[11:15] <JesseT77> zeta: the windows install cd should have a repair option worth trying
[11:15] <slimjimflim> hm
[11:15] <Dracari> has even as old as windows 1 and dos 2.0 on it
[11:15] <hmhowie> though if you concatenated a jpeg with a tar file, would tar -t still see the tar file? let me see...
[11:16] <JesseT77> dos 2.0: now with folders!
[11:16] <Dracari> hell the cvd was well worth 15$
[11:16] <slimjimflim> ...no longer called directories
[11:16] <Dracari> *cd
[11:16] <JesseT77> hmhowie: Tar would be more problematic. It does not read from the end so it would demand to know what the jpeg garbage is all about ;)
[11:17] <Frogzoo> hmhowie: pretty sure the directory listing happens at the beginning (tar files were tape archives once)
[11:17] <JesseT77> o/~ Hello Fred the Beard o/~
[11:18] <hmhowie> JesseT77: tar does indeed complain :)
[11:18] <jaggz1> I'm moving from ubuntu to straight-debian because I want a common base for my personal system and my work servers.
[11:18] <Frogzoo> hmhowie: did tar -t not run?
[11:19] <sams> can we tune up ubuntu for better performence ??
[11:19] <JesseT77> Frogzoo: hmhowie found that "cat picture.jpg archive.tar > combo.tar" does not a valid archive make :)
[11:19] <hmhowie> Frogzoo: it just said "this does not look like a tar archive"
[11:19] <hmhowie> JesseT77: however "cat archive.tar picture.jpg > combo.tar" does make a valid archive
[11:20] <JesseT77> Yes but not a valid jpeg :)
[11:20] <leagris`> .
[11:21] <Weapon> hi
[11:21] <JesseT77> high
[11:21] <Frogzoo> JesseT77: cat blah.tar xxx.jpg |tar -tf - does indeed work
[11:21] <JesseT77> Frogzoo: It does but that is not the point :)
[11:21] <lalali> hi. suddenly ubuntu desktop running on vmware server doesn't boot anymore. boot stops after displaying "* Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local) What can I do ?
[11:21] <zeta> JesseT77: the problem with that is i don't have the SATA drivers for my hard drive... is it guaranteed to work?
[11:21] <Frogzoo> JesseT77: oh, ok
[11:21] <Weapon> hello~!!!
[11:21] <Weapon> im new guy!!
[11:22] <Evanlec> welcome
[11:22] <JesseT77> Frogzoo: Compare this trick: "cat picture.jpg archive.rar > combo.???" makes a file that is both a valid jpeg and a valid rar. hmhowie was confirming if tar could do the same, which it cannot.
[11:22] <Weapon> thx!
[11:22] <hmhowie> JesseT77: and the jpeg added at the end of the valid tar archive does not suddenly appear when you unpack the archive
[11:22] <muts> hi there
[11:22] <quietFrank> hi just installed gusty on an inspiron and have no audio
[11:22] <muts> trying out gutsy - my first ubuntu experience
[11:22] <muts> amazing
[11:23] <quietFrank> lspci says its an intel 82801h
[11:23] <quietFrank> but not sure where to go next
[11:23] <Hakan[TT] > Abit noobish question..In redhat you have a command called service, you can use like: service httpd start   what do you use in unbuntu to perform same thing ?
[11:23] <quietFrank> can anyone help
[11:23] <jaggz1> Hakan, /etc/init.d/apache2 start
[11:23] <JesseT77> zeta: sata drivers.. sata drivers...hmm... if you had a vista windows disk perhaps, as it's drivers would be up to date.
[11:23] <jaggz1> things like that..
[11:23] <Evanlec> quietFrank, i have that chipset i believe, try going to your sound mixer, and make sure the device is slected as ALSA
[11:23] <Tomcat_> Hakan[TT] : There's something... wait...
[11:23] <hmhowie> Hakan[TT] : go to /etc/init.d and start the service with ./<service name> start
[11:23] <muts> i'm having problems with installing nvidia drivers
[11:23] <quietFrank> it looks to me like there is no driver at all
[11:23] <Weapon> it's there the big irc about linix?
[11:24] <muts> through the restricted drivers manager
[11:24] <zeta> JesseT77: haha no chance... i've been trying to stay away from vista :p
[11:24] <n2diy> quietFrank: does lsmod show your sound card?
[11:24] <Hakan[TT] > ok i try it out... thx
[11:24] <JesseT77> zeta: Doing that however would not involve installing vista, just abusing it's repair util :)
[11:24] <quietFrank> n2diy: what would it look like ?
[11:24] <slimjimflim> *Hakan[TT]  WILL try it out
[11:25] <jaggz1> I've never got totem to work.  it doesn't play anything at all.
[11:25] <n2diy> quietFrank: hopefully it will show your cards modle number. There will be other sound stuff listed too.
[11:25] <Tomcat_> Hakan[TT] : invoke-rc.d service <action>
[11:25] <JesseT77> jaggz1: me neither. I need some codecs from somewhere. :/
[11:25] <quietFrank> nothing that looks like it to me
[11:26] <slimjimflim> i use totem for about everything
[11:26] <zeta> JesseT77: yeah tru :p i'm going to try a utility called testdisk before i attempt vista... also, is there anyway to download JUST the recovery console from microsoft?
[11:26] <jaggz1> I've been using xine for a long time now
[11:26] <slimjimflim> just won't play avi...haven't looked for libs tho
[11:26] <jaggz1> for dvds, videos.. just about everything
[11:26] <quietFrank> the is a line called snd
[11:26] <n2diy> quietFrank: ok, so google on your sound card, and linux, and see if you can find it's module(driver)
[11:26] <Weapon> hi!
[11:26] <Weapon> i have a question!
[11:26] <isna> hai
[11:27] <JesseT77> zeta: no, and if there were it wouldn't end up including your sata controlers.
[11:27] <ArmedKing> What where the parameters for checking drive speeds for hdparm again?
[11:27] <Frogzoo> Weapon: we supposed to guess?
[11:27] <slimjimflim> no you don't
[11:27] <jaggz1> mplayer on a vic20?
[11:27] <Weapon> how can i play the '.mkv'type!
[11:27] <JesseT77> zeta: best of luck with the third party stuffs though, ntfs is rough. :/
[11:27] <Weapon> yes mplayer is on a vic20
[11:27] <slimjimflim> i bet google knows
[11:27] <JesseT77> Weapon: I know mkv is matroska
[11:27] <quietFrank> nd2diy, thanks
[11:27] <WaltzingAlong> ArmedKing: man hdparm
[11:27] <ArmedKing> man hdparm
[11:27] <ArmedKing> soz :p
[11:28] <zeta> JesseT77: tell me about it ... thanks though :)
[11:28] <JesseT77> Weapon: so a google for ubuntu matroska could help, but I am also without codecs.
[11:28] <Frogzoo> ArmedKing: hdparm doesn't seem to like the new sda interface
[11:28] <ArmedKing> Frogzoo: Let me check that right away :p
[11:28] <z9999> Using ubuntu 6.06. I closed the lid on the notebook yesterday and opened it today, and the wireless connection shows active, but disconnected. I tried deactivating and activating it which worked last time, but not this time. How to I reconnect to the router?
[11:29] <ArmedKing> Frogzoo: hdparm -tT works fine here
[11:29] <Weapon> the irc is so hard to use~.
[11:29] <askand> How do I mount a second floppydrive?
[11:29] <Weapon> i think ubuntu not like windows so easy!
[11:29] <Frogzoo> ArmedKing: sure, but hdparm -d /dev/sda no dice
[11:29] <Weapon> it's so hard to use
[11:29] <slimjimflim> #french
[11:30] <jaggz1> z9999, it's possible the router needs to be reset too sometimes
[11:30] <n2diy> !fr
[11:30] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[11:30] <jaggz1> I've had that problem.. (not with opening/closing.. just sometimes it happens)
[11:30] <ArmedKing> Frogzoo: Correct does nothing
[11:30] <lalali> hi. botting ubuntu suddenly gives me this error: "* Starting powernowd...    /etc/rc2.d/S20powernowd: 156: cannot create /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0//cpufreq/scaling_governor: Directory nonexistent"  What does this mean?
[11:30] <Hakan[TT] > Whats wrong when i do sudo anycommand and i get error saying "timestamp too far in the future" (fresh install of ubuntu
[11:31] <JesseT77> Someone once insinuated to me that using wine to play yahoo games would be ridiculously easy. Somehow, I am not seeing that. ;)
[11:31] <ArmedKing> Hakan[TT] : Is your time setup correctly?
[11:31] <slimjimflim> z9999, can you connect with an ethernet cable?
[11:31] <Frogzoo> Hakan[TT] : it means your system clock went backwards
[11:31] <Hakan[TT] > and why should sudo stop working co sof that ?
[11:31] <JesseT77> Hakan[TT] : Yes, your delorian was struck by lightning, yo :)
[11:31] <z9999> jaggz1: I'll give that a try when it's the other computers aren't using it. Thanks.
[11:32] <POVaddct> Hakan[TT] : try sudo -k and then again your command
[11:33] <Hakan[TT] > -k not valid
[11:33] <n2diy> -K?
[11:33] <jaggz1> window maker's been around a long time.. maybe it's good?
[11:33] <muts> anyone has experience with compiz on gutsy ?
[11:33] <Frogzoo> Hakan[TT] : "sudo -k"
[11:33] <taurusivy> Hakan[TT] : use adjust date & time to set the date/time to the later time
[11:33] <taurusivy> and then execute "sudo -k" to clear the timestamp. finally use adjust date & time again to set to the correct time
[11:34] <Frogzoo> Hakan[TT] : are you dual booting?
[11:34] <askand> How do I mount a second floppydrive?
[11:35] <z9999> slimjimflim: I probably could, but don't have a spare cable now, which is why we are using the wireless.
[11:35] <Hakan[TT] > no nto duel booting
[11:35] <WaltzingAlong> !repeat
[11:35] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[11:35] <Hakan[TT] > clean fresh new instal of ubuntu
[11:35] <Hakan[TT] > server version
[11:35] <slimjimflim> z9999, maybe your neighbor put a password on the router
[11:35] <Hakan[TT] > sudo -K ls   dont work
[11:35] <slimjimflim> lol
[11:35] <taurusivy> sudo -k
[11:35] <ArmedKing> !floppy askand
[11:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about floppy askand - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:35] <ArmedKing> !floppy
[11:35] <ubotu> To mount floppy disks, see here : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MakeFloppyDriveAvailableToEveryone
[11:36] <taurusivy> Hakan[TT] : you must set time to be later than the sudo complains
[11:36] <Ethan> I want to write a floppy image to my usb stick, any idea ?
[11:36] <taurusivy> Hakan[TT] : and then "sudo -k"
[11:36] <DarKChr0n0s> use su and do all stuf
[11:36] <DarKChr0n0s> and exit
[11:36] <nanonyme> sigh
[11:37] <askand> ArmedKing: that doesnt explain how to mount a second floppydrive
[11:37] <taurusivy> is it possible to use pci nic card instead  of onboard nic card?
[11:37] <z9999> slimjimflim: My nearest neighbors are rice farmers, I'm in a somewhat isolated area, Thai/Laos border.
[11:37] <CoCaInE> Hello, i got problems with makin VNC server workin, could any1 help me ?
[11:37] <JesseT77> Ethan: no ideas here. I have shot myself in the foot with usb bullets many a time :(
[11:37] <DarKChr0n0s> taurusivy:  yes it is
[11:37] <JesseT77> taurusivy: yes
[11:37] <Hakan[TT] > humm during installation it never asked for a root password. (iam used to redhat) soo whats the passwod for su then ?
[11:37] <Ethan> :$
[11:37] <ArmedKing> askand: Just follow those steps and replace floppy0 for floppy1
[11:38] <DarKChr0n0s> remove the plug from on-board and put it in the pc nic card
[11:38] <CoCaInE> > sudo vncpasswd /root/.vncpasswd
[11:38] <CoCaInE> Password: Password too short
[11:38] <JesseT77> taurusivy: and I will be astounded if booting ubuntu with the pci card installed does not autodetect :)
[11:38] <CoCaInE> whats that about
[11:38] <askand> ArmedKing: but I have to write /dev/fd1 or something dont I?
[11:38] <ArmedKing> askand correct
[11:38] <ghatak> exit
[11:38] <ghatak> oopps
[11:38] <slimjimflim> z9999 well, if you reset the router, you might still need a cable
[11:38] <JesseT77> Hakan[TT] : when you sudo, you use your own password. I didn't know my root password either so I used "sudo passwd root" to set it :)
[11:39] <GNine> !root
[11:39] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[11:39] <Hakan[TT] > yhaa but cos i cant use sudo cos my clock is wrong i cant use su lol monent 22 :)
[11:40] <taurusivy> DarKChr0n0s: why does the os keep using the onboard card?
[11:40] <JesseT77> Hakan[TT] : can you modify the date from the calendar in the upper right?
[11:40] <JesseT77> Hakan[TT] : through the GUI?
[11:40] <z9999> slimjimflim: That's not an option, we don't have sufficient cables, and the wireless is a necessity for this particular computer.
[11:40] <Hakan[TT] > JEsse server version no X crap :) pure command promt :)
[11:40] <jaggz1> is there anything more useful than the taskbar on the bottom and a couple menus and a bunch of quick-to-access icons in the top panel?
[11:40] <slimjimflim> don't know what to say
[11:40] <n2diy> JesseT77: yes, right click it
[11:40] <taurusivy> JesseT77: it's detected, not used though
[11:40] <slimjimflim> z9999 go to radio shack
[11:41] <slimjimflim> .com
[11:41] <niabot> Did someone know something about the problem, that HAL don't detect a Laptop as Laptop since it don't recognize the battery bay at startup? If i kill "hald" and "gnome-power-manager" manually and restart it later, all is fine, but not at the first start :(
[11:41] <Frogzoo> jaggz1: right click & setup applets
[11:41] <lalali> hi. suddenly ubuntu desktop running on vmware server doesn't boot anymore. boot stops after displaying "* Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local) What can I do ?
[11:41] <JesseT77> taurusivy: you might need to use the ubuntu network config to tell the new card what to do then
[11:41] <Frogzoo> jaggz1: you can create custom launchers for any app
[11:41] <lalali> hi. botting ubuntu suddenly gives me this error: "* Starting powernowd...    /etc/rc2.d/S20powernowd: 156: cannot create /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0//cpufreq/scaling_governor: Directory nonexistent"  What does this mean?
[11:41] <jaggz1> frogzoo, I mean.. this is gnome-panel that does this
[11:41] <lalali> I cannot boot ubuntu.
[11:41] <jaggz1> I'm wondering, if I'm to switch my environment.. this seems really almost as good as it's going to get -- I'd need something comparable
[11:41] <moDumass> hey all, how would i update blender from 2.44 to 2.45?
[11:42] <jaggz1> but I really would like to be able to do more keyboard mapping..
[11:42] <Frogzoo> lalali: at a guess, you don't have a cpu that can cpu scale?
[11:42] <taurusivy> JesseT77:  is it necessary to use both of them at the same time?
[11:42] <JesseT77> Hakan[TT] : hmm boot from ubuntu CD and try fixing the clock from there?
[11:42] <z9999> slimjimflim: Not an option either, besides a cable would only be useful when we had physical access to the router.
[11:42] <JesseT77> taurusivy: no you can turn on or off any interface. If you don't like the onboard nic you can bring it down so that the pci nic is the only active one.
[11:42] <taurusivy> JesseT77: is it possible that the performance will get better for my dapper server?
[11:43] <n2diy> jaggzl; have you looked at "man loadkeys" ?
[11:43] <Hakan[TT] > I just installed ubunto and did nothing  sudo was working and after 1 hour clock is wrong all of a suddon... lol feels secure to loose sudo on servers..
[11:43] <segagman> kool aid
[11:43] <slimjimflim> well, i'd recommend, not hacking into your neighbor's router then
[11:43] <lalali> Frogzoo, it's same one as yesterday... only thing I did yesterday is fiddle around with rcconf (which I had to apt-get), and update system using ubuntu desktop updater. Apart from that... nothing else. However yesterday it did boot after I did the aforementioned changes.
[11:43] <JesseT77> taurusivy: only if the pci nic is superior to the onboard one in some way :)
[11:43] <slimjimflim> or googling it
[11:44] <Hakan[TT] > must be some kind of way to use sudo with a wrong time.... ?   what happends is some hack a NTP server and mess aroudn with clock and then 1000 os ppl cant use sudo any more
[11:44] <segagman> jess i wish u tak to me frien donnie
[11:44] <JesseT77> taurusivy: combining two nics to acheive better performance is very situation specific. Combining them for higher bandwidth would not be advisable.
[11:44] <niabot> Second try: Did someone know something about the problem, that HAL don't detect a Laptop as Laptop since it don't recognize the battery bay at startup? If i kill "hald" and "gnome-power-manager" manually and restart it later, all is fine, but not at the first start :(
[11:44] <sams> can we tuneup the ubuntu for better prformance ????
[11:44] <taurusivy> JesseT77: onboard : rtl 8139; pci: d-link dfe-530tx, what u think?
[11:44] <GNine> your having a bad day there, Hakan[TT]  ?
[11:44] <JesseT77> Hakan[TT] : If NTP were more than trivially hackable, then sudo would be the least of your worries ;)
[11:44] <GNine> take a chill pill
[11:44] <n2diy> sams: yes, try #ubuntu-kernel
[11:44] <Frogzoo> Hakan[TT] : would be strange indeed for ntp servers to be hacked
[11:45] <JesseT77>  taurusivy I think thats a lot of abbreviations. :)  Are we talking about 10-baseT max on one card and gigabit on the other? ;)
[11:45] <Hakan[TT] > GNine jnaaa i take it with a lol cos my first try with ubuntu (got 10 servers running redhat for the moment and checking ubunto out to see if I should move them to ubunto instead)
[11:46] <Hakan[TT] > Iam just abit confused how sudo refuse to work if time gets wrong.
[11:46] <etienne> hi
[11:46] <segagman> comand 13.2.5 beta tho sholt slam thy beer dawwin wiki ..somtin
[11:46] <JesseT77> Hakan[TT] : my opinion is that ubuntu is vastly superior to redhat. For a server I use Debian, but I am exploring Ubuntu for the desktop.
[11:46] <etienne> am i ont he right channel to talk about possible video bug on gutsy ?
[11:47] <taurusivy> JesseT77: is it true that pci ones always work better than the onboard ones if they are on the same-level
[11:47] <MeRodent> etienne, #ubuntu+1
[11:47] <etienne> ok MeRodent
[11:47] <JesseT77> Hakan[TT] : the time problem has something to do with security. When you use sudo it remembers your creds for X minutes, so if the time is wrong that system goes out of whack.
[11:47] <JesseT77> taurusivy: no it is not.
[11:48] <JesseT77> taurusivy: it is true that pci works better than onboard once onboard burns out, I have had that happen to me ;)
[11:48] <GNine> i cant crash my ubuntu , help!
[11:49] <n2diy> GNine: doesn't need help.
[11:49] <Hakan[TT] > kinda hard when server is remote location and gets time wrong and you cant reboot or anything. and all cos of a NTP server might have wrong time.. feels crazy..
[11:49] <greenmanwitch_> hi guys! I'm an Ubuntu newbie :P
[11:49] <niabot> Any suggestion what can be wrong with hald at the first start? after restarting it, it works fine....
[11:49] <tapsu> Hallo! The problem is nVidia card and TV-out. Could somebody please point me to the right direction?
[11:50] <JesseT77> GNine: 35nm tuna could in theory be slurped through a straw
[11:50] <greenmanwitch_> I just installed the bcm43xx module and I added it to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 and rebooted but it didn't autoload :S
[11:50] <POVaddct> Hakan[TT] : and   sudo -K   (without any further commands) does not work?
[11:50] <Hakan[TT] > no sudo commands works.
[11:50] <taurusivy> JesseT77: why is ubuntu keep asking for arp mac addr while they are there in arp cache
[11:50] <n2diy> greenmanwitch_: double check the addition stuck.
[11:51] <greenmanwitch_> n2diy: ... huh?
[11:51] <GNine> in theory .. 35nm tuna sandwich can be sniffed.. i do it all the time.. but i rather use my state reversal microwave device to eat it at normal size
[11:51] <n2diy> greenmanwitch_: are you sure it is bcm43xx loaded?
[11:51] <JesseT77> taurusivy: what? you mean it is prompting the user to enter mac addresses, or you are sniffing and see all kinds of arp traffic?
[11:52] <greenmanwitch_> n2diy: what, no, it won't load on boot. I want it to.
[11:52] <greenmanwitch_> n2diy: at the moment I have to sudo modprobe bcm43xx whenever I reboot
[11:52] <taurusivy> JesseT77: I am sniffering with ethereal and see all kind of arp traffic from my box :(
[11:53] <JesseT77> taurusivy: so it gets the arp answers but then asks again anyway?
[11:53] <Hakan[TT] > phoned a friend to restart the server now sudo works again,,, and onyl until it synch clock again i guess.... but now I did sudo passwd root. soo i can use su next itme if it happends lol
[11:53] <moDumass> hey all, so i dloaded blender and it runs straight out of the box, how do i make a menu shortcut to the app?
[11:53] <POVaddct> greenmanwitch_: /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 is the wrong place, it is /etc/modules. do not try to use gentoo mechanisms on ubuntu.
[11:53] <JesseT77> Hakan[TT] : hurk!  And you don't have to reboot when you run modprobe bc43xx, it opens  with the modprobe command.
[11:53] <greenmanwitch_> POVaddct: sorry, I didn't know it was different. gentoo and slackware are the only distros I've ever used so I don't really know much about the outside world.
[11:54] <Hakan[TT] > lol
[11:54] <taurusivy> JesseT77: the switch in my office was down before I caught those asp traffic packets
[11:54] <greenmanwitch_> n2diy: no I meant after I reboot I have to run it.
[11:54] <POVaddct> greenmanwitch_: ubuntu is debian-like
[11:54] <JesseT77> taurusivy: you mean it flooded your switch and brought it down? or the arp traffic only happened while the switch was unavailble?
[11:54] <_blitz_> hello guys .i installed ubuntu. but i am not able to take internet because my modem is not supported.i dual boot xp and ubuntu.can anyone tell me from where i can download the softwares plugins etc?
[11:54] <greenmanwitch_> POVaddct: yeah, I wasn't a fan of debian. ubuntu is much better :P
[11:54] <greenmanwitch_> POVaddct: debian I took one look at and ewww
[11:54] <nikolay_> hello
[11:54] <n2diy> greenmanwitch_: ok, so you want to load the module at boot time, right?
[11:55] <POVaddct> greenmanwitch_: btw, the module should autoload through hardware detection alone
[11:55] <taurusivy> JesseT77: the switch went down periodically, but it works well when I plugged off the ether wire
[11:55] <POVaddct> greenmanwitch_: i like debian
[11:55] <greenmanwitch_> n2diy: yeah, but POVaddct told me how
[11:55] <JesseT77> taurusivy: plugged off? which ether wire? are you flooding the switch into submission or not? :P
[11:55] <moDumass> hey all, how do i make an aplication shortcut or link to an app in the apps menu?
[11:55] <n2diy> greenmanwitch_: so... it didn't work?
[11:56] <taurusivy> JesseT77: I was sort of suspect that it's my ubuntu that makes it down
[11:56] <chaumurky> _blitz_ start here: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/
[11:56] <greenmanwitch_> n2diy: nah it will now, I think.
[11:56] <JesseT77> You aren't running a Real OS until you can drown a dedicated network appliance. ;)
[11:56] <Hakan[TT] > Impressed by the apt-get speed i got towards ubunto 4000Kbit /sec :)
[11:56] <n2diy> greenmanwitch_: good luck, make sure you have permissiion to edit the file.
[11:56] <JakeConnor> is there a way to configure a device in fstab to not mount until the whole system is up?
[11:57] <greenmanwitch_> fun game :) : play as Sherloc Holmes and try to find all of the Windows clients on your network, then ping -f until they die
[11:57] <JesseT77> taurusivy: what network set up do you use? DHCP, or static ip addresses? The only thing I know of that can cause that much traffic is a network loop (aka network "storm")
[11:57] <ce_LucU> nik
[11:57] <Frogzoo> JakeConnor: you can give it noauto, not really what you want
[11:57] <greenmanwitch_> n2diy: yeah, I own root user so it is all good :)
[11:57] <hmhowie> JakeConnor: if i remember correctly, devices in fstab can have an auto tag. if you set this to noauto for your device, you can write a script in /etc/rc2.d to activate the device
[11:57] <moDumass> woohoo, autosolved
[11:57] <JakeConnor> Frogzoo: what does noauto do?
[11:57] <JesseT77> greenmanwitch_: or if you are lazy you could smurf them all
[11:57] <erUSUL> JakeConnor: all filesystems marked auto in fstab are mounted at once with a single call to 'mount -a'
[11:57] <taurusivy> JesseT77: static ip
[11:58] <n2diy> greenmanwitch_: and very dangerous!
[11:58] <greenmanwitch_> JesseT77: smurf..?
[11:58] <JesseT77> taurusivy: just one on one interface, or a bunch of complicated aliases?
[11:58] <Frogzoo> JakeConnor: doesn't mount on boot
[11:58] <greenmanwitch_> n2diy: how is it dangerous? they'll never know, they are windows users, afterall!
[11:58] <erUSUL> JakeConnor: if they are marked noauto they will have to be manually mounted later
[11:58] <JakeConnor> Frogzoo: then what's the point of putting it in the fstab if you don't want it to mount?
[11:59] <taurusivy> JesseT77: I mean I cut off my net link ,and the switch works well
[11:59] <Frogzoo> JakeConnor: cos later, you can mount it manually with 'mount /mntpoint'
[11:59] <JesseT77> greenmanwitch_: euphamism for sending malformed ping packets. Normally, attacker sends a packet to a multicast address claiming a source at another IP (the target ip). Then the multicast copies the ping to everyone on the network, and everyone on the network tries to reply to the target.
[11:59] <drake> hey all
[11:59] <taurusivy> just one interface: eth0
[11:59] <greenmanwitch_> JesseT77: hahaha :d
[11:59] <drake> i have a problem
[11:59] <greenmanwitch_> JesseT77: how.. evil!
[11:59] <JakeConnor> Frogzoo: oooo ok cool
[11:59] <GNine> so u just said Hakan[TT]  got hacked?
[12:00] <JesseT77> taurusivy: Are there other devices on the switch? does it behave differently if you plug into a different switch port?
[12:00] <GNine> :-P
[12:00] <n2diy> greenmanwitch_: the danger is as root, you can do anything you want to your box, like you could in windows. Linux protects you from yourself. As long as your only a user, you can't mess up your linux box.
[12:00] <taurusivy> JesseT77: and what could cause the so called network "loop" or "storm"?
[12:00] <GNine> a worm
[12:01] <greenmanwitch_> n2diy: yeah I know. I think you misunderstood. I OWN root but I am in my user.
[12:01] <JesseT77> taurusivy: a loop/storm could be caused if you had 2 interfaces misconfigured, or strange aliases, such that your traffic forms a feedback loop (think microphone feedback as an example). One static ip on one adapter cannot cause that.
[12:01] <n2diy> greenmanwitch_: ok, good!
[12:01] <ce_LucU> hallo
[12:01] <greenmanwitch_> n2diy: heheh I'm new to ubuntu but I'm not exactly new to Linux. I've been using it for about a year.
[12:01] <greenmanwitch_> n2diy: almost a year
[12:01] <ce_LucU> k\hal
[12:02] <Some_ux> I do not understand how ubuntu deals with USB devices
[12:02] <ce_LucU> hallo
[12:02] <taurusivy> JesseT77: there are dozens of ethernet wires in the switch.
[12:02] <hironakamura> Short question, when i write "route -n" theer is a line that i have not configured, and i don't know why it is there, any help of what can be happening?
[12:02] <n2diy> greenmanwitch_: welcome aboard swabbie, ten years here.

[12:02] <JesseT77> taurusivy: does plugging your ubuntu box onto a different switch port cause the same behavior?
[12:02] <erUSUL> !paste | hironakamura
[12:02] <ubotu> hironakamura: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:02] <taurusivy> GNine: oh you mean my ubuntu has got a worm :)
[12:02] <hironakamura> This is the <IP_ADDRESS> line, i don't known what is it
[12:02] <GNine> potentially.. yet inconclusive
[12:03] <Some_ux> if i have a UPS connected to the usb port, how is it called ? /dev/usb something ?
[12:03] <POVaddct> hironakamura: it's the avahi (zeroconf) thingie. i disabled avahi here.
[12:03] <taurusivy> JesseT77: well, I didn't try a different port.
[12:03] <JesseT77> hironakamura: please use a pastebin for this sort of thing. :)   Anyway that line is standard. The 169.254 space is often used by confused windows machines.
[12:03] <n2diy> greenmanwitch_: welcome aboard swabbie, ten years here.
[12:04] <hironakamura> sorry all, i just though i was not flooding with 5 lines, but i see i've actually flooded. Sorry
[12:04] <JesseT77> taurusivy: If it does continue on a different port, next test would be connect to another machine on the same logical subnet directly using a crossover cable. Then see if the crazy traffic persists via ethereal.
[12:04] <Some_ux> A decent tutorial on UPS installation for ubuntu is sorely missing
[12:04] <hironakamura> and thanks for the response! :)
[12:04] <taurusivy> JesseT77: I willl give a try. but it's weird that it's not that I totally can't get linked up, just randomly
[12:05] <taurusivy> GNine: yes
[12:05] <hmhowie> taurusivy: ethereal is called wireshark in feisty :)
[12:05] <JesseT77> taurusivy: network floods of any kind will give you some pretty unreliable symptoms.
[12:05] <taurusivy> hmhowie: yes, i know, but i still use dapper ;)
[12:05] <JesseT77> hmhowie: it's called wireshark everywhere that it's less than a few months old :)
[12:06] <nanonyme> hmhowie, ethereal was renamed wireshark altogether iirc
[12:06] <JesseT77> taurusivy: even if the flood only happens while you are plugged in, there is still a chance that it is the interplay between your machine and something on the network.. hence the crossover test.
[12:06] <hmhowie> JesseT77: let me guess, aol said they owned hte rights to the name "ethereal"?
[12:06] <GNine> i dont think there is a network flood or a worm .. i think proper config must be conducted and checked ..  and thats why i like dhcp .. so i can have time to munch on my tuna sandwich
[12:07] <JesseT77> GNine: hmm? Are you speaking of taurusivy's trouble or someone else?
[12:07] <GNine> ignore above sentence.. am sleepy
[12:07] <JesseT77> lol
[12:07] <POVaddct> hmhowie: no, the original author of ethereal named his company ethereal. so the project was renamed.
[12:07] <hmhowie> GNine: well, that's one advantage of dhcp which had never occured to me
[12:07] <JesseT77> I make all of my sandwhiches with Mayonase
[12:07] <taurusivy> JesseT77: you are probably right.
[12:08] <hmhowie> POVaddct: oh, okay :)
[12:08] <JesseT77> I'm a whiz at MineSweeper. I could play for days! ;)
[12:08] <Some_ux> i installed nut-usb, but it have no idea how to use it to config my USB UPS
[12:08] <nanonyme> actually wiki says ethereal was owned by Network Integration Services
[12:09] <JesseT77> Some_ux: I don't know either. Does your UPS documentation have any advice for this particular software?
[12:09] <taurusivy> GNine: but the same config works well for several months
[12:09] <nanonyme> which was the employer of the coder who made ethereal
[12:09] <POVaddct> nanonyme: hmm
[12:09] <Skaag> Hi guys, I'm following this guide here on installing Xen, it says that I apt-get install ubuntu-xen-server and right after that I can modify a config file and restart xend, but on my system, xend does not start. Do I have to perhaps reboot after I install ubuntu-xen-server?  (the page is here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen)
[12:09] <Kachna> hello here, got a trougle, after dist-upgrade,i can't load fglrx module into 2.6.21 kernel, ati drivers are installed -> any suggestions? :O
[12:09] <GNine> then there is some new you just did that .. changed it..
[12:09] <quietFrank> n2diy: found a note on the dell linux site saying that the snd-hda-intel is the driver I need but I have no idea how to get it :)
[12:09] <nanonyme> he later quit so he had to change the name
[12:09] <erUSUL> Kachna: how did you installed the drivers?
[12:09] <POVaddct> nanonyme: aha
[12:09] <GNine> follow your footsteps back to the light
[12:10] <POVaddct> i hate these trademark issues
[12:10] <JakeConnor> if the 5th column in the fstab is marked 1 for backup then what uses that to backup?
[12:10] <Skaag> ok yes i had to reboot
[12:10] <JebJoya> hi, I'm having a slight issue with a USB mouse stopping working after having had to re set up the xserver details (with sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg), now I can't use the USB mouse - it lights up, but doesn't cause any reaction on-screen - any thoughts?:
[12:10] <n2diy> greenmanwitch_: roger that, google for Dell Boot Sector, or something like that?
[12:10] <Some_ux> JesseT77: UPS comes with a, how shall i put this, less than informative docs about linux. They give some sort of crappy binary program (not open source) and it does not work
[12:10] <Kachna> eracc: using .run package from ati website, with root privileges ofc.
[12:10] <nanonyme> POVaddct, yes, imho opensource projects should be excempt from trademarks
[12:11] <erUSUL> Kachna: when you install drivers this way you have to reinstall them when there's a kernel upgrade
[12:11] <JesseT77> Some_ux: As I've mentioned to others today my browser is currently inoperable.. but do the makers of nut-usb have a website outside of ubuntu with further advice?
[12:11] <nanonyme> POVaddct, although the trouble there is that then someone could make an opensource project called windows :P
[12:11] <Kachna> eracc: yep i did, but modprobe still says there's no fglrx module
[12:12] <Some_ux> JesseT77: they do have a site, but finding relevant data in it is tough
[12:12] <syn74x> @kachna:  do u use 8.41./ ?
[12:12] <Kachna> oops sry mean erUSUL not eracc :P
[12:12] <JesseT77> Having to rename a peice of OSS is not as bad of a hassle as no longer being able to extend it's source though. OSS still roxors
[12:12] <Some_ux> NUT is open source btw
[12:12] <pirxx> greetings, all
[12:12] <taurusivy> Kachna: try to check the kernel version with your kernel source version with which you compiled the driver
[12:12] <erUSUL> Kachna: :S i own a nvidia card so i do not have experience with fglrx....
[12:12] <Kachna> syn74x: nope, they say not use it with X1600...so i tried ofc. :P and had no screen :(
[12:13] <JebJoya> ok, since noone has any thoughts on that one, easier question - what do i need to change in xorg.conf to get a USB mouse to work?
[12:13] <Kachna> taurusivy: didn't compile it, that's not opensource driver :'(
[12:13] <erUSUL> Kachna: try to find it --> find /lib/modules -name '*fglrx*' -print
[12:13] <taurusivy> Kachna: maybe you can compile it under /lib/module/fglrx
[12:14] <Kachna> something found...can paste 4 lines? :P
[12:14] <JesseT77> JebJoya: There is a howto for this on yonder ubuntu wiki that I cannot browse to at present time :)
[12:14] <sam__> How would I install SMTP so it would work with the PHP mail function?
[12:14] <JebJoya> JesseT77, any google search terms you can suggest?
[12:14] <erUSUL> Kachna: well if the module is there try 'sudo depmod -a'
[12:14] <JesseT77> JebJoya: there is even a xorg config menu driven tool so (probably) won't have to edit xorg.conf by hand
[12:14] <erUSUL> Kachna: and then modprobe again
[12:15] <JesseT77> JebJoya: ubuntu wiki usb mouse
[12:15] <JebJoya> JesseT77: yeah, that's the one that I used, I just didn't know which of the 5 settings to pick for USB mice :)
[12:15] <syn74x> is it possible that kachna has diable fglrx in /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[12:15] <JesseT77> JebJoya: My mous eis usb (had to check to confirm) and running the tool while madly mashing "enter" did the job for me
[12:15] <Kachna> (should mention it's deb not ubuntu however, should be not many differences in this >.<) trying
[12:16] <JebJoya> ...
[12:16] <JebJoya> stupid program.
[12:16] <JebJoya> right, let's try this again then, I might be back here later :)
[12:17] <Kachna> syn74x: what if the file is not present? :P
[12:17] <syn74x> hmm idont know if it is ubuntu specific
[12:17] <hironakamura> Anyone could help me in building an AP with madwifi?
[12:18] <Kachna> syn74x: i think it'S for deb too,maybe it's just coz i have no restricted modules? :/
[12:18] <Some_ux> argh
[12:18] <Some_ux> quote: "Attaching an uninterruptible power supply to a Linux-based system can unruffle even experienced system builders."
[12:18] <syn74x> yeah ur right
[12:19] <taurusivy> Kachna: in that case, modprobe should have not complained
[12:19] <syn74x> so its net the problem
[12:19] <hironakamura> iwconfig
[12:19] <hironakamura> (sorry)
[12:20] <aantn> !svg
[12:20] <ubotu> svg is Scalable Vector Graphics, a language used for graphical applications in XML, and a W3 recommendation. SVG Editors: Inkscape, Karbon14
[12:20] <Some_ux> this is going to be messy...
[12:20] <chuxxsss> any one no much about the modprode command?
[12:21] <myriadar> hi, i have little problems with my sylpheed claw .. it's an old version and i want to upgrade it
[12:21] <Kachna> this is interesting, when i ls in /etc/modules:
[12:21] <kritzstapf> is there much more to know than "modprobe modname"?
[12:21] <Kachna> sorry /lib/modules
[12:21] <Kachna> 2.6.18-5-amd64  2.6.21-2-amd64  fglrx
[12:21] <aantn> is there a program I can use to convert a jpg/png to a svg?
[12:21] <alexxx> hi how do i get ubuntu to use wpa-psk instead of wep when using wireless?
[12:21] <animaletto> hi
[12:21] <myriadar> i downloaded the bz2's from sourceforge, but unfortunately there is no .deb-package for easy installin
[12:21] <myriadar> g
[12:21] <kritzstapf> aantn: thats not a good idea, why do you want to do this?
[12:22] <CoCaInE> Guys i made tightvnc server but when i login on windows
[12:22] <CoCaInE> i see just gray screen
[12:22] <Kachna> maybe should i copy /lib/modules/fglrx to /lib/modules/2.6.21-2-amd64 ?
[12:22] <u-foka> hy! Can anyone point me, hot to compile btg (bittorrent daemon) on feisty? The configure script missing libboost iostreams, but it's installed
[12:22] <aantn> kritzstapf: I was thinking of making a svg icon set based on a regular icon set
[12:22] <aantn> kritzstapf: why is that a bad idea?
[12:22] <Karti> any idea what antivirus I can use that will integrate with my email application? Cheers
[12:23] <kritzstapf> aantn: because svg is a vector based graphic format
[12:23] <aantn> kritzstapf: I know
[12:23] <aantn> kritzstapf: thats the point
[12:23] <kritzstapf> aantn: and you cant get the vectorial information out of a bitmap
[12:23] <aantn> kritzstapf: I want a scalable icon set
[12:23] <aantn> kritzstapf: sorry if I was unclear
[12:23] <kritzstapf> youll have to redraw the icon using something like inkscape
[12:23] <taurusivy> Kachna: so it's opensrc. you can recompile it manually in /lib/module/fglrx
[12:24] <aantn> kritzstapf: I'm looking for a program to "trace" a bitmap and generate an svg
[12:24] <aantn> kritzstapf: something like flash's "trace bitmap
[12:24] <kritzstapf> aantn: i dont think theres anything with satisfying results..
[12:24] <aantn> it analyzes the bitmap and generates an svg
[12:24] <aantn> kk
[12:24] <POVaddct> aantn: vectorizers only work on large bitmaps. there is autotrace, you might try that, but don't expect good results.
[12:25] <u-foka> aantn: it canbe done with xara xtreme, but the result isn't so good, but i haven't seen any good solutions
[12:25] <aantn> ok
[12:25] <Kachna> taurusivy: there's a clue, but strange appearance,lemme paste..sec.
[12:25] <aantn> I'll try both of those out
[12:25] <aantn> thanks
[12:25] <Anlar> there is one open source application that generates nearly perfect svgs from raster images, but I can't recall the name.. I bet you can find it from sf.net
[12:25] <taurusivy> i compiled 8.28  for ati m9000 in laptop. and i dont use 'restricted modules' it's working great
[12:26] <Kachna> http://www.pastebin.cz/show/1998
[12:26] <Kachna> nah
[12:26] <Kachna> need headers i guess,sorry misread :P
[12:26] <aantn> Anlar: and its not autotrace or xara?
[12:27] <JebJoya> hey, I still am having issues getting my USB mouse to work - should this not just plug and play?  Any thoughts on what to do - it's probably just a setting in xorg.conf...
[12:27] <taurusivy> Kachna: you have to compile it in 'build' dir first, AFAIR
[12:27] <POVaddct> JebJoya: it should just work without changes in xorg.conf
[12:27] <POVaddct> JebJoya: maybe you have a general usb problem
[12:28] <JebJoya> POVaddct: my USB keyboard is working fine though.
[12:28] <fir3> hi
[12:28] <Kachna> taurusivy: looks like it succeed, should i reboot? or can i just modprobe
[12:28] <POVaddct> JebJoya: okay. the mouse should be handled by the same kernel module that handles the usb keyboard (usbhid)
[12:28] <Anlar> aatn: no, some specialized application. the results that I have seen were just plain magnificent
[12:28] <JebJoya> POVaddct: also, more than that, this has only stopped working after having to use "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" since the graphics drivers kinda died
[12:29] <taurusivy> Kachna: just reboot X for a try
[12:29] <JebJoya> POVaddct: (it was claiming no monitor was attached)
[12:29] <Spark> what do i need to install to get an smp kernel on the desktop?
[12:29] <Kachna> yep brb :-)
[12:29] <fir3> i used dist-upgrade to upgrade from feisty to gutsy. but now i can't boot ubuntu anymore. after selecting linux in refit the screen goes black(macbook)
[12:29] <bullgard4> Is there available a manual or user guide or man page or functional specification for 'HAL Device Manager'?
[12:29] <erUSUL> Spark: the generic kerne supports smp
[12:29] <aantn> Anlar: I'm looking at 243 search results... this might take a while
[12:29] <POVaddct> JebJoya: then you probably deleted the correct Section "Input" for your usb mouse
[12:29] <Spark> erUSUL: only one cpu shows up in /proc/cpuinfo
[12:29] <Anlar> aantn: waawaa
[12:30] <POVaddct> JebJoya: can you paste your xorg.conf on phpfi.com?
[12:30] <Spark> erUSUL: i take it the 386 kernel is supposed to as well?
[12:30] <JebJoya> POVaddct: yeah, I couldn't work out which one to pick
[12:30] <JebJoya> POVaddct: 2 secs
[12:30] <Spark> erUSUL: is there any advantage to using the 386 kernel?
[12:30] <kujo> i have an ipod shuffle and it no longer mounts automatically on ubuntu 7.04. It used to. It stopped working right after I successfully added a song to it using gtkpod. Does anyone know how to get the ipod to mount, or what this problem may have occurred?
[12:30] <Kachna> ok thx,here comes my direct rendering :-)
[12:30] <POVaddct> JebJoya: mouse device in the section should be /dev/input/mice
[12:31] <fido> ciao a tutti
[12:31] <Kachna> Spark: non OS stuff...like opera and so,kinda problematic on 64
[12:31] <erUSUL> Spark: i think that on the contraire there are disvantages... the i386 is anon optimized kernel afaics it is there for old machines
[12:31] <kujo> i mean, the ipod works, and the song added to it is there when i play the ipod, and i ejected the ipod, but after i ejected it it wouldn't mount again
[12:31] <fido> qual  il canale italiano di xubuntu?
[12:31] <JebJoya> POVaddct: that was the first one i tried, didn't work - was all PS/2 mice listed
[12:31] <JebJoya> POVaddct: http://phpfi.com/264148
[12:31] <Anlar> fido: ciao capo di tutti frutti
[12:32] <Spark> erUSUL: ok i'll try generic and see
[12:32] <fido> anlar: senti ho bisogno del tuto aiuto
[12:32] <erUSUL> Spark: generic is what is installed by default...
[12:32] <erUSUL> !generic | Spark
[12:32] <ubotu> Spark: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[12:32] <JebJoya> POVaddct: the reason for the /dev/ttyS0 was that I was going through each menu option to see if I could get it to work :S
[12:32] <Kachna> when testing in glxgears - isn't this kinda low? 19064 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3812.652 FPS
[12:32] <Spark> erUSUL: my system was a bit of a mess with custom kernels for a while
[12:33] <POVaddct> JebJoya: /dev/input/mice should work, there is no other way for usb mice. maybe you specified the wrong protocol
[12:33] <erUSUL> Spark: i see. I use a custom kernel too
[12:33] <fido> help installing usr5124 on xubuntu
[12:33] <cerneula> hello everyone. I have one pc running Ubuntu Server 7.04 setup as a web server with LAMP. My question is: using Firefox from this server, how can I view the pages but as if I was outside my home network. I don't know if I'm being clear, THank you!!
[12:33] <JebJoya> POVaddct: I'll give it another try - can i run the configuration tool from a console window?
[12:33] <Anlar> fido: Cagati in mano e prenditi a schiaffi
[12:34] <Kachna> cerneula: guess u'r looking for smth like a proxy?
[12:34] <POVaddct> JebJoya: here is my xorg.conf: http://phpfi.com/264149
[12:34] <USMarine> cerneula use a proxy
[12:34] <JebJoya> POVaddct: ImPS/2 or ExplorerPS/2?
[12:34] <POVaddct> JebJoya: ImPS/2
[12:34] <cerneula> ok guys thank you very much for your help!!
[12:34] <Spark> erUSUL: a problem that i have is that running an ubuntu system is mostly guesswork, where is the documentation that i should have read to find out that -generic was the right choice? :)
[12:35] <POVaddct> JebJoya: if you mean dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, yes, you can run that from a console
[12:35] <JebJoya> POVaddct: right, I'll restart X, bbiab
[12:37] <_blitz_> hello me a new user to Ubuntu and want to install a deb.please tell the command
[12:37] <JebJoya> POVaddct: hey, it worked - thanks a lot for the help! :)
[12:37] <POVaddct> JebJoya: cool
[12:37] <USMarine> _blitz_ dpkg -i package.deb
[12:37] <JebJoya> right, i need a cup of tea, cya'll later
[12:38] <POVaddct> JebJoya: i never used dpkg-reconfigure to change my xorg.conf, i edit by hand. have done that for years.
[12:38] <Digita3> Salve a tutti
[12:39] <USMarine> POVaddct >_<
[12:39] <Digita3> Ci sono italiani in questo canale?
[12:39] <POVaddct> USMarine: it's much better if you only want to make _one_ change
[12:40] <MeRodent> !it
[12:40] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[12:40] <rebugger> Digita3, try english ;)
[12:40] <valemon> hello
[12:40] <valemon> is there a way to display line count in gedit?
[12:40] <Digita3> ubotu: ma tu sei italiano?
[12:40] <rebugger> valemon, look in the settings
[12:40] <USMarine> Digita3 lol
[12:41] <MeRodent> Digita3, ubuto = bot
[12:41] <rebugger> you could enable "show linenumbers"
[12:41] <POVaddct> Digita3: ubotu is a bot. he just told you where you can find the italian channel.
[12:41] <USMarine> POVaddct in that case yes
[12:41] <rebugger> und look at the last linenumber ;)
[12:41] <valemon> my mistake
[12:41] <valemon> should have searched
[12:41] <valemon> thank you
[12:42] <Digita3> POVaddct: listen, but ubuntu-it is in server?
[12:43] <POVaddct> Digita3: yes, join it by typing  /j #ubuntu-it
[12:44] <erUSUL> Spark: you should install linux-generic (apt-cache show linux-generic)
[12:45] <Digita3> POVaddct: tks, ciao
[12:47] <Kopfgeldjaeger> hi
[12:47] <w00t> does anyone have any idea why a gnome-panel windowlist applet would not be transparent when the rest of the panel is, and how to fix it?
[12:49] <Spark> why is that aptitude seems to ignore termcap and require ^H instead of ^?
[12:49] <Spark> how can i debug this
[12:49] <taurusivy> how can I get the ip according to mac addr?
[12:49] <boghog> does the open-source 'radeon' driver support radeon X1550 pci-express ?
[12:49] <Spark> usually stuff "just works" when it comes to ^H vs ^?
[12:49] <izmaelis> have you tried turning it off and on again? (-:
[12:49] <Spark> taurusivy: you mean checking the arp cache?
[12:50] <Spark> taurusivy: maybe the command "arp" is what you want
[12:50] <bentob0x> I have two sound cards, firefox seems to output the sound on the first one but not on the second one and I want my second card to take the sound from Firefox without changing other sound configuration
[12:50] <POVaddct> taurusivy: arp -na  or  cat /proc/net/arp
[12:50] <w00t> does anyone have any idea why a gnome-panel windowlist applet would not be transparent when the rest of the panel is, and how to fix it?
[12:51] <Jork> hello
[12:52] <taurusivy> Spark: I mean there is no corresponding entry in arp cache
[12:53] <atamurad> i've downloaded OOo2.3 zip file, containing bunch of .deb files.
[12:53] <atamurad> now i can't install it with GDebi
[12:53] <atamurad> they depend on each other
[12:54] <atamurad> how do i install them all?
[12:54] <ikonia> atamurad install multiple files together
[12:54] <dooglus> how can I install package qgit in feisty?
[12:54] <taurusivy> POVaddct: I wanna know the ip of a same-subnet host through its mac
[12:54] <ikonia> atamurad are they ubuntu or debian debas
[12:54] <dooglus> !info qgit
[12:54] <MeRodent> Is there an equivalent to sessions manager for ubuntu server?
[12:54] <ubotu> qgit: Qt application for viewing GIT trees. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.5.3-1 (feisty), package size 355 kB, installed size 996 kB
[12:54] <dooglus> !qgit
[12:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about qgit - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:54] <atamurad> i'm not sure, debian i think
[12:54] <ikonia> MeRodent are you using a desktop
[12:54] <ikonia> atamurad: then don't use them
[12:54] <ikonia> MeRodent ubuntu is not debian
[12:54] <taurusivy> Spark:I wanna know the ip of a same-subnet host through its mac
[12:54] <atamurad> is there ubuntu packages?
[12:54] <MeRodent> ikonia, I am but Tasmaniac is using ubuntu server.
[12:55] <POVaddct> taurusivy: if the host in question is in the same subnet, just ping it and then read the arp cache
[12:55] <ikonia> MeRodent sessionas are desktop related
[12:55] <POVaddct> taurusivy: or is this not what you want?
[12:55] <MeRodent> ikonia, is there a startup script somewhere?
[12:55] <ikonia> MeRodent start up for what ?
[12:55] <Tasmaniac> MeRodent, need to do it in both (desktop and server)
[12:55] <ikonia> atamurad have a look
[12:56] <MeRodent> Tasmaniac, well you can do it using system prefs sessions for desktop.
[12:56] <Akatemik> How can ubuntu lose the screen configuration? Effect is that only 640x400 is selectable as resolution.
[12:56] <MeRodent> ikonia, to run a command on start.
[12:56] <ikonia> MeRodent yeah, use an init script
[12:56] <Akatemik> I read the FAQ and am now trying to restore, I'm just wondering what happened
[12:56] <ikonia> Akatemik have you done a kernel/driver updte ?
[12:56] <taurusivy> POVaddct: I only have its mac addr , can I ping it ??
[12:57] <Tasmaniac> how do you get Kerberos tickets automatically everytime the user logs on (so they/I dont have to run kinit)
[12:57] <Xero> What's the GTK equivalent of qgit?
[12:57] <ikonia> taurusivy can't really ping mac
[12:57] <MeRodent> ikonia, so where are init scripts kept?
[12:57] <Akatemik> ikonia: No. And it seems that simply killing X restored everything...
[12:57] <Akatemik> Odd
[12:57] <ikonia> MeRodent /etc/init.d
[12:57] <ikonia> !upstart >MeRodent
[12:57] <taurusivy> ikonia: yeah, I know
[12:57] <ikonia> Akatemik check the date stamp on your xorg.conf
[12:57] <Akatemik> Well, that was simple.
[12:57] <taurusivy> ikonia: so how can i get its ip/
[12:57] <ikonia> taurusivy then why did you ask if you can ping it if you knew ?
[12:57] <ikonia> 12:22 < taurusivy> ikonia: yeah, I know
[12:57] <POVaddct> taurusivy: no. but you could ping the broadcast address of the net and see if the host answers it
[12:57] <Tasmaniac> MeRodent, that faq is apt for you :)
[12:57] <ikonia> oops
[12:58] <ikonia> taurusivy speak to the guy who runs the switch its plugged into
[12:58] <taurusivy> ikonia: I mean i know " can't really ping mac"
[12:58] <Delirium> Hey people, could anyone tell me if i could restore the installed drivers to standard? I tried updating my sound card driver but i cant log in and boot it up anymore, it just says "session lasted less then 10 seconds" and logs me out again.
[12:58] <ikonia> Delirium that shouldn't be a sound problem. The desktop runs without sound
[12:59] <ikonia> Delirium check the gdm.log
[12:59] <dooglus> how dangerous is it to install a gutsy package into feisty?
[12:59] <ikonia> dooglus very
[12:59] <dooglus> is it safer to build from source?
[12:59] <Delirium> Ikonia how do i do that with the console?
[12:59] <ikonia> dooglus neither
[12:59] <taurusivy> ikonia: that's brilliant. that's our lab switch, no one really operate it
[12:59] <ikonia> Delirium vi gdm.log
[12:59] <POVaddct> taurusivy: like this: sudo ping -c 1 -b <IP_ADDRESS> ; cat /proc/net/arp
[12:59] <Delirium> Ikonia thanks ill try that brb.
[12:59] <ikonia> taurusivy ahhh thats a problem then
[12:59] <dooglus> ikonia: I'm trying to install 'qgit', but the repository dependencies are messed up
[12:59] <ikonia> dooglus which repo ?
[01:00] <Kachna> sh1t,can't play mp3 :P any idea,why xine doesn't want to do it? :P
[01:00] <jaggz1> other prog got sound dev?
[01:00] <ikonia> Kachna don't use bad language please, its totally uncalled for
[01:00] <taurusivy> POVaddct: i ping <IP_ADDRESS>, and how can i have the ip of the mac-known host?
[01:00] <dooglus> ikonia: feisty + feisty-backports
[01:00] <Kachna> ikonia: k sry,just got shocked :P music=my life O:-)
[01:01] <ikonia> dooglus are you using fesity as the os ?
[01:01] <dooglus> ikonia: I never use any unofficial repos.  yes, I'm running feisty
[01:01] <POVaddct> taurusivy: all hosts in the subnet should answer to the broadcast ping
[01:01] <ikonia> dooglus join #ubutnu+1
[01:01] <POVaddct> taurusivy: so you get the mac/ip coupling from the answer packets
[01:01] <ikonia> ok - meeting
[01:01] <Kachna> jaggz1: nope, 1) alsa seems to work for more apps at a time, but however 2) ogg is played ok
[01:01] <dooglus> ikonia: I'm all on my own in there :)
[01:02] <POVaddct> taurusivy: but you need to specify the -b option if you want to ping the broadcast address
[01:02] <Spark> taurusivy: maybe you want arp pijng
[01:02] <Spark> arp ping
[01:02] <Vorbote> taurusivy: and you can use arp -n to fond out the mac addresses arp -n prints a table (read the man page for all the flags).
[01:02] <dooglus> ikonia: why +1?  feisty is +0 isn't it?
[01:02] <POVaddct> Spark: arping still needs a ip address
[01:02] <POVaddct> Spark: it cannot "ping" a mac address
[01:04] <taurusivy> OK, guys. I will try that. thanks
[01:06] <POVaddct> lbh zvtug jnag gb gel rggrepnc
[01:06] <twosouls82> I tried using "Groups" in my virtual hosts, the server starts but the files aren't servable... could someone point me in the right direction?
[01:06] <twosouls82> (apache2 that is)
[01:08] <dooglus> ikonia: what's the best way for me to get qgit installed then?  the feisty package is broken, and gutsy and source are too dangerous?
[01:08] <Pingviller> anyone know a good apache 2 admin tool?
[01:09] <Pingviller> with GUI :P
[01:10] <snadge> i think gparted just crashed resizing a reiserfs partition.. what should i do? :P
[01:10] <erUSUL> dooglus: i compiled it in feisty without much problem (the 1.x qt3 based version)
[01:10] <snadge> i booted off the livecd, and it kept trying to mount the partition
[01:10] <dooglus> erUSUL: I got the gutsy source package, and am compiling that
[01:11] <snadge> so i unmounted it from a terminal.. ran the resize command it got part way through, then nautilus pops up and its mounted again.. ack.. now gparted is just doing nothing :(
[01:11] <dooglus> erUSUL: the qgit in feisty conflicts with the git in feisty - it's too old, apparently
[01:11] <erUSUL> dooglus: i compile git myself form its git repo :D to track vanilla kernel
[01:12] <snadge> do i force close gparted or what? im freaking out here :P
[01:13] <erUSUL> snadge: do you have valuable data in that partition? do you have a backup? reiserfs is famous for being quite fragile
[01:15] <dooglus> erUSUL: OK, I see
[01:16] <erUSUL> dooglus: sudo apt-get build-dep git-core and then dl the tarball from it's web site...
[01:16] <matzino> what's the main difference between raiser and ext2?
[01:16] <matzino> what's the main difference between raiser and ext3?
[01:17] <dooglus> matzino: everything
[01:17] <matzino> but the main?
[01:17] <_gigu_> hey guys
[01:17] <erUSUL> matzino: to much for saying on irc
[01:17] <matzino> i mean... if i should to choose
[01:17] <dooglus> matzino: reiserfs is one filesystem, ext[23]  is another - they have no common code
[01:17] <Pingviller> anyone know a good apache 2 admin tool?
[01:17] <snadge> its all good .. tragedy averted.. even though gparted crashed, and i had to force quit it.. the partition is still mountable and it has been resized, remarkable ;)
[01:17] <Pingviller> with GUI :P
[01:17] <_gigu_> what channel should I use to get some help on HIBERNATION
[01:17] <_gigu_> ?
[01:18] <gregshallard> _gigu, what do you want to know?
[01:18] <dooglus> matzino: I used reiserfs for years without any problem.  People kept telling me it was dangerous, and that its fsck tool was broken.  Now I use ext3.  The only difference I notice is that ext3 takes a minute or two to mount every time I boot, whereas reiserfs was instant.
[01:19] <erUSUL> _gigu_: try #tux-on-ice
[01:19] <matzino> okis one reason, thanks
[01:19] <dooglus> matzino: also, I guess development & maintenance of reiserfs is kind of slowed at the moment as well
[01:20] <_gigu_> well, my problem is that Hibernation doesn't work on my Laptop, I have information on Suspend. When I turn on laptop it just starts from begining
[01:20] <_gigu_> like new start
[01:20] <gregshallard> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=471855&highlight=Suspend+help
[01:20] <_gigu_> instead of re-hibertnating
[01:20] <matzino> well but ext3 its growing up faster than raiser isn't it?
[01:21] <gregshallard> _gigu, you running feisty?
[01:21] <_gigu_> yes
[01:21] <salty> is there a GNU file extension for books " .ogg to .mp3 like .pdf to ?"
[01:21] <gregshallard> Check out that link I just posted.
[01:21] <erUSUL> dooglus: well the main issue with reiserfs[34]  this days is that wirh H. Reiser on jail and suse quiting using it by default it may be "abandoned" in the near future
[01:21] <dooglus> matzino: mr. reiser is in prison at the moment, awaiting trial for the murder of his wife
[01:21] <matzino> oh!

[01:30] <spyteman> i think i'm already using alsa tho, what should i do?
[01:30] <jrib> motio: two questions: what version of ubuntu are you using?  can you pastebin the errors you are getting?
[01:30] <jrib> spyteman: try to keep what you say on a single line, or else the channel becomes too busy

[01:34] <knevcher> hello
[01:34] <snadge> gcc: unrecognized option '-version'
[01:35] <USMarine> if it has gcc
[01:35] <USMarine> proly stdio is there also
[01:35] <Vorbote> snadge: install the build-essential metapackage
[01:35] <magical_trevsky> snadge, if you have it, it'll be at /usr/include/stdio.h
[01:35] <snadge> im on livecd?
[01:35] <magical_trevsky> but you prolly need build-essential as Vorbote said
[01:35] <Pingviller> anyone know a good apache 2 admin tool?
[01:35] <USMarine> snadge how the hell should i know
[01:35] <motio> tank this is new  to me i will try

[01:36] <[nrx] >  Bonaparte a bit more info would be good.
[01:36] <Bonaparte> Since then the computer won't boot up
[01:36] <drake285> i need some help
[01:36] <Bonaparte> How can I fix it?

[01:36] <USMarine> drake285 like 911 ?
[01:36] <Bonaparte> The commands he had tried was, apt-get install quota
[01:36] <Bonaparte> touch /quota.user /quota.group
[01:36] <snadge> what!?!? i've just booted into ubuntu 64 bit.. and ran this program and got this result
[01:36] <spyteman> Bonaparte can you boot from cd? ubuntu live-cd?
[01:37] <snadge> Size of int: 4
[01:37] <jrib> motio: one thing I noticed is it recommends doing 'sudo passwd root' to create a root password so you can use 'su -'.  This is unnecessary.  Instead of 'su -', just do 'sudo -i'.  You do not need to set a root password
[01:37] <Bonaparte> Yes, I can
[01:37] <Bonaparte> spyteman, do you want to boot from the CD now?
[01:37] <snadge> why is sizeof(int) 4 in ubuntu64? :P
[01:37] <jrib> Bonaparte: try to keep what you say on a single line, or else the channel becomes too busy
[01:37] <Bonaparte> jrib, sorry about it
[01:37] <USMarine> Bonaparte , enter is not punctuation. Please don't press return until you've finished typing your question, it's annoying to see multiple lines for one question, and hard to follow.
[01:37] <motio> tank you very match for your help
[01:38] <Bonaparte> USMarine, really sorry about it. I apologize for the inconvenience

[01:40] <sam__> How could I configure SMTP to work with the PHP mail function?
[01:40] <magical_trevsky> spyteman, or run sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset
[01:40] <spyteman> magical_trevsky should i never go >81 with anything regarding sound? why is that?
[01:40] <magical_trevsky> spyteman, well, 81 is just a nice value I use :p On alot of cards, if the PCM volume is too high the sound is clipped
[01:41] <magical_trevsky> which is what I imagine you're experiencing.. you or some app has made it too high
[01:41] <drake285> when i activite skydome in beril then beryl shutsdown
[01:41] <spyteman> it was at 87
[01:41] <[nrx] > drake285:
[01:41] <magical_trevsky> spyteman, ah, does it sound any different now it's a bit lower?

[01:42] <Bonaparte> Can somebody help me get the computer to boot?
[01:42] <[nrx] > Bonaparte: how far does it get|
[01:42] <[nrx] > ?*
[01:43] <spyteman> i would say it's back to normal again magical_trevsky ... but when i play an audio cd in rhythmbox, it still sounds really bad
[01:43] <Bonaparte> [nrx] , it shows lot of failed services while booting
[01:43] <magical_trevsky> spyteman, perhaps rhythmbox is turning up the pcm volume instead of the master when you use its volume controls.. that could be the problem?
[01:43] <Bonaparte> I get the login prompt in the command mode
[01:43] <[nrx] > Bonaparte: how far does it get?
[01:44] <[nrx] > ok
[01:44] <spyteman> maybe.. how do i fix it?
[01:44] <Hakan[TT] > how to get swedish  to work in vim ?
[01:44] <nanonyme> in latin1 or utf-8?
[01:44] <Hakan[TT] > latin1
[01:44] <Bonaparte> I can login as root but not as user. When I try login as user it says unable to cd to '/home/user'
[01:44] <Hakan[TT] > or humm i think ubunto use uft-8 deafult
[01:45] <nanonyme> nice, it would probably have worked fine with utf-8 considering it's the ubuntu default charset
[01:45] <nanonyme> (at least i think it worked for me)
[01:45] <_freedom_> Hi folks
[01:45] <Hakan[TT] >  work in comamnd line perfect. but when i cut and paste things with vim its getter corrupted with
[01:45] <[nrx] > Bonaparte: try "quotaoff"
[01:46] <nanonyme> ah
[01:46] <nanonyme> Hakan[TT] , program is using a different charset than vim?
[01:46] <nanonyme> that is, the program to and from you're pasting
[01:46] <Bonaparte> I uninstalled Quota, now it says Quota command not found
[01:46] <Hakan[TT] > cut and paste from widnows over putty
[01:46] <Hakan[TT] > if i do that to command line is works ,, only in vim it dont
[01:46] <[nrx] > Bonaparte: edit your /etc/fstab file
[01:46] <_freedom_> Can someone look into System>Preferences>Sessions and under tab Current session look for metacity line (i need parameters)
[01:47] <nanonyme> do you have putty set to UTF-8?
[01:47] <[nrx] > Bonaparte: and remove any references to usrquota and grpquota
[01:47] <nanonyme> do you have LC_CTYPE set properly?
[01:47] <nanonyme> also http://www.maruko.ca/i18n/
[01:47] <Hakan[TT] > but why dose the command promt get  correct then ?
[01:47] <[nrx] > Bonaparte: after rebotting, you _should_ be okay
[01:47] <spyteman> magical_trevsky alsamixer shows a change in master volume when i touch the volume icon in sys tray, but it shows no change anywhere when i try rhythmbox one
[01:47] <autodidakt> hi, i just wanted to no where to deaktivate "vertical sync" in the nvidia settings
[01:47] <[nrx] > rebooting*
[01:47] <magical_trevsky> spyteman, ah, weird
[01:47] <nanonyme> Hakan[TT] , poke, the above link includes vim utf-8 guide
[01:47] <Bonaparte> [nrx] , I already tried that. There are no references to grpquota and usrquota
[01:47] <autodidakt> know*
[01:47] <Hakan[TT] > aa  i18n rings a bel for me
[01:48] <magical_trevsky> spyteman, I've never used rhythmbox though I'm afraid, so I dunno what else to suggest :<
[01:48] <Hakan[TT] > thx alot nanoyme
[01:48] <[nrx] > Bonaparte: are you getting any error messsages as well as the failed services?
[01:48] <MeRodent> autodidakt, in x server xvideo settings
[01:48] <Bonaparte> [nrx] , yes, lot of services fail while the computing is booting. klogd for example
[01:48] <_freedom_> everyone too busy heh
[01:49] <[nrx] > Bonaparte: and there is no reference to quotas in the fstab at all?
[01:49] <_freedom_> Can someone look into System>Preferences>Sessions and under tab Current session look for metacity line (i need parameters)
[01:49] <spyteman> magical_trevsky could it be that the cd is bad? i burned it from within rhythmbox when i think i was already experiencing these sound problems.. maybe the bad settings affected mp3 conversion for the cd burning?
[01:49] <autodidakt> MeRodent hm i dont find it sry
[01:49] <Bonaparte> [nrx] , absolutely none
[01:49] <autodidakt> MeRodent sync to vblack seems to be something different
[01:49] <[nrx] > Bonaparte: 2 mins
[01:49] <Bonaparte> [nrx] , sure. Thanks for the help. I will wait
[01:49] <MeRodent> autodidakt, I found that changing settings from default made no difference anyway.
[01:50] <autodidakt> MeRodent: I dont understand sry
[01:51] <spyteman> lol magical_trevsky the cd is bad... will burn a new one and try again :(
[01:51] <_freedom_> Please?
[01:51] <autodidakt> MeRodent: are u talking about sync to vblack?
[01:51] <Devo> I used WInecfg to change the driver settings from OSS to ALSA, now when I try and start Teamspeak with wine I get this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38106/
[01:51] <spyteman> but thanks for help, i did an alsa reset :)
[01:51] <pjbelgium> who can help me with some beginner wime/crossover questions
[01:51] <[nrx] > Bonaparte: how did you uninstall quota? - are any of the quota commands still available?
[01:51] <Devo> audio settings*
[01:52] <MeRodent> autodidakt, sinc to vblank should be the verticle sync as vblank is the verticle timing.
[01:52] <Bonaparte> [nrx] , I uninstalled it from Aptitude.
[01:52] <[nrx] > Bonaparte: so it's only been since you uninstalled it that you're having problems?

[01:55] <Suvoroff>  ?
[01:55] <autodidakt> MeRodent: i tryed that as well
[01:55] <xerxe> got that. i'll be more carefull next time
[01:55] <MeRodent> _freedom_, you might want to try #ubuntu-effects
[01:55] <Suvoroff>    ?
[01:56] <MeRodent> xerxe, are you running gparted or sudo gparted?
[01:56] <[nrx] > Bonaparte: can you mount / at all?
[01:56] <Bonaparte> [nrx] , I don't if I can do that. I can login as root at the command prompt
[01:56] <moDumass> hey all, im using blender and one of the features involves alt-rmb but when you do that it brings up a window command and the workaround is mentioned as editing (Applications > System Tools > Configuration Editor) but that menu item isnt in my applications system tools menu.. any ideas?

[01:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sex - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:56] <_freedom_> why ubuntu effects... I just want someone to tell me default parameters for metacity in gnome session
[01:57] <xerxe> i guess is gparted. i run it through the desktop icon
[01:57] <Bonaparte> [nrx] , how do I know if I can mount /?
[01:57] <MeRodent> Devo,  what do you expect from a bot?
[01:57] <zetheroo> anyone else here from Australia?
[01:57] <MeRodent> xerxe, did it ask for a password?
[01:57] <slap> whats up newbies!!!
[01:57] <Devo> MeRodent, Uhhh... well, robots of the future should be able to do a lot.
[01:57] <DjViper> zetheroo: /who *.au
[01:57] <[nrx] > well, if you can login, it must be mounted
[01:58] <zetheroo> DjViper : whats that?
[01:58] <DjViper> zetheroo: why do you ask?
[01:58] <Devo> MeRodent, Robots in the future will be running on Linux.
[01:58] <spyteman> xerxe you can drag application launcher icons in e.g. gedit (texteditors) and it will show you the command
[01:58] <xerxe> no password required. because it's just hangs at the scanning devices part. never got beyond that. iwant to repartition the linux hdd
[01:58] <zetheroo> DjViper: well I am looking for the Ubuntu community in Australia
[01:58] <Bonaparte> [nrx] , what can we do next to fix it?
[01:58] <danielro> hola

[01:59] <MeRodent> xerxe, try running it sudo gparted - should ask for your password before starting. It may need su privleges.

[02:22] <thirdalbum> hwilde: Right-click the CD in Gnome, click "Copy Disc" and set the destination as "File Image"
[02:22] <LjL> Otaimer: depends what driver.
[02:22] <thirdalbum> Ljl: Thanks
[02:22] <MeRodent> xerxe, no problems detecting ntfs or fat32
[02:23] <xerxe> yes, but those partitions are read only. probably here  is the problem

[02:23] <aLeSD> hi all ... I have a wireless card that need rt73.ko. How to install it in ubuntu ?
[02:23] <sean__> MeRodent, I have tried it , the same problem
[02:23] <hwilde> thirdalbum, man that is so obvious, but I am not used to windows-like right clicking on my computer.  I looked through every option in all of hte programs like serpentine and soundjuicer
[02:23] <MeRodent> xerxe, gparted doesn't use fstab. It directly reads partition tables so readonly is not an issue. Ie works at a lower level.

[02:28] <hwilde> Hakan[TT] , the file runs on boot.  put an echo line in there and test it
[02:29] <Hakan[TT] > yhaa but i dotn run if ya dont have chmod +x first..
[02:29] <MeRodent> hwilde, should rc.local be in /etc or /etc/init.d ?
[02:29] <LjL> well it does for me, maybe they've changed that in feisty
[02:29] <hwilde> Hakan[TT] , /etc/rc.local runs automatically !!!
[02:29] <Hakan[TT] > udner etc
[02:29] <LjL> uhm, i have both
[02:29] <LjL> ah
[02:29] <LjL> it should be in /etc/rc.local
[02:30] <LjL>  /etc/init.d/rc.local is simply the thing that runs it

[02:30] <Hakan[TT] > hwilde dident run for me... my export values was never added.. iamtesting now if it works with chmod +x
[02:30] <hwilde> Hakan[TT] , put an echo "test rc.local" >> ~/logfile      see if it writes ot the log
[02:31] <Hakan[TT] > humm still nto working... :( with my command ...
[02:31] <LjL> Hakan[TT] , i'm not so sure that rc.local can hold exported variables
[02:31] <Hakan[TT] > export LANG=en_US
[02:31] <hwilde> Hakan[TT] , rc.local runs before a bash session is opened so it won't take effect
[02:31] <LjL> one usually puts exported variables into his own .bashrc

[02:33] <axeki>  hi, I just started using Ubuntu Studio few days ago and I love it, except .. i can't get any sound from flash in FireFox. I tried loads of sollutions .. nothing works. Is there light at the end of the tunnel, anyone know about a FF update in the future that deals with this ?
[02:34] <axeki> is there a sollution at all at this time ? thanx in advance
[02:34] <jatt> solution?
[02:34] <Scarey> axeki: I doubt it's a FF problem...
[02:34] <Bigs> quit

[02:35] <hwilde> Hakan[TT] , that is where i have mine
[02:35] <axeki> well, im not sure, some sound setting in FF was set to off, but I guess it's a flash prob
[02:35] <highoctanejg> Does anyone know where I can find the 2.6.15 magma headers. I am running an install that needs them. I have Feisty Fawn.

[02:44] <LjL> !language
[02:44] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:44] <LjL> damian: it's a kernel with that timer set to 1000hz instead of 250.
[02:44] <damian> does that mean my current kernel is only running at %50 cpu speed
[02:44] <LjL> meh, no
[02:44] <damian> 25%..

[02:45] <damian> see...i know linux well but...what?
[02:45] <damian> never heard the term
[02:45] <LjL> damian: it just means the system timer clock ticks 1000 times per second rather than 250 times per second, basically

[02:55] <eifzon> hmm, how can I install the ati driver for my Dell latitude d600? :)

[02:55] <eifzon> Scarey, just any that works :P
[02:55] <Scarey> eifzon: system -> administration -> restricted drivers
[02:56] <eifzon> ok
[02:56] <Scarey> eifzon: well.. I should work out of the box..
[02:56] <Scarey> eifzon: but there are some problems with 7.04 and ATI cards.. use the alt. install CD then.
[02:56] <eifzon> I installed ubuntu from livecd

[02:57] <eifzon> yes ofc
[02:57] <LjL> sams: perhaps sudo apt-get remove squid
[02:57] <Scarey> eifzon: why do you want to install other drivers then?

[02:59] <LjL> sigh
[02:59] <omgoose> hey all
[02:59] <LjL> Scarey: maybe that would work if one had installed squid from source

[03:00] <omgoose> so what does squid do?
[03:01] <Scarey> it's a proxy.
[03:01] <LjL> something one should even remotely think of using if, like sams, he's clueless
[03:01] <LjL> shouldn't

[03:02] <omgoose> lol, yeah, I had to install ati/xgl/compiz like 4 times
[03:02] <omgoose> but i got it
[03:02] <omgoose> and now my desktop is smexy
[03:02] <LjL> Scarey, no, not when the stuff involves server stuff that's accessible from the Internet and can (and will) turn your machine into an attack proxy for script kiddies
[03:03] <Scarey> LjL: But I agree.. most homeusers probably won't need a proxy

[03:36] <fiXXXerMet> Is it OK to remove other read privileges from /etc/crontab?  If I put the mysql password in there, I don't want normal users to be able to read it.
[03:36] <keroro> ^^
[03:36] <fiXXXerMet> -rw-r----- is what I want
[03:37] <Tomcat_> fiXXXerMet: You can, because it should only be read by root... but you shouldn't do it, you should use "the right way" for storing mysql passwords ;)
[03:37] <erUSUL> keroro: have you read the ubotu msg? disabling ipv6 sometimes speed things up
[03:37] <Tomcat_> fiXXXerMet: Is this for a mysql backup?

[03:38] <nikitis> Question.  I'm running a Dell Laptop, and I wish to get the front sound buttons to work with a different sound option in the sound preferences.   Currently they are linked to the "Master" sound volume control.    The master doesn't seem to affect this volume control  How can I remedy this?  Anyone have anything I could use?
[03:39] <Tomcat_> nikitis: You can change what is controlled in the audio settings.
[03:39] <nikitis> Tomcat_, where?  I've looked under sound preferences
[03:39] <Tomcat_> nikitis: Bottom setting... mixer track or something (German here)
[03:40] <fiXXXerMet> Tomcat_: Should I create an actual script (like bash) and have th epasswords in there, and cron call that file, or is there a better way?
[03:40] <Tomcat_> fiXXXerMet: http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-9592_11-6051389.html

[03:58] <morgajel> hey guys
[03:59] <morgajel> in general, when package foo.1.4.6 exists in feisty, and 1.4.9 shows up in gutsy, will 1.4.9 ever make it back down to feisty?
[03:59] <bluefox83> morgajel, possibly later on with backports
[03:59] <morgajel> alright
[04:00] <wastrel> but don't count on it :]
[04:00] <wastrel> unless it's a high-profile package
[04:00] <morgajel> bluefox83: I'm trying to figure out if one of my sf projects should bite the bullet and pull debs from gutsy, or just sit with the older packages until 1.4.9 makes it to backports
[04:00] <morgajel> wastrel: ah
[04:01] <wastrel> morgajel: you can browse through the existing backports repos to get an idea of what normally gets backported

[04:12] <LjL> so do i, but i wouldn't say it's similar to mirc, and it doesn't have that many config options
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> allen: Yes it is... ask in there how their installer works
[04:12] <LjL> KvIRC is as full of config options as it can get
[04:12] <RandomUsr> manu_ that's very odd, it may be a bad cd... did you run a crc?
[04:12] <allen> jack_ where ? :-/
[04:12] <silk_sword> LjL: after installing i tried it b4 but i cant figure it out plz guide me what shall i do ??

[04:13] <manu_> RandomUsr: yes
[04:13] <LjL> silk_sword: if you can't configure a proxy server, you shouldn't be using one, as it's a dangerous thing to use incorrectly (dangerous for your computer and for you, if someone exploits it to do something illegal)
[04:13] <RandomUsr> well WTF
[04:13] <RandomUsr> manu_: please hold
[04:13] <LjL> silk_sword: "dpkg -L squid | grep doc " will show you a few documentation files about it, and so should "man squid"
[04:13] <spyteman> thanks Jack_Sparrow, will give it a shot... did you check any other clients with a similar feature list? i really want a customised irc client like mirc =)
[04:14] <silk_sword> ok

[04:14] <gilster> hey i need some help with firefox.....i am getting random crashes
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> spyteman: I use kvirc in Windows
[04:14] <LjL> spyteman: i think kvirc is the closest thing to that besides from xchat. of course, yeah, it's a KDE application, but it tends to not follow many kde standards and afaik is quite "themable" and stuff
[04:15] <spyteman> ok i'll try that one aswell :)
[04:15] <xerxe> gilster: update mozilla, contact isp provider
[04:15] <spyteman> LjL xchat did look really weird to me... btw (what) is there a difference between xchat and xchat-gnome?
[04:15] <LjL> spyteman: yes, a lot of difference
[04:15] <LjL> spyteman: xchat-gnome is a severely cut down version of xchat, that looks a bit more "integrated" with gnome
[04:16] <wastrel> xchat gnome is bad mojo
[04:16] <wastrel> avoid it if at all possible
[04:16] <samri> are there any applications what would delete low-rated/unwanted music?

[04:16] <mojo> wastrel: i use xchat gnome ... what of it?
[04:16] <LjL> spyteman: note that many people also tend to use textmode clients, especially irssi
[04:16] <spyteman> LjL what is it that comes with ubuntu (i think it does), xchat-gnome?
[04:16] <manu_> RandomUsr: ok i gonna do that

[04:20] <ilane> sexcopter: yes it's possible
[04:20] <panosru> Flash for linux
[04:21] <panosru> will alien work?
[04:21] <jrib> sexcopter: you can do it manually with the xscreensaver-command and some switch or if the application is not doing it, you can file a bug against it...
[04:21] <zombie_monkey> wastrel: the default xubuntu one
[04:21] <jrib> !flash > panosru (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:21] <wastrel> zombie_monkey: what is you $LANG set to?
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> panosru: not your first choice...
[04:21] <rafaelscj> !alien | panosru
[04:21] <ubotu> panosru: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[04:21] <ilane> sexcopter: i think do you have i fil like /totem/totem.conf
[04:22] <zombie_monkey> wastrel: LANG=C
