[01:32] <method_> hey
[01:32] <method_> @drone
[01:32] <method_> how are you
[01:33] <method_> oops
[01:57] <method_> @terminalator
[01:58] <method_> do you know the repo for kali's distro?
[01:58] <terminalator> method_: kali linux?
[01:59] <method_> yees
[01:59] <terminalator> You can just grab the kali iso from their main site
[01:59] <terminalator> What do you mean exactly?
[02:01] <method_> im on xubuntu and i need the kali repo's
[02:01] <method_> kali wouldint install
[02:03] <terminalator> deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib
[02:03] <terminalator> Is the one, if I recall correctly
[02:03] <method_> looks right, but i only need one or two tools so im going to use katoolin
[02:04] <method_> thanks anyways though
[02:04] <terminalator> Sure, no problem
[02:29] <Unit193> Bad idea to mix repos.
[02:35] <ikatamoonshots> @method i made a sample xubuntu setup with most of kalis repos and other itsec tools - was mainly intended as script setup sample for xubuntu in general but maybe thats close to what youre looking for https://github.com/alphaaurigae/ownsec
[02:36] <ikatamoonshots> bottom line, you can use any of those tools in kali if you get them from source or apt :)
[02:37] <ikatamoonshots> kali also has  lots of repos directly in their own git repositories so thats an option if you cant find them anywhere else
[02:39] <ikatamoonshots> oops hes gone i guess ...

[07:31] <yuki_> @ChanServ
[07:33] <yuki_> Hi I have a little problem. I am trying to install xUbuntu to my FS AmiloPi and bought a new hard disk but it has been stuck on Creating ext4 file system for / for much too long
[07:34] <yuki_> I have formatted my harddisk several times before and it is a used harddisk. It is a WD Scorpio Blue
[15:57] <xubuntu55i> hello there?
[15:58] <xubuntu55i> is anyone there?
[16:05] <gnrp> xubuntu55i: There are people here, but nobody will reply. If you have a question, ask it directly
[16:05] <gnrp> and wait a while for the answer
[16:06] <xubuntu55i> so sad(((
[20:35] <PupUser14ed6c> hello. What partition size scheme do you guys suggest? 320GB HDD, 1GB RAM.
[20:36] <diogenes_> PupUser14ed6c, / = 30 Gb, swap = 5 Gb, /home = rest
[20:36] <diogenes_> if it's uefi then add 300 Mb = /boot/rfi
[20:37] <diogenes_>  /boot/efi*
[20:37] <PupUser14ed6c> not sure about UEFI. also not sure if XFCE is heavy on a celeron CPU and 1gb of memory
[20:37] <diogenes_> it's not about xfce
[20:37] <diogenes_> it's about modernr browsers
[20:38] <diogenes_> having 1 Gb Ram, and opening two facebook tabs will start lagging
[20:39] <PupUser14ed6c> I never hat a boot partition. i always do 2gb swap, 20-30 gb root and the rest for home
[20:41] <diogenes_> you need to check your bios settings, if it's in legacy mode then you don't need that /boot/efi, if the CSM or UEFI mode is enabled + secure boot, then you gonna need /boot/efi partition
[20:42] <PupUser14ed6c> The laptop is manufactured in 2008- does it still needs UEFI stuff? i thought its too 2010ish.
[20:43] <diogenes_> hehe if 2008 then no uefi, so go ahed with 3 partitions only
[20:44] <PupUser14ed6c> Do you have any suggestion about the recommanded swap and root size?
[20:44] <diogenes_> root size depends on how many applications you gonna install
[20:45] <diogenes_> if you use plenty, then 30 Gb would be enough
[20:46] <diogenes_> for 1 Gb of Ram, 3 Gb of swap would be enough but i'd give it 5 Gb because you might want to upgrade Ram. and add a few Gb so then you won't need to adjust swap
[20:46] <PupUser14ed6c> Its currently 2 and i have 2 distros installed. Lubuntu and Q4OS. but i want to move to xubuntu
[20:47] <diogenes_> good choice


[01:36] <Cogito1729> Bodhizazen: well, I haven't yet been successful with unetbootin
[01:37] <pedro3005> hi Cogito1729
[01:37] <pedro3005> what are you attempting?
[01:37] <Cogito1729> I'm trying to do a USB-only install of Ubuntu 9.10 on my ps3
[01:38] <Cogito1729> I've tried a couple different bootloaders..
[01:38] <Cogito1729> .. but it's not recognizing the ubuntu installation.
[01:39] <Cogito1729> (during bootup, that is, it's not letting my initiate the install from USB)
[01:39] <pedro3005> Cogito1729, ah, sorry, don't know anything about ps3
[01:40] <Cogito1729> pedro3005:  thanks for askin'. Have you any experience preparing ubuntu install on a USB (in general)?
[01:41] <pedro3005> Cogito1729, do you want to install ubuntu on the usb or use the usb to install?
[01:41] <Cogito1729> Pedro3005: Ideally, the latter
[01:42] <pedro3005> Cogito1729, and can you successfully boot from USB?
[01:42] <Cogito1729> Pedro3005: I followed the instructions on http://psubuntu.com/wiki/SetupPS3 to prepare the PS3... I can boot into a otheros command line.
[01:43] <Cogito1729> From there, I think I have to mount the USB and start the install
[01:43] <Cogito1729> But I don't know how to do that.
[01:43] <pedro3005> Cogito1729, hm, perhaps this little tool could make things easier for you http://www.netboot.me/
[01:44] <pedro3005> oh
[01:44] <pedro3005> but it's a special ubuntu
[01:44] <pedro3005> :/
[01:45] <Cogito1729> Pedro3005: Hmm. Let me see if I can find something on a  cross-search on netboot.me and ps3
[01:45] <pedro3005> Cogito1729, probably not :/ it's not quite that famous
[01:46] <Cogito1729> Pedro3005: seems that way. I'd really rather not go with YellowDog over Ubuntu, but it seems there are more ps3-centric resources for YDL.
[01:46] <pedro3005> Cogito1729, maybe http://www.netboot.me/my/newconfig
[01:51] <Cogito1729> I think this is the same issue: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1247987
[01:52] <pedro3005> Cogito1729, try the solution there
[02:02] <Cogito1729> pedro3005: I was able to start the install, but ran into an error during hardware detection ... says "Your installation CD-ROM couldn't be mounted."
[02:02] <Cogito1729> pedro3005: of course, I'm not using an installation cd, I'm using a USB
[02:02] <pedro3005> Cogito1729, :/
[02:03] <Cogito1729> pedro3005: Haha, yeah, well ... that's the same issue reported by that thread I linked to. I'm making slow progress, but progress.
[02:03] <pedro3005> Cogito1729, hope you make it, but I can't be of much help
[02:04] <Cogito1729> pedro3005: I appreciate the support, man.
[02:05] <Cogito1729> Pedro3005: Do you know what KSDZ is doing in his reply to that thread?
[02:05] <Cogito1729> He's using "Gujin".
[02:05] <pedro3005> Cogito1729, I don't know what Gujin is
[02:06] <Cogito1729> pedro3005: okay, thanks.
[02:26] <Cogito1729> Hmm, maybe grub2 would work: http://rww.dreamwidth.org/3100.html
[02:27] <pedro3005> hello swoody
[03:33] <yax51> does anyone know a program that will allow me to use my computer as a wireless router? there is one for windows called connectify, but I'm looking for a linux one
[04:02] <ShadowKnight> Hey, i was wondering how does the other os thing work on the ps3? is it worth it?
[04:06] <Cogito1729> ShadowKnight: I'm trying that out now.
[04:07] <Cogito1729> ShadowKnight: Xbuntu 9.10
[04:08] <ShadowKnight> hmmm okay then let me know how it goes im curious how that works
[04:08] <ShadowKnight> i wanted to back up my ps3 before doing it but i cant do it on my external hard drive.
[04:08] <Cogito1729> ShadowKnight: Why can't you backup? HD too small?
[04:09] <ShadowKnight> no it has way more than enough space i just cant seem to make it work. its a western digital mybook essential
[04:10] <Cogito1729> ShadowKnight: if you plug it into your ps3, can you see it from the XMB?
[04:10] <ShadowKnight> nope nothing at all from what i know let me double check
[04:10] <Cogito1729> Check your video / music menus. It should show up there if it's in a compatible format.
[04:11] <ShadowKnight> no its not up there. does that mean its not a compatible format? any way to make it so?
[04:12] <Cogito1729> ShadowKnight: Sure, you could reformat it. You'd lose all the data on there, though.
[04:13] <ShadowKnight> damn wow that sucks actually, any other way? i dont think i have enough space on my comp for what is in there
[04:14] <Cogito1729> ShadowKnight: Do you have another HD or a USB key?
[04:15] <ShadowKnight> nope none of that.
[04:15] <ShadowKnight> I have about 400+gigs on that and i would have been able to put it on my computer but i partitioned the drive to install linux. my biggest usb is just 4gb
[04:15] <pedro3005> 400gigs O.O
[04:16] <ShadowKnight> yea lol its a 1.5tb hard drive i have a lot of music videos and programs i have kept lol

[04:18] <shahan> pedro3005: yes
[04:18] <ShadowKnight> is there any way to partition the external hard drive so that i can format a part to be compatible?

[04:45] <ShadowKnight> does anyone know if you could partition an external hard drive so that it could be read in a ps3?
[04:49] <celthunder> uh
[04:49] <celthunder> what format hdd does a ps3 use?
[04:50] <ShadowKnight> i have no idea to be honest. i have read it is FAT32? but not too sure
[04:50] <Cogito1729> ShadowKnight: yes, that's correct.
[04:50] <Cogito1729> ShadowKnight: But you'll have to reformat your drive.
[04:51] <Cogito1729> ShadowKnight: How much is onyour ps3? If you just need to backup your gamedata and setting, and not the media, you could use your 4gb flash key
[04:54] <abhinav> Cogito1729: Are you sure it's a fat32 ? fat32 does not support more than 4GB files, right ?

[12:09] <Votebot> Please use "LOL", "OMG" and "ROFLCOPTER" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks
[12:09] <nigelb> ok, no lag

[14:16] <Silver_Fox_> Hello.

[15:56] <abhi_nav> why nobody ask question here?
[15:57] <pedro3005> in soviet russia question ask you
[15:57] <abhi_nav> is this timepass chat channel?
[15:57] <pedro3005> abhi_nav, :P no.. it's just a bit dead

[15:57] <pedro3005> it's meant for support
[15:58] <Silver_Fox_> Correct
[15:58] <leoquant> \o/
[15:58] <leoquant> lol
[15:58] <abhi_nav> then why nobody is here?
[15:58] <abhi_nav> why we dont have a system to tell to newbies that this channel is for them?
[15:58] <Silver_Fox_> 46 people are here :)
[15:59] <pedro3005> i put a link in my UBF signature
[15:59] <Silver_Fox_> !topic
[15:59] <Votebot> Please read the channel topic whenever you enter, as it contains important information. To view it at any time after joining, simply type /topic
[15:59] <abhi_nav> ohhh
[15:59] <pedro3005> occasionally, some people do come in and ask stuff
[15:59] <pedro3005> and we occasionally solve them
[15:59] <abhi_nav> ohhhh
[15:59] <abhi_nav> I see
[16:00] <abhi_nav> good
[16:00] <abhi_nav> What My suggestion is when some one ask a question, which he should ask here, in main channel #ubuntu, then we should tell them to come here
[16:00] <pedro3005> perhaps
[16:01] <abhi_nav> perhaps, what?
[16:01] <pedro3005> but this group needs improvement before being able to take that
[16:02] <abhi_nav> what improvement?
[16:04] <Silver_Fox_> That would swamp this channel.
[16:04] <pedro3005> abhi_nav, well, not enough people dedicating to answer questions
[16:04] <abhi_nav> pedro3005: hmmm ok
[16:04] <abhi_nav> Silver_Fox_ hmm
[16:09] <ghostofmybrain_> is there a way to copy a file to two directories at the same time instead of recopying it?
[16:09] <abhi_nav> yah some one asked
[16:09] <abhi_nav> finally
[16:09] <abhi_nav> :D
[16:10] <pedro3005> abhi_nav, so answer it :P
[16:11] <abhi_nav> ghostofmybrain_ as per my knowledge you can copy multiple source, but to single destination
[16:11] <abhi_nav> pedro3005: :D
[16:11] <pedro3005> ghostofmybrain_, hm.... well if you just want it all in one line you could use &&
[16:11] <abhi_nav> yah
[16:11] <pedro3005> cp a /path/ && cp a /another/path
[16:11] <ghostofmybrain_> ok
[16:11] <ghostofmybrain_> that's what I wanted, all in one line. Thanks
[16:13] <geirha> You can define a function to do it. 2cp() { cp "$1" "$2" && cp "$1" "$3"; }
[16:14] <geirha> Then, 2cp file /path /another/path
[16:14] <ghostofmybrain_> ahhh
[16:15] <ghostofmybrain_> I'm not sure how to define a function. just put that in the command ien?
[16:15] <ghostofmybrain_> line?
[16:15] <geirha> Yes. You can put it at the end of  ~/.bashrc to make it permanent
[16:17] <ghostofmybrain_> ok
[16:17] <ghostofmybrain_> cool
[16:17] <geirha> Should make that function more safe first though.
[16:17] <geirha> You can't do 2cp * /path /other/path for instance
[16:17] <geirha> That'll overwrite files
[16:30] <geirha> 2cp() { local dest n=$#; if ((n < 3)); then echo "Too few args"; return 1; fi; dest=( "${@: -2}" ); set -- "${@:1:n-2}"; echo cp "$@" "${dest[0]}" && echo cp "$@" "${dest[1]}"; }
[16:31] <geirha> There. That one should handle globs
[16:31] <ghostofmybrain_> cool deal thanks
[16:31] <nigelb> geirha: that was fast work :)
[16:32] <abhi_nav> :)
[16:33] <geirha> Oh, I left two echos in there, so it will only print the cp commands, not run them.
[16:33] <abhi_nav> ohh
[16:34] <geirha> If you paste that into a terminal, then run "type 2cp", it will show the function nicely identented, so it'll be easier to see what it does :)
[17:10] <ghostofmybrain_> I keep trying to kill this process and it won't ever end
[17:10] <Silver_Fox_> What are you trying to kill ghostofmybrain_  ?
[17:10] <ghostofmybrain_> lynx
[17:11] <Silver_Fox_> What is it ?
[17:11] <ghostofmybrain_> a command line browser
[17:11] <ghostofmybrain_> internet browser
[17:11] <Silver_Fox_> try:  killall lynx
[17:11] <nigelb> ghostofmybrain_: ctrl c?
[17:12] <ghostofmybrain_> killall lynx didn't work
[17:13] <Silver_Fox_> Hm
[17:15] <Silver_Fox_> Have you tried:  ALT + F2 and call the program "xkill" then click on the bad program ?
[17:16] <ghostofmybrain_> let me install that real quick...
[17:16] <Silver_Fox_> Wait
[17:16] <ghostofmybrain_> xkill: unable to open display ""
[17:16] <Silver_Fox_> Run ps -aef .  Find the process ID
[17:16] <abhinav> ghostofmybrain_: lynx ? try control c twice ?
[17:17] <Silver_Fox_> Then run:  kill -9 $processID
[17:17] <abhinav> ghostofmybrain_: lynx (the browser) needs to consecutive cntrl-c's to quit
[17:17] <ghostofmybrain_> abhinav: that doesn't do anything
[17:18] <ghostofmybrain_> ah, kill -9 worked!
[17:18] <abhinav> ghostofmybrain_: as Silver_Fox_ mentioned, or killall --regexp lynx
[17:18] <ghostofmybrain_> thanks to both fo you :)
[17:19] <Silver_Fox_> Pleasure
[17:19] <Silver_Fox_> A little strange that killall failed.
[17:19] <Silver_Fox_> Did it through any kind of error from terminal ?
[17:19] <Silver_Fox_> throw
[17:20] <ghostofmybrain_> no, it didn't have any error
[17:20] <ghostofmybrain_> it simply didn't kill the prodess
[17:21] <Silver_Fox_> Okay,  thank you.
[17:21]  * Silver_Fox_ goes to look into why that did not work as expected
[17:23] <Silver_Fox_> Ah,  looks like It could have been a parent process re-spawning
[17:37] <lukjad86> ghostofmybrain_ Are you there?

[18:28] <pedro3005> i think he's talking about how on lucid it's on the left

[18:28] <cprofitt> ok... gconf...
[18:29] <cprofitt> stupid move by Canonical/Ubuntu
[18:29] <pedro3005> cprofitt, can't remember where exactly, google.com
[18:29] <DarkwingDuck> pedro3005: ahhh... I should look at the gnome in lucid but, seeing how I use KDE I dunno... when it releases my wife will upgrade her computer to Lucid
[18:30] <lukjad86> cprofitt Yeah, gconf
[18:30] <cprofitt> well... if I can get back to sanity by not using Gnome...
[18:30] <lukjad86> cprofitt I agree with you
[18:31] <cprofitt> where in gconf-editor
[18:31] <lukjad86> cprofitt To tell you the truth, at the next upgrade, i'm switching to xubuntu I think

[19:21] <phillw> xcrunner509: I've been running it for a few months
[19:22] <xcrunner509> when it loads it shows the icon of everything correct
[19:23] <phillw> my desktop is well cluttered, I haven't noticed icons displaying incorrectly; are there any types you are referring to ?
[19:24] <xcrunner509> well i just installed it and it show all of the icons but there are a few that i can only see the tips of
[19:24] <xcrunner509> is there a way to get a clear desktop
[19:25] <phillw> what shows on your desktop will be mounts of disks / partitions that you have, and the contents of your ~/Desktop directory
[19:26] <Sword2318> Any body how would i permently mount my windows drive
[19:27] <xcrunner509> is it supposed to have a tab bar along the left side
[19:28] <phillw> Sword2318: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountwindows
[19:28] <Sword2318> Is ther any simple commond
[19:29] <Sword2318> New to ubuntu
[19:30] <phillw> Sword2318: that's why i gave you that link, it does it nice and easy using GUI, if you want to do it by editing the fstab by hand, then there is alink at the bottom of that tutorial taking you there, but that is more complicated
[19:32] <Sword2318> Thank u philw
[19:32] <phillw> xcrunner509: i'm not in ubuntu 10.04 atm, I'm testing lubuntu 10.04. if you pop over to http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=377  that is the forum for Lucid, there's been a few changes in the last week, I need to get my 'main' 10.04 updated.
[19:33] <xcrunner509> ok thank you

[19:35] <phillw> xcrunner509: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=336  has the how-to's
[19:35] <phillw> the second sticky
[22:23] <ghostofmybrain_> so I'm reading this tutorial,and I need to do "tar xfz" to something. What exactly am I doing? the "tar" is basically executing the tar file, right? what is the xfz?
[22:23] <pedro3005> ghostofmybrain_, I think that extracts a tar file
[22:24] <pedro3005>  -x, --extract, --get
[22:24] <pedro3005>            extract files from an archive
[22:24] <pedro3005> -f, --file ARCHIVE
[22:24] <pedro3005>            use archive file or device ARCHIVE
[22:24] <pedro3005>      -Z, --compress, --uncompress
[22:24] <pedro3005>            filter the archive through compress
[22:25] <ghostofmybrain_> ahhh, cool.
[22:28] <geirha> That's the wrong "Z" though. It's lowercase z (which filters through gzip instead of compress)
[22:29] <pedro3005> geirha, yes sorry :/
[22:30] <geirha> The version of GNU tar in Ubuntu though, detects compressions automatically, so you don't need the z.   tar xf file.tar.gz  is enough.
[22:33] <romulus_> hi everybody i'm looking for some help about how to use IRC, i'm a complete novice, i run Xchat gnome, that's all I know !
[22:33] <celthunder> ok
[22:34] <celthunder> what were you looking at in particular?
[22:34] <celthunder> basic commands are
[22:34] <pedro3005> hi
[22:34] <celthunder> /join #<channel> /part #<channel> /nick <new nickname> /msg <nick> <message>
[22:34] <romulus_> i can find the commands easily
[22:34] <celthunder> ok
[22:34] <ghostofmybrain> hehehe, cool
[22:34] <celthunder> then what were you wondering?
[22:35] <ghostofmybrain> I never meant to have an underscore at teh end
[22:35] <romulus_> how to find the channels which could interest me
[22:35] <celthunder> /list
[22:35] <celthunder> xchat has a built in channel search thing too
[22:35] <pedro3005> romulus_, click on Server > List of Channels
[22:36] <romulus_> ok thanks
[22:36] <romulus_> but what is freenode
[22:36] <celthunder> a network
[22:36] <pedro3005> romulus_, this network
[22:36] <romulus_> this is the source of all tche chans ?
[22:37] <romulus_> ok
[22:37] <romulus_> how to join another network ?
[22:37] <celthunder> /newserver or /server
[22:37] <pedro3005> romulus_, XChat > New > Server Tab
[22:37] <celthunder> one kills your current connection the otherm akes a new tab for a new server
[22:37] <pedro3005>  /server server.address
[22:39] <romulus_> ok and i find new servers on the web ?
[22:39] <celthunder> yeah
[22:39] <celthunder> pretty much if you join a site and they have an irc channel they'll give a network a port and a channel
[22:39] <pedro3005> romulus_, you can check some out at XChat > Network List
[22:41] <romulus_> i cant find it i run a french version
[22:41] <romulus_> i've got the list of channels
[22:41] <romulus_> but not the list of servers
[22:41] <celthunder> press ctrl+s
[22:42] <romulus_> it opens a window to save the conversation
[22:43] <celthunder> ?
[22:43] <celthunder> hmm
[22:44] <celthunder> first menu option in the first menu
[22:44] <celthunder> should be a server list
[22:44] <romulus_> i got it
[22:44] <romulus_> "connexion"
[22:44] <romulus_> thanks
[22:45] <romulus_> so i can access any server from here
[22:45] <romulus_> i just need the name ?
[22:46] <pedro3005> romulus_, not all servers are on the list
[22:47] <romulus_> ok so how do i join a specific one ?
[22:48] <LMAlt> not sure if this is the right place, but can someone help with getting sound to my flat screen.  Here is what i have graphics card (GeForce 8400 GS), ubuntu (9.10), tv (vizio va320e). currently hooked up dvi to hdmi
[22:48] <pedro3005> romulus_, /server <sever>
[22:48] <romulus_> ok
[22:48] <celthunder> LMAlt, is your hdmi cable your outbound sound default/what your program is set to use?
[22:49] <romulus_> i must choose a server because of its geographic place no ?
[22:49] <romulus_> maybe there is a guide i should read
[22:49] <romulus_> my questions are very classical i guess
[22:50] <pedro3005> romulus_, no, you choose a server because of the channels in it
[22:50] <romulus_> ok
[22:51] <romulus_> thanks for your help
[22:54] <ghostofmybrain> how do I copy multiple files to one directory?
[22:55] <celthunder> ghostofmybrain, cp <anypattern that matches the files> <dir>
[22:58] <pedro3005> hello compiledkernel
[22:58] <geirha> ghostofmybrain: And an explanation of the patterns: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/glob
[23:01] <ghostofmybrain> geirha: ooooo, that's helpful. I've been doing it the loooong way
[23:02] <ghostofmybrain> so if I did cp *.zip directory, it will copy all zip files to the new directory?
[23:02] <pedro3005> yes
[23:02] <geirha> Yes, all zip-files in the current directory, to the destination directory at the end.
[23:03] <ghostofmybrain> haha, wow, that makes things way faster
[23:04] <phillw> ghostofmybrain: you may want to pop over here and get the free book --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1052065
[23:04] <geirha> If you want to become even more efficient, I strongly recommend: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide
[23:05] <geirha> There's also a guide called Advanced Bash-scripting guide. You should stay away from that, at least as a beginner.
[23:05] <LMAlt> can someone help with getting sound to my flat screen.  Here is what i have graphics card (GeForce 8400 GS), ubuntu (9.10), tv (vizio va320e). currently hooked up dvi to hdmi
[23:06] <LMAlt> IM me if you can help
[23:07] <LMAlt> TIA
[23:13] <geirha> dvi only carries video, you'll need a separate cable for audio.
[23:14] <LMAlt> i do it goes from speaker on back of pc to AV on tv
[23:14] <LMAlt> but still no sound
[23:15] <geirha> Play some music, and cycle through all AV modes on the tv and check if you get audio in any of them.


[02:50] <leo-unglaub> witch is the best drop down terminal for xubuntu with supports multipe desktops?
[02:55] <bazhang> such as guake? tilda and the like?
[02:58] <leo-unglaub> bazhang: yes, like them...but tilda has limited support for multiple screens
[02:58] <leo-unglaub> i have 3 screens here...and tilda is every time on the left one
[02:58] <leo-unglaub> but i need i on the middle one
[03:00] <bazhang> http://www.ubunturoot.com/2010/08/drop-down-terminal-for-ubuntu.html   I see only the three here
[03:01] <leo-unglaub> bazhang: okay, so it's not just me :)
[03:01] <bazhang> Also one good feature of Tilda is that you can disable showing on all workplaces.
[03:02] <bazhang> ^ that's from the link
[03:03] <leo-unglaub> hmmm, okay
[03:03] <leo-unglaub> i will try both
[03:03] <leo-unglaub> maybe there was an update
[03:04] <leo-unglaub> bazhang: thanks !
[03:05] <bazhang> hope that helps, never used them, just the kde one yakuake (which you wouldn't want as xubuntu is gtk)
[03:06] <leo-unglaub> hehe, yakuake is the only one i know witch supports multipe monitors *g*
[03:06] <leo-unglaub> bud sadly kde only
[03:09] <leo-unglaub> well, i can live with guake....i am still soo happy about xfce....after one year of unity...believe me....i am the happiest person in the world to habe a desktop without all those fancy things :)
[03:28] <bazhang> wonder if HUD will have a dropdown
[03:31] <leo-unglaub> hud?
[03:49] <jandrusk> HUD is an updated feature in that Unity garbage.
[04:03] <bazhang> !hud
[05:17] <Shirakawasuna> anyone else been getting this recently? all of my notifications get put into some weird mail icon
[05:22] <kiopnuio> Where should bugs be filed against xubuntu?
[05:23] <kiopnuio> I don't understand why oneconf is installed and I don't see how to remove it without hacking the dependency chain
[05:27] <Bham-Bob> After running the updater my Xubuntu will not boot, all I get is a >grub prompt
[05:42] <holstein> Bham-Bob: i would try an older kernel if you see one
[05:46] <Bham-Bob> I don't get the boot menu it just drops straight to the grub> prompt
[05:46] <Bham-Bob> I have just booted from a live CD and am trying to figure out how to restore grub
[05:53] <Bham-Bob> anyone know how to restore or install grub from a live CD?
[05:53] <kiopnuio> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Grub
[05:53] <metasansana> kiopnuio: I believe the bugs are filed on launchpad
[05:54] <cfhowlett> Bham-Bob   ask over @ #ubuntu
[05:55] <Bham-Bob> okay
[10:00] <EtherDen> hi everyone! %)
[10:01] <Ghrim> Hey, i'm using the power management tool, and when the screen locks it uses something really really ugly. Is there anything I can do to change this?
[10:02] <EtherDen> i don't know, sorry %)
[10:04] <EtherDen> may be video driver not work correct, in my opinion
[10:04] <Ghrim> No, it's just the default thing, I think it's called xscreensaver?
[10:08] <EtherDen> press ctr+alt+backspace and restart lightdm, for example
[10:09] <Myrtti> well that doesn't replace the screensaver
[10:10] <mongy> if you mean the picture of the burning monitor, yeah it's not very flash
[10:10] <mongy> I set mine to turn the monitor off when it locks
[10:13] <mongy> the image is in /usr/share/pixmaps
[10:13] <EtherDen> so... i completed setup xubuntu on my mac, i need restart, see you later %)
[10:19] <Ghrim> I've found something called 'slock' which just goes black, theres no prompt or anything, you just type in your password and hit enter. Is there any way of using this with the power management tool?
[12:19] <baizon> hmm
[12:19] <baizon> is this a bug?
[12:19] <baizon> when i try to install alacarte, i have to install 137 other dependencies
[12:20] <baizon> the whole mono lib, compiz and gnome stuff
[12:24] <mongy> --no-install-recommends
[12:27] <baizon> mongy: thank you :)
[12:28] <mongy> I don't think it works 100% that way though.
[12:28] <mongy> Like, I wasn't able to edit the properties of an item
[12:28] <knome> it's fixed in precise
[12:28] <knome> baizon, yes, it's a bug :P
[12:29] <baizon> knome: indeed
[12:29] <baizon> so i have to wait 2 months :)
[12:30] <knome> well, you can use --no-install-recommends for now and most things in alacarte should work
[12:30] <baizon> no
[12:30] <baizon> the most important thing doesnt work
[12:30] <knome> aha
[12:31] <baizon> in 12.04
[12:31] <baizon> yes
[12:31] <baizon> but not in 11.10
[12:32] <baizon> i cant edit the "web browser" entry
[12:32] <baizon> or add some entrys
[12:32] <baizon> but no problem
[12:33] <baizon> i will wait until 12.04 :)
[12:33] <knome> the web browser is an exo launcher
[12:33] <knome> afaik
[12:33] <baizon> i know
[12:33] <baizon> but last time i tryd to edit this entrys my whole menu was broken
[12:34] <knome> ;]
[12:34] <knome> that's probably because OnlyShowIn=XFCE doesn't work in alacarte on 11.10 either
[12:35] <baizon> yep :)
[13:24] <musashi> hi all

[13:27] <musashi> It s great how installation have evolved
[13:27] <musashi> since that text black terminal
[13:28] <baizon> yeah, but its a ubuntu thing :>
[13:28] <baizon> if you try to install arch linux it will be very difficult comparing to ubuntu :)
[13:28] <musashi> i know
[13:28] <musashi> I ve  installed mint and xubuntu
[13:28] <baizon> thats why i like xubuntu, its so easy :)
[13:28] <musashi> hahaha I did last month
[13:29] <baizon> mint isnt good with xfce
[13:29] <baizon> bleeding edge :(
[13:29] <musashi> well I tried standard with gnome
[13:29] <musashi> no?
[13:29] <baizon> after installation and then updates my system was broken
[13:29] <baizon> musashi: mint + xfce is bleeding edge. Minut + Gnome isnt thats right
[13:30] <musashi> I m installing in a laptop because of the power manager
[13:31] <musashi> of xfce
[13:32] <musashi> cause I m using crunchbang with openbox and a xfcepowermanager 0.8.5 and it gives me problems and I cant update it because  of dependencies. well it s  a long history
[13:32] <musashi> I dont want to be boring :P
[13:33] <baizon> :)
[13:35] <musashi> well can  I see a shorcut key reference? I like using kb more than touchpad or mouse

[15:33] <ThePendulum> What file system should I use for a storage hard drive for linux?
[15:34] <bazhang> shared with windows or not
[15:34] <ThePendulum> well, perhaps in the future
[15:35] <bazhang> ext4 if not
[15:35] <ThePendulum> and what if yes?
[15:35] <bazhang> ntfs
[15:35] <ThePendulum> hmpf
[15:35] <ThePendulum> I just formatted it to ntsf, and now the 'daemon is prohibited'
[15:35] <ThePendulum> when I try to mount the drive
[15:35] <ThePendulum> oh
[15:35] <ThePendulum> it works now, nvm
[15:35] <bazhang> with ntfs-3g?
[15:36] <bazhang> ok
[15:36] <ThePendulum> thanks
[15:36] <bazhang> heh I did nothing
[15:36] <ThePendulum> Well, you confirmed I should format it to ntsf if I want to use it for both windows and linux
[15:37] <bazhang> glad to take credit though!
[15:38] <ThePendulum> Haha

[16:37] <felicia> just installed latest xubuntu on an old machine with an ATI Sapphire X550 video card. no restricted drivers available. installed latest updates. monitor resolution low(ish). ideas?
[16:42] <baizon> felicia: try the radeon drivers.
[16:42] <baizon> http://packages.ubuntu.com/de/maverick/xserver-xorg-video-radeon
[16:42] <baizon> ou sorry it wont wor
[16:42] <baizon> word
[16:42] <baizon> work
[16:44] <felicia> not working
[16:45] <baizon> felicia: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[16:46] <baizon> you got the package xserver-xorg-video-ati installd?
[16:49] <felicia> not sure. how do i check?
[16:57] <felicia> baizon, no. it's not
[17:00] <baizon> so install it plz :)
[17:07] <felicia> baizon, not able to install. it says: dependencies unsatisfied
[17:08] <felicia> ok now. added the source. installed via terminal
[17:08] <felicia> what now?
[17:09] <baizon> reboot :)
[17:09] <felicia> ok
[17:09] <baizon> and check if it works
[17:12] <felicia> baizon, nope. :)
[17:12] <felicia> resolution still jerky
[17:12] <felicia> no 3d support
[17:12] <baizon> felicia: what cable do you use?
[17:12] <felicia> vga
[17:13] <baizon> what resolution do you need?
[17:13] <felicia> 1920 prefferably, it's a 21" monitor
[17:14] <felicia> the point is, the motherboard has an internal 64MB video card, and the ATI was added afterward. should i try to remove it and stay on the onboard card???
[17:16] <baizon> you can test it
[17:16] <felicia> ok
[17:23] <felicia> baizon, still no change.
[17:24] <felicia> question: in bios i have the settings: primary graphics card - PCI, PCIE VGA, integrated vga
[17:25] <felicia> which one should i choose?
[17:26] <jesusrmx> hello, I cannot apply updates, the update manager insist there is an update available, trying to install fails because is from a "no authenticated source" (my translation from spanish), if I uncheck the package (libnspr4-0d) it anyways fails with the same result, how do I either force the install or force forget such package?. thanks
[17:26] <metasansana> felicia: PCIE would be the add in card
[17:27] <felicia> metasansana, which doesn't work either
[17:27] <jmcantrell> anyone having trouble with mouse clicks with the latest updates? it's driving me bonkers
[17:27] <felicia> now i am on the integrated card
[17:28] <felicia> should i reinstall with the ATI removed completely?
[17:32] <jesusrmx> jmcantrell, me. Sometimes I have to click 3 or four times so it works, I thought it was the mouse hardware problem ...
[17:33] <leo-unglaub> Hi, i am building a "custom action" in thunar....but i need a placeholder %F with contains all selected filed from all open thunar instances?
[17:33] <leo-unglaub> is ther a option for that?
[17:36] <jmcantrell> jesusrmx: it's happening with my external mouse and my touchpad, so i doubt it's hardware
[17:51] <metsys23> hi fellows
[17:53] <jmcantrell> jesusrmx: do you happen to use btnx?
[17:54] <metsys23> I am with a big problem and you probably can help me: my computer gets to hot when i am using xubuntu, heats up even more than when using windows, any sugestion to fix it?
[17:55] <jesusrmx> jmcantrell, no, just standard support
[17:55] <metsys23> is there a software that can help me with it?
[17:57] <leo-unglaub> metsys23: i guess that your fans are controled by the os himself and windows had some divers for that
[17:57] <leo-unglaub> metsys23: yo should go into the bios and enable the automatic fan powering
[17:57] <leo-unglaub> so you don't have to worry about it
[17:59] <ThePendulum> How do I run a certain command on start-up?
[17:59] <ThePendulum> Or, is there another way to configure & maintain a dualscreen setup besides "xrandr --output DFP3 --left-of DFP4"?
[17:59] <metsys23> leo-unglaub, automatic fan powering? i never heard about it. i will try it, thanks!
[17:59] <metsys23> i will try it rigth now, brb
[18:00] <leo-unglaub> metsys23: or maybe auto fan control
[18:04] <metsys23> leo-unglaub, back... There is an option in my bios named Fan always on and i have ir enabled so it should be right
[18:05] <leo-unglaub> metsys23: another way would be with lm_sensors
[18:05] <leo-unglaub> but sady i only have a good gernam toturial
[18:06] <leo-unglaub> metsys23: what model is your computer?
[18:07] <metsys23> compaq presario cq60
[18:07] <metsys23> it always get hotter really fast, is a model issue
[18:07] <ThePendulum> That's why I prefer to build my own systems, hehe
[18:08] <metsys23> but in windwos it auto-slowdown when it is too hot
[18:08] <metsys23> and in linux it just poweroff :(
[18:08] <leo-unglaub> metsys23: but the fans are running all the time?
[18:08] <leo-unglaub> maybe there is to much dust in it?
[18:08] <ThePendulum> metsys23: Do you have room for more fans? Perhaps replace some fans with better ones?
[18:08] <leo-unglaub> have you tryed cleanin it?
[18:09] <ThePendulum> And indeed, make sure it isn't clogged with dust
[18:10] <leo-unglaub> metsys23: in xfce4-goodies there are some scripts witrh allow you to monitor the temp in your computer and take some actions if the temp is rising to fast
[18:11] <metsys23> yes, it can be a problem, i never open this computer, is a laptop with about 4 years
[18:11] <metsys23> probably it is clogged with dust... the fans are working by the moment i start it until i shutdown it :)
[18:12] <leo-unglaub> metsys23: than the first thing is cleaning it
[18:12] <ThePendulum> Oh it's a laptop
[18:12] <leo-unglaub> metsys23: that can bring you the releave you needet with the temp probem
[18:15] <metsys23> leo-unglaub and ThePendulum you are rigth, i probably will open it by the first time and aspire it
[18:15] <metsys23> thanks a lot
[18:15] <leo-unglaub> metsys23: :)
[18:15] <ThePendulum> Be careful, laptops are a bitch to open up and put together again
[18:15] <metsys23> a will see some videos about how to open it :)
[18:15] <metsys23> ThePendulum, thats what i am afraid :(
[18:16] <leo-unglaub> metsys23: well, the worst thing is that you have to buy a new laptop...with also fixes the heating problem *g*
[18:16] <ThePendulum> lol
[18:20] <metsys23> leo-unglaub, hahahaha thats right, and in fact this one is getting a bit old :) but there is no money to bougth a new one :(
[18:29] <mongy> does it support cpu frequency scaling?
[18:34] <toonRJ> somebody can help me to install vmware on xubuntu 10.04?
[18:34] <toonRJ> i have a problem with kernel headers
[18:44] <ThePendulum> Could anyone connect to me using TeamViewer and set up Xubuntu to utilize both my screens, or tell me how?
[18:46] <covidiu> Hello. I accidentally clicked on an "Do not show this message again button" on a notification message. Is there any way to undo that?
[18:47] <ThePendulum> What program?
[18:48] <covidiu> Just the regular notification bubble I get when connection is established.
[18:49] <ThePendulum> Hmm
[19:19] <mongy> covidiu: the file in ~/.gconf/apps/nm-applet
[19:20] <mongy> <entry name="disable-connected-notifications" mtime="1323012638" type="bool" value="true"/>    change to false
[19:31] <covidiu> mongy: Thanks.
[19:49] <mongy> Im trying to use gnome-mplayer but it only opens in a small player controls only size, and I need to resize the window to see any video.  I have enaled "save window size and location" in the prefs but makes no different
[19:50] <Sysi> what if you disable it
[19:51] <mongy> it was disabled by default.
[19:51] <mvandamme> hi all, I installed Xubuntu 11.10 in English, but I want to change the language. Is it possible ?
[19:51] <Sysi> also try enabling "resize window when new video is loaded
[19:53] <leo-unglaub> mvandamme: System Settings... -> Language Support
[19:54] <mongy> it was..
[19:55] <mvandamme> @leo-unglaub: I do not have System Settings... If have Settings->Settings Manager
[19:55] <leo-unglaub> mvandamme: just type language in the programm finder
[19:55] <leo-unglaub> i just have the german name here :)
[19:56] <leo-unglaub> mvandamme: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/17528/change-the-user-interface-language-in-ubuntu/
[19:57] <mvandamme> @leo-unglaub: it is "Xubuntu", not "Ubuntu" ...
[19:57] <leo-unglaub> mvandamme: it's the same way
[19:58] <leo-unglaub> on all buntus
[19:58] <leo-unglaub> *buntu
[19:59] <mvandamme> @leo-unglaub: I'm sorry, but I do not have System->Administration->Language support ?
[19:59] <leo-unglaub> the path is different, but it's the same tool
[20:00] <mongy> I'll just go back to vlc.
[20:00] <mongy> can't be bothered with silly bugs
[20:00] <leo-unglaub> mvandamme: open a terminal and type "gnome-language-selector "
[20:00] <mvandamme> @leo-unglaub: that did the trick... thanks
[20:01] <leo-unglaub> np
[20:09] <jadoe> I get massive tearing (e.g. when moving windows). How do I fix that?
[20:11] <jadoe> (Intel HD 3000, if that matters)
[20:17] <mongy> jadoe:  compositing enabled?
[20:17] <jadoe> yes
[20:17] <mongy> disable it
[20:18] <jadoe> didn't help
[20:19] <GridCube> jadoe, are you using your proper drivers?
[20:19] <jadoe> that is a good question. i have no idea.
[20:21] <Sysi> 10.04 LTS or newer?
[20:22] <jadoe> 11.10
[20:22] <Sysi> should have the right driver
[20:22] <GridCube> jadoe, check with >gksu jockey-gtk
[20:23] <jadoe> doesn't offer anything, empty list
[20:23] <GridCube> then you don't need drivers :/
[20:26] <Sysi> intel, default drivers are the best you got, you can options them with xorg.conf and maybe something else but I don't really know about that
[20:27] <GridCube> jadoe, this thread should interest you: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1728526
[20:27] <jadoe> thanks
[20:56] <mongy> blueman-applet crashing on startup, is there a fix?
[20:58] <ThePendulum> So
[20:58] <ThePendulum> Xfce dual-screen, anyone? :O
[20:58] <metsys23> hi felows
[20:59] <ThePendulum> Greetings
[21:01] <mongy> sup
[21:03] <jadoe> hm. no tearing with compiz.
[21:07] <metsys23> a quick question (sorry to bore again): is there any way to the OS recognize my 4gb ram in a 32x OS (xubuntu)?
[21:07] <Unit193> !pae
[21:08] <Unit193> PAE kernels are default for Pangolin.
[21:08] <mongy> jadoe: what did you di different
[21:08] <mongy> do*
[21:09] <metsys23> hum, never heard about pae... it transform OS in a 64bits system or simply allow it to regonize my 4gb ram?
[21:09] <Unit193> It's a 32bit helper, not trnasfer.
[21:09] <jadoe> mongy: nothing. i installed compiz and did "compiz --replace"
[21:09] <Unit193> Well, nothing is a "trnasfer"
[21:11] <metsys23> Unit193, thanks! i will read a litle about it and try to set up it. Thanks!
[21:11] <mongy> jadoe: I use that as well.  a side effect is it got rid of my tearing too.
[21:11] <Unit193> Great!
[23:25] <Foxhoundz> How do I save my screen brightness settings
[23:25] <Foxhoundz> it resets every time I reboot the computer
[23:50] <ThePendulum> So
[23:50] <ThePendulum> I installed Dropbox, but the Dropbox option doesn't show up in the menu?
[23:52] <Unit193> Should be under "Internet".
[23:53] <jadoe> is there a way to make a launcher bring an already running instance of the program to the front instead of starting a new instance?
[23:53] <ThePendulum> Unit193: There's no such thing as "Internet"?
[23:54] <ThePendulum> jadoe: Isn't that what the Window Buttons are for?
[23:56] <jadoe> well, i've been using os x for the last five years, i'm having a hard time adjusting. i'd prefer dock-like behaviour. i'll have to give the dock clones a try, i guess.
[23:56] <mongy> ThePendulum: /usr/share/applications/  and the desktop file make sure it has Network in the category
[23:56] <xubuntu049> hi all, who can help me
[23:57] <mongy> jadoe: there are a few launchers like cairo, docky and awn which are comparable to osx
[23:57] <ThePendulum> jadoe: Well, I agree
[23:58] <mongy> or there is dockbarx in the panel which does like windows
[23:58] <ThePendulum> mongy: What exactly do you mean with "make sure it has Netwerk in the category"? What category?


[09:46] <knome> what's wrong in irssi and the topic handling is that you don't get a diff :P
[18:21] <Unit193> knome: I got a diff.
[19:32] <chrisccoulson> bhearsum, what does http://www.apple.com/macosx/mountain-lion/security.html mean for firefox on the mac?
[19:32] <chrisccoulson> "For maximum security, you can install and run only apps from the Mac App Store" :(
[20:10] <mdeslaur> chrisccoulson: there's a switch in the control panel that users can toggle to turn that off
[20:10] <mdeslaur> chrisccoulson: well, until the next OS X release... : )
[20:11] <chrisccoulson> yep ;)
[20:43] <bjsnider> i suppose firefox will have to be put in the mac apps store


[08:33] <Seveas> yes
[10:51] <uebera||> Can someone point me to a bug report on Launchpad which already mentions/addresses the lack of hkps:// support for keyserver.ubuntu.com? TIA!
[12:24] <uebera||> I couldn't find one, so I opened this --> https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/1889210 (someone might want to confirm it.)
[20:25] <oerheks> bring wobbly windows back, please
[20:42] <Maik_aD> use the gnome shell extension :)


[00:00] <wgrant> That's probably not what you want.
[00:00] <wgrant> It's a combination of other open source software of many licenses. I would use Other/Open Source and specify that.
[04:55] <idnar> is there some way I can use ~/.bazaar/locations.conf to save me from typing out a full branch URL when I'm branching a new branch?
[04:56] <idnar> ie. I'd like to be able to do something along the lines of "cd .../Project; bzr branch test-code-refactoring-2244"
[05:03] <thumper> idnar: yes
[05:03] <thumper> hang on
[05:03] <thumper> idnar: what exactly do you want?
[05:04] <idnar> thumper: if I create a new branch locally, I can immediately do "bzr push" with no destination, because I've set push_location appropriately
[05:04] <thumper> ok
[05:04] <thumper> I have that set up
[05:04] <thumper> is that the magic you want?
[05:04] <idnar> thumper: I'd like something similarly convenient for new remote branches that I would like to branch locally
[05:04] <idnar> sort of the revers of bzr push / push_location
[05:04] <thumper> ah
[05:05] <idnar> *reverse
[05:05] <spiv> Not builtin, but there was a plugin along those lines.
[05:05] <thumper> no, don't know of anything
[05:05] <thumper> best ask in
[05:05] <thumper> #bzr
[05:05] <idnar> oh, oops, I actually meant to ask in #bzr originally
[05:05] <idnar> it's one window to the right
[05:05] <spiv> Would let you define a prefix along the lines of the lp: prefix.
[05:05] <spiv> I forget the name of it, though.
[05:12] <lifeless> spiv: bookmarks
[05:13] <lifeless> spiv: perhaps
[06:05] <allquixotic> Hi, is it possible to assign a separate maintainer to two different branches of a private project? Trivial use case: programmers want to commit to lp:~my_team/dev/trunk and artists want to commit artwork to lp:~/art_team/dev/trunk, while both branches "belong" to the same commercial project so they pick up the private branch status.
[06:05] <allquixotic> (and it doesn't make sense in terms of business rules to give the artists write access to the code, in this example)
[06:08] <mwhudson> allquixotic: sure, who can write to the branch is determined by the team ownership
[06:10] <allquixotic> mwhudson: How do I associate the second team with the project though?
[06:10] <mwhudson> allquixotic: you don't have to
[06:20] <allquixotic> mwhudson: I made a new team and tried to create a branch for my private project using that team, and it said I'm not allowed to create branches there. only the "maintainer" team is.
[06:21] <mwhudson> allquixotic: oh
[06:21] <mwhudson> allquixotic: well if you create it as a personal branch, you'll be able to reassign the branch to the new team afterwards
[06:21] <mwhudson> i think, anyway...
[06:21] <mwhudson> thumper: ^^
[06:28] <allquixotic> I was experimenting with trying to reassign a branch like mwhudson said: I made an empty private branch owned by the team that maintains the commercial project. E.g. lp:~dev-team/myproject/test. Then I went to edit details and changed the branch owner to the newly created team that is not the maintainer. Then I got this oops! (Error ID: OOPS-1580O531)
[06:28] <mwhudson> allquixotic: oops indeed
[06:29] <mwhudson> allquixotic: i guess you can have both your programmer team and your art team being subteams of the "maintainer team"
[06:30] <wgrant> Doesn't it just need a branch privacy policy defined for the art team too?
[06:30] <mwhudson> that's one approach, but if you have people who are members of both teams, that can get very confusing
[06:31] <allquixotic> The business rules that everyone has agreed upon is that the programmers can R/W all resources, but the art people can only R/W the artwork branch. So if the "maintainer" the project has to have R/W to everything in the project, that's fine.
[06:32] <allquixotic> I can of course make individuals a member of both teams if it isn't possible to give the development team R/W to the art team's branches.
[06:33] <allquixotic> it isn't a very huge team, so managing individual team memberships should be feasible.
[07:04] <allquixotic> mwhudson: So I'm blocked on this issue of team management as stated above. If I make the art team a subteam of the maintainer team, will that give the art team read-write access to the code branches too?
[07:06] <mwhudson> allquixotic: yes
[07:07] <allquixotic> hmm, that kind of defeats the purpose then...
[07:07] <mwhudson> allquixotic: seriously, i think you want to have an overall company team, which would be the privacy team in the project policy
[07:07] <mwhudson> allquixotic: and have art and developer subteams of that
[07:08] <mwhudson> and have the developer team be a subteam of the art team too, if they should be able to write to the art team branch
[07:08] <allquixotic> mwhudson: Following that pattern, the art team won't be able to write to the branches owned by the developer team?
[07:09] <mwhudson> allquixotic: correct
[07:09] <allquixotic> Great!
[07:09] <allquixotic> I'll try that.
[07:09] <mwhudson> allquixotic: but the company team will be subscribed to all branches you push, which will mean they can see the branches
[07:10] <allquixotic> mwhudson: So the one person owning the company team will be able to see all the subteams' branches... that's fine
[07:11] <allquixotic> As long as I don't add individuals to the top-level team, members of the two subteams won't be able to see one another's branches, is how I understand it
[07:11] <mwhudson> no
[07:11] <mwhudson> i thought you wanted everyone to see everyone elses branches?
[07:12] <allquixotic> oh -- you mean anyone who's a member of any subteam of the top-level team will have (at least) read-only access to all branches/
[07:12] <allquixotic> ?*
[07:12] <mwhudson> allquixotic: yes
[07:12] <allquixotic> that is actually not a problem
[07:12] <allquixotic> I think this will work. :)
[07:14] <allquixotic> mwhudson: To set up a proper "subteam", do I just set the team owner of a new team to be the top-level team?
[07:14] <mwhudson> allquixotic: no
[07:15] <mwhudson> you just invite/add the team like you would any other user
[07:15] <mwhudson> allquixotic: teams are people in launchpad
[07:18] <allquixotic> mwhudson: Yep, this is working! Thanks again for your help. :)
[07:19] <mwhudson> allquixotic: np

[13:47] <kshadeslayer> ah yes.. bigjools :)
[13:48] <salgado> chrisccoulson, done
[13:48] <chrisccoulson> salgado, thanks
[13:59] <bigjools> shadeslayer: are you talking about deletion

[13:59] <shadeslayer> bigjools: yeah
[14:01] <bigjools> shadeslayer: I missed the edge rollout today so it'll be available tomorrow at ~0800 UTC
[14:05] <shadeslayer> bigjools: ok :)
[14:05] <shadeslayer> no problem :P

[15:44] <salgado> nigelbabu, that's a DNS error, but I can connect just fine to api.edge.lp.net
[15:44] <nigelbabu> something only at my end?
[15:44] <salgado> may be a problem with your ISP's DNS server; hopefully temporary
[15:45] <nigelbabu> ajmitch had the same problem on ubuntuwire servers
[15:45] <nigelbabu> he was running it for me there initially
[15:45] <wgrant> Their DNS is completely unrelated, except for being also hosted in London,.
[15:46] <nigelbabu> wgrant: so where is the problem?
[15:46] <nigelbabu> mine or lp?
[15:46] <wgrant> nigelbabu: Probably yours.
[15:46] <nigelbabu> wgrant: how come I'm getting the same error he hit on ubuntuwire then (the dns won't be related at all)
[15:47] <wgrant> nigelbabu: It's working fine for me.
[15:47] <nigelbabu> hitting api.edge.launchpad.net on my browser gives me Request is missing an OAuth consumer key.
[15:47] <wgrant> That's normal.
[15:47] <nigelbabu> which means dns is resolving?
[15:48] <nigelbabu> wgrant: what do you make of http://paste.ubuntu.com/424641/ ?
[15:49] <wgrant> nigelbabu: dig api.edge.launchpad.net
[15:50] <nigelbabu> wgrant: erm dig?

[15:56] <wgrant> nigelbabu: Please.
[15:57] <nigelbabu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/424645/
[15:57] <wgrant> nigelbabu: So, there's nothing wrong on Canonical's end.
[15:58] <wgrant> And your local DNS server is returning SERVFAIL.
[15:58] <nigelbabu> what? where?
[15:59] <wgrant> Line 3 of your first paste.
[15:59] <wgrant> Er, line 4.
[16:00] <nigelbabu> Now its NOERROR

[18:04] <piju> bigjools; i want to delete my PPA at launchpad account
[18:04] <piju> my pkg is broken
[18:04] <bigjools> fta: yeah,all the DC machines get commandeered to push CDs out
[18:04] <bigjools> piju: patience
[18:04] <piju> bigjools; tq
[18:14] <maxb> oh, *that's* what they're doing
[18:16] <maxb> piju: Why would you want to delete your entire archive just because a package in it was broken? That makes no sense.
[18:17] <piju> the pkg is obsolete
[18:17] <maxb> So delete the package, not the entire PPA
[18:18] <piju> how?
[18:18] <piju> my entire PPA only have 1 pkg
[18:19] <maxb> From the root page of the PPA, click on "View package details" (top right), and then "Delete packages" (top right)
[18:20] <piju> maxb; how can i delete the pkg folder ?
[18:20] <maxb> Explain what you mean by "pkg folder"
[18:21] <piju> all PPA names
[18:21] <maxb> I don't understand
[18:21] <piju> delete packages is only deleting the pkg
[18:21] <maxb> yes....
[18:21] <maxb> so what?
[18:21] <piju> i want to delete to url to the pkg
[18:22] <maxb> Paste this url
[18:22] <piju> my archieve
[18:22] <piju> sorry archive
[18:23] <maxb> Why do you care?
[18:23] <piju> yes i do
[18:24] <thopiekar> hi I'm new in bzr and get this message when pushing my code to my "branch".. http://pastebin.com/1LR1RkJt
[18:24]  * thopiekar has just used svn before
[18:29] <salgado> thopiekar, have you registered your ssh key in Launchpad?
[18:36] <thopiekar> jep
[18:37] <thopiekar> also worked with ppa's that's why I needed the ssh key..
[18:37] <thopiekar> here I want to push https://code.launchpad.net/~thopiekar/mopedix/trunk and my profile https://launchpad.net/~thopiekar
[18:38] <salgado> thopiekar, have you done a 'bzr launchpad-login'?
[18:38] <maxb> thopiekar: You do not need an SSH key to work with PPAs. You need a GPG key for that. They're quite different.
[18:38] <thopiekar> yep
[18:38] <maxb> eugh, edge is sloooow
[18:39] <thopiekar> maxb: hmm I'll check my profile
[18:39] <maxb> right, you do have a ssh key there.
[18:40] <maxb> Run "sh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>- it should print "No shells on this server" - if it doesn't, your basic ssh communication isn't working
[18:40] <thopiekar> got the ssh key also here on my pc
[18:40] <thopiekar> http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/2489/plasmadrop2imageshack96.png
[18:40] <maxb> sorry, that's "ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[18:41] <thopiekar> thopiekar@thopiekar-ubuntu:~/Projekte/mopedix$ ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>-> Permission denied (publickey).
[18:41] <maxb> Right, so we have eliminated bzr as part of the problem
[18:43] <thopiekar> maxb: what about the message on page https://code.launchpad.net/~thopiekar : lp:mopedix -> This branch has not been pushed to yet.
[18:46] <maxb> thopiekar: None of the keys visible in your "Passworter und Verschlusselung" are the same as the key you have registered in your launchpad profile
[18:52] <l3on> Hi all, did bzr stop to work?
[18:52] <l3on> ah no sorry, it's just damed slow!
[18:52] <thopiekar> maxb: huch. ok so the problem is that I need to update my ssh key?
[18:52] <thopiekar> l3on: what?
[18:55] <maxb> thopiekar: Correct. You need to have a ssh private key locally corresponding to a public key registered on your launchpad profile
[18:55] <thopiekar> maxb: thank you for helping me
[18:55] <thopiekar> :)
[19:07] <Tigeli> aargh,  "Sorry, there was a problem connecting to the Launchpad server. "
[19:07] <Tigeli> :D
[19:07] <persia> This is likely to be a semi-persistent issue for the next several hours, due to increased load.
[19:07] <atarixle> that's what me broght here
[19:08] <tsimpson> just think of it as a release day holiday
[19:11] <atarixle> what the hell in a "BadAtom" Error? does anyone know?
[19:29] <blackxored> what's wrong with launchpad.net??
[19:29] <blackxored> network load?
[19:29] <beuno> blackxored, yes, Lucid was released
[19:29] <beuno> gazillion of hits all over the place
[19:30] <blackxored> beuno, you're kidding me, hehehe yeah I know, but is launchpad hosted on the same server that www
[19:30] <blackxored> ???
[19:30] <blackxored> I couldn't tell why there is so much launchpad load
[19:30]  * blackxored hopes isn't people mass-reporting bugs
[19:31] <beuno> blackxored, no, but Launchpad is used for many things, so the number of visits increases dramatically
[19:31] <beuno> and they do share datacenter
[19:31] <blackxored> beuno, interesting
[19:31] <beuno> lets just say it's a non-trivial amount of traffice  :)
[19:31] <blackxored> ok, I'll skip contributing to the ubuntu-manual for when the server is a little bit more responsive
[19:32] <beuno> blackxored, yeah, I'd say give it until tomorrow for things to calm down
[19:33] <blackxored> beuno, truly real ;) hehehe
[19:33] <ahasenack> beuno: so the "internal server error" that is back is now because of the release?
[19:34] <beuno> ahasenack, that would be my guess, but I'd talk to a losa about it
[19:34] <blackxored> I'm already on lucid through updates, I think I'll wait till monday for getting isos
[19:39] <CyberMan> all hi! there`s some problems with LaunchPad! Error 500
[19:39] <beuno> CyberMan, yes, it's currently under very heavy load
[19:40] <CyberMan> need to reseave CD with LTS)
[19:48] <CyberMan> now cannot cange password
[19:59] <vadi2> Are there any issues with vault.canonical.com being authorized with launchpad?
[19:59] <vadi2> For the last few days I've been trying to re-download a software order from the canonical store and it keeps giving me a blank page on the authorization.
[20:00] <beuno> vadi2, yes, we're working on some log-in issues
[20:00] <beuno> sorry about that
[20:00] <vadi2> okay
[20:00] <beuno> should be more stable in a little while
[20:03] <lysi> launchpad login failed: internal server error 500
[20:03] <vadi2> lysi: server overloaded
[20:03] <zigo-_-> Year, tried 8 times until I could login!
[20:04] <lysi> vadi2: thanks
[20:05] <lysi> btw. noscript error console output during login procedure: login.launchpad.net : potentially vulnerable to CVE-2009-3555
[20:06] <lysi> http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-3555
[20:15] <lysi> Launchpad Login Service says: There's no page with this address in the Launchpad Login Service service. Check that you entered the address correctly and try again. (Error ID: 1580roseapple67)
[20:23] <lysi> CVE-2009-3555 also for answers.launchpad.net and launchpadlibrarian.net
[20:38] <ringer> am having problems logging in to launchpad - anyone else? Or is it just me?
[20:38] <beuno> ringer, yes, the servers are under heavy load
[20:39] <ringer> beuno, hmm I wonder why ;)
[20:40] <beuno> ringer, no idea, completely unexpected
[20:41] <ringer> beuno, nothing to do with the launch of 10.04 then?
[20:41] <beuno> ringer, I'm kidding, of course it's due to 10.04  :)
[20:41] <ringer> :)
[20:42] <ringer> beuno, sorry - it's hard to tell on irc when people are being dead straight or not
[20:43] <beuno> ringer, yeah, apologies about that
[20:45] <ringer> beuno, while you're here, and I can't log on to ubuntu forums, do you have a script to right-click in Nautilus to open a terminal in that folder?
[20:46] <lysi> When I read the status header one might get the impression that lp is under heavy construction period. ;-) http://identi.ca/launchpadstatus
[20:46] <beuno> ringer, I do not
[20:47] <ringer> beu, ok - bit of a longshot wasn't it
[20:48] <ringer> beuno, hmm - could have sworn I typed b then e then u then TAB
[20:48] <yadudoc> Hi, Would someone know if bug tags are in use ? This is in relation to this Junior task bug --> https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots/+bug/407402
[20:49] <lysi> ringer: install extension nautilus-open-terminal
[20:50] <ringer> lysi, thanks - will now have to look up how to install extensions in N - linux is all good fun, eh?
[20:52] <JanC> ringer: tehre is a package
[20:53] <lysi> ringer: install via Synaptic, search for the package name: nautilus-open-terminal
[20:53] <JanC> just install it and restart nautilus
[20:53] <ringer> ok thanks guys
[20:53] <JanC> restart might require you to kill it (log out & back in works too of course)
[20:54] <lysi> ringer: http://library.gnome.org/users/user-guide/stable/gosnautilus-440.html.en
[20:55] <ringer> installing it now
[21:01] <ringer> JanC, lysi installed it but 'open in terminal' is only available through the file menu and not right-click. is that correct?
[21:02] <JanC> ringer: where do you right-click?
[21:03] <ringer> JanC, ona file in a folder - ah - maybe I need to right clcik on the folder
[21:03] <JanC> it's not there when you right-click a file
[21:03] <JanC> folder or free space
[21:03] <JanC> you can't open a file in a terminal  ;)
[21:03] <ringer> JanC, yeah - just found that out. Thanks.
[21:04] <ringer> and in doing all this, I just realised I missed an ebay item I was watching!
[21:36] <mkanat> Before I go searching--where in the Launchpad code is the duplicate-detection algorithm that's used when filing a bug?
[21:38] <mwhudson> mkanat: it's in postgres, mostly
[21:38] <mkanat> mwhudson: It's PL/SQL or something?
[21:38] <mwhudson> mkanat: it's a postgres full text search extension
[21:38] <mkanat> mwhudson: Ahhh. Could I see it somewhere?
[21:38] <mwhudson> (may not be an extension any more, actually)
[21:38] <mwhudson> mkanat: probably, you know about as much as me now
[21:39] <mkanat> mwhudson: Hahaha, okay.
[21:39] <mkanat> mwhudson: I want to implement the same thing generically in Bugzilla.
[21:39] <mwhudson> mkanat: well, it's pretty much the same algorithm as used for bug searcing
[21:40] <TresEquis> mhudson:  just uses the proposed summary as the search query?
[21:41] <mkanat> mwhudson: Oh, so perhaps I could just OR all the terms together and do a fulltext search and take the relevance.
[21:42] <zebastian_> how can i dl lubuntu lynx?
