[18:57] <dotblank> actually X windows still make me hostile
[18:57] <dotblank> I might just be lost in wayland tho
[18:57] <Seven_Six_Two> candyban, and I've noticed that you're on the other side of the planet...getting together for a beer would involve a $1000 flight
[18:57] <candyban> dotblank, only if you have to write code directly for X I guess ;)
[18:58] <dotblank> candyban, or try to do basic things with dualhead settups and proprietary drivers
[18:58] <candyban> Seven_Six_Two, I don't mind if you want to spend so much on a good beer (btw ... we have 600+ beers in Belgium)
[18:58] <jblz> does anyone know what ubuntu package contains the "cpuspeed" cli command?
[18:59] <candyban> Seven_Six_Two, btw ... $1000 ... what is that nowadays with the exchange rate ... 7 euros? :p
[18:59] <candyban> Seven_Six_Two, jk
[18:59] <SwedeMike> jblz: use "apt-cache search cpuspeed"
[18:59] <soop> and candyban ... and doesnt every beer have its own glass? :)
[18:59] <Seven_Six_Two> dotblank, I have nvidia driver and a multi-head twinview setup. It was very easy to set up...this time...
[18:59] <dotblank> candyban, what would that be in bitcoins?
[18:59] <An_Ony_Moose> bastidrazor, there, I finally got around to trying it
[18:59] <candyban> soop, yes
[18:59] <An_Ony_Moose> (yes, I am Anonymice )
[18:59] <bastidrazor> jblz: you mean to set the cpufreq governors and stuff? if so cpufrequtils package gives you cpufreq-set and cpufreq-info
[18:59] <dotblank> Seven_Six_Two, But I had a 1080 monitor rotated 90 degrees and a normal monitor
[18:59] <soop> candyban makes for big cupboards :P
[18:59] <jblz> SwedeMike, thank you, i don't have it- that's why i'm asking :)
[19:00] <dotblank> 1080p
[19:00] <An_Ony_Moose> bastidrazor, it only shows a black screen (though that is a difference, there was a flashing cursor before) on tty8
[19:00] <Seven_Six_Two> dotblank, oh, I read about that...and the lack of compiz if you need xinerama.
[19:00] <SwedeMike> jblz: you don't have what?
[19:00] <jblz> bastidrazor, thank you.  there is a command "cpuspeed" that just outputs the speed of the proc in Mhz
[19:00] <An_Ony_Moose> bastidrazor, but I started it from tty6. Does that make a difference?
[19:00] <jblz> SwedeMike, the "cpuspeed" command
[19:00] <candyban> dotblank, with matrox and nvidia it was quite easy ... (missed your comment above)
[19:00] <Seven_Six_Two> dotblank, I was upset when I couldn't find xserver-xgl. that's when I discovered that I didn't need xinerama
[19:01] <jblz> SwedeMike, and to be perfectly honest.. i don't have apt.  I'm using Lucid Puppy linux.
[19:01] <SwedeMike> jblz: I understood that. apt-cache search searches all installable packets, if it's not shown, then it's not in any of the installable packets in the repositories you've enabled.
[19:01] <psusi> sipior: holy crap man.  mountall is so smart.  It ignores the fstab order number, because it actually figures out what filesystems are on the same physical disk, and goes ahead and starts all of the fscks, but ionices all but one so they don't really compete with each other, then when the high priority one finishes, it ups the priority of one of the others
[19:01] <dotblank> isnt xserver-sgl depreciated
[19:01] <dotblank> xgl*
[19:01] <botcity> falco_ have you got eggdbus installed as i think its needed by ConsoleKit ?
[19:01] <Pici> jblz: you can use http://packages.ubuntu.com to search for and within packages if you don't have an Ubutnu system at hand.
[19:01] <Seven_Six_Two> dotblank, yes, but I kept reading that it was required to enable compiz while using xinerama.
[19:01] <bastidrazor> jblz: cpufreq-info does as well if you give the correct syntax
[19:02] <bastidrazor> An_Ony_Moose: it makes no difference.
[19:02] <sipior> psusi: huh, that's definitely going the extra mile.
[19:02] <dotblank> Seven_Six_Two, Its an ugly hack tho
[19:02] <bastidrazor> An_Ony_Moose: and it does what you want?
[19:02] <An_Ony_Moose> bastidrazor, oh wait, it worked now. except GNOME has some problem with a keyring
[19:03] <Seven_Six_Two> dotblank, no doubt. All I wanted was a "big-desktop" with 2x22"ws monitors, but not separate x-screens.
[19:03] <An_Ony_Moose> bastidrazor, and the window decorator doesn't seem to want to work. GNOME seems not to like multiple sessions
[19:03] <jblz> okay, thank you very much bastidrazor Pici, SwedeMike !
[19:03] <An_Ony_Moose> but thanks for the help
[19:03] <Phong_> ok how can i remove wine completely
[19:04] <Phong_> when i do this 'rm -r ~/.wine
[19:04] <Phong_> '
[19:04] <kuroishi> Does anyone know of a script like autoap for DD-WRT that automatically and continuously connects to the strongest unprotected wifi network?  for a car computer or similar mobile setup?
[19:04] <drc> nmaxchat: nicholas is easier to spell/type :)
[19:04] <Phong_> i got write protect file
[19:04] <bastidrazor> An_Ony_Moose: if you're using the same user then you should see issues since its reading the same files for both instances
[19:04] <Seven_Six_Two> Phong_, sudo apt-get remove wine
[19:04] <An_Ony_Moose> bastidrazor: yeah. Thanks though, it's working mostly :)
[19:04] <bastidrazor> An_Ony_Moose: best of luck, you're welcome
[19:05] <Phong_> i still see wine in the applications
[19:05] <Seven_Six_Two> Phong_, You'll have to use the -f flag with rm to remove everything, but be very careful, as that means "force", and can trash everything if you don't use it properly
[19:05] <Phong_> after doint the remove
[19:05] <bastidrazor> jblz: you're welcome
[19:05] <pyrofallout> Maybe someone here can help me. I am running 10.10 64bit server on my xen vps, I keep getting the following error message in my auth.log. Mar 24 14:04:54 pyrofallout getty[8900]: /dev/hvc0: No such file or directory
[19:05] <Phong_> so i do 'rm -rf ~/.wine ?
[19:05] <Phong_> right?
[19:05] <An_Ony_Moose> bastidrazor, ok, scrap that, I'm going to try and find a different window manager etc for the new X session xD
[19:06] <Phong_> i dont want to save any..i want completedly removed
[19:06] <Phong_> got it
[19:06] <Phong_> ;)
[19:06] <Phong_> brb
[19:06] <Seven_Six_Two> Phong_, yes. I always put the whole path when I use the -f flag because I'm paranoid, but that should do it.\
[19:06] <akernan> how can I change wireless from eth1 to wlan0?
[19:06] <Salih87> Hello guys. I reinstall my windows 7. How can i restore ubuntu boot? When i start to computer it automatically pass through the windows 7 ? I know i took so much trouble :s
[19:07] <xangua> !grub2 | Salih87
[19:07] <Phong_> Seven_Six_Two, but why i still see wine under application menu?
[19:07] <Phong_> should i restart the pc?
[19:07] <drc> Phong_: Be advised, WINE does not play well with GNOME menus
[19:07] <Seven_Six_Two> Phong_, did you do     sudo apt-get remove wine
[19:07] <Phong_> yes
[19:07] <Phong_> i did
[19:07] <falco_> botcity: yeah
[19:08] <candyban> Seven_Six_Two, shouldn't he have purged it?
[19:08] <candyban> Seven_Six_Two, (didn't follow the conversation)
[19:08] <Phong_> i still see wine under Application menu
[19:08] <Phong_> lol
[19:08] <Seven_Six_Two> Phong_, then you can just manually delete it from the menu. right click on "applications" to get the menu editor.  candyban you're right, I believe...
[19:08] <candyban> Phong_, dpkg -P wine
[19:09] <paulus68> what is the easiest way to check if my iptables is doing what it suppose to do?
[19:09] <quiescens> purge doesn't really do anything useful
[19:09] <`god> hy
[19:09] <quiescens> for user-level packages
[19:09] <candyban> Phong_, sudo (off course)
[19:09] <quiescens> but sure, keep telling people to purge as though it will affect things like gui settings
[19:09] <drc> Phong_: Do NOT delete the WINE menu...UNCHECK it...if you delete it and want to USE WINE in the future, the WINE menu will NOT be there
[19:10] <Seven_Six_Two> quiescens, isn't purge for uninstalling everything including configs? like "remove completely" in synaptic?
[19:10] <quiescens> remove completely options only ever affect System settings
[19:10] <`god> guys i need some opinion with something
[19:10] <quiescens> it would be inappropriate to delte user data because an admin decided to remove a package
[19:10] <Phong_> lol i undelete it
[19:10] <quiescens> delete*
[19:10] <An_Ony_Moose> argh, can someone list all of the programs that run in a standard GNOME session for me please? xP
[19:10] <Phong_> nevermind darm it
[19:10] <Seven_Six_Two> drc, is wine in the menu(unchecked) before it's installed?
[19:11] <Trashi> hi. i did install apache2 and write a upload file script. unfortunately apache ignores all uploaded files. to the guys in #apache said i have to install mod_dav/mod_mime ... i just activate these via a2enmod but it doesnt work ... hope someone can help to teach me apache to receive files?!
[19:11] <waseem> hi my sound (youtube) is working, but my "sound preferences" cannot see my hardware or any output device. Also adjusting/muting sound has no affect on the sound output. This all worked fine before I upgraded my nvidia gfx drivers.
[19:11] <drc> Seven_Six_Two: Not that I know.  I DO know that playing with WINE and GNOME menus is a real PIA
[19:11] <pyrofallout> Is there a way I can properly create /dev/hvc0 on my ubuntu installation (xen vps)? I am getting /dev/hvc0 not found errors in my logs
[19:11] <Seven_Six_Two> Trashi, did you run  sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload
[19:11] <quiescens> so, suppose you install mysql, purging it would remove its config settings. but if you installed openoffice, purging it would not remove a user's settings, if you reinstalled it, all the users would still have their settings in tact
[19:12] <Trashi> Seven_Six_Two: yes > apache2 restart
[19:12] <Stava> will the firefox package get updated to firefox 4 any time soon?
[19:12] <drc> Seven_Six_Two: Like I said to Phong_ :  WINE does not play well with GNOME menus
[19:12] <kuroishi> Does anyone know of a script like autoap for DD-WRT that automatically and continuously connects to the strongest unprotected wifi network?  for a car computer or similar mobile setup?
[19:12] <nubuntu> I heard that firefox will be loaded into 11.04 by default and when 3,6 reached eol, it will be in repo's.
[19:13] <NCS_One> my screen blocks after 2 or 3 minutos of inactivity, but on energy settings it is to 30 minutos, whats wrong?
[19:13] <Welshy-Rob> anyone know of a good keylogger for linux?
[19:13] <kerneloops_> hello LOL
[19:13] <kerneloops_> Welshy-Rob :)
[19:13] <Salih87> ubottu: thank you :)
[19:13] <Seven_Six_Two> drc, I've never tried to completely remove it like that, but If it's not in the menu before it's installed, and installing adds it, I wouldn't assume that it wouldn't add it again...but I've no experience in doing that,
[19:13] <nmaxchat> drc, Thanks
[19:14] <An_Ony_Moose> NCS_One, try system>preferences>Power Management
[19:14] <An_Ony_Moose> see what the settings are
[19:14] <nmaxchat> SO About this password business
[19:14] <kerneloops_> may I "apt-get remove --purge linux-headers-2.6.35-27 linux-headers-2.6.35-27-generic linux-image-2.6.35-27-generic" ?
[19:14] <kerneloops_> can I use --purge to remove old kernels?
[19:14] <nubuntu> sure you would, if you have a newer version of course.
[19:14] <nmaxchat> I have a password at log on and what else ?
[19:15] <candyban> nubuntu, s/newer/working/ :p
[19:15] <kerneloops_> nubuntu: it's just those 3 files ?
[19:15] <nubuntu> but use apt-get purge
[19:15] <drc> Seven_Six_Two: I have :(  AFAIK the ONLY way to get WINE back into the menu once you've DELETED the menu items is to go into applications.menu and physically delete the two "deleted" lines in the wine-wine section
[19:15] <nubuntu> w/0 --
[19:15] <NCS_One> An_Ony_Moose: thats wheres its set to 30 minuts
[19:15] <kerneloops_> nubuntu: what is the differente between remove --purge or just purge
[19:15] <Seven_Six_Two> drc, wow. that's no fun.  ;)
[19:15] <nubuntu> I would recommend that you remove it with synaptic, easier.
[19:15] <kerneloops_> thats not what I asked lol
[19:16] <nmaxchat> dotblank, So What are the different passwords ?
[19:16] <nubuntu> remove - removes the application's files while purge also removes the configuration files.
[19:16] <kerneloops_> nubuntu: is purge the same as remove --purge?
[19:16] <drc> Seven_Six_Two: Ask nmaxchat, we spent a bunch of time last night doing just that. Like I said AFSIK (I may be wrong)
[19:16] <An_Ony_Moose> NCS_One, well, you can change that setting ;)
[19:16] <iceroot> kerneloops_: its the same, before apt was only using remove --purge, now its purge so that you dont have to write that much
[19:16] <kerneloops_> k iceroot :)
[19:16] <nmaxchat> Seven_Six_Two, Whats the question ?
[19:17] <An_Ony_Moose> is there a way to hide certain users from the login list?
[19:17] <kerneloops_> yes
[19:17] <drc> nmaxchat: I was just telling hime about our WINE session last night
[19:17] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose wait a sec
[19:17] <Seven_Six_Two> nmaxchat, we were just discussing the manual removal of wine from the menu, and how it's problematic at best
[19:17] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: in terminal type: sudo nano /etc/gdm/custom.conf
[19:18] <akernan> How can I change nic interface name?
[19:18] <NCS_One> An_Ony_Moose: but its set for 30 minuts and it blocks after 2 or 3
[19:18] <ilea> can someone tell me a messenger aplication that suports audio/video?
[19:18] <paulus68> how do I check if the NAT rules are functioning correctly in IPTABLES
[19:18] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, yep, so what do I put in the file
[19:18] <Seven_Six_Two> ilea, skype, ekiga
[19:18] <An_Ony_Moose> NCS_One, strange :/ try changing the value and see if it makes a difference
[19:18] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: when it says [greeter] you put like this Exclude=anonymoose,nobody
[19:18] <kerneloops_> where*
[19:18] <ilea> skype can conect to tahoo?
[19:19] <An_Ony_Moose> thanks kerneloops_
[19:19] <candyban> akernan, /etc/udev (try looking there)
[19:19] <NCS_One> An_Ony_Moose: ok, thanks

[19:20] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, just about to try ;)
[19:20] <nmaxchat> Seven_Six_Two, the key is to remove the <deleted> in the application menu after having backed it up
[19:20] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, I've messed around a bit with my X server, I'll have to reboot to try
[19:20] <An_Ony_Moose> so brb ;P
[19:21] <fvahid> hi all
[19:21] <`god> hey guys take a small look at this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iBwiKuE4-0U , ubuntu 10.10 netbook edition i don't know what to do ...
[19:22] <Seven_Six_Two> `god, please don't repeat that quickly. it takes time to watch and type a response...
[19:22] <nmaxchat> Seven_Six_Two, I can email you the instructions from my other computer later if U want<EMAIL_ADDRESS>is a protected email
[19:22] <`god> sry but nobody can hear me :P
[19:22] <kuroishi> I can
[19:22] <waseem> hi my sound (youtube) is working, but my "sound preferences" cannot see my hardware or any output device. Also adjusting/muting sound has no affect on the sound output. This all worked fine before I upgraded my nvidia gfx drivers.
[19:23] <Seven_Six_Two> nmaxchat, that's ok, but thanks for the offer! It was actually someone else that was having the issue.
[19:23] <ilea> sorry for private messaging without asking seven_six_two but you know a aplication that suports yahoo and audio/video call?
[19:23] <Seven_Six_Two> ilea, np. I have never looked for one, so unfortunately not.
[19:23] <Navion> Anyone have a working LiveCD for loading Ubuntu on a MacMini (4,1)?
[19:24] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, nope, didn't work
[19:24] <Samuel_> is there a GUI for Samba?
[19:24] <bradland> jrib, you still around?
[19:24] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: wait did u go to system admin login window?
[19:25] <kerneloops_> login screen
[19:25] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, um, what?
[19:25] <kerneloops_> you need to change an option there too
[19:25] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: u are using ubuntu gui right
[19:25] <An_Ony_Moose> oh right that
[19:25] <An_Ony_Moose> yes
[19:25] <An_Ony_Moose> what do I need to change there
[19:25] <Seven_Six_Two> Samual, there is SWAT
[19:25] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: I only have "Show the screen.." option enabled
[19:26] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: unmark list of users there
[19:26] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, same here
[19:26] <An_Ony_Moose> oh right
[19:26] <kerneloops_> hm

[19:26] <Seven_Six_Two> Samual, and GADMIN
[19:26] <Samuel_> i've just found what i was looking for
[19:26] <Samuel_> system-config-samba
[19:26] <kerneloops_> and check /etc/gdm/custom.conf file again make sure the line was added
[19:26] <Samuel_> basic but it works
[19:27] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: the list of users option wont show any username thats not that you want
[19:27] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, ok
[19:27] <kerneloops_> i think :p
[19:27] <j_mckinzie> hello all
[19:28] <j_mckinzie> i have a weird problem

[19:28] <j_mckinzie> i have a video card with hdmi out but want my sound output to go through the analog on the back of my pc....how do i accomplish this?
[19:28] <j_mckinzie> hdmi sound works fine
[19:29] <j_mckinzie> but that sound device is the only one present
[19:29] <j_mckinzie> (the HDMI one)
[19:29] <j_mckinzie> any ideas?
[19:29] <j_mckinzie> i have a video card with hdmi out but want my sound output to go through the analog on the back of my pc....how do i accomplish this?
[19:30] <GuyCanada> hey guys, im having an issue where sometimes when i boot up the window borders dont show up, i cant click to exit programs or minimize windows
[19:30] <An_Ony_Moose> j_mckinzie, try going to the sound preferences, output tab. There should be multiple devices to select from
[19:30] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: check http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=kPLfZhEh *username* is your regular username dont add the * :p
[19:30] <GuyCanada> usually its fixed by alt+prntscrn+k and signing back in but now its not working
[19:30] <j_mckinzie> An - there isn't
[19:30] <An_Ony_Moose> GuyCanada, can you open a terminal? If yes, try running metacity --replace
[19:30] <j_mckinzie> just the hdmi output device
[19:30] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, I don't want an automatic login?
[19:31] <GuyCanada> an_ony_moose thanks man that worked, is it a known issue tho? id liek to not have to do that all the time
[19:31] <An_Ony_Moose> oh wait it's set to false
[19:31] <foxoman>  /nick foxoman
[19:31] <An_Ony_Moose> GuyCanada, I don't know
[19:31] <GuyCanada> an_only_moose also now it seems that my compis stuff isnt working
[19:31] <j_mckinzie> Moose any idea how i get my analog device installed?
[19:32] <An_Ony_Moose> GuyCanada, metacity replaces compiz fusion
[19:32] <g00dness> who has installed ubuntu 10.10 netbook edition  ?
[19:32] <An_Ony_Moose> GuyCanada, try compiz --replace now
[19:32] <GuyCanada> an_only_moose, thanks
[19:32] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: did it work?
[19:33] <An_Ony_Moose> j_mckinzie, I'm not that experienced. For starters, run "lspci" and http://paste.ubuntu.com/ the results
[19:33] <j_mckinzie> moose, any idea how i get my analog sound driver installed?
[19:33] <GuyCanada> an_ony_moose, thanks that worked
[19:33] <An_Ony_Moose> GuyCanada, yw. I'm not sure how to fix it permanently though
[19:33] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, haven't tried it yet, as you can see I'm also helping other people ;)
[19:33] <An_Ony_Moose> gonna try it now
[19:34] <g00dness> An_Ony_Moose
[19:34] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: just logout and login
[19:34] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, no, I just use switch user then kill X
[19:34] <An_Ony_Moose> that way I can stay here in the IRC
[19:34] <botcity> g00dness: state the problem?
[19:35] <g00dness> take a look at this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iBwiKuE4-0U
[19:35] <g00dness> that's my problem
[19:35] <g00dness> :(
[19:35] <FloodBot1> g00dness: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:35] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: didnt know about that trick o.o
[19:35] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, I just noticed what it was: I didn't put the Exclude option in the [greeter] section. Thanks :D
[19:35] <kerneloops_> lol An_Ony_Moose
[19:35] <kerneloops_> oo
[19:35] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, just have to be careful with which X server I kill xD
[19:36] <g00dness> so botcity any suggestion ?
[19:36] <rwe> anyone have experience with the sis 191 ethernet adapter in ubuntu?
[19:36] <dryicebomb> g))dness, Natty is still in beta
[19:36] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: make sure show user list is checked in login screen settings
[19:37] <kerneloops_> *
[19:37] <dryicebomb> g00dness: Natty is still in beta
[19:37] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, I know ;P
[19:37] <An_Ony_Moose> thanks for helping
[19:37] <g00dness> dryicebomb it's netbook edition ....
[19:37] <g00dness> downloaded from ubuntu
[19:37] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: glad to help

[19:44] <soop> jt13 ... and just delete the windows partition you dont need it anymore
[19:45] <jt13> it's not soop. wait. if i delete it then how am i going to expand it?
[19:45] <An_Ony_Moose> jt13, don't actually delete it that was a joke
[19:45] <soop> jt13: get rid of windows ... problem solved ..... ;P
[19:45] <XoD> soop: then heshe won't have dual boot!
[19:45] <rwe> can someone help me with network issues in 10.10?
[19:45] <An_Ony_Moose> soop, don't make jokes like that.
[19:45] <jt13> An_Ony_Moose, oh i figured
[19:45] <soop> if its not mounted you should be able to resize it ...
[19:45] <jt13> An_Ony_Moose, don't worry i'm not dumb enough to do it
[19:45] <An_Ony_Moose> jt13: good ;P

[19:48] <_pg_> waseem: LOL
[19:48] <jt13> i have /dev/sda1 which is sytem reserved for win7, /dev/sda2 which is my windows os, /dev/sda3 which is a logical partition containing my ubuntu and the swap and below that is the extra 25 gigs of unallocated I pulled from my shared storage. I cant get the unallocated up next to windows so i can expand it
[19:48] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: google is the way
[19:48] <MiaFarrows> Is there any way to monitor the connection between an app and a device that is connected using port COM2?
[19:48] <_pg_> waseem: check out web of trust. may be of interest
[19:48] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, I figured ;)
[19:48] <waseem> _pg_: what made you lol though?
[19:48] <MiaFarrows> anyone?

[19:49] <xgt001> my laptop runs soo noisy in ubuntu
[19:49] <xgt001> it runs cool in windows
[19:49] <xgt001> any fixes??
[19:49] <jt13> yea give me a sec though. I am talking to you on one machine and working on another and for some reason it doesnt have wireless from the live cd. i have to plug in an ethernet
[19:50] <domedagen> How do record sound playing from my computer?
[19:50] <soop> xgt: need more symptoms ... whats noisy? your fan? your hd? ... what process are running?
[19:50] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, I just tried something... "while true ; do lsof /etc/gdm/custom.conf ; done" then switch user. It appears never to get read?
[19:50] <rwe> can you change the duplex on your network adapter somewhere?
[19:50] <domedagen> xgt001: What Windwos?
[19:51] <xgt001> soop: fan noise too much
[19:51] <domedagen> xgt001: XP?
[19:51] <xgt001> domedagen: win 7
[19:51] <sideone> fun with text manipulation. I need to grep for 2 different words within a file, match the lines and return the results on the same line. i am unsure how to join the results together so they read from the left (result1) to the right (result2) on the same row
[19:51] <SwedeMike> rwe: yes, ethtool
[19:51] <domedagen> xgt001: Pirate?

[19:52] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: dont know
[19:52] <xgt001> any fixes??
[19:52] <domedagen> xgt001: Then your laptop should be able to handle Ubuntu just as well
[19:52] <waseem> _pg_: haha i see
[19:52] <soop> aaargh exgtool: its noisy while in ubuntu right? .... open your system monitor and look at your running procii
[19:52] <XoD> sideone: i would use python. but you may try with 'pr' ... it's an old typsetting tool that can do columns
[19:53] <bmm> With: ufw allow "Apache Full", I get "ERROR: problem running" what does that mean?
[19:53] <sideone> cool thanks xod
[19:53] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, thanks for the help and accompaniment ;)
[19:53] <kerneloops_> drc: who records mp3 from internet radio if they cant download the songs lol
[19:53] <g00dness> botcity i can't open the terminal like that becouse is flashing .... i only can open terminal with ctrl+alt + F1
[19:53] <sideone> i remember pr now that you mention it.
[19:53] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: if it didnt work :x
[19:53] <xgt001> soop: no my ram consumption is very less in ubuntu bt still lotta noise :(
[19:54] <g00dness> botcity  tail -f /var/log/messages  didn't work ....
[19:54] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, that's no problem, it was interesting anyway :)
[19:54] <soop> xgt: cpu usage?
[19:54] <bmm> Oooh, found it. ufw does not work with VPS systems :) sorry for that.
[19:54] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, look what I found... http://library.gnome.org/admin/gdm/2.30/configuration.html.en#daemonconfig
[19:54] <xgt001> soop: 10percent
[19:54] <An_Ony_Moose> "The file <etc>/gdm/custom.conf supports the "[daemon]", "[security]", and "[xdmcp]" group sections."
[19:54] <drc> kerneloops_: He just wanted to know "How do record sound playing from my computer" This applet/app will do that.
[19:55] <kerneloops_> drc: yeah :P
[19:56] <XoD> sideone: try something like cat /etc/passwd /etc/passwd | pr --columns=2 -w 150 -l 10000 -T | less
[19:56] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_, brb, putting irssi in a screen rather than xchat, so I can stay online
[19:56] <jt13> soop  http://picpaste.com/Screenshot-tCEuq1ef.png

[19:57] <soop> jt13: k, I am officialy out of resources ... so I can't even open that link ha!
[19:57] <soop> lemme switch boxes myself
[19:57] <botcity> g00dness: is it a fresh install ? which net-book is it on ? how long has this been occurring ?
[19:57] <sideone> xod; the columns rock! thanks.. if i wanted to grab 2 lines from a file and output to pr, could i do something like grep -e 'foo|bar' file.txt | pr --columns=2 .. etc ?
[19:57] <jt13> soop ok
[19:57] <sideone> i cant seem to match both lines
[19:57] <drc> domedagen: Don't know, never used the app (only the old applet).
[19:57] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: if you want to x)
[19:58] <g00dness> botcity yes
[19:58] <g00dness> fresh install
[19:58] <g00dness> reinstall sry
[19:58] <g00dness> :P

[19:58] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_: are you interested? if you are I will, if you aren't I won't :P
[19:58] <XoD> sideone: if you have always one from col 1 and then one from col 2 alternating for sure, use '-a' option for 'across'
[19:58] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: yes
[19:59] <g00dness> botcity after i've install it , he's flashes like this when i wanna open something or when ai go with the mouse point on the left tab
[19:59] <XoD> sideone: else use two passes and tmp files...
[19:59] <lordmofisto> hello
[19:59] <botcity> g00dness: was the first install a success no problems ?
[20:00] <g00dness> success
[20:00] <drc> domedagen: You must have typed something wrong...the two lines noted in the article just worked for me
[20:00] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_: ok :D
[20:00] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: i didnt know you coud use _ in usernames
[20:00] <kerneloops_> oo
[20:00] <g00dness> i have a TOSHIBA SATELITE AS 60
[20:00] <kerneloops_> !caps

[20:01] <lordmofisto> i need help, i have an old HDD with I think Windows XP on it, I want to completely remove that and put ubuntu on, but i can't find out how to change the MBR. I can only see partitioning.
[20:01] <g00dness> botcity nope
[20:01] <bottiger_> can someone please post their unity xsession file?
[20:01] <kerneloops_> lordmofisto: use dban to wipe it out
[20:01] <Karen_m> !ff4
[20:01] <iceroot> lordmofisto: ubuntu will automaticly kill the mbr
[20:01] <kerneloops_> lordmofisto: or just install ubuntu over it
[20:01] <kerneloops_> :D
[20:01] <jt13> soop you back yet?
[20:01] <soop> jt13: my systems are taking a dump right now ... gimme a few ... but it should pretty much just work ... you said your running a live cd right ? you did actually boot off the live cd not running it from within windows?
[20:02] <lordmofisto> kerneloops boot and run from USB and terminal access?
[20:02] <botcity> g00dness: did you check sum the iso ?
[20:02] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_: do you know a command-line tool to work with NetworkManager?
[20:02] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: it dont thing there is
[20:02] <kerneloops_> think
[20:02] <XoD> kerneloops_: i think g00dness just wanted to make sure no typo happens and did a c&p from some headline :/
[20:02] <jt13> soop yes i am running live cd and i booted from it. i also turned of the swap
[20:03] <sideone> XoD thanks buddy
[20:03] <sideone> xod gotta learn a bit more grep first, then -a looks good :)
[20:03] <domedagen> drc: That is very intersting because I copy pasted. I run 64bit and the error i got was "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install audio-recorder"

[20:04] <sideone> XoD i love this stuff, been working in mysql all day with imports and other non-fun stuff :)
[20:04] <An_Ony_Moose> kerneloops_: well it seems you can use _ in usernames ;). and it also seems there is a tool, nmcli
[20:05] <Drknzz> Hi guys!
[20:05] <guido> hi?
[20:06] <botcity> g00dness: did you check-sum the iso ? also did you install to a laptop or netbook ?
[20:06] <Drknzz> I am on kubuntu maverik x64 and the nice bootscreen only worked when i booted the first time from the USB.... any ideas on how to restore it?
[20:07] <g00dness> botcity i've installed on laptop ...
[20:07] <lordmofisto> So does this sound right? Burn dban iso to CD, boot to CD erase HDD then remove disc, insert USB with installer and reboot to USB to install to clean hard drive?
[20:08] <sunday> sadeeb

[20:10] <superthebob> Hi all... I am logged into my wife's netbook via Ubuntu 10.10 installed on an SD Card.  I'm doing this because the root partition on her main HD is full, and I need to do some partitioning magic on it.  I was using gparted on one of the (insignificant) partitions, when the netbook died (idiot me forgot to plug in).  Now I can get back into the SD Card, but gparted will not open.  Any suggestions on what I could do?
[20:10] <superthebob> The "Disk Utility" will open, and I can see the remaining partitions.  I deleted the insignificant one with that
[20:11] <superthebob> I can also mount the remaining partitions and see the files, so I don't think anything's wrong with those
[20:11] <superthebob> running gparted from the command line doesn't help much (no real good error messages)
[20:11] <ChogyDan> Drknzz: sry, dunno
[20:11] <artuio> hello
[20:11] <artuio> anyone there ?
[20:12] <kerneloops_> An_Ony_Moose: Im back

[20:12] <Drknzz> ChogyDan: No sweat. Tahnks though :)
[20:12] <din> superthebob: why do you need gparted? just mount the root filesystem and free up some space.
[20:12] <artuio>  i can' t install post fix on ubuntu  i got this error : http://paste.ubuntu.com/585016/ kerneloops_
[20:12] <superthebob> In fact, here's what I get: http://pastebin.com/vgYHNrTp

[20:13] <superthebob> din: I have plenty of space after it, I just want to give it some more
[20:13] <superthebob> I tried re-installing gparted on the SD
[20:13] <din> superthebob: is it LVM?
[20:13] <artuio> hello

[20:13] <kerneloops_> just because my CPU is 32bit?
[20:14] <artuio> ok aarkerio but what 10485760 represente ?
[20:14] <din> superthebob: also try sudo gksu gparted
[20:14] <artuio> is it the capacity of the disk space will take on my machine for post fix ? aarkerio
[20:14] <aarkerio> artuio, I supose space in disk

[20:15] <artuio> is it represented in  bytes
[20:15] <sideone> can i make the end of the line using grep a delimiter? i need to export 2 line results from grep but i want the delimiter to be the end of the matched line, currently it is looking at white space for the delimiter
[20:15] <artuio> ?
[20:16] <artuio> i just only need to allow 10GB what i have to put ? aarkerio
[20:16] <drc> domedagen: there are probably several apps that will do what you want, I mentioned that one because it came to mind and I have used it in the past.  Good luck.
[20:16] <domedagen> drc: If that doesn't work my conclusion is that recording sound from a flash video in Ubuntu 64-bit is impossible
[20:16] <superthebob> din: same story
[20:16] <aarkerio> 10 gigabyte = 83 886 080 kilobits
[20:16] <graft> hi ho, does anyone know of an image viewer (e.g. mirage or eog) that lets me see image coordinates via mouseover?
[20:16] <g00dness> botcity toshiba sa60 -201
[20:17] <ChogyDan> sideone: maybe match the newline character: \n
[20:18] <sideone> ChogyDan; hmm good idea
[20:18] <sideone> ChogyDan; what would i use to output that properly? i think i may need to work with sed?
[20:18] <superthebob> I can run parted via commandline, but I don't know how to use it
[20:19] <ChogyDan> sideone: '\n' or "\\n"
[20:19] <artuio> working thanks aarkerio
[20:19] <sideone> thx
[20:19] <kerneloops_> In ubuntu server I can change screen resolution right?
[20:19] <aarkerio> anytime!
[20:19] <kerneloops_> ok im in #ubuntu-server now
[20:19] <drc> domedagen: Recording audio from flash video works with the app/let I mentioned...just did it, but I thought it was the install that stymied you?
[20:20] <superthebob> Apparently gparted is crashing on an assertion failure

[20:21] <sidd_mak> graft : haha
[20:21] <drc> domedagen: The perils you face by using such fancy 64 bit hardware :)
[20:21] <sidd_mak> graft : any idea about my prob??
[20:21] <graft> loga: you should be able to detect cdroms and probably usb drives
[20:21] <aarkerio> superthebob, do U want resize or create a partition?
[20:21] <graft> sidd_mak: can you clarify what the issue is?
[20:21] <graft> loga: did you install the extensions?
[20:22] <lordmofisto> speaking of partitions whats the appropriate size for the swap partition
[20:22] <aarkerio> lordmofisto, at least your RAM
[20:22] <loga> no sir
[20:23] <graft> loga: you should install guest additions, i think that might help out
[20:23] <botcity> g00dness: i have to go ; perhaps reinstall the version that worked originally .. i think its probably a video card issue
[20:23] <graft> loga: although cdrom it should be able to get anyway...
[20:23] <sidd_mak> graft : i m not able to access facebook through any browser on my machine
[20:23] <graft> sidd_mak: do you have a proxy configured? is it just facebook?
[20:24] <g00dness> ok botcity thnks for reply
[20:24] <superthebob> aarkerio, I have two partitions right now and some empty space.  The two partitions are squished together on the left and the empty space is on the right.  I want to resize both the existing partitions (and I imagine that will mean moving the second partition, since it is right up against the first)
[20:24] <loga> cdrom is also not detected

[20:24] <sidd_mak> graft : no proxy n its just facebook
[20:25] <joelixny> opiate, untar it and cd to the directory and do "make && sudo make install"
[20:25] <graft> sidd_mak: what does it do, exactly?
[20:25] <aarkerio> superthebob, backupm delete all partitions and create it again
[20:25] <opiate> ok thnx
[20:26] <superthebob> aarkerio, I have nothing to backup to
[20:26] <sidd_mak> graft : when i clear my cookies it happens to work till i login n reach to home page n then what ever i do the browser say waiting for facebook.com
[20:26] <joelixny> opiate, also check if there are any files called INSTALL or README
[20:26] <joelixny> They sometimes include more specific instructions if the program requires them
[20:27] <aarkerio> superthebob,  then what is the problem?     sudo cfdisk /dev/sda
[20:27] <joelixny> Does anyone have experience with editing GRUB2?
[20:27] <aarkerio> or hda if you HD is IDE and not SATA
[20:27] <superthebob> aarkerio,  what does that command do?
[20:27] <graft> sidd_mak: and there's the same behavior on every browser? That's weird... I assume you rebooted the machine
[20:28] <Sub_Zero> I've updated my iTouch to 4.2.1 & I'm getting the dbus error. I Googled and found a solution that worked for others but not for me.
[20:28] <aarkerio> show you the partitions       google: using cfdisk
[20:28] <superthebob> got it
[20:28] <superthebob> aarkerio, can I use it to resize/move?
[20:29] <aarkerio> nop
[20:29] <aarkerio> you can use:  parted - The GNU Parted disk partition resizing program
[20:29] <chobito01> ubottu: chobito01
[20:30] <superthebob> aarkerio,  :(  I don't think I'm experienced enough to safely use parted

[20:34] <aarkerio> what kind of data?

[20:39] <kerneloops_> kz3: right click the file and make it executable
[20:39] <genii-around> kerneloops_: xrandr
[20:39] <superthebob> aarkerio,  it is
[20:39] <kerneloops_> genii-around: that is GUI i think

[20:47] <fackamato> Hi guys, I could use some fdisk help. I'm trying to recreate my extended and logical partition (to make them smaller) but fdisk will not let me.  in sectors, sda2 start 501758, end 625141759, type extended. sda5 start 501760, end 625141759, type linux
[20:47] <fackamato> As you can see the start sector for the logical sda5 is 501760. If I delete it in fdisk and choose to create a new partition, with the same number (5), the start sector cannot be lower than 501821 :(
[20:48] <fackamato> and that would corrupt the stuff on the partition.
[20:49] <freeburn> i kind of think wubi installation should not be promoted...

[20:51] <skutr34> Hey
[20:51] <skutr34> I can't connect to the internet on ubuntu
[20:51] <freeburn> i just fear that it can backfire the very idea of "introduction:
[20:52] <galamar> aarkerio, how come? cause i use those in my passwords and kinda need to be able to make them........ and what is that function properly called?
[20:52] <Tactix> skutr34 what u using now :P
[20:52] <skutr34> I choose my network and it says connection established but I still am not connecte
[20:52] <SwedeMike> nerdy_kid: CLOSE_WAIT is a normal operational state for TCP after the connection has been closed.
[20:52] <dfh> skule, ping IP of your router?
[20:52] <skutr34> Tactix: my phone
[20:52] <freeburn> skutr34: how  do u usually connect to internet...i mean dsl/modem/adsl...how?
[20:52] <Tactix> skutr34 DHCP or static ip?
[20:52] <dfh> skule, oops sorry
[20:52] <nerdy_kid> SwedeMike: ok thanks :)
[20:52] <Tactix> have you checked ifconfig?
[20:52] <skutr34> Uhhhh
[20:52] <skutr34> No
[20:53] <skutr34> Lol
[20:53] <dfh> skutr34, ping IP of your router?
[20:53] <skutr34> Idk
[20:53] <skutr34> Lo
[20:53] <FloodBot1> skutr34: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:53] <skutr34> Lol
[20:53] <Tactix> open a terminal skutr34 and type ifconfig
[20:53] <Tactix> look for eth0
[20:53] <Tactix> and the associated IP
[20:53] <skutr34> No command iconfig
[20:54] <ikonia> ifconfig
[20:54] <freeburn> Tactix: he uses his phone...may be serial modem...
[20:54] <Tactix> you will also see l0 on <IP_ADDRESS> which is your network loopback
[20:54] <freeburn> ifconfig -a
[20:54] <ikonia> lo not l0
[20:54] <Tactix> type lo
[20:54] <skutr34> Same thing
[20:54] <Tactix> loopback
[20:54] <Tactix> :)
[20:54] <skutr34> Iconfig is not a command
[20:54] <ikonia> skutr34: sudo ifconfig
[20:54] <ikonia> skutr34: "ifconfig" not "Ifconfig" or "fconfig"
[20:54] <kerneloops_> skutr34: lowercase=
[20:54] <freeburn> or sudo /sbin/ifconfig
[20:54] <kerneloops_> :)
[20:54] <ikonia> skutr34: it's case sensitive, "ifconfig"
[20:55] <freeburn> "smells like command.com"
[20:55] <freeburn> :)
[20:55] <skutr34> K what am I looking for
[20:55] <tjiggi_fo> galamar, see compose key - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ComposeKey
[20:55] <mbeierl> galamar: in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Preferences, Layout Tab, Options.  There is the ability to choose your "compose key" which allows you to do things like " c + , " = ç
[20:56] <skutr34> Tactix
[20:56] <skutr34> What am I looking for
[20:56] <skutr34> ?
[20:56] <Tactix> eth0 as adapter and look for an ip adress either 192.* or 10.* on a local network
[20:56] <ChapterNZ> anyone setup a thermal printer using cups?
[20:56] <freeburn> skutr34: look for your ip
[20:56] <mbeierl> galamar: I use the "menu" button the one that in MS Windows acts like a right-click as my compose key...
[20:56] <skutr34> I don't see any ips
[20:57] <skutr34> I just installed ubuntu like 5 mins ago and there is already a problem
[20:57] <Tactix> skutr34 for me if i do "ifconfig: i have --> eth0 init addr: <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:57] <Tactix> what does it say with you
[20:58] <freeburn> tactix:if he uses phone then his ip will be under ppp
[20:58] <aarkerio> skutr34, is a wired connection?
[20:58] <skutr34> There's an inet addr <IP_ADDRESS> under lo
[20:58] <skutr34> And no
[20:58] <Tactix> freeburn, im guessing hes using his phone cause no inets on his desktop/laptop
[20:58] <freeburn> aarkerio:its a mobile phone, i guess its serial modem
[20:59] <skutr34> You guys trying to get my ip or something lol
[20:59] <Tactix> skutr34, the 127 address is your adapter itself
[20:59] <skutr34> Ok
[20:59] <dfh> skutr34, yeah your local...
[20:59] <mgolisch> does anyone know of a interactive tui client for networkmanager?
[20:59] <mbeierl> galamar: this should help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ComposeKey
[21:00] <Tactix> if you do not see eth0 you have to enable your network
[21:00] <skutr34> I just restarted computer
[21:00] <soreau> skutr34: How does your computer connect to the internet? With ethernet cable or wireless?
[21:00] <soop> mgolisch: what are you trying to do?
[21:00] <freeburn> skutr34:did you use the mobile Internet tab of the network manager
[21:00] <skutr34> It said connection established
[21:00] <skutr34> To my network
[21:00] <mbeierl> galamar:  does any of that help?
[21:00] <freeburn> i think his network is connected to some unusable wifi
[21:00] <aarkerio> skutr34,  is wireless?
[21:00] <soreau> skutr34: So it's working?
[21:01] <skutr34> Yes and no
[21:01] <soreau> ! details | skutr34
[21:01] <Tactix> skutr34 - try this "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[21:01] <aarkerio> what model/brand id your wireless card?
[21:01] <freeburn> thats what is happening here
[21:02] <zatan> Hi how is calling that small gnome-panel ? http://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_1QSDkzYY2vc/TWZ34S45D_I/AAAAAAAADIU/_AUZeAEh1yg/awn-notification-daemon-applet.png
[21:02] <freeburn> skutr34: does the wifi network need any proxy or anything?
[21:02] <skutr34> Ok I ran that command
[21:02] <mgolisch> soop: id like to be able to change my connection in an interactive way using a keyboard only, i have my touchpad disabled most of the time, and its realy annoying to enable it just to select anothe network in nm
[21:02] <Tactix> do ifconfig again
[21:02] <skutr34> No
[21:02] <Tactix> and look for eth0 again
[21:02] <freeburn> if thats the case, even you are connected to the wifi you will not be able to use internet
[21:03] <skutr34> Well my brother is connected on his laptop fine
[21:03] <skutr34> So its obviously ubuntu
[21:03] <Tactix> you dont have static ip configured on your router do you??
[21:03] <aarkerio> Tactix, if is a wireless card there is not eth0 device
[21:03] <skutr34> Idk
[21:03] <Tactix> check, not aware it was wireless
[21:04] <freeburn> skutr34:something is wrong in your network configuration
[21:04] <aarkerio> ok, skutr34 you need know your model wireless card
[21:04] <guntbert> !who | skutr34
[21:04] <mrdeb> why is network manager excluded from squeeze?
[21:04] <aarkerio> there is some firmware you need get with apt
[21:04] <skutr34> idk what that is I am at a hotel
[21:05] <skutr34> You know what why don't I reinstall ubuntu
[21:05] <galamar> mbeierl, um not yet it just makes it ignore the first key i press after hold down the compose button (168 just produces 68) but i havent looked on the web page yet
[21:05] <freeburn> skutr34:is it a free wifi or you are sniffing for someone else's network?
[21:05] <dfh> mrdeb, this is ubuntu not debian join #debian on oftc.net
[21:05] <Tactix> lol skutr34, you can do that, but that option learn u nothing :D
[21:05] <skutr34> Freeburn: its free wifi
[21:06] <skutr34> Tactix: meh
[21:06] <Tactix> network problems could be soooo specific
[21:06] <freeburn> skutr34: so it does not need proxies?or wep passwords?
[21:06] <skutr34> No
[21:07] <skutr34> This is stupid
[21:07] <skutr34> Lol first time with ubuntu can't get the internet to work
[21:07] <Tactix> you have dual boot skutr34?
[21:07] <Tactix> windows?
[21:07] <skutr34> Yes
[21:07] <skutr34> Windows 7
[21:07] <skutr34> Ftw
[21:07] <Tactix> does it work under windows?
[21:07] <skutr34> Yes
[21:07] <Tactix> boot your windows
[21:07] <Tactix> and check your IP settings there
[21:08] <skutr34> I am
[21:08] <kerneloops_> !enter
[21:08] <Tactix> to see if they match your ubuntu wifi settings
[21:08] <skutr34> Ok
[21:08] <skutr34> Stop sending ubottu at me please
[21:08] <Tactix> skutr34, also look under your AP datails, for like freeburn said, any proxies or WEP/WPA2 keys
[21:09] <aarkerio> skutr34, , in1998  you need change C lines to get your video card to see shitty video

[21:19] <dsrogers> I don't think this is possible without typing 3 passphrases, correct?
[21:19] <psymin> dsrogers, I recommend not encrypting your system partitions :)
[21:20] <freeburn> dsrogers:encrypting your home is enough
[21:20] <psymin> dsrogers, I believe there is a way to query for the passphrase off of insertable media like a USB stick but I haven't tried it .. that way you wouldn't need to type it
[21:20] <galamar> ¿ haha bye thanks everyone
[21:20] <dsrogers> yes, I've thought about that.  However you can't have the media itself encrypted.
[21:20] <dfh> freeburn, enough for whom? /var/www /tmp logs... depends all on the threat model
[21:21] <dsrogers> yes.  it's not enough for me.
[21:21] <dsrogers> must have pretty much full disk encryption
[21:21] <dsrogers> if I can query removable media, then I can query a small partition that holds the keys.
[21:21] <dsrogers> and encrypt that.
[21:21] <lordmofisto> I don't want to sound nosey but why would you want full disk encryption?
[21:21] <dfh> dsrogers, alternate installer should be able to do lvm + cryptsetup
[21:22] <freeburn> is true crypt availabe?
[21:22] <dsrogers> dfh: not sure it plays nicely with multiple drives in the LVM:.
[21:22] <red2kic> dsrogers: It is possible. Write a script that'll load the keys for your hard drives. Name it keyscript.sh or something. It might be easier if you just go ahead and type them all one at a time. :P
[21:22] <dfh> freeburn, yes but not for system partitions
[21:23] <dsrogers> red2kic: yes, that is what I was pursuing before I realized I should check to see if it has been done already
[21:23] <lordmofisto> is there a terminal command to get in to the MBR?
[21:23] <red2kic> dsrogers: It have been done. I personally vouched I have done this in the past.
[21:23] <psymin> dsrogers, that would work, one phrase to decrypt the partition that has the other phrases .. good thinking :)
[21:23] <terry_> lordmofisto: What do you want to get?
[21:23] <scadalvandal> hi, i am trying to install my logitech dual action controller using this tutorial http://linuxgamingtoday.wordpress.com/2008/01/24/install-and-use-usb-based-gamepads-in-ubuntu/, but when i try to install jscalibrator, it says there is no such package
[21:23] <aeon-ltd> scadalvandal: look for a ppa or compile it
[21:23] <dsrogers> psymin: yeah, I have to hack initramfs though.  which is fine.  Was just checking to see if it had been done already
[21:23] <lordmofisto> terry_ dban isn't working and I want to completely erase my hard drive before installing ubuntu to it
[21:24] <red2kic> dsrogers: http://wejn.org/how-to-make-passwordless-cryptsetup.html
[21:24] <scadalvandal> aeon-ltd: elaborate please, thank you for helping and suggesting
[21:24] <terry_> lordmofisto: Well, you can zero it out...  That what you want
[21:24] <dfh> lordmofisto, you can view and edit it with e.g. hexedit /dev/sda
[21:24] <aeon-ltd> !ppa | scadalvandal
[21:24] <lordjj> Can someone help me PLEASE? I can't boot in graphical mode: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1713147
[21:24] <aeon-ltd> scadalvandal: compiling, involves getting the source then building it
[21:24] <psymin> lordmofisto, dd should be able to wipe it
[21:25] <scadalvandal> aeon-ltd: thanks
[21:25] <dsrogers> red2kic: thanks.  That's most of what I need.
[21:25] <dfh> lordmofisto, you can erase it with a ubuntu live cd and dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=something appropriate <insert disclaimer about this is dangerous and will eat your data...>
[21:25] <terry_> lordmofisto: If you just want to zero it out, just do dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=512
[21:26] <terry_> lordmofisto: where sda is the hard drive in question.
[21:26] <scadalvandal> aeon-ltd: i dont see any ppa's i dont mind compiling, can you give me a link to a tutorial?
[21:27] <dsrogers> also, AFAIK, there is no practical way to decrypt two drives before starting the LVM.
[21:27] <scadalvandal> For those who dont know here is what i posted earlier --hi, i am trying to install my logitech dual action controller using this tutorial http://linuxgamingtoday.wordpress.com/2008/01/24/install-and-use-usb-based-gamepads-in-ubuntu/, but when i try to install jscalibrator, it says there is no such package
[21:27] <lordmofisto> the problem I am having is that I can install to the hard drive but when i reboot it goes to the grub-rescue and won't boot
[21:27] <Jordan_U> lordmofisto: zeroing the hard drive won't help with that at all.
[21:28] <Jordan_U> lordmofisto: Do you have more than one hard drive in the machine?
[21:28] <terry_> lordmofisto: That souds like just a problem with grub.  Can probably be fixed.
[21:28] <lordmofisto> terry_ how do I fix that?
[21:28] <terry_> lordmofisto: What version of Ubuntu did you install?
[21:29] <lordmofisto> terry_: 10.10
[21:29] <aeon-ltd> !compile | scadalvandal
[21:29] <aeon-ltd> hmm ubottu broken
[21:29] <aeon-ltd> ?
[21:29] <dfh> !grub2
[21:29] <terry_> lordmofisto: Are there options in the grub menu when is about to boot?
[21:29] <aeon-ltd> !compile | scadalvandal
[21:30] <psymin> Alright, I'll try a different question.  Can anyone recommend a current laptop (one that is brand spanking new) with a good video card that works with the proprietary drivers?
[21:30] <Sub_Zero> I'm getting the dbus error when connecting my 4.2.1 iTouch to my PC. Yes I've tried "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pmcenery/ppa;sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" but still no joy
[21:30] <guntbert> aeon-ltd: no, why? she answered the first time already
[21:30] <terry_> lordmofisto: Maybe it's just set to the wrong kernel as default.
[21:30] <scadalvandal> aeon-ltd: i know nothing about programming
[21:30] <lordmofisto> terry_: not sure really this is my first Ubuntu install, and first desktop install. I have used Pardus via VirtualBox which installed fine
[21:30] <scadalvandal> aeon-ltd: do i actually need to do this?
[21:31] <aeon-ltd> guntbert: sorry, i was cut off with a lag of 15-20 seconds and had to quit and recconnect
[21:31] <riptly> Does the x64 Ubuntu 10.10 work for Intel i7?
[21:31] <terry_> lordmofisto: Did you do a normal install or wubi
[21:31] <aeon-ltd> scadalvandal: if there is no other way to install or obtain the package
[21:31] <Jordan_U> lordmofisto: Do you have more than one hard drive in the machine?
[21:31] <guntbert> aeon-ltd: no problem :)
[21:31] <aeon-ltd> scadalvandal: what is it called?
[21:31] <lordmofisto> terry_: normal install
[21:31] <psymin> scadalvandal, that article is a few years old, maybe the package name changed
[21:32] <terry_> !grib2 | lordmofisto

[21:32] <terry_> !grub2 | lordmofisto
[21:32] <scadalvandal> psymin: thanks brah
[21:32] <lordmofisto> terry_: I selected for the install to use the entire partition and erase all the data
[21:32] <psymin> scadalvandal, which Ubuntu version are you using again?
[21:32] <scadalvandal> psymin: i'll search something up, 10.10

[21:36] <neves> hey! I want to increment a character. How can I do that ? for instance, i declare C1='A' and I want to increment C1 in order to have C1='B'
[21:36] <Jordan_U> lordmofisto: Assuming you haven't zeroed the drive yet just boot from the hard drive. You can enter commands at the "rescue> " prompt.
[21:37] <Sub_Zero> I'm getting the dbus error when connecting my 4.2.1 iTouch to my PC. Yes I've tried "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pmcenery/ppa;sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" but still no joy.

[21:40] <lordmofisto> jordan_u: Ok apparently whatever I had tried previously had deleted the partition, so I have no bootable media other then my USB drive. Should I reinstall and get to the grub-rescue prompt?
[21:40] <oCean> neves: hava look here<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Also, ask in #bash
[21:41] <neves> join #bash
[21:41] <Jordan_U> lordmofisto: Yes.
[21:41] <dfh> lordmofisto, a reinstall will write a new grub to the mbr and fix it for you, all data previously on the disk will of course be lost
[21:42] <Dattebayo> how can i sync my htc to linux?
[21:44] <lordmofisto> dfh: so far it hasn't. I have tried installing several times with automatic and manual partitioning
[21:44] <ohzie> !question
[21:45] <dfh> lordmofisto, that very odd, never seen anything like that on a single disk system, can you provide more details, it's a physical installation not a VM?
[21:45] <lordmofisto> ok before I go any further, let me make sure I am doing the allocate drive space part correct.
[21:45] <wildintellect> anyone know where to find a list of all language codes a locales with each?
[21:46] <lordmofisto> i want to erase and use the entire disk correct even if a previous install of windows is on there (i don't want windows anymore)
[21:46] <mang0> have you backed up?
[21:46] <lordmofisto> dfh: correct physical installation
[21:46] <psymin> lordmofisto, sounds like you might want to use fdisk
[21:46] <psymin> if you have no partitions the installer won't see them :)
[21:46] <lordmofisto> mang0: don't care about backing up its a drive thats been sitting in my desk for like 3 years
[21:47] <mang0> I would look through it first to make sure
[21:47] <itaylor57> wildintellect: http://www.science.co.il/language/locale-codes.asp
[21:47] <dfh> lordmofisto, do you use the desktop/graphical installer? If you leave everything at default (automatic, the whole drive...) it should "just work" if not there's some strange bug going on
[21:48] <lordmofisto> dfh: ok let me try that again.
[21:48] <Ziber> in dpkg -l, whats 'rc' versus 'ii' mean?
[21:48] <wildintellect> itaylor57, thanks but that list seems incomplete
[21:48] <itaylor57> wildintellect: http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php might be better
[21:49] <rwe> anyone wanna help an ubunto noob?

[21:49] <wildintellect> itaylor57, I already looked at that one, also incomplete, lacks the locales within a language group

[21:50] <mang0> !ask | rwe

[21:50] <bastidrazor> !register > lasha
[21:50] <robertzaccour> is there something that works like Pinnacle Studio for Linux?
[21:51] <oCean> Ziber: if you type dpkg -l | head you will see the meaning of those in the first lines of the output. RC means, removed, but configfiles remain
[21:51] <The_Rufus> help. When I do a "Sudo mdadm --detail /dev/md0" it tells me that out of my 5 HDD's, 4 are active, 4 are working, 1 is failed and 1 is spare. Any reasons for this
[21:51] <The_Rufus> ?
[21:51] <lasha> hmm ok guys thank you
[21:51] <lordmofisto> If I chose side by side partitioning can I change that later if the installation is successful?
[21:51] <purpzey> Can someone help me out, my harddrive won't mount, it is failing the disk-check at startup. I did not make any changes to my hardware or software config. this occurred after restart.
[21:51] <kerneloops_> How do I upload files to a SSH server?
[21:52] <dfh> kerneloops_, man scp
[21:52] <lordjj> Can someone tell me how to mount a USB drive through terminal and copy files to it?
[21:52] <dfh> lordjj, man mount; man cp
[21:52] <alberto_> hey guys!
[21:52] <lordjj> Can someone tell me how to mount a USB drive through terminal and copy files to it? I can't boot graphical mode, so I need to backup my files and format.
[21:53] <kerneloops_> dfh: why would i need mount to upload
[21:53] <oCean> dfh: pointing to manual pages is not helpful
[21:53] <lordjj> dfh: can you tell me pore specific commands
[21:53] <kerneloops_> oh forget
[21:53] <kerneloops_> dfh: and yeah you are not helping at all I know manual command
[21:54] <lordjj> dfh: I didn't know what to write after "mount"
[21:54] <lordjj> dfh: also what does a directory outside the filesystem look like?
[21:54] <red2kic> kerneloops_: You could use scp to upload to a ssh server if you knew where you want the files to go.
[21:54] <dfh> kerneloops_, ? mount wasn't directed at you and scp is what you want, the man page tells you everything you need to know
[21:54] <kerneloops_> dfh: <kerneloops_> oh forget
[21:55] <oCean> lordjj: usually, after you connected the usb drive, the output of 'dmesg' command will show you what device is created (for example /dev/sdb or /dev/sdc) Check that first
[21:55] <oCean> dfh: users are not here to get referred to some manual page.
[21:55] <purpzey> Can someone help me out, my harddrive won't mount, it is failing the disk-check at startup. I did not make any changes to my hardware or software config. this occurred after restart.
[21:55] <dfh> lordjj, sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /path/to/mount/point if it's FAT you need -o uid=username,gid=username,
[21:56] <kerneloops_> dfh: thanks for point out scp though ;)
[21:56] <dfh> lordjj, sdb1 is just as an example,  tail|dmesg will tell you what device you just connected
[21:57] <lordjj> dfh: what do you mean by: /path/to/mount/point
[21:57] <kerneloops_> lordjj: it's just an exampple
[21:57] <dfh> lordjj, it can be anything you want like /mnt or /home/lordjj/myusbstick
[21:58] <kerneloops_> lordjj: you should create a folder first then mount on it
[21:58] <kerneloops_> or use /mnt
[21:58] <dfh> lordjj, there is no such thing as "outside the filesystem" in Linux everthing is mounted within the "/" root filesystem
[21:59] <lordjj> kerneloops, what do you mean create a folder first?
[22:00] <red2kic> "mkdir -p /mnt/Lazy"
[22:00] <ActionParsnip> red2kic: that will need sudo
[22:00] <lordjj> kerneloops: you mean that's what the mentioned command does?
[22:00] <red2kic> ActionParsnip: Heh. Unless you're in root! ;3
[22:00] <ActionParsnip> red2kic: if you are root and use sudo it won't affect it, it's a good coverall
[22:00] <lordjj> dfh: so after mounting, what will the directory to the USB drive look like?
[22:01] <dfh> lordjj, same as E:\ in windows but at /mnt/Lazy/
[22:02] <dfh> (again, just examples)
[22:02] <red2kic> lordjj: It looks like whatever you mounted it in. E:\Documents --> /mnt/Lazy/Documents

[22:03] <lordjj> dfh: can u write an example where you mount a USB drive and copy a folder from home to it?
[22:04] <kerneloops_> casper_por: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:abogani/ppa
[22:04] <kerneloops_> then sudo apt-get updatr
[22:04] <kerneloops_> then sudo apt-get update
[22:04] <kerneloops_> then install the package
[22:04] <red2kic> An example? Heh. I read that as "I want you to tell me explicity how to copy my home directory"
[22:04] <ActionParsnip> kerneloops_: sudo apt-get install linux-lowlatency
[22:04] <artuio> hello
[22:04] <kerneloops_> yes ActionParsnip lol
[22:04] <kerneloops_> k
[22:04] <ActionParsnip> kerneloops_: if you use that kernel then any issue you get will NOT be supported here
[22:04] <artuio> is it possible to cat server file at same time ?
[22:04] <artuio> several
[22:05] <kerneloops_> ActionParsnip: write to him :P
[22:05] <askreet> artuio, cat takes any  number of files as arguments and displays them in order.
[22:05] <ActionParsnip> kerneloops_: oops, my bad. casper_por see above ;)
[22:05] <kerneloops_> casper_por: install it using sudo apt-get install linux-lowlatency
[22:05] <lordjj> red2kic: Well yeah, that's be helpful
[22:05] <vadal> how do I install the Logitech dual action controller, I am using 10.10 Ubuntu, but this tutorial doesn't work http://linuxgamingtoday.wordpress.com/2008/01/24/install-and-use-usb-based-gamepads-in-ubuntu/
[22:05] <casper_por> have done everythin, but apt-get didn't find package linux-lowlatency
[22:05] <vadal> please help
[22:05] <askreet> artuio, you should try 'man cat', as well
[22:05] <artuio> well
[22:05] <kerneloops_> casper_por: did you enabled extra repositories?
[22:06] <casper_por> yes
[22:06] <ActionParsnip> casper_por: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:abogani/ppa; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y install linux-lowlatency
[22:06] <kerneloops_> :) ActionParsnip
[22:06] <artuio> now my question is cat 2 file next to next ?
[22:06] <dfh> lordjj, http://paste.ubuntu.com/585064/
[22:06] <lordjj> dfh, thanks :)
[22:06] <ActionParsnip> artuio: there is the diff command if you want to compare 2 files
[22:06] <rockets> Anybody here using "openconnect", the cisco anyconnect plugin for network manager? I can't seem to find the actual option to create a Cisco Anyconnect VPN, only PPTP :(
[22:07] <red2kic> dfh: Verbose! He might think nothing is happening!
[22:07] <Martin8412> Have you restarted network manager rockets?
[22:07] <askreet> artuio, if you have two files, called 'foo' and 'bar', and they each contain two lines like "line".  Then you run `cat foo bar`, you will see 4 lines which say "line" -- is that what you mean?
[22:07] <artuio> no
[22:07] <artuio> that one i know well askreet
[22:07] <rockets> Martin8412, I've restarted my computer actually.
[22:07] <askreet> i guess i'm not sure what you're asking, artuio
[22:08] <artuio> i think ActionParsnip get my point
[22:08] <rockets> I've installed vpn plugins in the past for NM and generally the new option shows up right away.
[22:08] <artuio> i just only need to compare several file next to nex
[22:08] <Martin8412> rockets: And you are sure you have installed the acutal plugin, and not just openconnect :)
[22:08] <artuio> let me check his command
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> artuio: all i can suggest is using screen, or 2 terminals
[22:08] <askreet> ah, you want to display them side-by-side -- diff will show differences between two files, but not the contents of each file
[22:08] <lordmofisto> jordan_U: you still there?
[22:08] <rockets> Martin8412, I don't see any related software to install . . .
[22:08] <Jordan_U> lordmofisto: Yes.
[22:09] <dfh> lordjj, OK so add a "-v" to the cp command and if you have special characters you might tell the mount command to use utf8, ask if you need details
[22:09] <askreet> there are some GUI programs which show diffs in a more side-by-side manner.  check out 'meld'
[22:09] <lordmofisto> jordan_U: ok I am at the grub-rescue prompty
[22:09] <askreet> it will show which lines are missing, added, etc very clearly
[22:09] <Jordan_U> lordmofisto: What is the output of "ls"?
 well, everythin done well, except apt-get install linux-lowlatency. It's still wrte that there is no such package
[22:10] <Martin8412> rockets: I have the plugin installed myself, I have network-manager-openconnect network-manager-openconnect-gnome and openconnect installed :)
[22:10] <artuio> no diff not the correct one
[22:10] <rockets> Martin8412, Thanks! I'll check on those!
[22:11] <artuio> i need a command listing 2 files with all details next to next
[22:11] <lordmofisto> jordan_u: it says (fd0)
[22:11] <lordjj> dfh: if there are spaces in the folder names, I can use "" right?
[22:11] <rockets> Martin8412, ah, I see. If I search for anyconnect, only openconnect comes up, but if I search for openconnect, the rest come up. I appreciate your help sir.
[22:11] <casper_por> how can I check that at ppa needed files at one's places?
[22:11] <Martin8412> ;)
[22:11]  * andymcpants is so awesome because I could solve me problem using google and not write here :p

[22:11] <artuio> file1                file 2
[22:11] <dfh> lordjj, correct, or single quotes or you escape with "\"
[22:12]  * andymcpants buys the next round!
[22:12] <rockets> Martin8412, Basically I'm trying to get Evolution to connect to my company's exchange 2010 server remotely. They really need to get support for Exchange Web Services into evolution :(
[22:12] <linux3> yea!
[22:12] <lordmofisto> jordan_U: Floppy isn't hooked up (power and ribbon) and I am trying to boot from a pci ide card since the motherboards onboard IDE is shot
[22:13] <andymcpants> rockets: I think thunderbird has better exchange support. I used it on my previous work.
[22:13] <Fixo> "unsuported" motherboards can cause kernel panics ?
[22:13] <rockets> andymcpants, Thunderbird doesn't have *any* exchange support. What are you talking about?
[22:13] <rockets> andymcpants, It supports IMAP/POP sure, but that's not "exchange support"
[22:13] <rockets> <-- exchange admin here :P
[22:14] <askreet> rockets: sorry to hear that :/
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> rockets: can't you enable pop / imapi and connect to that
[22:14] <andymcpants> rockets: sorry I remembered it wrong, I was administrating mDaemon which is IMO a really bloated sucky server for M SBS
[22:14] <rockets> ActionParsnip, IMAP != IMAPI, two completely different htings.
[22:14] <Jordan_U> lordmofisto: The problem is that you have a buggy BIOS which is presenting the first partition of the drive as a floppy device. It's completely bizzarre irrational behavior that someone had to add extra code to purposly cause, yet it is none the less common.
[22:14] <rockets> There is no such thing as IMAPI
[22:14] <rockets> IMAP != IMAP
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> rockets: microsoft really need to permit other clients than crappy outlook to connect to their servers
[22:14] <rockets> ActionParsnip, they do.
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> rockets: you get the idea
[22:14] <askreet> artuio: you could use vim's split feature if you have vim-full installed.  open two files by `vi -O file1 file2`.
[22:15] <lordjj> btw, I somehow ruined my graphical interface, can someone take a look? : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1713147
[22:15] <rockets> ActionParsnip, Exchange fully supports IMAP/POP, any mail client can use it.
[22:15] <lordmofisto> jordan_u: that doesn't surprise me thats Dell for you
[22:15] <andymcpants> rockets: You can still use the web client if somethings urgent you know *nodding
[22:15] <ActionParsnip> rockets: then if evolution isn't suitable for yuor needs, use something else
[22:15] <askreet> artuio: then you can use the key sequence CTRL+w, w to change between windows.
[22:15] <ActionParsnip> rockets: there are plenty of capabale mail clients available in the default repos :)
[22:15] <rockets> ActionParsnip, Obviously but evolution includes full exchange support for 2003 and 2007.
[22:15] <artuio> perfect askreet
[22:16] <rockets> They just don't support 2010 remotely yet. They will.
[22:16] <_pg_> anyone in here use a dell mini 9?
[22:16] <Jordan_U> lordmofisto: If you "ls (fd0)/" do you see a list of files?
[22:16] <rockets> You're sort of misreading what Evolution does.
[22:16] <artuio> working fine thanks askreet
[22:16] <askreet> np artuio
[22:16] <ChrisBuchholz> What is the name of the package i will need to run qt4 apps?
[22:16] <ActionParsnip> rockets: just not 2010 I'm guessing?
[22:16] <rockets> ActionParsnip, not yet, no.
[22:16] <artuio> but when the file is in two different server what is the usage ?
[22:16] <rockets> ActionParsnip, There is an exchange 2010 plugin for 2010, but it only works locally or via VPN, since it uses standard MAPI not RPC over HTTP mapi.
[22:16] <ActionParsnip> rockets: then if you need that then evolution isn't suitable for the job
[22:17] <askreet> artuio, unless you have a mounted version of the remote file, you will have to copy it locally
[22:17] <rockets> ActionParsnip, alright, I'm tired of playing semantics with you.
[22:17] <rockets> Evolution is the defacto exchange client for Linux, it just hasn't been updated for 2010 yet.
[22:17] <lordmofisto> jordan_U: no i get an error "cannot get C/H/S values"
[22:17] <artuio> without mounting
[22:17] <artuio> with ssh i mean
[22:17] <rockets> And it's going to work fine as soon as I get my VPN working.
[22:17] <Jordan_U> lordmofisto: Could you join #grub?
[22:18] <andymcpants> rockets: You can always W(h)INE your way to the solution
[22:18] <robertzaccour> is there something that works like Pinnacle Studio for Linux? I need to capture audio and video from my dazzle and record it
[22:18] <askreet> artuio, so you need to ssh into two servers... can you not just open two terminals? ;)
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> rockets: where do you get that it's the defacto exchange client from exactly?
[22:18] <askreet> artuio, there are later versions of screen which support vertical split -- but i dont know how to use it since i'm using redhat at work :(((
[22:18] <Gnea> robertzaccour: what's a dazzle?
[22:18] <rockets> ActionParsnip, are you serious? It's the *ONLY* exchange client for Linux . . .
[22:18] <andymcpants> robertzaccour: video editing software ubuntu @ google
[22:18] <_pg_> anyone using a dell mini 9/10?
[22:18] <robertzaccour> Gnea, i use it to capture audio and video from my ps3 and record it
[22:19] <rockets> In terms of full exchange, not just mail access.
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> rockets: doesn't make it defacto
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> rockets: its the: de jure client
[22:19] <lordmofisto> jordan_U: ok I am there
[22:19] <rockets> ActionParsnip, again with the semantics.
[22:19] <robertzaccour> andybe, what about google?
[22:19] <Gnea> robertzaccour: so you have the files already, you just want to know what to uses to edit them with?
[22:19] <Dusting> Hello
[22:19] <Dusting> Is there any app to communicate with a COM modem?
[22:19] <robertzaccour> Gnea, I'm trying to capture the audio and video. vlc seems to do the job but its not in color
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> rockets: if you start throwing ridiculous statements like that then I will query them
[22:20] <th0r> Dusting: minicom
[22:20] <Dusting> I need to send AT commands to a Nokia phone connected via USB
[22:20] <rockets> ActionParsnip, whatever man.
[22:20] <Gnea> robertzaccour: perhaps I'm not understanding - you've capturing it on the PS3? how does the PS3 work into this?
[22:20] <artuio> but it should be something for that
[22:20] <robertzaccour> Gnea, capturing from the ps3
[22:20] <critical_max> robertzaccour, Cinelarra, Kino, Avidemux are some video editing apps you want to look at
[22:21] <artuio> vi -O file1  ssh root@domain:\file2
[22:21] <artuio> something like scp
[22:21] <Gnea> robertzaccour: again, this makes no sense. where does the file get saved to?
[22:21] <critical_max> robertzaccour, cinelarra does video capture, the others probably do too
[22:21] <Gnea> robertzaccour: I don't own a PS3, consider me a total noob in that arena
[22:21] <robertzaccour> Gnea, my computer
[22:21] <artuio> i don't know if my syntax is correct : >	vi -O file1 ssh root@domain:\file2
[22:22] <askreet> artuio, you can't ssh on the vi command line -- it will try to open many files called "ssh", "root@domain:\file2" ;)
[22:22] <critical_max> artuio: it is not good practice to ssh to root
[22:22] <Gnea> robertzaccour: okay, then yeah, avidemux, pitivi, kino, audacity ought to get the job done
[22:22] <askreet> artuio, why not scp the file, then view it?
[22:23] <Gnea> robertzaccour: personally, I go with avidemux
[22:23] <critical_max> gnea: i see avidemux supports all 3 platforms now, that's a good sign :)
[22:23] <mariusz> ale...o co się rozchodzi?:-)
[22:23] <ActionParsnip> robertzaccour: Gnea: http://techcityinc.com/2009/02/04/top-10-free-video-editors-for-ubuntu-linux/
[22:23] <mili_cor> Hello!
[22:23] <Gnea> critical_max: I gave a presentation on it at a local LUG meeting recently, it supports quite a bit :)
[22:24] <artuio> yes that's an other possibility askreet
[22:24] <gniadekbarbara> helo
[22:24] <artuio> but what is the equivalent of that one
[22:24] <Gnea> it was a rather smooth talk when I had Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.04 running at the time
[22:24] <_pg_> can vmware fusion run netbook ubuntu w/unity?
[22:25] <askreet> artuio, there is no equivelant way to open a file on a remote system without first mounting that system via some network file system (NFS, SSHFS, etc), unless the editor supports ssh, which i do not believe vim does.
[22:25] <Gnea> _pg_: can it run Ubuntu?
[22:25] <critical_max> gnea, robertzaccour: i'm seeing both Avidemux and Cinelarra in a "top 10 open source software" list. good stuff.
[22:25] <robertzaccour> i'll try those thanks
[22:25] <_pg_> Gnea: it is complaining about not having some driver. vmware tools are installed and prop drivers are enabled
[22:25] <askreet> artuio, you may want to check out sshfs though, it will allow you to mount remote systems and modify the files as if they were local.
[22:25] <artuio> so with svi it is possible ?
[22:25] <Gnea> critical_max: I never got into cinelerra much, it used to have some issues
[22:25] <_pg_> Gnea: but as of yet it wont let me launch in unity mode
[22:26] <Gnea> _pg_: have you tried any other virtualization software, like virtualbox?
[22:26] <_pg_> Gnea: not yet, but fusion typically has more powerful options-at least in my experience
[22:26] <critical_max> gnea: looks like both were last updated around november 2010. i haven't used either for years
[22:27] <yang_> Hi all, I have a question on 32bit vs 64 bit. In the Ubuntu document, it recommends 64bit version, buy why the 32bit version is recommended in the download page?
[22:27] <mili_cor> I watch videos on Chrome 10 or Firefox 4 . If i reload the page or re-open the page the video starts from beginning to load (download) . My connection is slow but my computer is very good. I need to increase my cache memory for videos ( flash and html5 videos...) but i don't know how.. can someone please help me ? Thank you!
[22:27] <Gnea> critical_max: yeah, they're rather consistent, that's what I like about them
[22:27] <_pg_> yang_: how much ram do you have
[22:28] <rockets> mili_cor, that's not really a thing you do.
[22:28] <rockets> mili_cor, that's just how it works.
[22:28] <Gnea> _pg_: I gave up on vmware a few years ago when virtualbox started to give more solid results
[22:28] <_pg_> Gnea: touche
[22:28] <kerneloops_> (ot) mili_cor: where do you watch the html5 videos?
[22:28] <rockets> Gnea, you don't like vmware workstation? (aside from it being pricy), it's fairly awesome.
[22:28] <critical_max> mili_cor: check out "Flashget" to save them to your drive
[22:28] <rhys> does anyone here use apt-cacher-ng?
[22:28] <Gnea> _pg_: plus, virtualbox is in the repository, so we support it... and it's cross-platform
[22:28] <mili_cor> rockets: ? you mean there is no solution for this... but sometimes after i reload the page it is downloaded already but sometimes not. i think it is something like cache...
[22:29] <red2kic> mili_cor: YouTube sucks with its buffer/caches. Use youtube-dl
[22:29] <critical_max> gnea, _pg_: virtualbox has been much simpler to use than VMWare since VMWare's architecture change a couple years ago. recommend virtualbox for development use.
[22:29] <yang_> _pg_:4GB
[22:29] <dfh> yang_, I think 64bit is preselected and recommended for servers because they usually got the hardware and workload to benefit from 64bit, on desktops 32bit is still default because it more "just works" (no matter what hardware and what binary blobs a user might want to use)
[22:29] <_pg_> yang_: go 64 bit
[22:29] <Gnea> rockets: these days, there's nothing that vmware can do that virtualbox can't
[22:29] <mili_cor>  kerneloops_:  i dont know i just write it.. some youtube videos or some other pages.. it is not important now which sites has html5 ...:(
[22:29] <rockets> mili_cor, that probably depends on how that website is implementing the video. It's probably not something you can fix.
[22:29] <rockets> Gnea, sure about that?
[22:30] <Gnea> rockets: yup, it's designed to emulate a whole computer, what more could anyone possibly want?
[22:30] <critical_max> mili_cor, that's just the way web browsers present the page/applet. If you want to save the videos for later use Flashget or something similar.
[22:30] <mili_cor>  rockets: probably ? O:-)
[22:30] <rockets> Gnea, does it have robust snapshotting?
[22:30] <bazhang> !ot
[22:30] <Gnea> rockets: why don't you try it and find out for yourself?
[22:30] <rockets> Gnea, I have, and last time I did, it didn't.
[22:30] <bazhang> mili_cor, just get th e firefox plugin to download them
[22:31] <bazhang> rockets, chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:31] <dfh> Gnea, virtualize* not emulate ;)
[22:31] <critical_max> bazhang: it's on topic, virtualbox is better supported under ubuntu
[22:31] <mili_cor> critical_max: no i use also flashgot jdownloader... but i sometimes close the videos which i dont want to download.. so i need a solution.. :(
[22:31] <Gnea> dfh: there's a difference? ;)
[22:31] <bazhang> critical_max, no its not. lets move on
[22:31] <ActionParsnip> mili_cor: tried youtube-dl
[22:32] <bazhang> mili_cor, video download helper ff plugin
[22:32] <yang_> _pg_, dfh: I am on 64bit now. thanks. i just wonder why they are inconsistent.
[22:32] <bazhang> yang_, badly worded description on that page. it has a bug filed against it
[22:32] <critical_max> yang_, there wasn't a proper Adobe Flash 64bit plugin for Linux until fairly recently. that's one major reason for 32bit recommendation in the past.
[22:33] <purpzey> Can someone tell me what the proper program would be to repair a problem on my filesystem using the LiveCD? Or what I should use to identify the issue once I get booted into the LiveCD?
[22:33] <mili_cor>  bazhang: ActionParsnip:  no i use also flashgot jdownloader... but i sometimes close the videos which i dont want to download on my hdd.. so i need a solution.. :( are you sure there is no solution for that ?
[22:33] <bazhang> mili_cor, sure, use the plugin I suggest, you choose to either download/convert or not
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> purpzey: fsck may do it
[22:33] <dfh> yang_, I have yet to encounter a single software package, proprietary or not that would play nicely with 64bit and ia32libs, Ubuntu is really on the very conservative side here
[22:33] <yang_> oh. yes. my flash always crashes.
[22:34] <critical_max> mili_cor, squid is a local web cache if this is a serious issue for you
[22:34] <timposey> I am running ubuntu 10.04 and trying to reset the mysql password because I cannot access the mysql admin, in the forum it is telling me to use service mysql reset-password but this does not work.  any answers?
[22:34] <mili_cor> bazhang: thank you. but i told you i use many plug-in for download them.. they are very simple... but this is not a solution... :(
[22:34] <bazhang> mili_cor, how about trying some suggestions and go from there
[22:34] <dfh> purpzey, do you literally mean the filesystem or messed up files on top?
[22:34] <Pumpkin-> on a desktop system, is it normal for /etc/network/interfaces to have no mention at all of my ethernet adaptor (just lo0) ?
[22:35] <bazhang> mili_cor, and as you have not tried, there's no way to make further suggestions.
[22:35] <critical_max> mili_cor, with a cache on your network you could see at least faster load times
[22:35] <critical_max> mili_cor, but it's overkill for browsing the web for most people :P
[22:35] <dfh> yang_, 10.3 square 64bit runs a lot better than the flash from the repos (on my system)
[22:35] <Gnea> Pumpkin-: yes, network configuration is handled by networkmanager, which has its own configuration
[22:35] <robertzaccour> critical_max, the only application that can open video capture device with is vlc and its black and white no color
[22:36] <yang_> ok, i will stay with 64bit.
[22:36] <critical_max> robertzaccour, Gnea might have solved that problem. I haven't.
[22:36] <dfh> yang_, 10.2* http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_square.html
[22:36] <Jordan_U> purpzey: System > Administration > Disk Utility for a GUI app.
[22:36] <purpzey> Jordan_U: K. thanks.
[22:36] <Gnea> robertzaccour: oh, I wasn't aware that you were still having that problem - have you tried cheese?
[22:36] <mili_cor> bazhang: critical_max: ok.. so i will pray to developers to make new features for that :) thank you!
[22:36] <Jordan_U> purpzey: You're welcome.
[22:36] <itaylor57> yang dfh I user the flashplayer from the repos and mine has never crashed
[22:36] <critical_max> mili_cor, if you get really bored look at Squid, it might do what you want, the thing is most people don't need what you want. Good luck and you're welcome
[22:37] <yang_> thanks dfh, i will try that
[22:37] <dfh> itaylor57, apart from stability "square" runs faster, even full screen - sometimes :P
[22:37] <Pumpkin-> Gnea: if I want to do something particularly wierd, am I best off just off just disabling NetworkManager (I suspect I am), and if so, any idea where to start ?
[22:37] <mili_cor>  critical_max:  i will look for it.. thank you again...
[22:38] <critical_max> Pumpkin-, have you googled your exact model of Ethernet adapter + "linux" yet? that's not normal to not see it
[22:38] <robertzaccour> Gnea, cheese is kinda buggy with the webcam but haven't thought about using it as a capture device otherwise
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> yang_: can you use a pastebin to give the output of: uname -a; lsb_release -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep swf; dpkg -l | grep gnash       Thanks
[22:39] <timposey> cannot access mysql administrator on ubuntu 10.04 any ideas
[22:39] <bazhang> Pumpkin-, whats the chipset, what are you trying to achieve
[22:39] <Pumpkin-> critical_max: oh no, its working. I'm just not very used to Ubuntu on the desktop. I've got a particularly strange desired network setup though (with some virtualised Dynamips devices linked into my actual network).
[22:40] <riptly> I just installed Ubuntu 10.10, it popped out the CD from my drive, and I pressed enter once it was out. Now it's just sitting there (the computer) and the screen is pitch black. No key press works, it's like it froze up right before the reboot or something? This is a fresh install on a freshly formated disk - just I just manually turn the computer off or .... wait?
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> riptly: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-ubuntu-10-04-lts-lucid-blank-screen-at-startup.html
[22:40] <critical_max> Pumpkin-, i would definitely try to solve it without disabling Network Manager. Can you describe what you're trying to do in detail?
[22:40] <bazhang> riptly, how long have you been waiting so far
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> riptly: if you use an nvidia video chip, use the bootoption: nouveau.blacklist=1   instead of the nomodeset one described
[22:41] <critical_max> Pumpkin-, just looked up Dynamips and it's a virtualized Cisco router, ok.
[22:41] <riptly> bazhang: Uhm, about 3-5 minutes.
[22:41] <yang_> sorry ActionParsnip, i am not on my machine now
[22:41] <Pumpkin-> critical_max: I want to tag 3 dot1q VLAN's to a switch on one physical ethernet cable, one for my machine to use normally, and two to connect to Dynampis "emulated" Cisco devices.
[22:41] <jsec> Does anyone have an idea how to get the plymouth default boot screen back after installing the ATI drivers? All I get is a momentary monospace "Ubuntu 10.10" and then it takes me to login
[22:41] <riptly> ActionParsnip: I have yet to enter Ubuntu, this is right after the installation completes.
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> yang_: if you can get the output, I can advise
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> riptly: fine, but do you know your video chip?
[22:42] <riptly> ActionParsnip: I'm on ATI radeon
[22:42] <critical_max> Pumpkin-, ok so you want to add a couple of virtual Ethernet devices?
[22:42] <riptly> HD5770, but I can't be more specific unless I get into an OS :)
[22:42] <ActionParsnip> riptly: the boot options are appplied before the OS loads and will change how the kernel works
[22:42] <_pg_> required driver for unity not found
[22:42] <_pg_> booooooooooo
[22:42] <ActionParsnip> riptly: use the nomodeset option as described in the link then, should be ok
[22:42] <ActionParsnip> _pg_: boot to 2D unity
[22:43] <riptly> ActionParsnip: I don't think you understand my problem, let me rephrase.
[22:43] <_pg_> ActionParsnip: i have "desktop, safe mode, and netbook" as boot options at login screen
[22:43] <yang_> thats a pity. i am using mac now..
[22:43] <Pumpkin-> critical_max: if I just use update-rc.d to turn off networkmanager, I can just setup everything the way I want. So I'm going with that :)
[22:43] <bazhang> riptly, give a couple more minutes
[22:43] <critical_max> Pumpkin-, broadly speaking it involves using "ifconfig eth0:1 <ip> netmask"  , eth0:2, etc...you might have already tried that..
[22:43] <ActionParsnip> _pg_: ok then go to the desktop, get 3D accelleration going then jump into the unity
[22:43] <riptly> bazhang: Alright, I figured the boot sector was in the writing or something?
[22:43] <critical_max> Pumpkin-, just try to stop network manager by disabling its service, not ripping it out entirely ;)
[22:43] <_pg_> ActionParsnip: hmmkay
[22:43] <itaylor57> ActionParsnip: mine is <IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu<IP_ADDRESS> and I have yet to have it crash
[22:44] <Pumpkin-> critical_max: thats what I did ?. Just told it not to run at startup ?
[22:44] <critical_max> Pumpkin-, ahh yes you have got it :)
[22:44] <bazhang> riptly, who knows. I've had that happen and hard reset after an install and it was fine. either way not much lost as it was a fresh install in my case
[22:44] <riptly> Because first time I installed Ubuntu, I pretty quickly turned it off and I couldn't load Ubuntu after that. The second time I let the computer run for a while (I fell aslepp) and I could press enter and it rebooted by itself.
[22:44] <ActionParsnip> riptly: hold shift at boot and you can add the boot options
[22:45] <T_N_T> hello
[22:45] <bazhang> riptly, this is fresh and not an upgrade correct? was there a separate home partition involved?
[22:45] <critical_max> Pumpkin-, yes disabling it with update-rc.d should be fine. Every once in a while you see someone who's actually *removed* the package and is in a world of hurt when they just want to do normal user networking. Didn't want you to be that person down the line.  :)
[22:45] <riptly> bazhang: Fresh, and no. Nothing I specified myself at least.
[22:46] <bazhang> riptly, might be something to consider for future use
[22:46] <ActionParsnip> riptly: the nomodeset option will sort the black screen
[22:47] <bazhang> ActionParsnip, he's stalled at restarting after a fresh install, not rebooted yet
[22:47] <riptly> ActionParsnip: Yes, as you said, but I'm just wondering if I'll corrupt the installation if I just manually shut it down now.
[22:48] <ActionParsnip> bazhang: i see
[22:48] <ActionParsnip> riptly: did the install say it's done?
[22:48] <ActionParsnip> riptly: misunderstood earlier, sorry
[22:48] <bazhang> ActionParsnip, yes, he removed the cd and hit enter as well
[22:49] <ActionParsnip> i'd just go for it
[22:49] <riptly> ActionParsnip: Yea, I was trying to tell you but the answers kept coming so I figured I was misunderstanding :\
[22:49] <terry_> riptly: Anything happen when you do Ctrl-Alt-F5  or F4 or F3 or F7 etc.?
[22:49] <riptly> ActionParsnip: Alright, pulling the plug.... *shrugs*
[22:50] <bazhang> riptly, worst case, 45 minutes or so lost, on the other hand you could set up a home partition as separate if it is problematic
[22:50] <terry_> riptly: Ctrl-Alt-Del?
[22:50] <riptly> Nope, the screen is still in sleep mode and I don't see any HDD action.
[22:50] <bazhang> terry_, no
[22:50] <terry_> bazhang: Ok...
[22:50] <riptly> terry_: Didn't work either.
[22:50] <ActionParsnip> riptly: just hold power btn for 5 secs, it will die good
[22:50] <terry_> riptly: Ok, continue...
[22:51] <simianhorizon> irc.bluesphereweb.com
[22:51] <riptly> ActionParsnip: I'm an expert in shutting it down manually :)
[22:51] <ActionParsnip> cool
[22:51] <riptly> bazhang: Why should I do another partition for /home?
[22:52] <bazhang> riptly, I'll explain if/when you get back
[22:52] <riptly> bazhang: Oh, I'm on a separate computer with this one :)
[22:52] <Guest55493> hi everyone! Sorry to just burst in like that, but does anyone know how to fix this: When connected via cable I can access the local windows network (shares etc.), when connected via WLAN I can't. I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 today, but I worked with Linux before
[22:52] <bazhang> riptly, ha, I'm stepping away for a minute.
[22:52] <riptly> ActionParsnip, bazhang: It worked.
[22:53] <ActionParsnip> Guest55493: are you fully updated?
[22:53] <ActionParsnip> riptly: sweet
[22:53] <Guest55493> yes
[22:53] <th0r> Guest55493: might be the ports are blocked in the wifi hub
[22:53] <terry_> Guest55493: Sounds like the router has two separate networks, one for wired one for wifi.
[22:53] <Guest55493> ok thanks, gonna check that
[22:53] <riptly> ActionParsnip, bazhang: Thanks for the assistance!
[22:54] <riptly> bazhang: Oh, then I'll be here, or I'll search the web for it :)
[22:54] <ActionParsnip> Guest55493: what is the output of: lsb_release -d
[22:54] <Guest55493> Description: Ubuntu 10.10
[22:55] <ActionParsnip> Guest55493: if yoyu
[22:55] <ActionParsnip> Guest55493: if you press ALT+F2 and run:  smb://host/share   whilst on the wire, does it work ok?
[22:56] <ActionParsnip> Guest55493: sorry, wireless
[22:56] <battlehands> I have a DNS and I need help using it for SSH.  I have never done anything like this before.  I am currently in windows, and would like to use PuTTY.  Then I need help using the SSH feature in Ubuntu.  Anyone interested?
[22:56] <Guest55493> nope. could not be mounted

[22:57] <terry_> bazhang: ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>#Where user=actual-user-name  and <IP_ADDRESS>=Actual-IP-of-target
[22:57] <th0r> battlehands: what have you tried so far and what problem did you encounter?
[22:57] <bazhang> terry_, tab fail?
[22:58] <Guest55493> just trying smbclient -L [host] right now
[22:58] <terry_> battlehands: ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>#Where user=actual-user-name  and <IP_ADDRESS>=Actual-IP-of-target
[22:58] <terry_> bazhang: Yea, sorry
[22:58] <bazhang> terry_, :)
[22:58] <critical_max> battlehands, for putty tutorial check http://www.jfitz.com/tips/putty_config.html
[22:58] <battlehands> th0r, I tried logging into my desktop from another city and I was being told that I could not find the host.
[22:58] <terry_> battlehands: Another City?
[22:59] <th0r> battlehands: is your desktop behind a wifi router and did you try to access it using the IP or a name?
[22:59] <Guest55493> smbclient -L [host] listed the shares correctly, but: "Connection to [host] failed (ERROR NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME)
[22:59] <battlehands> terry_, yes.  I tried accessing it using both the IP and the Name.  It is behind a router.
[22:59] <battlehands> sorry... That was for th0r
[22:59] <purpzey> Can someone give me some direction... I am using the Disk Utility to repair my filesystem (it wouldn't mount at startup)...It's returning "The Drive is NOT clean" for the drive I cannot mount at startup...Obviously there's still an issue there, is there another way to fix it...The drive will mount via LiveCD...
[22:59] <th0r> battlehands: if it is behind a router you will need to set up port forwarding in the router
[22:59] <battlehands> th0r, even if I am using a DNS?
[23:00] <terry_> battlehands: Do you have port forwarding enabled for port 22 on it?
[23:00] <battlehands> terry_, Im not sure.  :(
[23:00] <ActionParsnip> Guest55493: can you ping the hostname over the wireless?
[23:00] <th0r> battlehands: yes, you will still have to forward the port. And I would suggest you forward a non-standard outside port to port 22 on your computer, for security reasons
[23:00] <battlehands> ok
[23:00] <terry_> battlehands: as th0r says, you will need to set the router up to forward the port to it so that it will be accessable from the other side.

[23:01] <purpzey> Jordan_U: Sorry to bother....Disk utility is telling me that "The disk is NOT clean" what would be my next step?
[23:01] <Guest55493> basically it doesn't work
[23:01] <thievesguild> Hello... thanks in advance!  Looking for help disabling sftp.
[23:01] <dmkryl> i think i broke ubuntu... nautilus doesn't start from keyboard shorcuts neither from the terminal
[23:01] <Guest55493> I can ping internet addresses and the gateway
[23:01] <_antant> can I install grub as a bootloader without having ubuntu/whatever installed?
[23:01] <critical_max> battlehands, make sure you don't use port 22 or 2222, they are commonly attacked
[23:01] <th0r> thievesguild: just turn off sshd
[23:01] <terry_> battlehands: Do you have an outside IP? (You say you are wanting to access it from another city..)
[23:02] <thievesguild> Hi th0r... I did comment out the line in the config, and restarted (rebooted too) still has access.
[23:02] <ebbe> Hello I am a beginner using 10.04. My trouble is that my wireless keeps dropping and does not reconnect. Google brings up many, many related posts so clearly it's a common problem. But they all say different things. Is there not a hub page or megathread for this problem?
[23:02] <ActionParsnip> Guest55493: connect the wire and run: route; echo     then connect to the wireless and run: route     compare the outputs
[23:02] <th0r> thievesguild: is sshd running (ps ax | grep ssh)
[23:02] <critical_max> ebbe: it's a problem with your router probably. Have you tried changing the broadcast channel on the router?
[23:02] <ActionParsnip> ebbe: when it drops, run: dmesg | tail   it may give clues
[23:02] <critical_max> ebbe: also make sure your firmware is updated on the router
[23:03] <thievesguild> Yes, th0r, it appears to be... I've installed vsftpd... that is listening on 21, sftp on 22
[23:03] <Jordan_U> purpzey: Choose check and repair filesystem.
[23:03] <ebbe> critical_max: It doesn't drop from Windows... Doesn't that mean the router is OK?
[23:03] <_antant> ActionParsnip: can I install grub as a bootloader without having a linux install?
[23:03] <critical_max> ebbe: that's good info to have.
[23:03] <purpzey> Jordan_U: I did...the error is "File system check on....File System is NOT clean"
[23:03] <th0r> thievesguild:  ok...then you will have to disable vsftpd or block port 22 (which would effectively kill ssh as well
[23:03] <ActionParsnip> _antant: sure you can use the ubuntu livecd
[23:04] <critical_max> ebbe: and yeah, less likely to be your router. what have you found that's relevant to your wireless card so far?
[23:04] <bazhang> ebbe, whats the chipset
[23:04] <ebbe> Will try dmesg | tail next time. Also, it does not reconnect automatically even though I have ticked that box.
[23:04] <th0r> thievesguild: make sure you aren't 'double-dipping'. ssh and vsftp might both be trying to run sftp.....do you run both?
[23:04] <Guest55493> ActionParnsip: I'm gonna do that now, thanks
[23:04] <thievesguild> I'd like to use vsftp, instead of sftp, and I'd still want SSH access, for some users.  From what I can see, sftp doesn't restrict a user to their home directory.  Do I have that right?
[23:04] <terry_> Does smb use port 445?  If so Guest55493 can do nmap -P 445 <IP_ADDRESS>  to see if it answers.
[23:05] <th0r> thievesguild: it has been a while since I toyed with it, but I think you can jail ssh users into their home dir
[23:06] <critical_max> ebbe: given that it works in windows, what is the chipset/card model (including exact revision of card if applicable, chipsets change)
[23:06]  * thievesguild smiles. "Thanks th0r.. I get hints of that, but can't get it working"
[23:06] <terry_> nmap -p 445 <IP_ADDRESS>  to see if it answers.
[23:06] <ebbe> It's a Dell. Not sure what the chipset is. Perhaps I can find out from the Dell website.
[23:06] <bazhang> ebbe, lspci in terminal to paste.ubuntu.com please
[23:06] <th0r> thievesguild: I used to just run ssh, that gave me scp and sftp if I remember correctly
[23:07] <critical_max> thievesguild, th0r: jailkit is something I've used with good success to jail users. it will set up the chroot environment and limit to what apps you want.
[23:07] <Guest55493> ActionParnsip: Ok there is one difference, I try to correct that
[23:07]  * thievesguild nods. "You're right th0r... but it allows all users into all directories. Not what I want at all."
[23:07] <critical_max> thievesguild, th0r: http://olivier.sessink.nl/jailkit/ if you really need to set up ssh chroot jails that's your tool
[23:07] <lordjj> Can someone help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1713147
[23:07] <GuyCanada> hey guys, ive got my friends hard drive hooked up via usb to my laptop, its been not working and its saying failure imminent now that i have it plugged in but is there a way for me to try to explore it? i can see it under mounted media but it gives an error when i try to open it
[23:07] <th0r> thievesguild: no....I think you can change that. And check out the info critical_max just sent
[23:07] <critical_max> thievesguild, little bit of a learning curve on it but it's dead solid once set up
[23:07] <thievesguild> critical_max... thanks
[23:07] <purpzey> Can anyone help me out, my filesystem won't mount, I booted to LiveCD, tried check/repair it is returning "The filesystem is NOT clean"
[23:08] <thievesguild> I can't believe this come enabled as default on Ubuntu server lts
[23:08] <critical_max> thievesguild, you're welcome
[23:08] <dstorrs> excuse me, foilks, could someone help me with an bootup question?  I'm trying to get my MySQL server to start on boot and I don't understand the .conf file well enough yet.
[23:08] <dstorrs> File is here: http://pastebin.com/7Wp6uUUa
[23:08] <Guest55493> ActionParnsip: executing "sudo route add -net link-local netmask <IP_ADDRESS> dev eth1" solved it! Thanks a bunch! :D
[23:08] <ebbe> OK, I will run lspci and paste to paste.ubuntu.com
[23:08] <critical_max> thievesguild, in the meantime you can remove world readable permissions from other user's directories, at least
[23:08] <Guest55493> ActionParnsip: I don't understand why, but I'm glad anyway ^_^
[23:09] <dstorrs> purpzey: have you tried fsck ?
[23:09] <dstorrs> oh, sorry, you said "tried check/repair".  Misread.
[23:09] <critical_max> dstorrs, "sudo update-rc.d mysql enable"
[23:09] <purpzey> dstorrs: Right...check/repair...
[23:09] <dfh> purpzey, which FS do you use?
[23:10] <purpzey> dfh: Ext3

[23:10] <merryman540> Hi. I have legacy ubuntu 804 on one drive and linux mint 10 on another separated drive. I installed the ubuntu 804 last and it isn't able to boot me in the linux anymore. How do I give control back to linux mint?
[23:10] <th0r> thievesguild: looks like google has some info you might be able to use http://www.google.com/search?q=jail+users+in+ssh+linux+config&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
[23:10] <ActionParsnip> Guest55493: sweet, you may want to add that someplace so it gets ran at boot
[23:10] <dstorrs> critical_max: Ok, will do, but would you be willing to look at the linked .conf file?  there are two lines I don't understand, and I would like to before I use this.
[23:10] <critical_max> dstorrs: sure, pastebin it
[23:10] <dstorrs> http://pastebin.com/7Wp6uUUa
[23:11] <dfh> purpzey, use fsck from the terminal and post the output
[23:11] <purpzey> dfh: What is the command? I mean, I know fsck...but what options do I need?
[23:11] <dstorrs> critical_max: it's a non-standard install, runs under the company "special functions" user.
[23:11] <terry_> merryman540: You able to boot at all?
[23:11] <dstorrs> not ideal, I know.
[23:11] <critical_max> dstorrs, the first line seems to just be setting the disk's block size based on a bunch of string manipulation of the output of 'df'
[23:11] <merryman540> terry_ only into the ubuntu 904
[23:12] <merryman540> ubuntu 8.04
[23:12] <dstorrs> critical_max: yep.  That much I got.  I don't understand the implications, though.
[23:12] <terry_> merryman540: Can't boot the Linux Mint.  Right?
[23:12] <vadal> how do I install the Logitech dual action controller, I am using 10.10 Ubuntu, but this tutorial doesn't work http://linuxgamingtoday.wordpress.com/2008/01/24/install-and-use-usb-based-gamepads-in-ubuntu/
[23:12] <merryman540> terry_ no
[23:12] <critical_max> dstorrs, the other line just runs /home/cm_satin/mysql-main/debian-start; you'll have to examine that file to see what it's doing after.
[23:12] <terry_> merryman540: Linux Mint is the one you installed last?
[23:13] <terry_> merryman540: Or was it the 8.04 you installed last?
[23:13] <merryman540> terry_ no the ubuntu 8.04 was the one I installed last
[23:13] <critical_max> dstorrs: much discussion on MySQL block size here: http://www.mysqlperformanceblog.com/?s=mysql+block+size
[23:14] <terry_> merryman540: Oh, I see.... well.  I think you might be best off to upgrade to grub2  but... well 8.04 is maybe too old for that... let me see.
[23:14] <ebbe> I have tried to paste my lspci output to paste.ubuntu.com, not sure it worked. Never tried this before. Does the lspci contain info on my chipset?
[23:14] <Mikeey> Grub2 is sexy.
[23:14] <dstorrs> critical_max: ah, fantastic.  Thank you.
[23:14] <critical_max> dstorrs, I located debian_start on my mysql install and it appears to be the script that checks for corrupt tables and root accounts

[23:15] <ebbe> Oh sorry. I think the URL is paste.ubuntu.com/585051/

[23:15] <dstorrs> yeah, I went through it -- I should probably ask in the mysql channel instead of here for that.
[23:15] <critical_max> dstorrs: yes, those guys will have the nitty gritty for ya
[23:15] <dstorrs> Sorry for taking up your time on what is apparently all mysql stuff.

[23:16] <wizardken> what's the command to find out dhcp hostname in terminal?
[23:16] <merryman540> zvacet how do you chainload?>
[23:16] <dstorrs> critical_max: This (these) are our company servers.  And so far, I'm loving them.
[23:16] <purpzey> dfh: I am getting Device or resource busy...but I don't have the drive mounted...do I need to manually umount it first or something? \
[23:16] <terry_> merryman540: 8.04 is a three years old, that's a problem. You should be on 10.04 if you wish to use LTS.  but that is a different issue.
[23:16] <dstorrs> GuyCanada: absolute worst case if you can't get anything, contact DriveSavers.com
[23:16] <dmkryl> i believe i have broken ubuntu now launcher neither nautilus work

[23:17] <bazhang> ebbe, does ifconfig show more than eth0 lo?
[23:17] <wizardken> anyone know the command to check the DHCP hostname
[23:17] <GuyCanada> dstorrs, thanks but can you reccommend any ways to do it for myself? none of the data is irreplaceable but its an inconvenience
[23:17] <merryman540> terry_804's lts is coming to an end but ays that's neither here nor there
[23:18] <dstorrs> GuyCanada: sorry, I would if I knew how.  :<
[23:18] <terry_> merryman540: Yea, you need to get on the ball and do distro upgrade.
[23:18] <merryman540> terry_no thank you
[23:18] <critical_max> GuyCanada, get the Trinity Rescue Kit CD. It's made for that.
[23:18] <kevin__> ciao
[23:18] <critical_max> GuyCanada, it's free, linux-based, made to save Windows data
[23:18] <bazhang> !it | kevin__
[23:18] <kevin__> list
[23:19] <terry_> merryman540: But for now, just go to the grub-help site and you should be able to determine how to fix grub so that it boots  your mint10.
[23:19] <ebbe> ubottu: Thanks, I'll have a look.
[23:19] <terry_> merryman540: What do you mean no-thank you?
[23:19] <merryman540> terry_ok thanks
[23:19] <GuyCanada> thanks max, should that be used with the damaged drive in the computer and run the cd? or will it work with the damaged drive attached via usb?
[23:19] <critical_max> GuyCanada, there is also UBCD4WIN. Either should suit your purpose. Either way.
[23:20] <critical_max> GuyCanada, it should appear the same
[23:20] <ebbe> bazhang: ipconfig shows entries for eth0, eth1 and lo
[23:20] <merryman540> terry_ 10.3 doesn't keeps breaking
[23:20] <merryman540> 10.04 keeps breaking
[23:20] <terry_> merryman540: Problem is, that I think grub2 might be easier to fix.
[23:20] <Kevin`> GuyCanada: you should attach it via ata, not usb, otherwise the recovery will be very slow (usb has a delay of some sort on physical errors)
[23:20] <terry_> merryman540: What is happening to 10.04?  (What is it that is broken?)
[23:20] <bazhang> ebbe, eth1 is probably the broadcom device. please check the bot link to make sure you have the driver installed correctly
[23:21] <merryman540> terry_I'll try the grub site. Do you have a refernce for it?
[23:21] <coz_> lucid broken?
