[18:01] <djalmafilho> please help me with compilation and build .deb package  of PHP on ubuntu.
[18:02] <_Marcus> tanath: You have to start over, without all the programs you have on right now.
[18:02] <cautious911> i like this kernel
[18:02] <holly_molly> baz sorry becouse i try new soft
[18:02] <iceroot> cautious911: with root-exploits... great
[18:02] <tanath> _Marcus, arch has differences, like good apps i like in repos already, and more up to date..
[18:02] <n1x4> New whitehat forum up... Come join us www.hackslash.info
[18:02] <cautious911> it has barely any restrictions plus im used to it
[18:02] <_Marcus> tanath: Well then use Arch :L
[18:02] <bazhang> n1x4, wrong channel for that
[18:02] <_Marcus> tanath: Anyway, I got to go.
[18:02] <iceroot> djalmafilho: why not using ubuntu from the repos?
[18:02] <vit_o> I can't login with unity 3d because I disabled unity with ccsm, and now i'm not able to reset it. can someone help me?
[18:03] <cautious911> okay well im going to review those links ^_^
[18:03] <Escherial> does anyone happen to know why kate's menus shuffle around sometimes in ubuntu 11.10? my "File" menu is now on the righthand side, even though it started out on the left
[18:03] <tanath> vit_o, log into another desktop and fire up ccsm and undo what you did?
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> vit_o: try:  compiz -reset
[18:03] <cautious911> i may do a upgrade to lts
[18:03] <Neldogz> So i did something totally dumb and accidentally deleted 2 folders from the Terminal within Ubuntu 11.10.. Is there any way to recover these folders besides scapel or photorec?
[18:04] <vit_o> tanath, ActionParsnip , already done. no results!
[18:04] <tanath> ActionParsnip, there is no compiz -reset. you're prolly thinking compiz --replace
[18:04] <holly_molly> how send direct messages?
[18:04] <Neldogz> actually i dont even think scapel or photorec can recover folders only files =(
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> tanath: yeah that double minus single minus stuff gets annoying
[18:04] <bazhang> holly_molly, /msg nick hello    but ask first
[18:04] <zykotick9> Neldogz: i doubt photorec can do anything with the "folder", files inside maybe.  i've never tried scapel.  good luck.
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> Neldogz: try foremost
[18:05] <tanath> ActionParsnip, also the fact that it reloads compiz without resetting settings
[18:05] <cautious911> oh i forgot to mention im on ubuntu netbook remix
[18:05] <djalmafilho> iceroot: because I use ubuntu 10.04 server and I don't have the last php version on repo, and I would like build to update others servers with the same dist version
[18:05] <cautious911> which most distros dont really support my netbook as well as 9.04
[18:05] <bazhang> cautious911, and its not supported any longer
[18:05] <cautious911> haha see what i mean thats the main reason for wanting this kernel
[18:05] <vit_o> tanath, so you say that just replace it ?
[18:05] <cautious911> because it knows my netbook
[18:05] <trasp> anyone here that is familiar with configurating dovecot/postfix? I've run into a problem without a clear idea of what's wrong
[18:05] <tanath> vit_o, yes, it replaces the existing window manager, even if that's compiz
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> vit_o: what is the output of:   lsb_release -sc
[18:06] <tanath> vit_o, you can run it in the alt+f2 dialog
[18:06] <iceroot> djalmafilho: and why you need the latest php version?
[18:06] <holly_molly> baz when I need write to select person what I need /msg nick?/??
[18:06] <iceroot> trasp: #postfix
[18:06] <bazhang> holly_molly, support is in this channel, not via PM
[18:06] <trasp> iceroot, aight :)
[18:06] <vit_o> ActionParsnip, oneric
[18:06] <Neldogz> ActionParsnip: will foremost recover the folder in its entireity?
[18:06] <bazhang> holly_molly, and you have not asked a clear question her e yet
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> vit_o: http://www.webupd8.org/2011/10/things-to-tweak-after-installing-ubuntu.html    shows how to reset compiz
[18:07] <tanath> vit_o, there's a handy app called compiz-fusion that can do that for you too
[18:07] <holly_molly> I see,
[18:07] <Escherial> is there a better place to put unity's launcher bar? it's kind of annoying having it pop out of the left every time i reach to select a file in my IDE
[18:07] <tanath> vit_o, sorry, fusion-icon
[18:07] <djalmafilho> iceroot: to use with nginx and php-fom, and last bug fixes
[18:07] <holly_molly> Action provided me about bridge connection
[18:07] <holly_molly> vs NAT
[18:07] <iceroot> djalmafilho: and the first ones are not working with the version from 10.04?
[18:07] <tanath> vit_o, also links to ccsm
[18:08] <bazhang> holly_molly, and you said you want to change mac address, but why
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> holly_molly: ask in #vbox and they can tell you more
[18:08] <holly_molly> I first time on iRC dear)
[18:09] <holly_molly> #vbox ok
[18:09] <holly_molly> thanks 2 buz and to Action
[18:09] <cautious911> can anyone direct me how to install tar.gz files
[18:10] <vit_o> ActionParsnip, i've already done that. just errors and warn. when the terminal runs it seems all ok, but if i restart nothing change and the problem is still there.
[18:10] <djalmafilho> iceroot: yes, works, but not the last version 5.4
[18:10] <trasp> iceroot,  I realized that this problem isn't strictly a postfix-problem,  so I suppose I'll have to knock my head to the wall some more ;)
[18:10] <bazhang> cautious911, check th e eolupgrades link if you want support
[18:10] <iceroot> djalmafilho: building php by hand is a bad idea because you dont get security updates
[18:10] <stat1c_void> still need help with debugging zeitgeist (well, python really). I've built a non-stripped version of python-xapian, but python2.7-dbg still doesn't want to load _xapian.so: "undefined symbol: Py_InitModule4_64" - as I understand it means that _xapian.so is built against different Python.h or smth...
[18:10] <vit_o> tanath, so you suggest to replace ccsm or install the other app?
[18:10] <iceroot> trasp: without usefull details we cant help
[18:11] <djalmafilho> iceroot: even download it direct from php.net ?
[18:11] <iceroot> djalmafilho: you dont get security updates by the update manager
[18:12] <zykotick9> Neldogz: problem is, directories/folders aren't real, they're just virtual markings to the filesystem, and you deleted those ;)  The files may physically be left on the filesystem, but the directory stuff is gone.
[18:12] <Neldogz> zykotick9: thank you
[18:13] <Neldogz> Does anyone have a copy of the /user/share/themes folder they can send me? If i restore that at least I could start fixing my system
[18:14] <djalmafilho> iceroot: You think that I should use the version of php from repo ?
[18:14] <iceroot> djalmafilho: yes
[18:14] <iceroot> djalmafilho: always try to use software from the repos
[18:15] <sipior> zykotick9: at the risk of appearing pedantic, it's important to note that a directory is just a file, not "virtual markings to the filesystem", and so can be recovered just as any other file (or not recovered, depending on the damage :-)
[18:15] <djalmafilho> iceroot: but if my LTS version have five years, I will use the old version of PHP during this period.
[18:16] <iceroot> djalmafilho: old = not bad, old = stable, old = fewer security issues
[18:16] <iceroot> djalmafilho: i dont get why people always need the newest version
[18:16] <zykotick9> sipior: are you aware of any method to recover the deleted "folder" file?  would be handy.  as a sidenote: i recently learned that not everything in unix is a file, sorta shattered my world view ;)
[18:17] <zykotick9> sipior: i figured folders where file metadata?
[18:18] <iceroot> zykotick9: what is not a file on unix?
[18:18] <sipior> zykotick9: Plan9 is closer to the "everything a file" ideal.
[18:18] <sipior> iceroot: network interfaces
[18:19] <sipior> zykotick9: recovering the folder is just the same as recovering any other file, assuming you have the inode/vnode, etc.
[18:19] <iceroot> crw-rw-rwT  1 root root 10, 200 Mär 14 00:07 tun
[18:19] <iceroot> what is c and T?
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> iceroot: newer features to be taken advantage of etc
[18:19] <llutz> iceroot: character device with sticky-bit set
[18:20] <zykotick9> iceroot: ... i'm totally drawing a blank on what the example that i saw was... it was sorta obvious after i saw it too, wasn't nic that's for sure
[18:20] <LucidGuy> Got me 3 older 1tb drives in a linux software raid5.  Thinking of purchasing an additional two 1tb drives and rebuild a new raid5 md device using the three old and two newer drives.  Should I be concerned that the new 2 drives will be newer models and by different manufacturers?
[18:21] <sipior> LucidGuy: not really, unless the drives themselves are of poor quality, of course.
[18:21] <pushpop> Hey yo, wierd issue suddly my home partition fills up
[18:21] <pushpop> we are talking gigabyptes in the matter for a few minutes
[18:22] <LucidGuy> sipior, thats what I was thinking.
[18:22] <zykotick9> pushpop: what's taking up the space?  from ~ try "du -sh *" to get an idea
[18:23] <ubuntu__> ragazzi ho un problema grave
[18:23] <trasp> iceroot, well.. All I really can say is that I can send mails locally and they reach my Maildir-folder when I telnet smtp at localhost:25, but I can't get them from the internet as it seems, and dovecot doesn't show up in "sudo ps -a | grep dovecot" even though I don't get any errormessages when starting the service
[18:23] <ubuntu__> sono andato ad istallare ubuntui
[18:23] <ubuntu__> e al riavvio mi esce no partition detect
[18:23] <pushpop> zykes-:  like a du -sh /home/user ?
[18:23] <pushpop> zykotick9: :  like a du -sh /home/user ?
[18:23] <iceroot> trasp: you are starting it with service oder /etc/init.d/?
[18:23] <lapion> perfavore hable englesi
[18:23] <trasp> iceroot, tried both :/
[18:23] <zykotick9> pushpop: sure, if your user is called "user" ;)
[18:23] <pushpop> =P
[18:24] <iceroot> llutz: thanks for the info, never heard of character devices
[18:24] <llutz> iceroot: http://bashshell.net/file-permissions-and-attributes/understanding-linux-file-types/
[18:24] <pushpop> zykotick9: its taking a while
[18:24] <trasp> it warns me when I try init.d, so I tried service, same prob
[18:24] <llutz> trasp: grep log_path /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
[18:25] <zykotick9> pushpop: actually NO.  that doesn't work nearly as well!  "cd ~" then run the command - so you can see what folder in your home dir is hogging space
[18:25] <trasp> llutz, all commented out
[18:25] <trasp> Suppose I'll uncomment it?
[18:25] <iceroot> llutz: usefull link, thanks
[18:25] <llutz> trasp: to get logs, yes. logs are evident to track down issues
[18:25] <Tiktalik> Hello. I'm running Xubuntu 11.10 and when I try to open alsamixer, I get the following error: "cannot open mixer: no such file or directory"

[18:27] <ubuntu__> guy, i have a big problem, after thae i installated ubuntu, when i restart my pc, it show me : no partition detected
[18:27] <zykotick9> pushpop: "du -sh *" was the command?
[18:27] <trasp> llutz, Okay, so what am I looking for?
[18:28] <pushpop> yes
[18:28] <llutz> trasp: errors?

[18:28] <cautious911> iceroot: would i be able to install those on top of my distro now?
[18:28] <zykotick9> pushpop: and if you "ls" do you see anything?
[18:28] <cautious911> iceroot: im trying to avoid a fresh install
[18:28] <dazzel> is there an irc channel for luks and cryptsetup questions?
[18:29] <pushpop> yeap
[18:29] <zykotick9> pushpop: "du -h"
[18:29] <iceroot> cautious911: install what?
[18:29] <cautious911> iceroot: like i said im on netbook so i need netbook ubuntu this last distro is 10.4
[18:29] <Tiktalik> ..nevermind, it appears my soundcard has spontaneously stopped working.
[18:29] <trasp> Hm, no log shows up, seems like dovecot isn't starting at all even though I get a pid?
[18:29] <ubuntu__> who help me?
[18:29] <Tiktalik> this is not an ubuntu problem.
[18:29] <Tiktalik> carry on
[18:29] <pushpop> zykotick9:  alot of stuff
[18:30] <pushpop> heh
[18:30] <llutz> trasp: /usr/sbin/dovecot -n
[18:30] <iceroot> cautious911: netbook remix is called unity now
[18:30] <zykotick9> pushpop: the number at the very end is the size of your folder
[18:30] <cautious911> unity?
[18:30] <zykotick9> pushpop: du -sh would be humanreadable
[18:30] <trasp> llutz, wow! Here's the errors ^
[18:30] <lapion> cautious911, you can only upgrade to 10.4-> 12.4 the coming month
[18:30] <trasp> ^^
[18:30] <cautious911> can i get that at pendrive linux
[18:30] <iceroot> cautious911: default deskton since 11.10!?
[18:30] <cautious911> damn
[18:30] <trasp> now I can fix stuff atleast
[18:30] <trasp> thanks
[18:31] <pushpop> zykotick9: I have other disks mount to directories in home
[18:31] <pushpop> so not accurate
[18:31] <pushpop> hehe
[18:31] <cautious911> iceroot: linux unity
[18:31] <lapion> cautious911, 10.4 == lts and 12.4 == lts, upgrade from lts to lts is possible\
[18:31] <iceroot> !unity | cautious911
[18:31] <cautious911> oooooo
[18:31] <zykotick9> pushpop: i see...  ummmm... sorry i gots nothin'
[18:32] <iceroot> cautious911: its something like the old netbook remix
[18:32] <lapion> cautious911, 12.4 is out this April
[18:32] <tanath> can someone explain this? http://postimage.org/image/e2ro5nbnr/ i just got the current kernel to boot in oneiric and when i logged in i got that popup.
[18:32] <cautious911> i understand bots!
[18:33] <lapion> cautious911, most of us are not bots
[18:33] <cautious911> rofl
[18:33] <cautious911> i just tried to tab your name
[18:33] <cautious911> i gotta switch to win7
[18:33] <new_ubuntu> help me, when i restart my pc, it show me : no partition detected
[18:34] <pushpop> How do you clear .xsession-errors
[18:34] <tanath> it looks like it's saying it wants to move ~ to ~/Music ...
[18:35] <dazzel> pushpop, rm .xession-errors
[18:35] <dazzel> pushpop, or echo "" > .xsession-errors
[18:35] <lapion> cautious911, you have a nettop with 10.4 installed ?
[18:36] <lapion> cautious911, if you wait till april you can upgrade it to the newest nettop version of ubuntu 12.4
[18:36] <djalmafilho> iceroot: When there are updates of php package on ubuntu 10.04 for example, they are only security  fixes or also bug  fixes ?
[18:36] <lapion> cautious911,  without an installation media, just over the internet
[18:41] <new_ubuntu>  help me, when i restart my pc, it show me : no partition detected
[18:43] <llutz> pushpop: "> ~/.xsession-errors"
[18:43] <pushpop> got it thx
[18:45] <BillyIsBack> hi guys
[18:46] <BillyIsBack> 1st, why can I not see the list of contacts on the right side of the window???
[18:46] <BillyIsBack> i am using empathy
[18:48] <zykotick9> llutz: omg, that's cool.  Thanks I've never seen that before.
[18:48] <tanath> can someone explain this? http://postimage.org/image/e2ro5nbnr/ i just got the current kernel to boot in oneiric and when i logged in i got that popup. be nice to have some context. it looks like it's saying it wants to move ~ to ~/Music ... o_O
[18:50] <lapion> tanath, well you should be over in #ubuntu+1
[18:51] <lapion> oops sorry.. you are talking about oneiric
[18:51] <tanath> lapion, yes, lol
[18:52] <tanath> lapion, i held off on upgrading for a while...
[18:52] <lapion> strange situation however I've had worse
[18:52] <escott> tanath, you user-dirs.dirs file is non-standard it just wants to know if it should replace your user-dirs.dirs with a standard form of the file
[18:52] <tanath> lapion, thing is, i don't know why language 'changed' or what exactly it wants to do
[18:53] <tanath> escott, that's not even close to what it looks like it wants to do o_O
[18:53] <escott> tanath, if you like your .config/user-dirs.dirs the way it is simply say don't ask again
[18:53] <lapion> I am still on 11.04.. holding off hoping shuttleworth changes his mind about unity, or changes unity to something with a bit of a menu
[18:53] <escott> tanath, it says very clearly that existing content will not be moved
[18:53] <BillyIsBack> :-S
[18:53] <tanath> escott, i ended up saying leave them and didn't check don't ask again, since i didn't know what it wanted and no one was answering
[18:53] <Chartreuse> ver irc.rizon.net
[18:54] <tanath> escott, that's about the only thing it's clear about
[18:54] <tanath> escott, i had no idea what it was or why it popped up
[18:54] <BillyIsBack> ah AH!
[18:54] <BillyIsBack> Empathy is retar ded sometimes
[18:54] <tanath> escott, so... if i don't know the answer?
[18:55] <BillyIsBack> ok question. How to i get flash player installed on wine
[18:55] <escott> tanath, just look at .config/user-dirs.dirs if you like it as is then say "don't ask again and no" if you want a standard config with a Music folder in ~ then say yes (or modify your user-dirs.dirs directly) and then move any content you need to move to the new location
[18:55] <BillyIsBack> it gives me the famous sha1sum mismatch! Rename /home/billy/.cache/winetricks/flash/install_flash_player_ax.exe and try again.
[18:55] <tanath> BillyIsBack, 'winetricks flash' should do it
[18:56] <lapion> escott, if you check out the screenshot tanath made you would see that the system wants to move the files in ~/ to ~/Music
[18:57] <boo__> hi, I just installed ubuntu 11.04 to a usb drive, and just booted from it, but I'm having an error with my casper-rw filesystem.  whenever i click on it, it says "Cannot find /cow"
[18:57] <boo__> and it's sorta hard to use ubuntu without a filesystem =/
[18:57] <escott> tanath, it popped up because you don't have a ~/Music folder and it is expecting you to have one, so it says "maybe you changed your native language and the folder /home/tanath/Música should be renamed" but in your case you just have ~/ instead of ~/some_i18n_of_Music
[18:57] <tanath> lapion, it says contents won't be moved
[18:57] <lapion> boo__, you have a live system not an install on the usb stick
[18:58] <tanath> lapion, is certainly unclear though
[18:58] <tanath> escott, i do have a Music folder
[18:58] <boo__> lapion: but when I used the usb-stick install tool it asked if I wanted to create a partition to store my files, and I created one
[18:58] <lapion> boo__, it's stil a live system and not an install
[18:58] <escott> tanath, but your .config/user-dirs.dirs is not pointing at it. its pointing at ~. just look at user-dirs.dirs and it should make some more sense
[18:59] <tanath> escott, it's just that i kept having permissions issues with it, so i had to make it elsewhere and make ~/Music link to it
[18:59] <lapion> you have to bot from the media and then install to the usb stick
[18:59] <lapion> boo__, you have to bot from the media and then install to the usb stick
[19:00] <escott> tanath, yes but user-dirs.dirs does not indicate that music files should be put in ~/Music it indicates they go in ~. its asking you if that is what you want
[19:00] <tanath> escott, what would have caused that change? it was fine before
[19:00] <lapion> boo__, bot=boot
[19:01] <tanath> escott, you're right though. music path was changed in .config/user-dirs.dirs to ~ for some reason
[19:01] <escott> tanath, it may not have been correct before, something else may have triggered it to check that the dirs match the language and in doing so its flagging the directory. just figure out how you want it to be configured and configure it as such in user-dirs.dirs
[19:02] <tanath> escott, yeah, i edited the file back to ~/Music. just wish i knew what happened
[19:02] <tanath> escott, ty though
[19:02] <escott> tanath, maybe you logged in one time without a ~/Music and instead of creating on (or maybe b/c it tried to create one and failed) it had to fallback to updating user-dirs.dirs to point to ~ who knows
[19:03] <tanath> escott, it points to music on another partition. may have been unmounted at some point
[19:05] <Escherial> hey, does anyone happen to know how to disable the icon of text files from becoming a summary of the text?
[19:05] <escott> tanath, you might want to file a bug on the pop-up it is rather confusing and none of the actions make much sense. why would i want to rename the file but NOT move the content?
[19:06] <Fyodorovna> I have a ubuntu host and guest (virtualbox) and have forgotten the guest setup for a shared file with the host. I have it setup in settings at this point.
[19:07] <Fyodorovna> ah except that the guest is precise Doh wrong channel.
[19:07] <escott> Escherial, try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1220376 keep in mind you might need to use dconf instead of gconf
[19:08] <OOi> can somebody please help me?
[19:09] <kfizz> Two Ubuntu computers: server and client. I've set up server to share a few dirs (smb.conf: http://pastebin.com/hVRfG7zU) I've added the user kyle to the samba users and created a password, however when I try to access archive2 from the client computer, it won't accept the samba password for kyle on the server. Anyone notice anything wrong in the smb.conf?
[19:09] <hear_no> ask away 00i
[19:09] <tandoliga> hate when this happends, just installed ubuntu completely removed windows. Now I get some work where I got to heavily edit documents and images :(

[19:10] <escott> tandoliga, gimp? imagemagick?
[19:10] <tandoliga> tried gthumb but I dont see options like cut etc

[19:10] <OOi> why can't I update flash player for Google Chrome??? D:
[19:11] <Escherial> escott: i do appreciate the help
[19:11] <Escherial> i was more irritated at myself for not thinking to look in the obvious place, i suppose
[19:11] <escott> Escherial, nautilus is the name of the filemanager and it draws the icons on the desktop anything related to that check nautilus first
[19:12] <Escherial> escott: got it, makes sense. on a related note, kate prompts me to find an application when i try to invoke "open in file manager" on an item in the document browser...is there an executable for nautilus somewhere that i could point kate at, and if so where?
[19:12] <escott> tandoliga, the gimp will definitely have what you want, but some of the other image viewers will have some limited capabilities
[19:12] <Escherial> it'd be nice to be able to open folders in nautilus from kate
[19:13] <Escherial> never mind, whereis answered my question
[19:13] <escott> Escherial, kate is the kde editor and would expect to use the kde filemanager konqueror. if you are using unity/gnome try using gedit for a more consistent experience
[19:14] <jeek> What's the package the contains the posix4 library?
[19:14] <jeek> err, that contains, rather
[19:14] <WilsonBradley> can anyone help me remove speech_dispatch from Ubuntu? It has speakup & speakup_soft dependancies..
[19:14] <WilsonBradley> _  It's giving me errors and ubuntu wont boot now :-(
[19:14] <megalomix> hello everybody
[19:15] <megalomix> i don't know why my ubuntu is slooow
[19:15] <megalomix> how can i check what is the problem?
[19:15] <escott> WilsonBradley, boot to recovery and then remove those with sudo apt-get remove package_name
[19:16] <WilsonBradley> Recovery wouldn't boot.
[19:17] <WilsonBradley> Im in now .. let me try that command
[19:17] <escott> WilsonBradley, then boot a livecd and chroot in to remove it
[19:18] <snakeyyys> hey anyone around can give me a hand with forcing a user to only be allowed to rsync stuff down to his machine
[19:18] <escott> snakeyyys, over what protocol
[19:18] <megalomix> ??
[19:18] <WilsonBradley> root@Asus-Ubuntu:/home/wilson# sudo apt-get remove speech_dispatch

[19:19] <snakeyyys> I have setup in the authorized keys: command="rsync --server bla bla" {pub key} and when i run rsync from remote mahcine it works fine but ssh -v {host} says no auths methods left to try
[19:19] <escott> WilsonBradley, try speech-dispatcher

[19:20] <WilsonBradley> sorry
[19:21] <escott> snakeyyys, without knowing the bla bla i cant say what is happening but you probably want to configure the ssh server to only allow them to execute the rsync process
[19:22] <snakeyyys> command="rsync --server --sender -avz . /home/path/to/backup"
[19:22] <snakeyyys> escott that's the command I have
[19:24] <alsasounda> is SS--uominen a nazi?
[19:25] <snakeyyys> escott, in the auth.log I can see "Invalid user"
[19:26] <escott> snakeyyys, im not familiar with these --server --sender args, but you might look at the example "rrsync" script
[19:27] <snakeyyys> ok thanks anyways will take a look at that rrsync, anyone else in here that could shed some light?
[19:28] <danpsy> How can I revert back from the proprietary nvidia driver to the nouveau driver?  After installing the properitary driver, my resolution is massive and most things appear off screen now.
[19:28] <escott> snakeyyys, it looks like all you need to do is unpack rrsync into /usr/local/bin and then "The client uses "rsync -av -e ssh src/ server:dir/", and sshd on the server executes this program when .ssh/authorized_keys has 'command="..."'.
[19:29] <bwlang> i'm testing out 12.04... i get stuck during boot at init-bottom ... done  - ctrl-c does nothing, no virtual terminals, etc.  Any clues?
[19:29] <szal> bwlang: #ubuntu+1 please
[19:30] <bwlang> szal: ah didn't see it at the top ... thanks
[19:30] <snakeyyys> escott, :) cool
[19:32] <megalomix> is it possible to use ATI card without problem in linux?
[19:33] <ratcheer> megalomix: Yes, sometimes.
[19:33] <snakeyyys> escott have you got a link to it, found a ruby script but not sure if its the one you're referring to
[19:33] <megalomix> ratcheer, i tried official drviers and ubuntu rivers.....but the system goes slow after i change of the card
[19:33] <escott> snakeyyys, less `locate rrsync.gz` and the usage is about 20 lines down into the script
[19:34] <snakeyyys> escott, great thanks!
[19:34] <ratcheer> megalomix: Which official driver? Which Ubuntu? Which desktop environment?
[19:35] <korben> hello ppl
[19:35] <korben> i have an issue on an update of the midori package, can someone help me?
[19:35] <donsd> I can play an MP3 file with mplayer dir/title, but it plays in background. I would like to use command line to control. e.g. exit/pause.
[19:35] <megalomix> ratcheer, i download them from AMD website.... i have: sapphire hd 4870
[19:35] <megalomix> ubuntu 11.04
[19:35] <ratcheer> megalomix: Also, do you have ccsm installed?
[19:35] <megalomix> gnome
[19:36] <megalomix> ccsm ? hmmm no
[19:36] <megalomix> what is?
[19:36] <megalomix> ooh sorry
[19:36] <megalomix> compiz
[19:36] <megalomix> yes i have it
[19:36] <megalomix> it waste around 5-10% of CPU
[19:36] <nagarjuna> Hi how can i install fs-icons in ubuntu
[19:37] <escott> megalomix, downloading from ati is discouraged as you need to maintain kernel/driver compatibility and make sure your initrd is properly updated. apt  will manage those for you if you install through jockey
[19:37] <ratcheer> You could try installing package compizconfig-settings-manager. Then run it, and use it to unset Sync to Vblank OpenGL option. That helps a lot of people's performance.
[19:37] <nagarjuna> Hi how can i install fs-icons in ubuntu
[19:39] <bigio> !lista
[19:39] <Snicers-Work> why do groups of users usually only have 5 permissions in FTP servers instead of 7 like the owner (755 vs 775)?
[19:39] <llutz> Snicers-Work: default umask = 0022. thats why
[19:40] <korben> can somebody please help me with an update issue here?
[19:40] <Snicers-Work> I understand the technical reason, but what good is that? I have the issue where users can't upload then.
[19:40] <escott> Snicers-Work, because you dont want them to be able to write to the file unless they own it
[19:40] <st1> if I click the tiny triangle to expand folder in list view, and hold mouse pointer still, I can't click to collapse that folder, if I move 1px, then click works, is this controlled by nautilus or something else
[19:40] <Guest7887> what irc client do use under unity?
[19:40] <Snicers-Work> what about communal folders where a group of people need to uplaod to?
[19:41] <escott> Snicers-Work, then change it as you like
[19:41] <Snicers-Work> ok, but it is not bad practice to have a group set to 7 if you trust them all with adding and deleting files?
[19:42] <kfizz> Two Ubuntu computers: server and client. I've set up server to share a few dirs (smb.conf: http://pastebin.com/hVRfG7zU) I've added the user kyle to the samba users and created a password, however when I try to access archive2 from the client computer, it won't accept the samba password for kyle on the server. Anyone notice anything wrong in the smb.conf?
[19:43] <escott> Snicers-Work, even users you trust might inadvertently stomp on each others files without realizing it. A download b downloads A uploads modified B uploads modified
[19:43] <nagarjuna> hi can some one tell me how to install hud in ubuntu 11.10
[19:44] <Snicers-Work> I am in a server environment with backups and geeks. We constantly need to edit each others files.
[19:44] <ehsansn> Hi when Ubuntu fails connecting to a PPTP VPN it just says that the connection was failed , is there any way to findout the reason?like the username and password were wrong or ...
[19:44] <klmmlk> ehsansn, syslog can explain that to you ? take a look at /var/log/
[19:45] <escott> Snicers-Work, its up to you to configure how you want, but eventually it happens that someone overwrites someones change unless there is something to serialize that control. you might consider using a vcs instead of just trusting it all to ftp
[19:45] <nagarjuna> hi can some one tell me how to install hud in ubuntu 11.10
[19:46] <ballboy909> is there a user manual for #ubunto
[19:46] <escott> !manual | ballboy909
[19:46] <Snicers-Work> Yeah, looking to implement GIT later this year.
[19:46] <ballboy909> thanks ubttu
[19:47] <MonkeyDust> yo jurgentje
[19:47] <Snicers-Work> Is there a way to set the default group of a folder without GID or ACL?
[19:47] <llutz> Snicers-Work: chmod g+s dir
[19:47] <Snicers-Work> k
[19:47] <nagarjuna> some one tell me how to install hud in ubuntu 11.10
[19:47] <escott> Snicers-Work, there are lots of reasons to not use ftp especially if you plan to switch to something else later on
[19:48] <syral> :| u guys talk about lot of things i dont get
[19:48] <syral> but i have some Q to ask
[19:48] <Snicers-Work> Death to FTP I say.
[19:48] <escott> Snicers-Work, you probably want to be using ssh in some fashion so just teach people scp. its easier to use than ftp anyways
[19:48] <yairgo> If I run gnome-terminal it immediately closes.  I came across this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1684949 and using Alt+F2 got gnome-terminal to run with SHELL=/bin/sh but I can't get the terminal shortcut from applications -> accessories -> terminal to work.  inside of my /bin/sh shell if I type bash the output is Segmentation Fault, can anyone help?
[19:48] <ehsansn> thankyou syslog did say the reason although I didn't understand much from it
[19:48] <BillyIsBack> Sorry guys i was afk
[19:49] <jurgentje> yo MonkeyDust
[19:49] <Octobyte> syral, ask away
[19:49] <Snicers-Work> SCP is all CLI right?
[19:50] <escott> Snicers-Work, im sure there are guis you can just use sshfs
[19:50] <syral> ive installed gnome tweak, gnome user extention and som of extention as well
[19:50] <unop> Snicers-Work, it's a protocol -- not necessarily all a CLI interface
[19:50] <llutz> Snicers-Work: there's sftp too, lots of GUIs for this
[19:50] <syral> the most feutured extention is gnome app menu
[19:50] <avaneesh> hello
[19:50] <Snicers-Work> k
[19:50] <ratcheer> I have used scp with a gui, before.
[19:50] <syral> evin if i enabled it
[19:50] <escott> Snicers-Work, you might want to enable persistent ssh connections and auth keys as well
[19:50] <syral> it doesnt work
[19:51] <avaneesh> I wanted to ask if there is a channel for UBUNTU REMASTERING, or should I ask my doubts here?
[19:51] <syral> ive installed gnome tweak, gnome user extention and som of extention as well
[19:51] <syral> the most feutured extention is gnome app menu
[19:52] <syral> it doesnt work
[19:52] <syral> evin if i enabled it
[19:52] <FloodBot1> syral: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:52] <avaneesh> I wanted to ask if there is a channel for UBUNTU REMASTERING, or should I ask my doubts here?
[19:52] <escott> Snicers-Work, http://blogs.perl.org/users/smylers/2011/08/ssh-productivity-tips.html
[19:52] <syral> ok
[19:52] <yairgo> nevermind, I got it figured out.
[19:52] <BillyIsBack> So i have this problem : when I try to install flash 10 it gives me a "sha1sum mismatch! Rename /home/billy/.cache/winetricks/flash/install_flash_player_ax.exe and try again." message
[19:52] <Snicers-Work> Thank you all.
[19:53] <escott> BillyIsBack, and did you do what it told you to do?
[19:53] <BillyIsBack> could you please retype it i was afk sorrryyyyy
[19:54] <BillyIsBack> (I just scrolled up and was not able to find it
[19:54] <BillyIsBack> )
[19:54] <avaneesh> I wanted to ask if there is a channel for UBUNTU REMASTERING, or should I ask my doubts here?
[19:54] <escott> BillyIsBack, your message to us includes instructions that you are to follow. have you done so
[19:54] <escott> !alis | avaneesh i've never heard of one
[19:55] <esuave> would this work? alias find_file= find . -name "*$VAR*" -print
[19:55] <syral> Ive installed gnome shell, user shell extention, extention and gnome tweak
[19:55] <syral> some of them doesnt work,,, like gnome application menu... do u know what to do?
[19:55] <escott> esuave, that needs to be a function and you have some unicode in there
[19:55] <avaneesh> ubouttu: the thing is I am busy remastering Ubuntu 10.10 and I need to update the plymouth theme. needed a little help
[19:56] <esuave> escott: so what would be the correct way? if you dont mind
[19:56] <SlimG_> What do I do when libreoffice writer is still running after "kill -9 <pid>"?
[19:56] <WilsonBradley> How do I kill ?  Ubuntu:/boot/grub$ rmmod speakup_soft , ERROR: Module speakup_soft is in use
[19:56] <BillyIsBack> esuave: I dont know what it means
[19:56] <syral> was my question too silly to ask?
[19:56] <escott> esuave, an alias doesn't take arguments but you can define a bash function and then use the arguments in it
[19:56] <BillyIsBack> escott: Hey I do not know what it means
[19:57] <esuave> escott: ahh ok i see what your saying.. thank you
[19:57] <avaneesh> @escott - you know how to update alternatives in chroot?
[19:57] <escott> avaneesh, the same way you would do it as if you were logged in
[19:57] <escott> BillyIsBack,  Rename /home/billy/.cache/winetricks/flash/install_flash_player_ax.exe and try again.
[19:58] <escott> esuave, http://tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/sect_11_02.html
[19:58] <avaneesh> nope, the thing is initrd.lz is in the iso, so that never gets updated when I update-initramfs
[19:58] <BillyIsBack> escott: it says rename but what name should i rename it to?
[19:58] <escott> BillyIsBack, whatever you want you could also remove it
[19:58] <esuave> escott: ahh much appreciated! thanks
[19:59] <avaneesh> when I make changes to default.plymouth and update initramfs that happens only for the system, but the ISO's initrd.lz which is in /casper/ doesnt get updated, hence the default plymouth is shown
[19:59] <BillyIsBack> escott: I did delete the entire folder and even tried to replace the file with a newer version by modifying the name but it still gives me this error.
[19:59] <flybyray> where is the bug report for dpi / scaling ? in lucid lynx i can set up proper dpi resolution for my monitor, and this setting is recognized for example by evince to display letter/A4 in native size at 100% . i cant set this with newer ubuntu versions anymore. :( really anoying!
[19:59] <escott> !remaster
[20:00] <escott> avaneesh, i don't know much about what you are doing so i can only refer you to the above links
[20:00] <avaneesh> I have been through those links :(
[20:00] <syral> whom can i ask about gnome shell issues?
[20:00] <avaneesh> sigh, its ok will figure something out, thank you anyway
[20:00] <escott> BillyIsBack, then the file that is being downloaded is not the same as the file that ppa expects. perhaps adobe updated the file and the ppa has not been updated to reflect this
[20:01] <madero> ciao
[20:01] <BillyIsBack> hmm,, how to i update the ppa of winetricks then?
[20:01] <madero> !list
[20:01] <syral> just tell me if u cant answer or busy right now i can comeback later, just tell
[20:02] <ubuntu> spricht hier jemand deutsch?
[20:02] <llutz> !de | ubuntu
[20:02] <syral> whom can i ask about gnome shell issues? shall i wait or leave?
[20:02] <escott> !ask | syral
[20:02] <BillyIsBack> I have launch the updates manager and it does not have anything new
[20:02] <syral> ok ill do now@ ubuntu
[20:03] <syral> Ive installed gnome shell, user shell extention, extention and gnome tweak
[20:03] <syral> some of them doesnt work,,, like gnome application menu... do u know what to do?
[20:03] <BillyIsBack> escott:  I have launch the updates manager and it does not have anything new
[20:04] <BillyIsBack> *launched
[20:04] <escott> BillyIsBack, ppa's have issues. if you are using a ppa then you have to deal with some issues
[20:05] <escott> BillyIsBack, if you think the file you are downloading is the correct version and you want to override the sha1sum check you can compute your own sha1 with sha1sum filename and put that into the manifest for your winetricks
[20:07] <BillyIsBack> Well, what's happening is that the file that winetricks itself is downloading does not seem to be the right version. If what you said is the right answer, then could you please show me how to do that?
[20:07] <BillyIsBack> escott:  Well, what's happening is that the file that winetricks itself is downloading does not seem to be the right version. If what you said is the right answer, then could you please show me how to do that?
[20:07] <BillyIsBack> (sorry i keep forgetting)
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> syral: is it the same as a new user?
[20:08] <escott> BillyIsBack, run "sha1sum /home/billy/.cache/winetricks/flash/install_flash_player_ax.exe" and then open up the winetricks script and replace the current sha1sum with the what sha1sum outputs
[20:09] <syral> action :  mean the shell ? yes
[20:09] <syral> the same
[20:09] <Escherial> so, out of curiosity, why are the gimp's open/save dialogs always slightly wider than the screen
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> syral: what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[20:10] <Escherial> it's pretty annoying having to resize them every single time i open or save something, especially when the resize handle region is so small
[20:10] <BillyIsBack> escott: and where to I find the winetricks scripts? Thanks again fr your help!
[20:10] <escott> BillyIsBack, the script you are running
[20:10] <syral> oneiric
[20:11] <syral> action: oneirec
[20:11] <bardh> exit
[20:12] <syral> action: oneirec, ive installed gnome package to have gnome shell ofcourse and its very brilliant and then did as instruction to have app menu, didnt work
[20:13] <carli2> hi
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> syral: try pressing tab after you type 'action' ;)
[20:13] <syral> oh ok
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> syral: all I can suggest is you report a bug
[20:13] <syral> ActionParsnip, thanks
[20:13] <carli2> how can I automatically mount every removable device that is plugged into my computer?
[20:14] <Zaitzev> hey, I was doing an apt-get update, and got the results "libnautilus-extension1 nautilus nautilus-data", but also the errors "Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)" and "Unable to lock directory /var/cache/apt/archives/" - what do I need to do?
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> carli2: it should automount, did you safetly eject the device last time youremoved it, or did you just rip it out?
[20:14] <Zaitzev> I meant apt-get upgrade.
[20:14] <BillyIsBack> escott: let me try out these things and let you know how it goese
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: are you running updates, or do you have software centre open etc?
[20:14] <Zaitzev> no
[20:14] <escott> carli2, something like? udisks --enumerate | xargs -0 udisks --eject
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> !aptfix | Zaitzev
[20:15] <carli2> ActionParsnip: I don't have a graphical shell installed, the gadget should be automated
[20:15] <carli2> with removable device i mean usb flash drives.
[20:15] <Zaitzev> ActionParsnip: I'll try that and come back to you, thanks
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> carli2: but did you safetly remove it last time you used it?
[20:15] <carli2> ActionParsnip: as i said, i dont have nautilus installed, and I dont want to install nautilus
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> carli2: I never mentioned nautilus....
[20:16] <carli2> ActionParsnip: and /dev/sdb is there and ok. when i manually mount it, it works
[20:16] <dr3mro> hello , i need to make ubuntu run a script after i plug in my usb modem ... how to make that happen ?
[20:16] <Zaitzev> ActionParsnip: I did the above, and tried apt-get upgrade again. Same errors appear
[20:16] <carli2> ActionParsnip: but i want it automated
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> carli2: did you safe remove it / eject the device before you pulled it out last time it was in a system
[20:16] <Zaitzev> so there's an update for Nautilus it won't let me install, that's kinda funny..
[20:17] <syral> all guys, is there any way to learn linux developing  ? u guys are awesome
[20:17] <carli2> the problem with automount is that I dont know how to use wildcards
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: can you give the output of the command ubottu gave please, you can use http://pastie.org
[20:17] <Zaitzev> It didn't give ANY output
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> carli2: can you kindly answer my perfectly reasonable question please....
[20:18] <carli2> ActionParsnip: yes godammed, I'm not talking about ejecting something, I want a simple package that contains udev rules that mounts a file system into /media
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: ok if you run:  ps -ef | egrep 'dpkg|apt' | grep -v grep      is there any output?
[20:18] <Zaitzev> one sec
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> carli2: it flushes the caches and is quite relevant to the situation
[20:19] <Zaitzev> ActionParsnip: "egrep: dpkg|apt: No such file or directory"
[20:19] <carli2> ActionParsnip: why? there are no udev rules that do anything
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> carli2: if you add an entry in /etc/fstab   it will be used, or you can use a udev rule
[20:19] <escott> dr3mro, you'll probably need to write some udev rules check /etc/udev/rules for examples
[20:20] <dr3mro_> hello how to make ubuntu run a bash script after i plug in any hardware for example usb modem /
[20:20] <carli2> ActionParsnip: removable devices are removable. I need a set of udev rules. but are there udev rules I can use? (or do I have to write my own?)
[20:20] <llutz> dr3mro_: create a custom udev-rule for this
[20:20] <hydrox24> carli2: you might have to look at udev
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> carli2: you'll probably have to due to no gvfs,it may be installable in CLI, without desktop UI
[20:21] <dr3mro_> escott, llutz can you help me .. !!
[20:21] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: I just ran the command and it worked. Are you copying and pasting it?
[20:21] <Zaitzev> yes
[20:21] <carli2> ActionParsnip: yes, gvfs is installable. does it add udev rules?
[20:21] <llutz> dr3mro_: to get an idea thow that works http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=168221
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> carli2: it will watch for new devices etc, should make things nicer
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: ok try:     ps -ef | grep dpkg; ps -ef | grep apt
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: any output ?
[20:22] <Zaitzev> lol
[20:22] <Zaitzev> only some error about wrong flag or whatever
[20:22] <Zaitzev> let me paste you the output
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: cool

[20:23] <hydrox24> carli2: http://hackaday.com/2009/09/18/how-to-write-udev-rules/
[20:23] <llutz> ActionParsnip: hint: pgrep 'apt|dpkg'
[20:23] <syral> ActionParsnip, thanks ive installed the extention from offecial gnome shell extention home page
[20:23] <syral> it works
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> llutz: egrep works here but cool
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> syral: nice
[20:24] <dr3mro_> escott, llutz will udev rules run the bash script ?
[20:24] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: try with pgrep instead
[20:24] <syral> https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/6/applications-menu/ just prissed on and it worked immediatly
[20:24] <Zaitzev> wait a minute
[20:24] <llutz> dr3mro_: yes, use the RUN+="sh yourscript"
[20:24] <Zaitzev> ActionParsnip: I ran the command using root user
[20:25] <Zaitzev> got some output now
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: ok, what you got?
[20:25] <Zaitzev> ActionParsnip http://pastie.org/3603555
[20:25] <nox-Hand> Hey guys
[20:26] <Zaitzev> hm, mailutils? I can't remember that..
[20:26] <wdd> ##subreddit FTW
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: try:   sudo kill 24018
[20:27] <Zaitzev> i did already ;)
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: and is it gone?
[20:27] <syral> how can i reenable plymouth boot screen after i foolishly disable it? any idea?
[20:27] <Zaitzev> ActionParsnip: About that non-working output earlier, I bet it has to do with the .bashrc..
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> syral: how did you disable it?
[20:27] <Zaitzev> ActionParsnip: and yes it's gone, I'll try an update now and see if it helps
[20:28] <nox-Hand> I changed my login manager from LightDM to GDM, but now no manager boots up. Unfortunately, I am on a tablet with no method for external keyboard except bluetooth, and I am not aware of a way to pair a bluetooth keyboard without the X-based config. Now it does not boot up any window manager at boot.
[20:28] <Zaitzev> there we go
[20:28] <Zaitzev> ActionParsnip: thanks a bunch :)
[20:28] <syral> i wrote sudo plymouth.config.disabled
[20:28] <nox-Hand> I can mount the file system remotely, and edit files there. What might I edit to make it boot up lightdm again at boot (as it allows me to add a soft keyboard)
[20:28] <nox-Hand> tty1 is not handy for a touchscreen with no keyboard :)
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: nice, yeah that process was locking the packages as only ONE process can access the packages
[20:28] <syral> ActionParsnip, i wrote sudo plymouth.config.disabled
[20:29] <Zaitzev> ActionParsnip: Got an error installing tho :P
[20:29] <[]tsukasa[]> i'm mounting a nas drive in fstab, not sure if this is the issue but I have it mapped to a folder via cifs and can't seem to change file owner away from root. I'm I missing a trick?
[20:29] <Zaitzev> ActionParsnip: http://pastie.org/3603572 hehe
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: then there are still apt-get or dpkg processes running
[20:30] <nox-Hand> I guess the question is, when I do a dpkg-reconigure gdm and change my default login manager frorom lightdm to gdm, and that doesn't work at boot (but starting from a terminal (sudo gdm) does) ... what file do I edit to toggle it back to how it was?
[20:30] <Zaitzev> ActionParsnip: if you look at the process-list, wouldn't the two dpkg-preconfigure --apt.. be the culprits?
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> []tsukasa[]: add extra options to the mount
[20:30] <hydrox24> tsaknorris: can you paste your fstab options here? also make sure that the empty folder it is going to be mounted in has the correct permissions.
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: anything like that needs killing
[20:30] <nox-Hand> Without it I am facing a reinstlal, which is quite a bother on the hacked tablet :P
[20:30] <hydrox24> []tsukasa[]: can you paste your fstab options here? also make sure that the empty folder it is going to be mounted in has the correct permissions.
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: I then recommend you run:  sudo apt-get -f install   so you know all is ok
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> nox-Hand: if you install gdm, doesn't it set itself as the default?
[20:31] <Zaitzev> there we go, it went through fine now, thanks again ActionParsnip.
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> Zaitzev: np man. That's why I asked the first question I hit you with :)
[20:32] <[]tsukasa[]> hydrox24: i'm just using //ipaddress/sharename /svn cifs username=name,password=password 0 0
[20:32] <Zaitzev> :]
[20:32] <nox-Hand> ActionParsnip: I gather it does. The issue is that now it boots nothing at bootup (not sure why) and just starting gdm manually was fine up until now. Then I got in the pickle that my bluetooth device reset (out of power) so networkmanager needs a new keyboard paired
[20:32] <nox-Hand> ActionParsnip: And since I have *no* keyboard on the touchscreen tablet, I can't even log in to the tty1 it boots up with.
[20:32] <MarKsaitis> hey. on a fresh ubuntu server precise, what is the cmd to setup sshd? any quick wizzards in terminal? openssh package is already installed
[20:33] <MarKsaitis> pls help
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> MarKsaitis: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[20:33] <escott> MarKsaitis, openssh-server and #ubuntu+1
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> MarKsaitis: what else do you need to setup?
[20:33] <nox-Hand> ActionParsnip, I can, however, mount the filesystem. I have it open now, and figured if I toggle the right file I would be able to reboot into Ubuntu and make the tablt boot with X so I can use virtual keyboard.
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> MarKsaitis: oh yeah Precise in #ubuntu+1
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> escott: thanks
[20:34] <ActionParsnip> nox-Hand: you can add a command to run startx as another user using:  su -c
[20:34] <[]tsukasa[]> hydrox24: reading up and I assume I need to override the uid and gid ?
[20:35] <MarKsaitis> ActionParsnip, openssh-server was already selected in setup of the os
[20:35] <escott> MarKsaitis, sounds like an issue go to the #ubuntu+1 channel
[20:35] <TheSimkin> why isn't openssh-server part of the default anyhow?
[20:35] <TheSimkin> seems silly that it's not
[20:36] <TheSimkin> and by default, what is the password for root? or is it always randomized?
[20:36] <escott> !root | TheSimkin
[20:36] <TheSimkin> escott: how do you use sudo through sftp?
[20:37] <syral> ubottu, but sudo cant modify root file system, can it?
[20:37] <escott> TheSimkin, you can't
[20:37] <JohnNapster> hello
[20:37] <TheSimkin> escott: and rsync?
[20:37] <escott> TheSimkin, its not even a meaningful question
[20:37] <TheSimkin> escott: it is, what if you want to backup a system remotely.
[20:37] <syral> ubottu, loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
[20:37] <TheSimkin> backing up  without root privileges would be retarded.
[20:38] <escott> TheSimkin, then set yourself up an authkey for root
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> TheSimkin: trasfer the files over then SSH over and move as you need
[20:38] <nox-Hand> ActionParsnip: Might I be able to set that up in a script file somewhere, so it runs as root (just lightdm as root at bootup)? I have root file system access, but not a booted Ubuntu.
[20:39] <nox-Hand> ActionParsnip: I mounted my root file system from WebOS, and have terminal access.
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> nox-Hand: you could add the command in /etc/rc.local to run the command you need to start lightdm etc
[20:39] <escott> TheSimkin, with open source why would you bother to backup the root fs. use something like etckeeper and backup your mysql databases etc in var and use !clone but backup up / seems stupid
[20:39] <JohnNapster> if I didn't want to install a package name using  sudo apt-get install package-name  but just wanted to get the version number of that package-name... how can i do that in ubuntu?
[20:40] <TheSimkin> escott: if you backup everything then you can chroot into your back up and run everthing form in there in case yourp rimary fails
[20:40] <nox-Hand> ActionParsnip: Will attempt! :)
[20:40] <TheSimkin> escott: it's actually a fantastic idea
[20:40] <zykotick9> JohnNapster: "apt-cache policy package-name"
[20:40] <TheSimkin> escott: especially if you backup medium is a snapshotting file system.
[20:40] <escott> TheSimkin, if you can take snapshots with lvm just export your snapshot then
[20:41] <JohnNapster> zykotick9: thanks... why's the "policy" part needed?
[20:41] <nox-Hand> ActionParsnip: Rebooting to test :)
[20:41] <zykotick9> JohnNapster: apt-cache has other options ;)
[20:41] <JohnNapster> i see
[20:41] <escott> TheSimkin, in any case setup an authkey, you may have to modify the sshd config but that will do what you want
[20:41] <JohnNapster> and the policy part is specifically to get a version number of a package?
[20:42] <hydrox24> []tsukasa[]: sorry for the late response, but Yes
[20:42] <zykotick9> JohnNapster: ya.  "apt-cache search foo" is also popular
[20:42] <lotus> hey, my autocomplete on a directory name does this: cd dir_na[tab] returns "cd dir_name[space]" -- how can I remove that damn space and replace it with a / ?
[20:43] <Seea_> My PhpMyAdmin dosen't work any tips ? i had it dowloaded and intstalled but nothing more then that
[20:43] <olFireFox> make sure u have, apache, php and mysql working
[20:43] <olFireFox> also make sure its in a web accessible location
[20:44] <JohnNapster> zykotick9: i did  apt-cache policy  (without the package-name part) and at the end it says   Pinned packages:  and then nothing following... what are pinned packages?
[20:44] <lotus> Seea_: try sudo apt-get install php5 mysql-server mysql-client libapache2-mod-php5
[20:44] <zykotick9> !pin | JohnNapster
[20:44] <Seea_> i had, but my firend said to me that it was some command i would type in ..
[20:44] <lotus> Seea_: I might have messed up the package names a bit, try apt-cache search if I did...
[20:44] <lotus> Seea_: sudo apache2ctl graceful or sudo apache2ctl restart
[20:45] <lotus> Seea_: if that still doesn't do it, Apache is not configured to load php files for some reason
[20:46] <zykotick9> JohnNapster: pinning "should" never be needed.  it can be useful if you are mixing repos (PPAs would count here).
[20:47] <JohnNapster> i was just reading the link that the bot offered me
[20:47] <JohnNapster> zykotick9: do _you_ have any pinned packages?
[20:48] <zykotick9> JohnNapster: nope, never had to use it
[20:48] <JohnNapster> so who would be using such a feature and why?
[20:48] <new_ubuntu> why i can not mount the device? sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
[20:48] <zykotick9> JohnNapster: two packages, same name - but from different repos with different version
[20:49] <lotus> hey, my autocomplete on a directory name does this: cd dir_na[tab] returns "cd dir_name[space]" -- how can I remove that damn space and replace it with a / ?
[20:49] <zykotick9> lotus: try = cd "dir_na<TAB>
[20:49] <escott> new_ubuntu, what error message does it give
[20:50] <lotus> zykotick9: are you saying I have to type a " before every directory if I want to autocomplete without a trailing space?
[20:50] <zykotick9> lotus: well something is certainly up with your example?
[20:51] <new_ubuntu> escott, thank i have result
[20:51] <JohnNapster> zykotick9: i see... but i think this feature is pointless... apt does a good job installing the proper package, so this feature should be removed from apt-cache
[20:51] <zykotick9> lotus: did that work?
[20:51] <JohnNapster> do you agree?
[20:51] <lotus> zykotick9: Mmm that " did not do the trick.  I think I found a bug report labeling this problem as something to do with the acroread.sh in the bash_completion.d directory
[20:51] <zykotick9> JohnNapster: no i don't agree it should be removed!  it has a point, just not one i find useful.
[20:51] <eegore> I do have a wee issue with getting a printer to work
[20:52] <lotus> zykotick9: removing that file seems to help, as long as I reload my bash window.  I had solved this earlier, but it looks like the problem was because I left a screen session open and some of the older windows didn't reload the bash file
[20:52] <zykotick9> lotus: ahhh, bash completion stuff can be tricky.  i remember something about acroread causing some issue...
[20:52] <lotus> zykotick9: thankyou for trying to help~
[20:52] <ActionParsnip> eegore: wassup?
[20:52] <escott> lotus, what is the directory name? what are your shopt settings?
[20:52] <JohnNapster> zykotick9: since apt always installs the best version, i don't understand how this can be useful
[20:52] <eegore> the base configuration utility sees the printer but the jobs are not printing to the network printer
[20:53] <lotus> escott: didn't matter what the directory name was.  I'm not sure what shopt settings are.
[20:53] <escott> lotus, "shopt"
[20:53] <bdi> if i du sudo apt-get install libgphoto2-2, where is it then installed?
[20:53] <trasp> How do I get hold of a standard dovecot.conf? (11.10) Or how do I generate a new one..?
[20:54] <zykotick9> bdi: try "dpkg -L libgphoto2-2" to see where it installed stuff
[20:54] <eegore> I am using a Brother MFC on the netwrok
[20:54] <escott> lotus, means "shell options"
[20:54] <ActionParsnip> eegore: did you go to the Brother site to get the driver?
[20:54] <JohnNapster> zykotick9: ... well, only if you want to contol apt to install a specific version of a package... is that correct?
[20:55] <trasp> found it...
[20:55] <zykotick9> JohnNapster: exactly
[20:55] <mister2> hey, does anybody know of a better mush client than gnome-mud? You can't copy text out of it, or use links, or fullscreen it, and logging it is... interesting.
[20:56] <JohnNapster> zykotick9: do you fancy having older (tested through time and presumably more stable) versions of packages... or do you crave for latest and greates?
[20:56] <JohnNapster> greatest
[20:56] <zykotick9> JohnNapster: it has it's uses.  but i personally think it's a level of package complexity that should be avoided (but that's just my overly conservative views on gnu/linux)
[20:56] <zykotick9> JohnNapster: i'm all about stability
[20:56] <ActionParsnip> !info tintin++
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> mister2: ^
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> !info tinyfugue
[20:57] <hydrox24> what's mush?
[20:57] <hydrox24> !mush
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> !info powwow
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> !info mudlet
[20:57] <JohnNapster> zykotick9: so you would probably limit apt to a specific minor version, like to install package-name 1.3.x and not 1.4
[20:57] <trasp> Maybe not, i found this, but when I run it, it just complains over my old (nonexisting/touched) dovecot.conf (This is what I found: "NOTE: You can get a new clean config file with: doveconf -n > dovecot-new.conf")
[20:58] <ActionParsnip> !info mcl
[20:58] <trasp> Anyone got a clue how to restore it?
[20:58] <zykotick9> JohnNapster: actually i think one should try to stick to the default packages provided in a release, i don't go chasing newest versions of stuff.  default repo, thinks work ;)
[20:59] <BillyIsBack> !themes
[20:59] <JohnNapster> wow!
[20:59] <lotus> escott: ty!
[20:59] <JohnNapster> that bot is spitting fire :D
[20:59] <escott> lotus, was it something in there?
[21:00] <lotus> escott: nope, it was the acroread stuff, but I appreciate the explanation
[21:01] <llutz> trasp: /usr/share/doc/dovecot-core/example-config/dovecot.conf
[21:01] <blue-diomond> hi all, some one tell me how to install hud in 11.10
[21:01] <llutz> trasp: or /usr/share/dovecot/dovecot.conf
[21:01] <trasp> llutz, thanks :). I had messed up my old one with settings for some other version... guess I was tired 6am ^^
[21:02] <ActionParsnip> blue-diomond: its precise only dude
[21:02] <ActionParsnip> blue-diomond: http://techhamlet.com/2012/01/how-to-install-the-new-hud-in-ubuntu-12-04-and-11-10/
[21:02] <JohnNapster> zykotick9: is it possible that i install the development version of WINE through the default apt repos ?  i want the latest and greatest
[21:02] <zykotick9> JohnNapster: no idea.
[21:02] <llutz> trasp: look at "etckeeper", very handy in those cases
[21:03] <JohnNapster> there are, of course, compiled packages, but i want to do that through apt
[21:03] <trasp> llutz, Allright, will take a looksie :)
[21:03] <JohnNapster> so i guess i should go and grab the package at winehq.org
[21:04] <JohnNapster> alrighty then
[21:05] <blue-diomond> ActionParsnip, thanks dude
[21:06] <nox-Hand> ActionParsnip: You, Sir, saved my bacon :) Back on Ubuntu on my system :D
[21:06] <nox-Hand> Thanks, ActionParsnip!
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> nox-Hand: np man
[21:12] <A_J> how difficult would it be to transfer my boot partition off my drive onto a SSD.
[21:12] <ikonia> very straight forward
[21:13] <A_J> ikonia can i reduce the size of the partion though
[21:13] <A_J> a few gb
[21:13] <ikonia> A_J: sure
[21:13] <ikonia> just create the new partition smaller
[21:13] <jimmy51_> if i have image.img.gz, how can i extract it and write it to /dev/sda?
[21:14] <ikonia> jimmy51_: what do you mean "write it to /dev/sda"
[21:14] <escott> jimmy51_, gunzip | dd of=/dev/sda
[21:14] <Manehattan> hi, can someone tell me how to find out what the cpu-usage of a certain process is? My server has a lot of >1.0 for more than a day and I can't figure out who's the culprit
[21:14] <A_J> okie ikonia i'll go ahead and order the SSD. thanks
[21:14] <A_J> Manehattan htop
[21:14] <jimmy51_> ikonia: i created a backup of an entire HDD with dd, now i want to write it back
[21:14] <eegore> drivers are 32 bit and need forcing
[21:14] <Manehattan> a_j: command not found...
[21:14] <ikonia> jimmy51_: how did you create the image
[21:14] <A_J> Manehattan download it
[21:15] <A_J> sudo apt-get install htop
[21:15] <soreau> Manehattan: The cli version is top
[21:15] <Manehattan> A_J: ok... due to the load that will take ages
[21:16] <jimmy51_> ikonia:   dd if=/dev/sda conv=sync,noerror bs=512K | gzip -c > /media/image.img.gz
[21:16] <ikonia> ok, so just dd it back
[21:16] <A_J> Manehattan hmm, okie
[21:16] <Manehattan> A_J: or not... ok, it tells me "init" takes up 100%
[21:16] <jimmy51_> ikonia: i'm trying to but must be doing something wrong.  i put a fresh drive in, used dd to zero it out (no partitions, not mounted, etc)
[21:16] <ikonia> jimmy51_: are you restoring it to a different disk ?
[21:17] <linuxdude2> how yall doing??
[21:17] <jimmy51_> ikonia: my restore command is:  gunzip -c /media/image.img.gz | dd of=/dev/sda conv=sync,noerror bs=512K
[21:17] <A_J> init (short for initialization) is a program for Unix-based computer operating systems that spawns all other processes. It runs as a daemon and typically has PID 1. The boot loader starts the kernel and the kernel starts init. If one were to delete init without a replacement, the system would encounter a kernel panic on the next reboot.
[21:17] <ikonia> jimmy51_: are you restoring it to a different disk ?
[21:17] <jimmy51_> ikonia: i get Permission denied /dev/sda  (oh... using sudo of course).
[21:17] <jimmy51_> ikonia: yes, different disk
[21:17] <ikonia> jimmy51_: are you restoring it to a different disk ?
[21:18] <jimmy51_> ikonia: yes, different disk.  removed original.
[21:18] <escott> jimmy51_, you probably dont want to restore with noerror that seems a bit wrong
[21:18] <ikonia> jimmy51_: is the disk the same size
[21:18] <Manehattan> A_J: I am aware of what init is, I'm just wondering if it should have a 100% load for days
[21:18] <jimmy51_> ikonia: they new disk is 500GB, old was 250GB.
[21:18] <ikonia> jimmy51_: ok, then that's not a good thing to do
[21:18] <ikonia> jimmy51_: the partition table and everything will be different
[21:18] <ikonia> jimmy51_: but it's up to you if you wish to continue
[21:19] <A_J> Manehattan i'm unsure too. perhaps ask others on the channel such as ikonia
[21:19] <jimmy51_> ikonia: it's ok... i'm not expecting it to boot and be perfect... this is just to prove i have the files in a compressed archive.
[21:19] <Manehattan> wait if it's a vps, does it even have to be my init or can it be someone else's
[21:21] <Athanasius> Sooooo, today I upgrade my family's desktop from Ubuntu 8.04 or somesuch to 11.10. This should be fun.
[21:21] <bennyp> well howdy! anybody using bitpim?
[21:21] <A_J> Athanasius good luck :)
[21:21] <bennyp> what's the bitpim install procedure like these days?
[21:21] <Manehattan> ikonia: Maybe you can tell me why my init process uses up 100%?
[21:21] <A-KO> Is there an 'easy', secure way to configure DNS dynamic updates in linux?
[21:21] <jimmy51_> ikonia: so... should my dd command to restore work?  i can't figure out why it says permission denied.  the drive is not mounted and i'm using sudo.
[21:22] <ikonia> Manehattan: could be many reasons.
[21:22] <ikonia> jimmy51_: ls -la /dev/sda
[21:22] <Athanasius> A_J: I'me hoping there's a fairly easy way to do basically a clean install without removing the /home folder :s
[21:22] <ikonia> jimmy51_: are you currently using /dev/sda ?
[21:22] <irvie> how can i see where my apache server is pointing? i forgot where my files are in the filesystem :P
[21:22] <iceroot> irvie: /var/www/
[21:22] <irvie> yeah that's for the default site
[21:22] <Manehattan> irvie: Should be in /etc/apache2/sites-enables
[21:23] <irvie> are those folders though?
[21:23] <kroq-gar78> irvie: yes
[21:23] <kroq-gar78> irvie: /var/www is
[21:23] <Manehattan> irvie: or rather 'sites-enabled' there are the configs
[21:23] <irvie> cause it says it's not a dir
[21:23] <irvie> oh
[21:23] <irvie> okay
[21:23] <kroq-gar78> irvie: not sure about site-enables
[21:23] <irvie> sec
[21:23] <FloodBot1> irvie: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:23] <escott> jimmy51_, the other side of the | is run as the current user you need to sudo -i first
[21:24] <Fyodorovna> Athanasius, not possible do a fresh install next to it and transfer what you need.
[21:24] <escott> jimmy51_, sudo root process here |(shell redirection as non-priv) non-priv process here
[21:24] <irvie> excellent i just read the config and the dir is in there :]
[21:24] <irvie> thanks
[21:24] <Athanasius> Fyodorovna: So just cp /home onto another harddrive or somesuch?
[21:25] <jimmy51_> escott: BINGO!

[21:25] <jimmy51_> ikonia: thanks as well.
[21:25] <Manehattan> ikonia: any way to keep my init from that or do I have to reboot and hope?
[21:26] <ryao> Is there a way to set MAKEOPTS for DKMS packages?
[21:26] <ikonia> Manehattan: depends why it's doing it
[21:26] <ikonia> Manehattan: I'd certainly suggest rebooting to see if it re-occurs
[21:27] <Manehattan> ikonia: I'll wait until I've copied all the files and then reboot.

[21:40] <osse> guntbert, thanks. I didn't know it had its own channel. But perhaps I should have.

[21:53] <Ca11um> For example, in Firefox, if you browse to another site, it still has the title of your homepage
[21:53] <Ca11um> and after saving a LibreOffice document, it remains as Untitled 1
[21:55] <Fyodorovna> Ca11um, with unity the top panel is interwined with the window open and the OS click on the FF window then the top panel. With libreoffice name it.

[22:00] <olFireFox> yes in that slideout thing
[22:00] <Daekdroom> olFireFox, you can replace it with another music player.
[22:00] <ActionParsnip> olFireFox: if you don't need it, uninstall the app and it will go. Or is that not what you mean>
[22:01] <d-block> hi
[22:01] <olFireFox> i'd rather have it not be there at all
[22:01] <Daekdroom> Not possible.
[22:01] <Fyodorovna> Daekdroom, could be but unity is confusing with new users as well as far as the top panel showing what you want
[22:02] <olFireFox> unity is pretty cool, i just dont like that i cant customize the inside part
[22:02] <Daekdroom> Fyodorovna, It's not Unity's fault.
[22:02] <yarg> hi i'm having some problems with ubuntu and i was wondering if anyone can help
[22:03] <olFireFox> hmmm, yeh uninstalling it just put mediaplayer there :p
[22:04] <bdi> what is the differences between somepackage and somepackage-dev ?
[22:05] <yarg> i have two disks, one with windows 7 and one that i installed ubuntu onto a couple of hours ago. after installing, i ran the software updater and rebooted. it would just say "error: no such device: (bunch of numbers/letters)", "error: no such partition", and "error: you need to load the kernel first"
[22:05] <yarg> so i downloaded the boot-repair-disk and just ran it using the recommended repair
[22:05] <Paer> Hi
[22:06] <CFHowlett> Paer   greetings
[22:06] <yarg> now it just says error no such device and drops me into a grub rescue prompt
[22:06] <yarg> it doesn't even show the windows 7 loader anymore so i can't get into windows
[22:06] <CFHowlett> bdi   dev packaages are bleeding edge, i.e. in development, prone to breaking and problems, i.e. pre-beat
[22:06] <yarg> (i'm on a laptop right now)
[22:06] <CFHowlett> *beta*
[22:07] <arand> CFHowlett: No, they aren't
[22:07] <yarg> any idea how i might be able to fix this?  i haven't had much luck trying any solutions that i've found on google
[22:08] <CFHowlett> arand   feel free to expand on this and/or correct my response
[22:08] <arand> yarg: you have a shell prompt available with the resque cd?
[22:08] <koffeehaus> hello i have a question for Ocelot users: have they fixed the annoying thing when you select a file from Nautilus and id doesn;t use themed selection colour?
[22:09] <Nine_9> bullshit! GCC g++ is certainly slower
[22:09] <vit_o> i'm not able to reset compiz and unity, can someone help me please?
[22:09] <yarg> i'm not sure (new to linux). i can put the rescue disk in and boot it up again. at the moment it's just sitting at a grub rescue> prompt
[22:09] <CFHowlett> !language|Nine_9
[22:09] <Paer> Thanks .well i'm here 'cause of realy annoying problem with cheese its crashy and when i record a video.it gets all cutted off.
[22:09] <Atlantic777> what do I have to set so every user can shutdown machine from terminal - halt?
[22:09] <CFHowlett> Paer   try guvcview
[22:09] <trex> Hi, Im trying to get Doom3 to work but I am running into some problems. The terminal result is here:http://codepaste.net/nwskeq. Can anyone tell me what to do?
[22:10] <arand> bdi: foo would contain the application foo, foo-dev would contain the stuff needed to create an application based on the framework/code of foo.
[22:11] <CFHowlett> arand   thank you.
[22:11] <Paer> I tried it too and it just crashes everytime i hit the record button
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> trex: did you use this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Doom3
[22:12] <arand> yarg: Which kind of recovery disk is it? I think it should be possible...
[22:12] <Nine_9> CFHowlett: sorry man... wrong channel
[22:12] <CFHowlett> Nine_9   :)
[22:12] <yarg> arand: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair this is what i used
[22:13] <trex> Yeah, That was the result of that technique
[22:13] <donato93> fifa 12 pc
[22:16] <arand> yarg: Ah, ok, I would go into advanced options and look in the MBR options tab, what alternatives does it give in the partition dropdown?
[22:17] <arand> (if any)
[22:18] <yarg> arand: the MBR options tab is greyed out
[22:18] <arand> yarg: go to main options and tick "restore mbr"
[22:19] <yarg> arand: all right. apply now or should i set some other options?
[22:19] <yarg> arand: it also generated this. http://paste.ubuntu.com/885594/
[22:19] <arand> yarg: Go look in the MBR tab again.
[22:20] <carli2> did someone get custom udev rules for usb drives working?
[22:20] <Paer> So some one told me to try vlc but there i s no sound and the vid quality is awesome
[22:20] <yarg> arand: ok now there are two options, both with drop-down boxes with a lot of options
[22:21] <Faryshta> Is there a suffle option for amarok?
[22:21] <arand> yarg: Do you have a lit of disks connected to this computer?
[22:21] <arand> yarg: And is it using some kind of raid?
[22:21] <arand> *lot
[22:22] <yarg> arand: yeah it should be in here http://paste.ubuntu.com/885594/ i don't run raid. i just have 5 hard drives. one has windows 7 on it, one has ubuntu, the other 3 are just storage
[22:23] <yarg> the drive that has ubuntu on it is partitioned into a swap disk and ext4 file system
[22:23] <arand> yarg: Ok, but sda is the one you normally boot from first?
[22:24] <yarg> yeah that's the windows 7 drive. it normally boots into the windows loader, then i can choose win7 or ubuntu from there.
[22:24] <yarg> but now it never appears and goes straight to trying to boot ubuntu, which then drops me into the grub rescue prompt.
[22:25] <arand> Hmm, have you been using grub or windows BCD to boot?
[22:26] <yarg> arand: the windows bcd
[22:26] <geek0091> Anyone here anygood at configuring apache2?
[22:26] <Ca11um> Can I re-arrange the boot order of grub?
[22:26] <lotus> geek0091: what you trying to do?
[22:26] <Ca11um> I'm currently dual-booting Ubuntu with Windows 7, can I make Windows 7 the top of the list (auto-selects after 10 seconds)?
[22:26] <geek0091> lotus: Can I send a forum link, kinda long to explain let alot type twice
[22:27] <yeats> Ca11um: 'sudo apt-get install startup-manager' - that will allow you to use a GUI to configure grub
[22:27] <arand> yarg: Right, then for some reason ubuntu has overwritten it, but I think you'd first need to use grub to get up and booting before fixing BCD
[22:27] <zhangdaoxie> good morning everyone

[22:28] <lotus> geek0091: sure
[22:28] <centHOGG|> yo
[22:28] <Ca11um> yeats, unable to locate package
[22:28] <sloop_> I'mmm here :D !!
[22:28] <yarg> arand: does that mean that should i reinstall grub with this boot repair tool?
[22:28] <yeats> !info startup-manager
[22:28] <geek0091> http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2427956
[22:28] <yeats> huh
[22:28] <ActionParsnip> Ca11um: 5 commands, done. No need for an extra app
[22:28] <arand> yarg: set it to reinstall MBR on *sda* and set it to boot the *sdb1* partition.
[22:28] <yarg> ok
[22:29] <bouzbou> Hi, I have a virtual server and I can choose different os for it, CentOS, ubuntu, opensuse or debian squeeze, I'm currently using ubuntu desktop on my computer but I don't know if ubuntu is the best os for a webserver? I always see debian webservers and not ubuntu, what do you think?
[22:29] <yeats> !info startupmanager
[22:29] <yeats> Ca11um: it's startupmanager (no dash)
[22:30] <ActionParsnip> bouzbou: each has its advantages
[22:30] <Ca11um> er, ActionParsnip...
[22:30] <Ca11um> command #3
[22:30] <Ca11um> #4 *
[22:30] <arand> yarg: After that, try rebooting and pray
[22:30] <Ca11um> target '86+' is not a directory
[22:30] <yarg> arand: when i have "restore the mbr of" set to "sda (mbr)" it will only let me choose sda1 under "partioned booted by the mbr"
[22:31] <ActionParsnip> Ca11um: then ignore 4 then
[22:31] <Ca11um> Thanks.
[22:31] <Ca11um> Let me reboot, see if it worked.
[22:31] <bouzbou> ActionParsnip: what is the most adapted to a beginner? with some package to manage easily and simple commands to install programs (git, phpmyadmin, etc...) ?
[22:32] <ActionParsnip> bouzbou: ubuntu is aimed at new users to Linux
[22:32] <arand> yarg: Ok it appears that this thing won't help us then, can you use ctrl+alt+F2 to get to a terminal instead?
[22:32] <ActionParsnip> bouzbou: both that and Debian will be pretty much the same on server imho
[22:32] <yarg> arand: yep. i'm in the terminal now
[22:32] <blackmatrix_ny> hi...can I upgrade to 11.10 and keep the gnome version from ver 10.04 ?
[22:32] <yeats> blackmatrix_ny: nope
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> blackmatrix_ny: you can tweak the new Gnome to look like Gnome2
[22:33] <arand> yarg: Right, do "mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt" use sudo if need be
[22:34] <bouzbou> ActionParsnip: ok I think I'm going to choose ubuntu because it's also my desktop os, it will be easier for me I guess
[22:34] <yarg> arand: ok done
[22:34] <blackmatrix_ny> what else is out there aside from Gnome and Kde...I really dont like the new Gnome look
[22:34] <arand> yarg: then "grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/sda"
[22:34] <yarg> arand: grub-install command not found :(
[22:35] <Peytonien> I'm having trouble launching Ubuntu. I installed it correctly, but when I try to launch it I get a black screen. I know Ubuntu is running because I can hear a noise when I adjust my volume. I've tried using nomodeset, but it just shows the splashscreen and never launches. Can anyone help me with my problem?
[22:36] <halt_> hi everyone
[22:36] <Jordan_U> yarg: What distro / LiveCD/USB are you trying to run grub-install from?
[22:37] <halt_> i have 11.04  and i want to install RT3090 wifi card
[22:37] <arand> Jordan_U: https://sourceforge.net/p/boot-repair/home/Home/
[22:37] <yarg> beat me to it hehe
[22:37] <arand> yarg: I would look around for a rapair thing that has grub-install on it :/
[22:38] <lduros> hi is there a DNS cache of some form in ubuntu?
[22:38] <lduros> when you visit domain names
[22:38] <arand> yarg: Any ubuntu liveCD would do, for example
[22:38] <lduros> like in windows you need to do flushdns
[22:38] <lduros> with ipconfig or whatever
[22:38] <yarg> arand: livecd like, the iso downloaded from the ubuntu site to install? or is it something else?
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> lduros: you can install dnsmasq if you want and set it as the first DNS server
[22:39] <Peytonien> I'm having trouble launching Ubuntu. I installed it correctly, but when I try to launch it I get a black screen. I know Ubuntu is running because I can hear a noise when I adjust my volume. I've tried using nomodeset, but it just shows the splashscreen and never launches. Can anyone help me with my problem?
[22:39] <yarg> arand: that's how i installed this, if it matters. i didn't use wubi.
[22:39] <arand> yeats: Yeah, that one should do, just choose "try ubuntu" when it starts.
[22:39] <lduros> ActionParsnip: hmm, ok
[22:39] <ssta> lduros: by default ubuntu doesn't cache dns...
[22:39] <arand> yeats -> yarg , sorry
[22:40] <yarg> arand: all right, one moment
[22:40] <llrealmanll> i have a problem to tern on physicaly my wireless card on ubuntu 11.10, broadcam Vostro 1520
[22:40] <lduros> ssta: really.. ok so firefox might
[22:40] <llrealmanll> it work on windows properly
[22:41] <ssta> lduros: more likely that it's a router or something...
[22:41] <lduros> hmm yeh that's possible
[22:41] <lduros> ssta: my smartphone finds the right place when going to the domain
[22:42] <lduros> and it uses 4G
[22:42] <lduros> so I guess it's just a matter of time
[22:42] <Peytonien> I'm having trouble launching Ubuntu. I installed it correctly, but when I try to launch it I get a black screen.

[22:46] <mylisto> I'm trying to find out why skype keeps on crashing..
[22:46] <icedtea> mylisto, I have been having the same issue recently
[22:46] <ssta> skype on Linux crashes a lot for everyone.  It's not just you :)
[22:47] <mintman> hello
[22:47] <arand> yarg: Ok, start a terminal and do the  "sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt"  and  "sudo grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/sda" again
[22:47] <mylisto> icedtea: this is what I used to try to find out strace -o skype_dump skype
[22:47] <mintman> h
[22:47] <mintman> h
[22:47] <mylisto> when I used that I get an output of *** glibc detected *** skype: corrupted double-linked list: 0x0a1f2c58 ***
[22:48] <JelloPop> h
[22:48] <yarg> arand: ok all done. reboot now?
[22:48] <mylisto> icedtea: what version of ubuntu do you have?
[22:49] <arand> yarg: It said "finished without error"? then yes, reboot and try
[22:49] <yarg> arand: yep. ok.
[22:49] <icedtea> mylisto: I'm on kubuntu 11.10
[22:50] <halt_> rt3090 wifi card in 11.04 is it possible?
[22:50] <blackmatrix_ny> so does Ubuntu 11.04 and 11.10 support Gnome 2.30.2 ?
[22:50] <icedtea> mylisto: In the past it was pretty reliable for me, but recently it has been freezing up a lot
[22:50] <blackmatrix_ny> officially ?
[22:50] <Jordan_U> arand: yarg: Not that there's anything wrong with it, but why install grub's boot sector to the mbr of /dev/sda when /boot/ is on /dev/sdb1?
[22:50] <mylisto> icedtea: it used to never be this bad...now I just login and it closes after a few seconds
[22:51] <yarg> ok now grub has loaded
[22:51] <ubuntu> hello
[22:51] <yarg> trying to load ubuntu now
[22:51] <arand> Jordan_U: Since that was the hd that's booting up by default.
[22:52] <Jordan_U> ubuntu: Hi. You might want to change your nick to something else, by entering "/nick new_nick_here" (without the quotes).
[22:53] <Jordan_U> yarg: arand: Once you're booted into Ubuntu be sure to run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" to make sure that sda is selected as an install device or grub's boot sector won't be installed there on grub-pc package updates.
[22:53] <geek0091> anyone here have any expirience with mod_proxy in apache?
[22:54] <Kostas110> hello everyone I have problems with samba I tried to install it from synaptic pakage manager (SAMBA4)( I use lubuntu)
[22:54] <Kostas110> and I had errors with smb.conf file I tried to solve them but no hope.. so I tryed to install samba 3 stable from www.samba.org
[22:54] <Kostas110> I removed the previous installation using "sudo apt-get remove samba --purge" and compiled the packet following the directions in the site.. now I type samba in the terminal and it sayes thats not installed and I should install samba 4
[22:54] <FloodBot1> Kostas110: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:54] <yarg> arand: jordan_u: all right. it booted into ubuntu fine. i just rebooted to make sure it would boot up correctly and it went back to the grub rescue prompt. i'll try what you told me to do before to fix it so i can boot into ubuntu again. then i'll do that stuff jordan_u just said.
[22:56] <mylisto> how can I figure out why skype keeps on crashing?
[22:56] <arand> Jordan_U: yarg: Does dpkg-reconfigure run an install and update or would that be needed as well?
[22:57] <Faryshta> mylisto, skype is privative software. You can't figure out why. No one can and that is why no one has been able to fix it. Sorry.
[22:57] <Kostas110> http://paste.ubuntu.com/885633/
[22:57] <adac> I try to mount my encrypted hard drive (LVM) but nautilus complains with:  Failed: Not a mountable file system
[22:57] <adac> any ideas?
[22:57] <Jordan_U> yarg: arand: "dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" runs grub-install (multiple times if multiple install devices are selected) and runs update-grub.
[22:58] <mylisto> faryshta: it was working perfectly fine until yesterday...so it doesn't seem like it was the actual program
[22:58] <Kostas110> I have problem with samba http://paste.ubuntu.com/885633/
[22:58] <mylisto> isn't there a way I can get an error output in terminal or something like that?
[22:58] <arand> yarg: Ok, then that should take care of it.
[22:59] <yarg> arand: jordan_u: booting back into ubuntu again to do that. hopefully this will fix it!
[23:00] <Jordan_U> yarg: When you are prompted for install devices make sure that both sda and sdb are selected (and that no partitions are selected). That way booting should work no matter which drive your BIOS decides to boot from.
[23:01] <Jordan_U> yarg: You select/unselect using space bar, and continue on to the next question with Enter.
[23:03] <yarg> jordan_u: it's listed as sdd and sdd1 this time. so select /dev/sda and /dev/sdd but not /dev/sdd1, correct?
[23:03] <Jordan_U> yarg: Correct.
[23:04] <yarg> jordan_u: all right, rebooting again.
[23:04] <bdi> why isn't there a ppa for libgphoto-2.4.13 ?
[23:06] <netbus> are there any major differences between mint and ubuntu??
[23:06] <bdi> anyone?
[23:06] <dotblank> netbus, lots
[23:06] <bdi> netbus: mint has a cleaner UI
[23:06] <xlREDlx> I hate mint
[23:06] <bdi> xlREDlx: why?
[23:07] <ascrazy> hi!
[23:07] <xlREDlx> its a pain
[23:07] <dotblank> At a certain point, the lines blur
[23:07] <xlREDlx> and kde is gross
[23:07] <dotblank> it all just becomes linux
[23:07] <bdi> xlREDlx: why?
[23:07] <xlREDlx> i like Unity XD
[23:07] <lion42> Might I suggest a trip to #ubuntu-offtopic, everyone?
[23:07] <lion42> It's awfully scenic this time of year.
[23:07] <dotblank> I mean, so long as I can run GCC and do dev work I could care less
[23:07] <bdi> xlREDlx: you have no sane arguments. you are not worth listening to then
[23:08] <ascrazy> ubuntu 12.04 install hangs at "who are you?" step, wtf?
[23:08] <Shojo> haha gg bdi
[23:08] <netbus> it comes down to preference, man. no need to get razy :P
[23:08] <xlREDlx> meh as long as its not M$ im more or less good
[23:08] <Shojo> ascrazy: guess it doesn't like you:)
[23:08] <Kostas110> can anyone help with samba problem?
[23:08] <bdi> xlREDlx: dont be a fanboy
[23:08] <xlREDlx> I do alot of distro hoping bdi
[23:09] <xlREDlx> Ubuntu has been the most painless
[23:09] <bdi> can anybody create a PPA for me please?
[23:09] <xlREDlx> and the best looking
[23:09] <dotblank> bdi, why not make it your self
[23:09] <dotblank> you can use the apt commands to get the package, then update the version
[23:09] <bdi> dotblank: i dont know how to do it. i dont even know how to make .deb files and it seems very difficult to learn
[23:09] <Shojo> bdi: i'm fangirl:)
[23:10] <yarg> arand: jordan_u: back at the grub rescue prompt :(
[23:10] <ascrazy> Shojo: what can I do about this?
[23:10] <dotblank> bdi, use apt-get source package
[23:10] <dotblank> the go into the directory, you might see specific ubuntu patches
[23:10] <Jordan_U> !bootinfo | yarg
[23:10] <Shojo> i declare myself smitten
[23:10] <dotblank> !dpkg-buildpackage
[23:10] <dotblank> aww
[23:11] <Shojo> ascrazy: no ideea, i was just kiddin
[23:11] <dotblank> bdi, http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
[23:11] <ascrazy> :(
[23:11] <arand> Jordan_U: Ey already posted the one the rescue CD produced: http://paste.ubuntu.com/885594/
[23:12] <Kostas110> guys I have problem with samba  installation
[23:12] <yarg> jordan_u: says unknown command. ubottu: i'll take a look at that
[23:12] <bdi> dotblank: so source package is used to create ppa?
[23:12] <yarg> er never mind :)
[23:12] <yarg> thought that you wanted me to type that in the prompt hehe
[23:13] <Shojo> next, linux will have Irsi to talk to lol
[23:13] <bdi> dotblank: can you walk me through the process so that i can learn it properly?
[23:14] <Jordan_U> yarg: You seem to have many internal hard drives. I would recommend running "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" again and selecting all of the drives (but none of the partiitons) as install devices. The only downside is that if you won't be able to boot any of the other drives if you decide to remove the sdb drive.
[23:14] <Shojo> Siri*
[23:15] <bdi> dotblank: ?
[23:17] <Shojo> bdi: what r u trying to do?

[23:20] <Shojo> bdi: i'm clueless srry

[23:20] <arand> !checkinstall | bdi
[23:21] <bdi> arand: i have tried checkinstall..and it fails
[23:24] <ZeloZelos> what chat program should i get thats free and will connect to freenode, x-chat only givs a 30 day try for windows?
[23:25] <ZeloZelos> i found one called y chat a while ago, but i guess it got pulled off
[23:26] <Shojo> ZeloZelos: try irssi
[23:26] <bdi> ZeloZelos: why do you care about trial period on windows?
[23:26] <ssta> ZeloZelos: there are xchat builds for windows that aren't restricted
[23:26] <ZeloZelos> because it expired bdi :)
[23:27] <Shojo> ZeloZelos: basic Mirc expires too, but allows connection even if expired with no problems:)
[23:27] <ZeloZelos> ty guys for the suggestions, ...sorry i didnt realize i was on ubuntu's chat room, thought i joined blender-chat
[23:27] <ssta> ZeloZelos: for example: http://www.silverex.org/download/ (I'm sure google can find more for you if you look, I know there are several out there)
[23:28] <bdi> ZeloZelos: how is that possible when you are running on ubuntu?
[23:28] <Shojo> bdi:  he said he's on windows
[23:28] <ZeloZelos> bdi im in windows
[23:28] <bdi> ZeloZelos: why are you then in the ubuntu channel?
[23:29] <mydogsnameisrudy> ubuntu wantabee
[23:29] <ZeloZelos> bdi see my statement about it just a few secs ago
[23:29] <Vaela> hey so
[23:29] <Vaela> uhm
[23:29] <bdi> ZeloZelos: i dont see how your question has any relevance to ubuntu
[23:29] <ZeloZelos> bdi ???...did you read my previous statement that pertains to just that?
[23:29] <arand> bdi: Next version of Ubuntu (12.04) and Debian (Wheezy) has libgphoto2 2.4.13 packaged...
[23:29] <Vaela> I use Banshee Media Player
[23:30] <Vaela> and when I use the Single Repeat function
[23:30] <Vaela> it cuts off the last few seconds of the song
[23:30] <Vaela> any clue as to how I might be able to make it smoothly loop my song(s)?
[23:30] <ActionParsnip> ZeloZelos: try hydrairc
[23:31] <ssta> Vaela: filthy hack: add a few seconds of silence to the end of each song?
[23:31] <Vaela> ssta: that's the problem
[23:31] <ZeloZelos> Vaela if you get audacity you can edit the ends and add/remove silence n stuff
[23:31] <bdi> arand: sounds nice...but that will first be out in 2 weeks or so right?
[23:31] <Vaela> my songs are the kind that smoothly loop
[23:31] <Vaela> ZeloZelos: it loops perfectly in, say, Clementine
[23:31] <Vaela> or anything I use on Windows
[23:31] <Vaela> it's just Banshee that's doing it
[23:32] <ssta> Vaela: sorry, I was kinda joking.  I don't use banshee, so I dunno what sorts of bugs it has
[23:32] <Vaela> o
[23:32] <Vaela> what do /you/ use?
[23:32] <arand> bdi: End of april, depending on your needs you could run the beta in a virtual machine or so, maybe...
[23:32] <Ampix0> hey guys. ubuntu noob. just did a apt-get for the GUI for ftpd. How do i actually .. get to the GUI lol. Like where do i go to run it
[23:32] <ssta> Vaela: VLC usually.
[23:33] <ssta> Vaela: thre's a bazillion media players available...try a few, decide which one you prefer yourself :)
[23:33] <ZeloZelos> Vaela..oh are they mp3? it may have to do with the decoder or something like that, those werent orig for linux if im not mistaken they were re-compiled for it
[23:33] <Vaela> ZeloZelos: yes, they are mp3
[23:34] <Ampix0> no help? simple question
[23:35] <ZeloZelos> Vaela try diff codecs, maybe that'll do it
[23:35] <icedtea> Ampix0: the "old" way of linux is to read the documentation, and edit configurations files
[23:35] <Vaela> different codecs
[23:35] <Vaela> right so
[23:35] <Vaela> how do I change the codec?
[23:35] <icedtea> Ampix0: which ftpd did you install?
[23:37] <Ampix0> icedtea ProFtpd
[23:37] <itaylor57> Ampix0, you would do better to use ssh and its protocols i.e. sftpd
[23:38] <Ampix0> icedtea. admittedly i am a massive noob to linux. fll on windows programmer, but you know. MY friend and i are trying to set up a dedicated MC server. almost there lol.
[23:38] <icedtea> Ampix0: what do you need ftp for?  Can i still use filezilla back on windows?
[23:39] <maXXer> hello guys
[23:39] <Ampix0> icedtea. no its for me. the server is not in my house.
[23:39] <kelvinella> which program do you use to convert wav to mp3?
[23:40] <icedtea> Ampix: if its just you, I would use ssh/sftp
[23:41] <Ampix0> icedtea alright i know just a little about that. Can i still use filezilla?
[23:41] <vVREDVv> .
[23:41] <Kuwanger> Is there a simple way to monitor over time the launching of processes?  I ask because often often the parent pid entry for a process is useless:  say, when process A launches process B which launches process C and then process B closes.
[23:41] <icedtea> Ampix0: err wait, are you just downloading files, or uploading files to it?
[23:41] <xaviers3468> Hey, when installing ubuntu alongside windows 7 (different partition), I recreated the swap partition not knowing what would happen http://i.imgur.com/ChccT.jpg has anyone ever had this problem and/or knows a solution? Any help will be much appreciated.
[23:41] <maXXer> anyone knows drivers 4 Chicony Webcam?
[23:42] <Ampix0> icedtea. I guess mostly just uploading. I would prefer both though. I WILL need sh though anyway. we are using this for a mc server
[23:42] <vVREDVv> get a windows install cd
[23:42] <testing321> anyone know how to install adobe flash plugin completely from commandline from a live cd? I don't know which repository command I need and which apt-get name for adobe flash
[23:42] <itaylor57> Ampix0, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/TransferFiles
[23:42] <vVREDVv> and boot up open the CMD and enter bootrec /fixmbr
[23:42] <ActionParsnip> maXXer: websearch for the USB ID, you can find it if you run:   lsusb
[23:42] <Darkenvy> How can I "zip archive.zip folder" and exclude a directory? Ive read the manual as well as the internet
[23:43] <xaviers3468> vv, won't that overwrite grub?
[23:43] <maXXer> ActionParsnip, i tried
[23:43] <yarg> arand: jordan_u: thanks for the help. i still haven't been able to fix the problem yet so i'm just going to try again another time. thanks again!
[23:43] <maXXer> ActionParsnip, maybbe i have to try one more time :D
[23:43] <newhaskeller> i have a 2008 macbook with ubuntu as the sole OS, I cannot get wifi to work.. this is the output of "lspci -v" http://pastebin.com/9Eptkixz
[23:43] <xaviers3468> Ampix0: are you trying to transfer files to a ubuntu server for your minecraft server?
[23:44] <newhaskeller> can someone help me with getting wireless
[23:44] <newhaskeller> i am using oneiric
[23:44] <ActionParsnip> !broadcom | newhaskeller
[23:44] <X-warrior> Hey guys, I just did a backup from almost 1tb using rsync locally. The first HD shows 792gb and the backup hd shows 801gb. Why this difference between them?
[23:45] <Ampix0> xaviers3468 the ubutu server IS going to be the minecraft server. im just trying to set it up and manage it
[23:45] <xaviers3468> Ampix0: and you need help transferring and managing files?
[23:46] <Ampix0> xaviers3468. what it looks like from what all you guys are showing me is i maybe just need to set up an SSH server on this box. and that will handle the ssh and the FTP. And then I could command the MC server from the SSH as well
[23:47] <newhaskeller> how do i get mac drivers for an unconnected machine
[23:47] <xaviers3468> Ampix0: Yep, that's it and by handling ssh sftp is enabled automatically
[23:47] <DJ>  newhaskeller the only way VIA a usb pendrive
[23:47] <DJ> or external H/d
[23:48] <Ampix0> xaviers3468.  How do i set up the SSH server
[23:48] <ActionParsnip> newhaskeller: the page sows how to do it offline. Considering the system is a laptop, you could easily use an Ethernet connection and get updates and the drivers
[23:49] <ActionParsnip> DJ: you can actually use the install media, so the only way isn't a usb pendrive
[23:49] <DJ> okay ActionParsnip I'll keep it in mind thank you.
 Maybe different block sizes?
[23:51] <X-warrior> haz3lnut, is it possible 9gb difference? Can you take a look at my fdisk -l at http://paste.ubuntu.com/885682/
[23:52] <X-warrior> haz3lnut, maybe because one is ntfs and other one is ntfs?
[23:53] <dualMoon> here's a bit of a silly question: how does one view HTML documentation for a package?
[23:53] <waxstone> dualMoon, open with your browser
[23:53] <DJ> dualMoon, install dwww
[23:53] <itaylor57> dualMoon, via your browser
[23:54] <ActionParsnip> dualMoon: use your web browsr...
[23:54] <dualMoon> DJ: thank you.
[23:54] <DJ> no problem dualMoon
[23:54] <dualMoon> to others: please tell me you didn't think i meant like that :/
[23:54] <X-warrior> haz3lnut, maybe because one is ntfs and other one is ext?*
[23:55] <maXXer> guys the websearch for the driver 04f2:b1d6 get me on the ubuntu.com/components
 4096 byte v 512 bytes if there's a lotta files, also diff filesystems
[23:56] <maXXer> where i can't download anithing
[23:56] <maXXer> i need that driver absolutely
 was this a first backup or a subsequent backup?
[23:57] <X-warrior> haz3lnut, the first one
[23:57] <maXXer> please?
[23:57] <X-warrior> this is strange yesterday I used mkfs.ntfs to format it, and now it says it is a linux partition... crazy stuff
[23:58] <dualMoon> DJ: thanks again :)
 then a lot of files means 3584 bytes per file difference
[23:59] <urman> hello/hola
[23:59] <X-warrior> haz3lnut, just for the files smaller them 4096 right?
[23:59] <icedtea> welcome
[23:59] <urman> help take care
[23:59] <Jordan_U> X-warrior: fdisk doesn't understand filesystems, it only knows what it sees in the partition table. mkfs doesn't modify the partition table.
[23:59] <urman> sorry but I speak spanish and need help
[23:59] <icedtea> enjoy your stay in #ubuntu
