[07:27] <An-iSociaL> still trying to figure out how to establish 2 pptp vpn (not vnc) connections
[07:27] <An-iSociaL> it seems it only has device ppp0
[07:28] <An-iSociaL> i guess i need to be able to use 1 and ppp1
[07:28] <gulzar> any operator here? I want to see log of my postings here. I put a command here long back about 2 weeks but not remembering it and I also cleared my xchat log from /home. Any help.
[07:28] <ksx4system> bandit5432: I wonder how good/bad can this one perform in radio/podcasting usage
[07:29] <bandit5432> ksx4system, that i dont know worth a try though
[07:29] <Guest64841> how owuld i go back to windows since i cant even dj?
[07:29] <An-iSociaL> ok since nobody know ill keep searching n maybe try back later
[07:30] <bandit5432> ksx4system, i always liked the screenshots but i have never gotten around to playing with it
[07:30] <ksx4system> bandit5432: just 'cause of less hassle with double/triple sound cards + some cool software (freeware jingle players, Audacity, some cool freeware audio recorder with epic performance even on Pentium II class rig) I used to use winblows 2k
[07:31] <ksx4system> Guest64841: go to ##windows and ask
[07:31] <bandit5432> i miss win2k
[07:31] <kornez> where can i find a good manual to ubunto users and permissions? i don't understand how this works at all...
[07:31] <ksx4system> bandit5432: one of better releases of that shit
[07:31] <gulzar> kornez: search at linux-tips . they have many good books
[07:31] <bandit5432> ksx4system, thats the truth
[07:31] <glioros> Guest64841 stop using windows if you want to be a real MAN
[07:32] <bandit5432> Guest64841, is a girl glioros :P
[07:32] <bandit5432> jk
[07:32] <glioros> blond?
[07:32] <bandit5432> could be
[07:32] <bandit5432> arent they what ever you want them to be?
[07:33] <glioros> it depends
[07:33] <bandit5432> wait wait thats a diff channel
[07:33] <gulzar> glioros: Guest64841 : don't stop using windows . Windows can't be USED it can only be broken. Start computing and work with Linux  :)
[07:33] <ksx4system> bandit5432: I should get back to podcasting with some new rig (USB high quality soundcard like Audiotrak Maya + totally silent hardware + stripped down to bare bones Debian)
[07:33] <gulzar> any operator here? I want to see log of my postings here. I put a command here long back about 2 weeks but not remembering it and I also cleared my xchat log from /home. Any help.
[07:33] <Guest64841> im new too ubantu but like it and jus getting used too it but  i need some type of dj sotware
[07:34] <bandit5432> ksx4system, that sounds like a project
[07:34] <gulzar> Guest64841: which app is that? give me link or name
[07:34] <bandit5432> any one get kernel 3.1 to work succesfully?
[07:34] <Guest64841> i used to use virtual dj
[07:34] <gulzar> Guest64841: when here on irc use names to address comments or it becomes confusing. You can use TAB to complete names
[07:34] <ksx4system> bandit5432: fuck yeah, podcast powered entirely by open source software
[07:34] <bandit5432> dj apps for linux dont know if any of them work http://linux-sound.org/ddj.html
[07:35] <gulzar> Guest64841: see bandit5432 link you can find something
[07:35] <Tm_T> ksx4system: language, please
[07:37] <kfizz1> Any thoughts/reflections on switching from Ubuntu to Mint?
[07:37] <Guest64841> gulzar: where is the link?
[07:37] <Abhijit> kfizz1, get the one 'you' are comfortable with. explore both and decide
[07:37] <dr_willis> i dont see the point in switching.g to mint
[07:37] <gulzar> kfizz1: why? any special requiremetns?
[07:37] <gulzar> Guest64841:  dj apps for linux dont know if any of them work http://linux-sound.org/ddj.html
[07:38] <geboy> can someone help me setting virtual network interface on oneiric desktop? i need to setup clonezlla server
[07:38] <bandit5432> gulzar, look at http://terminatorx.org/
[07:38] <gulzar> kfizz1: good thing abt Mint is that you can install more apps easily from soft center. like VIrtualBox full version etc.
[07:39] <gulzar> kfizz1: rest no difference
[07:39] <kfizz1> Just can't get used to Unity. For some reason (I think related to Unity and/or compiz) my system hangs and all the apps start taking up as much CPU as they can -- has happened twice tonight. I miss the easy customization Ubuntu used to offer, etc.
[07:39] <bandit5432> kfizz1, unity will ship with next mint
[07:39] <bandit5432> look into xfce lxde or gnome 3 fallback
[07:39] <ksx4system> yay, this minimal CD rocks... ol' good Debian's installer
[07:39] <gulzar> bandit5432: I think guest wants a dj software to play his music collection.... it is different
[07:40] <ksx4system> I'll never install Ubuntu any other way than that
[07:40] <dr_willis> gnome2 was actually lacking in customization in many ways. ;)  unity in the 12.x release will gain more customization features
[07:40] <gulzar> kfizz1: mint12 is getting lots of extensions for gnome3. check there website
[07:40] <bandit5432> dr_willis,  a working group manager would benice
[07:40] <dr_willis> theres always gnome-shell
[07:40] <bandit5432> which does not have a working group manger
[07:41] <gulzar> any operator here? I want to see log of my postings here. I put a command here long back about 2 weeks but not remembering it and I also cleared my xchat log from /home. Any help.
[07:41] <bandit5432> upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10 was like 6.04 to 6.10
[07:41] <bandit5432> sucky
[07:41] <dr_willis> !log
[07:41] <bandit5432> any one running kernel 3.1?
[07:42] <bandit5432> i cant get it to boot it hangs
[07:42] <bandit5432> tried release  rc10 rc7 and there are no dailys for 32bit
[07:43] <kfizz1> I was thinking about LMDE. But I think I'll just have to accept change either way because I'm sure that will be going the way of Gnome 3.
[07:43] <dr_willis> ive seen no metio of lxde changeing much in the future
[07:44] <bandit5432> lmde is linux mint debian
[07:44] <bandit5432> just had to look that up
[07:45] <dr_willis> gnome2 is dead.. just kicking around a bit more. ;)
[07:45] <gnnr> lxde is lightweight desktop environment...
[07:45] <gulzar> please help .which one is #ubuntu file? http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2011/10/21/
[07:45] <bandit5432> dr_willis, looks that way, will have to see how the fork goes
[07:45] <dr_willis> i imagine the fork will not go very far.
[07:46] <dr_willis> i remember the ximian gnome days however. ;)
[07:46] <bandit5432> gulzar, scroll to bottom almost 	its #ubuntu.txt
[07:46] <bandit5432> dr_willis, is old fart
[07:46] <gulzar> bandit5432: Oh yes
[07:47] <bandit5432> oh i remember ximian now
[07:47] <bandit5432> the monkey distro
[07:47] <dr_willis> things go in cycles.. i remember befor we had 'start menus'  like the amiga. now we seem almost back that way
[07:48] <dr_willis> c64 geos - app launcher like pages in a book. similer to how unity/gshell/android works
[07:48] <bandit5432> start menus you mean like win 3.1 or dos
[07:49] <dr_willis> yep.. gotta love big changes that seem to fall back to how things were ages befor.
[07:50] <bandit5432> seems like we didnt get smarter we got dumber
[07:50] <dr_willis> userfriendly  means dumbing things down these days..
[07:50] <bandit5432> pretty == the new productivity
[07:51] <kfizz1> I like the old productivity.

[07:55] <bandit5432> any one using kernel 3.1 ?
[07:56] <RKyle> How do you install a .deb file in Ubuntu 11.10?
[07:56] <dr_willis> some days it seems 90% of the questions asked i here are allready answered at askubuntu.com ;)
[07:56] <dr_willis> RKyle:  double click  is one way..  sudo dpkg -i foo.deb is another
[07:56] <gnnr> sudo dpkg -i package.deb
[07:57] <bandit5432> ok some one has installed 4 versions of 3.1 and cant get the computer to boot ?
[07:57] <dr_willis> sudo gdebi foo.deb     is a 3rd..
[07:57] <dr_willis> i tend to use    gdebi
[07:57] <bandit5432> gdebi ftw
[07:57] <dr_willis> RKyle:  what is the deb exactly?
[07:58] <RKyle> A wireless card driver.
[07:58] <bandit5432> its gnome-panel 2.14.4
[07:58] <ucenik03> da be
[07:58] <ucenik11> so mi prajs
[07:59] <RKyle> The software center won't install it and I have to use TTY1 for commands.
[07:59] <dr_willis> RKyle:  normally you use the 'addational drivers' tool ald let it install them. if you got a wired connection.

[08:20] <kremi> Hello all, how can I setup and configure ssh server on my ubuntu 10.04?
[08:20] <Milossh> hello. I have installed firefox from mozilla's public ftp, but I have a problem when I set it a default browser, and then open links from within, say skype.(this works for any other app. It doesn't open link if my browser is already running, but opens new firefox window)
[08:20] <Milossh> fwiw, double clicking a .html file in nautilus opens file in firefox as it should
[08:21] <llutz_> kremi: basically: sudo apt-get install openssh-server       and it will run. you should read "man sshd_config" for some options you might want to change.
[08:21] <gulzar> llutz_: I am bad at searching command on google. But I will follow you.  I am bad at finding commands
[08:23] <ucenik11> kill him
[08:23] <kremi> llutz, but I don't have installed already from installation of ubuntu?

[08:28] <jtr__> hello ! i have a problem with triple boot and grub... is this the right place?  ( my ditros are ubuntu, fedora and win 7 )
[08:28] <gulzar> ucenik11: ucenik03 : you people are using nice language I will pick it up after few laughs
[08:29] <gulzar> jtr__: which one you installed LASR?
[08:29] <jtr__> LASR ?
[08:29] <jtr__> last ?
[08:29] <szal> jtr__: since when is Win7 a distro? ;)
[08:29] <gulzar> jtr__: yes last
[08:30] <gulzar> szal: gud one...
[08:30] <jtr__> ubuntu ( in an ext 4 of fedora )
[08:30] <jtr__> i mean fedora has the hold over the main lvm , ubuntu was installed in an ext4 partition
[08:30] <ucenik03> wazzup
[08:30] <GeorgeJ> szal: Can't Windows 7 be considered a distribution of the Windows OS?
[08:31] <gulzar> jtr__: if ubuntu is last then there should be no problem. Install - startup manager . It will solve your problem of menu . (it do in my case)
[08:31] <jtr__> pardon me win 7 is not a distro, its like hardware for dell computers, it has to be there :P
[08:31] <gulzar> GeorgeJ: no win7 is a crap it can't be a distro
[08:31] <ucenik03> yes skros
[08:31] <ucenik03> :P
[08:31] <jtr__> its working perfectly fine sir, the problem is how do i remove fedora and still not mess up ubuntu
[08:31] <ikonia> gulzar: stop it
[08:31] <GeorgeJ> gulzar: If you say so..
 ucenik11: again I don't know what it means
[08:31] <ucenik11> admin?
[08:31] <gulzar> ikonia: so you are win lovers
[08:32] <ikonia> gulzar: stop it now.
[08:32] <ucenik03> yes i am :D
[08:32] <jtr__> can someone answer that ?
[08:32] <ucenik11> who plays cs 1.6 and who is bot?
[08:32] <jtr__> ucenik11: lol!
[08:32] <ucenik03> xD
[08:32] <gulzar> jtr__: install startup manager
[08:32] <ikonia> ucenik11: the topic of this channel is ubuntu support only. Please keep to that topic, you have been kicked once as a warning
[08:32] <Volkodav> How come removing gwibber pulls desktop-ubuntu as independency for removal as well ?
[08:32] <jtr__> for ubuntu ?
[08:32] <ucenik11> who eats shit? u piece of shit!
[08:33] <szal> jtr__: where's the problem w/ that?
[08:33] <llutz_> ikonia: would you pls ... ucenik*
[08:33] <llutz_> ah
[08:33] <GeorgeJ> Aren't kids supposed to be in school at this time of dat?
[08:33] <reenignEesreveR-> how does gnu make determine that a certain rule needs not rebuild
[08:33] <GeorgeJ> s/dat/day/
[08:33] <llutz_> GeorgeJ: i fear, they ARE in school
[08:33]  * gulzar feels like trapped with some win lovers on ubuntu irc
[08:33] <jtr__> ucenik11: damn , you're funny, but not at all when i want people to help me and they have to spend time reading ur shit !
[08:34] <ikonia> jtr__: drop the language, please.
[08:34] <jtr__> jtr__:  sure :)
[08:34] <ikonia> gulzar: this is the last warning I'll give you
[08:34] <jtr__> should i just delete the fedora partition ?
[08:34] <strix_> ucenik11 = student11 in english
[08:36] <GeorgeJ> How does one turn off the auto-maximization feature when a window is shown in Unity  under Ubuntu 11.10?
[08:37] <jtr__> can someone help here ?
[08:38] <llutz_> jtr__: if you want to remove fedora, you should be sure to have written ubuntus grub into MBR first
[08:38] <jtr__> llutz_: how do i do that ?
[08:38] <llutz_> jtr__: easiest way: boot into ubuntu, reinstall grub
[08:38] <jtr__> llutz_: will it not hamper my windows 7 entry in MBR?
[08:39] <llutz_> jtr__:w7 in MBR? how do you start linux?
[08:39] <GeorgeJ> llutz_: w7 might just be an entry in grub
[08:39] <llutz_> GeorgeJ: so its NOT in MBR
[08:40] <jtr__> llutz_: i get win7 boot display, and then i choose among the three distros , when i choose ubuntu grub opens up
[08:40] <GeorgeJ> llutz_: I don't know where grub stores its list entries, so I would not know
[08:40] <jtr__> llutz_: same with fedora , its grub shows up ( ubuntu and fedora grubs have distinct looks )
[08:40] <jtr__> llutz_: plus in the ubuntu grub i see the win 7 entry  !
[08:41] <sp4z> hi all, is there a server edition of ubuntu for 32bit machines?
[08:41] <jtr__> llutz_: i used some guide on triple booting fedora win7 and ubuntu ( i thought it was smart, and hey it worked )
[08:41] <llutz_> jtr__: in that case it should be safe just to remove fedora. (but i don't know w7-bootloader)
[08:41] <MagBo> are there any ubuntu developers? I wonder how to extract ubuntu-vga-detecting magic to use it in my own live dirstro.
[08:42] <strix_> jtr__: so linux grub entries are on linux partitions?
[08:42] <jtr__> strix_: ya, maybe they are , would it help if i gave u a partition detail on pastebin ?
[08:43] <strix_> jtr__: and you boot from windows boot menu. do you set up this from windows with EasyBCD
[08:43] <jtr__> strix_: 90% i think that is the case , because i used some other software ( from win 7 ) which registers linux boot entries after detecting them
[08:43] <jtr__> strix_: yes ESASYBCD!!!!
[08:44] <strix_> jtr__: i see, so you want to remove fedora, and leave w7 and ubuntu
[08:44] <jtr__> strix_: after deleting fedora i want to use its space and some more from the win7 ntfs partition
[08:44] <llutz_> jtr__: easier just to use grub and boot win7 from there. no additional software needed at all
[08:44] <jtr__> strix_: ya basically remove fedora first ( its irritating )
[08:45] <jtr__> strix_: the problem i face is because of three distros assigned individual spaces i run out of space on ubuntu.
[08:45] <MagBo> I was thinking about doing the following: having per-vga packages shipped with my live distro and an initscript working in a tiny linux to detect hardware then building per-boot package set and kexec into the per-boot made linux setup. I wonder what ubuntu devs think about that approach :)
[08:46] <strix_> jtr__: so remove fedora entry with EasyBCD, remove fedora partition and use the space for something else
[08:46] <MagBo> jtr__: you can (and must) easily share partition between your OSes :)
[08:47] <aum__> hello everyone, i have installed some software (apache ,php, mysql  etc) through apt-get now i want to install it on another machine where i do not have internet connection , how can i copy and configure .deb files
[08:47] <jtr__> strix_: ok ill do that and if after that ubuntu works, i will see you on this IRC :D
[08:47] <MagBo> on this Internets :)
[08:47] <skilz> Hi
[08:47] <llutz_> aum__: if both machines use the same os-version, copy the deb from /var/cache/apt/archives
[08:47] <strix_> jtr__: it'l boot
[08:48] <jtr__> strix_: thank you
[08:48] <strix_> jtr__: np
[08:48] <skilz> Anyone know of a battery monitoring app that will sit in the tray in fluxbox?
[08:48] <jtr__> MagBo: i just wanted to be sure, i dont want to have a blank screen at startup, anyways brb
[08:49] <healern> Is there a linux version of sfx recovery software?
[08:50] <aum__> thank you, llutz_  , will it be visible in synaptic package manager ?
[08:50] <szal> what is 'sfx recovery software'?
[08:51] <llutz_> aum__: no, you either have to copy them into /var/cache/apt/archives on target machine and "apt-get install php...." or use dpkg -i *.deb to install them
[08:52] <aum__> ok thank you...
[08:52] <milligan> Um, I think I've been a twit and removed my user from the sudoers group, without setting a password for root .. is there any way to fix that without booting a live cd etc ?
[08:52] <ikonia> milligan: boot into single user mode (recovery mode) from grub
[08:52] <ryannathans> hmm my load is always 1.00 and above, never below 1.00, cpu is only at 2%,
[08:52] <milligan> alright :(
[08:53] <ikonia> milligan: why is that sad ?
[08:53] <milligan> ikonia, I have to boot.
[08:53] <llutz_> uptime-fetish :)
[08:54] <ikonia> milligan: what do you expect ?
[08:54] <milligan> No :) My uptime is like three minuts now, haha
[08:54] <milligan> I did a usermod -G to my user.. I never edited the sudoers file. Is that command sufficient to screw up my sudo permissions ?
[08:54] <jtr__> strix_: i dont know which partition to remove :(
[08:54] <llutz_> milligan: -aG it should have been
[08:55] <milligan> llutz, right. So, what group do I need to add my user to to be able to use sudo again ?
[08:55] <milligan> sudo ?
[08:55] <llutz_> milligan: adduser user admin (admin is the group for sudo)
[08:56] <milligan> right. So, if I don't want to add a new user, but fix my current, I would do: usermod -aG admin,milligan,vboxusers milligan ?
[08:56] <llutz_> milligan: yes
[08:57] <milligan> cheers.
[08:57] <milligan> brb
[08:57] <llutz_> milligan: adduser does more than just creating users (read man adduser)
[08:57] <cloud> Hi guys, i just installed xfce desktop on my ubuntu 11.10 machine, and suddenly i cant access my home directory it gives an error saying, (error starting file /home/me/.gvfs: Transport endpoint is not connected) is there a fix for this maybe? or have i messed up me os?
[08:58] <xiaojiong> hi
[08:58] <xiaojiong> hello
[09:00] <xiaojiong> ???
[09:00] <aum__>  llutz_   mysql is not visible in that folder /var/cache/apt/archives
[09:01] <MagBo> !anybody | xiaojiong
[09:01] <MagBo> ah, he left :(
[09:03] <llutz_> aum__: then it has been already installed before. iirc you can use synaptic on target machine to create a script to download packages on other machines. have a look, it might help you
[09:04] <llutz_> aum__: that should pull all packages you need
[09:07] <karl-augustt> hello

[09:14] <zoonk> hi
[09:15] <Fudge> hi im trying to prepare a partition for freebsd on my lucid box inside an extended partition with a couple of ubuntus, i have 22gig free space i want to allocate but not sure how to set it up for ufs or hfs which i think the fs needs to be
[09:15] <protanjung> what ever
[09:16] <dnivra> hello. I am trying to install openvas-server on Ubuntu 11.10 and I'm getting the following error -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/730799/. Could someone tell me what is wrong?
[09:16] <norbert_> hi, the area on the sides of the windows where the cursor changes into a resize window icon is too small
[09:17] <norbert_> I don't even understand how the developers can work like this
[09:17] <norbert_> surely they themselves must notice these things
[09:17] <norbert_> sorry about that, but sometimes stuff pisses me off
[09:17] <ksx4system> anybody else has issues with TRIM on latest Ubuntu?
[09:18] <ksx4system> test from here https://sites.google.com/site/lightrush/random-1/checkiftrimonext4isenabledandworking does not output zeros
[09:18] <ksx4system> ext4's discard set up correctly
[09:18] <ksx4system> what's wrong?
[09:20] <h33lt0e> I got a problem, I'm trying to set a pssword on my username and it wont let me.  There is no password on my account but it's asking me to authenticate with a password, is theres something i am supposed to type in the box?
[09:21] <zoonk> thats strange.. for wat accnt?
[09:21] <h33lt0e> the administrator account
[09:21] <h33lt0e> i had a password, then i removed it
[09:21] <JapyDooge> udevd-work[237]: open /dev/null failed: No such file or directory
[09:21] <h33lt0e> now i want to change settings and it keeps asking me for a password
[09:21] <JapyDooge> lol
[09:21] <h33lt0e> i type in the old password and it doesnt work, i leave it blank and it doesnt work
[09:22] <zoonk> try going to keys and encryption
[09:22] <Fudge> set a password sudo passwd username
[09:23] <dc5ala> JapyDooge, want a copy of that file?
[09:23] <h33lt0e> trying to set a psswrod with sudo does the same thing!
[09:23] <zoonk> i'm guessing you used differnt passwd during installation of OS
[09:23] <h33lt0e> nope
[09:23] <h33lt0e> i used the same password
[09:23] <h33lt0e> which is "password"
[09:24] <JapyDooge> hmm dc5ala ? :p
[09:24] <h33lt0e> then i loged it, then i deleted the password and set it to "none"
[09:24] <zoonk> does opening keys and password show anything?
[09:24] <h33lt0e> now it wont let me make any changes anywhere
[09:24] <h33lt0e> where do i open keys?
[09:24] <zoonk> just search from dash?
[09:25] <h33lt0e> theres one entry
[09:25] <h33lt0e> it says "Passwords: login"
[09:25] <zoonk> hmm try opening it
[09:25] <h33lt0e> all it says is is keyring tab
[09:25] <h33lt0e> Name:  login
[09:25] <h33lt0e> Created: blank
[09:26] <albech> how can i backup a CF card with 3 partitions on? I wish to maintain the partitions structure and data so it can be copied to another CF (same size)
[09:26] <h33lt0e> password
[09:27] <llutz_> albech: sudo cat /dev/sdX >/path/cf-backup.img
[09:27] <llutz_> albech: "/dev/sdX" = your cf-card
[09:27] <albech> llutz_ will that get all partitions and the MBR?
[09:27] <llutz_> albech: it will
[09:27] <BaNz> Hi guys, i've a reverse ssh to a server where i'm connected by a vpn server, how can i do to route a ftp connection through the reverse?
[09:27] <ksx4system> well, one more time: what's wrong with TRIM support in Ubuntu 11.10? OCZ Vertex2 SSD, ext4 mounted with discard, nodiratime and relatime - DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY
[09:27] <zoonk> opening user
[09:27] <albech> llutz_ you are a life saver ;)
[09:28] <zoonk> try opening user and groups
[09:28] <llutz_> albech: md5sum cf-card+image and compare md5
[09:28] <albech> llutz_ good call..
[09:28] <h33lt0e> i openned user account, it wont let me change anything since i need to unlock it
[09:29] <h33lt0e> it says "password: none", but i cant change it because i need to unlock it and then it asks to authenticate
[09:29] <zoonk> can you change user type?
[09:29] <h33lt0e> no i cannot
[09:29] <llutz_> h33lt0e: open a terminal, type"passwd"  and set new password
[09:29] <zoonk> add a new user?
[09:30] <h33lt0e> it wants me to authenticate to change anything
[09:30] <h33lt0e> llutz:  IT WORKED! thank you
[09:30] <h33lt0e> that was ridiculous
[09:30] <ksx4system> well, one more time: what's wrong with TRIM support in Ubuntu 11.10? OCZ Vertex2 SSD, ext4 mounted with discard, nodiratime and relatime - DOES NOT WORK CORRECTL
[09:32] <Jordan_U> MagBo: I would highly recommend doing a normal installation rather than continuing to try to use a live media as a real installation.
[09:32] <Jordan_U> ksx4system: Please stop with the caps lock.
[09:32] <kornez> linux is terrible
[09:32] <kornez> ...
[09:33] <ksx4system> Jordan_U: if you can't/don't want to help at least stop trolling :) thanks in advance
[09:33] <xgt001> hi, can someboday suggest how to make the ubuntu unity global menu always visible? any hacks/patches?
[09:33] <kornez> awfull invention...
[09:33] <llutz_> kornez: +support+
[09:33] <dnivra> hello. I am trying to install openvas-server on Ubuntu 11.10 and I'm getting the following error -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/730799/. Could someone tell me what is wrong?
[09:33] <llutz_> kornez: ranting/whining next door
[09:35] <xgt001> anyone?
[09:35] <deej1976> xgt001: You can remove the global-menu and just google it.
[09:36] <xgt001> deej1976, nope i want global menu but i dont want that thing to auto hide
[09:38] <ksx4system> well, one more time: what's wrong with TRIM support in Ubuntu 11.10? OCZ Vertex2 SSD, ext4 mounted with discard, nodiratime and relatime - DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY
[09:38] <ikonia> ksx4system: define DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY
[09:38] <ikonia> ksx4system: (if you can do it without caps that would be better)
[09:39] <ksx4system> ikonia: it doesn't pass this test https://sites.google.com/site/lightrush/random-1/checkiftrimonext4isenabledandworking (with 11.04 it worked like a charm)
[09:40] <ikonia> ksx4system: what does it do
[09:40] <karl-augustt> how to migrate to 11.10 with an 10.04
[09:41] <karl-augustt> le
[09:41] <ksx4system> ikonia: read linked page. last command should output zeros, it doesn't (file was deleted but sectors content was untouched - we can say that it wasn't really deleted = trim doesn't work)
[09:41] <llutz_> karl-augustt: 10.04 -> 10.10 -> 11.04-> 11.10  better to install from new  or wait until 12.04 will be released
[09:41] <ikonia> ksx4system: I'm well aware of that test, hence why I'm asking what your machine actually does
[09:42] <ksx4system> ikonia: well, as I said: outputs untouched content. file was deleted (ls | grep filename = doesn't exist) but its content is still present on ssd
[09:43] <ksx4system> and it is even after ~20 minutes
[09:43] <ksx4system> long enough to kick in for trim
[09:43] <ikonia> ksx4system: does the ocz support trim ? can you show me your fstab, have you mounted/unmounted after updating fstab
[09:43] <ikonia> ksx4system: fstab is not dynamic
[09:43] <ksx4system> ikonia: yes, it does (OCZ Vertex2 60Gb with latest 1.35 firmware). I rebooted after editing fstab
[09:44] <ikonia> ksx4system: can you show me where that device shows trim support (I'm asking as I have 2 of the exact same devices)
[09:46] <ksx4system> ikonia: hdparm -I /dev/sda | grep TRIM outputs two lines "Data Set Management TRIM supported (limit 1 block)" and "Deterministic read data after TRIM"
[09:47] <ikonia> ksx4system: ok - cool, I got that on mine too
[09:47] <ksx4system> it was one of my worst ideas ever to buy SSD
[09:47] <MagBo> Jordan_U: it has nothing to do with the problem I used to face (and solved) tonight
[09:48] <h33lt0e>  what folder does ubuntu install programs to?
[09:48] <ikonia> ksx4system: ahh, mine as OCZ Vertex PLUS, sorry, slightly different
[09:48] <ksx4system> I should just get one/two 10k rpm WD drives
[09:48] <ksx4system> ikonia: still it supports TRIM ;) but it's probably not Sandforce based
[09:48] <ikonia> ksx4system: totally agree
[09:48] <MagBo> Jordan_U: it's just that I came up with an idea of creating fully persistant live distro on top of archlinux that'll do ubuntu-like hardware-detecting magick
[09:48] <dnivra> I am trying to install openvas-server on Ubuntu 11.10 and I'm getting the following error -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/730799/. Could someone tell me what is wrong?
[09:49] <Jordan_U> MagBo: Why not just do a normal install of Ubuntu? A normal install of Ubuntu does dynamic hardware detection just like a live version.
[09:49] <ksx4system> ikonia: I'm sentenced to SSD now... HDD prices are crazy atm
[09:50] <MagBo> Jordan_U: I'm really interested in how is it solved in ubuntu, but I think that having package cache and booting in an intermediate linux that builds up needed stuff and kexeccing into the per-boot built system will do it :)
[09:50] <ikonia> ksx4system: I can't help you with that as I don't control the prices
[09:50] <ksx4system> ikonia: and current Ubuntu doesn't want to run with it... nightmare :/
[09:50] <ksx4system> ikonia: i know, i know
[09:50] <MagBo> Jordan_U: well, because - generally - I don't like ubuntu tbh :) I picked it as I needed to build up a simple bootable live distro to do some quick hacking
[09:51] <ksx4system> ikonia: well, I'll reboot this box one more time and check if this TRIM fail was temporary
[09:51] <Jordan_U> MagBo: Kexec doesn't magically pass along proper drivers and hardware configuration.
[09:51] <Jordan_U> MagBo: OK, then we should move this discussion to another channel like ##linux (if you want to continue).
[09:52] <MagBo> Jordan_U: ofc. I'll write some scripts that will be executed by the intermediate linux and then kexec in the per-boot configuration
[09:52] <MagBo> Jordan_U: sure, I'll be there in a second
[09:57] <BaNz> Hi, can someone help me with route?
[09:58] <TheHackOps> BaNz, Ill try
[09:58] <TheHackOps> BaNz, What seems to be the officer problem
[09:58] <ksx4system> ikonia: well, trim started by hand works (fstrim /) but it takes ages to finish
[09:59] <ksx4system> about one minute
[09:59] <ikonia> ksx4system: really,
[09:59] <ikonia> ksx4system: is it still showing as non-trim enabled with that test
[10:01] <BaNz> TheHackOps: I've a reverse from school to a personal server, on my server we'd set up a vpn i wanna do something when we are connected on the vpn we can connected by ftp to the school server can we do a route from 10.0.42.x to localhost (our reverse) port 12345 will it works? (dunno if i'm clear)
[10:02] <TheHackOps> BaNz, Uhh I dont know what your trying to do
[10:02] <TheHackOps> BaNz, Are you trying to make your local network accesable outsite of your school
[10:03] <BaNz> TheHackOps: Not really, even if that can be cool :D
[10:03] <TheHackOps> BaNz, What do you mean you have a reverse
[10:04] <BaNz> TheHackOps: reverse ssh from the school server to our server
[10:04] <MishkaEchoes> hey guys why does xchat seem to close on me randomly?
[10:04] <TheHackOps> Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[10:04] <BaNz> to bypass firewall
[10:04] <MishkaEchoes> and is xchat the preferred client for irc?
[10:05] <Thelmaria> MishkaEchoes: irssi is awesome. Irssi+screen.
[10:05] <ksx4system> ikonia: after "fstrim /" it passes test
[10:05] <llutz_> MishkaEchoes: its commonly used and shouldn't randomly close
[10:05] <BaNz> TheHackOps: Like this we can work at home on the school server
[10:06] <TheHackOps> BaNz, What are you trying to acomplish
[10:06] <TheHackOps> an ssh tunnel?
[10:06] <BaNz> TheHackOps: no the reverse ssh tunnel is workin' fine i just want to connect by ftp to the server
[10:07] <MishkaEchoes> llutz, when I switch workspaces and come back I can't find it, it also doesn't show up in the unity bar on the left
[10:07] <TheHackOps> BaNz, Ohh thats east
[10:07] <MishkaEchoes> that's what I ment by randomly
[10:07] <lexflex> join python
[10:07] <ikonia> ksx4system: if you test again now, what happens
[10:07] <ikonia> ksx4system: as in create a file, delete it
[10:07] <MishkaEchoes> I'm checking out http://irssi.org/download#binaries
[10:07] <MishkaEchoes> do I grab SuSe version?
[10:08] <MishkaEchoes> or do I have to grab the source and build it?
[10:08] <llutz_> MishkaEchoes: use irssi from repos, apt-get install irssi
[10:08] <ikonia> MishkaEchoes: not for ubuntu no
[10:08] <ksx4system> ikonia: k, I'm doing the test now
[10:08] <MishkaEchoes> gotcha ty
[10:09] <Bituser_> Um
[10:09] <Bituser_> Hi
[10:09] <Bituser_> Confused :S
[10:10] <ksx4system> ikonia: it takes aaaaaageeeeeeeees to fstrim, 1min 10sec
[10:10] <ksx4system> ikonia: again, test passed
[10:11] <ikonia> ksx4system: so it's as if trim is now enabled
[10:11] <ikonia> ksx4system: even without doing fstrim
[10:11] <ksx4system> ikonia: but it passes test only after running fstrim :(\
[10:11] <ksx4system> :( *
[10:12] <ikonia> ksx4system: ok - but if you create a file, delete it, don't run fstrim, does it pass ?
[10:14] <ksx4system> ikonia: no, I did rm tempfile && sync to remove it
[10:14] <ksx4system> ikonia: it passes test only with fstrim
[10:14] <ikonia> ksx4system: very dissapointing
[10:14] <yann2> hello! I am running a do-release-upgrade -d on maverick like I did 10 times last week and today I get: "An upgrade from 'lucid' to 'precise' is not supported with this tool."  ... wtf? :(
[10:14] <ikonia> yann2: why -d ?
[10:14] <yann2> want to upgrade from lucid to maverick
[10:15] <ikonia> yann2: control the language and follow the documented upgrade procedure
[10:15] <ikonia> yann2: -d is "development" version, maverick is not a development version, which document are you following ?
[10:15] <ksx4system> ikonia: well, temporary solution will be adding fstrim / to cron as daily... + @reboot
[10:15] <ikonia> ksx4system: that's not really a solution to me
[10:15] <yann2> ikonia, without a -d it says "No new release found", -d used to get it to work
[10:16] <ikonia> yann2: you need to undertand what options do, not just do them blindly
[10:16] <ikonia> !upgrade | yann2
[10:16] <ikonia> yann2: those instructions will walk you through the upgrade process
[10:16] <ksx4system> ikonia: for me it is (crappy and temporary one but at least works)
[10:16] <ksx4system> ikonia: I'll try to compile latest git kernel too
[10:16] <ikonia> ksx4system: I will look into the trim situation though with these drives
[10:16] <ikonia> ksx4system: I don't think the kernel will matter
[10:17] <bharath> #fsmk
[10:18] <yann2> ikonia, thanks for the url /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades  did the trick. Still I wonder why the former command doesn't work, had been working for months :(
[10:19] <ikonia> yann2: I told you why it won't work
[10:19] <nachos> Hi, is there something wrong with libutil in 11.10? I cant link to libutil. forkpty() is never found
[10:19] <ikonia> yann2: -d is "upgrade to development version"
[10:19] <yann2> I got that :)
[10:19] <ikonia> yann2: 11.04 is not a development version, neither is 11.10 - so the development version is 12.04
[10:19] <ikonia> yann2: so as you're error is rightly telling you, the upgrade to 12.04 is NOT supported,
[10:19] <ikonia> yann2: that's why it's not working
[10:20] <theadmin> It would work if you run "update-manager -d", as long as 12.04 actually exists...
[10:20] <theadmin> Which I doubt, honestly
[10:21] <nachos> is glibc broken in 11.10 ? forkpty is not in glibc
[10:21] <TheHackOps> k, people need to slow down and explain what their trying to achieve coz i get so confused sometimes
[10:22] <Jordan_U> nachos: Did you #include <pty.h> ?
[10:22] <nachos> yeah
[10:24] <nailora> for debian there is http://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=blobby for popcon for a single package. is there something alike for ubuntu?
[10:26] <sasori> hello , any sources/tuts how to change the syntax colors when coding using vim/vi ?
[10:27] <theadmin> sasori: http://www.fleiner.com/vim/create.html
[10:28] <theadmin> sasori: Basically, look at the files in ~/.vim/syntax or (I guess) /usr/share/vim/syntax
[10:28] <sasori> ok tnx for the link
[10:30] <hack_> hui
[10:37] <jita> I am using empathy chat client, sometimes i just close the contact list window and keep the chat windows open. Now how do i restore the closed main contact window back without having to relaunch the application?
[10:37] <jita> i am using unity on ubuntu 11.10
[10:40] <theadmin> jita: Um, it should sit in the notification area, I think you need to click your username and then "Empathy Instant Messenger"
[10:40] <theadmin> (if I recall it right)
[10:41] <jita> theadmin, isnt there a way to see the running background applications? like the status bar in the right bottom corner which gnome had ?
[10:42] <izik> I have removed my windows and installed ubuntu 11.10 and now when i try to connect the vpn, it work only with the wifi connection, however when i try to use it with the 3g iphone connection it just say "failed to connect" the internet does work with the 3g connection..
[10:42] <jita> theadmin, and windows
[10:42] <izik> i am little confused why this can happen? it did work on winows with the 3g and vpn
[10:42] <theadmin> jita: I have no idea, they messed a lot of things up
[10:42] <jita> lol
[10:42] <jita> ok
[10:43] <justrite> torrents!
[10:44] <idefix> is there a way to see what programs you installed lately using synaptic?
[10:44] <theadmin> idefix: /var/log/dpkg.log contains such info
[10:44] <idefix> thx
[10:46] <theadmin> !pm | idefix
[10:47] <idefix> but that file only contains entries of four days ago on my PC
[10:49] <jasonmchristos> day 7 what happens ?
[10:49] <Sidewinder1> idefix, In Synaptic, perhaps look under File-->History..
[10:52] <iceroot> can you recommend mailclients speaking owa/webdav instead of evolution?
[10:52] <Sidewinder1> idefix, In mine, history goes back for years and lists installed, updated and removed.
[10:52] <plotino> hi everybody
[10:52] <plotino> im just updated to ubutnu 11.10
[10:52] <plotino> but im very stuck with the settings of the desktop
[10:52] <plotino> no notification area, no taskbar
[10:53] <plotino> networking no working anymore
[10:53] <plotino> maybe it's better to downgrade to gnome2
[10:53] <Sidewinder1> !nounity | plotino
[10:53] <plotino> ubottu
[10:53] <plotino> now im out of internet
[10:54] <dr_willis> see the webupd8 blog site for unity tweaks...
[10:54] <plotino> it's possible to install the gnome-shell
[10:54] <theadmin> plotino: Bring the network up via the command line
[10:54] <groundnuty> anyone using any tag based filesystem or any other semantic music managment soft worth of recomendation?
[10:54] <dr_willis> and ubottu  is a bot...
[10:54] <Sterist> anyone know of an app that makes graph? when i put "graph" in the software center i get about 2000 results with "graphic" / "graphical"
[10:54] <dr_willis> plotino:  gnome shell is esay to install
[10:54] <plotino> ok
[10:54] <theadmin> dr_willis: Not if you have no internet (therefore, no APT access)
[10:54] <plotino> gnome shell or gnome panel
[10:55] <dr_willis> Sterist:  what kind of graphs
[10:55] <groundnuty> Sterist: graphviz
[10:55] <theadmin> dr_willis: It has a heckload of dependencies
[10:55] <Pumpkin-> graphviz may not be exactly what you want. If you mean x/y plot type graphs, it almost certainly isn't. If you mean connections of nodes graphs, it is.
[10:55] <dr_willis> !info xplot
[10:55] <karl-augustt> since I install my ubuntu , I can dectecte my wifi
[10:55] <Pumpkin-> I think xplot might be what you want for x-y type data
[10:56] <deej1976> gnuplot ?
[10:56] <karl-augustt> do you think something about?
[10:56] <dr_willis> the spreadsheet in libreoffice perhaps. can do graphs
[10:56] <dr_willis> i thik
[10:56] <plotino> im in crisys ...
[10:56] <plotino> i cannot installa gnome shell
[10:56] <theadmin> dr_willis: Calc can, but it's not really intended for that, it's too powerful.
[10:57] <plotino> i can ping my router but no dns resolv with that shit of network manager
[10:57] <plotino> i have static IP
[10:57] <plotino> how to regain internet connection?
[10:57] <dr_willis> can you ping <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[10:58] <theadmin> dr_willis: (s)he has no internet, so nope
[10:58] <plotino> what is that?
[10:58] <dr_willis> googles dns server
[10:59] <plotino> i have tried to manually set the file resolv.conf
[10:59] <plotino> but nothing to do
[10:59] <plotino> i dont like the new update system of ubuntu :(
[10:59] <plotino> he left you without internet just for update
[10:59] <jasonmchristos> i asked you a question
[11:00] <jasonmchristos> day 7 what happens ?
[11:00] <plotino> to me?
[11:00] <theadmin> plotino: What does "ifconfig" show?
[11:00] <plotino> show the static IP correctly
[11:00] <dr_willis> new? same as its always been aş far as ive noticed
[11:00] <plotino> the problem is in resolving dns
[11:00] <theadmin> plotino: Oh, okay. Run this: echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf
[11:00] <GeorgeJ> How does one auto-mount a ntfs partition at startup? Is there any GUI, or should I just go into fstab?
[11:01] <dr_willis> which is why i asked if you can ping <IP_ADDRESS> plotino ....
[11:01] <theadmin> GeorgeJ: fstab. Oh, and the type is "ntfs-3g", not ntfs
[11:01] <plotino> ping <IP_ADDRESS> is replying dr_willis
[11:01] <Chinta> (Newbie here) Does anyone know of a possible reason why I fail to connect via Pidgin to an IRC server different than this one? The error message is "connection timed out". I wonder what the problem could be, anyone?
[11:01] <jasonmchristos> dont use <IP_ADDRESS> it has blocks against racism
[11:01] <GeorgeJ> theadmin: ntfs-3g?
[11:01] <theadmin> GeorgeJ: Yeah
[11:01] <jasonmchristos> use your local isp nameservers
[11:01] <sven_> jasonmchristos, details about the blocks?
[11:01] <GeorgeJ> theadmin: Hmm, I'm unfamilliar with this, what does the 3g stand for?
[11:01] <theadmin> jasonmchristos: lolwut, no it doesn't, you have no idea what you're talking about
[11:02] <theadmin> GeorgeJ: ntfs-3g is the read-write NTFS driver, "ntfs" filesystem type assumes the standard read-only one
[11:02] <GeorgeJ> theadmin: Oh I see, thanks!
[11:02] <plotino> so dr_willis
[11:02] <Andy80> test
[11:02] <theadmin> plotino: Would you run that command I gave and try again?
[11:02] <dr_willis> plotino:  so try setting your dns server to be <IP_ADDRESS> like suggested earlier
[11:03] <plotino> where ? in resolv.conf
[11:03] <plotino> ?
[11:03] <sven_> Chinta, it seems it can be resolved, but not connected. are you behind some firewall possibly?
[11:03] <jasonmchristos> sven_: just going to have to try yourself post a racism webpage and see if it gets blocked on <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:03] <theadmin> jasonmchristos: You're saying some nonsense. Please stop.
[11:04] <plotino> theadmin ifconfig?
[11:04] <theadmin> plotino: echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf
[11:04] <plotino> ok
[11:04] <jasonmchristos> nupe dont use <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:05] <jasonmchristos> use your local isp's nameservers
[11:05] <theadmin> jasonmchristos: Stop. being. an. IDIOT!
[11:05] <Chinta> sven_: Thanks for answering. Yes, I guess so. I am using an open network at the university. But the funny thing is that I can connect to THIS server.
[11:05] <jasonmchristos> and get to know the kids that work there
[11:05] <theadmin> !ops | jasonmchristos is being a troll, please, someone, get rid of it >.<
[11:05] <sven_> jasonmchristos, i just tried it with b&h and it resolves just like any other dns, so while there are good reasons not to use <IP_ADDRESS> this is certainly not one of them
[11:05] <theadmin> !ops | jasonmchristos is being a troll, please, someone, get rid of it
[11:05] <jasonmchristos> no im telling you the truth
[11:05] <ikonia> ok
[11:05] <jasonmchristos> they tried to block alex jones
[11:06] <Jonii> Hey, anyone have any idea as to why is my Ubuntu 11.10 automatically moving different windows to unreachable places, so that they are barely visible at all(you can see edge of them in the far end of some workspace)
[11:06] <plotino> theadmin thanks
[11:06] <sven_> Chinta, its the decision of your firewall admin where you can connect to and where not... maybe he hangs here himself :p
[11:06] <plotino> now it is working
[11:06] <theadmin> plotino: Hey no problem, GLaD to help
[11:06] <Jonii> I am not moving them there, they just somewhy go there
[11:06] <jasonmchristos> they said he was a bad guy
[11:06] <plotino> can you explain me the secret?
[11:06] <ikonia> jasonmchristos: stop now
[11:06] <ikonia> jasonmchristos: your only warning
[11:06] <jasonmchristos> said his website was racist
[11:06] <jasonmchristos> ok ikonia
[11:06] <theadmin> plotino: The secret? We just set your nameserver to Google's public DNS
[11:06] <dr_willis> plotino:  its not getting your dns servers.. if you are using static ip. set a static dns if you want
[11:06] <jasonmchristos> ill stop
[11:06] <theadmin> plotino: You could as well have ran "sudo dhcpcd" to set it to your ISP's nameservers I suppose.
[11:07] <Chinta> sven_: LOL. Well, I guess I should then really sit and study and look for procrastination elsewhere. Have a nice week!
[11:07] <jasonmchristos> just tell everyone to use <IP_ADDRESS> when thier local isp provides it
[11:07] <Mrokii> exit
[11:07] <Mrokii> oops
[11:07] <plotino> mm
[11:07] <plotino> and tell me
[11:07] <Jonii> Say, I have my workspaces in default setting, 2x2 square. I just had to get back my terminal that only had very small portion of it's lower part visible on the uppermost part of top right workspace :/
[11:07] <plotino> theadmin why my usual DNS didnt work?
[11:07] <dr_willis> my isp dns has other spammy issues.. so yes.. i use <IP_ADDRESS> instead of theirs
[11:08] <Jonii> Just a moment ago, before pressing alt+tab, it was located in lower right workspace, right around middle of it
[11:08] <sven_> keep feeding the google :p
[11:08] <theadmin> dr_willis: It wasn't set
[11:08] <dr_willis> plotino:  could be the router dident get the right info. or they are dow
[11:08] <theadmin> Oops
[11:08] <plotino> mm
[11:08] <theadmin> plotino: Yeah, could be they're down, or it wasn't set, or who knows what
[11:08] <plotino> strange because im using that dns on this machine now
[11:08] <plotino> anyway
[11:08] <plotino> i have fix one of the  problem
[11:08] <dr_willis> plotino:  your use of static ip may mean you dident set a dns...
[11:09] <plotino> yes i do
[11:09] <plotino> in the resolv.conf
[11:09] <plotino> but it didnt work
[11:09] <plotino> now it's working
[11:09] <plotino> ok
[11:09] <dr_willis> and that got overwriten by the network manager.,,,
[11:09] <sven_> plotino, use "dig ibm.com @ANY-IP" to check if ANY-IP does resolve stuff for you...
[11:09] <plotino> anyway actually im using network manager or not?
[11:09] <dr_willis> set the ip/dns in network manager. o
[11:09] <gunfire007> if i want to contribute in helping unity wht should i do >
[11:10] <plotino> i have done also
[11:10] <plotino> i have use nm.applet
[11:10] <theadmin> plotino: Possibly not, networkmanager doesn't care for resolv.conf
[11:10] <JapyDooge> gunfire007: apply at the unity project
[11:10] <dr_willis> double check it. ;) could be a typo
[11:10] <plotino> because it was not sohowing auto in unity
[11:10] <gunfire007> JapyDooge: ok
[11:10] <plotino> i dont like unity
[11:10] <JapyDooge> gunfire007: http://unity.ubuntu.com/getinvolved/
[11:10] <JapyDooge> :-)
[11:10] <plotino> so to get back notification area
[11:11] <plotino> i have to install gnomne-shell??
[11:11] <Blues-Man> hi
[11:11] <dr_willis> plotino:  notification area for what?
[11:11] <theadmin> plotino: I suggest you go with xfce if you liked gnome2
[11:11] <Blues-Man> do you know which file is used by Unity in order to get Startup Applications to run at startup?
[11:11] <dr_willis> i have indicator applets here for most things. theres docks with areas for the older apps that dont use the indicator applet method.
[11:12] <plotino> mm
[11:12] <Mrokii> Hello. How can I list filenames in a directory with a leading asterisk (so I can look for filenames where the beginning is variable).
[11:12] <theadmin> Mrokii: ls *whatever
[11:12] <theadmin> Mrokii: Simple eh
[11:13] <theadmin> Mrokii: Or, well, ls /path/to/dir/*whatever
[11:13] <karl-augustt> you can make more with ls -al
[11:13] <nachos> i dont understand why they shipped it with a version of gcc that works with nothing
[11:14] <ikonia> nachos: gcc in ubuntu 11.10 works fine
[11:14] <nachos> *shrugs*
[11:15] <dr_willis> not heard of any gcc issues in this channel that i recall..
[11:15] <Mrokii> theadmin: sorry for asking, it wasn't working like that before (or maybe I did something wrong).
[11:15] <theadmin> Mrokii: Well, that only works in bash, I'm not sure it works with other shells
[11:15] <Jonii> Anyone?
[11:16] <dr_willis> anyone what?
[11:16] <deej1976> !ask | Jonii
[11:17] <Jonii> I asked a question already, but sure, I can replicate it again
[11:17] <Jonii> Hey, anyone have any idea as to why is my Ubuntu 11.10 automatically moving different windows to unreachable places, so that they are barely visible at all(you can see edge of them in the far end of some workspace)
[11:17] <Jonii> I am not moving them there, they just somewhy go there
[11:17] <Jonii> Say, I have my workspaces in default setting, 2x2 square. I just had to get back my terminal that only had very small portion of it's lower part visible on the uppermost part of top right workspace :/
[11:17] <Jonii> Just a moment ago, before pressing alt+tab, it was located in lower right workspace, right around middle of it
[11:18] <Mariorocks1> How well will ubuntu linux run on a 1.65Ghz 400MB harddrive with 2GB of ram installed in the memory slots on a desktop computer?
[11:18] <Mariorocks1> Graphics is 2400xp
[11:18] <dr_willis> so it jumped from the middle of the screen to the top tight?
[11:18] <Jonii> mariorocks!, is that 400MB harddrive right?
[11:18] <Mariorocks1> yes
, on 400MB not well, if at all
[11:18] <theadmin> Mariorocks1: It won't, Ubuntu requirs 6GB to even install
[11:19] <Jonii> Or 400GB?
[11:19] <dr_willis> heh.. an old hd..
[11:19] <theadmin> Mariorocks1: Try, hm... I have no idea what to suggest you. SliTaZ maybe?
[11:19] <dr_willis> tiny core linux = 10mb
[11:19] <theadmin> Or that
, how do you have a 400MB hard drive lying around?
[11:20] <dr_willis> time to spend $30 and get a bigger hd...
[11:20] <ksx4system> theadmin: LOL 6Gb, you can do it under 1Gb (bare bones, no X, no desktop env.)
[11:20] <Mariorocks1> i am thinking about updating it in 2012 to a 1TB harddrive emachine computer
[11:20] <theadmin> ksx4system: The desktop Ubuntu does
, wait wait, 400MB to 1TB??
[11:20] <theadmin> ksx4system: I'm not talking about mininstall or derivatives
[11:20] <JapyDooge> Mariorocks1: not Ubuntu, but other distributions can run fine in 400MB
[11:20] <dr_willis> i run my whole system off a 32gb usb flash. ;)
[11:20] <Mariorocks1> retro0 i was talking buying a new computer
[11:21] <Mariorocks1> :P
[11:21] <Mrokii> Does anybody know where (besides mimeapps.list) I can find data about which application is used to open certain filetypes? For weeks now if I connect a smart-card (via a reader) the folder is opened in gedit instead of nautilus showing the folder. The same happens when I try to open the trashcan via cairo-dock.
[11:21] <ksx4system> theadmin: I think about minimal CD
[11:21] <nachos> whats the name of the firewall app in 11.10?
[11:21] <theadmin> nachos: ufw
[11:21] <dr_willis> !firewall
, ah ok.  But still, I'm surprised you've got a 400MB hard drive.  My first computer was a 486 with a 170MB hard drive, and that was 20 years ago
[11:21] <retr0> so  I'm surprised you've got a hard drive that size
[11:21] <Mariorocks1> i got the computer back in 2003
[11:22] <Jonii> dr_willis: yeah. It was barely visible anymore. For some reason, I haven't seen any window disappear completely, there's always some small trace left of them in some corner or side
[11:22] <zamba> hi there.. i have a ubuntu host running on vmware.. it uses lvm for its root fs.. i have now changed the size of the disk allocated from vmware.. how do i then resize the root partition?
[11:23] <dr_willis> jonii it could be some compix plugin/keycombo..
, Honestly, if you've got a 1GB flash drive lying around you could run it off that if you really wanted to.  It would probably run a little slow, but it would be doable
[11:23] <Mariorocks1> I am a ubuntu geek :3
[11:23] <retr0> you just can't install it, it has to be the live cd
[11:23] <dr_willis> home on flash.. / on the hd..
[11:23] <Mariorocks1> i have version 9.10, 10,04, 10,10, 11.04, 11.10 :P
[11:23] <dr_willis> well /boot on the hd..
[11:23] <Jonii> dr_willis: but as far as I know, the only shortcut to moving windows is ctrl+alt+arrow, which is unable to do anything like that
[11:24] <Mariorocks1> those versions are all on different live cds
[11:24] <dr_willis> jonii the grid plugin can do more i think
[11:24] <mndo> Mrokii, i can find that info on nautilus
[11:24] <Jonii> What's that, and is it installed by default?
, yeah, if you run it on a flash drive you'll get data retention which means it'll save your files and settings, so it might be an option
[11:25] <dr_willis> no idea Jonii  check the ccsm tool and see whats enabled.
[11:25] <dr_willis> !ccsm
[11:26] <Mariorocks1> one thing i think is awesome about ubuntu is the wobbly windows :P
[11:26] <dr_willis> Mariorocks1:  its cool for 50 sec.....
[11:26] <Jonii> You find that in software center?
[11:26] <Mrokii> mndo: I guess there is some stupidly secretive file somewhere that defines additional file-associations. It's really annoying how chaotic that system is.
[11:26] <deej1976> Mariorocks1 : you should look at http://www.panticz.de/MultiBootUSB
[11:27] <dr_willis> jonii yes. the bot gave the command to install it
, that's not just an ubuntu thing, you can get it on other distributions...it's a compiz thing
[11:27] <Mariorocks1> ok
[11:27] <Mariorocks1> Thanks
[11:27] <Mariorocks1> I'll try the usb flash drive boot of ubuntu. :)
[11:28] <dr_willis> its an 'show your friends, then disable it when they leave' thing.  ;)
[11:28] <dr_willis> wiggly windows made my wife  puke. ;()
[11:29] <esperegu_> anyone has a working xorg.conf for dual head intel integrated graphics (2600K cpu)
[11:29] <dr_willis> shd did like the zoom feature of compiz
[11:32] <Mrokii> /exit
[11:32] <gry> Hello! How do I show input locale indicator in gnome3 fallback, Ubuntu 11.10? It was in 11.04 but disappeared after the upgrade. I tried a web search without success. Thanks in advance.
[11:32] <gry> (Input locales switch ok but the indicator is missing.)
[11:33] <mndo> Mrokii, yes it's kind of a mess.. besides using nautilus and mimeapps.list i don't any other way
[11:34] <Jonii> also, for some reason menus and writing tends to stop responding, especially in firefox
[11:34] <Jonii> That is, programs randomly become entirely unresponsive to some specific input. The last time this happened, 15 minutes ago, firefox become unresponsive to text manipulation(marking, writing, having cursor in it), but you could still switch between tabs etc
[11:36] <Jonii> The earlier case I remember was how firefox became totally unresponsive to attempts to open menus from upper left menu bar thing
[11:39] <Lucio85> ciao a tutti
[11:39] <julianhille> hi. im creating a little gateway server with ubuntu at the moment. and i need a way to log every http request. is there something which doesnt require any a server like squid? cause squid is not an option due to some restrictions.
[11:39] <Lucio85> !list
[11:40] <julianhille> i only want to log destination time and ip
[11:42] <gry> ...
[11:43] <gunfire007> for my college project i want to make a derivative of  ubuntu so for that what should i follow
[11:43] <gunfire007> it would be very small working distro that's it.. nothing more than that..
[11:43] <iceroot> !remaster | gunfire007
[11:43] <Thelmaria> julianhille: You need to make a note of all the http requests passing through, you can use an apache forward proxy, then use the apache logs. You will, however, need to enforce the use of the proxy on the network (it's not transparent like squid could be, although i could be wrong).
[11:44] <JapyDooge> gunfire007: i would start here: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization :-)
[11:45] <dr_willis> just what we need  more ubuntu variants. ;)
[11:46] <deej1976> phew
[11:46] <gunfire007> thanks friends :)
[11:47] <gunfire007> iceroot: the 3 rd link is not working..
[11:47] <tarvid> after upgrade to Oneiric and updates DVDs don't mount
[11:48] <gunfire007> iceroot: now it's fine :)
[11:48] <gry> tarvid, Any error you are getting?

[11:51] <iceroot> gunfire007: ok :)
[11:51] <gry> tarvid, Does the problem persist after a reboot?
[11:51] <tarvid> may be an upstream kernel problem
[11:51] <tarvid> yes a reboot does not help
[11:52] <gry> tarvid, what's ``uname -a'' output?
[11:52] <tewea> just iam using ubuntu10.04 and  i coudnt install adobe flash player?
[11:52] <tarvid> and I don't understand "sr0" should I change the fstab entry

[11:52] <theadmin> tarvid: /dev/cdrom is normally just a link to /dev/sr0
[11:53] <tarvid> thanks theadmin, that is indeed true
[11:53] <deej1976> tewea : have you enabled the partner Sources?
[11:54] <tewea> deej1976:yes

[12:00] <CarlFK> dyd: find / -type f -exec grep macro {} \;
[12:01] <theadmin> Nope.
[12:01] <CarlFK> dyd: find (start dir)  (files) (look at the found file for macro)
[12:01] <theadmin> sudo find / -type f -exec grep macro '{}' \;
[12:01] <CarlFK> theadmin: good catch
[12:01] <theadmin> Quotes are important here, files may have spaces in the name
[12:02] <CarlFK> oh right.  I shoujld go back to bed
[12:02] <geirha> theadmin: The quotes around {} are not needed. find does not execute the command in a shell.
[12:03] <theadmin> geirha: It doesn't? Hm, well...
[12:03] <dyd> thanks
[12:05] <dyd> i receive this error... find / -type f -exec grep macro {} \;

[12:05] <geirha> dyd: Yes, it'll have problems with special files like that. So you may either want to avoid decending into directories like /proc and /sys, or just redirect stderr to /dev/null
[12:06] <theadmin> plotino: You can't, gnome2 is no longer supported
[12:06] <Sidewinder1> !nounity | plotino
[12:06] <geirha> dyd: -xdev should help.  find / -xdev -type f -exec grep -F macro {} \;
[12:07] <plotino> but i dontn have notification area
[12:07] <plotino> no systray
[12:07] <plotino> i cant manage network-manger or truecryte once the have been open
[12:07] <dyd> geirha: thanks
[12:08] <plotino> how  to have systray in unity?
[12:08] <plotino> neither nm-applet is working now
[12:08] <nixmaniack> does anyone has this issue in notification bar at the bottom? http://imagebin.org/182950
[12:09] <dyd> geirha: this will find any folders named "marco", right? sudo find /media/HDD -type d -exec grep macro '{}' \;
[12:09] <theadmin> dyd: No, this will not work at all
[12:09] <theadmin> dyd: grep searches inside files
[12:09] <theadmin> dyd: What you want is: sudo find /media/hdd -type d -iname '*macro*' -print
[12:11] <dyd> theadmin: ok, and this will search in all subfolders too?
[12:11] <theadmin> dyd: Correct, if you want to disable that add "-maxdepth 1"
[12:11] <dyd> theadmin: thank you
[12:11] <conntrack> haha fudging port scans and snort is pissing me off now
[12:17] <dyd> thank you all cya
[12:18] <nixmaniack> anyone gnome3 expert around?
[12:19] <deej1976> !ask | nixmaniack
[12:19] <nixmaniack> deej1976, already asked :) didn;t get any replies so trying get attention!
[12:19] <nixmaniack> does anyone has this issue in notification bar at the bottom? http://imagebin.org/182950
[12:21] <skumara> nixmaniack: Is that jupiter icon?
[12:21] <nixmaniack> skumara, yes
[12:22] <skumara> i don't have this problem.
[12:22] <nixmaniack> skumara, but i get this kind of notifications for xchat also.. they are not getting stacked
[12:22] <bencc> is there a dummy mta I can use?
[12:22] <nixmaniack> or there isn't any way to read them all

[12:24] <os_> hi
[12:24] <awiden> Hi! Anyone else having problems with apt-get
[12:24] <dudism> yes
[12:25] <dudism> i got problems with apt-get on btrfs root
[12:25] <os_> i have a problem with xen 4.1.
[12:25] <dudism> fascinating
[12:25] <os_> linu-generic-pae is unstable with it
[12:25] <dudism> install a other kernel
[12:26] <awiden> anyone have a solution to apt-get servers being down?
[12:26] <gigenieks> Guys I want to make dual-boot Xubuntu and XP (xp for heroes of might and magic 3) I have 1 hdd, how should i continue?
[12:26] <tomodachi> awiden: you can switch to some other mirror
[12:26] <JapyDooge> gigenieks: heroes of might and magic 3 works pretty okay on Wine :)
[12:26] <os_> dudism,  how?
[12:26] <vcastro4ab> hello
[12:26] <dudism> http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[12:26] <vcastro4ab> no hes is
[12:26] <vcastro4ab> xD
[12:27] <awiden> tomodachi: I'll see if I can find a list of mirrors...
[12:27] <awiden> thanks
[12:27] <vcastro4ab> it is caca
[12:27] <gigenieks> JapyDooge: when I launch it, screen goes black (doesnt have directx or something..)
[12:27] <gigenieks> I hear everything
[12:27] <BluesKaj> gigenieks, install XP first on a ntfs partition and then make an ext3/4 partition and install ubuntu on that
[12:27] <JapyDooge> gigenieks: you have to install directx in the wine bottle also :) if you like i can find you a guide
[12:27] <gigenieks> but dont see what is goin on
[12:27] <_et> I'm trying to find out the list of packages that are installed by default on a install CD ..
[12:28] <eric357> Good day!  Is there a backport of PHP >= 5.2.3 to Dapper LTS?  I can't find it if it's out there...
[12:28] <gigenieks> JapyDooge: I would appreaciate it
[12:28] <gigenieks> I have Xubuntu 11.04.
[12:28] <crizzy> eric357: dapper is EOL already
[12:29] <JapyDooge> gigenieks: do you know what version of HoMM3 it is? :)
[12:29] <eric357> crizzy: Yeah, I know.  customer wants wordpress update NOW and server ugrade in January.  I thought I'd ask
[12:29] <julianhille> hi. im creating a little gateway server with ubuntu at the moment. and i need a way to log every http request. is there something which doesnt require any a server like squid? cause squid is not an option due to some restrictions.
[12:29] <julianhille> i only want to log destination time and ip
[12:30] <crizzy> eric357: i still have one dapper server running too, for being too lazy to migrate it :P i've compiled php myself on it
[12:30] <sagaci> hi, when I do a sudo apt-get update on my oneiric system, I get the following gpg errors: http://paste.ubuntu.com/730919/
[12:30] <gigenieks> JapyDooge: Complete (meaning it has both expansions: Shadow of death and  Armagedons Blade)
[12:30] <eric357> crizzy: Ah, now that's an idea!
[12:30] <JapyDooge> ahh k
[12:30] <JapyDooge> cehcking =)
[12:31] <crizzy> eric357: you'll save a lot of headache by simply telling your customer, sorry no can do, too old server and that's it =)
[12:31] <eric357> crizzy: Agreed... writing that email right now
[12:32] <os_> dudism, there is only (linux-generic images)
[12:32] <os_> i need pae
[12:33] <os_> for xen
[12:33] <skumara> sagaci: http://en.newinstance.it/2009/06/22/the-following-signatures-were-invalid-badsig-40976eaf437d05b5-ubuntu-archive-automatic-signing-key/
[12:33] <JapyDooge> gigenieks: you might want to install direct x first, and then homm3 :) but according to this page you only need to add some files to make multiplayer possible: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=2628
[12:34] <BluesKaj> sagaci, you have a repos that has an unrecognized signature key, it's quite common with ppas or special application repos
[12:34] <JapyDooge> gigenieks: alternative is using Crossover:Games
[12:34] <JapyDooge> http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/name/?app_id=2134
[12:34] <JapyDooge> but not free (Except when you betatest for them)
[12:35] <gigenieks> JapyDooge: I don't need to install homm3 I have to extract it (I already gave it executable bit, so it runs) and I dont need multiplayer just single player. :)
[12:35] <JapyDooge> ahhh gigenieks then you need to install the appropiate directx version in wine :) after that it should run :)
[12:36] <JapyDooge> i think DirectX 7
[12:37] <sagaci> skumara, thanks, that solved it
[12:37] <skumara> sagaci: :)
[12:37] <gigenieks> JapyDooge: can' t I just install DirectX 9.0c?
[12:37] <gigenieks> http://ask.broathersoft.com/how-to-put-directx-9-on-ubuntu-88455.html
[12:37] <JapyDooge> might work also, normally DirectX is backwards compatible, but some game developers fail to understand that and require specific versions
[12:44] <pwuertz> hi, how can I configure unity2d? my gfx hardware is supported poorly and with this blur effect the main menu needs multiple seconds to open. Is there no way to configure it?
[12:44] <Besogon> Hi!! People, can you tell me, if 1.7Gb RAM ids enough for Ubuntu 11.10-64-bit????
[12:44] <crizzy> Besogon: yes it is
[12:44] <Besogon> Ithanks
[12:45] <theadmin> pwuertz: Log out, chose "Ubuntu 2D" in the sessions list, log back in
[12:45] <crizzy> theadmin: he is using unity2d
[12:46] <theadmin> Oh, well, I think you might want ccsm then
[12:46] <theadmin> pwuertz: ^
[12:46] <pwuertz> theadmin, ccsm does not seem to have any effect on unity2d
[12:47] <Besogon> crizzy: thank.. I'm writting from it which was started from USB-stick.. It seems to work slow. Hope It will be better if I install it on hard drive. Could it work faster from hard drive then from Flash or it it's gona be the same???
[12:47] <theadmin> pwuertz: Oh, okay... Sorry.
[12:47] <theadmin> Besogon: It will be a lot faster
[12:47] <crizzy> Besogon: most likely it'll be faster when you get to install proper gfx drivers
[12:47] <Besogon> ok
[12:47] <theadmin> Besogon: Live systems are never fast enough
[12:47] <soreau> pwuertz: What is the output of 'ps ax|egrep "metacity|compiz|unity"|grep -v grep'?
[12:47] <pwuertz> theadmin, ccsm is for configuring compiz, which is not used in unity2d
[12:47] <Besogon> OK. Thank to all
[12:49] <pwuertz> soreau, I'm not using this system right now, so I cant say.. but I found some small configure tools which enable me to "activate/deactivate" compositing.. but this had no effect on the blur feature
[12:49] <pwuertz> soreau, so I guess metacity or unity
[12:49] <soreau> pwuertz: We can't really help you if you're not currently using the system
[12:49]  * conntrack rules are buggered
[12:50] <pramod> hai... how to make my reliance netconnect+ modem in UBUNTU 10.10
[12:50] <pwuertz> soreau, well, you could tell me how to deactivate effects like blur on unity2d
[12:50] <soreau> pwuertz: Not without knowing what's providing the blur feature
[12:50] <pramod> can any one help me please
[12:50] <pwuertz> soreau, its not compiz
[12:51] <soreau> pwuertz: Well I'm not going to sit here and speculate
[12:51] <soreau> pwuertz: compiz can run in ubuntu2D session
[12:52] <pwuertz> soreau, as i said.. I tried ccsm and disabled blur.. or changing the icon sizes.. it had no effect on unity
[12:52] <soreau> pwuertz: chances are if you simply run 'metacity --replace' from Alt+F2 run dialog, blur will be deactivated
[12:52] <pramod> can any one help me in running my reliance netconnect+ work in ubuntu 10.10
[12:53] <pramod> can any one help me in running my reliance netconnect+ work in ubuntu 10.10

[12:54] <MorbidChimp> can anyone help me with a bash problem, I've checked google and forums but appear to be doing what I wish correctly. Its basicly just assignment of values to an array, which works under CentOS 6 but not on Ubuntu
[12:54] <jtr__> pramod: dont spam
[12:54] <jtr__> pramod: ya i can
[12:54] <jtr__> pramod: tell me , whats the problem
[12:54] <soreau> MorbidChimp: Try #bash
[12:55] <MorbidChimp> cheers soreau
[12:55] <pramod> jtr_: my computer is not detecting modem
[12:56] <jtr__> pramod: try lsusb in command line and tell me if you see the name of your mobile company in the list
[12:56] <mao> what is finger requests？
[12:56] <mandla> MorbidChimp, I dont understand your question.
[12:56] <pramod> yes i can see it is showing Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
[12:57] <jtr__> pramod: good
[12:57] <pramod> jtr_: yes i can see it is showing Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
[12:57] <theadmin> Huawei modems need usb_modeswitch to get them to work
[12:57] <theadmin> Most of em anyway
[12:57] <jtr__> apt-get usb_modeswitvh
[12:57] <os_> hi
[12:57] <jtr__> theadmin: :)
[12:57] <Wolfer1391> help in italian pleace ?
[12:57] <jtr__> pramod: got it ?
[12:58] <pramod> jtr_: nope
[12:58] <pramod> i tried it too
[12:58] <os_> how to get a linux-generic-server-image 3.1?
[12:58] <jtr__> pramod: execute the command 'sudo apt-get install usb-modeswitch' , did you?
[12:59] <skumara> jtr_ right click your nm-applet and chose edit connection - broadband - add and see you can see your modem
[12:59] <soreau> ! it | Wolfer1391
[13:00] <pramod> jtr_: i tried it too.. it says 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 348 not upgraded.
[13:00] <jtr__> pramod: means u already have it
[13:00] <jtr__> pramod: gimme a min
[13:00] <jtr__> pramod: http://veerasundar.com/blog/2010/06/how-to-make-reliance-netconnect-broadband-to-work-on-ubuntu-10-04/
[13:01] <pwuertz> soreau, ok, so unity 2d does use metacity... and no.. there seems to be no way of configuring it
[13:01] <pramod> jtr-: but mine is ubuntu 10.10
[13:01] <soreau> pwuertz: In that case, try starting compiz with 'compiz --replace' and see if things are better
[13:02] <jtr__> pramod: the wvdial method must work for 10.10...try it, worked for me in the past.
[13:02] <soreau> pwuertz: alternatively, try looking in gconf-editor to edit keys in /apps/metacity/*
[13:02] <pwuertz> soreau, ok, I didn't even think about using compiz on a machine without proper gfx support.. but thanks.. I'll try that then
[13:03] <wolfmitchell> I cant start Unity...
[13:03] <dr_willis> from what i gather in the next release (or updated to compiz) its somehow supposed to work eventually with non-3d acellerated hardware.
[13:03] <theadmin> I don't think gnome3 uses metacity
[13:03] <theadmin> I thought it uses mutter
[13:03] <wolfmitchell> It says I don't meet the requirements for it
[13:03] <dr_willis> gnome-3 uses mutter i hear. :)
[13:03] <dr_willis> but ive no proof of that. :) i imagine it can run on compiz also.
[13:04] <dr_willis> gnome-shell --replace
[13:04] <charlywaya> hi everybody
[13:04] <wolfmitchell> And Gnome with graphical effects wont let me open menus
[13:04] <pramod> jtr_: but it is not showing my modem over there and once i tried it too... it did not work :(
[13:05] <wolfmitchell> 2.1 second lag :O
[13:05] <os_> hi guys
[13:06] <wolfmitchell> Now it is 17.4s!

[13:07] <warm> Hi, I am installing a software that is not in the official sources, and I want to know how to build dependences for that package?
[13:07] <charlywaya> is it possible to build a .deb package for 64 bit even if an application is built to use 32 bit libraries (third-party libraries available only in 32 bit version)?
[13:07] <pramod> can any one help me to make my reliance netconnect+ work in ubuntu 10.10
[13:08] <dudism> read the manual warm
[13:08] <pramod> can any one help me to make my reliance netconnect+ work in ubuntu 10.10
[13:08] <jtr__> pramod: did you make Stupid Mode = 1 in the wvdial.conf?
[13:08] <jtr__> pramod: did you reach that far ?
[13:09] <jtr__> pramod: and what is the output of wvdial ?
[13:09] <warm> dudism, of that package? The README only tells me to type: ./configure  --prefix=/usr   , but it occurs that many packages not found.
[13:10] <pramod> jtr_: i gave this in gedit of wvdial...
[13:10] <pramod> [Dialer netconnect]
[13:10] <pramod> New PPPD = yes

[13:10] <plotino> hello
[13:10] <plotino> ok
[13:10] <jtr__> pramod: don't write here use pastebin.com :)
[13:10] <soreau> warm: Most standard dependencies are in ubuntu repos, provided by packages suffixed with -dev
[13:11] <plotino> i dont get to have the icon of truecrypt on systray of ubuntu 11.10
[13:11] <Sidewinder1> !pastebin | pramod
[13:12] <pramod> jtr_: then what might be the problem???
[13:12] <jtr__> pramod: are u using gnome-ppp? or just wvdial?
[13:13] <pramod> jtr_: i tried both of them..  in gnome-ppp, it says modem is not detected
[13:13] <hipodilski> anyone has used some linux video / audio streaming software for more than 3000+ users
[13:14] <jtr__> pramod: add this line to your wvdial.conf - 'Stupid Mode = 1'
[13:14] <pramod> ya its already there under phone=#777
[13:15] <pramod> jtr_: ya its already there under phone=#777
[13:15] <warm> soreau, yes, I know that, but do I have to install those required packages myself? for there are many in need.
[13:15] <jtr__> pramod: ok, this is strange, worked for me and my friend uses it too, gimme some time to figure it out
[13:15] <tomodachi> hipodilski: well google does, with youtube, to some extent
[13:15] <soreau> warm: You can install them from ubuntu repos if they're available and yes, you have to do it yourself (as you're building software yourself)
[13:16] <pramod> jtr_: ok man....
[13:16] <muv> can anyone point me to a primer on ubuntu and sound? no gnome/gui stuff, i want the under the hood perspective. background: i have basically hard-migrated my home dir and cant get sound to work after boot... i've fiddled a bit with alsamixer but to no avail
[13:16] <jtr__> pramod: please check the /tty/USB--- line is actually your device as seen under lsusb
[13:17] <warm> soreau, Ok. I will try it.
[13:18] <jtr__> theadmin: can you help pramod ? I am out of ideas
[13:18] <soreau> warm: If the package were in the repos, you could use apt-get build-dep package-name to install the dependencies
[13:18] <theadmin> jtr__: Don't really feel like it, sorry
[13:18] <Sidewinder1> !sound | muv
[13:18] <Sidewinder1> muv, I hopr that helped. :-)
[13:18] <Sidewinder1> hope, even.
[13:18] <jtr__> theadmin: no problems :)
[13:18] <pramod> jtr_: nope it is not seen in lsusb
[13:19] <jtr__> theadmin: is there a way to see which device is which /ttyUSB ?
[13:19] <gigenieks> How can I divide my hdd so i can install xp on seperate partition on same hdd and then insert LiveCD to fix GRUB?
[13:19] <muv> Sidewinder, ubottu: thanks
[13:19] <warm> soreau, ah, the problem is it is not in the repos, and ppa is not available here for some reason.
[13:20] <mathi> hi
[13:20] <theadmin> jtr__: Umm... None that I know of. However! Verify that the modem is NOT creating /dev/sr* devices, some Huawei modems are misrecognized as CD drives
[13:20] <mathi> I installed Ubuntu 11.10, I would like to know which VNC server is the best to use? I's use UltraVNC from windows to connect to my Linux server ?
[13:21] <Sidewinder1> gigenieks, Perhaps this will help: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/installing
[13:21] <jtr__> pramod: can u pastebin be the output of lsusb ?
[13:21] <Sidewinder1> muv, My pleasure.
[13:21] <compdoc> mathi, vnc4server works well. And clipbaord sharing works by running vncconfig
[13:21] <compdoc> *clipboard
[13:22] <soreau> warm: yea so you have to resolve the dependencies yourself. 'apt-cache pkg-name|grep dev' should help you find most of them
[13:22] <pramod> jtr__: the process is still running in the terminal!!!!!
[13:22] <jtr__> pramod: which one ?
[13:22] <jtr__> pramod: wvdial ?
[13:22] <jtr__> pramod: then try opening the web-page ( don't tell me u didn't do that before )
[13:22] <marthjod> !sound
[13:23] <przemo_li> any linux & programming channel?
[13:23] <pramod> jtr__: which webpage???
[13:23] <gigenieks> Sidewinder1: it is complety unreated link
[13:23] <jtr__> pramod: any sir, just check if your internet is working
[13:23] <Sidewinder1> gigenieks, Sorry, it was just a "shot in the dark".
[13:24] <darshan_> how to run settings-tester.pl script
[13:24] <darshan_>  ?
[13:24] <gigenieks> In other words: is it safe to use gparted and make another partition of one big partition??
[13:24] <pramod> jtr__: ya its working....
[13:24] <jtr__> pramod: jesus
[13:24] <usr13_> gigenieks: Backup your data, .... but, I've never lost anything.
[13:24] <jtr__> pramod: the terminal process is like your internet connection, close the terminal to disconnect...it was working all the time :D
[13:25] <theadmin> Ah so if this is the problem
[13:25] <gigenieks> will gparted use free space to make that 2nd partition?
[13:25] <darshan_> how to run settings-tester.pl script ?
[13:25] <gigenieks> usr13: .
[13:25] <jpjacobs> Hi there! I want to add a server to xinetd.conf, without taking down other services it offers, how do I go about?
[13:25] <pramod> jtr__: now it is ok.. now say me what should i do
[13:25] <Sidewinder1> gigenieks, It should be; that being said, if you're gonna' shrink/resize any NTFS/fat32 partition, just make sure that you Defragment it first; at least twice.
[13:25] <theadmin> jtr__, pramod: In case you need to be able to close the terminal after wvdial is ran, run it like "wvdial &disown" or whatever
[13:26] <usr13_> gigenieks: Yes
[13:26] <jtr__> pramod: net working now ?
[13:26] <darshan_> command to run settings-tester.pl script ?
[13:26] <gigenieks> Sidewinder1: I have Xubuntu NOT Windows now.
[13:26] <usr13_> gigenieks: But you can just use fdisk for that.
[13:26] <Sidewinder1> gigenieks, OIC.
[13:26] <usr13_> ... to create a partition from freespace
[13:26] <gigenieks> usr13: I prefer gparted
[13:27] <pramod> jtr__: i am presntly using nokia phone modem to fix out the problem ...
[13:27] <jtr__> pramod: is your reliance netconnect working ?
[13:27] <usr13_> gigenieks: I'm just a CLI sort of person...
[13:28] <jpjacobs> would service xinetd reload do what I want
[13:28] <jpjacobs> ?
[13:29] <onre> jpjacobs, yes it should
[13:29] <jtr__> pramod: the way u connect using wvdial is run it in terminal and leave it, and then open the browser and work normally, if a web page doesn't open then you have a problem !
[13:29] <jpjacobs> onre: so without stopping other services?
[13:29] <onre> jpjacobs, yes, reload should do that.
[13:29] <przemo_li> irc channel for programming on ubuntu?
[13:29] <pramod> jtr__: ya it is working in windows.... when i connect it in windows, and restart to ubuntu without disconnecting there, then it is working in ubuntu too.. but when connected directly it is not working
[13:30] <gigenieks> usr13: I opened gparted with "gksudo gparted" and it has grey option "move / resize" huh?
[13:30] <usr13_> gigenieks: new  (I think)
[13:30] <gigenieks> Do i need to unmount (that option isnt greyed out)
[13:30] <jtr__> pramod: when you restart from windows to ubuntu - does the device not get disconnected ?
[13:31] <usr13_> gigenieks: fdisk is easier  ;)
[13:31] <pramod> jtr__: no... i did not disconnect..
[13:31] <Angelon> Victorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
[13:31] <Sidewinder1> gigenieks, Yes, unmount first.
[13:31] <jtr__> pramod: how can you restart without getting disconnected ????
[13:31] <Angelon> victor
[13:31] <Angelon> jhafgia
[13:31] <Angelon> jbnajsfga
[13:31] <Angelon> jfa
[13:31] <Angelon> bnfab
[13:31] <Angelon> YOOOOOOOOOO
[13:32] <gigenieks> Sidewinder1: I can't (that partions is on which is Xubuntu and it is ony partion on my computer) so i have to it from LiveCD..
[13:32] <gigenieks> as i see it
[13:32] <ikonia> Angelon: stop it - if you do it when you are unmuted you will be removed
[13:32] <gigenieks> *only
[13:32] <pramod> jtr__: jlt.. force shutdown
[13:32] <Sidewinder1> gigenieks, Yes, Live CD; I thought that's what you were using.. Sorry..
[13:32] <gigenieks> OK going to LIve CD.
[13:33] <usr13_> gigenieks: just use fdisk
[13:33] <Sidewinder1> Heh,.
[13:33] <usr13_> gigenieks: sudo fdisk /dev/sda   (where sda is the drive you want to create the new partition on)
[13:33] <jtr__> pramod: are u using a virtual machine ?
[13:34] <bhearsum> is it possible to disable the automatic monitor detection in ubuntu 11.10? it keeps doing the wrong thing and preventing me from fixing it =\
[13:34] <pramod> jtr__: no.. and what does it mean!!!
[13:35] <jtr__> pramod: leave it
[13:35] <jtr__> pramod: so when you restart to ubuntu u cannot connect right ?
[13:35] <jtr__> pramod: what happens when u try ?
[13:35] <jtr__> pramod: i mean using wvdial
[13:35] <mathi> compdoc, well it looks like ubunto 11.10 has a desktop sharing utility, I don't have to install anything
[13:36] <compdoc> mathi, yes, it allows you to share the desktop, but someone has to be logged in already
[13:36] <compdoc> logged into the console, I mean
[13:37] <jpjacobs> onre: apparently reloading alone does not start the new service, unfortunately
[13:37] <mathi> compdoc, so if the computer is idle, and session is locked, I can't connect ?
[13:37] <compdoc> if no one is logged into the console, you cannot connect
[13:37] <compdoc> its desktop sharing
[13:37] <pramod> jtr__: device is not detected.. it says.. WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60.. Warning: section [Dialer Defaults] does not exist in wvdial.conf.
[13:37] <jtr__> pramod: a virtual machine is just a piece of software that allows u to run an OS in just a window ( that means you could run ubuntu in a window in Windows7 os, or vice versa)
[13:38] <mathi> compdoc, well if I open a session and never logout, no problem?
[13:38] <compdoc> sure
[13:38] <Akiraa> I don't understand why the following if-statement loops forever http://pastesite.com/27845
[13:38] <jtr__> pramod: change the first line written in wvdial.conf and replace it by [Dialer Defaults]
[13:38] <muay-guy> hey guys, I have a question... I upgraded to 11.04 but if i enter the python shell its still 2.6.5 ... shouldn't it be 2.7?
[13:38] <jason00> Does anybody know if Rhythmbox is back in active development?
[13:39] <jtr__> muay-guy: you can try python2.7 instead of just python
[13:39] <Pumpkin-> Akiraa: you need to use "test", more commonly called as "[" in shell scripts.
[13:39] <pramod> jtr__: ya i did it.. what should i do after changing it?
[13:39] <jtr__> pramod: do the wvdial again
[13:40] <jtr__> pramod: must work this time
[13:40] <muay-guy> jtr__: its trhere but I had already installed it in 10.04 ... besides... when I try to repeat a command or something like that I get ^[[B^[[A^[[A^[[A
[13:40] <Akiraa> Pumpkin-: thanks
[13:40] <Pumpkin-> if [ x$do_shutdown = "yes" ]; then
[13:41] <pramod> jtr__: that warning is gone and now... Cannot open /dev/ttyUSB0: No such file or directory
[13:41] <Pumpkin-> I'd recommend that as well
[13:41] <jtr__> pramod: reconnect the modem and try again
[13:41] <Pumpkin-> as otherwise if $do_shutdown is unset, you would get an error
[13:41] <jtr__> muay-guy: repeat please
[13:41] <Pumpkin-> sorry
[13:41] <Pumpkin-> PM
[13:41] <muay-guy> jtr__: I don't remember how I had installed python2.7 but it wasn't properly built
[13:42] <jtr__> muay-guy: dpkg-reconfigure python2.7
[13:42] <pramod> jtr__: the same is the error.. i think i should reboot now!!! r8?
[13:42] <muay-guy> that's why when I'm in the python2.7 shell and I try to repeat a command with the "up arrow" key I get stuff like "^[[B^[[A^[[A^[[A"
[13:42] <jtr__> pramod: no , thats not the problem
[13:43] <jtr__> muay-guy: do you see the >>> prompt ?
[13:43] <muay-guy> jtr__: yes
[13:43] <pramod> jtr__: then!!!!!!!!!!!
[13:43] <jtr__> pramod: thinking - wait
[13:43] <jtr__> muay-guy: and you can't type anythinh ?
[13:43] <pramod> jtr__:  okay
[13:44] <jtr__> muay-guy: did you do the dpkg-reconfigure thing ?
[13:44] <dmb_> hihi
[13:44] <dmb_> how do I kill this process:
[13:44] <dmb_> dmb       2120  0.0  0.0      0     0 ?        Z    10:07   0:00 [chromium-browse] <defunct>
[13:44] <dmb_> kthxbi
[13:44] <jtr__> pramod: do the wvdial after 2 mins of having connected your modem, sometimes it takes time to show up
[13:44] <deej1976> kill 2120
[13:45] <jtr__> pramod: and do lsusb again , when you see the entry then try wvdial
[13:45] <dmb_> deej1976: tried, but it won't die
[13:45] <jtr__> pramod: tell me if this works
[13:45] <deej1976> kill -9 2120
[13:45] <muay-guy> jtr__: yes I can, but it's missing some libraries which should be built in like bz2
[13:45] <dmb_> deej1976: tried, but it won't die
[13:45] <muay-guy> and I did run it
[13:45] <muay-guy> didn't seem to do anything
[13:45] <dmb_> I even tried 'sudo kill -9 2120'
[13:45] <Spartakus> hi, is urban terror game can not be played in single player?
[13:46] <deej1976> dmb: might be in zombie state
[13:46] <Spartakus> it seems that the game is one of the best available on Ubuntu
[13:46] <jtr__> muay-guy: remove the package completely and reinstall
[13:46] <jtr__> muay-guy: apt-get remove python
[13:46] <deej1976> dmb_: whats the parent process
[13:46] <dmb_> deej1976: how do I sever the brain from the spine?
[13:46] <dmb_> deej1976: how do I discover the parent process? (sorry)
[13:46]  * dmb_ tries pstree
[13:47] <jtr__> muay-guy: and then apt-get install python2.7 (remember to add the 2.7 )
[13:47] <muay-guy> jtr__: apt-get remove python or python2.7?
[13:47] <audionb> what's an easy way to draw a 1280*720 rectangle on my desktop?
[13:47] <Spartakus> it seems that urban terror only have some maps enabled for single player mode
[13:47] <jtr__> muay-guy: 2.7
[13:47] <dmb_> pstree lists some intersting things I think
[13:47] <dmb_>      |-chromium-browse-+-2*[chromium-browse]
[13:47] <dmb_>      |                 `-15*[{chromium-brows}]
[13:47] <deej1976> dmb_: 1st Q: use a really shape sword
[13:48]  * dmb_ breaks out the grinder
[13:48] <Stanley00> audionb: do you mean draw a wallpaper?
[13:48] <dmb_> deej1976: is there something like 'kill-all chromium*'
[13:48] <audionb> Stanley00: no i just want to draw a rectangle on my desktop, just to see what it represents on my desktop
[13:48] <Guest71697> ....
[13:48] <deej1976> Try "ps -ef | grep 2120"
[13:49] <dmb_> deej1976: nothing new shows up
[13:49] <dmb_> ah.. maybe...
[13:49] <dmb_> dmb       2120  1974  0 10:07 ?        00:00:00 [chromium-browse] <defunct>
[13:49] <dmb_> is 1974 the parent?
[13:49] <deej1976> yes
[13:49] <jtr__> muay-guy: worked?
[13:49] <ikonia> yes
[13:49] <Stanley00> audionb: just drag mouse doesnt work?
[13:49] <deej1976> dmb_: kill 1974
[13:49] <muay-guy> jtr__: I think I messed up because I started with apt-get reomve python before I saw your other message
[13:49] <dmb_> deej1976: it's dead :D
[13:50] <audionb> Stanley00: what do you mean? how can i mesure the 1280*720?
[13:50] <jtr__> muay-guy: its nothing
[13:50] <jtr__> muay-guy: and at the very least its repairable :)
[13:50] <dmb_> deej1976: seems to have fixed my problem
[13:50] <deej1976> dmb_: operation complete one severed brain from spine
[13:50] <jtr__> muay-guy: so are u able to run 'python2.7' now ?
[13:50] <Stanley00> audionb: why do you need the exact region like that?
[13:50] <dmb_> it's time for me to check in on Urban Dead :D
[13:51] <classical_> Hey its might not be a suitable channel for this kind of question but i will ask it anyway . . .  I'm looking for Centralized Access software or also know as PUM (Privileged User Manager) i have found some but not free solutions. If anybody using such kinda software pleas let me know which one thanks
[13:51] <muay-guy> if I do apt-get remove python2.7 now I get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/730962/
[13:51] <audionb> Stanley00: i need to make a video of my desktop with this resolution (with camtasia) and i need to know how much place i'll have with this resolution
[13:52] <audionb> so how could i measure such a triangle?
[13:52] <audionb> such a rectangle*
[13:53] <jtr__> muay-guy: those packages aren't python's mess-up they are your audio packages!
[13:53] <ikonia> !info python
[13:53] <muay-guy> jtr__: how come those show up when I'm trying to remove python2.7?
[13:53] <ikonia> muay-guy: what version of ubuntu are you using
[13:53] <theadmin> classical_: Uhhh... sudo?
[13:54] <Stanley00> audionb: hmm, if I was you, i would record all the desktop and then cut them to the resolution I want...
[13:54] <muay-guy> ikonia: 11.04
[13:54] <muay-guy> im currently listening to Queen though
[13:54] <ikonia> !info python maverick
[13:54] <audionb> Stanley00: i need to know before hand where to place the things i'm recording
[13:54] <audionb> anyway i measured it with ksnapshot
[13:55] <ikonia> muay-guy: do you have any external or 3rd party software repos or PPA's configured
[13:55] <ikonia> !info python natty
[13:55] <Spartakus> !game
[13:55] <jtr__> ikonia: i think he must do the --fix-missing command
[13:56] <Spartakus> !help
[13:56] <usr13_> classical_: I believe that any more Priviledges afforded to the default Ubuntu user would be a breach of security.  Not sure what you are wanting, but just thought I'd throw that out.
[13:56] <ikonia> jtr__: no, it's a dependency miss-match
[13:56] <jtr__> ikonia: ok
[13:57] <muay-guy> ikonia: yeah I see in synaptic I have a few which were disactivated on update
[13:57] <muay-guy> upgrade, sorry
[13:57] <progre55> hi guys. I need to have gcc 4.3 installed on my oneiric, but it's not in the repos. is there an easy way to install it?
[13:58] <usr13_> classical_: ... and using sudo for admin functions is a very good way of handeling those other admin tasks that the default user does not normall have access to.
[13:58] <usr13_> *normally
[13:59] <jtr__> muay-guy: maybe this could help --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=947124
[14:00] <user81773> hello everyone. i just installed ubuntu 11.10 and it feels good to be back. really like the new desktop! i have one little annoyance  though.
[14:01] <user81773> the sound notification (top right) keeps flicking between mute and enabled... is there any way to change this?
[14:01] <jtr__> muay-guy: worked ?
[14:02] <muay-guy> jtr__: mmm now when I try to run apt-get update or apt-get install -f I get http://paste.ubuntu.com/730976/
[14:02] <usr13_> muay-guy: sudo  ?
[14:03] <muay-guy> usr13_: I'm sudoing
[14:03] <classical_> theadmin, usr13_  nope i want something that has web interface and policies
[14:04] <jtr__> muay-guy: log off and login and try again, thats the simpler way, but actually this happens when something else related to update like synaptic is still doing something
[14:04] <muay-guy> ok,... I'll be back in a couple of minutes with an update then
[14:04] <theadmin> classical_: sudo has policies, you can configure it easily to fit almost any need...
[14:05] <jtr__> theadmin: and is there a config file where these are defined ?
[14:06] <theadmin> jtr__: /etc/sudoers, duh
[14:06] <private_meta> I try to install perl for apache by using "apt-get install libapache2-mod-perl2", but it says the installation failed, error at hp-health, any idea what to do?
[14:06] <usr13_> theadmin: I think you mean that apt has policies, right?
[14:06] <theadmin> usr13_: No, you can define user priveleges in sudoers. How is that not a policy?
[14:06] <jtr__> theadmin: didn't know, thanks :)
[14:06] <usr13_> theadmin: Oh, never mind... I see.
[14:07] <M0TRN_th1> unity should be banned :( :( :(
[14:07] <lakatosi> Hey guys
[14:07] <ning> hi
[14:07] <lakatosi> COuld someone help me out with a flash issue?
[14:07] <szal> !ask | lakatosi
[14:07] <jtr__> lakatosi: shoot
[14:07] <M0TRN_th1> is there any ubuntu flavour that doesn't have any of the unity cr*p in it??
[14:08] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: you can always use gnome or kde !
[14:08] <szal> M0TRN_th1: Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu..
[14:08] <luketheduke> all of them except ubuntu.
[14:08] <pthreat> Hi, I need to display boot options when the boot loader fires up to start a single user mode session,  I have ubuntu installed on my PC
[14:08] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: kubuntu
[14:08] <jtr__> szal: haha :D
[14:08] <M0TRN_th1> ok which one is the best that doesn't have unity?
[14:08] <user81773> M0TRN_th1: there is gnome (which is very similar to unity), or kde, or lxde....
[14:08] <lakatosi> If you visit http:\\www.youarelistening.to , you should hear a radio feed from the LAPD and ambiental music playing the in background
[14:08] <M0TRN_th1> which one looks the most like older ubuntu?
[14:08] <user81773> M0TRN_th1: try kde!
[14:09] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: all have different desktop envs , check their sites , but i think kubuntu  is the best ( only my opinion )
[14:09] <lakatosi> I can only hear the radio feed
[14:09] <user81773> M0TRN_th1: kubuntu = kde
[14:09] <M0TRN_th1> ok I guess I will try kubuntu
[14:09] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: kde + ubuntu = kubuntu
[14:09] <M0TRN_th1> as long as it doesn't have unity it can't be worse
[14:09] <Sidewinder1> M0TRN_th1, Why not just run 10.04? Like me. :-)
[14:14] <lakatosi> The embedded SoundCloud player won't start
[14:14] <M0TRN_th1> Sidewinder1, because it has all old libs that don't work
[14:14] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: it will still have unity :P
[14:14] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: all u have to do right now is go to your synaptic and install package kubuntu :)
[14:14] <M0TRN_th1> jtr__, I can do this from normal Ubuntu install?
[14:14] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: yes!
[14:14] <M0TRN_th1> ok
[14:14] <M0TRN_th1> I don't know why Ubuntu decided to go down this path I know several who have dropped Linux because of this and switch to windows
[14:14] <lakatosi> If I try to listen to the song on SoundCloud after a few restarts it starts. playing. But it is a bit of a chore to manually switch to another song. Does anyone else have this issue?
[14:14] <M0TRN_th1> mentioning the w-word caused that?
[14:14] <dr_willis> windows 8 is heading down the unity like path also......
[14:14] <lakatosi> If I try to listen to the song on SoundCloud after a few restarts it starts. playing. But it is a bit of a chore to manually switch to another song. Does anyone else have this issue?
[14:14] <szal> !netsplit | M0TRN_th1
[14:14] <Spartakus> dr_willis, is there Windows 8? I think there were still Windows 7
[14:14] <M0TRN_th1> Spartakus, there is Windows 8 it is beta I think, and it sucks especially the Tablet edition
[14:14] <M0TRN_th1> looks like a poor Android clone
[14:14] <pangolin> !windows
[14:15] <M0TRN_th1> I wish there was a petition to abandon unity
[14:15] <dr_willis> Spartakus:  yes. and it has a very unity like look in many ways.
[14:15] <ryannathans> wtf is happening
[14:15] <sipior> M0TRN_th1: whinge elsewhere.
[14:15] <jtr__> ryannathans: google IRC netsplit
[14:15] <dr_willis> Theres just a current trend into creative desktop designs focusing on a panel of favorites, a minimal desktop + a few widgits and pages and pages of apps in a looooong listing you have to search.
[14:15] <Myrtti> !netsplit
[14:15] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: did you get the idea?
[14:15] <ryannathans> worst netspllit ever
[14:15] <ryannathans> it's like the whole internet just went off
[14:15]  * szal has seen worse
[14:15] <M0TRN_th1> jtr__, I think it flooded off my screen
[14:15] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: what ?
[14:15] <M0TRN_th1> jtr__, what you said
[14:15] <jtr__>  M0TRN_th1: i said did you get the idea?
[14:15] <M0TRN_th1> jtr__, there were tons of join/leave messages and I don't think I caught everything you wrote
[14:16] <subshift> hi guys, i have an ettercap problem, can someone help me with that?
[14:16] <Spartakus> windows 8 start screen is funny :))
[14:16] <compdoc> does it say Ubuntu?
[14:21] <Sidewinder1> M0TRN_th1, I suggested that you run Ubuntu 10.04, as I do; no Unity (Gnome2), and will be supported 'til 2013.
[14:21] <deej1976> !nountiy
[14:21] <Boubakr> Salame
[14:21] <deej1976> !nounity
[14:21] <M0TRN_th1> Sidewinder1, yeah but the problem is that I have to back port tons of libraries if I do that
[14:21] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: unity is the default, and will stay,  but you can install something alongside unity :)
[14:21] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: you can visit www.kubuntu.org / www.kde.org to know more about it , see the screenshots
[14:21] <Spartakus> there will be no more start menu, but start screen :))
[14:21] <M0TRN_th1> Sidewinder1, I will try KDE and if I don't like it I will try 10.04 anyway
[14:21] <M0TRN_th1> I liked KDE back in the old days v3.x
[14:21] <Sidewinder1> M0TRN_th1, I guess there's a down-side to most things. :-(
[14:21] <Spartakus> I suppose Windows' new user interface will fail miserable, just like KDE 4
[14:21] <Spartakus> I mean KDE 4 when it was first introduced
[14:21] <M0TRN_th1> Spartakus, its not super different from win 7 if it's not tablet edition
[14:21] <Spartakus> M0TRN_th1, I am totally agree
[14:21] <M0TRN_th1> Spartakus, but still Gnome is better than either Windows 7 or Unity
[14:21] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: choose what you like, after all thats what open source is about :)
[14:21] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: don't like gnome so much when the creator of linux hates it :P
[14:21] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: i mean gnome3, no offence to gnome2
[14:21] <Guest63720> Hi all! How can i find out the User-Agent-String my mplayer uses?
[14:22] <M0TRN_th1> now let's see how KDE is
[14:22] <M0TRN_th1> I know KDE 4 was crap when it was new
[14:22] <Exopaladin> Xubuntu probably feels the closest to old Gnome if you're after that
[14:22] <M0TRN_th1> and I haven't tried it after that
[14:22] <Exopaladin> KDE 4 is a lot better than it used to be though, it's pretty usable these days
[14:22] <M0TRN_th1> Exopaladin, I'll give it a spin
[14:22] <abiss27> hey guys I made a standard user account in 11.10 and noticed that it did not ask me to encrypt that user as the other versions.
[14:23] <Guest63720> eight, ill just check them packets
[14:23] <Spartakus> M0TRN_th1, again, I am totally agree, but, I do prefer gnome classic
[14:23] <Spartakus> in my opinion, the classis is must better than the gnome shell(but again, it is just my personal preference)
[14:23] <user81773> i have problems with sound output. - the output works. but has cracks in it. sound-notification also shows sound as mute during these cracks
[14:23]  * Sidewinder1 Hits the floodbots with a large trout, for misbehaving. :D
[14:24] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: kde has changed alot, i think you will like the new one
[14:24] <compdoc> do not harras teh floodbots. ty
[14:24] <LogicallyDashing> I had network sharing set up quite nicely in 11.04. In 11.10 the same setup has the LAN-facing network interface constantly disconnecting and reconnecting. I've tried this using both Network Manager and iptables. I don't know how to diagnose this. Suggestions?
[14:24] <private_meta> i got a package, hp-health, an hp system health package... it seems broken, I can't install it and I can't uninstall it, but it breaks package updates, what can I do?
[14:24] <M0TRN_th1> jtr__, the creator of Linux (=Linus Torvalds) hates Gnome3?
[14:24] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: yup, so i read in a blog, wait i'll send the link
[14:24] <LogicallyDashing> private_meta: what are you using to do the (un)install?
[14:24] <Myrtti> hey folks, M0TRN_th1, jtr__, please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:25] <compdoc> M0TRN_th1, I only wish Ubuntu had Gnome3
[14:25] <M0TRN_th1> compdoc, doesn't ubuntu have gnome 3? I thought that was what GnomeShell was
[14:25] <private_meta> LogicallyDashing: tried apt-get, remove and purge, didn't work
[14:25] <jtr__> MOTRN_th1:  http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/08/05/linus_slams_gnome_three/
[14:25] <compdoc> it has Unity
[14:28] <Myrtti> we've got enough traffic with surviving from the netsplits without this meta discussion

[14:28] <deej1976> !nounity | M0TRN_th1
[14:28] <LogicallyDashing> private_meta: try issuing commands directly to dpkg. example dpkg -r hp-health
[14:28] <M0TRN_th1> compdoc, I installed Gnome Shell once on 11.10 beta to try if it was better than unity then nothing worked
[14:28] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/08/05/linus_slams_gnome_three/
[14:28] <private_meta> LogicallyDashing: how do I reinstall a package?
[14:28] <Myrtti> jtr__: seriously, dude
[14:28] <M0TRN_th1> jtr__, thanks got it.. how cna I ignore join/split messages in xchat?
[14:28] <LogicallyDashing> private_meta: you uninstall it and then install it again
[14:28] <private_meta> It tells me its in an inconsistent state
[14:28] <private_meta> I can't deinstall it as it tells me i have to reinstall it first
[14:28] <jtr__> there is an option, i am using a different irc, try its preferences/settings - or wait a sec i'll find myself and tell
[14:28] <DJones> M0TRN_th1: Right click on the channel name, I think there is an option to ignore joins/parts etc
[14:28] <pangolin> M0TRN_th1: right click on the channel name and you will see the option in the menu
[14:28] <LogicallyDashing> private_meta: dpkg -P hp_health
[14:28] <LogicallyDashing> private_meta: what now?
[14:28] <M0TRN_th1> DJones, thanks!! It was there "Hide join/part messages"
[14:28] <M0TRN_th1> pangolin, right
[14:28] <M0TRN_th1> much easier to read now ;)
[14:28] <private_meta> LogicallyDashing: weird, now it says dpkg: warning: ignoring request to remove hp_health which isn't installed.
[14:28] <s_cd> help，archlinux,yaourt -S ,appear problem setting dbpath '/usr/local/var/lib/pacman/' (could not find or read directory)
[14:28] <LogicallyDashing> private_meta: I guess that's what it meant by inconsistent state
[14:29] <theadmin> s_cd: Err, go to #archlinux
[14:29] <LogicallyDashing> private_meta: if you want to do the work you could probably just manually remove all the package's files
[14:29] <private_meta> ah
[14:29] <cylonmath> Guys I have been using 10.04 , and i am new to Linux. If I dont switch to latest distribution , i can not upgrade my packages to latest version ???
[14:29] <private_meta> LogicallyDashing: typo, i wrote hp_health, not hp-health
[14:30] <LogicallyDashing> cylonmath: you can still get backports for a while but you have to enable that section of the repository
[14:30] <M0TRN_th1> cylonmath, only iif someone has backported those packages to 10.04
[14:30] <private_meta> LogicallyDashing: dpkg -P yields the same result
[14:30] <LogicallyDashing> cylonmath: and if you're patient you can most likely compile them yourself but at that point I'd suggest upgrading the whole system
[14:30] <Myrtti> cylonmath: is there a reason why you'd want the latest version of packages other than just wanting the latest version of packages? 10.04 does get security updates and it's perfectly ok to use
[14:30] <M0TRN_th1> cylonmath, but if you want to upgrade I suggest you try out a live CD first since there is just a *tiny* chance you might not totally love the new GUI!! ;)
[14:31] <compdoc> 11.04 is fine too
[14:31] <Myrtti> compdoc: but 10.04 is LTS ;-)
[14:31] <M0TRN_th1> compdoc, but 11.04 support will end sooner than that of 10.04
[14:31] <cylonmath> I ask because i am afraid some newly built software has a 'version' dependency probably. Thanks for your suggestions i got it !
[14:31] <compdoc> so? by then, the problems with 11.10 will be sorted
[14:32] <jtr__> compdoc: so optimistic :)
[14:32] <compdoc> heh
[14:32] <M0TRN_th1> compdoc, dunno, I'm not too suer
[14:32] <Myrtti> compdoc: and it's easier to upgrade from 10.04 to 12.04 than from 11.10
[14:32] <jtr__> compdoc: thats the spirit of a ubuntu user :)
[14:32] <Myrtti> compdoc: well, from 11.05
[14:32] <deej1976> Support for 11.04 will stop around the launch of 12.10
[14:32] <Myrtti> mrh, fail.
[14:32] <M0TRN_th1> Myrtti, you'll know that when its out lol
[14:32] <deej1976> !release
[14:33] <Myrtti> from 11.04
[14:33] <M0TRN_th1> ok so someone told me earlier how to upgrade from ubuntu to kubuntu but it scrolled off with all the netsplit messages. what was it I have to install again?
[14:34] <pangolin> kubuntu-desktop
[14:34] <deej1976> M0TRN_th1 sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[14:34] <M0TRN_th1> thanks
[14:34] <Mayteck> helo
[14:35] <ArashM> how can I retrieve downloaded packages(with synaptic) from another computer is same version my ubuntu?
[14:36] <Eki_> Hello! is anyone familiar with PiTiVi?
[14:36] <pangolin> ArashM: the .debs will be in var/cache/apt/archives
[14:36] <private_meta> LogicallyDashing: k, found a way to manually remove it
[14:37] <LogicallyDashing> private_meta: congrats
[14:37] <private_meta> Any idea what might be the issue when I get the following error when SSHing from one machine to another, both ubuntu? "sh: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory"
[14:37] <kints> anyone experienced configuring xorg.conf manually  that can give me a help
[14:37] <kints> ?
[14:37] <ironhalik> Anyone knows why my audio driver makes the soundcard run at 100% all the time? After disabling it I get +30 min of battery time
[14:37] <ArashM> how can I retrieve downloaded packages(with synaptic) from another computer is same version my ubuntu?
[14:37] <ryannathans> oh my jesus
[14:38] <ArashM> how can I retrieve downloaded packages(with synaptic) from another computer is same version my ubuntu?
[14:38] <pangolin> !repeat | ArashM
[14:38] <deej1976> !repeat | ArashM:
[14:38] <dr_willis> ArashM:  the files are cached in /var/cache/apt/
[14:38] <xevil> are there still any major issues upgrading from 11.04 to 11.10?
[14:38] <pangolin> ArashM: the .debs will be in /var/cache/apt/archives
[14:38] <M0TRN_th1> ArashM, you can copy them across by hand from /var/cache/apt/archives
[14:38] <dr_willis> ArashM:  copy them over.. or set up apt-cacher-ng if you ahve a home lan and want to save on downloading
[14:38] <pangolin> wall of red ^
[14:39] <M0TRN_th1> e.g. with rsync: sudo rsync -avug root@firstmachine:/var/cache/apt/archives /var/cache/apt/
[14:39] <Mond> hello alltogether
[14:39] <Mond> I have a question regarding the package unattended-upgrades
[14:40] <Mond> this package uses apt-get for automatic updates
[14:40] <Mond> how can I change this to use aptitude?
[14:40] <private_meta> k, fixed i guess
[14:40] <Mond> because I dont want to mix apt with aptitude
[14:40] <scoopex> how can i install ubuntu server on fiberchannel disks in combination with LVM? (the installer currently has problems with multiple instances of a LUN which appear over several paths) is there a manual for this?
[14:41] <pangolin> Mond: they do the same thing
[14:41] <Mond> Yes, but I've heard that you shouldnt use both, apt and aptitude
[14:41] <sipior> Mond: makes no difference.
[14:41] <llutz> M0TRN_th1: just a note, rsync -a already includes -g
[14:41] <M0TRN_th1> mond I think apt was first recommended, then it became aptitude and now it's apt again and aptitude is deprecated
[14:42] <Jacks_Revenge> I just installed a new video card and my desktop does not fit my screen, any suggestions?
[14:42] <M0TRN_th1> llutz, heh, I memorized "-avug" when rsync was quite new, and used it since then
[14:43] <Poundo> I have NameVirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:9856 Listen 9856 in ports.conf and the same for 9857.  Also two files for the virtual sites one with this <VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:9856> and the other <Virt…:9857>
[14:43] <Poundo> but i can't reach xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:9857 in a browser how do i troubleshoot
[14:43] <Mond> ok thank you
[14:43] <Mond> bye
[14:44] <M0TRN_th1> almost done installing kubuntu-desktop, hour of truth
[14:45] <theadmin> Jacks_Revenge: Alt+F2, type in "xrandr -s 800x600" and hit Enter (or whatever resolution you want)
[14:45] <Jezzz> there a quick way to restart the launcher?  mine is kind of locked up
[14:45] <Jezzz> don't feel like restarting
[14:46] <ienasol> !list
[14:46] <user81773> for some reason my soundcard thinks that i remove/replugg the audio jack. how can i tell ubuntu that it should stop looking for that?
[14:46] <compdoc> Jezzz, is the launcher covering your apps?
[14:46] <Jezzz> compdoc:  sort of, a popup is frozen and covering apps
[14:46] <Jezzz> compdoc:  and the launcher won't hid
[14:46] <Jezzz> e
[14:47] <theadmin> Jezzz: Try using the "xkill" command and clicking the launcher
[14:47] <Jezzz> just an annoyance really, but I don't know the process name of the launcher
[14:47] <Eki_> in PiTiVi, I have an audio clip that's longer than the video I'm making. First of all, when I import it, about 50 minutes of silence are added at the end of the file. Second of all, the program doesn't seem to realize where the video is "supposed" to end - it just assumes I never shortened the music file to match the video (which I did). Does anyone know what can be done?
[14:47] <Poundo> can anyone give me tips on troubleshooting apache2 virtual hosts
[14:47] <Jezzz> nor how to start it again
[14:47] <Jezzz> theadmin:  k
[14:47] <theadmin> Jezzz: That works for killing any GUI apps :D
[14:47] <theadmin> Jezzz: And the launcher should auto-restart
[14:48] <ironhalik> so anyone noticed their soundcard hogging their batteries? :>
[14:48] <Jezzz> theadmin:  perfect.  ta!
[14:48] <theadmin> Jezzz: No problem
[14:49] <sipior> ironhalik: compared to the cpu and gpu, i imagine a soundcard would scarcely make a dent.
[14:49] <ironhalik> sipior: it makes like a 30 min dent in my battery time :) If I turn off the sound, according to powerTOP, it goes to sleep, while turned on, it killes my battery quite a bit
[14:50] <M0TRN_th1> theadmin, that used to have a shortcut like ctrl+shift+escape IIRC, is it possible to bring that back? (changed the X cursor into a skull)
[14:50] <sipior> ironhalik: well, don't do that, then.
[14:50] <ironhalik> sipior: I want to listen to music :>
[14:50] <ironhalik> while on battery
[14:50] <sipior> ironhalik: life is hard, sometimes.
[14:50] <theadmin> M0TRN_th1: Heh, you can -- search for "Keyboard Shortcuts", run that app, assign that shortcut to xkill
[14:50] <ironhalik> oh, this is indeed a true OSS respons of you sipior
[14:51] <theadmin> M0TRN_th1: I assign ctrl-shift-escape to this though: gnome-terminal -e 'htop'
[14:51] <sipior> ironhalik: you're welcome.
[14:51] <ironhalik> ;>
[14:57] <Eki_> oh, now, suddenly, the audio works as it should!
[14:57] <M0TRN_th1> theadmin, ok maybe ctrl+alt+delete then :)
[14:57] <M0TRN_th1> very satisfying combo to type on an app that's misbehaving
[14:57] <theadmin> M0TRN_th1: ctrl-alt-delete is set to something else by default
[14:58] <theadmin> M0TRN_th1: That shutdown dialog I beleive
[14:58] <M0TRN_th1> yeah I know logout, but I don't use that
[15:00] <M0TRN_th1> is that netsplit still happening so I can unblock join/part msgs?
[15:02] <ardithoxha> hey can anyone help me with EMESENE?
[15:02] <ryannathans> since that massive netsplit i can't get any access to my server in my own house, it errors on incorrect password, when it's correct it just asks for login again
[15:03] <M0TRN_th1> arf.. I instaleld kubuntu-desktop and rebooted and it came up with shiny new login prompt and KDE splash screen but when I logged in it put unity back again
[15:03] <jtr__> ryannathans: restart the IRC client
[15:04] <Pumpkin-> ryannathans: Level3 (a major internet transit provider) is currently having a lot of issues. This may well explain this.
[15:04] <deej1976> M0TRN_th1: Before entering your password you may need to select the correct session
[15:04] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: the shiny new login has an option where u must choose the KDE plasma workspace :)
[15:04] <M0TRN_th1> yeah that's right
[15:04] <M0TRN_th1> jtr__, it works now
[15:05] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: there is a blue arrow pointing downwards, click it and see the options
[15:05] <ryannathans> jtr__: this is my actual system
[15:05] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: :)
[15:05] <ryannathans> i can't login to it
[15:05] <ryannathans> with mouse and keyboard
[15:05] <ryannathans> tried a reboot
[15:05] <M0TRN_th1> jtr__, it works but its super slow to load
[15:05] <ryannathans> sshd refuses connections as soon as i get password correct, same as ftp
[15:05] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: good things take time, and this is the first startup, lot of default configs load
[15:06] <jtr__> ryannathans: sorry dude, i can't get one bit of your problem, but let me try
[15:06] <M0TRN_th1> jtr__, it's loaded now and it's looking nice
[15:06] <jtr__> M0TRN_th1: enjoy kde :) and if u can, get involved :  http://www.kde.org/community/getinvolved/
[15:07] <ryannathans> i can't log in, i get errors when password is wrong, when i get password correct it jsut asks me to log in again, the box is hot and hdds are maxed I/O
[15:07] <ryannathans> sshd drops connection on login, same as ftp
[15:07] <ryannathans> smb just died
[15:08] <dr_willis> i would wonder if theres not some nasty hardware failure going on.
[15:08] <M0TRN_th1> ryannathans, it probably can't look up your hostname or something
[15:08] <willh_> with xrdp, how do I increase the number of users that can login from 10 to 25?
[15:08] <jtr__> ryannathans: it's like die hard's - fire sail but only on one computer :P
[15:10] <QuikNik> hey all, i'm thinking about switching my one desktop to Ubuntu but I am not a big fan of Unity... is there any way to use Gnome2 like came default in 10.10 with the newer revisions like 11.04, 11.10 or the upcoming 12.04 LTS?  I just prefer Gnome2
[15:10] <M0TRN_th1> QuikNik, it's possible but the end result is quite sucky
[15:10] <M0TRN_th1> I am just trying KDE instead it seems pretty good
[15:11] <ryannathans> M0TRN_th1: this is LOCAL montior/keyboard/mouse
[15:11] <dr_willis> QuikNik:  id  suggest giving unity a chance, and trying gnome-shell, be sure to check out the tweak guides at the webupd8 blog site and the lists of indicator applets and lenses and quicklists at askubuntu.com
[15:11] <M0TRN_th1> ryannathans, did you try logging into text console with ctrl+alt+f1?
[15:11] <xangua> !gnome2 | QuikNik
[15:12] <ryannathans> M0TRN_th1: that's what i'm trying.
[15:12] <dr_willis> QuikNik:  you could always use some dock in unity if you wanted a nice panel at the bottom.
[15:12] <M0TRN_th1> ryannathans, probably its memory is full with some runaway script or program
[15:12] <ryannathans> on reboot i can't
[15:12] <Sidewinder1> QuikNik, Just install 10.04, it's LTS and will be supported 'til 2013.
[15:12] <ryannathans> smb starts and dies hunderds of times
[15:12] <hutch> Is there a way to add dash home to cairo docck and remove side bar?
[15:12] <QuikNik> I haven't tried 11.10 yet, has unity changed much since 11.04?
[15:12] <jtr__> !notunity
[15:12] <ryannathans> the system was only installed yesterday
[15:12] <dr_willis> QuikNik:  its improved a lot. and will get better in 12.xx
[15:13] <QuikNik> Sidewinder1, yeah or just say the heck with it and keep a 10.10 installation hjehe
[15:13] <QuikNik> or 10.04, yeah
[15:13] <M0TRN_th1> ryannathans, sounds like its screwed up try booting in safe mode
[15:13] <ryannathans> i can't boot in anything
[15:13] <jtr__> ubottu: when you say see !xyz what do you exactly mean?
[15:13] <ryannathans> brb trying something else
[15:13] <Loptr> How can i disable the bluetoothd serviced from startup ?
[15:13] <dr_willis> jtr__:  ubottu  is a bot.. and !command is a trigger for the bot.
[15:14] <dr_willis> !bot | jtr__
[15:14] <gringochapin> Hi all. Trying to convert a Ubuntu 11.10 desktop install to a server install. Any tips on what packages I should remove to completely get rid of the desktop and everything related?
[15:14] <jtr__> dr_willis: scary :D
[15:14] <dr_willis> gringochapin:  why bother? just dont start up  the login manager. :)
[15:14] <dr_willis> !text | gringochapin
[15:15] <gringochapin> The problem is that it's an old computer with a tiny harddrive, and would like to clean all that crap out of there. I would just do a reinstall with the server CD, but I don't have physical access to the machine. Just ssh.
[15:15] <ardithoxha> hey can anyone help me with EMESENE?
[15:16] <ryannathans> i managed to pull a root shell in recoer
[15:16] <ryannathans> i managed to pull a root shell in recovery
[15:16] <M0TRN_th1> ardithoxha, your doctor?
[15:16] <Loptr> How can i disable the bluetoothd serviced from startup ?
[15:16] <dr_willis> night all..
[15:16] <ardithoxha> hahaha
[15:16] <jtr__> dr_willis: night1
[15:16] <healern> Can someone tell me whether this is relatively safe or not? http://rarcrack.sourceforge.net/
[15:16] <ardithoxha> Emesene new version (<IP_ADDRESS>) cannot on TRAY?!
[15:17] <jtr__> dr_willis: thank god u didnt say i am a bot too :P
[15:17] <M0TRN_th1> healern, its open source so I'd say its relatively safe? but probably won't work unless the password is trivial
[15:18] <healern> M0TRN_th1, so you would trust anything ending in sourceforge.net? Is this a assumption on your part or based on something more solid?
[15:18] <M0TRN_th1> healern, a bit of both, projects have to be approved by SourceForge staff to be hosted there
[15:19] <hutch> is there a fix for videochat between empathy/pidgin or other and fb/msn users?
[15:19] <M0TRN_th1> healern, also it comes with full source so if it was dodgy someone would probably have flagged it
[15:19] <llutz> Loptr: set BLUETOOTH_ENABLED=0 in /etc/default/bluetooth
[15:19] <ryannathans> healern: if it's open sauce and has a few downloads, must be good
[15:19] <healern> M0TRN_th1, and all ending in "sourceforge.net" requires some level of approval by said staff?
[15:20] <M0TRN_th1> healern, xxxxx.sourceforge.net is a project site of project xxxxx, which has to be approved to begin with by SF staff
[15:20] <Loptr> llutz, thank you
[15:20] <M0TRN_th1> it will have a correspondign SF page on http://sourceforge.net/projects/rarcrack/

[15:24] <rabbi1> where can i find httpd  or apachectl ?
[15:24] <M0TRN_th1> rabbi1, in /usr/sbin?
[15:24] <rabbi1> if i have to run i got to sa /usr/sbin/httpd -s ?
[15:25] <M0TRN_th1> why do I get "Internal error" when I try to open Chrome .deb file from Firefox?
[15:25] <Dark_Apostrophe> Hello, is it possible to remove the messaging icon from the system tray in Unity?
[15:25] <M0TRN_th1> rabbi1, it's called /usr/sbin/apache2 and /usr/sbin/apachectl at least on my system
[15:25] <dr_willis> M0TRN_th1:  try to install it from the command line perhaps.
[15:26] <rabbi1> MOTRN_th1: thank you
[15:27] <rabbi1> i couldn't find httpd but good with apache2ctl
[15:28] <M0TRN_th1> dr_willis with what command? dpkg -i shows a lot of errors
[15:28] <Lens_flare> #JOIN acer-liquid
[15:29] <M0TRN_th1> dr_willis, never mind it worked after apt-get install libcurl3
[15:29] <Lens_flare> #JOIN #acer-liquid
[15:29] <healern> How do I install it though? Linux makes it so very difficult to install anything outside of its prepackaged stuff
[15:29] <Inkonsiderate> Hello, I'm relatively new to Linux. I was wondering if there is a method to take the instructions from this page: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1111768 ||| and make it a simple 'one-click' process?
[15:29] <Inkonsiderate>  My intentions are to make some sort of quick deployment for slave machines in the even I have to do a clean install of the OS.
[15:29] <edbian> Inkonsiderate: reading...
[15:29] <dr_willis> M0TRN_th1:  i always use 'sudo gdebi foo.deb'
[15:29] <Inkonsiderate> *event
[15:30] <M0TRN_th1> healern, it says there on the site exactly how to do it?!
[15:30] <Inkonsiderate> edbian: Thank you.
[15:30] <tensorpudding> Inkonsiderate, that page could be out of date, it's 2 years old
[15:30] <healern> not in a way that works M0TRN_th1
[15:30] <tensorpudding> you should go through step by step to make sure it works for you
[15:30] <conntrack> The net takes the piss
[15:30] <M0TRN_th1> healern, what bit doesn't work?
[15:30] <Inkonsiderate> tensorpudding: It works, I used that page yesterday and it performs flawlessly.
[15:30] <tensorpudding> Inkonsiderate, then you can write a script which replicates what the instructions do
[15:31] <Inkonsiderate> tensorpudding: precisely, are there instructions on writing such scripts?
[15:31] <meowsus> When I add a new ppa repository and there is no designation for oneiric packages within the ppa, when i run "sudo aptitude update" I get 404 errors for the repository. Is the workaround for this to change the "deb" line within the .list file to an older version of ubuntu (like "natty" instead of "oneiric") or is there a better way to handle this?
[15:31] <tensorpudding> though getting to the link to download the file is hard to script
[15:31] <ardithoxha> Emesene new version (<IP_ADDRESS>) cannot on TRAY?!
[15:31] <dr_willis> !abs | Inkonsiderate
[15:31] <Inkonsiderate> tensorpudding: I could manually add location for the file though?
[15:31] <dr_willis> night all.
[15:31] <Inkonsiderate> ubottu: Thank you veryy much.
[15:31] <tensorpudding> holy...
[15:32] <tensorpudding> this looks like a total hackjob
[15:32] <tensorpudding> installing an rpm?
[15:32] <tensorpudding> changing sh to be bash?
[15:32] <ardithoxha> Emesene new version (<IP_ADDRESS>) cannot on TRAY?!
[15:32] <Inkonsiderate> tensorpudding: It's the only way that it works though. I tried doing the Alien conversion but it did not install correctly.
[15:32] <M0TRN_th1> ardithoxha, then use the old version?
[15:33] <tensorpudding> because their rpm is crap
[15:33] <Inkonsiderate> tensorpudding: agreed. :)
[15:33] <ardithoxha> M0TRN_thl: where?
[15:33] <tensorpudding> sorry
[15:33] <healern> Like the line "tar -xjf rarcrack-VERSION.tar.bz2", and yeah I tried replacing "VERSION" with the version number
[15:33] <Universalrefill> someone have a link to a fix for my HD4780 not wanting to do dualscreens?
[15:33] <M0TRN_th1> ardithoxha, dunno, check their website I don't use it
[15:33] <tensorpudding> Inkonsiderate, do they make a tarball available?
[15:33] <healern> M0TRN_th1,
