[10:57] <Lazyvee> hello everyone! I installed Ubuntu 10.04 (dual boot) and could get online and update using my LAN cable but things got more complicated when I decided to try my Atheros wifi card. Basically what happens is it detects the network but doesn't connect to the internet. I tried 'ndiswrapper -l' in the Terminal but nothing showed so I did 'lspci -nn' to find my card model and the downloaded the...
[10:57] <maxwellian> iflema: No, I mean to remove an entry from the boot menu?
[10:57] <Lazyvee> ...driver I found on http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper. Now that I have this zip file I have a silly question (i'm new to Linux): how do I install the driver?
[10:57] <shanee> hello
[10:57] <burr_> well, can i make my grub prettier?
[10:57] <maxwellian> burr_: I'm just checking into iflema's comment about grub2
[10:57] <iflema> maxwellian one way would be to disable the os prober and add any entries manually.....
[10:58] <jgb> chalcedny: yes it is a command
[10:58] <burr_> well its almost 5 am and im not that committed
[10:58] <iflema> maxwellian nightmare, dont do it
[10:58] <shanee> i have messed up with tftpd-hpa package not removing, i am installing virtualbox now it is not installing due to tftpd-hpa

[10:58] <erUSUL> !ru | traktor
[10:59] <happyaron> Destine: /lea
[10:59] <iflema> maxwellian burr_ the grub menu last a couple of seconds 1. be careful what you select 2. xxx x xxxx
[10:59] <llutz> iflema: maxwellian editing /boot/grub.cfg to delete the entry, but has to be repeated after every change to grub, as the file will be recreated. grub2 sucks
[10:59] <traktor> horosho
[10:59] <chalcedny> i dunno jgb it wanted to copy all my files to the live cd..
 You might need to do modprobe ndiswrapper once it is installed. to install the driver you need to do ndiswrapper -i ******.inf   - the stars meaning the inf driver you have. make sense//
[11:00] <aldin> for channel, answer is gconf-editor -> "/desktop/gnome/interface/menus_have_icons"
[11:00] <shanee> somebody know how to remove this package tftpd-hpa manually
[11:00] <llutz> */boot/grub/grub.cfg
[11:00] <maxwellian> iflema: Sorry, I don't quite understand what you said.
[11:00] <jgb> chalcedny: please prefix messages to me with my nick so I can spot them. you need to CD to a writeable directory before you run the command, thus cd to a directory on the usb drive
[11:01] <shadow_phoenix> hello
[11:02] <shanee> somebody know how to remove this package tftpd-hpa manually
[11:02] <maxwellian> burr_: Were you hinting earlier that you're done for the day?
[11:02] <shadow_phoenix> I'm kind of a newbie to linux, so can anyone tell me how do I make an application available to all users?
[11:02] <erUSUL> shadow_phoenix: all apps you install via normal methods are aviable to all users
[11:02] <shadow_phoenix> I downloaded the aplication and I have it on my user home and I can execute it from there, but I want to make it available to all
[11:02] <maxwellian> !info grub
[11:03] <shadow_phoenix> nope, I didn't install from .deb. There is none available
[11:03] <llutz> shadow_phoenix: copy it to /usr/local/bin
[11:03] <burr_> maxwellian: pretty much, if it happens again i'll work on a permanent fix
[11:03] <chalcedny> jgb if i copy my files to 'desktop' in the live cd - i can get to them later? or which parts will allow that?
[11:03] <erUSUL> shadow_phoenix: if it is a single binary do what llutz said
[11:03] <maxwellian> burr_: K, good luck.
[11:03] <jgb> chalcedny: "desktop" is just your home dir, so no. where does the usb drive get mounted?
[11:04] <llutz> shadow_phoenix: if it is a folder, move it too /opt and create a starter-script at /usr/local/bin for it
[11:04] <ionut> hi. does anyone knows a mp3 cutter (a good one) for ubuntu lucid lynx?
[11:04] <llutz> to*
[11:04] <chalcedny> jgb in a usb slot?
[11:04] <shadow_phoenix> ok, thank you all
[11:04] <steerio> hey all
[11:05] <erUSUL> ionut: mp3 cutter ?
[11:06] <llutz> ionut: mp3splt
[11:06] <maxwellian> Hmmm...I'm running 9.10, but I don't have grub2.
[11:06] <jgb> chalcedny: does it show up in /media/somename?
[11:06] <erUSUL> ionut: i've used shncue to split long mp3 based on cue files
[11:06] <ionut> llutz: where i can find it?
[11:06] <burr_> okay
[11:06] <llutz> info mp3splt | ionut:
[11:06] <burr_> can i make grub2 prettier?
[11:07] <llutz> !info mp3splt | ionut:
[11:07] <burr_> that might be helpful
[11:07] <maxwellian> burr_: Prettier?
[11:07] <burr_> prettier
[11:07] <burr_> like a splash screen
[11:07] <steerio> ubiquity 2.2.24 (on 10.04) exits without saying anything, except for one log line ("log-output -t ubiquity fontconfig-voodoo --auto --force --quiet"). anybody had this issue?
[11:08] <maxwellian> burr_: Are you sure you're using grub2?
[11:08] <ionut> llutz: done, thanks
[11:08] <steerio> exit code is 1
[11:08] <burr_> 10.04 uses grub2 by default, right?
[11:08] <steerio> and no stack trace or anything
[11:08] <maxwellian> burr_: Yes, I believe so.
[11:08] <steerio> burr_: yep, it does
[11:08] <burr_> then yes, im using grub2
[11:09] <engemec> BR repositories with problems? anyone knows?
[11:09] <steerio> burr_: do you have a /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[11:09] <MaRk-I> engemec: another guy had issues with br repos, try changing them
[11:09] <steerio> burr_: if so, not grub 2. if you don't, it's grub2
[11:09] <ionut> llutz: i have installed it, but now where i can find it?
[11:09] <maxwellian> burr_: Look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Splash%20Images%20and%20Theming
[11:10] <llutz> ionut: ".. command line interface to split MP3 and ..." terminal
[11:10] <chalcedny> jgb maybe ask someone who knows more than we do .. i don't think i'm going to get this tonight, i'm too tired
[11:10] <chalcedny> jgb, youv'e been extremely helpful and patient
[11:10] <engemec> MaRK-I, dou you know haw I can get sources.list from PT or other language?
[11:10] <jgb> chalcedny: sure, np
[11:11] <chalcedny> jgb i really appreciate the time you've taken and the work you did :)

[11:13] <xro> hi, i get banned from the debian irc and i don't know why... What can i do to get unbanned?
[11:13] <beppo> hello
[11:13] <beppo> it seems that smbd since i updated to lucid is starting before network starts at boot
[11:14] <erUSUL> xro: ask the #debian operators. we can't do anything. to get a list of said ops -> /msg chanserv access #debian list
[11:14] <beppo> so i need to restart smbd manually to get it work
[11:14] <beppo> how can i set the starting dependency?
[11:14] <beppo> for smbd
[11:14] <llutz> beppo: check the startscripts at /etc/init
[11:14] <erUSUL> beppo: i spect /etc/init/smbd.conf to express the dependency on network
[11:15] <beppo> ini/smbd ?^^
[11:15] <beppo> ah i see
[11:15] <xro> erUSUL, and how to ask him?
[11:15] <beppo> didn't realise such directory exists
[11:15] <Misterio> beppo: init.d/
[11:15] <erUSUL> xro: private chat? maybe debian has an ops channel ? dunno. ask in #freenode too
[11:16] <Lazyvee> hello everyone! I installed Ubuntu 10.04 (dual boot) and could get online and update using my LAN cable but things got more complicated when I decided to try my Atheros wifi card. Basically what happens is it detects the network but doesn't connect to the internet. I tried 'ndiswrapper -l' in the Terminal but nothing showed so I did 'lspci -nn' to find my card model and the downloaded the...
[11:16] <Lazyvee> ...driver I found on http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper. Now that I have this zip file I have a silly question (i'm new to Linux): how do I install the driver?
[11:16] <beppo> not init.d
[11:16] <engemec> MaRK-I, I remember thar ubuntu forum had a page with dinamic php that did give sources.list to you Ubuntu distro and language. Dou you know something about this?
[11:16] <xro> erUSUL, ok thanks for your help
[11:16] <erUSUL> !sources | engemec
[11:16] <llutz> Misterio: /etc/init for upstart-scripts, not init.d (sysv-init)
[11:16] <erUSUL> xro: no problem
[11:17] <Misterio> llutz: Ah okay
[11:17] <burr_> okay changing the splash screen just sounds really complicated
[11:17] <maxwellian> burr_: Hmmm...maybe that's just a bad source.
[11:17] <monokrome> How do I disable pulseaudio??
[11:17] <maxwellian> burr_: Let me look at some other results.
[11:18] <MaRk-I> engemec: no, sorry
[11:18] <beppo> but how can i tell smbd to start after network?
[11:19] <MaRk-I> Lazyvee: http://blog.troyastle.com/2010/05/atheros-ar5212-in-ubuntu-1004-lucid.html
[11:19] <JediMaster> I'm trying to create an xorg.conf file using Xorg -configure but it fails with: "(EE) [drm] No DRICreatePCIBusID symbol" any ideas?
[11:19] <MaRk-I> Lazyvee: also check your wireless chipset
[11:19] <engemec> MaRK-I, thanks! I guess that my server is blocking some repos. I will check with administrator. Thanks a lot.
[11:20] <MaRk-I> engemec: you can try that page and select the faster repo option takes a while but it works and yw
[11:21] <Lazyvee> MaRk-I: chipset is Atheros Communications Inc. AR241
[11:21] <beppo> erUSUL
[11:21] <Lazyvee> Atheros Communications Inc. AR2413
[11:22] <beppo> how can i add the dependency
[11:22] <erUSUL> beppo: really dunno; upstart is stil mystery ro me... seems that smbd only depends on local filesystems being present ...
[11:22] <JediMaster> has anyone had any luck setting up a USB monitor (yes it's power AND video data over USB) on ubuntu?
[11:23] <beppo> :)
[11:23] <beppo> in gentoo it's quite easy syntax^^
[11:23] <erUSUL> beppo: there is a #upstart channe. maybe there
[11:23] <beppo> ah tx fine
[11:25] <engemec> MaRK-I, 2 hours ago, everything was working! I was at home, and now, I'm at work! Because this, I guess that the main problem is the work server and some rule on squid or iptables.
[11:25] <erUSUL> beppo: see the ufw.conf it has three network envents. maybe adding those to smbd does the trick
[11:26] <engemec> MaRK-I, yesterday a I had same problem here! :) Now..... repeating.
[11:26] <MaRk-I> engemec: seems like the server where the mirror is hosted is having problems
[11:27] <MaRk-I> try a different one
[11:28] <erUSUL> engemec: changin mirror is easy in System>Admin...> Software Sources
[11:30] <xro> erUSUL, can you help me a bit more? i tried but to send a message to an admin --> /msg gravity -->  Insufficient arguments for command.
[11:30] <erUSUL> xro: /msg gravity hi! sorry to bother you.
[11:30] <erUSUL> xro: you have to include a msg
[11:31] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: I have the same chipset as you, and I'm not using ndiswrapper.
[11:31] <Aufwind> Sorry, for the question, does somone here uses a mac?
[11:31] <EtherNet> hello
[11:32] <EtherNet> Aufwind, I do, but I don't run linux on it
[11:32] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: what are you using? do you know how to make it work?
[11:32] <xro> erUSUL, thank you again....
[11:32] <zeitsofa> Aufwind: yes as design paperweight
[11:32] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: I'm using the ath5k module.  I'm on 9.10 but I hope it still works on 10.04.
[11:32] <erUSUL> xro: yw
[11:33] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Are you comfortable with the terminal?
[11:33] <Aufwind> EtherNet: Me neither. May I ask you for something? I want to configure a gateway on a mac. But I only know the command for ubuntu. How do I translate this ubuntu command "route add -net <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS> gw >>Here is an IP<< metric 1" into a mac command?
[11:33] <Lazyvee> also, I've just read in an Ubuntu forum that 'sudo modprobe ath5k nohwcrypt' then 'sudo sh -c "echo 'options ath5k nohwcrypt' >/etc/modprobe.d/custom-wireless.conf"' then reboot worked with my chipset
[11:33] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: I don't know what that nohwcrypt stuff is.
[11:34] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: not really, I'm new to Linux, but I'm starting to know how to use it after trying so many lines hehe
[11:34] <MaRk-I> Lazyvee: does it connect without encryption?
[11:35] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Okay, can you do 'ifconfig' and post the output to paste.ubuntu.com?
[11:35] <alteregoa> shaka when the walls fell
[11:35] <Lazyvee> i didn't try without encryption, but someone told me it worked without encryption
[11:36] <Lazyvee> ok
[11:36] <maxwellian> MaRk-I: What do you mean, without encryption?  Without WPA?
[11:36] <beppo> erUSUL
[11:36] <beppo> thx, i will try
[11:36] <MaRk-I> maxwellian: exactly WEP, WPA, WPA2
[11:37] <maxwellian> MaRk-I: I don't have a problem with encryption using ath5k module.  Same chipset.  But I don't know if 10.04 changes things somehow.
[11:37] <beppo> erUSUL see nmbd.conf
[11:37] <beppo> there is written how
[11:38] <MaRk-I> maxwellian: it does if there's bug reports about it
[11:38] <maxwellian> MaRk-I: As always. :)
[11:39] <maxwellian> Bah.  I'm putting off dinner for this and they go and lose their connection on me. :P
[11:40] <alteregoa> maxwellian: are you familiar with the equations?
[11:41] <maxwellian> alteregoa: I'm almost afraid to ask...which equations?
[11:42] <rical> anyone know how I can capture a telnet session to a file?
[11:42] <lwp> i am a newer here
[11:43] <lwp> i am chinese
[11:43] <bullgard4> I have installed the DEB program package »linux-source«. Am I right in believing that installing the package »linux-doc« is thus dispensable?
[11:43] <Dulak> rical: telnet or ssh?  for telnet ttysnoop can do that
[11:45] <rical> Dulak: both would be good but primary telnet
[11:45] <maxwellian> bullgard4: Did you install that manually?
[11:45] <ljsoftnet> lwp: whats ur question?
[11:45] <maxwellian> ljsoftnet: Too late.
[11:45] <ljsoftnet> maxwellian: hehehe didn't see that
[11:46] <bullgard4> maxwellian: I cannot see how this affects the answer to my question.
[11:46] <Dulak> rical: not sure how to dump a ssh session, it's a psuedo tty not a real tty like telnet is
[11:47] <alteregoa> i got a question
[11:47] <Dulak> the answer is 42
[11:47] <bullgard4> !ask | alteregoa
[11:47] <alteregoa> im 17kg on the moon, how much on the earth?
[11:47] <Lazyvee> sorry, kernel panic, couldn't read your last message
[11:48] <maxwellian> bullgard4: I'm only asking for more information about your situation.  I'm surprised that you are so critical of the help you ask for.
[11:48] <bullgard4> alteregoa: Multiply by 7.
[11:48] <alteregoa> are you sure?
[11:48] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Did you post the ifconfig output?
[11:49] <Lazyvee> ah yes, but to some url
[11:49] <alteregoa> is thre any physics channel except ubuntu?
[11:49] <bullgard4> maxwellian: I don't think that there is needed more information.
[11:49] <Lazyvee> and i can't remember the url
[11:49] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Just do it again. :)
[11:49] <MaRk-I> Lazyvee: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com
[11:49] <alteregoa> software is like quantum physics, you never know if it works
[11:50] <bullgard4> !ot | alteregoa
[11:50] <Dulak> Yeah but you can apply statistics and be 99.99% confident it is indeed working.
[11:51] <Lazyvee> thank you
[11:51] <tsimpson> alteregoa: try ##physics
[11:51] <skramer_> I have a problem with WLAN stick on one of my PCs at home
[11:52] <skramer_> I get disconnected and sometimes I'm not able to re-connect unless I restart the system
[11:52] <skramer_> the stick is ZD1211rw
[11:53] <maxwellian> bullgard4: Okay, well if you wait a bit you will probably find someone who is willing to help you in exactly the way you demand to be helped.
[11:53] <Misterio> skramer_: And restarting network-manager?
[11:54] <skramer_> Misterio: CLI? or clicking the icon in panel?
[11:54] <bullgard4> maxwellian: Yes. Thank you.
[11:54] <Dulak> skramer_: replugging the usb wireless doesn't work you have to reboot?
[11:54] <skramer_> Misterio: what makes me wondering is that the LED on USB webcam is flashing while the network gets disconnected...
[11:55] <skramer_> Dulak: replugging does not work, the device will not be recocgnized then...
[11:55] <airtonix> skramer_, do you understand what it means to "restart network manager"  ?
[11:55] <skramer_> airtonix: sudo NetworkManager restart
[11:56] <airtonix> skramer_, and this does nothing ?
[11:56] <Dulak> something on your usb bus is funky, unplug everything from usb and start testing wireless with each usb component attached
[11:56] <skramer_> airtonix: nope
[11:56] <airtonix> skramer_, what driver are you using?
[11:56] <bullgard4> I have installed the DEB program package »linux-source«. Am I right in believing that installing the package »linux-doc« is thus dispensable?
[11:56] <fulldarkness>  how to partition a big file larger than 1G into two or three part?
[11:57] <skramer_> airtonix: zd1211rw
[11:57] <Jimi_Neutral> anyone know of a good irc channel to do with painintg warhammer miniatures?
[11:57] <bullgard4> fulldarkness: It depends on the file type.
[11:57] <Dulak> skramer_, replugging usb should have almost the same effect as a reboot, the fact that it doesn't means one of your usb components is doing something goofy
[11:57] <airtonix> skramer_, ok thats the name of the driver so what device is it on this page : http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/zd1211rw/devices
[11:59] <FloodBot3> !netsplit
[11:59] <skramer_> airtonix: 0586:3410
[11:59] <airtonix> skramer_, try match it with the output you get from lsusb so you can provide the device id
[11:59] <airtonix> nice
[12:00] <Pindakaas> Rhythmbox stalls at 0:00 when trying to play music :(
[12:00] <airtonix> skramer_, ok this information is the minimum you should provide when asking for help with wifi devices,
[12:00] <Pindakaas> after upgrade to 10.4
[12:01] <airtonix> skramer_, at this point i would try the ndiswrapper method
[12:01] <Lazyvee> alright, so ifconfing gave this: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/LGvHvWi2
[12:02] <Dulak> I almost guarantee the problem is another usb device, not the wireless at all
[12:02] <slow-motion> hi
[12:02] <airtonix> skramer_, if you needed monitor mode my suggestion would be that you should research proven chipsets before buying them.
[12:02] <Dulak> But you know do what you like.
[12:02] <skramer_> Dulak: I suspect another USB device as well
[12:02] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Okay, try 'sudo modprobe ath5k'
[12:03] <skramer_> Dulak: because I have exactly same stick on other PC in LAN & already switched them between PCs
[12:03] <skramer_> Dulak: but still one one PC it works & on the other I got the problems
[12:04]  * JediMaster cheers for ubuntu running on a USB monitor!
[12:04] <Dulak> skramer_: that's easy to test, just run wireless with 1 other device attached at a time till the problem repeats, whatever other device is plugged in when it happens is the problem
[12:04] <JediMaster> had to get 2.6.35 kernel though, and the touchscreen isn't calibrated (goes to top left if you touch it)
[12:05] <hrw> hi
[12:05] <steerio> hm
[12:05] <hrw> someone knows why my networkmanager on my laptop (kubuntu 10.04) decided to not manage eth0/wlan0 at all?
[12:05] <steerio> upgraded the system and ubiquity (2.2.24) still does not start. there's no error message whatsoever. anyone experienced this?
[12:05] <steerio> system is 10.04
[12:05] <zamba> hrw: it's tired of all the porn you're downloading? :)
[12:06] <hrw> zamba: nice try but thats not that D:
[12:06] <skramer_> Dulak: hmm... perhaps it is the Wacom tablet since the problem existed before I installed the MS webcam..
[12:06] <skramer_> Dulak: don't think it is the keyboard...
[12:06] <zamba> hrw: hehe, mine quit for that reason :)
[12:06] <airtonix> skynet
[12:06] <Dulak> hrw: did you mess with /etc/network/interfaces at all?
[12:06] <steerio> ubiquity is python, so it should die with a stack trace, shouldn't it?
[12:06]  * rautamiekka rautamiekka came back
[12:07] <hrw> Dulak: nope
[12:07]  * karmic-koala says hi to everyone
[12:07] <hrw> "dhclient eth0" works so I have network there
[12:07] <maxwellian> hrw: You say "decided" past tense.  Is this a recent change?
[12:07] <Dulak> hrw: check that file any interface listed in there is not managed by networkmanager that's all I got
[12:08] <hrw> maxwellian: I booted that laptop first time since uds
[12:09] <hrw> Dulak: only loopback in /e/n/interfaces
[12:09] <maxwellian> hrw: Sorry, uds?
[12:10] <xro> hi, i would like to add a new HD on on of my server... (move /var on the new HD)... can you check the way i will use? --> http://dpaste.com/215037/
[12:10] <hrw> maxwellian: Ubuntu Developers Summit - was in start of may
[12:10] <hrw> http://pastebin.com/cM8ZQqr4 is nm-tool output
[12:10] <JediMaster> can anyone give me a hand calibrating a touchscreen?
[12:10] <hrw> JediMaster: use xinput-calibrator (no idea is it in ubuntu)
[12:11] <Lazyvee> keep freezing but i'm back again, so here's the resutl for ifconfig: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/LGvHvWi2
[12:11] <JediMaster> hrw, I can see xinput, but no -calibrator
[12:12] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: I saw that thanks.  Can you please run 'sudo modprobe ath5k'
[12:12] <hrw> JediMaster: http://github.com/tias/xinput_calibrator
[12:12] <maxwellian> hrw: Did you install anything during the summit?
[12:12] <erUSUL> xro: why ext3 and no ext4 ? the move data part does not looks right. you would en up with /var/var/...
[12:13] <hrw> maxwellian: maybe. now I am upgrading it to maverick and will check how it will work
[12:13] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: it gives... nothing
[12:13] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: That's okay.  Now do ifconfig and repost.
[12:13] <xro> erUSUL, my server use ext3 now... it's rigth move /var in / --> /var....   and the part in the fstab is rigth?
[12:14] <maxwellian> hrw: Check /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf
[12:14] <hrw> ok
[12:14] <erUSUL> xro: yes. try to use uuid instead of /dev/sdxx
[12:15] <erUSUL> !uuid

[12:15] <maxwellian> hrw: Just going off a forum posting, changing that managed=false to true might help.
[12:16] <hrw> maxwellian: thx, will check after upgrade
[12:16] <maxwellian> hrw: Look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7041625&postcount=4
[12:17] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Hmmm, that modprobe didn't seem to make a difference.
[12:18] <hrw> ~hail apt-cacher-ng
[12:18] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Can you double check the modprobe worked by typing 'lsmod | grep ath'
[12:20] <maxwellian> hrw: I'm not familiar with that, what does it do?
[12:20] <hrw> maxwellian: its proxy for APT
[12:21] <maxwellian> hrw: Neat, is it easy to set up?
[12:21] <hrw> maxwellian: I have few machines + few chroots
[12:21] <hrw> maxwellian: easy
[12:21] <barfster> I installed postfixadmin and when I do postconf -a it tells me dovecot and cyrus, but not dovecot SASL, how to fix?
[12:21] <tesla555> hi all...can anyone tell me how to parse a HTML content with unix command(shell)...like i have a html file....i need to parse the content of <td> tag.....
[12:22] <maxwellian> hrw: Cool.  So it makes downloading software on your several machines a bit quicker, I suspect. :P
[12:22] <erUSUL> xro: step 14 i would do with pax ( sudo aptitude install pax ) « cd /mnt/first/var/ && sudo pax -rw . /mnt/new/ »
[12:22] <hrw> maxwellian: the only thing which suxx is 100Mbps ethernet in my laptop... previous one had 1GbE
[12:22] <hrw> maxwellian: chroots on proxy machine reports even 23MB/s download
[12:22] <barfster> tesla555: pipe it through tidy, then parse it using XSLT
[12:22] <maxwellian> hrw: Wow!  Awesome. :)
[12:22] <hrw> maxwellian: also lot of bandwith saving
[12:23] <erUSUL> tesla555: you can not parse html with unix text utilities... you can sort of make a hack but...
[12:23] <Pindakaas> lol, culprit was pidgin embedded video plugin
[12:23] <wookienz> hi erUSUL me again!
[12:23] <xro> erUSUL, is it a better way? and why?
[12:23] <maxwellian> hrw: How does it deal with something like apt-get update?
[12:23] <maxwellian> hrw: Shouldn't that always be fresh, not cached?
[12:23] <erUSUL> xro: pax is efficient your mv command would have got you /var/var/as i said
[12:23] <erUSUL> wookienz: hi
[12:24] <tesla555> barfster: i get content of a php page using curl command...so i need to parse it...can i call tidy in a .sh file
[12:24] <hrw> maxwellian: it checks does it need to be fetched iirc
[12:24] <xro> erUSUL, ok... i'll try do it now... thank you
[12:24] <maxwellian> hrw: Hmm, okay thanks.  I'm sure there are docs on it, I'd just not heard of it before.  Thanks for the tip.
[12:25] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Still there?
[12:25] <wookienz> erUSUL: not sure if you remember - i was having raid 0 issues - using a fakeraid bios build instad of software raid.still no luck getting it up and rnning but i know alot more about GPT! bought my self a 1TB HDD and have dd the two raid 0 drives across to it so i am abel to fruck with it a bit more. if you are keen!
[12:25] <tesla555> awk is quite confusing though
[12:25] <jolaren> Up in the right corner, in the notification area.. I have the letter thing, which everyone has. I've removed Evolution but the marks inside the notification letter doesnt get away.. I dont want it to list e-mail. how do i remove it
[12:25] <Lazyvee> back
[12:26] <erUSUL> wookienz: that gdisk utility couldn't fix the disk/partition table ?

[12:26] <rautamiekka> !hi | dannbrown
[12:26] <wookienz> erUSUL: i didnt end up trying it.
[12:27] <dannbrown> anyone can install squid on lucid or ubuntu 10.4?
[12:27] <rautamiekka> dannbrown: 10.04 and Lucid are the one and same thing.
[12:27] <erUSUL> wookienz: now that you have a dd image you can try on it? without fear of loosing any data ?
[12:27] <dannbrown> yes u rite rautamiekka
[12:27] <Lazyvee> maxwellina: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/EkayPFpt
[12:27] <rical> If I wanted to have 5 terminals on my screen with no "dead space" in between or menues etc. what woud be the preffered way? fluxbox?
[12:27] <Samara> is there any material that i can read to configure evolution to work with hotmail??
[12:27] <wookienz> erUSUL: yup. fill your boots!
[12:27] <Dr_Willis> jolaren:  perhaps --> http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/03/how-to-remove-social-network-features.html
[12:27] <dannbrown> can u help me?
[12:28] <jolaren> Dr_Willis: Only the Mail container
[12:28] <rautamiekka> dannbrown: Just wanted to clear that up ;) I'll check on Squid, but it's new to me, so I doubt I can be of help.
[12:28] <Dr_Willis> rical:  'terminator' can   tile terminals inside a single window.
[12:28] <erUSUL> rical: terminator ?
[12:28] <Samara> is there any material that i can read to configure evolution to work with hotmail??
[12:28] <Dr_Willis> jolaren:  its connected to teh volume thing. You can remove teh package. or remove teh applet and have the mail + vol thing gone. Other then that. Not sure.
[12:28] <dannbrown> oh ok rautamiekka:)thanks
[12:29] <erUSUL> rical: if you want that done by the wm look for a tiling window manager ( xomonad awosome ion etc ..) fluxbox is not a tiling wm
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> jolaren:  the comments at that url used to have a lot of other neat info.. but it seems all teh comments have vanished. :(
[12:30] <Dunas> How's flash on x64 at this point?

[12:30] <amokpaule> Hello, im on ubuntu lucid using xchat for irc. i want to hide join part messages, in the xchat faq it says i have to right click a channel tab then there should be a submenue to hide join part messages but i dont have that sub menu.
[12:30] <erUSUL> Dunas: as bad as in 32 bits but not worse ;)
[12:30] <rical> erUSUL: Dr_Willis termiantor looks promesing
[12:30] <rautamiekka> dannbrown: From your question I understood you and possibly many others can't get it installed on Lucid unlike on prev' Ubuntus ?
[12:31] <Dr_Willis> rical:  i use it all the time. The latest versions also have some new features
[12:31] <Digital_rouge> hello  flash not working in firefox  366 in ubuntu 10.4  flash will play sound but no picture
[12:31] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/EkayPFpt
[12:31] <Dunas> erUSUL: Well, last time I checked it was worse (no mouseclicks registering, and constantly dying). What about the ATI drivers for the 57xx series?
[12:31] <dannbrown> whoaa..awesome.u understood my problem just less in minute:)
[12:31] <erUSUL> Samara: scrap that. now hotmail supports pop3 itself? no?
[12:31] <dannbrown> thanks sir rautamiekka
[12:32] <rautamiekka> dannbrown: Sounds like the usual Lucid problems :(
[12:32] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Yup, saw it, thanks.  It does help when you get the nick right, sorry it's a little long. :)
[12:32] <Samara> i dont know...
[12:32] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: I'm not sure why it's not working at this point.  If I remember, all I had to do was modprobe the ath5k module.
[12:32] <Samara> ive tried to configure, but it doesnt work
[12:32] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: haha sorry about that, I'll be more careful not to mistype people's nick :-)
[12:33] <napster> Two of my keyborad buttons are not working! What could be wrong?
[12:33] <erUSUL> Samara: http://linuxowns.wordpress.com/2009/03/04/setting-up-evolution-mail-gmail-and-hotmail/
[12:33] <Samara> so, thanks!!!!
[12:33] <napster> The are double quotes and semicolon buttons
[12:33] <erUSUL> Samara: that's looks more up to date
[12:33] <napster> The laptop is TOSHIBA l510
[12:33] <dannbrown> yes i found that all the same in google search:(
[12:33] <rautamiekka> dannbrown: Have you already tried to install Squid ?
[12:33] <dannbrown> no hope
[12:34] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: I don't know
[12:34] <dannbrown> yes i have
[12:34] <Samara> erUSUL, ahh, ok thank you
[12:34] <napster> Is anyone here is free to try figure out whats wrong?
[12:34] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Try 'iwlist wlan0 scanning'
[12:34] <napster> please
[12:34] <iflema> amokpaule right click on the channel in the channel list and select 'settings' then 'hide join/part'     may be different for xchat-gnome. There are two xchats available
[12:34] <dannbrown> sir rautamiekka,i just try to stop access porn site and all things about porn
[12:34] <dannbrown> and i thought it will be better if i use squid
[12:35] <amokpaule> iflema, ty :)
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> napster:  check to see if they work in the console.  alt-ctrl-f1,   use alt-ctrl-f7 to get back to X.
[12:36] <napster> Dr_Willis: No! I tried already! -(
[12:36] <jolaren> Dr_Willis: to bad :-) I'll file a launchpad bug
[12:37] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/tavWAMtA
[12:37] <rautamiekka> dannbrown: Simply put, you want to _block_ access to porn sites totally so that the user receives something like "access denied" upon trying to get to one ?
[12:38] <napster> Dr_Willis: Could that be an error with the installation?  Or theres some other proxys/tools
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> napster:  no idea really. Try some live cd's and see if it works for them. What kind of keyboard it is? american? british?
[12:38] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Your card is detecting a wireless network named "bbox2-ac0e", is that your network?
[12:38] <rautamiekka> Dr_Willis: He wants to use Squid to block access.
[12:39] <napster> Dr_Willis: USA
[12:39] <rical> Dr_Willis: Is it possible to split in a non symetrical pattern?
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> Squid is a 'cacheing' proxy  - i dident think it did 'filtering'
[12:39] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/tavWAMtA but i can't see my wifi modem router's SSID there
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> unless its gotten a lot of new features since i last used it. :)
[12:39] <Zahnarzt> Using Xchat. How do I get nordic fonts to be compatible to users with the Mirc program?
[12:39] <dannbrown> can u share those add ons or tools with me sir Dr_Willis
[12:40] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: not my network, my neighbour's network. that's strange because I tried this before and I could see my SSID as well
[12:40] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Are you sure your network is up?
[12:40] <wookienz> erUSUL: gdisk doesnt give me much more as it says that oe of the dirves doesnt have a GPT and tries to comvert its MBR to GPT - which is probably not what i want. As far as i understand each of the drives may have a different partition appearance for a raid 0 array
[12:40] <Dr_Willis> dannbrown:  nope. I just rember seeing the firefox extension/feature once at the FF addons site.  It had some sort of 'faimly safety' feature. and was admin'd by a master user/web interface
[12:41] <Dr_Willis> dannbrown:  i tried it ages ago and diont even rember its name'
[12:41] <Zahnarzt> Also, I have a comp. downstairs with P2 celeron (300 Mhz) and 128 mb ram. Any linux version that would be suitable to run on it?
[12:41] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: I'll reconnect
[12:41] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Also try 'sudo ifconfig ath0 up'
[12:42] <fudanchii> # Appears as SCOTTY
[12:42] <rautamiekka> dannbrown: http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/wiki/index.php/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch32_:_Controlling_Web_Access_with_Squid <- gives me the impression you can use diff' keywords to block sites. However, I know to tell there's loads of porn sites which have no relating words to porn, thus unless you actually find perfect keywords, there's --s-o-m-e-- sites accessable.
[12:42] <dannbrown> lol:)
[12:43] <dannbrown> but thanks to sir Dr_willis for ur response
[12:43] <rical> Dr_Willis: can I stor my terminator configuration somehow?
[12:43] <rical> so that I don't have to split and remove the scrollbars every time
[12:44] <rautamiekka> dannbrown: http://www.faqs.org/docs/securing/chap28sec231.html <- This tut' looks like something altho' it's aimed for RedHad Linux. Give it a shot.
[12:44] <NightKhaos> Umm... why are there four floodbots? *confused*
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> rical:  it has settings that get saved.. unless you want to clarify what you mean
[12:45] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: I typed 'sudo ifconfig ath0 up" and it said ERROR - no such device
[12:45] <LjL> NightKhaos: yes, there are multiple ones for redudancy and to be more effective
[12:45] <maxwellian> NightKhaos: The Four Horsemen.
[12:45] <slinker1> hot and cold running floodbots maybe?
[12:45] <Dr_Willis> rical:  http://www.webupd8.org/2010/07/terminator-094-adds-watch-terminals-for.html
[12:45] <giGgLes> hi guys
[12:45] <dannbrown> thanks sir rautamiekka
[12:45] <Kilowatt> Anyone know why the add printer button is not working (using 10.04)
[12:45] <MaRk-I> dannbrown: IPblock uses peerguardian, also blocks adult websites
[12:45] <rautamiekka> NightKhaos: I guess the others joined to relieve some workload from the only one.
[12:46] <gidna> Hi
[12:46] <gidna> How can I download an wall site with its contenent?
[12:46] <Joshmuffin> hey, can anyone help me setup dual monitors with a ati card
[12:47] <MaRk-I> Lazyvee: your card is wlan0
[12:47] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Cw3Cc2Gz 2nd SSID is mine, so it's working now
[12:47] <maxwellian> MaRk-I: That was per my suggestion.
[12:48] <dannbrown> hey thanks sir mark_i
[12:48] <maxwellian> MaRk-I: On my machine (same chipset) the interface is called ath0, so I was hoping that would help.
[12:48] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: I think so, as I'm using LAN cable to get online and left wifi on
[12:49] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Okay, so can you try to connect to the wireless?  What happens?
[12:49] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: wireless is on but as I got online using the ethernet cable i think that's what i'm using
[12:51] <wookienz> if i dd an OS  hdd (64GB SSD) to another HDD parition, does that receiving partition have to be the same size? what if i want to copy to back with that work?
[12:51] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: You're connected to the network via wireless?  Do you see little bars in the top right corner?
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> wookienz:  you may want to 'dd' it to a file if you want to 'archive' it . theres other tools that can also do that task.
[12:53] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: no, I see 2 arrows, the first going up and the other going down (wired connection) but i'm connected with the wireless as well, at least to my LAN
[12:53] <Dr_Willis> wookienz:  you can dd one hd to another of larger size and it 'should' work. but dding it BACK can be an issue. (thus the use of a file)
[12:53] <Dreaman> хоп :)
[12:53] <wookienz> Dr_Willis: ok thanks.
[12:53] <MaRk-I> dannbrown: this is far easier http://www.kabatology.com/06/23/block-adult-web-content-with-opendns-familyshield-no-install/
[12:54] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: if I turn off the wired connection i might lose the online connection
[12:54] <Dr_Willis> wookienz:  also using dd with a hard drive PARTITION is  more commonly done to 'archive' a partition.  unless you really want a clone of the whole hard drive - including  the mbnr, swap, and otehr partitions in one swoop
[12:54] <dannbrown> i cant use that sir mark-i ,since my laptop connection is dynamic
[12:55] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: How do you know that you're connected to the wireless?
[12:55] <wookienz> Dr_Willis: yes i want to image the whole drive so i can switch to a different OS for a short time to try and fix my fakeraid issue, then go back to ubuntu
[12:56] <MaRk-I> dannbrown: just add the DNS address to your laptop ;)  besides you can add that to your router
[12:57] <dannbrown> ok sir mark-i,i'll try later:).thanks for ur info sir!i appreciate that
[12:57] <MaRk-I> yw
[12:58] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: because when i left click on the up&down arrow icon i can see my wifi network's name and "disconnect" below it
[12:58] <wookienz> can fakeraid be turned into software raid?
[12:58] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: same for Auto eth0
[12:58] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Can you perhapes right click on the name and get info about the connection?
[12:58] <bullgard4> I have installed the DEB program package »linux-source«. Am I right in believing that installing the package »linux-doc« is thus dispensable?
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> I thought a fakeraid was a software raid.. but i dont use raids any more
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> !raid
[12:59] <wookienz> Dr_Willis: from what i understand fakeraid is from bios controller chips and the like, and software raid is through nix sftware using mdadm etc
[13:00] <Lazyvee> maxwellian:info about the connection: there's 2 tabs, the 1st for Auto eth0 (default) and the other for my wireless network
[13:00] <ingenius> Hi ,, where I can find the option to hidde the grub boot menu ?
[13:01] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Do you see an IP address for the wireless?
[13:01] <rautamiekka> ingenius: Depends on are you using GRUB Legacy or GRUB 2
[13:01] <ingenius> I don't know .. im using 10.04 :)
[13:01] <ingenius> default instalation
[13:02] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: Auto eth0 uses the typical IP 192.168.x.x and the wifi... <IP_ADDRESS> now that's the part I don't understand, even I input 192.168.x.x in the wireless connection settings it always displays <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:02] <chandru_in> how to issue a /quit in empathy?
[13:02] <rautamiekka> ingenius: If you made pure installation, it's using 2. If it's upgrade from prev' Ubuntu, it's most Legacy unless you explicitly told it to install 2
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> ingenius:  thats grub2 then.
[13:02] <ingenius> yes grub2 its a pure installation
[13:02] <rautamiekka> ingenius: I dig up that info from my Ubuntu Server, just a sec.
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> ingenius:  see the file /etc/default/grub for the 'hide' options
[13:03] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: and the wireless is connected to wanl0
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> !grub2 | ingenius
[13:03] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: and the wireless is connected to wlan0*
[13:03] <robthebob> just upgraded to lucid, cant seem to add just a volume icon without this new envelope thing. any ideas?
[13:04] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: I don't know how you're trying to specify the IP, but it's okay for your router to assign an address in the 10.*.*.* range.
[13:05] <Dr_Willis> robthebob:   they are the same applet. you can remove them both from the panel. and use the   gnome-volume-control-applet    if you just want a volume applet.
[13:05] <AhmedBH> Hi all, I am on lucid and i accidently deleted the Default cursor cause i was removing additional cursor and themes so its gone now, how do i get it back
[13:05] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: The specific address you got seems weird...mine is usually <IP_ADDRESS> or something like that.
[13:05] <eoke> robthebob: I think it's something like removing the package "indicator-messages".
[13:05] <wookienz> Dr_Willis: can i dd my OS drive while the OS is running?
[13:05] <Dr_Willis> wookienz:  short answer.. You dont.
[13:06] <Dr_Willis> wookienz:  use a live cd. theres several out with many disk imageing/recovery/restore tools included
[13:06] <wookienz> why?
[13:06] <wookienz> ok.
[13:06] <Dr_Willis> wookienz:   think about it.. :)
[13:06] <chandru_in> Doesn't empathy support all IRC commands?
[13:06] <robthebob> Dr_Willis, right, that isn't in the menu though when i try to add applets
[13:06] <Pici> chandru_in: no. Empathy has limited IRC support.
[13:06] <Dr_Willis> wookienz:  you are dding a drive.. somthing writes to the first part of the hd. (a log or somthing) and then your dd image.. is then wrong.
[13:06] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Anyway, if you have an IP address, then try disabling the ethernet.
[13:07] <Dr_Willis> robthebob:  its not an applet you add its a app you run.
[13:07] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: Good luck!
[13:07] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: I think I always get <IP_ADDRESS> with the wireless
[13:07] <eoke> robthebob: Yeah that works but you'll have to log out and back in again or remove and readd the indicator applet before you see the change.
[13:07] <chandru_in> Pici: Any suggestion for better IRC client for gnome?
[13:07] <Pici> chandru_in: xchat is quite good
[13:07] <robthebob> i don't understand the connection between sound and this email/chatting mixture icon
[13:07] <robthebob> why are they so inextricably linked?
[13:07] <Dr_Willis> robthebob:  they are the same 'applet' its a combo applet.
[13:07] <Lazyvee> let's see
[13:07] <Dr_Willis> robthebob:  at least thats how i see it work
[13:08] <robthebob> (except the two icons have a massive amount of wasted space between them unlike other icons)
[13:08] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: You might lose your current connections.  You might need to reconnect to the wireless.
[13:08] <gracz> hi to all :D
[13:08] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: But try to go to a web page or something after disabling the ethernet.
[13:09] <robthebob> so the long and the short of it is that an average user has no way of removing the envelope thing without also losing the ability to modify the volume
[13:09] <eoke> robthebob: To get rid of it execute "sudo aptitude remove indicator-messages" log out and back in again.
[13:09] <robthebob> strange
[13:09] <AhmedBH> can i run IMVU under wine ?
[13:09] <rautamiekka> ingenius: If I remember correctly without making a search, opening up "/etc/default/grub" and editing line "GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true" to be exactly that way and then running "sudo update-grub", the menu should become invisible again.
[13:09] <robthebob> eoke, that will remove only the envelope?
[13:09] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: I'll turn off both connections and see if if works
[13:09] <gracz> (I'm sorry for my poor english) :)
[13:09] <eoke> robthebob: Correct
[13:09] <robthebob> ok i'll try that thanks
[13:09] <Misterio> AhmedBH: Wine has its own public database
[13:09] <eoke> robthebob: Np

[13:10] <gracz> why archive tar.gz when i try open it

[13:11] <bullgard4> I have installed the DEB program package »linux-source«. Am I right in believing that installing the package »linux-doc« is thus dispensable?

[13:12] <rautamiekka> AnxiousNut: Oh, okey. I check it up for you. Which Ubuntu is it ?
[13:12] <robthebob> although i think i will use this gnome-volume thing anyway as the new widget is too annoying (regression in loss of ability to specify a particular volume immediately without dragging)
[13:12] <AnxiousNut> rautamiekka, it's lubuntu 10.04 with totem
[13:12] <maxwellian> gracz: Looks like you might have a corrupt file.
[13:12] <gracz> And it is egoboo 2.5.7 package
[13:13] <eoke> barfster: It's not really clear what you're asking.
[13:13] <maxwellian> gracz: What command are you using?
[13:13] <barfster> dist-upgrade
[13:13] <barfster> eoke: 7.10 -> 10.04?

[13:37] <berkes> io, so whether it is bash, or a tool, with or without gui does not really matter. Problem is mostly that such a script or tool needs to be generic enough and/or managable enough to fit on most projects.
[13:37] <Shapeshifter> Hi. Does someone know a way of resizing an image to a specific number of kilbytes? Like with convert, but instead of giving a geometry, giving a desired file size

[13:38] <MaRk-I> Lazyvee: have you tried without encryption?
[13:38] <Lazyvee> maxwellian: but these are network IPs and I can connect to the network so it's probably not the reason why it won't work
[13:39] <Lazyvee> no, but i'm going to try now
[13:39] <maxwellian> Lazyvee: If your router is set up for that range, I don't know how you're getting the IP you got.
[13:40] <tomatto_> why ubuntu runs in failsafe mode graphics?
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> olskolirc:  from reading the --help  --> chm2pdf  --book  foo.chm

[13:40] <tomatto_> respectively in low driver mode?

[13:53] <Ash___> Oh, sorry. I'm running an Ubuntu Live CD and trying to save the files on a dead windows box. The hard drive won't mount, and in the error details I am told to run chkdsk /f in windows, and reboot. I can't do that, though, because the windows install is dead.
[13:54] <Dulak> carebucket: it means one side reset the connection unexpectedly
[13:55] <AnxiousNut> Disk Utility Raid Problem solved: The disks should be without any filesystem, deleting the partitions solved it! Just for future reference!
[13:55] <Ash___> Is that a bit clearer, bullgard4? :/

[14:04] <MaRk-I> Ash___: fixmbr?
[14:04] <Dulak> Ash___: use a partition manager to mark the windows partition as bootable
[14:04] <Joshmuffin> bullgard4, yeah i couldnt understand a thing
[14:05] <Ash___> i can do that from the Ubuntu Live CD, right? i can't burn any CD's, Mark-I/Dulak
[14:06] <Proz> I just downloaded the ubuntu alternative installer - Put it on a USB stick and tried to install it. The PC boots up with the USB stick, the ubuntu menu appears however after that nothing happens when I hit enter while having install to harddisk selected. Nor does it boot Ubuntu if I select that.

[14:08] <tydeas> Hello , when i open my pc with ubuntu 10 i have connection to the internet and after a while i have no more....
[14:08] <tydeas> without a reason...why is that?
[14:09] <tydeas> I have network connection but not internet connection
[14:09] <bobo123> so it dies after some minutes? but you can still reach the other computers on your local network?
[14:09] <Ash___> dulak, sorry for my lack of techskills, but do i just run the command 'fdisk' in the terminal?
[14:09] <VCoolio> yehia: disable some things you don't need, like bluetooth maybe or laptop stuff; install bum, run it and have fun
[14:09] <tydeas> bobo123: exactly
[14:09] <yehia> io, i dont want to upgrade it as every time i upgrade - i lose the flixibility and compatiblity with my Laptop
[14:09] <Dulak> Ash___:  fdisk /dev/sda
[14:09] <panfist> i'm trying to install a package, and it reports that it installs successfully but i'm missing files that are supposed to be included
[14:09] <silv3r_m00n> hi there
[14:09] <Proz> Does anyone here know what the issue exactly is? I have tried different sources of the alternate ubuntu installer.
[14:10] <silv3r_m00n> I need to scan over the network , I mean the scanner is connected to other computer over lan
[14:10] <bobo123> tydeas: btw, do you use some wireless connection, or have network cables to all your computers?
[14:10] <silv3r_m00n> how ?
[14:10] <tydeas> bobo123: cables. i am talking here by connecting with shh
[14:10] <MaRk-I> Proz: you cant use the regular live cd?
[14:10] <tydeas> to an other pc in same network
[14:10] <Proz> No, I'd like LVM + Encryption.
[14:10] <Dulak> Ash___: inside fdisk 'p' will print out the partitions, look for the id number of the windows partition
[14:11] <tydeas> bobo123: any idea?
[14:11] <bobo123> tydeas: and the other computers can still reach internet?
[14:11] <tydeas> yes this how i talk to you
[14:11] <bobo123> tydeas: I am trying to get any idea but just now I can't understand how it is possible....
[14:11] <Dulak> Ash___: once you know that id number, hit 'a' and give that number, then hit 'w' to write the change
[14:11] <terry_> How to increase the sound of a movie
[14:11] <irv> anyone know of a good terminal bandwidth monitor?
[14:12] <Proz> MaRk-I No, I'd like LVM + Encryption.
[14:12] <tomatto_> how tune satelite card programs?
[14:12] <terry_> It has very less volume
[14:12] <panfist> i'm trying to install a package, and it reports that it installs successfully but i'm missing files that are supposed to be included
[14:12] <Ash___> so, the number's '0x1549f232'. i'll give it a try
[14:13] <Ash___> oh no, sily me
[14:13] <Ash___> apparently the ID's 7, but im only allowed to input 1-4?
[14:13] <bobo123> tydeas: I suppose you have a home router (or ads-lmodem with router builtin etc) and your router gives your ubuntu computer a ipnumber when started as it should, but then after a while drops it? perhaps you can try to write a permanent ipnumber on your ubuntu-computer instead
[14:14] <Dulak> Ash___: no the partition id number: sda1 sda2 sda3 etc
[14:14] <Ash___> ah, okay
[14:14] <Ash___> so, currently sda1 is enabled and sda2 is disabled
[14:14] <Ash___> i should enable 2 and disable 1?
[14:14] <Dulak> Ash___: which is listed as ntfs?
[14:14] <Ash___> both are listed as HPFS/NTFS
[14:15] <tydeas> bobo123: any ideas?
[14:15] <tomatto_> why ubuntu runs with failsafe X server?
[14:15] <MaMoUs> where can i find a free VPN connection
[14:15] <leven> can i run memtest from a bootable ubuntu 10.04 usb stick?
[14:15] <Dulak> Ash___: then yes I'd say flag 1 since it isn't already
[14:15] <tomatto_> leven: yes
[14:15] <leven> tomatto_: how?
[14:15] <Ash___> okay. i'll give it a go. reboot in after this, and see if it works?
[14:15] <leven> the menu it had in prev- releases is gone
[14:16] <leven> now all i can choose is install or boot?
[14:16] <Dulak> Ash___: make sure you write the change first with 'w'
[14:16] <tomatto_> leven: in menu it must be
[14:16] <Ash___> yeah, done. i'll let you know how it gets on
[14:16] <leven> i never get the menu
[14:16] <bobo123> tydeas: try rightclick on the network symbol and edit network connection, and then edit the "auto eth0" to not use DHCP for IPv4, but instead Manual and say <IP_ADDRESS> or something
[14:17] <bobo123> now I must run
[14:17] <leven> tomatto_: are you sure it is still there? i know exactly how to do it in all older releases wich have the menu
[14:17] <tydeas> bobo123: my ips where already static
[14:17] <irv> anyone know of a good terminal bandwidth monitor?
[14:17] <bobo123> aha
[14:17] <Daekdroom> irv, nethogs
[14:17] <abhi_nav> is america's army a trusted game?
[14:17] <Ash___> now it's listing 'a disc read error occured' >_>
[14:17] <MaMoUs> where can i find a free VPN connection
[14:18] <tomatto_> leven: how did you install ubuntu to usb?
[14:18] <sonorus> how to replace '.' with ',' in text file with size > 65 mb ???
[14:18] <Ash___> i think this windows partiton's beyond saveable, Dulak :P
[14:18] <maxime_> !fr
[14:18] <tomatto_> why ubuntu runs with failsafe X server?
[14:18] <leven> with the system/administration/startaupdiskcreator option from a already installed computer
[14:18] <irv> Daekdroom: cheers
[14:18] <bobo123> is it just web addresses that fails (dns server) or allso ip numbers? if you frmo commandline run   ping <IP_ADDRESS>  instead of ping www.google.com
[14:18] <leven> tomatto_: with the system/administration/startaupdiskcreator option from a already installed computer
[14:19] <tomatto_> leven: that should work
[14:19]  * bobo123 leaving
[14:19] <Dulak> Ash___: quite possibly
[14:19] <VCoolio> sonorus: use 'sed',  http://sed.sourceforge.net/sed1line.txt
[14:19] <Ash___> yeah, i'm getting he 'disk boot failure' error again, dulak.
[14:20] <Dulak> Ash___: Something is borked
[14:20] <metrahla> hi im using pure ftp .. i need to transfer a file, im at the last step, all i  need now is write permisions for the client but how can i give those permissions
[14:20] <metrahla> ?
[14:20] <leven> tomatto_: i know.. thats why i'm wondering if the removed it från the new release, in order to make it more simple and "maccy"
[14:20] <Ash___> Yeah. I'm going to try mounting the HDD from inside linux and copying the files onto a memory stick.
[14:21] <Ash___> will you still be able to try and help me if i get errors, dulak?
[14:21] <tanthony> hi everyone. I'm getting the error "XLoadQueryFont: failed loading font '*freemono*'". Can anyone help?
[14:21] <Dulak> Ash___: I should be here most of the day
[14:21] <ghoulsblade> hi all, i'm playing around with ldap auth client in karmic(9.10)  (ldap server is on another machine), and i'd like to start over, i tried  dpkg-reconfigure libpam-ldap libnss-ldap nss-updatedb libnss-db    , i tried apt-get remove --purge on them, i also tried deleting the files i could find in /etc manually, anything else i can do ?
[14:21] <user1_> Dr_Willis: u there?
[14:21] <tanthony> I have tried searching google and some forums for 3 days now without luck..
[14:22] <tomatto_> leven: better is install grub on flash. to run memtest
[14:22] <ghoulsblade> i'd like to have those  configure dialogs i got during install back, but couldn't get them with    dpkg-reconfigure  =(
[14:23] <leven> tomatto_: would be good to have both, as it was before..
[14:24] <tomatto_> leven: i have no experiences, how it was before.
[14:24] <X-2> sup
[14:24] <tanthony> Can someone help me regarding touchscreen calibration problems?
[14:24] <nucc1> can i do a raid setup using two IDE drives after installing ubuntu?
[14:24] <leven> tomatto_: but you have tried a 10.04 stick, and run memtest from it?
[14:24] <leven> oh thats nice
[14:25] <leven> in this channel it is a must to ignore everything but pure text..
[14:25] <Maletor> How can I map my horizontal scroll to my browser's forward and back buttons?
[14:25] <tomatto_> leven: when install cd to usb via usbstickcreator, it is same as on cd
[14:25] <barfster> nucc1: Yes
[14:25] <barfster> 0 or 1
[14:26] <Dulak> nucc1: you'd have to create a broken array with the first disk and then add the second disk to the array to sync it, if you mean raid 1 (mirroring)
[14:26] <Ash___> oh, weird. i'm not sure why, but changing the MBR has allowed me to be able to mount the windows partion, Dulak. that's strange.
[14:26] <nucc1> barfster, 1, it won't require losing data eh?
[14:26] <nucc1> barfster, ah, thanks :)
[14:26] <Ash___> hopefully i'll be able to copy across all my files now, and i'll just reformat windows
[14:26] <Dulak> Ash___: nifty, at least you'll get your data
[14:27] <nucc1> barfster, does it have anything to do with lvm?
[14:27] <xro> hi, to remove graphical interface from an existing installation.  i can do apt-get remove gnu??? thanks
[14:27] <bazhang> !noX | xro
[14:28] <bazhang> xro, or you could just use the minimal iso or server iso then build on that
[14:28] <barfster> I’d say yes and no: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_Volume_Manager_(Linux)
[14:28] <xro> bazhang, but i also need more disk space... so, i would like to uninstall it
[14:28] <nucc1> Dulak, thanks
[14:28] <bazhang> xro, is this permanent?
[14:28] <bazhang> xro, got a separate /home partition?
[14:28] <S4nD3r> I had a problem, and I dont know what to do. Its impossible to use xchat from my machine. I tried to use enigmail in thunderbird, probably did something wrong in keys, and now I cant use xchat, neither pidgin from my machine
[14:28] <S4nD3r> what to do?
[14:29] <xro> bazhang, yes, it's permanent.... i never use the gui and no /home is not separate
[14:29] <MaRk-I> leven: when starting the cd press "esc" key to get the memtest menu
[14:29] <tanthony> can anyone help me with me a evtouch calibration problem?
[14:29] <S4nD3r> Its matter to encryption
[14:29] <asina12> hi...does ubuntu karmic need to use usbmode switch to use a usb modem??
[14:29] <S4nD3r> Im almost to format everything and start back from beginning
[14:30] <VCoolio> xro: you could uninstall ubuntu-desktop, it's a metapackage that will take all ubuntu applications like evolution and nautilus and what not with it
[14:30] <bazhang> VCoolio, removing that will only remove that one package
[14:30] <Dr_Willis> Uninstalling ubuntu-desktop wont remove anything.
[14:30] <Dr_Willis> other then the meta-package package itself. :)
[14:31] <xro> VCoolio, ok...  ubuntu-descktop instead of gnu (gnu is on debian i think)... thanks
[14:31] <VCoolio> bazhang: ah, so after that also autoremove?
[14:31] <loneowais_> hey, would anyone like to try out my new app. It's a gmail notifier; ppa:loneowais/ppa
[14:31] <Dulak> meta packages only work for installing unfortunately
[14:31] <VCoolio> xro: sorry; read ^
[14:31] <user1_> Dr_Willis: how do we repartition usb using fdisk on ubuntu . the dd command is finally over with 1024 bs.
[14:31] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  sudo fdisk /dev/whatever   then use the proper commands to make the partitions how you want. and 'w'rite changes to disk when done
[14:32] <soa2ii_> Hi, I try to get my autofs with ldap working. I followed the instructions here: http://www.opinsys.fi/en/setting-up-nfsv4kerberosautofs5-ldap-on-ubuntu-10-04-alpha-2-lucid-part-7 but my messages log says allways: kernel: [   18.182964] automount[1223]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f4975ce3022 sp 00007fff13f1bdc8 error 4 in libc-2.11.1.so[7f4975c60000+178000] any ideas what's wrong?
[14:32] <tanthony> can anyone help me with me a evtouch calibration problem?
[14:32] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  it will be like 'n' for new, 'p' for primary,  then enter twice for teh sizes to use the whole thing..  then set its type to whatever you want. for whatever fs you want.
[14:33] <MaMoUs> where can i find a free VPN connection
[14:33] <bazhang> !ot | MaMoUs
[14:33] <Zweckfremd> hey does anybody have the hp mini 5101
[14:33] <S4nD3r> format
[14:34] <S4nD3r> so
[14:34] <S4nD3r> see you
[14:34] <S4nD3r> Ill format
[14:34] <Zweckfremd> bluetooth is not working for me
[14:34] <Dulak> S4nD3r: don't sweat it, every reformat is just a learning opportunity
[14:34] <Ash___> hm. it's only mounting certain areas, dulak.
[14:34] <Dulak> bah stupid dvorak layout
[14:35] <Dr_Willis> MaMoUs:  i googled and found a few the other day.. some dont work without some special vpn clientsx however.
[14:35] <Ash___> hur, i'm going to try remounting it.
[14:35] <Dulak> Ash___: I think it's hosed, I suspected from the beginning but figured you had nothing to lose
[14:35] <user1_> Dr_Willis: http://pastebin.com/LSTLF8KK . what now?
[14:36] <wookienz> dpkg -l |grep dmraid
[14:37] <soa2ii> Anyone an idea what's wrong with my autofs? It crashes every time giving this error:
[14:37] <soa2ii> automount[1440]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f3eb444a022 sp 00007fffc7c27938 error 4 in libc-2.11.1.so[7f3eb43c7000+178000]
[14:37] <Ash___> dulak yeah, i figured too. ah man.
[14:37] <S4nD3r> So
[14:37] <S4nD3r> nobody know the solution about encryption?
[14:38] <pakair> Zweckfremd, run /etc/init.d/bluetooth status then start
[14:39] <Zweckfremd> thx
[14:40] <metra_> does anyone knows how i can make pureftp server give write permisions?
[14:40] <Ash___> i'm going to keep trying to get the photos, dulak, but the girl i'm doing this for has definitely learned a lesson in backing up data
[14:40] <akash> .help
[14:41] <Dulak> Ash___: tell her I said hi  ;)
[14:41] <DexterLB>  I have coLinux with ubuntu jaunty. I use it as a server and it has apache, deluge, znc, tor, squid, some VPN scripts and pptp, and a few other things
[14:41] <DexterLB> do you think it will be possible to upgrade it to lucid without breaking everything?
[14:41] <DexterLB> i also have custom init.d scripts
[14:41] <bribroder> morning y'all
[14:42] <MaRk-I> Ash___: have u tried testdisk/photorec?
[14:42] <Zweckfremd> /etc/init.d/bluetooth start is not working
[14:42] <DexterLB> Zweckfremd: which ubuntu version?
[14:43] <Ash___> Mark-I I can't download them: i only have one CD drive, and it's borked
[14:43] <Dulak> Ash___: no flash drive?
[14:43] <Zweckfremd> i use a ubuntu netbook version
[14:43] <Ash___> and i can't download a minimal Live CD, because i'd need to burn it
[14:44] <Dulak> Who uses cds anymore?
[14:44] <Ash___> dulak, there's an idea.
[14:44] <MaRk-I> !testdisk
[14:45] <Zweckfremd> Linux Poolhose 2.6.32-23-generic #37-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jun 11 07:54:58 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
[14:45] <leven> MaRk-I: just what i was looking for, thanks!
[14:45] <Zweckfremd> if that is of any help
[14:46] <Ash___> testdisk or photorec? i'm just reading up on them, but it seems like they're the same thing from the same company >_>
[14:46] <MaRk-I> leven: yw
[14:46] <MaRk-I> Ash___: same program
[14:46] <leven> Ash___: maybe one bought the other not so long ago?
[14:47] <MaRk-I> Ash___: maybe you can make it work with the livecd install alien and convert the rpm one :P
[14:47] <LeRrA> Hi, how is it possible to get ETA on a patch to main repository? Is it possible to downlaod it before and test it out? I am thinking of this bugfix: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/520386
[14:47] <Ash___> ah, testdisc is a partiton recoverer, photorec saves files (hopefully) if testdisc doesn't work
[14:47] <bullgard4> Joshmuffin: A small help might be [GNOME] System > Preferences > Monitors > (Monitor Preferences) > Detect Monitors.
[14:48] <MaRk-I> Ash___:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=387922
[14:49] <bullgard4> I have installed the DEB program package »linux-source«. Am I right in believing that installing the package »linux-doc« is thus dispensable?
[14:49] <BluesKaj> howdy
[14:49] <struhevol> how do i change permission on a folder
[14:49] <struhevol> it tells m you are not the owner
[14:49] <Eric_Berk> Since my last update, my wifi stopped working... any iwconfig command returns device is busy...?
[14:49] <bullgard4> struhevol: You can use Nautilus.
[14:49] <Ash___> urrr, can i do that on a livecd, or will i have to nab a USB version of ubuntu?
[14:49] <struhevol> hu ??
[14:50] <iceroot> Eric_Berk: what update? new ubuntu version or just apt-get (dist-)upgrade?
[14:50] <MaRk-I> Ash___:  http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/testdisk
[14:50] <bullgard4> struhevol: '~$ gksu nautilus'
[14:50] <MaRk-I> try installing it
[14:50] <Eric_Berk> iceroot: the 'thing' that pops up and asks you to update 'stuff'
[14:50] <Eric_Berk> is there a log somewhere so I can tell you?
[14:51] <AnxiousNut> help, I created a raid 0 array on a PC and worked, but now it doesnt work on my netbook! it says "cannot mount file"
[14:52] <Eric_Berk> iceroot: I am looking at /var/log/apt/history ... do you want me to pastie?
[14:52] <Ash___> right, i'll give you a shout when i've ran through it
[14:52] <struhevol> delete foldername
[14:52] <VCoolio> LeRrA: if the patch is accepted by the developers it will probably be released in a new version, and appear in the next ubuntu release unless it's a security thing and fixed for older versions too; you can do 'apt-get source <package>', then apply the patch to it, install dependencies 'apt-get build-dep <package>' then build with checkinstall (./configure, make, sudo checkinstall)
[14:52] <MaRk-I> Ash___:  just have a usb with plenty of space and select only the type of files you want to recover....
[14:54] <struhevol> how do i use natilus to change the permission of the folder
[14:54] <struhevol> dir
[14:55] <knoppies> struhevol, have you looked at the tabs in the Properties from the right click menu?
[14:55] <struhevol> yes
[14:55] <VCoolio> LeRrA: according to the comments it's fixed in libvirt - 0.8.1-2ubuntu1 which will be in ubuntu 10.10, so patience or build like I said
[14:55] <knoppies> Is permissions one of the tabs?
[14:56] <struhevol> and it say you are not the owner
[14:56] <struhevol> yes
[14:56] <_spm_Draget> What is the difference between apt-get and aptitude. And if they do both the same, why have both?
[14:57] <iflema> _spm_Draget ones on the way out (aptitude).... one is more user friendlier/human readable
[14:57] <struhevol> it tells me i am not th owner so u cannot change these permissions
[14:57] <FranzStrudel> åäö
[14:57] <user1_> can someone help me with partition with fdisk. can it be done similarly as it is done with windows since fdisk is a dos tool
[14:57] <_spm_Draget> iflema: So on the long term, aptitude will be removed?
[14:58] <iflema> _spm_Draget I belive that is the plan....
[14:58] <gelan> AnxiousNut, have you installed mdadm on your netbook?   I think in theory you could run nautilus as root, but I believe that it is highly discouraged.
[14:59] <AnxiousNut> gelan, oh God, forgot to do that! Thanks for reminding me! I say this should be preinstalled though!
[14:59] <struhevol> ok chmod 777 filename would that work
[14:59] <erUSUL> user1_: unix fdisk is not similar to dos fdisk. use more modern easy tools like parted or cfdisk
[15:00] <erUSUL> user1_: or if you can use a gui use gparted
[15:00] <knoppies> struhevol, actually, now that i think about it you want to change the owner, I forget the command, give me a sec.
[15:00] <user1_> duffydack: i just completed "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=1024" on my 256gb flash drive. i want to format and partition it so that it's usable on every OS
[15:00] <Eric_Berk> any ideas how ubuntu broke my wifi on a standard update?
[15:01] <user1_> erUSUL: yes. i am really had a hard time in knowing ubuntu doesnt have proper tools to partition or atleast i am ignorant!!
[15:01] <erUSUL> user1_: system>admin>partition editor
[15:02] <knoppies> struhevol, man chown
[15:02] <struhevol> man chown hu ??
[15:02] <user1_> erUSUL: what do you recommend. a dos table with a 256gb fat32 partition? since ext3 is immediately not recognized even by gparted after format!
[15:03] <struhevol> ok
[15:03] <knoppies> struhevol, man just brings up the manual page on a command. It will tell you how to use the command.
[15:03] <erUSUL> user1_: 256 GiB or MiB ? is a SSD ?
[15:03] <struhevol> sweet
[15:03] <struhevol> thanks
[15:04] <gelan> user1_, I am surprised gparted is not recognizing ext3!
[15:04] <user1_> erUSUL:it's 256GiB. disk utility shows it as 275GB
[15:04] <struhevol> all i want to do is delete the dir
[15:04] <user1_> gelan: that's the biggest problem . it does create ext3. but mmediately after that it scans and says unknown format.
[15:04] <Ragav> hi
[15:05] <iflema> _spm_Draget  oi.... from the install cd, its only a couple of clicks away
[15:05] <gelan> user1_, that sounds like a problem with the drive.
[15:05] <_spm_Draget> iflema: Huh, what do you mean?
[15:05] <erUSUL> user1_: well the filesystem will depend on in what systems/OS you will be using the disk
[15:06] <knoppies> struhevol, then sudo rm and sudo rmdir
[15:06] <gelan> user1_, how about NTFS?
[15:06] <knoppies> struhevol, Just be careful with rm.
[15:06] <user1_> gelan: is there a foolproof test to know if a USB is problematic or not?
[15:06] <bribroder> Anyone know how to add a driver to the minimal install?
[15:06] <iflema> _spm_Draget aptitude may not be on the install cd but it will be available in the repositories
[15:07] <user1_> erUSUL: i want it to be recognized on ubuntu first and then may be half for fat32 and half for ext3!
[15:07] <gelan> user1_, Let me ask a silly question here.  You did click on "apply" in gparted. Did'nt you?
[15:07] <user1_> gelan: yes
[15:07] <_spm_Draget> iflema: Good, because I think it is confisuing new users
[15:08] <gelan> user1_, I don't know of a foolproof test but did you try NTFS?
[15:09] <struhevol> cannot remove its a directory
[15:09] <user1_> gelan: i did.
[15:09] <struhevol> rm dont work on directories
[15:09] <erUSUL> user1_: i would use ( for flash device ) ext2 or ext4 without journal if it is going to be used in linux
[15:09] <sebsebseb> hi
[15:09] <Ash____> urr, sorry about that. my netbook died.
[15:09] <erUSUL> user1_: or ntfs if it is going to be used in windows and linux
[15:09] <gelan> user1_, Didnt work I suppose.
[15:09] <smt-mobil> is there a special channel where server configuration topics are discussed?
[15:10] <user1_> erUSUL: gparted didnt work. do you have commands for ubuntu fdisk?
[15:10] <Ash____> Mark-I, i'm sure the internet hates me today. the Ubuntu site you linked me to won't work, and Alien failed converting the RPM to a .deb
[15:10] <visof> i can use irc and i can't open any web pages , i changes the nameserver to <IP_ADDRESS> and i have the same problem
[15:10] <sebsebseb> smt-mobil: #ubuntu-server for Server Edition
[15:10] <smt-mobil> thx
[15:10] <visof> what should i check too ?
[15:10] <erUSUL> user1_: use parted in command line . « sudo parted /dev/sdx » type help press enter
[15:10] <MaRk-I> Ash____: odd because the page says testdisk is in the universe repos
[15:10] <sebsebseb> smt-mobil: np
[15:11] <gelan> user1_, you have another flash drive lying around that you could try formatting?
[15:11] <Ash____> Mark-I, the ubuntu version i'm running's pretty old, it's the only LiveCD i could find lying about :/
[15:11] <MaRk-I> Ash____: what version?
[15:11] <Ash____> and I changed the repos and still couldn't find it in synaptic, so I'm guessing it's not included in this ver.
[15:12] <blain> can 64bit cds be requested or only 32bit?
[15:12] <user1_> gelan: quite a good suggestion but not this huge.
[15:12] <user1_> erUSUL: i will try parted this time with ntfs.
[15:12] <gelan> user1_, can you try it on another OS  or PC?
[15:12] <Ash____> pah, i don't even know. i'm imagining 8, maybe.
[15:12] <MaRk-I> lol
[15:12] <gelan> user1_, what version of Ubuntu again?
[15:12] <erUSUL> user1_: you have to install ntfsprogs package if you want to format in ntfs
[15:13] <MaRk-I> cat /proc/lsb_release    is that the command?
[15:13] <bribroder> Anyone know how to add a driver to the minimal install?
[15:13] <Ash____> no such file or directory, i'm getting.
[15:13] <MaRk-I> shoot i forgot the command xD
[15:14] <Ash____> yeah, it's not one i store at the front of my mind :P
[15:14] <user1_> erUSUL: oh ok.so a dos parition table and ntfs.
[15:14] <bazhang> !version
[15:14] <_spm_Draget> Who made autofs? Sun?
[15:14] <MaRk-I> there you go, ty bazhang
[15:14] <user1_> gelan: lucid
[15:14] <Ash____> 'no lsb modules are available'. christ, it must be old.
[15:14] <gelan> user1_, then gparted should have come with ntfsprogs
[15:14] <bazhang> _spm_Draget, does that have anything to do with ubuntu support?
[15:15] <MaRk-I> Ash____: must be warty whoary lmao
[15:15] <_spm_Draget> bazhang: sort of... because I heard there were forks... and I have no idea what ubuntu is using
[15:15] <Ash____> ._.'''
[15:15] <MaRk-I> should burn a more recent one eh
[15:15] <Ash____> i'm sure i have an open suse livecd lying around at home, i might drive and grab that
[15:15] <rmrfslash> I did this once before but forgot.... how much space does a basic Ubuntu Server consume?
[15:15] <_spm_Draget> bazhang: And stop being an annoying irc-troll
[15:15] <bazhang> user1_, you've been on this a couple of days; this is a flash drive 256GB , correct?
[15:16] <Ash____> i would, i'll remember that next time the CD Drive's working :P
[15:16] <user1_> bazhang: yes.
[15:16] <bazhang> _spm_Draget, that is not necessary. chat in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[15:17] <bazhang> user1_, and the issue is that it won't show up at all when you insert it into your usb port?
[15:17] <MaRk-I> Ash____: burn it to a usb, just hope the pc has more than one usb port :P
[15:18] <user1_> bazhang: the issue was it does not retain data when remounted.
[15:18] <Ash____> this is so long winded, hah. oh man, damn sentimental photo values D:<
[15:18] <user7> pollo
[15:18] <user1_> bazhang : and i ran a dd zero as willis suggested
[15:18] <bazhang> user7, the data traveller has password protection if I recall correctly
[15:18] <bazhang> whoops sorry user7
[15:18] <user1_> bazhang : no
[15:19] <user1_> bazhang : or how do we check it
[15:19] <Ash____> eh, i'm just going to drive home and grab the Open SUSE disc. i'm fairly sure i have another (newer) ubuntu disc, too, so i'll have a look for that
[15:19] <Ash____> back in about 10.
[15:19] <bazhang> user1_, and it works on none of the various OSes you have tried. I would seriously consider it may well be a hardware issue

[15:21] <SteffJay> Does anybody know if the 10.04 repositories is down ?
[15:21] <jpds> SteffJay: Err, no?
[15:21] <wangfeng> no
[15:21] <jpds> SteffJay: Which mirror are you using?
[15:22] <MaRk-I> SteffJay: some ppl have problems with br servers
[15:22] <SteffJay> I'm loading 10.04 and it is hanging on d/loading updates :-/
[15:22] <jpds> MaRk-I: Yes; known issue, I've notified the admin.
[15:22] <jpds> SteffJay: Which mirror?
[15:22] <bazhang> wangfeng, here is english only; /join #ubuntu-cn
[15:23] <jiffe> do-release-upgrade doesn't seem to always work, it has gotten stuck twice
[15:23] <SteffJay> Something about gb-translation ????
[15:23] <jpds> SteffJay: Please pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list file.
[15:23] <jiffe> its been sitting at 'Installing new version of config file /etc/logrotate.d/mysql-server ...' all weekend

[15:27] <SteffJay> However, there is a "skip" button !!
[15:27] <VCoolio> jiffe: try a fresh install or uninstall mysql, upgrade, reinstall mysql; both are workarounds but unless you have useful error output I don't know what else
[15:30] <etrisnanto> hello all
[15:30] <wookienz> gents my apt-get has died - i am getting "unknown error executing gpgv" when using apt-get update
[15:31] <slow-motion> bye
[15:31] <SteffJay> @wookienz You'll probably find the apt-get is ok. There is no files to retrieve from any Ubuntu web site at the moment
[15:32] <eoke> wookienz: Is your system date correct http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=271904
[15:32] <wookienz> SteffJay: they are down?
[15:33] <CloneA> Is there a way to take a 'screenshot' on a headless machine and save it as an image? - IE, if I wanted a result like this: http://i.imgur.com/X47BT.jpg
[15:33] <SteffJay> I think so wookienz
[15:33] <xiong> 40 days continuous uptime on my laptop. Then it shut down (CPU overtemp).
[15:33] <wookienz> eoke: time is fine
[15:33] <wookienz> so world wide ubuntu repos are down?
[15:34] <iflema> wookienz no.
[15:34] <eoke> wookienz: I'm performing an update as we speak just fine.
[15:34] <eoke> wookienz: When you say time I presume you've checked the date as well.
[15:34] <wookienz> ive tried changing repo's, same issue "Unknown error executing pgpv'
[15:34] <wookienz> eoke: yup
[15:35] <SteffJay> There must be a problem on the internet backbone somewhere
[15:35] <josephnexus> so I've got twinview working perfectly, but whenever I reboot that setting gets lost, and I have to set it up again, how do I change it so that twinview is working by default?
[15:36] <iflema> SteffJay under the desktop menu System / Administration / Software Sources      where do you download from: main server?
[15:37] <SteffJay> @wookienz: Try using update manager !!
[15:37] <wookienz> i am
[15:37] <SteffJay> Any good ?
[15:37] <mib_mib> hi guys, can someone give me an easy way to create a lock file? What i mean is that i have a script, my.py that run periodically, but if it is already running, i don't want it to run again

[15:38] <image_q> hello does anyone know an apt-get repository which contains the newest samba server (or at least one that works with windows 7)
[15:38] <thomas__> Do some 1 know how to use Aircrack-ng?
[15:38] <josephnexus> ah, and then save the xorg file?
[15:38] <bazhang> thomas__, to do what
[15:38] <s3r3n1t7_> I"m looking for a decent XML Editor, but the repo has quite some options.  What were you doing?
[15:40] <s3r3n1t7_> image_q, not really ...
[15:40] <wookienz> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/c16L7RGG
[15:41] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: it was kernel panicked, I couldn't scroll up beyond them.
[15:41] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, what was that box doing? Anything out of the ordinary? What was it used for?
[15:41] <Vaevictus> it was a production web server, so there were several boxes
[15:41] <Vaevictus> er ... processes
[15:41] <Vaevictus> nothing out of the ordinary, as far as i can tell
[15:41] <image_q> did you use killall?
[15:42] <AnxiousNut> image_q, killall process_name
[15:42] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, webserver ... with? php, java, html? Did you install something not in the repo?
[15:42] <image_q> maybe killall -u root?
[15:42] <eoke> wookienz: Can you also paste bin your sources /etc/apt/sources.list
[15:42] <iflema> wookienz is that supposed to be down... because its not.......
[15:42] <AnxiousNut> what does "Current status:  1 update [-126]" after upgrading using aptitude safe-upgrade mean?
[15:43] <wookienz> iflema: ?
[15:43] <Vaevictus> image_q: if you're talking to me, ther ewas no-one logged into the box at the time... i was asleep and i'm the only root user.
[15:43] <s3r3n1t7_> AnxiousNut, that there still is 1 update waiting to be installed, which is likely depending on another.
[15:43] <AnxiousNut> s3r3n1t7_, okay then what's up with the -126?
[15:43] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: php and apache2 mostly. no java iirc, no installs outside of the repo in kernel or root user space
[15:43] <arvind_khadri> AnxiousNut, that 126 updates have been done
[15:44] <s3r3n1t7_> AnxiousNut, it's the exit code. There's a whole bunch of them, this one indicating there's still something waiting.
[15:44] <wookienz> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/unBw7cwb
[15:44] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: it's also behind a pix, and shouldn't have received any traffic other than via apache2, so remote exploit seems unlikely.
[15:44] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, hmm, that's odd. Can you check the webserver logs if something went wrong? If i remember correctly the kernel should also store a log somewhere in case of a crash, let me see if i can find where.
[15:44] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: i will look there
[15:45] <AnxiousNut> s3r3n1t7_, do you know for what reason it didnt install the remaining update?
[15:45] <ohir> Vaevictus: first check if your installed web stuff has no countrywiede holes (as recently Wordpress had ie).
[15:45] <Vaevictus> ohir: ... you think a wordpress install could crash the linux kernel?
[15:45] <AnxiousNut> arvind_khadri, then can you please tell me why there is a minus sign next to the number?
[15:45] <s3r3n1t7_> AnxiousNut, i can't know without looking. Do a dist-upgrade and check if there remain some.
[15:45] <Jef91> Anyone know how I can "unlock" a field of editing in open office?
[15:46] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, /var/log/messages if it isn't gone. There can also be a .bak version of it.
[15:46] <eoke> wookienz: I've found this which maybe of interest to you http://www.unix.com/ubuntu/123074-cant-update-use-package-manager-gpg-error-2.html
[15:47] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: i use logrotate, so i have it ... i'm looking through them
[15:47] <AdamSewell> Does anyone know how to get the mic working on a LiveCam VX-5000, specifically with Skype? Ubuntu 10.04
[15:50] <AnxiousNut> s3r3n1t7_, \o/ the dist-upgrade did it, thanks :)
[15:50] <s3r3n1t7_> AnxiousNut, you're welcome.
[15:51] <arvind_khadri> AnxiousNut, the - means that these many were done

[15:56] <cronicded> Greetings, curious if anyone is familiar with a problem with padlock-sha.ko loading on kernel boot? I've read several older and more recent BUG reports in regard to the kernel module not loading. However, in most cases individuals reporting the system works normally and it seems they're able to access their device. In my case, I am not.
[15:57] <cronicded> Specifically, I'm running Lucid and have tried several different kernel iterations via INSTALL CD repair/recovery shell
[15:57] <cronicded> In my case, the device comes up on the network, but I am unable to SSH or access a console terminal to it. The system hangs just after a message similar to: "modprobe: FATAL: Error inserting padlock_sha (/lib/modules/2.6.32-21-server/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock-sha.ko): No such device". I have tried alias'ing sha256 and aes as suggested in reports, as well as blacklisting the module entirely. When doing so, the system seems to still hang, as it i
[15:58] <zeal__> i create DEB from QT-project and it write files to home folder with wrong perms
[15:58] <wookienz> eoke: cant see a real solution there for me, so i will just download the sio and update the OS from that!
[15:58] <zeal__> can u help me?
[15:58] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: okay... i've looked through the logs.  apache doesn't show anyhting too interesting, except a bunch of child process wakeups in the access.log
[15:59] <beppo> hello
[15:59] <Vaevictus> which may be due to the fact that stuff was being killed off
[15:59] <Vaevictus> did isolate the time of the crash though
[15:59] <beppo> my system really stucks hard when the harddisk are operatting, e.g copy, unrar
[15:59] <OneQ> HI~ This is my first chat. ^^
[15:59] <wookienz> what MB/s should you see copying from one HDD to another HDD on the same system using SATAII?
[15:59] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, and the kernel messages? Those should be in /var/log/messages
[15:59] <beppo> i have a dell perc6 and lucid
[16:00] <eoke> wookienz: As far as I can gather the solution was/is to recompile that package from source and then perform an update.  However I can understand you might not be comfortable with that and in honesty I'd do it on my own machine but I'm not comfortable enough to guide you through it on your machine.
[16:00] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: no sign of them there in vl/messages
[16:00] <beppo> anyone an idea?
[16:00] <zeal__> can anybody help me with DEB creation???
[16:00] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, does the server do anything special around the time of the crash?
[16:00] <abhi_nav_> beppo, yes?
[16:00] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: nope, not even a blip around the crash time
[16:00] <wookienz> eoke: yeah thanks... where would i even begin to find the source files?
[16:00] <abhi_nav_> beppo, sorry not for you
[16:01] <ohir> Vaevictus: I think that exp_loit that rode in on Wordpress back might at ro_otkit install time
[16:01] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, hmm ... very odd ... i don't suppose you've set logrotate on the kernel messages?
[16:01] <ohir> Vaevictus: spurious oops and panic usually is either because of falling hardware or bad (unfitted) expl_oit code
[16:01] <ohir> Vaevictus: former being most popular though (unless you and your domain are quite known)
[16:02] <ohir> Vaevictus: so, yes. Your panic could be effect of roo_tkitting your box
[16:02] <s3r3n1t7_> ohir, why are you using so many _ in those words? It's not cursing ... you're helping someone ...
[16:02] <Vaevictus> ohir: yeah, i'd agree, except the panic wasn't a process: the kernel killed off all processes and still crashed.
[16:02] <tyrosine> test
[16:02] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, i'd advise checking the software you have running for some updates
[16:02] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: i'm guessing auto-ban on that kinda stuff :)
[16:02] <zeal__> how setup file perrmissions for DEB creation???
[16:02] <wookienz> eoke: screw it ill give it a go!
[16:02] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, i doubt it, the ops ain't that harsh in here
[16:02] <ohir> and now gimme that f*** id*ot who did filter by h4ck3rz W0rd5
[16:03] <bazhang> ohir, watch the language
[16:03] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: hate to upgrade stuff blindly without knowing why the crash happened :(
[16:03] <geekbuntu> anyone know how i can compress a file and have it be password protected? (tia)
[16:04] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, i didn't say upgrade immediately, but there maybe a security leak detected in one of the pieces of software you have running which could have been exploited
[16:04] <eoke> wookienz: I've found a copy at ftp://ftp.cwru.edu/pub/bash/readline-6.1.tar.gz but I'm not sure if it's the best place from which to get it.
[16:04] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: aye, true.
[16:04] <wookienz> eoke: got one, ran ./configure, and make, looks all fine... now what?
[16:04] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: is there an easy ubuntu way to do that?
[16:04] <abhi_nav> geekbuntu, truecrypt?
[16:04] <xMopx> Is there a way to get a screenshot result like this: http://i.imgur.com/X47BT.jpg - On a headless box?
[16:04] <geekbuntu> abhi_nav: just wanted to do it from a cron job
[16:04] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, apt-get update and check how many show up?
[16:04] <eoke> wookienz: Try your "sudo aptitude update" again
[16:05] <hjohnson_> hi
[16:05] <abhi_nav> geekbuntu, hmm
[16:05] <geekbuntu> abhi_nav: hopefully command line :)
[16:05] <ohir_> bazhang: did you notice the asterisks? didn't you?
[16:05] <wookienz> eoke: no joy. do i need to move the newly "make'd" file? or does it install it directly as part of the process/
[16:05] <hjohnson_> is their a way to make your custom distibution of linux?
[16:05] <abhi_nav> ok
[16:05] <zeal__> can anybody help me with DEB creation???
[16:05] <eoke> wookienz: "make install" often installs it
[16:05] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: update doesn't change thingS?'
[16:06] <bazhang> ohir_, its still not acceptable. thanks for keeping it family friendly here
[16:06] <marcuy> how can I know on what channel or device is the sound output (hw or /dev/dsp..?)
[16:06] <ohir_> bazhang: yes, you're right.
[16:06] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, apt-get update <= checks for avaiable updates, upgrade does an upgrade. So update doesn't change, upgrade does.
[16:06] <wookienz> eoke: ok that worked, but update doesnt! ;(
[16:07] <tyroPod> yo boys... im on an ipod touch wirh irssi and it sucks!! console emulator so buggy
[16:07] <eoke> wookienz: Sorry wookienz that and the incorrect date are the only two causes I'm aware of.
[16:07] <ohir_> bazhang: and now help me spot the place where h4ck3rz words are filtered, would you?
[16:07] <jqgc1> intel i7860 CPU: amd64 or ia64 ? how can i tell? (can't cat /proc/cpuinfo, no access to the machine atm)
[16:07] <bazhang> ohir_, not sure what you are trying to do, please clarify
[16:07] <wookienz> eoke: right o thanks. ISO comgin down in abut 10 mins so ill install of that
[16:07] <eoke> wookienz: Best of luck and at least you had a go which is often half the battle.
[16:08] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: doesn't mention anything afaict.
[16:08] <krabador> excuse me , to use the changes in /etc/network/interfaces, what i must restart?
[16:08] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: ends with fetched and reading package lists... Done
[16:08] <ohir_> bazhang: I got 5 times in row disconnected (and a few times more in the past) right after I used exp_loit or ro_otkit word.
[16:08] <geekbuntu> abhi_nav: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man1/zip.1.html  <--maybe?  looks like the older ubuntu distro has a zip package that has a switch "-p" that can be run from teh command line... let's hope it works in later versions too!
[16:08] <blackxored> i'm becoming lame, i used to know how to do this, but obviously i'm doing it wrong, i want this setup i want my machine to work as a gateway for my phone, i want all traffic originating from my phone to be proxied by the tor and polipo setup i've got, i want to make some iptables rules to make dports 80 and 443 coming from <phone source ip> to be i belive redirected to the 8118 port and i want to take responses aka secondary connections or an
[16:08] <blackxored> ything back to my phone, how can i achieve this
[16:09] <abhi_nav> geekbuntu, dunno about cron job. i thought you just wanted to encrypt a folder.
[16:09] <ohir_> bazhang: and I would like to know where deep packet inspection takes place
[16:09] <ohir_> bazhang: watch: exploit
[16:09] <ohir_> bazhang: watch: rootkit
[16:09] <geekbuntu> abhi_nav: the plan is to use python to compress a list of files i want to store, then a cron job to lock it up, then back it up to our works svn server (just don't want my lnks/email etc sitting out there wide open)
[16:10] <DarkStar1> lsb_release -a
[16:10] <bazhang> ohir_, no idea what you are talking about
[16:10] <abhi_nav> geekbuntu, I dont know anything about 'cron'
[16:10] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, hmm, mine shows a tally at the end. You can still check by performing a simulated update with apt-get upgrade -s (the -s is simulating, check in the help of apt-get)
[16:10] <ohir_> bazhang: ok, might be coincidence
[16:10] <geekbuntu> abhi_nav: it's okay - i have the first and third part working
[16:10] <geekbuntu> :)
[16:10] <ohir_> bazhang: just weird one
[16:11] <blackxored> anyone?
[16:11]  * ohir apologize :)
[16:11] <tyroPod> testing 123
[16:11] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: looks like a lot of stuff.mysql, apache, looks like java is on there.  sudo, lol
[16:12] <blackxored> i've tried iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8118 didn't worked, and also iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s <phone_ip> -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT <mypc_ip>:8118,. either
[16:12] <Vaevictus> s3r3n1t7_: i've got a Dr appt in a few minutes, i've gotta run.  Thanks for your help so far.
[16:12] <s3r3n1t7_> Vaevictus, you're welcome. I got to go in 10min as well. Best of luck!
[16:12] <Vaevictus> ohir: cheers! ty!
[16:12] <ohir> Vaevictus: if you have that plenty vulnerable binaries in place I would suggest that you should set this box anew
[16:12] <Vaevictus> we'll see if it doesn't happen again.  ;_;
[16:13] <Vaevictus> "set this box anew" ?
[16:13] <s3r3n1t7_> ohir, having available updates does not mean vulnerable binaries in place. Please refrain from scaring people that way.
[16:13] <ohir> Vaevictus: you do not know if someone who was getting your box succeded. Safer is to assume he or she did
[16:13] <Vaevictus> and i'm still not convinced wordpress /could/ crash the linux kernel
[16:14] <Vaevictus> ohir: you're suggesting a format and reinstall?
[16:14] <Vaevictus> just to be clear?
[16:14] <drew212> Why/how would i get a disk boot failure if I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04?
[16:14] <ohir> s3r3n1t7_: having avaliable updates means exactly that _not_ patched bineries _were_ on box when kernel panicked
[16:14] <ohir> Vaevictus: yes
[16:15] <ohir> s3r3n1t7_: the more that its 8.04. I have a few boxes running 8.04 and had not one kernel panic to date
[16:15] <s3r3n1t7_> ohir, and why do you assume they are vulnerable? Is the only reason to release an update to patch a hole? We're not using M$ you know ... And going from your assumption, you can best hide in a box and not talk to anyone. Who knows, your food and water might be poisoned.
[16:16] <ohir> s3r3n1t7_: have you read SA for sudo? What it was?
[16:16] <drew212> Why/how would i get a disk boot failure if I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04?
[16:16] <s3r3n1t7_> ohir, SA?
[16:17] <funkyHat> s3r3n1t7_: saying "M$" just makes you look childish, and actually the main reason for updates to a stable version of Ubuntu or Debian is security patches. However I still wouldn't be quite as paranoid as ohir ;)
[16:17] <ohir> s3r3n1t7_: rule of thumb is that if you may assume your box is pwned and you are not sure, you have to pay your price for not updating in time
[16:17] <s3r3n1t7_> ohir, I do not see a reason why his box would be pwnd. I would investigate first and make conclusions later.
[16:18] <ohir> s3r3n1t7_: Security Advisory. That piece of ascii that comes with patches and updates. Stating reason for update.
[16:18] <IdleOne> I think as interesting as this convo is it should be moved to #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:18] <barfster> How can I copy from one disk to another and still have a bootable system?
[16:18] <s3r3n1t7_> funkyHat, I'm only typing M$ because 1. you have to pay for it and 2. It' easier then typing Microsoft. No reason to be childish or anything.
[16:18] <abhi_nav> barfster, you want to copy whole system?
[16:18] <ohir> s3r3n1t7_: but you may not, nor can I. So for his side of the story its safer to assume box was pwnd. And do it again.
[16:19] <barfster> like dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdc
[16:19] <barfster> But is that good enough?
[16:19] <s3r3n1t7_> IdleOne, funkyHat, ohir, We obviously disagree with each other on some parts. Let's conclude it at that. agreed?
[16:19] <funkyHat> barfster: yes that is enough. but be *very* *very* careful you get the input and output the right way around
[16:19] <IdleOne> s3r3n1t7: I have no opinion on the subject I just think it is out off scope for #ubuntu
[16:19] <barfster> But will it be bootable?
[16:20] <funkyHat> barfster: yes
[16:20] <ohir> Vaevictus: my advice is to do box anew. And have it updated next time :)
[16:20] <ohir> s3r3n1t7_: ok. EOT.
[16:20] <barfster> Or will I have to change IDE sequence?
[16:20] <barfster> Will this work on a running system?
[16:20] <funkyHat> barfster: you're copying from one disc to another and then leaving both discs in the same computer? You might have to change the boot order in the bios
[16:21] <funkyHat> barfster: not likely, use a live CD

[16:22] <bazhang> Guest55282, #backtrack-linux for support not here
[16:23] <funkyHat> barfster: I would think so. Can't guarantee it will have dd, but I expect it does
[16:24] <barfster> funkyHat: are there other tools that might give the same result; Bootable copy of the running system?
[16:25] <funkyHat> barfster: clonezilla would do, and I think that handles different drive sizes better too

[16:31] <saliak> hi, i'm trying to resize my boot partition (ext3) using gparted but for some reason the "resize" option is not available.  any idea what's going on?
[16:31] <saliak> this is in a VM, FYI
[16:31] <clrg> abhi_nav: I'm currently in Switzerland, and I don't know the time difference.
[16:32] <abhi_nav> saliak, you need to unmount it first
[16:32] <saliak> and it's /dev/sda1. sorry for the repeated posts
[16:32] <saliak> ah
[16:32] <abhi_nav> ????
[16:32] <clrg> saliak: Use a live disk. I guess /dev/sda1 is / or /boot, and unmounting / while running is not a good idea
[16:32] <saliak> so how would one do that with a VM?

Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and ensure the repository address in the preferences is correct.

[16:34] <drew212> anyone able to help me reinstall grub? i'm encountering some errors
[16:34] <abhi_nav> drew212, which erros? use pastebin
[16:34] <Slasher`> does anyone know of a utility i can install to check the legitimate space on a chinese microsd card?
[16:35] <Lim0n> just mount it...
[16:35] <clrg> drew212: Supergrubdisk.org
[16:35] <abhi_nav> Lim0n, you want to change or remove that icon?
[16:35] <Lim0n> abhi_nav: remove, so applications is the left-most thing i see on that panel
[16:35] <Slasher`> it's mounted, and says 17gb (it's a 16gb card) - i was under the impression that memory cards could "fake" what they report
[16:35] <drew212> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/459888/
[16:36] <abhi_nav> Lim0n, I dont think thats possible. probably try to replace menu with mint menu. but I am not sure.
[16:36] <webPragmatist> is mount —bind old new the proper way to just "rename" a mount point/
[16:36] <Lim0n> abhi_nav: how would i go about doing that
[16:36] <drew212> abhi_nav: i'm trying to recover from a disk boot error
[16:36] <Lim0n> abhi_nav: nvm i got it, thanks
[16:36] <clrg> webPragmatist: No. Unmount, rename, mount is the proper procedure
[16:36] <webPragmatist> whats bind do ?
[16:36] <erUSUL> webPragmatist: no; mount --bind does not rename a mountpoint afaics
[16:36] <webPragmatist> it seems like it moves it
[16:37] <webPragmatist> One can also mount an already visible directory tree elsewhere:
[16:37] <abhi_nav> Lim0n, tell me how to
[16:37] <webPragmatist> oh it's more like a symlink?
[16:37] <abhi_nav> Lim0n, what you got? change or remove?
[16:37] <drew212> abhi_nav: any advice?
[16:38] <erUSUL> webPragmatist: man mount ---> Remount a subtree somewhere else (so that its contents are available in both places). See above.
[16:38] <abhi_nav> drew212, no.
[16:38] <SteffJay> http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add
[16:38] <abhi_nav> !fixgrub | drew212 try this guide:
[16:38] <SteffJay> http://paste.ubuntu.com/459887/
[16:38] <webPragmatist> erUSUL: I read that tyvm but it doesn't mean i know what it means to remount a subtree
[16:38] <drew212> abhi_nav: i'm having troubles after a fresh install of 10.04 =X
[16:39] <abhi_nav> drew212, you said that you were updating grub?
[16:39] <erUSUL> webPragmatist: it just mounts the same thing i two places. you have procfs mounted in /proc/ and want it mounted in /mnt/ubuntu/proc/ you just do « sudo mount --bind /proc/ /mnt/ubuntu/proc/ »
[16:39] <webPragmatist> I see
[16:39] <webPragmatist> thanks
[16:40] <drew212> abhi_nav: we'll i'm trying to get it to install to my MBR because i get a disk boot failure every time i start up without a disk in the drive
[16:40] <LJRuff> webPragmatist, Enter (Return) != Spacebar / Punctuation. =)
[16:40] <drew212> abhi_nav: when you reformat and do a fresh install of ubuntu it doesn't reinstall grub?
[16:40] <herrfisk> milkshake ftw !
[16:40] <erUSUL> webPragmatist: instead of using « sudo mount -t procfs /mnt/ubuntu/proc/ »
[16:40] <abhi_nav> drew212, dual booting?
[16:40] <drew212> abhi_nav: i was, but i'm not anymore...
[16:41]  * Seppoz hihi
[16:41] <drew212> abhi_nav: i encountered a problem with my windows partition, so i reformatted the whole drive, got rid of my old ubuntu and windows for a fresh install
[16:41] <LJRuff> abhi_nav, if he was dual-booting the other OS would boot in GRUB's place. Especially if it was the Legacy Operating System, which is well known for overwriting the MBR.

[16:46] <kanhiya> sebsebseb: it did not work under wine
[16:46] <MaRk-I> ghoti: for kde there's #kubuntu ;)
[16:46] <sebsebseb> kanhiya: or a Windows virtual machine with enough RAM and such.   the Ubuntu repos probably don't really have what your after, but might have.  You may be able to find something on http://www.sf.net or http://www.freshmeat.net
[16:46] <LJRuff> ghoti, your being in #ubuntu assumes you're on GNOME as GNOME is the default desktop for Ubuntu.
[16:46] <wookienz> any apt experts here. I cant update and thus upgrade. I have tried local CD's, no joy, i have changed mirrors, no luck. I think there is a bug with gpgc and lireadline.so
[16:47] <ghoti> LJRuff: Well, if my window manager was working, perhaps I'd have a System menu, but until I restart X, I can't see if that works....  I'll use Lynx.

[16:50] <AnxiousNut> xiong, i mean to make it multiline
[16:50] <PennStateJoe74> nothing in /etc/fstab about that drive.  maybe a udev rule needs to be changed or something
[16:51] <xiong> AnxiousNut, Probably not. Dunno.

[17:03] <LJRuff> . o O ( erUSUL makes me smile saying what I'm thinking sometimes...)
[17:03] <Guest59590> erUSUL, i don't know, cannot confirm it
[17:03] <Mwen____> how can i print in consolo? like a document.
[17:03] <erUSUL> :)
[17:03] <LJRuff> Mwen____, less will display it in a format that you can scroll through
[17:03] <erUSUL> Mwen____: lpr file
[17:04] <erUSUL> Mwen____: lpr is for printing to the default printer ... maybe i missunderstood you
[17:04] <tomatto_> why ubuntu runs with failsafe X server?
[17:04] <LJRuff> erUSUL, I was thinking the same thing. Mwen____ please clairfy what you mean by print
[17:05] <Guest59590> erUSUL, is this file created when i make command mistakes ? how can i reproduce this ?
[17:05] <Mwen____> printing using a printer, a default one.
[17:05] <LJRuff> Guest59590, open up your terminal and use the up arrow to scroll through commands you previously made.
[17:06] <LJRuff> Mwen____, then follow erUSUL's suggestion and usr lpr
