[07:00] <maxxist> Ganandorf  check permissions...
[07:00] <ziroday> IndyGunFreak: sorry, he had told me he had done that :)
[07:00] <mindframe> where do i throw that line ziroday ?
[07:00] <IndyGunFreak> ziroday: if he done that and its not working, then he's likely using 64bit
[07:00] <mindframe> err what section
[07:00] <Noxilenticus> brb under leopard I only have two gigs of ram in this machine, not quite enough to be an elite VM user
[07:00] <maxxist> Noxilenticus would love apt to be ported to mac.
[07:00] <ziroday> mindframe: erm in the Section "Device" area
[07:01] <corinth> ziroday, IndyGunFreak, I already installed the linux-backports-modules-intrepid-generic package. It's on the CD.
[07:01] <Ganandorf> maxxist:  i tried that and nothing
[07:01] <IndyGunFreak> corinth: are you using 64bit?
[07:01] <Ademan> if grep swap /etc/mtab  doesn't output anything, but swapon -s *does* however reports the priority as -1 (and usage as 0) does that mean ubuntu isn't using my swap?
[07:01] <outbackwifi> !hi
[07:01] <NeuroSyn> I have another probably silly question, is there a program...or something, to edit the icons on gnome? I'm looking around at icon themes on gnome-look.org, unfortunately, I don't know how to install them?
[07:01] <Josesordo> someone can send me a link that explain good How to install very well the driver of ATI Radeon HD 2600??
[07:01] <maxxist> ganondorf they wont play on the psp or the computer you used to copy them?
[07:01] <ziroday> corinth: IndyGunFreak: correct, thats the way you were meant to do it :)
[07:01] <mindframe> ziroday, so compiz wont work with nvidia xinerama?
[07:01] <corinth> That's when the second driver showed up in the hardware drivers. The "Support for 5xxx series of Atheros 802.11 wireless LAN cards" one. The one that's activated but not in use. Yes, 64 bit
[07:02] <ziroday> mindframe: mmm, I know compiz will have issues
[07:02] <maxxist> Noxilenticus lol  thats all i got is 2gb.
[07:02] <IndyGunFreak> corinth: then you should learn to read instructions clearly, i doubt thats gonna work w/ 64bit...
[07:02] <ziroday> !pm > Josesordo
[07:02] <IndyGunFreak> corinth: did you disable the driver that it told you to?
[07:02] <Ganandorf> maxxist:  the files are playing on the computer but since i renamed the folder containing them i can't copy it across to a flash or the psp card
[07:02] <outbackwifi> NeuroSyn: use system->preferences->appearance to add the icons if you are on hardy
[07:03] <maxxist> Noxilenticus i run xubuntu under virtualbox.  i dont think i would have a problem with full gnome though.
[07:03] <corinth> IndyGunFreak, Yup.
[07:03] <Ganandorf> maxxist:  i get copy error invalid filename
[07:03] <corinth> Think it'll work better with the 32 bit version? I can install it instead, I'm still vanilla.
[07:03] <IndyGunFreak> corinth: well, i've done that on 3 different PCs(2 are mine), w/o issue at all and 32bit.
[07:03] <ziroday> corinth: it might do :)
[07:04] <bzaks> Is it possible to have a Linksys Router providing internet access, without running its internal DHCP server? I'd like to run a DHCP3-Server on a computer on my network (combined with Bind)
[07:04] <corinth> Alright guys, I'll try that.
[07:04] <maxxist> ganondorf i cant see how renaming a folder would do that. unless the destination doesnt support how many letters you renamed it to??????
[07:04] <NeuroSyn> outbackwifi, I see what you're talking about, I'm using Ibex, is there a way to add icons to that menu there?
[07:04] <Josesordo> How to install driver for ATI RAdeon HD 2600 in ubuntu 8.04??
[07:04] <Ganandorf> maxxist:  i get this There was an error creating the folder "John_Legend-Evolver-(Deluxe_Edition)-2008 " details invalid filename
[07:04] <outbackwifi> bzaks: yes, connect the dhcp server to the lan port instead of the internet port of the router
[07:04] <outbackwifi> NeuroSyn: dont know, havent got ibex  yet
[07:05] <joot> I have just installed 8.10 I am getting a black screen after log on. Any one help with this please??
[07:05] <NeuroSyn> outbackwifi, oh well, thanks anyway
[07:05] <bzaks> outbackwifi: so then if I run the DHCP Server, will I still have the protection of NAT provided by the Router?
[07:05] <maxxist> ganondorf try renaming the file to a smaller filename.  maybe the psp doesnt support such large file names
[07:05] <Ganandorf> maxxist:  i shortened the name and i tried with another folder i moved it across and it copied and when i renamed it after and tried again it would not
[07:05] <maxxist> hmm
[07:05] <tpro> off a fresh install, i'm getting errors on my sr0 device which it says is a dvd rom, but /dev/scd0 is mounted and works w/out problems?  are sr0 and scd0 different? (i only have 1 dvd drive)
[07:05] <outbackwifi> bzaks: no, the nat will be done by your dsl/cable modem
[07:05] <GodfatherofEire1> Any ideas as to why files have problems going from my ZEN to my laptop, but not the other way around?
[07:06] <maxxist> ganondorf how are you copying the files?  over usb with the psp plugged in?
[07:06] <spolvid> IndyGunFreak: How much space should I give a Ubuntu partition?
[07:06] <sken> hello ubu guys
[07:06] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: the zen being a music player?
[07:06] <legend2440> Josesordo: open system>Administration>hardware drivers  is there a box there to enable the ati drivers?
[07:06] <outbackwifi> !hi | sken
[07:06] <Ganandorf> maxxist:  no through my pro duo port in my printer
[07:06] <GodfatherofEire1> You'd be right outbackwifi
[07:07] <sken> does anybody know anything about this error avc nal size 0 in mplayer
[07:07] <IndyGunFreak> spolvid: it depends on what all you plan to do with it... i would think at least 10gigs so you can install some things, etc.
[07:07] <bzaks> outbackwifi: So the dhcp server is just like any other computer on the network. The modem usually gives the router an IP, now where does that IP go?
[07:07] <maxxist> ganondorf can try other files copying to the card?  like a small txt file or something...
[07:07] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: what are you using to send files to the zen; ive found amarok & rhythmbox work great
[07:07] <Ganandorf> maxxist:  i tired with another folder moved it it copied, renamed it and it would not copy
[07:07] <IndyGunFreak> spolvid: i would make sure you have a backup befoer you do any partitioning, etc.
[07:08] <spolvid> IndyGunFreak: I know.
[07:08] <Ganandorf> maxxist:  other files are copying but once they get renamed or their name is edited in any way i get a error
[07:08] <IndyGunFreak> ok
[07:08] <outbackwifi> bzaks: it doesnt matter cos the router will now act as an ap (access point) which dont need ip addresses for anything other than maintenance
[07:08] <Josesordo> legend2440: yes, is downloading a xorg file
[07:08] <kostja> just installed 8.10 64 bit and my network(wireless) does freeze all ten minute
[07:08] <GodfatherofEire1> outbackwifi, using rhythmbox, but it just refuses to transfer files from the zen, but has no problems transferring it to the zen
[07:08] <kostja> i have installed 8.10 64 bit and my network connection does freeze all ca. 5 minute
[07:09] <maxxist> ganondorf  what is the purpose of renaming the files?  maybe rename them before copying them over????
[07:09] <sken> does anybody know anything about this error avc nal size 0 in mplayer?
[07:09] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: what might those errors be?
[07:09] <maxxist> kostja i had lots of problems earlier today with a new install of 8.10 and my network.
[07:09] <Ganandorf> some of the artist are wrong for whats contained inside the folder and thats the prob once i rename them before copying i can't get them to copy
[07:09] <GodfatherofEire1> outbackwifi: it just doesnt transfer
[07:10] <GodfatherofEire1> outbackwifi I set it to transfer, it begins the process, but nothin goes to my computer
[07:10] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: does the zen show up as a usb storage device in /media ?
[07:10] <maxxist> kostja i was able to finally get it to do a kernel update and it seemed to fix the network problems.
[07:10] <GodfatherofEire1> Nope
[07:10] <bzaks> outbackwifi: yes, but who is getting that external IP that the router usually gets? If the modem is plugged in a lan port, won't it try to give every computer on the net an address?
[07:11] <Ganandorf> maxxist:  what could be the prob
[07:11] <kostja> maxxist, thanks, how can get this update now, i have to work:(
[07:11] <redfish> the router would still get it
[07:11] <maxxist> ganondorf i think its your method.  i am guessin at thispoint
[07:11] <outbackwifi> bzaks: oh i see, you mean  that the modem is in bridged mode?
[07:11] <GodfatherofEire1> outbackwifi, doesnt show up under media
[07:12] <Ganandorf> maxxist:  i am using drag and drop i tried copy and paste nothing
[07:12] <maxxist> ganondorf manually one at a time?
[07:12] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: can you pastebin the last few lines of your dmesg after you plugin your zen?
[07:12] <Ganandorf> maxxist:  yep
[07:12] <GodfatherofEire1> dmesg?
[07:12] <maxxist> kostja i was able to let it sit for a long time and it finally was able to download the update...
[07:12] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: type dmesg in a terminal
[07:13] <bzaks> outbackwifi: Well, I'm not sure what mode its in, but the router has 2 IPs, an external IP and an internal IP. The external is what the world sees, and the internal is what all of my computers see. The external IP is set via my ISP through the modem. Right now, the internal is set up through the dhcp server in the modem.
[07:13] <outbackwifi> bzaks: in that case, you have two options; 1) configure the modem as a router (if its capable) 2) disable dhcp server on modem and let the router be as it was
[07:14] <bzaks> outbackwifi: I'm not sure I can do that, I'm pretty sure that Comcast has their modems locked down pretty tight
[07:14] <outbackwifi> bzaks: if the modem has 2 ips, then it is a router too; so connect the lan side of the modem to one of the lan ports of your wireless router and disable dhcp on that
[07:14] <GodfatherofEire1> outbackwifi http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/69120/
[07:14] <maxxist> ganondorf can u try using the mem stick in the psp and plug the psp in to do the file management?  possibly something wrong with the way your printer is handling the files????
[07:15] <outbackwifi> bzaks: all the machines on the lan side will now gett their ips from the modem instead of the wireless router
[07:15] <sao3> hi all
[07:15] <kostja> maxxist, where can i find this update?
[07:15] <maxxist> kostja are you using static IPS?
[07:15] <Ganandorf> maxxist:  hmm don't have a usb cord for it i guess i will have to get it from my friend again and not change the name
[07:15] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: the device hadnt settled down. can you paste some more please?
[07:16] <maxxist> ganondorf  sorry bro.  i dont know what else it could be at this point.
[07:16] <bzaks> screw it, I'll just do it the way I think should work.
[07:16] <redfish> bzaks, your modem is not giving the router the internal address.
[07:16] <kostja> no a have i router for my laptop
[07:16] <maxxist> kostja is your network dhcp or static?
[07:16] <redfish> just disable the DHCP server in the Linksys router
[07:17] <sken> does anybody know anything about this error avc nal size 0 in mplayer
[07:17] <bzaks> redfish: but do I connect the modem to the internet port still and let the router be referenced as the main gateway through dhcp?
[07:17] <redfish> plug the modem to the WAN port of the router, you computers to the LAN port, and your DHCP server to a LAN port
[07:18] <|neon|> i'm having a strange problem, i can change my desktop settings and everything works fine, but once i reboot the settings are lost everytime, i tried session manager but not luck,  any suggestions?
[07:18] <maxxist> kostja i was just wondering.  cause i run static ip's on my network.  thought it might be a problem.  I found the network manager in 8.10 to be a little bit broken.  it was changing numbers i had manually entered and saved.  after i would go back in they were completely different.
[07:18] <redfish> why not use the Linksys' built in DHCP server?
[07:18] <Socapex_2K> Hello, Just for record. I've just upgraded to 8.10. Before I was having trouble with sound. I couldn't hear anything. Now everything is fine (at least on initial test of rythm box). My edirol ua-5 is working on OSS.
[07:18] <GodfatherofEire1> outbackwifi http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/69121/
[07:18] <bzaks> redfish: Because I want to set up a name server as well as run PXEBoot stuff.
[07:18] <Socapex_2K> love it :)
[07:19] <redfish> Socapex_2K, 8.10 works great here too ;-)
[07:19] <kostja> dhcp
[07:19] <kostja> again a network freeze, dhcp
[07:19] <redfish> bzaks: oic
[07:19] <chainoo> #ubuntu-es
[07:19] <Socapex_2K> rock on ubuntu, hehe
[07:20] <kostja> i will try to change to static ip or complete without networkmanager
[07:20] <Brucee> how do i find out what is it on ubuntu server?
[07:20] <joot> I have just installed 8.10 I am getting a black screen after log on. Any one help with this please?? The only thing that works is terminal emulator.
[07:20] <maxxist> kostja i was using 64bit also when having these problems.  you can download .debs manually for the newer kernel..  but its not fun.. hehe
[07:20] <maxxist> joot do you have multiple monitors?
[07:20] <kostja> maxxist where can i find this debs?
[07:20] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: hmm your zen isnt detected and there are a whole bunch of i/o errors on sr0
[07:21] <maxxist> kostja at ubuntu site.  you can find the updates there...
[07:21] <Socapex_2K> joot: do you have ati card?
[07:21] <joot> maxxist: No but I have an intel shred memory which may be part of the prob
[07:21] <GodfatherofEire1> outbackwifi, Well rythmbox recognizes it, as do most other processes, I just cant transfer files off it.
[07:21] <kostja> maxxist, thank you so mauch, i hope it will solve my problem
[07:22] <maxxist> joot hmm.  should not be.  intel is well supported.
[07:22] <Omeil> !dhcp3
[07:22] <GodfatherofEire1> I can transfer files onto it without incident though outbackwifi
[07:22] <maxxist> kostja hope so too man
[07:22] <joot> Socapex_2K; Intel shared
[07:22] <Omeil> !dhcp
[07:22] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: normally when you try to send from the device to the pc, these devices look for some kind of a handshake from a client program
[07:23] <joot> Maxxist: seems OK till logon then just locks up with a black screen
[07:23] <NeuroSyn> Is there a way to remove a partition from the gnome-mount thing? So that it doesn't show up in places, and what not?
[07:23] <kostja> maxxist, which version of kernel is it?
[07:23] <Socapex_2K> joot: Can't help, sorry :)
[07:24] <joot> Maxxist: Did the install twice just in case of a residual problem
[07:24] <Omeil> does anyone know how to use dhcp3-server i have followed tuts but i keep getting these lines: * Stopping DHCP server dhcpd3 [fail] then straight after * Starting DHCP server dhcpd3 [fail]
[07:24] <joot> Socapex_2K: thanks any way :)
[07:24] <rumba-samba> http://battlefright.de
[07:24] <GodfatherofEire1> So, outbackwifi, sny ideas on what to do so that I can transfer files from my ZEN?
[07:24] <Socapex_2K> NeuroSyn: Can you explain a little bit better. In details
[07:24] <maxxist> kostja i think it ends with a 7
[07:24] <ziroday> GodfatherofEire1: have you tried using mtpfs?
[07:24] <maxxist> kostja i think its 2.6.27-7
[07:25] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: apparently its an MTP device so wont show up as usb mass storage.
[07:25] <Socapex_2K> NeuroSyn: What do you want to achieve. Specifically
[07:25] <kostja> 2.6.27-7-generic <- this i my version
[07:25] <maxxist> kostja i think its 2.6.27-7 make sure you get 64bit
[07:25] <Brucee> is there a command to find out what time is it on a server?
[07:25] <GodfatherofEire1> ziroday, the last time I did that I had more errors than my old windows computer
[07:25] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: you need to use Kzenexplorer
[07:25] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: this might help --> http://backports.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=216191
[07:25] <maxxist> joot you say you have cli?
[07:25] <GodfatherofEire1> outbackwifi: thats just it: that's the one program that doesnt recognize it
[07:25] <NeuroSyn> Socapex_2K, well, if I look under my places menu, there's a partition showing that it will ask me to mount if I click on it, I hope to achieve the partition NOT being listed on places, and elsewhere.
[07:26] <nicholaspaul> Q: Synaptic says 'Unable to lock the list directory' when i try to Reload ... there is no other app open. I did edit sources.list with Gedit but restored the backed up version...how can i fix it?
[07:26] <ttmrichter> Anybody out there using an sis900 for ethernet?  And if so, did the latest kernel update bork it for you too?
[07:26] <redfish> Omeil: did you try this one: http://www.howtoforge.com/dhcp_server_linux_debian_sarge
[07:26] <joot> Maxxist:  Cli??
[07:26] <maxxist> kostja are you able to do the updates through synaptic?  i know your net shuts down on you.  but does it come back up on its own?
[07:26] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: have you also seen this -> http://libmtp.sourceforge.net/
[07:26] <maxxist> joot sorry command line
[07:27] <NeuroSyn> Socapex_2K, does that make sense?
[07:27] <joot> Maxxist:  Sorry   yes!!
[07:27] <Socapex_2K> NeuroSyn: hmmm, let me see a bit. I thought this was about grub, so I might not be of too much help.
[07:27] <bzaks> omeil: did you edit the /etc/default/dhcp3-server ?
[07:27] <bzaks> omeil: you need to set a default interface
[07:27] <Socapex_2K> NeuroSyn: just a min
[07:27] <maxxist> joot second please.
[07:27] <NeuroSyn> Socapex_2K, sure =) thanks for trying either way
[07:28] <Mythril> How do I go about playing RealMedia files in Intrepid?
[07:28] <joot> Maxxist:  No hurry
[07:28] <GodfatherofEire1> outbackwifi libmtp is installed
[07:28] <bzaks> mythril: look into mediubuntu
[07:28] <outbackwifi> Mythril: download the realplayer 11 deb
[07:28] <GodfatherofEire1> As are the -dev files for it
[07:28] <Mythril> outbackwifi: 64bit
[07:28] <Mythril> outbackwifi: the deb they have is for i386 distro
[07:28] <nicholaspaul> Can someone help me with my Synaptic problem?
[07:29] <sken> does anybody know anything about this error avc nal size 0 in mplayer?
[07:29] <Omeil> bzaks, i edited /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf
[07:29] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: try all the progs here --> http://libmtp.sourceforge.net/downstream.php
[07:29] <kostja> maxxist yes
[07:29] <outbackwifi> Mythril: what about the helix player?
[07:29] <bzaks> omeil: but did you edit /etc/default/dhcp3-server ? its another file
[07:29] <ziroday> GodfatherofEire1: I believe you have tried gnomad2?
[07:29] <Omeil> bzaks, nope
[07:29] <|neon|> i'm having a strange problem, i can change my desktop settings and everything works fine, but once i reboot the settings are lost everytime, i tried session manager but not luck,  any suggestions?
[07:29] <frybye> nicholaspaul: what the prob exactly...?
[07:29] <maxxist> joot can you do a "sudo apt-get upgrade"   and let it do updates.  maybe it will grab a new driver or kernel first...
[07:29] <nicholaspaul> Q: Synaptic says 'Unable to lock the list directory' when i try to Reload ... there is no other app open. I did edit sources.list with Gedit but restored the backed up version...how can i fix it?
[07:30] <nicholaspaul> frybye: ^
[07:30] <bzaks> omeil: Check it out. You need to set a interface for DHCP3-server to run on
[07:30] <redfish> nicholaspaul: are you using apt-get with synaptics open?
[07:30] <GodfatherofEire1> Ziroday, yep, tried that, kze, amarok, banshee, and rhythmbox, all had at least one problem with it
[07:30] <maxxist> kostja sweet try it out.  you might get lucky and grab the files you need to fix it...
[07:30] <GodfatherofEire1> problem/bug
[07:30] <nicholaspaul> redfish: nope. nothing else open.
[07:30] <frybye> nicholaspaul: I dont have a clue - sombody will though... ;)
[07:30] <nicholaspaul> frybye: thanks :)
[07:30] <maxxist> kostja its way easier than hunting down a kernel to manually install..
[07:30] <name_name_> uh my gdm fails to start T_T
[07:30] <ziroday> GodfatherofEire1: unfortunatly mtp and its apps are notoriously buggy, what exactly are you trying to do?
[07:30] <Omeil> bzaks, i added eth0 between the semi colons
[07:31] <GodfatherofEire1> ziroday, just tryin to get some of the music on my zen onto the laptop
[07:31] <nicholaspaul> redfish: i did have a failed apt-get that I CTRL-Z'd ... i'm thinking it has locked something
[07:31] <Socapex_2K> NeuroSyn:  I'll have to give this to someone else. I remember using the option, but I can't remember what :) Sorry, hope somebody can help. I'll keep looking a bit still
[07:31] <Socapex_2K> Ciao
[07:31] <bzaks> omeil: between the semi colons? they're quote marks in that file.
[07:31] <outbackwifi> nicholaspaul: what happens when you type sudo apt-get update with synaptics closed?
[07:31] <joot> Maxxist:   already tried that and it comes back with errors sugesting to update when I update it comes back with errors also
[07:31] <ziroday> nicholaspaul: do you have update manager or some other package management application open at the same time?
[07:31] <Omeil> bzaks, ah yeah quote marks i mean lol
[07:31] <bzaks> Omeil: restart dhcp3-server
[07:31] <Omeil> bzaks, still same error msg tho :(
[07:31] <ziroday> GodfatherofEire1: well I know that gnomad2 can do that
[07:31] <maxxist> joot any specific errors you can mention?
[07:31] <reverendnathan> Oh hay guys, problem. Something is hemorraging space. I never have any room, and can't restart because I end up with so little free space xorg doesn't start. Is there perhaps an immediate diagnosis or a visualization of my hard drive I can obtain?
[07:31] <NeuroSyn> Socapex_2K, thanks =)
[07:31] <bzaks> omeil: what's /var/log/syslog say?
[07:32] <nicholaspaul> ziroday: no

[07:32] <bzaks> rev-nathan: what's df -k say?
[07:32] <outbackwifi> reverendnathan: du -h should give you a clue
[07:32] <GodfatherofEire1> Ziroday, you have a point, it works fine for taking stuff off, just not for putting it on there
[07:32] <NeuroSyn> Does anyone know how to remove a partition from showing up in the Places menu?
[07:32] <maxxist> joot wow.  never seen that error
[07:32] <GodfatherofEire1> Then its a pain
[07:32] <maxxist> joot sec i google.
[07:32] <GodfatherofEire1> Wait a sec
[07:33] <nicholaspaul> outbackwifi: i get the same error, unable to lock
[07:33] <joot> Maxxist:   micro atx do you want the number
[07:33] <ziroday> GodfatherofEire1: I know, I use banshee for the other way around
[07:33] <GodfatherofEire1> Ziroday, now I remember why I dont use that
[07:33] <ddd> hi, I have have huawei E 169 grps/g3 modem.   It works instantly in ubuntu 8.10 ;  But how to make it work in 8.04 ?
[07:33] <GodfatherofEire1> It closes when transfering off for me
[07:33] <nicholaspaul> outbackwifi: i get the same error, unable to lock the list directory (sorry about that )
[07:33] <GodfatherofEire1> No idea why
[07:33] <maxxist> joot new board?
[07:33] <redfish> nicholaspaul: dunno, maybe apt-get is frozen?
[07:33] <Brucee> how do i know what time is it on my ubuntu server?
[07:33] <outbackwifi> nicholaspaul: whats the output of this command ps -fe| grep apt  (pastebin it please)
[07:33] <nicholaspaul> redfish: yea i think so
[07:33] <ziroday> ddd: you can try install the new network manager from thier ppa
[07:33] <Mythril> outbackwifi: the helix player claims that the server I am connecting to doesn't respect the protocol (which is odd because mplayer will play the video, just not the audio)
[07:33] <redfish> nicholaspaul: you rebooted?
[07:33] <kostja> maxxist, sorry i can't find 64 bit kernel
[07:33] <ziroday> nicholaspaul: try restarting
[07:33] <nicholaspaul> redfish: i logged out and in again
[07:33] <outbackwifi> Mythril: lol  ")
[07:34] <nicholaspaul> outbackwifi: 1 sec
[07:34] <ziroday> GodfatherofEire1: you tried copying of one at a time, its buggy :)
[07:34] <joot> Maxxist:  NO it is old with ddr 400mhz ram and 2.4 celeron
[07:34] <sysdoc> I've got vmware-server installed and have seen a few tutorials that have instructions on how to load XP from it's partition. Has anyone here successfully accomplished this?
[07:34] <ddd> ziroday: how to do this?
[07:34] <outbackwifi> Brucee: type date in a terminal
[07:34] <ziroday> ddd: one sec
[07:34] <Socapex_2K> 8.10 Rocks! woohoo, African herbsman
[07:34] <redfish> nicholaspaul: try "sudo pkill apt"
[07:34] <name_name_> hey #ubuntu is when I try to run gdm it doesn't start.
[07:34] <name_name_> says faile
[07:34] <ddd> ziroday:  also, I have no network on 8.04 (but I can boot 8.10 on same box -  and i.e. download by hand some .deb files)
[07:34] <name_name_> *failed
[07:34] <Omeil> !paste
[07:34] <kelli> is there any way to lock the penal on the screan allthe time?
[07:34] <GodfatherofEire1> ziroday, yeah, there were entire blocks of files that would cause it to shut down
[07:34] <maxxist> kostja i know your net is shutting down but can you try synaptic for the update?  you may get lucky and it might grab those files before it shuts down on you.
[07:35] <ziroday> ddd: you need to add this repo to your /etc/apt/soruces.list
[07:35] <GodfatherofEire1> Ziroday, it just became impractical pretty quick
[07:35] <nicholaspaul> outbackwifi: oh, i'm just restarting...
[07:35] <maxxist> joot  which version did you install on it?
[07:35] <outbackwifi> nicholaspaul: oh ok
[07:35] <nicholaspaul> :)
[07:35] <ziroday> GodfatherofEire1: libmtp is a buggy mess
[07:35] <Omeil> bzaks, http://paste.ubuntu.com/69128/
[07:35] <GodfatherofEire1> ziroday, ha, yeah, i know
[07:35] <outbackwifi> GodfatherofEire1: anything with a Microsoft tag is buggy
[07:36] <GodfatherofEire1> outbackwifi: agreed
[07:36] <bzaks> What do you think Omeil?
[07:36] <joot> Maxxist:  386 arch 8.10 release
[07:36] <reverendnathan> bzaks: /dev/sda1            100790004  95618800     51292 100% /
[07:36] <ziroday> GodfatherofEire1: well thats all I can recommend, sorry, you might want to mail the libmtp authors and see if the project is still even near alive
[07:36] <maxxist> joot desktop or alternate?
[07:36] <bzaks> rev-nathan: what about du -h ?
[07:36] <reverendnathan> Flannel: Nothing over 385kb
[07:36] <corinth> IndyGunFreak, ziroday, works great. Thanks. :)
[07:36] <Omeil> bzaks, have to declare subnet in the conf?
[07:36] <GodfatherofEire1> ziroday, I'll manage to figure out somethin
[07:36] <ddd> ziroday: can you paste me the name of the repo or the line to add?
[07:36] <reverendnathan> outbackwifi: nah, nothin exceeding 300mb at lease.
[07:36] <ziroday> corinth: 32bit and the intrepid backports module?
[07:37] <computer_> how come when i click Applications the menu opens while open i try to lower the volume but does not work. why do i have to minimize the menu in order to for the volume to work?
[07:37] <joot> Maxxist:  desktop the one with the live option.
[07:37] <tomp> anyone gotten vmware server 2 to run under hardy?
[07:37] <maxxist> joot when you booted the live cd did you get a desktop?
[07:37] <Flannel> reverendnathan: How about df -h
[07:37] <IndyGunFreak> corinth: good to hear... i figured it would work fine w/ 32bit.
[07:37] <bzaks> Omeil: correct. You also need to kill the other DHCP server.
[07:37] <outbackwifi> reverendnathan: and df -h shows 100% on root partition?
[07:37] <corinth> ziroday, Yup.
[07:37] <ziroday> ddd: certaintly, deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/network-manager/ubuntu hardy main
[07:37] <ziroday> corinth: awesome!
[07:37] <GodfatherofEire1> ziroday Amarok worked in 8.04, but this is 8.10, so worst comes to worst, I put it on those comps, and use rsync to transfer
[07:37] <maxxist> joot no errors on install?
[07:38] <ddd> how to download package  foo   from  a repo  to a .deb file so I can take it to a no-network system?
[07:38] <joot> Maxxist:  No desktop on live so I went for the install instead
[07:38] <computer_> why can't i hear the other video player's volume while i have a youtube video at the same time?
[07:38] <ziroday> ddd: can you attach a ethernet cable briefly?
[07:38] <joot> Maxxist:  I saw no errors I watched the install
[07:38] <kostja> maxxist, okay, generic is a 64 bit kernel for me
[07:38] <ddd> ziroday: no :/
[07:39] <amdpox> ddd, there's an apt command to save the deb, lemme have a look
[07:39] <reverendnathan> outbackwifi: yes
[07:39] <ziroday> ddd: err, well then you will have to download all the files listed on https://launchpad.net/~network-manager/+archive and install them
[07:39] <ddd> or,     ziroday:   can I take an 8.10 install CD and use it to upgrade   my 8.04  to 8.10  without using network?
[07:39] <ziroday> ddd: is the cd an alternate cd or a desktop cd?
[07:39] <reverendnathan> Flannel: /dev/sda1              97G   92G   50M 100% /
[07:39] <nicholaspaul> outbackwifi ziroday There, a restart  fixed it ! Cheers!
[07:40] <joot> Maxxist:  The same problem occurs with the live option gets to welcome then dies
[07:40] <maxxist> joot
[07:40] <maxxist> sorry
[07:40] <maxxist> joot try out this from command line.    sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org
[07:41] <amph3t4m1n3> hi all, i just installed an ftp server on my server with a new ftp user who's home is the domain i want it to be able to access, login works, but i get permission denied on file transfers.. somone care to steer me in the right direction pls?
[07:41] <Flannel> reverendnathan: That takes talent.  And nothing in / is abnormally large?
[07:41] <maxxist> joot then if no error do a reboot
[07:41] <joot> Maxxist: OK I need to change to a different machine the 8.10 is not online
[07:42] <maxxist> joot you know the command for reboot is restart right...
[07:42] <redfish> nicholaspaul: coulda typed sudo pkill apt
[07:42] <xavieran> hi
[07:42] <redfish> nicholaspaul: guess you already restarted when i sent that msg
[07:43] <ddd> ziroday: I can download either.  which to get?
[07:43] <xavieran> When I log in to ubuntu I get this error message, and the login fails: mkdtemp failed: permission denied
[07:43] <ziroday> ddd: you need the alternate cd if you want to upgrade 8.04 to 8.10 using a cd
[07:43] <nicholaspaul> redfish: yea i had! Thanks! I'll try to remember for next time.
[07:45] <ddd> http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.10/ubuntu-8.10-alternate-amd64.iso.torrent
[07:45] <ddd> ziroday: ^ this one?
[07:45] <ziroday> ddd: thats fine
[07:45] <ddd> that CD is all that I need to upgrade  a non-network  box with 8.04 desktop amd64  to  8.10   right?
[07:45] <ziroday> ddd: correct
[07:45] <ddd> what do I do when I have the cd?
[07:46] <ziroday> !upgrade | ddd
[07:46] <legend2440> xavieran: http://mihirknows.blogspot.com/2008/06/mkdtemp-private-socket-dir-permission.html
[07:46] <napsy_> Hello. Is it normal that that the amd64 version of ubuntu consumes more RAM then i386 version?
[07:46] <xavieran> thank you Lenny_
[07:46] <martin_> hi
[07:46] <reverendnathan> Flannel: Right. I'm having real trouble finding this out since I moved ALL of my media to my other HDD, so this would have to be from some program. Clearing history in my internet didn't do squat, so I assume it's not FF. Anything else notorious for eating up free space?
[07:46] <computer_> how do i set my sound settings back to its original state?
[07:46] <xavieran> *legend2440 (Xchat's autocompletion...) :D
[07:47] <sken> does anybody know anything about this error avc nal size 0 in mplayer
[07:47] <legend2440> xavieran: yes thats what i figured
[07:47] <outbackwifi> reverendnathan: go to /var/log/messages and do a du -h inside this directory; pastebin the output of that
[07:47] <ziroday> sken: the people in #mplayer are experts
[07:47] <sken> thx
[07:48] <chandraneelnr> can aybody here help me out with ubuntu 8.10 (Network connection)
[07:48] <ziroday> reverendnathan: do you have beagle installed?
[07:48] <raheem> chandraneelnr: please be be more specific
[07:49] <reverendnathan> ziroday: Only archiving thing I have is SimplifyMedia
[07:49] <reverendnathan> outbackwifi: OK hold on
[07:49] <ziroday> reverendnathan: ah okay, beagle is notorious for making huge indexing files, there goes my idea :)
[07:49] <outbackwifi> !anyone | chandraneelnr
[07:50] <reverendnathan> outbackwifi: not a directory. /var/log totals 5.5Mb
[07:50] <outbackwifi> reverendnathan: are you on ubuntu?
[07:51] <ddd> if on one box I have 8.04 and 8.10 installent,      but no network,  is there some clever way to upgrade the 8.04 using files from 8.10 ?
[07:52] <maxxist> ddd need network for that
[07:52] <reverendnathan> outbackwifi: kubuntu 8.x
[07:52] <maxxist> at least a direct network connection between the two computers
[07:52] <raz> anyone know how to make hybrid suspend the default on lid close? i can't find the starting point in the acpi scripts, where does it actually call the suspend command?
[07:52] <chandraneelnr> well i have a dial-up modem. i have used scanmodem and configured the modem. But when i do sudo wvdial, it shows 'not a valid phone usrname and password'. Although the usrname etc. work well in windows and 8.04 but cannot do it in 8.10
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> ddd: if you have the alternate install CD, i believe you can upgrade from it.
[07:53] <outbackwifi> reverendnathan: yours is the first ubuntu that didnt have the /var/log/ as a directory :)
[07:53] <joot> Maxxist: Yes for restart.. error /usr/bin/dpkg reconfigure xserver_org not installed... If I apt get install I get message that latest version is intalled
[07:54] <reverendnathan> outbackwifi: /var/log is there, /var/log/messages/ is not one.
[07:54] <maxxist> joot your install is borked.  you need to reinstall.
[07:55] <maxxist> joot might i suggest downloading the install disc again.
[07:55] <chandraneelnr> in 8.04 there is an option for network configuration where one is supposed to enter details such as target number, username, password but no such option exits in 8.10
[07:55] <outbackwifi> reverendnathan: oh ok my bad (didnt realize that i had asked you to cd to /var/log/messages)
[07:55] <maxxist> joot  i always suggest the alternate install disc.
[07:55] <outbackwifi> reverendnathan: can you cd to /var/log and then run du -h . inside it pls
[07:55] <maxxist> joot its a little less pretty of an installer but it works well
[07:55] <blame> How come ubuntu hasn't upgraded ekiga to 3.0 when ubuntu was upgraded to 8.10?
[07:56] <joot> Maxxist: OK I think I will completely format the thing to get rid of any cruft. I do not have the alternate disc
[07:56] <Flannel> blame: Because 3.0 wasn't stable when 8.10 was released
[07:56] <maxxist> joot you can download from ubuntu site.
[07:56] <reverendnathan> outbackwifi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/69131/
[07:56] <blame> Flannel: any way to get ekiga 3 now?
[07:56] <chandraneelnr> people will anybody answer my query?????
[07:56] <maxxist> joot i think your original disc is bad.  you said you tried to install twice with it?
[07:57] <joot> Maxxist: Alright I will do that I am not too worried about a pretty install screen as long as the end result is good
[07:57] <Flannel> blame: There may be a backport from jaunty available.  You could file a backport request.
[07:57] <Flannel> !backport | blame
[07:58] <maxxist> joot its still got a simple installer.  pretty much guided.  just doesnt have a desktop.  very easy to follow though.
[07:58] <blame> thanks
[07:58] <maxxist> joot but it will install a desktop for you bro
[07:58] <joot> Maxxist: Yes but I also have a rc version and that is not going in either
[07:59] <maxxist> joot yeah stick to stable man
[07:59] <kostja_> maxxist , i update has been made, but it's the same behavior
[07:59] <chandraneelnr> Modem query. Will anybody answer it???
[07:59] <maxxist> kostja_ is your whole network going down or just the ubuntu box?
[07:59] <joot> Cool I will go and d/l thanks for your help :))
[08:00] <maxxist> joot np.  hope it works out
[08:00] <joot> Maxxist: Will let you know
[08:00] <outbackwifi> reverendnathan: the logs look cool; how much disk space do you totally have?
[08:00] <kostja_> no, just my laptop, my phone is over ip and i have tested it, it works without problems
[08:00] <maxxist> joot i be here
[08:00] <Nillerz> Hi! How do I turn of xfce so I can run Fluxbox?
[08:00] <maxxist> kostja_ k that rules that out.
[08:01] <joot> Maxxist: Later then :)
[08:01] <ziroday> Nillerz: you can pick fluxbox at the login screen
[08:01] <Nillerz> I don't see any of those options at the login screen
[08:01] <ziroday> Nillerz: did you install fluxbox?
[08:01] <Nillerz> I see shut-down, restart, and saved sessions
[08:01] <Nillerz> yes I did install fluxbox
[08:01] <maxxist> kostja_ you are using dhcp or auto right?  what kind of network card are you using?
[08:01] <kostja_> dhcp
[08:02] <ziroday> Nillerz: err it should be called session or something like that, one sec
[08:02] <outbackwifi> reverendnathan: one area where you can immediately salvage some disk space is in your /usr/share/doc
[08:03] <firestorm> Is there a channel for jaunty yet?
[08:03] <outbackwifi> reverendnathan: just delete everything inside that directory as none of us reads the documentation (we come to #ubuntu straight)
[08:03] <ziroday> Nillerz: go to the bottom left and go to sessions
[08:03] <Flannel> firestorm: #ubuntu+1 will be it, and its likely still closed.
[08:03] <Nillerz> sessions you say? Okay, be right back then
[08:04] <egoflux> amarok is renaming some songs and no matter what i do it just keeps doing it
[08:04] <kostja_> maxxist, santa rose plattform, intel
[08:04] <egoflux> anyone seen this?
[08:04] <IvoryZion> mount: Key has expired <-- Getting this when mounting a CIFS file system on a Windows Vista machine... ? I'm running 8.10
[08:05] <WIGGMPk> Hello, im looking for a nice GUI app for converting audio files to different formats.. mainly ogg to mp3. Any thoughts???
[08:05] <|adam|> Does 8.10 have better power management support, specifically, laptops?
[08:05] <omegasix> I have a question regarding FireStarter and some strange traffic i'm getting from my ISP.  Can some one help me or direct me to a place where I can get help.  I dont follow
[08:06] <firestorm> Flannel: cheers
[08:06] <WIGGMPk> egoflux: ziroday: thanks both of you
[08:06] <egoflux> np
[08:07] <Flannel> WIGGMPk: mp3 and ogg are both lossy audio compression schemes (which means they throw data out to accomplish the compression).  Converting from one lossy format to another means you get information thrown out from encoding 1, and more information thrown out from encoding 2.  So your sound quality is much worse than if you ripped directly to encoding 2 (or went from a lossless codec, like FLAC, straight to encoding 2)
[08:08] <kostja_> maxxist ASUS A8SC
[08:08] <maxxist> kostja_ brb
[08:09] <WIGGMPk> Flannel: wow, I had no idea about that Flannel, thanks.. what if you only have an audio file that is already in a lossy form? what is the best way to proceed (if you need it to be in another format, say one that is more universally accepted?)
[08:09] <chandraneelnr> well i have a dial-up modem. i have used scanmodem and configured the modem. But when i do sudo wvdial, it shows 'not a valid phone usrname and password'. Although the usrname etc. work well in windows and 8.04 but cannot do it in 8.10   In 8.04 there is an option for network configuration where one is supposed to enter details such as target number, username, password but no such option exits in 8.10
[08:09] <kostja_> maxxist ?
[08:10] <|adam|> anyone running 8.10 on quad-screen with 2 video cards (NV)?
[08:10] <Flannel> WIGGMPk: Unfortunately theres no alternative if you need it in format B and only have it in format A.  In the future, if you're "archiving", rip to FLAC, which is lossless, and will allow you to encode in the format-of-the-month without any quality loss.
[08:10] <|neon|> i'm having a strange problem, i can change my desktop settings and everything works fine, but once i reboot the settings are lost everytime, i tried session manager but not luck,  any suggestions?
[08:11] <timreichhart> hey guys im getting this error can somebody help make -C /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-server/build SUBDIRS=/home/tim/agrsm modules

[08:11] <maxxist> kostja_ are you using wireless?
[08:11] <chandraneelnr1> well i have a dial-up modem. i have used scanmodem and configured the modem. But when i do sudo wvdial, it shows 'not a valid phone usrname and password'. Although the usrname etc. work well in windows and 8.04 but cannot do it in 8.10   In 8.04 there is an option for network configuration where one is supposed to enter details such as target number, username, password but no such option exits in 8.10
[08:11] <WIGGMPk> Flannel: sound has never been my strong point, and I really appreciate the education. Is there anything extra required for ubuntu to process FLAC or is this supported by default?
[08:12] <timreichhart> im getting this error when trying up to install the driver for agere 56k modem make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-server/build: No such file or directory.  Stop.

[08:17] <maxxist> kostja_  that site shows how to install the wireless driver through repos.

[08:17] <olabasher> !offtopic | olabasher
[08:17] <kostja_> maxxist i will try it out moment
[08:17] <ziroday> h4mx0r: you need to edit your /etc/exports to allow your ip address
[08:17] <Aron_> ziroday: but I don't know how to upload my files
[08:17] <timreichhart> can somebody tell me how to update the kernel
[08:17] <ziroday> Aron_: so you have created a file for the build service?
[08:17] <outbackwifi> h4mx0r: that means your server isnt configured properly; check its exports file
[08:18] <maxxist> timreichhart synaptic will do it for you if there is a newer one available
[08:18] <ziroday> h4mx0r: you can also use * to allow all ip addresses but that might not be secure
[08:18] <Aron_> ziroday: I have the .dsc .orig.tar.gz .diff.gz files
[08:18] <ziroday> Aron_: okay, one sed
[08:18] <timreichhart> what is the command because im doing this on putty
[08:18] <outbackwifi> timecist: use aptitude if you are on a  text terminal
[08:18] <anantk> I'm having a error while installing 8.10 which says that some file is not correct and my cd is corrupted.I've checked the md5 before burning and also did a media check from the cd.

[08:19] <h4mx0r> ziroday outbackwifi: I want to enable all addresses on 192.168.1. etc  with a <IP_ADDRESS> submask how do I say that in /etc/exports ?
[08:19] <ziroday> Aron_: please read https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA
[08:19] <kostja_> olabasher
[08:19] <Aron_> ziroday: already read that,but I am still fuzzy
[08:19] <kostja_> ?
[08:19] <outbackwifi> h4mx0r: use a wildcard (<IP_ADDRESS>/24)
[08:19] <olabasher> kostja_: nothing i have found a off topic channel
[08:19] <olabasher> kostja_: trank u
[08:20] <ziroday> Aron_: okay, what are you unsure about. The best place to ask really is #launchpad
[08:20] <olabasher> thank
[08:20] <Aron_> ziroday: can we continue here, or change to #launchpad?
[08:20] <h4mx0r> outbackwifi: are you sure? I just went to shared folders option and put in <IP_ADDRESS>/<IP_ADDRESS> and it doesn't work perhaps I should do <IP_ADDRESS> for the netmask?
[08:21] <Daremonai> After updating to the latest ubuntu, torrentflux-b4rt shows speeds as 0.00 kb/sec and progress bar is always at 0% even though it's downloading, anyone know how to fix that, or why it's like that?
[08:21] <ziroday> Aron_: asking the people in launchpad where your fuzzy about ppa's would be better
[08:21] <h4mx0r> outbackwifi: I would like to keep track of which folders I'm sharing and with which permissions there
[08:21] <wers> how do i change the settings for the keybind for changing the brightness of the screen?
[08:21] <Aron_> ziroday: thx
[08:21] <|adam|> h4mx0r: <IP_ADDRESS>/<IP_ADDRESS>
[08:22] <h4mx0r> wers: is it a laptop? try checking for laptop mode script and browsing through it for brightness options it probably uses the same method for when you pull the power cable
[08:22] <outbackwifi> h4mx0r: this is what someone says  IP networks — Allows the matching of hosts based on their IP addresses within a larger network. For example, <IP_ADDRESS>/28 allows the first 16 IP addresses, from <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS>, to access the exported file system, but not <IP_ADDRESS> and higher.
[08:22] <wers> h4mx0r, where is that laptop mode script?
[08:23] <outbackwifi> wers: on my laptop its inside /etc/acpi
[08:23] <h4mx0r> wers: its a service thing sort of, I think they still use it in 8.10 try googling for ubuntu laptop mode brightness and you should find the relevant commands to adjust your shortcut buttons
[08:23] <kostja_> maxxist, over cable all does work
[08:24] <MHz128> After mounting an ISO DVD image, how do I play the movie?
[08:24] <outbackwifi> MHz128: use vlc/totem
[08:24] <wers> for some reason, the brightness keybind doesnt work properlyanymore. whenever i press the keybind for adjusting it up or down, it doesnt work all the time and the OSD doesnt appear anymore
[08:24] <Aron_> ziroday: I have to say nobody replies me on #launchpad
[08:25] <ziroday> Aron_: just wait
[08:25] <Aron_> ziroday: OK
[08:25] <maxxist> kostja_  thats a good start then...
[08:28] <timreichhart> ok I did have this Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-16-server but how would I get it to get back at that image file
[08:28] <ForsakenSoul> hey guys what can I use to open files from a video cam ?
[08:28] <ziroday> ForsakenSoul: what do they end in?
[08:29] <ForsakenSoul> ziroday
[08:29] <ForsakenSoul> just a moment
[08:29] <IndyGunFreak> most of them are .mov's...

[08:33] <Sharp_eyes> hi
[08:33] <Sharp_eyes> hi all
[08:33] <nicholaspaul> Q: When I go to Reload packages in Synaptic, I get TONS that fail - they all end with Translation en_CA . Is that something to do with being in Canada?
[08:33] <Galga> grea
[08:33] <Galga> great
[08:33] <Galga> wow
[08:33] <Sharp_eyes> is ther any body who know that how to give permission to a sharing folder

[08:34] <ziroday> Sharp_eyes: which protocol?
[08:34] <Galga> good 2 c so many users in this channel :)
[08:34] <IndyGunFreak> nicholaspaul: probably a repository that is either closed or down, you can try switching to american servers..
[08:34] <nicholaspaul> ziroday: just 'Failed'.
[08:34] <Sharp_eyes> ziroday: local area network
[08:34] <ziroday> Sharp_eyes: okay, how are you sharing the files?
[08:34] <nicholaspaul> IndyGunFreak: I've tried loads of servers, inc. US
[08:35] <Sharp_eyes> i hve 1 foleder and i hve shared but
[08:35] <IndyGunFreak> nicholaspaul: then there is another underlying issue..
[08:35] <ziroday> nicholaspaul: I sometimes see that issue here with en_SG, try a mirror that is like ca.archive.ubuntu.com
[08:35] <economyx> hey can anyone address a problem with skype and pulseaudio?
[08:35] <Sharp_eyes> but the other computer trying to paste files and folder in it..
[08:35] <Sharp_eyes> error is showing that access denied
[08:35] <ForsakenSoul> ziroday:  mod, moi and pgi ...
[08:35] <ForsakenSoul> dunno which exacly
[08:36] <nicholaspaul> ziroday:  its just in the Status column, while its updating packages. All it says is Failed.
[08:36] <ziroday> ForsakenSoul: never heard of those, one sec
[08:36] <ziroday> nicholaspaul: try sudo apt-get update on the command line
[08:36] <ForsakenSoul> ziroday:  mod ... works with totem
[08:36] <ForsakenSoul> ....
[08:36] <ForsakenSoul> hmm
[08:36] <ForsakenSoul> nice
[08:36] <ziroday> ForsakenSoul: and you want all of them to play?
[08:36] <ForsakenSoul> ..no no
[08:36] <ForsakenSoul> ...
[08:37] <nicholaspaul> ziroday:  i get an error.. er.. cant remember what, sorry, but something like 'somethings down, prob your network' but i'm connected just fine
[08:37] <ForsakenSoul> it was my bad ... it didn't quite do it right the first try
[08:37] <ForsakenSoul> ziroday: sorry for you time
[08:37] <ForsakenSoul> and thanks
[08:37] <StrangeThing> Sharp_eyes, did u setup an samba user? command: sudo smbpasswd -a [username]
[08:37] <ziroday> ForsakenSoul: haha, no problem :)
[08:37] <Sharp_eyes> no
[08:37] <ziroday> Sharp_eyes: _how_ did you share the folder?
[08:37] <Sharp_eyes> wait im doing this
[08:37] <nicholaspaul> ziroday:  and my other Ubuntu computer is fine...
[08:38] <Sharp_eyes> right click on folder and share it
[08:38] <ziroday> nicholaspaul: that really is odd
[08:38] <ziroday> Sharp_eyes: okay, the protocol you were using is samba
[08:38] <Sharp_eyes> StrangeThing: what is new smb pass
[08:38] <ziroday> !samba | Sharp_eyes here are some links to help you
[08:39] <StrangeThing> Sharp_eyes, ehm, whatever u like ;)
[08:39] <ziroday> nicholaspaul: do you have any custom repos?
[08:39] <Sharp_eyes> ok
[08:39] <ForsakenSoul> ziroday is there by any chance any software for modifying videos
[08:39] <ForsakenSoul> like effects etc ?
[08:39] <ziroday> ForsakenSoul: umm, try kino
[08:40] <ziroday> ForsakenSoul: however not sure if it supports .mod you will probably have to convert it to something else
[08:41] <ForsakenSoul> ziroday:  that's not the problem
[08:41] <ForsakenSoul> I'm just fed up of using buggy windows ...
[08:41] <ForsakenSoul> so as long as I can modify videos on linux I'm happy
[08:41] <ForsakenSoul> :D
[08:41] <ziroday> ForsakenSoul: you can try kino
[08:41] <nicholaspaul> ziroday:  nope. all standard.
[08:42] <ziroday> ForsakenSoul: however it may not be able to open the .mod file
[08:42] <ziroday> nicholaspaul: hmm try doing sudo apt-get clean
[08:42] <nicholaspaul> ziroday: ookay
[08:42] <ForsakenSoul> ziroday: as I said ... that's not a problem I'll convert them
[08:42] <ziroday> nicholaspaul: and then sudo apt-get update

[08:56] <chilli0> k thanks Flannel
[08:56] <outbackwifi> tsop: that means your keyboard is ok
[08:56] <tsop> outbackwifi: well no, the way I did it was i started a new session and did a console login
[08:56] <tsop> outbackwifi: at the kdm window it works fine, but within KDE it stops working.
[08:57] <CHVNX> Evolution and GoDaddy stmp out are not working for me, but I got it working with Thunderbird.

[08:57] <monsoon_king> i am unable to install ubuntu 8.10...live cd boots soooo slow in a 1 GB RAM PC
[08:57] <Pupeno> Any recommendations on simple monitor tools for Ubuntu? I have a couple of servers and I'd like to be notified when something bad happens, like Apache dieing or the server loosing connectivity. Anything that won't take me eons to configure?
[08:57] <outbackwifi> Pupeno: nagios
[08:58] <jim_p> monsoon_king: other hardware? did the .iso pass the md5sum test? did you burn in low speed?
[08:58] <ziroday> What is the difference between apt-cache search and aptitude search? As apt-cache search always seems to turn up more packages

[08:59] <ziroday> Pupeno: outbackwifi there are no packages for nagios in the repos
[08:59] <chilli0> i ran a program an my moust doesn move now
[08:59] <monsoon_king> jim_p,  amd athlon XP,2.0 ghz...8.04 works like wonder.... i tried in virtual box too...its very slow
[08:59] <Pupeno> Do you know any howto specific for Ubuntu about Nagios? I've been looking for one and I couldn't find it, otherwise I'd just go for generic stuff.
[08:59] <outbackwifi> lolo: cd /other/folder; sudo tar zxvf file.tar.gz /path/to/tarfile
[08:59] <Pupeno> ziroday: aptitude search nagios shows me several packages in my ubuntu box.
[09:00] <jim_p> Pupeno: try nagios3
[09:00] <Shreedhar> you all should log on to -http://boobs.com/thumbs/phpThumb.php?w=130&h=88&zc=1&f=jpg&src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.boobs.com%2Ftube%2Fvids%2F75%2FIw3t8DjkeLV.jpg
[09:00] <Flannel> CHVNX: Should work, yes.  You may have to manually edit your boot.ini, but the OS installs would be independant and all that
[09:00] <ziroday> Pupeno: woops, my bad
[09:00] <jim_p> monsoon_king: does it pass md5sum?
 i want to un tar.gz more the one file???

[09:02] <outbackwifi> hateball: i used a nifty script attached to a spare key on my laptop to do that
[09:03] <hateball> outbackwifi♂ I was looking for a less hackish approach :D
[09:03] <outbackwifi> hateball: i could pastebin  and you could adapt it to suit your taste
[09:03] <hateball> outbackwifi♂ Sure, that'd be nice as a workaround
[09:03] <Pupeno> jim_p: yes, I've seen the packages for nagios2 for hardy.
[09:03] <Pupeno> to update or not to update, that is the question.

[09:09] <nikolam> itachibuntu, take a look at the lspci output to see what wifi card do you have

[09:10] <outbackwifi> linnoob007: the last few lines of dmesg as soon as you plug in your stick should give a clue
[09:10] <damkor> shall I use launchpad to file a bug report and then wait for it?
[09:11] <peter07> hi
[09:11] <linnoob007> outbackwifi: Thanks I see what that tells me
[09:11] <umangme> How do I install udev 124-10 when Synaptic is showing udev 124-8 as the latest. Apparently the CD drive coming back in problem was solved in udev 124-10 and released. Thanks

[09:12] <mudit> i am looking forward to install Flex SDK on hardy, i dont know how to do it !
[09:12] <mikebeecham> morning...does anyone know of a fix for the green webcam screen in 'Cheese'?
[09:12] <_Drax> Im having random freezes with 8.10, kernel panics! I tried googling around and found that it had to do with intel wifi thingie but I dont run any wifi cards etc. Is there any fix for this??
[09:12] <damkor> umangme: I got everything updated to the last version, I don't think you can get it yet. I'm guessing the best you can do is to file a bug report asking for a the new version of udev to be packaged and added to the repositories
[09:13] <outbackwifi> mikebeecham: you must have turned on some option there
[09:13] <jim_p> _Drax: blacklist the module
[09:13] <_Drax> What, I dont even think the module is running? Is it by default even though you dont have a wifi card??
[09:13] <damkor> _Drax: lsmod
[09:13] <mikebeecham> hey outbackwifi...no, it seems to be an issue since 8.10 mate
[09:13] <mikebeecham> been reading up for a day now!
[09:14] <peter07> I have problem with partition size. System thinks that no space left on /dev/sda2 (for example df -h commands shows 100% usage) but on this partition is 5BG free space (baobab analyse result), help
[09:14] <linnoob007> outbackwifi: dmesg shows that it knows I've inserted a card and that's it. It doesn't mount and it doesn't show up when doing fdisk -l
[09:14] <umangme> damkor: Thanks! I'll do that if no direct response is made to the main Bug Report. Thanks again!
[09:14] <itachibuntu> yes........
[09:14] <itachibuntu> but......
[09:14] <_Drax> Nope the module is not loaded
[09:14] <mudit> i am looking forward to install Flex SDK on hardy, i don't know where to begin, can anyone help with this ?

[09:16] <itachibuntu> but after updated, my system doesn't boot
[09:16] <itachibuntu> keren
[09:16] <damkor> _Drax: nope, my system hangs but I can still log in through ssh, so I'm guessing it's a different error
[09:17] <itachibuntu> kernel panic men!
[09:17] <damkor> O_o
[09:17] <jim_p> _Drax: can you please ehow us the page you seen that wireless module is responsible for the freeze?

[09:21] <outbackwifi> !hi gays
[09:21] <lilkoisuru_> Ubiquity crashes on me when I try to install Intrepid. I am trying the alternate install cd, but it seems to be just sitting there on the CD-ROM detection step.
[09:21] <adises> help i'm a first time ubuntu user and i'm having problems with the network manager..i Installed 8.10 and the first boot everything worked great it detected my wi-fi network and I setup pppoe but after i restarted the network manager vanished
[09:21] <outbackwifi> !best
[09:22] <rfxcasey> how can I share files between two ubuntu machines
[09:22] <itachibuntu> ay^, do you want to help me?
[09:22] <wild_guy> im a freebsd user!

[09:25] <lilkoisuru_> Ubiquity crashes on me when I try to install Intrepid. I am trying the alternate install cd, but it seems to be just sitting there on the CD-ROM detection step.
[09:25] <ay^> itachibuntu: and you cant have it autoconnect? For me that works automagically
[09:25] <nikolam> binskipy2u, normal, disks, you were reading before?
[09:25] <adises> jim_p: i have a feeling its a problem between ifupdown and network manager
[09:25] <outbackwifi> binskipy2u: did you try mounting from terminal using sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom
[09:25] <ay^> Chilired: Does changes in menu.lst have affect on the boot?
[09:25] <binskipy2u> yes
[09:25] <outbackwifi> lilkoisuru_: whats ubiquity?
[09:25] <jim_p> adises: blame network manager for it. remove it and install wicd. http://wicd.sourceforge.net/download.php tell me if you need help
[09:25] <lilkoisuru_> outbackwifi: The graphical installer for Ubuntu.
[09:25] <Chilired> nope
[09:25] <outbackwifi> binskipy2u: and did you get an error?
[09:25] <zetheroo> where can I download the Intrepid Repos from?
[09:25] <stinger> Hello all, long time ago when I installed ubuntu i think i installed the server version and then put a flat KDE on-top thus i don't have things like ubuntu administrator and synaptic is there a way i can install theses things ? for one i would like to install synaptic what repository do i need to add ?
[09:26] <outbackwifi> lilkoisuru_: ah,
[09:26] <adises> jim_p: ok thanks will try that and get back to u
[09:26] <binskipy2u> no error
[09:26] <binskipy2u> it just worked
[09:26] <Chilired> ay^, I have only change the line that selects default line to boot
[09:26] <binskipy2u> when i sudo'd mounted it
[09:26] <agitdd99> anyone experienced blank screen when entering gdm after installing on machine with ATI-card?please give me ultimate guide of solution?
[09:26] <nikolam> binskipy2u, look what you have in /etc/fstab
[09:26] <jim_p> adises: i may be gone in like half an hour ok?
[09:26] <binskipy2u> do i have to do that EVERY TIME NOW???
[09:26] <outbackwifi> stinger: sudo apt-get install synpatic
[09:26] <binskipy2u> just to read ad vd cd?
[09:26] <ay^> Chilired: and what does that line say now?
[09:26] <stinger> outbackwifi, its not found
[09:26] <stinger> outbackwifi, I think i am missing the source list for it
[09:26] <outbackwifi> binskipy2u: so why are you saying that you cant mount ?
[09:27] <outbackwifi> !info synaptic
[09:27] <adises> jim_p: ok not a problem thanks anyways
[09:27] <binskipy2u> well ive aleways just put in a cd dvd
[09:27] <outbackwifi> stinger: sudo apt-get update ; then try installing
[09:27] <nikolam> check permissions of /media directory where is cd-dvd mounted after mount
[09:27] <binskipy2u> and it seen it
[09:27] <binskipy2u> and opened up nattilus
[09:27] <Chilired> ay^,in windows I will have to check later, but instead f default 0 it is now 5
[09:27] <binskipy2u> and i ddi what i wanted to do
[09:27] <binskipy2u> now suddenly i have to issue a command to mount a cd and dvd?
[09:27] <outbackwifi> binskipy2u: so your problem definition is incorrect; automount is not working
[09:27] <binskipy2u> never had to in the past 3 ubuntu distros
[09:27] <nikolam> binskipy2u, and set permissions with sudo chmod ugo+rw on that dir in /media
[09:28] <stinger> outbackwifi, Package synaptic is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[09:28] <stinger> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[09:28] <stinger> is only available from another source
[09:28] <bullgard4> Where can I find a description of the Sound Preferences dialog?
[09:28] <stinger> I have done a full update
[09:28] <lilkoisuru_> Why is the alternate install disc showing up all horribly glitchy?!
[09:28] <ay^> Chilired: wierd.. and if you change anything else, that DOES change? say a title or something?
[09:28] <nikolam> binskipy2u, 8.10 is problematic in many ways for me too, per instance, floppy does not work by default etc..
[09:28] <stinger> I am running ubuntu 7.10
[09:28] <mudit> i have a compiler that i run from windows command line
[09:28] <outbackwifi> stinger: did you do a apt-get update?
[09:29] <stinger> outbackwifi, i use aptitude
[09:29] <mudit> can i make it run from hardy ?
[09:29] <zetheroo> anyone?
[09:29] <metbsd> what does ubiquity do anyway
[09:29] <stinger> outbackwifi, but yeah i have update a apt-get update
[09:29] <metbsd> it halts there
[09:29] <nikolam> stinger, 7.10 is ok, 8.04 also. i am staying with 8.04 for a long time since many 8.10 issues
[09:29] <mudit> anyone ?
[09:29] <lilkoisuru_> Okay. Is there ANY OTHER WAY to install Ubuntu other than alternate install or ubiquity, anyone?
[09:29] <Chilired> ay^, that was my next step, I am just collecting all my account data so I can set things up in ubuntu. just wanted to check if there was something known going on
[09:29] <Flannel> lilkoisuru_: What about the alternate install fails for you?
[09:29] <outbackwifi> lilkoisuru_: update distribution
[09:29] <metbsd> still ubiquity???
[09:30] <ay^> Chilired: ah no not that I know of.
[09:30] <metbsd> is it normal? still ubiquitying
[09:30] <hot_wheelz> hi guys :-)
[09:30] <lilkoisuru_> Two major problems. ONE... the display is glitchy, so I can't see anything unless I alt+sysrq+R, E, I. Then it just sits there accomplishing nothing on the CD-ROM detecting phase.... doin gNOTHING..
[09:30] <jim_p> adises: are you still there? if you are on 8.10 you have to change the "hardy" word on the repo line to "intrepid"
[09:30] <outbackwifi> mudit: you can use wine or check if there is a linux port of your compiler
[09:30] <outbackwifi> mudit: but what compiler is it?
[09:31] <tl> newbe's q: i installed wbar deb package,but it didnt show up.anybody knows the reason?
[09:31] <outbackwifi> lilkoisuru_: did you do a media check?
[09:31] <Chilired> ay^, its probably pilot error then, I will change the titling stuff and see if that change takes...perhaps my grub is looking elsewhere
[09:31] <lilkoisuru_> outbackwifi: I have no os on this hard disk. This is a clean install./
[09:31] <lilkoisuru_> outbackwifi: Yes.
[09:31] <hot_wheelz> I have a couple quick questions..I was hoping u guys may be able to help me answer them...maybe
[09:31] <mudit> outbackwifi: it is flex compiler
[09:31] <werdnus> !ask | hot_wheelz
[09:31] <outbackwifi> mudit: flex as in lexical analyzer?
[09:31] <outbackwifi> !info flex
[09:31] <ay^> Chilired: yeah I was thinking of that too, perhaps it's installed in the MBR as well or something
[09:31] <metbsd> what is ubiquity!!!
[09:32] <Flannel> metbsd: the graphical installer the Desktop CD uses.
[09:32] <metbsd> why is it installing things without notice me
[09:32] <hot_wheelz> ok sure
[09:32] <lilkoisuru_> outbakwifi: Finally, after a while, the dialog showing it's detecting the CD-ROM diappears, and nothing is left on the screen.
[09:32] <hot_wheelz> Q1 Do u know if the Brother DCP-330C has been added to the supported printer list or not?
[09:32] <lilkoisuru_> outbakwifi: Just blue on grey.
[09:32] <mudit> outbackwifi: flex as in flash, Rich Internet Applications
[09:33] <outbackwifi> lilkoisuru_: do a ctl+alt+f4 and you might see some error messages
[09:33] <hot_wheelz> Q2 In regards to mobile broadband does the that built in Network Manager does it now have the ability to act as a connection client meaning there is no need for somthing like VMC (Vodafone Mobile Connect) as a client? anymore is this correct?
[09:33] <outbackwifi> mudit: ah adobe flex?
[09:33] <mudit> outbackwifi: yes
[09:33] <lilkoisuru_> outbakwifi: Lots of output
[09:33] <outbackwifi> mudit: this should help ->http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=947728
[09:34] <outbackwifi> lilkoisuru_: does any of it look like errors?
[09:34] <outbackwifi> hot_wheelz: Q2 -> yes
[09:35] <mudit> thanks
[09:35] <lilkoisuru_> Unable to set title for console setup-deb.... there's also a lot of-- WHOA! Suddenlt stuff it wroking.
[09:35] <outbackwifi> hot_wheelz: Q1 -> open up system-administration-printers and check the drivers list
[09:35] <timreichhart> can somebody tell me where I can download this at /lib/modules/*KERNELVERSION*/build/ because I dont have it installed onto my server
[09:35] <zetheroo> where can I download the ubuntu repos from?
[09:35] <lilkoisuru_> outbackwifi: It aslo says syslogd was quitting... and a loe of BLURB
[09:36] <outbackwifi> timreichhart: iinstall kernel sources
[09:36] <LoveGuru> is there anyone who familiar with " sql-ledger " can somoeone help me with that, or any helpfull tutorial for sql-ledger. Thanks in Advance.
[09:36] <hot_wheelz> outbackwifuso no need for VMC then
[09:36] <outbackwifi> hot_wheelz: that would be a yes
[09:36] <hot_wheelz> thx
[09:36] <outbackwifi> lilkoisuru_: are you sure that the mediacheck went of ok?
[09:36] <lilkoisuru_> outbackwifi: It said the CD-ROM was fine.
[09:37] <lilkoisuru_> outbackwifi: It seems to take forever and a day to detect hardware.
[09:37] <outbackwifi> lilkoisuru_: whats the hardware config? did you check if it was on the hcl?
[09:37] <outbackwifi> !hcl | lilkoisuru_
[09:38] <outbackwifi> lilkoisuru_: also did you check whether you're using the right version of ubuntu like 64-bit for amd64 etc?
[09:38] <lilkoisuru_> ouytbackwifi: No need. I've had this intalled on this system before with all hardware working out-of-the-box. I DID remove all my hard disks and install a new 500 GiB, though.
[09:39] <lilkoisuru_> outbackwifi: Would the installers not like what channel they're installing from/to?
[09:39] <outbackwifi> lilkoisuru_: channel??
[09:39] <lilkoisuru_> outbackwifi: SATA channel
[09:39] <outbackwifi> lilkoisuru_: id have to say that shouldnt be a problem tho
[09:41] <metbsd> omg!! ubiquity halts my system,,!! cannot install!

[09:42] <lilkoisuru_> outbackwifi: Okay, now this is REALLY ticking me off. It failed to detect my networking hardware...
[09:42] <binskipy2u> my cd/dvd/ and thumb drives no longer mount or show up at all
[09:43] <lilkoisuru_> outbackwifi: The LiveCD was able to get that working right off the bat, so I know it's not an issue of support.

[09:43] <binskipy2u> please?
[09:43] <LoveGuru> is there anyone who familiar with " sql-ledger " can somoeone help me with that, or any helpfull tutorial for sql-ledger. Thanks in Advance.

[09:45] <lilkoisuru_> outbackwifi: Maybe I should just give up and install Hardy Heron. I'm pretty sure that would actually work. >.<

[09:49] <LoveGuru> outbackwifi sorry wrong typed.
[09:49] <ardchoille> Using Intrepid, I have a digiatl camera, is there a place I can set that camera up for use with Intrepid?
[09:49] <ardchoille> Or can I just plug it in and have it work?
[09:49] <LoveGuru> outbackwifi> LoveGuru: did you try the sql-ledger website?
[09:49] <DRebellion> ardchoille, I would assume your camera simply acts as a usb storage device when plugged in, in which case you can just plug it in and browse like any other filesystem.
[09:49] <lilkoisuru_> outbackwifi Well, it finally reached the partitioner.
[09:50] <pronoy> can anyone help me ?
[09:50] <ardchoille> DRebellion: yes, it acts as a usb device, so I'm good. Thanks

[09:54] <metbsd> stupid ubiquity
[09:54] <Rimfrost> hi everyone. i have just downloaded Ubuntu 8.10 but the startup from live cd goes slow... very slow why is that? it comes a black screen for a serval minutes before the desktop shows up
[09:55] <arthur> probably a graphocs driver issue
[09:55] <pronoy> hey can anyone help me wid the nautilus problem
[09:55] <pronoy> ??
[09:55] <Chilired> whats the problem pronoy
[09:55] <outbackwifi> geev: a) sudo fdisk /dev/sdb1 (assuming thats the flash disk partition) b) press d to delete existing partition c) press n for new d) select type e) w to write f) mkfs /dev/sdb1 (if its ext3)
[09:55] <ardchoille> Rimfrost: is that an older computer? Keep in mind the livecd can be slow, but it's much faster once it's installed to the hdd
[09:56] <lilkoisuru_> rimfrost: It *is* running off a CD, after all. It's a lot of data to run off.
[09:56] <pronoy> Chilired: it crashes every time i run an application like totem
[09:56] <Chilired> playing xvid?
[09:56] <pronoy> chilired: it hangs up and then it has to be forcequit
[09:56] <pronoy> chilired: divx
[09:56] <geev> outbackwifi: thank am going to perform this now
[09:57] <Rimfrost> yeah but the same problem is when it is installed too, long wait time until the installer runs and when it is installed also it is a black screen for like 5-10 mins or more.
[09:57] <rfxcasey> what is the best why to arrange my directories
[09:57] <Chilired> pronoy, does the divx actually continue to play or does it crash out too
[09:57] <voox> I installed ubuntu server, xorg, slim, than fluxbox. When I get to the login screen I can't move my mouse or type anything. What could be the problem?
[09:57] <Oprtz> how to turn OFFwebcam2.0 in ubuntu , i use Ekiga and i close it but the camera light is STILL ON,

[09:57] <Rimfrost> my computer is:   amd64 athlon, nvidia 8600 GT 1 GB ram nforce 4 motherboard
[09:58] <pronoy> chilired: it continues to play...fine....only nautilus crashes
[09:58] <rfxcasey> do most of you log in as admin or do you use a regular user account
[09:58] <Chilired> pronoy I have no idea, Ironically mine was doing the opposite, the totem crashed but nautilus was fine, turned out to be my video driver
[09:59] <metbsd> ubiquity dies when it copies files at 16%. what to do?
[09:59] <pronoy> chilired: i earlier disabled and then reenabled draw desktop from the gconf-editor
[09:59] <outbackwifi> rfxcasey: normal account; we use sudo, gksu or gksudo to perform administrative tasks
[09:59] <outbackwifi> metbsd: did you do a media check on your cd?
[10:00] <indistylo> can any one Tell me how to recover the GRUB ??
[10:00] <pronoy> chilired any way to use the default settings for gconf-editor???????
[10:00] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: you can't log in as root because the root account is locked, always use sudo from your normal account.

[10:00] <rfxcasey> should I outbackwifi can I move all my normal files in my home directory to seperate them from the hidden files
[10:00] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I have mine unlocked
[10:01] <outbackwifi> indistylo: use livecd to boot; mount your harddisk boot partition and use grub-install to re-install grub
[10:01] <indistylo> can any one Tell me how to recover the GRUB ??
[10:01] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: that is unsupported and unsafe
[10:01] <outbackwifi> rfxcasey: yes, ensure that wherever you move has the permissions for your normal user
[10:01] <Flannel> !grub | indistylo, first link
[10:01] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: you can lock it up again
[10:01] <outbackwifi> !root | rfxcasey
[10:01] <indistylo> outbackwifi : ok ..Frnd i tried it already /// Can u suggest me step by step procedure
[10:02] <indistylo> i was Unsucessful to Install GRUB
[10:02] <lilkoisuru_> rfxcasey: At the risk of sounding like I'm flamin gyou.... using root is a stupid thing to do. Especially if one were to, say, log in as root as their normal user.
[10:03] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: one of the things about that is that everyone knows you have a root account and they can sit here all day and try to brute force it, but you can't do that if root is locked.

[10:06] <npnux> TW6802 multimedia video card
[10:07] <Nathan-willems> Hi
[10:07] <rfxcasey> it's not like I have anyone showing me what to do all the time
[10:07] <bullgard4> Where can I find a comprehensive description of the Sound Preferences dialog?
[10:07] <lilkoisuru_> rfxcasey: Use gksudo
[10:07] <rfxcasey> I'm pretty new at this especially the command prompt
[10:08] <rfxcasey> lilkoisuru_, what will that do
[10:08] <Baldric> Hi all, can anyone help me fix a broken Xsession
[10:08] <Nathan-willems> How can i connect to the internet with my BT Home Hub and a realtek network card?
[10:08] <ziroday> bullgard4: what do you mean by description?
[10:08] <lilkoisuru_> rfxcasey: It is like sudo, it allows you to run graphical prgrams as root. The syntax would be gksudo (command)
[10:09] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: one of the things about that is that everyone knows you have a root account and they can sit here all day and try to brute force it, but you can't do that if root is locked.
[10:09] <bullgard4> ziroday: Don't you know what a 'program description' is? Some call it program manual.
[10:09] <lilkoisuru_> !gksudo | casey
[10:09] <ziroday> bullgard4: you mean how to use it?
[10:09] <bullgard4> yes
[10:10] <ziroday> bullgard4: I would think its reasonably self explanatory, did you click on the help button in the bottom left
[10:11] <lilkoisuru_> Huh. Every time I type something on this machine here... it beeps. D:
[10:12] <lilkoisuru_> Only on xchat. I'm restarting it
[10:12] <rfxcasey> so are you all saying I should disable local administrator login
[10:12] <Baldric> Hi all, can anyone help me fix a broken Xsession?
[10:12] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: yes, that's the default behavior.
[10:12] <ziroday> rfxcasey: yes, you should not have the root account enabled
[10:13] <rfxcasey> what about my permissions what should I have it set at\
[10:13] <diskin> lilkoisuru_, you are in "insert" mode
[10:13] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: I have been using Linux since 2001 and Ubuntu since 2005. I've never had to log into root since then, sudo can do anything you need.
[10:13] <Flannel> rfxcasey: `sudo passwd -l` and then use `gksu nautilus` if you *really* need a root file browser (and be extremely careful, and close it as soon as your done)
[10:13] <diskin> lilkoisuru_, press ins key once again
[10:13] <lilkoisuru_> sudo and gksudo elevate you to root levels for one command.
[10:14] <rfxcasey> well it would be nice to see how others have there file structures set up
[10:14] <itson> when i run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" i get something like "xserver-xorg postinst waring: overwriting possibly-customised configuration file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.200xxxxxx... " please please help me with this, ive been at this for like 3 hrs
[10:14] <ziroday> itson: what are you trying to do?
[10:15] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: I don't change anything outside of my home dir unless I use an admin tool (sudo/gksudo) to do it.
[10:15] <itson> ziroday i have a fresh install of ubuntu on virtual machine ( im on mac running Parallels Desktop ) and im tryiing to get higher resolution
[10:15] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, well what about within your home dir
[10:15] <Baldric> Can someone tell me what i have to do to fix this error from .xsession-errors....   /etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup...
[10:15] <Baldric> Setting IM through im-switch for locale=en_GB.
[10:15] <Baldric> Start IM through /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/all_ALL linked to /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/default.
[10:15] <Baldric> Unable to create /home/me/.dbus/session-bus
[10:15] <Baldric> Couldn't exec /usr/bin/pulse-session: No such file or directory
[10:15] <FloodBot1> Baldric: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:15] <rfxcasey> there are a lot of hidden files
[10:16] <lilkoisuru_> I've reached the cleaning up phase.... seems to be sitting there again. Well, waiting patiently worked before...
[10:16] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: that is your turf, so to speak, you can do anything there and you usually don't need root privs
[10:16] <ziroday> itson: okay, and what goes wrong when running the command dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:16] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, so can I move all my hidden files to a folder called hidden files and it won't mess anything up
[10:17] <itson> ziroday nothing comes up, just one line saying "xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration file; backup in blabla
[10:17] <arthur> help with udates
[10:17] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: no, that will indeed cause problems.. leave the hidden files where they are, it's ot hurting anything
[10:17] <bullgard4> ziroday: The help button in the bottom left describes an old (outdated) version of the program and it is far too sketchy.
[10:17] <sharperguy> Anyone have any suggestions as to why apt might still be trying to connect to and old proxy which has been removed using the gnome proxy tool
[10:17] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, it just looks so cluttered
[10:17] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: it does, but you can make nautilus not show hidden files
[10:17] <ziroday> bullgard4: well then perhaps you should add and fix up the help file
[10:18] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: in nautilus, ctrl+h
[10:18] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, yea so do I have to do this everytime I want to see them
[10:18] <ziroday> itson: okay, and it doesn't save your new /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[10:18] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: it's a toggle, yes
[10:18] <bullgard4> ziroday: What help file should I add?
[10:18] <Sertse> hi, a q about the usb creator in ibex, it works with other...isos?
[10:18] <Sertse> it sounded ambiqious
[10:18] <itson> ziroday , i think there is something wrong because when i delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:18] <itson> and then i run that command
[10:18] <Flannel> Sertse: I don't believe so, no.
[10:18] <ziroday> bullgard4: you should change the help file to reflect its current look
[10:19] <itson> then it just generates a new xorg.conf file
[10:19] <Sertse> ok. So no unetbootin replacement
[10:19] <itson> it doesnt give me any option to change any settings
[10:19] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, so what about groups how do they work
[10:19] <foo> Hm, anyone in here interested in writing articles for pay? Looking for these categories: Linux servers, Linux on the Desktop, Multimedia and Linux, Linux Applications, Distro Reviews, Linux Security, Linux Programming, Misc Linux Articles, and Linux Installation articles. Not sure how to go about finding the right people, but I assist with a forum who is lookin' for some articles. Nothing demanding... feel free to PM me for more info. Thanks!
[10:19] <ziroday> itson: hmm, what settings are you trying to change?
[10:19] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, that is a bad question I am sorry
[10:19] <itson> i think i have to select something like vesa or something
[10:20] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: no, you're trying to learn so please don't hesitate to ask things :)
[10:20] <pronoy> chilired: got any ideas regarding the nautilus crashing ?
[10:20] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: You should read this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions
[10:20] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I am what about permissions, if I am the sole user here do I have to allow group access to my files
[10:20] <ziroday> itson: okay, you can change that in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf by going to the Section "Device" and changing Driver "whatever" to Driver "vesa"
[10:20] <bullgard4> ziroday: To change the present help file to what in order that it reflects the current state of the program?
[10:21] <itson> ziroday but still, i have no mode or modes or whatever in there
[10:21] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: if you are sole user, you don't have to allow any other users or groups access to your files. But, if you are sole user, then there's no need to worry about someone else reading your files anyway
[10:21] <lilkoisuru_> Yay! the alternate install worked eventually! n.n
[10:21] <bs12e> is "sudo apt-get autoremove" same as the temp cleaner in windows?
[10:21] <ziroday> bullgard4: you said that the help file was out of date, I am saying make it up to date
[10:21] <ziroday> bs12e: no
[10:21] <sic> hey gang.  i had 8.04 dual booting with vista.  from inside 8.04 i did an upgrade to 8.10.  now when i boot, vista is missing from my boot loader.   how can i re-add it?
[10:21] <pronoy> sic: you will have to reload grub i think
[10:21] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, well wouldn't it make security a little tighter?
[10:21] <ziroday> itson: that is correct, it generates a minimal xorg.conf, you are free to add those lines in if you want
[10:22] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: how can anyone else get into the computer to read them?
[10:22] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I mean I have a wireless access point
[10:22] <Sertse> hmm, the usb creator recognizes debian though?
[10:22] <bs12e> ziroday: so how do i remove all the junk that i had installed and uninstalled from ubuntu (8.10 btw)
[10:22] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I am also on the net
[10:22] <sic> pronoy: i'm pretty new to ubuntu.  how do i go about that?
[10:22] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: Oh, I know nothing about wireless, sorry
[10:22] <ardchoille> !wireless | rfxcasey
[10:22] <ziroday> bs12e: if you apt-get remove then its been uninstalled...
[10:22] <pronoy> sic: wait...i'll give you the link
[10:23] <sic> pronoy: thanks
[10:23] <itson> ziroday when i try to change screen resolution though the GUI window in gnome, i have multiple options but those options dont show up in xorg.conf
[10:23] <itson> is that normal?
[10:23] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, you don't need to know wireless just that it's another open avenue
[10:23] <ziroday> itson: that is normal
[10:23] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: no need to worry about the net, the default install doesn't have anything that allows connections from the net to your computer. This is why the installed firewall rules are blank.
[10:23] <bullgard4> ziroday: It is not me who wrote the program and I do not know the intentions of the author of the program and the means which he used to accomplish his goal. So I am the wrong person to which you direct your suggestion.
[10:23] <LordCrc> hi, is there a way to adjust the paging behaviour? i find that my machine becomes completely unusable if i stress memory (unlike my windows box, which "just" becomes very sluggish) I'd rather have it swap out the offending program more aggressively rather than dumping everything else to disk
[10:23] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I don't understand
[10:23] <pronoy> itson: that is just the virtual resolution options...do any of them work if you switch over to them ?
[10:24] <ziroday> bullgard4: well you can always contact the gnome authors and offer your help in completing the help files, I am sure they would be most grateful
[10:24] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, ok I know what you mean
[10:24] <freeatlast> I have (4) desktops enabled - Is there a way to have a different desktop background on each one ? ?
[10:24] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I had to think about it
[10:24] <itson> yes pronoy they work, but they are all lower then 1026x6xx something
[10:24] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: on my machine, after the intstall, there is nothing "listening" for connections to my machine. so if someone tried to connect they are ignored.
[10:24] <ziroday> freeatlast: pretty sure you can't
[10:24] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I am trying to set up sshfs on my network
[10:24] <itson> i have a huge HD display monitor on geforce 8800
[10:25] <jimcooncat> Hardy netbooting driving me crazy, DHCP works fine for starting the installation, but when it runs the second time, it times out -- most of the time. Does this sound familiar to anyone?
[10:25] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: if you're worried, you can always setup the firewall. there is a nice gui to help with that, it's called:  firestarter
[10:25] <bullgard4> ziroday: Your statement is wrong: I cannot always contact the GNOME authors.
[10:25] <ziroday> itson: but that is very much due to you using ubuntu _inside_ parallels
[10:25] <pronoy> itson: so do you want to increase the resolution ?
[10:25] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I have dansguardian, firehol and tinyproxy going
[10:25] <ziroday> bullgard4: why not? They have mailing lists and such, offer up your help there
[10:25] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: heh, that's better than what I have :)
[10:25] <itson> yes pronoy i do. ( i dont understand what u mean ziroday )
[10:26] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I can get online so I know that port is open but I don't know that much else about it
[10:26] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: and I'm a security freak :)
[10:26] <freeatlast> ziroday, Thanks - I know about compiz but do not want to go there - like my desktop stable - no big deal - thought I would ask. Thanks
[10:26] <ziroday> itson: you are running ubuntu inside a parellel's virtualization software correct?
[10:26] <pronoy> itson: did you try the xrandr command in the cli
[10:26] <bullgard4> ziroday: I have made several approaches in the past in this direction, and they failed.
[10:26] <Baldric> how do i fix broken gnome xsession anyone? failsafe xsession works, but i have to keep changing session @ login how do i fix this ?
[10:26] <vlt> Hello. Where can I find still working repository URLs for Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy?
[10:26] <itson> yes i am ziroday
[10:27] <pronoy> sic: my internet is a bit slow...you'll have to hang on for a second
[10:27] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, well I wanted to block certain sites, it was a bit of a pain to set up and I don't know that much about those 3 programs and even if I need them all
[10:27] <itson> no i did not try xrandr command in the cli ( im not sure what that means )
[10:27] <ziroday> itson: right, and the reason you can't get the full resolution you need is probably due to the graphics driver inside the vm
[10:27] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: dansguardian is good for that
[10:27] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, well what is tinyproxy
[10:27] <pronoy> itson: issue man xrandr command in cli and pastebin the output
[10:27] <ziroday> vlt: you won't be able to, edgy is end of life already
[10:27] <mOrO^> getting rid of a non functiong icon in the "Places" area.
[10:27] <pronoy> itson: just the xrandr sorry
[10:28] <sic> no problem.   I know my boot location for vista, couldnt i just add it to /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:28] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: I don't know. But, just because you can connect _to_ a site doesn't mean that site can successfully connect back to you without your approval
[10:28] <sic> ?
[10:29] <pronoy> sic: its worth a shot..but i guess it'll be safer if you just restore grub
[10:29] <rfxcasey> ardchoille,  I only have on thing to say. I love wikipedia
[10:29] <sic> ok
[10:29] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, anyways
[10:29] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: Indeed :)
[10:29] <vlt> ziroday: Yes, but if I find a copy of the repo as it was I should be able to install old packages, shouldn't I?
[10:29] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, so how is your security set up
[10:29] <itson> ziroday but it works really well on my windows XP virtual box.
[10:29] <vlt> Is there any archive URL I could use?
[10:29] <sic> i've got to reboot. i'll be back in 2 minutes
[10:29] <mOrO^> Im trying to get rid of a non functioning icon in the "Places" area? ? ?
[10:30] <itson> sorry pronoy working with really low resolution really hard to get around to putting stuff up on pastebin
[10:30] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: I allow no connections to my machine, I also use rkhunter and chkrootkit to scan for rootkits daily, I also do not allow email attachments or html email.. my system is pretty locked down.
[10:30] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, See my problem really is I come from a strong Windows background and know just enough about linux to be dangerous
[10:31] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, what about scriptblocker for you web browser
[10:31] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: Time to unlearn and relearn. But you're with one of the best Linux distros available, so just stick in this channel and learn from what others are doing.. that's what I do.
[10:31] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: I use noscript and adblock in my firefox
[10:31] <pronoy> itson: ok....uh check this out...i am sure it'll help....all you need to know is how to edit the xorg.log....oh did you install nvidia-settings package btw ?
[10:32] <Madsy> I want to make an image of the whole physical harddrive with dd. The problem is, the machine is running Windows XP. Any suggestions how I could pull this off?
[10:32] <hot_wheelz> is anyone using Optus Wireless Broadband and the E960 modem?
[10:32] <Madsy> Perhaps boot with a live CD and tell dd to dump the image on a network drive?
[10:32] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, what is rkhunter
[10:32] <ardchoille> !rkhunter | rfxcasey
[10:32] <ardchoille> !inforkhunter | rfxcasey
[10:32] <jimcooncat> Hardy netbooting driving me crazy, DHCP works fine for starting the installation, but when it runs the second time, it times out -- most of the time. Does this sound familiar to anyone?
[10:33] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: hold on
[10:33] <itson> pronoy i did not install nvidia-settings package. ( i dont think i have to running in virtual machine )
[10:33] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: open a terminal and type: apt-cache show rkhunter
[10:33] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: That will give you some info about it, you can do that with others too: apt-cache show <package name>
[10:33] <carlinhos> can anyone help me with my xorg and with this?: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution
[10:34]  * delcoyote hi
[10:34] <pronoy> itson: you are running linux in a virtual machine ?
[10:34] <tidyboy0558> Hey... I'm a noob.. I'd like to delete multiple files in multiple subdirectories.. Anyone who knows a way to do it kind of quick ?
[10:35] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, what is MD5
[10:35] <Freku> maybe use a filemanager
[10:35] <itson> yes pronoy i am running linux inside virtual machine, ( im on mac running Parallels Desktop )
[10:35] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: man md5sum
[10:35] <qpdb> moin
[10:35] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I have heard it mentioned but don't know anything about it
[10:35] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, ok hold on
[10:35] <Madsy> tidyboy0558: rm with the -rf parameters. Make *sure* you use a relative path, or else your whole system might go to kingdom come.
[10:36] <sic> ponoroy: manually adding into menu.lst solved my problem.  thanks
[10:36] <Madsy> tidyboy0558: That will delete a directory and all its subdirectories.
[10:36] <AussieGuy> hi, ive got a c program telling me the sha1 for a certain file is 3UXJINW6U57KWZVCJ7M62HSSFPJJXZ5Z . openssl and sha1 utitlitys say the sha1 is dd2e9436dea77eab66a24fd9ed1e522bd29be7b9 ..... anybody know the difference?
[10:37] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, refresh my memory what are checksums the amount of bits in a file kept as a reference to see if the file size changed
[10:37] <amdpox> AussieGuy, one's in hex, one's in... something else
[10:37] <pronoy> sic: cool...i just finished looking up the problem...and guess what solution is to manually add into menu.lst
[10:37] <pronoy> sic: :D
[10:37] <AussieGuy> hmmmm
[10:37] <amdpox> rfxcasey, a checksum is a bit of data generated from the contents of an entire file
[10:37] <itson> i really want to know why when i type sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg it doesnt bring up the thiing to configure.. it just generatates a really basic xorg.conf and quits, doesnt ask me to edit anything like screen rez or driver or whatever.
[10:37] <AussieGuy> so itd need to be converted from whatever it is
[10:37] <amdpox> if the file changes, the checksum changes
[10:37] <vlt> tidyboy0558: You can run `find` to select the files you want to delete.
[10:37] <Freku> !md5
[10:37] <psypointer> hi
[10:37] <ardchoille> rfxcasey:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checksum
[10:38] <pronoy> itson: ok..so the only option is to add modelines into the xorg.conf and to do that you need to do man xorg.conf
[10:38] <qpdb> i have a problem using firefox with java-plugin.. every time a website that requires java is loaded, firefox gets grey and doesnt do anything anymore, is there any solution? =)
[10:38] <psypointer> with which tool can i configure my networking on a server installation?
[10:38] <sic> woot
[10:38] <pronoy> itson: it'll help you how to edit the file
[10:38] <psypointer> i dont want to edit all files manually..
[10:38] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, yeah that is basically what I said
[10:38] <amdpox> not quite
[10:39] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, would that be considered metadata
[10:39] <qpdb> psypointer, network config is not too much =) maybe search for webmin, but i can't recommend this tool
[10:39] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: I'm not sure
[10:39] <psypointer> qpdb: well, i thought that i can reopen the settings dialog which was shown at the setup..
[10:39] <itson> pronoy, i have some experience with xorg.conf but everything is so confusing because i cant input the right values for monitor and for video card and stuff because linux is running under virtual machine.
[10:39] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metadata
[10:40] <vlt> tidyboy0558: There's an option "-exec" for `find`. To remove all files ending in .bak older than one week you could run `find ./some_directory -type f -mtime +7 -name "*.bak" -exec rm {} +`, for example.
[10:40] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I guess it would be
[10:40] <ardchoille> yeah
[10:40] <pronoy> itson: well i edited my xorg.conf to get to 1440 * 900 from 800* 600 but i run only ubuntu...so i guess i am a little short on experience here
[10:40] <qpdb> psypointer, mhh try "dpkg-reconfigure <packageYouWantToReconfigure>" (donno the pkg name)
[10:40] <amdpox> tidyboy0558, vlt, even better there's an option -delete
[10:41] <psypointer> qpdb: hm nope..
[10:41] <vlt> amdpox: Thanks, didn't know that ;-)
[10:42] <Zalpinec> Hi, I have installed a 64bit version of Ubuntu, I'm trying to install Skype, but there is no 64 bit version, what to do ?
[10:42] <pronoy> sic: just in case for the future http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24113
[10:42] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, For example, metadata would document data about data elements or attributes, (name, size, data type, etc)
[10:42] <_Drax> So noone knows about 8.10 freezing / kernel panicing??
[10:42] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: yep
[10:42] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, that was from wiki
[10:42] <tidyboy0558> Thanx guys.. Here's my case.. I have a music-folder, and it's messed up with subdirs any strange files.. I'd like to delete only the .mxm and .riff-files, and keep all of my .mp3-files..
[10:42] <vlt> Hello. Where can I find old but still working repository URLs for Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy?
[10:43] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, anyways is that checksum attached to the individual file or is it kept in a database of sorts
[10:43] <vlt> tidyboy0558: That's the best case to use `find` for ;-)
[10:43] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I would guess the file itself
[10:43] <tidyboy0558> THX
[10:43] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, maybe like a header
[10:43] <cliff_> hi everyone. How can i install glib 1.2 or better on my Intrepid system? what is the package??
[10:43] <Baldric> Can anyone tell me how to fix a borked Xsession?
[10:43] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: to answer one of your previous questions, you have a folder in your home named .gconf and gnome uses that for config files. If you move it gnome may yell or start with an empty config and your settings will be gone
[10:44] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, but don't let me get side tracked I have a couple more questions if you have the time
[10:44] <itson> really really want to know why when i run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg that it just generates a xorg.conf and doesnt come up with giving me any options to choose from like drivers and rez settings.
[10:44] <cliff_> hi everyone. How can i install glib 1.2 or better on my Intrepid system? what is the package??
[10:44] <sic> I've got one more question.  i noticed in firefox when i hit a flash page, i have to click a "play" icon where the flash image is in order to start it.  is there any way to make this automatic?
[10:44] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: no, a checksum is calculated by the user, using md5sum or sha1sum, and returned, it's not attached to the file
[10:45] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: I'm here for a while, I like to help
[10:45] <cliff_> hi everyone. How can i install glib 1.2 or better on my Intrepid system? what is the package??
[10:45] <amdpox> itson, try without the -phigh
[10:45] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, well do you have to do an initial checksum scan of your files to generate a database then
[10:45] <kskrilla> hey can anyone help me out im on my buddies computer hes using a sony vio with ubunto 8.10 and it perodically freezes/crashes any suggestions?
[10:46] <bamball> after i install xfce, the login screen also changed to xubuntu login.. is there anywhere to restore the normal ubuntu login screen?
[10:46] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: the only time I checksum a file is when I download an iso, otherwise I don't mess with anything. rkhunter, otoh, does checksumming as part of its checks
[10:46] <Baldric> kskrilla: try switching off powersaving in the bios
[10:46] <Flannel> bamball: login screen setup, and you can configure it
[10:46] <bamball> Thank
[10:46] <kskrilla> kk ill give it a go tm
[10:46] <bamball> thanks flannel
[10:46] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, how do you do that
[10:47] <pronoy> bamball: the login screen or boot screen ?
[10:47] <itson> amdpox i did that, and it works, BUT it gives up after it configures the keyboard settings..
[10:47] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: checksum a file?  md5sum /path/file
[10:47] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, what do you check it against?
[10:48] <kskrilla> the thing is when he ran 8.04 he had no issues after he uppgraded to the beta of 8.10 via apt-get and then went thru all the updates to get to the present it just started doing this last week
[10:48] <bamball> the login screen
[10:48] <amdpox> rfxcasey, a file in the same place with same name with .md5 suffixed
[10:48] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: when you download an iso, the webpage usually has a checksum to check it against or a file of checksums to check
[10:48] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, ok that is kinda what I though but wasn't sure
[10:49] <arthur> need help with package updates
[10:49] <ardchoille> arthur: please be more specific
[10:49] <_Drax> If you upgraded to 8.10 from 8.04 with do-release-upgrade is it possible to go back to 8.04 without having to "format/install again 8.04 all over again"
[10:49] <arthur> libpoppler _glib3 on hardy8.04
[10:49] <pronoy> bamball: then i guess the login screen tab in your administrator is the way
[10:50] <bamball> yeah got it thankz pronoy
[10:50] <ardchoille> arthur: you can update your system with: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get safe-upgrade
[10:51] <vlt> Any idea where to look for old but still working repository URLs for Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy?
[10:52] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, so if I download a program dpkg where is the best directory to put the files
[10:53] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, for instance if I download the teamspeak package and unzip it where would I put it usr?
[10:53] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: first of all it's best to stay with the repos, always check the repos for an app before you download an app, use the repo version over any other things you download. If you download a package that isn't in the repos, put it where you want
[10:53] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: But, if you manually download a package and install it, the package manager won't do any version managing
[10:54] <mariusp> Is anyone using wmii 2.5 as in the ibex repos? I could use a little help in getting a proper wmiirc file. Thanks
[10:54] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, well were do all those repo programs end up?
[10:54] <Sorcererbob1> rfxcasey: the place you put the .deb usually isn't the place it installs to. So put it in your home folder
[10:55] <ardi_kk> hello can some one tel me the way to configure web cam on hardy?
[10:55] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: the stuff the package manager installs is placed in /var/cache/apt/archive and you can clean that out if you need: sudo apt-get clean
[10:55] <payz> Hello
[10:55] <Skiessi> !info libqt4-dev
[10:55] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, what do you mean by clean it out?
[10:56] <ardi_kk> i need to know how i can associate my web cam with vlc to capture video
[10:57] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, so after this man rkhunter how do I get my terminal back to normal?
[10:57] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: the packages that are downloaded by the package manager are kept in /var/cache/apt/archive, you need to manually clean it out if needed. I think synaptic can clean it out for you but I don't use synaptic
[10:57] <kskrilla> so anyone else have any ideas on why 8.04 worked fine but when i updraded to 8.10 they system periodically crashes/freezes, imusing a sony vio
[10:57] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: type q
[10:58] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, ah, you are cool
[10:58] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, I have been wondering how you do that
[10:58] <ardchoille> :)
[10:58] <Chilired> lol
[10:59] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: you can usually type "man tar" or "man cp" (without quotes) in firefox and it'll show you a man page about an app
[11:00] <Chilired> man man
[11:00] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, why would you need to "clean out" apt
[11:00] <pronoy> kskrilla: be more specific
[11:00] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, or not apt but um whatever
[11:00] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: over time all those packages can take up disk space
[11:01] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: open a terminal and run: ls /var/cache/apt/archive
[11:01] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, oh I see so the packages (like zips lets say) are stored there and then the programs are installed from the packages?
[11:01] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: right
[11:01] <pronoy> ardi_kk: what webcam are you using ?
[11:02] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, wow didn't really think about that
[11:02] <kskrilla> im have g of ram, im on my friends computer ill be chillin out bs'in on the comp and without warning the system will crash heck it even roze on the screensave a couple times and the only way it seems as if i can get out is by a restart, when he had hardy it worked great but with intrepid it freezes up from time to time
[11:02] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: you can even burn those to a cd for use later on a machine that doesn't have net access
[11:02] <Flannel> !aptoncd | rfxcasey
[11:02] <ardchoille> Flannel: Thanks, I was trying to remember that
[11:03] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, even so I could back them up my server and make things fasters I suppose
[11:03] <ardchoille> sure
[11:03] <MrBougo> Hello... I can connect to my wireless network with a DHCP-assigned IP without problem, but when I set it up as manual it does not want to connect
[11:03] <vlt> I found it: deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy main restricted
[11:03] <MrBougo> I'm 100% sure I set up the right settings in there...
[11:04] <Flannel> vlt: You're aware edgy is EOL, right?
[11:04] <Sorcererbob1> MrBougo: some routers are touchy and won't give access unless they've given the IP
[11:04] <MrBougo> I'm trying to set that in the network manager by the way
[11:04] <psycose> i'm trying to add a pdf printer on ubuntu 8.10, i've install cups-pdf package but it doon't work .. i'm looking for up to date documentation ... any tips ?
[11:05] <vlt> Flannel: Yes, sure. I just need to install a package on an old (but working) Edgy install.
[11:05] <MrBougo> Sorcererbob1, I could get a static IP on the same router, same machine, under windows xp
[11:05] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, ls: cannot access /var/cache/apt/archive: No such file or directory
[11:05] <leohartx> how do i install AWN 0.3.1 ?
[11:05] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: /var/cache/apt/archives  sorry for the typo
[11:06] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, so what does that do?
[11:06] <jimcooncat> from command line, how to check status of daemons listed in /etc/init.d?
[11:06] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, where are you located? It is like 6 am here
[11:06] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: what does ls do? It lists all files in a directory
[11:06] <icqnumber> people, what packages do i miss? http://paste.ubuntu.com/69072/, i have ubuntu-restricted-extras and w32codecs installed
[11:07] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, no I mean why would I look in that dir
[11:07] <inktri> why do people use text editors like vi/emacs?
[11:07] <inktri> it's painful
[11:07] <Flannel> jimcooncat: in 8.10, sudo service --status-all
[11:07] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: to see how much is being help there, just an example of how the package manager stores things
[11:08] <jimcooncat> Flannel: thanks, but using gutsy (I think)
[11:08] <bamball> vi is fast
[11:08] <inktri> faster than gedit?
[11:08] <aboSamoor> I want to convert all the eps files in a folder to pdf, I used the following command a2ping, how can I do that ?
[11:08] <ardchoille> inktri: some of us like cli-based editors :)
[11:08] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, oh well I ran apt-get clean first so I guess it emptied it out, does that sound right?
[11:08] <leohartx> how do i install AWN 0.3.1 ?
[11:08] <MrBougo> I've seen solutions involving editing some file for my hardware
[11:08] <Flannel> inktri: Certainly more powerful, and generally faster, yes.
[11:08] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: yes, it's emptied out. I do that once a week
[11:08] <MrBougo> but the problem is that I need this static IP on that specific network
[11:08] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, what time is it where you are if you don't mind my asking
[11:08] <MrBougo> I use other networks too, with different IPs
[11:09] <aboSamoor> leohartx, you have to add the ppa for the trunk Branch
[11:09] <jimcooncat> maybe with ps? how to check for running daemons
[11:09] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: 03:09:06 PST 2008
[11:09] <psycose> i'm trying to add a pdf printer on ubuntu 8.10, i've install cups-pdf package but it doon't work .. i'm looking for up to date documentation ... any tips ?
[11:09] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, 3 am
[11:09] <Flannel> jimcooncat: I believe that'd be: /etc/init.d/* status
[11:09] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, do you work at night or something?
[11:09] <leohartx> aboSamoor, how ?
[11:09] <ardchoille> rfxcasey: may I pm you?
[11:10] <rfxcasey> ardchoille, of course

[11:24] <umangme> Hi! This may seem like a trivial problem, but I'm not able to get my head around it. I am the admin, and want to be able to edit one particular file often, which I am not the owner of. So I add the owner of the file and myself to a group and make the group own the file. Then I do a chmod 774. But the file is still coming as read-only on OpenOffice. What do I do?
[11:27] <refriedbeans19> wow, i've never seen this room so quiet before =\

[11:32] <umangme> eerm: XYZ owns a file. I want to edit it as well. So XYZ and me are put in one group. The group owns that file. chmod 774. It is still read-only for me, but not for XYZ.
[11:32] <qpdb> bamball, i really dont think so ;)
[11:32] <amdpox> umangme, are you sure you're in  the group?
[11:32] <bamball> just kidding man
[11:32] <umangme> amdpox: Yes, I've checked.
[11:32] <bamball> maybe that day will come ;)
[11:33] <dmizer> in hardy, how the heck are you supposed to change the display driver?
