[00:01] <nickie> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351   i'm looking at this thread, and the value i get for 'find /boot/grub/stage1' = (hd0,1). i typed 'root (hd0,1)' and then 'setup (hd0)'. this will find my windows partition as well?
[00:02] <jazz> Jordan_U,  so then how do i boot to the drive my new ubuntu is on?
[00:02] <Magnesium> !ops |Zippo|
[00:02] <Jordan_U> nickie, It will use the same menu.list file, so if the partition number for windows hasn't changed the menu should work just as before.
[00:02] <kelopez> halp!
[00:03] <jazz> Jordan_U,  thats what im after...if i unplugg my other 2  drives grub  wont see them
[00:03] <CShadowRun> !ops | |Zippo|
[00:03] <kelopez> well
[00:03] <Magnesium> !ops
[00:03] <naut> Magnesium: already been dealt with
[00:04] <kelopez> how do I create a swap partition after I installed [K]Ubuntu?
[00:04] <Magnesium> naut: He's still joining and quitting repeatedly
[00:04] <Magnesium> naut: kinda annoying
[00:04] <Jordan_U> jazz, So you want the entries for the other install to not go away again after you run update-grub? If not then I don't understand your queston.
[00:04] <kelopez> !help
[00:04] <kelopez> how do I create a swap partition after I installed [K]Ubuntu?
[00:04] <Gorash> howdy people!! I need a quick help. I am going absolutely nuts here! I have a Logitech Optical keyboard and my qoutes show up like this: ¨¨ ¨¨". I have tried 150*50^5
[00:05] <Jordan_U> jazz, That is, after you run update-grub without the other drive plugged in
[00:05] <Gorash> settings.... any knows how to solve?
[00:05] <Magnesium> nvm, y'all must have kicked him already
[00:05] <naut> kelopez: you could use gparted to create the swap partition, and then edit fstab to mount it as swap on boot.
[00:05] <phazer11> grub doesn't see my Arch Linux partitions
[00:05] <nickie> phew! i was really stressed there for a minute......
[00:05] <kelopez> ok naut, thank you :)
[00:06] <naut> kelopez: doing it this way is not easy for a newbie, but you can learn a lot. this might be helpful in editing the fstab file: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fstab
[00:07] <kelopez> naut: well, I'm not a newble :P
[00:07] <naut> ok :)
[00:07] <kelopez> s/ble/bie
[00:07] <jazz> Jordan_U,  i think i get you. now
[00:07] <kelopez> btw, I'm using the amd64 version ;)

[00:11] <lsdluna> hi, I think I have installed subversion successfully, however when I use http://<IP_ADDRESS>/svn/project I received Revision 0: / ?
[00:11] <Guest56435> hello :D
[00:11] <kelopez> hallo Guest56435
[00:12] <Guest56435> :O
[00:12] <lsdluna> LinuxReign: are you still here? I have completed that tutorial
[00:12] <Guest56435> room nay dong ghe =))
[00:12] <KaOSoFt> Hello.
[00:12] <aMo_LuCk> hi
[00:12] <LinuxReign> i'm here, but @ the office, please gimme a moment
[00:13] <KaOSoFt> Do you happen to know what's the default root password of Ubuntu MySQL installation? I installed it through the package manager (Synaptic).
[00:14] <dfgh> Dual booting with win7 on a brand new laptop, and cpu temp is around 44 degrees C on win and 59 on ubuntu (115 fahr vs 138 fahr). Why is it so much higher on ubuntu?
[00:14] <KaOSoFt> I tried root, ubuntu, "empty", to no avail.
[00:14] <kitche> KaOSoFt have to make one
[00:14] <KaOSoFt> Oh.
[00:15] <jrib> KaOSoFt: it should tell you that when you install it on recent ubuntu versions
[00:17] <KaOSoFt> When is it supposed to tell me? I didn't see any advice. Let me check the Synaptic description.
[00:17] <jrib> KaOSoFt: it uses debconf.  What version of ubuntu is this?
[00:17] <KaOSoFt> 9.10
[00:18] <jrib> KaOSoFt: hrmm, maybe it only works in a terminal, I haven't used synaptic in a long time
[00:18] <KaOSoFt> Yeah, it must be.
[00:18] <KaOSoFt> I didn't really scroll up during installation, so I have no clue what commands did it run.
[00:18] <KaOSoFt> :s
[00:23] <sysdoc> I have had 9.10 installed for some time now through distro upgrades. Have a new and larger drive that I'd like to install 9.10 to but the installer hangs. This is on a Dell Vostro 200. Anyoone have a suggestion on how to get the install to work?
[00:24] <phazer11> HEy what is the program that Arch Uses for it's Remote Desktop
[00:24] <jrib> !verify | sysdoc
[00:24] <jrib> sysdoc: erm, did you run "check the cd for defects"?
[00:24] <Crash21081> How do I turn on my wireless 3G modem?  It's a software switch.
[00:24] <sysdoc> jrib yea I did
[00:25] <KaOSoFt> jrib- I read this nice article: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/recover-mysql-root-password.html
[00:25] <jrib> sysdoc: the live environment loads fine?
[00:25] <KaOSoFt> :D
[00:25] <sysdoc> jrib, no it won't load either
[00:25] <jrib> sysdoc: the only difference can't be the hard drive right?
[00:26] <jrib> KaOSoFt: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#Set%20mysql%20root%20password
[00:26] <jrib> KaOSoFt: you don't have to reset it since you never set it
[00:26] <sysdoc> jrib, I have checked the image, burnt many CD's and checked the CD's after, and all the tweaks that are available from the installer, and they all hang
[00:27] <jrib> sysdoc: you installed without issue on the same system with a different hard drive?
[00:28] <sysdoc> jrib, no the HD is already in the sys too, just have fedora on that disk that I'd like to format to the ext4 fs and install ubuntu to that drive
[00:28] <Kismet> hey guys i get the message "enter password for default keyring to unlock" form account manager every time my laptop resumes from hibernation
[00:28] <Aijse> sysdoc, and fedora still runs?
[00:28] <sysdoc> jrib, in essence moving my existing ubuntu install to the larger HD
[00:28] <jrib> sysdoc: I'd say just try the alternat cd
[00:28] <sysdoc> FC runs great Aijse
[00:29] <Kismet> how do i avoid that it pops up
[00:29] <celthunder> kismet disable the keyring
[00:29] <sysdoc> jrib, ah forgot about the alt cd
[00:29] <sysdoc> Will give that a try
[00:30] <Aijse> sysdoc, u sure cabling to the cd is ok?
[00:30] <Kismet> celthunder, how can i do that
[00:30] <unop> Kismet, is your keyring password the same as your login password?
[00:30] <Kismet> unop, i think so,.. i just have one i guess
[00:31] <sysdoc> One other thing... I have the /home on a separate partition on drive sdb can the installer still copy the existing home to the new drive and mount it?
[00:32] <sysdoc> Aijse, yea all is fine there too tried an external CD too...
[00:35] <skierkyle> Quick question... to start, Im a complete noob with with raid.. But I have setup a software raid 1 on  a new server install,  and what im wondering is if I mount an external hard drive, will it be synced to the other raid drive.
[00:36] <skierkyle> The raid is all of /
[00:36] <anon> hey guys..i am about to dump windows from my internal laptop drive and was wandering if I could just migrate my ubuntu over to my internal from my external HD..so i dont have to download anything all over again
[00:37] <anon> is there a way to do that or not?
[00:37] <simmaster> @skierkyle Well, if you copy from the external hard drive to the software RAID, it should sync between the RAID partitions
[00:37] <LasBuntu> where do I put an alias for root?
[00:37] <Jordan_U> skierkyle, No, mountpoints are just a path you can use to access another filesystem, mounting a filesystem to a mountpoint in / does not copy anything to the actual disk that / is mounted from
[00:38] <LasBuntu> I want to make sure I don't do something stupid like run irc as root :)
[00:38] <johntramp> hi i am after an app to draw a quick graph,  is there anything easy to use for this
[00:38] <Jordan_U> LasBuntu, The easiest way to do that is to never start a root shell
[00:38] <jrib> johntramp: what kind of graph?
[00:38] <skierkyle> simmaster: Ok, so if I just mount the drive in /media/whatever it wont sync between the internal RAID  drives?
[00:39] <LasBuntu> Jordan_U: true, but that's a bad habit I have not yet broken :)
[00:39] <Xqtftqx_> Hi does anybody know about sun-java6 in 10.04?
[00:39] <johntramp> jrib: plot points, fit a curve
[00:39] <simmaster> @skierkyle No
[00:39] <skierkyle> simmaster: Great thanks for the answer
[00:39] <simmaster> @anon You'd need to set up Syslinux on the external hard drive, copy the setup files, configure Syslinux and boot from there
[00:40] <jrib> johntramp: gnuplot, R, sage, octave, scilab, maxima...
[00:41] <anon> thanks..i will look into it..
[00:41] <Jordan_U> simmaster, Why would you use syslinux?
[00:41] <nad_> i need help getting ati graphic card drivers working
[00:42] <nad_> am i in the right place?
[00:42] <Jordan_U> simmaster, syslinux only works with fat32
[00:42] <simmaster> @Jordan_U: I'm thinking flash drives
[00:42] <johntramp> cool, thanks jrib
[00:43] <Jordan_U> anon, Did you use the standard Ubuntu installer to install to the external drive?
[00:43] <kgs> I need to transfer a large amount of files between two ubuntu computers on my network. What is the best way to do this?
[00:43] <juan__> hi guys... I just updated my laptop with ubuntu 9.10, and it still keeps the old kernel.... how can I change it to the now one
[00:43] <jsec> nad_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[00:43] <jrib> kgs: how large is "large"?
[00:43] <kgs> I tried to sftp into the machine, but put and get don't seem to allow the -R switch
[00:43] <kgs> jrib: About 40 GB
[00:43] <nad_> i followed the binary driver howto but i get unresolved issues
[00:43] <Jordan_U> juan__, Did you upgrade from grub legacy to grub2?
[00:44] <mikeconcepts>  trying to think of a way to use clonezilla on a netbook thumb drive using wireless network
[00:44] <jsec> nad_, what unresolved issues?
[00:44] <juan__> uname -r  (2.6.31-14-generic)
[00:44] <Kismet> hey guys... my automounting with ubuntu 9.10 dose not work anymore
[00:44] <Kismet> why?
[00:44] <anon> Jordan_U,  yes
[00:44] <Aijse> kismet ... automounting of waht?
[00:45] <Kismet> Aijse, usb drives which i plug in my usb port
[00:45] <juan__> Jordan I just installed grub2, and i see no changes
[00:45] <jrib> kgs: ssh is probably the easiest way, no idea on speed.  I guess your other options are mainly samba and nfs
[00:45] <nad_> unresolvable referance to symbol XauFileName
[00:45] <mikeconcepts> is there a distro that has wireless and clonezilla?
[00:45] <johntramp> wow all these websites for graphing apps don't look to be updated since the '90s
[00:45] <kgs> jrib: I tried to set up a shared file on one of the computers, but it fails. Something filepard or something...
[00:46] <Jordan_U> anon, Is the external drive larger or smaller than the internal?
[00:46] <kgs> I don't remember the exact error.
[00:46] <mikeconcepts> could clonezilla be installed on a ubuntu live usb?
[00:46] <jrib> kgs: hard for anyone to help if that's the case
[00:46] <anon> smaller...40g external 160g internal.
[00:46] <kgs> Hah.. true..
[00:46] <tessarakt2> damn
[00:46] <anon> Jordan_U,  smaller...40g external 160g internal.
[00:47] <tessarakt2> I'm too stupid for the alternate installer
[00:47] <nad_> jsec, unresolvable referance to XauFileName
[00:48] <jsec> nad_, ok, give me a moment here
[00:48] <nad_> jsec, Then a bunch of warnings, and it wont build the pkgs i need for the 64bit
[00:48] <Jordan_U> anon, I would boot into an Ubuntu LiveCD, use gparted to copy your Ubuntu partition to your internal drive, then re-install grub following these instructions: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide
[00:49] <jsec> nad_, which version of the ati driver are you trying to install?
[00:49] <Jordan_U> anon, Assuming that you don't have too much data on the external drive's filesystem for gparted to resize it to fit in the internal.
[00:49] <anon> Jordan_U,  ill check it out. im a linux newby but windows sucks so i wanna dump it and move to linux
[00:50] <sysdoc> anon, woot!
[00:50] <anon> Jordan_U,  i still have 27g left on a 40g drive and like 6g are movies
[00:50] <behappy> I have detached a screen by CTRL + A + D how to retrurn to this detached screen ?
[00:50] <nad_> jsec, the 64 bit, ati-driver-installer-10-1-x86.x86_64.run
[00:50] <jrib> behappy: screen -r
[00:50] <nad_> jsec, i got thru the howto
[00:51] <jsec> nad_, ok
[00:51] <tessarakt2> "If you get "Incorrect CD-ROM detected" error on detection stage, reboot, press F6 and then ESC to go to manual boot line editing, and add the option 'cdrom-detect/try-usb=true'. "
[00:51] <Jordan_U> behappy, screen -x
[00:51] <tessarakt2> works
[00:51] <nad_> jsec, when i use the admin hardware driver, i cant boot to desktop...
[00:51] <behappy> jrib: thank you ; what about when I have much screen ?
[00:51] <jrib> behappy: screen -ls to show them then specify which one you want to screen -r
[00:51] <Jordan_U> behappy, Didn't see that jrib had already answered, both -x and -r should work
[00:51] <nad_> jsec, had to swing my way thru newbie hell...
[00:52] <jsec> >_<
[00:52] <jsec> nad_, what kind of card do you have?
[00:52] <behappy> Jordan_U: thanks
[00:52] <Blue112> Hello.

[00:53] <Blue112> I have trouble opening alsa-mixer, I can't configure my sound anymore... What can I do ?
[00:53] <nad_> jsec,i can tell you if you tell me how to find it...

[00:53] <anon> but for now i have a poker tourney to play in...
[00:54] <Aijse> nad_, in terminal lspci|grep VGA
[00:54] <Jordan_U> anon, The Ubuntu installer also has a migration assistant, it won't get installed apps and such but it should grab settings and documents IIRC
[00:54] <jazz> Jordan_U,  hello again. i know i installed the os on the drive but when i boot up to the drive only i get a boot disk failure insert system disk and press enter. is there something wrong that i did?
[00:54] <BluesKaj> Blue112, make sure you have alsa-utils and alsa-base installed
[00:55] <anon> Jordan_U, ill probably just use that then. thanks man.
[00:55] <Jordan_U> anon, np
[00:55] <jsec> nad_, for that sort of thing i use sysinfo
[00:55] <nad_> jsec, ati rv 710, Radeon hd 4550
[00:55] <anon> Jordan_U, if i use the migration assistant and AptonCD i should be able to get all it over right?
[00:56] <Kismet> hey guys... my automounting with ubuntu 9.10 dose not work anymore
[00:56] <jazz> is there a way to change tab "or rooms" with the keyboard? im using the mouse right now on xchat
[00:56] <Blue112> BluesKaj, alsa-utils wasn't installed, now it's done but alsamixer doesn't want to start up anyway.
[00:57] <jsec> nad_, i'm assuming you're running karmic?
[00:58] <nad_> jsec, yeah, it works ok till i install the prop. drivers, then wont boot to desktop, goes blank...
[00:58] <Kismet> hey anyone can help me... my ubuntu dosen't recognise usb drives which are plugged in any more
[00:58] <jsec> nad_, yeah ati support, in my experience at least, is absolute junk
[00:59] <Aijse> nad_, where have u installed drivers from? from their own site?
[01:00] <nad_> aijse, i followed instructions in the forums for finding and useins prop. drivers
[01:00] <Berzerker> where's the channel for support for lucid?
[01:00] <Aijse> nad_ I suggest you go to amd.com
[01:00] <jrib> !lucid | Berzerker
[01:00] <Berzerker> ah thanks
[01:01] <Aijse> nad_ download driver that suits your card and run the automated package
[01:01] <mcurran> You know who's a queer?  Archangel Amael at remote-exploit.  So spread the word if any gerbil jammers want to go rub one out in his bum.
[01:02] <nad_> aijse, i did, i downloaded the .run file and when i tried to make the pkgs i get these failures and unresolvable refferances

[01:03] <anon> haha
[01:03] <Gorash> My keyboards qoutes > ¨ are wrong. I tried everything to fix this (changed keyboard, language) Can anyone help me?
[01:03] <UbuntuHelp1> For proftpd is there a way to change the default data port rather then just the connection port?  If I've set a custom connect port does it still try to use port 20 for data or does it switch to passive and does a random range of ports?
[01:04] <anon> Gorash,  switch the buttons on your keyboard
[01:04] <jsec> nad, did you go here? http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=<IP_ADDRESS>.39&lang=English
[01:05] <Aijse> nad_, did you d-load the installer than cd to the dowload directory, and than ran sh ati*?
[01:05] <Gorash> @anon how mean!? You are not making fun of me right? :P
[01:05] <anon> Gorash, not really, it was just an idea.
[01:05] <nad_> aijse, yes
[01:05] <Gorash> these are the qoutes I get when I press shift + qoute key: ¨    and these I need: "
[01:06] <HaD3z> Hello all, new here and just wanted to say that.  Just here to learn some tips from you guys
[01:06] <Aijse> nad_ And than exactly what error did you get?
[01:06] <nad_> aijse, i dload a .run file
[01:07] <Lucider> hello , will installing both gnome and kde on ubuntu slow down my laptop or it wont be affected and each will work independently
[01:07] <Lucider> does installing more than one DE destroy my system ?????????????????/
[01:07] <Lucider> or its OK
[01:08] <Blue112> When I try to load alsamixer I get this error message : cannot load mixer controls: Invalid argument ; What can I do ?
[01:08] <nad_> aijse, i got a list of warnings, starting with unresolvable reference to symbol XauFileName
[01:08] <Blue112> Lucider, there's no problem about having both.
[01:09] <nad_> aijse followed by libXv$$$$ found in no libraries
[01:09] <Blue112> :/
[01:10] <Lucider> Blue112, I am thinking of switching from gnome to kde but i never used it and i don't want to redownload 700 mb again ... is kubuntu better or as they say is not good and stick with ubuntu
[01:10] <Blue112> !best | Lucider
[01:10] <tessarakt2> it's the same
[01:10] <tessarakt2> it's just a selection of packages for installation
[01:10] <Absolute0> will this wireless card work out of the box? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833156054
[01:10] <tessarakt2> you can install KDE on Ubuntu afterwards
[01:10] <tessarakt2> without reinstalling the system
[01:10] <almark1> hello I need to setup my monitor to fit the screen, its running in 1024x768 and that is fine but when I switch back to XP with dual boot I have to readjust it due to its vert and horiz in that OS, how can I set this from a Ubuntu Disto or command line or program?
[01:11] <happyface> is there a good info website on the linux/unix structure (the filesystem, commands, pipes, time, etc)?
[01:11] <Lucider> I feel familiar to gnome but i see kde screenshots and get tempted to try it :)
[01:11] <Merther> When changing the default port in proftpd does it still use port 20 for data transfer or does it use passive and use random ports in a range?  Is there a way to modify the data port being used if the connection port is different?
[01:11] <nad_> aijse followed by libXv$$$$ found in no libraries
[01:11] <Lucider> ok It wont be a distaster I will try it at the week before lucid release so I install lucid if something get wrong any way
[01:12] <Lucider> many thanks\
[01:12] <almark1> I want to adjust the screen though linux that way I can make it where I don't have to do it anymore between rebooting from OS to OS
[01:12] <TieDyeSmilez> i have a question if any offical ubuntu devs are on
[01:12] <bshotts> happyface: try linuxcommand.org
[01:12] <TieDyeSmilez> there are people on ebay selling copies of ubuntu
[01:12] <Tabmow> Merther: http://www.proftpd.org/docs/directives/linked/config_ref_PassivePorts.html
[01:12] <TieDyeSmilez> thats illegal correct?
[01:12] <Aijse> nad_, googling for those lines comes up with similar probslems and forum posts. some people clim to have found fixes by d-loading certain packages
[01:12] <TieDyeSmilez> ticks me off due to it defeats the purpose of freeware
[01:13] <happyface> thanks bshotts i'll check it out
[01:13] <bshotts> happyface: welcome
[01:13] <almark1> Is there a way to do this adjust the screen from linux and not have to use the monitor front panel, I am using a CRT
[01:13] <jrib> TieDyeSmilez: it's not illegal
[01:13] <Aijse> nad_, for example: libqt4-gui, but not alot of confirmence
[01:13] <TieDyeSmilez> i know its freely to distribute
[01:14] <jrib> TieDyeSmilez: amazon sells ubuntu too, it's perfectly fine
[01:14] <TieDyeSmilez> but key word free
[01:14] <jrib> !free | TieDyeSmilez
[01:14] <TieDyeSmilez> damn its so wrong lol
[01:14] <Merther> Tabmow So basically just modify the passive port range and add it to the firewall/router.  I'll try that.  Thanks
[01:14] <jrib> TieDyeSmilez: free doesn't mean free in cost
[01:14] <maxtor> hi there, i've found my self a 4GB sd card, i want to download a ubuntu distro and install off the sd card to my harddrive as i have no cd drive to install off.  what exactly should i download, ive already downloaded linux i386 cd version, tryed to extract it to the sd card but the bios wont boot off that.
[01:14] <maxtor> any ideas?
[01:14] <TieDyeSmilez> yet when someone just downloads from the site and sells copies thats worng imo
[01:15] <Blue112> When I try to load alsamixer I get this error message : cannot load mixer controls: Invalid argument ; What can I do ?
[01:15] <jrib> TieDyeSmilez: why?  Maybe someone needs a cd for some reason and is willing to pay for it.  As long as the buyer is aware they can download free of cost themselves, I don't see what's wrong with it
[01:15] <mrpink57> maxtor: are you in windows now?
[01:16] <maxtor> mrpink, no linux :(
[01:16] <TieDyeSmilez> yet what if the buyer isnt aware its freely dis
[01:16] <maxtor> ubuntu 5.04
[01:16] <mrpink57> maxtor: I think you could just update your system to the latest
[01:16] <maxtor> need to get newer system running
[01:16] <TieDyeSmilez> i dunno i just wanted to check tho thank you for your time
[01:16] <maxtor> mrpink57, ive been told id have to update it loads of times to get it to the supported version?

[01:19] <mrpink57> maxtor: you can check out the dd if option
[01:19] <jrib> !pt | fattux
[01:19] <maxtor> mrpink, i dont understand what you mean sorry
[01:20] <mrpink57> maxtor: dd reads and writes data by blocks, if you have internet I would suggest googling on a how to.
[01:21] <nad_> aijse, i googled a unch, i tried all i could find that looked promising, but i have re-installed 3x tring different things, finally found a way to boot to desktop without reinstalling, but want to get it working, i hate windows and dont have quite enough patience to learn a bunch of command lines, lol
[01:21] <harisund> For how long will 9.04 be considered significant? As in receive updates or whatever .. or is it obsolete already?
[01:22] <jrib> harisund: 18 months after releases
[01:22] <harisund> jrib, ah. Good to know. Thank you :)
[01:22] <nad_> aijse, is there a way to revert the graphic driver easily that will help my trial and errors?
[01:22] <jrib> harisund: I still have 9.04 on my laptop, I'll upgrade to lucid when it's released and then not worry for 3 years
[01:23] <harisund> jrib Sounds good man. I have 9.04 too, and I like it way more than 9.10
[01:23] <Aijse> nad_ not realy im afraid
[01:25] <rob0917> does linux mint have loco's ?

[01:27] <nad_> aijse, is there a "safe" mode? i saw the refferences to alt+f# to switch between graphic screens, but after a few seconds i loose all ability to do anything, how do i interupt the booting process to buy time/
[01:27] <palanthas> Having trouble with 'Frets on Fire'. I changed the screen size and now it won't show anything when starting the game. Is there a file I can edit to reset the screen size?
[01:28] <Aijse> nad_ there is a safe mode, but I have the feeling the driver just doesnt support your card at this moment
[01:29] <Aijse> nad_ you could use the open source driver while you keep an eye on forumposts
[01:30] <fxhp> I having trouble getting my computer to talk to my reciever.  Attempting to use Digital Coax SPDIF.
[01:31] <end> I have installed the # For Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic users:
[01:31] <end> sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-karmic but my atheros card is still not recognized. I think I need to edit some files to prevent ath5 from being blacklisted, but when I try to edit files, ubuntu says I do not have sufficient permission. How do I do this and if I stop blacklisting ath5, will the card be recognized?
[01:31] <fxhp> Doesn't work on liveCD either
[01:31] <nad_> Aijse, how do i get to the safe mode? i looked at the ati ref. that the forums point to, and they say its supported, and that the newest one supports as well, however i want to try to get it working, and i get way badly stuck once i restart..
[01:32] <Aijse> nad_ If you reboot you can select with arrow keys boot safemode
[01:32] <nad_> aijse, sorry to lean on you so much, i am learning and want to experiment, but i have much to learn, if it was too easy i wouldnt be here...
[01:33] <Aijse> nad_ its part of the deal
[01:34] <nad_> aijse, thanks, so arrow keys will boot safe, why dont they tell us this with the hardware driver app. ? that would save so much frustration
[01:35] <end> quit
[01:35] <atx> hey guys
[01:35] <atx> want to launch an application through the command line, but want it to be independent
[01:36] <atx> so I can still continue using the command line after the application launches
[01:36] <Ten-Eight> atx: if you open another terminal window you can.
[01:36] <Aijse> atx: alt f2 won't do?
[01:37] <lsdluna> i seem to have accidentally removed the volume control on the panel - and i cant seem to add it back...how can i go about getting it back onto the panel? (seems the network connection alert has gone too)
[01:38] <Aijse> lsdluna, kind of depending what kind of pannel, but for me right click pannel -> add to panel -> select volume ap
[01:38] <atx> right click the panel and select "add to panel"
[01:39] <lsdluna> Aijse: the volume ap isnt in the list?
[01:39] <Ten-Eight> lsdluna: make sure you "lock" it to the panel after you add it back and have it where you want it.
[01:39] <Pici> lsdluna: Its called the notification area, it includes the volume and the network applets.
[01:39] <lsdluna> Pici:  thanks!

[01:44] <Hyperzid> Is there any issues when upgrading from eg. Ubuntu 8.04.3 to 8.04.4?
[01:44] <Hyperzid> ..or is it very safe to do on a production platform?
[01:44] <xangua> no
[01:44] <dbuebe> How do I turn on logging in a DHCP3 server?
[01:44] <xangua> yes
[01:45] <Empty_foo> depends on yer video card if you accelerate
[01:45] <Lars_G> Is there any howto out there for "easy" install of kde 4.4 final on 9.10?
[01:45] <ardchoille> Hyperzid: They're both sub versions of 8.04 LTS
[01:45] <dbuebe> Lars_G, Try "sudo apt-get install @kde-desktop
[01:45] <Lars_G> Specially if it includes help on enabling the new netbook UI.
[01:46] <ardchoille> You're good
[01:46] <Lars_G> dbuebe: it's pushed up already? wow
[01:46] <xangua> Lars_G: when was kde 4.4 final released¿
[01:46] <Lars_G> xangua: today
[01:46] <ardchoille> today
[01:46] <xangua> ooh, i suppose not
[01:46] <Lars_G> Including a site redesign and all
[01:46] <Lars_G> kde.org
[01:47] <studentz> Which is the command to prompt the password window ( is not"gksu"or "gksudo")? Thanks
[01:48] <shadowwulf> i have a sd card that partitioned with a ntfs and a ext3 system on it ...  i am trying to mount the ext3 side of it and copy files to it ... how do i do it ?
[01:48] <olympus> studentz: just use sudo
[01:48] <xangua> !sudo
[01:49] <mrpink57> shadowwulf: you will need to fdisk -l to see what the name is on your system, do a sudo
[01:49] <mrpink57> shadowwulf: so sudo fdisk -l
[01:49] <studentz> olympus: the script is for somebody who does not like terminal so prefers GUI Thanks
[01:49] <Hyperzid> ardchoille, ok ok.
[01:49] <shadowwulf> mrpink57, sdb6
[01:50] <Hyperzid> ardchoille, because in debian.. minor releases can have issues
[01:50] <Hyperzid> ops
[01:50] <Hyperzid> centos*
[01:50] <ardchoille> Hyperzid: This isn't debian ;)
[01:50] <mrpink57> shadowwulf: ok do so sudo mount /dev/sda6 /media/flash
[01:50] <ardchoille> And I've never seen many issues with LTS releases
[01:50] <mrpink57> shadowwulf: you may need to create the flash dir
[01:50] <epitaph> Anyone pretty confident about their knowledge of lirc and IR remotes in Ubuntu?
[01:50] <Hyperzid> ardchoille, I didt mean debian.. I meant centos.
[01:51] <ardchoille> Hyperzid: Ah, ok
[01:51] <shadowwulf> mrpink57, mount point /meia/flash does not exist
[01:52] <mrpink57> shadowwulf: do mkdir /media/flash
[01:52] <mrpink57> shadowwulf: it does not need to be that dir but I gave as an example really
[01:52] <firefly2442> I have a simple makefile to compile a C++ application and it works but it's not making the generated file executable, I tried changing the permissions but that's not working, any thoughts?
[01:53] <shadowwulf> mrpink57, now it says the sd6 does not exist
[01:53] <mrpink57> shadowwulf: probably have to add sudo
[01:54] <shadowwulf> mrpink57,  nope .. tired that
[01:54] <shadowwulf> mrpink57, tried that
[01:55] <shadowwulf> mrpink57, does it go by device or partition
[01:55] <olympus> shadowwulf: SD6 or should it be sdA6
[01:55] <chaines51> Ok, I have a question that isn't directly related to Ubuntu:
[01:55] <Kismet> hey anyone can help me... my ubuntu dosen't recognise usb drives which are plugged in any more
[01:55] <chaines51> I run the command find . -path 'xyz' -not -path 'abc'
[01:55] <chaines51> and it functions as I expect it to
[01:56] <chaines51> but if I put the -not -path 'abc' into a variable
[01:56] <chaines51> and run find . -path 'xyz' $VARIABLE
[01:56] <chaines51> it doesn't function correctly. Does anyone know why?
[01:57] <shadowwulf> mrpink57, if i reboot does all that go away ?
[01:57] <shadowwulf> cp --man
[01:57] <kelopez> finally :D
[01:58] <djuggler> if I want to use grep to find a pattern but want to exclude certain files like *.wav how do I tell grep to make the exclusions?
[01:58] <Darknes> Hello, I have a question. I've decided to install a VM of Ubuntu, and tried installing Xchat. It gave me an error for some reason, stating that it couldn't find the package xchat.
[01:58] <myk_robinson> evening, all. Can any of you advise as to how newer Intel graphics chipsets are performing in Karmic? Looking at new laptops
[01:58] <shadowwulf> mrpink57,  so now if i just want to copy whats in a dir ... in total ... then i just do what ... cp what ?
[01:58] <fawaz> guys i have just installed ubuntu 9.10 ..... and was shocked with a command by mistake found it   ----->   "rpm".          is it working fine with dpkg system
[01:59] <Samp> Darknes, you sure your VM has an internet connection?
[01:59] <hlx> Darknes - terminal -> sudo apt-get update, should resolve any package finding issues, i had the same on a native install
[01:59] <Darknes> IT's connected via Wireless.
[01:59] <Darknes> Oh, k
[01:59] <djuggler> nm. Lost is on.
[01:59] <Darknes> I've used Linux distros before, but only via SSH
[01:59] <hlx> ssh is win
[01:59] <Darknes> So, when it comes to apps etc, I fail
[02:00] <Darknes> hlx, thanks. Hm, what is it updating exactly?
[02:00] <Darknes> lol
[02:00] <hlx> the package manager i guess? I;m no guru, but it worked for me.
[02:00] <Darknes> K. It seems to have worked :D
[02:00] <hlx> =]
[02:01] <codebrainz> How can I run my script on boot, directly after the kernel framebuffer become ready?
[02:01] <Darknes> Heh, I'm running this via Win7 I guess, so much fun.
[02:01] <Darknes> No breaks yet..
[02:01] <hlx> oooh win7 -- i didn't enjoy it much
[02:01] <hlx> taskbar too crazy.
[02:01] <AshishMalik> Darknes, it updates the list of repositories available for download
[02:01] <Darknes> k, thanks.
[02:01] <Dr_Willis> codebrainz:  launch it from /etc/rc.local but that will run as the last service, Not sure how to make somthing run befor that..
[02:01] <Darknes> Ya, win7's GUI is failing so hard.
[02:01] <hlx> good to know, thanks
[02:01] <Darknes> Randomy explorer.exe will not respond.
[02:01] <Darknes> *Randomly
[02:02] <hlx> 64b or 32?
[02:02] <codebrainz> Dr_Willis, yeah, i need to it load immediately after the frame buffer as it's a type of boot splash screen
[02:02] <Darknes> 64bit
[02:02] <Dr_Willis> codebrainz:  for boot splash.. i have to say.. why bother.  useless eyecandy thats goiung to be radically changed in the next release.. good luck.
[02:02] <Darknes> I think one of their hotfixes did it.. as it was fine before.
[02:04] <Darknes> Any suggestions for good apps I should get?
[02:04] <hlx> woot. Reason i switched to ubuntu was that my dll-cache in windows file protection got corrupted, and unlike xp you can't sfc /purgecache and reload from cd. You have to format. So goodbye windows.
[02:04] <Darknes> It says compiz is installed by default, so I'm good here..
[02:04] <hlx> Pidgin for IM, otherwise depends on what you do really
[02:04] <Darknes> I still have to use Windows, for games and such.
[02:04] <Darknes> I have Oblivion, and I'm pretty sure it won't run on Ubuntu..
[02:05] <hlx> I do too, downgraded to xp :P. triple booting ubuntu, xp, and hackintosh right now
[02:05] <Darknes> I did hear about wine? or something
[02:05] <hlx> lots of fiddling with wine to make it work
[02:05] <Darknes> But, it's not great. A friend uses that to run mIRC, and it's kinda borkish.
[02:06] <Samp> why would you use wine to run mirc instead of running a native ubuntu app?
[02:06] <Darknes> Although, it seems computer companies are moving towards *nix, so maybe windows will go away again.
[02:06] <AshishMalik> Darknes, You can get linux based games like nexuiz, wolfenstein etc . . .
[02:06] <Dr_Willis> IRC is the ultimate game.
[02:06] <Darknes> I just lost the game.
[02:07] <Darknes> It makes me laugh though, my computer illiterate friends think Mac cannot ever get viruses..
[02:08] <AshishMalik> Can't say that for windows users though . . .
[02:08] <AshishMalik> they get tons of viruses like every day .
[02:09] <Darknes> Depends I suppose. Of the viruses I have gotten, the worse was some stupid fake firewall, which my dad installed -.-
[02:10] <AshishMalik> cause of windows getting so viruses is that the basic root structure on which windows is built is flawed
[02:10] <AshishMalik> I comparison to linux
[02:11] <xangua> !ot
[02:11] <AshishMalik> ok
[02:11] <MrBob> alright is anyone familiar with the acer aspire 4810tz?
[02:12] <Samp> anyone know why, when I'm in insert mode in VI, sometime the arrow keys work fine, but sometimes they cause seemingly random text to appear?
[02:12] <Darknes> Thanks hlx, AshishMalik. Need to restart and such.
[02:13] <MrBob> okay so on my acer aspire 4810tz i try to change the brightness of the screen and nothing makes a difference, any suggestions?
[02:14] <xangua> MrBob: are you using jaunty¿
[02:14] <xangua> or previous¿
[02:14] <MrBob> i am using Karmic Koala so 9.10 recently updated
[02:14] <PeterT> !stop > PeterT
[02:15] <codebrainz> MrBob, is your BIOS up to date?
[02:16] <almark1> Hello I need to fix a my broken hardy disto but when I go to update the system with the DVD only it won't update and won't mount the DVD, how can I use a DVD to fix the problem?
[02:16] <MrBob> and due to that my battery life is hardly 8 hours, i was wondering about BIOS however i am not aware as to how to update it
[02:17] <codebrainz> MrBob, it says here "can require BIOS update plus configuration" - https://wiki.edubuntu.org/LaptopTestingTeam/AcerTimeline4810TZ
[02:18] <Scunizi> almark1: you haven't said what the problem is
[02:18] <MrBob> thanks code, however pardon me being naiive but i am new to linux (about a few months) and how would i go about updating my bios?
[02:19] <codebrainz> MrBob, it's manufacturer/computer specific, outside of the operating system
[02:19] <almark1> I'm sorry, the problem is Ubuntu Hardy will not mount the DVD
[02:20] <MrBob> i see code, so is this something i can find on this site or do you have somewhere i can turn to for help?
[02:20] <codebrainz> MrBob, http://www.acer.ca/acer/service.do?LanguageISOCtxParam=en&miu10einu24.current.attN2B2F2EEF=3751&sp=page15e&ctx2.c2att1=27&miu10ekcond13.attN2B2F2EEF=3751&CountryISOCtxParam=CA&ctx1.att21k=1&CRC=719687231
[02:20] <codebrainz> make sure that's the right model though
[02:20] <almark1> Scunizi: when I go to put the disk in in the sources and press the button, it tells me that it cant mount or I don't have a Ubuntu based disto, something is very wrong, I use 64 studio but it still suppose to work from the DVD
[02:20] <Scunizi> almark1: well. it seems you have two issues.. the mounting of the dvd and updating which can't be done with the dvd.. unless it's a recent download of the 8.04.4 dvd..  did you get the dvd or cd of ubuntu?
[02:21] <pwasek> i setup a pptp server on my ubuntu server.  I am able to connect with the user name and passowrd but i am only able to connect to my ubuntu server i cant get to any other servers or workstations any suggestions
[02:21] <Scunizi> almark1: 64 studio?  what's that?
[02:21] <Samp> hey what was the offtopic channel again?
[02:21] <almark1> Scunizi_ its 64 studio beta 3 DVD and I can't get answers from my Disto lo0l
[02:21] <Samp> !ot
[02:21] <Samp> cool.
[02:22] <almark1> Scunizi_ I know its not supported by Ubuntu but the commands are the same, its a Studio based 32bit linux based on Hardy Repos
[02:22] <Dr_Willis> almark1:  the desktop cd/dvd i dont think you can use as a repostory to upgrade. The alternative installer cd you cd
[02:22] <Scunizi> almark1: it's near impossible to diagnose another system.. even if it's based on ubuntu. often it's different on the backend.. sorry.
[02:22] <Dr_Willis> you can use to upgrade/as a repo
[02:22] <almark1> Scunizi_ this sounds like I will have to redo the whole system sigh lol
[02:23] <MrBob> okay code, so i am on the page with the BIOS and which one should i updater to? there are four, all of which are newer than my version
[02:23] <Scunizi> almark1: why did you choose that distro instead of ubuntu?
[02:24] <sebsebseb> MrBob: It seems that using Linux to Flash a BIOS  on a lap top would be a bad idea http://apcmag.com/flashrom-091-hunts-down-more-chips-in-the-wild.htm
[02:24] <MrBob> ok so instead i should go on windows and update the bios?
[02:24] <almark1> Scunizi_ because Ubuntu Studio wasn't letting me update and it broke when I did, if something usualy is funny with a disto I jump around lol, im sure millions of Linux uses do that :)
[02:25] <codebrainz> MrBob, no idea, it's mfg specific, it used to be run on floppies, now probably from windows or something, it should be documented somewhere, or call them
[02:25] <almark1> Scunizi_ I think its time for another jump
[02:25] <sebsebseb> MrBob: Well  read the article and you tell me?  However yes it's probably better to use Windows to Flash the BIOS.
[02:25] <Scunizi> almark1: might be.. do you have  a preference for gnome or kde?  the latest kubuntu is pretty polished currently
[02:25] <MrBob> alright cause as you can imagine running at 100% brightness burns the battery like there is no tommorow
[02:25] <sebsebseb> MrBob: useaully  a computers default BIOS is fine by the way
[02:26] <Kismet> hey anyone can help me... my ubuntu dosen't recognise usb drives which are plugged in any more
[02:26] <Xrossfire> can i play games on ubunto
[02:26] <Kismet> i have to mount them manualy
[02:26] <sebsebseb> Xrossfire: of course
[02:26] <sebsebseb> !games | Xrossfire
[02:26] <sebsebseb> Xrossfire: plus Windows games in Wine etc
[02:26] <Xrossfire> whats the benefits of switching from windows to unbuntu?
[02:26] <sebsebseb> Xrossfire: security, it's immune to Windows malware
[02:27] <Xrossfire> k
[02:27] <sebsebseb> Xrossfire: also being infected with Linux malware is rather rare
[02:27] <MrBob> hmm alright well thanks for the information all
[02:27] <almark1> Scunizi_ Better stick with my Gnome, the biggest problem is I have switched Distos since 2005 off and on and use Windows at the same time because that is my main OS but anyway its usally the sound config problems that get me and I have to find something else that works
[02:27] <shadowwulf> what is the command to move everything from one folder to another ?
[02:27] <Scunizi> Xrossfire: the ability to do what and when you want on your system without paying, asking, or breaking any eula's
[02:27] <sebsebseb> Xrossfire: software freedom would be another advantage of course
[02:27] <sebsebseb> !freedom  | Xrossfire
[02:27] <mezimezim> hi, I am having a serious problem with Evolution: it crashes when I try to open the "sent mail" I imported from a .PST file
[02:27] <Xrossfire> its free?
[02:27] <almark1> Scunizi_ The fact is no matter what disto I have tried Jackd is always my problem
[02:28] <Xrossfire> so its like windows or mac with more features?
[02:28] <Scunizi> almark1: ah
[02:28] <sebsebseb> Xrossfire: Ubuntu is free as in price, and most programs in it and that you can easilly get for it are free as in software freedom as well
[02:28] <Munchkinguy> I am having trouble building the Raptor menu for KDE in Karmic. Could someone please help?
[02:29] <sebsebseb> Xrossfire: It's like Mac, meaning not all Windows programs are going to just work on it
[02:29] <Xrossfire> ok
[02:29] <almark1> Scunizi_ I'm thinking of trying Jacklab even though there are no more repos and no more forum but that is off topic
[02:29] <sebsebseb> Xrossfire: Which programs do you want to run?
[02:29] <p3rror> hello
[02:29] <p3rror> is there any html/php editor for gnome
[02:29] <Xrossfire> i was just wondering cause i want to get a new OS and win7 is too expensive
[02:29] <jken146> Xrossfire: The wikipedia article on Ubuntu is a decent explanation of what it is
[02:29] <sebsebseb> Xrossfire: There are good alternatives to most popular WIndows programs,  plus you can get some working  rather well in Wine
[02:29] <p3rror> in kde  i used quanta
[02:30] <xangua> sebsebseb Xrossfire FREE as in freedom, not as in free beer
[02:30] <shadowwulf> Xcrossfire: if i am not mistaken there is something called wine and/or playonlinux for windows programs to work on linux
[02:30] <shadowwulf> what is the command to move everything from one folder to another ?
[02:30] <sebsebseb> xangua: sure, but most people won't understand that
[02:30] <xangua> seb
[02:30] <Scunizi> Xrossfire: get the live cd and run it direct from your cdrom.. try it out.. if you like it then install.. if you have winXP or other then Dual boot if you want
[02:30] <jken146> shadowwulf: mv oldDirectory/* newdir/
[02:30] <AshishMalik> shadowwulf, mv -f /folder /destination
[02:30] <xangua> sebsebseb: then you are gonna lie to them¿
[02:30] <Xrossfire> k ill try it out
[02:30] <sebsebseb> xangua: I got the bot to give him the feredom link, which explains it
[02:30] <Dr_Willis> Xrossfire:   theres also dozens of linux distros to try
[02:30] <sebsebseb> !wine | Xrossfire
[02:30] <DIL> !mbox
[02:31] <sebsebseb> Xrossfire: with enough RAM and such you can also run Windows inside Ubuntu and that's fine for most programs
[02:31] <Dr_Willis> win7 costs more the most pc's i buy.
[02:31] <almark1> Scunizi_ A beta is a beta and there are problems associated with that usually I have to stay away from them
[02:31] <olympus> p3error: check out Bluefish Editor
[02:31] <Xrossfire> k thanks
[02:32] <Scunizi> almark1: beta?  9.10 is in final and 10.04 LTS will be out in April..
[02:33] <shadowwulf> damn that moved the whole dir over .. not what i wante d
[02:33] <DIL> mezimezim, http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=1262735
[02:34] <AshishMalik> shadowwulf, well you wanted to move everything
[02:34] <almark1> Scunizi_ when I got ahold of Ubuntu I can't remember which one, the cdrom tray kept coming in and out and in and out lol that was odd, but every distro has weird problems lol
[02:34] <AshishMalik> or do u want to move just all files in a folder ?
[02:35] <AshishMalik> shadowwulf, In that case : mv -f * /destination
[02:35] <mezimezim> DIL: thanks, but I would really like to solve my problem, not just switch software
[02:36] <mezimezim> Evolution now has a nice import tool for .PST, which I have used to import this particular file, but something seems wrong, and I assume this must be "fixable"....
[02:36] <mezimezim> I like Evolution
[02:36] <DIL> mezimezim, convert pst to mbox format then import
[02:37] <mezimezim> oh! I see...
[02:37] <DIL> mezimezim, never mind
[02:37] <shadowwulf> ok, how do i move the files in a folder to the root dir of the drive
[02:37] <mezimezim> I might just try that then
[02:37] <mezimezim> thanks!
[02:37] <Scunizi> shadowwulf: be a little more specific.. from where to where
[02:37] <AshishMalik> shadowwulf, sudo mv -f * /
[02:38] <AshishMalik> shadowwulf, you must be in the folder where d files r
[02:38] <jken146> AshishMalik: Why -f? That's lazy and dangerous
[02:38] <mezimezim> good night
[02:38] <jken146> (potentially)
[02:38] <almark1> Scunizi_ I have used a few Ubuntu distos over the years, I like Archlinux but there again lol things happen,
[02:38] <Johnny1> How do I get usb devices to run in wine?
[02:38] <jken146> AshishMalik: No, you don't have to be in any particular directory.
[02:38] <Scunizi> shadowwulf: AshishMalik is "exactly" correct however you probably *don't* want to move the files to the actual root.. it's not like a C: drive
[02:39] <Dr_Willis> Johnny1:  would depend on the usb device you aretalking about
[02:39] <shadowwulf> i have a /media/flash drive and on that drive i have a rootfs.cupcake ... i need to move the contents of the folder to the root dir of the flash drive
[02:39] <almark1> Scunizi_ thank you for your info but its time for me to go :)
[02:39] <Johnny1> Dr_Willis: I'm trying to mount my iPod Touch
[02:39] <shadowwulf> Scunizi, it has to .. its for android
[02:39] <AshishMalik> jken146, if u r in d directory, u just avoid writing the full path to that directory. That's all
[02:39] <jken146> shadowwulf: Ah, ok, so your destination ir /media/flash/
[02:39] <jken146> er, is
[02:39] <Dr_Willis> Johnny1:  I dont think you access it directly with wine. You mount it under linux then you access the mounbted location,.
[02:40] <Dr_Willis> Johnny1:  what app are you trying to use in wine to access it>?
[02:40] <Johnny1> Dr_Willis: i-FunBox
[02:40] <shadowwulf> jken146, yes it is ... but i have a rootfs.cupcake folder ... the contents of that folder need to go to the /media/flash
[02:40] <Dr_Willis> Johnny1:  check the wine app database on that app. it might not work properly in wine.
[02:40] <Dr_Willis> !appdb
[02:40] <jken146> shadowwulf: cp rootfs.cupcake/* /media/flash/
[02:41] <Johnny1> Dr_Willis: There isn't one
[02:41] <shadowwulf> jken146, i want to delete the cupcake folder
[02:41] <jken146> shadowwulf: assuming you're in the directory where rootfs.cupcake also is
[02:41] <Dr_Willis> Johnny1:  isent one what?
[02:41] <Johnny1> Dr_Willis: A wine app database
[02:41] <jken146> shadowwulf: then delete i: rm -r rootfs.cupcake
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> Johnny1:  you mean an entry for that app. make one perhaps.. I dont use ipods so cant really help any more.
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> !ipod
[02:43] <Johnny1> I need to ssh into my iPod Touch, Please help me!
[02:43] <jken146> Johnny1: Does your ipod touch have an ssh server?
[02:43] <LucidGuy> Anyone spamassasin savy?
[02:44] <shadowwulf> jken146, didnt copy the folders
[02:44] <jken146> shadowwulf: I told you to use cp to copy the contents of the folder
[02:44] <shadowwulf> jken146,
[02:44] <Johnny1> jken146: yes, but it's locked in android lock screen. I need to get into the files to unlock it.
[02:44] <shadowwulf> jken146, i did ... but it didnt copy the folders
[02:45] <shadowwulf> jken146, i need the folders too
[02:45] <jken146> shadowwulf: Which folders?
[02:45] <jken146> Johnny1: Sorry, I've no idea about ipods/android
[02:46] <shadowwulf> jken146,  there is a dev sbin and a system folder in the rootfs.cupcake folder
[02:46] <Johnny1> Need to ssh into ipod touch, please help me!
[02:46] <shadowwulf> jken146, need to copy them
[02:46] <jken146> shadowwulf: Where is your folder rootfs.cupcake?
[02:47] <shadowwulf> on the /media/flash drive
[02:47] <jken146> shadowwulf: OK. So you want to copy all the files inside /media/flash/rootfs.cupcake to /media/flash/ ?
[02:48] <jken146> shadowwulf: correct?
[02:49] <shadowwulf> jken146,  yep and delete the rootfs.cupcake folder
[02:49] <Dr_Willis> this is when i find using the 'mc' file manager comes in handy...
[02:50] <jken146> shadowwulf: Gotcha. We'll use cp (recursively) to copy the files, then rmdir to remove the leftover empty directory.       cp -r /media/flash/rootfs.cupcake/* /media/flash/ && rmdir /mediaflash/rootfs.cupcake
[02:51] <shadowwulf> jken146, cool thanks
[02:52] <jken146> shadowwulf: Does that make sense?
[02:52] <shadowwulf> jken146,  yep got it .. thanks
[02:52] <harisund1> Any idea why when I connect to IRC and list all channels, it appears I am disconnected from the server immediately?
[02:53] <jken146> harisund1: Which server? freenode?
[02:53] <harisund1> yes Freenode
[02:53] <jken146> harisund1: There are a *lot* of channels on freenode
[02:53] <harisund1> I tried connecting using Pidgin, XChat and irssi .. it connects me, and nothing happens
[02:54] <jken146> harisund1: What do you mean nothing happens?
[02:54] <Dr_Willis> harisund1:  often getting a chnnel list can 'flood' you off the network - from what i recall in the past.
[02:55] <harisund1> Dr_Willis: I think that's what happened then :0
[02:55] <ardchoille> Dr_Willis: it can
[02:55] <Dr_Willis> harisund1:  Normally people allready know what channels they want to join
[02:55] <harisund1> Anyway not a Ubuntu related issue, so dont bother. Here's my Ubuntu related issue. I have 2 250GB SATA hard disks, and I think they are configured for Raid0 stripe. When I install fedora 12 it recognizes it as a 500GB single harddisk, but Ubuntu sees 2 seperate hard dissk .. any clue? I think it's called FakeRaid but I could be wrong
[02:55] <daya> echo test123 | passwd --stdin $user
[02:55] <Dr_Willis> !channels
[02:56] <daya> is there is any alternative to echo pass | passwd --stdin test in ubuntu, this command is supported in Fedora
[02:57] <jken146> daya: What are you trying to do? Change a password?
[02:57] <daya> jken146, yes thru bash
[02:57] <hanasaki> using sound recorder and pulse.. how do I get the audio in on my usb cam w/ a mic?
[02:57] <jken146> daya: just type passwd
[02:57] <ardchoille> daya: It's easier in Ubuntu :)
[02:58] <ardchoille> Hey, I should make an advert out of that.. "It's easier in Ubuntu"
[02:59] <firefly2442> Would someone mind looking at this fstab line and tell me why I can't execute binary files on my NTFS partition? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d62d2f75c
[02:59] <fredweb30> tem algun brasileiro aqui na sala
[02:59] <ardchoille> !brasil | fredweb30
[03:00] <ardchoille> !portuguese | fredweb30
[03:00] <hanasaki> what is a good program to record audio? video? both?
[03:00] <jken146> firefly2442: Have you tried: /dev/sdc1 /media/Windows7 ntfs defaults 0 0    ?
[03:01] <firefly2442> jken146, ahh, I think I just realized the problem, I think the fmask is overriding my executable option
[03:02] <daya> jken146, I am trying to set same password for a bulk of users thru script , echo ubuntu | passwd <user> is invalid
[03:05] <ve5dt> pretty slow here tonight. Bye!
[03:05] <hanasaki> where in pulse audio do you set which mic to use?
[03:05] <renegaid> no matter what I do I ant get ubuntu looking good. this is the only os I know of that looks the same with every build. I have tried so many themes
[03:05] <jken146> daya: I thought you bight be trying to do something like that. I'm trying to figure it out
[03:05] <Raydiation> can i chown root:root in ubuntu?
[03:06] <jken146> Raydiation: yes, you can, but why would you want to?
[03:06] <Raydiation> jken146: install a file which should be only edited by root
[03:06] <daya> jken146, ok
[03:07] <jken146> Raydiation: ok, sounds reasonable. You just need to use sudo.
[03:07] <Raydiation> jken146: ty
[03:08] <jken146> daya: you want chpasswd
[03:08] <roshan> hello
[03:09] <jken146> hello, roshan
[03:09] <roshan> i need help
[03:09] <jken146> roshan: Ask away!
[03:10] <igie> hi, whenever i try to connect to my ubuntu machine from a windows machine, I can see it in network places, when i click to go into it, It says it cannot be found. anyone know why?
[03:10] <roshan> i install ubuntu in my system
[03:10] <juan28> a
[03:10] <jken146> !samba | igie
[03:10] <igie> I have samba installed :s
[03:11] <Berzerker> is there anyway to regenerate a default sources.list if I changed mine?
[03:12] <jken146> igie: Have you got it set up properly? smbuser there? got your shares set up properly?
[03:13] <jken146> Berzerker: It's only a couple of lines really, so don't worry about messing it uip
[03:13] <igie> jken146: not quite sure, I think thats the issue but can't put my finger on what exactly is out of place... I will paste bin my config file.
[03:13] <jken146> igie: thanks
[03:14] <Berzerker> jken146, well the thing is, I replaced all of them with anl.gov, but it can't find xchat, says no installation candidate
[03:16] <jken146> Berzerker: change them all back to archive.ubuntu.com
[03:17] <ardchoille> Berzerker: And then do: sudo apt-get update
[03:17] <j33pfan> quit
[03:17] <Berzerker> yeah that's...tedious
[03:18] <Berzerker> I found a generator though, quite handy.
[03:18] <kebomix> i updated kernel to <IP_ADDRESS>  and i got kernel panic :( , it is because ati driver i installed official driver on the older kernel , and new one doesn't accept it and i can't log into system , any solution ?
[03:18] <jken146> Berzerker: sed s/oldserver/newserver /etc/apt/sources/lsit
[03:18] <jken146> .list
[03:19] <ardchoille> jken146: Probably "sed -i.backup" just to be safe
[03:19] <Berzerker> mm...interesting
[03:19] <Berzerker> thanks
[03:20] <jamesjr7> hello?
[03:20] <sponzor> does ubuntu uses kdump?
[03:20] <hvgotcodes> im noticing that gkrellm and htop stop seem to freeze every 5 seconds.  what is that?
[03:21] <cyn23> help please
[03:21] <cyn23> i want to change my x boot splash resolution
[03:21] <ardchoille> hvgotcodes: sounds like something is spiking the cpu every five seconds
[03:22] <hvgotcodes> ardchoille, i dont see a spike
[03:22] <coleosis> How does one change the resolution of the x login screen?
[03:22] <ardchoille> hvgotcodes: well those two apps are completely unrelated to eachother
[03:22] <daya> jken146, chpasswd requires the file with list  such as  user1:passwd1user2:passwd2,
[03:23] <hvgotcodes> ardchoille, right, but they both are measuring usage independently.  they both show the same 'freeze'.
[03:23] <kebomix> how to remove officail ati driver 9.10 ?
[03:24] <ardchoille> hvgotcodes: hmm.. neither of those apps have any freeze here on Karmic. I still think something is spiking the cpu but it's just a guess
[03:24] <daya> jken146, I am writing a script thru for loop to add users (user1 - user100) and set the password for each to password
[03:24] <hlx> does pygtk come installed in 9.10 by default? canot find a package
[03:24] <jken146> daya: the man page says it takes stdin
[03:25] <ardchoille> !info python-gtk2 | hlx
[03:25] <daya> jken146, in man page of chpasswd ?
[03:25] <hvgotcodes> ardchoille, yeah im on karmic 64 bit
[03:25] <jken146> daya: yes
[03:25] <ardchoille> hvgotcodes: Ah, 32 bit here, may be the difference
[03:25] <hlx> thank you
[03:25] <ardchoille> yw
[03:26] <daya> jken146, not in my man page about stdin
[03:26] <hvgotcodes> ardchoille, maybe some buffers are clearing?
[03:26] <ardchoille> hlx: in the future you can always search: apt-cache search -n python | grep gtk
[03:26] <ardchoille> hvgotcodes: I'm not familiar at all with 64bit
[03:26] <hlx> kk, newer to the whole nix thing, grep more or less just says "search for this phrase" right?
[03:27] <nfoxTc> hey how do you disable word wrap on the terminal
[03:27] <ardchoille> hlx: grep says "filter"
[03:27] <hlx> k
[03:27] <droid7> what is the name of the package for "restricted drivers manager" ?
[03:28] <jken146> droid7: jockey
[03:28] <hlx> lastly, where would one go to get on track for coding-development-help for ubuntu? I'm getting used to the languages i know on here, and would like to contribute.
[03:28] <ardchoille> hlx: and the "-n" means "search for the text from package names only", regular search would be: apt-cache search foo | grep bar
[03:28] <droid7> jken146: thanks!
[03:28] <jken146> daya: man chpasswd
[03:29] <droid7> one last question. I was having issues with pulse audio and delayed sound when pausing flash video, so I replaced with it alsa. Now my volume keys don't work, and the gnome volume applet doesn't exist. Anythign I can do fix that?
[03:29] <Berzerker> jken146, how do I use sed if there's a / in the server I'm replaing
[03:30] <jken146> daya: for example, sudo echo joebloggs:p4s5w0rD | chpasswd
[03:30] <Random832> hlx; it's not so much a phrase as an exact string
[03:30] <Random832> (though you've also got all sorts of wildcard stuff to control it)
[03:30] <Random832> if you don't know about all that you should probably use fgrep
[03:30] <ardchoille> Berzerker: sed 's|server/name|new/server/name|'  or  sed 's#server/name#new/server/name'
[03:31] <jken146> Berzerker: escape a forward slash like this: \/
[03:31] <daya> jken146, yes that way it works , Great !
[03:31] <daya> jken146, by the way , what about stdin command in ubuntu
[03:32] <Berzerker> ardchoille, thanks
[03:32] <ardchoille> yw
[03:32] <ardchoille> jken146: just fyi, you can use "/" or "|" or "#" with sed
[03:33] <Berzerker> ardchoille, damn...still getting "xchat has no installation candidate"...
[03:33] <Berzerker> even with default sources
[03:33] <ardchoille> Berzerker: Did you do: sudo apt-get update
[03:33] <Berzerker> yeah
[03:33] <ardchoille> Berzerker: can you pastebin your sources file so I can have a look?
[03:33] <ardchoille> !pastebin
[03:34] <jken146> daya: there is no stdin command
[03:34] <Berzerker> ah wait...
[03:34] <daya> jken146, ok
[03:34] <Geoffrey2> for some reason, I cannot get the CD/DVD creator in Karmic to burn a CD....the burn seems to work, the desktop icon still shows Blank CD-R, and when i click on it I go right back into the CD/DVD creator
[03:34] <Berzerker> ardchoille, sed didn't change the links, it outputted everything correctly in the terminal, but nothing in sources.list was changed...is there some sort of option I should be using, or a switch?
[03:35] <ardchoille> Berzerker: That's why you need the "-i" to "make changes inline":  sed -i.backup 's/old text/new text/g' /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:36] <Linkadmin> every time i switch user on netbook-remix, gdm runs pm-suspend. Does anyone have any idea why?
[03:36] <ardchoille> Berzerker: sudo sed -i.backup 's/old text/new text/g' /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:36] <ardchoille> Berzerker: the ".backup" makes a back up before doing the work just i case
[03:36] <Berzerker> ardchoille, doesn't output errors...but changes nothing...maybe I'm spelling something wrong...
[03:36] <ardchoille> Berzerker: needs sudo
[03:36] <sponzor> hi what to use for crash dump? that it captures kernel panic etc..?
[03:37] <hlx> is there a guide anywhere to using launchpad? a little convoluted for first time use
[03:37] <Berzerker> oh wait that did it
[03:37] <Berzerker> ardchoille, no I did sudo, apparently I was reading it wrong
[03:37] <ardchoille> ah, ok
[03:37] <ardchoille> Berzerker: now  you need to do: sudo apt-get update
[03:37] <metaltothedeath> Hey
[03:37] <Berzerker> ardchoille, yup got it, thanks
[03:37] <ardchoille> yw
[03:37] <metaltothedeath> How do i do the thing
[03:37]  * ardchoille has been loving Ubuntu since 2005
[03:38] <Berzerker> ardchoille, another quick q, how do I upgrade the kernel to .32?
[03:38] <ardchoille> Berzerker: updating the kernel requires:  sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:39] <ardchoille> Berzerker: That updates to the latest from the repos. Beyond that I can't help because I don't use apps outside the repos
[03:39] <Berzerker> k, thanks
[03:39] <ardchoille> yw
[03:39] <Berzerker> dist-upgrade only gives me 31-19
[03:40] <ardchoille> Berzerker: then you may have to compile your own kernel, but that is quite a big job
[03:40] <Berzerker> yeah...
[03:40] <jken146> Berzerker: What do you need 32 for btw?
[03:40] <Berzerker> I'm sure I'll find some .deb to install
[03:40] <Berzerker> jken146, I hear it has a decent speed increases
[03:41] <ardchoille> Berzerker: I'd be very weary of installing a kernel from a .deb that isn't in your repos
[03:41] <ardchoille> Berzerker: And it's a bad idea to add mix repos, ie: Karmic/Lucid
[03:41] <jken146> Berzerker: I doubt it's worth the hassle
[03:41] <Berzerker> http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.32/linux-headers-2.6.32-020632-generic_2.6.32-020632_i386.deb
[03:42] <Berzerker> directly from ubuntu..
[03:42] <ardchoille> Ah, might be worth a try then
[03:42] <Berzerker> http://www.ramoonus.nl/2009/12/03/linux-kernel-2-6-32-installation-guide-for-ubuntu-linux/#
[03:42] <Berzerker> if anyone cares
[03:42] <nomnex> is X like the Windows kernel?
[03:42] <jken146> You could use apt pinning to get the newer kernel from lucid
[03:42] <Berzerker> I'm not running lucid, and upgrade attempt made netbook launcher constantly crash
[03:42] <ardchoille> nomnex: x is a windowing system that gnome runs on top of
[03:42] <jken146> but there's no guarantee it wouldn't break things horribly
[03:43] <ardchoille> jken146: please don't recommend mixing releases like that (Karmic/Lucid), can cause lots of problems.
[03:44] <jken146> ardchoille: I'm not recommending it. It's probably a very bad idea for something like the kerne;
[03:44] <nomnex> ardchoille, I have read on Wikipedia that x was also a server (e.g. Terminal Server Client)
[03:44] <ardchoille> yeah
[03:44] <nomnex> ardchoille, so without X gnome does "not work"?
[03:44] <ardchoille> nomnex: gnome needs x to run
[03:45] <happyface> is there a way to hide my terminal actions in a linux terminal? (aka people can't w/who to see what i'm up to)
[03:45] <nomnex> ardchoille, last question, what the pending x on Windows if any?
[03:45] <ardchoille> nomnex: Please rephrase that, I didn't understand it
[03:46] <DavidJHeinrich> hi all, can anyone help me with a problem with ManDVD
[03:46] <ardchoille> nomnex: I haven't touched a Microsoft product in 9 years, so I have no idea about Windows OS
[03:46] <jken146> happyface: You can delete your ~/.bash_history file
[03:46] <rainy-day> what is a nice looking fontstring for xterm, something similar to konsole default font?
[03:46] <nomnex> ardchoille, sorry about it, is there a X (diff name or system) comparable on Windoze?
[03:46] <jken146> happyface: but that won't hide the processes  you're running
[03:46] <nomnex> ardchoille, ;-) okay no problem
[03:46] <happyface> jken146: thanks thats one step :P
[03:47] <ardchoille> happyface: iirc, man history tells you how to not record bash history
[03:47] <Random832> rainy-day; the fonts that come with xterm by default are probably the best you're going to get, unless you've got some other bitmap font you're a fan of
[03:47] <rainy-day> Random832: doh
[03:47] <Berzerker> ardchoille, if I install this kernel version over it, will it recognize updates for it also?
[03:48] <cyn23> help me with my bootsplash resolution please
[03:48] <jken146> nomnex: Windows is monolithic, where GNU is layer-upon-layer. GNOME runs on top of X, which runs on init,... with ther kernel at the bottom (slightly simplified)
[03:48] <ardchoille> Berzerker: the package manager is the thing responsible for updates, you installing a package manually may not get updates at all.
[03:48] <rainy-day> Ok then.. is there some way to have a konsole or gnome terminal that will have a different icon in taskbar? I need to have a couple terminals that I want to look different from my main terminal
[03:49] <jken146> rainy-day: you can set up multiple profiles in gnome-terminal
[03:49] <Random832> wait a minute... that's conventional wisdom
[03:49] <Random832> i just did a google search and HOLY CRAP
[03:50] <Random832> xterm -fa 'Bitstream Vera Sans Mono'
[03:50] <cyn23> help me with my boot splash resolution please it use to be in 1024x768 with SiS 661fx but 8s now 8x6 with ATI Radeon 9550
[03:50] <cyn23> help me with my boot splash resolution please it use to be in 1024x768 with SiS 661fx but 8s now 8x6 with ATI Radeon 9550
[03:50] <nomnex> jken146, thanks, I am getting used to the definitions. It means I can change desktop manager (GNOME, KDE) but the underlying will be X for all? and X will also be use remotely (thin-client infrastructure, by example)
[03:50] <hlx> you mean, google has something other than sponsored links? :o
[03:50] <rainy-day> jken146: how can I start gnome terminal in kubuntu, when I start it I get konsole instead! and I can't change that in its profiles
[03:50] <mattgyver> Hey guys, is there a way to recognize 4gb of ram in ubuntu without using the 64bit version?
[03:50] <jken146> rainy-day: then run the one you want with gnome-terminal --window-with-profile=PROFILENAME
[03:50] <live_wire> Hey people, I am new to Ubuntu and to linux.  I installed version 9.10 with Grub2 on a second partition.  All was well until I installed startup-manager and changed my resolution.  Now after trying to boot in Ubuntu it brings me to a black screen.
[03:50] <DaemonFC> mattgyver, Yes, use the PAE kernel
[03:50] <Random832> rainy-day; you can set the xterm font to real fonts with -fa instead of -fn
[03:50] <ardchoille> Random832: hey, that's the nicest xterm font I've ever seen
[03:50] <jken146> rainy-day: I imagine there is something similar in konsole
[03:50] <live_wire> I've gone through several google searches with no luck
[03:50] <rainy-day> Random832: that looks awesome! thanks
[03:50] <mattgyver> DaemonFC, thanks ill look into it :)
[03:51] <Random832> i never knew that before today
[03:51] <ardchoille> Random832: I disliked xterm because of the font until now
[03:51] <DaemonFC> mattgyver, I believe the PAE kernel can address up to 48 GB of RAM
[03:51] <jken146> nomnex: yes, KDE, GNOME< XFCE, etc. will all run on the same X server. And X can be accessed remotely too
[03:52] <daya> jken146, any idea to verify that the user password is right or wrong, I am trying to write a bash script to change FTP password via web
[03:52] <DaemonFC> mattgyver, Another thing you could do is use the 64-bit kernel on your 32-bit Ubuntu system
[03:52] <mattgyver> DaemonFC, okay.. any idea whats the best most stable method?
[03:52] <rainy-day> Random832: and -fs changes size! cool
[03:52] <jken146> daya: No, you can't find out what a password is
[03:52] <nomnex> jken146, I can use OpenSSH to rsync or access Dirs/files from the console, but can I use OpenSSH to access a remote machine?
[03:52] <DaemonFC> mattgyver, Use the X86-64 version of Ubuntu is the best thing to do
[03:52] <Random832> daya; you really need to interact with the 'passwd' command
[03:53] <DaemonFC> PAE is kind of hacky and may aggravate some 3rd party driver
[03:53] <jken146> nomnex: yes, SSH is used for securely logging in to a remote computer
[03:53] <mattgyver> DaemonFC, I would do that but ive just heard there are a lot of application compatibilty issues with the 64bit, and im not really ready to go that route yet
[03:53] <DaemonFC> it's also a bit slower than the native addressing in the 64-bit kernel
[03:53] <daya> jken146, yes I suppose that, but there is at least some way to do it, may be some perl or python mods
[03:53] <nomnex> jken146, thanks
[03:53] <DaemonFC> mattgyver, There are no issues on the X86-64 version
[03:54] <jken146> mattgyver: 64bit ubuntu is fine
[03:54] <DaemonFC> there's 32-bit libraries that can be used for 32-bit compatibility
[03:54] <daya> Random832, any idea about it
[03:54] <DaemonFC> they're all brought in as dependences if you isntall Wine :)
[03:54] <mattgyver> Okay, well then maybe ill dive into it, im about to reconfigure my system anyway in the next week or so cuz i got a new SSD to play with
[03:54] <mkquist> jken146: i agree been using it for quite some time no problems
[03:55] <nomnex> jken146, one more think, does the remote deskotp viewer (GUI) in Application allow SSH connection or only through the command line?
[03:55] <nomnex> jken146, sorry bad english...
[03:55] <Random832> sorry
[03:55] <jken146> daya: Passwords are encrypted and stored in /etc/shadow in such a way that you can generate the ecrypted string from the password (to authenticate) but not do the reverse
[03:55] <Random832> jken146; which would mean he has to run his php script as root
[03:55] <JULinuxUser> If possible a question from a new julinux user, the program says its installed but on restart at the 2nd screen is says error no such partition <grub rescue>
[03:55] <DaemonFC> mattgyver, The only reason to stay with 32-bit x86 version of Ubuntu is if your CPU does not support X86-64
[03:55] <jennie> Hey,hey,hey
[03:56] <jken146> Random832: He would have to be root to use chpasswd
[03:56] <mattgyver> DaemonFC, then im a dummy cuz mine i deffinately a 64 bit :X
[03:56] <jennie> >0<
[03:56] <jken146> Random832: but I thought daya was writing a bash script anyway
[03:56] <live_wire> is there a way to reset my resolution at grub?
[03:56] <Random832> jken146; my suggestion was passwd, not chpasswd
[03:56] <gmendoza> Out of curiosity, has anyone heard of a quick fix for Flash video flickering?  Lots of conflicting ideas in searches so far.  I've noticed it with Intel and ATI chipsets, both in Firefox and Chrome, with compiz enabled and disabled.
[03:57] <jazz> Jordan_U,  are you still about?
[03:57] <ChogyDan> gmendoza: jaunty?
[03:57] <nomnex> mattgyver, not for me, the reason are the codecs on Medibuntu, 32 packages offer much more than 64
[03:57] <daya> Random832, jken146 I am only trying to write a CGI using bash to let my FTP users to change their password
[03:57] <gmendoza> karmic...
[03:57] <jken146> Random832: passwd doesn't work; it's interactive
[03:57] <DaemonFC> mattgyver, If you asked me in 2005/2006, I would have been insistent on staying with 32-bit x86 because the 32-bit compatibility libraries weren't really all there yet, but there's no good reason to not use X86-64 now
[03:57] <ChogyDan> gmendoza: er, yeah, the latest stable
[03:57] <Random832> jken146; you can redirect its stdin
[03:58] <mattgyver> DaemonFC, well ill deffinately give it a shot and see if it works out better for me, if it doesnt ill just roll back to 32bit
[03:58] <gmendoza> ChogyDan: yeah, running Adobe Flash 10.0 r42
[03:58] <DaemonFC> people liked to FUD X86-64 for a long time because of those early compatibility issues
[03:58] <ChogyDan> gmendoza: would you mind telling me some of the conflicting solutions?  I'm curious.  I'd be happy to give you my solutions
[03:58] <mattgyver> DaemonFC, that might be what i got traped in
[03:58] <jken146> nomnex: Um, I'm not sure about that app, I've not used it. I *think* it's a VNC viewer, which is a bit more than just X forwarding on ssh (but then I get out of my depth on how that works)
[03:58] <DaemonFC> mattgyver, Just bring in Wine and you'll have all the 32-bit compatibility environment you need because Wine depends on all of them
[03:58] <Random832> just (echo $oldpass; echo $newpass; echo $newpass) | passwd
[03:58] <mattgyver> DaemonFC, shall do :)
[03:59] <DaemonFC> so does bringing in ubuntu-restricted-extras cause Flash wants them
[03:59] <mattgyver> Okay
[03:59] <shannon_> hey how do i install gstreamer plugins for use with totem so i can watch dvd's
[03:59] <Random832> (that was even easier than i thought it would be)
[03:59] <Random832> now, you have to be running _as the user_ for that to work properly, just like for reading shadow you'd have to be root
[03:59] <DaemonFC> shannon_, Use the Medibuntu repository and install libdvdcss2
[04:00] <DaemonFC> Ubuntu can't legally distribute that library
[04:00] <gmendoza> ChogyDan: some ranging from recompiling kernel, others suggest ati specific settings in xorg.  Havent found much about the intel settings.
[04:00] <nomnex> jken146, I see, do you happen to have a good link (tutorial) to ssh a remote server?
[04:00] <DaemonFC> shannon_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[04:00] <jken146> !ssh | nomex
[04:00] <Raydiation> hm whats the apache user in ubuntu?
[04:00] <shannon_> thank you DaemonFC
[04:01] <Raydiation> apache or http?
[04:01] <ChogyDan> gmendoza: heh, well, Im the one that sent out a suggestion to run a different kernel.  Ive also found that the issue is solved in lucid
[04:01] <nomnex> jken146, you made my day.
[04:01] <ChogyDan> gmendoza: I threw up my experience here: http://chogydan.blogspot.com/2010/01/flashy-flash-flashin-ubuntu-karmic.html
[04:01] <Random832> also look into setting up PAM authentication on your php
[04:02] <gmendoza> ChogyDan: very good, I'll have a look.  Much appreciated.
[04:03] <ChogyDan> gmendoza: hmm, I should update the warnings about the kernel, I've been running it for awhile now.
[04:03] <jken146> nomnex: yw :)
[04:04] <shannon_> what next DaemonFC
[04:04] <DaemonFC> shannon_, sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2
[04:05] <zinox> there is any tutorial to help me install this video card >> Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV370 [Radeon X300SE]  on ubuntu lucid?
[04:05] <DaemonFC> shannon_, Totem also doesn't make the greatest DVD player, you may want to grab VLC while you're at it
[04:07] <kebomix> hello , i got kernel panic after installing linux header 2.6.31-19 because of ati driver , i removed official driver that was already installed but still have same problem !?
[04:08] <live_wire> just changed graphics resolution in startup-manager.  now i cannot boot in ubuntu, not even recovery mode.  i just receive a black screen.. any help please?
[04:09] <Drakon> Hi, totally new to Linux, got sick of windows XP/Vista etc... now i've sorta got everything running ok i wanted to install a login window theme, except i can't figure out how, even though i downloaded one from the site that the theme manager suggests... can anyone help??
[04:10] <blakkheim> Drakon: you basically can't change the gdm theme in 9.10
[04:10] <Berzerker> ardchoille, is there a way to force the grub menu up?
[04:10] <Drakon> oh fair enough... so it's for older versions??... or it's difficult?
[04:11] <Li_On_> hello? Good evening everyone. This is acutally my first time in an IRC chat so I just picked this channel since I'm taking baby steps into the world of Ubuntu
[04:11] <blakkheim> Drakon: older
[04:11] <Drakon> thankyou
[04:11] <jken146> Li_On_: hello. How can we help?
[04:12] <live_wire> Should I re-install ubuntu, or grub2?
[04:12] <hlx> where does one go if they want to get on the path to eventually writing code for ubuntu? (im fluent on C++, python and java in windows, learning portability concepts.), and would like to get started on the patch to contribution
[04:12] <docoxxx> hola
[04:12] <songer> hello, i can't find: flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound
[04:12] <docoxxx> nesito ayuda
[04:13] <hlx> on the path *
[04:13] <jken146> hlx: find a project you like and see what needs doing. Look on launchpad and sourceforge
[04:13] <hlx> alright, is there some guided tour for launchpad? seems quite convoluted
[04:13] <Li_On_> So, first thing's first...I wiped and old XP machine and made a clean install of Ubuntu...plugged in the ethernet cable...firefox launched immediately(wow!)...what do i need to know as windows user to better appreciate my transition...? security? alternative software?...any tips...
[04:14] <Drakon> i'm also looking to find out how to set up my xbox360 to Linux... can anyone point me in the right direction?
[04:14] <hlx> Drakon: eh?
[04:14] <DasEi> Li_On_: karmic ?
[04:14] <Alphex> can anyone point me to a bash scripting channel?
[04:15] <jken146> songer: Li_On_: Security -- you don't need to do anything :)  As for the rest, just start using it, and see how you go. You'll find software in the Software Center (in the Applications menu)
[04:15] <ChogyDan> hlx: I did the packaging upgrade guide, and that has got me started
[04:15] <shannon_> got it! Thanks again, DaemonFC
[04:15] <ChogyDan> hlx: now I can open up a package, apply some source code edits, and pack it back up again
[04:15] <DaemonFC> yep
[04:15] <hlx> ChogyDan: Will look into that then, thanks
[04:15] <Li_On_> i believe so...i can't say im too familiar with the distro names...
[04:15] <DasEi> !version | Li_On_
[04:16] <Drakon> well i had it set up so i could watch movies from my computer through my xbox onto my big screen tv via ethernet connection... is there a way that anyone knows that i could do that?
[04:16] <hlx> like via Tversity? or windows media centre connector
[04:16] <hlx> I would think you could do it with SAMBA
[04:16] <DasEi>  Li_On_ : for karmic : http://tiny.cc/kDdv0
[04:16] <Drakon> umm it just sorta connected to be honest... and i could look through my computers video files
[04:17] <Drakon> it was on xp
[04:17] <jken146> Drakon: It sounds like a job for Samba
[04:17] <jken146> !samba | Drakon
[04:17] <Drakon> well... it's a place to start :)
[04:17] <tp43> Alphex, did you try #bash?
[04:17] <Geoffrey2> hey folks, I burned a CD in the CD/DVD creator, I got a message the burn was successful, and yet I still show a Blank CD on the Desktop, and clicking on it takes me back to the CD/DVD creator
[04:17] <songer> jken146,  after some time in firefox on megavideo audio disappears
[04:18] <tp43> songer, yeah, I noticed, and you have to restart.  wierd
[04:18] <Alphex> ty for the chan
[04:18] <Li_On_> yes, it is Karmic after all...(im learning here...)
[04:19] <jken146> songer: Audio in linux can be a pain. Sometimes I find kicking the sound preferences options GUI thing helps (switching between the 'hardware' options)
[04:19] <songer> jken146, that's why i'm lookiong for flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound
[04:19] <Li_On_> i find installing stuff is lot easier too with the Synaptic Manager
[04:19] <Li_On_> you just take what you need and boom, done.
[04:19] <illyume> Hey, I'm looking for a program that will allow me to play mp3 files at reduced speeds (such as 1/2x or 1/4x) to help me learn some pieces by ear. Are there any packages in Ubuntu's repository that will do this, or will allow me to edit a .mp3 file to half speed?
[04:20] <DasEi> Li_On_: depends on, cmd-line is much faster, if you answer to someone, put their nick in what you say so there your message gets highlighted
[04:20] <illyume> I maybe should ask that in a different channel, but eh.
[04:20] <songer> but i've not find flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound
[04:20] <Li_On_> DasEi : like this
[04:20] <DasEi> y,  Li_On_
[04:21] <Berzerker> anyone help? I'm stuck at memtest when booting, accidentally set it as default
[04:21] <ImALittleNuts> where is the normal or good location for a svn repo
[04:21] <jken146> songer: It seems to be in multiverse
[04:21] <ardchoille> Berzerker: I never mess with grub because I rarely see that screen
[04:21] <DasEi> Berzerker: grub 2 ?
[04:22] <Li_On_> DasEi : i hear this ping sound when you send me something...when i click the username it opens a "whois" window...is that normal? (im such a noob, im sorry)
[04:22] <Berzerker> yeah
[04:22] <By_Your_Command> I'll Grub you
[04:22] <datz> hi, I have ubuntu server edition. I've installed gnome-desktop, but I can't use the network manager to edit the default eth0 connection.
[04:22] <ardchoille> !grub2
[04:22] <DasEi> Li_On_: it is, which messenger ?
[04:22] <Berzerker> ardchoille, says to hold the shift key, but that doesn't work
[04:22] <songer> i already have it but in terminal type mozilla-plugin-gnash  and it says : Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched
[04:22] <Li_On_> im acutally using ChatZilla as plugin on firefox...
[04:23] <DasEi> Berzerker: /etc/default/grub,  edit with as root, then run update-grub (as root)
[04:23] <Li_On_> (didnt put the nam again, sorry...0
[04:23] <Berzerker> DasEi, I'm not able to get into anything
[04:23] <datz> does anyone know of a way I can gain permission to edit the default eth0 connection?
[04:23] <songer> sorry Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound"
[04:23] <Berzerker> DasEi, right on boot, it goes into memtest
[04:23] <By_Your_Command> I'm not able to not get nothin
[04:23] <DasEi> Berzerker: left shift ? esc at grub loading ? else need to chroot from live cd
[04:24] <DasEi> Li_On_: there are few decent apps for that, highly configurable
[04:24] <datz> anyone know how to manually edit the local IP?
[04:24] <jken146> songer: you're right -- apt-cache search flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound turns up nothing for me; yet packages.ubuntu.com claims it exists
[04:24] <datz> there must be a file somewhere
[04:25] <ve5dt> Bye for now
[04:25] <By_Your_Command> yeah goto ETH0 Auto and change to manually set IP
[04:25] <By_Your_Command> heh
[04:25] <hyperstream> Drakon, im here mate :P
[04:25] <datz> By_Your_Command: I can't edit that config profile
[04:25] <lao5> .h
[04:25] <songer> ok
[04:25] <datz> By_Your_Command: I can't edit or delete it
[04:25] <By_Your_Command> by your clock where it shows your network is connected
[04:26] <ardchoille> jken146: the website pool has all the different ubuntu releases, and you're only on one release, this is why you see a diff between the site and the package manager
[04:26] <DasEi> !messenger | Li_On_ , and evolution , as said amongst others are common
[04:26] <By_Your_Command> right click and choose edit connections
[04:26] <datz> By_Your_Command: it isn't highlighted, I can't choose it
[04:26] <DasEi> datz: /etc/network/interfaces
[04:26] <Li_On_> ubottu : really? at the same time??
[04:27] <DasEi> !brain | Li_On_
[04:27] <datz> DasEi, thanks I'll give it a try
[04:27] <ardchoille> jken146: for instance, trayer is available for Jaunty but not for Karmic, yet you'll still see it in packages.ubuntu.com
[04:27] <By_Your_Command> edit the interface script then
[04:27] <DasEi> datz: edit as root, ask if unsure, then restart network
[04:27] <By_Your_Command> sudo -i
[04:28] <jken146> ardchoille: I know that. This package is listed as being in intrepid, jaunty, karmic and lucid [multiverse]. I'm using karmic, and have multiverse in sources.list. Yet apt sees no package.
[04:28] <datz> DasEi: ok got it, as it is set for DHCP now, I don't know where to enter the static IP
[04:28] <ardchoille> jken146: which package?
[04:28] <DasEi> datz: open a trml ...
[04:28] <datz> DasEi: under auto eth0?
[04:28] <By_Your_Command> change the script to static and type it in
[04:28] <DasEi> datz: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[04:29] <live_wire> can someone please help me get back in to ubuntu?
[04:29] <datz> ok
[04:29] <jken146> ardchoille: and it appears it's the same for songer. flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound
[04:29] <raddad> Question: Get this error trying to run rhythmbox "2NVIDIA OpenGL Driver requires CPUs with SSE to run." running 9.1 on an old 800mhz machine.  Anyway around the driver issue?

[04:29] <hlx> how do i search packages on apt? looking for F4L
[04:29] <lanzha> where I can download ubuntu 10.04?
[04:29] <DasEi> hlx: apt-cache search or show
[04:29] <By_Your_Command> DasEi pastebin this.... ->
[04:29] <ardchoille> jken146: shows up in my package manager and I'm on Karmic
[04:30] <Li_On_> DasEi : so ubottu is actually some type of AI or something?
[04:30] <hlx> DasEi: Thanks.
[04:30] <ardchoille> !bot
[04:30] <By_Your_Command> We are all AI
[04:30] <ardchoille> haha

[04:31] <Flannel> Li_On_: #ubuntu+1 can help you
[04:31] <Berzerker> wow
[04:31] <Berzerker> this is irritating
[04:31] <Berzerker> tried reinstalling from live-cd, STILL boots into memtest by default
[04:31] <By_Your_Command> All we owe...We owe to her...
[04:31] <datz> iflema: humm, I didn't think could set a static IP with ifconfig, I'll check it out
[04:32] <iflema> datz sure can and more
[04:32] <Li_On_> DasEi : interesting...smart even...
[04:32] <hlx> Berzerker - tried something like acronis or gparted to set the ubunt partition to active?
[04:32] <arand> Berzerker: Does your grub config file specify a default entry?
[04:32] <Berzerker> arand, yes, 0
[04:32] <By_Your_Command> datz: edit your network scripts and then restart networking
[04:32] <Berzerker> arand, grub.cfg reports the correct kernel as the first entry
[04:32] <Berzerker> arand, holding SHIFT on boot doesn't show the menu
[04:32] <hlx> oh, grub *runs*
[04:32] <arand> Berzerker: Ok, was just checking the simple solutions..
[04:33] <iflema> datz e.g. ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS> up
 Sorry, I don't know anything about fool
[04:33] <By_Your_Command> haha
[04:34] <hlx> zerk: what caused this in the first place? hdd get shaken abby sydrome or something

[04:34] <settntrenz> were changes implemented in 9.10 that require you to configure nameservers in /etc/network/interfaces as opposed to /etc/resolv.conf? I noticed that my resolv.conf now has "DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND" and of course any edits are scrapped on boot.

[04:36] <jken146> ardchoille: This is Weird. I'm using gb.archive.ubuntu.com and if I browse that then I find the actual package on the server, as I'd expect. But I *don't* find it in http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/karmic/multiverse/binary-amd64/Packages.gz (that's where apt get's the package list, right?)

[04:41] <hlx> Thanks.
[04:41] <songer> jken146,  thanks
[04:42] <songer> so i don't have a soluion?
[04:42] <DasEi> datz: you can switch it back to dhcp, then use ifconfig for correct values, vm defaults to a 10.10... address
[04:42] <Rutro> So is there someone here who could possibly help a pretty noob linux user?
[04:42] <Berzerker> wow finally got it to work
[04:42] <hlx> Depends on how you have your VM setup, what VM service are you using?
[04:42] <ardchoille> Rutro: With what?
[04:42] <DasEi> !ask | rutro
[04:42] <By_Your_Command> Rutro: what's going on?
[04:43] <Rutro> Well I am trying to learn some Linux information, i am having an issue right now where when i restart my machine my network settings dont start automatically?
[04:43] <By_Your_Command> chkconfig network on
[04:43] <ardchoille> Rutro: Which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[04:43] <datz> DasEi: ok, here are the errors though.  SIOCADDRT : No such process.  MSVPC? Something else? Do you get a valid address via dhcp? Is your network adapter set to bridged on the VM?
[04:45] <DasEi> datz: virtual box ? address:<IP_ADDRESS>  Bcast:<IP_ADDRESS>
[04:46] <live_wire> It appears startup-manager has completely crashed my install of linux, so frustrated
[04:46] <Ether> hey guys... how can I unmount a mount point?
[04:47] <Ether> I tried unmount, but it doesnt work
[04:47] <By_Your_Command> umount /dev/?
[04:47] <hlx> datz: how is your VM networking set up? Does your 10.10 address bridge t oyour local network and share?
[04:47] <datz> DasEi: vmware workstation
[04:47] <Flannel> Ether: It's umount, not unmount
[04:47] <DasEi> Ether: a device, not a mountpoint, like sudo umount /dev/sda1
[04:47] <Ether> oh
[04:47] <Ether> heh
[04:47] <datz> yea I get a valid address via DHCP
[04:47] <Ether> thank you
[04:47] <DasEi> np
[04:48] <DasEi> datz: ifconfig tells which address/mask ?
[04:48] <datz> yea
[04:48] <DasEi> so ?

[04:49] <juan__> hi im reading https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Basic but seems it only explain how to package/build  on packages that already are on ubuntu repo,I.E. it uses apt-get source,i want a guide for packages that  are not on ubuntu repo,any link???
[04:49] <jken146> juan__: You want to look up the Debian packaging guidelines
[04:49] <Li_On_> good night everyone. thanks for the great first experience. will return for sure.
[04:50] <DasEi> !packaging | juan__
[04:50] <live_wire> jken146...
[04:50] <By_Your_Command> so long...
[04:50] <hlx> another one converted :D
[04:50] <datz> DasEi: http://pastebin.com/m6d261f99
[04:50] <juan__> jken146: but these talk about building, i want to package fonts, cant build fonts
[04:50] <juan__> :/
[04:51] <freeride> where to find apt.conf
[04:51] <live_wire> By_Your_Command...
[04:51] <By_Your_Command> Yes?
[04:51] <live_wire> ok, just making sure my post are getting out there
[04:51] <juan__> just .ttf files
[04:51] <datz> I'll try what iflema said: ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS> up
[04:51] <jken146> juan__: or look at the Ubuntu Packaging Guide (ubottu just gave the link)!
[04:52] <By_Your_Command> yes I just don't know about install manager
[04:52] <By_Your_Command> ;(
[04:52] <datz> although I'm not sure where to enter the staic address
[04:52] <hlx> datz: no gateway?
[04:52] <datz> I see the gateway and mask
[04:52] <hlx> oh, i didnt see it on the pastebin, maybe im blind
[04:52] <datz> gateway is <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:52] <iflema> datz obviously those numbers are an example... thats done on the command line
[04:53] <jken146> juan__: http://www.willnichols.me.uk/progs/debpack/ seems like a good place to start
[04:53] <datz> iflema: yes, but where to enter the staic IP?
[04:53] <live_wire> ya, so far it's lookin like a re-install
[04:53] <hlx> /etc/network/interfaces is it not
[04:53] <DasEi> datz : eth0 inet static   <br> address  <IP_ADDRESS>  <br> Netmask <IP_ADDRESS>   (<br> means new line, don't type that in interfaces)
[04:53] <iflema> datz :|
[04:53] <datz> DasEi: thanks
[04:54] <DasEi> datz: and leave that auto eth0 in front
[04:54] <juan__> jken146: lol, i come from these guide, it explain using an example of a package that already exist on the ubuntu repo and build, i want to package .ttf and its not in the repo
[04:54] <DasEi> !ttf | juan__
[04:55] <juan__> omg
[04:55] <jken146> juan__: If you just want to install a font... yes
[04:55] <juan__> no
[04:55] <DasEi> ah, sry
[04:55] <datz> DasEi: I'll try it thanks
[04:55] <juan__> i know whats a font, and how to install them
[04:55] <By_Your_Command> woobie woobie...
[04:56] <jken146> juan__: Right. So you want to build a package to distribute fonts?
[04:56] <metalf8801> I messed up virtualbox by installing both the ose and the newest edition which isn't open and now I'm getting a error message that says to reinstall the kernel module by executing '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'  but when I try that it says "sudo: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: command not found" if anyone has any ideas of what I should try next that would be great
[04:56] <juan__> i try to start with REVU, but too much different from Guides to my situation
[04:56] <live_wire> ok, when done editing (e) a line in grub2.. how do you save it?
[04:57] <jken146> live_wire: In which file?
[04:57] <juan__> i know how to package, but usually i package .ttf, wallpapers, .exe, and such
[04:57] <DasEi> metalf8801: wrong chan here ; de-install one , then see FAQ's on vb-homepage
[04:57] <jken146> juan__: So what do you want to achieve?
[04:57] <arand> juan__: #ubuntu-motu is more specifically for packaging help (although not as busy).
[04:58] <juan__> i come from #ubuntu-motu back to here :/
[04:58] <pckt__> hi
[04:58] <live_wire> jken146:  the first option to boot in to ubuntu 9.10
[04:58] <iflema> juan_ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete
[04:58] <metalf8801> DasEi I only have the newer version of virtualbox installed and it was working before
[04:58] <DasEi> juan__: so you got a font.. whre is it located ?
[04:59] <juan__> DasEi: my disk ATM
[04:59] <live_wire> i need to erase vga=795 only it doesn't save it
[04:59] <juan__> DasEi: and i got in a .DEB
[04:59] <DasEi> juan__: so you got a package already then
[04:59] <juan__> DasEi: but REVU only allows upload sources, how to upload sources from a .TTF files?, lol
[05:00] <jken146> juan__: I really don't understand what your goal is.
[05:00] <juan__> jken146, DasEi : you know REVU?
[05:00] <antonius> does the lucid daily build come with yahoo toolbar?
[05:00] <jken146> !grub2 | live_wire
[05:01] <DasEi> juan__: no, a packaging tool ?
[05:01] <live_wire> thanks
[05:01] <juan__> !revu > DasEi
[05:01] <juan__> sort of
[05:01] <juan__> or process or whatever
[05:02] <jken146> juan__: yeah ... it's a tool for reviewing package changes ...
[05:02] <datz> DasEi: config: http://pastebin.com/f607d712d  error : http://pastebin.com/m7fe91371
[05:02] <DasEi> juan__: I have no touch with that, I'd set up a ppa and ask people to check it
[05:02] <datz> could have put em in one paste I guess
[05:02] <Berzerker> anyone here use thunderbird 3.0 (shredder) on ubuntu?
[05:03] <DasEi> datz: remove the '# in line 21 interfaces, try again
[05:03] <datz> ok
[05:03] <juan__> i got .TTF, and .DEB with .TTFs that install perfectly,i try to join REVU,REVU says sources only(.dsc, .diff.gz, .changes, and such),PPA dont work for me
[05:04] <jken146> juan__: Why are you trying to join REVU?
[05:04] <tonyyarusso> juan__: REVU is for reviewing source packages, nothing else.
[05:04] <jken146> juan__: You have a package thet contains a font. What are you trying to do with it?
[05:04] <juan__> jken146: to make my packaging work avaliable to everyone, to fix "need-packaging bugs"
[05:05] <tonyyarusso> juan__: If you actually made a package, you have the source.
[05:05] <juan__> tonyyarusso: how you get the build sources of .TTF files?
[05:06] <rumpsy> moin moin
[05:06] <tonyyarusso> juan__: That hardly even makes sense at all.  You said you *already* had a package, did you not?
[05:06] <juan__> maybe a guide for non-buildable files is missing on the WIKI...
[05:06] <By_Your_Command> Cylons stole it
[05:07] <juan__> i already have a package
[05:07] <datz> DasEi: Ignoring Unknown interface inet=inet <br> Ignoring unknow interface static=static
[05:07] <datz> now only lo comes up with ifconfig
[05:07] <DasEi> datz:see above..., second, pastie in progress
[05:07] <jken146> juan__: So, do you want to have this package included in Ubuntu?
[05:07] <datz> ok
[05:07] <By_Your_Command> !toot
[05:08] <By_Your_Command> what the heck
[05:08] <juan__> i got .deb with the .ttf files inside, install perfectly on ubuntu, but packaging guide ask for many things that you cant do with non-buildable files
[05:08] <tonyyarusso> juan__: okay, how did you get the TTF file "inside" the .deb file?
[05:09] <juan__> yes, i want to fix "need-packaging" bugs
[05:09] <juan__> using a template and making the .deb
[05:09] <DasEi> datz: http://pastebin.com/m17b3f490
[05:10] <bazhang> By_Your_Command, stay on topic and no more nonsense factoids
[05:10] <juan__> fonts,it only ask for ubuntu-standad meta-package, and a post-install script that refresh font cache
[05:10] <tonyyarusso> juan__: what template, and "making" how?
[05:12] <juan__> template are directory and files edited manually
[05:12] <juan__> since a .deb its just a compressed file
[05:12] <tonyyarusso> juan__: um, that's not how building a deb works...
[05:12] <hlx> i think he wants to reverse engineer one, or extract it
[05:13] <tonyyarusso> juan__: why don't you download the source package for an existing font set and analyze that?
[05:13] <juan__> /home/juan/base_tmp/DEBIAN/control rules postinst
[05:13] <Speedy2> Hey all.  Is there a program that lets you interactively configure Upstart & start-up services?
[05:13] <rumpsy> datz: Can i help you
[05:13] <DasEi> !bum | Speedy2
[05:13] <Speedy2> DasEi: Does BUM actually works properly with Upstart?  I know of it.
[05:13] <juan__> tonyyarusso: i know, but i dont find any guide that explain me how to package with non-buildable non-on-repos files
[05:14] <DasEi> Speedy2: yes, least the services it offers
[05:14] <datz> DasEi: guess what, everything is working fine. Thanks alot
[05:14] <DasEi> datz: welcome
[05:14] <rumpsy> datz: Try this, i made a small change in that, i added a indent in that, http://pastie.org/817752
[05:14] <datz> I just wonder why I can't edit my GUI network interface
[05:14] <datz> ok
[05:14] <tonyyarusso> juan__: what do you mean "non-buildable"?  They all work the same, just with different rules files.
[05:14] <juan__> cant build a .TTF file
[05:15] <tonyyarusso> juan__: you don't need to...
[05:15] <juan__> REVU says build sources only
[05:15] <tonyyarusso> juan__: That's correct.
[05:15] <juan__> im confused
[05:16] <DasEi> datz: the gui thingy is network-manager, the pro solution is interfaces (oversides nw-mnger)
[05:16] <DasEi> overrides*
[05:16] <datz> true
[05:16] <datz> but not as easy to use. :P
[05:17] <Berzerker> anyone here use thunderbird 3.0 (shredder) on ubuntu?
[05:17] <hlx> you got your feet wet. when you do it a couple times it becomes easy
[05:17] <DasEi> datz: depends on your needs
[05:17] <zeltak> hya
[05:17] <Izinucs> Berzerker: yep
[05:17] <jken146> juan__: Get hold of the source for an existing font package and look at where the TTF or OTF files go in there..
[05:17] <zeltak> just got a 2tb drive but gparted only sees 1tb..anyone have any experience with this?
[05:18] <Speedy2> zeltak: What does fdisk -l show for it?
[05:18] <juan__> jken146: i already do that long time ago
[05:18] <juan__> jken146: i learned like that, umpacking packages
[05:18] <juan__> make a base clone
[05:19] <flah> hi all... i'm a current mac user thinking about jumping to ubuntu... any suggestions on dual core 4gb ram 320 gb 256/512 vram laptops ... something as durable as a mac (my last two mac laptops lasted me 4-5 years)
[05:19] <Berzerker> Izinucs, have you gotten a good way to make it minimize to tray?
[05:19] <zeltak> Speedy2: Disk /dev/sdb: 2000.4 GB,<PHONE_NUMBER>160 bytes
[05:19] <datz> DasEi: yes it does. btw, new changes are working. Was it just spacing?
[05:19] <juan__> and modify and recompress
[05:19] <brenden__> ..
[05:19] <jken146> juan__: Right, ok, so your only problem is uploading it to REVU, correct?
[05:19] <datz> otherwise I didn't see the change
[05:19] <DasEi> datz: no, but typos
[05:19] <Speedy2> zeltak: Did you try gparted from a sysreccd?  That's what I'd suggest.
[05:19] <datz> humm
[05:19] <datz> I wonder if I pasted the same thing twice or something
[05:19] <juan__> .deb = AR compressed file with TAR inside with GZ inside, kinda triple compression
[05:19] <hlx> datz: you had an area that was something to the liking of 'auto inet static' that should have been 'auto eth0'
[05:19] <Izinucs> Berzerker: no.. haven't really tried.. even Evolution didn't do that for me.. Korganizer in kde does though..
[05:19] <zeltak> k will try that, thx Speedy2
[05:19] <DasEi> datz: # in front of line is a comment, no cammand
[05:20] <DasEi> o*
[05:20] <jake__> whats a good deb repo other than getdeb?
[05:20] <DasEi> jake__: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources
[05:20] <jken146> juan__: Yes, but what is the actual problem you're having?
[05:20] <pkm4o93> juan__: isnt it wasteful to compress things three times? or are the compressions different
[05:21] <norbert> hi, where do I get libguicast from? (I tried apt-file search and apt-cache search, no results; also tried Google, no pointers)
[05:21] <datz> DasEi: ah ok
[05:21] <datz> that's why I didn't notice it
[05:21] <juan__> jken146: MOTU says follow guide, gime that files, follow rules, i dont understand the Guide,cant make the requested files
[05:22] <datz> I commented out everything from earlier. :P
[05:22] <DasEi> datz : eth0 inet static   <br> address  <IP_ADDRESS>  <br> Netmask <IP_ADDRESS>   (<br> means new line, don't type that in interfaces)
[05:22] <jken146> juan__: Which part of which guide?
[05:22] <juan__> jken146: because not a program, not buildable, not on repos, not patch, or diff or whatever
[05:22] <DasEi> datz: have   a look now and check <br>
[05:23] <juan__> jken146: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Basic
[05:23] <juan__> apt-get source hello-debhelper
[05:23] <jken146> juan__: OK, what part of that don't you understand?
[05:23] <juan__> lol
[05:24] <KamusHadenes>  please, what capture cards and cameras do you recommend for an internal cftv server
[05:24] <juan__> apt-get source /home/myfont.ttf LOL!
[05:24] <KamusHadenes> ?*
[05:25] <jken146> juan__: apt-get source  will download the source package (as opposed to the binary package) to the current directory
[05:25] <crawler> I have an Ubuntu question.  Why is Minimize/Maximize disabled for certain windows such as Appearance Preferences?
[05:25] <datz> DasEi: everyting's working fine. I'll leave it alone for now, thanks
[05:25] <juan__> i mean i allways make a Quick'N'Dirty packages, i want to go PRO, and i dont know how
[05:25] <DasEi> datz: was just for you to revise, no changes needed
[05:26] <ircbb> help please?!  After a power failure I cannot start ubuntu. I get to "target filesystem doesn't have /sbin/init" and the screen says "(initramfs)".
[05:26] <juan__> jken146: the TTF is on my disk, not on repo, how suppose to continue the Guide?
[05:26] <arand> juan__: Have a look at the source for ubuntu-artwork, that's an example package with no building binaries I think.
[05:26] <hlx> question, for python, whats the best UI designer out there? Glade? Or just do it by hand in emacs
[05:26] <datz> DasEi: got ya. I see the diff from that above
[05:26] <juan__> arand: downloading
[05:27] <tonyyarusso> juan__: um, you're reading the part of the guide that's for instroducing you to the concept, and you're suppose to follow along exactly, but trying to jump ahead to building your own package from scratch several steps later.
[05:27] <jken146> juan__: That's an example, to teach you about the structure of Ubuntu packages. They want you to get a real official package and take it apart.   Any insight as to why this might be?
[05:30] <hlx> Bill gates has crabs.
[05:30] <rww> ubottu: ot | hlx
[05:30] <hlx> got it, sorry
[05:30] <datz> DasEi: I got the html ;)
[05:30] <rww> crawler: you also ;P
[05:30] <bazhang> crawler, that is not appropriate here, please stop immediately
[05:30] <datz> haha the <cr> not so much
[05:31] <DasEi> heh :-D, anything additional ? else have fun
[05:31] <hlx> repost, question: is glade the choice for python ui development? or is there a better alternative? or just program it by hand
[05:31] <rww> hlx: If you don't get an answer in here, you might want to try asking in #python.
[05:31] <hlx> oh that is a channel
[05:31] <hlx> will do
[05:31] <rww> yeah
[05:32] <hlx> bleh, +r, how do i register

[05:33] <droid7> what's the package name of the application that installs language support?
[05:33] <rickbee> can i get help with initramfs
[05:33] <KamusHadenes>  please, what capture cards and cameras do you recommend for an internal cftv server?
[05:36] <DasEi> rickbee: details ?
[05:36] <no-name> hi is thier a way to have my machine automatically turn itself off at a specific time?
[05:37] <DasEi> no-name: man shutdown tells you
[05:37] <hlx> ^ will that activate in sleep?
[05:38] <DasEi> hlx: yes and no, as it sends broadcasts disrupting sleep
[05:38] <jken146> no-name: shutdown will do that, e.g. sudo shutdown -h 15:45

[05:40] <septim> why my ubuntu theme doesnt apply properly?
[05:40] <rumpsy> septim: what theme you selected?
[05:40] <septim> all of them
[05:40] <septim> metacity draws properly
[05:40] <droid7> septim: do you have the proper gtk-engines installed?
[05:41] <rumpsy> _O
[05:41] <septim> but gtk doesnt change anything
[05:41] <septim> gtk-engines?
[05:41] <rickbee> i had a power failure with ubuntu karmic. now when I boot I reach the loading screen but /sbin/init is not found and (initramfs) comes up.
[05:41] <droid7> septim: what's the theme name?
[05:41] <septim> darkmenus
[05:42] <droid7> hm sounds like the default new wave theme
[05:42] <DasEi> rickbee: you'll have to rebuild initramfs
[05:42] <droid7> should be working by default
[05:42] <septim> yup
[05:42] <rumpsy> septim: At first choose, human, give few seconds to load everthing, and choose, dark menus
[05:42] <septim> ill try
[05:42] <rickbee> DasEi: any pointers on how to do that?
[05:42] <darolu> septim: what version of Ubuntu are you running?

[05:45] <DasEi> rickbee: I used to use a live cd and chrooted in the broken sys, then used sudo update-initramfs, option I'd have too look up myself
[05:45] <DasEi> !who
[05:46] <DasEi> rickbee: have a live cd handy ?
[05:46] <rickbee> how can i tell if the superblock is bad? or what is wrong if only some partitions are mountable?
[05:46] <rickbee> DasEi: yes I have the live cd
[05:46] <DasEi> rickbee: (e2)fsck
[05:46] <DasEi> rickbee: boot into that, come back here
[05:47] <DasEi> (on the faulty comp)
[05:47] <rickbee> DasEi: ok, thanks
[05:47] <paotzu> rickbee: if it is ext3 you can use backup superblock
[05:47] <paotzu> rickbee: do dumpe2fs /dev/sda1 | grep superblock or dev/whatever
[05:48] <paotzu> rickbee: assuming it is not mounted
[05:49] <MaKaTiGuY> is there an ultimate guide to install mac os x using virtualbox under ubuntu 9.10 host?
[05:49] <DreaDy_HK> hi brothers i have a problem when install imspector say this error "imspector.h:40:25: error: openssl/ssl.h: No existe el fichero ó directorio
[05:49] <DreaDy_HK> "
[05:50] <DasEi> MaKaTiGuY: wrong chan, try their HP or ##vbox
[05:50] <Izinucs> MaKaTiGuY: providing information on that is against the CoC, Mac's eula, and general morality.. you'll have to find your answers elsewhere.
[05:50] <septim> rumpsy: clearlooks failed, newwave failed, basically everything failed coz
[05:51] <paotzu> plus OS X is weak
[05:51] <mezquitale> DreaDy_HK, youre trying to install an application named "imspector"?  It looks like you dont have the openssl header file ssl.h
[05:51] <rumpsy> septim: what?
[05:51] <Berzerker> Izinucs, look up minimizetotray plus, author added linux support, works pretty well
[05:51] <DreaDy_HK> openssl ?
[05:52] <septim> rumpsy: ubuntu theme doesnt work
[05:52] <DreaDy_HK> fil ssl.h in the folder of program ?
[05:52] <acidtonic> so I was a dolt and forgot to turn on gatewayports before trying a remote forward from a machine at a friends, now my public server is only listening on localhost. What is the netcat usage to expose a new listening port and redirect it to a loopback listening port?
[05:52] <DreaDy_HK> i dont have a file ssl.h in the folder of program
[05:52] <MaKaTiGuY> ok, thanks
[05:52] <Izinucs> Berzerker: ah cool.. although I don't have a reference on this computer.. there's also a nice plugin for importing vcards.. something thunderbird has lacked forever
[05:52] <rumpsy> septim: i think, you installed some external themes, like morphing ubuntu to look like mac or windows
[05:52] <Berzerker> yeah I only use it for mail though, got my exchange account for my contacts/calendar :P
[05:52] <septim> yup
[05:52] <DasEi> DreaDy_HK: some more words.. you try to configure ssh ?
[05:53] <rumpsy> septim: o_O
[05:53] <septim> rumpsy: yup
[05:53] <septim> hate it!
[05:53] <DreaDy_HK> sorry brother i dont understand of the configure ssh
[05:53] <DreaDy_HK> how configure ssh ?
[05:53] <paotzu> imspector is an IM client, not ssh. ssl is needed to do jabber.
[05:53] <rumpsy> septim: reset gnome settings may help you
[05:53] <DasEi> !ssh | DreaDy_HK
[05:53] <septim> rumpsy: how to reset gnome settings
[05:53] <infid> i just plugged my ipod touch into my computer but rhythmbox doesn't seem to be recognizing it. how can i get songs onto it in ubuntu?
[05:54] <mezquitale> DasEi, no, he wants to install imspector, the depending he's getting is that openssl/ssl.h doesnt exist
[05:54] <rumpsy> septim: try that, and my advice is don't go for anyother themes expect themes provided by ubuntu
[05:54] <rumpsy> septim: open terminal and goto home dir
[05:54] <paotzu> DreaDy_HK: you might need sudo aptitude install openssl   or openssl-dev
[05:54] <DasEi> mezquitale: thanks
[05:55] <rickbee> DasEi: e2fsck -  should I use -p (automatic reapair)?
[05:55] <DreaDy_HK> i need install a ssh client in my computer ?
[05:55] <mezquitale> infid, it's recognizing it, you just dont know how to use rhythmbox, use amarok and look at the forums on how to do that, there's plenty of information in the forum
[05:55] <DreaDy_HK> i have install openssl in my computer brother
[05:55] <septim> rumpsy: and look for .themes
[05:55] <DasEi> rickbee: yes.. second, open a trml in live cd...
[05:55] <DreaDy_HK> i check in synaptic and i have install
[05:55] <rickysmart> Hey, anyone knows how i get to the irc channel of ubuntu in spanish?
[05:56] <infid> mezquitale: actually i'm now reading that ipod touches have to be jailbroken for ubuntu to recognize them :(
[05:56] <Izinucs> rickysmart: #ubuntu-es
[05:56] <bazhang> rickysmart, /join #ubuntu-es
[05:56] <rumpsy> septim: to reset gnome settings, there is a simple way, follow me if you want
[05:56] <DasEi> rickbee: mount                     <<make sure hd isn't mounted, get device-identifiers
[05:56] <mezquitale> DasEi, I meant to say DreaDy_HK has a failed dependency, it says openssl/ssl.h does not exist
[05:56] <septim> rumpsy: ok
[05:56] <rickysmart> great men, thanks!
[05:56] <rumpsy> septim: open terminal and goto home dir
[05:56] <septim> rumpsy: ok
[05:56] <DasEi> mezquitale: got it, but I don't know imspector
[05:56] <ja660k> where is the pear module directory in ubuntu??
[05:56] <mezquitale> infid, that sucks big time, I was able to use my niece's ipod without problems in my ubuntu machine
[05:57] <rumpsy> septim: rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity
[05:57] <rumpsy> septim: ^^ command
[05:57] <DarthSteedious> Anyone know of a channel for beginner C programming
[05:57] <bazhang> infid, there is a PPA for ifuse
[05:57] <Izinucs> infid: you can thank apple for that.. :(
[05:57] <septim> rumpsy: done
[05:57] <infid> mezquitale: yeah normal ipods work, just not the touch
[05:57] <rumpsy> septim: restart your GMD to take effect
[05:57] <jameschu> hello
[05:57] <DreaDy_HK> i have install openssl in my computer
[05:57] <DasEi> rickbee: so just one /root and one /swap ?
[05:58] <jameschu> who use iodbc?
[05:58] <paotzu> DreDY_HK: try sudo aptitude install libssl-dev
[05:58] <rickbee> DasEi: e2fsck -p in liveCD terminal does not seem to do anything. I'm guessing to use -c (check for badblocks and list them) next.
[05:58] <xtreme-zone> hi there, can someone tell me why I, as root, can't save the nvidia-settings after configuration ?
[05:58] <paotzu> DreaDY_HK: for generic
[05:58] <rumpsy> septim: logoff and login
[05:58] <Izinucs> DreaDy_HK: sudo apt-get install ssh will install client and server of openssl
[05:58] <Izinucs> *ssh
[05:58] <DasEi> rickbee: nah, answer my questions, give feedback, again :
[05:58] <DreaDy_HK> i need the client open ssl for run imspector ?
[05:58] <DasEi> rickbee: mount                     <<make sure hd isn't mounted, get device-identifiers
[05:58] <paotzu> DreaDy_HK: it is requesting the -dev library
[05:59] <DasEi> rickbee: so just one /root and one /swap ?
[05:59] <DasEi> /dev/..??
[05:59] <mezquitale> infid, i guess your first quest is to jailbrake your phone
[05:59] <DreaDy_HK> but to install this librery the system trash 38 files of my sistem
[05:59] <DasEi> rickbee: sudo fdisk -l to list your partitons
[05:59] <paotzu> DreaDY_HK: oh it wants to remove? ok
[06:00] <DreaDy_HK> paotzu
[06:00] <DreaDy_HK> for install dev library the system trash 38 files of my system
[06:00] <ja660k> hello, what directory is the php pear modules in?
[06:00] <rickbee> DasEi: output is rather long to type here. mostly "none on...". I do not see hda* or sda* that I would expect for harddrive partitions, if that's the significant part
[06:01] <DasEi> rickbee: YES
[06:01] <DasEi> rickbee: sudo fdisk -l to list your partitons
[06:01] <DasEi> i*
[06:01] <paotzu> DreaDY_HK: which packages does it want to remove?

[06:03] <DarthSteedious> thanks
[06:04] <paotzu> DreaDY_HK: good luck

[06:04] <qZi> How can I configure my Kumbuntu to use dual 24" screens ?
[06:04] <DreaDy_HK> i save a copy of a files trash
[06:05] <DreaDy_HK> yes, i go to compile the program and this compile ;)
[06:06] <rickbee> DasEi: sudo fdisk - l: /dev/sda1,sda2,sda3,sda5,sda6
[06:06] <DasEi> rickbee: can you pastebin it if unsure which ?
[06:06] <DasEi> !paste
[06:07] <DasEi> rickbee: anyway, syntax is : sudo e2fsck -p /dev/sda1     .. and so on, it only checks valid extd's
[06:08] <rickbee> Dasei: "pastebin: command not found". I don't know what !paste means. Root should be sd2 (extended) or sda6 (Linux)
[06:08] <DasEi> rickbee: sda6 likely
[06:09] <rickbee> So... sudo e2fsck -p /dev/sda6?
[06:09] <DasEi> rickbee: to paste, call http://paste.ubuntu.com  in browser, copy output from trm in there, add name, press post, give url from browser in here (next time)
[06:10] <DasEi> rickbee: yes
[06:12] <Jordan_U> jazz, Same question to you :)
[06:13] <seanbrystone2> is there a Puppy Linux channel?
[06:13] <hyperstream> !mp3 | Drakonslayor
[06:15] <DasEi> rickbee: finished ?
[06:15] <jazz> Jordan_U,  what happened?
[06:16] <ed10> Hi I need help.I have my p.c partitioned (xp & ubuntu)I now cant get my windows to boot up.I would like to get access to my programmes on windows and mount them in ubuntu.I can see the programmes sitting there when I look in the hard drive when running ubuntu,but how do I mount them in ubuntu?I need outlook express for example to get email files and contacts etc.Thanks in advance.
[06:16] <rickbee> DasEi: yes, was trying to connect to irc on the other computer to paste. Anyways, I got "recovering journal", "Clearing orphane inode..." and "cleann..."
[06:16] <rickbee> DasEi: Sounds reassuring
[06:17] <DasEi> rickbee: so it finished without errors ?
[06:17] <rickbee> DasEi: I think so. Was that it?
[06:17] <Jordan_U> jazz, What do you mean?
[06:18] <DasEi> rickbee: unless you want to re-write initramfs, can give it a try, else got to boot in live again
[06:18] <darolu> ed10: You can run them that way, Ubuntu is not Windows, some programs can be run with Wine (a windows emulator); you can try restoring Windows and then reinstalling GRUB to get both systems functional.
[06:18] <jazz> Jordan_U,  you wrote up top same question to u,
[06:18] <Jordan_U> jazz, You asked two hours ago if I was still around
[06:18] <darolu> ed10: you can't* my bad
[06:19] <jazz> Jordan_U,  ha lol yes i did. to say thanks for the help if fixed my hhd
[06:19] <ed10> Thanks,darolu.
[06:19] <Jordan_U> jazz, np
[06:19] <jazz> Jordan_U,  had to go to bios and change boot order
[06:20] <rickbee> DasEi: Sucess! That you so much!
[06:20] <DasEi> ed10: for almost every win app there is a linux derivative, else check out virtual machines to have two OS'es at the same time
[06:20] <DasEi> rickbee: and don't fly away, nice
[06:21] <darolu> seanbrystone2: http://www.puppylinux.org/wikka/PuppyLinuxIRC
[06:21] <seanbrystone2> darolu, thanks i found it :)
[06:21] <septim_> rumpsy: thanks man, but it still doesnt work
[06:21] <rumpsy> what?
[06:22] <septim_> rumpsy: maybe it has sumthin to do with compiz?
[06:22] <septim_> rumpsy: reset gconf
[06:22] <rumpsy> septim_: what theme are you using now!
[06:23] <rumpsy> septim_: After that command, everything should appear with default
[06:23] <septim_> rumpsy: after resetting, now its default
[06:24] <rumpsy> septim_: oh, so what you want now!, more than human theme?
[06:24] <yifan> Hello, is anybody using an Nvidia Quadro graphic card? Thanks for ping me back :)
[06:24] <septim_> rumpsy: nope. now still the same problem with before.
[06:24] <kgs_> Anyone else here notice that cpufreq-selector hangs?
[06:24] <rumpsy> septim_: still can't you change theme?
[06:25] <septim_> rumpsy: example: highinverse theme when activated, everything looks clearlooks again
[06:25] <mezquitale> !anybody | yifan
[06:26] <rumpsy> septim_: i too had the same problem, but solved after that command
[06:27] <septim_> rumpsy: anyway, thanks for the help man. appreciate it. ill find out anyway sooner or later
[06:27] <rumpsy> septim_: change theme with desktop effects !, let we check i that way
[06:27] <rumpsy> in*
[06:27] <rumpsy> !compiz-fusion
[06:29] <knuck> ? pw lock folders?
[06:29] <WAawaawEE> i lost my bottom toolbar =[
[06:29] <WAawaawEE> how do i get it back lol
[06:29] <WAawaawEE> gnome\ubuntu
[06:29] <septim_> WAawaawEE: right click top toolbar
[06:30] <WAawaawEE> whats the bottom one called
[06:30] <WAawaawEE> trying to find it on the list
[06:30] <nanotube> WAawaawEE: right click on existing bar, and select "new panel", and configure it as you like
[06:30] <septim_> WAawaawEE: new panel
[06:30] <interrupt> anyone using cooliris in karmic?
[06:30] <WAawaawEE> yeah im in the add to panel screen
[06:30] <WAawaawEE> i need my bottom toolbar back
[06:30] <knuck> how do i change my root pw?
[06:31] <DasEi> knuck: sudo passwd root
[06:31] <rumpsy> knuck: you should not do that
[06:31] <WAawaawEE> why?
[06:31] <DasEi> knuck: but be aware of /etc/sudoers in look of sudo
[06:32] <rumpsy> knuck: supplying a root password, is like a big hole in your computer for rats
[06:32] <rww> DasEi: The supported way to edit sudo configuration is "visudo", not editing /etc/sudoers directly.
[06:32] <knuck> there isn't any way to just change it in some system settings or something?
[06:32] <septim_> rumpsy: im going off, thanks anyway man again
[06:33] <darolu> knuck: is safer to use sudo, if you need to be root I'd recomend to do $sudo su
[06:33] <rumpsy> septim_: ) , welcome
[06:33] <DasEi> rww: yess.. :)
[06:33] <knuck> ty
[06:33] <rww> !root | knuck
[06:33] <knuck> nah, i know my password
[06:33] <knuck> i just want to change it
[06:34] <rumpsy> AT first root is not a user
[06:34] <blocky> anyone know of a multitrack mixing program?
[06:34] <rww> rumpsy: yes it is, actually. It's just disabled by default on Ubuntu.
[06:34] <ardchoille> knuck: Changing or enabling the root accountis not supported and makes your system much less secure
[06:34] <knuck> well damn. oh well. is there any way to pw lock specific folders?
[06:34] <ardchoille> you can't brute force a locked root account and you can't brute force a user account without the username and password
[06:34] <rumpsy> rww: That is for safety, and security purpose
[06:34] <aiwa> hey i got a program that won't quit. how do i force a program to quit?
[06:35] <royceremer> you just drop to root shell in recovery mode and $pwchange
[06:35] <DaZ> aiwa: killall -9 name
[06:35] <DasEi> aiwa: sudo killall -9 firefox ,f.e.
[06:35] <Maxima> close is by force
[06:35] <tonyyarusso> knuck: That's what standard file permissions are for.
[06:35] <darolu> knuck: root is like god on your pc, you can use it, but just as you can create it you can destroy it, be aware of that; you can do better than pwd protect folders, assign them permissions try $man chmod
[06:35] <jazz> what is a real good program to record desktop activities?
[06:35] <rumpsy> aiwa: check that processes name in system monitor
[06:35] <DaZ> aiwa: or use xkill, kde has it under ctrl+alt+esc shortcut
[06:35] <rww> ubottu: screencast | jazz
[06:35] <ardchoille> "man who play in root eventually kill tree"
[06:35] <tonyyarusso> knuck: if you need them to stay protected in the event of physical system access, go with any of the numerous encryption options.
[06:36] <royceremer> ardchoille: lol
[06:36] <aiwa> ctrk+alt+esc won't do anything
[06:36] <almark1> Hello I can't seem to get Hardy DVD to mount with apt-cdrom add and its position is in my fstab, says Using CD-ROM mount point /media/cdrom1/

[06:36] <rww> ubottu: dontzap | aiwa
[06:36] <git__> anyone here uses KSplice Uptrack?
[06:36] <DaZ> aiwa: probably because you're not using kde right now.
[06:36] <jazz> ty
[06:37] <git__> why does ubuntu insist on using runlevel 2 for GUI?
[06:37] <knuck> ok, i own this computer. i set up a basic root pw and i'm worried anybody could guess it if they knew me. it was a quick fix after a reformat, and i want to make it something a little more complicated
[06:37] <DaZ> i'm just saying gnome should have shortcut as well
[06:37] <tonyyarusso> git__: That's inherited from the Debian upstream, as has been standard there for eons.
[06:37] <Maxima> how can i load SSA subtitle for mplayer??
[06:37] <darolu> knuck: $sudo passwd root
[06:38] <DasEi> git__: what's the matter with it ?
[06:38] <rumpsy> knuck: instead applying passward to root, apply it for grub.. that may safe
[06:38] <tonyyarusso> darolu: Don't tell people how to do that - if they were informed enough to understand the risks, they'd know how to do it already.
[06:38] <Maxima> it gives me "seek failed"
[06:38] <ardchoille> knuck: The point is, with a locked root account you cannot guess the password, the account is locked and for good reason
[06:39] <DasEi> knuck: or use encryption like pgp or truecrypt for that
[06:39] <Drakonslayor> !mp3
[06:39] <git__> the main problem starting GUI at runlevel 2 is because of video driver
[06:39] <Ronald> Winamp 5.57 paused
[06:39] <knuck> but i know the pw. but i'll encrypt the folder after changing my root with sudo
