[19:17] <nit-wit> rhino, cool
[19:17] <zykotick9> chat4life, if you started with Ubuntu Mini you could install only what you want.  The mini is basically a debian netinstall cd, with Ubuntu repos.
[19:17] <wdp_> MrUnagi, might be a permission issue. check them using ls -la .. tho just a blind guess.
[19:18] <chat4life> tried debian netinstall did work for me
[19:18] <blade> wdp_, i have no idea what it is
[19:18] <wdp_> blade, the opensource ati driver.
[19:18] <chat4life> didn't work for me
[19:18] <MrUnagi> all of them are owned by user : user
[19:18] <MrUnagi> is it suppose to be something else?
[19:18] <blade> wdp_, i loose all my 3d when i try to use that one

[19:19] <neo21> hi
[19:19] <anli_> I get a message telling me 0 packages needed to be upgraded etc
[19:19] <zykotick9> tucemiux, i personally think LABELs make life easier
[19:19] <MrUnagi> wdp_: ^^^ sorry
[19:19] <neo21> someone with Apache experience here?
[19:19] <Thrawn> Transmission says port XXXXX is closed even though its open; and it wont connect, any idea why?

[19:20] <blade> 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS880 [Radeon HD 4250]
[19:20] <blade> 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Redwood [Radeon HD 5670]
[19:20] <nit-wit> anli_, sounds like you're fully upgradeed on that OS are you tring to upgrade to another distro?
[19:20] <MrUnagi> wdp_: the only thing i see is Cannot open mailbox /var/mail/fmaster: Permission denied
[19:20] <MrUnagi> but mail shouldn't be delivered to /var/mail
[19:20] <wdp_> MrUnagi, is fmaster your username?
[19:20] <MrUnagi> its the test user
[19:20] <SwedeMike> !private | neo21
[19:21] <blade> wdp_, can i pm you
[19:21] <wdp_> blade, allowed.
[19:21] <wdp_> MrUnagi, well, i guess there's your problem.
[19:21] <anli_> nit-wit: Maybe, but the dist is not the newest
[19:21] <anli_> nit-wit: Its still 10.10
[19:21] <neo21> anyone with Apache experience here? especially mod_cache and 10.04 64bit server?
[19:21] <nit-wit> wdp_, can you do that in the voice of Darth Vader.;)
[19:22] <MrUnagi> there is no /var/mail/fmaster folder wdp_
[19:22] <wdp_> nit-wit, nah, in that voice i only learned "luke, i'm your father!"
[19:22] <SwedeMike> neo21: you're still not getting it. ASK THE REAL QUESTION. And as it in the channel, not in pm.
[19:22] <SwedeMike> ask
[19:22] <Pin> hi is Ubuntu 11.10 going to include Gnome 3.0?
[19:23] <Uhonia> Probably not Pin.
[19:23] <kroq-gar78> !ask | neo21
[19:23] <Pin> :(
[19:23] <chat4life> hate ubńity and gnome 3
[19:23] <chat4life> ünity
[19:23] <kroq-gar78> Pin: AFAIK, yes
[19:23] <Uhonia> agree, they both suck
[19:23] <Pin> AFAIK meaning?
[19:23] <kroq-gar78> it will be included AFAIK
[19:23] <kroq-gar78> as far as I know
[19:23] <kroq-gar78> = AFAIk
[19:23] <nit-wit> wdp_, ;)
[19:23] <SwedeMike> Pin: according to th einformation on for instance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_11.10#Ubuntu_11.10_.28Oneiric_Ocelot.29 it's going to run Gnome 3.0
[19:24] <kjeldor> help!! i am now on (normal mode without effects) i accidentally enabled some options inside DESKTOP CUBE, and now I cant use my desktop... how do i fix this?
[19:24] <Pin> ah ok. chat4life which is your fav/best enviorment in your opinion
[19:24] <kroq-gar78> !offtopic | Pin
[19:24] <ritzz> no one?
[19:24] <neo21> SwedeMike: Ok thanks. I think I got it now.
[19:25] <chat4life> Pin have no opinion use gnome like xfce and would love to try lxde (because it's fatser then xfce)
[19:25] <chat4life> (lxde more then i already have )
[19:25] <kroq-gar78> Pin: Unity's being ported from gtk2 to gtk3, so yes. Also, please use offtopic for this "polling" type of stuffz (I know hyppocrite ;)      )
[19:25] <MrUnagi> wdp_: after making the dir that didn't exist i now get Cannot open mailbox /var/mail/fmaster: Is a directory
[19:26] <wdp_> MrUnagi, because it should be a file.
[19:26] <Pin> what do you mean by offtopic
[19:26] <Lal-Ohlal> I just installed the ATI Catalyst driver from ATI's site on my fresh insstall HP DM3 notebook and now after the reboot I can't get X to start. It crashes and drops to shell.
[19:26] <MrUnagi> what is suppose to make it
[19:26] <wdp_> MrUnagi, sudo rm -rf /var/mail/fmaster && touch /var/mail/fmaster && chown user:group /var/mail/fmaster
[19:26] <kroq-gar78> Pin: basically, polling isn't really support based, so switch there
[19:26] <zykotick9> !poll | Pin
[19:26] <wdp_> MrUnagi, obviously you have to replace user:group with real data :p
[19:26] <MrUnagi> I'm starting to get weary here because, the mail isn't located in /var/mail
[19:26] <MrUnagi> why is it looking there
[19:26] <Pin> ok
[19:27] <wdp_> because user mail lands there :>
[19:27] <MrUnagi> what about ~/Maildir/new?
[19:27] <Lal-Ohlal> anyone? :(
[19:28] <MrUnagi> thats where the mail was actually sent
[19:28] <neo21> Using Apache 2.2.14 and the bundled mod_cache does not seem to work with the default config...at least for me. The disk_cache is being missed all the time (the cache dir is empty) and sadly there is no logging available...is there a bug/caveat related to ubuntu I am just not aware of? thanks.
[19:28] <Pin> When will Ubuntu 11.10 be released?
[19:28] <zykotick9> Lal-Ohlal, if you've chosen to not use Ubuntu's supported method for installing drivers, try the #ati channel (not too many people there though)
[19:29] <MrUnagi> pin 10 2011?
[19:29] <ritzz> thanx for nothing
[19:29] <ritzz> you never answer
[19:29] <ThinkT510> !11.10 | Pin
[19:29] <Pin> Ah ok, So after my birthday. Great! :) thanks
[19:29] <wdp_> MrUnagi, sorry, can't help.
[19:30] <zykotick9> Pin, ubuntu version numbers are the release date 11.10 means 2011, 10th month
[19:31] <Pin> thanks
[19:31] <MrUnagi> =(
[19:31] <Pin> :)
[19:31] <Pin> Learned something new, I didnt know :)
[19:32] <chat4life> any one tried ubuntu 11.10 alpha ?
[19:33] <zykotick9> chat4life, try #ubuntu+1
[19:33] <coz_> chat4life,  you want to go to  #ubuntu+1  which is the official pre release channel
[19:34] <chat4life> ok
[19:36] <MrUnagi> i don't understand why mail is trying to open /var/mail this doesn't make sense
[19:37] <mic> ho bisogno di aiutoooooooo
[19:37] <wdp_> MrUnagi, because "local" mail is usually sent there.
[19:38] <MrUnagi> unless i am using Maildir
[19:38] <funkeyy> Hi ! i just altered the password for root on my pc.. but now when i do sudo-commands, it still works with the old pass.. whats wrong here?
[19:38] <mic> ho appena instaato ubuntu a posto di xp e non mi fa connettere con a wifi usb
[19:38] <mic> come poso risovere
[19:38] <alikon> biedronka
[19:38] <zykotick9> funkeyy, sudo != root password
[19:38] <MrUnagi> how do i make it NOT look there
[19:38] <kroq-gar78> mic: langugage?
[19:38] <mic> itaiano
[19:38] <guampa> !it
[19:38] <chat4life> fffurhjruruhrrrrr
[19:38] <kroq-gar78> guampa: beat me :P
[19:39] <guampa> :P
[19:39] <mic> okgrazie
[19:39] <zykotick9> funkeyy, sudo relies on the users password.  What are you trying to actually do?
[19:39] <wdp_> lol
[19:39] <wdp_> !de
[19:39] <wdp_> lol
[19:39] <guampa> ?
[19:39] <chat4life> funkeyy try reboote
[19:39] <wdp_> guampa, nothing nothing .)
[19:39] <funkeyy> zykes-, uhm.. but what is it then.. i thought certain operations need to be done by root and sudo switches temporary to beeing root
[19:40] <kyan> Hello! How can I keep maximised windows from going under certain screenlets?
[19:40] <MrUnagi> never mind i got it
[19:40] <funkeyy> zykotick9, uhm.. but what is it then.. i thought certain operations need to be done by root and sudo switches temporary to beeing root
[19:40] <wdp_> MrUnagi, don't let us die dumb. What is it? :)
[19:40] <zykotick9> funkeyy, TAB FAIL - yes sudo uses the root account, with the users password
[19:40] <funkeyy> zykotick9, okay Oo..
[19:40] <zykotick9> !root | funkeyy
[19:40] <MrUnagi> under the mail user MAIL=/home/fmaster/Maildir
[19:41] <z3r0> hey guys, quick question I was connected to a server and installing Catalyst when my latop battery died, Is there aanyway to grab that pts connection again??
[19:41] <funkeyy> zykotick9, thanks!
[19:41] <funkeyy> zykotick9, crazy concept though
[19:42] <korsi> Hello! I reinstalled grub. It made my archlinux path to root=/dev/hda3 ro. It should be /dev/sda. So it didnt boot.  So i edited manually grup.cfg to match. Should this be reported as bug?
[19:42] <kroq-gar78> funkeyy: you can also do sudo -i or sudo su, but I don't reccomed
[19:42] <zykotick9> funkeyy, ya, I'm not sure what I think is better, sudo or root account.  But Ubuntu uses sudo, so you should stick to that.
[19:42] <zykotick9> kroq-gar78, not "sudo su"!  funkeyy
[19:42] <kroq-gar78> zykotick9: y not?
[19:43] <zykotick9> kroq-gar78, doesn't set environment properly, can end up causing problems.
[19:43] <kroq-gar78> zykotick9: ah good to know. I always use sudo -i anyway :P
[19:47] <uhonia> Hi there, im on U10.10 and im trying to install a few things. But got a broken pack error. Is there an easy way to solve this, becasue synaptic gives me 100's of packs listed as broken... and i don't really want to remove all of them
[19:47] <kroq-gar78> uhonia: have you tried to do "sudo dpkg --configure -a
[19:47] <kroq-gar78> " and "sudo apt-get install -f"?
[19:47] <coz_> uhonia,  in synaptic package manager under the Edit menu I believe is a "fix broken packages" option
[19:47] <kroq-gar78> just taking a random guess here...
[19:48] <uhonia> yup yesterday, nada. Found a few things on the net and they gave me loads of terminal stuff to type in, but didn't seam to help
[19:48] <[snake]> I just removed the ubuntu desktop package after downloading fluxbox, because I like fluxbox :) so how can I remove all of the gnome apps?
[19:49] <coz_> uhonia,  did you try the synaptic  "Fix broken packages"  option?
[19:49] <noman> I just installed the ATI Properitary driver on my DM3 but the graphics are still laggy :(
[19:49] <uhonia> one moment, I don't think I saw that option
[19:49] <coz_> uhonia,  its under the "Edit" menu
[19:50] <kroq-gar78> [snake]: "sudo apt-get remove libgtk"?
[19:50] <kroq-gar78> [snake]: you might have to find all of the gkt libraries through "aptitude search gtk"
[19:50] <coz_> noman,  are you running Unity?
[19:50] <noman> coz_: KDE :(
[19:50] <uhonia> Hmm it still lists them as broken for some reason. I might just reinstall
[19:51] <coz_> noman,  mm darn,,,
[19:51] <kroq-gar78> uhonia: sudo apt-get install -f or have you done that already?
[19:52] <Bfh> Ubuntu 11.04 Question: Basicly when you click the sound option to change volume Banshee is located under the sound option button (beside wifi connection and so on) would like to change this to VLC player and get rid of banshee from this winder -- will settle of tutorial or step by step instructions, any help is appreciated !
[19:52] <uhonia> I have, it only removed one package and didn't solve the software centre install issue (IE telling me I have broken packs and need to fix it)
[19:52] <zykotick9> uhonia, try "sudo apt-get -f install" if it fails, pastebin the output back to the channel.
[19:53] <noman> coz_, Any idea what I should do? :(
[19:53] <zykotick9> uhonia, did you add some repo before this problem started?
[19:53] <uhonia> P5Q-PRO:~$ sudo apt-get install -f
[19:53] <uhonia> Reading package lists... Done
[19:53] <uhonia> Building dependency tree
[19:53] <uhonia> Reading state information... Done

[19:53] <coz_> noman,   not sure did you check in #radeon channel?
[19:53] <kroq-gar78> uhonia: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=947124
[19:53] <noman> thanks, I'll check now
[19:53] <coz_>  noman  or  #kubuntu  channel
[19:53] <kroq-gar78> uhonia
[19:53] <uhonia> Yeah a webup8 to get the global menu app
[19:54] <kroq-gar78> : lok at Gazneth's post
[19:54] <[snake]> I think I'll just keep my gnome apps anyways... they don't bother me that much.
[19:54] <zykotick9> uhonia, try "sudo apt-get -f install" - but use PASTEBIN not the channel for multi-line pasting
[19:54] <kroq-gar78> [snake]: unless you hav ereplacements, don't remove them I suggest
[19:54] <uhonia> gotcha
[19:54] <niels__> hej
[19:55] <nicofs> I try to encode something using ffmpeg and libx264 and all i get is "Unknown encoder 'libx264'" what do i do? (libx264 is installed - i checked)
[19:55] <kroq-gar78> nicofs: sudo apt-get install libx264
[19:55] <coz_> nicofs,   sudo apt-get install  ubuntu-restricted-extras
[19:56] <kroq-gar78> nicofs: sudo apt-get install libx264-106
[19:57] <nicofs> kroq-gar78, coz_ thanks, but as i said, it is installed...
[19:57] <coz_> nicofs,  oof  didnt see that part
[19:57] <coz_> nicofs,  what command are you using with ffmpeg?
[19:58] <kroq-gar78> gosh why does XCHAT keep crashing :|
[19:59] <YankDownUnder> kroq-gar78, are you using "Xchat" or "Gnome Xchat" ?
[19:59] <kroq-gar78> YankDownUnder: gnome xchat
[19:59] <coz_> kroq-gar78,  is it crashing or closing?
[19:59] <kroq-gar78> it crashed once when opening prefs
[19:59] <YankDownUnder> kroq-gar78, If you ditch that and use the "proper" xchat, you might not have the same issues.
[19:59] <coz_> ah
[20:00] <kroq-gar78> coz_: closing.
[20:00] <nicofs> coz_, i'm using a script because i don't want to be bothered with ffmpeg commands - but the script uses "-vcodec libx264"
[20:00] <kroq-gar78> coz_: but isnt that crashing if it wasn't supposed to close?
[20:00] <YankDownUnder> kroq-gar78, Most likely it's freaking out at the GTK theme settings...
[20:00] <Pin> Guys if i install Gnome 3.0 unto my Ubuntu 11.04 can I still use ubuntu Classic mode?
[20:00] <coz_> kroq-gar78,  ok are you sure,, and I am just guessing,, that you arenot hitting some keybinding that might close out of it?  I do it all the time with xchat
[20:00] <blade> kroq-gar78, i use Xchat and have never once had a problem with it
[20:00] <MrUnagi> what is the default firewall in ubuntu
[20:00] <YankDownUnder> Pin, No.
[20:00] <coz_> kroq-gar78,  well unless you are hitting a keybinding
[20:00] <YankDownUnder> MrUnagi, ufw
[20:00] <Pin> no?
[20:00] <kroq-gar78> YankDownUnder: ok. what's th epackage for xchat?
[20:01] <kroq-gar78> coz_ what would that keybinding be?
[20:01] <YankDownUnder> kroq-gar78, It's just called "Xchat"
[20:01] <blade> i need to be in shell command line with no x running ... how do i do it?
[20:01] <coz_> MrUnagi,   iptales
[20:01] <coz_> no
[20:01] <YankDownUnder> blade, Remove GDM
[20:01] <coz_> MrUnagi,   iptables
[20:01] <MrUnagi> iptables or ufw =(
[20:01] <sudokill> MrUnagi, ufw is
[20:01] <YankDownUnder> !ufw
[20:01] <kroq-gar78> YankDownUnder: NOT remove X, just exit (I think)
[20:01] <coz_> kroq-gar78,  :) I have yet to figure out the combinations that keep closing it for me
[20:01] <Pin> Ok thank you
[20:02] <z3r0> is there anyway of getting back a previous pts after losing the terminal?
[20:02] <kroq-gar78> coz_: k ty for the help ;) how do I open xchat? is it command line?
[20:02] <zykotick9> blade, to stop Xorg/GDM use the command "sudo service gdm stop"
[20:02] <blade> YankDownUnder,  i only need to be there long enough to input a few commands
[20:02] <coz_> kroq-gar78,  no  it should be in the menus  under Internet
[20:02] <YankDownUnder> blade, ALT-F1
[20:02] <coz_> kroq-gar78,  just install it
[20:02] <kroq-gar78> coz_ k ty
[20:02] <blade> zykotick9, i have tried that one and it did not shut down x all the way
[20:02] <coz_> kroq-gar78,  I think you will eventually appreciate xchat far more than gnome-xchat
[20:02] <sudokill> kroq-gar78, just click the icon or type xchat in terminal
[20:02] <nicofs> coz_, apparently, the ffmpeg provided by ubuntu doesn't have h264...
[20:03] <blade> YankDownUnder, during boot alt f1
[20:03] <coz_> nicofs,  which command were you using?
[20:03] <blade> ?
[20:03] <kroq-gar78> sudokill: k ty ;)
[20:03] <coz_> nicofs,  let me test it here with default ffmpeg
[20:03] <YankDownUnder> ALT-F1 => login as root, do: /etc/init.d/gdm stop => run your whatevers => then do /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[20:03] <zykotick9> YankDownUnder, that's outdated commands
[20:04] <coz_> or   sudo restart gdm
[20:04] <kroq-gar78> I'm installing xchat and this is what happened: "WARNING: Failed to parse default value `' for schema (/schemas/apps/devhelp/state/main/contents/books_disabled)" it still installed but what it mean? should I be worried?
[20:04] <YankDownUnder> zykotick9, They still work.
[20:04] <nicofs> coz_, "ffmpeg -i \"#{file}\" -vcodec libx264 -vpre hq -b 800k -s #{osize[0]}x#{osize[1]} -acodec libmp3lame -ab 128k -ac 2 \"#{file}.n900.mp4\"
[20:04] <zykotick9> YankDownUnder, still outdated ;)
[20:04] <kroq-gar78> zykotick9: how do I kill X if I'm using LXDE?
[20:04] <YankDownUnder> zykotick9, If it works,it's not outdated.
[20:04] <blade> kroq-gar78, failed to parse means you typed something wrong
[20:04] <coz_> nicofs,   ok let me see if I can test that here
[20:04] <kroq-gar78> blade: but it installed...
[20:05] <zykotick9> kroq-gar78, do you have a login manager?  which one?  if not, you can use alt+sysrq(usually print screen)+k
[20:05] <blade> YankDownUnder, zykotick9  how do i stop boot from going into x .... i an NOT running dual boot
[20:06] <nicofs> coz_, i did "ldd /usr/bin/ffmpeg" and the output didn't contain h264 - so i guess it's not included in ubuntu h264...
[20:06] <zykotick9> blade, to prevent GDM from starting temporarily rename /etc/init/gdm to /etc/init/gdm.disabled - then rename it back to have it start again.
[20:06] <kroq-gar78> zykotick9: k ty for the info. On alot of my old comps, I just don't install gdm/xdm/kdm/slim/lxdm/whateverdm. ty for the info. If I AM running a dm (e.g. lxdm) what command should I use?
[20:07] <cyperbg> how can  check the permissions of a hidden folder? - .ssh
[20:07] <zykotick9> kroq-gar78, i'm not sure what DM lxde uses?  but the command is "sudo service DMHERE stop"
[20:07] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: ll 'folder'
[20:07] <kroq-gar78> zykotick9: k ty dude ;)
[20:07] <coz_> nicofs,  apparenlty I get unreconized option vocodec
[20:07] <blade> zykotick9, what ever happened to the good old days of ctrl alt f2 at boot up?
[20:07] <coz_> nicofs,   vcodec rather
[20:07] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: where 'folder' is .ssh
[20:08] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78  I got it
[20:08] <cyperbg> and also how can I set the permissions for that folder to be only read and writeable by ME
[20:08] <nicofs> coz_, but that is a standard ffmpeg parameter...
[20:08] <zykotick9> blade, you can still use VTs, not sure that will help you (as GDM/etc. would still be running)
[20:08] <kroq-gar78> chmod 700 .ssh
[20:08] <coz_> nicofs,  that was libx264  ..yes?
[20:09] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78 10X
[20:09] <blade> zykotick9, so in order for me to fix this.... i first need to break it more?
[20:09] <zykotick9> blade, what are you doing?

[20:09] <cyperbg> drwxr-xr-x 39 cyper cyper 4096 2011-07-24 19:03 ../
[20:09] <cyperbg> -rw-------  1 cyper cyper  210 2011-07-24 19:01 authorized_keys
[20:09] <kroq-gar78> nicofs: sudo apt-get install libx264-106?
[20:09] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78 does it look ok?
[20:09] <blade> zykotick9, killing RandR
[20:09] <cyperbg> what is the difference between ./ and ../
[20:10] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: do chmod -R 700, and otherwise yes
[20:10] <blade> zykotick9, and i can not be in x to do it
[20:10] <zykotick9> blade, oh this is some ATI issue isn't it?
[20:10] <coz_> nicofs,   apparenlty I have libx264 by default on ubuntu 11.04  or after installing ffmpeg
[20:10] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: ./ is the current folder, ../ is the upper folder
[20:10] <blade> zykotick9, NO this is an ubuntu issue
[20:10] <coz_> nicofs,  something must be up on that end if it did no t install
[20:10] <zykotick9> blade, ok sorry, are you are using ATI?
[20:11] <op_amp> Hi, just like we have different desktop can't we have different panel at bottom which only shows the item opened in the current active window, not all windows
[20:11] <blade> zykotick9, yes
[20:11] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78 so in that case it is not showing the permissions of SSH?
[20:11] <nicofs> kroq-gar78, as i said it is installed...
[20:11] <blade> zykotick9, i know you dont like ati
[20:11] <kroq-gar78> nicofs: oh vsry didnt see that...
[20:11] <blade> zykotick9, i will not tell anyone you helped me
[20:11] <zykotick9> blade, ok - I'm not going to provide any further assistance in this regard.  Please ignore everything I've said up until this point.  Someone else can better assist you.
[20:11] <nicofs> coz_, what apart from apt-get install ffmpeg ubuntu-restricted-formats /-codecs do i need to do...?
[20:11] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: what do you mean? I dont
[20:11] <coz_> nicofs,  I am puzzled then
[20:12] <kroq-gar78> know much about ssh...
[20:12] <kroq-gar78> :(
[20:12] <blade> zykotick9,  lol
[20:12] <coz_> nicofs,  not sure,,  this is definitly puzzling
[20:12] <blade> zykotick9, may i ask why you hate ATI so much?
[20:12] <rww> heh, looks like zykotick9 has the same attitude about ATI as I have about NVIDIA
[20:12] <coz_> nicofs,  is the command correct in useage?
[20:12] <kroq-gar78> rww: LOLOLOLOLOLOL
[20:12] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78 I am in /home/cyper/ and execute ll .ssh So is .ssh ./ ? and foler cyper ./
[20:12] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78 I am in /home/cyper/ and execute ll .ssh So is .ssh ./ ? and foler cyper .//
[20:12] <zykotick9> blade, see rww's comment above ;)
[20:13] <sudokill> rww just cant afford nvidia card
[20:13] <sudokill> :)
[20:13] <coz_> nicofs,  rather in syntax
[20:13] <rww> sudokill: I assure you, I can :)
[20:13] <blade> rww, thing is that ATI is working great.... it's RandR that is messing up
[20:13] <sudokill> :p
[20:13] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: in that case, ./ will be cyper and ../ will be /home
[20:13] <nicofs> coz_, i assume it is - but i think it should be if ffmpeg is able to return the error of not finding the specified codec...
[20:13] <kroq-gar78> cypber: you ARE in /home/cyperbg, right? not /home/cyperbg/.shh?
[20:13] <blade> zykotick9, yes i seen it but that still dont tell me why you hate ATI.... did they run over your dog or something?
[20:13] <coz_> nicofs,  first think I would check is the syntax ,, that may be the only issue
[20:13] <cyperbg> so I need to enter .ssh and do ll .ssh
[20:14] <sudokill> cyperbg, do you have no gui?
[20:14] <kroq-gar78> cypberbg: no. just ll .ssh and ./ will be .ssh. sorry
[20:14] <zykotick9> blade, that's an OT question sorry.
[20:14] <kroq-gar78> sudokill: good to know some cli stuffs :)
[20:14] <cyperbg> sudokill I have Gnome
[20:14] <sudokill> just saying
[20:14] <zykotick9> blade, No dogs where harmed in forming my hatred of ATI ;)
[20:15] <sudokill> if your confused just right click it in the fm
[20:15] <sudokill> itll tell you permissions
[20:15] <blade> zykotick9, i guess my point is this.... ubuntu is all about people helping people.... and in order to get help from you i have to be cryptic.... but irc rules say to just come out and ask the question.... but i cant if i know that someone that i know to have the answer will not give it ....
[20:15] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78 so from /home/cyper/ I do ll .ssh
[20:15] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: ok sorry. ifyou do 'll .ssh' then './' will be '.ssh' and '../' will be cyper
[20:15] <kroq-gar78> so yes
[20:15] <rww> blade: Ubuntu's Code of Conduct also says to respect each other. Going against someone's wishes isn't really respectful :P
[20:15] <zykotick9> blade, helpers are volunteers here - we can choose to support or not.
[20:16] <edwardthefma> sup all
[20:16] <cyperbg> so then drwx------  2 cyper cyper 4096 2011-07-24 19:01 ./   -  Does it mean it is only only read and writeable by me?
[20:16] <blade> rww, awww #!%#@!$ i give up lol
[20:16] <coz_> that was a bit of a convolution
[20:16] <nicofs> coz_, as far as i see it, the syntax is ok...
[20:16] <kroq-gar78> cypberbg: hmm.... no.... do chmod 700 .ssh again and then do 'll .ssh'
[20:17] <blade> zykotick9, i understand that i just wanted to understand the passion behind the hate i guess....
[20:17] <kroq-gar78> I mean chmod -R 700 .ssh
[20:17] <coz_> nicofs,  ok I am officially puzzled,,  either stick around and see if someone more skilled with ffmpeg  an swers or try another channel , maybe  ##linux,,
[20:17] <edwardthefma> im trying to find lubuntu 9.10
[20:17] <edwardthefma> :(
[20:17] <zykotick9> blade, and that is offtopic for this channel.
[20:17] <kroq-gar78> !offtopic | blade
[20:17] <blade> zykotick9, ok you win
[20:17] <blade> lol
[20:17] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78 - I did sudo chmod 700 .ssh and got drwx------  2 cyper cyper 4096 2011-07-24 19:01 ./
[20:18] <coz_> edwardthefma,  was there an lubuntu 9.10 ?
[20:18] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: DONT do 'sudo' chmod. just do 'chmod 700 -R .ssh' and then 'll .ssh'
[20:18] <coz_> edwardthefma,  nevermind apparenlty there was
[20:18] <iosolidar> blade: why would that be off topic for the channel?
[20:18] <edwardthefma> coz thare was
[20:18] <nicofs> coz_, i think, i'll purge ffmpeg and compile myself...
[20:18] <rww> edwardthefma: http://download.lxde.org/lubuntu-9.10/ , perhaps? Though I note Lubuntu didn't become an official channel until natty or oneiric, so...
[20:18] <rww> s/channel/derivative/
[20:18] <spankbot> .
[20:19] <coz_> nicofs,  that might be the solultion,,, see what parameters you can compile that with also
[20:19] <edwardthefma> im trying to install it on a older pc i have
[20:19] <blade> iosolidar, cuz he feels i tricked him into helping me with an issue
[20:19] <kroq-gar78> !pastebin | cyperbg
[20:19] <edwardthefma> it dosent like 10 or 11
[20:19] <cyperbg> I get drwx------  2 cyper cyper 4096 2011-07-24 19:01 ./
[20:19] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: post the entire output there...
[20:19] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78 only short lines :)
[20:19] <spankbot> Interesting, I've installed VMWare workstation, when I start the app, I'm getting the error "Befor you can run VMware, several modules must be compiled and loaded into the running kernet
[20:19] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: just do 'll'

[20:20] <spankbot> sp.. kernel, GCC 4.6.0 version was not found
[20:20] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78 after I enter .ssh?
[20:20] <spankbot> this is a fresh install 64bit and the same disk I used on another machine that worked just fine.
[20:20] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: doesn't really matter. actually just type in 'pwd' and post the output
[20:20] <cyperbg> Just ll = drwx------  2 cyper cyper     4096 2011-07-24 19:01 .ssh/
[20:20] <coz_> edwardthefma,  so far I am only finding it as a torrent
[20:20] <cyperbg> pwd = /home/cyper
[20:21] <kroq-gar78> cypberbg: oh wait it's been right this whole time :|
[20:21] <edwardthefma> coz i found it
[20:21] <kroq-gar78> sorry
[20:21] <coz_> edwardthefma,  cool
[20:21] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78 so drwx------  2 cyper cyper means it is readable and writable only by me?
[20:21] <edwardthefma> hopfully this pc will acepptet it
[20:21] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: yes. sorry
[20:22] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78 10x - btw do you have any xperience with SSH + Putty + private/public keys
[20:22] <edwardthefma> i know it had 9.10 ubuntu on it but is dissliked 10 and 11
[20:22] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: no :/ someone else will have to help u with that...
[20:22] <cyperbg> kroq-gar78 thank you :)
[20:23] <kroq-gar78> cyperbg: np
[20:24] <coz_> nicofs,  are you going to download ffmpeg git ...yes?
[20:26] <nicofs> coz_, seems i have no choice... but since i'm en route to munich via the former GDR, download is not fast...
[20:26] <coz_> nicofs,  understood
[20:27] <nicofs> coz_, 6,700 B/s ...
[20:28] <coz_> nicofs,  yep :)
[20:29] <coz_> nicofs,  I also believe that libx264 comes with vlc  ,, for some reason that is sticking in my head
[20:29] <coz_> nicofs,  ah found this    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095
[20:29] <nicofs> coz_, it comes with vlc - and it's there...
[20:30] <cyperbg> guys I'm looking for someone who is willing to help with setting up Putty to connect using public/private keys to my Ubuntu machine. I've tried 2-3 different tutorials and each time I get Server refused our key
[20:30] <coz_> nicofs,  ok that last link seems to be "fairly" complete with additional parameters for compiling along with the necessary dependecies
[20:31] <nicofs> coz_, i just checked another ffmpeg script i wrote way back - which worked then - and it uses the same vcodec parameter...
[20:32] <coz_> nicofs,  ok so we know it was not the command,, darn,, that would have made it much simpler :)
[20:32] <nicofs> coz_, we all know murphy's law...
[20:33] <coz_> nicofs,  found this on the ffmpeg site as well   http://www.inb.uni-luebeck.de/~boehme/using_libavcodec.html   may be handy
[20:34] <coz_> nicofs,  i wasnt aware of the   av_register_all();
[20:46] <AlexDevilLX> Hi all
[20:47] <alex--> Is there any control panel I can use for my homeserver?
[20:47] <MrUnagi> how do i open port 143
[20:48] <naptastic> I'm having a really hard time getting a good Ubuntu CD / drive combination for installation... I'm wondering if there's a way to copy the live image onto the hard drive and boot it from there, and install onto the other drive?
[20:48] <MrUnagi> !firewall
[20:49] <naptastic> Maybe could I just dd if=/the image of=/dev/emptypartition and then chainload it from grub?
[20:50] <barf> How do I do this: http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/wiki/index.php/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ap01_:_Miscellaneous_Linux_Topics#Configuration_Steps_2
[20:50] <barf> the inittab part in ubuntu?
[20:51] <alex--> MrUnagi: depends on which firewall
[20:51] <MrUnagi> whatever the default is
[20:51] <MrUnagi> i guess ufw
[20:51] <alex--> can also be the firewall of your router
[20:51] <MrUnagi> im checking via localhost
[20:52] <MrUnagi> i still can't get 143 open
[20:53] <RiRa> how safe can you mix ubuntu 10.04 with ubuntu 11.04 the first test seems to work fine. why. its the only way to get gnome 2.32.1 back.
[20:54] <BluesKaj> coz_, nicofs , the info I've been reading so far indicates that the medibuntu repos ffmpeg has the latest x264 encode/decode caability ...is this relavent ?
[20:54] <coz_> BluesKaj,  excellent:)
[20:55] <coz_> BluesKaj,  I think that will help I think he is going to compile ffmpeg inlcuding the current codecs etc  so we will see
[20:55] <willluongo> Hello, hopefully this is an easy and somewhat foolish question, but I am running Ubuntu Server 10.04 and I installed Gnome for vnc purposes. However, the problem is that I have tried multiple things to change the run level so that gnome only starts manually. update-rc.d, rcconf, and chkconfig seem to be failing me. Is it not GDM I need to disable anymore? And if there is something else I need to do, is there a document or oth
[20:56] <BluesKaj> git can be a pita sometimes tho , coz_ ..i'm not surprised he had errors
[20:57] <coz_> BluesKaj,  agreed,, although for some reason my install the problems he had were not occuring ,, but I guess that is not unusual
[20:57] <dr_willis> willluongo:  you rename/disable gdm via the /etc/init/gdm.conf file
[20:57] <kjeldor> hello, I am trying to do this: http://www.wikihow.com/Access-Windows-Files-in-Ubuntu
[20:57] <dr_willis> willluongo:  the old sysv methods have been replaced by upstart. Also you an use the 'text' grub option to make sure gdm never starts
[20:57] <kjeldor> but im stuck at #6
[20:58] <kjeldor> i cant unmount the device
[20:58] <BluesKaj> no coz_ with git compiles ..in my experience , it's 50-50 ..but suppose it's worth a try
[20:58] <kjeldor> it says it is mounted by /host. any ideas?
[20:59] <willluongo> dr_willis: deleting the init/gdm.conf file did the trick
[20:59] <MrUnagi> sudo ufw allow 143 doesn't open 143 am i missing something
[20:59] <willluongo> Thank you very much dr_willis!
[20:59] <kjeldor> can anybody help me to unmount my sda2 ?
[21:00] <kjeldor> it says it is mounted at /host thats why i cant unmount it
[21:00] <kjeldor> any ideas how i can unmount this?
[21:01] <kjeldor> i am stuck at #6 of http://www.wikihow.com/Access-Windows-Files-in-Ubuntu because it is already mounted
[21:02] <willluongo> kjeldor: did you already try an lsof? are you in that directory?
[21:02] <bonefish> can dpkg find, download, and install a library file automatically if i know the library name i need?
[21:02] <willluongo> bonefish: I think you would usually use apt-get or aptitude or some other package manager for that
[21:02] <kjeldor> willluongo: nope, how?
[21:03] <willluongo> kjeldor: lsof | grep $NAMEOFFOLDER
[21:03] <willluongo> replacing $NAMEOFFOLDER with the actual folder name
[21:03] <toumbo> Hi!PoepleIs anyone available to tell my story conserning installation/uninstallation of Nvidia driver so he can hepl me with my problem?I think to do this to not spam the channel
[21:03] <willluongo> that will tell you what is using it?
[21:03] <bonefish> well the situation is, ive installed wireshark, but when trying to run it i get the "error loading shared libraries: libsutil.so.0, so such file/directory"
[21:03] <willluongo> oops, not a question
[21:03] <bonefish> ive tried downloading it through apt-get
[21:03] <willluongo> what did you try in apt? bonefish
[21:03] <MrUnagi> !ports
[21:04] <bonefish> but apt-get doesn't find it
[21:04] <kjeldor> lsof | grep $windrv ?
[21:04] <willluongo> kjeldor: no
[21:04] <willluongo> whereever you have it mounted
[21:04] <kjeldor>  /host
[21:05] <willluongo> grep for /host then
[21:05] <kjeldor>  /host is its mount point
[21:06] <bonefish> willluango: yes ive tried it in apt-get, but can't find it there
[21:06] <kjeldor> ok done..
[21:06] <kjeldor> now ill do step 6?
[21:06] <willluongo> kjeldor: did it show anything?
[21:06] <kjeldor> nothing
[21:07] <willluongo> bonefish: do you have that library on your system? maybe it is just in the wrong directory
[21:07] <kjeldor> kjeldor@ubuntu:~$ lsof | grep $/host
[21:07] <kjeldor> kjeldor@ubuntu:~$ lsof | grep /host
[21:07] <kjeldor> i did both actually, nothing showed
[21:07] <bonefish> willluongo: not sure, how do i check?
[21:08] <willluongo> sudo updatedb and then locate
[21:08] <willluongo> locate libsutil.so.0
[21:08] <bonefish> k
[21:08] <hypodermia> you know, i've noticed that unity automatically maximizes any new window that's close to filling the screen (but not quite). it's an annoying behavior i'd like to prevent. anybody know how?
[21:08] <kjeldor> tried to unmount it again using gparted, still didnt work
[21:09] <willluongo> Did you mount it?
[21:09] <kjeldor> no need to unmount?
[21:09] <kjeldor> ill do step 6 now?
[21:09] <willluongo> kjeldor: did you mount it yourself?
[21:09] <bonefish> willuongo: okay ran the locate command, no response from the line
[21:09] <willluongo> bonefish: did you updatedb first?
[21:09] <kjeldor> ah nope, i was mounted automatically
[21:09] <bonefish> yep
[21:10] <kjeldor> it*
[21:10] <willluongo> bonefish: yeah so you don't have it
[21:11] <willluongo> bonefish: did you install wireshark with apt?
[21:11] <bonefish> yep
[21:11] <dr_willis> hypodermia:  i dont notice that here.. but i am testing the next release i just rembered... :)
[21:11] <bonefish> ive tried removing and reinstalling
[21:11] <bonefish> but same prob
[21:11] <dr_willis> hypodermia:  most likely its controlled by a compiz plugin.
[21:11] <bonefish> and doing apt-get check doesn't find it missing any dependcies
[21:11] <kjeldor> willluongo: I was following the instructions on the website how to view windows files on ubuntu. and lead me to that, got stuck on some parts... so went here to ask for help
[21:12] <hypodermia> dr_willis: oh i'm sure. this bug is related: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/769781
[21:12] <MrUnagi> i am unable to telnet to 143 with connection refused, any way to troubleshoot this?
[21:12] <willluongo> kjeldor: if you run the command mount, what does it show?
[21:12] <debd> where does xstarfish save the files??
[21:12] <bonefish> mrunagi: it means it didn't like your aunthentication
[21:12] <MrUnagi> there was no authentication
[21:12] <dr_willis> !info xstarfish
[21:13] <dr_willis> debd:  check its man pages yet?
[21:13] <MrUnagi> authentication happens after conenction
[21:13] <debd> dr_willis: yeah
[21:13] <debd> dr_willis:  no info up there
[21:13] <tp43_> my screen on my laptop goes blank, and now even when I reboot, the screen stays blank.  It is dual boot and windows is working fine
[21:13] <kjeldor> * zilla<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has joined
[21:13] <bonefish> mrunagi: try going to port 23 not 123
[21:14] <debd> dr_willis:  not in ~ or ~/pitures either
[21:14] <dr_willis> debd:  xstarfish --help says ---> -o,--outfile:  Specify an output file.
[21:15] <kjeldor> willluongo: Mount is denied because the NTFS volume is already exclusively opened. The volume may be already mounted, or another software may use it which could be indentified for example by the help of the "fuser" command
[21:15] <willluongo> kjeldor: please run the command 'mount' without any options or flag
[21:16] <kjeldor> this is what i typed: kjeldor@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda2 /mnt/windrv -o "umask=022"
[21:16] <willluongo> kjeldor: please type mount
[21:16] <willluongo> by itself
[21:16] <kjeldor> done
[21:16] <micks_> hey! can someone tell me how to search for _all_ files of a particular type (in a directory) within nautilus?
[21:16] <debd> dr_willis:  thanks! the info isnt present in the man xstarfish though... :o
[21:16] <micks_> i.e. all videos in /home/micks
[21:16] <willluongo> kjeldor: what did it say?
[21:16] <tp43_> Anyone know how to fix it?
[21:16] <kjeldor> very long... shall I paste here?
[21:16] <bonefish> micks: use *."filetype"
[21:17] <dr_willis> debd:  odd.. its got the same info here.. im on the 11.10 release however.
[21:17] <willluongo> use pastebin kjeldor
[21:17] <bonefish> the * is a wildcard for all files with the ".filetype"
[21:17] <micks_> bonefish: as in mime types
[21:17] <kjeldor> how to use pastebin?
[21:17] <kjeldor> forgot already many years ago since last used
[21:17] <willluongo> !paste
[21:17] <cypha> how difficult would it be to turn a ubuntu server into normal ubuntu?
[21:17] <micks_> *.movs, *.avis, etc
[21:18] <bonefish> exactlyh
[21:18] <dr_willis> cypha:  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop          go get coffee... done...
[21:18] <tp43_> Cypha same thing
[21:18] <tp43_> cypha, all you gotta do is type "sudo apt-get install gnome"
[21:18] <cypha> dr_willis, can I choose whether to start X or not?
[21:18] <dr_willis> cypha:  this is linux.. of course you can. :)
[21:18] <cypha> so sometimes I can use it as a server, and sometimes as a full desktop
[21:18] <dr_willis> disable the gdm service, or use the 'text' grub option.
[21:19] <bonefish> willuongo: so how do i go about downloading/installing the library i need since its not on my machine
[21:19] <kjeldor> willluongo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/651406/
[21:19] <tp43_> My Ubuntu doesn't even start anymore, I was typing, and the screen went blank, then reboot, and again went blank, and now won't even start up
[21:19] <dr_willis> cypha:  theres really no differance in using it as a 'server' or desktop'.  its just running X when you are using the desktop.
[21:19] <micks_> might it be possible that you actually cant do this in nautilus?
[21:19] <willluongo> bonefish: I am sorry, I don't actually know, it doesn't come up show up in any package search I found
[21:19] <bonefish> hmm okay
[21:19] <dr_willis> cypha:  unless you want to get into the fancier server kernels and other server-specific stuff.
[21:20] <cypha> dr_willis, "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" or "sudo aptitude install gnome"?
[21:20] <ole> test
[21:20] <bonefish> the 1st5
[21:20] <dr_willis> cypha:  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop         is wha ti use.
[21:20] <willluongo> kjeldor: what is in the /host directory when you do an ls?
[21:20] <bonefish> gnome is just your gui
[21:20] <micks_> because the ctrl-f always needs atleast one character to perform a search, although restricted to one filetype
[21:20] <cypha> dr_willis, well, I'm currently using it as a server, ssh'ing in via putty
[21:21] <dr_willis> cypha:  that really dosent mean a lot from a 'server' point of view. :) you are just running the ssh service..
[21:21] <cypha> and I putty in because cut and paste sucks in the console
[21:21] <kjeldor> willluongo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/651408/
[21:21] <dr_willis> cypha:  using it as a 'server'  means you are not running X? :) thats a bit of a  odd definition of a server..
[21:21] <cypha> so, instead of all that, I figure I can just use X when I want
[21:22] <willluongo> kjeldor: you already have access to the files
[21:22] <dr_willis> cypha:  install gpm for the console, and you get mouse ussage/cut/pasteing
[21:22] <cypha> dr_willis, well, Ubuntu-Server comes without X
[21:22] <cypha> dr_willis, I have gpm
[21:22] <cypha> but vbox guest additions isn't compatible with that
[21:22] <kjeldor> willluongo: how can i access it "graphically"?
[21:22] <cypha> (that = gpm)
[21:22] <dr_willis> cypha:  you can also ssh in, and have xming on the windows box. and run X apps that appear on the windows box. - a handy trick
[21:22] <willluongo> kjeldor: open places and navigate to /host
[21:22] <tp43_> I got a serious issue, my screen stays blank, I can't boot
[21:22] <cypha> oooh, that sounds cool
[21:22] <kjeldor> willluongo: thanks!
[21:22] <cypha> got any instructions on how to do that?
[21:22] <willluongo> kjeldor: you are welcome
[21:23] <tp43_> And I can't get a text console either
[21:23] <edbian_> tp43_: If you press shift during boot do you get a grub menu?
[21:23] <dr_willis> cypha:  ive even seen some ubuntu variants that install in windows and auto-set that up. but i cant recall their names. and they are not officially supported here.
[21:23] <tp43_> edbian_, well, I get grub without shift, cause I can boot windows, but ubuntu doesn't boot
[21:23] <dr_willis> cypha:  install xming on windows.. ssh in, or use the xming wizard..  be sure X forwarding is enabled.. run X app...
[21:23] <edbian_> tp43_: have you tried adding nomodeset
[21:23] <edbian_> ?
[21:24] <FrozenFire> I'm working on setting up a Ubuntu Server system as my home router, but I'm having some major issues with basic network configuration. First and foremost, I cannot seem to get my modem-facing NIC to lease an IP from DHCP. I have it configured auto eth1; iface eth1 inet dhcp
[21:24] <tp43_> edbian_, never heard of it, how do I do that?
[21:24] <edbian_> tp43_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132  this explains it in detail.
[21:24] <FrozenFire> When I bring it down and then back up, it sits for a while, probably trying to grab and IP, but then it fails to do so
[21:24] <edbian_> tp43_: You wanna do 'hHow to temporarily set kernel boot options on an installed OS (not wubi)'
[21:24] <cypha> dr_willis, cool, I'll look into that
[21:24] <edbian_> tp43_: What questions do you have?
[21:24] <tp43_> edbian_, it used to work, for over a year, it a recent thing
[21:24] <cypha> dr_willis, are you a system admin in real life?
[21:25] <edbian_> tp43_: sure, add nomodeset
[21:25] <dr_willis> cypha:  nope.
[21:25] <edbian_> tp43_: also, that is not a question
[21:25] <cypha> developer?
[21:25] <anli_> When I use ./configure for gtk+-2.22.0, I get a message about GdkPixbuf being of version 2.18.0, but in synaptic, I can see its 2.22.0
[21:25] <edbian_> dr_willis: sure you are!    Unheard of.
[21:25] <cypha> u always have the answer when I get in here
[21:26] <edbian_> dr_willis is good...
[21:26] <dr_willis> cypha:  im also ircing half the time from work.... :)
[21:26] <cypha> yeah
[21:26] <tp43_> edbian_, thanks
[21:26] <edbian_> tp43_: did it fix the problem?
[21:26] <cypha> dr_willis, how does your phone not die with irc running?
[21:26] <MrUnagi> are there multiple firewalls in ubuntu or something
[21:26] <kjeldor> willluongo: can you help me to navigate to "places" and then /host .... im lost with this new look and feel of ubuntu
[21:26] <edbian_> MrUnagi: iptables is the only one.
[21:26] <dr_willis> cypha:  power charger. :)
[21:26] <tp43_> edbian_, not yet, gonna try, I am sure it will
[21:26] <dr_willis> MrUnagi:  theres no firewalls installed by default.
[21:26] <willluongo> sure
[21:26] <MrUnagi> !firewall
[21:26] <cypha> aah
[21:26] <edbian_> tp43_: Ha, don't be too sure!
[21:27] <dr_willis> MrUnagi:  well theres no enabled RULES for the firewall by default.. is more correct.
[21:27] <willluongo> kjeldor: places >> computer >> file system >> host
[21:27] <tp43_> edbian_, well, I never knew about pressing 'e' so that was a nice tidbit already
[21:27] <edbian_> dr_willis: are iptables and ufw different firewalls?
[21:27] <edbian_> tp43_: :)
[21:27] <MrUnagi> no matter what i do, i cannot get 143 opened
[21:27] <dr_willis> ufw = a front end to iptables which controlls the standard firewalling freatures of the kernel
[21:27] <edbian_> dr_willis: thanks
[21:27] <TrentH> How do i install java?
[21:28] <zykotick9> !java | TrentH
[21:28] <MrUnagi> so then there iptables controlled by ufw controlled by gufw?
[21:28] <MrUnagi> that seems convoluted
[21:28] <kjeldor> willluongo: found it!
[21:28] <kjeldor> willluongo: thanks again
[21:28] <willluongo> kjeldor: Congrats! and you are welcome :)
[21:28] <edbian_> MrUnagi: Just don't use ufw and gufw and it isn't convoluted
[21:28] <MrUnagi> iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -s 0/0 --sport 1024:65535 -d <IP_ADDRESS> --dport 143 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT……….still no 143 open
[21:28] <MrUnagi> what am i missing here
[21:29] <anli_> Can I use aptitude to do a dist upgrade?
[21:29] <TrentH> How do I enable the repostiorys?
[21:29] <edbian_> TrentH: 11.04 ?
[21:29] <MrUnagi> !repo
[21:29] <TrentH> I got them enabled nvm
[21:29] <edbian_> TrentH: yay
[21:29] <TrentH> I just typ'd in sun-java6 and nothing shows up in synaptic
[21:29] <zykotick9> anli_, do you know what a dist-upgrade is?  It won't bring you to the next version of Ubuntu if that's what you want.
[21:29] <MrUnagi> edbian_: dr_willis iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -s 0/0 --sport 1024:65535 -d <IP_ADDRESS> --dport 143 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT still doesn't open 143 am i missing something
[21:30] <dr_willis> TrentH:  its in the partners repoiostory
[21:30] <zykotick9> TrentH, "sudo apt-get update" after adding the repository.
[21:30] <TrentH> what is the name of the repostiroy?
[21:30] <tp43_> edbian_, nope, nomodeset didn't help, same blank screen for ages
[21:30] <dr_willis> MrUnagi:  means little to me. i rarely use firewall rules. my router handles it..  if you flush all the rules, there shouldent be any thing on the linux side blocking the ports.
[21:30] <zykotick9> TrentH, Partner
[21:30] <anli_> zykotick9: oh, how do I do that then?
[21:30] <TrentH> How do I add it?
[21:30] <edbian_> tp43_: can you boot recovery mode?
[21:30] <zykotick9> !partner | TrentH
[21:31] <tp43_> edbian_, duh, I shouldn't tried that one already, 2mins
[21:31] <dr_willis> MrUnagi:  you trying to use port 145 over the internet? or a local lan? whats port 145 anyway, i forget..
[21:31] <edbian_> tp43_: Try removing splash and quiet with nomodeset there
[21:31] <zykotick9> !upgrade | anli_
[21:31] <edbian_> tp43_: sure :)
[21:31] <MrUnagi> 143
[21:31] <MrUnagi> imap
[21:31] <dr_willis> whats imap for? dosent sound familer.
[21:31] <MrUnagi> mail
[21:31] <TrentH> Alright I enabled it :)
[21:31] <edbian_> dr_willis: 0.o
[21:32] <dr_willis> i'll mail my pc thats in the  basement. :)
[21:32] <zykotick9> TrentH, then "sudo apt-get update" then have a look in Synaptic/U.S.C. for java
[21:32] <cypha> how many more gigs is ubuntu desktop than ubuntu server?
[21:32] <dr_willis> cypha:  full desktop install i think is about 4gb.
[21:32] <zykotick9> dr_willis, IMAP is really handy in compared to POP as it leaves the mails on the server (yes POP can be configured that way too)
[21:32] <TrentH> !java
[21:32] <anli_> zykotick9: the disadvantage of using update-manager is that my update-manager is fubared
[21:32] <cypha> damn
[21:33] <zykotick9> anli_, there is a cli way to upgrade.  Does anyone know?
[21:33] <MrUnagi> even flushing iptables i can't freaking telnet to 143
[21:33] <dr_willis> zykotick9:  scary thing is.. i do most all my email via my android phone these days.
[21:33] <MrUnagi> !143
[21:33] <MrUnagi> !imap
[21:33] <TrentH> Alright, so I install the browser plugin how do I install the thing that'll let me play the minecrafts
[21:33] <tp43_> edbian_, same thing with recovery mode boot, I will next try and remove splash and quiet with nomodeset there
[21:33] <MrUnagi> !mailserver
[21:33] <anli_> hm, do-release-upgrade
[21:33] <zykotick9> anli_, that sounds right
[21:33] <anli_> can be promising
[21:33] <edbian_> zykotick9: anli_ sudo do-release-upgrade
[21:34] <anli_> cool
[21:34] <zykotick9> edbian_, thanks
[21:34] <dr_willis> how does that differ from 'update-manager -d'  ? oh one is a gui? ;0
[21:34] <edbian_> tp43_: ok.  I am excited
[21:34] <anli_> I wish this is a good way of un-fubaring my system
[21:34] <farresito> does anybody know which script runs paste.ubuntu.com?
[21:34] <tp43_> edbian_, hehe
[21:34] <edbian_> farresito: that is a website
[21:34] <zykotick9> anli_, if your system is not working now - it's even less likely if you try to upgrade.  Just sayin'.
[21:34] <dr_willis> farresito:  huh?  you mean what command? 'pastebinit' ?
[21:34] <tp43_> edbian_, looks like same thing, I'll another minute though
[21:35] <anli_> when do-release-upgrade comes to "Calculating the changes" my hd starts to sound like a helicopter
[21:35] <anli_> Wonder if thats healthy
[21:35] <dr_willis> anli_:  its a of calculating!
[21:35] <farresito> I mean which software. if there is an opensource relase to make my own
[21:35] <zykotick9> anli_, do you hear "clicking"?
[21:35] <anli_> No click of death, I think
[21:36] <anli_> Just some hard work
[21:36] <dr_willis> anli_:  check dmesg command output. :)
[21:36] <anli_> dr_willis: What to seek for?
[21:36] <dr_willis> anli_:  if the hd is having failings. it will show there..
[21:36] <edbian_> tp43_: Mmmm, has nomodeset and that's it?
[21:36] <zykotick9> anli_, I/O errors would be not to good ;)
[21:36] <anli_> But I dont think its failing, shall see
[21:36] <dr_willis> hopefully its not having that sort of errors...
[21:36] <tp43_> edbian_, yeah, has ro nomodeset only
[21:37] <edbian_> tp43_: mmmm, what graphics card do you have?
[21:37] <farresito> dr_willis:I mean which software. if there is an opensource relase to make my own
[21:37] <TrentH> What do I install so I can run minecraft?
[21:37] <tp43_> edbian_, not sure, it is thinkpad 43
[21:37] <zykotick9> tp43_, "lspci | grep -i vga"
[21:37] <dr_willis> farresito:  no idea - theres proberly open sourced pastebin type code out there.
[21:37] <edbian_> 11.04 ?
[21:37] <anli_> A, chopper mode finished, calculations done
[21:37] <edbian_> zykotick9: black screen on boot
[21:37] <FrozenFire> I'm working on setting up a Ubuntu Server system as my home router, but I'm having some major issues with basic network configuration. First and foremost, I cannot seem to get my modem-facing NIC to lease an IP from DHCP. I have it configured auto eth1; iface eth1 inet dhcp
[21:37] <tp43_> zykotick9, can't boot
[21:37] <FrozenFire> When I bring it down and then back up, it sits for a while, probably trying to grab and IP, but then it fails to do so
[21:37] <dr_willis> TrentH:  you mean other then the sun java packages?
[21:37] <zykotick9> edbian_, tp43_ oh sorry.
[21:37] <FrozenFire> Any ideas?
[21:37] <dr_willis> !java
[21:37] <edbian_> zykotick9: no worries
[21:38] <spetrea> hey there
[21:38] <edbian_> tp43_: While booting, does the num lock key still work?  I am trying to determine if hte system is frozen.
[21:38] <farresito> dr_willis: yeah, i know, but ubuntu's one is very clear. thanks, gonna see if i find a simple one
[21:38] <alex--> !webmin | Alex--
[21:38] <dr_willis> TrentH:  sun-java6-*  packages in the !partner repository  - for sun java. as for the game itself.. get it from its homepage i guess.
[21:38] <spetrea> I need a Perl job, tried jobs.perl.org so far but no luck
[21:38] <spetrea> anyone here got a job opening at their companies or something ?
[21:38] <tp43_> edbian_, not sue
[21:39] <tp43_> edbian_, not sure
[21:39] <edbian_> tp43_: not sure?  press it, does the light change?
[21:39] <ole> t
[21:39] <tp43_> edbian_, well, I am in grub right now, I don't see any lights when I hit num lock, but it is a laptop
[21:39] <jsiegle> Hi everyone, I just made the mistake of upgrading to 11.04, now my system boots directly to a tty, sometimes complaining that open /dev/null failed, and other times crashing for no apparent reason. Has anyone else encountered this and/or know of a way to fix it?
[21:40] <edbian_> tp43_: You don't have a numlock light.  Awesome.
[21:40] <edbian_> tp43_: Try booting with this kernel option only:  gfxpayload=text
[21:40] <anli_> jsiegle: Ah, I am coming to that point soon then :)
[21:41] <TrentH> dr_willis, thank you :)
[21:41] <jsiegle> tried the gfxpayload=text, but it didn't help
[21:41] <edbian_> tp43_: are you jsiegle ?
[21:41] <tp43_> edbian_, no, he is mistaken
[21:41] <samem> hey guys, i have win7 installed aswell with ubuntu but without the grub running with raid drives, how can i get grub working again?
[21:42] <edbian_> tp43_: Did you try gfxpayload=text  ?
[21:42] <anli_> oh, no, now I will get the distro which removed zooming in using winkey+mousewheel
[21:42] <tp43_> edbian_, yep, its going
[21:42] <edbian_> tp43_: it worked?
[21:42] <tp43_> edbian_, no I just entered it, and waiting now
[21:42] <edbian_> tp43_: The screen is black?
[21:42] <tp43_> edbian_, yeah
[21:42] <edbian_> tp43_: do you have caps lock light?  Does that key work?
[21:42] <anli_> Wonder if not 11.04 is the linux words counterpart of vista
[21:42] <edbian_> tp43_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/BlankScreen  I'm reading this
[21:42] <anli_> worlds
[21:43] <tp43_> edbian_, caps works
[21:43] <edbian_> tp43_: Good, the system isn't frozen.
[21:43] <edbian_> tp43_: Try this option: vesafb.nonsense=1
[21:43] <wildbat> !grub > samem
[21:44] <tp43_> edbian_, ok, lets see if that does it
[21:45] <edbian_> tp43_: sure
[21:45] <tp43_> edbian_, I guess its these upgrades, cause I used to be able to play dvd's when I first installed, but that doesn't work anymore
[21:46] <edbian_> tp43_: One thing at a time :)
[21:46] <eudaimon> hello, i'm trying to connect to windows 7 with vpn but it doesn't work for some reason. could someone take a look? http://pastebin.com/HLiRhiK2
[21:46] <TrentH> Whenever I go to run Minecraft.jar it's telling me, exception in thread "main"
[21:46] <eudaimon> please :)
[21:46] <tp43_> edbian_, no that isn't working either
[21:47] <tp43_> I'm thinking I just do a reinstall
[21:47] <tp43_> edbian: Can can I disable X from the shell in grub
[21:47] <j3roth> Question:Is there a way to see what command is run when you connect to a server like for Example: Places->Connect to Server->SSH Connection??
[21:48] <edbian_> tp43_: Do you see anything else there that I missed?
[21:49] <tp43_> edbian_, no, at this point I would like to purge all X and gnome and reinstall it
[21:49] <M4d3L> hi., is there anyway to see if a process is in a dead lock?
[21:49] <dr_willis> TrentH:  check their docs.. i belive theres a specific set of options needed to run it.
[21:49] <tp43_> edbian_, I can get a shell from grub, but not sure Iif I can apt-get
[21:49] <edbian_> tp43_: you can't
[21:49] <edbian_> tp43_: That re-installing likely won't fix it.
[21:50] <tp43_> edbian_, can I disable X and boot the a shell
[21:50] <TrentH> I'm actually playing a game on ubuntu :D
[21:50] <edbian_> tp43_: That's what recovery mode does.  You're not getting to X at all.  Read the tutorial I posted.
[21:50] <eudaimon> please, can someone help me? :)
[21:50] <tp43_> edbian_, oh yeah, its worse than that
[21:51] <edbian_> tp43_: yep
[21:51] <tp43_> edbian_, I need a whole new install
[21:51] <anli_> Who doesnt
[21:51] <tp43_> edbian_, but I have like three kernels, I tried two, both of them didn't work
[21:51] <edbian_> tp43_: The older ones have a better chance of working
[21:51] <tp43_> edbian_, well, thanks for trying, very kind of you.  I will do a re-install
[21:51] <edbian_> tp43_: I'm not sure that will fix the issue.  If you want to though.
[21:52] <tp43_> edbian_, I am sure a re-install will work
[21:52] <tp43_> edbian_, of course a re-install will work.  It used to work
[21:52] <wittyME> is there a documented way to enable full disk encryption on a running system post installation? or a tested method of backup and restore after reinstalling with encryption to get to the exact same state of the system?
[21:52] <edbian_> tp43_: alright!  But when you update it will probably come back
[21:53] <tp43_> edbian_, yeah, I gotta figure out what update is breaking it, I just won't update then
[21:53] <edbian_> tp43_: that's one way I guess...
[21:53] <tp43_> edbian_, I might just put debian instead, cause I never travel with this laptop anymore so I don't really need sleep or hibernate anymore
[21:54] <edbian_> !!! I love Debian! :D
[21:54] <edbian_> tp43_: use that
[21:54] <edbian_> ubottu: quiet you.
[21:54] <nit-wit> lol
[21:54] <tp43_> edbian_, Any new developments, should I get a new CD, lets see
[21:54] <edbian_> tp43_: We're on 6 now
[21:55] <tp43_> I am on debian right now, how do I know if I have 5 or 6.  When did six come out.  I am sure I have 5 though, unless it upgraded itself
[21:55] <eudaimon> hello
[21:56] <eudaimon> is there someone who knows to debug a vpn connection
[21:56] <xc1024> check the vpn server logs
[21:57] <dr_willis> !vpn
[22:00] <nomad_man> quick question, will 32bit version of ubuntu work with 8 gigs of ram?  and will it be able to address all 8gigs?
[22:01] <wildbat> nomad_man: yes and no ~ 3gig only ~ go for 64bit
[22:02] <nomad_man> really?
[22:02] <wittyME> nomad_man: afik 32bit doesn't provide enough addresspace for 8GB of RAM
[22:02] <nomad_man> wildbat:  how is hte box adressing the current 4 gigs than?
[22:02] <MustardCU> wildbat, nomad_man, it's 4 GB
[22:02] <nomad_man> 2^32 i  guess
[22:02] <TrentH> Welp anybody know what to do when minecraft crashes on you?
[22:03] <iceroot> nomad_man: the pae-version can adress 4gb and more
[22:03] <nomad_man> iceroot: so 8 gig will be no issue?  where can i read about it, and how is it implemented?
[22:04] <iceroot> nomad_man: pae can handle 8gb but pae is bad, so use amd64
[22:04] <wildbat> nomad_man, MustardCU, AFAIK it is depending on motherboard. i have a ASUS that give me 3.15 out of 6.
[22:04] <iceroot> nomad_man: http://blog.linuxolution.org/archives/117
[22:04] <iceroot> wildbat: its depending on your vga + ram, has nothing to do with the mainboard
[22:04] <zykotick9> nomad_man, PAE is a "hack" using try 64bit would be better for some applications.  PAE cannot allow any one application from exceeding the 3.2 GB memory limit.
[22:05] <iceroot> zykotick9: 1.8gb per process if i am correct
[22:05] <zykotick9> iceroot, thanks, didn't know it was that low.
[22:06] <nomad_man> aha!
[22:06] <theshadowx> hiya
[22:06] <iceroot> nomad_man: just use amd64
[22:06] <nomad_man> i think you guys might have solved an issue that we had for a while  on our gaming server!
[22:06] <wildbat> iceroot: but gigabyte give a bit more then ASUS on same vga card?
[22:06] <nomad_man> iceroot: wildbat zykotick9  thanks guys!
[22:06] <iceroot> wildbat: no
[22:06] <cypha> dr_willis, once I install ubuntu-desktop, how do I run it?
[22:06] <iceroot> wildbat: its vga + pci adressbus + ram
[22:06] <cypha> just type ubuntu-desktop?
[22:07] <MustardCU> nomad_man, i did help but i guess you didn't see mine.
[22:07] <WaltherFI> gdm start
[22:07] <nomad_man> master_of_master:  sorry
[22:07] <nomad_man> whops
[22:07] <zykotick9> cypha, ubuntu-desktop is just a meta package for installing gnome/unity type thing
[22:07] <nomad_man> MustardCU: you have to highliight my name otherwise there is a storng chance i'll miss it :)))
[22:07] <WaltherFI> cypha: sudo services gdm start
[22:07] <cypha> zykotick9, what's that mean?
[22:07] <nomad_man> MustardCU: oh, odd, you did :(
[22:07] <WaltherFI> gdm = gnome display manager
[22:08] <nomad_man> okay, here is a crazy question
[22:08] <dr_willis> cypha:  it starts gdm at boot time.. you login to x.
[22:08] <zykotick9> cypha, WaltherFI gave the correct command
[22:08] <nomad_man> i've got a 32bit LTS and i want to convert it to x64. any chance i can do that?
[22:08] <dr_willis> cypha:  its a meta-package - it installs the other needed pacakges for the full X desktop
[22:08] <nomad_man> wiithout doing full reinstall
[22:08] <cypha> ohh, gotcha
[22:08] <zykotick9> nomad_man, no - fresh install
[22:08] <nomad_man> :'(
[22:08] <dr_willis> cypha:  if you have gdm disabled. 'sudo service gdm start'
[22:08] <nomad_man> figured
[22:08] <MustardCU> nomad_man, whatever, you won't no me within the next hour
[22:08] <MustardCU> *know
[22:08] <nomad_man> MustardCU: lol :)
[22:08] <cypha> sudo: services: command not found
[22:09] <WaltherFI> service
[22:09] <dr_willis> service
[22:09] <dr_willis> time to learn the service command. :)
[22:09] <cypha> aah, that worked
[22:09] <kjeldor> I got a question, i tried to download a movie and it transmission bittorrent says my disk are full, can i make the partition of my ubuntu bigger than what I have now without erasing its contents?
[22:10] <zykotick9> cypha, WaltherFI (almost) gave the correct command ;)  I missed the typo too.
[22:10] <cypha> "It seems that you do not have the hardware required to run Unity. Please choose Ubuntu Classic at the login screen and you will be using the traditional environment."
[22:10] <nomad_man> iceroot: another quick quetsion  X3460 intel, is it still amd64?
[22:10] <MustardCU> kjeldor, yes but be careful erasing data on your other partitions.
[22:10] <iceroot> nomad_man: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[22:10] <zykotick9> cypha, what graphics card are you using?  Install drivers if possible.
[22:10] <dr_willis> cypha:  and your video chipset is?
[22:10] <iceroot> nomad_man: if there is "lm" then it is 64bit
[22:11] <kjeldor> MustardCU, can you guide me how?
[22:11] <iceroot> nomad_man: lm = large memory
[22:11] <cypha> hmm
[22:11] <nomad_man> iceroot: no, i know it's a x64, but i'm no longer familiar with modern architectures.   amd is the same as intel ?
[22:11] <iceroot> nomad_man: yes
[22:11] <nomad_man> iceroot: i guess amd is just throwing me off  :)
[22:12] <iceroot> nomad_man: amd64 is for 64bit cous from amd and intel
[22:12] <cypha> NVIDIA NVS 3100M
[22:12] <nomad_man> iceroot:  excellent
[22:12] <cypha> I logged in via X, but then during login is when I got that message above
[22:12] <w30> kjeldor, or else create another partition and mount as /movie-downloads or some such mount point of your choosing
[22:12] <dr_willis> cypha:  you ned to install the proper nvidia-drivers package.
[22:13] <kjeldor> How can I "re-install" ubuntu without losing all my data, I want to have Ubuntu most, if not all of my partition. I have windows installed by the way
[22:13] <dr_willis> cypha:  you an choose the classic desktop then run the 'addational-drivers' tool to let it install what it thinks it needs
[22:13] <cypha> dr_willis, besides that message, everything looks fine
[22:13] <cypha> dr_willis, how do I do that?
[22:14] <dr_willis> run the tool  from the menus, or from a terminal  i think the binary name is 'jockey-gtk'  or in the menus 'addational drivers'
[22:14] <MustardCU> kjeldor, Well I use gparted (which is the Gnome Partition Editor).  If you select your partition you should be able to change it's size.  The problem with this is that since it has to be on the same spot on the disk if it may overlap with another partition.  As I can see other people are helping you and I would suggest just making another partition  on an empty space to be safer.  I'm not the best at partitions though so other pe
[22:14] <MustardCU> ople may be able to provide with you with more information on the subject
[22:14] <cypha> dr_willis, nothing additional in additional drivers
[22:14] <kjeldor> w30, can i just delete my excisting ubuntu and then re-install with a bigger partition?
[22:15] <dr_willis> cypha:  its not showing any nvidia drivers needed or in use?
[22:15] <cypha> nope
[22:15] <xangua> kjeldor: next time use a separate partiton for Home ;)
[22:15] <kjeldor> uhhh this sucks
[22:15] <dr_willis> cypha:  not sure then. You could install the nvidia-current package i guess..
[22:15] <kjeldor> I want to keep both windows and ubuntu
[22:16] <w30> kjeldor, sure; its not windows but you will loose your original ubuntu, Is it highly configured yet?
[22:16] <MustardCU> kjeldor, copy your stuff from Ubuntu to Windows and reinstall and make the Ubuntu partition bigger then
[22:16] <kjeldor> not yet highly configured
[22:17] <kjeldor> i just installed ubuntu today
[22:17] <albech> i am having some issue where my host is randomly stop responding to network connectiontions. If I then ping out from that particular host it will become responsive again to network connections.
[22:17] <w30> kjeldor, that would be fairly quick then.
[22:17] <ciunix_> A question about a configuration of apache. I bought a domain name in a provider, now the domain point to the static ip of a my server: if I go to the site www.foo.com then I arrive to the apache of my server. If I go to www.foo.com/bar in the browser bar I see serverip/bar and now www.foo.com/bar.. I think I have to configure something in apache. is it correct?
[22:17] <kjeldor> how do I properly re-install?
[22:18] <cypha> dr_willis, no error after restart
[22:18] <cypha> maybe it was a fluke?
[22:18] <dr_willis> cypha:  could be.
[22:18] <ciunix_> could anybode give me an advice?
[22:19] <kjeldor> ok
[22:19] <albech> !ask
[22:19] <TrentH> ciunix_, always wear a rubber
[22:19] <kjeldor> IM willing to loose both windows and ubuntu
[22:19] <marek_> Will there ever be an Ubuntu kFreeBSD or Ubuntu HURD?
[22:19] <kjeldor> I want pure ubuntu only
[22:19] <w30> kjeldor, just get your partition the size you want it and then tell your install where your partition is and the install will wipe that partition and use it.
[22:19] <MustardCU> ciunix_, keep all of your stuff on one line so we know what your talking about
[22:19] <zykotick9> ciunix_, you might want to try in #httpd
[22:19] <mediawork> Hi ,  I am making a backup of my broken usb dongle
[22:19] <kjeldor> can i reinstall from ubuntu?
[22:20] <zykotick9> marek_, lol, try Debian
[22:20] <marek_> i AM a debian user
[22:20] <ciunix_> ok sorry
[22:20] <mediawork> Im using  dd if=/dev/sdb of=/home/hroi/daddsk bs=512
[22:20] <dr_willis> i think that on one line comment was for  kjeldor
[22:20] <zykotick9> marek_, why would Ubuntu want either of those kernels?  I see no benefit in a desktop environment.
[22:20] <mediawork> however Im not sure if  the block size of 512 bytes is correct...
[22:21] <StevenR> ok. I'm logged into my server using ssh -X ... but when I try to start firefox on it, with the output running on my laptop, I get a laptop copy of firefox. How do I make firefox run on the server, but appear on my laptop? I do this with other X11 apps, so why does firefox behave wrongly?
[22:21] <MustardCU> kjeldor, Did you just say you wanted to wipe Windows?  Then you shouldn't need to reinstall Ubuntu, right?
[22:21] <mediawork> does it matter if I get the block size correct?
[22:21] <dr_willis> kjeldor:  clarify what you are wanting to do and why.. i think it got lost in the extra lines...
[22:21] <w30> kjeldor, how did you install before? I would use a live ubuntu disc myself
[22:21] <dr_willis> mediawork:  bs is like a buffer space to use.. i use bs=2048 normally
[22:21] <mediawork> dr_willis:  so ,  I guess it really doesnt matter right?
[22:22] <dr_willis> mediawork:  it reads that much at a time.. writes it.. goes back and forth.. the lower a # the slower the copy can be.
[22:22] <dr_willis> mediawork:  you got it.
[22:22] <mediawork> dr_willis:  I still end up with an equivalent image of my drive
[22:22] <mediawork> dr_willis:  thanks.
[22:22] <dr_willis> mediawork:  you are imageint the whold drive.. you can also image partitions if you wanted to.
[22:22] <kjeldor> OK. This is my setup now, I was on windows7, and I installed Ubuntu side by side, but i only used a small portion. Now Im willing to delete windows, and do a fresh install of Ubuntu on my hard disk.. how can I do that now, running ubuntu
[22:22] <mediawork> dr_willis:  yes the whol 32 GB  of this usb drive
[22:23] <kjeldor> I used a USB Flash disk from windows to install ubuntu
[22:23] <StevenR> nevermind. The answer is -no-remote :)
[22:23] <dr_willis> mediawork:  often peole just image the /dev/sda1 or whatever. to move to a differnt partition, not to a differnt hard drive. :)
[22:23] <mediawork> dr_willis:  it has a broken boot sector I think... Im following a linuxjournal article to do this.
[22:23] <dr_willis> mediawork:  if it has read errors you may want to check out the ddrescue command also
[22:23] <mediawork> dr_willis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_sector
[22:23]  * quem is losing it
[22:24] <MustardCU> kjeldor, you should be able to delete the Windows partition and it's recovery partition from gparted.
[22:24] <mediawork> dr_willis:  cool I wanted to ask if you know any linux based partition table fixes
[22:24] <MustardCU> kjeldor, just be careful!
[22:24] <dr_willis> mediawork:  that wont 'fix' it but it will recover all the data it can
[22:24] <mediawork> dr_willis:  or something there of.. or file rescue from broken drives
[22:24] <mediawork> dr_willis: cool!
[22:24] <kjeldor> MustardCU, after deleting windows partition, can I set it to UBUNTU all the way?
[22:24] <mediawork> dr_willis:  it will have to look for ehm... pdf or doc or jpg like files right?
[22:25] <dr_willis> you will prober. want to dd from /dev/sda1 or whatver instead of sda if using ddrescue. because it will make  mounting the recovered image easier.
[22:25] <cypha> umm...I did sudo aptitude install chrome, thinking it was going to be chrome browser
[22:25] <cypha> and all it did was remove stuff
[22:25] <dr_willis> mediawork:  it recovers EVERYTHING.
[22:25] <dr_willis> mediawork:  or at least it tries...
[22:25] <dr_willis> !info chrome
[22:26] <pharos> chromium
[22:26] <mediawork> dr_willis:   ok ,, will it handle ntfs... actually Im kinda in a pickle I dont even know if I have ntfs or vfat
[22:26] <dr_willis> cypha:  i have to wonder what you installed via chrome.. :)
[22:26] <MustardCU> kjeldor, you should be able but they may be a MB or two on both sides of the partition that you can't include.  Shouldn't be a problem though.  I reconmend keeping Windows as a backup just encase something happens to Ubuntu though
[22:26] <zykotick9> kjeldor, did you say you installed Ubuntu from inside Windows?  If so, you CAN NOT delete Windows, without deleting Ubuntu in the process!  Wubi = fail IMO
[22:26] <dr_willis> mediawork:  it works at the block level i think.. so it should.
[22:26] <dsam44> dddd
[22:26] <bastidrazor> cypha: chromium-browser is the package. you would need to grab the deb for chrome or use the ppa
[22:26] <MustardCU> kjeldor, zyktoick9 is correct if that is what you did.
[22:26] <bastidrazor> pharos: chromium is a game.
[22:26] <mediawork> dr_willis:  ok ,   so on the block level. . there is really no difference between vfat, ntfs or ext3 rihgt?
[22:26] <kjeldor> yes
[22:27] <cypha> It ended up installing something called openchrome
[22:27] <nsaquatics> Good afternoon! Can somebody steer me in the right direction. I have a small store, one server (Ubuntu 10.04LTS) and 4+ Point of sale computers running windows (No choice, Quickbooks POS doesn't run in wine) Problem is after 2-3 months the windows machines start getting slower and slower, so I have to reinstall XP AGAIN. What I am looking for, is a way to virtualize the windows install and freeze the config, so that every time the session is closed, th
[22:27] <kjeldor> its ok
[22:27] <MustardCU> kjeldor, what?
[22:27] <kjeldor> I want to start fresh, so how do I do it?
[22:27] <dr_willis> mediawork:  i used it to recover a ntfs the other day i beliuve.. of 1.5TB :) ddrescue took over a week to read it all.. from usb. but it did recover 99% of the data
[22:27] <kjeldor> MustardCU fresh UBUNTU
[22:28] <nsaquatics> If I use a regular terminal session, I can only run the POS software on one session because it complains that it can only run once per machine.
[22:28] <dr_willis> kjeldor:  boot cd. reinstall. :)
[22:28] <zykotick9> dr_willis, i hope the data was worth it ;)
[22:28] <mediawork> dr_willis:  cool... I tried som windows based programs... they didnt do very well... even crashed
[22:28] <nit-wit> kjeldor, did you installl Ubuntu from a live windows enviroment?
[22:28] <dr_willis> zykotick9:  wifes videos... she just had to have.. of course after i recovered it.. the drive started working...
[22:28] <danilom> apache2: bad user name ${APACHE_RUN_USER}
[22:28] <danilom> any idea?
[22:28] <cypha> dr_willis, I think my internet is not working
[22:28] <cypha> how can I test it
[22:28] <cypha> ?
[22:28] <pharos> bastidrazor: Chromium is an open-source browser project
[22:28] <cypha> there is no browser
[22:28] <zykotick9> dr_willis, i believe Murphy has a law about that :)
[22:28] <jrib> danilom: that's because of the way ubuntu does the config file and should be ok to ignore
[22:29] <dr_willis> cypha:  theres dozens of browsers you can instgall..  ping google.com  if that works.. well.. internet is working.
[22:29] <cypha> oh ok, it's working
[22:29] <dr_willis> !info midori
[22:29] <danilom> jrib, what must i check to solve?
[22:30] <xangua> !info chromium | he was refering to the package name  pharos
[22:30] <alex--> !webmin | Alex--
[22:30] <dr_willis> alex--:  you keep reminding yourself of webmin? :)
[22:30] <pharos> ok !!
[22:30] <xangua> mmm no longer in natty¿ :S
[22:30] <dr_willis> alex--:  you can do a '/msg ubottu  factoid'
[22:30] <cypha> dr_willis, why does my synaptic package manager and my ubuntu login have two different passwords?
[22:30] <cypha> in fact, the synaptic package manager password is the original password I created when I made the ubuntu-server
[22:31] <dr_willis> cypha:  no idea. mine dont.. i just have the 1 user however...
[22:31] <cypha> but I have since changed it
[22:31] <photon> danilom: he just told you that you can ignore it.
[22:31] <chalsallbb> Hey all.  I hope I'm not breaking protocol here, but I'm wondering if anyone would like a Google+ invite.  If you would, PM me here or e-mail me at<EMAIL_ADDRESS> (This is not a scam; I'm not a spammer, and you can use "disposable" addresses if you want -- the invites are not bound to the initial e-mail address.)
[22:31] <danilom> photon, but doesnt show the index
[22:32] <xangua> !ot | chalsallbb not the place
[22:32] <nomad_man> is there a good alternative to webmin?
[22:32] <photon> danilom: I have no freaking idea what you mean. maybe you should consider a channel in your native language.
[22:32] <danilom> photon, when i try myservername in a browser send me to download a file...
[22:33] <danilom> photon apache dont show me the index, in my browser
[22:33] <chalsallbb> ubottu -- sorry...
[22:34] <nomad_man> is there a good alternative to webmin?  also, what is good way to monitor bandwidth consomed by an INDIVIDUAL application on the box?
[22:36] <Ubunoob> Can anyone help me? I need an application to burn a Windows ISO to a flash drive. My googling only resulted in how to create live-USB's which I know how to do.
[22:36] <thinkster> I am at a grub shell, can I copy files from my ubuntu to usb?
[22:37] <cypha> ok, here's another question. when ubuntu first starts, it has a dark title bar and taskbar (and both look very smooth in their coloring). After about 20 seconds, it becomes white/grey and looks less refined
[22:39] <delinquentme> suggestions as to a good keyboard shortcut to set to clear my terminal?
[22:40] <delinquentme> .... just looking for suggestions of key mappings that would overwrite something else .. and that are handy
[22:40] <thinkster> caps rarely used
[22:40] <cutiyar> after installing ubuntu still give me the isntallation box http://webchinupload.com/files/Screenshot_11.png ??
[22:40] <appletree> ubuntu rox

[22:40] <zykotick9> cutiyar, take the CD out
[22:40] <ciss> hi! on where can i configure the compression settings for vino-server on ubuntu natty?
[22:41] <cypha> anyone?
[22:41] <ciss> remote desktop is transmitting over 1mb even though screen updates only happen in a small area
[22:43] <w30> Ubunoob, you want to copy a windows iso file to a usb disk?
[22:44] <ciss> all i can find is the dumbed-down vino-preferences dialog
[22:44] <Ubunoob> w30 I want to make a bootable windows installer on a USB stick
[22:44] <zykotick9> Ubunoob, try ##windows - it's OT here
[22:44] <MrUnagi> : i can telnet to port 25 but my client cannot connect, any ideas
[22:45] <thinkster> I can't seem to get my laptop to boot cd
[22:45] <Ubunoob> I don't have access to a windows box, or I'd use an ISO burner.   That's called Wubi.  Sorry I can't help then.  Good luck.
[22:48] <nit-wit> thinkster, is f12 the boot choice key prompt on your computer
[22:48] <cutiyar> zykotick9, noo i installed entire ubuntu
[22:49] <zykotick9> cutiyar, you installed from inside windows though?
[22:49] <thinkster> nit-wit, yeah, I hit f12, and then two selections, 1. cd 2. hdd, I select cd but it doesn't boot it
[22:49] <cutiyar> zykotick9, i installed it on virtual box
[22:49] <nit-wit> thinkster, have you checked the md5sum
[22:49] <thinkster> Maybe my battery needs to be charged for a couple days first
[22:50] <zykotick9> cutiyar, remove the CD from VB's setting for the VM then (virtually remove the CD ;)
[22:50] <FrozenFire> Reading "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory#Recovering Your Data Manually", I'm having issues with recovering my data. I used whatever home directory encryption settings are default on install of 10.10, and these instructions are failing horrendously.
[22:50] <thinkster> nit-wit, I think it is my batter, cause I left it unplugged for a day, and the battery is already weak at only 45% capacity
[22:50] <nit-wit> thinkster, stranger things have hapened
[22:51] <cypha> dr_willis, installing ubuntu-desktop automatically installed the 64bit version, right?
[22:51] <thinkster> nit-wit, yeah, its messed up, the screen goes blank.  Lenova ruined IBM
[22:51] <cypha> since my ubuntu-server is 64bit
[22:51] <dr_willis> cypha:  if you are on 64bit.. yes.. thats how it works
[22:51] <cypha> k cool
[22:51] <nit-wit> thinkster, have you tried the f6-nomodeset option
[22:52] <thinkster> nit-wit, yeah, I thought it was an Ubuntu issue, and tried nomodeset, but then I booted into windows and same thing happened
[22:52] <nit-wit> hmm
[22:52] <thinkster> I wonder, can I access Ubuntu drive from WIndows?
[22:52] <nit-wit> thinkster, not easily a shred partition is generally usd
[22:52] <thinkster> nit-wit, cause Ubuntu is starting at all, but Windows lasts 5mins -enough time to copy a few images
[22:53] <nit-wit> *shared
[22:53] <thinkster> nit-wit, thats why I was trying to boot cd, cause then I copy a couple files
[22:53] <nit-wit> thinkster, download a puppy linux it should work
[22:53] <rhino> nit-wit: rhino here. Tried typing in the command line stuff on the W7 repair thing. Now won't boot at all - saying bootmgr not found. Currently typing this n an iPad :) surprised to find an irc client actually!
[22:54] <thinkster> nit-wit, I can't boot cd
[22:54] <cutiyar> zykotick9, i installed it from .iso
[22:54] <zykotick9> cutiyar, right and VBox treats that ISO like a cdrom, you need to "eject" it from VBox
[22:54] <thinkster> This laptop need to be charge up and then hopefully it will work again
[22:55] <thinkster> A battery replacement is gonna cost the price of new laptop I bet
[22:55] <nit-wit> rhino, if you have the boot flag on the C partition sda2 go to the command line again type bootrec.exe, and run the four commands two are the same I gave you
[22:55] <anyes> :)
[22:55] <cutiyar> zykotick9, how to eject it?
[22:55] <nit-wit> rhino, bootrec.exe  by it self is like running help in linux
[22:56] <rhino> Ok
[22:56] <solidpikmin> llo?
[22:56] <zykotick9> cutiyar, sorry, I don't remember.  Anyone, how to remove ISO from VB settings?
[22:56] <solidpikmin> hello?
[22:56] <nit-wit> rhino, the autorepiar is an option as well
[22:56] <rhino> Yeah tried auto repair.
[22:56] <solidpikmin> Hi, I got a Question?
[22:56] <nit-wit> rhino, if you run the autorepair do it 3 times
[22:57] <solidpikmin> How can I change the background on ICEWM?
[22:57] <nit-wit> rhino, the four commands I have saved do you want a pastebin
[22:58] <rhino> nit-wit: Run auto repair 3 times. Check. Thanks for your help, btw. Very much appreciated. Pastebin yes please
[22:58] <solidpikmin> anyone?
[22:59] <nit-wit> rhino, hold on
[22:59] <rhino> Ok
[22:59] <cutiyar>   Anyone, how to remove ISO from VB settings?
[23:00] <solidpikmin> @cutiyar
[23:00] <solidpikmin> @cutiyar umm nope
[23:00] <nit-wit> rhino, http://paste.ubuntu.com/651453/
[23:01] <IvanBliminse> Does anyone know of a good free AVI to DVD burner for linux? I'm having trouble with Brasero.
[23:01] <nit-wit> rhino, lust make sure your seeing the W7 in the repair search before you head for the command line
[23:01] <nit-wit> *lust=just
[23:01] <nit-wit> lol
[23:01] <cutiyar> solidpikmin, nope?
[23:01] <solidpikmin> nope
[23:02] <rhino> nit-wit: Thanks for that. Will do.
[23:02] <solidpikmin> I've tried to install VB but my laptop can't handle it xD need atleast 520 mb right?
[23:02] <cypha> In the first 15 seconds AFTER logging into ubuntu, it looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/pGYsK.png ||| and then after 15 seconds, it looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/i6CGM.png ||| WHY IS IT CHANGING?
[23:03] <bhook> Is it just me, or does UEC still not seem to be an "out of the box" solution?
[23:03] <nit-wit> rhino, I think your just about there, it feels wierd until you know exactly what to do. Once windows is booting grub will need to be pout back in the mbr, unless you want esybcd
[23:03] <thinkster> If I have two computers both connect on the public internet throught the same hub.  Is there a way to determine the ip of one of the computers from the other?
[23:04] <solidpikmin> @thinkster have you googled it?
[23:05] <bhook> Anyone had any success in running UEC 11.04? What am I missing?
[23:05] <rhino> nit-wit: Yeah no probs! I believe you :) normally not hopeless when to computers. But only ever toyed with Linux from time to time.
[23:05] <thinkster> solidpikmin, yeah, so many results
[23:06] <nit-wit> rhino, I try to error on the side of no hrm done, if I was not sure I wou;dn't help. ;)
[23:06] <solidpikmin> @thinkster D: sorry Q.Q I've been trying to change my desktop wallpaper but I can't seem to change it on ICEWM
[23:06] <solidpikmin> googled and stuff still can't get it
[23:06] <nhck> Hi, when I do sudo apt-get install testdisk in oneirc it says E: Unable to locate package testdisk - what do I do?
[23:07] <rhino> nit-wit: Yeah it's all good. Not my main machine, just my laptop.
[23:07] <thinkster> solidpikmin, I am wondering why you are running ice?
[23:07] <nit-wit> nhck, open the universe repo
[23:08] <nit-wit> Is testdisk in the repo's
[23:08] <kirbygibner> can anyone help me with acer a500 tablet
[23:08] <thinkster> solidpikmin, I think if you are interested in wallpapers you would also be interested in gnome, kde, xfce, lxde
[23:08] <bhook> what would be the best channel to talk about UEC?
[23:08] <solidpikmin> @Thinkster Well, I got this laptop from an uncle its old ans stuff so I formated it and installed Xubuntu cause, its faster than Ubuntu. This laptop has like 60 gig memory and like 256 mb RAM so it goes really slow
[23:09] <dragon67>  /part
[23:09] <nit-wit> rhino, you might like easybcd for a bootmanager
[23:09] <thinkster> solidpikmin, that is more than plenty to run any desktop you want
[23:09] <solidpikmin> @thinker what? 256ram? and 60 gigs?
[23:09] <thinkster> My computer is 50g and
[23:10] <thinkster> My system has never used more than 200mb ram
[23:10] <rhino> nit-wit: Sounds good. Happy to have what's best. Bootmgr still missing. On the third and fourth commands it reported 0 Windows partitions found :(
[23:10] <solidpikmin> well, Ive installed Ubuntu 10.04 and it runs really really slow, even after having had removed somethings in BUM
[23:11] <nhck> nit-wit: thank you very much.
[23:11] <nhck> nit-wit++
[23:11] <thinkster> solidpikmin, seriously, woow, I have here, a 2ghz, 256+128mb ram and 40gig, and I am running debian just fine
[23:11]  * w30 likes Lubuntu for low spec computers
[23:11] <solidpikmin> @thinkster really?  Yeah it runs really slow D:
[23:12] <thinkster> solidpikmin, My ram is at 51% and cpu at 5% and I have xfce desktop, apache server, and cairo-dock running right now
[23:12] <nit-wit> nhck, no problem I wondered if it was there. ;)
[23:13] <thinkster> solidpikmin, it might be a bad suggestion in this channel, but maybe try Debian
[23:13] <solidpikmin> @thinkster how exactly do I check? cause, I'm still kind of Nubish
[23:13] <nhck> nit-wit: booted off a live-cd to fix this disk. Win7 Partition-Manager made a boobo :-D
[23:13] <solidpikmin> debian?
[23:13] <cypha> In the first 15 seconds AFTER logging into ubuntu, it looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/pGYsK.png ||| and then after 15 seconds, it looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/i6CGM.png ||| WHY IS IT CHANGING?
[23:13] <thinkster> solidpikmin, yeah, come to channel debian
[23:13] <solidpikmin> oh okay
[23:14] <solidpikmin> okay thanks
[23:15] <thinkster> solidpikmin, anyway, changing desktop bg is easy http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/desktop-x-windows/44062-icewm-background.html  "icewmgb /path/to/your/background.jpg"
[23:15] <solidpikmin> @thinkster thanks are you in debian?
[23:15] <bhook> cypha: because some dev thought it would be amusing
[23:15] <nit-wit> nhck, hmm you probably want to run that from a live cd
[23:15] <thinkster> solidpikmin, yep
[23:15] <cypha> ?
[23:15] <solidpikmin> cool xD
[23:15] <cypha> bhook, what do you mean?
[23:15] <thinkster> solidpikmin, you aren't though
[23:15] <bhook> cypha: honestly I don't know... mine started doing it after a few updates
[23:16] <bhook> cypha: my first comment was intended as a joke
[23:16] <solidpikmin> @thinkster thanks, I just got on debian too
[23:16] <cypha> bhook, so yours still does it?
[23:16] <bhook> cypha: yes
[23:16] <cypha> wow
[23:16] <cypha> how have you tried to fix it?
[23:16] <bhook> cypha: and setting the theme manually only fixes it until the next reboot
[23:17] <bhook> cypha: honestly, I don't care which theme I'm in, so I just started ignoring it
[23:18] <rhino> nit-wit: Good news. I can now boot into Windows. Now, should I get busy with grub or easybcd?
[23:19] <bhook> cypha: you might be able to get it to work by starting with a clean home directory. It seems to have something to do with a setting that gets tweaked after an update is installed
[23:19] <cypha> hmm
[23:19] <nit-wit> rhino, cool your choice I like grub myself I can give you the commands
[23:20] <cypha> k
[23:20] <rhino> nit-wit: that'd be great if you have them. Can you pastebin it for me?
[23:21] <kandinski> how can I find printers in the local network? I am running Natty and sitting at my new job in a totally unknown network. Thanks!
[23:22] <nit-wit> rhino, sure eeven better the web page do this from the Ubuntu live cd that you installed with.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Copy%20LiveCD%20Files
[23:22] <cypha> bhook, where are themes saved? I went to Appearance Preferences, and selected "Ambiance" and clicked install, and then it took me to a window to find the theme package
[23:22] <bhook> cypha: I'm not sure exactly
[23:22] <nit-wit> rhino, ask away if you need to I didn't remember the actual partition ubuntu is in
[23:23] <cypha> how did you select themes?
[23:23] <bhook> cypha: same window
[23:23] <bhook> cypha: just click the one you want
[23:23] <nit-wit> rhino, did you see the link
[23:23] <bhook> cypha: you only need to click install if you want to install one that isn't in the list
[23:24] <cypha> ooh, gotcha
[23:24] <rhino> nit-wit: Great, thanks. I'll report back tomorrow when I've done it. You've been a great help. Very kind of you.
[23:24] <cypha> bhook, none of those themes change the menu and taskbar though
[23:24] <bhook> they should
[23:24] <nit-wit> rhino, I gave the grub2 wiki  link so  ask away if you need to I didn't remember the actual partition ubuntu is in
[23:24] <bhook> cypha: sometimes it takes a few seconds
[23:24] <rhino> nit-wit: Yes saw it. Got disconnected.
[23:24] <nit-wit> rhino, no problem
[23:25] <nit-wit> rhino, saw you come back on
[23:25] <cypha> nope
[23:25] <cypha> not at all
[23:25] <bhook> cypha: well then, your issue is more severe than mine is/was
[23:25] <rhino> nit-wit: Thanks again. Speak tomorrow.
[23:25] <cypha> should I just reinstall ubuntu?
[23:26] <nit-wit> rhino, see you then. ;)
[23:26] <bhook> cypha: well, if you are that hung-up on the theme
[23:26] <cypha> bhook, theme doesn't bother me. bothers me that it changes
[23:27] <bhook> cypha: a fresh install might fix it... but after the updates are installed it might break again
[23:27] <sw0rdfish> !host
[23:28] <bhook> grrr.... UEC is making me made
[23:28] <bhook> mad*
[23:28] <bhook> I think I'm going to have to re-install for the 3rd time this weekend
[23:29] <bhook> attached volumes aren't recognized by the instances... something isn't right
[23:29] <cypha> bhook, so basically you've never been able to fix it
[23:29] <cypha> it's sad that a fresh install seems like the only way to fix this
[23:29] <bhook> cypha: like I said, I just started ignoring it
[23:30] <bhook> cypha: I said a clean user directory might
[23:30] <cypha> any particular files?
[23:30] <bhook> cypha: I'd just try moving the entire directory and copying back what you need after you get it fixed
[23:31] <bhook> cypha: a faster way to test that might be to just create a new user and see if the new user has the same problems
[23:32] <bhook> well, a mildly irritated me is going to go reinstall my servers.... again
[23:32] <bhook> laterz
[23:32] <cypha> bye
[23:32] <cypha> how do I zip files?
[23:34] <fzapp> cypha, 'zip newname.zip mask'
[23:34] <fzapp> example: zip mynew.zip *.txt
[23:34] <fzapp> try 'man zip' for more commands
[23:34] <cypha> fzapp, to zip a whole directory
[23:35] <fzapp> In your File Manager you may try to zip with right click
[23:35] <cypha> keeping it's underlying directory structure
[23:35] <fzapp> cypha, zip -r newzip <dir>
[23:35] <eHAPPY> any idea why I cant install Ubuntu 11.04 on any of my systems?
[23:35] <cypha> thanks fzapp
[23:35] <cypha> :)
[23:36] <fzapp> ;)
[23:36] <fzapp> I will come back soon
[23:37] <himanshu_> I set the proxy in terminal using http_proxy and in Network Proxy and SYnaptic package manager....yet whernever i run apt-get it gives 407 Proxy Authentication error
[23:37] <himanshu_> but it works fine in synaptic manager
[23:38] <cypha> himanshu_, if you've ever had another password, try that password
[23:38] <Terabyte> does ubuntu server have an admin group?
[23:38] <Terabyte> (out of the box)
[23:39] <himanshu_> the username and passwork is right

[23:43] <Oer> ah i see, sorry eHAPPY, same error on Ubuntu you mean
[23:43] <eHAPPY> yeh
[23:43] <Oer> oke, check if you have a Sata harddisk, and bios is set on IDE instead of AHCI
[23:44] <eHAPPY> it is
[23:44] <eHAPPY> i even forced all ide and same result
[23:44] <Oer> oke, that might be the issue, set it on AHCI, ubuntu has sata drivers
[23:45] <Oer> eHAPPY, if that does not solve, check how many Primairy partitions you have now
[23:45] <eHAPPY> all disks are raw btw
[23:46] <Oer> oke, no 4 primairy partitions issue then.
[23:48] <eHAPPY> pssf found the problem

[23:52] <cypha> should I install the 3rd party software when installing Ubuntu?
[23:53] <chilversc> why does ubuntuforums keep demanding I have an account and login to view posts?
[23:53] <th0r> chilversc: I believe those posts are obsolete and no longer apply, so they have been deletede
[23:54] <cypha> do you guys usually install the 3rd party software (Flash, MP3, other media) when installing ubuntu, or do it manually later?
[23:54] <gilrez> hello everyone!
[23:54] <cypha> hi
[23:54] <chilversc> ah, yeah probably the case seeing a similar question on askubuntu saying that newer versions of iTunes encrypt daap
[23:55] <cypha> chilversc, that's to answer me?
[23:55] <chilversc> nope
[23:55] <cypha> so did you install the 3rd party mp3 and flash software during full installation?
[23:55] <cypha> or did you do it manually later?
[23:55] <Oer> cypha, i installed it directly
[23:56] <cypha> Oer, including fluendo MP3 plugin?
[23:56] <Oer> cypha, yes.
[23:56] <cypha> cool, thanks
[23:56] <com64> okay, I'm back
