[08:43] <Piet> Valentina: if said computer is not a server in production, then forget about my DoS remark
[08:44] <ESEDU> Actionparsnip: how do I check that, cat /dev/sg2?
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> ESEDU: no, i gave the exact command
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> ESEDU: file /dev/sg2
[08:44] <colloguy> xmodmap -e 'keycode 133 = Control_L' should map some button to the left control action, right?
[08:45] <starcannon> ActionParsnip, I have my own mailserver, Boohbah, I had assumed that the notifier had the bits and pieces it needed to check the status of the inbox, otherwise whats the point?
[08:45] <maxagaz> Flannel, i just want to prevent my system from installing new kernel
[08:45] <ESEDU> "file of directory does not exist"
[08:45] <MenZa> starcannon: Sounds like you might want something that queries your server directly.
[08:45] <maxagaz> Flannel, i thought aptitude safe-upgrade would do it
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> starcannon: gotcha, my suggestion is pointless then
[08:45] <swtaarrs> after a recent update, my laptop's touchpad loses all of the configuration information when I restore from suspend (in karmic).  has anyone else run into this?
[08:45] <starcannon> MenZa yes exactly
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> starcannon: what I do is have evolution alltrayed so it runs in the system tray and out of the way
[08:45] <Boohbah> starcannon: like a mail client...
[08:45] <maxagaz> MenZa, there's no easier solution for the kernel ?
[08:46] <MenZa> maxagaz: See what Flannel said
[08:46] <starcannon> ActionParsnip, that what I'll do then
[08:46] <Boohbah> starcannon: so what is wrong with running evolution in the tray? memory usage?
[08:46] <ESEDU> ActionParsnip: /dev/sg2: ERROR: cannot open /dev/sg2 (no such file or directory)
[08:46] <ActionParsnip> starcannon: if you used gmail you can run gmail-notifier
[08:46] <starcannon> Boohbah I think you understand my intention, no point in pointing out the obvious any longer. I'm not looking for troll wars
[08:46] <ActionParsnip> ESEDU: bah, then ive no idea man, sorry
[08:47] <starcannon> ActionParsnip nod, that'd be easy enough as well
[08:47] <ESEDU> ActionParsnip: thanks anyway :)
[08:47] <Boohbah> starcannon: i don't understand, oh well.
[08:47]  * MenZa compiled gnome-gmail-notifier today; finds it better than the packages currently provided in the repos.
[08:47] <chrisbschw> Flannel: Well, you can uninstall them that way, but won't they reappear once you reload? How can you prevent them from being installed with the automatic updates?
[08:47] <Flannel> chrisbschw: What do you mean?  reload what? and what automatic updates are you talking about?
[08:48] <dengx> .
[08:48] <chrisbschw> Flannel: Sorry, the kernel. You said 'remove linux-image-*' to stop the kernel from updating.
[08:48] <Valentina> Piet: Well, it's a home-server but it will be going a lot of hours a day.
[08:48] <Flannel> chrisbschw: No, I said remove the linux-image-* that don't have version numbers in them (such as linux-generic, linux-image-generic, etc)
[08:49] <maxagaz> MenZa, Flannel, it won't be automatically reinstalled by another dummy package like ubuntu-server ?
[08:49] <Flannel> chrisbschw: Those packages (well, linux-generic depends on linux-image-generic) depend on the current kernel, so when they get updated, you get a new kernel version.  If you didn't have those, you wouldn't.  That's how the kernel gets 'updated', even though a new package gets installed
[08:49] <chrisbschw> Flannel: Remove them from where? :) You mean uncheck them every time the update thing pops up, or `aptitude remove linux-generic`?
[08:49] <Flannel> chrisbschw: no, I mean uninstall them from your system via your favorite package manager
[08:49] <MenZa> maxagaz: I honestly don't know; I think Flannel has more expertise on this particular point.
[08:50] <Flannel> maxagaz: no metapackages will depend on the kernel packages
[08:50] <rlee> My mouse keeps shooting off to the corner of the screen at random times, is this known, or is it due to some IR interference?
[08:50] <astechgeek> is your mouse a trackball mouse?
[08:50] <Flannel> maxagaz: (well, except the kernel ones).  ubuntu-desktop, etc don't
[08:50] <glicks> hey is there a way to make the desktop larger then the physical screen so that it scrolls when you move your mouse to the edge?
[08:51] <rlee> No, it's an IR mouse... kind of cheap, like one of those $3 dollars one
[08:51] <maxagaz> MenZa, Flannel, thanks
[08:51] <astechgeek> you could take a qtip and clean the optical sensor
[08:51] <kostkon> Boohbah, i think it has something to do with the evolution devs not wanting to do it
[08:52] <ActionParsnip> glicks: you can use a virtual screen size in xorg.conf and you will get that
[08:52] <RenatoSilva> my internet coonnection is slow in kubuntu virtual box, how to fix it?
[08:53] <rlee> thanks astechgeek, i'll try that

[08:56] <ActionParsnip> U-b-u-n-t-u: is there not  setting under edit -> prefs   where you can set the program associated with different file types?
[08:57] <ActionParsnip> kartook: sudo apt-get --purge remove compiz*; rm -rf ~/.compiz; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove
[08:57] <U-b-u-n-t-u> ActionParsnip, when I go to download the torrent it asked me to browse to find a program to open it I am asking where ktorrent is
[08:57] <kartook> thanks i am going to start now

[08:59] <U-b-u-n-t-u> lol
[08:59] <Valentina> ActionParsnip: There is an option in Nautilus when you right click on a file and then Properties and a tab called "Open with" that let you choose program to open files with by default.
[08:59] <U-b-u-n-t-u> I didnt know which was a command
[08:59] <U-b-u-n-t-u> I thought it was part of the sentence
[08:59] <U-b-u-n-t-u> thanks
[08:59] <ActionParsnip> U-b-u-n-t-u: thats why i use ':' to differentiate sentance from command, its also why I add a big space so the end of the command is clear

[09:01] <Kalessin> Hello, I have installed Karmic everything works but I have a problem : when compiz is on I loose *every* keyboard shortcuts
[09:01] <Valentina> ActionParsnip: There is such an option in Nautilus in my Ubuntu Desktop 9.10 when I right click on a file and choose Properties.
[09:01] <ActionParsnip> kartook: run: ccsm      and in the search box (top left) search for fire
[09:01] <U-b-u-n-t-u> ActionParsnip, if you had said open the terminal and type "which ktorrent" it would have been clear to me
[09:01] <eXeC001er> Please help me. I need /etc/apt/sources.list from Ubuntu 8.10.

[09:02] <ActionParsnip> eXeC001er: oh i see
[09:02] <crud0x> hi
[09:03] <ActionParsnip> eXeC001er: you will find most of those have intrepid repos as its stil supported
[09:03] <ActionParsnip> kartook: try searching for burn
[09:03] <crud0x> some bady can help i try install egit plugint for eclipse and i can't download from the site
[09:03] <kartook> okie
[09:03] <kartook> thanks i ill
[09:04] <ActionParsnip> kartook: make sure you have both compiz-fusion-plugins-extra and compiz-fusion-plugins-main installed
[09:04] <lordganesh> i can't boot windows 7 from grub
[09:04] <kartook> sure
[09:04] <glicks> hey does anyone here use chrome?
[09:04] <Piet> Valentina: as long as you can ensure both good cooling with the server and in the area surrounding the server, no overheating shuld occur. But if you cannot, your strategy looks like a good way to go.
[09:04] <kartook> i am searching on te eGoogle dude
[09:04] <Bear10> Where can I get a copy of rgb.text to but in my X11R6 folder?
[09:04] <glicks> and how does it stack up to ff
[09:05] <sllide> is there a boost 1.39 package?
[09:05] <sllide> i cant find one :/
[09:06] <lordganesh> i have ubuntu and xp first ..then i installed windows 7 .then i installed grub from live cd .. but it can't boot windows 7
[09:06] <Piet> Valentina: if the server does not have a BMC/LOM nor is attached to a network accessible power strip, and you want to be able to power it up again remotely, keep in mind that you could also use wake on lan or wake on (modem ring), but make sure you can also trigger this from within your own/local network.
[09:06] <ActionParsnip> glicks: works great, uses waaaay less ram even under flash, ff is one of my least liked browsers
[09:07] <ktzkk> does anyone can browse xml format webpage using firefox ?
[09:07] <glicks> hmm
[09:07] <katakbuta> actually guys..how do we kill all pid of processes that contain "-port 55555" in ps aux?
[09:07] <glicks> so chrome would prolly be better on my netbook eh?
[09:08] <glicks> does chrom have adblock and stuff like ff?
[09:08] <ActionParsnip> glicks: I cant tell you that, try it yourself and test
[09:08] <ActionParsnip> glicks: not sure, i dont use that stuff
[09:08] <katakbuta> ps aux | grep -v grep | grep "-port 55555" <-- kill all this processes
[09:08] <ActionParsnip> glicks: my guess is no as its fairly new, i'm not overly sure though as I havent looked into that stuff
[09:10] <eXeC001er> How can I find out what version my UBUNTU?
[09:11] <ActionParsnip> eXeC001er: lsb_release -a
[09:11] <eXeC001er> ActionParsnip: thanks
[09:11] <gehengwang> where can i find my hardware drivers information ?
[09:12] <gehengwang> i mean    some file
[09:12] <Kalessin> I have a problem on karmic, when compiz is on I loose every keyboard shortcuts, any hint ?
[09:12] <lordganesh> is there anybody to help this my fourth time
[09:12] <lordganesh> i have ubuntu and xp first ..then i installed windows 7 .then i installed grub from live cd .. but it can't boot windows 7
[09:13] <kartook> i think this will work fro me
[09:13] <kartook> sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-namager compiz-fusion-plugins-extra and compiz-fusion-plugins-main
[09:13] <ActionParsnip> Kalessin: compiz has its own keyboard gumf which may conflict
[09:13] <kartook> sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-namager compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compiz-fusion-plugins-main
[09:13] <indus> lordganesh: hi
[09:13] <Piet> katakbuta: for pid in $(ps aux | grep -v grep | awk '/-port 55555/ {print $2}'); do kill $pid; done
[09:13] <Kalessin> ActionParsnip, I understand that but compiz shortcuts doesn't works either
[09:13] <indus> lordganesh: which version of ubuntu?
[09:14] <ActionParsnip> kartook: there used to be an unsupported plugin pack as well with some nice effects, like sonw, but it doesnt appear to be in karmic yet
[09:14] <lordganesh> indus: 9.10
[09:14] <Kalessin> I mean for example with alt+click I can't move a window
[09:14] <ActionParsnip> Kalessin: i'd ask in #compiz
[09:14] <katakbuta> Piet: thanks ;)
[09:14] <indus> lordganesh: so you have windows 7 and ubuntu? also xp?
[09:14] <ActionParsnip> Kalessin: compiz breaks stuff like that good
[09:14] <kartook> i am using ubuntu 9.04 64 bit
[09:14] <kartook> my wife love to see this effect
[09:14] <kartook> but now its not worknig
[09:14] <lordganesh> indus: no i replace windows 7 instead of xp
[09:14] <kartook> need to clean and reinstall
[09:15] <ActionParsnip> kartook: you need to install and configure video drivers to get the effects
[09:15] <indus> lordganesh: hmm so do you see windows 7 option in boot menu
[09:15] <kartook> All drivers are done
[09:15] <Piet> katakbuta: but note that the string your grep for could be anywhere within the 'ps aux' output. so a script called ~/bin/foo-port\ 55555 would match, too
[09:15] <kartook> and i have 1 Gb video drivers
[09:15] <kartook> how to search and remove the all related compiz files
[09:15] <kartook> command i need
[09:16] <lordganesh> indus: no i see previous menu with windows xp in boot options
[09:16] <kartook> from all the drivers config,installed hiddenfiles
[09:16] <kartook> i an very new to this
[09:16] <kartook> all
[09:16] <indus> lordganesh: which live cd do u have
[09:16] <ActionParsnip> kartook: sudo apt-get --purge remove compiz*; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; rm -rf ~/.compiz
[09:16] <indus> lordganesh: do you have an older one?
[09:16] <lordganesh> indus: 9.10
[09:16] <ActionParsnip> kartook: if you dont have 3D accelleration, you won't get compiz
[09:16] <lordganesh> indus: i have older one too
[09:16] <indus> lordganesh: ok what steps did you do with live cd to repair grub
[09:16] <kartook> i have 3 D enabled
[09:17] <kartook> nvida 1 GB
[09:17] <kartook> i can see the Cube and all
[09:17] <ActionParsnip> kartook: good
[09:17] <indus> kartook: sudo apt-get remove --purge compiz
[09:17] <ActionParsnip> kartook: nice, nvidia is super supported
[09:17] <kartook> only matter i need to enable the if i close the windows thats should burn
[09:17] <lordganesh> indus: i followed this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[09:17] <Valentina> Piet: Well, thanks for advice. I'm will be able to manually restart the server if it shuts down. I have to take that chance. I just don't want my apartment to burn down. Therefore I was thinking of a way to shut the server down if it is getting to hot.
[09:18] <kartook> now iam mremoved all
[09:18] <kartook> no compiz
[09:18] <kartook> nothing
[09:18] <ActionParsnip> kartook: if the plugin isnt in the packs then you will need to find out another way to install it
[09:18] <kartook> what is the way ?
[09:18] <indus> lordganesh: thats for old grub, you need the older live cd for that
[09:18] <kartook> just type the full line all installables what i need for that
[09:18] <ActionParsnip> kartook: whomever packaged the plugins obviosly removed it
[09:18] <kartook> like sudo apt-get install .......?
[09:18] <indus> lordganesh: boot with older live cd,and follow some steps
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> kartook: how do you mean?
[09:19] <lordganesh> indus: then what is way for new grub
[09:19] <kartook> can i run this command now
[09:19] <kartook> ?
[09:19] <kartook> sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-namager compiz-fusion-plugins-extra and compiz-fusion-plugins-main
[09:19] <indus> lordganesh: screw new grub, ill help you restore with old one
[09:19] <kartook> any thing need to Add on this
[09:19] <kartook> ?
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> kartook: sure
[09:19] <starcannon> burn is standard for compiz, and can be enabled using compizconfig-settings-manager available by that name in Synaptic Package Manager.
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> kartook: that will give you compiz
[09:19] <indus> lordganesh: ok with new grub, just run sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[09:20] <kartook> what about the fire effect
[09:20] <indus> lordganesh: did you try?
[09:20] <kartook> E: Couldn't find package compizconfig-settings-namager
[09:20] <kartook> haa error
[09:20] <lordganesh> indus: should i try from live cd
[09:20] <indus> lordganesh: yes
[09:20] <Piet> Valentina: pretty much all computers nowadays will power off themselves if they overheat.
[09:20] <indus> lordganesh: i suggest using old grub
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> kartook: you can't type
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> Its: compizconfig-settings-manager
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> not: compizconfig-settings-namager
[09:21] <indus> lordganesh: ok first lets try with new, boot 9.10 live cd
[09:21] <Piet> Valentina: but of course it's better to do it by software and have a clean shutdown.
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> namager isnt even a word ;)
[09:21] <suigeneris> how do I burn an ISO using the command line?
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> !burning
[09:21] <starcannon> ack sorry for the typo
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> suigeneris: wodim
[09:21] <kartook> can i try from synaptic manaer
[09:21] <kartook> manager *
[09:22] <lordganesh> indus: tell me all deatailed step , because i have to boot on same pc
[09:22] <Valentina> Piet: Yeah, I hope so, just wanted to be sure it really will adding a script that also will make the computer shutdown.
[09:22] <Piet> Valentina: Assuming you have your lm-sensors configuration well tuned for your hardware, you could just have a cron job run every 5 minutes (or even less) to run sensors and grep for 'ALARM', and shutdown in the event that you find this word.
[09:22] <starcannon> kartook thats likely the best place to start
[09:22] <colt> #reddit
[09:22] <indus> lordganesh: hmm
[09:22] <ActionParsnip> kartook: if you wish, it will achieve the same end, command line is just quicker
[09:22] <indus> lordganesh: boot live cd and come back here
[09:22] <kartook> surte
[09:22] <kartook> i wish
[09:23] <starcannon> Anyone here know an active vintage audio channel?(I know off topic, but I'd really like to find one with people in it)
[09:23] <indus> lordganesh: ok nvm write this down then
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> kartook: sure it is, you dont have to load a silly gui, yu can just get on with installing whats needed
[09:23] <indus> lordganesh: this is for older live cd
[09:23] <kartook> any way i started installation
[09:23] <kartook> let we see
[09:23] <Dravekx> i cant get vsftpd to start
[09:24] <Valentina> Piet: Yeah, I guess. I have red some info about that kind of script doing that. The problem is I already having ALARM probably due to the config settings. But if I only get the last line of sensors command output then I will get the system and processors temp.
[09:24] <indus> lordganesh: once booted, open a terminal and type sudo grub , then type find /boot/grub/stage1 , then enter this value in command root   (hdx,y), and finally setup  (hd0)
[09:24] <kartook> installing COmpiz-fusion-plugins-extra
[09:24] <indus> dont forget the space
[09:24] <kartook> compiz-wrapper
[09:24] <Valentina> Piet: Actually, this already says ALARM: temp1:       +35.0°C  (high =  +0.0°C, hyst =  +0.0°C)  ALARM  sensor = thermistor
[09:25] <Valentina> Piet: Because of stupid default settings?
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> kartook: you need: compizconfig-settings-manager   the rest will be auto installed for youo as the manager is dependant on them
[09:25] <kartook> yeah its autoselected all
[09:25] <kartook> :)
[09:26] <kartook> thanks once done iwi ll let you know
[09:26] <kartook> iam in 64kbps /sec
[09:26] <kartook> it wil ltake lot of time to complete
[09:26] <Dravekx> Okay, fresh install of vsftpd... anyone want to give me a heads up on configuring? i cant get the damn program to start.
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> kartook: is it worth all this hasstle for some worthless eyecandy?
[09:27] <kartook> :)
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> kartook: serious question
[09:27] <suigeneris> ActionParsnip, do the options for cdrecord work for wodim too?
[09:27] <kartook> because of my wife
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> suigeneris: not something ive used duder, have a play
[09:28] <kartook> she need to see
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> kartook: see what?
[09:28] <kartook> my home conenction was 12 mb/sec

[09:29] <dreno> Hi, I am getting a 404 on darkstat
[09:29] <dreno> can anyone help
[09:30] <sam__> I finally got my USB wifi 160 thing to work under ubuntu but the signal only says like 19% under Windows it says 60%....anyone have any ideas? the internet works but its a bit stop start
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> !ot | meatbun
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> sam__: maybe you need firmware
[09:31] <sam__> upgrade the firmware you mean?
[09:31] <sam__> for the usb device>ActionParsnip
[09:31] <ActionParsnip> sam__: you may, have a hunt around
[09:31] <sam__> ok
[09:31] <ActionParsnip> sam__: its a file you need to put in your filesystem that gets loaded with the driver
[09:31] <iaindalton> Does Ubuntu have an officially blessed desktop search tool?  It seems Tracker is no longer included in ubuntu-desktop; has it fallen from favor?
[09:31] <glicks> im a little confused now...with ubuntu 9.10 theres effectively 4 different ways to install software now.  there is the Ubuntu store, add-remove programs, synaptic, and the commanline apt.  do we really need 4 ways to do the same thing? which method should i use?
[09:32] <glicks> and why are there 4 ways to do it?
[09:32] <sam__> Thanks for your help over the past few weeks ACtionParsnip....what a mission months worth of research and finally I have internet using USB wifi...w00t
[09:32] <indus> glicks: i dont think add/remove is there now
[09:32] <ActionParsnip> sam__: i try, thanks
[09:32] <Piet> Valentina: apparently so, since this very sensor is set to trigger an alarm for any value larger than +0.0°C

[09:32] <Piet> Valentina: if you just want to check one specific sensors' value, then grep/awk for its name, don't just rely on it to be in the last line of the sensors' output.
[09:33] <dutchbuntu> glicks: they are basically all different GUI's to the same back-end
[09:34] <iaindalton> glicks: there's nothing wrong with multiple tools. Some are more advanced. Even Windows does the same thing e.g. with tools for managing disks.
[09:34] <kostkon> glicks, 3. software center replaced add/remove

[09:41] <ActionParsnip> cptblood: no gui though
[09:41] <cptblood> dang

[09:41] <sam__> I have a bad feeling about installing this driver, Someone told me cuz my chipset is new it might not work
[09:41] <YazzY> it's still not there
[09:41] <ActionParsnip> cptblood: could try winff    but if you websearch around youo can find mencoder commands you can use
[09:41] <ActionParsnip> !panelfix
[09:41] <starcannon> sam_ did Nvidia list it in the supported cards in the release notes at their website?
[09:41] <kostkon> YazzY, because it's not an applet anymore but a tray app thus, it should appear in your notif area.
[09:42] <YazzY> kostkon: it did not
[09:42] <madrid> OLaaaa
[09:42] <ageeb> anyone feel like helping with Ubuntu Software Panel?  i'm getting a shadow behind it i can't get to go away

[09:43] <YazzY> kostkon: nope
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> ageeb: what if you switch to another desktop, then back
[09:43] <Piet> glicks: if you're referring to software block device encryption using dm-crypt + LUKS then it should not be inherently slow

[09:44] <ageeb> actionparsnip: oddly enough, the shadow is shown on all desktops
[09:44] <glicks> on my netbook?
[09:44] <starcannon> sam_ looks like support was added for your card in the latest driver release, you "should" be good to go with that one
[09:44] <madrid> en español gilipixiis
[09:44] <kostkon> YazzY, hmm. strange. you said that you deleted your gnome profile. What exactly did you do?
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> ageeb: funky

[09:44] <gehengwang> how to repair the result of doing "sudo rm -rf /"
[09:44] <YazzY> kostkon: deleted all the gconf, gnome* from my  ~, from .local and .config

[09:45] <ageeb> action: if i turn off compiz shadow goes away
[09:45] <ActionParsnip> ageeb: try switching to metacity then back to compiz (compiz really sucks)
[09:45] <ageeb> action: too new to linux to understand how...
[09:45] <YazzY> kostkon: i just ran gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel
[09:45] <ActionParsnip> ageeb: press alt+f2 type: metacity --replace
[09:46] <YazzY> what happened it fsckd up my panel, rest it of course but there is still no sound mixer
[09:46] <glicks> how much swap space if any should i set up for my netbook?
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> ageeb: then you can press alt+f2  and type  compiz --replace
[09:46] <YazzY> and i only can see one big red X
[09:46] <starcannon> ActionParsnip: I agree, compiz is a pita, just not worth the resources it devours, nor the instability it leaves in it's wake
[09:46] <kostkon> YazzY, big red x? where?
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> glicks: how much ram do you have? and how much hard disk space?
[09:46] <YazzY> kostkon: in the panel
[09:46] <dutchbuntu> glicks: usually RAM times 2
[09:46] <glicks> ActionParsnip, it has 2 gigs ram
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> starcannon: indeed
[09:46] <YazzY> kostkon: beside the qestion mark
[09:46] <ageeb> action: shadow is gone
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> ageeb: cool
[09:46] <YazzY> ah, kostkon , it's firefox icon
[09:46] <kostkon> YazzY, ah. it's just a broken launcher
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> glicks: how much disk space?
[09:47] <YazzY> or it supoppose to be it
[09:47] <glicks> 160 gigs
[09:47] <YazzY> kostkon: yah
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> glicks: 2Gb is fine
[09:47] <YazzY> but still no sound mixer
[09:47] <glicks> ok thanks
[09:47] <Toffe> hi all
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> glicks: the rule of thumb is 1xRAM for > 2Gb RAM, 2xRAM for < 2Gb RAM
[09:47] <zey> hei
[09:47] <ageeb> action: i spoke too soon
[09:47] <starcannon> ActionParsnip: I use it for a party trick, then turn it off after everyone is done going "ohhhh! awwwe! cool!"
[09:47] <Toffe> i need some help about zsh
[09:47] <glicks> ActionParsnip, is there any particular location on the disk i should put it?
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> glicks: some dont even have swap as they never exceed their RAM
[09:47] <zey> you play assault cube?
[09:47] <glicks> near the beginning of the disk?
[09:47] <kostkon> YazzY, are you sure that the the notification area applet was added on your panel successfully?
[09:47] <glicks> or near the end
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> glicks: doesnt matter
[09:47] <Valentina> Piet: This script will do the trick? http://paste.ubuntu.com/317637/
[09:47] <YazzY> kostkon: i also got this error The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_FastUserSwitchApplet".
[09:48] <cptblood> thx ActionParsnip, i'll check out winff
[09:48] <ageeb> action: i was still in metacity.  I think i just learned that none in visual enhancements=metacity
[09:48] <YazzY> kostkon: yes, it is there
[09:48] <zey> i want to ask about ASSOUT cUB
[09:48] <zey> ASSAULT CUBE
[09:48] <Toffe> could anyone help me ?
[09:48] <dutchbuntu> !ask |Toffe
[09:48] <YazzY> kostkon: about says: Notification Area 2.28.0
[09:48] <crankyadmin> Toffe, whats wrong?
[09:48] <Valentina> Piet: I get the temperatures at temp1 and temp2 of lm-sensors output as 35.0 and 42.0
[09:48] <kostkon> YazzY, ok
[09:49] <ageeb> action: once i switched back to compiz the shadow came back immediately
[09:49] <Toffe> i would like to bind "2> /dev/null &"="&" in zsh, but I'm not sure how to do it
[09:49] <starcannon> glicks I generally chop up my disk 20gb for / (thats more than needed, but I install lots of crap just to try it), 2gb for Swap, rest to /home, I put them on the disk in that order myself, no problems at all; i've put swap at the end of the disk, and at the beginning, I see no noticable difference in speed in any of the 3 scenarios, so go with whats easy
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> zey: i can see they have a linux installer
[09:49] <crankyadmin> Toffe, bind to what?
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> zey: doesnt look bad for a 40Mb download
[09:50] <glicks> ok, thanks starcannon
[09:50] <zey> @action : how to make LAN server
[09:50] <kostkon> YazzY, could you open a app that you know it puts an icon in the tray, i.e. in the notif area, e.g. pidgin?
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> zey: not sure, i only just heard of it when you said
[09:50] <starcannon> glicks btw, swap should be => amount of ram IF you want hibernate to work
[09:50] <zey> HOW to make an assault cube LAN server???
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> zey: and tab complete nicks, it highlights the text
[09:50] <Toffe> I've tested     alias '&'='2> /dev/null &' , so that when I open a program, the errors aren't written in the bash
[09:50] <UncleD> What software do I need to login to my ubuntu server from Windows XP and see the "Windows" version of ubuntu rather than just the terminal prompt?
[09:51] <Toffe> but it doesn't work. I'm using zsh
[09:51] <glicks> starcannon, so if i have 2 gigs ram, 2048megs of swap should work right?
[09:51] <starcannon> UncleD you mean like a remote desktop client?
[09:52] <UncleD> stracannon; yes thats excatly what i mean
[09:52] <knoppies> glicks, you might want to leave some extra.
[09:52] <UncleD> stracannon i want to remote desktop from windows -> bunutu
[09:52] <starcannon> glicks yeah, make it 2096 to adjust for overhead and too help ensure that hibernate will work if you want it to
[09:52] <crankyadmin> Toffe, Don't use &, use AM and use alias -g AM='foobar'
[09:52] <UncleD> ubuntu rather
[09:52] <ActionParsnip> zey: i think you just run a game and select HOST rather than JOIN
[09:53] <WishingMaster> hi guys, please check this link as I want to know how to change RWIN http://www.speedguide.net:8080/
[09:53] <YazzY> kostkon: yes, it's there
[09:53] <starcannon> UncleD TightVNC will do the job
[09:53] <zey> action : no, i cannot do it
[09:53] <kostkon> YazzY, hmm ok
[09:53] <Toffe> ok, thank you. So I write, in .zshrc, alias -g AM='foobar' ?
[09:53] <starcannon> UncleD http://www.tightvnc.com/
[09:53] <Toffe> I'll try it now. Thank you
[09:53] <UncleD> starcannon, do i need to install tightvnc server on my ubuntu machine?
[09:53] <zey> i know if its should run assaultcube-server
[09:54] <zey> but i don't know how to configure it
[09:54] <ActionParsnip> zey: their may be an option for dedicated server in the app. Have you tried that?
[09:54] <starcannon> UncleD nope, it already has a vnc server and client, just install that to your windows machine, I recommend NOT running it as a service on your windows machine, just start and stop it when you need it.
[09:54] <WishingMaster> ActionParsnip, you gotta a moment ?
[09:54] <ActionParsnip> WishingMaster: sup
[09:54] <crankyadmin> Toffe, alias -g AM='2> /dev/null &'
[09:54] <Toffe> ah ok
[09:55] <UncleD> starcannon, ok what i'm saying is lets say my ubuntu server is ubuntu.com
[09:55] <WishingMaster> ActionParsnip, i want you to have a look at this http://www.speedguide.net:8080/
[09:55] <UncleD> your saying my ubuntu server is already running a vnc server?
[09:55] <crankyadmin> Toffe, then when you need it your-command-here AM
[09:55] <starcannon> UncleD heres a howto I wrote, I think it "should" get you setup they way you need to be http://www.mylinuxinstaller.com/Guides.html
[09:55] <Piet> Valentina: i see
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> WishingMaster: ok, do you use a router?
[09:56] <WishingMaster> ActionParsnip, i have a usb 3g modem
[09:56] <WishingMaster> ActionParsnip, i want to change RWIN
[09:56] <Toffe> Thank's a lot
[09:56] <ageeb> Action: got it figured out
[09:57] <UncleD> starcannon that howto just shows how to install tight vnc
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> WishingMaster: i have no idea about this stuff dude. Why did you ask me rather than asking the channel?
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> ageeb: always nice to hear a success story :D
[09:57] <UncleD> starcannon my question is once ive installed tight vnc, how do i log into my ubuntu box with it
[09:57] <r3za> hi guys , how can i convert many svg file to png ?
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> r3za: install imagemagick
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> r3za: then you can run:   convert input.svg output.png
[09:57] <crankyadmin> Toffe, np
[09:57] <WishingMaster> ActionParsnip, you have answered most of my issues in the past thats why i asked you
[09:58] <ActionParsnip> WishingMaster: ask the channel, if I know I reply. If not I don't
 I did what you said and it installed Sweet
[09:58] <ActionParsnip> sam__: nice
[09:58] <indus> ActionParsnip: :)
[09:58] <WishingMaster> ActionParsnip, okay
[09:58] <glicks> if running a netbook, should i turn on home folder encryption
[09:58] <glicks> what kind of performance hit will that be on a netbook?
[09:58] <llutz> WishingMaster: http://fasterdata.es.net/TCP-tuning//linux.html
[09:58] <glicks> will it be noticably slower?
[09:58] <starcannon> UncleD run the TightVnc Viewer from the Windows Applications menu, make sure you have the vnc server turned on in Ubuntu (System>Preferences>Remote Desktop)
[09:59] <indus> glicks:just remember, in case of your sytem not booting, it is impossible to recover it
[09:59] <WishingMaster> llutz, let me check that brb
[09:59] <glicks> indus, can i add that option later?
[09:59] <starcannon> UncleD there will be a wizard that will let you put in the url of your Ubuntu box when you run the TightVNC viewer client
[09:59] <glicks> and remove it as well?
[09:59] <indus> glicks: hmm yes i believe
[10:00] <UncleD> starcannon: I it appears that I need to install vncserver on my ubuntu box though
[10:00] <indus> glicks: but i dont know how
[10:00] <Dravekx> so, 9.10 is crap????
[10:00] <alkisg> There's a GUI tool for editing policy kit authorizations, what is its name? I can't remember... :(
[10:00] <UncleD> starcannon because i hanvent setup vnc on my ubuntu box. ie. no password, no vnc server setup
[10:00] <starcannon> UncleD, it is already installed, you just have to enable it through System>Preferences>Remote Desktop
[10:00] <UncleD> ah
[10:00] <UncleD> thats what i was asking
[10:00] <johe|work> will there be an dist-upgrade from LTS to the new LTS, next year?
[10:01] <starcannon> UncleD look up a ways hehe, you missed my previous post on it :)
[10:01] <dutchbuntu> johe|work: yes
[10:01] <UncleD> starcannon: can i enable remote desktop remotely through the terminal prompt
[10:01] <UncleD> because im logged into my ubuntu server remotely right now via ssh
[10:01] <UncleD> im trying to set this all up remotely
[10:01] <UncleD> so that I can login to the actual machine
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: you could always just configure the system via ssh
[10:02] <starcannon> UncleD you should be able to, that'd be a gconftool thing I'd think, or there are other ways of doing it; I have never tried that though
[10:02] <UncleD> where is it located
[10:02] <xterm> A friend of mine have spent several weeks of googling and reading to get 5.1 sound threw HDMI going on a atom330 based HTPC. I have also googled a bit on this and it seems as many have the same problem. Who owns this problem? Why is this a probem? Have anyone some input? Can you choose a better platform for a HTPC than atom330?
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: or you could use X forwarding to enable the VNC service stuff
[10:02] <alkisg> Found it: polkit-gnome-authorization ==> but why isn't it installed in Karmic? Something changed?
[10:02] <UncleD> ActionParsnip how
[10:02] <WishingMaster> llutz, well i have performed the steps mentioned in http://fasterdata.es.net/TCP-tuning//linux.html      and looking for steps to change RWIN
[10:02] <Valentina> root will always be able tu execute scripts without changing permissions, or am I wrong?
[10:02] <Valentina> *to
[10:02] <Finnish> I'm making animation in GIMP, in Gif. Everything else ok, but why are my pictures overlapping in the animation, I want them to be just one pic and then the next
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: if the client is windows based you will need to install xming and connect with: putty -x user@server
[10:03] <knoppies> Valentina, I wouldnt really know, But I think not.
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: if teh client is a linux box with a  desktop you can simply run: ssh -X user@server
[10:03] <UncleD> I have putty
[10:03] <UncleD> and the client is windows based
[10:03] <starcannon> Valentina root can be exluded from permissions, though generally it's not
[10:03] <dutchbuntu> Valentina: no. file still needs to be executable through the permissions
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: when you launch gui apps, they will be displayed on the desktop bt be running on the server side (like citrix)
[10:03] <UncleD> so i need to install xming on the server (ubuntu)
[10:04] <UncleD> ?
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: then you need to install xming as windows does not have an x server
[10:04] <Valentina> starcannon: Ok, I chmod my script to 700 then user will have full privileges, but what about root?
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: no, on the windows box, so the gui apps have an x server to stick to
[10:04] <UncleD> ah.
[10:04] <glicks> does anyone know how to add home encryption to ubuntu 9.10 after installation?
[10:04] <UncleD> so xming is a windows application
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: what are you going to be doing on the server side once you get VNCd in?
[10:04] <starcannon> Valentina I just chmod +x somescript.sh
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: yes xming is a windows application
[10:05] <Valentina> starcannon: I don't want everyone to be able to execute it.
[10:05] <johe|work> dutchbuntu, thx
[10:05] <Valentina> just my user and root.
[10:05] <UncleD> ActionParsnip: i just want to be able to login to my X ubuntu desktop
[10:05] <UncleD> rather than always having to just login to the terminal prompt via ssh
[10:05] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: but for what purpose? most apps have web interfaces or can be manipulated easily via ssh
[10:05] <starcannon> Valentina http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/script2/chmodcal.shtml
[10:05] <jauntyjoe> UncleD, www.nomachine.com
[10:06] <Vtec> Hello I just installed Windows 7 alongside my ubuntu partition but how do I get my GRUB back? anyone know? Thanks
[10:06] <dutchbuntu> !grub Vtec
[10:06] <knoppies> |
[10:06] <dutchbuntu> !grub | Vtec
[10:07] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: you may find VNC is a bit surplus if all you want to do is manage torrents when many torrent clients have web interfaces you can use instead (much lighter and way faster)
[10:07] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: as an example
[10:07] <UncleD> ActionParsnip: i just want to try it out.
[10:07] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: thats fine :)
[10:07] <UncleD> ActionParsnip: ive been using my ubuntu server remotely from a windows desktop for a few years as a terminal prompt
[10:08] <UncleD> and i'd like to vnc in.
[10:08] <UncleD> the other thing is.. my ubuntu server doesnt have a monitor, i always have to ssh into it from another machine
[10:08] <Valentina> starcannon: Yes, I know, chmod 700 won't let group and owner execute the script but my own user will. But what about root?
[10:08] <UncleD> so i want to see ubuntu's desktop
[10:08] <Dravekx> burning...
[10:09] <WishingMaster> hey guys! does anyone knows how to change RWIN as Default TCP Receive Window ? http://www.speedtest.net/
[10:09] <starcannon> Valentina I believe root should be able to, worst that happens is you have to chmod it again, or create a group just for the script and make sure to add it to root and userx
[10:10] <ActionParsnip> UncleD: cool, i'd stick with ssh if its a proper server
[10:10] <llutz> WishingMaster: see LINUX-part of http://proj.sunet.se/E2E/tcptune.html , all those parameter have to be changed for changing RWIN
[10:10] <llutz> WishingMaster: it's not a single parameter

[10:40]  * jrib doesn't understand why people don't ask their real questions
[10:40] <Veovis_Muaddib> Concker: That is wrong
[10:40] <Veovis_Muaddib> Concker: The rockbox suggestion
[10:40] <Concker> there must be some easier way then using virtual box

[10:41] <jrib> furtano: you're executing "sh" and telling it to read commands from test.sh
[10:42] <llutz> furtano: you are not executing the script with "sh script", you execute a shell loading a script-file

[10:44] <cyaneo> Q:
[10:44] <cyaneo> - is it safe to use the lenny package on ubuntu 8.04 LTS?
[10:44] <cyaneo> - should I switch my (new) server to debian so I can use this?
[10:44] <FloodBot2> cyaneo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:44] <cyaneo> another option is, to compile the php for my needs - is this recommend?

[11:12] <bmsatierf> Is there a easy way to change Grub to Lilo?
[11:13] <sisif> sandhya : my whole hdd is split up in a 10 GB for / and the rest of it for /home. I don`t have free space where to copy the content of /home
[11:13] <Mosx> anyone know why #php is so often full on this server ?
[11:13] <sisif> This is really annoying ..
[11:13] <sandhya> sisif: you don't have to make a copy.
[11:13] <sandhya> sisif: just ignore the existing /home or mount it as /oldhome and switch later on.. I don't know how the user migration will be done.
[11:14] <sisif> sandhya : and how can I put my /home back to it`s place once the system is installed ?

[11:17] <concker> Hey all, any 1 know of a way to manage a iphone, or ipod toutch from linux?  a simple program with drag and drop functions? i dont want the ssh, or virtualbox solution. just a simple program? -thanks
[11:17] <sisif> Ah common ppl, does eny one here know how I can fix this stupid bug ?
[11:17] <jrib> concker: is it jailbroken?
[11:17] <jrib> !helpme | sisif
[11:17] <concker> ye
[11:17] <sisif> jrib :)
[11:18] <jrib> concker: you can use for example nautilus
[11:18] <concker> hm. how ? :P
[11:18] <concker> im kinda new to loinux in general
[11:18] <scarlet_falcon> ssif: did the install fail?
[11:18] <jrib> concker: file -> connect to server  (ssh)
[11:18] <sisif> IS there any way to migrate from ext4 to ext4 without erasing all the data from hdd?
[11:18] <jrib> concker: nautilus is the name of the default file browser
[11:18] <jrib> sisif: isn't that a no-op?
[11:19] <concker> ye but that require then connection on the ipod aswell right? if ssh works as in windows, atm im in some crappy motel and cant get a singal on my ipod
[11:19] <concker> therefor i need something witch goes true usb
[11:19] <sisif> scarlet_falcon : yes. I get an error at "removing conflicting operating system files". This only happens when I`m trying to install with a different /home partition (the old one, form 9.04)
[11:19] <jrib> concker: right, you can't afaik
[11:20] <jrib> sisif: so don't tell the installer about your separate home and edit your fstab later
[11:20] <concker> vinicius_mendes,  showed me this ifuse thingi, but i dident get it to work, followed the guide 100% etc but ipod still comes up as a digital photo unit
[11:20] <concker> but he seems afk atm
[11:20] <jrib> sisif: you "checked the cd for defects" from the boot menu right?
[11:21] <stickyboy> How do you kill X11 in 9.04?
[11:21] <farciarz84> The Composite extension is not available --9.10
[11:21] <jrib> concker: ah, that must be a relatively recent development
[11:21] <sisif> jrib : yes, i did. As I was saying, this happens _only_ when I try to install with the old /home
[11:21] <epinky> fdsf: check this http://www.serverwatch.com/news/article.php/1131431/Apache-Guide-Generating-Fancy-Directory-Listings-with-modautoindex.htm
[11:21] <jrib> sisif: so don't tell the installer about your separate home and edit your fstab later
[11:21] <scarlet_falcon> sisif: as long as you don't re-format that partition that could work
[11:22] <sisif> jrib : i was thinking like that .. but, later how will the user migrating will be done ?
[11:22] <Bella_16> jest tu ktoś z Polski?
[11:22] <katakbuta> Piet
 katakbuta: for pid in $(ps aux | grep -v grep | awk '/-port 55555/ {print $2}'); do kill $pid; done
[11:22] <katakbuta> -bash: kill: (21942) - No such process
[11:22] <katakbuta> why is that?
[11:22] <jrib> sisif: just create the users before you edit your fstab, you'll just be giving them new files in their home.  Make sure uid's match up
[11:23] <Bella_16> Is there someone from Poland?
[11:23] <jrib> !pl | Bella_16
[11:23] <epinky> !pl| Bella_16
[11:23] <indus> jrib: cant there be polish people in here?
[11:23] <Latoid> !ru
[11:23] <malice> sisif: also i believe the home directories are stored in /etc/passwd
[11:23] <Bella_16> Ok
[11:23] <Bella_16> I use this program first
[11:24] <Piet> katakbuta: because the process has been ended between 'ps aux' was invoked and before 'kill $pid' was invoked
[11:24] <jrib> indus: sure, but i can't point him to the polish people here :)
[11:24] <sisif> malice : wasn`t /etc/passwd crypted ?
[11:24] <katakbuta> Piet sorry i dont get you. but the process is still running
[11:24] <Piet> katakbuta: because the process has been ended after 'ps aux' was invoked and before 'kill $pid' was invoked
[11:24] <Bella_16> I'm from Poland. And you?
[11:24] <indus> jrib: yeah ,but i do wonder why people feel more comfortable speaking with their countrymen for tech stuff also
[11:24] <malice> sisif: the passwords are but the location of the home directory isn't
[11:24] <sllide> can sum1 compile something for me? :D
[11:24] <sllide> i spend 4 hours without success >.>
[11:24] <indus> maybe its the language
[11:25] <sisif> malice: i see. Thanks
[11:25] <capiscuas> ola
[11:25] <Bella_16> what;s mieans suml?
[11:25] <Piet> katakbuta: if a process with pid 21942 is running now then it was probably started after you got to see that message
[11:25] <indus> Bella_16: do you have an ubuntu question
[11:25] <indus> Bella_16: siema
[11:26] <Bella_16> hey indus
[11:26] <malice> sisif: try cat /etc/passwd | grep user
[11:26] <indus> Bella_16: hi
[11:26] <Piet> katakbuta: i think what you want is to use 'kill -9' instead of just 'kill'
[11:26] <Piet> katakbuta: for pid in $(ps aux | grep -v grep | awk '/-port 55555/ {print $2}'); do kill -9 $pid; done
[11:26] <Bella_16> I'm in school
[11:26] <jrib> sisif: I don't see why you would need to edit /etc/passwd
[11:27] <katakbuta> piet if how do i write if its just '55555' rather than -port 55555
[11:27] <sisif> jrib : because the /home will be on a different partition .. ?
[11:27] <indus> lol
[11:27] <katakbuta> piet *how do i write it if its just '55555' rather than -port 55555
[11:27] <jrib> sisif: no, you mount your partition on /home...
[11:27] <jrib> sisif: just like you are doing now
[11:27] <sisif> jrib : ah. I see :)
[11:27] <katakbuta> awk '55555/ ?
[11:27] <Valentina> Will */5 * * * * /home/scripts/myscript.sh run every 5th minute?
[11:27] <malice> sisif: jrib's solution would work as well
[11:28] <sisif> jrib : so all I need to to is edit /etc/fstab ?
[11:28] <Valentina> Cron job, I mean.
[11:28] <katakbuta> never mind. disregard that
[11:28] <Dravekx> if I have openssh installed, I dont want to install SSH do i? are they the same thing?
[11:28] <jrib> sisif: 1) create users so uid's match up (or don't care about uid and chown later) 2) boot into recovery mode 3) edit fstab 4) reboot
[11:29] <Dravekx> nvm I got it :)
[11:29] <sisif> jrib : the user should habe the same uid (I think). I only have one, and it`s the same name / password / etc
[11:29] <leaf-sheep> Dravekx: ssh is a metapackage for openssh-server + openssh-client
[11:29] <sisif> jrib : should be 1000
[11:29] <jrib> sisif: then you can omit step 1
[11:30] <Piet> katakbuta: almost. it's:  awk '/55555/ { print $2}'
[11:30] <sisif> jrib : ok, let me  give it a try. Thank for all the help
[11:30] <mauhur> what's the name of that growl-like notifier on karmic ?
[11:30] <Piet> katakbuta: but this will also match a process whose PID, VSZ or RSS is or just contains 55555
[11:31] <leaf-sheep> mauhur: growl-like notifier? Are you looking for notify-osd?
[11:31] <katakbuta> ouch..how do i make it matches only pid?
[11:31] <mauhur> leaf-sheep: thats the name ?

[12:04] <xur1z> do i need mini.iso also, or will boot.img get me to netinstall just like debian netboot would?
[12:04] <ikonia> Zsoci: the root file system is already installed - or you wouldn't have a working machine
[12:04] <ikonia> Zsoci: what do you actually want to do ?
[12:04] <Zsoci> yes I have
[12:04] <Zsoci> I got 64bit ubuntu
[12:04] <leaf-sheep> xur1z: Please use my nickname.  You don't get highlighted messages out of magic. :0
[12:05] <leaf-sheep> xur1z: I gave you the complete instruction. No need for mini.iso.  boot.img.gz is all you need.

[12:05] <ranjan> i am having an issue to figure out an dependency ...naming glib so can any body can help me to figer it out which file should i use for meting out he dependancy..

[12:06] <Deathspike> Question concerning Emphathy IM. Is there any way to have windows automatically open instead of flashing the task bar icon (minimized, if possible)?
[12:06] <leaf-sheep> xur1z: No problem. You're welcome to run things by me to ensure you're doing it correctly.
[12:06] <ikonia> ranjan: what ar eyou trying to do ?
[12:06] <xur1z> will do ... once it downloads ;)
[12:06] <Zsoci> sudo apt-get install root-system-bin but I can't do that because the dependencies,I tried to install with Synaptic manager,but the installation fails cause the dependencies
[12:07] <ikonia> Zsoci: why are you trying to do this if you have a working system ?
[12:07] <leaf-sheep> xur1z: You might get better support in #gnome since it's a part of Gnome basic integrated packages.
[12:07] <ranjan> ikonia:: i am trying to install an xmms plugin .. i have downlode it from the sources bit i am having some dependency problem it is giving ... You need glib 1.2 or later to build this plug-in
[12:07] <leaf-sheep> Deathspike: See above. That was for you.
[12:07] <Zsoci> I used suse before and there was an automatic dependency management
[12:08] <epinky> c0ld: if you can connect then it's a network issue, not IRCd
[12:08] <ikonia> ranjan: ok - so you need the glib development packages
[12:08] <Zsoci> because I need to use the root console
[12:08] <ranjan> ikonia:: ya
[12:08] <ikonia> Zsoci: you can do that with the package openssh-server
[12:08] <c0ld> well I was hoping to pull someone aside that knew a thing or two on ircd setups
[12:08] <ranjan> ikonia:: i am not able to figure it out from synaptic package
[12:08] <tapas> hi anyone know how to fix the cryptsetup password querying process?
[12:08] <ranjan> list
[12:08] <c0ld> lol
[12:09] <tapas> during boot that is
[12:09] <epinky> c0ld: is it Unreal?
[12:09] <c0ld> yep
[12:09] <ikonia> ranjan: try linux-libc-dev? they are the kernel libc headers
[12:09] <Zsoci> thanks
[12:09] <Zsoci> and one more question
[12:10] <laughzilla> searching - thx , i ended up using winff instead.  that works too.  :)
[12:10] <legend2440> ranjan:  install   libglib2.0-dev
[12:10] <ranjan> ikonia:: it is already installed
[12:11] <legend2440> ranjan:  install   libglib2.0-dev
[12:11] <dakd> salve
[12:11] <Zsoci> I need to install  farsight2 for amsn to be able to use video and audio,but I can't find any package for it
[12:11] <ikonia> ranjan: ok - so look at the configure script and look at the checks it's making
[12:11] <dakd> posso chiedere un info?
[12:11] <ikonia> Zsoci: there may not be one
[12:11] <Zsoci> only to compile
[12:11] <epinky> !it | dakd
[12:12] <dakd> ok grazie
[12:12] <Zsoci> and without Root system I can't do that
[12:12] <ikonia> Zsoci: what are you on about root system - you have the root file system or your box would NOT work
[12:12] <AJIEXA> hello
[12:12] <Zsoci> i can't  login as root
[12:12] <ikonia> Zsoci: you use sudo
[12:13] <ikonia> !sudo > Zsoci
[12:13] <ikonia> !root > Zsoci
[12:13] <the_gamer> !root > the_gamer
[12:13] <AJIEXA> have anyone install vmware?? - I have some problem with keyboard in the guest OS windows XP... is there any solution?
[12:13] <the_gamer> !sudo > the_gamer
[12:14] <legend2440> ikonia: root-system-bin  is an app    Numerical data analysis framework - general applications
[12:14] <ikonia> legend2440: I know what that is, but he keeps asking about the root system, not root-system-bin
[12:14] <legend2440> ikonia: oh ok
[12:14] <Zsoci> thanks so much
[12:15] <epinky> AJIEXA: define "some problem"
[12:16] <sp4z> epinky: your keen to take that problem on :D
[12:16] <legend2440> Zsoci: if you are trying to install   and getting dependency problems   try in terminal    sudo aptitude install root-system-bin   Aptitude often resolves dependency problems when apt-get can't
[12:16] <leaf-sheep> xur1z: Speaking of USB, I'm doing it right now because I want to do this sometimes today for the other machine. I might as well do it now. ;)
[12:16] <AJIEXA> epinky: on my netbook I can't use last keyboard symbols - they are work like 123456 etc but the must work like jkliop
[12:17] <the_gamer> rofl
[12:17] <Zsoci> thank you so much
[12:17] <Jimi_Neutral> HI all, I have used clonezilla in the past, updated to koala latley.....ran the setup again for it and its not working anymore...keeps coming up with "init.orig: sreadahead main process (1557) terminated with status 1" anyone come across this before?
[12:17] <differentreality> hi, i am using ubuntu 9.04 and I would like to add on my deskto a gadget that will be a timeline and I will be able to write comments underneath each day or anyway something like that.. any ideas ?
[12:17] <the_gamer> AJIEXA, try staying away from numlock
[12:18] <leaf-sheep> differentreality: What is the purpose of this? By telling us what you specifically want out of a package is more difficult than tell us what you're looking for. ;3
[12:18] <zd>  /window splitv 33
[12:19] <dAnon1> I've got my /home folder separate with the /home partition, there is Tobi and Tobiasz folder, Tobi is my /home partition and Tobiasz is a standard /home folder on / partition
[12:19] <AJIEXA> the_gamer: I have't numlock on me keyboard - I just have "FN" botton and the must work like symbols by default
[12:19] <the_gamer> AJIEXA, don't lie
[12:19] <differentreality> leaf-sheep,  exactly what i said :)   I need a timeline... so that I can write down the course of a project I am running.  I just find it easier to be on my desktop (and not a program), is there such a gadget ?
[12:20] <dAnon1> how do I merge them into /home/Tobi so I can have my configuration and such .blahblah folders on the /home partition
[12:20] <AJIEXA> the_gamer: I can send you screenshort
[12:20] <sp4z> differentreality: is there one in windows? where did you get the idea for this gadget?
[12:21] <leaf-sheep> differentreality: I'm googling for something like that.
[12:21] <differentreality> well... i tried googling myself as well... maybe you get more lucky :)
[12:21] <xur1z> differentreality: my pal swears by the standard gnome organiser tool. haven't tried it myself.
[12:21] <dAnon1> anyone help?
[12:21] <dAnon1> I've got my /home folder separate with the /home partition, there is Tobi and Tobiasz folder, Tobi is my /home partition and Tobiasz is a standard /home folder on / partition
[12:21] <dAnon1> how do I merge them into /home/Tobi so I can have my configuration and such .blahblah folders on the /home partition
[12:22] <aindriu> anyone tried windows 7 yet?
[12:22] <leaf-sheep> differentreality: There are hamster-applet -- I don't know if that's what you want.
[12:22] <dAnon1> and not screw things up
[12:22] <leaf-sheep> differentreality: "Project Hamster helps you to keep track of how much time you spend on various
[12:22] <leaf-sheep>  activities during the day.  Whenever you move from one task to another, you
[12:22] <leaf-sheep>  change your current activity in the GNOME applet.'
[12:22] <xur1z> aindriu: it's on this netbook i just bought. kinda looks like gnome :)
[12:22] <differentreality> axm... xur1z what's the standard gnome organizer?!
[12:22] <differentreality> leaf-sheep,  well... i'll try it out
[12:23] <xur1z> i dunno, he was acessing it via the cal in gnome-panel
[12:23] <dAnon1> why does Ubuntu have graphical interfaces if they don't change anything and you need to turn terminal anyway
[12:23] <leaf-sheep> differentreality: Package --> gtg, I think.
[12:23] <leaf-sheep> differentreality: http://gtg.fritalk.com/pages/screenshots
[12:23] <skx> I suspect my disk to be failing, how can I verify this suspicion? It's a regular laptop 5400 rpm disk with encrypted lvm on it.
[12:23] <skx> dAnon1, it's to make you feel better :)
[12:23] <AJIEXA> the_gamer:  Oh my GOD  - I m SORRY I m really sorry  - you are right ..... how can I not see this ......  - may be it because I buy it over one month ......
[12:23] <dAnon1> I tried to change my home directory and never suceeded
[12:23] <leaf-sheep> differentreality: Yup. Looks like what you want.  gtg :)
[12:24] <skx> dAnon1, "change the home directory"?!
[12:24] <AJIEXA> it's really working  - THANK"S to ALL
[12:24] <Jimi_Neutral> aindriu, yeah i have, its good i think
[12:24] <dAnon1> I mean I created a /home partition for all my data
[12:24] <dAnon1> and / for Ubuntu
[12:24] <differentreality> leaf-sheep,  i'll look into it, thanks a lot
[12:24] <dAnon1> and I've got 2 folders in /home
[12:25] <leaf-sheep> differentreality: Actually, xur1z deserve the thanks. :)
[12:25] <Valentina> Why isn't shutdown -h 0 used in a script that's executed bya  root cron job?
[12:25] <dAnon1> instead of one partition there is a regular /home/username folder from / partition
[12:25] <Valentina> *by a
[12:25] <dAnon1> and my /home partition
[12:25] <skx> dAnon1, I don't understand the problem
[12:25] <Valentina> Why isn't shutdown -h 0 working in a script that's being executed as by root cron job?
[12:26] <differentreality> tnxxxx xur1z :)
[12:26] <dAnon1> where can I upload a screen shot for you
[12:26] <dAnon1> it's easy when you'll see it
[12:26] <aindriu> Can someone please tell me about the filesystem structure and what you'd expect to find where?
[12:26] <xur1z> good luck differentreality ... i'll check it out myself shortly
[12:26] <skx> dAnon1, dropbox, imageshack, whatever you like, adn try to write in one line using my nickname
[12:26] <skx> I suspect my disk to be failing, how can I verify this suspicion? It's a regular laptop 5400 rpm disk with encrypted lvm on it.
[12:26] <dAnon1> in my home folder there is /home partition mounted and a regular username folder which is / partition
[12:27] <dAnon1> I want it to be one folder all on /home partition
[12:27] <dAnon1> can't merge it :(
[12:27] <SwedeMike> skx: install smartmontools and use smartctl
[12:27] <dAnon1> don't want to screw things up
[12:27] <skx> SwedeMike, thank you, I am on it
[12:27] <catmando> hey all
[12:27] <catmando> quick question
[12:27] <bigmack83_> every since i upgraded to karmic (fresh install) k9copy hasnt worked properly. i cant use it to cut the chapters out of one of my dvd iso's to copy them onto a disc and compress them to fit if needed. it erorrs out every time. anyone else experience this?
[12:27] <leaf-sheep> skx: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools
[12:27] <catmando> i'm trying to use port a standard apache conf over to ubuntu
[12:27] <steven__> What is the fastest desktop environment out there?
[12:28] <catmando> and it contains some mod_proxy directives
[12:28] <skx> leaf-sheep, I just need a keyword :)
[12:28] <zaggynl> catmando: I like LXDE/openbox
[12:28] <zaggynl> have it running on a P3
[12:28] <leaf-sheep> skx: Manuals are a bonus. :)
[12:28] <srepfler> bash
[12:28] <zaggynl> CLI>all ofcourse
[12:28] <catmando> installing mod-proxy-html doesn't seem to do the trick
[12:28] <catmando> any ideas?
[12:28] <skx> dAnon1, first, do not mount filesystems on not-empty folders
[12:29] <valberg> hi
[12:29] <dAnon1> but it was like that from fresh installed system
[12:29] <skx> dAnon1, umount /home (as root), move any files from away, remount, move the files back
[12:29] <valberg> i have a problem with netbook-launcher in UNR on my eeePC 1101HA
[12:29] <skx> dAnon1, I don't think so
[12:29] <catmando> specifically, it's complaining about ProxyRequests
[12:29] <ronald> hello there.,
[12:30] <valberg> every time i suspend or hibernate my computer, netbook-launcher has crashed when i start the netbook again, and there is no way to get it to work than to reboot the computer...
[12:30] <epinky> aindriu: check this http://www.comptechdoc.org/os/linux/usersguide/linux_ugfilestruct.html
[12:30] <ronald> how to install the ALSA?
[12:30] <valberg> anyone have a similar experience and/or know any fixes ?
[12:30] <skx> valberg, known issue ;\
[12:30] <dAnon1> skx it mounted like that from start
[12:31] <valberg> skx: but no fix?
[12:31] <skx> valberg, none that I know of, I have a link, gimme a minute
[12:31] <valberg> skx: cool :)
[12:31] <skx> valberg, 21 pages http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8284264
[12:31] <ronald> any one know how to install the ALSA driver?
[12:32] <bigmack83_> anyone else experience issues with k9copy after upgrading to karmic. it just doesnt seem to be able to copy or extract dvd/iso chapters anymore
[12:32] <skx> valberg, probably still no fix though ;\
[12:32] <skx> valberg, hibernation works... you can try that for now
[12:32] <andy> bandung
[12:32] <skx> ronald, alsa? you probably have alsa
[12:32] <falcokian> -
[12:32] <Valentina> I don't understand. Why is my shutdown script working when running it by: sudo ./myscript.sh but not when running it from a root cron job?
[12:33] <differentreality> by the way, is there some way for someone to easily create his/her own desktop applets/gadgets for Ubuntu ?
[12:33] <valberg> skx: well, it is actually the same in my case
[12:33] <ronald> yeah..but my soundcard is not supported
[12:33] <leaf-sheep> Valentina: Use full path in your commands.
[12:33] <skx> valberg, paste the appropriate line from cron
[12:33] <Guest77042> bali
[12:33] <skx> Valentina, paste the appropriate line from cron
[12:33] <valberg> skx: appropriate line?
[12:34] <skx> valberg, it wasn't meant for you, sorry :)
[12:34] <Valentina> skx: Ok.
[12:34] <falcokian> hey..i'm ubuntu newbie
[12:34] <xur1z> valentina: ur script may depend on path vars being available which are set when logged in but not in cron
[12:34] <falcokian> nice O.S
[12:34] <xur1z> cus in cron ur notin a full shell
[12:34] <falcokian> its awesome..
[12:34] <valberg> skx: heh heh fair deal
[12:34] <falcokian> anyone here can help me..
[12:34] <leaf-sheep> falcokian: Ask away the questions.
[12:34] <skx> valberg, anyway, if you find a solution, feel free to msg me ;)
[12:34] <falcokian> about software...
[12:34] <ronald> skx:yeah..but my soundcard is not supported
[12:34] <xur1z> Valentina: you also can check the actual cron cmd being run by inspecting /var/log/*log for 'cron' (grep -i cron /var/log/*log)
[12:35] <gasull> Hi. There was a command for Ubuntu/Debian different than make install.  Does anybody remember it?
[12:35] <Valentina> skx: This is my cron job line: */5 * * * * /home/valentina/check_temp.sh
[12:35] <skx> ronald, give more details, or try ubuntu forums
[12:35] <falcokian> i mean.. PC mobile..
[12:35] <llutz> !checkinstall |  gasull
[12:35] <xur1z> Valentina: what file is ur cron job in pls? ur personal crontab or /etc/cron.*/*
[12:35] <skx> Valentina, try */5 * * * * /bin/bash /home/valentina/check_temp.sh
[12:35] <gasull> llutz: thanks
[12:35] <Valentina> Here is the script: http://paste.ubuntu.com/317637/
[12:35] <skx> Valentina, or whatever shell you like
[12:36] <skx> whichever&
[12:36] <valberg> skx: my problem is not that my computer doesn't start after a suspension/hibernation, but only that netbook-launcher is all crashed and there is no way of restarting that single app
[12:36] <falcokian> what software can call any mobile through PC using internet??
[12:36] <epinky> Valentina: and the user? "root"?
[12:36] <Valentina> It works just fine executed from Terminal by: sudo ./myscript.sh
[12:36] <falcokian> like IM skype.. but looking fir free...
[12:36] <skx> valberg, oh, then maybe there is a solution
[12:36] <ronald> skx: i use the 9.04.,then i don't have sound after i install the 9.04 ubuntu
[12:36] <valberg> skx: :)
[12:36] <Valentina> Eneloop: The script has got valentina as a user but is being run from cron job as root.
[12:36] <xur1z> Valentina: but ur not running sudo myscript.sh in cron, are you
[12:36] <leaf-sheep> Valentina: Replace "shutdown -h 0"  with "/sbin/shutdown -h 0"
[12:37] <Zsoci> good bye and thanks so much,have a nice day!
[12:37] <xur1z> Valentina: unless ur cron task runs as root anyway?
[12:37] <Valentina> The script is run by root cron job because I added a echo "test" > test.txt at the end of the script and the file was created during execution from root cron job.
[12:37] <NarbeH> hi
[12:38] <Valentina> xur1z: I have created the cronjob using: sudo crontab -e
[12:38] <falcokian> wow..awesome..
[12:38] <NarbeH> i have Dell XPS m1530, After upgrading 9.04 to 9.10 i don't have sound. what is the problem?
[12:38] <Valentina> xur1z: So I hope it's a root cron job, not auser cron job.
[12:38] <koppe> What is "the best" 3d Graphics Card I can get (allmost) full support for under Ubuntu?
[12:38] <storm_> when I install software by apt-get, ca-certificates-java errs:ca-certificates-java
[12:38] <storm_> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[12:38] <ronald> skx: i use the 9.04.,then i don't have sound after i install the 9.04 ubuntu
[12:38] <xur1z> Valentina: should be. Might be easier to use /etc/cron.d/ for hte job than sudo crontab -e but that's a matter of taste really.
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> koppe:  i would check out the various nvidia cards/reviews   depends on your budget also.
[12:39] <eddym> hey all
[12:39] <storm_> hi
[12:39] <eddym> Dr_Willis, what audio prg do u use? banshee?
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> eddym:  none really
[12:39] <Valentina> Ok, well, maybe it's the path that is playing me a joke.
[12:39] <Valentina> I'll test to set full path to commands.
[12:39] <epinky> Valentina: try adding "root" before your command on the cron line
[12:40] <NarbeH> i have Dell XPS m1530, After upgrading 9.04 to 9.10 i don't have sound. what is the problem?
[12:41] <storm_> 晕
[12:41] <xur1z> Valentina: the first thing i'd test is whether the cmd is actually getting executed. grep -i cron /var/log/*log
[12:41] <Lexclu> bonjour les tapettes
[12:41] <Lexclu> quoi de neuf ?
[12:41] <Valentina> epinky: Ok, I thought it would be run as root if the cron job was created by: sudo crontab -e
[12:42] <Lexclu> parlez français car je suis là
[12:42] <xur1z> that should show if the cron task is firignng
[12:42] <Lexclu> donc si vous parlez englais je vous frappe
[12:42] <xur1z> and who it fires from
[12:42] <Lexclu> bandes de nazis !
[12:42] <dutchbuntu> !fr | Lexclu
[12:42] <epinky> !fr | Lexclu
[12:42] <Lexclu> ta gueule dutchbuntu et epinky !!!
[12:42] <xur1z> epinky's advice only works if the cron task is set in /etc/cron.*
[12:42] <NarbeH> i have Dell XPS m1530, After upgrading 9.04 to 9.10 i don't have sound. what is the problem?
[12:42] <Lexclu> !es | ubottu
[12:42] <epinky> Lexclu: oue, ma gueule
[12:42] <Lexclu> !it | ubottu
[12:42] <bazhang> Lexclu, please go to #ubuntu-fr for french
[12:42] <Lexclu> !us | ubottu
[12:42] <xur1z> for a personal crontab, the user entry will stop it working (there is no cmd "root", or if there is, ur in trouble ;)
[12:43] <bazhang> Lexclu, stop that
[12:43] <Lexclu> !ru | ubottu
[12:43] <Lexclu> !* | ubottu
[12:43] <patchon> How can i make a screensaver be running as root, to be able to stop a user from killing it ? (or is that the wrong way of doing things, basicly i have a eventmanager that listens for certain events,  and locks the screensaver based on the event, however if i run this program as root, its not able to lock the screen of the current user, since the display is not available)
[12:43] <Valentina> xur1z: Yes, I think it is: /var/log/syslog:Nov 13 13:35:01 c-3e79e755 CRON[6918]: (root) CMD (/home/valentina/myscript.sh)
[12:43] <falcokian> sound problem..
[12:44] <Valentina> xur1z: Then I find the same line 5 minutes later and that seems to be correct.
[12:44] <xur1z> Valentina: ok cool. so then u know u just need to debug the SCRIPT, not CRON
[12:44] <xur1z> check paths in the script etc
[12:44] <xur1z> ur cron looks fine if what u say is true
[12:44] <JonNight> Hey everyone I just installed OzOs and have gotten almost everything working and happy. But for some reason I can not get my sound to work.
[12:44] <Valentina> xur1z: Yeah, I think so, I'll have to see if the full path will do the trick.
[12:45] <xur1z> debugging is a matter of choosing the test which will get u the most info
[12:45] <xur1z> it's a lot like 20 questions
[12:45] <xur1z> "is it cron or the script"?
[12:45] <JonNight> Its driving me crazy because with debian it worked just fine. with Satanic ubuntu it did not work and now with OzOs is does not work
[12:45] <JonNight> any suggestions
[12:45] <xur1z> "is it ____ or ____?"
[12:45] <mgv2> what can i do about that in evolution? http://img262.imageshack.us/img262/544/13664299.png
[12:46] <Valentina> xur1z: No, it was run as root right now. And it didn't shutdown. There is still something wrong with the script.
[12:46] <joshyfluff> does anyone know of patches for a HP un2400 Mobile Broadband Module Ethernet Adaptor?
[12:46] <xur1z> yes, but now you know it's the script for sure, not cron
[12:46] <xur1z> so u have 50% less possible issues to debug
[12:46] <epinky> mgv2: restart evolution?
[12:47] <mgv2> epinky, i did it already
[12:47] <TheSeeker1> Hello everyone!  I was wondering if anyone here is using Windows in Virtual Box and has tried any windows games through Virtual Box?  Does it work?
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> TheSeeker1:  will depend on the game.. and i imagine not very well.
[12:47] <leaf-sheep> TheSeeker1: If you really <3 Windows Games, you should opt for dual-boot.
[12:47] <mgv2> what is this vb?
[12:47] <epinky> mgv2: Karmic?
[12:48] <mgv2> epinky, yes
[12:48] <llutz> TheSeeker1: solitair works
[12:48] <JonNight> theseeker: I used suns virtual box with xp worked fine for me
[12:48] <falcokian> try fring software for that..
[12:48] <TheSeeker1> Dr_Willis:  Is that because of the virtualization?
[12:48] <epinky> mgv2: open a terminal and type : /usr/lib/evolution/2.28/killev
[12:48] <JonNight> any idea's on my problem?
[12:49] <TheSeeker1> JonNight:  What games did you play?  l'm not looking at anything graphic intensive maybe SimCity and others like that.
[12:49] <Valentina> Here is my "shutdown script": http://paste.ubuntu.com/317750/
[12:49] <JonNight> eve-online :)
[12:49] <forceflow> TheSeeker1: forget anything with Direct3D accelleration
[12:49] <Valentina> It will be executed as root from my root cron job BUT it won't shutdown as it should. It will work in Terminal by sudo ./myscript.sh
[12:49] <TheSeeker1> JonNight:  So I take it that eve-online is pretty graphically intensive?
[12:49] <JonNight> O.o
[12:50] <falcokian> anyone here..know what software.. for PC calling Mobile throught internet..for ubuntu?
[12:50] <falcokian> anyone here..know what software.. for PC calling Mobile throught internet..for ubuntu?
[12:50] <JonNight> lets just say it looks really pretty
[12:50] <mgv2> epinky, still the same
[12:50] <TheSeeker1> JonNight:  Did you do anything special to get it to run?
[12:50] <epinky> mgv2: :(
[12:50] <JonNight> Just learn how to config it.
[12:50] <Dr_Willis> TheSeeker1:  low end casual games can work
[12:50] <JonNight> once you get it going its normaly not to bad
[12:50] <mgv2> epinky, thanks
[12:51] <JonNight> just do not think to play doom 3 at full speed
[12:51] <epinky> Valentina: bettter use /etc/crontab
[12:51] <leaf-sheep> Valentina: Try and run the commmand "/sbin/shutdown -h 0" in the root.
[12:51] <JonNight> eve is a slow enough game I do not work about it
[12:51] <TheSeeker1> JonNight:  What kind of config are you talking about?
[12:51] <Dr_Willis> TheSeeker1:  check the wine app database - that will proberly give better preformance

[12:52] <TheSeeker1> Dr_Willis:  I will do that.  I just wanted to get away from dual booting with Windows.  There is still some Windows stuff I have to run and I thought I could accomplish to things by using virtual box.
[12:53] <DJones> Dr_Willis: The ip address was iraq
[12:53] <Dr_Willis> TheSeeker1:  many programs can work very well in Virtualbox in windows. Games are proberly best to use in wine.

[12:54] <Linux-IRC> geirha: Hi,
[12:54] <leaf-sheep> Valentina: I mean "sudo -i" -- then when you're in root shell, try the shutdown command. Also, you could use "/sbin/shutdown -h now"
[12:55] <Valentina> leaf-sheep: Ok
[12:55] <ShayMor432> Hello , how can i use ls to print the size of files in MB format ?
[12:55] <nonix4> How do I tell udev to put proper permissions for an USB UPS?
[12:56] <Valentina> leaf-sheep: The command worked like a charm from root prompt after first running sudo -i. No problem at all.
[12:56] <MenZa> ShayMor432: du -sh <file>
[12:56] <leaf-sheep> Valentina: You received the "echo" message in the log?
[12:57] <leaf-sheep> Valentina: Oh, run the command from the root too, using full path.
[12:57] <leaf-sheep> the script*
[12:57] <Vtec> Can anyone PERSONALLY teach me how to re-install grub after a windows 7 install? need help personally not some site with a guide, thanks
[12:58] <freeride> hello there
[12:58] <Valentina> leaf-sheep: I did try this at root prompt: /sbin/shutdown -h 0 and it worked without problems.
[12:58] <bazhang> Vtec, you mean grub2 with karmic?
[12:58] <leaf-sheep> Valentina: Okay. I'm thinking it's more of a script problem.
[12:58] <freeride> does anybody know where do i finde trash folder?
[12:58] <Vtec> well i updated from 9.04 to karmic yes, idk what grub came default with jaunty though
[12:58] <leaf-sheep> !trash | freeride
[12:59] <lithiumx> What sort of graphics card do I need to take full advantage of Compiz 3D effects, as well as playing HD movies? I'm not a heavy PC gamer, just the occassional OpenArena etc..
[12:59] <freeride> ubottu thanks a lot
[12:59] <bazhang> Vtec, did you choose to go with the package maintainers version or not
[12:59] <icedwater> Any word on why the Trash location was changed?
[12:59] <Vtec> Bazhang, what is that? Ubuntu Jaunty didn't have any options like that
[13:00] <bazhang> Vtec, when you upgraded it gave you a choice
[13:00] <diddy> Does Ubuntu have anything similar to Window shadow copies?
[13:00] <Vtec> I don't remember that I upgraded from update manager a day before release, not a live cd
[13:00] <Valentina> leaf-sheep: I got the message from echo running it by sudo ./myscript.sh but it doesn't seem to work running it from root cron job. But the script was created a text file in valentina home folder when I put that line at the end of the script.
[13:01] <NarbeH> i have Dell XPS m1530, After upgrading 9.04 to 9.10 i don't have sound. what is the problem?
[13:01] <Valentina> leaf-sheep: Yeah, I think it's the script that's messing this up too.
[13:01] <Vtec> Bazhang, I don't remember that I upgraded from update manager a day before release, not a live cd
[13:02] <llutz> Valentina: place that script in /usr/local/sbin and try again (change path in cronjob too)
[13:02] <Valentina> llutz: Why do I have to put it there?
[13:03] <llutz> Valentina: just for testing
[13:03] <luist> hey... im using openbox and i added xcompmgr -cCfF -t-5 -l-5 -r4.2 -o.55 -D6 & to .bashrc and it works when i open terminator but gives me some errors and message: Another composite manager is already running
[13:03] <Valentina> llutz: Ok
[13:05] <Vtec> Can anyone PERSONALLY teach me how to re-install grub after a windows 7 install? need help personally not some site with a guide, thanks

[13:05] <Satisfied> I'm using Jackalope... how do I upgrade to firefox 3.5  ?
[13:05] <Vtec> wow
[13:05] <Vtec> I just asked for PERSONAL help
[13:05] <Vtec> not that site..
[13:05] <llutz> Vtec: irc doesn't work like that
[13:06] <dutchbuntu> Satisfied: install shiretoko
[13:06] <llutz> Vtec: personal help means payed help
[13:06] <Vtec> That's why I'm ASKING for it, I'm sure someone would be willing to help me in PM
[13:06] <Vtec> I've gotten personal help before
[13:06] <JasseT> llutz: why do we have this channel then?
[13:06] <Tuju> Vtec: how about stop shouting and ask someone personally, which is not here.
[13:07] <xur1z> leaf-sheep: gotz installer
[13:07] <llutz> JasseT: general support, leading people in right direction. enable them to help themselve
[13:07] <leaf-sheep> xur1z: What took you long? ._.
[13:07] <Vtec> how about you shut the fuck up and if you don't like it don't comment on it
[13:07] <Vtec> !grub
[13:07] <icedwater> Vtec: you want someone to walk you through it?
[13:07] <Tuju> JasseT: because everything done personally and talked here is just plain noice for everyone else.
[13:07] <Vtec> yes icedwater :/
[13:07] <leaf-sheep> !attitude | Vtec
[13:07] <bazhang> Vtec, watch the language
[13:08] <xur1z> using usb-creator in vmware to build usb flash isntead of doing it via slownet :P
[13:08] <lithiumx> vtec, you ask for help and then tell the people offering to help to shut the f**k up
[13:08] <icedwater> I can't help you with that, not having been lucky enough to use Windows 7 :) But you should probably start with one of the websites, honestly.
[13:08] <icedwater> What is the difficulty you are having with following the website instructions?
[13:08] <Vtec> no one has offered to help me they jsut keep saying how i need to shut up and no one will help me personalyl
[13:08] <Vtec> that isn't offering help buddy
[13:08] <diddy> Does Ubuntu have anything similar to Window shadow copies?
[13:08] <dutchbuntu> Vtec: no one told you to shut up
[13:09] <xur1z> zfs?
[13:09] <xur1z> zfs has snapshotting all over the place
[13:09] <epinky> Vtec: I think nobody will help you if you start swearing
[13:09] <Tuju> dutchbuntu: but i wanted to :)
[13:09] <dutchbuntu> Vtec: you've been pointed at various websites that have solutions for your problems
[13:09] <lithiumx> Vtec, why should they help you. Help installing GRUB is not some inherent right! Read the docs, and you'll find out how
[13:09] <llutz> xur1z: there's no zfs  for linux (except broken fuse)
[13:09] <lamothe> Hi all, what's the difference between a stacktrace and a backtrace?
[13:09] <Vtec> don't you think i've tried that lithiumx, i don't understand it
[13:10] <xur1z> i haven't seen nice shadow copies UI. ZFS is better than time machine. time machine rocks. orly does linux not have ZFS? that sux
[13:10] <c0ld> Hey how do I add a app exception in the ufw for ircd port 6667?
[13:10] <Vtec> !grub2
[13:10] <dutchbuntu> Vtec: why don't you do what it says there and come back here if you have anu more problems?
[13:10] <Vtec> What do you think I'm doing now
[13:10] <xur1z> well then i echo diddy's q
[13:10] <lithiumx> Vtec, You've come in swearing and being rude, I have no idea what you've tried? What's you're problem specifically, where did you get up to?
[13:10] <USH-6150> Is it possible to install, say, mplayer in ubuntu server and have it output videos to tv-out without installing X/X11/Xorg?
[13:10] <xur1z> what snapshotting equivs does linux offer?
[13:10] <Tuju> [Ignore] Added Vtec!* to your ignore list.
[13:10] <dutchbuntu> Vtec: to be honest, i think you might be trolling
[13:11] <Valentina> llutz: That didn't work. I see in my logs that the cron job was run, but it didn't work. I also see that another suspicous cron job was run: (  [ -x /usr/lib/php5/maxlifetime ] && [ -d /var/lib/php5 ] && find /var/lib/php5/ -type f -cmin +$(/usr/lib/php5/maxlifetime) -print0 | xargs -n 200 -r -0 rm)
[13:11] <Vtec> trolling?... what is that
[13:11] <epinky> Vtec: we need errors to troubleshoot
[13:11] <Valentina> What's that?
[13:11] <Vtec> I'm new to Linux hence the Ubuntu
[13:11] <Vtec> I have NO idea what I'm doing
[13:11] <Dravekx> vsftpd stop runlevel arguments (0 1 6) do not match LSB De                       fault-Stop values (1) << WHATS THAT MEAN?
[13:11] <Vtec> !grub
[13:12] <leaf-sheep> Valentina: PHP-related, I suppose. Read bash scripts tutorials. Also, #bash
[13:12] <icedwater> Well, you'll find help here, though more often than not you'll be asked to read some relevant websites. Much work has gone into compiling those resources :P
[13:12] <diddy> xurlz, what do you mean zfs?
[13:13] <joaopinto> xur1z, you have lvm snapshots
[13:13] <xur1z> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZFS pretty cool FS from Sun
[13:13] <USH-6150> Any news about Sun porting it to Linux?
[13:13] <joaopinto> USH-6150, it is not a matter of porting, it's a matter of license
[13:13] <llutz> USH-6150: unless they put in under gpl, it never will reach the kernel
[13:14] <llutz> USH-6150: and they never will do that
[13:14] <USH-6150> Well, I read somewhere that they were going to, or thinking about, getting it to Linux.
[13:14] <shey> Who?
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> like the great work they did with java? :)
[13:14] <legend2440> Vtec: maybe someone in  channel    #grub    can help you better
[13:14] <Pici> !who
[13:14] <Dravekx> vsftpd stop runlevel arguments (0 1 6) do not match LSB Default-Stop values (1)? anyone know what that means?
[13:14] <epinky> Vtec: have you tried with GAG? http://gag.sourceforge.net/ , I think it's more user friendly
[13:14] <Vtec> legend2440, thanks I appreciate that I wasn't aware of that channe;

[13:16] <Empathy> hello world im don't have video sound on default empathy messenger on ubuntu 9.10 karmic somebody can help me?
[13:16] <blinkiz> c0ld, What do you mean with exception?
[13:16] <lithiumx> It looks like, Jesus is being moved to the off-topic channel, it's just like that thing with the Romans all over again
[13:17] <sahilsk> i basicall need linux diastro for ANimatin /3d ..which one u guys suggest?? ubuntu is not 4 m....
[13:17] <shey> I am aware this is an Ubuntu Support channel. I do speak english.
[13:17] <Valentina> legend2440: Ok, but it didn't come up because of my script in /usr/local/sbin/mysccript.sh?
[13:17] <lithiumx> ikonia, and I'll stop now
[13:17] <c0ld> like to allow my ircd to broadcast
[13:17] <Valentina> legend2440: Sorry.
[13:17] <c0ld> not block port 6667
[13:17] <joaopinto> sahilsk, this is for Ubuntu support, not general linux, try asking on ##linux
[13:17] <Ali_> anyone here know open office macro code?
[13:17] <Valentina> leaf-sheep: It didn't be run cause of that I moved my script to /usr/local/sbin/ and run it from there by a cron job?
[13:17] <Empathy> hello world im don't have video sound on default empathy messenger on ubuntu 9.10 karmic somebody can help me?
[13:17] <blinkiz> c0ld, Hmm.. trying to figure out if it is as simple as just "ufw allow port 6667"..
[13:18] <joaopinto> c00p, IRC does not broadcast, it just needs tp accept TCP connections on that port
[13:18] <Ali_> i want to know the equivalent of the Selection object in MS?
[13:18] <blinkiz> c0ld, with ufw, you can't control individual programs. It's always on port level
[13:18] <leaf-sheep> Valentina: I didn't suggest /usr/local/sbin.  Although that's a good place because it allows users to execute that script, not just your user.

[13:19] <silidan> hi, i have a notebook with an ati radeon mobility hd 4330 onboard, what driver shoul di use to get full 3d acceleration?
[13:19] <c0ld> blinkz I get this ERROR: Need 'to' or 'from' clause
[13:19] <joaopinto> silidan, fglrx, which is the default ATI restricted driver
[13:19] <llutz> leaf-sheep: it was my request to test the script from outside user-home
[13:19] <joaopinto> assuming your model is supporter :P
[13:19] <Ali_> llutz, i'm there :)
[13:19] <blinkiz> c0ld, okay, I typed it wrong for you. Test this instead "ufw allow 6667"
[13:20] <Ali_> llutz, but noone is answering
[13:20] <lithiumx> What sort of graphics card do I need to take full advantage of Compiz 3D effects, as well as playing HD movies? I'm not a heavy PC gamer, just the occassional OpenArena etc..
[13:20] <micr0x> silidan: system > hardware drivers > check if it's listed under there.
[13:20] <ryan__> with tcpdump is it possable to tell if mgcp calls are incomming or outgoing? I am in a callcenter and we need to find the concurrent out going calls and out pbx lives off site. Does anyone have any ideas how this could be done???
[13:20] <Ali_> anyone know the openoffice equivalent of the Selection object in MS?
[13:20] <blinkiz> c0ld, Then test with "ufw status". If it says disabled, you just type "ufw enable" and then "ufw status" again.
[13:20] <Valentina> leaf-sheep: Ok, llutz did suggest to test to move the script to that folder and replace path in cron job but it didn't work anyway.
[13:20] <silidan> joaopinto: i tryed that one on the live cd of ubuntu 9.10 64bit and it didnt bring up the xserver again after logout!
[13:20] <c0ld> yah
[13:20] <c0ld> I did
[13:20] <Empathy> hello world im don't have video sound on default empathy messenger on ubuntu 9.10 karmic somebody can help me?
[13:20] <sil3nt|warri0r> hi
[13:20] <ryan__> or if you could recommend a better chanel to ask this question
[13:20] <c0ld> thanks a mill blinkiz
[13:20] <leaf-sheep> Valentina: I'm pretty certain it is because of the script.
[13:20] <blinkiz> c0ld, Glad to help. :)
[13:21] <leaf-sheep> Valentina: Fix the script and it should work.
[13:21] <Valentina> leaf-sheep: Yeah, I'm trying to do so.
[13:21] <Pici> ryan__: ##networking perhaps?
[13:21] <Tuju> how in ubuntu one can run a tool with root permissions without sudo? Fedora has this 'consolehelper' tool to solve this.
[13:21] <micr0x> Ali_: #openoffice.org
[13:21] <ikonia> Tuju: you use sudo
[13:21] <USH-6150> Is it possible to install, say, mplayer in ubuntu server and have it output videos to tv-out without installing X/X11/Xorg?
[13:21] <xur1z> gksudo may b what u mean
[13:21] <Ali_> micr0x, i'm there - no answer
[13:21] <joaopinto> silidan, the CD is not a proper test case, there are some modules that may be needed to be reloaded after the driver install, reboot is advised, which will not work for the cd :)
[13:21] <sil3nt|warri0r> i just updated to 9.10 from 9.04 (kde)
[13:22] <ikonia> USH-6150: it stil needs an X server to run the gui
[13:22] <sil3nt|warri0r> but the snd is not working, i dont know how to chk for errors
[13:22] <silidan> joaopinto: ok, but if it fails how can i get my xserver back working?
[13:22] <sil3nt|warri0r> any help plz
[13:22] <voidprayer> is ubuntu using fstack-protector (ssp) in gcc building all dev packages?
[13:22] <voidprayer> s/dev/deb
[13:22] <joaopinto> silidan, you boot into rescue mode and remove the driver :)
[13:22] <ikonia> voidprayer: I don't believe it is, ssp's only been pushed in hardened distros
[13:22] <USH-6150> ikonia: Do you know if it.. stops X after any output is done?
[13:23] <ikonia> USH-6150: no, X will run until you kill it
[13:23] <voidprayer> ikonia, but i remember that ubuntu has a hardened toolchain team. they are not working for desktop edition? only server edition? or even server edition is not hardened.
[13:23] <blinkiz> Tuju, Hi there. I don't have the answer for you, but you should look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sudoers . You can add program in there that should always be allowed root access
[13:24] <Tuju> blinkiz: i already did, actually.
[13:24] <ikonia> voidprayer: honesty I'm not sure, I can't see it being in the desktop version, try #ubuntu-hardened for discussion
[13:24] <coi6644> hi guys
[13:24] <voidprayer> ikonia, thanks.
