[08:32] <rww> dude: why wouldn't you just use rtorrent for that :P
[08:33] <linuxfp> OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD
[08:33] <linuxfp> IT WORKS
[08:33] <whoppergator> rww: dude: exactly
[08:33] <FloodBot1> linuxfp: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:33] <linuxfp> AAAAAAAAAAAA
[08:33]  * rww facepalms
[08:33] <linuxfp> Sorry :/
[08:34] <linuxfp> I was excited
[08:34] <whoppergator> !return | linuxfp
[08:35] <linuxfp> So, I got into GDM, now what, there's no top panel
[08:35] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: sorry for late response, i would use it to "text" commands to my linux box via my cell (ancient i know) for some custom home automation stuff i rigged
[08:35] <gh0stpirate> hardware is done, all is built and ready to go, just need better interfacing
[08:36] <gh0stpirate> basicly a way to invoke bash scripts from my cell
[08:36] <Guest26485> ls
[08:37] <giacomo> buon giorno
[08:37] <linuxfp> Well, great, now it stopped working
[08:37] <Guest26485> sorry , who can use command 'chroot' in ubuntu?
[08:37] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: i'm assuming that you don't have a data plan... :P    have you considered just writing a bash script and setting up a cron job to check twitter every so often? that's old school too :)
[08:37] <linuxfp> Fatal server error: no screens found
[08:37] <giacomo> aiuto dopo aver scaricato aggiornamento non mi funziona piu' firefox come posso fare?
[08:37] <linuxfp> lolwut
[08:38] <rww> !it | giacomo
[08:38] <giacomo> grazie
[08:38] <Guest26485> i encountered some problems when using chroot
[08:39] <carrera> Greetings!
[08:40] <whoppergator> Guest26485: what problem are you encountering exactly?
[08:40] <whoppergator> carrera: hello.
[08:40] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: ive considered that, that would be fine however, id need an example of something that "complex" (never parsed anything before) but i though twitter added something called "O Auth" that made this impossible, a perfect example is something called "twitaction" if you google that you will see what im getting at, it was previously built in java i believe
[08:40] <Guest26485> me?
[08:42] <gh0stpirate> thought*
[08:42] <Guest26485> i am learning lfs , but i can't change the root dir to where i want
[08:42] <andrzej> andrew
[08:42] <andrzej> siema
[08:42] <glebihan> Guest26485, what error are you getting ?
[08:43] <Guest26485> the sys say " there is no such file /bin/bash"
[08:43] <whoppergator> Guest26485: this isn't the place for lfs, but you should actually ask a question
[08:44] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: did you get the chance to see what i meant?
[08:44] <Guest26485> i know , but this make me headach
[08:44] <whoppergator> Guest26485: that means that it can't find /bin/bash in your new root directory. have you mounted it if it is on a different drive?
[08:44] <Guest26485> could you tell me how to use
[08:44] <Guest26485> 'chroot'
[08:44] <Guest26485> yeah
[08:45] <Guest26485> oh , do you know the LFS
[08:46] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: i'm looking into it. :) give me a sec
[08:47] <Guest26485> ok , that is what am thinking , i want to build my own linux os according to LFS book , there is one step is separate the partion sda3 , so using chroot can achive this.
[08:47] <Guest26485> but it did not work
[08:47] <Guest26485> and i can not make any progress.
[08:48] <Guest26485> whoppergator: are you still in?
[08:48] <Guest26485> hi ,everybody , there is a challenge?
[08:49] <ranjan>  hi all, i have a HP dv4 with a synaptic touchpad. But its not at all responding and in the dmesg i am getting this error "psmouse.c: bad data from KBC - timeout"
[08:49] <Guest26485> whoppergator ; ok
[08:51] <whoppergator> Guest26485: so do you have your basic system set up already and you are just at the point of chrooting into your new system environment?
[08:51] <linuxfp> Will 10.04 have better support for my computer or no
[08:52] <dr0id> hey, is there some plugin for gedit or something that would allow me to upload the file I am working on via ftp to the server ?
[08:52] <dr0id> linuxfp: 10.04 is so old, use 11.10!
[08:52] <dr0id> 11.04*
[08:52] <linuxfp> dr0id: I'm desperate here, I can't get 11.04 to work on my main computer, though it used to for some reason
[08:53] <Guest26485> uh, my basic sys is ubuntu 11.04 , and my new sys is on building , and the new sys in a partion in old one
[08:53] <linuxfp> That or my CD was broken or something
[08:53] <MagicJ> installed 10.4 on a new netbook - it sees the internal audio - it even works - I am not seeing either the microphone jack nor the internal mic as options for inout - what do I need to all?
[08:54] <whoppergator> Guest26485: so you should double check that bash is installed in /bin/bash in your new system partition, since that is the error you are getting from chroot
[08:54] <linuxfp> Powershell will never be as awesome as bash
[08:55] <char> where are folks discussing how to gt firefox and java working?
[08:55] <dr0id> is bash the most awesome shell ? :P
[08:55] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: OAuth seems pretty heavy for what you need. do you need to give your server permissions to your account? or are you just looking to load your posts?
[08:56] <Guest26485> whoppergator:yeah , i think so , but the new one is on building , there are some steps to build a bash for new one! the guide let me use the command-chroot ,but it did not work?
[08:57] <Guest26485> whoppergator : and using this chroot , i can work in the dir -/mnt/lfs(my workplace where i build sys) , separate from the old sys
[08:57] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: simply looking to get it to read them, nothing more, there are existing twitter commandline clients if for any reason i wanted the other direction, but alas, nope. really simple in ANY way. i tweet "abc123" from whatever device, and my server executes "XYZbashscript" could this be done through EXTREME parsing or something?
[08:58] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: (so loading posts i guess lol)
[08:59] <Guest26485> whoppergtor:  neither
[08:59] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: yes, extreme parsing. i have used some decent php parsers for twitter tho! you can run these php scripts from the command line if you have php installed. i think that is how i would do it
[09:01] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: lol this is gunna be fun.... i guess welcome to my crash course in parsing, rocket science edition xD seems like it would be like parsing cnn.com or something lol. welcome to hell!!! thanks a billion man.
[09:02] <Guest26485> whoppergator: i am gona to go , have dinner! thanks anyway
[09:02] <Guest26485> exit
[09:02] <qdb> can you say to ubuntu com designers? i wish they write more comprehensive information about dvd. now only about languages is written. but it has packages and alternate installer, as i know
[09:02] <qdb> hello
[09:03] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: try looking into rss parsing too, there used to still be a way to get at the rss feed for a twitter account. let me know if i can help!
[09:03] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: i'll experiment with that now...
[09:04] <whoppergator> Guest53825: gl, have a good dinner! try people in the gentoo channels for help next. :P
[09:04] <whoppergator> Guest26485: gl, have a good dinner! try people in the gentoo channels for help next. :P  wrong recipient :(
[09:04] <dnivra> hello. I have a socks proxy running on localhost. how do I specify it to a terminal? I know that http proxies can specified by setting the env variable HTTP_PROXY. is there something similar for socks proxy?
[09:04] <qdb> can you say to ubuntu com designers? i wish they write more comprehensive information about dvd. now only about languages is written. but it has packages and alternate installer, as i know. do you think this is enough serious to report on launchpad?
[09:06] <char> anyone talking aoubt java flash and browsers?
[09:06] <whoppergator> dnivra: what are you trying to do?
[09:06] <whoppergator> char: do you have a question?
[09:07] <Myrtti> qdb: well it would suit launchpad better than this channel, that's for sure. Where in launchpad, I don't know, though.
[09:07] <qdb> Myrtti, thank you
[09:07] <dnivra> whoppergator: I'm on a network that filters traffic with destination ports other than 80. I need to connect to a different port of a machine outside the network. I have done it with applications using a socks proxy but how do I let a terminal know that such a proxy is running? most applications have a settings window where I can specify these details.
[09:09] <Taos> Does it make sence to have root, home, boot on sepearate partitions?
[09:09] <whoppergator> Taos: Yes!
[09:09] <Taos> whoppergator: which of those are logical?
[09:10] <MagicJ>   my netbook finds the internal audio - it does not see the internal mic or even the port to hang one on - what am I missing?
[09:12] <whoppergator> Taos: all of them? root is obviously on a partition. next, home could be on a separate partition so keep your data separate from your system and applications (you could also use a different filesystem here for performance). finally, boot should be separate for security; you don't even have to mount it unless you are updating your kernel
[09:14] <whoppergator> dnivra: i guess i'm confused what you are trying to do? why does the terminal need to know that a proxy is running?
[09:15] <dnivra> whoppergator: I'm trying to connect to port 2224 of a website. Normally the terminal sends it to the gateway machine of the network which filters the packets out since it's not bound to port 80.
[09:16] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: making some progress, incredably hard, turns out twitter started REMOVING rss. so even generating a feed of that was a task, thats done so far.
[09:16] <MagicJ> +
[09:16] <dnivra> whoppergator: i set up a socks proxy on my machine which forwards packets to a server which can connect to non-80 ports. but terminal doesn't know the proxy isn't running and so need to tell it about the proxy's existence.
[09:16] <whoppergator> dnivra: what are you using to connect? wget? a web browser?
[09:17] <dnivra> whoppergator: I'm trying to connect to port 2224 of a server.
[09:17] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: you should check if this code is still working: http://www.renownedmedia.com/codevault/php-code/php-codeigniter-twitter-reader-class/
[09:17] <dnivra> whoppergator: ssh to that port actually.
[09:19] <whoppergator> dnivra: oO, thank you. so you are using SSH. that's what needs to know about the proxy. try: http://blog.gidley.co.uk/2009/03/tunnelling-ssh-over-socks-proxy.html
[09:19] <dnivra> whoppergator: ah okay that's what you wanted to know. sorry I didn't mention that :)
[09:20] <whoppergator> dnivra: np. let me know if it works out.
[09:21] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: it would take some serious adaptation as twitter is no longer providing RSS,
[09:21] <I_AM_IN_ROOT> I would like to find out the total size of a large number of folders,but not every folder, on a network drive that is shared with py neighborhood - it there a command for that?
[09:21] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: but i have a plan ;)
[09:22] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: did you check out my link? i don't think it is using RSS
[09:22] <dnivra> whoppergator: is there some other way to specify this besides editing the ssh config fiel?
[09:22] <dnivra> s/fiel/file
[09:23] <linuxfp> Ugh this is the third time I tried reinstalling Ubuntu
[09:23] <linuxfp> Same problem
[09:23] <dnivra> whoppergator: I keep switching networks and so editing the file can be a bit painful :).
[09:24] <Mkaysi> gh0stpirate: Twitter provides RSS feeds.
[09:25] <whoppergator> Mkaysi: i think his point is that they are phasing them out
[09:25] <Mkaysi> gh0stpirate: https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.rss?screen_name=<username>
[09:25] <I_AM_IN_ROOT> I would like to find out the total size of a large number of folders,but not every folder, on a network drive that is shared with py neighborhood - it there a command for that?
[09:26] <linuxfp> Is it normal to hear short buzzing noises coming from your computer?
[09:26] <linuxfp> Like, for a half a second
[09:26] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: this may work as well? ftp://ftp.linuxjournal.com/pub/lj/listings/issue191/10695l1.txt
[09:27] <whoppergator> I_AM_IN_ROOT: check out 'du' in the man pages, esp the summary and human readable options.
[09:27] <gh0stpirate> Mkaysi: got it now, thank you!!
[09:27] <linuxfp> Ugh, I had more help from waiting 2 hours on a shitty unpopulated forum, bye.
[09:28] <whoppergator> dnivra: so let me understand what is going on better. there is some reason you can't directly ssh to a server? how does the local proxy help you?
[09:29] <Waldir> Hi everyone. I have ubuntu installed on a netbook through Wubi, but recently after I had to perform a forced shutdown, it stopped working
[09:30] <whoppergator> !attitude | linuxfp
[09:30] <abhishek> hey
[09:30] <I_AM_IN_ROOT> whoppergator, I was afraid that would be the only suggestion - I feel confident when I say that this command line entry,using du, is going to blow because of how long it will take me to enter it
[09:30] <Waldir> when it boots it says "mounting /dev on /root/dev failed: no such file or directory"
[09:30] <markke> Hello, anybody here is successfully running  this graphics card - ATI Technologies Inc NI Seymour [AMD Radeon HD 6470M]  - using either Catalyst or open-source FGLRX drivers. :)
[09:31] <abhishek> i m new help me install flash player on my ubuntu machine!!
[09:31] <Waldir> and the same error for /sys and /proc
[09:31] <Waldir> any ideas if this is recoverable?
[09:31] <dnivra> whoppergator: basically the link's step 1 is equivalent to "ssh -D <port> <server>". so there should be an equivalent for step 2 too right? it'd be better if I could know that step since I keep switching regularly between firewalled and non-firewalled networks :)
[09:31] <whoppergator> I_AM_IN_ROOT: so pass in a list of the files... there is no rule that you have to put it all in one gigantor line!
[09:32] <szal> markke: there's no such thing as "open-source FGLRX drivers" ;)
[09:32] <lotuspsychje> abhishek: open ubuntu software centre and install flash
[09:32] <szal> markke: the open-source driver is called 'radeon'
[09:32] <markke> szal: ok my bad, i was referring to the one here --> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[09:33] <markke> szal: Catalyt 11.8 is being a b***tch and it won't start. :(
[09:33] <whoppergator> dnivra: can you explain your situation again/in greater detail. i think we can get you going, i just don't think i understand
[09:33] <szal> markke: is that card in its compatibility list?
[09:33] <EskimoBob> hi, how can I find out what version of nvidia drivers I have installed. 270.41.06-0ubuntu1 is a useless number. I need the nvidia version 11.6 or what ever it is
[09:34] <szal> EskimoBob: there is no such nVidia version as you're looking for
[09:34] <Waldir> could anyone please help me? I can't understand this boot error :(
[09:34] <szal> EskimoBob: that's pretty obviously the v270 driver
[09:34] <EskimoBob> OK, thanx
[09:34] <markke> SEYMOUR isnowhere in the list, but I was hoping the open-source drivers still work for it and the page wasn't updated :D
[09:34] <lotuspsychje> Waldir: hold shift button at boot and try recovery boot
[09:35] <diegoviola> when is ubuntu shipping with Wayland please?
[09:35] <bunty> hi all.
[09:35] <diegoviola> instead of X
[09:35] <Waldir> lotuspsychje: it does reach the grub menu and I've tried every entry available
[09:35] <EskimoBob> my bad, I was looking for ATI driver version :)
[09:35] <szal> diegoviola: not in the near future, afaik
[09:35] <bunty> I just turned on my system and I get this http://pastebin.com/NbE0aLMD
[09:36] <Waldir> lotuspsychje: it gives the same error everytime, that it can't find /root/dev, /root/sys, /root/proc and /sbin/init
[09:36] <I_AM_IN_ROOT> whoppergator, well it is 31 file folders containing only video files and spread out with many folders in between . . . it is late and I am tired so I may just do it tomorrow on my roommates computer since it is the host of the drive and windows makes this operation wonderfully easy
[09:36] <bunty> my /boot is on /dev/sda1 and / on /dev/sd2 . I have already tried doing fsck on /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 but that didn't help.  Any ideas what my next step is ?
[09:36] <whoppergator> Waldir: can you mount the disk file from a linux live cd? at least then you could try and recover your data prior to reinstall
[09:36] <EskimoBob> szal: my bad, I was looking for ATI driver version actually :)
[09:37] <Waldir> whoppergator: what I need is about 2 dozen google chrome tabs I had open :( do you think that's written to the disk somewhere?
[09:37] <dud> does dpkg-reconfigure-mdadm delete my raid arrays?
[09:37] <whoppergator> I_AM_IN_ROOT: i would argue that in linux it is also easy, but perhaps it would be more time consuming for you to learn how if you are tired. as always, computers are there as a tool. if you know how to do it some other way, don't waste your time
[09:38] <whoppergator> Waldir: :( most likely, but it is probably going to be very hard to recover and then insert into a new install
[09:39] <Waldir> whoppergator: I don't mind, I really need that list of sites, cause I can't get to all of them from memory
[09:39] <bunty> anyone?
[09:39] <I_AM_IN_ROOT> god I hate linux, goodnight whoppergator and thanks
[09:40] <Waldir> I am trying to figure out where chrome stores session data... any ideas on how I could find that?
[09:40] <whoppergator> Waldir: maybe if you were able to recover the entire cache dir and copy it into exactly the same place in a new install? this is why i use a real partition as opposed to wubi
[09:40] <EskimoBob> in my gentoo box I have a x11-drivers/ati-drivers - how can I find a similar pkg in ubuntu?  - sudo apt-cache search ati | grep driver | grep ATI - looks like is nit the way to find it
[09:40] <Waldir> whoppergator: this is a netbook, I was only using it for serious work because iI was travelling :/
[09:41] <Waldir> whoppergator: I'll try to find that
[09:41] <szal> EskimoBob: the proprietary driver is called 'fglrx'
[09:41] <szal> !info fglrx
[09:42] <dr0id> hey, is there some plugin for gedit or something that would allow me to upload the file I am working on via ftp to the server ?
[09:42] <whoppergator> Waldir: yup. i completely sympathize. let me know if you need more. i don't know how the wubi disk file works in windows, but i imagine some sort of loop mounting would be the place to start
[09:42] <Waldir> whoppergator: loop mounting?
[09:43] <whoppergator> Waldir: that's how you mount a file like it is a disk partition
[09:43] <Waldir> oh right, it's not a partition... I am trying to boot from a live usb but now I'm unsure I'll be able to mount wubi's "partition" :/
[09:43] <Waldir> ah
[09:43] <markke> szal: what is the difference with the driver I DLed from ATI site and the ones that jockey pulls from the repo? Are they the same but packaged specifically for the Ubuntu version?
[09:44] <EskimoBob> szal: you ububntu people have ruin everything and rename stuff :) thanx for the help
[09:44] <whoppergator> Waldir: my thoughts: mount windows drive, find disk file, loop mount, hunt for chrome cache location on google, copy to safe place, reinstall
[09:44] <Waldir> hmm... anyone know if [Removable Dev.] in the boot device priority list of the boot setup stands for usb? cause I can't seem to book from my live usb
[09:45] <szal> markke: I have no friggin' idea about ATI other than that it exists ;)
[09:45] <Waldir> whoppergator: I recall I once used a program that was able to mount ext2 partitions in windows. not sure if they updated it to ext3
[09:46] <fdsfdg> how to setup hostname / dns prefix in ubuntu?
[09:46] <whoppergator> Waldir: ext3 and 4 are backwards compatible
[09:47] <Waldir> cool, I'll try to find that
[09:47] <whoppergator> Waldir: however, windows cannot loop mount that i am aware
[09:47] <markke> szal: ayt, I thought at least you might have some idea. :P
[09:47] <Waldir> maybe if I copy the wubi directory to my linux machine?
[09:48] <REK_007> any download managers for ubuntu ?
[09:48] <whoppergator> Waldir: ya, or you can use a live cd, copying would take a while
  aria2c from USC
[09:48] <REK_007> gulzar:  thank you am looking into it
[09:48] <REK_007> :)
[09:49] <Waldir> whoppergator: I am trying with a live usb cause the netbook doesn't take cds :/
[09:49] <Waldir> I managed to make it boot from usb but it's just saying "Boot error". I'll try to recreate the live usb
[09:49] <whoppergator> Waldir: :P that will work too...
[09:51] <whoppergator> bunty: did you ever get some help?
[09:53] <raven> grsync: trying to do this after rsync process touch ~/04-1,5-`date --rfc-3339=date` - it works on terminal but not out of rsync - any ideas?
[09:54] <thesuperlogical> anyone does know the best way to restore iptables configuration on boot? on a vps?
[09:55] <szal> !ics
[09:56] <fdsfdg> how to setup hostname / dns prefix in ubuntu?
[09:57] <whoppergator> fdsfdg: does it not just use your system hostname?
[09:57] <szal> thesuperlogical: save iptables config to a file and read it in on boot via rc.local; see the above webpage for details, directly above "Enable routing"
[09:58] <szal> thesuperlogical: to give you an idea, that is
[10:00] <fdsfdg> because  it's lame? to the topic, please
[10:00] <thesuperlogical> szal: thx - that /etc/network/interfaces thing does not work for me.... i'll go with that rc.local way
[10:01] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: AH HA lol, been forever, but figured out the most BONEHEAD answer to this whole parsing twitter thing to make it easy. so easy that im actually really disappointed with myself lmao
[10:01] <raven> grsync: trying to do this after rsync process touch ~/04-1,5-`date --rfc-3339=date` - it works on terminal but not out of rsync - any ideas?
[10:02] <fdsfdg> because of ~/?
[10:03] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: as long as i have predetermind input, example: (to run scripts) i always put the command between >>>>COMMAND<<<< it becomes an easy to find parsing job from the auto generated XML file. WIN. realtime, easy,efficient,no logons required!!
[10:04] <raven> fdsfdg, no the error is "unrecognized option --rfc-3339=date`
[10:04] <llutz> raven: don't use backquotes, use $(/bin/date --rfc-3339=date)
[10:05] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: sounds functional to me. :)
[10:05] <sharperguy> Hi. Is there a way I can hear the mic input on the speakers in real time with pulseaudio? I've been poking around with gnome volume control and pavucontrol but there doesn't seem to be an option.
[10:05] <fdsfdg> how to setup hostname / dns prefix in ubuntu?
[10:06] <llutz> !hostname | fdsfdg
[10:06] <raven> llutz, everything works but only running from rsync makes date forget about this rfc option!
[10:06] <llutz> raven: call date with full path and test again
[10:07] <fdsfdg> lol no gui? and what about dns?
[10:07] <raven> llutz, i did
[10:07] <yourstruly> yes
[10:07] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: now o teach myself basic parsing lol. (any commandline examples to store txt between (((command))) as a variable?)
[10:08] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: in what language :P
[10:08] <thesuperlogical> szal: It is working :) thx for the hint
[10:08] <Greyshadow1> Hi, I would like to know how can I install Windows 7, Windows XP and a Linux distro in the same computer.
[10:08] <Greyshadow1> I would like something like a grub that could direct to each one.
[10:08] <Greyshadow1> I can't do that, I tried.
[10:08] <fdsfdg> why my hostname is <IP_ADDRESS> and not <IP_ADDRESS>?
[10:09] <robin0800> sharperguy, try alsamixer in a terminal
[10:10] <thesuperlogical> Greyshadow1: First setup windows, then boot from an ubuntu cd / usb drive.... the setup will give you the options to setup ubuntu aside windows with dual boot
[10:10] <whoppergator> fdsfdg: check out /etc/hosts
[10:10] <sharperguy> robin0800, I don't really see anything helpful in there
[10:11] <robin0800> Greyshadow1, xp first 7 second and linux last
[10:11] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: something usuable in a bash script like sed or awk etc, whatever you think
[10:11] <whoppergator> sharperguy: isn't there a monitor option in the pulseaudio settings somewhere?
[10:11] <sharperguy> whoppergator, not that I've seen
[10:12] <fdsfdg> why Linux For Human Beings requires me to edit funny text files for such trivial operations?
[10:13] <artur__> a
[10:13] <phoque_uni> fdsfdg, why would you need a GUI for such a trivial operation?
[10:14] <whoppergator> sharperguy: sorry, i'm thinking of my gentoo box, which does have the option. i'll look around
[10:15] <Aple> Where's a good place to put program files in Ubuntu?
[10:15] <Phylock> is there an application with all the controls components, so I can see and test with the different themes?
[10:15] <phoque_uni> /opt/applicationname
[10:15] <OerHeks> Aple, if you are asked, i would choose /opt/
[10:16] <cyrax> Aple, i thinks /opt/
[10:16] <cyrax> *think
[10:16] <Aple> Thanks guys
[10:16] <Aple> Why opt out of curiosity
[10:16] <sharperguy> whoppergator, ok I ran "pactl load-module module-loopback" and that seemed to do it, although theres quite a high latency. Not a problem for me at the moment though.
[10:17] <Phylock> Aple - take a look at http://www.ubuntugeek.com/linux-or-ubuntu-directory-structure.html
[10:17] <OerHeks> Aple it is designed for that, like /tmp/ is for temporary files
[10:17] <whoppergator> sharperguy: pavucontrol has it also, just found it
[10:18] <sharperguy> whoppergator, could you tell me where?
[10:18] <shazzr> Just got a Samsung Galaxy S II. Connected it to my Ubuntu 10.04 computer, and Banshee fired up. It displayed in Banshee as devices the first time, but not the second time. Banshee fires up when I connect it, but it isn't displayd. I assume it is an issue with Ubuntu, since it worked the first time...
[10:18] <orated> I keep getting this error on cli during every install -debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog debconf: (Dialog frontend requires a screen at least 13 lines tall and 31 columns wide.) debconf: falling back to frontend: Readline . What is the error about? How do I fix it?
[10:18] <cyrax> Someone knows a software like Itunes under Ubuntu?
[10:19] <whoppergator> sharperguy: so install/run pavucontrol, then under input, go to the bottom selection menu and choose show all. you can then unmute the monitor
[10:20] <sharperguy> whoppergator, I see "Monitor of internal analog stereo" and "Internal analog stereo". Is it one of those?
[10:20] <skim1776> how to use bumblebee?
[10:20] <sharperguy> whoppergator, they were both unmuted already
[10:21] <Phylock> cyrax - there is a lot of music applications with basicaly the same functionallity, for example try rhythmbox, banshee or songbird
[10:21] <shazzr> oh...and it's 11.04.
[10:21] <cyrax> thank u very much Phylock
[10:21] <shazzr> Phylock: is Songbird still supported on linux?
[10:21] <skim1776> does anyone use bumblebee for juggling videocards?
[10:22] <sharperguy> whoppergator, not sure what I did but now theres about a 3 second delay :/
[10:22] <Phylock> shazzr - not sure havent updatet it for a while
[10:23] <Greyshadow1> Anyone can help me?
[10:23] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: any tuts or examples available yet? (sorry i know your slammed, this will just get me moving though ;))
[10:23] <whoppergator> sharperguy: crazy. that's worked for me in the past on other distributions, but it isn't working for me here either
[10:23] <skim1776> Greyshadow1, what's your problem?
[10:24] <Greyshadow1> I need have installed Windows XP, 7 and Ubuntu in the same computer.
[10:24] <Greyshadow1> And I want just one grub.
[10:24] <Greyshadow1> Not 2!
[10:24] <skim1776> why not virtual machine?
[10:25] <shazzr> Phylock: http://getsongbird.com/system-requirements.php
[10:25] <skim1776> does anybody have two graphic cards with ubuntu?
[10:25] <REK_007> any good GUI For ARIA2 which will help queing up downloads
[10:25] <Greyshadow1> skim1776: virtual machine for what?
[10:26] <OerHeks> Greyshadow1, install xp, then windows 7 ( i don't know if this is possible at all ) then installubuntu, this will install grub2 wich connects the 2 previous ones.
[10:26] <shazzr> Phylock: I think this is the "linux"-version - http://getnightingale.com/
[10:26] <Greyshadow1> OerHeks: but it redirects me to the Windows' "grub"
[10:26] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: i think for what you want to do you should just use 'grep' with the -o switch which only will return the matching result
[10:26] <Greyshadow1> not to each one windows directly
[10:27] <Greyshadow1> that is my problem
[10:27] <shazzr> Does anyone have a Samsung Galaxy S II which they sync podcasts with on Ubuntu? Mine doesn't show up as device in Banshee (except for the first time).
[10:27] <hoffel> hi @ all
[10:27] <Phylock> shazzr - your right songbird for linux is no longer part of the official songbird releases
[10:27] <hoffel> i've got a question
[10:28] <fdsfdg> Greyshadow1: windows needs windows loader to boot
[10:28] <hoffel> how can i install a package without installing all the dependencies?
[10:28] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: i'll research moar, but if it were (((command))) wouldn't grep also grab my "tags" ie// ((())) how would i exclude them?
[10:28] <phoque_uni> hoffel, what would it be good for?
[10:29] <hoffel> i only want to install a gtk theme but the package inclodes also themes for metacity so it trys to install the whole gnome-desktop just beacause of the gtk-theme i want
[10:29] <Greyshadow1> fdsfdg: so
[10:29] <Taos> Which one of these is logical [swap, boot, root, home]
[10:29] <Greyshadow1> Can I boot Ubuntu throug Windows boot?
[10:29] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: i'm lazy, so i would just pass it to sed or cut
[10:29] <Greyshadow1> fdsfdg: ^
[10:30] <fdsfdg> Greyshadow1: possibly with grub1, grub2 is too bloated to do it
[10:30] <hoffel> so is there a possibility to install a package without its depencies?
[10:30] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: Thanks for your help my friend, you gave me home automation using xml,grep and sed! ahaha sweet lol, have a good one man
[10:31] <waldir> whoppergator: my laptop froze, had to restart. I am finishing the live usb now and have already collected instructions on how to mount the wubi disk :)
[10:31] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: you too
[10:32] <Greyshadow1> fdsfdg: any how to for do that?
[10:32] <whoppergator> waldir: excellent, i'm glad you are getting closer
[10:34] <fdsfdg> Greyshadow1:  you copy  grub bootsector to file and add it to windows bootloDER list
[10:36] <whoppergator> hoffel: you should download the package individually, then try using dpkg with the --ignore-depends to get what you want
[10:37] <RajDev_King> Hi, Friends,,,Actually my ubuntu is so slow so how I can make it speedy...:)???
[10:39] <Phylock> RajDev_King - which version?
[10:40] <RajDev_King> Its 11.04
[10:40] <whoppergator> Greyshadow1: you can control the windows boot loader with easybcd, including reinstall if you overwrote with grub.
[10:42] <whoppergator> RajDev_King: what is slow? that question is too broad. speed can often be had at the expense of kernel flexibility, filesystem checks and squashed dirs.
[10:43] <mintie> I have the appropriate driver installed for my wireless WLAN card, but when I go to connect, it says "device not ready". What do I do?
[10:43] <RajDev_King> Actually, y'know wat..I am not exper in using ubuntu,,,and according to me my os is very slow,,,it hangs often..
[10:45] <whoppergator> RajDev_King: what are the system specifications of what you are running it on?
[10:47] <whoppergator> mintie: if you are sure that you have the correct driver, try checking for updates and rebooting?
[10:47] <waldir> whoppergator: ok I have the wubi disk mounted now, but when I navigate to ~/.config, the google-chrome directory (among others) shows up with an "x" overlay and its properties window says "Contents: unreadable". any idea how to overcome this?
[10:47] <mintie> whoppergator, yes. I contacted Realtek directly, and they guided me through the installation. It worked initially, and now for some reason it won't work, and this happened post-updating. Perhaps the update ruined it?
[10:48] <Phylock> RajDev_King - do you have an Nvidia card or a laser usb mouse?
[10:49] <RajDev_King> I'm having a laser usb mouse...
[10:50] <shazzr> Weird. Deleted the Banshee folder in ~/.config/ and now my Galaxy appeared as it should. Most likely a Banshee issue. Does anyone know?
[10:51] <whoppergator> mintie: it's very possible, and you might consider reverting, but also remember that some wireless cards have trouble coming out of sleep and others must have their physical switch turned on at boot.
[10:52] <mintie> whoppergator, mine isn't a physical switch one. I will run another update and give that a go, but how do I go about reverting if I need be?
[10:52] <mintie> if that need be*
[10:52] <whoppergator> waldir: try mounting it read-only. if that doesn't work, you should run a filesystem check and tell it to try and fix any errors.
[10:52] <waldir> whoppergator: nevermind, I copied it elsewhere and "chowned" it, it worked :)
[10:52] <Phylock> RajDev_King - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/764330 comment #56 has a possible fix
[10:53] <RajDev_King> Phylock: thankxx for suppor,,dude..:)
[10:53] <whoppergator> waldir: :)
[10:54] <Phylock> RajDev_King - but remember to read and verify that the symtoms is the same
[10:54] <jasonmsp> hey all.  Silly question, but how do I make a screenshot in 11.04?  Google search was pretty disappointing.
[10:55] <solid_liq> jasonmsp, print screen ;)
[10:55] <salvatore> good morning everybody
[10:55] <salvatore> anybody can help me
[10:55] <salvatore> with lamp config?
[10:55] <whoppergator> Phylock: if you are right about RajDev_King then you made a great diagnosis with very little info. good going!
[10:56] <jasonmsp> solid_liq:  thanks.  Normally that is ctrl + the key but its not working.
[10:56] <solid_liq> jasonmsp, that's for capturing just the window
[10:57] <technikfreak> hello, a friend of mine had an ubuntu pc and would have access to it ia a webbowser from his work
[10:57] <jasonmsp> solid_liq:  Sans the ctrl key and it works..  Thanks!
[10:57] <technikfreak> like a vpn over webborswer
[10:57] <solid_liq> jasonmsp, np
[10:57] <whoppergator> !lamp | salvatore
[10:58] <technikfreak> is there a solution that covers that?
[10:58] <salvatore> thank you
[10:59] <salvatore> actually i am trying to mkove my database folder of mysql on dropbox, to be sync on other device too
[10:59] <salvatore> but i got problem with phpmyadmin
[10:59] <salvatore> when i try to authenticate
[11:00] <salvatore> i got this message:
[11:00] <xbmcuser> my ubuntu sleeps after 10 mins even though power management is set to off.. Any ideas?
[11:00] <salvatore> The requested URL /phpmyadmin/index.php was not found on this server.
[11:00] <salvatore> any help?
[11:02] <whoppergator> salvatore: sounds to me the webserver cannot see the phpmyadmin files. you should both check the permissions of your web directory to make sure that apache can read there, and make sure that the files are in the correct location
[11:02] <Phylock> salvatore - check the location of phpmyadmin files on the server, do the webserver have access to the files?
[11:03] <salvatore> let me check
[11:04] <whoppergator> mintie: the process to revert depends on exactly what you are using now, and what you where using before. i didn't catch if you mentioned that info earlier. let me know if it's neccessary.
[11:04] <d3vic3> is removing upstart safe in ubuntu?
[11:04] <salvatore> Phylock
[11:05] <bigtail> ..
[11:05] <Phylock> salvatore
[11:05] <salvatore> when you intend my www directory
[11:05] <salvatore> when say webserver?
[11:06] <o0splitpaw0o> when you say WWHAT!
[11:06] <whoppergator> technikfreak: OpenVPN uses the same security protocol as secure websites, and can operate over a single port. Did you have something more specific in mind? What is your friend's use case?
[11:07] <salvatore> i moved my www folder and mysql folder on dropbox
[11:07] <salvatore> modyfied my.cnf
[11:07] <skim1776> which vim plugins do you use for rails development?
[11:07] <technikfreak> yeah he does only have access to the internet with a webbrowser
[11:07] <technikfreak> he is an electri cguy in an hospital
[11:07] <whoppergator> d3vic3: how would you even do this? i would not consider that safe.
[11:08] <salvatore> and settings on apache2 configuration
[11:08] <technikfreak> so hw would go than over the webbrowser to maybe a dyndns adress to its home pc
[11:08] <salvatore> in my dropbox i got then
[11:08] <xbmcuser> no takers on power management issue. All settings to never, yet ten mins idle and the display sleeps
[11:08] <technikfreak> without any software installation on the pc that he had at work
[11:08] <skim1776> does anyone use vim for rails development?
[11:09] <salvatore> one datafolder with databases
[11:09] <salvatore> and one www folder
[11:09] <salvatore> with all project
[11:09] <whoppergator> technikfreak: does he want to browse the internet as if he was a home (socks)? or does he want to get access to a terminal at home (ssh)? or does he need files from his home computer (scp)?
[11:09] <whoppergator> !return | salvatore
[11:10] <waldir> whoppergator: yaaaaaaaaay I got my tabs back :D :D :D :D :D :D
[11:10] <technikfreak> he want to have acesss to its home pc like remote desktop or vnc
[11:10] <technikfreak> but over a website
[11:10] <Phylock> salvatore - try to turn on directory listing, and see which directory is actualy served
[11:10] <d3vic3> whoppergator: i hate that upstart thing but nothing to do with yeah
[11:11] <whoppergator> waldir: w00t!!!
[11:11] <waldir> whoppergator: thanks a bunch for the help! now I'll load all the tabs on firefox which actually syncs open tabs :D
[11:12] <Phylock> [13:05:33] <salvatore> when say webserver? <-- not sure what your quastion is?
[11:12] <salvatore> Sorry. Everything seems to work. If i write the url of a simple html file, stored o my localhost, it works
[11:12] <salvatore> problem is with phpmyadmin
[11:13] <whoppergator> d3vic3: reverting to the older sysinit method would be a huge project, and definitely not "safe" for your data.
[11:13] <alien__> ls
[11:14] <fuzzybunny69y> Hey guys!! Has anyone here used Midnight commander before? I am moving files and there is a directory/file that exists already in the location I am trying to move stuff to and it is asking if I want to "overwrite the target" and then my options are: yes, no and append. I am just wondering what the append option does
[11:15] <fuzzybunny69y> if anyone can help I will love you forever
[11:15] <irgendwer4711> hi, I have another problem with Bug #193507 ; this problem occures with BLK_DEV_INITRD enabled too
[11:16] <salvatore> the error message i got is:The requested URL /phpmyadmin/index.php was not found on this server. I checked in that folder and no index.php is located. But i found one in : /usr/share/phpmyadmin. Is that the file i am looking for? i tryed to copy it but cannot
[11:17] <irgendwer4711> salvatore: there must be a symlink
[11:17] <iceroot_> salvatore: /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf there is an alias which needs to be enabled
[11:17] <irgendwer4711> or alias
[11:17] <iceroot_> salvatore: and there needs to be a symlink to that file from /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/
[11:18] <whoppergator> technikfreak: that is not something i've seen done before, but that doesn't mean it's not possible! a google search yields this apparently. you should check it out: http://www.thinvnc.com/index.html
[11:19] <technikfreak> yeah but it needs wine
[11:19] <haychis> Can anyone help me with my VPN connecting problems? Google has been no help so far ...
[11:20] <technikfreak> so i will search if somehting exist with a ntive linux
[11:20] <technikfreak> haychis, whats the problem
[11:20] <salvatore> i already modified the DocumentRoot in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default ....is there other values to check?
[11:21] <haychis> technikfreak: if I tick 'use this connection only for resources on its network' for a PPTP connection via network-manager, i cannot ping the remote network. If it's unticked, it works as it should, but an using the remote networks internet.
[11:22] <whoppergator> technikfreak: basically then, you should try to embed a normal java vnc viewer in a webpage. then you can even use the built-in vino server
[11:22] <salvatore> iceroot: what to modify in /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf?
[11:22] <technikfreak> thatsver y good
[11:23] <axel> Hello! I want to set up a computer with an HDD and a SDD. The root-directory will be on the SDD and /home on the HDD. How to get the config-files to the SSD?
[11:23] <axel> So far the only way I know is to create partitions for each directory that should be put on the SSD and create mountpoints for this directories in /home.
[11:23] <axel> Is there a more elegant way for this (that is also easy to backup/sync?)
[11:23] <whoppergator> haychis: this sounds like a routing issue in the config. also, be aware that splitting your connections like this can open up security vulnerabilities.
[11:24] <iceroot_> salvatore: there is a line with alias in it which should start with #. remove the #
[11:24] <iceroot_> salvatore: and dont change the default DocumentRoot from apache
[11:25] <haychis> whoppergator: not worried about security at this stage, will lock it down later... It used to work fine with openvpn, but the server at work has changed and its now a PPTP server ...
[11:25] <salvatore> what you intend with alias? i changed DocmentRoot because i moved my www folder to dropbox
[11:26] <whoppergator> axel: i'm not sure exactly what you want to happen, but mount default configurations are handled in /etc/fstab. does that help?
[11:27] <z3l> Hello. I have recently installed ubuntu and apache2 webserver with php support. I have created a virtualhost and edited the hosts file, when I accessed the web I got 403 error. I have set the chmod of site directory to a+x and now I can only see blank page. I have created a txt file and I can access it, however when I access php files I just see it blank.
[11:27] <oCean> salvatore: when installing phpmyadmin, it should create a /etc/apache2/conf.d/phpmyadmin.conf file
[11:27] <z3l> Any suggestions on what can I do to solve this ?
[11:28] <oCean> salvatore: in your apache2.conf should be an include line to include all these files in apache2/conf.d
[11:28] <whoppergator> haychis: are you pinging the network via ip or hostname?
[11:28] <haychis> whoppergator: ip
[11:29] <axel> whoppergator: Thanks for the answer. I'd have edited it to configure the mountpoints. The  issue is: The system  (including the programms) should be stored  on the SSD, the /home-directory on the HDD. So far so easy. It gets complicated when the config-files (.*) from the /home-directory should be stored on the SSD.
[11:29] <salvatore> oCean i havent got /etc/apache2/conf.d/phpmyadmin.conf
[11:29] <glebihan> z3l, is mod_php enabled ?
[11:29] <oCean> salvatore: did you install the software from the ubuntu repositories?
[11:30] <z3l> glebihan: Yes, it is. Phpmyadmin works like a charm.
[11:30] <whoppergator> haychis: i'll just run through my checklist then. first, what is the route configuration, and second, do you have these two networks on different addressing schemes
[11:30] <salvatore> i wrote apt-get install phpmyadmin
[11:31] <whoppergator> axel: it sounds to me like you might be talking about merged filesystems, in which case you need to look into aufs
[11:31] <DXBLouie> i've been running Ubuntu Natty (11.04) for a while (upgraded from earlier release) and it has Evolution mail client v2.32.2, while the stable release of evolution is v3.0.2.. any reason why the ubuntu repositories are far behind, or shall i just add the repositories for the latest evolution (if i can find them) and upgrade without any known hassles?
[11:31] <glebihan> z3l, did you try changing the error_reporting configuration directive to get more output (or check the logs) ?
[11:31] <oCean> salvatore: but you do have an /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf ?
[11:31] <whoppergator> axel: haha, actually that's too much, try just using clever symlinking.
[11:32] <salvatore> yes
[11:33] <axel> whoppergator: ln -s ?
[11:33] <haychis> whoppergator: i'll go through the IP4 settings, cause i think thats where the problems lies. work - 192.168.0.*, gateway .1 , this computer 192.168.3.*, gateway .1 , both <IP_ADDRESS>. Method: Automatic (VPN). Routes: NONE. Ignore auto obtained routes unticked. Natty, all latest updates
[11:34] <oCean> salvatore: very strange that the other link was not created. It should have been created at install. You can create it:   sudo ln -s /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/phpmyadmin.conf
[11:34] <whoppergator> axel: yeah that should get the job done if you just want a folder or file to point somewhere else.
[11:34] <z3l> glebihan: I dont know where can I check the logs. I have recently decided to move into linux os from windows. I have chosen ubuntu as it is the most user-friendly distro, so I am a very beginner.
[11:34] <haychis> whoppergator: I can connect with win7 no problems and no special routes etc
[11:35] <glebihan> z3l, the log is in /var/log/apache2/error_log
[11:35] <z3l> glebihan: I believe php files are not being processed, because I can just simply write a text and it doesn't output.
[11:35] <whoppergator> haychis: yeah windows has a completely different way of handling default routing
[11:35] <oCean> salvatore: also, when you run this:   grep -i include /etc/apache2/apache2.conf |grep -v ^#     several lines should show, and 1 should be  Include conf.d/
[11:36] <oCean> z3l: but phpmyadmin is working just fine?
[11:37] <salvatore> yes, i seed
[11:37] <z3l> glebihan: Failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line. How can I set right permissions for the whole folder with subfolders and its files.
[11:37] <salvatore> see
[11:37] <oCean> salvatore: have you created the link?
[11:37] <salvatore> yes i didi
[11:37] <axel> whoppergator: 0_0 It's so easy? I'm impressed. Thank you!
[11:37] <oCean> salvatore: I think you have to restart the apache2 server:  sudo service apache2 restart
[11:37] <glebihan> z3l, sudo chmod -R +r /path/to/folder
[11:38] <glebihan> z3l, this will give read access to all users on all the files in the folder
[11:38] <haychis> whoppergate: when i try to set a route im getting this in the log when split tunnelling .. "(ppp0): failed to set IPv4 route: Netlink Error (errno = Invalid argument)"
[11:38] <z3l> glebihan: Thank you, do you know any site where I can find useful commands /
[11:39] <salvatore> done...you think it should work?
[11:39] <whoppergator> haychis: what is your route command?
[11:39] <glebihan> z3l, you mean basic shell commands, that kind of things ?
[11:39] <oCean> z3l: help.ubuntu.com is useful, and this is a nice book to begin with: http://ubuntu-manual.org/  (free download)
[11:40] <oCean> salvatore: test it? And keep an eye on the logs in /var/log/apache2
[11:40] <salvatore> oCean, now i got this message: Wrong permissions on configuration file, should not be world writable!
[11:41] <glebihan> z3l, also plenty of resources there : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[11:41] <oCean> salvatore: well, something messed up your installation. I'm not sure which configuration file? What is the permissions on /etc/phpmyadmin/apache2.conf? Should be 644
[11:41] <milen8204> hello
[11:41] <haychis> whoppergate: im doing it through the nm gui. \
[11:42] <salvatore> i check but i am givin 777 to all
[11:42] <oCean> salvatore: that is not a clever thing to do
[11:42] <glebihan> salvatore, that's the problem, you should not
[11:42] <z3l> glebihan: Now it outputs the page, however when I require smarty class I still have Permission denied, does it mean I have to set chmods to all directories in my main folder?
[11:43] <oCean> salvatore: that messed up your permissions
[11:43] <haychis> whoppergate: ok I worked it out. IP4 routes <IP_ADDRESS>, mask <IP_ADDRESS>, gateway (of my network) <IP_ADDRESS>, metric 1. and its working with split tunnel. Is this right ?\
[11:43] <glebihan> z3l, you have to give read access to any folder/file the server needs to access to the user apache2
[11:43] <salvatore> i thought that 777 gives all privileges
[11:44] <whoppergator> haychis: hmm, maybe don't pick method automatic, and go straight for PPTP?
[11:44] <glebihan> salvatore, it does, and it's not a good thing for configuratiion files
[11:44] <oCean> salvatore: yes, but several linux programs check that the security/permissions is not set too open.
[11:44] <haychis> whoppergate: it is PPTP via NM. That's what I chose when I set up the connection...
[11:44] <z3l> glebihan: Is there any fast method to set chmods to any folder/file with just one command?
[11:44] <oCean> salvatore: linux has lots of security systems build in. Don't mess with that, such workaround always end in error
[11:45] <domedagen> Anyone in here uses SDL? What IDE are you using? I know for example that NetBeans and Allegro isn't a perfect match
[11:45] <salvatore> is it that the problem then with this issue: Wrong permissions on configuration file, should not be world writable?
[11:45] <glebihan> z3l, well you should not do that, only give access to the folders you need the server to access
[11:45] <z3l> glebihan: Ok, thank you.
[11:45] <oCean> salvatore: yes
[11:45] <glebihan> z3l, in a basic configuration, "sudo chmod -R +r /var/www" should be enough
[11:46] <whoppergator> haychis: oh, i just caught your last. is it working now? also, a metric of 1 is really low
[11:46] <salvatore> what permission config i need to give?
[11:46] <haychis> whoppergate: what should I set it too ?
[11:46] <gh0stpirate> can someone look at this really small basic bash script and tell me what im messing up with grep, i just want to find any text contained in "    ((( and )))" and print it to results.txt
[11:46] <glebihan> salvatore, 644
[11:46] <gh0stpirate> http://paste.ubuntu.com/671602/
[11:46] <oCean> salvatore: there are *many* configurationfiles. Some have 644, some have other permissions
[11:47] <haychis> whoppergate: now my local net is not working, though I can ping remote network
[11:48] <love4linux> can someone help me with this configure error that I get http://paste.ubuntu.com/671604/
[11:48] <oCean> gh0stpirate: you have to escape the (  like   grep \(\(\(
[11:49] <whoppergator> haychis: ya according to everything i've read online if the server is properly configured then ubuntu shouldn't need custom routes. have you gone over the server config?
[11:49] <gh0stpirate> oCean: what do you mean "escape"? whats with the backslashes?
[11:50] <oCean> gh0stpirate: the backslashes indeed
[11:50] <salvatore> ok. Actually, as i told, database and www folder are located on a dropbox. I will have to access to those file frome anoter device with wamp serve. Might this 644 permission cause rouble to access from the windows machine?
[11:50] <gh0stpirate> oCean: i'll try that, but why are the needed? (like the theory, i dont understand)
[11:51] <haychis> whoppergate: sorry, working now. had to change gateway to remote network address. pinging remote network and local net working ok. added route <IP_ADDRESS> mask: <IP_ADDRESS> gateway: <IP_ADDRESS>, without the route, split tun does not work.
[11:52] <oCean> gh0stpirate: in your case you want to grep the actual parentheses, if not escaped, they'll be interpreted in a different way
[11:52] <glebihan> love4linux, did you install package libglib2.0-dev
[11:53] <gh0stpirate> oCean: so for my script, it would be:    grep /(/(/(/*/)/)/) Idea_foundry.xml >>results.txt?
[11:54] <haychis> whoppergate: sorry, working now. had to change gateway to remote network address. pinging remote network and local net working ok. added route <IP_ADDRESS> mask: <IP_ADDRESS> gateway: <IP_ADDRESS>, without the route, split tun does not work.
[11:54] <glebihan> gh0stpirate, use backslashes
[11:54] <love4linux> glebihan yes.. both packets that come up when I search with 'libglib2.0-dev' are installed
[11:55] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: wow my connection just dropped, does this help? look at what this does: echo 'testing(((cool)))testing' | grep -o '(((.*)))' | sed 's/(((//' | sed 's/)))//'
[11:55] <love4linux> glebihan i try to locate glib-config but it comes up with nothing
[11:55] <haychis> whoppergate: done tests working ok. thanks for ur help
[11:56] <whoppergator> haychis: sorry i wasn't more helpful. i'm glad you're up
[11:56] <salvatore> ok. Actually, as i told, database and www folder are located on a dropbox. I will have to access to those file frome anoter device with wamp serve. Might this 644 permission cause rouble to access from the windows machine?
[11:56] <glebihan> love4linux, ubottu seems to find it in a package but I doubt it's the right one....
[11:57] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: i dont understand the black magic at work here man, but thats great!!!!!!
[11:57] <mgandtl> hi everyone, but I need some step-by-step instructions for creating a launchpad ppa. Is here where  I go, or does launchpad have a channel?
[11:57] <glebihan> !find glib-config | love4linux
[11:57] <love4linux> glebihan that for audio files?!
[11:58] <glebihan> love4linux, yes...
[11:58] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: to apply that in a file kinda way, it would be grep>sed>results.txt correct?
[11:59] <love4linux> glebihan ok I installed that one as well and rerun ./configure but the same error comes up so its not the proper file
[11:59] <glebihan> love4linux, could you run "glib-config --version", just to check that it's there
[12:00] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: yeah, or maybe: VARIABLE=$(grep -o '(((.*)))' | sed 's/(((//' | sed 's/)))//') in your case
[12:01] <love4linux> glebihan Here is the output http://paste.ubuntu.com/671609/
[12:01] <pointedarrow> who made the last update for ubuntu_
[12:02] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: sorry yeah that's if you want a $VARIABLE, otherwise you can do that and go to a file
[12:02] <bazhang> pointedarrow, whats the real question
[12:02] <glebihan> love4linux, what version of ubuntu are you running  ?
[12:02] <pointedarrow> it messed up my lubuntu majorly, I cannot boot
[12:02] <love4linux> glebihan latest one, 11.04
[12:03] <pointedarrow> it boots up to a black screen with message; Bash like line editing supported, and someting with grub. press tab for command options
[12:04] <pointedarrow> I have tried to istall grub from rescatux live cd, but no improvement
[12:04] <BobSapp> Anyone know the command to install a xfce4 desktop in ubuntu?
[12:04] <iceroot_> BobSapp: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[12:04] <bazhang> BobSapp, the xubuntu-desktop package
[12:04] <BobSapp> thanks iceroot_ /bazhang
[12:05] <pointedarrow> I have a strong suspicion it is something with gonme and kernel update
[12:05] <BobSapp> did you update to kernel 3.0?
[12:06] <glebihan> love4linux, weird... the glib-config tool used to be in package "libglib1.2-dev", but is not there in "libglib2.0-0"
[12:06] <pointedarrow> hmm, well I have done all updates and the lates one today messed it up
[12:06] <bazhang> BobSapp, since its not released until 11.10, no
[12:06] <TVquest> is there a command that will show available audio mixer devices?
[12:06] <pointedarrow> alsamixer in termnal
[12:06] <love4linux> glebihan so i have the package installed but I cant find it?
[12:07] <pointedarrow> TVqest, type in alsamixer_
[12:07] <glebihan> love4linux, according to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4451973, you would have to manually install the old libglib1.2-dev package
[12:08] <pointedarrow> TVquest, sorry lol, type in alsamixer in terminal, lots to mess with there
[12:08] <TVquest> thanks
[12:10] <pointedarrow> am I forced to do a full reinstallation now_
[12:10] <pointedarrow> ?
[12:10] <shinsuke> hi. i think i once saw an ascii based window manager. is there really one?
[12:11] <pointedarrow> is it possible to launch a sfck from live cd_
[12:11] <love4linux> glebihan so where can I find the libglib1.2 and install it?
[12:12] <love4linux> glebihan and should I uninstall the newer version?
[12:12] <whoppergator> gh0stpirate: i'm going to crash, good luck with the scripting!
[12:13] <glebihan> love4linux, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib1.2/1.2.10-19build1
[12:13] <gh0stpirate> whoppergator: me 2 man, frusterated tierd
[12:13] <gh0stpirate> goodnight brothers!
[12:13] <glebihan> love4linux, and yes you should probably uninstall the new version
[12:14] <glebihan> love4linux, btw you'll probably have to install from source as it hasn't been built for natty (or any release since hardy for that matter)
[12:14] <pointedarrow> how to launch a fsck filechek?
[12:14] <IdleOne> !fsck
[12:15] <pointedarrow> IdleOne, is it possible from live cd?
[12:15] <love4linux> glebihan hmmm sounds too much for just one program
[12:15] <pointedarrow> booting is majorly messed up here
[12:16] <killown> There is some tool like usb-creator-gtk for make windows xp ISO bootable?
[12:16] <glebihan> love4linux, what are you trying to build btw?
[12:17] <IdleOne> killown: ask in ##windows
[12:17] <IdleOne> pointedarrow: don't know to be honest.
[12:17] <gh0stpirate> last desperate try of an idiot. http://paste.ubuntu.com/671614/ someone please tell me why my little bash script is making me eat my own %^&*()
[12:17] <love4linux> glebihan I am trying to build netdude ( http://netdude.sourceforge.net/download.html )
[12:19] <glebihan> love4linux, it looks kinda outdated... it only runs with gtk1, not gk2
[12:19] <glebihan> gtk2
[12:20] <love4linux> glebihan yeah I know but is the only packet-editor with GUI that I found wanted to test is for my project
[12:21] <tswboro> hi can someone help me with installing ubuntu
[12:21] <glebihan> love4linux, there's very little chance you'll get it to work imo
[12:21] <Afflicto> Hello everyone
[12:21] <tswboro> i currently have windows installed and am trying to install ubuntu 11.04 on another partition
[12:22] <tswboro> my disks are set up in raid 0
[12:22] <love4linux> glebihan downgrading the GTK now i think is too much for me now.. I guess it will probably cause future problems with other newer programs that require gtk2, right?
[12:22] <Afflicto> I'm trying to install ubuntu but my mouse and keyboard won't work. Please help.
[12:22] <glebihan> love4linux, yes, that would be a very bad idea
[12:22] <tswboro> why wont ubuntu show up my raid when i go to install it?
[12:23] <love4linux> glebihan okays.. I will leave it as it is then.. no need to cause any misconfigurations on my ubuntu right now. thank you for helping me out
[12:24] <glebihan> love4linux, you're welcome
[12:24] <DXBLouie> guys is there a way to use Ubuntu Classic Desktop on Ubuntu 11.04 with Gnome 3?
[12:24] <DXBLouie> once Gnome 3 was installed, the classic option was no longer there
[12:24] <glebihan> DXBLouie, classic is gnome2
[12:24] <bazhang> DXBLouie, gnome3 is completely unsupported
[12:25] <DXBLouie> i upgraded in hopes evolution 3.0.2 would work better.. now i wish i didn't
[12:25] <gh0stpirate> last desperate try of an idiot. http://paste.ubuntu.com/671614/ someone please tell me why my little bash script is making me eat my own %^&*(
[12:25] <DXBLouie> can i revert back somehow?
[12:25] <tswboro> is this the channel to ask ubuntu questions in?
[12:25] <ikonia> tswboro: yes
[12:25] <bazhang> DXBLouie, no downgrade, just reinstall
[12:25] <ikonia> gh0stpirate: pleaes tone down the language
[12:26] <ikonia> gh0stpirate: try the channel #bash for scripting help
[12:26] <robin0800> tswboro, have you the alternate cd?
[12:27] <tswboro> how can install ubuntu 11.04 on a raid 0?
[12:27] <ikonia> tswboro: you don't want to do that,
[12:27] <tswboro> i really do
[12:27] <ikonia> tswboro: are you using fakeraid (motherboard raid)
[12:28] <Myrtti> gh0stpirate: you've got the hashbang wrong
[12:28] <tswboro> i have no idea if its fakeraid :S
[12:29] <ikonia> tswboro: is it motherboard raid ?
[12:29] <tswboro> ye
[12:29] <ikonia> gh0stpirate: the CMD options are also wrong
[12:29] <ikonia> tswboro: then it's fakeraid, and I assure you, you do not wish to install a.) to fakeraid b.) to raid 0
[12:29] <tswboro> why not?
[12:30] <ikonia> tswboro: 1.) fakeraid has terrible linux support and is not easy to manage/work with (if it even works) 2.) raid 0 will cause issues as you can't have /boot on it, and the slightest issues with your file system and your machine is ruined
[12:30] <tswboro> damn
[12:31] <tswboro> looks like i will have to install it on a vm
[12:33] <nemetroid> hi, i'm trying to install natty over netboot (using tftpd32 on windows). it boots neatly to the install menu, but when i select "standard install" (or what it's called), i get a message stating "invalid or corrupt kernel" almost instantly. the tftpd32 log reveals that the entire kernel doesn't even finish sending before this happens, the booting computer stops sending ACKs after about 32 KiB.
[12:33] <nemetroid> any ideas? :)
[12:34] <ikonia> nemetroid: try a different tftp server
[12:36] <fasta> With the latest kernel update my machine stopped booting.
[12:37] <squid2> hello all
[12:37] <shinsuke> i am looking for a way to stream audio files to a single person. what do you propose? thanks
[12:37] <fasta> Which kernel does work?
[12:37] <fasta> All of my previous kernels also do not work.
[12:37] <IdleOne> the one you were using before the update
[12:37] <IdleOne> hmm
[12:37] <fasta> IdleOne: I am now running from the livecd.
[12:39] <fasta> IdleOne: any idea?
[12:39] <jnich20> hello i have a major problem in that i went to try to install 10.4 insterad of 11.04 to see if it would solve a graphics issue i was having andthe instalation failed halway through and it will no longer boot from a cd i just get a flashing cursor so if anyone knows anywhere to look for help it would be much appretiated
[12:40] <IdleOne> fasta: provide a little more detail as to what you are seeing when trying to boot, any errors? someone in here might know
[12:40] <Afflicto> Isn't there anyone who can show me an ubuntu that works with my keyboard and mouse? DO I need to try another distro? like Mint?
[12:40] <fasta> IdleOne: it says that some file related to ufw firewall is not found.

[12:41] <Soulis77-SE> Is this a hacking attempt when I find this in the auth.log  file?
[12:42] <Afflicto> Slacker: My mouse\keyboard doesn't work in ubuntu (latest).
[12:42] <nemetroid> ikonia: ok, i tried another tftp server (winagents) and i get the same problem, the booting computer says "invalid or corrupt kernel image" while the tftp server window still says "transferring file"
[12:42] <|Slacker|> Afflicto: ok but are they wireless or just ordinary ones
[12:42] <Afflicto> Ordinary
[12:42] <Afflicto> USB
[12:42] <|Slacker|> weird
[12:43] <Afflicto> Lots of people have the problem, nobody knows the solution though.
[12:43] <|Slacker|> i see
[12:43] <|Slacker|> Afflicto: have you update the system?
[12:43] <Afflicto> mouse\keyboard worked fine while live testing on the USB flashdrive, also when installing. but
[12:43] <ikonia> nemetroid: have you tried a different kernel,
[12:43] <|Slacker|> nevermind
[12:43] <Afflicto> Slacker: Update?
[12:43] <|Slacker|> Afflicto: nevermind...I was thinking something else
[12:44] <Afflicto> I just installed it on a blank HDD on my other machine.
[12:44] <Afflicto> from the USB flash thing.
[12:44] <Afflicto> Oh and btw, I downloaded ubuntu 10 too, to see if it would work. But it won't boot.
[12:44] <|Slacker|> 0.o
[12:44] <nemetroid> ikonia: hmm, i haven't, where should i look for another one?
[12:45] <cruelman> where can i give turkish help
[12:45] <|Slacker|> Afflicto: that's strange, I have a usb mouse and it works ok on my netbook
[12:45] <ikonia> nemetroid: different distro
[12:45] <|Slacker|> lemme think a bit

[12:46] <jnich20> sorry to interupt convesations but i cannot acces any boot cds even ones that i know worked in the past i goe nothing at all if there was an error id know where to llok
[12:46] <Afflicto> yea
[12:46] <Afflicto> and it sucks cause nobody know the solution.
[12:46] <ikonia> jnich20: ubuntu.com has links for where to download a cd
[12:47] <|Slacker|> and with no keyboard there's no way of testing
[12:47] <Afflicto> This is what happens when I try to boot the new flash drive (this time with ubuntu 10) "SYSLINUX 3.85 2010-04-01 EBIOS Copyright (C) 1994-2010 H. Peter Anvin et al

[12:47] <Afflicto> Ikonia: google it.
[12:47] <ikonia> Afflicto: that doesn't mean anything
[12:47] <ikonia> Afflicto: is there a bug logged
[12:47] <nemetroid> ikonia: as in trying to install maverick or oneiric instead of natty?
[12:47] <ikonia> nemetroid: any other distro you want
[12:48] <fasta> I have a chroot, but in this chroot my /home is non-empty. I want it to map to some filesystem on some other device, but inside the chroot this one is not available for some reason.
[12:48] <Afflicto> I don't know
[12:48] <fasta> (perhaps because it cannot be mounted twice?)
[12:48] <fasta> (once in the chroot and once outside of it)
[12:48] <jnich20> i have three cds that have loaded in the past one with natty 64bit
[12:48] <ikonia> Afflicto: ok, so instead of just repeating how no-one knows the answer, search the bug database, if there isn't a bug, log one, so that people having the same issue can contribute to fixing it
[12:48] <jnich20> one with natty 32 and one with 10.4.364
[12:49] <Afflicto> Ok how do I do that?

[12:54] <sharparrow> I'm asked to enable repository for grub, but how?
[12:54] <nemetroid> ikonia: i might mention though that i could boot gparted live successfully
[12:55] <ikonia> sharparrow: a repo for grub, or from grub ?
[12:55] <ikonia> nemetroid: where are you getting the kernel to boot ?
[12:56] <sharparrow> ikonia, it is suppose to be done from sofware soruces, but I am in live cd?
[12:56] <ikonia> sharparrow: ok, so mount the disk in the livecd, and modify /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:56] <nemetroid> ikonia: you mean where i get the file? ftp.sunet.se
[12:56] <sharparrow> hmm
[12:57] <sharparrow> ikonia, in terminal?
[12:57] <ikonia> nemetroid: I'll rephrase, where are you getting the kernel you are trying to boot ?
[12:59] <Dink> Is there a known issue with ff6 crashing on 11.04 ?
[13:00] <nemetroid> ikonia: from ftp.sunet.se, specifically from /pub/Linux/distributions/ubuntu/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot (kernel is in /ubuntu-installer/amd64)
[13:00] <compdoc> not that Ive seen, but I dont use it much
[13:00] <Dink> whenever I start it up it take me back to login screen
[13:00] <compdoc> could be some add-on
[13:01] <ikonia> nemetroid: can I please see your config for booting the image
[13:01] <sharparrow> ikonia, I am googeling, but cannot find a command for enabeling repositories for grub?
[13:01] <ikonia> sharparrow: what do you want to do, what is your end result
[13:01] <bazhang> Dink, how full is your home directory
[13:01] <Dink> bazhang: 46% full
[13:02] <compdoc> FF6 opens fine
[13:02] <bazhang> Dink, what errors does firefox show when launching from the terminal
[13:02] <Dink> bazhang: nothing. It immediately takes me to gdm login screen.
[13:03] <rethus> i have change my Graphic-Card from nvidia to ati.
[13:03] <rethus> than i get only root-login on startup

[13:04] <ikonia> sharparrow: what are you trying to do/fix
[13:05] <rethus> ikonia
[13:05] <ikonia> rethus: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, change the driver line to "vesa" that will allow you to boot into a gui, from there you can enable the ati drivers and disable nvidia
[13:05] <rethus> can i start up also in safe-mode and reconfigure it on this way
[13:05] <pharaoh2> I want to have a virtual platform so I can use windows (to play games) and ubuntu (everything else) at the same time. Should I go with KVM or XEN? I will need graphic acceleration on the windows guest. And can someone point me to what is paravirtualization
[13:05] <rethus> ok
[13:05] <ikonia> pharaoh2: playing games in a virtual machine will never work
[13:05] <ikonia> pharaoh2: don't waste your time
[13:06] <Dink> bazhang: it does the same thing when I try to start it up with "safe mode"
[13:06] <nemetroid> ikonia: i'm using the supplied config files, i've pasted the relevant (hopefully) parts: http://paste.ubuntu.com/671644/
[13:06] <rethus> ikonia: only the line Driver "nvidia" to Driver "vesa" ?
[13:06] <sharparrow> ikonia, lubuntu would not boot after latest update, I booted up to "bash like line editing supported, something with Grub, and "press tab for commands", no commands worked really
[13:06] <ikonia> rethus: correct
[13:06] <rethus> ikonia: than reboot, or only start x
[13:06] <sharparrow> ikonia, with no access to boot up options, just a black screen with this message
[13:06] <ikonia> rethus: reboot
[13:06] <glebihan> Dink, did you trying starting it with another profile ?
[13:07] <pharaoh2> ikonia, so, There is no way? Or I dom0 can be windows, and ubuntu guest, but what hypervisor do I have then?
[13:07] <gulzar> trying to install Nautilus elementry -- getiing this error with command line -- Error reading https://launchpad.net/api/1.0/~am-monkeyd/+archive/nautilus-elementary-ppa: <urlopen error [Errno 8] _ssl.c:499: EOF occurred in violation of protocol> .  What to do?
[13:07] <ikonia> pharaoh2: it won't work in a virtual environemtn
[13:07] <ikonia> environment
[13:08] <Dink> glebihan: starting it up with -ProfileManager does the same thing
[13:08] <Dink> running it inside gdb also does the same thing
[13:08] <ikonia> nemetroid: I assume you are using the boot option labled "install"
[13:08] <rethus> k, now i see a blue-background... and again the root login
[13:08] <nemetroid> ikonia, correct
[13:08] <glebihan> Dink, what about if you temporarily rename your ~/.mozilla/firefox folder
[13:08] <ikonia> nemetroid: looks a sane set of options,
[13:08] <sharparrow> ikonia, too tricky to handle?
[13:08] <Dink> glebihan: I just did and same :(
[13:09] <ikonia> sharparrow: not at all, I just can't understand what you're actually saying
[13:09] <glebihan> Dink, I guess you already tried reinstalling ?
[13:09] <rethus> ikonia: is there a config-tool from bash... like sax2 was before?
[13:09] <ikonia> rethus: I don't know what sax is
[13:09] <sharparrow> ikonia, me neither really, well what computer is sayting to e
[13:09] <sharparrow> me
[13:10] <llutz> rethus: sax(2)  is Suse
[13:10] <Dink> glebihan: yeah.
[13:10] <rethus> ah, ok. some time ago i come from suse...
[13:10] <ikonia> llutz: thank you
[13:10] <ikonia> sharparrow: if you want to re-apply grub (which I think is what you're asking) follow this guide
[13:10] <rethus> llutz is right.. it was suse-tool
[13:10] <ikonia> !grub2 > sharparrow
[13:10] <glebihan> Dink, when you did, did you remove or purge firefox ?
[13:10] <Dink> sudo apt-get remove --purge firefox firefox-*
[13:10] <rethus> i wonder that dpkg-reconfigure gives no error-messages at all
[13:11] <sharparrow> sorry, ikonia; the initial problem is booting, lubuntu will not boot. Suspecting it is grub errors, I am runnig grub fix from lubuntu live cd, with issues
[13:11] <gulzar> trying to install Nautilus elementry -- getiing this error with command line -- Error reading https://launchpad.net/api/1.0/~am-monkeyd/+archive/nautilus-elementary-ppa: <urlopen error [Errno 8] _ssl.c:499: EOF occurred in violation of protocol> .  What to do?
[13:12] <rethus> ikonia, llutz: any idea, what i could do now?
[13:13] <fasta> What is the name of the graphical tool to manage lvm?
[13:13] <sharparrow> ikonia, would this still aply on a computer with lubuntu only, no dual boot?
[13:13] <Dink> glebihan: btw this is a 64bit vm
[13:14] <rethus> ikonia: what if i only remove xorg.conf ... will a default-conf generated?
[13:15] <ikonia> sharparrow: yes
[13:15] <ikonia> rethus: it won't be regenerated, but it will go back to autodetection
[13:15] <sharparrow> ikonia, hmm, that went fast and easy
[13:15] <rethus> i have found a xorg.conf.failsave... i try this now and reboot
[13:16] <glebihan> Dink, maybe related to that bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/778490
[13:16] <rethus> now i got my x login-screen
[13:17] <Dink> glebihan: yeah might be related… I ran it with strace
[13:17] <Dink> write(2, "Error: cannot open display: :0\n", 31) = 31
[13:18] <Dink> connect(4, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(6000), sin_addr=inet_addr("<IP_ADDRESS>")}, 16) = -1 ECO
[13:18] <Dink> NNREFUSED (Connection refused)
[13:19] <shazzr> Ok...my issue with Banshee and Galaxy S II earlier...i disabled the MTP extension, reenabled it again, and voila! It works. Weird.
[13:19] <nemetroid> ikonia: do you have any more suggestions for what i could try doing?
[13:19] <tomodachi> if i renamed a mounted lvm, would that affect anything? or would stuff still work?
[13:19] <ikonia> nemetroid: I'm curious to why the transfer isn't completing
[13:19] <damno> i need to be root to read hddtemp from /dev/sda, would it be safe to change the prmissn of /dev/sda to 444  ?
[13:19] <sharparrow> ikonia worked like a charm
[13:20] <sharparrow> ikonia, boot up is faster than ever!!
[13:20] <ikonia> sharparrow: great
[13:20] <Dink> glebihan: yeah it happens on unity and classic. However it works under "Safe Mode"
[13:20] <rethus> ikonia: before i had an errormessage "description" in /var/lib/dpkg/status was missing... i looked into the file and see "Des<ription" Means < was a strange char... i replace it by c and save the file... may now this broke my system?
[13:20] <codename09> Hey guys i m new to C++ and i want to learn it in linux based IDE but the problem is i dont know how .. i used to use turbo C but I have no clue how to do that in liunx]
[13:21] <rethus> how could i recreate this "status" file?
[13:21] <ikonia> rethus: just remove that file
[13:21] <glebihan> Dink, didn't you say earlier that it didn't work in safe mode either ?
[13:21] <damno> i need to be root to read hddtemp from /dev/sda, what can I do to avoid being a root for this?
[13:21] <tomodachi> codename09: install eclipse
[13:21] <Dink> firefox safe mode did not work but Ubuntu safe mode did
[13:21] <glebihan> Dink, ok
[13:21] <codename09> tomodachi eclips ?!? does it works exactly like turbo C ?!
[13:22] <Dink> glebihan: so yeah its probably related to that Xorg bug
[13:22] <damno> i need to be root to read hddtemp from /dev/sda, what can I do to avoid being a root for this?
[13:22] <fasta> Can I download a recent kernel package somewhere?
[13:22] <tomodachi> codename09: i think I saw turboC back in the old day, But cant really say i remember how it worked. No probably not its gui, not something that looks like an editor for dos 6.22
[13:22] <glebihan> Dink, what version of "xserver-xorg-input-synaptics" do you have installed ?
[13:22] <Tetracomm> Hello.
[13:23] <codename09> tomodachi i know right !! lol but I dont have any clue how to work with any of IDEs other than turbo ! ... :(
[13:23] <jnich20> does antone here no how to completely reset a computer with only bios working as my computer will not boot from cd
[13:23] <rethus> ikonia: and than reboot?
[13:24] <Tetracomm> Does anyone know of any Ubuntu programs that can extract .nrg files?
[13:24] <ikonia> rethus: sure
[13:24] <compdoc> jnich20, you mean reset the OS back the the original state?
[13:24] <th0r> jnich20: just take out the hard drive and make sure there is nothing in the cd, usb, or floppy
[13:24] <damno> can anybody ans me why I need to be root to exec hddtemp /dev/sda ??
[13:25] <BobSapp> join #/g/sicp
[13:25] <jnich20> its alaptop
[13:25] <rethus> ikonia: have found out now... realy strange problem
[13:25] <ikonia> damno: possibly to load the kernel modules needed to monitor it
[13:25] <Dink> glebihan: 1.3.99+git20110116.0e27ce3a-0ubuntu12.1
[13:25] <rethus> if x start, i see some programm windows (from autostart) but at the moment, if plasma starts, it overlay all programms
[13:25] <Sidewinder1> BobSapp, Preceed join with /
[13:25] <BobSapp> hehe thanks
[13:25] <rethus> for example, if i start pidgin... i see it in the chooser (Alt + Tab), but not on desktop
[13:26] <Sidewinder1> :D
[13:26] <damno> ikonia: what can be done to let it execute in a conky script..without root privilages?
[13:26] <rethus> killall plasma-desktop show all my hidden programs
[13:26] <Calinou> trying to update a nvidia driver, "Before you begin the installation, exit the X server"
[13:27] <ikonia> damno: it's run as a daemon, so you don't need to worry about that
[13:27] <Calinou> how am I supposed to exit it?
[13:27] <Calinou> killing it does not work, not permitted
[13:27] <gfeat> hi ! when i choose gnome at login, i have unity and gnome on the desktop ! wtf ?
[13:27] <ikonia> Calinou: how are you trying to update the nvidia drivers ?
[13:27] <Calinou> the .run file, I downloaded the latest version
[13:27] <Calinou> cd'ing in the folder then sudo ./<the file>
[13:27] <ikonia> Calinou: why are you doing this ?
[13:27] <DXBLouie> bazhang, i removed gnome3 without having to reinstall ubuntu
[13:27] <Calinou> to update my drivers?
[13:27] <ikonia> Calinou: you do know those drivers are totally not supported
[13:27] <ikonia> Calinou: why do you want to update your driver ?
[13:28] <Calinou> I'm trying to play TF2, which requires wine
[13:28] <Calinou> and due to outdated drivers, I can't
[13:28] <Calinou> well, I can update ubuntu, but 700MB of downloading isn't nothing to my brother
[13:28] <ikonia> Calinou: ok - then realise that those drivers have no promise to work and are not supported by ubuntu
[13:29] <glebihan> Dink, well that's the latest version... I'm out of ideas, except maybe going back to firefox 5 or trying firefox 7
[13:30] <Dink> glebihan: thanks. Yeah I might have to use 5 for now.
[13:30] <gfeat> hi ! when i choose gnome at login, i have unity and gnome on the desktop ! wtf ?
[13:30] <ikonia> gfeat: control your language in this channel
[13:30] <glebihan> Dink, you're welcome, sorry I couldn't be of more help
[13:30] <ikonia> gfeat: unity is the new shell used for gnome in ubuntu
[13:30] <ikonia> gfeat: unity "is" gnome
[13:32] <gfeat> yes i know but, when i choose Gnome classic, the unity bar is combine with gnome
[13:32] <gfeat> its a fresh installation with all update
[13:32] <ikonia> gfeat: can't explain that
[13:33] <gfeat> ok lol
[13:34] <nemetroid> ikonia: i did a quick capture with wireshark, the server and client are sending packages back and forth (Data Packet/Acknowledgement) until the server sends data packet 24, at which point the client doesn't acknowledge. it is also at that time it states that the client is invalid or corrupt
[13:35] <babygenius55>  hello.  i'm on ubuntu and i was wondering if I could change the "overall" look of gimp separate from the desktop them...mainly interested in window color.
[13:35] <ikonia> nemetroid: very very odd
[13:36] <nemetroid> ikonia: i agree. i'm starting to think i'll have to look harder for my usb stick... :)
[13:36] <ikonia> nemetroid: I can't understand why, tftp is dumb, so I don't understand why it would stop
[13:42] <squid> hello all!
[13:42] <kroq-gar78> lol that's a lot of joining and quitting :)
[13:43] <Sidewinder1> kroq-gar78, Turn off join/quit.
[13:43] <kroq-gar78> does anybody know where minesweeper keeps the scores? I want to know how I can move them to a different install
[13:44] <kroq-gar78> Sidewinder1: yeah I know. Just it's a lot of stuff.
[13:44] <Sidewinder1> :D
[13:44] <kroq-gar78> :)
[13:47] <glebihan> kroq-gar78, I'd say in "~/.minesweeper"
[13:49] <kroq-gar78> glebihan: nope :( I did some grepping on the code and it looked like it said that it is stored in /usr/share/gnome-games/scores (or something similar), butthat wasn't the case
[13:49] <craig> hi
[13:49] <airtonix> you grepped wrong then
[13:49] <glebihan> kroq-gar78, that's unlikely since a standard user shouldn't have write access to that folder
[13:50] <finale> kroq-gar78: i think its /var/games/gnomine*
[13:50] <kroq-gar78> glebihan: true...
[13:50] <craig> i got Windows XP already installed and i wanna install ubuntu too (from my livecd) - can i use ubiquity command?
[13:50] <kroq-gar78> finale: nice you got it. Thanks :)
[13:50] <airtonix> craig: why would you use that command?
[13:50] <finale> np
[13:51] <Sidewinder1> airtonix, I was wondering that too.
[13:51] <craig> right now i got Partiotion0 (recovery partiotion), Partition1 - windows xp installed, Partiotion3 - i wanna divide it (leave a part for windows files, and another half should be used for ubuntu)
[13:51] <craig> airtonix, 'cos i'm not sure if i won't break something down
[13:52] <kroq-gar78> finale: thanks a lot. If I need to wipe ubuntu, I can still brag about my 2min36sec expert ;) lol
[13:52] <dhiren__8> hi
[13:52] <airtonix> craig: i mean why wouldn't you follow the normal procedure of installing ubuntu from a live cd ?
[13:52] <craig> and what about Partiotion 3 - should i divided it on windows?
[13:52] <dhiren__8> exit
[13:52] <craig> airtonix, what is a normal procedure?
[13:53] <airtonix> craig: to click on the 'install ubuntu" icon on the desktop that is created when you boot from the livecd
[13:54] <craig> i can't see thta icon
[13:54] <salvatore> hello everybody, i am trying to lounch phpmyadmin but i got this message: Wrong permissions on configuration file, should not be world writable!
[13:54] <airtonix> craig: then you aren't using an offical ubuntu live cd
[13:54] <salvatore> can anybody help me?
[13:54] <airtonix> craig: therefore, not supported here
[13:54] <sandking> hi
[13:54] <craig> ok
[13:55] <Sidewinder1> craig, Just format, using gparted, partition3 ext3/4 with the amount of Gigs you want for ubuntu, format the rest, that you want for win, NTFS and install ubuntu to the ext3/4 partition.
[13:55] <sandking> does anyone use remote desktop with dyndns+airport express (extreme)? i'd like to know what kind of ports i need to forward and how to setup airport with dyndns
[13:56] <airtonix> sandking: that fact that you use dyndns has no affect on which ports you open.
[13:56] <airtonix> effect*
[13:56] <sandking> airtonix, i got no idea how to start remote desktop under ubuntu and a bad headache worsens my cognition abilities :|
[13:57] <airtonix> sandking: you also need to be more precise as to what you mean by "remote desktop" what server software is it?
[13:57] <Sidewinder1> craig, This site is great for just about all "how-to"s: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/index.php
[13:57] <craig> Sidewinder1, thanks
[13:57] <sandking> airtonix, i want to use default option in ubuntu 11.04
[13:57] <Sidewinder1> :-)
[13:58] <sandking> right now i'm trying to setup airport under windows but don't know how to get two pieces together (ie airport with dyndns)
[13:58] <airtonix> sandking: i do believe the configuration interface for the default remote desktop shows you the ports
[13:58] <airtonix> sandking: isn't airport a piece of apple hardware? it's just a wifi router
[13:59] <sandking> airtonix, yeah, but setup utility works for me only under windows
[13:59] <sandking> just a piece of legacy hardware from the days back
[13:59] <airtonix> sandking: why do you need a setup utility?
[13:59] <Polah> salvatore: You need to change phpmyadmin's config file permissions to 766 or 744
[14:00] <sandking> airtonix, it's just an app to set it up - i don't know if you can access configuration panel via typing ip address in browser
[14:00] <salvatore> you mean /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php?
[14:03] <airtonix> sandking: if it's not the device that provides you with WAN access then i'm not sure why you need to be concerned with it at all
[14:03] <airtonix> sandking: since in that case it's just a wifi switch
[14:05] <sandking> airtonix, to be honest i'm completely lost with this remote desktop thing. i'm trying to go with this guide http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/connect-home-network-dyndns/ but i'm stuck at "configure your router" as i don't know where to put dyndns info
[14:05] <johannes_udev_pr> hi
[14:05] <sandking> that's why i asked if anyone use apple hw
[14:05] <airtonix> sandking: in the device that provides you with itnernet access (WAN) and allows you to configure port forwarding
[14:06] <johannes_udev_pr> i have  a problem with my ubuntu 11.04, it does not pickup a custom udev rule, does anybody know how to fix/debug that
[14:06] <johannes_udev_pr> ?
[14:08] <sandking> airtonix, can i configure several machines in my lan to acces from outside on the same port?
[14:08] <sandking> and how to check which port ubuntu remote desktop use?
[14:10] <nemetroid> ikonia: ugh, i probably found the problem. filezilla by default apparently transfers files without an extension as ascii
[14:12] <airtonix> sandking: no
[14:12] <ikonia> nemetroid I'd be surprised if the extension was the problem
[14:12] <nemetroid> ikonia: yup, different md5 after redownloading everything as binary, it'll probably work now. thanks for your help!
[14:12] <ikonia> nemetroid: well, surprised by that
[14:18] <Lockzi> Hello, I'm running Ubuntu Server 10.04.3. I need to install PCRE 8 or above. I can't find it in apt-get - does anyone have any ideas of how to install it?
[14:18] <Lockzi> 64-bit
[14:19] <lotuspsychje> Lockzi: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/debian-ubuntu-linux-install-libpcre3-dev/
[14:20] <Lockzi> lotuspsychje: Still says PCRE librairies version is too old The Bug Genie 3 requires PCRE librairies 8.0 or later. You have version 7.8 2008-09-05.
[14:20] <Lockzi> Even though I installed the -dev package
[14:21] <lotuspsychje> Lockzi: what about this: http://serverfault.com/questions/283280/how-to-get-pcre-8-x-on-ubuntu-10-04-linode
[14:22] <Lockzi> lotuspsychje: I've read that one as well. Tried using backports but couldn't find the package in there. Just like the comments to that posts said
[14:22] <glebihan> Lockzi, you could also download the source and compile
[14:23] <doulos> exit
[14:24] <Lockzi> lotuspsychje: I've also tried downloading the latest .deb file from http://www.pcre.org/. But it won't install due to "dpkg: regarding libpcre3_8.12-3ubuntu2_amd64.deb containing libpcre3, pre-dependency problem:  libpcre3 pre-depends on multiarch-support   multiarch-support is not installed."
[14:25] <Lockzi> glebihan: I am willing to try that. I've downloaded the source - How do I compile it? Never done that before
[14:25] <Sidewinder1> Lockzi, You might have a look at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware?highlight=%28%28CompilingEasyHowTo%29%29
[14:25] <glebihan> Lockzi, extract  the source, then from the folder where you extracted it run "./configure" then "make" and finally "sudo make install"
[14:26] <glebihan> !compile | Lockzi, also :
[14:26] <Sidewinder1> glebihan, Paraphrased! :-)

[14:42] <yeats> fasta: no I don't... I think you'll need to provide more details for people to be able to help (what has changed between the last time it worked to now?  what version?  any custom (non-repo) software installed?)
[14:42] <fasta> yeats: It has been weeks since I last rebooted.
[14:43] <rcmaehl> Quick question. (ubuntu 11.04 64-bit) Is it possible to configure SSH to ask for password AND username instead of just password?
[14:43] <Lockzi> lotuspsychje: Cool, seems to be similar problem. But is Max OSX applicable on Ubuntu? Can I use the same technique he did?
[14:43] <zykotick9> rcmaehl, the user name is supplied on the client side
[14:43] <fasta> rcmaehl: SSH already does this by defaul.t\
[14:43] <fasta> rcmaehl: you just do not know it.
[14:44] <rcmaehl> Then why is it when I ssh into my pc from school or somewhere it only asks for password
[14:44] <fasta> rcmaehl: because it assumes that your username is the same on the target machine by default.
[14:44] <dwp__> I am knew to abuntu anybody have any thoughts how to protect your computer from malicious programs, what Norton is suppose to do for you on windows
[14:44] <rcmaehl> Can I prevent that from happening?
[14:44] <fasta> rcmaehl: if you want another username, you can specify that in different ways.
[14:44] <fasta> rcmaehl: reading the manual would be a start.
[14:45] <zykotick9> fasta, FYI if it's really been "years" since you last rebooted - you're running a machine with kernel vulnerabilities, not too smart (unless you're using ksplice)
[14:45] <rcmaehl> dwp__: sudo apt-get install chkrootkit rkhunter
[14:45] <fasta> zykotick9: it has been weeks, not years.
[14:45] <zykotick9> fasta, oh sorry, my bad.  i think i got yeats confused with years - sorry
[14:46] <MrNthDegree> zykotick9, not true
[14:46] <MrNthDegree> zykotick9, ksplice means rebootless updates
[14:46] <MrNthDegree> err forget what I just said
[14:46] <MrNthDegree> my bad :$
[14:46] <zykotick9> MrNthDegree, "... (unless you're using ksplice)
[14:46] <MrNthDegree> zykotick9, yeah, brain did not engage
[14:46] <yeats> dwp__: this might be a good intro (a couple of years old, but still useful): http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/tutorials/l-harden-desktop/
[14:47] <zykotick9> MrNthDegree, i obviously was suffering the same issue with my weeks vs years :)
, perhaps you SSH to username@hostname? then it would only ask for password. I found that both openssh and nautilus' "connect to server" works this way
[14:47] <dwp__> I guess no one has any thoughts on computer security
[14:47] <zykotick9> MrNthDegree, with Oracle buying ksplice it's future doesn't look good :(
[14:47] <MrNthDegree> dwp__, I do
[14:48] <dwp__> Thanks
[14:48] <MrNthDegree> zykotick9, the underlying technology is FLOSS
[14:48] <yeats> dwp__: two people have responded - are you not seeing our posts?
[14:48] <zykotick9> MrNthDegree, currently
[14:48] <rcmaehl> nuborn: no I do ssh fcofix.dyndns.org
[14:48] <dwp__> Maybe no
[14:48] <rcmaehl> you can try it yourslef
[14:48] <MrNthDegree> zykotick9, yes but Oracle can't take it away
[14:48] <rcmaehl> yourself*
[14:48] <rcmaehl> and it only asks for pass
[14:48] <MrNthDegree> zykotick9, CentOS are already discussing owning Oracle at their own game
[14:49] <fasta> How do I install the latest Ati driver from the command line? The wiki only contains instructions for older versions of Ubuntu.
[14:49] <yeats> dwp__: "10:45 < rcmaehl> dwp__: sudo apt-get install chkrootkit rkhunter"

[14:49] <rcmaehl> bigbaddave: ask away
[14:50] <Gentoo64> dwp__, theres a security sticky in the ubuntu forums
[14:50] <bigbaddave> I am in need for a clean user env for building, and I am not sure how to disable someting so that the host does not impose its varables onto the sanatised user
[14:50] <nuborn> rcmaehl: ok, it turned out that it assumed my username. I.e<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:50] <rcmaehl> nuborn: oh
[14:51] <ikonia> bigbaddave: what do you want to change ?
[14:51] <bigbaddave> PS1
[14:51] <rcmaehl> <_< I guess it's b/c i use the same username on all my computers
[14:51] <ikonia> bigbaddave: why do you want to get rid of PS1 ?
[14:52] <bigbaddave> and keep out SHLVL, Term, OLDPWD, PWD
[14:52] <ikonia> bigbaddave: what is this in aid of ? what are you trying to actually achieve ?
[14:52] <bigbaddave> with PS1, I like the simple one
[14:52] <thangavel> problem in repairing the pendrive's ms dos filesystem..while trying dosfsck..i got as "Both FATs appear to be corrupt. Giving up."
[14:52] <dwp__> yeats what does that do
[14:52] <bigbaddave> building a linux system from scratch...
[14:52] <yeats> dwp__: what does what do? ;-)
[14:53] <ikonia> bigbaddave: you don't need to change those paramaters for an LFS system
[14:53] <bigbaddave> I need to keep as much of the hosts varables out of the build system as I can
[14:53] <ikonia> bigbaddave: they do not effect an LFS build
[14:53] <bigbaddave> ok
[14:53] <dwp__> does that command install a program that helps with security
problem in repairing the pendrive's ms dos filesystem..while trying dosfsck..i got as "Both FATs appear to be corrupt. Giving up." how to recover it now??
[14:53] <ikonia> thangavel: why are you telling me ?
[14:54] <Gentoo64> dwp__, what are you trying to do?
[14:54] <bigbaddave> ok, Something messed up, and I was trying to see what it was, thanks. :)
[14:54] <ikonia> bigbaddave: it's nothing to do with those varibles, I assure you
[14:55] <Sidewinder1> dwp__, You might have a look at this link, it's old but still pertainent:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=510812
u have once helped me solving some isssues..i thought u can help me now also....
[14:55] <ikonia> thangavel: sorry, I'm busy at the moment
[14:55] <yeats> dwp__: I think you should read the tutorial at the link I provided - it will give you a step by step overview of what those programs are and what they do
[14:55] <yeats> dwp__: and what Sidewinder1 sent
[14:55] <Sidewinder1> Yepperz!

[14:56] <Sidewinder1> dwp__, Please, read the links! :-)
[14:56] <Gentoo64> dwp__, you wont get malware etc anyway with normal use
[14:56] <Gentoo64> dwp__, giving away personal info is normally user error
[14:57] <scarleo> Hi, I get a lot of this every time I use apt-get: 'x86_64' is not a valid architecture name: character `_' not allowed (only letters, digits and characters `-') Why? And is it serious? Can I get rid of it?
[14:58] <ikonia> scarleo: can you give me an example of a package that does this ?
[14:58] <coz_> scarleo,  what are you trying to install?
[14:58] <dwp__> aren't there programs that can be downloaded when you are using the internet that can record your keystrokes or send out your passwords
[14:59] <scarleo> ikonia: coz_ : This happens with almost all packages
[14:59] <Gentoo64> dwp__, not really
[14:59] <coz_> scarleo,  if you are doing apt-get install such&such package on a 64 bit system,, I dont believe it has to be prefraced with x86_64
[14:59] <Gentoo64> dwp__, its not like windows where you can install keyloggers just with a click
[14:59] <ikonia> scarleo: please give me an example of one
[14:59] <ikonia> scarleo: give us an exact example of one that is failing
[14:59] <Sidewinder1> dwp__, Firefox saves pswds by default.
[14:59] <scarleo> ikonia: latest I tried was kismet
[14:59] <Gentoo64> ff isnt a keylogger though...
[14:59] <ikonia> scarleo: please give us an exact example of a command that is failing
[15:00] <coz_> scarleo,  and was that  sudo apt-get install kismet   ?
[15:00] <dwp__> peats could you send me that link again
[15:00] <scarleo> ikonia: sudo apt-get install kismet
[15:00] <coz_> mmm
[15:00] <scarleo> ikonia: it's not failing, just a lot of warnings
[15:00] <ikonia> scarleo: please show me the output of the command uname -a
[15:00] <ikonia> !info kismet

[15:01] <osi_> Hi, can anyone help me to solve a problem with 11.04 on an Inspiron 1100. Apparently a well known problem but I can't sort out the various solutions
[15:01] <coz_> scarleo,  and   what is the readout of uname -m
[15:01] <ikonia> coz_: you can see it x86_64
[15:01] <coz_> didnt see
[15:01] <coz_> now I do
[15:02] <ikonia> scarleo: as a test point your system at a different mirror, run apt-get update, then try again
[15:02] <thangavel> problem in repairing the pendrive's ms dos filesystem..while trying dosfsck..i got as "Both FATs appear to be corrupt. Giving up." how to recover it now??
[15:02] <scarleo> ikonia: ok
[15:03] <Sidewinder1> thangavel, Reformat? NTFS,? Ext3/4?
[15:03] <zykotick9> thangavel, for filesystem errors it's probably best to use the native OS, so in this case Windows
[15:04] <thangavel> the current filesystem is msdos
[15:05] <BluesKaj> thangavel, are you trying to format the drive or ?
[15:05] <scarleo> ikonia: same thing with new mirror, I pasted the whole output here as it says a lot more: http://pastebin.com/bv4Px7p0
[15:05] <sh0t> hi all! can anyone help me to set the mic in a eeepc with ubuntu please,?
[15:05] <thangavel> yes...but 5.9 MB of memry remains even after trying formatting too
[15:06] <Sidewinder1> thangavel, I don't think "msdos" is a filesystem, at least nowadays; possibly fat16, fat32, NTFS?...
[15:06] <Gentoo64> msdos is partition table
[15:06] <Sidewinder1> Or an OS.
[15:07] <thangavel> tht is a memory card used in phones..now it is corrupted becoz i accidentally removed it while copying...
[15:07] <coz_> sh0t,  first thing I would do is open a terminal.. type    alsamixer   and check if any slider is down or muted  "m"  on keyboard mutes or unmutes
[15:07] <sh0t> coz_, check :) alsamixer is ok
[15:07] <th0r> thangavel: if you crashed it in that fashion reformatting is probably required
[15:07] <devish> no one is on eclipse
[15:07] <gravestone> How can I add an applet in ubuntu 11.04 ?
[15:08] <devish> i have installed eclipse using tall bal from eclipse.org but when i run it ,it gives "/opt/eclipse/eclipse: 5: Syntax error: "(" unexpected"
[15:08] <sh0t> coz_, i mean...just "beep" is down but i think it's ok.
[15:08] <thangavel> i tries formatting..but tht didn't help me..
[15:08] <coz_> sh0t,   mm I am not up on many of the troubleshooting for sound,, if no one picks up on this here at this particular time, I would also open both the #pulseaudio and #alsa channels,,
[15:08] <devish> *tar bal
[15:08] <thangavel> thOr,i tried tht..but helpless
[15:08] <sh0t> k
[15:08] <sh0t> tnx
[15:08] <th0r> thangavel: you might have crashed the partition table. I would load up gparted and see about deleting any existing partitions and starting the card all over from scratch
[15:09] <Gentoo64> devish, dont know what eclipse is, but did you install it?
[15:09] <Sidewinder1> !sound | sh0t
[15:09] <Gentoo64> like make install etc?
[15:09] <coz_> sh0t,  I dont have access to that particular system,, however ,, when you open alsamixer,, what is the sound card reported in the upper left?
[15:09] <fasta> I get init: udev-fallback-graphics main process (806) terminated with status 1.
[15:09] <fasta> How can I get rid of that message?
[15:09] <sh0t> coz_,  Card: HDA Intel
[15:09] <thangavel> thOr..tell me how to do tht..somehow help me yaar...
[15:10] <Gentoo64> thangavel, use gparted and click format on the disk
[15:10] <sh0t> ubottu, i've tried...but nothing...
[15:10] <sh0t> ahahah
[15:10] <devish> eclipse is a ide  yes i did whAt is required
[15:10] <coz_> sh0t,  ok hold on
[15:10] <scarleo> coz_:  ikonia With a bit more thinking I guess this is from trying to install glideapps with wrong architecture. Tride apt-get remove glideapps but it didn't find the package. How can I get rid of it?
[15:10] <Andreas_W> Hiho
[15:11] <sh0t> ok!
[15:11] <thangavel> thOr:while trying to repair using  dosfsck in ubuntu..i got as "Both FATs appear to be corrupt. Giving up." how to recover it now??
[15:11] <Andreas_W> Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllloooooooooooooooooooooooo...
[15:11] <Andreas_W> ?!?!
[15:11] <Gentoo64> Andreas_W,
[15:11] <TheEvilPhoenix> Andreas_W:  do you need help?
[15:11] <TheEvilPhoenix> with something*
[15:12] <coz_> sh0t,   not sure this will fix it ,, but you can always revert the setting   http://www.webupd8.org/2010/11/fix-hda-intel-realtek-alc887-no-sound.html
[15:12] <coz_> scarleo,  did you install t his glideapps via apt or compilied?
[15:12] <th0r> thangavel: you can use gparted to remove and repartition the card, but be very careful. If you misuse gparted you could wipe out the hard drive on your computer.
[15:12] <sh0t> i try...
[15:13] <Andreas_W> i'm trying to find someone
[15:13] <scarleo> coz_:  via apt I think
[15:13] <Gentoo64> Andreas_W, who?
[15:13] <killer__> hi i had installed ubuntu on my pc with windows 7....then i deleted the ubuntu drive from disk management in windows... now i cannot recover my drive ... when i try to make a new simple volume...it gives an error.."there is not enough space on the disk to complete this operation"
[15:13] <coz_> sh0t,   reboot after doing that also book mark that page so you can revert it if it doesnt work
[15:13] <killer__> anybody knows how i can recover my disk space
[15:13] <Gentoo64> killer__, so you have unallocated space where ubuntu was?
[15:13] <yeats> killer__: you could try gparted
[15:14] <Andreas_W> matthias_r_94...no problem i found him already ;)
[15:14] <coz_> scarleo,  see if a sudo apt-get auotremove  glideapps   works
[15:14] <killer__> yes it is free space ..as shown in disk management
[15:14] <yeats> !gparted | killer__
[15:14] <Gentoo64> killer__, so format it as ntfs and join it? is that what your trying to do?
[15:14] <thangavel> thOr...ok..help me while using it..right now i'm downloading....
[15:15] <jack__> test
[15:15] <scarleo> coz_:  E: Unable to locate package glideapps
[15:15] <jack__> ok....
[15:15] <coz_> scarleo,  ok ,,
[15:15] <scarleo> coz_:  And I did check the spelling, it's correct
[15:15] <iceroot_> is it possible with nx to hear the sound on the remote-machine and not on the local machine?
[15:15] <jack__> since JoliCloud is based on Ubuntu would i be able to talk here??
[15:15] <ikonia> jack__: no
[15:16] <jack__> but its still based on ubuntu 10.04
[15:16] <iceroot_> jack__: doesnt matter
[15:16] <coz_> scarleo,   ikonia   seems to have a better handle on this than I do so I will back off for him
[15:16] <ikonia> jack__: but it's not ubuntu
[15:16] <killer__> gentoo64: it shows only two options...1) create anew simple volume..20to delete volume..
[15:16] <scarleo> coz_:  I guess the only problem is the lines in /var/lib/dpkg/status that still refers to glideapps  even though it's not there
[15:16] <jack__> ok... is there a jolios server?
[15:16] <iceroot_> jack__: you are not talking in #debian about ubuntu because its based on debian
[15:16] <scarleo> coz_:  ok, thanks
[15:16] <ikonia> coz_: I just gave a suggestion, there wasn't really much diagnoses behind it
[15:16] <iceroot_> jack__: same for everything else
[15:16] <Gentoo64> killer__, then delete the ubuntu volume (so its unallocated) then extend the windows volume
[15:16] <coz_> scarleo,  can you check  there to see if it can be removed
[15:17] <coz_> ikonia,  ah ok,,
[15:17] <scarleo> coz_:  So can I just edit that file manually?
[15:17] <ikonia> scarleo: I'd try using a different mirror as a test
[15:18] <coz_> scarleo,   if possible hunt down any reference to glideapps  to see if they can be removed,, I would t hink yes  should be able to open that with sudo gedit  or gksudo the file
[15:18] <scarleo> ikonia: I tried that as per your suggestion, that was not it. It's a previously installed and removed app (glideapps) that still has some entries in /var/lib/dpkg/status that is causing it, it's not properly uninstalled
 a warning message shows that partition will become inaccessible if i delete it..is that a problem??
[15:18] <sandking> anyone has any oss alternative to team viewer?
[15:18] <scarleo> coz_:  Ok, I'll try
[15:19] <ikonia> scarleo: remove  /var/lib/dpkg/status and re-run apt-get update
[15:19] <devish> will 64 bit eclipse  work on 32 bit os?
[15:19] <Gentoo64> killer__, not sure why itd say that. like someone else said try gparted as it handles both ext and ntfs
[15:19] <scarleo> ikonia: Ok
[15:19] <Gentoo64> killer__, but you can try it from windows anyway. you wont ruin your drive as long as your clicking the right partition
[15:19] <zykotick9> devish, i'd guess no
[15:20] <killer__> gentoo64: so will it resolve my problem..??
[15:20] <Gentoo64> killer__, what problem? removing the ubuntu partition?
[15:21] <Thelmaria> I'm having issues with my network. Duel boot machine, works fine in windows. It seems like the interface is dropping in and out - pinging my gateway works for a while, then 'destination host unreachable', then it'll come up again. I know the gateway's not flapping. /var/log/dmesg has nothing.  Error!
[15:22] <scarleo> E: Could not open file /var/lib/dpkg/status - open (2: No such file or directory)
[15:22] <scarleo> E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
[15:22] <Thelmaria> Gentoo64: Yes. RTL8111/8168B.
[15:22] <coz_> killer__,   so windows will not boot now yes?
[15:22] <BluesKaj> killer doenload and burn or copy gparted live cd to media and use that to reallocate and format the space
[15:23] <Gentoo64> Thelmaria, same as my onboard one. i had to buy an intel card unfortunately
[15:23] <ikonia> scarleo: that's odd......
[15:23] <Gentoo64> Thelmaria, these problems have been around for years and never been  fixed
[15:23] <sh0t> coz_, i've tried your link but nothing so i restored the conf as before...
[15:23] <scarleo> ikonia: I just moved it so I still have a copy of it
[15:23] <sh0t> coz_, the problem is that if i use an utility like sound record i can record my voice...but not with skype...
[15:24] <Thelmaria> Gentoo64: Ah. Fair enough, I'll dig out another card sometime. Thanks for the heads-up.
[15:24] <Gentoo64> Thelmaria, ok
[15:24] <ikonia> scarleo: hang on, lets see how to re-create this cleanly
[15:24] <coz_> sh0t,  darn,, I was hoping that single line change would work,, ok my suggestion is to go to both  #pulseaudio and #alsa channels,,  I think they are moe likely to have troubleshooting reources for this
[15:24] <killer__> gentoo64: how to use this GPARTED??
[15:25] <sh0t> ok tnx for your time coz_
[15:25] <ke0kw> Hey whatsup guys, I need help with a real linux expert

[15:29] <Mp3Lover> ikonia,    https://launchpad.net/~rvm/+archive/mplayer
[15:30] <scarleo> ikonia: Do you think dpkg-reconfigure would work in this case?
[15:30] <ke0kw> Gentoo64: I have a capslock mod, I would like to fix
[15:30] <scarleo> ikonia: I mean is it safe to try?
[15:30] <ikonia> scarleo: no, but it's certainly worth a try
[15:30] <ke0kw> Gentoo64: see on post #43

[15:31] <bjhaid> hi, i need to get my machine startup on its own once their is power outage occurs and power is restored
[15:31] <ikonia> Mp3Lover: I would personally recommend, not following that guide, more so if you are new to ubuntu
[15:31] <elv> hi are these temp normal? Core 0: +77.0°C, Core 1: +78.0°C?
[15:31] <centHOGG> elv... little hot but depends on the proc
[15:31] <Ellipsis753> Hey, I use classic ubuntu and deleted a cluster of a few system icons in the top right (right click remove from panel), so now I only have background programs in the top right, however I also don't have the sound icon so can't change my sound level, is there a way to have only the sound icon but not the others?
[15:32] <Mp3Lover> ikonia, jeje thanks for the info... i really did a mess with the compiz-config thanks god i found a command for reset all
[15:32] <scarleo> ikonia: No, it did nothing
[15:32] <elv> centHOGG: i have intel p8600
[15:32] <ikonia> scarleo: didn't think so, but it was worth a chance
[15:32] <Mp3Lover> ikonia, how i can add codecs for 264 files or mkv.... to media the media player?
[15:32] <Gentoo64> elv, for idle? no
[15:32] <centHOGG> elv: stock cooler or aftermarket?
[15:32] <elv> and primary hdd /dev/sda: WDC WD3200BEKT-00F3T0: 67°C
[15:32] <ikonia> !codecs | Mp3Lover
[15:32] <ikonia> Mp3Lover: take a look at those urls
[15:32] <coz_> Mp3Lover,  also if you have compiz issues  you can me in #compiz  as well
[15:32] <centHOGG> hdds too hot elv
[15:33] <scarleo> ikonia: Maybe if I use the old file and try to reconfigure just glideapps?
[15:33] <elv> centHOGG: i need help
[15:33] <devish> ubuntu is a great OS :)
[15:33] <centHOGG> pm me
[15:33] <coz_> !pm
[15:33] <ikonia> scarleo: I had that in the back of my mind, but I can't see that working either, however again, worth a try as it's less invasive
[15:33] <Mp3Lover> ikonia, ok thanks...
[15:33] <ke0kw> Gentoo64: did you check it out bud?
[15:33] <Gentoo64> ke0kw, yes. but not sure about xorg
[15:33] <cypha> what's the official directory i'm supposed to extract applications of my own in?
[15:34] <cypha> like stuff I don't get from the repository
[15:34] <ke0kw> Gentoo64: hmmm, fair enough
[15:34] <Dr_Willis> cypha:  totally depemds on the app in question
[15:34] <cypha> wmctrl
[15:34] <Dr_Willis> cypha:  and if its for the system or just you ruser.
[15:34] <Gentoo64> ke0kw, ill have a look ina abit if i have time
[15:34] <cypha> system
[15:34] <jamesanslow> could be /usr/bin cypha
[15:34] <Mp3Lover> woot ubuntu is like 100ligth years in front of windows!! where in the world u can help this quick ?  ;P   hope i can lear soon!! so i can give back a lil of what i get!  Thanks all for this hard work!
[15:34] <cypha> it was somethign in the root folder
[15:34] <ke0kw> Gentoo64: ok
[15:34] <Dr_Willis> cypha:  /opt/ is common for stuff not from the repos

[15:35] <cypha> there it is
[15:35] <cypha> thanks :)
[15:35] <fasta> Is there anywhere someone who does know anything about udev and the graphics system?
[15:36] <scarleo> ikonia: No, no luck with that either
[15:36] <coz_> darn
[15:37] <Dr_Willis> weird - this windows box is showing 5 primary partions..
[15:37] <ikonia> scarleo: didn't think so
[15:38] <jasongriffee> evolution's side bar is way to big, but I can't make it smaller, suggestions?
[15:38] <Dr_Willis> this may be a tricky linux install.. except ubuntu is allready on it. Now how did i manage to get 5 primaries.
[15:38] <rumpe1> Dr_Willis, primary partitions on the same disk?
[15:39] <Dr_Willis> rumpe1:  yea. Looking at the disk via indows disk manager right now. Its showing 5 primaries..
[15:39] <rumpe1> Dr_Willis, funny ^^
[15:40] <Dr_Willis> I havent booted this box to linux in ages. its the wifes pc. :)  It seems its shodung / and the swap as primaries.. pretty sure they are not.  guess i boots to linux and see.
[15:40] <coz_> scarleo,  out of curiosity,, if you do  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade   does it stall at that error or complete the command?
[15:40] <DrMax> hmm I have a new GT520 and it keeps detecting my screen as a TV (despite being a 1920x1200) over HDMI and gives me crap resolution of 480i (the previous GT7300 worked just fine, so it's (probably) not a screen issue)
[15:40] <Dr_Willis> good thing about linux.. booting to a os that hasent been ran in 5+ mo.. wont nag you about updates and start updating then demand a reboot.. unline some other os's out there. :)
[15:40] <DrMax> any idea on this ?
[15:41] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: are you familiar with xor?
[15:41] <ke0kw> xorg
[15:41] <Dr_Willis> ke0kw:  Xorg is the X used in ubuntu...  replaced  Xfree a few years back....
[15:41] <Dr_Willis> :)
[15:41] <Dr_Willis> !info xorg
[15:41] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: are you sure?
[15:42] <scarleo> coz_: I'm trying to manually remove all glideapps entries now and it seems to work
[15:42] <coz_> scarleo,  ah excellent
[15:42] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: cuz I am referring to this http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/plz-fix-the-caps-lock-response-time-glitch-in-linux-distros-881317/page3.html
[15:42] <Dr_Willis> used to be using xfree on linux, then there was some licensing issues/disagreements.. so people moved to xorg I think.
[15:42] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: can you see post number 43
[15:42] <Saik2> anyone know where to go to change the IP onubuntu LTS server?
[15:43] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: its a small modification I need to do so that caps lock acts like a regular key
[15:43] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: someone gave this suggesion on the forum, but its french to me
[15:44] <BluesKaj> Saik2, it's usually best to do it manually on your router
[15:44] <Dr_Willis> #43 is refering to patching the source code i imagine.. you dont (that i have ever seen) patch the binaries  ke0kw
[15:44] <zykotick9> Saik2, if you aren't use NM then /etc/network/interfaces
[15:44] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: so its not possible?
[15:44] <thangavel> hey guyss..i have downloaded the gparted..now how to repair my filesystem??
[15:45] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: to make the modifiction?
[15:45] <scarleo> coz_:  ikonia Thanks for your help, manual editing did the trick
[15:45] <Dr_Willis> ke0kw:  if you knew how to recompile X from source, and apply the patch befor compiling.... its possible
[15:45] <Duolos> What's the easiest/best way to installed Ubuntu (gnome) into Kubuntu 11.04?
[15:45] <Dr_Willis> ke0kw:  now if the patch worked...  no idea
[15:45] <jamesanslow> Dr_Willis do you mean migrate to ubuntu?
[15:46] <Dr_Willis> Duolos:  instll ubuntu-desktop package
[15:46] <zykotick9> Duolos, install "ubuntu-desktop" i think
[15:46] <jamesanslow> Duolos *
[15:46] <Dr_Willis> jamesanslow:  huh?
[15:46] <centHOGG> jugalos
[15:46] <Duolos> ah, so that still hasn't changed.  Thank you
[15:46] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: is there any other way to have caps lock act like a regular key
[15:46] <jamesanslow> Dr_Willis: typo
[15:46] <Dr_Willis> ke0kw:  no idea. never tried.. never wanted to.
[15:46] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: hmm
[15:46] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: shiet man
[15:46] <Dr_Willis> ke0kw:  ive seen things about remaping it to ctrl i recall.. but never needed that eitehr
[15:47] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: ahh
[15:47] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: the thing is I want it to run like shift
[15:47] <th0r> ke0kw: then just remap it as shift. I think you could do that with xmodmap
[15:47] <Duolos> Hmm.. if I install ubuntu-desktop, is that going to clutter my KDE system with gnome software?  Kinda just wanted to try the new Unity interface, but not if it costs me my cleanness :P
[15:48] <ke0kw> th0r: does this app come with ubuntu?
[15:49] <th0r> ke0kw: it isn't an app. You use xev to determine the proper key codes, then redefine the key in a file called .Xmodmap in your ~. There are howtos on the web for doing it all. I have capslock defined as tab, but I think I once had it redefined as shift
[15:49] <Saik2> BluesKaj: it's a VM
[15:49] <Dr_Willis> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/remapping-caps-lock-to-shift-844875/
[15:49] <ke0kw> th0r: cool
[15:49] <th0r> I have my moments
[15:49] <llutz> Saik2: /etc/network/interfaces
[15:49] <Saik2> zykotick9: nano /etc/network/interfaces  ?
[15:50] <Dr_Willis> xmodmap -e "remove Lock = Caps_Lock"
[15:50] <Dr_Willis> xmodmap -e "add Shift = Caps_Lock"
[15:50] <zykotick9> Saik, sudo would be required.  Be sure you aren't using Network Manager.
[15:50] <Dr_Willis> try thise 2 commands  ke0kw
[15:50] <Saik2> llutz: nano that, right?
[15:50] <llutz> Saik2: whatever editor you like
[15:50] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: hmm
[15:50] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: will try :)
[15:50] <Saik2> zykotick9: it's a root accout, so sudo won't be needed
[15:51] <Dr_Willis> i cant test.. not on a linux box.
[15:52] <Saik2> llutz: I prefer to stick with what I know lol
[15:53] <ke0kw> so I in xmodmap
[15:53] <ke0kw> in terminal?
[15:54] <th0r> ke0kw: enter those two commands in terminal. If it changes the capslock the way you want, you can then create .Xmodmap to make the change permanent
[15:54] <ke0kw> which 2 commands?
[15:55] <ke0kw> I think the second one is just an output
[15:55] <yeats> Duolos: yes - ubuntu-desktop will install all the GNOME stuff along with Unity - no simple way to clean it up (though somebody on the web may have something useful)
[15:55] <thewrath_> heyall
[15:55] <th0r> ke0kw: the two xmodmap commands Dr_Willis gave you a minute ago
[15:55] <ke0kw> on this page/.
[15:55] <Saik2> on another entirely unrelated to ubuntu note.. anyone in the UK mind pming me? (I'm looking for smething from uk ites and I'm not able to find it)
[15:55] <ke0kw> th0r: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/remapping-caps-lock-to-shift-844875/
[15:55] <ke0kw> over here?
[15:56] <thewrath_> i know this is not a ubuntu quesetion butwhy can i not connect my laptop to both a HDMI and a VGA connection?
[15:57] <th0r> ke0kw: ok....we can work off the website. About 2/3 down that page it talks about adding the two lines to /etc/X11/Xmodmap. If you put the lines there, they will be in effect for all users.
[15:57] <bjhaid> hi
[15:58] <th0r> ke0kw: to just make the changes for yourself, put those two lines in ~/.Xmodmap and every time you log in they will take effect
[15:58] <Dr_Willis> The 2 commands would take affect idmieatly.... as a test
[15:58] <coz_> thewrath_,  I assume you already have the hardware for it ...yes?
[15:59] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: is this one of the commands I pinput?
[15:59] <ke0kw> xmodmap -e "remove Lock = Caps_Lock"
[15:59] <Dr_Willis> ke0kw:  BOTH....
[15:59] <Dr_Willis> at bottom of that url.. it shows them
[15:59] <ke0kw> Dr_Willis: ok
[15:59] <th0r> oh...we're back to the xmodmap commands again <smile>
[16:00] <ke0kw> when i input both of those commands, nothing happens
[16:00] <ke0kw> it goes to a different line
[16:00] <ke0kw> without any message
[16:00] <th0r> ke0kw: how does the capslock work now?
[16:00] <ke0kw> could it still have worked
[16:00] <Dr_Willis> ke0kw:  so...... did you try your caps lock key?
[16:00] <ke0kw> one sec will try now
[16:00]  * Dr_Willis sighs
[16:00] <th0r> hehehe
[16:00] <coz_> thewrath_,  I also assume that you video card can handle 1080p or if not se it to 720p  but I am not up on HDMI settings much
[16:03] <albo> ? ask
[16:03] <th0r> Dr_Willis: I assume he is off getting his test procedure approved
[16:04] <Dr_Willis> not sure why hitting caps lock ajd just typing in the  irc client wouldent been a quick test.....
[16:04] <Dr_Willis> :)
[16:04] <th0r> hehehe
[16:04] <th0r> I used to wonder about such things...but it gave me headaches
[16:04] <albo> Hi all - I have ubuntu server 11.04 installed, I installed ubuntu-desktop, then removed GDM.  Now, upon startup, I don't get a login prompt.  I just get log messages about conf on my monitor.  Any idea how to get my login prompt back?  tia!
[16:05] <Dr_Willis> albo:  try alt-ctrl-f1
[16:07] <th0r> I guess it worked
[16:07] <albo> ok, will do.  but, will that fix it for good?  if not, what must I do to get the prompt automatically to pop up at startup?
[16:08] <brontosaurusrex> how would i disable any auto-logout in 11.04 ubuntu desktop?
[16:08] <ke0ko> I suppose it was my fault for not being specific on the problem
[16:08] <Dr_Willis> theres not any auto logout that i have everf seen brontosaurusrex
[16:08] <brontosaurusrex> it jumps to "enter the password" screen
[16:09] <th0r> brontosaurusrex: that is just the screensaver
[16:09] <Dr_Willis> thats a security setting of the screensaver.. after so lokc the system locks.. that is NOT a logout
[16:09] <ke0ko> Its a problem with the transition from Lower Case to Upper Case letters. For example if you type a few sentences and use "CAPS LOCK" instead of "SHIFT", your sentence will look like this... HOw are you? JOhn is fine.
[16:09] <brontosaurusrex> screesavers are disabled
[16:10] <ke0ko> Dr_Willis: is this more clear? :)
[16:10] <coz_> brontosaurusrex,  open the screensaver app dialog once
[16:10] <Dr_Willis> ke0ko:  never seen that issue on any pc in the 15+ years ive been using them :)
