[03:58] <sizzlefire> hey can somebody help me, after I updated my computer from 9.10 to 10.04 I can only start in failsafe graphics mode
[03:58] <xray_tsk> LinOOb: anyway, when you did install ubuntu, the first bootable drive was win7 drive. Therefore GRUB was installet there.
[03:58] <xray_tsk> LinOOb: you can disconnect win7 drive and boot from ubuntu's cd or dvd
[03:58] <edbian> Frijolie, Bug in Ubuntu
[03:59] <xray_tsk> LinOOb: as far as I remember it have some repair functions there
[03:59] <edbian> Frijolie, Hibernation is really hard to write apparently without the help / input of hardware vendors
[03:59] <LinOOb> when I tried to install Ubuntu - the windows 7 drive was out of the machine - I tried to load UBU on a new drive
[03:59] <istevenmon> hi guys, is there any software i could use to configure VRRP on my ethernet nics connected to different ISP ?
[03:59] <xray_tsk> LinOOb: did you installed GRUB to MBR?
[04:00] <suicidepills> i'm having trouble with my webcam on my netbook.  it doesn't seem to be detected by ubuntu.  where should i start?
[04:00] <xray_tsk> LinOOb: the second thing you should to heck is bootable flag of partitions.
[04:00] <Frijolie> edbian, I can understand that part. Maybe disconnect all /media prior to hibernation and "discover" again upon resume?
[04:00] <tucemiux> my printer is printing really faded, anykone knows if it's saving ink or if it's just wasting it?
[04:00] <acovrig> how do I change my default editor (cmd-line)
[04:00] <Frijolie> edbian, i'm sure there's a lot more to it than that :P
[04:00] <xray_tsk> LinOOb: sorry, to check.
[04:00] <edbian> Frijolie, Are you suggesting that is what the script should do or that is what the Ubuntu developers should have the system do?
[04:00] <LinOOb> Xray:  Windows 7 working on drive-pull out drive - put in new drive - boot to live cd - try to install - install fails - remove new drive - put in windows 7 drive again - now win 7 wont boot - error about grub rescue - how in the world is that possible
[04:00] <xray_tsk> LinOOb: not to "heck" XD
[04:01] <Frijolie> edbian, i was suggesting the kernel devs implement for me personally
[04:01] <edbian> LinOOb, The raid card has the bootloader and not the hdd
[04:01] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: check this: http://siag.nu/pen/vrrpd-linux.shtml
[04:01] <xray_tsk> LinOOb: okay, you really did GRUB installation.
[04:01] <Wassim> Hey everyone. Complete newbie here. Apologies if this is completely ignorant, but I want to install software on my Ubuntu machine. I do not have internet on that machine, so I downloaded it from another computer and transferred it with a USB key. The file is a tar.gz and I have no idea how to install it.   That would be great wouldn't it? :)
[04:01] <LinOOb> edbian - I think you got it - I did recently enable raid
[04:01] <xray_tsk> LinOOb: if the question is to boot win7, you should use fixboot and fixmbr
[04:01] <istevenmon> greezmunkey: thanks
[04:02] <xray_tsk> LinOOb: and check bootable flag.
[04:02] <edbian> Frijolie, They're working on it I'm sure.  Lots of people know that hibernation doesn't work right.  It's a well known problem.  The reason it sticks around is that it doesn't work in a different way for each person.  For me everything worked fine except that I couldn't get out of hibernation!
[04:02] <LinOOb> I did fix win 7 my question is why is Grub loading to my raid I guess?  By the way my raid drives are disconnected
[04:02] <xray_tsk> LinOOb: it should be set to the win7's service partition (usually ~100 mb)
[04:02] <codebrainz> Wassim, much easier if you can find .deb files for ubuntu/debian rather than the source code
[04:02] <xray_tsk> LinOOb: you grub was installed when you tried installation, that failed.
[04:02] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: good luck with that, but I hope you don't think you will end up with twice the bandwidth, or anything like that.
[04:02] <LinOOb> Xray - IM lost - the Win 7 drive was never in the machine - it should have nothing to with linux
[04:03] <LinOOb> let me try and clarify -
[04:03] <Frijolie> edbian, yeah Ive heard bout many hibernation woes but I guess I've gotten off pretty easy if this was the only thing I've noticed. *buntu has come a long way since I've started so I don't have much to complain about.
[04:03] <LinOOb> when i put in the new drive - the machine wont even get far past post - I assumed it had something to with raid being enabled- drives setup and then drive removed without turing of raid
[04:03] <istevenmon> greezmunkey: no no, i understand the theory behind it
[04:04] <LinOOb> well - lets drop it for now - I am moving all data off raid - and removing all drives and disabling raid
[04:04] <Wassim> Codebrainz: Interesting. Let me try to find ndiswrapper.
[04:04] <LinOOb> and trying again
[04:04] <edbian> Frijolie, The real power of linux is that you have the tools to fix the problem yourself.  Like I said, there is almost definitely a script to solve that problem :)
[04:04] <Textmode> Wassim: tar.gz is litterally a Gziped, tar-archive. aka a "tarball". its just an archive, and usually contains sourcecode, or loose files.
[04:04] <LinOOb> edbian - your saying grub somehow loads to raid in memory?  the raid drives were disconnected during the attempted live cd install
[04:04] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: cool, you may also check out xincom, they make purpose built internet failover equipment that is rather cheap, but effective.
[04:04] <codebrainz> Frijolie, edbian presumably something is going wrong/not normal, because it does work for most people i think
[04:05] <sizzlefire> Is there any way to force ubuntu to start in low graphics mode by default? right now it just starts to a black screen and refuses to load further
[04:05] <Frijolie> codebrainz, edbian Truth be told I have only started noticing this since the upgrade to 10.04
[04:05] <Frijolie> codebrainz, edbian didn't they drop HAL in Lucid for something else?
[04:06] <Jordan_U> LinOOb: Can you connect all of the various drives and run this script http://sourceforge.net/projects/bootinfoscript/ ? That should clear upt exactly what is where.
[04:06] <istevenmon> greezmunkey: i want to try to set all this up with a linux server. just want to make a proof of concept, not a production service
[04:06] <edbian> LinOOb, You have a card that handles all the harddrives and is the raid.  That has the bootloader on it.  That is what grub is installed on.
[04:06] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: prove away! :)
[04:07] <edbian> Frijolie, They did drop HAL.  I have no idea what they use now.  That may be the source of the problem
[04:07] <LinOOb> Ok understood - now what?  Do I need to do anything to clear that?  I did a bootrec.exe fixmbr from the repair prompt to get Windows 7 boothed again
[04:07] <un214> anybody know one good reason why I should not junk upstart?
[04:08] <istevenmon> greezmunkey: something i need help with is how to measure response times, when failure comes
[04:08] <codebrainz> un214, any good reason(s) to junk it?
[04:08] <un214> fastest way to get rid of plymouth & mountall
[04:09] <un214> [I have plenty good reasons to dump those two]
[04:10] <codebrainz> un214, what's the prob?  concurrent fsck's on same disk or something?
[04:10] <un214> well that was one of them
[04:10] <un214> plymouth splash = loads bad hw drivers
[04:11] <un214> plymouth is one minor bug away from crazy error states
[04:11] <jbAU> hey all - does anyone how to increase /var/run ?
[04:11] <jbAU> i have a server that only has 1mb of space on varrun - can't find any documntation
[04:12] <un214> trying to unwire mountall from plymouth looks like a lost cause
[04:12] <Random832> jbAU: type 'mount' to find out what filesystem is on there
[04:12] <jbAU> it's a tmpfs
[04:12] <Cmdrbubbles> anyone willing to help a xubuntu noob with a wine install?
[04:12] <jbAU> though i can't find the mount in /etc/fstab
[04:12] <un214> jbAU: you won't
[04:12] <un214> it's automouted by bootscripts
[04:12] <jbAU> right
[04:12] <jbAU> i read that it's supposed to be half of what the ram is
[04:13] <un214> tmpfs appears to be always full
[04:13] <xangua> Cmdrbubbles: sudo apt-get install wine
[04:13] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: ok, If I may ask, why is the failover time (or length thereof) important, as long as the failover occurs?
[04:13] <Random832> jbAU: are you actually getting write errors, or just it's telling you in df there's no space
[04:13] <Cmdrbubbles> ive installed the wine program
[04:13] <codebrainz> un214, plymouth isn't tied to upstart though right? can't you ditch it and keep upstart?
[04:13] <jbAU> samba is complaining unable to write to /var/run
[04:13] <un214> codebrainz yeah that's right but the bootscripts still go
[04:13] <Random832> un214: my tmpfs reports 509MB available
[04:13] <Random832> jbAU: how much stuff do you have on there?
[04:14] <Random832> df /var/run
[04:14] <jbAU> about 1g
[04:14] <jbAU> ah
[04:14] <jbAU> yes it is 1gig
[04:14] <Random832> [to at least tell if it's full or small]
[04:14] <un214> then you have swap
[04:14] <Random832> and it's full?
[04:14] <istevenmon> greezmunkey: i want to compare results with CARP, so i need some statistics
[04:14] <jbAU> server has 2gig of membeory
[04:14] <sizzlefire> In ubuntu if I boot my monitor shows as Unknown, how would I go about fixing that?
[04:14] <Random832> my /var/run has 220kb of stuff on it
[04:14] <Random832> so, the real question is
[04:14] <Random832> what on earth is taking up so much space?
[04:14] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: any active tcp/udp connections are going to fail when the failover completes because the public IP is going to change, i.e the source address that is.
[04:14] <codebrainz> un214, i've found upstart to be pretty seamless, from a couple basic installs, but it seems mostly backwards compatible, so I've not had to change myself at all
[04:14] <jbAU> samba messages database
[04:15] <jbAU> messages.tdb
[04:15] <Random832> that's how big?
[04:15] <jbAU> 1gig
[04:15] <jbAU> 1.2gig
[04:15] <un214> codebrainz: it's backwards compatabile until you try to think about what /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit used to do
[04:15] <istevenmon> greezmunkey: there is no way to prevent this active connection to fail?
[04:16] <Random832> stop samba, delete the file, and restart samba
[04:16] <bricky> anybody compiled a broadcom wifi device driver on here?
[04:16] <Random832> what gets stored in messages.tdb?
[04:17] <Random832> wait... is messages.tdb really that lage?
[04:17] <jbAU> samba messages apparently - it looks like a bug
[04:17] <Random832> du /var/run/..whatever../messages.tdb
[04:17] <jbAU> shouldn't be that large normally
[04:17] <Random832> ls won't tell you how much space it's taking
[04:18] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: I don't see that there could be one, think of it from the point of view of an extablished connection inside your lan to an Internet website...The website is busy sending responses to your current public IP, then wham, your system changes the public IP ( the source address) what are the existing connections to do other than fail?
[04:18] <jbAU> yer it's def 1.2gig
[04:18] <jbAU> i'll have to shut it down
[04:18] <Random832> [it's a database, i don't trust databases not to be sparse files]
[04:18] <Random832> ok, yeah
[04:18] <Random832> wow
[04:19] <sili_> I'm compiling a kernel with make-kpkg --initrd, but when I install the resulting .debs, the initrd is not installed or found in /boot. Any ideas
[04:19] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: if you were to work out a MLPPP connection over two links to your isp, the bonded connection shares the same public (virtual) IP, hense a failure of either one would go undetected, a slowdown would be percievable, but it would keep working.
[04:20] <istevenmon> greezmunkey: hehehe i know, somehow i didnt think about it till now ^^, anyway i need to compare both protocols VRRP and CARP for system requirements, downtime, network flow, bonding
[04:20] <amwgpw> ??
[04:20] <amwgpw> 还是英文的
[04:20] <amwgpw> 汗
[04:20] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: neither one will work for bonding the way I understand it, I could be wrong.
[04:21] <damian_-_> anyone know how i can join an  image + mp3 for youtube. i installed avidemux but it doesnt seem to be able to import either images or mp3's
[04:21] <a3Dman> Ubuntu one ftw
[04:21] <damian_-_> im a musician
[04:22] <mankash> I have installed wifi card, it is not working
[04:23] <istevenmon> greezmunkey: but i mean bonding for users in the network, one user goes out for a specific connection to one IP and other to the other pucblic IP?
[04:23] <codebrainz> sili_, tried mkinitramfs or update-iniramfs?
[04:23] <switch10_> damian_-_: pitivi, openshot, and kino will do that.
[04:23] <damian_-_> ahh thank you
[04:24] <sili_> codebrainz: no, I'm a noob
[04:24] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: vrrp will run on one circuit only, unless a failure is detected, then it will fail over - the way I see it.
[04:24] <john> urgent help needed to configure my broadband modem(wireless) in ubuntu 10.04
[04:24] <codebrainz> sili_, then why are you recompiling the kernel?   :)
[04:24] <sili_> codebrainz: cause the brightness button on my laptop won't work
[04:24] <john> windows XP is detecting my network, but ubuntu doesnt:-(
[04:25] <codebrainz> sili_, are you sure it's not just a couple acpi script you need?
[04:25] <istevenmon> greezmunkey: i thought these two protocols create a virtual ip address just like channel bonding MLPPP
[04:25] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: you may be able to create a load sharing configuration though, that would work as you describe -
[04:25] <sili_> codebrainz: pretty sure.
[04:25] <codebrainz> sili_, what kind of laptop?
[04:26] <sili_> x201. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi/+bug/584635
[04:26] <sili_> I'm trying to apply the patch there
[04:26] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: that would have to be arranged between you and your isp - most isp's will sell that service to you. Between you and two desparate isps is a non starter, don't waste your time.
[04:27] <istevenmon> greezmunkey: yeah
[04:28] <codebrainz> sili_, anyway, if you've already installed the new kernel, try 'update-initramfs'
[04:28] <greezmunkey> istevenmon: If you want high availablity, check with your isp about installing a bonded connection. It will use mlppp, and will do what you want to do, and you get the benefit of greater bandwidth.
[04:28] <jrgp> how can I make grub boot to a flash drive?
[04:30] <sili_> codebrainz: that seems to work. Reboot!
[04:30] <codebrainz> jrgp, same way as an internal drive :)
[04:30] <jook> I have a boot error that doesn't really make sense. "The disk drive /media/sdc3 is not ready yet or not present. Continue to wait; or press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery." But there is no longer an sdc3. I deleted it and merged the space into sdc2.
[04:31] <codebrainz> jook, is it still in /etc/fstab?
[04:31] <greezmunkey> jook, what about your fstab file?
[04:31] <jook> I don't know what that means.
[04:31] <subone> Everytime I start a video, no matter what application I use to play it, the screen goes black for a moment before it plays. Also, when I play a dvd the screen goes blank for a moment every time the chapter changes. Any help?
[04:31] <codebrainz> subone, and?
[04:31] <jrgp> codebrainz: making sure the device exists in the devmap file and adding the entry to the menu.lst results in "disk not found"
[04:32] <greezmunkey> subone: have you tried a differant dvd?
[04:32] <sili_> codebrainz_: fail :(
[04:32] <codebrainz> sili_, is there an initrd.img file in /boot though?
[04:32] <jook> What's fstab, and how do I see what's up with it?
[04:32] <mankash> lspci showing wifi card, iwlist scan also shows some acess point but how to coonfigure it
[04:32] <sili_> codebrainz: yes, and I ran update-grub.
[04:33] <Jordan_U> jrgp: The device.map is irrelevent in this case. Does your BIOS support USB?
[04:33] <sili_> I got an error about no /dev
[04:33] <john> sir plz help with my modem
[04:33] <codebrainz> sili_, how did you go about compiling the kernel?
[04:33] <jrgp> Jordan_U: the operating system can see the device, but the bios is too old to be able to boot from it. This is why I want to use the existing grub installation on the HD to boot to the flash drive, which has a debian install on it
[04:33] <edbian> jook, I'm leaving after this.  /etc/fstab lets you tell the system how to mount specific devices when they're connection.  Here is a great tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
[04:33] <sili_> make-kpkg --initrd kernel_image kernel_headers --append-something=-custom
[04:34] <jook> edbian: thjanks, I'll take a look
[04:34] <sili_> make-kpkg clean
[04:34] <sili_> fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers
[04:34] <codebrainz> sili_, did you use the vanilla kernel?  or recompile your existing kernel?  using your old configuration from ubnut?
[04:35] <codebrainz> *ubuntu
[04:35] <Jordan_U> jrgp: grub legacy won't allow you to do that, it can only read from drives that the BIOS can read from. GRUB2 has native USB drivers, though for the best USB support you'd want to use the latest bzr version of grub2.
[04:35] <sili_> I used git to checkout ubuntu-lucid, then I applied that small one line patch to an intel driver
[04:35] <bemis> is there a specific channel for maverick tinkering, or is in here adequate?
[04:35] <Jordan_U> bemis: #ubuntu+1
[04:35] <jrgp> Jordan_U: thanks
[04:35] <codebrainz> sili_, did you use the existing config file though?
[04:35] <Jordan_U> jrgp: You're welcome.
[04:35] <bemis> Jordan_U, thanks
[04:36] <Jordan_U> bemis: You're welcome.
[04:36] <john> can any1 help with my wireless modem
[04:36] <codebrainz> Jordan_U, merci beaucoups
[04:37] <sili_> codebrainz: hmm. Imma check.
[04:37] <Cmdrbubbles> need help with wine
[04:37] <sili_> codebrainz: This is what I used: http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu. I'll start over from scratch
[04:37] <john> need help with broadband
[04:37] <subone> codebrainz: what do you mean and? How do I stop the blanking?
[04:37] <john> hey.......................
[04:37] <jook> codebrainz, if I just delete the line for sdc3 in fstab, will it solve the error?
[04:38] <codebrainz> sili_, if you copy over the config-blah file from your last kernel into your new kernel sources and run makemenu config with that (make oldconfig?) then it will use all those settings.
[04:38] <codebrainz> subone, it's your graphics card/monitor changing modes, it's normal
[04:38] <Jordan_U> codebrainz: je vous en prie
[04:38] <sili_> codebrainz: cool. thanks
[04:38] <john> hey u hackers
[04:39] <john> cant u hear me
[04:39] <john> i am shoutin here
[04:39] <subone> codebrainz: modes? No mode is changed though I stay at the same resolution, and why would it be normal to have blackness 20 times in the middle of watching a dvd?
[04:39] <jook> greezmonkey, if I just delete the line about sdc3 in fstab, will that solve the error?
[04:40] <hanasaki> how can the gdm greeter them be changed
[04:41] <tucemiux> jook, what problem are you having? all in one line
[04:41] <zhanglin> +I
[04:41] <codebrainz> hanasaki, revert to a good gdm :)  (no idea)
[04:42] <jook> tucemiux I will paste what I said before:  I have a boot error that doesn't really make sense. "The disk drive /media/sdc3 is not ready yet or not present. Continue to wait; or press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery." But there is no longer an sdc3. I deleted it and merged the space into sdc2.
[04:42] <codebrainz> sili_, Jordan_U, subone, jook I'm out.  Happy canada day
[04:42] <subone> :(
[04:42] <jook> ciao codebrainz. thanks
[04:42] <subone> Happy canada day?
[04:42] <Kyngdom> is anyone around that has damn small linux or betaftpd experience?
[04:42] <Kyngdom> im about to pull my hair out
[04:43] <subone> Can anyone else help me with my screen blanking issue?
[04:43] <bemis> jook, removing sdc3 from fstab should solve that
[04:44] <jook> thanks bemis. I'll give it a shot.
[04:44] <WebWalker> test
[04:44] <greenjon> WebWalker: test successful? :)
[04:45] <tucemiux> jook, yes, you can delete the line in your fstab and it'll go away, you can test it right now, close all your file and then issue:  sudo mount -a,  you should get an error about a device not existing, delete the line from /etc/fstab, sudo mount -a, problem solved
[04:45] <IdleOne> Kyngdom: try #dsl
[04:45] <damian_-_> switch10_ what would you consider the best. any recommendations
[04:45] <Kyngdom> thanks IdleOne
[04:45] <tucemiux> Kyngdom, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:45] <mankash> what is ubuntu linux version
[04:45] <Jim345> i'm running compiz and emerald and for some reason my title bars disappeared so i can't move the windows.  if i right click on the program on the bottom panel and click "move" i can't move it either
[04:46] <bullgard4>  /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32/drivers/video/console/bitblit.c "explains" the function of the loadable kernel module »bitblit« as  "BitBlitting Operation". What is a bitblitting operation?
[04:46] <greenjon> !hi | WebWalker
[04:46] <IdleOne> !10.04 | mankash
[04:46] <jook> tucemiux: I commented out the sdc3 line and ran that. No error. I'm good? Thanks!
[04:46] <WebWalker> hi greenjob
[04:46] <WebWalker> sorry greenjon
[04:47] <mankash> what is the version of linux it is using?
[04:47] <greenjon> WebWalker: hey. what is the problem you're having?
[04:47] <john> need help with Wi-fi modem
[04:48] <john> #ubuntu-in
[04:49] <IdleOne> mankash:  2.6.32-22
[04:49] <mankash> thx
[04:49] <mankash> I want to upgrade my ubuntu machine
[04:50] <mankash> it is showing upgrading to 9.04
[04:50] <jrgp> mankash: what is it doing?
[04:50] <tucemiux> mankash, what co you have currently? 8.10?
[04:50] <tucemiux> **do***
[04:50] <mankash> how to check
[04:50] <IdleOne> mankash: run lsb_release -a
[04:50] <IdleOne> in temrinal
[04:50] <IdleOne> terminal*
[04:51] <mankash> yes it is 8.10
[04:52] <tucemiux> mankash, if you want to upgrade to 10.04 you might as well do it cleanly from an ISO, you cant upgrade from 8.10 to 10.04
[04:52] <mankash> so first I need to upgarde to 9.04
[04:52] <IdleOne> mankash: that is correct then from 8.10 you will go to 9.04
[04:52] <mankash> no prob
[04:52] <TKO_Jay> hi there
[04:52] <TKO_Jay> hows it going
[04:52] <IdleOne> mankash: like tucemiux said you can do a clean install of 10.04
[04:52] <mankash> what is new  in 10.04
[04:52] <un214> does debian latest use plymouth?
[04:52] <IdleOne> mankash: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidLynx/ReleaseNotes
[04:53] <IdleOne> un214: #debian
[04:53] <GTroy> possibly off topic, what's the best way to 'give back' to ubuntu without being a great coder?
[04:53] <greenjon> !hi | TKO_Jay
[04:53] <un214> well since ubuntu's plymouth caused my problem ...
[04:53] <TKO_Jay> hooray
[04:53] <IdleOne> un214: ok so how does that translate to debian and make it ontopic for this channel?
[04:53] <jef91> So I currently have OSX and Windows 7 install on my hardrive - I would like to add 10.04 in the mix, however it will not let me resize my Windows partition because it does not recognize it as ntfs. It will not let me mount it via cli or gui and gparted will out offer to remove the partition - not resize.
[04:54] <un214> maybe somebody knows what happens if I mix repository sources
[04:54] <tucemiux> GTroy, you should ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:54] <IdleOne> un214: it could possibly break more then it already is
[04:54] <TKO_Jay> is it possible to have a dhcp3 server on an ubuntu server at a central location (<IP_ADDRESS>), and have it give out ip addresses to clients connecting from a different subnet (<IP_ADDRESS>) through a site-to-site VPN at satellite offices ?
[04:54] <GTroy> tucemiux: done, thanks
[04:54] <un214> I was afraid of that
[04:56] <tucemiux> jef91, [ntfs-freespace][osx-nofreespace], if that is your set up you have to get rid of os, free up space from windows, then create an extended partition using the space
[04:56] <Dfcnvt1> hello
[04:57] <bullgard4>  /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32/drivers/video/console/bitblit.c "explains" the function of the loadable kernel module »bitblit« as  "BitBlitting Operation". What is a bitblitting operation?
[04:57] <TKO_Jay> any ideas... ?
[04:57] <IdleOne> hello Dfcnvt1
[04:58] <jef91> What do you mean tucemiux?

[04:58] <tucemiux> jef91, how did you install your osses?? what does your hard drive look like?
[04:58] <opij> I subscribe to a VPN/proxy service and am able to do remote forwarding on certain ports (5 ports, not of my choosing). Is there anyway I can setup a firewall to block all connections that aren't going through the VPN and still do remote port forwarding?
[04:58] <Dfcnvt1> Anybody knows?
[04:59] <greezmunkey> TKO_Jay: check this, and the one following: http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/forums/showthread.php/524-dhcpd-unable-to-serve-multiple-subnets
[04:59] <jef91> tucemiux sda1 = fat32 sda2 = hfs+ sda3 and sda4 read as unknown

[04:59] <Dfcnvt1> This is what I tried, "x11vnc -bg -many -forever -display :0 -ncache 0" (without quote)

[05:01] <tucemiux> jef91,  so you want to use sd4??  Make sure you have nothing in sd4, delete it then create an extended partition, install lucid on the extended partition
[05:02] <TKO_Jay> greezmunkey:
[05:02] <TKO_Jay> checking now - thanks very much
[05:02] <tucemiux> jef91, create the extended partition then create a partition in the extended partition
[05:02] <greezmunkey> TKO_Jay: it's easy, good luck :)
[05:03] <jef91> but why can't it see/mount the ntfs partition tucemiux?
[05:03] <Shadow> Uhm...I'm not sure what my problem is here...I am using chrome, but it is the same in firefox...If I go on certain flash pages the whole flash is kind of squashed together, and cut off in places, despite there being plenty of room on the page...Is that something to do with my display settings that I can change?
[05:03] <greezmunkey> TKO_Jay: one thing to remember, make sure your networking gear supports dhcp relay ;)
[05:05] <red2kic> Shadow: Tell the certain websites to adapt to HTML5 already. Other than that, try updating your Flash to latest. I updated my Firefox to latest and it did whine about flash though.
[05:05] <tucemiux> jef91, [A][B][C] -- you can only resize C, you cannot delete space from A or B and create a new partition furthermore, if you already have 4 primary partitions that is it, you cant create more, you can have 3 primary partitions and 1 extended partition, in the extended partitions you can have as many partitions as you want
[05:05] <Shadow> red2kic I will check the flash page and see if I have the latest..
[05:06] <kickingintender> i have filed bugs a week ago but still no response from devs
[05:06] <jef91> I under stand all of that tucemiux.
[05:06] <jef91> But why can't I read the ntfs partition data?...
[05:06] <sha1sum> anybody know of a good, _STANDALONE_, sound-reactive visualization app for X that doesn't depend on any particular media player?
[05:06] <tucemiux> jef91, you cant read the ntfs using OSX?
[05:07] <TomT64> that's weird
[05:07] <opij> I subscribe to a VPN/proxy service and am able to do remote forwarding on certain ports (5 ports, not of my choosing). Is there anyway I can setup a firewall to block all connections that aren't going through the VPN and still do remote port forwarding?
[05:07] <greezmunkey> sha1sum: sound-reactive visualization? Please elaborate...
[05:07] <Dfcnvt1> pas
[05:07] <Shadow> ...
[05:07] <jef91> tucemiux "gpt disks do not support extended partitions"
[05:08] <Shadow> Oh, duh, I had to scroll down, no wonder it wasn't changing o.o"
[05:09] <Shadow> As well...I just installed ubuntu, from the live CD..."side by side" with windows...and when I select windows from the boot grub menu it displays a flashing _ and never does anything...
[05:09] <greezmunkey> opij: it sounds like what you have there is ment primarily for general use Internet traffic. Where does the vpn come in? Do you vpn to the proxy?
[05:10] <opij> greenjon: yes exactly
[05:10] <tucemiux> jef91, you have a gpt disk, looks like those disks allow you to have 128 primary partitions
[05:10] <opij> oops
[05:10] <opij> greezmunkey: yes exactly
[05:10] <jef91> tucemiux can 32bit Linux read a ntfs partition on gpt?
[05:11] <jef91> Becuase I know 32bit windows cannot...
[05:11] <TKO_Jay> greezmunkey: seems to be working on the local network! hooray.  now to test with the DHCP helper relay.  very useful article - thank you so much for your help
[05:11] <airtonix> jef91, what is gpt?
[05:11] <greezmunkey> TKO_Jay: right on :)
[05:11] <weenog> any Dwarf Fortress players here? I'd like to try it but I'm unable to get it working
[05:11] <tucemiux> jef91, the problem is with the gpt disk and ubuntu, never worked with gpt disks, it's time forum time!
[05:11] <kickingintender> is gfw available in ubuntu software update
[05:12] <opij> kickingintender: hi
[05:12] <airtonix> kickingintender, what is gfw ?
[05:12] <TKO_Jay> whats the linux command for a scrolling log file again ?
[05:12] <kickingintender> gui firewall
[05:12] <airtonix> TKO_Jay, depends...
[05:12] <TKO_Jay> if I want to see updates to the file as they happen in a CLI box ?
[05:12] <cfedde> tail -f?
[05:12] <airtonix> kickingintender, is gufw... proly why you can;t find it.
[05:12] <TKO_Jay> thats the one!! thanks
[05:12] <opij> kickingintender: could you help me with a gufw question
[05:12] <TKO_Jay> man.  this channel is awesome
[05:12] <un214> has anybody tried a configuration like this one:
[05:12] <jef91> haha yep been on google XD
[05:12] <airtonix> TKO_Jay, watch -n1 -d " tail | <filename here>"
[05:13] <jef91> airtonix a partition layout type
[05:13] <TKO_Jay> no-ones even called me an idiot yet :P
[05:13] <un214> install debian core and X server, run ubuntu inside chroot jail?
[05:13] <tucemiux> jef91, can you format sda4 using gparted?  can you format it to ext3 or ext4?
[05:13] <hanlin> is it possible to use wildtype matching in defaults.list? for example I want to associate all text/* with gvim.desktop
[05:14] <jef91> I was able to format it to ext4 tucemiux
[05:15] <IdleOne> TKO_Jay: we don't tolerate people abusing others, name calling. We are all here to learn from each other :)
[05:15] <jef91> What is odd is that if I format the drive to 3 partitions on then Windows 7 refuses to install >.<
[05:15] <Shadow> Ok, my connection is screwed up ish so IDK how long I will be connected
[05:15] <greezmunkey> opij: I seriously doubt that you can run anything over the vpn that you don't first ask for, as in requesting a web page, ect. I would think that the admins of the proxy would purposefully deny any unsolicited traffic towards you.
[05:15] <Shadow> Anyway, I just installed ubuntu a couple hours ago from a live CD, and I selected "Side by side" with windows...
[05:15] <tucemiux> jef91, excellent, so now boot up into ubuntu lucid and tell it to use the partition you just created
[05:15] <kickingintender> (M)
[05:16] <Shadow> And I can't boot windows when I try from that list. I just get a black screen and a flashing _
[05:16] <jef91> but then I don't have 7 tucemiux >.<
[05:16] <opij> greezmunkey: excuse me but you've got it all wrong.
[05:16] <jnewbuntu> Shadow: it appears like you overwrote the PBR of windows (windows boot record)
[05:16] <greezmunkey> opij: educate me on your setup.
[05:16] <Shadow> jnewbuntu: How do I RE write it then? >>
[05:16] <tucemiux> jef91, what do you mean you dont have 7?? it erased the first partition?
[05:16] <opij> greezmunkey: can you help me setting up the firewall?
[05:17] <medium> lol
[05:17] <jef91> apparently 7 installed to the second of the two ntfs partitions?
[05:17] <greezmunkey> opij: depends on your setup :)
[05:17] <jef91> Reinstalling 7 now - this time only going to give it a small bit of space leaving the rest un-alocated hopefully that works
[05:17] <tucemiux> jef91, windows 7 takes up 2 partitions, you have to be careful, you can also undelete the partition
[05:18] <medium> 7 runs faster in vbox ose anyway jef
[05:18] <jef91> medium not for gaming...
[05:18] <medium> lol true =)
[05:18]  * jef91 wants to put his 260m gtx to use!
[05:18] <kickingintender> well i found win7 pretty ugly handling old software and games
[05:19] <kickingintender> also xp is good enough
[05:19] <IdleOne> !windows
[05:20] <TKO_Jay> greezmunkey: half success - it forwarded the DHCP packet, but it gave the wrong network address
[05:20] <TKO_Jay> hmm
[05:20] <weenog> do things packed into .tar.bz2 archives always want make and make install after extraction, or is that just the usual?
[05:20] <opij> greezmunkey: I connect to a server via openvpn that also proxies my connection. so I have an encrypted, anonymous internet connection. The have 5 ports that are random and change every time i reconnect. They call the process of forwarding the ports "Remote Port Forwarding". I would like to block all traffic, incoming or outgoing, that doesnt go through the tunnel. For example, incase i lose my connection to the tunnel.

[05:25] <robertzaccour> nhandler, ok thanks
[05:26] <robertzaccour> using Xubuntu, not default
[05:26] <IdleOne> robertzaccour: you can install pitivi on xubuntu
[05:26] <greezmunkey> opij: then the firewall on your end would just be set to deny all from the internet to you, unless _you_ establish a connection.
[05:26] <robertzaccour> with pitivi can i convert ovg to other formats youtube will display?
[05:26] <tucemiux> you need to unzip it first
[05:26] <abhi_nav> hi!!!
[05:26] <robertzaccour> whats a good format for youtube?

[05:27] <tucemiux> nimbiotics, unzip it first
[05:27] <abhi_nav> kickingintender, hi.
[05:27] <kickingintender> hi
[05:27] <greezmunkey> TKO_Jay: what does that mean? You figured it out?
[05:27] <opij> greezmunkey: yes and then deny all traffic again if the connection is broken
[05:27] <greezmunkey> opij: that would happen by default! :)
[05:27] <TKO_Jay> nope - it's offering an address of <IP_ADDRESS> to a machine on the <IP_ADDRESS> network - trying to figure it out now
[05:28] <jef91> Urg so it appears to be a Windows issue with GPT wonderous.
[05:28] <nimbiotics> tucemiux, can u plz explain me how to do it, im a noob!
[05:28] <opij> greezmunkey: it doesnt happen by default. if i'm connected to the vpn and downloading something and the vpn disconnects, it will continue downloading using a direct connection
[05:29] <abhi_nav> kickingintender, you send me something? what is it? i shows some windows
[05:29] <TKO_Jay> oh, boom - I think it's working ! DHCPOFFER on <IP_ADDRESS> to 00:04:f2:13:3e:e7 via <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:29] <greezmunkey> opij: that should not be happening at all, It tells me that there is more to the network setup than either of us knows at this point.
[05:29] <kickingintender> nothing really
[05:29] <kickingintender> i want 2 know where ur from
[05:29] <abhi_nav> kickingintender, there two buttons abort adn accept. what do i do what is it?

[05:30] <abhi_nav> IdleOne, what is DCC?
[05:30] <IdleOne> abhi_nav: it is a file transfer protrocol
[05:30] <IdleOne> protocol*
[05:30] <nimbiotics> tucemiux, thanks :)
[05:30] <abhi_nav> IdleOne, ok
[05:30] <kickingintender> i thought it was chat window!lol
[05:30] <IdleOne> abhi_nav: don't accept files from people you don't know and haven't requested
[05:30] <TKO_Jay> greezmunkey: the order of the DHCP config
[05:31] <tucemiux> nimbiotics, if it doesnt work come back
[05:31] <IdleOne> kickingintender: it can also be used for chat. Just like with pm please ask first.
[05:31] <greezmunkey> TKO_Jay: did you have to list the remote connections first?
[05:31] <TKO_Jay> you need to start with the subnet that the DHCP server is on, and then configure the additional ones.  I was using a "shared-network name {" command that didn't work
[05:31] <kickingintender> ok,idler
[05:31] <abhi_nav> kickingintender, yesterday i checked in my vista my webcam giving same blue screen problem. then i unijnstalled driver there and cant find new. so yersterday i again go to ubuntu adn same prob. but just nwo today i login ubuntu adn my webcam is working in cheese.

[05:44] <abhi_nav> Trader, wrong sequence. you first have to intsall xp and then ubuntu. now you have to restore grub
[05:44] <Trader> IdleOne: how?
[05:44] <IdleOne> follow that link
[05:44] <Trader> abhi_nav: I understood, but later
[05:44] <kickingintender> u should have installed xp first
[05:45] <chirpis> My mic does produce some sound in Skype, but it's not intelligible.
[05:45] <anathematic> I'm trying to fcsk something on ubuntu cd atm however it keeps saying device or resource is busy
[05:45] <abhi_nav> Trader, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[05:45] <anathematic> I'm pretty sure it's not mounted at all - any recommendations?
[05:45] <mneptok> anathematic: fsck? on a CD?
[05:45] <Trader> ubottu: thanks
[05:45] <opij> I subscribe to a VPN/proxy service and am able to do remote forwarding on certain ports (5 ports, not of my choosing). Is there anyway I can setup a firewall to block all connections that aren't going through the VPN and still do remote port forwarding?
[05:45] <mneptok> anathematic: what are you going to do if it finds filesystem errors?
[05:45] <anathematic> mneptok:  fsck the harddrive from ubuntu cd
[05:46] <mneptok> anathematic: have you turned off swap?
[05:46] <mneptok> anathematic: and what is the command you are using?
[05:46] <anathematic> mneptok:  I don't know, is there a way I can check? :-)
[05:46] <anathematic> mneptok:  sudo fsck /dev/sad
[05:46] <anathematic> *sda even~
[05:46] <wildbat> questions how to do tell the system to fsck the drives on next reboot ?
[05:46] <mneptok> anathematic: you cannot fsck devices. only partitions
[05:47] <anathematic> mneptok:  well that would explain a bit
[05:47] <mneptok> anathematic: sudo fsck.ext4 /dev/sda1 (or fsck.ext3 and /dev/sda2 or somesuch)
[05:47] <anathematic> mneptok:  how do I get a list of the partitions on the drive to access?
[05:47] <mneptok> anathematic: ls /dev/sd*
[05:47] <anathematic> ty
[05:48] <anathematic> mneptok:  this won't delete any data wil it? :-)
[05:48] <mneptok> anathematic: depends. if there are bad issues that need to be fixed, it may.
[05:48] <tibman> <---------------------- problems with ubuntu x64 or x86 install, dont want to give up but getting tired of failure. black screen of death fixed with a command but now locks up on step 3 of install. strangely enough same black screen of death with install on other versions of linux??
[05:48] <mneptok> wildbat: sudo touch /forcefsck
[05:49] <wildbat> mneptok, thanks

[05:53] <abhi_nav> Trader, ^^
[05:53] <opij> I subscribe to a VPN/proxy service and am able to do remote forwarding on certain ports (5 ports, not of my choosing). Is there anyway I can setup a firewall to block all connections that aren't going through the VPN and still do remote port forwarding?
[05:54] <SReject> tibman, what's ur problem
[05:54] <IdleOne> bawn: what version of ubuntu?
[05:54] <bawn> i can't supergrubdisk myself out of this one, cuz the new grub is too new for it

[05:55] <abhi_nav> Trader, yah
[05:55] <tibman> sreject, i keep getting a black screen of death on install, then with i915.modeset=0 xforcevesa, I am able to begin install but it locks up on step 3
[05:55] <greezmunkey> opij: good luck with that...
[05:55] <mneptok> tibman: did you md5sum the CD image? did you test the CD media for defects?
[05:55] <greezmunkey> laterzzzz
[05:56] <tibman> mneptok, the version I downloaded works on two of my other computers, 1 being 9 years old
[05:56] <mneptok> tibman: try nomodeset
[05:57] <jeffrey_> I have installed lubuntu and osmo does not open
[05:57] <tibman> so edit the install comand with nomodeset?
[05:57] <mneptok> tibman: the kernel boot parameters in GRUB
[05:58] <IdleOne> jeffrey_: #lubuntu
[05:58] <dpetrek> hihos
[05:58] <robertzaccour> is there a screencast recorder that automatically records in avi?
[05:58] <robertzaccour> i'm using gtk-recordmydesktop and it records in .ovg which takes time to convert afterwards
[05:58] <dpetrek> how could i easily graph cpu, memory, disk usage on ubuntu server? is there some kind of web interface available that would show me such graphs?
[05:59] <robertzaccour> dpetrek, whats hihos?
[05:59] <IdleOne> robertzaccour: isn't there the option to save as .avi?
[05:59] <dpetrek> its hi, with some hos :)
[06:00] <Jordan_U> bawn: There is Super GRUB2 Disk for GRUB2.
[06:00] <tibman> well thanks for more options to try, ill report my findings
[06:00] <robertzaccour> IdleOne, in gtk-recordmydesktop? i didn't see that option
[06:00] <robertzaccour> IdleOne, i'm pretty sure there isn't a way
[06:00] <mneptok> dpetrek: Landscape does that quite nicely. buy a support contract from Canonical. :)
[06:00] <tibman> im beginning to think it is some part of my hardware thats incompatible with linux
[06:02] <bawn> Jordan_U, i know, but it does not fix the mbr, it only boots grub
[06:02] <robertzaccour> brb
[06:02] <Jordan_U> bawn: Once you're booted it's a simple "sudo grub-install /dev/sda"
[06:05] <bawn> /usr/sbin/grub-setup: warn: Attempting to install GRUB to a partition instead of the MBR.  This is a BAD idea..
[06:05] <bawn> /usr/sbin/grub-setup: warn: Embedding is not possible.  GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists.  However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and its use is discouraged..
[06:05] <bawn> /usr/sbin/grub-setup: error: if you really want blocklists, use --force.

[06:05] <brand0n> how do you run audaicous (Gtkui) as opposed to normal audacious
[06:05] <brand0n> via terminal
[06:05] <opij> I subscribe to a VPN/proxy service and am able to do remote forwarding on certain ports (5 ports, not of my choosing). Is there anyway I can setup a firewall to block all connections that aren't going through the VPN and still do remote port forwarding?
[06:05] <Jordan_U> bawn: Why are you installing to a partition rather than the mbr?
[06:06] <bawn> i am not, it wants me to, i can't control it, thats why im here
[06:06] <Jordan_U> bawn: What command did you run?
[06:06] <bawn> i need it in the damn mbr
[06:06] <bawn> urs
[06:07] <bawn> but i had the partition as sda3
[06:07] <pondera> Anyone know whats the best *ubunt to a Macbook 3.1 ?
[06:07] <Jordan_U> bawn: To install to the mbr you use just "sda" as the install device, so run exactly "sudo grub-install /dev/sda"
[06:08] <Cmdrbubbles> can anyone help me with some problems im having with wine?
[06:08] <bawn> hmmm looks like it worked, i will reboot
[06:10] <abhi_nav> Cmdrbubbles, #winehq
[06:10] <pondera_> Anyone know whats the best *ubuntu to install on a macbook 3.1
[06:10] <Cmdrbubbles> tyvm
[06:11] <mneptok> !best
[06:11] <dpetrek> mneptok: any free options?
[06:12] <mneptok> dpetrek: none i am aware of. but that does not mean they do not exist.
[06:12] <steve__> hello i am bawn
[06:12] <dpetrek> mneptok: for example some firewall distros have that funciontality included
[06:12] <dpetrek> pfsense, ipcop...
[06:12] <sianhulo> necesito ayuda,i need help
[06:12] <mneptok> abhi_nav: not all WINE issues immediately belong in #winehq. allow people to ask. and at least give them more information than a channel name.
[06:12] <steve__> grub worked good for linux, but windows wouldn't boot
[06:13] <dpetrek> so i think there should be something available
[06:13] <dpetrek> but quick search revealed nothing
[06:13] <abhi_nav> mneptok, ok
[06:13] <sianhulo> i just install again ubuntu and i cant acces to my archives and programs
[06:13] <mneptok> sianhulo: Ingles solamente, pf.
[06:13] <steve__> just a little black screen with a line at the top left
[06:13] <sianhulo> and it say that i dont have space in the disk
[06:13] <steve__> grub worked good for linux, but windows wouldn't boot just a little black screen with a line at the top left
[06:14] <sianhulo> what i can do?
[06:14] <steve__> sianhulo, i have had this happen before
[06:14] <vita> !dualboot
[06:14] <robertzaccour> how do i record my desktop in avi format?
[06:14] <k1> sudo apt-get install beep && beep -l 100000
[06:14] <k1> try that
[06:15] <sianhulo> it didnt happen to me
[06:15] <sianhulo> before
[06:15] <robertzaccour> its not in the gtk-recordmydesktop settings and i have to change the format which takes time
[06:15] <panzer> I have deleted a file but it is still in use by a processor thread.  I am trying to get the file back.
[06:15] <sianhulo> i must be superuser to open programs,because it say that i dont have space
[06:15] <panzer> how would I do that?
[06:15] <steve__> sianhulo, you need to completely back up all of your stuff and do a fresh install, your computer somehow, when installing ran out of it's space or something
[06:16] <sianhulo> i dont have space to make a backup
[06:16] <Jordan_U> panzer: http://www.linux.com/archive/feed/58142
[06:16] <sianhulo> i would need 90 gb
[06:16] <mneptok> k1: stop that
[06:17] <mneptok> k1: it's unfunny.
[06:17] <panzer> Jordan_U: thanks
[06:17] <k1> mnemon, I disagree but i respect your opinion.
[06:17] <moody> i need some help... i've had no problem with gimp since installing, and now all the sudden it crashes as soon as i select certain tools, such as rectangle select, circle select, and text (just to name a few).  i get this in console output: gimp: fatal error: Failed to register GObject with DBusConnection
[06:17] <moody> (script-fu:1606): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: script-fu: gimp_wire_read(): error
[06:17] <Jordan_U> panzer: You're welcome.
[06:17] <steve__> sianhulo, did you ever get a message at boot about you not having permission to some sort of file at startup
[06:17] <Trader> $ sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[06:17] <Trader> I enter this command but nothing happend... is it normal? I want to recover Grub2
[06:18] <mneptok> k1: respect my opinion or not, it will stop. either you will do it voluntarily, or you will be banned.
[06:18] <steve__> does firefox say that you need ssl or something
[06:18] <Jordan_U> Trader: Generally when a command executes without any output at all it means that it succeeded.
[06:18] <Cmdrbubbles> so noone is in #winehq
[06:18] <sianhulo> nautilus say that it dont have acces to create some folders
[06:19] <mneptok> Cmdrbubbles: what is the nature of the problem with WINE?
[06:19] <sianhulo> but anything else
[06:19] <k1> mnemon, As far as u an concerned it has already stoped. If not, try pressing ctrl+c. that closes stuff.
[06:19] <steve__> do you have any of the other symptoms i described?
[06:19] <IdleOne> !guidelines | k1
[06:19] <anathematic> fsck.ext3: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while trying to open /dev/sda1 <- anyone? :-D
[06:20] <mneptok> anathematic: is sda1 indeed ext3?
[06:20] <Trader> Jordan_U: ubuntu&ubuntu$- command, then enter and ubuntu&ubuntu$ again, i command finished?
[06:20] <anathematic> mneptok:  I assume so - I didn't set it up but it woudln't be anything other than default
[06:20] <sianhulo> firefox dont start as normal user,but yes if i open it as superuser
[06:20] <sianhulo> (sudo)
[06:20] <Jordan_U> steve__: Can you run this script: http://sourceforge.net/projects/bootinfoscript/  and pastebin the RESULTS.txt file that it produces?
[06:20] <mneptok> Cmdrbubbles: please ask before PMing people.
[06:21] <mneptok> Cmdrbubbles: please ask questions in the channel. i'll be going AFK in a bit.
[06:21] <steve__> sianhulo, does it have a warning message before the main window comes up?
[06:21] <steve__> Jordan_U, sure
[06:21] <itai_michaelson> hi, whats the command for changing a file's ownership to root, but allowing anyone to read.write?
[06:21] <abhi_nav> Cmdrbubbles, as you question here
[06:21] <abhi_nav> itai_michaelson, chmod?
[06:22] <mneptok> itai_michaelson: chown
[06:22] <sianhulo> a warning message only appair if i acces to firefox with the console(consola)
[06:22] <itai_michaelson> mnemon, whats the syntax sudo chwon filename root?
[06:22] <Cmdrbubbles> got wine installed then cant run program still cause its not marked excutable
[06:22] <sianhulo> if i start firefox with a click, it only dont start
[06:22] <itai_michaelson> abhi_nav, whats the syntax for read/write for everyone?
[06:23] <panzer> Jordan_U: big thanks again.
[06:23] <mneptok> itai_michaelson: sudo chown root:root /path/to/file
[06:23] <Zelozelos> Cmdrbubbles, an easy way to run a program with wine is to right click the file, run with wine ;)
[06:23] <Jordan_U> panzer: You're welcome, did you get the file recovered?
[06:23] <itai_michaelson> mneptok, thanks
[06:23] <panzer> Jordan_U: yes.
[06:23] <abhi_nav> itai_michaelson, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chmod and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system_permissions#Octal_notation
[06:23] <mneptok> abhi_nav: chmod does not change ownership
[06:24] <abhi_nav> mnemon, it chane permission
[06:24] <Cmdrbubbles> error msg: the file is not marked as executable. if d/l from untrusted source may be dangerous
[06:24] <mneptok> abhi_nav: yes it does. but it does not change ownership.
[06:24] <Vin73> hi, I need some help with a string of I/O error messages upon reboot after installation of Ubuntu
[06:24] <ActionParsnip> Yo yo yo
[06:24] <Cmdrbubbles> after trying to run with wine
[06:24] <abhi_nav> mnemon, hmm
[06:24] <Vin73> the install succeeds but reboot hangs....
[06:25] <Zelozelos> Cmdrbubbles, what is the program you are trying to run?
[06:25] <mneptok> abhi_nav: and you need to work on your tab-complete ;)
[06:25] <abhi_nav> mneptok, :D
[06:25] <Cmdrbubbles> trying to install games from disc
[06:25] <sianhulo> what is wrong with ubuntu =(?
[06:25] <mneptok> Cmdrbubbles: before trying to install them, you might want to esnure they wil actually work by consulting the WINE AppDB
[06:25] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: imho, too many apps installed by default
[06:25] <wildbat> ubuntu don't give the option to suspend/sleep(it got hibernates thou) in the shutdown menu~ what should i do to enable it? 10.04, E6600, ASUS P5B
[06:26] <ActionParsnip> wildbat: still going huh :(
[06:26] <Cmdrbubbles> not in the top 30
[06:26] <Vin73> hello...
[06:26] <sianhulo> the problem is about all the instalation
[06:26] <Cmdrbubbles> already looked but i didnt think that it only HAD 30
[06:26] <Zelozelos> Cmdrbubbles, what game?0 u can run stuff that isnt on the wine lists of running apps, but they prob wont work very well btw
[06:26] <wildbat> ActionParsnip, :< seems no one have a clue >.<
[06:26] <steve__> Jordan_U, i can't find the result file
[06:26] <ActionParsnip> wildbat: did you log a bug
[06:26] <Cmdrbubbles> sim city box, Myst trilogy, fate
[06:26] <Jordan_U>  steve__ It should be in your home directory.
[06:27] <wildbat> ActionParsnip, how?
[06:27] <ActionParsnip> Vin73: does the reboot happen ok when you use the installed system
[06:27] <Cmdrbubbles> cant run them on win 7 and my other compute is a $1800 paperweight
[06:27] <ActionParsnip> !bug > wildbat
[06:27] <sianhulo> i cant acces to my apps,archives or configurations
[06:27] <steve__> Jordan_U, not there, what am i doing wrong, do i use sudo on it?
[06:27] <abhi_nav> mneptok, what is maria project?
[06:28] <mneptok> abhi_nav: http://mariadb.org
[06:28] <ActionParsnip> Cmdrbubbles: wine is a best effort so not all apps will run. You could try the wine repo to get a later build or try win1.2
[06:28] <Zelozelos> Cmdrbubbles, yah, those prob wont run even if u do get them 2 install, but check the wine site to see 1st, if so installation instructions may be there as well
[06:28] <wildbat> ActionParsnip, but i ain't sure if a bug ~ should i log it anyway?
[06:28] <Jordan_U> steve__: Yes, run "sudo bash ~/Downloads/boot_info_script055.sh"
[06:28] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: is all that in the livecd?
[06:28] <ActionParsnip> wildbat: sure. I would
[06:29] <steve__> Jordan_U, i justdid it
[06:29] <sianhulo> no, i cant acces to they in ubuntu.and i cant acces to they live cd too
[06:29] <Cmdrbubbles> but my problem still exists of getting the file executable
[06:29] <mneptok> Cmdrbubbles: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=142
[06:29] <wildbat> ActionParsnip, and there is no PID to pick ~ hmmm ~
[06:29] <Cmdrbubbles> so i can find out
[06:29] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: do you have web access?
[06:29] <Zelozelos> Cmdrbubbles, i did manage to get some stuff 2 run by copying the installation to my hd 1st, idt u can change the file's mod w/o doin that anyhow
[06:30] <Vin73> ActionParsnip: No, I am not able to boot into the installed system at all....I am not sure...nothing went wrong during installation...once I do a hard reboot after removing media, I get an empty screen
[06:30] <ActionParsnip> wildbat: it won't be against a pid, it'll be against the package (i'd log it against the kernel)
[06:30] <wildbat> ActionParsnip, ok
[06:30] <Cmdrbubbles> ive tried loading from vista HD and install disc....get the same error either way
[06:30] <steve__> http://pastebin.com/QZZmpWDf
[06:30] <ActionParsnip> Vin73: did you md5 test the iso you downloaded? Did you check the cd for defects?
[06:30] <sianhulo> web acces?do you refer to firefox or internet?
[06:31] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: anything outside your lan. Can you access it?
[06:31] <Vin73> ActionParsnip: I did the md5 test successfully...but did not check the CD for defects before installation...
[06:31] <steve__> Jordan_U, sda2 is the one i want to boot
[06:31] <ActionParsnip> Vin73: boot the cd. When you see the stickman press space. Its there
[06:31] <sianhulo> i can acces to firefox en ubuntu,but if i acces to it as superuser
[06:31] <sianhulo> in the live cd i can acces normaly
[06:31] <ActionParsnip> Vin73: i'd also test the ram just to cover all bases
[06:32] <Vin73> ActionParsnip: OK...how to test the RAM?
[06:32] <ActionParsnip> Vin73: same screen
[06:32] <steve__> sda4 is a hodgepodge of fail, so don't even talk about that, i am just too lazy to format
[06:32] <Vin73> ActionParsnip: OK..I will do this and get back...thanks
[06:32] <Trader> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 I try to do via this manual.

[06:33] <Trader> •Now you need to edit the /etc/default/grub file to fit your system
[06:33] <Trader> $ nano /etc/default/grub
[06:33] <Trader> •When that is done you need to run update-grub to create the configuration file. If you have a separate /boot partition you need to mount it first!
[06:33] <Trader> $ update-grub
[06:33] <Trader> •To install GRUB 2 to the MBR, next you need to run grub-install /dev/sda

[06:33] <CountDown> I was futzing around with my sound options today, getting w32codecs installed and now sound will only play out of my laptop speakers -- it won't play out of the headphone jack any more!  How do I get sound to play out of the headphone jack again?
[06:33] <Trader> Where should I input update grub?
[06:33] <steve__> sianhulo,  i cant help you much more
[06:34] <ActionParsnip> Does anyone not find it ironic how the bot creates 4 lines of output to react to a flood by a user?
[06:34] <bobthemilkman> I've got some programs compiled with gcc4.4 that need to use /lib/libgcc_s.so, and others compiled with gcc3.4 that need to use $HOME/usr/local/lib/libgcc_s.so, is there easy way to get my programs to automagically select the correct one?
[06:34] <DarkSector> ActionParsnip: lul yeah :D
[06:34] <DarkSector> never noticed
[06:34] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: how is it the /home partition affecting web access?
[06:34] <bobthemilkman> Or am I doomed to always write a startup script for every program that needs to use the $HOME one?

[06:35] <opij> I subscribe to a VPN/proxy service and am able to do remote forwarding on certain ports (5 ports, not of my choosing). Is there anyway I can setup a firewall to block all connections that aren't going through the VPN and still do remote port forwarding?
[06:35] <sianhulo> it problem appair after i install again ubuntu with my old /home
[06:35] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: does your network interface get an ip. If you run: ifconfig ,you will see all interfaces and their info. Does yours have an ip address?
[06:35] <opij> hi ActionParsnip
[06:35] <DarkSector> nfinch: what's the issue ? detail
[06:35] <Jordan_U> steve__: That's odd, everything looks just fine. Maybe fixboot from a windows install CD would help but it shouldn't be needed. When was the last time / configuration that that windows install cuccessfully booted?
[06:35] <Trader> but ant the end this line: update: command not found((
[06:36] <john> hey there
[06:36] <steve__> sianhulo, your uuid now is different from your old files
[06:36] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: ahh. Ok. So are these archives on the /home partition?
[06:36] <ActionParsnip> Hi opij
[06:36] <majuk> Hey guys. Shotdown, moved my comp and now my sound is kapoot. Seeing a new error in /var/log/messages and don't know what to make of it. Log messages - http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/A8ubVguY
[06:36] <opij> my question seems to be unsolvable
[06:36] <majuk> lol, shutdown, not shotdown
[06:36] <steve__> i don't have install cd, only an upgrade cd for 98 to xp which doesnt do anything good
[06:36] <sianhulo> ActionParsnip, yes
[06:37] <nfinch> DarkSector:I have no idea. The installation goes smoothly and doesn't throw up any errors, but when I try to visit localhost/phpmyadmin/ the browser finds nothing
[06:37] <sianhulo> steve__, how i can change uuid?
[06:37] <CountDown> How do I get sound to come out of the headphone jack?
[06:37] <steve__> you adapt it to yourself
[06:37] <DarkSector> nfinch: ok, so have you created the shortcut ?
[06:37] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: ok then you need to add the home partition in /etc/fstab and it will be mounted. You needed to add the partition to the setup when you reinstalled but marked it to NOT be formatted and it would be mounted for you appropriately
[06:37] <steve__> sianhulo, that is all i know tho
[06:38] <steve__> Jordan_U, i used xp about a week ago with the same grub, and it worked great, but i think freebsd booloader screwed it up somehow
[06:38] <steve__> or grub has the wrong command to open it
[06:38] <Jordan_U> steve__: Just as a test, what happens when you try the entry "Windows NT/2000/XP (on /dev/sda1)"?
[06:39] <ActionParsnip> Opij: you can use iptables to only accept incoming connections on the vpn device and drop all others. I'm not conversant with iptables but it can be done
[06:39] <steve__> it boots the hp recovery partition
[06:39] <sianhulo> ActionParsnip,  i only had formated "/" partition,but not /home partition
[06:39] <steve__> can't run commands thru it
[06:39] <Jordan_U> steve__: But that successfully boots currently?
[06:39] <steve__> yes and no
[06:40] <opij> ActionParsnip: do you have any tips for very easy guides on that subject?
[06:40] <sianhulo> the archives are there,but it's as if they were not
[06:40] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: yes that is what you needed to do but you also needed to change the home partition, mark it as the filesystem it previously used and mark it to be used as /home but not formatted
[06:40] <nfinch> DarkSector:I haven't no - it wasn't part of the guide. How do I do that?
[06:40] <ActionParsnip> !iptable | opij
[06:40] <DarkSector> nfinch: wait
[06:40] <ActionParsnip> !iptables | opij
[06:40] <ActionParsnip> opij: that's all I know with iptables
[06:40] <steve__> i took it's free space away for my linux partitions, and now it can't really install too good
[06:40] <sianhulo> actionpasnip i did that
[06:41] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: if you did it would be mounted now as it was before the reinstall
[06:41] <DarkSector> nfinch, ln -s /etc/phpmyadmin /var/www
[06:41] <Jordan_U> steve__: But if it boots at all you may be able to modify its boot.ini to boot your real XP install.
[06:41] <sianhulo> but that's not happened like
[06:41] <steve__> sianhulo, put in the first few letters of someone's name on here and press tab, it usually fills it in
[06:42] <steve__> Jordan_U, it is only a wizard
[06:42] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: you now need to manually edit /etc/fstab to add a line for /home. If someone has a seperate home partition the could give you the line. You will need to run: sudo blkid ,yours will be the only difference to that line
[06:42] <steve__> Jordan_U, a graphical one at that
[06:43] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: if I was home I could give you mine but I'm on my phone outta town so no can do
[06:43] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: I'm sure someone will give theirs if you ask ;)
[06:44] <sianhulo> sudo blkid said http://paste.ubuntu.com/457680/
[06:44] <nfinch> DarkSector:thanks for the help - I'm giving up for bed. I'm so exhausted that's probably a factor. Cheers
[06:45] <Trader> $ sudo umount /mnt
[06:45] <Trader> but terminal tell that it's busy. What should I unmount?
[06:45] <DarkSector> nfinch: o_0
[06:45] <steve__> sianhulo, i meant uid
[06:46] <steve__> sianhulo, it is usually something like 1001 or 1000
[06:46] <sianhulo> 1001 or 1000? binaries?
[06:46] <sianhulo> fstab and blkid agree(?)
[06:47] <steve__> sianhulo, no those are just the 2 most common uid numbers
[06:47] <sianhulo> fstab had uuid of blkid
[06:47] <sianhulo> the same
[06:47] <anathematic> any data recovery tools you guys recommend for ubuntu? =\
[06:47] <sianhulo> and i didnt change it
[06:47] <Trader> NICE!!! Ubuntu run successfully)))
[06:47] <steve__> uuid is way different than uid
[06:48] <sianhulo> then i am lost
[06:48] <sianhulo> X.X
[06:49] <itai_michaelson> can anyone help with SMB mounting problem? i cant get it to mount as read/write
[06:49] <abhi_nav> anathematic, http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk
[06:49] <codeabit> I have a file I'm unable to delete.  Typing "rm gdkconfig.h" results in "rm: cannot remove `gdkconfig.h': Input/output error".  The command "ls -l" results in "ls: cannot access gdkconfig.h: Input/output error. total 0 -????????? ? ? ? ?                ? gdkconfig.h
[06:49] <codeabit> "
[06:49] <steve__> sianhulo, me too, let's start over
[06:49] <anathematic> thanks abhi_nav I'll check it out no
[06:49] <anathematic> now even~
[06:49] <abhi_nav> hmm
[06:49] <codeabit> Tried "shutdown -rF now" to force disk check on startup but it didn't fix the problem
[06:50] <codeabit> Any ideas?
[06:50] <waseem> Hi
[06:50] <CountDown> codeabit: ps -efjH | grep <filename>
[06:51] <steve__> Jordan_U, any ideas?
[06:51] <sianhulo> i dont how fix this T.T
[06:51] <zhailiguo> ??
[06:51] <waseem> I m facing issues with wired connection on ubuntu 10.04
[06:51] <sianhulo> i dont konw
[06:51] <codeabit> bryan     2596  2338  2595  2338  0 22:51 pts/0    00:00:00       grep --color=auto gdkconfig.h
[06:51] <sianhulo> forget it
[06:51] <codeabit> file name in color red
[06:51] <waseem> it does not recognize my connection
[06:51] <CountDown> codeabit: Hm, that doesn't help.
[06:52] <codeabit> ooops, that was my command.. duh
[06:52] <waseem> is there anyone who can help plzzz!!!!!!!!!!!!
[06:52] <KB1JWQ> With?
[06:52] <CountDown> codeabit: What were you doing with the file before trying to delete it?
[06:52] <CountDown> codeabit: And where is the file located?
[06:52] <Jordan_U> steve__: Other than modifying the boot.ini from sda1 to boot windows from sda2, no.
[06:53] <waseem> Is there anyone who can help Please!!!
[06:53] <steve__> can't i modify from sda3?
[06:53] <scotty00> whats the problem waseem
[06:53] <rethus> i have installed nano, but i found no .nanorc in my ~/
[06:53] <codeabit> Well, actually, this is the result of a broken dependency in libgtk2.0-dev, when I went to check out the offending file, It's corrupt.
[06:53] <codeabit> Nothing strange happened really, standard updating of packages.
[06:53] <waseem> hi scotty, i got full ubuntu installation last night
[06:53] <rethus> can i simply touch .nanorc, or must this file have special parms inside?
[06:53] <stevecam> metacity appears to of frozen, is it possible to load it back up without restarting X
[06:54] <sianhulo> i cant acces to my archives on /home in ubuntu(just reinstalled)
[06:54] <waseem> but it is not recognizing my wired as well as wireless connection
[06:54] <Zelozelos> stevecam yup, alt+f2,   metacity --replace
[06:54] <scotty00> talk in pm waseem
[06:54] <waseem> ok
[06:54] <Geoffrey2> curious...the latest ubuntu version has been out since the end of April, and yet some of the Gnome files are still from the 2.29 developmental version rather than the 2.30 production version
[06:54] <stevecam> zelozelos that doesn't work either
[06:55] <wfruit> rm
[06:55] <sianhulo> i must be superuser to acces to some application because it say i dont have space in the disk(its false)
[06:55] <Jordan_U> steve__: Boot Ubuntu, mount /dev/sda1 and make a backup of its boot.ini, then mount /dev/sda2 and overwrite the boot.ini in sda1 with the boot.ini from sda2.
[06:55] <Zelozelos> stevecam, that ws my best guess
[06:55] <stevecam> thank you
[06:55] <codeabit> CountDown: Thanks for your help.  Any other ideas?
[06:55] <Jordan_U> steve__: Then try booting from sda1 in the grub menu.
[06:57] <steve__> Jordan_U, the problem is that one is win pro and one is win home
[06:57] <odb|fidel> ahoi
[06:58] <ferris_> hi guys
[06:58] <Jordan_U> steve__: Shouldn't matter. As far as I know there is no difference in ntldr between pro and home.
[06:59] <ferris_> just wondering if anyone could help me im a n00b and need to get usb-modeswitch apparently
[07:00] <sianhulo> anyone cant help me?
[07:01] <Cain> Hi, i just installed an ubuntu lucid minimal system, how to add gnome to it ? aptitude install gnome ? or aptitude install ubuntu-desktop ? or else ?
[07:01] <rethus> sianhulo: use su, to become root
[07:02] <steve__> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/MjHKsVr9
[07:02] <sianhulo> I think that this is not a good solution =(
[07:03] <steve__> Jordan_U, see the differences between the partition numbers?
[07:03] <herman> is there an easy way to duplicate a file for backing up
[07:03] <herman> i.e. cp /foo/bar /foo/bar~
[07:03] <prince__> e
[07:03] <Jordan_U> steve__: Yes.
[07:04] <steve__> Jordan_U, i am starting to think that grub is executing it wrong
[07:04] <waseem_> I am not able to find solution to my wireless problem, I wanted to know, from where can I get Windows wireless driver. I want to download it using Win XP....Please help!!
[07:04] <brand0n> waseem
[07:04] <Jordan_U> steve__: That's not likely.
[07:04] <brand0n> connect with a wire and do the hardware driver search
[07:04] <brand0n> it will find the driver for your wificard
[07:04] <waseem_> thats wot m trying to do brandon
[07:05] <brand0n> well i dont get what you mean by using xp to download the windows driver
[07:05] <waseem_> but its not recognizing my wired conn
[07:05] <brand0n> thats not gonna do you any good in ubuntu
[07:05] <herman> is there an existing utility that can do the same thing as "cp /foo/bar /foo/bar~"?
[07:05] <sweetpi> Cain: ubuntu-desktop should do it, you should check what it depends on though. it might pull in more than you want
[07:05] <brand0n> the problem might be with your router then waseem_
[07:05] <brand0n> make sure your connection and your router are both set to DHCP mode
[07:05] <steve__> it worked great until freebsd loader, which gave same result, which looks like it didnt even use any commands
[07:05] <herman> cuz otherwise, I'll just write a simple bash script for that
[07:05] <Jordan_U> herman: What's wrong with using cp? What's your end goal?
[07:06] <herman> well
[07:06] <sianhulo> i will die @·@
[07:06] <herman> it's pretty annoying to type a long directory name twice
[07:06] <Cain> sweetpi : thx, i try to not install the recommended packages until i need them (aptitude -R)
[07:06] <herman> so I was thinking if there was an existing shortcut
[07:06] <steve__> herman, cut n paste dude
[07:06] <tuntu> use your mouse
[07:06] <Jordan_U> herman: cp /path/to/file{,-bak}
[07:07] <wfruit> \
[07:07] <grigor> Hello :)
[07:07] <herman> Jordan: sorry, can you explain to me how the {,-bak} part works?
[07:07] <ActionParsnip> Yo yo yo
[07:07] <herman> I assume the comma means to copy the contents of the previous arg?
[07:07] <steve__> yo dubble yo style
[07:07] <grigor> `xit
[07:07]  * sinistrad waves at ActionParsnip
[07:08]  * steve__ says yes
[07:08]  * ActionParsnip waves back =)
[07:08] <waseem_> see i hv been using Win7 , & all was working fine.I did a full installation on ubuntu 10.04 on a new dell, now m left with no option to connect to internet, bcoz ubuntu is not recognizing my wired as well as wireless. And my conn is set to Auto DHCP mode
[07:08] <brand0n> try restarting your router
[07:08] <brand0n> then restarting ubuntu
[07:09] <rethus> sianhulo:i don't understand your problem
[07:09] <ActionParsnip> waseem_: use: sudo lshw -C network ,websearch for the product lines for guides. What Win7 does or doesn't do is of no value to you
[07:09] <herman> msg Jordan_U what are expressions with curly braces '{' called?
[07:09] <sianhulo> i reinstalled ubuntu.but when i acces to my account it doesnt acces to my /home partition
[07:10] <waseem_> I did that also , it shows UNCLAIMED status
[07:10] <ActionParsnip> waseem_: if you get a broadcom 43xx then use this guide:
[07:10] <waseem_> what shud i do>
[07:10] <sianhulo> ande say that i dont have free space in disk
[07:10] <steve__> Jordan_U, now i understand your previous comments and i will try it out
[07:10] <ActionParsnip> waseem_: run the command I just gave you and search for the product line for guides
[07:11] <ActionParsnip> waseem_: is it a broadcom 43xx ?
[07:11] <waseem_> let me see
[07:11] <sianhulo> but i have, and i cant acces to my archives
[07:11] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: if you run: mount ,does it show the partition mounted to /home?
[07:12] <waseem_> yes its Broadcom
[07:12] <ActionParsnip> !broadcom | waseem_
[07:12] <waseem_> now what?
[07:12] <ActionParsnip> waseem_: don't confusse it with the wired which may be broadcom. The chip series is important
[07:12] <steve__> Jordan_U, i will now try it out
[07:12] <Jordan_U> herman: Brace expansion. Another illustrative example would be: echo {"Hello ","Goobye "}world.
[07:12] <sianhulo> /dev/sda6 on /home type ext4 (rw)
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> waseem_: use the link above to set it up. You will need the install cd
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> sianhulo: cool, that's a good sign :)
[07:13] <herman> Okay, thanks Jordan_U, I'll look them up, they seem useful.
[07:13] <waseem_> ok, let me see...
[07:13] <Jordan_U> herman: You're welcome.
[07:13] <sianhulo> ActionParsnip, uuid on fstab an blkid agree,and i didnt change it
[07:14] <waseem_> thanks for helping
[07:14] <noisecontrol> :) compiz
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> Jordan_U: so would this work: dpkg -l | grep {"flash","gnash","swf"}
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> waseem_: if the wifi chip is different then simply copy the line and sling it into a search engine to find guides
[07:15] <herman> Jordan_U: what command are you using to talk to me on IRC (your name is highlighted in some of you're messages)? Sorry, I'm new to using IRC
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> !who | herman
[07:15] <robertzaccour> whats a good media file converter?
[07:16] <robertzaccour> i need to convert ogv to avi or somethin
[07:16] <Jordan_U> ActionParsnip: Unfortunately, no. I think you'd need to use an ugly eval for something like that.
[07:16] <waseem_> ok
[07:16] <abhi_nav> i use mobile midea convertor
[07:16] <ActionParsnip> robertzaccour: mencoder, ffmpeg, winff, handbrake
[07:16] <herman> !ubottu Like this?
[07:16] <ActionParsnip> Jordan_U: oh well. Thanks :)
[07:16] <opij> ActionParsnip: I don't understand this. ufw is supported software
[07:16] <herman> !ActionParsnip Like this?
[07:16] <herman> !who |ActionParsnip Like this?
[07:17] <ActionParsnip> herman: just tab complete the name you are addressing and it highlights automagically
[07:17] <ActionParsnip> opij: understand what?
[07:17] <Jordan_U> herman: You have been doing it correctly, each time you've used my nick it's highlighted your message in my client.
[07:17] <opij> ActionParsnip: do you know what rule to set for remote port forwarding on ufw (which is supported software)
[07:18] <ActionParsnip> opij: just because its supported doesn't mean the current people in the channel have the answer
[07:18] <robertzaccour> thanks
[07:18] <herman> Jordan_U: So it's your nick plus a colon at the front that does the trick?
[07:18] <pondera> !dualboot
[07:19] <abhi_nav> herman, no only tab
[07:19] <Jordan_U> Just the nick is all that's needed, and it can be anywhere in the message (with most chat clients at least) herman.
[07:19] <ActionParsnip> herman: perfect :) you can use tab to complete nicks if you type a few of the characters too
[07:19] <Jordan_U> herman: Using the nick and then a colon is just a common convention.
[07:19] <ActionParsnip> opij: is there a #ufw channel?
[07:19] <robertzaccour> WinFF could not find codec parameters
[07:19] <opij> no
[07:19] <herman> Oh, okay, that's pretty cool. IRC's way smarter than I'd have imagined.
[07:20] <majuk> If anyone has a clue as to what these log entries mean and/or why my sound has stopped working since I started getting them? hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to polling mode: last cmd=0x006f000b | hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to single_cmd mode: last cmd=0x006f000b
[07:20] <majuk> Ugh, sentence structure fail. I promise I speak English fluently. :D
[07:21] <Blue1> majuk: well hda is the hard drive, and it sounds like it might be dying.
[07:21] <majuk> Blue1, No, hda_intel is the sound driver
[07:22] <majuk> Or module, rather
[07:22] <Blue1> majuk: okay I'd never seen one like that.
[07:22] <Takyoji> On a laptop I have a wireless card that appears as eth1. Wireless works fine, I just can't find the NetworkManager icon in the indicator icon tray to be able to select a network (therefore I either have to select a wireless network either with a third-party GUI or via command line). Suggestions?
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> majuk: are there any bugs with that text?
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> majuk: what sound card do you use?
[07:23] <majuk> ActionParsnip, Bugs? I put a | in the middle to separate the two lines, if that's what you mean
[07:23] <drew212> HDA stands for high definition audio controller
[07:23] <ActionParsnip> Takyoji: alt+f2, type: nm-applet ,press enter
[07:23] <gryllida> I need help of a user of open office 3.2 on ubuntu 10.04. please try to open a new document, then type something, select it, then put cursor to document end, then middle click. will it paste? if yes, then tell me what info to give about my setup to troubleshoot it, because it doesn't work for me
[07:23] <majuk> ActionParsnip, It's an onboard Intel HD card. Not 100% sure on the model precisely.
[07:23] <Blue1> Takyoji: did you try System/Preferences/Network Connections?
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> majuk: sudo lshw -C sound ,will tell you
[07:24] <gkffjcs> Hey all, I'm trying to configure ubuntu 10.04 with two ethernet cards both with static ip's on two different subnets.
[07:24] <Takyoji> I can add a network there yes, I just can't explicitly tell it to connect to a wireless network
[07:24] <gkffjcs> I can connect to one subnet, but not the other.
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> majuk: if its a laptop you may need some options in the sound config to tweak the sound a little
[07:24] <majuk> ActionParsnip, Negative, desktop, working perfectly up until today
[07:25] <majuk> product: MCP55 High Definition Audio
[07:25] <Guest94196> ls
[07:25] <ActionParsnip> gkffjcs: you may need to setup a static route too tell the routing to use the right interface for the subnet you cannot connect to
[07:25] <Takyoji> ActionParsnip: I executed nm-applet, and it is already running, but still doesn't appear in the indicator tray
[07:25] <Guest94196> whois
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> Takyoji: is it in the output of: ps -ef | grep nm-ap
[07:26] <majuk> The only thing that has changed between now and last it worked is the comp's physical location, nothing else.
[07:26] <Blue1> Takyoji: are you using the netbook remix by chance?
[07:26] <Takyoji> No, Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop Edition 32-bit
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> majuk: that's all I got. That's what i'd do
[07:26] <sweetpi> Takyoji: try restarting network-manager
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> Takyoji: ok run nm-applet in terminal. What is output?
[07:27] <Blue1> Takyoji: I had similiar problems with 10.04 and and now running 9.10 --
[07:27] <gryllida> ?
[07:27] <mneptok> Takyoji: try this. killall nm-applet && nm-applet --sm-disable
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> Majuk: is it a laptop?
[07:28] <abhi_nav> i use software kmobiletools. there i need to specifye where is my mobile. by dfault its /dev/mobile. so i need to know my mobile name in /dev. how to?
[07:28] <majuk> ActionParsnip, No, desktop, worked perfectly up until today. Only thing that has changed is the physical location of the machine since it last worked.
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> abhi_nav: sudo lshw | less ,may help
[07:28] <majuk> I'm starting to wonder if it isn't an unfortunate hardware issue. :\
[07:28] <Takyoji> mneptok: No difference. It was running with the --sm-disable parameter as well prior
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> majuk: no updates?
[07:28] <opij> I subscribe to a VPN/proxy service and am able to do remote forwarding on certain ports (5 ports, not of my choosing). Is there anyway I can setup a firewall to block all connections that aren't going through the VPN and still do remote port forwarding?
[07:28] <majuk> ActionParsnip, Not a one. :\
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> majuk: all I can recommend is reboot then run: dmesg | less ,see what's going on
[07:29] <Takyoji> ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/457700/
[07:29] <majuk> ActionParsnip, You're looking at the only change in my messages, that one I supplied you.
[07:29] <majuk> er, two
[07:30] <ActionParsnip> Takyoji: then its already running and needs killing before relaunching
[07:30] <majuk> hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to polling mode: last cmd=0x006f000b ||| hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to single_cmd mode: last cmd=0x006f000b
[07:30] <mneptok> Takyoji: did you by any chance remove the notification area from the panel?
[07:30] <Takyoji> Notification area is there.
[07:30] <Tamnakz> is there a good free software for unpacking .rar files?
[07:31] <mneptok> !info unrar
[07:31] <ActionParsnip> majuk: yes but you can also look at the rest and see if there are any problems or conflicts. It may just be loose due to the transit
[07:31] <majuk> ActionParsnip, It's onboard. No such thing as loose.
[07:31] <waseem_> @ActionParsnip: can i talk to u in pm?
[07:31] <Takyoji> Battery, sound, the NotifyOSD icon, etc
[07:31] <Tamnakz> mneptok: it says unfree version? not a $$?
[07:32] <Takyoji> Use 7zip
[07:32] <waseem_> can someone help me get the wireless working, in pm?
[07:32] <Takyoji> That has support for pretty much any archive format
[07:33] <mneptok> Tamnakz: while that app is free, it is not Free (note caps)
[07:33] <opij> I subscribe to a VPN/proxy service and am able to do remote forwarding on certain ports (5 ports, not of my choosing). Is there anyway I can setup a firewall to block all connections that aren't going through the VPN and still do remote port forwarding?
[07:33] <Tamnakz> mneptok: care to elaborate?
[07:34] <Zelozelos> mneptok, wahts the diff?
[07:34] <Takyoji> Tamnakz: I presume it's along the lines of not retaining the license.
[07:34] <majuk> opij, You can accomplish that with iptables. It is pretty unorthodox and you have to have pretty solid networking knowledge to make it work. Otherwise, no, there is no other way.
[07:34] <mneptok> free as in beer vs. free as in speech.
[07:34] <abhi_nav> there are four usb port shown by lshw. usb0,1,2 and 3. and i only connected my mobile to one of them. how to know which one is that?
[07:34] <Zelozelos> free beer???where???? :0
[07:34] <Takyoji> otherwise it is open source
[07:34] <opij> majuk: how about with ufw?
[07:34] <jnewbuntu> free like no money but non-free like no modifications permitted
[07:35] <Takyoji> In fact, it's under the GNU LGPL
[07:35] <waseem_> The output of  ~$ lspci -vvnn | grep 14e4 shows BCC Device [14e4: 4727]
[07:36] <majuk> opij, Couldn't tell you. If I had to guess, UFW is probably an iptables management system/scripts. So you're still dealing with the same tech.
[07:36] <waseem_> i dont think thats is in support?
[07:36] <waseem_> help please
[07:36] <opij> majuk: why is it complicated?
[07:36] <sianhulo> i have problems with nautilus
[07:36] <sianhulo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/457701/
[07:36] <anode> hey, this usb-creator.exe utility takes sooooo long to copy stuff then it hangs at 80%
[07:36] <anode> so I copied everything over manually
[07:36] <anode> doesnt boot <operating system not found> and such.. is there a reason it stalls at 80%?
[07:36] <majuk> opij, Because you have to set your desk/laptop up to do routing functions. It doesn't do those by default.
[07:36] <sianhulo> and my acount not acces to my configuration(y reinstalled ubuntu with the old /home)
[07:37] <waseem_> The output of  ~$ lspci -vvnn | grep 14e4 shows BCC Device [14e4: 4727]---- how to configure this device ???
[07:37] <opij> majuk: are you from india by any chance?
[07:37] <darlene> 3
[07:37] <majuk> opij, Yea, that's a good way to get help when you don't understand what's being said.
[07:37] <opij> 2
[07:38] <opij> majuk: lol I was asking that for another reason
[07:38] <sianhulo> any help with /home partition?
[07:38] <majuk> opij, Ah, well, no.
[07:39] <opij> majuk: can you help me write some rules for ufw or iptables?

[07:44] <Takyoji> sweetpi: I guess I don't have eth1 explicitly listed in /etc/network/interfaces
[07:45] <Takyoji> Blue1: GNOME
[07:45] <indus> sianhulo, reinstalled using manual partitioning ?
[07:45] <Blue1> Takyoji: there are some issues with the gnome-control-center
[07:45] <sianhulo> indus yes i did
[07:45] <sianhulo> i only formated / partition
[07:45] <indus> sianhulo, yes that s correct
[07:45] <indus> sianhulo, so what exactly is happening ?
[07:45] <sweetpi> Takyoji: so you did /etc/init.d/network-manager restart?
[07:46] <sianhulo> nautilus cant open
[07:46] <sianhulo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/457701/
[07:46] <Blue1> Takyoji: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/565757

[07:46] <achilles> hello guys, I have on lucid Ethernet controller: nVidia Corporation MCP73 Ethernet (rev a2), sometimes the interface stops responding till I shut it down and bring it up again, any clue ?
[07:47] <Takyoji> sweetpi: By the way, it's `sudo server network-manager restart` now. :P
[07:47] <Takyoji> sudo service*
[07:47] <larryAmen> Hi,guys.does anyone use e17?
[07:47] <Takyoji> `sudo service network-manager restart` is what I meant.
[07:47] <^DEMOSS^> hello, say me please , can i share ,for example, folder "user1" for user local network with IP <IP_ADDRESS>  \ folder 2 to <IP_ADDRESS> .... etc...
[07:47] <indus> sianhulo, maybe a permissions problem
[07:47] <Takyoji> But yes, I tried such to know avail.
[07:48] <sweetpi> Takyoji: the only thing i can think of is backing up your interfaces file and removing the definitions, then try restarting and see if it fixes anything
[07:48] <sianhulo> indus, but it have defaul conf too
[07:48] <Takyoji> The only interface listed is loopback
[07:48] <sianhulo> indus,  and i dont understand why
[07:48] <sweetpi> Takyoji: yes i know of service, but im an old grump :)

[07:56] <tripps> hi. I was playing around with the universal access options on the login screen of my lucid box. I unchecked everything before logging in, however now my login screen is permanently changed. How do I "reset" this?
[07:56] <indus> sianhulo, for example ls -l /home/user/.nautilus
[07:56] <waseem_> i installed ubuntu from the same CD
[07:56] <sianhulo> jnewbuntu,  no,no no XD.the user is "simon" but this carpeta dont have nothing
[07:57] <sianhulo> it said=total 0
[07:57] <^DEMOSS^> Blue1: how you can share folder for specific IP adress in network ( for example - access must have onli 1-2 IP - other IP will be dissconected )
[07:57] <indus> sianhulo, ah yes its same for me too total zero
[07:58] <Blue1> ^DEMOSS^: your almost describing an automount

[08:02] <indus> sianhulo, i mean all ls -al not just
[08:03] <dugger5688> packrat: Why not throw it on a VM and test it out!
[08:03] <indus> sianhulo, ah sorry
[08:03] <packrat> dugger5688, what?
[08:03] <sianhulo> what XD?
[08:03] <packrat> dugger5688, i want to install netbook remix on a computer that is not the one im irc-ing from
[08:04] <indus> sianhulo, ok looks fine
[08:04] <packrat> mostly because i totally fucked up the linpus linux install
[08:04] <sianhulo> i'll cry.I've been struggling all the day with ubuntu
[08:04] <sianhulo> XD
[08:05] <^DEMOSS^> Blue1: no
[08:05] <indus> sianhulo, try create a new user and try if nautilus works
[08:05] <indus> sianhulo, sudo useradd somename
[08:05] <indus> sianhulo, then login as him and try
[08:05] <indus> sianhulo, then we can troubleshoot
[08:06] <jaksin> I am having a good time with ubuntu..... I just partitioned my drive last week and installed it.
[08:06] <Dat001> wow
[08:06] <gtoy> yo
[08:07] <^DEMOSS^> ok - super example ( i need server on ubuntu OS.  server in local network in 53 computers. computers have ip's <IP_ADDRESS>-<IP_ADDRESS> \ computers have Windows XP OS. \ )
[08:07] <indus> sianhulo, tried deleting the hidden folder .nautilus ?
[08:08] <indus> sianhulo, also this http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8546582&postcount=20
[08:09] <^DEMOSS^> i want creat 53 folders for 53 computers in windows xp \ i want sharing this 53 folder for 53 user.  ETC .........
[08:09] <KB1JWQ> ^DEMOSS^: Welp, get to it then. :-)  You get to build user accounts and set permissions within samba.
[08:10] <^DEMOSS^> user 2 CAN NOT HAVE access to folder 1 - becase not have ip 0.1 ....
[08:10] <^DEMOSS^> how i can do this on my ubuntu ?
[08:10] <^paradox^> ikonia and xangua i did get galeon browser for temporary browser til i can get firefox fixed. ill come back tomorrow and try to get help fixing it
[08:11] <Appl6> When I install an update to Firefox and Firefox is still running, the package manager successfully installs the new version of Firefox.  At what point does the Firefox executable and its configuration files get replaced?  Wouldn't running an executable prevent it from being overwritten?  If not, surely Firefox has at least some of its configuration files opened while it's running.
[08:11] <^DEMOSS^> KB1JWQ: were i can read information about this ?
[08:12] <om26er> Appl6, there should be no problem
[08:12] <KB1JWQ> ^DEMOSS^: Then don't do it by IP. Do it via SAMBA user accounts.
[08:12] <KB1JWQ> #samba is a good start.
[08:12] <^DEMOSS^> i dont want, that users enter login and password
[08:12] <^DEMOSS^> i want do that witaout this
[08:13] <sweetpi> ^DEMOSS^: you might be able to do something like that with the %I variable substitution of samba. example path=/shares/folder_%I would be path=/shares/folder_<IP_ADDRESS> if the client had ip of .3
[08:14] <^DEMOSS^> KB1JWQ: can samba do what i want ( not whith accounts - i want  do it by ip )
[08:15] <^DEMOSS^> sweetpi: hmm , it's interesting
[08:15] <Viking667> I have a question.

[08:29] <raj> hello
[08:30] <Petter79> hi
[08:30] <plop> KruyKaze, check the section ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ###
[08:30] <plop> KruyKaze, default=0, is the first entry is this section, default=1 the second etc...
[08:30] <KruyKaze> ok thanks
[08:33] <Heh> hello, ubuntoids
[08:33] <A[D]minS> !native2ascii
[08:33] <paulhsu> hi A[D]minS, I google some solutions, maybe u can try this command 'file -i AjxKeys_el.properties.utf8' to detect the char encoding of the document
[08:33] <paulhsu> and try again
[08:34] <abhi_nav> hi abhinav_singh
[08:34] <paulhsu> use another options
[08:34] <Heh> please, go to this page - http://www.tekh.com.ua/ and look to the logo! they are crazy idiots!
[08:34] <Heh> plagiators.
[08:34] <aretrfre34> is there common device naming in linux?
[08:34] <A[D]minS> paulhsu: its UTF-8
[08:34] <A[D]minS> 10:34:21 hazem@egabi-its:~$ file AjxKeys_el.properties.utf8
[08:34] <A[D]minS> AjxKeys_el.properties.utf8: UTF-8 Unicode English tex
[08:35] <zamba> Alicia.Keys.utf8
[08:35] <paulhsu> A[D]minS: how about this 'iconv -f UTF-8 -t ASCII AjxKeys_el.properties.utf8 -o AjxKeys_el.properties.ascii'
[08:36] <A[D]minS> same error , it stop at the first greek line
[08:36] <packrat> so im trying to install netbook remix to an acer aspire via USB, and it seems to hang not long after i tell it to install
[08:36] <packrat> just blck screen
[08:36] <A[D]minS> which means it can't convert the greek language to ASCII
[08:38] <rapsli> i'm new to ubuntu. how do you'all handle updates?
[08:38] <Jordan_U> A[D]minS: Greek characters aren't included in the ASCII character set.
[08:38] <anjilslaire> packrat: try a different usb stick
[08:38] <packrat> D:
[08:38] <Slart> rapsli: there is an automatic updater
[08:38] <Jordan_U> rapsli: System > Administration > Update Manager.
[08:38] <paulhsu> A[D]minS: As I googled, it seems that the greek char doesn't contained in ASCII encoding
[08:38] <Slart> rapsli: it updates the operating system and all the applications you've installed
[08:38] <Jordan_U> A[D]minS: What is your goal?
[08:39] <Slart> rapsli: you can check it out by clicking on system, administration, update-manager
[08:39] <silverra1ndog> has anybody come across a problem with autofs where it mounts the nfs share but you can not access it or see it in mount, doing mount -t nfs server:/share /path/to/share, works ?
[08:39] <rapsli> I konw, but can I just install anything like "linux-headers-<IP_ADDRESS> ... seems kinda low level stuff... dont' want to crash my system
[08:39] <aretrfre34> as i imagine kernel creates those device files right, is there way to classify, ex.radio0 -- means radio device, bluetooth -- means ~, ram ok, what about kbd,snd,tty,vcs,whatchdog :D
[08:39] <sweetpi> packrat: what video chip does that have?
[08:39] <packrat> im not sure.
[08:39] <packrat> gz2 acer aspire one
[08:39] <aretrfre34> watchdog :D
[08:39] <Slart> rapsli: anything from the repos should be fairly safe to install
[08:40] <aretrfre34> where to read about linux devices?
[08:40] <paulhsu> Jordan_U: That's the root cause, thanks
[08:40] <rapsli> Slart: oky. I'll give it a try. is there some backup solution to create images?
[08:40] <packrat> im wondering if it might be related to the fact that im running on a x64 win7 install
[08:40] <packrat> the usb creator, that is
[08:40] <rapsli> Slart: so I could revert easily
[08:40] <Slart> rapsli: well.. not really, no.. you can make full backups but there's nothing like the system restore in windows
[08:41] <Slart> rapsli: but if you're curious about some package you can ask about it here.. or read about it in synaptics
[08:41] <Jordan_U> packrat: Did you download the 32 bit Ubuntu iso?
[08:41] <packrat> Jordan_U, yeah
[08:41] <Slart> rapsli: you really shouldn't have to worry about kernels and such unless you have a good reason to... let the system take care of that
[08:41] <packrat> the system it will be installed to is 3bit
[08:41] <packrat> 32bit
[08:41] <sweetpi> packrat: acer aspire one?
[08:42] <rapsli> Slart: well this header thing: it says in bracks (new installation) which kinda makes me each my head
[08:42] <packrat> yes
[08:42] <packrat> acer aspire one
[08:42] <FloodBot4> packrat: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:42] <rapsli> Slart: I'll give it a try and we'll see in a couple minutes ;)
[08:42] <sweetpi> packrat: try video=vesa i915.modeset=0
[08:42] <Slart> rapsli: you want to install your kernel headers?
[08:42] <packrat> also, the usb device does not seem to indicate any activity
[08:42] <Slart> rapsli: or it wants to update them?
[08:42] <sweetpi> packrat: ive been having the same issues with 9 series intel gpus
[08:43] <rapsli> Slart: Update I hope
[08:43] <packrat> it lights up when reading or writing, sweetpi, but not when im trying to install unr
[08:43] <Slart> rapsli: updates should be safe, let it do its thing
[08:43] <paulhsu> A[D]minS: got answered?
[08:43] <rapsli> Slart: but it says in brackets (new installation) so I guess it's going to freshly install the header?
[08:44] <rapsli> because I have <IP_ADDRESS> (I believe)
[08:44] <A[D]minS> Jordan_U my goal to convert UTF-8 to ASCII as per the manual which i'm using
[08:44] <Slart> rapsli: it's probably because some other package needs them
[08:44] <Slart> rapsli: just let it install them
[08:45] <A[D]minS> i'm deploying new language to zimbra , but the manual says must convert UTF-8 to ASCII
[08:45] <rapsli> .... *nervous* ...
[08:45] <Oprtz> hi guys, how to enter into safe mod of ubuntu, like in windows we press f8... thanks

[09:26] <delfick> does anyone know how to fix this ?
[09:26] <stix> Where are the "Restricted drivers" in KDE?
[09:26] <plop_ag> Pr0jectRec0n, "indicator applet"
[09:26] <monreal> are there any plans to port back the gtk3 stack to older ubuntu releases after maverick is released?
