[10:55] <beij> you could edit a line "modprobe -r nvidia"
[10:55] <llutz> Red_Baron: if you use 185..... its the proprietary one

[10:56] <beij> Red_Baron, /etc/pm/sleep.d/ may help
[10:56] <tsyj2007> lei:#ubuntu-zh
[10:57] <beij> i know there was something like that
[10:57] <Red_Baron> i didn't found anything useful on http://www.retrevo.com/search?q=MSI+M670+ubuntu :(
[10:57] <Dayofswords> i have a question, in a terminal when i begin typing a command and hit tab, it should either (1)having only one match, complete the command or (2)if their a multiple things that match what is done so far, i shows of list of what you could do, right?
[10:58] <llutz> beij: if you rmmod the nvidia-driver at hibernation, you always will resume into gdm. that makes no sense, you better just boot then
[10:58] <Curly_Q> http://www.retrevo.com/support/MSI-M670-Laptops-manual/id/3091ag018/t/2/
[10:58] <hateball> Dayofswords: yes
[10:58] <Red_Baron> so the return from suspend issues are related 100% on video drivers?
[10:58] <iceroot> Red_Baron: no
[10:58] <Dayofswords> hateball: well, (2) is not happening for me
[10:58] <hateball> Dayofswords: press tab twice
[10:58] <llutz> Red_Baron: not 100% but nvidia is known for problems
[10:59] <Dayofswords> ah, thanks =p
[10:59] <Dayofswords> worked
[11:00] <Red_Baron> I read this forum entry already http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=651165
[11:00] <Red_Baron> but it refers to webcam
[11:00] <Red_Baron> nothing about solving suspend/resume issues
[11:00] <ubuntnoob> is there a python channel for non-registered users?
[11:00] <llutz> Red_Baron: hibernation could be a mess with linux
[11:01] <Dantonic> !mtab
[11:01] <Dantonic> what is /etc/mtab ?
[11:01] <iceroot> ubuntnoob: register oyur nick or ask in #freenode, this is only ubuntu-support
[11:01] <Red_Baron> i wanna suspend working not hibernate :(
[11:02] <gottto> Dantonic: it is the list of mounted filesystems
[11:02] <llutz> Red_Baron: hibernation is suspend (to-disk)
[11:02] <indus> whats the diff between suspend and hibernate
[11:02] <Dantonic> gottto can it be edited?
[11:02] <dwebb> anyone good with cryptsetup and encrypted lvm?
[11:02] <llutz> Red_Baron: to-ram is the same story, some hardware just works, other won't
[11:02] <iceroot> !anyone | dwebb
[11:02] <gottto> Dantonic: there's no point - it is what is mounted - not what will be - what are you trying to do?
[11:03] <dwebb> I already did
[11:03] <dwebb> :)
[11:03] <llutz> Dantonic: usually not to be edited
 to get right to it, I am doing an install with 10.04 with encrypted lvm using as a framework this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemLVMHowto .  Essentially you do the cryptsetup and lvm setup using the livecd console and then install to the partitions you created using ubiquity.  this process worked up to 9.10.  Now however I am getting an error during startup after I decrypt the partition saying something alo
[11:03] <dwebb> ng the l
 ines of "cryptsetup: lvm device name (cryplvm) does not contain a dash" and then drops you down to initramfs.  The strange thing is when I look in /dev/mapper both of the lvm partitions exist (/dev/mapper/cryptlvm-root, etc).
[11:03] <FloodBot1> dwebb: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:03] <iceroot> dwebb: then be patient and dont use "anyone-questions"
[11:03] <iceroot> dwebb: and go to #ubuntu+1
[11:03] <dwebb> ah...
[11:03] <dwebb> bot
[11:03] <dwebb> haha
[11:03] <Dantonic> gottto, llutz:  I've been trying unsuccessfully to mount a new hard drive with read write permissions... I am able to to mount it, I created an fstab line, but I cannot read write to it unless I am doing so under root priviliges
[11:04] <dwebb> trying to answer a bot probably not the best idea
[11:04] <llutz> Dantonic: what filesystem?
[11:04] <Red_Baron> it means that on my laptop it will never run just fine ubuntu? :(
[11:04] <Dantonic> llutz, it is a vfat file system... formatted as fat32
[11:04] <Curly_Q> Red Baron:    http://joeb454.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=921507
[11:04] <llutz> Dantonic: use uid/gid/umask as mount options
[11:05] <llutz> Dantonic: and /etc/fstab is the file to change
[11:05] <Dantonic> llutz, this is the current line, would you be so kind as to type the exact line that I should have in there? /dev/sda5 	/media/storage	vfat    defaults,user,exec,rw  	0  	0
[11:05] <gottto> Dantonic: this works here in fstab - /dev/sda1       /media/hda1     vfat    defaults,utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[11:06] <llutz> Dantonic:   .... user,exec,umask=000 ....
[11:06] <Jimi_Neutral> Hi all, anyone know how hard it would be to put plogger on a NAS server that has a webserver built into it?
[11:06] <Dantonic> ok let me try
[11:06] <llutz> Dantonic: if you want to have all users rw-access
[11:06] <Dantonic> what is 007?
[11:06] <llutz> Dantonic: user/group have access, others not
[11:07] <Dantonic> ah with 007 does that mean that I will have access to it only from my desktop? but others will not?
[11:07] <ranjan> llutz:: do you have any proper information how to use this fmask and dmask values
[11:07] <Red_Baron> can somebody help me with my suspend/resume issue? :(
[11:07] <iceroot> Jimi_Neutral: hard is always relativ, you have a real question?
[11:07] <llutz> ranjan: same way like umask,
[11:07] <dwebb> hrm
[11:07] <Jimi_Neutral> iceroot, well i guess i need to k now if it is possible first and foremost
[11:07] <dwebb> it looks like they changed he crypttab
[11:08] <iceroot> Jimi_Neutral: and the nas is ubuntu?
[11:08] <RedNifre> Are drivers kernel-specific or distribution-specific?
[11:08] <Dantonic> llutz, what is "gid=46"?
[11:08] <iceroot> RedNifre: normally kernel
[11:09] <llutz> Dantonic: group-id 46
[11:09] <Jimi_Neutral> iceroot, it has mysql and php on it
[11:09] <iceroot> Jimi_Neutral: is it ubuntu or not?
[11:09] <Curly_Q> Red Baron what exactly are the symptoms of what your computer is doing without going into the model and card type?
[11:09] <Jimi_Neutral> not as far as i know
[11:09] <iceroot> Jimi_Neutral: this is the ubuntu support channel :)
[11:09] <ranjan> llutz:: I tried to gave those values for this dmask and fmask but after setting that values I was not being able to use that drive .. I was not sure with the correct values .. So that put me on problem
[11:09] <llutz> Dantonic: grep 46 /etc/group            man mount
[11:10] <Dantonic> llutz, after doing a sudo mount -a I still cannot write to the drive
[11:10] <llutz> ranjan: what values have you used?
[11:10] <Red_Baron> so.. actually I have two problems with suspend/resume
[11:10] <Dantonic> I tried with both umask=000 and 007
[11:10] <Curly_Q> We read that, but, what are the symptoms. Explain them.
[11:10] <llutz> Dantonic: paste that line from fstab here please
[11:11] <Dantonic> /dev/sda5 	/media/storage	vfat    defaults,user,exec,umask=007,gid=46  	0  	0
[11:11] <Red_Baron> 1. if something is connected to usb, than, it will not enter in suspend mode... it will resume immediatelly but screen is off and laptop is not responding
[11:11] <Curly_Q> Red Baron, it may not be an Ubuntu issue.
[11:12] <Red_Baron> 2. if no usb device is connected, then it will go to suspend BUT when i open it up, the screen is off and laptop still unresponsive
[11:12] <Red_Baron> but i hear that the hard drive is working
[11:12] <llutz> Dantonic: sudo umount /media/storagevfat && mount /media/storagevfat
[11:12] <Red_Baron> but laptop completely unresponsive
[11:12] <Curly_Q> Go into the BIOS and shut off suspend and hibernate.
[11:13] <ranjan> llutz:: I am not able to recall the exact value at this point of time
[11:13] <Red_Baron> there is no such option in BIOS
[11:13] <llutz> ranjan: just keep in mind, that those values are masks too
[11:13] <Red_Baron> I upgraded the BIOS too, but no change...
[11:13] <Curly_Q> Also check if the BIOS setting for PLUG N PLAY is on or off.
[11:13] <Dantonic> llutz, why /media/storagevfat ? u mean just /media/storage ?    umount: /media/storagevfat: not found
[11:14] <llutz> Dantonic: sorry, misread you line, you're right
[11:14] <kohlrak> is there a command line program that will say what programs are using the most hard disk at a particular moment (like CPU?)
[11:14] <Curly_Q> Better said:   Enabled or Disabled.
[11:14] <iceroot> kohlrak: iotop imo
[11:14] <Dantonic> llutz, ok I did that...
[11:14] <Dantonic> no change
[11:15] <Curly_Q> Kohlrak            top
[11:15] <kohlrak> iceroot, thank you. You have no idea how much help this'll be.
[11:15] <blueglasses> kohlrak, try opening a console and type top
[11:15] <ranjan> llutz:: Is there any calculation based on which this values are being determined
[11:15] <kohlrak> top doesn't suffice, as top is for CPU and memory
[11:15] <_iksik> hello
[11:15] <_iksik> where I can find WINE .deb package for 9.10 ?
[11:15] <blueglasses> kohlrak, try du
[11:15] <blueglasses> kohlrak, try lsof
[11:16] <Dantonic> llutz, there's also another issue, I'm not sure if it is related, while I was trying different things to get it to work, I tried mouting on different points like /media/storage /media/storage1 etc.. those lines are no longer in fstab, but if I browse to /media/ those paths are still there, and they all point to the same hard drive
[11:16] <llutz> ranjan: "subtract the mask from 777" to get the permissions
[11:17] <iceroot> _iksik: in the normal repo
[11:17] <_iksik> iceroot, i need to download this file... where is a normal repo? :P
[11:17] <Curly_Q> Kohlrak, top may be for CPU but it tells you the devices that are being used.
[11:17] <iceroot> _iksik: apt-get -d wine  i guess is the command to just download it, have a look at man apt-get
[11:17] <llutz> Dantonic: you can delete the  unneeded mountpoints
[11:18] <duncan-nz> OOo Impress question: how do I add a border to an image?
[11:18] <Dantonic> llutz, I am not sure how to do that, that's why I was inquiring about mtab earlier... those mount points don't exist in fstab any longer, but they are still present under /media/
[11:19] <Curly_Q> Duncan use GIMP.
[11:19] <llutz> Dantonic: mountpoints are just directories, if you don't need them, "sudo rm -rf /media/storage1"
[11:19] <Jimi_Neutral> iceroot, where you think i shoudl go?
[11:19] <Dantonic> llutz, ah ok.. sorry I'm a little new
[11:19] <llutz> Dantonic: but make sure, there isn't something mounted when apllying that command!
[11:20] <_iksik> iceroot, where apt is gonna write this file?
[11:20] <duncan-nz> Curly_Q, good idea, but not this time. Most of the images are already inside impress.
[11:20] <ranjan> llutz:: which values .. Should I use 777-umask  to get the permission or  777-gmask to get the permission  and one more thing If I put those mounted part on network .. then .. will the network users'll be able to use that mounted part ...
[11:20] <Curly_Q> Duncan-nz use GIMP for Screen Capture and then edit the Impress image. It is that simple.
[11:21] <iceroot> Jimi_Neutral: the manual of your nas, the channel of the system your nas is using or something like that
[11:21] <llutz> ranjan: you want to have directory permission 755, then you have to use dmask=022     (777-022=755)
[11:21] <iceroot> _iksik: it should be /var/cache/apt/
[11:21] <Dantonic> llutz, ok they're gone, thank you.  Now back to making that drive read write...  Any other ideas?
[11:22] <_iksik> and there it is :-)
[11:22] <_iksik> thank You
[11:22] <Curly_Q> Duncan-nz, I learned that trick when an old Windows program did not save. I used another software to save it by Screen Capture. Works all of the time.
[11:22] <llutz> ranjan: you want to have file permission 664, then you have to use fmask=002     (666-002=664)
[11:22] <iceroot> _iksik: nice to hear
[11:22] <Guthur> Is compizconfig-settings-manager the only way to get discreet control of visual effects
[11:22] <g33kergRL> how do i open ports in ubuntu
[11:22] <Ganymede> i'm a bit confused about how i would email myself while bypassing any SMTP server...i tried: "sendmail ganymede@localhost" and then typed: "From: ganymede@localhost\nSubject: hello\n\nHello\n." and sendmail quit without error but then cat /var/spool/mail/ganymede is empty
[11:23] <duncan-nz> Curly_Q, I have no problem getting the images. They are already in Impress. I don't have time to take them out and edit them, I need a solution inside OOo Impress.
[11:23] <g33kergRL> how do i open ports in ubuntu for downloading
[11:23] <duncan-nz> g33kergRL, what sort of download are you trying to do?
[11:23] <rsk> g33kergRL you dont do it with ubuntu, you do it with your router/modem as usual
[11:23] <g33kergRL> rsk: oh yea
[11:23] <ranjan> llutz:: ok ..  now do you have any proper link so that .. I can get an proper explation on all this 7 values ..  starting from 0
[11:23] <duncan-nz> g33kergRL, http and ftp ports are open to download. but they might be blocked on a routed.
[11:24] <G_A_C> quick tar question: I'm backing up my home directory, do I need to use -p to store permissions in the tar archive, or are they always stored and I just need to use -p to extract the files with the stored permissions?

[11:24] <Dantonic> llutz, I changed it back to 000 and removed the "default" option... it seems to work now
[11:24] <iceroot> Kcwiro: ?
[11:25] <ranjan> llutz:: thanks
[11:25] <duncan-nz> OOo Impress question: how do I add a border to iimages in a slide?
[11:25] <llutz> Dantonic: fine, should have worked before too, but anyways
[11:25] <iceroot> duncan-nz: #openoffice.org
[11:25] <Ganymede> iceroot, actually, i'd like to know why sendmail specifically isn't working because i'm actually not doing this from command line, i'm ultimately going to do this from a perl scirpt that uses sendmail...and syslog and /var/log/messages is not showing anything
[11:25] <duncan-nz> iceroot, I have looked all over the place, the manual, the website, even irc, but not found the answer.
[11:26] <iceroot> Ganymede: /var/log/mail.err /var/log/mail.info /var/log/mail.warn
[11:26] <G_A_C> thanks llutz but there's no mention of tar on that page...

[11:26] <Kcwiro> iceroot: I am playing with using 'xine' for video playback and i am trying to work on improving the video playback... problem is the stuff I foudn says run 'xine-check' - problem is i type xine-check and it does not recognize the command
[11:26] <Ganymede> iceroot, ...those three logs are esentially empty, nothing explaining why my mail isn't being delivered to me
[11:27] <llutz> G_A_C: ? i havent sent you anything
[11:27] <Ganymede> iceroot, oddly enough, i could swear that the first email i sent to myself this way worked...but i've lost it...deleted it from thunderbird or something...either that or i'm going crazy
[11:27] <Dantonic> llutz, thank you for your help
[11:27] <G_A_C> llutz: sorry, I asked about tar permissions, and you used the !permissions macro immediately afterwards so I wasn't sure if it was aimed at me or the other guy you were talking to :)

[11:31] <Ganymede> iceroot, "mailq" command returns: postqueue: fatal: Queue report unavailable - mail system is down
[11:31] <duncan-nz> g33kergRL, aha, problems with torrents. Often you'll find that the torrents will download anyway, even though it says those ports are blocked. Try a popular torrent and give it 15 minutes to see.
[11:32] <iceroot> Ganymede: maybe sendmail is not running?
[11:32] <duncan-nz> g33kergRL, I can't help you with terminal questions. I don't use it much.

[11:41] <bradbook> Hi, is there a scanner setup utility?
[11:41] <beij> xsane :o
[11:41] <daniel__> hi
[11:42] <nyhcjedi> i want to set up a virtual network with 1 host and maybe 2 servers and several workstations. is this attainable through vm host only networking?
[11:42] <duncan-nz> bradbook, if your scanned uses a sane interface it should just work. Have tried the scanner utility under Graphics?
[11:43] <psycho_oreos> nyhcjedi, ask in the appropriate vm related channel (based on your vm software)
[11:43] <duncan-nz> Red_Baron, you're welcome
[11:43] <nyhcjedi> ah yea sorry i was only posting here because i want host out of ubuntu
[11:43] <g33kergRL> can anyone please take a look?  http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/415468/  i got issues about Wine and torrents
[11:43] <nyhcjedi> is that goal doable via ubuntu?
[11:44] <llutz> nyhcjedi: using virtualbox or vmware, sure
[11:44] <psycho_oreos> nyhcjedi, it probably is with the right mix of hardwares
[11:44] <nyhcjedi> ok thanks a lot
[11:44] <llutz> nyhcjedi: just needs a bit of RAM for several vms
[11:45] <nyhcjedi> i have 6 gigs on my main ubuntu system
[11:45] <llutz> nyhcjedi: that should be sufficient
[11:45] <nyhcjedi> ok great.
[11:48] <mahisastra> hi i am new to ubutu os,can any one tell me how to take linux administration test
[11:49] <mahisastra> i want to do a certificate course for linux administration
[11:49] <duncan-nz> mahisastra, you'll need to find a local company offering certification courses.
[11:50] <duncan-nz> mahisastra, but if you're new to linux then you might want to wait a while.
[11:50] <beij> LPIC is one certfication
[11:50] <beij> so i dont see any use in this :p
[11:51] <pxe> hello
[11:51] <nyhcjedi> someone in the It field said the only reason a business would use linux was if they were running 500 virtual servers does that make any sense?
[11:51] <pxe> is this the right place to ask questions about static IP and DHCP ???
[11:51] <bazhang> !ot | nyhcjedi
[11:52] <feasty> mahisastra there are some courses on canonicals shop that may be able to point you in the right direction. Some are online too. http://shop.canonical.com/index.php?cPath=21

[11:59] <bentob0x> sudo update, is this ok?
[11:59] <psycho_oreos> bentob0x, no
[11:59] <bentob0x> I mean there is a package update for the 'sudo' program, is this normal?
[12:00] <Gateway`> hello everybody
[12:00] <g33kergRL> psycho_oreos:
[12:00] <hateball> bentob0x: yep, even sudo has bugs ;)
[12:00] <G_A_C> bentob0x: yes, updates are normal :)
[12:00] <psycho_oreos> bentob0x, yes, but that isn't the correct command under terminal, it should be sudo aptitude upgrade
[12:00] <Red_Baron> who can help me further with my suspend/resume issue? :(
[12:00] <Gateway`> I have a problem concerning a disk SCSI, I can't mount because the system doesn't detect it :s
[12:00] <bentob0x> thx hateball G_A_C psycho_oreos
[12:01] <psycho_oreos> Gateway`, and the device is not showing even under fdisk -l ?
[12:01] <pxe> I am using PXE at the moment to boot compters into memtest and other stuff. I have ethernet interfaces on my server Eth0 and Eth1. Eth 0 is my internet connection and Eth1 is my PXEE enviorment. Is it possible to use my server as a route so that my PXE clients can also connect to internet for updates etc..............
[12:01] <Gateway`> I did a " sudo fdisk -l " no thing appears, and when I did " sudo lshw -class disk " the only thing that appeared is the cd lector
[12:01] <Gateway`> psycho_oreos, no :s
[12:01] <duncan-nz> bradbook, so do you still have a problem, or is it solved?
[12:02] <psycho_oreos> Gateway`, pastebin (not paste) your lspci -nnk output
[12:02] <psycho_oreos> pxe, try ##networking
[12:03] <iromli> is there any bugs with network manager? sometimes i cant ping www.google.com but works if i ping to, for example, <IP_ADDRESS> .... anyone having a similar issue with me?
[12:03] <indus> iromli, depends what <IP_ADDRESS>  is
[12:03] <pxe> Will do that thanks psycho.
[12:03] <G_A_C> pxe: yes, I don't see why not. you'd need to enable forwarding in sysctl and make sure iptables was set up fo rmasquerading
[12:03] <Gateway`> psycho_oreos, I'm not connected to internet via that machine
[12:03] <Red_Baron> who can help me further with my suspend/resume issue? :(
[12:03] <G_A_C> <IP_ADDRESS> is a google DNS server
[12:04] <iromli> indus: everything that comes in number is working
[12:04] <Gateway`> but after that command I found SCSI storage is written, psycho_oreos
[12:04] <Gateway`> so it is detected
[12:04] <indus> iromli, hmm
[12:04] <psycho_oreos> Gateway`, that is not the issue here, if you noticed I wrote lspci -nnk not lspci
[12:05] <psycho_oreos> iromli, you haven't specified dns servers
[12:05] <Gateway`> psycho_oreos, I did a " lspci -nnk "
[12:05] <indus> iromli, yes psycho_oreos is correct , whats in /etc/resolv.conf
[12:05] <psycho_oreos> Gateway`, and I said pastebin not see
[12:05] <Kcwiro> Red_hat: what is the suspend resume issue you are having?
[12:05] <Kcwiro> ...and version
[12:06] <Red_Baron> ubuntu 9.10 on MSI M670, geforce go 6100, 1,5 gb ram
[12:06] <Gateway`> psycho_oreos, ok wait I'm going to install xchat on that machine, and I'll be back ok ?
[12:06] <iromli> psycho_oreos: indus: i've tried OpenDNS servers
[12:06] <psycho_oreos> iromli, and are they added into /etc/resolv.conf?
[12:07] <SmokeyD> hey everyone, is there a command I can use to launch my default browser in gnome?
[12:07] <Kcwiro> red_baron: and what is the exact problem?
[12:07] <iromli> psycho_oreos: yes
[12:07] <DarthPuff> SmokeyD: what browser?
[12:07] <psycho_oreos> iromli, they're probably not working, try other dns servers, heck even the ones from your provider if needed be
[12:07] <Jerusalem420_> HELP! my kid was watching a movie and hit some key combo that turned on screen magnifiction. i cant figure out how to turn it off.
[12:07] <iceroot> SmokeyD: the name of the browser in terminal
[12:08] <SmokeyD> DarthPuff: the default browser as set in gnome, irrespective of which one it is.
[12:08] <Red_Baron> it enters to suspend mode, but when i open the lid, there is no display, only hdd it's starts to spins but nothing else happens
[12:08] <DarthPuff> SmokeyD: not sure, i would just change it as i changed the browser
[12:08] <iceroot> SmokeyD: hm the entry for default browser is imo in the gconf-registry
[12:08] <iromli> psycho_oreos: yes, it's odd now everything is working, but sometimes it happens ... i
[12:08] <SmokeyD> iceroot: yeah I figured that. I want a command that launches the browser that is set in gnome as the default browser
[12:08] <DarthPuff> SmokeyD: if you are coding something then just test for different browser commands
[12:08] <Kcwiro> red: so this is a laptop?
[12:08] <psycho_oreos> iromli, its an issue either with the routing or opendns servers themselves that are posing an issue
[12:09] <DarthPuff> Red_Baron: suspend in linux never really works properly
[12:09] <hayanbom> guys, what is biggest android channel' name in this server?
[12:09] <DarthPuff> Red_Baron: you will likely always have some problem
[12:09] <SmokeyD> DarthPuff: that is not what I want. I have a script that I want to launch the browser which the user set as the default browser, not one I choose for them...
[12:09] <Kcwiro> red: it is talked abotu in many cases
[12:09] <Red_Baron> many cases but no solution? :(
[12:09] <indus> Jerusalem420_, using gnome?
[12:09] <iromli> psycho_oreos: i see, thanks :)
[12:09] <G_A_C> SmokeyD: try gnome-www-browser
[12:10] <Jerusalem420_> yes indus
[12:10] <psycho_oreos> iromli, no worries
[12:10] <DarthPuff> SmokeyD: :\ then have a prompt come up the first time and ask for what browser they like
[12:10] <G_A_C> I think this is updated as a symlink to point to the default browser
[12:10] <xakh_> hey, can anyone tell me where I can go for urgent C++ help?
[12:10] <xakh_> I'm all out of options here.
[12:10] <DarthPuff> xakh_: :p do you have a deadline?
[12:10] <SmokeyD> G_A_C: thanks!
[12:10] <Kcwiro> red: you can try this if you want... cannot verify as I do not use ubuntiubuntu on a laptop..or ever suspend the machine...
[12:10] <xakh_> four hours.
[12:10] <G_A_C> SmokeyD: alternatively I think there's a "gnome-open" command which can be used to "run" a file and open it in its default associated app, maybe you could gnome-open an http:// link
[12:10] <indus> Jerusalem420_, hold on
[12:10] <DarthPuff> xakh_: yikes
[12:11] <SmokeyD> G_A_C: thanks a lot. That is a good tip as well. i'll check it out
[12:11] <xakh_> DarthPuff I know
[12:11] <Jerusalem420_> thanks man.
[12:11] <indus> Jerusalem420_, is compiz enabled?
[12:11] <Kcwiro> red: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/fix-for-suspend-and-hibernation-problem-for-laptops.html
[12:11] <xakh_> anywhere I can go?
[12:11] <Jerusalem420_> this is driving me nuts. i've googled and i've read help files.
[12:11] <Jerusalem420_> whats compiz
[12:11] <bradbook> duncan-nz: Not a problem per-se, just curious as to whether a scanner is something practical for a mom to set up
[12:11] <xakh_> It's almost done, but I can't figure it out
[12:11] <SmokeyD> G_A_C: gnome open is indeed the one I needed. Thanks a lot
[12:11] <SmokeyD> good command to know
[12:11] <G_A_C> :)
[12:11] <DarthPuff> bradbook: lol?
[12:12] <indus> Jerusalem420_, hmm desktop effects
[12:12] <Kcwiro> red: not sure if this will work but it what I found....
[12:12] <duncan-nz> bradbook, I've never configured a scanner. If they're SANE complient they just seem to work. There's alos a much simplified app for using the scanner in ubuntu 10.04
[12:12] <Kcwiro> woulld not even really call it a fix
[12:12] <Jerusalem420_> ahhhh
[12:12] <Red_Baron> thx i will try it
[12:12] <indus> Jerusalem420_, go to menu > preferences > appearance > visual effects see if its on?
[12:12] <Jerusalem420_> u set me in the right direction indus
[12:12] <bradbook> duncan-nz: The snapscan is a pretty cheap one, prob just a bad buy :-)
[12:13] <Jerusalem420_> that fixed it. u the man indus (or woman)
[12:13] <indus> how exactly you fixed it
[12:13] <Slv> sal
[12:13] <Jerusalem420_> clicked normal setting
[12:13] <Slv> nu e nici un roman paci
[12:13] <Slv> ?
[12:13] <Jerusalem420_> scratch that. clicked none
[12:13] <indus> Jerusalem420_, hmm anyways check shortcut for magnification so in future you know
[12:13] <jpds> !ro | Slv
[12:13] <indus> Jerusalem420_, nvm
[12:14] <Jerusalem420_> thanks. peace
[12:14] <Red_Baron> so i tried the solution on http://www.ubuntugeek.com/fix-for-suspend-and-hibernation-problem-for-laptops.html
[12:14] <Slv> ubottu
[12:14] <Slv> alcui este serveru asta de irc ?
[12:14] <jpds> Slv: /join #ubuntu-ro
[12:15] <hayanbom> guys, Does anybody know biggest channel's name for android in this server ?
[12:15] <bradbook> DarthPuff: Not so outlandish, Ubuntu is closer and closer to end-user bliss
[12:15] <bradbook> :P
[12:15] <Red_Baron> but when i execute "sudo s2ram", it gives me the following error
[12:15] <Slv> bradbook alcuie serverul asta de irc ?
[12:15] <psycho_oreos> hayanbom, /msg alis help list
[12:15] <DarthPuff> bradbook: linux still isn't friendly :\
[12:15] <Red_Baron> Machine is unknown.
[12:15] <Red_Baron> This machine can be identified by:
[12:15] <Red_Baron>     sys_vendor   = "Micro-Star International"

[12:15] <Slv> nu vorbiti nici unul romana :(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
[12:16] <bradbook> wtf
[12:16] <bradbook> Slv: Pardon?
[12:16] <XuMuK> hola
[12:17] <bradbook> DarthPuff: Not as user friendly as the Mac, no, but arguably closing in on Windows
[12:17] <bradbook> Considering even Windows 7 (which is excellent) contains such end-user gems as the 'Reliability Monitor' which would cause just about any housewife to lose bowel control
[12:17] <Meee> wuhey
[12:18] <psycho_oreos> !ot| bradbook
[12:18] <FooMies> Small question about grep
[12:18] <hayanbom> psycho_oreos: ok thx
[12:18] <psycho_oreos> hayanbom, no worries
[12:18] <Kcwiro> red: did you paste your log on teh attached screen?
[12:18] <FooMies> if i example wanna do this (wget --help | grep -np)
[12:19] <FooMies> Its not working, when there is this - charater
[12:19] <bradbook> psycho_oreos: That was the final comment of my conversation beginning with scanner setup utilities for Ubuntu :-)
[12:19] <FooMies> even with "" or ''
[12:19] <DarthPuff> hehe
[12:19] <psycho_oreos> FooMies, that -np makes it a switch for grep to parse through
[12:19] <antonio84> hi, do you know if is it possible see samba share through dos
[12:19] <Kcwiro> antonio : yes
[12:20] <FooMies> psycho_oreos, but if i wanna search particular parameter
[12:20] <Kcwiro> antonio : net share ...
[12:20] <FooMies> its hard, but with grep it would be faster :P
[12:20] <antonio84> ok thx
[12:20] <psycho_oreos> FooMies, why don't you do man wget and when its executed with less, use vim commands like / and then -np ?
[12:21] <FooMies> err
[12:21] <FooMies> np was just an example
[12:21] <FooMies> doesnt matter what it is -np -s or -search etc..
[12:21] <FooMies> progarm --help | grep -whatever
[12:22] <snowboarder04> what command is used to set a service to start on boot?
[12:22] <snowboarder04> i.e. like chkconfig in red hat?
[12:22] <FooMies> grep will think that -whatever is for grep
[12:22] <ortsvorsteher> !startup | snowboarder04
[12:23] <snowboarder04> !boot
[12:23] <vans> .
[12:23] <psycho_oreos> FooMies, what I'm saying is why are you making grep search for switches with hyphens in between? why can't you go through manpages and search for switches from there?
[12:24] <FooMies> psycho_oreos, i did it already ^^ it was -e
[12:24] <jatoo> can someone please help me, I did an upgrade from ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04 and am having problems. after ubuntu starts keyboard and mouse don't work at all.  if i select windows 7 in grub then it just goes back to the grub list - meaning i can't boot up windows anymore! my main concern is getting windows back...
[12:24] <Gateway`> psycho_oreos, here I am
[12:24] <Gateway`> !paste
[12:24] <bazhang> jatoo, #ubuntu+1 for lucid
[12:25] <Red_Baron> kcwiro: are you still there?
[12:25] <psycho_oreos> FooMies, k
[12:25] <jatoo> oh, thanks bazhang
[12:25] <Kcwiro> red: yes I am reading
[12:25] <psycho_oreos> Gateway`, so pastebin (not paste) your lspci -nnk output, I want to see if there's a driver loaded for that SCSI card
[12:25] <Gateway`> psycho_oreos, http://paste.ubuntu.com/415485/
[12:26] <Gateway`> psycho_oreos, yes there is one
[12:26] <Gateway`> it's http://paste.ubuntu.com/415485/
[12:26] <psycho_oreos> Gateway`, seems like there is
[12:26] <Kcwiro> red: this looks like you need to load your machine and process through the steps these talk about
[12:27] <Kcwiro> red: personally I would just go with shutdown... new version loads so fast anyway
[12:27] <Red_Baron> who is talks about?
[12:27] <noize> is lazer, inkjet, or dot matrix printers more economical per-page?
[12:28] <psycho_oreos> Gateway`, and despite that you still can't see any hard disks/optical devices through it? maybe dmesg might have some useful info
[12:28] <psycho_oreos> !ot| noize
[12:28] <Kcwiro> red: teh link you pm'd me... they list the steps to get aroudn teh unknown machine bug you mentioning
[12:28] <acuster> how does one troubleshoot connection problems with empathy?
[12:28] <Red_Baron> kk, i will try that, thx
[12:28] <noize> psycho_oreos: what channels can I go to for that question? I thought it was ubuntu related since I'm using it connected to an ubuntu computer.
[12:29] <bazhang> noize, #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:29] <noize> thanks
[12:29] <psycho_oreos> noize, its not directly related to ubuntu itself its more of general computing question
[12:29] <Kcwiro> I still hopign to get someone here who is using xine to help me out =)
[12:30] <seidl> hi! whats the ubuntu lucid channel? i forgot it's name
[12:31] <psycho_oreos> #ubuntu+1
[12:31] <daniskami> seidl: #ubuntu+1
[12:31] <daniskami> it's also in the topic
[12:31] <seidl> thx
[12:31] <Gateway`> psycho_oreos, would like me to paste bin what dmesg returns ?
[12:31] <psycho_oreos> Gateway`, yes
[12:39] <lubse> hello, I want to create a RAM disk, and I have kubuntu instead of ubuntu, does this mean that ubuntu tutorials for setting up a ram disk are still valid for me?
[12:39] <inglor> lubse, yes I believe so
[12:40] <becker_11> I am wanting to backup a personal blog using wget ... is this doable and what command should I use??
[12:41] <inglor> becker_11, this is generally not the best idea
[12:41] <becker_11> inglor: reason??
[12:41] <iceroot> becker_11: to backup a blog you normally need a sql dump, becaus ethe info is stored in a db and not in php files
[12:41] <becker_11> inglor: I want to preserve it for historys sake
[12:42] <inglor> becker_11, wget fetches the contents of the html page
[12:42] <g33kergRL> psycho_oreos:  COULD you please take a look at this? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/415468/
[12:42] <becker_11> inglor: bugger what would be a better way then??
[12:42] <inglor> becker_11: what you need is some access to the database itself, like iceroot said, an sql dump
[12:43] <psycho_oreos> g33kergRL, try the beta builds and run wine through that
[12:43] <inglor> becker_11, well, wget would fetch how the blog page looks like for someone that enters it from outside
[12:43] <g33kergRL> wine beta builds?
[12:43] <psycho_oreos> g33kergRL, no utorrent beta builds
[12:43] <becker_11> inglor:  I've got a friend having an emotional meltdown and she is about to delete her blog I was hoping to grab a copy of it to my hd in case she regrets it once she has calmed down and thought about things
[12:44] <pala> anyone here has a 64-bit ubuntu installed? i need a small c program compiled
[12:44] <inglor> becker_11, the sql dump contains the actual data from the database, what blog service do you use...
[12:44] <becker_11> inglor: that may be my only option
[12:44] <iceroot> becker_11: you need a sql dump
[12:44] <g33kergRL> psycho_oreos: but those are by definition more unstable?!?
[12:44] <becker_11> inglor: her blog is on wordpress
[12:44] <inglor> becker_11, if that's the case wget would work, but you might as well enter the blog, and click file-> save as
[12:44] <psycho_oreos> g33kergRL, its the only choice you have imo for the time being to get it to work, or seek similar linux native alternatives
[12:44] <becker_11> iceroot: it's on wordpress. Am I right in assuming I can't do that from the viewers side of the internet
[12:44] <inglor> becker_11, you have no access to the sql if it's not your data, so I guess the html contents is your best choice
[12:45] <inglor>  becker_11, just go there and click file->save as in firefox, wget is mainly used to obtain specific data from a webpage not for backup
[12:45] <iceroot> becker_11: but you cant restore the blog if you only have the html-output
[12:45] <becker_11> inglor: I could do file >> save as but there are many pages and I'm not that much of a patient man
[12:45] <g33kergRL> psycho_oreos: sorry to be unclear. it works, and rather fast too, 20 mins per episode, but im worried that all these errmsg might break something
[12:46] <g33kergRL> sorry to give the wrong impression
[12:46] <vivid> anyone that has used audio applications on linux in general, i am looking for a (preferred) gui app that will allow me to take a portion of a sound file, say 13m33s through 18m52s, and output it to new file
[12:46] <inglor> becker_11, what you're trying to accomplish is very possible with some basic coding, however that's not really an option given you're probably not too farmiliar with that
[12:46] <inglor> becker_11, so file->save as is probably your best option
[12:46] <g33kergRL> vivid: i would like such an app too
[12:46]  * HaCeRu bai frate kre ma ajuta si pe mine sa connectez un psyBNC ?????????????
[12:46] <psycho_oreos> g33kergRL, if and when it does break something, especially with the files you're getting you may as well get a proper alternative.. utorrent never comes out in linux builds, they prefer linux users to go through wine which lacks lots of capability
[12:47] <vivid> if you have any ideas, that would be great, im trying to break i live recording of my band into the individual songs that were played
[12:47] <becker_11> inglor: well I have done html myself in previous years what type of coding are you suggestion a bash script
[12:47] <psycho_oreos> !ro > HaCeRu
[12:47] <g33kergRL> psycho_oreos: yes, i will be using that too, but i really need to use utorrent now
[12:47] <psycho_oreos> !English > HaCeRu
[12:48] <inglor> becker_11, what you need is a program that wgets the contents of the page, looks for html links (inside <a href> tags) and crawls them (wgets them as well as long as they're in the same subdomain)
[12:48] <psycho_oreos> g33kergRL, no buts, qBittorrent looks similar to utorrent or you can try rtorrent
[12:48] <inglor> becker_11, if that means something to you well good, if it doesn't I strongly suggest you just do each page manually
[12:48] <g33kergRL> HaCeRu said something about help him if ... connect w/e
[12:48] <jae> Two ldap.conf files here... /etc{/ldap,}ldap.conf   But which component uses which file?  I think /etc/ldap.conf is used by libpam-ldap, but... it doesn't appear to be owned by it (according to dpkg -L).  It does appear in libpam-ldap's postinst...
[12:48] <becker_11> inglor: yep thats what I need you don't happen to have a name do you
[12:49] <becker_11> inglor: in windows it does never done it in linux
[12:49] <psycho_oreos> though HaCeRu was speaking in Romanian in an English only channel
[12:49] <inglor> becker_11, you can code it in bash
[12:50] <inglor> becker_11, btw, it's much easier in linux than in windows where you'd have to use a third party program for coding it
[12:50] <jae> vivid: looked at audacity?
[12:50] <SilverCode> does anyone know how to mount en encrypted home folder on another partition?
[12:50] <mtwipad> alright, so i use gpld code in my comerical apps
[12:50] <mtwipad> whats wrong eith this?
[12:50] <mtwipad> its free after all
[12:50] <bazhang> mtwipad, offtopic here
[12:50] <becker_11> inglor: found something
[12:51] <SilverCode> ie. my old install with encrypted home folders is on /dev/sda1, and my new install is on /dev/sdb1. When booting /dev/sdb1, I need to get files from my encrypted home folder on /dev/sda1
[12:51] <g33kergRL> psycho_oreos: yes, i am trying to to complete several downloads, on average 7 to 10 gigs per file, and i need utorrent for that. so, myquestion is, can you help me avoid possible breaking of something, or don't you know how to do that?
[12:51] <nanovim> utorrent under linux?
[12:51] <jae> g33kergRL: you *need* utorrent?  Why?
[12:51] <g33kergRL> psycho_oreos: not to nitpick, but is your help based on your preferential torrent program
[12:52] <nanovim> it will possible run under wine
[12:52] <g33kergRL> jae: read above
[12:52] <NinoScript> After a power issue, ubuntu doesn't boot, I just see the flashing '_'  that appears before grub2 :(
[12:52] <mrec> hi, is there a way to allow everyone access to /etc/ld.so.preload with apparmor?
[12:52] <nanovim> but there ktorrent or transmission
[12:53] <jae> g33kergRL: how far above?
[12:53] <vivid> jae, yea i actually already have it installed, just trying to figure out how to do what im trying to do, its what we recorded with actually :p
[12:56] <g33kergRL> jae:   please cast your knowledgeable eyes  at this and if u can tell me if there's something seriously wrong with it. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/415468/   it does work, but im worried it might make something else unstable or break it
[12:56] <lubse> hello, is it possible to add an item to the right click menu?
[12:56] <lubse> I wish to add an item called "edit with vim"
[12:56] <lolwut> Hi, anyone knows how libvirt works? I placed an iso file in /var/lib/libvirt/images and removed a disk image there, but when i connect using virt-manager, it still shows the old image and not any iso
[12:56] <Neo--> lubse, yes
[12:57] <Neo--> lubse, look at nautilus extensions
[12:57] <Neo--> or scripts
[12:57] <lolwut> I've also tried entering the full path to the iso in virt-manager, but it said it can't find it
[12:57] <Neo--> i would say that something like that probably already exists
[12:57] <lubse> I have KDE
[12:57] <lubse> does KDE also use nautilus?
[12:57] <lolwut> no
[12:58] <Guest12462> hello, i have a question about installing a newer version of openoffice to ubuntu 9.10
[12:59] <Guest12462> i am new to this irc thing - please let me know if there is something i need to do?  can i just ask my question?
[12:59] <jae> vivid: mark what you want to cut/copy, then, well, cut/copy ("Edit" menu), then... "Tracks->New->Stereo" (or Audio, whatever matches), and paste into it
[12:59] <bazhang> Guest12462, from PPA? what source
[13:00] <Guest12462> thank you - but i am not sure what any of those words and letters mean!!!
[13:00] <bazhang> Guest12462, what version did you want to install?
[13:00] <jae> Though, hmm, how to edit this region numerically, I'm still looking
[13:00] <jae> g33kergRL: that doesn't answer my question
[13:00] <Guest12462> i want to install the new 3.2, but the version of ubuntu i installed has 3.1
[13:01] <bazhang> Guest12462, ppa is personal package archive, some package more recent version of packages than exist in Ubuntu software repositories
[13:01] <g33kergRL> jae: so far, we're even on that score ...
[13:01] <bazhang> Guest12462, what version of Ubuntu you on now? 9.10 ?
[13:02] <Guest12462> yes, that is correct
[13:02] <Neo--> lubse, probably KDE also supports plugins... i just can't help with names ;)
[13:03] <jae> g33kergRL: difference is, you want something ("need" you claim) which no-one here sees an actual reason for, so... with an abundance on fine *native Linux* torrent clients, we don't see what's the fuss all about
[13:03] <lalalol> in computing it's common to use YYYY MM DD but which punctuation mark is used most?
[13:03] <lalalol> brb
[13:03] <jae> Asking for help tends to work better if you motivate the (potential) helpers
[13:03] <psycho_oreos> g33kergRL, I don't know
[13:05] <NinoScript> If I installed grub on /dev/sda3, if I want to recover it, should I do: grub-install --recheck /dev/sda3 ? it says it's not good and that I should use --force :O
[13:06] <Guest12462> bazhang, do i need to give you more information? thanks
[13:07] <jae> vivid: just enter start/end in the input boxes at the bottom... (I thought they didn't work, but I had a <1s sample, and the boxes were set to second-resolution :D)
[13:07] <bazhang> Guest12462, are you planning on upgrading to new version of Ubuntu in two weeks or so?
[13:08] <psycho_oreos> jae, some people just can't get over their holdovers :)
[13:08] <Guest12462> bazhang, i guess if that is available?  i am setting up a few computers for students to use at a homework club this week - so i was going to use 9.10.  can i then upgrade 'over the top' of 9.10?  will the new version have openoffice 3.2?
[13:09] <bazhang> Guest12462, it seems version 3.2 is shipping with that. if not you can check backports or PPA for the more recent version  search terms: Ubuntu PPA openoffice (for example) should give the necessary PPA link
[13:09]  * ayam_jago is away (Maaf! Ga terima PV selain wanita2 horny)
[13:09] <bazhang> ayam_jago, please disable that
[13:10] <ayam_jago> oops
[13:10] <ayam_jago> bazhang, sorry i use /ame msg lol
[13:10] <seidl> hi! i have a strange error: i can't edit applets in the panel anymore. also if i try to edit the keys with gconf-editor it says the keys for the panel applets are read only. anybody got an idea on how this could be fixed?
[13:10] <bazhang> Guest12462, well if it must be this week, then the PPA or backports seem the only way, as the next version is not yet released. further info about lucid in #ubuntu+1
[13:11] <Guest12462> bazhang, sorry - but i am not computer literate enough to understand your answer!  what do i actually do with 'PPA or backports"?
[13:11] <babu__> wat s the command to install google earth
[13:12] <jae> Two ldap.conf files here... /etc{/ldap,}ldap.conf   But which component uses which file?  I think /etc/ldap.conf is used by libpam-ldap, but... it doesn't appear to be owned by it (according to dpkg -L).  It does appear in libpam-ldap's postinst...
[13:12] <ayam_jago> babu__, download then compile i think
[13:13] <babu__> can't i install with apt
[13:13] <bazhang> https://launchpad.net/~openoffice-pkgs/+archive/ppa Guest12462 here is the link (lots of info there) and yes the next version due in two weeks time does have 3.2; keep in mind that PPA are not supported at all so use at your own risk
[13:13] <ayam_jago> babu__, i think earth not yet added to repository
[13:13] <bazhang> !googleearth | babu__
[13:14] <Guest12462> bazhang - thanks so much for your help - last question - what do i have to do to upgrade the computer to the new version of ubuntu?
[13:14] <bazhang> no need to compile babu__ ayam_jago ; please check the above link
[13:14] <lubse> how come my console does not recognize the find command? I wish to find out where vim is installed.
[13:14] <bazhang> !upgrade | Guest12462 please read this
[13:14] <g33kergRL> psycho_oreos: jae: "some people just can't get over their holdovers" I could say the same thing about you. Why do you wanna miss this fine opportunity to learn something new? besides, you are experts, the learning curve is not steep easy for you.
[13:15] <bazhang> g33kergRL, problem with wine app?
[13:15] <g33kergRL> psycho_oreos: jae but all the same, thanks for your time and your admission that you don't know
[13:15] <jae> Hehe, he can't even attribute properly...
[13:15] <bazhang> g33kergRL, please /join #winehq
[13:15] <g33kergRL> bazhang: it might, but i'm not sure
[13:16] <bazhang> g33kergRL, utorrent in wine surely is.
[13:16] <jae> g33kergRL: "Getting help for Dummies": you need us, we don't need you
[13:16] <bazhang> jae, no need for that
[13:16] <IdleOne> jae: please be polite
[13:16] <g33kergRL> jae: that's great, just cos you have power you are abusing that?
[13:16] <bazhang> IdleOne, hi!
[13:16] <IdleOne> morning bazhang :)
[13:17] <g33kergRL> bazhang: nah, it's good to know where he stands
[13:17] <ayam_jago> !shipit | ayam_jago
[13:17] <bazhang> g33kergRL, please remain on topic and be civil; help with wine in #winehq
[13:17] <psycho_oreos> g33kergRL, there's nothing new to learn with running windows apps under linux, windows API has always been an epic fail
[13:17] <Guest12462> bazhang - thanks so much - will do!
[13:17] <bazhang> Guest12462, your welcome :)
[13:17] <NinoScript> aww, please help me with my grub issue :(
[13:17] <g33kergRL> psycho_oreos: thanks again for your time sofar
[13:17] <bazhang> NinoScript, which version of ubuntu
[13:18] <bazhang> NinoScript, read the grub2 wiki? tried sudo update-grub per the instructions? be more specific please
[13:19] <jae> Sorry for that, people
[13:20] <IdleOne> jae: it happens sometimes, just try to remember that we all started somewhere
[13:21] <jae> IdleOne: I *do* know we all started at square one, I fondly remember my VIC-20 days ;-).  g33kergRL is another matter entirely (was that too impolite again?)
[13:22] <NinoScript> bazhang: I'm not sure how to restore it, I mean, I have a mac with an efi bootloader (refit) so I installed grub on /dev/sda3 (advanced settings on the installer), but in this command: grub-install --recheck i'm not sure if I should put /dev/sda3
[13:22] <DSpair> Hey gang, is there any way to get evince to substitute fonts when a required font is not installed and not embedded?
[13:23] <NinoScript> bazhang: it all happened after having to hard-reboot after trying a tiling window manager
[13:23] <DSpair> I just spoke with the on-line support at O'Reilly and they told me that they do not embed fonts for all of their PDFs, so the book I just bought in electronic form shows up garbled. Sucky.
[13:27] <g33kergRL> jae: interesting. i don't accept your word as gospel, so im different? your initial reaction is making fun of the noob, THAT is surely not different
[13:27] <IdleOne> bazhang: you got a minute for pm ?
[13:27] <sipior> jae: g33kergRL: take this elsewhere.
[13:27] <g33kergRL> gladly
[13:28] <IdleOne> g33kergRL: and jae let's agree to drop the subject please and get back to why we are here. Helping and getting help. thank you :)
[13:28] <sipior> DSpair: that's unfortunate. which font? there may be a free equivalent which displays properly...
[13:28] <seidl> hm i'm a bit frustrated nobody here is trying to help me with my gpanel problem
[13:29] <Segnale007> Hiii
[13:29] <DSpair> sipior: There are 6 Type 1C fonts listed in the properties which are not installed.
[13:29] <fasta> I logged into another server via ssh, got lunch and when I now type something, nothing is displayed in the terminal. How is that possible?
[13:29] <Segnale007> I am downloading xubuntu 9.10 and I am almost to burn it ... unfortunately I only have a dvd with me
[13:29] <fasta> I am using gnome-terminal and latest ssh.
[13:29] <iceroot> fasta: ssh connection is dead
[13:29] <sipior> DSpair: which ones?
[13:29] <Segnale007> will it work if I burn it on the dvd instead ?
[13:30] <fasta> iceroot, and why does it do that?
[13:30] <iceroot> fasta: because there is a idle-timout
[13:30] <fasta> iceroot, ok, how do I disable that?
[13:30] <fasta> iceroot, I can modify the server if needed.
[13:30] <iceroot> fasta: /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[13:30] <sipior> seidl: people come in and out of here all the time. restate your question every 10-15 minutes, and you'll likely find someone who can help before much longer.
[13:30] <iceroot> fasta: also its a good idea to use also screen
[13:31] <fasta> iceroot, will that keep it alive?
[13:31] <fasta> iceroot, I use screen already, just not for this.
[13:31] <iceroot> fasta: it will keep the bash opened, doesnt matter if there is an idle-timout or the connection get lost
[13:31] <iceroot> fasta: first ssh into it, then open a screen session there
[13:31] <antonio84> do you know if is possible open dump windows file on linux'
[13:31] <antonio84> ubuntu
[13:31] <seidl> sipior: well i ws used to get help here immediately - but ill try later thx
[13:32] <iceroot> antonio84: dump windows file?
[13:32] <antonio84> minidump.dmp file
[13:33] <bittyx> hey all, need a little help with making a usb stick work, anyone available?
[13:33] <xfact> Hey, I was wandering if you can help me with qbittorrent, I have 60kbps speed for normal downloading but even for well seeded torrents my qbittorrent speed stays maximum 40-50 kbps, anything can be done for making it complete 60?
[13:33] <xfact> My maximum connection limit by default is 100 in qbittorrent
[13:33] <bazhang> bittyx, work to do what
[13:33] <Gogu> Hi, How to delete a user account with all the files?
[13:33] <sipior> seidl: if you need help immediately, i imagine you can purchase support from Canonical.
[13:34] <fasta> iceroot, the physical connection was broken, meh.
[13:34] <zhxk> i see Steve George!
[13:34] <bazhang> zhxk, what?
[13:35] <zhxk> i see Steve George come to china
[13:35] <bazhang> zhxk, thats offtopic here
[13:35] <perfectdrug> hi, I think I have a problem with ubuntu one as something keeps constantly uploading nethogs says it is /usr/lib/erlang/lib/ssl-3.1 which I think has to do with couchdb
[13:35] <sipior> zhxk: uhh...wrong channel?
[13:35] <bittyx> bazhang: just to make it working (it's not now). background: it was attacked by a virus (in windows of course), and became inaccesible. tried formatting from win, but couldn't make it work. tried gparted, it reports an error when i try to create a partition after deleting the old one.
[13:35] <zhxk> Steve George is one of ubuntu op?
[13:35] <bazhang> zhxk, #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:36] <bittyx> bazhang: tried to delete all partitions from fdisk, succeeded. tried dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc to overwrite it completely, it gets to some 66MB (it's a 1GB stick) and stops.
[13:36] <bittyx> with an I/O error
[13:36] <bittyx> i guess my question is, is there anything i can do to make it work, or is it completely broken?
[13:36] <fasta> bittyx, sticks don't live forever.
[13:37] <bittyx> i know, but i hate the fact that a windows virus made it stop working :S
[13:37] <zhxk> is Steve[cug] Steve George?
[13:37] <fasta> bittyx, did you already try creating a new fs on it?
[13:37] <babu__> i downloaded the google earth....it is .bin format ....wat to do
[13:37] <IdleOne> zhxk: Did you have a ubuntu related question?
[13:37] <Gogu> Hi, How to delete a user account with all the files? Pl help
[13:37] <zhxk> thank you no
[13:38] <sudobash> my buddy has 82946GZ/GL integrated graphics and the driver seems to be working fine, compiz is working and glxinfo |grep direct says it is enabled, but the resolution won't go past 800x600 here is the xorg.conf I made for him: http://www.pastebin.org/153685
[13:38] <bazhang> zhxk, this channel is for Ubuntu support only. chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:38] <IdleOne> zhxk: you can join #ubuntu-offtopic if you wish to chat
[13:39] <sudobash> bazhang I know you can help me out if you wanted
[13:39] <babu__> i downloaded the google earth....it is .bin format ....wat to do
[13:39] <zhxk> ok, heading
[13:39] <sudobash> babu ./googleearth.bin
[13:39] <sudobash> or maybe sudo ./googleearth.bin
[13:39] <bittyx> yeah, from gparted, tried ntfs and fat32, ntfs fails, fat32 finishes but doesn't work. i've deleted the partition table with fdisk, created a new msdos one in gparted, and then i made a primary 1 fat32 partition.
[13:40] <Gogu> Hi, How to delete an user account with all the files? want to decongest my disk. Pl help. am absolute beginner.
[13:40] <bittyx> it doesn't report any errors, but i still can't access it.
[13:40] <sudobash> gogu: rm -R /home/user
[13:40] <sudobash> or you can do it with the users and groups app
[13:40] <babu__> i tried.....it shows cmd not found
[13:41] <bittyx> well, it finishes the "creating new partition" proccess succesfully, and then it does another auto-scan, and it's doing "Searching /dev/sdc partitions" but it'll never stop
[13:41] <Roasted> Question - I remember in Synaptic I installed a package which allows me (In Nautilus) to right click a file, and have "Run As Administrator" an option (aka Root). I'm looking for that package again - does anybody know what its name was?
[13:41] <sipior> Gogu: "sudo deluser --remove-all-files <username>"
[13:41] <sudobash> babu I don't know if ./googleearth.bin is the exact command you need it was an example
[13:41] <bencc> to delete all ssh keys of a user, can I just remove the /.ssh folder?
[13:41] <sudobash> ./gearth.bin
[13:41] <Gogu> sudobash: will try that and get back
[13:41] <sudobash> sudo .gearth.bin
[13:41] <sipior> Gogu: careful with that, though, and make sure you don't want any of the files owned by that username.
[13:42] <Gogu> sipior: will try that and get back
[13:42] <sudobash> Gogu you should deluser then rm -R /home/user if anything is left behind
[13:43] <sudobash> babu you need to use ./ to run bins you will have to find the full name of the bin file and you have to be in the directory it is located in so if it is on the destop from the cmd you should type: cd /home/user/Desktop
[13:43] <sudobash> then try to execute the binary with ./ or sudo ./
[13:44] <sudobash> my buddy has 82946GZ/GL integrated graphics and the driver seems to be working fine, compiz is working and glxinfo |grep direct says it is enabled, but the resolution won't go past 800x600 here is the xorg.conf I made for him: http://www.pastebin.org/153685
[13:44] <bondiblueos9> will ubuntu server 9.10 32-bit benefit from a second processor if I add one, or will it not make use of it
[13:45] <stevenmarky> sudobash: that paste is empty?
[13:45] <Gogu> sipior: i earlier deleted user. but files are intact. after executing command, it says the user does not exist
[13:45] <sudobash> http://pastebin.org/153685
[13:46] <iceroot> fasta: next time use screen :-)
[13:46] <fasta> iceroot, yes, or next time the company should maybe just replace their ethernet cables...
[13:46] <sudobash> my buddy has 82946GZ/GL integrated graphics and the driver seems to be working fine, compiz is working and glxinfo |grep direct says it is enabled, but the resolution won't go past 800x600 here is the xorg.conf I made for him: http://pastebin.org/153685
[13:46] <sipior> Gogu: then you'll need to delete the home directory and assorted files manually. (or you can recreate the user with the same uid, and then delete it)
[13:47] <sudobash> there thats the right pastebin
[13:47] <sudobash> Gogu: sudo rm -R /home/useryouwantstonuke
[13:47] <Gogu> sipior: will try that
[13:47] <coz_> sudobash,   open ccsm  go  to general options  and tellme what is listed under  "Outputs"
[13:48] <sudobash> one second using vnc
[13:48] <coz_> sudobash,  also when addressing someone   type the first 2 or 3 letters of their name and hit tab tocomplet...this way they can be alerted that you are speaking with them :)
[13:50] <Guest39308> hello, I upgraded to ubuntu 10.04 and after upgrade finishes, my system doesn't boot again
[13:50] <bazhang> Guest39308, #ubuntu+1 for lucid 10.04
[13:50] <coz_> Guest39308,  you need to go to the #ubuntu+1  channel    type   /join #ubuntu+1
[13:50] <frxstrem> is it possible to do things as another user in the terminal, similar to sudo (although not limited to "root")?
[13:50] <sudobash> coz_ does this look like it: 640x480+0+0
[13:51] <sipior> frxstrem: yes, use the "-u" switch to sudo
[13:51] <coz_> sudobash,  ok  now  you see the "New" button just below that?
[13:51] <frxstrem> sipior: okay, thanks :)
[13:51] <pionar> is there any way to downgrade to an older kernel in 9.10?
[13:51] <sudobash> yeah
[13:51] <coz_> sudobash,   what size monitor does he have?
[13:51] <sudobash> it supports up to 1440x900
[13:51] <sudobash> widescreen dell flatscreen
[13:51] <coz_> sudobash,   hit the New button and type  this   in     1280x1024+0+0
[13:51] <Parsi> can I find a .deb package for remastersys 2.0.13?
[13:52] <coz_> sudobash,  then move that to the top with the "Up"  button
[13:52] <coz_> sudobash,  then tell him to log off and log on again and let me know if anything has changed
[13:52] <ayam_jago> !update
[13:52] <Guest39308> I can not boot anything
[13:52] <sudobash> hmmm I will have to set autologin and vnc he is at work
[13:53] <bazhang> Guest39308, /join #ubuntu+1
[13:53] <Guest39308> I can not reach a terminal
[13:53] <coz_> sudobash,  ok  well at some point see if that works
[13:53] <Guest39308> thanks, I'll go there
[13:53] <ayam_jago> Guest39308, have u try reinstall or update your boot grub?
[13:53] <Parsi> I cannot get remastersys 2.0.13 updates from repo, because of 'geek' word in url ISP blocked access to its repo!
[13:54] <sipior> Parsi: time for a new isp...
[13:54] <Guest39308> I don't think it is related to grub, ubuntu starts booting but doesn't complete
[13:54] <Parsi> sipior: now I need remastersys:(
[13:54] <Guest39308> I don't want to make a new installation
[13:54] <sudobash> ahh login screen app has changed completely alright coz_ I am going to sudo service gdm restart will that work?

[13:56] <akshay> how to install gtk+ from terminal
[13:56] <home> hi, has anyone had any trouble or know anything about getting a hauppagge HVR-1600 tuner on ubuntu
[13:56] <sipior> Gogu: how did you attempt to add the user, and what was the error you received?
[13:56] <bondiblueos9> will ubuntu server 9.10 32-bit benefit from a second processor if I add one, or will it not make use of it
[13:56] <sudobash> coz_ i just restart gdm and it didn't work so I'm restarting, should it automatically force 1280x1024 or will I have to pick it in Display under Prefrences?
[13:56] <akshay> how to install gtk+ from terminal
[13:57] <Gogu> sipior: not through terminal. from system/administration/user and groups
[13:57] <akshay> help me
[13:57] <coz_> sudobash,  not sure with intell ...if this doesn work then someone can help with the xorg conf
[13:57] <sudobash> coz_ it's still stuck at 800x600
[13:58] <sudobash> alright cool
[13:58] <bazhang> akshay, what are you trying to do, please specify instead of repeating
[13:58] <sipior> Gogu: at this point, easiest just to delete the home directory manually, and remember "deluser" for future occasions...
[13:58] <coz_> sudobash,   out of curiosity   did you go to  system/preferences/display and try to change the resolution there?
[13:58] <sipior> bondiblueos9: should do, yes. what is the output of "uname -a" on the system in question?
[13:59] <akshay> bazhang im trying to recompile the kernal...so in the process i typed make gconfig....which pops an error which says gtk+ not installed
[13:59] <Gogu> sipior: while manually trying, it says i do not have permissions
[13:59] <sipior> Gogu: you'll need to preface the command with "sudo"
[13:59] <bazhang> akshay, why would you need to recompile the kernel

[14:00] <sipior> bondiblueos9: yep, the kernel is smp-aware. should be fine.
[14:01] <Parsi> how can i find remastersys 2.0.13 deb package?
[14:01] <Gogu> sipior: sudo rm -R /home/<user> command returns "no such file or directory" msg
[14:01] <bondiblueos9> sipior: are there any commands that I can use to verify that it is using both processors?
[14:01] <sipior> Gogu: then i guess those files are gone.
[14:02] <jav> Does any one know how/if I can install an _older_ version of a packet in the APT repository? Can I somehow specify version?
[14:02] <Gogu> sipior: i think its gone. will check and get back
[14:03] <jae> Two ldap.conf files here... /etc{/ldap,}ldap.conf   But which component uses which file?  I think /etc/ldap.conf is used by libpam-ldap, but... it doesn't appear to be owned by it (according to dpkg -L).  It does appear in libpam-ldap's postinst...
[14:03] <sipior> bondiblueos9: yes, htop shows a nice display, if you're into that sort of thing. top should show them as well.

[14:05] <seidl> hi! i have a strange error: i can't edit applets in the panel anymore. also if i try to edit the keys with gconf-editor it says the keys for the panel applets are read only. anybody got an idea on how this could be fixed?
[14:06] <eyal> Hi I have problem with opening tar.gz file
[14:06] <iPunk> hello
[14:06] <inglor> eyal, what seems to be the issue?
[14:06] <adifire> i wanna do java rmi program, and i'd to copy jar file of server program to /var/www/html but that dir doesn't exist.. why so?
[14:06] <bondiblueos9> eyal: tar -zxvf file.tar.gz
[14:06] <zhtx> ha
[14:06] <sipior> seidl: what are the permissions of the directories /home/<username>/.gconf and /home/<username>/.gconfd?
[14:07] <kitche> adifire got apache installed?
[14:07] <zhtx> !help
[14:07] <eyal> inglor, I exported my whole db to tar.gz file. After I import - it only restored 2 db out of 10
[14:07] <iPunk> i have a simple one how to I fix my sound
[14:07] <zhtx> There are a lot of people
[14:07] <iPunk> the quality ir horrible
[14:08] <inglor> eyal, are you sure this is a tar issue and not an export issue? what were you using to export the database?
[14:08] <eyal> I've even tried to fix it with gzrt...
[14:08] <code_> hi
[14:08] <adifire> i guess so.. kitche, apache2 is there
[14:08] <eyal> I use phpmyadmin panel
[14:08] <seidl> sipior: they are rwx------- and owned by me - it cpompared that to another machine and this somehow seem ok
[14:08] <code_> can someone help me how to start bluetoot msi adapter?
[14:08] <zhtx> :-p hello
[14:09] <iPunk> needs help on sound
[14:09] <seidl> sipior: the thing ist also: i can change gconf keys but nut the ones for the panel apps
[14:09] <seidl> sipior: others seem to work
[14:09] <sipior> seidl: and the permissions of all subdirectories are similar?
[14:09] <Shawn_> hi
[14:09] <Kangarooo> im having an update for sudo. i hope its not overtaking system and making sudo acces to some virus. what was wrong with sudo?
[14:09] <inglor> eyal, do you still have access to the database itself or are you trying to restore it now from scratch? are you also importing it to phpMyAdmin
[14:09] <eyal> Is there a way to print the content of tar.gz file on screen? or try to extract some of the files?
[14:09] <sipior> Kangarooo: uh, what?
[14:10] <inglor> eyal, also, are both your phpMyAdmin the same version?
[14:10] <bazhang> Kangarooo, an update for sudo?
[14:10] <adifire> kitche, will creating an html dir inside www work?
[14:10] <seidl> sipior: yes
[14:10] <inglor> eyal, yes, but the contents won't be flat text files since it is a database
[14:10] <eyal> inglor, Sadly I already formated the computer so I don't have access to the old phpmyadmin. I try to restore it to the same phpmyadmin
[14:10] <sipior> seidl: you haven't run X as root, or run the configuration editor via sudo, right?
[14:11] <eyal> inglor, I wouldn't know what was the previous version...
[14:11] <eyal> inglor, I just know the I have 8.04 (ubuntu) and I installed the new 9.10
[14:11] <seidl> sipior: the first thing not - the second thing i dunno
[14:11] <mathk> hi does anyone know how to test if a fifo is full?
[14:11] <seidl> sipior: i might try that?
[14:11] <iPunk> any1 please
[14:11] <seidl> sipior: or rather not?
[14:11] <Kangarooo> sipior bazhang yes update for sudo. i dont want to update that. if something was wrong with sudo then i shouldnt be using it before this update if it contains fix. but since i was using sudo before and all was good why there should be sudo update? im beeing suspicios- maybe somebody made update for sudo witch will install virus access.
[14:11] <sipior> seidl: i wouldn't :-)
[14:12] <bazhang> Kangarooo, that makes no sense at all
[14:12] <inglor> eyal, to view the contents try tar -tvf filename.tar
[14:12] <sipior> Kangarooo: you're being paranoid, not suspicious.
[14:12] <eyal> inglor, Do you think it can be different version issue? The gz file is 3.8Mb so it support to be ok...
[14:12] <sipior> Kangarooo: by the same reasoning, you should never install any security update ever.
[14:12] <eyal> inglor, it says: gzip: stdin: not in gzip format tar: Child returned status 1 tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
[14:13] <inglor> eyal, the thing is I doubt this is a tar issue, a tar file is like a zip file, this is much more likely a phpMyAdmin issue
[14:13] <seidl> sipior: i think i did but i didnt change anything
[14:13] <eyal> inglor, I wish you right... !!! I have some important tables inside
[14:13] <bondiblueos9> how do I mount a cd from the command line?
[14:13]  * iPunk desperate here a party is coming and everytime i play song with some abss it goes horrible
[14:13] <sipior> seidl: my guess is that one of the registry files is owned by root. might be worth a look, anyway.
[14:13] <eyal> inglor, The thing is that it imported only 2 db...
[14:14] <seidl> sipior: somehow i dont get where the config is coming from - i allready deleted the whole panel directories of the .gconf dir but nothing changed. should i try restarting gconfd?
[14:14] <inglor> eyal, you better wish I'm wrong since if it's a tar issue it's very easy to fix, but if it's a phpMyAdmin issue (meaning phpMyAdmin didn't export it correctly) it's probably lost
[14:14] <sipior> seidl: did you touch .gconfd as well?
[14:14] <inglor> anyway if it's a tar.gz and not a tar try
[14:14] <stevenmarky> iPunk: so is the problem your computer or your speaker/sound setup?
[14:14] <seidl> sipior: no
[14:14] <inglor> eyal, then try tar -ztvf your-file.tar.gz
[14:14] <iPunk> my computer the hifi is perfectly fine
[14:14] <iPunk> and the wire is fine
[14:15] <iPunk> cabel nor wire sorry
[14:15] <Kangarooo> security update for programms yes but this is access. ok tell me if some virus maker makes update is he able to post update without his update being inspected and reviewed by someone else too? bazhang sipior
[14:15] <eyal> again, gzip: stdin: not in gzip format tar: Child returned status 1 tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous error
[14:15] <bazhang> Kangarooo, what version of ubuntu
[14:15] <Kangarooo> 9.10
[14:16] <bazhang> Kangarooo, please pastebin you r sources.list
[14:16] <bazhang> Kangarooo, paste.ubuntu.com
[14:16] <seidl> sipior: what is saved state in .gconfd? is itz also config info?
[14:16] <Kangarooo> bazhang: can u give cmr command for outputing that?
[14:17] <sipior> Kangarooo: look, do what you want, it's your system. but you didn't build sudo by hand for your initial install, so it's a little strange to be all nervous about it now.
[14:17] <inglor> eyal, I'd try asking the phpMyAdmin people, since this probably isn't a tar issue
[14:17] <vietnam> eee
[14:17] <bazhang> Kangarooo, sure;  cat /etc/apt/sources.list   --> paste.ubuntu.com  save and give us the url
[14:17] <Kangarooo> in synaptic its not easy to copy
[14:17] <bazhang> Kangarooo, via the terminal not synaptic
[14:17] <sipior> seidl: i don't know exactly what gconfd sticks in that directory. i've tried to learn as little as possible about gconf :-)
[14:17] <eyal> inglor, is there a channel for this kind of issue?
[14:18] <seidl> sipior: ok :)
[14:18] <sudobash> it seems the xorg is ignoring the Modes line but when I change anything else in my custom xorg.conf GDM refuses to load like if I change the BuSID so obviously it is using the config file
[14:18] <Kangarooo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/415564/ bazhang
[14:18] <bazhang> Kangarooo, reading now
[14:18] <inglor> eyal, I'm not sure, really, probalby... next time I'd probably use a mysqldump command rather than a cms option
[14:18] <iPunk> ugghhh any1 please friends will be laughin at me fro installing ubuntu
[14:19] <Kangarooo> theres default sources
[14:19] <eyal> inglor, what do you mean? I used mysqldump but just chose gzip instead of sql file
[14:19] <maco> yay
[14:20] <bazhang> Kangarooo, you're fine, no need to worry about viruses getting access to your machine
[14:20] <hellz_bellz> is there any reason icant VNC into my ubuntu box on the LAN from a windows box?
[14:20] <iPunk> :(
[14:20] <bondiblueos9> how can I make my cd drive automount on disc insertion on ubuntu server 9.10?
[14:20] <sudobash> hellz bellz do you have vnc enabled on ubuntu? and are you sure your not using an alternate port for vino?
[14:21] <iPunk> srsly no1 can help me with sound and realtek drivers?
[14:21] <erUSUL> !intelhda | iPunk
[14:21] <hellz_bellz> sudobash I see vino-server running in ps -A and i cannot find what port its using
[14:22] <iPunk> not intel sound card
[14:22] <iPunk> realtek
[14:22] <Kangarooo> is it possible to make programm and its accepted so its put in synaptic theese default sources so anyone with default installation can isntall programm witch contain virus?
[14:22] <sudobash> hellz_bellz: nmap -v -v -sT <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:22] <bazhang> Kangarooo, no, no need to worry about that. You're fine.
[14:22] <hellz_bellz> how would i enable it if it does not show up?
[14:23] <sudobash> Remote Desktop in Administration I think
[14:23] <inglor> eyal, is it possible you only marked 2 out of 10 databases when you've made the back-up? the fact it does import 2 databases indicates this probably isn't a tar issue
[14:23] <sudobash> no it's in System -> prefrences -> Remote Desktop
[14:23] <tito1> hello pps  i need a big hand, my "z" key doesnt work, just that key, i was messing with keyboard shorcuts days before, worked ok till suddenly died. Is there any way to read somehow the d((ata input (if any) when i press the "z" key. i think it sends data but not plain text.
[14:24] <erUSUL> iPunk: all hda cards are a standar that intel made; realtek only does the codec that follows that standar
[14:24] <hellz_bellz> sudobash there is no on off button nor is there a configuration for ANY advanced options
[14:24] <user123> what command can I use to copy all of the contents of one drive to another, skipping all errors and making a log of the files that could not be copied?
[14:24] <eyal> inglor, no. the 2nd db imported partly
[14:24] <iPunk> ok Im following the guide will ask questions if I get stuck
[14:24] <sudobash> hellz_bellz you have to use gconf-editor to change vino settings
[14:25] <hellz_bellz> sudobash how do i do that?
[14:25] <sudobash> type gconf-editor at terminal
[14:26] <redwarp> plop
[14:26] <Kangarooo> bazhang: why not? so is programms and updates put in universe reviewed? all updates inspected what will they do? maybe in some programm is line witch executes deleting files command at random time so its very hard to know with programm has been making files to disapear
[14:27] <inglor> eyal, what's the output of file yourzip.tar.bz ?
[14:27] <bazhang> !lnw | Kangarooo
[14:27] <inglor> eyal, I mean the command file
[14:27] <bazhang> Kangarooo, please read that. there is not an issue to worry about.
[14:27] <pirearadu> has anyone problems?
[14:28] <abhilash> How do I get the public key of the website, like http://www.verisign.com/?
[14:28] <eyal> inglor, sorry - it's sql.gz file not tar.gz file... I've just noticed it now
[14:28] <hellz_bellz> sudobash thank you you gave me more help than i was able to get yesterday (which was absolutly none and i was treated like a idiot)
[14:28] <inglor> eyal, sure, still what is the output of "file sql.gz"
[14:29] <coz_> sudobash,  one more thing in ccsm in that same area be sure that  "Detect outputs"  is ticked
[14:29] <eyal> inglor, I've install Easyphp on my local PC (XP) and restored the file and it restored the only 2 db so...
[14:29] <eyal> inglor, What do you mean output? cat?
[14:29] <pixelated> 'ello all... have an issue i cant seem to fix, i use evolution for email, and all of a sudden i cant seem to send email, i still recv it fine, i tried telnet to the email server and it connects fine etc as far as i can rem using telnet for smtp... the error it gives is a 'input/output error'
[14:29] <inglor> eyal, type in terminal "file sql.gz" that identifies the file mime type so we'll know how to extract it
[14:29] <sudobash> yeah if you need anything else hellz_bellz just let us know
[14:30] <sudobash> I will try the coz_
[14:30] <frxstrem> can I create and manage users in the terminal?
[14:30] <eyal> inglor, localhost2.sql.gz: UTF-8 Unicode English text, with very long lines
[14:30] <erUSUL> frxstrem: yes; « man adduser »
[14:30] <pixelated> frxstrem, 'adduser username'
[14:30] <frxstrem> erUSUL, pixelated: okay, thanks :)
[14:31] <user123> what command can I use to copy all of the contents of one drive to another skipping all errors
[14:31] <pixelated> frxstrem, np
[14:31] <inglor> eyal, it identified it as a text file, try 2 things. either open it with gedit or another text editor.
[14:31] <joaopinto> eyal, and you should rename it to .sql
[14:31] <eyal> inglor, ok just a sec
[14:31] <abhilash> How do I get the public key of the website, like http://www.verisign.com/?
[14:31] <inglor> eyal, or try gzip -d sql.gz . and then open it with gedit.. anyway I've got to go
[14:31] <electro_> I am trying to install Ubuntu on a sunfire x4100 and I'm getting an error about no disks.  I see that this issue existed in dapper, but I am still running into the issue.  Has anyone found a workaround?
[14:32] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[14:32] <eyal> inglor, ok thanks :)
[14:32] <erUSUL> electro_: ask in #ubuntu-server ? not many people has access to that hard around here ;)

[14:32] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[14:33] <pixelated> user123, why would you want to ignore errors? that would only give corrupt files which have limited usabilty...
[14:33] <frxstrem> user123: use "cp" with the -rf (recursive and force) flags, for instance:
[14:33] <frxstrem> cp -rf /media/source_drive/* /media/destination_drive/
[14:34] <sudobash> coz_ it was already ticked
[14:34] <eyal> Anyone can help with restoring deleted file/formated partition
[14:34] <pixelated> user123, (and frxstrem ) 'cp -afp src dest'  would be better
[14:35] <iPunk> the guy who gave me the link still here
[14:35] <iPunk> ??
[14:35] <erUSUL> !undelete | eyal
[14:35] <sudobash> the driver is working obviously and it is reading the xorg.conf because when I change the BuSID it stops working....
[14:35] <user123> pixelated, for example, there are files that cannot be moved or are corrupt. I dont need those files if they are not usable. I need to transfer >200gb and I need the computer to do it alone while I do something else. I dont want to be pressing skip everytime an error occurs
[14:35] <sudobash> it's just ignoring the Modes Line for some reason
[14:35] <sudobash> it's really kind of pissing me off
[14:36] <pixelated> user123, then the f flag should do it...
[14:36] <iPunk> erUSUL,  Im not really sure what I should write in the place of MODEL
[14:36] <erUSUL> iPunk: it depends on you machine ... is a laptop?
[14:36] <user123> pixelated, cp -rf source dest???
[14:36] <iPunk> i have an acer laptop
[14:36] <pixelated> user123, 'cp -afp src dest'  would be better
[14:36] <erUSUL> iPunk: the page gives steps to find out what to try
[14:36] <sudobash> why would certain parts of xorg.conf be ignored when others are not?
[14:36] <eyal> What if I install a fresh copy of 9.10 and deleted the previous 8.04 installation (not side by side) - Is there any chance to restore db files inside var/bin/mysql?
[14:37] <user123> pixelated, thanks, and what is that option doing?
[14:37] <pixelated> user123, 'man cp'
[14:37] <erUSUL> iPunk: did you run this? « cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec » if so; what does that returns ?
[14:38] <iPunk> cant see what it returned now but It was ACL 888 and then sumthin else
[14:39] <tenmiles> eyal: why not boot from usb, mount your hard drive, and backup all your files before reinstalling anything?
[14:39] <iPunk> i have writen the model in the i pres enter and reboot?
[14:39] <iPunk> right?
[14:40] <eyal> tenmiles: you right, but it's too late for me know... I already installed :(
[14:40] <erUSUL> iPunk: so ACL 888; hold on
[14:40] <sudobash> ahh a modeline might work
[14:40] <erUSUL> iPunk: do you know the exact acer model you have ?
[14:40] <tenmiles> eyal: if you formatted then your somewhat screwed. You'd have to look into undelete programs to potentially reocver anything, otherwise it should still be there unless you've reinstalled that particular application as well.
[14:41] <coz_> sudobash,  ok  just wanted to check
[14:41] <iPunk> yes
[14:41] <erUSUL> iPunk: and it is?
[14:41] <iPunk> acer aspire 5738zg
[14:41] <Polysics> hello
[14:41] <Polysics> how can i ping a specific UDP port?
[14:41] <erUSUL> iPunk: you have to use --> acer          Acer laptops (Travelmate 3012WTMi, Aspire 5600, etc)
[14:42] <erUSUL> iPunk: so MODEL==acer
[14:42] <iPunk> ==?
[14:42] <pixelated> Polysics, you cant, you can see if a specific port is open or closed tho...
[14:42] <iPunk> not only = ?
[14:42] <Polysics> pixelated, how?
[14:42] <frxstrem> can a user be a member of more than one group, and if so, how can I view and manage the groups a particular user is member of?
[14:42] <erUSUL> iPunk: check yourself « less /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/driver/HD-Audio-Models.txt.gz » search for ALC883/888
[14:42] <pixelated> Polysics, simplest way is telnet to it and see if it connects
[14:42] <iPunk> now its MODEL=acer
[14:43] <Polysics> pixelated, telnet works on UDP too?
[14:43] <mobiGeek> I'm using Likewise trying to join a windows AD.  Getting CENTERROR_DOMAIN_JOIN_UNRESOLVED_DOMAIN_NAME error.  followed Google, no help resolving yet.  Any ideas?
[14:43] <erUSUL> iPunk: the line should be « options snd-hda-intel model=acer »
[14:43] <iPunk> Im asking about the number of =
[14:43] <erUSUL> iPunk: no caps
[14:43] <DexterLB> is there a way to make rhythmbox use jack without going through pulseaudio in lucid/karmic or it's now totally bounded with pulse?
[14:43] <iPunk> ok then i press enter and what?
[14:43] <iPunk> yeah no caps
[14:43] <erUSUL> iPunk: save the file and reboot
[14:43] <tenmiles> frxstrem: pretty sure you can just type "groups" into the terminal and it'll tell you all the groups you're a part of. alternatively, you can manage groups through the button the taskbar that has your username displayed
[14:43] <jack__> damn you De
[14:43] <jack__> DexterLB:
[14:43] <iPunk> I save it by ?
[14:44] <iPunk> how do i do that ^
[14:44] <DexterLB> iPunk: noob.
[14:44] <iPunk> yeah
[14:44] <DexterLB> iPunk: which text editor are you using?
[14:44] <iPunk> second say on ubuntu but Im a quick learner
[14:44] <iPunk> its in tern\mina;
[14:44] <bazhang> DexterLB, that language is not acceptable here
[14:44] <erUSUL> iPunk: with nano it is Crtl + O then press enter and to get out of the editor Crtl + X
[14:44] <IdleOne> !noob > DexterLB
[14:44] <frxstrem> tenmiles: no, you can't do that button on the taskbar :/ but the "groups" command works, though
[14:45] <iPunk> day*
[14:45] <pixelated> Polysics, should... if the port you are checking is inet accessable then you can use  http://whatsmyip.org/ to test the port
[14:45] <iPunk> worked
[14:45] <iPunk> now rebooting
[14:45] <erUSUL> iPunk: the key combos are in the botton of the screen
[14:45] <DexterLB> jack__: what do you mean?
[14:45] <IdleOne> ^ = ctrl key
[14:45] <Polysics> pixelated, the port is accessible, i am trying to figure out if the outbound connection is allowed
[14:46] <pixelated> Polysics, firewall?
[14:46] <Polysics> pixelated, yes, exactly
[14:46] <pixelated> Polysics, check the firewall settings
[14:47] <Polysics> if i could i would - i do not manage it nor have access to it :-)
[14:47] <jack__> DexterLB: you set off my notification
[14:47] <jack__> heh
[14:47] <DexterLB> aah
[14:47] <DexterLB> lol

[14:51] <Zolomon> What package do I want to install if I want to use haskell?
[14:51] <erUSUL> Zolomon: there two main haskells in the repos, ghc and hugs
[14:52] <erUSUL> !info hugs
[14:52] <erUSUL> !info ghc
[14:52] <pixelated> Polysics, that is a problem, what service are you trying to use?
[14:52] <erUSUL> !info ghc6
[14:53] <Zolomon> erUSUL: Aha, thanks

[14:55] <user123> I have an external mybook 500gb hdd which I use to store my data. I just plugged it in ubuntu, and a message appeared: "one or more disks are failing" and there is a red message "disk failure is imminent" What can I do?
[14:55] <pixelated> Polysics, if its an ISP port 80 is probly blocked... commonly is for alot of ISPs may want to try another port, higher in the range...
[14:55] <erUSUL> user123: make a backup of the important data inside that disk
[14:56] <pixelated> user123, backup and replace
[14:56] <tenmiles> user123: backup that data as best you can and try to get the drive serviced by the company.
[14:56] <user123> erUSUL, ok, I think that is quite obvious but then my question would be: Can I reformat or do something to fix that hdd?
[14:57] <tenmiles> user123: no, it needs to be replaced by the company
[14:57] <pixelated> user123, not likely...
[14:57] <erUSUL> user123: that warinig comes from the SMART data of the disk. System>Administration>disk utility may have more info on what is exactly wrong
[14:57] <erUSUL> user123: depending on that info you can make a decision
[14:57] <pixelated> user123, check warranty status... i think those have 3 year warranties...
[14:58] <iPunk> well i just installed amarok it doesnt seem to play music at all

[15:02] <OttifantSir> How do I enable volume on LFE/subwoofer in Ubuntu 9.10? I got it working at full volume even though the treble is completely off.

[15:05] <OttifantSir> How do I enable volume on LFE/subwoofer in Ubuntu 9.10? I got it working at full volume even though the treble is completely off.
[15:06] <arand> iPunk: Try http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/MP3:Debian and see if that works
[15:06] <pionar> OttifantSir, is it a powered sub?
[15:06] <iPunk> sorry dun have time now maybe Ill come tommorow now gotta start cleanin the apartament for the party
[15:07] <OttifantSir> pionar, I think it may be. It's on an Inspiron 9400/E1705 laptop
[15:07] <bondiblueos9> if I started a drive test using smartctl -t long, can I reboot without interupted the test?
[15:07] <pionar> if you're using LFE, there is no "volume", it just sends a signal.  Volume control is on the sub because it has its own amplifier
[15:08] <pionar> at least that's what i know from my a/v days, how ubuntu handles it i'm not sure, so i'll stfu now
[15:09] <OttifantSir> pionar: Up to 9.04 I could link Master, PCM and LFE together, so that when I changed the volume, the LFE would change volume too.
[15:09] <pionar> oh
[15:09] <pionar> yeah, idk. sorry
[15:12] <mezquitale> In virtual box, what "Network" option should I attach the guest OS if the guest OS will be providing services for other OS's?  Basically I want to test active directory in my test environment

[15:32] <hexdump_> akshay:  are you trying to compile someting?
[15:32] <bondiblueos9> so I apt-get installed ivman, in the hopes that it would just work to automount my cdrom, but it didn't
[15:32] <carlosleon> hexdump_: I see that this program uses lot of gnome thing in its commands. I've installed Kubuntu. Does it matters?

[15:33] <mobiGeek> _ruben: ah, will do.

[15:34] <hexdump_> akshay:  you need dependencies it seems

[15:48] <rcaskey> Guest93540, probably need to install some additional packages to get hfs+ support
[15:49] <iflema> !botabuse > Deetaha
[15:49] <Guest93540> rcaskey: i installed hfsplus, hfsutils, hfsprogs. anything missing?

[15:50] <hexdump_> akshay:  try sudo apt-get install libglademm-2.4-dev rather
[15:51] <sipior> Guest93540: how did you attempt to mount the volume?
[15:51] <Guest93540> sipior: mount -t hfsplus /dev/sdb /media/martin
[15:52] <sipior> Guest93540: you want to specify a partition, not a whole disk, right?
[15:52] <Guest93540> sipior: maybe useful: gparted displays 3 partitions but i only have sdb1 in /dev
[15:53] <Guest93540> sipior: the partition i want to use is not listed in /dev
[15:53] <hexdump_> Timecop:  do you have a mullet?
[15:53] <sipior> Guest93540: and if you specify it manually? also, what does fdisk say?

[15:57] <hexdump_> I'm pretty sure you can change your adapter to act as an access point.
[15:57] <sipior> weekly: typing "quota" on the target machine should indicate something
[15:57] <BlessJah> hexdump_: yes i know, i can turn every computer with linux into dhcp, router, web server, mail server, router, access point, firewall etc etc
[15:57] <pingvinqq> iflema: startup folder?:)
[15:57] <hexdump_> BlessJah:  sweet
[15:57] <sporedi> i am try to acess my ubuntu desktop using mstsc i am getting login screen but which option i suppose to select in that

[15:58] <Guest93540> sipior: it says /dev/sdb is GPT and that fdisk doesnt support GPT

[16:01] <pingvinqq> hi everybody .. is it possible to make a website free without .asdasdkas.com
[16:01] <pingvinqq> ?;)
[16:01] <ikonia> pingvinqq: what ?
[16:01] <Guest93540> sipior: i tried sdb and sdb1 - same error
[16:01] <lubse> hello, my bash says: lubse@lubse-desktop:/home$
[16:01] <lubse>  is the "lubse-desktop" my computer name?
[16:01] <sipior> weekly: do you have write permission to the target directory?
[16:01] <Mian> hexdump, I don't think grub is the problem. boot starts but not complete, it stops after mounting hard drives
[16:01] <Guest93540> lubse: yes
[16:02] <lubse> how can I change this?
[16:02] <emerson> so anyone has a solution for this problem..I've tried several in a couple of diferent ways but I couldn't get it ...
[16:02] <weekly> sipior: yeah i used chown to get write permission
[16:02] <pingvinqq> ikonia: can i make a free website without fx: .webs.com?:)
[16:02] <bazhang> emerson, install youtube-dl
[16:02] <ikonia> pingvinqq: what are you talking about
[16:02] <sipior> weekly: what are the current permissions of the target directory
[16:02] <candy> grub is not loading :((
[16:02] <emerson> bazhang: the problem is that youtube-dl no longer work...
[16:02] <bazhang> emerson, sure it does
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> Candy: reinstall it using livecd then
[16:03] <emerson> bazhang: that's why I'm asking for help .
[16:03] <pingvinqq> ikonia: can i make a free website without addons?
[16:03] <emerson> bazhang: yes I do.
[16:03] <candy> emerson, use plugin for youtube
[16:03] <daniskami> pingvinqq: do you mean a free .com domain?
[16:03] <candy> ActionParsnip, how?? I couldnot do from the documentation provided in ubuntu forum
[16:03] <ikonia> pingvinqq: without addons - websites can be made in just clean html
[16:03] <ActionParsnip> Emerson: there are addons for the popular browsers to download via browser
[16:03] <bazhang> emerson, install it then youtube-dl <URLhere>
[16:03] <ikonia> pingvinqq: you may have better luck asking in #web as this is ubuntu support
[16:03] <ActionParsnip> !grub2 | candy
[16:03] <yogesh712harish> idleone: its telling me for invitation
[16:04] <pingvinqq> daniskami: yes :D
[16:04] <emerson> bazhang: that's what I used to do ..
[16:04] <weekly> sipior: im sorry i dont know what the command is to get the rxetc readout
[16:04] <IdleOne> yogesh712harish: #java is? sorry can't help you with that :/
[16:04] <candy> ActionParsnip, how to find where grub is??
[16:04] <yogesh712harish> idleone: ok fine...tnx
[16:05] <ikonia> pingvinqq: your question is nothing to do with ubuntu - try asking in #web
[16:05] <ActionParsnip> Candy: you need to install it to the disk's mbr. The guide will show how to install it
[16:05] <pingvinqq> ikonia: no ..? but where should i so ask?
[16:05] <ikonia> pingvinqq: where I have told you to, 2 times, #web
[16:05] <philsturgeon> hey guys, i installed FTP server using https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/ftp-server.html but i need to create a password for this "ftp" user
[16:06] <gunksta> Anyone here know how to debug libvirt when the connection is refused?
[16:06] <ActionParsnip> Philsturgeon: sudo passwd ftp
[16:06] <jyraia> hello
[16:06] <pingvinqq> ikonia: in freenode?:)
[16:06] <emerson> if anybody knows how to deal with this problem can you put the information on the past bin for me, please.
[16:06] <jyraia> i get kernel panic after compile this
[16:06] <sipior> weekly: try "ls -ld <directory>"
[16:06] <hewlet> hello
[16:06] <ikonia> pingvinqq: no, in #web
[16:06] <philsturgeon> ActionParsnip: I used usermod -p XXXX ftp but its not letting me in
[16:06] <jyraia> i could see the initrd image was not created
[16:06] <jyraia> my hard disc is sata, and i disable SCSI support in kernel
[16:06] <jyraia> maybe this?
[16:06] <pingvinqq> okay:D
[16:07] <Guest93540> sipior: any ideas?
[16:07] <ActionParsnip> Philsturgeon: the command I gave will set the users password for you
[16:07] <kriston> How do I enable X11 bitmap font lucida-sans-typewriter?  I tried dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config and nothing happened.  I used to use that to enable bitmapped fonts.
[16:07] <weekly> sipior: "drwxr-xr-x 9 weekly weekly 4096 2010-04-16 08:15"
[16:07] <philsturgeon> ActionParsnip: ok, change password that way too and getting idential error "Server closed connection."
[16:07] <pingvinqq> ikonia: but .. what server?;)
[16:08] <IdleOne> pingvinqq: /join #web
[16:08] <bazhang> pingvinqq, /join #web     this server
[16:08] <pingvinqq> IdleOne: its says dont work ..
[16:08] <IdleOne> pingvinqq: what doesn't work exactly?
[16:08] <bazhang> pingvinqq, sure it does
[16:08] <sipior> Guest93540: might be easiest trying to access the device from OS X, and copy the data from there.
[16:08] <bazhang> whoops
[16:08] <IdleOne> :/
[16:08] <ActionParsnip> Philstugeon: i'd use websearches to find out what that means. Is your current user a member of the admin group?
[16:09] <philsturgeon> ActionParsnip: I've literally followed this guide. i'll have a play
[16:10] <sipior> weekly: looks fine. can you move data to that target with scp?
[16:10] <Guest93540> sipior: unfortunately thats not possible since i dont have access to any osx comp
[16:10] <weekly> sipior: yes i can
[16:10] <days_of_ruin> ignore this message
[16:11] <sipior> weekly: what's the exact rsync line you use?
[16:11] <weekly> sipior: rsync -av /home/weekly/link_to_setux_gis-data/ /media/gis/ >> /home/weekly/Desktop/gis_backup_log.txt
[16:12] <yogesh712harish> where i can find java developers channel
[16:12] <sipior> Guest93540: this might be of some use to you: http://www.haiku-os.org/articles/2009-11-18_multiboot_installation_gpt_disk
[16:13] <IdleOne> yogesh712harish: are you registered on freenode?
[16:13] <bazhang> yogesh712harish, ask in #freenode or /msg alis list help
[16:13] <IdleOne> !register > yogesh712harish
[16:13] <sipior> Guest93540: in particular, have a look at gptsync. never used it myself, but maybe it can get you out of your difficulty.
[16:13] <frxstrem> is it possible to use sudo while running from the Ubuntu LiveCD to access/modify system files (like for instance /etc/passwd or /etc/sudoers) on an installed Linux system?
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> Frxstrem: absolutely
[16:14] <funkyHat> frxstrem: yes
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> Frxstrem: use: gksudo nautilus , and you can get write access to your internal partitions
[16:14] <daMull> frxstrem: just mount the partition and do a chroot
[16:15] <sipior> weekly: is your /tmp directory full, by any chance?
[16:15] <frxstrem> well, it was really just a theoretical question, but thanks for your answers, everyone :)
[16:15] <sipior> weekly: does the "--inplace" switch help at all?
[16:17] <ZummiG777> If I install the 10.04 release of Ubuntu NOW when release time comes and I've been updating, will I essentially be in the same system state as people who installed after the official release?
[16:17] <weekly> sipior: the /tmp has a ver small amount of data in it, ill man the --inplace and see if it will help
[16:17] <bazhang> ZummiG777, yes
[16:17] <IdleOne> ZummiG777: yes #ubuntu+1 for more info
[16:17] <sipior> weekly: none of your partitions are running close to full? rsync makes a temporary copy of the data by default...
[16:18] <ActionParsnip> zummi6777: if you install any pre-release you will upgrade to the officvial release
[16:18] <nikola> help
[16:18] <IdleOne> nikola: with?
[16:18] <nikola> sry
[16:19] <ActionParsnip> !details | nikola
[16:19] <weekly> sipior: possably the swap partition gets full? where does rsync make the temp copy? i mean, last night i ran it and it got about 80% of the 300ish gigs, it just didnt complete
[16:19] <bondiblueos9> if a task is scheduled in cron, but the computer is turned off, does the task simply not occur?
[16:20] <IdleOne> bondiblueos9: correct
[16:20] <ActionParsnip> Bondiblueos9: correct
[16:20] <lubse> what is the command to search for files?
[16:20] <jyraia> someone can help-me
[16:20] <lubse> I want to know where my vimrc is located
[16:20] <jyraia> ?
[16:20] <IdleOne> locate
[16:20] <mickster04> !ask | jyraia
[16:20] <ActionParsnip> Lubse: sudo find / -iname "something"
[16:20] <lubse> ah, not find ! :D
[16:21] <lubse> ins't it locate?
[16:21] <IdleOne> find also
[16:21] <bondiblueos9> so the scripts in cron.daily, cron.weekly, and cron.monthly may not actually execute daily, weekly, and monthly?
[16:21] <ActionParsnip> You can use locate too but you will need to update the db first
[16:21] <lubse> what does / -iname do?
[16:21] <IdleOne> bondiblueos9: not if the computer is off
[16:21] <jyraia> how do i install an initrd image? or create, i compiled with make-kpkg kernel_image and don't get initrd, how i do this after compilet without initrd?
[16:21]  * ayam_jago reboot
[16:22] <pionar> bondiblueos9: from my understanding, since cron was originally meant for server admin tasks, it assumes that the system is always on
[16:22] <ActionParsnip> Bodblueos9: if the pc is off then it won't happen as the cron scheduler isn't loaded to do stuff
[16:22] <stevenmarky> lol.
[16:22] <stevenmarky> they should have used the isComputerOn() function.
[16:23] <daniskami> For systems that are not always running, there is anacron
[16:23] <bondiblueos9> IdleOne, ActionParsnip, pionar: is there any tool which checks to see if a scheduled task was executed, and then executes if it hasn't been?
[16:23] <daniskami> bondiblueos9: anacron
[16:23] <bondiblueos9> ok
[16:24] <daniskami> I assume Ubuntu Desktop sets up anacron by default anyway
[16:24] <hackel> All of a sudden, my mouse cursor got dragged down to the bottom-right corner of my screen and I can't use it.  I can sometimes pull it back up for a half-second but watch it get dragged back down.  Any idea what might be going on here?
[16:24] <bondiblueos9> there are lines like this in /etc/crontab
[16:24] <bondiblueos9> 25 6    * * *   root    test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily )
[16:24] <josh3234> what is a good freeware cloning applciation?
[16:24] <stevenmarky> hackel: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien_hand_syndrome
[16:25] <prayii> lol
[16:25] <IdleOne> josh3234: to clone what?
[16:25] <josh3234> #windows suggested 'clonezilla'. anyone here use it?
[16:25] <josh3234> harddrives
[16:25] <IdleOne> clonezilla works
[16:25] <josh3234> would you use it if you needed to clone a drive?
[16:25] <pionar> lol at stevenmarky
[16:26] <lubse> should I edit the vimrc in user/share/vim or in etc/vim ?
[16:26] <IdleOne> josh3234: I have never had the need to but I have seen many people suggest it
[16:26] <josh3234> thank you for the input IdleOne
[16:27] <gmatt00> does anybody here run EVE Online on 32-bit ubuntu 9.04?
[16:27] <gmatt00> 9.10*
[16:27] <ubuntu> witam
[16:28] <hackel> Can't imagine an old 32-bit system would be powerful enough to run EVE Online, but I could be wrong.
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> Hackel: you can run a 32bit OS on most 64bit CPUs
[16:28] <ubuntu> ping
[16:28] <gmatt00> it'll run it, but i'm having issues with 64bit ubuntu.  wondering if i should just install 32-bit...
[16:28] <ubuntu> exit
[16:28] <hackel> ActionParsnip:  True, but only if you're a complete idiot.
[16:29] <IdleOne> hackel: not helpful
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> Hackel: why? 32bit is fine
[16:29] <hackel> ActionParsnip:  I could also run an 8-bit operating system.
[16:29] <ubuntu> who is polish?
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> !pl | ubuntu
[16:29] <codelurker> 32bit is fine if u have 4G of ram or less
[16:29] <gmatt00> from somebody who knows...should i just go with 32-bit?  and use PAE since i have 6gb ddr3?
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> Codelurker: you can use 12gb usiing pae
[16:30] <aar> Hi, I can't seem to upgrade my PostgreSQL packages from <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS> without breaking dependencies (I'm using Hardy with KDE). Is this just me, or it is a known issue?
[16:30] <hackel> There is absolutely no reason to ever use a 32-bit operating system on a modern computer, unless it's a netbook.
[16:30] <ActionParsnip> Gmatt00: either is fine
[16:30] <andersbr> codelurker: 32 bit operating systems don't necessarily have a 4G memory limit.
[16:30] <daMull> gmatt: pae is considerable slower than 64bit linux
[16:30] <ActionParsnip> Hackel: my p2 233 desktop pc won't run 64bit and isn't a netbook
[16:30] <codelurker> true
[16:31] <gmatt00> thanks action, just frustrated with it.  have spent 5 days trying to get eve working on 64-bit and it's just not working :S
[16:31] <hackel> ActionParsnip:  perhaps you missed the bit about "modern computer"?
[16:31] <andersbr> codelurker: Though individual processes might only be able to access 4G each.
[16:31] <greenie> what is the command to add a program to the init file so it starts at boot?
[16:31] <daMull> greenie: man update-rc.d
[16:31] <gmatt00> would an HP DV7-3085DX be considered a modern computer?  lol
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> Hackel: its new enough for me
[16:31] <greenie> cool thanks
[16:31] <erUSUL> !boot | greenie
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> Hackel: you can get core2duo which are 32bit
[16:32] <trijntje> Hi all, I want to maximally compress a folder to upload to a server, I dont mind waiting. What is the program/format I should use?
[16:32] <gmatt00> ive got a core i7...downloading 32-bit...
[16:32] <hackel> ActionParsnip:  It might be *good* enough for you, but you cannot call it "new".  I'm trying to remember how long ago I had a machine that slow, I think it was at least 10 years ago.
[16:32] <daMull> trintje: 7zip or bzip2
[16:32] <ActionParsnip> Trijnte: bzip2
[16:33] <ActionParsnip> Hackel: its a file/backup server so it doesn't need blistering power
[16:33] <trijntje> daMull: ActionParsnip, bzip2 it is, thanks. Google wasnt very clear ;)
[16:33] <fasta> hackel, is depends on what you do whether or not that is fast enough.
[16:33] <hackel> ActionParsnip:  32-bit Core 2?  I've never heard of such a thing.
[16:33] <hackel> ActionParsnip:  And I'm not arguing that older computers aren't useful.  I'm arguing that they aren't "modern".
[16:33] <fasta> hackel, if you do Forth development on small data sets, it is more than enough.
[16:33] <fasta> hackel, if you want to run KDE, not so.
[16:34] <daMull> fasta: kde 1 should run ;-)
[16:35] <NeoCicak> hi all... i'm planning to get SSD drive & install ubuntu 9.10 on it....... but after googling a bit... sounds like 9.10 doesnt support TRIM.. also that I have to align the block properly on SSD... that sounds scarry!
[16:35] <wegandu> what is the offtopic channel?
[16:35] <bazhang> !ot > wegandu
[16:36] <NeoCicak> does anyone run 9.10 on SSD ?
[16:36] <wegandu> ubuntu offtopic channel name plz?
[16:36] <costre> NeoCicak, I don't know about that, but I have run 9.10 and 10.04 on an ssd and havent noticed anything unusual
[16:37] <prayii> NeoCicak: I dont know anything about aligning, but I do know 9.10 and 10.04 do not support TRIM
[16:37] <NeoCicak> costre : did you have to do aligning?
[16:37] <gmatt00> is 10.04 stable?
[16:37] <costre> NeoCicak, As I said, I just installed as usual, no difference at all
[16:37] <costre> at all
[16:38] <AciD> Hi
[16:38] <IdleOne> gmatt00: it is Beta can break without warning
[16:38] <NeoCicak> costre & prayii : well... i was reading quickly on the net... that one should do aligning properly to get all the juice out of SSD... due to the 4kb block deletion (or something like that)
[16:38] <prayii> NeoCicak: there is someone on the forums who has made a script that will TRIM the drive manually though.
[16:38] <ActionParsnip> Gmat00: is here, #ubuntu+1 for support and discussions
[16:38] <costre> gmatt00, Not officially, join #ubuntu+1 for more info
[16:38] <IdleOne> gmatt00: #ubuntu+1 for Lucid
[16:38] <gmatt00> thanks guys, ill take a look :)
[16:39] <AciD> I'm trying to use my video projector with lucid, but somehow no video is displayed when using the default xv driver. Any idea how to fix that ?
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> Acid: if you boot with it connected does it work?
[16:40] <h00k> AciD: Lucid discussion is in #ubuntu+1
[16:40] <ActionParsnip> Acid: if you are using lucid, ask ONLY there
[16:40] <NeoCicak> costre & prayii: are you happy with your ubuntu + SSD? is it significantly faster to start up applications? also.. how long have you had it for? does the performance degrade over time ?  if possible, can you do hdparm -t on it? i'd like to see how much faster it is....
[16:41] <aar> Hi, I can't seem to upgrade my PostgreSQL packages from <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS> without breaking dependencies (I'm using Hardy with KDE). Is this just me, or it is a known issue?
[16:41] <prayii> NeoCicak: I don't have one yet. Just been doing research as am thinking of getting one soon as well.
[16:42] <frxstrem> can I make another user log out through the shell?
[16:43] <switch10_> prayii: NeoCicak with your SSD's, you would just put the /boot partition on it correct?
[16:43] <costre> NeoCicak, My ssd is quite old, one of the first. The computer boots really fast, it could be ubuntu, the drive, or both. hdparm outputs 460 MB in  3.01 seconds = 153.01 MB/sec
[16:43] <bondiblueos9> whenever I run apt-get, I'm getting unusual messages after it should be finished
[16:43] <bondiblueos9> here is me installing anacron: http://pastebin.com/M4rhhe45
[16:43] <drtomdanger> hello room
[16:43] <bondiblueos9> line 17 is where it starts
[16:44] <NeoCicak> switch10 : ummmm i dont have one yet... but to answer your question... i'm going to use it for all my data, application, etc too.... (i'm going to use it on my laptop)
[16:44] <NeoCicak> costre: thx :)
[16:44] <drtomdanger> switch10_: stayed up all night updating my ipod finally. ; )
[16:44] <switch10_> NeoCicak: gotcha..  I was thinking about picking a small one up and just putting /boot on it..
[16:45] <switch10_> drtomdanger: right on man.
[16:46] <frxstrem> how can I log anouther user out from the system using the terminal?
