[13:22] <Ymer-> BestKeptSecret, can you post a pastebin of your cron-file?
[13:22] <Pici> BestKeptSecret: I've not seen an editor that uses that symbol for that purpose.
[13:22] <waldir> coz_: the usb has an "install" folder
[13:22] <igor> can anyone please explain why i can see disk with fdisk -l, but not with a startup disk creator ?
[13:22] <coz_> waldir,  way less chance of download and burn  erros
[13:22] <Basyeer> testing3. hi.. im newbie..
[13:23] <coz_> waldir,  mm
[13:23] <coz_> waldir,  not sure what that means
[13:23] <waldir> there'sthis sbm option apparently
[13:23] <BestKeptSecret> pici it's in man 5 crontabs
[13:23] <waldir> for older bios
[13:23] <waldir> it seems to work for cds
[13:23] <waldir> but no sure about usbs
[13:24] <Ymer-> BestKeptSecret, post a pastebin-link containing your crontab lines.... easier to see if anything is wrong with em then.
[13:24] <waldir> coz_: here'sthe readme on that folder: http://pastebin.com/0ncRVBd0
[13:25] <koulchilebaiz> hey know that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCS7_Kgfxto ?
[13:25] <coz_> waldir,  no thats  not going to work with usb
[13:25] <Flizzer> hi !
[13:25] <anold> hey was wondering how i can install gnome 2.32 in 10.04
[13:25] <waldir> coz_: sure? :(
[13:26] <saurabh_> is using ext4 as partition type for filesystem bad?
[13:26] <anold> from repo
[13:26] <coz_> waldir,  not positive no
[13:26] <coz_> waldir,   guy,, I think the easiest thing to do is have someone burn a cd for you
[13:26] <waldir> coz_: btw, shouldn't grub detect the usb?
[13:26] <BestKeptSecret> pici, http://pastebin.com/Aj7Gsk4q
[13:26] <pmo5> saurabh_, no if it is on a personal desktop..
[13:26] <An_Ony_Moose> I installed xubuntu on top of ubuntu, and now xscreensaver and gnome-screensaver fight for the screen whenever I leave the computer alone for a while. How do I  deactivae gnome-screensaver?
[13:27] <coz_> waldir,  ah mm thats a good question... I think no.. if the system cannot boot from it
[13:27] <[TK]D-Fender> pmo5: What server shortcomings would make EXT4 "bad"?
[13:27] <waldir> hmmm right
[13:27] <Pici> BestKeptSecret: Where were you expecting those to show up? crontab doesn't have any knowledge of your xorg session.
[13:27] <waldir> ok then
[13:27] <Ymer-> BestKeptSecret, you should have the full path to the file you want to run, for eg; * * * * * /bin/echo test > foo.foo
[13:27] <waldir> burning I go
[13:27] <waldir> thanks for all the help coz_
[13:27] <saurabh_> pmo5: what is the best partition type for the filesystem
[13:27] <coz_> waldir,  well I didnt do much other than disappoint...sorry
[13:27] <jiohdi> waldir, some newer comps can boot from usb after you hit f10 or some such
[13:27] <pmo5> [TK]D-Fender, it seems other FS handle better multiaccess > 15
[13:28] <BestKeptSecret> Pici, how do i get it to acknowledge xorg?
[13:28] <waldir> jiohdi: yeah but this one'san oldie :)
[13:28] <waldir> *one's an
[13:28] <coz_> jiohdi,  he has an older system I believe
[13:28] <jiohdi> waldir, its in the bios
[13:28] <pmo5> saurabh_, nothing best. some are better then others, depending on what you want to do
[13:28] <jiohdi> or not
[13:28] <coz_> :)
[13:28] <[TK]D-Fender> pmo5: What would you advise for a small file-server then @ > 4 TB?
[13:29] <waldir> coz_: it's much better than when one gets ignored ;) kudos to you for trying to help people!
[13:29] <pmo5> [TK]D-Fender, how many acces in seconds.. but u am certainly not a reference, since i didn't try all FS..
[13:29] <coz_> waldir,   well dont give up... if you know someone who can burn a cd  take adavantage of it
[13:29] <BestKeptSecret> Pici, how do i get it to acknowledge xorg?
[13:29] <saurabh_> pmo5: i m using my machine as a developemtn server, with lots of virtual machines
[13:30] <pmo5> [TK]D-Fender, i may try xfs, if i'd have to handle more then 15 concurrent access..
[13:30] <[TK]D-Fender> pmo5: Not really a high access rate.  I honestly can't imagine that it should be measurably important for us, so this question is more like an "exercise" that much else...
[13:30] <killown> anyway to resize unity2d icons?
[13:30] <pmo5> [TK]D-Fender, personal.. ext4 is good... enough
[13:30] <waldir> coz_: i can burn one myself but i'll have to overwrite something i got, cause i have no empty cds right now
[13:30] <NeedSomeHelp> Hello, can't install my Canon MP630 printer on Ubuntu. I downloaded and installed the drivers from Canon website and when I click the deb-files, I get the message "There seems to be a programming error in aptdaemon, the software that allows you to install/remove software and to perform other package management related tasks#
[13:30] <waldir> coz_: food for thought: http://mimiandeunice.com/2011/03/21/dont-fix/
[13:31] <BestKeptSecret> noooooo
[13:31] <pmo5> saurabh_, personal.. ext4 looks good enough then
[13:31] <BestKeptSecret> now i'm being ignored
[13:31] <coz_> waldir,  oh lol a cartoon after my own heart,, I love complaining lol
[13:31] <Pici> BestKeptSecret: Patience... Provide the proper environment variables at the top of the crontab.
[13:31] <waldir> coz_: being listened to counts a lot ;)
[13:31] <saurabh_> pmo5: thank you
[13:32] <coz_> waldir,  yes i agree  ,, it does make a difference   even if nothing is solved :)
[13:32] <pmo5> saurabh_, welcome
[13:32] <Pici> BestKeptSecret: typically, its something like: DISPLAY=O:O    but I use mostly non gui sessions, so I'm not sure if that is still correct.
[13:32] <waldir> coz_, exactly ;)
[13:33] <userdel> i want to know what are the things stored when i use firefox's private session. i don't think it's nill.
[13:33] <ManOwl> Is there an easy way of having both firefox 3 and 4 installed in ubuntu?
[13:33] <jiohdi> ManOwl, yes just install the firefox from the site and they will sit side by side
[13:34] <ManOwl>  jiohdi i used the ppa, and it overrode ff3
[13:34] <anold> hey was wondering how i can install gnome 2.32 in 10.04
[13:34] <ManOwl> should I not have installed ff4 from apt?
[13:34] <[TK]D-Fender> pmo5: thanks for the input.. some late 2008 benchmarks (phoronix) didn't seem to concur on XFS having any edge erally.  Not sure how mroe recent kernel may have changed for this, but in the end its all good I guess
[13:35] <jiohdi> ManOwl, no, directly from firefox site... it will give you a compressed file which when uncompressed will allow ff4 to be started just by clicking the firefox file... it all stays within the folder
[13:35] <Ymer-> BestKeptSecret, add this line to ur crontab and see if it works; "*/1 * * * * /bin/echo foo > /home/username/foo" <--- should output a file named foo, containing the string foo.
[13:35] <stef_> #Grnet
[13:35] <jiohdi> ManOwl, when you INSTALL it, it replaces the old one
[13:35] <NeedSomeHelp> Hello, can anyone please help me get my printer (Canon MP630) to work in Ubuntu ? Perhaps I have to dual boot to Windows to print?
[13:35] <ManOwl> jiohdi: i'd prefer to do this with ff3 and leave ff4 in repos
[13:35] <ManOwl> do you know where the old ff3 packages are by any chance
[13:35] <pmo5> [TK]D-Fender, i looked here and there... and when it comes to concurrent access.. XFS and JFS were ahead of others..
[13:36] <userdel> join #firefox
[13:36] <jiohdi> ManOwl, the main binary is in /usr/bin   but it has parts scattered all over the place
[13:36] <ManOwl> thats not what i mean
[13:36] <ManOwl> never mind
[13:36] <ManOwl> thanks for offering
[13:36] <anold> hey was wondering how i can install gnome 2.32 in 10.04
[13:36] <BestKeptSecret> Ymer-, alright one moment
[13:37] <vmlinz> Hello, how can I disable shutdown splash? I want to see the textmode log messages.
[13:37] <waldir> coz_: oh hey, seems like i had an rw dvd around :D with some movies I already had transferred to my external disk ^^
[13:37] <coz_> waldir,  cool  remember to burn that at 1x
[13:37] <waldir> coz_: downloading the 10.10 iso now :D
[13:37] <coz_> waldir,  also check the md5sum
[13:37] <tensorpudding> NeedSomeHelp: quick search reveals http://sourceforge.net/projects/mp610linux/files/ hosting PPD's
[13:38] <waldir> coz_: are errors that common?
[13:38] <coz_> waldir,  or just download the minimal install
[13:38] <coz_> isco
[13:38] <coz_> iso
[13:38] <waldir> coz_: where?
[13:38] <jiohdi> ManOwl, if you mean the package for install on the web, you might try an archive site like sourceforge
[13:38] <coz_> waldir,  well music and iso images  are best burned at 1x
[13:38] <coz_> waldir,  hold on let me get link
[13:38] <waldir> :)
[13:39] <sagaci> the wiki
[13:39] <coz_> waldir,     https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[13:39] <coz_> waldir,  now it is NOT a live cd
[13:39] <waldir> coz_: what else does it lack?
[13:39] <coz_> waldir,  it will begin  on black screen,,, cli,, ends in   boot,,,,  just hit enter
[13:39] <raniere_gomes> I need troubles in ubuntu 11.04... Can someone help me?
[13:39] <Pumpkin-> the FF3 and FF4 solution I would go for, but it might not be the best method, would be to uninstall firefox (and have no 4 PPA in sources), then get the source code for FF3 (via apt-get), build the sources for FF3 with an alternative --prefix in configure (say /usr/local/firefox3), and install that manually.
[13:40] <waldir> coz_: interesting!
[13:40] <waldir> I'lltry that :)
[13:40] <Pumpkin-> then add the PPA and install FF4 normally.
[13:40] <coz_> waldir,  it lacks nothing,, it will get to a point where you choose what you want installed  aka Desktop evironment etc,, to scroll use the arrow keys ,, to choose  use the SPLACE   bar
[13:40] <An_Ony_Moose> I installed xubuntu on top of ubuntu, and now xscreensaver and gnome-screensaver fight for the screen whenever I leave the computer alone for a while. How do I  deactivate gnome-screensaver?
[13:40] <tensorpudding> !ubuntu+1 | raniere_gomes
[13:40] <coz_> waldir,  this is more or less a text install   but not difficult at all
[13:41] <BestKeptSecret> Ymer-, it worked :)
[13:41] <waldir> coz_: I've been getting acquainted with the cli for some time now :)
[13:41] <coz_> waldir,  just take you time with it  ,,, dont jump the gun making choices,, and one suggestion,, choose just one t hing in the software options like   Gnome Desktop  for example
[13:41] <ManOwl> running firefox-bin from the extracted firefox3 package causes the launch of firefox4 even after I've changed LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the firefox dir.
[13:41] <coz_> waldir, then entire thing will download from the internet so it will be completely up to date when you do first boot
[13:42] <waldir> coz_: I first started on ubuntu full time about an year ago... it's kinda inevitable :)
[13:42] <BestKeptSecret> ls
[13:42] <coz_> waldir,  yep understood
[13:43] <ManOwl> ah
[13:43] <ManOwl> had to kill ff4 first
[13:43] <Ymer-> BestKeptSecret, okey, then you can just erase my command and insert your own, it should all work then :)
[13:43] <BestKeptSecret> ManOwl, ff4?
[13:44] <waldir> coz_: done, will reboot now :)
[13:44] <ManOwl> BestKeptSecret: i've installed ff4 using the ppa but I'm using a pre-release version of ff3 that I put in ~/opt
[13:44] <coz_> waldir,  ok
[13:44] <coz_> waldir,  good luck
[13:44] <BestKeptSecret> ppa, ManOwl?
[13:44] <waldir> I won'tbe able to return to irc soon, so thanks in advance :D
[13:44] <waldir> bye
[13:44] <ManOwl> BestKeptSecret: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas
[13:44] <coz_> waldir,  ok  take you time

[13:45] <BajK> why does wayland ALWAYS fail at "no module named libxml2"?!
[13:46] <ManOwl> because there's no module named libxml2!
[13:46] <ManOwl> what programming language, python?
[13:46] <Pici> BajK: Likely because wayland isn't intended for production  use yet.
[13:46] <Ymer-> I could use some assistance with a problem of mine, if anyone could spare a moment; we are currently building a deb-package on a x64 machine (ubuntu) and converting it with chroot to x32, though when the package is installed and we try to run the installed .jar file, it tosses an error and prints out a bunch of jibberishlike chars.. any thought on what the problem is? (should be noted that if not packaging the .jar file with chroot, the .jar runs perfectly)
[13:46] <ManOwl> 9/10 times the error message is indicative of the reason for failure :)
[13:46] <BajK> ok my fault^^ libxml2-dev was not installed but EVERY script and EVERY tut I tested forgets this..
[13:46] <BestKeptSecret> Ymer-, my commands still aren't working... I can tell they're running
[13:47] <NeedSomeHelp> tensorpudding, I just installed those drivers you provided, but nothing happens. Still cant print.
[13:47] <Ymer-> BestKeptSecret, okey, how did you add ur commands?
[13:47] <BestKeptSecret> but not in xorg? or in my gui... because I'll have tomboy open... but it will close
[13:47] <Pici> Ymer-: #ubuntu-packaging is probably a better place to ask, although its not nearly as busy as here.
[13:47] <BestKeptSecret> when a minute passes by
[13:47] <Ymer-> Pici, alrighty mate, thanks
[13:48] <waldir> coz_: I had to come here and comment: the keyboard detection on the minimal cd is awesome!! why on earth does the graphical install use a more cumbersome, "select from a long list" method?
[13:48] <Ymer-> BestKeptSecret, not that you have to specify where the command (my case "echo") is located
[13:48] <Ymer-> BestKeptSecret, note*
[13:48] <BestKeptSecret> Ymer-, * * * * * /usr/bin/tomboy
[13:48] <coz_> waldir,  not sure but since the minimal is  well,,, minimal.. it works faster for surer
[13:49] <eamon|zzz> BestKeptSecret: will that run once a minute?
[13:49] <BestKeptSecret> eamon|zzz, i really just want it to run upon startup
[13:49] <waldir> coz_: it was great because when i installed ubuntu yesterday on this laptop, i thought about how it could try to be smarter, like asking for the user to type a few keys to detect the keyboard layout... and now this does exactly that!!
[13:50] <eamon|zzz> BestKeptSecret: then you want anacron
[13:50] <Ymer-> BestKeptSecret, then you should probably put it in /etc/rc.local instead
[13:50] <coz_> waldir, very cool
[13:50] <eamon|zzz> anacron is for jobs that revolve around downtime. cron is for jobs revolving around uptime
[13:51] <waldir> coz_: and the funny thing is, it asked for about 5 keys, but after the first one it knew already :D
[13:51] <eamon|zzz> !cron
[13:51] <eamon|zzz> !anacron
[13:51] <vmlinz> Hello, anyone knows how can I disable shutdown splash? I want to see the textmode log messages.
[13:52] <koulchilebaiz> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCS7_Kgfxto
[13:52] <coz_> waldir,  so it should install,, just remember about the choices,,  scroll down with arrows and choose "one"  with the Space bar
[13:52] <waldir> "one"?
[13:52] <waldir> ah, choose an option
[13:53] <waldir> I've bene using enter, seems to work too
[13:53] <mithran> hi, can you please give me a very simple guide to configure apache on localhost...im doing this for the very first time, so im struggling with the general instructions..?
[13:53] <coz_> waldir,  enter will NOT work when it comes to the part for chooseing software
[13:53] <coz_> waldir,  it Must be the space bar
[13:53] <waldir> coz_: oh, thanks for the heads up :)
[13:53] <coz_> waldir,  other wise,, it will install the base system with no desktop environment
[13:53] <An_Ony_Moose> mithran: it should work out of the box if you just install the apache2 package
[13:54] <An_Ony_Moose> mithran: what do you need configured?
[13:54] <[TK]D-Fender> mithran: http://www.google.ca/#sclient=psy&hl=en&q=lamp+guide+for+ubuntu&aq=0j&aqi=g-j1&aql=&oq=&pbx=1&fp=ae6a11a8e37ea004

[13:54] <killown> how I do to resize unit2d panel?
[13:54] <waldir> coz_:  ah ok :P
[13:54] <waldir> thanks!
[13:54] <MACscr> ive been seeing tons of new updates lately to 10.10. Even if 11.04 was stable, it wouldnt be rolled out to 10.10 users, would it? I was thinking ubuntu didnt work that way for some reason
[13:55] <mithran> i did that, and it installed, and i got the default page, i even made a really simple html page, and replaced it with the /var/www/index.html, now i want to get this php system infor page to work and Im having a tough time with the readme
[13:55] <mithran> ^An_Ony_Moose: , [TK]D-Fender: having a look
[13:55] <NeedSomeHelp> tensorpudding, I just installed those drivers you provided, but nothing happens. Still cant print. Any idea?
[13:55] <shane4ubuntu> where do I set my virtual desktops?  I have the icon on my tray, but it isn't working, I click it and nothing happens.
[13:56] <waldir> mithran: here's my personal howto instructions :) http://pastebin.com/zmPhsYf8
[13:56] <waldir> maybe that helps!
[13:56] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  do you have compiz running?
[13:57] <BestKeptSecret> ahhhhhh
[13:57] <shane4ubuntu> coz_: yes, it was setup with the wall, and I wanted the desktop, I switched, but it seemed to have messed it up, so I disabled, both, and nothing works.
[13:57] <BestKeptSecret> thanks anyone who helped me... i haven't figured it out
[13:57] <BestKeptSecret> but i'll be back soon
[13:57] <coz_> shane4ubuntu, well open ccsm
[13:57] <BestKeptSecret> !cron
[13:57] <mithran> waldir: thats some really good information, let me try...
[13:58] <shane4ubuntu> coz_: ok, it's open
[13:58] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  clcik on general options..then desktop size tab   ,, set horizontal virutal size to the number of desktop s you want the the other 2 sliders to 1
[13:59] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  then hit the "Back" button, go to the desktop category and make sure the  Desktop cube,, Rotate cube, and viewport switcher plugins are enabled
[14:00] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,   also click on the rotate cube plugin to get into it's settings.. and push up the"zoom" slider to near 1 or just below
[14:00] <Kartagis> on my system there's only adduser.conf. how can I create a useradd.conf to edit its defaults? when I do adduser, I get adduser: Only one or two names allowed. and with adduser I don't have a -p switch
[14:00] <shane4ubuntu> coz_: thanks a billion, I would have never found that!
[14:00] <DarsVaeda> hi, I just installed a asus graphics card but no additional drivers are presented. the card works fine thou...but I fear its not using all the features / full speed, how do I trigger to get the drivers?
[14:00] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  cool hope it works now :)
[14:00] <NeedSomeHelp> Hello, can anyone please help me get my printer (Canon MP630) to work in Ubuntu ? Perhaps I have to dual boot to Windows to print? I have downloaded drivers and tried to install them, but with no luck. Please, I need my to print my tickets asap!
[14:01] <shane4ubuntu> coz_: is that a bug, because it is very odd that it is horizontal size set to 4 and number of desktops set to 1, and vertical 1, that is odd.
[14:01] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  no ,, remember compiz is a single desktop regardless of how many viewports you enable   akd   horizonatl virtual size
[14:01] <BajK> why do I need to log out and back in to change the dpi settings of fonts?! I can change the font itself (and the size) like I want to but for dpi settings I need to restart...
[14:01] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,   the other two sliders are used when using desktop wall
[14:02] <shane4ubuntu> coz_: I thought it used to be when I hit ctrl alt down arrow it would switch too, but now it goes to wall
[14:02] <sipior> Kartagis: does /etc/default/useradd exist on your system?
[14:02] <durando> i have a system that i need to install to that has some unique problems, it doesn't have a cdrom and i only have a 64mb usbkey, but i do have a esata hard drive i could plug into the system
[14:02] <Kartagis> sipior: yes, it does
[14:03] <sipior> Kartagis: good, edit it :-)
[14:03] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  that goes to  Unfold desktop
[14:03] <erUSUL> Kartagis: adduser needs the username as parameter... debian adduser is not interactive like RH's and others
[14:03] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  which means you can see the whole desktop
[14:03] <carlos_guerrilha> im trying to install ubuntu on a preety old compaq notebook, its a p4 with 40gb and 256ram, ubuntu 10.10 gave some errors on booting. Do you recommend for me a lighter distro or something?
[14:03] <NeedSomeHelp> I've been trying to install my printer for hours on Ubuntu! Have tried cups, have tried downloading drivers from Canon website, and tried enhanced drivers from a sourceforge net. Nothing is working!
[14:04] <shane4ubuntu> coz_: ahh, ok, that would be in the shortcut settings then, or key bindings.
[14:04] <carlos_guerrilha> will ubuntu work at all in this confs?
[14:04] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  vieports are sort of like a film strip,,for a movie,, one frame at a time  but only one movie,, compiz is one desktop  cut up into those  "frames"
[14:04] <ikonia> carlos_guerrilha: you may have an easier time with Xubuntu
[14:04] <ikonia> carlos_guerrilha: still a little light on ram though
[14:04] <carlos_guerrilha> hmm i see
[14:04] <gerrin> can anybody hook me up with the panel reset code?
[14:04] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  compiz does not use "desktop"  it uses  "viewports"
[14:04] <coz_> "desktops" rather
[14:05] <shane4ubuntu> coz_: ahh, ok, thanks for the info, that is all odd to me, I just use it and enjoy it, don't really understand it. :)
[14:05] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  :)
[14:05] <LarsTo> hi
[14:05] <arand> !panelreset | gerrin
[14:05] <LarsTo> a question
[14:05] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  I may have explained too much :)
[14:05] <LarsTo> should i use 10 04, 10.10 or 11.04 ?
[14:05] <dtcrshr> (carlos_guerrilha here) it has windows xp on it
[14:05] <david5345> For some reason all my server logins are coming out as "failed password for invalid user X". Nothing else is given and I see my users in passwd. Is there a way to get increased verbosity in auth.log ?
[14:05] <shane4ubuntu> coz_: well, it is just nice to know that someone out there understands it!
[14:05] <coz_> LarsTo,  well if you like testing use 11.04
[14:06] <coz_> LarsTo,  if you want more stable go with 10.04 LTS  or 10.10
[14:06] <Kartagis> thanks erUSUL and sipior
[14:06] <dtcrshr> i think its quite hard to find newer memory for this nb
[14:06] <LarsTo> coz_ normally more stable, but the supported end soon with ubuntu10.10
[14:06] <Kartagis> !resetpanel > gerrin
[14:06] <jrib> david5345: are you sure you're not mistyping the username, possibly by using uppercase letters?
[14:06] <LeanoX> hello,every teachers.I  wonder is it right when use a tar.bz2 packet  I need not install but decompression
[14:06] <d3vic3> Kartagis: use | instead of >
[14:06] <david5345> jrib, I am sure
[14:06] <coz_> LarsTo,  not for some time  .. it will be suported another year I believe
[14:06] <r1tz> I really like how unity is at the side. After all, screens nowadays are wide, we need to use the sides.
[14:06] <Kartagis> d3vic3: okay
[14:07] <shane4ubuntu> coz_: ok, I want the standard 4 desktops, two above, and two below, I set 2 verticle and 2 horiz.   how do I setup my desktop to play nice with the alt ctrl down and up arrows?
[14:07] <LarsTo> ok
[14:07] <trap2> which is the best chatbot you use ?
[14:07] <grimlyhefty> What are the default ports for ssh? My server is refusing my -p 20 21 22 after a reboot
[14:07] <Pici> grimlyhefty: just 22
[14:07] <r1tz> 22
[14:07] <LarsTo> coz_ have you ubuntu 10.10 too ?
[14:07] <grimlyhefty> It's refusing it.
[14:08] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  well not sure it can with those settings... you may have to play with it,, in normal      desktop cube  with horizinal virtual size set to 4 and the other two sliders to 1  it should work but I know it wont work if you chante that 4 to a 3
[14:08] <r1tz> grimlyhefty: firewall?
[14:08] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  so you have play with the settings to get it just right for your tastes
[14:08] <grimlyhefty> Not mine. Im running ubuntu desktop
[14:08] <LarsTo> hi ho coz_ have you ubuntu 10.10 too ?
[14:08] <grimlyhefty> the server is 10.04
[14:08] <sipior> grimlyhefty: if the error is "Connection Refused", you're not running the ssh server on the target machine.
[14:08] <d3vic3> grimlyhefty: make sure ssh server is running
[14:08] <coz_> LarsTo,  I am on ubuntu 10.10  on this machine and 11.04  on a testing machine
[14:08] <shane4ubuntu> coz_: that is the way it was usually setup before for me, I'm not sure how/why it changed, I switched back to gnome from kde.
[14:08] <LarsTo> ok me 2
[14:08] <coz_> LarsTo,   I prefer 10.04  because it is LTS
[14:09] <NeedSomeHelp> Need Help! I've been trying to install my printer for hours on Ubuntu! Have tried cups, have tried downloading drivers from Canon website, and tried enhanced drivers from a sourceforge net. Nothing is working!
[14:09] <david5345> I think the problem is in PAM ; pam_unix(sshd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= rhost=myip user=myuser
[14:09] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  ah I see,, thinks are a bit different on kde + compiz  but not the settings
[14:09] <grimlyhefty> My server is an ovh box. How can I start ssh remotely without getting connected to it?
[14:09] <LarsTo> normally i would prefer 10.04 too, but installed 10.10 now, didnt want to  do that but it  was accidentally
[14:09] <ikonia> grimlyhefty: you need to be connected to start it
[14:09] <LarsTo> should i to reinstall ?
[14:09] <shane4ubuntu> coz_: right, I didn't mess with the settings though, I usually don't tinker around in there much, as you can tell. :)
[14:10] <ikonia> LarsTo: up to you, use what distro you want
[14:10] <david5345> So how do I make pam do verbose logging ?
[14:10] <grimlyhefty> Ty for the assistance.
[14:11] <LarsTo> I wanted to install ubuntu 10.04 but grapped the wrong usb drive !!
[14:11] <LarsTo> now i installed 10.10 .. :)
[14:11] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  shouldnt be a problem.. if you mess up just open ccsm / preferences/ and reset to defaults
[14:11] <ikonia> LarsTo: you've said that already
[14:11] <LarsTo> its recommend to format and install 10.04 then ? :)
[14:11] <ikonia> LarsTo: it's you to YOU if you want to use 10.04
[14:11] <LarsTo> ikonia: yes but very bad english
[14:11] <shane4ubuntu> coz_: Thanks a bundle.
[14:12] <LarsTo> ok thanks
[14:12] <ruan> i just downloaded a file with firefox, it didn't save in tmp or Downloads and i've set it to not keep history, where could my file be?
[14:12] <coz_> shane4ubuntu,  no  problem...enjoy
[14:12] <rman_> he mensen
[14:12] <LarsTo> is a LTS more stable than a non LTS
[14:12] <LarsTo> or is it only longer supported
[14:12] <r1tz> ruan: lol, check firefox settings for defualt download location
[14:12] <ikonia> ruan: look in your preferences
[14:12] <uni4dfx> is there a way to disable guest access to specific shared folders in ubuntu?
[14:12] <ikonia> LarsTo: no
[14:12] <ikonia> LarsTo: longer support
[14:12] <LarsTo> ok
[14:12] <LarsTo> ok.. :)
[14:12] <ruan> i downloaded a file at the same time and it saved in downloads :S
[14:13] <coz_> LarsTo,   one thing about LTS is its long term support and the ease of updating to the next lts  which is 12.0  I believe
[14:13]  * Tremwar is an IRC noob...
[14:13] <coz_> LarsTo,  rather  12.04
[14:13]  * grimlyhefty huggles Tremwar.
[14:13] <Tremwar> who
[14:13] <ruan> nope, it's not in downloads but i still downloaded it. not appearing from terminal either
[14:13] <LarsTo> big Praise for Ubuntu !! :)
[14:13] <LarsTo> yes 12.04 longer then
[14:13] <LarsTo> than
[14:14] <ruan> doesn't show up in ls -r in tmp or home
[14:15] <coz_> LarsTorben,  which means form one LTS to the next  ,, is a 2 year period ,... did I figure that right?
[14:15] <coz_> LarsTorben,  sorry wrong nick
[14:15] <coz_> oy I guess he left
[14:15] <Combatjuan> Is there a way I can get a list of available packages from just one of the sources in my list?
[14:15] <ruan> downloading again then..
[14:16] <david5345> HA! Found it! I found where to activate verbose logging for PAM, now it says "User novacafe not allowed because shell /bin/scponly does not exist", I guess "Invalid User" error in auth.log also means invalid shell.
[14:16] <LarsT> @ coz_ yes i understand you :)
[14:16] <Roger__> heyy
[14:16] <coz_>     guys I have to break here  ,, I will try to be back in a while
[14:16] <Roger__> how can i install vncviewer
[14:17] <grimlyhefty> Roger__, server or client side?
[14:17] <LarsT> coz_ its recommend to update from LTS to LTS ? or is it better upgrading from release to release ?
[14:17] <Roger__> client side
[14:17] <ikonia> LarsT: your choice again
[14:18] <grimlyhefty> Just download the vncviewer and user your settings from the server-side install and it connects.
[14:18] <LarsT> yes i know but what do you do ?
[14:18] <ikonia> LarsT: it's what you do that is important
[14:18] <Roger__> where i can dl it?
[14:19] <d3vic3> Roger_ : apt-cache search vncviewer then choose from the list
[14:19] <grimlyhefty> Roger__, google is your friend.
[14:19] <LarsT> it sounds good, upgrading from LTS to LTS...but i often format so its no problem to format or upgrade every 6 / 18 months
[14:19] <Roger__> ok tnx
[14:20] <d3vic3> Roger_ : to install use sudo apt-get install packagename
[14:20] <LarsT> and the other question is, should a buy a new harddrive ?? if often formated it !! it is distroyed ?
[14:20] <windparadise> Helllo good morning, pls any linux pro speaks chinese here?

[14:27] <tim167> ikonia: any idea how to get this button back? i'm tired of typing "sudo shutdown -h now", too many letters...
[14:27] <sipior> zonyl: be sure you have "vim" installed, and not just "vim-tiny".

[14:34] <remink> How to sort this "ls" command to have 1, 2, 3, ..., 10, 11, 12, ... plz : http://pastie.org/1763279 ?
[14:34] <geeko> jrib: right, i meant grub.cfg lists more entries then it does in reality when booting up
[14:34] <WeThePeople> is it possible to mount 2 HDD in the same dir.  e.g. /media/book  ?
[14:34] <Fearless13> it sorts natively 1 2 3 4 5
[14:35] <jrib> geeko: can you be more specific?
[14:35] <d3vic3> WeThePeople: the last mounted one will hide first content
[14:35] <Guest72747> sipior:is there any way to add any any other package?
[14:35] <root_> cce start
[14:35] <ironsight> WeThePeople: using lvm for your partitions yes
[14:35] <hermitduan> ok
[14:35] <sipior> Guest72747: i'm not sure exactly what you're asking.
[14:35] <remink> Fearless13: Yes, but I want 1, 2, 3 and not 10, 11, 12
[14:36] <hermitduan> where are you from?
[14:36] <Combatjuan> ikonia: vim does have a diff feature.  I use it daily and it's awesome.  ":h diffthis"
[14:36] <d3vic3> Guest72747: try xconfig in kernel source to get what you want
[14:36] <root_> brazil
[14:36] <hermitduan> brazil?
[14:36] <Guest72747> sipior:i want to add a software package with the kernel and than will recompile the kernel to get that package installed
[14:36] <root_> yes
[14:37] <root_> and you?
[14:37] <hermitduan> your name is root?
[14:37] <stix> how to hack wireless internet ?
[14:37] <sipior> Guest72747: then the page i pointed you to earlier should help you considerably.
[14:37] <cheryl> Hi gifted ones of knowledge!
[14:37] <ikonia> Combatjuan: it's not a compile option
[14:37] <hermitduan> this is my first time to use xchat
[14:37] <geeko> jrib: paste.ubuntu.com/590242 is my grub.cfg.
[14:37] <ikonia> stix: please don't ask, we don't support that
[14:37] <root_> myes
[14:37] <hermitduan> root, I am from China
[14:37] <Guest72747> sipior:so u r saying that its smthng related to dkms:
[14:37] <geeko> jrib: The entries at the very bottom (linux, linux-tui and linux-gui) don't appear when booting up
[14:37] <root_> hi
[14:37] <cheryl> I just installed an HP printer, I've added the printer in Ubuntu, although it did find it no problem, nothing happens when I print a doc. Can anyone shed light please?
[14:37] <Combatjuan> ikonia: It is.  ":version" -> it's the +diff option.
[14:38] <Guest72747> d3vic3:tell me the full procedure
[14:38] <ikonia> Combatjuan: doesn't show as a compile time optoion in 6.3, but I'll take your word
[14:38] <jrib> geeko: is it possible you have grub also installed elsewhere?
[14:38] <Combatjuan> ikonia: Ah.  Yes.  It's 7.0 or later.  But 7.0 is about 5 years old, isn't it.
[14:38] <sipior> ikonia: time to grab a more recent version, friend :-) also, ensure that you're using the full vim, not the crippled vim-tiny that ubuntu ships by default.
[14:38] <geeko> jrib: yip, but a grub legacy on another partition
[14:39] <baslisks> alright
[14:39] <jrib> geeko: are you sure you aren't seeing that grub's menu?  Maybe modify that and see if the changes show up
[14:39] <baslisks> I upgraded to 11.04
[14:39] <baslisks> and I hate this bar thing
[14:39] <stix> how to empty trash?
[14:39] <baslisks> how do I go back?
[14:39] <baslisks> I don't need to go 10.10 or 10.4
[14:39] <Pici> baslisks : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Natty/11.04 support/discussion.
[14:39] <baslisks> just need to get rid of this annoying ass bar
[14:39] <geeko> jrib: unfortunately yes, there's only 4 entries: ubuntu, ubuntu failsafe, memtest, memtest failsafe (or similar)
[14:39] <jrib> baslisks: at the login screen choose "classic desktop"
[14:40] <baslisks> jrib, thank you
[14:40] <d3vic3> jrib: grub can be installed on first MBR or partition MBR
[14:40] <d3vic3> Guest72747: http://newbiedoc.sourceforge.net/tutorials/kernel-pkg/config-kernel-pkg.html.en
[14:40] <MACscr> baslisks: i found it to be a bit stupid myself
[14:40] <jrib> geeko: you're saying that you *are* seeing grub legacy's menu at boot?
[14:41] <geeko> jrib: i am seeing a grub 1.98 with the ubuntu entries. is that legacy?

[14:45] <Combatjuan> FlameTai1: What's your problem.  People will help if they can and it seems appropriate.
[14:45] <jrib> geeko: no, that's likely grub 2.  I have to go now though and do not have any suggestions for you
[14:45] <farciarz84> red2kic: I don't use it
[14:46] <geeko> jrib: too bad, but thanks a lot for your help anyways
[14:46] <red2kic> farciarz84: SUPER KEY / FLAG KEY. Also, PageUp, PageDown, Home, End. I use some of them. :)
[14:46] <remink> Fearless13: The problem was the "*.xml"

[14:47] <ray9na> I've never had that problem before. And it does ask me for the password when I search for updates manually.
[14:47] <jrib> geeko: there's a grub-specific channel on freenode (probably #grub) you can try if no one here can help atm
[14:47] <Flirty> should i use identd For IRC is it any useful ??
[14:48] <grimlyhefty> Q: Where is the ssh port number specified in Ubuntu Server 10.04 ?
[14:48] <Combatjuan> Guest72747: What do you want to add to the kernel?
[14:48] <d3vic3> ray9na: try sudo update-manager
[14:48] <d3vic3> and don't forget man update-manager
[14:48] <FlameTai1> Combatjuan, Well the problem is I bought a FreeAgent GoFlex drive 2TB USB3.0 but using it on USB2.0, (IT supposedly has backwards compatability) It works fine other than when I turn my computer on if I have it plugged in via USB it freezes on the bios logo screen, In order for it to not be frozen I have to unplug the external drive, restart the computer manually then plug the drive in when the OS is starting to load otherwise it wo
[14:48] <geeko> jrib: thanks! ill try
[14:48] <Fearless13> grimlyhefty: have a look in sshd_config
[14:48] <FlameTai1> uld freeze again.
[14:48] <grimlyhefty> ty
[14:48] <ProfessorDucky> grimlyhefty: do you mean where is the config or you want to knwo what it currently is set at?
[14:48] <FlameTai1> Combatjuan, any idea why? lol.
[14:48] <grimlyhefty> Both if possible
[14:48] <ray9na> I'll try it, d3vic3.

[14:49] <grimlyhefty> Im locked out of my server because the port number is different
[14:49] <grimlyhefty> ping works, but all ssh connections refused
[14:49] <xwx> 有中国人吗？
[14:49] <ProfessorDucky> grimlyhefty: "/etc/ssh/sshd_config" <- to set the port number
[14:49] <Combatjuan> FlameTai1: The only thing I could suggest is checking your bios and perhaps disabling usb as a boot device.  Perhaps the bios thinks that it has a boot sector but it really doesn't?
[14:49] <Fearless13> it can be a pb with your firewall
[14:49] <grimlyhefty> ty
[14:49] <ProfessorDucky> grimlyhefty: "netstat -antp" to see which ports are in use on your system
[14:49] <ProfessorDucky> and if you're external and have permission to do so
[14:50] <groundup> I am trying to find a package with PHP-FPM, mysqlnd, PDO MySQL driver.
[14:50] <farciarz84> red2kic: http://trendog.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/apple-aluminum-wired-keyboard-mb110lla_keys1.jpg
[14:50] <FlameTai1> Combatjuan, I've tried that but for some reason it still freezes, it's very odd.
[14:50] <ProfessorDucky> you could use NMAP
[14:50] <Combatjuan> Guest72747: I'm not sure what vlc has to do with the kernel.  Can you just "sudo apt-get install vlc"?
[14:50] <farciarz84> red2kic: are you talking about mouse or keyboard?
[14:50] <Combatjuan> FlameTai1: Could be that your bios is confused and angered by USB 3.0?  Maybe flash the bios with a new version?  Sorry.  I'm quite out of ideas.
[14:51] <red2kic> farciarz84: Ah nice. I got a mac laptop. That thing aren't included. :)
[14:51] <Guest72747> Combatjuan:dat i also know how to install bt i want it to be installed by the kernel
[14:51] <cheryl> Could someone please help me get my printer working in Karmic??
[14:51] <d3vic3> Guest72747: I thought you were asking for kernel modules... packages are something external to the kernel and can not be integrated into!
[14:51] <pmo5> cheryl, if it's working, it's all good
[14:52] <d3vic3> what is your point? may be we can help... the general idea behind your thoughts
[14:52] <pmo5> grab some neurons..
[14:52] <cheryl> pmo5, It's not printing anything, so no, it's not working
[14:52] <Guest72747> d3vic3:r u sure its not possible to add package with the kernel
[14:52] <Combatjuan> Guest72747: The phrase "installed by the kernel" is meaningless to me.
[14:52] <ferengee> Guest72747, The kernel cant install software
[14:52] <pmo5> cheryl, cups is boss
[14:52] <pmo5> cheryl, <IP_ADDRESS>:631
[14:52] <mbeierl> FlameTai1: is your bios one of the new ones that supports EFI and it's trying to probe the device?
[14:53] <d3vic3> Guest72747: nop :)
[14:53] <jwtiyar> i have lts how to upgrade it to 10.10?
[14:53] <Guest72747> ferengee:bt wen will compile the kernel than i cud be installed or not?
[14:53] <cheryl> pmo5, You mistook me for someone with more knowledge than I have!!
[14:53] <grimlyhefty> ProfessorDucky, thanks for the assist, however, I cannot connect to my server to see what the port is to connect via ssh. any suggestions what I should do? The server is an OVH box.
[14:53] <cheryl> pmo5, The only cups I know are in my kitchen lol
[14:53] <Combatjuan> Guest72747: Are you a native Englishs speaker?
[14:53] <Guest72747> Combatjuan:means it will be installed after the compilation of kernel
[14:53] <pmo5> cheryl .. if you haven't already done, i suggest you install cups : 'sudo apt-get install cups'
[14:53] <Flirty> Hello ProfessorDucky , i just wanted to know if using identd is any good 'cuz I ve heard lots of security issues with it.
[14:54] <pmo5> Combatjuan, no i am not
[14:54] <Guest72747> Combatjuan:nop
[14:54] <damiansmith> peace I'm out
[14:54] <pmo5> cheryl, then on a browser, you set it up using http://<IP_ADDRESS>:631 (you'll need root password)
[14:54] <ruan> i need a command which will take a screenshot from ssh
[14:55] <pmo5> ruan, gimp
[14:55] <ruan> pmo5: from ssh?
[14:55] <ruan> hmm
[14:55] <cheryl> pmo5, the apt-get didn't work, cups may already be installed, just dunno how to use 'em.
[14:55] <ferengee> Guest72747, What is it exactly that you want to do, and if that fails, what is the error message that you receive
[14:55] <pmo5> ruan, as long as it is on your screen
[14:56] <jwtiyar> i have 10.4.1 lts how to upgrade it to 10.10?
[14:56] <ruan> pmo5: can it be saved as a jpg file?
[14:56] <Combatjuan> Guest72747: I'm still a bit unclear on the goal.  Perhaps you have a custom kernel that you compile yourself and it has some special extensions which help vlc with video decoding and you custom compile your vlc as well?  And you want it to be a one-step process?
[14:56] <pmo5> cheryl, if cup is install it should ask for a password when you try to open this web page <IP_ADDRESS>:631
[14:56] <Guest72747> ferengee:i wanna add the external package to the kernel during compilation,is there any way to integrate the package with kernel
[14:56] <pmo5> ruan, gimp can do it
[14:56] <ruan> ok
[14:56] <ruan> pmo5: what would be the command
[14:57] <tensorpudding> groundup: the php5 packages that ubuntu uses from debian are, for some reason, not compiled with mysqlnd and pdo support
[14:57] <NeedSomeHelp> Need Help! I've been trying to install my printer for hours on Ubuntu! Have tried cups, have tried downloading drivers from Canon website, and tried enhanced drivers from a sourceforge net. Nothing is working!
[14:57] <cheryl> pmo5, No it didn't, but there was some sort of problem when I ran the sudo apt-get install cups command
[14:57] <groundup> tensorpudding: I am using the php-fpm package but it doesn't even have any compile flags
[14:58] <pmo5> ruby look at the menus on gimp. when you save a file, extension will tell format .jpg for jpeg etc
[14:58] <ferengee> Guest72747, if you want to extend the kernel with functionality that is not in your current kernel source, you will have to use a patch or download a source that has the functionality
[14:58] <Flirty> :(
[14:58] <ubuntu> hey all
[14:58] <ruan> pmo5: this is from SSH, not gui
[14:58] <Flirty> thx
[14:58] <Guest72747> Combatjuan: i have already compiled the latest kernel version in 9.04 but wat i want to do is add vlc  with my kernel
[14:58] <ubuntu> i just got ubuntu 10.10 on a flash drive and im trying to update but it keeps taking dpkg errors
[14:58] <ferengee> Guest72747, but vlc is a userspace progam that should not be in the kernel
[14:59] <pmo5> cheryl, sort of.. :) .. you may ask .. well litteraly command should be : 'sudo apt-get install cups'.
[14:59] <ubuntu> it says my initramfs-tools isn't configured
[14:59] <ubuntu> how do i configure it?
[14:59] <Guest72747> ferengee: so theres no way to add any package with kernel externally
[14:59] <ubuntu> actually, alot of things aren't configured
[14:59] <pmo5> cheryl, if something goes wrong either you tell us the exact reply.. / output or you ask ubuntu affiliates.. i don't use ubuntu
[15:00] <ruan> Guest72747: why do you want to package vlc with a kernel?
[15:00] <Combatjuan> Guest72747: Sorry.  You're still not making sense.  Perhaps try your native language channel? Or do as ferengee says and post your command and the error.
[15:00] <tensorpudding> groundup: are you sure you're checking the right package?
[15:00] <pmo5> ruan, you can make use of gui through ssh.. depends on the variable DISPLAY
[15:00] <ferengee> ubuntu, dpkg --configure -a
[15:00] <ruan> pmo5: yes but im sshing from a phone
[15:00] <cheryl> pmo5, You don't want me to paste the error here, wot's the link for that please?
[15:00] <Guest72747> ruan: bcoz its my major project
[15:00]  * Combatjuan goes afk
[15:00] <groundup> tensorpudding: I have it installed. So, I'm not really sure.
[15:01] <cheryl> pmo5, Then I can give you the output I got running sudo-apt get install cups
[15:01] <ubuntu> udev, plymouth, alsa-utils, gvfs-fuse, initramfs-tools, gdm, xserver-xorg-core, etc
[15:01] <ferengee> ubuntu but there is probably a dependency conflict on your system
[15:01] <groundup> Well, I have another problem which is bigger. It's causing me to boot from a USB drive
[15:01] <pmo5> ruan, actually i think what you are looking for is 'take a screenhot' on the command line..
[15:01] <ruan> pmo5: yes
[15:01] <groundup> I get a blinking cursor when I boot. I am using Ubuntu Server 10.10.
[15:01] <ruan> pmo5: how do i do that?
[15:02] <ubuntu> ferengee: shouldn't be, it's a brand new install i downloaded 4 hours ago. installed to flash drive, loaded it up and tried to do a upgrade and all this stuff started breaking
[15:02] <pmo5> cheryl, error message, only if it is not that big.. otherwise.. cutandpaste.org might be the right place
[15:02] <ruan> groundup: what happens if you hold down your shift key while booting?
[15:02] <ruan> groundup: lshift
[15:02] <pmo5> ruan, actually i don't know..
[15:02] <ferengee> ubuntu, the upgrade might have broken it
[15:02] <ruan> pmo5: thanks anyway
[15:02] <ubuntu> now i cant apt-get anything because it keeps taking dpkg errors
[15:02] <ubuntu> ferengee: great... just what i wanted to hear....
[15:02] <tensorpudding> groundup: i mean, you were looking using the source package right?
[15:03] <ferengee> ubuntu try dpkg --configure -a, and apt-get -f install and see what it says
[15:03] <groundup> tensorpudding: I was looking for the php-fpm package which I installed but none of that stuff was installed
[15:03] <groundup> ruan: nothing
[15:03] <groundup> I guess I have to compile it :(
[15:03] <tensorpudding> i just said that they weren't compiled with mysqlnd support, there's actually a wishlist bug in the debian bugtracker explaining why
[15:03] <FlameTai1> mbeierl, sorry went AFK, the mobo is a few years old lol, it's a Gateway 500 or somethin like that (The computer is)
[15:03] <ubuntu> ferengee: both give me the same errors. and it wont write a report because the maxreports limit has ben reached :: shrugs ::
[15:04] <cheryl> pmo5, I will try a few things 'n return later when it's quieter, thanks for your help. Will also try 'n get in touch with a friend using Ubuntu!
[15:04] <ferengee> ubuntu, do you have free space left?
[15:04] <FlameTai1> Combatjuan, I might have to try that, the bios is pretty old after all.
[15:04] <ubuntu> there are 17 packages that wont install because other packages aren't configured
[15:04] <ubuntu> yeah, alittle over 1 gig left
[15:04] <pmo5> cheryl, cheers ;-)
[15:04] <farciarz84> hi, I'd like to buy full apple keyboard. Will it work from scratch in ubuntu?
[15:04] <mbeierl> FlameTai1: I've had problems with EFI recently, but older ones ... they should not care.  It does sound like the BIOS is trying to do a USB boot from it and not getting a response.
[15:05] <ruan> farciarz84: it should, people have been running macs from ubuntu
[15:05] <tensorpudding> groundup: as for pdo, you can install it using pecl
[15:05] <Guest72747> chalo bye duniya walo
[15:05] <ferengee> ubuntu, can you see why the packages won't configure?
[15:05] <groundup> Yeah, I guess that's what I will have to do.
[15:05] <Guest72747> kisi ne bhi meri madad nhi ki
[15:05] <groundup> Not that I wanted to.
[15:05] <Guest72747> koi nhi nipat lunga bd me
[15:05] <Guest72747> thnks all
[15:06] <pmo5> ruan,package imagemagick :  import -window root -resize 400?300 -delay 200 screenshot.png
[15:06] <ferengee> ubuntu, which dependencies are unmet?
[15:06] <ubuntu> here is the list: fuse-utils, gvfs-fuse, udev, plymouth, asla-utils, gdm, gdm-guest-session, media-player-info, plymouth-label, xserver-xorg-core/input-evdev/video-geode/video-intel, initramfs-tools, linux-image-2.6.35-22-generic
[15:06] <FlameTai1> mbeierl, I've checked every setting to do with USB and I can't find anything where it would be thinking to do a USB boot from it lol, Besides that I've never been able to get anything booted off of USB lol
[15:06] <ruan> pmo5: thanks
[15:06] <ubuntu> ferengee: the unmet dependancies are just lack of configuration
[15:07] <saal7193> why cant i remove files with more than 1 word in terminal?
[15:07] <ruan> pmo5: how do i save it as a jpg file?
[15:07] <tensorpudding> saal7193: are you using backslash escapes?
[15:07] <new_to_ubuntu1> Is there a auto hide function to this Launcher in Unity?  Running 10.10 Netbook.
[15:07] <saal7193> tensorpudding, no
[15:07] <pmo5> ruan, did you notice screenshot.jpg .. <-- name of the file
[15:07] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, then run, sudo dpkg --configure -a
[15:07] <tensorpudding> saal7193: you need to either escape the spaces using \ or to enclose the whole path in double quotes
[15:07] <ferengee> ubuntu, then the only thing i can come up with is: dpkg-reconfigure for each package
[15:07] <ruan> pmo5: ok i'll try that
[15:07] <iceroot> saal7193: rm "foo bar" will remove a file called foo bar, rm foo bar will delete the files foo and bar
[15:08] <saal7193> ohhh
[15:08] <ubuntu> example: dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of gvfs-fuse: gvfs-fuse depends on fuse-utils; however: package fuse-utils is not configured yet.
[15:08] <saal7193> thanks tensorpudding  and iceroot
[15:08] <groundup> So, that whole booting with a blinking cursor. I used unetbootin  to create a boot drive on a USB drive
[15:08] <tensorpudding> saal7193: like rm /home/test/My\ Taxes.xls
[15:08] <groundup> Now, it won't change off of it.
[15:08] <tensorpudding> saal7193: or conversely rm "/home/test/My Taxes.xls"
[15:09] <saal7193> tensorpudding, i got it now thanks!
[15:09] <ray9na> d3vic3: So I tried "sudo update-manager" instead of directly running the GUI, and I gave it my password just like when I open the GUI, and there was no difference.
[15:09] <tensorpudding> groundup: which version of ubuntu is this by the way
[15:09] <groundup> 10.10
[15:09] <ubuntu> and its the same for all the broken packages
[15:09] <groundup> (server if it makes any difference)
[15:09] <ruan> ray9na: gksudo update-manager
[15:10] <tensorpudding> ray9na: you should use gksudo instead of sudo in that instance
[15:10] <d3vic3> ruan: sudo apt-get install scrot
[15:10] <ray9na> i'll try that then :)
[15:10] <d3vic3> !scrot | ruan
[15:10] <ubuntu> when i try to dpkg-reconfigure fuse-utils, it says that fuse-utils is broken or not fully installed and dies
[15:10] <ruan> !info scrot
[15:10] <dtcrshr> hello! im trying to install ubuntu on this quite old notebook, but seems that the cdrom reader isnt very good, or the memory (256) dont allow me to enter the installation. is there such a thing as a tiny cd install or a only text mode install for 10.10
[15:10] <celoma> Hi everbody
[15:10] <ruan> d3vic3: ok thanks
[15:11] <ProfessorDucky> grimlyhefty: if you are still here, if it were my box and i couldnt access my ssh server, i would use nmap
[15:11] <tensorpudding> dtcrshr: try the alternate install
[15:11] <Torbenlars> Ubuntu
[15:11] <groundup> I get a maroon screen that says "ubuntu 10.10" and then the CLI when I boot from the USB drive. So, I don't think it's a graphic card issue. I read that it might be a grub issue but I can't figure out how to diagnose or fix that
[15:11] <tensorpudding> dtcrshr: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download
[15:11] <fairuz> Hey, any suggestion on a simple but complete benchmark program that i can compile statically?
[15:11] <grimlyhefty> ProfessorDucky, I am still here, but not making progress. Every attempt to connect to the server is refused. So how would I use nmap. sorry, getting frustrated.
[15:11] <ProfessorDucky> grimlyhefty:ill pm you
[15:12] <grimlyhefty> ty
[15:12] <tensorpudding> groundup: and holding down right shift does nothing?
[15:12] <groundup> Yes
[15:12] <tensorpudding> groundup: it ought to bring up the grub menu
[15:12] <groundup> nope
[15:12] <tensorpudding> groundup: are you sure your BIOS is set to boot from the hard drive?
[15:12] <new_to_ubuntu1> Is there a auto hide function to this Launcher in Unity?  Running 10.10
[15:12] <d3vic3> ray9na: try gksudo update-manager if still the same proglem try logging as root than just run update-manager from command line else you should be facing another problem... let me know
[15:12] <siddhantchd> hey guys can someone tell me a software for billing ??
[15:12] <ubuntu> screw it. ill just reinstall
[15:13] <groundup> The boot order is: USB, HDD, CD
[15:13] <ray9na> I just tried that and it did not ask me for my password, so it didn't work, either.
[15:13] <ubuntu> what is the minimalist ubuntu? i want a gui, but i dont want stuff like open office, cd-burner stuff, etc
[15:13] <ray9na> I don't know how to log in as root.
[15:13] <walraven_> try lubuntu
[15:13] <ferengee> ubuntu, you could use dpkg --force-depends as a last resort
[15:14] <ubuntu> walraven_: will it run on a netbook?
[15:14] <walraven_> sudo will do for root, use password created on install
[15:14] <d3vic3> ubuntu: try installing base system (without gui) than add packages as you need...
[15:14] <siddhantchd> can anyone help with suggesting any thing ?
[15:14] <ray9na> That's what I've been trying. :(
[15:14] <walraven_> like sudo apt-get install firefox
[15:15] <ubuntu> d3vic3: which installer is that? server?
[15:15] <ubuntu> i just want barebones to start with and add only the packages I want
[15:15] <Pici> !minimal | ubuntu
[15:15] <groundup> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=669410 says to change /dev/hdc but I don't see anything like that in /dev
[15:15] <walraven_> and try to remove the usb from boot-order
[15:15] <ray9na> I've had Ubuntu for a while. I started off with Jaunty, now I'm on Lucid. I've never had this problem before. sudo has never failed me until now.
[15:16] <ruan> ray9na: what are you trying to do though?
[15:16] <ubuntu> Pici: thank you. i will look at that
[15:17] <ray9na> My original question: Hi, I have a strange thing that started yesterday. My update has some items that will not select. If they're the only things in the list, they're grey. I'm running Lucid LTS on an Acer Aspire One. http://i.imgur.com/fuBAf.png
[15:17] <tensorpudding> ray9na: try 'sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude upgrade' in the terminal, see what that does
[15:17] <tensorpudding> ray9na: it might be that these updates are being held back for some odd reason
[15:17] <ubuntu> Pici: that wont work for me since i dont have a cd-rom. I need one i can install to a flash drive
[15:18] <walraven_> try to stop 3rd-party invites in package installer
[15:18] <ubuntu> Pici: or can i use the pendrive installer to install that?
[15:18] <Pici> ubuntu: You should be able to.
[15:18] <ray9na> Then why are they showing? That's just weird.
[15:18] <ubuntu> and then run it from the flash drive like i am currently doing
[15:18] <ray9na> aptitude? not apt-get?
[15:18] <ruan> !info aptitude
[15:18] <walraven_> if you're not sure about the pendrive don't
[15:18] <Cryovat> Hey, I need to shrink my root partition. If I boot to the live CD and run gparted, can that safely shrink it?
[15:18] <walraven_> use lubuntu-cd works fine i'm with 11.4
[15:19] <ruan> Cryovat: yes
[15:19] <tensorpudding> Cryovat: reasonably safely
[15:19] <tensorpudding> they still say that you should backup before resizing partitions, but it's never bitten me
[15:20] <Cryovat> If the drive is fragmented and some stuff is in the parts I want to free, will gparted move that to the "safe" part?
[15:20] <atlef> Cryovat: always remember, do a backup
[15:20] <ruan> partitioning has about a 96%+- success rate i guess
[15:20] <d3vic3> ubuntu: http://ubuntuliving.blogspot.com/2008/06/minimalist-ubuntu.html
[15:20] <Cryovat> Ok, thank you :)
[15:20] <walraven_> later
[15:20] <_UsUrPeR_> hey all
[15:20] <walraven_> quit
[15:20] <_UsUrPeR_> can somebody tell me how to use apt to revert my version of firefox to something older?
[15:21] <ruan> _UsUrPeR_: which one are you currently running?
[15:21] <Torbenlars> #
[15:21] <fracchia> hello people, i need and advice. i'm looking for agood video contact sheet creator that scans a given dir and sub dirs read the movies in it and makes the contact heet with proper file names, it is about an hour i'm googling around but i just found one btu the server to download it is down. any clues?
[15:21] <_UsUrPeR_> ruan: 3.6.16
[15:21] <tensorpudding> _UsUrPeR_: if you're running the firefox that is in the main repos, there isn't a version to revert to
[15:21] <_UsUrPeR_> oh, bummer. So I have to install it manually?
[15:21] <ray9na> tensorpudding: I run both commands together? 'sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude upgrade'
[15:21] <v0lksman> anyone else having problems with libimobiledevice update?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/590273/
[15:22] <ray9na> (sans quotes)
[15:22] <v0lksman> should I just remove libimobiledevice and re-install it?
[15:22] <jwtiyar> while upgrading to from 10.4 lts to 10.10 if interenet connection lost , will downoading again from zero point?
[15:22] <tensorpudding> ray9na: when you have the semicolon in there, it makes two commands on one line, you don't have to do it that way though
[15:22] <groundup> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1699113 I also found this but I don't see anything wrong in the order
[15:22] <ray9na> okay, thanks :)
[15:23] <tensorpudding> _UsUrPeR_: or reconsider why you're wanting to revert
[15:23] <ray9na> so...what am i updating and upgrading?
[15:23] <Roasted_> Question - if I have Ubuntu with two NICs, and I have DHCP running on NIC A - is there ANY possibility that an IP address can be handed out to other users on the network that are connected to NIC B?
[15:23] <_UsUrPeR_> tensorpudding: I am reverting in order to test some changes to firefox
[15:23] <tuxx-> Roasted_: only if your dhcp server has a configuration for the subnet on NIC B.
[15:23] <ttiicc> kan man fråga angående konfiguration av exim4 för mutt i denna ubuntu channel?
[15:23] <_UsUrPeR_> I made some config changes, as well as changed some stuff in firefox.js and have added a couple extensions, and I want to be sure that an update won't ruin them
[15:23] <tensorpudding> ray9na: aptitude update does what the "checking for updates" does, essentially
[15:24] <groundup> So, how do I edit the boot order? I went in to my BIOS screen and checked. It shows one hard drive.
[15:24] <ray9na> tensorpudding: and the upgrade?
[15:24] <jjp_> Roasted: or you can bridge your interfaces; dunno how to do this through network manager though
[15:24] <tensorpudding> ray9na: it installs the updates
[15:24] <Roasted_> tuxx-, hmm... My setup goes like this - Thin clients on 192.168.x.x network on NIC A via DHCP from Ubuntu, and NIC B = static 10.52.x.x IP with the rest of the internal network. There's already a DHCP server in the 10.52 area so I just want to make sure the DHCP server on Ubuntu DOES NOT handle out IPs
[15:24] <ray9na> ah! i think i had a lightbulb moment
[15:24] <tensorpudding> ray9na: that part might end up installing the updates that you couldn't install before, or (more likely) will tell you why you can't in detail
[15:25] <mithran> hi, how do I copy the text from a putty session and paste it to gedit?
[15:25] <tuxx-> Roasted_: well, if your dhcp server doesnt have configuration for the 10.52.x.x subnet, it wont give out ipadresses to that interface.
[15:26] <tensorpudding> mithran: select the text using the cursorand then middle-click paste
[15:26] <jjp_> Roaster: dhcpd can listen on specified interfaces
[15:26] <siddhantchd> anyone here who can help
[15:26] <fracchia> hello people, i need and advice. i'm looking for agood video contact sheet creator that scans a given dir and sub dirs read the movies in it and makes the contact heet with proper file names, it is about an hour i'm googling around but i just found one btu the server to download it is down. any clues?
[15:26] <ray9na> tensorpudding: "The 'upgrade' command is deprecated; use 'safe-upgrade' instead."
[15:26] <Roasted_> tuxx-, what kind of configuration are you talking about, exactly? Would I have to put all of the 10.52.x.x info with the gateway and such in the network file on the DHCP NIC for it to hand out IPs in the 10.52 era?
[15:26] <uhon> hi. I'm setting up a testing-Server (maverick) for our web-project. For testing with phpunit i need the php-cli version 5.2.6 to have the same preconditions as on our production-server (debian-lenny). Can you tell me the easiest way to install php-5.2.6-cli. is there any apt-channel?
[15:27] <ray9na> and it does list the three packages as "have been kept back"
[15:27] <roxan> I don't like part of my window in adjacent workspace. There is a setting in compiz to prevent such. But I can't recall it now. Any help would be much appreciated.

[15:27] <d3vic3> !info gnucash
[15:27] <d3vic3> !info gnucash | siddhantchd
[15:27] <iceroot> jwtiyar: only packages which are not fully downloaded
[15:27] <mithran> tensorpudding: wow thanks, was having a lot of trouble with that :), is there some way to configure it to right click paste?
[15:28] <tensorpudding> uhon: probably you have to install from source to get the exact version, but even then it won't be totally exact because the debian package is surely slightly patched
[15:28] <groundup> tensorpudding: on my bios load screen I see "Port 00: {name} sata-2, hard disk,  250 GB [RAID HDD]; Port 01: {name} sata-1, cd-r/dvd-r"
[15:28] <jwtiyar> iceroot, it download again from the package that the connection has been lost?
[15:28] <siddhantchd> any other that u can suggest
[15:29] <uhon> tensorpudding: is there any chance to get the debian package running?
[15:29] <iceroot> jwtiyar: yes but again the complete packages but nit the packages before
[15:29] <tensorpudding> uhon: probably not, since it was built against debian package versions
[15:29] <iceroot> jwtiyar: again the last packages but not the packages before
[15:29] <uhon> tensorpudding: ok, so i would have to compile the cli-version myself?
[15:29] <tensorpudding> uhon: if you require that level of similarity in your test environment you might consider using debian for it
[15:30] <jwtiyar> iceroot, i dont understand
[15:30] <uhon> tensorpudding: actually i'd be happy if i could at least go with any php5.2 version
[15:30] <jwtiyar> iceroot, if its %50 will download from %50 isn't it?
[15:30] <tensorpudding> uhon: you'd probably want to do 'apt-get source --build-deps php5-cli' or whatever the name of the package is
[15:31] <jwtiyar> iceroot, if its stopped in %50 will download from %50 isn't it?
[15:31] <iceroot> jwtiyar: you upgrade 10 packages, at the 6. packages the connection is lost. so in the next step its downloading package 6 again and then 7-10 but not 1-5
[15:31] <tensorpudding> this command installs all the packages needed to build the source
[15:31] <jwtiyar> iceroot, ahh ok i got it thanks again\
[15:31] <tensorpudding> these should be the same between the version you want and the version in ubuntu
[15:31] <uhon> tensorpudding: i'm not familliar with this command. what do i get from that? and should i run it on the debian machine?
[15:32] <iceroot> jwtiyar: the finished packages are in /var/cache/apt/archives/
[15:32] <ray9na> tensorpudding: The following packages have been kept back: libavformat52{a} libpostproc51{a} libswscale0{a}  The following packages will be REMOVED: linux-headers-2.6.32-21{u} linux-headers-2.6.32-21-generic{u}
[15:32] <m|kael> how do i configure apache in ubuntu server to make /public_html dir in every users home dir to be accessable through server.com/~username ?the apache config confuse me alot :/
[15:32]  * d3vic3 away on a task... brb
[15:32] <iceroot> m|kael: just enable the module "mod_userdir"
[15:32] <ray9na> I'm not used to updates *removing* things :-P
[15:33] <iceroot> m|kael: imo its "sudo a2enable mod_userdir"
[15:33] <m|kael> iceroot: let me try
[15:33] <tensorpudding> uhon: why would you want to run it on the debian machine?
[15:33] <tensorpudding> uhon: aren't you building php on the ubuntu one?
[15:33] <iceroot> m|kael: "sudo a2enmod userdir"
[15:33] <mohamez> hello guys i have ia problem with ubuntu 10.10 can someone help me ?
[15:33] <iceroot> m|kael: after that restart apache
[15:33] <kermit> should i worry about register dumps referring to 'page allocation failure'?
[15:33] <iceroot> !details | mohamez
[15:34] <mohamez> ok
[15:34] <uhon> tensorpudding: sure i am, but when i do the command above, i'd fetch the sources for the actual ubuntu php5-cli version which is 5.3.3. or did i get something wrong?=
[15:34] <tensorpudding> ray9na: that means that in its wisdom apt has decided you can't install the updates yet for some reason, also that it wants to remove some old kernels
[15:34] <fracchia> hello people, i need and advice. i'm looking for agood video contact sheet creator that scans a given dir and sub dirs read the movies in it and makes the contact heet with proper file names, it is about an hour i'm googling around but i just found one btu the server to download it is down. any clues? running ubuntu 10.10
[15:34] <mohamez> my problem r the screen resolution
[15:35] <tensorpudding> uhon: that command i gave you should install the packages needed to build th 5.3.3 source package, which are what you probably need to install the source you want
[15:35] <ray9na> Okay, thanks. :) I guess this is how Ubuntu keeps itself nice and trim?
[15:36] <groundup> I don't think I'm even getting to grub
[15:36] <tensorpudding> uhon: oh whoops!
[15:36] <tensorpudding> that's the wrong command
[15:36] <mohamez> hey can someone help me ?
[15:36] <tensorpudding> i was confusing it with a different one
[15:36] <uhon> tensorpudding: allright, so that command resolves all the packages i need to build my own version of php? but the source which i actually compile should be 5.2?
[15:36] <m|kael> iceroot: i restart apache with "service apache2 restart" correct?
[15:36] <ray9na> Thanks for helping me figure things out, tensorpudding! Bye!
[15:36] <tensorpudding> uhon: you want apt-get build-dep
[15:36] <tensorpudding> uhon: you are right, that one compiles a source package...
[15:37] <iceroot> m|kael: + sudo, yes
[15:37] <tensorpudding> uhon: yes
[15:38] <m|kael> iceroot: do i have to configure it somehow?
[15:38] <iceroot> m|kael: normally not
[15:38] <tensorpudding> uhon: you want to get the source from the debian source package, and build that (but by hand insteading of using the dpkg tools since that's going to not work since it assumes that you're using debian)
[15:38] <tensorpudding> that way you get the same version as the debian one
[15:39] <m|kael> iceroot: the dir should be /home/mikael/public_html right?
[15:39] <iceroot> m|kael: correct and can be reached by http://localhost/~mikael
[15:39] <uhon> tensorpudding: allright i will try that. never compiled php myself. let's try ;)
[15:39] <marlun> How would I setup a forward using iptables so that connection against localhost:1433 is redirected to <IP_ADDRESS>:1433 when the destination is not inside a NAT but external?
[15:40] <m|kael> iceroot: i get a forbidden error in apache when i try that link tho :/ thus why i ask if i had to configure it
[15:40] <iceroot> m|kael: who is the owner of that dir?
[15:40] <iceroot> m|kael: can apache read that dir?
[15:40] <pajero> m|kael: where are you from
[15:40] <m|kael> pajero: sweden
[15:41] <m|kael> iceroot: the user mikael is owner of the dir
[15:41] <iceroot> m|kael: and how can read that dir?

[15:49]  * d3vic3 back again
[15:49] <iceroot> m|kael: ok apache is not using the mod_userdir correctly
[15:50] <LarsTorben> ok
[15:50] <iceroot> m|kael: you used "sudo a2enmod userdir"?
[15:50] <LarsTorben> ljsoftnet: i wanted you to ask if LTS are better or not to use LTS?
[15:50] <m|kael> iceroot: yep, exactly that
[15:50] <d3vic3> m|kael: chmod -R 775 ~/public_html and chgrp -R www-data ~/publi_html
[15:50] <JDivision> Hi everyone
[15:50] <tsimpson> m|kael: did you set "UserDir public_help" in the apache config?
[15:51] <m|kael> tsimpson: nope, i have not opened the configs yet
[15:51] <iceroot> m|kael: public_html not public_help
[15:51] <ljsoftnet> LarsTorben im satisfied with LTS, running the newest releases, would mean you get the latest versions of software
[15:51] <d3vic3> m|kael: just set the access rights thing and tell me what you get
[15:52] <iceroot> d3vic3: its not a rights-problem
[15:52] <tsimpson> iceroot: yeah
[15:52] <tsimpson> m|kael: well it should default to that anyway, from /etc/apache2/mods-available/userdir.conf
[15:52] <LarsTorben> ljsoftnet: i yesterday installed  UBUNTU 10.10 but support ends so soon
[15:52] <LarsTorben> so i asked if the lts are better :)
[15:52] <iceroot> LarsTorben: if you want long term support, yes
[15:52] <tsimpson> m|kael: what are the permissions for ~ and ~/public_html?
[15:52] <LarsTorben> what is on LTS good ?
[15:52] <m|kael> tsimpson: the dir is ~/public_html
[15:52] <LarsTorben> only the long support ? or more stability tooo ?
[15:53] <iceroot> LarsTorben: long term support is the good thing about it
[15:53] <tsimpson> m|kael: yeah, I know
[15:53] <ljsoftnet> LarsTorben yeah
[15:53] <m|kael> tsimpson: rights to ~ is unchanged from default, rights to ~/public_html is 755
[15:53] <LarsTorben> more stability too ?
[15:53] <iceroot> LarsTorben: and its more stable because there are no "silly" tests for gnome3 and other things which came in the normal releases
[15:53] <Pici> LarsTorben: You've asked this same question at least two times today at at least once yesterday. How many times do we need to answer it for you?

[16:01] <jink> chmod -R with absolute permissions is almost always wrong.  And there's usually no need to chgrp public_html to www-data.

[16:02] <minijupe> d3vic3: awesome, thanks
[16:02] <d3vic3> jink: it's just for ~/public_html and set for www-data group unless you are an advanced user so you may use ACLs :)

[16:03] <m|kael> d3vic3: done and done, still getting the forbidden message tho
[16:04] <jink> d3vic3: chmod -R 775 will make all your files executable, too.  And why do they need to be owned by the www-data group?  Apache can read them just fine if you have o+r ... ?
[16:04] <m|kael> d3vic3: do i have to chmod ~ with 755 too?
[16:05] <d3vic3> jink: got the same problem and solved it with enabling user_dir and ACL things :)

[16:16] <tehnef> fracchia: http://freshmeat.net/projects/video-contact-sheet/
[16:17] <fracchia> tehnef: the download button redirect to the lik i told u
[16:18] <sirdeiu> enterneo: try ip addr help, more exactly ip addr del IFADDR dev STRING
[16:19] <gnaruag> i am having problem with changing X engine files
[16:19] <gnaruag> in 10.10
[16:19] <gnaruag> anybody knows how to change resolution ?
[16:20] <fruitbag> I wanted to slice the boot record of a floppy disk and put it unto a USB stick.
[16:20] <ohsix> gnaruag: theres an applet to do it in System -> Preferences
[16:21] <JDivision> Anyone dealing with my request (Phone connected in USB to Lynx -64. Need the phone to be seen as ACM0 but it is detected as usbx.... How do I get the ACM0 ?) Do I need to add more information ?
[16:21] <fracchia> thenef: every sites with that program redirect to the dead link, i think i need another software but can't find anything
[16:22] <groundup> tehnef: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10645044&postcount=12 that doesn't match what that is telling me at all.
[16:22] <enterneo> sirdeiu: interesting, now i don't see the ipv4 address (seems the deletion worked) but now i cannot ping6 as well :-S
[16:23] <sirdeiu> enterneo: was ping6 working before ?
[16:23] <enterneo> yes
[16:24] <enterneo> if i do /etc/init.d/networking restart, both ping and ping6 work again
[16:24] <sirdeiu> whats the ipv4 addr and ipv6 ?
[16:24] <enterneo> and i get back the ipv4 address, but when i delete it using ip addr del, both stop working
[16:24] <sirdeiu> did you manually conf them in the interfaces ?
[16:24] <zxiest> Hello
[16:25] <zxiest> How can I execute a list of commands I have in a file on a remote server?
[16:25] <zxiest> after ssh ...
[16:25] <llutz> zxiest: ssh user@host sh cmd.list
[16:25] <sirdeiu> zxiest: if said file is a script, try bash file
[16:26] <zxiest> llutz I think this is what I'm looking for ..
[16:26] <Paieement> hi
[16:26] <enterneo> sirdeiu: yes, it's a xen VM
[16:26] <enterneo> \
[16:26] <zxiest> llutz should I place my commands after sh ? How do I need to separate them?
[16:26] <enterneo> sirdeiu: earlier conf: http://pastebin.com/7CzhY0Tu (both IPv4 and IPv6 working)
[16:27] <llutz> zxiest: if they are in a file(script) just call it with "sh file"
[16:27] <Ddorda> hey guys, i wish to scan with my scanner which is connected to another PC in the network. is it possible to do so with simple-scan?
[16:27] <sirdeiu> enterneo: if you're goal is to use ipv6 ...try binding only on ipv6 address ?
[16:27] <enterneo> as in?
[16:28] <zxiest> llutz they're not on a file on the server
[16:28] <zxiest> llutz they're on my local computer
[16:28] <groundup> Updated with more information. I can't figure this out.
[16:29] <zxiest> sirdeiu thanks :-) The commands are in a file on my computer.
[16:29] <llutz> zxiest: ssh user@host command1; command2 ; command3                  or ssh user@host cmd1 && cmd2 && cmd3           the latter will run cmd2 only if cmd1 succeeds, the first will run it in any case
[16:30] <zxiest> llutz perfect!
[16:30] <jink> llutz: You might want to quote some of that, unless you want to run command2 etc locally. :)
[16:30] <Paieement> hi people. do you use 10.04 or 10.10?
[16:30] <zxiest> llutz and how can I return from ssh ?
[16:30] <zxiest> exit?
[16:30] <llutz> jink: right you are
[16:30] <Fearless13> llutz: right he is.
[16:31] <sirdeiu> enterneo: binding on ipv6, as in specifying an option on your service to only use ipv6 address
[16:32] <llutz> zxiest: the command above won't log you in, it just runs those commands and exits
[16:32] <zxiest> llutz I see :-) Thanks
[16:32] <llutz> zxiest: if you already have a script, transfer it to the remote-host and run it from there. easier
[16:33] <zxiest> llutz I'm creating a deploy script for my code...
[16:34] <zxiest> llutz The code is on my computer. The script is tarring, then I need to ssh -i it. Create dir, and then scp it ..

[16:34] <Jemt> Hi. Where do I create a .desktop file to make a shortcut available to all users (on the Desktop) ?
[16:34] <zxiest> I already have everything in place.. I just needed to know how to execute some of the commands after I ssh into the server
[16:36] <cha0s2358> can anyone help me with uninstalling the unity desktop manager and reinstalling gnome?
[16:36] <toad> hey
[16:37] <JDivision> Here's my request again: Phone connected in USB to Lynx -64. Need the phone to be seen as ACM0 but it is detected as usbx.... How do I get the ACM0 ? Do I need to add more information ?
[16:37] <lasefun> ciao
[16:37] <lasefun> !list
[16:37] <ayecee> JDivision: -64 appears where?
[16:38] <JDivision> What do you mean ? Lynx 64-bit
[16:38] <ayecee> JDivision: rather, I don't understand that sentence, what does "Phone connected in USB to Lynx -64" mean?
[16:38] <ayecee> lynx, the web browser?
[16:38] <JDivision> Sorry about my English
[16:38] <JDivision> I plug a phone in USB and it is seen as usb0. I need it to be seen as /dev/ACM0
[16:39] <EvilPhoenix> ayecee:  i think he's trying to USB tether his phone and computer
[16:39] <ayecee> JDivision: ttyACM0, rather?
[16:39] <ayecee> let's see..
[16:39] <JDivision> I checked and found out that the cdc_acm mod was not loaded, so I did a modprobe and I can see it now. but my phone is still seen as usb0
[16:40] <JDivision> Right. sorry again
[16:40] <ayecee> I guess the phone is not being seen as an ACM device..
[16:40] <EvilPhoenix> ^
[16:40] <sirdeiu> cha0s2358: you could Logout from your (current?) unity session and at the GDM login screen select Ubuntu Desktop Edition again
[16:40] <JDivision> Exactly
[16:40] <FuzzyFox0> hey all
[16:40] <sirdeiu> hi
[16:40] <ayecee> JDivision: if you make a symlink from ttyACM0 to ttyUSB0, does it work that way?
[16:40] <FuzzyFox0> I would like to print every file in a dir
[16:40] <FuzzyFox0> is there a quick way?
[16:40] <FuzzyFox0> (note this needs to be recursive)
[16:41] <JDivision> ayecee : Let me try that
[16:41] <ayecee> FunnyLookinHat: find . -type f -exec cat {} \;
[16:41] <cha0s2358> sirdeiu, what do you mean log out
[16:41] <FunnyLookinHat> ayecee, BLARRGGGGG - YOU HAVE AWOKEN ME WITH YOUR FALSE PING
[16:41] <Tobi2> неподскажите как можно открить вот етот файл /etc/X11/xorg.conf  Правами рута?
[16:41] <zertyui> hello i got this error with postfix http://paste.ubuntu.com/590313/
[16:41] <Paieement> hi people. do you use 10.04 or 10.10?
[16:41] <kdub> !ru | Tobi2
[16:41] <FunnyLookinHat> FuzzyFox0, check out what ayecee said above : )
[16:41] <sirdeiu> Chappy-san:  heh, I mean end your current session
[16:42] <ayecee> FuzzyFox0: find . -type f -exec cat {} \;
[16:42] <zertyui> we use 11.04 Paieement
[16:42] <ayecee> FunnyLookinHat: pardon me!
[16:42] <sirdeiu> Chappy-san: sorry... was the cha guys that left
[16:42] <FunnyLookinHat> ayecee, ;)
[16:42] <zertyui> ok je te pardonne ayecee
[16:42] <zertyui> hahah
[16:43] <zertyui> well who know about postfix ?
[16:43] <ayecee> zertyui: i've heard it's a mail server. do you want to know something more specific about it?
[16:43] <zertyui> i got this error with postfix : http://paste.ubuntu.com/590313/
[16:43] <zertyui> i don't know what to do ?
[16:44] <ayecee> zertyui: um. these errors look like they're from dovecot, not postfix
[16:44] <EvilPhoenix> zertyui:  yeah, those are from dovecot, and not postfix
[16:45] <llutz> zertyui: you pasted junk into your dovecot.conf
[16:45] <zertyui> yeah can't understand what's going on
[16:45] <toad> hey
[16:45] <EvilPhoenix> zertyui:  llutz has it right, your config file is junk right there
[16:45] <EvilPhoenix> zertyui:  the warnings denote obsolete configuration parameters
[16:45] <toad> How can I easily search for a file via the shell?
[16:45] <ayecee> zertyui: the error is pretty clear too. your dovecot.conf enables ssl, but doesn't specify a cert file to use.
[16:45] <ayecee> toad: with find
[16:45] <Kartagis> can someone help me with dovecot please?
[16:45] <EvilPhoenix> zertyui:  the fatal error is ssl being enabled, but you dont have a cert for it to use
[16:45] <toad> o 'find' command?
[16:45] <toad> awesome thanks
[16:46] <Kartagis> #dovecot isn't answering
[16:46] <zertyui> but i generate  ssl certification
[16:46] <shcherbak> toad: locate find
[16:46] <Pici> Kartagis: You can try #ubuntu-server
[16:46] <JDivision> ayecee : Nope. I guess it's already linked to ttyusb0.... Can I "reset" this to try again ?
[16:46] <llutz> zertyui: you have to specify the crt with path
[16:46] <leg3nd> toad, find takes forever
[16:46] <toad> locate find?
[16:46] <toad> what about grep?
[16:47] <leg3nd> toad, if you run 'updatedb' then use the 'locate' command its much faster
[16:47] <toad> does grep search names?
[16:47] <zertyui> in which line ?
[16:47] <sirdeiu> zertyui: after the line ssl = yes, in your dovecot.conf, add: ssl_cert = /etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = /etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem (replace with actual path/to/generated ssl)
[16:47] <shcherbak> toad: locate filenameorpartofit
[16:47] <toad> cool
[16:47] <leg3nd> toad, grep filters your output
[16:47] <toad> do I have to be in the directory of the file?
[16:47] <toad> or does it search all lower dirs
[16:47] <shcherbak> toad: ls ~ | grep D
[16:47] <toad> o it searches evertything
[16:47] <toad> neat
[16:47] <milamber> !who | toad
[16:47] <zertyui> ok let me check that one
[16:48] <llutz> zertyui: a line like "ssl_cert_file = /etc/ssl/certs/yourcert.pem"
[16:48] <leg3nd> toad, no locate is recursive, but if you havnt ran 'updatedb' and you try it wont be up to date
[16:48] <llutz> zertyui: grep ssl_cert /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
[16:48] <toad> I have no update.file
[16:48] <toad> apparently
[16:48] <toad> updatedb: can not open a temporary file for `/var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db'
[16:48] <leg3nd> toad, yea.... so run updatedb...
[16:48] <toad> I did
[16:48] <toad> that was the result
[16:48] <leg3nd> toad, sudo updatedb?
[16:49] <shcherbak> toad: sudo may help
[16:49] <h4xx0r_> can anyone help me installing Conky?
[16:49] <h4xx0r_> i've tried already too many times
[16:49] <toad> does it give confirmation of updating?
[16:49] <leg3nd> toad, naw it will take a sec
[16:49] <toad> cause it just asked for pw then went to next line
[16:49] <shcherbak> h4xx0r_: sudo apt-get install conky#
[16:49] <h4xx0r_> I am looking to install the latest version, but I dont find it in the ubuntu software center
[16:49] <leg3nd> toad, if its ~300GB give it mabey 2min
[16:49] <h4xx0r_> nah, that command downloads 1.8.0
[16:49] <h4xx0r_> I want 1.8.1
[16:49] <h4xx0r_> available at conky's website
[16:49] <h4xx0r_> in a tar.gz package
[16:50] <zertyui> ok
[16:50] <h4xx0r_> but I dont know what to do further :S
[16:50] <leg3nd> h4xx0r_, download source? compile it?
[16:50] <leg3nd> h4xx0r_, id start with the README/INSTALL files.
[16:50] <aeon-ltd> h4xx0r_: http://conky.sourceforge.net/
[16:50] <h4xx0r_> never done that, and dont know how to do that
[16:50] <shcherbak> h4xx0r_: Check version for natty, or get source (or live with current version)
[16:50] <h4xx0r_> natty?
[16:50] <leg3nd> h4xx0r_,  sudo apt-get build-dep conky,    tar xvf conky.tar.gz, cd into the directory, and read the INSTALL file.
[16:51] <don_jr> Okay, I have a pretty fresh install, I have my proper nvidia drivers I'm fairly sure, I'm trying to turn on compiz and after installing compizconfig-settings-manager and running compiz --replace when I boot up I get to my desktop and there are no top or bottom task bars and still no compositing enabled. I"m not sure what to try next.
[16:51] <shcherbak> h4xx0r_: Next release of Ubuntu (11.04)
[16:51] <h4xx0r_> lol
[16:51] <h4xx0r_> yea I know
[16:51] <h4xx0r_> :P
[16:51] <h4xx0r_> but its in beta now I guess?
[16:51] <FloodBot3> h4xx0r_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:51] <zxiest> How can I chmod multiple files?
[16:51] <toad> leg3nd, can I sort ls?
[16:51] <toad> whats the option
[16:51] <tsimpson> zxiest: put multiple files on the command line
[16:51] <ruan> zxiest: chmod file1 file2   perhaps?
[16:51] <leg3nd> toad, try  'man sort'
[16:52] <leg3nd> toad,  ;)
[16:52] <zxiest> ruan perhaps?
[16:52] <ruan> zxiest: havent tried it. will check now
[16:52] <toad> so how do I use that with ls?
[16:52] <toad> sort ls -M?
[16:52] <zxiest> ruan haha .. I thought you were being sarcastic
[16:53] <Guest50778> .
[16:53] <tsimpson> toad: ls is sorted alphabetically by default
[16:53] <leg3nd> toad, no when your combining commands in linux you use   |
[16:53] <leg3nd> toad, so  ' ls -la | sort  '
[16:53] <leg3nd> toad, something along those lines
[16:53] <zxiest> ruan yup... It;s like you said =)
[16:54] <toad> ok
[16:54] <ayecee> toad: ls has some sort options of its own, they're described in the ls manpage
[16:54] <toad> o I was looking threw it didnt see anything maybe I missed it
[16:54] <toad> leg3nd, does it matter which is first?
[16:54] <researcher123> is there a downloader which can download all .pdf from a free ebook site?
[16:55] <zertyui> ssl = yes is commented have i to uncomment that one ? llutz
[16:55] <leg3nd> toad, umm it kinda depends on what your doing, but in that case yes
[16:55] <shcherbak> researcher123: wget or curl
[16:55] <ruan> researcher123: flashgot
[16:55] <ruan> for firefox
[16:55] <leg3nd> toad, its taking the output of your ls, using the "pipe" to filter the output through sort.
[16:55] <ayecee> zertyui: uncomment it and set it to no, maybe
[16:55] <toad> ah
[16:55] <toad> right
[16:56] <toad> so it does matter
[16:56] <toad> I need to learn more about pipes
[16:56] <waldir> mithran: were you able to config apache correctly?
[16:56] <leg3nd> toad, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommandlineHowto
[16:56] <researcher123> shcherbak: ruan: I tried flashgot does not download all available .pdf. Am I making any error?
[16:56] <leg3nd> toad, some good information on piping and general linux CLI usage in there
[16:57] <toad> oh you know what, I read most of that and stopped before the 'pipes' section
[16:57] <toad> :P
[16:57] <ruan> researcher123: did you right click the page and click 'flashgot all' ?
[16:57] <JDivision> ayecee : Did you see my answer ? Any other ideas ?
[16:57] <llutz> zertyui: are you sure it isn't enabled somewhere else? your paste states "ssl enabled"
[16:58] <mithran> waldir: I managed to get phpsysinfo working properly, but it responds only to 'http://<ip>/phpsysinfo.php', I am trying to make the webpage load for 'http://<ip>', thanks a lot for the help, Ive learnt a lot!!
[16:58] <leg3nd> toad, piping is probably the best thing about linux in my opinion, it allows for amazing versatility and endless possibilities.
[16:58] <researcher123> ruan: Yes I did that
[16:58] <researcher123> ruan: may be I need to try properly
[16:58] <ruan> researcher123: is wget chosen as a downloader?
[16:58] <mithran> waldir: any pointer?
[16:58] <shcherbak> researcher123: All free .pdf, is sort of task, test wget <addressofsinglepdf>, look how book are addressse (check if it is possible to combine curl and wget into loop).
[16:58] <ayecee> JDivision: what's the device id? should be in the output of "lsusb", in the format xxxx:xxxx
[16:58] <waldir> mithran: that's all I know about setting up a server on ubuntu, sorry
[16:58] <researcher123> ruan: I never tried wget
[16:59] <iderik> How come my symlink gets broken when I move it away from the source's dir? :/ i though the purpose of a link was that i could keep it in another dir than the source
[16:59] <waldir> I note these stuff down for future reference :)
[16:59] <researcher123> shcherbak: ok. let me try
[16:59] <zertyui> no, this line : ssl = yes was commented
[16:59] <mithran> waldir: thanks a lot, I think i know enough to google and figure it out now
[16:59] <mithran> :)
[16:59] <waldir> mithran: yay :D
[16:59] <shcherbak> researcher123: pass me linky so can have a peek, and tell you if it is possible to do it fast.
[17:00] <zertyui> after uncommenting this line and set to no i got this now : http://paste.ubuntu.com/590324/ llutz
[17:00] <researcher123> shcherbak: ok. I just installed flashgot but cant find from where to run
[17:00] <JDivision> ayecee : Here is the output : Bus 001 Device 021: ID 0bb4:0ca2 High Tech Computer Corp.
[17:01] <ayecee> zertyui: it looks like dovecot started successfully.
[17:01] <ruan> researcher123: run what exactly?
[17:01] <sirdeiu> zertyui: use this guide to configure Dovecot: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Dovecot
[17:01] <llutz> zertyui: check your config, it contains junk (line 718++)
[17:01] <timsom> hello
[17:01] <timsom> is there who work for dell
[17:01] <researcher123> ruan: want to run flashgot
[17:01] <sirdeiu> you have several obsolete settings in you dovecot.conf
[17:01] <iderik> After doing this command: ln -s pic1.jpg pic2.jpg | mv pic2.jpg /home/anotherdir/pic2.jpg
[17:01] <iderik> the symlinks demands to be thrown in trash because its broken
[17:01] <ruan> researcher123: it's a firefox addon so it's accessible from addons > flashgot > preferences
[17:01] <Pici> timsom: This is all community provided volunteer support.
[17:01] <iderik> how come? :S
[17:02] <ayecee> iderik: why would you pipe ln to mv?
[17:02] <researcher123> ruan: ok.thanks
[17:02] <jink> iderik: The symlink links to ./pic2.jpg and it's no longer there, since you moved it.
[17:02] <iderik> ayecee: i didnt mean to pipe it, its just two diff commands which i run on two diff lines
[17:02] <Stereocaulon> magn3ts, you can do so at System => Settings => Shortcut Keys
[17:02] <ayecee> ah
[17:03] <leg3nd> iderik, instead of a pipe you could have used a semi-colon   ;
[17:03] <leg3nd> iderik, or even &&
[17:03] <ruan> yeah, && does the next command if the first was successful
[17:03] <iderik> leg3nd: oh, thanks :) && is great
[17:04] <ayecee> JDivision: does it work if you "mv /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/ttyACM0" after connecting it? I kind of wonder if it presents enough of an ACM profile to do that.
[17:04] <Swatkish> Hi To All :)
[17:04] <leg3nd> ruan, does semi-colon wait for command completion?
[17:04] <zertyui> fine one line was uncommented with this one             !             that's why i got that error
[17:04] <leg3nd> ruan, i know it represent a new line so id think so right?
[17:04] <Stereocaulon> hi Swatkish
[17:04] <JDivision> Ayecee : Trying
[17:04] <iderik> jink: i though pic1 is the source/original and pic2 is the shortcut
[17:04] <toad> linux is awesome I agree
[17:04] <ruan> leg3nd: yes
[17:04] <ruan> leg3nd: they both wait for completion
[17:04] <leg3nd> ruan, kk thnx
[17:05] <ayecee> JDivision: if it does do ACM, you might have to add the usb id to the ACM driver. Maybe more. I don't know how easy that would be.
[17:05] <Swatkish> where are you from <Stereocaulon>?
[17:05] <Stereocaulon> Swatkish, I'm from the Netherlands, why?
[17:05] <jink> iderik: Ok, erhm, either way.  A symlink is just a textfile, basically.  So it doesn't update to the new path or whatever.  It just contains whatever you put in there.  And if that's relative, it will remain relative to the directory it's in.
[17:05] <Swatkish> i'm just asking :)
[17:05] <kevin^> I'm from Macedonia
[17:05] <kevin^> how are you
[17:05] <kevin^> :D
[17:05] <ruan> !ot
[17:06] <iderik> jink: oh, so the path is not updated! so there is not possible to move symlinks then
[17:06] <JDivision> Ayecee : Nope (no such file or directory) ACM0 is not created....
[17:06] <iderik> jink: thanks for the help
[17:06] <Chris^^^> im from macedonia too
[17:06] <jink> iderik: No, not really.  At least not in the way you want to do it. :)
[17:06] <Swatkish> nice :) i'm from bulgaria :)
[17:06] <JDivision> The phone can be seen in ACM0 (it's the default behavior on forums I've checked...)
[17:06] <kevin^> oooo bulgaria
[17:07] <kevin^> yes yes i agree with Jdivision
[17:07] <JDivision> Ayecee : The phone can be seen in ACM0 (it's the default behavior on forums I've checked...)
[17:07] <iderik> jink: so there is a way?! tell me, please :D
[17:07] <JDivision> Good for you Kevin^ :)
[17:08] <jink> iderik: You could make a hard link if the files are on the same partition.  And relative links will still work if you move both the symlink and the target, for example.
[17:08] <Chris^^^> u dont even know what they talkin bout
[17:08] <Swatkish> yes yes i agree with kevin :)
[17:08] <Chris^^^> hahahah
[17:08] <gnaruag> i am having problem with changing X engine files
[17:08] <gnaruag>  in 10.10 , how to change resoultion of screen , System->preferences -> applet is not showing the desired resolution
[17:08] <gnaruag> ubuntu often plays with the file :(
[17:08] <JDivision> lol
[17:08] <Swatkish> and with you JDivision
[17:08] <groundup> I've gone everywhere looking to see why I get the blinking cursor issue.
[17:08] <ayecee> JDivision: maybe misunderstood. /dev/ttyUSB0 exists, right?
[17:09] <activeuser_> ?
[17:09] <JDivision> I figured.... :)
[17:09] <iderik> jink: oh thanks :)
[17:09] <kevin^> this is nice chat
[17:09] <kevin^> :D
[17:09] <JDivision> Ayecee : Yes, when I plug the phone, /dev/ttyusb0 is created on the fly
[17:09] <ayecee> JDivision: is it ttyusb0, or ttyUSB0 ?
[17:09] <Chris^^^> any quiz? pliiz
[17:10] <zertyui> thanks llutz
[17:10] <zertyui> welln do you know about mailutils ? llutz  i just send message using through mailutils
[17:11] <ruan> CHC: quiz?
[17:11] <zertyui> i don't know where to check the mail ?
[17:11] <ruan> oops
[17:11] <JohnHeikkila> Hey, when booted on a Live-CD, should I install Ubuntu on a USB stick from the Startup disk creator or the ordinary install?
[17:11] <JDivision> Ayecee : Let me check again...
[17:11] <ikonia> JohnHeikkila: up to you where you install it
[17:11] <Hazly> hye...
[17:12] <Photocopy> I'm getting a "Could not calculate the upgrade" error while upgrading to 11.04 beta. Any help?
[17:12] <ruan> !natty
[17:12] <Hazly> what are the diffrences between using WUBI and boot up/..
[17:12] <JohnHeikkila> ikonia, As I said, on a USB memory stick.
[17:12] <ruan> Hazly: you mean the difference between wubi and a regular install?
[17:12] <llutz> zertyui: what about mailutils?
[17:12] <Hazly> yes..
[17:13] <ruan> Hazly: a wubi installation depends on windows and has a .disk file
[17:13] <ikonia> JohnHeikkila: yes, and where you install it is up to you
[17:13] <ruan> Hazly: a regular installation doesn't and installs to the disk
[17:13] <sirdeiu> JohnHeikkila: Startup disk creator does just that..mainly transfers a install CD image to a USB device so you can install Ubuntu from that USB ... not on it
[17:13] <zertyui> i just send mail using through mailutils to an local user what i created during the installation of postfix
[17:13] <Hazly> oh,....
[17:13] <zertyui> how to check the mail if i received or not ?
[17:13] <ikonia> zertyui: type "mail" as that user
[17:14] <sirdeiu> zertyui: mail or -u user
[17:14] <JohnHeikkila> ikonia, I just figured to ask because I've installed several different ubuntu versions (format, install, format, etc) and not one has booted well - just the flashing _ symbol
[17:14] <JDivision> Ayecee : it says "usb0" when I connect it but can't find it in /dev..... (only usbmon0...)
[17:14] <crescendo> there is an OBNOXIOUS memory leak in indicator-applet.   wtffff.
[17:14] <JohnHeikkila> ikonia, From the Live-CD
[17:14] <Hazly> can anyone tell me ndiswrapper is using for what?
[17:14] <crescendo> effing 2.5GB
[17:15] <zertyui> so the correct command is mail -u user ?
[17:15] <ruan> crescendo: wow
[17:15] <llutz> zertyui: only if you want read "user"s mail, not your own
[17:15] <ruan> crescendo: restart the process
[17:15] <ayecee> JDivision: where does it say usb0?
[17:15] <sipior> crescendo: how did you determine that number?
[17:15] <sirdeiu> zertyui: if logged in with user, mail is enough ... if logged on as another user then you need mail -u
[17:15] <crescendo> ruan, yeah, already done. but this isn't the first time it's happened.
[17:15] <Hazly> ruan : can anyone tell me ndiswrapper is using for what?
[17:16] <crescendo> sipior, system monitor, memory column
[17:16] <ikonia> Hazly: it's used for "wrapping" windows device drivers for use with Linux
[17:16] <JDivision> Ayecee : in a notification pop-up window (like "Wired network activated")....
[17:16] <Hazly> ikonia : to make it work with ubuntu?
[17:16] <ikonia> Hazly: to try to
[17:16] <ayecee> JDivision: i'm lost on this one
[17:16] <DarkStar1> Has anyone got issues with the repos?
[17:16] <ruan> crescendo: indicator applet and not indicator applet-session?
[17:16] <ikonia> DarkStar1: which ones
[17:16] <ruan> DarkStar1: what type of issues
[17:16] <JDivision> Ayecee : Sorry....
[17:17] <crescendo> ruan, process name was "indicator-applet"
[17:17] <DarkStar1> I'm trying to get samba from the repos and gadmin tools
[17:17] <JohnHeikkila> !ask | DarkStar1
[17:17] <crescendo> ruan, I bet you're fingering session social networks as the cause. I don't use that, if you are.
[17:17] <JohnHeikkila> DarkStar1, Isn't it working?
[17:17] <sipior> crescendo: and what does "free" report?
[17:17] <JohnHeikkila> DarkStar1, Does it give an error message?
[17:17] <ruan> crescendo: that's the sound settings and mail applet
[17:18] <Alpha_Atom> Hey, I'm somewhat of a newbie to Ubuntu(and linux in general) i.e I installed it about half hour ago, but I've been presented with 294 updates, do I really need them all?
[17:18] <crescendo> sipior, I already terminated the process, so free would report erroneous or irrelevant data at this point.
[17:18] <Hazly> what are atheros patch for?
[17:18] <crescendo> ruan, yeah I know -- which is why it's so puzzling
[17:18] <toad> can I still boot into bt4 with ubuntu installed? would that cause any alarms
[17:18] <ruan> Alpha_Atom: it's normal to have many updates from a new install
[17:18] <JohnHeikkila> Alpha_Atom, They're not _necessary_ but may be useful with the bugfixes
[17:18] <stkrzysiak> alpha_atom, no, but unless you are runnign a production server, I wouldn't worry about installing them all.
[17:18] <Alpha_Atom> I'll just get them all then
[17:18] <sacarlson> anyone use bitcoin money on ubuntu before?
[17:18] <crescendo> sipior, ruan, after it re-launched itself it's only using 2.7MB.
[17:19] <JohnHeikkila> Alpha_Atom, Sure ;) Will save a lot of your hair ;)
[17:19] <Alpha_Atom> thanks btw :D
[17:19] <ruan> crescendo: personally i dont use that applet
[17:19] <sipior> crescendo: my suspicion is that there is no memory leak, and that you are misinterpreting the results from System Monitor. it would be interesting to see what free reports, once the problem reoccurs.
[17:19] <zertyui> mail -u
[17:19] <zertyui> not working
[17:19] <crescendo> ruan, yeah, I'm going to disable it.  It's not useful.
[17:19] <ruan> crescendo: i have physical volume control and a thunderbird shortcut
[17:19] <sirdeiu> zertyui: try "mail"

[17:29] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, also you can open synaptic/edit/fix broken packages/apply
[17:29] <milamber> ubuntu: i wasn't around when you originally brought up the problem you are having. can you be more specific when you say can't?
[17:30] <gnu84>  @sur: it has separated from GNOME Do. It's called Docky now.
[17:30] <JDivision> Last up : Anyone interested in helping me getting my PC to see an Android phone as ttyACM0 ?
[17:30] <ubuntu> blueskaj, i cant fix packages that are broken due to other packages not being configured (and no, dpkg --configure -a / dpkg-reconfigure <package_name> doesn't work either)
[17:31] <JohnHeikkila> ubuntu: Which packages are broken?
[17:31] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, did yo actually try snaptic?
[17:31] <ubuntu> milamber: i have 17 different packages from a linux kernel upgrade, to fuse, to gdm, to xserver-xorg that rely on other packages in the same family that aren't configured
[17:32] <ubuntu> blueskaj, yes. synaptic and apt and the update manager. all fail
[17:32] <boxybrown> does update-notifier also handle commandline notification of updates?
[17:32] <eoss> how i know the security updates i download arent backdoors or viruses
[17:32] <milamber> ubuntu: sudo apt-get clean && sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a
[17:32] <boxybrown> one of my servers has a gui and whenever i login from the commandline, it displays the packages that need updating
[17:32] <boxybrown> i'd like this functionality on other servers without needing to install a gui
[17:32] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, make sure you have all the repos enabled in your package manager too , like partners etc
[17:33] <ubuntu> ok, i will try that milamber

[17:45] <milamber> akashm1990: what kind of terminal are you talking about?

[17:48] <akashm1990> milamber, I'm guessing mine is the 1st type
