[08:07] <dannyobrien> where should I point KERNELPATH? What packages do I need
[08:07] <drkn00ck3rz> Do we have any appearance manager, like the display manager in windows, for ubuntu ?
[08:07] <ikonia> dannyobrien: your using the jaunty repo s that is not supported
[08:08] <ardchoille> drkn00ck3rz: Syste, > Preferences > Appearance
[08:08] <ikonia> !jaunty > dannyobrien
[08:08] <Racoon1> Can anybody help me!
[08:09] <drkn00ck3rz> ardchoille: but here you cannot set the icon size, common to all. Can we ?
[08:09] <ikonia> rice_: if you ask a question
[08:09] <ikonia> oops
[08:09] <ikonia> Racoon1: if you ask a question
[08:09] <Zeroedout> liar, irc isn't for questions
[08:09] <Racoon1> I cant hear anything
[08:09] <Racoon1> Im using 64 bit
[08:09] <ardchoille> drkn00ck3rz: I've not seen a place to set icon size in Ubuntu
[08:09] <Racoon1> how can I fix it
[08:09] <natalisushka> ikonia, ardchoille before I go furthur, what is image ... -rt ?
[08:09] <ikonia> natalisushka: real time kernel
[08:09] <ikonia> natalisushka: you don't need/want it
[08:09] <Racoon1> How can I fix my sound
[08:10] <ikonia> natalisushka: use the generic kernel, again as I've said more than once
[08:10] <ikonia> Racoon1: is the volume turned up
[08:10] <natalisushka> ikonia, thanks :)
[08:10] <Racoon1> Yes
[08:10] <dannyobrien> ikonia: okay, i get that, but in the general case -- if something is looking in /lib/modules-*/build for source, where should I be pointing it?
[08:10] <drkn00ck3rz> ardchoille: Any recommended software's
[08:10] <Racoon1> I have a 64 bit USB Headset
[08:10] <Racoon1> 64 Bit processor*

[09:03] <Tm_M> how to determine what dpi some app uses? as there seems to be differences
[09:05] <generalsnus> We have a problem with our thin clients,  It seems like each user has 2 instances of the process "ps" running.. using 2% cpu each.. as you imagine..this is a problem when there is 30 users logged on.. cpu load is at 90-100%  what can i do?
[09:05] <terryx> shrini: what u use for mobile..?
[09:06] <mchelen1> generalsnus, how are clients connecting?
[09:06] <mchelen1> !nvidia | zhjawe
[09:07] <mchelen1> zhjawe, also recommend using envy-ng for that card, use the driver version it suggest
[09:07] <mchelen1> !envy-ng
[09:07] <mchelen1> !envy
[09:07] <zhjawe> Thank you for your help.

[09:09] <ddoom> how I do I setup a script to run on boot
[09:09] <mchelen1> zhjawe, it should be possible to increase the refresh rate even without nvidia drivers, but that should work ok too
[09:10] <mchelen1> generalsnus, is it all handled by ltsp? if so maybe ask in #ltsp

[09:31] <overrider> hi, id like that gnome-terminal --tab opens a new tab in my current terminal window that i have open. instead, it will open a new window with one tab. i also tried the various --tab-with-profile=Default and stuff, (my profile is just the default one) . How can i open a new tab in my terminal window from the commandline ? thanks
[09:31] <DaNk> how do i copy all files in a directory?

[09:35] <deepthink> Hello. I'm trying to get my backup system (bacula) to run unsion for each user to sync between computers. The problem is that unison has to be run with the permissions of each user. I have tried to create a small script called run_sync for one of my users. It is owned by the user and has the setuid bit set. The privileges don't seem to be changed. Isn't the setuid bit supposed to make the programs in the script believe that they ar
[09:35] <deepthink> e running as the scripts owner?
[09:35] <ardchoille> bebop_: yes
[09:35] <jim_p> \slash, you mean ALL the available packages?
[09:35] <\slash> yeah jim
[09:35] <ardchoille> \slash: you're better off using synaptic as that would be a huge list
[09:35] <\slash> ah
[09:35] <jim_p> \slash, or just the installed ones?
[09:35] <ne2k__> overrider: WOW! I never knew that gnome terminal had tabs!
[09:35] <ne2k__> that is cool
[09:35] <bebop_> Alright, i figured i would tell you since i kinda gave you greif about never getting a response. I think it was a memory allocation issue with the bios
[09:36] <\slash> jim letsay i want to search for an available package with * name
[09:36] <bebop_> i updated t the newest version and ran wall-e 720P flawlessly it seems
[09:36] <jim_p> ne2k__, prepare for a big surprise. nautilus in 8.10 has tabs too!
[09:36] <overrider> ne2k__, dude its soo important. open a new tab by clicking Ctrl+Shift+T
[09:36] <\slash> like just to check whats available with that name.
[09:36] <overrider> otherwise the windows get scattered all over your desktop soon
[09:36] <ardchoille> \slash: apt-cache search package_name_here
[09:36] <ne2k__> overrider: can you move between them with the keyboard
[09:37] <ardchoille> \slash: or to only search the package names: apt-cache search -n package_name
[09:37] <overrider> ne2k__, yesm Ctrl+Page Up or Down
[09:37] <ne2k__> overrider: ah, cool
[09:37] <ne2k__> that is TOO COOL
[09:37] <\slash> ah thanks ard
[09:37] <overrider> ne2k__, now if we can figure out how to make a new tab via just one keystroke, eg, aliasing t to Ctrl+Shift|Tab, then it will be even cooler
[09:38] <overrider> eg t=new tab, q=close current tab
[09:38] <ne2k__> overrider: that would be a little bit stupid, no?
[09:38] <overrider> ne2k__, no, why?
[09:38] <\slash> BitchX isnt available?
[09:38] <ne2k__> overrider: so that every time you press t, it opens a new tab?!
[09:38] <ardchoille> overrider: and if you happen to mistype a "t" while that app is focused?
[09:38] <\slash> only irssi ?
[09:39] <overrider> well it would be e+enter
[09:39] <overrider> and i don't mistype :-)
[09:39] <ardchoille> I find that quite hard to believe

[09:51] <BonezAU> Hi, I used sysv-rc-conf to disable some services yesterday and now my wireless will not work. NetworkManager says "Wireless is disabled". I have re-enabled all of the services that I can remember turning off but still can not get wireless to work. Any ideas? Thanks
[09:51] <ne2k__> ocs: I never knew that cups has a web interface. why would it?
[09:51] <ne2k__> ocs: but, I still maintain that your question was crap
[09:51] <click170> How is /etc/resolv.conf maintained?  I recently changed my local DNS server from .24 to .20, but my gateway machine still has .24 in it's resolv.conf on boot.  I've checked the dhcp configurations and /etc/network/interfaces file
[09:51] <ocs> ne2k__: ok, bye bye
[09:52] <VerumAddo> can someone tell me why im getting a 404 error when trying to apt-get flashplugin-nonfree
[09:52] <davmonster> click170: I want to know that too
[09:52] <ne2k__> VerumAddo: try apt-get update first. then try checking your repository address
[09:52] <xray7224> hey guys
[09:52] <ardchoille> VerumAddo: possible a problem with the archive server, nothing you can do about it
[09:53] <TiNRiB> are you using a DHCP client?
[09:53] <jburd> I'm trying to run multiple operating systems in VirtualBox on Intrepid.  However, networking doesn't work in the virtual machine.  The network adapter is configured to use NAT on the interface, so I should be able to access anything oustide of the VM, no?
[09:53] <click170> davmonster: I've asked in the Debian channel already, no response
[09:53] <TiNRiB> as opposed to static IP?
[09:53] <jim_p> VerumAddo, are you on 8.04? the package is broken. adobe moved the plugin to another location
[09:53] <click170> I am using DHCP on the external interface, which is to the ISP
[09:53] <davmonster> I'm using a DHCP client also
[09:53] <VerumAddo> jim_p im on 7.10
[09:53] <ne2k__> jburd: what is the status of the virtual interface on the virtual machine? does it claim to have an IP address?
[09:54] <jim_p> VerumAddo, anyway, the package is roughly the same. its flashplugin v9 that adobe moved to another location
[09:54] <TiNRiB> im no pro but doesnt having DHCP grab ip also grab DNS
[09:54] <VerumAddo> jim_p how do i get apt to look in that location ?
[09:54] <jim_p> VerumAddo, i am sure it affects all versions from 8.04 and down
[09:54] <jburd> ne2k__: <IP_ADDRESS> is the ip address the virtual interface has.
[09:54] <jim_p> VerumAddo, adobe also offers a .deb standalone package
[09:54] <ne2k__> TiNRiB: a decent DHCP client lets you override anything like that
[09:54] <ne2k__> jburd: and where did this come from?
[09:55] <jburd> /sbin/ifconfig
[09:55] <davmonster> I'm using dhcp3
[09:55] <VerumAddo> jim_p not sure how to use those...
[09:55] <jim_p> VerumAddo, and you can alwais install the plugin by hand. i have done so. opera is on flash 10 and ff is on flash 9 for me
[09:55] <deepthink> I have created a script containing only the command "env". It is owned by userA and has the setuid bit set. If executed by userB shouldn't the env reflect userA?
[09:55] <jburd> It's assigned via dhcp on an instance of centos 5.2 @ ne2k__
[09:55] <davmonster> I guess ubuntu 8.10 dhcp3 grabs dns by default
[09:55] <jim_p> VerumAddo, just download the .deb and double click it. instructions will come up
[09:55] <jburd> My local computers are on the <IP_ADDRESS>/24 network. @ ne2k__
[09:56] <TiNRiB> trying going static.. and seeing if it keeps the DNS entry
[09:56] <VerumAddo> jim_p okay will try it thanks
[09:57] <BonezAU> Hi, I used sysv-rc-conf to disable some services yesterday and now my wireless will not work. NetworkManager says "Wireless is disabled". I have re-enabled all of the services that I can remember turning off but still can not get wireless to work. Any ideas? Thanks
[09:57] <Juliada> Hello everyone! I accidentally uninstalled gnome network-manager, and Internet disappeared... I re-installed the system... Is there a way to keep DHCP internet connection without it?
[09:57] <jburd> BonezAU: Have you turned on the switch for your wireless card?
[09:57] <nunocruz> hEllo
[09:57] <davmonster> if you I've edited /etc/dhcp3/dhcp.conf and removed the 'netbios-name-servers' entry and the 'domain-nane-servers' entries
[09:57] <davmonster> hopefully that will fix
[09:58] <jburd> BonezAU: Also right click on the network manager icon in the notification area and check whether you have "Enable Wireless" checked.
[09:58] <BonezAU> jburd, it does not have a switch, its usb
[09:58] <nunocruz> davmonster in Portugal we use to say that isn it by default but on contrary certainly by Omission ..:0)
[09:58] <nunocruz> ;0)
[09:58] <Wartorn> s
[09:58] <BonezAU> jburd, it's greyed out since I disabled those services, just not sure which one I disabled that broke it
[09:58] <davmonster> nunocruz: :)
[09:59] <nunocruz> I am also using _Ubuntu 8.10 its extremly fast in a 2,5 ram memory laptop with slow integrated intel card
[09:59] <nunocruz> :9
[09:59] <nunocruz> )
[09:59] <jburd> BonezAU: You shouldn't disable services you don't know about :-)
[09:59] <BonezAU> jburd, i know that... there is only one way to learn though :)
[09:59] <TiNRiB> darn right!
[09:59] <jburd> And that is to RTM first!
[10:00] <TiNRiB> do that 2nd
[10:00] <ne2k__> TiNRiB: look at man 5 dhcp-options
[10:00] <TiNRiB> break it first
[10:00] <jburd> ne2k__: What do you think is the problem with the VM?
[10:00] <Juliada> davmonster: was the insfo about /etc/dhcp3/dhcp.conf for me? :)
[10:01] <nikin> hy
[10:01] <VerumAddo> jim_p it appears that adobe has stopped hosting flash 9 and is now solely hosting 10
[10:01] <ne2k__> jburd: and what is the vm's gateway? can you ping the gateway from the vm? (should presumably be the real vm)
[10:01] <VerumAddo> =(
[10:01] <davmonster> for anyone that was experiencing domain-name clobbering on /etc/resolv.conf
[10:01] <ne2k__> jburd: the real machine, I mean
[10:01] <BonezAU> sooo.... can anyone help?
[10:01] <jburd> ne2k__: A few kernel upgrades ago, networking was working without my doing anything on it.
[10:01] <jburd> ne2k__: Nope.  I'm unable to ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:01] <\slash> is it just me or does audacious only play local files? network files dont play?
[10:01] <davmonster> domain-name-servers
[10:01] <jburd> Let me check if I'm able to ping the VM's gateway.
[10:02] <ne2k__> jburd: errm, if it's gateway is <IP_ADDRESS> then something is really very very wrong. that's not on the same subnet
[10:02] <jim_p> VerumAddo, give me a sec to look it up in adobe. i still have 9.0..124 and 9.0...48 on my drive with installers
[10:02] <nunocruz> -if someone is trying a new pre installed vista laptop, also ubuntu to choose what to run , then ask me , because i got experiece on it .. .
[10:02] <rubystallion> When I updated to Intrepid, my keyboard layouts lost their dead keys. Now the accent keys behave as if they were totally unassigned (even if pushed twice or followed by vowel, nothing happens). What's wrong?
[10:02] <ne2k__> jburd: if I were you, I'd get everything working with fixed IP before embarking on DHCP with VMs
[10:02] <nunocruz> also then to how to resize the disks after installation
[10:03] <ne2k__> jburd: have you checked iptables? it might be that something has been added to the default ruleset that is blocking this
[10:03] <jburd> I'll check that too
[10:03] <davmonster> nunocruz: I can't get vista 64 dual-booting with ubuntu, do you have a recommended way?
[10:04] <nunocruz> yes
[10:04] <nikin> i am running an eeepc 900 with ubuntu, and i want to play some gmes in wine.. mainly GT3 and GTA VC .. i managed to install Vice City just fine. But the fps is to low. Wht i am thinking of is either set the detaillevel of the game somehow even lower than it ispossible in the GUI, or get some extra performnce out of the GMA950.
[10:05] <TiNRiB> nikin: dont bother.
[10:05] <dirty> does any know about kde
[10:05] <VerumAddo> jim_p nvm i found it on a 3rd party site
[10:05] <jim_p> VerumAddo, oh ok
[10:05] <davmonster> nunocruz: please elaborate
[10:05] <nikin> TiNRiB: why?
[10:05] <TiNRiB> i have tried to tweak wine for optimal performance for loads of games.
[10:06] <TiNRiB> the FPS just isn't up to scratch

[10:06] <BonezAU> Hi, I used sysv-rc-conf to disable some services yesterday and now my wireless will not work. NetworkManager says "Wireless is disabled". I have re-enabled all of the services that I can remember turning off but still can not get wireless to work. Any ideas? Thanks
[10:06] <TiNRiB> even by going to the latest releases of wine.

[10:06] <Getterac7> my keyboard layout is dvorak, but my login screen still types in qwerty... any suggestions?
[10:06] <nikin> TiNRiB: ok then no wine  tuning.. wht about tuning the game, or tuning the videocard driver?
[10:06] <Unknown0BC> How can I get my Ubuntu system to not ask for a password after it comes out of hibernate ?
[10:06] <sybux> Hi all
[10:07] <TiNRiB> not looked at that...
[10:07] <sybux> I'd like to know how to configure postfix with spamassasin so that all spam message are moved to the "Spam Folder"
[10:07] <TiNRiB> have you tried at all?
[10:07] <ne2k__> jburd: if they were both working before, and have now stopped, I would suggest it is either something with the virtualization software itself, of the host OS
[10:07] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: what is your wireless card ?
[10:07] <Getterac7> unknown0BC: it's because it locks the screen when it hibernates, i believe.
[10:07] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, rt73usb
[10:07] <C0nn0R_> bonezAU: Have you reinenabled the services you disabled ?
[10:07] <Getterac7> unknown0BC: i don't think there is a way to change that.
[10:07] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, not all of them, just anything to do with networking
[10:08] <VerumAddo> jim_p okay i ran the .deb file but i still get the Box saying i need the plugin
[10:08] <Adross> hello, i installed a fedora install in virtual box, and i'm trying to ssh into it from the host ubuntu install. the network type is nat, but the ssh just hangs. I know this may not be the right channel, but we all know that you guys are smarter than #fedora
[10:08] <VerumAddo> jim_p and i have restarted the browser
[10:08] <ne2k__> Unknown0BC: why would you want to do that?
[10:08] <GFree> Getterac7: ahh good ol' GNOME, hiding the options people actually want to see. :)
[10:08] <jim_p> VerumAddo, did the installation pop any errors?
[10:08] <fivetwentysix> I need help with this bug I have, NetworkManager Applet 0.7.0 is displaying my network devices twice... Although I'm not sure if it's a cause to my other problem (random wireless spiking in ping), I'd still like to solve it. I can screen shot it if you don't understand what I mean.
[10:08] <TiNRiB> nikin: i had a GTS8800 640MB playing COD4, halflife 2 under wine 1.0
[10:08] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, is there any way to reset all services back to default?
[10:08] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: Have you tried booting in recovery mode and see any errors there ?
[10:08] <davmonster> Adross: type ifconfig in the fedorall install at a console
[10:08] <nunocruz> Put it the instalation CD
[10:08] <TiNRiB> performance was pretty bad with fps around 20
[10:08] <VerumAddo> jim_p only that there was a newer version available via the software repositories
[10:09] <nikin> TiNRiB: i tryed to find some config file in the game.. no luck on that.. for the videocard i have no idea. the only thing that coes in mind i somehow disable features so that the game does not try touse them, like particles
[10:09] <nunocruz> And make a installation in _HArdDISK
[10:09] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, no, but that would probably not help me.
[10:09] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: Hmm.. you can try live cd to see if your wireless works then.
[10:09] <jim_p> VerumAddo, :|
[10:09] <davmonster> Adross: does it display an ip address?
[10:09] <nunocruz> yeS live cd
[10:09] <jim_p> VerumAddo, can you remove it? do you know how to?
[10:09] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, the PC dual boots WinXP and it works fine. It's something i've done to the ubuntu install
[10:09] <nunocruz> DAVMONSTER
[10:09] <Adross> davmonster: one moment
[10:09] <TiNRiB> nikin: turning all the effects down does improve it... but then the game looks shabby.
[10:09] <nunocruz> put live cd run on it
[10:09] <nikin> TiNRiB: i had GTA_VC run finron a Geforce8400M :D
[10:09] <nunocruz> instal on hard disk
[10:09] <VerumAddo> jim_p will apt-get remove still work since i installed it with a .deb file ?
[10:09] <TiNRiB> FPS?
[10:10] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: Tried "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[10:10] <davmonster> nunocruz: ah ok, thanks
[10:10] <nunocruz> chosse to mantains your other partition it will crete a new one ofr you
[10:10] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, how would that help is multiple "reboot" does not work
[10:10] <Getterac7> anyone know how to change the keyboard layout for the login screen?  i want it to be dvorak.
[10:10] <BonezAU> is = if
[10:10] <jim_p> VerumAddo, yes, but you need to know the name. BEFORE you remove it.... what do you see in about:plugins of ff?
[10:10] <Rugg>  .dpkg -purge xx.deb ??
[10:10] <nikin> TiNRiB: i dont care... :D i like the missions and the driving :D no need for bullet particles :D
[10:10] <Everett> Is there a howto for replacing PulseAudio with Alsa or OSS?
[10:10] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: Have you looked at your ifconfig ?
[10:11] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, it shows lo and eth0, no wirelss
[10:11] <Everett> Basically just getting rid of PulseAudio is what we're shooting for here.
[10:11] <TiNRiB> haha yeh sure.. first person shooters.. I meant frames per sec.
[10:11] <C0nn0R_> Its on the motherboard and not through usb right ?
[10:11] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, it's USB
[10:11] <VerumAddo> jim_p i dont see an about plugins option... i see an option for add-ons
[10:11] <C0nn0R_> So it should show eth1.
[10:11] <C0nn0R_> Hmm....
[10:11] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, yes
[10:12] <VerumAddo> jim_p its not in that list however
[10:12] <nikin> TiNRiB: i am the one whotweaked UT to thepoint where there where no textures at all :D
[10:12] <Adross> davmonster: there is no ifconfig in fedora 8
[10:12] <sybux> I'd like to know how to configure postfix with spamassasin so that all spam message are moved to the "Spam Folder"
[10:12] <zaggynl> So I thought ext3 didn't fragment: que, ext3 fragments? http://www2.lut.fi/~ilonen/ext3_fragmentation.html
[10:12] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, I just need to know which damn service it is that has to be enabled to make it work :(
[10:12] <jim_p> VerumAddo, no lol. open a new tab and type                 about:plugins         in the addressbar
[10:12] <davmonster> Adross: try sudo ifconfig
[10:12] <TiNRiB> and you still got ur a$$ caned?
[10:12] <jim_p> VerumAddo, do you see flash in there?
[10:12] <Unknown0BC> ne2k__, like some people who don't work for te FBI and CIA and arent very paranoid don't need passwords. Some prefer to have the system log them in automatically. Dig ?
[10:13] <VerumAddo> jim_p negative
[10:13] <Unknown0BC> Thats why I don't like a screen lock to come up after hibernate.
[10:13] <jim_p> VerumAddo, negative as in "i dont see it there" ?
[10:13] <VerumAddo> jim_p its not listed in the list no
[10:13] <Unknown0BC> If anybody knows how to remove it please let me know :)
[10:13] <ne2k__> Unknown0BC: ;-) I don't know, I'm afraid. I suspect it's possible. I'd just like to be able to get hibernate to work at all, to be honest
[10:13] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: What is the services listed ?
[10:14] <jim_p> VerumAddo, ok. remove the package you installed from adobe
[10:14] <Adross> davmonster: yes, if have an ip address
[10:14] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, you want me to list the services?
[10:14] <jim_p> VerumAddo, let me find 9 and install it manually
[10:14] <Adross> davmonster: which is the one i was trying to ssh into from the host address
[10:14] <jim_p> Unknown0BC, are you on ati?
[10:14] <davmonster> Adross: try sudo /etc/init.d/sshd restart from within fedora
[10:14] <Adross> davmonster: *host machine
[10:14] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: Yeah anything to do with networking.
[10:15] <VerumAddo> jim_p actually man dont worry about it... its late i will try to get it going tomorrow, thanks for your help
[10:15] <BonezAU> "networking" and something like "wpa_ipc$"
[10:15] <Adross> davmonster: no joy
[10:15] <VerumAddo> jim_p might just end up upgrading to 8.04
[10:15] <Adross> davmonster: didn't work
[10:15] <davmonster> Adross: try pinging the ip address of the fedora vm from within ubuntu
[10:15] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: Try enabling both of those services.
[10:15] <Unknown0BC> ne2k__, Those functions in my experience usually gives problems. My suspend won't work. You might want to man pm-hibernate look at the quirks.
[10:15] <StormBlade> how can i change gdm theme while using kde
[10:15] <Adross> davmonster: already tried, no response
[10:16] <jim_p> VerumAddo, well i have the installers. do you want me to upload it somewhere?
[10:16] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: And you may need to reboot to see if that works.
[10:16] <Unknown0BC> jim_p, I have ATI redeon yes.
[10:16] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, I did enable both of them and reboot. Google told me to disable them because networkmanager control sthem
[10:16] <VerumAddo> jim_p nah thats okay thanks tho
[10:16] <jim_p> Unknown0BC, and fglrx installed?? if so, how?
[10:16] <BonezAU> i need someone who has had this happen before to help me
[10:16] <jim_p> VerumAddo, you are welcome
[10:16] <BonezAU> i'm a linux sysadmin so i've tried everything i know about
[10:16] <Adross> davmonster: the guest machine can ssh into the host though
[10:16] <davmonster> Adross: looks like virtual networking interface is down for vmbox
[10:16] <BonezAU> its just a stupid problem that is not documented anywhere
[10:16] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: I have had my Broadcom card act up on me but it was a simple fix.
[10:17] <davmonster> Adross: oh. in that case maybe firewall issue or misconfigured sshd on vm
[10:17] <Adross> i've turned off the firewall
[10:17] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: Looked at your network settings in your System menu ?
[10:17] <Adross> where is the firewall config stored?
[10:17] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, yes... shows no wireless adapter
[10:17] <Adross> i might just swap out my ubuntu one into the fedora install
[10:18] <jim_p> Adross, do you use a gui for setting the firewall??
[10:18] <davmonster> Adross: type sudo /etc/init.d/sshd status
[10:18] <C0nn0R_> modprobe -l rt73usb
[10:18] <Adross> jim_p: yes
[10:18] <jim_p> BonezAU, sorry i did not catch the conversation earlies, but what does lspci / lsusb show?
[10:18] <C0nn0R_> See if that does anything.
[10:18] <gregd> hi guys, is it possible to make my ubuntu being a2dp receiver?
[10:19] <Adross> davmonster: it's running
[10:19] <jim_p> Adross, what frontend?
[10:19] <BonezAU> jim_p, it shows the wireless adapter... dmesg also shows it as being registered
[10:19] <gregd> I want to play music wirelessly through my desktop speakers
[10:19] <clusby> Hi, has anyone had problems where kern.log, messages, syslog are huge (2GB)?
[10:19] <jim_p> BonezAU, can you please paste its line here?
[10:19] <clusby> Its all full with "bad: scheduling from the idle thread" messages
[10:19] <Unknown0BC> jim_p, what is fglrx ?
[10:19] <davmonster> Adross: check fedora-specific firewall gui utility for incoming ssh access
[10:19] <BonezAU> jim_p, can't paste it as such since there is no network connectivity to the box :/
[10:19] <C0nn0R_> Driver for ATI cards.
[10:20] <Adross> davmonster: already done, the firewall has since been entirely disabled
[10:20] <BonezAU> it shows up in dmesg as soon as you plug the usb adapter in
[10:20] <jim_p> Unknown0BC, closed source driver for atis, made by ati , VERY problematic
[10:20] <BonezAU> 3 lines of text
[10:20] <jim_p> BonezAU, can you give me a clue at least?
[10:20] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: Did your system work when you hook your computer up to the adaptor ?
[10:20] <jim_p> BonezAU, not dmesg, lsusb!
[10:20] <BonezAU> jim_p, rt73usb: registered
[10:20] <alesan> !vpn
[10:21] <BonezAU> jim_p, hang on
[10:21] <jim_p> BonezAU, so its realtek made
[10:21] <davmonster> Adross: hm.. at a loss to what it might be
[10:21] <davmonster> Adross: try changing vm network adaptor on vmbox if there are other options
[10:21] <NET||abuse> huge problem, my laptop freezes up for 5-10 seconds randomly every now and then..
[10:21] <davmonster> Adross: my vmware for example gives NAT, bridged or host-only
[10:21] <NET||abuse> how can i go about diagnosing this?
[10:22] <alesan> do you have any idea what I have to install to enable the vpn connections? I'd have to login to a CISCO vpn
[10:22] <davmonster> Adross: experiment with the other two if they are available
[10:22] <BonezAU> jim_p, it shows Linksys WUSB54G blah blah [realtek 73usb] or something similar
[10:22] <TiNRiB> davmonster: can you ssh to the VMs whern using NAT?
[10:22] <NET||abuse> i'm on 8.10, dell d630 latitude, compiz etc..
[10:22] <TiNRiB> with firewall down.
[10:22] <jim_p> BonezAU, thanks. give me some time
[10:22] <BonezAU> jim_p, you could have just asked me what chipset it was, i said before it was an rt73usb ;)
[10:22] <NET||abuse> uses nvidia nvs135M gpu card
[10:22] <davmonster> TiNRiB: I can yeah
[10:22] <BonezAU> jim_p, the pc is in a diffent room to where i am so its a bit difficult :)
[10:22] <jim_p> ok lol
[10:22] <TiNRiB> weird: in old vmware workstation 4.x i could
[10:22] <Adross> davmonster: thanks
[10:23] <C0nn0R_> BonezAU: have you tried modprobing the wireless driver ?
[10:23] <C0nn0R_> For your card ?
[10:23] <BonezAU> C0nn0R, thanks for ur help, but you don't seem to understand the issue
[10:23] <Unknown0BC> jim_p, I don't have problems with my graphics. ( not much ) . Is this related to me wanting to remove the lock screen after coming out of hibernate at all ?
[10:23] <davmonster> TiNRiB: I am in vmware ubuntu vm at the moment
[10:23] <davmonster> TiNRiB: but not sure about vbox's networking setup
[10:24] <johannes_> does 32bit software work on an 64 bit OS?
[10:24] <jim_p> Unknown0BC, there is a "service" that takes care of hibernating and stuff. atieventsd is the name. please disable it if you can.
[10:24] <earthling> no johannes
[10:24] <jim_p> BonezAU, modprobing works?
[10:24] <johannes_> is there some kind of 32bit emulator for ubuntu?
[10:24] <jim_p> johannes_, emulator for what?
[10:25] <johannes_> I want to run labview on a 64 bit kubuntu laptop
[10:25] <jim_p> BonezAU, sudo modprobe rt73usb                                if that does not give erros, and the card is seen, then its that !@#$ network manager
[10:25] <BonezAU> jim_p, the module is loaded at boot. modprobing does nothing. there is some form of a service which is not activating at boot which makes networkmanager think that the wireless is disabled. i disabled some services yesterday with sysv-rc-conf and whatever I did, it screwed up the wireless. I don't remember exactly which services i disabled or enabled
[10:25] <johannes_> but there is a 32bit labview version only
[10:26] <jim_p> BonezAU, please remove network manager then
[10:26] <BonezAU> jim_p, i need network manager, its a laptop and i travel a lot
[10:26] <jim_p> johannes_, i think it will run on wine as usual, provided that labview does run on wine!
[10:26] <StevenX> Anyone have a good link on how to boost Ubuntu 8.10 performance?
[10:26] <Sivam> Hi All
[10:26] <jim_p> BonezAU, try wicd! network manager is 110% problem software
[10:27] <johannes_> i meant the 32bit linux version of labview
[10:27] <davmonster> StevenX: in what area?
[10:27] <jim_p> johannes_, sec
[10:27] <Sivam> I wanted to change the keyboard layout of Ubuntu. Please let me know how to change it. do I have to change the key board layout every time I restart the machine ?
[10:27] <earthling> BonezAU : if eth0 shows up in dmesg then its not a problem with network manager
[10:27] <hateball> johannes_❄ you'll need the ia32libs (unsure about spelling) package
[10:27] <BonezAU> jim_p, how am i gonna apt-get it without a connection? :(
[10:28] <StevenX> davmonster, all of them.
[10:28] <BonezAU> earthling, yes that is true. the problem is that i have disabled some kind of service at boot which prevents the wireless from working
[10:28] <davmonster> StevenX: might help to clarify
[10:28] <NET||abuse> rrrr,,, ok, nothing shows up in messages, dmesg has no timestamps so i don't know when anything is arrising.
[10:28] <johannes_> hateball thanks a lot ill have a look
[10:28] <jim_p> BonezAU, wired maybe?
[10:28] <Erant> I've currently got an Ubuntu Hardy Heron install on my system, but I need devfs, is it even remotely possible to downgrade to a devfs kernel?
[10:28] <BonezAU> jim_p, no wired connection available here
[10:28] <jim_p> johannes_, have a look here http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=4556
[10:28] <StevenX> davmonster, not sure really. I was looking for something general. I can't specifically point anything out that is running "slow."
[10:28] <Toznoshio> Hi community, how can I generate at the command line pop-outs sticking out of the notification area (like the one that says "Software updates available")
[10:29] <BonezAU> is there any way to reset all services to ubuntu default??
[10:29] <jim_p> BonezAU, i can tell you its dependencies and conflicts!
[10:29] <Omar87> Is this a correct command to play a sound clip backwards? cat ~/my.mp3 rev | /dev/audio
[10:29] <Unknown0BC> jim_p, will disabling that still mean that hibernate will work, but without the screenlock when it comes out of hibernate ?
[10:29] <davmonster> StevenX: if you are looking for performance, try a more minimal windowmanager like blackbox or fluxbox
[10:29] <BonezAU> jim_p, thanks - but no thanks! if I can get NM working then i'll be more than happy to try WICD
[10:29] <jim_p> Unknown0BC, i can assure you about the screen lock, i cant assure you about the hibernate
[10:29] <davmonster> StevenX: I usually find this improves responsiveness noticably on lower range hardware
[10:29] <rascal_is_here> i have made few exe's which works fine in wine , can i pack them into installation package , that can be installed on ubuntu and appears on application menu?
[10:30] <StevenX> davmonster, thanks. I will look into that. I also found a link that might be helpful for a future question like this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=189192
[10:30] <jim_p> sec people, phonecall

[10:31] <jim_p> BonezAU, i have to leave. i will go put together some IKEA furniture!
[10:32] <Tch23> Hi again!
[10:32] <Unknown0BC> atieventsd is not intalled on this system jim_p.
[10:33] <jim_p> Unknown0BC, how did you check? in fact, how did you install fglrx, if you did so?
[10:33] <DJ_HaMsTa> so by just going to /usr/sbin/sshd after generating ssh keys, that would start the ssh serveR ?
[10:34] <Tch23> I got two sound cards (internal and USB). I got the USB as default and I got sound... But the sound level is mad! I can't set it, cause it goes up n down. The left becomes independant of the right... I'm puzzled
[10:34] <hischild> DJ_HaMsTa, a bit of the story would be nice. Anyway, this restarts an SSH server. --> sudo /etc/init.d/sshd restart
[10:34] <hischild> Tch23, use alsamixer on command line.
[10:34] <DJ_HaMsTa> hischild: just looking at http://www.offensive-security.com/movies/01intro/01intro.html
[10:35] <Tch23> hischild: yeah but it can only be a temporary solution
[10:35] <noxo> hey
[10:35] <DJ_HaMsTa> ty that would also help
[10:36] <Everett> Thanks to everyone for their help earlier.  I was finally able to get Intrepid installed with Orca in Virtualbox.l
[10:36] <Unknown0BC> jim_p, whereis atieventd
[10:36] <noxo> dunno
[10:36] <Unknown0BC> atieventsd

[10:57] <davmonster> [c0re]: I'd try: sudo lsmod | grep nv

[11:03] <mikevankuik> [c0re]: do I need to uncomment anything like the #!/bin/sh -e part to make it work? or just put it in there and let it go?
[11:04] <balau_> StevenX, by virtual desktops you mean workspaces?
[11:04] <hischild> mikevankuik, #!/bin/sh is a shebang part of a script. It states what program should be used for that script.
[11:04] <StevenX> balau_, yes.
[11:04] <Tch23> Toznoshio: I just want to "plug" my shortcut the one output setting
[11:05] <balau_> StevenX, right-click on the workspace switcher (bottom right if you haven't moved it) and set the desired number

[11:08] <nik0n> hi, my ubuntu has strange library links that dont work for me for development. librarys are only linked this way: libSM.so.6.0 -> libSM.so.6 and not as it should be a link from libSM.so.6.9 to libSM.so
[11:08] <nik0n> any ideas?
[11:08] <balau> mikevankuik, that comment is special, it is used to know how to execute the file. Leave it commented
[11:08] <wiehan> my sound is extremely choppy (it's horrible) in intrepid, it wasn't like that in hardy - please help
[11:08] <mikevankuik> balau: oke thanx
[11:09] <balau> mikevankuik, long story short, when you execute the file XXX it really executes /bin/sh -e XXX
[11:10] <mikevankuik> balau: ok :) in other words leave it alone :D lol

[11:17] <nm_> The problem is, on the server side I have thant in /var/log/messages: EAP: unauthenticated peer name "nm-laptop"

[11:23] <BonezAU> hi, after i rebooted, network manager shows both the wired and wireless connections as being greyed out / not available. when I do an ifconfig it shows eth0 but not eth1 (wireless usb adapter) lsusb shows the wlan adapter but networkmanager refuses to see it.
[11:24] <nachi_> hello all! hey, i want to create a cronjob that downloading my online server's backup (.tar) to my local one.. i have ftp / ssh .. any idea? ... thanks!
[11:24] <Toznoshio> BonezAU, you may have to use ndiswrapper
[11:25] <BonezAU> Toznoshio, never had to before... i have a compatible rt73usb wireless adapter
[11:25] <BonezAU> Toznoshio, it just randomly stopped working
[11:26] <Toznoshio> BonezAU, what happens if you restart eth1?
[11:26] <BonezAU> Toznoshio, ?
[11:26] <BonezAU> Toznoshio, you mean ifdown / ifup eth 1?
[11:26] <Toznoshio> yes
[11:26] <BonezAU> Toznoshio, i've restarted the PC about 8 times today and still can't get a connection
[11:27] <BonezAU> all the options in network manager are greyed out
[11:27] <Toznoshio> BonezAU, try wicd instead f network manager
[11:27] <asfjio> hello, how can i change the apt-get mirror list without GUI?
[11:28] <BonezAU> Toznoshio, I knew you were going to say that... lol. The PC has no connectivity - it's wireless only... do you know if I can download a .deb and install it for wicd?
[11:28] <erki> asfijo: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:28] <Toznoshio> BonezAU, let me look around
[11:28] <erki> !sources.list
[11:29] <asfjio> erki: thank you
[11:29] <BonezAU> Toznoshio, I am looking at the wicd home page and it just shows how to add the repos and apt-get it.. i should be able to track down a .deb file hopefully
[11:32] <Toznoshio> BonezAU, look here http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=194573
[11:33] <Toznoshio> BonezAU, here is another link: http://garr.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/wicd/wicd_1.5.6_all.deb

[11:35] <AdvoWork> hi there,im trying to add an entry into /etc/fstab, im doing: //192.168.0.whatever/share /home/whatever cifs exec  this normally works but it keeps asking for a password, there is no password for this share but there is a username. I tried cifs user=myusername exec but it said it was bad, any ideas please?
[11:35] <derto> are there any way to install a base sistem and then install kdebase for example? Because I don't like that ubuntu or kubuntu come with a lot of things that I don't use
[11:36] <catmando> hey all
[11:36] <Toznoshio> AdvoWork, create a credentials file with a blank password
[11:38] <Toznoshio> !samba > Toznoshio
[11:38] <AdvoWork> Toznoshio, im now doing:  cifs,username=operator exec and its saying: mount: unknown filesystem type 'username=operator'  :S
[11:38] <Guest77849> hello
[11:40] <Toznoshio> AdvoWork, look for the keyword credentials at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
[11:41] <miguel> hello, good day
[11:41] <Guest49762> Y need do a transmision/reception In GnuRadio at OFDM
[11:41] <Guest49762> somebody can help me
[11:42] <Guest77849> 19 f cali here
[11:42] <inertial> anyone got a link to how vista does the default disk partitioning?
[11:42] <AdvoWork> Toznoshio, i dont get what you mean
[11:42] <inertial> i'm trying to recover a friend's vista disk
[11:42] <asfjio> how can i say to apt-get to install an older version of package for example mplayer 1.5 if it is valid version?
[11:42] <catmando> any developers or maintainers around?
[11:43] <Toznoshio> AdvoWork, store the user ID and password in a separate file
[11:43] <Guest49762> GNURADIO-->OFDM, somebody know who do the transmision/Reception?
[11:43] <ompaul> catmando, ask your question and if anyone can answer they will, if you need to be redirected you will be
[11:44] <catmando> the 8.10 alternate cd never installs a bootloader if you choose any type of lvm setup
[11:46] <catmando> also i'm pretty sure the actual lvm partitioning system itself is borked
[11:46] <catmando> since trying the rescue option shows all partitions as 'not in use'
[11:46] <catmando> and no, you can't just select the grub install option
[11:47] <catmando> that doesn't work either
[11:47] <erki> catmando: Sounds like something that needs to be put in a bug-report!
[11:47] <catmando> erki: oh it's going in one
[11:48] <BonezAU> hi, which service needs to be started at boot to enable USB devices? I disabled some services last night with sysv-rc-conf and now my USB devices wont work :(
[11:48] <catmando> erki: i was just wondering if this is knowns already
[11:48] <catmando> erki: the quality of each ubuntu release gets worse and worse
[11:48] <catmando> it's as if there's no testing at all
[11:49] <maek0> BonezAU, check that dbus is working (I think)
[11:49] <BonezAU> maek0, dbus is working
[11:52] <BonezAU> please help, none of my USB devices are being detected
[11:53] <obi_> i did something very stupid and accidently removed all the icons on my menubar, my network manager, battery indicator, is there a way to get those back because now i cant log on to wirelsss?
[11:53] <maek0> BonezAU, maybe try and look at this link: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/how-to-disable-usb-mass-storage-device-usb-drive-in-linux-651262/  just do the opposite to what it says
[11:54] <obi_> or is there a way to just reset my settings to an earlier configuration?
[11:54] <erki> obi_: Right-click menubar, hit "Add applet" and just add the ones you want
[11:54] <inertial> is it possible to mount a vista partition in linux?
[11:55] <bimberi> obi_: not sure about reset.  Notification Area is the applet with NM and battery
[11:55] <hateball> !ntfs | inertial
[11:55] <BonezAU> maek0, it is not only usb storage that won't work, it's also my usb wireless adapter - so I don't think that will have any effect
[11:55] <inertial> the vista disk is showing up as 3 partitions, and the guys in the windows channel are telling me that the vista disks should just have one partition
[11:56] <ikonia> inertial: vista problems are solved in ##windows please
[11:56] <obi_> bimberi: thank you, awesome, im really glad that the problem was im a moron. fixed it.
[11:56] <mee> i have an xchat question
[11:56] <hypnus9> !server
[11:56] <inertial> right.. i just figured some people here might have exp with vista/ubuntu
[11:56] <inertial> i'm trying to fix a friend's laptop
[11:56] <BonezAU> inertial, we do
[11:57] <bimberi> obi_: cool.  (except the too-hard-on-yourself bit about being moron :) )
[11:57] <ikonia> inertial plenty of experience with windows/ubuntu, but your asking how to fix windows
[11:57] <inertial> and it seemed strange that it was showing up 3 partitions when i expected 1
[11:57] <ikonia> inertial: thats a windows issue
[11:57] <DJ_HaMsTa> inertial: thats fine
[11:57] <inertial> i'm just asking how many partitions i should be seeing from linux
[11:57] <BonezAU> inertial, pm me
[11:57] <ikonia> inertial: you'll see how ever many are on the disks
[11:58] <ZeroA4> inertial, windows usually have only one but can have more... it is not wrong or anything
[11:58] <Pretto> obi_, try to remove the .gnome* directory inside your home, but make a backup first... that might help
[11:58] <inertial> it's probably some weird oem thing
[11:58] <ikonia> why would it be an oem thing ?
[11:58] <ikonia> anyway - thats a question for ##windows pelae
[11:58] <ottarw> does anyone knows how to install xfce over debian
[11:58] <ZeroA4> inertial,maybe... some oems create rescue partitions
[11:58] <ottarw> ?
[11:59] <ikonia> ottarw: join #debian please
[11:59] <mee> ikonia why am i getting the error "There was an error loading key bindings configuration" when i type "xchat -d /usr/bin/.xchat-alt"???
[11:59] <ikonia> mee: I've not idea what .xchat-alt is
[11:59] <bimberi> or what it would be doing in /usr/bin !
[11:59] <mee> does anyone know?
[12:00] <BonezAU> i disabled some services, now USB wont work. can anyone tell me which service it is that I need to activate at boot to make usb work? pleeeeeeeeease?
[12:00] <ikonia> BonezAU does lsbu still show a device
[12:00] <ikonia> BonezAU: which services did you stop
[12:00] <ikonia> BonezAU: lsusb sorry
[12:01] <BonezAU> ikonia, yes, but networkmanager wont detect my usb wireless card and if i put a 2gb usb flash stick in it also does not automatically mount. dmesg shows the devices as being connected though
[12:01] <bimberi> mee:  should it be: xchat -d ~/.xchat-alt  ?
[12:01] <BonezAU> ikonia, i don't remember - that is the problem.... !! :(
[12:01] <ikonia> BonezAU sounds like hal and dbus
[12:01] <toehio> hello
[12:01] <Ximal> hey ikonia ... did u get my pounces ?
[12:02] <mee> oohhhhhhhhhhho k
[12:02] <BonezAU> ikonia, both hal and dbus are running at runlevel 5, is there any other run levels they need to be active at?
[12:02] <ikonia> Ximal: sorry no, just got back to my desk
[12:02] <ikonia> BonezAU: thats a problem then
[12:02] <ikonia> BonezAU: ubuntu doesn't use run level 5
[12:02] <ikonia> BonezAU: ubuntu only uses run level 1 and 2 now
[12:02] <Ximal> hold on i'll give u my pastebin again then.
[12:02] <BonezAU> ikonia, which is 'boot to x' is that runlevel 2?
[12:02] <ikonia> Ximal: thanks
[12:02] <Ximal> http://pastebin.ca/1281460 <--
[12:02] <ikonia> BonezAU yes thats run level 2
[12:02] <BonezAU> ikonia, awesome. brb i am going to make some changes and reboot. thanks!
[12:03] <toehio> When I boot it gets up too starting HALD but does not reach vesa. The only thing I changed in my computer is replaced an ATI witha GeForce 9600 GT (which should work). How do I solve this problem?
[12:03] <ZeroA4> BonezAU, did hal asked you "BonezAU what are you doing ?" when you tried to disable it ?
[12:03] <ZeroA4> ;)
[12:03] <ottarw> do you know any chat that soport voice ?
[12:03] <ikonia> Ximal ooh interesting, so are you actually trying to use tor as a http proxy ?
[12:03] <mee> still getting the same error!
[12:03] <ikonia> Ximal: I missunderstood the problem until I saw that
[12:03] <Ximal> not really.. i just installed it period
[12:04] <Ximal> and installed privoxy like the community page here said too.. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TOR
[12:04] <ikonia> Ximal can you pastebin the output of "env" please
[12:04] <neko> hi people
[12:04] <erki> ottarw: Ekiga and Skype, I guess.
[12:04] <BonezAU> ZeroA4, unfortunately no, he didn't. I wish he did now!
[12:04] <ottarw> ok tnks
[12:04] <BonezAU> ikonia, hal and dbus were running at runlevels 2, 3, 4, 5 but networking was only running at 4 and 5... maybe that is the problem
[12:04] <neko> how do i make files writable for the group at creation ?
[12:05] <ikonia> BonezAU well possibly, but that doesn't explain usb not automounting
[12:05] <ikonia> neko change the umask or setgid on the directory
[12:05] <Ximal> http://pastebin.ca/1281564
[12:05] <Ximal> what would i be looking for in the env output ..
[12:05] <ikonia> Ximal lokinf for proxy info
[12:06] <ikonia> no_proxy=localhost,<IP_ADDRESS>/8,*.local
[12:06] <ikonia> I think thats the key
[12:06] <ikonia> Ximal as I understand this config you've just setup, its saying use tor as a proxy for EVERYTHING except <IP_ADDRESS> or .local domains
[12:06] <neko> ikonia, something like that : umask XXX /some/folder ?
[12:06] <ikonia> Ximal: so when you hit the net over http iot wants to use tor (as it's non local) as a http proxy
[12:07] <ikonia> neko: just umask xxx should do it for the user
[12:07] <Ximal> ok... well i don't understand this if u'd walk me through the fix..
[12:07] <ikonia> Ximal: does that make sese
[12:08] <Ximal> i understand that the ip routing is contradicting if that's what u mean..
[12:08] <ikonia> Ximal: let me work out the fie, your going to have to put a rule in that no_proxy enviornment that says something like " <IP_ADDRESS> or *.canonical or whatever your synaptic repo address is
[12:08] <Ximal> ahh...
[12:08] <ikonia> Ximal: give me a minute or two to read up how this works, I don't use tor so don't know
[12:08] <ikonia> I'm learning as I go
[12:08] <Ximal> well when i use a test site to test the tor it tells me i'm not using tor in any way
[12:08] <Guest82065> what the fuck
[12:08] <Guest82065> whats this server?
[12:09] <Ximal> umm yeah..
[12:09] <Guest82065> i am bac
[12:09] <Guest82065> k
[12:09] <ikonia> Guest82065: control your language
[12:09] <Guest82065> i can
[12:09] <Guest82065> t
[12:09] <ikonia> Ximal what test site ar eyou hitting ?
[12:09] <Ximal> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TOR
[12:10] <neko> ikonia, umask don't seem to work
[12:10] <Ximal> torcheck.xenobite.eu
[12:10] <ikonia> Ximal: reading - this is new to me
[12:10] <neko> ikonia, wait i must have mistake

[12:11] <syanddyl1> nick
[12:11] <neko> the umask equivalent for 664 would be : 113 ?
[12:12] <fermio91> hi all i've a problem with my pendrive... i cannot modify any files inside the stick or create a new one (files inside the stick)...
[12:12] <Ximal> u tried using chmod 777 on tht drive fermio91 ?
[12:12] <ikonia> fermio91 is the file system fat 32 ?
[12:13] <fermio91> Ximal: no, i won't use it, i would use the simple file manager to open it
[12:13] <fermio91> Ximal: as i done before
[12:13] <Ximal> hmm well then it must be something more for ikonia ..
[12:13] <fermio91> ikonia: i don't know
[12:14] <BonezAU> none of my usb devices are working. can anyone help?\
[12:14] <fermio91> ikonia: it worked some days ago...
[12:15] <marks730> why the ssh permitrootlogin is yes when i change my ubuntu password -  sudo passwd root  ??
[12:15] <BonezAU> marks730, root is disabled by default. if you enable it; it also enables shh
[12:15] <BonezAU> marks730, ssh rather
[12:16] <BonezAU> marks730, logging in as root is frowned apon, you should always use sudo where possible
[12:16] <marks730> yes- it's by default - and when i change first time - sudo passwd root - then ssh config make changes..
[12:16] <BonezAU> marks730, yes
[12:17] <BonezAU> none of my usb devices are working. can anyone help?\

[12:20] <fermio91> ok, i repeat my question: i've a problem with my pendrive... i cannot modify any files inside the stick or create a new one (files inside the stick)...
[12:20] <BonezAU> none of my usb devices are working. can anyone help?\

[12:32] <Ximal> it's ok ikonia.. i'm watching the new resident evil
[12:32] <ikonia> peleg: thats set in your view, just zoom in
[12:32] <SEA> hello :-)
[12:33] <peleg> ikonia, no, the icons of the folders stayed in the same size (I don't want to enlarge them) -- only the emblems became tiny (really tiny)
[12:34] <ikonia> psicobra: emblems ? what do you mean
[12:34] <ikonia> peleg: what do you mean by emblems if not the icons
[12:35] <gnutron> peleg: you should be able to click the +/-% to the left of 'view as whatever' bar.
[12:36] <peleg> ikonia, there's a folder, and you can stick (in Gnome) an emblem on it, such as "Erase", "Art", and so on
[12:36] <gnutron> peleg: intrepid, just curious?
[12:36] <ikonia> Ximal: is tor urrently working for everything
[12:36] <Ximal> nope
[12:36] <ikonia> Ximal: sorry for anything
[12:36] <Ximal> not for anything as far as i can tell
[12:36] <ikonia> Ximal: ok, I'm getting a better picture here

[12:36] <ikonia> Ximal: tor does support http, so it look slike tor is not setup correctly to support http
[12:36] <Paolo88> I go out. tanks at all!
[12:37] <neko> ikonia, thanks about the umask stuff
[12:37] <bazhang> !webcam | angeleyes read this
[12:37] <ikonia> neko: no sweat, glad your sorted
[12:37] <neko> ikonia, it seems to work
[12:37] <gnutron> ikonia: your reactor core must be getting mighty warm you need a break :)
[12:37] <DarkKnight> hey wen i try 2 open a file done on photoshop....my GIMP says that it cannot support 16-bit channel PSD files..... any idea how to solve this....
[12:37] <peleg> gnutron, I have no idea where should I press +/- or what is "view as" bar. What is intrepid?
[12:37] <ikonia> gnutron: I am stable
[12:37] <neko> ikonia, i set it definitvly via .profile ?
[12:37] <Ximal> k
[12:37] <ikonia> neko: .bash_profile
[12:37] <gnutron> ikonia: great wotk
[12:38] <neko> it will be okey with creation from any software ?
[12:38] <jonalv> okey so I am very lazy. (don't wanna learn comman line programs if I don't have to) thjere is a graphical user and groups management tool right? What's it's name? How do I start it from commandline when I have done "ssh -X"?
[12:38] <ikonia> neko: should be
[12:38] <ikonia> jonalv: it's launched from the gome menu
[12:38] <gnutron> peleg: in the upper bars, right side of screen, do you see a percentage sign, or 'view as list' or icons
[12:39] <jonalv> ikonia: as in I can not launch from command line?
[12:39] <neko> i maybe need to relog
[12:39] <DarkKnight> hey wen i try 2 open a file done on photoshop....my GIMP says that it cannot support 16-bit channel PSD files..... any idea how to solve this....
[12:39] <ikonia> jonalv: you can but you'll need to use gksudo and nkow the name of ti, but I wouldn't use any critical gui tool like a useradmin one over the internet
[12:39] <jonalv> ikonia: hm good point...

[12:40] <bazhang> !webcam > angeleyes
[12:40] <peleg> gnutron, well, just as I told ikonia: This resizes the icons, the the emblems. The icons are just fine: I want to enlarge the emblems, they became so tiny that it's difficult for me to distinguish between them
[12:41] <ikonia> Ximal: does ps -ef | grep -i priv show privoxy running ?
[12:41] <gnutron> peleg: i guess i don't understand what the emblems are.
[12:41] <ikonia> gnutron: I don't either
[12:42] <AdvoWork> im doing: rsync -a -u "/home/backup/" "//<IP_ADDRESS>/Backup$" and its giving me the error:  rsync: mkdir "//<IP_ADDRESS>/Backup$" failed: No such file or directory (2)  any ideas why? those locations exist..
[12:42] <DarkKnight> ikonia; no gurus on gimp...all are lazy
[12:42] <ikonia> DarkKnight: no, they are just not at their keyboard, wait for a response there
[12:42] <gnutron> peleg: you're talking about the 'places' column?
[12:42] <ikonia> AdvoWork: looks like it doens't exist
[12:42] <AdvoWork> ikonia, what bit doesnt exist?
[12:42] <peleg> gnutron, you can change that column to "Emblems", and add emblems to your icons
[12:43] <ikonia> AdvoWork: looks like the backup dir
[12:43] <ikonia> AdvoWork: don't forget you have to have the absoulte path defined as a "share" for aess
[12:43] <ikonia> access
[12:43] <gnutron> peleg: ok, you taught me, i rarely use nautilus but thanks.
[12:43] <AdvoWork> ikonia, you mean: //<IP_ADDRESS>/Backup$ doesnt exist? if i type that in, it takes me to the folder
[12:44] <peleg> ikonia, do you have any idea?
[12:44] <ikonia> peleg: I don't understand what your asking, so no
[12:44] <keystr0k> When listening to music on my external hard drive using Rhythmbox or Banshee (and probably others) the audio stutters every 10-20 seconds. Any ideas?
[12:45] <ikonia> keystr0k: check the hardware buffer on the drive
[12:45] <pumpkin_> i'm on ubuntu 8.10, using gnome: what can i use to replace file-roller? it crashes too much to be usable (yes, i filled bugs. several. other the last 2 years)
[12:45] <peleg> ikonia, look at this picture: http://www.actsofvolition.com/images/screenshots/gnome-emblems.png
[12:45] <peleg> ikonia, or just do F9 in Nautilus, and on the left bar choose Emblems. You can then drag them on an icon
[12:46] <keystr0k> ikonia, is this something I can change?
[12:46] <AdvoWork> ikonia, so if i can get to that share, why else wouldnt it work? :S
[12:46] <peleg> As I said, the icons are of good size, but the emblems, while applied to an icon, are too small.
[12:46] <ikonia> AdvoWork: just looking at your rssync command
[12:46] <ikonia> keystr0k: hdparm
[12:46] <ikonia> peleg: looksl ike the icon graphics have just changed then
[12:46] <keystr0k> ikonia, whoa!
[12:47] <rev667> good morning
[12:47] <peleg> ikonia, I don't think so. These are SVG files, and they are scalable, and they are in my home folder; I don't think that the upgrade had overwritten the graphic files themselves
[12:47] <rev667> i am have some problems
[12:47] <ikonia> peleg no idea
[12:47] <abarai_renji> !webcam
[12:47] <russian> hi, guys. i have some problems with my rdesktop. when i try to connect to my ms server 2008 i get such mestake "ERROR: Failed to extract public key from certificate". my tsclien work fine. Google don't give me answer. Any ideas?
[12:48] <AdvoWork> ikonia,  oki
[12:48] <ikonia> russian what are you connecting from
[12:48] <rev667> tried to re-install ubuntu from 8.10 live cd and the install failed with an i/o error. now i have an unbootable system
[12:48] <russian> from ubuntu :)
[12:48] <peleg> ikonia, thanks.
[12:48] <Chriger[Ecl]> When installing Ubuntu on VM Ware do you just do a normal instal?
[12:48] <ikonia> Chriger[Ecl]: works fine
[12:48] <SlimeyPete> Chriger[Ecl]: yes
[12:48] <Chriger[Ecl]> ty :)
[12:48] <keystr0k> ikonia, Sorry... but how do I determine which drive my external is (/dev/????) It's auto-mounted and not in fstab
[12:49] <Silicium> hi there
[12:49] <ikonia> keystr0k /etc/mtab
[12:49] <russian> ikonia, i have ubuntu 7.10
[12:49] <Silicium> Anyone know how i can Compile mISDN at $ubuntu-version?
[12:49] <Silicium> is a know big problem with this
[12:49] <Silicium> and i cant find any solution
[12:49] <Symbi0nt^D5> can I ban an application from beeing installed or so?
[12:50] <ikonia> Symbi0nt^D5: don't install it
[12:50] <keystr0k> ikonia, thanks :)  readahead 256 (on)
[12:50] <ikonia> Symbi0nt^D5: it's that simple
[12:50] <ikonia> keystr0k: good man ! well done
[12:50] <Symbi0nt^D5> well I am in an office and my employee shall not install it
[12:50] <Symbi0nt^D5> so its not that simple
[12:50] <Symbi0nt^D5> he is not an uberlinuxgeek so
[12:50] <ikonia> Symbi0nt^D5: don't give him permissions to install softare
[12:50] <keystr0k> ikonia, are you mocking me?
[12:50] <Symbi0nt^D5> if there is a cfg file I can use or so it would do the trick
[12:50] <ikonia> keystr0k: no, saying well done for finding it
[12:51] <keystr0k> ikonia, oh! haha.
[12:51] <gnutron> Symbi0nt^D5: remove them from /etc/sudoers
[12:51] <ikonia> Symbi0nt^D5: remove his synaptic permissions from his sudo profile
[12:51] <Symbi0nt^D5> synaptic :>
[12:51] <angeleyes> i want to use my webcam on kopete insntant messanage but the other person cannot see the cam can any one help
[12:51] <Symbi0nt^D5> okay will check that ...
[12:51] <ikonia> angeleyes you've asked many times and ubottu has sent you a link to read
[12:51] <ikonia> angeleyes: have you read that link
[12:52] <gnutron> Symbi0nt^D5: remove them from /etc/sudoers you need to use 'visudo' for that.
[12:52] <Robbie_Crash> How long should it take to tar -cjpf 823GB of data?
[12:52] <ikonia> Robbie_Crash: too many variables to say
[12:52] <angeleyes> i did i did not give me wat i wanted
[12:52] <Robbie_Crash> ikonia mostly movies, music and compressed images
[12:52] <spacey_> Robbie_Crash, depends on your hardware ;)
[12:52] <ikonia> Robbie_Crash: contents doesn't matter, too many variables to say
[12:52] <Symbi0nt^D5> thank you
[12:52] <Robbie_Crash> spacey_ that's not good. Old AMD 3400+
[12:52] <fograven> what is libc development package and where can I get it?
[12:53] <ikonia> fograven:  it's in synaptic and it's the core c library development package
[12:53] <spacey_> Robbie_Crash, its hardly worth compressing compressed/music/images/videos anyway
[12:53] <spacey_> they are already very compact
[12:53] <gnutron> Robbie_Crash: thats going to takes hours probably.
[12:53] <ikonia> AdvoWork: strugglging to see a problem with your command
[12:53] <fograven> a lot of stuff came up which do I need?
[12:53] <ikonia> AdvoWork: does the user have write permissions to that share
[12:53] <spacey_> bz2 is particularly slow as well
[12:54] <ikonia> fograven depends what your looking for
[12:54] <djaj10> hi
[12:54] <Toznoshio> Hi community, how can I generate at the command line pop-outs sticking out of the notification area (like the one that says "Software updates available")
[12:54] <outboard> i cant get my web cam to work and i have read all the links everywhere, i give up , it is not that important
[12:54] <ikonia> fograven: not to be mystical, but stuff is broken intro seperate packages
[12:54] <fograven> well I was trying to re install my nvidia driver aagin
[12:54] <ikonia> Toznoshio: gnome event triggers, it's in the gnome-desktop api
[12:54] <Robbie_Crash> gnutron it's already taken 12, and my tarball is only 20GB :(
[12:54] <ikonia> fograven: what is wrong the drivers packages in #ubuntu ?
[12:54] <coz_> hey guys  how can I get pulseaudio to stop running in services? I have use sysv-rc-conf and everything else inslucing uninstalling some pulseaudo stuff
[12:55] <fograven> well my sound has been messed up
[12:55] <ikonia> fograven how is sound related to your video card ?
[12:55] <gnutron> Robbie_Crash: probably days. it would  be quicker to scp it all to a remote box
[12:55] <fograven> lol have no clue
[12:56] <ikonia> fograven so why are you re-installing your nvidai dirvers ?
[12:56] <AdvoWork> ikonia, ive changed it around a bit, think its working
[12:56] <keystr0k> ikonia, how does this look? Timing buffered disk reads:   76 MB in  3.01 seconds =  25.26 MB/sec
[12:56] <fograven> I had an image update
[12:56] <ikonia> keystr0k a little lower than I would like, but depends on a lot so not bad
[12:56] <rev667> anyone got an idea about how i can use the live cd to burn another copy?
[12:57] <[c0re]> NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (Permission denied).
[12:57] <ikonia> rev667: yup, boot the livecd, download another to the desktop, then burn itr
[12:57] <[c0re]> anyidea how to fix it?
[12:57] <fograven> this is the first time I got that alert/warning
[12:57] <rev667> tried that
[12:57] <ikonia> [c0re]: look at the permissions on that device
[12:57] <ikonia> rev667: what's the problem ?
[12:57] <fivetwentysix> rev667: Rip the CD in to a ISO and then burn using that image you created.
[12:57] <rev667> it won't allow me access to the cd
[12:57] <fograven> that libc dev package was missing
[12:57] <fograven> do I need it?
[12:57] <ikonia> fograven why are you re-installing your nvidia drivers to fix the sound/
[12:58] <fivetwentysix> rev667, the cd has to be blank...
[12:58] <[c0re]> ikonia, how do i do it?
[12:58] <fograven> its two different fixes
[12:58] <gnutron> fograven: dev packages shouldnt be needed unless you're compiling stuff
[12:58] <rev667> seems the cd is in use (which is unsuprising considering i'm using the live cd)
[12:58] <jtravnick> Im dualbooting ubuntu 8.4 and windows xp have everything set up only problem when i set the time in one than the time is wrong in the other I know theres something i need to change just cant seam to find it
[12:58] <fograven> cool
[12:58] <Ximal> hey ikonia i'm going to shoot u a pm... cause i need to go afk
[12:58] <ikonia> no problem
[12:59] <Robbie_Crash> gnutron I don't have 800+GB of space on a remote box. Tarring it up over the network is nope too since I'm only on wireless here.
[12:59] <Robbie_Crash> I guess it's not a huge issue, since even non-compressed it doesn't fill up my external, and I only use the external for backups
[12:59] <[c0re]> NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (Permission denied).
[12:59] <[c0re]> ikonia, how do i do it?
[12:59] <rev667> i can't eject the live cd while running it, which kinda makes sense, but still leaves me with an unbootable system
[12:59] <gnutron> Robbie_Crash: depending on the file formats, you may not get much compression. unless the are text files.
[12:59] <AdvoWork> how do you use rsync if you need to put a username, and a host, and a password? ive done the user and hosts like: $username@$host:  but unsure about password?
[13:00] <ikonia> [c0re] look at the permissons on /dev//dev/nvidiactl
[13:00] <Newb`s> [c0re]: cd /dev/ && ls -lh
[13:00] <ikonia> AdvoWork password is tough, I don't think you can pass a password
[13:01] <ikonia> AdvoWork: thought you had to use keys or null password accounts
[13:01] <Robbie_Crash> gnutron Someone in here was saying the other night they knocked about 15GB off of 150 of normal data, movies, mp3s, pictures, etc...
[13:01] <Robbie_Crash> So I figured I'd try... an 80GB savings would be nice, but not if it's going to turn a 7 hour job into a 5 day job
[13:01] <Newb`s> [c0re]: cd /dev/ && ls -lh | grep nvidiactl
[13:01] <AdvoWork> ikonia, ive seen something like password-file=location but unsure
[13:02] <ikonia> AdvoWork you could possible get it to auth against a samba file format ?
[13:02] <Newb`s> [c0re]: and say what is writen before the name of the file
[13:02] <ikonia> AdvoWork: samba password file format I mena
[13:02] <[c0re]> dude
[13:02] <[c0re]> 0 crw-------
[13:03] <AdvoWork> ikonia, how do you do that?
[13:03] <gnutron> Robbie_Crash: mp3s are compressed to start with, but those figures may be accurate. to an extent
[13:03] <[c0re]> Newb`s, ikonia 0 crw-------
[13:03] <ikonia> AdvoWork no idea, but as samba is rsync's family I'm making an assumption, not fact
[13:03] <Newb`s> [c0re]: k, wait plz
[13:03] <Robbie_Crash> gnutron still not worth it
[13:04] <Robbie_Crash> no compression is good enough
[13:04] <[c0re]> Newb`s, if i run sudo chmod go+rw /dev/nvidia*... its works but i have to do it every restart
[13:05] <Newb`s> hum
[13:05] <gnutron> AdvoWork: heres my rsync for one directory ifit helps. rsync -avz Music/ linux@<IP_ADDRESS>:Music  thats local box to remote box.
[13:05] <ikonia> [c0re]: thats because of udev
[13:05] <[c0re]> ikonia, how do i fix it?
[13:05] <ikonia> [c0re]: change the udev rules
[13:06] <[c0re]> how do i do it?
[13:06] <gnutron> Robbie_Crash: i would connect a slave drive or external and copy
[13:06] <AdvoWork> gnutron,  cheers, did that ever need a password?
[13:06] <ikonia> [c0re]: the rules are in /etc/udev.d
[13:07] <kouwe> folks i have a problem, i have a fresh installation of ubuntu 8.10. Only when i put my ATI graphic pci-e card in slot it hangs on boot... Error rc-default 255 .. someone pls
[13:07] <gnutron> AdvoWork: yes, it will ask for the destination user's pass
[13:07] <[c0re]> ikonia, what should i add there?
[13:07] <AdvoWork> gnutron,  i need to automate that.. ive seen --password-file=... but cant see how to use it
[13:07] <ikonia> [c0re]: look at the rules that control that device and change the permissions on it
[13:08] <gnutron> AdvoWork: google rsync, ive seen some good pages on that.
[13:09] <uberadm> I want to tell ubuntu not to look for an eth0 ip addy during startup... what config file do I change?
[13:09] <Robbie_Crash> gnutron it's already going over to an external. I really don't currently *need* the compression, so I'm going to ignore it for now.
[13:10] <ardaking> -it
[13:10] <[c0re]> ikonia, KERNEL=="nvidia*", NAME="%k", GROUP="c0re"
[13:11] <gnutron> Robbie_Crash: by the time you compressed, they could be copied, the problem is available drives/media etc., good luck tho'
[13:13] <gnutron> AdvoWork: http://troy.jdmz.net/rsync/index.html   ....this has what you need.
[13:14] <[c0re]> NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (Permission denied).
[13:15] <gnutron> [c0re]: did you use sudo prefixing the command?
[13:16] <[c0re]> gnutron, no
[13:16] <TuxSympathiser> I think I may have the killer ethernet bug!
[13:16] <[c0re]> Newb`s,
[13:16] <[c0re]> you there?
[13:17] <TuxSympathiser> can somebody please advise me what to do?
[13:17] <Newb`s> No, sorry
[13:17] <neko> hey if i do umask 113
[13:17] <Untamle> Can please anyone tell me, how can I make a sign I will continue editing an article in Wikipedia? I saw people can do this, but I don't know how... Thank you.
[13:17] <neko> i could not create file or folder in new created folder
[13:19] <[c0re]> Newb`s, sorry i didnt see  your pm
[13:19] <asfjio> hello, when i make "apt-get update" i see some "Failed to fetch http://some_url  404 Not Found". what could be the problem?
[13:20] <rrecio> asfjio: which ubuntu version are you using?
[13:20] <gnutron> neko: umask 022 is a good idea, thats octal 644 for files, 755 for dirs.
[13:21] <neko> i need 664 and 775
[13:21] <gnutron> asfjio: try using a different mirror
[13:21] <neko> so it would be 002 ?
[13:22] <TuxSympathiser> my computer is crashing due to the ethernet, I think it may be the killer bug!
[13:22] <rrecio> asfjio: check your /etc/apt/sources.list
[13:22] <gnutron> neko: this explains it well. http://www.tech-faq.com/umask.shtml
[13:23] <kouwe> help... i have a fresh installation of ubuntu 8.10. Only when i put my ATI graphic pci-e card in slot it hangs on boot... Error rc-default 255 .. someone pls
[13:23] <ikonia> kouwe boot into safe mode
[13:23] <kouwe> ok
[13:24] <Nith> Does anyone have any experience with the iomega eGo USB drive working with linux/ubuntu?
[13:24] <kouwe> ikonia: can i change something in safe mode to get this work?
[13:24] <ikonia> kouwe lets se what happens first
[13:24] <neko> gnutron thanks
[13:24] <asfjio> rrecio: i think it is feisty
[13:24] <neko> i think i get it
[13:24] <kouwe> ikona: good idea
[13:25] <rrecio> asfjio: check for feisty apt mirror on the web, and change the urls on /etc/apt/sources.list
[13:26] <rookeeeeeeeee> could anyone tell me how to get kfmclient
[13:26] <ikonia> rookeeeeeeeee is it in the repo's
[13:27] <gnutron> rookeeeeeeeee: i don't see that in any repo's
[13:27] <rookeeeeeeeee> me neither
[13:27] <thiebaude> rookeeeeeeeee: check online :)
[13:28] <rookeeeeeeeee> i checked online there's nothing but crap telling me to download the konqueror package
[13:28] <ikonia> rookeeeeeeeee I was just about to say it's in the konqueror package
[13:28] <thiebaude> rookeeeeeeeee: did you enable all your repositories?
[13:29] <rookeeeeeeeee> yes thiebaude
[13:29] <thiebaude> kewl
[13:29] <gnutron> rookeeeeeeeee: it looks to be a very old KDE package, a buggy one at that.
[13:29] <Toznoshio> rookeeeeeeeee, kfmclient is the technical name for konqueror
[13:30] <gnutron> rookeeeeeeeee: konqueror is kinda cool, it does fish:
[13:30] <asfjio> rrecio: i tried two different mirrors and again the same problem. another thing that i see is "Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead." this message.
[13:30] <rookeeeeeeeee> well im trying to set up torK perhaps this is a bad idea
[13:31] <Toznoshio> asfjio, is it a non-Ubuntu repository that gives you the error?
[13:31] <rrecio> asfjio: the index files failed to download because the mirrors may be broken
[13:31] <Orbur> h
[13:32] <asfjio> Toznoshio: no, i don't think so. i get the mirrors from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors
[13:33] <gnutron> asfjio: the mirrors may be syncing with new updates also. wait awhile. albeit a nuisance.
[13:33] <Toznoshio> asfjio, pastebin the results of apt-get update
[13:35] <gnutron> asfjio: try a german mirror, they always seem the fastest, even from the USA
[13:37] <ardiem> how much space does ubuntu need
[13:37] <ardiem> ow big should a partition be?
[13:37] <gnutron> ardiem: A full install, maybe 4 gb.
[13:37] <ardiem> okay thank you :)
[13:38] <thiebaude> ardiem: and aslo how much room for ubuntu do you want
[13:38] <ardiem> and swap?
[13:39] <thiebaude> ardiem: i think swap is automatically set unless you decide to change the size of it
[13:39] <aar> Hi, I'm interested in researching Internet traffic volume (e.g. generating a graph with the most active .edu domains). What tools could I use for  this?
[13:39] <gnutron> ardiem: rule of thumb 1.5 times the physical system ram = swap
[13:39] <ardiem> thank you
[13:40] <asfjio> Toznoshio: http://pastebin.com/d652a4dce i replaced "http://" with "http_", because there was some problems with submiting it with http://
[13:41] <esenoy> hi! I'm looking for help wit rt61 module under intrepid, I cant unload the module.... any help?
[13:41] <Toznoshio> asfjio, bingo
[13:42] <Toznoshio> asfjio, Feisty s no longer supported
[13:42] <gaelfx> how do you force architecture in dpkg?
[13:42] <asfjio> Toznoshio: waht can i do?
[13:42] <gnutron> asfjio: atleast don't use http_mirror.beyondi.org
[13:43] <Toznoshio> asfjio, upgrade you Ubuntu or do a fresh install
[13:43] <gnutron> asfjio: comment it out in /etc/apt/sources.list
[13:44] <ardchoille> gaelfx: What are you trying to do?
[13:44] <esenoy> hi! I'm looking for help wit rt61 module under intrepid, I cant unload the module.... any help?
[13:44] <gaelfx> I'm trying to install a 32-bit deb package of QQ on 64-bit
[13:44] <asfjio> Toznoshio: do you think if i update the whole distro it could have major problems with all applications and the graphical environment (gnome)?
[13:44] <gnutron> asfjio: in sources.list insert a pound sign as such  #http_mirror.beyondi.org
[13:45] <mchelen1> how can i mount a drive encrypted with the installation option
[13:45] <asfjio> gnutron: to comment all mirrors?
[13:46] <gnutron> asfjio: you must upgrade distro incremenally, one at a time. yes comment out all http_mirror.beyondi.org entries
[13:46] <Toznoshio> asfjio, you never know for sure, things can and do go bad sometimes, that's why I suggest you do a backup
[13:46] <aar> Hi, I'm interested in researching Internet traffic volume (e.g. generating a graph with the most active .edu domains). What tools could I use for this?
[13:46] <jclbrt> so i just installed 8.10 to my macbook pro. How can I enable right click, it used to work in 8.08 but now it doesnt
[13:46] <gaelfx> nevermind, figured it out --force-architecture -i
[13:47] <asfjio> Toznoshio: to backup what exactly? my home dir?
[13:47] <Toznoshio> aar, use iftop
[13:47] <jclbrt> i use to be able to put two fingers on the pad and click for right click
[13:47] <davmonster> aar: google 'netcraft'
[13:47] <esenoy> AAR: try wireshark
[13:48] <aar> Toznoshio, davmonster, esenoy : Thanks
[13:48] <Toznoshio> asfjio, I would back up my home directory, do a fresh install, then selectively restore stuff I need, but that's me
[13:49] <asfjio> gnutron: when i comment all mirrors and then make apt-get update nothing happened
[13:49] <quizme> hi, does anybody use ec2 here ?
[13:50] <esenoy> I can't unload a module from the kernel... Console says: "ERROR: Module rt61 is in use"
[13:50] <asfjio> Toznoshio: ok, where can i read about how can i upgrade the whole distro, because i don't know how? i will try to upgrade instead of fresh install.
[13:50] <esenoy> but I placed the module in the blacklist!
[13:51] <esenoy> I can't unload a module from the kernel... Console says: "ERROR: Module rt61 is in use" but I placed the module in the blacklist!
[13:52] <gnutron> asfjio: you need to add a legitimate update mirror besides security. your using feisty right?
[13:52] <thiebaude> asfjio:which version of ubuntu are you using?
[13:52] <asfjio> gnutron: yes
[13:52] <Toznoshio> asfjio, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades
[13:53] <kebomix> Free Programming e-books With Direct Links & Request ebooks Here : http://request-ebooks.blogspot.com/
[13:54] <gnutron> asfjio: one sec, since its reached end  of life may not be easy
[13:54] <asfjio> Toznoshio: so Gutsy is the last code name of ubuntu, right? i will try to upgrade.
[13:54] <jtravnick> how do I get both ubuntu and windows to show the right time?
[13:55] <Toznoshio> asfjio, no Gutsy immediately follows Fiesty
[13:55] <skylarS> what is our dreamweaver equivalent?
[13:55] <Toznoshio> asfjio, the most recent one is Intrepid Ibex
[13:55] <zaky> gvfg
[13:55] <Toznoshio> !intrepid | asfjio
[13:55] <gnutron> asfjio: deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty main restricted universe multiverse

[13:56] <gnutron> asfjio: insert that line
[13:56] <zaky> ij78y65dzq2r68hvedszsevb;l
[13:56] <quizme> i just installed ubuntu, what's the first thing i should do to get things to work properly ?
[13:56] <zaky> ]b['/lkhblingybikolokngb
[13:56] <asfjio> Toznoshio: so i need to pass through Gustsy to reach the recent
[13:56] <Scix> is this the right channel for pxelinux questions?
[13:56] <Toznoshio> asfjio, yes
[13:56] <gnutron> asfjio: then apt-get update and see what happens, then apt-get upgrade

[13:57] <jclbrt> what is HAL
[13:57] <jclbrt> ?
[13:57] <gnutron> jclbrt: hardware abstraction layer
[13:57] <Scix> is there a way to boot a CD ISO from a PXELinux boot menu?
[13:57] <jclbrt> oh
[13:57] <jclbrt> ok
[13:58] <jclbrt> i jst created a new fdi policy in /etc/hal/fdi/policy
[13:58] <jclbrt> how do i restart hal
[13:58] <esenoy> skylarS: try kompozer
[13:58] <jclbrt> without rebooting my computer
[13:58] <asfjio> Toznoshio, gnutron and ALL other thank you for the patient and the help. i will tell you if i succeed
[13:58] <gnutron> asfjio: if the feisty upgrade works, then dist-upgrade to the next distro and so on.
[13:58] <jclbrt> would sudo /etc/init.d/hal restart work?
[14:00] <gnutron> jclbrt: it might, normally hal does its deeds on bootup
[14:00] <jclbrt> ah ok
[14:00] <jclbrt> brb then... i was hoping to not have to boot the machine
[14:00] <jclbrt> it's a touchpad tweak i did
[14:01] <gnutron> jclbrt: that could do it
[14:01] <jclbrt> so maybe i need to reboot x too
[14:01] <gnutron> jclbrt: i would
[14:01] <J_HaMpSta> so!, im connecting remotely via VNC to my ubuntu server, but when i move/open windows within either the VNC srver or localy, they do not syncronize, im thinking because they are under different x windows, is this normal ? is my belief correct, please be kind enough to answer.
[14:02] <devlogic> I'm getting 404s on multiple canonical feisty repos this morning.  Have I missed an outage or security announcement somewhere?
[14:02] <gnutron> J_HaMpSta: thats probably a logical assumption
[14:03] <daxroc> Hello
[14:03] <jclbrt> yay it worked gnutron just by restarting x
[14:03] <jtravnick> how do i get ubuntu and windows xp to show the correct time? if i fix it in one than the time is off in the other
[14:03] <jclbrt> i didnt have to do a whole cold reboot
[14:03] <gnutron> jclbrt: excellent
[14:03] <jclbrt> just sudo /etc/init.d/hal restart then ctrl+alt+delete
[14:04] <gnutron> devlogic: we just talked about feisty, its reached end of life, try this repo- deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty main restricted universe multiverse
[14:05] <devlogic> thanks muchly; I must've just missed the convo.  Time to schedule an overnight maintenance for the upgrade, I guess :(
[14:06] <gnutron> jclbrt: restarting x is common, re-booting is usually not required exeption- kernel updates
[14:06] <daxroc> After upgrading to 8.10  my sound worked fine for a while , now it seems to have switched to pulse (why) all I get when pulse is selected is some low clicking noises, from alsa hda_intel the same , I have to switch to oss to get sound which works fine for the most part. But any audio thats produced by flash is routed too pulse, can this be changed ?
[14:06] <gnutron> jclbrt: excuse the typo
[14:09] <gnutron> daxroc: seems that 8.10 has produced alot of sound issues.
[14:10] <tarelerulz> I reinstalled my system and the res every use the close source nvidia driver is 640 x 480.  What do I do
[14:10] <daxroc> gnutron: I cant understand why it would work fine then during playback it switches to pulse, very weird
[14:11] <miik> tarelerulz, maybe need edit xorg.conf and add hz for monitor
[14:11] <hipitihop> is there a way to completely reconfigure/detect sound hardware and related configurations ?
[14:11] <gnutron> tarelerulz: if i recall, there is a nvidia-settings command available in the terminal, try ubuntu search on that
[14:11] <Toznoshio> hipitihop, asoundconf
[14:11] <slayton> is it possible to generate a graphical or text representation of a folder and all its sub dirs?
[14:11] <Ian_Corne> system->admin->Nvidia X settings
[14:12] <hipitihop> Toznoshio: does that redetect evrything like a liveCD does (guessing it is HAL)
[14:12] <daxroc> gnutron: man nvidia-settings
[14:12] <Toznoshio> slayton, yes, run the find command with no arguments
[14:13] <gnutron> slayton: the 'tree' command in a terminal will do it
[14:14] <anouar> hi everybody
[14:14] <fermio91> hi... how can i format an usb device?
[14:15] <gnutron> hipitihop: system - preferences - sound is a good place to start from..
[14:15] <anouar> how can i make the NTFS partitions mounted auto when Ubuntu starts ?
[14:15] <slayton> Toznoshio, gnutron thanks
[14:16] <gnutron> !ntfs
[14:16] <gnutron> anouar: yes that can be done, install ntfs-3g i think
[14:16] <hipitihop> gnutron: I have had no problem with sound on this machine since Ubuntu 6.x sometime during 8.04 it stopped. I tested recently with a 7.4 live cd and it was fine. have now upgraded to 8.10 and still no sound
[14:17] <afancy> Hi, I met a problem on my Ubuntu. In any applications, such as konsole, sometimes, it cannot accept my keyboard input. it is just like dead. But a moment, it can accept the input again. What is the problem?
[14:17] <gnutron> hipitihop: i lost count of how many people encountered problems with sound on 8.10
[14:17] <anouar> i have installed ntfs-3, every thing work well, but every time when i start my laptop, i have to mount manualy
[14:18] <hipitihop> gnutron: my problems started with 8.04
[14:18] <afancy> Hi, I met a problem on my Ubuntu. In any applications, such as konsole, sometimes, it cannot accept my keyboard input. it is just like dead. But a moment, it can accept the input again. What is the problem?
[14:18] <gnutron> hipitihop: choose the proper device first, then try alsa as output
[14:19] <hipitihop> gnutron: in regards to "chose proper device" is that via asoundconf ?
[14:20] <gnutron> afancy: type 'top' in  terminal, see if the machine is very busy with something possibly
[14:20] <fermio91> anybody know how to format a pendrive?
[14:20] <ty_> hello
[14:20] <gnutron> afancy: 'q' to quit
[14:20] <ty_> yes
[14:20] <ty_> fermio91: use gparted and just format it to fat32
[14:21] <gnutron> hipitihop: right click on your volume icon, choose preferences i think then a dropdown box may have options
[14:21] <fermio91> thk, i try
[14:21] <kane77> what tool should I use to batch find and replace text in files?
[14:22] <scunizi> kane77, at terminal?
[14:22] <gnutron> kane77: a streaming editor like 'sed'
[14:22] <fermio91> ty_: and after i've installed it?
[14:22] <scunizi> kane77, cat, grep, sed, awk
[14:22] <afancy> gnutron: no, it is not busy
[14:23] <kane77> scunizi, gnutron any chance for gui tool? :P
[14:23] <gnutron> afancy: try restarting x-windows
[14:23] <scunizi> afancy, is this with a new install or upgrade?
[14:23] <afancy> scunizi: it is new install
[14:24] <afancy> scunizi: it is Ubuntu 8.10, i installed yesterday
[14:24] <Ximal> if i uninstall tor will it be safe to do so ?
[14:24] <scunizi> afancy, restarting xwindows will not fix this.. most likely it has to do with your video card.. what kind of card do you have, nvidia, ati, intel...?
[14:24] <hipitihop> gnutron: don't mean to be a pain, and I  understand you are probably tired of the same old same old.. how do I know what the right device is ?
[14:24] <victormanuel> hola
[14:24] <victormanuel> quien me ouede ayudar con servidor radius
[14:25] <gnutron> hipitihop: in my experience i try everything until it works.
[14:25] <Jack_Sparrow> !es > victormanuel
[14:25] <Aquahallic> Mornin' folks
[14:26] <TuxSympathiser> my laptop blew up after installing ubuntu!
[14:26] <Ximal> ouch TuxSympathiser... what happened ?
[14:26] <jiang> hello everyome...
[14:26] <gnutron> hipitihop: which devices do you show?
[14:26] <TuxSympathiser> ximal, it went nuclear
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> TuxSympathiser Thw two can hardly be related..
[14:26] <Aquahallic> installed 8.10 and it was running fine... now all of a sudden I can't resolve any DNS... can someone tell me where the command line network config is so I can set the ip,dns, and gateway manually through CLI
[14:26] <hipitihop> gnutron: for example my first one is 'Intel ICH5 (Alsa mixer) but a second list show options like 'Master, PCM...'
[14:26] <scunizi> afancy, ?? what kind of video card? do you know?
[14:26] <Ximal> what kind of laptop ... how old ?
[14:27] <TuxSympathiser> ximal just over a year old
[14:27] <TuxSympathiser> ximal, could it be the killer ethernet bug reported the other month?
[14:27] <Ximal> ethernet bug ?
[14:27] <scunizi> that's been fixed
[14:27] <TuxSympathiser> ximal, yeah with e1000e
[14:27] <gnutron> hipitihop: use the intel, thats onboard sound chip, open controls and un-mute and set levels
[14:28] <Ximal> the only way it would blow up is if u didn't disconnect the battery and then unplug it to keep the prcessor from o/h
[14:28] <hipitihop> gnutron: second device 'Analog Devices AD1985 (OSS...)'
[14:28] <TuxSympathiser> scunizi, but ubuntu was freezing only with ethernet connected and when I unplugged the ac from the laptop
[14:28] <TuxSympathiser> scunzi, it didn't freeze though when connected by wireless??
[14:29] <TuxSympathiser> scunzi, so could that be why, the killer e1000e bug?
[14:29] <thief`> anyone know a good place to find ebooks on ubuntu?
[14:29] <TuxSympathiser> and now my lappy is a hole in my desk :-(
[14:29] <wjoyce> Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-security/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2  Hash Sum mismatch
[14:29] <wjoyce> Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead."
[14:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !ot > thief`
[14:29] <scunizi> TuxSympathiser, if it was the "killer ethernet" bug your wired nic wouldn't work at all.
[14:29] <gnutron> hipitihop: try both, i wish i could be more specific.
[14:29] <TuxSympathiser> scunzi, well it doesn't now LOL
[14:30] <wjoyce> my package manager returns this error: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-security/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2  Hash Sum mismatch
[14:30] <jtravnick> how do I take UTC off in 8.4?
[14:30] <wjoyce> what do i do
[14:30] <wjoyce> ?
[14:30] <Jack_Sparrow> wjoyce Try patience
[14:30] <hipitihop> gnutron: what are options in the second list, like 'Master, Master Mono, PCM' should these be selected also ?
[14:31] <TuxSympathiser> scunizi, did the e1000e bug kill the ethernet streight away or over a period of time due to usage?
[14:31] <scunizi> thief`, http://www.scribd.com/
[14:31] <wjoyce> i enabled the main server in Software Sources
[14:31] <Jack_Sparrow> wjoyce did you then apt-get update?
[14:31] <scunizi> TuxSympathiser, As I remember it dropped it like a stone
[14:31] <Jack_Sparrow> scunizi Please dont support his ot in here
[14:31] <esenoy> how can I remove a rebel module from the kernel? Console says that it is in use, but i've blacklisted it...
[14:31] <gnutron> hipitihop: yes, set those levels up high, especially master and pcm
[14:31] <wjoyce> Jack_Sparrow: no i didn't, shall I run that in terminal?
[14:32] <Jack_Sparrow> wjoyce yes
[14:32] <wjoyce> Jack_Sparrow: thank you
[14:32] <Jack_Sparrow> sudo apt-get update
[14:32] <TuxSympathiser> scunizi, so is it likely that the system lock ups are harmless to the hardware?
[14:32] <hipitihop> gnutron: I don't mean in the levels, but in the speaker icon preferences
[14:32] <wjoyce> ubuntu 8.10 is really impressive
[14:33] <TuxSympathiser> scunizi they only seem to happen when I unplug/ plug in ac during or before I receive a lot of data such as downloading a file would cause a lock up
[14:34] <scunizi> Jack_Sparrow, I haven't been on long enough to know if he's been abusing it.. I didn't see a problem asking about online ubuntu references like an ebook.  It was non specific and not a "what's the best, mostest etc"..
[14:34] <MatBoy> is it not possible to make softraid on the 8.10 cd anymore ?
[14:34] <scunizi> TuxSympathiser, could be.. I really don't know..
[14:34] <gnutron> hipitihop: when you right click, choose open controls, check the controls, if that doesnt work, change device and try controls again.
[14:34] <nelson_> hello
[14:34] <Jack_Sparrow> scunizi It was not for ubuntu ebooks...
[14:35] <gnutron> hipitihop: it takes toying with but it'll work eventually.
[14:35] <TuxSympathiser> scunizi, hmm ubuntu devs have a way ith breaking things that use to work perfectly in previous versions!
[14:35] <Jack_Sparrow> TuxSympathiser please keep your comments to yourself
[14:35] <nelson_> where are you from?
[14:35] <wjoyce> Jack_Sparrow: terminal returned this "W: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-security/universe/binary-i386/Packages.bz2  Hash Sum mismatch"
[14:36] <scunizi> Jack_Sparrow, Here's the direct quote from above.. the one I answered "anyone know a good place to find ebooks on ubuntu?"  I read that as about ebooks for ubuntu
[14:36] <TuxSympathiser> Jack_Sparrow, they're linux devs not MS devs
[14:37] <TuxSympathiser> Jack_Sparrow, there is no plause in the EULA saying you are not about to bitch about ubuntu devs :-)
[14:37] <Jack_Sparrow> TuxSympathiser this is the support room..  for ubuntu...
[14:37] <hipitihop> gnutron: awesome you are a champion. One of the setting using the Intel device had option 'Exchange Front/Surrond' ticked.. turned it off and I have sound. Although I have loud buzzing/ringing
[14:37] <iSchadow> would anyone like to help me with my synaptics touchpad on ibex? it works now but the scrolling area is too small and I often miss it
[14:37] <Jack_Sparrow> !touchpad
[14:37] <NuKKleZ> best dvd ripper?
[14:38] <wjoyce> anyway what is this error all about?
[14:38] <gnutron> hipitihop: try muting your mic or auxilary
[14:39] <iSchadow> ubottu: sorry, read it through and
[14:39] <iSchadow> dam enter button
[14:39] <nelson_> hi
[14:40] <iSchadow> ubottu: I already did the whole guide through to configure my touchpad, but I saw the "xinput"... does it do the same as gsynaptics? Would it be wise/unwise to install both at once?
[14:40] <iSchadow> oh..
[14:40] <mobodo> http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/devel/yasm <-- says yasm 0.7.1 is in universe - is there something I need to do to have it listed in my available packages?  Right now I only see 0.7.0
[14:40] <nelson_> who chat with me ?
[14:41] <hipitihop> gnutron: yip that helps but not totally gone. as you say, have to play around. I now know enough to be dangerous. thanks
[14:41] <Jack_Sparrow> !ot > nelson_
[14:41] <gnutron> hipitihop: good luck, i know its frustrating
[14:41] <Jack_Sparrow> mobodo the latest releases will not be in the repos
[14:41] <scunizi> !ask | nelson_
[14:41] <gnutron> the experts are awake, i'm out to lunch.
[14:41] <mobodo> Jack_Sparrow:  why not?
[14:42] <Ximal> is there any way to skin the panels at top and bottom ...  such as add text to it or something without making it into a wanda type frame ?
[14:42] <NuKKleZ> any suggestions on what the best dvd ripper is?
[14:42] <Jack_Sparrow> mobodo # If you want the latest release, then you need to compile it yourself or see if a deb for Ubuntu is available.  It will not show up in the repos..   Only critical bug fixes are applied to the current released versions
[14:42] <jrib> NuKKleZ: I use dvdbackup, but see ubottu
[14:42] <jrib> !dvd > NuKKleZ
[14:42] <mobodo> Jack_Sparrow: ohh! alright then
[14:43] <NuKKleZ> thx jrib
[14:43] <Jack_Sparrow> mobodo there are exceptions
[14:43] <tdrusk> Hey guys. In debian I had a package called something like python3-cli. Does ubuntu have this?
[14:43] <slayton> tdrusk, when did it get included in the debian repos?
[14:43] <tdrusk> lenny
[14:44] <tdrusk> slayton: lenny
[14:44] <slayton> tdrusk, its not in the hardy repos, but all packages in debian will automatically be ported to ubuntu
[14:44] <gnutron> hipitihop: do try to use alsa not oss in sound / preferences
[14:44] <iDevil> is it safe to run 3dsmax via ubuntu using wine?
[14:44] <jrib> tdrusk: what does it do?  There are python 3 packages in intrepid's universe though
[14:44] <jrib> iDevil: "safe"?
[14:44] <iDevil> err letme rephrase.. will it run properly?
[14:44] <jrib> !appdb | iDevil
[14:45] <scunizi> iDevil, what is that package .. ?? there might be an ubuntu/linux alternative..
[14:45] <iDevil> 3d studio max
[14:45] <jrib> iDevil: yes, try blender
[14:45] <tdrusk> jrib: it allows me to run a php program in the commandline. I am trying to make a package for a program and I really just need to know the minimal python package to use for my task
[14:45] <iDevil> blender?
