[04:40] <gpm> i have an m-audio transit that works fine when i select OSS in the sound prefs, but not with alsa. the other problem is that even when it's working in oss, when i try to play anything with totem-xine no sound comes out, it does in mplayer if i tell it to use oss, and rhythmbox even, but not totem-xine. any clues on either of these issues would be greatly appreciated

[04:40] <Ladaubilis> Hello, I am trying to install ubuntu over windows 7 using unetbootin and a usb external hard disk drive, i am having no luck other then being able to do wubi. Any help is greatly appreciated
[04:41] <deviant-route> @ thomas it kind of make life easy for new users :)
[04:41] <thomas_> @Ladaubilis can you just use a live cd?
[04:41] <sebsebseb> iPeter-: so I get the thanks
[04:41] <Ladaubilis> thomas_ net book :(
[04:41] <thomas_> @deviant-route but that takes the fun out of learning
[04:41] <redwolf> hey, I cannot play DVDs in ubuntu
[04:41] <deviant-route> yes your right :)
[04:41] <sebsebseb> !medibuntu |  redwolf
[04:41] <stlsaint> redwolf, what are you using to try and play
[04:42] <redwolf> ubottu, stlsaint: I installed the super-secret libcss library
[04:42] <sebsebseb> redwolf: you need to install something before commercial DVD's will play
[04:42] <thomas_> @Ladaubilis do you have the option to boot from device when starting up?
[04:42] <redwolf> sebsebseb: done
[04:42] <redwolf> stlsaint: trying to play with totem
[04:42] <stlsaint> sebsebseb, he may need directions on how to add to repo list
[04:42] <redwolf> stlsaint: says I may not have permission to open the disk
[04:42] <burf> how do i compile this correctly - gcc -o sixpair sixpair.c -lusb i have the sixpair.c file stored in home/burf/sixaxis/sixpair.c   ? thx
[04:42] <sebsebseb> stlsaint: you can do that if you want
[04:42] <burf> i get no file or directory found
[04:42] <stlsaint> what distro you on
[04:42] <redwolf> stlsaint: jaunty
[04:42] <Ladaubilis> thomas_ yes but it is missing bootmgr after using netbootin to make the live cd installable from usb
[04:43] <CaptainCrook> anyone know a good hunting/fishing game for linux ?
[04:43] <Ladaubilis> thomas_ i used a flash stick before and it worked but this time i have a harddrive
[04:43] <sebsebseb> !ot |  CaptainCrook
[04:43] <stlsaint> redwolf, try Movie Player from synap
[04:43] <sebsebseb> CaptainCrook: well  it's basically off topic, but  also  kind of on topic
[04:43] <callum_> hi people how do you format a SD Card to fat/fat 32 onn ubuntu 9.04 please
[04:43] <callum_> is there a way
[04:43] <burf> CaptainCrook: deer hunter
[04:44] <stlsaint> redwolf, a rented movie or personal...
[04:44] <redwolf> stlsaint: personal
[04:44] <sebsebseb> redwolf: I guess it in on topic actsaulley
[04:44] <burf> sebsebseb: how do i compile the file i just mentioned?
[04:44] <sebsebseb> burf: don't know
[04:44] <burf> ok
[04:44] <stlsaint> burf, do you have build essentials installed
[04:45] <tofix> CyberKitsune_, which windows manager do you use ?
[04:45] <callum_> !SD callum
[04:45] <stlsaint> redwolf, are you willing to remove protection?
[04:45] <callum_> so no one here knows howto: format a sd card on ubuntu?
[04:45] <callum_> a bit sad much
[04:45] <burf> is gcc already installed?
[04:45] <stlsaint> callum, can you mount the card?
[04:45] <redwolf> stlsaint: I can, I'd like it to play in normal dvd players though, and I've got a bunch of commercial dvds I'd like to watch too
[04:45] <burf> stlsaint: dunno - how can i check
[04:45] <aprilhare> i am having problems upgrading to karmic. am i at the right place to ask for help?
[04:45] <tofix> CyberKitsune_, try to modify your driver in "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" change your actual to "vesa" and restart "gdm"
[04:46] <callum_> the card is on yes
[04:46] <stlsaint> burf, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:46] <brassmaster> aprilhare: #ubuntu+1
[04:46] <JamesB192> burf insufficient data, but I'd try specifying the relative path of the file as the next to last argument. (assuming it's not int the pwd)
[04:46] <burf> thx man
[04:46] <aprilhare> thanks brassmaster
[04:46] <gpm> i have an m-audio transit that works fine when i select OSS in the sound prefs, but not with alsa. the other problem is that even when it's working in oss, when i try to play anything with totem-xine no sound comes out, it does in mplayer if i tell it to use oss, and rhythmbox even, but not totem-xine. any clues on either of these issues would be greatly appreciated
[04:46] <panfist> what's a good game in the repos that could be a real world benchmark for my opengl performance?
[04:46] <redwolf> stlsaint: I'll see if the medibuntu librarys help out though
[04:46] <madley> Anyone, I am installing binutils for os161 . I want to downgrade gcc to v3.4 from v4.1 . Do I have to remove 4.1 and then install 3.4
[04:47] <thomas_> @ladaubilis have you tried this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[04:47] <brassmaster> panfist: you should get urbanterror
[04:47] <stlsaint> redwolf, try playing with vlc
[04:47] <panfist> that's not in the repos :(
[04:47] <stlsaint> redwolf, alright if not come back
[04:47] <CyberKitsune_> tofix: Oh, Sorry, I use KDE/KDM.
[04:47] <redwolf> stlsaint: did, says the same message actually
[04:48] <redwolf> stlsaint: I think it might be permissions issues with the drive
[04:48] <callum_> that just shows how crap this ubuntu is cant even do a simple task like FORMAT A SD CARD.
[04:48] <stlsaint> blu-ray dvd by chance?
[04:48] <burf> gcc -o sixaxis /home/burf/sixaxis/sixpair.c -lusb    -   JamesB192 ?
[04:48] <stlsaint> redwolf, in terminal type "groups" without quotes and see what you are added to
[04:48] <JamesB192> burf: yeah.
[04:49] <redwolf> sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2
[04:49] <redwolf> lol opps
[04:49] <burf> gcc -o sixaxis /home/burf/sixaxis/sixpair.c -lusb
[04:49] <tofix> CyberKitsune_, no matter : just handle /etc/X11/xorg.conf like i advice you, and check the difference , maybe reboot your computer then too.
[04:49] <redwolf> stlsaint: adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare
[04:49] <callum_> you know formatting a sd card isn't something that came out yesterday.

[04:49] <GuidMorrow> does anyone know which packages work well for video editing -- packages that work with recording from your video capture card, then editing movies, and burning DVD-Video discs?
[04:50] <gpm> GuidMorrow: kino
[04:50] <stlsaint> well than you shouldnt have any permission issues with your drive
[04:50] <redwolf> stlsaint: I can read files on the drive just fine, like I can read from and write to discs fine
[04:50] <swiftarrow> \join #ubuntustudio
[04:50] <redwolf> stlsaint: lemme try another DVD
[04:51] <JamesB192> burf: you're sure it's there.
[04:51] <madley> Anyone knows if we have to remove the existing gcc before installing a downgraded version??
[04:51] <CyberKitsune_> tofix: I don't see an actual in xorg.conf
[04:52] <callum_> HOWTO: FORMAT SD CARD USING THIS PILE OF CRAP PLEASE.
[04:52] <callum_> Like now.
[04:52] <thomas_> @madley  probably a good idea in case dependencies change
[04:52] <MindSpark> hello, my cpu scaling applet shows options: conservative, ondemand, performance and powersave. However I can only chose powersave and performance
[04:52] <GuidMorrow> !caps | callum_
[04:52] <GuidMorrow> btw, does Ubuntu even see my capture card?
[04:52] <MindSpark> any idea why the ondemand is not working ?
[04:52] <callum_> GuidMorrow GTFOVER IT.
[04:52] <brassmaster> dude callum, GTFO.
[04:52] <callum_> Ok thanks x
[04:52] <brassmaster> callum_: nobody likes douchebags.
[04:52] <bostux> gl callum_
[04:53] <redwolf> stlsaint: ha, interesting it works now...for both the disc I was trying and the old one
[04:53] <GuidMorrow> !language > brassmaster
[04:53] <callum_> Nobody likes Ubuntu a pile of crap OS thats underbuilt and cant do aa simple task as to format a sd card
[04:53] <stlsaint> redwolf, well there you go...happy buntuin
[04:53] <redwolf> stlsaint: thanks!
[04:53] <callum_> Thats why there is such things as windows that actually work and do tasks.
[04:53] <brassmaster> callum_: it can and i know how
[04:53] <GuidMorrow> lol windows user
[04:53] <madley> thomas, Is there any way to keep 2 versions of gcc and temporarily change the default one
[04:53] <MindSpark> callum_, then why are you in here ?
[04:53] <stlsaint> callum_, ubuntu can format the card...its U that cant
[04:53] <brassmaster> callum_: but i don't really want to help you now.
[04:53] <JamesB192> callum_: write protect tab?
[04:54] <callum_> because i have ubuntu
[04:54] <gpm> hi guys. two problems: first my card only works with oss, not alsa. second, totem-xine plays video, but no sound comes out. it comes out in xine-ui when i tell that to use oss and in rhythmbox when i tell gstreamer to use oss, but there's no such option in totem-xine and even after setting both those to use oss no sound comes out. any clues on either problem would be greatly appreciated. sound card is an m-audio transit.
[04:54] <callum_> duh
[04:54] <Ladaubilis> Can i install from wubi then delete windows?
[04:54] <MindSpark> callum_, is it because you cannot afford windose ?
[04:54] <tofix> CyberKitsune_, check for Driver "something" in "Section "Device" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf , and replace "Something" by vesa , /etc/init.d/kdm restart, if it works reboot your computer, wait a while a check swap usage .
[04:54] <DasEi> Ladaubilis: no
[04:54] <callum_> i have windows 7 and vista but not at home atm
[04:54] <callum_> this is a netbook
[04:54] <bostux> callum_: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=format+sd+card+ubuntu
[04:54] <george> gpm try rebuilding asla
[04:54] <GuidMorrow> not likely, if you delete windows, it will destroy your link to Ubuntu
[04:54] <callum_> windos 7 RC EVALUATION
[04:54] <brassmaster> callum_: oh no, you should use windows. it's sooooooo much better on crappy netbook hardware.
[04:55] <burf> oh its there
[04:55] <Ladaubilis> no windows makes me sick
[04:55]  * brassmaster throws up his dinner.
[04:55] <CyberKitsune_> tofix: My xorg.conf looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/263556/ I don't see a Driver "Something" :(
[04:55] <george> windows died for me the last virus i got, i just said screw it, and ive never looked back
[04:55] <callum_> brassmaster windows 7 has a 4.1 rating on my netbook with 2gb ram 1.8ghz processor and its made for netbooks and woorks without drivers
[04:55] <thomas_> @madley dependencies will cause you to add/remove one version unless compliling from source
[04:55] <MindSpark> btw, I have to say on my eee, windows does a really good job at powersaving, battery lasts 10h while ubuntu only gives me sth like 7h
[04:55] <burf> in a folder called Sixaxis inside the same folder as desktop, documents etc..
[04:55] <callum_> unlike vista
[04:55] <gpm> george: to what end?
[04:55] <DasEi> Ladaubilis: so install ubu and run dualboot or win-vm, if your specs can do it
[04:56] <brassmaster> callum_: pretty sure we can safely blame that on device manufacturers refusing to share their acpi magic with linux.
[04:56] <Ladaubilis> i dont want any windows on my box
[04:56] <splint> guys, what use is it in the end of upgrading all the time?
[04:56] <george> gpm: do you have any sound at all?
[04:56] <madley> thomas, thanks
[04:56] <thomas_> @Ladaubilis did you try the link?
[04:56] <burf> driving me nuts, why you cant just right clikc and compile.. on a .c file
[04:56] <callum_> ummm no offence but linux sucks.
[04:56] <splint> why?
[04:56] <stlsaint> callum_, enough with the dumb stuff are you ready to try and fix your issue?
[04:56] <MindSpark> burf, you could actually configure that
[04:56] <DasEi> !who | Ladaubilis
[04:56] <Ladaubilis> thomas_ that was my original try but when i boot from usb it says no BOOTMGR found
[04:57] <gpm> george: yes, the sound works when i select alsa in the gnome-audio prefs
[04:57] <GuidMorrow> wait I realized something:
[04:57] <GuidMorrow> isn't KINO for DV cameras and camcorders?
[04:57] <gpm> george: and when i tell mplayer/xine-ui to use oss as the audio output driver
[04:57] <callum_> wow you have to download and burn gnome partiooner to format a sd card
[04:57] <callum_> lmao what a  joke
[04:57] <MindSpark> ok, I forgot about my own issue now
[04:57] <RedSocrates> callum_: Why are you here?
[04:57] <MindSpark> my cpu scaling applet shows options: conservative, ondemand, performance and powersave. However I can only chose powersave and performance
[04:57] <brassmaster> no,
[04:57] <brassmaster>  you don't.
[04:57] <MindSpark> any idea why the ondemand is not working ?
[04:57] <stlsaint> callum_, you dont have to? what are you looking at?
[04:57] <thomas_> @Ladaubilis what OS is currently installed?
[04:57] <GuidMorrow> !op
[04:57] <brassmaster> callum_
[04:57] <potwak> how to use 7-zip?
[04:57] <Ladaubilis> calluim_: i think this is a support channel and negitive comments probably are not very welcome
[04:57] <brassmaster> callum_: you need to use gparted!
[04:58]  * DBO looks at GuidMorrow
[04:58] <swiftarrow> callum_ just do it.  Take the time to explore gparted.  Compare it to the dinky right-click - format in windows.
[04:58] <JamesB192> callum_: I suppose you could do better with no budget.
[04:58] <brassmaster> !gparted
[04:58] <george> mindspark: your cpu might not support it
[04:58] <stlsaint> callum_, its easy to try and format...if you quit complaining i will help
[04:58] <Ladaubilis> thomas_ win7
[04:58] <bazhang> GuidMorrow, what's up
[04:58] <DasEi> callum_: sudo apt-get install gparted
[04:58] <MindSpark> george, it does, I've used it before, not working since the upgrade this morning
[04:58] <brassmaster> callum_: better yet, just go install windows. in about 4 hours, you can format that card.
[04:58] <MindSpark> I installed powernowd, but I am guessing gnome has its own governor ?
[04:58] <burf> YAY
[04:58] <swiftarrow> callum_, gparted is like, less than a megabyte.
[04:59] <george> mindspark: thats really odd
[04:59] <GuidMorrow> look at the flame war, for some reason this guy doesn't know how to format a SD card in ubuntu
[04:59] <brassmaster> callum_: and, it's like, PREINSTALLED!
[04:59] <callum_> shut it
[04:59] <callum_> you jerk
[04:59] <george> lol
[04:59] <MindSpark> george, it is... :S
[04:59] <DasEi>  Ladaubilis : need help in installing ?
[04:59] <DasEi> !install
[04:59] <swiftarrow> brassmaster, I haven't found it preinstalled... except on the live cd
[04:59] <burf> i did a dir in the terminal and by default im in my user folder already, pus the sixaxis should have been Sixaxis - its comnpiled now
[04:59] <bazhang> callum_, please be civil, GuidMorrow don't be so fast on the trigger
[04:59] <callum_> ok
[04:59] <brassmaster> callum_: perhaps you should be more grateful when you enter a room seeking help.
[04:59] <jrivera> how do you add a new raid disk on an ubuntu server with existing raid disk
[05:00] <Ladaubilis> DasEi: Yes, here is my situation...
[05:00] <dody_keren> z
[05:00] <arooni-mobile___> is 12GB big enough for a /root/ partition?  for ubuntu jaunty?
[05:00] <dody_keren> oh no
[05:00] <swiftarrow> callum_ have you gotten gparted yet?  it has many more features than the windows format option.
[05:00] <dody_keren> yes maybe
[05:00] <dody_keren> gaplek
[05:00] <dody_keren> gatel
[05:00] <FloodBot2> dody_keren: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:00] <callum_> yes it installed
[05:00] <stlsaint> brassmaster,
[05:00] <stlsaint> isnt there a way to do it without gparted?
[05:00] <bazhang> dody_keren, please stop that
[05:00] <potwak> DasEi: do you know how to use 7-zip in downloading files?
[05:00] <george> arooni-mobile___: plenty big
[05:00] <stlsaint> arooni-mobile___, try closer to 15 just to be on safe side of things
[05:00] <DBO> arooni-mobile___, more or less, how much space do you have available?
[05:00] <swiftarrow> arooni-mobile___, depends on what type of software you are going to install later on.
[05:00] <brassmaster> stlsaint: yes, but that i would have to look up.
[05:00] <arooni-mobile___> DBO, not sure;  going to reinstall oS
[05:00] <JamesB192> yes, there is a way to format device w/o gparted.
[05:00] <GuidMorrow> ?
[05:01] <dody_keren> sorry
[05:01] <Ladaubilis> DasEi: currently windows 7, no cd drive, no usb thumb drive, i have a usb harddrive but when i bpoot from that i get no bootmgr... ubuntu is on the usb hd using unetbootin
[05:01] <DasEi> potwak: me being lazy installed unp, doing lots of formats
[05:01] <GuidMorrow> can you even format a flash memory chip by any "normal" means?
[05:01] <stlsaint> brassmaster, just asking as i would like to try it out as i think i may have a way without installing gparted...
[05:01] <DasEi> !info unp
[05:01] <jrivera> how do you add a new raid disk on an ubuntu server with existing raid disk
[05:01] <burf> Current Bluetooth master: 00:1d:ba:52:54:31 Unable to retrieve local bd_addr from `hcitool dev`. Please enable Bluetooth or specify an address manually. - great more problems
[05:01] <george> idk, i have full jaunty running on my 16gb ssd netbook and im fine
[05:01] <MindSpark> anybody ?
[05:01] <DBO> arooni-mobile___, can you describe your situation in full so i can give you an accurate recommendation (if you wish to have a minimalistic in size ubuntu install, just tell me :)
[05:01] <stlsaint> brassmaster, plus i have seen a couple issues with using gparted for sd cards...not questioning your knowledge...just looking at all options
[05:01] <callum_> i installed g-parted but its not in the menu do i need to add it to menu
[05:01] <Brandon> !compiz brandon
[05:01] <arooni-mobile___> DBO, desktop computer that i want to use as main pc + a bunch of software development
[05:02] <DasEi> potwak : saw unp ?
[05:02] <Brandon> !compiz > brandon
[05:02] <DBO> arooni-mobile___, dual boot? how much hard drive space in total?
[05:02] <stlsaint> !compiz > brandon
[05:02] <swiftarrow> callum_, its under System>Administration>Partition Editor
[05:02] <brassmaster> stlsaint: callum_: is the sd card empty or does it need clearing as well?
[05:02] <arooni-mobile___> DBO, not dual boot; but want to install vm.  320GB of hard drive
[05:02] <george> callum_: its under administration --> partition editor
[05:02] <swiftarrow> that's one thing I don't like about Jaunty: instead of calling it Gparted, it's called Partition editor... but only in the menu
[05:02] <GuidMorrow> now as I was saying, isn't KINO for DV camcorders?
[05:02] <stlsaint> arooni-mobile___, what are you using as vm client
[05:03] <Miodrag> hi, I recently bought an Acer mini laptop [WinXP] that have hidden silent installation partition which can be trigered with hotkey during bios post screen. I found this concept very interesting and wondered to replicate it with Ubuntu on desktop machine - instead of bios hotkey i will use usb flash with boot loader. Question is what hidden partition file system should be and how to convert...
[05:03] <thomas_> @Ladaubilis do you have a recovery partition?
[05:03] <Miodrag> ...ISO file to an such "partition installation" way?
[05:03] <arooni-mobile___> stlsaint, virtualbox
[05:03] <DBO> arooni-mobile___, 25GB / (for apps and some growing room), the rest into /home and swap
[05:03] <stlsaint> arooni-mobile___, what version
[05:03] <Ladaubilis> thomas_ i have a spare hd in my computer current as an archive
[05:03] <DBO> arooni-mobile___, with a dev box you will end up with quite a lot of dev header files and random stuff installed into /, so having 25GB there is a good idea
[05:03] <swiftarrow> Miodrag, there is a way to install ubuntu from the ISO image, by adding it to grub.  Try searching for that ("Install from iso without burning cd")
[05:03] <arooni-mobile___> stlsaint, whatever is on their site; latest de
[05:03] <arooni-mobile___> deb
[05:04] <arooni-mobile___> DBO, thanks for the reccomendation
[05:04] <DasEi>  Ladaubilis : I see, then you could mount the ubu-iso in windows, install to the usb-hd and then boot it, make sure grub installs to usb, then can install on internal same way afterwards
[05:04] <stlsaint> arooni-mobile___, are you using repos or off archive
[05:04] <arooni-mobile___> is it TRUE that after i set up my partitions for RAID1 that i CANNOT resize partitions later?
[05:04] <callum_> ok now my sd card has 1.9GB un-allocated space
[05:04] <Miodrag> swiftarrow: thanks very much
[05:04] <thomas_> @Ladaubilis the point was to see if you can start up in recovery mode and go to the windows installer to install a bootmgr
[05:04] <callum_> do you need to create a partition on it now
[05:04] <stlsaint> swiftarrow, Miodrag you are referring to Grub2...correct?!
[05:04] <Phase> How do I make a specific program (specifically zenity) always remain "on top" of other applications (GNOME) ?
[05:04] <DBO> arooni-mobile___, you can but its a real pain in the rump
[05:05] <Phase> Nevermind
[05:05] <brassmaster> callum_: go to a terminal and do mkfs.vfat /dev/hd* where hd* is your device.
[05:05] <thomas_> anyone have any experience managing a ipod using floola or banshee?
[05:05] <DasEi> callum_: gparted > format to ( right click on unallocated)
[05:05] <Phase> Er, re-nevermind. It goes away after I close the dialog.
[05:05] <george> phase: right click the window title and check always on top
[05:05] <Ladaubilis> DasEi, So install wubi? to second HD, boot to it, format C: then reinstall ubuntu to C:?
[05:05] <arooni-mobile___>  DBO thats why i wanted to check first
[05:05] <arooni-mobile___> what are peoples thoughts on RAID 1
[05:05] <arooni-mobile___> via software
[05:05] <callum_> nvm its applying fat16
[05:05] <Phase> george, Yeah, but the option doesn't stick for when the next time a zenity dialog is opened.
[05:05] <stlsaint> thomas_, what version of ipod
[05:05] <cfedde> might want a lvm in there too if you realy think you want to grow a file system after it is up.
[05:05] <Ladaubilis> thomas_ the usbharddrive i was trying to install from is missing the bootmgr
[05:06] <DasEi>  Ladaubilis : no, you can run the installer cd in a virtual drive under windows
[05:06] <thomas_> 80GB classic
[05:06] <MindSpark> ok, let me rephrase: which cpu frequency governor does the "CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor 2.27.4" use for ondemand scaling ?
[05:06] <DBO> arooni-mobile___, unless you really need it.... I wouldnt bother...
[05:06] <CyberKitsune_> tofix: You still there?
[05:06] <swiftarrow> Miodrag, nice idea...
[05:06] <MindSpark> I've tried cpufreqd powernowd powersaved, and none seem to work
[05:06] <Ladaubilis> DasEi oh great lemme give that a shot, ill be back if i have issues !
[05:06] <DasEi>  Ladaubilis :google virtual clone drive
[05:07] <cfedde> arooni-mobile___: imho it's easier to do a disk shuffle when you need more space than to grow a file system.
[05:07] <swiftarrow> stlsaint, I'm not sure, just remember reading some tutorials a while back
[05:07] <stlsaint> swiftarrow, as i recall Grub2 is capable of booting from iso...are you running karmic
[05:07] <stlsaint> ?
[05:07] <swiftarrow> callum_ use fat32 from the right-click menu.  Otherwise you have problems with big files
[05:08] <GuidMorrow> can't get kino to start, doesn't see my capture card (it only works with dv cameras!)
[05:08] <burf> is there not a gui for joysticks in unubtu - anyone know?
[05:08] <crdlb> MindSpark: I'm not sure I understand the question; it just uses the kernel's 'ondemand' cpufreq governor
[05:08] <GuidMorrow> is there another video program that does work with capture cards
[05:08] <swiftarrow> stlsaint, no, so I guess it's Grub<2 ;)   Someone somewhere had posted a tutorial showing how to get grub to boot an iso image, long before grub2 i guess.
[05:08] <brassmaster> swiftarrow: callum_'s gone
[05:08] <brassmaster> at last.
[05:09] <Bluey> swift it was on hak5 awhile back
[05:09] <swiftarrow> brassmaster, ah, thanks
[05:09] <Miodrag> another thing i wanted to ask - since i will not need all ubuntu packages - its for terminal computer that uses php as an imput to mysql database and notting more - i wondered to make smaller installation of ubuntu - i readed some documentation and found bunch of remastering tools - if anyone have idea which one is the best - most sophisticated for use
[05:09] <Miodrag> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_remastering_software
[05:09] <swiftarrow> Miodrag, perhaps take a look at crunchbang
[05:09] <swiftarrow> crunchbang linux, an ubuntu derivative
[05:10] <arooni-mobile___> are defaults for partitions recommended at: ext3 / mount options (relatime) label: none ; reserved blocks 5% typical usage: standard ?
[05:10] <stlsaint> swiftarrow, ha testing crunchbang out in vm right now...has some nice qualities i must say
[05:10] <Miodrag> thx i will look into it right now
[05:10] <cfedde> arooni-mobile___: not much reason to change the defaults.
[05:11] <OmiKrOn> hi all, I have this problem with some ubuntu machines when logging in via native ssh client/putty. If i hit the directional keys or  pgup,pgdwn etc the behaviour is not as epxected.. anyway how to fix that?
[05:11] <stlsaint> Miodrag, be warned crunchbang out the box is all about business..not flashy programs or environments...you will have to do all that...but
[05:11] <stlsaint> Miodrag, if you want something small and efficient...crunchbang will work
[05:12] <Miodrag> stlsaint: yes i just need support for firefox and openoffice notting else
[05:12] <thomas_> how does crunchbag compare to xubuntu?
[05:12] <CyberKitsune_> Anyone: tofix said I need to change the driver of my "device" to "vesa" in xorg.conf, but he seems to be afk or gone, and my xorg.conf looks like: http://paste.ubuntu.com/263556/ and I don't see any driver.
[05:12] <Flannel> thomas_: You should ask that question in #ubuntu-offtopic, it's not really appropriate for this channel
[05:13] <stlsaint> well you could go even smaller than that...puppy or dsl will do...you may want to check these out first...head over to distro watch to get explanations on them
[05:14] <CyberKitsune_> can anyone help? :x
[05:14] <thiebaude> sebsebseb, everything is working great
[05:14] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: good, but did you put  on a graphics card driver again?
[05:14] <stlsaint> !floola > stlsaint
[05:15] <thiebaude> sebsebseb, i did a complete re-install of everything and then edited my xorg.conf
[05:15] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: uh of everything?  as in the whole of Ubuntu?
[05:15] <thiebaude> yep
[05:15] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: hmm
[05:15] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: well you didn't really need to do that I think
[05:16] <thiebaude> and then applied updates, and now i have to install flash, java video codecs
[05:16] <CyberKitsune_> !intel
[05:16] <thiebaude> sebsebseb, what happened last time was when i was half way through with updates, my mouse froze
[05:16] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[05:17] <thiebaude> oh, yea, im installing everything from synaptic
[05:17] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: ah ok
[05:17] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: well  that command will take care of  most of that stuff for you
[05:17] <deviant-route> .
[05:17] <deviant-route> Host 'deviant-route', running Linux 2.6.28-15-generic - Cpu0: Intel 1596 MHz; Up: 5:17; Users: 3; Load: 0.15; Free: [Mem: 89/2004 Mio] [Swap: 4103/4103 Mio] [/: 10497/14084 Mio] [/home: 52936/56997 Mio] [/media/BIGVIDEOS: 342563/715054 Mio]; Vpenis: 289.5 cm;
[05:17] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: and synaptic is so  slow, compared to  the shell
[05:17] <thiebaude> thanks again, oh i used nano earlier to edit in a non-gui and it didn't work before
[05:18] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: or terminal the other name  for it
[05:18] <thiebaude> yes
[05:18] <thiebaude> have ext4, its fast
[05:18] <kevdog> Is there an equivalent or something similar to vumeter? -- I uninstalled pulse audio
[05:18] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: yep  about 10 or 15 seconds boot up
[05:18] <scriptwarlock> how stable is ext4 now?
[05:18] <thiebaude> true
[05:19] <sebsebseb> scriptwarlock: I think the dataloss issues got fixed ages ago, there was someone in here with Ext4 on 9.04 the other day  with   the  delete big files and lock up issue
[05:19] <sebsebseb> scriptwarlock: 9.10 uses by default, but also has a proper kernel for it
[05:19] <sebsebseb> scriptwarlock: and yes 9.10 final will be out at the end of October
[05:19] <Dulak> not stable enough
[05:20] <scriptwarlock> no im waiting for the lts
[05:20] <thiebaude> sebsebseb, someone asked me earlier whats new in 9.10 and i gave him a list of whats new
[05:20] <scriptwarlock> could ext4 be the default of ext4?
[05:20] <scriptwarlock> im mean next lts
[05:20] <pepperphd> why do i have to have root privelages to updatedb? can i make it so i don't have to sudo updatedb?
[05:20] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: there are wiki pages
[05:20] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: for each alpha
[05:21] <thiebaude> scriptwarlock, yes
[05:21] <David1> I am running jaunty unr on my samsung nc10.  I cannot turn my wireless on and off.  How do I activate the function key (fn+F9)?
[05:21] <soreau> pepperphd: If you'd like you can add commands to be ran as root everytime you boot in /etc/rc.local
[05:21] <scriptwarlock> does anyone tried the nye key?
[05:21] <thiebaude> good nite everyone
[05:21] <scriptwarlock> n with a ~
[05:22] <burf> argh forget it
[05:22] <di||itante> pepperphd: see setuid
[05:22] <Dulak> pepperphd: you can edit the sudoers file and put a line that will let you run that command with sudo and no passwd
[05:22] <DasEi> scriptwarlock: I#m using it for half a year, even with hard treatments , like plug-out power offs no problems here
[05:23] <scriptwarlock> wahts the advantage when using it on regular laptops and desktop
[05:23] <pepperphd> thanks
[05:23] <Zylstra555> When I access my computer using Ubuntu's "built in" remote access, it tends to allow me to type my password in, enter the login screen, and it will display the desktop, but I can not click anything.
[05:24] <arooni-mobile___> while trying to install ubuntu to raid1 array i just set up i see : installation step failed "Select and install software"  .. any ideas on what happened and what to do next?
[05:24] <scriptwarlock> do i have to reformat my hard disk?
[05:25] <JamesB192> Zylstra555: sounds like the -viewonly of a vnc client I sometimes use.
[05:25] <DasEi> scriptwarlock: It has advanced journaling funciotns and supports bigger hd's, details : http://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/
[05:25] <Zylstra555> JamesB192: Nope, its something other than that. Viewonly is not selected.
[05:26] <scriptwarlock> ah ok so no big impact on lappy and desktops
[05:26] <nnull> Anyone know a program i can use with gimp thats like Illustrator? Eg i can create slices for web output in
[05:26] <Zylstra555> JamesB192: You know how your computer can lock itself when the screensaver comes on? After I enter the password there, I am unable to control it. Also, when the screen is not locked, and the desktop is open, I can usually select one thing before I am unable to click anything.
[05:26] <DasEi> scriptwarlock:you can change to ext 4, your old data will remain ext3, anything new will be written in 4 then
[05:26] <scriptwarlock>  reformating?
[05:26] <scriptwarlock> or no need
[05:27] <sebsebseb> scriptwarlock:  I am not sure how good the conversion is, but  as far as I know for the proper thing you need to clean install Ubuntu
[05:27] <scriptwarlock> yeah right...well gonna check this ext4 now
[05:27] <sebsebseb> scriptwarlock: optional file system for 9.04 and a bit  hmm
[05:27] <sebsebseb> scriptwarlock: default for next one
[05:28] <Zylstra555> What I just said makes no sense at all, I realize, I am very tired.. but, thats all I can think of how to describe it.
[05:28] <DasEi> scriptwarlock:all ext4 >> reformation needed, change for future data > conversoin possible
[05:28] <brickside_> testing
[05:28] <brickside_> test
[05:29] <JamesB192> Zylstra555: sounds unpleasant. I usually use use ssh and vnc. what that based off of X or RDP or what? not that I think I can help, but it sounds like a network issue.
[05:29] <DasEi> brickside_: again ? heh
[05:29] <brickside_> so it works?
[05:29] <brickside_> nice
[05:29] <scriptwarlock> i dont think its neccesary for me to play with ext4 now since everything is working fine except maybe for boot ime on 9.04
[05:29] <scriptwarlock> boot time
[05:29] <Zylstra555> JamesB192: Ubuntu's remote control uses VNC. I use SSH a lot as well... I don't beleive it is a network issue at this time.
[05:29] <Zylstra555> JamesB192: though, I was thinking about trying to configure RDP
[05:30] <DasEi> scriptwarlock: the decreas from ext4 will be marginal, if at all there, better kill uneeded services for faster boot
[05:30] <kevdog> anyplace to get a vumeter?
[05:31] <DasEi> !bum | scriptwarlock
[05:31] <sebsebseb> scriptwarlock: I suggest clean instaling Ubuntu when 9.10 final comes out
[05:31] <scriptwarlock> yeah thanks for remindeing me got some unneeded files
[05:31] <sebsebseb> scriptwarlock: then you get Ext4 as well,  unless you manually set up and  choose not to have it
[05:31] <scriptwarlock> does 9.10 has facial lift?
[05:31] <sebsebseb> scriptwarlock: facial lift??
[05:32] <DasEi> !info pavumeter | kevdog
[05:32] <venial> how can i tell what distro of ubuntu im running
[05:32] <kevdog> DasEi: What if I'm not using pulseaudio?
[05:32] <venial> i installed satanic edition
[05:32] <sebsebseb> !version |  venial
[05:32] <nnull> venial→ lsb_release -a
[05:32] <venial> k thx
[05:32] <sebsebseb> venial: I think you meant that
[05:33] <sebsebseb> venial: version not distro
[05:33] <DasEi> !version | venial :
[05:33] <venial> thnx guys
[05:33] <sebsebseb> venial: np
[05:33] <DasEi> venial : also uname -a and uname -u offers info
[05:33] <JamesB192> scriptwarlock: probably some, not as much as the kubuntu changed since I last used it.
[05:34] <DasEi> kevdog: I think it works on alsa, too
[05:34] <nnull> DasEi→ What does -u do?
[05:34] <NetEcho> what version of PHP5 is in the current repo?
[05:35] <scriptwarlock> i tried also the new 2.6.30 relase but some of my hardware wont run
[05:35] <fefer> i hear man uname
[05:35] <fefer> is great
[05:35] <kevdog> DasEi: ill install and see
[05:35] <Gnea> !info php5
[05:35] <nnull> fefer→ Yeah so do i, its never heard of -u :P
[05:35] <DasEi> nnull : right, typo , -r was right
[05:35] <NetEcho> perfect
[05:35] <scriptwarlock> could be 2.6.30 kernel available on 9.10?
[05:35] <fefer> -u stands for underestimated
[05:35] <DasEi> venial : also uname -a and uname -r offers info
[05:36] <becki> Hey all, 2 fairly complex problems:        1. I have an Averatec c3500, running Jaunty, and my USB ports don't work. Any ideas?      2. Is there any relatively easy way to program iPhone apps in Ubuntu? I would love to actually use the developer's kit that Apple provides, if possible.
[05:36] <JamesB192> I think Karmic a5 is at .31-r8 or later
[05:37] <sebsebseb> scriptwarlock:  thing is if you have the later kernel  in 9.04,   certain other things  won't have been updated,   that will have been in karmic  with that later kernel
[05:37] <CyberKitsune> becki: 2. You'll need MacOSX as Apple's SDK only runs on OSX.
[05:37] <sebsebseb> !karmic |  scriptwarlock   JamesB192
[05:38] <scriptwarlock> nice.... i hope some generic webcams runs on 9.10
[05:38] <becki> CyberKitsune: Know of anything else I can use to develop on Ubuntu then?
[05:38] <arooni-mobile___> while trying to install ubuntu to raid1 array i just set up i see : installation step failed "Select and install software"  .. any ideas on what happened and what to do next?
[05:38] <sebsebseb> scriptwarlock: could test it now  at least from the Live CD, if you really want to,  but only people that  can deal with problems,   should install development/test versions
[05:39] <mike18> I just enabled the nvidia proprietary drivers, and now on reboot the max resolution is smaller than I'd like, and there's no blue signal. I'm using TVOUT & a component cable. I'm pretty sure I need to add some flags to my xorg.conf
[05:39] <CyberKitsune> becki: Sorry, I don't :(
[05:39] <scriptwarlock> hehehe i better wait for the final release or else can break laptop
[05:39] <mike18> when I did this before it seemed like every reboot would overwrite the changes I made to the xorg.conf
[05:39] <JamesB192> becki, check lsmod for the right one of uhci-hcd or ohci-hcd and possibly ehci-hcd
[05:39] <soreau> mike18: 'blue signal'?
[05:40] <sebsebseb> scriptwarlock: well not the lap top, but the OS  install yeah possibly
[05:40] <wartalker1>  /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER wartalker rwaqhtzcvdda
[05:40] <fefer> sweet
[05:40] <JamesB192> sebsebseb: It doesn't hurt that bad.
[05:40] <mike18> my bad no "red" the screen is all blue
[05:40] <mike18> I'm pretty sure it's b/c it's not using component out
[05:40] <becki> James: how can I do that? Still getting used to the ins and outs of Terminal.
[05:40] <sebsebseb> JamesB192: karmic is  being reasonable for me so far
[05:41]  * JamesB192 pats his bleeding stump and sips his pan galactic gargle blaster.
[05:41] <scriptwarlock> i think empathy now is closing in activating the voice and webcam
[05:41] <sebsebseb> JamesB192: what doesn't hurt that bad?
[05:41] <JamesB192> Karmic Kubuntu
[05:41] <mike18> on a previous install I would add " Option "TVOutFormat" "COMPONENT" " and the right resolution & HD720p. is there a fix so that it doesn't overwrite my xorg.conf with default every reboot?
[05:41] <mike18> is it nvidia driver that is doing that or ubuntu?
[05:42] <bboru> can someone explain to me what makes redhat linux worth buying as opposed to a free distribution.
[05:42] <sebsebseb> JamesB192: Gnome with some KDE apps in it :)
[05:42] <scriptwarlock> i hope lts release is a big break for empathy..because im planning to change gyachi for empahty
[05:42] <sebsebseb> !ot |  bboru
[05:42] <mike18> soreau: please see above
[05:42] <becki> JamesB192: how can I do that? Still getting used to the ins and outs of Terminal.
[05:42] <arooni-mobile___> while trying to install ubuntu to raid1 array i just set up i see : installation step failed "Select and install software"  .. any ideas on what happened and what to do next?
[05:42] <DasEi> mike18: it shouldn't overwite , but the nvidinstaller did, and that comes with an nvidia config, look in mneu or run cmd
[05:43] <soreau> mike18: I don't understand what your issue is exactly
[05:43] <nnull> bboru→ Redhat are one of the top Kernel contributors, there's one reason :P
[05:43] <mike18> soreau: when I reboot it overwrites the xorg.conf and doesn't keep the additions I added
[05:43] <mike18> same blue output (no red) and missing Options
[05:43] <DasEi> soreau: he installed propitary and now gets a bluescreen on comp-out
[05:43] <JamesB192> becki: 'lsmod |grep -i hci-hcd' and look at the output.
[05:44] <DasEi> mike18: so boot in safe mode, reset graphics, the use nvidia tool
[05:44] <soreau> mike18: I'm not too familiar with nvidia other than their linux drivers suck. Try nvidia-settings or a different version of the driver
[05:44] <DasEi> then*
[05:44] <sebsebseb> bboru: Redhat itself is  FOSS,  hence  CentOS for example as well,   and  Redhat charge for support,  and  yes off topic
[05:45] <becki> JamesB192: Just tried it and got no result, it just went to the next line, ready for me to enter a new command.
[05:46] <dinhin> Hey guys i first installed ubuntu on my macbookpro and a few mins ago i installed windows 7.... win7 deleted or messed up grub and now i want to install it back with the ubuntu live cd. i type sudo grub and then "find /boot/grub/stage1" and i get two partitions (hd0,2) and (hd0,3) i dont know where to install it. i have a home partition and a root partition, but i dont know which one is which because when i open up gparted it never actuall
[05:46] <dinhin> y loads the partitions it just stays @loading thanks
[05:46] <arooni-mobile___> while trying to install ubuntu to raid1 array i just set up i see : installation step failed "Select and install software"  .. any ideas on what happened and what to do next?
[05:46] <arooni-mobile___> sorry for the rapid repost
[05:46] <DasEi> mike18: or have you got another display to access your desktop ?
[05:46] <mike18> DasEi: when I used the nvidia GUI tool there's no options for the resolution I want or TVOutFormat / TVStandard options
[05:46] <mike18> yeah i vnc it and it looks fine
[05:47] <NetEcho> whats the short key to switch workspaces?
[05:47] <mike18> i have connected a monitor in the past to it when this happens and it looks fine, its something with the component out
[05:47]  * JamesB192 goofed.
[05:47] <DasEi> mike18: you know the correct settings for xorg ?
[05:48] <JamesB192> becki: usb host controller drivers are built into the kernel. I can't think of anything.
[05:49] <becki> JamesB192: So basically, since nothing is showing up, it means I m missing the drivers?
[05:49] <dinhin> Hey guys i first installed ubuntu on my macbookpro and a few mins ago i installed windows 7.... win7 deleted or messed up grub and now i want to install it back with the ubuntu live cd. i type sudo grub and then "find /boot/grub/stage1" and i get two partitions (hd0,2) and (hd0,3) i dont know where to install it. i have a home partition and a root partition, but i dont know which one is which because when i open up gparted it never actuall
[05:49] <dinhin> y loads the partitions it just stays @loading thanks
[05:49] <mike18> DasEi: well I just tried this: added "Option "TVOutFormat" "COMPONENT" "; " Option "TVStandard" "HD720p" " ; "Modes "1280x1024" "
[05:49] <JamesB192> no, they're builtin to the kernel. the list only shows some loaded external modules.
[05:49] <mike18> DasEi: logged out / then I get the old "low graphics mode"
[05:50] <mike18> DasEi: I just figured out how to get out of low graphics mode problem by finally getting my nvidia drivers working. was a PITA
[05:50] <JamesB192> for the whole list you would just run 'lsmod'
[05:51] <DasEi> mike18: so got to find somebody using nvidia on composite, I have one experience from ati setting up a tv set, though results didn't well, so I left this, sorry,  maybe google it ? if you get low res, it means settings are not correct, /var/log/Xorg.0.log might give further hints
[05:52] <dinhin> Any help? i need to somehow see which partition is which...
[05:52] <Gun_Smoke> df -hT
[05:52] <mike18> DasEi: k, thanks I'll check there
[05:52] <Gun_Smoke> sudo fdisk -l
[05:52] <DasEi> dinhin: sudo fdisk -l
[05:52] <CyberKitsune> Can I upgrade from Ubuntu 9.09 to 9.10 without burning a CD?
[05:52] <Gun_Smoke> CyberKitsune, yep
[05:53] <DasEi> CyberKitsune: 9.04 > 9.10 ? yes, see :
[05:53] <DasEi> !dist-upgrade
[05:53] <Flannel> CyberKitsune: You should ask in #ubuntu+1 for all of the specifics regarding upgrading to an alpha version
[05:54] <CyberKitsune> lpha?
[05:54] <DasEi> !karmic
[05:55] <Gun_Smoke> Don't be scared.
[05:56] <wfiuewfew> Hi! I have a bunch of files owned by root. I want them to be owned by me what command do I use to change permissions on the whole directory
[05:56] <Flannel> wfiuewfew: Which files?
[05:56] <Wicked> hmm. i change the sound settings in volume control....i unmute master,headphone,pcm,speaker and turn the sliders all the way up....i then close it...but when i reboot...those are all muted again
[05:56] <Flannel> CyberKitsune: It means it's not stable and you will likely encounter problems at some point
[05:57] <JamesB192> wfiuewfew: man chown
[05:57] <Wicked> why isnt the volume control remembering my settings?
[05:57] <wfiuewfew> Flannel: Just some files I copied using sudo cp
[05:57] <Lostinspace_46> xmodmap says 1st keysym=no mod  2nd keysym=shift+key  3rd keysym=Mode_switch+key 4th keysym=shift+Mode_switch+key  xbindkeys doesn't even list Mode_switch as a mod.  Does xbindkeys run separately from xmodmap?
[05:57] <Prost_> i somehow lost my firefox launcher and have to launch it from the terminal.  How do i get the launcher back?
[05:57] <Flannel> wfiuewfew: you'll want to use chown, yeah. chown user:group files
[05:57] <shady-sheep> wfiuewfew: Well that sounds like system-related files.  What path?
[05:58] <wfiuewfew> Flannel: thanks, so I would use chown -R user:me my-files
[05:58] <thegeek6> @prost....maybe make your own
[05:58] <JamesB192> j/k 'sudo chown me:mygroup file1 ...' fill in the blanks
[05:58] <shady-sheep> wfiuewfew: chown -R john:john /home/john/
[05:58] <Prost_> thegeek6, how do i do that?
[05:58] <Gun_Smoke> wfiuewfew, while you're looking over man pages see cp as well.. look for -p
[05:58] <Lostinspace_46> Prost_: copy it from your firefoz folder and paste it to the panel
[05:58] <Flannel> wfiuewfew: chown -R username:username /path/to/folder/my/files/are/in/
[05:58] <Prost_> lostinspace_46, thanks
[05:58] <wfiuewfew> all: thanks
[05:58] <Lostinspace_46> Prost_: No prob
[05:58] <dihi> Hey guys i actually deleted my swap partition for ubuntu 9.04. Is there anyway i can tell ubuntu which partition to use as swap? i mean ican use gparted to create the swap partition, but how do i tell ubuntu to use it? thanks
[05:58] <Flannel> !swap | dihi
[05:59] <domo> hey - how can i do a complete clean remove of a package? anything more to apt-get remove ?
[05:59] <Flannel> domo: remove --purge
[05:59] <Flannel> domo: (or on more recent ones, purge is itself a command instead of remove)
[05:59] <domo> Flannel: thanks
[05:59] <arooni-mobile___> during alternate jaunty install to raid1 array i see: "installation step failed" you can try to run the menu or skip it... is there a way to figure out WHY SPECIFICALLY THIS FAILED?
[06:00] <domo> Flannel: worked thanks
[06:00] <thegeek6> @prost: right click the desktop and hit the button that says "create launcher" or similar
[06:00] <Lostinspace_46> Flannel You will still need to weed out some files afterward
[06:00] <wfiuewfew> Flannel: Why do I get chown: invalid user: `username:me'
[06:00] <Flannel> wfiuewfew: "me" likely isn't the group, ooh
[06:00] <Flannel> wfiuewfew: username:username (where both usernames are your user)
[06:00] <Lostinspace_46> domo You will still need to weed out some files afterward
[06:00] <Flannel> wfiuewfew: That's actually user:group, but your group is the same as your username
[06:01] <Flannel> Lostinspace_46: No he won't
[06:01] <wfiuewfew> all: many thanks
[06:01] <Flannel> Lostinspace_46: Only things in his homedir *if* the program was run by him and put confguration stuff there
[06:01] <dihi> Hey guys, all of a sudden now when i open gparted it just hangs at searching /dev/sda for partitons... how can i fix this
[06:01] <scrvlz> when I run apt-get update I get an error on some saying no public key, I have read online how to fix, but can someone explain to me in a nutshell what it is that a public key is?
[06:01] <DasEi> dihi : you got to line swap up in fstab
[06:02] <Lostinspace_46> Flannel: I always have stuff left after I purge
[06:02] <scrvlz> is a public key a unique code my ubuntu install has
[06:02] <dihi> daa
[06:02] <scrvlz> and if so, how does that get lost?
[06:02] <thegeek6> @scrvlz...a public key is there to verify that you are getting the correct pachages (I think)
[06:02] <Flannel> Lostinspace_46: Do you have an example we can look into?  You shouldn't
[06:02] <DasEi> dihi : gparted takes some time to load
[06:02] <dihi> dasEi, what? to fix gparted?
[06:02] <arooni-mobile___> during alternate jaunty install to raid1 array i see: "installation step failed" you can try to run the menu or skip it... here is syslog: http://pastebin.com/m53513ee9 ... any ideas on what to do next?
[06:02] <DasEi> dihi : no , to make ubuntu use swap again
[06:03] <blizzang> im trying to move my ubuntu partition so i can install XP in front but gparted is giving me errors (im running off of the LiveCD): http://paste.ubuntu.com/263577/   "Input/output error during read on /dev/sda"
[06:03] <Lostinspace_46> Flannel: I will have you one in a minute
[06:03] <domo> I'm trying to install zlibdev packages and zlib1 and zlib1-dev aren't working.. what's zlib1g?
[06:03] <DasEi> dihi : open a terminal ..
[06:03] <dihi> dasei ok
[06:03] <dihi> done

[06:05] <scrvlz> mr thegeek6, so my computer compares my key to the key at a repository?  and if they don't match gives me the error?
[06:05] <dihi> dasei i dont get  a url as a result of fdisk -l ....

[06:10] <cooldude> hi
[06:10] <blizzang> gparted is giving me errors moving my ubuntu partition: "Input/output error during read on /dev/sda"  what can I do to move the partition?
[06:10] <shrey> helloo
[06:11] <Guest58682> i had a system freeze and after i checked there was an error in log saying ""kernal: Cannot find map file" can anyone shed some light on this one for me please :)
[06:11] <mdwright> So I've created an equiv package that Provides: mysql-common, but it APT still is trying to install mysql-common when anything requires it. Any thoughts?
[06:12] <DasEi> blizzang:try e2fsck -p on it
[06:12] <mgjschdl> can someone please tell me the command line program to edit the xfce4 menu in xbuntu?
[06:12] <kiz_> okay this is driveing me crazy
[06:13] <DasEi> !paste | dihi
[06:13] <zenlunatic> mgjschdl: to edit a text file you use vim, nano, etc...
[06:13] <kiz_> how come when i add ppa in to sources, they dont show up on my package manager?
[06:13] <mgjschdl> are you serious?! did they take that ability out recently?
[06:13] <zenlunatic> mgjschdl: man page should show you where the config files are
[06:13] <blizzang> DasEi: so to get it to check /dev/sda1 I would do e2fsck -p /dev/sda1, right?
[06:13] <JamesB192> Mqueue: how many /boot/System.map* files do you have? j/k mostly
[06:14] <DasEi> blizzang:right, sudo infront
 hahaha..u da man..yes i have 2 of them
[06:14] <zenlunatic> mgjschdl: you specified command line which means most often a text file or some curses config
[06:14] <Mqueue> System.map-2.6.24-24-generic   &   System.map-2.6.27-14-generic
[06:14] <blizzang> DasEi: "/dev/sda1: clean, 280741/13410304 files, 42547338/53635010 blocks"
[06:15] <DasEi> blizzang:sudo hparm -z
[06:15] <DasEi> blizzang: sudo gparted
[06:15] <mgjschdl> ZENLUNATIC> well there used to be the ability to right-click->properties->edit menu
[06:15] <JamesB192> Mqueue: which kernel were you trying to boot in?
[06:15] <zenlunatic> mgjschdl: okay but that isn';t what you asked
[06:15] <DasEi> dihi : ?
[06:16] <mgjschdl> well... thats because its not there, or at least in default xubuntu
[06:16] <zenlunatic> well yeah you could invoke that gui tool through cli...
[06:16] <blizzang> DasEi: "/dev/sda:  re-reading partition table  BLKRRPART failed: Device or resource busy"
[06:16] <mgjschdl> whats the command line though?
[06:16] <Lostinspace_46> Flannel: Here is my output from --purge.  How do I past a screenshot?http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m73e47c58
[06:16] <zenlunatic> beats me
[06:16] <mgjschdl> haha
[06:16] <Mqueue> JamesB192>> i didn't specify anything it's auto booting..sorry kinda new at this
[06:17] <zenlunatic> i don't use xfce
[06:17] <DasEi> blizzhang : is it mounted ??
[06:17] <mgjschdl> I couldn't be bothered with kde lately, and gnome has never been my thing
[06:17] <DasEi> blizzhang : is it mounted ?? (mount with no args tells you)
[06:18] <blizzang> DasEi: nope
[06:18] <DasEi> blizzhang : gparted still open ?
[06:19] <mdwright> Does anyone have experience with dpkg equivs?
[06:19] <Mqueue> JamesB192>> seems like the log is stating System.map-2.6.27-14-generic
[06:19] <blizzang> DasEi: nope
[06:20] <padi999> hey guys, I opened port 20 and 21 for VSFTPD and the weird thing is: some clients can connect (linux ftp client) and some not (firefox, konqueror), what could be the problem here?
[06:21] <padi999> oh: from within LAN side, it works for ALL clients, so it could be a NAT or a Firewall problem
[06:21] <Sensiva> Hello all I am trying to get Commandos 2 : Men Of Courage run on my Ubuntu box. I am running Hardy 64bit. wine version 1.0. it works but no sound. any idea?
[06:21] <JamesB192> Mqueue: I don't know then. I was thinking that the initscrips might be wanting a System.map file that isn't there, but that seems to not be case.
[06:22] <Mqueue> JamesB192>> initally that's what i had thought but seems like it was not the case..so got a bit confused
[06:23] <DasEi> blizzhang :strange, does top show any pid of a elated process ?
[06:23] <DasEi> related*
[06:23] <JamesB192> padi999: anonymous user account in vsftpd? or are you using the sam account on all of them? check the server logs?
[06:24] <blizzang> DasEi: i think the problem is that i have a few bad blocks, so im currently remapping them with "sudo fsck -c -k -v /dev/sda1"
[06:25] <DasEi> blizzang: erm, if e2fsck closed clean.. don't mess things up
[06:25] <_Trinity_> hi all
[06:25] <_Trinity_> say, I was trying to upgrade brezy to dapper
[06:26] <_Trinity_> couldn't do it
[06:26] <sebsebseb> !dapper | _Trinity_
[06:26] <Polterge|st> would anyone happpen to know how to fix this http://pastebin.com/m6a85f211 ?
[06:27] <sebsebseb> !upgrade | _Trinity_
[06:27] <blizzang> DasEi: i dont trust a quick check...the partition was being moved when the computer lost power, and i managed to copy everything from /bin on the LiveCD to /bin on the hard drive, and it booted and worked just fine.  so now im trying to move the partition to install windows, im having errors (as you know) and i want to make sure that it is okay
[06:27] <_Trinity_> it not there under http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu but under http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[06:27] <blizzang> DasEi: it was having trouble reading /bin, which is why i copied them over...
[06:27] <sebsebseb> _Trinity_: why Dapper?
[06:28] <_Trinity_> those instructions don't work because they don't take account that the address points to another repository
[06:28] <sebsebseb> !8.04 |  _Trinity_
[06:28] <DasEi> blizzang: hm, the -p should have done repairs,  what is the -k option in fsck for ?
[06:28] <_Trinity_> well, dapper because I can't seem to install a new verion onto my iMac
[06:28] <sebsebseb> _Trinity_: if you can't repo update, why not do a clean install and put on at least 8.04 on?
[06:28] <_Trinity_> actually I had to install hoary
[06:28] <blizzang> DasEi: http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7658001
[06:29] <sebsebseb> _Trinity_: oh on a Mac, you can  get later versions onto Mac, but I don't  know how to put Linux onto a Mac, since don't have one
[06:29] <_Trinity_> these newer ones don't seem to want to install or I', burnig bum CDs
[06:29] <_Trinity_> but I've been checking the md5 and they turn out right
[06:29] <_Trinity_> I have burn protection too
[06:29] <sebsebseb> !dualboot | _Trinity_
[06:30] <_Trinity_> and so I'm being forced to upgrade solowly from hoary
[06:30] <_Trinity_> I figured it out. We;ll see now
[06:30] <Mqueue> JamesB192>> seems like i had to uninstall some of the linux-image packaegs and got rid of some of the stuff..just gona reboot and see thanks for your help ;-)
[06:30] <blizzang> DasEi: "-k When combined with the -c option, any existing bad blocks in the bad blocks list are preserved, and any new bad blocks found by running badblocks(8) will be added to the existing bad blocks list."
[06:31] <JamesB192> ah.
[06:31] <padi999> JamesB192: no annon accounts, you mean xfer logs?
[06:31] <blizzang> DasEi: most (read: enough) of the data is backed up, so even if I lose a few files here and there, thats okay
[06:32] <DasEi> blizzang: so mark bad blocks in the table, see
[06:32] <CaptainCrook> anyway to run a command in a specific terminal from another terminal?
[06:32] <sebsebseb> _Trinity_: well good luck
[06:32] <JamesB192> no, not the transfer logs. there should be a log of errors. lemme check quick.
[06:33] <Lostinspace_46> Flannel: Here is my output from --purge.  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m73e47c58  and here are the leftover files  http://i31.tinypic.com/2m4pnxi.jpg
[06:33] <DasEi> !ssh | CaptainCrook
[06:33] <CaptainCrook> ?
[06:33] <_Trinity_> sebastien, I now how to install linux onto a mac, it's just that I don't think these old freuity iMacs are all that well supported anymore
[06:33] <_Trinity_> they never were
[06:33] <Polterge|st> does anyone know how to fix this ? http://pastebin.com/m6a85f211
[06:34] <DasEi> blizzang: command still running ?
[06:34] <CaptainCrook> i meant both terminal are local...
[06:35] <DasEi>  CaptainCrook: same machine or two machines ?
[06:35] <CaptainCrook> DasEi,  same machine...
[06:36] <sebsebseb> _Trinity_: ok well,   Yellow Dog Linux is meant to be good on Mac as well
[06:36] <_Trinity_> I don't like rpm based distros
[06:36] <_Trinity_> once I got to Debian, I loved it
[06:37] <_Trinity_> but stable was way too old
[06:37] <sebsebseb> _Trinity_: oh ok, but why not btw ?
[06:37] <_Trinity_> and testing was too rough
[06:37] <sebsebseb> _Trinity_: yeah  exactly,  I thought about Debian,  but stable means old when it comes to Debian
[06:37] <_Trinity_> so when Ubuntu came around, it was almost right
[06:38] <_Trinity_> rpm based distros --back when I was using linux-- never garentee upgrades
[06:38] <andresmh> is there a PPA where we can find Skype 2.1?
[06:38] <_Trinity_> they can try but they always seem to break
[06:38] <sebsebseb> andresmh: not sure, but the Skype website provide it for Ubuntu
[06:38] <_Trinity_> on me anyway
[06:38] <pyRunner>
[06:38] <sebsebseb> andresmh: Skype for Ubuntu
[06:39] <_Trinity_> and rpm hell is something I've lived through
[06:39] <_Trinity_> I've hardly ever had problems with apt
[06:39] <sebsebseb> _Trinity_: ah ok
[06:39] <Lostinspace_46> Polterge|st: It looks to me like there is a file that can't be read due to a script error..You may have to remove it all by hand
[06:39] <blizzang> DasEi: yeah, its about 33% done, with about 18 minutes elapsed, so its gonna be awhile
[06:39] <andresmh> sebsebseb, but Skype provides  a download not a repo
[06:39] <pyRunner> My dual boot installation is not working after I follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot?action=show&redirect=WindowsDualBootHowTo
[06:40] <_Trinity_> I could go on and on, into the other stuff but I'll save it for another day
[06:40] <sebsebseb> andresmh: yes get the download
[06:40] <sebsebseb> _Trinity_: sure, plus it's off topic in here
[06:40] <blizzang> DasEi: the good news is that it hasnt spit out any errors or bad blocks yet, so it either hasnt hit them yet, logs all the bad blocks and spits them all out at the end, or there arent any so far...
[06:40] <sebsebseb> _Trinity_: in pm it's ok, but I am going soon anyway
[06:40] <Polterge|st> I need help here http://pastebin.com/m6a85f211
[06:40] <_Trinity_> agreed
[06:40] <Lostinspace_46> Polterge|st: It looks to me like there is a file that can't be read due to a script error..You may have to remove it all by hand
[06:40] <_Trinity_> ciao
[06:40] <Polterge|st> which file has the script error though
[06:41] <Lostinspace_46> Polterge|st: PM me if you want
[06:47] <mib> hi.how can i install Scipy packages in Ubuntu-feisty?
[06:48] <pyRunner> Hi mib
[06:48] <pyRunner> is that for Python? If so the python install.py will work
[06:48] <pyRunner> sorry... python setup.py install
[06:49] <mib> you mean apt-get install?
[06:50] <codeshah> hey guys, my /usr/bin/php links to /etc/alternatives/ php and that is php4, how can I get my default php system to get back to php5?
[06:50] <durt> mib, feisty has not been supported for a long time now.
[06:50] <karim_> hi all!
[06:50] <mib> durt: i am aware of it but i dont have much choice. at the moment.
[06:51] <durt> mib, there is an old archive for deprecated releases, point your /etc/apt/sources.list file to it.
[06:52] <mib> durt: whihc one? could you show me?
[06:52] <durt> mib, one sec, let me find it.
[06:52] <mib> sure.thanks.
[06:53] <vix> how do i remove an application installed in wine
[06:53] <kamagatos> how can my desktop be viewed remotely via the remote app (vnc)?
[06:53] <wartalker> how to set PS1 only for urxvt
[06:56] <powertool08> kamagatos: If you have enabled the built-in vnc (vino iirc), then go to another computer, install a vnc client (tightvncviewer, xvncviewer, realvncviewer, etc) tell it to connect to your ip and it should either connect or prompt for a password if you set it up.
[06:57] <kamagatos> powertool08: i tried it but it doesnt work
[06:57] <powertool08> kamagatos: Also, VNC isn't very secure on it's own, I recommend tunneling it over an ssh session(and recommend pubkey authentication for ssh)
[06:58] <powertool08> kamagatos: Does it give you any error messages?
[06:58] <kamagatos> even ssh doesnt work
[06:58] <kamagatos> connection timed out
[06:58] <powertool08> kamagatos: Are you connecting across a lan or over the internet?
[06:58] <kamagatos> over the internet
[06:59] <powertool08> kamagatos: Did you forward the ports in the router?
[07:00] <kamagatos> i use a 3g modem
[07:01] <Myscreen> Hi all ...can help with audio for my Hardy: Failed to construct test pipeline for 'gconfaudiosrc ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat'
[07:01] <powertool08> kamagatos: Can you get on the same lan and the server your trying to connect to and then connect?
[07:01] <kamagatos> powertool08: i installed firestarter to configure the port but it doesnt recognize (or i dont know how yo do it) te CDMA modem
[07:01] <SOG> can someone give me the live CD image download page please? I can't seems to find them
[07:01] <powertool08> kamagatos: Hmm, me either. I've never used a 3g modem.
[07:02] <kamagatos> when i try to connect across the lan with another sever it works normally nut over intrenet i have no response
[07:02] <Vizirka> ahh yeah nalioth brotha

[07:02] <Vizirka> I am Ongavezirke the glorious, God's favorite. By the grace of God and the faith of the crown protector of orphans and deprived peer ...
[07:03] <powertool08> kamagatos: But if it were me, I'd make sure my ports were open on routers and the box your connecting to. Verify I could connect to its private ip, then move to the public ip and use ssh -vvv, and go from the debug output
[07:03] <powertool08> kamagatos: Try the ssh -vvv, it will tell you what part of the connection process fails
[07:03] <Vizirka> heya dickhead, don1t do that
[07:04] <SOG> can someone give me the live CD image download page please? I can't seems to find them... Because I can only find AMD 64bit, I remember there used to be a live DVD game version for Intel 64bit
[07:04] <Vizirka> let's make a blowjob me nalioth brotha

[07:06] <powertool08> SOG: http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download
[07:06] <powertool08> kamagatos: manip?
[07:06] <SOG> Thanks powertool08... I went to this page too, but I am not sure how to select which iso to download, not sure how to get the iso image for intel 64
[07:07] <kamagatos> powertool: manip => dont know the englidh word sorry
[07:08] <kamagatos> but i tried ssh -vvv
[07:08] <mib> durt: so i copy the link to my source list?
[07:08] <powertool08> SOG: Oh, I think I see your problem. All x64 architectures are amd64 iso's, even for intel machines.
[07:08] <kamagatos> it work on the <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:09] <SOG> um.. thanks powertool08 let me see if I can find the old download page :P
[07:09] <durt> mib, no you have to edit your sources.list file so that all the entries point to it, if you don't know how better research it a bit before you mess it up.
[07:09] <Flannel> Lostinspace_46: everything in the evolution package is removed, but evolution depends on other packages, which contain those thigns that are still left
[07:09] <powertool08> kamagatos: can you pastebin the output of ssh -vvv
[07:09] <dsdeiz> hello, anyone here using github? how do you usually put your dotfiles there? do you guys have a folder e.g. dotfiles where you put all your dotfiles? is it like that?
[07:10] <kamagatos> ok
[07:10] <kamagatos> powertool08:ok
[07:10] <durt> mib, be aware that feisty and gutsy have a major security flaw, I believe in ssl.
[07:11] <mib> er.
[07:11] <mechdave> Anyone got gDesklets going on Jaunty?
[07:12] <Bluey> mech -- I've never heard of them sorry - do you mean applets?
[07:12] <AnxiousNut> How can I know the type of a file in terminal?
[07:13] <KB1JWQ> AnxiousNut: file $filename
[07:13] <Bluey> you can use the file command
[07:13] <Lostinspace_46> Flannel: Right, but the folders are in, for instance, lib.  Why don't they get removed
[07:13] <Bluey> file back.jpg
[07:13] <Bluey> back.jpg: JPEG image data, JFIF standard 1.01
[07:14] <Flannel> Lostinspace_46: Which folder?  Can you cite one in particular as an example?
[07:14] <dsdeiz> and one more thing, is it possible to use apt-get to install a package without root privileges? :-/
[07:14] <Bluey> dsdeiz -- not that I know of
[07:14] <SOG> powertool08 I found it, it's  http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/ubuntu-releases/jaunty/
[07:14] <AnxiousNut> thanx, i'll read man for the rest
[07:15] <Lostinspace_46> Flannel: /usr/lib/evolution
[07:15] <Lostinspace_46> Flannel: evolution being a folder, not a file
[07:15] <kamagatos> powertool08:OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-5ubuntu1, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007

[07:15] <FloodBot2> kamagatos: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:15] <dsdeiz> then i guess, i could simply download a package and do ./configure --prefix=/path/to/home right? (not exacly sure if i got it correctly. lol)
[07:16] <powertool08> SOG: More or less the same thing, you found a mirror. Read the descriptions of the Intel x86 and AMD64, if you have a 64bit cpu, then you want the amd64 image.
[07:16] <powertool08> !pastebin | kamagatos
[07:16] <Bluey> this is handy too:  file glxgears
[07:16] <Bluey> glxgears: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, stripped
[07:17] <SOG> powertool08 but I can't seems to find it in the ubuntu download page anymore, I mean they seems to be easier, just select what you want and download, but I want to look at all the iso and select one for my friend :p anyway thanks
[07:17] <Flannel> Lostinspace_46: because there are other packages that have files there, do "dpkg -S /usr/lib/evolution" to see
[07:17] <kamagatos> ubottu: thnx, im new here
[07:18] <dsdeiz> oh, what about using 'dpkg'? can i install a deb package without being root? :-/
[07:18] <kamagatos> powertool:http://paste.ubuntu.com/263599/
[07:18] <Bluey> ds - no
[07:18] <Bluey> just prefix the command with sudo and that should work
[07:18] <grawity> dsdeiz: no, dpkg requires root, and all other apps just call dpkg.
[07:18] <grawity> Bluey: dsdeiz said, "without being root"
[07:18] <Bluey> so sudo apt-get install <packagenamegoeshere>
[07:19] <Lostinspace_46> Flannel: I did and dpkg: serious warning: files list file for package `libgizmod3' missing, assuming package has no files currently installed.
[07:19] <Lostinspace_46> evolution-data-server, nautilus-sendto: /usr/lib/evolution
[07:19] <grawity> davenpro: Is it a .deb?
[07:19] <grawity> dsdeiz: Is it a .deb?
[07:19] <dsdeiz> yups
[07:19] <dsdeiz> grawity: yes, it's a .deb
[07:19] <powertool08> kamagatos: I'm not sure if this is the problem or not, but it looks like ssh wants you to be root when you connect. debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0
[07:19] <Flannel> Lostinspace_46: that's an interesting warning, but there you go, evolution-data-server and nautilus-sendto both have files in /usr/lib/evolution
[07:19] <grawity> dsdeiz: Then you need to use 'sudo dpkg -i file.deb'
[07:19] <grawity> dsdeiz: apt is only for downloading/installing from repos.
[07:20] <powertool08> kamagatos: but it shouldn't be setup that way.
[07:20] <luke_> yo how do i get rid of that annoying sound when i turn off ubuntu
[07:20] <Bluey> power - can you connect to the other machine using an explicit ip address -- ex:  <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[07:20] <dsdeiz> oh man :( still requires 'sudo'-ing.. anyways, thanks for the help ;)
[07:20] <Lostinspace_46> Flannel: Ahhh, got ya
[07:20] <kamagatos> powertool08: but i used the command in root
[07:20] <mib> durf: is scipy supported in Dapper?
[07:21] <mib> durt: is scipy supported in Dapper?
[07:21] <Flannel> mib: python-scipy?
[07:21] <luke_> yo how do i get rid of that annoying sound when i turn off ubuntu
[07:21] <grawity> dsdeiz: You don't have sudo access?
[07:21] <powertool08> kamagatos: Do you have access to the box you're trying to connect to?
[07:21] <Lostinspace_46> Flannel: Thanks.  My bedtime now.  See ya next time
[07:21] <dsdeiz> grawity: yeah, i don't have sudo access :(
[07:21] <Bluey> :-(
[07:21] <shady-sheep> !log
[07:21] <grawity> dsdeiz: So there are two ways:
[07:22] <shady-sheep> Err, is there a command on "How to make a log?"
[07:22] <kamagatos> powertool08:yes!
[07:22] <mib> Flannel:yes
[07:22] <dsdeiz> grawity: can you share them?
[07:22] <Flannel> mib: Yes
[07:22] <grawity> dsdeiz: 1) Get sudo access. (Easy if you're sitting next to PC.)
[07:22] <Flannel> grawity: er...
[07:22] <grawity> dsdeiz: 2) use 'ar' to unpack the .deb and copy files to your own homedir.
[07:22] <Flannel> shady-sheep: A log of what?
[07:22] <powertool08> kamagatos: run 'sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart' then try to connect again. Let me know if its the same output or if it changes.
[07:23] <Shady> Flannel: excuse me?
[07:23] <durt> mib, ya, there's a python-scipy and python2.4-scipy check at packages.ubuntu.com
[07:23] <grawity> Flannel: Not going to explain the 1st one - at least not yet
[07:23] <Shady> oh
[07:23] <dsdeiz> grawity: 2nd one looks neat.. i'll check on it right away.
[07:23] <mib> durt: so they only not supported i feisty? if so, what is the command to install them
[07:23] <shady-sheep> Flannel: For a script I'm working on. I'd like to know if it's working in cron so basically something like echo --> to log?
[07:23] <dsdeiz> grawity: as for the first one, would that involve a lot of steps?
[07:23] <Flannel> mib: Feisty and Edgy are EOL, Dapper is half EOL
[07:24] <Bluey> shady hand on a sec I did something like that....
[07:24] <Flannel> shady-sheep: command > file
[07:24] <Shady> ...
[07:24] <Flannel> shady-sheep: that'll send the otuput of command to a file (stdout, but not stderr)
[07:24] <kamagatos> powertool08: i've the same response => connection timed out
[07:24] <grawity> dsdeiz: Depends on your experience on the Terminal.
[07:24] <Bluey> shady I used an &> so it redirects the output and errors to a file
[07:25] <Shady> ok
[07:25] <durt> mib, if your on dapper (server) just 'sudo apt-get install python-scipy' , or python2.4-scipy.
[07:27] <stephane> yo
[07:28] <rgnr> hey all
[07:29] <powertool08> kamagatos: Hmm, I'm not sure what else it could be. Try scanning your ports, ex: nmap -p 22 localhost, make sure its open, then scan your server's private ip, ex nmap -p 22 192.168.1.x, and so on.
[07:29] <rgnr> how do i check my usb flash ?
[07:29] <rgnr> i mean check whether it's USB2
[07:29] <bD> yo
[07:29] <bD> how do i get rid of annoy sound when turning off ubuntu
[07:29] <Bluey> rgnr -- you know I don't know - good question...
[07:29] <grawity> bD: Looked in Settings -> Administration?
[07:30] <l403> try lsusb --verbose
[07:30] <kamagatos> powertool08: 22port is opened on here
[07:30] <leaf-sheep> Flannel: I found out.  Apparently it was THAT easy. Eg, echo "Nightly Backup Successful: $(date)" >> /tmp/mybackup.log
[07:30] <tleuser> hallo
[07:30] <leaf-sheep> Flannel: But placing it in /var/log/<whatever> instead. :)
[07:31] <l403> but usb1 flash drive would be probably very hard to find
[07:31] <Dayofswords> dang lenovo has a great deal on a desktop pc... though i'm broke
[07:31] <rgnr> l403: ??
[07:32] <Shtl> Hello all
[07:32] <l403> what is that supposed to mean?
[07:33] <kamagatos> powertool08: u were right! the problem probably comes from the distant machine, nmap returns => host seems down
[07:33] <powertool08> kamagatos: It may just block ping requests, try adding the -PN switch
[07:33] <zmobuntu> anyone installed xerox freflow printers?
[07:34] <kryptn> lol.. auto connect
[07:34] <powertool08> kamagatos: Do you have this same problem when you 'ssh localhost' on the server? Sorry if I asked this already, its too far to scroll back up ;)
[07:34] <Shtl> i am using 9.04 gnome, i am trying to copy a 4.2 GB iso image to my pen drive of size 8.0 GB, but after copying 4.0  GB, its giving error file too large, how can i do this plz can any one tell me??
[07:35] <Bluey> what file system is the usb drive?
[07:35] <grawity> Shtl: Your pendrive is probably using the FAT32 filesystem.
[07:35] <leaf-sheep> What's the best way to evade administration without typing in password? The script are in ~/bin and I can't echo to /var/log because of permission denied.  Add myself to the group or something?
[07:35] <grawity> Shtl: Which has a file size limit of 4 GB.
[07:36] <grawity> leaf-sheep: 'sudo' can be configured to not ask for a password. Look up 'NOPASSWD' in sudoers manpage.
[07:36] <Cptnodegard> I made a ubuntu 9.04 live USB stick - but when I boot from it it goes fine to the point where it finishes loading and I get flashing green lines instead of a desktop
[07:36] <Cptnodegard> any ideas?
[07:36] <tleuser> hallo
[07:36] <Bluey> cptn
[07:36] <codeshah> hi guys, I am trying to run PEAR but it says cannot find PHP in /usr/local/bin/php, but my php seems to be in /usr/bin/php - any clues?
[07:36] <kamagatos> powertool08: i didnt try, the server is not next to me but i'd pastin the output of -PN. http://paste.ubuntu.com/263610/
[07:36] <Bluey> I have directions on how I made my drive let me find them for you
[07:37] <leaf-sheep> grawity: I don't want to toggle off password part.  I wanted to be able to echo in root directories.
[07:37] <grawity> leaf-sheep: You can use sudo bash -c "echo whatever >> blah"
[07:37] <grawity> leaf-sheep: Or echo whatever | sudo tee -a blah > /dev/null
[07:37] <Bluey> cptn - look at this:  http://pkill-9.com/wordpress/?p=51
[07:37] <Cptnodegard> bluey, i made it the same way I made my 8.04 stick, which works
[07:38] <Bluey> well how much free space do you have?
[07:38] <Cptnodegard> on what?
[07:38] <powertool08> kamagatos: Ok, I think it may return filtered if you have firewall rules which only allow certain hosts, but if you have it setup so any machine anywhere on the internet can ssh into it, then the port is blocked and is causing the problem.
[07:38] <ElDuderino> how can i get subtitles working?
[07:38] <l403> :-D
[07:39] <Bluey> cptn -- maybe x is not configured correctly?
[07:39] <kamagatos> powertool08: so to resolve the problem i have to change the firewall rule on the server?
[07:39] <Cptnodegard> Bluey x?
[07:40] <Bluey> cptn - the x-server...
[07:40] <Bluey> the gui
[07:40] <Cptnodegard> ah
[07:40] <ElDuderino> cant anybody fix subtitles? i dont know french :(
[07:40] <Bluey> let me think on how to fix that....
[07:40] <Cptnodegard> i used this method: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-ubuntu-904-persistent-install-windows/
[07:41] <Cptnodegard> though i used a 2GB drive
[07:41] <Bluey> cptn - I used an 8 gig drive...
[07:41] <Cptnodegard> my working 8.04 stick is 4
[07:41] <powertool08> kamagatos: More or less yes. Is this a home network?
[07:41] <Cptnodegard> ill try that
[07:41] <Bluey> let me get my flash drive and see how much space is being used hand a sec
[07:42] <Cptnodegard> i use microsdh cards since theyre smaller
[07:42]  * Bluey plays the jeopary theme song in his head while drive mounts
[07:42] <Gouda> Is the automatix site down or something? when I try to get the key for it, it times out
[07:43] <Bluey> cptn - my flash drive uses 3.2G
[07:43] <jussi01> !automatix | Gouda
[07:43] <Bluey> I have gotten the server version of ubuntu in less then 1 gig - but not with the gui
[07:43] <kamagatos> powertool08: no, i'm trying to connect to my girlfriend laptop, it works 2months ago when we were at the same place but i dont why it doesnt work now she's in another place
[07:43] <Gouda> Thanks Jussi
[07:44] <jussi01> Gouda: YW
[07:44] <amirman> what's the best and most up to date anti-virus that i can install on ubuntu. i want to clean a big bunch of files i'm salvaging from a windows system. i want to be able to scan the folders for viruses before i copy the files back to the new system
[07:44] <jussi01> !info clamav | amirman
[07:44] <amirman> jussi01: thank you
[07:45] <powertool08> kamagatos: Ok, so more than likely she only has her hardware router firewall and maybe a software firewall. It has to be one of those two blocking it.
[07:46] <Gouda> Powertool. How are you trying to connect to her laptop?
[07:46] <Bluey> cptn - iirc a fresh install of ubuntu 9.04 (with no updates and the gui -- x-server) took 2.6G
[07:46] <Bluey> that was taking all the defaults -
[07:47] <powertool08> Gouda: I'm not trying to connect, kamagatos is trying to ssh and the connection fails with: http://paste.ubuntu.com/263599/
[07:47] <sharperguy> Is it possible to remove everything installed from a certain repo?
[07:48] <Gouda> is SSH running on the remote machine?
[07:48] <Gouda> and I just had a problem with connecting to my machine. I was setting up freenx. I had to add SSH port 22 to the router
[07:48] <Bluey> hmm
[07:49] <powertool08> kamagatos: ^ perhaps Gouda has some more ideas for you
[07:49] <kamagatos> Gouda: yes she made sudo / etc/init.d/ssh start before i tried to connect to her machine
[07:49] <kamagatos> powertool08: thnx for your help :)
[07:49] <Gouda> When you try to connect to it are you getting a connection refused?
[07:49] <powertool08> kamagatos: No problem, hope you get it worked out.
[07:49] <codeshah> guys, I am getting a mysql-server: Depends: mysql-server-5.1 but it is not installed
[07:49] <dreamcage> guys is there any way i can change the color of name@machinename of the terminar, to see easyer where the print started
[07:50] <codeshah> it wants me to run apt-get -f install, but that also errors out
[07:50] <kamagatos> gouda: i've a connection timed out message
[07:50] <Gouda> Ok. Do you know what type of modem/router setup she is running? cable? dsl?
[07:50] <Bluey> code - I've had much of the same problems
[07:50] <powertool08> dreamcage: if its possible, its probably done through the '. bashrc' file
[07:50] <kamagatos> gouda: a CDMA modem
[07:51] <Gouda> oh she's connected via wireless ?
[07:51] <dreamcage> powertool08, so it is not common thing to do... where is that file?
[07:51] <dreamcage> powertool08, thanks anyway
[07:51] <dreamcage> :)
[07:51] <Bluey> esp in 9.04 - what I ended up having to do, is removing the main library and re-installing - I have had several broken links which I could not fix...
[07:51] <kinglet> hi, plz give me a sources.list, bcuz I cannot install VLC or Conky
[07:51] <Gouda> So it's a USB CDMA cellphone type modem?
[07:51] <powertool08> dreamcage: It might be common, I'm not sure. Its at ~/.bashrc
[07:52] <kinglet> hi, plz give me a sources.list for 9.04, bcuz I cannot install VLC or Conky
[07:52] <jussi01> !repeat | kinglet
[07:52] <kamagatos> Gouda: yes, mobile broadband connection
[07:53] <dreamcage> powertool08, i dont know where is that... and... i think i dont know too much of linux at all
[07:53] <dreamcage> lol
[07:53] <Gouda> Well that changes things a bit. I am not familiar with those. I am not sure if there is software installed for that, that allows you to open up ports or what
[07:54] <powertool08> dreamcage: the ~ is just a shortcut, it goes to /home/<your username>/.bashrc
[07:54] <kamagatos> Gouda: but it worked once, i dont know how i did it
[07:54] <powertool08> dreamcage: I guess others do want to know the same thing: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=874995
[07:55] <dreamcage> powertool08, thanks a lot
[07:55] <Bluey> i wonder if the openssh-server is installed?
[07:55] <Gouda> Kama: has she tried unplugging and replugging in the modem?
[07:55] <donald> hey
[07:56] <Guest80755> I can't get my Nvidia Xserver to remember my settings
[07:56] <kamagatos> Gouda: when i tried to configure with firestarter the problem is that we cant choose CDMA internet connection
[07:57] <Gouda> firestarter is on her side?
[07:57] <kamagatos> Gouda: yes but not launched
[07:57] <Gouda> Can you ping her IP address at least?
[07:57] <GuidMorrow> my compizconfig settings manager keeps crashing, and all my effects keep shutting off
[07:57] <kamagatos> Gouda: let me try
[07:58] <Guest80755> can somebody help me with my NVIDIA Xserver settings?
[07:58] <Bluey> guest -- sorry beyond my knowledge level
[07:58] <Dextorion> hi
[07:59] <Guest80755> I didn't know I was logged in asguest
[07:59] <kamagatos> Gouda: Na, there's no answer
[07:59] <powertool08> dreamcage: this one may be alittle easier to understand: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/bash-shell-change-the-color-of-my-shell-prompt-under-linux-or-unix/
[07:59] <Gouda> It could be blocking ICMP pings too or you just can't reach her ip address for whatever reason
[07:59] <Bluey> ahh I was gonna have him check the driver...
[08:00] <Gouda> She can surf right?
[08:00] <ShapeShifter499> hi
[08:00] <kamagatos> yes
[08:00] <kamagatos> Gouda:yes
[08:00] <ShapeShifter499> how do I link a real hard drive to virtual box?
[08:00] <dreamcage> powertool08, thanks, the other one ppl were with hardy... so it is a little bit different
[08:00] <nnull> ShapeShifter499→ you mount it.
[08:00] <donald> I'm back now
[08:00] <ShapeShifter499> uh how?
[08:01] <Gouda> Can she ping you?
[08:01] <SkyNetMaster> hi, how can I take time that takes to download something with wget?
[08:01] <Bluey> guest - can you check the version of the driver you had installed - System/admin/nvidia x server settings
[08:01] <kamagatos> Gouda: dont know, she never tried
[08:01] <Guest86884>  You failed to identify in time for the nickname Donald
[08:01] <Guest86884> * You are now known as Guest86884      what does ths mean? What should I have done?
[08:01] <powertool08> SkyNetMaster: My wget tells me the download time by default...
[08:02] <SkyNetMaster> hum...
[08:02] <nnull> ShapeShifter499→ Select Your VM > Settings > Hard-drive > Add one
[08:02] <SkyNetMaster> powertool08, thank you I will check
[08:02] <Gouda> Kama
[08:02] <Gouda> Try running this on the laptop:        sudo lsof -i:22
[08:02] <Bluey> Guest what irc client are you using?
[08:02] <Guest86884> Xchat
[08:03] <Guest86884> Bluey: I'm using Xchat
[08:03] <Bluey> might have to do with registered/unregistered nick -- anyway not to worry
[08:03] <powertool08> SkyNetMaster: Its on the same line as the [<[08:03] <Bluey> guest -- can you check the nvidia driver your using?
[08:03] <sharperguy> Is there a command to wake the display up from sleep mode?
[08:03] <SkyNetMaster> powertool08, thank you, *need more coffe* and better internet  732 909 568 50,2M/s   in 12s
[08:03] <Gouda> Kama: What they will do is show if ssh is running or not
[08:03] <Guest86884> sure hang on
[08:04] <Bluey> Guest private messge okay?
[08:04] <Guest86884> Bluey: it's driver version 180.44
[08:04] <dreamcage> powertool08, thanks again my friend... i ll change it later
[08:04] <powertool08> dreamcage: no problem
[08:04] <Bluey> guest sounds right let me check mine...
[08:05] <kamagatos> Gouda: ok, but the machine is not next to me right now. i'll try this afternoon and post te answer here. thnx
[08:05] <Gouda> Yeah sorry dude. Not sure what is going on
[08:06] <NetEcho> is there a way to see the file size in MB value using ls or any other command ?
[08:06] <kamagatos> Gouda: thnx for ur help :)
[08:06] <powertool08> kamagatos: I'm still sticking to blocked ports on her side, or perhaps the cdma carrier blocking port 22. You might want to try running ssh on a non-standard port if all ports are open.
[08:06] <Gouda> np :)
[08:06] <powertool08> kamagatos: Although, running over cdma networks, they might block all non-standard ports :p
[08:07] <Gouda> I agree with powertool on his assessment
[08:07] <Gouda> But you said you had it working before so that is puzzling
[08:07] <kamagatos> powertool: maybe, but its the same type of connection im using
[08:07] <extor> why doesnt ubuntu have freeipmi while centos does?
[08:07] <extor> This is an outrage!
[08:08] <error404notfound> from where can i change the time for osd notifications?
[08:08] <kamagatos> Gouda: yes, dont know the real problem
[08:09] <hoink> wireless networking troubleshooting: When posting a help-request to the forum, what files and output should I include?
[08:09] <kamagatos> hoink: iwconfig
[08:09] <Mixed22891> hi
[08:09] <Mixed22891> help
[08:09] <Gouda> What is a possiblity...but it's very remote...is that the cell tower you were connecting to before she moved...wasn't blocking the port and the one you are connected to know is
[08:09] <genii> extor: Enquire about packaging it yourself ubuntu if it outrages you that much.
[08:09] <Mixed22891> eny speek hebrew
[08:09] <Gouda> but that's very remote
[08:10] <adalal> anyone experiencing errors with amsn.. ? and particularly libupnp-igd???
[08:10] <hoink> kamagatos: thx.  anything else?
[08:11] <kamagatos> Gouda: a possibility!! :D
[08:12] <Gouda> Working for an ISP myself I can attest that there is always some misconfigurations somewhere in a network

[08:14] <hoink> kamagatos: i'm using ndiswrapper.  should i include something about that?
[08:14] <powertool08> dreamcage: You inspired me to change mine, 'l08@Lakota:~$ export PS1="\e[0;32m $PS1 \e[m" pow'
[08:14] <Mixed22891> how do connect to ubuntu trugh cell modem
[08:14] <Mixed22891> how do connect to ubuntu trugh cell modem? please
[08:15] <dreamcage> powertool08, lol, great actually i dont know yet how to do it... but tomorrow when i wake up i will do it first
[08:15] <powertool08> dreamcage: I mean... this worked for me, but it's only until you close the window, the codes are in the table and there's another short section on making it stick
[08:15] <powertool08> export PS1="\e[0;32m$PS1\e[m"
[08:15] <adalal> Mixed22891: Have you looked up in the forums yet?
[08:15] <dreamcage> lol, it is easy
[08:16] <Mixed22891> no
[08:16] <twiadpaws> hi everybody
[08:16] <powertool08> dreamcage: Yep, that changes it to green (my text is white by default)
[08:16] <adalal> Mixed22891: there're community documents written up on it, i suggest you consult those... they have a detailed guide, which would be easier for you to follow
[08:16] <adalal> Mixed22891: esp. for ubuntu
[08:17] <kamagatos> hoink:  sudo iwlist wlan0 scan and post the output of command
[08:17] <dreamcage> powertool08, thats too much better, just if you get it bold it makes the terminal easyer to read, specially now that i am testing some codes in ruby
[08:18] <twiadpaws> i installed vista besides xp and ubuntu and therefore it made grub go away (haha). i reinstalled grub. linux works fine, but if i start to run a windows from the grub boot loader it tells me "starting up" but nothing happens. any suggestions?
[08:18] <dreamcage> good night ppl
[08:18] <adalal> twiadpaws: make sure the partition numbers are setup properly, i think grub handles partition numbers a little differently
[08:18] <dreamcage> bye bye
[08:18] <dreamcage> powertool08, see ya
[08:18] <donald> sharm
[08:18] <donald> bluey: it worked
[08:19] <powertool08> dreamcage: g'night
[08:19] <twiadpaws> adalal, i've tried every possible already
[08:19] <Bluey> guest - excellent - I think the problem with your nick, is that "donald" is registered to someone else --
[08:20] <Bluey> Sooo, you owe me a cup of coffee someday......
[08:20] <adalal> twiadpaws: hm, u know that grub partition numbers start from 0?
[08:20] <twiadpaws> adalal, yes, /dev/sda1 would be hd0,0 for grub
[08:20] <adalal> twiadpaws: is the partition accessible from within linux?
[08:21] <twiadpaws> adalal, well, i can list it, what do you mean by accessible? is there a way to start it from linux?
[08:21] <hoink> kamagatos: thx.  gnight
[08:21] <Mixed22891> adalal can you give me a link for that please?
[08:21] <powertool08> Sorry to hijack, but while we're on the subject of grub... When I get kernel updates, it changes my menu.list file from sda to hda and then it won't reboot until I change it back. Anyone know how to make it generate the right info?
[08:21] <adalal> twiadpaws: as in, access the files on the partition by mounting it on the linux os?
[08:22] <donald> hi
[08:22] <adalal> Mixed22891: just a second
[08:22] <powertool08> *won't boot until I change then reboot
[08:22] <Mixed22891> thnks
[08:22] <Bluey> yeah sound like "donald" is a registered nick...
[08:22] <kamagatos> hoink: g'night
[08:22] <Mixed22891> thanks*
[08:22] <Guest90238> You failed to identify in time for the nickname Donald
[08:22] <Guest90238> * You are now known as Guest90238    How do I identify?
[08:23] <adalal> twiadpaws: tell me if u can mount the vista/xp filesystem in ubuntu/other linux os
[08:23] <Bluey> guest -- let me look that up - I don't remember but it's not hard...
[08:24] <powertool08> Guest90238: If the nick is registered, and you didn't register it, you can't identify. Just add some numbers at the end until it lets you connect.
[08:24] <adalal> Mixed22891: how do u plan on connecting the phone to the pc? bluetooth?
[08:24] <Guest90238> Bluey: thanks for helping me gain ^^
[08:24] <DJones> Guest90238: Change nick back to Donald, then you need to type "/msg nickserv identify yourpassword" without the quotes
[08:24] <twiadpaws> adalal, just tried it, i can mount the vista partition, but the xp partition seems to be damaged
[08:24] <powertool08> Guest90238: and its something like / msg Nickserv identify <yournick> <password>
[08:24] <Guest90238> in here?
[08:24] <Bluey> thanks dj I couldn't remember how I did that...
[08:24] <Guest90238> powertool88: in here?
[08:24] <Guest90238> powertool08: in here?
[08:25] <adalal> twiadpaws: there are tools out there to try and repair the damaged partitions.. i suggest you have a look?
[08:25] <twiadpaws> adalal, i accidentally installed grub onto a partition instead of the mbr before, could that be the cause. well, did i fuck my xp partition by doing that?
[08:25] <powertool08> Guest90238: to change your nick type "/nick yournewnick"
[08:25] <Mixed22891> adalal its cell modem
[08:25] <twiadpaws> adalal, aight, thanx mate
[08:25] <Mixed22891> adalal its cell modem
[08:25] <hyperutz> how can i mount an usb flash stick on ubuntu ?
[08:25] <adalal> Mixed22891: i know... but how are you connecting the cellphone to the computer?
[08:25] <DJones> Guest90238: Use "/nick Donald" then enter, followed by "/msg nickserv identify password", just make sure the / is the first character and it should be recognised by freenode
[08:26] <powertool08> Guest90238: And yes, in here, but if you want to always connect with a certain nickname you have to specify it in the client preferences
[08:26] <Mixed22891> modem
[08:26] <Mixed22891> usb card
[08:26] <adalal> oh
[08:26] <adalal> Mixed22891: it doesn't show up under network manager?
[08:26] <Mixed22891> no
[08:27] <adalal> Mixed22891: ran a ifconfig?
[08:27] <Mixed22891> whats is that?
[08:27] <adalal> open a terminal.. run ifconfig
[08:27] <Mixed22891> then
[08:27] <adalal> u'll see stuff like (eth0 for ethernet, wlan0 for wireless)
[08:27] <Mixed22891> ?
[08:27] <adalal> pm me
[08:27] <Mixed22891> ok
[08:27] <adalal> and post the output there
[08:28] <Mixed22891> ill try

[08:32] <prizren> hi all
[08:32] <lex0> how come I am not running amd64 processor, i just wanna install ubuntu32 bit b/c i dont want problems w/ 64 bit, it keeps installing 64bit ubuntu??
[08:33] <prizren> i just installed firefox-3.5 in jaunty and my flash plugin does not work
[08:33] <prizren> any suggestions
[08:33] <DJones> lex0: Have you downloaded the 32 bit install cd, or just the 64 bit cd?
[08:33] <prizren> on 32 bit
[08:33] <Bluey> prizen - have you restarted ff?
[08:33] <Bluey> I get that from time to time - and usually just shut ff down, and bring it back up...
[08:34] <lex0> DJones: i went on the ubuntu website and clicked 32bit the installation file even says i386 but when its installing i see downloading AMD64.zip or something and when it installs on WUBI its always 64bit
[08:34] <lstarnes> lex0: what other OS are you using?
[08:35] <karimas> anyone have little monitor and problem with big window?? Is so hard use little computer, next one will be a 15" laptop, sure!
[08:35] <karimas> :-D
[08:35] <lex0> well i just uninstalled ubuntu now im on winxp
[08:35] <Bluey> lex
[08:35] <powertool08> lex0: I'd try another mirror, maybe the links to the images are messed up?
[08:35] <Bluey> save yourself a lot of grief - install windows first, then ubuntu last...
[08:36] <SkyNetMaster> hi, does anybody know that is the url of only installiation tree of ubuntu i386
[08:36] <lex0> but the files are the same, they keep saying i386
[08:36] <Bluey> sky I have ubuntu on my ftp
[08:37] <SkyNetMaster> Im trying to install  ubuntu on xen, but it wont accept iso, so I want to try online tree ...
[08:37] <powertool08> lex0: Try installing from a livecd instead of wubi, its not difficult.
[08:37] <Bluey> nope I killed it...
[08:37] <lstarnes> SkyNetMaster: I don't know of an online tree
[08:37] <lex0> but i wanna still have winxp
[08:37] <lstarnes> lex0: you can
[08:37] <lstarnes> lex0: have you heard of dual booting?
[08:37] <lex0> yes
[08:38] <DJones> lex0: I've got no experience with wubi, so i can't help with that, you can dual boot winxp & ubuntu if you've got free space on your drive
[08:38] <lex0> but i forget exactly how to do it i have like 100+ gb space
[08:38] <DJones> !dualboot | lex0
[08:39] <prizren> !flash
[08:39] <lstarnes> SkyNetMaster: you could try using a tool such as debootstrap to install ubuntu under a new directory
[08:40] <SkyNetMaster> lstarnes, thanks, will chek it out,
[08:40] <lstarnes> SkyNetMaster: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen may be useful

[08:47] <LiL_mr-t> is there a log kept of network connections, for example ip addresses given out by dhcp when connecting to wifi, and if so, how long is the log kept?
[08:47] <powertool08> LiL_mr-t: Thats up to the wifi administrator
[08:47] <unixtech> yes boobah
[08:47] <lex0> may i PM someone about dual booting?
[08:47] <unixtech> hq
[08:48] <unixtech> i allready installed the dependecies
[08:48] <Bluey> lex
[08:48] <lex0> yes
[08:48] <LiL_mr-t> powertool08, so linux doesn't keep a log by default?
[08:48] <Bluey> yes I am the dual boot guy
[08:49] <lstarnes> lex0: it might be better to keep it in the channel
[08:49] <Nemorensis> Hiya, could someone help me with a little problem?
[08:49] <powertool08> LiL_mr-t: Sorry, I don't know.
[08:49] <LiL_mr-t> powertool08, ok np, thanks.
[08:50] <Beefedcake> hi is there a way ubuntu can consume less power in battery mode?
[08:51] <Nemorensis> I have dual boot windows with ubuntu and made a little mistake with my hard drive space. I create 2 partitions from Windows and afterwards I installed Ubuntu. Now I can't install much on my Ubuntu drive since I only have 37mb free space.
[08:51] <Beefedcake> its draining my battery like mad
[08:52] <Jakobsen> I have a lot of services running from the directory /var/tmp/Shit/ as the user "rsync".. Has my linux-box been hacked?
[08:52] <Dextorion> Nemorensis, format one of the windows partitions to ext3, and mount it to some directory in your home directory.
[08:53] <DJones> lex0: Unfortunately, I'm just at work now so I can't really help for very long, as lstarnes says it would be better to keep any queries in the channel in case the person who helps you has to go away unexepectedly, somebody else could take over and would know what had been suggested by reading the channel's scrollback
[08:53] <Nemorensis> Can I do that inside of Windows?
[08:53] <lstarnes> Jakobsen: rsync is the user account used by the rsync service, which handles remote synchronization of files
[08:53] <Dextorion> Nemorensis, preferably from linux. There might be some win program to format ext3. i dont know.
[08:54] <Jakobsen> Several sshd processes and pscan2 is being run by that user, and in the dir I've got a lot of files e.g. vuln.txt and pass.txt
[08:54] <Nemorensis> I need to install Gparted for that I assume?
[08:54] <Jakobsen> lstarnes, and by the way, I'm not using rsync!
[08:54] <lstarnes> Jakobsen: that definitely seems odd
[08:54] <powertool08> Jakobsen: Kinda sounds like it. take a look at the output of 'netstat -tunlp'
[08:55] <Dextorion> Nemorensis, gparted would make it easier anyways yeah
[08:55] <Nemorensis> I cant install it since I don't have enough space.
[08:55] <Jakobsen> powertool08, what should I be looking for?
[08:55] <powertool08> Jakobsen: Anything odd
[08:55] <Dextorion> Nemorensis, then find some tool to format to ext3 in windows
[08:56] <unixtech> ok so i downloaded wine 1.01 extracted it on the desktop
[08:56] <Dextorion> Nemorensis, or to delete one windows partition, and resize the existing linux partition.
[08:56] <Jakobsen> powertool08, there's nothing odd in there.. my webserver and X ports..
[08:56] <george___> hey guys, quick question, i want to see how many resources flash takes when running inside firefox (i.e. to see a video from youtube), using top i only get the firefox process, but not any threats of it, i tried using htop but still not seeing anything, any suggestions?
[08:56] <unixtech> so make file in term
[08:56] <unixtech> what do i do
[08:56] <Dextorion> Nemorensis, resizing would perhaps be simpler actually
[08:56] <Nemorensis> How do I do that?
[08:56] <powertool08> Jakobsen: You can pastebin the output if you want somebody else to take a look
[08:56] <lstarnes> unixtech: there are pre-compiled packages for wine for ubuntu
[08:56] <Dextorion> Nemorensis, you find some win tool that can resize and format partitions...
[08:56] <lstarnes> unixtech: are you attempting to compile it from source?
[08:57] <unixtech> nut sure
[08:57] <Dextorion> Nemorensis, partition magic is one. but that one costs money
[08:57] <unixtech> i think so
[08:57] <lstarnes> unixtech: what file did you donwload?
[08:57] <Nemorensis> I have it downloaded
[08:57] <powertool08> Jakobsen: If you have another computer you might want to disconnect that one from the net until you're sure its ok
[08:57] <Dextorion> Nemorensis heh.. why did you ask then? :p
[08:57] <unixtech> a tar file
[08:58] <mint> hey anyone here know how I can fix x from a livecd so i dont have to reinstall
[08:58] <unixtech> bz2
[08:58] <lstarnes> unixtech: trry sudo apt-get install wine
[08:58] <Nemorensis> Because I am not sure how to do it and don't feel like screwing my stuff up
[08:58] <unixtech> ty man
[08:58] <Jakobsen> powertool08, here you go: http://www.pastebin.org/14138
[08:58] <mint> I just installed fglrx and it borked my system and i cant boot, freezes up at splash screen
[08:58] <Dextorion> Nemorensis, sometimes you have to try
[08:58] <lstarnes> unixtech: that will install the pre-compiled package for it if there is one
[08:58] <lstarnes> unixtech: wine also has its own repository containing the current development and stable versions of wine
[08:58] <mint> anyone
[08:59] <Jakobsen> powertool08, I just killed all processes running as "rsync". That seemed to deal with most of the disturbance..
[08:59] <Nemorensis> Worst case scenario, I will have to reinstall both of them again.
[08:59] <unixtech> its working
[09:00] <theevilone> does anyone know how to fix a messed up system from installing ati drivers from a live cd?
[09:00] <theevilone> sorry if this is repeat message
[09:00] <icarus-c> theevilone: what is the problem actually?
[09:01] <cchen> theevilone: what's not working?
[09:01] <usr13> theevilone: Just fix what you have?
[09:01] <theevilone> i installed ati driver, and now when booting screen goes crazy at splash screen and freezes up system
[09:01] <usr13> theevilone: What video card do you have?
[09:01] <Jakobsen> powertool08, I just opened the vuln.txt.. There is 10 IP addresses of servers, and root logins for every one of them.. That's definately not good
[09:01] <powertool08> Jakobsen: nope
[09:02] <theevilone> ati radeon 3200 hs
[09:02] <theevilone> hd
[09:02] <veinor> powertool08: oh dear, what's this all about
[09:02] <powertool08> Jakobsen: You might want to consider backing up personal data and reinstalling.
[09:02] <theevilone> is is possible to reconfigure it from a livecd so i dont have to reinstall
[09:02] <cchen> theevilone: press control-alt-f1 to get to command prompt.  then modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf to make it right
[09:02] <Jakobsen> powertool08, I will ;) thank you for the help..
[09:02] <lstarnes> Jakobsen: did you ever set a password on your root account?
[09:02] <usr13> theevilone: lspci | pastebin
[09:02] <cchen> theevilone: by the way, once to get to the console, kill gdm first
[09:03] <powertool08> veinor: Jakobsen thinks he/she was hacked and has lots of suspicious files in a tmp folder
[09:03] <theevilone> cchen what do i have to change, I already tried changing the driver part from fglrx to radeon and it still didnt fix it
[09:03]  * veinor checks logs
[09:03] <icarus-c> theevilone: remove fglrx
[09:03] <veinor> yeah, i'd flatten and reinstall
[09:03] <bams> hi
[09:03] <cchen> theevilone: btw, where did you get your ati driver?
[09:03] <theevilone> im pretty new to linux so i really dont know too much from terminal yet
[09:04] <Jakobsen> veinor, after all it's just a mini ITX server running Ubuntu 9.04 with XBMC on top of it.. No problem reinstalling
[09:04] <theevilone> envy
[09:04] <veinor> Yeah, I'd flatten it and reinstall. Did you ever set a root password or did you leave it unset?
[09:04] <Michalxo> theevilone, always you get some error from terminal, just try and paste it into google :)
[09:04] <cchen> theevilone: you should be using fglrx driver from ubuntu repository..
[09:04] <usr13> theevilone: In terminal type:  "lspci | pastebin" (without quotes)
[09:05] <theevilone> says command not found
[09:05] <theevilone> i am running on livecd now if that matters
[09:05] <powertool08> Jakobsen: Judging from the Mar 25 2006 dates, either your date is wrong, or this machine has been compromised for quite some time
[09:05] <Jakobsen> veinor, I set my root password manually after Ubuntu install.. 8 chars with both numbers, capital and small letters.. I thought it would be runnung a little bit longer before getting hacked :D
[09:06] <veinor> ... oh yeah, what's up with those dates?
[09:06] <Jakobsen> powertool08, My time is right, and the machine was installed a week ago..
[09:06] <theevilone> so what command would i use to remove the fglrx from live cd?  cant I chroot into my tanked install and fix it that way?
[09:06] <livingdaylight> having installed mplayer from Synaptic i also see mencoder next to mplayer. Is it an advantage to have mencoder installed also?
[09:06] <cchen> theevilone: also suggest "sudo aticonfig --initial -f" after install fgirx driver
[09:06] <veinor> could've utimed them I guess
[09:06] <Jakobsen> I've added /usr/sbin/nologin to the rsync user
[09:06] <Bluey> nytol....
[09:07] <usr13> theevilone: Are you just running from liveCD?
[09:07] <Beefcaked> hi guys can someone help me since i installed ubuntu to this laptop it now consumes more power
[09:07] <powertool08> Jakobsen: It looks like the attacker used pscan2 to scan your subnet 20 hosts at a time
[09:07] <theevilone> usr13 yea i cant boot into my install cuz of ati issue
[09:07] <theevilone> usr13 thats why im hoping i can fix it from here so i dont have to reinstall
[09:07] <Michalxo> Beefcaked, "pretty normal".. I'll try to find some info in ubuntuforums.org (you should too :) )
[09:07] <cchen> theevilone: don't remove fglrx because that's the driver that will work with your gpu.
[09:08] <theevilone> cchen well normally i dont install it, i just run off of whatever is installed by default
[09:08] <Jakobsen> powertool08, it's the only host on my subnet except for my laptop and my WRT54GL :D
[09:08] <Michalxo> Beefcaked, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1209763
[09:08] <theevilone> but i was enabling emerald and compiz and thats why I had to install fglrx and thast when things went south
[09:08] <Jakobsen> powertool08, but he also scanned a lot of outside IP
[09:08] <powertool08> Jakobsen: Hmm, maybe it was somebody elses
[09:08] <cchen> theevilone: let me check, i'm not sure if fglrx is installed by default.
[09:08] <Beefcaked> :)
[09:09] <livingdaylight> guys, can someone tell me about mencoder?
[09:09] <theevilone> cchen it isnt
[09:09] <Jakobsen> powertool08, and the positive results are written in the vuln.txt file.. I'm getting rid of that..
[09:09] <livingdaylight> what addistional benefit does mencoder provide?
[09:09] <Michalxo> Beefcaked, and search that forum for similar tags.. (register if not registered.. you'll use it VERY often.. at least I do :) )
[09:09] <theevilone> cchen Im sure of it, when I went to enable compiz, it said i had to get fglrx in order to enable it
[09:09] <powertool08> Jakobsen: You could try to identify the hosts and let them know if you felt like being nice :)
[09:09] <veinor> Jakobsen: The point is that your box is essentially compromised and you're not oging to get out of this without a complete reinstall
[09:09] <theevilone> cchen i think i had radeon by default
[09:09] <veinor> but yeah do what powertool08 said
[09:09] <SockPants> hi
[09:09] <cchen> theevilone: can you try this in the console: "fglrxinfo" and see what do you have?
[09:09] <usr13> theevilone: Oh so you want to transfer the xorg config to the HD?
[09:10] <Jakobsen> veinor, exactly.. I will just shut it down for now, and reinstall later today..
[09:10] <theevilone> says its not currently installed
[09:10] <SockPants> i'm using ubuntu 9 on a laptop, and i can't seem to get my screen brightness any higher then dim. when i press the buttons on my keyboard a little brightness bar appears but it has no effect whether its full or empty
[09:10] <theevilone> usr13 i just want to get it back to the way it was so I can boot and use my system
[09:10] <theevilone> usr13 i got a virtualbox and a whole bunch of stuff i dont wanna have to reinstll
[09:11] <usr13> theevilone: Is the HD mounted?
[09:11] <theevilone> usr13 yea
[09:11] <livingdaylight> hello!
[09:11] <livingdaylight> can you read me?
[09:11] <usr13> theevilone: Where is the mount point?
[09:11] <veinor> No, we can't.
[09:11] <veinor> :P
[09:11] <livingdaylight> am i connected?
[09:11] <theevilone> ??
[09:11] <livingdaylight> hello?
[09:11] <veinor> livingdaylight: yes, go ahead and ask your question
[09:11] <DJones> Jakobsen: This page my give you some advice, particularly the references to rkhunter and chkrootkit, probably won't help with your current system, but maybe worth a read anyway https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingSecurityTools
[09:11] <theevilone> usr13 you mean like dev/sda/01
[09:12] <usr13> theevilone: Bring up a terminal and type   mount
[09:12] <usr13> theevilone: Yes...
[09:12] <livingdaylight> veinor: i asked a lot of times - Mencoder, can you tell me what additional benefit it provides? should i add to mplayer ?
[09:12] <usr13> theevilone: Is that it?
[09:12] <Jakobsen> DJones, thank you.
[09:12] <theevilone> usr13 i think home is mounted on sda1 as linux starts counting at 0 right
[09:12] <cchen> theevilone: yep, the driver that should work on ati 3200 hd is fglrx.  you will need to modify that in your xorg.conf.  But you will need to install fglrx driver first.  If I remember correctly, the radeon driver only supports up to certain ati cards.  My old thinkpad t41 is using the radeon driver.  :-)
[09:12] <usr13> theevilone: Bring up a terminal and type   mount
[09:13] <veinor> livingdaylight: I don't remember what specifically it does, but I don't think it'll hurt
[09:13] <usr13> theevilone: and tell me what the mount point for your linux install is.
[09:13] <theevilone> I have sda1 which i think is / and sda5 which is home
[09:13] <theevilone> and sr0 which is cdrom
[09:13] <SockPants> anyone, help with screen brightness
[09:13] <cchen> theevilone: btw, are you running x86 or amd64?
[09:13] <theevilone> amd64
[09:13] <usr13> theevilone: Bring up a terminal and type   mount  and pastebin the results
[09:14] <usr13> theevilone: mount | pastebin
[09:14] <theevilone> although sda5 says disk 1 and sda5 is disk2
[09:14] <Beefcaked> is there anyway to test if my webcam is working under linux in a new ubuntu installation?
[09:14] <theevilone> pastebin command not found
[09:14] <veinor> Beefcaked: run cheese
[09:14] <usr13> pastebin | sudo fdisk -l
[09:14] <veinor> you should see yourself
[09:15] <theevilone> /dev/sda5 on /media/disk-1 type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal)
[09:15] <theevilone> /dev/sda1 on /media/disk-2 type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal)
[09:15] <usr13> theevilone: pastebin | sudo fdisk -l
[09:15] <powertool08> !pastebin > theevilone
[09:15] <Beefcaked> alright im getting it through synaptic right now, any chance itll show up in my applications or do i have to run it via terminal?
[09:15] <Nemorensis> It doesnt quite work :(
[09:16] <usr13> theevilone: sudo cp /media/disk-1/etc/X11/xorg.conf /media/disk-1/etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[09:16] <veinor> Beefcaked: it should show up in your applications, but you can run it fine in a terminal; it's a GUI program
[09:16] <theevilone> yes the home is on sda5
[09:16] <Beefcaked> i see, because beforehand someone told me to install 'gqcam' but i have no idea how to run it
[09:16] <unixtech> ls am i done
[09:17] <SockPants> i'm using ubuntu 9 on a laptop, and i can't seem to get my screen brightness any higher then dim. when i press the buttons on my keyboard a little brightness bar appears but it has no effect whether its full or empty
[09:17] <ziker> hello guys, anyone knows how can i enable sli on ubuntu i have 2 nvidia 8600GT?
[09:17] <theevilone> says cannot stat
[09:17] <theevilone> no such file or directory
[09:18] <Michalxo> Beefcaked, don't you have cheesecam already?
[09:18] <theevilone> usr13 do we got wrong partition ?
[09:18] <Michalxo> * Beefcaked cheese (name of app) :)
[09:18] <Beefcaked> Michalxo: i dont know. im installing it now via synaptic
[09:18] <unixtech> whoops looked in apps done
[09:18] <usr13> theevilone: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[09:18] <Curran_Long> SockPants: did you try to make sure you are using the right driver for your video card
[09:18] <unixtech> now to create a fake drive
[09:18] <SockPants> Curran_Long: i think so, all the extra desktop effects work
[09:18] <Beefcaked> Michalxo: are you familiar with gqcam and how to run it? :s recent installed it via synaptic, it was a suggestion from someone here]
[09:18] <madsj> hi; I'm trying to run "sudo aptitude build-dep gcc binutils bochs genext2fs" but am told that I need to add some source-lines to my sources.list
[09:18] <juro> hi, I am running a upgraded 9.04 and would like to know when Firefox 3.5.x will be available?
[09:18] <Michalxo> Beefcaked, I thoguht it;s in by default... :)
[09:19] <Michalxo> Beefcaked, not at all
[09:19] <theevilone> couldnt find package pastebin
[09:19] <madsj> juro: try "sudo aptitude firefox-3.5"
[09:19] <cchen> theevilone: i don't think you can install any packages in a live cd mode.  is there a way for you to install ubuntu to your system?
[09:19] <madsj> juro: try "sudo aptitude install firefox-3.5"
[09:19] <veinor> juro: sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5
[09:19] <ziker> judo : type sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5
[09:19] <veinor> we're helpful :D
[09:19] <JonathanEllis> I'm trying to get wifi working on my laptop. I have setup the Wireless Connection successfully in Network Settings and I can ping the Wireless router but I cannot browse websites or ping www.google.com. On my desktop machine connected to the same router I have full internet access including browsing and pinging google. Confusingly, the laptop could browse a few minutes ago but I dont think I have changed anything in the last few minutes. Also I want
[09:19] <Beefcaked> veinor: cheese reports no webcam found :(
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> juro: its a seperate app in jaunty so you will still have 3.0.11 and 5.5.2
[09:19] <cchen> theevilone: or install it in a usb stick
[09:20] <madsj> anyone who has some source-lines they'd like to share ?
[09:20] <veinor> Bleh
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> *3.5.2
[09:20] <veinor> I don't know much about webcammy stuff, i've never used one, so I'm going to have to hand you off to someone else
[09:20] <juro> ActionParsnip, ah, ok ... any idea why this is seperate?
[09:20] <theevilone> cchen I can reinstall ubuntu but I have a virtualbox in my install to so i dont wanna have ot reinstall all of this
[09:20] <JonathanEllis> cchen: theevilone: You can install packages when running a livecd. However, when you reboot they will be gone as they are only stored in RAM
[09:21] <theevilone> cchen is it possible to just copy those config files over the borked ones?
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: do you have nameservers identified in your /etc/resolv.conf file
[09:21] <cchen> jonathanellis: exactly.
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: can you run: ping www.google.com -c 4
[09:21] <usr13> theevilone: yes
[09:21] <usr13> theevilone: sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[09:21] <SockPants> still cant change brightness
[09:22] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: can you run: ping <IP_ADDRESS> -c 4
[09:22] <JonathanEllis> theevilone: If you have a dedicated home partition your virtualbox settings will be preserved in your home directory
[09:22] <Beefcaked> can someone help me get my webcam working on this vaio laptop i just installed ubuntu on?:)
[09:23] <theevilone> http://pastebin.com/f18ed6ac6
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> Beefcaked: run: lsusb   there wil be an 8 hex character identifier you can websearch for
[09:24] <Beefcaked> ActionParsnip: um, can I run that in the terminal as it comes with ubuntu? what 8 hex character do i need to provide
[09:24] <usr13> theevilone: sudo mount | pastebinit
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> Beefcaked: its a terminal command
[09:24] <theevilone> http://pastebin.com/f67b682e
[09:25] <JonathanEllis> ActionParsnip: Both pings report 100% packet loss. /etc/resolve.conf no such file or directory
[09:25] <cchen> theevilone: if you've already got a virtualbox setup, backup the .vdi and virtual machine so that it will save you quite some time.  the problem are you have of running a live cd is that the settings won't be persist after you boot as JonathanEllis has pointed out.  I can't figure out anyway to install fglrx driver without messing it up after rebooting.
[09:25] <sleepy_cat> Hi i am so sorry i am posting it here but since many use facebook maybe someone can help.. i clicked display on wall in one of the apps then i went in the wall and disabled that.. but then it keeps reappearing in the wall.. how to get rid of it
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: ok thats not good at all
[09:25] <RockClimber> Is there an ubuntu  netbook remix specific forum?
[09:25] <powertool08> JonathanEllis: resolv not resolve
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: yeah sorry, /etc/resolv.conf
[09:26] <veinor> RockClimber: I think there's a UNR subforum of the ubuntu forums
[09:26] <JonathanEllis> powertool08: Thanks. ActionParsnip: nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:26] <theevilone> cchen: i dont even want to install fglrx i just want to get back to default which was radeon driver
[09:26] <madsj> could anyone please post a supported deb-src line from their sources.list ?
[09:26] <veinor> huh, guess not
[09:26] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: ok, run: gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf    and add these lines:
[09:26] <theevilone> cchen: fglrx is what tanked my setup running radeon was fine
[09:26] <SockPants> anyone, screen brightness on latpop
[09:26] <usr13> theevilone: cp /media/disk-1/etc/X11/xorg.conf /media/disk-1/etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: wait, did the pings to www.goog.com translate to an IP address?
[09:27] <cchen> theevilone: kk, then remove /etc/X11/xorg.conf or rename it and restart your x.  a new xorg.conf should be generated to fix your graphic problem.
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> usr13: that'll need sudo, users dont have write access to /etc/X11
[09:27] <theevilone> usr13: cp: cannot stat `/media/disk-1/etc/X11/xorg.conf': No such file or directory
[09:27] <cchen> theevilone: btw, kill gdm too.
[09:27] <usr13> theevilone: sudo cp /media/disk-1/etc/X11/xorg.conf /media/disk-1/etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[09:27] <theevilone> cchen: what is gdm?
[09:27] <juro> ActionParsnip, is it correct that Ubuntu names Firefox3.5 Shiretoko?
[09:28] <cchen> theevilone: your x server
[09:28] <Beefcaked> ActionParsnip: i believe what im looking for is 054c:01bb
[09:28] <SockPants> i'm using ubuntu 9 on a laptop, and i can't seem to get my screen brightness any higher then dim. when i press the buttons on my keyboard a little brightness bar appears but it has no effect whether its full or empty...
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> juro: its the codename for some reason or other, its exactly the same app
[09:28] <juro> ActionParsnip, ok, thank you!
[09:28] <theevilone> usr13: same thing
[09:28] <cchen> theevilone: kill it and restart it so it will regenerate a new xorg.conf after you've either rename it or remove it.
[09:28] <juro> and thanx to all others!
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> Beefcaked: looks good, go forth and find
[09:28] <cchen> theevilone: it should be back to your default xorg
[09:29] <veinor> juro: yeah, there's some reason they don't want it called Firefox.
[09:29] <usr13> theevilone: ls /media/disk-1/etc/X11/xorg*
[09:29] <veinor> the Ubuntu guys don't, that is
[09:29] <JonathanEllis> ActionParsnip: pings to google resolve to <IP_ADDRESS>          <IP_ADDRESS> is my wifi router
[09:29] <theevilone> cchen: so i can just delete it from this livecd and then boot into my install to do this?
[09:29] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: hmm, I get <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: if you click on: http://<IP_ADDRESS>   does it bring up the page?
[09:30] <theevilone> usr13: cannot access media/disk
[09:30] <veinor> <IP_ADDRESS> is also google, though.
[09:30] <powertool08> JonathanEllis: I get <IP_ADDRESS>, I think it varies by location
[09:30] <Beefcaked> ActionParsnip: yeah i know what im looking for is a driver, but how do i know when ive found it? most of the pages in the search return stuff thats *gibberish* to me
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> ok well try http://IP address here
[09:30] <cchen> theevilone: you can rename it "sudo mv /media/disk-1/etc/X11/xorg.conf media/disk-1/etc/X11/xorg.conf.old"
[09:30] <usr13> theevilone: sudo cp /media/disk-2/etc/X11/xorg.conf /media/disk-2/etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[09:31] <usr13> theevilone: sudo mv /media/disk-2/etc/X11/xorg.conf /media/disk-2/etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[09:31] <JonathanEllis> ActionParsnip: I was just going to say the same as powertool08. My desktop machine connected to the same router as my laptop pings google successfully but comes up with the same ip as my laptop
[09:31] <usr13> cchen: Good idea.... was going to delete it afterwards, but...
[09:31] <theevilone> now in terminal i just got a > and blinking cursor
[09:32] <usr13> theevilone: So no error?
[09:32] <usr13> theevilone: That means it worked.  Now just boot the system and see if it works ok.
[09:32] <Flannel> theevilone, usr13: you typed something wrong, make sure there's a space in between those, also, you need a / before your second media
[09:32] <theevilone> usr13: no but my mint@mint ~ $ didnt come back
[09:32] <Flannel> (it's waiting for more input)
[09:32] <cchen> theevilone: after you've rename it, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop, you will lose your X server.  At the terminal, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start to bring it backup...
[09:32] <usr13> theevilone: Oh,,,
[09:32] <chordogg> ActionParsnip: the reason you are receiving two different ip address for the same url is probably due to DNS round robin
[09:33] <usr13> theevilone: Ctrl-c
[09:33] <theevilone> usr 13 k its back
[09:33] <ActionParsnip> chordogg: sounds likely
[09:33] <CyberCr33p> does someone tried to do iphone tethering with ubuntu?
[09:33] <usr13> theevilone: ls /media/disk-1/etc/X11/xorg*
[09:33] <JonathanEllis> ActionParsnip: on the laptop the browser wont bring up a page from the IP address either
[09:33] <cchen> usr13: wasn't sure what else is there in xorg.conf, so usually i'd like to keep a backup of anything that i modify with root permission
[09:33] <usr13> theevilone: Do you see files there?
[09:33] <theevilone> no such direcoty
[09:34] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: hmm, you could try some public dns servers but have you rebooted your router
[09:34] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: http://www.tech-faq.com/public-dns-servers.shtml
[09:34] <usr13> theevilone: ls /media/disk-2/etc/X11/xorg*
[09:34] <mehedi> does KDE files can be installed in Gnome?
[09:34] <usr13> theevilone: Do you see files there?
[09:34] <Beefcaked> can someone help me find drivers for a webcam with this hex? 054c:01bb
[09:34] <JonathanEllis> ActionParsnip: No I havent rebooted my router but the router is working as my desktop is connected to it, which is how I am talking to you
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> Beefcaked: http://www.linux.it/~malattia/wiki/index.php/Vaio_VGN-SZ72B#Camera
[09:35] <Flannel> mehedi: You can yes.  It'll have a bit more overheard because you'll have to have the kde libs in memory as well as the gnome libs (when you're running a kde app) but it'll work just fine
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: gotcha
[09:35] <JonathanEllis> ActionParsnip: Oh and I should have added that the same laptop, running windows connects fine
[09:35] <Beefcaked> ActionParsnip: unfortunately the driver link in that page is dead, both of them
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> Beefcaked: email the maintainer of the wiki
[09:35] <powertool08> JonathanEllis: Just a thought, take a look at the browser preferences and make sure its not trying to connect through a proxy or something
[09:35] <JonathanEllis> ActionParsnip: I have just installed ubuntu on the laptop
[09:36] <theevilone> yea
[09:36] <usr13> theevilone: sudo mv /media/disk-2/etc/X11/xorg.conf /media/disk-2/etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: was going to suggest investigating the output of route
[09:36] <JonathanEllis> powertool08: The browser is fine if I connect via an ethernet cable instead of wifi
[09:36] <usr13> theevilone: all on one line.
[09:36] <theevilone> k
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: you may need to disable to eth0 device to force the traffic over the wifi
[09:36] <theevilone> usr13 well it bled over
[09:36] <mehedi> How can i run web cam in ubuntu?
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> JonathanEllis: or use route to set the default route to use wlan0 (or whatever its called)
[09:37] <ActionParsnip> !webcam | mehedi
[09:37] <usr13> theevilone: Yes
[09:37] <theevilone> usr13: but i did the mv command and it got my command prompt back
[09:37] <Polterge|st> excuse me but would anyone in here be able to help me fix this ? http://pastebin.com/m1b0903d
[09:37] <theevilone> usr13: last command i entered was the mv command after I ran ls and seen files
[09:37] <powertool08> JonathanEllis: Thats probably it. My laptop wifi won't work until I down my eth0 link
[09:37] <Polterge|st> it is for Karmic Koala but I asked in that channel and nobody knew anything about it
