's causing it... I've seen a few cases recently where that's happened
[13:40] <_ting_> I need to access to system->hardware drivers
[13:40] <_ting_> but through out the terminal
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> weez^:  for my one laptop that used STA - i ended up just installing the drivers via apt-get..
[13:40] <allu2> misc--, it freezez randomly by any random act i do, sometime it runs for days and sometimes just few minutes

[13:41] <misc--> allu2: can you push ctrl-alt-f1 to get to a console, when it freezes? I guess it's not a complete freeze because you can still ssh in to it

[13:42] <Dr_Willis> weez^:  on one box. the sta drivers dident even work for me.  I dont have that laptop any more. so havent used them in a few months.
[13:42] <allu2> misc--, nothing happens, clock ticks on the panel and i can ssh on it
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> weez^:  You could just try installing them via the command line. and not use the hardqaredrivers tool

[13:43] <c3l> henry_: hi there, this channel is relativly bussy, if you got a question, just ask it, if you just want to talk, #ubuntu-offtopic is then the challen :)

[13:43] <henry_> ok thanks - just really having a look, thanks thou!!
[13:43] <Serafeim> How can I open a pdf porfolio in ubuntu?
[13:44] <misc--> allu2: to verify that it really is just the input, you could maybe enable remote desktop (system -> preferences -> remote desktop) and then see if you can vnc to it when it freezes again
[13:44] <Guest43929> hi henry
[13:44] <allu2> misc--, if i press powerbutton it promps out the shutdown options but well i can't press them :P

[13:45] <spanther> yay 10.10 works awesome on my ASUS eeePC 1005p :)
[13:45] <ikonia> weez^: why do you want to use aircrack if your wirless network is working
[13:46] <ikonia> spanther: #ubuntu+1 for 10.10 discussion
[13:46] <misc--> allu2: I'm thiking... but I can't think of anything to try...
[13:46] <allu2> ikonia, he wants to uses neigbours ultra fast 100mb/s connection? :P
[13:46] <spanther> ikonia, i don't want to discuss about it ;)
[13:46] <allu2> :D
[13:46] <ikonia> allu2: please don't suggest things that aren't true unless you know they are
[13:46] <ikonia> spanther: then please don't make pointless statements about it
[13:47] <allu2> ikonia, sorry, for having humor :S
[13:47] <ikonia> allu2: no problem
[13:47] <c3l> hahaha
[13:47] <spanther> ikonia, the point is, others now know about it too. was not pointless :)
[13:47] <weez^> ikonia: i got wifi connections around me....i can't afford to have one...so might help to access others.... :(
[13:47] <ikonia> weez^: that is illegal and we will not discuss/support it in this channel
[13:48] <ikonia> spanther: ok - I'll make it clear, Please don't talk about ubuntu 10.10 in this channel, #ubuntu+1 only
[13:48] <xxx> hello

[13:48] <ikonia> Guest79209: it is, welcome
[13:48] <weez^> ikonia: yup! sorry
[13:48] <c3l> spanther: this is a support channel, people ask questions and people who know the answer helps. for geleral talk about ubuntu or anything else, go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:48] <Guest79209> ok I gonna change channel too
[13:48] <Guest79209> just wanted to test irssi
[13:48] <spanther> c3l, ok :)
[13:49] <misc--> why can't people talk about ubuntu 10.10?
[13:49] <Serafeim> I have a pdf file that is a portfolio. That means than a single pdf file contains many pdf documents (for example my pdf portfolio has 130 pdf documents). When I open this portfolio with the evince programme I get this messange: For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Reader 9, or later. I downloaded the Acrobat Reader and everything was ok. I could read the pdf documents. I am wondering if is out there an
[13:49] <c3l> misc--: they can, in #uvuntu+1
[13:49] <misc--> ahh.. it's because it's not out yet
[13:49] <c3l> misc--: this channel is for support with the current stable release
[13:50] <misc--> ah ok fair enough
[13:50] <c3l> (including older, but still alive versions, as 9.10 for example)
[13:51] <misc--> cool

[13:52] <amanita_> Hi, is there any way to send text message from Ekiga to my buddy who is on Skype?
[13:54] <DexterF> hi
[13:55] <DexterF> after an upgrade from 9.04 over 9.10 to 10.04 there are a lot of network timeouts while browsing
[13:55] <DexterF> is there a known issue?
[13:55] <Pelo> morning folks
[13:56] <DexterF> cheers
[13:57] <soreau> DexterF: Does it happen on a 10.04 live session? If not, its likely caused through the upgrading somehow (as opposed to clean install)
[13:57] <Serafeim> same problem with DexterF. Using ubuntu 10.04 64-bit version
[13:57] <Pelo> I nedd to play switcheroo with a couple of hdds, 80 gig from a linux machine and 12 gig from an xp machine, I don' T mind reintalling the xp machine but I'd like to just copy the stuff over from the linux one , any tool for that,   got another comp to do the actual work
[13:57] <Ubuwhat> Looking for SANE support.
[13:57] <c3l> DexterF: quite a lot of users experience trouble when upgrading between versions. I would personally recommend to do a clean install for each new version, just keeping a backup of /home and maybe your installed packages
[13:58] <soreau> Pelo: you need more space for windoze?
[13:58] <allu2> misc--, thanks but there is 105 pages with no answer i'm afraid :(
[13:58] <Pelo> soreau, more space for  itune 10 and related content
[13:58] <zepek_14> which is the remastersys package on Ubuntu 10.04 ? (remaster is the remastersys ? )
[13:58] <Ubuwhat> Just bought a new scanner - and for some reason it won't budge - although it supposed to work 'good' with SANE
[13:58] <soreau> Pelo: maybe try #windoze then
[13:58] <Pelo> soreau , the linux machine is only a client machine anyway , no need for the extra space
[13:58] <misc--> allu2: that's no good :/
[13:59] <allu2> misc--, yeah :(
[13:59] <Pelo> soreau, no , this is a linux issue,  need to move a CLI system from one hdd to another whithout reinstaling
[13:59] <allu2> misc--, and i need to use that laptop in 45min test in IT in 2 weeks :S can't imagine it freeze in middle!
[13:59] <soreau> Pelo: try #linux
[13:59] <Pelo> Ubuwhat, there is a #sane channel
[13:59] <misc--> allu2: oohhh that definitely wouldn't be good
[14:00] <allu2> misc--, yeah :S
[14:00] <Ubuwhat> Pelo, thank you. will try it
[14:00] <allu2> misc--, indeed :(
[14:00] <misc--> allu2: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[14:00] <llutz> Pelo: linux systems can be moved/copied easily with rsync

[14:01] <karju> como estan amigos
[14:01] <Raptors> Does anyone know if the new flash player plugin supports hardware acceleration?
[14:01] <Pelo> llutz, that might be an idea,  never thought of using rsync for this particular job
[14:01] <llutz> Pelo: you have to reinstall grub after that and adjust /etc/fstab to new UUIDS
[14:01] <Raptors> http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
[14:01] <llutz> Pelo: you also can use "cp -ax" or tar
[14:02] <Pelo> llua, fstab I knew about, hope it'S not grub 2
[14:02] <Pelo> llutz, -ax ?
[14:02] <DexterF> c3l: not an option, not my machine
[14:03] <llutz> Pelo: you don't want /sys /dev  being copied, so -x (man cp)

[14:06] <llutz> Pelo: no, you have to mount it and copy then
[14:06] <flexy> Pelo: copy it from and to mount points, not device names

[14:07] <zepek_14> how to install remastersys on ubuntu 10.04? is the remaster package is the application which i want ?
[14:07] <actionParsnip> !remaster
[14:08] <bu2bu2> Pelo, late to the conversation but just make sure the system you are copying is not in use
[14:08] <bazhang> zepek_14, has to be installed from 3rd party sources
[14:08] <zepek_14> bazhang: what you mena with 3rd?
[14:08] <zepek_14> bazhang: i have to install the deb package ?
[14:08] <Pelo> bu2bu2, I was planning to put the two drives in a 3rd computer to do the job from
[14:08] <bazhang> zepek_14, non-ubuntu sources
[14:08] <zepek_14> bazhang: it is not on software center ?
[14:08] <bazhang> zepek_14, nope
[14:08] <xbonesx> can we get back track support considering it based on ubuntu?
[14:09] <bazhang> xbonesx, no
[14:09] <zepek_14> bazhang: what is remaster package ?
[14:09] <bazhang> xbonesx, #backtrack-linux
[14:09] <bazhang> zepek_14, ubuntu customization kit to remaster iso's
[14:09] <flexy> zoneminder not starting at boot? why?
[14:09] <actionParsnip> xbonesx: no, just like ubuntu doesnt get support in debian channels. backtrack has its own channel #backtrack-linux
[14:09] <zepek_14> bazhang: hmm ok. thank you!
[14:10] <actionParsnip> xbonesx: backtrack is based on ubuntu, however it isn't ubuntu. It's backtrack
[14:11] <dennisn> I just installed beta 10.10, i think successfully ... but when i boot it up, after i login (graphically), i don't get a desktop
[14:11] <dennisn> (just the wallpaper, and a mouse cursor :s)
[14:11] <Katsumi32> the whole backtrack is useless ubuntu is better u can install everything u have got in backtrack. in general backtrack is based on interpid so very old
[14:11] <bazhang> dennisn, #ubuntu+1 for that
[14:11] <dennisn> k
[14:11] <bazhang> Katsumi32, and offtopic here
[14:12] <xbonesx> actionParsnip: makes sense...
[14:12] <Katsumi32> bazhang, i know it
[14:12] <bazhang> Katsumi32, so why talk about it
[14:12] <Katsumi32> cuz someone was asking about 5 times
[14:12] <bazhang> Katsumi32, offtopic chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:13] <xbonesx> Katsumi32: are their specific repositories for back-track?
[14:13] <Katsumi32> xbonesx, yes
[14:13] <bazhang> xbonesx, #backtrack-linux please
[14:13] <Pelo> thanks you all

[14:16] <MohammadAG> An IRC client, http://xchat.org
[14:16] <zzt> i am from china
[14:17] <actionParsnip> ksbalaji: the link will show the cli method also

[14:19] <fyksen> Ahh, okey sry
[14:19] <morbidwar> hi, it is posible to make an archive that includes the date?? ex: tar -cvf documents$DATA.tar /home/user/Documents? i need to create archives every night and i want them to go automaticly using contab
[14:19] <xbonesx> when typing 'sudo -s' what does the '-s' mean?
[14:20] <johnswr> s=super
[14:20] <Ubuwhat> actionParsnip, I did. sane mentioned "good" support for this model
[14:21] <actionParsnip> xbonesx: if you use -s you can ruin home ownerships as -s user the users profile rather than roots
[14:21] <actionParsnip> Ubuwhat: cool, lets see what we can find
[14:21] <Seveas> morbidwar, yes it is
[14:21] <xbonesx> actionParsnip: i thought thats what 'sudo su' is for???
[14:22] <abdee> hyt
[14:22] <Seveas> morbidwar, tar zcvf documents_$(date +%Y-%m-%d_:%M:%S).tar.gz /home/user/Documents
[14:22] <actionParsnip> Ubuwhat: is it an Epson GT-2500 ?
[14:22] <Seveas> morbidwar, tar zcvf documents_$(date +%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M:%S).tar.gz /home/user/Documents
[14:22] <Ubuwhat> actionParsnip, yes it is
[14:22] <actionParsnip> xbonesx: sudo su   isnt advised, sudo -i   is to be used to avoid issues
[14:22] <Seveas> stupid xchat stripped %H :)
[14:23] <actionParsnip> Ubuwhat: please dont truncate product names, it makes searches harder and less accurate
[14:23] <xbonesx> whats 'su' for then cuz thats what ive been using to get super user
[14:24] <actionParsnip> Ubuwhat: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man5/sane-epkowa.5.html
[14:24] <Seveas> xbonesx, su can only be executed as root or with sudo. It allows the superuser to become someone else. sudo is a more generic way of doing this, usable by non-root users too
[14:24] <Seveas> xbonesx, sudo su makes you execute su as root, a fairly pointless action :)
[14:24] <Seveas> sudo -i is enough
[14:25] <actionParsnip> Ubuwhat: http://avasys.jp/eng/linux_driver/test_result.php   use the debs there, may help
[14:25] <quiescens> that's not true, su can be run by anyone, just that it requires the password of the user you're trying to su to
[14:25] <xbonesx> so use 'sudo -s' when i want super user control then???
[14:25] <Seveas> quiescens, eh, point taken :)
[14:25] <Seveas> xbonesx, no, sudo -i
[14:25] <xbonesx> whats "-i" mean?
[14:25] <Ubuwhat> actionParsnip, tahnk you. will give it a try.
[14:25] <xbonesx> and "0s"
[14:26] <xbonesx> "-s"
[14:26] <Seveas> The -i (simulate initial login) option runs the shell specified in the passwd(5) entry of the target user as a login shell.
[14:26] <duffydack> interactive, i think
[14:26] <duffydack> or that^
[14:26] <Seveas> read the manpage for all details
[14:26] <xbonesx> Seveas: manpage???
[14:27] <rafaelsoaresbr> hello, how to install mysql workbench (or similar)?
[14:27] <Ubuwhat> actionParsnip, do you know how to access SANE  backend interface?
[14:27] <Seveas> you want to do commandline things as root and don't even know what manpages are? tsk tsk...
[14:27] <Seveas> xbonesx, on the commandline, type this: man sudo
[14:27] <xbonesx> ok
[14:27] <morbidwar> Seveas: Thank you
[14:27] <actionParsnip> Ubuwhat: no idea dude. I've only encountered 1 scanner in my life and the iscan made it work (was also an epson)
[14:29] <xbonesx> the mac video editing software i think called "isight" can you get something like that for ubuntu?
[14:30] <dirty-harry>  hi there, anyone here who knows how to activate the desktop-icon-starter-reaction in xubuntu lucid lynx; option "give visual reaction is marked"

[14:33] <jimcooncat>  I'm interested in the gtk-server provided by gtk-server.org. I don't see where it's in ubuntu. Googling "ubuntu gtk-server" leads me nowhere. Perhaps there's some quality issue why it's not packaged. Any ideas how I find out?
[14:33] <actionParsnip> xbonesx: it uses roots config so will be fairly bare but you wont garbage you users files to make then owned by root
[14:33] <dennisn> (i solved my no-desktop-display problem by apt-get removing compiz-core and libdecoration0. :b)
[14:33] <kuttan_> Seveas, that one way, but any app like gconf-cleaner ? thanks for responding by the way
[14:34] <ryaxnb> oh dear, im not in offtopic :(
[14:34] <xbonesx> actionParsnip: ahh... i get it, "su" sets for command and set the beginning directory to my /home/username/
[14:34] <noamsml> Gnome power manager seems to warn me the battery is critically low whenever I disconnect the AC (even if it's full). Is there any way to disable that completely?
[14:34] <sandking> Seveas: thx
[14:35] <xbonesx> actionParsnip: i know a lot of execution lines have "4" in front of them what does that do?
[14:35] <noamsml> Nvm, found it. I just had to disable use_time_for_policy
[14:36] <Seveas> kuttan_, not that I know of

[14:37] <kkal> how can I make a bootable winxp usb installer from ubuntu?
[14:37] <actionParsnip> xbonesx: $ is the user prompt
[14:37] <kkal> unetbootin and usb-creator didnt work
[14:37] <v3nd3tta``> kkal for what do you need a winxp usb installer?
[14:37] <jimcooncat> xbonesx: That means you can run it as a regular user. # is used to show that you run it as root
[14:37] <zepek_14> which is the sunJava package on Ubuntu 10.04 ?
[14:37] <v3nd3tta``> you mean
[14:38] <kkal> v3nd3tta``: just need to create a dualboot system
[14:38] <v3nd3tta``> boot from usb a liveubuntu ?
[14:38] <ZykoticK9> zepek_14, you need to add the "partner" repository to get "Sun" java stuff
[14:38] <v3nd3tta``> or win xp live
[14:38] <kkal> v3nd3tta``: I want to install winxp with a usb drive. But I want to make the usb drive in ubuntu
[14:38] <v3nd3tta``> uhm
[14:39] <xbonesx> ok
[14:39] <v3nd3tta``> legally you cannot install win xp per usb or anything else than the official cd's or dvd's kkal
[14:39] <actionParsnip> kkal: http://liliputing.com/2008/04/install-windows-xp-on-mini-note-usb.html
[14:39] <zepek_14> ZykoticK9:  ok. tahnk you i will do it.
[14:39] <actionParsnip> v3nd3tta``: i think the destination is usb, which is fine
[14:39] <kkal> v3nd3tta``: then why are they letting me have licensed isos from dreamspark?
[14:40] <v3nd3tta``> idk? maybe it's MICROSOFT :P? kkal
[14:40] <v3nd3tta``> they never make sense :D
[14:40] <kkal> its always a pain in the ass getting windows on a netbook
[14:41] <kkal> and its also a pain in the ass getting things to work once thats happened too
[14:41] <ZykoticK9> !ot | kkal
[14:42] <kkal> okay. on-topic: is there a tool for ubuntu for creating a bootable winxp usb installers?
[14:42] <actionParsnip> kkal: unetbootin may support it
[14:43] <kkal> actionParsnip: tried it, but it doesnt have an option for winxp
[14:43] <jimcooncat> kkal: there is http://unattended.sourceforge.net/ to do it with netbooting. The servers (TFTP, DHCP, etc) can be installed on Ubuntu
[14:43] <histo> kkal: not that i've seen.  you need to look at the bartpe stuff maybe.
[14:43] <kkal> jimcooncat: thats not a road I want to go down :D
[14:44] <actionParsnip> kkal: all i can find are windows systems putting xp on usb. you could use grub2 to boot the iso
[14:44] <mestar> Hey Ubuntu. I have  a problem and I am wondering if there is any way I can fix it. Basically for whatever reason my memory stick has turned Read Only. I cant delete any files from it no matter what I do, I even tried formatting it from gparted (No important data on there at the moment). Anyone got any suggestions how I can format this USB stick?
[14:44] <histo> kkal: check out bartpe its a bootable live windows cd/dvd
[14:44] <histo> kkal: i've seen people put it on usb.
[14:44] <MohammadAG> is (gedit:11462): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: Cannot open pixbuf loader module file '/usr/lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache': No such file or directory normal while upgrading to maverick?
[14:45] <kkal> histo: am checking that right now.
[14:45] <ToStItOs> Why are updates noted as not authenticated?
[14:45] <actionParsnip> mestar: unmount the partition and the stick will be a simple block device. if yuo look into mount options you can mount it readable and the format wont be necessary
[14:45] <kkal> actionParsnip: using grub2 to boot an iso, now thats a novel idea
[14:45] <listerdl> Mestar - try maybe putting the drive into a windows and re-format to NTFS?
[14:45] <MohammadAG> ToStItOs, Could be a missing GPG, run apt-get update and see if it corrects it
[14:45] <actionParsnip> kkal: its one of the things grub legacy cant do :)
[14:46] <mestar> Listerdl, not sure how to do that from windows
[14:46] <ToStItOs> MohammadAG, but they are safe right?
[14:46] <orange_> jakarta
[14:46] <mestar> and actionParsnip, what do you mean>
[14:46] <listerdl> mestar - simply lug it in and right click - format - that might be an idea - otherwise sorry not too sure....(I did that before and it worked)
[14:46] <listerdl> *plug
[14:47] <PewZ> join #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:47] <ToStItOs> MuhammadAG the updates are safe?
[14:47] <mestar> Hmm listerdl, I will try it
[14:48] <MohammadAG> ToStItOs, yeah
[14:49] <septimus> Hello all, looking for some help with my 10.04 install.
[14:49] <morbidwar> septimus: what's the problem?
[14:50] <actionParsnip> mestar: you can specify mount options to mount the partition as writable if you use mount correctly
[14:50] <septimus> Everything is working well, but I'm trying to recompile the kernel for fun..
[14:50] <septimus> Is there a way I can specify CFLAGS to do so (like Gentoo?)
[14:51] <estathe72> hy
[14:51] <estathe72> is here  some italian __
[14:51] <estathe72> ?
[14:52] <mestar> actionParsnip, thanks
[14:52] <mestar> Done it fully =D
[14:54] <BluesKaj> 'morning folks
[14:54] <septimus_> Morning
[14:55] <jvargas> hi
[14:55] <aeon-ltd> time relative greeting
[14:55] <ehcah> hello. if I have 2 DL380 G4's in my rack. The first is production, the second is test. My production box is starting to give me trouble. Can I remove the 2 mirrored drives from production and reboot the test box to become production? Would the only problem become the MAC address of my original product eth0 NIC?
[14:56] <ehcah> Sorry if this is stupid.
[14:56] <jvargas> i have serious problems with Ubuntu 10.04 with latests updates. The system CRASHES after some minutes using it, it seems to be a kernel PANIC, but logs doesn't show anything before it happened.
[14:56] <xbonesx> whats a good desktop video recording software for ubuntu, for making like tutorials and stuff?
[14:56] <septimus_> mgolisch...sorry mate, I'm new to this IRC thing, did you get my question?
[14:56] <jvargas> anyone head of such problem lastly ?
[14:56] <BluesKaj> aeon-ltd, we're pretty tolerant here but political correctness isn't necessary :)
[14:57] <actionParsnip> xbonesx: recordmydesktop maybe
[14:57] <septimus_> jvargas, the kernel should not panic...generic kernel has it disabled. I compiled my kernel last night
[14:57] <septimus_> took about 6 bloody hours
[14:58] <xbonesx> actionParsnip: is the in the reg repositories?
[14:58] <jvargas> septimus_: so, what is going on when caps an num lock flashes and screen and everything gets halted?
[14:58] <actionParsnip> !info recordmydesktop
[14:59] <pokoko222> i have a file from windows for the MAC C Times font, and i want to install it in openoffice writer in ubuntu, how to do it?
[14:59] <septimus_> jvargas: Did you try the failsafe kernel at startup? Hit shift after the POST screen for GRUB options.
[15:00] <listrophy> I'm trying to automate the unintended install of rabbitmq-server via linode stackscripts, but I stops half-way because rabbitmq-server puts up a whiptail dialog. how would I get that dialog dismissed from within a script?
[15:00] <jvargas> why my CAPS and NUM lock flashes intermitently and the system halts anfer some minutes using it (10.04) ?
[15:00] <ertpresso> pokoko222: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts
[15:00] <septimus_> I am a Linux n00b, perhaps somebody else can provide a more accurate diagnosis?
[15:00] <jvargas> septimus_: what kind of options should I specify there?

[15:01] <Eltu> Hi
[15:01] <actionParsnip> jvargas: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/372671
[15:01] <Eltu> I have some problems
[15:02] <BlueEagle> !ask|eltu
[15:02] <jvargas> actionParsnip: "it means the kernel has crashed". ok, but how can I dig into the real problem behind?
[15:02] <aeon-ltd> BluesKaj: lol, i was just filling in the time
[15:02] <actionParsnip> jvargas: read dmesg and the kernel log
[15:02] <listrophy> i've tried (to no avail) stuff like: echo "" | aptitude -y install rabbitmq-server
[15:03] <septimus_> jvargas: Just select the appropriate kernel image at boot (failsafe). You should find many options when you hit shift
[15:03] <Eltu> Whenever I plug in my new mouse, I cannot click anything, not with the mouse NOR with the touchpad. I have to plug out the mouse and restart the os for the touchpad to work again. Why does not the mouse work, and how can I fix this?
[15:03] <BSODOfThePast> is it true
[15:03] <BSODOfThePast> that linux gives you eyecancer?
[15:04] <BlueEagle> Eltu: Does it work if you have the mouse plugged in when booting?
[15:04] <totem> how to install virtualbox on ubuntu 10.04? it's hard to do?
[15:04] <septimus_> Folks, anybody know where to find the make.conf file?? I am trying to compile my slimmed down kernel with optimized CFLAGS. {Similar to Gentoo}
[15:04] <Eltu> I do not know, I will try.
[15:04] <BluesKaj> BSODOfThePast  do you have a relavent question about ubuntu ?
[15:04] <BSODOfThePast> yeah
[15:04] <BSODOfThePast> on /g/ they said linux can give you eyecancer
[15:04] <BSODOfThePast> is that true?
[15:04] <Rickardo1> Panic.. My linux machine don´t start.. mount all filesystem can not be mounted
[15:05] <actionParsnip> Rickardo1: boot to liveCD and fsck your partitions
[15:05] <Rickardo1> ok
[15:05] <BlueEagle> !ot| BSODOfThePast
[15:05] <BSODOfThePast> lol sorry
[15:05] <BSODOfThePast> . /troll
[15:07] <BluesKaj> BSODOfThePast, how could you even consider asking such a question and expect an answer to it ..if you want to troll go elsewhere pls.
[15:08] <listrophy> during an aptitude install of rabbitmq-server, it presents a full-screen blue background dialog (via whiptail). How can I – from a script – dismiss it by virtually hitting "return"?
[15:09] <TrXuk> Hi all, quick question, running an 8.10 derivative and due to needed hardware support i've upgraded linux-image packages to 2.6.3x, however, remote netboot clients now cannot mount NFS, saying NFS Over TCP is not available from the host. Could someone point me in the right direction? nfsd.ko and nfs.ko modules are both loaded from the /lib/modules/2.6.3x directory
[15:09] <Eltu> BlueEagle: I tried to have it plugged in when booting. It works just at the beginning - however, as soon as I open a folder/app, both the mouse and touchpad becomes completely unresponsible.
[15:09] <septimus_> Is there another channel where I can ask kernel specific questions?
[15:09] <BluesKaj> !patience | listrophy
[15:09] <ibrahim-kasem> I have downloaded the package files only for an application, where can I fine the files now please?
[15:10] <neekers> ok, dumb question, i just changed my ssh over to using keys and i'm still having to login with my user name and rsa passphrase, i thought having keys would allow you to not have to do that in putty?
[15:10] <septimus_> Eltu: Some laptops have additional binaries you can install. Check the repos
[15:10] <jvargas> actionParsnip: I already read dmesg and syslog, there is nothing there, except a APT Daemon requesting shutdown several minutes before.
[15:10] <listrophy> BluesKaj: just trying to refine my phrasing.
[15:11] <actionParsnip> jvargas: does the bug give you any clues?
[15:11] <Eltu> septimus_: What kind of binaries?
[15:11] <TrXuk> neekers: If your RSA private key is protected by a passphrase, you will need to type that to 'unlock' the RSA key before ssh can use it
[15:11] <RPG-Master> I'm getting this error when I go to mount my external HDD: "Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdb1 is already mounted on /mount failed"
[15:11] <geoffmcc> neekers: use pagent
[15:11] <RPG-Master> Help D:
[15:11] <BlueEagle> Eltu: Ok. I want you to `ls -l /dev/input/by-path/*|grep mouse` and post the output to !pastebin
[15:11] <gentood> Hi, I just installed ubuntu 10.04 lts and it won't turn off, why?
[15:12] <BluesKaj> quite a technical question , listrophy ...not many questions about rabbitmq server here, never seen even one in fact.
[15:12] <BlueEagle> gentood: "Won't turn off" as in hangs when shutting down or as in doesn't perform the ACPI-call to turn it off?
[15:12] <geoffmcc> neekers: when u import key into program it will ask you for password. but as long as u dont close program key will remain in there free to connect without entering password
[15:12] <TrXuk> neekers: there is a way to cache the RSA key password on your system, so that it is available to putty while you are logged in, as geoffmcc  has just pointed out, it's called pagent
[15:12] <gentood> BlueEagle,  When I click shut down, it kills all the processes and then get's stuck...
[15:13] <listrophy> BluesKaj: technically it's not about rabbitmq, it's about including a whiptail dialog into the install process
[15:13] <gentood> BlueEagle,  Probably...
[15:14] <neekers> TrXuk and geoffmcc: thanks, looking at pageant right now, will i need to do something similar for my macbook pro or will i just be able to use the mac's terminal window?
[15:14] <BluesKaj> listrophy, whiptail dialog ? :)
[15:14] <Eltu> BlueEagle: I cannot do that
[15:14] <BlueEagle> Eltu: What can you not do?
[15:14] <listrophy> BluesKaj: basically ncurses saying "here's a warning about upgrading" even though I'm installing on a clean box. *facepalm
[15:15] <Eltu> When I have the mouse connected, and run the command you gave me above, I so get some information - but I cannot copy it anywhere since neither my mouse nor touchpad works
[15:15] <Eltu> *do get
[15:15] <CenoNode> hey guys
[15:15] <CenoNode> is it just me, or the latest firefox update left it unstartable?
[15:16] <BluesKaj> listrophy, does the install stall or hang at that point , can you proceed ?
[15:16] <BlueEagle> Eltu: If you add >filename.txt after the command (including the >) then the output will be written to that file.
[15:16] <Eltu> Ok.
[15:16] <greenIT> does any1 know how it works to mount a directory with "ecryptfs"?
[15:16] <jvargas> actionParsnip: nothing, it happens randomly when using the system. I disabled acpi already, nothing in log files. how could I diagnose more?
[15:16] <Iulia> hello everybody! I have a question please. Does anybody here has the Creative Sound blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer sound card? Works well on 10.04 ? Thanks
[15:17] <listrophy> BluesKaj: the install hangs at that point, because it's some background process that's running the setup script for the whole computer
[15:17] <CenoNode> Iulia: tried ubuntu forums? google?
[15:17] <Iulia> yes
[15:17] <Iulia> I am on canary islands, idk if that is the reason but dosen't shows up nothing
[15:17] <Iulia> ony a web in spanish and useless
[15:18] <actionParsnip> jvargas: not sure, i'd contribute to taht but though
[15:18] <actionParsnip> Iulia: they can be a pain to get nice
[15:18] <Iulia> Sorry actionParsnip, idk what you mean
[15:18] <CenoNode> Iulia: lol there's no spanish version of the internet, but searching from google.es will show you more results in spanish
[15:19] <actionParsnip> Iulia: they can be painful to get nice, lots of hairpulling and swearing
[15:19] <CenoNode> try the international version (you can switch in the bottom right of the google homepage) or even try www.google.com/linux
[15:19] <ydy> hello every body,yesterday  I install  the xubuntu 10.4 into my computer, but it can't sound
[15:19] <ydy> what could i do ?
[15:19] <Iulia> thanks....
[15:19] <ydy> is there who can give me  a  solution
[15:20] <Iulia> you had sound before, ydy?
[15:20] <BlueEagle> ydy: Well we would have to figure out which sound card you have first. Try the command `lspci -grep|Audio` in a terminal please.
[15:20] <hrrrmmm> google.com/ncr is the correct URL
[15:20] <hrrrmmm> No Country Redirect
[15:20] <BlueEagle> ydy: Make that `lspci |grep Audio` :)
[15:20] <actionParsnip> Iulia: there are guides around. This may also help
[15:20] <actionParsnip> !sound | Iulia
[15:20] <ydy> no,i have never use the xubuntu before ,it is the first time
[15:21] <ydy> thanks Iulia
[15:21] <ydy> thanks ubottu
[15:21] <CenoNode> but really, I'm the only one having problems launching firefox after the last update?
[15:21] <TrXuk> Hi all, quick question, running an 8.10 derivative and due to needed hardware support i've upgraded linux-image packages to 2.6.3x, however, remote netboot clients now cannot mount NFS, saying NFS Over TCP is not available from the host. Could someone point me in the right direction? nfsd.ko and nfs.ko modules are both loaded from the /lib/modules/2.6.3x director
[15:21] <Iulia> No, I had a Sound Blaster before, and older model, now I just got that xfi gamer , so I was asking to know if someone has it, I checked the ALSA web.
[15:22] <Iulia> ydy, you tryed to see if the sound is enabled, and no "mute" enabled?  (I know sounds silly but it happened to me in¡my 1st day with Linux years ago, lol)
[15:22] <xangua> TrXuk: 1. this channel is only for ubuntu support 2. 8.10 is no longer supported
[15:23] <v3nd3tta``> someone got a script to enable wifi stick on a default ubuntu install without starting x?
[15:23] <jk_> TrXuk, when you changed the kernel, did you rebuild all the modules? many of them are quite sensitive to kernel changes and I don't think any will work with a mismatched kernel version...
[15:23] <TrXuk> xangua: How useful, putting redtape around a collective people's open source knowledge can only end badly :P
[15:23] <v3nd3tta``> i mean a init.d srcipt maybe
[15:24] <Eltu> BlueEagle: Ok, I got it - here is the pastebin link: http://pastebin.com/jf0vDgPK
[15:24] <TrXuk> jk_: yes all modules are rebuilt.
[15:24] <TrXuk> Thanks anyway all, i'll ask in a more generic kernel channel
[15:25] <xangua> CenoNode: what update¿ 3.6.10¿ never had any problems with normal updates; or are you using a beta version¿
[15:25] <puwei> hi all, is there any command ,can let me ,send a message to one local net windows pc
[15:25] <BluesKaj> TrXuk, most 8.10 users are discovering the benefits of the new LTS namely Lucid 10.04
[15:26] <CenoNode> xangua: I've running 3.6.9. firefox just dies quietly, even running it from the terminal gives no messages
[15:26] <puwei> and pop a message window for thant winxp user?
[15:26] <CenoNode> I can try updating again if there's a newer version
[15:26] <TrXuk> BluesKaj: I run 10.04/Gentoo/RHEL in a number of places, this is an appliance I am messing with and so cannot update, was really just asking a generic kernel upgrade/NFS issue to see if anyone had come accros it back in the day when they were running 8.10
[15:26] <TrXuk> But thanks :)
[15:27] <BluesKaj> TrXuk, ok :)
[15:27] <BlueEagle> Eltu: Very good. Now I would like to know what syslog sais when you plug in the device.
[15:27] <jk_> CenoNode, 3.6.10 came out in the last couple of days and is in the Lucid repositories. I got it via automatic update and have had no problems at all, but 3.6.9 was also problem free for me.
[15:28] <CenoNode> jk_: I'm updating right now, let's see if it fixes the issue
[15:29] <BlueEagle> Eltu: `tail -f /var/log/messages>syslog.txt` and plug the mouse in and back out TWO TIMES. Press CTRL+C and reboot. Then copy/paste to pastebin.
[15:29] <CenoNode> This firefox thing is happening on both my netbook and my laptop on 10.04, I really thought this would be a common issue
[15:30] <xangua> CenoNode: or maybe an addon you installed in both¿
[15:31] <srini> what does mean dump option in fstab?
[15:31] <BluesKaj> CenoNode, a major FF update came down the pipe during my updates a few days ago , it might fix your issue \
[15:31] <pwh> Please, how do I stop X from trying to load?  I've changed /etc/init.d/rc-sysinit and set default runlevel to 3.  Basically I've restored 10.04 to another PC, without NVIDIA card and need to re-do x, but it keeps trying to load x...I think.  And just cycling the load attemp every 3 seconds.
[15:32] <v3nd3tta``> BluesKaj you know how to auto-embed wifi on a desktop ubuntu install? i want wifi starting without X, that's the biggest matter
[15:34] <foobar_> How can I forward my connection to another machine (where I can login via ssh) which will then give me access to unrestricted internet?
[15:35] <TrXuk> You can use SSH to setup a SOCKS proxy to the machine you are sshing too...
[15:35] <TrXuk> ssh -D 5555<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[15:35] <BluesKaj> v3nd3tta``, I understand your issue , wallet asks for the pw in order to connect each session , it's a pita ,but I haven't bothered trying find the workaround even for X
[15:36] <v3nd3tta``> uhm no
[15:36] <timotei> hi all
[15:36] <timotei> I'
[15:36] <TrXuk> once you log into that SSH session, any browser you point at proxy 'localhost, port 5555' will automatically proxy down the SSH tunnel and out via the SSH server's connection

[15:40] <BluesKaj> v3nd3tta``,  I'm tryng figure out why it's not in the startup, before any desktop is launched , diff NMs for diff desktops , might have something to do with it so consequently wifi doesn't connect until the desktop is

[15:43] <BluesKaj> v3nd3tta``, there's workaround but it's time consuming andthat's to avoid using NM at all, actionParsnip knows a lot about /etc/network/interfaces set up for wifi .
[15:43] <TrXuk> timotei: You definatley don't need the www. zone you 'added later'
[15:43] <vadi01> leyus: juct click on hardware drivers
[15:43] <srini> what does mean dump option in fstab?
[15:43] <timotei> TrXuk: ok
[15:43] <histo> !broadcom | leyus
[15:43] <vadi01> leyus: and it will be detected automatically as a 3rd party driver
[15:44] <TrXuk> timotei: as that would define www.www.l2-arora.com
[15:44] <timotei> oh
[15:44] <actionParsnip> v3nd3tta``: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/
[15:44] <titusg> huh, restarting for the nth time got me past that screen -- must have a dodgy cd drive
[15:44] <leyus> no propprietary drivers are in use on this system
[15:44] <leyus> also wifi card seems to be installed just fine
[15:44] <TrXuk> timotei: are you sure lookups are definatley hitting your DNS server, and not being handled by your registrar etc?
[15:44] <timotei> hm
[15:44] <histo> leyus: hold up let me check something
[15:45] <weez^> wat's the latest linux-image?
[15:45] <listrophy> simple question: where are the .deb files and/or apt-get cache stored?
[15:45] <histo> leyus: i'm pretty sure the 440x is ethernet not wireless
[15:45] <timotei> TrXuk: I don't know much stuff about this. Where should I check?
[15:45] <ikonia> !info linux-image
[15:45] <timotei> TrXuk: the registrat told me: add a 'virtual/nonexistent'nameserver name, and assign those ips
[15:46] <konobi1234> 2.6.32-24-generic
[15:47] <WXZ> hey ubuntu
[15:47] <Habs> Hey, is there a way to make native Ubuntu games run in a window rather than running in full screen if there is no in game setting to do so?
[15:47] <WXZ> can you display two diff. workspaces if you have dual monitors?
[15:47] <timotei> TrXuk: how can I check?
[15:49] <TrXuk> timotei: you can use whois to see which nameservers your domain is pointing at
[15:49] <Eltu> 16:29:18 <BlueEagle> Eltu: `tail -f /var/log/messages>syslog.txt` and plug the mouse in and back out TWO TIMES. Press CTRL+C and reboot. Then copy/paste to pastebin.
[15:49] <Eltu> Ok, I did that. I have a /var/log/messages file - should I copy that entire content to pastebin?
[15:50] <TrXuk> whois <domain name>
[15:51] <BlueEagle> Eltu: No, I do not want the entire /var/log/messages file. I want the file syslog.txt that the above command should have produced.
[15:51] <timotei> TrXuk: hmm, In the registrat cp, I've set 2 nameservers, but here in ubuntu configured just one. might that me the problem?
[15:51] <weez^> sudo apt-get install linux-image-<IP_ADDRESS>.25 <- -- is this the right command?
[15:51] <Eltu> Where is this syslog.txt file, BlueEagle?
[15:51] <BlueEagle> Eltu: It is in the directory from where you invoked the command.
[15:51]  * etheretic lugs in a huge sign reading "IOWAIT GURU PLEASE RESPOND!!!"
[15:51] <TrXuk> or 'dig ns domain-name.com' on linux will query the DNS system for that domain name's NS (nameserver records)
[15:52] <jan__> hello guys, where I can change brightness applet settings?
[15:52] <TrXuk> timotei: how long ago did you set up the domain and point your CP to your nameservers IP?
[15:52] <Eltu> In other words, it's /var/log/syslog ?
[15:52] <timotei> TrXuk: that was... 1 or 2 days ago.
[15:52] <timotei> TrXuk: right now, removed the second ns. and let the only one
[15:53] <weez^> i want to update my kernel... is this the right command ? sudo apt-get install linux-image-<IP_ADDRESS>.25
[15:53] <BlueEagle> Eltu: I do not know where you were when you executed the command and plugged/unplugged the mouse. I am assuming your home directory though.
[15:53] <TrXuk> ns1.l2-arora.com
[15:53] <ikonia> weez^: just sudo apt-get upgrade will update all existing packages
[15:53] <Eltu> Ohh, I see now, BlueEagle - pasting pastebin now
[15:53] <TrXuk> did you have to give the CP the IP address for the nameserver?
[15:53] <ikonia> weez^: if there are updates available the package manager will offer them to you
[15:53] <timotei> TrXuk: yes
[15:53] <lubun2> weez^, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[15:53] <v3nd3tta``> weez^ if you want a general update, so sudo apt-get update
[15:53] <jan__> some one?
[15:53] <v3nd3tta``> lubun2 why even dist-upgrade? update is enough
[15:54] <timotei> TrXuk: the cp says: Please insert the nameservers that your webhosting company provided you. If you wish to create your own nameservers, insert them at the following fields and click 'Continue'. At the next page you will be asked to insert the nameservers IPs
[15:54] <lubun2> v3nd3tta``, update only updates the index file
[15:54] <timotei> TrXuk: so, i've created my 'own nameserver, and inserted the ip
[15:55] <TrXuk> timotei: is the nameserver on the same IP as your webserver? IE, the IP listed in the DNS zone?
[15:55] <Eltu> BlueEagle: Here is the log: http://pastebin.com/qBu69s8S
[15:56] <timotei> TrXuk: well, the IP is the one of the vps's
[15:56] <lubun2> v3nd3tta``, you update to refresh what's new and then dist-upgrade to upgrade
[15:58] <TrXuk> you can manually test wether your DNS server is reponding correctly by sending a query directly to it from linux
[15:58] <v3nd3tta``> BluseKaj i don't find anything usable at that site...
[15:58] <TrXuk> ie 'dig A www.arora-l2.com @IP.ADDR.OF.YOUR.DNS.SERVER;
[15:58] <TrXuk> *without the ; at the end
[15:59] <histo> TrXuk: dig
[15:59] <timotei>  ok, I'll try
[15:59] <histo> TrXuk: sry thought you were asking don't mind me
[16:00] <TrXuk> histo: sorry, forgot to put name at the beginning of the line :P
[16:00] <neriukas> i'm trying install microsoft visual c++ 2008 :D it's downlloading but it had one bug :D i corrected it :D
[16:00] <timotei> neriukas: what bug?
[16:00] <timotei> lol
[16:01] <v3nd3tta``> timotei it's microsoft so forget it :P
[16:01] <timotei> the vps doesn't have dig
[16:01] <timotei> and apt-get install dig doesn't work
[16:01] <timotei> :|
[16:01] <timotei> TrXuk: ^
[16:01] <histo> timotei: dig should be installed
[16:01] <TrXuk> timotei: I have just run a DNS report against l2-arora.com, it seems the control panel settings you have entered are fine... the problem lies with your DNS server not responding to ANY queries
[16:01] <timotei> TrXuk: ops
[16:01] <neriukas> then i install it couldn't make copy of $shtdwn$ i did copy myself and installation was start :D
[16:01] <timotei> TrXuk: I've just followed a... tutorial
[16:01] <TrXuk> timotei: This could be because 1. Bind 9 isnt running 2. You have a firewall blocking UDP port 53
[16:02] <timotei> TrXuk: yesterday it worked:-?
[16:02] <timotei> one sec
[16:02] <daniel_b_> hi! i installed and configured openvpn. Everything is fine except autostarting the server in daemon mode "/etc/init.d/openvpn start" fails.
[16:02] <daniel_b_>  * Starting virtual private network daemon(s)...                                 *   Autostarting VPN 'server'                                           [fail]
[16:02] <TrXuk> timotei: 3. your VPS provider is blocking UDP port 53
[16:02] <timotei> lol
[16:02] <TrXuk> timotei: Thats now working, what have you changed :)??
[16:02] <timotei> it works
[16:02] <timotei> I started bind
[16:02] <timotei> wtf?
[16:02] <FloodBot2> timotei: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:03] <neriukas> so i'm waiting to install files are downloading now :D
[16:03] <timotei> FloodBot2: I'm not flooding ;)
[16:03] <etheretic> repost: I'm plagued with iowait paralysing my system/cpu, especially when firefox/oolite/amule are running. using iotop, I get the error "CONFIG_TASK_DELAY_ACCT not enabled in kernel, cannot determine SWAPIN and IO %", making the cause hard to analyse. Is it a hdparm issue? Enlightened minds, please respond. :-)
[16:03] <TrXuk> timotei: That explains why your DNS server was not responding ;)
[16:03] <TrXuk> timotei: www.l2-arora.com is now replying with the correct IP address
[16:03] <timotei> but something is weird. I've added the www stuff, then restarted it. I didn't indented to stop it:D
[16:03] <Eltu> BlueEagle: What do you get out of those log files? (sorry if you are busy, I'll wait. ;))
[16:03] <timotei> TrXuk: ok. thansk:D
[16:03] <BlueEagle> Eltu: Sorry man. I'm lost as to what may cause this. I do see several USB disconnect events when you plug it in the first time, but I am not sure how to proceed troubleshooting this.
[16:04] <Eltu> Ah.
[16:04] <timotei> TrXuk: do you know how I can make bind run at machine start?
[16:04] <Eltu> It works with some other usb mice, so I guess I'll just buy a new mouse
[16:04] <Eltu> (and throw away the one I just bought :( )
[16:05] <bt4> hellp
[16:05] <bt4> hello :)
[16:05] <|Gaijin|> is there a reason why cairo is lagging alot?
[16:05] <ibrahim-kasem> bt4: hello
[16:05] <bodwick> is it just me or any of you had hardware issues when using 2.4.32-24 from repo?
[16:05] <zaidaus> cairo
[16:05] <xbonesx> I burned my copy of 10.04 to dvd and now i cant access the cd for synaptic package manager, how can i make synaptic look inside of the dvd for packages?
[16:05] <BlueEagle> Eltu: You may try to `cat /dev/input/by-path/pci-0000:00:1d.1-usb-0:1:1.0-event-mouse` and move the mouse around and see if it produces any output (ie. it is not the input that is broken but the way the input is handled)
[16:06] <_Trullo> xbones, it's in the config file
[16:06] <xbonesx> _Trullo: where would the synaptic package managers config file be?
[16:06] <Eltu> BlueEagle: I tried using the mouse on other computers, too. I tried it on a windows computer - everything worked. I tried it on another Ubuntu computer - got the exact same problem.
[16:06] <TrXuk> timotei: you'll want to look at update-rc.d
[16:07] <neriukas> i had beed installed to wine dev c++ and pulles c compilers :D all works
[16:07] <BlueEagle> Eltu: Well it is a "Gaming mouse 1600" and google doesn't have much info on those.
[16:07] <_Trullo> don't remember, but it's where you add packages you want to update, looking for dvd is in there, just remove the line
[16:07] <TrXuk> 'man update-rc.d' for the help pages
[16:07] <TrXuk> timotei: for future reference, this site reports on where your DNS is going wrong: http://www.intodns.com/

[16:08] <drecute> after the first screen, i get this: ubuntu unable to find a medium containing a live file system
[16:08] <drecute> any ideas please
[16:08] <puwei> how can i ban other LAN computer  ping my pc?
[16:08] <drecute> ubuntu version is 10.04
[16:08] <timotei21> TrXuk: did you said anything? my iRc crashed
[16:09] <TrXuk> TrXuk: timotei: for future reference, this site reports on where your DNS is going wrong: http://www.intodns.com/
[16:09] <xbonesx> _Trullo: ty
[16:09] <fordfasterr> my system gives this error: http://pastebin.com/LXebjHJS when I try to enable users and groups.
[16:09] <TrXuk> timotei21: and you need to look at update-rc.d for your startup needs
[16:09] <drecute> anybody pls
[16:09] <puwei> or fake than computer ,when they scan the all LAN ,i want my computer don't reply it
[16:09] <timotei21> TrXuk: ok. Thank you so much ;)

[16:11] <alaing> how do i add synapatic package manager to my gnome-desktop environment
[16:11] <TrXuk> puwei: you can set up a firewall (such as IPTables) to drop inbound ICMP echo requests (ping requests).
[16:11] <alaing> for my server edition?
[16:11] <xbonesx> _Trullo: doesnt exist?
[16:11] <Kage> How do I change my default sound card?
[16:11] <puwei> TrXuk    great idear thank you
[16:11] <TrXuk> puwei: but if someone is on the same physical network as you (such as an office network/home network all on the same network switch) people will always be able to see if your host is there due to ARP traffic
[16:12] <xbonesx> _Trullo: did you mean, '/etc/apt/sources.list' ???
[16:12] <BluesKaj> v3nd3tta``, check this site for shell scripting , http://bash.cyberciti.biz/guide/Main_Page
[16:12] <_Trullo> xbonesx, it's in /etc/apt/sources.list
[16:12] <_Trullo> yes
[16:12] <xbonesx> ok lol
[16:12] <_Trullo> had to google and took first hit from 2002 apparently
[16:12] <xbonesx> has anyone in got flashfxp to work, or have a recommended FTP program???
[16:12] <v3nd3tta``> Chapter 1: What is a Linux? ahahaha
[16:12] <puwei> no problem, they just nobe, even don't know ARP  :)
[16:12] <v3nd3tta``> uhm xbonesx
[16:12] <theoros> if i install 10.10 beta, will any fixes between now and the public release be brought into effect as part of an update? since there's a freeze now on basically everything, i would suspect this is the case. i am happy to do a fresh reinstall when the actual public release is made, if this would have any beneficial effect
[16:13] <v3nd3tta``> every flebrowser should do that
[16:13] <drecute> i am seeing after the first screen: ubuntu unable to find a medium containing a live file system

[16:14] <alaing> with my server edition how do I setup my network connection(wifi) so it connects on bootup and rreconnects if the conneciton is lost.
[16:14] <jan__> guys where I can found the gnome applet brightness configuration
[16:14] <conb123>  Anyone else having trouble with fglrx in 2.6.32-24? I get this when trying to install http://pastebin.com/vu7AFMB9 this is my make.log http://pastebin.com/fnMVvdh2
[16:15] <drecute> after the first screen, i get this: ubuntu unable to find a medium containing a live file system
[16:15] <drecute> first installation
[16:16] <ikonia> drecute: you are not installing from a CD ?
[16:18] <Eltu> BlueEagle: kept testing some things, I noticed some interesting stuff. First off - when everything hangs, if I press the little red button that is present on the mouse (which I have no idea what it does) - it unfreezes for a while, for some reason.
[16:18] <Eltu> Second, I noticed my mouse sensitivity was set to 0 in the mouse options dialog
[16:18] <Eltu> I tried to increase it a little, and it seems to have had a positive effect
[16:18] <geoffmcc> 2 computers A & B, both w/ ssh. Router forwards ssh port to Computer A. Is it safe to assume only way to reach Computer B from internet is threw A?
[16:19] <alaing> with my server edition how do I setup my network connection(wifi) so it connects on bootup and rreconnects if the connection is lost.
[16:20] <ikonia> geoffmcc: depends on your router configuration
[16:20] <TrXuk> geoffmcc: providing you have NAT/Stateful firewalling on your router, pretty much yes
[16:20] <ikonia> aarcane: why are you using server edition if you want desktop wirless functionality ?
[16:20] <drecute> after the first screen of installing ubuntu from a USB syick, i get this: ubuntu unable to find a medium containing a live file system
[16:20] <BlueEagle> Eltu: This is not a wireless mouse, is it?
[16:20] <ikonia> drecute: are you not installing from a CD ?
[16:20] <aarcane> ikonia, I'm not?
[16:20] <Eltu> BlueEagle: no, it is a wired mouse.
[16:20] <Eltu> Oh, now I see
[16:20] <ikonia> aarcane: you said you where using server edition
[16:21] <ikonia> aarcane: ahhh sorry, not you
[16:21] <BlueEagle> Eltu: The "little red button" could it be a sensitivit adjuster?
[16:21] <Eltu> I checked on the internet, and apparently the little red button switches DPI
[16:21] <ikonia> alaing: I suggest you use the desktop version of ubuntu to make wirless networking simple
[16:21] <ikonia> aarcane: apologies
[16:21] <aarcane> ikonia, aah, no problem :)
[16:21] <geoffmcc> TrXuk: ok, thank you
[16:22] <BlueEagle> Eltu: Try staring xev from a terminal emulator and move the mouse into the white window. There press the DPI-adjuster and see which events it throws out. Then it is just a matter of finding out where these events are caught and do something useful with them.
[16:22] <Eltu> Terminal *emulator*?
[16:23] <Somelauw> Is there a cool command which tells me about my processor, clock speed and whatever?
[16:23] <BlueEagle> Eltu: That is any terminal window in X (ie. do not press CTRL+ALT+F1 and use one of those terminals.
[16:23] <Roasted> is there any way to stop video tearing? Been 5 years on hoping for a fix. Ru nning nvidia - still got it with vsync changed and compiz off.
[16:23] <ikonia> Somelauw: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[16:23] <aarcane> Somelauw, cat /proc/cpuinfo
[16:23] <aarcane> ikonia, jynx
[16:24] <Gnea> on irc, it is never a jynx :)
[16:24] <Guest94655> How difficult is it to set up my server to work as a DNS intermediary, allowing my to forward any requests directly routed to me to a new DNS, and then allow me to make exceptions?
[16:24] <ikonia> Guest94655: why would you want to do that ?
[16:25] <ikonia> StSapphire: it would be more sensible to just use your IPS's dns servers
[16:25] <ikonia> ISP's even
[16:25] <Eltu> BlueEagle: Ah.
[16:25] <Gnea> Guest37232: extremely
[16:25] <StSapphire> ikonia: It's a bit of an obscure use, but I've got a DS game that attempts to connect to Nintendo's servers. I'm writing a program on my server to emulate theirs, allowing people to point their DNS to my server and then interact with my code instead of Nintendo's.
[16:25] <Roasted> is there any way to stop video tearing? Been 5 years on hoping for a fix. Ru nning nvidia - still got it with vsync changed and compiz off.
[16:25] <aarcane> StSapphire, it's simple to have absolute control over your own domain, or to have pure proxy with no local data, but mixing your own data + default data for a single domain is difficult.
[16:26] <ikonia> StSapphire: just setup a local hostfile route for that
[16:26] <ikonia> StSapphire: using a dns solution for that is a massive overkill
[16:26] <Gnea> Roasted: video tearing?
[16:26] <etheretic> Does anyone know how to resolve IOWAIT issues?
[16:27] <StSapphire> ikonia: hostfile would redirect anyone directing their DNS requests to my server to the correct IP?
[16:27] <ikonia> etheretic: can depend on many reasons
[16:27] <aarcane> Roasted, I have no video tearing with nvidia graphics, try turning on vdpau and forcing vsync at every level ylou can (including exporting it in the environment variables)
[16:27] <carmela> raga ce qualcuno che mi puo aiutare per un dilemma sul mio pc
[16:27] <carmela> '??
[16:27] <ikonia> StSapphire: that's their dns that does that, you can only control your own dns
[16:27] <Roasted> aarcane, where is the vdpau setting at?
[16:27] <aarcane> ikonia, actually, a hosts file doesn't work because the DS can't have a hosts file
[16:27] <carmela> italiani??
[16:27] <StSapphire> ikonia: For the solution to work, I have to be able to set the DNS on a Nintendo DS device to point to my server.
[16:27] <aarcane> Roasted, I've given you enough to google a solution.
[16:27] <ikonia> aarcane: no, but the dns server it's using (your server) can map with a host file
[16:27] <etheretic> ikonia: I know - been searching web b4 coming here. No hitssoutions applied.
[16:27] <aarcane> ikonia, true
[16:27] <Roasted> aarcane, wow. I thought this was a support channel? are you serious?
[16:28] <Gnea> Roasted: no need for that.
[16:28] <TrXuk> does anyone remember the default NFS version for 8.10?
[16:28] <Roasted> Gnea, need for what?
[16:28] <aarcane> Roasted, there's a freaking wiki page that tells you exactly what you need to know, I'm not going to go read you the wiki page over IRC.
[16:28] <Gnea> !attitude
[16:28] <Roasted> aarcane, thanks for your help. I'll wait for someone else to chime in.
[16:28] <Roasted> Gnea, please bring that to aarcane's attention.
[16:28] <Roasted> thank you!
[16:28] <Gnea> Roasted: I'm sure he saw it.
[16:28] <andybe> does anyone use ati graficcard
[16:29] <Roasted> let's hope.
[16:29] <Gnea> let's hope you're beyond it.
[16:29] <Avasz> does xubuntu really run faster than ubuntu in old pcs?
[16:29] <Roasted> looks like somebody out there should be taking a quick scan over their own advice
[16:29] <StSapphire> ikonia: So, if I have my local machine's host file to <IP_ADDRESS> except for 2-3 domain names which instead are routed to localhost, then if someone points their DNS to my IP, and makes a call, my machine will resolve that for them properly?
[16:29] <Kage> How do I change my default sound card?
[16:29] <Hald> anyone know if/how I can remove the first partition on sda and add it to '/' and '/home' partition?
[16:30] <Gnea> Avasz: a bit, but opengeo might do a bit better on 486's
[16:30] <andybe> Avasz: need less memory, but faster ist the wrong word.
[16:30] <aarcane> ikonia, StSapphire add a hosts file on the ROUTER, and dnsmasq, if properly configured, can use it to override individual entries, IE for the DS game.
[16:30] <Avasz> !opengeo
[16:30] <StSapphire> aarcane: And that will work for people outside of my router pointing to my IP?
[16:30] <etheretic> ikonia: could it have something to do with the kernel lacking support for iotop requirements?
[16:31] <ryanjamieson> Hey all - I've got an issue with my sound - Ubuntu is using the intel module by default when it should be using the VIA module.  How do I change it?
[16:31] <Avasz> andybe, what about in pc with 600 MHz and 300 mb ram.. what do you recommend? ubuntu or xubuntu?
[16:31] <Out`Of`Control> Hi, What is the bext VM with python/apache support?
[16:31] <Dr_Willis> Avasz:  perhaps Lubuntu
[16:31] <Gnea> Avasz: sorry, opengeu - http://opengeu.intilinux.com
[16:31] <ryanjamieson> Avasz, xubuntu all the way
[16:31] <Gnea> Avasz: it's not official, but it's there
[16:31] <aarcane> StSapphire, no, it'll work for you to test, and anyone else wanting to use your private server will have to install similar hacks.  However, if you could just push whatever information you wanted into global DNS, there would be a whole host of other issues.
[16:31] <ryanjamieson> Avasz, but with those specs, you might as well just forget a gui
[16:32] <ryanjamieson> unless you went with fluxbox
[16:32] <Avasz> Gnea, ok tks. I will take a look.
[16:32] <Avasz> ryanjamieson, why? is it so bad?
[16:32] <Out`Of`Control> Or i need to ask in other channel?
[16:33] <Gnea> ryanjamieson: those aren't horrible specs, even E17 wouldn't have a problem on it
[16:33] <ryanjamieson> Avasz, you just don't have a lot of horsepower. Xfce is light, but there's always a lower limit.
[16:33] <drecute> ikonia: i dont know why the computer refused to boot from cd
[16:33] <aarcane> StSapphire, for people outside your network to be able to use it, you have to configure port forwarding for all the relavent ports to your server (or run the server on your router -- bad idea) and publish the information people need to find it.
[16:33] <joeyeye> msg h auth joeyeye agrajag1
[16:33] <drecute> so i had to use unetbootin
[16:33] <ryanjamieson> Well, give it a whirl. :) It's only an install.  You can switch later.
[16:33] <Gnea> consider the fact that even windows 98 and XP ran on such specs at one point
[16:33] <Avasz> ryanjamieson, yes you are correct. It stucks many times.
[16:33] <ryanjamieson> Gnea, true
[16:33] <Avasz> Gnea, yes. I have two harddisk.. one with xp sp1.
[16:34] <Gnea> I mean, heh, are you going to let those OS's trump Ubuntu? :)
[16:34] <ryanjamieson> Gnea, but we were more patient then, too. ;)
[16:34] <Avasz> no way
[16:34] <JamaKris> Need help mounting a usb external ntfs hdd w/ 3 partitions on ubuntu ... it says not authorized when i plug up to laptop
[16:34] <drecute> ikonia: which copied the files properly. But during installation i'm getting: ubuntu unable to find a medium containing a live file system
[16:34] <Gnea> ryanjamieson: that patience requires renewal ;)
[16:34] <alaing> ikonia i have installed the gnome-desktop on my server edition
[16:34] <JamaKris> can someone help me
[16:34] <aarcane> Avasz, if ubuntu doesn't run well enough, a graphics card would take alot of the load of a gui off the CPU.  failing that, ubuntu is fast and light even on a 200mhz system I have running
[16:35] <aarcane> Avasz, s/ubuntu/debian/.
[16:35] <Gnea> !ntfs
[16:35] <StSapphire> aarcane: Well, my server is on a dmz, so all ports are forwarded. It essentially boils down to the fact that the average age of my users will be around 13 - it's easy to show them how to change the DNS server on their DS. Not so easy to show them how to modify their own server to work just on their system
[16:35] <xbonesx> is the contents of the live cd's '/etc/apt/sources.list' file the same as the installed version of ubuntu 10.04???
[16:35] <Avasz> aarcane, you are running ubuntu in 200 mhz system?
[16:35] <aarcane> Avasz, no, debian.  it was a typo.
[16:36] <StSapphire> So while running my own DNS daemon might be overkill, I imagine it would be the simplest solution for myself and my users.
[16:36] <aarcane> StSapphire, I'd suggest using dnsmasq with a hosts file then, as bind is quite a bit more...  work.
[16:36] <xbonesx> I need to know cuz i somehow deleted the contents of my '/etc/apt/sources.list' file... :(
[16:37] <StSapphire> aarcane: Okay, I'll take a look at that, thanks :)
[16:39] <alaing> with my server edition how do I setup my network connection(wifi) so it connects on bootup and rreconnects if the connection is lost.

[16:40] <JamaKris> !ntfs-3g
[16:41] <SeaOrifice> My laptop uses  Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Desktop Edition and I have these questions : 1) I had seen an application which on every keystroke displays ascii value of it and some more information about it . I need to know its name 2) I am doubtful about the version i am using , my processor is 64 bit but gnome system manager displays only 2.96gb than 4gb of mine
[16:41] <aarcane> alaing, I know a few not-very-ubuntu options, if noone in #ubuntu-server can help you, I'd be willing to tip you off to my uncosher methods.
[16:41] <actionParsnip> SeaOrifice: xev for number 1
[16:41] <BSODOfThePast> Did Canonical fixed random freezes yet in 10.04?
[16:41] <BSODOfThePast> it has to do with the latest kernel i think
[16:41] <actionParsnip> SeaOrifice: uname -a   wil show the arch of the Ubuntu
[16:41] <zhionofjulian> any body know how to get free cd ubuntu?
[16:41] <actionParsnip> SeaOrifice: i686 = 32bit, x86_64 = 64bit

[16:42] <hoare> hi guys. I am having problems with VIM on Ubuntu. I press "i" to get in INSERT MODE. however when I press lets say up-arrow I get "A" on the new line ....
[16:42] <aarcane> SeaOrifice, you can either use 64 bit ununtu, or you can install a "pae" kernel, if you run aptitude search pae you'll find the right kernel
[16:42] <zhionofjulian> ubuntu said that i have too many request
[16:42] <zhionofjulian> i only get 3 cd before
[16:43] <IdleOne> zhionofjulian: download and burn your own
[16:43] <hoare> ^ I've a vim problem
[16:43] <SeaOrifice> got it actionParsnip , thanks
[16:43] <aarcane> hoare, which flavor of vim did you install ?
[16:43] <zhionofjulian> but i need the last version of ubuntu
[16:43] <SeaOrifice> aarcane: I would prefer changing to 64bit one, :)
[16:43] <Dr_Willis> hoare:  install the vim-full package..
[16:43] <hoare> Dr_Willis: ok
[16:43] <neriukas> i686=32 intel x86-64 = 32/64 bit intell amd
[16:43] <Dr_Willis> hoare:  or 'vim' instead of the vim-tiny thats teh default
[16:43] <hoare> hmm there is no vim-full in my repos
[16:44] <xbonesx> can anyone confirm whether the contents of the '/etc/apt/sources.list' on the LIVE CD is the same as the fresh installed '/etc/apt/sources.list' file???
[16:44] <aarcane> SeaOrifice, well, that's easy.  back up your install (tar, dd, scp, etc.), then download, burn, install the 64 bit ISO, and then restore such stuff as your home directory and use the logs to determine which packages to reinstal.
[16:44] <Dr_Willis> hoare:  the default is a limited version of vim. install the otehr bigger versions - whatever its called
[16:44] <hoare> Dr_Willis: I see
[16:44] <alaing> how do i add synapatic package manager to my gnome-desktop environment

[16:54] <Dr_Willis> JamaKris:  use the package manager, then run it from the terminal. gksudo ntfs-config
[16:54] <shcherbak> how do i scroll in screen?
[16:55] <Dr_Willis> JamaKris:  odd that its not asking for your users password when accessing the ntfs parittions from the places/computer menu..
[16:55] <Dr_Willis> JamaKris:  i thought that was the default bahavior
[16:55] <madjoe> nautilus-image-converter

[16:57] <sammy> I have a vfat volume that mounts automagically in ubuntu, and I'd like to set the uid and gid and umask for the mount. I found docs that pointed me to gconf, but those entries seem to be depreciated? at least, the ones I added aren't being recognized. how do I define the mount options for automagically mounted hal volumes?
[16:57] <Habs> Hello, I'm running out of HD space on my Ubuntu 10.04 partitioned with Wubi, and I'm a complete Ubuntu Noob. How would go about editing the size of my Ubuntu partition?
[16:57] <zhionofjulian> dr_willis ok
[16:57] <Dr_Willis> sammy:  if its an internal drive. you could just make a fstab entry for it.. actually you could make one for it if its external also.
[16:57] <sammy> Habs: gparted works well.
[16:58] <Dr_Willis> I dont think gparted can resize a 'wubi' install
[16:58] <sammy> Dr_Willis: I know, there's fstab, but hal is mounting the volume, and I should be able to tell hal who to mount the drive as
[16:58] <collabra> xbonesx: you need to be root....something like this: sudo pico /etc/apt/sources.list      ........ then cut and paste
[16:59] <actionParsnip> xbonesx: no, the file is a simple text file, not to be made executable
[16:59] <Dr_Willis> sammy:   thers been so many changes to hal and so on.. and they keep getting replaced.. Im not even sure HAL is used in 10.04 any more
[16:59] <Dr_Willis> !hal
[16:59] <collabra> xbonesx: <ctrl> X   <------ to save and exit
[16:59] <Dr_Willis> sammy:  i forget what the replacement to hal is called.. udev perhaps?
[16:59] <sammy> Dr_Willis: does wubi only create installs within the windows partition? in that case, he'd have to use something to resize the image file that's getting mounted
[16:59] <Dr_Willis> sammy:  i dont use wubi.. but i think thats how it works..
[17:00] <StSapphire> Is there a way to see if my computer's bluetooth receiver is turned on?
[17:00] <xbonesx> collabra: im familiar with "vi" been using that so that is what i used and it worked
[17:00] <sammy> Dr_Willis: udev, yeah, maybe udev is doing the mounting. I'll dig a bit deeper. I know I can set a fstab entry for the volume, but I wanted to do it the RightWay, if there was one. seems like other people should be running into vfat volumes being automagicallyl mounted with only a single user's ownership.
[17:00] <collabra> xbonesx: right on.... :)
[17:01] <Habs> sammy, I have gparted and I'm looking at it right now, and I have one "unallocated" with no label, one "/dev/sda1" with a label of "SYSTEM_DRV", one "/dev/sda2" label "Windows7_OS" and one "/dev/sda3" label "Lenovo_Recovery".

[17:01] <sammy> Habs: sorry, I misspoke. wubi doesn't mess with your partition table by default, it creates a giant image file in your windows partition, and mounts that image as a volume
[17:02] <shcherbak> Habs Start from formating sda2
[17:02] <shcherbak> Habs best you can do
[17:02] <sammy> Habs: you'll have to resize that image file, and the partition within it. I think there are some docs about how to do that, lemme look
[17:02] <Habs> @sammy, oh. Thanks ahead of time.

[17:06] <sammy> Habs: looks like your best bet is to either migrate your wubi install to a full install (with its own partition(s) on the hard drive) or break off your /home (if its large enough to make a difference) into a separate virtual disk with more space, freeing up the space in your root partition.

[17:15] <actionParsnip> Ubuwhat: did the iscan packages not make it fly?
[17:15] <xbonesx> actionParsnip: should there be a file called 'sources.list.save' in that DIR?
[17:15] <xander_> fusionx im no xorg expert and not much experince with wubi but when i was trying to get current ati driver to work a couple of time i just removed xorg.conf and let it reconfigure its self (but thats not a fix just a guess)
[17:16] <linziyan> collabra:   to  tell  the  truth, i  just   a  try  that  if  one  of  chinese experts  is  here....
[17:16] <preecher> it tells me upgrade not found
[17:16] <FusionX> xander_ ok i will try, but can u explain me how to do it? pm?

[17:17] <fedora_newb> why is it that webpages are displayed different in linux firefox than windows firefox? Shouldn't they be the same?
[17:17] <xbonesx> actionParsnip: is the content of the sources.list.save file the same as the sources.list???
[17:17] <EvilPhoenix> fedora_newb:  no they shouldnt.  its the same as asking why something shows up different in internet explorer than it does in firefox
[17:18] <arosen1> actionParsnip: how do I enable the universe repo? It says that in 9.04+ they are enabled by default though I still don't see that java package ?

[17:18] <EvilPhoenix> fedora_newb:  some pages are configured for certain operating systems...
[17:18] <collabra> xbonesx: that's there because you edited the sources.list, i think. it saved the original as sources.list.save
[17:18] <fedora_newb> EvilPhoenix, are they not the same build?
[17:18] <xander_> i would goto etc/X11/  find xorg.conf delete it but like i said thats not a fix just a guess it allowed me to get back to X so icould try agian
[17:18] <EvilPhoenix> fedora_newb:  and part of the version response for HTTP things is your OS.
[17:18] <EvilPhoenix> fedora_newb:  read up
[17:18] <xbonesx> collabra: so just delete it?

[17:32] <Maletor> How can I join two different LANS?
[17:32] <drecute> !exe
[17:32] <Scottie1> I've burned Ubuntu desktop to about seven different CDs, and none of them will install. I've downloaded from two different PCs, from three separate downloads. I'm trying to install on a Toshiba Satellite L355D-S7825
[17:33] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  make a bootable flash drive from the iso files perhaps?
[17:33] <drecute> !usbstick
[17:33] <weez^> !bitchX
[17:33] <Scottie1> All of the trials work fine, but when I go to install, I always get an error (at different parts of the download) saying that my harddisk is bad...but it's hard to believe that they're all bad
[17:33] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  do the cd's work on other machines?
[17:33] <greencup> xander: sql attacks are not an option, ssh and ftp are my best shot
[17:33] <actionParsnip> Scottie1: did you MD5 test the ISO files you downloaded?
[17:33] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: I tried, once with an external hd, and again with a regular flash, and the first time it straight up told me I couldn't boot from an hd, and when I tried to boot from my stick, it said I had nothing bootable inserted.
[17:33] <greencup> xander: my thought was, brute force! i kind of know the guy so i tried a generic dictionary and one i made, but its not working
[17:34] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  how did you make the bootable flash drive?
[17:34] <sriramoman> any guys here with toshiba laptops with ubuntu difficulty?
[17:34] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: I don't have the opportunity to find out, because I can't erase the other machines...they aren't mine
[17:34] <JSG> I'm trying to find a Linux equal to OCR a PDF file like ABBY on Windows.
[17:34] <Dr_Willis> sriramoman:  my Toshiba X505 works 100% in ubuntu.
[17:34] <fedora_newb> lol...firefox in wine is faster than stock firefox...who would have guessed that one
[17:34] <Scottie1> actionParsnip: I have no idea what that means.
[17:35] <actionParsnip> !md5 | Scottie1
[17:35] <bibii> Hi ppl!
[17:35] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: I followed the instructions on the website, and even told it to make it a bootable startup whatever
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  you could install to your extranal flash drive/usb as a test also.. but do  check the md5's first
[17:35] <Scottie1> sriramoman: girl, but yes.
[17:35] <wieshka> how can i remove ssh session timeout (for inactivity)
[17:35] <actionParsnip> Scottie1: you have downloaded a very sensitive lump of data over a very unreliable network, didnt you think to check the data was good before using it?
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  also the PenDrivelinux web site has some alteantive tools for making a bootable flash drive.
[17:35] <Herman_Snerd> sriramoman,  I've had similar problems though the optical drive I was trying to use was bad.  But no other boot options worked on the Toshiba I was trying to resurrect.
[17:35] <Scottie1> actionParsnip: ...what?
[17:35] <actionParsnip> wieshka: there may be a setting in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  an addational test is to try virtualbox and see if it can install from the iso to a virutal machine.
[17:36] <Scottie1> actionParsnip: if I knew what that meant, I would. But, again, I don't.
[17:36] <wieshka> actionParsnip: witch one ? :D logingracetime is for login timeout
[17:36] <sriramoman> Scottie1: toshiba works 100% for u?
[17:36] <frex> Hello, I installed libapache-asp-perl, I could not find any example configuration file under /etc/apache2/conf.d
[17:36] <actionParsnip> Scottie1: the ISO you downloaded has traversed the internet and can get damaged in transit. MD5 lets you check the data is good BEFORE you use it so you know any errors you see are not caused by garbled data
[17:36] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: I'm very grateful.
[17:36] <wieshka> how can i specifie for session ?
[17:36] <frex> this is not for apache2?
[17:36] <Scottie1> sriramoman: absolutely not.
[17:36] <actionParsnip> Scottie1: read the factoid ubottu gave too, it explains how to check the data
[17:37] <sriramoman> Scottie1: if u have acpi problems in the toshiba, i am here to guide u:)
[17:37] <Scottie1> :actionParsnip: In the process. I'm grateful, I'm just not sure what you're talking about.
[17:37] <Herman_Snerd> sriramoman, I had to wipe the HDD and create a pair of partitions and make one of them a bootable from a working install of ubuntu.
[17:37] <Scottie1> sriramoman: acpi?
[17:37] <FusionX> How can i recreate and reconfigure xorg.conf in xubuntu 10.04?
[17:38] <Habs> Alright, so I read the links, and from my understanding I just have to make a new partition with GParted, then download wubi-move-to-patition, then run "sudo sh wubi-move-to-partition <current Ubuntu partition here> <Swap (?) goes here>"?
[17:38] <sriramoman> Scottie1: what, in ur ubuntu, does NOT work in the toshiba laptop
[17:38] <actionParsnip> Scottie1: data can be damaged in transit, especially data as sensitive as an OS install media, so you need to check it is ok before continuing
[17:38] <Dr_Willis> Habs:  you proberly want to make a swap partition also.
[17:38] <Scottie1> sriramoman: I cannot get the disks to actually install. They let me trial run, but not install.
[17:38] <Scottie1> actionParsnip: I'm reading the text, but I don't understand it. I've never liked coding.
[17:39] <mdsky> Hey guys
[17:39] <Habs> Dr_Willis: So what exactly is a swap partition?
[17:39] <sriramoman> Scottie1: what errs turn up?
[17:39] <actionParsnip> Scottie1: its not coding at all, if you use windows you right click the iso and click "send to md5sum" after install a program, how is that programming??
[17:39] <Dr_Willis> !swap
[17:39] <bibii> Hi!
[17:39] <sriramoman> bibii: hi!
[17:39] <Dr_Willis> Habs:  its what linux uses instead of a swap file. like windows uses.. see above
[17:39] <Scottie1> sriramoman: the messages are different, but it always results in "this is caused by a faulty harddisk"
[17:40] <NOMADICUS> I can't seem to find an explaniation on how to boot in verbose mode.  Will someone please explain it to me?
[17:40] <Scottie1> actionParsnip: that isn't what the text says
[17:40] <Scottie1> actionParsnip: and I'm in the Ubuntu trial right now, not Windows
[17:40] <collabra> Scottie1: have you tried installing on different machine,.... maybe it's your harddrive
[17:41] <sriramoman> Scottie1: i would recommend u to go for a manual partition setup. there, resize the existing partitions to desired size. Then, install it on a custom sized partition as per ur needs
[17:41] <bibii> What to do?
[17:41] <Scottie1> collabra: I don't have another machine that I can lose data from, so no
[17:41] <cannonfodder> OMG I CANT FIND THE TRASH...I CHECKED 2 GOOGLED LOCATIONS....UBUNTU10.04 NETBOOK REMIX
[17:41] <Habs> Dr_Willis, so how would I go about making this swap partition then? And I've read about http://lubi.sourceforge.net/lvpm.html , can I use that instead?
[17:41] <Scottie1> sriramoman: partitions aren't my thing either. I want a full install.
[17:41] <Dr_Willis> !trash | cannonfodder
[17:41] <sriramoman> Scottie1: an important preliminary question:: Are u installing from the ext-hdd to the SAME hdd?
[17:41] <cannonfodder> why do they keep hiding the trash btw?
[17:41] <mdsky> You can create a file on a existing partition and use it as swap - so you don't have to deal with partitions.
[17:41] <sriramoman> cannonfodder: trash:/// does the trick
[17:41] <bibii> извините за мой англйский
[17:41] <Scottie1> sriramoman: ..what?
[17:42] <cannonfodder> thanks
[17:42] <collabra> !ru | bibii
[17:42] <bibii> sorry for my Flyer
[17:42] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  you do a full/normal isntall via parittions...
[17:42] <drecute> !initramfs
[17:42] <drecute> ok guys
[17:42] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: I don't know what that means.
[17:42] <sriramoman> Scottie1: if u try to install from a source external hard disk to the same external hard disk as destination, its bound to create errors!
[17:42] <drecute> i have at the prompt initramfs
[17:42] <ubuntu> hi
[17:43] <Habs> Sorry, I'm a bit of a newb at this, but what does the "Swap" file/partition do, and why do we need one?
[17:43] <ubuntu> i have a kernel problem
[17:43] <drecute> from here i can enter commands
[17:43] <Scottie1> sriramoman: I really have no idea what you're talking about.
[17:43] <drecute> is it possible to install using the commands
[17:43] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  you may want to read up on some pc/disk fundamentals then.   You normally reparittion your hard drive and isntall ubuntu to one of the partitions. Unless you are using the WUBI method to install INSIDE windwos.
[17:43] <ubuntu> how I'm join to ircubuntu esp
[17:43] <actionParsnip> Scottie1: if you reboot to the cd, when the stickman shows press spacebar and select "Check CD for defects"
[17:43] <JSG> I'm trying to find a Linux equal to OCR a PDF file like ABBY on Windows. I installed gocr but it don't do pdf files.
[17:43] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: but I want FULL Ubuntu...I don't want other partitions
[17:43] <mdsky> @Habs: ubottu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[17:43] <sriramoman> Scottie1: are u installing from an optical medium(CD/DVD), as source medium of ubuntu?
[17:44] <collabra> !es
[17:44] <actionParsnip> Habs: its like the pagefile in windows, although linux doesnt fill your ram with stuff on boot
[17:44] <Scottie1> actionParsnip: Will do. Thank you.
[17:44] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  you are backwards.. a FULL install DOES use partitions..
[17:44] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  is this machine to be Ubuntu Only? or windows on it also?
[17:44] <Scottie1> sriramoman: I've tried several different CDs, an ext hard drive, and a usb
[17:44] <sriramoman> Habs: u may use 220% size as ur RAM for swap
[17:44] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: Then I just purely don't understand.
[17:44] <Habs> Oh, I see. But I think I've confused myself with my own directions... >.<
[17:44] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  yep. You dont understand..  but we are here to help
[17:45] <collabra> !es | ubuntu
[17:45] <sriramoman> Scottie1: does the live environment work or does it stop at boot stage!
[17:45] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: My machine wouldn't let me log on, so I Ubuntu'd over it, and erased my windows. Now it has nothing on it.
[17:45] <grkblood> how do i get udf 2.50 support in cdrecord?
[17:45] <Redhand> well, it worked Feisty Fawn for the win! or against the win' as the case may be
[17:45] <Scottie1> sriramoman: I don't know what 'live environment' is
[17:45] <bjaanes> Having some problems with Rythmbox iPhone. Synced and copied stuff over yesterday - worked just fine. Connecting and trying to copy over a song; Error while getting peer-to-peer dbus connection: The name :1.210 was not provided by any .service files. Tried to delete .gconf/apps/rythmbox - didnt help. Any ideas?
[17:45] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  so basically you start the isntaller and tell it to use the 'whole' disk ?
[17:45] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: It asks what I want. I tell it to erase and use the whole disk.
[17:45] <sriramoman> Scottie1: does the live cd boot in?
[17:46] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  and that automatically PARTIONS the hard disk for you.
[17:46] <Scottie1> sriramoman: The installation starts. Always. It gets to 20 something, 30 something...I've gotten up to 40 something percent. Then it "corrupts"
[17:46] <bibii> i nice your are!!!
[17:46] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  since you dont want windows. that makes things simpiler.
[17:46] <Habs> So, going back to the beginning, Wubi doesn't use partitions, it uses a file, right? So can I just change the size of that file for more HD space? :S
[17:46] <collabra> Scottie1: is this a CD or a USB Drive?
[17:46] <sriramoman> Scottie1: another tip: install it onto some other external hard disk.
[17:46] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: Okay...sorry I made that so difficult. And no, I don't want Windows. I just want my Ubuntu to work. I've used like 7 disks already.
[17:47] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  where is your .iso files you used at now? this PC? eternal hd? another pc?
[17:47] <Scottie1> collabra: I've tried both.
[17:47] <Scottie1> sriramoman: I don't know what that means.
[17:48] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: One on my mom's, one on my friends. None on this one because every time I use it, I have to use Ubuntu trial, so nothing saves.
[17:48] <collabra> Scottie1: I think it's time to buy a hard drive.
[17:48] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  If you have an exteranal usb hard drive, or even a pen/flash drive. You can tell the installer to install to that exteranal device.
[17:48] <Scottie1> collabra: I'm not buying a new hard drive.
[17:48] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  you may want to go to one or more of the other machines and download a MD5 sum tool to check the iso files.
[17:48] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: When I tried to tell the ISO to use the hard drive as a boot option, it wouldn't let me. It said that I would not be able to boot from it.
[17:49] <sriramoman> Scottie1: plug in an external hard disk before starting ubuntu from cd. then start ur ubuntu installation cd. then choose the external disk as the destination for installing the OS. Afterward, boot it from there. u just need a single partition on the external drive, no need of an entire huge drive itself
[17:49] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  Hard drives are the weakest part of a PC these days. they can die and get errors at any time.
[17:49] <sriramoman> Dr_Willis: thats why we have raid:P
[17:49] <Scottie1> sriramoman: what you're telling me to do is what I've already done, I think
[17:49] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: Well buying one really isn't an option
[17:50] <xbonesx> actionParsnip: none of the stuff in this file are showing up in my repositories anymore, i copied the contents from my live cd '/etc/apt/sources.list
[17:50] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  check the md5 of the iso files on the other machines. try the Pendrivelinux web site. their 'pendrive generator' tool can also verify the ISO i think.
[17:50] <sriramoman> Scottie1: i am asking u to choose the external drive as Destination and NOT source, for the ubuntu-installation
[17:50] <collabra> Scottie1: yup,... at ANY time,.... I had to replace a two week old hard drive once.
[17:50] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  you can even isntall to a 8gb flash drive if yu have one. :) as a test.
[17:50] <Scottie1> collabra: that still doesn't help me. I'm not buying a new drive.
[17:50] <aknagi> Hi guys. I'm installing my OS, and I have two 320GB disks, but gparted shows them as 298.09 GiB
[17:50] <wolfbiker> hey guys, i'm getting a connection problem with emesene, it's called Errno 110
[17:50] <aknagi> anyone know why?
[17:50] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: I have one. I tried. My computer refused to boot from it.
[17:50] <wolfbiker> what should i do?
[17:50] <Dr_Willis> aknagi:  marketing terms. and 5% reserved by ext2/3/4
[17:50] <sriramoman> aknagi: thats coz of GB to GiB units conversion
[17:50] <collabra> Scottie1: then partition your drive only to 30 percent
[17:51] <aknagi> Dammit!
[17:51] <xbonesx> actionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=YvhNcmcd
[17:51] <aknagi> Thanks Dr_Willis
[17:51] <Scottie1> collabra: I don't understand partitioning or why I need to do it.
[17:51] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  its possible your hard drive has a bad spot near the middle.
[17:51] <bibii> who likes to foul out Boys?
[17:51] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_partitioning
[17:51] <collabra> Scottie1: obviously you have some bad sectors,.. I might recomend spinrite
[17:51] <actionParsnip> xbonesx: looks line
[17:51] <MaMoUs> Pidgin keep Crashing, Ubuntu 10.04 please help me
[17:52] <xbonesx> actionParsnip: looks (fine)*?
[17:52] <fanti> hello! apt-get doesn't find sun's java6-jdk package after installation from scratch. do i need to add 'nonfree' packages to sources.list or something like that?
[17:52] <actionParsnip> xbonesx: yes, the sources file
[17:52] <bjaanes> Having a somewhat wierd issue. Ubuntu asks for root password when installing stuff from ubuntu software center instead of password for the user logged in (which btw has sudo rights). So installing from command line works just fine. But when Ubuntu need root privileges it asks for root password instead of the user sudo. Whats up with that?
[17:52] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: Could you just tell me straight up what to do? Because stuff like this is meaningless to me.
[17:52] <collabra> Scottie1: not much you can do about bad sectors on a harddrive
[17:52] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  as a dirty work around. they are suggesting you use the 'custome' partioning feature of the installer and make a single parittion at the front of the hard drive of about 20gb or so,
[17:53] <Scottie1> collabra: Dude, okay, I appreciate the effort, but you aren't helping me.
[17:53] <Redhand> hmmm... any old ubuntu distro chatrooms on here./list isn't working for me
[17:53] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  not really. you need to know the basic terms befor  anything we say makes sence..
[17:53] <rasec> hola
[17:53] <actionParsnip> Scottie1: you could research some and learn a little, it will help you GREATLY
[17:53] <aknagi> \
[17:53] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: But, like, I don't know what the sectors mean
[17:53] <rasec> ay  algen
[17:53] <sailerboy> hey, im using supybot, and one of the plugins needs flat as a database
[17:53] <sailerboy> but i cant find it in apt
[17:53] <sailerboy> http://pastebin.com/K7m5mdqC is the specific error
[17:53] <MaMoUs> pidgin Keep Crashing , Segmentation fault, Ubuntu 10.04 help me please
[17:53] <collabra> Scottie1: i apologize.... it's wasn't my intent...
[17:53] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  in short you can try custome partioning layout, and make a 20 gb partiion at the start for '/' and  a 512mb for 'swap' then see if itnstalls.
[17:53] <rasec> de cchile
[17:53] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: I understand most of what you're saying. It is just meaningless to me because I don't know how to apply it.
[17:53] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  but really You SHOULD be checking the cd's for errors also.
[17:54] <Scottie1> collabra: I appreciate it, I do, but you aren't explaining anything you say so it's just frustrating me
[17:54] <sriramoman> aknagi: i can give u the calculation how u get 298. its pure mathematics and not any sector reservation/crap
[17:54] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: I didn't know. I don't know how to do any of this.  Should be stable and fast and have a gui. :) I found these three: VirtualBOX OSE? Qemulator? FAUmachine? Are there other/better ones?
[17:55] <bibii> ubuntu 10.04 - the best distro!
[17:56] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: Which option am I supposed to choose, regarding the install
[17:56] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  custome layout
[17:56] <Scottie1> Okay, I'm there.
[17:56] <Redhand> I assume that wont work on a 400mhz celeron bibii rotflmao (192 megs of ram)
[17:56] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  i dont have the isntaller memoruised.. so you will need to think about what you are doing.
[17:56] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  you basically want to make 2 partitions  first one , ext4, mount point of
[17:56] <MaMoUs> Pidgin Keep Crashing, Segmentation fault
[17:56] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  you basically want to make 2 partitions  first one , ext4, mount point of  '/'    perhaps 20gb in size.
[17:57] <collabra> Scottie1: how big is your harddrive currently?
[17:57] <FusionX> How can i recreate and reconfigure xorg.conf in xubuntu 10.04?
[17:57] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  then make a second one. perhaps 1 gb in size. type is 'swap'
[17:57] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: There's already two there. sda1 and sda5
[17:57] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: 1 is an ext4 and 5 is a swap
[17:57] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  so delete them.  thats what the auto partioning tool setup.
[17:57] <swiftarrow> FusionX: the xorg is auto configured in 10.04, afaik
[17:57] <Scottie1> collabra: 250g
[17:57] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  you want basically the same thing, only smaller...
[17:57] <sriramoman1> Scottie1: ensure ur swap is 220% as big as ur RAM
[17:58] <swiftarrow> FusionX: it doesn't use a xorg.conf, it re-configures every boot
[17:58] <maedox> FusionX, not sure what you want, but you can just delete xorg.conf.
[17:58] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: Okay, now it just says 'free space'
[17:58] <Dr_Willis> sriramoman1:  220% ? where did that come from.
[17:58] <collabra> sriramoman1: i've neve used more than 120 percent myself
[17:58] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  so make a new primary partition, type ext4. mount point /
[17:58]  * swiftarrow things Dr_Willis is awesome for doing this
[17:59] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  make it.. 20gb.
[17:59] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: I click 'new partition table' and nothing happens
[17:59] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  not a new table.. a new partitiion
[17:59] <maedox> sriramoman1, I have 6 GB RAM and no swap space. no way I'm making one 220 % of RAM :P
[17:59] <FusionX> swiftarrow : my display is crashing randomly and i want to know if there's a way to auto reconfigure the whole display configuration. details -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1577543 - can u help me?
[17:59] <sriramoman1> Dr_Willis: 100% for RAM overflow as such, 100% in case of suspend-to-disk. and 2x10% for safety
[17:59] <Dr_Willis> sriramoman1:  rather useless for all of my machines...
[17:59] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: I only have the option to make a new table
[17:59] <collabra> sriramoman1: these machines these days have so much ram, I don't belive i've ever even used my swap
[17:59] <swiftarrow> FusionX: if you have an xorg.conf, delete it, and reboot.  That will re-configure it automatically
[17:59] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: Scratch that. I had the wrong thing highlighted.
I think it is, but not in full force!
[17:59] <FusionX> swiftarrow no i don't
[17:59] <actionParsnip> swiftarrow: renaming is less destructive
[18:00] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  I said you have to think. :) heh
[18:00] <sriramoman1> Dr_Willis: one swap can be used by all ur machines
[18:00] <swiftarrow> FusionX: otherwise, look at your graphics drivers, some cards don't behave very nicely
[18:00] <amer> i need help regarding changing mouse pointers in ubuntu me 10.04
[18:00] <swiftarrow> FusionX, whats your graphics card?
[18:00]  * sriramoman1 runs 9 VM's on his laptop and thus requires 220% sized swap as his 6GB RAM
[18:00] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  so a parimary parittion of about 20gb, ext4, mount point /
[18:00] <FusionX> swiftarrow i didn't had this problem on ubuntu 9.10, intel 82845G
[18:01] <swiftarrow> amer there's many ways to do it.  For starters, go to System > Preferences > Appearace
[18:01] <swiftarrow> and customize the theme
[18:01] <sriramoman1> Scottie1: ensure to check the format
[18:01] <collabra> talk about a learning curve,...
[18:01] <Redhand> hmmm... seriously? well.. I may have to try installing 10.4 then after I learn the basics of ubuntu.. so far 7.04 is treating me quite nicely
[18:01] <actionParsnip> amer: right click desktop -> change wallpaper, leftmost tab, click install then select the archive containing the pointer theme, it will be offered to be enabled too :)
[18:01] <aruljohn> hi any one tell me where keylogger software wil store after download
[18:01] <Redhand> first day granted
[18:01] <Scottie1> sriramoman1: Format?
[18:01] <swiftarrow> FusionX: then I'd suspect the newer drivers for the intel chipset are the problem...
[18:02] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: Done.
[18:02] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: Wait, wait. Beg or end?
[18:02] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  the thing should allready 'format' the ext4 if needed.. you have also made the swap parittion yet? how much ram do you have?
[18:02] <wolfbiker_> hey guys, I keep getting a connection problem with Emesene, it's called Errno 110, how should i fix this?
[18:02] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  may as well use the beginning. :)
[18:02] <FusionX> swiftarrow it's the same driver from the last ubuntu 9.10
[18:02] <swiftarrow> I've had that problem with the 845 before, and it was solved by going back to an older driver... but that was in 9.-4
[18:02] <sailerboy> hey, im getting this error No suitable databases were found.  Suitable databases include flat.
[18:02] <amer> i am using ubuntu sabily os. in that there are special cursors, with arabic script, its not workingo n desktop, but working when a program window is open.
[18:02] <sailerboy> but i cant find flat in ap
[18:02] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: 3g ram, 250g hd
[18:02] <sailerboy> apt
[18:02] <swiftarrow> FusionX: are you sure?  kernel version is also the same?
[18:03] <Redhand> my next project is my little 233mhz laptop though I believe it has 64 megs of ram bwahaha
[18:03] <Scottie1> Dr_Willis: All I've made is the first. Can you repeat the other, please?
[18:03] <Dr_Willis> Scottie1:  so a 1gb swap is proberly plenty. You could make 3gb if you wanted.
[18:03] <FusionX> swiftarrow yes i'm sure
[18:03] <collabra> aggreed
[18:03] <collabra> agreed^
[18:03] <swiftarrow> FusionX: well... this n00b has run out of guesses :)
