[16:21] <spaceneedle> I wonder if Nvidia-common -which is installed on my laptop even tho I have intel graphics--can be used to snoop around on my laptop? It's stated purpose is to "find" obsolete nvidia drivers.
[16:21] <okram> irssi :D
[16:21] <ZenIRCBot> okram: Use weechat.
[16:21] <zortness> ActionParsnip: ty, reading now
[16:21] <ActionParsnip> okram: you can use links and so forth for web access
[16:23] <bmr> anyone know if stokes hangs out here?
[16:23] <ActionParsnip> spaceneedle: its in a default install, you could run:   dpkg -l | grep nvidia    to see the packages with nvidia in the names
[16:23] <as001> when I try to start unity from console my windows lose top and I can not drag windows or do anything...
[16:24] <as001> above suggested command after login gives just /bin/sh -c /usr/bin/compiz-decorator
[16:24] <ActionParsnip> as001: hold ALT and you can drag from any point in the window.ALT+F4 will close it
[16:24] <as001> ok
[16:24] <ActionParsnip> as001: nvidia GPU by any chance?
[16:25] <as001> yes but it worket great until I changed setting in Compiz and now i can not get back
[16:25] <as001> I mean it is not hardware issue
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> as001: try resetting compiz and unity settings, may help
[16:25] <as001> how can i do that
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> as001: sometimes nvidia gpus need extra settings if the decorator vanishes
[16:26] <qazokm> as001, are you using another desktop manager besides unity
[16:26] <ActionParsnip> as001: lots of guides online, here's one I found.http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/how-to-reset-unity-to-default-settings-in-ubuntu/

[16:26] <_Marcus> How do I find a file in ubuntu?
[16:27] <_Marcus> And then output the location to my terminal
[16:28] <as001> Yes unity --reset brings back unity
[16:28] <qazokm> as001 rm -f ~/.cache/sessions/
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> as001: sometimes nvidia GPUs need these options in the video card device section: http://pastie.org/3472950
[16:28] <qazokm> disable session saving too
[16:29] <theadmin> _Marcus: Find by what criteria?

[16:29] <ActionParsnip> bilalakbar2344: this is support only
[16:29] <ikonia> bilalakbar2344: not in this channel
[16:29] <ikonia> theadmin: it's not even "suitable for #ubuntu-offtopic"
[16:29] <ikonia> bilalakbar2344: this channel is for ubuntu technical support
[16:29] <_Marcus> theadmin: I am creating an apache module, and I want to find "httpd.h".
[16:29] <sipior> "awkward"
[16:29] <theadmin> ikonia: Oh, really? Wow. Well I understand why.
[16:30] <ikonia> theadmin: not really going to use #ubuntu-offtopic to help people find women
[16:30] <bilalakbar2344> sorry
[16:30] <theadmin> _Marcus: Ah. "sudo find / -iname 'httpd.h' -print"
[16:30] <_Marcus> theadmin: Thanks
[16:30] <theadmin> _Marcus: There's also the "locate" command, but it requires to index files first and is generally harder imo
[16:31] <as001> thanks problem solved..

[16:31] <okum> would somebody be able to help me here, trying to update ubuntu 11.10.. http://oi44.tinypic.com/314xxy1.jpg
[16:32] <kermit> how do i make ubuntu stop changing my cpu speed whenever i go on battery
[16:32] <qazokm> fix your ppa okum,
[16:32] <as001> only thing which I miss in unity is start button from which I can get menus. Is there a way to put that button in unity ?
[16:32] <ikonia> okum: did you not read the instructions that said disable all PPA's before an update
[16:33] <qazokm> as001 install xubuntu /thumbsup
[16:33] <theadmin> _Marcus: If that file is not currently on your system, but can be found in your repositories, use "apt-file httpd.h"
[16:33] <okum> ikonia: no, actually i didn't.. cuz i had to install 10.10 and update to 11.10 3 diff times.........
[16:33] <ActionParsnip> okum: can you give a pastebin of the output of:   sudo apt-get update     close software centre and such first
[16:33] <_Marcus> theadmin: It said the command "apt-file" couldn't be found.
[16:34] <_Marcus> theadmin: I'll just install it
[16:34] <okum> whats a pastebin - ActionParsnip
[16:34] <_Marcus> !paste

[16:34] <charnel> how can I use my ubuntu web server -- Apache -- from another lap top with windows to debug with IE ? :)
[16:34] <^BRILL^> qualche italiano?
[16:34] <theadmin> _Marcus: Need to install that first (sudo apt-get install apt-file)
[16:35] <ActionParsnip> charnel: use ssh via putty
[16:35] <_Marcus> charnel: What, exactly, do you mean?
[16:35] <theadmin> !it | ^BRILL^
[16:35] <charnel> I want to be able to visit the page I am developing in ubuntu from my windows internet explorer not shell
[16:35] <_Marcus> charnel: Ah. Are you on the same network?
[16:35] <charnel> yes
[16:35] <^BRILL^> grazie mille ubottu =)
[16:35] <theadmin> charnel: Yes right, edit it on SSH and then view it in IE
[16:35] <_Marcus> charnel: Then just type in the private IP of it.
[16:36] <_Marcus> charnel: Of the Ubuntu machine that is
[16:36] <okram> Well ok I enabled  ASPM in my bios and now pc works fine! Where to search problem if I Disable it then loging in everything freezes and I only can run terminal. Any Ideas?
[16:36] <charnel> well thats another issue I have no idea on getting ips etc
[16:36] <_Marcus> charnel: type "ifconfig" on Ubuntu
[16:36] <okum> !pastebinit
[16:37] <_Marcus> charnel: Look for "196.*.*.*" where * is a number. Or look for 10.*.*.* if you set it up for that
[16:37] <theadmin> Bah, brb, switching from normal shell to tmux
[16:38] <okum> ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/859393/
[16:39] <vivanov> how to view number of threads created by a running process ?
[16:39] <charnel> _Marcus, I
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> okum: sudo apt-key adv --recv-key --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 5A9A06AEF9CB8DB0
[16:39] <charnel> I ve found my ip but typing it in the ie does not seem to be working
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> okum: if you'd added to PPA correctly, you wouldn't have this issue
[16:39] <_Marcus> charnel: Do you have a firewall enabled on the Ubuntu machine?
[16:40] <charnel> _Marcus : found it thank you very much for your help
[16:40] <_Marcus> charnel: Okay. You can connect now?
[16:41] <charnel> yes thank you very much.
[16:41] <okum> ActionParsnip: i'm 2 weeks new to linux >.<
[16:41] <_Marcus> okum: You'll get used to it, Linux can be easy.
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> okum: the guides are still followable....
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> okum: its a single command to add both PPA and key..
[16:42] <okram> actually I had ASPM disabled and I changed it auto, but still I don't understand where to search problem why pc goes crazy if I disable  it
[16:42] <darkknight> what i can do using nmap?
[16:43] <okum> _Marcus: yeah, i already am kinda used to it.. i just run into problems i've never had before as i was a windows user lol. ActionParsnip: ok, i did not know that simple command to add both ppa and key.. thanks for teaching me, i won't need to ask next time.
[16:43] <Somelauw> Can anyone help me uninstall wmii. When doing make uninstall, it says cc: /usr/local/lib/libixp.a: No such file or directory. But I just want to remove it
[16:43] <neersighted> scan servers
[16:43] <P1rate> Somelauw: delete the directory?
[16:44] <ActionParsnip> okum: http://www.winehq.org/download/ubuntu    states:   sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa     and you are done. You don't need this as you already have the PPA added
[16:44] <Somelauw> P1rate: That won't uninstall anything
[16:44] <Somelauw> I tried overwriting the install by using apt-get to be able to remove it, but it doesn't work that way.
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> neersighted: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ScanningHowTo#Sharing_a_Scanner_Over_a_Network
[16:45] <P1rate> Somelauw: sudo apt-get autoremove?
[16:45] <stephanb> Somelauw: you should compile something in ubuntu in the standard directorys...
[16:45] <Somelauw> But I think I need to uninstall it again to be able to properly install it.
[16:45] <theadmin> P1rate: Please don't "help" if you have no idea what you're talking about.
[16:45] <Somelauw> stephanb: What do you mean.
[16:46] <stephanb> Somelauw: use apt or if you want to compile things, compile them to /opt so you can safely remove them
[16:46] <cancer> Which is best of All kubuntu 11.10 or 10.4 LTS?
[16:46] <theadmin> cancer: The LTS is older but considered more stable.
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> cancer: there is no best
[16:46] <stephanb> cancer: depends on what you want to do with it
[16:47] <ActionParsnip> cancer: i'd go for the latest. The newer kernel and drivers may help support hardware better
[16:47] <Somelauw> stephanb: I just did a sudo make install. So it has picked the directories itself.
[16:47] <stephanb> Somelauw: yeah, thats what you did wrong, now you wont easily be able to uninstall it
[16:47] <theadmin> Somelauw: Read the Makefile for the uninstall target, see what it does, do the same :D
[16:48] <cancer> theadmin: actionparsnip: stephanb: What you all recommend. which will work in all parts of functions
[16:48] <theadmin> cancer: Both will.
[16:48] <stephanb> cancer: depends on what you want to do with it
[16:48] <ActionParsnip> cancer: both
[16:48] <tyteen4a03> Hi, is there documentation for apt that runs in the "Manual Package Selection" in Ubuntu Server install?
[16:48] <oCean> cancer: 1) this channel is not for polls. 2) That said, you can try them and find the one that fits your needs best
[16:48] <meadhikari> please help i keep getting files list file for package 'libboost-thread1.42.0' is missing final newline
[16:48] <meadhikari>  when trying to do apt-get install
[16:48] <cancer> stephanb: any example.
[16:49] <stephanb> theadmin: haha, nice suggestion concerning the makefile...
[16:49] <theadmin> stephanb: Well it looks like it does... something wrong :D
[16:49] <Somelauw> theadmin: the Makefile is hard to read (for unexperienced me). I couldn't find the place where it deletes libixp.a, which I wanted to simply uncomment.
[16:50] <cancer> oCean: linux is new for me. so it's better to get info about versions, so i don't face much errors and go to find updates or upgrades.....
[16:50] <theadmin> Somelauw: It's not hard, it's a bunch of commands. Just search for the line starting with "uninstall" and see the lines after it
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> cancer: install 11.10 and you will be fine
[16:50] <stephanb> Somelauw: if you are inexperienced you should definetely not just compile something when you don't know what you are doing, otherwise you end up with a completely fucked up system some day
[16:50] <oCean> stephanb: control your language here, please
[16:50] <theadmin> stephanb: Watch the language
[16:50] <_Marcus> I want to download the Apache source code to play around with. I will have to compile it and install it like normal. Will this affect websites, or the httpd program?
[16:50] <_Marcus> I don't want to have to remove it.
[16:51] <theadmin> _Marcus: Use PREFIX.
[16:51] <_Marcus> theadmin: ?
[16:51] <cancer> ActionParsnip: Thanks. that's what is called solution. :) Thanks to all.
[16:51] <stephanb> oCean theadmin: what do you propose instead of "fucked up"?
[16:51] <theadmin> _Marcus: You can install compiled software to a fake root, basically.
[16:51] <theadmin> stephanb: messed up
[16:51] <oCean> cancer: that might be, but this channel concentrates on solving technical issues. If you want to talk/discuss ubuntu with others, /join #ubuntu-offtopic channel
[16:51] <stephanb> _Marcus: don't do it if you dont know what you are doing
[16:52] <_Marcus> stephanb: Then how will I learn?
[16:52] <stephanb> _Marcus: first, learn how to compile something to a directory other then the standarddirectory
[16:52] <cancer> oCean: i was here yesterday for more than 4-5 hours & my problem didn't solved. so i was advised to upgrade.... that's why i was asking here.
[16:53] <stephanb> cancer: from where do you upgrade?
[16:53] <oCean> cancer: in that case you have to describe your issue/problem/question more detailed: what is it that you want to do/solve
[16:53] <cancer> stephanb: ubuntu 10.4 i think
[16:54] <stephanb> cancer: well i think there is a big chance for breakage to occur, when you upgrade that system to 11.10
[16:54] <stephanb> cancer: you could try it, but make a backup before
[16:54] <cancer> oCean: many thanks for adivse, i did more than that. :)
[16:54] <sandyeggoboy> good morning ll ...
[16:55] <sandyeggoboy> hi there i need some assistance ... i think my LANG deely-whopper is wrong
[16:55] <stephanb> _Marcus: try reading something regarding the "configure"-script and the prefix option
[16:55] <theadmin> darkknight: Why are you CTCP-ping'ing me?
[16:56] <sipior> sandyeggoboy: appears to be. "deely-whopper" isn't part of en_US :-)
[16:56] <cancer> Stephanb: i have nothing to take backup from ubuntu, coz i'm using xp instead. i was trying to learn ubuntu. but fall in drivers issue. so i planned to upgrade. i'll uninstall ubuntu 10.4.3 then i'll install kubuntu 11.10
[16:56] <sandyeggoboy> haha ... ok, well what i have for evidence is on pastebin
[16:56] <stephanb> cancer: thats a new install, not a upgrade, but i think this is definately wiser then an update
[16:57] <ActionParsnip> cancer: you can only upgrade 10.04 to 10.10 (next release) or 12.04 (LTS to LTS).
[16:57] <cancer> stephanb: now one thing i am not sure of, i even don't know about what is wubi but i have heard of virtual box as well. don't know wt different it brings.
[16:58] <sandyeggoboy> i was trying to run webhttrack and it gets to the first page and then dies. Upon investigation, i noticed a recurring problem with the LANG settings. i thought i had fixed it long ago but need to make sure,
[16:58] <sandyeggoboy> http://pastebin.com/Mk3hYpNf
[16:58] <neersighted> apt-get source apache2-mpm-prefork
[16:58] <neersighted> oops, was reading up
[16:59] <cancer> ActionParsnip: where can i learn basic about linux (kubuntu)
[16:59] <cancer> ?
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> cancer: same place you learned windows
[17:00] <oCean> !manual | cancer
[17:00] <stephanb> cancer: there are several free ebooks
[17:00] <cancer> ActionParsnip: i learned window by practicing from the time of Dos, win 3.1 and so on. but stoped on xp. i like command prompt and linux is full of it.
[17:00] <sipior> sandyeggoboy: should be LANG, not LANGN, surely?
[17:00] <ActionParsnip> cancer: same way then. You learned by using the OS, that's on of the greatest ways to learn Linux too
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> cancer: you can use CLI in XP, it's called powersell
[17:01] <cancer> ActionParsnip: but it seem bit confusing to me. maybe coz i have not tried it yet.
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> *powershell
[17:02] <theadmin> cancer: "man intro" is a good start for basic commands.
[17:02] <ActionParsnip> cancer: indeed, just use the OS and you'll be ok
[17:02] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: PowerShell was introduced in Vista, no?
[17:02] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: i believe its usable in XP
[17:02] <stephanb> powershell doesn't even come close to what you can do with a unix shell, tough
[17:02] <oem> i came here to ask: would someone tell me how to navigate/browse to the .local folder?
[17:03] <zykotick9> stephanb: +1
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> stephanb: I'd say it was very close. We use it to check SQL databases using redgate
[17:03] <Treat1> I'm having printing issues, help needed.
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> stephanb: it will re-kick off backups if they fail and send a nice report
[17:03] <stephanb> ActionParsnip: in my opinion you cant compare it, it's like comparing a bycycle to a ferrari, just because both have wheels
[17:03] <Jelou> Hello. Is there any way to reset usb ports without restarting the computer?
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: wassup.
[17:04] <ActionParsnip> stephanb: depends how good you are with powershell dude
[17:04] <stephanb> ActionParsnip: has it something like pipes?
[17:04] <theadmin> ActionParsnip, stephanb: Powershell discussion is... way offtopic :P
[17:04] <ActionParsnip> stephanb: indeed
[17:05] <arshzingh> I was using ssh with the terminal..... a process was running and it suddenly stopped...... its stuck ... ehat do i do now ????
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> stephanb: you can tell powershell to look at the hardware of every PC and  reboot any system with less than 2Gb ram, for example :)
[17:05] <Treat1> After a fresh install I can't install my wireless network printer, it doesn't even show up.
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: can you ping it's IP?
[17:05] <stephanb> ActionParsnip: the difference is, on unix the shell was first and everything else got build around it, the powershell just got introduced
[17:06] <Treat1> I've put the ip in the box and no printer is found
[17:06] <ActionParsnip> stephanb: doesn't make it lesser
[17:06] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: but can you ping it?
[17:06] <Treat1> the printer works on every other computer on the network
[17:06] <oCean> stephanb, ActionParsnip. Please drop the offtopic
[17:06] <ActionParsnip> oCean: done and done
[17:06] <oCean> thanks
[17:06] <Treat1> from .cli?
[17:06] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: yes
[17:06] <arshzingh> ActionParsnip: Can you help with my ques above?
[17:07] <_Marcus> When I install this Apache from source, will it be a service?
[17:07] <_Marcus> Like, when I type "sudo service apache2"
[17:07] <Treat1> what is the code exactly?
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> arshzingh: kill it via it's PID
[17:07] <_Marcus> Will it call the new one?
[17:07] <_Marcus> Even though I didn't put it in the default place
[17:07] <stephanb> _Marcus: yes
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: ping ip.of.printer.here -c 4
[17:07] <stephanb> _Marcus: no
[17:07] <stephanb> _Marcus: eheheh
[17:07] <_Marcus> stephanb: Yes, or no?
[17:07] <_hardy_> hi to all . I am having issue with booting Ubuntu over windows
[17:08] <arshzingh> ActionParsnip: i ran the sh command via ssh ..... its not giving any output
[17:08] <_hardy_> I have a live CD . but i dont know how to fix ubuntu using it
[17:08] <stephanb> _Marcus: no, but you can start the initscript in the place you installed it, like "/opt/etc/init.d/apache2 start" if you installed it to "/opt"
[17:08] <ActionParsnip> arshzingh: what was the command you ran?
[17:08] <archo43> oioioi
[17:08] <arshzingh> ActionParsnip : sh somefile.sh
[17:09] <ActionParsnip> arshzingh: ok then run:  ps -ef | grep somefile      what is output>
[17:09] <stephanb> i'm heading off, bye
[17:09] <zykotick9> arshzingh: did you try CTRL+C?
[17:09] <_hardy_> hey guys... need help in urgent basis...
[17:09] <ActionParsnip> _hardy_: details are useful
[17:10] <hex20dec> _hardy_, Ask your question.
[17:10] <_hardy_> ActionParsnip: I am having issue in booting up ubuntu
[17:10] <_hardy_> I hav installed over windows
[17:10] <Treat1> Yes, it worked, I was able to ping the printer
[17:10] <ActionParsnip> _hardy_: ok, what happens when you boot?
[17:10] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: ok what make and model printer?
[17:10] <arshzingh> zykotick9: That will stop  it. ..  should i stop and run the sh comand again
[17:10] <_hardy_> It was worked well yesterday night..  But after installing some flash plugin it stopped working.
[17:10] <Treat1> Canon Pixma MX882
[17:10] <_hardy_> I am just getting a ubuntu loading screen
[17:11] <zykotick9> arshzingh: i thought that's what you wanted to do?  stop it?  is that not what you want?
[17:11] <ActionParsnip> _hardy_: what GPU do you use?
[17:11] <_hardy_> and it flickers back to console kind of screen and again back to ubuntu loading scrreen
[17:11] <_hardy_> GPU ? ??
[17:11] <_hardy_> ubuntu11.10
[17:11] <ActionParsnip> _hardy_: video card chip
[17:11] <arshzingh> zykotick9: i want the sh command to be completed
[17:12] <zykotick9> arshzingh: then DON'T CTRL+C it!
[17:12] <_hardy_> windows is working fine.
[17:12] <arshzingh> zykotick9: then what ?
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: ok under network printers select to find the printer and type the IP in that box
[17:12] <zykotick9> arshzingh: wait until it finishes
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> _hardy_: windows is a completely different OS, with different support. So is of no value
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> _hardy_: what video chip do you use?
[17:13] <Treat1> No printer was found at that address
[17:13] <arshzingh> zykotick9: it has stopped giving any output ....
[17:13] <_hardy_> I am not sure. But its AMD
[17:13] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: try the other options then
[17:13] <_hardy_> not know in details. :(
[17:13] <ActionParsnip> _hardy_: try the boot option:  nomodeset
[17:13] <zykotick9> arshzingh: depends on the script you are using.  either: end it or wait.
[17:13] <_hardy_> ok.. Anything with Live CD ?
[17:14] <Treat1> this has always been a breeze, I don't understand why it's such an issue now
[17:14] <_hardy_> Coz the only thing I have right now is this LiveCD
[17:14] <ActionParsnip> _hardy_: yes you will need that in the live CD to get the desktop more than likely too
[17:14] <arshzingh> zykotic9: sent you a scrnshot
[17:14] <_hardy_> ActionParsnip: Is there anyway to load up my ubuntu from this live CD ?
[17:15] <Treat1> It's always come up automatically.
[17:15] <ActionParsnip> _hardy_: you can chroot and the commands you run will afftect the installed OS. I suggest you reboot and hold SHIFT and you can then add the boot option there
[17:15] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: do the other options work?
[17:15] <grandrew> hi all! Is there any decent "find files" tool available for ubuntu? Some time ago it was possible to search for files dated/modified from xx/xx/xx to yy/yy/yy (by date) but I cannot find anything with UI to accomplish this :-\
[17:16] <ActionParsnip> grandrew: find in terminal is pretty sweet, or you can run: sudo updatedb   then use the locate command to find files
[17:16] <_hardy_> ActionParsnip: ok last thing. I am using dual boot. Means I have installed ubuntu using wbui. So any tips or suggestions regarding that ?
[17:16] <Treat1> I don't know what other opitons you are talking about
[17:16] <_hardy_> in account to fix the problem
[17:16] <ActionParsnip> grandrew: find has an age option in it
[17:17] <Treat1> Trying LPD....
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> _hardy_: oh jeez that adds all kinds of extra stuff
[17:17] <tedi> HI all, Im quite new to Ubuntu and Linux in general. Anyone know why I cant use Gnome, when I try start it with gnome shell it just goes black and the screen gets no signal.
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: in the add printer dialogue....
[17:17] <theadmin> tedi: No GPU drivers?
[17:17] <_hardy_> :( But i need to do that anyhow today to get all my data..
[17:17] <tedi> I installed them through the additional drivers program
[17:18] <bmr> stokachu, dude
[17:18] <grandrew> ActionParsnip, I just wanted anything with graphical UI :-(
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> grandrew: why?
[17:18] <bmr> stokachu, sorry about the "legal eagles".. :-/
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: http://blog.kenweiner.com/2011/04/using-canon-pixma-mx882-all-in-one-with.html
[17:18] <grandrew> ActionParsnip, because I thought ubuntu has made a step towards the usability .. at last :(
[17:19] <kirill_> Всем хай
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> grandrew: there are searching apps but I don'y knoe them personally. find is very usable...
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> grandrew: ust because you are  typing stuff doesn't make it not usable...
[17:19] <_hardy_> ActionParsnip: If you have any tutorial or something just then plz give me the link. I will manage my way.
[17:19] <tedi> theadmin: Just checked, got GPU drivers installed and activated.
[17:19] <grandrew> kirill_, тебе наверное надо на #ubuntu-ru
[17:19] <NitroTiger> I had custom xorg.conf  for SyncMaster 204B how I apply it to 11.10 to get screen working normally?
[17:20] <kirill_> А почему
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> grandrew: sudo find/ -type f -mtime +3       willfind all files older than 3 days...
[17:21] <OEMcolincolinco> can someone tell me how to browse to the .local folder? I thought I'd see it under home/myusername but I don't
[17:21] <Treat1> Thanks, I'll work on it for a min and get back to you later.
[17:21] <grandrew> ActionParsnip, yes it does make it less usable since you have to dig in man pages instead of just clicking and doing it
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> OEMcolincolinco: press CTRL+H and you will see the hidden folders
[17:21] <grandrew> kirill_, здесь общаются только на английском
[17:22] <ActionParsnip> grandrew: there are sample commands online, that's where I got that. never used a man page
[17:22] <kirill_> А где можно с девченками попробовать не подскажешь
[17:22] <tedi> No got any other ideas why the screen goes black when running Gnome, drivers are there and working. Not sure where else to check :<

[17:22] <jazzz22> bonjour
[17:23] <MonkeyDust>
[17:23] <thingamagic> salut a tous!!(je suis tous nouveau!)
[17:23] <ActionParsnip> !fr
[17:23] <jazzz22> un petit soucis ici pour transfère une boite mail volumineuse depuis évolution vers mac osx
[17:23] <oCean> !ru | kirill_
[17:23] <jazzz22> quelqu'un peu m'aider?
[17:23] <oCean> jazzz22: /join #ubuntu-fr
[17:24] <thingamagic> hey ubuntu poeple
[17:24] <jazzz22> oh sorry
[17:24] <_Marcus> Hello
[17:24] <jazzz22> i think i was there
[17:24] <alexman731> Heeeeeyyy
[17:25] <thingamagic> i'm looking for a meeting chat is it here?
[17:26] <_Marcus> thingamagic: This is the Ubuntu support channel. I don't see why your meeting would be here.
[17:26] <compdoc> thingamagic, welcoem to the meeting!
[17:26] <oCean> thingamagic: this is ubuntu tech support. If you're looking for the meeting channel, then  /join #ubuntu-meeting
[17:27] <thingamagic> where should i go? <_Marcus>
[17:27] <theadmin> oCean: I don't think that's what they mean by "meeting", most likely they mean "dating" or something... Which is not even on Freenode :D
[17:27] <theadmin> oCean: Maybe there are channels like that, I dunno of course, but
[17:27] <thingamagic> thank you!! :)
[17:28] <_Marcus> thingamagic: I don't know where your meeting is supposed to be. Didn't someone tell you?
[17:28] <sandyeggoboy> i am hvaing a meeting here ....
[17:28] <sandyeggoboy> just me and my guinea pig....
[17:28] <oCean> ok, let's move back on topic please
[17:29] <ActionParsnip> grandrew: if you can learn CLI stuff, it will benefit you later
[17:30] <NitroTiger> can anybody help me to get  SyncMaster 204B working
[17:30] <ActionParsnip> NitroTiger: what video card?
[17:30] <NitroTiger> intel mobile 4
[17:30] <vicivaci> How do I list my internal LAN ip via command line? :P
[17:31] <zykotick9> vicivaci: ifconfig
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> NitroTiger: and what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[17:31] <theadmin> vicivaci: ifconfig, among others, will have that info
[17:31] <hv>  /join #hbase
[17:31] <vicivaci> Is it possible I dont have one?
[17:31] <vicivaci> Im using a ECS
[17:31] <kane77> how can I find all files in a given directory, but only list each file once when it has more than 1 hardlink?
[17:31] <theadmin> vicivaci: It's possible if you're not connected or if connection is broken pretty much
[17:31] <NitroTiger> ActionParsnip: oneiric!?!
[17:32] <thingamagic> i've another question : is there a french channel for meeting?
[17:32] <ActionParsnip> vicivaci: ifconfig eth0 | grep inet | cut -f2 -d ":" | cut -f1 -d " "
[17:32] <theadmin> thingamagic: No, all the official Ubuntu meetings are held in English.
[17:32] <vicivaci> ActionParsnip: That gives me my "internet" IP
[17:32] <thingamagic> ok thanks!! :)
[17:32] <vicivaci> Upon reading the ifconfig, All i can find is localhost and that "inet" ip
[17:32] <ActionParsnip> vicivaci: yes youo asked for "internal LAN ip"
[17:33] <theadmin> vicivaci: "inet addr" IS what you are looking for
[17:33] <vicivaci> Hmm, I mean 192.x.x.x :P
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> NitroTiger: you may need an xorg.conf file to define the display if it is not being detected.
[17:33] <vicivaci> if there is one using a ECS (im clueless)
[17:33] <vicivaci> hmm ok
[17:34] <theadmin> vicivaci: It's normally in the for m of 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> vicivaci: you mean the WAN IP you would connect to to access the system
[17:34] <vicivaci> Yes, im trying to link my mysql config file to php
[17:34] <vicivaci> And it says in the documentation if i just use localhost
[17:34] <vicivaci> it wont work
[17:34] <vicivaci> setting the bind-adress*
[17:34] <vicivaci> I'm looking for my own internal IP adress to clarify :)
[17:35] <NitroTiger> I have it from old ubuntu.
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> vicivaci: then thats not your internel IP you need is it...
[17:35] <vicivaci> No, probably not, sorry
[17:35] <grandrew> ActionParsnip, yep I've googled-out the solution: 1. create a temp file, touch it to DATE1, 2. create a second tmp file with DATE2, then find -cnewer ./date1 ... ! -cnewer ./date2... yep, THATS user friendly!?!
[17:35] <ankitb> hye folks, i want to known where pkt loss happened in the loss...plz suggest me any tool and method for this...
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> vicivaci: IP=`wget -q -O - http://ip.keithscode.com`; echo $IP      will give your routers WAN IP. .If you ask for the wrong thing youo will get the wrong reply
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> grandrew: i'd say so
[17:36] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Isn't that overkill? What's the point of assigning the output to a variable and echo'ing the variable when you can just run the command you gave in ``'s?
[17:36] <vicivaci> ActionParsnip: That gives me the same IP adress
[17:37] <MonkeyDust> vicivaci  try curl ifconfig.me
[17:38] <vicivaci> Same IP
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: just  what I found online...
[17:39] <vicivaci> I think I mentioned it but I'm using an Elastic cloud server if it bears any relevance
[17:39] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Ah, mk
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: plus could copy and paste the  command into scripts etc and use it later :)
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> vicivaci: i'd contact your provider then
[17:40] <vicivaci> okay thanks all
[17:40] <IpSe_DiXiT> hi, how do i upgrade my old version of amule to 2.3.1 on ubuntu lucid lynx 10.04 LTS ??
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | IpSe_DiXiT maybe there is a PPA
[17:40] <grandrew> vicivaci, you may use localhost bind address if you do not plan to expose the service to the internet, in other cases you should choose one of your assigned IP addresses from 'ifconfig'
[17:40] <theadmin> MonkeyDust: That's a neat site, thanks :)
[17:41] <IpSe_DiXiT> ActionParsnip: thank u but i dunno whatcha talking about, would u mind explaining, im a noob and have no idea
[17:41] <f3bruary> whoami
[17:41] <f3bruary> !whoami
[17:41] <f3bruary> @whoami
[17:42] <MonkeyDust> glad you like it theadmin  :)

[17:43] <dtcrshr> hello everyone, im trying to install ubuntu on the netbooks bought to lend for the users here in the college library
[17:43] <theadmin> MonkeyDust: Thanks.
[17:44] <dtcrshr> but all of them, with either ubuntu or mint instalation after some minutes they simply crash, with a bunch of errors, the last being - "panic ocurred, switching back to text console". all are brand new hp mini netbooks, all came with windows 7 working like a charm, no disk / hardware issues
[17:45] <dtcrshr> does ubuntu work on netbooks? is something with the kernel? im installing the latest 11.10 32bits version
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> dtcrshr: yes it works fine
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> dtcrshr: is the RAM healthy?
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> dtcrshr: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[17:45] <dtcrshr> iv installed via usb stick
[17:46] <dtcrshr> but used the same usb stick to install another desktop pc here thats up and running for 3 days
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> dtcrshr: so its an installed OS, or are you getting the issue during install?
[17:46] <dtcrshr> no, the install goes fine, its on the normal use
[17:46] <dtcrshr> with, or without oppened apps
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> dtcrshr: what video chip does it use?
[17:47] <dtcrshr> well, didnt tested the ram, but I unboxed all of them last week, they are all new
[17:47] <dtcrshr> the video listed in lspci is - VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation N10 Family Integrated Graphics Controller
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> dtcrshr: what is the make and model of the netbook?
[17:51] <dtcrshr> its the latest hp mini, no model specified on the box
[17:51] <ActionParsnip> dtcrshr: anything on the bottom?
[17:51] <dtcrshr> there are some similar issues on the google
[17:51] <f3bruary> ActionParsnip, thanks
[17:52] <|bird|> hello

[17:57] <ActionParsnip> minnal: also try turning OFF USB legacy mode. Source: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1416614
[17:57] <tsunami_>  strange thing... a cannot see what I have on another partition (a 60gig extf4) but if I ask qBittorrent to open destination folder (that Im using for downloads on this other partition) it opens the directory but I cant see anything else but that directory and I can only see the directories, not the files... any suggestion? strange behavior ubuntu has today..
[17:57] <minnal> tried the usb legacy support off
[17:57] <minnal> no change
[17:57] <minnal> thing is same thing also happens even with fedora installation
[17:58] <minnal> but keyboard work in win xp or bios

[17:58] <tsunami_> do not have permissions to write on the windows partition and on usb external discs which is a pain i opened thunar with root access but it says there is no trash directory when i try to delete something... any suggestions?
[17:58] <dtcrshr> ActionParsnip: hp mini 210
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> minnal: try changing the USB option, as I said.
[17:59] <minnal> ActionParsnip: I have tried that already, as said no change
[17:59] <dtcrshr> found this topic  - http://askubuntu.com/questions/92212/panic-occurred-switching-back-to-text-console
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> minnal: do you have the latest BIOS?
[18:00] <dtcrshr> regarding kernel 3.0 to 3.1 upgrade, with a simple apt-get update / upgrade ill get this kernel or do i have to compile it by hand / choose an older ubuntu version
[18:00] <minnal> that I'll need to check actually
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> dtcrshr: get fully updated in text mode, may help
[18:00] <dtcrshr> doing this
[18:00] <minnal> but the usb issue is with grub, don't think installation disk loads grub at start
[18:01] <dtcrshr> ill let you know
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> !bootoptions | dtcrshr
[18:01] <minnal> but thanks for help, I'll continue my battle :)
[18:01] <dtcrshr> just for record, iv installed the ubuntu with the normal "fully use disk" option, theres no other OS on the netbooks
[18:03] <tsunami_> any suggestions on this issue?
[18:03] <tsunami_> I have lots of data that i cannot access :(((
[18:04] <krycek> sudo reboot -V
[18:05] <dtcrshr> ActionParsnip: what is the graphic environment on ubuntu + unity? lightdm?
[18:05] <dtcrshr> does something as /etc/init.d/lightdm restart works?
[18:05] <tsunami_> krycek: is that for me?
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> dtcrshr: default oneiric uses Unity and will use lightdm as the login manager
[18:05] <krycek> tsunami_: sry its 420 over here
[18:05] <exco> how do I find out where grub is installed
[18:05] <Liran> hi guys, is there any way of installing firefox from firefox-10.0.2.tar.bz2 in a way that the system will recognize it as default browser?
[18:06] <exco> what drive/partition?
[18:06] <zykotick9> dtcrshr: "sudo service lightdm restart" is the upstart version of your init.d above.
[18:06] <knope> any one here play minecraft?
[18:06] <dtcrshr> thanks zykotick9 , ill keep this noted
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> tsunami_: is the partition healthy? When you last disconnected the device, did you safely remove it or just yank it out?
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> !anyone | knope
[18:06] <joallard> I have the source. How do I compile a driver with options?
[18:06] <dtcrshr> im still lost in the gnome - lightdm - unity thing
[18:06] <knope> :(
[18:06] <theadmin> exco: This is a bit messy but: for i in /dev/sd* ; do echo $i: $(file -s $i) | grep -i grand ; done
[18:06] <knope> bad script
[18:07] <knope> didn't really apply to my type of question'
[18:07] <tsunami_> ActionParsnip: the partition is on the harddrive where the system is installed
[18:07] <ActionParsnip> knope: it does, directly
[18:07] <mobhero> Hi, No such map passwd.byname. reason can't bind to server which server this domain error in nis ubuntu 10.04
[18:07] <mobhero> can u please help on this..
[18:07] <knope> no i was looking to branch out and socialize
[18:07] <Liran> hi guys, is there any way of installing firefox from firefox-10.0.2.tar.bz2 in a way that the system will recognize it as default browser?
[18:08] <knope> minecraft is a game
[18:08] <knope> people play it from time to time..
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> knope: asking if anybody does something is redundant. If you ask your next question, the people who DO will reply
[18:08] <neersighted> update-alternitives --config www-browser
[18:08] <knope> this is an open ubuntu chat
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> knope: no its support only
[18:08] <theadmin> knope: You know, not everyone here is talking to YOU
[18:08] <knope> o
[18:08] <krycek> oo
[18:08] <CFHowlett> !who
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> knope: it tells you when you joined the channel...
[18:08] <knope> no im speaking with ... im an irc-tard
[18:08] <mobhero> Hi, No such map passwd.byname. reason can't bind to server which server this domain error in nis ubuntu 10.04
[18:08] <neersighted> That much is obvious
[18:08] <theadmin> !patience | mobhero
[18:09] <bLiNdRaGe> what's the next LTS release? 12.04?
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> knope: you can free chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:09] <CFHowlett> !precise|blindrage
[18:09] <dtcrshr> knope: so you should try to find a #minecraft channel or something, maybe on the irc gaming servers, as quakenet or rizon. freenode is all about nerdysh techy stuff, 99% dont wanna make new friends
[18:09] <joallard> I have the source. How do I compile a driver with options?
[18:09] <bLiNdRaGe> nice didn't know that trigger
[18:09] <exco> theadmin, not found
[18:09] <bLiNdRaGe> thanks CFHowlett
[18:09] <theadmin> exco: What not found?
[18:09] <neersighted> knope: irc://irc.esper.net/minecraft
[18:09] <exco> theadmin, the disk where grub2 is ...
[18:10] <krycek> is there a terminal minecraft out?
[18:10] <theadmin> krycek: No, and I don't think there will ever be. You can run Minecraft Server without gui though
[18:10] <krycek> theadmin: k
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> Liran: there is a ppa if you want
[18:10] <theadmin> exco: Oh... probably it's not installed at all?
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> Liran: what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[18:11] <exco> theadmin, well, the machine boots so it better be ;-) and /dev/sd* are where the disks are
[18:11] <Liran> ActionParsnip, i don't want the ppa because it updated long after the regular release
[18:11] <exco> theadmin,  can't I check some grub2 conf or the like
[18:11] <Liran> ActionParsnip, im on oneiric
[18:11] <exco> also update-initramfs works so that should know where it installs grub2 to
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> Liran: I see, you can extract the file in /opt    then symlink the firefox biary in /usr/bin   and it will be runnable
[18:12] <krycek> maybe chmod -x as well ./.
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> Liran: I suggest you use an obscure name so other apps don't overwrite the file
[18:12] <steven_reiden> :(
[18:12] <Liran> ActionParsnip, alredy did that. ~/firefox and ive symlinked it to /usr/bin
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> Liran: did you uninstall the firefox package too?
[18:13] <Liran> ActionParsnip, it works from terminal when i run: firefox but the system open web pages links with gedit
[18:13] <tsunami_> ActionParnsip: I can see the partitions , but when I open the directories in /media/7738-E691 there is nothing there. never happened before, yesterday was ok
[18:13] <theadmin> exco: Hm, try this: sudo find /dev -name "sd*" -exec file -s '{}' \;
[18:13] <Liran> ActionParsnip, yes ive uninstalled it
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> Liran: when the package is updated it will overwrite the link file
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> Liran: cool, then you need a firefox.desktop in /usr/share/applications   and it will be runnable from dash etc
[18:14] <Liran> ActionParsnip, i didn't get the last part
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> Liran: the apps in dash are the files in /usr/share/applications
[18:15] <exco> theadmin, http://pastebin.com/f3RgHfjJ
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> Liran: so you will need to make one to launch your firefox binary
[18:15] <Liran> ActionParsnip, how i do that?
[18:15] <joallard> How do I build a driver with options?
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> Liran: gksudo gedit /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop
[18:16] <theadmin> exco: I don't see anything with grub here, weird.
[18:16] <fairuz_> Hi, on this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Debmirror , at this step -> Set up your keyring to correctly verify Release signatures, what if I want to do a mirror host for precise? What should I modify?
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> Liran: http://paste.ubuntu.com/859517/    that is the default file, you can change it as you want. The Exec= line may need changing and the icon may need downloading
[18:16] <fairuz_> Thanks
[18:16] <theadmin> exco: Sorry, no idea
[18:16] <exco> theadmin, indeed
[18:17] <steven_reiden> quien habla español
[18:17] <theadmin> !es | steven_reiden
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> Liran: good job I forgot to install the junky browser, or I wouldn't have had that file:)
[18:18] <Liran> ActionParsnip, 10x man i'll try this!
[18:18] <steven_reiden> ok thank
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> Liran: its how you add any command in dash, you may have the icon missing but you can download one and put it in /usr/share/icons
[18:20] <Liran> ActionParsnip, what do you mean by "dash"? sry for being n00b
[18:20] <tsunami_> ActionParsnip: any suggestion to diagnose my problem?
[18:20] <tsunami_>  strange thing... a cannot see what I have on another partition (a 60gig extf4) but if I ask qBittorrent to open destination folder (that Im using for downloads on this other partition) it opens the directory but I cant see anything else but that directory and I can only see the directories, not the files... any suggestion? strange behavior ubuntu has today..
[18:20] <theadmin> Liran: dash is the unity menu thingo
[18:21] <ActionParsnip> Liran: when you press the windows key, the dash is loaded
[18:21] <Treat1> now I have a tar.gz file that I don't know what to do with, everything that I read online say's do this or that and nothing is working
[18:22] <theadmin> Treat1: If you don't know what to do with it, leave it alone. Install software from repositories (Ubuntu Software Center provides a way to access those, for instance)
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: what is the file for?
[18:22] <Click20644> hi
[18:22] <Treat1> printer driver
[18:22] <CFHowlett> Click20644   greetings
[18:22] <theadmin> Treat1: Doh. HP?
[18:22] <Treat1> actually you told me where to get it
[18:23] <Treat1> Canon
[18:23] <Click20644> CFHowlett where I take a bnc ?
[18:23] <Liran> ActionParsnip, ohh lol i use gnome shell
[18:23] <ActionParsnip> Treat1: extract it and there will be more achives in, one will be debs, extract that and install the debs
[18:23] <CFHowlett> Click20644   "bnc" ?
[18:23] <ActionParsnip> Liran: same difference
[18:23] <Click20644> bouncer
[18:24] <neersighted> znc <3
[18:24] <CFHowlett> Click20644   where do you take a bouncer?  That's unfamiliar ubuntu terminology to me.  Sorry.
[18:24] <Liran> ActionParsnip, really thanks a lot for the help man!
[18:24] <Treat1> typically software center picks it up and does the rest, I'm using Lubuntu and it doesn't have software center
[18:24] <Click20644> oke
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> Liran: np, thanks for the gratitude :)
[18:25] <dtcrshr> oh crap, on the middle of the apt-get upgrade it gave me the panic again, on the reboot the wireless stoped working
[18:26] <exco__> theadmin,  sudo grub-probe -t device /boot/grub
[18:26] <exco__> theadmin, that did it and it's in sdd2 ...
[18:26] <theadmin> exco__: Great, GLaD you figured it out :D
[18:27] <tsunami_> hey guys, any idea why I cant see what I have on other partitions? yesterday everything was ok...
[18:27] <Treat1> typically software center picks it up and does the rest, I'm using Lubuntu and it doesn't have software center
[18:27] <michael_> a tutti
[18:27] <michael_> ciao a tutti
[18:27] <CFHowlett> !it|michael
[18:28] <steven_reiden> hello
[18:28] <theadmin> Treat1: You can install it easily: sudo apt-get install software-center
[18:28] <steven_reiden> mens
[18:28] <CFHowlett> steven_reiden   greetings
[18:28] <theadmin> Treat1: I beleive you're looking for the drivers tool though (jockey-gtk)
[18:28] <tedi> Hello, need some help with installing my grafic drivers, anyone know any good tutorial
[18:29] <milen8204> what was the name of "C" compilator and debuger in Linux
[18:29] <theadmin> tedi: The "Additional Drivers" tool will install the drivers for most major manufacturers, i.e. Nvidia and AMD
[18:29] <CFHowlett> milen8204   gcc IIRC
[18:29] <ssta> milen8204: gcc/gdb usually
[18:29] <theadmin> tedi: gcc and gdb, respectively.
[18:29] <milen8204> ok thanks CFHowlett AND ssta
[18:29] <DarsVaeda> when inserting a crypted device i get "missing cryptsetup" which package do i need again?
[18:30] <tedi> theadmin: hmm then it should be installed since I used it, sadly cant still use the Gnome Shell :<
[18:31] <knope> compiz+gnome=:)
[18:31] <theadmin> !find cryptsetup | DarsVaeda
[18:31] <theadmin> DarsVaeda: I take it it's cryptsetup
[18:31] <DarsVaeda> oh that name...that was obvious ^^
[18:32] <DarsVaeda> can't believe its still missing
[18:32] <tsunami_>  strange thing... a cannot see what I have on another partition (a 60gig extf4) but if I ask qBittorrent to open destination folder (that Im using for downloads on this other partition) it opens the directory but I cant see anything else but that directory and I can only see the directories, not the files... any suggestion? strange behavior ubuntu has today..
[18:32] <dtcrshr> after iv apt-get update / upgrade, i have this message - 0 packages..... 4 not updated
[18:32] <tsunami_> do not have permissions to write on the windows partition and on usb external discs which is a pain i opened thunar with root access but it says there is no trash directory when i try to delete something... any suggestions?
[18:32] <dtcrshr> this are linux-generic, linux-headers-generic, linux-image-generic and software center
[18:32] <dtcrshr> is there a way to upgrade and force this 4 to be updated?
[18:33] <theadmin> dtcrshr: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[18:33] <CFHowlett> dtcrshr   one does not simply force packages...
[18:33] <theadmin> dtcrshr: "upgrade" does not care about deps when upgrading, so use dist-upgrade
[18:33] <dtcrshr> hm ok
[18:34] <dtcrshr> cause im having this annoying "panic, switching back to text console" so i need to "UPDATE ALL THE PACKAGES!"
[18:34] <dtcrshr> one does not simply gives me a text mode panic
[18:34] <dtcrshr> :D
[18:34] <CFHowlett> lol!
[18:34] <dtcrshr> 9gag for the win
[18:34] <theadmin> ...
[18:35] <Treat1> Thanks, you guy's/gal's always come though!!!AWESOME!!!You make ubuntu a great OS
[18:36] <minnal> ActionParsnip: just letting you know, the BIOS was old and upgrading it helped with the issue, now keyboard works just nicely, thank you for your help in reminding about bios upgrade :)
[18:36] <spook_> chao
[18:36] <spook_> llego mi chica
[18:36] <spook_> see you all
[18:36] <tsunami_> ActionParsnip: any suggestion to diagnose my problem?
[18:36] <Escherial> hey, what would you all recommend for editing files on a remote machine? kate has a tendency to freeze up or become slow if the connection isn't so great, and it has no way to restore the connection if it's broken
[18:36] <Escherial> i do like kate, though, so something like it would be nice
[18:37] <theadmin> Escherial: vim
[18:37] <auronandace> Escherial: why not nano, far less overhead
[18:38] <the_hydra> hi all
[18:38] <CFHowlett> the_hydra   greetings
[18:38] <the_hydra> what is your recommended web based system monitoring?
[18:38] <the_hydra> cacti? nagios? zabbix?
[18:39] <the_hydra> CFHowlett: hi
[18:39] <CFHowlett> the_hydra   I'm not an admin, but I see frequent references to nagios
[18:40] <the_hydra> CFHowlett: hm i see
[18:40] <Escherial> theadmin, auronandace: i was hoping for a graphical editor, unless you're recommending gvim
[18:40] <the_hydra> CFHowlett: i got same impression too, especially since LinuxQuestions latest polling list nagios as #1 in that category
[18:40] <Escherial> but fair enough, i probably should learn to use vim someday outside of simply being able to type, save, and quit
[18:40] <CFHowlett> the_hydra   well then - asked and answered!
[18:41] <theadmin> Escherial: gvim is okay too. Try cream as well.
[18:41] <the_hydra> CFHowlett: thanks :)
[18:41] <CFHowlett> the_hydra   have fun/be safe
[18:41] <Escherial> my main concern is the performance over ssh...do they choke like kate does? can you restore your session if it's broken (e.g. if your laptop goes to sleep)?
[18:41] <auronandace> Escherial: no offence but if you are editing text over a remote connection why have the overhead of a gui?
[18:41] <zykotick9> Escherial: if you using a terminal based editor with screen - then yes
[18:42] <zykotick9> s/using/used/
[18:42] <Escherial> i have to wonder if i'm in a minority for liking to use a mouse while editing text, heh...
[18:42] <auronandace> Escherial: nano is very simple
[18:43] <Tm_T> using mouse != gui
[18:43] <Escherial> Tm_T: practically, using nano or vim like they've suggested won't by default support a mouse afaik
[18:44] <CFHowlett> Escherial   do what works for you.
[18:44] <Escherial> meh, well, kate is working ok for now; it just gets laggy, which is surprising considering that i'm running it locally
[18:45] <Escherial> i have to wonder if it's saving every character i enter, which would explain the latency somewhat
[18:45] <theadmin> Escherial: jedit, geany, cream, gedit, mousepad # List of some friendly GUI editors sorted by lightweightness. Try them and see which you like.
[18:45] <Escherial> theadmin: right, thanks :)
[18:46] <theadmin> Escherial: It's from least-lightweight to most-lightweight by the way
[18:46] <MonkeyDust> Escherial  and leafpad
[18:46] <Escherial> slightly off topic, but is mounting a folder via scp not a recommended way to edit files on a remote machine?
[18:46] <MonkeyDust> Escherial  NFS
[18:47] <MonkeyDust> or SSH
[18:47] <MonkeyDust> Escherial  scp is cp over ssh
[18:47] <Escherial> ah...right, apologies, it's actually using sftp as far as i can tell...
[18:48] <theadmin> Escherial: I don't see why sshfs/sftp would fail on you
[18:48] <Escherial> it's not failing, but it's not exactly resilient to flaky/closed connections. if i were using, say, winscp on windows, it'd at least attempt to reconnect if i were disconnected
[18:49] <zykotick9> Escherial: using sftp to actually edit seems strange to me
[18:49] <Escherial> zykotick9: as opposed to opening up an ssh session and using a non-graphical editor, you mean?
[18:50] <zykotick9> Escherial: or ssh with X forwarding for a GUI editor
[18:50] <Xeneth> Is there a shortcut in Ubuntu 10.4 to delete an item without sending it to the trash?
[18:51] <Xeneth> err 10.04
[18:51] <theadmin> Xeneth: Sure, shift-del
[18:51] <theadmin> Xeneth: Like usual :D
[18:51] <Xeneth> theadmin, Thanks.  I could have searched, but I'm lazy.
[18:52] <Escherial> zykotick9: but then wouldn't the latency be even worse, as even just interacting the editor would incur delay?
[18:52] <Martin79> Hi, does ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04 have OSS sound system installed? (even the old version)  I only want to uninstall pulseaudio and alsa and stay only with OSS because it has very low latency
[18:52] <slaine_> hello
[18:52] <michael_> ciao a tutti
[18:52] <CFHowlett> !it|michael
[18:53] <zykotick9> Escherial: if your method works, use it :)  If you use windows as a client, probably not too many options.
[18:54] <theadmin> Martin79: I don't think you can use OSS anymore. Gnome, which is what Ubuntu uses, depends on pulseaudio since version 3. Apart from that, I'm not even sure if OSS is in the repos.
[18:55] <auronandace> !find oss
[18:55] <theadmin> auronandace: "and 193 others"... :D
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> Martin79: seems to be in the repos
[18:55] <auronandace> !info alsa-oss
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> Martin79: http://paste.ubuntu.com/859560/
[18:56] <theadmin> auronandace: That's not it, it's "oss4-base" apparently
[18:56] <Martin79> theadmin actionparsnip thank you very much, looking that ...
[18:57] <Seryth> How can I set the default browser via terminal?
[18:57] <joallard> How do I build a driver with options?
[18:57] <Martin79> I only want to make  a full uninstall of pulseaudio and alsa (because of sound lag) so it's great oss is in the repos
[18:57] <KipIngram> Any word on how soon "enthusiasts" can get their hands on Ubuntu for Android?
[18:57] <Martin79> thank you !
[18:57] <CFHowlett> KipIngram   ask at #ubuntu-phone
[18:58] <KipIngram> Thank you!
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> Seryth: here is the gui way: http://ubuntuguide.net/change-default-browser-mail-musicmovie-player-in-ubuntu-11-10
[18:58] <zykotick9> Seryth: one version is "sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser" and "sudo update-alternatives --config gnome-www-browser" but there is also an XDG thing...
[18:58] <Seryth> ActionParsnip: I'm using openbox, I don't have all those settings things.
[18:58] <Seryth> (handy)
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> Seryth: ahhh, gotcha
[18:59] <zykotick9> Seryth: you might be interested in 'galternatives - graphical setup tool for the alternatives system'
[18:59] <Seryth> zykotick9: So say I want to change it to a certain browser that I have in a dir, rather than from repos, it would be "sudo update-alternatives --config /path/to/browser/"?

[19:00] <luvsawti> how i can install nokia pc suite ?
[19:00] <zykotick9> Seryth: if you're using an out of repo browser i doubt alternatives is going to be aware of it?!  sorry, don't know what you'd need to use - good luck.
[19:00] <luist> how do i create binary-amd64 with reprepro?? some machine is asking for …/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz inside my repo but i only have binary-i386
[19:00] <CFHowlett> !wine|luvsawti
[19:01] <CFHowlett> luvsawti   try in wine
[19:01] <Seryth> ActionParsnip: Same thing as what I said to zykotick9: I'm using an out of repo browser (nightly, to be precise)...so would that work?
[19:01] <mobhero> Hi, No such map passwd.byname. reason can't bind to server which server this domain error in nis ubuntu 10.04

[19:02] <skinnymg1> hello everyone
[19:02] <CFHowlett> skinnymg1   greetings
[19:02] <theadmin> auronandace: You can't install drivers in wine, and Nokia PC suite is a pack of those (as well as an overlay to use them)
[19:03] <ActionParsnip> Seryth: its just a bunch of symlinks, just link up how mine isand it'll be ok
[19:03] <auronandace> theadmin: ahh, didn't know that, thanks for the info (just thought it was some windows app)
[19:04] <CFHowlett> theadmin auronandace   as did I
[19:04] <Seryth> ActionParsnip: Gotcha, thanks.

[19:05] <SockPants> hi all,
[19:05] <darrenlooby> Do I need the user "debian-sys-maint" in my mysql?
[19:05] <SockPants> i have a server installation that i am trying to get gnome working on
[19:05] <luist> how do i create binary-amd64 with reprepro?? some machine is asking for …/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz inside my repo but i only have binary-i386
[19:05] <SockPants> long story short i need to change the default graphical shell to gdm from the command line. where can i do this?
[19:06] <luvsawti> i typed wine in usc but its showed many think !
[19:06] <CFHowlett> ???
[19:06] <Rewt`> SockPants: look into runlevels
[19:07] <theadmin> luvsawti: sudo apt-get install wine
[19:07] <skinnymg1> SockPants, sudo nano rc.conf and add gdm to the Daemons list
[19:07] <theadmin> skinnymg1: ...this ain't Arch
[19:07] <Pici> SockPants: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[19:07] <luvsawti> but it is 104 mb !
[19:07] <Pici> !runlevels | Rewt`
[19:07] <skinnymg1> it will still run from the daemons just like arch
[19:08] <theadmin> SockPants: When apt-get installs gdm, you'll be prompted to choose the default login manager. You can use dpkg-reconfigure gdm to select it at a later stage.
[19:08] <theadmin> skinnymg1: Ubuntu doesn't *have* an rc.conf though.
[19:08] <auronandace> !upstart | skinnymg1
[19:08] <theadmin> skinnymg1: Startup is configured differently... It's not the same
[19:08] <skinnymg1> ok my bad then

[19:16] <ActionParsnip> Stevan94NoT: did you extract the iSO then burn the data?
[19:16] <ZeloZelos> luvsawti, get grub customizer
[19:16] <Stevan94NoT> yes
[19:16] <Stevan94NoT> extracted using daemon tools
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> Stevan94NoT: you don't extract it!

[19:16] <CFHowlett> Stevan94NoT   whao, what?
[19:16] <ZeloZelos> luvsawti, you will need to add the ppa
[19:16] <carcharodon> channel
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> Stevan94NoT: you just open the file with nero and it will burn ok (burn as slowly as possible)
[19:17] <Pici> ch33z__: This channel is for support, please don't post random links here.
[19:17] <luvsawti> what is that ppa !
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> luvsawti: the grub bootloader is smart
[19:17] <Stevan94NoT> I mounted ISO file, and burned all things that was in Iso and burned on CD i did wrong huh?
[19:17] <ZeloZelos> luvsawti, see this page   https://launchpad.net/~danielrichter2007/+archive/grub-customizer
[19:17] <zykotick9> Stevan94NoT: that's not how you burn ISOs... you should reburn it properly
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> luvsawti: if you copy the image to /boot/grub/    it will be used when you run:   sudo update-grub
[19:18] <auronandace> !ppa | luvsawti
[19:18] <CFHowlett> Stevan94NoT   you need to burn an IMAGE file not a data file.

[19:18] <Stevan94NoT> ok, i will do that thank guys for your help
[19:18] <CFHowlett> Stevan94NoT   does your computer support usb boot?
[19:19] <Stevan94NoT> yes?
[19:19] <Dr_willis> !burn
[19:19] <CFHowlett> Stevan94NoT   consider creating a boot usb
[19:19] <Dr_willis> why do people always seem to want to use deamon tools. :)
[19:19] <Stevan94NoT> well im a newbie :D
[19:19] <carcharodon> help
[19:19] <P1rate> Dr_willis: why not? :P
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> Stevan94NoT: burning ISOs is not an Ubuntu specific thing
[19:19] <Dr_willis> at least you dident open it with winrar.
[19:19] <CFHowlett> Stevan94NoT   no worries - next month you'll be much smarter!
[19:19] <zykotick9> carcharodon: do you have an ubuntu support question?  if so, ask it.
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: did, but used daemontools
[19:20] <Dr_willis> I tend to use infrarecorder to burn isos to disk.
[19:20]  * Dr_willis recalls someone asking over and over once how to burn an rar to cd.. since the iso was opening in winrar for some insane reason. :)
[19:20] <P1rate> I think infra is the one that official ubuntu tut uses

[19:22] <Pici> kurtwp_: The 26th of april. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule for more info, also #ubuntu+1
[19:22] <vubuntor932> for list text file 'use ls *.txt'
[19:22] <kurtwp_> Great thanks for the info
[19:22] <luvsawti> i am worried about this third-party , is there any other way to change grub bg image ?
[19:23] <module000> luvsawti: you can edit it in your grub.cfg, all the syntax is included in the appropriate man pages
[19:23] <Dr_willis> luvsawti,  the grub2 docs detail how to give the grub menu an image.
[19:23] <vubuntor932> if i want to list *.txt and *.deb
[19:23] <vubuntor932> what to do?
[19:23] <ActionParsnip> luvsawti: yes, copy the image to /boot/grub
[19:23] <theadmin> vubuntor932: ls *.txt *.deb
[19:23] <theadmin> vubuntor932: :P
[19:23] <elsombrero> Please? anybody?
[19:24] <Dr_willis> vubuntor932,   the trick to rember is that its the shell expanding the *, not the ls command. echo *.txt  *.deb would also work.
[19:24] <elsombrero> i need some tunes and my flatmates are making fun of me :)
[19:24] <vubuntor932> theadmin: pls
[19:24] <dtcrshr> i have a pretty old notebook here, looking on xp information it has a sis 650 vga, will it work if i install ubuntu?
[19:24] <theadmin> vubuntor932: Seriously. "ls *.txt *.deb"
[19:24] <Dr_willis> elsombrero,  plenty of music streaming services out there.
[19:24] <vubuntor932> if use ls???
[19:24] <elsombrero> Dr_willis: all useless, if my audio device doesnt work
[19:25] <vubuntor932> theadmin: ok
[19:25] <vubuntor932> great
[19:25] <Dr_willis> elsombrero,   then why were you asking for tunes.. :)
[19:25] <dtcrshr> network is sis 900, 20gb hard drive
[19:25] <vubuntor932> thanks all
[19:25] <vubuntor932> :d
[19:25] <yugandhar> Hi
[19:25] <luvsawti> what type of image format and what is resolution required for this ?
[19:25] <elsombrero> ok, let me rephrase: can somebocy tell me why my bleeping ALSA isnt doing its job?
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> luvsawti: i've used jpg
[19:26] <Dr_willis> luvsawti,  i recall using .png or .jpg  i scaled them to be the same res as my grub menu was using.
[19:26] <boblu_> Hi, I'm having problems installing the flash debug player in chrome/firefox. I've tried following tips online but none of them seem to help me...
[19:26] <elsombrero> also, the ubuntu software broke it with an update, so i AM considering ubuntu to be responsible for this.
[19:26] <elsombrero> i didnt change anything but the X drivers in the meanwhile
[19:27] <elsombrero> [ati/amd proprietary ones]
[19:27] <Dr_willis> elsombrero,  using HDMI audio out? or normal rca/audio jacks?
[19:27] <elsombrero> normal  jacks
[19:27] <elsombrero> fun thing: i hear the ubuntu chime on X startup
[19:27] <pickel> Is there any way to get the file pam_gnome_keyring.so for ubuntu 11.10
[19:27] <luvsawti> my screen resolution is 1360x768 !
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> elsombrero: what is the output of: wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8850924/alsa-info.sh; chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh; ./alsa-info.sh
[19:28] <pickel> i am missing it somehow
[19:28] <Dr_willis> !find pam_gnome_keyring.so
[19:28] <elsombrero> ActionParsnip: one sec
[19:28] <Dr_willis> pickel,  there ya go ^^^
[19:29] <pickel> Dr_willis: ok but i cannnot connect to the internet with it since it is kicking me out when i log in.
[19:29] <pickel> due to the missing file
[19:29] <elsombrero> ActionParsnip:  http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=6847c97bc01b2a2d7e5f5217b41aa7e9fdf736c8
[19:29] <shaneo> hey guys im having issues with flash videos every video i play or atleasrt want to play has a big red circle with a line throught it. Just stated happening  a few days ago. I have adobe flash 11 installed so what could be the problem
[19:30] <ActionParsnip> sorry missed that :(, whats the link again please
[19:30] <pickel> ActionParsnip: lsombrero: ActionParsnip:  http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=6847c97bc01b2a2d7e5f5217b41aa7e9fdf736c8
[19:30] <cemycc> What is the best option to backup my ubuntu PC ( with all the installed application ) and to use that backup on my laptop to restore that packages and all the setings ?
[19:30] <Dr_willis> pickel,  no idea. I never use pam that i know of..  try logging in at the console
[19:30] <Dr_willis> !info  libpam-gnome-keyring
[19:30] <shaneo> cemycc: deja dup
[19:31] <elsombrero> ActionParsnip:  http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=6847c97bc01b2a2d7e5f5217b41aa7e9fdf736c8
[19:31] <pickel> Dr_willis: i can log in at console but i am not man enough to setup the WLAN
[19:31] <elsombrero> sorry just noticed your rejoin
[19:31] <cemycc> shameo: I was trying to use it but what folders I need to backup from /  ?
[19:31] <Dr_willis> pickel,  seen guides on it. havent had to do it that way in ages. was just a few commands i recall.
[19:31] <esing> hi
[19:32] <esing> which anti virus program would you recommend me to use in ubuntu for checking my USB hdd for windows trojans ?
[19:32] <shaneo> cemycc:/ folder will back up your whole pc
[19:32] <Trevor69420> cemycc u can just backup /
[19:32] <Trevor69420> errr what shaneo said
[19:32] <Trevor69420> unless u want it bootable that is
[19:32] <lokomis> cemycc provided the software you have on the two machines is identical (running same version of ubu, same packages installed) I'm pretty sure you can just backup the contents of your home directory and move them over
[19:32] <lokomis> somebody correct me if i'm wrong though
[19:32] <shaneo> cemycc: or backup /home any other folders you want to hold on to
[19:33] <elsombrero>  esing : rm -rf  any files you dont know ?
[19:33] <Trevor69420> or cemycc u can image the hard drive
[19:33] <luvsawti> how i can copy image to  /boot/grub !
[19:33] <elsombrero> most "viruses" are hidden as autoexec crap
[19:33] <cemycc> lokomis: I have allot of applications installed and I don't want to install them all again
[19:33] <shaneo> cemycc: idk how large your hdd is but i would hope you have an external drive big enough if your going to backup /
[19:33] <shaneo> cemycc: also backing up / requires root
[19:34] <ActionParsnip> luvsawti: sudo cp file /boot/grub
[19:34] <Trevor69420> cemycc it sounds like you are looking to image your drive right?
[19:34] <cemycc> shaneo: Is ok, but it will work if i backup / and restore on a fresh install on my laptop ?
[19:34] <cemycc> Trevor69420, yes. How can i make that ?
[19:34] <esing> elsombrero thx
[19:34] <yugandhar> Can anybody help to find any chat application in ubuntu 10.04 for LAN
[19:34] <esing> elsombrero so i will not even need an antivirus program
[19:34] <cemycc> Trevor69420, and to use that image on my laptop so my laptop will be like my PC :)
[19:34] <Trevor69420> cemycc you can use part image
 will you plz elabrote it !
[19:34] <Trevor69420> errr partimage
[19:34] <shaneo> cemycc: yes as long as you arnt trying to install x64 on a x32 backup
[19:35] <esing> elsombrero only if there are many files it might be alittle bit much to check all folders ^^
[19:35] <Trevor69420> cemycc, http://www.partimage.org/Main_Page
[19:35] <Dr_willis> cemycc,  i just make a list of the installed apps and reinstall them.  but i got good download speeds. :)
[19:35] <Dr_willis> !clone
[19:36] <shaneo> esing: Linux has a firewall built in and you have to give permissions on windows executables so no need for anti virus .exe's cant run if you dont let them
[19:36] <Trevor69420> cemycc, u can also try these steps too... http://www.hanckmann.net/?q=node/19
[19:36] <esing> shaneo i know that nice information too :P
[19:36] <cemycc> Dr_willis Thanks for that. Is more simple like that I just get the list and install it on laptop and I backup only the home folder and /etc/apt folder right ?
[19:37] <Trevor69420> cemycc also the one i have used in the past is clonezilla as well
[19:37] <esing> shaneo but my intention is to clean the usb drive so i can use it on windows systems =)
[19:37] <Trevor69420> that works really well
[19:37] <Dr_willis> cemycc,  i keep my /home/ on its own partion. So i dont need to worry about it.. and /etc/apt is just the config/repo list for your setup.
[19:37] <shaneo> esing: oic
[19:37] <cemycc> Trevor69420, the image is a good solution too but i don't know if is working on LVM ?
[19:38] <Dr_willis> I normally use a clean install as a time/way to 'clean out all the crud i played with that i never use' :)
[19:38] <yugandhar> Hi guys, Can anyone help in finding chat application like skype in ubuntu 10.04 for LAN?
[19:38] <Trevor69420> cemycc i dont know either
[19:38] <cemycc> Dr_willis, same but I want to clone my brand new laptop with my pc :)
[19:38] <Trevor69420> u should try it and see what happens
[19:38] <cemycc> Yep
[19:38] <Dr_willis> yugandhar,  theres 'talk' and  i think a few other apps in the repos that are similer. or you could setup a jabber, or irc server.
[19:38] <Trevor69420> cemycc i think u can use gparted to also copy partitions to another drive
[19:38] <shaneo> yugandhar: skpy like or skype
[19:39] <shaneo> *skype
[19:39] <shaneo> skype is available in Ubuntu
[19:39] <Dr_willis> cemycc,  you can use 'dd' to make an exact image  to the other hd.  then use gparted to resize it to fill up the new hd.
[19:39] <Trevor69420> that should copy the data too but it'll be slow
[19:39] <Trevor69420> yea dd works as well
[19:39] <Dr_willis> ive used a flash drive as a 'clone' source to make several copys of a setup befor. :)
[19:39] <Trevor69420> lots of solutions to be honest
[19:40] <yugandhar> shaneo : not a skype, we need chat application for LAN
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> yugandhar: do you want voice chat?
[19:40] <Trevor69420> yugandhar, try openfire
[19:40] <Dr_willis> yugandhar,  'chat' meaning Text chat? voicd chat?
[19:40] <yugandhar> like skype only
[19:40] <Trevor69420> yugandhar, i've used that, it's basically jabber
[19:40] <yugandhar> text chat DR_willis
[19:40] <theadmin> yugandhar: Set up a Jabber server on one of the computers and let others connect to it
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> yugandhar: could setup a  jabber or irc server
[19:40] <Trevor69420> yugandhar, http://www.igniterealtime.org/projects/openfire/index.jsp
[19:40] <Dr_willis> I recall seeing some very basic ruby/chat/talk apps out also. :) in like 20 lines of ruby code.
[19:41] <Trevor69420> yugandhar, openfire uses XMPP (Jabber) and it also has a video plugin but i havent used that
[19:41] <yugandhar> irc is like a group chat
[19:41] <Trevor69420> only the IM
[19:41] <Dr_willis> I think theres some front ends to 'talk' also.
[19:41] <Dr_willis> !info talk
[19:41] <yugandhar> we need only the IM
[19:41] <Trevor69420> yugandhar, and you can use many clients that can IM like iChat
[19:41] <Trevor69420> Pandoin
[19:41] <Trevor69420> yugandhar, yes try openfire thats what it's for
[19:42] <ssta> yugandhar: teamspeak might be another option?
[19:42] <Trevor69420> ichat can connect to it and so can most other chat applications
[19:42] <pickel> yugandhar: pidgin works with most chat protocols
[19:42] <Trevor69420> i use pandoin personally
[19:42] <Trevor69420> but pidgin works
[19:42] <Trevor69420> if you need help setting up openfire let me know yugandhar i've done number of them on ubuntu server
[19:42] <Dr_willis> I recall kde having some 'find local users'  thing. never did figure out how it was supposed to work/chat. :) or what it used.
[19:43] <Trevor69420> but also it helps if i know how many clients you have
[19:43] <ssta> I don't see openfire in the repos.  Is the package named something else?
[19:43] <blk> How do I install ubuntu server with software RAID 10 -- does the installer not support this feature?
[19:43] <Trevor69420> i dont know it's in the repos ssta
[19:44] <Trevor69420> it has a .deb package for it
[19:44] <Trevor69420> wget http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloadServlet?filename=openfire/openfire_3.6.4_all.deb
[19:44] <Trevor69420> yugandhar, http://library.linode.com/communications/xmpp/openfire/ubuntu-10.04-lucid
[19:44] <Trevor69420> those should work for the .latest ubuntu release too
[19:44] <zykotick9> openfire is just a jabber/xmpp server - why not use one from the repo?
[19:45] <luvsawti> is there any way to install asus driver !
[19:45] <Trevor69420> i'm sure there are a number of options zykotick9 i only have experience using openfire personally
[19:45] <yugandhar> Trevor:  can you please ping me the links for openfire and teamspeak and pidgin to install
[19:45] <Trevor69420> and i love it
[19:45] <emboss> Hi I'm trying to setup an apple bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I went through the pairing process and it seemed to complete ok. But I can't input from the mouse or keyboard? I'm using a updated version of 10.04 LTS
[19:46] <zykotick9> Trevor69420: and after yugandhar installs openfire, they're not going to be able to get help here (unless you're here)
[19:46] <Trevor69420> guess it
[19:46] <Trevor69420> errr
[19:47] <Trevor69420> guess its a good reason to not ban me
[19:47] <Trevor69420> ;-)
[19:47] <Dr_willis> openfire seems rather... impressive. :) totally differnt 'target' then teamspeak.
[19:47] <Trevor69420> openfire kicks butt in every way shape or form
[19:47] <Dr_willis> may be a bit overkill for a 3 person network. :)
[19:48] <Trevor69420> oh 3 people
[19:48] <Trevor69420> i dunno i have almost 10,000 users on mine
[19:48] <ssta> it looks interesting for my job though...I must have a look into it
[19:48] <Trevor69420> but yea bit overkill
[19:48] <Trevor69420> lol
[19:48] <Trevor69420> i use it for an entire company
[19:49] <ssta> easy to wind win32 clients for it?
[19:49] <ssta> find
[19:49] <Dr_willis> http://www.igniterealtime.org/projects/openfire/documentation.jsp    says supports windows.. time to do some reading. :)
[19:49] <luvsawti>        plz tell me is there any way to install asus motherboard chipset driver !
[19:49] <ssta> the server supports windows.  I'm wondering about clients.  I guess it's offtopic for here though
[19:50] <_Marcus> luvsawti: Did you check the available drivers?
[19:50] <Dr_willis> id guess any jabber client would work.
[19:50] <esing> i wanted to run teamviewer, but ubuntu tells me : "teamviewer must not be executed as root"
[19:50] <joallard> How do I build a driver with options?
[19:50] <zykotick9> luvsawti: "motherboard chipset" drivers are typically included in the kernel?
[19:50] <esing> what do I wrong? i didnt write "sudo teamviewer" .. i just wrote "teamviewer" in terminal
[19:50] <_Marcus> esing: Don't run it with sudo, or log out of root and into a different user.
[19:50] <JoseeAntonioR> Hello! I want to know how can I remap some keys.
[19:51] <luvsawti> no
[19:51] <_Marcus> !shortcut
[19:51] <zykotick9> esing: does you terminal start with a # or a $
[19:51] <Belias> hello
[19:51] <_Marcus> JoseeAntonioR: Read above
[19:51] <Belias> this is a very dangerous article
[19:51] <Belias> https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2012/02/how-remove-your-google-search-history-googles-new-privacy-policy-takes-effect
[19:51] <CFHowlett> Belias   greetings
[19:51] <ardian> Hi I am having a problems httpd.conf is empty ?
[19:51] <JoseeAntonioR> _Marcus: Thanks.
[19:51] <Belias> would google publish what users are searching for?
[19:52] <esing> zykotick9 #
[19:52] <luvsawti> what it is included . Then how to cheackk the available driver ?
[19:52] <CFHowlett> !ot|belias
[19:52] <Belias> ok
[19:52] <esing> _marcus well how do i log out ? i think if i boot ubuntu iam always admin :o
[19:53] <_Marcus> esing: When you boot ubuntu, don't log into admin.
[19:53] <esing> or maybe iam admin because i used 2 minutes ago "sudo" to install something
[19:53] <_Marcus> esing: Log into a user.
[19:53] <urupica> JoseeAntonioR: xmodmap
[19:53] <esing> _marcus for that i have to create user first ?
[19:53] <_Marcus> esing: If you don't have one yet, yes
[19:53] <zykotick9> esing: # means root, $ a regular user
[19:53] <JoseeAntonioR> urupica Perfect, thank you.
[19:53] <joel135> how long would it take to install 2.5 GiB of debian packages on your system?
[19:53] <ssta> joel135: depends on your system...
[19:54] <zykotick9> joel135: literally Debian packages?  if so - DON'T
[19:54] <ActionParsnip> joel135: depends on CPU, RAM,drive speed and so forth
[19:54] <Dr_willis> and what the packages are doing...
[19:55] <Trevor69420> lol
[19:55] <esing> if i write : useradd jasmin ... it says it already exists
[19:55] <esing> does it mean "jasmin" is already admin ?
[19:55] <joel135> try to make it simple. on YOUR system, when installing something that YOU would install, what's the average speed? is it 1 MiB/s, or is it 20?
[19:55] <esing> or does it mean i have to login to jasmin ?
[19:56] <ssta> esing: what is the output of: id
[19:56] <elsombrero> ActionParsnip: was AFK. did i miss anything from yoy?
[19:56] <zykotick9> esing: FYI adduser is a lot easerier to use then useradd
[19:56] <elsombrero> you even
[19:56] <Trevor69420> esing.. it means the user exists not that it's admin
[19:56] <warfaren> useradd is supposed to create a new user account. and for get it, use adduser instead, much better. then you can log into jasmin by typing su jasmin
[19:56] <CFHowlett> joel135   pretty sure bandwith speeds differ per user, time of day, network, etc.
[19:56] <Trevor69420> if the user jamin exists then u need tpo add her to the correct group
[19:57] <Trevor69420> jasmin*
[19:58] <shaneo> so is anyone else having issues watching youtube videos
[19:58] <shaneo> every video i try to play doesnt work
[19:58] <warfaren> shaneo: perhaps you need to install flash player?
[19:58] <CFHowlett> shaneo   youtube only?  try vimeo
[19:59] <shaneo> yes i have flash installed this just started yesterday and no not just youtube everywhere
[19:59] <warfaren> youtube works just fine for me, so there's nothing wrong with youtube
[19:59] <shaneo> *its everywhere
[19:59] <joel135> CFHowlett: but let's say the packages are already downloaded
[19:59] <warfaren> shaneo: well what's the error you're getting?
[19:59] <CFHowlett> shaneo   can you play downloaded videos?
[20:00] <sleepgone> Having a  problem connecting to network. Followed directions in "network troubleshooter" to no avail. any suggestions?
[20:00] <shaneo> big red circle with a line throught it than some wierd text
[20:00] <CFHowlett> joel135   as someone else stated, your ram, hdd, chip all those are factors.  IOW no one can say with any meaningful certainty
[20:00] <warfaren> shaneo: can you take a screenshot? i'd like to see
[20:00] <CFHowlett> shaneo   post a pic...
[20:00] <shaneo> yes any movies i have on my pc work fine
[20:00] <warfaren> hehehe
[20:00] <shaneo> warfaren: yes one sec
[20:00] <warfaren> cool
[20:01] <sukima> How do you install Ubuntu 11.10 onto a virtual disk that resides on a FAT32 system the same way Wubi does?
[20:01] <ssta> joel135: debootstrapping a base sid chroot here takes about 15 minutes (extrapolate from that what you will)
[20:01] <Trevor69420> sukima huh?
[20:01] <esing> trevor69420 it worked :)
[20:01] <Trevor69420> are u using vbox
[20:01] <esing> thx
[20:01] <yugandhar> Hey guys, i have an error with my NIS (Error is  "YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bind") . Can you pls help on this. we are getting struggle since two days on this. Please help me
[20:01] <Trevor69420> what worked esing?
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> sukima: fat32 has a maximum file size of 4Gb, so you are severly restricted there
[20:02] <sukima> Sorry, rephrase. How do I install ubuntu onto an exernal HDD 500GB formated as FAT32 using the virtual disk file the same way wubi installs into a folder under windows internal drive?
[20:02] <ribot> hi
[20:03] <CFHowlett> ribot   greetings
[20:03] <joel135> ssta: thank you! it helped!
[20:03] <sukima> ActionParsnip: But linux and windows sees that partition as FAT32 but sees the whole 499GB on it
[20:03] <ribot> when i send an email through php, it uses a host that i have not written in phpp, so it must be some setting in ubuntu, now i wonder where that might be
[20:03] <ActionParsnip> sukima: you set the location to store the file. FAT32 has a maximum file size of 4Gb, so you will only be ableto have a 4Gb wubi file
[20:03] <ssta> joel135: of course that includes download time
[20:03] <shaneo> warfren: https://imgur.com/l2jxx
[20:03] <Trevor69420> sukima he means that you can only have files up to 4GB in size
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> sukima: yes, you can use all 500Gb, just the maximum individual file sizeif 4Gb
[20:04] <sukima> ActionParsnip: Oh!
[20:04] <vubuntor932> hi
[20:04] <vubuntor932> for f in $(ls *.flv *.mpg *.mp4 *.avi)
[20:04] <JoseeAntonioR> I have a problem over here. I have set a key shortcut for my multimedia keys. I have set, for example, Monitor Brightness Down to act as banshee --play, but it acts as the key it is, + the shortcut. How can I avoid, for example, this key, to lower the brightness, and just to play/pause the music?
[20:04] <Trevor69420> hence why NTFS is suggested sukima
[20:04] <vubuntor932> it's correc?
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> sukima: yes, Fat32 is junk
[20:04] <Trevor69420> but out of curiosity why install with WUBI?
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> sukima: can't even hold a DVD ISO
[20:04] <elsombrero> ActionParsnip: ?
[20:04] <warfaren> shaneo: well whatever is going on there i don't think it is using flash player...
[20:04] <pythonirc101> I'm trying to boot into single user mode using grub, but dont have the "kernel" line anymore when i press "e".
[20:04] <Trevor69420> if it's on a second hd that is
[20:04] <ssta> vubuntor932: as long as none of the filenames contain spaces it should be
[20:05] <pythonirc101> Any ideas how to  boot into single user mode on this ubuntu box
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> elsombrero: try asking a question rather than simply sending '?'which means nothing
[20:05] <sukima> Ok then how about this: I have partitioned the external HDD with 450GB asthe FAT32, then 45GB for ext4 and 5GB for swap. But grub keeps complaining after the install that it is an unknown filesystem
[20:05] <shaneo> i even uninstalled flash and re-ionstalled and still get the same thing
[20:05] <warfaren> shaneo: does not look anything like that, more like you're using the totem player (which comes with ubuntu) to play flash video content? :S
[20:05] <CFHowlett> shaneo   could your chrome settings be set to block this content
[20:05] <elsombrero> ActionParsnip: i had asked if you had replied and if i had missed it
[20:05] <vubuntor932> i want get file name 'file by file'
[20:05] <Austneal> hello people
[20:05] <elsombrero> ActionParsnip: regading the alsa issue
[20:05] <CFHowlett> Austneal   greetings
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> elsombrero: I had nothing to add, so didn't reply. Sorry
[20:06] <JoseeAntonioR> Austneal Hello!
[20:06] <Austneal> I've got a bit of a linux problem
[20:06] <elsombrero> snap.
[20:06] <Trevor69420> sukima are you trying to install to the correct partition?
[20:06] <Trevor69420> Austneal, just ask
[20:06] <Austneal> and being a ubuntu noob.... its going horribly
[20:06] <shaneo> warfaren CFHowlett: i dont even have totem installed i dont think and ill check my google chrome setting but it also happens in firefox
[20:06] <elsombrero> ok. so, i need some info to debug this. what is the default sound daemon for ubuntu?
[20:06] <elsombrero> ESD ?
[20:06] <elsombrero> or jackd ?
[20:06] <Austneal> Trying to play eve online
[20:06] <Austneal> while behind a firewall
[20:06] <Austneal> on Ubuntu >.>
[20:06] <warfaren> shaneo: think u can try with another browser? perhaps firefox... or even chromium (which comes with flash player preinstalled)
[20:06] <Trevor69420> ok Austneal and wats the issue
[20:07] <JoseeAntonioR> sukima: Have you checked that GRUB installed in the whole HDD, and not in the partition?
[20:07] <Austneal> idk what the heck im doing lol
[20:07] <Trevor69420> well that means nothing...
[20:07] <Trevor69420> have u installed it Austneal ?
[20:07] <Trevor69420> where is the problem?
[20:07] <Trevor69420> lol
[20:07] <Austneal> i assume I need some sort of way to punch through the firewall
[20:07] <Trevor69420> no u need to configure your firewall
[20:07] <Austneal> tunnel through SSL or whatnot
[20:07] <Trevor69420> is your firewall a router?
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> Austneal: well you only made a statement. You never metioned a problem
[20:07] <Austneal> firewall
[20:07] <Austneal> a school firewall
[20:08] <JoseeAntonioR> !enter | Austneal
[20:08] <shaneo> warfaren: Firefox does the same thing ill try chromium though and see what happens
[20:08] <warfaren> Austneal: you could use an ssh tunnel if you have access to an SSH server outside the school
[20:08] <Trevor69420> austneal well then u're gonna have issues unless u can modify the firewall
[20:08] <elsombrero> Austneal: shouldny you be studying?
[20:08] <ssta> Austneal: ask your admin to open it for you then
[20:08] <warfaren> shaneo: do that :)
[20:08] <Austneal> They wont open it
[20:08] <Trevor69420> well then we cant help Austneal
[20:08] <Trevor69420> haha
[20:08] <ssta> Austneal: I doubt you'll find anyone here willing to help you circumvent a school firewqall
[20:08] <Austneal> I can do this on windows....
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> Austneal: you may need a proxy
[20:08] <Austneal> http://privatetunnel.com/
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> Austneal: if there is a proxy, it will block any OS
[20:09] <Austneal> ^^ thats what i use to get around it on windows
[20:09] <Trevor69420> ah es a proxy
[20:09] <pythonirc101> there is no kernel line in my ubuntu boot -- any hints on how to boot into single user mode?
[20:09] <warfaren> Austneal: do you have access to an SSH server?
[20:09] <ActionParsnip> Austneal: then use a proxy in ubuntu...
[20:09] <Austneal> I dont believe so
[20:09] <ActionParsnip> !text | pythonirc101
[20:09] <Austneal> I have a windows machine outside the network right now, but idk if that will work
[20:10] <Trevor69420> does your windows machine run ssh?
[20:10] <warfaren> yeah that wont be of much use, you'd want a *nix server
[20:10] <Trevor69420> openssh that is...
[20:10] <ssta> are we really going to help this guy break his school rules?!
[20:10] <ssta> I should probably be quiet
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> Austneal: then its outside the lan, so not using the firewall
[20:10] <Trevor69420> lol
[20:10] <shaneo> warfaren: same thing in chromium
[20:10] <Austneal> Its not breaking the rules, the admin has said that if i can get it to work over a different port / protocol, im ok
[20:10] <Trevor69420> ActionParsnip, for ssh warfaren was suggesting
[20:11] <_Marcus> ssta: I would help him.
[20:11] <Trevor69420> austneal what ports does eve online require?
[20:11] <Austneal> Not entirely sure.... one momenty
[20:11] <warfaren> shaneo: that's really strange.. exactly how are you installing the flash player?
[20:12] <Austneal> Looks like port 26000
[20:12] <shaneo> warfaren: same thing in chromium
[20:12] <shaneo> lol sorry
[20:12] <shaneo> warfaren: ubuntu software center
[20:12] <warfaren> alright, the adobe flash plugin?
[20:12] <shaneo> ypu
[20:12] <shaneo> *yup
[20:12] <warfaren> right. let me think
[20:13] <vubuntor932> ssta: if it contain space??
[20:13] <Austneal> the only ports open are 80, and whatever SSL works on
[20:13] <warfaren> shaneo: can you play other flash content? such as flash games, speedtest.net etc?
[20:13] <Trevor69420> Austneal, you need to use a proxy
[20:13] <Trevor69420> Austneal, ssl is 443
[20:13] <vubuntor932> ssta: for f in $(ls *.flv *.mpg *.mp4 *.avi)
[20:13] <Austneal> Ok awesome.... How do i go about this?
[20:13] <shaneo> warfaren: no speedtest.net does the same thing
[20:13] <Austneal> <== networking noob
[20:13] <Trevor69420> well first you need a proxy server Austneal
[20:14] <warfaren> shaneo: speedtest shows you that totem player icon aswell?
[20:14] <Trevor69420> which i assume u dont have Austneal
[20:14] <shaneo> yup
[20:14] <Austneal> I have a proxy program on my desktop at home
[20:14] <Trevor69420> proxy program is different
[20:14] <Trevor69420> u need a server that will allow you to proxy on port 26000
[20:14] <warfaren> shaneo: that's really really strange, somewhere you must've accidently configured totem to be your default flash player
[20:14] <Austneal> This is why I prefer windows....
[20:15] <shaneo> hmmm
[20:15] <Trevor69420> windows and linux doesnt matter
[20:15] <warfaren> shaneo: are you sure you dont have totem player still installed? try typing totem in the terminal and press enter
[20:15] <Trevor69420> networking rules apply Austneal
[20:15] <Austneal> it does
[20:15] <Trevor69420> how so
[20:15] <Trevor69420> ?
[20:15] <Algern0n> i'm getting a message at the boot stating that it's waiting for my Network Configuration
[20:15] <shaneo> windows sucks and this isnt the place for tgat
[20:15] <Austneal> but this VPN client works on windows =P
[20:15] <fairuz_>  Hi, right now my /opt is mounted on /dev/sda1 and it's full. I have a lot of space on /dev/sda2. Can I change /opt to be mounted on /dev/sda2? Thanks
[20:15] <Algern0n> then i get another one that says Waiting 60 seconds more
[20:15] <Trevor69420> austneal what vpn client?
[20:15] <Algern0n> anyone have a fix on that?
[20:15] <mynameisdeleted> hi
[20:15] <Austneal> http://privatetunnel.com/ <== that one
[20:15] <shaneo> warfaren:hmm yeah its installed ima purge it and see what happens
[20:16] <Austneal> client / service, rather
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> Austneal: use a different proxy, there are plenty of public and free proxies
[20:16] <CFHowlett> mynameisdeleted   change your nick plz
[20:16] <mynameisdeleted> you dont like it?
[20:16] <warfaren> shaneo: do that, it might solve it but really, you shouldn't need to remove totem from your system just to get flash content working.
[20:16] <shaneo> yeah no kidding
[20:16] <shaneo> idk how this happened
[20:16] <Trevor69420> austneal well they clearly say they dont support linux
[20:16] <CFHowlett> mynameisdeleted  THIS is the last time I'll be typing your nick as it is at present...
[20:16] <warfaren> shaneo: there should be an option somewhere for picking your preferred flash player, i don't know where that is though
[20:17] <LjL> CFHowlett: know about Tab?
[20:17] <CFHowlett> LjL   sorry, IDK Tab
[20:17] <Austneal> I know this.... which is why I'm here. Trying to find an alternative for Linux
[20:17] <Trevor69420> only windows and mac
[20:17] <LjL> !tab | CFHowlett
[20:17] <Austneal> But, they say the profile file will work with any openVPN client
[20:17] <CFHowlett> LjL   didn't work with his name for some reason...
[20:17] <LoganShaw> thanks ubottu!
[20:18] <nameless12798> better?
[20:18] <LjL> nameless12798: not that it was bad before, either
[20:18] <CFHowlett> nameless12798   yes, ty.  so what's the ubuntu issue?
[20:18] <shaneo> warfaren: well it isnt showing totem but youtube is giving me an html5 error
[20:18] <nameless12798> any wayt o gtet gtk1 programs to compile like fsv?
[20:18] <fairuz_> anyone? :)
[20:18] <Trevor69420> austneal i dunno then... you can host a vpn at home if you wanted
[20:18] <marius1> shaneo: install adobe flash player
[20:19] <Trevor69420> i've never used any of the vpn tunnel services
[20:19] <warfaren> shaneo: hmm.. check http://www.youtube.com/html5 and check if you're using html5
[20:19] <Austneal> So are there any good openVPN clients that I could import this .ovpn file into?
[20:19] <Trevor69420> austneal yes openvpn is available for linux
[20:19] <warfaren> shaneo: so did you do apt-get remove --purge totem, or what?
[20:19] <Trevor69420> but u need to use their client
[20:19] <shaneo> marius1: yes flash is installed see the whole conversation please
[20:19] <shaneo> yes
[20:19] <Trevor69420> which is openvpn but has all the keys as part of the install... they dont make it for linux
[20:20] <Trevor69420> they dont allow linux, iOS, or android devices
[20:20] <Driedman_> Does anyone in here use backtrack?
[20:20] <CFHowlett>   shaneo what version of ubuntu?
[20:20] <marius1> shaneo: sorry didnt see it, well i had the same problem until i installed again flashplayer
[20:20] <tsunami_> my ubuntu is collapsing I dont know why as I did not messed around, first it was xfwm4 that started going crazy, I did xfwm4 --replace and it was ok. BUT after that I cant access other partitions on my hard disk and my keyboard is completely dis-configured... It is just colapsing.         Anybody has a suggestion or should I just reinstall ubuntu again?
[20:20] <zykotick9> !backtrack | Driedman_
[20:20] <CFHowlett> !backtrack|Driedman_
[20:20] <warfaren> shaneo: alright if this doesn't work out for you now, try sudo apt-get remove --purge adobe-flashplugin && sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin
[20:20] <Trevor69420> openvpn clients are available for all OSes Austneal but they have to create the client themselves to get it to work
[20:20] <shaneo> CFHowlett, 11.10
[20:20] <warfaren> that oughta reset things
[20:20] <Trevor69420> Austneal, you could set up openvpn server at home and then make your own vpn client for linux
[20:20] <Austneal> Well, i have this "profile" file with keys ans such in it
[20:20] <CFHowlett> shaneo   see this maybe ... http://beginlinux.com/desktop_training/ubuntu/html5-on-ubuntu-1004
[20:21] <Trevor69420> Austneal, wont work
[20:21] <Driedman_> thank you zykotick9
[20:21] <Trevor69420> u need them to create the openvpn install for you
[20:21] <Trevor69420> those are encrypted keys
[20:21] <Austneal> but.... they say it will =/
[20:21] <Trevor69420> and the client will have it's own unique key
[20:21] <Trevor69420> well then try it, but i doubt it
[20:21] <shaneo> thanks CFHowlett and warfaren ok will do
[20:21] <Trevor69420> http://vpnreviews.net/tag/private-tunnel/
[20:22] <shaneo> Trevor69420, please use pastebin
[20:22] <nameless12798> I like that I have gtk3, and gtk2 compatibility, but ideally I'd like to be able to run any software
[20:22] <Treat1> Still having problems with my printer
[20:22] <Trevor69420> says they do not support linux, iOS, or android so no need to
[20:22] <Austneal> Do you think it would be possible to run the client through Wine or something?
[20:22] <Trevor69420> nope probably not austneal
[20:22] <Trevor69420> set up openvpn server at home
[20:22] <Austneal> ok, so dual boot windows it is
[20:22] <Trevor69420> then you can vpn into your home machine from your linux box
[20:23] <shaneo> CFHowlett, warfaren, ok all is good thank you so much
[20:23] <CFHowlett> shaneo   good luck.
[20:23] <warfaren> shaneo: awesome! :)
[20:23] <nameless12798> maybe usermode linux with some old distro installed is the best way to run gtk1 apps
[20:23] <nameless12798> and software no longer comaptible with ubuntu linux
[20:23] <Treat1> New drivers installed, check, pinged printers ip, check.....still not showing up as a network printer
[20:23] <shaneo> hope totem isnt needed for anything important
[20:23] <shaneo> :p
[20:23] <nameless12798> or chroot or something
[20:24] <CFHowlett> shaneo   videos only
[20:24] <warfaren> shaneo: probably not, in fact i think you can probably safely install it again without getting things messed up again
[20:24] <sukima> JoseeAntonioR: Stepped away, Yes I used the Ubuntu installer to install the root to /dev/sdc2 and told the boot loader to install to /dev/sdc. Once done I reboot and I get the grub rescue prompt with the error: unknown filesystem
[20:24] <Trevor69420> Austneal, u are correct in that it COULD work if you had the linux client but seeing that they dont make the vpn client package for your machine it wont work... thats why you can just set up your own vpn at home and tunnel from school to home
[20:24] <warfaren> shaneo: worst case scenario you know how to fix it again ;) just check your bash history or something :D
[20:24] <CFHowlett> warfaren   agreed
[20:24] <warfaren> :)
[20:24] <Trevor69420> shaneo, how is pasting a link to something relevant a call for pastebin
[20:24] <Trevor69420> ?
[20:24] <JoseeAntonioR> sukima Is your fat32 filesystem empty?
[20:24] <sukima> JoseeAntonioR: no

[20:28] <Companion> alright thats annoying me
[20:28] <Companion> hello pangolin
[20:28] <Trevor69420> ok kick him out now
[20:28] <Companion> ehhh tsunami_ whats the problem?
[20:28] <Trevor69420> he was already told to use pastebin
[20:28] <CarlFK> lol
[20:29] <LjL> Trevor69420: he was already kicked out before you asked.
[20:29] <tsunami_> hey companion! thanks, I will repeat:
[20:29] <tsunami_> my ubuntu is collapsing I dont know why as I did not messed around, first it was xfwm4 that started going crazy, I did xfwm4 --replace and it was ok. BUT after that I cant access other partitions on my hard disk and my keyboard is completely dis-configured... It is just colapsing.         Anybody has a suggestion or should I just reinstall ubuntu again?
[20:29] <Companion> Driedman_, this is #ubuntu not #back-track
[20:29] <ubuntu> can someone tell me how to make usb-install-disc-ubuntu on ubuntu cd live?
[20:29] <bLiNdRaGe> so i upgraded to ubuntu 11.10 and this started happening: http://pastebin.com/1xacKXDb
[20:29] <onezerotwo> i think ubuntu you can use pendrive linux tool
[20:29] <CFHowlett> ubuntu should be "startup disc creator" ...
[20:30] <onezerotwo> just google it
[20:30] <pangolin> !usb | ubuntu
[20:30] <onezerotwo> oh nevermind thats wrong
[20:30] <Companion> tsunami_, short version: You messed with a command you should not touch and now your partitions/permissions are fucked?
[20:30] <pangolin> Companion: no swearing please
[20:30] <P1rate> !Linuxlive
[20:30] <Companion> srry pangolin
[20:30] <ubuntu> thank you very much
[20:30] <Trevor69420> oh lol
[20:30] <P1rate> linux live creator is nice
[20:30] <P1rate> :)
[20:31] <tsunami_> nope, it just happened today when I turned on the pc, yesterday was ok
[20:31] <Trevor69420> man he just got on me to use pastebin cuz somehow when i wrote:  <Trevor69420> u need them to create the openvpn install for you
[20:31] <tsunami_> Companion: nope, it just happened today when I turned on the pc, yesterday was ok
[20:31] <Companion> tsunami_, always highlight some one who you're talking to :)
[20:31] <Trevor69420> that somehow qualifies me to use pastebin for a single line
[20:32] <Companion> tsunami_, paritions are able to fix and your keyboard also :)
[20:32] <tsunami_> Companion, just did
[20:32] <alkisg> I want to convert from hostname to ip from a script. `host mypc.local` and `dig mypc.local` don't lookup mdns hostnames, while `ping mypc.local` does. Is there any better tool to use for DNS resolution from the command line, or I would have to resort to sed'ing the ping output?
[20:32] <Companion> tsunami_, you fixed your partitions and keyboard layout?
[20:32] <tsunami_> Companion, thanks, what can I do?
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> alkisg: nslookup maybe
[20:33] <asteve> what makes dchlient3 run?
[20:33] <Companion> tsunami_, check pm
[20:33] <alkisg> ActionParsnip: I think that doesn't support mdns either :(

[20:35] <Xeneth> In Xchat, is it possible (easy) to add time stamps to chat?
[20:36] <CFHowlett> Xeneth   it's in the settings - somewhere
[20:36] <zykotick9> Xeneth: i certainly remember that as being an option - but don't use xchat anymore
[20:36] <heinz> Xeneth: Settings, Preferences, [x] Enable time stamps
[20:36] <jonathon> Anyone here know if there is a program like Cheat Engine on Ubuntu?
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> Xeneth: https://toxin.jottit.com/xchat_strftime
[20:37] <zykotick9> jonathon: and what does "Cheat Engine" do?
[20:37] <lucariello79> !list
[20:37] <P1rate> zykotick9: it cheats :P
[20:38] <jonathon> zykotick9, Basically a hex editor for active processes
[20:38] <zykotick9> P1rate: is it also an engine? :p
[20:38] <Xeneth> ActionParsnip, Thanx.  I was looking right at it without seeing it.  :P
[20:38] <step_offset> Hi all
[20:39] <CFHowlett> step_offset   greetings
[20:39] <P1rate> Salut!
[20:39] <step_offset> I have a problem with Grub2 on an Ubuntu 11.10 x86_64 install
[20:39] <MrWizard> Hello World
[20:39] <JoseeAntonioR> !ask | step_offset
[20:39] <CFHowlett> MrWizard   hello back
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> Xeneth: i don't even use xchat, i just found it online
[20:39] <MrWizard> CFHowlett: thankyou much, greetings
[20:40] <P1rate> ActionParsnip: Webchat?
[20:40] <jonathon> zykotick9 Cheat Engine, commonly abbreviated as CE, is an open source memory scanner/hex editor/debugger
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> P1rate: pidgin
[20:40] <CFHowlett> MrWizard   what's the ubuntu problem?
[20:40] <zykotick9> jonathon: ya i get the picture...
[20:40] <step_offset> for some strange reason, it has been automatically incrementing the value of part_msdos in Grub2
[20:41] <MrWizard> CFHowlett: same as before...pulseaudio sound issues, just figured i'd log in while i work at, got a couple a leads...
[20:41] <ssta> jonathon: you can attach gdb to a running process.  It's not very user friendly though
[20:41] <step_offset> each time I reboot, I get a rescue prompt, which I fix and then do a update-grub or grub-install, but the problem seems to persist, all help is appreciated
[20:41] <CFHowlett> MrWizard   keep on computing then.
[20:42] <Guest61241>  /part
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> step_offset: try reinstalling grub-pc
[20:43] <jonathon> ssta, That doesn't quite seem to be what I need...I don't think
[20:44] <step_offset> ActionParsnip: thanks, done. And then?
[20:44] <Driedman_> I ask for help in #backtrack-linux and that channel is full of trolls
[20:44] <step_offset> ActionParsnip: oh yes, it may be worth noting, the one change I have to my config, is an automatic change to my grub settings triggered by my dropping a JPEG into the /boot/ dir
[20:45] <sukima> step_offset: how do you fix a rescue prompt I'm in the same boat
[20:45] <CFHowlett> Driedman_   and we don't support bt here....
[20:45] <Driedman_> I KNOW
[20:45] <Driedman_> I feel as if no one even reads what I type at times
[20:45] <step_offset> sukima: type 'set' and then set those values appropriately
[20:45] <P1rate> Driedman_: what is your problem?
[20:46] <zykotick9> Driedman_: complaining about BT support is OT in this channel - what support here?  install ubuntu.
[20:46] <CFHowlett> Driedman_   see the backtrrack forums  http://www.backtrack-linux.org/forums/forum.php

[20:48] <separate> Having an issue with Banshee, wanted to check to see if there's a known fix before I attempt a bug report: Occasionally, on a song change, banshee will just quit.

[20:50] <yugandhar> Hi
[20:50] <danielboston26> which version of ubuntu will run on a powermac g3?
[20:51] <yugandhar> is openfire for LAN ?
[20:51] <macer1> danielboston, 10.04
[20:52] <separate> macer1: Well, I can also go switch to slackware, and I won't have any stability problems. :P I'm just comfortable with the setup, aside from this one issue.
[20:52] <separate> macer1: I have this weird, completely unjustified distaste for rhythmbox.
[20:52] <yugandhar> Travor69420: Are you there?
[20:52] <danielboston26> macer1 do you have any experince with this?
[20:53] <yugandhar> Hey Guys can anyone tell me is Openfire chat application is for LAN or WAN?
[20:53] <macer1> danielboston I am running 11.10 on Intel Mac :P But I know that there is 10.04 for PowerPC
[20:54] <macer1> that people reported to work on ppc macs
[20:54] <zykotick9> Trevor69420: ^^ lol
[20:54] <danielboston26> may i pm you?
[20:54] <ActionParsnip> yugandhar: could be for both if you open the ports and tell your clients to connect to the wan IP
[20:54] <macer1> yes, no problem :P
[20:55] <Trevor69420> yugandhar, IT"S FOR FREAKING LAN AND WAN
[20:56] <yugandhar> ActionParsnip:  I want this openfire use for only lan
[20:56] <yugandhar> we can use it right?
[20:56] <Trevor69420> YES
[20:56] <Trevor69420> JUST POINT THEM TO THE LAN IP
[20:56] <Trevor69420> sheesh
[20:56] <Trevor69420> it's only WAN if you make it WAN
[20:56] <Trevor69420> if you dont then it isnt
[20:57] <Trevor69420> simple as that
[20:57] <pilz> Where can I search packages online?

[21:05] <Trevor69420> god this is gonna be a long time to explain this
[21:05] <Trevor69420> he doesnt even know if he has a router
[21:05] <nathaneltitane> :)
[21:06] <StevenCodes221> ok how would I check in windows if I can connect to my ssh server
[21:06] <zykotick9> Trevor69420: regret the out of repo suggestion yet?
[21:06] <P1rate> StevenCodes221: use putty
[21:06] <Trevor69420> zykotick9, that's not even the half of it
[21:06] <Trevor69420> trying to just get java installed
[21:06] <StevenCodes221> P1rate:  I try but my host wont give me the damn ip
[21:07] <jeremiah_gatong> check if the sshd is running, port 22 should be open, use nmap
[21:07] <jeremiah_gatong> then us putty to connect
[21:08] <ActionParsnip> jeremiah_gatong: you can telnet to the port to see if it is listening
[21:08] <jeremiah_gatong> yup
[21:09] <TehAndrewRyan> I'm having an issue viewing an updated version of our forums. I've flushed my DNS, cleared browser cache and cookies, tried with a different browser, reset my router, but it still shows the old page when I try to view it. Any ideas/suggestions?
[21:10] <step_offset> TehAndrewRyan: you using a proxy?
[21:11] <MrWizard> Turn JS on?
[21:11] <TehAndrewRyan> I'm not, step_offset. In fact I'm not at home, and I had this exact issue at home (forums not updating, even though I flushed my DNS) but I was able to see it after connecting with another IP
[21:11] <step_offset> TehAndrewRyan: but are you using the same computer each time?
[21:11] <TehAndrewRyan> step_offset: Or well, I was able to view it where I'm now, which is another IP
[21:11] <TehAndrewRyan> step_offset: I tried on two computers, didn't work on any of them
[21:11] <step_offset> TehAndrewRyan: and I must ask the obvious question, how do you know it's not 'updated', define 'updated'
[21:11] <TehAndrewRyan> step_offset: And right now I'm just on one computer, yes
[21:12] <TehAndrewRyan> step_offset: Hm, we had an old host that died on us, our admin set up a temporary site with another host, but now our primary host is back up again.
[21:12] <TehAndrewRyan> step_offset: And I can't see the old page anymore
[21:13] <TehAndrewRyan> step_offset: Others claim that they're able to view the page after flushing their DNS, I don't seem to be able to no matter what I try
[21:14] <TehAndrewRyan> step_offset: And you know, not being able to view your own forums isn't a pleasing fact.
[21:14] <step_offset> TehAndrewRyan: So you had a   HOSTNAME served in scheme like:  HostA---site_a   HostB---site_b   with site_a  being the current desired target? but when you request HOSTNAME, you're served site_b ?
[21:14] <onezerotwo> i just installed vmware workstation so i can run ubuntu inside windows
[21:15] <step_offset> TehAndrewRyan: if you don't mind, and it's public, msg me the hostname
[21:15] <TehAndrewRyan> step_offset: Exactly. Because the old and new sites were using the same address, but I'm automatically redirected to the last one I visited, even though it's not the "updated" one
[21:16] <Xeneth> While not 100% Ubuntu:  On my Ubuntu server, what is the best linux if I want to vitalize each service in it's own virtual server?  Not sure how much this will tax the machine.
[21:16] <TehAndrewRyan> step_offset: You mean the URL to the site?
[21:16] <step_offset> yes
[21:16] <ActionParsnip> Xeneth: there is no single best solution for anything
[21:17] <Xeneth> ActionParsnip, ok, any suggestions then?
[21:18] <Amoz> Xeneth, hi tech stuff, but basically hosting companies use OpenVZ for virtual private servers
[21:18] <Amoz> and Xen
[21:18] <spanner3003> hi i'm on xubuntu 11.10 64bit and i want to updrate my cpu
[21:19] <spanner3003> can i just pull out the old one install the new one and restart?
[21:19] <Amoz> spanner3003, update your central processing unit?
[21:19] <spanner3003> yes Amoz
[21:19] <spanner3003> i know what a cpu is
[21:19] <Amoz> spanner3003, if it's the same socket then there should be no problem afaik
[21:19] <guntbert> spanner3003: yes, you can
[21:19] <StevenCodes221> is ssl like ssh ?
[21:20] <Amoz> StevenCodes221, no
[21:20] <StevenCodes221> damn
[21:20] <guntbert> spanner3003: from the OS point of view - I didn't talk about sockets and the like
[21:20] <Xeneth> Amoz, This is inside my house.  The reason I want to vitalize it is: 1. to separate the different services, and 2. so that I can get some experience with virtual servers.
[21:20] <spanner3003> ok thank you amox guntbert
[21:21] <Amoz> Xeneth, if you want an "easier" solution I suppose virtualbox should be an option as well
[21:21] <ActionParsnip> spanner3003: should be fine, go for it
[21:21] <spanner3003> k got you thanks all
[21:22] <Xeneth> Amoz, Does virtualbox have a daemon?
[21:22] <Xeneth> Amoz, No GUI on the server.
[21:22] <Star_Light> I want to take some general informations in order to create my forum.... is there any proper channel for that?
[21:23] <Star_Light> information*
[21:23] <Amoz> Xeneth, virtualbox can be cli only
[21:23] <Silverlion> Star_Light: what kind of information?
[21:23] <StevenCodes221> dude i haveispconfig theres gotta be ssh
[21:24] <Star_Light> Silverlion,  for instance... I want to ask some details for the domain name
[21:24] <Xeneth> Amoz, Not the one I am use to, but I'll look into it.
[21:24] <Xeneth> Amoz, Thanks
[21:24] <Trevor69420> anyone know what repo needs to be added to the sources.list file to get sun java installed on 10.10

[21:24] <Amoz> Trevor69420, maverick?
[21:24] <Trevor69420> lucid
[21:24] <Amoz> 10.04 then
[21:24] <ActionParsnip> Trevor69420: what is the output of:  uname -m
[21:24] <Trevor69420> yes
[21:24] <Trevor69420> deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner
[21:25] <Amoz> Trevor69420, not being unhelpful but, have you tried google it? :)
[21:25] <P1rate> Trevor69420: what do you want the java for? a guy yesterday was asking about java 1.6 for armitage
[21:25] <Trevor69420> amoz yes of course lol
[21:25] <Silverlion> Star_Light: no channel that i know of
[21:25] <Trevor69420> i'm trying to get for a requisite to something else
[21:26] <Silverlion> Star_Light: but i can be mistaken
[21:26] <Trevor69420> ActionParsnip, sorry... i686
[21:26] <ActionParsnip> Trevor69420: sweet, gimme a sec
[21:26] <Trevor69420> k thanks
[21:26] <Star_Light> Silverlion,  no problem my friend and thank you
[21:26] <Star_Light> may you know something ???
[21:27] <Silverlion> Star_Light: just ask ^^ i think the channel will try to help at its best
[21:27] <ActionParsnip> Trevor69420: wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8850924/install32bitJava; chmod +x ./install32bitJava; sudo ./install32bitJava
[21:27] <Star_Light> Can I make an account here -> http://www.forumotion.com/ and then buy a domain ? for my forum
[21:27] <P1rate> Star_Light: do you want a free domain or you want to buy one?
[21:28] <P1rate> Star_Light:you have to choose your hosting company and look at their others :)
[21:28] <ActionParsnip> Trevor69420: oracle java isn't packaged, but that script will install itfor you
[21:28] <Trevor69420> thanks ActionParsnip
[21:28] <Star_Light> P1rate,  first I want to take a ready forum platform and then I want to make my forum independent
[21:28] <Trevor69420> :-)
[21:28] <Star_Light> using a different domain
[21:28] <Trevor69420> trying it now
[21:28] <ActionParsnip> Trevor69420: thats the way to install it the manual way but people seem to find it too hard
[21:29] <Trevor69420> thats not hard
[21:29] <Trevor69420> i just couldnt find it online lol
[21:29] <ActionParsnip> Trevor69420: thats is MY script, its not very mentioned online
[21:29] <ericus> Is there any easy GUI way to access startup applications in 11.10?
[21:30] <ericus> Gnome Classic
[21:30] <nschuster> hi.  just installed ubuntu on my notebook and have a few questions.
[21:30] <P1rate> nschuster: like ?
[21:31] <ActionParsnip> ericus: There is no classic in Oneiric
[21:31] <nschuster> it seems that my software centre has a very limited amount of apps avialable.  for example if i search 'world of goo' that program doesn't show up in the results
[21:31] <ActionParsnip> ericus: can you give the output of:   sudo apt-get install pastebinit;clear; pastebinit /etc/lsb-release
[21:31] <ActionParsnip> nschuster: should it be in the repos
[21:32] <ericus> ActionParsnip: I'm running gnome-fallback-session
[21:32] <ericus> not on that computer right now
[21:32] <ericus> but I HATE unity
[21:32] <Somelauw> I got wmii to work again. Unfortunately the version that ubuntu provided doesn't seem to contain a tray.
[21:32] <nschuster> repos?
[21:32] <ericus> I'd like to remove a bunch of startup apps
[21:33] <P1rate> nschuster: http://www.worldofgoo.com/dl2.php?lk=demo take a look it has a .deb package
[21:33] <ActionParsnip> ericus: run:  gnome-session-properties
[21:33] <dlentz> ActionParsnip, ubuntu actually refers to gnome3-fallback as "classic" even though that's the same name they used for gnome2 in natty
[21:33] <stephanb> Somelauw: does wmii contain a tray anyway?
[21:33] <ericus> ActionParsnip: I'll try, just gonna boot my laptop
[21:34] <ericus> ActionParsnip: On my WS I run 11.04, and I like that a lot better
[21:34] <Somelauw> stephanb: The newest version did. This version seems to contain an invisible tray, since nm-applet works, but it doesn't show a tray icon.
[21:35] <ActionParsnip> ericus: there are other DEs than gnome you know
[21:35] <stephanb> Somelauw: ah okay... i didn't look into wmii for some years ;)
[21:35] <ActionParsnip> ericus: xfce runs and looks a LOT like Gnome2
[21:35] <Somelauw> I like a tray, since I haven't figured ou how to make a wireless connection without nm-applet.
[21:35] <Somelauw> stephanb: What do you use?
[21:35] <ericus> ActionParsnip: Yes I know, but I'm so used to it
[21:35] <ActionParsnip> ericus: you can run all the gnome apps you use, in xfce too
[21:35] <ericus> tried XFCE
[21:35] <ActionParsnip> ericus: it even has the same menu layout
[21:35] <Somelauw> Maybe the tray is normally visible but just buggy on my laptop since I have been messing a bit.
[21:35] <stephanb> Somelauw: xfce.. but as a tiling manager i like awesome a lot
[21:36] <ActionParsnip> Somelauw: could try wicd
[21:36] <nschuster> so many available programs aren't going to be searchable from the software centre?  i have to go out and find them?
[21:36] <stephanb> ActionParsnip: just to get a tray icon?
[21:36] <stephanb> nschuster: that kind of bugs me too, but you can use "apt-cache search"
[21:37] <Somelauw> stephanb: I have tried awesome as well, but I like that in wmii I have more control over the windows.
[21:37] <ericus> ActionParsnip: gnome in 11.10 does not show all the startup applications, just "additional" onces
[21:37] <motst_> could anyone help me in installing ubuntu 64 bit on a sony vaio z series?
[21:37]  * dlentz is a synaptic holdout
[21:37] <nschuster> sorry stephanb.  i am not up on my computer lingo.  what is apt-cache search?
[21:37] <stephanb> nschuster: a command line utility to search software
[21:37] <exco_> gordon1234, http://pastebin.com/3QppUXbG for your benchmarklist
[21:38] <stephanb> nschuster: you use it like "apt-cache search WHATYOUWANTTOFIND"
[21:38] <nschuster> oh ok
[21:38] <nschuster> thanks
[21:38] <ActionParsnip> ericus: what startup thing do you want to remove or add?
[21:39] <ActionParsnip> moises_: download the ISO, MD5 test it, burn it to CD and boot the CD.
[21:39] <zykotick9> motst_: does your sony have more then 4GB of RAM?
[21:39] <stephanb> nschuster: as i see now, synaptic is in the repos too, you can install that and get the old way of searching back
[21:39] <ericus> ActionParsnip: a lot, like bluetooth, ubuntu one etc
[21:39] <dlentz> gnome used to be somewhat more modular (gnome3 requires things like bluetooth and accessibility packages, yuck)
[21:40] <motst_> zykotick9: yes
[21:40] <mengu> hi.
[21:40] <zykotick9> motst_: ok, just checkin'
[21:40] <ActionParsnip> ericus: so you want to remove both of those?
[21:40] <gordon1234> exco_ have you the correct person?
[21:40] <mengu> my computer is an acer aspire 7750g and it has internal microphone. how do i enable and use it with ubuntu 11.04?
[21:40] <exco_> gordon1234, seems not
[21:40] <ActionParsnip> mengu: run:   alsamixer    is it unmuted?
[21:41] <CharminTheMoose> Is it possible for me to send the upstart output from tty7 to tty1?
[21:41] <gordon1234> exco_ you worries :-)
[21:41] <gordon1234> *no worries
[21:41] <motst_> zykotick9: very funny
[21:41] <ericus> ActionParsnip: just remove them from the startup applications, which was a lot easier in 11.04
[21:41] <ciccibu> ciao
[21:41] <nschuster> i think i have synaptic package manager installed already
[21:41] <ciccibu> !list
[21:42] <ActionParsnip> ericus: do you use ubuntuone at all?
[21:42] <ericus> no ActionParsnip
[21:42] <mengu> ActionParsnip: i see internal mic boost is red so i guess not muted. but sound recorder does not record my voice
[21:42] <zykotick9> motst_: i wasn't trying to be funny?
[21:42] <ActionParsnip> ericus: then uninstall it...
[21:42] <mengu> it also does not detech when i plug my headphone's mic
[21:43] <sraecdiscr> sraecdiscr,
[21:43] <motst_> zykotick9: do you have any idea about the installation
[21:43] <Lars_G> Quick question, I'm booting a 10.4 server. It's checking the hdd for the times it's been mounted without check, or so it says, but either on the graphical screen (which I dissabled removing splash from grub) or the text console it says the disk wil be checked but no progress bar or feedback, is there any way to see the check is actually in progress?
