[08:59] <blueeagle> VSpike: Well the GDE blocks, as the answer reads, are there to allow for resizing a volume without unmounting it first.
[08:59] <blueeagle> VSpike: So you did understand it correctly as far as I can tell.
[08:59] <Runamok81> looks like WINE is a NO GO for ActiveSync 4.5
[09:00] <ElijahDuBarryVT> how to understand wich video player use mozilla?
[09:00] <Leonheart> Runamok81: Bad :(
[09:00] <VSpike> blueeagle: does it mean that they are only in use during online resizing?  If you have done an online resize, will they contain important data for ever more?  Or as they are used, do they get taken out of the reserved GDT blocks pile and become something else (inodes or whatever?)
[09:00] <Runamok81> yeah, and to think.  I have to virtualize windows to flash my PPC to run Linux...  Hee hee
[09:01] <VSpike> blueeagle: Actually, I am 99% sure I never grew that FS so I can probably assume they are dead space :)
[09:02] <blueeagle> VSpike: The way I would do this is to have this reserve availible at all times except during a resize operation. This is, if I understand it correctly, a temporary location where the resizer moves data while changing the structures. After a resize operation is complete these blocks ought to be cleared.
[09:02] <VSpike> blueeagle: that would be my guess too
[09:02] <macv1>  hi all.... how can i make file roller open .7z files???
[09:03] <ActionParsnip2> yo yo yo
[09:03] <Leonheart>  macv1: is normal archive manager doesn't fit for it?
[09:03] <Runamok81> macvl... it should work by default
[09:03] <Runamok81> are .7z files associated to file roller?
[09:04] <Leonheart> pick on "open with other application"
[09:04] <blueeagle> macv1: Did you try "file -> open" and open the file in file roller?
[09:05] <blueeagle> macv1: Are you sure that the archive is not corrupt?
[09:05] <ActionParsnip2> macv1: sudo apt-get install p7zip; p7zip -d /path/to/stuff.7z
[09:06] <Runamok81> Current Setup:  Ubuntu 8.04, Virtualizing Windows XP SP3 via VirtualBox 1.6.2
[09:07] <Runamok81> FTP is crippled on the guest OS
[09:07] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: server or client?
[09:08] <Runamok81> FTP D/L's through Windows XP are crippled
[09:08] <blueeagle> Runamok81: Is the hardware you're running this setup on up-to-date?
[09:08] <Runamok81> sure, as of a month ago
[09:08] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: is crippled synonymous with slow?
[09:08] <Runamok81> yes, parsoin
[09:08] <Runamok81> parsnip
[09:08] <Runamok81> ridiculously slow
[09:08] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: ok so you are connecting to FTP servers with what application?
[09:08] <Runamok81> but still functional
[09:09] <blueeagle> Runamok81: Is FTP the only affected protocol or is all network communication slow?
[09:09] <Runamok81> no, so far only FTP
[09:09] <blueeagle> Runamok81: Did you try transfering from that ftp server with the host os?
[09:09] <Runamok81> the application attempting to connect is called BuildOS.. it uses FTP to update the program
[09:09] <blueeagle> Runamok81: (ie. to determine that there's not a choke on the way to the ftp server)
[09:10] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: maybe its a config in there
[09:10] <Runamok81> gotcha
[09:10] <Runamok81> don't have ftp program installed in Ubuntu... one sec
[09:10] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: you do, its called ftp
[09:11] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: dpkg -l | grep ftp
[09:11] <blueeagle> Runamok81: ftp<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[09:11] <Rhonda> I got notified through a PTS derivate subscription in Debian about a change to the irssi package and thus found https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit
[09:11] <Rhonda> ... and it makes me wonder, is that really a freenode-only related problem?
[09:12] <Rhonda> If not, why aren't there hints given for other networks? Would switching to port 7000 work for OFTC? And ... isn't that workarounds causing more problems for the general users and firewall admins?
[09:12] <digdug> I have an application I'm running in wine; if I launch it from a terminal window, I get a bunch of "file not found" errors displayed to the standard output; is there a way for me to trace/debug or whatever to try to see what files this application is attempting to access?
[09:12] <Runamok81> $ dpkg -l | grep ftp  return an installed client...
[09:12] <digdug> an easy way*
[09:12] <Runamok81> one sec
[09:12] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: yes, think about what the command says
[09:13] <steve_> how do to make Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless work in hardy 8.04?
[09:14] <Runamok81> <--- is messing with FTP
[09:14] <ActionParsnip2> steve_: restricted driver modules or madwifi-tools i believe
[09:14] <steve_> <ActionParsnip2: thanks
[09:15] <fluid> so when im installing ubuntu, is there a way to make it so that it will use 800x600 as the resolution by default when it boots X from the cd at the first boot prompt? im losing it after X starts :(
[09:15] <ActionParsnip2> steve_: use wired til you get fully updated and drivered up
[09:15] <Runamok81> hmmm no way to determine the ftp server being used inside Windows XP...
[09:15] <Runamok81> netstat returns all TCP connections to the virtual
[09:16] <ActionParsnip2> fluid: you need to set it in xorg.conf and you may need to install your graphics drivers
[09:16] <Runamok81> FTP is crippled on the guest OS
[09:16] <fluid> i cant rightfully do that when booting from teh cd
[09:16] <blueeagle> fluid: VGA safe mode is an option at boot iirc.
[09:16] <macvr> guys i got disconnected.... any ideas on .7z file?
[09:16] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: so the guest OS is running an ftp server which you are connecting to from another PC?
[09:17] <Runamok81> are .7z files associated to file roller?
[09:17] <blueeagle> macvr: Have you tried file->open from fileroller?
[09:17] <Runamok81> correct...
[09:17] <blueeagle> macvr: Are you sure your archive is not corrupt?
[09:17] <fluid> i also tried the "safe graphics mode" and that didnt work either.
[09:17] <ActionParsnip2> macvr: sudo apt-get install p7zip; p7zip -d /path/to/stuff.7z
[09:17] <ActionParsnip2> fluid: you absolutely can
[09:17] <blueeagle> macvr: Have you tried the p7zip application?
[09:17] <Runamok81> one sec.. let me clarify parsnip
[09:17] <fluid> hmm
[09:17] <fluid> hang on a sec.
[09:17] <Runamok81> Current Setup:  Ubuntu 8.04, Virtualizing Windows XP SP3 via VirtualBox 1.6.2
[09:18] <Runamok81> I'm running a windows program attempting to update via FTP
[09:18] <macvr> ActionParsnip2:  there is no such archive
[09:18] <iamwho> how do i share stuffs between my xp (host) and linux (guest) on my vmware
 i loaded madwifi, how do i use it?
[09:18] <ActionParsnip2> macvr: you change the /path/to/stuff.7z to YOUR file
[09:18] <blueeagle> macvr: You did change /path/to/stuff.7z to the actual path to your archive, didn't you?
[09:19] <macvr> ActionParsnip2:  oops
[09:19] <Runamok81> FTP is riduculously slow, ONLY on guest OS
[09:19] <ActionParsnip2> steve_: it gives drivers and tools for stuff, look in your menus, you may need a reboot
[09:19] <ActionParsnip2> macvr: i have no way of knowing where the file is do I. I assumed you'd replace the path
[09:20] <Leonheart>  iamwho: use shared document folder
[09:20] <blueeagle> Runamok81: MTU might be causing head aches.
[09:20] <iamwho> ok i did
[09:20] <iamwho> but i cant get it to work
[09:20] <blueeagle> Runamok81: Did you try another ftp client in the guest os or just the one?
[09:20] <iamwho> i shared a folder in c:
[09:20] <Runamok81> what should I adjust to?  I have access to my Wireless router
[09:20] <iamwho> enbaled it in vmware
[09:20] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: do ftp transfers run slow from all servers, or just that one??
[09:20] <iamwho> how do i mount the hgfs ?
[09:21] <Leonheart>  iamwho: the another way is use flash usb drive for it
[09:21] <fluid> the screen in my laptop is messed up (video is always corrupt). so i use it running s-video to a television (its a media pc anyway)... it boots, i can switch to s-video and watch it boot, but as soon as X starts it switches back to the messed up lcd, and will not switch back to svideo. im assuming its because of the resolution.
[09:21] <Runamok81> all FTP transfers are slow inside the guest OS ONLY
[09:21] <Leonheart> but it need replug :P
[09:21] <AdvoWork> is there any way in ubuntu, to have say a folder (which is a folder on my ftp site) so that i can just drag and drop across the file system?
[09:21] <Runamok81> from multiple servers
[09:21] <macvr> ActionParsnip2: i didnt realize the command fully.... ok it works... but password protected... how do i add the password?[i know the password]
[09:21] <ikonia> Runamok81 guess OS is brdiging out of the host, and your using wirless, thats just a limiting factor of how virtualization can effect you
[09:21] <ikonia> Runamok81: I meant guest
[09:22] <Runamok81> hmmm...
[09:22] <ActionParsnip2> macvr: http://www.digipedia.pl/man/p7zip.1.html
[09:23] <blueeagle> Runamok81: Did you try ftp from the XP command line?
[09:23] <ActionParsnip2> macvr: id be more wary what you paste to your terminal, read what people write then not only will you learn but you won't trip over like that
[09:23] <blueeagle> Runamok81: I've seen a few poor ftp clients on windows to know that not all are very well coded.
[09:23] <Runamok81> would a wired connection make a difference?  I'm guessing this was just a protocol issue... whatwith the connection going through a virtualized NIC card... to HOST OS... etc...
[09:23] <ikonia> Runamok81 a wired connection may make a difference as they are easier to bridge in that the interfact hook is simpler
[09:23] <Runamok81> okay thanks blueeagle.. but there is no way to identify the FTP server
[09:24] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: try filezilla in your windows system, it may be a misconfigured app
[09:24] <macvr> ActionParsnip2: i usually read the command... but  was in a hurry so didnt check!!!!
[09:24] <blueeagle> Runamok81: oh, and follow the adviec ActionParsnip2 just gave. Some people find it funny to tell people to run commands that whipe their harddrives.
[09:24] <macvr>  ActionParsnip2:  thank you.... is there a GUI front end for p7zip?
[09:24] <Leonheart> the problem is. I have two PC, so one is for windows and the another is for ubuntu. I have no problem with virtualbox :P
[09:24] <ActionParsnip2> blueeagle: you'd be suprised how many people say "Couldn't find file file.zip" etc
[09:24] <Leonheart> becoz i don't need it :P
[09:24] <kuldeep> Hi TakiTone
[09:25] <blueeagle> ActionParsnip2: And some people are still looking for the "Any" key.
[09:25] <ActionParsnip2> macvr: no idea, i use cli for decompression, guui is too slow
[09:25] <ActionParsnip2> unrar x ./file.rar
[09:25] <ActionParsnip2> unzip file.zip
[09:25] <ActionParsnip2> beats any stupid gui
[09:25] <Runamok81> well, I'm not familiar with FTP command line interactions,  I've always used cuteFTP or other GUI based interfaces
[09:25] <macvr>  ActionParsnip2: .. k... thank you... what to doo noobs like me... got to get away from WINDOZE!!!
[09:26] <thomasite> Hello
[09:26] <blueeagle> ActionParsnip2: you forgot tar x[z|j]vf file.tar.[gz|bz2]
[09:26] <dialman> I can't connect to my windows SMB share from ubuntu. I can ping it. Can't figure out smbclient to connect. Any ideas?
[09:26] <Runamok81> so, for some specific help... from the windows command prompt... how do I determine open FTP connections?
[09:26] <ActionParsnip2> blueeagle: exactly
[09:26] <Runamok81> specifically, the server I'm connected to
[09:26] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: netstat -a
[09:27] <blueeagle> dialman: You haven't set up your smb credentials correctly.
[09:27] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: just like any other OS
[09:27] <Runamok81> tried that
[09:27] <Runamok81> all connections are TCP
[09:27] <thomasite> I have a question. I installed a version of Scilab on my system. Now that there's a newer version of Scilab, I want to uninstall the older one. However, when I looked for scilab using either Synaptic Package Manager or Add/Remove, scilab didn't appear in the list. How do I remove it? Thanks.
[09:27] <Leonheart> is tht firefox can use ftp://
[09:27] <Leonheart> :P
[09:27] <ActionParsnip2> Runamok81: ftp uses tcp
[09:27] <blueeagle> dialman: ie. your local username/password are not automagically transferred to samba username/passwords
[09:27] <ActionParsnip2> tftp uses udp
[09:27] <dialman> SMB share is setup not to need username or password. Eg. from windows I can 'just connect' without a username or password.
[09:28] <Leonheart> seem like we can use apache for share :P
[09:28] <wartalker> how to set the window position at the bottom
[09:28] <Runamok81> think I found her
[09:28] <blueeagle> dialman: Try looking in /etc/samba/smb.conf
[09:28] <ActionParsnip2> dialman: id set a password for security
[09:28] <thomasite> Hi. I'm sorry for repeating this. I have a question. I installed a version of Scilab on my system. Now that there's a newer version of Scilab, I want to uninstall the older one. However, when I looked for scilab using either Synaptic Package Manager or Add/Remove, scilab didn't appear in the list. How do I remove it? Thanks.
[09:29] <ActionParsnip2> dialman: did you sudo smbpasswd <your username>
[09:29] <ActionParsnip2> thomasite: sudo dpkg -r scilab
[09:29] <digdug> I need to serve a java webapp, what web server is recommended?
[09:30] <blueeagle> thomasite: Usually, when upgrading you just need to install the new version and it will upgrade automagically. I assume you've tried that and Scilab is an exception to this rule. :)
[09:30] <wartalker> there is Always On Top, is there Always At Bottom?
[09:30] <ActionParsnip2> !apache | digdug
[09:30] <digdug> actionparsnip2: does apache support java webapps out of the box?
[09:30] <thomasite> Thanks, I'll try your suggestions. :)
[09:30] <IntuitiveNipple> digdug: Tomcat, maybe?
[09:31] <blueeagle> wartalker: Not as far as I know, but I do see that sometimes that can be useful. You should try posting a feature request to the developers of the window manager you're using (gnome, xfce or kde)
[09:31] <blueeagle> wartalker: What exactly are you trying to pin to the bottom?
[09:32] <ActionParsnip2> digdug: no idea, id imagine not but id see it as a configurable item. I doubt very little works out of the box
[09:33] <IntuitiveNipple> digdug: If you want to run tomcat behind apache, use the JK connector
[09:33] <thomasite> I tried "sudo dpkg -r scilab" but it didn't work. I got this message: dpkg - warning: ignoring request to remove scilab which isn't installed.
[09:33] <wartalker> blueeagle: my terminal is transparent, i want to it is at the bottom
[09:34] <ActionParsnip2> thomasite: then its not installed
[09:34] <blueeagle> thomasite: how did you install scilab?
[09:34] <neoprog> Hello
[09:34] <Leonheart1> geeh. stupid modem cable :(
[09:34] <blueeagle> !hello
[09:34] <ActionParsnip2> thomasite: did you just copy binarys to a location or did you use a .deb or source
[09:35] <Leonheart1> again... my ghost
[09:35] <neoprog> i have a probleme whit kvm : when i lauch my vm the color of screen is bad
[09:35] <Xcerca> is there a channel for programing with ubuntu ?
[09:35] <Xcerca> or just programing in linux ?
[09:35] <blueeagle> Xcerca: That depends on the language in which you want to develop applications in.
[09:35] <Xcerca> c++
[09:35] <thomasite> I have it in my laptop. I followed the instructions on the Scilab website. I used tar xfz scilab....
[09:35] <ActionParsnip2> Xcerca: try #c++
[09:35] <blueeagle> Xcerca: Did you try #c++
[09:35] <thomasite> It's a binary
[09:36] <Xcerca> no but now i am , thanks
[09:36] <tyberion> Hello, anybody know whether theres something like CoverSutra (MAC) for Linux?
[09:36] <blueeagle> thomasite: Then you just need to delete the directory in which it was extracted to.
[09:37] <blueeagle> tyberion: What does Conversutra do?
[09:37] <ActionParsnip2> thomasite: then simply delete the folder you run scilab from and extract the new one to the same place
[09:37] <blueeagle> tyberion: IM clients that are populare are pidgin (gtk) and kopete (qt).
[09:37] <thomasite> Okay. Thanks. :)
[09:38] <ActionParsnip2> !im
[09:38] <ActionParsnip2> !kopete
[09:39] <blueeagle> thomasite: amarok support global shortcuts me thinks.
[09:39] <blueeagle> thomasite: But it might require kde for the global shortcuts to work.
[09:39] <blueeagle> !amarok
[09:40] <Leonheart1> !totem
[09:40] <Leonheart1> :P
[09:40] <blueeagle> thanks lion. That was what I was trying to get. :)
[09:40] <ActionParsnip2> amarok can also have an XUL controller so you can control playback via firefox (as it needs XUL which IE doesnt do0
[09:40] <paul68> Goodmorning how can I check that my php is running correctly and how to access php over my browser
[09:40] <blueeagle> why is xmms in that list? THat project is dead long time ago.
[09:41] <ActionParsnip2> paul68: http://localhost<some stuff here> id imagine
[09:41] <ActionParsnip2> !xmms > blueeagle
[09:41] <blueeagle> ActionParsnip2: Still it's listed with !totem.
[09:42] <Leonheart1> !mplayer
[09:42] <ActionParsnip2> blueeagle: send a new definition to ubottu so they change it
[09:42] <ActionParsnip2> mplayer is fantastic
[09:42] <blueeagle> ActionParsnip2: Agreed.
[09:42] <paul68> ActionParsnip2: when I do that I get "it Works" where are the files locally stored
[09:42] <ActionParsnip2> paul68: thats the test screen
[09:43] <ActionParsnip2> paul68: have you coded any php yet?
[09:43] <blueeagle> paul68: If you get "It works" then it probably works.
[09:43] <ActionParsnip2> paul68: thats the webserver test page
[09:43] <paul68> ActionParsnip2: yes I did but only under windows and not yet under linux
[09:44] <digdug> I installed tomcat6 using synaptic, and the tomcat server is installed and running on localhost:8080 without me needing to do anything, very nice
[09:44] <digdug> now to see if I can get this webapp installed
[09:44] <ActionParsnip2> paul68: then how can you test something you havent created yet? You need to get access to the php scripts so they can be displayed
[09:44] <ActionParsnip2> digdug: firefox http://localhost:8080
[09:45] <blueeagle> paul68: Personally I prefer to use quanta when developing php. However there are plenty of other editors out there and many people claim some are better than the rest. In the end it's a matter of taste and what you feel comfortable with.
[09:45] <blueeagle> paul68: Just thought you'd might like to know. ;)

[09:52] <ActionParsnip> i use thunderbird as it knows the weird googlemail stuff, I share the folder across my LAN so all my thunderbirds can read and update the same profile folder
[09:52] <blueeagle> zoom_b: shoot
[09:52] <zoom_b> and I can`t get the soundcard running
[09:52] <ActionParsnip> zoom_b: what soundcard?
[09:53] <blueeagle> zoom_b: Have you checked that your speakers aren't just muted?
[09:53] <zoom_b> it`s pretty much my first linux so I have no idea what to do
[09:53] <zoom_b> no, no mute
[09:53] <ActionParsnip> zoom_b: lspci
[09:53] <blueeagle> zoom_b: do you know how to open a terminal yet?
[09:53] <zoom_b> yeah
[09:53] <zoom_b> I do
[09:53] <zoom_b> momnet
[09:53] <blueeagle> zoom_b: try running alsamixer
[09:53] <ActionParsnip> read the screen, one line will be your soundcard, paste ONLY that line in here
[09:53] <zoom_b> I got right nex to me
[09:53] <blueeagle> zoom_b: then check if master and PCM are muted or set at 0 volume.
[09:53] <Leonheart1> maybe ur sound card is not supported
[09:54] <Leonheart1> the driver
[09:54] <blueeagle> zoom_b: to toggle mute/unmute press the [M] key.
[09:54] <zoom_b> 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia
[09:54] <zoom_b> thats the soundcard
[09:54] <Kartagis> how do i know if real time clock function is supported by my kernel?
[09:54] <ActionParsnip> ok cool, lets get websearching
[09:55] <Leonheart1> If you go out and find save to system clock. then tht not realtime clock (maybe)
[09:55] <blueeagle> zoom_b: So both master and PCM channels are unmuted and has got the volume turned up?
[09:55] <Leonheart1> when shut down
[09:55] <zoom_b> yup
[09:55] <manish_> what are the alternatives for thunder bird as good as it
[09:55] <manish_> hello how do i use ipod with kubuntu
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> !ipod | manish
[09:55] <blueeagle> zoom_b: Ok, we'll have to wait until ActionParsnip gets done seaching the web then. :)
[09:55] <manish_> is there some way to use it
[09:56] <zoom_b> thx
[09:56] <joth> Whenever I try to play a YouTube video on Firefox, it freezes after a couple of seconds. No sound either. Any help would be much appreciated.
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> zoom_b: http://www.datanorth.net/~cuervo/blog/linux-on-the-satellite-a215-s7407/ there is an audio section near the top detailing how to set up your soundcard
[09:56] <blueeagle> ActionParsnip: You do realize that I just told people that you were my biatch, don't you? :p hehe
[09:56] <ikonia> joth how did you install flash ?
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> blueeagle: if you want ;)
[09:56] <manish_> hello
[09:56] <joth> I don't remember installing it
[09:56] <zoom_b> ok, on it ;)
[09:56] <ikonia> joth: install the package flashplugin-nonfree, and restart firefox
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> manish_: they all have advantages, id try a few
[09:57] <joth> I'll try that, thanks!
[09:57] <joth> Hmm...it's already installed
[09:58] <ikonia> joth: ah so it is installed
[09:58] <manish_> can i use ipod with kubuntu
[09:58] <ikonia> joth: is it any flash sites, or just videos
[09:59] <ikonia> manish_: yes
[10:00] <blueeagle> manish_: google for: kubuntu ipod
[10:00] <blueeagle> manish_: You should find http://swik.net/Kubuntu+ipod which appears to be helpful.
[10:00] <joth> Other flash sites are a bit jerky, and still have no sound, but they don't freeze altogether.
[10:02] <thesaltydog> this morning's hardy update has broken the language pack in Firefox. Now I have everything back in english instead of italian
[10:02] <Leonheart1> can just ubuntu have dev package CD :-D
[10:02] <joth> Everything used to work fine - I suspect a recent update broke things.
[10:03] <blueeagle> manish_: make that http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/07/04/how-to-use-amarok-to-manage-your-ipod-in-ubuntu/
[10:04] <NET||abuse> hey guys. I had a setup before where if i held down the Alt+Mouse3 it resized the current window with the mouse, irespective of the mouse location.
[10:04] <NET||abuse> How can i set that up on this machine?
[10:06] <blueeagle> manish_: Oh, and if you want to see something cool. Pop in an audio cd and open it in konqueror. You'll see that konqueror provides mp3, flac and ogg folders where you can just drag and drop files to rip them. ;)
[10:07] <okidogi> hi,how can i make firefox3 the default brower while not firefox2?
[10:07] <Leonheart1> and if u need place too place coffen or beer. u can use that CD Lid too :P
[10:08] <blueeagle> NET||abuse: kde does that by default.
[10:08] <paul68> blueeagle: a question about quanta is there a way to directly set the editor as php standard
[10:09] <blueeagle> paul68: So that it uses php highlighting by default?
[10:09] <Leonheart1> !yakuake
[10:09] <okidogi> it happens when i click on a href, firefox2 , it's bothering.
[10:09] <paul68> blueeagle: yes please
[10:09] <shone> @okidogi try this: system > preferences > custom > "firefox-3.0"
[10:09] <blueeagle> paul68: looking into it
[10:10] <okidogi> shone: no custom menu
[10:11] <shone> @okidogi the drop-down menu, choose custom instead of firefox
[10:12] <shone> @okidogi then youll be able to type in the command you want the system to perform when you click on a link
[10:13] <okidogi> shone: i fowllowed this: system>preference but no custum
[10:13] <shone> @okidogi sry
[10:13] <hanak> whats the linux host key?
[10:13] <shone> @okidogi its on the internet tab
[10:13] <shone> @okidogi under web browser heading
[10:14] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[10:14] <jianfei> lol
[10:14] <okidogi> shone: i see...
[10:14] <paul68> blueeagle: I see under highlighting php however after restarting it comes back to html
[10:14] <hanak> !hostkey
[10:14] <Leonheart1> oh noooo
[10:14] <shone> @okidogi ok so instead firefox choose 'custom'
[10:15] <trilobit`> whoa!
[10:16] <Leonheart1> !geany
[10:16] <kremsner> hy there, I am searching for a Screensaver, like the one in MacOSX, the one which takes the Pictures of your Favorite folder and recreates a picture, anyone know something like that?
[10:16] <okidogi> shone: it's system->preference-> and then prefered applications
[10:16] <okidogi> shone: 3x :)
[10:16] <paul68> blueeagle: I see under highlighting php however after restarting it comes back to html
[10:17] <blueeagle> paul68: I am looking into making a template load by default, but it's not as easy as I think it should be.
[10:17] <Leonheart1> !geany
[10:18] <blueeagle> paul68: I'll write a feature request to the quanta devs so we might see a "default highlight" along with the default indentation style in the "configure editor" window.
[10:18] <Leonheart1> is Geany is syntax highlighting
[10:18] <Leonheart1> and IDE for compiler of course :P
[10:19] <trilobit`> It is said that you can install debian .deb packages in ubuntu. How far does such truth go ?
[10:19] <paul68> blueeagle: thanks  you can notify me through paulus4605 gmail.com
[10:19] <Leonheart1> It use the same debian core of course :P
[10:20] <trilobit`> Leonheart1: true that, but still I'd expect certain dependency issues when it comes to package namings.
[10:21] <Leonheart1> I hate download the depedency. gaaahh....
[10:21] <Leonheart1> i'm offline man :P
[10:22] <shone> anybody know how to open .ram files without helix player ?
[10:23] <trilobit`> shone: would that be as opening text files without an editor ?
[10:23] <jmv> Bonjour
[10:23] <ghaleb> hello, how can I record each keystroke on my ssh connections ?
[10:23] <shone> @trilobit' helix droped dead when i set up pulseaudio
[10:24] <jmv> Est ce que qqu'un parle français ?
[10:24] <shone> @trilobit' isnt there any other way to play the thing
[10:24] <jmv> OK, bye
[10:25] <trilobit`> shone: I don't use .ram files much. I'll have to search for it if you like.
[10:25] <abby87> !fr
[10:25] <shone> @trilobit' i dont either, just need to open one radio stream
[10:25] <shone> @trilobit' ill be here for some time
[10:25] <abby87> !fr | jmv
[10:26] <shone> @trilobit' if you find something interesting let me know tnx :)
[10:29] <peter771> I want to upgrade alsa to the latest version and also make it visible in synaptic making it easier to remove should it go horribly wrong, I am using Ubuntu Gutsy
[10:29] <peter771> how should I go about doing this?
[10:30] <Leonheart1> does it better upgrade to hardy :?
[10:31] <scuser> hi all, I'm using ubuntu 8.04, I've been trying to login to the system where the information about the user is saved in ldap db and the authentication is via kerberos; I've watched the auth.log on the server, the user was granted a ticket but the user didn't login as it can't find the information on the server, how can I solve this problem
[10:32] <suns> salve
[10:32] <suns> i'm italian
[10:32] <suns> where i can speak about amule?
[10:32] <Leonheart1> !amule
[10:33] <suns> !amule
[10:33] <paul68> blueeagle: thanks  you can notify me through paulus4605 gmail.com
[10:34] <meek> hi
[10:34] <meek> anyone need help?
[10:34] <Leonheart1> maybe
[10:34] <ikonia> many people, if you hang around people will ask questions
[10:35] <meek> righteeo
[10:35] <Leonheart1> help! i need some money. :P
[10:35] <meek> i know that game
[10:35] <Leonheart1> can u gimme ?
[10:35] <shone> heres (a dumb) one: can i open ram files without helix player?
[10:35] <Caveman> meek: wow, strange to get someone asking if anyone has questions!!
[10:36] <meek> Caveman: I try.. hehe
[10:36] <Leonheart1> he wanna help. he don't need question
[10:36] <meek> Caveman: im in #windows too
[10:36] <Caveman> lol
[10:36] <Caveman> fun fun!
[10:36] <scuser> hi all, I've added the necessary lines to common-account and added ldap to nsswitch.conf but there were no response for the ldap user
[10:36] <meek> boredom lol
[10:36] <strange> hah meek from efnet? (#divx-classics a few years ago) ?
[10:36] <Leonheart1> and I'm in DOS 32-bit
[10:36] <Caveman> although I work wiht windows 9 to 5
[10:36] <Caveman> hah
[10:37] <ikonia> scuser you need to change the resolution order to "ldap" files rather than files
[10:37] <meek> strange: no i dont think that was me
[10:37] <paul68> Caveman: windows 95 lol
[10:37] <meek> ha yes
[10:37] <peter771> does anyone know how to install the latest version of alsa instead of the one in the repository?
[10:37] <ikonia> peter771 why do you need it ?
[10:38] <ikonia> peter771: changing the alsa version can have serious effects on your system
[10:38] <scuser> ikonia: yes, through nsswitch.conf I added passwd: files ldap, and the same for group and shadow, does this mean that the info in db is unreachable or incorrect ?
[10:38] <Leonheart1> salsa with alsa
[10:38] <ikonia> scuser that means it will use files before ldap
[10:38] <strange> meek: i still think it was something about a dolphin church springs to mind when i see your nick :P
[10:38] <ikonia> !offtopic
[10:39] <scuser> ikonia: I've tried it as ldap then files and the same happens, the user takes the ticket but it never logs in
[10:39] <peter771> ikonia, the latest version used in intrepid includes a fix for my sound card however I don't want to upgrade to intrepid as 8.04 causes serious system freezes
[10:40] <ikonia> scuser from the client can you query the ldap directory
[10:40] <ikonia> peter771 I see, have you considered waiting for a backport, or contactng the alsa-ubuntu maintainers to query a backport ?
[10:41] <peter771> ikonia: so its not possible otherwise to compile alsa 1.0.17 to work with the gutsy kernel?
[10:41] <scuser> ikonia: sure through ldapsearch
[10:42] <ikonia> peter771: it is possible, it just can have seiours effects as sound is a pretty "linked" component to the desktop
[10:42] <ikonia> scuser: so from the client you can query the server using ldap search and see the user details your trying to login as ?
[10:43] <Leonheart1> im-death.a
[10:43] <peter771> ikonia, I know I've tried the howto's on the forums before with negative consequences which is why I wondered if an entry could be made in synaptic making it easy to revert back to the current version of alsa in the gutsy repo
[10:43] <scuser> ikonia: the results are shown on the terminal, but the strange thing is that the debug log on the server produces permission denied to open berkely db, but I can see the user details
[10:44] <ikonia> peter771 thats why I said contact the maintainer for a backport
[10:44] <Caveman> help
[10:44] <ikonia> scuser ok - have you checked your binding user credentials ?
[10:44] <Leonheart1> canonical claim there is 8 Million Ubuntu user
[10:44] <ikonia> Caveman: what's the issue
[10:44] <ikonia> Leonheart1: please stop with offtopic noise
[10:45] <Leonheart1> <Just info>
[10:45] <scuser> ikonia: what is the binding user credentials ? kerberos tickets or what ?
[10:45] <ikonia> Leonheart1 no - offtopic noise
[10:45] <Caveman> ikonia: oh my bad,, I forgot a / haha
[10:45] <ikonia> scuser when your querying ldap from the command line your binding as you, who have you set up the "system" to bind as ?
[10:46] <Caveman> trying to learn how to use ircii client
[10:46] <Caveman> its killing me!!
[10:46] <Caveman> lol
[10:46] <Caveman> but I'm sure i'll get used to it
[10:46] <ikonia> Caveman not to worry
[10:46] <Dudema1> Is there a way to get nautilus to open some other folder instead of the home folder by default?
[10:46] <Dudema1> i.e. open ~/Documents instead of the home folder at startup?
[10:46] <ikonia> Dudema1 I think there is a gconf setting for that
[10:47] <scuser> ikonia: sorry can't get you
[10:47] <Leonheart1> yeah. maybe just nake new panel will goog
[10:47] <Dudema1> how does one open up gconf again?
[10:48] <ikonia> Dudema1 gconfeditor
[10:48] <Leonheart1> never do it before though
[10:48] <ikonia> scuser your slapd.conf on your client machine, who are you binding as
[10:49] <Dudema1> nothing, ikonia
[10:49] <ikonia> Dudema1v search the package manager for gconf editor
[10:49] <ikonia> Dudema1 sorry that was for you
[10:49] <scuser> ikonia: slapd.conf is only on the server not on the client machine
[10:49] <Dudema1> ikonia: ah
[10:49] <apolo> bonjour mr
[10:49] <ikonia> scuser I thought you had to have one on the client to specify which server you needed to bind to
[10:49] <legend2440> Dudema1: gconf-editor
[10:50] <Dudema1> legend2440: there we go
[10:50] <iceman> hi guys ! I'm trying to make my DVI output work on my laptop running Hardy. Do you have any pointers on how to do that?
[10:50] <Dudema1> iceman: would you be from the uplink community by any chance?
[10:50] <ikonia> iceman plug the monitor in and open the screen resolultion appliction
[10:51] <scuser> ikonia: you mean ldap.conf, here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/55222/
[10:51] <ikonia> scuser: ahh thats it - thank you
[10:51] <iceman> Dudema1: hum, I have been part of ubuntu-be for some time, but now I'm concentrating on my thesis, so I'm not as involved as before
[10:51] <ikonia> scuser arn't you missing a user in there
[10:52] <scuser> ikonia: which user ?
[10:52] <ikonia> scuser: one moment, let me see if I can get access to my ldap config
[10:52] <iceman> Dudema1: but I'm not quite sure what you mean by "upstream community"
[10:53] <Dudema1> iceman: I said uplink community, not upstream community
[10:53] <Heimatlos22> halo
[10:53] <Heimatlos22> valaki magyarul?
[10:53] <Dudema1> iceman: no matter, I mistook you for someone else.
[10:53] <iceman> ikonia: I have already tried to do that, but it only shows a "unknown screen", and seems to do nothing when I click "detect screens"
[10:53] <iceman> Dudema1: okay ^^
[10:53] <cableroy> i got a problem playing mp3, it has been working before but here is the problem. mplayer file.mp3 don't work no error but don't play, mpg123 don't work, rhythmbox don't work, xmms works but doesn't skip to next song after one is finished.. suggestions?
[10:55] <mgolisch> cableroy: mostlikely its some problem with your output plugin
[10:55] <mgolisch> like you selected pulseaudio but no pulseaudio server is running
[10:56] <cableroy> mgolisch: ok, i'll take a look at it
[10:57] <stanman1> hi, anyone have ubuntu 8.04 server running?
[10:58] <ikonia> yup
[10:58] <stanman1> ..and openvz?
[10:58] <ikonia> nope
[10:58] <stanman1> darn...
[10:58] <stanman1> anyone using openvz?
[10:59] <Leonheart1> !openvz
[10:59] <iceman> ikonia: do you know more about making the DVI output work? as I said the screen resolution application doesn't seem to detect my LCD screen...
[10:59] <blueeagle> paul68: The simplest workaround is to just save the file as myfile.php and then it will change highlighting autmagically.
[10:59] <Leonheart1> me too
[11:00] <ikonia> iceman then you have to hardcode it in xorg
[11:00] <murlidhar> !info openvz
[11:00] <murlidhar> !info openvz | stanman1
[11:01] <iceman> ikonia: and I'm guessing it isn't possible to hardcode the fact that it should use the LCD screen if it's connected and the laptop screen otherwise...
[11:01] <ikonia> iceman no, no you should be able to hardcode it
[11:01] <ikonia> iceman: what video card do you have in the laptop
[11:02] <iceman> it's an intel chip
[11:02] <ikonia> don't see that as being a problem
[11:02] <ikonia> !dualhead
[11:02] <ikonia> there you ho
[11:02] <ikonia> go
[11:02] <FloodBot1> ikonia: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:04] <iceman> ikonia: I'm not really planning on using both screens at once. I just want to be able to use the DVI output when I plug it in
[11:04] <scuser> ikonia: hey any new ideas?
[11:05] <iceman> I thought that sort of things would work automagically now...
[11:05] <ikonia> scuser: just reading my configs now
[11:05] <blak> How do you know that ntp is actually working correctly? mine is always at 0 across the board when i do ntpq -plist
[11:05] <iceman> especially as it works when I use my DVI to VGA adapter
[11:06] <ikonia> iceman: doesn't you laptop have a function key sequnce to swap to dvi/vga out ?
[11:06] <scuser> konia: ok can I see it if it's ok?
[11:06] <ikonia> scuser just checking there is nothing serious in it before displaying
[11:06] <iceman> ikonia: yep, and it works fine when I use my DVI to VGA adapter, but not when I directly plug a DVI cable in
[11:06] <ikonia> iceman sounds like a bug
[11:07] <scuser> ok
[11:07] <ikonia> scuser well one thing I can tell you is that my ldap.cofn file which includes kerberos is MUCH bigger than yours
[11:07] <iceman> ikonia: ok, where should I report this?
[11:07] <ikonia> iceman launchpad
[11:08] <iceman> ikonia: that, I know. what package? xorg?
[11:08] <ikonia> iceman gnome-desktop
[11:08] <scuser> ikonia I'll show you another one that may be the one you need as there are 2 ldap.conf files and we don't know which one is used
[11:08] <ikonia> scuser /etc/ldap.conf and /etc/openldap/ldap.conf ;)
[11:08] <quentusrex> Hello. I have an apache server. The host name is set properly, but the domain isn't. How do I change the domain that apache believes references to my server?
[11:09] <ikonia> quentusrex use the ServerName directive
[11:09] <blak> How do you know that ntp is actually working correctly? mine is always at 0 across the board when i do ntpq -plist
[11:09] <quentusrex> how?
[11:09] <scuser> ikonia : yes
[11:09] <ikonia> blak: stop ntp for 2 minutes, then do an ntpdate and see what the drift is
[11:09] <ikonia> quentusrex edit the config file and change the ServerName directive to your FQDN
[11:09] <blak> ikonia how do i stop it?
[11:10] <ikonia> blak use the init script
[11:10] <rdx> Anyone here know anything about ubuntustudios rt-kernel and nvidia drivers?
[11:10] <blak> if i do ntpdate it says  no servers can be used, exiting
[11:10] <ikonia> scuser my config is going to be quite different to yours, for some reason (I don't know why) I've got the ldap servers bind details in kerberos
[11:10] <ikonia> blak you have to specify a time server to sync against
[11:11] <blak> i have the gnome time applet supposedly syncing...
[11:11] <charley_Brown> hello everyone!
[11:11] <ikonia> blak not what I suggested
[11:11] <scuser> ikonia: how?
[11:11] <ikonia> scuser a good question, this isn't mysetup
[11:11] <trav> I have an ubuntu 7.04 cd, and a computer that's not on the net... yet
[11:11] <trav> if I install 7.04 on it, and connect it, will it be able to jump straight to 8?
[11:11] <scuser> ikonia: please If you can let me see it please
[11:12] <trav> or will it freak out and require big downloads?
[11:12] <ikonia> scuser I'v asked, waiting for them to confirm it's fine
[11:12] <ikonia> scuser: also trying to get access to "my" configs which are more simple
[11:12] <scuser> ikonia: ok
[11:12] <ikonia> trav it will require big downloads
[11:12] <ikonia> trav: you may find it easier to just download 8.04 and do an install
[11:12] <trav> hmm
[11:12] <blak> where is this init and how do i use it ikonia?
[11:12] <trav> yeah, I was thinking that
[11:12] <ikonia> blak /etc/init.d
[11:13] <ikonia> blak: or use update-rc.d
[11:13] <trav> my isp hosts ubuntu on a mirror at http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/ubuntu/ but I can't find the cd image
[11:13] <blueeagle> I am in need of running a script every three hours and one minute (not 1 minute passed every 3rd hour). Does anyone know how that may best be accomplished?
[11:13] <trav> or maybe I can and don't recognise it
[11:13] <blueeagle> ie if it runs at noon then it needs to run at one past three and two passed six.
[11:13] <ikonia> blueeagle put it in cron, 3,6,9,`12,16,20,00
[11:14] <blak> where is update-rc.d located?
[11:14] <blueeagle> ..then at three past nine and four past midnight and five past three.
[11:14] <ikonia> trav they are repo mirrors
[11:15] <ikonia> blueeagle youd have to script that then
[11:15] <trav> so that's different from the cd image then :/
[11:15] <ikonia> trav they are the software repos
[11:15] <charley_Brown> hey! andy of oyu guys has an idea how to get a KDE-Application installed under Ubuntu (gnome). When i do "configure" i get this error: X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!
[11:15] <blueeagle> ikonia: I was afraid of that. :/ And I so love bash scripting. :p
[11:15] <charley_Brown> sorry for the spelling
[11:15] <ikonia> charley_Brown don't build from source
[11:15] <trav> so the packages I see in the package manager go into the url that I posted, so I'm looking in the wrong spot
[11:15] <trav> thanks ikonia
[11:15] <ikonia> charley_Brown what application do you want
[11:15] <charley_Brown> i have only the source
[11:16] <ikonia> trav you got it
[11:16] <ikonia> charley_Brown what's it called
[11:16] <blak> ikonia: where is that last file you reference?
[11:16] <ikonia> blak it's binary
[11:16] <charley_Brown> it's this one: http://www.gantz-edv.de/mlo/kmlofax_e.html
[11:17] <ikonia> trav: http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/releases/8.04/ubuntu-8.04.1-desktop-i386.iso
[11:17] <charley_Brown> i installed buildessential
[11:17] <trav> aha! victory is mine! ftp://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/releases/8.04.1/
[11:17] <userconfused> hi people
[11:18] <ikonia> charley_Brown your going to need a LOT more than that
[11:18] <ikonia> charley_Brown: that package isn't in the repo's either, which is a shame
[11:19] <trav> oh hey,
[11:19] <trav> ikonia you already tole me :P
[11:19] <trav> thanks
[11:19] <lordleemo> charley_Brown: sudo apt-get install kdelibs-dev
[11:19] <trav> s/tole/told
[11:19] <blip-> i just installed a deb package for the latest version of launchy on ubuntu 8.04... it now shows up installed in synaptic,  but running the "launchy" does not bring up any window or anything.
[11:20] <blip-> i simply followed this:  http://phorolinux.com/how-to-install-launchy-on-ubuntu-804-hardy-heron.html
[11:21] <rapha> Hi all!
[11:22] <themidnight1> blip: did it get installed in apps-->acc?
[11:22] <rapha> Is there any chance I can get OpenOffice.org 2.4.1 packages for Dapper Drake AMD64 anywhere?
[11:22] <ikonia> rapha nope
[11:22] <rapha> :-(
[11:22] <ikonia> rapha pretty slim odds on that
[11:22] <rapha> IA32 packages that will somehow run anyways then, ikonia?
[11:22] <charley_Brown> lordleemo: i think i installed that yeasterday already, but let me check...
[11:22] <ikonia> rapha: best bet is to contact the ubuntu package maintainer and request a backport
[11:23] <rapha> ic
[11:23] <rapha> How do I find out who it is?
[11:23] <ikonia> rapha the names are listed on launchpad
[11:23] <rapha> k, thanks ikonia!
[11:23] <blak> ikonia: if i do sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org i get  ntpdate[15742]: no server suitable for synchronization
[11:24] <ikonia> blak check your spelling
[11:24] <ikonia> just worked fie for me
[11:25] <charley_Brown> i installed kdevelop 4:3.5.1 yesterday - is this the same?
[11:25] <blak> i did sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org    exactly
[11:25] <blak> ikonia: do i need to start ntp agian?
[11:25] <ikonia> sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org 8 Oct 11:24:24 ntpdate[22530]: step time server <IP_ADDRESS> offset -33.667354
[11:25] <ikonia> blak no
[11:26] <Ow> cfbnk
[11:26] <ikonia> blak: can you ping pool.ntp.org
[11:26] <blak> ikonia: not started and i do sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org and it gives me tha terror
[11:26] <ikonia> blak can you ping it
[11:26] <blak> ikonia: yes fine
[11:26] <ikonia> blak something on your network (firewall maybe) is blocking ntp then
[11:27] <blak> ikonia: it isn't because i did sudo ntp -stop
[11:27] <ikonia> blak no
[11:27] <ikonia> blak: ps -ef | grep ntp will show that ntp should not be running
[11:28] <blak> its running
[11:28] <ikonia> blak then it shouldn't be
[11:28] <ikonia> blak: I told you to stop it
[11:28] <blak> thought i did lol
[11:28] <charley_Brown>  lordleemo: is waht i installed the same?
[11:29] <blak> * Stopping NTP server ntpd                                                     [ OK ]
[11:29] <charley_Brown>  lordleemo: i tried your apt-get, but it wouldn't work
[11:29] <blak> ok its not ther enow ikonia
[11:29] <lordleemo> charley_Brown: see if you have x-window-system-dev   qt dev   and  kdelibs-dev   installed
[11:30] <charley_Brown> i look in synaptics?
[11:30] <lordleemo> charley_Brown:  look in synaptics
[11:31] <nsprams> Hi folks, when mounting a window share.. i am not able to access.. and the system hangs..
[11:31] <nsprams> can anyone help me.. with this?
[11:31] <ikonia> themidnight1 what are you doing ?
[11:31] <blueeagle> How do I go about starting a php command line script at boot time?
[11:32] <ikonia> blueeagle call the php cli interface in a script
[11:32] <rapha> ikonia: Hey, another question. I kept searching a bit in aptitude, and there is a package 'openoffice.org-ure' listed there, but I can't install it ("No candidate version found for openoffice.org-ure") - any chance I might find that around somewhere for OOo 2.0 AMD64?
[11:32] <ikonia> rapha if you re-read the error you'll find it's telling you the issue
[11:32] <ikonia> "no install candidate availabl3"
[11:32] <blak> ikonia: still getting  ntpdate[16463]: no server suitable for synchronization found
[11:32] <blueeagle> ikonia: Well which script would that be. I've never done any scripts for /etc/init.d before.
[11:33] <ikonia> blak is ntp running
[11:33] <blak> ikonia: its not running
[11:33] <ikonia> blueeagle you need to make a new one, or put it in rc.local
[11:33] <rapha> ikonia: yeah, sure, but why does it then list the package in the first place? Isn't that an indicator that it once existed?
[11:33] <ikonia> blak then as I said earlier something is blocking your server from doing ntp
[11:33] <ikonia> rapha no
[11:33] <rapha> k :-/
[11:34] <nsprams> Hi folks, when mounting a window share.. i am not able to access.. and the system hangs..  can anyone help ?
[11:34] <blak> ikonia: i would only have the defaults blocked from a new instlall of 8.04.1
[11:34] <ikonia> blak router or ISP ?
[11:34] <blueeagle> ikonia: ahh.. googling for rc.local then. :)
[11:34] <rapha> Maybe I'll just try building it myself.
[11:34] <blak> ikonia: oh good call, i actually am behind a router, i forgot, i usually dont use this AP
[11:34] <NET||abuse> blueeagle: kde does it by default, any way to get gnome to do it? referenceing my earlier question about resizing windows with alt+mouse3 and drag
[11:35] <NET||abuse> and I have to simulate mouse3 with holding down left and right click
[11:36] <blueeagle> NET||abuse: I don't use gnome so I wouldn't know, surry.
[11:36] <blueeagle> sorry*
[11:36] <NET||abuse> i've looked in system->prefs->keyboardshortcuts but ther's no way i can see to assign mouse clicks as events
[11:36] <blueeagle> ikonia: Is it cocher to put: "php /path/to/script.php &" into rc.local for a script that will perpetually run?
[11:36] <blueeagle> kosher*
[11:36] <NET||abuse> It was a settings in feisty with compiz i remember, now on fresh hardy install without compiz(vmware) and can't do any window resizing this way anymore :(
[11:37] <ikonia> blueeagle dno't see why not
[11:37] <bastid_raZor> NET||abuse; try the middle click and alt to resize
[11:37] <NET||abuse> bastid_raZor: I've only 2 button mice
[11:37] <bastid_raZor> NET||abuse; by middle. i meant the scroll wheel.. oh...
[11:38] <NET||abuse> bastid_raZor: yeh my mouse wheel doesn't have a click in, so it's not a button,  but holding both buttons should simulate button 3
[11:38] <quantumelixir> Could anyone tell me what the use for a passphrase(while using ssh-keygen) is?
[11:38] <NET||abuse> though maybe my mouse device isn't configured to do this correctly,
[11:38] <NET||abuse> hmm, i have Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true" in xorg.conf
[11:39] <nsprams> Hi folks, when mounting a window share.. i am not able to access.. and the system hangs..  can anyone help ?
[11:39] <NET||abuse> ahhhh, on my track pad it works.. but not on my external usb mouse??
[11:39] <NET||abuse> damnit
[11:40] <ActionParsnip> maybe the trackpad is capturing the 3 button emulation thing (?)
[11:41] <NET||abuse> it seems to be working on track pad, yeh, why wouldn't it follow through to usb mouse?
[11:41] <NET||abuse> fairly standard usb mouse
[11:41] <NET||abuse> i could switch mice in the office later and try other one. s
[11:41] <Samushka> Hello, im practicing how to compile applications from SVN and BZR, it's all going good... one annoyance is having to re-run .autogen and then finding out im missing something, then running it again, something else is missing, etc etc ... is there any way to run autogen to list all the missing packages, so i can just install then in one shot instead of re-running autogen all the time?
[11:41] <NET||abuse> hmm, ok, well i'm one step closer :)
[11:41] <quantumelixir> What is the use for a passphrase(while using ssh-keygen)?
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> quantumelixir: to create a security key for encryption
[11:42] <NET||abuse> quantumelixir: means you don't get to decrypt the content under protection by that key without using that passphrase
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> NET||abuse: id try the 2nd mouse, although 3rd button emulation is on, perhaps the mouse cant send both left and right click signals together
[11:43] <NET||abuse> i sometimes use it to protect my ssh certificated sessions, when you import your public key into the known-hosts file on a remote server, you can login without a password,
[11:43] <blak> ikonia: i bet my university blocks that port
[11:44] <zetheroo-ubuntu> Is there a way to install Windows XP Pro on a machine that only has Ubuntu on it without having to reformat and start from scratch?
[11:44] <ikonia> blak quite possibly
[11:44] <scuser> ikonia: system doesn't contact nsswitch.conf for retrieving users and passwords, how can I configure the system to check nsswitch to get the user info
[11:44] <Oprtz> hi, i have a home LAN network, consisting of 2 computer, 1 is windowsXp and the other is ubuntu 8.04(this machine) i want to access the shared files of my windowsXp and viceversa, can i do this ? if yes how? i dont know abt ubuntu networking
[11:44] <ikonia> zetheroo-ubuntu yes, pre-partition the disk
[11:44] <AMD007> Gedit hangs on my system, what can be the problem??
[11:44] <ikonia> scuser it should use nsswitch.conf
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo-ubuntu: you can resize partitions with gparted, then when you have free space, install xp to that gap
[11:45] <ikonia> !samba > Oprtz
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo-ubuntu: you will need to reinstall grub though as xp will write the bootsector with its own
[11:45] <scuser> ikonia: I disabled the lines passwd, group and shadow and I still can login ?
[11:45] <zetheroo-ubuntu> ActionParsnip : so thats all? ...
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> AMD007: reinstall gedit
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo-ubuntu: yeah
[11:45] <ikonia> scuser disabled ?
[11:45] <NET||abuse> ActionParsnip: yeh, this is one possability, it's a usb dongle to a wireless logitec mouse
[11:45] <ikonia> scuser: define disabled
[11:45] <Oprtz> Ubutto : ok
[11:45] <AMD007> ActionParsnip : i did it
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> AMD007: is there a config file in ~/  ?
[11:45] <Oprtz> ikonia:  i dont know how to install samba
[11:45] <NET||abuse> ActionParsnip: ok, poo to it.
[11:45] <ikonia> Oprtz: read the pm ubottu sent you
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> NET||abuse: logitech doesnt like linux too much
[11:46] <zetheroo-ubuntu> ActionParsnip : but how can I resize the partition when I am booted into it?
[11:46] <quantumelixir> NET||abuse: So if I want to ssh into a computer then should I know a passphrase besides the password?
[11:46] <NET||abuse> ActionParsnip: aww, so annoying
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo-ubuntu: you boot to livecd
[11:46] <zetheroo-ubuntu> ActionParsnip : ok... thanks
[11:46] <Oprtz> ikonia: ok buddy
[11:46] <scuser> ikonia: here is the nsswitch.conf file http://paste.ubuntu.com/55232/
[11:46] <AMD007> ActionParsni : with which filename (config file)
[11:46] <ikonia> scuser commenting them out sets them to default which is "files"
[11:47] <NET||abuse> quantumelixir: well if you have published your rsa key to the remote server into it's known-hosts file, then you don't generally need to provide a password for that system, but then to protect the rsa key used in this process you can just passphrase the key itself, means that you have one password for all systems you login to,
[11:47] <scuser> ikonia: oh, I see
[11:47] <NET||abuse> that prevents physical access to your pc being a problem
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> AMD007: is there one called .gedit
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> AMD007: or .geditrc
[11:48] <AMD007> ActionParsni : no its not available, i did sudo ls -la
[11:48] <NET||abuse> quantumelixir: at least phsyical access to your pc being a BIT less of a security problem anyway..
[11:48] <ActionParsnip> AMD007: basically you need to find where gedit keeps its settings
[11:48] <quantumelixir> NET||abuse: you mean if that computer considers me a known host then I needn't provide password/phrase?
[11:48] <AMD007> ActionParsnip : hmm
[11:48] <ActionParsnip> AMD007: try cd ~/; find -name gedit*
[11:49] <NET||abuse> quantumelixir: so if you ssh into lots of servers, with different root passwords, when you first get access to them, you can publish your ssh-keygen'd key to that server, and not have to remember the root credentials for that server, just your rsa key passphrase
[11:49] <blueeagle> ikonia: It didn't work to run "php scriptname.php &" as it gets stopped when put in background. :/
[11:49] <AMD007> ActionParsnip : ok wait
[11:49] <ikonia> blueeagle nohup it
[11:49] <iceman> my keyboard layout is correct in CLI ttys and in my GNOME session. However, it isn't correct in GDM. How do I change it WITHOUT creating a xorg.conf file?
[11:49] <blueeagle> googling
[11:49] <ikonia> iceman xorg.conf is nothing to do with gdm
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> iceman: you have an xorg.conf file
[11:49] <quantumelixir> NET||abuse: So the passphrase becomes an alias for many root pwds?
[11:50] <NET||abuse> quantumelixir: if you generate your key without a passphrase, then send the key to the remote servers known-hosts file, then when you login with ssh root@remoteserverip it will drop you STRAIGHT to the root prompt, no password
[11:50] <NET||abuse> quantumelixir: kinda :)
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> quantumelixir: id log in as a user with sudo access
[11:50] <NET||abuse> quantumelixir: yeh, more or less, in an inexact metaphore that would be kinda correct
[11:50] <scientus> can i rerun the menu.1st creation script?
[11:50] <scientus> i accidentally deleated my windows line
[11:50] <NET||abuse> quantumelixir: hehe, how do you like that for clarity :)
[11:50] <scuser> ikonia: is there any log file I can trace to see if the client contacts the LDAP server during login or not ?
[11:50] <quantumelixir> NET||abuse: Thanks a lot!
[11:50] <scientus> and i dont want to figure outhow to get it working again
[11:51] <ikonia> scuser snoop the network with tcpdump or either real, see the auth.log on the server,
[11:51] <NET||abuse> quantumelixir: basically you also have to make sure the remote hosts sshd.conf has the allowtrusted hosts settings to be set. ... one sec while I lookup what that directive is though
[11:51] <iceman> ikonia: hum, my layout was correct before, but now that I deleted my xorg.conf, it isn't anymore. If they aren't supposed to be related, this is a bug.
[11:51] <quantumelixir> NET||abuse: About the protocol itself.. we require separate public-private key pairs for each connection right?
[11:52] <ikonia> iceman well in that case you must have forced a language in your xorg
[11:52] <ikonia> iceman why did you delete your xorg
[11:52] <blueeagle> ikonia: Well that helped, but even sleep() in php causes it to use 90+% cpu. :/
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> scientus: i dunno about recretaing, heres the syntax of the file. back it up before you play so you can roll back if you screw up (as you have seen) http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/installation/56461-grub-menu-lst-chainloader-help-needed.html
[11:52] <blueeagle> ikonia: Thanks for the guidance tho. Really appreciated.
[11:52] <iceman> ikonia: to see if the screen auto-detect would work better, and it does !
[11:52] <ikonia> blueeagle php cli stuff normally spikes at startup then settles down - I don't know why
[11:52] <scientus> i dont have a problem with lithe linux lines
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> iceman: you need to set kb layout in xorgconf to the correct country
[11:53] <scientus> ubuntu has allways gotten the hard drive numbers wrong on every install ive done
[11:53] <icesword> iceman, hehe, nice nick
[11:53] <scientus> or the root it sends to the kernel giving me itraramfs
[11:53] <blip-> why doesn't Launchy show icons for the programs, it shows an empty white icon for some progs like skype and pidgin\
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> scientus: there are parts for windows too, find the word chainloader
[11:53] <NET||abuse> quantumelixir: the 2 directives in question are RSAAuthentication yes and PubkeyAuthentication yes in /etc/sshd_confg
[11:53] <iceman> ActionParsnip: I don't have a xorg.conf anymore, I don't want to restore it because my DVI screen won't work if I do
[11:53] <NET||abuse> quantumelixir: the pub/private key thing? not sure what you mean?
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> iceman: why didnt you simply rename instead of delete?
[11:54] <quantumelixir> NET||abuse: As in, we require different pairs for different connection right?
[11:54] <maxagaz> how to use empathy ?
[11:54] <scientus> there i found stuff with the right language
[11:54] <maxagaz> how to add an account ?
[11:54] <blueeagle> ikonia: Again you are right. Thanks a million. ;)
[11:54] <iceman> ActionParsnip: actually, that's what I did...
[11:54] <ikonia> blueeagle no problem
[11:54] <ikonia> blueeagle: I wish I could explain why that happens
[11:54] <scientus> the kernel install deb i ran deleated those entries
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> maxagaz: http://nixcraft.com/getting-started-tutorials/3293-create-new-user-account-ubuntu-linux-command-line.html
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> iceman: then rename back
[11:55] <catmando> hello all
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> iceman: you can always comment out lines
[11:55] <iceman> ActionParsnip: then I'll be back where I started, without my DVI screen.
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> iceman: you may have to go there first to get to the goal
[11:55] <quantumelixir> NET||abuse: When I ssh into a new host is a new public private key pair generated?
[11:56] <scientus> it deleated the importand parts even when i said keep the old version really suxs
[11:56] <scientus> cause i changed the format a little
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> scientus: maybe you hit save earlier
[11:57] <dns53> php has the wrong time as the state has switched over to daylight saving at a different time, how do i manually change it
[11:57] <scientus> no i hit save, then keep, then it said changed on disk
[11:57] <iceman> ActionParsnip: I don't know what you mean. Situation was : correct kb layout in GDM and NO detection of DVI screen. After renaming of the xorg.conf, I got WRONG layout in GDM (correct everywhere else) and external DVI screen detected (yeah!)
[11:57] <scientus> it was above the 'eample part's so it just reset that part
[11:57] <scientus> *example part
[11:58] <quantumelixir> NET||abuse: Sorry,  I think I got confused a bit. Everyone has only one private-public pair no matter how many hosts they connect to right?
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> iceman: ok then with the display all good, set your keyboard language in xorg.conf
[11:58] <iceman> ActionParsnip: to do that, I'll have to restore it, which would again break my external display...
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> iceman: if you dont restore it you wont have any settings for your x server and one will be made
[11:59] <makkro> have installed a xen kernel but it wont show up in menu.lst Ubuntu server 8.04 64Bit, have run grub-update, any ideas?
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> makkro: how did you install it?
[12:00] <makkro> apt-get
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> makkro: strange, i thought itd update stuff
[12:00] <makkro> ActionParsnip, me too
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> makkro: only thing i can suggest is backup your menu.lst and add it manually
[12:01] <iceman> ActionParsnip: I don't understand what you mean. My screens work better without a xorg.conf (which is now obsolete, as xorg is supposed to autoconfigure). If I restore it my external screen won't work.
[12:02] <aunvoh> anyone feel like helping a noob with virtual box? i can't get my sound to work
[12:02] <makkro> ActionParsnip, have tried it, cannot boot on that kernel
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> iceman: your system needs an xorg.conf
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> iceman: it sets up the mouse, keyboard and display
[12:03] <iceman> ActionParsnip: I'm currently operating my computer without a xorg.conf file... I moved it then rebooted my laptop.
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> then ive no idea
[12:04] <iceman> ActionParsnip: Xorg 7.2 doesn't need an xorg.conf file
[12:04] <iceman> ActionParsnip: for most configs, anyway
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> are you using intrepid?
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> or are you using hardy?
[12:05] <iceman> ActionParsnip: nope, hardy
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> good
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> well ive always and probably always will have an xorg.conf
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> similarly i configure my network in /etc/network/interfaces
[12:05] <iceman> ActionParsnip: ow, don't be so pessimistic
[12:06] <iceman> someday you'll just plug your screen in, and everything will just autoconfigure, the way it's supposed to be
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> iceman: i dont like auto anything
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> i want control
[12:06] <scuser> ikonia: I changed it to passwd ldap only without files and it is still logging, does this mean that it switched to the files ?
[12:07] <osfameron> I just want it all to magically work
[12:07] <dns53> auto is great when it works perfectly the first time
[12:07]  * osfameron hates the xorg.conf and edits it only under duress, and only because the control panels ubuntu provide (as at GG) are completely worthless
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> i hate it, i push in a cd and i have to disable a tonne of stuff jumping in my face offering me stuff
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> massively annoying
[12:08] <iceman> computers are tools, you shouldn't have to tweak it and work on it. You should work WITH it.
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> i do work with it. i want it to work hen i want, not it trying to second guess me and get it wrong
[12:08] <iceman> and for me, that means the more things work automagically, the glader I am
[12:11] <nakata> hi
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> hi nakata
[12:12] <Jack[-_-]asS> hello i got ubuntu 7.10 installed on my comp but i also got xp with it...how can i remove ubuntu 7.10 complete without harming xp
[12:12] <Jack[-_-]asS> ??
[12:13] <havocstorm> hey guys
[12:13] <havocstorm> has anyone checked out the 8.01 betas?
[12:13] <dns53> Jack[-_-]asS you need to remove the boot loader entry using the windows recovery console and then delete the partition
[12:13] <jrib> Jack[-_-]asS: run 'fixmbr' from your windows install disk and format the ubuntu partition
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> Jack[-_-]asS: you will need to use the xp cd to reinstall the bootloader, then simply head into xp and reformat your linux partition to ntfs / fat32 so it can be used as storage space for windows
[12:13] <jrib> havocstorm: there's no such thing.  But if you want to discuss intrepid, please use #ubuntu+1
[12:14] <havocstorm> jrib, thanks
[12:15] <Jack[-_-]asS> so i need to boot with win xp disc and delete-format that partiotion that linux using
[12:15] <Jack[-_-]asS> than what?
[12:16] <jrib> Jack[-_-]asS: and fix the mbr, that's it
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> Jack[-_-]asS: no, when the boot has come to ask for first input, press f6
[12:16] <dns53> Jack[-_-]asS i believe there is a recovery console option on the cd, and you run fixmbr to wipe the boot menu, after that you can remove any partitions linux related
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> Jack[-_-]asS: you will drop to recovery console and you can fixmbr
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> Jack[-_-]asS: i'd ask in ##windows as this is not a ubuntu support question
[12:17] <Jack[-_-]asS> ok thanks anyway
[12:17] <Jack[-_-]asS> i try that
[12:17] <Oprtz> ikonia:  i am now able to see my windows machine from ubuntu, but cant access its share folders ?
[12:18] <Jack[-_-]asS> i dont want to delete my files from xp i got a very important things on it
[12:18] <Jack[-_-]asS> thanks
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> Oprtz: are you challenged for a username and password?
[12:18] <thomaspivot> i have a program running as a daemon...inside the program i have code which makes system() call to change password for a user...its like system(echo password | passwd user --stdin) ...but the issue is that since it is running as daemon it doesnt have access to stdin, stdout, stderror ... is there any workaround such that i can achieve the functionality that i am trying for?
[12:18] <Oprtz> ActionParsnip:  NO
[12:19] <Chousuke> thomaspivot: that's... not very secure.
[12:19] <MrKennie> Jack[-_-]asS: before you start playing with your filesystems, I stringly suggest you backup if you have important files.
[12:19] <bimberi> MrKennie: +1
[12:19] <Oprtz> it shows a waiting icons and then nothing shown
[12:19] <NET||abuse> aww, pidgin doesn't know lastlog :(
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> Oprtz: id check the sharing permissions on the windows side are ok, you should be getting asked for username and passwords
[12:20] <NET||abuse> quentusrex: did you figure out the ssh key thing? sorry went away for a while
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> MrKennie: if the data is important you should have a backup anyway
[12:20] <MrKennie> ActionParsnip: of course
[12:20] <Oprtz> can i send u the image on imageshake ?
[12:20] <Chousuke> thomaspivot: you're going to have to figure out another way to change the user's password from code. system() is not it
[12:20] <Chousuke> thomaspivot: but, a more important question: why the hell are you changing a user's password from a daemon?
[12:21] <aunvoh> anyone have experience getting Virtual box audio to work?
[12:21] <thomaspivot> @Chousuke ... is there any other non interactive way of doing it ...i just need to reset to a predetermined value
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> aunvoh: have you installed the extras?
[12:21] <jrib> aunvoh: make it use pulseaudio
[12:21] <Chousuke> thomaspivot: look at how passwd does it.
[12:22] <jrib> !pm | aunvoh
[12:22] <Chousuke> the code is open, so just get it and use it as an example.
[12:22] <thomaspivot> Chousuke: passwd needs a confirmation ...which is what i am trying to simulat ethrough echo and pipe
[12:22] <ikonia> thomaspivot: I suggest you take this to a programming channel
[12:23] <Chousuke> thomaspivot: the confirmation is just something passwd does; what you're interested in is the part of passwd that changes the password
[12:23] <thomaspivot> ok ..where can i get the code for passws
[12:23] <ikonia> thomaspivot: it's in core-utils
[12:23] <ljsoftnet> what's a good theme for gnome, that can shrink buttons, menus, and windows?
[12:23] <Chousuke> thomaspivot: and don't store the password in plaintext in your code
[12:23] <Chousuke> thomaspivot: store the hash that you're going to be putting in the passwd file
[12:24] <thomaspivot> ok ...got that
[12:24] <Chousuke> or shadow, I guess :/
[12:25] <makkro> ActionParsnip, now the menu.lst with xen works,, had to install xen-hypervisor
[12:25] <thomaspivot> Chouske :ok i will go the programming route ...trying to find sourcode for passwd
[12:25] <ActionParsnip> makkro: no idea, I dont even know what xen is
[12:25] <ActionParsnip> makkro: congrats on the xen booting :D
[12:25] <ikonia> ActionParsnip software hypervisor
[12:25] <makkro> ActionParsnip, virtualizing
[12:26]  * ActionParsnip is still none the wiser

[13:02] <jrib> msshams: why are you running that?
[13:02] <ikonia> msshams: I can tell that -O3 with lavac is not good
[13:02] <dns53> msshams those are warnings, contact the developers if you are concerned
[13:04] <ATA_Dark_Shadow> greetings, if /etc/init.d/saslauthd would allways starts to try sasldb rather then pam as mechanism, where do i need to look other then /etc/default/saslauthd?
[13:04] <msshams> jrib: i want to compile flv2mpeg4
[13:05] <msshams> ikonia: but without the -O3 i get same error
[13:05] <ikonia> msshams they are just warnings
[13:05] <ikonia> msshams: it sounds like you don't really understand what your doing
[13:06] <ikonia> msshams: I'd suggest you use the versions in the ubuntu repo's unless you have a specific reason not to
[13:06] <msshams> ikonia: but after this warning, command finished. and it can't compile
[13:06] <ikonia> msshams: so you need the errors not the warnings
[13:07] <ikonia> msshams: I strongly advise you not to continue though

[13:18] <slavik> is there a tomboy like applet that has alarm clock functionality???
[13:18] <mib_b4blih> When I connect to an IP as: ssh <IP> how do I know if that is connecting to an internal network address or an IP in the internet?
[13:19] <mari_ntutu> I have to create a system with around 100-150 users, I have changed the gnome desktop, icons, background, etc, I want all the users to have the same gnome-nautilus configuration, how can i create users with the same config?

[13:19] <LjL> mib_b4blih: you don't, you need to know what your internal network's IPs look like
[13:19] <trilobit`> mib_b4blih: you provide the ip address where you connect. You don't know where that ip is ?
[13:19] <slavik> mari_ntutu: /etc/skel
[13:19] <ikonia> mib_b4blih: you set it up - you should know if that ip is internal or external
[13:20] <jrib> mari_ntutu: read library.gnome.org admin guide

[13:26] <mib_b4blih> ikonia: What I asked earlier was: How can the program tell between two hosts having the same IP but residing on different sides of the network?
[13:26] <rakib> can any one suggest me !!!!!!!!
[13:26] <LjL> mib_b4blih: it can't
[13:26] <ikonia> rakib why make aliases, just invoke the stop / start commands
[13:26] <ikonia> mib_b4blih they don't
[13:26] <Guest71511> When I minimize the tool bars in Gnome they disappear off the screen so I don't have any panels?' Any ideas how to recuperate them please?
[13:26] <mari_ntutu> jrib: "Desktop Administrators' Guide to GNOME Lockdown and Preconfiguration" from d begining till d end
[13:26] <LjL> mib_b4blih: that's why hosts in an internal network should NOT have IPs that are assigned to public use
[13:26] <remoteCTR1> rakibi suggest you ast a question
[13:27] <Dirac> tau ate aqui?
[13:27] <LjL> mib_b4blih: examples of IPs assigned to *private* uses are 10.x.x.x and 192.168.x.x (iirc)
[13:27] <ikonia> mib_b4blih: I suggest you purchase a book on basic networking to get an overview
[13:27] <LjL> !br | dirac
[13:27] <rakib> ikonia: will that do ?
[13:27] <ikonia> rakib: yup
[13:27] <ikonia> rakib: don't need aliases
[13:27] <rakib> ikonia: it is the only problem for not executing ?
[13:27] <paul68> I if you work with 4 different workspaces, is there a way to modify the homepage from your browser for each workspace?
[13:27] <mib_b4blih> LjL: Oh. I didnt know these things were standardised. We have it like that here.
[13:27] <ikonia> rakib ?
[13:28] <mib_b4blih> ikonia: Can you suggest a book?
[13:28] <LjL> mib_b4blih, of course the IP addressing space is standardized, if it weren't you wouldn't have an internet
[13:28] <ikonia> mib_b4blih tons on amazon, o'reilly is always a good publisher
[13:28] <paul68> so you have for workspace 1 as browsers homepage google
[13:28] <mib_b4blih> LjL: Evidently, I'm a newbie :D
[13:28] <paul68> for the second for example ubuntu
[13:28] <blueeagle> paul68: As far as I know no webbrowser are aware or care which workspace they are opened on. Nor should they imo.
[13:29] <jrib> mari_ntutu: well it also mentions gconf and pessulus before sabayon even.  And tells you that you should see the GNOME Desktop System Administration Guide for more in depth information on gconf.  And that guide tells you how to set default values for gconf system-wide
[13:29] <mib_b4blih> ikonia: I search for books on TCP/IP?
[13:29] <rakib> ikonia: my commands don't seem to work as expected. is it due to the aliases ? if i remove the aliases then they would surely execute ?
[13:29] <ikonia> mib_b4blih: just "networking"
[13:29] <mib_b4blih> ikonia: or on general networking
[13:29] <paul68> blueeagle: ok thanks
[13:29] <ikonia> rakib thats right
[13:29] <mib_b4blih> ikonia: Thanks
[13:29] <rakib> ikonia: thanks
[13:29] <mib_b4blih> LjL: Thanks for your time!
[13:29] <Guest71511> Last night I deleted some files and this morning when I started my computer I have no tool bars. Any ideas how I can bring them back to the panel again plese?
[13:30] <ikonia> Guest71511: you asked that about 2 minutes ago
[13:30] <ikonia> Guest71511: people have been going through options with you
[13:30] <kibibyte> im lokking how to make urlencode in bash
[13:30] <LjL> Guest71511: you have no *toolbars*, or you have no *panels*? those aren't the same thing
[13:30] <Guest71511> ikonia - u are right, but nothing has helped so far
[13:30] <ikonia> Guest71511 so how is asking again going to make it wotrk
[13:30] <mib_b4blih> One more thing. The passphrase for a private key in SSH protects what and from whom?
[13:31] <LjL> Guest71511, it helps us if you give us feedback on the advice we give. for instance, i don't know what happened when you tried the ctrl+alt+f1 thing and reset the panel from there.
[13:31] <ikonia> mib_b4blih read up on networking
[13:31] <Guest71511> Apologies I am confusing everyone. I have no tool bars at the top or at the bottom so can't access anything. It's a sif they are out of the screen area.
[13:31] <ikonia> mib_b4blih: your running before walking
[13:31] <LjL> mib_b4blih: it protects you from people who somehow gain physical access to your computer (or access to your files, anyway) from getting your private key with ease
[13:31] <blueeagle> Guest71511: Did you press CTRL+ALT+{KeyPad+}
[13:31] <Guest71511> LjL I thought I replied. I tried this but nothing happened
[13:32] <Guest71511> blueeagle : I will try thks.
[13:32] <LjL> Guest71511: you said nothing happened when you had tried the alt+f2 then "xterm" thing
[13:32] <jim_p> has firefox 3.03 reached the repos
[13:32] <Guest71511> blueeagle which is the KeyPad* key??
[13:32] <jim_p> ???
[13:32] <mib_b4blih> ikonia: Isn't Networking a big undertaking for learning something like SSH? I just want to be able to SSH..
[13:32] <Guest71511> LjL I will try again
[13:32] <ikonia> mib_b4blih you can ssh
[13:32] <ikonia> mib_b4blih so no problem
[13:32] <LjL> mib_b4blih: if you want to be able to ssh, just type "ssh <IP>" as we've been saying all along
[13:32] <blueeagle> Guest71511: That is the big "+" key on the rigth of the keyboard (ie the keypad)
[13:33] <blueeagle> Guest71511: Above the key labled "enter" all the way to the right unless ofcourse you're on a laptop.
[13:33] <mib_b4blih> ikonia: Of course I can. I was just asking if it wasnt necessary to learn Networking first, as you had suggested
[13:33] <ikonia> mib_b4blih not to use ssh, but to understand your questions - yes
[13:33] <Guest71511> LjL It tells me it cant display
[13:33] <LjL> mib_b4blih: no, but it's necessary if you want to satisfactorily answer the questions you asked about internal and public IPs
[13:34] <Guest71511> blueeagle will try
[13:34] <mib_b4blih> LjL: ok..
[13:34] <smm289> windows has a device manager to tell you what drivers and hardware components are installed, Does Hardy have something similiar
[13:34] <Ven]n> i have a bootable usb stick with the ubuntu 8.04 image on it.. how do i install ubuntu to that same usb stick? its 4 GB
[13:34] <blueeagle> smm289: lspci and lsusb usually do the trick.
[13:34] <erUSUL> smm289: "sudo lshw"
[13:34] <LjL> smm289: yes, there is the "lshw" command that does that, and there is also a graphical interface that uses it in GNOME, although i don't remember where it is (don't use GNOME)
[13:34] <qweqweqwe> fuck
[13:35] <mib_b4blih> The passphrase protects my private key from people who have access to my computer?
[13:35] <Guest71511> blueeagle it did nothing
[13:35] <LjL> mib_b4blih: yes, as well as people who somehow gain access to your files in /home, as i said
[13:35] <blueeagle> Ven]n: I do not recomend you do that.  Was worth a shot.
[13:35] <Guest71511> blueeagle it seems all my tool bars are off the screen for some reason? I can't recuperate them
[13:36] <blueeagle> Guest71511: and by "toolbars" you mean "panels". Please use the right name for them. ;)
[13:36] <Ven]n> bluedusk, the alternative is my SSD :)
[13:36] <Guest71511> blueeagle thks I appreciate your help
[13:36] <Guest71511> LjL Appreciate your kind help too
[13:36] <Ven]n> bluedusk, its a netbook
[13:36] <mib_b4blih> LjL: But I can easily cat id_rsa and read the contents!
[13:36] <ikonia> mib_b4blih: join #ssh or buy the orielly ssh book
[13:36] <Ven]n> blueeagle, *
[13:36] <ikonia> mib_b4blih: your asking general help, which is nothing to do with ubuntu
[13:36] <blueeagle> Ven]n: However if you want to do this you need to make the usb stick bootable and extract the files from the ISO-image to a partition and boot from that usb stick and then you can install it.
[13:36] <LjL> mib_b4blih: noticed how it says "Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTED" at the start of that file?
[13:37] <mib_b4blih> ikonia: Im using cgi:irc. Have problems with logging into that channel using a proxy connection.
[13:37] <Ven]n> blueeagle, thats already done.. but youre saying i can just select the usb key in the installation?
[13:37] <blueeagle> Ven]n: You may need the alternate install iso to do this tho.
[13:37] <Ven]n> uhh
[13:37] <ikonia> mib_b4blih sorry, that doesn't make ubuntu an gernal chat channel, the o'reilly book on ssh is VERY good
[13:37] <mosta213> salut
[13:37] <LjL> !fr | mosta213
[13:37] <ikonia> mib_b4blih: I use it on a regular basis
[13:37] <blueeagle> Ven]n: Well it would probably be /dev/sd0 unless you've got scsi or sata drives installed. In which case you'd need to identify the stick.
[13:38] <mib_b4blih> LjL: Oh!!  Sorry!
[13:38] <mosta213> hello
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> Ven]n: sudo fdisk -l will show it
[13:38] <mib_b4blih> ikonia: Will check it out!
[13:38] <sysdef> mib_b4blih: if you loose your private key you have enough time to disable it and generate a new one while the bad guys brutforcing your key
[13:38] <Ven]n> blueeagle, ive used unetbootin to create the bootable usb with ubuntu
[13:39] <Guest71511> blueagle I did all you advised correctly. Perhaps you can correct me on terminology. At the top and bottom of the screen there are lots of icons. Is this called the toolar or panels?
[13:39] <Ven]n> im just wondering if i can install from like E:/extracted_image to E:/
[13:39] <Ven]n> so i can make changes to the image and not use the "use ubuntu live without adding changes to your computer"
[13:39] <ActionParsnip> Ven]n: linux doesnt use drive letters, just mount points and devics
[13:39] <Ven]n> ActionParsnip, i know that. it was an example
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> Ven]n: thats cool, i take nothing as taken in here
[13:40] <Ven]n> :)
[13:40] <wers> how do i change my computer's name? :D
[13:40] <Ward1983> how do i get rid of network-manager and the applet?
[13:40] <Pici> !hostname | wers
[13:40] <nsprams> Hi folks, when mounting a window share.. i am not able to access.. and the system hangs..  can anyone help ?
[13:40] <LjL> Ward1983: you should be able to just uninstall network-manager, last time i checked it wasn't a hard dependency of anything
[13:40]  * ActionParsnip makes mental note of hostname trigger
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: how are you mounting it?
[13:41] <Ward1983> LjL, great :) will try
[13:41] <nsprams> ActionParsnip: using smbmount
[13:41] <smm289> gnome-Device Manager, is a nice GUI device manager, the name is accurate ;)
[13:41] <wers> thanks, pici!
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: ok with fstab or commandline?
[13:41] <nsprams> ActionParsnip: using command line..
[13:41] <smm289> can Hardy connect with 802.11N?
[13:41] <Guest71511> LjL and blueeagle Thks for your help this morning. Can either of you suggest where I can go from here????
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: can you ping the system?
[13:42] <nsprams> yes
[13:42] <nsprams> it mounts ... but when i try to access.. it goes like a loop
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: is their a fireall on the windows pc?
[13:42] <jim_p> new opera 9.60 today!!
[13:42] <nsprams>  ls /mnt/windows-shares/NY2/NY2/NY2/
[13:42] <nsprams> ls: reading directory /mnt/windows-shares/NY2/NY2/NY2/: Object is remote
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: and if so is it allowing the correct access
[13:42] <smm289> does Hardy have support for 802.11n?
[13:42] <blueeagle> nsprams: You're doing smbmount on a share that is running on another system?
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> smm289: id imagine so
[13:43] <LjL> Guest71511: given the little i know of the situation, i'd suggest creating a new user for yourself (and then moving over your personal files), as it looks to me like you have deleted configuration files
[13:43] <nsprams> blueeagle: yes
[13:43] <blueeagle> nsprams: Is this other system running windows or samba?
[13:43] <nsprams> blueeagle: windows
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> Guest71511: you could rename all the gnome config folders and reboot
[13:43] <Guest71511> LjL Perhaps a good idea. How can I do that?
[13:43] <blueeagle> nsprams: Do you have a user account on the windows server?
[13:43] <smm289> Action: its just that I have an intel 802.11n card in my laptop, but its only connecting at a G rate.  I used to connect with N fine under windows
[13:43] <nsprams> ActionParsnip: how do i check if it has any thing wrong..
[13:43] <Guest71511> ActionParsnip Thks how can I do that
[13:44] <nsprams> blueeagle: yes, i can connect from windows... but i am trying to use ubuntu for all my office needs now... stuck with this
[13:44] <LjL> Guest71511: well, you can do it from the GNOME settings, but since you probably can't access them, you can "sudo adduser newusername". then you also need to add it to some important groups, such as "admin" (the one that lets you use sudo), that's done with "sudo adduser username groupname". type "groups" as your user to see what groups it currently belongs to, and replicate those
[13:44] <Guest71511> LLjL Can I not reload the deleted files?
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> Guest71511: http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/ but use mv instead of rm
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: can you give me your mountng command please
[13:45] <Guest71511> LjL I am sure if I do this i will get lost in the process.
[13:45] <blueeagle> nsprams: Have you run (as root): smbpasswd -add <username> <password>
[13:45] <nsprams> ActionParsnip: blueeagle : will paste the command.. one sec
[13:45] <jim_p> smm289: is there a kde equivalent for gnome-device manager?
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> blueeagle: isnt that to be ran on a samba server, not one connecting to a file sharing windows box???
[13:46] <Guest71511> ActionParsnip. This sounds a great idea. Sorry being a newbie what do you mean by use mv instead of rm???
[13:46] <blueeagle> ActionParsnip: You may be right. I haven't done this for years. :)
[13:46] <nsprams> sudo smbmount //ip-soft.net/shares/ /mnt/windows-shares/ -o username=psadhees
[13:46] <LjL> Guest71511: seems pretty straightforward to me. "adduser" adds the user. "groups" show you what groups you belong to. "adduser <user> <group>" adds a user to a group.
[13:46] <jim_p> smm289: and where is it? i installed it and i lost it :P
[13:46] <ActionParsnip> Guest71511: do the action on the folders it specifies individually but use mv to rename, delete only once you have a sound config
[13:46] <nsprams> blueeagle: ActionParsnip: the command is "sudo smbmount //ip-soft.net/shares/ /mnt/windows-shares/ -o username=psadhees"
[13:46] <Guest71511> LjL Thks. Appreciate what you say
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> Guest71511: try to keep deleteing broken configs to a minimal so you can roll back
[13:47] <smm289> Jim_P: I beleive I saw a KDE version of device manager, I found the Gnome version in the Add/Remove... system tools
[13:48] <smm289> Jim_P: It should be located under applications/System Tools
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: is it shared over wan?
[13:48] <Guest71511> ActionParsnip. I am going to try what you say. do I just click on the web llink or type this in the terminal?
[13:48] <jim_p> smm289: thanks a lot. i was looking for it in control panel
[13:48] <blueeagle> nsprams: try: mount -t smbfs -o username=psadhees,workgroup=yourworkgroup,guest //ip-soft.net/shares /mnt/windows/shares
[13:48] <nsprams> ActionParsnip: its our office share..
[13:48] <nsprams> blueeagle: trying now
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> Guest71511: you need to go to the site, if you read the folder list it specifies to rm, you need to rename them using mv (E.g. mv .gconf gconf_old)
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> Guest71511: as an example
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> Guest71511: just give them different names to what they have
[13:50] <blueeagle> ouchh.. "office share"... That sounds ehh... dangerous.
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: id check the hostname you are connecting to. the .net means the system has to hit that domain first, which is on the www
[13:50] <Ward1983_> how can i update without installing newer kernels on ubuntu 7.10? i had to use 7.10 because i needed a older kernel
[13:50] <nsprams> ActionParsnip: ok
[13:51] <nsprams> blueeagle: it is a lill dangerous! :p
[13:51] <confused> hi people!
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: the host name is not ip-soft.net
[13:52] <confused> i've a trouble with grub
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: that is on the internet
[13:52] <nsprams> ActionParsnip: hmm.. yah.. thinking about how i can find the host..
[13:52] <confused> anyone may help me?
[13:52] <blueeagle> nsprams: I'd recomend mentioning to your boss that a document management system does cost less than what may happen with documents on a shared drive.
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: it'll be some short name
[13:52] <Pici> !ask | confused
[13:52] <Abs0looteBeginne> hi. i need help at understanding two ssh parameters in ~.ssh/config file: there is "Host" and "Hostname" - i read the man 5 ssh_config but for me its still not clear what is what. could someone pls explain me what parameter is mandatory and whats not ?  - my primary target is to pre-configure some port-forwardings that always gets active if the user connects to one of 4 possible hosts. for example those hostnames may be host1.dyndns
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: go to the system, right click my computer -> properties -> computer name tab
[13:53] <ikonia> Abs0looteBeginne you may find better support in #openssh
[13:53] <LjL> !away > trilobit`-away    (trilobit`-away, see the private message from Ubotu)
[13:53] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: you want the leftmost word of the full computername
[13:53] <confused> ok
[13:53] <jrib> Abs0looteBeginne: Host is just your nickname for that connection.  Hostname is the hostname you are actually connecting to
[13:53] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: like mines sptuk05.rtix.local so my pc is called sptuk05
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: thats what you need to change your mount command to
[13:54] <nsprams> ActionParsnip: we used to access it like \\IPsoft tools!\shares\NY2\docs\Operations\IPsoft\ClientLogin  from RUN on windows..
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> the system name has a space. dear lord
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: then put quotes round it
[13:55] <nsprams> oh.. sorry.. that got replaced..
[13:55] <nsprams> its the domin name that needs to go there..
[13:55] <nsprams> ipsoft.net
[13:55] <nsprams> that is
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> no, just the computer name
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> that is holding the files
[13:56] <OsamaK> Mono problem: <http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5922732#post5922732>
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: you can also run ipconfig /all in a cmd prompt and at the top will be the host name
[13:56] <nsprams> ActionParsnip: \\ipsoft.net\shares\NY2\docs\Operations\IPsoft\ClientLogin is how we access from windows..
[13:56] <smm289> is anyone here connected at 802.11N rates, I can't get past a G connection, and googles not being much help this moring
[13:56] <nsprams> but i do not have access to the system..
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: thats because you are naming the whole domain, not a pc
[13:57] <nsprams> ActionParsnip: how do i figure out the host ?
[13:57] <blueeagle> nsprams: Don't tell me that the computer is named ipsoft.net?
[13:57] <nsprams> blueeagle: nah, its not!
[13:57] <ikonia> blueeagle tahts dns it will default to the domain record for the domain
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: walk to the system and run ipconfig /all in a cmd prompt, at the top it will say hostname, thats what you need
[13:57] <blueeagle> ahh..
[13:57] <ikonia> blueeagle: there will be a hostname but it's not shown
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: or if you know its IP you can use that
[13:58] <nsprams> ActionParsnip: thanks, i do not know the physical location of the box, let me check if someone here knows..
[13:58] <nsprams> :(
[13:59] <blueeagle> nsprams: Try sending it a ping and follow the sound. :p
[13:59] <dany_21a_> nsprams: what happens if you ping ipsoft.net?
[13:59] <blueeagle> dany_21a_: That would give him an ip address which he could use instead of the hostname, wouldn't it?
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> dany_21a_: thats the name of his domain, we need the computername holding the data
[14:00] <dany_21a_> bluedusk: jep
[14:00] <dany_21a_> blueeagle: sorry, ^
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> you could have mailserver.ipsoft.net and file01.ipsoft.net
[14:00] <blueeagle> dany_21a_: no worries. :)
[14:00] <linkinxp> hello i would like to make a little app to display my current mac address , i will like to have it in gnome panel, how i lookup my mac address string?
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> linkinxp: ifconfig
[14:00] <blueeagle> ActionParsnip: They use smb shares to share documents... do you think they've got several servers? o.O
[14:01] <linkinxp> ActionParsnip, i know that. but how i call it from a script?
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> blueeagle: we have thousands at my place of work
[14:01] <blueeagle> ActionParsnip: servers or smb shares?
[14:01] <linkinxp> ActionParsnip, only the HWaddr
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> linkinxp: just call it like you do in a shell, but in a bash script
[14:01] <jlilly> So I'm having some issues with my wireless. Specifically that the connection drops in and out. Any thoughts? (Running on a MBP)
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> linkinxp: you're gonna be sed and grepping to cut the flack out
[14:02] <jlilly> I'm using the ath_pci driver via madwifi
[14:02] <nsprams> dany_21a_: sorry i missed your question , it pings to IP <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> linkinxp: lemme see if its been done
[14:02] <linkinxp> ActionParsnip,  Grep and Sed? let me find out .
[14:02] <linkinxp> ActionParsnip, thanks!
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: then use that instead of the hostname

[14:06] <blueeagle> Linuturk: That would be correct. :p
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> blueeagle: looks decent
[14:06] <blueeagle> linkinxp: ifconfig |grep HWaddr|grep eth0|awk {'print $5'}
[14:06] <dr-lee> hi
[14:06] <linkinxp> bluedusk, wow let me try :S
[14:07] <blueeagle> linkinxp: ifconfig |grep eth0|awk {'print $5'}
[14:07] <linkinxp> awesome
[14:07] <blueeagle> grepping for hwaddr was redundant
[14:07] <linkinxp> ho ok
[14:07] <linkinxp> i can change it to wlan0
[14:07] <ActionParsnip> some people have leet bash skillz
[14:07] <dr-lee> i have searched some hours and cant find an answer....can you help me??
[14:07] <blueeagle> just replace eth0 with wlan0
[14:07] <jlilly> dr-lee: don't ask to ask. just state your question.
[14:07] <ActionParsnip> !ask | dr-lee
[14:07] <linkinxp> thanks i need to learn that
[14:07] <Pici> Raku-chan: What is ukltramixer?
[14:08] <dany_21a_> blueeagle: prefix it with LC_ALL=C
[14:08] <dr-lee> how can i install or check out if ahci is installed..i want to use ahci sata harddiscs
[14:08] <blueeagle> dany_21a_: Why?
[14:08] <dr-lee> on ubuntu 8
[14:08] <jlilly> linkinxp: if you're looking for some bash tricks, you might find some here: http://justinlilly.com/wp-content/uploads/bash_profile
[14:08] <linkinxp> jlilly, i will read right now, thanks
[14:08] <jlilly> ^^ my bashrc in ubuntu (in transitition from mac)
[14:08] <dany_21a_> blueeagle: on a german locale it would print out "Adresse", because the string looks like: eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  Hardware Adresse 00:50:fc:b1:xx:xx
[14:08] <linkinxp> now how can i make an app in the panel gnome with that info??
[14:09] <dft> hello, anyone know of a better way to get the date of a file instead of ls -ltr --time-style=+%s and piping the result into awk?
[14:09] <blueeagle> dany_21a_: Good point.
[14:09] <blueeagle> linkinxp: Did you get what dany_21a_ said?
[14:09] <ActionParsnip> dr-lee: is that fake raid?
[14:09] <dany_21a_> blueeagle: i also hate, that some commmandline tools a localized...

[14:10] <cowboyd> Hi, I just took a "partial distribution upgrade" of the 8.10beta about 5 minutes ago, and I fear that it is hung on the "cleaning up" step. The last line in the terminal output is "ldconfig deferred processing now taking place."    I'm a bit worried at this point about how to proceed without destroying something major. Anyone have advice on what to do?
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> dft: if it works then sweet
[14:10] <blueeagle> linkinxp: I don't use gnome so I wouldn't know.
[14:10] <dft> it does
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> cowboyd: id give it a bit
[14:11] <nsprams> dany_21a_: smb://<IP_ADDRESS> doesnt show any files..
[14:11] <paul68> blueeagle: I've to keep an close eye on your answers I already learned a lot from you today thanks for that
[14:11] <dft> but I'm wondering if there is a better way while using bash shell scripting
[14:11] <cowboyd> ActionParsnip: it's been at it for over 10 minutes, and I don't see any noticeable cpu or disk usage
[14:11] <dr-lee> i read this article allready..seems very complicated but i will try
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> nsprams: i think you are trying to connect to the wrong thing, you keep giving the address of internet things
[14:11] <linkinxp> blueeagle, thanks, ill find out thanks for your help
[14:11] <blueeagle> linkinxp: echo some label `LC_ALL=C ifconfig |grep eth0|awk {'print $5'}`
[14:11] <linkinxp> and every1's
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> cowboyd: what time is it where you are?
[14:12] <cowboyd> 9:12am
[14:12] <blueeagle> linkinxp: In the command line that will yeld: some label <mac address here>
[14:12] <blueeagle> paul68: :)
[14:12] <ActionParsnip> cowboyd: ok just curious if you could leave it over nigth
[14:12] <dr-lee> second question...how can i install fingerprint software for ubuntu..which software and daemon do you recommend for fingerprint readers ?
[14:12] <cowboyd> ActionParsnip: lol, unfortunately I just got into work!
[14:12] <ActionParsnip> cowboyd: waste some time for another 20mins say giving it 30 mins total
[14:12] <ActionParsnip> cowboyd: ah
[14:13] <cowboyd> ActionParsnip: I'll go get some coffee, delay, etc....
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> best way
[14:13] <nsprams> ActionParsnip: dany_21a_ blueeagle : thanks much for all your help.. i will see if i can get the IP , that i should be connecting to..
[14:13] <icnpunk> who have safe and easy full disk back for linux?
[14:14] <cowboyd> ActionParsnip: If that is the case, it would be nice if it at least gave some sort of response, like "this could take up to 30 minutes"
[14:15] <cowboyd> also, am I endangering the process by using IRC?
[14:15] <ActionParsnip> cowboyd: indeed but i think its eithe taking its sweet time or hng in which caseyou're gonna have to look at your processes
[14:15] <dft> cowboyd: IRC will corrupt your soul
[14:15] <dft> let alone your system:)
[14:15] <ActionParsnip> cowboyd: no, should be ok. the new programs are not used until yuo run them
[14:16] <Pici> dft: You can probably use stat to get the time faster.  i.e.: stat -c %x file.ext  : fyi, it may use your shell's builtin stat, so change to bash if you're using something else (it didn't work properly for me in zsh)
[14:16] <dft> Pici: ty I'll check it out
[14:16] <Raku-chan> bye
[14:17] <cowboyd> ActionParsnip: So, I'm going to wait 20 minutes before doing anything, but if it is hung, what should I do to minimize fail?
[14:18] <dr-lee> dmraid is for raid..look like if i have to make this option fakeraid to use the ahci sata hot pluggin feature, am i right?
[14:18] <dr-lee> isnt there a lil more easy way?
[14:18] <Kartagis> if i am getting 'C++ compiler cannot create executables' error, do i need to
[14:18] <Kartagis> if i am getting 'C++ compiler cannot create executables' error, do i need to get gcc?
[14:19] <jrib> Kartagis: you need build-essential
[14:19] <peter_> Hi. I want to build a Qt/embedded application from source on ubuntu. Where is it available from? Thanks.
[14:19] <ActionParsnip> cowboyd: you can brig up a terminal and type ps -ef
[14:19] <ActionParsnip> cowboyd: you may have a hung app
[14:19] <Kartagis> thanks jrib
[14:20] <blueeagl1> ikonia: Ok, now the script is running. In three hours and ten seconds we'll know if it works. :)
[14:20] <paul68> blueeagle: do you have by any chance a working solution to get a creative labs fatal1y working under ubuntu
[14:21] <BlueEagle> paul68: "working" and "creative" does NOT belong in the same sentence.
[14:21] <paul68> blueeagle: lol
[14:21] <BlueEagle> paul68: You'll have to look elsewhere for that. I refuse to do any kind of support on Creative products.
[14:22] <Pici> paul68: Other people in this channel may be able to help though, be patient.
[14:22] <paul68> blueeagle: no problem
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> BlueEagle: how about its difficult to get *creative* sound cards *working*
[14:24] <dr-lee> thanks for your help though....seems like linux is still an operating system for the it proffessionals...all the time when i want to install a lil hardware functionality i have to compile kernel or kernel modules...this is much too complex and complicated for normal users :(((
[14:24] <BlueEagle> ActionParsnip: How about creative is fucking their customers by releasing crippled drivers to force people to by new sound cards?
[14:25] <Pici> BlueEagle: That language is not necessary.
[14:25] <BlueEagle> sorry about the language.
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> dr-lee: its not hard to compile stuff, dont be afraid
[14:25] <BlueEagle> Pici: I am just a tad upset about their businessmodel, as you probably noticed.
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> BlueEagle: just research whats compatible and buy that rather than buying blind and getting a tonne of grief
[14:26] <mcplectrum> how can i force hardy to use 75hz instead of 60? At the moment only 60hz is available, but the monitor supports 75hz
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> BlueEagle: they make more money by supporting windows so they put more effort into supporting that which is an excellent business model for creatinve as it generates maximum cash
[14:26] <cowboyd> ActionParsnip: yeah, I'll give it 5 more minutes, but which process do I need to kill off? update-manager? Also, where (if at all) should I file a bug in order to help out?
[14:26] <dr-lee> ok ..thanks again..very last question...do you recommend using sata drives in ahci mode on ubuntu..i read that there are still many bugs and i havent found one guy who is saying that he recommends this functionality??
[14:27] <BlueEagle> ActionParsnip: I am talking about the Vista drivers they released (or rather didn't) and when some guy released working drivers they threatened to slap him with a lawsuit for distributing his fix.
[14:27] <anderson> hi
[14:27] <anderson> i need help
[14:27] <BlueEagle> !ask > anderson
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> cowboyd: look at whats running in the list and what the apps are called that you are running to update
[14:27] <remu> hey guys, I'm running the Intrepid Beta, but I have what I believe is a general question. I was having problems with my sound, so I added irqpoll as a kernel option which solved my sound issues, but it seems to make the system less responsive, especially the touchpad. Does anyone know if it is possible to apply the irqpoll only to the soundcard?
[14:27] <anderson> i dont speak english
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> BlueEagle: thats vista for you, i ran it for a month on MSDN license. It sucked
[14:28] <Pici> !br | anderson
 i dont speak english outch
[14:28] <anderson> im not register in channel ubuntu-br
[14:28] <Pici> !register > anderson
[14:28] <BlueEagle> ActionParsnip: Well, it's not Vistas fault as it's Creative that willfully withold drivers that are known to work properly for the sake of having users upgrading their hardware.
[14:28] <dr-lee> any1 here who can recommend using ubuntu with sata drives in ahci mode ??
[14:28] <anderson> how make for register
[14:28] <cowboyd> ActionParsnip:  ok, since this is a dist-upgrade, there are alot of packages
[14:29] <Pici> anderson: See the message from ubottu
[14:29] <murlidhar> can anybody help me setup my tvcard in linux ?
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> cowboyd: true, you may have to websearch a little so you know whats going on
[14:29] <cwraig> murlidhar, what kind of card do you have?
[14:29] <murlidhar> i have installed tvtime already but not able to see any programs

[14:31] <ikonia> Kartagis autoheader is not installed on your system
[14:32] <cowboyd> ActionParsnip: yeah, I've search, but not getting to many hits

[14:32] <MasterOfZen> http://www.meine-nackte-ex.cc.gd/?ref=3411396
[14:32] <cwraig> murlidhar, do you know if linux has identified your card correctly?
[14:32] <overrider> ls -l
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> overrider: you install virtualbox then theres a module pertaining to vbox which must match your kernel number. let me fire up my box
[14:33] <ne2k__> ActionParsnip: what has the routing table got to do with it?
[14:33] <ward__> what is mapping hotplug in /etc/network/interfaces used for?
[14:33] <murlidhar> cwraig: i am not sure
[14:33] <dr-lee> k. u linux guys want the ordinary linux users like me doin kernel and module compiling....now i know why i everyone is suggesting installing a bootloader so you can at least work after unsuccesful kernel compile
[14:33] <mctag> loey all
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> ne2k__: it'll show you routes that are active which should show you some info
[14:33] <ikonia> dr-lee you need a boot loader to boot linux - you can't work without one
[14:33] <NET||abuse> How can i get the nm-applet to use the pptp connection settings for when i need to vpn to work?
[14:33] <overrider> ActionParsnip, thats right. but then selecting that package it says it cannot install it because it needs the linux-image-2.6.24-20-generic, which it cannot find. and i cannot find it using the synaptic either
[14:33] <ikonia> dr-lee: thats nothing to do with compiling a kernel
[14:34] <anderson> why change nick name
[14:34] <ne2k__> dr-lee: man, you should be taking the lid off your hard drive and remagnetizing bits of it by hand
[14:34] <dr-lee> hehehe
[14:34] <anderson> i never make this
[14:34] <ward__> what is mapping hotplug in /etc/network/interfaces used for?
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> overrider: the thing its trying to install, change the name to end in 19 and it will sail

[14:34] <ikonia> mctag: what is the issue
[14:35] <cwraig> murlidhar, can you open the file manager and go to /dev  in that folder should be a file called video0 or something similar
[14:35] <ne2k__> ActionParsnip: why would seeing routes tell me what the NAT masquerading table was?
[14:35] <cwraig> TuTUXG, wow thats an achievement

[14:35] <SurfnKid> hi guys, im trying to set up the ports to access a computer via SSH
[14:35] <ikonia> mctag delete the partitions at a partition level
[14:35] <SurfnKid> which ports should I open?
[14:35] <SurfnKid> port 22 only?
[14:36] <alsor> 22
[14:36] <alsor> yuh
[14:36] <dr-lee> i wanted to use the terratec usb dvb-t device..therefore i had to compile kernel modules and change firmware...i want to use ahci and i have to compile kernel as it seems, i want to use music software andi need realtime kernel...everything needs compiling kernels and modules :((
[14:36] <TuTUXG> cwraig, i repair laptops for friends
[14:36] <SurfnKid> alsor: ok cool
[14:36] <ward__> SurfnKid, yes 22 should do it (tcp btw)
[14:36] <ActionParsnip> ne2k__: sorry, i misunderstood
[14:36] <SurfnKid> thanks
[14:36] <ne2k__> SurfnKid: tcp port 22
[14:36] <alsor> SurfnKid: al right
[14:36] <murlidhar> cwraig: will that be a folder ?
[14:36] <cwraig> SurfnKid, 22
[14:36] <mctag> ikonia: tryed that when recreate mdadm or lvm initalise alwas the old crap
[14:36] <cwraig> murlidhar, no it will be a file
[14:36]  * SurfnKid is now more assured than ever with several different sources of confirmation
[14:36] <abe3k> hi guys :), I have a question, is it possible to view my windows registry from ubuntu ?
[14:36]  * SurfnKid is relieved :]
[14:37] <ward__> lol
[14:37] <ne2k__> alsor: cwraig: there is no such thing as "port 22". there is udp port 22, and there is tcp port 22
[14:37] <dr-lee> everyone says compile but i am after 25 years hanging infront of the screen still no it specialist..shit
[14:37] <SurfnKid> gotta run
[14:37] <murlidhar> cwraig: yes there is file called video0
[14:37] <ikonia> mctagif how are you deleting the partitions and at what stage are you deleting them
[14:37] <ikonia> mctag: keep in mind you need to have the volumes stopped the the logical volumes deactived
[14:37] <mctag> ikonia isnt there any way to  wipe that crap exept  wipe or dd
[14:37] <BlueEagle> TuTUXG: But not all threaten to sue people who provide 3rd party fixes.
[14:37] <ward__> what is mapping hotplug in /etc/network/interfaces used for?
[14:37] <cwraig> murlidhar, do you have a webcam or some other kind of video input device?
[14:38] <ikonia> mctag: so you've not done fdisk on the physical devices (not meta drives) and removed the partitions
[14:38] <murlidhar> cwraig: nope . just the tvcard .
[14:38] <anphi> hi, I've got an KUbuntu USB-Stick that will not start X or bash and just stops in an busybox (initramfs) every time I boot it
[14:38] <dr-lee> copy and pasting some lines in the terminal windows which i dont understand is allright for me but compiling without knowing what i am doin there is quite dangerous..there is risk that i am compiling malware in the kernel
[14:38] <abe3k> is it possible to view a windows registry from ubuntu ?
[14:38] <ikonia> abe3k not relaly
[14:38] <ikonia> really
[14:38] <alsor> ne2k__: yes, u r right:)
[14:38] <ne2k__> abe3k: you can probably run regedt32 under wine. not sure, though
[14:39] <abe3k> no I mean my windows from another partition
[14:39] <LjL> ne2k__: yeah but wine's own regedit uses a different format, so you'd have to try windows' own
[14:39] <TuTUXG> BlueEagle, just because there are no one that knowledgeable to write a better driver for stuff like graphic cards
[14:39] <mctag> ikonia: ack. mdadm has a lot of bugtraqs   the last time i wiped the drives to get rid of the prob.  takes a loooong time on 2 500 gb
[14:40] <dr-lee> time to take some bottles of anti sadness beer :((
[14:40] <ward__> mctag, i want 2.5terrabyte too!
[14:40] <ward__> lol
[14:40] <mctag> ward_ 2x 500
[14:40] <mctag> =-P
[14:40] <cwraig> murlidhar, ok there is a good chance that that is your tv card then, i have never used tvtime but i have used xawtv to debug tvcard inputs, i would recommend installing that (sudo apt-get install xawtv) then running xawtv from the command line and see what comes up
[14:41] <cwraig> ne2k__, yea i suppose the question was about firewalls so i should have been more specific
[14:41] <tony_> irc.freenode.org/vbox
[14:41] <mctag> ward_ : 1 tb is still too expensive here
[14:41] <murlidhar> cwraig: ok i will install it right now
[14:41] <dr-lee> thanks and cu !
[14:41] <dr-lee> bye
[14:41] <ward__> mctag, aaah lol still thats a lot, i have 580GB, but on the other hand i have 2 WD 10000rpm raptors :D
