[14:53] <Shappie__> jrib: Googles also gives me nothing... But i found this pretty weird coz i never had this errors when i installed ubuntu a few months ago...
[14:53] <zikiti> sorry, wrong channel
[14:54] <zamba> jacob___: isn't it more like bundled as a non-free package?
[14:54] <jacob___> Yes, it is.
[14:54] <Shappie__> On ubuntu 8.10 i had no problems with it and now on kubuntu 9.04 it just wont work...
[14:54] <jacob___> SiDi: Could you please be more specific about the name of the "OSS Skype"? Searching google isn't very helpful.
[14:54] <zamba> is xen still the "best" virtualization engine for linux?
[14:55] <zamba> there hasn't arrived some other alternatives?
[14:55] <SiDi> zamba: jacob___ there is an oss version in medibuntu. i wont provide detailed information because i dont want to help people use a proprietary piece of software that steals personal data without their agreement
[14:55] <gordonjcp> SiDi: "steals personal data without their agreement"? [citation needed]...
[14:56] <frostburn> zamba, i use virtualbox very well developed
[14:56] <ziroday> gordonjcp: agreed
[14:56] <SiDi> gordonjcp: there's a guy of the french ubuntu community who wiresharked with only skype opened, and noticed it was sending TCP packets containing its firefox bookmarks to an unknown server
[14:56] <zamba> frostburn: but isn't vbox more for workstations?
[14:56] <zamba> frostburn: i need something more "server like" and robust
[14:56] <jacob___> SiDi: Wait, are you saying that the _OSS_ version "steals personal data"? Or that the official version of Skype does that? Because now I am asking you not for info about the official version of Skype, but rather, the OSS one.
[14:56] <frostburn> zamba, nope, they opensourced their hypervisor too
[14:56] <zamba> frostburn: kind of like vmware esx
[14:56] <gordonjcp> SiDi: uhuh, sure
[14:56] <hbekel> Shappie__: google gives me<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:57] <SiDi> jacob___: the oss one is the official skype version with support for OSS instead of ALSA. check medibuntu's repository
[14:57] <SiDi> !medibuntu
[14:57] <gordonjcp> you shouldn't use OSS anyway, it's been obsolete for over a decade
[14:57] <jacob___> SiDi: Now I get it. It's just an OSS bundle of the official version.. thanks.
[14:57] <Lint01> is there TrueCrypt package in Ubuntu?
[14:58] <SiDi> gordonjcp: http://blog.philpep.org/post/2008/12/20/Skype-%3A-un-logiciel-qui-vous-veut-du-bien
[14:58] <zamba> frostburn: who? virtualbox?
[14:58] <a931bw> Hmm
[14:58] <a931bw> Who playd Runescape private server?
[14:58] <jacob___> How do I know which version of Ubuntu I have? (Dapper, Bopper, Hardy, ...)?
[14:59] <a931bw> is there way to launch client on linux?

[15:00] <Flynsarmy> When installing LAMP where does php binary file install to?
[15:00] <Flynsarmy> it's not in which php or which php5
[15:00] <jacob___> thiebaude: YEah, all those fidgety names sound like variants of gas passage and so on.
[15:01] <Pici> Flynsarmy: Are you looking to run php files from the cli?
[15:01] <SiDi> Flynsarmy: i might be wrong but i dont think there is such php binary. it's just an apache module
[15:01] <Flynsarmy> Pici, from the terminal (newbie)
[15:02] <Pici> Flynsarmy: you'll need the php5-cli package then, php installed with LAMP is only in apache module form iirc.
[15:02] <dreamy> is there a channel for musicans .. about linux and sound ?
[15:02] <minimec> dreamy: I guess #ubuntustudio
[15:02] <Flynsarmy> that won't break my LAMP install at all?
[15:02] <Pici> dreamy: #ubuntustudio or /msg alis help for searching channels.
[15:02] <SiDi> dreamy: try #ubuntustudio
[15:02] <dreamy> k ty
[15:02] <Pici> Flynsarmy: Nope, its safe.
[15:03] <lirvan> thanks guys
[15:03] <a931bw> How to launch Runescape client?
[15:04] <lirvan> i am able to connect to internet now
[15:04] <lirvan> but can you help me with installation
[15:04] <SiDi> lirvan: great :) feel free to ask any question if you need more help
[15:04] <gordonjcp> SiDi: proving what, exactly?
[15:05] <SiDi> a931bw: as i said. wine. http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=6382
[15:05] <gordonjcp> SiDi: do you know what stat64() does?
[15:05] <lirvan> i want to install ubuntu in volume  E to dual boot with windows.is that ok or does one have to install in volume C only.
[15:05] <jacob___> Hey, I tried installing skype-static-oss from medibuntu, but the package installer says "Error: dependency is not satisfiable: skype-common". What does this mean? should I somehow try to procure a package called skype-common?
[15:06] <Shappie__> hbekel: I can try your link but i dont know how to set that value... I cant find the path they call there...
[15:06] <gordonjcp> jacob___: just install the .deb from Skype's site
[15:06] <SiDi> gordonjcp: it writes a file to a buffer afaik
[15:06] <bigboy> anybody knows how to edit fstab file
[15:06] <maximo> !skype
[15:06] <Shappie__> hbekel: So i cant find the file where i have to edit that value
[15:06] <gordonjcp> SiDi: no
[15:06] <jacob___> gordonjcp: I tried, but the sound doesn't work. SiDi here suggested it's due to Skype not supporting pulseaudio.
[15:07] <gordonjcp> SiDi: it gets some information about the file (typically size and permissions)
[15:07] <SiDi> lirvan: actually volumes are not named by letters in Linux/UNIX
[15:07] <gordonjcp> jacob___: yes, pulseaudio is a total abortion
[15:07] <SiDi> gordonjcp: and why would they need information about this ? what's the point of it ?
[15:07] <jacob___> So why is it being used?
[15:07] <gordonjcp> jacob___: I have no idea
[15:07] <pepperjack> bigboy: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab     :)
[15:07] <hbekel> Shappie__: that's because those guys patch the xorg source and build it manually... I just googled that up, try at your own risk
[15:07] <SiDi> lirvan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[15:07] <jacob___> I miss OS X : - (
[15:07] <gordonjcp> jacob___: you can basically assume that Ubuntu does not support audio outside of one or two Ubuntu standard apps, at present
[15:08] <gordonjcp> hopefully in Jaunty they've got rid of the pulseaudio mess
[15:08] <lesshaste> is there way to search all packages in repositories for a file?
[15:08] <SiDi> gordonjcp: thats not true. Ubuntu supports any audio except some apps that dont use pulseaudio, ie. Adobe Flash (proprietary), Skype (proprietary), Wine (tho its meant to be coming)
[15:08] <lesshaste> to see which one provides it?
[15:08] <gordonjcp> SiDi: you can't entirely get rid of pulseaudio, though
[15:09] <SiDi> lesshaste: i think packages.ubuntu.com's search engine can get that
[15:09] <lirvan> so when i install ubuntu where exactly will it be installed on the hard drive
[15:09] <jua> gordonjcp,SiDi: i have pulseaudio and those three apps work flawlessly with sound
[15:09] <SiDi> gordonjcp: you can, its been overposted on the web. and what's the point of getting rid of it ? just use alsa if you don't like it :)
[15:09] <gordonjcp> SiDi: because pulseaudio will grab the alsa hardware any chance it gets, and not give it up
[15:09] <gart> hi
[15:10] <SiDi> gordonjcp: shut pulseaudio down then :) or remove it from your PC. i'm running alsa here.
[15:10] <gordonjcp> SiDi: and, since I don't want to use pulseaudio under any circumstances, there should be a clean way to remove it
[15:10] <lesshaste> SiDi: thanks but it seems animate.sty isn't in any of them??
[15:11] <SiDi> lesshaste: according to google its LaTeX related. if you install texlive-full you should have all you need (its a big package though)
[15:11] <Picassotamus> So, I ran out of hard drive space for my music, and added some soft links in the music directory to a new directory i setup on a different hard drive.... I have Amarok setup to only look at the original drive, but I see two copies of any song that is part of a linked directory.. is this because it is a soft link, can i use hard links for seperate hard drives?
[15:11] <SiDi> gordonjcp: you mean "sudo aptitude purge pulseaudio" ? :D
[15:11] <gordonjcp> SiDi: which then wants to clobber ubuntu-desktop ;-)
[15:11] <SiDi> gordonjcp: this is just a virtual package :) i removed it to get rid of pidgin
[15:11] <jua> Picassotamus: no, hard links are only for one fs
[15:12] <lesshaste> ok thanks
[15:12] <gordonjcp> SiDi: yeah, but then apt goes mental when you update...
[15:12] <Bodsda> are man pages stored as accessible text files? if so where do they reside?
[15:12] <tzanger> good morning; I'm in an environment with a super-strict proxy; where do I set the system-wide proxy settings so that I can do package updates and so forth?
[15:13] <Picassotamus> jua: Ok thanks.  I guess I'll get rid of the links and add the second hard drive to Amarok
[15:13] <jua> Bodsda: they're in /usr/share/man
[15:13] <SiDi> gordonjcp: well, thats true :) you have to remember about putting the package back and then removing pulse again, which is painful
[15:13] <jriachi> hello
[15:13] <Bodsda> jua: cool, cheers
[15:13] <jacob___> How do I change the default mail handler in Unbuntu so that when I click on mailto: links Gmail opens up?
[15:14] <SiDi> Bodsda: they're in /usr/share/man afaik, they're packed in .gz files
[15:14] <SiDi> jacob___: System -> preferences -> favourite applications
[15:14] <tzanger> nevermind, I am just blind
[15:14] <jacob___> But Gmail isn't an application...
[15:14] <jacob___> SiDi: By the way, this Skype thingie worked. Thanks a bunch.
[15:14] <jriachi> I am planning to buy a usb 3G modem, which ones are recommended for ubuntu?
[15:15] <jua> tzanger: system-preferences-system proxy

[15:15] <tzanger> jua: yeah, system/preferences/network proxy
[15:15] <jua> jriachi: i have a sony md300 it works ok
[15:16] <jacob___> Also, what is this rubbish about Rhythm Music Player? What happened to VLC?
[15:16] <jriachi> jua: did you had to mess with kernel modules or something?

[15:24] <bullgard4> '~$find / -name "mnt" 2>/dev/null' obtains 2 hits. What 'locate' command obtains these same 2 hits (but faster)? What is a 'base name' in 'man locate'? (This term is not defined in man locate.)

[15:24] <jua> there's also the sony md400
[15:25] <Dortje> how can i make my ubuntu go into standby (acpi S3) after pressing the power button?
[15:25] <corey> gordonjcp: My question is specifically directed towards a person with experience adminstrating a LAN in a business setting
[15:25] <MaxxTaDeeR> help me please) why when i put the rezolution 1024 after every restart are 800x600?
[15:25] <jua> it is much better (drooling)
[15:25] <SiDi> bullgard4: afair locate uses a database, to find answers
[15:25] <bullgard4> SiDi: Yes. And now please answer the question which I put.
[15:25] <alex1212> SiDi, bullgard4 , which you update via updatedb
[15:26] <SiDi> Dortje: check System ->preferences -> Power manager (not sure of the name, not on the english version)
[15:26] <ykphuah> if I want to install on a server which I do not want to perform system upgrade so often, should I choose server latest or server LTS?
[15:26] <Dortje> im running in terminal. no gui
[15:26] <bullgard4> alex1212: Yes. And now please answer the question which I put.
[15:26] <SiDi> alex1212: Oo
[15:26] <gordonjcp> corey: yes, but if you actually just ask the question then someone that knows the answer might tell you it
[15:26] <alex1212> bullgard4, locate /dev/null
[15:27] <SiDi> ykphuah: LTS then :) you won't have to upgrade before two years.
[15:27] <bullgard4> alex1212: Your answer is wrong.
[15:27] <jua> ykphuah: lts
[15:27] <alex1212> bullgard4, /dev/null is always /dev/null
[15:27] <MaxxTaDeeR> who can help me ?
[15:27] <alex1212> why are you trying to "search" for it?
[15:27] <alex1212> its not even a file discriptor
[15:27] <SiDi> !ask | MaxxTaDeeR
[15:28] <erUSUL> bullgard4: locate uses a database so it is faster than find that has to scan the filesystem
[15:28] <ykphuah> SiDi: jua: so basically LTS is the stable version with security fixes but not the new features, right?
[15:28] <corey> I need a program that will allow me to see what my coworkers(?) are doing on the wireless network as far as browsing and if they are DLing torrents
[15:28] <alex1212> bullgard4, your methodology is wrong, go read on man locate again
[15:28] <SiDi> ykphuah: its exactly that
[15:28] <erUSUL> bullgard4: basename is usally thename without the extension
[15:28] <gordonjcp> !patience | bullgard4
[15:28] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, do explain your problem, your version, what steps you take, etc.
[15:28] <jua> ykphuah: exactly
[15:29] <SiDi> ykphuah: it gets backports every six months but is designed to be stable and there is no experimental stuff in the LTS server releases. and it has official support for 3 years, too
[15:29] <bullgard4> gordonjcp: Please try to read. I have not been impatient.
[15:29] <JackWat|work> i hate that bot.
[15:29] <gordonjcp> bullgard4: you have been rather rude, though
[15:29] <jua> ykphuah: it works perfectly for almost everything i need on my network (ad compatibility, various services, load balancing, cluster administration), i'm on 8.04
[15:29] <ykphuah> SiDi: jua: and I can upgrade to the next LTS solely through the network instead of physical access?
[15:29] <JackWat|work> oh uh. somebody grab the tissues.
[15:29] <SiDi> corey: wireshark, then sort the packages. but you won't know if they download torrents since now bittorrent cant be differenciated from TCP
[15:30] <SiDi> ykphuah: what do you mean ?
[15:30] <arkanabar> Once upon a time, in the previous millenium, I had a panel applet with three bar graphs:  CPU, mem, and swap.  Does something like that live in the Ubuntu repos?
[15:30] <SiDi> ykphuah: the LTS is a "normal" version, you get it the same way you'ld get another. the latest LTS is 8.04
[15:30] <jua> ykphuah: assuming you have setup ssh or something like that, yes you can
[15:30] <JackWat|work> arkanabar: yes
[15:30] <ykphuah> SiDi: I used to use opensuse and hence installed it on my server as well, lately it have been EOL, and everyone seems to be recommending against upgrading through the network.
[15:31] <corey> SiDi: I have tried that but, it does not appear to be running in promiscuos mode. It works fantastic for spying on myself since I can see all of my IRC traffic in plain text
[15:31] <ykphuah> i have to go like 10.2->10.3->11.0->11.1
[15:31] <blip-> my Intel 4965 BGN wifi card works perfectly and so does suspend-to-ram and s-to-disk on ubuntu 8.04... neither work properly on 8.10.    Would trying a LiveCD of 9.04 give me an idea if the wifi would work ?  what about the suspend... or must I install for that ?
[15:31] <gordonjcp> corey: are you on a hub or a switch?
[15:31] <arkanabar> JackWat|work, what should I look for?
[15:31] <JackWat|work> i always upgrade through network :x heh
my version is ubuntu 8.10 i have an 3d accelerated nvidia driver when i installed it i put the resolution 1024x800 and every time when i start my pc there start with 800x600 and every time a had to change that in nvidia x server to 1024x800,
[15:31] <ykphuah> and the "recommended approach" is boot the new CD, needing physical access.
[15:31] <phoe6> I have Ubuntu 8.10 installed as dual boot using Wubi; The problem I am facing is the XServer does not come up if I choose Ubuntu normally; But if Go to Windows Login first and reboot to Ubuntu, the grafics is recognized and I get the xdm login. What could be the problem?
[15:31] <SiDi> ykphuah: most of the arch installs are done through the network afaik. it's just another way to install, its not risky if your network connection is stable
[15:31] <gordonjcp> arkanabar: yes, probably in the panel at the top
[15:31] <JackWat|work> arkanabar : i dont remmber the na me. gimmie a second
[15:32] <corey> gordonjcp: I have pondered many a second about what a wireless network counts as and I have decided that it is most like a hub
[15:32] <gordonjcp> corey: yeah, it is then
[15:32] <JackWat|work> i think irc is blocked at work. im vnced into my home machine atm. :/
[15:32] <jua> ykphuah: if the machine has network access or a proxy to the ubuntu repositories, you can install or upgrade via network
[15:32] <gordonjcp> corey: sorry, didn't spot that you were on wireless
[15:32] <arkanabar> gordonjcp, I have reconfigured to a single bottom panel, and the normal gnome-panel system monitor applet doesn't have 3 bar graphs, but a 2 or 3 color single graph w/ a 60s history.
[15:32] <corey> gordonjcp: NP
[15:33] <MaxxTaDeeR> how can i do to leave my own favorite config 1024x800 and do not play with configs....
[15:33] <gordonjcp> corey: what you can do depends on the chipset, a bit
[15:33] <corey> gordonjcp: I need to make my boss feel as though he is in controll without giving him any at all
[15:33] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, which driver are you using? the proprietary one? or the FOSS one?
[15:33] <mint3> lol corey
[15:33] <ykphuah> alright, thanks SiDi and jua, I will go ahead and try out the 8.04 and see if its lacking anything I need, if it is then I will be trying out 8.10/9.04
[15:33] <gordonjcp> corey: matrix screensaver ;-)
geforce 4 4200

[15:34] <bigboy> hey guys how do i make slave drive mount on start up please
[15:34] <mint3> im your boss, corey.
[15:34] <corey> gordonjcp: last time I gave him a small bit of admin powers I almost lost my job because he bricked the network somehow
[15:34] <SiDi> !fstab | bigboy
[15:34] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, please open: System>Administer>Hardware Drivers
[15:34] <gordonjcp> corey: I had a boss like that, insisted on having a key to the server room
[15:35] <corey> mint3: This is as good a time as any to tell you I borrowed your porsche without permission and sort broke it with a lightpole
[15:35] <gordonjcp> corey: for a while he insisted on having the only key to the server room, until our servers went down hard one day
[15:35] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, please tell me which driver is enabled in that window

[15:35] <gordonjcp> corey: after that, we got to keep a key in the office (he was hardly ever there, and a 50-mile drive away)
[15:35] <JackWat|work> arkanabar: check out the packavge screenlets
[15:36] <arkanabar> JackWat|work, thanks, I will.
[15:36] <corey> gordonjcp: give him a key to a server room just not a mission critical server
[15:36] <bigboy> sidi ya i went to fstab but still not
[15:36] <gordonjcp> corey: "No, I'm not coming down there to pick up any <rude gaelic word> key, you can come up here with it or you can give me 30 quid for petrol!"
NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version96) Recommended
[15:37] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, how did you set the resolution?
in NVIDIA x server settings
[15:38] <corey> gordonjcp: Since the chipset cant handle I want to get another internal wireless card for my laptop. There are two slots. Does newegg have internal laptop wifi cards?
 SYSTEM>Administration > NVIDIA x server settings
[15:39] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, please press Alt+F4 and type in nvidia-settings
[15:39] <swiftarrow> and press enter
[15:39] <hbekel> swiftarrow: you meant Alt+F2? hehe
[15:39] <JackWat> tada
[15:40] <JackWat|work> :D
[15:40] <swiftarrow> hbekel, ooerdslkgsk oops...
[15:40] <hbekel> swiftarrow: now you made him quit
[15:40] <swiftarrow> hbekel, I C..... LOL.  poor guy.  hope he'll be back soon...
[15:41] <swiftarrow> oh dear...
[15:41]  * swiftarrow thinks he should try things out first
[15:41] <JFo> JackWat|work, those screenlets are pretty cool
[15:41] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDDD, my apologies
[15:41] <JFo> kind of Mac-ish
[15:42] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDDD, the correct key combination is alt+F2. then type in nvidia-settings and tell me if it's the dialog that you used to set your resolution
[15:42] <kitche> swiftarrow: just lucky no op was around :)
[15:43] <swiftarrow> kitche, i'll say!  But I'll be more careful in the future...
[15:43] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, you there?
[15:43] <JackWat> What'd he do?
[15:43] <blip-> I need a randomized array of elephants
[15:44] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, sorry abt that.  Please use Alt+F2 (I tried it this time) and type in nvidia-settings and tell me if it is the same thing you used to set the resolution...
[15:45] <swiftarrow> JackWat, I told MaxxTaDeeR to hit alt+f4 ; it was an accident, really.
[15:45] <charles_> corey: just look for total number of connections and amount of bandwidth
[15:45] <gordonjcp> corey: no idea, look on newegg
-D i am here :-D
[15:45] <TheFunkbomb> Does anyone know how I can use custom cover art in Banshee?  Or correct the ones it got wrong?
[15:45] <JackWat> haha
joke(alt+f4)
[15:45] <rayo> what is the difference between a script executed by an acpi event or executed by root? i have a bluetooth start/stop script, if i execute it it works, if acpi executes the file it's not working.
Ggghhshahhh =DDDD
[15:46] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, accident.  so tell me... is it the same dialog?
[15:46] <hbekel> JackWat: let's hope they both learned something :)
[15:46] <blip-> ? 9.04
[15:46] <gordonjcp> swiftarrow: "honour your error as a hidden intention" ...
Yeap
[15:46] <Pici> !jaunty | blip-
[15:46] <blip-> ? jacky jaunty
[15:46] <blip-> ! jacky jaunty
[15:46] <blip-> ah.  thanks Pici
[15:46] <JackWat> haha
There is NVIDIA Server settings
[15:47] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, ok, now close it, hit alt+f2, and type 'gksu nvidia-settings' (without the brackets) then make your changes, then save it, and exit.
[15:47] <blip-> Pici, does the ubuntu release schedule apply to kubuntu as well ?    ubuntu will be out in 2 days
[15:47] <Pici> blip-: Generally, yes.
[15:47] <JackWat> this
[15:47] <JackWat> ehh yes
[15:48] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, I know it exists in the menu tree, but usually it doesn't get sudo powers when it opens from there.  you need permissions to write everything to the xorg configuration file, which is how it would be applied.  Atleast, I THINK this should work.
[15:48] <doggyslobber> Recommendations: I use Ubuntu for my everyday tasks.  All our files, documents etc are stored on a Windows machine on the network.  How do I sync the folder locally so I can use the files offline?
[15:48] <blip-> thanks Pici
 perhaps that because i cant save the '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[15:49] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, another possibility *may* be the sessions, but I don't use gnome, so can't help you there.
[15:49] <swiftarrow> MaxxTaDeeR, yea, now open it with gksu, and it should be able to save.
[15:49] <dassouki> any minimalist zero border small font themes that you knw about ?
[15:49] <maximo> question, what is the advantage of using KDI in place of Gnome?
[15:49] <maximo> thaanks
[15:49] <JackWat> KDE?
[15:49] <maximo> yes
[15:49] <JackWat> its just a different interface
Yeap )) i'ts work ))) THx
[15:49] <charles_> maximo: it's just a question of persional taste
[15:50] <charles_> maximo: both are good
[15:50] <maximo> charles_: but is it better
[15:50] <JackWat> kde4 is very clean looking
[15:50] <JackWat> maximo: better in what aspect?
[15:50] <hbekel> maximo: depends on your definition of "better"
[15:50] <charles_> maximo: you're asking for a personal opinion.  my personal opinion is that I like Gnome better
[15:50] <maximo> ok
You help me)))    thank you))) now i'll try that )))now i'll restart
[15:50] <JackWat> I like gnome better too, but kde4 is pretty snazzy looking
[15:50] <maximo> either one is good, correct?
[15:50] <JackWat> yes
[15:50] <maximo> okay
[15:51] <charles_> yes. you should try both and decide which one you like
[15:51] <maximo> thanks
[15:51] <JackWat> ubuntu uses gnome by default
[15:51] <maximo> have another question too....
[15:51] <maximo> and that is
[15:51] <blip-> Pici, one more thing please, is it possible to find a change list between kubuntu 8.04 and 8.10 ?   I don't mean the everything, but just the major packages and added features.  e.g.  major KDE update,  kernel update etc..
[15:51] <hbekel> maximo: kde gives you more configure options, gnome tends to hide a lot of things
[15:51] <JackWat> Only one question per person. sorry brah.
[15:51] <JackWat> heh
[15:51] <maximo> you see
[15:51] <rumpel> st
[15:51] <rumpel> mist
[15:51] <oshua86> hbekel, how can I switch back and forth between KDE and gnome?
[15:52] <JackWat> oshua86: when you logout there is an option to switch your session
[15:52] <maximo> which program do I use to see my girlfriend over in another country?     ex: cheese or ekiga?
[15:52] <maximo> thanks
[15:52] <pepperjack> maximo: kde is more customizable gnome arguably more user friendly and professional looking but honestly.. for a average user its just a matter of taste these days
[15:52] <ikonia> maximo: what ever works for you and her
[15:52] <rumpel> @maximo cheese is only local... i guess
[15:52] <rumpel> am i wrong?
[15:52] <MenZa> maximo→ ekiga
[15:52] <oshua86> hbekel, so i reality nothing will change of my programs and stuff right?
[15:53] <maximo> ikonia: is like hotmail and yahoo?
[15:53] <Pici> blip-: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/810
[15:53] <ikonia> maximo: no
[15:53] <maximo> MenZa: which should I use?
[15:53] <MenZa> maximo→ Ekiga.
[15:53] <maximo> ikonia: which one then?
[15:53] <hbekel> oshua86: gnome and kde can coexists w/o problems on the same machine
[15:53] <ikonia> maximo: which ever works for both you and her
[15:53] <maximo> Ikonia which one then?
[15:53] <hbekel> oshua86: i use both kde and gnome apps under openbox, for example
[15:53] <pepperjack> oshua86: many users use kde apps in gnome for instance k3b which is prob the best cd burning app
[15:54] <ikonia> maximo: try them - see which one works for you both
[15:54] <maximo> ikonia:  Can I use Messenger/
[15:54] <ikonia> maximo: I don't know - can you ?
[15:54] <lirvan> does one have to understand what "master boot record","partition table" are before installing ubuntu
[15:54] <kareem-34> wuz up people
[15:54] <oshua86> got it, ill give it a try always had gnome
[15:54] <juac> lirvan: it helps
[15:54] <maximo> ikonia: Ekiga   but picture too small...
[15:54] <ikonia> lirvan: not really no, the installer should be able to manage that fo ryou
[15:54] <ikonia> maximo: ok - then so not ekiga
[15:54] <pepperjack> lirvan: not if you just want to wipe the disk and install (default option)
[15:55] <maximo> ikonia: she needs to be in the same Ekiga, right?
[15:55] <maximo> thanks
[15:55] <ikonia> maximo: no - just a compatible client
[15:55] <JackWat> lirvan: what?
[15:55] <maximo> ikonia: okay
[15:55] <JackWat> are you trying to do
[15:56] <MenZa> maximo→ As long as she has an SIP client with webcam support, she should be fine.
[15:56] <lirvan> i dont want to wipe the disk. i want o dual boot windows and ubuntu.
[15:57] <a931bw> aww
[15:57] <maximo> MenZa: which one you use?
[15:57] <a931bw> i unpacked client
[15:57] <juac> livan: get the "desktop install" cd. when you boot from it the installer will help you to easily change windows partitions's size to make room for ubuntu
[15:57] <pepperjack> lirvan: then just let it resize the disk for you. any of the install options but 'manual' require very little real work on the user's part.  i think it may be a good idea to defrag maybe in windows first?  not sure about that though
[15:57] <maximo> that is reliable
[15:57] <a931bw> theres error

[16:00] <Nokio> Hi all i am trying to setup 2 ubuntu with ldap (so far no problem) then i want to configure the 2 ldap to replicate each other. I was following so far this doc https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer#LDAP%20replication but i dont have any slapd.conf file to add the replication information...
[16:01] <juac> Nokio: try #ubuntu-server
[16:01] <Nokio> ok thanks juac
[16:01] <Chymera> Hi, I have the following stuff in my /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-xinput-configuration.fdi //  http://pastebin.ca/1398288 but it still won't work to switch between keymaps via alt shift :(
[16:01] <Chymera> any ideas?
[16:02] <a931bw> Who can help with runescape game client +ubuntu?

[16:02] <a931bw> that client
[16:04] <lirvan> do i have to backup the masterbootrecord before i install ubuntu to dual boot with windows
[16:05] <epaphus> hi guys,  why is it that my java6 doesnt execute java applets how it should..? it gets frozen and wont perform... i tried it on several ubuntu machines.. same result...
[16:06] <cbaughtman> hey tj
[16:06] <cowbellemoo> lirvan: are you installing ubuntu first or windows first?  Installing windows first and then ubuntu will set up the bootloader with both
[16:06] <lirvan>  do i have to backup the masterbootrecord before i install ubuntu to dual boot with windows or should i just go ahead and hit the b "guided resize and use freed space" option
[16:07] <JackWat> lirvan: that'll work fine
[16:07] <ikonia> lirvan: go ahead, you can always repair if there is a problem
[16:07] <JackWat> ubuntu will let you booth from either operating system
[16:07] <JackWat> boot*
[16:07] <lirvan> ok
[16:07] <JackWat> Wernt you having issues connecting to your network with it?
[16:08] <lirvan> now it s ok
[16:08] <JackWat> ah. what was the issue?
[16:08] <JackWat> If you install via Wubi, it doesn't overwrite your MBR. If you're just giving ubuntu a try, you should try that out.
[16:08] <lirvan> it was a really stupid thing i didnt setup my connection. so thats why i couldnt connect .
[16:09] <JackWat> ah
[16:09] <lirvan> it was SiDi who pointed out the solution.
[16:09] <lirvan> really foolish of me
[16:09] <SiDi> lirvan: :) happens to everyone the first time
[16:10] <lirvan> ok bye for now

[17:00] <sipior> moxfalder: /var/cache/apt/archives, if i understand your question correctly.
[17:00] <moxfalder> leeguy92: but if i need ?
[17:00] <BlessJah> leeguy92: propably he wants to download them and burn at CD etc
[17:00] <slacker_nl> Pici: kk
[17:00] <Rods_Tiger> what I want is to just switch the computer on and it does all the starting up without my intervention. Having to go to it and type in the password into 'unlock keyring' is not what I want.
[17:00]  * leeguy92 will leave, as he is probably unqualified to give advice :p
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> slacker_nl: i'd ask in #kubuntu
[17:01] <moxfalder> sipior: no in there, when without apt-get !
[17:01] <BlessJah> moxfalder: propably u should visit download.ubuntu.com

[17:03] <BlessJah> once again: polish chars at tty (correct locales, flame at #ubuntu-pl, and no ideas)
[17:03] <antonio_> !list
[17:03] <Rods_Tiger> I'd like to be able to just switch the computer on and it finds its own way to a working situation, without my having to stand over it and type my password into 'unlock keyring' before it can continue and finish starting up.
[17:03] <sipior> BlessJah: your terminal font has the character set you want?
[17:04] <BlessJah> sipior: terminus, everywhere it is said yes
[17:04] <Rods_Tiger> 'Network manager applet' seems to be stopping it from completing the switch-on boot process until I type in my password each time.
[17:04] <BlessJah> sipior: but i cant see them, polish chars ąść are invisible (or just spaces)
[17:04] <rhythmsoup> Thanks BlessJah, and ActionParsnip :)
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> Rods_Tiger: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/34898

[17:05] <Rods_Tiger> aha - so it's a bug
[17:06] <ActionParsnip> Rods_Tiger: i just think its network manager sucking
[17:06] <ActionParsnip> Rods_Tiger: i tried to use it in jaunty and ended up getting no where fast, its plain garbage
[17:06] <ActionParsnip> imho
[17:06] <Rods_Tiger> what, the 'unlock keyring' thing?
[17:07] <sipior> BlessJah: have a look at /etc/default/console-setup

[17:07] <ActionParsnip> Rods_Tiger: no, the whole app itself

[17:09] <Thursap> sipior: which switch i should use with curl to do that? man page is too long :(
[17:09] <sipior> BlessJah: CODESET and FONTFACE are probably two good places to start.
[17:09] <ActionParsnip> Acedip: i'd ask in #kubuntu if thats what you are using now
[17:09] <sipior> Thursap: man page is too long? heh.
[17:10] <BlessJah> sipior: kk, give me second "fontface=fixed" and "codeset=Uni1"
[17:10] <BlessJah> sipior: utf-8 is Uni3 right?

[17:19] <ActionParsnip> Viper_Suicide: once you remove all partitions they will simply be blank canvasses, you will then need to configure the drives in your raid as you see fit

[17:22] <ActionParsnip> Viper_Suicide: you can then partition and set them up how you wish in the next system (or power off and remove to move to a new system)

[17:22] <axxc> is there a way to show/write arabic fonts on xchat ?
[17:22] <sequethin> sorry actually what it says is "please insert an USB stick"
[17:22] <ActionParsnip> sequethin: does the device show up in lsusb; sudo fdisk -l
[17:23] <sequethin> ActionParsnip: it's mounted on /media/disk
[17:23] <ActionParsnip> sequethin: if you are installing to it it needs unmounting. run: sudo umount /media/disk
[17:23] <ActionParsnip> sequethin: the mounted disk is "busy" so cannot be installed to, if its unmounted the installer will see i
[17:24] <sequethin> ActionParsnip: ok now it is unmounted. is it supposed to have a FS ?

[17:25] <ActionParsnip> sequethin: if you are installing from the live cd, it will be installed to as a raw device, when you installed linux to your internal drive you didnt mount the partitions did you

[17:47] <ActionParsnip> mogul218: you wil get that error if you try to mount to a mountpoint that doesnt exist if you think about it)
[17:47] <adaw4da> c++ is down then I ask here :)
[17:47] <adaw4da> in term of efficency, is it better to use static members with a lot of parameters or instance members with few parameters?
[17:47] <mogul218>  sudo mkdir /media/sda1
[17:47] <mogul218> oops
[17:49] <Viper_Suicide> ok...i should have highlight on now
[17:50] <mogul218> actionparsnip thank you very much
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> np bro
[17:50] <mogul218> seems to work i'm gonna reboot to make sure it mounts automatically
[17:50] <mogul218> brb
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> mogul218: you now understand mounting
[17:50] <mogul218> yes
[17:50] <mogul218> lol
[17:50] <Viper_Suicide> ActionParsnip, ive read about a dd command to wipe partitions to a fresh drive
[17:51] <jinxy> actionparsnip: it looks like it's a corrupt localstore.rdf file but I can't find the directory where it's stored
[17:51] <killuminati> bye-bye all  hommies
[17:51] <ActionParsnip> jinxy: sudo find -name localstore.rdf
[17:51] <ActionParsnip> oops
[17:51] <ActionParsnip> sudo find / -name localstore.rdf
[17:52] <Mint`> !sudo
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> Viper_Suicide: you can use it to write zeros to the drive
[17:52] <linduxed> http://awesome.naquadah.org/wiki/index.php?title=Problems_with_Java  <--- the wmname method doesnt work very well, so i wanted to know if anyone here knows how to fix that AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit thing?
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> Viper_Suicide: but you will need to remove the partition markers afaik
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> Viper_Suicide: it'll be something like: sudo dd if=/dev/zer of=/dev/<disk name to blank here>
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> oopp
[17:53] <DrolGodur> hi
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> Viper_Suicide:  /dev/zero

[17:53] <sagredo> hi friends. I looked in /etc/init.d for gnome-do to remove executable privilages - but cannot find it. I need to remove gnome-do from startup - how?!
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> Viper_Suicide: i'd do it bit by bit, it'll take a while
[17:54] <Lasivian> what is "UXA"?
[17:54] <DrolGodur> some body have a guide on how i can start programming gui for ubuntu ?

[18:04] <smw1> hey there! I'm about to install Jaunty RC Desktop and I wish not to install packages like OO.org, games etc. Is this possible?
 I have an issue with the PTR record. from what I can tell it is all setup, but when I do a dig -x on a server accross the internet it does not have any ptr info, but it works on the local dns server.
[18:04] <JackWat> i think if you use the alternate CD it lets you choose packages
[18:05] <keithb> smw1: I don't think you can disable it on installation, but I think you can always remove it in synaptic afterwards.
[18:05] <carml> @ smwl In theory it's possible,just look for the appropriate command from the Livecd ;-)
[18:05] <daskreech> smw1: not with Desktop
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> daskreech: apt-cach search webkit
[18:05] <daskreech> Also can I sort by label in Evolution ?
[18:05] <keithb> How do I set up my Ubuntu 9.04 system so that it starts the vnc server on system startup (before any user logs in)?
[18:06] <smw1> alright thanks, I do not wish to download another CD (~700Mb) so I'll uninstall them afterwards then.

[18:07] <Schlep> Has there been anything for importing iTunes ratings, playcount, etc in Banshee since the plugin doesn't work anymore

[18:07] <enco> Hello, can anyone help me with setting up a mailserver? I installed postfix and it seems to work fine. i also installed dovecot, but it doesn't work, i can't login to pop3, cause it says something like "authentication failed" ... i have already changed the users password and tried again but still nothin. any idea?
[18:07] <keithb> ubottu: ActionParsnip: I don't know how to see a private message.  I'm using Opera Chat.
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> daskreech: not sure, figured apt-cache would find it
[18:08] <Pollywog> and encrypt-unwrap-passphrase does not appear to be a valid command
[18:08] <Lasivian> lx4svr: That's out of my league, sorry :/
[18:08] <daskreech> Everything ewbkit there is KDE/Qt releated

[18:08] <ActionParsnip> !jaunty | keithb
[18:09] <Pollywog> is there some way to reenter the passphrase correctly?
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> daskreech: maybe you should switch DE if its important to you
[18:10] <Speppa> hello!
[18:10] <Lasivian> why would the locate command not find something?
[18:11] <Lasivian> it's obviously there btw :)
[18:11] <daskreech> Lasivian: Not updated?
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> Lasivian: your db needs updating maybe?
[18:11] <daskreech> Also can I sort by label in Evolution ?
[18:11] <Eulchen_> perhaps you have to update-db
[18:11] <daskreech> sudo updatedb
[18:11] <branca> download
[18:11] <Lasivian> ok, I kind of thought that, but how do I update?
[18:11] <Lasivian> ahh, danke
[18:11] <kbrandt> Anynone have a link for creating a bootable thumb drive that will include install option, but will also boot into a persistant os (By this I mean, if I create a user, or change system files, they will be there after reboot) ?
[18:11] <konam> hi guys
[18:12] <grawity> kbrandt: In Ubuntu 8.10, there's a menu item (in System -> Administration, IIRC) that lets you do that.
[18:13] <konam> i downloaded a dvd and it was a folder with the video_ts and audio_ts folders... can i burn them like that and my dvd will recognize it or is there an app in ubuntu that i need to use first?
[18:13] <JackWat> konam: you sould be able to burn the video_ts folder and it will work
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> konam: k3b has options for those 2 containers, it can then burn it. try not to advertise that you commit breach of copyright
[18:14] <konam> JackWat ActionParsnip i ask because in some forums they talk about authorizing the dvd first even when I have those two folders
[18:14] <grawity> ActionParsnip: there _are_ movies that can be downloaded free... (I don't think this is the case though.)
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> its just a friendly warning
[18:15] <konam> is a legal dvd, CCed
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> :
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> :D
[18:16] <daskreech> Can I sort by label in Evolution ?
[18:16] <oskar> copying a dvd is not neccessarily against copyright, also not necessarily, if it is css "protected"
[18:16] <konam> so, then i don't need to authorize the dvd? even if this isn't the case, do you know a good dvd authoring tool in ubuntu?
[18:16] <grawity> oskar: might be offtopic, but I don't see any mentions of CSS?
[18:17] <oskar> konam:  didn't a video dvd have a special file system, not iso?
[18:17] <grawity> oskar: DVDs use UDF, and it's very common too.
[18:17] <theuser1>  which is faster and better. rdp vnc or rmi ?
[18:17] <JackWat> vnc
[18:17] <oskar> grawity:  yes
[18:17] <konam> oskar the file has the two folders one video_ts and the other is the audio_ts
[18:17] <MindVirus> Hi, I'm trying to set up PulseAudio with EQ like in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578 but I'm getting errors. Can someone please help?
[18:18] <grawity> theuser1: VNC. (But for Windows, I'd suggest RDP)
[18:18] <jinxy> actionparsnip: thank you once again for your excellent help
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> jinxy: np bro
[18:19] <grawity> oskar: also, I think DVDs use _only_ UDF -- so if you write a data DVD with the {AUDIO,VIDEO}_TS folders, it should work :/
[18:19] <willvarfar> truecrypt full disk encryption, with wubi, any news on if it's planned?
[18:19] <jua2> theuser1: i'm using the three right now, for me the fastest is rdp or x
[18:20] <tanzania1> my Tracker refuses to return index-searches - it worked b4 - any idea?
[18:20] <jua2> but vnc can be fast if you compress it and set it for low quality
[18:20] <theuser1> jua2: what do you think about rmi and which app do you use for that>?
[18:20] <jriachi> what would be the best command-line tool to merge/join 2 .mp3 files?
[18:21] <tommychurch> anyone know why sound would be jumpy  in wine
[18:21] <MindVirus> Any suggestions?
[18:21] <aktora> How can i start PHPMYadmin in ubuntu?
[18:21] <aktora> using lap
[18:21] <theuser1> jua2: ?
[18:22] <jua2> theuser1: java rmi?
[18:22] <theuser1> jua2: ya
[18:22] <JackWat> aktora: you access it through HTTP
[18:22] <jua2> dunno, i don't  code in java :)
[18:22] <aktora> what is standard url for it?
[18:22] <SiDi> aktora: you have a package to install, then http://localhost/phpmyadmin
[18:22] <aktora> I need to change field from 0 to 1 for mysq
[18:22] <JackWat> http://localhost/phpmyadmin
[18:23] <aktora> phpmyadmin is mysql?
[18:23] <JackWat> its an gui
[18:23] <SiDi> aktora: its a web interface for mysql
[18:23] <JackWat> for your db
[18:23] <aktora> ok - one problem. Where i upload the lamp etc. is on another computer
[18:23] <jriachi> (for the log, to join audio files I have found that i can use sox)
[18:23] <tommychurch> im running the 64 bit version of ubuntu  and trying to run cod 4 on wine  the games runs ok but  the sound is jumpyany ideads guy
[18:23] <aktora> is it possible to access from putty or something and start it from putty the phpmyadmin?
[18:24] <theuser1> jua2: what do you think about rmi and which app do you use for that>?
[18:24] <aktora> if so, what is code to start phpmyadmin from terminal
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> tommychurch: have you checked the appdb
[18:24] <van> someone already use ushare with xbox360? i have some trouble with it. My xbox360 cannot detect my ushare ubuntu. Someone help me out please
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> tommychurch: i'd ask in #winehq
[18:24] <tommychurch> that channels dead
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> van:  try sharing the folder with samba
[18:25] <jua2> theuser1: i'm not sure i understand, what do you want to use rmi for?
[18:25] <van> xbox360 can detect samba share??
[18:25] <JackWat> van: no
[18:25] <theuser1>  which is faster and better. rdp vnc or rmi ? Remote Method Invocation?
[18:25] <JackWat> van: look up twonkymedia on google
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> van: samba will make your system look like a windows box, so i'd imagine so
[18:25] <theuser1> jua2:  same as for rdp and vnc use
[18:25] <overridex> anyone know how to get back middle mouse button emulation when clicking left+right at the same time that disappeared when upgrading to jaunty?
[18:25] <theuser1> rmi is just a diff protocol
[18:25] <theuser1> same use
[18:26] <ActionParsnip> theuser1: none are "better"
[18:26] <aktora> Is it possible to start phpmyadmin from terminal?
[18:26] <JackWat> no
[18:26] <van> JackWat: is there any Windows media center server built for ubuntu?
[18:26] <JackWat> twonkymedia
[18:26] <theuser1> ActionParsnip:  which is faster?
[18:26] <aktora> you answere no to me jacekowski?
[18:26] <van> ok thanks i will take a look at it
[18:26] <ActionParsnip> theuser1: otherwise the other projects would be abandoned as inferior products, they all exist equally
[18:26] <jriachi> theuser1: and rmi is a programming protocol, unless you are a java programmer you don't need to know about rmi.
[18:26] <JackWat> van: twonkymedia. you get a free 30day trial. im ont sure about free ones
[18:26] <jua2> theuser1: i haven't used, i thought is was only an API. as for the others i prefer RDP, and when possible X
[18:26] <wrice> aktora: http://[target-machine-ip]/phpmyadmin
[18:26] <aktora> tn
[18:26] <grndslm> JackWat:  what kinda media center server are you looking for?
[18:27] <ActionParsnip> theuser1: i'd recommend x forwarding over ssh, or simply ssh. sh is significantly faster
[18:27] <zanberdo> question: how do I enforce a specific eth assignment for my nic?  I have several machines that are identical in all ways, except that for some reason the nic on a few are defined as eth2 or eth0 as opposed to eth1.  I'd like to ensure they all have the same eth assignment
[18:27] <grndslm> there's MythTV and Boxee
[18:27] <grndslm> JackWat: ^
[18:27] <jua2> vnc is the easiest, but its better for lans or other low latency / high bw connections
[18:27] <JackWat> i want to show media from desktop to my xbox.
[18:27] <JackWat> share*
[18:27] <theuser1> jriachi: ActionParsnip  iam askin in sence of spped of internet and its response. like at same speed vnc is slow and rdp is faster. what about rmi?
[18:27] <JackWat> i've been using twonkymedia but it expired.
[18:27] <van> JackWat: twonkymedia is commercial... tat sucks..
[18:27] <JackWat> yeah. ;/
[18:27] <aktora> tnx it worked wrice
[18:27] <JackWat> and the crack i downloaded doesn't work! :O
[18:27] <JackWat> hehe
[18:27] <grndslm> JackWat:  in that case, you'd only need to setup a file server
[18:27] <van> JackWat: what do you use to share videos from your pc to your xbox?
[18:28] <ActionParsnip> theuser1: if its over www i'd use rdp or ssh
[18:28] <van> xbox360*
[18:28] <grndslm> JackWat: and I'm guessing you use XBMC on your xbox
[18:28] <JackWat> grndslm: xbox doesn't view shared folders
[18:28] <grndslm> but XBMC does, right?
[18:28] <theuser1> jriachi: (jrdesktop)  uses rmi instead of rdp or vnc.                    do you have any thing to say ?
[18:28] <ActionParsnip> theuser1: why dont you just experiment, see what works for you, see what givees you what you need
[18:28] <JackWat> cool xmbc
[18:29] <theuser1> ActionParsnip:  ya sure. but asking technecaily
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> theuser1: then you will know EXACTLYhow suitable they are for you as you will have experienced them
[18:29] <keithb> ActionParsnip: Thanks for the info.  I verified that rc.local is being run on startup.  I put in the file: /usr/lib/vino/vino-server, and piped output to a file.  I got:(vino-server:2686): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:"  And, it's not running.  Any ideas?  Thanks, Keith
[18:29] <van> grndslm: you can use xbox360 to view ubuntu files?
[18:29] <GenjiPress> Hey folks - having a problem in both the 32- and 64-bit U 9.04 RCs
[18:29] <luciousjr> anyone have a link to the newest Ati 9.4 catalyst driver? I don't see it on their site?
[18:29] <theuser1> ActionParsnip:  iam not a good judge
[18:29] <dogmeat> how can i find what ubuntu release im running (after updates) ?
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> theuser1: ssh is secure and you can forward x apps over it, if you are just uploading files and remote controlling as far as updating etc then ssh is ideal as its light
[18:29] <GenjiPress> It's been noted by others -- i8042 keyboard doesn't come back after a suspend/resume -- but I've tried a couple of different suggested fixes and none of them have helped./
[18:30] <theuser1> hm]
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> theuser1: it depends what you are connecting to the other system for
[18:30] <irmandos> dogmeat try lsb_release
[18:30] <grndslm> van:  i'm not sure.  I just know XBMC is the only way you'd be able to view shared folders if Microsoft doesn't give you that functionality outta the box
[18:30] <GenjiPress> One was to set the kernel options for the i8042 driver to reload after a resume, but that didn't seem to do anything
[18:30] <GenjiPress> So I'm looking for other ideas.
[18:31] <JackWat> van: twonkymedia works very well. you can use it for 30days until you find something better :P
[18:31] <dogmeat> irmandos, thanks
[18:31] <ActionParsnip> theuser1: i think you ned to work that out first
[18:31] <van> JackWat: i prefer looking for something good right now than searching again :P lol
[18:31] <JackWat> ya
[18:31] <muaddib> hello all
[18:31] <theuser1> ActionParsnip: ok
[18:31] <muaddib> is there any real documentation on how to configure NetworkManager
[18:31] <JackWat> van: http://xbmc.org looks promising. thanks grndslm
[18:32] <phuzion> How can I install an ssh public key?
[18:32] <muaddib> I am trying to get my wireless interface working with my virtualbox image
[18:32] <ActionParsnip> muaddib: you need to enable a network device in the vbox
[18:33] <JackWat> virutalbox doesn't use wireless interfaces
[18:33] <aktora> One problem, when i try to start mysql from terminal by typing: /opt/lampp/bin/mysql -u root
[18:33] <aktora> slinux81@slinux81-desktop:/opt/lampp/htdocs$ /opt/lampp/bin/mysql -u
[18:33] <aktora> ./opt/lampp/bin/mysql: option '-u' requires an argument
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> muaddib: your dns needs to be set to <IP_ADDRESS> and your default gateway set o the internal IP of your wifi AP
[18:33] <grndslm> JackWat:  no prob.  i've seen it run before, and it's one of the most impressive media frontends yet.  Boxee (built offa XBMC) can also be used on an Ubuntu machine, plus Boxee integrates many flash sites like Hulu (this is off an on), MTV, etc. within the app
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> muaddib: the rest will sort itself
[18:33] <luciousjr> anyone have a link to the newest Ati 9.4 catalyst driver? I don't see it on their site?
[18:33] <iceroot> aktora: sudo /etc/init.d/mysql sart
[18:33] <aktora> i get error wiith argument
[18:34] <iceroot> aktora: install mysql correctly with apt-get and use /etc/init.d/
[18:34] <Travis-42> I have a hard drive that I use exclusively for storing media (e.g. purchased music, and pictures from my digital camera).  Is there an easy and secure way to share this with a windows PC on the same local network?
[18:34] <lastelement0> is there a way to reinstall GTK?
[18:34] <jriachi> theuser1: well they use rmi, but i guess they use their own protocol over rmi (over tcp, over ip, ober...). If in jrdesktop they use rmi to send full screenshots everytime the application would be very slow, if they send just the differences it could be fast. (saying they use RMI, is like saying they use http, it is the protocolo they use to transfere things, it all depends on how big/optimized th
[18:34] <jriachi> e transferred things are)
[18:35] <aktora> iceroot: i got know:  ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[18:35] <muaddib> is there any real documentation on how to configure NetworkManager
[18:35] <GenjiPress> any suggestions? I'm looking for some  other ideas right now but I'm seeing the same things I tried already (e.g., "i8042.reset" in menu.lst)
[18:35] <aktora> when i type password
[18:36] <chrisx`> hi, i installed the "advanced effects" , how can i get this cool cube for desktop switching
[18:36] <chrisx`> ?
[18:36] <iceroot> aktora: hm, i think mysql root is called "admin" not "root"
[18:36] <aktora> ahhh!
[18:36] <grawity> iceroot: nope, it's 'root'
[18:36] <iceroot> aktora: on debian its admin, doont know what it is in ubuntu
[18:36] <wakejagr> i'm trying to set up an ubuntu-server based livecd using the casper livecd info at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=688872 .  my livecd boots normally until starting the getty processes, which exit with status 1 and respawn repeatedly.  does anyone know where i need to look to troubleshoot this?
[18:36] <JackWat> my mysql un is root
[18:36] <grawity> iceroot: ooor... might be wrong though.
[18:36] <Gnea> !networkmanager | muaddib
[18:36] <Pollywog> aktora: after you installed MySQL did you set the root password?

[18:36] <JackWat> check it
[18:36] <aktora> you are very smart! Iceman_B!
[18:37] <lastelement0> Is there anyway that GTK can be reinstalled?
[18:37] <crdlb> lastelement0: what's wrong with it?
[18:38] <GenjiPress> folks, did anyone hear my earlier question?
[18:38] <Pollywog> lastelement0: is there a specific package that needs reistalling?
[18:38] <lastelement0> crdlb, Pollywog: it appears that my GTK is causing Pidgin to crash when i scroll through the buddy list.
[18:38] <n1gke> How to free more space on my hard drive to do distribution upgrade please ?
[18:38] <JackWat> making network cable blows
[18:39] <lastelement0> i've been in the Pidgin channel for a while with this issue
[18:39] <crdlb> lastelement0: how have you determined that gtk is to blame?
[18:39] <Pollywog> lastelement0: it might be a Pidgin problem
[18:39] <lastelement0> crdlb backtrace
[18:39] <crdlb> lastelement0: if you're already using the stock ubuntu gtk package, reinstalling it won't do anything
[18:39] <Pollywog> lastelement0: are you running Intrepid?
[18:40] <JackWat> !a
[18:40] <JackWat> !no_fancy_book_learnings
[18:40] <JackWat> ugh
[18:40] <JackWat> hehe
[18:40] <lastelement0> yes i am using intrepid
[18:40] <Pollywog> I had some weird bugs in one Pidgin version and getting the source from the Pidgin homepage and compiling from it fixed it
[18:41] <crdlb> lastelement0: what does    ldd $(command -v pidgin) | grep gtk-x11     say?
[18:41] <Pollywog> I do not recall for sure but I think it was the pidgin in Intrepid that gave me grief
[18:42] <lastelement0> crdlb: 	libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 (0xb7ae0000)
[18:44] <ether_c> Is anyone here running Ubuntu  8.10 with a relatively default compiz configuration AND compizconfigsettingsmanager installed? I can't remember what the default settings were.
[18:45] <crdlb> ether_c: you can reset it completely if that's what you're after
[18:45] <Pici> ether_c: Clicking on the little yellow broom icons next to each setting will set that preference to its default
[18:45] <ether_c> crdlb, Pici. I know, I'm running Jaunty but I don't like their defaults. I prefer the ones from 8.10
[18:45] <aktora> by going to http://[target-machine-ip]/phpmyadmin - i get error - and yes mysql is startet in terminal. but it stand check config.php | theire it: var $dbtype 	= 'mysql'; | var $host = 'localhost'; | var $user = ''; | var $password = '';
[18:46] <aktora> should i put the maskiname in localhost and user admin and password want i want?
[18:46] <ether_c> specifically, under "Desktop Wall" -> "Viewport Switching" -> sticky windows
[18:46] <ether_c> er.. make that "non-sliding windows"
[18:46] <crdlb> lastelement0: you can    sudo apt-get --reinstall install libgtk2.0-0    but I doubt it'll help
[18:47] <crdlb> ether_c: just erase it, and jaunty questions in #ubuntu+1 still, please :)
[18:47] <Ax-Ax> i don't like to forget sudo
[18:47] <ale_> is there a lightweight program for reading and writing .rtf files?
[18:47] <Ax-Ax> it's like the computer stares at me and yells "are you stupid?!"
[18:48] <Ax-Ax> like http://xkcd.com/149/
[18:48] <TheDracle> Hm, I'm trying to start up a new display using Xorg.
[18:48] <ether_c> crdlb, thanks.. but I guess I'm just going to go look on the 8.10 install cd

[18:48] <xnmrph> Hi. Anyone running Freenas virtually under Vbox/Ubuntu ?
[18:48] <TheDracle> I do this with: sudo Xorg :4.0, so it should start on display 4.0
[18:48] <JackWat> grndslm: xbmc is only for original xbox?
[18:48] <crdlb> ...

[18:49] <pasteeater> can anyone provide a sample .ogv video from Cheese (webcam)?
[18:49] <deeta> Hiya all, would this be the channel for jaunty issues too or is there an extra channel?
[18:49] <TheDracle> Is that I get messages that my client is being rejected.
[18:50] <glitsj16> deeta: there's #ubuntu+1 for jaunty
[18:50] <deeta> glitsj16: thanks :)
[18:50] <ale_> is there a lightweight program for reading and writing .rtf files?
[18:51] <vegombrei> i have a wierd problem ... installed a new hdd .. formatted it to ext3 .. at first it gave me trouble with permissions but with a lot of pains taking adjudtments to fstab i managed to get it to work .. worked fine for a few days until it decided to check the drive during boot .. thats when all hell broke loose .. pc took like forever to boot ..  pulled out the sata cable to the newly added drive and pc boots perfectly .. i need help figuring this out .
[18:51] <crdlb> ale_: try abiword
[18:51] <ale_> crdlb: some even lighter?
[18:51] <ale_> crdlb: something even lighter?
[18:51] <crdlb> ale_: I don't see how you could get any lighter
[18:52] <crdlb> ale_: without removing the rich text support :)
[18:52] <pasteeater> ale_: how about unrtf and catdoc
[18:52] <defrysk> ale_, try emacs
[18:52] <pasteeater> catdoc, A convertor for Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and RTF Files to text
[18:52] <ale_> crdlb: defrysk no thanks :)
[18:52] <pasteeater> unrtf, Command-line program which converts RTF documents to other formats.
[18:52] <ale_> pasteeater: I give it a try
[18:53] <pepperjack> vegombrei: there is a script in /etc/init.d that does the check disk.  you want to disable it temporarily by doing a chmod -x /etc/init.d/scriptname  sorry im not on ubuntu atm to tell you the script name.  so do that, plug the hd back in and reboot.  then try sudo umount /media/mountpoint and do a sudo fsck /dev/whataverdrive
[18:53] <{g}> ale_: and dont forget to try vim
[18:53] <pepperjack> vegombrei: the disk must be unmounted prior to running fsck
[18:55] <pepperjack> vegombrei: sudo fsck.ext3 i mean
[18:56] <vegombrei> pepperjack: could you take a look at my fstab please?
[18:56] <c0p3rn1c> I'm having trouble with fat32, my usb divx player doesn't recognize all directories and or files
[18:57] <ale_> ok let mi reformulate my question.. I'd like to have a program that I can use to create files so that when I open them with microfost word I don't see weird stuff (the layout should not be changed).. Now I tried with openoffice, and obviously I couldn't safetely save in microfost format.. So I thought I could do it with RTF files, which (I believe) work also with MS sofware.. Any idea?
[18:57] <pepperjack> vegombrei: if you can pastebin it sure
[18:57] <vegombrei> pepperjack: http://pastebin.com/d42408f70
[18:58] <vegombrei> pepperjack: the problematic drive is sdc1
[18:58] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: how is that ubuntu-related?
[18:58] <deeta> If the Xserver looses mouse and keyboard control, is there a way to reclaim the keyboard and switch to tty1 for manual troubleshooting?
[18:58] <pepperjack> ale_: rtf should work.  just remember that msword inserts all kinds of binary stuff not in the rtf spec so you will be able to open with word but if you try to open back up in your rtf editor it may look strange depending on the app
[18:58] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: well I figure, it's a filesystem problem and I'm using ubuntu to write files to my fat32 disk
[18:58] <Gnea> deeta: ssh
[18:59] <MikeH> Are there any issues with upgrading to Jaunty with an ATI card now? (I remember reading a short while back that there were no ATI drivers for the new X server version?)
[18:59] <ale_> pepperjack: so what do you suggest me? Should I stick on ooffice and save in rtf format?
[18:59] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: alright, and when the files are written, how do you disengage the usb disk from the system? do you just unplug it or do you issue an 'unmount' from the menu first?
[18:59] <pepperjack> ale_: ted is a nice little editor for linux that supports rtf it should work ok
[18:59] <ale_> thanks
[18:59] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: unmount first
[19:00] <SiDi> MikeH: you should ask in #ubuntu+1 ;) all i can say from what i heard on irc is that the free drivers seem to have improved a lot
[19:00] <wrice> c0p3rn1c: out of curiosity- how large are these files you're working with?
[19:01] <vegombrei> pepperjack: im thinking ill simply delete that last line in fstab .. plug in the hdd and reboot .. you think it'll force the check?
[19:01] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: that sounds correct. do you have another system to test it on?
[19:01] <c0p3rn1c> wrice: 700 mb, I know fat32 doesnt support files larger than 4 gb
[19:01] <vigo_> ale_: while this does not address your want precisely, it covers the basic of .txt or whatever format you wish to use, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1092322&highlight=cross+platform+documents
[19:01] <Gnea> actually....
[19:01] <pepperjack> vegombrei: that would work temporarily.  just # comment it out
[19:01] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: maybe it is a fat16 file system
[19:01] <adrian15> I have found an error that involves three packages. I have reported the bug in the three packages one or two months ago and I have not got an answer. Is there any mailing list for discussing bugs that affect several packages? Should I susbcribe to motu mailing list, perhaps? Is there any bug ubuntu irc channel? Thank you.
[19:01] <c0p3rn1c> instead of a fat32
[19:02] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: initially, fat{16|32} did not support more than 512megs
[19:02] <pepperjack> vegombrei: btw that script is /etc/init.d/checkroot.sh so you could also just sudo chmod -x /etc/init.d/checkroot.sh and reboot
[19:02] <Pici> adrian15: #ubuntu-bugs actually
[19:02] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: well most of it works, but some dirs don't get recognized
[19:02] <adrian15> Pici: Going there, thank you.
[19:02] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: okay, you might want to see if you can convert it to a real fat32, or maybe just split the files up and name them appropriately
[19:02] <vigo_> adrian15: look at launchpad?
[19:03] <SiDi> adrian15: you may want to contact the maintainers of the packages on launchpad, to tell them about the issue
[19:03] <vigo_> !bugs
[19:03] <adrian15> SiDi: I am going to try ubuntu-bugs right now
[19:03] <adrian15> SiDi: However I think that several package were auto-ported from Debian so I do not know
[19:04] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: I really don't see a pattern in what works and what doesn't, it's really strange, ofcource I have taken in account the lenght and special signs and so on
[19:04] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: although, I can't imagine any manufacturer that would be silly enough to produce a video-playback device using fat16
[19:05] <zanberdo> what is the name of the process/application that reports back information to canonical? sorry I can't be more specific.  It's a process you elect to enable during installation...
[19:05] <Pici> zanberdo: popcon?
[19:05] <vigo_> !popcorn
[19:05] <Pici> !popcon | zanberdo
[19:05] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: I'm using a external hdd mybook 500gb and I hook it up to my philips hometheathre system with usb support
[19:05] <zanberdo> thanks
[19:05] <vigo_> Dangit
[19:06] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: it's about how the filesystems have evolved over the years. fat16 was quick and painless, back in the day when a 200 megabyte hard drive was what 200TB is today, but fat16 was only designed to support up to 512meg partitions, since that was microsoft's marketing method to keep hardware manufacturers in check
[19:06] <SiDi> adrian15: then the packagers in ubuntu should be able to transfer to upstream
[19:07] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: so it's surely the fat32 filesystem on my mybook hdd
[19:07] <vegombrei> pepperjack: so i simply copy/paste sudo chmod -x /etc/init.d/checkroot.sh in terminal? is it important to re-enable this in future or can i just leave it like that?
[19:07] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: let's take a look...
[19:07] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: is there maybe a tool to make the filenames fat16 compatible, maybe that could help ?
[19:08] <pepperjack> vegombrei: its up to you.  that basically removes the 'x' executable bit from the script so it doesn run.  you can always chmod +x to add it back later.  wont break anything either way
[19:08] <tas> Hey guys, if I update to Jaunty from Intrepid Ibex, does it reinstall GRUB or anything? I ask because I finnaly got Ubuntu and Windows to work together without killing Windows' bootloader, so I wanna be sure I dont kill it again
[19:08] <lewench> I would like to know if the tutorial on this site http://www.thelinuxsociety.org.uk/content/kismet-gpsdrive-google-earth-howto-war-driving-guide is current with the Bluetooth integration with bluez, and gpsd. If I have Blueeman does that conflict with Bluez?
[19:08] <ailujana> i have a notebook with a gma x3100, and i dont know how to get the drivers...how can i get it?
[19:08] <spiel_mit_feuer> im having an ubuntu issue right now.. relating to my external display?
[19:09] <c0p3rn1c> ailujana: linux has most of it's drivers already "installed"

[19:09] <pepperjack> tas: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[19:09] <GunbladeIV> !ask | spiel_mit_feuer
[19:10] <tas> if it needs official managers to work right, like with a macbook, say, it asks you to use the official ones
[19:10] <pepperjack> ailujana: sorry that was for you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[19:10] <tas> Thanks, sargeant pepper
[19:10] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: I apologize, the limit was 2gb, not 512mb
[19:10] <gateway_> i've looked around on the net, and i dont have the optinos that other people just turned off in their BIOSes, and trying to install with noapic just causes it to hang
[19:10] <dekkong> Hello! does anyone know why it takes so long to download sun-java6-jre on ubuntu 9.04?
[19:10] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: ic
[19:10] <lewench> I would like to know if the tutorial on this site http://www.thelinuxsociety.org.uk/content/kismet-gpsdrive-google-earth-howto-war-driving-guide is current with the Bluetooth integration with bluez, and gpsd. If I have Blueeman does that conflict with Bluez?
[19:11] <Pici> dekkong : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Jaunty/9.04 support/discussion.
[19:11] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: but surely fat16 doesn't support a 500 GB partition right?
[19:11] <pepperjack> tas: heh.  i believe it will reinstall grub.  might cp /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/menu.lst-bak to be safe  i think there is also a commented out option in the menu.lst that prevents it from being updated
[19:11] <c0p3rn1c> ailujana: if there is some hardware drivers missing, you could check the forums or even google to get it working
[19:12] <Lasivian> what's the little program that will identify the numbers of your mouse buttons?
[19:12] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: certainly not! at the risk of pissing a few people off in here, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314463 explains the whole fat32 limitations
[19:12] <xnmrph> Hi, Anyone any good with setting up Samba shares?
[19:12] <muaddib> question all I am trying the new NetworkManager interfaces. It seems it doesn't use the standard /etc/network directory
[19:12] <muaddib> SO how are interfaces configured
[19:13] <deadlyallance033> why has ubuntu become the microsoft of linux
[19:13] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: I don't know where lies the problem, my philips home theatre system or ubuntu fat32 support
[19:14] <cousteau> why isn't ccsm installed by default?
[19:14] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: fat32 will support 500Gb just fine (it has an 8Tb limit), but does your home theatre support NTFS?
[19:14] <muaddib> deadlyalliance033: How so?
[19:14] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: sadly no
[19:14] <Pici> !ot | deadlyallance033
[19:15] <muaddib> question all I am trying the new NetworkManager interfaces. It seems it doesn't use the standard /etc/network directory
[19:15] <muaddib> SO how are interfaces configured
[19:15] <Pici> muaddib: New? Are you using Jaunty?
[19:15] <muaddib> what the configuration file that NetworkManager reads from
[19:15] <Lasivian> Gnea: mbr tops out at 2tb tho
[19:16] <spiel_mit_feuer> hey.. anyone care to help me with a display problem?
[19:16] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: perhaps the theatre has a limitation on the type of video codecs to play the files back
[19:16] <xnmrph> Hi. Anyone any good at setting up Samba shares? I want to share a particular directory for a limited set of users only. I want anyone wishing to get at the shared mount to supply one username and password to access it. Can anyone show me a guide or assist?
[19:16] <muaddib> Pici: I am running 8.10
[19:17] <GunbladeIV> spiel_mit_feuer, what problem do you have with your display? please state problem clearly
[19:17] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: meaning, that if the theatre doesn't support playback of certain files, it's not going to list them
[19:17] <Pici> muaddib: Nevermind then
[19:17] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: no it only shows files that are supported, if they are not supported I get empty directories, but at the moment there are alot of directories missing
[19:17] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: and I also noticed it had problems having to many subdirs
[19:17] <muaddib> what configuration file does NetworkManager reads from
[19:17] <spiel_mit_feuer> im not a netbook with an external display, however, when i try switching to the external display my max resolution is quite small, and only 4:3 ratios
[19:17] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: how do you prepare the files themselves before passing them onto the hdd?
[19:18] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: also, keep in mind, that FAT32 suffers from the 8.3 filename convention problem
[19:18] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: I don't need to, it pretty much plays everything
[19:18] <MrHanky> gude
[19:18] <Lasivian> how can I identify the buttons on my mouse?
[19:18] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: is there a tool to make sure that all dirs are 8.3?
[19:19] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: the dirs can only be 8, the .3 is for the extension, like this:  12345678/ and 12345678.exe
[19:20] <spiel_mit_feuer> well.. my question is how do i get the full 1440x900 resolution for my external display?
[19:20] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: the dirs *CAN* be longer, but the FS will truncate them for the OS
[19:20] <muaddib> what configuration file does NetworkManager reads from
[19:20] <muaddib> I am trying to find the file that controls my wlan0 device
[19:21] <calc> Gnea: eh? FAT32 supports LFN
[19:21] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: that's why win95 & win98 users always had that Progra~ directory listing instead of the whole "Program Files"
[19:21] <calc> Gnea: even FAT16 does as long as the OS supports LFN to begin with
[19:21] <rumpel> touch c:/program.exe
[19:21] <calc> Gnea: eg win95 with FAT16 did LFN
[19:21] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: I also noticed that I could use symbols like $&... on ntfs or fat32, this will surely give problems
[19:21] <Gnea> calc: the problem is in the way his theatre is interpretting the FS.
[19:21] <GunbladeIV> spiel_mit_feuer, for this problem, you might need to edit your xorg.conf file
[19:21] <xnmrph> Hi. Anyone any good at setting up Samba shares? I want to share a particular directory for a limited set of users only. I want anyone wishing to get at the shared mount to supply one username and password to access it. Can anyone show me a guide or assist?
[19:22] <calc> Gnea: oh
[19:22] <Gnea> calc: we don't know that this is the case, that's why I suggest making different 8-character directories
[19:22] <slim|> stop spamming and press enter key
[19:22] <GunbladeIV> spiel_mit_feuer, but make sure you do a backup before editting the xorg.conf file to be on the safe side
[19:22] <calc> Gnea: so its not reading the 8.3 version of the dirent?
[19:22] <c0p3rn1c> it's the Philips DVD home theatre-systeem HTS3164 HDMI 1080p btw
[19:22] <calc> Gnea: when using LFN there is also a 8.3 version in the dirent for each file/dir
[19:22] <Gnea> calc: we're not sure, but if he tries to rename them all so that they conform to that, and try it again, it would help troubleshoot the problem
[19:22] <Lasivian> what is the tool to identify my mouse buttons please? thank you :)
[19:23] <Raulin> Is there anyone here who's got a Promise FastTrack S150 SX4 Sata controller working under linux?
[19:23] <GunbladeIV> spiel_mit_feuer, what version of ubuntu do you use ? 8.10?
[19:23] <calc> Gnea: ok
[19:23] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: yeah, I would limit the directory names to using [A-Za-z0-9]
[19:24] <glitsj16> Lasivian: btnx does mouse button detection and enables the extra ones your mouse might support .. don't think it's in the reglar ubuntu repositories though, might need a websearch to check that
[19:24] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea:  for some reason it cant even read NewMovies/Defiance
[19:24] <rumpel> Defiance sux (srry, off-topic)
[19:24] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: yeah, NewMovies/ is 9 characters
[19:24] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: try NewMovie/
[19:24] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: that works
[19:24] <c0p3rn1c> strangly enough
[19:24] <Gnea> cool
[19:25] <muaddib> question all I am trying the new NetworkManager interfaces. It seems it doesn't use the standard /etc/network directory
[19:25] <muaddib> SO how are interfaces configured
[19:25] <c0p3rn1c> maybe I should try writing some dirs in windows
[19:25] <glitsj16> Lasivian: http://sudosys.be/?q=extra_mouse_buttons_ubuntu_hardy does offer some detailed info on how to configure btnx
[19:25] <c0p3rn1c> and see what happens
[19:25] <Gnea> !networkmanager | muaddib
[19:25] <jax> is wubi for 9.04 not working? i start up wubi and it tells me to restart and install alongside windows
[19:25] <calc> c0p3rn1c: it may be an issue of what mode it uses to translate the LFN to 8.3 form
[19:26] <nikor> Hi - Is there some other recommended apps to install that would make networking with Ubuntu & Windows more seamless or easier to work with ? ?
[19:26] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: that could work
[19:26] <xnmrph> Hi. Anyone any good at setting up Samba shares? I want to share a particular directory for a limited set of users only. I want anyone wishing to get at the shared mount to supply one username and password to access it. Can anyone show me a guide or assist?
[19:26] <Aurus> The spice must flow.
[19:26] <Lasivian> glitsj16: thanks
[19:26] <calc> c0p3rn1c: mount has different options you can play with to see if any of them make a difference
[19:26] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: also, what did you use to format the 500gb drive with?
[19:26] <Lasivian> yeah, that's more than I need.. I just don;t know what numbers gnome is giving to my mouse buttons
[19:27] <c0p3rn1c> calc: pff I also have problems sharing this disk trough samba btw
[19:27] <calc> c0p3rn1c: the mount option is "shortname=blah"
[19:27] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: it was preformatted
[19:27] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: so you just opened up the box and plugged it in?
[19:27] <nikor> What is good app to install for networking ?
[19:27] <bentglasstube> hello everyone, I am trying to upgrade to 8.10 using the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IntrepidUpgrades#Network%20Upgrade%20for%20Ubuntu%20Servers%20(Recommended) but it gives me "cannot allocate memory" errors
[19:27] <c0p3rn1c> calc: how do I change automount params ?
[19:27] <calc> c0p3rn1c: the default is "lower" changing to to "win95" might fix the issue for your home theater
[19:27] <calc> c0p3rn1c: not certain how to do that, sorry :(
[19:27] <bentglasstube> any idea how much memory that updater requires?
[19:28] <glitsj16> Lasivian: ow okay, my mistake .. don't know about gnome sorry
[19:28] <Spoony> Hi, this is a test.
[19:28] <calc> c0p3rn1c: actually i'm not certain if the shortname change from lower to win95 actually changes what it does on disk though
[19:29] <pepperjack> bentglasstube: typically when i update i just edit /etc/apt/sources.list and do a search and replace for the new version name then apt-get update then apt-get dist-upgrade.  be sure to only move up one version at a time though
[19:29] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: when I did some videos for a friend's xbox 360, some videos didn't playback, so I had to convert them all to a format that the 360 would understand before copying them over - used ffmpeg for that
[19:29] <pepperjack> bentglasstube: not necessarily the safest approach
[19:29]  * calc bbl
[19:29] <bentglasstube> pepperjack: yeah I was hoping to use this newfangled way but I guess it's back to dist-upgrade
[19:29] <xnmrph> Hi. Anyone any good at setting up Samba shares? I want to share a particular directory for a limited set of users only. I want anyone wishing to get at the shared mount to supply one username and password to access it. Can anyone show me a guide or assist?
[19:29] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: yeah but my hometheathre system plays olmost all formats
[19:29] <Gnea> calc: thanks for the help
[19:30] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: I understand that, I'm trying to think of possible solutions outside-the-box :)
[19:30] <Lasivian> glitsj16: np, thanks
[19:30] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: ok hehe
[19:30] <mackk431> hello is somebody familiar with the KSystemLog?
[19:31] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: I'm pretty sure thats not the problem here, it will also just skip the file if it's not supported
[19:31] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: but it does list some unsupported files
[19:31] <mackk431> i  have entrances in the kernel-protocoll what i dont understand
[19:31] <mackk431> protokoll
[19:32] <the> I need a vim question answered. Can I do it here?
[19:32] <rob__> does the migrate documents and settings copy my documents and everything or does it create links?
[19:32] <mackk431> for example this one
[19:32] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: I really hate going back to windows :(
[19:32] <mackk431> 2009-04-16 23:46:32	UDP	short packet: From <IP_ADDRESS>:51018 0/45 to <IP_ADDRESS>:6882
[19:32] <mackk431> what does it mean?
[19:32] <Gnea> c0p3rn1c: it's also possible that the original format on the hard drive was done weird... you can redo it, either using windows format or mkfs.vfat in Ubuntu (see: man mkfs.vfat  for fat32 formatting options)
[19:32] <djhash> will I be able to get support help for jaunty on ubuntu+1?
[19:33] <Gnea> djhash: yes, that's what the channel is currently for.
[19:33] <Pici> djhash yes: Please join #ubuntu+1 for Jaunty/9.04 support/discussion.
[19:33] <rob__> does the migrate documents and settings copy my documents and everything or does it create links? this is at install time, the migration from windows thing
[19:33] <Gnea> the: you might be better off asking in #vim
[19:33] <pepperjack> the: you can try sure.  there is a #vim channel though
[19:34] <jackjohnson> can you tell me how to change the background of XCHAT IRC to white from grey
[19:34] <Gnea> rob__: it actually copies the files
[19:34] <xnmrph> Hi. Anyone any good at setting up Samba shares? I want to share a particular directory for a limited set of users only. I want anyone wishing to get at the shared mount to supply one username and password to access it. Can anyone show me a guide or assist?

[19:39] <eibbor> neat
[19:40] <linny> Gnea: care to enligten me please
[19:40] <eibbor> well i reckon i should have a drink then make my rounds so people understand that i do work here :P
[19:40] <eibbor> ciao
[19:40] <Gnea> linny: sure, are you running windows right now?
[19:40] <linny> Gnea: no linux
[19:41] <Gnea> linny: so.. you... already have a linux shell that allows outgoing ssh connections?
[19:41] <jax> anyone... when i start wubi it tells me to reboot and install alongside windows. is it supposed to do that? in 8.10 it installs within windows.
[19:41] <Gnea> jax: yes, they are one-in-the-same

[19:42] <jax> Gnea: ok. so it wont mess with my partitions and such?
[19:42] <c0p3rn1c> Gnea: what was the tool to scan for errors again on fat32?
[19:42] <mackk431> i have messages like "2009-04-16 23:46:32	UDP	short packet: From xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxxx x/xx to xxx.xxx.xxx.xx:xxxx" in my kernellog from ksystemlog. what is that supposed to mean?
[19:42] <Gnea> jax: not at all. it just makes a file to use as the filesystem then mounts it at boottime
[19:42] <phower> wich fs is faster on ubuntu ? ext4 or xfs ?
[19:42] <linny> Gnea: yes but my isp is having routing issues to ovh in france (thats where my dedicated servers are) i can acsess them via http with my isps proxy but i cant sst i want a shell that i can shh to the ssh out of to administer my servers
[19:42] <hbekel> Lasivian: xev
[19:42] <xnmrph> mackk431, thanks - that sort of looks like what I want
[19:42] <Pici> Lasivian: you can run xev from a terminal and watch what the output is when you press different mouse buttons
[19:43] <jax> Gnea: ok. thanks a million! i've downloaded like 3 times, hoping to get a working wubi... guess that wasnt needed :D

[19:43] <lezem> hi all, I am having a little problem with the 9.04 installation. I chose resize one my partitions, but the dialog showing the progress seems to be in the background. Any way to bring it to the fg?
[19:43] <Lasivian> xev, perfect, thank you! :)
[19:43] <xnmrph> Gnea, I am currently asking the same question already in the samba irc channel. I've had about as much interest in there as a fly around a perfumed turd
[19:43] <Pici> Lasivian : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Jaunty/9.04 support/discussion.
[19:43] <Pici> Lasivian: sorry, lezem see above.
[19:43] <mackk431> is that some sort of attack?
[19:43] <pepperjack> phower: xfs probably but im not entirely sure i would want to use xfs for somethine other than say /tmp it can be more volitile
[19:44] <Lasivian> Pici: I'm already there! lol
[19:44] <Gnea> xnmrph: lol, they are a little slower on the uptake
[19:45] <Gnea> linny: are you sure it's only to port 22 that's being limited?
[19:45] <tomoyuki28jp> My ubuntu server hosts two domains, and I want to make one to listen a certain port. Which file should I edit to do that? Or is that a matter of DNS server?
[19:45] <nellmathew> hey guys, i have 2 partitions (both ext4) - i can't seem to log-in to one of my ubuntu partitions anymore, so i created a second to be able to access my data. how do i access the other encrypted home directory w/ this partition?
[19:46] <mackk431> it says "class -> Information" but what information do i get from ips i dont know?
[19:46] <linny> Gnea: yes its a known issue between the two providers i can ssh to the server from other isps (at friends houses)
[19:46] <Gnea> nellmathew: in 9.04?
[19:46] <nellmathew> gnea, yeah.. but i'm guessing it should be the same?
[19:46] <Gnea> linny: have you tried running sshd on another port on the server?
[19:47] <phower> pepperjack, thanks you... what fs you prefer for ubuntu?
[19:47] <Gnea> nellmathew: as? anything for 9.04, especially with ext4, is to be discussed in #ubuntu+1 for the next 2 days
[19:47] <linny> Gnea: i could if i could access it but tbh i dont think it would help
[19:47] <lezem> oops, sorry Pici
[19:47] <Gnea> linny: why not? just run a second instance on something like port 9000
[19:48] <the_fronny> If I cut with the mouse from a window on my machine (FreeBSD) and paste into a window holding a vi session on an ubuntu machine that vi session adds a hash and a long string of spaces to every line, things wrap insanely. How can I turn this off (in ubuntu?)?
[19:48] <Gnea> linny: that'd take the hassle out of finding another host to go through, and you could firewall it so only your IP could get into it
[19:48] <pepperjack> phower: tough question.  maybe ext4.  if i had a battery backup then xfs
[19:49] <Gnea> the_fronny: did you remember to :set paste in vim?
[19:49] <pepperjack> phower: ext4 will have more support in ubuntu. so it has that for troubleshooting problems and stuff
[19:49] <kaje> Apt tells me I need to update some packages. How can I (from the command line) read the details of the updates before I actually install them?

[19:52] <mackk431> did you give write rights? gizmo?
[19:52] <Genolo> i installed it like i did on windows, gnea
[19:53] <the_fronny> Gnea: No I didn't. It is just the defaults set by the package. I'll change the .vimrc now. thanks!

[19:56] <Gnea> el_-: I don't understand what the problem is... you don't have backups or you haven't ever done an upgrade before? the upgrade will not damage your data, if you do it right (and the instructions are very precise, so it's hard to do it wrong)
[19:56] <uh4> jest ktos kto ma kde 4?
[19:56] <Pici> Mo-Guns: Please control your language in this channel.
[19:56] <usser> gizmo_the_great: also might want to add writable =yes
[19:56] <Gnea> Mo-Guns: this is the official support channel for Ubuntu, do you have an Ubuntu-related question?
[19:57] <Mo-Guns> man im out pussys ass niggas
[19:57] <el_-> Gnea: It is a Server right... the last backup is three days old, I cannot boot into the box to rescue the data
[19:57] <gizmo_the_great> usser:  add writable =yes is the smb.conf file you mean? Or on the permissions? If permissions, for which user group?
[19:57] <usser> gizmo_the_great: heres what i use but that has authentication http://pastebin.com/f120aa6f
[19:57] <Gnea> el_-: I still don't see the problem. can you elaborate?
[19:58] <usser> gizmo_the_great: in the smb.conf in the share definition
[19:58] <el_-> Gnea: Ok its a bit complicated... still in the main
[19:58] <jackjohnson> el_-: you messed up. use Ubuntu Server: Rescue CD
[19:58] <Gnea> el_-: just skip the details and get down to the nitty-gritty :)
[19:59] <Gnea> el_-: for instance: WHY can't you boot the box into rescue mode? What's preventing that?
[19:59] <el_-> Ok here is the story: Box was installed in 07, run since then, yesterday the board "exploded" now i put the disks into another machine to rescue the data and upgrade after that
[19:59] <el_-> If I boot into Rescue mode it freezes when it says give root password
[20:00] <gizmo_the_great> usser: have you added that storage entry to smb.conf? I don't have an entry
[20:00] <Gnea> el_-: alright, can you boot into a livecd on the new machine?
[20:00] <el_-> yes
[20:00] <el_-> but it is a hassle with the raid ;)
[20:01] <usser> gizmo_the_great: thats my share and yes i added it manually, but that may not apply to you ie path is different etc, its basically an example to show you how its usually done
[20:01] <Gnea> how far does it get on a regular boot?
[20:01] <the_fronny> Gnea: That ":set" fixed it! thanks! (But that's pretty lame default behavior. I've never seen that anywhere else.)
[20:01] <el_-> Gnea: Until  openbsd secure shell server's configuration sshd
[20:02] <Gnea> el_-: does it just freeze, or..?
[20:03] <SiDi> Does anyone know how bash's auto completion works ? For instance, how can i add rules for autocompletion for the command line options of a program X ?
[20:03] <el_-> Gnea: yes
[20:03] <el_-> just freeze
[20:03] <Gnea> the_fronny: cheers :) that's actually standard behavior, vi[m]'s always done that
[20:03] <Gnea> el_-: tried ctrl-c?
[20:03] <el_-> Gnea: yes
[20:03] <madduck> !mp3
[20:03] <el_-> if you hit the num key, the led does not flash on the keyboard
[20:04] <usser> SiDi: look at what files installed with bash-completion package and figure out if htere is a text file somewhere that you can edit
[20:04] <Pici> SiDi: Take a look at the contents of /etc/bash_completion.d/
[20:04] <Frostshock> hi, how do i check what version of intel graphic driver im using?
[20:04] <rhsanborn> SiDi: This looks promising: http://ifacethoughts.net/2009/04/06/extending-bash-auto-completion/
[20:04] <linny> how can i make ssh use a proxy ?
[20:04] <Gnea> el_-: gotcha... what sort of difference between the main hardware now from what it was attached to then?
[20:05] <SiDi> rhsanborn: cheers :) gonna read that
[20:05] <bigjocker> linny, 'proxy' does lot exist in SSH terminology
