[05:30] <croivzeba> x-izzy: you mean multiple boot entries with different kernel numbers?
[05:30] <gops> mobasher>> its samsung GT5603
[05:31] <JRummy16>  [   <--- is that a command within the sh shell?
[05:31] <xjkx> croivzeba: it asks me for use the nvidia thing and i say yes, then in the options there i see 640x480 and  320x240, both of them are bad, can't i add the normal ones ? :>
[05:32] <mobasher> gops>> i don't see it in your lsub ..is it Bus 002 Device 006: ID 05c6:1000 Qualcomm, Inc.
[05:32] <mortici> I have a strange issue, i can browse the web fine in Ubuntu, but i can't ping any web address, i just get a Destination Port Unreachable
[05:32] <rww> JRummy16: yes
[05:32] <mortici> For instance i can go to www.cnn.com but i can't ping www.cnn.com
[05:32] <x-izzy> croivzeba yes
[05:33] <x-izzy> croivzeba an older one and a new updated one
[05:33] <mobasher> mortici>> server block ping requests
[05:33] <gops> mobasher>> check the output of the dmesg http://pastebin.com/UtsM11eD
[05:34] <whosjose> ilovefairuz: same problem
[05:34] <ilovefairuz> whosjose: close and re-open brasero
[05:34] <whosjose> done did that
[05:35] <croivzeba> x-izzy: system -> administration -> synaptic package manger, hit status at the bottom and then installed; type in linux-image and find the older kernel. then select complete removal and they should be gone
[05:35] <ilovefairuz> whosjose: same exactly error?
[05:35] <croivzeba> upon reboot
[05:35] <whosjose> yes
[05:35] <mobasher> gops>> sometimes the phones are understood as a modem device and due to that they are mounted as modems not storage devices
[05:36] <x-izzy> croivzeba thanks
[05:37] <gops> mobasher>> wat can i do now to mount my phone, its happening only in kubuntu , in my debian lenny [same pc] its working fine
[05:39] <gops> ping mobasher
[05:40] <message144> gops, is it a touchpad or is it a rotary phone?
[05:41] <whosjose> ilovefairuz: nothing works, any ideas?
[05:42] <gops> mobasher, its touch phone
[05:42] <andyBB>  hi, i'm having an issue sshing to my machine, seems like an ssh config problem http://pastebin.com/3KG3vWmb
[05:42] <mobasher> gops>> Pm me the fdisk -l
[05:42] <kermit> nytime i dotn shut down properly, all sorts of settings for variosu apps get lost or corrupted .. like skype, chrome, gnome, pointer settings
[05:43] <Balsaq> ubuntu 10.04 installed normall an ran well, then the updates came and it crashed and ruined the install. had to delete the partiton?
[05:43] <Balsaq> reinstalled..same thing again...
[05:44] <gops> mobasher >> out put of fdisk http://pastebin.com/HCerAzJ1
[05:45] <Balsaq> is there something abouot putting ubuntu 1004 on its own partition, separate from windows that wrecks the updates?
[05:45] <jellow> Balsaq: no
[05:45] <Balsaq> i didnt think so
[05:46] <gops> mobasher: fulldetails of the phone http://bit.ly/9Pyvdp
[05:46] <Balsaq> low ram maybe jellow?
[05:46] <Balsaq> i have 512 rdram
[05:46] <jellow> Balsaq: ubuntu is not light with gnome and compiz , have a look at system monitor
[05:47] <Balsaq> it was topped right out
[05:47] <Balsaq> maxed
[05:47] <jellow> Balsaq: but this should not directly affect updates
[05:47] <soreau> jellow: compiz is as light as the effects enabled and how well the graphics driver handles them
[05:47] <Balsaq> i dont use compiz
[05:47] <soreau> compiz itself does not use very many resources at all
[05:47] <Balsaq> and it happened with the nvidia drivee and the gnome driver
[05:48] <jellow> i've always felt a slow down when using compiz
[05:48] <brandoney> I'm trying to setup private DHCP net and public static net on the same ethernet.
[05:48] <soreau> jellow: then your graphics driver is lacking my friend ;)
[05:48] <brandoney> uverse route won't accept 2 IPs on same mac,
[05:48] <soreau> and / or gpu
[05:48] <jellow> soreau: yes would not suprise me
[05:48] <drewbert> Hi, I am trying to watch netflix in a windows virtual machine using virtualbox.  The videos won't unpause.  Does anyone know anything about this?
[05:48] <brandoney> how do I use a different mac for virtual interface eth0:1 ?
[05:48] <Balsaq> the same computer runs 904 perfect?
[05:49] <jellow> brandoney: look at macchanger , sudo macchanger -r eth0
[05:49] <jellow> will set a random mac
[05:50] <mortici> mobasher: its on every site i try to ping
[05:50] <brandoney> cool, thanks.  I can aways count on #ubuntul
[05:50] <mobasher> mortici>> use nmap instead
[05:51] <mortici> mobasher: issue is that i can't repo any git repo's it can't resolve the address.
[05:51] <whosjose> any other Video DVD burners?
[05:51] <mortici> mobasher: apt-get runs fine
[05:52] <mortici> mobasher: something is a miss here, i should still be able to ping addresses
[05:52] <mobasher> mortici>> did you instal firewall ?
[05:52] <mortici> not that i know but i could be wrong
[05:53] <mortici> mobasher: how do i check what services are running
[05:53] <mobasher> ps -ef | grep firestarter
[05:53] <mobasher> firestart or there is guarddog
[05:53] <mortici> mobasher: it is active
[05:53] <mobasher> aha..so that's where theproblem is
[05:54] <mortici> mobasher: you are the man, how do i turn it off or remove it?
[05:54] <mobasher> apt-get remove firestarter
[05:54] <kermit> how do i enable the scrolling feature of my touchpad?  it was on, until i shut down improperly and lots of things reset their settings.
[05:54] <mobasher> or goto synaptic
[05:55] <mortici> mobasher: hmmmm its not installed
[05:55] <mobasher> mortici>> what made you think it was active ?
[05:56] <mortici> 1000      9944  2077  0 23:53 pts/0    00:00:00 grep --color=auto firestarter
[05:56] <mobasher> so it is up
[05:56] <mortici> mobasher: its listed in my service list...
[05:57] <mobasher> do a vi on /etc/hosts
[05:57] <rww> mortici: no, a grep command looking for the word "firestarter" is up...
[05:58] <Balsaq> join #linux
[05:58] <mobasher> rww>> i think that's what he was doing ..i think
[05:59] <mortici> mobasher: if i do service --status-all
[05:59] <mortici> mobasher: firestarter is listed...
[05:59] <mortici> mobasher: nothing in /etc/hosts
[05:59] <mneptok> mortici: many hosts do not respond to ping, and many ISPs block it.
[05:59] <mobasher> mortici>> did you do a grep ??
[06:00] <mortici> mobasher: yeah
[06:00] <mneptok> mortici: not to mention most sane firewall configs allow responses to outgoing packets.
[06:00] <mortici> mobasher: i vaguely remember installing something similar to peer guardian
[06:00] <knolls> Anyone know quickly where the option went in the gimp to make every pixel of my graphic black?  I used to know this, if it's irrelevant to the channel I understand.  I'm just flustered.
[06:01] <mortici> mneptok: thats what i would think too. whats odd is i can go to a website in firefox, but i can't ping it...
[06:01] <mobasher> mortici>> try doing a ping to www.yahoo.com
[06:01] <mneptok> mortici: many hosts do not respond to ping, and many ISPs block it. (x2)
[06:02] <mortici> PING any-fp.wa1.b.yahoo.com (<IP_ADDRESS>) 56(84) bytes of data.
[06:02] <mortici> From <IP_ADDRESS> icmp_seq=1 Destination Port Unreachable
[06:02] <theshadow> Ok I have a IBM R60 with a middle button and the red joy stick I've found what may be a solution by modifying the xorg.conf file but in 10.04 the default installation doesn't have an xorg.conf
[06:02] <theshadow> I'm trying to get the scrolling working
[06:02] <mneptok> mortici: your ISP or the modem/router they provided you may block ICMP traffic
[06:03] <mobasher> mortici>> do this..."wget www.yahoo.com "
[06:03] <mortici> mneptok: thats what I am thinking, let me check a laptop that is running Windows 7
[06:03] <mortici> index.html saved
[06:03] <mortici> and retrieved
[06:03] <mobasher> okay so u should be fine...
[06:03] <mobasher> u're not blocked anywhere
[06:03] <mneptok> mobasher: as mortici said a browser works, one can expect wget to work.
[06:04] <croivzeba> 64 bytes from ir1.fp.vip.ac4.yahoo.com (<IP_ADDRESS>): icmp_seq=1 ttl=51 time=30.4 ms
[06:04] <mneptok> mortici: what is the point of pinging a site, anyway. it doesn't tell you much.
[06:05] <mobasher> mortici>> why don't you nmap it ? instead of pinging it
[06:05] <mneptok> never send ping to do traceroute's job.
[06:05] <theshadow> I think I asked that horribly. I'm trying to get the middle button/scroll working on an IBM r60. The solution I found requires a modification to the xorg.conf file but by default 10.04 doesn't produce the file and I can't find where in the GUI and settings to perform the equivilent
[06:05] <croivzeba> ^lol
[06:05] <mortici> mneptok: when i try to do a repo init -u git://blahh.com/blahhh/blah.git it fails
[06:06] <mneptok> mortici: so use a known working git repo before blaming the network.
[06:06] <mortici> when i ping from windows 7 it works fine....
[06:06] <mortici> mneptok: gotcha let me try a valid repo
[06:07] <sacarlson> theshadow:  I think you can manualy create an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.  when you install propraitary drivers the installer normaly creates one.
[06:07] <mortici> mneptok: same issue..:android.git.kernel.org[0: <IP_ADDRESS>]: errno=Connection refused
[06:07] <mortici> but i can go to android.git.kernel.org and download indvidual files.....
[06:07] <kermit> there's a window in the middle of my screen that's always on top and i can't make it go away.. it says "type to search" with a magnifying glass.
[06:07] <theshadow> sacarlson: yea when I installed this laptop it didn't need any restricted drivers :P
[06:09] <sacarlson> theshadow: as far as your mouse normaly you can change settings for it in System>preferences>mouse
[06:09] <theshadow> sacarlson: yea I found that but none of the settings equate to setting Option "EmulateWheel" "true" Option "EmulateWheelButton" "2" in the xorg
[06:10] <Balsaq> has there been a lot of issues getting 1004 to update?
[06:10] <Balsaq> i have read everyting i can find
[06:11] <sacarlson> theshadow: this looks like what you need to create a config file and modify it the way you want it. http://www.osguides.net/operation-systems/217-how-to-create-xorgconf-in-ubuntu-910.html
[06:11] <mortici> mobasher: moblock might be the issue
[06:12] <mortici> mobasher: you are the man thank you, i can ping away now :D
[06:12] <mobasher> u did it all brother :)
[06:13] <mortici> mobasher: you gave me the idea :D thank you very much, i completely forgot i installed that software, i remembered peerguardian, then moblock
[06:13] <mobasher> mortici>> glad i could be of any help :)
[06:13] <mortici> you were!
[06:13] <kraut> moin
[06:14] <mobasher> thank u ;) enjoy :)

[06:14] <theshadow> sacarlson: ty
[06:17] <whosjose> any other Video DVD burners?
[06:20] <mortici> mobasher: ahh the joy of a repo syncing :D
[06:23] <Emanon> ok ubuntu 10.04 gwibber doesnt work for facebook why and how can i fix that if it can be fixed?
[06:31] <Emanon> quiet in the channel tonight
[06:31] <Emanon> do i have everyone on ignore or something?
[06:32] <Vamp> Hello all.
[06:32] <richardcavell> Hi folks.  I'm running Ubuntu Lucid inside VirtualBox on OS X.  It's running on a virtual hard disk image.  I recently changed the boot hard disk image in order to increase its size.  The old hard disk image was a SATA image.  The new one is IDE.  I didn't do that deliberately - I was just following instructions.  Now when Ubuntu boots, it gives me the message: drive for UUID=xxxx is not ready yet or not... (wraps off end of screen) belo
[06:32] <richardcavell> the Ubuntu logo.  But it boots anyway.
[06:33] <Vamp> Wow.
[06:33] <Vamp> FlamingCock
[06:34] <iflema> richardcavell the old swap partition uuid??
[06:34] <richardcavell> iflema: Ah, now that could be it.  What I did was I increased the size of the Ubuntu partition and I deleted the old swap partition and made a new one
[06:35] <iflema> richardcavell fstab may still be looking for theold one.....
[06:35] <Emanon> sok it never detects my swap partition on boot but it always uses it fine anyways
[06:35] <Emanon> it just takes a lil bit to initialize it
[06:35] <Emanon> and im running native
[06:35] <richardcavell> All I did was create a partition within gparted of type 'linux-swap' and I labelled it 'Swap'
[06:36] <Vamp> I'll be back.
[06:36] <Emanon> yea my swap is on an encrypted lvm so that might be it for me
[06:37] <richardcavell> I just looked at /etc/fstab and sure enough it has the old UUID and some text that tells me it's looking for the old swap partition
[06:37] <richardcavell> Can I just delete that line in fstab?
[06:37] <Emanon> so any ideas why facebook doesnt work in gwibber?
[06:37] <richardcavell> Should I put in the new swap partition, or can Ubuntu find it and use it anyway?
[06:38] <iflema> richardcavell the system will go with whats infstab i belive.... ina terminal use thecommand   free    and see if is swap is being used
[06:39] <iShawnW> Vamp: I was messing around in another channel
[06:40] <richardcavell> Hmmm no, it's not using any swap at all
[06:40] <richardcavell> Okay let me reboot
[06:40] <tux9656> hello
[06:40] <richardcavell> hello tux
[06:40] <incognito_> when I install tightvnc, it does not create an xstartup file in the .vnc directory, so that I can tell it what wm to use. does anyone know how to deal with this issue?
[06:41] <qdb> hello. i have made sudo apt-get source Packagename --download-only  and where it is now ? it is not in /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:41] <iflema> richardcavell why not spin a livecd, test sys specs, install, enjoy?? =)
[06:42] <richardcavell> iflema: I'm already installed
[06:42] <x-izzy> need a good image editor
[06:42] <iceroot> x-izzy: gimp
[06:42] <liam> i installed a program as root via cli but cant access it using my normal user account. What is the directory the program would have installed to?
[06:42] <richardcavell> iflema: No I fixed it.  All I had to do was to edit /etc/fstab to update the UUID to the new swap partition
[06:42] <richardcavell> easy peasy
[06:42] <iflema> richardcavell goodone
[06:42] <iceroot> liam: dpkg -L packagename
[06:43] <bsmith093> UUIDs suck why do they even exist again?
[06:43] <Emanon> UUID's rock
[06:43] <iceroot> liam: or "which programname"
[06:43] <Emanon> they allow it to disregard the /dev/sd* designation
[06:43] <bsmith093> Emanon: seriously though why?
[06:43] <Emanon> and look for a drive based on an address only it will have no matter where it is plugged in
[06:43] <bsmith093> but thats so much easier to remember that<PHONE_NUMBER>djgjirih78959743
[06:44] <liam> iceroot: i didnt install it using package manager. I installed it using a .sh file
[06:44] <Emanon> so if i have /boot on a removable drive (which i do) i can plug it in anywhere and it will work
[06:44] <incognito_> liam what program did you install
[06:44] <liam> incognito_: netbeans
[06:44] <Emanon> since it doesnt look for the normal port designated or time of insertion designated address
[06:44] <Emanon> but the unique identifying number of THAT DEVICE
[06:45] <Emanon> also means you can more easily use a portable filesystem (like a full install on a usb drive)
[06:45] <incognito> liam are you a programmer, are you familiar with linux ubuntu?
[06:46] <goddard> did ubuntu do something to the system menu? I don't have my shut down menu item any more
[06:46] <liam> incognito: yes iam but ive never really bothered to read up on what all the directories are for and this includes where programs are installed.
[06:46] <incognito> anyone familiar with tight vnc
[06:46] <goddard> its tight
[06:47] <goddard> :D
[06:47] <incognito> liam are you familiar with the whereis command?
[06:47] <Emanon> liam the executable for most things will install to /usr/bin
[06:47] <liam> incognito: no
[06:47] <Emanon> check /usr/bin/netbeans
[06:47] <Emanon> even .sh's respect that
[06:48] <Emanon> and next time dont just make, install
[06:48] <Emanon> make, checkinstall (slashdot says its cool)
[06:48] <incognito> liam type "whereis netbeans" in the command line without the quotes, and it will show you where netbeans is.
[06:48] <Emanon> or install netbeans from the repo
[06:48] <Flannel> liam: If you installed it with something outside of a package manager, it *should* be installed to /usr/local/bin (with its support files being elsewhere in /usr/local/*) or to /opt/*
[06:48] <liam> enanon: /usr/bin hasnt got any dirs
[06:48] <qdb> solved should be in apt conf
[06:49] <Emanon> it wouldnt be a directory it would be an executable liam
[06:49] <Emanon> the directory would be in /usr/lib with the rest of the library files
[06:49] <incognito> liam then if you are willing to search with your file manager you might be able to find the program. I've done it that way before, but it can be tedious
[06:49] <surial> Installing either sun-java6-jdk or openjdk-6-jdk will completely hang the server on update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/jexec to provide /usr/bin/jexec (jexec) in auto mode. When I attempt to SSH in, it'll get as far as "connection established" and just freeze there. Anyone have an idea what could be causing this?
[06:49] <Emanon> or just read the script you used and see where it put everything
[06:49] <Besogon> good morning guys. How can I connect to Personal File Sharing using Windows? What folder should I connect to?
[06:50] <Flannel> liam: if you can just type the program into the terminal and have it run, `which programname` would be the easiest way to find it
[06:50] <liam> emanon: I want to go into the dir to run the uninstall file so that I can reinstall it as the user account
[06:50] <Emanon> then check the script you used to install it
[06:50] <Emanon> it will list where it puts things
[06:50] <qdb> no such file...
[06:51] <liam> Flannel: it says its not installed but the installer says it is
[06:51] <liam> Emanon: the only file i have found is in /root/Desktop
[06:51] <somethinginteres> what is the easiest, cleanest way to remove packages that the system doesn't need/use? I notice for a lot of 'from source' installs tons of build dependencies are needed things like that I'd imagine take up a ton of space
[06:51] <Emanon> where is the SCRIPT THAT YOU USED TO INSTALL IT
[06:51] <Emanon> not any of the files it installed
[06:51] <Emanon> THE SCRIPT
[06:52] <qdb> i have made sudo apt-get source Packagename --download-only  and where is the downloaded package? it is not in /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:52] <iflema> somethinginteres the computer janitor ( administration menu ) or sudo apt-get autoremove ina terminal
[06:53] <liam> Emanon: I know where the script is but what should i search for to find the directory it specifies?
[06:53] <somethinginteres> iflema: thanks
[06:53] <Emanon> open the script in gedit
[06:53] <Emanon> and it will say where it puts everything as a clear directory
[06:53] <Emanon> like "cp suchandsuch /such/and/such"
[06:54] <quiescens> qdb: source downloads to /usr/src
[06:54] <qdb> quiescens, thank you
[06:54] <richardcavell> iflema: thanks dude.  My Ubuntu installation is now working perfectly.
[06:55] <Emanon> oh and on a side note with personal file sharing (System>Preferences>Personal File Sharing) most of it is greyed out what packages do i need to fix that?
[06:55] <richardcavell> I'm liking this VirtualBox.  I can install as many free operating systems as I want.  OpenSolaris is going in now
[06:55] <qdb> quiescens, i do not find it there , and there are all are directories, but my should be an archive, i think
[06:55] <quiescens> qdb: blah, sorry, it downloads to current directory, it extracts to /usr/src if you didn't do --download-only, I just happened to be in /usr/src at the time
[06:55] <qdb> thank you
[06:56] <liam> thanks all for your help it was at /usr/local/netbeans
[06:56] <Emanon> liam it should be in your repo too
[06:56] <Emanon> so you dont have to install from script
[06:57] <liam> Emanon: it is but it was suggested to install the one for php so I dont have to bother with installing plugins etc.
[06:57] <MrUnagi> in mail, i get a squiggly line next to my mailbox, says i need to take it online, when i do, the line pops back up.....any idea whats going on?
[06:57] <Emanon> ahhh
[06:57] <Emanon> ok that makes sense
[06:57] <liam> ah well thanks anyways
[06:58] <Emanon> so any clues on the packages i need so the personal file sharing thing will actually work?
[06:59] <chosen> hey guys i just created a lamp server and installed phpmyadmin but im trying to access local host on chrom and its saying permission denied i dont have access
[06:59] <chownmount> i am not able to mount my windows partition (fat32) in linux and access as regular user (only root), i tried to chown and chmod and none seemed to work, any suggestions?
[06:59] <chownmount> !samba | Emanon
[07:00] <Emanon> did you make sure to use chown recursively?
[07:00] <Besogon> Emanon: Perconal file sharing?
[07:00] <chownmount> Emanon, yes, as root i get permission denied
[07:00] <Besogon> Emanon: If you can't make it works I have the same problem. But
[07:00] <Emanon> Besogon: System>Preferences>Personal File Sharing
[07:01] <chownmount> Emanon: Operation not permitted
[07:01] <Emanon> but i just tried to share a file directly and it installed some packages so im going to restart the session and try again brb
[07:01] <Emanon> and ill be back for you chownmount
[07:01] <mobasher> Emanon >> http://macpablodesigns.wordpress.com/2010/05/01/enable-personal-file-sharing-in-ubuntu-10-04/
[07:01] <chownmount> Emanon: okay, thanks
[07:01] <sacarlson> chownmount: you might need to add your user permisions in System>administration>user groups>advanced>privliges
[07:02] <gasull> Hi. I compiled the kernel as explained at http://newyork.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=f0230328b82c45adb697b0b17b618d17&t=1341580  And now I get this at bootup: "Kernel panic - not syncing:VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block".  I didn't update GRUB.
[07:02] <chownmount> sacarlson: i'll check there, its bothersome root didn't have permission to chown
[07:02] <sacarlson> chownmount: you can't chown on windows file systems it has none.
[07:03] <mobasher> gasull>> check your boot settings i think you made a wrong reference in the boot up file creation
[07:03] <chownmount> sacarlson: how do i mount so regular user has access?
[07:03] <chownmount> sacarlson: i checked system -> administra -> users and groups, and the user has permission there
[07:03] <Besogon> Emanon: I tell you what I did to make it works. I have installed apache2-bin (with all its depends) and apache-common, then I install libapache2-mod-dnssd And now it works
[07:03] <sacarlson> chownmount: as stated above you need to add the user to the allow mount group
[07:03] <gasull> mobasher: how do I check my boot settings? what is the boot up file creation?
[07:04] <Emanon> yea i just followed that link Besogon restarting for it now
[07:04] <chownmount> sacarlson: is that the FUSE thing in the permissions?
[07:04] <mobasher> gasull>> check your menu.lst
[07:04] <sacarlson> chownmount: yes
[07:05] <gasull> mobasher: how?  I'm running the install Live CD right now.
[07:05] <chownmount> sacarlson: thanks, that fixed it (i was looking at the top most option thinking that was it)
[07:06] <mobasher> eeeee u're in live cd
[07:06] <mobasher> sorry my bad
[07:07] <mobasher> gasull>> not sure if you can chroot into the file system to change the boot properties on this 10 ubuntu i'm on old ubuntu anyway :)
[07:07] <CloudyLighting> Evening everyone, I was hoping i could get help with setting up an IR Remote with a USB IR sensor
[07:07] <gasull> mobasher: I would need to mount my hard drive first, right_
[07:08] <gasull> right?
[07:08] <mobasher> gasull>> for chroot ?
[07:08] <gasull> mobasher: I don't think my hard drive is even mounted
[07:08] <mobasher> well you can check in /media
[07:09] <mobasher> or do fdisk -l
[07:09] <i_is_broke> trying to get my belkin usb wireless going, have got it loaded, but wont see the internet?? what am i missing?
[07:09] <gasull> mobasher: /media is empty
[07:09] <gasull> mobasher: fdisk -l shows nothing
[07:09] <Emanon> woot personal file sharing works thanks
[07:10] <mobasher> gasull>> you gurb thing is messed
[07:10] <Emanon> k did they solve your problem yet chownmount?
[07:10] <chownmount> Emanon: yes, it was simple; system -> admin -> users -> give FUSE access to user
[07:10] <Emanon> ahh cool
[07:10] <mobasher> gasull>> not sure about these new installs man...i'm on old school pc running 9.04 :) but your /boot/device.map should show you the list of media devices
[07:10] <mobasher> gasull>> do a cat on it
[07:10] <gasull> mobasher: I guess I should say that my hard drive is encrypted, but as far as I know that doesn't encrypt /boot
[07:11] <cryptopsy> how do i mount my blackberry in linux as a block device?
[07:11] <Emanon> you cant encrypt /boot
[07:11] <Emanon> it wouldnt work
[07:11] <chownmount> gasull: you can put /boot on a usb flash drive
[07:11] <Emanon> thats what i do
[07:11] <mobasher> gasull>> hmm..not sure how the encyption thing works though haven't had a chance to play with it
[07:11] <cryptopsy> Emanon: how do password a partition such that it cannot be mounted
[07:11] <gasull> mobasher: "no such file or directory" with cat /boot/device.map
[07:11] <mobasher> gasull>> check the /boot/grub/device.map
[07:11] <mobasher> hmmmmmmm
[07:12] <Emanon> during install or after cryptopsy?
[07:12] <gasull> chownmount: how do I put the /boot on a usb flash drive?
[07:12] <somethinginteres> I'm after recommendations for a great audio player, audio quality being key I'd like it to be as little a resource hog as possible not because it has to be per se but if it were possible in an ideal world that'd be nice. Thanks :)
[07:12] <cryptopsy> Emanon: after, i.e someone steals ur usb stick
[07:12] <cryptopsy> Emanon: how do you protect it?
[07:12] <Emanon> try truecrypy
[07:12] <chownmount> gasull: its easiest (and maybe only possible) when a fresh install is done, but during the partition stage of installation
[07:12] <Emanon> sorry truecrypt
[07:12] <Emanon> thats a fairly nice utility for encryption
[07:13] <gasull> mobasher: cat /boot/grub/device.map: "no such file or directory"
[07:13] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Blackberry%20Sync%20with%20Ubuntu cryptopsy
[07:13] <cryptopsy> tnx
[07:13] <cryptopsy> oops
[07:13] <cryptopsy> i dont want to sync it
[07:13] <Emanon> if you want to though you can encrypt your whole system disk during the install (with the exception of /boot of course)
[07:13] <cryptopsy> just mount it as block device
[07:13] <mobasher> chownmount>> u know about this 10 install thing ?
[07:13] <Emanon> thats how i do it
[07:13] <chownmount> mobasher: sorry i don't follow, can you be more specific? are you trying to install ubuntu 10.04?
[07:14] <Emanon> root swap all on encrypted lvm with a removable /boot
[07:14] <mobasher> chownmount>> not me gasull is ..he need some help..cna't find boot or device.map
[07:15] <Emanon> and when i was single booting i used to do all that over a 4 disk raid hehe
[07:15] <chownmount> gasull: in terminal, under / is boot and to find device.map, in terminal, do a sudo find / -name device.map
[07:15] <Emanon> the alt install disk is awesome
[07:15] <gasull> mobasher, chownmount: fdisk /dev/sda and then pressing m should show the partitions in disk, right?
[07:16] <Emanon> p shows partitions in fdisk not m
[07:16] <cryptopsy> bazhang: how to verify this: Verify that libopensync0 is installed on your system.
[07:16] <Emanon> p=print
[07:16] <cryptopsy> ??
[07:16] <chownmount> gasull: sudo fdisk --list
[07:16] <Emanon> or that
[07:16] <Wolf23> help ! what extension should play videos on my car by usb?
[07:17] <Emanon> one the car supports
[07:17] <etherealite> Why isn't avahi advertising my ssh server?
[07:17] <chownmount> Wolf23: it would be in the manual, but usually all support mpeg extension with codec mpeg1
[07:17] <gasull> chownmount, mobasher: http://pastebin.com/FN7Si1hH
[07:17] <Emanon> probably mp3 Wolf23
[07:17] <gasull> chownmount, mobasher: got list of devices
[07:17] <MindVirus> Hello. My computer connects to the Internet at some places but not at this one.
[07:17] <MindVirus> Wirelessly, that is.
[07:18] <Wolf23> chownmount,  can i convert from flv to mpeg1?
[07:18] <kneaux> heyyy...who knows how to address computers behind an ethernet switch
[07:18] <MindVirus> My password is correct.
[07:18] <Wolf23> Emanon,  mp3 play videos?
[07:18] <Emanon> err sorry mp4
[07:18] <Emanon> mistyped thanks for the catch
[07:19] <chownmount> Wolf23: yes, using avidemux
[07:19] <etherealite> MindVirus Whats does ifconfig display?
[07:19] <Emanon> would be an m4v if you use handbrake for the conversion
[07:19] <chownmount> gasull: all looks okay there, what are you specifically trying to do?
[07:19] <Emanon> arista is also a nice transcoder
[07:19] <gasull> chownmount:  I compiled the kernel as explained at http://newyork.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=f0230328b82c45adb697b0b17b618d17&t=1341580  And now I get this at bootup: "Kernel panic - not syncing:VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block".  I didn't update GRUB.
[07:19] <MindVirus> etherealite: Huh. I am connected via IPv6.
[07:20] <mobasher> gasull>> is this your boot device -> /dev/sda1   *           1          32      248832   83  Linux
[07:20] <etherealite> MindVirus IPv6 what country are you in?
[07:20] <gasull> mobasher: yes
[07:20] <MindVirus> etherealite: USA. I am stoned and I could be wrong.
[07:20] <mobasher> gasull>> can you mount it
[07:20] <MindVirus> But I have an "inet6 addr".
[07:20] <etherealite> MindVirus then you don't need ipv6
[07:21] <sacarlson> kneaux: address computers?  it should plug and play if you have a dhcp server running on it.
[07:21] <MindVirus> etherealite: I know, but I am connected via IPv6.
[07:21] <MindVirus> I'd rather use v4.
[07:21] <Emanon> maybe he wants more addresses on his lan
[07:21] <MindVirus> But I don't even know what I did here.
[07:21] <mobasher> mkdir /media/sda1     then   mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[07:21] <Wolf23> chownmount,  are u sure mpeg1 videos plays on usb on a pioneer?
[07:21] <etherealite> MindVirus you you dont see inet addr:192.168.x.x ?
[07:21] <chownmount> Wolf23: i didn't know it was pioneer, but mpeg1 is the oldest (in mpeg extension)
[07:21] <etherealite> Why isn't avahi advertising my ssh server?
[07:22] <gasull> mobasher: here we are
[07:22] <MindVirus> etherealite: Negatory.
[07:22] <Emanon> what is the model of your cars stereo or onboard computer or whatever
[07:22] <Wolf23> chownmount,  thanx i will try :)
[07:22] <gasull> chownmount: mobasher: http://pastebin.com/cMrnzeh8
[07:22] <etherealite> MindVirus  what does sudo iwconfig say?
[07:22] <Wolf23> Emanon, but my videos are flv, is there a way to convert them to mp4?
[07:23] <Emanon> think handbrake or arista can do that Wolf23
[07:23] <mobasher> gasull>> goto grub and check the device.map against menu.lst
[07:23] <MindVirus> etherealite: So, I guess I'm not actually connected then.
[07:23] <Wolf23> Emanon,  alright thanx
[07:24] <Emanon> yea handbrake supports flv transcoding just checked
[07:24] <gary_inNYC> i just installed Shotwell and found out it doesn't support gif or png.  How can I quickly convert a bunch of pictures to jpg?
[07:24] <kneaux> sacarlson: i forgot i was asking this the last time i was here hehe
[07:24] <etherealite> MindVirus I dunno send me a dpaste of the output of ifconfig
[07:24] <Kane_hart> anyone ever had a strange issue with say backup.sh script that backup a folder and zipps it if you do ./backup.sh works great then when you have it in a cron job it does not back it all up right only like 300kb while doing the real ./backup does like 15mb
[07:24] <gasull> mobasher> can't find any of those files in /media/myboot/grub
[07:24] <naser67> hi,there
[07:24] <MindVirus> etherealite: That would sound great but I'm not connected to the Internet.
[07:24] <MindVirus> No USB drives.
[07:24] <kneaux> sacarlson: i'm still trying to figure out how to connect remotely to a server i have on a lan where every machine has the same ip
[07:25] <kneaux> i.e. they have local ips but to the internet they're the same
[07:25] <naser67> i've installed php5 on /etc
[07:25] <mobasher> gasull>> what's in the grub ?
[07:25] <MindVirus> Wait, what the fuck?
[07:25] <Emanon> port forwarding kneaux
[07:25] <MindVirus> I guess I am connected.
[07:25] <MindVirus> But to "".
[07:25] <naser67> if i wanna reinstall ubuntu the php5 folder will deleted?
[07:26] <Emanon> make all connections on a certain port of the router forward to a certain internal ip
[07:26] <gasull> mobasher: http://pastebin.com/KeQADRhd
[07:26] <kneaux> emanon i'm not sure my switch does that actually
[07:26] <kneaux> is that the only way
[07:26] <Emanon> its fairly simple thats how i manage my subsonic server from outside my lan
[07:26] <etherealite> MindVirus when you type iwconfig it should say ESSID:"your network name"  ### if it doesn't then your wireless isnt associated
[07:26] <kneaux> emanon: are you on a router or a switch
[07:26] <Emanon> router sorry
[07:26] <MindVirus> etherealite: It does. It says 'ESSID:""'.
[07:26] <mobasher> gasull>> that's wierd...did you isntall grub  like apt-get install grub
[07:27] <MindVirus> "Link Quality=10/100".
[07:27] <gasull> mobasher: http://pastebin.com/DxxBtY6e
[07:27] <gary_inNYC> kneaux try ddns?
[07:27] <etherealite> MindVirus ESSID what? tell me what the essid is.
[07:27] <kneaux> (<rant> fscking office max is going to charge me a 15% "restocking" fee if i have to return it due to their total inability to tell me what device i needed </rant>)
[07:27] <Emanon> do you log into the switch like a router? or you just plug it in and leave it be?
[07:27] <MindVirus> etherealite: "".
[07:27] <sacarlson> kneaux: again they don't have the same ip they are just on the same local ip mask.  to come in remote from outside that local network you will need to add nat forwarding settings you your router.
[07:27] <chosen> hey guys i just created a lamp server and installed phpmyadmin but im trying to access local host on chrom and its saying permission denied i dont have access
[07:27] <etherealite> MindVirus your not associated with your wireless ap then
[07:27] <gasull> mobasher: can it be because I have my hard drive encrypted with LUKS:
[07:27] <gasull> ?
[07:28] <etherealite> MindVirus re associate and see what happens
[07:28] <MindVirus> etherealite: I know, and I tried to associate with it.
[07:28] <kneaux> emanon: i haven't been able to figure out how to connect to the switch yet, d-link's support is...not
[07:28] <kneaux> sacarlson: again, switch, not a router, i'm not sure it's terribly configurable
[07:28] <kneaux> gary_innyc: lemme look up ddns
[07:28] <etherealite> MindVirus are you using wep or wpa?
[07:28] <Emanon> try <IP_ADDRESS> in a web browser kneaux everyone likes that address
[07:28] <MindVirus> etherealite: WPA.
[07:28] <kneaux> emanon: i know, right? everybody but dlink :\
[07:29] <Emanon> whats your switch model?
[07:29] <etherealite> MindVirus and you typed in the right password and all
[07:29] <MindVirus> .Oh my goodness! It connected.
[07:29] <mobasher> gasull>> not sure man..never done it with encyption...check with chownmount see if he can help not too familiar with it
[07:29] <Emanon> d-link XXXXXXXX
[07:29] <MindVirus> I don't know what you did but it worked. Thanks etherealite.
[07:29] <sacarlson> kneaux: some switches are smart like cisco but most people use simple auto detect switches that just detect the mac address of each device that plugs in.
[07:29] <gasull> chownmount: what do you suggest now? http://pastebin.com/DxxBtY6e
[07:29] <etherealite> MindVirus your welcome, when your having trouble connecting, just try and reconnect and that will fix %90 of all problems.
[07:30] <etherealite> Why isn't avahi advertising my ssh server?
[07:30] <MindVirus> etherealite: I tried for like an hour earlier. :)
[07:30] <etherealite> MindVirus did you try resetting the router too?
[07:30] <gary_inNYC> so is there a quick way to save a bunch of pics from gif to jpg?
[07:30] <MindVirus> etherealite: No.
[07:30] <kneaux> Hey guys.  XP has installed. (I thought it was the CD drive which wont recognize a blank disk but now windows works.) The 9.04 disk has sucessfully installed before but not on this computer. That 9.04>>9.10 HD works on this Dell.  What could be the problem?
[07:32] <chosen> #php
[07:32] <chosen> hey guys i just created a lamp server and installed phpmyadmin but im trying to access local host on chrom and its saying permission denied i dont have access
[07:33]  * gasull is seeking help at #grub
[07:33]  * kneaux is thoroughly embarrassed
[07:33] <naser67> what kind of file does ubuntu have in /etc?
[07:34] <Emanon> gary_inNYC: look for batch image converter in synaptic
[07:34] <DarkSector> naser67, the bad kind
[07:34] <Loshki> gary_inNYC: the 'convert' program in the ImageMagick suite claims it converts from GIF to JPEG. I've never used it myself...
[07:34] <etherealite> chosen whats chrom?
[07:34] <gary_inNYC> k thanks
[07:34] <kneaux> emanon: okay 192.168.anything.normal still doesn't work, even when i'm actually connected to the device in question
[07:34] <Besogon> naser67: configuration files are stored in the folder
[07:34] <kneaux> and the model is...des-1106
[07:35] <Emanon> k sec kneaux
[07:35] <chosen> etherealite, googlechrome
[07:35] <naser67> Besogon:how can i get backup from that?
[07:35] <chosen> my browser
[07:36] <naser67> i wanna keep my /var/www and /etc folder when i reinstall ubuntu
[07:36] <etherealite> chosen dpaste the exact message
[07:36] <naser67> Besogon:i wanna keep my /var/www and /etc folder when i reinstall ubuntu
[07:38] <chosen> etherealite, http://pastebin.com/VM1HAWmG
[07:38] <Besogon> naser67: I have never used backup (as I only user and reinstall ubuntu every  half a year) but ask about backup of the boot channel. I saw there is a lot of programs for backup
[07:39] <chosen> etherealite, fixed it
[07:39] <chosen> had to chown
[07:39] <Besogon> naser67: bot channel*
[07:39] <naser67> bot channel*
[07:39] <etherealite> you still need to enter /phpmyadmin to it though.
[07:39] <naser67> boot channel
[07:40] <n1ka> hi there
[07:40] <Besogon> naser67: or channel bot* (How he is named there in English I don't know)
[07:40] <naser67> channel bot*
[07:40] <naser67> channel boot*
[07:41] <Besogon> ?backup
[07:41] <etherealite> IdleOne what is naser67 trying to do here?
[07:41] <Emanon> yea doesnt appear to have management access sorry
[07:42] <Besogon> etherealite: tell him about backup of some folders please. I don't know how ask the bot
[07:42] <naser67> etherealite: i'v got a problem and i need your advice
[07:42] <etherealite> naser67 what about?
[07:43] <naser67> etherealite:is there a way to keep /var and /etc when i reinstall ubuntu
[07:43] <naser67> etherealite:sorry for my bad english
[07:43] <Emanon> if you have them in separate partitions before you reinstall naser67
[07:43] <Emanon> and you define them during install and tell it not to format them
[07:43] <etherealite> he can do it without
[07:44] <naser67> etherealite:how?
[07:44] <etherealite> naser67 yes, but your going to need to use a boot disk and copy the files unto a seperate disk
[07:45] <etherealite> etherealite this is assuming your installing the same exact version of ubuntu
[07:45] <Emanon> and on the gif to jpeg thing earlier phatch will do that in large groups aparrently
[07:45] <tripelb> Please help me...I have a new hard drive (1T Hitachi on an older Dell)  Linux (9.04,10.04, Fedora11) wont install. XP has installed. (I thought it was the CD drive which wont recognize a blank disk but now windows works.) The 9.04 disk has sucessfully installed before but not on this computer. That 9.04>>9.10 HD works on this Dell.  What could be the problem?
[07:45] <naser67> but i think separate partion is the best way
[07:45] <etherealite> naser67 well its a little late for that isn't it?
[07:45] <Emanon> tripelb: occasionally dark eldritch gods conspire to foil our installs
[07:45] <etherealite> naser67 unless your already have separate partitions.
[07:46] <naser67> etherealite:no it's not
[07:46] <Emanon> try it from a usb key yog sothoth doesnt keep up with technology
[07:46] <Besogon> naser67: try '/msg ubottu backup' command
[07:46] <naser67> Besogon:tnx
[07:47] <Emanon> also check your install has the right architecture (as in not 64 bit for a 32 bit cpu)
[07:47] <tripelb> Emanon: It failed repeatedly. That's why I tried the Fedora disk. Even tho the Ubuntu disk checked out perfect I thought I dunno. I want to run ubuntu. Maybe there's something wrong with the hard drive?
[07:47] <tripelb> should I try Ubuntu in a ;artition?
[07:47] <Emanon> tripelb: try it on a usb drive if you can thats pretty fast
[07:48] <Emanon> tripelb: also check your boot order and make sure the cd drive is available (unless your calling the boot menu manually)
[07:48] <Emanon> might also sacrifice a few annoying neighborhood kids to cthulhu that helps on occasion
[07:48] <tripelb> Emanon yes it's the right one. An install from the same liveCD disk (installed on a computer with problem RAM that would freeze up) works just fine on this Dell.  (this has frazzeled my brain, and what if my new HD is bad)
[07:49] <Emanon> nah if anything installs its fine
[07:49] <Emanon> right but that other computer might have a different cpu arch
[07:50] <tripelb> Emanon: the liveCD loads as a liveCD system. But gparted quits. The Fedora just showed an error. It doesnt have a separate gparted.
[07:50] <Emanon> oh it loads up on the one but wont install?
[07:50] <Emanon> hmmm
[07:50] <Emanon> maybe the starts just arent right i hope someone else can help you cause im at a loss
[07:50] <tripelb> Emanon: The HD (with ubuntu from that livecd) works on both computers. That means that they have the same architecture.
[07:51] <gasull> If I'm in the Live CD, how do I chroot into my hard drive?  I have my hard drive's root partition mounted already at /media/myboot
[07:51] <Emanon> ftagn for now i guess
[07:51] <tripelb> Emanon: thanks. Me too. I've been at this on one way or another for many weeks. Then I got tired of it and have been just using windows.
[07:52] <spike__> hey
[07:53] <Emanon> !hi | spike__
[07:53] <spike__> is anyone here
[07:53] <Emanon> quite a few of us actually spike__

[07:55] <Emanon> k mooseposse hit me
[07:56] <sambarino> i'm trying to install mailman on an ubuntu server but it's not working and i have run out of ideas on how to fix it
[07:56] <mooseposse> I am running an IBM X31 laptop dualboot 10.04 and XP I have trouble with going into standby mode on ubuntu all it does is freeze is this a common problem?
[07:56] <cryptopsy> anyone here use a blackberry as a block devince in linux?
[07:57] <Emanon> standby has been rather finnicky on linux laptops in my experiance
[07:57] <Emanon> but thats old experience it might be different now
[07:58] <spike__> anyone know how to go back to 9.10 i have 10.4
[07:58] <mooseposse> suse 11.2 works going into standby but i like this better
[07:58] <Emanon> reinstall?
[07:58] <mooseposse> I tried that
[07:58] <Transmitter> Not all distros have problems with standby and laptops. Ubuntu does atm
[07:58] <Emanon> no i mean spike__ reinstall
[07:59] <Transmitter> In fact, Ubuntu has never played nicely with laptops and standby
[07:59] <mooseposse> oh lol
[07:59] <spike__> i dont have a disk drive on my computer i have a netbook
[07:59] <Emanon> reinstall from usb
[07:59] <Transmitter> mooseposse reinstalling will do nothing
[07:59] <spike__> how do i get in on a usb
[07:59] <Emanon> unetbootin is pretty easy
[08:00] <Emanon> install unetbootin from repository run it
[08:00] <Emanon> specify distribution (ubuntu) version (9.10) and path to usb /dev/sd(something)
[08:00] <Transmitter> spike__ Emanon is right - unetbootin is easy to use. I've used it to install Ubuntu on many netbooks
[08:00] <Emanon> it will download and install
[08:00] <kneaux> i should've known
[08:00] <kneaux> commie ethernet switch pinkos
[08:01] <kneaux> won't do port forwarding to save their soul from hellfire
[08:01] <Emanon> onto usb for easy installation from usb on reboot
[08:01] <mooseposse> Is there a way to fix it, I would use this all the time if it werent for the standby problem since I use this for school (this runs way smoother than windows)
[08:01] <spike__> ok is that a website
[08:01] <Emanon> im not sure switches have souls
[08:01] <firefox51> good morning
[08:01] <Transmitter> mooseposse nope
[08:01] <kneaux> everything has a soul
[08:01] <Emanon> no spike__ unetbootin is a program
[08:01] <mooseposse> ok thank you
[08:01] <Transmitter> nothing has a soul
[08:01] <kneaux> lies
[08:01] <Emanon> check in synaptic

[08:02] <mooseposse> lol dually noted
[08:02] <Emanon> well religious folk dont argue that we HAVE souls but that we ARE sould and what we have are bodies
[08:02] <Emanon> i would add to that and we only have those temporarily
[08:02] <Transmitter> religion is surely OT
[08:02] <Emanon> hehe
[08:02] <mooseposse> may i ask one other question
[08:02] <Emanon> its ALWAYS ot
[08:02] <kneaux> which religious folk do you talk to
[08:03] <Emanon> i hope so mooseposse
[08:03] <kneaux> they can't be that cool
[08:03] <Transmitter> mooseposse of course
[08:03] <Four2zero> hey all, was able to access the ubuntu server with putty, and now, if try to reconnect it will not give me the prompt to login ?
[08:03] <Transmitter> !ot | kneaux

[08:03] <kneaux> they started it :\
[08:03] <Emanon> applications menu
[08:03] <Emanon> system tools submenu
[08:03] <mooseposse> lol along with standby not working my internal fan dosnt work in ubuntu either is there a way to fix that as well
[08:03] <spike__> ok thanks let me go try it
[08:03] <gary_inNYC> sweet... mogrified all pictures in a folder in one command :D thx for the tip
[08:03] <Emanon> make sure you know which /dev/ your usb drive is
[08:04] <Transmitter> mooseposse I haven't had that problem myself. If you keep coming back and asking you may find someone who has
[08:04] <Emanon> with phatch gary_inNYC?
[08:04] <spike__> k
[08:04] <mooseposse> ok thank you
[08:04] <gary_inNYC> Emanon: i used the mogrify command included in imagemagick
[08:04] <kneaux> hey does anyone know how to get rid of the empty space that happens when you have a dualhead on two different size screens
[08:04] <Emanon> ahh cool
[08:04] <Four2zero> hey all, was able to access the ubuntu server with putty, and now, if try to reconnect it will not give me the prompt to login ?
[08:05] <Transmitter> mooseposse I'm a big *nix supporter myself, but I'll tell you, it isn't going to be all smooth sailing with Ubuntu and your laptop
[08:05] <Emanon> oh the place where your mouse goes but nothing useful can kneaux?
[08:05] <mooseposse> this is true
[08:05] <kneaux> yeah, like your monitor
[08:05] <kneaux> always making me be unnecessarily precise with my pointer motions and such
[08:05] <Emanon> no idea my mom has the same thing with her netbook (it has a regular monitor hooked up right now)
[08:06] <mooseposse> well I gotta go thank you for your help

[08:07] <Transmitter> !ot | Transmitter
[08:07] <Emanon> ok so i have full disk encryption  on the go and when i boot up the first time it is always good but once i install my graphics drivers the encryption key screen at boot is 640x480 or so instead of what it should be so its all smooshed, it works fine but what do i edit in grub to change it's resolution and is there a guitastic package for grubconfig (like kgrubeditor was)
[08:07] <mooseposse> good afternoon then ha ha from up state new york

[08:09] <spike__> which one is it   unetbootin-translations   or just unetbootin
[08:09] <Emanon> just unetbootin
[08:09] <spike__> ok
[08:09] <Emanon> translations is just for other languages
[08:09] <kneaux> other, weaker languages
[08:10] <Four2zero> hello, putty is having a difficult time connect to ubuntus server ?
[08:10] <Emanon> that cant survive in the competitive world of lipflapping
[08:10] <Transmitter> Four2zero give me the IP and I'll try
[08:10] <Transmitter> I'll even accept a URL
[08:10] <Transmitter> but not an IPV6 address
[08:10] <Emanon> hehe

[08:11] <kneaux> mac?
[08:12] <Noiano> hello
[08:12] <Emanon> !hi | Noiano
[08:12] <Transmitter> Noiano ask away, pappy
[08:12] <Noiano> I'd like to receive a file via bluetooth but my phone doesn't "see" my pc....
[08:12] <Four2zero> this is a locallan server
[08:13] <Four2zero> not a public server
[08:13] <ServerTech|Busy> Can i get help in installing wine
[08:13] <Transmitter> Four2zero can you ping the server?
[08:13] <Transmitter> Noiano and you are positive bluetooth is running on your PC?
[08:13] <spike__> for     select distribution what do i pick
[08:13] <Four2zero> Transmitter, im able to access the ftp via filezilla and remote desktop via vnc
[08:14] <Emanon> go into System>Preferences>Bluetooth and check make my computer visable
[08:14] <Emanon> spike__: ubuntu
[08:14] <Noiano> well, it should be turned on...rfkill lists the pc peripherical
[08:14] <cryptopsy> bazhang: the blackberry page you gave me didn't work , and ive tried all the other folow ups int he forums
[08:14] <Emanon> and then pick the right version
[08:14] <Emanon> and make sure you have the right usb drive at the bottom
[08:14] <Noiano> Emanon, there is no such checkbox
[08:14] <Emanon> Noiano: go into System>Preferences>Bluetooth and check make my computer visable
[08:14] <Emanon> hmm
[08:15] <Transmitter> Four2zero well, maybe you have firewalled the port you are trying to access. What are you actually trying to connect to? What service?
[08:15] <Emanon> darn
[08:15] <Four2zero> Transmitter i changed the port to 2121
[08:15] <Emanon> wait what versionm are you using Noia
[08:15] <Four2zero> that all
[08:15] <ServerTech|Busy> Ok, how do i install wine
[08:15] <gary_inNYC> ServerTech|Busy: you can install Wine from Software Manager, or if you want the latest and greatest beta, check out the wine ppa
[08:15] <ServerTech|Busy> I do not need the beta
[08:16] <Blue1> ServerTech|Busy: sudo apt-get install wine
[08:16] <ServerTech|Busy> ok
[08:16] <ServerTech|Busy> thz
[08:16] <ServerTech|Busy> *thx
[08:16] <Blue1> np
[08:16] <Noiano> Emanon, what version of what? :)
[08:16] <Emanon> ubuntu
[08:16] <Noiano> 10.04
[08:16] <Emanon> then make me visable should be at the top of the bluetooth config window
[08:17] <Emanon> if you have a bluetooth dongle plugged in
[08:17] <Noiano> I'll post a screenshoot
[08:17] <Emanon> above "Friendly Name"
[08:17] <Noiano> I see "bluethooth" disabled, if I click on turn on blueth nothing happens :(
[08:18] <Spaztic_One> Howdy all. So, I'm trying to set up a menu item, I've got the icon, the name, and the location but when it launches, it isn't running the same way as if I had clicked to open it. The file in question is the BOINC manager, which I have downloaded manually a while back and am in the middle of work units, otherwise I would probably just use the package provided. Main point being, why isn't it...
[08:18] <Emanon> not in your panel
[08:18] <Spaztic_One> ...running normally from the menu item I created, and how do I fix it?
[08:18] <Emanon> Noiano: in System manu preferences submenu bluetooth in there
[08:19] <apoage> hi, is there someone who has experience in setup wacom tablet on linux (while twinview is active (mean dual head))
[08:19] <Emanon> Spaztic_One: the shortcut you made might not have the same switches on the command as the original check the original with right click properties to see how it calls the target program
[08:19] <Noiano> Emanon, look http://yfrog.com/miscreenshotbluetoothprefp
[08:19] <tripelb> I'll try again another day.
[08:20] <Emanon> do you have a bluetooth transmitter Noiano?
[08:20] <Emanon> like on the computer
[08:20] <Noiano> Emanon, it's embedded
[08:20] <Noiano> on windows it works
[08:20] <Noiano> I swear to god :)
[08:20] <Spaztic_One> Emanon: As far as I can tell it does not have any switches.
[08:21] <Emanon> System>Administration>Hardware Drivers Noiano see if it needs a driver
[08:21] <Noiano> Emanon, in there I can only see nvidia drivers ;)
[08:21] <Emanon> Spaztic_One: dunno then hope someone can help you
[08:21] <Emanon> hmmm maybe the bluetooth module you have is not supported yet
[08:22] <Emanon> might consider googleing your model of computer + ubuntu 10.04
[08:22] <Emanon> with bluetooth in there somewhere
[08:22] <Four2zero> Transmitter, i did run screen after i've disconnected from the server, could that be the issue/
[08:22] <Four2zero> ?
[08:22] <Spaztic_One> Emanon: The switches would be in the name,. correct?
[08:22] <Noiano> Emanon, thanks
[08:23] <Emanon> Spaztic_One: they would be in the command
[08:23] <Emanon> like wine -s -om -ecommand
[08:23] <Spaztic_One> I am not seeing a command.
[08:23] <Emanon> sec
[08:25] <spike__> does anyone have super ubuntu
[08:25] <guest123> Hi, i've a strange behaviour when i connect to Gnome via VNC.(Ubuntu 10.10, x11vnc or tightvncserver). The gnome-sessions starts, all seems to be working, but i press a key in e.g. gedit or terminal the windows closes.
[08:25] <Spaztic_One> Emanon: It is an executable, not a script. Don't know if that changes anything in regards to my question or finding the command.
[08:25] <Emanon> http://imagebin.ca/view/hjCt3wGy.html
[08:26] <Four2zero> hahah...I used the wrong port...lol
[08:26] <Four2zero> up and running now
[08:26] <kneaux> how do i add a custom menu
[08:26] <Emanon> right click on your menu and hit "edit menu"
[08:27] <kneaux> directly to the panel?
[08:27] <Emanon> yea like on your applications menu
[08:27] <Emanon> select edit menus then on the right select add menu
[08:27] <kneaux> it puts it in one of the other menus
[08:27] <kneaux> i want one far away in the middle of the panel
[08:27] <spike__> does anyone use super ubuntu
[08:27] <Emanon> drag it out in the edit menu
[08:28] <Slart> spike__: probably.. but it isn't supported in this channel
[08:28] <spike__> oh
[08:29] <kneaux> doesn't work
[08:29] <Spaztic_One> Emanon: Oh, of the launcher, not the file itself. Yes, the command is the path and then the file in said path. no switches.
[08:29] <spike__> what is the best of of the 9.10 ones
[08:29] <Emanon> right click select add to panel then pick the drawer i guess
[08:29] <Emanon> dunno then Spaztic_One
[08:30] <Slart> spike__: huh? you mean of kubuntu/ubuntu/xubuntu etc?
[08:30] <Spaztic_One> Hmm, strange. Ubuntu seems to have the most random and inexplicable glitches for me haha
[08:30] <spike__> ubuntu

[08:44] <tgywa> Hello, dns client is not working ....on Ubuntu 10.04. Do I need to install any dns client package?
[08:44] <Slart> spike__: yup
[08:44] <sacarlson> spike__: help you with what unetbootin?  without knowing what your problem might be it is very hard to help.
[08:45] <Doyle> axisys: you there?
[08:45] <Slart> spike__: live is just that you can run it from the cd.. a live cd, like the isos you download from ubuntu.com. Netinstall means it starts the installer and then downloads packages during the install.. ie you need a live internet connection for the install.. I have no idea what hdmedia is
[08:46] <Slart> Seito: yes, it's quite easy.. let me see if I can find a howto for you
[08:46] <sacarlson> tgywa: dns client?  you might need to make sure that the file /etc/resolv.conf has a dns server that works in it
[08:47] <Seito> Thnx, Slart :)
[08:47] <apoage> Seito, : well you can try this  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=182764
[08:47] <Seito> Thanks again. I hope it will help. Good luck!
[08:49] <mtx_init> tgywa: every os has a stub resolver on it, you dont need dns software.  Make sure your resolv.conf is properly setup

[08:52] <yakoza> hi, i wanna download youtubr clip using youtube-dl
[08:52] <Slart> RedEyess: then I think you need to pastebin some logfiles, error messages and such.. /var/log/syslog might be a good start

[08:53] <Doyle> Slart: yes
[08:53] <JohnHeikkila> like that and with .i386 or .x86_64?
[08:54] <Doyle> JohnHeikkila: what kind of program?
[08:55] <Giles> Hello, I have two mice build into my laptop, a touchpad and a nipple, one of them is faulty and causes the cursor to constantly zoom off the screen
[08:55] <Giles> How can I disable the mouse
[08:55] <whosjose> any IDE like Visual Studios, that allows you to code and compile automatic?
[08:55] <JohnHeikkila> Doyle: I was thinking about a program which would be like a front-end for Flasm
[08:55] <Doyle> Giles: Maybe an option in your bios.
[08:55] <whosjose> I've tried eclipse but i can't download the software needed
[08:56] <JohnHeikkila> Doyle: But now that I think about it, it can be an installable one, too
[08:56] <odb|fidel> whosjose: the qt project comes with a small IDE (just one example)
[08:56] <Giles> Doyle: maybe, surely I can disable it in xorg.conf?
[08:57] <Giles> Where does xorg.conf live in ubuntu?
[08:58] <Slart> !ide | whosjose
[08:58] <SwedeMike> Giles: /etC/X11, but often it's not needed and doesn't exist.
[08:58] <SwedeMike> Giles: /etc/X11/, sorry for the wrong caps.
[08:58] <Doyle> Giles: there's a program called gpointing-device-settings, have a look at it
[08:58] <Doyle> Giles: if your nub is listed you should just be able to turn it off
[08:59] <Giles> SwedeMike: mine doesn't exist, so how can I tell it what I do and don't want configured?
[08:59] <EMPulse> the checking if I'm human thing is new...
[09:00] <Doyle> Slart: thanks! gotcha. The basics slip this late at night
[09:01] <SwedeMike> Giles: well, you need to create one that has the sections and then you just need to add what you want changed from the defaults. you can look into the xorg.conf.failsafe , it should have the defaults.
[09:01] <Giles> Doyle: That app is perfect
[09:01] <Doyle> Giles: nice
[09:01] <SwedeMike> Giles: http://www.pastebin.ca/1937101 is mine.
[09:02] <Giles> SwedeMike: Thanks, but I solved my problem another way
[09:02] <JohnHeikkila> Which programming language should I use if I want to make a cross-platform program?
[09:03] <Giles> Java?
[09:03] <Doyle> JohnHeikkila: are you a programmer?
[09:03] <Giles> python?
[09:03] <Giles> ruby?
[09:03] <JohnHeikkila> Doyle: Not really, but I've just coded a lot
[09:03] <Doyle> html
[09:03] <JohnHeikkila> Why HTML?
[09:03] <Giles> Doyle: I wouldn't call HTML a programming language
[09:03] <JohnHeikkila> markup language
[09:03] <JohnHeikkila> :P
[09:03] <tgywa> mtx_init, ntpdate[1584]: name server cannot be used, reason: Temporary failure in name resolution
[09:03] <Giles> Java, Ruby, Python....etc
[09:04] <Doyle> JohnHeikkila: every os in the world can read it. Encorporate backend languages and you can build web-apps
[09:04] <tgywa> mtx_init, I do think that I have the right config lines in /etc/resolv.conf
[09:04] <JohnHeikkila> Doyle: Yes but if I want to kinda make a front-end for Flasm?
[09:04] <Giles> JohnHeikkila: it really depends on your applcation
[09:05] <Giles> JohnHeikkila: He is right, but It depends what you want to do
[09:05] <mtx_init> tgywa: not sure, maybe ask on the forums
[09:05] <Doyle> JohnHeikkila: there's no 'one' language for multi-platform applications... you could learn a few C languages, that's as close as youre going to get
[09:05] <Giles> JohnHeikkila: more traditional programming languages that are "cross-platform" are the ones I mentioned
[09:06] <Giles> JohnHeikkila: and yes, you can make any application cross-platform in almost any language
[09:06] <JohnHeikkila> Giles: so you're now talking about the app I want to make a front-end for or the one I would make?
[09:07] <Doyle> JohnHeikkila: if you're going to write a front end for flasm... it'd be best to write specifically for each OS you want to deploy the app on
[09:07] <Giles> flasm?
[09:07] <JohnHeikkila> Sorry, my internet crashed. Giles, did  you say something between this
[09:07] <tgywa> My dns client is not resolving names on Ubuntu 10.04 ... any idea?

[09:07] <Giles> no I said flasm
[09:07] <Giles> flasm?
[09:07] <tgywa> My dns client is not resolving names on Ubuntu 10.04 ... any idea??
[09:08] <JohnHeikkila> Giles: "Flasm disassembles your entire SWF including all the timelines and events. "
[09:08] <tgywa> Getting thise error:  ntpdate[1584]: name server cannot be used, reason: Temporary failure in name resolution
[09:08] <Giles> JohnHeikkila: is flasm cross-platform
[09:09] <JohnHeikkila> Giles: Yes
[09:09] <ServerTech|Busy> what does "hg clone <link>" do?
[09:09] <Giles> JohnHeikkila: You want to write a GUI front-end?
[09:09] <JohnHeikkila> Giles: Exactly
[09:10] <Doyle> JohnHeikkila: I'd have to say Python would suit your needs best
[09:10] <JohnHeikkila> Giles: Flasm is command line only
[09:10] <JohnHeikkila> so
[09:10] <Doyle> JohnHeikkila: it's licensing will be suitable for your situation I think considering your using Flasm

[09:11] <AvionicX> Doyle» yes, the function is there. but the cursor is still left pointing which is kinda of weird to use when left handed mouse. :)
[09:11] <Giles> JohnHeikkila:  So you could write it in C++ with QT
[09:12] <Giles> JohnHeikkila: C and GTK
[09:12] <Giles> JohnHeikkila: Python and PyQT
[09:12] <Giles> JohnHeikkila: Java and Swing
[09:13] <JohnHeikkila> Giles: Okay, thank you.
[09:13] <Giles> JohnHeikkila: what is flasm writtern in btw
[09:13] <Doyle> JohnHeikkila: learn it... You've messed around with programming so you should understand enough to dive in relatively quickly
[09:13] <Doyle> AvionicX: Did you logout and login?
[09:14] <AvionicX> Doyle» oh, nope. it pointer change automatically?
[09:14] <AvionicX> the*
[09:14] <AvionicX> ok, let me try relog.
[09:15] <JohnHeikkila> Giles: All I know is "flasm was written by Opaque Industries (http://www.opaque.net/)"
[09:15] <xjkx> my sound doesnt work and calling alsaconf is in vain
[09:16] <xjkx> ubuntu 10
[09:16] <xjkx> last one, just downloaded
[09:16] <JohnHeikkila> Giles: Flasm was written in C
[09:17] <tgywa> Any one to help me with: kernel: [ 3342.350118] eth0: no IPv6 routers present
[09:17] <tgywa> on ubuntu 10.04
[09:17] <tgywa> ?
[09:17] <wizzle> hi, anyone know how to change my laptop IP?
[09:17] <xjkx> wizzle: ifconfig ?
[09:18] <jakeriver> is there any way to fix this when i close my laptop lid the mouse cursor will disappear?
[09:18] <Simon-MPFH> wizzle, system -> preferences -> network configuration
[09:18] <Simon-MPFH> jakeriver, how do you know it's dissapeared if the lid is closed?
[09:19] <wizzle> Simon-MPFH, can u give me some tutorial?
[09:19] <AvionicX> Doyle» it didn't change anything. the cursor is still left pointing.
[09:19] <Simon-MPFH> Kinda depends what the context is...   Most laptops pick up an address from DHCP from the router
[09:19] <Doyle> jakeriver: updat eyour system, it was reported as a bug a few months ago
[09:19] <Simon-MPFH> Why do you need to change it?
[09:19] <jakeriver> Simon-MPFH: ;). when i open it again the mouse is gone. i can still move the cursor but i don't see it. then i just need to restart again.
[09:20] <Simon-MPFH> jakeriver, Ah, I C.   Is your system fully up to date?  Which Ubuntu are you on?
[09:21] <wizzle> xjkx, after type ifconfig in Terminal and what next?
[09:21] <AnanD23> how to install all the packages in ubuntu which are installed in BackTrack??
[09:21] <jakeriver> i think this is 10.04 and yes it is fully updated. i did some googling and this is an old bug already 2008 noticed.
[09:21] <AnanD23> can i do that??
[09:21] <xjkx> wizzle: i'm not sure what you want to do, but if you want to change the local ip, you could ifconfig <IP_ADDRESS> eth0 for example, being eth0 your ethernet card, by ifconfig command you can see the list
[09:22] <xjkx> the list of ethernet cards
[09:22] <Doyle> AvionicX: ok, is your system fully up to date?
[09:22] <sambarino> can anyone help me with trying to fix mailman ?
[09:22] <wizzle> xjkx, how to know my current ip?
[09:23] <canadacow> ifconfig
[09:23] <Simon-MPFH> jakeriver, recover from sleep has always been a bit of a problem - do you sleep or hibernate on lid close?  try the other and see if that helps
[09:23] <AvionicX> Doyle» yes.
[09:23] <Doyle> AvionicX: What kind of mouse is it?
[09:23] <xjkx> wizzle: like canadacow said, ifconfig with no arguments give you the information, like ip, MAC, ethernet cards
[09:24] <AnanD23> where will i get the packages which are installed in backtrack??
[09:24] <wizzle> xjkx, so which line is my current ip?
[09:24] <AnanD23> to install them in ubuntu???
[09:24] <jakeriver> Simon-MPFH: ok, i'll try that. it was now "when lid is closed: blank screen" but i'll try suspending now. thank you.
[09:25] <Giles> Doyle: It turns out that its the nipple thats faulty not the touchpad, and gpointer-device-settings will only let me disable the touchpad ;(
[09:25] <Doyle> wizzle: theone that says inet addr: for the interface your'e using... wlan - wireless for example.
[09:25] <xjkx> wizzle: if you don't see a number looking like an ip, maybe it's not even set, you could set it yourself just so you'd know the number. keep in mind that it changes the local ip
[09:25] <AvionicX> Doyle» heh, i don't think it is a mouse problem. i notice that ubuntu by default don't have opposite pointing cursors. i'll try add a right pointing cursor and set it. thanks anyway. :)
[09:25] <JohnHeikkila> Giles: When you asked earlier, Flasm is written in C
[09:26] <kneaux> faulty nipples, always the faulty nipples
[09:26] <hihihi100> i need help with the following: From now on, when connecting to freenode, you should identify using the command « /msg nickserv identify your_nickname your_chosen_password ».  If you don't want to have to do this, you can set your password as the server password; how this is done depends on your IRC client.
[09:26] <Doyle> Giles: ok, did you check the BIOS yet?
[09:26] <hihihi100> how do i set my psswrd as the server passwd'
[09:26] <hihihi100> ?
[09:26] <Giles> JohnHeikkila: its harder to write cross-platform c programs not impossible
[09:26] <AnanD23>  /msg nickserv identify anand ite08005
[09:26] <hihihi100> im using xchat
[09:26] <julian-> oh the fail
[09:26] <JohnHeikkila> Giles: Yeah, but they've managed
[09:27] <Giles> Doyle: I am looking for a solution that I can do without rebooting at this stage.
[09:27] <WillPittenger> Could some explain why my titlebar buttons are on the left rather than the right?
[09:27] <wizzle> Doyle, ok i see it. how to change it?
[09:27] <Doyle> JohnHeikkila: give up on writing one app for multiple platforms, I don't htink you're at that level
[09:27] <Giles> JohnHeikkila: it requires alot of conditional compilation
[09:28] <xjkx> wizzle: in case you're having troubles understanding where the ip is, you could paste the result of the command in pastebin.com
[09:28] <timClicks> is there a shell command that allows the nth line + 5 to be printed out, e.g. lines 200-205?
[09:28] <Doyle> Giles: fail... reboot. You're not working on a server are you?
[09:28] <JohnHeikkila> Oh well
[09:29] <Doyle> wizzle: the best way to go about is to read up.. heres a good example.  http://www.liberiangeek.net/2010/06/how-to-configure-static-ip-addresses-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx/
[09:30] <Giles> Doyle: The bios thing might be a solution, can you think of another?
[09:30] <xjkx> wizzle: there is also the graphical solution, system -> networking
[09:30] <jo4> where would it be "correct" to save script data?
[09:30] <JohnHeikkila> Doyle: What about only for linux?
[09:30] <Doyle> Doyle: Spend hours researching, maybe days, then finally find out which process thred is responsible for running the nib and kill it... or you could reboot and fix it in 5 minutes
[09:30] <wizzle> thanks you all. Doyle & xjkx
[09:31] <xjkx> np
[09:31] <Giles> Doyle: yes I want to do it the hard way
[09:31] <kneaux> Hey I'm having a weird problem fullscreening flash videos on dualhead
[09:31] <Giles> "running the nib"?
[09:31] <jo4> ll
[09:31] <Doyle> JohnHeikkila: Language choice is all up to personal preference. If you know a language already try doing using it, if not, learn Python
[09:31] <AnanD23>  where will i get the packages which are installed in backtrack?? to install in ubuntu
[09:32] <Doyle> Giles: I can't support the hard way since I'm going to bed. Good luck though
[09:32] <Doyle> gnight all.
[09:32] <Emanon> anyone know how to change the task panel icon for a program?
[09:33] <spike__> who in here is using 10.10

[09:34] <AnanD23> spike__, am using tht
[09:34] <JohnHeikkila> Doyle: Okay, thank you.
[09:34] <SwedeMike> spike__: #ubuntu+1 is for 10.10
[09:34] <AnanD23> spike__, wats the matter
[09:34] <spike__> i was seeing how does it run do u have any problems with it
[09:35] <AnanD23> spike__, it s not as gud as 9.04
[09:35] <AnanD23> spike__, but gui is great
[09:35] <DJones> spike__: Probably better to ask in #ubuntu+1 thats the support channel for it until its released and most people there would be using it and probably able to give you more detail/answers
[09:35] <sacarlson> Emanon: right click on the icon, select properties, click icon,  pick icon image you want.
[09:36] <hihihi100> how do i set your password as the server password for your Ubuntu IRC connection?
[09:36] <spike__> i had 9.10 then updated to the 10.4
[09:36] <hihihi100> xchat
[09:36] <Emanon> i mean like the icon that shows on its task bar when its open
[09:36] <Emanon> not for the shortcur sacarlson
[09:36] <bazhang> hihihi100, ask in #freenode
[09:36] <sacarlson> Emanon: yes on the panel right click it
[09:37] <Emanon> doesnt show any entries for properties
[09:37] <sacarlson> Emanon: oh after the application opens?  I guess that depends on the program.
[09:37] <Emanon> yea thats why im asking
[09:38] <spike__> ok i will go ask them
[09:38] <AnanD23> ALL : WHAT YOU LIKE MORE IN UBUNTU THAN OTHER DISTRO"S????

[09:38] <bazhang> AnanD23, lose the caps
[09:38] <Emanon> AnanD23: and dont start a flame war
[09:38] <bazhang> AnanD23, please take that to #ubuntu-offtopic

[09:40] <spike__> oh ok
[09:40] <Emanon> WillPittenger: just the new thing you can change em back if you like
[09:40] <sacarlson> Emanon: I think your looking for themes as in System>preference>apperence.  I have heard of setups that mimic windows but I never tried it.
[09:41] <WillPittenger> Emanon: How?  I didn't see anything in Appearance for that.
[09:41] <Emanon> sec ill find it WillPittenger
[09:41] <spike__> im new to this chat thing just got it
[09:41] <bazhang> !controls | WillPittenger
[09:42] <Emanon> oh there you go WillPittenger listen to him ubottu is smart
[09:42] <WillPittenger> It worked.  Why isn't there a option in Appearance for it?
[09:43] <Giles> How can I disable my laptops built in mice, and use an external one instead, the built in ones are faulty
[09:44] <DJones> Giles: Do you mean disable a touchpad?
[09:44] <Giles> yes, and also a nipple which is builtin
[09:45] <WillPittenger> Trackpoint?
[09:45] <DJones> !touchpad | Giles There's a section in Ubottu's link about how to disable the touchpad
[09:45] <Giles> WillPittenger: Oh its called a trackpoint?
[09:45] <vinok> hahaha that's funny "nippple
[09:45] <WillPittenger> Well, that was IBMs name for it when they invented it.
[09:46] <sacarlson> Emanon: is this what you were looking for http://www.thevarguy.com/2010/01/05/ubuntu-linux-clone-looks-like-windows-xp/   problem with this one I think it's chinese?
[09:46] <vinok> Giles, system> preference > mouse> touchpad tab
[09:46] <erupter> hi all, how can i tell the (k)ubuntu installer not to mess up with my preexisting MBR???
[09:47] <maruseru> hello
[09:47] <vinok> !welcome | maruseru
[09:48] <Giles> DJones: okay, this tells me how to disable the touchpad, how can I disable the Trackpoint?
[09:48] <DJones> Giles: I'm not sure about the trackpoint, its not something I've ever looked into
[09:48] <Giles> DJones: I am begining to think that its the trackpoint that is faulty not the touchpad
[09:50] <spike__> i have a ?
[09:50] <maruseru> does anyone know where firefox saves search engines .xml files on ubuntu 10.04?
[09:52] <spike__> can some one help me
[09:52] <erupter> maruseru /usr/share/firefox/searchplugins/
[09:53] <maruseru> thanks!
[09:53] <DeanLearner> Hi everyone, hopefully someone will have experience with this. I know it's not strictly ubuntu but....
[09:53] <Giles> Does anyone know how to disable my TrackPoint the damn thing is driving me crazy!
[09:54] <DeanLearner> Can I use the same ssl certificate set on two different servers
[09:54] <DeanLearner> (with apache)
[09:54] <DJones> Giles: Just a thought, is there an option in the laptops bios to disable the Trackpoint?
[09:54] <DeanLearner> one is accessed by users in a certain office, one is accessed by those on the internet
[09:54] <erupter> Giles have you tried bios of your ibm?
[09:54] <Giles> DJones: no I just checked
[09:55] <Giles> erupter: its a Sony not IBM
[09:55] <vinok> Giles, im not sure about the trackpoint or if you can mess with it with xorg.conf.. maybe you can check /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d directory if you have the touchpad settings there
[09:55] <WillPittenger> Is there a way to set up a shortcut to always open something with root priledges?
[09:55] <erupter> Giles and it has a trackpoint? never heard... anyway it may have an option in the bios
[09:55] <WillPittenger> (Or at least attempt it?)
[09:56] <Giles> giles@masala:/usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d$ ls
[09:56] <Giles> 05-evdev.conf  10-synaptics.conf  10-vmmouse.conf  10-wacom.conf
[09:56] <sacarlson> DeanLearner: I think you can,  you would need to have a cert that has *.yoursite.com  so that one used comp1.yoursite.com comp2.yoursite.com
[09:56] <Giles> erupter: no option in bios
[09:56] <maruseru> /usr/share/firefox/searchplugins/   there is no folder named searchplugins, only one named defaults
[09:57] <erupter> maruseru try /usr/lib/firefox-addons/searchplugins
[09:57] <erupter> maruseru or /usr/lib64/firefox-x.x.x/searchplugins/
[09:58] <sacarlson> DeanLearner: I guess you wouldn't even need that if they were on different networks as long as the sitename.com was the same the cert would also work.
[09:58] <DeanLearner> sacarlson : fantastic, thank you, was just about to follow up and ask that :)
[09:59] <maruseru> thanks erupter, its /usr/lib/firefox-addons/searchplugins
[09:59] <erupter> maruseru you're welcome
[09:59] <Giles> vinok: I can't see anything in those files relating to my trackpoint
[09:59] <DeanLearner> sacarlson: because in the office the dns for something.domain.com points to a local address, where as outside the office, it's our colo server
[09:59] <th0r> WillPittenger: right click on the shortcut and choose Properties. Change the shortcut to call 'gksu <command>'
[10:00] <Giles> vinok: gpointer-device-settings calls it a DualPoint Stick
[10:00] <erdnase> Excuse me, anyone of you here successfully ran visual basic using wine?
[10:00] <sacarlson> DeanLearner: yes as long as your local dns server gave the correct lookup for your local mysite.com it should work.
[10:02] <vinok> Giles, sorry if its not there, i don't know how to do it anymore =(
[10:02] <DeanLearner> sacarlson: much appreciated, thanks for your help
[10:02] <sacarlson> DeanLearner: I assume you have something like bind9 dns server that gives the local network the ip's they need.
[10:02] <Giles> This used to be such a simple task, you just remove the device from xorg.conf
[10:03] <DeanLearner> sacarlson: Kind of yeah, we are quite small scale, so there's just a DNS entry on the router pointing to the local server
[10:03] <DeanLearner> (I guess that could be running bind in the background though)
[10:04] <sacarlson> DeanLearner: well if your clients  ping mysite.com from your local network and get the address of your apache2 server then it will work.
[10:04] <DeanLearner> good good, thanks again
[10:04] <Giles> vinok: for example http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-395197.html
[10:06] <Emanon> see heres my abomination in progress http://imagebin.org/113480
[10:06] <Giles> vinok: but /etc/X11/xorg.conf doesn't exist on my system
[10:07] <sacarlson> Emanon: looks perfect to me I can't tell.
[10:07] <erupter> Giles the xorg.conf is empty from release 9 or so
[10:08] <Emanon> look at the tray
[10:08] <vinok> Giles, yeah it should be like that... what happen to xorg.conf? is it empty?
[10:08] <Emanon> the firefox icon is still there
[10:08] <erupter> Giles and if you used to remove lines then it's no use...
[10:08] <spike__> guess no one cares to help me
[10:08] <erupter> Giles but if you had a line citing your device and could set it to "disable" or the likes, then you can still manually populate the xorg.conf
[10:08] <th0r> spike__: you never asked a question...or are we supposed to guess?
[10:08] <Emanon> not if you keep asking to ask spike__
[10:09] <Emanon> !ask | spike__
[10:09] <Giles> hurrah:  xinput set-int-prop "DualPoint Stick" "Device Enabled" 8 0
[10:09] <vinok> erupter, im using 10.4 and its not empty though
[10:09] <Giles> Thank god for that.
[10:09] <erdnase> [bump] Excuse me, anyone of you here successfully ran visual basic using wine?
[10:09] <Emanon> anyways switching back to main user and wiping this abomination unto stallman from my machine
[10:09] <erupter> vinok i fought with it, i learned that by default from new releases the xorg.conf is empty as xorg autodetects everything
[10:10] <Slart> !appdb | erdnase
[10:10] <erupter> giles glad for you :p
[10:10] <vinok> Giles, problem solved?
[10:10] <Giles> yep
[10:10] <Giles> xinput
[10:10] <Giles> see above
[10:10] <erdnase> Slart, I was there, no one answe- nvm, someone just did. Thanks.
[10:11] <Slart> erdnase: did you check the website? they have long lists of applications and how well they run under wine
[10:11] <spike__> ok on unetbootin which one is ubuntu is better the 9.10 live, or 9.10 hdmedia, or 9.10 netinstall
[10:11] <WillPittenger> th0r: Doesn't work.
[10:11] <erdnase> Slart, There are? I'll check, thank you.
[10:11] <Slart> !best | spike__
[10:11] <WillPittenger> I tried two different programs.
[10:11] <th0r> WillPittenger: you using kde or gnome?
[10:12] <WillPittenger> gnome, I think.
[10:12] <th0r> WillPittenger: open a terminal and type 'gksu gedit' and see if it prompts for a password
[10:12] <spike__> yeah best
[10:13] <WillPittenger> th0r: It did.
[10:13] <th0r> WillPittenger: then the same thing should work for a launcher....just add 'gksu ' in front of the command for the launcher
[10:14] <WillPittenger> I tried the standard file manager and dolphin.  Didn't work for either.
[10:14] <anAngel> Hello. How can i revert the root back to its default state because i changed its password and now its a fully active account
[10:14] <WillPittenger> Neither program even opened.
[10:15] <th0r> WillPittenger: does the launcher work at all? sounds like the shortcut might be bad
[10:15] <th0r> WillPittenger: I can't be too specific about either of those programs as I use xfce and don't have them on my system
[10:16] <WillPittenger> I took gksu off the file browser item and it worked.
[10:16] <WillPittenger> nautilus --no-desktop --browser
[10:17] <Slart> anAngel: I think there is a switch for passwd that removes the password entirely.. you'll have to check the man page
[10:17] <th0r> WillPittenger: then adding gksu in front of that should open the file manager as root...I would think. Don't think there is anything 'special' about nautilus
[10:18] <th0r> WillPittenger: try it in a terminal and see if the command line works
[10:18] <ikonia> Slart: passwd -d
[10:18] <WillPittenger> I just readded gksu and it doesn't work anymore
[10:19] <WillPittenger> th0r: I got a help page for gksu.
[10:19] <Slart> ikonia: ah.. that sounds like the one.. thanks. anAngel, did you see what ikonia said three lines up?
[10:19] <th0r> WillPittenger: try gksudo instead of gksu
[10:20] <Slart> th0r: just fyi, "gksu nautilus" works just fine here on 64bit 10.04
[10:20] <Slart> th0r: from a gnome terminal, that is
[10:20] <anAngel> Slart: yeap thanks i was reading the man pages anyway
[10:20] <th0r> Slart: yeah...I thought it should work <smile>
[10:20] <anAngel> ikonia: thanks
[10:20] <WillPittenger> th0r: It would really help if there was a property for that in the launcher property window.
[10:21] <WillPittenger> Failed.
[10:21] <WillPittenger> In the command line, same problem.
[10:21] <apoage> have problem with "Wacom Graphire4 4x5" tablet is working but have no idea how to enable Option "Twinview" "horizontal"  Option "TVresolution" "1280x1024,1920x1080" it was working until i reinstaled gimp
[10:21] <WillPittenger> sudo works.
[10:22] <th0r> WillPittenger: try gksu 'nautilus --<whatever>'   Maybe the single quotes would help
[10:22] <th0r> WillPittenger: su would work but you would have to run it in a terminal.
[10:22] <WillPittenger> That did it.
[10:23] <WillPittenger> But then it said it couldn't find /home/will%u.
[10:24] <glebihan> WillPittenger, what's the exact command you typed ?
[10:24] <WillPittenger> gksu "nautilus --no-desktop --browser "
[10:25] <apoage> please help me somebody
[10:25] <WillPittenger> I don't know where the underscore came from.
[10:25] <glebihan> WillPittenger, try forcing it to go to a specified path, ie gksu "nautilus --no-desktop --browser /"
[10:25] <WillPittenger> sudo seems to work.

[10:27] <MaximLevitsky> I don't need much explanations, but really there is a low level problem with the ubuntu image that prevents its booting

[10:28] <MaximLevitsky> I tried that on two computers and I do know that both work with USB sticks
[10:28] <apoage> MaximLevitsky, : what system do you runing (means in what system do you wan to create live usb)
[10:28] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: Ubuntu 10.04
[10:28] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: and I have seen the same problem on 9.04
[10:28] <anAngel> Slart: thanks again i found the solution but the root default state is locked password - ¨passwd -l root¨ can revert the root to its default state like when ubuntu is installed so logon, su and similar things don't work
[10:29] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: I also tried to use alternative usb disc creater
[10:29] <Slart> anAngel: ah.. didn't know that.. good hunting =)
[10:29] <MaximLevitsky> don't remember its name though
[10:29] <MaximLevitsky> doesn't help at all
[10:29] <MaximLevitsky> its something with the image, and I really need the stick now
[10:30] <apoage> MaximLevitsky, i sounds like you dont have set boot mark on usb image partion or something like it
[10:30]  * MaximLevitsky checks
[10:30] <jongolia> Hey is there anybody who can help?
[10:31] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: nope, all set
[10:31] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: also I get same error message on 2 computers
[10:31] <jongolia> Installation troubles: can't get to the installation welcome screen, everything's a graphical corruption.
[10:31] <jongolia> NOMODESET doesn't work.
[10:31] <MaximLevitsky> jongolia: nvidia card?
[10:31] <jongolia> manufacture: ASUS K40IN, Nvidia GEforce G102M
[10:32] <MaximLevitsky> jongolia: try to google around about how to disable nouveau
[10:32] <jongolia> aight, one moment.
[10:32] <apoage> MaximLevitsky: hmm and is boot sequence in bios set to include boot from usb??
[10:32] <jongolia> thanks.
[10:33] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: yep, I even select it manually
[10:33] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: boot fails after bios passes control
[10:34] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: assuming that live usb isn't broken for everyone, my only assumption is that partition sizes somehow choke the loader
[10:34] <cast> doesn't allowing the main user to execute any command as root, open up more security issues than just having the root account enabled? i don't see what security disabling it buys you
[10:35] <MaximLevitsky> cast: sure
[10:35] <cast> does sshd disable root login in the stock package?
[10:36] <jongolia> @BoltClock Hello.
[10:36] <BoltClock> jongolia: hi
[10:36] <apoage> MaximLevitsky: thinking ...
[10:37] <Davsank> Hi. can anyone tell where on earth is the 64bit i386 architecture version for Ubuntu, because i can onlt find amd64 and i'm not using AMD...
[10:38] <bazhang> Davsank, they're the same
[10:38] <erUSUL> !amd64 | Davsank
[10:38] <Davsank> erUSUL how about Intel then?
[10:38] <erUSUL> Davsank: AMD designed the architecture so they choose the name
[10:39] <bazhang> Davsank, same
[10:39] <Davsank> erUSUL So how caome i see packages built for i 386?
[10:39] <erUSUL> Davsank: intel processors implement the amd64 architecture. ( they call it EMT64 )
[10:39] <erUSUL> Davsank: that's for 32 bits
[10:40] <cast> erUSUL: EM64T, but now they call it Intel 64, and it is slightly different to AMD64
[10:40] <Davsank> erUSUL: is there an EMT64 version then? or is i 386 considered to be 32 bit?
[10:40] <erUSUL> cast: intel64 is itanium and has nothing to do with pc's
[10:40] <apoage> MaximLevitsky: ehm wile you have coppyed system(live iso or something) on usb  try to reinstall mbr on usb by "install-mbr /dev/your_usb_device"
[10:40] <erUSUL> Davsank: the amd64 version is compatible with *both* intel and amd cpu's
[10:40] <cast> erUSUL: no. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_64#Intel_64
[10:41] <erUSUL> Davsank: i can say it louder but i can not say it clearer
[10:41] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: I used ubuntu's disk creator
[10:42] <Davsank> ?
[10:42] <Loth`> use the amd64 version
[10:42] <cast> it's important to note that Intel 64 and AMD64 are *not* identical, though as far as most users go it doesn't matter
[10:43] <cramhead> hey there is ppc ubuntu supported here?
[10:43] <Loth`> it will work
[10:43] <erUSUL> !ppc | cramhead
[10:43] <cramhead> well im trying to install it on a powerbook g4 but it hangs when trying to pass the 3rd screen (selecting keyboard layout)
[10:44] <ttiicc> when do you guys think gnome3 will be shipped with a stable version of ubuntu?
[10:44] <glebihan> ttiicc, I would say not before 11.10 or 12.04, but that's just a guess
[10:45] <BoltClock> ttiicc: soon enough
[10:45] <ttiicc> okej
[10:45] <ttiicc> which's the big differences between debian and ubuntu
[10:46] <bazhang> ttiicc, lets take this to #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:46] <ttiicc> I have been working in debian and I would like to try out ubuntu, what will be the biggest differences?
[10:46] <gnomefreak> pl ease continue this topic in #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:46] <gnomefreak> bazhang: :)
[10:46] <ttiicc> okej
[10:46] <bazhang> ttiicc, thats outside the scope of this channel, thanks
[10:46] <apoage> MaximLevitsky, ok its correct way but try rewrite that mbr to usb its may help
[10:46] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: nope, install-mbr doesn't help
[10:47] <kmf> n #glug.za
[10:47] <cramhead> any clues why the installer hangs when trying to insall on a powerbook g4? At the select keyboard layout bit
[10:49] <cramhead> boobs
[10:50] <Alborz> hello
[10:50] <Alborz> how can i add a new partition to my 300GB hdd ?
[10:51] <apoage> MaximLevitsky: one more try just try to setup in bios usb as first bootable device .. but have no idea why it is refusing to boot
[10:51] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: BIOS does boot it
[10:51] <sacarlson> Alborz: look at gparted
[10:51] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: the code in the bootloader in the stick fails
[10:52] <Alborz> I tried and created two partitions but it says they are both mounted on same place
[10:52] <Alborz> someone plz clarify this mount thing
[10:53] <erUSUL> Alborz: it is alredy mounted. check the output of « cat /proc/mounts »
[10:54] <apoage> MaximLevitsky, ehh wel you firs sad it have error after boot while boot loader fails i thing it is caused by some incompatybylity/bug or something try another disk image
[10:54] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: that could be
[10:54] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: meanwhile I found this http://www.rigadicomando.org/node/58
[10:54] <slow-motion> hi
[10:55] <Kills> my movie player sometimes mutes the sound when Im playing mkv files what to do?
[10:55] <Alborz>  sacarlson thanks
[10:56] <glebihan> Kills, which movie player is it ?
[10:57] <Kills> the default
[10:57] <apoage> MaximLevitsky, yes this is the hard way .. but sometimes it helps
[10:57] <Davsank> !ping
[10:57] <glebihan> Kills, I would suggest using another one such as VLC or mplayer
[10:57] <Alborz> Kills, use vlc 1.1.4
[10:57] <Kills> mplayer doesn't work at all
[10:58] <Kills> it only palys sound -.-
[10:58] <apoage> MaximLevitsky, try the last step qemu /dev/sdb
[10:58] <Davsank> buh.. what's the point of a ping/pong bot if it doesn't show the round trip time///
[10:58] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: I did, and it works,,,,
[10:58] <Kills> i hope vlc is better on ubuntu than on windows
[10:58] <airtonix> Davsank, timestamps ?
[10:58] <bazhang> Davsank, please stay on topic   /msg ubottu factoid
[10:58] <pie_time> is there a way to copy your ubuntu installation from one partition to another and then install windows on the partition that ubuntu used to be installed on?
[10:59] <airtonix> !clone > pie_time
[10:59] <pie_time> airtonix, thanks! how about the second half of my question?
[10:59] <airtonix> pie_time, after you install windows and have re imaged the second drive/partition you need to re-initilalise grub
[11:00] <airtonix> !grub > pie_time
[11:00] <apoage> MaximLevitsky, and in real boot ?
[11:00] <bazhang> airtonix, grub2
[11:00] <pie_time> i dont think i can handle all that
[11:00] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: Single text bessage
[11:00] <pie_time> thanks though

[11:18] <apoage> MaximLevitsky, so you have right created image on usb and still failed to boot still sounds like hardware or live image problem im out of ideas
[11:18] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: Thanks for your help though
[11:18] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: I think its is something to do with geometry
[11:20] <mario__> hello
[11:20] <jongolia> blacklisting nouveau and removing 'quiet splash' still doesn't solve the problem at install screen, any ideas?
[11:22] <Bo|Su> Since using mozilla namoroka in lucid, i cannot interact with videos on youtube (volume, play...etc.).  I was up to date on all updates and reinstalled flash as well. For the heck of it, I tried chrome and have the same problem. I do not know what started it.
[11:23] <jrib> Bo|Su: does the issue persist if you disable compiz?
[11:23] <Bo|Su> yes, i stopped using that long ago to speed my boot
[11:24] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: fdisk told me about inconsistency between, but DRAT, manual partition table didn't help
[11:24] <apoage> MaximLevitsky: geometry shuld not cause things like this in case of usb drive (only with active media lide dvd cd or harddrive it shuld mater but while you using usb it cause only speed of i/o until it is not set to some astronomical numbers) emm sory i cant help with it
[11:24] <mamooth> Hi there
[11:25] <jrib> Bo|Su: well there used to be https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/444757 .  I guess you can test the workaround before we try other things
[11:25] <Bo|Su> will do. tnk
[11:26] <apoage> MaximLevitsky, em try to remove all partions on flash a create new with default block size
[11:26] <jrib> Bo|Su: of course I linked you to a dupe (see the last comment)
[11:27] <MaximLevitsky> apoage: I already did. I smell a bug in bootloader that doesn't like something.
[11:29] <Bo|Su> np. noticed it quick ;)
[11:30] <OltreIrc`15701> Helloooooo!
[11:30] <apoage> MaximLevitsky: boot loader bugs are a bit out of my knowledge :D .. only thing witch stills is byt alchemy with that usb in fdisk but it look like it das not helps
[11:31] <ha55an> hi, I have just installed 10.04.1 on an HP z400 workstation, the installation went fine. the problem is that ubuntu does not boot now. No way to even get to grub. the waird thing is that i hear the ubuntu notification sound and then the screen goes into powersave mode. any ideas?
[11:32] <Davsank> ha55an, the computer shuts down? or it stops recognizing the screen?
[11:32] <apoage> can anybody help me have problem with "Wacom Graphire4 4x5" tablet is working but have no idea how to enable Option "Twinview" "horizontal"  Option "TVresolution" "1280x1024,1920x1080" it was working until i reinstaled gimp
[11:32] <OltreIrc`15701> !list
[11:32] <jrib> ha55an: spacebar, ctrl-alt-f1 all do nothing?
[11:34] <ha55an> Davsank: it does not shoutdown, if i do the raising elephants tricks, it reboots. so i know it must be running. but the screen shuts down. if i do CTRL ALT and F4 for example to get to the shell, the keyboard stops responding, and nothing happens on the screen
[11:37] <ha55an> jrib: the keyboard stops responding if i do that

[11:39] <mouse> For the input box.
[11:39] <Hermes> any one is familiar with clustering?
[11:41] <sometux> Hermes: be specific, what's your problem?
[11:42] <Bo|Su> it would appear as though adobe is currently not supporting x86 linux flash 10. The work arounds for mozilla failed a make a difference after purging all previous flash installed files along with mozilla. I do not believe this bug report has been closed (though opened in jaunty). Any suggestions?
[11:42] <Hermes> I have a program which is written in python. I want to cluster it. any one can help me?
[11:42] <bazhang> Hermes, cluster a program?
[11:42] <jrib> Bo|Su: why do you make the statement that you believe "adobe is currently not support x86 linux flash 10"?
[11:43] <sometux> Hermes: network clustring?
[11:43] <Bo|Su> http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_64bit.html
[11:43] <Hermes> yes.
[11:43] <sometux> Hermes: searched google?

[11:44] <MrUnagi> can anyone help me troubleshoots 550 5.1.1 errors when trying to receive mail

[11:44] <Hermes> I want to know that Ubuntu has any proprietary solution or not?
[11:44] <Bo|Su> I figured that would be the case. tnk   (rodger that!)

[11:47] <rob_p> MrUnagi: The SMTP status code suggests user unknown.  Is the user that the smtp server is handling mail for, valid?
[11:47] <MrUnagi> thats what i cant seem to figure out, i can send mail from that user just fine, receiving doesnt work
[11:48] <MrUnagi> does that not indicate that the user isvalid?
[11:49] <Hermes> any one has experience with Eucalyptus?
[11:49] <rob_p> MrUnagi: No.  Your smtp server will relay mail for anyone, as long as they are local.

[12:19] <glebihan> mouse: is there a particular reason you need this ?
[12:19] <mouse> glebihan, I've been looking but I can't find one in the repositories.  There's one for windows though.
[12:20] <LinuxReign> the plugin for pidgin will not be on the repos, you need to look for it within the pidgin software
[12:20] <glebihan> mouse: I think this should work, thought I haven't tested it : http://dossy.org/2007/10/character-counting-plugin-for-pidgin/
[12:20] <mouse> glebihan, Some people on yahoo have messengers on their phones and the yahoo messenger for phones only accepts so many characters.  139 if I remember right.  Anything past that gets cut off.  It's a real problem.

[12:21] <glebihan> mouse: there's also a deb package : http://static.panoptic.com/pidgin/pidgin-convcharcount-plugin_2.3.1-1_i386.deb
[12:22] <meera> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/internet
[12:23] <glebihan> mouse: tested it, seems to work
[12:23] <meera> not shure, think have something wrong installed
[12:24] <mouse> glebihan, I'm always kinda cautious of installers from the web instead through the repositories.
[12:24] <ExtremeDevilz> Hi

[12:24] <glebihan> mouse: I understand but that kind of things, you'll rarely find packages in the repos
[12:25] <josh> who
[12:25] <mouse> glebihan, That sucks.
[12:25] <josh> hi everyone
[12:25] <LinuxReign> hiya josh
[12:26] <glebihan> mouse: well that kind of packages are often built by individuals, and the process to get a package into official repositories is not simple
[12:26] <mamooth> I'm trying to launch firefox from within a php page, for the purpose of printing to pdf. For instance, here a simple script which do that : http://pastie.org/1149825 . The problem is : When this script is launched from the command line, all is fine. But when I reach it through a LAMP server, nothing append, the command seems to abort immediately.
[12:27] <iceroot> mamooth: dont do that, print directyl with php, dont call x-apps with php
[12:27] <thiagoss> Hello, yesterday I decided to take a look on js and went to install gjs. The problem is that the installation (with apt-get) fails with 'broken package', seems to be related to the xulrunner version. Do any of you know if there's a current bug about this? I've searched around and this seems to have happened and got fixed some times already.
[12:27] <glebihan> mouse: plus, I don't say that you shouldn't be cautious, but I never encountered a package which caused damage to my system
[12:28] <mamooth> iceroot, what are the limitations of calling X apps with php?
[12:28] <HiddenHeroDH> jrib: have you read my paste?
[12:28] <jrib> HiddenHeroDH: yes.
[12:28] <HiddenHeroDH> jrib: so you don't know how to solve the problem
[12:28] <iceroot> mamooth: security, ugly, php can do it directly, ugly and very ugly
[12:29] <jrib> HiddenHeroDH: I cannot help you if you don't answer my questions, no
[12:29] <mouse> glebihan, How would you know if it's harmful before it's too late anyways?
[12:29] <HiddenHeroDH> jrib: i answered you :)
[12:29] <jrib> HiddenHeroDH: k
[12:29] <glebihan> mouse: you can always have a look at the files in the package, or even at the source code before installing it
[12:30] <mamooth> iceroot, regring our requirements for generating pdf, firefox give actually the bests results. I can take care of security issues. What I need to know is: Is this technically possible?
[12:30] <mamooth> regarding*
[12:30] <bazhang> !moo
[12:31] <HiddenHeroDH> jrib: i'm following a tutorial to install a software, but make command show me errors in the paste
[12:31] <jrib> HiddenHeroDH: look, I can't help you if you don't answer my question.  If you don't want to tell me what you are compiling for whatever reason, ask the channel for help
[12:31] <iceroot> mamooth: sure it is
[12:32] <OneMillionDollar> why ubuntu 8.04 wont auto upgrade itself to the latest 10 version ?
[12:32] <mouse> glebihan, I suppose.  Thanks for the help.
[12:32] <ebrima1> hello
[12:32] <jrib> OneMillionDollar: it offers the upgrade and you have to tell it you want it
[12:32] <HiddenHeroDH> jrib: i'm compiling a configuration for a software called NEMO, the configuration is called ORCA2_LIM
[12:32] <glebihan> mouse: you're welcome
[12:33] <mamooth> iceroot, do you have a idea of what cause the process to abort when I reach the script through apache?
[12:33] <ebrima1> thank mouse
[12:33] <philinux> OneMillionDollar: Backup first then open a terminal and use update-manager -d
[12:33] <OneMillionDollar> i mean why can't the auto update feature update it
[12:33] <iceroot> mamooth: the error-log should tell you
[12:33] <bazhang> philinux, that's not the correct command
[12:34] <jrib> HiddenHeroDH: you read its documentation and made sure you had the required dependencies.  Do you have a link for this project?
[12:34] <jrib> s/\./?
[12:34] <van7hu> What is difference between building a packet and install a packet
[12:34] <van7hu> ?
[12:34] <jrib> van7hu: you mean "package"?

[12:34] <HiddenHeroDH> jrib: yes but you must log in to see the documentation
[12:34] <StaRetji> Folks, need help with casper-rw on usb stick. I have some read/write errors and I would like to scan usb for errors, but it warns be that it is dangerous as system is mounted. Any help would be highly appreciated ;)
[12:34] <Dr_Willis> van7hu:  its a 'package' if you mean .deb  building == compiling, installing = putting it in the system
[12:34] <philinux> bazhang:  my bad not enough coffe
[12:34] <bazhang> !software > van7hu
[12:35] <glebihan> van7hu: building means compiling it, when you install it's already compiled, and you just put the files in the right places
[12:35] <Dr_Willis> StaRetji:  you could use dd_rescue to dd the whole thing to a file and then fsck/recover from that.
[12:36] <jrib> HiddenHeroDH: honestly the errors look like bugs.  Did you try contacting the project (forums, mailing list, their own irc channel, whatever?)
[12:36] <philinux> OneMillionDollar: Sorry should be this. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades#Upgrade%20from%208.04%20LTS%20to%2010.04%20LTS
[12:36] <StaRetji> Dr_Willis: I have dd image backed up, should i run fsck/recover?
[12:36] <meera> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InternetRelayChat
[12:36] <van7hu> bot is good ;-)
[12:37] <StaRetji> I've disconnected usb stick, and pluged to another system, can you help me from there?
[12:37] <adok> i need to replace this string config.php with this one, config.php?display=modules&type=tool&extdisplay=upload but i cant because sed is messing with all the &&& marks
[12:37] <adok> how can i fix this?
[12:37] <meera> tried to install x-chat and  irc freenodenet, problem causes pic, looks different in book, not shure if I forgot something, seems to funtion if write something in here
[12:37] <HiddenHeroDH> jrib: do you think that these are errors in fortran programming?
[12:37] <mamooth> iceroot, this is the problem, I have absolutely no feedback of what is happening, either in the log files or with return of the exec() function
[12:37] <mouse> glebihan, Thanks again for the help.  It works so perfectly.
[12:37] <jrib> HiddenHeroDH: well they say you need to pass the -fwhateveryourpastebinsays switch to (I guess) gfortran
[12:37] <glebihan> mouse: you're welcome :)
[12:38] <mamooth> iceroot, here's a debug script that isolate the problem: http://pastie.org/1149825
[12:38] <mamooth> if I run it in the shell, all went fine.
[12:38] <cptblod> i just installed ubuntu 10.4.1 but i cannot install nvidia drivers properly, all i end up with is a resolution of 640x480, but the driver seems to work, what do i do?
[12:38] <stk322> so...why Ubuntu Linux?
[12:38] <HiddenHeroDH> jrib: is it an error on gfortran option?
[12:38] <iceroot> mamooth: but you are not running it as the www-data user which apache is
[12:38] <iceroot> mamooth: so i guess apache cant open the display
[12:39] <stk322> I hear reasons all the time for "why not windows"
[12:39] <glebihan> mouse: by the way, if you really fear packages to damage your system, you could install a test system on a virtual machine and install packages there before installinh them on your main system
[12:39] <MASTER> ау
[12:39] <MASTER> ау
[12:39] <MASTER> ау
[12:39] <iceroot> mamooth: and DONT run apache as another user!
[12:39] <FloodBot2> MASTER: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:39] <bazhang> MASTER, ?
[12:39] <LinuxReign> i need to backup my CoD 4 disc, anyone knows something on GNU/Linux similar to Alcohol able to do that?
[12:39] <mamooth> iceroot, I use apache2-mpm-itk
[12:40] <cptblod> !nvidia
[12:40] <bazhang> LinuxReign, k9copy
[12:40] <jrib> HiddenHeroDH: it looks like that switch needs to be passed, your best bet is contacting upstream support
[12:40] <volatile_rinc> LinuxReign, just dd it
[12:40] <mouse> glebihan, Yeah I used to do that until I found out not everything works the same since it uses virtual hardware.
[12:40] <mamooth> so the process is assigned to the desired user at the fork time
[12:40] <LinuxReign> I will try dd, lets see how it goes and thx
[12:41] <glebihan> mouse: yes there are issues, but in most cases, it'll allow you to check if the package does what it pretends to
[12:47] <cptblod> i just installed ubuntu 10.4.1 but i cannot install nvidia drivers properly, all i end up with is a resolution of 640x480, but the driver seems to work, what do i do?
[12:47] <verywiseman> i am running ubuntu 9.04 in my hp mini 210-1000, and wireless is working , but i want to know which is package that provide wireless driver?
[12:49] <mamooth> iceroot, the problem come specifically from firefox. For example, I can run others X apps using the same display

[12:49] <Ubuntu-IRC> it's the name
[12:49] <Ubuntu-IRC> something like that
[12:50] <mamooth> is the fact that /usr/bin/firefox link to sh script could be the cause of the problem?

[13:08] <aaaoooaaa> hi guys have a question about nvidias xserver settings panel: WHen I change the settings and restart the changes arent saved, what should I do to make sure changes stay permanent and are applied? ubuntu karmic
[13:08] <ko0lAid> aaa000aaaa: yes
[13:09] <ko0lAid> click the apply to xfile button
[13:09] <LinuxReign> aaaoooaaa, open a terminal type, sudo nvidia-settings, make tha changes and click on Save to X Config file, then restart, your changes will be saved
[13:09] <cptblod> i just installed ubuntu 10.4.1 but i cannot install nvidia drivers properly, all i end up with is a resolution of 640x480, but the driver seems to work, what do i do?
[13:10] <aaaoooaaa> LinuxReign: there is no "save to x config file" only "save current configuration" which opens up a "save to" dialog
[13:10] <LinuxReign> cptblod, how are installing the nvidia drivers?
[13:10] <LinuxReign> aaaoooaaa, yes, thats the one, sorry, can't remember the exact text
[13:10] <cptblod> i've tried sudo apt-get install nvidia-current and also the package from nvidia.com
[13:10] <aaaoooaaa> LinuxReign: what file should I save it to and where?
[13:10] <LinuxReign> no
[13:11] <cptblod> tried the beta from nvidia.com too
[13:11] <MaximLevitsky> Folks do you know how to boot a live disk and tell it to use failsafe X mode?
[13:11] <MaximLevitsky> Is there an boot option?
[13:11] <philinux> MaximLevitsky: press any key as soon as graphics appears
[13:11] <LinuxReign> aaaooooaaaa, once the perform the changes and click to save the file will be generated automatically
[13:12] <LinuxReign> aaaoooaaa, you will never see it
[13:12] <Dr_Willis>  cptblod  you have checked the forums? also you may want to state what your exact video chipset is - to see if anyone else n the hcannel has used that chipset.
[13:12] <LinuxReign> but it will be there
[13:12] <cptblod> Dr_Willis: no, im checking here as i want help directly :) it's an nvidia 9400gt card
[13:13] <Dr_Willis> cptblod:  its also possible its how its detecting your monitor thats the issue. not the video card. Are you using VGA/DVI? what sort of connection?
[13:13] <aaaoooaaa> LinuxReign: when i click on "save current config" I get a "save to" dialog with a default filename ".nvidia-settings-rc" @ /root
[13:13] <MaximLevitsky> philinux: and then?
[13:14] <cptblod> Dr_Willis: im using VGA->DVI atm
[13:14] <LinuxReign> aaaooooaaa, that should do it
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> cptblod:  Try it without an adaptor if you can figure out how.
[13:15] <LinuxReign> brb, changing location
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> cptblod:  ive see all sorts of odd quirks with those adaptors
[13:15] <philinux> MaximLevitsky: The usual menu options appear.  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1469475
[13:15] <philinux> MaximLevitsky: It just one issue affecting lucid
[13:17] <MaximLevitsky> philinux: I talked with one user now, and we ended up booting into rescure mode and editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:17] <cptblod> i will try VGA native now Dr_Willis
[13:18] <philinux> MaximLevitsky: Failsafe mode is one of the menu option along with Check cd for defects ect.
[13:18] <cptblod> same res Dr_Willis
[13:18] <cptblod> only 640x480 and 320x240
[13:18] <Dr_Willis> cptblod:  can you run the 'nvidia-settings' tool ?
[13:19] <MaximLevitsky> philinux:where ?
[13:19] <MaximLevitsky> philinux: I use 10.4
[13:20] <undecim> what's name of the binary for  the DUA?
[13:20] <undecim> (disk usage analyzer)
[13:21] <cptblod> Dr_Willis: yes
[13:21] <philinux> MaximLevitsky: unless you hit any key when the first graphic shows up all you get is install or try ubuntu. They decided to make the install non interactive. :/
[13:21] <Besogon> I have 2 eth cards. but I can't turn on broadcast between them
[13:22] <Besogon> Is there some secret I don't know
[13:22] <Besogon> ?
[13:22] <MaximLevitsky> philinux: I did hit a key
[13:22] <philinux> MaximLevitsky: And what menu appeared
[13:22] <undecim> Besogon: You mean to share the connection between the two?
[13:22] <undecim> !ics | Besogon
[13:23] <MaximLevitsky> few things, checks for defects for example
[13:23] <philinux> MaximLevitsky: Is safe graphics not an option then.

[13:28] <undecim> Wren01: You talkign about ndiswrapper?
[13:28] <iceroot> Wren01: ndiswrapper if you mean "allows to use windows ndrivers on linux"
[13:28] <Wren01> yes
[13:28] <undecim> Wren01: It's the one that lets you run some broadcom drivers on linux
[13:28] <Wren01> yeah that's it
[13:29] <undecim> Wren01: Though since broadcom released linux drivers, i don't think there is any use for it now
