[11:26] <vistakiller> you ban the people that complain about something?
[11:26] <ikonia> vistakiller: it will get progressed, if you provide helpful information
[11:26] <garry> can i back up my data online
[11:26] <ikonia> vistakiller: complaining in here will do nothing
[11:26] <vistakiller> i help with bug reports 4 years now
[11:26] <aeon-ltd> vistakiller: haha lol, 'famous', not likely just a big channel is all
[11:26] <ikonia> vistakiller: that's great, so you know the process
[11:26] <slidinghorn> xibalba, if you'd like you can also check out #ubuntu-beginners -- less clutter there :)
[11:26] <vistakiller> and i am member in loco community of ubuntu
[11:27] <Tomashe> i installed x11vnc hwo do i connect to it ?
[11:27] <PeterNL> aeon-ltd: it's not using 100% now. That was only once, and it was a few months ago. And there is http, ssh, postfix, dovecot, transmission, php, mysql and lots of other things running on that box :D
[11:27] <vistakiller> you can say just "stop now" so easy to me
[11:27] <ikonia> vistakiller: then you know the process, so use the process to help with the bug instead of complaining in here
[11:27] <WaltzingAlong> stop now
[11:27] <ikonia> vistakiller: I have said stop, I'd suggested how to progress the bug, so I don't want to see any more on it please.
[11:27] <vistakiller> i help the bug report but nothing happens
[11:27] <abhijit> #ubuntu-bugs?
[11:27] <ikonia> abhijit: why are you suggesting random channels ?
[11:28] <llutz> xibalba<EMAIL_ADDRESS> <- typo in address .om/.com?  how should postfix deliver to a non-existing domain/host
[11:28] <abhijit> ikonia, not random. he says that something with solving bugs.
[11:28] <ikonia> abhijit: do you know what the topic of #ubuntu-bugs is?
[11:28] <vistakiller> ok i live in your happy community world guys this was not the ubuntu that i know all this years
[11:28] <vistakiller> something have change
[11:28] <aeon-ltd> PeterNL: oh okay, fair enough
[11:28] <abhijit> ikonia, bugsquad
[11:28] <ikonia> abhijit: and how will that help him resolve his bug?
[11:28] <vistakiller> low quality test and none from developers have hear the problem that we report
[11:28] <tecb0y> how do you setup a ssh tunneling server
[11:29] <Benkinooby> Tomashe: type to console : man x11vnc
[11:29] <tecb0y> so i can connect back to it when i am out of the house ?
[11:29] <abhijit> ikonia, dunno. but he can meet some people working on that bug and he can talk to them
[11:29] <tecb0y> i can only find documentation on the client side
[11:29] <ikonia> abhijit: no he can't
[11:29] <tecb0y> no the server side configuration
[11:29] <abhijit> ikonia, ok
[11:29] <Tomashe> i installed it and open ports and set a passwrod
[11:29] <ikonia> abhijit: the people "working" on that bug are not in that channel, it's Bug Squad, not the developers working on it
[11:29] <Tomashe> whats now
[11:29] <Benkinooby> Tomashe: i don't have x11vnc at hand right now, so i can't tell u the command straight... btw do you have a vnc server running at the computers you want to connect to?
[11:29] <WaltzingAlong> Tomashe: installing x11vnc - done; now start x11vnc, which starts a vnc server attached to an x11 session.
[11:29] <abhijit> ikonia, ohh I see. ok
[11:29] <PeterNL> g2g, bye!
[11:30] <aeon-ltd> PeterNL: bye
[11:30] <WaltzingAlong> Tomashe: followed by a vnc client to the computer where you ran x11vnc
[11:30] <tecb0y> i want to be able to run all my http traffic securely
[11:30] <Tomashe> hmm
[11:30] <Tomashe> can offer me a good client ?
[11:30] <Tomashe> a windows client that i can see the ubuntu machine from
[11:30] <WaltzingAlong> ultravnc.sf.net
[11:30] <ikonia> Tomashe: ##windows for windows software discussion please.

[11:33] <llutz> tecb0y: "ssh -D 8888 user@youserver" to setup a SOCKS-proxy. point your local webbrowser to localhost:8888 "SOCKS 5" then to use the tunnel
[11:33] <WaltzingAlong> Tomashe: and you are connecting from another local machine?
[11:33]  * greenone Use GSTM for linux tunnel app btw

[11:34] <Tomashe> <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:34] <abhijit> !ask | gops
[11:34] <WaltzingAlong> Tomashe: putty will look at port 22, guess you were to try <IP_ADDRESS> in ultravnc (connecting to port 5900)
[11:34] <Benkinooby> Tomashe: you need to have avnc server started on your target computer
[11:35] <Tomashe> tightvnc not ultra
[11:35] <tecb0y> llutz, i tried ssh -D 9999 tec@myserver -p 5555
[11:35] <Tomashe> on tightvnc i cannt change the port
[11:35] <n0a1ias> hey so every time i try to open software center, it loads, then  closes instintly and idk y

[11:36] <abhijit> hello Slifer :)
[11:37] <Tomashe> how do i check if it's running or now
[11:37] <Tomashe> ?
[11:37] <WaltzingAlong> Tomashe: <IP_ADDRESS>:5900
[11:37] <greenone> you have to connect to localhost:5800 in VNC when the tunnel is running
[11:37] <WaltzingAlong> Tomashe: nmap <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:37] <tecb0y> llutz, ok sweet works !
[11:37] <foolguy> Can I use a ps3 controller with ubuntu over usb?
[11:37] <Tomashe> nmap is currenty not installed
[11:37] <tecb0y> llutz, so i just leave the the terminal logged in?
[11:38] <llutz> tecb0y: yes, if you close it, you'll close the tunnel
[11:38] <BadElvis> hi, i want to write a linux driver for a usb sim card reader. it consists of a usb-to-serial converter and a hex-inverter. http://www.linux-usb.org/ seems to be interesting but seems a little bit outdated. what is a good point to start reading?
[11:38] <Benkinooby> Tomashe:t this one helped me a lot, but i guess you allread read it https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC
[11:39] <Benkinooby> Tomashe: do you have phsyical access to the server and the (windows) desktop?
[11:40] <Tomashe> it's in the next room
[11:40] <Tomashe> i dont have screen there
[11:40] <Tomashe> so i want to use the vnc
[11:40] <jeffmr_> I've installed bt4 to a usb thumb drive by formatting it as fat32 in mac os and then using netbootin and an iso image in bt4.  I've also installed refit and bt4 on a partition on my hard drive.  Refit recognizes and boots the linux partition but it recognizes and won't boot the usb drive.  It appears with a bootcamp symbol over it and says its a legacy os but when I select it to  boot the screen goes black and the computer heats up.  I've cr
[11:40] <jeffmr_> bootable drives with other linux oses.  Is there any reason this doesn't work?  Backtrack is an ubuntu distribution and I've asked on their channel.
[11:41] <vicky_> hey ppl
[11:41] <bazhang> jeffmr_, bt4 in #backtrack-linux
[11:41] <jeffmr_> bazhang, I've been there
[11:41] <jeffmr_> not many mac users
[11:41] <bazhang> jeffmr_, its not supported here.
[11:41] <jeffmr_> are you an admin?
[11:41] <bazhang> jeffmr_, does it matter? its not supported here.
[11:42] <Benkinooby> Tomashe: just to get it right: your'e sitting in front of a win computer wich you want to use to controll your ubuntu server via vnc. the server has no monitor.
[11:42] <jeffmr_> well, it does because its linux, this is a huge linux forum, and their might be a linux guru here that knows the answer considering that there are 1441 members here.
[11:42] <ikonia> jeffmr_: backtrack linux is not supported here, do not ask again
[11:42] <bazhang> !backtrack > jeffmr_
[11:42] <ikonia> jeffmr_: you have been given the correct channel to join
[11:43] <jeffmr_> I'm not asking for support, I'm asking it anyone knows, what is this a concentration camp?
[11:43] <Benkinooby> hahahahahahahaha
[11:44] <ikonia> jeffmr_: this channel supports/discusses Ubuntu only,
[11:44] <Benkinooby> sorry, this was inappropriate
[11:44] <ikonia> Benkinooby: thank you
[11:44] <jeffmr_> backtrack is ubuntu
[11:44] <ilovefairuz> !backrack | jeffmr_
[11:44] <ilovefairuz> !backtrack | jeffmr_
[11:44] <ikonia> jeffmr_: no it's not, this is the last time you will be told
[11:45] <jeffmr_> konia are you admin?
[11:45] <ikonia> jeffmr_: it doesn't matter, please respect the channels topic
[11:45] <bassist> quit
[11:46] <Benkinooby> whoa... it could ahve be so easy: if jeffmr_ would have tried the same thing with ubuntu instead of bt to lern how to do it....
[11:46] <jeffmr_> I've already done that
[11:46] <ikonia> Benkinooby: backtrack has differnces, hence why it's not supported here
[11:46] <jeffmr_> say hi to your 'dads' for me
[11:46] <ikonia> Benkinooby: they also have a good support channel, however backtrack is not aimed at "new" users, so they don't cut a lot of slack

[12:44] <Kunin> ilovefairuz: I'm trying to figure out why all of the sudden my mouse and keyboard do not respond (mouse is partial, movement works as does the reprogrammed buttons, but primary buttons do not)
[12:45] <Kunin> ilovefairuz that's what I thought, and that shouldn't be the cause of my problem... very confusing
[12:45] <ilovefairuz> Kunin: anything relevant in Xorg's log?
[12:46] <its-me-again> is ffmpeg a linux application
[12:46] <Kunin> ilovefairuz nothing that stands out to me
[12:46] <bazhang> its-me-again, in the repos
[12:46] <ilovefairuz> its-me-again: yes, a command line utility

[12:48] <troubled> did ubuntu break standby mode recently (since last round of updates)? Suspend no longer works. The system just beeps on startup and I am forced to restart with a reset
[12:48] <Kunin> having two computers is useful :P
[12:49] <lxsys> ilovefairuz: usb mounted but won't let me write to it, coming up with permission denied.
[12:49] <ilovefairuz> lxsys: format?
[12:50] <troubled> either ubuntu broke suspend on my machine during last updates or after being instructed to test the latest vanilla kernel (maverick). Any ideas if the kernel would cause any tools to update in a way that would break the system suspend?
[12:51] <bazhang> troubled, maverick kernel with lucid? that is explicitly not supported
[12:51] <troubled> Linux compaq 2.6.18-bootsplash+ipset+u32+ipp2p+mms+sip-1 #1 Tue May 13 12:18:52 EDT 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[12:51] <abhijit> hello
[12:51] <troubled> oops, wrong machine, sec :)
[12:51] <troubled> bazhang: Linux wks 2.6.32-24-generic #38-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jul 5 09:20:59 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[12:52] <bazhang> troubled, thats not the maverick kernel
[12:52] <troubled> bazhang: I was specifically told to test a problem in 10.04 with the .35 current kernel. I did. since then the system fails to suspend.
[12:52] <bazhang> troubled, that was not good advice. and it is explicitly not supported.
[12:53] <troubled> bazhang: let me explain it better. I suspend and have suspended this machine every day without problems since january when I installed. 2 days ago I tried the maverick kernel and had a system update. one of those 2 things broke suspend
[12:53] <jrib> troubled: so don't use the maverick kernel?
[12:53] <troubled> jrib: im not, but i did boot it once to test something. just putting it out there. I just pasting the `uname -a` of what i am actually runing now
[12:53] <bazhang> troubled, indeed. and using a kernel from a development release is explicitly not supported for just such a reason. it will break things.
[12:54] <jrib> troubled: then don't say you're using it, that's confusing :)
[12:54] <admini> test
[12:54] <troubled> jrib: sorry, bad wording. Not "using", had "tried" it to test for a problem for a bug report.
[12:54] <sobersabre> hi.
[12:55] <jrib> troubled: anyway, it shouldn't have affected anything else afaik
[12:55] <sobersabre> I have ubuntu machine, and it has a file /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.firefox
[12:55] <quiescens> i'm still using 2.6.31, which occasionally fails suspend, 2.6.32 frequently breaks usb and/or video acceleration requiring a restart to fix, and 2.6.34 causes X to completely die resulting in loss of any work in progress
[12:55] <sobersabre> inside that file there are these settings:
[12:55] <troubled> bazhang: thats fine, but any idea what might update in the config files that might have tweaked their configs that might break suspend by even just trying maverick?
[12:55] <quiescens> so for the timebeing, 2.6.31 is still the.. least annoying of 3 evils
[12:55] <moshisushi> hello! i'm trying to follow this guide: http://shifteightgeneration.com/content/wdtler-fix-tler-setting-wd-desktop-hard-drives, but now i need to make a bootable usb stick instead of burning the image to a CD
[12:55] <moshisushi> because my server has no CD drive
[12:55] <bazhang> troubled, no idea about maverick kernels and current releases, sorry
[12:55] <troubled> jrib: thats what I am thinking. but its either that or the last update to the system from proposed. just here checking if anyone else might have noticed it
[12:55] <moshisushi> how do i do that in ubuntu?
[12:56] <bazhang> moshisushi, unetbootin
[12:56] <bazhang> moshisushi, assuming it is a linux iso
[12:56] <troubled> a look at the syslog though seems to show like the system, upon powerup, starts logging as if its finishing shutting down for a suspend, then it locks up and I get the beeps
[12:57] <moshisushi> bazhang: nah it's not a linux iso really
[12:57] <bazhang> moshisushi, what iso
[12:57] <Guest79166> kk
[12:57] <troubled> bazhang: got a system you can suspend real fast? :)
[12:57] <moshisushi> bazhang: not sure what it really is.. it's a CD for fixing Western Digital drives
[12:57] <bazhang> troubled, works fine for me
[12:58] <moshisushi> bazhang: it's FreeDOS or something
[12:58] <Guest79166> do any one here know hacking?
[12:58] <troubled> bazhang: nice to know its an isolated problem. thanks :)
[12:58] <bazhang> moshisushi, no idea if unetbootin can handle that.
[12:58] <sobersabre> anyway, how do I disable this apparmor setting?
[12:58] <bazhang> Guest79166, kernel hacking?
[12:59] <Guest79166> no web site hacking?
[12:59] <jrib> troubled: what was your reasoning for testing the kernel?
[12:59] <bazhang> Guest79166, no, dont ask here
[12:59] <Kunin> ilovefairuz see anything?
[12:59] <Guest79166> k..........
[12:59] <lxsys> ilovefairuz: i'm just going to type it cant be bothered to get stupid usb to work, shouldn't take 20 minutes :(
[12:59] <ilovefairuz> moshisushi: i haven't to make freedos boot of usb for a similar thing but it failed to boot though I didn't pursue it much, try asking in #freedos
[12:59] <troubled> jrib: I was asked by a dev in a bug report
[12:59] <jrib> troubled: right, but regarding what?
[12:59] <ilovefairuz> Kunin:  still looking
[13:00] <ilovefairuz> lxsys: right-click and format is not working ?
[13:00] <troubled> jrib: a dvd problem. seems the latest kernel is fine with it
[13:00] <troubled> well, dvd drive
[13:00] <jrib> troubled: ok, just figured maybe it was related
[13:00] <ilovefairuz> moshisushi: haven't been able *
[13:01] <lxsys> ilovefairuz: yes it is, but teh other laptop keeps throwing up permission denied
[13:01] <troubled> jrib: nah. but as I was saying, this only happened the last 2 days, and the only thing that happened since was the .35 test and a package update
[13:01] <moshisushi> ilovefairuz: however it's not really freedos....
[13:01] <jrib> troubled: do you know what packages were updated?
[13:01] <moshisushi> i mean.. FreeDOS is ON tehre
[13:01] <Kunin> ilovefairuz well... apparently some keys are working, kill X did
[13:01] <moshisushi> but you boot the CD, THEN you select FreeDOS
[13:01] <ilovefairuz> lxsys: mount it and copy using, sudo cp /path/to/file  /media/disk/
[13:01] <moshisushi> so i guess it's just some kind of bootable CD
[13:02] <troubled> jrib: not off hand. was some stuff from proposed and some stuff from security. i'd have to go through the logs
[13:02] <lxsys> ilovefairuz: tried that, won't work. also made a file on the usb from working laptop and it was ok, edited it on other laptop and it wasn't happy.
[13:02] <ilovefairuz> moshisushi: yes it is, the disk utility runs on freedos
[13:02] <jrib> troubled: hmm, proposed isn't really meant to be used as a an "always-on" repository
[13:03] <troubled> jrib: ya, might just be the first time ive been bitten by having it on. i don't want to disable it now though in case I start getting missing dependancy issues
[13:03] <jrib> troubled: you won't get missing dependency issues
[13:04] <lxsys> ilovefairuz: nevermind, somehow smacking the laptop in rage got the damn card to work... must be loose connection
[13:04] <ilovefairuz> !who | moshisushi
[13:04] <troubled> jrib: even if I remove something that was updated to a higher version than is stock and they depend on stuff that was from proposed or pulled in from it?
[13:04] <Kunin> ilovefairuz and a new error when X restarted: could not updates ICEauthority file /var/lib/gdm/.ICEauthority
[13:04] <moshisushi> ilovefairuz: sure :>
[13:04] <quiescens> percussive maintenance
[13:05] <ilovefairuz> moshisushi: what you are referring to is just the bootloader, the actual OS is freedos
[13:05] <jrib> troubled: you're removing things, dependencies aren't required to remove something and apt would tell you if other things depend on it
[13:05] <troubled> jrib: well, guess ill disable it than, thanks
[13:06] <moshisushi> ilovefairuz: so getting the image on there with UNetbootin set to FreeDOS is worth a try?
[13:06] <moshisushi> ilovefairuz: well, that's what i'm doing now anyway
[13:06] <ilovefairuz> moshisushi: i don't think it would, but try it
[13:07] <ilovefairuz> Kunin: sudo chown -R gdm /var/lib/gdm
[13:08] <Kunin> ilovefairuz was about to do that, just looking to see what it was now... user landscape and group admin... no idea what either of those are
[13:09] <Kunin> ilovefairuz and the original problem still exists
[13:09] <ilovefairuz> moshisushi: http://wiki.fdos.org/Installation/BootDiskCreateUSB has instructions for ubuntu
[13:09] <ilovefairuz> Kunin: the keyboard/mouse are not working even after restarting X?
[13:10] <Kunin> ilovefairuz correct, still not working
[13:10] <ilovefairuz> Kunin: there could be a memory corruption somewhere, try rebooting?
[13:10] <Kunin> ilovefairuz BUT, they do work through synergy, so the keystrokes and such are being registered somewhere
[13:11] <Kunin> ilovefairuz IE, I can move my mouse onto this computer, and using the mouse/keyboard from my main type this message
[13:11] <wh1sk3yj4ck> how do I run a cli command so that it doesn't go into .bash_history?
[13:12] <Kunin> ilovefairuz or, more odd... keyboard works (on both systems), but mouse still does not work (on either)
[13:12] <llutz> wh1sk3yj4ck: start the line with a space
[13:12] <ilovefairuz> Kunin: pkill synergys and start it again
[13:12] <wh1sk3yj4ck> llutz, cheers mate
[13:15] <Kunin> ilovefairuz no apparent change
[13:16] <ilovefairuz> Kunin: more than one synergys could be running, try killall -KILL synergys, and restart X
[13:17] <Kunin> ilovefairuz unless they can hide from ps -e I doubt it, but ok
[13:17] <girgoo> exit
[13:18] <HaarDz> How i can use the sed command to change this " ' " character
[13:19] <allguru> i have improved www.noobsnetwork.com !!! , what do you think?

[13:43] <alberto> hola
[13:43] <second> I'm trying to restore a computer for some relatives -_- I setup ubuntu and they used an EXTREMLY weak password, it seems as though someone has guessed the password (go figure) and removed root from all users but themselves, the computer isn't always on which is why they are never logged in. I can see the user account
[13:43] <ilovefairuz> !es | alberto
[13:43] <second> how do I get the computer to drop a root shell ?
[13:43] <moshisushi> ilovefairuz: it all worked
[13:43] <ilovefairuz> e01: from applications menu
[13:43] <moshisushi> ilovefairuz: thanks
[13:44] <ilovefairuz> moshisushi: you're welcome
[13:44] <second> I did init=/bin/bash from grub and it dropped a shell but I was unable to get it to passwd
[13:44] <linxeh> abhijit: I'll take a look, thanks
[13:44] <second> it kept saying invalid auth tokens etc
[13:44] <second> so I tried the recoverymenu but the text on that is messed up too
[13:45] <ilovefairuz> second sudo passwd to change the root password
[13:45] <greenone> linxeh: Enna or Moovida
[13:45] <e01> ilovefairuz, i had no glipper or clipboard manager in the menues
[13:45] <linxeh> abhijit: that looks great, thanks
[13:45] <second> ilovefairuz: I was root
[13:45] <linxeh> greenone: ok I'll take a look at those too - many thanks
[13:45] <william> hello

[13:46] <linxeh> greenone: those don't do anything like what I want to do ?
[13:46] <second> ilovefairuz: I was in a dropped shell after init=/bin/bash
[13:46] <calebr> hi, does anybody know if it is possible to get boost > 1.40 for ubuntu as deb package?
[13:46] <william> go ubuntu!

[13:48] <calebr> linxeh: yeah, libboost is in 1.40 and i need at least 1.41. lastest is 1.43
[13:48] <justakill> well it works its about my repository's
[13:48] <blurid> i want to install another linux distribution via usbstick. Or trnsferred the bootloader to my usb is bit of a problem
[13:48] <linxeh> calebr: oh sorry I didnt read ;-)
[13:48] <greenone> Linxeh : Thats true, u can try VideoCut or AviDemux to do something like that but thats all i know about video apps like iMovie, but maybe those apps will help :)
[13:49] <justakill> i'm not sure i have the right ones for my distribution
[13:49] <linxeh> greenone: fwiw, kdenlive is exactly what I was after :)
[13:49] <linxeh> greenone: thanks!
[13:49] <ilovefairuz> !unetbootin | justakill
[13:49] <blurid> there most be a program or something??
[13:49] <ilovefairuz> !unetbootin > blurid
[13:49] <linxeh> blurid: yes, try unetbootin
[13:49] <second> ilovefairuz: I'm trying to reset the root password
[13:50] <greenone> linxeh, thanks will have a look at those apps later
[13:50] <second> also the user that logs into gnome (auto-login) has had its password changed too
[13:50] <ilovefairuz> second: login normally to the machine and sudo passwd
[13:50] <JackNocturne> i need help about ddrescue > http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/rpvjzsin  < thanks in advance
[13:51] <second> ilovefairuz: sudo needs a password -_-
[13:51] <second> which I don't have
[13:51] <ilovefairuz> second: what happens when you try passwd in init=/bin/bash ?
[13:51] <Random832> second: you don't have a password on your regular user?
[13:52] <Random832> i don't think that configuration is supported
[13:52] <ilovefairuz> !pm | Tomashe
[13:52] <second> Random832: nope that was changed by whoever hacked in
[13:53] <Tomashe> noone helps me
[13:53] <hiromi> Tomashe, ask again
[13:53] <second> ilovefairuz: I think it may be because I didn't have rw, I had ro
[13:53] <second> forgot about that
[13:53] <ilovefairuz> second: use livecd, and chroot to your root partition, then execute passwd
[13:53] <Tomashe> i cannt understand why my vpn isnt working i installed the x11vpn using that : http://lifehacker.com/317125/set-up-vnc-on-ubuntu-in-four-steps
[13:53] <Tomashe> then downloaded tightvpn client
[13:53] <second> ilovefairuz: -_- mhm that was my first idea but they lost the cd
[13:53]  * second is doing this over the phone -_-
[13:53] <Tomashe> but still cannt connect to the network on my localhost
[13:54] <hiromi> Tomashe, is the VNC port open on both firewalls
[13:54] <ilovefairuz> second: append: rw init=/bin/bash
[13:54] <Tomashe> i dont know atm i'm using putty to connect my server
[13:54] <second> ilovefairuz: i'll try that next, last time had ro (read-only)
[13:54] <Tomashe> and i'm kinda n00b
[13:54] <hiromi> Tomashe, hold on
[13:55] <Tomashe> when i do nmap <IP_ADDRESS> it gives me some values
[13:55] <e01> ilovefairuz, i restart gnome and glipper is apearing now:)
[13:55] <e01> 10x
[13:55] <llutz> second: install a fresh OS on that machine.if someone hacked in, you cannot be sure he hasn't left some more things. you cannot trust this system
[13:55] <Random832> second: edit /etc/shadow and replace the encrypted password with "VwL97VCAx1Qhs" - that sets it to "root"
[13:55] <Random832> or yeah just reinstall
[13:55] <Random832> llutz: though if they changed the root password they're not that subtle :P
[13:56] <JackNocturne> i need help with this http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/rpvjzsin
[13:56] <Random832> and changed the user password
[13:56] <second> llutz: I'll just lock everyone out
[13:56] <robotjox> hello, I wonder if anyone here can help me - I'm trying to log into a networked server through a remote connection with ssh, but I get a "Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-with-mic)" all the time. I don't know much about ssh, but I have been asked if I have "enabled port forwarding in my client", but I am using bash, so that should be alright, yes?
[13:56] <Random832> second: technically even if you do that and even if it _tells_ you everything's locked down, there could be a hole it's been programmed not to tell you about
[13:56] <second> llutz: you don't know these people, they would really really f that machine up if they tried to do a fresh install
[13:56] <llutz> Random832: speculation, you cannot be sure. so reinstall is the only way to get a known state
[13:57] <second> Random832: I'll have to do the best I can
[13:57] <second> at least until I go visit them
[13:57] <Random832> how would they "f it up" (also language)
[13:57] <second> Random832: >_> you don't know them, trust me on this one
[13:58] <ilovefairuz> robotjox: bash is a shell not an ssh client
[13:58] <ilovefairuz> !ssh | robotjox
[13:58] <second> that machine also has windows on it, they would wipe that and all their datas :P and I would be blamed for it
[13:58] <robotjox> ilovefairuz: oh, yes - so I guess I'm using "open-ssh", then?
[13:59] <karmic-koala> hi all, anyone knows what's the opposite of easy_install (aka if i wanted to get rid of stuff installed using easy_install) ???
[13:59] <JackNocturne> help with ddrescue  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/rpvjzsin
[13:59] <ilovefairuz> robotjox: yes openssh
[14:01] <eigentor> Hm how can I disable password request when installing software from the software center
[14:01] <robotjox> ilovefairuz: but do you have any idea why I can't get in?
[14:01] <eigentor> I trust myself ;)
[14:01] <ilovefairuz> JackNocturne: unmounting it will ensure no data is written
[14:01] <abhijit> how to see my gnome version?
[14:01] <JackNocturne> thank you : )
[14:01] <william> go into system monitor
[14:02] <ubuntu-usr> hi all
[14:02] <abhijit> william, thanks
[14:02] <william> welcome
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> abhijit: dpkg -l | grep gnome-common
[14:02] <ilovefairuz> robotjox: is that the first time you use ssh?
[14:02] <ubuntu-usr> does anyone know how to send file from symbian s60.3 using putty?
[14:02] <robotjox> ilovefairuz: I have done a "-v" debug, but all I get is "Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-with-mic)"
[14:03] <abhijit> ActionParsnip, ok
[14:03] <robotjox> ilovefairuz: no I have used it often
[14:03] <robotjox> ilovefairuz: but never with forwarding
[14:03] <ubuntu-usr> i'm using ssh connection to ubuntu
[14:03] <ilovefairuz> robotjox: type: ls -l  ~/.ssh/id*
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> eigentor: you need to type the password as you are using gksudo as your user is just that, a user but you are in a special group to allow you to use sudo and gksudo
[14:04] <eigentor> ActionParsnip: eh....
[14:04] <robotjox> ilovefairuz: that lists the keys
[14:04] <eigentor> gksudo
[14:04] <eigentor> hm
[14:04] <eigentor> well I use the shell regularly on my webserver
[14:04] <eigentor> but on the desktop this is new ground for me
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> eigentor: its the correct way to run graphical apps with elevated priveledges, sudo for graphical apps like nautilus and gedit will ruin file ownerships
[14:05] <ilovefairuz> robotjox: ssh-copy-id user@host
[14:05] <Utrinqueparatus> can you install une to a sd card
[14:05] <eigentor> ActionParsnip: ok
[14:05] <eigentor> but I had problems understanding what I should do
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> Utrinqueparatus: sure, there is an option in the livecd to install to usb
[14:05] <KrisKo> ubuntu-usr: copying files via ssh: scp /path/to/file/file.xxx user@computer:/store/file/here/
[14:06] <Utrinqueparatus> ActionParsnip: i have no cd drive its a netbook
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> eigentor: just stick with it, it makes the system more secure
[14:06] <pula_n_pizda> hello i have problem with login
[14:06] <eigentor> ActionParsnip: sure
[14:06] <robotjox> ilovefairuz: then I get the "Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-with-mic)" again :(
[14:06] <KrisKo> ubuntu-usr: not sure if U can copy files from e.g. mobile phone running symbian
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> Utrinqueparatus: do you just want to install from SD card or install as a persistant install to the SD card/
[14:06] <Utrinqueparatus> either or
[14:07] <ActionParsnip> Utrinqueparatus: ok then you can use usb-creator-gtk in an established Ubuntu once you download (and MD5 test) the ISO you want
[14:08] <ubuntu-usr> KrisKo, i'll check it. but i think that's impossible because this command will be given remontly. i'm wrong? how about put command?
[14:09] <artinstartin> How can I change the settings of the audio (amplifieing the already 100% volume) permanently?
[14:09] <froschi> ubuntu-usr: i think you really can not with putty
[14:09] <KrisKo> ubuntu-usr: put command is for ftp protocol, it has diferent syntax, but it's also possible to copy files via ftp
[14:10] <ilovefairuz> robotjox: try loggin it using: ssh -o "PubkeyAuthentication no"  user@host
[14:10] <Utrinqueparatus> i am trying to copy files from ubuntu to an external ntfs hdd and it keeps giving me the error: error open file "file path" input/output error
[14:10] <ubuntu-usr> KrisKo, so in this case my server should have ftp server too?
[14:11] <KrisKo> yes
[14:11] <aaronyy> ssh has buildin sftp
[14:11] <XimDev> dear all, how do I know the model and brand of my hard disk using commandline in ubuntu
[14:11] <XimDev> and serial number
[14:12] <oCean_> XimDev: use lshw
[14:12] <ikonia> XimDev: your hard disk vendor may have tools, but it's doubtful
[14:12] <ilovefairuz> Utrinqueparatus: check cables, or try formatting the disk, if neither worked it's a hardware issue
[14:13] <llutz> XimDev: hdparm -I /dev/sdX
[14:13] <ikonia> oCean_: nice one, didn't know that showed the disks serial
[14:13] <troubled> XimDev: hdparm -i /dev/XXX should tell you all
[14:13] <XimDev> thanks a lot oCean_ ikonia and llutz
[14:13] <XimDev> thanks a lot troubled
[14:14] <robotjox> ilovefairuz: thanks for your help, but now I can't even log into the remote server anymore let alone the remote computer I am trying to access. I think there's a  problem on their end. Thanks again!
[14:14] <llutz> troubled: -i won't show serial
[14:14] <oCean_> ikonia: hdparm seems to do the trick also!
[14:14] <troubled> llutz: does on mine
[14:14] <robotjox> ilovefairuz: I'll try to contact them. Thanks!
[14:14] <troubled> llutz: even tells me the firmware rev
[14:14] <ilovefairuz> robotjox: their firewall probably blocked you for repeated attempts, and you're welcome
[14:14] <llutz> troubled: my bad, you're right, sry
[14:15] <troubled> ;)
[14:17] <froschi> ubuntu-usr: i'd go the other way and find some ssh client for s60, like http://thinkabdul.com/2007/11/29/rsync-symbian-synchronize-nokia-s60-files-with-multiple-foldersdirectories-on-computer-via-ssh-over-wifi/ <- never tried it, but will soon :)
[14:20] <padhu> Which is the best GUI firewall for ubuntu 10.04?
[14:20] <KeithChester> im trying to get eeepc acpi support package installed, but am getting the following error message:
[14:20] <padhu> gucf  or firestarter?
[14:20] <troubled> padhu: firestarter seems to do an okay job. i use shorewall now though
[14:20] <KeithChester> eeepc-acpi-scripts: Depends: acpi-support-base but it is not installable
[14:20] <KeithChester> any ideas?
[14:20] <padhu> gufw*
[14:21] <troubled> padhu: shorewall isnt a gui btw. but it pwns :)
[14:22] <padhu> oh, then how can i use it?
[14:23] <Gup> Guys, I'm trying to track down a memory leak... any good tools about? It would be cool to plot the mem usage of the individual process from ps on a graph over time or something?
[14:23] <Gup> I've tried comparing screen shots of top or activity monitor throughout the week, but everything just seems to be slowly increasing!
[14:23] <padhu> troubled:  ^^^
[14:23] <spiky> padhu: gufw works well
[14:23] <troubled> padhu: shorewall? its a bunch of config files in /etc/shorewall that you "fill in the blanks"
[14:23] <ubuntu-usr> froschi, thx. i wonder is port forwarding here is unnecessary
[14:23] <ikonia> Gup: what do you think is leaking ?
[14:23] <troubled> padhu: shorewall is more of a rather advanced firewall though
[14:24] <Gup> ikonia, thats the problem, i have no idea!
[14:24] <padhu> troubled: give me an link for learn it
[14:24] <ikonia> Gup: why do you think something is leaking then ?
[14:24] <troubled> padhu: http://sohrewall.net/
[14:24] <PS> hello.
[14:25] <troubled> padhu: iirc, ubuntu ships with 4.2, so pick the docs accordingly when on that site
[14:25] <AloneWolfCRO> Heloo! I have a q? How that i remove nautilus elementary?
[14:26] <padhu> Sure, troubled. Thank you
[14:26] <ubuntu-usr> froschi, where rsync daemon should be run? on ssh server or on my mobile?
[14:26] <ikonia> AloneWolfCRO: open the package manager, search for the package, click remove
[14:26] <troubled> padhu: also, to have a better shorewall experience, I removed/disabled the package for the default ubuntu network that gives each user the option for specifying the networking info. I forget the package name though. basically, I reverted back to a "traditional" networking environment where the eth is brought up during start and stays up
[14:27] <padhu> troubled: oh
[14:27] <AloneWolfCRO> ok i will try
[14:28] <angelitusss> Hi everyone! I wonder if any has solved the flickering screen issue? I'm having that problem with ATI radeon 1200x and Intel based video cards.
[14:28] <troubled> padhu: also, you probably want shorewall-perl instead of plain shorewall, that installs a perl version of the compiler instead of a bash/sh based compiler. there are limits that probably will affect both, but perl tends to be the more powerful one
[14:28] <Jec> anybody use ibus ?
[14:29] <troubled> padhu: an example: the shell shorewall can do firewalling on a bridge, but the perl version cant yet. (not likely to affect you). Where as the perl version can auto detect broadcast address of an interface but the shell version cant, etc.
[14:29] <ikonia> Jec: just ask your question
[14:29] <AloneWolfCRO> ikonia: i can't see nautilus elementary on synaptic :S
[14:29] <padhu> troubled: that's good idea. any GUI tar ball?
[14:30] <ikonia> AloneWolfCRO: there doesn't appear to be a  nautilus elementary package in the ubuntu repos
[14:30] <ikonia> AloneWolfCRO: how did you install it ?
[14:31] <troubled> padhu: as for the package to remove, do you know that little applet ubuntu gives you to control networking? remove that package. As for GUI, no, its just "always on" so to speak. just apt-get install shorewall-perl shorewall-doc, and you should be good to go. Its safe to install too as it wont run until you enabled it in /etc/default/shorewall
[14:31] <AloneWolfCRO> i thik via ubuntu tweak
[14:31] <ikonia> AloneWolfCRO: then we don't support it here
[14:31] <AloneWolfCRO> I know :S
[14:31] <ikonia> AloneWolfCRO: then why are you asking ?
[14:32] <AloneWolfCRO> i just thing that you will still help me
[14:32] <ikonia> AloneWolfCRO: I have no idea how ubuntu-tweak installs packages for you, you'll need to speak to the ubuntu-tweak people to find out how it installs
[14:32] <terry> Whats PDTV?
[14:32] <Gup> ikonia, i have to reboot once every few weeks, when i do mem usage is about 20% with loads of free or cached, but used slowly creeps up until its left no room for cached, things start to swap and everything grinds to a halt, here's my munin memory graph http://imagebin.ca/view/wuyxlS.html
[14:32] <terry> Whats PDTV?
[14:32] <AloneWolfCRO> ok thnx
[14:32] <terry> Whats PDTV?
[14:33] <sam__> hi
[14:33] <froschi> ubuntu-usr: if you can login from putty, you don't need port forwarding in your setup. then you don't need it for filetransfer either. rsync daemon *if* you need it should be run on server. but you shouldn't need it for basic usage (only for advanced user managment or so)
[14:33] <ikonia> Gup: simplest thing to do is, boot your box, leave it running with nothing additional open, see how that responds, that will rule out generic services/applications
[14:33] <cloud_xff7> xD
[14:33] <cloud_xff7> hello
[14:33] <angelitusss> Hi! Anyone solve the flickering issue? (Ubuntu 10.04 -  ATI or Intel)
[14:34] <cloud_xff7> any girl here?
[14:34] <cloud_xff7> :D
[14:34] <troubled> cloud_xff7: ?
[14:34] <ikonia> cloud_xff7: this is a support channel only, please keep to that topic
[14:34] <cloud_xff7> ok
[14:34] <cloud_xff7> calm friend
[14:34] <troubled> O_o
[14:35] <cloud_xff7> ubuntu spanish_
[14:35] <ikonia> !es | cloud_xff7
 thank you friend :D
[14:35] <angelitusss> Hi guys
[14:36] <Gup> ikonia, could be a bit inconvenient.. it runs all sorts of stuff like mail server and backup stuff i wouldnt want to be down for any period of time, not to mention i need to use it to work on!
[14:36] <angelitusss> I moved all the Win machines to Ubuntu. But now I have half of them flickering, anyone solve this?
[14:37] <angelitusss> I mean, at my office
[14:37] <ikonia> Gup: so you're going to have to use tools like top to see where your resources are going,
[14:37] <sam__> having problems with etting my windows effect when i enable my nvidia card it resets my resolution to 640x480, i ried a few different thing then got the mesage 90.7 kh/84.6khz frequency out of range please try a diff resolution, since then i had to reinstall pclinux because it wont loead into ubuntu
[14:37] <angelitusss> We're very happy, but the flickering in 10.04 could be annoying...
[14:37] <XDS_> "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc2,        missing codepage or helper program, or other error        (aren't you trying to mount an extended partition,        instead of some logical partition inside?)        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try        dmesg | tail  or so "
[14:38] <XDS_> Nothing wrong with the disk
[14:38] <padhu> troubled: ok, i am going to try
[14:38] <ubuntu-usr> i made usb disk with ubuntu but i would like to add ghost 4 linux to my usb drive. how to do that?
[14:38] <DarsVaeda> hi, i could need some help troubleshooting my network connection
[14:38] <troubled> padhu: np, gl!
[14:38] <erUSUL> !persistent
[14:38] <amaurea> Hi! I'm trying to mount my mobile phone as a mass storage device. It supports this, but when I attach it, it does not automatically appear in /media. Is it possible to make the computer rescan for devices to mount there? Or how could I mount it manually?
[14:39] <oaf> ubuntu-usr: do you have ghost for linux?
[14:39] <DarsVaeda> i have no connection to my router, ifconfig says that my inet addr is <IP_ADDRESS> that makes me wonder
[14:39] <DarsVaeda> my router works, i'm writing from my notebook now
[14:39] <ubuntu-usr> oaf, i'll download it soon
[14:39] <troubled> padhu: if you get stuck and firewall yourself offline, just remember to do "shorewall clear" in a shell as root. that will open your firewall up so to speak. "shorewall stop" actually blocks everything in or out
[14:39] <froschi> ubuntu-usr: mmhh... about rsync and port forwarding i take everything i said back. according to the docs, it's kinda confused, and for some reason you seem to need the daemon...
[14:40] <erUSUL> DarsVaeda: <IP_ADDRESS> is the lo adrress. what is the ip for eth0 or wlan0 ?
[14:40] <DarsVaeda> ahh ok, there is no eth0
[14:40] <DarsVaeda> at least when i do "sudo ifconfig"
[14:40] <erUSUL> DarsVaeda: what NIC card do you have on the machine?
[14:40] <ubuntu-usr> froschi, you mean deamon at server side
[14:41] <DarsVaeda> its onboad, worked yesterday and like 2 years before
[14:41] <DarsVaeda> onboard
[14:41] <erUSUL> DarsVaeda: lspci | grep -i net
[14:41] <oaf> ubuntu-usr: how to use ghost 4 linux?
[14:41] <DarsVaeda> realtek RTL8101E
[14:42] <erUSUL> DarsVaeda: try « sudo modprobe r8169 »
[14:42] <Gup> ok ikonia, i'll keep comparing screen shots over time, but as i say, it looks like everything slowly increases its mem usage. i'll upload them over the next few days if i still cant figure it out! cheers :)
[14:42] <DarsVaeda> what should that do erusul?
[14:42] <erUSUL> DarsVaeda: dod eth0 come up ?
[14:42] <DarsVaeda> nope
[14:42] <erUSUL> did*
[14:42] <ubuntu-usr> oaf, see at http://redkrieg.com/2007/03/19/ghost-4-linux-complete-guide-to-imaging/
[14:43] <DarsVaeda> the light is on at the cards input
[14:43] <oaf> ubuntu-usr: thanks
[14:43] <DarsVaeda> can i check if ubunt can access the card?
[14:43] <DarsVaeda> like hardware-manager in windows
[14:43] <erUSUL> DarsVaeda: « sudo modprobe -r r8169 && sudo modprobe r8169 »
[14:43] <erUSUL> DarsVaeda: then « dmesg | tail -n20 » paste the output
[14:43] <blue112> Hi here =)
[14:44] <Benkinooby> is 79.179.5XX.XXX a LAN ip?
[14:44] <troubled> Benkinooby: you mean rfc1918? no
[14:44] <DarsVaeda> i can not paste the output
[14:44] <DarsVaeda> but there is an eth0: entry
[14:45] <erUSUL> DarsVaeda: do you see any obvilous error ?
[14:45] <DarsVaeda> eth0: RTL8102e
[14:45] <padhu>  troubled: sure
[14:45] <DarsVaeda> no errors
[14:45] <erUSUL> DarsVaeda: do « ifconfig » does eth0 appears now ?
[14:45] <sam__> any 1 know what caouse the" 90.7khz/84.6khz frequency out of range please try another resolution" error it prevents me from loading ubuntu
[14:45] <DarsVaeda> no
[14:45] <Benkinooby> troubled:s o i sould be able to ssh to it via internet?
[14:45] <froschi> ubuntu-usr: yeah, or on mobile... both options seem to work according to the docs... i only don't see any encryption at all there or ssh protocol though... this is strange...
[14:46] <DarsVaeda> the only thing in dmesg is that it says PCI INT A disabled
[14:46] <troubled> Benkinooby: well, its an internet routable ip range, if thats what you are asking. ie: its not 192.168.X.X, 172.16.X.X or 10.X.X.X
[14:46] <DarsVaeda> but a bit beneath says PCI INT A -> GSI 17 ...
[14:46] <erUSUL> DarsVaeda: check « ifconfig » does it have a eth0 now ?
[14:46] <ilovefairuz> !hi | blue112
[14:46] <Benkinooby> troubled: ah ok, thx. i was not sure about the rang of LAN ips
[14:47] <blue112> :D
[14:47] <DarsVaeda> no just local
[14:47] <wildc4rd> afternoon all
[14:47] <erUSUL> DarsVaeda: :(
[14:47] <troubled> Benkinooby: np
[14:47] <troubled> Benkinooby: those are coverered in RFC1918 specifically btw, google it for coffee reading :)

[14:48] <adalal> i was wondering if there is a way to get multiple output streams from one webcam
[14:48] <fragg> hello
[14:49] <DarsVaeda> can i somehow reinstall all networking? like on the installation
[14:51] <amaurea> ilovefairuz: Ok, I have done that, and something did happen when I plugged it in. here is a pastebin of it: http://pastebin.com/jFAJN9e6
[14:52] <themusicgod1> Gup: apparently it can be handy to trace calls to mmap
[14:52] <themusicgod1>  this is an example, but I haven't had a chance to try it yet<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:53] <themusicgod1> ideally if you could do the same for freeing the memory you could make sur ethat they always come in pairs
[14:53] <themusicgod1> also, valgrind
[14:54] <themusicgod1> or did you mean something simpler than those two?
[14:54] <DarsVaeda> @erUSUL: in the Network Tools i can see a eth0 device, it also has the correct hardware address ... may this give a hint?
[14:55] <ilovefairuz> amaurea: ls /dev/sdb* ?
[14:56] <amaurea> ilovefairuz: does not exist
[14:56] <amaurea> that is where I looked first
[14:56] <ilovefairuz> amaurea: what's the phone model? and pastebininit /var/log/messages
[14:57] <DarsVaeda> i can also do "ifconfig eth0" that brings up my card
[14:57] <amaurea> ilovefairuz: wait, what exactly do you want me to pastebin? The phone model?
[14:57] <amaurea> ilovefairuz: or the whole of /var/local/messages?
[14:57] <DarsVaeda> but it has no ip address
[14:58] <ilovefairuz> amaurea: yes the whole file, and write your phone model here
[14:59] <troubled> ilovefairuz: you mean pastebinit yes? amaurea: you mean /var/log/messages, yes?
[14:59] <amaurea> troubled: yes
[15:00] <tyler51c> does anyone here use seamonkey
[15:00] <DarsVaeda> i need some troubleshooting with my ethernet connection, my router works but still there is no internet connection
[15:00] <adalal> i was wondering if there is a way to get multiple output streams from one webcam
[15:00] <moritz__> hi, i've got an ubuntu derivative installed on my aspire one 532h netbook and the touchpad doesn't work. xorg log doesn't have any errors in it and even says it loaded the touchpad drivers. any ideas?
[15:00] <swordfish> can opera installed in ubuntu?
[15:00] <DarsVaeda> yes
[15:01] <coz_> moritz__,  which derivitive is this?
[15:01] <coz_> derivative rather
[15:01] <swordfish> opera installation in ubuntu  please tell me the process
[15:02] <coz_> moritz__,  which derivative of ubuntu is this  ??
[15:02] <moritz__> mint. already asked in their channel, no response yet and i maybe it's non-mint-specific known problem?
[15:02] <swordfish> i need the process of opera installation in ubuntu
[15:02] <swordfish> 10.04
[15:02] <moritz__> swordfish: go to opera.com and download the ubuntu package. :)
[15:02] <swordfish> is .deb
[15:03] <amaurea> ilovefairuz: The phone model is a sony ericsson w980, I think (can't see it right now, as the phone functions are available during a mass storage session). I'm not sure how to pastebin a whole file effectively, so I uploaded it somewhere else: http://folk.uio.no/sigurdkn/messages
[15:03] <uma_> hi
[15:03] <swordfish> hi
[15:03] <swordfish> uma_
[15:03] <moritz__> coz_: any ideas? :)
[15:03] <amaurea> ilovefairuz: note, that file contains several attempts
[15:04] <coz_> moritz__,   not off hand ...no...last time I tried mint it had issues the refular ubuntu did not...
[15:04] <xguru> anyone have ati drivers working in lucid?  I have the following error.  http://www.pastie.org/
[15:05] <oliver_> Is it possible to record the screen with a ati card? It laggs a lot
[15:05] <moritz__> coz_: i fear that the regular ubuntu is too bloated to be able to work on a 1gb ram netbook. :/
[15:06] <troubled> oliver_: tried something like gtkrecordmydesktop or similar?
[15:06] <coz_> moritz__,   well i switched to Edubuntu for that reason...works much faster than any of the others
[15:06] <marienz> moritz__: I run vanilla ubuntu on an ancient laptop with 1280MB of ram, works sufficiently well for my needs
[15:06] <marienz> moritz__: does boot and resume a bit slowly, but once it's up it works for me.
[15:07] <marienz> but I guess I'm pretty patient :)
[15:07] <oliver_> troubled: I have tried gtkrecordmydesktop with default settings... i cannot record with compiz on and without compiz it's work but not flawless
[15:07] <payam> test of Smuxi IRC!

[15:07] <moritz__> marienz: i'd have to have 4+ apps at the same time for work, which is itself a problem with 1gb of ram with these apps :(
[15:08] <marienz> moritz__: ahh, I see.
[15:08] <amaurea> oliver_: have you tried ffmpeg? I've heard that described as the only decent screen capture on linux
[15:08] <marienz> moritz__: yeah, I usually just run a browser, an editor, and one or more terms.
[15:08] <moritz__> So, does anyone else have an idea why my touchpad isn't working? :/

[15:10] <glich> quick question:what format to use on a pendrive:ext2,ext3,ext4,ntfs or reiserfs?

[15:16] <moritz__> troubled: what format should the "device" be given to xsetpointer? neither the number nor the name from "xsetpointer -l" work. it says "Extended device 12 not found"
[15:17] <amaurea> oliver_: having trouble finding the page. still looking, but you might want to search for it yourself too
[15:17] <troubled> moritz__: no clue. i was wondering that myself. might be expecting a /dev/XXXXX name for all I know
[15:18] <ben72> moshisushi, I see no reason why they should if you don't remove them in fdisk

[15:22] <ikonia> ryan_languagelab: why did you run grub-install ?
[15:22] <troubled> moritz__: http://www.yolinux.com/HOWTO/XFree86-Touch-Screen-HOWTO.html seems to have some info that might help. search the page for "xsetpointer"
[15:23] <ryan_languagelab> ikonia, I had an old copy of Ubuntu, Windows 7, and Xubuntu. The old Ubuntu ran grub and every time the kernel was updated I had to manually update its menu.lst
[15:23] <ikonia> ryan_languagelab: ok, so there is still no need to run grub-install
[15:24] <ryan_languagelab> ikonia, how can I go about fixing it even though I did run it?
[15:24] <ikonia> ryan_languagelab: why did you really run it ?

[15:25] <madrid> Hi , I read this, and for this reason jaunty is better than lucid??, for me lucid is more heavy :
[15:25] <madrid> This distro part of the fantastic distro Ubuntu 9.04 "Jaunty Jackalope", which is considered by the great community Ubunteros one of the best versions of Ubuntu, if not the best, in terms of quality and performance.
[15:25] <ilovefairuz> amaurea: there's a bug report here, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/275633 however don't try the workaround as it's reported to mess things up, try insall pysdm and see if it can recognize the phone
[15:25] <ikonia> ryan_languagelab: so you have two menu.lst files, one in /boot on xubuntu on in /boot on ubuntu ?
[15:25] <ryan_languagelab> yea
[15:25] <ikonia> madrid: if you start this again, you will be removed
[15:25] <moritz__> troubled: thanks a lot. looking into is :)
[15:25] <ikonia> madrid: this is your only warning
[15:26] <ben72> should it be a problem using multiple devices that utilizes the same driver? it works sometimes and sometimes not when I have two devices using ftdi_sio
[15:26] <amaurea> ilovefairuz: thank you. I'll read thad and try pysdm
[15:26] <ikonia> ryan_languagelab: my suggestion would be to use a shared /boot partition for the pair of them, manualy put the windows entry back into the shared menu.lst and make sure the timeout option is set above 2 seconds so you can see the menu
[15:27] <capB> hi, I had windows installed and then installed ubuntu alongside it. Now, on loading, I get the windows boot screen which lets me choose ubuntu, and then the GRUB screen after I select ubuntu. How do I remove windows entirely and make sure the boot loader doesn't mess things up?
[15:27] <ryan_languagelab> ikonia, ok the thing is I'm not really sure what partition I should be doing this on
[15:27] <ikonia> ryan_languagelab: pick either the ubuntu or xubuntu one, but then make sure both ubuntu and xubuntu's fstab uses the same partition as boot
[15:28] <wizard_> anyone no of a program that will take my protect songs from Itunes and turn them into mp3 so I can add and play in XBMC ?
[15:28] <ikonia> ryan_languagelab: you'll then need to re-apply grub to point at that partition
[15:28] <ryan_languagelab> ikonia, ok thanks. I will work on it a bit
[15:28] <ilovefairuz> capB: did you install using Wubi, the windows-based ubuntu installer  or on a separate partition ?
[15:28] <ikonia> ryan_languagelab: shout if you are struggling
[15:29] <capB> ilovefairuz, I installed using wubi
[15:29] <ikonia> capB: ubuntu is now based on your windows file system, so you can't remove it
[15:29] <ikonia> capB: you'll need to do a clean install on another partition for a proper seperate ubuntu install
[15:29] <ryan_languagelab> ikonia, ok lol I don't really know what I am doing. My first OS was windows, it is on /dev/sda3 (boot flag set). The ubuntu distro (9.04, don'

[15:30] <dany> hi all
[15:30] <dany> do you know if is there a way to get the name of the process that creates a file?
[15:30] <ikonia> madrid: it's not, this is your final warning
[15:30] <feltham83> HI ALL
[15:30] <ZykoticK9> capB, what ikonia is saying above basically is WUBI does not create a "stand-alone" type install, with WUBI you Ubuntu relies on windows (which is why i view it as a poor choice)
[15:30] <dairyman> does anyone know how i can fixthis? i cant access nautilus
[15:30] <ikonia> madrid: if you start this behaviour again, you will be removed
[15:30] <ryan_languagelab> ikonia, I only want to boot Xubuntu
[15:30] <ikonia> ryan_languagelab: ok, so remove your ubuntu partition
[15:30] <ilovefairuz> dany: no, but if the process still has it open, try lsof
[15:30] <ikonia> ryan_languagelab: and just use that one OS partition (xubuntu) to control it
[15:30] <dany> ilovefairuz:  lsof namefile?
[15:31] <feltham83> I have a problem, i can't login to my system using GNOME i can only do it using FAILSAFE GNOME. Anyone help?
[15:31] <ilovefairuz> dany: lsof | grep filename
[15:31] <troubled> dany: not unless its in use or it logged the fact to my knowledge (short of having a security auditing system that is setup to record such a thing). lsof might help
[15:31] <madrid> ikonia ok , not more censure please
[15:31] <capB> ikonia: wow, that is unexpected. Can I at least get rid of the windows boot screen.
[15:31] <ikonia> madrid: yes, that is the fact
[15:31] <ikonia> capB: no
[15:31] <dany> ok
[15:31] <dany> thank you :) I'm gonna try it

[15:34] <ikonia> wizard_: this isn't up for debate, if you don't like apples terms, talk to them or don't use it
[15:34] <troubled> dany: things like grsecurity or selinux might be configurable to audit such events though, but thats some serious time investment to setup stuff like that
[15:34] <dany> troubled: got it.. :(

[15:36] <giorgiofauzia> ciao
[15:36] <ikonia> suprengr: installing grub on a partition won't work, unless your board supports booting from a partition rather than the mbr

[15:49] <airtonix> using virtualbox, i'm trying to hae one vbox guest (using ubuntu 10.04) act as a clonezilla-drbl server via multicast, and another vbox guest (using ubuntu 9.10) as the client to save disks from and restore to. I can get the client to pxeboot and save a disk image... but getting it to pxeboot to restore an image fails with it hanging after the PXE menu screen.
[15:49] <troubled> dany: worst case, that one liner with the "while true...." loop, with a sleep of .1 or something crazy low should catch it eventually. just pipe it out to something like "tee" and have it logged so you can search the massive amount of output (or use grep to filter empty lines etc)

[16:00] <BluesKaj> m3r1ll, lets keep the questions in the chat so other knowledgeable can help as well
[16:01] <BluesKaj> ppl
[16:01] <cheater99> how would i change this bash line? [ -r $HOME/my.cnf ]    currently it fails if $HOME/my.cnf doesn't exist, but i would like it to fail only when that file OR /usr/etc/my.cnf don't exist
[16:02] <troubled> cheater99: || ?
[16:02] <cheater99> not sure what the syntax would be exactly
[16:02] <jrib> cheater99: wait, why are you doing this?
[16:02] <troubled> cheater99: ie: [ -r $file1 || -r $file2 ]
[16:02] <diogo_79> no one??'
[16:03] <troubled> cheater99: might also be [ -r .... ] || [ -r ....], not 100%
[16:03] <glaucous> troubled, is this the same thing? [ -r $file1 ] || [ -r $file2 ] ?
[16:03] <glaucous> troubled, yeah, what I thought, that's what I used

[16:03] <BluesKaj> m3r1ll, sorry I don't know , backtrack is well known to be problematic in more ways then just grub
[16:04] <cheater99> i've found it
[16:04] <IdleOne> m3r1ll: perhaps you can try asking in #backtrack-linux
[16:04] <cheater99> it is: [ -r $HOME/my.cnf -o /usr/etc/my.cnf ]
[16:04] <troubled> cool
[16:04] <troubled> im guessing -o = ||
[16:05] <cheater99> || does not work
[16:05] <cheater99> invalid syntax, missing ']'
[16:06] <m3r1ll>  basicly i have Ubuntu installed on a windows7 machine everything is fine with that. I also installed BackTrack, wich installed grub on my machine. Now i get this retarded grub boot with backtrack and windows, if i select windows it comes to the second boot screen and lists Ubuntu, BackTrack, and windows. Is there a way I can get rid of the first boot loader and just use the one Ubuntu installed?
 someone told me to reinstall Ubuntus boot loader to sdX where x is my drive letter. wich brings me to the question of i have sda1 stuff i cant change, sda2 mbr, sda3 windows, sda5 linux. where to i reinstall the bootloader from Ubuntu sda2 ???
[16:07] <borbasjulia> how to check and how to set local ip?
[16:07] <IdleOne> !grub2 | m3r1ll
[16:07] <IdleOne> m3r1ll: see the section on recovering grub
[16:07] <jrib> cheater99: #bash
[16:07] <wiesshund> m3r1ll<<  what is on sda1?
[16:07] <cheater99> it's ok, the problem's solved :)

[16:08] <ubuntu-usr> i have installed ubuntu on usb. i downloaded antoher linux distro and i ant to put it to stick in another folder. now is tehe question: what i should write in syslinux/menu.cfg to run menu from another distro? simply words i wan't to load another distro directly, i want to load it's menu
[16:09] <troubled> cheater99: seems that if you did it the way i was thinking you needed: if ( [ -f .... ] || [ -f .... ]); then ....; fi
[16:09] <troubled> cheater99: eg: if ([ -f /etc/mysql/my ] || [ -f /etc/mysql/my.cnf ]); then echo "Yes"; else echo "No";fi
[16:09] <madrid> now I have only one problem with jaunty, flash player is not accepted at all sites with Linux, in most places ,yes, but not as much as  with windows
[16:09] <troubled> cheater99: although your way definetly seems like the better solution :)
[16:09] <cheater99> nope, it wasn't used with if/fi, it was just used to fail the script if the file isn't found
[16:09] <wiesshund> ubuntu-usr>>  your just booting from USB?
[16:10] <ubuntu-usr> wiesshund, yes
[16:10] <troubled> cheater99: still, anything between the ()'s would return a true or false result
[16:10] <cheater99> mhm
[16:10] <jasonmchristos> i told a program to email alert myuser@localhost but when i check "mail" from command nothing is there
[16:10] <troubled> cheater99: run that line i pasted for proof of the syntax
[16:11] <wiesshund> ubuntu-usr>>  depending on how you set it up, you dont need to write anything
[16:11] <karim_> hi
[16:11] <ubuntu-usr> wiesshund, i used standart ubuntu usb maker

[16:13] <Turbolinux> Hello everyone. I am looking an easy solution for activating built-in 3G mobile modem on my Toshiba NB200 internet based notebook computer. Can I activate my mobile modem without configuring it in advanced way? Thank you for your help.
[16:13] <ubuntu-usr> wiretapped, ubuntu from usb works but after i add another distro to another folder there is need to add some lines in syslinux/menu.cfg
[16:14] <jasonmchristos> troubled: mailq returns blank
[16:14] <wiesshund> ubuntu-usr>>  oh your sticking multiples on 1 flashdrive? i misread then
[16:14] <mobal> Turbolinux: what is the type of the 3g modem?
[16:15] <troubled> jasonmchristos: well, nothing in the queue then. so if mail was sent, it was delivered somewhere. the mail logs should hopefully to you to whom (as per the /etc/aliases file most likely)
[16:15] <Turbolinux> Mobal: It's an integrated type mobile modem.
[16:15] <jasonmchristos> troubled: all blank
[16:15] <troubled> jasonmchristos: when you ran mailq, did it say "Mail queue is empty"?
[16:15] <mobal> i do
[16:15] <ruben23> hi guys any idea on how to set a kick start install of ENU- netbook edition of ubuntu..?

[16:15] <mobal> Turbolinux: try type lsusb and find it
[16:16] <jasonmchristos> ive sent mail but never received it

[16:17] <ruben23> hi guys any idea on how to set a kick start install of ENU- netbook edition of ubuntu..?
[16:17] <ruben23> are there channels for Ubuntu netbook edition..?
[16:17] <microlith> TLF: not usually, you can try forcing it but bad things may happen
[16:17] <troubled> jasonmchristos: k, means it returned okay (error level 0), but that doesn't always mean much :) take a look in the /var/log/mail.* files for today. try tail -f one of them and send a test mail to yourself or root etc
[16:18] <jasonmchristos> troubled: how do i send a test mail as root?
[16:18] <xangua> ruben23: yes, this

[16:19] <Turbolinux> Mobal: I wrote my device brand and model as a previous message.
[16:19] <ruben23> any idea..? on creating a kick start install for ENU..?
[16:19] <troubled> jasonmchristos: well, dont need to send as root. just run something like "mail root", hit enter, type the subjetc, then type some garble and hit "." on a line by itself iirc to end it
[16:19] <mobal> Turbolinux: i read
[16:19] <xangua> ruben23: no idea
[16:19] <TLF> thanks, microlith
[16:19] <mobal> Turbolinux: google said it is an erricsson model. and i found this link. Try this: http://redmonk.com/sogrady/2008/12/07/how-to-use-an-att-ericsson-f3507g-card-on-ubuntu-intrepid/
[16:20] <troubled> jasonmchristos: just hit enter on the "CC:" field, then it will be sent. a good test  is to send email to the current username
[16:20] <jasonmchristos> i dont want to receive mail as root i want to get mail to my user though
[16:20] <jasonmchristos> the root account is locked
[16:20] <troubled> jasonmchristos: sure, but sure you want to verify the email system is working yes?
[16:20] <jasonmchristos> yes, i read somwhere i have to have an email sent so it will setup the local maildir
[16:21] <troubled> jasonmchristos: so you should be able to do "mail $USER<enter>" and send yourself an email. if that doesn't work, your MTA system is broken

[16:28] <bihari> can any one plzz help me !
[16:28] <NewtoLinux> is there a site or a manual that has a table of correlated command that are equivalent in windows
[16:28] <troubled> kane77: perhaps search for "id3" in the apt-cache for an editor?
[16:28] <jasonmchristos> how do i get ubentu to setp my home directory mail dir for my user?
[16:28] <troubled> kane77: rythmbox might be able to, but im not sure if you are looking for something manual or automated from CLI, sorry
[16:29] <NewtoLinux> troubled: is there a site or a manual that has a table of correlated command that are equivalent in windows
[16:29] <senthil_> if you want a Graphical App. "hardinfo" will be useful
[16:29] <troubled> jasonmchristos: usually maildir or makemaildir or something, lemmie look
[16:29] <bihari> can any one help me plzzz?
[16:30] <senthil_> bihari: What samsung mobile model you have?
[16:30] <troubled> jasonmchristos: quick search shows the program in a diff package. im guessing postfix auto makes the dir for you on first mail

[16:30] <cablop> if i set an OpenVPN server, must i set it as client of itself to make it available for all other systems?
[16:31] <troubled> jasonmchristos: ah, exim4 might not do it automagically
[16:31] <bihari> SGH-b520
[16:32] <troubled> jasonmchristos: this is a ubuntu system or debian?
[16:32] <jasonmchristos> ubuntu
[16:32] <troubled> jasonmchristos: you setup exim4 manually?
[16:32] <bihari> sethil its SGH-B520 samsung mobile set and i cant able to connect it  in my ubuntu
[16:32] <troubled> or installed it on your own I mean
[16:32] <jasonmchristos> troubled: used dpkg script
[16:32] <troubled> oh joy heh
[16:33] <Turbolinux> Mobal: Can you help me? Thank you.
[16:33] <troubled> jasonmchristos: well, maildrpo package in ubuntu has the maildirmake script with it, which is a procmail replacement by the looks of it. guess you could try install that
[16:35] <troubled> jasonmchristos: exim4 should be able to autocreate the maildir in the configured location though. not sure why yours wouldn't be unless the permissions are off or something. Why are you trying to manually make the dir, did any of the log files give you a hint in this direction, or is it just a guess?

[16:35] <bihari> can any one plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz help me
[16:35] <troubled> jasonmchristos: also, if its exim4 instead of postfix, i think the mail logs go in /var/log/exim/mainlog or something
[16:35] <jasonmchristos> troubled: i dont get why i even need exim for local mail
[16:35] <troubled> NewtoLinux: perhaps System menu -> Preferences -> About me?
[16:35] <magicianlord> i wonder if i should uninstall the x applications and all and stick to console
[16:36] <magicianlord> it would give a more pure feeling
[16:36] <jasonmchristos> troubled: i thought exim was just for sending mail external
[16:36] <NewtoLinux> troubled: but i would like to change the name of the user
[16:36] <troubled> jasonmchristos: and locally. although you might be able to try something like procmail only instead of a full daemon, not sure, never tried
[16:37] <troubled> NewtoLinux: vipw? do you want to change the username or the full name in the GEcos field?
[16:37] <NewtoLinux> i changed the logon name but that only shows up at the logon prompt

[16:38] <pakair> NewtoLinux, you should have System|Admin|Users and Groups. Use that app to modify user info.
[16:38] <troubled> jasonmchristos: if anything, you can probably disable the daemon for just local delivery though. but the system needs some app in place to call for sending mail and delivering to the correct path
[16:38] <jasonmchristos> troubled: how would you personally tell a command to run at boot that needs sudo?

[16:40] <capB> hi, I used unetbootin to make a USB bootable ubuntu, but when I reboot my pc tells me there is no available USB boot options
[16:40] <Turbolinux> Mobal: Can you say how must I copy the codes to the file?
[16:41] <troubled> jasonmchristos: well, I know on debian at least that mail likes to go to the spool dir in mbox format. so if your mail app was setup to use maildir, you wouldnt "see" the email unless it new to use mbox etc
[16:41] <pakair> NewtoLinux, logout and login again. It should refresh the user at the top right of the screen

[16:43] <ManDay> Guys, I think I've made a HORRIFYING discovery: That is, every time you buy a copy of Windows you give a lot of money to Microsoft and therefore a lot of money to Bill Gates - and Bill gates donates a lot of money to charity, So every time you download Ubuntu you kill an African Child!
[16:43] <troubled> bihari: I don't even know how that connects, let alone how to help you. so I wouldnt say its simple :)

[16:44] <bihari> well when i by this set i got 1 cd which has  .exe file to install  but ubuntu doesnot support .exe file

[16:44] <troubled> bihari: what are you trying to do anyways, teather internet through a phone or something?
[16:44] <magicianlord> ManDay: he gives it to a charity that wastes the money
[16:45] <ManDay> xangua: I know, I can hardly live with that guilt either...
[16:45] <Dr_Willis> bihari:  you use wine to install .exe's if yopu are lucky. However.. running an exe from a cd by double clicking on it. dosent work last ic hecked. use teh command line.
[16:45] <bihari> manday thats wrong !
[16:45] <magicianlord> donations are never used efficiently
[16:45] <erUSUL> ManDay: download ubuntu send *all* the money you have to a charity org. you do not need MS or bill gates as intermediaries

[16:47] <cory_cowgill> erUSUL - OK... let me try
[16:47] <pakair> iterative, now, take at look at /etc/init.d/ there should be a networking script which brings up your devices. Run the script (/etc/init.d/networking), then grep dmesg for errors
[16:47] <Dr_Willis> EruditeOgre:  you could unload the module it uses.. but On my laptop - it does turn off the webcam unless its in use.. so im not sure yours dosent
[16:48] <asrj> hai
[16:48] <erUSUL> iterative: "lsmod | grep 8169" shows anything ?
[16:48] <asrj> minitube is not working in my ubuntu 10.04
[16:48] <^Jay2^> how can i backup all the softwares and updates that i have already in ubuntu so that the next install of my ubuntu i can just restore from there. ( dont suggest ghosting please )
[16:49] <bihari> is there any link like codepad? something for ubuntu?
[16:49] <iterative> erUSUL: nothing at all :/
[16:49] <terry> Whats PDTV?
[16:49] <Turbolinux> Friends can you say how to copy the codes in second step to the sysfs.conf file? The codes are in here: http://redmonk.com/sogrady/2008/12/07/how-to-use-an-att-ericsson-f3507g-card-on-ubuntu-intrepid/. Thank you for your help again.
[16:49] <asrj> I need minitube hel[
[16:49] <NewtoLinux> pakair: when i go into the user account i see one guest and one main account.. i changed the name but the underlying name is still the same and that is what is visible on top
[16:50] <EruditeOgre> Dr_Willis: Well, powertop is complaining about a usb device not being in powersave mode. I "think" it's the webcam. lsusb shows the webcam as powersave capable but not activated.
[16:50] <erUSUL> iterative: do  "sudo modprobe r8169" and after that check « ifconfig » do oyu see a eth0 device ?
[16:50] <NewtoLinux> pakair: could you check your to see what i mean
[16:50] <pakair> iterative, Atheros is the wireless, Realtek is the wired interface. Search the net if the Atheros card can be seen by Ubuntu
[16:50] <dainex> hola
[16:50] <ilovefairuz> !es | dainex
[16:51] <erUSUL> Turbolinux: the instructions are pretty clear ... to paste into nano try the middle button.
[16:51] <NewtoLinux> pakair: the logged on name that is visible is also the name of my home directory
[16:51] <wackyshut> hola everyone
[16:51] <erUSUL> Turbolinux: or you can use gedit if you prefer. « gksudo gedit /etc/sysfs.conf »
[16:51] <pakair> NewtoLinux, I have one user in my Users and Groups. I can modify the name, logout, login and it shows correctly.
[16:51] <cory_cowgill> erUSUL: Thanks.... That seems to have downloaded the drivers by disabling the source as cdrom.... weird though. I see that info on the CDROM....... Wonder why it doesn't work.
[16:51] <ilovefairuz> asrj: check minitube's developer blog
[16:51] <NewtoLinux> but i can't just change the name of the home directory because that causes a lot of problems
[16:51] <iterative> pakair: ran the networking script, which itself resulted in a "rejected send message"
[16:52] <terrylm> Hi all
[16:52] <ilovefairuz> !hi | terrylm
[16:52] <erUSUL> cory_cowgill: neither do i; but anyway i find not worth it to have it enabled ...
[16:52] <Turbolinux> erUSUL: I understand but what's the middle button? I didn't understand this.
[16:52] <terrylm> OK, thanks
[16:52] <erUSUL> Turbolinux: your mouse middle button
[16:52] <ubuntu-usr> how to run file vesamenu.c32 using syslinux?
[16:52] <iterative> if I do "sudo networking start" I still see "networking stop/waiting" :(
[16:52] <cory_cowgill> erUSUL: Yeah, CDROM will be static where web download will be more up to date. Thanks dude.
[16:52] <erUSUL> Turbolinux: unix is designed for a trhee button mouse
[16:53] <NewtoLinux> pakair: i changed the name in the users and groups but how is that going to change the name of my home directory
[16:53] <cmayo> my laptop doesn't seem to be charging, what can i check to see what the issue is?
[16:53] <erUSUL> iterative: does eth0 appears or not ?
[16:53] <pakair> NewtoLinux, you can rename the home dir
[16:53] <Turbolinux> ErUSUL: No I copied the codes under this file's ''Example'' section. I asked that is it right or is it wrong.
[16:53] <NewtoLinux> I did that
[16:53] <terrylm> New install of 10.04, kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[16:53] <NewtoLinux> but i couldn;'t even log on
[16:53] <ilovefairuz> cmayo: only with ubuntu or generally?
[16:53] <xangua> cmayo: #hardware ¿
[16:54] <cmayo> ilovefairuz: well, i only have ubuntu installed
[16:54] <rocket16> Hello all.
[16:54] <NewtoLinux> so i used the guest account to change back
[16:54] <iterative> erUSUL: no, I think this thing has issues --- I think I'm just going to reload it (I don't handle computer stress well)
[16:54] <bitplane_> Hi, downloading from a windows share is sloooooww. any tips on improving performance, or is it my router?
[16:54] <NewtoLinux> what i am saying is that my logon name is diff from what is showing up on the top
[16:54] <ikonia> bitplane_: are you accessing the windows computer over the internet ?
[16:54] <ilovefairuz> cmayo: are you using an acer? your battery may need replacement
[16:54] <terrylm> The root= line in grub had /dev/sda3 instead of UUID=..., so I tried UUID=... but that was the same result.
[16:54] <pakair> iterative, seem this is an error with dbus. Can you reboot your system?
[16:55] <cmayo> bitplane_: reduce resolution, reduce graphics
[16:55] <bitplane_> ikonia, no, just the network. over the internet would be faster
[16:55] <rocket16> Is there any decent alternative to OneNote yet? I really hate most MS products, but OneNote 2007 was truly great. I tried Basket, but it is for KDE, and I wish to have something in GNOME.
[16:55] <ikonia> bitplane_: ok - so why are you thinking your router is a problem ?
[16:55] <erUSUL> Turbolinux: well i'm in the same position as you. either yo trust the blog post or not ...
[16:55] <NewtoLinux> and i have logged out, and rebooted also
[16:55] <cory_cowgill> erSUL: Thanks for help. I have connected to my wireless network now. That was only issue I had while installing Ubuntu. Have a great day.
[16:55] <cmayo> ilovefairuz: no it's a toshiba... well, it's my girlfriends and the only way i can communicate with her this weekend while i'm gone, so i'm trying to fix it. hopefully it is just a glitch, i had her restart and see what happens
[16:55] <ikonia> bitplane_: is it slow for any other network activity over the lan ?
[16:55] <erUSUL> cory_cowgill: no problem
[16:55] <troubled> NewtoLinux: the name up there is your login name though, not your "full name"
[16:55] <asrj> hai to all
[16:55] <bitplane_> ikonia, I don't have any other network activity and I don't fancy installing server software to test it
[16:55] <iterative> pakair: sure, I'll reboot.  Another new development is when I reboot this laptop, it hangs at "Checking for running unattended-upgrades"
[16:55] <troubled> NewtoLinux: just wondering if you are expecting it to be properly spelled and punctuated like "Bob Smith"
[16:55] <iterative> pakair: it did that earlier and it's doing it again now
[16:56] <ilovefairuz> cmayo: did it start happening recently? dust could affect charging
[16:56] <NewtoLinux> troubled: that's my problem.. my loggin name is diff from what is visible on top
[16:56] <bitplane_> I do know that it's slower to download a file from the windows box than it is over the internet
[16:56] <ikonia> bitplane_: ping your windows machine, does it respond in a reasonable time
[16:56] <cmayo> ilovefairuz: yes, it just started... is there anything i can do?
[16:56] <NewtoLinux> troubled: no.. its a single word
[16:56] <Turbolinux> erUSUL: I trust but it doesn't tell the place for copying to the file. I want to know this because I don't want to do a mistake.
[16:56] <bitplane_> pings are tiny packets, smb is udp isn't it?
[16:56] <ilovefairuz> cmayo: clean dust, upgrade bios if newer version available or call support
[16:57] <troubled> NewtoLinux: the login manager I think displays the Full Name, not the login name, iirc
[16:57] <bitplane_> not ideal, but ~10ms ping time but latency isn't the issue here
[16:57] <pakair> NewtoLinux, you seem to do something wrong. First, create a user bob. It WILL create a /home/bob. Then change the name of bob to robert. The home dir does NOT change. You can manually rename /home/bob to /home/robert
[16:57] <troubled> id have to logout to verify that though. not exactly a screen I see often ;)
[16:57] <bitplane_> throughput is the problem
[16:57] <ikonia> bitplane_: ok, so why do you think this is an ubuntu issue if you know it's throughput ?
[16:57] <erUSUL> Turbolinux: it says; the file is /etc/sysfs.conf
[16:58] <bitplane_> ikonia, it was a question;  do other people see this problem, is throughput related to latency, are there changes I can make to increase speed?
[16:58] <thorns> How do I get the latest kernel in Lucid from Maverick for example?
[16:58] <ikonia> bitplane_: no-one else has this problem
[16:58] <pakair> iterative, somehow it does not see the Atheros. Search the Net, I dont have a quick answer, sorry.
[16:58] <ikonia> thorns: you can't
[16:58] <bitplane_> ikonia, do you use smb and get good speeds?
[16:58] <iterative> pakair: no worries, thanks a lot for your help!
[16:58] <ilovefairuz> bitplane_: mta ?
[16:58] <thorns> ikonia, hmm, no backports?
[16:58] <cmayo> what is a good itunes clone for linux?
[16:58] <ikonia> bitplane_: excellent speed
[16:58] <ikonia> thorns: no
[16:58] <Turbolinux> erUSUL: Yes but I don't know the specific place.
[16:58] <cmayo> rhythmbox or banshee?
[16:58] <xangua> cmayo: rhythmbox, banshee
[16:58] <erUSUL> cmayo: default Rhythmbox or banshee
[16:58] <ilovefairuz> cmayo: http://alternativesto.net
[16:58] <ikonia> bitplane_: I watch HD movies over it
[16:59] <senthil_> banshee..
[16:59] <Turbolinux> Is it right when I copy to under ''Examples'' area on this file?
[16:59] <NewtoLinux> pakair: i did that but when i tried to log back on it gave me 2 error messages and some authentication failure or something so i changed the home directory back using the guest account and things are back to normal
[16:59] <thorns> ikonia, any other third party solution to have the latest kernel release automatically installed in Ubuntu?
[16:59] <wackyshut> cmayo:prefer rhythmbox..
[16:59] <erUSUL> Turbolinux: the filenname tells you. directory /etc/ filename sysfs.conf
[16:59] <ikonia> thorns: no
[16:59] <bitplane_> I'm getting ~700k/sec which is fast enough to watch HD movies
[16:59] <feltham83> woop i managed to resolve my GNOME prob, switched visual effects on and off
[16:59] <bitplane_> it's over an hour to copy a dvd though
[16:59] <John--> I need some help, I accidently deleted my grub and ubuntu partition.
[17:00] <John--> And I burned a Ubuntu CD
[17:00] <John--> But it doesn't work correctly
[17:00] <John--> It only works in live mode
[17:00] <ilovefairuz> John--: boot livecd, and pastebin, fdisk -l
[17:00] <ikonia> John--: then you need to re-create a new partition and re-install ubuntu
[17:00] <bitplane_> John-- systemrestorecd.iso, see if you can recover the partition
[17:00] <Turbolinux> No no I want to know that is it right when I copy these codes under ''Examples'' area on this file.
[17:00] <pakair> NewtoLinux, if that's the case and you do have files under bob, first move them to /tmp, then delete user bob, create user robert and mv files from /tmp to /home/robert
[17:01] <NewtoLinux> no files this is a new installation.. my first
[17:01] <senthil_> Banshee got "banshee-extension-mirage" something similar to genius
[17:01] <John--> ilovefairuz: I did fdisk -l
[17:01] <erUSUL> Turbolinux: that is an absolute pathname.
[17:01] <ikonia> John--: you need to re-install ubuntu, which will also re-install grub for you
[17:01] <Bersam> hi all ... i have a wireless adaptor usb that installed and known by my ubuntu as default ... but i have a little problem :) when i made my connection and want to share internet over it ...
[17:01] <erUSUL> senthil_: hilarious results with mirage .... ( is uspect that is the same with genious )
[17:01] <ikonia> !ics | Bersam
[17:01] <Bersam> but new connection don't showen in my ipodtouch
[17:01] <pakair> NewtoLinux, so create users, delete users and see the changes. Linux is fun.
[17:01] <John--> ikonia: The thing is, my ubuntu cd doesn't work properly.
[17:02] <ikonia> John--: get another one
[17:02] <ilovefairuz> !pastebin | John--
[17:02] <terrylm> john--:  Years ago I mistakenly overwrote the partition tables on not one, but three drives!  I did get it all back, but it took a week and was a huge learning exp..
[17:02] <ikonia> John--: burn another one, buy one
[17:02] <ilovefairuz> Jone--: or use a usb desk
[17:02] <ilovefairuz> !unetbootin > John--
[17:03] <senthil_> erUSUL: Agreed... comparably hilarious :)
[17:03] <Turbolinux> ErUSUL: I can't tell you exactly I think. I know the path name and I copied but I am not sure is it right when I copied under ''Examples'' area on sysfs.conf file. I don't want to configure this file in a wrong way.
[17:03] <John--> I have a blank cd, but am I able to download on a live cd?
[17:03] <EruditeOgre> Ok, powertop is reporting that when I use my touchpad I'm getting tons of wakeups [Rescheduling Interrupts] Kernel IPI
[17:03] <ikonia> John--: yes you are
[17:03] <John--> Okay.
[17:03] <John--> I'll do that.
[17:03] <Turbolinux> This is the point.
[17:04] <John--> Thanks for the help.
[17:04] <EruditeOgre> Is this normal? Kinda new to Ubuntu/Linux
[17:04] <NewtoLinux> pakair: when i first installed ubuntu.. i had 2 accounts (ubuntu, guest) The ubuntu account had my first name under it which is what is showing up on the top right.. Then i changed the Ubuntu to read "The Master" but my first name is still showing up under "The Master".  So i went to cli and changed my home directory to read "Master" but then i couldn't log on so I changed everthing back
[17:06] <DummyMode> hi there..
[17:06] <bullgard4> My ssh link to a remote host now and then quits unexpectedly. I obtain: "Write failed: Broken pipe." What log should I look for for details?
[17:07] <rww> EruditeOgre: yup
[17:07] <DummyMode> I'm trying to set up openldap for my PDC, I'm using ubuntu 10.04, but cannot find slapd.conf, where is it? under /etc/ldap there is another structure which I do not know..
[17:07] <erUSUL> Turbolinux: i bet that the lines on the file can be anywhere in it.
[17:07] <bitplane_> bullgard4, record the connection using wireshark, debug TCP packets
[17:08] <Turbolinux> erUSUL: I understand so I will try to save under ''Examples'' are. I hope it will work.
[17:08] <NewtoLinux> pakair: did you get a chance to read my last comment
[17:08] <psyphercode> hi all, just upgraded to the latest kernel and it deleted my windows entry in grub.cfg. ran sudo grub-install and update-grub which didn't fix it. Reading the wiki it says you may not edit grub.cfg. could anyone pls assist?
[17:08] <bullgard4> bitplane_: Thank you very much for your help. I will do that.
[17:08] <DummyMode> or how can I tell openldap to use slapd.conf?
[17:08] <P67> bullgard4: Try connecting to the box using ssh -vvv (Super Verbose).. See where it drops out
[17:09] <bitplane_> bullgard4, it's probably due to a timeout or connection reset. not much you can do about it :(
[17:09] <bullgard4> P67: Thank you for your advice too.
[17:09] <P67> Welcome bullgard4
[17:09] <Archana_> Hi, according to a page in ubuntu geek.com anyone can login my ubuntu by using recovery mode... Isn't this a security vulnerabilty?
[17:10] <gafir> how can I leave X/Gnome GDM etc and go to shell only with Ubuntu?
[17:10] <erUSUL> Archana_: if someone has phisical access to your system all betas are off
[17:10] <bullgard4> bitplane_: At least I will get some more orientation.
[17:10] <Archana_> erUSUL, I don't understand your reply.
[17:10] <erUSUL> Archana_: you can set password in bios and in grub2 to make it more difficult to achieve though
[17:11] <bitplane_> Archana_, look into full disk encryption
[17:11] <Archana_> erUSUL, If posting that page here is against the rules, shall i send that to your pm ?
[17:11] <bitplane_> can't remember the name of the software
[17:11] <bitplane_> truecrypt
[17:11] <Archana_> erUSUL, please check that link in my pm. Isn't that a security vulnerabilty ?
[17:11] <erUSUL> Archana_: that even if recovery mode was anaviable if i'm in front you computer and can reboot it i can use a livecd or edit the grub menu myself
[17:11] <Archana_> bitplane_, Yes, i have truecrypt
[17:12] <Archana_> erUSUL, then, isn't this editting grub - one line a security vulner ?
[17:12] <bitplane_> Archana_, then they can't see your partition without a password anyway, you're safe
[17:12] <erUSUL> Archana_: again even if i can not edit grub i can use a livecd
[17:13] <reisio> someone have a solution to having meta key work for both panel_main_menu _AND_ meta+e, meta+d, etc.?
[17:13] <bitplane_> being able to get onto your system and install a hardware keylogger is a security vulnerability ;)
[17:13] <Archana_> erUSUL, Yes, my question is WHY should ubuntu allow this. Not all users can use truecrypt ..
[17:13] <bitplane_> keep your PC in a locked room!
[17:13] <Archana_> bitplane_, :-)
[17:13] <Archana_> erUSUL, isn't this a security vulnerablty ? :( ...

[17:14] <FloodBot1> brahim: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:14] <bitplane_> Archana_, most users don't need military grade encryption, they want ease of recovery instead
[17:14] <erUSUL> Archana_: becouse disallowing it only porvides a *FALSE* sesnse of security

[17:15] <knoppix> Hey Hell fell on me while upgrading from 8.04 to karmik 9.10 when downloads were completed packages unpacked and configuration was going on. Powercut! For two days I am struggling. Somehow found this knoppix livecd. Now, I have error msg: on recovery boot, my aptitude compels to do dpkg --configure -a but dpkg says the files are readonly. How to proceed please?
[17:15] <Archana_> bitplane_, Ok.
