[18:52] <Firebolt> I never said it wasn't oss

[18:52] <ActionParsnip> tmetro: there is no classic desktop in Oneiric
[18:53] <sacarlson> Firebolt: oh sorry that was zykotick9 that said that

[18:55] <mrantims> Hi, does anyone know if it is possible to prevent apt-get from installing a specific version of a package? I tried pinning with "Pin: Version <version_number>" but it doesn't allow me to install a newer versions of the same package as well.
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> !pin
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> mrantims: you'd need to unpin, install then repin
[18:55] <mohammadtiti> how can i resize my ext3 linux partition in a way that this wouldn't damage the bootablity of the partition? somebody please help me?
[18:55] <tmetro> ActionParsnip: meaning it isn't on the CD, or isn't in the repos?
[18:56] <eckological> what IRC client are you guys useing? Empathy was quite a disapointment. Any experience with xchat-gnome?
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> tmetro: its not an option anymore, not on the cd etc. Unity is the default shell for Gnome ubuntu
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> eckological: pidgin right now..
[18:57] <rattatoue> eckological, im on xchat right now
[18:57] <ActionParsnip> mohammadtiti: if you resize ext3 youo may need to change the entris in fstab as the IDs of the partitions may change
[18:57] <indio> How do I know the path to the file excuted in the terminal?
[18:57] <tmetro> ActionParsnip: thanks, but xfce isn't on my list of options to evaluate at the moment, even if the UI happens to be the closest approximation to GNOME 2. I've seen guides on reverting 11.10 to a classic UI with GNOME 3.
[18:57] <rizzeh> eckological, try irssi
[18:57] <indio> I want to know which file is being executed.
[18:57] <mohammadtiti> what do u mean by "entris in fstab"?
[18:57] <whiskers75> how do you get a Wacom Bamboo tablet to work with Ubuntu 10.10? It is listed under lsusb...
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> tmetro: its a good replacement and you can run your Gnome apps in XFCE without any problem
[18:58] <tmetro> ActionParsnip: ok, thanks.
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> mohammadtiti: the UUID may change if you resize, so you will need to change it to respect the new IDs
[18:58] <tmetro> FYI, found this as an answer to my logout question: http://ubuntu.5.n6.nabble.com/Logout-from-Unity-session-td1393765.html
[18:59] <whiskers75> how do you get a Wacom Bamboo tablet to work with Ubuntu 10.10? It is listed under lsusb...
[18:59] <zaxonspox> hello, i cant add an ISO (not Ubuntu ISO) to USB creator assistant in Ubu 11.04
[18:59] <eckological> ill give xchat-gnome i try... used Pidgin a few years back but wasn't impressed... want a more old-skool lock like the mIRC days with the NN-script <3
[18:59] <ActionParsnip> mohammadtiti: if you run:  sudo blkid    you will see the current IDs. If you resize, these may change, if you run:  cat /etc/fstab    you will see how the IDs are used, that file will need changing
[18:59] <eckological> look*
[18:59] <zykotick9> zaxonspox: the usb creator in ubuntu ONLY works for ubuntu ISOs - unetbootin perhaps?
[18:59] <mohammadtiti> ok...no offense but since i'm completely new to the linux world i didn't get u...sorry. but anyway, tell me is it applicable to do that?
[18:59] <whiskers75> any answers to my question: how do you get a Wacom Bamboo tablet to work with Ubuntu 10.10? It is listed under lsusb...
[18:59] <ActionParsnip> whiskers75: use the 8 character hex ID to find guides
[19:00] <whiskers75> ActionParsnip: What one?
[19:00] <zaxonspox> zykotick9, thx for clarify, is unetbootin availabe under Ubuntu? In some Repos?
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> mohammadtiti: just read and run what I say, you'll see what I mean. Simply shrugging it off because its something new is pretty poor
[19:00] <zykotick9> zaxonspox: i think so

[19:02] <vlt> !ask | Rico-Suave
[19:02] <mrantims> ActionParsnip: thanks. But my concern is, if I unpin and the package is a dependency for another package I try to install, the unwanted version may get installed.

[19:02] <ikonia> gr33n7007h: #bash ?

[19:05] <rattatoue> Rico-Suave, try hitting CTRL ALT F1, see if you get text, sounds like a video driver issue

[19:07] <zykotick9> eckological: once you are out of Xorg, you can use just ALT+Fkey
[19:07] <rattatoue> gr33n7007h, what are you trying to do?
[19:08] <gr33n7007h> monitor my network
[19:08] <Computer-01> ikonia, Sorry, I added the users from different locations I even tried the % and still cannot connect....
[19:08] <rattatoue> gr33n7007h, the link you just gave is not for a network its for some ascii looking art?

[19:08] <gr33n7007h> scroll down
[19:08] <eckological> zykotick9, not even after a reconfiguration of the settings and starting X?
[19:09] <zykotick9> eckological: in X you need to use the ctrl+alt+Fkey
[19:09] <eckological> zykotick9, ofc... im just tirred.. sorry

[19:13] <xcyclist> I don't see a .deb entry from my apt-get search for rbenv.
[19:14] <dragonfly> erpo: maybe remove it from /etc/init.d?
[19:14] <indio> See. I can have two `fpc' commands in /usr/bin /usr/local/bin. How do I know which one is being executed?
[19:14] <erpo> dragonfly: Eurgh. Any more organized way?
[19:14] <bellman> hello, I am looking to pin any packages that would decrease the stability of my Core i7 Quad system. I cannot run debian stable because my hardware is brand new. How do I pin any destabilizing package

[19:14] <Pici> indio: whichever appears on your $PATH first
[19:15] <aethelrick> indio: type which fpc
[19:15] <erpo> dragonfly: What I used to do before upstart was move the symbolic S##samba and S##squid links from /etc/rc2.d/ to /etc/rc3.d/, and then did a telinit 3 after I ran the necessary commands.
[19:15] <dragonfly> erpo: found what you're looking for...check out the package rcconf

[19:15] <indio> Thanks.

[19:18] <OU818> bellman: you should really be running a more advanced OS then linux on that PC inorder to get full value of that processor
[19:18] <erpo> dragonfly: It's mounting an encrypted disk. I don't want to store the keys on the server.

[19:20] <rattatoue> hex``, if your in the latest viersion of ubuntu its 2.7 not 2.4
[19:20] <pangolin> and if you are running hardy, you need to upgrade.
[19:20] <dragonfly> deadmund: sure it does
[19:20] <deadmund> dragonfly: where is the option?
[19:21] <hex``> dragonfly rattatoue ooops... sorry, I didn't see the name of the version. ty
[19:21] <aethelrick> deadmund: yes it does, use an indent
[19:21] <dragonfly> deadmund: what type of aligning are you trying to accomplish
[19:21] <deadmund> I have a paragraph at the top of the page, I want to vertically aligned in the middle of the page.
[19:21] <rattatoue> hex``, np..I only knew that cause I code python too
[19:22] <aethelrick> deadmund: when you say vertically align, what do you mean?
[19:22] <blackarchan> so im making a custom distro for me and some friends with remastersys but the custom launchers(Home,Firefox,LAMP,Scripts)  don`t appear i must drag them manualy from .local/share/applications
[19:22] <Rico-Suave> ctrl alt f1 did not do nothing, the screen was still black
[19:22] <deadmund> aethelrick: How many kinds of vertical alignment are there?  I want the paragraph in the middle of the page (not left and right middle, that's horizontal) I want up and down middle (vertical centering)
[19:23] <deadmund> http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/doityourself-it-guy/diy-vertical-alignment-of-text-in-libreoffice/1369  This suggests some silly hack with a table
[19:23] <rattatoue> Rico-Suave, if you get grub at the beginning try loading up single user mode
[19:23] <deadmund> Here's a bug report confirming my suggestion that libre-office won't vertically align text: https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36117

[19:32] <ActionParsnip> wunnle: is it part of a laptop?
[19:32] <OU818> bellman: your best bet is to get an install of Damn Small Linux and then install virtualbox and inside virtual box run win7 ultimate, you wont be quite as fast but you will get around the protection in place
[19:33] <deadmund> aethelrick: agreed :)
[19:33] <blackarchan> i have only gnome pvg unity-2d

[19:37] <zykotick9> gswallow: unrelated to your issue at hand, but sun-java has (or should have been) removed from partner repo.  Install direct from Oracle is only option now.

[19:49] <Antares> It's easier to switch between windows with superkey + # rather than using the touchpad.
[19:49] <AdminPC-TB2012> ActionParsnip: Like my main drivers PCI,Graphics,sound,wireless,etc.

[19:50] <shadaloo> hi there I edited Unity Plugin in CCSM and it's not making the icons in the dock smaller
[19:50] <shadaloo> any ideas?

[19:55] <Geodesical> Hello! I run 9.04 (EOL), and when I try to put a disc to transfer the newest version, I cannot open any programs, and the disc doesn't read. Also happens when I put in any other kind of disc. Any help?
[19:55] <Jordan_U> Halexander9000: Try running "sudo apt-get update" that should hopefully get rid of the error about unauthenticated packages, and will also therefore probably fix Software Center.
[19:56] <Jordan_U> Geodesical: Can you boot from a recent Ubuntu LiveCD?
[19:57] <zykotick9> zulax: your CPU would have to support virtualization for that to work
[19:57] <Halexander9000> Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/qFP5s3iw
[19:57] <Geodesical> @Jordan_U: No when the disc is inserted any open windows close and the desktop is shown.
[19:57] <zulax> zykotick9, i have done virtualization on my box before, never noticed the x86 before,
[19:58] <Laurenceb_> hi, has anyone here got cadsoft eagle6 to work with ubuntu 10.04LTS?
[19:58] <Laurenceb_> i have an issue with libpng14
[19:58] <zulax> does that mean only 32bit virtualization is pobbible so far?
[19:58] <zykotick9> zulax: egrep '(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo --color=always
[19:58] <Laurenceb_> http://www.element14.com/community/thread/15744
[19:58] <int_ua> Hi. Anyone knows where is the official bug tracker for bsdutils? Specifically renice.
[19:58] <Laurenceb_> i have tried that, but eagle is still giving a warning that the library is missing
[19:58] <Antares> zulax: I have mounted 64-bit Linux distros via VirtualBox.
[19:58] <rattatoue> I have a bunch of files that filename-randomletters, how would I remove the -randomletters part from the file name in terminal?
[19:59] <Laurenceb_> do i have to sync something or something?
[19:59] <Geodesical> Jordan_U: No when the disc is inserted any open windows close and the desktop is shown.
[19:59] <zulax> zykotick9, is shows vmx
[19:59] <OU818> rattatoue: look into the sed command
[19:59] <zulax> Antares, from ubuntu or Windows?
[19:59] <zykotick9> zulax: then you "should" be able to virtualize 64bit (though i'm not sure why you'd want to)
[19:59] <Antares> Zulax: From Windows 7 64-bit.
[20:00] <Jordan_U> Geodesical: I don't think you understood the question, let me rephrase it as two questions. 1: Can you use another machine to make an Ubuntu 11.10 LiveCD, or otherwise obtain an Ubuntu 11.10 LiveCD? 2: If yes to 1, what happens when you reboot with said CD in your CDROM drive?
[20:00] <zulax> zykotick9, i need some binaries of 64 bit centos
[20:00] <zulax> Antares, i am concerned cause when i download the virtual box from package manager it says x86 virtualization
[20:01] <zulax> meaning i could only virtualize 32 bit os from it ?
[20:01] <Geodesical> 1: No, other computer is Mac '96. 2: I would have to try that. Where can I obtain said disc?
[20:01] <zykotick9> zulax: amd64 (aka x86_64)
[20:01] <rutek666> hi all
[20:01] <Antares> Zulax: I created a virtual machine for Linux 2.6 and mounted Linux Mint 12 64-bit edition onto it.
[20:02] <zulax> ok, thanks, thats helps alot
[20:02] <Jordan_U> Geodesical: You can get an Ubuntu CD using a friend's computer, or buy one to be shipped to you via http://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?products_id=915
[20:03] <zulax> zykotick9, what would 32 bit be called as then?
[20:03] <zykotick9> zulax: x86
[20:03] <zulax> zykotick9, well Virtual box specifically says x86 virtualization of x86 OS
[20:03] <Deihmos> ok I just installed ubuntu? how do you add a theme?
[20:04] <Geodesical> Jordan_U: Thank you. Does the OS of the other computer matter (Windows, Mac), or is that irrelevant/
[20:04] <Jordan_U> Geodesical: If you have a working USB drive, whose contents you don't mind losing, that can be used as well.
[20:04] <zykotick9> zulax: though i think you'll see i386 in "uname -m" ;)
[20:04] <zykotick9> zulax: notice how x86_64 starts with x86?
[20:04] <zulax> x86_64
[20:04] <graabein> Hi I've got a question about different user from Transmission daemon and my regular user
[20:05] <Jordan_U> Geodesical: Any OS can be used to burn the CD, there are instructions for burning from Windows, Mac, and Ubuntu at http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download
[20:05] <zykotick9> zulax: if you see x86_64 that's 64bit?  is that the host or guest?
[20:05] <starn> i am in need of help with this.. it's to do with sound and using multiple jacks eg: headphones and speakers etc.  http://pastebin.com/pp48atJE  is my pastebin.
[20:05] <Geodesical> Jordan_U: Okay, thanx
[20:05] <zulax> my machine (host) is 64, but the virtualbox software apparently supports only 32 bit virtualization for linux
[20:06] <zykotick9> zulax: no
[20:06] <zulax> https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
[20:06] <zulax> checked there as well, there is no 64 for linux
[20:06] <zulax> nm, i think its 64 also
[20:07] <giorgio> ciao
[20:07] <zulax> off to download, thanks for help
[20:07] <giorgio> !list
[20:07] <ikonia> zulax: virtal box is available for 64bit
[20:07] <romeyro> hello guys i m trying to install wireshark on my ubuntu but I have some troubles with dependencies. can anyone help please ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/850434/
[20:07] <zykotick9> !it | giorgio
[20:07] <zulax> ciao giorgio, tutto bene
[20:07] <Deihmos> is it better to install x86. SO far things have been a bit buggy
[20:07] <zulax> i only want few binaries, to i think ishould be fine
[20:08] <zulax> isnt there a way i could get those binaries without having to compile myself or having to download the entire os ?
[20:08] <ikonia> romeyro: whoevery built the repo you are using to get wireshark can't manage dependencies, please ask him to fix the repo
[20:08] <ikonia> zulax: what do you want
[20:08] <zulax> ikonia, vorbil tools binaries for centos 5.x 64 bit
[20:09] <ikonia> zulax: this is an ubuntu support channel, what do you want for ubuntu ?
[20:09] <zulax> well i m on ubuntu, just asking about 64 bit virtualization
[20:09] <zykotick9> zulax: using binaries from other distros is a bad idea
[20:09] <ikonia> zulax: what is your ubuntu question
[20:10] <zulax> thats way i m virtualizing
[20:10] <romeyro> ikonia, ah ok, thank you :)
[20:12] <int_ua> anyone knows where is the upstream bsdutils bug tracker?
[20:13] <memee> bonsoir
[20:14] <h00k> !fr | memee
[20:15] <zykotick9> int_ua: if you use ubuntu, you should report the bug to ubuntu - let them deal with the upstream.  I'm guessing it comes from debian?
[20:15] <viktor133> i installed an app via software center, and it's impossible to find, so i can't compile or install it. can anybody help me with that pls?
[20:16] <viktor133> euhm, nevermind that
[20:18] <Deihmos> how do you change the theme ? When I go to change background i see no way to change the theme
[20:19] <xangua> !info gnome-tweak-tool | Deihmos
[20:19] <Antares> Below the screen thing, there is Ambience by default.
[20:19] <marcellus> What would be cause if the global menu bar of firefox disappeared?
[20:19] <Antares> There are 4 themes in there, I think you can add more.
[20:19] <Deihmos> i need to install something to change the theme?
[20:19] <Deihmos> coming like mac os
[20:20] <Deihmos> also is the x86 version more stable? i installed x64 and had so many crashes and lockups
[20:20] <Antares> You can install additional themes, but there aren't too many in there by default.
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> Deihmos: if you want to change thewallpaper you can right click the desktop and click 'change desktop background'
[20:21] <ActionParsnip> Deihmos: both are just as stable
[20:21] <Antares> The theme selection is in Appearance, under the monitor preview thing.
[20:21] <blackarchan> how can i change the default settings in dconf-editor desktop > unity > launcher ?? so that new users use that settings?
[20:22] <Deihmos>  iknow how to chnage the wallpaper. justs did not see a way to install a new theme like in the old versions of ubuntu
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> blackarchan: you can add things in /etc/skel and users will get it
[20:22] <guntbert> DLNA/UPnP: I installed python-coherence and totem-plugins-extra but neither rhythmbox nor totem show a plugin that could be enabled. What is wrong?
[20:23] <blackarchan> ActionParsnip: yea that i now but i don`t have a folder in .gconf/desktop for unity so i think is some wear else
[20:24] <ActionParsnip> blackarchan: its in dconf
[20:25] <blackarchan> ActionParsnip: oke im gonna copy dconf to in /etc/skel to see whats happening tnx
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> blackarchan: its that kind of thinf

[20:31] <ActionParsnip> aptgetinstall: so you want to print from command like a lot of images?
[20:31] <aptgetinstall> yes
[20:31] <aptgetinstall> but, I want to use gui like in gimp.
[20:32] <aptgetinstall> And gutenprint is more versatile than standard printing.
[20:32] <aptgetinstall> Or will the gimp irc give me better advice?
[20:33] <starn> aptgetinstall: earcandy isn't doing what i am wanting...
[20:34] <starn> aptgetinstall: it might work if i knew how to configure my hardware stuff to show more than just one sound thingy..
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> aptgetinstall: the guys in #bash may know a way

[20:36] <nikkubhai> Hi! Can anyone please explain me the difference between openssh and openvpn
[20:36] <h00k> nikkubhai: ssh is secure shell host, and vpn is virtual private network
[20:37] <nikkubhai> So, can I use vpn to let others access internet from my comp
[20:37] <nikkubhai> Just like port forwarding in ssh?
[20:37] <crond> Hi, can someone tell me why every time I install something with apt, I get '0 upgraded, 2 newly installed, 0 to remove and 7 not upgraded' - the 7 not upgraded bit
[20:38] <h00k> nikkubhai: perhaps. SSH uses an application-layer protocol, and VPN is an IP layer solution
[20:38] <zykotick9> crond: "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" would probably take care of those
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> crond: if you run: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade    are some reported as 'held back'?
[20:38] <nibbler> nikkubhai, try to tunnel udp via ssh
[20:39] <nikkubhai> how?
[20:39] <crond> ActionParsnip, yes, they were.  I don't understand why?
[20:39] <h00k> nikkubhai: if you want to extend your entire network to those machines, you could set up a VPN connection betwe n them and you
[20:39] <nibbler> nikkubhai, not at all. thats (one of) the difference
[20:39] <ratcheer> crond: The not upgraded packages are there to be installed, but some of their dependencies on other packages are not yet met. It is usually best to wait a while to see if the dependencies become resolved with future upgrades.
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> crond: the deps for those packages are not ready, although the packages themselves are in the repos
[20:39] <h00k> !vpn | nikkubhai
[20:40] <crond> ActionParsnip, ah okay so I should not yet install them, then, correct?
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> crond: whenall the deps have been put into the repo, they will be installed
[20:40] <aptgetinstall> I want to use a GUI to print jpegs with Gutenprint.
[20:40] <crond> excellent, thanks!
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> crond: they will come down when everything is ready
[20:40] <zykotick9> ratcheer: your statement will not apply in all situations, "apt-get upgrade" does not install NEW packages, the dist-upgrade will
[20:40] <aptgetinstall> Not use bash, because it is easier installing an app and running it than making up code :)
[20:40] <nikkubhai> hOOk : Yes. I want to allow some users to access internet using my connection
[20:41] <csddesk>  usb ports are going cold...
[20:41] <stercor> compiz takes about 45% of my CPU.  Is it a necessary program?
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> stercor: it draws the windows and pretty effects you use
[20:42] <ratcheer> zykotick9: I meant upgrades of packages that are already installed. Same as what ActionParsnip said.
[20:42] <stercor> ActionParsnip: oh...I looked it up and it does 'extra' things.  I just wondered what the effect of removing it would be.
[20:43] <saryth> Hai
[20:43] <ActionParsnip> stercor: just log into the desktop with no effects, or Unity2D and it will not be used
[20:43] <Seryth> I've just bought a new printer, a Canon Pixma IP4200. I've plugged it in, and unfortunately (but predictably!) it's not worked for plug and play. I have a driver CD with Mac/Windows files on...but...welll yeah, this is ubuntu! (xubuntu). Just wondering if this guide would still be valid:http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-get-a-canon-all-in-one-printer-working-with-ubuntu.html
[20:44] <Seryth> !printer > Seryth
[20:44] <ActionParsnip> Seryth: go to the canon site and grab the driver there, a lot of the time there are Linux printer drivers
[20:44] <Seryth> ActionParsnip: I'll check it out, ty.
[20:45] <stercor> ActionParsnip: Hmmm... on my LinuxMint compiz is there, but takes 0-1% of the CPU.  Reboot maybe?
[20:46] <phpn00b> how does Ubuntu compare to Windows?

[20:46] <iceroot> phpn00b: try it
[20:46] <Seryth> ActionParsnip: Just found that place myself now!
[20:46] <zykotick9> phpn00b: how do apples compare to oranges?
[20:46] <ActionParsnip> stercor: sure, why not
[20:46] <stercor> ActionParsnip: Yeah...the Windows solution.
[20:46] <Seryth> phpn00b: If you're not sure whether to try it or not, install VirtualBox first, and give it a whirl. alternatively, use the liveCD for a bit, but you won't be able to save any data.#
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> stercor: it fixes much and is free.
[20:47] <stercor> ActionParsnip: lol.
[20:47] <stercor> bbl.
[20:49] <saryth> Hey, sometimes, in firefox, .exe and zip are registered to notepad. Is there anyway to change them to their programs?
[20:49] <iceroot> saryth: exe and notepad has nothing to do with ubuntu
[20:49] <iceroot> saryth: ##windows
[20:49] <ActionParsnip> saryth: what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[20:50] <xangua> saryth: right clic on the file - properties
[20:50] <phpn00b> how do I schedule a backup of my home folder?
[20:50] <saryth> .exe, as in wine
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> iceroot: you can use windows executables in WIne
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> !backup | phpn00b
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> saryth: what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[20:50] <saryth> ActionParship: oneiric
[20:50] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: users which are using firefox with wine so that there is a notepad entry should go directly to ##windows
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> iceroot: firefox will be a native app, the config of file associtaion will be an ubuntu misconfiguration...
[20:51] <saryth> I have no trace of windows, other than wine, on this box.
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> saryth: is firefox running via wine?
[20:51] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: but i dont see where "notepad" should came from
[20:52] <saryth> Notepad comes with wine
[20:52] <ActionParsnip> iceroot: if you install wine, you get notepad as part of the install
[20:52] <saryth> ActionParsnip:It's native.
[20:52] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: hm never noticed that, thanks
[20:52] <ActionParsnip> saryth: cool, ok lets see
[20:52] <phpn00b> ActionParsnip, I don't want to backup my whole system. Only my home folder
[20:53] <danileigh79> ActionParsnip: Hey, I'm back... even though the gamepad works in terminal under xboxdrv, it only works intermitently in actual games and programs

[20:53] <ActionParsnip> danileigh79: I'd contact the PPA maintainer of the app
[20:54] <TheLogan> Hi folks =)
[20:54] <danileigh79> ActionParsnip: Yeah, I got his email and sent him a message

[20:55] <Laurenceb_> can someone help me install libopenssl 1.0.0 on ubuntu 10.04LTS
[20:55] <TheLogan> Im trying to convert from windows to ubuntu, i have a problem with the installation process. at the moment i have three different cd's 1 with 10.10 one with 11.10 x386 and one with 11.10 x64
[20:55] <TheLogan> The only one i can get working is the 10.10 version
[20:55] <Laurenceb_> ive built from source but its not installed
[20:55] <ActionParsnip> phpn00b: then just copy it all to a removable storage device, I use a cron'd cp job which runs and copies the lot
[20:55] <PatrickBic> TheLogan, problem is?
[20:55] <danileigh79> ActionParsnip: Sorry if I was begining to get a little bitchy earlier, I hate it when things don't go right with programs/apps/peripherals
[20:56] <TheLogan> so i want to ask, is it possible to install 10.10 and then update to 11.11? or is that like going from win xp to win7?
[20:56] <saryth> ActionParsnip: It's associated with Wine and Archive Manager, for exe and zip respectively, however, they show up as unknown in FF and open in notepad
[20:56] <PatrickBic> TheLogan, totally possible
[20:56] <ActionParsnip> danileigh79: np, there seems to be light. Its not something I've used. Nor do I own an Xbox
[20:56] <TheLogan> Awesome, then thats what im going to do. Thanks PatrickBic =)
[20:56] <PatrickBic> either use the update UI or run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade"
[20:56] <ActionParsnip> saryth: doesn't firefox have its own associations...?
[20:56] <PatrickBic> UI most likely for you
[20:56] <xangua> TheLogan: you can upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 and then to 11.10
[20:57] <saryth> ActionParsnip: Lemme check....
[20:57] <PatrickBic> xangua, well.. ofc ;) but i thought he meant more like "can i get from 10.10 to 11.10 somehow"
[20:57] <TheLogan> Ok, yea ive programmed for 2 years (in unity3D) but my knowledge of commandline in windows is next to nil.. so UI it is ^^
[20:58] <TheLogan> yea, i wanted to know if its possible, knowing how to is even better thanks both of you PatrickBic and xangua =)
[20:58] <ActionParsnip> TheLogan: if you want CLI in Windows, use powershell ;)
[20:58] <PatrickBic> TheLogan, UI tells you like "there is a new version, do you want to update" (dont remember the exact wording but.. w/e)
[20:58] <TheLogan> ActionParsnip: CLI? =)
[20:58] <PatrickBic> command line interface
[20:58] <TheLogan> PatrickBic: awesome
[20:58] <saryth> ActionParsnip: Yes, but both are set to "Always ask". It asks, but only gives me notepad as an option
[20:58] <TheLogan> heh, i barely use commandline unless i really cant avoid it =)
[20:59] <ssta> never use notepad...not for *anything*
[20:59] <danileigh79> TheLogan: it comes in andy a lot here in Ubuntu/Linux

[21:01] <PatrickBic> dtfdtf, some of them :P
[21:01] <ssta> ActionParsnip: it mangles line endings, plays games with encodings...it's asking for pain
[21:01] <ActionParsnip> dtfdtf: its a handy pack for installing codecs, yes
[21:01] <PatrickBic> ActionParsnip, must be some other player then, my fault
[21:01] <rumble-pack> ActionParsnip, its a simple node.js script
[21:01] <PatrickBic> w32codecs (if its still avail)
[21:01] <dtfdtf> ok. cool. is that all??
[21:01] <rumble-pack> running as a server
[21:02] <PatrickBic> dtfdtf, give it a try ;)
[21:02] <ActionParsnip> dtfdtf: try the package I gave then rerun the player, you will need TAB and ENTER to accept the license
[21:02] <saryth> Here's a image of my problem
[21:02] <saryth> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1630307/Opening Minecraft.exe_010.png
[21:02] <danileigh79> dtfdtf: get the extras package, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade, and you should be good
[21:02] <ActionParsnip> rumble-pack: and how do you access it on the local system?
[21:02] <danileigh79> brb, smoke break
[21:03] <ActionParsnip> saryth: link is bad
[21:03] <dlentz> avi is just a container, and i don't think you need restricted-extras for it IIRC
[21:03] <dlentz> it would depend on the video format in the container
[21:03] <rumble-pack> ActionParsnip, by navigating to http://<IP_ADDRESS>:Port in my browser
[21:03] <ActionParsnip> dlentz: its good to install though
[21:03] <TheSimkin> vlc just plays everything anyhow
[21:03] <dlentz> ActionParsnip,  fair enough
[21:03] <TheSimkin> i'm a bit ticked that vlc 2.0 isn't available for linux though. who the heck does that.
[21:03] <ActionParsnip> rumble-pack: then use your LAN IP and access the same port number
[21:03] <Dimmuxx> anybody got sandy bridge vaapi working in vlc?
[21:03] <dtfdtf> danileigh79, i'm almost finished installing the ubuntu-restricted-extra... do i still do the upgrade?
[21:03] <dlentz> TheSimkin, it's in Precise already
[21:04] <ActionParsnip> saryth: do you use the dropbox app in Ubuntu?
[21:04] <danileigh79> dtfdtf: upgrade in terminal means to install the updates, so yes
[21:04] <ratcheer> TheSimkin: There are instructions on OMG Ubuntu and other places on how to install the new VLC from PPA
[21:04] <saryth> ActionParsnip: Yes, I uploaded it directly from Shutter, however. Here's a new link
[21:04] <adamus> anyy help with k-mail
[21:04] <adamus> it doesn't work
[21:04] <adamus> i used with ubuntu 10 and 11
[21:04] <adamus>  any suggestion
[21:04] <saryth> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1630307/Opening_%20Minecraft.exe_010.png
[21:04] <FloodBot1> adamus: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:04] <adamus> need help pls
[21:04] <ActionParsnip> saryth: in the public folder, you can right click a file and under the dropbox entry you can click to copy the public address
[21:05] <romeyro> i m using ubuntu 10.10 do i have to upgrade it to the 11.10 ?
[21:05] <adamus> ok floodBot1
[21:05] <ActionParsnip> saryth: drop down the box and click 'other app...'
[21:05] <dtfdtf> ok danileigh79, will keep this in mind.
[21:05] <mg__> romeyro: no, you don't have to, you can if you want to.
[21:05] <rumble-pack> ActionParsnip, i guess i have to open it through my firewall
[21:05] <xangua> (14:50:13) xangua: saryth: right clic on the file - properties
[21:05] <dlentz> romeyro, you don't have to, but offivial support for 10.10 ends April 30
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> rumble-pack: yes if you have configured your firewall
[21:06] <xangua> romeyro: well you have to upgrade to something when 10.10 supports end
[21:06] <rumble-pack> ok thanks
[21:06] <saryth> ActionParsnip: It's a Find File, I'm assuming I'm going to have to find Wine and Archive manager files manually?
[21:06] <dlentz> romeyro, if you don't like upgrading, then i suggest using 12.04 LTS when it's released
[21:06] <tester> pl
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> saryth: wine will be /usr/bin/wine
[21:07] <romeyro> xangua, dlentz   its because i really dont like unity
[21:07] <adamus> i asked also the antivirus installation in ubuntu any help?
[21:07] <dlentz> yeah, i figured, but i wasn't going to say it.. :P
[21:07] <TheLogan> danileigh79: ok ^^ oh well, ill handle it =D
[21:07] <starn> i am in need of help with this.. it's to do with sound and using multiple jacks eg: headphones and speakers etc.  http://pastebin.com/pp48atJE  is my pastebin.  i am on Dell Dimension E521
[21:08] <Laurenceb_> can someone help me install libssl 1.0.0 on ubuntu 10.04LTS?
[21:08] <phpn00b> are there any alternative to MS Exchange server?
[21:08] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | Laurenceb_
[21:08] <dlentz> starn, what media player are you using?
[21:08] <ActionParsnip> phpn00b: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer
[21:09] <danileigh79_2> TheLogan, I was just being funny... Ubuntu forums helped me out a lot when I first start using Ubuntu
[21:09] <starn> At the moment Clementine
[21:09] <dlentz> starn, also pastebinning alsa info might help: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/AlsaInfo
[21:09] <saryth> ActionParsnip: It opens in wine once, but then, with a new download, it says notepad again.
[21:09] <phpn00b> ActionParsnip, Exchange is more than just a mail server
[21:09] <romeyro> dlentz, because there are some tools i want to install but in my repository its still the old version for the dependencies, and it wont install them
[21:09] <rtdos> is it possible to create a temporary 'guest' account so that when the user logs out what ever he saved is deleted or removed and the next 'guest' to login has a 'clean slate' ?
[21:09] <tester> hi. how .. cat /dev/urandom multi output ? to screen and /dev/dupa ?
[21:10] <reCAPTCHA> Hi! I have a USB keyboard connected to my laptop... so, how can I disable my laptop keyboard.
[21:10] <reCAPTCHA> ?
[21:10] <ActionParsnip> saryth: download the file.Right click the file and change association there
[21:10] <saryth> Rtdos: That is a default account, I believe.
[21:10] <dtfdtf> uhh, just wondering why it is called restricted-extras ??
[21:10] <danileigh79_2> Recaptcha, what kind of laptop
[21:10] <dlentz> romeyro, that's why i prefer rolling releases (using debian sid)
[21:11] <saryth> ActionParsnip: It's just awkward if I want the file only once, but I guess that's my only option. Thanks anway.
[21:11] <saryth> anyway*
[21:11] <TheSimkin> because it contains some stuff that has patent technology or licenses from other companies.
[21:11] <TheSimkin> it's kinda questionable in that it's not completely free
[21:11] <reCAPTCHA> danileigh79_2: MacBook
[21:11] <dtfdtf> ooh
[21:11] <ActionParsnip> saryth: http://www.ehow.com/how_2033405_manage-file-type.html  may help
[21:11] <aBound> dtfdtf, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[21:11] <starn> dlentz: http://pastebin.com/JcebGXAC  there you go.
[21:11] <dlentz> dtfdtf, because it's restricted to non-fascist countries
[21:11] <TheLogan> danileigh79_2: Well, I've used computers all my life so I'll probably manage, but if I do run into something big and scary i can probably just hide out here with you guys ;)
[21:12] <ActionParsnip> saryth: http://askubuntu.com/questions/20015/firefox-application-associations-not-working   maybe
[21:12] <dtfdtf> i had no idea of its political standpoint. lol.
[21:12] <dlentz> starn, is ytour headset not plugged in?
[21:13] <starn> dlentz: it's plugged in i want to be able to play sound through both headphones and speakers... but i want only media player to play through speakers..
[21:13] <danileigh79> reCAPTCHA: hold on, I have a friend who's good with mac, i'm an x86 kind of girl ;P
[21:13] <TheSimkin> i know osx pretty good
[21:13] <TheSimkin> what is the question
[21:13] <danileigh79> TheSimkin: He's trying to disable laptop keyboard due to using usb keyboard
[21:14] <TheSimkin> i don't think you can do that.
[21:14] <ratcheer> dtfdtf: Because they are not free software. Many people do not like to install non-free software, so they keep that stuff in separate repositories to make it easily avoided.
[21:14] <reCAPTCHA> danileigh79, TheSimkin using ubuntu 10.04
[21:14] <dlentz> starn, it's odd that alsainfo isn't showing your headest as an aplay device
[21:14] <romeyro> dlentz, what do you suggest me, upgrade to 11.10 or wait for the 12.04
[21:14] <TheSimkin> reCAPTCHA: pretty sure you can't do that.
[21:14] <dlentz> romeyro, 12.04 is supported for 5 years
[21:14] <dlentz> again, if you don't like to upgrade..
[21:15] <TheSimkin> reCAPTCHA: if you *CAN* do it you'd have to use "evdev"
[21:15] <starn> dlentz: is there an way to add it?? i know what i want to do works in windows.. but gnu-linux drivers are not same as theirs...
[21:15] <saryth> Thanks for the help. I'm sure I'll find something. I have to go. Everyone be cool!
[21:15] <TheSimkin> i think that's it's called anyhow.
[21:15] <reCAPTCHA> TheSimkin: Alright... I thought that there might be an easy solution...
[21:15] <romeyro> does 12.04 is available actually dlentz  ?
[21:15] <starn> also HP Out is my headphones dlentz.
[21:15] <ActionParsnip> romeyro: in alpha 2, yes
[21:15] <danileigh79> reCAPTCHA: She says you can't disable it on a mac, only if it was an x86 machine
[21:15] <TheSimkin> reCAPTCHA: there is a tool out there that lets you seperate diff keyboards out to diff x sessions.... so you could have multipl x sessions from a single computer.  but it's prety ugly.
[21:15] <dlentz> romeyro, it's still in develpment, release in April
[21:15] <TheLogan> hmm, during installation, its asking 'who are you' and wants name and password and other info, however ive filled all fields with no problems, but the 'Fordward' button is still greyed out
[21:15] <TheSimkin> and i guess that would work for you.
[21:16] <ActionParsnip> TheLogan: use lowercase letters for ALL boxes
[21:16] <dlentz> starn, so your headset isn't usb?
[21:16] <TheLogan> Ah, thanks =)
[21:16] <romeyro> ActionParsnip, dlentz oh nice, i ll check on google how i can upgrade 10.10 to 12.04
[21:16] <TheLogan> ActionParsnip:
[21:16] <starn> dlentz: no.. it's not USB..
[21:16] <sveinse> Does it exists any overview of which upstart services are being defined/used on ubuntu?
[21:17] <TheSimkin> reCAPTCHA: actually, maybe ther is a way, can you go to /dev/input/by-id  and see if you have more than one keyboard entry? (maybe remove the usb ad plug it back in to compare and see)
[21:17] <Ben64> romeyro: you have to go 10.10 -> 11.04 -> 11.10 -> 12.04
[21:17] <ActionParsnip> romeyro: you'll need to upgrade to natty, then to oneiric, then to precise
[21:17] <TheSimkin> reCAPTCHA: if so, tyhen you should be able to tailor your xorg.conf to use that specific input device vs the generic "keyboard" input device!!
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> romeyro: i'd just clean install precise. you can restore data from backup
[21:18] <TheSimkin> reCAPTCHA: do you know what i mean?
[21:18] <TheSimkin> reCAPTCHA: that'd be pretty cool if it worked! plz let me know .
[21:18] <reCAPTCHA> TheSimkin: Trying it out.
[21:19] <danileigh79> TheSimkin: that'll only work per session, he'd have to delete it (if it'll even let him)
[21:19] <danileigh79> TheSimkin: everytime he rebooted
[21:19] <dlentz> starn, then i'm stumped on how to do that on one device
[21:19] <romeyro> ActionParsnip yes, it ll be faster. Thank you guys. But just like that, unity is not in 12.04 ?
[21:19] <TheSimkin> danileigh79: depends, if the internal kb doesn't show up as usb then it should be pretty easy to make a script to make a ln to the right one on boot.
[21:19] <danileigh79> romeyro: Yes, it is
[21:19] <romeyro> i mean i can switch to gnome ?
[21:20] <ActionParsnip> romeyro: if you install xubuntu, it won't be
[21:20] <TheSimkin> danileigh79: otherwise yes, it might be a bit of  a pain...
[21:20] <starn> dlentz: all i know is on my mother board there is audio ports than on the front is a different chip..
[21:20] <ActionParsnip> danileigh79not in xubuntu oneiric....
[21:20] <danileigh79> ActionParsnip: whoops I caught that wrong... sorry for stepping on your toe
[21:20] <dlentz> starn, i don't think it's a different chip.
[21:20] <TheSimkin> danileigh79: even if it is usb.. maybe he can parse the data from /proc/bus/usb to sort out which is which.
[21:20] <ActionParsnip> romeyro: if you dislike unity, install kubuntu or xubuntu
[21:21] <dlentz> front output just plugs into the card (or mobo)
[21:21] <starn> it's attached under hard drive with cord leading to motherboard all i know.
[21:21] <danileigh79> TheSimkin: I've been trying to do it with my usb mouse vs touchpad, and I couldn't even delete it...
[21:21] <TheSimkin> danileigh79: delete it?
[21:21] <TheSimkin> i was thinking you'd change the xorg.conf to use just one of them vs the generic one.
[21:22] <TheSimkin> only problem is you can't be sure what order they will come up in
[21:22] <TheSimkin> i love linux
[21:22] <TheSimkin> even the impossible is possible :)
[21:22] <starn> dlentz: is there away to figure out what model stac92xx is?? for dell dimension e521? i know options snd-hda-intel model=stack3 is dimension e520.. but not e521...
[21:23] <danileigh79> TheSimkin: I see what you're getting at... *facepalm*
[21:23] <dlentz> model=dell-3stack probably works if the e520 is similar
[21:23] <starn> would a pastebin of my alsa-base-conf be helpful to see why it's not working the way i want?
[21:23] <WebDawg> ctrl+alt+f4 what is that supposed to do?
[21:24] <WebDawg> switch ttys right?
[21:24] <dtfdtf> yey!! i worked!!
[21:24] <TheSimkin> switch you to console f4
[21:24] <danileigh79> dtfdtf: good :)
[21:24] <dtfdtf> many thanks guys!
[21:24] <WebDawg> hmm it switches back to the gdm login when I do that command.
[21:24] <WebDawg> Heh.
[21:24] <TheSimkin> WebDawg: you could have a gdm running on session 4
[21:24] <TheSimkin> try ctrl-alt-f1
[21:24] <TheSimkin> that should be cli
[21:25] <WebDawg> TheSimkin, Thanks I just wanted to make sure.
[21:25] <romeyro> thank you for your help guys have a nice day :) i ll be back when i ll get everything installed
[21:25] <dlentz> starn, i can't think of how to separate sounds like you want, either the headphones are plugged in and muting the speakers or they're not
[21:25] <dlentz> i'm not sure how windows does it
[21:25] <rebe> ubuntu have any preinstalled soft to mount files like .iso ?
[21:25] <starn> dlentz: http://pastebin.com/508VhqSF  would anything in that suggest away??  and do you maybe know someone or somewhere to ask?
[21:26] <ActionParsnip> dtfdtf: its a lot of data but very worth it
[21:26] <dlentz> that just looks like the standard alsa-base.conf
[21:26] <danileigh79> starn: ubuntu forums is one of the best places to check or google something like "sound out of both speakers and headphones in ubuntu"
[21:26] <TheLogan> installation done, trying to boot for the very first time... excited =D
[21:27] <starn> danileigh79: i've tried that i've been working on this since 6:30am my time it's now 3:27pm.. i can find ways to stop sound from coming out of both but now how to enable them.. and most solutions are fore machines that are not mine.
[21:28] <dtfdtf> ActionParsnip: What is a lot of data ? were you referring to the ubuntu-restricted-extra?
[21:28] <Laurenceb_> can someone help me install libssl 1.0.0 on ubuntu 10.04LTS?
[21:28] <Laurenceb_> ive tried building from source
[21:28] <ActionParsnip> dtfdtf: yeah, its 250Mb or so, right?
[21:28] <danileigh79> starn: might be something as easy as changing something in cmos/bios
[21:28] <Laurenceb_> but im still missing libssl.so.1.0.0
[21:28] <stercor> ActionParsnip: The reboot brought compiz down to 5%.  This is good, but I'll watch it.
[21:28] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | Laurenceb_
[21:28] <Laurenceb_> i know
[21:29] <Laurenceb_> in know
[21:29] <stercor> ActionParsnip: Thanks for the pointer.
[21:29] <Laurenceb_> but i cant find it can i
[21:29] <Laurenceb_> or i wouldnt have asked
[21:29] <starn> danileigh79: i certainly hope so..... kinda.. would be rather annoying i've spent all this time trying to figure it out on my own and asking people.
[21:29] <Laurenceb_> im not stupid
[21:29] <Laurenceb_> so
[21:29] <FloodBot1> Laurenceb_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:29] <Laurenceb_> can anyone help me with this please?
[21:29] <danileigh79> starn: what machine are you runnng?
[21:29] <ActionParsnip> Laurenceb_: if there is no PPA you will need to compileit
[21:29] <TheLogan> yay, it works ^^
[21:29] <WebDawg> What is the best way to log into an ubuntu install via remote desktop or such?
[21:29] <starn> Dell Dimension E521.
[21:29] <WebDawg> vnc?
[21:29] <dtfdtf> ActionParsnip: don't know. it's installed anyway. So, how does one go about checking the apt-get installed-item's size??
[21:29] <Laurenceb_> ActionParsnip: already done
[21:30] <danileigh79> starn: desktop?
[21:30] <starn> yes
[21:30] <Laurenceb_> but how do i get the libssl
[21:30] <ActionParsnip> WebDawg: what activities are you going to do in the remote session?
[21:30] <danileigh79> starn: sound card integrated or separate
[21:30] <stercor> Laurenceb_: what's the problem?
[21:30] <starn> i believe intergrated..
[21:31] <WebDawg> ActionParsnip, I need to be able to see what is on the screen.  Point and click I already have ssh enabled.
[21:31] <dlentz> danileigh79, see http://pastebin.com/JcebGXAC
[21:31] <FPC> We cannot access a program that we installed
[21:31] <ActionParsnip> WebDawg: but why do you need to be able to see what is on screen, for what purpose?
[21:31] <WebDawg> ActionParsnip, What?
[21:32] <ActionParsnip> WebDawg: why do you need to see the screen?
[21:32] <WebDawg> To use the computer?
[21:33] <stercor> Laurenceb_: I did a Web search for 'gscan2pdf ppa' and it came up with http://gscan2pdf.sourceforge.net/  This can be used as an example for installing a ppa.
[21:33] <FPC> We can't access a program that we installed can anyone help us?
[21:33] <stercor> Laurenceb_: Hope this is the answer to the unknown question. :-)
[21:34] <guntbert> FPC: don't repeat but give more details
[21:34] <ActionParsnip> WebDawg: yes but to achieve what? What activities will be done once you are connected...
[21:35] <WebDawg> browsing the internet.
[21:35] <FPC> We have ubuntu 11.10 Installed software (Powerterm) from internet. how do we open the program
[21:35] <CodeGnome> Hi folks. I can't get tar to backup extended attributes on 11.04. This is probably related to libarchive, but I'd like to know if there's a simple way to backup files with extended attributes.
[21:36] <ActionParsnip> WebDawg: does the client system have an X server on it (Desktop linux will have this)?
[21:36] <LL2|Android> Hmm
[21:36] <WebDawg> ActionParsnip, Yes.
[21:36] <LL2|Android> You know how they say init CAN'T be killed?
[21:36] <guntbert> FPC: how did you install it?
[21:36] <LL2|Android> With -9, it doesn't seem to do anything
[21:36] <ActionParsnip> WebDawg: then just launch the browser from your SSH session. be sure to connect with:  ssh -X username@server
[21:37] <FPC> 3rd party installed it for us over the internet
[21:37] <ActionParsnip> WebDawg: you can then run:   firefox &      and the browser will run.
[21:37] <guntbert> LL2|Android: Is that an ubuntu support question?
[21:37] <LL2|Android> No
[21:37] <guntbert> FPC: ask them
[21:37] <starn> danileigh79: is it possible my hardware is some how not configured correctly? or is windows just evil and some how made it illegal lol
[21:37] <guntbert> !ot > LL2|Android
[21:37] <danileigh79> starn: I found a way to do it in Windows... not sure if there is a linux solution though
[21:37] <starn> danileigh79: yeah it's easy to do so in windows..
[21:38] <FPC> they told us to go to terminal and type in the name of the software but that doesn't get us anywhere
[21:38] <WebDawg> ActionParsnip, now what should I do if I want to see what the user is doing on the screen or an error that comes up or such?
[21:38] <guntbert> FPC: how should *we* know?
[21:38] <FPC> they also sent us directons to download a launcher to put icon on the desktop and those directions do not work either.
[21:39] <starn> danileigh79: would my alsabase and dmesg and alsa infromation script thingy help???
[21:39] <danileigh79> starn: it's a sigmtel setting, requires being able to edit the setting...
[21:39] <ActionParsnip> WebDawg: ahh if its for that then vnc is handy
[21:39] <ActionParsnip> !vnc | WebDawg
[21:39] <danileigh79> starn: I already saw it courtesy of dlentz
[21:39] <FPC> looking for general help on how to open a program
[21:39] <guntbert> FPC: just talk to them - we cannot know
[21:39] <starn> danileigh79: alright.. all of those?
[21:39] <guntbert> FPC: generally type the name .. like they said :-)
[21:39] <danileigh79> starn: hang on, gonna look into something, may not respond for a few minutes
[21:40] <FPC> can you help us with how to install a launcher?
[21:40] <WebDawg> ActionParsnip, I did not know X server interaction was so simple he.
[21:41] <WebDawg> ActionParsnip, does it require a running x server on the remote server to launch software like that?

[21:41] <dtfdtf> i can see you webcam
[21:42] <danileigh79> starn: click on output and tell me what it says under Chose a device for sound out put (analog or digital)?
[21:42] <h00k> !offtopic | dtfdtf
[21:42] <Pancakez> is there a way I can see the connection speed of eth0 in terminal?
[21:43] <starn> danileigh79: analog speakers. for connector. and choose a device for sound output internal audio analog stereo...      do note i have an s/pdif port. but not shown in this.
[21:44] <toxboi`> I'm runny Ubuntu 11.04 on my laptop. After continuously running it for few days, I get this problem when I can't see the VPN connections in the gnome-panel and even can't edit network connections. Any way to debug this?
[21:44] <danileigh79> starn: and click on hardware
[21:44] <w0_> hi -- I'm running ubuntu 11.10, and sometimes I will close all of my firefox windows, and then click to open firefox, but it says that there is already an instance, that is not responding.  is there any way to prevent this?  much th
[21:44] <starn> danileigh79: i also have 1 headphone jack [front] and 4-5 jacks for audio in back.. i think 5.0 surround.. and i clicked hardware.
[21:45] <dtfdtf> hehe
[21:45] <dtfdtf> just messing about. won't happen again
[21:45] <reinis> first time usinng this IRC client :)
[21:45] <danileigh79> starn: on the hardware tab, look at the device and tell me how many inputs/outputs
[21:46] <csddesk> w0_,  not really, get more ram/faster cpu. could also clear cache for faster clean up of memory after shutdown possibly
[21:46] <orz> hi, ive got a question about the 11.10 server. the fans is running on max so is there any way to set so the fan speed will automaticly adapt to the heat ?
[21:46] <ActionParsnip> WebDawg: you will get  a window of the desktop, you said you wanted to see the desktop to help folks...
[21:47] <w0_> csddesk: hmmm.  okay.  kinda a bummer tho.
[21:47] <w0_> how about a reinstall?
[21:47] <danileigh79> starn: still there?
[21:47] <w0_> (used to werk for my windows probs =/ )
[21:47] <csddesk> how long are you waiting after you close FF anyway?
[21:47] <starn> danileigh79: choose a device to configure: internal audio 1 output/ 1 input analog stereo duplex.  [i have it set to stereo duplex...] well actually it'll still only show the 1 output / 1 input even with it changed to something else.. maybe cuz headphones in??? but none the less... hardware wise i'm supposedly able to support surround sound.
[21:47] <PPPPPPP> QUESTION: What is the simplest way to use a default gnome desktop instead of Unity?
[21:48] <PPPPPPP> and why is there no alt iso for this lol?
[21:48] <danileigh79> starn: it's hardware liimitations, not software... sorry hun, you can't run both outputs at the same time
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> PPPPPPP: install xfce4, log off and log into xfce, it will run a lot like gnome2
[21:48] <danileigh79> starn: regardless of how many jacks there are, the sound can only run out of 1 output at a time
[21:49] <danileigh79> starn: My recommendation is now to go to your local radio shack and buy a 1/8 jack splitter
[21:49] <jack^_> D:
[21:49] <PPPPPPP> ActionParsnip, alright, thanks friend
[21:50] <danileigh79> starn: sorry, 3.5mm splitter, not 1/8 lol
[21:50] <rallias> How do I get the indent/unindent tool available in the windows build of gedit on ubuntu?
[21:50] <TheSimkin> starn: ... i think you should be able to use the amplified line out and the non amplified line out at the same time.
[21:51] <TheSimkin> at least i have done this before.
[21:51] <starn> i already have one danileigh79 the issue is it would still be in the headphones.
[21:51] <TheSimkin> worth a try before heading to the store
[21:52] <Yonotu> I have an (almost) fresh installed Ubuntu system and it boots way too long (1min 40)... could it be because I use btrfs?
[21:53] <starn> TheSimkin: i don't understand what you just said.
[21:54] <danileigh79> Yonotu: mine clocks in right around 1:15 for a boot up, might just be hardware limitations....
[21:54] <sweb> gandum_zaar: welcome to ubuntu IRC. i'm mohammad
[21:54] <TheSimkin> starn: some audio cards have an amplified line out and just a regular line out (no amp) you should be able to use both
[21:54] <TheSimkin> starn: if you don't understand, go with the option given... use a line splitter
[21:55] <danileigh79> TheSimkin: he only has one about in the actual sound card, it can't process output through two mediums at the same time, it's hardware
[21:55] <danileigh79> TheSimkin: *output
[21:55] <danileigh79> TheSimkin: if he had an amplifying output, it ould list as 2 outputs, not just one
[21:56] <TheSimkin> ahh
[21:56] <starn> TheSimkin: ok... and danileigh79 http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/dime521/en/SM_EN/specs.htm  thats everything my computer has.. for audio and video.. well i installed my own video card.
[21:58] <danileigh79> starn: Thanks, but I already got your computer info :) When you told me that ubuntu shows 1 output/1 input, I already knew you couldn't have to sound outputs goig at the same time
[21:58] <mang0> ActionParsnip: I installed the drivers for my printer, it still doesn't show up :?
[21:58] <starn> well i did configure it earlier to show remaped device
[21:59] <trism> rallias: select the area then tab to indent the block, shift+tab to unindent
[21:59] <TheSimkin> starn, what the heck does it mean by "up to " 1mb of cache.
[21:59] <TheSimkin> either it has a mb of cache or it doesn't?
[21:59] <ActionParsnip> mang0: remove any printers relating to that one and reboot, then readd
[21:59] <mang0> ActionParsnip: This is the only printer I've ever had connectd to this machine.
[21:59] <starn> TheSimkin: i honestly have no clue.. dell is stupid sometimes.
[22:00] <ActionParsnip> TheSimkin: if the chip differs, it will have less cache
[22:00] <Yonotu> When I look in bootchart I find that the entire "mountall" takes 1 entire minute
[22:00] <danileigh79> Yonotu: bad sectors on hd?
[22:00] <cyberworm54> I have a question guys, what is the best distro for a aspire s3 ?
[22:00] <cyberworm54> where everything works?
[22:01] <ActionParsnip> Yonotu: is the partition healthy?
[22:01] <himborg> ok
[22:01] <TheSimkin> ActionParsnip: shouldn't they list the minimum amount you'd get then??
[22:01] <ActionParsnip> cyberworm54: try ubuntu....
[22:01] <TheSimkin> that'd be like buying an icecream cone with "up to 3 scoops" but you get just one.
[22:01] <ActionParsnip> TheSimkin: i guess, its marketing though. Up to is easier to qualify
[22:02] <danileigh79> lmao at ActionParsnip
[22:02] <dlentz> TheSimkin, giant corporations are know for their brutal honesty...
[22:02] <Yonotu> Yes, it is even fresh installed with ext2 on /boot and / as btrfs, I also have another Windows on the same drive and another windows drive connected...
[22:02] <starn> danileigh79: TheSimkin: i guess i'll just not use VOIP when i am on ubuntu.. i don't live alone and just don't want people hearing the people on the computer [they often cuss] i know if i unplug my headphones i believe it shows more devices...
[22:02] <cyberworm54> ActionParsnip:will it support ll my hardware or I ll have to jyst try and see?
[22:02] <ActionParsnip> cyberworm54: try it in liveCD/USB and see
[22:03] <cortman`> Live CD
[22:03] <cyberworm54> ActionParsnip thank you I ll try it
[22:03] <danileigh79> cyberworm54: most hardware will be supported out of box, but if you have any difficulties, you can look in additional drivers
[22:03] <ActionParsnip> cyberworm54: the wifi make take some effort if it doesn't work straight away, depends on the chip
[22:03] <danileigh79> ActionParsnip: that's what I was leading into
[22:03] <danileigh79> cyberworm54: do you know if you have a broadcom wifi adapter?

[22:04] <Yonotu> danileigh79, it runs btrfs.fsck for like 50 seconds so that might be the problem

[22:04] <kingnebex> hey action wts up?..
[22:04] <Yonotu> I mean fsck.btrfs

[22:05] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: not much, work tomorrow night which sucks
[22:05] <Jordan_U> Yonotu: Does fsck.btrfs give any errors? (note, it won't fix anything as that hasn't been implemented yet).
[22:05] <kingnebex> y?
[22:05] <Yonotu> I'll check again.
[22:05] <danileigh79> Yonotu: I only run ext, so I don't know, I'm sorry

[22:07] <ActionParsnip> Pikkachu: sorry, no
[22:08] <laMela87> ciao a tutti
[22:08] <LL2|Android> Also, I found the file where the panic function is defined
[22:08] <Pikkachu> ActionParsnip: aghw sorry you were one of those I just ignored? sorry
[22:08] <kingnebex> it would if u came in prepared u know
[22:08]  * LL2|Android wonders what would happen if he deleted it from the file
[22:08] <TheSimkin> starn: i don't think i understand what your problem is at all.

[22:09] <TheSimkin> just wanted to save you a trip to the store if i could.

[22:09] <LL2|Android> I'd really want to see what happens
[22:10] <CodeGnome> [Workaround Found] Backup and restore extended attributes by including a metastore .metadata file in a tarball. It's kludgey, but it works. YMMV.
[22:10] <zectorpt> Gentoo64: whell... and delete a line in sysctl.conf and echo another one?
[22:10] <Gentoo64> zectorpt: ?
[22:10] <Gentoo64> zectorpt: you could add an echo to a local rc file but whats the point
[22:10] <Gentoo64> whern you can just edit sysctl.conf
[22:10] <Yonotu> My btrfs partition is screwed, it gives a lot of errors when I check it, o well
[22:12] <[IFOC]75> hi, how much space do you recommend that I allocate for ubuntu?
[22:12] <[IFOC]75> hard drive space, I mean
[22:12] <Gentoo64> [IFOC]75: up to you
[22:12] <[IFOC]75> is 50 GB enough?
[22:12] <Gentoo64> 6gb upwards
[22:12] <Gentoo64> id say
[22:12] <[IFOC]75> oh
[22:12] <[IFOC]75> I gave it 1 TB on my desktop
[22:12] <ActionParsnip> [IFOC]75: about 7Gb for / is enough
[22:12] <Pikkachu> [IFOC]75: mine is 20GiB
[22:12] <Gentoo64> if you got a big drive then partition it
[22:12] <Gentoo64> and use big for data
[22:13] <ActionParsnip> [IFOC]75: the rest can be used for /home
[22:13] <[IFOC]75> hmm
[22:13] <[IFOC]75> great
[22:13] <[IFOC]75> this laptop only has 500 GB
[22:13] <[IFOC]75> I'm glad I can still use Linux when I'm away
[22:13] <Gentoo64> instead of having like a 200gb home you might as well use it as a 200gb files mount point
[22:13] <ActionParsnip> [IFOC]75: 500Gb is plenty
[22:13] <[IFOC]75> oh, I can't give all of that to linux
[22:13] <[IFOC]75> some of that needs to be Windows 7
[22:14] <[IFOC]75> a lot of it, actually
[22:14] <[IFOC]75> unfortunately
[22:14] <Roasted_> sorry to hear that :/
[22:14] <[IFOC]75> that's why I was giving 50 G
[22:14] <[IFOC]75> it's a work laptop too
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> [IFOC]75: give the same amount RAM (plus 10%) as swap space, about 7Gb for / and the rest for /home
[22:14] <Gentoo64> 50gb is well enough
[22:14] <[IFOC]75> and they use Microsoft Virtual PC
[22:14] <[IFOC]75> I tried using VirtualBox on their .vhd's but it didn't work well

[22:15] <bagels> How can I force ubuntu to automatically mark a file as executable?
[22:15] <ActionParsnip> bagels: chmod +x file
[22:16] <bagels> ActionParsnip, these files are on a CDROM
[22:16] <m1ke> hi there
[22:16] <TheSimkin> bagels: to do it automatically the best way is to use acl's.
[22:16] <[IFOC]75> oh heh
[22:16] <[IFOC]75> I've only used 30 GB
[22:16] <[IFOC]75> on this system
[22:16] <[IFOC]75> ... how
[22:16] <FloodBot1> [IFOC]75: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:16] <[IFOC]75> I put so much stuff on this
[22:16] <[IFOC]75> oh, sorry
[22:16] <bagels> TheSimkin, what's an acl?
[22:17] <TheSimkin> bagels: access control list
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> bagels: then you will need to mount the whole CD as executable. Why did you not say it was on a CD??
[22:17] <bagels> TheSimkin, how do i go about doing that?
[22:17] <[IFOC]75> thanks for the advice, and I've really enjoyed Ubuntu
[22:17] <bagels> ActionParsnip, sorry, I was asking for the whole OS, so I can stop having to change each file
[22:17] <[IFOC]75> best OS I've ever used
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> [IFOC]75: linux uses shared libs, so if some libs are already in use by one app they will not be loaded again,same with installed apps. WIndows wastes a LOT of resources duplicating stuff and bloats heavily
[22:18] <TheSimkin> bagels: this guide is alright, but once you have it installed you can use gui tools to set the acls (much easier than learning the cli lingo) http://beginlinux.com/server_training/server-managment-topics/1038-ubuntu-804-access-control-lists
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> bagels: you will need to remount the CD so that it is executable
[22:18] <TheSimkin> bagels: in kde i just right click on a folder and set advanced permissions... not sure how to do it in gnome but i expect it's just as easy.
[22:18] <sweb> gandum_zaar: welcome back
[22:19] <gandum_zaar> are
[22:19] <crizzy> ActionParsnip: windows itself doesn't waste anything, 3rd party applications just in general have a lot less shared libraries outside the windows platform libraries themselves
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> crizzy: a 7gb install for Win7 just for the base OS. Pretty poor if you ask me.
[22:19] <TheSimkin> bagels: basically apt-get instlal acl; change fstab options to include acl, reboot, right click on folder and go to advanced perms
[22:20] <crizzy> ActionParsnip: that exactly includes all the windows frameworks, aka these magical 'shared libraries'
[22:20] <bagels> TheSimkin, that sounds confusing
[22:20] <TheSimkin> even this? bagels: basically apt-get instlal acl; change fstab options to include acl, reboot, right click on folder and go to advanced perms
[22:20] <bagels> ActionParsnip, how do i mount it as executable
[22:21] <TheSimkin> bagels: btw, you really shouldn't set the execute flag by default, it is somewhat retarded.
[22:21] <Gentoo64> bagels: what are you trying to do? would it not be easier to copy whatever it is over and chmod it
[22:21] <TheSimkin> kinda like feeding the tigers at the zoo.
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> bagels: look into the mount command
[22:21] <BrendanMcc> heya guys :) - Running Ubuntu 11.04 in Vmware. My problem is I cant get an ethernet device up, via DHCP or assigning a static IP. When assigning static, I cant even ping the router/gateway.. Can someone plz help :)
[22:21] <TheSimkin> bagels: you can execute things just by runnin sh ./commandyouwanttorun
[22:21] <bagels> Gentoo64, for some reason I can't copy all the files over, i keep getting i/o errors
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> crizzy: then throw in about 6Gb of office....
[22:23] <Gentoo64> bagels: weird, tried memtest?
[22:23] <Jordan_U> TheSimkin: "sh ./commandyouwantorun" if commandyouwantorun is a POSIX sh script, not if it's an executable, and not even if it's a bash script.
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> bagels: if you want to install an app via Wine, I suggest you use playonlinux, makes things a little nicer
[22:24] <crizzy> ActionParsnip: what has the office to do with the OS?
[22:24] <bagels> ActionParsnip, does that work with nero?
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> crizzy: its bloated
[22:24] <gandhijee_> hey when i create a deb package with dpkg, does it look @ /proc/mounts for anything?
[22:24] <crizzy> so is libreoffice
[22:24] <crizzy> nothing to do with os, anyway
[22:25] <ActionParsnip> bagels: Nero doesn't work with wine as far as I know, there is nero for Linux
[22:25] <bagels> See, the DVD drive came with Nero, and on the box it says nero for linux, but it looks like nero for windows
[22:25] <ActionParsnip> crizzy: its not nearly as big
[22:25] <Gentoo64> windows 7 is still fast..
[22:25] <crizzy> ActionParsnip: yet it sucks more
[22:25] <ActionParsnip> bagels: there are plenty of native burners for Linux
[22:25] <ActionParsnip> crizzy: works flawlessly here
[22:26] <crizzy> i bet you do very meaningful things with it

[22:37] <bushy> Well, I've read the docs and things aren't working as expected.
[22:37] <bushy> I have a small home network
[22:38] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: or have you ever used apt-get or aptitude in command lne?
[22:38] <bushy> I have a second drive on my linux box and have tried setting sharing and creating permissions such that I can access the share from the windows box
[22:38] <rattatoue> bushy, oh so samba share?
[22:38] <dtfdtf> hi guys. quick question on jre ... does ubuntu need this? (recalling that most Windows OS do)
[22:38] <ActionParsnip> dtfdtf: doesn't need it, no
[22:39] <bushy> When I try setting folder permissions to read and write they get set back to none.  UBUNTU won't take my settings
[22:39] <OerHeks> dtfdtf, openJDK runs fine with me
[22:39] <dtfdtf> so, we're good to go
[22:39] <rattatoue> bushy, is it a system folder or one in your home?
[22:39] <dtfdtf> just get flash and all good
[22:39] <dtfdtf> ... good for media, youtube, facebook, etc.
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: you've not seen that?
[22:40] <Gentoo64> youtube defaults to html5 now
[22:40] <Gentoo64> dont need flash no more
[22:40] <lavadude> Hey guys
[22:40] <dtfdtf> oooh
[22:40] <lavadude> I need your help
[22:40] <rattatoue> !question
[22:40] <kingnebex> ActionParsnip> yes i have but i ignored it y?
[22:40] <lavadude> When i run this command: sudo -u git -H git clone git://github.com/gitlabhq/gitolite /home/git/gitolite
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: the surce of those updates are called repositories, or repos for short. I suggest you get updated
[22:41] <lavadude> but i get the following errorL fatal: Could not change back to '/root': Permission denied
[22:41] <bushy> It is not in my home, It is a second drive
[22:41] <Buceph> Pidgin's window won't come up now. I've started Pidgin, and I've clicked on Pidgin from the bar and from the envelope thingy.
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: are you installing the packet tracer using software centre?
[22:41] <OerHeks> lavadude, is your UDER name git ? > /home/git/gitoline ??
 its just that packet tracer dnt u know it?
seen what?
[22:41] <lavadude> what's uder?
[22:41] <lavadude> user?
[22:42] <OerHeks> lavadude, user
[22:42] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: are you using software centre to install the packet tracer?
[22:42] <rattatoue> lavadude, try sudo -Rf gitolite
[22:42] <lavadude> i'm running the command as root
 yes i havve bt as i have told u i gnore them
[22:42] <rattatoue> lavadude, sounds like you had a messed up original gitclone
[22:42] <royale1223> lavadude: when do you get thsi error?
[22:42] <OerHeks> lavadude, so something like /home/$user/git/gitoline ?
[22:42] <lavadude> https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/wiki/Gitolite
[22:42] <rattatoue> bushy, when you go into that directory can you move files around as a normal user or do you need to be root do so?
 packet tracer is a study program from cisco networking academy software center doesnt have that
[22:43] <Deihmos> I just installed ubuntu. There is something wrong with the sound. WHen boot it takes at least 3 minutes after boot to hear the start-up sound
[22:43] <bushy> I can work the files w/o any problem while on the UBUNTU box and I can read the files from the WINDOWS box
[22:43] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: so what file have you downloaded?
[22:44] <ActionParsnip> bushy: does the windows system's firewall allow the traffic?
[22:44] <lavadude> @rattatoue that does work
[22:44] <lavadude> i mean doen't
[22:44] <rattatoue> lavadude, did it fix it?
[22:44] <rattatoue> oh
[22:44] <gordon1234> bushy, Have you put the share in your /etc/samba/smb.conf file. Also, when you change file permission, are you doing this using sudo or just through the file manager?
[22:44] <gamemakingdude> Hi, does anyone know how to setup an ftp server in ubuntu 10.10?
[22:44] <rattatoue> lavadude, did you try running it from the /home/git/ directory? so it removes the whole gitolite folder?
[22:45] <bushy> I beleive so , I can disable it and try again but that doesn't address why when trying to set permissions they immedaitely revert to NONE
[22:45] <ActionParsnip> gamemakingdude: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FtpServer
[22:45] <lavadude> @rattatoue no, let me try that
[22:45] <ActionParsnip> gamemakingdude: i suggest you install openssh-server and use sftp via that
 on the download link it says that the program has 60 smtn mb bt when i download it its just in kilibyts and it has a bin extension
[22:45] <Pooky5> hi guys, how can I forward traffic in my localPC to anoter IP?
[22:45] <bushy> BTW....The folder icon shows arrows in both directions
[22:46] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: then mark the file executable and run it
[22:46] <bushy> I am changing permissions in the guui
[22:46] <gamemakingdude> Actionparsnip i installed it, where do i set up an account?
hw do i do thatTTT?
[22:46] <bushy> From the file manager
[22:47] <gamemakingdude> What you mean the file manager?
[22:47] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: chmod +x filename
[22:47] <ActionParsnip> gamemakingdude: installed which?
[22:47] <bushy> I haven't read anything suggesting entering anything in SAMBA
[22:47] <gamemakingdude> openssh-server
[22:47] <anonymousinuk> can anyone help with burning iso?
[22:47] <gamemakingdude> I tried that link already
[22:47] <lavadude> @rattatoue that worked!
[22:47] <rattatoue> lavadude, you just had a messed up gitclone from before
[22:48] <lavadude> i removed the folder and ran the command from /home/git
[22:48] <Dayofswords> can someone reminder me how to copy folders with cp?  like "cp file 1 file2 folder1 folder2 folder3 destfolder" comes back angry about the directories
[22:48] <ActionParsnip> gamemakingdude: then it will use your local user acconts, so:  sudo adduser name     will make users and they will be given access to their own home and will have the access you grant them an local users on the file system
[22:48] <gamemakingdude> ok
 what?
[22:48] <gamemakingdude> Ill try connecting to it now
[22:49] <gamemakingdude> And what's the password to be?
[22:49] <Pikkachu> anonymousinuk: not if you don't ask
[22:49] <gamemakingdude> for the ftp?
[22:49] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: chmod +x   will make the file executable, you just need to give it the file name, obviously if the file is in a different folder you will need to specif the full pat
[22:49] <tfitts> anyone here have experience setting up reverse dns?
[22:49] <anonymousinuk> 2nd time round m8
[22:49] <xubuntu5> how can i count the # of times a match occurs just use a counter in a while ($var =~ /$match/){ count++ }?
[22:49] <ActionParsnip> gamemakingdude: your system password you log in with
[22:49] <gamemakingdude> It doesnt work
[22:49] <_Marcus> I just made a new user, how do I add him to the administrators group so he can use sudo?
[22:49] <gamemakingdude> I get a incorrect password
[22:49] <ActionParsnip> gamemakingdude: not sure about ftp
[22:50] <xubuntu5> wrong box sorry
[22:50] <gamemakingdude> Well i need to use ftp to transfer files from my window pc to my ubuntu VPS
[22:50] <ActionParsnip> gamemakingdude: windows can connect to sftp using filezilla
[22:50] <gamemakingdude> Im entering the ip of the VSP
[22:51] <gamemakingdude> it finds it but it wont let me connect to any of my accounts
 i dnt undrstnd u at all man
[22:51] <gamemakingdude> Says password is incorrect
[22:51] <gamemakingdude> no
[22:51] <gamemakingdude> login is incorrect.
[22:51] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: so say the file is held in your Download folder and is called 'scan.bin'   you would run:   chmod +x ~/Download/scan.bin
[22:52] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: simple stuff
[22:52] <anonymousinuk> can anyone help with this error code while burning iso to cd
[22:52] <anonymousinuk> SCSI error on write(133392,16): [3 0C 00] Write error
[22:52] <gamemakingdude> So, the password must be different or something because it's not letting me use the password for it
[22:52] <ActionParsnip> anonymousinuk: does the ISO pass MD5 test?
[22:52] <anonymousinuk> how would i test this?
[22:53] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | anonymousinuk
[22:53] <rattatoue> Dayofswords, you mean like cp -R * /destination?
[22:53] <Crash_O-D> how do i get google hrome to add this for start up --no-referrers
[22:53] <tokuchi> come to rizon and join #Slamjam
[22:53] <_Marcus> How do I make a user able to run sudo?
[22:53] <Gentoo64> Crash_O-D: add it to the command...
 not as much as u think im new in these kynda stuff
[22:53] <Roasted_> hello! can someone explain to me the differences between authorized_keys and known_hosts?
[22:53] <Gentoo64> Crash_O-D: check if there's an /etc/chromium/default
[22:54] <Crash_O-D> Gentoo64 were? i use short cut in menu?
[22:54] <rattatoue> _Marcus, you need to edit your /etc/sudoers file
[22:54] <ikonia> Roasted_: one is user based, the other is host based
iv got an idea
[22:54] <anonymousinuk> ok ill have a look thnx, just before i do though , what is meant by md5?
[22:54] <Roasted_> hey there ikonia
[22:54] <ActionParsnip> _Marcus: sudo usermod -a -G admin username
[22:54] <ikonia> hey
[22:54] <_Marcus> rattatoue: What do I add?
[22:54] <Roasted_> ikonia, revisiting the thing I was trying to do earlier. :P
[22:54] <ikonia> Roasted_: I guessed
[22:54] <rattatoue> _Marcus, read what ActionParsnip posted. I have always done it manually via edit of sudoers
[22:54] <Crash_O-D> gentoo64 im pon xubuntu with xfce
[22:54] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: so you dont use CLI in windows either I guess..
[22:54] <Gentoo64> Crash_O-D: is there a file called /etc/chromium/default
[22:55] <gamemakingdude> Actionparsnip any idea why i can't connect to my ftp?
[22:55] <ActionParsnip> rattatoue: adding a user to the admin group is fareasier and cleaner than messing with sudoers
[22:55] <ActionParsnip> gamemakingdude: try rebooting the box
[22:55] <rattatoue> ActionParsnip, true, but I am use to it the other way. So its personal choice that way.
[22:55] <ActionParsnip> rattatoue: its the whole purpose the group exists...
[22:55] <Roasted_> ikonia, considering I can ssh without any key (I assume thanks to known hosts) it becomes confusing to me on how I can stage my setup, because I'd like to see it fail without the keys so I can understand it
[22:56] <aechylus126> Hello, has anyone used wkhtmltopdf
[22:56] <ikonia> Roasted_: I explained this to you before
[22:56] <rattatoue> ActionParsnip, true, but I still prefer the other way. So again personal choice.
[22:56] <aechylus126> I can't seem to get it to support css3
[22:56] <kingnebex> i only have ubuntu in may machine
[22:56] <Crash_O-D> gentoo64 no i can not find it in there
[22:56] <ikonia> Roasted_: that is getting authed against /etc/passwd
[22:56] <ikonia> Roasted_: that is nothing to do with host keys
[22:56] <gamemakingdude> Ok ill try rebooting
[22:56] <ikonia> Roasted_: you need to disable non-key based auth if you want it to be keys only
 can u help me i wwant to us termina to install it
[22:56] <Roasted_> ikonia, I see. Sorry it's just a gray area to me, but I remember that now.
[22:56] <Gentoo64> Crash_O-D: ok, edit /usr/share/applications/chromium file and add the command argument to chromium line
[22:57] <Layne89> Hi all! I'm just a noob in Ubuntu, and I have a problem. I need to mount smb resource and I don't get how to do it. I read forums, and tried something like sudo mount -t cifs //<IP_ADDRESS> /media/storage , but it does not works. I need help. If someone can tell me what to do, please explain. Thanks in advance
[22:57] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: what is the name of the file and where is it stored (Case sensitive)
[22:57] <antoniodominguez> hi!!
[22:57] <antoniodominguez> i need the UPS Tuner Software of MGE (Merlin Gerin) anyone can help me? is very urgent
[22:57] <Gentoo64> Crash_O-D: that will make it global, or you could just make a desktop launcher with those commands
[22:57] <Roasted_> ikonia, I guess I just don't trust the keys since I can't test it if it fails, but I'll look into disabling non-key based auth to test.
[22:57] <ActionParsnip> rattatoue: so your personal choice is the hardway, strange...
[22:57] <Roasted_> ikonia, do you know by chance how to disable it offhand?
[22:57] <rattatoue> ActionParsnip, rofl. Hard to you maybe easy to me. Its what im use to.
[22:58] <ikonia> Roasted_: /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[22:58] <ikonia> Roasted_: PasswordAuthentication no
[22:58] <rattatoue> ActionParsnip, its really not that big of deal, its just a different way to get to the same result.
[22:58] <ikonia> Roasted_: it is set to PasswordAuthentication yes
[22:58] <_Marcus> Thank you ActionParsnip and rattatoue
[22:58] <ikonia> Roasted_: change it to no
[22:58] <ikonia> Roasted_: restart sshd
[22:58] <antoniodominguez> i need the UPS Tuner Software of MGE (Merlin Gerin) anyone can help me? is very urgent
[22:58] <Roasted_> ikonia, doesn't exist
[22:58] <rattatoue> _Marcus, yvw
[22:58] <ActionParsnip> rattatoue: easier to run a single command than mess in a text file which could possibly break sudo
[22:58] <Roasted_> ssh_config?
[22:58] <ikonia> Roasted_: no, sshd_config on the server
[22:58] <kingnebex> on my desktop and has one hell of long name y?
[22:58] <Roasted_> I have ssh_config, not sshd_config
[22:59] <Crash_O-D> gentoo64 will not let me edit file in that folder im am a root user
[22:59] <ikonia> Roasted_: on the server ?
[22:59] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: if you can give the name of the file, I can give the command how to run it
[22:59] <rattatoue> ActionParsnip, just let it go man.
[22:59] <Gentoo64> Crash_O-D: permission denied? :s or a blank file?
[22:59] <Roasted_> ikonia, on the server I have both (sorry I was on my desktop)
[22:59] <bushy> I checked samba.conf   I found my listed in it as writeable =no.  I will change it but I need to know how to change the file from read only .
[22:59] <Roasted_> ikonia, why would the server have different than my desktop?
[22:59] <Crash_O-D> gentoo64 i right clicked hit properties
[22:59] <ikonia> Roasted_: think it through - how can changing settings on the client change how the server authenticates
[22:59] <kingnebex> ActionParsnip:on my desktop and has one hell of long name y?
[23:00] <ikonia> Roasted_: you're not running sshd on your client, that's why you don't have an sshd config
[23:00] <Gentoo64> Crash_O-D: no edit it from terminal, sudo vim/nano whatever
[23:00] <gamemakingdude> ok i rebooted
[23:00] <gamemakingdude> Still not able to connect
[23:00] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: you said, as I saw. If you can give the name, I can give the command
[23:00] <antoniodominguez> i need the UPS Tuner Software of MGE (Merlin Gerin) anyone can help me? is very urgent
[23:00] <Crash_O-D> gentoo64 how about gedit?
[23:00] <Roasted_> ikonia, my desktop was never acting as the client, which makes me wonder why the server would ahve anything different. Besides swapping keys in and out I changed nothing else on the server.
[23:00] <kingnebex> ActionParsnip:awkey..bt im thinkn of redownloadn it
[23:00] <bushy> Do I just prepend sudo to gedit for samba.conf
[23:00] <HoNgOuRu> how do I install the cg compiler?
[23:01] <gamemakingdude> I'm not able to connect to the ftp service i have on my ubuntu
[23:01] <ikonia> Roasted_: what ???
[23:01] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: how will that change anything?
[23:01] <Gentoo64> Crash_O-D: gksudo gedit is better than running the file manager as root
[23:01] <kingnebex> ActionParsnip: no p
[23:01] <rattatoue> bushy, you could chmod 066 thefile in the terminal that would make it read write
[23:01] <ikonia> Roasted_: we ssh'd in from your desktop earlier
[23:01] <Gentoo64> Crash_O-D: get used to nano if your new its easier
[23:01] <ikonia> Roasted_: how can it have "never been a client" we ssh'd in from it earlier
[23:01] <anonymousinuk> parsnip that link didnt help, should i be looking for a md5 checker ?
[23:01] <Roasted_> ikonia, that was using my laptop
[23:01] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: you can rename the file if you want
[23:01] <ikonia> Roasted_: does your desktop have "ssh" on it
[23:01] <Roasted_> ikonia, yes
[23:01] <kingnebex> ActionParsnip:wat chane wat?
[23:01] <ikonia> Roasted_: then it is an ssh client - it has /etc/ssh_config
[23:02] <ikonia> Roasted_: it's that simple, ssh needs that config to work
[23:02] <KaiForce> can you boot the live CD without the GUI?
[23:02] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: the name of the file, so it's shorter...
[23:02] <Layne89> Hi all! I'm just a noob in Ubuntu, and I have a problem. I need to mount smb resource and I don't get how to do it. I read forums, and tried something like sudo mount -t cifs //<IP_ADDRESS> /media/storage , but it does not works. I need help. If someone can tell me what to do, please explain. Thanks in advance
[23:02] <Roasted_> ikonia, so the sshd_config is generated when someone ssh's into the box in question?
[23:02] <ikonia> Roasted_: no
[23:02] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: you must be real new to computers dude
[23:02] <ikonia> Roasted_: sshd_config is required before a ssh server can start
[23:02] <ikonia> Roasted_: ssh generates nothing dynamically
[23:02] <Gentoo64> Crash_O-D: just make a desktop file if you dont need it global, its much easier as if you edit /usr/share/applications file every time you update chromium youll need to re-edit it
[23:03] <Crash_O-D> gentoo64 gksudo gedit google chrome?
[23:03] <bushy> I prepended the command with sudo and that allowed me to save the changes
[23:03] <Gentoo64> no
[23:03] <KaiForce> Layne89:  error message?
[23:03] <kingnebex> ActionParsnip:im doin my best DUUUUDE
[23:03] <Roasted_> ikonia, sec, my desktop didn't have openssh-server installed actually...
[23:03] <kingnebex> ActionParsnip:by da way done renamin it
[23:03] <ikonia> Roasted_: of course it won't
[23:03] <gordon1234> bushy, sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf You will need to restart the service .... good reference here https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html
[23:03] <ikonia> Roasted_: it's CLIENT not a SERVER
[23:03] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: its cool man, rename the file so it's smaller, name it what you want
[23:03] <Layne89> KaiForce: yes
[23:03] <Gentoo64> Crash_O-D: right click the desktop, create launcher, launcher name: chromium, command: chromium --no-referrers or whatever it was
[23:03] <Roasted_> ikonia, I just split the tasks of my desktop vs file server. my desktop used to be myd esktop + server in 1
[23:03] <KaiForce> Layne89 - that server path doesn't have a share specified
[23:03] <ikonia> Roasted_: openssh-server installs the SERVER - hence the name of the package openssh-SERVER
[23:04] <Roasted_> ikonia, now I have sshd_config. gotcha...
[23:04] <Gentoo64> Crash_O-D: why do you even need this no referers?
[23:04] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: call it:  install.bin
[23:04] <Crash_O-D> gentoo64 for a script
[23:04] <KaiForce> should look like similar to this:  //<IP_ADDRESS>/share
[23:04] <eniac> Jesi li tu?
[23:04] <kingnebex> ActionParsnip:done that all ready
[23:04] <alexxandroid> yo
[23:04] <bushy> gordon 1234- thanks for the tip.  I read the doc
[23:04] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: then run:  chmod +x ~/Desktop/install.bin; sudo ~/Desktop/install.bin
[23:04] <KaiForce> Is there a way to boot the live CD directly to terminal, no GUI?
[23:04] <Gentoo64> KaiForce: yes
[23:04] <ActionParsnip> !text | KaiForce
[23:05] <KaiForce> Gentoo64: tyvm
[23:05] <zykotick9> ActionParsnip: would that work for a livecd?
[23:05] <pixelhack> ok I have a question, in ubuntu how do I change how the terminal looks?
[23:05] <Layne89> KaiForce: It has. Anyway, i can connect by SSH (Putty), but I need mount share. In Windows this share is visible and it mounts as network disk
[23:05] <KaiForce> zykotick9: i'll try it and let you know
[23:05] <Gentoo64> pixelhack: right click and edit preferences
[23:05] <Gentoo64> gnome-terminal that is
[23:05] <zykotick9> KaiForce: my answer would be - probably not.
[23:05] <kingnebex> ActionParsnip:ima coppy that
[23:05] <KaiForce> Layne89: what do you mean.  Post the exact thing you are trying.
[23:06] <pixelhack> thanks gentoo64
[23:06] <ActionParsnip> kingnebex: cool, if you read it. Can you see what is going on?
[23:06] <Roasted_> ikonia, I see now. denied (publickey)
[23:06] <ikonia> Roasted_: there you go
[23:06] <eniac> big13
[23:07] <eniac> meni se diskonektovao komp
[23:07] <sasa90> benvenuti al nord
[23:07] <big13> ja sam pokusao ponovo da pokrenem compiz
[23:07] <Gentoo64> !language
[23:07] <big13> cube
[23:07] <Crash_O-D> gentoo64 thanks so much, but think it may be more then support for the script is saying
[23:08] <Layne89> KaiForce: sudo mount -t cifs -o rw //<IP_ADDRESS> /media/storage    . Mount says: "wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //<IP_ADDRESS>,        missing codepage or helper program, or other error        (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might        need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program)        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try        dmesg | tail  or so "
[23:08] <bushy> Thanks to everyone for the help.  I'm working now!!!!!!!!1
[23:08] <gamemakingdude> Anyone know why i can't login into my accounts via ftp?
[23:08] <KaiForce> Layne89: you have no share specified, just a server.  You need //<IP_ADDRESS>/share
[23:09] <Roasted_> ikonia, generated a new key, added the pub contents to authorized_keys, now I get the yes/no prompt I did before. However, since the passwordauthentication is set to no, this clearly suggests it's just adding this entry to known hosts. eh? am I on the right path?
[23:09] <anonymousinuk> Actionparsnip helpi need noob friendly help MD5 means nothing to me
[23:09] <gamemakingdude> I have vsFTPd installed atm
[23:09] <gamemakingdude> should i remove that
[23:09] <Roasted_> ikonia, ha, still denied. cancel that.
[23:09] <gamemakingdude> and use something else?
[23:10] <ActionParsnip> anonymousinuk: its how you test ISOs to make sure they are complete and consistent
[23:10] <gordon1234> Layne89, what sort of drive is it you are trying to mount? Windows?   Nothing to do!". Ideas?
[23:11] <ikonia> Roasted_: see how it works now ?
[23:11] <Roasted_> ikonia, I'm getting the hang of it, still denied tho even though I have keys set up...
[23:11] <ikonia> Roasted_: take a look through the sshd_config file and you'll see the settings for allowing key based auth, host based auth, password based auth etc
[23:12] <ikonia> Roasted_: it sounds silly, but the settings are quite obvious in how they are named, have a read through
[23:12] <anonymousinuk> ok i failed to find what i needed on the link u sent what was i looking for?
[23:13] <ActionParsnip> anonymousinuk: what ISO are you using?
[23:13] <gamemakingdude> Argh, this is annoying me, I really need the ftp to be setup asap
[23:13] <anonymousinuk> brasero (trying)
[23:13] <Layne89> gordon1234: As I know, it is Windows 7 on that machine, and it has virtualized by Vmware Debian. I am a noob in network technologies. I heard that folders are shared by Samba
[23:14] <Roasted_> ikonia, thanks. there doesn't seem to be that much meat in this config though. I'll google around though. appreciate it.
[23:14] <psf> hello, i'm having trouble resizing mdadm partition. it says: "The filesystem is already 976757239 blocks long.  Nothing to do!". Ideas?
[23:14] <ActionParsnip> anonymousinuk: no thats an application. what is the ISO file you are trying to burn???
[23:15] <anonymousinuk> lol winxp pro
[23:15] <anonymousinuk> soz dude
[23:15] <ActionParsnip> !piracy | anonymousinuk
[23:15] <ikonia> Roasted_: there should be enough "obvious" settings in there to help you get the basic setup and then search for more detailed stuff
[23:15] <anonymousinuk> why is it pirate?
[23:15] <Roasted_> ikonia, from what I understand, the only authentication possible right now is key based authentication, which is denying me. Ic an't help but to wonder I goofed up the key stuff as a result.
[23:16] <ikonia> Roasted_: possibly
[23:16] <anonymousinuk> it has been payed for but no backup was made
[23:16] <ikonia> anonymousinuk: write to microsoft they will send you free media
[23:16] <danileigh79> anonymousinuk: it is illegal to burn a paid operating system to disc, thus, considered piracy
[23:16] <ActionParsnip> anonymousinuk: we have no way of knowing that
[23:16] <ActionParsnip> ikonia: thanks
[23:17] <anonymousinuk> so i cant write this iso with ubunto?
[23:17] <danileigh79> anonymousinuk: if you need to make a backup, use the "bcakup tools" provided with a legitimately purchased copy of Windows
[23:17] <ikonia> anonymousinuk: where did you get the iso
[23:17] <anonymousinuk> how can i do that when the pc wont boot?
[23:17] <erpo> Was libjpeg-turbo not in lucid?
[23:17] <gordon1234> Layne89, So you are trying to access a drive that is running of a Windows 7 guest OS under a Linux Host OS?
[23:17] <ikonia> anonymousinuk: if you call microsoft they will send you out a replacment CD
[23:18] <anonymousinuk> its  torrent
[23:18] <Roasted_> lol
[23:18] <anonymousinuk> ikona for free i doubt it
[23:18] <ikonia> anonymousinuk: it is unwise to try to use media not provided with your license
[23:18] <ikonia> anonymousinuk: they do it for free, I have used the service when I stood on my CD
[23:18] <ActionParsnip> Layne89: http://maketecheasier.com/share-files-in-virtualbox-between-vista-guest-ubuntu-host/2008/11/12
[23:19] <danileigh79> anonymousinuk: Each windows disc comes with a key, use that disc and reinstall with the same key
[23:19] <Layne89> gordon1234: yes
[23:19] <zykotick9> erpo: libjpeg-turbo doesn't seem to be in lucid or 11.10, are you sure it's an ubuntu package?
[23:19] <anonymousinuk> i have the product key but no backup disc or files
[23:19] <erpo> zykotick9: On 11.10, I have libjpeg-turbo62.
[23:19] <ikonia> anonymousinuk: if you call microsoft they will send you a CD
[23:19] <Dr_willis> anonymousinuk,  for what OS?
[23:19] <danileigh79> anonymousinuk: then how did you install it in the first place?
[23:20] <danileigh79> Dr_willis: WinXP PRo
[23:20] <anonymousinuk> i didnt
[23:20] <zykotick9> erpo: libjpeg-turbo62 is in 11.10, but not lucid
[23:20] <ikonia> anonymousinuk: ok - here we go. Contact microsoft for media, this channel is for ubuntu support.
[23:20] <danileigh79> anonymousinuk: then how did this computer come to have windows no it in the first place?
[23:20] <gamemakingdude> I get this when i try to connect to my ftp "Status:	Connection attempt failed with "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server". "
[23:20] <ikonia> anonymousinuk: please stop asking - contact microsoft, they will give you media if you have a valid license
[23:20] <erpo> zykotick9: Thanks. :)
[23:20] <danileigh79> ikonia: You're right, why am I even bothering with windows lmao
[23:20] <Dr_willis> XP Ewww.
[23:20] <anonymousinuk> thnx ikona
[23:21] <gordon1234> Layne89, Yep, ActionParsnip s link should help you out
[23:21] <zykotick9> anonymousinuk: if it's a OEM copy, contact you computer manufacturer, not microsoft
[23:21] <danileigh79> Dr_willis: It's hella better than Vista or 7 lol now
[23:21] <rdz11> hi, my flash plugin doesn't work after the latest update, can anybody help?
[23:21] <anonymousinuk> so ubunto will retrict what iso i can burn?
[23:21] <StevenXL> !vnc
[23:21] <gamemakingdude> !ftp
[23:21] <Dr_willis> anonymousinuk,  an iso is an iso.. shouldent matter.
[23:21] <ActionParsnip> anonymousinuk: its Ubuntu, not ubunto
[23:22] <anonymousinuk> zykotick OEM? this is
[23:22] <gamemakingdude> Status:	Connection attempt failed with "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server".  I get this error when i try to connect to my ftp.
[23:22] <danileigh79> anonymousinuk: no, we just won't help you because we don't know if you're being truthful or not
[23:22] <zykotick9> anonymousinuk: dell/compaq/hp/etc.
[23:22] <anonymousinuk> dell
[23:22] <ikonia> anonymousinuk: contact microsoft UK, they will guide you through the process, even if it's OEM
[23:22] <anonymousinuk> its secound hand pc
[23:22] <zykotick9> anonymousinuk: contact dell, and you can order a cd/dvd
[23:23] <Dr_willis> time to route this to #windows channel i think. :)
[23:23] <anonymousinuk> ok ill do that
[23:23] <ikonia> yes
[23:23] <Layne89> gordon1234: I have to install virtual machine and install Windows on it to easy access to files, shared on Windows-runned host? I'll try. Sorry for noob questions and explanations, and Thanks You, guys. Good Luck!
[23:23] <ikonia> ywas
[23:23] <gamemakingdude> Why am i getting the feeling i'm kinda being ignored.
[23:23] <anonymousinuk> so ubuntu restrict the media that can be burned to cd?
[23:23] <ikonia> anonymousinuk: no, it doesn't
[23:24] <ActionParsnip> gamemakingdude: no matter how many times you repeat, if nobody knows, nobody will reply
[23:24] <anonymousinuk> yea it does i cant burn my xp iso!
[23:24] <danileigh79> does anybody know which repository I have to add to install VNC? It's not showing up in USC or Synaptic...
[23:24] <ikonia> anonymousinuk: that is probably because the torrent image is bad
[23:24] <ActionParsnip> gamemakingdude: do you want 1450 users to reply??
[23:24] <ikonia> anonymousinuk: contact microsoft and get a known good media source from them
[23:24] <gamemakingdude> danileight use console for tightvncserver
[23:24] <Dr_willis> danileigh79,  theres several vnc servers in the repos.
[23:24] <anonymousinuk> oh i see
[23:24] <ActionParsnip> danileigh79: its vinagre you need
[23:24] <Layne89> ActionParsnip: Thanks!
[23:24] <danileigh79> Dr_willis: recommendation for best6?
[23:25] <rdz11> Am I the only person having trouble with the Adobe Flash Player plugin after the latest update in Ubuntu?
[23:25] <ActionParsnip> danileigh79: vino is in a default install as far as I know
[23:25] <Jordan_U> danileigh79: vinagre is a VNC client and server, which IIRC comes installed in Ubuntu by default.
[23:25] <Dr_willis> danileigh79,  totally depends on what you are doing with the vnc session.
[23:25] <erpo> ActionParsnip: Did they ever fix vinagre so it isn't dead dog slow?
[23:25] <anonymousinuk> thnx ikonia / actionparsnip
[23:25] <gordon1234> Layne89, what is currently running on the PC? You should be able to connect if it is running Windows 7 as a host. No need to install VirtualBox unless you want to run miltiple OS's on the box.
[23:25] <Dr_willis> vinagre/vini shares the current desktop. Tightvnc for example.. does not.
[23:25] <danileigh79> Dr_willis: Just wanna control lappy from android phone
[23:25] <anonymousinuk> that was stressful
[23:25] <gamemakingdude> Well, I have apache and vsftpd isn't working for me for some reason
[23:25] <Dr_willis> danileigh79,  i use ssh from my phone. :)
[23:25] <ActionParsnip> rdz11: can you give a pastebin of the output of:  lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark'
[23:25] <gamemakingdude> can't set up an account
[23:26] <ActionParsnip> erpo: never used it. VNC is horrible
[23:26] <Layne89> Currently runned Ubuntu 11.10 x86-64
[23:26] <Dr_willis> danileigh79,  theres also splashtop, and teamviewer. :)
[23:26] <ActionParsnip> rdz11: use http://pastie.org    or similar
[23:27] <xsl> guys even tough i made grub verbose, at boot the last thing i see is "running /scripts/init-bottom ..." and i can't see actual services starting up
[23:27] <danileigh79> Dr_willis: those two for phone or lappy or both?
[23:27] <Dr_willis> danileigh79,  all of the above. :)
[23:27] <zykotick9> xsl: you might want to try removing "quiet slash"
[23:27] <dat789> hi
[23:27] <dat789> i've got a Microsoft LifeCam
[23:28] <rdz11> ActionParsnip: hi... this is it:    http://paste.ubuntu.com/850689/
[23:28] <dat789> it doesn't seem to work
[23:28] <ActionParsnip> dat789: does it work in cheese?
[23:28] <dat789> can any body help?
[23:28] <Dr_willis> !webcam | dat789
[23:28] <dat789> nope
[23:28] <Dr_willis> its possible its not supported at all.
[23:28] <xsl> zykotick9: i did, thats why i can see it verbose, and i watch kernel boot up - but after the "running /scripts/init-bottom ..." i dont see anything else . but wen i do shutdown .. i see them all ... could plymouth be broken?
[23:28] <ActionParsnip> dat789: then run:   lsusb   then use the 8 character hex id to find guides
[23:28] <OU818> !fap
[23:29] <dat789> lsusb at the terminal ?
[23:29] <zykotick9> xsl: not sure.  good luck.
[23:29] <ActionParsnip> rdz11: sudo apt-get --purge remove browser-plugin-gnash flashplugin-installer gnash gnash-common
[23:29] <OU818> !nasty-narcoleptic
[23:29] <xsl> zykotick9: :) thx for trying
[23:29] <ActionParsnip> rdz11: then enable the partner repo and install adobe-installer    it will give 64bit flash to match your 64bit OS
[23:30] <rdz11> ActionParsnip: thanks! I'll try that
[23:30] <Layne89> gordon1234: Currently runned Ubuntu 11.10 x86-64. I connected by openvpn to corporative network. I actually don't know how all it works, but I want to mount host <IP_ADDRESS>. I don't know what OS is runned on that host. I think that is Debian, which installed on Vmware on Windows 7 Corporate Edition
[23:31] <dat789> ok, I'm here --> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCamerasMicrosoft
[23:31] <dat789> my cam is the first one
[23:31] <dat789> LifeCam cinema... what's next ?
[23:32] <Layne89> gordon1234: Stop, i'm fool. On that host Debian, because I can connect by SSH to this host
[23:32] <Dr_willis> install/run cheese from a terminal, look for error messages perhaps dat789
[23:32] <dat789> i've got cheese
[23:32] <NyLes> hi, do i really need to have a swap area?
[23:32] <dat789> but how to run it from terminal ? pls... forgive my noobiness
[23:32] <Dr_willis> NyLes,  a swap partition is very reccomended.
[23:33] <xsl> is Apparmor really needed ?
[23:33] <kawarshy> hi, how to change ubuntu 11.10 interface  language to arabic, because the login screen dose not have that option!
[23:33] <Dr_willis> NyLes,  if you ever want to use hibernate - its also  required.
[23:33] <OerHeks> dat789, open dash and type cheese
[23:33] <Dr_willis> !apparmor
[23:33] <NyLes> Dr_wilis ow, thanks, what is your recommended size for it?
[23:33] <xsl> s/apparmor/apport
[23:34] <dat789> cheese opened.
[23:34] <dat789> just a blank black screen
[23:34] <rebe> I have swap file, not partition
[23:34] <rebe> less trouble
[23:34] <gordon1234> Layne89, so on the basis that you are trying to mount a drive on a Windows 7 guest OS, under a Linux host OS, the previous link should help you out.
[23:34] <gamemakingdude> Anyone know why i get this error "htpasswd: cannot create file /etc/vsftpd/passwd "
[23:34] <dat789> can't see error or anything anywhere
[23:34] <ikonia> gamemakingdude permissions ?
[23:34] <ikonia> gamemakingdude: path doesn't exist ?
[23:34] <ikonia> gamemakingdude: work it out
[23:34] <adominguezc> i need the software UPS Tuner of MGE (Merlin Gerin) anyone calp me?? is very urgent
[23:34] <fire3> gamemakingdude: use sudo ?
[23:35] <ikonia> adominguezc: is that software available on linux ?
[23:35] <OerHeks> dat789, keep cheese open, unplug & plug your usb cam again.
[23:35] <gamemakingdude> it wont work with sudo
[23:35] <ActionParsnip> dat789: i thought you said it didn't work in cheese:
[23:35] <NyLes> how can i calculate the rght swap area for me?
[23:35] <ActionParsnip> NyLes: how much ram do you have?
[23:35] <adominguezc> ikonia: i don't know
[23:35] <ikonia> adominguezc: then ask the vendor if they make a linux version
[23:35] <Layne89> gordon1234: Thanks, I'll try. Good luck!
[23:35] <NyLes> ActionParsnip i have 512RAM?
[23:35] <dat789> well, cheese is not showing anything
[23:35] <adominguezc> MGE is now Schlinder
[23:35] <Dr_willis> NyLes,  id suggest a gb+ or more... for such a low ram system.
[23:35] <dat789> ActionParsnip: Cheese is not showing anything. no picture.
[23:35] <gamemakingdude> Hmm
[23:36] <gamemakingdude> Theres no vsftpd file
[23:36] <Dr_willis> NyLes,  definatly look into expanding your ram more if you can find some cheap.
[23:36] <ActionParsnip> NyLes: then about 1200Mb will be enough (Double RAM plus a little bit)
[23:36] <ikonia> gamemakingdude: they you go then
[23:36] <ikonia> gamemakingdude: /etc/vsftpd is a directory not a file
[23:36] <rdz11> ActionParsnip: thank you very much that worked perfectly fine!!!! :D
[23:36] <ActionParsnip> dat789: what is the identifying line in lsusb?
[23:36] <NyLes> Dr_willis, ActionParsnip, thanks for both of you ^^
[23:36] <zykotick9> NyLes: are you installing regular Ubuntu?  that's only 1/2 the recommended RAM.
[23:36] <ActionParsnip> rdz11: I'm good with flash stuffs :)
[23:36] <gamemakingdude> Shouldn't it create one
[23:36] <gamemakingdude> ?
[23:37] <ikonia> gamemakingdude: it can't - that's the error, it wants to create one in /etc/vsftpd, but can't
[23:37] <dat789> ActionParsnip: Bus 002 Device 010: ID 045e:075d Microsoft Corp. LifeCam Cinema
[23:37] <NyLes> zykotick9 yeah, im installing 10.04? should i install lubuntu instead?
[23:37] <ikonia> gamemakingdude: you have to work out why, probably permissions are wrong
[23:37] <ActionParsnip> dat789: and the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[23:37] <gamemakingdude> I mean when i installed vsftpd shouldn't it had installed that directory?
[23:37] <zykotick9> NyLes: with 10.04 it might be ok.
[23:37] <ikonia> gamemakingdude: what ???
[23:37] <rdz11> ActionParsnip: I see :D ... I had 3 days with this bug ... thank you again :D
[23:37] <ikonia> gamemakingdude: re-read the error,
[23:38] <dat789> ActionParsnip: precise
[23:38] <NyLes> zykotick9 thanks for the info, im trying to install it now i hope it works fine..
[23:38] <zykotick9> NyLes: IF not, then try lubuntu
[23:38] <ActionParsnip> dat789: ask in #ubuntu+1   you are using pre-release which isn't supported here until it is released
[23:38] <dat789> OerHeks: unplugged, and plugged back in. nothing happens in Cheese
[23:38] <dat789> hmm...
[23:39] <dat789> what do i ask there?
[23:39] <dat789> same as i have here?
[23:39] <ActionParsnip> dat789: the same question, your release is offtopic here
[23:39] <NyLes> zykotick9: yes i would,  reall need to familiarize myself with linux now..
[23:40] <NyLes> what is the file system for ubuntu? sorry this is my first time..
[23:40] <OerHeks> dat789, all i find is a bugreport for 11.10 as well https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cheese/+bug/930671
[23:40] <zykotick9> NyLes: ext3 for lucid i believe
[23:41] <dat789> OerHeks: I've also got guvcview installed
[23:41] <ActionParsnip> OerHeks: its precise so will be probably fraught with issues
[23:42] <dat789> OerHeks: How do I use guvcview?
[23:42] <ActionParsnip> dat789: your release is offtopic here, please go to #ubuntu+1
[23:42] <dat789> OerHeks: the url you sent says guvcview works with LifeCam Cinema ...
[23:42] <NyLes> zykotick9: thanks again..
[23:42] <dat789> uhh...
[23:43] <dat789> ok. but no response there :(
[23:43] <ActionParsnip> dat789: irrelevant
[23:43] <zykotick9> dat789: you probably shouldn't be running +1
[23:43] <ActionParsnip> dat789: the latest release supported here is Oneiric.
[23:43] <OerHeks> dat789, ubuntu+1 is the place to be.
[23:43] <gamemakingdude> Argh this FTP is annoying me!
[23:44] <ActionParsnip> dat789: I suggest you reinstall and use Oneiric
[23:44] <OerHeks> dat789, all i confirm is that the issue is noticed in 11.10 as well
[23:45] <zykotick9> gamemakingdude: good time to see http://mywiki.wooledge.org/FtpMustDie then ;)
[23:46] <dat789> Oneiric, eh?
[23:46] <Kaapa> any powertop users? How can I find the causes for high hrtimer_wakeup s?
[23:47] <danileigh79> how do I find my external ip address?
[23:47] <dat789> dash --> guvcview. didn't start. :( what's wrong ...? /me sobs
[23:47]  * dat789 sobs
[23:47] <OerHeks> danileigh79, www.whatismyip.com
[23:47] <zykotick9> danileigh79: visit www.whatsmyip.org
[23:47] <danileigh79> zykotick9: thanks
[23:48] <NyLes> im creating my swap partition now, file system is linux-swap right? then what about the create as? primary or logical? or extended?
[23:48] <OerHeks> danileigh79, our dutch version, shows you a lot more about your browser * plugins  > http://www.watismijnip.nl/
[23:49] <dat789> ok. how to check which version of Ubuntu I'm currently running?
[23:49] <ActionParsnip> danileigh79: IP=`wget -q -O - http://ip.keithscode.com`; echo $IP
[23:49] <zykotick9> dat789: "lsb_release -a"
[23:49] <NyLes> im creating my swap partition now, file system is linux-swap right? then what about the create as? primary or logical? or extended?
[23:49] <zykotick9> NyLes: you can have a maximum or 4 primary paritions, is that a factor?
[23:49] <dat789> yup
[23:49] <dat789> 12.04 apparently
[23:49] <zykotick9> NyLes: yes, swap = linux-swap
