[03:28] <tammie> Jkessler: all directories are included by default, but the locate database is only updated daily. To force an update  of the db use 'sudo updatedb'
[03:28] <Hilikus> i have my top gnome panel on my right screen and my bottom gnome panel (taskbar) on the left. how do i move the top one to the left screen?
[03:28] <majuk> ldlework: lol, I don't really understand what you're talking about. You mean you want to blank the disc?
[03:28] <Jkessler> tammie:  i built a fileserver for a company and they have one drive for the system, one for their data and one for a daily rsync backup, just in case
[03:28] <ldlework> majuk, I believe so =x
[03:28] <Jkessler> locate doesn't search the data or backup drives
[03:29] <ldlework> "make a new primary partition of type "unformatted""
[03:29] <majuk> ldlework: Not really sure.
[03:29] <edbian> locate literally searches files
[03:29] <majuk> ldlework: Why do you want it unformatted? I don't get it.
[03:29] <ldlework> because some other tool is going to chop it up
[03:29] <a94060> ldlework: just use dban on it
[03:29] <tammie> Jkessler: if they are mounted when the database is updated they should be included
[03:30] <Jkessler> i did a sudo updatedb
[03:30] <Jkessler> no luck
[03:30] <Jkessler> this computer runs 24/7 and is only rebooted if an update decides it needs a reboot
[03:30] <a94060> sorry
[03:30] <newser> is there any free service for remote desktop control?
[03:30] <majuk> ldlework: Well you can clean it with dban, but if something else is going to partition it and what not, there's really no need.
[03:31] <a94060> newser: vnc...if you are on windows terminalservices
[03:31] <C-S-B> newser: vnc
[03:31] <mdg> spo: any luck with screen?
[03:31] <newser> is it only terminal based?
[03:31] <Kittykis> nope
[03:32] <edbian> If I run "sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda" will that create a new ext3 fs on that drive?
[03:32] <alexnet> What does this mean? sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0740, should be 0440
[03:32] <majuk> edbian: NO
[03:32] <edbian> majuk: How can I reformat without using gui?  Is that the wrong command?
[03:32] <Michael> sudo as I recall is your system administrator
[03:32] <paissad-hp> when i run aptitude update, i have this error, but i don't know how to solve this
[03:32] <paissad-hp> W: GPG error: http://mirror.noreply.org jaunty Release: Les signatures suivantes n'ont pas pu être vérifiées car la clé publique n'est pas disponible : NO_PUBKEY CFF71CB3AFA44BDD
[03:32] <cellofellow> alexnet: means that sudo enforces certain rules on the /etc/sudoers file which aren't met. How do fix that I don't know, as you need to use sudo to fix it.
[03:33] <paissad-hp> i did this -- > gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv 94C09C7F
[03:33] <paissad-hp> but this does not work
[03:33] <a94060> alexnet: can u use sudo chmod?
[03:33] <cellofellow> alexnet: you can try sudo chmod 0400 /etc/sudoers
[03:33] <paissad-hp> how can i solve that, thanks in advance
[03:33] <edbian> alexnet: STOP!!!
[03:33] <nmvictor> alexnet: filepermission for the sudoers file, are you in live CD?
[03:33] <edbian> alexnet: are you using visudo -f /etc/sudoers?
[03:33] <alexnet> I ran a sudo chmod statement that was followed by a *, did i accidentally change the permissions for my entire computer including the chmod command itself?
[03:33] <majuk> edbian: fdisk for partitioning in the CLI. Or parted, if you're awful at life.
[03:33] <Michael> I believe you have to log out and know how to logon to your sudo username of which i do not know how to do yet
[03:34] <edbian> majuk: I'm pretty good at life
[03:34] <Michael> I am just starting a cisco academy program in Anchorage AK
[03:34] <majuk> edbian: Then you'll be an fdisk man!
[03:34] <a94060> alexnet,what was the exact command?
[03:34] <drcheezenstein> nmvictor: hey will it fix grub even though im doing it through update manager?
[03:34] <majuk> edbian: You create the partition with fdisk, then format it with mkfs
[03:34] <alexnet> It was  sudo chmod -R u+xw /*
[03:35] <alexnet> wait.. there was no Slash in teh original command
[03:35] <a94060> alexnet, yea you are done
[03:35] <alexnet> lol I see
[03:35] <a94060> ohh okat,then what directory were u in when u ran that?
[03:35] <alexnet> :(
[03:35] <edbian> majuk: So if I want 1 big ext3 partition: sudo fdisk /dev/sda   ???
[03:35] <nmvictor> drcheezenstein: whichever way you choose to upgrade,an upgrade is an upgrade.just pray more and doubt less.
[03:35] <Jyxt> alexnet: with just the * you only did the dir where you were
[03:35] <edbian> majuk: Is fdisk menu driven?
[03:35] <alexnet> What about with /*?
[03:35] <majuk> edbian: Yup.
[03:35] <Jyxt> if you were in / then yes you changed all permissions...butif you were in /home you did only /home/*
[03:35] <a94060> alexnet: that would have been the whole system
[03:35] <majuk> edbian: 'm' will display the options.
[03:35] <alexnet> I ran them both, and canceld them both after awhile
[03:35] <swapy> guys does ubuntu have widgets like vista has?????
[03:36] <MsMaco> swapy: try screenlets
[03:36] <edbian> Thanks!
[03:36] <swapy> how can i install them ?
[03:36] <alexnet> Well my chmod broke right after i ran it... so i guess I have boned myself pretty bad then?
[03:36] <MsMaco> swapy: or if you use kubuntu, theyre called plasmoids
[03:36] <drcheezenstein> nmvictor: thanks bud I appreciate the help
[03:36] <edbian> swapy: Yeah.  Look at "screenlets" or "gdesklets" package
[03:36] <a94060> alexnet: id agree with you
[03:36] <myself> has anyone gotten pcsx2 (ps2 emulator) to work in linux? i need help w/ figuring out how to install it and what dependencies i need
[03:36] <nmvictor> alexnet:its hard fixing the sudoers crap,especially if you are in live CD,are you?
[03:36] <nmvictor> drcheezenstein: anytime buddy
[03:36] <alexnet> nmvictor, i dont know what that means... im not running off of a CD, i installed it. (does that answer?)
[03:37] <a94060> drcheezenstein: did u fix your problem with the booting?
[03:37] <swapy> thanks
[03:37] <nmvictor>  alexnet: yea,so where exactly is the problem?
[03:37] <swapy> installing
[03:37] <drcheezenstein> a94060; not sure yet waiting for this upgrade to finish to find out
[03:37] <a94060> ahh alright drcheezenstein
[03:38] <alexnet> Well I guess my problem is sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0740, should be 0440   assuming the whole rest of the box isnt crashing in burning as well
[03:38] <alexnet> Because I think that error may be inidicative of some deep system damage i've caused.. thought i hope not
[03:38] <drcheezenstein> will be back to let you guys know Im going to exit pidgin to see if it helps speed things up
[03:38] <OBiiT> hey, im new to ubuntu and just wanted to ask, what PDF readr are ppl using? Ive been trying xpdf and the original one ("Document viewer").. and neither are good.. was looking online and some ppl talked about some kpdf but i dont get how to install it, it says its included in kde but then..
[03:39] <edbian> OBiiT: I just use "Document viewer" cause I have so few pdf's.  You can get kpdf from the repos.  You don't need KDE to run it.  "sudo apt-get install kpdf"
[03:39] <aivan> can anyone help me with resetting my video card drivers?
[03:39] <a94060> alexnet: you wont realize the damage right now of permissions. The default ones are usually set on each file,you have generalized them now to whatever value you selected
[03:40] <a94060> anyone know of some good eee linux support places?
[03:40] <aivan> i just tried to install ati catalyst and now my display is all messed up
[03:40] <nmvictor>  OBiiT: sudo apt-get install kpdf should wor i think, though their s also Adob reader for ubuntu(linux)
[03:40] <swapy> guys i want a http file tranfser    software like hfs      this one http://www.rejetto.com/hfs/          i want to share files on lan so please suggest one
[03:40] <bucky> alexnet: maybe you should make a new distro that have world wide write and read on /etc
[03:40] <alexnet> a94060, are you suggesting that I go ahead and reformat?
[03:40] <aivan> anyway to reset the drivers?
[03:41] <a94060> alexnet: well,it depends what you have. Im not sure actually. If you can afford to start from scratch,why not =]
[03:41] <jbob_> alexnet: you can boot into recovery mode an fix the permissions for the /etc/sudoers file but all the other wrong permissions may cause strange errors and/or security holes
[03:41] <OBiiT> it says Package kpdf is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[03:41] <nmvictor> alexnet:i think a94060 is right, given you choices.
[03:42] <a94060> alexnet: if you are just messing around,what id advise you to do after the first fresh install is simplly back it up. incase u do something,you can just untar it back like before
[03:42] <bismark> !spanish
[03:42] <a94060> !english
[03:43] <nmvictor> OBiiT: the other package is kde, if you insist,you can install kde then kpdf.kde and gnome will reside peacefull on you linux box.but that is if you must really get kpdf,you could try adobe
[03:43] <OBiiT> but yeah, it works fine with adobe reader.. thanks
[03:43] <a94060> if i would like to compile drivers for a wireless card, what would i need?
[03:43] <OBiiT> yepp adobe is fine :)
[03:44] <IdleOne> a94060, build-essential is the package
[03:44] <swapy> anwser my question guys
[03:44] <IdleOne> swapy, patience
[03:44] <swapy> guys i want a http file tranfser    software like hfs      this one http://www.rejetto.com/hfs/          i want to share files on lan so please suggest one
[03:44] <a94060> IdleOne: well the thing is, I am going to try again to setup ubuntu on eee
[03:45] <alexnet> Well here's the thing.. this box sits in my basement and runs tools for a small dev team... all of whom have their access restricted by ssl and iptables allowing only their specific IPs... so I'm okay with the OS-related security holes remaining until something else justifies a reformat... the question is can i get basic functionality back? All of the private tool websites hosted
[03:45] <alexnet> by this box appear still be working.
[03:45] <a94060> well alexnet, you could backup the data such as the iptables and the website
[03:45] <tuxwulf> Easy question... if a network is xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/28, what is the subnet mask?
[03:46] <a94060> u could get by without reformatting,just expect to see errors like what u sa
[03:46] <a94060> saw
[03:46] <swapy> how to navigate to desktop any shortcut key in ubuntu to hide all windows and switch to desktop??
[03:46] <a94060> tuxwulf: <IP_ADDRESS>	16 hosts
[03:46] <runinwater> hal,lo
[03:46] <Pici> swapy: ctrl-alt-d
[03:46] <giiker> swapy: Ctrl Alt D
[03:47] <tuxwulf> a94060: Tthanks. That's what I figured but wanted to check...
[03:47] <a94060> ahh okay,google =]
[03:47] <swapy> thanks
[03:47] <swapy> guys i want a http file tranfser    software like hfs      this one http://www.rejetto.com/hfs/          i want to share files on lan so please suggest one
[03:47] <alexnet> Okay well i'll stop messing with permissions.. and since i still have https access i'll go rescue all my sites and data... and then i'll come back here for a lesson on how to not destroy my linux box again.
[03:47] <a94060> alexnet, the best way would be to enable interactive mode
[03:47] <giiker> swapy: they have the source, if you did not about it
[03:48] <a94060> chmod -Ri could have helped,also rereading commands
[03:48] <swapy> giiker, means?
[03:49] <nmvictor> swapy: try Google,maybe shes got some idea.
[03:49] <swapy> nmvictor, i tried
[03:49] <swapy> giiker, how to compile all source and install in linux?
[03:50] <opdynamiks> Q: I have XChat and for some reason each time I log in & connect to freenode I have to do the /msg NickServe identify thing, it won't use my stored password in the XChat Network settings
[03:50] <nmvictor> swapy:i dont seem to understand you http transfer, if you wanted ftp i'd suggest Filezilla,for http?cant think of any application i've heard of
[03:51] <mrmac> hello
[03:51] <the_dark_warrio> Is it possible to install BrOffice on Ubuntu?
[03:51] <icarus-c> the_dark_warrio:: if there is .deb package or the source,  yes.
[03:52] <boss_mc> opdynamiks: hfs claims to run under wine
[03:52] <mrmac> I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction to host Cyber Cafe type WirelessLAN
[03:52] <boss_mc> opdynamiks: whoops, wrong name!
[03:52] <icarus-c> nmvictor:: that thing is like a web application to "share" files
[03:52] <boss_mc> swapy: hfs claims to run under wine
[03:52] <the_dark_warrio> icarus-c: There is in fact a plethora of .deb packages, but I guess the last time I installed, I've got a lot of bugs too (because of the already installed openoffice)
[03:52] <mrmac> like, any way to host a webserver, so that when people use a webbrowser, they are initially directed to the server's webpage
[03:53] <di||itante> mrmac: look into the tomato firmware, you can set it up on a Linksys wrt54gl and accomplish that
[03:53] <Firefishe> During bootup, during pre-mount, pre-journal-commit phase, I notice something.   It's not a 'problem' in the usual sense, but rather one in the aesthetic sense.  It's a typo, wherein there's a boot message that says "update needing tables" .  It should really say "tables needing updating" and I'd like to know a way--on the command line--that I could find out where this message is so I can fix it.
[03:53] <mrmac> okay, great, thanks.  i'll check that out.   =]
[03:53] <nmvictor> icarus-c: swapy was requesting of a http transfer app, cant think of any.got any ideas?
[03:54] <Firefishe> I'm using Jaunty 9.04
[03:54] <bucky> giiker: For programmers: download sources (created with Turbo Delphi).
[03:54] <icarus-c> nmvictor:: no
[03:54] <swapy> nmvictor, thanks man u are trying to help me
[03:54] <swapy> :)
[03:54] <bucky> it's a nice windows program.. just one exe
[03:54] <giiker> bucky: yeap that's what I meant
[03:54] <swapy> yes
[03:54] <icarus-c> swapy:: "ubuntu"
[03:54] <swapy> it was awesome app
[03:54] <nmvictor> swapy: no problem
[03:54] <Xerran> Anyone know if Ghost can image and restore ubuntu?
[03:54] <swapy> icarus-c, so please suggest an app alternative to hfs
[03:55] <poent_> Whats the best app to play dvd's? the one included in 9.04 is missing the "dvd source" codec
[03:55] <tuxwulf> Xerran: Of course
[03:55] <giiker> swapy: I also used to use that app :(
[03:55] <IdleOne> poent_, install libdvdcss2
[03:55] <di||itante> poent_: you just need to install the dvdcss libs
[03:55] <swapy> ok hfs guys have provided source from that can i make app for linux?
[03:55] <poent_> groovy thanks
[03:55] <Firefishe> poent_:  I spend a bit of time on this.   It depends on what kind of dvd, too.  My new dvd of the movie "Coraline" won't allow menu navigation in any player.
[03:55] <IdleOne> swapy, you can run hfs with wine
[03:55] <Xerran> tuxwulf: so basically just boot with the ghost cd right?
[03:56] <Firefishe> !medibuntu | poent_
[03:56] <swapy> ok what for this www.voidtools.com     best app ever for windows ever
[03:56] <swapy> fastest search
[03:56] <Pici> !offtopic | swapy
[03:56] <tuxwulf> Xerran: That's correct. Tthere is even a linux version of ghosting software
[03:56] <swapy> ubottu, im trying to find alternatives bro
[03:56] <Xerran> tuxwulf: what do you recommend?
[03:56] <gogeta> tuxwulf: or just use dd
[03:57] <gogeta> tuxwulf: dd into a img file
[03:57] <tuxwulf> Xerran: Well, if you're not the experimenting kind of person I'd recommend go with what you know.
[03:57] <a94060> is there anyway i can use the xp bootloader  to decide between xp and linux?
[03:57] <Firefishe> What log do the system bootup messages exist in?
[03:57] <nmvictor>  ubottu|
[03:57] <bucky> swapy: if that doesn't work out then you can do it the linux way... but you have enough network savy to set up your nic to a static addy that's not reserved for dhcp by your dsl modem and don't use webmin http://www.howtoforge.com/setting-up-subversion-with-webdav-post-commit-hook-and-multiple-sites-on-jaunty-jackalope-ubuntu-9.04
[03:57] <gogeta> tuxwulf: thers a way so it only does the data blocks to
[03:57] <di||itante> Firefishe: dmsg
[03:57] <a94060> Firefishe: use the dmesg command i think
[03:58] <nmvictor> ubottu?
[03:58] <tuxwulf> a94060: Yes, you can do that, but only if your linux is installed on a Win partition
[03:58] <gogeta> tuxwulf: so your image isnt as big as the drive
[03:58] <boss_mc> swapy: locate does the job, only faster :-)
[03:58] <nmvictor> ubottu!
[03:58] <IdleOne> nmvictor, ubottu is a bot
[03:58] <tuxwulf> gogeta: Yes... there are many more ways to do this, but I figure, lete's keep it simple...
[03:58] <a94060> i was reading about a method where i could use dd to copy the bootloader?
[03:58] <di||itante> a94060: yes
[03:58] <a94060> i want to do it because i have the windows drive encrypted
[03:58] <swapy> boss_mc, thanks
[03:58] <boss_mc> s'ok
[03:59] <gogeta> a94060: dd copys everything
[03:59] <nmvictor> IdleOne: i know
[03:59] <di||itante> a94060: more specifically the MBR
[03:59] <a94060> well,at least the mbr i meant
[03:59] <IdleOne> nmvictor, well then why are you spamming
[03:59] <a94060> so i would install grub to the partition
[03:59] <gogeta> a94060: but i typo can be bad be very carefull
[04:00] <a94060> and then dd it into a file?
[04:00] <gogeta> 1
[04:00] <a94060> *the mbr
[04:00] <gogeta> you dd into a image
[04:00] <Ben64> can't you just set it up to boot linux from within windows?
[04:00] <Xerran> tuxwulf: thx
[04:00] <Ben64> like sysinfo32 i think
[04:00] <a94060> well,i want it seperatly =]
[04:00] <swapy> what is use of tomboy notes?
[04:00] <nmvictor> IdleOne: wanted to get the msg you gave me to someone, cant remember the command.trying out ain't spamming, is it?
[04:00] <tuxwulf> Xerran: np, have fun
[04:00] <poent_> if i'm getting some minor lag when opening windows and applications do you think it could be the video driver?
[04:00] <gogeta> then you can just dd the mbr
[04:00] <giiker> a94060: you can, just have to know the exact HEX addresses
[04:00] <edbian> swapy: They're just virtual sticky notes.
[04:00] <Stupendoussteve> Ben64: No, linux does not use the ntloader that windows uses
[04:00] <IdleOne> nmvictor, use /msg ubottu test to try it out
[04:00] <Xerran> tuxwulf: i have been experimenting with clonezilla but I am unsure on the restore
[04:00] <a94060> hex address?
[04:01] <Ben64> Stupendoussteve: pretty sure there's a way to do it
[04:01] <gogeta> as i said use with care
[04:01] <edbian> poent_: Wrong channel bud
[04:01] <Xerran> brb
[04:01] <gogeta> dd into the wrong drive and well
[04:01] <tuxwulf> me too, I better go back to work....
[04:01] <Ben64> http://bkpavan.wordpress.com/2008/04/02/how-to-boot-linux-using-windows-bootloader-xp/
[04:01] <a94060> hha gogeta
[04:01] <Ben64> found it with my google-fu
[04:01] <pburleson> How can I find out how a package was configured and compiled for Ubuntu?
[04:01] <nmvictor>  swapy: tomboy is just for notes
[04:01] <gogeta> a94060: its happond to people
[04:01] <a94060> well,how big is grub bootloader?
[04:01] <pburleson> like the ./configure and make commands used?
[04:01] <a94060> how many kb
[04:02] <edbian> a94060: So large that it doesn't fit in the MBR (which really isn't that big at all)
[04:02] <swapy> thanks
[04:02] <di||itante> a94060: the first 512 b of the drive
[04:02] <a94060> alright,thank you
[04:02] <a94060> so if i copy that 512b into a file
[04:02] <Stupendoussteve> Ben64: NTLDR can load a linux bootloader, but it is not simple to configure
[04:02] <a94060> and add it as an entry, i am done then
[04:02] <nmvictor> IdleOne: thanks message long overdue, and your name,are you also a bot?why IdleOne?
[04:03] <Ben64> Stupendoussteve: looks like 3 steps from that site i linked
[04:03] <gogeta> Ben64: grub for windows is a project to make it easy
[04:03] <di||itante> a94060: dd if=/dev/hdx of=MBR-backup bs=512 count=1
[04:03] <bazhang> nmvictor, please take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:03] <poent_> edbian: but the lag is within ubuntu lol
[04:03] <gogeta> Ben64: it uses the windows boot.ii
[04:03] <a94060> alrighty,thank you di||itante
[04:03] <gogeta> ini
[04:03] <giiker> a94060: sorry, I was thinking about CMOS
[04:03] <delaman> i can not remote connect to my mysql database.  i have tried to edit /etc/mysql/my.cnf "bind-address" but not luck,,, im using jaunty,,, any ideas
[04:03] <Ben64> gogeta: yeah..?
[04:03] <IdleOne> nmvictor, I am a bot
[04:03] <a94060> its all good, di||itante  answered it perfectly,thats what im lookng for
[04:04] <giiker> a94060: to copy into n image file type this:
[04:04] <gogeta> Ben64: yea it uses grub4dos and uses the boot.ini to start it
[04:04] <Ben64> gogeta: uh-huh
[04:04] <gogeta> Ben64: that how i used to boot my usbhdd with ubuntu on it
[04:04] <giiker> sudo dd if=/dev/hda of=/home/user/mbr_backup bs=512 count=1
[04:04] <Ben64> gogeta: ok? still not seeing whats bad about it
[04:05] <aubre> anyone have any experience getting tsm to work on 64-bit Ubuntu?
[04:05] <gogeta> Ben64: what grub4windows
[04:05] <raman> hi
[04:05] <di||itante> a94060: as standard practice, i backup my mbr and partition table of all my systems. It makes disaster recovery much easier
[04:05] <gogeta> Ben64: dd can be bad
[04:05] <giiker> a94060: sudo dd if=/dev/hda of=/home/user/mbr_backup bs=512 count=1
[04:05] <Ben64> using windows' bootloader to load linux
[04:05] <Ben64> anything can be bad
[04:05] <kermit> giiker: why do ppl always say to use dd instead of cat?
[04:05] <a94060> haha Ben64
[04:05] <a94060> thats a smart idea backing up all mbrs
[04:05] <Ben64> kermit: dd is super awesome
[04:06] <kermit> or head in that case
[04:06] <giiker> cat? what do you mean?1 you can't  use cat to copy o restore an image
[04:06] <giiker> kermit: cat? what do you mean?1 you can't  use cat to copy o restore an image
[04:06] <nmvictor> how do you achieve that, the MBR and partion table Backup?
[04:06] <nmvictor>  a94060:how do you achieve that, the MBR and partion table Backup?
[04:06] <bucky> delaman: are you behind the same modem? can't connect from <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[04:06] <poent_> sudo apt-get update
[04:06] <poent_> whoops
[04:06] <poent_> this isnt a terminal
[04:07] <IdleOne> poent_, :)
[04:07] <a94060> hahaha

[04:07] <bucky> poent@freenode:~$
[04:07] <losher> gogeta: do you want to say some more about why/when dd is bad?
[04:07] <bucky> Password:
[04:07] <gogeta> losher: 1 typo and  boom
[04:08] <IdleOne> gogeta, that's not a typo
[04:08] <Ghoti_> losher: dd is powerful, but sudo dd can nuke a hard drive if you're not careful.  Kinda like rm.
[04:08] <gogeta> losher: your refomating
[04:08] <Poent> nice bucky
[04:08] <Poent> :-P
[04:08] <MsMaco> i use it to nuke hard drives...
[04:08] <di||itante> kermit: cat requires more resources and dd is more flexible
[04:08] <icarus-c> dd can be bad if you want to clone a partition and you use UUID to identify the partition
[04:08] <bucky> delaman: if your host and server are no behind the same modem you have to port forward... try connecting with telnet and read through this thread http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?132,190869,190869
[04:08] <delaman> bucky: i am at home trying to connect to a remote computer mysql,,,, the remote computer is behind a router....... my i ssh to the remote computer i can not even connect like this "mysql -u root -h <IP_ADDRESS> -p"
[04:08] <IdleOne> gogeta, never mind me :|
[04:09] <bucky> delaman:  you need to port forward on the remote end
[04:09] <Ghoti_> delaman: the mysql server needs the port forwarded to the computer running the server
[04:09] <Ben64> dd can be used to test cpus :) "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null" <-- nobody try that unless you want 100% cpu usage
[04:09] <losher> I suppose, but then, all the filesystem commands are pretty unforgiving...
[04:09] <icarus-c> Ben64:: why not /dev/random :P
[04:10] <Ben64> icarus-c: not enough random data in there
[04:10] <icarus-c> aha
[04:10] <Ben64> takes forever to build up entropy
[04:10] <Jyxt> entropy takes forever to build and it goes away very quickly
[04:10] <Ben64> urandom would work though
[04:10] <Ghoti_> Ben64: I was about to ask about urandom
[04:11] <Ben64><PHONE_NUMBER> bytes (3.3 GB) copied, 3.99654 s, 833 MB/s <-- /dev/zero \\\\\\ 11197952 bytes (11 MB) copied, 2.49775 s, 4.5 MB/s <--- /dev/urandom
[04:11] <di||itante> kermit: also, how can you tell cat only to read the first 512b of a file
[04:11] <icarus-c> aha, linux is just amazing, it is still perfectly functional even with 100% cpu usage
[04:11] <Ben64> icarus-c: if you set priority of that to maximum, stuff would be bad though
[04:12] <icarus-c> sure
[04:12] <Andorin> I just grabbed gtkpod, and I like it so far. How do I set it to where gtkpod opens automatically when I connect my iPod to my PC, instead of Music Player?
[04:12] <kermit> icarus-c: xp has terrible scheduling
[04:12] <Ghoti_> s/terrible// # fixed
[04:12] <Ben64> but yeah, linux is generally smarter than windows at memory management, cpu, and just about everything else
[04:12] <icarus-c> not really. even  XP SP3 still worse
[04:12] <Firefishe> I'm using Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04.  When I log into X, nm-applet brings up my wireless card and connects to my wlan router effortlessly.  However, when I don't log into X--as I sometimes do--and go straight to a terminal, when I use iwconfig to attempt to connect to the 'net, it doesn't work.  My hardware parameters are here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/255512/ .
[04:12] <kermit> di||itante: well, head in that case..  i havent found cat to take more resources
[04:13] <edbian> di||itante: Are you trying to write to the MBR?
[04:13] <Ghoti_> Is there iPod Touch support in Linuxland yet with a nonjailbroken 'pod?
[04:13] <gogeta> no
[04:13] <icarus-c> linux "revives" my old lappy
[04:13] <Firefishe> icarus-c: As it often does :) Yay!
[04:13] <di||itante> edbian: no someone else wanted to copy it
[04:13] <rCX> What does recursive copy as in "cp -r" mean?
[04:13] <giiker>    hell linux made my 600 mhz run like a horse comparing to xp
[04:14] <icarus-c> rCX:: copy through directories
[04:14] <gogeta> rCX: use to copy enitre dirs
[04:14] <rCX> thx
[04:14] <di||itante> kermit: evne then you have to use two commands head and cat to accomplis what only dd does
[04:14] <edbian> rCX: That folder and all folders and files in that folder
[04:14] <Ben64> i thought it had to be "cp -R" to copy folders and everything within
[04:14] <xangua> Ghoti_: better ask apple why they take much effort in making their ipod/iphon no interact with 3rd software
[04:14] <Ben64> oh nvm, -R and -r are both the same
[04:14] <ctmjr> Firefishe: what commands are you using to connect?
[04:14] <icarus-c> xangua:: rockbox it man
[04:15] <xangua> icarus-c:  ¿¿
[04:15] <icarus-c> xangua:: http://www.rockbox.org/
[04:15] <cbcbilling> hi all! is there a way to update gnome 2.22 on hardy?
[04:15] <Ben64> xangua is correct. Apple hates interoperability.
[04:15] <Andorin> I just grabbed gtkpod, and I like it so far. How do I set it to where gtkpod opens automatically when I connect my iPod to my PC, instead of Music Player?
[04:15] <Ben64> They have purposefully killed support for applications that worked under linux
[04:16] <Ghoti_> xangua: if I wanted to bang my head against a wall, I'd start a vi/emacs debate; I was just wondering if progress had been made from the side of the equation from which progress might be expected.
[04:16] <giiker> Ben64: you mean inneroperability
[04:16] <giiker> :)
[04:16] <xangua> ooh i've already seen it
[04:16] <Ben64> no :S
[04:16] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  Things like:    sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "ssidnameInQuotes"
[04:16] <xangua> is it aviable in spanish  ¿¿ Ben64
[04:17] <Firefishe> ctmjr:   Also:  sudo dhclient wlan0
[04:17] <giiker> Ben64: I meant they luv inneroperability
[04:17] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  Things like that.  I've tried everything to try to get the system to recognize the wireless card --laptop, btw-- and I'm stumped.

[04:20] <Korren> in 9.04 i created an ext4 fs that will be used for strictly storage and i'd like to get rid of the journal. I've run 'tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/sdc1' and it recovered some space but I'm not sure if it's all the space.. is there a better way to remove the journal or should I just recreate the fs w/o the journal?
[04:20] <spo> if i connect to an account via ssh , then i run screen,    and the ssh connection terminatates,   screen will still be running and be okay, i guess
[04:20] <jMyles> MK-ubuntu: It seems that "sudo tasksel install lamp-server" does the whole thing now
[04:20] <WhiteCrow> Emergency please help me ( i can not speak EN very will i hope Excuse me  for this) pls see this for my probleam
[04:20] <tammie> Firefishe: nm doesn't use /etc/network/interfaces. If you want to have network connectivity without logging into X then you have to dump network mangler and go with ifup/ifdown
[04:20] <jMyles> spo: that's right.
[04:20] <ctmjr> Firefishe: run top in terminal and see if network-manager is running if it is kill it
[04:20] <Jaha> so I made a live disk on a usb stick of UNR and booted up in it with my asus eee pc 900win. I ran into a weird problem
[04:21] <icarus-c> Andorin:: Nautilus -> Edit -> Preferences -> Media
[04:21] <WhiteCrow> Emergency please help me ( i can not speak EN very will i hope Excuse me  for this) pls see this for my probleam  http://imagebin.ca/view/ENKvcpA.html
[04:21] <giiker> spo: when you come back and reattach it will take yo right where you left off
[04:21] <Firefishe> ctmjr: Now?   The difference is just how you print it e.g. printf "%03d\n" 3   Try it yourself...
[04:21] <Jaha> the mouse was very jumpy when no apps were open but it seemed fine with an app running
[04:21] <icarus-c> Korren:: meh... how on earth you want to remove the journal
[04:22] <Korren> i don't need it.. basically i want ext2 with the benefits of ext4 (save the journaling)
[04:22] <Jaha> could it just be because it was running off the usb or is it something else does anyone know?
[04:22] <Andorin> icarus-c and xangua: Neat! Ty.
[04:22] <syntac> kermit: thanks!
[04:22] <Korren> unelss you can suggest a better FS type for storage that has MINIMAL overhead
[04:22] <Korren> space is premium
[04:22] <adroel> haloo everybody
[04:22] <majuk> Hey adroel!
[04:22] <majuk> :D
[04:22] <syntac> losher: i had file1, file2, ..., file10, ... but file10 kept showing up before file2 in `ls`. not what i was wanting to happen which is why i'm adding the 00 prefix
[04:22] <WhiteCrow> Emergency please help me ( i can not speak EN very will i hope Excuse me  for this) pls see this for my probleam  http://imagebin.ca/view/ENKvcpA.html
[04:22] <icarus-c> Korren:: and i assume you have read about ext4 draw backs?
[04:23] <WhiteCrow> :'(
[04:23] <ctmjr> Firefishe: not now when you login to console mode and want to set up the wireless with iwconfig
[04:23] <kermit> Korren: vfat is probably quite minimal
[04:23] <oasisfai> http://imagebin.ca/view/ENKvcpA.html
[04:23] <oasisfai> http://imagebin.ca/view/ENKvcpA.html
[04:23] <di||itante> Korren: depending on the files you store you ma be able to further streamline by configuring the block sizes too
[04:23] <WhiteCrow> oasisfai: can u help me
[04:23] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  I want to have one way to connect, and I want X to 'play nicely' with the method I choose.  Is this even possible?
[04:24] <Jaha> has anyone else experienced the same thing?
[04:24] <Firefishe> '
[04:24] <nmvictor> anyone have an idea how to repair a flash disk?Appears in nautilus side-pane as unmounted USB drive.gparted recognizes it ofcourse as device file /dev/sdb but unpartitioned and without a filesystem.whenever i try to add a new partition,doesn't work any help?.
[04:24] <adroel> ASK!!! i just want to install ubuntu 9.04 but i confuse which is the best should i use, ext3 or ext4, i got a 160 GB SATA hardisk
[04:24] <losher> syntac: Understood. you can use the printf to generate the filenames you need...
[04:24] <majuk> nmvictor: What, specifically, happens when you try to partition/format it?
[04:24] <icarus-c> adroel:: ext4 is fast, but may introduce data lost (google it)
[04:25] <Firefishe> ctmjr: NetworkManager is running, along with nm-applet and nm-system-settings
[04:25] <edbian> adroel: It's basically personal preference.  Research it! : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4
[04:25] <syntac> losher: any particular reason why file10 displays before file2 in ls?
[04:25] <di||itante> adroel: ext3 is more mature
[04:25] <kermit> syntac: use rename
[04:25] <prince_jammys> syntac: they're sorted as strings, not numerically
[04:25] <syntac> prince_jammys: ah
[04:25] <Testudo> adroel: I've been using EXT4 for some time now. I appreciate the speed, and while there is a risk of dataloss, I haven't had any trouble with it. I'd recommend it :)
[04:25] <Firefishe> ctmjr: Do I need to install anything?
[04:25] <icarus-c> syntac:: 1 is smaller than 2
[04:25] <prince_jammys> syntac: better to use leading zeros
[04:25] <edbian> adroel: di||itante ext3 enjoys fine wine.  ext4 had a fit last night because his tummy hurt.
[04:26] <icarus-c> syntac:: in character
[04:26] <ctmjr> Firefishe: if network-manager is running it has control of the interface if you want too control it you have to stop network-manager
[04:26] <WhiteCrow> oh god , somebode help me i confounded for this
[04:26] <losher> syntac: it's a standard problem, and your solution (adding zeroes) is the standard solution...
[04:26] <xsebsx> hey there, i am on a wireless connection, i set up my cisco wtr160n router when i had windows originally, but i've gotten rid of windows since then, my problem is, i downloaded nicotine and though i can connect to the soulseek server i cannot connect to other users, when i try to download a file, it says cannot connect on the status, anyone can help me out?
[04:26] <di||itante> edbian: right! use ext3 or for that matter XFS
[04:26] <adroel> OK thanks for the advice dude!!!
[04:26] <edbian> di||itante: lol
[04:27] <eczerwin> #jolicloud
[04:27] <Firefishe> ctmjr: I've done this before, but it's been ages using ifup/ifdown manually.  How can I set the system to use the interfaces instead of NetworkManager (...Mangler, 'scuse me) ;)
[04:27] <nmvictor> majuk: in gparted,records a pending operation but with the Apply button still disabled.I've used Gnome Format and it says permission denied.then says something like the devices should be mounted rw [read/write] or i must be root.does work when im root, thus the rw stuff could be the problem.
[04:27] <syntac> losher, icarus-c, kermit, prince_jammys: thanks all! got it working
[04:27] <icarus-c> lol. anyone has look at WhiteCrow 's problem ?
[04:27] <giiker> i have been using ext4 and no probs upto now
[04:27] <kermit> syntac:  rename 's/file([0-9])$/file0$1/' file*
[04:27] <icarus-c> giiker:: me too :P
[04:28] <icarus-c> giiker:: since i never crash
[04:28] <di||itante> Firefishe: why not just uninstall network manager
[04:28] <majuk> nmvictor: Don't those cards have a lockout like old 3 1/4" floppies? Possible that got switched?

[04:30] <giiker> me neither?
[04:30] <WhiteCrow> majuk: see this prosses go to healt in 10 min
[04:30] <kermit> i think WhiteCrow wants to know what to do with the selection box for grub
[04:30] <Firefishe> di||itante: Currently, kde 4.3--which I'm using just now--as well as gnome--uses NetworkManager's nm-applet application to connect to the 'net.  nm-applet handles encryption well, and my system is encrypted.  There are times I want to just use the terminal, so I prefer to use iwconfig at those times.
[04:30] <nmvictor> majuk: sorry, meant ...doesn't work when im root, thus the rw stuff could be the problem.its a flash disk,LG.dont know what to do, how do i mount it as read and write and how do i mount without a filesystem?
[04:30] <ctmjr> Firefishe: make sure net-work manager is not loaded at boot
[04:30] <ImmortalKenny> Is anyone here familiar with Jolicloud?
[04:31] <giiker> WhiteCrow, is it the panel?
[04:31] <edbian> nmvictor: You might want to try "fdisk" instead of gparted"
[04:31] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  What file do I annotate to have that not boot up at start time?
[04:31] <WhiteCrow> giiker: ??
[04:31] <pellicon> fdisk is a dangerous cmd
[04:31] <nmvictor> edbian:what arguments on fdisk, please?
[04:31] <edbian> nmvictor: fdisk is menu driven
[04:32] <edbian> nmvictor: to start it "sudo fdisk /dev/<yourFlashDrive>"
[04:32] <majuk> nmvictor: 'm' to see the options
[04:32] <ctmjr> Firefishe: are you using gnome and is it loaded now?
[04:32] <giiker> WhiteCrow: can you elaborate?
[04:32] <WhiteCrow> giiker:  see new my screenshot pls
[04:32] <edbian> nmvictor: Make absolutely sure that you have the correct /dev/XXX or your will alter the partitions on your hard drive or something
[04:32] <Firefishe> ctmjr: No, kde 4.3.  As far as the system trays in either desktop environment go, to me, nm-applet works identically.
[04:33] <giiker> nmvictor: make sure you do this right or you might loose data
[04:33] <WhiteCrow> giiker: pls 2 min wite for upload screenshot
[04:33] <edbian> nmvictor: I'll do my best to hold your hand.  I'm not amazing at fdisk but I think I can do this
[04:34] <tuxwulf> Anybody know about OpenOffice?
[04:34] <prince_jammys> drama, suspense, #ubuntu
[04:34] <edbian> nmvictor: If you're trying to figure out what /dev you should be using just look at "sudo fdisk -l"  (which isn't dangerous at all)
[04:34] <edbian> tuxwulf: Yeah
[04:34] <edbian> tuxwulf: Just about everybody here
[04:34] <prince_jammys> tuxwulf: better to just ask about the specific problem you have
[04:34] <fuzzybunny> hey everyone for some reason whenever I switch songs in Rhythmbox the volume gets really low and then I raise it but if I switch songs it will reset back to the lower level. I have looked at all the volume controls and can't seem to figure out why it keeps resetting. Has anyone else experienced this?
[04:35] <giiker> WhiteCrow: are you havng problems when booting up?
[04:35] <tuxwulf> Okay. Pardon me, I never saw anybody about it. In OpenOffice Base, how to show relationships between tables?
[04:35] <WhiteCrow> yep
[04:35] <WhiteCrow> this my ver kerenel
[04:35] <nmvictor>  edbian:),i have run that and say /dev/sdc doesnt contain a valid partition table
[04:36] <edbian> nmvictor: Than that's what we want to edit: "sudo fdisk /dev/sdc"
[04:36] <giiker> WhiteCrow: you are having problems with grub
[04:36] <Poent> is 9.04 jaunty?
[04:36] <Firefishe> yes
[04:36] <majuk> Poent: Si
[04:36] <Poent> k
[04:36] <Quincy> yes
[04:36] <prince_jammys> tuxwulf: try #openoffice.org if you don't get an answer here.
[04:36] <WhiteCrow> yes when i boot i can't see my last ver my krenel
[04:36] <edbian> Poent: Yes
[04:37] <nmvictor> edbian:why not take me through that, mind if i PM
[04:37] <Firefishe> ctmjr: Still in gui land.  Is there something you wanted me to do?
[04:37] <edbian> nmvictor: PM away!
[04:37] <drcheezenstein> nmvictor: checked my bios turns out the hard drive was excluded from the boot order for some reason
[04:37] <drcheezenstein> nmvictor: so it works but Im having trouble getting my wireless to work

[04:38] <giiker> WhiteCrow: elaborate please, what happens after boot up
[04:38] <WhiteCrow> giiker: http://imagebin.ca/view/C0Sf9P.html
[04:38] <drcheezenstein> majuk: :-p
[04:39] <drcheezenstein> Im having this problem now where I installed the broadcom wireless drivers and it brought up the wireless options on the network button, but it wont connect to my network! so then I tried to reinstall the drivers and now its not even showing up on the network button
[04:39] <Firefishe> drcheezenstein: broadcom....I've had some exeperience with those.
[04:40] <giiker> WhiteCrow: can you get out of those msgs?
[04:40] <drcheezenstein> firefishe: any suggestions?
[04:40] <Poent> so i got libdvdcss2 installed but the default video player included with ubuntu still isnt playing the dvd. It's wanting to search for a suitable plugin and can't find it, even with the added repositories. Any ideas?
[04:40] <Firefishe> drcheezenstein: Are you in gui or command line?
[04:40] <majuk> drcheezenstein: You probably need to get the new firmware from the Broadcom website.
[04:40] <drcheezenstein> fiefishe: gui
[04:40] <Firefishe> gnome or kde or what?
[04:40] <drcheezenstein> gnome

[04:40] <Firefishe> oops
[04:40] <Poent> got that installed too
[04:41] <Firefishe> drcheezenstein: majuk's correct, the latest drivers are suggested for newer hardware
[04:41] <WhiteCrow> giiker: hey dude would u like to ssh my sys to Make this
[04:41] <WhiteCrow> :|
[04:41] <Firefishe> drcheezenstein: Also, what version of ubuntu?
[04:42] <Firefishe> You know, isn't there a way to automate the broadcom driver compile-and-install process?  On the command line?
[04:42] <drcheezenstein> firefishe: 8.04 lts or whatever
[04:42] <ctmjr> Firefishe: i need to figure out what you want to do your on a computer that has network setup but you want to control it thru a console and you cannot is this correct and your using the computer now?

[04:43] <giiker> WhiteCrow: sorry can't do that
[04:43] <edbian> I just installed ubuntu and it took 25 minutes!
[04:43] <WhiteCrow> giiker: ok tnx
[04:43] <xangua> congratulations edbian
[04:44] <edbian> ! :)
[04:44] <giiker> congs edbian
[04:44] <Xerran> edbian: do you do alternate or regular?
[04:44] <edbian> typically
[04:44] <Firefishe> ctmjr: That is correct.  I'm on the computer--an Asus G50Vt laptop--now.  Right now, I have to log into either kde or gnome, using nm-applet (NetworkManager) to connect through the gui.  If I don't login to X, and try to use iwconfig in a terminal, it doesn't seem to work, not even using ifup/ifdown.  Judging by what you're telling me, NetworkManager is "mangling" ifup/ifdown when it's installed?
[04:44] <paris> are binary files that've been installed using apt kept and archived?
[04:44] <Xerran> I prefer the alternate CD installs of Ubuntu
[04:45] <giiker> WhiteCrow: i am able to do it but rather not to.
[04:45] <paris> I'm thinking of moving from 32bit to 64bit but redownloading all the apps is going to be tedious
[04:45] <xangua> paris: apg-get ¿¿ yes
[04:45] <paris> besides, 64 bit ports of all applications may not exist
[04:45] <paris> xangua: what?
[04:45] <nownot> i have this board http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188035 with a NVIDIA nForce 730i northbridge that supports raid 5, is there a way to do hardware raid 5 with this and if so is there somewhere i can read on how to do this
[04:45] <Poent> xangua: i already went through the medibuntu setup for jaunty. still unable to play it using either mplayer or the default media player
[04:45] <xangua> apt-get**
[04:45] <paris> xangua: oh, yeah.
[04:45] <majuk> Firefishe: In my experience, you have to start the device with ifconfig *first*, then start the wireless portion with iwconfig
[04:45] <losher> paris: anything installed via apt is usually kept in /var/cache/apt/archives
[04:46] <WhiteCrow> giiker: im confounded
[04:46] <xangua> but they are not the same packages paris, or are they ¿¿¿
[04:46] <edbian> xangua: How do you write upside down question marks??!?!
[04:46] <wildnfree> paris: you can install 32 bit applications on 64 bit by using force-architecture
[04:46] <prince_jammys> you be pastin some non-ascii
[04:46] <prince_jammys> shame on you
[04:46] <Firefishe> majuk: That might be salient.  I didn't use ifconfig anything at all.
[04:46] <surendra-is> Hi
[04:46] <paris> losher: cool

[04:47] <edbian> xangua: Oh :(  I don't have one of those
[04:47] <WhiteCrow> کسی این جا  کمی فارسی بلده
[04:47] <Xerran> Anyone had luck with eSATA and Linux?
[04:47] <surendra-is> I have installed Ubuntu 9.04 and updated with additional softwares like lotus notes, SAP etc .. now i want the same to be installed in another system
[04:47] <majuk> Firefishe: Yea, I did the same thing for a week, wrestling with iwconfig wondering why it wouldn't DO anything. lol
[04:47] <surendra-is> do i need to have a fresh installation .. or can i copy this system ??
[04:48] <xangua> Poent: do you tried with VLC ¿
[04:48] <wildnfree> !hindi | WhiteCrow
[04:48] <edbian> surendra-is: You can copy the system.  Use dd
[04:48] <Firefishe> majuk: Well, it *may* (or not) be as simple as that, so I should probably try the simple way, first.
[04:48] <Poent> Does vlc support dvd playback?

[04:48] <xangua> Poent: for me is better than totem (the default)
[04:48] <ctmjr> Firefishe: ok this what you need to do first reboot the computer in console mode and run top see if network-manager is runnimg if it is then kill it then run theses commands if it is unencrypted, hold on will pastebin them

[04:51] <ctmjr> Firefishe: http://pastebin.com/m762b6544 if it works and you are happy with it you can remove network-manager completely
[04:51] <losher> edbian: surendra-is: dd is only guaranteed to copy disks correctly if the source & destination disks have identical geometry....

[04:51] <gwildor> ,,,
[04:51] <david_> Help. I am trying to format my computer with DBAN and start fresh.  GRUB loads up before the bootdisk is noticed.  What can I do to format entirely?
[04:51] <Firefishe> oooh, pretty arabic letters!  I love my kvirc!
[04:51] <WhiteCrow> ubottu: yes but not good ubuntu.ir
[04:52] <gwildor> david_, change your boot order in the bios..
[04:52] <prince_jammys> david_: ensure in your BIOS that you boot from CD first
[04:52] <majuk> david_: Change your boot options in BIOS
[04:52] <nmvictor> edbian:please see my PM
[04:52] <david_> I tried pressing F8 is there another buttton?  this is an older dell from around the y2k
[04:52] <gwildor> david_, but if you are just 'starting fresh' you dont need dban, and installer cd will do what you need
[04:53] <gwildor> david_, esc, f1, f2, f11, f12... try them all, just run your finger across the whole top row
[04:53] <prince_jammys> david_: it varies. you should get a quick message telling you what key. try delete
[04:53] <losher> david_: so what's on the disk that it needs DBAN? Terrorist cells & child pornography?
[04:53] <david_> cool thanks
[04:53] <prince_jammys> david_: yeah, do that, but also try the delete key
[04:53] <Firefishe> ctmjr: If I get rid of network-manager completely, will things still be configurable from the gui when I want it?  I still want graphical tools that work equal to the command line stuff.
[04:53] <giiker> losher: :]
[04:53] <david_> hehehe I dunno about that

[04:54] <swapy> librxtxSerial.so goes in /jre/lib/[machine type] (i386 for instance)
[04:54] <swapy> Make sure the user is in group lock or uucp so lockfiles work.
[04:54] <giiker> nownot: here
[04:54] <Firefishe> I'll brb....gonna try something
[04:54] <losher> david_: my point is that it's complete overkill for any but the most extreme situations...
[04:54] <giiker> nownot: check here http://www.lpmagazine.org/prt/view/pdf-articles.html

[04:55] <giiker> nownot: click the one with the title mision critical data
[04:56] <majuk> nownot: No, it's software RAID5, not true hardware driven. You're better off using mdadm and disabling the BIOS RAID settings.
[04:56] <giiker> swapy: Java?
[04:56] <ctmjr> Firefishe: no they will not the only thing you can do is stop network-manager from starting at all then decide what one you want to use at the time or kill it when you want to run the console
[04:56] <SJr> Why isn't bitchx included in Ubuntu, what did they do, and how can I stop it?
[04:56] <swapy> giiker, i dont know if i hve java installed or not
[04:56] <prince_jammys> SJr: it's been discontinued
[04:57] <nownot> majuk: you mean my board only supports raid 5 software? or ubuntu does
[04:57] <SJr> And?
[04:57] <swapy> giiker, RXTXcomm.jar goes in /jre/lib/ext (under java)
[04:57] <swapy> librxtxSerial.so goes in /jre/lib/[machine type] (i386 for instance)
[04:57] <swapy> Make sure the user is in group lock or uucp so lockfiles work.

[04:58] <Poent> VLC is working great, thanks for the help guys
[04:58] <majuk> nownot: But there's no hardware RAID driver. It has to be software driven.
[04:58] <nownot> majuk: sigh, well that sucks
[04:58] <giiker> swapy: have you ckecked using synpatic?
[04:58] <majuk> nownot: Actually, I've been running a RAID5 array for 3 years and haven't lost a single file.
[04:58] <majuk> nownot: *software RAID5
[04:58] <nownot> majuk: software?
[04:58] <SJr> fail enough, I think it's time go
[04:58] <majuk> Yup

[05:00] <nownot> majuk: yeah i looked at mdadm and it looks easy to get going
[05:00] <majuk> nownot: And I've worked with it. Swapped 2 drives, expanded from 3 to 5 disks, and never even had a hiccup.
[05:00] <tonyyarusso> Does anyone use Charter cable here?  I'm trying to figure out how to get my brother connected.
[05:00] <majuk> nownot: Yea, it's pretty simple. Personally, I liked the way LVM worked on top of RAID. Let me find the howto I used to set it up for you.
[05:01] <swapy> prince_jammys, yes man you got what i wanted to say
[05:01] <swapy> thanks
[05:02] <prince_jammys> swapy: welcome. stay out of trouble.

[05:02] <darkscrypt> legend2440, yeah just a sec
[05:03] <prince_jammys> !java | swapy : here, in case you need this:
[05:03] <losher> ntiy: I use it for debugging. What do you need to know?
[05:03] <ntiy> I am trying to debug some fortran code
[05:04] <ntiy> gfortran being used as a compiler
[05:04] <xangua> swapy: why not JRE ¿¿
[05:04] <ntiy> when I do print variable in gdb
[05:04] <darkscrypt> http://paste.ubuntu.com/255533/
[05:04] <darkscrypt> legend2440, http://paste.ubuntu.com/255533/

[05:06] <legend2440> darkscrypt: did the error message include something like  Failed to fetch http://some url?
[05:06] <darkscrypt> yeah
[05:07] <legend2440> darkscrypt: which one?
[05:07] <losher> ntiy: if it only happens with some variables and not others, it may be that the optimizer has eliminated the variable. Try turning off optimization?
[05:07] <darkscrypt> legend2440, all of them
[05:07] <darkscrypt> legend2440, it must have appeared every time it checked for something
[05:07] <raman> hi

[05:08] <legend2440> legend2440: not positive though
[05:08] <darkscrypt> its just a server i haven't changed it in a few years legend2440
[05:08] <Ozzah> can somebody pleas help! I wanted to install gnotepad+, and I needed pango, cairo, glib, and gtk+ so I installed those, compiled gnotepad+, and ever since ALL the writing on my screen is just boxes. After I restarted, all text everywhere is just blocks. I needed gnotepad+ to do my assignment due tomorrow, and now I can't even do it in gvim or anything... AHH! :'( :'( :'(
[05:08] <raman> hi drcheezenstein why dont u upgrade to latest stavle version to jaunty
[05:08] <ntiy> yes you are right. only with some of them. how do I do it? I use -O0
[05:08] <darkscrypt> legend2440, what  could i do to update that..i've got alot of critical data and the server really shouldn't be shutdown
[05:09] <drcheezenstein> raman: I would but I dont have cds to burn with
[05:09] <nownot> majuk: its alright
[05:09] <spo> when using "screen" , the screen ' f1-f12 keys binding overlaps the ability to use the keys for some other program like in htop to set options
[05:09] <mitsch> hi folks, could someone please give me a little help upgrading samba? got a problem with samba and windows vista... :(
[05:09] <nownot> guess im stuck w/ software raid
[05:10] <Satya> I had intel 2.4 drivers but i removed it and installed 2.6 i am getting white screen what can i do?
[05:10] <darkscrypt> Satya, you could try metacity --replace
[05:10] <nownot> majuk: well how do i know if a board has software as opposed to hardware
[05:10] <jesse_> is anyone having a redirection problem with google?
[05:10] <drcheezenstein> is there a way to upgrade to the latest one from the terminal?
[05:11] <raman> yes
[05:11] <raman> u can upgrade
[05:11] <Guest60508> i do a search and click on one of the links and i get redirected to shopica
[05:11] <Ozzah> hello? boxes everywhere... my system is now completely unusable. anybody?
[05:11] <prince_jammys> Ozzah: have you tried to reset your X with sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg ?
[05:11] <losher> ntiy: check the compiler documentation. I know with C code I used to work with, we just lived with it. Occasionally, I would resort to changing the source code to reference a variable in the code so the optimiser couldn't optimise it away. But it's a pain doing that. And when all else fails, the pros use print statements for debugging....
[05:11] <Ozzah> prince - trying that now... brb
[05:12] <Skexin> i'm having issues with a broken package that won't resolve itself in the synaptic package manager
[05:12] <prince_jammys> Ozzah: you'll have to restart X after doing that. It'll automatically backup your xorg.conf, just in case.
[05:12] <raman> sudo update-manager -d
[05:12] <legend2440> darkscrypt: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases  this says gutsy end of life was  April 18, 2009. sorry i'm not familiar with servers . there must be a way to upgrade
[05:12] <pretender> can anyone suggest a vlc skin that makes vlc progress and video appear in the one window.  I'm running a netbook
[05:12] <MsMaco> legend2440: sudo do-release-upgrade
[05:13] <darkscrypt> legend2440, its really regular ubuntu just used as a server
[05:13] <MsMaco> legend2440: that should bring you up to 8.04 which is an LTS
[05:13] <ntiy> well I was always using print for debugging. but decided to familiarize myself with gdb
[05:13] <xangua> Skexin: wich package ¿¿
[05:13] <ntiy> thanks anyway
[05:13] <xangua> try to downgrade Skexin
[05:13] <MsMaco> legend2440: that means the server edition is supported until...2013
[05:13] <myself> has anyone gotten pcsx2 (ps2 emulator) to work in linux? i need help w/ figuring out how to install it and what dependencies i need
[05:13] <Ozzah> prince - it only took half a second, I'm restarting now
[05:13] <prince_jammys> Ozzah: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart
[05:14] <prince_jammys> or ctrl-alt-backspace if you have that enabled
[05:14] <MsMaco> darkscrypt: umm i meant to say that to you
[05:14] <raman> HI ANYBODY KNOWS ABOUT ANIMATED BOOT IN KARMI KOALA I AM USNIG ALPHA4

[05:16] <Cygnia> Hi everyone; when I do sudo apt-get upgrade, when there's a kernel upgrade, it holds it back; how do you upgrade the kernel without having to use the Update Manager? Thanks.
[05:16] <di||itante> Cygnia: apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:17] <Guest60508> prince_jammys: weird. i wonder why this is happening...
[05:17] <Ozzah> I still have boxes
[05:17] <Cygnia> Thanks di||itante. Much obliged.
[05:17] <prince_jammys> Guest60508: ah. reminds me of windows malware
[05:17] <rocky_> how do I remove an account from sudoer?
[05:17] <Ozzah> ...everywhere
[05:17] <tuxwulf> Guest60508: Ah, I had something like that a while ago... What was it...
[05:17] <fotis> Help! I finish my kernel setup and now I don't understand this fakeroot make-kpkg  - -initrd - -append-to-version=-mw4 kernel_image kernel_headers

[05:17] <tuxwulf> Guest60508:  Yes, it was some form of malpractice, and nott a lot to do about it
[05:17] <di||itante> rocky_: visudo
[05:17] <fotis> can anyone help me?
[05:18] <andresmh> do you know if it's possible to run Java applet on Aurora?
[05:18] <prince_jammys> rocky_: preferable consulting man sudoers before you edit the file
[05:18] <Guest60508> tuxwulf: I'm running virtual box on top of windows, so could it be a windows virus?
[05:18] <rocky_> well, looking at the file, what I wanted done was already done
[05:19] <di||itante> prince_jammys: indeed
[05:19] <tommy_> who wants to help me config my resolution settings?
[05:19] <tuxwulf> Guest60508: .. Perhaps, but at the time I had something liek that it was out on the www; a traceroute revealed packets at some router going completely the wrong way
[05:19] <ctmjr> Guest60508: you using a proxy?
[05:19] <rocky_> you see, some idiot on our server started calling a person who I am TRYING to talk out of suicide started calling him gay........ needless to say, I glined him, but he has ssh access.....but thankfully it isn't sudo >:D
[05:19] <Guest60508> ctmjr: no I'm all vanilla on my connections
[05:19] <prince_jammys> Guest60508: browser hijackers, i believe they're called.
[05:20] <prince_jammys> they redirect certain URLs to bogus search sites.
[05:20] <tommy_> I need help getting my modeline settings for my lcd can anyone help?
[05:20] <fuzzybunny> Has anyone ever encountered a problem where as soon as you click on the option to hibernate/suspend the computer completely locks up?
[05:20] <Braxton> can anyone help me? my sound is not working
[05:20] <stager1> ye browser redirects are built into verizon modems we called them walled gardens
[05:20] <spo> so,  linux mint is a subproduct of ubuntu?
[05:20] <di||itante> tommy_: google for modeline generator
[05:20] <Braxton> it was working in windows XP now its not=(
[05:20] <tommy_> it gives me bunk values
[05:20] <Skexin> so is there anyone that could help me with my broken packages?
[05:21] <prince_jammys> spo: not exactly a subproduct. i think it's a derived distro.
[05:21] <Guest60508> prince_jammys:  yeah that's what is happening. i'm checking if it also happens in my windows top layer
[05:21] <tommy_> it says 1024x768 at 0hz
[05:21] <prince_jammys> ie. it's not supported by ubuntu
[05:21] <tommy_> it can't be right
[05:21] <bazhang> spo, mint is a derivative and not supported here
[05:21] <Satya> I have removed intel 2.4 driver and installed intel 2.6 driver for my internal graphics card now only white screen appears when i log in plz help me

[05:22] <xpot> Question: anyone what would cause firefox to studder?  (ie: it seems sluggish or freeze, just kidding type of effects, and has been that way for as long as I can remember, I was hoping updates would fix it but never seems to)
[05:22] <rocky_> xpot, too much flash?
[05:22] <rocky_> lol
[05:23] <Skexin> losher: acetoneiso
[05:23] <xpot> rocky_: not sure what you mean
[05:23] <di||itante> xpot: sometimes a profile can get bunged up. Try creating a new profile and running it under that new one
[05:23] <rocky_> flash is *U***** slow on linux
[05:23] <Guest60508> it also happens in both IE and Firefox in windows
[05:23] <losher> Skexin: ok, close synaptic, open a terminal, and try 'sudo apt-get remove acetoniso'. What does it say?

[05:27] <di||itante> Skexin: you are trying to use more than one instance of apt
[05:28] <wes__> satya: we read the first 5 posts pal
[05:28] <Skexin> di||itante: so what do i do to fix it?
[05:28] <chrisss> Could someone try and help me connect to wi-fi please?
[05:28] <ctmjr> !7.10 | Pranky
[05:28] <Satya> Then help me
[05:28] <di||itante> stop them and run only one
[05:28] <wes__> chriss: im in the same boat bud
[05:28] <losher> Skexin: did you close synaptic? Usually that msg means you're trying to run apt at the same time as synaptic...
[05:28] <Ozzah> can somebody pleas help! I wanted to install gnotepad+, and I needed pango, cairo, glib, and gtk+ so I installed those, compiled gnotepad+, and ever since ALL the writing on my screen is just boxes. After I restarted, all text everywhere is just blocks. I needed gnotepad+ to do my assignment due tomorrow, and now I can't even do it in gvim or anything... AHH! :'( :'( :'(
[05:28] <Skexin> losher: yes i closed it
[05:28] <Pranky> ubottu, so what should I do?
[05:29] <Satya> :'(
[05:29] <edbian> Ozzah: Are you using the package manager?
[05:29] <chrisss> I can see the network, and when I connect to it, it asks me for my password. My password is 6 digits long, but ubuntu only allowss 5, and then 11 or something.
[05:29] <ctmjr> !upgrade | Pranky
[05:29] <Ozzah> edbian: for some things, yes, for others no
[05:29] <chrisss> wes__: Are you on an eeepc 1005ha as well?
[05:29] <edbian> Ozzah: You should use it as much as possible
[05:29] <IdleOne> Pranky, what error are you getting?
[05:29] <losher> Skexin: ok, run ps ax | egrep 'apt|dpkg|synaptic'  to see if any dpkg processes are still running
[05:29] <di||itante> Ozzah: from the command line do a sudo apt get update and then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:29] <Ozzah> edbian: gnotepad+ wasn't on aptitude
[05:29] <edbian> Ozzah: The point of it is to avoid dependency hell
[05:30] <edbian> Ozzah: Ok, that I understand
[05:30] <wes__> chriss: well im having trouble even getting a wireless scan going what program are you using to connect?
[05:30] <Pranky> IdleOne, Err 404 not found
[05:30] <Satya> I have removed intel 2.4 driver and installed intel 2.6 driver for my internal graphics card now only white screen appears when i log in plz help me
[05:30] <legend2440> Pranky: Gutsy repos have been discontinued. upgrade to Hardy
[05:30] <chrisss> wes__: Program? Just the ubuntu thing on the top right. Although I had to install a .deb file to get it to recognize wi-fi points.
[05:30] <IdleOne> Pranky, your doing sudo apt-get update?
[05:31] <IdleOne> Pranky, follow legend2440 advice

[05:33] <MK-ubuntu> hi, i'm a 9.04 and 9.10 user but when i use gnome terminal to open MC(midnight commander) the Korean encoding gets cut..
[05:33] <di||itante> Ozzah: did you do the apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:33] <MK-ubuntu> I was wondering if anyone is on that..
[05:33] <Skexin> sorry...i crashed
[05:33] <Ozzah> di||itante: yes, nothing happened.
[05:33] <Skexin> losher: lets see what it says after a fresh reboot again
[05:33] <losher> Skexin: ok
[05:34] <ctmjr> tommy_: on the good box look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:34] <di||itante> Ozzah: run apt-get check
[05:34] <tommy_> it's a live cd
[05:34] <tommy_> I can't find it
[05:34] <wes__> what do i enter in terminal to show current connected wireless card?
[05:35] <Skexin> losher: looks like it fixed itself this time
[05:35] <Ozzah> di||itante: it took half a second
[05:35] <Ozzah> di||itante: nothing fancy happened
[05:35] <Skexin> losher: rebooting didn't help last time...lol
[05:35] <di||itante> Ozzah: so you have a project due tomorrow?
[05:35] <Skexin> thanks anyways:)
[05:35] <losher> Skexin: so are you all set now?
[05:35] <Skexin> looks like it
[05:35] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  Hello, I'm back.
[05:35] <whiteshep> Hello all. :)
[05:35] <tommy_> there is no x11 folder
[05:35] <losher> Skexin: cool. one down, 10,000,000 to go....
[05:36] <ctmjr> Firefishe: did it work?
[05:36] <Skexin> losher: lmao...i know what you mean
[05:36] <prince_jammys> tommy_: capital X
[05:36] <Ozzah> di||itante: I have to do a buttload of stuff for my post-graduate supervisor for tomorrow. I already delayed it from monday to tomorrow because I was having C compiler problems... but now I have nothing to show him. I took the day off work to do this stuff, and now I can't even do anything
[05:36] <Braxton> can anyone help me? my sound is not working
[05:36] <Satya> I have removed intel 2.4 driver and installed intel 2.6 driver for my internal graphics card now only white screen appears when i log in plz help me
[05:36] <tommy_> lol thanks
[05:36] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  I'm on cable now, and I have network-manager and network-manager-gnome, network-manager-kde, and some kde 4.3 plasma widgets (that don't work yet anyway) removed.
[05:36] <alazyworkaholic> I want to save a lecture playing in firefox to disk. That's no problem if it's regular video. However, it seems the lecture (I think it's still .swf) plays as slides with accompanying audio rather than video. When I download the file from Page Info - Media I just get a ~10KB file that shows the play/pause buttons & a blank slide. Can't find anything good in /tmp either after playing it in the browser. Is anyone familia
[05:36] <Ozzah> di||itante: I need to do it in ubuntu because I need to use gnuplot to confirm my results are accurate
[05:36] <tommy_> how do I view the file now
[05:36] <di||itante> Ozzah: Ok , so here is what I would do...
[05:36] <prince_jammys> tommy_: nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf , for one.
[05:37] <Ozzah> di||itante: I would prefer not to... but if it's the last resort then I can just format and reinstall
[05:37] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  Well, apt isn't caching my .deb files for some reason (I really want to change this), so I had to resort to an ethernet cable ;) hee
[05:37] <prince_jammys> tommy_: sudo nano if you intend to edit it
[05:37] <tommy_> just need the display settings
[05:37] <di||itante> Ozzah: uninstall everything you installed to get the program to install
[05:37] <Ozzah> di||itante: except that would waste about 2 hours
[05:37] <prince_jammys> tommy_: then nano/less, or even cat might do.
[05:37] <Ozzah> di||itante: I already tried that... about 15 minutes ago. All versions of GTK and GLIB have been removed
[05:37] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  I tried to reinstall network-manager, et al, but I couldn't connect.  ifconfig didn't work either, and I rebooted just to see if I could get everything working.  No dice.
[05:38] <agoriuq> Hi di||itante
[05:38] <losher> !fonts
[05:38] <di||itante> Ozzah: did you reintsall them
[05:38] <Ozzah> di||itante: no
[05:38] <tommy_> the file doesn't exist
[05:38] <tommy_> it keeps making me make a new one
[05:38] <agoriuq> Hi di||itante. Can you talk ?
[05:38] <whiteshep> Does anyone know if ACL's work in Ubuntu?
[05:38] <di||itante> Ozzah: what was the program you needed to run
[05:39] <Guest73158> Hi, can somebody told me, how to check installed version for ntfs-3g package?
[05:39] <Satya> I have removed intel 2.4 driver and installed intel 2.6 driver for my internal graphics card now only white screen appears when i log in plz help me
[05:39] <Satya> I have removed intel 2.4 driver and installed intel 2.6 driver for my internal graphics card now only white screen appears when i log in plz help me
[05:39] <losher> Ozzah: well it *sounds* like a font problem. Or worse, some kind of corruption. Since you're dead in the water anyway, might wanna try reinstalling X11
[05:39] <Psi-Jack> So, oddness happened, and my sound card is now showing up in the wrong order.
[05:39] <tommy_> ctmjr: that file isn't in the folder
[05:40] <di||itante> Ozzah: dont do that yet
[05:40] <legend2440> tommy_: make sure its  nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf   capital X in X11. linux is case sensitive
[05:40] <Ozzah> di||itante: well I *originally* needed (wanted) to use gnotepad+ to do C coding remotely through SSH. Turns out gnotepad+ isn't that fantastic after all. I'm used to using notepad2 for windows, and wanted something similar. If I had known all this would've happened I would've just stuck with text-editor but now it's too late
[05:40] <di||itante> Ozzah: what was the name of the program
[05:40] <tommy_> yes I know I'm in X11
[05:40] <tommy_> there's no xorg.conf tho
[05:40] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  Any ideas?
[05:40] <legend2440> tommy_: oh ok
[05:40] <Ozzah> di||itante: gnotepad+, which needs gtk+, which needs glib, pango, atk, etc.
[05:40] <ctmjr> Firefishe: open a terminal and run sudo iwlist scan
[05:40] <spo> mv works by only rm'ing old sourced files after they are copied right...  that is how it works
[05:40] <di||itante> Ozzah: was gnotepad in .deb package form
[05:41] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  k, doing it now
[05:41] <tommy_> I got X, Xresources, app-defaults, fonts, pwm, rgm.txt, rxvt.menu, and xsetup
[05:41] <purvesh> can any 1 help me to install the drupal in ubuntu 8.10
[05:41] <Ozzah> di||itante: No. I wouldn't have spend an hour trying to compile gnotepad+ if it had a deb file!
[05:41] <tommy_> no xorg.conf tho :-?
[05:41] <Satya> How do i open a text file in command prompt
[05:41] <di||itante> Ozzah: Are you using gnome or kde
[05:42] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  Okay, done.
[05:42] <ctmjr> Satya: nano
[05:42] <Ozzah> di||itante: I use gnome. I would happily switch to KDE if it would fix the problem - but even the log in screen has no fonts, so I don't think that would fix it
[05:42] <di||itante> No, do this
[05:42] <tommy_> help!!
[05:43] <legend2440> tommy_: in terminal   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg  should create a very basic  xorg.conf
[05:43] <islam> leaving
[05:43] <onchoe> e
[05:43] <ctmjr> Firefishe: what does it say under wlan0? paste it if it has an output
[05:43] <tommy_> it's not going to be able to create anything I'm running purely off CD
[05:43] <di||itante> Ozzah: For all the packages you installed to satisfy gnotepad do a apt-get remove packagename and then to dpkg --purge packagame for each
[05:43] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  Lots.  Let me pastebin it.
[05:43] <tommy_> there's no writing capability
[05:43] <newser> anyone knows if there is an app to access a NAS HDD over the internet for ubuntu?
[05:44] <MK-ubuntu> anyone?
[05:44] <di||itante> Ozzah: Then reinstall the gtk packages
[05:44] <the9a3eedi> Hi. I'm currently running gnome on ubuntu 9.04, and I wanted to start a new session with the same user but on a different window manager (without exiting from gnome). I know this is possible because I did it before with other linux distros, but for some reason I can't seem to do it on ubuntu. Any ideas what IU need to do?
[05:45] <Satya> How do i disable graphics effects via command line
[05:45] <legend2440> tommy_: can you paste the xorg.conf file from the computer you are trying to fix the resolution problem on?
[05:45] <tommy_> surely
[05:45] <tommy_> same location?
[05:45] <losher> Ozzah: the list of packages you installed should be in  /var/log/dpkg.log in chronological order, if that helps...
[05:45] <Ozzah> di||itante: how do I get a list of installed packages?
[05:45] <legend2440> tommy_: yes
[05:45] <tommy_> gimme two secconds
[05:45] <Ozzah> losher: lol, thanks :)
[05:45] <di||itante> Ozzah: just do the ones you installed for gnotepat

[05:49] <Ozzah> di||itante: Ok, I've apt-get remove'd all the packages that were left over, and reinstall libgtk2.0-dev which installed a bunch of them as dependencies... I've restarted X with ctrl+alt+backspace, and I'm still haveing box fonts

[05:50] <legend2440> tommy_: you running jaunty?
[05:50] <syntax> how do you move more then one file to a foldier in terminal without typeing in every name for the file..
[05:50] <purvesh> melaniej, thanx for reply
[05:50] <tommy_> jaunty?
[05:50] <newser> is there something similar to mionet on ubuntu?
[05:51] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  I have to input a key somewhere, eh?  Will that current setup even take wpa keys?
[05:51] <Ozzah> di||itante: but it didn't do anything... it just said something like "ignoring request to purge [...] which isn't installed"
[05:51] <legend2440> tommy_: ubuntu 9.04?
[05:51] <tommy_> 8.04
[05:51] <Satya> Disabling effects in command line
[05:51] <tommy_> 9.04 was crashing
[05:52] <tommy_> I kept losing characters in txt and menus
[05:52] <legend2440> tommy_: if you open  system>administration is there a hardware drivers option in there?
[05:52] <ctmjr> Firefishe: sorry my pm's are on ignore you need to put the key in it connects when you had network-manager installed right?
[05:52] <Ozzah> di||itante: is there some sort of a font service or something, that may have not started because of some error?
[05:52] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  Yes
[05:52] <tommy_> yup
[05:53] <Satya> HELP ME
[05:53] <di||itante> Ozzah: not likely, have yoou rebooted
[05:53] <stlsaint> does anybody know of any software that i can use to record live video with to my computer via digital camera
[05:53] <legend2440> tommy_: if you open it is there a driver listed you can activate?
[05:53] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  Although, at this point, I've forgotten where I wrote the thing down, it's long and complicated (as it should be), so I'll have to reset my modem first, so I can access the web inteface again--and this time write the thing where I can find it! ;)
[05:53] <tommy_> none listed
[05:53] <stlsaint> like for church services?
[05:53] <Ozzah> di||itante: a few times... doing it again now (though I don't think it will change anything)
[05:54] <tommy_> I was able to mess around with xrander earlier and get it to atleast have an option to turn it to 1024x768
[05:54] <Ozzah> di||itante: is there no way to do a repair install from the original cd?
[05:54] <mrpinky> hi :D i have two sound cards installed, but my sound is coming out of the wrong one :( how can i specify the other one to be the default? i found "default mixer tracks" in system -> preferences -> sound, but that doesn't seem to change the default card
[05:54] <tommy_> but it would throw an error everytime I tried to set it to active
[05:54] <di||itante> Ozzah: Ok, then since you are on a deadline, I would boot to a live cd, install all the stuff you need and get your work done, save it to a USB stick. Then fix it later
[05:54] <tommy_> thats why I thought it was the modeline or something
[05:55] <legend2440> tommy_: ok in terminal type   lspci | grep -i vga  to find out what video card you have
[05:55] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  I used nm-applet to connect, and it worked flawlessly.  I really want a system that can be manipulated on CLI *and* via gui to the ifconfig and iwconfig and  wep/wpa interfaces.
[05:55] <di||itante> Ozzah: Kinda, it depends on how your partitions are set up
[05:55] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  Would removing dhclient's software and using dhcpd change the ifup/ifdown use priority?
[05:55] <Ozzah> di||itante: I was having the same thoughts... thanks for trying
[05:56] <tommy_> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Motion, Inc. SM712 LynxEM+ (rev a0)
[05:56] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  I seem to remember experimenting with dhclient and dhcpd once before, in Intrepid early on, if I remember correctly.
[05:56] <stlsaint> legend...its lspci -l | grep vga
[05:56] <di||itante> Ozzah: the only other thing I would try to fix it is, apt-get clean, this forces a redownload of the packages you reinstalled. You could have installed a package that got corrupted
[05:56] <stlsaint> i think...thats what worked on mine
[05:56] <ubuntu> where can I download Alsa drivers for my Intel Corporation 82801G?
[05:56] <ctmjr> Firefishe: am not sure about that i allways was dhclient hold on a sec
[05:56] <Firefishe> ctmjr:  Holding, tower ;)
[05:56] <di||itante> Ozzah: then you would have to uninstall and reinstall them again
[05:57] <tommy_> did you see it
[05:58] <Bearshare> Hello

[06:01]  * losher says thank you ops
[06:01] <veinor> Has anybody had any luck getting wireless on the Eee 1008HA to not be crappy via ndiswrapper?
[06:01] <brummbaer> i still say irc should have a 'tase user' function.
[06:02] <tommy_> lol
[06:02] <ctmjr> Firefishe: this is what i have for wpa-psk http://pastebin.com/m465c334 never used it hope it helps need to leave
[06:02] <tommy_> 30000 volts going through the space bar
[06:02] <Firefishe> k ctmjr, thanks for your help
[06:02] <tommy_> I think legend gave up on me
[06:03] <mrpinky> at least somebody replied to you
[06:03] <Techwraith> Looks like I logged in right when a flamewar was happening
[06:04] <brummbaer> so anybody familiar w/ networking an ubuntu machine to access share from windoze? sorry to repost, but it's been a while, thought i'd refresh.
[06:04] <legend2440> tommy_: still here
[06:04] <tommy_> lol yay!
[06:05] <silv3r_m00n> I am using live cd....how to get the list of hard drives/partitions ?
[06:05] <silv3r_m00n> like dev/sda etc
[06:05] <tommy_> I thought I could just steal the settings from DSL because it has no problem displaying 1024x768, Ubuntu wont though on the same computer
[06:05] <prince_jammys> silv3r_m00n: fdisk -l
[06:05] <prince_jammys> silv3r_m00n: that's a lower case L
[06:05] <veinor> I've been trying various stuff with ndiswrapper, but I can't get the signal strength on my wireless above 50% despite the fact that this other laptop right next to it has it at 90%
[06:05] <veinor> and I ca't even get ndiswrapper to load
[06:06] <legend2440> tommy_: open synaptic and see if  xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion is installed
[06:06] <tommy_> gonna have to explain how to do tha tone
[06:07] <silv3r_m00n> prince_jammys: any other way.......
[06:07] <silv3r_m00n> it doesn't tell the partitions sizes
[06:07] <prince_jammys> mm
[06:07] <legend2440> tommy_: open system>admin>synaptic and see if xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion  has a green box next to it
[06:07] <tommy_> I dunno much bout linux yet
[06:08] <prince_jammys> silv3r_m00n: it does over here
[06:08] <tommy_> k on it
[06:08] <silv3r_m00n> it says device boot start end blocks id and system
[06:08] <silv3r_m00n> now where is size ?
[06:08] <prince_jammys> silv3r_m00n: i get: Disk /dev/sda: 163.9 GB,<PHONE_NUMBER>72 bytes
[06:09] <losher> silv3r_m00n: yes it does, the "blocks" column is the partition size in 1k blocks
[06:09] <Techwraith> tommy__: <hint> you can sort the entries in there by the column with the checkboxes in them
[06:10] <Techwraith> tommy__: <hint> Or you can search for "xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion" by hitting the search button
[06:10] <silv3r_m00n> losher: doesn't appear to be
[06:10] <silv3r_m00n> dividing that by 1024 or 1024*1024 doesn't give the correct gb siz
[06:10] <silv3r_m00n> size*
[06:11] <tommy_> haha well I did it the hard way
[06:11] <tommy_> but yes it's green
[06:11] <silv3r_m00n> ok I have ubuntu installed on 1 of those partitions ...how can I check which ?
[06:11] <losher> silv3r_m00n: ok, run it & paste the output to www.pastebin.com
[06:11] <legend2440> tommy_: ok
[06:11] <dickfeynman> hi all.... i'm having a problem with my dell inspiron heating up too much and shutting down(I run ubuntu)... can somebody help me ?
[06:12] <tommy_> is there a command line I could use in dsl like xrandr?
[06:12] <Flannel> silv3r_m00n: "GB" is 1 billion bytes when concerned with harddrives.
[06:12] <legend2440> tommy_: open system > preferences is there a Display option in there?
[06:12] <tommy_> no the only way I can adjust that is by going to "resolution setting"
[06:12] <tommy_> or scree resolution I mean
[06:12] <tommy_> under settings
[06:12] <legend2440> tommy_: that doesnt work?
[06:13] <tommy_> it won't let me go higher than 800x600
[06:13] <tommy_> I screwed around in xrandr and made a new mode for 1024x768 but I couldn't get it to work still
[06:14] <tommy_> it gave me an option to click on 1024 after I did it but it still would be at 800x600
[06:14] <silv3r_m00n> can I scan for bad sectors like this >> sudo e2fsck -cc /dev/sda6    ?
[06:14] <tommy_> here I'll paste you exactly what I did and tell me if you know anything else I could do
[06:14] <silv3r_m00n> how without the -cc option
[06:15] <silv3r_m00n> or with a single c
[06:16] <silv3r_m00n> what is the difference between single c and double c
[06:16] <tommy_> still there?
[06:17] <kpkudi> how do i run tint2 after it is installed...i just get bash:tint2: command not found
[06:17] <losher> silv3r_m00n: modern drives do their best to conceal bad blocks from the kernel. Just do a regular fsck & check the SMART data for the drive separately.
[06:17] <silv3r_m00n> means ?
[06:17] <tommy_> legend: http://paste.ubuntu.com/255557/
[06:17] <tommy_> wasn't an option at first, got it to recognize and an option, but still couldn't get it to activate
[06:18] <silv3r_m00n> where can I get that smart data ?
[06:18] <losher> silv3r_m00n: are you talking to me. You need to use my name...
[06:18] <silv3r_m00n> losher: oh sure...
[06:18] <silv3r_m00n> losher: I mean I did a fsck...it gave no error
[06:19] <silv3r_m00n> losher: so how to actually find how many bad sectors are there
[06:19] <tommy_> I assumed it was the values in need of adjustment thats why I was going to try to steal them from DamnSmall but I dunno where to find them
[06:19] <tommy_> there's no xrandr code
[06:19] <losher> silv3r_m00n: you have to read the SMART data on the drive. apt-get install smartmontools gsmartcontrol
[06:20] <computer_> how do i find out what folders/files are being shared over a network?
[06:20] <silv3r_m00n> any issues with the e2fsck -cc /dev/sda6  thing ?
[06:20] <computer_> how do i find out what folders/files of mine are being shared over a network?
[06:21] <xim_> hey whats that really good hard drive recovery program that copies sector to sector to get the data off?
[06:21] <legend2440> tommy_: i would try this   http://www.perimeterless.org/?p=106
[06:22] <tommy_> thanks I'll check it out
[06:22] <silv3r_m00n> losher: any issues with the e2fsck -cc /dev/sda6  thing ?
[06:22] <tommy_> I'm talkin to another fellow in ubunu-x at the moment
[06:22] <losher> silv3r_m00n: then see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.M.A.R.T.    See Reallocated Sectors Count for why you cant tell bad blocks using fsck
[06:22] <IsmAvatar> My trash can is showing the "full" icon, but it's empty
[06:23] <IsmAvatar> any idea how I'd fix that?
[06:23] <losher> xim_: http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/ddrescue.html
[06:24] <silv3r_m00n> losher: what does this mean >> end_request : I/O error , dev sda , sector 242505412
[06:25] <whiteshep> Does anyone here have experience with ACLs?  I need a quick check to make sure I'm setting this right.
[06:25] <Skexin> i'm back >.<
[06:25] <losher> silv3r_m00n: well, it means there was an error accessing sector 242505412. The drive will normally remap a failing sector automatically. What kind of drive is it?
[06:26] <Skexin> does anyone know anything about using wine to play games installed through an iso?
[06:26] <silv3r_m00n> losher: its my new samsung n110 notebook
[06:27] <silv3r_m00n> losher: netbook*
[06:27] <silv3r_m00n> losher: 160gb hdd
[06:28] <legend2440> IsmAvatar: click  the Trash icon so it opens and then  press ctrl+h keys  any hidden files in there?
[06:28] <silv3r_m00n> losher: does that mean it's a bad sector ?
[06:28] <IsmAvatar> legend2440: Negative
[06:29] <Skexin> losher: his me up when you finish with them please:)
[06:29] <losher> silv3r_m00n: ok, so it's not a ssd. So everything we said above about SMART & fsck still applies. If you look thru the output of dmesg it should tell you the brand of disk. Then you can download the manufacturers diagnostic disk and run extended checks on the drive
[06:29] <Skexin> losher: hit*
[06:29] <silv3r_m00n> losher: but , all this isn't supposed to come up in a new machine right ?
[06:29] <losher> Skexin: what's up?
[06:29] <legend2440> IsmAvatar: that happened to me before but i think it rectified itself after a reboot
[06:30] <Skexin> losher: i used gmount to mount an iso to my desktop for easy access
[06:30] <IsmAvatar> legend2440: I don't think I've reboot yet. I'll try that.
[06:30] <Skexin> losher: i'm done with the iso, now i can't get the files off my desktop....
[06:30] <losher> silv3r_m00n: it shouldn't, but you wouldn't be the first person in the world to take delivery of a brand new PC that had a hardware problem...
[06:30] <kamokow>  When I use .htaccess and .htpasswd then try to login it just creates a loop of requiring me to enter the username an password. I know that the .htaccess and .htpasswd work (because I have used them elsewhere, then transferred them here, then edited the .htaccess to point to the right file). But yea, it just goes through a loop. Any ideas on how to fix this?
[06:30] <kamokow> Also, sorry, using Apache2 running 9.04
[06:31] <losher> Skexin: do you mean you can't delete the files?
[06:31] <silv3r_m00n> losher: so instead of trying to scan my hdd .....i shud go and fight with the shop right ?
[06:31] <Skexin> losher: yea
[06:31] <Skexin> losher: they have a lock on them...
[06:31] <silv3r_m00n> losher: I just need a way to popup all errors infront of them ...
[06:32] <losher> silv3r_m00n: I would download the manufacturers diagnostic disk and run extended checks on the drive first.
[06:32] <Skexin> losher: I thought they would go away when i unmounted the drive, but they didn't
[06:32] <xim_> losher does ddrescue copy on the physical level rather than the filesystem level?
[06:32] <insertable> Hey all. At partitioning time during an Ubuntu 8.10 Server installation a slave drive was partitioned as RAID but nothing else set up after that in regards to RAID. Would it be okay to format the slave drive without losing data on the primary drive? (Sorry if this doesn't make sense)
[06:32] <losher> Skexin: who says they have a lock on them?
[06:33] <IsmAvatar> legend2440: Thanks, that solved it
[06:33] <Skexin> losher: there is a little lock on the icon, and it won't let me delete them...when i check the properties, it says the owner is root
[06:33] <legend2440> IsmAvatar: ok good
[06:34] <losher> Skexin: that's probably cause you mounted the iso as root. Open a terminal and use 'sudo rm <file>' to delete the files (carefully!)
[06:35] <silv3r_m00n> losher: -cc option does a read write test...so that shud be able to reveal something
[06:35] <noob> hi
[06:35] <noob> My bluetooth mouse stop working after bluetooth update
[06:36] <noob> i tried so many ways but still no luck
[06:36] <silv3r_m00n> noob: then downgrade the update
[06:36] <losher> xim_: it reads block by block, and does retries, and skips over blocks that won't read...
[06:36] <noob> how can i?
[06:36] <Skexin> losher: cannot remove : no such file or directory
[06:36] <losher> silv3r_m00n: you can show them the smart data if it shows errors...
[06:37] <losher> Skexin: do an ls -l first. Do you see the files?
[06:37] <noob> Silv how can i downgrade bluetooth upgrade? I switch fedora to ubuntu
[06:37] <silv3r_m00n> losher: they don't know how to plug a headphone jack
[06:37] <silv3r_m00n> losher: I installed smartmontools ...now how to use it ?
[06:38] <silv3r_m00n> everytime I write the netbook image to my usb pen drive and then boot and then do check installation media........it says 1 file corrupt..why ?

[06:39] <Tarkers> I need help switching which sound card I'm using in Ubuntu
[06:39] <losher> silv3r_m00n: the easiest is to do sudo gsmartcontrol & click on view details -> attributes (or error log)
[06:39] <noob> i have kensington bluetoth mouse, it was working it before but after the update it doesn't
[06:39] <Tarkers> I used to have my monitor speakers working from my onboard sound but since upgrading to 9.10 it's defaulted to my usb card.
[06:39] <silv3r_m00n> losher: gsmartcontrol not installed...its not in synaptic
[06:40] <noob> i want to downgrade my bluetooth update
[06:40] <computer_> how do i find out what folders/files of mine are being shared over a network?
[06:40] <losher> silv3r_m00n: google for it. It's worth it. Much easier than the CLI smart tools...
[06:41] <losher> Skexin: wanna pastebin the ls -l output?
[06:41] <HighLordObsi> waddap y'all
[06:41] <legend2440> silv3r_m00n: http://blog.shadypixel.com/monitoring-hard-drive-health-on-linux-with-smartmontools/
[06:41] <Skexin> losher: what do you mean?
[06:42] <losher> Skexin: cut & paste the output to www.pastebin.com then tell us the url...

[06:43] <Skexin> losher: http://pastebin.com/m5ba5fa84
[06:44] <losher> Skexin: cd Desktop, then ls -l again. Now do you see the files?
[06:44] <Skexin> losher: no
[06:45] <silv3r_m00n> losher: how the change the theme of applications running as root
[06:45] <legend2440> Tarkers: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting#Configuring%20default%20soundcards%20/%20stopping%20soundcards%20from%20switching
[06:45] <Skexin> losher: its like they are just a ghost of the files on my desktop x.x
[06:45] <noob> is there any way to grab bluetooth version from live cd?
[06:45] <losher> silv3r_m00n: no idea, I don't use the gui stuff much...
[06:46] <losher> Skexin: tell me the name of one of the 'ghost' files....
[06:46] <Skexin> losher: setup.ico
[06:47] <losher> Skexin: ok, type: cd .. ; find . -name setup.ico
[06:48] <Um_cara_qualquer> anyone knows how to use the "UNetbootin" to make a installer pen drive?
[06:49] <DigitalKiwi> Um_cara_qualquer: google does
[06:50] <losher> !unetbootin
[06:50] <Skexin> losher: my terminal gave me a bunch of file name spam followed by : Permission denied
[06:51] <losher> Skexin: sigh. Try sudo find . -name setup.ico
[06:51] <computer_> how do i find out what folders/files of mine are being shared over a network?
[06:51] <Jimmio> Hello all. Is there an easy way to make a partition automatically mount when Ubuntu starts?
[06:52] <computer_> jimmio, i think so
[06:52] <Flannel> !fstab | Jimmio
[06:52] <Skexin> nothing
[06:52] <Jimmio> Flannel: I was hoping easier than editing a file and hoping permissions are right, etc.
[06:52] <Skexin> losher: nother
[06:53] <Skexin> losher: nothing*
[06:53] <computer_> i guess u can run a script to auto mount it on start
[06:53] <losher> computer_: depends how they're being shared. nfs? samba? something else? In general, the answer is NO.
[06:53] <Flannel> Jimmio: Oh, fstab isn't all that scary.
[06:53] <DigitalKiwi> editing files is scary?
[06:53] <losher> Skexin: then I think you're right, they're ghosts. Try restarting the server, or rebooting?
[06:54] <Jimmio> Flannel: It isn't scary, no. But it is a PITA.. changing owners, groups, permissions, ugh.
[06:54] <Skexin> losher: lol....i guess my standard solution from now on should be 'try rebooting'
[06:54] <tommy_> PROBLEM SOLVED
[06:54] <tommy_> WOO
[06:54] <urthmover> How do I figure out if my computer identified an internal mic upon bootup?  will something show up in the dmesg?
[06:54] <legend2440> tommy_: what did you do?
[06:55] <Skexin> losher: lmao i fixed it
[06:55] <losher> Skexin: well, it *does* solve 99% of problems, sadly (or maybe that's happily)...
[06:55] <tommy_> changed the xorg.conf
[06:55] <losher> Skexin: how?
[06:55] <tommy_> forced it to 1024x768
[06:55] <DigitalKiwi> Skexin: rebooting to fix everything is very windows like
[06:55] <DigitalKiwi> #ubuntu approves
[06:55] <Jimmio> urthmover: You could probably open Sound Recorder and try it, couldn't you?
[06:55] <Skexin> losher: i opened my desktop folder and hit F5 to refresh
[06:55] <tommy_> 13.3 inches has never looked so big!
[06:55] <tommy_> lol
[06:56] <Skexin> losher: it cleared them all out...lol
[06:56] <Skexin> losher: god....simple solutions drive me insane sometimes...
[06:56]  * DigitalKiwi goes back to scary text files http://omploader.org/vMXJtYw
[06:56] <whiteshep> Can anyone give me some help with ACLs?
[06:56] <Skexin> losher: and agreed...very windows like
[06:57] <losher> Skexin: so they *were* ghosts. Be grateful *something* worked, And you learned a bit of CLI along the way...
[06:57] <urthmover> figured it out the mic was on mute in the volume control
[06:57] <pheonix> #kde
[06:57] <losher> ok, I'm done. G'night channel...
[06:57] <DigitalKiwi> bai
[06:58] <Skexin> losher: yea...they were stubborn ghosts...and CLI?
[06:58] <urthmover> yay .... today update manager somehow busted my grub   but doing a find  root   setup fixed things   ....it sure is nice when troubleshooting and the straightforward steps for resolution just fall into place  thanks ubuntu
[06:58] <Skexin> losher: have a good night man....thanks for the assistance
[06:58] <losher> Skexin: Command Line Interpreter

[07:03] <lakotajames1> hi guys.  where does firefox store the homepage information?
[07:03] <poent> with the user profile i believe
[07:03] <poent> in the mozilla-firefox folder
[07:03] <dividebyzer01> anybody here wanna help out a newb to Ubuntu?
[07:04] <Flannel> dividebyzer01: Best way to get help is to just ask your question.  If someone knows the answer, they'll answer.
[07:04] <dividebyzer01> gotcha, well I have a windows application that I need to run. I read that wine is decent at running most simple windows apps.
[07:04] <dividebyzer01> my problem is the file is a .rar
[07:05] <lakotajames1> poent:  where is that folder?
[07:05] <zeeble> hi. how do i get google chrome/chromium on ubuntu?
[07:05] <dividebyzer01> I installed the unrar-free software but when I go to extract it, the folder is empty. I can see the files but it doesnt extract the files
[07:06] <Ben64> dividebyzer01: try unrar instead of unrar-free
[07:06] <lakotajames1> poent: the mozilla-firefox folder?
[07:06] <poent> one sec
[07:06] <lakotajames1> ok

[07:06] <Jimmio> Flannel: Would you happen to know the type I need for ntfs? Is there an auto or ntfs-3g?
[07:07] <poent> lakotajames1: it should be under your /home directory:
[07:07] <dividebyzer01> it opens with "File Roller"
[07:07] <poent> ~/.mozilla/firefox
[07:07] <leaf-sheep> zeeble: https://launchpad.net/chromium-browser
[07:07] <zeeble> Jimmio: just ntfs is fine
[07:07] <zeeble> leaf-sheep: thanks

[07:08] <dividebyzer01> I right click and click "extract" and extract all. it just makes a blank folder
[07:08] <dividebyzer01> no files
[07:08] <Flannel> Jimmio: ntfs-3g (that page explains all about mounting ntfs automatically, obviously enough)
[07:09] <Ben64> dividebyzer01: try it in command line
[07:09] <dividebyzer01> in the terminal?

[07:11] <lakotajames1> I'm trying to find the firefox homepage via terminal.  help?
[07:11] <poent> lakotajames1: are you looking to just remove the homepage or do you want to edit it?
[07:11] <lakotajames1> poent:  I just want to know what it is.
[07:12] <dividebyzer01> how do you CD into a folder that has a space in the name?
[07:12] <poent> the file is going to change per install. it should be something like llLsls.default
[07:12] <lakotajames1> ok, thanks :)
[07:12] <Ben64> dividebyzer01: either use quotes, or put a \ before the space
[07:12] <zeeble> dividebyzer01: type tab, it will tell you what to do

[07:20] <noob> oops
[07:20] <moorthyvsm> Divide, what's the exact command you are using?
[07:20] <FloodBot3> noob: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:20] <noob> how?
[07:20] <alec868> i dont have a screen resolution option. i opnly have display settings
[07:20] <Fragsworth> whenever I run a flash video at full screen in firefox my CPU goes haywire. I have a core i7, so it's not a crappy CPU... is this typical?
[07:20] <Kazuhiro> Um is security.ubuntu.com having issues at the moment?
[07:20] <moorthyvsm> oh.. I don't have any idea in 9.04
[07:21] <alec868> oh well
[07:21] <dividebyzer01> well I'll come back later and ask again
[07:21] <Someoneis> try using internet explorer to run your flash games
[07:21] <r00t_ninja> is it possible to use cryptcat or socat as a sort of proxy?
[07:21] <noob> how can i delete all the entries from grub ?
[07:21] <PrometheusComple> ahh....i need help... I just ran update manager and now Pandora wont load
[07:22] <newser> anyone knows on any application that can help me organize my documents and keep them updated?
[07:22] <Someoneis> and i need some help.. how do i install madwifi-ng driver patches? http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=madwifi-ng how do i install them using terminal?
[07:22] <leaf-sheep> Fragsworth: Don't run it in full screen, me think.

[07:22] <darlek> I have a former ubuntu hdd connected to usb but I can't see root only home dir.  Says superblock error but otherwise /home is okay.  How to read root of drive?
[07:23] <noob> needhelp1 check this out
[07:23] <noob> http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/clean-up-ubuntu-grub-boot-menu-after-upgrades/
[07:23] <noob> i found useful
[07:23] <majuk1> Uhhh... anyone ever heard of Open Arena causing network failure?
[07:23] <Someoneis> nd i need some help.. how do i install madwifi-ng driver patches? http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=madwifi-ng how do i install them using terminal?
[07:24] <spo> at the end of a line you can put a & to make the command run in the background, but what if you have two other commands that are pended with ";"  , then you cannto do   command 1 & ; command 2 & ; command 3&  nor can you do command 1; command 2; command 3  &  ... because neither of them work
[07:24] <Flannel> noob, needhelp1: no, that's the wrong way to go about "cleaning" your grub menu.  If you want those entries gone, just use your favorite package manager to remove their corresponding kernel packages (linux-image-[version])
[07:24] <lakotajames1> poent: I found it :D  in case you wanted to know, it's prefs.js
[07:24] <lakotajames1> poent:  Thanks :D
[07:25] <noob> Flannel let me see
[07:25] <xim_> ok i got ddrescue working, whats a good program to recover deleted/quickformatted files from an ntfs partition?

[07:25] <darlek> Someoneis, try http://blog.hyperandy.com/2008/11/01/atheros-ar242x-ubuntu-810-ibex/ , that helps run madwifi so maybe that can direct you to fix it
[07:25] <Someoneis> thanks bud, let me check it out
[07:25] <Kazuhiro> Any ubuntu.com admins about? The security.ubuntu.com website is crapping out...
[07:26] <PrometheusComple> is anyone else having problems with PANDORA?....
[07:26] <Myrtti> Kazuhiro: that's because of the new kernel update
[07:26] <darlek> Someoneis, I realize it's for ibex not jaunty but the instructions might help or not correct anything you're doing (helped me tons)

[07:27] <needhelp1> Flannel: i can only find one installed instance in synaptic
[07:27] <xim_> noob, try searching for kernel (just guessing)
[07:28] <moorthyvsm> do a file system check using a live CD
[07:28] <leaf-sheep> noob: Run "uname -sr" to see what kernel you have.
[07:28] <Flannel> noob: find your linux-image- packages, and remove the old ones.  I recommend keeping at least one old, known good one.  In case you find a problem with the most recent kernel
[07:28] <Flannel> needhelp1: of linux-image-*?
[07:28] <moorthyvsm> Darle, o a file system check
[07:28] <needhelp1> Flannel: yeah
[07:28] <moorthyvsm> Darle, do a file system check
[07:28] <moorthyvsm> Any one know good AV for Ubuntu 8.10?
[07:28] <Flannel> needhelp1: There should be a few at least.  linux-image-generic, and then linux-image-[long version]-generic
[07:29] <xim_> moorthyvsm, clamav... although the only point in it is scanning windows files that might go back and hurt windows again, linux has no viruses really
[07:29] <roachy> @moorthyvsm - you shouldn't need it....but you might want to look at chkrootkit
[07:29] <noob> its Linux 2.6.28-11-generic, I want to keep <IP_ADDRESS> kernel
[07:30] <noob> .14 kernel giving me some problem
[07:30] <needhelp1> whats the newest kernal out?

[07:30] <noob> .15
[07:30] <Someoneis> i got a error, when i unzipped madwifi i typed this in but got no directory cd madwifi-hal-<IP_ADDRESS>-r3879-20081204
[07:30] <roachy> @moorthyvsm viruses need elevated permissions to take effect.  you can install clamav though if your running an antispam or perimter box and want to scan incoming files
[07:30] <moorthyvsm> I feel installing Avast is cool one!

[07:31] <poent> lakotajames1:  thanks for letting me know!sorry it sounds like i lead you a little astray

[07:33] <xim_> needhelp1 sure it probably doesnt matter in this case, but thats the difference

[07:37] <leaf-sheep> godmodegrafix: That's really unnecessary.

[07:38] <majuk1> Is there a support channel for Open Arena?
[07:38] <majuk1> Because it's pwning my router.
[07:38] <leaf-sheep> noob: Did you try the latest kernel (2.6.28-15) and see if the bluetooth works for you? It does for me. It may require some configuration first.
[07:38] <roachy> Or a problem starting the daemon
[07:38] <Flannel> xim_: It's not just "settings" but no, I don't think they do, but I honestly don't know.

[07:40] <Someoneis> can any one help me compile my madwifi package?
[07:40] <K1LL9> nmvicky, can i contact you in PM, its annoying following all these post in this channel?
[07:41] <myownserver> Hey ppl, does anyone here know about BIND9 DNS?
[07:41] <Phelix> roachy i followed this to set it all up https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN
[07:41] <leaf-sheep> noob: "aptitude search linux-image- linux-headers-" (it'll list the packages; i for installed)
[07:41] <roachy> @Phelix just having a look at the guide
[07:42] <toupeiro> Man, IRC is so nostalgic :)  How busy does this room usually get about now?
[07:42] <Phelix> KK it wont start the daemon
[07:42] <myownserver> I've got a few questions regarding the purpose of DNS Servers.
[07:42] <roachy> @Phelix as I've not used that guide before
[07:42] <dotblank> this channel can get very busy
[07:42] <darlek> how to determine the blocksize of a ext2 drive?  I'm trying to get superblock information so I can run e2fsck -b option
[07:42] <Ben64> toupeiro: The room currently has 1255 people.
[07:42] <noob> leaf then what?
[07:42] <toupeiro> myownserver: DNS servers correlate IP addresses and qualified names and/or aliases
[07:42] <nmvicky> KILL9:did you get help?
[07:43] <Someoneis> can someone help me compile my madwifi package i extracted? i need help
[07:43] <myownserver> @toupeiro, I know how they work and function, my question is how does having my own benefit me and what are it's potential uses?
[07:43] <darlek> Someoneis, what happened with the link?  how'd that go?
[07:43] <noob> nvm i figured out
[07:43] <Someoneis> yeah, it was cool but all he says is compile it
[07:44] <darlek> cd bin
[07:44] <nmvicky> Someoneis, what package is that?
[07:44] <Someoneis> so i type make and i get this message /lib/modules/2.6.27-14-generic/build is missing, please set KERNELPATH.  Stop.
[07:44] <Someoneis> the madwifi one i just downloaded
[07:44] <toupeiro> myownserver:  That would depend on how many hosts you work with.  So, hosting your own DNS would allow you to hit all of your network resources by name, regardless of IP address if using DHCP
[07:44] <K1LL9> nmvicky, moorthyvsm is helping me now, thanks :)
[07:44] <Ben64> Someoneis: usually there are 3 steps to compilation, "./configure", "make", and "make install"
[07:45] <dotblank> Someoneis: you should have linux image headers installed
[07:45] <Someoneis> alright, thanks
[07:45] <darlek> Someoneis, you need the linux-headers and linux-port-headers I think
[07:45] <toupeiro> myownserver: alternatively, you can use local hostfiles to do the same thing, but its definitely a more hands on approach
[07:45] <Someoneis> how can i get that?
[07:45] <darlek> Someoneis, try kernel.org
[07:45] <Someoneis> alright, thanks
[07:45] <nmvicky> KILL9:thanks
[07:45] <Ben64> myownserver: usually it's easier using a public dns
[07:45] <Ben64> <IP_ADDRESS> is a good one
[07:45] <Someoneis> i will let you know how it worked, one last question, who gave me the link to hyperandy website? who ever it was, many thanks.
[07:45] <kpkudi> does anyone know how to stop window contents from showing upon movement in openbox
[07:46] <toupeiro> myownserver: I agree
[07:46] <noob> leaf thanks for your help
[07:46] <toupeiro> myownserver: openDNS.org is what I use
[07:46] <Mud> opendns \o/
[07:46] <nmvicky> I have tried repairing my usb flash disk using fdisk to no avail, anyone with some more powerfull program in mind?
[07:46] <noob> i thing it will work but let me rebbot my pc
[07:46] <myownserver> As far as domain name management, such as mydomain.com and it's sub-domains, would it be beneficial to host my own DNS server for it?
[07:46] <Ben64> opendns sucked last time i used them
[07:46] <noob> think*
[07:47] <darlek> any way to determine if drive is ext2 or ext3?
