[00:01] <josten> After installing all updates, how do I get rid of the old versions such as the kernel version 3.0.0-12, I now have 3.0.0-17, but grub still gives me the option to boot the old one.
[00:03] <FireStorms> Anyone have problem with LTS Firefox on Ubuntu 10.04, keeps saying Firefox is already running when it is not,
[00:04] <xangua> FireStorms: kill the procces
[00:05] <uglyoldbob> how do i get gcc3 for ubuntu 10.04? I'm compiling linux-2.4 for a really old computer
[00:05] <bagels> Why can't I find the assistive technologies settings anywhere? Using version 12
[00:05] <sidney> xangua, http://paste.ubuntu.com/910861/
[00:06] <FireStorms> kill process?
[00:07] <sidney> FireStorms, alt + f2 issue command kill and the name
[00:08] <FireStorms> thank you, did work
[00:10] <bagels> like, I can't find the onscreen keyboard, I can't zoom in on my screen, anything.
[00:10] <TorbenBeta> bagels, for ubuntu 12. use #ubuntu+1
[00:10] <smg60231> I am having a bit of an issue. Port scanners are saying that all ports on my network are closed, even though I have them forwarded and everything. Any suggestions?
[00:10] <bagels> oh thanks
[00:10] <bagels> sorry :D
[00:11] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: port scan from a computer inside your network?
[00:12] <smg60231> uglyoldbob: Not quite sure how to do that. I did use Linux to check and make sure it wasn't blocking anything, which it wasn't... and neither is windows.
[00:12] <smg60231> uglyoldbob: Just download a port scanning program or something?
[00:12] <plut0> why am i getting this error when copying certain files? Value too large for defined data type (75)
[00:13] <sidney> smg60231, http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/
[00:13] <smg60231> sidney: Ran this scan, says all ports are closed
[00:14] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: angry ip scanner will run on windows
[00:14] <uglyoldbob> that will help determine if the router is forwarding correctly
[00:15] <smg60231> uglyoldbob: Thanks, downloading now.
[00:15] <uglyoldbob> or if you are scanning from linux, http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-port-scanning/
[00:18] <smg60231_> back, restarted brwoser lol
[00:19] <OvermindDL1> So why might pulseaudio be randomly dying, it instantly restarts itself but anything using audio needs to be restarted to use the new pulseaudio process.  Using 11.10
[00:19] <airstrike> hi..
[00:20] <airstrike> for some reason, screen kills the current ssh connection when i do C-a c
[00:20] <OvermindDL1> It does this about once an hour while listening to something
[00:20] <klumur> hello
[00:21] <uglyoldbob> E: Couldn't find package gcc-3.3. Anybody know how to install gcc4 and gcc3 on ubuntu-10.04?
[00:21] <plut0> why am i getting this error when copying files? Value too large for defined data type (75)
[00:22] <smg60231_> The Angy IP Scanner found no open ports as well
[00:22] <Pseudoephedrine> Im trying to run 'apt-get update' but keep getting this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/910874/
[00:22] <uglyoldbob> plut0: what is the file size and what filesystem are you copying to?
[00:23] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: that means the ports on the computer are not open
[00:23] <plut0> uglyoldbob: 158mb copying to xfs
[00:23] <Yaaaaaa> upgraded to 12.04, my sound still works but now alsa mixer says: cannot load mixer controls: Invalid argument
[00:23] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: you used the internal ip address (perhaps 192.168.bla.bla)?
[00:24] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Yes, I used the internal IP
[00:25] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: It report [n/s] for ports
[00:25] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: ok check configurations on the computer then (firewall + is server application running/working)
[00:26] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Firewall on windows is up now, but had no results with it down anyway.
[00:26] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Firewall on ubuntu is set to accept all
[00:26] <uglyoldbob> the server is windows or linux?
[00:26] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Server is running

[00:27] <Blue1> chsados: what version of ubuntu?
[00:28] <chsados> the newest one
[00:28] <Blue1> chsados: have you tried...backport?
[00:28] <chsados> 11
[00:28] <mintman> smg60231_:  and Pseudoephedrine  getting same errors might be a repository change for security check out ubuntu or firewall issue??
[00:28] <media> hi
[00:28] <chsados> i have not blue1 im ubur linux noob im just used to clicking an icon to install drivers :S
[00:29] <Blue1> chsados: this may/may not help:  http://pkill-9.com/getting-wireless-connect-to-work-for-acer-aspire-on-ubuntu/
[00:29] <Pseudoephedrine> mintman: how would i go about doing that?
[00:29] <media> any one can help with ffmpeg?
[00:29] <Blue1> chsados: this is more a medium knowledge level - if you are a n00b may not be for you.
[00:29] <smg60231_> mintman: He has the same problems as me, eh? Ports are all closed it says? damn lol
[00:29] <chsados> where can i get some noob help?
[00:29] <drecute> what's the safest way to install ubuntu-server on ubuntu-desktop?
[00:30] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: http://pastebin.com/wb22xb02
[00:30] <Blue1> drecute: makes no sense.
[00:30] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: sorry, not to sure how to interperate that lol
[00:30] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: what services are you trying to run on the server?
[00:30] <drecute> Blue1: how do you mean?
[00:31] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: TeamSpeak 3 server Listening on UDP 9987
[00:31] <drecute> I want the server and desktop on the same machine
[00:31] <Blue1> drecute: they are incompatible.  that said I installed ubuntu desktop and whatever else I wanted - I created a lamp -- linux, apache, mysql, php, dns and ftp server
[00:31] <drecute> except I will have to go ahead and install the server packages individually?
[00:31] <plut0> why am i getting this error when copying files? Value too large for defined data type (75)
[00:32] <drecute> ok
[00:32] <drecute> cook

[00:33] <buttscicles> Is there any way to recover a file I deleted using the rm command?
[00:34] <Quantum_Ion> 11 more days until they releasr 12.04 Ubuntu Linux LTS
[00:34] <Blue1> Quantum_Ion: i will prolly  wait till then may 1, till they get some of the bugs ironed out.
[00:35] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: the log suggests that the teamspeak server is not running on your server, can you get a log file for it?
[00:35] <Quantum_Ion> Blue1, Good advice
[00:35] <Blue1> i have to do something, as 10.10 his end-of-life this month (no april fool)
[00:35] <Blue1> s/his/hits/
[00:35] <lol_no_u> how to dim screen when idle? i mean not blank, just dim it
[00:35] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Not quite sure how to do that, but I can prove that it is running lol.
[00:35] <lol_no_u> some gsettings magic?
[00:36] <Quantum_Ion> Blue1, Still running 10.04 LTS lol
[00:36] <Blue1> Quantum_Ion: my folks are on 10.04 and my other box is on debian squeeze
[00:36] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: the log is perhaps in ~/server.log
[00:37] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: http://pastebin.com/ykqJryBM
[00:37] <Quantum_Ion> Blue1, Are your folks your parents ?
[00:37] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Running over SSH with no GUI, so I am not quite sure how to actually pull up the log for you =\
[00:38] <mintman> uglyoldbob: can the just connect directly to the ISP to make sure it is just a server issue and not a repository issue with ubuntu??
[00:38] <uglyoldbob> nano ~/server.log or cat ~/server.log | more or nano ~/server.log
[00:38] <lol_no_u> netcat it
[00:38] <lol_no_u> lol
[00:38] <Blue1> Quantum_Ion: yes they are in their 80's have been running Linux now for about 3 years.
[00:38] <Quantum_Ion> Blue1, Wow
[00:38] <Blue1> Quantum_Ion: private message ok?
[00:39] <rybnik> Hey fellas anyone care to give some feedback on http://radiant-fog-5434.herokuapp.com/# it's bare bone for now…. I would just love some comments on the concept.. It's a free online service that I'm currently developing … feedback is most appreciated :)
[00:39] <Quantum_Ion> Blue1, sure
[00:39] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: "tail ~/server.log" might also work well
[00:40] <Yaaaaaa> upgraded to 12.04, my sound still works but now alsa mixer says: cannot load mixer controls: Invalid argument
[00:40] <briankb> how do I add a program shortcut on the menubar if the program doesn't show up in unity search? I want to make a shortcut to /usr/local/bin/xbmc
[00:40] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: I entered the command in the wrong directory and now it wont let me exit lol
[00:40] <smg60231_> I keep entering ^X
[00:41] <smg60231_> but it does nothing
[00:42] <hellyeah> hey
[00:42] <JelloPop> rybnik: What is this service for other then images... I thought that is what Google images is for ! 8)
[00:42] <plut0> why am i getting this error when copying files? Value too large for defined data type (75)
[00:42] <hellyeah> i am usingn ubuntu 12.04
[00:42] <hellyeah> do i need to go ubuntu+1
[00:42] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Mind enlightening me on how to exit this thing? xD
[00:42] <hellyeah> hey is there anyone who use irssi
[00:42] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: which one did you use?
[00:43] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: nano ~/server.log
[00:43] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: ctrl + x
[00:43] <JelloPop> smg60231_: ctrl + x or ctrl + q
[00:44] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Ah, thanks
[00:44] <keitt> pickles
[00:44] <rybnik> JelloPop: This is currently a front end… the main Idea is to build a Wordpress plugin and perhaps a MS/Open office plugin … so that when a user writes an article … a report a presentation… push a button and receive image suggestions based on his content, these suggestions should also allow a user to easily discover what license is associated with them…. and well it saves you the "lets try this search… nahh this other one… nah
[00:44] <rybnik> this other one…" effort when looking for the right content for your text
[00:44] <keitt> what?
[00:45] <keitt> what is this exactly?
[00:45] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Entering that command in the correct directory brings up a blank screen
[00:45] <rybnik> keitt: asking me ?
[00:45] <keitt> i am confused
[00:45] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: However, from what I showed you, the server is running.
[00:46] <rybnik> keitt: about the service? I'm not sure you're talking to met lol xD
[00:47] <uglyoldbob> hmm can you show me the server.ini?
[00:47] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Do the same thing I just did? As I said, I am using no GUI and am not sure how to bring such files up without one lol.
[00:47] <keitt_> what?
[00:48] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: sorry for my newbiness lols
[00:48] <keitt_> any one here?
[00:48] <keitt_> o
[00:48] <tyler_d> I am a meet popsicle
[00:48] <tyler_d> meat 2
[00:48] <smg60231_> keitt: Hi hi
[00:48] <keitt_> tyler? is it? but what is this website?
[00:48] <JelloPop> rybnik: Good Luck,  Srry I dont have much use for a app that tells me IMage is Licensed.. Of course I dont right for maginzines or newspaper or printed material or website developer... Good Idea just not much use to a average chap.. :)
[00:48] <keitt_> we can take pictures?
[00:49] <keitt_> hi smg
[00:49] <keitt_> can some one tell what is going on?
[00:50] <keitt_> i am lost
[00:50] <keitt_> ugh this just popped up
[00:50] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Using the command you gave me, nano (directory), nothing comes up with server.ini either.
[00:50] <rybnik> JelloPop: Thank you for your feedback! :) I'll give it a though about how the service targeting :)
[00:50] <keitt_> hey do any of you have a vivitar camera
[00:50] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: no connections have been made to it yet, as no users can connect to it but me lol.
[00:50] <hypn0> are we all keitt - lost
[00:50] <tyler_d> I think the majority of this banter is really just !offtopic
[00:51] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: server.ini should be in the same folder as the executable is
[00:51] <keitt_> i g2g i don't wanna be in this convo
[00:51] <keitt_> and this is confusing
[00:51] <keitt_> bye :)
[00:52] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: I cd'd into that directory and gave the command that you told me to enter... the screen that comes up is blank.
[00:52] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: ls
[00:52] <Yaaaaaa> I am on 12.04 ( I know someone said go to ubuntu+1 but no one is there) any ideas why my sound works ( and everything shows up in pavucontrol) but alsamixer does not work says. cannot load mixer controls: Invalid argument, just need a point in the right direction...
[00:52] <JelloPop> rybnik: Selling point is there! Just finding the audience is the question to use the app.. Might pose the idea to Ubuntu forums..
[00:53] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: http://pastebin.com/V7pQavDt
[00:54] <JelloPop> rybnik: combining ur idea with a imagining app might make it a more functional idea!
[00:54] <rybnik> JelloPop: I'll try yo make the service and the API stable then I'll try yo kickstart some Libre Office plugin :) and se if the community cares to help :)
[00:54] <rybnik> JelloPop: imagining app…? Care to develop further your idea?

[00:57] <adrien2> any one know how to set refresh rate in ubuntu 11.10 with unity?
[00:58] <adrien2> part of my screen is off and there's no way to set it
[00:58] <jlb181> sab0: I use the Janitor in Ubuntu Tweak, it works.
[00:58] <JelloPop> rybnik: I was figuring adding it to like GIMP letting user know he is editing a graphics that has copyright!
[00:58] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: http://pastebin.com/uxZkbcah
[00:58] <FernandoCueva> what is the command to eject a pccard that is to disable its power so I can remove it safely
[00:58] <adrien2> i mean, part of the screen is off the screen
[00:58] <adrien2> in other window managers changing the refresh fixes it.
[00:59] <jlb181> sab0:  http://ubuntu-tweak.com/
[00:59] <sab0> jlb181, i will try now
[01:00] <jenesaispas> hello there
[01:00] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: cat logs/ts3server_2012-04-01__22_23_43.614560.log
[01:00] <quuxman> this is bizarre: If I run "mplayer song.mp3" on VT1, it plays fine (using ALSA), but if I do  exactly the same in a terminal in X, it fails
[01:00] <rybnik> JelloPop: Hmmm i think that is farfetched for the scope I'm aiming…. I mean, you wan't to have suited images given a text. Editing them.. hmmm I'm having trouble picturing it.  I'll think about what you propose!
[01:00] <quuxman> prints a bunch of alsa errors, starting with: [AO_ALSA] alsa-lib: confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0'
[01:01] <jenesaispas> I'm testing ubuntu 12.04 beta 2. Altought it worked at first, language support doesn't do anything anymore. Whatever language I put first or install, english is kept... doesn't appear to do anything... why?
[01:01] <quuxman> (when running from X11). Note that I'm not actually quitting X, just switching to VT1, and it works
[01:01] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: http://pastebin.com/FtuedMeN
[01:02] <quuxman> there must be some environment variable that's confusing the alsa audio out plugin
[01:03] <JelloPop> rybnik: NO I was not referring just to scope of defining text usage, but on the user side of editing images never seen any image editing program detail that u are using copyrighted material.. I think maybe ur scope is narrowed to image use in Office... Instead of just using images in general...
[01:03] <quuxman> except env doesn't show anything related to alsa. Has anybody else run in to something like this?
[01:04] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: what linux distro is installed?
[01:05] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Linux Ubuntu 11.10 server
[01:06] <drecute> which is most popular method of joining ubuntu to AD?
[01:06] <JelloPop> rybnik: Ur assuming the user doesn't use GIMP before placing the image in his/her document for pixels, resolution,turn image back and white.. There could be lots of effects added to image before putting it in the document!
[01:07] <rybnik> JelloPop: ahhhh now I see it!
[01:07] <rybnik> JelloPop: thank you! :)
[01:07] <JelloPop> rybnik: Good Luck! Lick the idea! :) Hopefully we see it soon ;)
[01:08] <JelloPop> lick =like
[01:08] <JelloPop> ops
[01:08] <rybnik> JelloPop: jajajaj XD I'll give it a try I'll let you people know XD Thank you for you time and effort!
[01:08] <sab0> jlb181, i was trying to install it from terminal but its giving me this error "E: Couldn't find package ubuntu-tweak_0.6.2-1~oneiric1_all.deb"
[01:08] <drecute> which is most popular method of joining ubuntu to AD?
[01:09] <jlb181> sab0:  Yeah, download it from the website, it'll work.  I don't think it is in the repos.
[01:09] <sab0> jlb181, i downloaded it and then tried to install
[01:10] <naryfa> does anybody know how to install cinnamon in 12.04?
[01:10] <jlb181> sab0 did you click the deb package in the downloads folder?
[01:10] <sab0> jlb181, yes,its there
[01:10] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: try three commands: "sudo ufw allow 30033" "sudo ufw allow 9987" "sudo ufw allow 10011"
[01:11] <jlb181> sab0:  downle click the package.  That should open USC and from there click install.
[01:11] <jlb181> double
[01:11] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: I disabled ufw, however when I tried allow 9987 via ufw it didn't work. I can try again, however.

[01:16] <jlb181> Does anybody know what that means?  Error Dependency is not satisfiable: python-aptdaemon.gtk3widgets
[01:16] <jlb181> sab0, I would assume you need to install that dependancy first.
[01:18] <uglyoldbob> sysRPL: try kubuntu that has kde?
[01:19] <jlb181> sab0: you can install that from the Ubunut software Center

[01:22] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Any other suggestions? Or is that all we can do? =\ appreciate the help
[01:22] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: im looking right now
[01:23] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Ah, thank you so much.
[01:23] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: "netstat -lp"
[01:24] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: http://pastebin.com/T1jBAec5
[01:30] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: so I now see the server has the appropriate ports open. what is the network configuration for the server?
[01:31] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Sorry? What do you mean?
[01:31] <jiggawookie> why can only root run alsamixer ? my user is part of the 'audio' group.....
[01:31] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: I have the server ran through a router into a modem, I can give you it's IP's and what not but what do you mean it's network config aside from that?
[01:32] <uglyoldbob> does it have a dynamic or static ip address?
[01:32] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Oh oh, sorry about that. LAN = Static, WAN = Dynamic.
[01:32] <uglyoldbob> ok good
[01:32] <uglyoldbob> what router?
[01:32] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: WNR2000
[01:33] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: By the way, I have a DUC that reflects the IP as a hostname and updates it, if that is relevent at all.
[01:33] <uglyoldbob> im not familiar with DUC
[01:34] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Dynamic Updating Client, updates a hostname to reflect a dynamic IP. Basically everytime my IP changes the DUC updates the hostname accordingly.
[01:34] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: so you are forwarding tcp ports 10011, 30033, and udp port 9987?
[01:34] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Yes
[01:36] <uglyoldbob> are you on a computer that is in the LAN?
[01:37] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Yes
[01:38] <uglyoldbob> can you connect using the static LAN IP (teamspeak client) ?
[01:39] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Yes I can, always have been able to yet WAN connections don't go through
[01:40] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: i should have the teamspeak client in 5 mins
[01:40] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Oh, thanks owo, thanks so much xD
[01:42] <lucasfl> Is there a way to choose which Apps use the dark variant of Adwaita in Gnome 3?
[01:44] <FernandoCueva> I don't want to use fuser I want to safely remove the device from terminal what is the command
[01:44] <FernandoCueva> a usb drive
[01:46] <balactus> bash autocomplete not working right for me in konsole, it work some of the time but not other times
[01:46] <balactus> if i type mount /mnt/f
[01:46] <balactus> [TAB]
[01:46] <balactus> it will autocomplete, but if i type sudo mount /mnt/f it will not
[01:46] <balactus> and if i su to root directly, it will work, so i know root recognizes the path
[01:47] <balactus> its just not consistant behavior, it will work some other time but not others, it dont seem to be working right
[01:49] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: what is the address for the teamspeak client?
[01:49] <FernandoCueva> ts3
[01:49] <sacarlson> balactus: maybe that user isn't in sudoers list?
[01:50] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: reignmari.no-ip.org
[01:51] <balactus> thatsx not the problem sacarlson
[01:51] <sacarlson> balactus: try sudo whoami ;
[01:51] <balactus> the problem is that bash autocomplete 'halfway works'
[01:51] <balactus> it works half of the time
[01:51] <sacarlson> balactus: oh ok got ya tab to autocomplete the line
[01:55] <FerchoLP> Hi. I leave my notebook for a few minutes and when I came back it was frozen. Black screen and nor ctrl-alt-f1, ctrl-alt-f2, either ctrl alt del did anything. I had to force it off with power button. THe question is, which log file can I read to try to figure out hat happened? I tried with dmesg logs and syslogs files but I've found anything. Any ideas where else can I look for?
[01:56] <FerchoLP> *left
[01:57] <i7c> FerchoLP: suspend / hibernate? sometimes doesn't go quite well
[01:57] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: well the only thing left to check is port forwarding rules on the router
[01:57] <balactus> http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/30827/how-does-bash-path-completion-work-with-sudo
[01:57] <FerchoLP> nono, it shouldn't go to suspend or hibernate. It should just start the screensaver
[01:58] <balactus> this was my exact problem, i found it sacarlson
[01:58] <balactus> issue is with bash-completion package
[01:58] <balactus> i guess it has different explicit rules set for certain commands like sudo
[01:58] <FerchoLP> I left it with the lid open and I haven't set it up to go to suspension nor hibernate :/
[01:58] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Hm, I forwarded the ports on the router... not quite sure what else to check on there unless I am missing something? Sorry, bit of a newb I am lol.
[01:59] <balactus> generic stuff like path completion that should alwayts work has some explicit rules messing with it there
[01:59] <sacarlson> FerchoLP: might be in screen saver try disable or increase the time see if the problem goes away,  if it changes then might be some part of that
[01:59] <balactus> ill have to look at that
[01:59] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: And interesting bit of info... when my windows firwall is on, "canyouseeme" reports "Timed Out"
[01:59] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: But when it is off, "canyouseeme" reports "Connection Rejected"
[01:59] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: http://tinygrab.com/ get a screenshot of the port forwarding config
[02:01] <FerchoLP> yes, I have had problems with the screensavers before (in other laptop). I don't remember if they froze the pc, but probably that was the problem this time. the only other user program that was running was gchrome.
[02:01] <FerchoLP> I'll try disabling them
[02:02] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: checking for updates, xD
[02:03] <rgravener> so 32 bit is only certified on devices?  how bout 64-bit?
[02:06] <fishcooker> hello fellas..
[02:06] <fishcooker> is there any different performance on sata/ide when we are install the brand new ubuntu on single partition rather than multiple partition?
[02:06] <fishcooker> [i dont talk about installation on Virtual Machine stuff]
[02:06] <fishcooker> any one with that experience?
[02:09] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: http://grab.by/cT3e
[02:09] <cookie> Hey guys. I am wanting to get an antenna for wireless signals (i live in the mountains, need the longest range possible)
[02:09] <mister2> hey, is there any ubuntu one-alike for mediafire?
[02:10] <cookie> however I know that not all antennas are supported
[02:10] <cookie> so whats the longest range antenna that is supported by ubuntu?
[02:10] <i7c> fishcooker: you ask if ide and sata have different performances?
[02:10] <Nullifi3d> cookie: ubuntu is not the limiting factor
[02:10] <uglyoldbob> fishcooker: only of the hard drive is faster than ide i believe
[02:10] <fishcooker> no no i7c
[02:10] <cookie> Nullifi3d: then what is the longest range antenna that I can get? google isn't helping
[02:11] <fishcooker> single /multiple partition
[02:11] <Nullifi3d> cookie: antennas arent really the problem
[02:11] <fishcooker> of course ide slower than sata
[02:11] <fishcooker> :p
[02:11] <i7c> :p
[02:11] <Nullifi3d> they are partly the solution, but the main factor is the strength of your wireless adapter
[02:11] <Nullifi3d> cookie: http://www.amazon.com/Alfa-AWUSO36NH-Wireless-Long-Rang-Network/dp/B0035APGP6
[02:11] <fishcooker> uglyoldbob: LoL
[02:11] <mister2> Nullifi3d: can't you have an externally powered antennae?
[02:12] <cookie> Nullifi3d: so what do I need to do to yield the longest range for my laptop?
[02:12] <Nullifi3d> the problem is signal strength
[02:12] <Nullifi3d> you need a powerful enough transmitter/receiver... or repeater... to get a signal
[02:12] <Nullifi3d> or amp. or whathaveyou
[02:12] <mister2> and is there a mediafire client? a la ubuntu one, preferably
[02:13] <cookie> Nullifi3d: I dont know much about this stuff... what is a repeater?
[02:13] <i7c> cookie: range extender
[02:13] <Nullifi3d> its a dumb device that reads a signal and repeats it much stronger
[02:13] <Nullifi3d> thats what most cell phone towers are
[02:14] <uglyoldbob> fishcooker: sure sata is faster than ide. can a go-cart go 70 mph just because i put it on the interstate?
[02:14] <Nullifi3d> cookie: http://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-NT-TL-ANT2424B-2-4G-24dBi/dp/B003CFATOW
[02:14] <Nullifi3d> that is a high gain directional antenna
[02:14] <fishcooker> ssd or even RAM would be the best choices uglyoldbob
[02:14] <fishcooker> :p
[02:15] <Nullifi3d> cookie: because water's resonating frequency happens to be 2.4ghz, depending on how humid it is your effective range will change
[02:15] <Nullifi3d> but on a nice sunny, dry day, between that antenna and the adapter i linked, you could get a signal from up to 1.5-2 miles away
[02:15] <vortmax> myth
[02:15] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: so the lan ip address of the server is <IP_ADDRESS> ? try "ifconfig" on the server
[02:15] <cookie> Nullifi3d: at the bottom is shows everything that is bought together...is that everything I need you think?
[02:16] <Nullifi3d> no
[02:17] <Nullifi3d> if you want to pursue this option, cookie, you will need the wireless adapter, the antenna, and something like this http://www.amazon.com/TRENDnet-Reverse-Weatherproof-Connector-TEW-L202/dp/B000EREM6C/ref=pd_rhf_dp_shvl6
[02:17] <Nullifi3d> thats it
[02:17] <Nullifi3d> and perhaps a pole to mount the antenna on if you want
[02:17] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: http://pastebin.com/iqn8yNfr
[02:17] <cookie> Nullifi3d: thanks so much
[02:18] <cookie> Nullifi3d: this is the adapter? http://www.amazon.com/TRENDnet-RP-TNC-RP-SMA-Adapter-TEW-AMBA/dp/B000NZNTVE/ref=pd_bxgy_e_img_c
[02:19] <CellTech> I'm about to ditch linux forever if it doesn't stop using up all my ram within a couple min... Nothing has changed. Same system as forever. But the ram useage is getting bad. What can I do to fix it?
[02:19] <Nullifi3d> cookie: yes but you will also need a cable that connects that adapter to the wireless adapter
[02:20] <i7c> CellTech: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/
[02:20] <Nullifi3d> cookie: http://www.amazon.com/TRENDnet-Reverse-Weatherproof-Connector-TEW-L208/dp/B000FICJ8S/ref=pd_bxgy_e_img_b includes both the adapter and the cable
[02:21] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: ok goto whatismyip.com and compare that to what the router says its public ip address is
[02:21] <i7c> CellTech: install htop and check ram, it shows free ram without disk caching memory.
[02:21] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: tell me if the match or don't match
[02:21] <cookie> So these 4 things (i think its actually 5) but 4 things to buy and I should be good to go right?
[02:21] <cookie> Nullifi3d: ^
[02:22] <Nullifi3d> yeah
[02:22] <CellTech> Well how do I make it just stop using it up? Windows never gave me these problems. I switched because i was sick of the crashing. Other then that Windows is the best with ram
[02:22] <Nullifi3d> on ubuntu you might run into driver issues
[02:22] <Nullifi3d> but nothing that shouldnt be hard to handle
[02:22] <Nullifi3d> ie. simply compiling drivers should do the trick
[02:22] <cookie> Nullifi3d: thanks again so much
[02:22] <i7c> CellTech: it is not necessary to change anything since that ram is available.
[02:22] <Nullifi3d> np
[02:23] <Nullifi3d> i have a similar setup i used to mess with on my laptop
[02:23] <CellTech> What I'm sayingi j bnhvbv
[02:23] <i7c> CellTech: you have htop installed?
[02:23] <CellTech> What I'm saying is. I can be on the computer for like 10min. Fast and perfect. Then like 10min later. It's slower than hell and it's annoying
[02:24] <i7c> CellTech: check processes, check what needs a lot of CPU and RAM
[02:25] <anthropos> CellTech, using all your ram is a feature, not a bug. unused ram is wasted ram.
[02:25] <sacarlson> CellTech: you will need to isolate what is using the ram,  run top to find out
[02:25] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Uhm, are you speaking in terms of the server? If I log onto the router from the server it will give me the server WAN IP but... I don't have a GUI and can't.
[02:25] <anthropos> CellTech, linux uses the extra ram you have to do useful things like disk caching
[02:25] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: I am on the router via my windows system, and have it's WAN IP
[02:25] <CellTech> Well it's annoying and I'm about to just go back to windows
[02:25] <anthropos> CellTech, it's not the reason your computer is becoming slow (the kernel 'using up' all your ram)
[02:25] <anthropos> it's probably attributable to some application you are running or a driver issue
[02:26] <anthropos> again, unused ram is wasted ram.
[02:26] <CellTech> Than god for open source right? How can I rewrite it to not do anything like that
[02:26] <balactus> ring3 apps like web browser (firefox) arent supposed to make x11/kernel freeze either
[02:26] <balactus> but thery do
[02:26] <CellTech> Linux is supposed to be fast and reliable on older systems.
[02:26] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: you can log into the router from any computer
[02:26] <anthropos> CellTech, did you check the cpu/memory usage of the applications? which application is being a hog?
[02:26] <balactus> the real world is quite different form 'supposed to'
[02:26] <anthropos> CellTech, linux is. again, this has nothing to do with the linux kernel
[02:26] <CellTech> Right now. It's more of a boat anchor
[02:26] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: does it match the ip from "whatismyip.com"
[02:27] <JelloPop> CellTech: May not be using the right version for older computer
[02:27] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Sure, but I am not sure how to log onto my router from a server with no GUI. I don't know a command I can enter to log onto my router owo
[02:27] <anthropos> CellTech, type top, and figure out which process is slowing things down
[02:27] <CellTech> Top where?
[02:27] <i7c> CellTech: well try to use the advice you are given here and check what needs ram/cpu with top or htop. if you dont want to, go back to windows. #windows is your friend then.
[02:27] <anthropos> CellTech, in the terminal.
[02:27] <anthropos> CellTech, it will list all the processes, sorted by cpu use. you should also look at memory use
[02:27] <anthropos> which top will also report
[02:27] <CellTech> K. What am I looking for?
[02:27] <sacarlson> CellTech: you can also clear cache if needed like when you run virtualbox;  sudo echo 3 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
[02:28] <anthropos> the columns labeled cpu and memory
[02:28] <JelloPop> CellTech: Going way to fast...Ur under standing of linux is off.. Mostly because ur using one distro
[02:28] <anthropos> or something to that effect
[02:28] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: as long as you are on a computer on the same LAN as the server, you will get the correct results
[02:28] <CellTech> VIRT?
[02:28] <anthropos> %CPU %MEM
[02:28] <CellTech> Xorg
[02:28] <anthropos> CellTech, how much cpu & mem is it using
[02:28] <reach> what does "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[02:28] <reach> E: _cache->open() failed, please report." means
[02:28] <CellTech> 1.2 and 2.0
[02:28] <anthropos> CellTech, 1.2 % and 2 % is very reasonable
[02:29] <anthropos> it is not the problem, right now. is your computer acting slow?
[02:29] <CellTech> Yes
[02:29] <haux> What is the proper syntax for chmod to give write permissions to a directory and every file within it?
[02:29] <JelloPop> CellTech: how old is this computer?
[02:29] <anthropos> well, nothing is using up all the cpu or memory. so that isn't the problem.
[02:29] <CellTech> Built for xp pro
[02:29] <i7c> CellTech: type free -m in the terminal and write what -/+ buffers/cache line says
[02:29] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Oh, alright then. Well, <IP_ADDRESS> | <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:29] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: IP's match
[02:29] <anthropos> CellTech, you could tyr installing iotop and see if anything is makign al ot of disk access
[02:30] <anthropos> but running out of memory is not the issue, evidently.
[02:30] <CellTech> I switched back to chromium because FF was slower than ever. It was the worse for ram
[02:30] <JelloPop> smg60231_: I figured by now u got this problem fixed with this router??
[02:30] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Nope =\
[02:30] <anthropos> presently, nothing is using more than 2 % of your ram, CellTech
[02:30] <anthropos> provided Xorg is the max
[02:30] <CellTech> Chromium bounces up to 14
[02:31] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Port scans say all of the ports on my network are closed... and I still can't open them. Can't accept any WAN connections coming into my server.
[02:31] <JelloPop> CellTech: Try xubuntu, might be the graphics in just this new Ubuntu interface
[02:31] <CellTech> That's what I'm actually on
[02:31] <CellTech> and it's pathetic
[02:31] <anthropos> chromium using 14 % of your ram should not result in a noticable slowdown, regardless.
[02:31] <reach> how can i make my computer run alot faster
[02:31] <anthropos> CellTech, try running gnome-system-monitor
[02:31] <haux> What is the proper syntax for chmod to give write permissions to a directory and every file within it?
[02:31] <JelloPop> smg60231_: Why are u using server in the first place????
[02:31] <CellTech> Well there's like 7 chromium-browse in the list
[02:31] <yeats> reach: seen this?: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/226361
[02:31] <anthropos> haux, write permissions to whom?
[02:31] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: what modem is the router connected to?
[02:31] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Because I am running a server o.o
[02:31] <i7c> CellTech: that's normal
[02:32] <haux> anthropos, myself. After a reinstall, there's a directory that is only writeable by root.
[02:32] <JelloPop> smg60231_: Do u have like 10 computers hooked upto some lane???
[02:32] <CellTech> Well what can we do that'll 'flush' the RAM when it's not in use. Like it's supposed to be. Random Access... Not fill it up and force a restart
[02:32] <smg60231_> uglyoldbob: Eh, couldn't give you a model # atm. I'll have to go look if you like, it's a Cisco, I go through Earthlink (Time Warner Cable)
[02:32] <anthropos> haux, what d irectory
[02:32] <anthropos> CellTech, this does not appear to be a ram issue. i don't know why you are convinced it is
[02:32] <i7c> CellTech: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/
[02:33] <i7c> CellTech: pls read it. it will light you up.
[02:33] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Eh? No, I simply rather use no GUI for simple things like a server, when it works correctly. I figured it made sense that I host a server on a server OS o.o
[02:33] <JelloPop> CellTech: I think system needs lighter distro
[02:33] <i7c> JelloPop: he just went back to windows.
[02:33] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Also, I am still not quite sure this is a problem with Ubuntu, but a problem with my router/network.
[02:33] <haux> anthropos, a directory a created prior to the reinstall. I just need to know how to use chmod properly... I must not be understanding something. sudo chmod +w -R dirname   isn't doing anything
[02:33] <balactus> what is a 'server os'
[02:34] <haux> Oh crap
[02:34] <anthropos> haux, to do it recursively just for oyur user: chmod -R u+w directory
[02:34] <haux> I need to use chown don't I...
[02:34] <anthropos> but yes
[02:34] <anthropos> you probably want to chown it
[02:34] <JelloPop> i7c: virus scan that computer...
[02:34] <smg60231_> balactus: Windows Server, Ubuntu Server, an Operating System designed to run as, or host a server.
[02:34] <haux> Facepalm
[02:34] <balactus> i dont understand
[02:34] <anthropos> chown -R user:group <directory>
[02:34] <i7c> JelloPop: huh?
[02:34] <anthropos> change the group as well as the user
[02:34] <balactus> are you saying a 'non server os' is not as efficient at handling computing/io resources
[02:34] <balactus> i dont see the point of a 'server os'
[02:34] <balactus> unless its bells and whistles
[02:35] <balactus> are you claiming there is some architectual difference
[02:35] <anthropos> are you referring to ubuntu server, balactus
[02:35] <JelloPop> smg60231_: what are u hosting??? a webpage?? what??
[02:35] <balactus> anthalamus, im referring to anything you're calling a 'server os'
[02:35] <anthropos> it is just a distribution of linux tailored toward servers. there is nothing inherently different baout it
[02:35] <haux> anthropos, yeah. I got it, thanks. chown -R haux:haux UBUNTU_HOME. I don't know what I was thinking
[02:35] <anthropos> i don't think there is any such thing as a pure "Server OS" and i would never use such a term
[02:35] <balactus> ok thats what i wanted to know
[02:35] <anthropos> but there are distributions of linux that are intended to be used on servers
[02:35] <balactus> i mean im not using windows desktop for a server
[02:35] <smg60231_> JelloPop: VoIP. Windows is laggy as hell, and any GUI on the system is laggy as hell, so I run Ubuntu Server with no GUI.
[02:36] <balactus> but the os should be the same efficiency at handling hw resources
[02:36] <balactus> thats what i was getting at
[02:36] <anthropos> linux is linux
[02:36] <anthropos> ubuntu desktop and server both run on the linux kernel
[02:36] <chris_> Anyone familiar with applying the mac os theme for ubuntu 11.10?  I tried to do it but can't seem to get it right
[02:36] <anthropos> it's just a different installer, different default configuration, differne't set of applications installed by default, etc.
[02:37] <JelloPop> smg60231_: good luck! Dont see were ur going with this? I wish u the best! :)
[02:37] <i7c> chris_: why? :(
[02:37] <smg60231_> JelloPop: I am confused as to where you are going with this o.o . I've run the server on Ubuntu Server for two years, and am just now having a problem. Standard Linux Ubuntu comes with a hefty GUI that lags my system.
[02:38] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Linux Ubuntu Server does not... makes sense, no?
[02:38] <balactus> you can always remove x
[02:38] <balactus> do a minimal install
[02:38] <balactus> and build what u need from there
[02:38] <smg60231_> balactus: Last time I did minimal the system refused to boot
[02:38] <balactus> heh
[02:38] <reach> smg60231: huh, could you elaborate?
[02:39] <smg60231_> balactus: Also, why do that if I don't have to.
[02:39] <smg60231_> reach: As in, it began to load and then froze up. Every time.
[02:39] <JelloPop> smg60231_: No, I would use slakcware or Arch Linux, but thats me! If u want the best desktop then u use the best desktop.. Not a server for a desktop..  I think you are misunderstanding me. I am here on my desktop with Windows seven talking to you. This is the computer I actually use.
[02:40] <uglyoldbob> smg60231: can you get the model number of the modem?
[02:40] <balactus> or whatever login manager u prefer
[02:40] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Meanwhile, my server is in another room, and I am connected to it over SSH.
[02:40] <chris_> hello
[02:40] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Not being used as a desktop o.o
[02:40] <smg60231_> JelloPop: If it was, I would have a GUI... but it isn't, and it lags with one, so I don't o.o
[02:41] <JelloPop> smg60231_: Well I would not use Ubuntu server, Slackware, Debian make more sense..
[02:42] <chris_> i7c_:  I don't know I followed the steps, but am not getting the right results
[02:42] <JelloPop> smg60231_: That is my personel choice and not to say Ubuntu server wont work just as well..
[02:42] <smg60231_> JelloPop: I would ask you why, but I wouldn't understand.  I simply know how to start up my DUC and server, and a few basic commands. Other than that, I am mostly Windows. I have used Ubuntu previously, and it has worked for 2 years... so I continue to use it. Sorry, I don't know much about anything else lol.
[02:43] <anthropos> this is #ubuntu so I don't understand why people are being told not to use ubuntu server...
[02:43] <smg60231_> JelloPop: I have never used anything else but Ubuntu. I am confused enough as it is, and know the pure basics... I'd rather grasp this before going on to something else lol.
[02:44] <smg60231_> anthropos: Was sorta thinking that but... didn't want to say anything. And also... I don't want to argue o.o I am confused as is. uglyoldbob was being so kind as to assist me in some network troubles I am having...
[02:45] <balactus> uglyoldbob, is that what you call ollydbg :P
[02:45] <JelloPop> smg60231_: U need help suggest looking at LInuxquestions.org have lots of material and may take a day or two but someone will answer ur question...
[02:46] <JelloPop> smg60231_: go to linuxquestion.org furoms post there are 100's of users using servers there..
[02:46] <chris_> Would anyone mind helping me figure out my theming issues on ubuntu 11.10?
[02:46] <Roey> Hey all, I'm using OpenVPN to pipe traffic from my laptop in Starbucks through my server at my apartment.  The VPN connection only works when I disable the fw on the server, so it's definitely something in the firewall.  Can you look it over for me please?  Here are the rules in iptables-restore format:   http://pastebin.com/LngiW03F ; and here are some extra rules I execute after loading with iptables-restore:  http://past
[02:46] <Roey> ebin.com/PtmFGtdS
[02:47] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Possibly I will, however... this IRC is here for Linux help and discussion, right? So there is no problem with me being here either, I don't think >.>
[02:47] <JelloPop> smg60231_: Good Luck! Wish u the best :)
[02:47] <anthropos> Roey, did you check the firewall logs to see what is being rejected?
[02:48] <anthropos> Roey, if you use ufw, there should be a ufw log in /var/log
[02:48] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Thanks :)
[02:49] <Roey> anthropos:  just iptables/netfilter
[02:49] <chris_> Anyone familiar with theming ubuntu 11.10?  I'm using gnome tweak and have somewhat the same result as online, but for some reason its not right
[02:49] <LaterMan> Chaka Khan
[02:49] <Roey> anthropos:  oh, I do have a /var/log/ufw.log, and it's empty
[02:50] <anthropos> Roey, k. you can try to log the packets you drop/reject and then turn the rules on piecewise
[02:50] <anthropos> i don't know offhand what openvpn requires you to open, but that method should work quite generally
[02:50] <Roey> how can I enable/disable logging?
[02:50] <anthropos> there is a log target
[02:50] <Roey> wellll I opened ports 1994 tcp and udp
[02:50] <anthropos> which you can substitute for reject/deny
[02:50] <anthropos> er, reject/drop
[02:50] <Roey> oh, true.
[02:50] <anthropos> honestly, if you turn the rules on one at a time, you prob. don't even need to log.
[02:51] <Roey> true.
[02:51] <anthropos> but if you're impatient jsut put them all to log and then turn it on
[02:51] <Roey> brb
[02:51] <crshbndct> hey chaps
[02:51] <LaterMan> how about a nice link on why upgrading to 12.04 fails on a freshy ubuntustudio 11.10 install :D
[02:51] <trendlogic> pagi
[02:51] <balactus> i dunno, what exactly fails
[02:51] <anthropos> logging is useful too for the case where the default policy (e.g. drop) or a very general rule is blocking access
[02:51] <balactus> is the problem during reboot
[02:51] <balactus> what do you mean by' fails'
[02:51] <Roey> anthropos:  well logically it would appear that it is MISSING a rule to allow something OUT
[02:52] <Roey> because I have a big rule at the top rejecting all packets
[02:52] <LaterMan> una momento it will only take a moment to get the error, i failed at being prepared.
[02:52] <Roey> (and subsequent rules selectively allow different packet types)
[02:52] <balactus> i still have problems with my rules, even after allowing proper loopback on in and out chains
[02:52] <Roey> anthropos:  ah.. ok, how do I log for that default drop policy?
[02:52] <balactus> sometimes conntrack seems to stall or lag for a while
[02:52] <anthropos> Roey, it would be easier to debug if the rules to allow packets in preceded the rule to drop everything (or you didn't even have such a rule, and instead used a default policy)
[02:52] <balactus> and new connections will stall
[02:53] <balactus> but old ones are fine
[02:53] <anthropos> then you just put a target as the final rule to log everything that gets that far
[02:53] <anthropos> which will be dropped anyways if that's the default policy
[02:53] <LaterMan> dammit brb dinner
[02:53] <balactus> might wanna put in a REJECT before the default drop too on the outgoing at least
[02:53] <Roey> anthropos:  ok
[02:54] <LaterMan> This is the error i get when i try to upgrade to 12.04
[02:54] <LaterMan> Error during commit
[02:54] <LaterMan> 'E:Couldn't configure pre-depend libtinfo5 for libncurses5, probably a dependency cycle.'

[02:54] <FloodBot1> LaterMan: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:54] <LaterMan> brb
[02:56] <Roey> anthropos:  ah, it's the FORWARD bit:  *filter
[02:56] <Roey> # :FORWARD DROP [0:0]
[02:56] <Roey> :FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]
[02:56] <FloodBot1> Roey: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:57] <Roey> sorry.
[02:57] <Roey> anthropos:  traffic works like that
[02:57] <Roey> now.
[02:57] <ntr0py> Great! Now every Flash video is BLUE
[02:57] <ntr0py> how can i get flash 11.1 again?
[02:57] <Roey> meep
[02:57] <Roey> oh good.
[02:57] <Roey> anthropos:  so I would like to enable logging on that chain
[02:57] <Roey> how do I do that?
[02:58] <anthropos> Roey, just add a log target right before wherever the packetrs would be dropped. if they are dropped by a defauly policy, that would be at the end of a chain
[02:58] <ntr0py> Is this an april 1st joke from the developers ?
[02:58] <Roey> I don't know enough netfilter syntax to do that
[02:58] <Roey> could you help me out?
[02:58] <Roey> anthropos:  see above
[02:59] <anthropos> something like this should work: iptables -A <chain> -j LOG
[02:59] <Roey> anthropos:  so iptables -A FORWARD -j LOG
[02:59] <Roey> ?
[02:59] <Roey> er
[03:00] <Roey> iptables -A FORWARD -j /path/to/logfile ?
[03:00] <anthropos> if the packets are being dropped at the end of the forward chain (e.g. by a default policy of drop), then iptables -A FORWARD -j LOG
[03:00] <anthropos> just LOG, not the logfile
[03:00] <tallboy_2> Is there a way to "force" unity to work with my graphics card, even if it's not supported?  My intel card should support 3D and it did up through 10.10.  Ubuntu 11.04, 11.10 and 12.04 doesn't allow it. Help!
[03:00] <anthropos> it will go to syslogd which will decide where to log them
[03:00] <Roey> anthropos:  got it
[03:00] <anthropos> tallboy_2, is the module for your video card blacklisted?
[03:02] <ntr0py> anyone got flash 11.2 working with nvidia vdpau on x64? Updates broke my working system now all videos are blue!! Damn i never should trust updates on April 1st again!!!
[03:02] <tallboy_2> lspci -k shows this:  00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01)
[03:02] <tallboy_2> 	Subsystem: Dell Device 0160
[03:02] <tallboy_2> 	Kernel driver in use: i915
[03:02] <tallboy_2> 	Kernel modules: intelfb, i915
[03:03] <Roey> hmm
[03:03] <Roey> anthropos:  how do I turn off logging?
[03:04] <ntr0py> how do u revert from an broken update?
[03:04] <balactus> mount /dev/null /var
[03:04] <balactus> xd
[03:04] <balactus> jk
[03:04] <balactus> i wonder if that would even work heh
[03:05] <anthropos> Roey, remove the iptables target
[03:05] <anthropos> replace -A with -D
[03:05] <Roey> ok.
[03:05] <anthropos> s/target/rule
[03:05] <Roey> And what kind of messages am I looking for in syslog now?
[03:05] <CellTech> '/etc/sysctl.conf' permission denied?
[03:05] <sacarlson> balactus: I think the device needs to be formated before it can be mounted so I don't think that would work
[03:05] <Roey> anthropos:  no forwarded packets appeared rejected
[03:06] <anthropos> then they are dying elsewhere, or the fw is not the problem
[03:06] <Roey> ok.
[03:06] <tallboy_2> anthropos:  where is the blacklist for the video module?
[03:06] <Roey> anthropos:  thanks
[03:06] <Roey> I'll ping you tomorrow
[03:06] <Roey> if I still have issues
[03:06] <LaterMan> back
[03:07] <anthropos> tallboy_2, there are lists of blacklisted modules in /etc/modprobe.d
[03:07] <anthropos> if your module is loaded and you can see it via lsmod, it is not blacklisted
[03:09] <drgnu> hello world!
[03:09] <drgnu> Is anyone else using Ubuntu 11.04 and having issues with FireFox and Thunderbird menu's suddenly lagging?
[03:09] <tallboy_2> anthropos:  Any idea on a workaround?  I'm running 11.04 at the moment and need desktop zoom to work again.
[03:10] <anthropos> tallboy_2, no, nt unless you conclude your card is blacklisted. the best thing would be to search for people with the same card and the same problem
[03:10] <ntr0py> which gpu is best to buy/best supported on ubuntu linux?
[03:10] <anthropos> ntr0py, nvidia
[03:10] <drgnu> Interesting... I installed the compiz configurator to have a good desktop zoom for screencasting.... not sure if that messed up thunderbird and firefox or not, nothing else is messed up though
[03:11] <anthropos> the ati drivers are inferior to the nvidia drivers in linux
[03:11] <Roey> anthropos:  ok... I found pieces like this that I know were rejected (I tried to ping from the client laptop):  Apr  1 23:10:26 gear kernel: [132468.108419] IN=eth0 OUT=tun0 MAC=00:1d:7d:d0:1f:3e:68:7f:74:64:8c:97:08:00 SRC=<IP_ADDRESS> DST=<IP_ADDRESS> LEN=84 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=55 ID=56238 PROTO=ICMP TYPE=0 CODE=0 ID=25350 SEQ=22
[03:12] <ntr0py> anthropos: ok but with my GT-240 modesetting wont work with nouveau and now with nvidia binary drivers flash videos got color swapped?!
[03:12] <anthropos> k, the other packets could have been rejected elsewhere, though
[03:12] <Roey> anthropos:  I mean that was a rejected packet
[03:12] <anthropos> ntr0py, i have never had the latter problem. in some cases the nvidia drivers have problems--the yare not great--but they are lot better than the ati drivers on average
[03:12] <Roey> sorry, I realized that the firewall was still accepting forwarded packets.  So I reverted back to what I had before, and logged the packets that are now being rejected.
[03:13] <anthropos> Roey, k. but a rejected ping should not mess up your openvpn
[03:13] <Roey> the ping goes out but I don't get anything back.
[03:13] <ntr0py> anthropos: are you using nvidia or nouveau?
[03:13] <anthropos> ntr0py, nvidia
[03:13] <Roey> anthropos: yet it appears every second in the server log.
[03:13] <ntr0py> anthropos: with GPU do you use?
[03:13] <Roey> anthropos:  I believe it is getting blocked on the way back from the internet hose
[03:13] <droid-0854> 10.04 firefox update known bugs site location?  Please
[03:13] <anthropos> Roey, ignoring icmp echo requests (pings) is not unusual. so just because your cojputer doesn't respond to pings doesn't mean the vpn isn't working
[03:14] <Roey> well with the FORWARD ACCEPT the ping completes though
[03:14] <anthropos> ntr0py, this computer has a gtx 460 i think
[03:14] <Roey> I am pinging an Internet host through the VPN
[03:14] <haux> Is there a guide available on how to recompile the kernel in xubuntu?
[03:15] <anthropos> it would be odd for a icmp echo reply to get blocked, but it's possible, e.g. if the firewall is just dropping all icmp packets or something like that
[03:15] <Roey> anthropos:  the client laptop is connected to the VPN server; the client laptop is trying to ping a host out on the Internet, using the server's VPN connection.
[03:15] <JelloPop> smg60231_: Sure u didn't have a powersurge and need to restart router?
[03:15] <anthropos> Roey, try something other than a ping. something using tcp
[03:15] <Roey> anthropos:  the ping goes through fine when I have FORWARD ACCEPT
[03:15] <ntr0py> anthropos: ah then you already have fermi architecture, mine is one generation before :-/
[03:15] <Roey> anthropos:  ok, one moment
[03:15] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Yes, and even at that, I've done it many times, trust me :)
[03:16] <Roey> anthropos:  and I get packets like..
[03:17] <Roey> anthropos:  that was the result of trying to load a web page from the client laptop
[03:17] <Roey> a web page of a host on the intenret
[03:17] <Roey> *internet
[03:17] <JelloPop> smg60231_: just odd was reading uglyoldbob notes seeing if anything came to mind...
[03:17] <droid-0854> Im running firefox w/o no script.  It remembers no history and as of late the back button got sluggish.  10.04
[03:18] <anthropos> is your firewall accepting packets in all chains that have state related or established, Roey
[03:18] <Roey> oh
[03:18] <Roey> no
[03:18] <Roey> not in the FORWARD chain...
[03:18] <anthropos> it probably should be unless you know otherwise
[03:18] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Hm, yeah... well, this has never happened to me before and quite honestly, I haven't a damned clue as to what is wrong lol.
[03:19] <Roey> anthropos:  so I should add something like... -A FORWARD -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
[03:19] <anthropos> yes something like that
[03:19] <anthropos> you may need to tinker with the location of that rule but -A is prob find
[03:19] <anthropos> *Fine
[03:20] <ntr0py> anthropos: do you know how i can swap colors in flash video?
[03:21] <anthropos> ntr0py, haha, no.
[03:21] <Roey> anthropos:  here's my table now, and yes it works:  http://pastebin.com/RGZVTNas
[03:21] <anthropos> see if anyone else has your issue, if you have not already
[03:21] <damiank> unity+compiz = very ugly crashes on my system :(
[03:22] <anthropos> Roey, nice
[03:22] <Roey> !! :)
[03:22] <Roey> thanks!
[03:22] <Roey> now how could someone hack this...
[03:22] <anthropos> the overall securit yis probably dictated by factors other than your firewall config
[03:22] <ntr0py> anthropos: if thats an april 1st joke from adobe/cannonical i fail to see the funny aspect of it
[03:23] <nickie> can someone please help me troubleshoot why my usb microphone isn't working?
[03:23] <Roey> anthropos:  here's a blurb about this, now that I know what we were looking for:  http://serverfault.com/questions/39307/linux-ip-forwarding-for-openvpn-correct-firewall-setup
[03:23] <Guest6565> hi
[03:23] <anthropos> haha
[03:23] <nickie> the cam that its attached to works fine.
[03:23] <nickie> and a regular line-in mic works too.
[03:23] <Guest6565> can you hear me?
[03:23] <Roey> anthropos:  and here:  https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-security-4/iptables-is-blocking-my-openvpn-internet-access-521722/
[03:24] <Roey> that is even more clear (look at the final message)
[03:25] <anthropos> yeah
[03:25] <Guest6565> well i am resting mango lite on iphone
[03:25] <Guest6565> testing
[03:25] <Guest6565> not sure if anybody can hear me
[03:26] <Roey> anthropos:  hell yeah! thanks so much!
[03:26] <anthropos> yes we can see what you are typing Guest6565
[03:26] <anthropos> np Roey
[03:26] <Guest6565> cool
[03:26] <Guest6565> hank you so much
[03:26] <CellTech> Ok. How come I can't get into '/etc/sysctl.conf'?
[03:26] <Guest6565> mango irc client is pe
[03:26] <Guest6565> retty good
[03:27] <anthropos> CellTech, you need to edit it with sudo or something that gives you root privileges
[03:27] <CellTech> I did sudo and I get an error message
[03:27] <anthropos> well, what is the error message...
[03:27] <CellTech> "Command not found"
[03:27] <anthropos> what did you type
[03:27] <JelloPop> smg60231_: found this http://askubuntu.com/questions/91543/apt-get-update-fails-to-fetch-files-temporary-failure-resolving-error  they seem to using repostories that run backports...
[03:29] <CellTech> Any other things I can do? I'm 'admin' on all things in the users menu
[03:30] <smg60231_> JelloPop: Thank you, I believe the issue is resolved now, thanks to uglyoldbob . DUC wasn't updating correctly it seems o.o . But none the less, checkers say all of my ports are closed. Still don't know what that is all about.
[03:30] <ntr0py> Flash is just pure junk: i have to reload youtube 3 times to get an video surface, then video is color swapped and i cannot disable hw acceleration because context menu is unclickable: GREAT !
[03:31] <rinzler> ok, so as a RAID noob, is it ok to shutdown my machine while the array is "resyncing"?
[03:31] <ntr0py> And hey 11.2 is latest version linux will ever see, so its great to be left stuck with those bugs. Why doesnt google remove flash from their sites completely???
[03:32] <anthropos> ntr0py, are you using youtube's html5 experiment?
[03:32] <anthropos> most youtube videos can be viewed via html5
[03:33] <ntr0py> anthropos: i would like to use it, but every video with adds (a lot!) wont play without flash :-/
[03:33] <sparky-> rinzler: not nice but assuming no further drives will die, should be alright
[03:41] <ntr0py> Does someone know the url of the ubuntu partner repo?
[03:42] <richarx> heyyy ....  somebody work with Websphere MQ on ubuntu ??
[03:42] <uglyoldbob> is there a trick to compiling gcc-2.95.3 on ubuntu-10.04?
[03:43] <richarx> nobody ???
[03:43] <matt_> uglyoldbob, gcc 2??
[03:43] <uglyoldbob> its for linux-2.4
[03:44] <Grivvel> Does anyone know how I'd flush a named pipe via the command line? I tried doing "cat pipename > /dev/null", but that doesn't exit once the pipe is flushed.
[03:44] <matt_> uglyoldbob, well, you probably have to look through some archives
[03:45] <ntr0py> where can i get the old versions of http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/pool/partner/a/adobe-flashplugin/              ?
[03:49] <nimbiotics> Hello evry1. I'm using ubuntu 11.10 and in the past couple of week it is not shutting down or hibernating. Can someone tell me how to fix this issue? TIA!
[03:50] <nimbiotics> oops, sry, wring channel
[03:50] <nimbiotics> nope, this is the right one
[03:50] <CellTech> Anyone yet? Know why I'm being denied access to changing my sawppiness?
[03:51] <zykotick9> CellTech: that's certainly something requiring root permission, are you using sudo?
[03:51] <CellTech> yes
[03:51] <family> Hi, does anybody know how to configure the boot screen so I don't have to select the OS to boot into?
[03:52] <family> I want it to automatically go into linux
[03:53] <CellTech> Let me get you the actual error
[03:53] <zykotick9> !grub2 | family i'd guess it would be covered in this link most likely.
[03:54] <CellTech> Command not found when I type in 'sudo /etc/sysctl.conf'
[03:55] <zykotick9> CellTech: /etc/sysct.conf is a file, not a program
[03:55] <CellTech> I want to change the swappiness
[03:55] <ntr0py> CellTech sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf
[03:55] <CellTech> So I have to open it
[03:56] <CellTech> zykotick9: I want to open the file and change the swappiness value is what I"m attempting to do
[03:57] <zykotick9> CellTech: sorry, I've never messed with swappiness before, i don't know how it's done (or why it would be necessary)
[03:58] <anthropos> CellTech, vm.swappiness = whatever
[03:58] <anthropos> in /etc/sysctl.conf
[03:58] <anthropos> the default is 60, most people want to lower it.
[03:58] <CellTech> I can't get the file open to change it. Many sites say to lower it from 60 down to 15
[03:59] <anthropos> do what ntr0py told you to do
[03:59] <anthropos> sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf
[03:59] <anthropos> add the line I said with whatever value you want
[04:00] <CellTech> Tried the nano thing. and it' just took me to a bunch of stuff in the terminal
[04:00] <ntr0py> CellTech: then try sudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf
[04:00] <anthropos> it's working, that "bunch of stuff" is the content of the sysctl.conf file...
[04:00] <zykotick9> !gksudo | ntr0py CellTech
[04:00] <CellTech> command not found again
[04:02] <CellTech> All say no command found
[04:02] <Grivvel> Does anyone know if there's any way to check if a named pipe has a reader currently from the command line? I'd like to run a certain command only if nothing is currently reading from a named pipe.
[04:02] <anthropos> nano was working.
[04:03] <uglyoldbob> s/-ass / ass-/ ?
[04:03] <CellTech> I'm just gonna give up on linux.. especially xubuntu. I hate this distro...
[04:03] <CellTech> Thanks anyways
[04:04] <ntr0py> CellTech: if you have Gnome/lokal X-Server try "gksudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf" or stay in the terminal and use nano with "sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf" and use [Ctrl] + [O] to save it and [Ctrl] + [X] to close
[04:04] <zykotick9> ntr0py: CellTech left
[04:04] <enyawix> how do you disable pulseaudio? is conflicts with the hardware mixing on my sound card it would be a real pain to recompile many apps to force it off the system.
[04:06] <zykotick9> enyawix: i don't have pulse on my system so can't check easily, but there is a pasuspend or similar command you should check out.
[04:08] <family> thank you ubottu, but that link is to repair the grub, I need to set automatic boot. This isn't my computer and the client will not like having to select the right one every time.
[04:08] <xiewanchen> Excuse  me , I want to find a net friend .who would like to be my friend ?
[04:09] <zykotick9> family: it's the grub2 page you should have a look at.  you need to set default=0 and a timeout of some sort to the grub config file, then run "sudo update-grub" to apply the changes.  good luck.
[04:09] <ntr0py> family: ubottu is a bot
[04:10] <Shaniqua_Kwon> !ot | xiewanchen
[04:10] <VGoff> I have a problem I have been working on for like 20 hours.  No matter what I do, I cannot install php5 on 10.04.  Adding ppa's do not help.
[04:10] <xiewanchen> sorry
[04:11] <ntr0py> family maybe take a look into /etc/default/grub
[04:11] <VGoff> Package php5 is not available, but is referred to by another package. is the most helpful message I haev received so far.
[04:11] <Shaniqua_Kwon> VGoff: Isn't it in the official repository?
[04:12] <VGoff> Exactly part of my confusion. :)
[04:12] <Logan_> VGoff: Have you tried sudo apt-get update?
[04:12] <VGoff> yes, indeed.
[04:12] <VGoff> I even added a ppa to make sure that it was operating as expected.
[04:15] <ntr0py> does anyone know if its possible with btrfs to make an auto snapshot before any packages get updated/upgraded automatically?
[04:16] <Logan_> VGoff: Weird. Is your sources.list normal?
[04:17] <VGoff> It was... until I added that one additional Logan_
[04:17] <family> ok that is what I was looking for but I have no ideal what to change. ntr0py
[04:18] <zykotick9> !info php5 lucid | Logan_ VGoff
[04:18] <ntr0py> family: what is the current state and what u want to change it to ?
[04:18] <Logan_> zykotick9: And?
[04:18] <Logan_> I know it's in the repository.
[04:18] <zykotick9> Logan_: i'm saying you're right, it's in the default repo.
[04:19] <VGoff> Logan_, yes it is, and from the command line aptitude it lists.
[04:19] <family> here is what I did. I had ubuntu 12 on here but I hated it. so I installed xubuntu over it (option to update it to keep files). Then when booted it wouldn't connect to the internet. so....
[04:19] <gizmo> has anyone used ubuntu on a mac with parallels?
[04:19] <Logan_> VGoff: Try running sudo apt-get install -f
[04:19] <family> I booted to the old or previous Linux which is the same thing and the internet worked. so now I want to automatically boot to that one without having to set it each time.
[04:20] <family> if I just let the computer boot to the default, the internet will not work.
[04:21] <KurtKraut> ntr0py, I don't know if you can make a command be triggered by apt-get or aptitude to produce  the outcome you want, but you can make a shell script that does tree -filhD /usr/bin/, stores the output in a file and save de md5sum of this file
[04:21] <family> here are the options in grub if you can help, please.
[04:21] <family> GRUB_DEFAULT=0
[04:21] <family> #GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
[04:21] <family> GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
[04:21] <family> GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
[04:21] <family> GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
[04:21] <FloodBot1> family: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:22] <VGoff> Logan_, maybe getting closer... now getting: dpkg: warning: files list file for package `php5-common' missing, assuming package has no files currently installed.
[04:22] <KurtKraut> ntr0py, Then you check the md5sum every hour (or daily). If the md5sum changed, you may presume that an update/upgrade happened and trigger the snapshot
[04:22] <zykotick9> family: you need to set the GRUB_DEFAULT=X to the correct number, that corresponds to what you want to boot in /etc/default/grub then run that sudo update-grub to apply the changes (you might have to test a few numbers to find the right now)
[04:22] <galaxyace123> what is ubuntu????????????????????
[04:22] <Logan_> !ubuntu | galaxyace123
[04:22] <zykotick9> !ubuntu | galaxyace123
[04:22] <family> thank you
[04:23] <ntr0py> family https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#A.2BAC8-etc.2BAC8-default.2BAC8-grub_.28file.29   the GRUB_DEFAULT is what you are looking for. change it and run sudo update-grub then reboot
[04:23] <Logan_> VGoff: Anything other than that?
[04:23] <galaxyace123> thankyou, ubuntu is awesome
[04:24] <VGoff> https://gist.github.com/2280715
[04:24] <VGoff> Logan_, https://gist.github.com/2280715
[04:25] <Logan_> Looking.
[04:25] <KurtKraut> ntr0py, did you see my answer about your snapshot question?
[04:26] <Logan_> VGoff: sudo apt-get install phpapi-20090626
[04:26] <Logan_> VGoff: then try sudo apt-get install -f again
[04:26] <Logan_> VGoff: actually, no
[04:27] <Logan_> VGoff: looks like a bug with libapache2-mod-php5filter
[04:27]  * Logan_ checks the bugs
[04:27] <VGoff> ok
[04:29] <rinzler> anyone have any experience with iTunes under wine? I'm looking for recommendations before switching to it...
[04:29] <Logan_> VGoff: hmm, not sure, honestly... try removing all PPAs from your sources and then trying again
[04:29] <VGoff> So my sources.list should be empty?
[04:30] <Logan_> No... it should only have the Ubuntu repositories.
[04:30] <ntr0py> KurtKraut: yes but unfortunately im on ext4 right now and an update crashed my working sys so i was thinking about if btrfs could prevent that trouble on a future 12.04 by triggering a snapshot before any packages get changed
[04:34] <ntr0py> KurtKraut: maybe i will try using sth like http://askubuntu.com/questions/29891/how-does-apt-btrfs-snapshot-work
[04:46] <Arovij> Hi I want to install dummynet on ubuntu. Homepage is not very helpful http://info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/dummynet/
[04:48] <VGoff> Logan_, can you look at the aptitude terminal run, found something interesting.... https://gist.github.com/2280715
[04:49] <Logan_> VGoff: Not sure how to interpret that; sorry. :-P
[04:52] <VGoff> Have you ever ran the terminal version of aptitude?  I will see if there is a way to get the same information from apt- tools.
[04:55] <ChogyDan> VGoff: it is a dependency error
[04:56] <VGoff> When I try to install libmodapache2 however the following packages replace it:
[04:56] <VGoff>   php5-ldap
[04:56] <VGoff> yeah, getting that.  how in the world do I fix / find that?
[04:56] <VGoff> lo
[04:56] <VGoff> Logan_,
[04:57] <Logan_> Not sure. :-(
[04:57] <VGoff> lol, me either.  You take that paddle, I will grab this one, cause we are in the same boat thre.
[04:57] <ChogyDan> VGoff: do you need filter-module support?
[04:57] <ChogyDan> not that I know what that is, but it is related to your error
[04:58] <VGoff> It will be running moodle and wordpress... trying to get past moodle 1.9 for security and support reasons.
[04:58] <ChogyDan> VGoff: do you just want the lamp stack?
[04:58] <VGoff> ChogyDan, unfortunately the lamp stack has existed since 2005 or earlier... so dealing with an inheritance problem (mine).
[04:59] <ChogyDan> VGoff: I missed the beginning, are you just trying to update?
[05:00] <VGoff> ChogyDan, there was a recursive dependency problem, and fixed that today, regarding php5.  But now that everything (apparently not quite everything) was cleared out, that issue seems to be (mostly) gone, because prior they could not even install unassocated things, now I can at least do updates.
[05:00] <VGoff> Trying to install php5
[05:00] <VGoff> specifically php5.3
[05:00] <ChogyDan> VGoff: in oneiric?
[05:00] <VGoff> more specifically php5.3.2 if I can, on Lucid.
[05:02] <ChogyDan> VGoff: have you tried either installing libapache2-mod-php5     (ie, no filterwhatever support), or `sudo apt-get install lamp-server`?
[05:02] <ChogyDan> oops
[05:03] <ChogyDan> `sudo apt-get install lamp-server^`
[05:04] <VGoff> However the following packages replace it:
[05:04] <VGoff>   php5-ldap
[05:04] <VGoff> E: Package libapache2-mod-php5 has no installation candidate
[05:04] <VGoff> It was what you had started picking up on, actually.
[05:04] <ChogyDan> did you already pastebin those errors?
[05:04] <VGoff> And as far as installing lamp... not sure I want to do that with the existing mysql and apache already installed.  Just trying to get php back up and running.
[05:05] <VGoff> yeah...
[05:05] <VGoff> https://gist.github.com/2280715 ChogyDan
[05:05] <ChogyDan> go ahead and do the lamp command, you will have a chance to confirm
[05:06] <VGoff> lamp-server is not available
[05:06] <VGoff> even on my laptop running 10.04
[05:06] <ChogyDan> pastebin?
[05:07] <ChogyDan> also, can you include the commands run
[05:07] <ChogyDan> note: it is lamp-server^
[05:08] <ChogyDan> also, you could check apt-cache policy libapache2-mod-php5
[05:09] <VGoff> ChogyDan, sent the link above tagged with your nick.  Will check lamp-server^ again
[05:11] <ChogyDan> the link doesnt show the command you ran, does it?
[05:11] <VGoff> ChogyDan, lamp-server^ reports that everything is already the latest version, but does not mention php.
[05:12] <VGoff> And no, the command ran was aptitude for the one file with the title of aptitude console or whatever.
[05:12] <VGoff> The others are simply what is reflected there... mentioned when I pasted... but nothing more complex than apt-get install php5 or whatever file package is reflected
[05:12] <ChogyDan> well I can't help further unless you are willing to pastebin
[05:12] <VGoff> what would you like me to pastebin?
[05:13] <VGoff> You haven't asked me yet, I don't think... or I missed it.
[05:13] <VGoff> I thought you just asked if I pastebinned.
[05:13] <macbuntu> hello
[05:13] <ChogyDan> the output of the commands, ie, lamp-server^   also, what is the command for the first pastebin
[05:13] <macbuntu> ubuntu newb trying to get ubuntu working on my macbook
[05:14] <VGoff> " also, you could check apt-cache policy libapache2-mod-php5" totally missed that line.
[05:14] <macbuntu> Anyone want to help me get wifi working on mymacbook
[05:14] <VGoff> ok... let me see...
[05:14] <VGoff> first command was apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5filter
[05:14] <VGoff> let me do the apt-cache policy.
[05:16] <macbuntu> no one
[05:16] <VGoff> ChogyDan, https://gist.github.com/2280715
[05:17] <ChogyDan> can you pastebin the output of the lamp-server^ command?  Im suprised it didn't mention php
[05:17] <VGoff> I am working on that as we speak
[05:17] <Arovij> Are kernal modifications necessary for installing Dummynet on ubuntu? Thanks.
[05:18] <VGoff> ok, ChogyDan it is there.
[05:18] <VGoff> ChogyDan, not a single php reference even coincidentally.
[05:19] <ChogyDan> yeah, weird.  I dunno about that.  have you tried installing libapache2-mod-php5?    ie without filter support?
[05:21] <macbuntu> where can i find more info about fixing my wifi on my macbook
[05:21] <macbuntu> googling like crazy right now
[05:22] <VGoff> apt-cache policy is a little bit interesting... ChogyDan just updated the gist.
[05:23] <ChogyDan> macbuntu: are you googling with the hardware ids, like from lspci etc?
[05:24] <macbuntu> yea
[05:24] <macbuntu> i havent found anything useful
[05:24] <arizona> is there linux based courses?
[05:24] <VGoff> ChogyDan, how do you do that without fliter support?
[05:24] <ChogyDan> VGoff: yeah, that is interesting.  It looks like you have some pinning going on.  I don't know about that
[05:25] <ChogyDan> just install that package, it is a different name
[05:25] <VGoff> I noticed the pinning too, and that is interesting... I am going to research how to unpin it (I think there was something in aptitude (terminal) that I could do.
[05:25] <ChogyDan> libapache2-mod-php5filter has the filter support
[05:25] <ChogyDan> !pinning | VGoff
[05:25] <VGoff> !remove pinning | VGoff
[05:26] <VGoff> no help. lol
[05:26] <VGoff> checking out web page, thanks ubottu via ChogyDan
[05:26] <ChogyDan> VGoff: in the info, it says to only install that package if you need filter support, otherwise install libapache2-mod-php5
[05:26] <macbuntu> trying to get wifi working for the broadcom antennae
[05:27] <VGoff> yeah, not sure when I started usign the one with filter, but no difference, same messages.
[05:27] <ChogyDan> VGoff: maybe try reinstalling php5-common
[05:28] <ChogyDan> anyway, gotta sleep, g'night and gl
[05:30] <VGoff> lol, if I could install php5-common I would not be having this issue.  just lol'ing in frustration.  Pinning suggestion, none of the 3 files mentioned is modified to enable pinning.

[05:41] <LeroyJ> anyone have any good pointers on motd in ubuntu?
[05:42] <LeroyJ> i'm familure with it from other distros, but not understanding why i can't save to it in this one
[05:42] <hateball> LeroyJ: you mean editing /etc/motd ?
[05:42] <ActionParsnip> LeroyJ: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/change-ssh-welcome-banner-on-ubuntu/
[05:42] <LeroyJ> hateball: yes
[05:42] <LeroyJ> ActionParsnip: ty. i'll check it out
[05:43] <hateball> LeroyJ: There are scripts that run as cronjobs that set it regularly, if your problem is that it gets overwritten
[05:43] <ActionParsnip> LeroyJ: you'll need gk/sudo to get write access.
[05:43] <LeroyJ> ok, that is helpful also hateball. ty
[05:43] <LeroyJ> ty ActionParsnip
[05:44] <hateball> LeroyJ: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpdateMotd
[05:45]  * ActionParsnip has a clear command at the bottom of bashrc to wipe that stuff off :-)
[05:45] <LeroyJ> n1 ActionParsnip :)
[05:46] <LeroyJ> haven't been here in a little while. what is the other channel used for chatting ubuntu if it goes a little off subject?
[05:46] <ActionParsnip> !ot
[05:47] <LeroyJ> thanks again ActionParsnip
[05:47] <ActionParsnip> Np duder
[05:47] <ActionParsnip> LeroyJ: also ##club-ubuntu
[05:49] <system5> does anybody have any idea how often is Ubuntu 11.10 supposed to clear out the /var/log/wtmp file?
[05:50] <system5> the /var/log/wtmp file which determines the output you get for running the "last" command
[05:50] <system5> is it on the first of the month that logs rotate and the /var/log/wtmp file gets cleared out?
[05:51] <Wingede> Anyone using empathy as default irc client?
[05:51] <system5> no I use irssi
[05:51] <Marzata> here XChat
[05:51] <LeroyJ> <--irssi
[05:51] <system5> Wingede: what output do you see for ls -l for your /var/log/wtmp file or for output of your "last" command ?
[05:51] <obelus> KVIrc here.
[05:51] <Wingede> this bubble like stuff is doing my head in :(
[05:52] <system5> I ran the "last" command and it doesn't show any of the logins from before today, and ls -l /var/log/wtmp shows this:
[05:52] <system5> -rw-rw-r-- 1 root utmp 1536 2012-04-01 22:34 /var/log/wtmp
[05:53] <system5> I'm trying to figure out if this is normal behavior in Ubuntu that the /var/log/wtmp file gets reset on the 1st of the month or if it means somebody has been messing with the system
[05:53] <LeroyJ> that is normal system5
[05:53] <Marzata> system5: mine is empty
[05:53] <system5> ok cool, so the logrotate doesn't archive the old wtmp files for historical purposes? just blanks it out on the 1st of every month?
[05:54] <Wingede> last is ok at my end, I only installed this vm this afternoon - but everything appears ok so far
[05:54] <chilicuil> hi there, does anyone remember how can I enable one second wifi card to share internet?, does networkmanager support it?
[05:54] <system5> it's hard to know what "abnormal" behavior is, if you don't know what the "normal" behavior is, LOL
[05:55] <LeroyJ> system5: in some other distros it goes back until first boot
[05:56] <LeroyJ> there is probably a way to set that way in ubuntu
[05:58] <pikkachu> I have a problem with gpg keys
[05:58] <pikkachu> in the gui, the tool tells me it's already signed
[05:58] <pikkachu> but when I verify a key with gpg it warns me the authenticity of the key cannot be verified
[06:02] <system5> LeroyJ: yeah, I'm used to the output of the "last" command going back to the first boot, I just wanted to make sure that the fact that the /var/log/wtmp was recreated on the first of the month didn't mean that my system had been exploited or tampered with
[06:04] <LeroyJ> well lets hope it's not system5
[06:04] <LeroyJ> :)
[06:04] <LeroyJ> system5: now i want to change mine to go all the way back, but working on another project
[06:05] <mi3> how can I remove the server tabs on this xchat? they were not there on linux mint, but they are on ubuntu!
[06:05] <mi3> any suggestions?

[06:06] <plainjane> hi guys n gals
[06:07] <plainjane> any nokia n900 maemo owners in?
[06:09] <jonathon> How do I fix GRUB?
[06:10] <jonathon> I installed a second linux on a different partition, and I'm gonna remove it, But I need to restore the GRUB from my first linux, so that it loads up at start instead
[06:11] <arice> i am new here
[06:11] <pikkachu> hmm sorry for my question
[06:12] <pikkachu> I was using --homedir
[06:12] <plainjane> jonathon, need to edit your grub config
[06:13] <Jordan_U> jonathon: Is the first Linux install Ubuntu?
[06:13] <jonathon> Jordan_U Yea
[06:15] <mi3> hey guys, just needed a suggestion, do mirc themes work on xchat?
[06:15] <Jordan_U> jonathon: If the drive that your BIOS is booting from is /dev/sda, then boot into Ubuntu and run "sudo grub-install /dev/sda".
[06:16] <jonathon> Jordan_U, Alright thanks, I'm reboot, see if that worked
[06:16] <plainjane> fingers rossed
[06:18] <jonathon> Jordan_U, Alright that fixed it, Thanks
[06:18] <Jordan_U> jonathon: You're welcome.
[06:21] <pikkachu> why do I have two subkeys in my GPG key details?
[06:25] <insert> hi guys. I cannot set correct resolution on my Ubuntu. I have nvidia card, I installed proprietary drivers because I thought they're better, Jockey command shows this driver is in use, i made nvdia-xconfig, rebooted, but I cannot pick resolution higher than 800x600. In Xorg.log it says "unable to read edid for display device". What does it mean? Can I go back to nouveau, because previously I added used command to set a new resolution
[06:25] <insert> sorry, used xrandr command
[06:31] <insert> I think I should do something like this https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&client=firefox-a&hl=en&q=cache:57vIfrb0l0YJ:http://analogbit.com/fix_nvidia_edid+nvidia+edid+fix&ct=clnk
[06:45] <test> Good morning
[06:45] <test> How doesit work to ask for support in this chat?
[06:45] <test> I would have a technical question
[06:46] <newhaskeller> hey.. i installed ubuntu 11.10 on an old mac... the problem is that sometimes the screen dims and I can't use the physical buttons to make it bright again. This happens on opening certain applications
[06:46] <almoxarife> its a sophisticated system, you ask!
[06:46] <test> I ask.
[06:46] <Steevca> I have just upgraded ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04,and i can't get network to work.I have a DSL Modem.I also have two network cards,but i only use one because the second isn't working,can the other one cause problems?
[06:46] <almoxarife> yes, the question,
[06:47] <test> Since last ubuntu upate, youtube as well as all video players are not working anymore- on youtube, I don't even get the buttons
[06:47] <test> Is anyne aware of that? Thanks
[06:47] <test> Yesterday I reinstalled youtube, but no luck
[06:48] <Steevca> Reinstalled youtube?
[06:48] <obelus> ... how did you reinstall youtube?
[06:48] <almoxarife> re-installed youtube?
[06:48] <almoxarife> that must have taken a bit of time
[06:48] <test> sorry
[06:48] <test> I reinstalled ubuntu
[06:48] <test> you are right, sorry
[06:49] <Steevca> :D
[06:49] <newhaskeller> how do I fix this screen dimming issue... I cannot get any work done
[06:49] <Steevca> Can ayone help me with my issue?
[06:49] <almoxarife> test: short answer, get rid of what ever browser you have and install 'chromium-browser' , bet you can see your youtubes then
[06:49] <test> Many thanks almoxarife
[06:50] <obelus> newhaskeller: I'm not sure where the settings are in Gnome/Unity, but if you change power settings so that it doesn't dim the screen after inactivity
[06:50] <obelus> In Gnome3/Unity, you can probably type 'power' into the dashboard to find it.
[06:50] <almoxarife> newhaskeller: dimming is a function on your 'power-settings/saver/saving' , make it stop dimming there
[06:50] <newhaskeller> obelus: i already unchecked the dim on idle options from the settings
[06:51] <newhaskeller> however, it should not dim each time I open firefox
[06:51] <almoxarife> newhaskeller: no, it should not
[06:51] <obelus> newhaskeller: You're right on that one - I'm  not sure why it would be doing that - bad video drivers maybe?
[06:52] <newhaskeller> obelus: i am guessing so... but I cannot find what appropriate drivers I must install
[06:55] <newhaskeller> How does one determine the hardware for which drivers are needed?
[06:55] <newhaskeller> i.e, the model number, etc
[06:56] <obelus> newhaskeller: For the model number, it'd probably be in the output of 'sudo lspci', but I'm not sure exactly what you'd install for Macs.
[07:02] <newhaskeller> has anyone seen damo22 around these days?
[07:03] <newhaskeller> he has a similar system
[07:03] <obelus> Not sure, sorry. I've got to go for a while though. Good luck with your dimming problem
[07:04] <mobile> how do i change my nickname
[07:05] <obelus> mobile: type /nick <newnickhere>
[07:05] <obelus> That being said, I really need to go, so have fun guys.
[07:05] <newhaskeller> obelus: see you later
[07:06] <Syria_> Hello, Please tell me how can I update my current version of Gnome 3 to Gnome 3.4? ubuntu 11.10
[07:06] <samorai> cool obelus
[07:06] <anthropos> does seahorse remember the password for anyone's locally-stored private ssh key?
[07:06] <anthropos> it doesn't seem to remember mine
[07:07] <newhaskeller> how do i search through recent logs of #ubuntu
[07:07] <auronandace> !logs | newhaskeller
[07:09] <newhaskeller> !logs

[07:16] <Jason1> Hi. The "focus" animation - Dodge in compiz doesn't work the way it should.  When I click another window, it first comes forward and then bounces up and down - instead of the windows dodging each other. Any help?
[07:27] <Syria> How can I update to Gnome 3.4 please?
[07:33] <multiHYP> hi all
[07:33] <DevilSH> hi
[07:38] <NameLess-exe> hello, it seems that my laptops backlight isn't working in ubuntu 11.10 64bit
[07:38] <Kristof_D> after the last updates, flash suddenly doesn't work in firefox. I have tried installing the flash-aid plugin and also manually tried to reinstall flash in different ways. According to firefox there is a flash-plugin installed and working, but all I see is a black rectangle.
[07:40] <railsraider> does turning swap off affects in any way a mysql server (downtime)?
[07:41] <bivo> if I use Flash-Aid to manage Flash in Firefox how do I remove Flash completely?
[07:42] <fidel> usually you shouldnt care about that in case you use flash-aid
[07:42] <fidel> as the flash-aid assistant-mode handles it already via a script
[07:43] <bivo> fidel well if flash is dead I don't want it being a security hole anymore since I rarely ever used it anyways
[07:43] <Kristof_D> my flash is dead too, but I want it back =(
[07:44] <fidel> bivo: oh then i misunderstood you
[07:44] <fidel> i expected you want it to work again
[07:44] <bivo> Kristof_D keep after sites to move to HTML5
[07:44] <Kristof_D> I will ^^
[07:44] <fidel> bivo: in case you really want to get rid of it - just use apt or your favorite package-manager-gui as i.e. synaptic and remove it
[07:46] <Oxygen02> Hello everyone. Installed gnome-shell on ubuntu 11.10 The top bar seems to be glitching. Any solution to this?
[07:47] <curiousx> Oxygen02: do you have an ATI graphic card?
[07:47] <fidel> Oxygen02: can you describe 'glitching' a bit more detailed? examples?
[07:47] <dr_willis> whats your video card
[07:47] <Oxygen02> curiousx: yes
[07:47] <Oxygen02> fidel: the letters aren't rendering well..
[07:48] <curiousx> yo should install lastest driver 12.3 or 12.2 to solve that issue
[07:48] <dr_willis> fglrx and gnome shell has known issues.
[07:48] <Oxygen02> on the topbar. It has another color. Nothing works well.
[07:48] <Oxygen02> curiousx: latest drivers? how?
[07:48] <curiousx> what is the ati version?
[07:48] <sasori_> hi
[07:49] <Oxygen02> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV730 PRO [Radeon HD 4650]
[07:49] <sasori_> what command to execute in order to rename all the .txt files into .dat in just one blow ?
[07:49] <dharma> Is there any "howto" for newbies aout there?
[07:49] <curiousx> ok
[07:49] <dr_willis> sasori_: i think   rename   can do that
[07:50] <dr_willis> !manual
[07:50] <bivo> fidel ah, I figured it'd be installed somewhere funky or at least not listed in apt
[07:51] <curiousx> Oxygen02: i am searching for 12.3 i have 12.2 give me a second
[07:51] <Oxygen02> sasori_: for f in *.txt ; do mv $f.dat; done;
[07:51] <Oxygen02> curiousx: thanks!. I'll wait
[07:52] <curiousx> Oxygen02: wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/amd-driver-installer-12-3-x86.x86_64.run
[07:52] <curiousx> chmod +x amd-driver-installer-12-3-x86.x86_64.run
[07:52] <curiousx> no
[07:53] <curiousx> ok, when you downloaded it write me
[07:53] <sasori_> Oxygen02: is that a bash script?
[07:55] <sneumann> Hi, when upgrading from 10.04 to 12.04, I was asked by evolution to migrate from maildir from mbox format. I couldn't complete this, so I'd like to trigger the migration manually now. How to do that ?
[07:56] <zara> hello
[07:56] <Oxygen02> curiousx: there I'm again. Lost the terminal :)
[07:57] <curiousx> do you have the driver?
[07:57] <Oxygen02> yes
[07:57] <Oxygen02> they are installed
[07:57] <curiousx> Oxygen02: i mean propietary "catalyst" 12.3 ?
[07:57] <iceroot> Oxygen02: that will rename foo.txt to foo.txt.dat
[07:58] <curiousx> Oxygen02: wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/amd-driver-installer-12-3-x86.x86_64.run
[08:00] <Oxygen02> curiousx: got 2 options
[08:01] <Oxygen02> Install Driver 8.951 on X.org 6.9 or later 64-bit
[08:01] <Oxygen02> Generate distribution Specific Driver Package
[08:01] <Oxygen02> ?
[08:03] <curiousx> wait a second, canel it and we will do it manualy not by runing the .run
[08:03] <curiousx> if you want
[08:04] <curiousx> or as you like, but i have installed manually and everything goes good
[08:05] <Oxygen02> I removed the previous driver
[08:06] <curiousx> Oxygen02: what version do you have? Oneric?
[08:10] <progre55> hi guys. I have my /home partition encrypted, and I've recently started having problems with logon. It doesnt mount the home partition automatically, and I have to mount it manually from the tty. Any suggestions or anyone else having these issues, please?
[08:13] <paulus68> what is a good way to block msn yahoo chat and also the gmail and facebook messengers in squid?
[08:14] <marasy> hi, what determines the letter for device?  ie /dev/sda
[08:21] <muelli> marasy: well. I think udev handles that. And IIRC it is common that they are sequential.

[08:41] <Crazydan> And it would be funny as f*** to be able to run wine on an android phone
[08:41] <JelloPop> Crazydan: lol
[08:42] <JelloPop> Crazydan: Give it a couple more yrs its close...lol
[08:43] <foobArrr> does wine work on not-x86 systems?
[08:43] <Crazydan> Well i just installed jaunty on my phone
[08:43] <Crazydan> And was able to apt-get
[08:44] <Crazydan> Now I'm wondering what packages to install
[08:44] <JelloPop> Crazydan: most people use it for irc channels.. and feeds...
[08:45] <Crazydan> Wow I want to use it for pentesting
[08:45] <Crazydan> Well*
[08:45] <Crazydan> Apt-get install nmap
[08:45] <JelloPop> Crazydan: what?? are u trying to hack a network :(
[08:46] <Crazydan> Nmap works
[08:46] <Crazydan> XD
[08:46] <JelloPop> Crazydan: I dont want here u can hack a wap or wep ...lol
[08:47] <Crazydan> Well i am homeless and open wifi is hard to find
[08:47] <Crazydan> Don't know how to hack wap
[08:48] <Crazydan> But wep is easy with linux
[08:48] <JelloPop> Crazydan: Not so hard was once homeless in DC... Just have to get online and look for hot spot maps that tell u were all the unsecure networks are ..
[08:49] <Crazydan> Wonder if i can run a css server on my phone
[08:49] <ikonia> nothing to do with ubuntu
[08:49] <Crazydan> Im in a more rural area
[08:49] <ikonia> please stop discussion
[08:50] <Crazydan> Back to ubuntu
[08:50] <JelloPop> Crazydan: Good luck... Srry to hear ur without a home :(
[08:50] <Crazydan> So i did apt-get update and it had an error on the last 3 addresses
[08:51] <Crazydan> I just installed jaunty on my phone so i don't know if it was a server issue or my phone
[08:52] <ikonia> Crazydan: you've installed jaunty on your phone.....really
[08:52] <Crazydan> Yes.
[08:52] <ikonia> Crazydan: what phone have you installed it on ?
[08:52] <Crazydan> Htc hero
[08:52] <fidel> Crazydan: how battery usage?
[08:53] <ikonia> Crazydan: are you running on that phone now (are you irc'ing from it?)
[08:53] <fidel> i assume its pretty bad - but thats just a feeling
[08:53] <Crazydan> Not sure yet so far I've had it only plugged in
[08:53] <Crazydan> Yes im on the phone now
[08:53] <ikonia> Crazydan: really, shows you as running android
[08:54] <ikonia> rather than ubuntu
[08:54] <Crazydan> So far all ive been able to use was command line
[08:54] <Crazydan> Ya i know
[08:54] <ikonia> Crazydan: odd that an "ubuntu" install would show it's self as "android" almost as if you are not telling the truth
[08:54] <Crazydan> Its being virtualized over android
[08:55] <ikonia> oooh it's been virtualised now....what virtualisation tehcnology are you using
[08:55] <Crazydan> :/
[08:55] <ikonia> Crazydan: what virtualisation are you using ?
[08:55] <Crazydan> Google install ubuntu on android then come back before you mock
[08:55] <ikonia> Crazydan: I'm not mocking
[08:55] <ikonia> Crazydan: I'm asking what virtualisation you are using
[08:56] <Crazydan> Chroot
[08:56] <ikonia> Crazydan: I've never heard of google putting android on old HTC phones
[08:56] <Crazydan> I think
[08:56] <ikonia> you think ?
[08:56] <ikonia> you did it,
[08:56] <ikonia> are you sure you're not making this up...in which case, please stop messing around/wasting time
[08:56] <Crazydan> Ya it was mostly an app that did it
[08:56] <ikonia> Crazydan: an app did it now.
[08:56] <Crazydan> :(
[08:57] <ikonia> Crazydan: so it's gone from "ubuntu on a phone" to "virtualalised" to "chroot - an app did it"
[08:57] <Crazydan> Quit trying to troll
[08:57] <Olfway> Jesus, and I thought #freenode had a lot of nicks
[08:57] <ikonia> Crazydan: http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/android sure your not just reading that
[08:58] <Crazydan> Brb screenshot...
[08:58] <Crazydan> What package do you want me to install for the pic?
[08:58] <ikonia> none
[08:58] <ikonia> I'm not really bothered.
[08:59] <Crazydan> I was trying to get real help
[08:59] <Crazydan> For ubuntu
[08:59] <ikonia> Crazydan: ok, so what do you need help with ?
[08:59] <ikonia> how can we help
[08:59] <Crazydan> Im kinda a linux noob :/
[08:59] <ikonia> Crazydan: ok - what help do you need
[08:59] <Crazydan> I was wondering if i can get a gui somehow
[09:00] <ikonia> Crazydan: you've not got a gui running
[09:00] <Crazydan> Is There a package I need to install or something
[09:00] <ikonia> Crazydan: how did you install this ubuntu on your android phone
[09:00] <JelloPop> Crazydan: try veetle.com yet watched Hunger Games on this site need a fast interent connection...
[09:00] <Crazydan> An app on the android market
[09:00] <ikonia> Crazydan: what is the app called
[09:01] <Crazydan> Linux installer...
[09:01] <JelloPop> ikonia: sure there is a youtube video on installing ubuntu on phone
[09:01] <Olfway> Why did you do that? Andriod is already linux based...
[09:01] <ikonia> JelloPop: I'm not saying there isn't, I'm trying to understand what he's actually got running
[09:02] <Crazydan> It's missing most linux commands
[09:02] <ikonia> Crazydan: I suggest you take that up with the android application owner
[09:02] <Crazydan> So far I can only run things in terminal
[09:02] <ikonia> Crazydan: that won't be a proper ubuntu install
[09:02] <ikonia> Crazydan: the android application creator will need to support that
[09:02] <Crazydan> But no the app did all the work already now I have lenox installed and basically whatever you been f***** do 1 computer I can do my phone I'm tryna figure out how to do it though
[09:02] <ikonia> Crazydan: stop with the language
[09:03] <Crazydan> *** is bad toi?
[09:03] <ikonia> Crazydan: if it's missing commmands and running in a chroot, and installed by an android app - contact the person who made the android installer
[09:03] <ikonia> Crazydan: yes, it is
[09:03] <Crazydan> I was talking to the other dude when I said android is missing linix command but now that I have lenox installed there are all the commands at my fingertips
[09:04] <ikonia> Crazydan: whact exactly do you want to know ?
[09:04] <JelloPop> Crazydan: question is can it run fluxbox or some low res.. windows manager..
[09:04] <ikonia> Crazydan: I'm still waiting for an ubuntu support question from you
[09:07] <mister2> can someone fix this for me? DISPLAY=:0 gnome-screensaver-command -l
[09:07] <mister2> oooohhh wait, forgot the equals, nvm
[09:07] <zvacet> Crazydan: If you want to install ubuntu why don't you try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appbuilder.u14410p30729&feature=also_installed#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEwNCwiY29tLmFwcGJ1aWxkZXIudTE0NDEwcDMwNzI5Il0.

[09:28] <Kartagis> !source
[09:28] <myhero> m running ubuntu oneiric frm usb
[09:28] <myhero> 1min brb

[09:29] <Kartagis> myhero: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware
[09:30] <JelloPop> Crazydan: Found ur app Linux Installer at this point they have no Graphical USer Interface in is on there to do list...
[09:31] <Crazydan> Just installed irssi :o
[09:31] <JelloPop> Crazydan: http://android.galoula.com/en/LinuxInstall/#Reqs  there it is look at the installtion notes...
[09:33] <JelloPop> Crazydan: We will be running Ubuntu “chrooted” under Android OS, which just means that we will be running a “virtual” Ubuntu OS that runs on top of the Android OS.  Your Android OS will work fully (e.g. your phone will keep working normally) while the Ubuntu runs on top of it.
[09:33] <Crazydan> Yes i read that
[09:34] <JelloPop> if all u user are blowen away by this pls...  http://androlinux.com/android-ubuntu-development/how-to-install-ubuntu-on-android/
[09:35] <fidel> i am still interested in the power-usage of such a setup
[09:35] <fidel> as droid-devices usually tend to s*** already - and i cant imagine ubuntu is that much better on the same hardware
[09:36] <JelloPop> How to Install LXDE!(optional)
[09:36] <JelloPop> Next, we will install LXDE (Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment).  Although we can use Ubuntu’s default GNOME (and trust me I love that), LXDE takes up less memory so our GUI access will be faster.
[09:36] <JelloPop> If you like GNOME, you can skip this step though.
[09:36] <ikonia> fidel: no need for the language
[09:36] <fidel> ikonia: sorry
[09:36] <zvacet> Kartagis:  you can add PPA like this one https://launchpad.net/~videolan/+archive/master-daily

[09:41] <vandan> Hi all
[09:41] <vandan> i tried loggin into ubuntu-helpteam
[09:41] <vandan> and kernel
[09:41] <vandan> but no help was provided
[09:41] <vandan> can someone help me here please.
[09:42] <vandan> thank you
[09:42] <JelloPop> vandan: whats the question
[09:42] <vandan> thank you jellpop
[09:42] <myhero> thnx but still i don't know what 2 do with the linux softs downloaded frm the original sites
[09:42] <vandan> I installed ubuntu 11.10
[09:42] <vandan> from a CD
[09:42] <vandan> and my ubuntu is freezes
[09:42] <vandan> sometimes.
[09:43] <vandan> many times on firefox
[09:43] <scottj> is there a cli for the "Enable Networking" feature on right clicking nm-applet
[09:43] <vandan> and sometimes using librewriter
[09:43] <JelloPop> vandan: install htop
[09:43] <myhero> the problem is m running oneiric frm usb n whenever i boot everything is lost n i hve 2 install all again.....
[09:43] <Myrtti> vandan: you can use the comma key on your keyboard instead of the enter key - it makes your question a lot more readable
[09:43] <myhero> so if i update frm net then it consumes bandwidth
[09:44] <Crazydan> now what os does it say i am running?
[09:44] <JelloPop> vandan: Can follow, no need for comma's and correct grammer... I got skillz
[09:44] <myhero> therefore i downloaded the softs linus packages frm original sites n want a way 2 install them whenever i boot
[09:44] <myhero> *linux
[09:45] <Crazydan> i'm still on my phone :p
[09:45] <vandan> thanks mrtti . I did an update of ubuntu, after update, it started to freeze / crash more often. so i installed again from CD
[09:45] <myhero> all softs r in tar.gz n tar.xz format
[09:45] <JelloPop> Crazydan learn to read all the instructions :) before u get here and complain
[09:46] <Crazydan> running irssi atm :p
[09:46] <Crazydan> not complaining
[09:46] <vandan> and it freezes sometimes but not often. what could be the possible cause ?
[09:46] <JelloPop> Crazydan: U install lxde, a
[09:47] <Crazydan> lxde?
[09:47] <Crazydan> this is why i'm here
[09:47] <JelloPop> Crazydan: Gui for fone lxde
[09:47] <Crazydan> i'm a noob
[09:47] <Crazydan> gui? xD
[09:48] <zvacet> !persistent
[09:48] <fidel> vandan: just mentioning that it "freezes" from time to time makes it hard to "guess" what the reason might be
[09:48] <fidel> consider checking your logs or ssh in in the case it freezes if that is still possible
[09:49] <JelloPop> Crazydan: Directions say u may need to use busybox to install and run updates..
[09:49] <zvacet> myhero: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[09:49] <Crazydan> surprised this even runs on my dinosaur fone
[09:49] <vandan> yes,i understand. I could move the cursor but nothing works. i have to reboot .
[09:49] <myhero> @zvacet k...
[09:49] <Crazydan> did the busybox thing
[09:49] <JelloPop> Crazydan: fetch errors go away?
[09:50] <vandan> fidel, where can i see the logs ? i saw some logs in var/log folder
[09:50] <vandan> which one shall i check ?
[09:50] <Crazydan> now i just need to get all my base packages
[09:50] <vandan> sorry, i am not an expert on ubuntu/linux.
[09:50] <Crazydan> i just don't know what
[09:50] <Crazydan> ya no more errors
[09:50] <JelloPop> Crazydan: what are u trying to do?

For example:  find x    then at the next prompt i want to use x, say for example echo x, but I don't want to use the standard output that just was output without piping it on the same line???
[10:13] <Marcellina> like cat x | grep y

[10:33] <Ederico> hello all, I have a "problem" with Firefox 11 under Ubuntu 12.04 (I installed the beta yesterday). Basically, when I close firefox all my tabs reload when I reload firefox again, however under my previous setup (running Ubuntu 10.10) only the tab which was selected loaded on Firefox's startup. Basically, I want that back and can't find the setting in Firefox (if there is any).
[10:33] <ikonia> paulus68: squid is only set up for your web proxy, so if (for example) msn is not set to use a proxy then it won't use squid and you'd have to block the port say with iptables
[10:34] <paulus68> ikonia: ok thanks

[10:35] <ikonia> mi3: no
[10:35] <jonathon> pawan_tejwani, You should have an option in the BIOS to have Wireless enable itself by default, check in there for wireless settings, if you can't find it, comeback
[10:35] <ikonia> mi3: just delete the file and install the package
[10:36] <mi3> how can I install that file if I have deleted it? ikonia?
[10:36] <Sidewinder> !12.04 | Ederico
